Trump Administration 'Gender' Definition Memo Sends Liberals Screaming
The memo, reported by the New York Times, would allow the Trump administration to define gender based on science, and a 'biological basis.'

A Department of Health and Human Services memo has enrages the left as it would define gender based on biological science.
SIGN up for conservative daily post news alerts
The Trump administration has reportedly proposed defining gender as male and female, on a biological basis. Many conservatives are hailing the rumor with acclaim after the previous administration pushed to allow men in women's bathrooms.
The New York Times allegedly obtained a memo by the Department of Health and Human Services that argues federal agencies should accept a gender definition that is based on a 'biological basis that is clear, grounded in science, objective and administrable."
"A series of decisions by the Obama administration loosened the legal concept of sex in federal programs, including in education and health care, recognizing sex largely as an individual's choice — and prompting fights over bathrooms, dormitories, single-sex programs and other arenas where gender was once seen as a simple concept," the Times explained.
The new proposal would define gender based on science, and help stop the rash of crimes created by the Obama administration's acceptance of what was then considered, and still is by many, a mental disorder by leading experts.
"Sex means a person's status as male or female based on immutable biological traits identifiable by or before birth," the memo reportedly reads. "The sex listed on a person's birth certificate, as originally issued, shall constitute definitive proof of a person's sex unless rebutted by reliable genetic evidence."
BizPac Review wrote, "While left-wing corporations such as Target would still be allowed to maintain so-called "transgender bathrooms" were this rule implemented, there would nevertheless at least be a federal standard in place guiding the rest of society toward the correct definition."
"Moreover, the implementation of this rule would prompt an immediate end to non-science-based transgender stipulations currently in place in schools, prisons and homeless shelters."
Two years ago, the Department of Housing and Urban Development ordered that transgender men could use, sleep at and shower in women's homeless shelters. Likewise, transgender criminals were allowed to specify their prison according to their 'feelings' on gender.
The proposed rule could also put a halt to the transgender service members (like all… 3 of them?), undoing the Obama administration's change in military policy.
In addition to the medical costs of providing sex-change surgery for transgender personnel, Defense Secretary James Mattis told the president in February that there are "substantial risks" connected to allowing people with gender dysphoria to serve in the military, and such a practice "could undermine readiness [and] disrupt unit cohesion."
The news has stirred the left. Twitter was alive with couch warriors blasting the possible change today.
However, a large portion of the population is sick and tired of hearing about horrific crimes that were made possible by Obama's whim, and think that the proposed change would be a benefit, not a harm to the safety and sanity of America.

I'm outraged about unethical and environmentally irresponsible Canadian mining in Latin America, and particularly Colombia. So I'm looking forward to donating interpreting at the screening and discussion of Crude Gold here in Toronto on Thursday at 7 pm at Beit Zatoun (612 Markham) (full info here).
This documentary pulls together four shorts profiling people in Colombia resisting Canadian mining. I've seen one of them and it was fantastic. I'm looking forward to seeing them all together.


Our farming revolves around the organic cultivation of grapes, from which we produce 5 wines (three DOC Valcalepio, one DOC Terre del Colleoni and one IGT Bergamasca), along with 3 grappas of Valcalepio in the basic, refined and aged versions. The production currently includes our great sparkling wine Champenoise method and the new line of wines called Vite Natural Durante. Along with these, our excellent Valcalepio Passito from Cabernet sauvignon grapes is produced.
Alongside the wines, fruit trees have recently been planted and a kitchen garden created with greenhouses. Maize and wheat flour are obtained in alternate years from our fields in rotation, again farmed organically, and nomad bees, on the edges of our vineyards and the woods of chestnut and robinia trees, give a quality honey.
In addition to the agricultural products, we have some sheep, lambs and poultry which feed peacefully in the vineyards, at least as long as the growth of the vines allows!
This completely natural system then appears on the table with the wholesome food, produced without forcing and with an unmistakable flavour, which is offered with creativity in our organic restaurant.
We aim to have a complete cycle between plants and animals which are self-feeding and grow in perfect symbiosis and balance.
We are deeply attached to the concept of offering hospitality in close contact with nature and the farm activities. What we offer in the restaurant starts from our produce (or local produce) which from the soil arrive directly on the table without travelling for miles and miles. This offer is completed by the possibility of a stay in complete relaxation and well-being for an all-round experience in contact with nature.
However, we have also tried to offer all this in a "different" way of farm holidays. A "different" way that pays attention to details, that offers a cordial but also professional service to clients, that makes guests feel at home, but surrounded by a world that is still uncontaminated, near the city and very near to the sky!

PERSONAL COMPUTERS, smartphones, and digital music players might well exist if Steve Jobs had never begun tinkering in his parents' California garage in the 1970s, but they wouldn't have developed so rapidly, so beautifully, and with so much thought to their users. Without Jobs, who died of cancer at 56 Wednesday, the technologies we love would lack almost everything we love about them.
Never has the passing of a Fortune 500 CEO been met with the fervor usually reserved for the deaths of revered heads of state or beloved celebrities. The outpouring of public grief — not just through tweets and Facebook posts, but also through flowers and candles left at Apple retail stores around the world — was startling. But then again, it wasn't: Jobs helped make the advance of consumer technology the defining force of an era and, more than anyone else, changed the way we interact with each other in our day-to-day lives.
Although it was certainly bittersweet, the best proof of his transformative influence came late Wednesday night, as millions of people learned of his passing via the very devices — iPhones, iPads, and Apple personal computers — he had ushered into existence.
"A lot of times,'' he once said, "people don't know what they want until you show it to them.'' This might have been arrogance, but it was also the truth. Jobs built Apple Inc. on the world's eagerness to be dazzled — not by complicated feats of engineering but by elegance, simplicity, and usefulness. As the news of his death ricocheted around the Internet, and as his fans convened to mourn him, it only underscored his achievement in helping people get information and connect with one another at all times, wherever they are.

Kepaløg (Allium cepa) er en flerårig, urteagtig plante, som er tilpasset steppeforhold: både sommertørke og vinterkulde overlever den ved hjælp af sit løg. Arten kendes kun som en dyrket plante og omfatter mange varianter, der er vidt andvendte i madlavning, herunder det almindelige zittauerløg, rødløg og forårsløg.

Beskrivelse
Bladene er tyndvæggede rør, som er blågrønne med parallelle bladribber. I det andet vokseår dannes en bladløs, rørformet stængel, som skyder op fra midten af det underjordiske løg.

Blomstringen sker i juni-juli, hvor blomsterne findes i en endestillet, kugleformet skærm. De enkelte blomster er regelmæssige og 3-tallige med to rækker grønligthvide blosterblade. Denne art danner ikke yngleknopper i blomsterstanden. Frugterne er kapsler med sorte frø.

Rodnettet består af en skiveagtig stængel og et tæt bundt af grove trævlerødder.
Højde x bredde og årlig tilvækst: 0,50 x 0,15 m (50 x 15 cm/år), heri ikke medregnet den blomstrende stængel.

Voksested
Artens udbredelsesområde er ukendt, da den har været dyrket i Mellemøsten siden oldtiden. Den findes kun sjældent naturaliseret noget steds, men den trives bedst på tør, porøs og kalkholdig jord i fuld sol.

Varianter og hybrider
 Etageløg (Allium x proliferum) danner yngleknopper i stedet for blomster. Yngleknopperne kan danne stængler, som så igen bærer yngleknopper af 2. orden.
 Forårsløg (Allium cepa) – nyspirede planter uden løg.
 Skalotteløg (Allium cepa var. aggregatum).

Anvendelse
Kepaløg bruges i madlavningen overalt i verden. Se nærmere under løg.

Lugt
Alle dele af planten lugter af den svovlholdige aminosyre isoalliin, der især frigøres, når planten skæres igennem. Samtidig frigøres enzymet alliinase, der spalter aminosyren til bl.a. det slimhindeirriterende stof propanthial-s-oxid. Deraf tårerne, når man piller løg.

Games as Pleasure and Desire
Interviewed 2013. A discussion of the different ways of thinking about games.
Roles: #Founder #Educator #Writer #Game Designer
Credits: #DINER DASH
Tags: #Emotion
there are lots of ways of framing games. We can think of games as stories. We can think of them as, um, challenge and frustration. We - I think it's important to be able to think of them in terms of pleasure and desire as well. Um, sometimes when I'm working on a game I really think about what I'm doing is sculpting a player's sense of pleasure and desire. You're giving them short term, and medium, and long term goals. You're - you're trying to give them challenges to overcome that are - that are, you know, not too big and not too small. Um, you're trying to - to give them something which is going to, you know, want them to keep on playing. Games can be very experimental. They can be very, um, weird and unusual. But games are a little bit like cuisine, like cooking in the sense that a chef can be very experimental. They can make the, the oyster look a banana or whatever - whatever you want to do. But if it tastes like dirt, no one will eat it. Right, that there's - I'm not saying that there's one good taste, but there's - there's kind of a range and you can go outside of it. You can make something so spicy that no one is going to eat it, right, except for maybe a very, very tiny set of connoisseurs. Um, and in general even though you might have to do a lot of things with food and think about the cultural references that you're making and the aesthetics of the dining experience and the - the visuals of the plate that, you know, how it's presented, but - but it also has to taste good. And I think that games are similar. So, there's always a component of what we do where we are playing with a player's sense of desire. And I actually think that, um, you know, there's this interesting Jiro Dreams of Sushi. And he talks about how the, uh, a chef has to cultivate their palate. And that, yes, you can learn technique, but you also have to, um, have a palate that allows you to really, uh, differentiate the sort of subtleties of - of flavor. And I think that game designers need to cultivate their palate which is really their own libido. Their own sense of pleasure and desire. As you're playing your game and other games, you need to - you need to have your own sense of pleasure, and frustration, and challenge and - and excitement, become like a - a dousing rod for - for water, right. Like how - can you really be sensitive to when it's coming up, when it's coming down, why - why and how are you feeling at all of those moments. I think that's a really important sense for game designers to cultivate. So, yes, game designers you could say manipulate the player's pleasure, but to me it's, it's much less like a scientist with a lab coat and a check box doing some kind of behavioral study and it's much more like your own personal investigation of your own sense of pleasure and becoming sensitive to how it is that human beings feel things. And observing your players and seeing all the things that is happening with them. And you're sort of in a dance with your players as you're developing a game and play testing it, talking to them, why did they feel this way, why did they do it that way. You know, how - what would make them feel differently? What would give them, uh, a more narrow focused experience or - or perhaps instead a richer, broader palate of experiences for them to have. So, so, so, yes, pleasure is important, but for me it's a very intensely personal part of, uh, of the game. And, again, you can study behavior of psychology and - and use reinforcement schedules in - in where you drop, you know, resources in your games so players get them at a certain period of time. Those concepts can be useful, but, but you know, if - if they're useful at certain moments, but at other times you may need to abandon them and work in a more intuitive and personal way.

A Year of Uncertainty Ahead
By Les Shaver
While fundamentals could continue to deteriorate, apartment executives see investment opportunities.
Everyone knew that the apartment industry's 10-year run of growth would end. What no one could have predicted was that a global pandemic would thwart the unprecedented streak of rent growth.
As COVID's lockdowns closed retailers, restaurants, movie theaters, airlines, bars and many other businesses across the country, the layoffs, pay cuts and furloughs piled up. Owners and operators helped to bridge the gap through payment plans, waiving of fees and other creative strategies while government assistance in the form of The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act offered Americans a desperately needed income supplement to pay for rent and other essential items.
But those funds didn't last forever.
For the most part, the apartment industry has held up. But there were some signs that segments of the market began to struggle as the year came to a close.
Moody's Analytics REIS says national asking and effective rents had fallen by 1.8% and 1.9%, respectively, in the third quarter. That is the largest quarterly decline since 1999 when the company began publishing quarterly data.
As apartment executives turn the page from a dreadful 2020, they are hopeful that 2021 will be better, even if the U.S. is mired in a recession.
"Apartment renting tends to be stronger in downturns," says Diane Batayeh, CEO of Southfield, Mich.-based Village Green.
It's hard to know precisely how occupancies will shake out in 2021. But, for those apartment firms that aren't facing financial stress, 2021 could be a year of opportunity. They might be able to find more acquisitions and development opportunities than they've had in previous years. As the pandemic has driven the adoption of onsite technological upgrades, many executives expect to continue looking for ways to make their communities more efficient.
Weakening Fundamentals
Early on, 2020 looked like another in a string of healthy years for the apartment sector.
"Coming into the start of 2020 and through the first quarter, it looked to be a strong year of growth across the portfolio," says Sue Ansel, President and CEO of Atlanta-based Gables Residential.
But the COVID stay-at-home orders hit during peak leasing season, traditionally when the industry has the greatest pricing power. "As a result of this and the various regulations put in place to address the pandemic, there was a strong downward impact on leasing and sales activities," Ansel says.
After problems in the spring, Ansel says the Gables portfolio hit normal seasonal levels of activities and is approximately 95% to 96% leased, and 94% occupied, similar to 2019's numbers. But because of the pandemic's early impact on sales, net operating incomes (NOI) will be well less than anticipated for the year.
"There is likely more pricing power in suburban submarkets than urban submarkets in general, but like all things, it is market-specific," Ansel says.
In his portfolio, David Schwartz, Chairman and CEO at Chicago-based Waterton, says that vacancies have moved up a bit and rent growth is "elusive."
"It's a typical recessionary environment with soft demand," says Schwartz. "But this recession is very market dependent. Some of these Sun Belt suburban markets are performing quite well. In the urban gateway markets, rents are going down with higher vacancy levels and lots of concessions. Collections and delinquencies are also more exacerbated."
Pinnacle's collections have been off slightly during the pandemic, but there haven't been dramatic problems, according to Rick Graf, President of Dallas-based Pinnacle and 2021 National Apartment Association (NAA) Chairman of the Board. Its occupancies have held steady. [Editor's note: Pinncle has rebranded as Cushman & Wakefield, with Graf serving as President of Multifamily.]
"I think the impact has not been as significant [as people expected], but the unknown is: What are the long-term implications?" Graf says. "I get a daily report of delinquency on every property. Every month seems to be the same or a little better than the month before."
While the pandemic hit some metros harder than others, and ongoing unemployment challenges, especially those in the service and hospitality industries, are having different impacts across apartment classes, Pinnacle hasn't experienced significant issues with rent payments, according to Graf. "If people aren't able to pay and they're COVID impacted, we've been working with them," Graf says.
Los Angeles-based TruAmerica Multifamily generally owns Class B workforce housing in first-ring suburbs in high-growth metros around the country. Noah E. Hochman, Co-Chief Investment Officer and Head of Capital Markets for the firm, says that it collected around 97% of its billable rent earlier in the pandemic. During the past couple of months, it has dropped a couple of basis points. Still, he says there has been rent growth in some Class B low-rise apartment communities.
However, there is a divergence depending on the state. In red states, with more liberal reopening policies, TruAmerica sees better collections and even some rent growth. In blue states, it's a different story.
"In markets like Seattle and Portland, because of the regulatory risks that exist with some of the extensions of eviction moratoriums or the inability to raise rents on renewals, we see more deterioration of the fundamentals," Hochman says.
Schwartz doesn't expect a massive improvement in rents in the year ahead.
"I think 2021 will look a lot like 2020 on fundamentals," Schwartz says. "We don't expect material improvement until vaccines are in place. Maybe toward the third or fourth quarters, we will see a more normalized economy and more demand, particularly in these urban markets."
Investment Opportunities Ahead
Despite questions about apartment fundamentals in 2021, many apartment investors are active and confident in the long-term.
"I think most investors see the COVID disruption as temporary," Hochman says. "Most people believe there will be a vaccine, and we'll get back to normal at some point, whether it's six months or 12 months from now. The bottom line in multifamily is, COVID or not, the fundamentals won't change. There has been a housing shortage and we have an affordability issue. That doesn't go away because of COVID."
TruAmerica has backed up that confidence by continuing to be an active buyer during the pandemic and is on target to reach its investment goals for the year, with the majority of the purchases made since the pandemic began. When COVID hit, transactions ground to a halt and prices fell 5% to 10%. After the capital markets stabilized, cap rates returned to pre-COVID levels, according to Hochman.
"We started seeing over the summer that the capital markets calmed down, and Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, in particular, really stepped up to provide the liquidity in the market," Hochman says. "With interest rates at historic lows, people were able to borrow in the 2% range."
Interest rates should remain low in 2021, encouraging investors to make deals, even if NOI is sluggish.
"Pricing in the market for acquisitions currently seems to be quite strong," Ansel says. "We have several communities in the market for potential disposition and so far are seeing pre-COVID pricing in spite of declines in NOIs. The impact of the low cost of debt seems to be creating an aggressive buyer pool."
Waterton expects to be an active buyer if the pricing is right. "This is a downturn, and usually, downturns result in a good vintage of investments," Schwartz says. "So we expect to make acquisitions as we continue through the downturn."
These investment opportunities often arrive in the form of distressed investments. The jury is still out on how much distress the apartment industry will experience during the COVID crisis.
Pinnacle is taking over some projects that have moved into special servicing. Graf sees specific properties running into issues.
"We've taken on a couple of receiverships in the last month or two," Graf says. "Most of those have been connected with a mixed-use situation where the commercial piece of it is struggling," Graf says. "The multifamily piece is not struggling as much, but they're connected."
While Hochman says prices have settled in suburban markets, it's a different story in the city. Buyers and sellers have differing ideas of what an apartment community is worth.
"In some of these urban gateway markets, there have been very few post-COVID transactions," Schwartz says. "I would suspect it's due to a large bid-ask spread. So I think we'll see more of that price discovery next year, which will help the investment environment for groups like ourselves."
Schwartz thinks Sun Belt suburban markets like Charlotte, Raleigh and Atlanta offer opportunity. "I think those could be reasonably performing markets where there's not the distress, but it's a good investment," he says.
As Gables puts some assets on the market, it is finding opportunities to refill its development pipeline, which could mean more construction in 2021. Ansel expects that when these projects deliver the "markets should be in a period of strong recovery."
"While debt is at historically low rates, construction financing has become more difficult to place," Ansel says. "And while equity is still available, pricing and terms have increased in reaction to perceived increased risks. These uncertainties have created opportunities for some development projects to come back to market."
Onsite Upgrades
COVID hasn't just accelerated the trend of people moving out of cities. It has also hastened the adoption of technology.
"Our [owners] have been more than willing to invest in new technologies or accelerate that, whereas before they might've been a little slower to do that in the past," Graf says. "I think COVID has moved the technology curve ahead in our business by at least five to maybe seven years."
Graf was experimenting in New York City and some other major metros before COVID. "Instantly, we went full tilt boogie on virtual tours," he said.
Schwartz saw the same momentum.
"The trend of virtual leasing is something that started pre-COVID," Schwartz says. "COVID accelerated it, and a lot of companies, like ourselves, made significant investments and will continue to make that a better, more streamlined process and beneficial to our customers."
Waterton also looked at other technologies before the pandemic hit, like destination-based elevators that don't require touch. These could grow more popular in the future.
As residents have worked from home during the pandemic, they've used more bandwidth and put more stress on maintenance. Expect that to continue in the year ahead.
"There are a couple of technology tools that we're adopting that enable us to boost bandwidth without a significant investment," Graf says. "The reality is that long-term, more people will be working from home and spending more time in their apartment. So, therefore, maintenance needs, technology needs and social interaction needs have changed."
Schwartz says Waterton will continue to make technological and innovation investments to make its properties more efficient.
"The smart apartment technology is really interesting," Schwartz says. "Some of that includes automated lock systems. Some of that is also incorporated with more energy efficiency, like thermostats and leak detection."
Still, there are limits to technology. While 2020 has shown that virtual leasing and apps have a place, a property cannot run without people.
"I still am a strong believer that you cannot replace human touchpoints," Batayeh says.

HK records steepest retail sales slump as unrewrist band colorsst persists
V Festival 2012 Will Return With New Enthusiasm Sun-kissed beaches, pleasant weather, friendly people, interesting events, amusement parks, museums, greenery and picturesque views! Isn"t that enough to beckon you to San Diego. A large number of tourists come to San Diego in the month of October. Reasons being pleasant weather, hosts of fascinating events and plenty of fun activities and great places to relax! The band has also toured states like New Jersey, New York and even toured with the South by Southwest (SXSW) film and festival wristbands in Austin, Texas. A family cookout at home, block party or picnic at the Peaks of Otter is how many families will spend Labor Day. Gathering with family and friends is always a great sport wristbands way to spend time together. Summary: Vans Warped Tour definitely peaks the summer festivals with a staggering 63 acts signed up to perform at Invesco Field. Tickets are still available, and they are general admission prices. Since this festival has more bands packed into one day, I would suggest staying up to date on the main website, and getting a schedule as soon as possible. Choose the bands you simply must-see, and plan out the day before you hit the road, this will ensure a better experience. My first sales were at TAMUCC at a small open art festival event wristbands. Very low-key but sold all my little ink drawings and cards I created for 5 bucks a pop I was stoked... being a poor college woman. Word of mouth is effective and I have enhanced this with having professional business cards to help with referrals. Thanksgiving Day is celebrated on the 4th Thursday every November. It is usually a family & friends day, then sharing the things you"ve been thankful for the year. Wristbands can come into play as well on this special day by giving your loved ones some silicone wristbands that says "Thank you" or "Thank you God, I"m grateful", and you bet to see the smiles on their faces. What could be better than an evening of free entertainment and an event that helps to support a great cause? Spend an evening out with friends at the unique and friendly Rock Dog Music Festival. Those who attend can expect both good music and good times.

The city"s struggling retail sector sees no light at the end of the tunnel as almost six months of violent protests continued to grip the city, with the government announcing the worst slump in retail sales for a single month.
Retail sales value was down by 24.4 percent in October year-on-year, widening from a loss of 18.3 percent in September and 23 percent in August.
For the first 10 months of 2019, total retail sales have declined by 9 percent compared with the same period last year, according to the Census and Statistics Department.
In a press release issued on Monday, a government spokesman said retail sales in October marked the steepest year-on-year decline on record, even worse than figures in September 1998 during the Asian financial crisis.
Hit hard by almost six months of violent protests stemming from the extradition bill incident, the city"s tourism sector was bracing for more than 50 percent drop in visitor arrivals, with the unemployment rate in the catering sector hitting up to 6.1 percent, the city"s finance chief warned earlier on Monday.
Hailed as one of the pillars of Hong Kong"s economy, the tourism sector employed more than 250,000 people and accounted for 6.7 percent of total employment. But over the third quarter of the year, overall visitor arrivals to the city tumbled by 26 percent from a year earlier to 11.9 million, marking the sharpest year-on-year fall since the second quarter of 2003.
Visitor arrivals in October dropped by more than 40 percent.
Things will get even worse in November, as the tourism industry remains on pace to brace for over 50 percent fall of visitor arrivals, said Paul Chan Mo-Po.
Forty countries or regions have so far issued alerts or advices on traveling to Hong Kong.
"The major culprit is the ongoing waves of violent crashes," said the financial secretary. "If we want to have the travel alerts or advisory lifted, what matters is to stop violence and restore social order."
The hotel sector didn"t fare any better either. Average hotel room occupancy rate dropped all the way from 91 percent a year earlier to 72 percent in the third quarter of 2019.
During the August-October period, the unemployment rate in food and beverage services sector rose sharply to 6.1 percent from 4.3 percent in the second quarter, marking the highest in more than six years. Compared with the second quarter, the number of employees in the sector decreased by around 47,000.
"The winter is coming," warned Chan.
To bail out struggling businesses, the government is studying on fresh stimulus measures, which it will reveal when the time is ripe, he said.
Also on Monday, Li Ka Shing Foundation said it will dispatch HK$900 million out of a HK$1-billion donation it had pledged earlier to applicants across catering, retail, tourism sectors as well as street peddlers and vendors in 60 days.
The remaining HK$100 million will be distributed among eligible applicants who did not receive any fund during the first and the second batches of funding via an online random draw.
The three batches of "emergency cash" saw more than 43,000 applications, with nearly 27,000 small- and medium-sized enterprises and vendors expected to benefit from them.
As many as 1,584 licensed small and medium-sized travel agencies and 4,942 licensed vendors have applied for the third batch of funding.

Q: "We are finished" vs. "We have finished" Is "we are finished" grammatically correct? I thought it would be more correct to say "We have finished".

A: Saying I/we are finished implies that the person in question is in a state of being finished with some task. It is referring to the person and not specifically the task.
I/we have finished refers to the task itself being finished or complete, and perhaps the person has moved on to another task or is waiting for something to occur.

A: There is a difference in meaning, at least in idiomatic usage.
We have finished indicates that a task is complete.  We have no more to do.
We are finished is often used to convey a feeling such as we are doomed or we have lost.  There is nothing more that we are able to do.

Лівий шлуночок () — одна з чотирьох камер серця людини, в якій починається велике коло кровообігу. Кров, збагачена киснем, надходить в лівий шлуночок з лівого передсердя через мітральний клапан і закачується в аорту через аортальний клапан.

Форма
Лівий шлуночок довший і має більш яскраво виражену конусоподібну форму, ніж правий шлуночок. У поперечному розрізі він виглядає як овал, майже коло. Лівий шлуночок більше м'язистий, ніж правий, і його стінки товстіші, ніж у правого шлуночка у 3-6 разів, тому що він качає кров під тиском, більшим у п'ять разів.

Відділи
У порожнині лівого шлуночка, як і в порожнині правого, розрізняють два відділи: задній — власне порожнину шлуночка, і передній, що являє собою продовження вгору порожнини лівого шлуночка, ніби вивідний його канал.

Задній відділ порожнини шлуночка сполучається з порожниною лівого передсердя за допомогою лівого венозного отвору (ostium venosum sinistrum, sive ostium atrioventriculare), форма якого при розгляданні його з боку лівого передсердя більш округла, але вже на настільки, як у правому шлуночку.

Передній відділ порожнини лівого шлуночка — артеріальний конус (conus arteriosus) з'єднується артеріальним отвором (ostium arteriosum) з аортою. Артеріальний конус лівого шлуночка розташовується позаду артеріального конуса правого шлуночка і, піднімаючись вправо, перехрещує його.

New Study Shows Fish Are Ingesting Plastic at Higher Rates
Mar 08, 2021 3:01AM EST Oceans
The study identified chinook salmon as among the species of high concern that are frequently ingesting plastic.

Each year the amount of plastic swirling in ocean gyres and surfing the tide toward coastal beaches seems to increase. So too does the amount of plastic particles being consumed by fish — including species that help feed billions of people around the world.
A new study published in the journal Global Change Biology revealed that the rate of plastic consumption by marine fish has doubled in the last decade and is increasing by more than 2% a year.
The study also revealed new information about what species are most affected and where the risks are greatest.
The researchers did a global analysis of mounting studies of plastic pollution in the ocean and found data on plastic ingestion for 555 species of marine and estuarine fish. Their results showed that 386 fish species — two-thirds of all species — had ingested plastic. And of those, 210 were species that are commercially fished.
Not surprisingly, places with an abundance of plastic in surface waters, such as East Asia, led to a higher likelihood of plastic ingestion by fish.
But fish type and behavior, researchers found, also plays a role. Active predators — those at the top of the food chain, like members of the Sphyrnidae family, which includes hammerhead and bonnethead sharks — ingested the most plastic. Grazers and filter‐feeders consumed the least.

"Overall, the likelihood of plastic ingestion decreases with depth," the researchers found.
Although bioaccumulation of plastic and its associated chemicals can cause health problems, this isn't causing noticeable fish population problems — yet. The research revealed that the majority of the species they found to have ingested plastic remain abundant.
But at the same time, 35 species were listed as threatened or near threatened. Another 26 species are vulnerable to overfishing. The authors identified the blue shark, Atlantic bluefin tuna and chinook salmon as "species of high concern due to their threatened status, vulnerability to overfishing and frequent plastic ingestion."
Meanwhile the researchers found that three-quarters of commercially fished species ingested plastic, including ones common in recreational fisheries and aquaculture that "have the highest likelihood to be part of the supply chain." Common sole was found to be "most worrisome."
Even more troubling is that there's still a lot we don't know because some areas are better studied than others.
Some nearshore areas are among those where research is lacking. "Only four studies were conducted within the continental United States' Exclusive Economic Zone, despite more marine plastic originating from the United States than any other developed nation," the researchers wrote.
Oceanic gyres, those swirling eddies of plastic in the open ocean, are also a black hole when it comes to research. "We uncovered no studies from the Indian, South Atlantic or western North Pacific gyres though there is extensive knowledge of surface debris accumulation in these regions," they found. "Similarly, there was a paucity of data from high‐latitude seas and none from the Southern Ocean, even though the polar oceans are a sink for microplastic debris with new fisheries developing in these regions as ice retreats and climate changes."
By comparison, coastal waters — including estuaries — are well studied, as are the seas surrounding Europe. And they found a "recent flurry of studies" from East Asia.
Even with a growing amount of research, the scope and severity of the problem is likely still underestimated.
Filling in these knowledge gaps will be crucial to better understand the extent of the problem, but the researchers say we'll also need to study top predators more to learn how plastic bioaccumulates in the food chain and how these mobile predators may redistribute plastic across the ocean as they travel.
Little is known about how ingested plastic affects fish and marine ecosystems, and even less about how human health could be affected when plastic-eating fish end up on the dinner table.
"Current evidence for humans ingesting plastic directly from fish remains scant, but there is growing concern," the researchers wrote. "In particular, the continued aggregation and analysis of information on plastic ingestion by marine fish is vital as these data are inextricably linked to ecosystem and human health."

We're part of international outcry against Uganda's life-in-jail anti-homosexual law
Ugandan MPs pass life in jail anti-homosexual law
From the BBC website, December 20, 2013
Uganda's parliament has passed a bill to toughen the punishment for homosexual acts to include life imprisonment in some cases.
The anti-homosexuality bill also makes it a crime punishable by a prison sentence not to report gay people.
The prime minister opposed the vote, saying not enough MPs were present.
The bill has been condemned by world leaders since it was mooted in 2009 - US President Barack Obama called it "odious".
I am glad the parliament has voted against evil"
End Quote David Bahati MP
The BBC's Catherine Byaruhanga in Kampala says the government knows there will be an international outcry, which could see some countries suspend aid to the country.
She says that Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi might follow up on his complaints about a lack of quorum, while it remains to be seen whether President Yoweri Museveni will sign the bill into law.
The private member's bill originally proposed the death penalty for some offences, such as if a minor was involved or the perpetrator was HIV-positive, but this has been replaced with life in prison.
Miniskirt ban
The MP behind the bill, David Bahati, told the AFP news agency: "This is victory for Uganda. I am glad the parliament has voted against evil."
"Because we are a God-fearing nation, we value life in a holistic way. It is because of those values that members of parliament passed this bill regardless of what the outside world thinks," he said.
The bill also bans the promotion of homosexuality.
"I am officially illegal," Ugandan gay activist Frank Mugisha said after the vote.
The bill's supporters say it is needed to protect traditional family values, which they say are under attack from Western-inspired gay rights groups.
Its critics say the bill has been pushed by some US evangelical Christians.
Uganda is a socially conservative country and on Thursday passed an Anti-Pornography Bill, which bans miniskirts and sexually suggestive material such as some music videos.
Human rights activists say the bill highlights the intolerance and discrimination the gay community faces in Uganda.
One gay activist was killed in 2011, although the police denied he was targeted because of his sexuality.
Meanwhile a local newspaper has been condemned for publishing the names and addresses of people it said were gay.
Catherine Byaruhanga BBC News, Uganda
The introduction of this bill led Uganda to be called the worst place to be gay.
As parliament debated it, gay activists met in a suburb of the capital Kampala to work out their own plan. They say their lives are often in threat here because of intolerance.
First tabled in parliament back in 2009, the proposed law caused such an international backlash that it has languished in parliamentary bureaucracy up until now. It originally proposed a death sentence for certain homosexual acts but this was scrapped and punishment limited to life imprisonment.
Speaker Rebecca Kadaga has been instrumental in giving the bill a new lease of life. Last year she promised it as a "Christmas gift" to the country.
The challenge is enforcement. Authorities need to be able to gather evidence that shows someone has engaged in homosexuality. This is hard to prove and one of the reasons Uganda's current anti-gay legislation has been rarely enforced.
But once enacted the bill might give law enforcers extra motivation to tackle "homosexual crimes". This could lead to more arrests and intrusive medical exams.

Game Of Thrones Watch: Season 2, Episode 5 - The Ghost Of Harrenhal
Jesse Carp
I have read all the books but nothing that we haven't seen in the television series will be discussed (same goes for the comments folks). And in that vein, I won't be speculating as to what may happen to any of the conflicts, characters and/or narrative threads (like other series I've recapped), instead only what has been shot, set-up and/or suggested in each show as well as how skillfully (or not) it has been brought to the small screen. And to that effect...
"No, my Lord. Anyone can be killed."
Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? Sorry, bad The Shadow joke but we all remember the end of "Garden Of Bones", right? I mean, how could one forget the image of Melisandre birthing the shadow? In many ways, it was quite smart to end last week with that image, not only because it was shocking and served as a nice cliffhanger, but also to give the audience a little time to digest and ready for more fantastical elements. It was probably also a good idea not to instantly compound the magical craziness with the loss of a major character. However, you could argue that Renly's death would have been better served at the end of an episode than at the beginning because, in this case, it made the rest of "The Ghost Of Harrenhal" feel a little anti-climactic.
And the episode may be called "The Ghost Of Harrenhal" but that location is merely one of the many, many places that HBO's fantasy series took us during the course of the show. Too bad being whisked away to almost every single place currently in play in the second season of Game of Thrones afforded little time to actually, well, really develop all (or any) of the threads. And, although I've been preaching the importance of every second for telling such a sprawling tale, "TGhoH" felt rushed to the point where the emotional beats didn't feel fully earned. A satisfactory episode if not entirely satisfying after the jaw dropper that preceded it, "The Ghost of Harrenhal" perhaps moved too fast and too much for its own good.
"You can't avenge him from the grave."
"TGoH" opens with Cat and King Renly discussing the terms of a possible truce between the Starks and Baratheons, them being natural allies and all, when suddenly the 'Shadow' slithers in and slays the King. Of course, when the soldiers arrive all they see are Cat and the now dead Renly in Brienne's arms. I said it before, but I don't think that Gwendoline Christie can keep up with the rest of the group in term of her acting but she sure is a physical specimen. Brienne makes quick work of the accusing guards and Cat convinces her to flee by using the prevailing theme of this thread - you can't get revenge if you're dead. The same sentiment is reinforced between the pair of Ladies (sorry, Brienne hates that), later when she swears her fealty to Lady Stark as long as it doesn't stop her from avenging Renly and gutting Stannis. Also looking to gut Stannis is Ser Loras, but Margaery and Littlefinger are able to convince him to flee with basically the same speech (you dead, no revenge). I love Natalie Dormer's Margaery. She's fascinating, and dangerous when paired with Littlefinger.
Not far from Renly's camp, or should I say the scene of the crime, King Stannis and Ser Davos get into a bit of a heated exchange, well, as heated as Davos' devotion will allow. The Onion Knight is clearly not all that keen on using Melisandre's, uh, talents to fight the upcoming war against the Lannisters. Stannis counters by pointing out how they wouldn't have Renly's forces at their back if it weren't for the Red Woman and yet, Davos continues, using the words of Stannis' former (failed) maester as his reasoning. He warns service means telling hard truths and that even if Stannis were to win, it would become Melisandre's victory. Shockingly, the King listens to Davos' advice and agrees to leave her behind as they sail to Kings Landing... but they sail with Davos leading the attack into Blackwater Bay because hard truths cut both ways. So, from the Storm Lands, Cat and Brienne flee north to Winterfell and Stannis sets his sights, and ships, on the capitol.
"The allies we need are in Westeros, not Qarth."
Across the Narrow Sea, Danaerys is just hearing of Robert's death now, so don't expect word of Renly to cross the water anytime soon. But before she learns all about the fighting in Westeros or is proposed to by Xaro, she first has an inconsequential frolic in her new fancy quarters. Her dragons have learned to feast, and fans complaining of lack of the flying fire breathers are sated, while we have to endure some odd quarrel between handmaidens.
Later, at an extravagant party, Xaro shows off his impenetrable safe before asking for her hand in marriage and promising her Westeros. Of course, Jorah is not happy with Dany getting outside male council, especially from a potential husband, and he's able to convince the Khalessi that the best route is to go it alone. It seems their short time in Qarth may be coming to an end, so what lies ahead for Dany and her advisor? And what was up with the masked lady in the courtyard grabbing Jorah's ear? She seems to have Dany's well-being at heart but how can you trust someone in a mask? Oh right, Batman.
"They're all Iron Islanders, they do as they're told or they do as they like."
And if we're talking about trust, there is no better place to turn than Theon Turncloak and the Iron Islands. No masks there, just betrayal! As the newly appointed Captain of the Seabitch, Theon has a little trouble reigning in his crew, treating him like a little kid and fueling his fatal flaw of always feeling inadequate. Thanks, Balon. After Yara shows up for no reason except to shame him goodbye, Dagmer Cleftjaw also feeds into his feelings of inadequacy but at least his first mate is steering him towards shameful glory (and is played by Ralph 'Finchy' Ineson). The new plan will gain the respect of all those Theon aims to please. Well, except the Starks, who are sure to continue this week's theme of vengeance once they hear about this attack on Tohhren's Square.
"I dreamt that the sea came to Winterfell. I saw waves crashing against the gates. And the water came flowing over the walls. Flooded the castle. Drowned men were floating here, in the yard." Winterfell
It seems like forever since we've visited Winterfell. And our last visit, two episode's ago, was not much more than a wolf's dream but this time we get to see Bran in action. Rickon continues to misbehave (this time in the form of cracking nuts? oh kids...) while Bran plays the role of the Lord perfectly. He is smart, kind and just, offering aid to the commoners seeking help. When he hears the misinformation that some rogue band of Lannisters has invaded Tohhren's Square, he immediately sends his own castellan and 200 men to protect his banner men. Too bad this Young Wolf doesn't put more stock in his dreams because they are certainly more telling than Maester Luwin knows or Osha will admit because we know the Kraken, or sea, is coming. And winter. Always with the winter.
"I think they were afraid. I think they came here to get away from something. And I don't think it worked." Beyond the Wall
North of the Wall, Jon Snow and the Lord Commander discuss the only new character we meet this week, legendary ranger Qhorin Halfhand. The location they arrive at is also another important spot for readers and Sam quickly shares some of the importance of the Fist of the First Men. Sam's mood has certainly improved since meeting Gilly but I'm with comic relief Dolorous Edd, love is annoying. Jon quickly cuts through the comedy, adding an ominous note to the end of the first scene.
Soon, the Halfhand himself appears and it seems Jon's legend is also becoming well known. The Halfhand's says that since the wildlings are becoming more like the Night's Watch, in turn, the Black should go all wildling. The plan starts with Jon, the Halfhand and a few others being sent to take out wilding scouts. Jon is becoming increasingly more badass (and like his father) as the season progresses, and it's exciting to see him get his first mission as a Ranger. But what's out there in all that white?
"The contents of this room could lay Kings Landing low, you won't be making wildfire for my sister any longer. You'll be making it for me."
Tyrion is also on a mission and is our steady tour guide throughout this week's three visits to Kings Landing. First, and thankfully, we're met with the return of Cersei as she and her brother try to discuss Joffrey's preparations for war. And by try to discuss, I mean Cersei relishes every second of being able to deny Tyrion this information. Of course, Tyrion is too clever for her (everyone) and obtains all he news from Lancel, even if it is boring. Praising Peter Dinklage (a great band name) at this point seems just as boring but the man deserves all of it. He is truly a pleasure to watch and even more so when paired with Bronn. They really should have that sitcom.
The two take in a show at the local soapbox where Tyrion learns that the people not only hate the King, and he has no quarrel with that, but that they also think he's behind it all. Tyrion does take issue here since he's trying to help them and also doesn't appreciate the moniker 'Demon Monkey.' Lastly, the two drop in on the Pyromancer to check about all this wildfire that King Joffrey intends to use against the inevitable attack from his 'uncle' Stannis. While Bronn warns against its use and seems logical, "men win wars, not magic tricks," he's a little undercut by the fact that we know this statement to be false thanks to Melisandre's baby. What is really interesting though is the way magic and fantasy are bleeding there way into the series. No longer are wars won by numbers. Any war can win. Anyone can die. So what lies ahead for the Lions and Flaming Stags?
"You stole three deaths from the Red God, we have to give them back. Speak three names and the man will do the rest."
Once again of the finest acting of the week comes from Harrenhal and Arya's Maisie Williams. This time the young actor is paired with Charles Dance and not only does she hold her own, but she steals the scene out from under Tywin Lannister. I think the sequence with our 'Ghost' was probably the most engaging of the episode and the only real moment when I perked up out of my seat. Tywin Lannister inquiring into the life of his cupbearer, this 'Girl', who happens to be the younger sister of his latest, albeit well respected enemy. She exits the 'war room' to fetch Lord Tywin some water and runs into the mysterious Jaqen H'Ghar, who has now been given a position amongst the Lannister men.
However, uh, the Man does not forget the kindness that Arya, uh, the Girl, showed him and neither does the Red God. Is this the same Red God that the Priestess Melisandre worships? I'm asking rhetorically, don't spoil! Either way, his character is totally rad, one of the most compelling in Game of Thrones so far and only another reason why Arya's thread is the most rewarding. And "TGoH" ends back at Harrenhal for a brief tag. Arya is busy offering a shirtless Gendry some sword fighting, sorry, needlework advice before a scream reveals a dead 'Tickler,' just as Arya requested of Jaqen. I think the eye touch means, 'one down, two to go' and when Arya smiles, you can see she's getting more cold blooded. Not that everyone in her prayer doesn't deserve it. One down, two to go.
"Someone who can and sure rule, centuries come and go without a person like that coming into the world."
This week's episode of GoT was as briskly paced a show as you're like to find and more than ever the HBO's fantasy seemed stretched too thin. There are just too many characters and locations to visit in less than an hour of television and, not for lack of trying but even "The Ghost Of Harrenhal" still didn't get to them all. No Robb or Jaime in the Westerlands and, if you've been reading along (so probably not), their scene together in the premiere is probably still my favorite of the second season. We haven't seen Jaime in ages! And we barely got any Cersei and no Joffrey. The Romans were on to something with the Coliseum, we want to see lions. More Lannisters!
Or just more Game of Thrones? The series would definitely benefit from expanding the episode length to 90 minutes. It works for BBC's Sherlock (a series with only two main characters) and if there's one thing thing that fans of the series certainly wouldn't mind, it would more "Ice and Fire." As it stands the quick pitstops are not always entirely satisfying and certainly not the best way to tell this epic tale. How can the writers build anything of worth if there isn't time spent in the construction? And how can you stay invested in characters and conflicts when you haven't seen them in weeks?
It's a difficult task for D.B. Weiss and David Benioff and one that they have handled quite well most of the time. And even most of this episode but "The Ghost Of Harrenhal" tries so hard to advance almost all of the story lines in one sitting that this week's Game of Thrones felt a bit like just moving pieces into place. Kind of a dry week for Westeros (oh, and Qarth). And no, not just because it didn't have any nudity... there was still blood. This season is the "Clash of Kings" and last night five crowns became four. 5 episodes remain and a war is still happening while another brews. Well, at least one.
Game of Thrones returns with Episode 6, "The Old Gods and the New," next Sunday at 9 p.m. ET on HBO. It stars Kit Harrington, Emelia Clarke, Lena Headey, Peter Dinklage, and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. The show was created by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, based on the "Song of Ice and Fire" saga by George R.R. Martin.

Increase SEO Potential on WordPress Today With These Three Plugins
0 comments, 12/07/2014, by Pingler, in Plugins and Tools, SEO, Web Design
Now comprising one out of every four websites on the internet, WordPress has gone from a simple blogging tool to a powerful content management system in under a decade. The single most common platform through which to build an online business, website or blog, WordPress comes packed with tons of features and access to tens of thousands of plugins that help webmasters and bloggers do just about anything they can imagine. Recent versions of WordPress are designed to make SEO an easy task from the get-go, but with so many websites now having access to the same tools, you may want to go above and beyond the competition and/or default settings. Below, we'll discuss three great WordPress plugins that you can use to boost SEO potential immediately.
One great plugin, WordPress SEO by Yoast, combines an array of features that make optimizing your pages and posts simpler than you could have ever imagined. With a free version available, users can quickly edit meta descriptions, titles of pages, configure keywords to ensure proper distribution and density, integrate a variety of programs such as Google Webmaster Tools, and several other solutions to ensure that you are pinging links with the best of them. Any existing SEO plugins you may be using can have the data imported to WordPress SEO, allowing you to move any and all meta data or page titles to it. A paid version of this plugin is also available, which currently costs $89 for one site. There are no substantially different features with the paid version; rather, it's a way for those who want to support the project to be able to give back.
Simple Share Buttons
The Simple Share Buttons Adder plugin is a dream come true for those who quickly want to be able to integrate social sharing options to each piece of content – or even individual, static elements – on a website or blog. This free plugin not only allows you to add sharing buttons in a jiffy, but also provides the ability to customize the buttons with a set of default icons that can be colored. You'll even be able to upload your own custom graphics, in the event you want to combine the social platform's look with your own brand in button form. While the plugin refers to buttons, you can also configure them to be displayed as ribbons and squares.
W3 Total Cache
The final app on our list can be a great way to ensure that your site is optimized for search engines, pinging links aplenty and makes accessibility a top concern. W3 Total Cache is designed to drastically improve the site loading speed on WordPress installations that tend to run slower. In some cases, the theme in use may be affecting this (many reported speed issues with the Twenty Fourteen WP theme when it was first released, for instance), while other speed issues may arise from hosting problems. This is a free app and widely compatible, but we do recommend checking with your hosting company prior, since some companies provide a similar integrated solution that may cause complications when used alongside W3 Total Cache.

Virgin Australia launches new brand platform on nation's biggest stage
Virgin Australia has today unveiled its new brand platform in front of more than four million Australians on the nation's biggest stage; the 2017 Toyota AFL Grand Final.
This is the first campaign Virgin Australia has launched with DDB Sydney as the airline's advertising agency and it will roll out across digital, outdoor, magazines, print, social media and radio.
Virgin Australia Chief Marketing Officer Inese Kingsmill said: "Our new brand platform, 'Here's to looking Up', recognises the evolution of Virgin Australia and captures the spirit and values of our people and our guests.
"Our people are renowned for their positive energy and can-do attitude, so in developing our new brand direction, we wanted to encapsulate this spirit that makes Virgin Australia unique.
"We couldn't find the right word to embody our belief so in true Virgin Australia style, we created a word that we call 'Uptimism'.
"We believe that a positive and optimistic approach can open up a world of opportunities and we want this essence to shine through in our guests' travel experiences. At a time when there is much uncertainly in the world, we believe that even when times are tough, a positive attitude helps achieve better outcomes," said Mrs Kingsmill.
DDB Australia Chief Creative Officer Ben Welsh said: "Virgin as a brand is the embodiment of optimism.
"When you look at Virgin Australia's role in society in connecting people with opportunity and their belief in better, you can see how Uptimism felt right.
"Executionally, we wanted to capture the upbeat excitement of the brand," said Mr Welsh.
The TVC was filmed in various locations around Australia including the Blue Mountains and Richmond in Sydney, as well as the Melbourne CBD and airport precinct. It showcases people who have been identified as Uptimists, including 30-year-old rock-climber Andrea Hah from Ninja Warrior, 13-year-old up-and-coming AFL star Jack Peris, and GWS Giants players Adam Kennedy and Matt Buntine.
DDB Australia Chief Creative Officer Ben Welsh said: "The campaign also features Virgin Australia's award-winning crew and team members.
"They're unmistakable, unmissable and they embody the energy and style behind the brand - they are 'Uptimists' through and through," said Mr Welsh.
In an Australian-first, the Virgin Australia Fan Report was launched at the 2017 Toyota AFL Grand Final, created to gather live data about fan behaviour and demonstrate how it changes and influences a team's success. The results of the Virgin Australia Fan Report were tracked during the Channel 7 broadcast, as well as shared on both AFL and Virgin Australia social platforms.
Virgin Australia Chief Marketing Officer Inese Kingsmill said: "The Virgin Australia Fan Report was designed to determine how Uptimism can contribute to an AFL team winning a premiership.
"We have the ability to draw on live data such as noise levels, fan heart rate and colours in the stadium, tracking one team's fans versus the other. We are really excited about this innovative tool and it's just the tip of the iceberg in terms of measuring the influence Uptimism has on Australian culture," said Mrs Kingsmill.
As part of the brand platform launch, eligible Velocity Frequent Flyer members will also receive a personalised eDM detailing their history with the program. 'Your History of Up' is designed by CHE Proximity and highlights various milestones as a Velocity member, plus details about flights taken in the last 12 months including number of hours in the air, and their most popular destination.
Virgin Australia Chief Marketing Officer Inese Kingsmill said: "'This personalised communication for Velocity members is our way of saying thank you for their ongoing loyalty with Virgin Australia and our partners."

Q: How to call ajax only once I call function from this code :

2

My function is
function showNews()
{
        //other js which show block

        jQuery("#loader").show();

        //ajax which load content to block
        jQuery.ajax({
            type: "GET",
            url: link,
            dataType: "html",
            success: function(data) {
                jQuery('#top-info-news').html(data);
            },
            complete: function(){
                jQuery('#loader').hide();
            },
        });
}

How can I make only once ajax call? so when content is loaded and page was not refresed not to load ajax? I tried to do boolean variables but nothing, I suppouse it is because I call everytime function. Please give me an idea how to do.
thank you

A: When you want to do something on that event.
Identify when you have already loaded your data.
var loaded = false;

function showNews() {
    //other js which show block

    jQuery("#loader").show();

    if(loaded) return;

    //ajax which load content to block
    jQuery.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: link,
        dataType: "html",
        success: function(data) {
            jQuery('#top-info-news').html(data);
        },
        complete: function(){
            jQuery('#loader').hide();
        },
    });

    loaded = true;
}

Or use one. when you want to call it once.

jQuery('.showNews').one('click', function() {
    // your code
});

"Attach a handler to an event for the elements. The handler is executed at most once per element."
reference

A: Use the .one() function :

Attach a handler to an event for the elements. The handler is executed at most once per element.

I have added an id attribute to the anchor to allow an easier bind, but you could use $("#header-button-news a").one
$(document).ready(function () {
  $('#shownews').one('click', function (evt) {

    evt.preventDefault(); // prevent default click action

    jQuery("#loader").show();
    //ajax which load content to block
    jQuery.ajax({
      type: "GET",
      url: link,
      dataType: "html",
      success: function (data) {
        jQuery('#top-info-news').html(data);
      },
      complete: function () {
        jQuery('#loader').hide();
      },
    });
  });
});

Also used event.preventDefault() to prevent the default action on the anchor from being followed

A:

In JS:
$(function(){
    $('a#a_news').one('click',showNews);
})
