ICC World Cup 2019, WI vs BAN ODI: ProSports11 Fantasy Cricket Tips – Playing XI & Pitch Report
by PSL Desk
As the World Cup (WC) ramps up in intensity, Bangladesh (W1, L2, NR1) and the West Indies (W1, L2, NR1) compete in a 'must win' match for both teams at Taunton. Despite the Windies placing just ahead of Bangladesh in the ICC ODI rankings, the 'Tigers' have won the last four H2Hs on the spin.
The 'Men in Maroon', winners of the 1975 and 1979 editions, come into this match on the back of a heavy eight-wicket defeat at the hands of tournament favourites England. Batting first they managed just 212 all out in 44.4 overs, with Nicholas Pooran top scoring after his maiden ODI fifty (63). England then chased them down with 16.5 overs remaining with only Shannon Gabriel (2/29) showing any spirit.
The Windies looked clueless and depleted in that match and need a big turnaround in attitude if they are to qualify for the semis and improve on their recent record of five losses in their last ten ODIs (W4, NR1). Their cause will not be helped by the injuries sustained in that match, with Gabriel, Andre Russell, and Sheldon Cottrell all limping off during the England innings.
Bangladesh has had a week off to prepare for this game. They too come into this match having lost heavily against England in their most recent match. Being set 387 to win, they fell short by 106 runs in a respectable 280 all out, which included an eighth ODI century for Shakib al Hasan (121).
With Mushfiqur Rahim (141) and of course Shakib (260) prominent in the most runs chart, as well as Mo Saifuddin and Mehidy Hasan right up there with the ball having taken six and five wickets apiece, respectively, Bangladesh have talent in their squad, but they now need to knit together as a unit to have any chance of the semis.
They are a totally different outfit to the one that lost to the Windies by nine wickets in their last WC encounter in the 2011 edition, and with a fully fit squad, they will be looking to extend their recent dominance over the Windies.
Probable Playing XI
Chris Gayle, Evin Lewis, Shai Hope (wk), Nicholas Pooran, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Holder, Andre Russell, Carlos Brathwaite, Oshane Thomas, Shannon Gabriel, Sheldon Cottrell.
Tamim Iqbal, Soumya Sarkar, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mohammad Mithun, Mahmudullah, Mosaddek Hossain, Mohammad Saifuddin, Mehdiy Hasan, Mashrafe Mortaza, Mustafizur Rahman.
BAN vs WI – Players to watch out for
Soumya Sarkar (BAN) has been unlucky with his dismissals, but he is capable of making a big score and has an SR of 109.52.
Jason Holder's (WIN) captaincy has been really poor so far this WC. This will be his 79th ODI match in charge (win 29.49%) but he still needs to prove that he is the right man for the job.
Bangladesh averages just 1.5 sixes per match (6) at this WC compared to the Windies' average of 3.75 (15).
Bangladesh average 54.00 in the first Powerplay compared to the 55.33 by the Windies.
The highest team score in ODIs at Taunton is 373/6 (Ind v SL, 1999).
In the five ODIs played at Taunton, the team batting first has won three.

FIRST Minister Nicola Sturgeon has stripped Donald Trump of his status as a business ambassador for Scotland after he called for Muslims to be barred from entering America.
The US businessman and Republican presidential candidate has had his membership of the GlobalScot business network withdrawn after sparking outrage with his comments.
A Scottish Government spokeswoman said: "Mr Trump's recent remarks have shown that he is no longer fit to be a business ambassador for Scotland and the First Minister has decided his membership of the respected GlobalScot business network should be withdrawn with immediate effect."
Mr Trump had been a member of GlobalScot since being invited to join in 2006.
The network of business leaders, entrepreneurs and executives with a connection to Scotland was set up by Scottish Enterprise in 2001.
Ms Sturgeon previously described Mr Trump's comments as "obnoxious and offensive" and said they "do not represent the mainstream views of people across America."
More than 20,000 people have now signed a petition calling for him to be stripped of his honorary degree from Robert Gordon University (RGU) in Aberdeen , where he was awarded a Doctorate of Business Administration in October 2010.
The online petition was set up by Suzanne Kelly, a freelance investigative journalist and satirist based in Aberdeen, on campaigning website 38 Degrees.
It accuses the controversial businessman of "hate speech" and demands his degree be removed "with immediate effect".
The university has said that the award was made before the appointment of RGU's current principal Professor Ferdinand von Prondzynski, who is "considering the position".

This book initially takes the reader somewhat by surprise, as the main Character, 'Gregory Sallust' starts the ball rolling by sending a letter to Dennis Wheatley' admitting that DW has some grounds for complaint as it is eight years since he (GS) has provided material for a book. GS informs DW that he has been engaged on a private enterprise in China & the South Pacific for the previous year and has forwarded his notes on should DW wish to publish them.
From these notes, 'The Island where time stands still', evolves.
The prologue begins with Gregory and Erika enjoying a cruise on Sir Pellinore's yacht. The location is the central Pacific Ocean. All had been going so well until a vicious tempest had struck the region and the yacht is forced onto a submerged coral reef. The boat had disappeared. There was no sign of anybody. GS manages to hang on to an oar until he is eventually washed up on a shallow pool within the barrier reef of a volcanic island. Some local fishermen find him and they take him to a strange building. It is a long one-storied, flat roofed block that looked strictly utilitarian. It was built out of concrete slabs which had been whitewashed. It had been erected on a wide flat ledge of rock that jutted out from the cliff face. The cliff dropped sheer away and behind the building the cliff rose just as steeply. There is also an eight foot wire mesh fence totally surrounding the building. He later finds out that it is a holding place for immigrants. (Chapter one of this book is quite understandably called, 'The Cage').
A Dr Ho Ping speaks to GS (in English) and informs GS that he has a fractured skull and two broken ribs. He also tells him that he has landed on a small group of Islands known as the Manihiki's.
To Gregory's dismay there were no signs of any other survivors.
Dr Ping agrees to nurse Gregory back to health on condition that Gregory agrees to stay within the confines of the building.
The Emperor dies suddenly and A-Lu-Te and GS are asked to accompany the jovial Kao Hsuan (A-Lu-Te's Uncle) and the earnest Mandarin Tsai-Ping on a trip to San Francisco. As this is where the unknowing heir is currently living. There is an urgent need to install her to her natural position as she is the last heir to the imperial throne of China. She is known as Princess Josephine. She is dumb and can only communicate by hand signals, writing & drawing.
When the group eventually arrive in America they find out that the Princess is no longer in San Francisco. After many enquiries, they establish that the Princess was taken to Mongolia with a wealthy man named 'Lin Wan'.
Another ship & crew is organised to take them to China and a smaller vessel to get them to Yen-An on the borders of Mongolia. During this trip GS meets a stowaway (Foo Wang). GS takes him under his wing as his assistant and although he seems helpful things seem to keep going wrong and he becomes one of the major suspects.
After a journey of nearly 10,000 miles they arrive at the great house of Lin. He explains how he came into contact with her. Days later, Lin Wan is found dead.
Soon afterwards they meet with the princess (who can speak). Hold on - maybe it's not the real Princess. Her name is Shih – Niang and she admits to having been paid to impersonate the Princess. She begs GS to take her away. She tells him that she knows, 'The 70 Caresses and the 41 ways of attaining complete enjoyment'. (Tried to get a Wikipedia link but nothing like it unfortunately!!) She offers him the money that was given to her if he gets her out. Suddenly the door slides open, a knife is thrown which kills her. The killers disappear instantly and very soon after one of the senior Chinese leaders together with A–Lu-Te appear at the door. GS can't wait around to explain this dangerous situation and so he escapes up a nearby tree (like Charles II did) and then in the eaves of the building itself; hence the chapter, ' The Armpit of the Tortoise'; which has also been used before (They Used Dark Forces – chapter 15).
After a lengthy return to their ship by way of the Great Wall of China they catch up with the real villain of the peace who was responsible for all the pitfalls that had occurred since their arrival. On arrival back at the Manihiki's GS is forced to pit his wits against the real offenders who were after his blood & threatening him with all that went wrong on the trip. As the Hutchinson sleeve notes state sleeve notes state, "The plot is so intricate that up to the last page it will defy complete solution by the most expert analyst of detective mysteriesâ€ Enjoy.
Page 52 – DW brings to light another of his thoughts relating to habitual criminals.
Page 225 – During the boat trip to Mongolia the group stop at a riverside restaurant. In order to get to the table they climb up a ladder attached to the tree trunk. The table & chairs are then located on a small platform around the upper branches.
I also happened to notice that the chapter listing at the beginning of the book was generally incorrect. The first five chapters had the correct page number listed but the remaining nineteen were all wrong. Obviously someone at Arrow didn't check this when transferring info from the Hutchinson hardback.
This was my first reading of this book and I enjoyed it. The two instant recollections of the story is the 'dinner in the tree' and when GS was hiding in the bend of the roof as described above. It really conjured an image for me. It was the previous reviewer, Frank Linmarsh who pointed out in his excellent review that the book was great fun and I agree with him. However if I'm honest I don't think this GS novel is in the same high category as Gregorys previous books. This is probably because Contraband, Black August and the Second World War novels were so good. Otherwise it is a good read which would have been improved without the obligatory info dumps and the even more ponderous descriptions of the various situations.
And we all know what use DW made of that story, don't we?

Being a 17-year-old teen in a world-class human rights movement
After high school graduation, students may prepare themselves going to college or taking a gap year by exploring the world or doing a part time job. Instead, Pim Singhatiraj, a 17-year-old girl whom just graduated from high school, chose to do an internship at Amnesty International Thailand. Let's find out why by this interview.
What brought a 17-year-old girl to Amnesty?
I just graduated a high school. Ever since a few years ago I always have this dream of taking a gap semester or a gap year before going to college. So instead of going straight away to university I want and I want time to do other thing. Basically I applied to a university, I got accepted, I'm going to Middlebury College in the Vermont in the US and I'm really excited about that. So I have this time to fill up, and I always dream to filling that gap year of traveling. But half a year of traveling is very excessive. So I tried to find other way to fill up and I thought of doing internship. And I chose AI because I have been involved with AI in high school for 2 years.
Could you tell me more about the club?
I graduated from International School Bangkok. At international school, they tend to have a lot of clubs and Amnesty was one of them. The first year I joined I was just a member, but the second year I became an officer. So I played a larger role in planning events and planning the W4R event and everything. And I knew P' May (Activism officer) through Amnesty at ISB. I remembered her telling us if anyone wanted to do an internship you can contact her, and I did. I'm really excited to have this opportunity of 2 months of work experiences.
What kind of activities that the club has?
ISB hosted a write for rights event every single year and we call it light up night. So that's always the event that happens. I think with every year it changes, last year we focused a bit on refugees at the end of the year. P'May brought them in and we got to talk to them. But AI and ISB was really good is that it helps students learn more about activism. Youth is activism is the idea of it.
Why are you interested in human rights work?
Because I've always been interested in the social sciences and humanities, that's what I will study in university. Even though human rights work and NGO work is something that I'm learning about right now. I think eventually I want to go to education and become a teacher and teach at international school. But Why Amnesty and Human rights, I think because I have a strong connection with AI in high school. And also I did Model for United Nations for 2 years. And I love history and politics. Basically everything in high school led me into something in human rights.
Daily roles and responsibilities
I work with Activism, P'May is my supervisor. Right now I'm working on an event that is upcoming this Sunday. I wrote a proposal, I checked up a location for my supervisor. I'm buying materials, I'm thinking of activities and everything. So that's a rather big task. But smaller tasks that I have, writing emails, reading actions curricular and summarizing them for my supervisor.
What do you think about negative perception of activist as a radical?
The thing is I kinda accept the fact that I am more radical than Thai people so that doesn't bother me that much. Because I can't pretend and be conservative that's not who I am. Because I was raised with more open-minded values. I know that activism has a negative connotation but I was raised in an international community which makes it ok for me to be different.
Human rights issue that you're interested right now?
A lot of my work centers around refugees, and especially because I attend 3 -4 days workshop about the issue. It's something I become knowledgeable in more that I was in the past. Maybe not compared to the others in the office. It's something that I can feel like can work on because I've been to the meeting with Asylum Access Thailand. And now I'm planning an event for refugees for their community.
Challenging part so far since doing the internship
The first week was hard because even though I've done short term internships before, but this something that I had committed to for 2 months. The work that my supervisor assigned me, it was good work, but the thing is I didn't know how to continue with it. And I could have asked my supervisor for more information for help, but I saw her busy with her own work. So I was sitting there, kind of miserable (laugh). But after a while I started asking questions, and she started trusting more in me, she started giving me some her own workload like small tasks, and once she gave me more tasks I felt a lot more my work was full filling which is a really good thing. But that's also challenging because now I'm busy. Someday are very busy and I go home with a headache, but at least I know that my work is full filing so it's ok (laugh).
What does the term "Human rights" mean to you?
I think it's always a heard question to answer because it's a large concept. I think of world where everyone has human rights, there will be no longer a day in which people open the news and see something like ethnic cleansing that's going in Myanmar right now. If people don't see those things and they don't think "Oh this happened in history, but why is it going now?, we need to learn from these mistakes but it keeps happening and happening" If one day we no longer think and see stuff like that on the news, I think that's a day where human rights are achieved universally.

Meanwhile, Alhaji Aminu Gwadabe, President, Association of Bureau De Change Operators of Nigeria (ABCON), said in spite of the depletion of the external reserves, the commitment of the CBN to maintain exchange rate stability was not in doubt.
"Our reserves still cover more than three years of our imports.
"We are in good position and besides with the strained relationship between Iran and USA, we are likely going to witness soaring oil prices.
"The diversification and ban on 41 items is still helping the reserve," Gwadabe said.
The ABCON chief expressed optimism that the remaining four months period to election could not significantly distort the sustained exchange rate stability .
He said that the CBN was determined to deal appropriately with any act of misbehaviour and wrong doing in the market.
"The CBN is adopting both supervision and market intelligence to effectively regulate the market," Gwadabe added.

In the summer 2023, SEASSI plans to offer Burmese, Filipino, Hmong, Indonesian, Javanese, Khmer, Lao, Thai, and Vietnamese language classes for students at a distance, in conjunction with our classes in the regular college classroom setting. No more than two distance "seats" will be available per class. The following pages contain information about our distance learning classes. If you are interested in enrolling in distance learning at SEASSI, please read all of the following information carefully!
Distance Learning Guidelines
Thai language cohort with distance learning students
In addition to the general SEASSI Summer 2023 Application Form, prospective distance learners applicants should address in their Personal Statement or in a separate file: the medical, personal, family, professional, or other reasons why you are unable to travel to Madison for classes this summer, how you will ensure that you will be available at the given class times (8:00am-12:30pm Central Time, Monday-Friday), and be able to make time for sufficient homework/review (4-5 hours daily).
Please Note: All SEASSI courses are subject to cancellation dependent on student interest. Similarly, distance learning applications will be reviewed and decided on based on course availability and available facilities. We encourage those interested in the distance learning option to reach out to the SEASSI office early in the application cycle as limited opportunities for distance learning are available.
See below for frequently asked questions.
This is an accordion element with a series of buttons that open and close related content panels.
2023 Program Dates and Times
Online classes will begin on Monday, June 19, 2023 and will extend through Friday, August 11, 2023.
Online classes will be held Mondays through Fridays, 8:00 am to 12:30 pm, Central Daylight Time.
Online class format and student expectations
In keeping with our commitment to the development of communicative ability, SEASSI online instruction will be synchronous, intensive, and tightly scheduled. Rather than individual work, instruction will be classroom-based, that will involve students at different locations working together in a synchronous format. Work and study approaches will differ according to language and level, but students will have to prepare for each session by completing assigned work and will be expected to participate actively while online.
Depending on the number of distance students who want to enroll in a SEASSI class, you might be in a class that is composed entirely of distance education students, or you might be in a class where some students meet face-to-face with the instructor while others participate from remote locations. The format we will be able to offer you will depend on the number of students enrolling in the class. For more information, please contact us by email or telephone at 608-265-2652.
Academic Goals
The goal of SEASSI is to teach the equivalent of an entire academic year (two semesters) of language instruction over the course of the intensive summer program. This is a full academic load. In addition to classroom time (8:00 am to 12:30 pm Central) Mondays through Fridays, distance education students should expect to spend anywhere from three to five hours per day on homework assignments. This is the same homework load as that expected of SEASSI students in a traditional classroom setting. Given the intensive nature of the program, students are advised not to take other courses for credit during SEASSI.
Where should I conduct my distance courses?
Participation from a distant location will require a high speed, wired internet connection. Distance students are required to create a learning environment for themselves that is free from noise, foot traffic, or other distractions. A café or shopping mall would not provide an appropriate setting.
We recommend that students take advantage of the resources available at local college or university language labs. A typical college language lab offers very high-speed internet connections, powerful computers, good-quality headsets, and an environment that is ideal for language learning.
Computer System and Equipment Requirements:
Depending on the number of online students signed up for a SEASSI class, online participation will occur in one of three ways: internet video conferencing, two-way interactive videoconferencing, or virtual attendance in a live classroom via a laptop. SEASSI administrative staff will work closely with each distance education student about which mode of online presence will be used in his/her case.
It is imperative that each distance student be at a wired (i.e., NOT wireless/Wi-Fi) broadband connection, so that all audio and video signals are as fast as possible. You will be expected to work with SEASSI tech support staff, prior to the beginning of classes, to test out your computer equipment and internet connection. It is extremely disruptive to the instructor and classmates when a distance student's signal is weak, choppy or frozen. The distant student is responsible for maintaining adequate bandwidth and computer speed to ensure smooth, clear audio and video signals. Distance students who fail to do so will be asked to leave the class until the technical issues are resolved, and no tuition refund will be given to distance students in this circumstance.
The minimum requirements of your computer system for this mode of instruction are standard for most current computers:
4 GB RAM minimum, more recommended
20 MB free disk space
Headset with microphone/headphones, or speakers and a good-quality echo-canceling Microphone
Wireless connection of 360kbps minimum (required) or wired broadband internet connection (recommended)
Are there different types of video-conferencing for distance learners?
Yes. See below:
Internet video conferencing: If we have four or five online students all enrolling in the same class, we will create a separate, online section of that class. Students will meet online with their instructor via Zoom.
Interactive two-way videoconferencing: SEASSI will have access to at least one interactive two-way videoconferencing (ITV) unit. We anticipate using this for a class that has a small enrollment (2 or 3 students) on the UW-Madison campus and 1 or 2 additional students who want to participate from a distance. In this scenario, one teacher will incorporate both face-to-face and distance students into one class, using the videoconferencing technology. You, the online student in this mode, will be connecting to the ITV unit either via personal computer or via an ITV unit on your home campus. As with internet videoconferencing, you will be expected to work with SEASSI tech support staff, prior to the beginning of classes, to test out your computer equipment and internet connection.
Virtual attendance in a live classroom via a laptop: In some classes, we may be able to incorporate one or two distant students into our regular summer classrooms. In this model, the distant student is "present" on a desk in a language classroom via a laptop. The online students in this mode will be connecting to the tablet in the classroom via a desktop or high-quality laptop computer. Each distance education student will be expected to work with SEASSI tech support staff, prior to the beginning of classes, to test out his/her computer equipment and internet connection.
What to expect in an online language classroom environment
Our instructional staff are experts in language teaching, and many of them have decades of teaching experience. They are truly gifted, wonderful teachers! Teaching language online, however, will be a rather new experience for many of our instructors, and we expect that teachers may occasionally run into software or equipment problems requiring technical support. SEASSI tech support staff will assist in resolving such problems as quickly as possible. Students should also expect to occasionally run into software or equipment problems. In the months and weeks prior to instruction, SEASSI tech support staff will work with each individual distance education student to work out as many technical difficulties as possible, and will similarly assist after classes begin.
Learning a second language in a distance format will always be more challenging than face-to-face in a classroom. We strongly recommend that students attend SEASSI in person, rather than online, if at all possible. If you cannot attend SEASSI in person, however, our goal is to make your online learning experience as productive and positive as possible.
What is the greatest challenge in an online, synchronous classroom?
Ultimately, the greatest challenge in an online, synchronous learning environment like SEASSI distance education is that each student in the classroom (i.e., each "node" of linked computers) has an enormous impact on the success of everyone's learning. The classroom functions only as well as the slowest computer in the group. Therefore, SEASSI reserves the right to deny or revoke admission to a student who is unwilling to take the steps necessary to fix connection or equipment problems.
Problem: Audio system echos
Use a headset or headphones with a microphone, and make sure all other microphones and speakers connected to your machine are turned off.
Problem: Video signal is jerky/frozen/not in sync with audio
1) Make sure you have a broadband connection.
2) Make sure you are connected to it by a wire. Wireless connections are far slower than wired connections and will not be acceptable.
3) Use a computer that has a fast microprocessor speed, and a dedicated graphics card.
Problem: Audio signal is delayed


We wish to spread a simple message: you don't need to live on the islands to dress like you do! Hawaiian "aloha" shirts were first introduced back in the 1030s and have since become a fashion staple. These island-inspired shirts are steeped with the essence of aloha, capturing the beauty, tranquility, and cheerfulness of island life with their distinctive designs and colors. Aloha shirts have moved beyond the realm of seasonal or vacation wear and have come to represent a state-of-mind. We encourage everyone to experience a bit of this wearable aloha spirit for themselves!

Marthinus Lourens de Villiers (né le  à Paarl dans la colonie du Cap et mort le  à Wellington en Afrique du Sud) est un compositeur sud-africain, auteur de la musique de Die Stem van Suid-Afrika, hymne national d'Afrique du Sud de 1928 à 1997 et depuis cette date, co-hymne national sud-africain combiné avec Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika. M.L. de Villiers a également été révérend de l'église réformée hollandaise de 1912 à 1930.

Biographie
Fils de Dirk de Villiers, organiste de l'église réformée hollandaise, et de Tina Smith, il est initié très jeune au piano, à l'orgue et au violon par ses parents, propriétaires d'un institut de musique à Wellington. Il s'initie plus tard à la clarinette et joue au sein de la fanfare de Wellington.

Il obtient son baccalauréat en 1904, un an après avoir publié sa première composition pour piano.

De 1905 à 1907, M.L. de Villiers enseigne la musique à Wepener dans l'État libre d'Orange. Il y fonde une fanfare, compose et est organiste de l'Église réformée hollandaise. Il étudie ensuite de 1908 à 1911 au séminaire de théologie à Stellenbosch, époque durant laquelle il s'intéresse et s'implique dans la défense de la langue afrikaans face à l'anglais. D'ascendance britannique mais aussi boer, il est aussi marqué par les destructions de la seconde guerre des Boers, par les efforts de reconstruction de la population, par ses amitiés, notamment avec l'ancien président Marthinus Steyn. Il devient progressivement un militant pro-Afrikaner.

De 1912 à 1918, il est révérend de l'église réformée hollandaise à la congrégation de Glen Lynden (Bedford).

De 1919 à 1921, alors qu'il est en poste à l'église réformée de Simonstown, il suit les cours de rythme et d'harmonie du professeur Henry Bell du South African College of Music.

En 1921, M.L. de Villiers compose la musique pour un poème de Cornelis Jacobus Langenhoven intitulé Die Stem van Suid-Afrika appelé à devenir en 1928 l'hymne officiel de l'Union sud-africaine, au côté du God save the King, puis son seul hymne national de 1957 à 1994. Beaucoup d'autres de ses compositions sont publiées dans les années vingt.

M.L. de Villiers s'installe à Wellington dans les années 1930. Il abandonne sa charge ministérielle au sein de l'église et effectue jusqu'en 1945 de nombreux récitals, concerts et conférences à travers les écoles de musique du pays.

Récompensé et célébré durant le reste de sa vie, il meurt le  à Wellington à l'âge de 91 ans.

En 1997, Die Stem van Suid-Afrika est combiné avec Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika pour former l'actuel hymne national d'Afrique du Sud. La version de Die Stem, raccourcie, constitue la deuxième partie de l'hymne.

Vie privée
En 1911, M.L. de Villiers épouse Jemima ( Mimie ) Susanna du Plessis avec qui il a deux filles et deux fils. L'un de ses petits-fils, Johan de Villiers, a été chef de la Chorale de l'Université de Stellenbosch tandis que l'une de ses petites-filles, Suzanne, est devenue violoniste.

Abbevillian biface flake from the Douro river region near Valladolid, Spain. It is unretouched and is not distinguishable from Olduwan. The one small spot of smaller flaking on one edge may indicate that it is borderline between Olduwan and Acheulean. Both are found in Europe.
Abbevillian (formerly also Chellean) is a term for the oldest lithic industry found in Europe, dated to between roughly 600,000 and 400,000 years ago.
The original artifacts were collected from road construction sites on the Somme river near Abbeville by a French customs officer, Boucher de Perthes. He published his findings in 1836. Subsequently, Louis Laurent Gabriel de Mortillet (1821–1898), professor of prehistoric anthropology at the School of Anthropology in Paris, published (1882) "Le Prehistorique, antiquité de l'homme", in which he was the first to characterize periods by the name of a site.
Chellean included artifacts discovered at the town of Chelles, a suburb of Paris. They are similar to those found at Abbeville. Later anthropologists substituted Abbevillian for Chellean, the latter which is no longer in use.
Abbevillian tool users were the first archaic humans in Europe, classified as either late Homo erectus as Homo antecessor or as Homo heidelbergensis.
The label Abbevillian prevailed until the Leakey family discovered older (yet similar) artifacts at Olduvai Gorge (a.k.a. Oldupai Gorge), starting in 1959, and promoted the African origin of man. Olduwan (or Oldowan) soon replaced Abbevillian in describing African and Asian paleoliths. The term Abbevillian is still used, but it is now restricted to Europe. The label, however, continues to lose popularity as a scientific designation.
Mortillet had portrayed his traditions as chronologically sequential. In the Abbevillian, early Palaeolithic hominins used cores; in the Acheulian, flakes. Olduwan tools, however, indicate that in the earliest Palaeolithic, the distinction between flake and core is less clear. Consequently, there also is a tendency to view Abbevillian as an early phase of Acheulian.
The Abbevillian type site is on the 150-foot terrace of the River Somme. Tools found there are rough chipped bifacial handaxes made during the Elsterian Stage of the Pleistocene Ice Age, which covered central Europe between 478,000 and 424,000 years ago.
The Abbevillian culture bearers are not believed to have evolved in Europe, but to have entered it from further east. It was thus preceded by the earlier Olduwan of Homo erectus, and the Upper Acheulian, of which Clactonian and Tayacian are considered phases, supplanted it. The Acheulian there went on into the Levalloisian and Mousterian are associated with Neanderthal man.
To avoid the question of what culture name should be used to describe European artifacts, some, such as Schick and Toth, refer to "non-handaxe" and "handaxe" sites. Handaxes came into use at about the 500,000 ya mark.[nb 2] Non-handaxe sites are often the same sites as handaxe sites, the difference being one of time, or, if geographically different, have no discernible spatial pattern. The physical evidence is summarized in the table below Note that the dates assigned vary widely after 700,000 ya and, except where substantiated by scientific methods, should be viewed as tentative and on the speculative side.
Arago Cave near the village of Tautavel in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France. A community of about 100 individuals discovered over the years in the ongoing excavations of the cave by a team of the Centre Européen de Recherches Préhistoriques de Tautavel under the direction of Henry de Lumley. Excavations began in 1964, the first mandible came to light in 1969, and the first "Tautavel Man" in 1971, though in fact many subsequent Tautavel men and women appeared. The date range is a fairly secure 690,000-300,000 years ago by many methods. The prevailing view is that the fossils are intermediary to the Neanderthals. Tools were found as well.
Barnfield Pit near Swanscombe in Kent, England Portions of a skull excavated from a gravel pit by Alvin T. Marston in 1935-36 along with handaxes and animal bones. Two more pieces and some charcoal were found in 1955 by John Wymer. Estimated date 250,000 ya.
Boxgrove, outside Chichester, Great Britain. Shin bone & two teeth found in 1994 and 1996 in a quarry, with butchered animal bones and handaxes, ca. 500,000 ya.
Mauer near Heidelberg, Germany Mauer 1 (lower jaw & tooth) discovered 1907 in a gravel pit. Dated to 600,000-250,000 ya.
Petralona cave in Chalcidice, Greece. Skull found in a cave with animal bones, stone tools and evidence of fire in 1960. Studied by Aris Poulianos, given various dates. ESR date range is 240,000-160,000, but all other fossils associated indicate a much older date circa 800,000.
Sima de los huesos, "pit of bones", a chimney site in a cave, one of many fossil hominin sites in the hills of Atapuerca, Castile-Leon, Spain About 4,000 Hominin bones from which about 30 individuals have been reconstructed since the mid-1970s. Bones of carnivores are mixed in and a handaxe was found in 1998. Date is 500,000-350,000 ya.
Steinheim an der Murr, north of Stuttgart, Germany. Skull found in 1933 by Karl Sigrist, currently dated to about 250,000 ya.
near Budapest Occipital bone and a few teeth excavated 1964-65 in a quarry site that was in the open and used for butchery by László Vértes. Human fossils were with a hearth, dwelling, tools, footprints, plant and animal fossils.
^ An important point to remember is that tool-makers advanced at different rates throughout the globe. For example, the style of tool-making that is called Abbevillian was practiced at a different time period in Africa than in Europe.
^ Acheulean or later Acheulean, dated to 500,000-100,000 ya.

If you missed it — and if you're gainfully employed you probably did — last Thursday was "Weed Day," or as cannabis aficionados like to call it, uhhh 4/20 man. The term, we're told, was coined in 1971 by a group of California fast time high school students who would meet at 4:20 p.m. every day after class to smoke pot. For reasons known only to slacker school administrators around the country, the 4/20 movement evolved into an annual occasion for mass stoner bakeouts in leaf-friendly cities like Denver, San Francisco, and Seattle. Totally awesome.
We mention this year's ganja fest for its rather tasty investment irony. As it turns out, while Spicoli was idly firing up a fattie, Mr. Hand was busy buying up shares of the world's first-ever medical marijuana ETF. True enough, the Horizons Medical Marijuana Life Sciences ETF, ticker symbol HMMJ (clever) on the Toronto Stock Exchange, drew in a cool 100 million Canadian dollars in its first two weeks of trading. Like totally man, that's some sweet action.
By all appearance, the hemp ETF is appealing to the non-pothead-crowd with money, i.e., investors, because it offers a toke on the rapidly expanding weed business. Problem is, the little fund is pushing an industry that's still quite green and made up mostly of sketchy stocks with very small market values. Totally schwag.
It's well known that big flows into ETFs tracking small assets of any strain can make the underlying stocks more volatile as money flows into and out of the product. If HTTJ keeps growing at its current pace, it could become the latest experiment in what happens when a popular ETF is overlaid on a wacky market. Total buzz kill.
Amid a small and murky drip of first quarter earnings reports, stocks were generally mixed across the period. Boosted by not-awful numbers from Netflix, the NASDAQ and smaller-cap indexes outperformed losing efforts from the bigger-cap benchmarks. Disappointing results from Goldman Sachs, IBM, and Johnson & Johnson weighed heaviest on the narrowly focused Dow Industrial Average.
Uncertainty about tax reform and other economic and political issues also contributed to the market's mixed results. The Federal Reserve's Beige Book — a so-called summary of economic conditions — indicated concerns over fiscal policy at the same time it indicated a pattern of solid wage gains. On the positive side, assurances from the Treasury Secretary that the new Administration's tax reform plans were progressing appeared to drive a late rally.
On the fixed income side, Treasury prices stayed in a tight range, with longer-term yields remaining near their five-month lows. Investment-grade corporates also went sideways as traders focused on new issuance, most notably a highly-anticipated batch of U.S. bank issues that just hit the market. The high yield space was quiet, while tax-free bonds benefited from a light new issuance calendar.
The post-election rally has clearly faded a bit, and bond yields have more recently declined. This combination of events has sparked concern that we may be entering a period of weaker global economic growth, possibly even an end to the years-long equity bull market. Based on our ongoing analysis of equity and fixed income sectors, we doubt this is the case.
Even with the markets taking a pause to see if the economy and profits can catch up to the latest valuation expansion, we're still finding attractive investments for the Fund Architect portfolios. On the equity side, we're seeing good results from our Global Technology and Global Infrastructure selections, while our move to Preferred Stocks has helped us nicely on the fixed income side.
Equity market consolidation and downward pressure on yields may persist for the near-term, and there's reason to think that volatility will remain relatively elevated. We acknowledge that some downside risks are growing, but also believe that both bond yields and stock prices should climb over the next 6 to 12 months. Most importantly, we expect our systematic and flexible approach to keep finding good investment opportunities in the global market.

Q: Angular 6: How to change page background-color dynamically I work on an Angular 6 app (with Bootstrap 4) and need to change the page background color depending on which page the user enters. Default is white, but for login and registration screen the page color needs to be blue.
What I found so far:

*

*in ngAfterViewInit() using
this.elementRef.nativeElement.ownerDocument: this approach makes the
app more vulnerable to XSS attacks and I want to avoid that.

*Set View Encapsulation to None in app.component.ts: this way I can
set the body color in the app.component, that is 1 step forward.

So, now I have in my app.component.css:
body {
  background-color: blue;
}

Question:
How can I change that color value (in app.component) using a variable?

*

*With [ngStyle] I can not reach the body background-color.

*Maybe using a css variable? but how can I change the value of that css variable dynamically?

*I'm new to Sass, but might this offer a solution?

My question is different from the other question on this subject as I need to be able tochange the color value dynamically.

A: use render2 and set class to body using document object
app.component.ts
constructor(private renderer: Renderer2) {
this.renderer.addClass(document.body, 'body-class');
}

Note: if you are toggling classes, just remove previous class before assigning new class

A: The way I would do it is based on the routes. When defining the routes, you can add extra data, for example a class name.
When the route changes (i.e. via navigation), the data from the active route can be used to set the class on the body tag.
This is how you can achieve this

*

*Update the styles.css to add different classes for body:

body {
  ...
}

body.red {
  background-color: #ff8181;
}

body.blue {
  background-color: #a0c3ee;
}

*Update the routes to add extra data, specifying the body class name. Add an extra data property, like bodyClass:

const routes: Routes = [
  { path: '', component: DefaultComponent },
  { path: 'red', component: RedComponent, data: { bodyClass: 'red' } },
  { path: 'blue', component: BlueComponent, data: { bodyClass: 'blue' } }
];

*Write the code to read the bodyClass and set the class to the body element when navigation occurs. This can be done in the app.component.ts:

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  template: `
    <div>
      <router-outlet></router-outlet>
      <app-menu></app-menu>
    </div>
  `
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  constructor(
    @Inject(DOCUMENT) private document,
    private renderer: Renderer2,
    private router: Router,
    private activatedRoute: ActivatedRoute) {
  }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.router.events
      .pipe(filter((event) => event instanceof NavigationEnd))
      .pipe(map(() => this.activatedRoute))
      .pipe(map((route) => {
        while (route.firstChild) {
          route = route.firstChild;
        }
        return route;
      }))
      .pipe(filter((route) => route.outlet === 'primary'))
      .pipe(mergeMap((route) => route.data))
      .subscribe((event) => this.updateBodyClass(event.bodyClass));
  }

  private updateBodyClass(customBodyClass?: string) {
    this.renderer.setAttribute(this.document?.body, 'class', '');
    if (customBodyClass) {
      this.renderer.addClass(this.document?.body, customBodyClass);
    }
  }
}

Here is a demo on StackBlitz: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-rs1tai

A: Why not just define a separate class based on different background-color? For instance:
.blue {
  background: blue
}

.green {
  background: green
}

.grey {
  background: grey
}

And then set these classes on the body using ng-class or ngClass whatever convention you use based on the page. This should be fairly easy to implement.

A: My favourite approach for doing stuff like this is to add a class to html tag depending on the route. For example, we have some code in our basic layout component (you could put it in your root component) that does this inside ngOnInit:
let wrapper = ''
const path = this.activatedRoute.snapshot.routeConfig.path
wrapper += this.tidyPath(path)
if (wrapper !== '') wrapper += '-'
const childPath = this.activatedRoute.snapshot.firstChild.routeConfig.path
wrapper += this.tidyPath(childPath)
this.routeWrapperCssClass = wrapper
$('html').addClass(this.routeWrapperCssClass)

This will add a class to your html tag to make it look like this (although you may have to tweak this code to suit your app):
<html class="registration">
    ....
</html>

The class will be instantly updated whenever you change route.
Now you can do this in your main stylesheet:
body {
    background-color: pink;
}

html.registration body {
    background-color: yellow;
}

You could also do things like hide elements based on the class added to the html tag like so:
.navbar {
  display: block;
}

html.registration .navbar {
  display: none;
}

Because you know what route you are on at all times you have total control via CSS.
PS you may want to use render2 instead of jQuery to do the DOM manipulation - see this article ... https://alligator.io/angular/using-renderer2 ... never used it myself before but almost identical to jQuery syntax - thanks to Pratap A.K answer for this

A: Personally i replace :
<body>
<app-root></app-root>
</body>

to
<app-root></app-root>

and then i add all the time the body on components or if i have multi
router-outlets i add it on app.component.css

Birds live and breed in most terrestrial habitats and on all seven continents, reaching their southern extreme in the snow petrel's breeding colonies up to 440 kilometres (270 mi) inland in Antarctica.
The highest bird diversity occurs in tropical regions. It was earlier thought that this high diversity was the result of higher speciation rates in the tropics, however recent studies found higher speciation rates in the high latitudes that were offset by greater extinction rates than in the tropics.
Several families of birds have adapted to life both on the world's oceans and in them, with some seabird species coming ashore only to breed and some penguins have been recorded diving up to 300 metres (980 ft).
Many bird species have established breeding populations in areas to which they have been introduced by humans. Some of these introductions have been deliberate; the ring-necked pheasant, for example, has been introduced around the world as a game bird.
Others have been accidental, such as the establishment of wild monk parakeets in several North American cities after their escape from captivity.
Some species, including cattle egret, yellow-headed caracara and galah, have spread naturally far beyond their original ranges as agricultural practices created suitable new habitat.

Dead By Daylight Is A Recently Announced Asymmetrical Survival-Horror Game
on 6th of February 2016 @ 01:51 am UTC
You know how in every game that features rogueish characters there's that one guy that just never fights fair and always seems to stalk people for way too long before finally catching them off guard and getting an easy kill? What would you say if I told you there's an entire game being built around that concept?
Dead by Daylight is a recently announced asymmetrical survival-horror game where a group of four survivors needs to complete a series of objectives and make their escape while the fifth player controls the deranged psychopath that is out to isolate and destroy them one by one. Here's the developer diary explaining the concept in a bit more detail:
The whole idea behind Dead by Daylight stems from the fact that people, when stressed, become highly unreliable and start making some strange decisions which result in very compelling gameplay. The stress factor in this case is an assortment of monsters and psychopaths, each with their own unique abilities and tactics, that are in a constant and relentless pursuit of the survivors.
The player that takes on the role of the stalker will view the game through a first person perspective and will have many tools available to him that ensure he'll be able to both locate and capitalize on any weakness that might appear among the survivors. The four co-op players on the other hand will play the game in a third person perspective giving them much better situational awareness at the cost of being able to easily notice ground-based traps.
In order to ensure that the game doesn't become "solved" and that the monsters remain monstrous the maps will be procedural generated. In other words, you'll never know if you are completely safe (hint: you're probably not) or if you are walking yourself in to a dead end from which escape will be rather tricky if you get found.
Dead by Daylight is still in very early stages of development but if Starbreeze is so excited to be publishing it I have high hopes. But for now we can only wait and see how the project develops.

Choline Alone May Improve Maternal DHA Status During Pregnancy
Independently of additional DHA intake, choline supplementation resulted in higher DHA status in maternal and umbilical cord blood.
Multi-Strain Probiotic Improves Self-Reported Mood, Sleep, Serotonin Levels
Boosting the maternal intake of choline may provide a boost to a pregnant mother's DHA status, even when no additional DHA is consumed, according to a new study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Essentially, the study found that a woman consuming a fixed amount of supplemental DHA would have greater DHA status should they consume a greater amount of choline.
In the present study, a team of researchers at Cornell University led by Kevin Klatt sought to determine the impact of choline supplementation on DHA status during pregnancy. DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid which accumulates in the brain and eyes, which is evidenced to play a critical role in an infant's development and through the lifespan. These findings follow previous clinical research published earlier this year which demonstrated significant and enduring cognitive benefits to children born of mothers who consumed double the amount of choline during pregnancy.
In both of these clinical trials conducted by the team of Cornell researchers, VitaCholine from Balchem was used. The findings of the present study were particularly consequential, because this is the first time that elevated maternal DHA status was driven solely by increasing maternal choline intake.
"Choline and DHA work together to support a baby's brain and eye development, and that's why we're excited to see this new data showing that a combination of VitaCholine and DHA results in superior DHA status in expectant mothers – far better than supplementing with DHA alone," Tom Druke, marketing director of VitaCholine, said.
In this study, 30 pregnant participants were recruited during the second trimester of their pregnancies. All participants were given 200 mg/day DHA. They were randomized to receive either 25 or 550 mg/day of supplemental choline, with maternal blood draws taken regularly until delivery, at which point, markers of DHA status in umbilical cord blood were assessed.
For the group of mothers receiving 550 mg choline during their pregnancy, the mean increase in PC-DHA was 32%, along with a 38% increase in total red blood cell DHA. The low-dose choline group saw just an 8% decrease in PC-DHA, along with an 11% increase in total red blood cell DHA.
"Prenatal choline supplementation improves hepatic DHA export and biomarkers of DHA status by bolstering methyl group supply for PEMT activity among pregnant participants consuming supplemental DHA," the authors of the study concluded.
Recommended intake of choline increases during pregnancy, and the adequate intake of this nutrient is evidenced to support the growth and development of a child's brain and spinal cord. As a building block of phosphatidylcholine, it aids in the transport of lipids such as DHA to various tissues throughout the body, which, in pregnant women, includes the placenta.
Based on the synergistic interaction observed in this study, "existing clinical trials of prenatal DHA supplementation likely achieved non-maximal status, resulting from a limited methyl donor supply," the authors noted.
"Earlier we saw the positive impact of higher maternal VitaCholine intakes on cognitive processing speeds during infancy and the subsequent improvements to focus and sustained attention in the same kids at the age of seven. Now, this new research highlights a dual role for choline in early life – boosting cognitive performance and increasing DHA uptake to support growing brains. This powerful pairing is critical to enhancing brain development in both the short and long-term," said Shitij Chabba, vice president of minerals and nutrients, and human nutrition and health marketing at Balchem, the supplier of VitaCholine.
"The American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans have all highlighted the importance of choline during pregnancy and throughout early childhood in supporting neurological development," Druke said. "Unfortunately, fewer than 10% of women of childbearing age in the United States are getting even the recommended amount of choline in their diets," he noted, citing a study of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data from 2009-2014 datasets. "These most recent data provide yet another compelling piece of evidence, demonstrating choline's importance for expecting mothers and their children."

Canadians Make Mark on SuperTour
by The Academy Team | Dec 11, 2014 | Athletes
Justin Brisbane, Rocky Mountain Outlook December 11, 2014
Patrick Stewart-Jones took gold in the U.S. SuperTour classic sprints while Alysson Marshall was fifth, as Canada's development skiers challenged skiers south of the border in Bozeman, Montana on Saturday (Dec. 6).
For Stewart-Jones, the cross-country win was sweet revenge after a broken pole foiled his sprint last weekend in West Yellowstone.
"I was definitely extra motivated after last weekend. It's tough when things don't go your way in the first race of the season, but you have to stay confident in the training you've done and not dwell on sub-par races, which is something I haven't always been that good at in the past," Stewart-Jones said.
In the final, Stewart-Jones relied on slick skis to carry the day, making his move on the final downhill to edge out American Ben Saxton.
"The course here was mostly uphill for the first half and mostly downhill for the second half. I went with minimal grip so that I would have fast skis. I just tried to stay in contention on the climbs and use my fast skis on the downhills. I was fourth at the top of the course, but moved into first on the downhill and from there just tried to hold on. It wasn't quite a photo finish, but it was pretty close," Stewart-Jones said.
Marshall was on top of the podium last weekend in the sprints, but ran out of gas in the final. American Rosie Brennan took gold.
"I was happy with my qualifier today, but struggled a bit as it got warmer and the snow became slushy and slow. I made it into the final, but ran out of steam and wasn't really in contention," Marshall said.
The U.S. SuperTour has been a mixed bag for the Canadians, as they've had strong results against new competitors, but organizationally, the races have been plagued with timing issues.
"It's a chance to race against people you aren't used to competing against, which is a big thing," said Stewart-Jones. "Sometimes it's too easy to get used to racing the same people all the time in Canada. You start to know their strengths and weaknesses and race accordingly, whereas racing here, there are more unknowns.
"I have to say the organizers could learn a thing or two from their Canadian counterparts though. You do appreciate the level of organization of Canadian races when you travel, especially the timing, which has sometimes been an issue these past couple weeks."
The skiers are chasing NorAm points in a bid to earn a trip overseas to ski for Canada on the world cup. The races shift to Vernon and Whistler, B.C. before Christmas.

Doctors at Mayo Clinic have a long-standing interest in research related to renal artery stenosis. Findings from research studies can lead to new and improved treatments. Current research efforts focus on:
Assessing the most effective renal artery stenosis treatments
Exploring how renal artery stenosis affects small vessels and kidney tissue injury
Developing imaging tools to better evaluate blood flow and injury in the kidney
Determining the most appropriate treatment for people who have high blood pressure caused by renal artery stenosis
Increasing recovery of kidney function after treatment
Exploring new methods of boosting kidney repair after restoring blood flow
Researchers at Mayo Clinic are studying new diagnostic tools such as the multidetector computerized tomography (CT) scan and blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Mayo Clinic researchers developed these imaging tools, which use 3-D images to assess kidney function. BOLD MRI can show whether your kidney is getting sufficient oxygen and can recover after renal revascularization.
Current clinical trials underway include repair of injured kidney tissue with the administration of a person's own mesenchymal stem cells and the use of investigational protective agents (mitochondrial protection) at the time of revascularization.
