ART (PART I)
I have so many friends who are artists, creatives and thinkers. I have so many people in my life who inspire me and make me think, 'MAN OH MAN, I need to make like them, put pen to paper and better my creative self', which is vital when you're living a creative life as a side hustle.
So, I thought, rather than keep these talented folk all to myself, why not share the fruits of my friendships with you fine people?
Starting with this here poem.
Yesterday, a friend of mine sent me the link to her new Tumblr page. She's an actress who I once interviewed as part of my 'Job Centre' campaign. She's beautiful, inspirational and – trust me – once you press play on this film, you won't be able to stop watching until the very end.
Welcome to Lotte Rice. Welcome to Spooning Chips.
IT'S FINALLY HERE!
THE SOUND OF CHRISTMAS
THE FORBIDDEN – A REVIEW
I'm lucky in that I have lots of creative friends. I'm lucky in that I live in London and get to see them perform in creative spaces. But most importantly, I am lucky in that I have friends with very real talent who are a pleasure to watch.
Last night served as the perfect reminder of this.
Catherine, my oldest and dearest friend, was in a play called The Forbidden at The Canvas Cafe just off Brick Lane. The venue was a dreamboat made from delicious wines, intimate spaces and beautiful people. The piece itself topped all that.
Fiercely dark yet vastly comical, it left me worried that I was feeling nostalgic. Was I that evil as a teenager? Might I have been so easily swayed? Manipulative? Manipulated? With references to gossip in Science class at school, Abs from Five and a very real focus on every teenager's obsession with sex and virginity, this piece absolutely left me wanting more. I don't want to say too much because I think it's best to enjoy it without any knowledge of the plot – me being the disorganised one of the group hadn't a clue what it was going to be about and I think I was better off for it – so I won't ruin it, but I will say go and see it.
If you're of a certain age, you'll understand the dread that your teenage years will come back to haunt you one day in the form of a forgotten about disposable camera, dug up from your bedroom drawer. You know that it will expose your poor judgment in spotty, fourteen year old boys and a badly cut fringe.
In The Forbidden however, a disposable camera brings back memories of something a little more sinister than blue mascara and a penchant for Tamagotchis.
Haunting. And the perfect date for Halloween week. Book tickets for Monday here.

THE JOB CENTRE – LOTTE RICE
Did you always know you wanted to perform? Not really. The seed was planted in my early teens and the dream grew over the years with each new experience. It really picked up in sixth form when I was acting a lot more.
Did you go to drama school? Yep, RADA, shortly after finishing my A Levels.
What was the application process like? I had initially, quite apathetically, applied to university during 'UCAS Mania' in our A level year. It seemed like the right thing to do. It's what everyone else was doing. Problem was, I didn't really know what I wanted to study. I was interested in many things and my A levels were varied, but the only thing that I knew I wanted to do was act. So, when I randomly met Alan Rickman (long story), he said that if what I wanted to do was act, then I had better get on with it. I then spilt a glass of champagne on his really nice velvet jacket – oops – but went on to apply to loads of drama schools, got shit loads of rejections, kept going and luckily got into RADA. I know lots of people who spent years applying, and honestly – the amount of rejections you get has ABSOLUTELY NO CORRELATION to talent or ultimate success – they are absolutely ballin' now.
What was your first job out of drama school? 'The Way Of The World' by Congreve at Chichester Festival Theatre. I was working with a huge cast, filled with seasoned actors, who had spent large swathes of their careers with the RSC and The National, or on television- a lot of them took me under their wing and showed me the ropes.
How important is it to get an agent? Depends. You can have an agent who does absolutely nothing for you and sometimes it is better to be without so that you be your own full time boss, generate some hype around yourself, and find success alone. Eventually though, if you want to work with the big dogs, you'll need one. But you can work for yourself in the meantime.
What's the best way of going about landing one? I personally believe you are wasting your time cold-calling agents. You are one of maaaany people trying to find one, or find a new one. It's better to spend your time and energy contacting casting directors and directors, getting yourself a job, and then having something to exhibit yourself with. It's always better to put yourself in a position where they can come to see you in something.
How do you go about finding auditions if you don't have an agent? There is a website called Casting Call Pro, which many people use. Also, writing directly to casting directors and directors helps.
What's the most recent play you've been in? I was in a Fringe play called 'Love to Love to Love You' at the Vaults Festival and Edinburgh Festival- it was a new adaptation of 'Le Ronde' by Schnitzler.
Is working on the Fringe fun? It's very exciting, but not for the feint-hearted as the hours are as dodgy as the pay and you will probably have to hustle your audiences. It's worth doing if you believe in the work, though. Plus, like all tricky things, it's 'character building'.
Do you find that surrounding yourself with actor friends helps? Yes. Especially those who I went to drama school with. It's not unusual to say that drama school can be quite a traumatic experience, so when I graduated, I did sometimes find it hard hanging out with old friends who had no idea what I had been through. Actors know your struggle! And it can be a struggle. They're also a lot of fun!
What would be your dream role? There are so many. At the moment I am doing lots of singing and would love to be in a play that involves singing too, although not necessarily a musical. I also love snazzy costumes, so would love to do some classy period dramas on TV.
Are you working on anything at the moment? Yes, I am currently doing some voice overs, shooting a music video and developing a piece of new writing with a theatre company called PaperCut. We are planning to take it to The Vaults festival, Latitude and Edinburgh. Then, depending on how that goes, onwards and upwards!
Do you work between acting jobs? YES! There is no shame in this. Even when I've had lots of money in the bank from big acting jobs, I've had to work, because too much time alone with no structure can play havoc on your headspace. Acting is, fundamentally, the worst industry for any sort of stability or structure. I know that some people are ok with that, but most of us need things to hold onto and keep us going- not only financially, but also mentally.
How do you keep your head up after a rejection? Believe in yourself! And move on. Bounce right back and keep smiling. Beat any disappointment or resentment out of you. It's poisonous.
If you could do anything other than what you do now, what would it be? I'd be a doctor!
And finally, what one piece of practical career advice would you give to your younger self?
Definitely to always believe and have hope. I used to freak out after I finished a job or if I hadn't had an audition in a while. Keep cool, believe, have hope, keep smiling, be clear about what you want and then take steps towards getting it.
It's not easy, but it's simple.
Oozing with talent and charisma. A very good friend of mine and an unbelievable party companion.
So. Much. Sass.
Any questions for her? Let me know and I'll pass them on.

BEAST IN BLACK sign with Nuclear Blast; debut album due in November!
International heavy metallers BEAST IN BLACK are ready to strike with might and main! The band with former BATTLE BEAST guitarist Anton Kabanen will release their debut album titled »Berserker«, in November. Its cover artwork marks the return of the collaboration between Anton and Roman Ismailov who was the original illustrator and graphic artist for BATTLE BEAST. Additionally the band can proudly announce that they have signed a worldwide record deal with the famous heavy metal powerhouse Nuclear Blast. More info on BEAST IN BLACK's debut album coming soon!
Anton Kabanen stated:
"Our wildest dreams came true when we made a deal with Nuclear Blast, the biggest and the best heavy metal label in the world! We are thrilled about our debut album release in November and besides the massive anthem-like heavy metal songs we'll promise unforgettable live shows all around the world as we unleash the »Berserker« album!"
The five-piece, Helsinki based heavy metal band BEAST IN BLACK was founded by Anton Kabanen soon after he had parted ways with BATTLE BEAST in 2015. By the end of 2015 the band played their first gig as opening act for NIGHTWISH. The making of »Berserker« was already in progress back then and it was completed in summer 2017. A deal was signed with Nuclear Blast almost immediately after the completion of the album.
»Berserker« continues in the style of Anton's previously composed works which include the first three BATTLE BEAST albums. One of the essential themes on this debut album is the Japanese manga and anime »Berserk«.

As an agitprop musical theater collective, the San Francisco Mime Troupe has to put a lot of thought into which pressing issue to tackle for each year's free show in the parks. This time around, in the company's 58th season, it seems like there's a plentitude of villainy afoot to rally the citizenry to resist.
Troupe resident playwright Michael Gene Sullivan's latest musical satire, "Walls," takes aim at immigration crackdowns. That's certainly been a huge talking point for the current administration, though the play is peppered with sound clips of "nation of immigrants, but a nation of laws" rhetoric from the past few presidents to illustrate that it's not a new one.
L. Mary Jones knows her job. A longtime agent with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, she's more than prepared to be tough as nails to make sure people coming here to build a new life have their papers in order or go back where they came from. The trouble is, her girlfriend, who lives with her, is an undocumented immigrant, so Mary has to go to great lengths to avoid taking her work home with her.
As usual in recent years, the play is performed by a tight cast of four playing multiple roles. Velina Brown mixes a take-charge attitude with nagging doubts as Mary, who's pulled between her sense of duty on one side and her love and compassion on the other. (Lauren Spencer has since taken over the role) But Mary has it easy compared to her girlfriend, Zaniyah (sympathetically anxious Marilet Martinez), who frets about finding work and being discovered, and who's severely traumatized by her border-crossing experience. In fact, every time she starts to say the word "border" she starts convulsing to the sudden cacophony of the band.
Rotimi Agbabiaka is amiably chatty as Bahdoon, a friendly Somali American shopkeeper, and also pops up as a barking ICE supervisor and as Mary's eccentric shrimp fisherman father ranting about "illegals." As soon as he shows up, you just know that the perfectly legal immigrant Bahdoon, a practicing Muslim, is going to get scapegoated for something.
Lizzie Calogero is an overzealous true believer as the unpronounceable Agent Cliodhna Abhabullogue, an Irish immigrant ICE agent itching to bust some huddled masses yearning to breathe free. The heavily accented Agent Abhabullogue considers herself ultra-American and anyone who doesn't look like her to be interlopers, but of course her own reasons for coming over to the fabled land of opportunity were pretty much the same as the people she's hunting, as she's reminded by a ragged leprechaun played by Martinez in an amusingly weird interlude.
A former performer with the company, director Edris Cooper-Anifowoshe gives the play a brisk staging of less than 80 minutes in her first Mime Troupe show since 1991. With lyrics by Piero Amadeo Infante and music by Michael Bello, the songs are more dynamic than usual, from Zaniyah's cabaret "Lamento" to Bahdoon's upbeat Afrobeat ode to the "Land of Milk and Honey" and Abhabullogue's gloating hard rock anthem "Don't You Wish You Were American." Carlos Aceves' evocative set depicts a disassembled Statue of Liberty, the inconvenient symbol of a welcoming nation of immigrants.
The show has a lot of funny moments but is ultimately sobering, with a downbeat ending and not much hope for positive change aside from a general reminder to know your rights and fight for them. Sometimes the change that's needed has to start in hearts and minds before it can make a dent in the system.

Introduction /
Gutenberg, Fust and Schoeffer /
[BIBLIA LATINA (the "Gutenberg Bible," or "42-Line Bible")].
Fragment of 31 leaves.
[Mainz: Johannes Gutenberg, Johannes Fust, and Peter Schoeffer, c. 1454-55].
The invention of printing with moveable type at Mainz, Germany, c. 1450, did not merely introduce a means of manufacturing multiple books quickly. It introduced to Western culture the essential intellectual concept of the "edition," so that readers in all parts of Europe could consult identical copies of a fixed text that was not compromised by the variability of each reader's manuscript version. Thus, the printing press did not merely spread learning with unprecedented speed; it provided learning with a reliable foundation for growth.
The most detailed fifteenth-century account of the European invention of printing with moveable type appeared in the "Cologne Chronicle" of 1499. This text includes the early Cologne printer Ulrich Zel's testimony that Johannes Gutenberg had invented printing in Mainz by 1450, and that "the first book to be printed was the Bible in Latin, with type as large as the type now used in the printing of Missals." A variety of documentary and material evidence proves that the first substantial printed book in Europe was the undated, unsigned Latin Bible printed with 42 lines of "Missal" type per column, now famous as the "Gutenberg Bible."
Bridwell Library's 31 leaves of the Gutenberg Bible, including the books of Jeremiah, Lamentations, and Baruch, came from an incomplete second volume discovered in 1828 at a farmhouse near Trier, Germany. The volume eventually became the property of a Jewish chemist who sold it through Sotheby's in 1937 to finance his escape from Nazi Germany to London. The buyer was Arthur A. Houghton, Jr., who in 1953 turned it over to Charles Scribner's Sons in New York. This firm removed 116 leaves of the New Testament for a collector in Chicago (they are now at Indiana University) and sold the 132 remaining leaves individually and in small groups. The largest of these groups, this 31-leaf fragment, went to John M. Crawford, Jr., of New York City, whose agents sold it to Bridwell Library on 11 June 1970.

Dan Prince, Associate Director, has been busy meeting with Outdoor School providers and sites to help build the connections that will ensure Oregon students have great learning experiences in beautiful, safe, and inspiring locations across Oregon. He toured two camps currently hosting ODS programs, Bar M Ranch in Pendleton and Camp Elkanah in La Grande, as well as two facilities in the Columbia Gorge that are interested in hosting ODS, Camps Wa-Ri-Ki and Arrowhead. In Lane County, Dan consulted with Camp Lutherwood about how to get more schools into their open weeks. Due to the connections that Friends of ODS helped make, they were successful!
Outdoor School not only educates students and fosters development for teen leaders, these programs provide excellent job opportunities. However, this is not an aspect of Outdoor School often considered, so Dan includes this topic in his outreach efforts. Last month, he spoke with Camp Arrah Wanna staff about job skills gained by working in residential outdoor education and also met with Stephen Hatfield of Travel Oregon and Hugh Morrison of Oregon Outdoors Coalition to connect about rural economic development and how ODS can help bolster a region's job pool.
As a hands-on, place-based experience, Outdoor School partners with the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) learning communities in Oregon, as both programs feature—in fact, depend upon—students actively participating in the educational process and applying what they've learned. Dan and Kim recently met with STEM Beyond School leadership to discuss how regional efforts align with the statewide ODS program and how FODS can support their efforts. Your generous contributions and committment allow us to engage in this kind of work!

# [Material-UI](http://callemall.github.io/material-ui/)

[![Gitter](https://badges.gitter.im/Join Chat.svg)](https://gitter.im/callemall/material-ui?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge)

Material-UI is a CSS framework and a set of [React](http://facebook.github.io/react/) components that implement [Google's Material Design](https://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html) specification.

Check out our [documentation site](http://www.material-ui.com/) for live examples. It's still a work in progress, but hopefully you can see where we're headed.

## Prerequisites

We recommend that you get started with the [React Library](http://facebook.github.io/react/) before diving into material-ui for a better understanding. Should you choose to skip this, don't worry, we'll explain relevant React concepts as they come along.

## Installation

Material-UI is available as an [npm package](https://www.npmjs.org/package/material-ui).
```sh
npm install material-ui
```

Use [browserify](http://browserify.org/) and [reactify](https://github.com/andreypopp/reactify) for dependency management and JSX transformation. The CSS framework is written in [Less](http://lesscss.org/), so you'll need to compile that as well. For [Sass](http://www.sass-lang.com) users, [material-ui-sass](https://github.com/gpbl/material-ui-sass) contains the .scss version of the Less framework. People working with [Stylus](http://learnboost.github.io/stylus/) can use [material-ui-stylus](https://github.com/Autarc/material-ui-stylus) to import
the proper .styl version of the files.

### React-Tap-Event-Plugin
Some components uses [react-tap-event-plugin](https://github.com/zilverline/react-tap-event-plugin) to
listen for touch events. This dependency is temporary and will go away once react v1.0 is released. Until then, be
sure to inject this plugin at the start of your app.
```js
var injectTapEventPlugin = require("react-tap-event-plugin");

//Needed for onTouchTap
//Can go away when react 1.0 release
//Check this repo:
//https://github.com/zilverline/react-tap-event-plugin
injectTapEventPlugin();
```

### Roboto Font
Be sure to include the [Roboto](http://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Roboto) font in your project.
Here are [some instructions](http://www.google.com/fonts#UsePlace:use/Collection:Roboto:400,300,500) on how to include it in your project.

## Usage

Once material-ui is included in your project, you can use the components this way:
```js
/** MyAwesomeReactComponent.jsx */

var React = require('react'),
  mui = require('material-ui'),
  RaisedButton = mui.RaisedButton;

var MyAwesomeReactComponent = React.createClass({

  render: function() {
    return (
      <RaisedButton label="Default" />
    );
  }

});

module.exports = MyAwesomeReactComponent;
```

## Customization

The styles are separated into 2 less files:
* src/less/scaffolding.less
* src/less/components.less

This allows you to override any variables defined in [custom-variables.less](https://github.com/callemall/material-ui/blob/master/src/less/variables/custom-variables.less) without having to modify material-ui source files directly. For example, your main.less file could look something like this:
```css
@import "node_modules/material-ui/src/less/scaffolding.less";

//Define a custom less file to override any variables defined in scaffolding.less
@import "my-custom-overrides.less";

@import "node_modules/material-ui/src/less/components.less";
```

## Examples
There are 2 projects that you can look at to help you get started. The first project can be found in the [example folder](https://github.com/callemall/material-ui/tree/master/example). This is a basic project that shows how you can consume material-ui components in your own project.

The second project is the actual documentation site. This is a more complex project but will give examples of every component. Check out the [docs folder](https://github.com/callemall/material-ui/tree/master/docs) for build instructions.

## Contribute

[Material-UI](http://www.material-ui.com/) came about from our love of [React](http://facebook.github.io/react/) and [Google's Material Design](https://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html). We're currently using it on a project at [Call-Em-All](https://www.call-em-all.com/) and plan on adding to it and making it better. If you'd like to help, check out the [docs folder](https://github.com/callemall/material-ui/tree/master/docs). We'd greatly appreciate any contribution you make. :)

Su nombre de la infancia fue , pero se cambió el nombre a  en su genpuku. Después de que el shōgun Ashikaga Yoshiteru le permitiera usar parte de su nombre y utilizar los kanji que lo integraban, se cambió nuevamente el nombre a Yoshihisa.

En 1566 heredó el liderazgo del clan Shimazu y junto a sus hermanos Yoshihiro, Toshihisa e Iehisa, lanzó una campaña para unificar Kyūshū. En 1572 comenzó derrotando al clan Itō durante la batalla de Kigasakihara, en 1578 al clan Ōtomo durante la batalla de Mimigawa, en 1583 al clan Ryūzōji y en 1584 al clan Aso.

La campaña de unificación estaba casi lograda pero en 1587 Toyotomi Hideyoshi lanzó otra para pacificar Kyūshū con una fuerza abrumadora de 200.000 soldados por lo que las tropas del clan Shimazu fueron obligadas a replegarse hasta el dominio de Satsuma donde fueron obligados a rendirse. Yoshihisa se rapó la cabeza al rendirse mostrando que se convertiría en monje budista si su vida era perdonada, tomando el nombre de .

Yoshihisa murió finalmente en 1611.

Former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern has raised concerns about the North being left in limbo without peace and infrastructure funds amid efforts to avoid a hard border.
Speaking in Donegal, at the MacGill Summer School this evening, Mr Ahern also suggested that Britain after Brexit would undermine its own market as a destination for Irish agri-food exports.
His remarks come as negotiations between the EU and Britain resume this week on attempts to agree a withdrawal deal and therefor avoid a cliff edge scenario for Brexit.
I would strongly urge the European Union to continue to support future peace programmes in Ireland, post the British departure from the European Union.
EU funding has helped government agencies in the North as well as public bodies, private sectors companies and the farming community there.
Under the Common Agricultural Policy 2014 – 2020, farmers in the North will receive in excess of €2.6bn in direct payments during this period. This accounts for 87% of total farm income in the North.
"In other words, how much money will the British government allocate post 2020 to substitute EU financed programmes that operate in Northern Ireland at this time?
This is a very serious issue indeed and all contracting parties need to sit down and assess how to move these matters forward in a positive and constructive manner.

Golden Ticket Contest at LabCentral (Cambridge, MA) >
Golden Ticket Contest at MBC BioLabs (San Francisco, CA) >
Golden Ticket Contest at BioLabs@NYULangone (New York, NY) >
Bristol Myers Squibb sponsors three contests for Golden Tickets — with partner organizations in California, Massachusetts and New York. Each contest is administered and run separately according to each contest's Official Rules.
Companies engaged in therapeutic research in the fields of oncology, hematology, immunology, cardiovascular disease, neuroscience or fibrotic diseases are encouraged to apply, as are those pursuing research in novel target identification, drug delivery, discovery technology platforms or translational R&D.
LabCentral Golden Tickets: Cambridge, MA
Bristol Myers Squibb is a platinum sponsor of LabCentral, an innovative, shared laboratory space in Cambridge, MA, designed as a launchpad for life-science and biotech start-ups. Each year, Bristol Myers Squibb sponsors a contest to award two "Golden Tickets." Each Golden Ticket is one year of underwritten individual laboratory bench space at Lab Central ("Award").
2021 LabCentral Golden Ticket Winners
Congratulations to Rubik Therapeutics and RADD Pharmaceuticals, winners of Bristol Myers Squibb's 2021 Golden Tickets for LabCentral. Here is how they describe their work:
Rubik Therapeutics, co-founded by Murray Robinson, Ph.D., in 2021, is on a mission to develop best-in-class engineered cell therapies for solid tumors by leveraging its data-driven discovery platforms. The company is backed by Illumina Accelerator.
RADD Pharmaceuticals is focused on previously undrugged cancer targets. The startup is backed by the early-stage venture capital firm Canaan.
Congratulations to Lucy Therapeutics and Vincere Biosciences, winners of Bristol Myers Squibb's 2020 Golden Tickets for LabCentral.
Lucy Therapeutics (LucyTx) is a mitochondrial platform company currently focused on small molecule treatments for Rett syndrome and Parkinson's disease. LucyTx's platform has led to the discovery of targets and molecules which can improve critical mitochondrial dysfunction in these diseases and address their complex organ symptomatology. Leveraging advanced chemical matter for these targets, LucyTx can quickly answer key questions about the pathways critical for disease modification. By targeting mitochondrial outcomes, this opens the opportunity for a peripheral biomarker approach for these diseases, which are being pursued in both of the company's programs.
Vincere Biosciences develops small molecule therapeutics to slow or halt Parkinson's disease, empowered by a suite of computational tools alongside traditional biology and drug discovery expertise. To slow the decline of mitochondrial quality that leads to neurodegeneration, Vincere seeks to enhance the removal of damaged mitochondria which may lead to disease, by modulating mitochondrial quality control mechanisms such as mitophagy. By increasing mitophagy to recycle these damaged mitochondria, Vincere works to increase the number of healthy mitochondria and counteract this key deficit in Parkinson's disease brains.
Learn about the winners of Bristol Myers Squibb's 2019 LabCentral Golden Tickets, Carmine Therapeutics and STIMIT, here.
Carmine Therapeutics is pioneering a new class of genetic medicines based on red blood cell extracellular vesicles (RBCEVs) as redosable allogeneic therapies. These homogeneous, non-immunogenic and stable vesicles can be exogenously engineered, at scale, without culture expansion, to carry large nucleic acid payloads (at least 11 kilobases), and surface functionalized with targeting ligands to increase bioavailability in specific tissues and cell types. This technology, published in Nature Communications, forms the foundation of Carmine's fully modular and robust REGENT platform that aims to revolutionize nucleic acid therapies.
STIMIT aims to disrupt how, when and where cancer immunotherapy is deployed to dramatically improve patient outcomes. Specifically, STIMIT has developed a hydrogel from a natural, biodegradable, FDA-approved polymer to enable extended localized release of cancer immunotherapy in the context of surgical tumor resection, which is the standard of care for most cancer patients with solid tumors. While most approaches in oncology attempt to treat macroscopic disease, STIMIT is reprogramming the post-resection milieu from immunosuppressive to immunostimulatory and thereby improving the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy relative to traditional routes of administration.
Learn about the winners of Bristol Myers Squibb's 2018 LabCentral Golden Tickets, ReviveMed and Strand Therapeutics, here.
ReviveMed is pioneering an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven drug discovery platform by leveraging metabolomics. ReviveMed is working to overcome the difficulties of identifying a large set of metabolites for each patient, based on technology developed at MIT and published in Nature Methods. It further translates metabolomic data into novel therapeutic insights for drug and drug response biomarker discovery. Currently, ReviveMed is collaborating with pharmaceutical companies and pursuing internal drug discovery programs, initially focused on metabolic diseases.
Strand Therapeutics' goal is to make mRNA therapies safer and more effective by programming the location, timing and intensity of therapeutic protein expression inside a patient's body using mRNA-encoded logic circuits. These circuits can implement cell-type specific expression by sensing and classifying the unique miRNA expression signatures of cells, as well as controlling the dosage of protein expression by responding to exogenously administered small molecules. The technology was developed at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and published in Nature Biotechnology and Nature Chemical Biology.

Learn about the winners of Bristol Myers Squibb's 2016 LabCentral Golden Tickets, PanTher Therapeutics and Suono Bio, here.
PanTher Therapeutics is working to revolutionize the treatment of inoperable, locally advanced solid tumors − studying the direct delivery of existing, already proven chemotherapy agents directly onto the tumor for consistent, slow release over time. The company designed its novel delivery method to potentially eliminate the toxicity and debilitating side effects that chemo agents can produce when delivered systemically through traditional IV or oral administration. Its first potential indication is pancreatic cancer, a particularly lethal disease that affects more than 53,000 Americans annually, where excruciating symptoms arise from the primary mass invading nearby vital organs. By changing the route of administration to target just the tumor, PanTher is designed to increase the amount of drug reaching the intended destination with the aim to enhance therapeutic efficacy. Eliminating adverse outcomes may also help to lower healthcare costs. Pancreatic cancer accounts for about three percent of all cancers in the U.S. and about seven percent of cancer deaths. A privately held company, PanTher is completing pre-clinical studies prior to initiating human trials and exploring opportunities for partnerships to expand its product pipeline.
Suono Bio, a preclinical stage company, has developed breakthrough technology − the "SuonoCalmTM" system − designed to potentially enable ultra-rapid delivery of therapeutics across tissues, including the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that the ultrasound-based technology can deliver small molecules, proteins, and nucleic acids locally and systemically, validating further study of the SuonoCalm system. Designed as an easy-to-use device to enable patients to self-administer medication at home, the SuonoCalm technology may also be applicable to a broad set of conditions outside of the GI tract.

# Senior Software Engineer - Accessibility

### Why do you want to work at GitHub?

I want to work at Github if:

* My product ideas are valued as much as my technical contributions
* I am encouraged to engage in new roles, develop new skills and step outside my comfort zone
* Collaboration is rewarded and innovation is encouraged
* Github supports a positive, empathetic and stable work environment

### Why do you feel you would be a fit for this role?

I enjoy refactoring code that enables developer productivity through clarity and reusability.

I have ~6 months experience building and testing against WCAG guidelines and it's important that the community continues to expand the standard.

I'd like to continue working with the "view\_component" gem and help expand the Primer system, because Rails should provide robust, accessible and testable front end solutions by default.

I'd like to gain experience building progressive web applications.

I'm not shy about asking questions or highlighting my knowledge gaps.

Formally educated in architecture and design, I enjoy building beautiful and functional spaces.

### What do you think are some of the challenges of working remotely, and how would you address them?

At the team level, feelings of isolation or disconnectedness can adversely affect collaboration.

Perhaps a new team member doesn't want to bother their new co-workers, even though they have been stuck on a problem for a few days.

Or maybe an existing team member is so intensely focused, they miss opportunities to connect with the rest of the team.

In either case it's important that teams check-in with each other daily - it can be about progress, or a simple "how are you doing today?"; simple gestures go a long way towards feeling included and keeping morale high.

In general, timely responses help everyone feel like they aren't sending slacks into the void and encourage them to reach out frequently.

As an aside, keeping zoom calls short but with cameras enabled can help maintain engagement amongst the group; you're talking to real life people!

### **How did you hear about this job?**

A Linkedin notification pointed me to the Github job board.

Faithful fill pews at liturgy in newly-renovated spiritual 'home'
by Chris Donahue
MONROE TOWNSHIP — Bishop James F. Checchio presided at a Mass in which three elements integral to Catholics' faith were blessed and dedicated in the newly-renovated Nativity of Our Lord Church Feb. 9.
In solemn rites, Bishop Checchio blessed the ambo, from which the word of God is proclaimed and homilies are given; the baptismal font, where new members of the faith are christened with holy water; and altar, where bread and wine are consecrated to become the spiritual food of the faithful.
The renovations for the $2 million project also included: marble floors and walls of the sanctuary; lighting; ceiling; stations of the cross; and stained-glass windows depicting the Glorious Mysteries of the rosary and the Joyful Mysteries of the rosary. The third Joyful Mystery is the Nativity of Our Lord.
Renovation of the church, which was dedicated in 1996, were needed for several reasons, said Father Edward R. Flanagan, pastor.
"The majority of the parish [demographics] is 55-and-over, the sanctuary was very steep, the lighting was very poor, there was not handicap accessibility for people with disabilities, and we had a drop ceiling that was God awful," he said.
Nancy Stone, a member of the parish for four years, described the renovations as "breathtaking."
"I really want to thank Father Ed for making our home so beautiful. I cried through the whole Mass," she said.
After the blessing of the ambo and baptismal font, Bishop Checchio and Father Flanagan processed down the aisles sprinkling holy water to bless the church and congregation.
In his homily, Bishop Checchio said, "In a moment, we will consecrate the new altar. Consecration of an altar is an important and unique prayer in the Church. We use sacred chrism oil consecrated on Holy Thursday."
The bishop explained that the oil is only used in "significant moments of prayer in the Church:" the sacraments of baptism and confirmation; ordination of a new priest and new bishop; consecration of a new church and a new altar.
The consecration, he said, "sets the altar apart for sacred use" such as "affecting the sacrament of the holy Eucharist."
"The altar takes on the person of Christ, that is why we bow to it as we pass by. It is why priests and deacons kiss it. They kiss Christ."
In the blessing of the altar, Bishop Checchio poured oil of chrism, also called holy chrism, on it.
Then, members of the parish dried the altar, placed a linen over it and candles were arranged at its four corners. A crucifix and lectionary were the last items placed on it, while parishioners presented flowers that were placed on the floor in front of it. Among those who serve the parish are members of the Sisters of Christian Charity. Father Flanagan said entombed in the new altar was "a prized possession he has had since my youth" — a relic of St. Edward the Confessor and a relic of Blessed Pauline, foundress of the Sisters of Christian Charity.
"The sisters will always be a part of the parish," he said.
Christine Dranchak, finance director, said the parish has an ongoing memorial campaign — not a fundraiser — to memorialize the objects that were part of the renovation. "Out of 62 memorials we have, 43 have been sold," she said.
The renovation was done by liturgical designer Lawrence Hoy, president of the Westport, Conn.-based Lawrence Hoy Studios, Inc. In addition to his work at parishes, Hoy has created the furnishings for three papal visits to the United States: St. John Paul II, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI and Pope Francis.
"We are mostly complete in the sanctuary, but still have quite a bit more work in the rear of the church, which will feature six shrines with beautiful walls of votive candles in between as well as new marble and wood sanctuary shrines for Mary and Joseph," Hoy said. "We will also be installing the new organ speakers in decorative casings in the center of the rear wall of the church."
New front doors and vestibule stained glass and all remaining details are expected to be completed by Easter (April 12), he added.
Michael Rock, job supervisor for LH Studios at Nativity of Our Lord, said the renovation involved overseeing about 20 businesses or artisans and went "very smoothly." Among the work was the installation of a terrazzo floor, which includes taking out the old tiles, putting a membrane down, pouring an epoxy on it then chips of marble and more epoxy. The hardened surface is grinded and polished.
Marble from Italy was used to make the altar, baptismal font and floor and columns, he said.
In his closing remarks, Bishop Checchio praised Father Flanagan for overseeing the renovation despite being treated for brain cancer.
"It's challenging to be a pastor of a parish. It's a hard job balancing the pastoral needs of the parish, finances, personnel, the list goes on and on," Bishop Checchio said. "Most priests don't want to be involved in renovation projects because they are a pain in the neck even though they turn out beautiful, they add a lot of stress to your life. Anybody who does all that while facing huge personal crises and steadily steering it, certainly he [Father Flanagan] did it all.
"We are grateful for Father Ed. He is a gift God gave us…keep him in your prayers."
The congregation responded with a standing ovation.
In his closing remarks, Father Flanagan cited the support of the bishop for the renovation.
"He has called me frequently and I appreciated it. It alleviated my fears and concerns and has moved this project along as quickly as possible," Father Flanagan said.
At a reception, when asked how he managed to oversee the project despite his illness, Father Flanagan cited "a great staff who had my back."
"Whenever I ended up going to [Memorial] Sloan Kettering [Cancer Center] for cancer treatment or radiation, the project just continued," he said. "And Larry Hoy was wonderful to work with. We scheduled appointments around my treatment."
The reception was held at Father Congdon Hall, where Mass was celebrated with the old altar while the church was being renovated. The old baptismal font was also moved there.
Nativity of Our Lord Parish serves 1,642 registered families, Father Flanagan said. There are about 225 children registered in its religious education program for first to eighth grade, said Dr. Mary Kay Cullinan, parish catechetical leader and organist.
The parish was established July 7, 1992, by Bishop Edward T. Hughes to meet the needs of a growing Catholic population in that area of Monroe Township. Father Stephen Congdon was the founding pastor.
According to parish archives, its original office and adjoining chapel were in the Concordia Shopping Plaza on Perrineville Road. Weekend Masses were held at Applegarth Middle School.
The present church was built on a former potato farm. A solemn Mass of Consecration was celebrated Nov. 21, 1996, the Feast of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Melted fuel in Fukushima No. 1's reactor No. 2 on Jan. 19 | INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOR NUCLEAR DECOMMISSIONING / VIA KYODO
Tepco probe to directly touch melted fuel debris at Fukushima plant
The operator of the crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant is planning to survey melted fuel debris at the No. 2 reactor by the end of March — using a special device — in an operation it hopes will help it determine the best method for its removal, sources said Wednesday.
It will be the first survey by Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. involving direct contact with the debris at the Nos. 1 to 3 units, which suffered core meltdowns triggered by the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
Tepco is considering extracting debris — the most difficult part of the decommissioning process — first from the No. 2 unit. Gravel-like fuel material was confirmed at the bottom of its containment vessel in a January survey using a telescopic arm.
The utility aims to collect information in the survey to help determine how to extract the debris and develop a container in which to keep it. A special device will be attached to a pipe with a camera to check whether the fuel material can be moved. Samples may also be collected for analysis, the sources said.
In the road map compiled by Tepco and the government for scrapping the damaged reactors, the two are to decide on the method for debris extraction and from which unit they will start removing debris. In an underwater robot probe conducted last July at the No. 3 unit, Tepco found what was believed to be debris, but extracting that will be much harder than in the No. 2 unit because the company will need to lower the water level inside the containment vessel.
The location of the material in the No. 1 unit remains unknown.
Fukushima No. 1, Tepco, nuclear crisis


When you've found your perfect bike, the last thing you want is for it to be stolen. The most direct way to stop theft is a lock.
There are several options in locks, starting with the choice between a combo or key lock. Then you get to look at the grade and style of lock that's right for you.
A basic light cable lock is extremely versatile, and can enable you to lock your bike to almost anything, from a rack to a tree. A light lock is also easy to carry around, though at the trade-off of security: lighter locks are also easier for a thief to cut through. A light cable lock is great for emergencies only, when you don't plan to be out of eyeline of your bike for more than a few minutes; if you'll only be locking it up to run in somewhere for a moment or two. It is significantly better than nothing.
A jointed lock offers significantly more protection than a light cable lock, while preserving the versatility. Jointed locks are the same or similar cable to a light cable lock, but covered by armoured steel links for additional security. They are almost impossible to cut through without lots of time and special equipment. The length and flexibility makes it possible to use a jointed lock to lock your bicycle around a wide variety of objects.
A U-lock can offer the strongest protection, but at the cost of some versatility: you need to find a bike rack or fence to lock it to. There are varying grades of U-lock, starting at the approximate strength of a jointed lock and going up from there.
Locking skewers are a way to secure the most easily removed portions of your bicycle – the wheels and seatpost. Most come standard with either quick-release or bolt-on skewers. Quick-release skewers allow for quick adjustability in seat height and easy removal of wheels for transport, but also quick and easy removal of those parts by a thief. Bolt-on skewers take more time to remove, but doing so requires only simple tools. Locking skewers, however, require tools specific to locking skewers to be removed, making it significantly more difficult for a thief to abscond with your wheels and seatpost.
Where you store your bike is also a part of theft prevention – it is much more secure indoors, in your home or a secure bicycle storage area.

Le porno cameriere (Zimmermädchen machen es gern o Bienenstich im Liebesnest) è un film pornografico tedesco del 1975 diretto da Hans Billian e, non accreditato, Alois Brummer.

Del film furono girate due versioni, una softcore intitolata Zimmermädchen machen es gern, ed una hardcore intitolata Bienenstich im Liebesnest.

Trama
Hannelore Reitzler fugge con il suo ragazzo all'Hotel Liebesnest ma lui la lascia durante la notte dopo aver fallito nel prendere la sua verginità. Non volendo tornare a casa, Hannelore trova impiego come cameriera nell'hotel, il che implica, dietro pagamento di un supplemento, concedere favori sessuali ai clienti. Nel frattempo, una ladra si intrufola nell'albergo ogni notte e tutte le volte che viene catturata, offre il suo corpo per farsi rilasciare.

Curiosità
Nella versione softcore del film, la bionda Biggi Stenzhorn interpreta Sonja Winkler, una scolaretta che accompagna il proprio insegnante di matematica all'hotel. Nella versione hard invece, Biggi interpreta Gisela, l'ospite che diventa cameriera nella scena finale. Una brunetta non identificata interpreta Sonja nella versione hard e Gisela in quella soft.
In questo film Patricia Rhomberg, all'epoca compagna del regista Billian, anche se si mostra completamente nuda, non interpreta ruoli hardcore: il suo atto sessuale più esplicito è fare un breve footjob ad un uomo.

Paul's belief in God's promises moved him emotionally – Paul was a man of great faith and belief in God and His promises. Paul believed in God's promise of salvation to any and all who would call on His name (cf. Rom 10:13). He also believed in God's promise of wrath and condemnation would come to any and all who would not believe in His son, Jesus the Christ (cf. Rom 5:9, 8:1; 2 Ths 1:3-12). It was Paul's belief in God's promise of "eternal destruction" (2 Ths 1:9) on those who would not submit to the "righteousness of God" (Rom 10:3) that he had "great sorrow and continual grief" (Rom 9:2) in his heart for his unfaithful countrymen. So first he allowed himself to be moved emotionally by God's word and his countrymen's lack of faithfulness.
Paul took the message of Christ to his countrymen – Paul didn't just hide behind his prayers for his countrymen, he prayed and acted by taking the message of Christ to his people. It was Paul's custom that whenever he went into a city that he first went to the synagogue to preach Christ to the Jews (Act 17:2). Even when he was under house arrest in Rome, Paul called for the "leaders of the Jews" to come to him so he could declare to them the "hope of Israel" which is Jesus Christ (Act 28:17-29).
We see in Paul a deep love for Israel, his countrymen. His deep love for them and their rejection of Jesus as the Messiah caused him great sorrow and grief that lead him to earnestly pray and teach them the gospel of Jesus.
I think it's safe to say that there are people in your life that have not accepted Jesus as their Savior. There's no doubt that their lack of faithfulness to the Lord causes you great sorrow and continual grief because you know eternal punishment awaits them. Just like Paul, I know that you have often said "I wish I could take their place." Perhaps you've prayed for the Lord to condemn you if it meant they would be saved. You know He won't (and it's to your souls benefit that He won't), but that doesn't mean you are left powerless. Let me ask you question… what are you doing with your sorrow and grief? Are you burying it deep down in your soul, trying to medicate it somehow with wishful thinking? OR are you allowing it to provoke your spirit to praying for them and seeking to teach them the gospel of Jesus? Friend it is only through prayer and teaching that your loved one will come to the accept Jesus as their Savior. So please let me urge you, be about the work of prayer and teach before it's too late. I pray that you'll learn from Paul and follow his example.
I would love to hear from you about your efforts to save a loved one that is dear to you. Would you share you story with me? You can email me at clay@claygentry.com, I look forward to hearing from you. God bless you in your efforts.

The Delightful Perversity of Québec's Catholic Swears
Québec's swearing vocabulary is one of the weirdest and most entertaining in the entire world. It is almost entirely made up of everyday Catholic terminology—not alternate versions, but straight-up normal words that would be used in Mass to refer to objects or concepts—that have taken on a profane meaning. Many languages have some kind of religious terminology wrapped into profanity (think of English's "damn" or "goddammit"), but Quebec's is taken to a totally different level.

Canadians Are Cutting $20 Bills In Half To Create A New, Locals-Only Currency
The demi began when a visitor from France told Zibeau and friends about two alternative currencies circulating in his hometown of Nantes, alongside the Euro. They got to talking about the ins and outs of alternative bank notes, particularly the security aspect. "We joked about [how] the Canadian dollar is pretty secure," says Zibeau. That's when they came up with the idea of cutting Canadian bills in half, combining the benefits of a local currency with the power of a national anti-counterfeiting plan.

Jan 1 – Public Domain Day
In Canada, the works of T.S. Eliot, Winston Churchill, and Malcolm X will emerge into the public domain. Canadians can stage their own dramatizations of T.S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats (the basis for the Broadway show CATS), or add the full works of Churchill and Malcolm X to online archives, all without asking permission or violating the law. However, Canadians may have much less to celebrate next year. The recently released Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement ("TPP"), if ratified, would require Canada, along with 5 other countries, to add 20 years to its copyright term (expanding the term from 50 to 70 years after the author's death). This is happening at a time when there is a consensus among academics, economists, and policymakers—including two heads of the United States Copyright Office—that this term is a "big mistake." Why? Because its benefits are minuscule—economists (including five Nobel laureates) have shown that term extension does not spur additional creativity. At the same time, it causes enormous harm, locking away millions of older works that are no longer generating any revenue for the copyright holders. Films are literally disintegrating because preservationists can't digitize them. The works of historians and journalists are incomplete. Artists find their cultural heritage off limits. Estimates are that the yearly cost to Canada from this term extension could exceed 100 million Canadian dollars. (You can read about the works that won't enter Canada's public domain here.) Yet, against this backdrop, the TPP would nevertheless mandate the term extension. If "the definition of insanity is repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results," this would certainly qualify.

Should Men Have the Vote?
At the start of 1896, Ontario's women's suffrage movement found itself lacking momentum. Seeking to reignite public interest, the local branch of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, with the assistance of the Women's Enfranchisement Association, staged an unusual production at the Pavilion of the Horticultural Gardens. On the evening of February 18, 1896, seats and desks were arranged on the floor of the Pavilion so as to resemble the Ontario Legislature. The central feature of the evening's entertainment was the staging of a satirical mock parliament, in which an all-female parliament debated whether men should be granted the right to vote.

Реформа МВД — реформа в Министерстве внутренних дел России, проходившая в 2011—2012 годах с целью повышения эффективности работы правоохранительных органов России, в частности борьбы с коррупцией и улучшения имиджа правоохранительных органов, проведённая по инициативе президента России Дмитрия Медведева.

Предыстория
Первые шаги к реформе были сделаны в конце 2009 года, когда, после ряда громких преступлений, совершённых милиционерами (к примеру, дела Евсюкова), к теме о необходимости изменений привлечено значительное общественное внимание. 24 декабря 2009 Президент РФ подписал Указ «О мерах по совершенствованию деятельности органов внутренних дел Российской Федерации», предусматривающий в том числе:
 Сокращение до 1 января 2012 года численности МВД на 20 %,
 Рассмотрение вопроса об увеличении ассигнований для выплаты вознаграждения сотрудникам милиции, представить предложения по реформированию системы денежных выплат, оптимизировать количество профильных образовательных учреждений и др.,
 Пересмотр порядка отбора кандидатов для службы с учетом их морально-этических качеств и повышения профессионализма, исключить дублирование функций органов внутренних дел и др.

21 января 2010 года на заседании Ассоциации юристов России с участием главы МВД Рашида Нургалиева Сергей Степашин заявил, не раскрывая сути нововведения: «Милиции общественной безопасности, насколько я знаю — её больше не будет. И наверное, создание профессиональной полиции — это решение абсолютно правильное».

Обсуждение законопроекта
6 августа 2010 года президент России Дмитрий Медведев на совещании по вопросам реформирования МВД предложил уже на следующий день предоставить законопроект «О полиции» для всеобщего обсуждения в Интернете. Тогда же Медведев предложил переименовать милицию в полицию: «Нам нужны профессиональные люди, сотрудники, которые эффективны, честно и слаженно выполняют свою работу. Поэтому я считаю, что пришла пора вернуть органам правопорядка их имя — полиция».

7 августа 2010 года в открытом доступе с возможностью комментирования опубликован проект закона «О полиции», призванный заменить ФЗ «О милиции».

Согласно опросу, проведенному ВЦИОМ 14—15 августа 2010 года, 63 % россиян считали, что переименование милиции в полицию ничего не изменит, и в работе ведомства все останется по-прежнему. В целом, новый законопроект является продолжением политики, обратной той, которая проводилась в реформе 2002 года, то есть ещё большей централизации. Упраздняются институты милиции общественной безопасности и криминальной милиции. В отличие от милиции, частично подчинённой власти субъекта федерации, полиция с субъектом федерации (по законопроекту) не связана.

В уникальном для России онлайн-обсуждении законопроекта «О полиции» приняло участие около 5 миллионов человек. В результате, законопроект, по сравнению с первоначальным видом, претерпел значительные изменения, связанные с полномочиями новой структуры. В частности, исключены положения о том, что полицейские могут беспрепятственно проникать в помещения граждан, на принадлежащие им земельные участки, на территории, земельные участки и в помещения, занимаемые общественными объединениями и организациями, а также вызывавшая наибольшую критику «презумпция законности» полиции («требования сотрудника полиции, обращенные к гражданам и должностным лицам, и предпринимаемые им действия считаются законными до тех пор, пока в предусмотренном законом порядке не будет установлено иное»), хотя, по мнению оппозиционных политиков, данная формулировка была лишь завуалирована, а не исключена.

Принятие закона
Несмотря на критику со стороны определенных слоев общества и ряда оппозиционных политических партий, 10 декабря 2010 года законопроект принят Госдумой в первом чтении, а 28 января 2011 года — в заключительном чтении. За принятие закона высказались только единороссы. 314 депутатов поддержали закон, 131 высказались против, воздержавшихся не было. 7 февраля 2011 года президент Медведев подписал закон «О полиции». Первоначально планировалось, что новый закон вступит в силу уже с 1 января 2011 года, но позднее срок перенесен на 1 марта. Таким образом 1 марта 2011 года милиция в Российской Федерации официально прекратила своё существование, и с 1 января 2012 года вся символика милиции стала недействительной.

Закон предусматривает проведение внеочередной аттестации сотрудников внутренних дел, которая началась 1 марта 2011 года и должна была закончиться 1 мая 2011 года, но Медведев подписал указ о продлении сроков переаттестации, и аттестация была завершена 1 августа 2011 года. Переаттестация сотрудников началась с руководителей центрального аппарата и территориальных органов МВД, а затем её начали проходить старший, средний и младший начальствующий состав органов внутренних дел. Сотрудники, не прошедшие аттестацию или отказавшиеся от её прохождения, были уволены из рядов МВД.

Промежуточные результаты
В ходе реформы численность сотрудников органов внутренних дел сокращена на 22 %. В наибольшей степени сокращению подвергся аппарат управления. Существенно повышены социальные гарантии и денежное довольствие сотрудников полиции.

Согласно опросам ВЦИОМ, уровень доверия к органам внутренних дел в вопросах обеспечения личной и имущественной безопасности повысился с 33 % в 2009 году до 52 % в 2011 году. Также некоторые отмечали эффективность реформы в борьбе против т. н. «оборотней в погонах», работавших в милиции в 1990-х и 2000-х годах.

12 октября 2012 года министр внутренних дел Владимир Колокольцев заявил, что полученные в рамках первого этапа реформы МВД результаты оказались недостаточны и «не оправдали в полной мере ожидания граждан». Как отметил Колокольцев, ряд проблем всё ещё нуждается в решении, к таковым он отнёс «палочную систему», систему учёта сообщений о преступлениях и систему оценки эффективности работы полиции.

Оценки
В октябре 2013 года Министерство внутренних дел России охарактеризовало отрицательные последствия реформы:
в первую очередь сокращение штата полиции на 20 процентов, закрытие ряда специализированных учебных заведений, из-за чего снизилось качество подготовки полицейских, а также провал переаттестации его сотрудников.
