Supporting human rights defenders
Graphic: Human rights defenders in the Philippines
Human rights defenders are individuals, groups of people or organisations who legitimately seek to promote and protect human rights through peaceful and non-violent means.
Through their actions, they help uncover human rights violations, bring them to public attention and call for fair and just solutions. They can also work to empower individuals and communities to understand and claim their fundamental rights.
Because of their actions, human rights defenders face grave challenges in the countries in which they work. These can include harassment, detention, death threats and torture. People can be silenced by restrictive laws. Some have been disappeared or murdered. Women human rights defenders can be subjected to sexual violence.
The APF's 20th Annual Meeting included a special focus on the current challenges facing human rights defenders and the role of national human rights institutions (NHRIs) to promote and protect their rights.
Dr Sima Samar, Chairperson of the Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission, describes the challenges of protecting human rights and promoting accountability in a country "where there is no rule of law".
Stories from our members
In 1998, the United Nations adopted the Declaration on Human Rights Defenders. The document sets out the rights and protections necessary to support the vital work of human rights defenders. It also encourages governments to establish independent NHRIs to promote and protect human rights in their country.
NHRIs can also come under threat for the work they do to promote and protect human rights, in accordance with their legal mandate.
In many countries, NHRIs are under pressure. They are threatened, sometimes harassed and the most active are the most in danger.

In 2018, NHRIs from around the globe pledged to bolster their support for human rights defenders amidst a growing climate of threats and reprisals.
The Marrakech Declaration, adopted at the 13th International Conference of the Global Alliance of National Human Rights Institutions, set out a practical set of strategies to promote, protect and build cooperative partnerships with human rights defenders, including:
Establishing national protection systems, in consultation with human rights defenders, civil society organisations and others
Encouraging States to ratify all international human rights instruments, including the UN Declaration on Human Rights Defenders, and advising them on implementation
Monitoring and reporting on civic space – online and offline – by collecting and analysing disaggregated data and statistics, related to killings, fabricated legal charges, misuse of laws and other attacks against human rights defenders
Establishing efficient and robust early warning mechanisms and focal points within NHRIs
Promoting gender equality and developing strategies to combat all forms of discrimination against women human rights defenders
Interacting regularly with human rights defenders and civil society and helping to develop and strengthen national and regional defenders' networks
Interacting with international and regional human rights systems in support of human rights defenders, and monitoring the follow-up and implementation of recommendations.

Democrats Win, is a Blog post.
Democrats Win is also listed in: Current Events : Happenings : Politics : and Travel .
We just got back a week ago from a visit to Toronto, We were there during Thanksgiving and attended Thanksgiving dinner with the Democrats Abroad chapter in Toronto.Dinner was held at the George Brown College Ontario Hostelry Institute School of Hospitality.The students at the institute did all the work and provided a traditional Thanksgiving meal and were given a resounding round of applause for there work.In case your wondering how two visitors from Las Vegas got invited to attend this event, it was the result of the very political principle of "It's not what you know but who you know that counts."That is, the wife and I are the in-laws of the guest speeker for the event. That of course would be the University of Toronto Professor of Political Science, Dr. RenanLevine.Ok, so the Dems won the election. I look on this as a plus. Hopefully there will be changes in Washington, but I am not holding my breath. Most of the members of Congress (Republican AND Democrat) are millionaires and do not really understand the lives of ordinary Americans. None the less, things can not be any worse than they have been.
No more "Democrats Win" content.

Margaret (Peggy) Goldwater (1909–1985)
Margaret Goldwater advocated for birth control and reproductive rights in the United States during the twentieth century. Goldwater was a socialite and philanthropist and was married to Barry Goldwater, US Senator from Arizona. She spent much of her life working to further the women's reproductive rights movement, which sought to expand women's legal, social, and physical access to reproductive healthcare, including contraception and abortions.

Barry Morris Goldwater (1909–1998)
Barry Morris Goldwater was a Republican Arizona Senator and US presidential candidate in the twentieth-century whose policies supported the women's reproductive rights movement. Goldwater, a businessman and Air Force reservist, transitioned into politics in the 1950s. He helped align popular support for a conservative Republican Party in the 1960s. Throughout his life, he worked to maintain personal liberty and to limit governmental intrusion into citizens' private lives. Goldwater, influenced by his wife Margaret (Peggy) Goldwater, supported women's rights to abortions.

The Mother's Health Clinic of Phoenix (1937-1942)
The Mother's Health Clinic opened in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1937 and provided women in central Arizona with contraception and family planning resources. A group of wealthy philanthropic Phoenix women founded the clinic under the guidance of birth control activist Margaret Sanger. The clinic was the second birth control clinic to open in Arizona and the first to serve the central and northern Arizona residents.

Planned Parenthood Committee of Phoenix (1942-1978)
The Planned Parenthood Committee of Phoenix was established in 1942 to expand Arizona women's access to family planning resources. The Planned Parenthood Committee of Phoenix was formed through the merging of The Mother's Health Clinic in Phoenix, Arizona, with the national Planned Parenthood Federation of America. The clinic was primarily based within the Phoenix Memorial Hospital campus but expanded to other locations in the late 1960s.
Clinica Para Madres (1934-1950)
The Clinica Para Madres (Mother's Clinic) opened in Tucson, Arizona, in December of 1934 as the first birth control clinic in Arizona. After moving to Tucson, birth control activist Margaret Sanger, along with a group of local philanthropic women, founded the clinic to provide Arizona women with contraception. During the early 1900s in the US, contraception was illegal under the federal Comstock Act. Additionally, many viewed contraception and sex as obscene and not to be discussed in public or outside of marriage.
Margaret Higgins Sanger (1879-1966)
Margaret Higgins Sanger advocated for birth control in the United States and Europe during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although people used contraceptives prior to the twentieth century, in the US the 1873 Comstock Act made the distribution of information relating to the use of contraceptives illegal, and similar state-level Comstock laws also classified discussion and dissemination of contraceptives as illegal.

Jeter v. Mayo (2005)
In Jeter v. Mayo, the Court of Appeals of Arizona in 2005 held that a cryopreserved, three-day-old pre-embryo is not a person for purposes of Arizona's wrongful death statutes, and that the Arizona Legislature was best suited to decide whether to expand the law to include cryopreserved pre-embryos. The Court of Appeals affirmed a decision by the Maricopa County Superior Court to dismiss a couple's wrongful death claim after the Mayo Clinic (Mayo) allegedly lost or destroyed several of their cryopreserved pre-embryos.

Title X Family Planning Program (1970–1977)
The Family Planning Services and Public Research Act of 1970, often called Title X Family Planning Program, is a US federal law that provides federal funding for family planning services to low income or uninsured families. The US federal government passed the law, Public Law 91-572, in 1970 as an amendment to the Public Health Services Act of 1944. The Act created the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) under the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare (here called the Secretary).
Gattaca (1997)
Gattaca is a 1997 science fiction film produced in the US that depicts a future society that uses reproductive technology and genetic engineering in order to produce genetically enhanced human beings. By selectively choosing certain genes, scientists and physicians ensure that individuals born using reproductive technologies have desirable physical and psychological traits and prevent undesirable traits.

Planned Parenthood Center of Tucson, Inc., v. Marks (1972)
In the 1972 case Planned Parenthood Center of Tucson, Inc., v. Marks, the Arizona Court of Appeals required the Arizona Superior Court to rehear the case Planned Parenthood Association v. Nelson (1971) and issue a decision on the constitutionality of Arizona's abortion laws. In 1971, the Planned Parenthood Center of Tucson filed the case Planned Parenthood Association v. Nelson asking for the US District Court to rule on the constitutionality of the Arizona Revised Statutes 13-211, 13-212, and 13-213, which made it illegal for anyone to advertise, provide, or receive an abortion.

Skinner v. Oklahoma (1942)
In 1942, the United States Supreme Court Case of Skinner v. Oklahoma ruled that states could not legally sterilize those inmates of prisons deemed habitual criminals. Skinner v. Oklahoma was about the case of Jack Skinner, an inmate of the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester, Oklahoma, who was subject to sterilization under the Oklahoma Habitual Criminal Sterilization Act of 1935. The case, decided on 1 June 1942, determined that state laws were unconstitutional if those laws enabled states to forcibly sterilize inmates deemed to be habitual criminals.

Tucson Woman's Clinic v. Eden (2004)
The case Tucson Woman's Clinic v. Eden (2004) established that some of Arizona's abortion clinic laws violated physicians' and patients' rights to privacy, and it required those laws to be rewritten. The laws required most abortion providers to be licensed with the Arizona Department of Health Services and to submit to all the regulations the Department established for abortion clinics. The regulations allowed the state to search abortion clinics without warrants and to access patient records and ultrasound prints, among other provisions.
Isaacson v. Horne (2013)
In the 2013 case Isaacson v. Horne, the US Court of Appeals in the Ninth Circuit ruled that Arizona House Bill (HB) 2036, which prohibited abortions after twenty weeks of gestation, was unconstitutional. The Arizona State Legislature passed the law in 2012, which was then challenged by three physicians who filed a lawsuit against the state, arguing that the law violated women's constitutionally protected rights to abortions, rights that may only be infringed once fetuses are viable outside of the womb.
Simat Corp v. Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (2002)
In the 2002 case Simat Corp v. Arizona Health Care Containment System, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled that the Arizona Health Care Containment System must pay for abortions when they are necessary to preserve the health of pregnant women in the system. In the case, the Court ruled that the Arizona Revised Statutes 35-196.02 and the Arizona Health Care Containment System (AHCCCS) policies, which banned public funds from being used for abortions, were unconstitutional. AHCCCS is Arizona's Medicaid insurance system, which enables low-income residents to receive medical care.
Nelson v. Planned Parenthood Center of Tucson (1973)
The 1973 case Nelson v. Planned Parenthood Center of Tucson established the legality of abortion in Arizona. The Arizona Court of Appeals ruled that the Arizona Revised Statutes 13-211, 13-212, and 13-213, collectively called the Arizona abortion statutes, were unconstitutional. The statutes had made illegal receiving, providing, or advertising abortions. After the Arizona Appeals Court heard the case, it decided that the Arizona abortion statutes were constitutional. However, two weeks later the US Supreme Court decided in Roe v.
US Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program
In 1996, the US Congress mandated that the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) create and regulate the Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program. The program tests industrial and agricultural chemicals for hormonal impacts in humans and in wildlife that may disrupt organisms' endocrine systems. The endocrine system regulates the release of small amounts of chemical substances called hormones to keep the body functioning normally.

Forbes v. Napolitano (2000)
Forbes v. Napolitano (2000) was a US court case that established that Arizona researchers could use fetal tissues from induced abortions for basic scientific research, for instance, as a source of stem cells. The case challenged the constitutionality of the Arizona Revised Statute (ARS) 36-2303 in the Ninth Circuit US Court of Appeals, a law that banned researchers from using fetal tissues from abortions for any type of medical experimentation or investigation.

Ross Granville Harrison (1870-1959)
A pioneer in experimental embryology, Ross Granville Harrison made numerous discoveries that advanced biology. One of the most significant was his adaptation of the hanging drop method from bacteriology to carry out the first tissue culture. This method allowed for further studies in embryology as well as experimental improvements in oncology, virology, genetics, and a number of other fields.
Arthur Earl Walker (1907-1995)
Arthur Earl Walker was a medical researcher and physician who studied the brain and neurosurgery in the United States during the twentieth century. Walker examined the connections of the thalamus to the rest of the brain and how the thalamus coordinates sensory signals. The thalamus is a cluster of nerve cells located between the two hemispheres of the brain and it is responsible for consciousness and sensory interpretation.
The Effects of Gene Regulation on Aging in Caenorhabditis elegans (2003)
In 2003, molecular biology and genetics researchers Coleen T. Murphy, Steven A. McCarroll, Cornelia I. Bargmann, Andrew Fraser, Ravi S. Kamath, Julie Ahringer, Hao Li, and Cynthia Kenyon conducted an experiment that investigated the cellular aging in, Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) nematodes. The researchers investigated the interactions between the transcription factor DAF-16 and the genes that regulate the production of an insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1-like) protein related to the development, reproduction, and aging in C. elegans.

Julius von Sachs (1832-1897)
Julius von Sachs helped establish plant physiology through his experiments in latter nineteenth-century Germany. Sachs infused the inchoate discipline of plant physiology with experimental techniques and a mechanistic stance, both of which cemented his place as one of the discipline s founders. Sachs trained a generation of plant physiologists, and his stress on experimentation and mechanism influenced biologists in other disciplines, especially embryologist Jacques Loeb.
August Antonius Rauber (1841-1917)
August Antonius Rauber was an embryologist and anatomist who examined gastrulation in avian embryos. He examined the formation of the blastopore, epiblast, and primitive streak during chick development. Subsequent researchers have further studied Rauber's findings, which has led to new discoveries in embryology and developmental biology.

At meetings in every organization, you'll find two types of people: those who love to brainstorm ideas and derive energy from tangents and sidebars; and their counterparts, who prefer to listen and thoughtfully process conversations before formulating and sharing their opinions.
Extroverts are those outgoing and energetic personalities who enjoy working in groups and dive head-first into projects, according to the Myers & Briggs Foundation, which administers the popular personality test. Introverts, who are more reflective and reserved, often prefer to work independently.
For introverts, meetings can be cause for anxiety and worry over whether their thoughts and ideas will be heard, says Nancy Ancowitz, career coach and author of "Self-Promotion for Introverts."
Successfully navigating meetings as an introvert comes down to preparation, practice, and reflection, Ancowitz says. Here's what introverts can do before, during, and after meetings to ensure that their voices are heard.
Preparation is key to an introvert's success, particularly at meetings during which leaders bounce from topic to topic and interruptions are common, Ancowitz says. Because speaking spontaneously is difficult for introverts, take the time before a meeting to write down key points you want to make or questions you want to ask.
The physical process of writing them down will help you to organize your thoughts in an eloquent manner.
Because introverts may not be comfortable speaking on the spot and may lack confidence that they'll say the right thing, practicing what you'll say and how you'll say it is necessary, Ancowitz says.
Take those key statements or questions you prepared prior to the meeting and practice saying them aloud. This process will help cement your thoughts in your mind, which will make articulating them easier, she says.
Introverts loathe watching themselves speak, Ancowtiz says. (Actually, many people hate watching themselves speak.) Videoing yourself – no matter how painful – is a valuable exercise that gives you insight into how you're presenting yourself at meetings.
"You could be smiling internally, but externally you could come off standoffish."
Use your smartphone to video yourself making your prepared points or presenting on a topic and then review your mannerisms and expressions. When it's time for the meeting, you'll have a better understanding of how you present yourself.
Whether you're leading the meeting or attending it, establish guidelines, Ancowitz says. This will help keep the meeting on track, allowing you to make your contributions. This structure is important for introverts and manifests in two ways – through an agenda and ground rules.
If you're facilitating the meeting, create and disseminate talking points prior to its start. "While this is great advice for any meeting, it's especially useful for introverts because it lets them know that they'll have an opportunity to express what they've prepared," she says. If you're attending a meeting, ask the facilitator for an agenda, or offer to create one yourself to help the meeting stay on topic.
Whether or not you were able to speak your thoughts during the meeting, it's a good idea to follow up after with the key stakeholders, Ancowitz says. Send them an email that recaps what you said and anything you weren't able to express. This gives introverts the unrestricted time they prefer to think about and formulate their opinions.


According to PwC's Employee Financial Wellness Survey, money is one of the biggest causes of stress in the modern workplace. With 53% of employees stressed about their financial situation, there is no denying the importance of benefits that financially protect your workforce.
One of the main issues that arise when considering financial wellbeing benefits is the effect that age can have on the suitability of the benefits offered. The financial worries an individual may have can be affected by financial targets and where they are in life. For example, younger workers will have unique challenges such as housing and managing student debt. These are problems that are frequently ignored when providing a wider workforce with a financial wellbeing strategy.
Below, we explore three reflections that reward managers should think about when providing an employee benefit scheme to improve financial wellbeing across a multi-generational workforce.
Don't supply your employees with generalised benefit schemes. It's important to think of the individual differences that exist between different generations in the workplace as different groups of people are likely to have unique financial challenges that are only applicable to them. By offering personalised benefits, you can give your employees what they really need.
An example of this would be how younger workers have individual financial challenges such as buying their first home. This generation may be interested in investments and savings benefits which would allow them to save and get on the property ladder. In comparison, older generations may prefer benefits that are pension based. This is why it is important that you supply individual and personalised benefits in order to apply an effective financial wellbeing strategy to your business.
Many employees struggle to understand financial issues that may relate to them and often fail to make use of the benefits on offer in the workplace. This is especially true for younger individuals who are not sure about what their future may hold. You should improve your employees' financial wellbeing and provide them with the knowledge to make informed decisions. In fact, according to Barclays, one in five workers say they would value broader financial guidance from their employer.
Employee assistance programmes provide your employees with the opportunity to discuss financial worries with someone who is fully trained in offering sound financial support. They supply workers with direct and confidential contact with individuals who can support in areas such as financial management, which may be causing them emotional distress.
These programmes are highly beneficial in multi-generational workforces, as the finance professionals can offer specialist and financial support. Different groups of people are likely to need different information depending on their generation and what they are aiming for. Having an employee assistance programme in place means that different generations have access to professionals who can offer specialist wellbeing information.
There are many employee benefits that can be offered to employees through salary sacrifice. This is the process involved when an employee exchanges part of their salary in return for a particular benefit. This money is usually taken before tax, meaning there are substantial cost savings.
One of the main benefits to salary sacrifice schemes are that they work well across different workforces. They are offered on schemes such as pension contributions, cycle to work schemes and car leasing. This means that you can improve the financial wellbeing of your employees by offering less expensive benefits.
Salary sacrifice creates a financial benefit which can be combined on several schemes meaning there is something for everyone in your multi-generational workforce.
Regardless of generation, money is equal to security for most individuals. When your employees are not on top of their finances, it can cause them anxiety, stress and other wellbeing issues which may have an impact on their ability to function at work. Offer benefits that make your employees feel secure and rewarded, and you are likely to see an increase in employee productivity in the workplace.
At Busy Bees Benefits, we offer a variety of benefits that work to engage, protect and reward your workforce. To find more information about how Busy Bees Benefits can help you and your workforce, call us on 0330 333 9100 or email us at information@busybeesbenefits.com.


A building equipped with bathing facilities: a small structure containing rooms or lockers for bathers, as at the seaside.
premises equipped for washing the body with the simultaneous action of water and hot air (in Turkish and Roman baths) or steam (in Russian baths). In Russia, as in many other countries, bathhouses were widespread from ancient times; they are mentioned by the chronicler Nestor (11th century).
The construction of bathhouses in the USSR is carried out according to standard layouts accommodating 50–300 people in cities and 10–50 people in urban-type settlements and rural localities. Depending on their arrangement, bathhouses may be classified as ordinary, disinfection center type, or combination bathhouses; buildings furnished only with showers—known as shower baths—which are sometimes installed in summer pavilions, are also built. Modern bathhouses may have swimming pools, rooms for physical therapy, and disinfection chambers. So-called steam rooms, in which the temperature reaches 40–50° C and the relative humidity is 90 percent, are also widespread. In some bathhouses there are separate rooms with dry heat. The layout of a bathhouse depends on its purpose.
In bathhouses of the disinfection center type, which are intended for sanitary processing, the bathers' dirty clothes are disinfected and clean underwear is issued. During the Great Patriotic War bath trains, dugout baths, and portable shower installations were widespread.
In determining the size of a bathhouse, the space needed for one person is computed as 0.35 sq m for the cloakroom and vestibule, 0.75 sq m for the waiting and cooling-off rooms, 1.3–1.4 sq m for the dressing rooms, 2.25–2.40 sq m for the soaping rooms, 3.5 sq m for the showers, and 6 sq m for the steam rooms. Not less than 150 liters of water are used per person in the bathhouse; the shower facilities use 400–600 liters per hour; a bath with a shower requires 550 liters per hour.
Washing in the bathhouse affects the whole organism. In the steam room the body almost completely stops emitting heat; its temperature goes up to 38–39° C, as a result of which oxidizing processes and metabolism increase in the organism. Intensive secretion of sweat (in the steam room and dry heat compartment) promotes removal from the organism of the end products of metabolism and eases the work of the kidneys. Under the influence of high air temperature the dilated skin capillaries become filled with blood diverted from internal organs, thereby promoting the elimination of manifestations of congestion and improving the circulation of the blood. In healthy young people the alternating action of heat and cold, accompanied by the dilation and constriction of skin capillaries, has a beneficial effect on the blood pressure and cardiac activity. For persons with organic heart diseases, arteriosclerosis, aneurysms, hypertonic diseases, and so forth, as well as for children, use of the steam room is harmful.

Tarek Al-Awadi, the lawyer of the defendants in the bathhouse case and also responsible for the lawsuit against Iraqi, previously told Daily News Egypt: "In case that private satellite station Al-Qahera Wal-Nas (Cairo and the People) will not publish an official statement apologising for the actions of its employees, we will continue to escalate.

Sentinor have been securing historical properties across the UK and Ireland for over 20 years, and now it seems Hollywood has gotten in on the act. Several prime time television shows including Game of Thrones, Dr Thorne and Sherlock have recently been filmed in many of the properties we have worked with, such as Castle Ward, Montacute House and Tyntesfield.
With extensive grounds, imposing architecture, paintings and artifacts from a variety of periods in history, it's easy to see why. The 'golden age of television', as it has been referred to has brought about a new breed of fan, eager to embark on location tours of their favourite shows. This, while increasing visitor levels for the National Trust, also increases the likelihood of risk to properties. Luckily, with the Legacy PAG8 System in place, house managers can be easily connected to the entire property, using a range of devices, such as staff pendants, pagers, panic buttons and covert tamper sensors.

The Mini Spider is similar in size to a £1 coin and can be deployed with minimal invasion using double sided tape or wire. It works with the existing LEGACY PAG8+ System and has a range of up to 30 metres.
If the painting is indeed the real 'Judith Beheading Holofernes', as suggested by the Louvre 's Eric Turquin, first refusal will be given to the French government. In the meantime, securing it will be a priority.
Half a million litres of water was delivered this morning to Latur and other areas in India affected by the drought.
The 'water train' houses ten tankers, previously used to transport oil. The tankers were steam cleaned before being filled and sent for emergency well deliveries across the western state of Maharashtra.
Water scarcity in Latur has led to prohibition orders being issued for more than five people gathering around a water storage tank. Meanwhile Maharashtra's Chief Minister has announced that more efforts are being made to supply water to residents.
Sentinor have recently completed a complicated and sensitive upgrade to the alarm system in a Grade 1 listed house in the South of England.
"We are faced with a number of problems with the existing alarm system, including panic button black spots and out buildings whose alarms were unmonitored" said the owner.
Sentinor did a thorough appraisal of the situation, and, using a clever combination of Legacy and Pag8 products, managed to save the owner many thousands of pounds as well as the disturbance of digging through a listed garden.
The appraisal highlighted that there were a number of redundant buildings which could be used as radio hubs for alarm signals from outlying buildings. At the request of the owner, the footprint of the panic buttons was significantly upgraded as well.
The Estate's regular alarm providers will now connect the new system into the regular alarm system.

Bone Marrow - Gelatinous Transformation
Gelatinous transformation of bone marrow in a female F344/N rat from a subchronic study. The marrow is characterized by severe hypocellularity, atrophied fat cells, and the presence of eosinophilic granular ground substance.
Higher magnification of gelatinous transformation of bone marrow in a female F344/N rat from a subchronic study. The marrow is characterized by severe hypocellularity, atrophied fat cells, and the presence of eosinophilic granular ground substance.
Gelatinous transformation of bone marrow (GMT), previously known as "serous atrophy of fat," is an uncommon condition in which there is a loss of adipocytes (fat atrophy) and hematopoietic cells, with replacement by an increased amount of extracellular ground substance ( Figure 1 , Figure 2 ,and Figure 3 ). This lesion is most often focal or multifocal. The ground substance is amorphous, light pink, and sometimes slightly granular in appearance and typically consists of acid mucopolysaccharides that stain positive with Alcian blue at pH 2.5 (humans, equids). To ensure Alcian blue positivity, specific tissue preparation and processing are necessary.
GMT has been described in debilitated rodents and in general is associated with cachexia (e.g., secondary to neoplasia, endocrinopathies) and advanced severe malnutrition (e.g., maldigestion). Under current husbandry standards, however, GMT is rarely encountered in NTP studies today. Although the pathogenesis of GMT remains unclear, its association with a wide range of diseases suggests it may result from basic bioregulatory processes that are activated in states of advanced illness. It has been suggested that the ground substance may be a replacement for the adipocytes that are used in catabolic states of disease, while the hematopoietic cell loss may be due to an unfavorable bone marrow microenvironment related to inadequate hematopoietic substrates and lack of stimulation by adipocytes and fibrocytes.
Gelatinous transformation of bone marrow should always be recorded and graded. Severity grade is based on the extent of marrow affected. The older terms "serous degeneration," "bone marrow degeneration," "serous atrophy of fat," and "fat degeneration" should not be used to diagnose this finding.

It's Actually Impossible to Watch a "Wing Challenge" Video and Not Smile
By Abi Travis
Jun. 10 2020, Updated 1:40 p.m. ET
It's that time again! Time to discuss yet another challenge that has taken over the TikTok scene. This time, it's the Wing Challenge. We would just like to go on record as saying this challenge is an absolute delight and we don't think we'll ever get sick of watching videos of people completing it.
Alas, as with all TikTok challenges, this one will probably be replaced by something else eventually, so be sure to watch the videos and/or make your own while it's still relevant.
What is the Wing Challenge on TikTok?
OK, just so we're all on the same page, we want to be very clear: the Wing Challenge isn't really that much of a challenge. It's more of a funny prank you can pull on your friends and family (don't worry, it won't make them angry like some pranks!). That being said, if you want to record your own video, we recommend telling your mark that it is actually a challenge so they'll be more likely to participate. All you need is a pen, a piece of paper, and a willing participant.
@tracifitch78
Had to try this... 😂 ##corny ##wingchallenge ##momsoftiktok ##momsover40
♬ original sound - tracifitch78
First, draw a butterfly on the piece of paper. Ask your mark to identify the animal (depending on your drawing skills, this part should be pretty easy). Then, circle the butterfly's wing and ask your mark to identify it. "It's a wing," they should say. Great! Tell them to remember that word. It's a magic word. Roll the piece of paper into a loose tube, then ask the person to hold their two thumbs up a few inches apart.
Place the ends of the paper tube over their thumbs, then ask them to say the magic word three times. Once they say, "Wing wing wing," grab the paper tube and hold it up to your ear and say, "Hello?" like you're answering a telephone. That's it! That's the Wing Challenge!
@hayleyorrantia
GOT HIM! Saw this trend going on so I had to try it. @gregfurman ##wingchallenge ##prank ##couple ##relationshipgoals

So, no, it's not a high-level joke that really makes you think, but the beauty of the Wing Challenge is that it is almost impossible to pull it off and not burst out laughing. In fact, it's pretty hard for us to contain our delight at every single video we've seen using the #wingchallenge hashtag on TikTok.
It doesn't matter that you know the end of the joke once you've seen one video. It's somehow funny every single time. It's also the perfect mix of simple and effective that makes you want to try tricking someone else. It's an innocent prank that doesn't make a mess or hurt anyone's feelings. The fact that it does not take any fancy equipment is just the icing on the cake.
@jordananne_
watch this without laughing i dare you... ##inyourface ##wingchallenge @emileekelleher ##fyp ##foryourpage #
♬ original sound - jordananne_
Of course, if you do participate in the Wing Challenge, you don't have to film it and share it on TikTok. We're just extra appreciative of the people who do. We can all use a good laugh every now and again, right? Now if you'll excuse us, we have to start working on our butterfly drawing skills.

Our garden is bursting at the seems.... we have many bedding annuals that we've planted, our veggies, and those sweet smelling herbs that return to us every year.. like rosemary, lavender, cilantro and mint.
Our neighbor warned us that the mint would take over.... I'm kind of hoping it does.
I sliced them, baked them for a couple of hours at 250, threw in some dried rosemary, lavender, and cinnamon sticks.... smells heavenly!
I love that my family is breathing all natural, good for them smells... not a chemical.
Do you like to make homemade potpourri? If so, what do you add to your mixture?
Ahhhhhhhhhhh, There is Heather again! I love the real you showing up here. Will email momentarily..loving you beautiful person.
You are such a blessing to me....a kindred spirit. I love that you love a back-to-basics lifestyle. I have never thought of growing lavender but I will now! I'm taking Jonell's idea and sending you an email. Chat soon!
oops to answer your question [i forgot] what I add /mix to make natural potpourri is "whatever is blooming' or growing nicely...eucalyptus leaves, rosemary, lavender, rose petals almost anything growing.

Une longue collaboration avec l'ensemble vocal de Lausanne et Michel Corboz lui permet d'aborder le répertoire baroque, avec les oeuvres de Monteverdi, Vivaldi, et surtout de Jean Sébastien Bach dont il enregistre le Magnificat, la Messe en Si, les deux Passions et des cantates. Il enregistre aussi la musique française avec Delalande et Marc-Antoine Charpentier avec le rôle de Saül dans David et Jonathas H 490. Il a travaillé également longtemps avec Jean-François Paillard, Helmuth Rilling et, depuis 1990, avec Marc Minkowski et les Musiciens du Louvre.

Il a fait ses débuts sur scène en 1974 au cours du cycle Monteverdi de l'opéra de Zurich avec le rôle-titre de L'Orfeo. Il a chanté Valentin dans le Faust de Gounod, Guglielmo dans Così fan tutte de Mozart et Golaud dans Pelléas et Mélisande de Debussy.

Il est connu pour ses interprétations de Charpentier et Bach. Il a fait de nombreux enregistrements, en particulier de musique sacrée. Depuis 1994 il intervient comme chef de chœur ou chef d'orchestre.

Avec Nina Hagen, il chante l'air d'Europa à la fin du film Europa de Lars von Trier (1991).

En 1999, il participe à la Fête des vignerons à Vevey dans le rôle du dieu Bacchus.

En 2014, il est baryton solo dans le Stabat Mater d'Antonin Dvořák, avec l'ensemble vocal de Lyon dirigé par Guy Cornut.

Michael Jackson: One is the second Michael Jackson-based production in Cirque du Soleil's roster, after Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour. It was announced to the public and media on February 21, 2013. In their continuing partnership with the Jackson estate, One evokes the entertainer's artistic style in several manners. The new production began previews on May 23, 2013 and the official world premiere was June 29, 2013 at the Mandalay Bay on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. Like The Immortal World Tour, this production was also written and directed by Jamie King. "Sneak peek" videos were released on the internet revealing numbers of the production, including "2 Bad", "Stranger in Moscow", "Bad", and "Smooth Criminal". However, unlike Immortal, the show only uses prerecorded tracks, with no live orchestra. This show is also the most dance-driven Cirque du Soleil show.

The show
The show's plot is centered on four "misfits" who set out on a journey into Michael Jackson's world and music. By journey's end, they personify Jackson's agility, courage, playfulness and love. These values are represented with his white gloves, white socks and black shoes, hat and sunglasses.

Each of four main characters receives an object from Jackson. First, Clumsy is given the shoes, and with his newfound balance, performs a double slackline act to "Bad." Next, Shy overcomes her name when she receives Jackson's glasses, and she vanquishes a troupe of warriors in a martial arts display set to "2000 Watts" and "Jam." Then, Smarty Pants, the de facto leader of the four, puts on Jackson's hat and is imbued with the artist's legendary gracefulness in "Smile." Finally, Sneaky, the troublemaker, performs a playful manipulation act with the rogue glove to "This Place Hotel" and "Workin' Day and Night."

 Michael Jackson - the misfits' spirit guide
 Mephisto - the antagonist who represents the paparazzi and tabloid media
 Clumsy - the misfit who gains balance with Jackson's white socks and black loafers
 Shy - the misfit who uses Jackson's sunglasses to overcome her introversion

April at Disney World
April at Disney World wraps up the busy Spring Break and Easter season. But, typically once you get past Easter, the rest of the month is lovely.
Here's what you need to know:
How Our Crowd Calendars Work
Ready to dive in? Jump down to the April Crowd Calendar
1. For each day of the month, we tell you on a scale of 1-10 how busy the entire Walt Disney World Resort is when compared to other days of the year.
2. Then, for each park you'll see the park hours and any special events that are planned.
3. We also track refurbishments and closings (which you can toggle on and off).
4. We have a handy feature that allows you to automatically add your Advanced Dining Reservation date to your calendar.
5. And, one of the most useful features is the ability to be able to print the calendar so that you can have a paper copy for planning (or to just use as a backup).
What order should you visit the parks?
Depending on the length of your trip, here's how many days we recommend for each park:
When it comes time to decide which days are best for each park, here are some general things to keep in mind:
Hollywood Studios is consistently the first park to reach capacity, primarily because of popular attractions like Rise of the Resistance and Slinky Dog Dash.
Magic Kingdom is the most popular park overall. It is also the park most first-time visitors think of when they think "Disney World". Saturdays are the busiest, with mid-week typically the least busy.
Epcot hosts nearly year-round festivals, and those festivals are popular with both out-of-state visitors as well as with locals. And, since a lot of what the festivals are famous for are alcohol and food, the areas around the Festival Booths can be a lot busier (and a bit rowdier) than what you'd find during the daytime hours on the weekdays. If that isn't the vibe you are looking for, you may want to skip Epcot during the nighttime on Friday and Saturdays.
Even with the new Park Pass system, Animal Kingdom remains one of the "easiest" parks to fit into a trip. You should be able to plug it in wherever it makes the most sense for you.
We go into a lot more detail in our guide on The Best Days to Visit Each Park.
Planning for Disney World in April
PARK HOURS | PRICES & DISCOUNTS | SPECIAL EVENTS | WEATHER | WHAT TO WEAR | REFURBISHMENTS & CLOSURES | WHAT'S NEW | TIPS
Park Hours
Disney publishes its park hours about 75 days in advance, but those hours can (and very often do) change.
Note: This used to be about 180 days in advance, but since the reopening, they have transitioned to a roughly 75-day window.
As the dates get closer, it isn't unusual for Disney to tweak either the opening or closing times. And during especially busy times of the year, they may change both.
That means to avoid having your plans sidetracked, you'll definitely want to keep checking the park hours – including while on your trip.
When it comes to park hours – in general – the heavier the crowds, the longer the parks will be open during the day. Of course, that also means that the parks will be open fewer hours of the day during less busy times of the years.
In April, that means that you'll typically find the parks open longer over Spring Break. And, if Easter happens to fall during April when you are traveling, expect longer hours around then, too.

If you are looking for a good deal, late April is a pretty good time to find one.
It isn't unheard of to see discounts earlier in the month, however, the inventory may be more limited than during less busy times of the year.

Epcot International Flower And Garden Festival
Epcot never looks more lovely than during the Flower and Garden Festival, which means April is the perfect time for a visit to this iconic park.
Taking place in the spring (and sometimes early summer) this festival brings dozens of larger-than-life topiaries as well as plenty of food and drink options inspired by all things garden fresh.
Complete Guide to the International Flower and Garden Festival
Depending on the year, Easter sometimes falls in April and while there isn't a lot of stuff that takes place, there are a few worth mentioning (like the Easter Egg displays!).
Even though it's not as big of as a celebration in the parks, there are special ways Disney World celebrates Easter.
Easter at Walt Disney World
Since Animal Kingdom opened on Earth Day in 1998, the date holds a special place for that park.
The events change from year to year, but during the week of Earth Day you can typically find things like unique character experiences, merchandise, and even themed foods and beverages.
Walt Disney World is celebrating 50 years!
Extending all the way from October 1, 2021 until April 1, 2023, this celebration will offer guests the opportunities for new experiences, entertainment, and of course merchandise and treats.
Complete Guide to the 50th Anniversary at Walt Disney World
Weather
By the time April rolls around, most of the chances for super chilly nights have passed.
You can expect for the temperatures to range from lows in the 60s to highs in the low 80s.
Of course, those are just averages so there is always the chance to see those highs soar into the 90s (especially the later in the month you travel).
April typically sees more rain so come prepared with ponchos, multiple pairs of shoes, and umbrellas just in case.
How to handle the weather at Disney World
Swimming In April
The crowds at the pools definitely pick up by the time April rolls around.
In addition to the pools at the resorts, Disney's 2 water parks also become more popular.
If swimming is a must-do, and you are worried about the crowds, consider starting your day at the pool and head to the parks later in the day. Most people reverse that plan which means the pools can get quite busy by the end of the day.
FAQ's about the Pools at Walt Disney World
When packing for Disney World in April, most people will be comfortable wearing whatever they typically wear in the summer (shorts, capris, etc.).
The mornings and evenings may be chilly, but the chill doesn't typically last too long.
One place where you may get cold, however, is inside the restaurants.
And in fact, even during the hottest months we keep a light jacket in our park bag because coming out of the sun into an air-conditioned space is sometimes too cold for our liking.
If you're the kind of person that finds sitting under the AC to be too much, you might want to consider tossing in a light jacket, too.
Ultimate Packing List for Walt Disney World
Refurbishments and Closures
While routine refurbishments aren't typically scheduled in April, you'll likely still run into a few attractions that are closed.
Disney World Refurbishment Calendar
What's new?
Tron Lightcycle / Run is scheduled to open on April 4, with previews starting in March.
Tips for Disney World in April
The sun can be quite intense, even if the temps aren't, so don't forget to wear your sunscreen.
Keep checking for discounts. Even if you've already booked discounts can still be applied.
If Easter falls during April, expect heavy crowds the week before and the week after.
The end of April is a lovely time to visit (and one of our personal favorites!).
How does our Crowd Calendar work?
Official park hours are usually released around 75 days in advance.
Crowd Levels
The "crowd level" compares each day to the rest of the year; it indicates how crowded the entire WDW Resort area is on a scale of 1-10.
10/10 crowd level

About advanced reservations
- Advanced dining reservations: Advanced dining reservations can be made 60 days beforehand beginning online at 6 am EST or by phone at 7:00 am EST.
Tips from our ground crew
- In general, we recommend booking Park Pass reservations for Hollywood Studios early in your trip to maximize your chances to ride Rise of the Resistance.
- Magic Kingdom typically sees a surge on Saturdays, so other parks are usually a better choice.
- Since the festivals can draw lots of locals, avoid Epcot on Friday and Saturday nights.
- Animal Kingdom is a good option for most days, so plug it into your trip wherever it is easiest.

Winter and spring are the peak tourist seasons. Families flock here to escape the winter cold and students crash on the beaches during Spring Break for a little break from the books. Myrtle Beach trips and accommodations are a bit pricier during this time, but you are likely to find a flight and a hotel room on the strip or on the course.
The summers are hot and don't draw the same crowds as spring. Fall is cooler and the city area is quieter. This is the best time to find cheap flights to Myrtle Beach and discounted hotels and resorts.
Myrtle Beach is a popular beach destination and many major airlines service it. Check out our guide to airlines that fly to Myrtle Beach for more information.
Situated along the sandy white coast of South Carolina is famed resort destination Myrtle Beach. The once charmed and quiet beachfront area has transformed itself into a mega entertainment center for families, students, golfers and spa-goers. Book airline tickets to Myrtle Beach and take a trip back in time when boardwalks provided beachfront entertainment and waterslides and amusement parks provided the perfect activity for families. Spring Breakers hop Myrtle Beach flights every spring to party on the beaches while golfers book their Myrtle Beach vacation months in advance to secure their spot on the green. Cheap flights to Myrtle Beach can be found during the off-season — usually summer and fall — when few snowbirds need to escape the winter cold. This is the best time to take in Myrtle Beach's beautiful natural scenery, spend time at the spa or go a few rounds on the course. Whatever you're reason for booking Myrtle Beach vacations, this South Carolina resort town is the perfect family fun spot.
Myrtle Beach weather is dictated by the ocean breezes. Summers are hot and winters are cool and comfortable. The influence of the warm currents of the gulf stream just offshore ensures that this holiday strip is warm enough for fun in the sun most of the year. It does rain suddenly, and heavily, particularly during summer, but the sandy soil allows for quick drainage and even the emerald green golf courses are ready for action again as soon as the showers let up.


How to make your blog attractive to search engines? You need to create a quality content, they say. And what the "quality content" actually means? Here are 10 factors search engines pay attention to while indexing your blog.
Matt Cutts, the former Google's Head of search spam once said that "if you look at the PageRank of a page — how reputable we think a particular page or site is — the ability to spell correlates relatively well with that. So, the reputable sites tend to spell better and the sites that are lower PageRank, or very low PageRank, tend not to spell as well".
What to do? Check your content using Grammarly and dictionaries (like urbandictionary.com).
Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) is a method used by the crawlers to "understand" a general meaning of the website content. To help them and increase your positions use LSI phrases – words associated with the initial keyword. For example, you promote your website with the "Long Island" keyword. Just add to your content LSI words like "island", "flats", "hotels", "New York" to show crawlers that you are promoting the hotel in New York, not the bar in London.
Search tips. You can get it manually from Google autosuggest. To get more fast and accurate results use SE Ranking "Keyword Suggestion Tool" to automate this task.
Google Keyword Planner Tool. See "Keyword Ideas" tab.
Search engine recommendations. Check the section "Searches related to" below the search page of your query.
Do you want your page to get the Google Answers box? You should focus on the content structure, then. It can also increase the content readability — and the chances that your potential customers will understand all the benefits of your product.
What to do? Make sure that your text contains subtitles, paragraphs, lists and visual content.
Search engines love the frequently updated content. And users too. Regular (and valuable, of course) content encourages them to come back to your site, which is good for ranking and loyalty.
What to do? Analyze visitors' involvement to find out the optimum frequency of publications for you. For example, Hubspot analysts researched that it is necessary to publish several posts a day to get more leads. Amit Argawal, founder of Labnol blog, figured out that 3-4 posts a day give the best results.
Don't forget to add the date to your publication. Google highlights it in the query, and users tend to follow the link with "fresh" information.
Landing pages sell products, and blogs sell texts. The links to relevant content in the article are excellent cross-selling. The user gets even more useful information, and you increase your positions in the SERPs. The time the user spends browsing your website is an important signal for ranking.
Customize bread crumbs for easy website navigation.
After publishing a new article, add links to the earlier ones using LF (Low frequency) and MF (Mid-frequency) keywords.
Add the block "Based on your selection, you may be interested in the following items" via your CMS, and manually add related articles.
Video is the main trend of 2017. According to a new report from Cisco, by 2019, online video will be responsible for 80% of global Internet traffic.
Replace your longreads with the video lessons.
Use the video from YouTube. 20% of the SERPs are the video snippets.
70% of people are visual learners — that's all you need to know about illustration importance. So let's get down to it.
The ideal ratio is 1 image per 1000 characters. For certain topics (for example, tourism) it's better to use even more photos and videos.
Image ALT is a great place where you can use the keywords that aren't very suitable to the text ("hotel on the edge of the mountain in the Alps"). So you can get additional traffic from Google's Images.
Interesting content generates a discussion. Keep it going! It will help you improve site visibility and readers loyalty.
Make commenting available through CMS setting or via Disqus widget.
Respond to all comments and questions.
One of the main challenges in blogging is to find interesting and relevant topics. There are several ways to discover your readers' needs.
Check Google Trends to find hot topics in a particular region or period (for seasonal topics).
Find out the search volume index for every keyword on your topic, geographical information about search engine users, and the frequency your keyword appears in Google News.
Monitor your competitor's' website content to be aware of their hot topics. Use SE Ranking Page Change Monitoring to track all content changes on their pages.
How can we define the quality of the content? Let's begin from the bottom, and find how a poor-quality content affects your site. It's worth looking at it and make necessary corrections to keep your readership happy.
Track user engagement using Google Analytics. Find the point where your readers are dropping from the page, check their path and bounce rate.
Analyze why they're leaving, and take it into account when creating the content. Probably, the easiest way to ensure good rankings to your website is to start with the right template. Nowadays, the market is full of providers, who optimize their templates according to the latest search engine algorithms.
Therefore, you can use a website builder solution to start your business and make sure that it will be on the top of search engine results. Such templates can already have clear content structure and all the necessary tags in the right places. There is also inner linking in header and footer sections, which can ensure that all of your website pages are strongly interconnected. And the top of the pie is a set of images, which are not oversized and make the pages load faster (and we all know Google loves it).
These 10 recommendations will not take you to the TOP in a few days but become a good foundation for yielding tangible results in SEO and achieving the best ranking possible.
Credible: Show your site's credibility by using original research, citations, links, reviews, and testimonials. An author biography or testimonials from real customers can help boost your site's trustworthiness and reputation.
Thanks! Glad to hear you've found it useful!
