Oral and parenteral immunization of chickens (Gallus gallus) against West Nile virus with recombinant envelope protein
Carol Fassbinder-Orth, Erik K. Hofmeister, Carolyn Weeks-Levy, William H. Karasov
West Nile virus (WNV) causes morbidity and mortality in humans, horses, and in more than 315 bird species in North America. Currently approved WNV vaccines are designed for parenteral administration and, as yet, no effective oral WNV vaccines have been developed. WNV envelope (E) protein is a highly antigenic protein that elicits the majority of virus-neutralizing antibodies during a WNV immune response. Leghorn chickens were given three vaccinations (each 2 wk apart) of E protein orally (20 μg or 100 μg/dose), of E protein intramuscularly (IM, 20 μg/dose), or of adjuvant only (control group) followed by a WNV challenge. Viremias were measured post-WNV infection, and three new enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were developed for quantifying IgM, IgY, and IgA-mediated immune response of birds following WNV infection. WNV viremia levels were significantly lower in the IM group than in both oral groups and the control group. Total WNV E protein-specific IgY production was significantly greater, and WNV nonstructural 1-specific IgY was significantly less, in the IM group compared to all other treatment groups. The results of this study indicate that IM vaccination of chickens with E protein is protective against WNV infection and results in a significantly different antibody production profile as compared to both orally vaccinated and nonvaccinated birds.

Set it, but don't forget it. Whether you have a manual or automatic system, be sure to adjust your watering schedule. As the weather changes, so will your landscape's watering needs.
Water established lawns about 1 inch per week (a bit more during hot, dry weather). Free water measuring gauges are available to District customers upon request.
Inspect your overall irrigation system for leaks, broken lines, or blockage in the lines.
Consider replacing some grass area with low water use plants and ornamental grasses. They are easier to maintain than grass, look beautiful, and require far less water.
Group plants with like watering needs. Creating "watering zones" in your garden will allow you to give each plant the water it requires.
Add a shut-off nozzle to your garden hose and save about 5-7 gallons each minute your hose is on. Free hose trigger nozzles are available to District customers upon request.
Mulch your plants to improve soil, reduce weeds, and prevent evaporation.
Improve water penetration by aerating your lawn. Aeration can renew compacted soil allowing water and air to reach the roots of your lawn.
When washing your car, use soap and water from a bucket and use a hose with a shut-off nozzle to rinse.
Use a broom to sweep your driveway and sidewalks clean instead of using water to remove debris.

Farm Groups Sign Joint Letter Stressing Need to Avoid Disrupting Current Ag Trade
NAFTA Talks Begin

As talks start on renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement, some agricultural groups stressed their case that there are changes that could streamline exports without disrupting ag trade. (Graphic by TheMexicanGentleman, public domain)
OMAHA (DTN) -- Three farm leaders from Canada, Mexico and the United States on Wednesday sent a joint letter to their respective trade negotiators as talks began to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement. The leaders called on trade representatives to streamline regulations and tackle trade barriers without disrupting the current flow of agricultural products among the three countries.
Led by Zippy Duvall, president of the American Farm Bureau, the farm leaders held a signing ceremony and press conference in Washington, D.C., at the National Press Club to discuss the trade pact and reiterate, as they have for months, that the NAFTA talks should "do no harm" to the current agricultural trade flows across North America.
Farm Bureau, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture and the National Agricultural Council of Mexico signed a letter stressing that trade negotiators should work to improve NAFTA, but not dismantle the trade pact.
Duvall noted Canada and Mexico are the No. 1 and No. 3 destinations currently for U.S. ag exports -- with China holding the No. 2 spot. Further, Mexico and Canada are the top exporters of agricultural products to the U.S.
"NAFTA continues to be a success story for North American farmers and ranchers," Duvall said. "For all the criticisms of our trade deals, we in agriculture want our trade negotiators to know that trade deals and open markets are largely beneficial to American farmers and ranchers and to the communities we live in, do business and raise our families."
As U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer opened the talks on Wednesday, he highlighted that American farmers and ranchers have benefited from NAFTA, as have border communities. Still, Lighthizer declared NAFTA has led to trade deficits, lost manufacturing jobs and businesses that have left the country outside of the gains in agriculture. "But for countless Americans, this agreement has failed," Lighthizer said. He pointed to the $57 billion overall trade deficit the U.S. had with Mexico in 2016.
Lighthizer added he shares President Donald Trump's view, which is that NAFTA has been a disaster. The trade ambassador added he does not intend the talks to be "a mere tweak" of the trade deal.
"We feel that NAFTA has fundamentally failed many, many Americans and needs major improvement," Lighthizer said.
Responding to such comments, Duvall said Farm Bureau's stance remains "do no harm" to current agricultural trade. He added that American farmers "played a major role" in getting President Trump elected, "and I don't see him doing harm to this treaty that has been good for American agriculture."
Not involved in the Wednesday presser was the National Farmers Union, which issued its own statement calling on NAFTA negotiators to restore trade balance and domestic sovereignty that NFU members believe has been lost in trade deals. NAFTA rules have largely benefited corporate America, said Roger Johnson, president of NFU.
"The Trump Administration must use this opportunity to reset that agenda by instituting a new, fair trade framework that works for family farmers, ranchers, and rural residents. NFU urges them to do so in a fashion that is transparent to the American public and does not upset the positive trade relations the U.S. agriculture community relies upon," Johnson said.
While agriculture, in general, has been a trade success story under NAFTA, each country has had its winners and losers under the pact. U.S. grains and oilseeds have seen exports steadily rise under the pact -- corn, soybeans and wheat accounted for $4.8 billion in sales just to Mexico last year. Still, fruit and vegetable growers, particularly in the Southeast U.S., have lost market share to increasing imports from Mexico. Meanwhile, U.S. dairy and poultry producers are frustrated by the quota limits, tariffs and lack of overall access to Canada, which has a domestic supply management system for dairy, eggs and other poultry products.
Still, Duvall said agriculture as a North American region needs to come together.
"We do have a problem in Florida," Duvall said. "We do have a problem in the Northeast. We do have problems in certain areas. Let's have some rules around this trade treaty about how we have swift decisions around solving those problems."
Busco de la Vega, president of National Agricultural Council of Mexico, said through a translator that trade creates winners and losers. While consumers in Mexico benefit from grain and meat imports, de la Vega noted, "The soya, corn, bean and rice and pork growers in Mexico have a serious problem with competitivity (competition)."
Ron Bonnett, president of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture, responded to a question about supply management by saying the CFA supports the current supply management system.
"I think our government has been very clear they are going to defend supply management, and we are on board with that," Bonnett said.
Bonnett had said the three presidents of agricultural groups laid out in their joint statement specific changes to NAFTA in which they could all agree. That common ground focused on "increased and improved regulatory alignment," such as harmonizing rules on pesticides. Another goal is to increase the flow of goods at the borders by reducing inspections of products entering a country that were already inspected once they left the export country.
"All of those types of things will streamline costs for producers and streamline costs with consumers of those products," Bonnett said. "That goes back to the theory of building on what has been working and trying to streamline a lot of the processes on regulations and technical barriers."
Bonnett was asked about the possibility of eliminating language on dispute resolution. He noted that removing such language essentially strips enforcement out of the trade pact.
The ag groups proposed further alignment of science standards for human health, plants and animals, and breaking down non-scientific barriers to trade. Further, they said the agreement needs to be adapted to technologies that were not yet created when NAFTA began.
De la Vega said his group has stressed to the government that agriculture is not to be exchanged for other parts of the economy in a trade deal. Together, the agricultural economies of NAFTA "can go out and conquer markets in South America, Asia and Europe," de la Vega said through a translator.
Responding to complaints that Mexican farmers take advantage of low wages and poor labor rules to export fruits and vegetables, de la Vega said labor rules should not be spelled out in NAFTA. "On the labor topics, we believe each country should be addressing its own things," he said.

Video editing is the manipulation and arrangement of video shots. Video editing is used to structure and present all video information, including films and television shows, video advertisements and video essays. Video editing has been dramatically democratized in recent years by editing software available for personal computers. Editing video can be difficult and tedious, so several technologies have been produced to aid people in this task. Pen based video editing software was developed in order to give people a more intuitive and fast way to edit video.[1]
A vision mixer.
1 Types of editing
3 Home video editing
Types of editingEdit
Though once the province of expensive machines called video editors, video editing software is now available for personal computers and workstations. Video editing includes cutting segments (trimming), re-sequencing clips, and adding transitions and other Special Effects.[2]
Linear video editing uses video tape and is edited in a very linear way. Several video clips from different tapes are recorded to one single tape in the order that they will appear.
Non-linear editing systems (NLE) allow video to be edited on computers with specialized software. This process is not destructive to the raw video footage and is done by using programs such as DaVinci Resolve, Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro.
Offline editing is the process by which raw footage is copied from an original source, without affecting the original film stock or video tape. Once the editing is complete, the original media is then re-assembled in the online editing stage.
Online editing is the process of reassembling the edit to full resolution video after an offline edit has been performed. It is done in the final stage of a video production.
Vision mixing is used when working within live television and video production environments. A vision mixer is used to cut live feed coming from several cameras in real time.
BackgroundEdit
Video editing is the process of editing segments of motion video production footage, special effects and sound recordings in the post-production process. Motion picture film editing is a predecessor to video editing and, in several ways, video editing simulates motion picture film editing, in theory and the use of linear video editing and video editing software on non-linear editing systems (NLE). Using video, a director can communicate non-fictional and fictional events. The goal of editing is to manipulate these events to bring the communication closer to the original goal or target. It is a visual art.[3]
Early 1950s video tape recorders (VTR) were so expensive, and the quality degradation caused by copying was so great, that a 2-inch Quadruplex videotape was edited by visualizing the recorded track with ferrofluid, cutting it with a razor blade or guillotine cutter, and splicing with video tape. The two pieces of tape to be joined were painted with a solution of extremely fine iron filings suspended in carbon tetrachloride, a toxic and carcinogenic compound. This "developed" the magnetic tracks, making them visible when viewed through a microscope so that they could be aligned in a splicer designed for this task.
Improvements in quality and economy, and the invention of the flying erase-head, allowed new video and audio material to be recorded over the material already present on an existing magnetic tape. This was introduced into the linear editing technique. If a scene closer to the beginning of the video tape needed to be changed in length, all later scenes would need to be recorded onto the video tape again in sequence. In addition, sources could be played back simultaneously through a vision mixer (video switcher) to create more complex transitions between scenes. A popular 1970-80s system for creating these transitions was the U-matic equipment (named for the U-shaped tape path). That system used two tape players and one tape recorder, and edits were done by automatically having the machines back up, then speed up together simultaneously, so that the edit didn't roll or glitch. Later, in the 1980-90's came the smaller beta equipment (named for the B-shaped tape path), and more complex controllers, some of which did the synchronizing electronically.
Editor in linear VCR suite
There was a transitional analog period using multiple source videocassette recorders (VCR) with the EditDroid using LaserDisc players, but modern NLE systems edit video digitally captured onto a hard drive from an analog video or digital video source. Content is ingested and recorded natively with the appropriate codec that the video editing software uses to process captured footage. High-definition video is becoming more popular and can be readily edited using the same video editing software along with related motion graphics programs. Video clips are arranged on a timeline, music tracks, titles, digital on-screen graphics are added, special effects can be created, and the finished program is "rendered" into a finished video. The video may then be distributed in a variety of ways including DVD, web streaming, QuickTime Movies, iPod, CD-ROM, or video tape.
Home video editingEdit
Like some other technologies, the cost of video editing has declined over time. The original 2" Quadruplex system cost so much that many television production facilities could only afford a single unit, and editing was a highly involved process that required special training. In contrast to this, nearly any home computer sold since the year 2000 has the speed and storage capacity to digitize and edit standard-definition television (SDTV). The two major retail operating systems include basic video editing software - Apple's iMovie and Microsoft's Windows Movie Maker. Additional options exist, usually as more advanced commercial products. As well as these commercial products, there are opensource[4] video-editing programs. Automatic video editing products have also emerged, opening up video editing to a broader audience of amateurs and reducing the time it takes to edit videos. These exist usually as media storage services, such as Google with its Google Photos[5] or smaller companies like Vidify.
ApplicationsEdit
Video editing can be used to create videos that are then shared on social media.
Video editing can be used for many purposes such as education, entertainment, and documentation.[6]
Virtual reality—Advancements are being made to help with editing spherical video used in virtual reality settings. The ability to edit in virtual reality was created so that users would be able to check their video edits in real time, without having to continually view the video in a headset between edits.[7]
Social media—Video editing can be used for entertainment and other purposes on YouTube and other social media sites. School teachers have used video editing to help their students retain information and extend lessons outside the classroom.[8]

When you think of wintery weather, Oregon might not be the first state that comes to mind. It certainly wasn't for me until I visited snowed-under Crater Lake National Park and other snowy, high altitude spots in the Beaver State last week. It was 76 degrees and sunny on the day we left Klamath Falls, Oregon, for the park, which is only 70 miles to the north, and even though I'd been told that Rim Drive, the scenic route around the park, was closed due to snow, I didn't quite believe it.
To me, it was like being in South Beach on a toasty, warm day and hearing that there was snow in West Palm Beach. But Crater Lake is about 2,000 feet higher than Klamath Falls and sure enough, the place was still buried in snow.
We drove on towards the visitor's center and were astonished to see huge snowdrifts on both sides of the neatly paved road. Over at the lake's Discovery Point lookout, it was 41 degrees according to our rental car's temperature gauge, but when I stepped out of the car, I was almost knocked down by a ferocious wind that made it feel as though it was in the teens. I had brought a hat and gloves but there were a few other hapless tourists there in shorts and T-shirts grimacing in pain.
Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the United States at more than 1,900 feet (seventh deepest in the world) and the water is remarkably clean. I have never seen a deeper shade of blue in my life and the contrast of the snow against the steep cliffs along the lake makes for an unforgettable view. According to the Moon Guide to Oregon, Kodak used to send apologies along with photos they processed of the lake because their technicians couldn't believe that the water at Crater Lake was that blue. It is.
Rim Drive was indeed closed after Discovery Point to traffic but that made it pleasant to walk on and although we couldn't really take advantage of the park's 90 miles of hiking trails with two kids and no snow shoes, it was delightful to have a national park practically all to ourselves, even if it was bitterly cold and windy.
After leaving Crater Lake, we spent four days in Bend, one of America's most beautifully situated cities with snowcapped mountains in almost every direction, and had more wintery surprises in store for us. McKenzie Pass, reputed to be one of the most scenic drives in the Cascade Range, was closed due to snow, as was most of the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway, despite the fact that it was nearly 80 degrees in nearby Bend.
But only 20 minutes outside Bend, the Mt. Bachelor ski resort was not only open but also busy with skiers. The place remains open through Memorial Day and at this time of year visitors to Bend can ski in the morning and play tennis or golf in the afternoon. For a guy who lives in the flat, boring Midwest, the quick and dramatic changes in altitude and weather are reason enough to get on a plane and head to Oregon.
National parks are free again next weekend!
Next weekend, August 14-15, is the third, and final, fee free weekend in America's national parks for 2010. For those two days, more than 100 of the parks will open their gates to the public at no cost, giving visitors a chance to experience "America's best idea" for themselves.
The complete list of parks that will be waiving their entry fees can be found by clicking here. That list includes such spectacular icons as Yosemite, Yellowstone, and Acadia, as well as lesser known, but no less amazing, parks like Big Bend, the Dry Tortugas, and Crater Lake. All told, more than 40 states are represented on the list, which means there is a national park or monument that will be free to visit next weekend near just about everyone in the U.S.
The fee free weekends have been very popular that past few years, and crowds in the parks will no doubt be high. But if you can't make it out to your favorite national park on the 14th or 15th, never fear, as there are still two more fee free days to come in 2010. On Saturday, Sept. 25th, the parks will be free in celebration of Public Lands Day and then once again on Thursday, Nov. 11th, in honor of Veteran's Day.
With summer quickly coming to a close, take advantage of this last fee free weekend of the year for some outdoor fun and adventure.

UWC students lead Team SA in 2017 International Supercomputing Competition
In a world where computing power and computer skills are becoming ever more important, South Africa continues to punch above its weight - as University of the Western Cape (UWC) and Stellenbosch University (SU) students showed when they led Team South Africa to second prize in the prestigious International Supercomputing Competition in Frankfurt, Germany this month.
The South African team was selected in December last year at the annual Centre for High Power Computing (CHPC) South African Student Cluster Challenge. Those winners, Mishka Mohamed, Kyle Jordaan, Tyrone de Ruiters and Liam Doult - who formed UWC's Team No Windows - as well as SU's Phillip Goosen and Lydia de Lange, went on to to Germany to build a small cluster of their design on the exhibition floor and race to demonstrate the greatest performance across a series of benchmarks and applications.
Over the past few decades, computer clusters (two or more computers connected in such a way that they are able to act as a single computer with way more power) have changed high performance computing, making massive computing power available to research teams with modest budgets and allowing more flexibility and customisability than traditional supercomputers.
The competition took place over three days of intense effort by 12 international teams. The team members were honoured guests of the Minister of Science and Technology, Naledi Pandor, at the Department of Science and Technology's Budget Vote in parliament this year where she wished them well for the international competition.
Team South Africa has excelled at the ISC. Since the competition began, Team SA has won the international competition three times, with UWC again leading the team in one of those victories, and taken the second position once.
This year's South African team was sponsored by Dell EMC for hardware equipment to the value of R2 million and Mellanox was the sponsor for network equipment worth R200 000.
The international competition is organised by the international High Performance Computing Advisory Council. This year's competing teams were:
Centre for High Performance Computing (South Africa)
Nanyang Technological University (Singapore)
Edinburgh Parallel Computing Centre, University of Edinburgh (United Kingdom)
University of Science and Technology and National University of Defense Tech (China)
Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen–Nürnberg (Germany)
University of Hamburg (Germany)
National Energy Research Scientific Computing Centre (United States of America)
Universitat Politècnica De Catalunya Barcelona Tech (Spain)
Purdue University and Northeastern University (Unites States of America)
The Boston Green Team (Boston University, Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Massachusetts – Boston (United States of America)
Beihang University (China)
Tsinghua University (China)
Team South Africa: From No Windows To The Finals
Team No Windows (the UWC portion of the team) was guided in their endeavours in the South African part of the competition by their staff mentor, the South African National Bioinformatics Institute's (SANBI) Peter van Heusden, and their student mentor, Eugene de Beste - who was part of the winning team for the ISC for 2015. De Beste's former ISC teammate, joined him in providing assistance and guidance at the international event - a helping hand that was much appreciated.
"I still remember playing on my dad's old DOS computer and wondering how it works; so I've always loved computers, says Mishka Mohamed, who is completing her third-year BSc at UWC. "My interests shifted to the Supercomputing Competition as soon as I was presented with the opportunity to learn more about creating a super computer."
"I am interested in high-performance computing because I want to build a supercomputer and gain experience through these events," says Bellville-based UWC BSc Computer Science student Kyle Jordaan. "I also love all things computer related."
Fellow BSc Computer Science student Tyrone de Ruiters, born and raised in Cape Town, found the competition a valuable experience. "I enjoy breaking down new problems and learning new skills, so I enjoyed the competition."
Liam Doult from Durbanville - also doing his BSc Computer Science - is grateful both for the victory and the opportunity to hone his skills. After all: "What nerd doesn't what to build a supercomputer?"
The Cluster Competition is designed to give undergraduate students exposure to the high power performance computing industry – an industry that's increasingly crucial to researchers in fields as disparate as astrophysics, molecular biology and even history, where there are complicated operations to perform on often massive datasets.

A couple of weeks ago, I got an opportunity to chat with Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige about Captain Marvel. We discussed the Avengers: Infinity War after credits scene, if Captain Marvel was originally supposed to appear in that movie, how Carol's powers won't break the MCU, Stan Lee's tribute and cameo, the whereabouts of Goose, why Nick Fury hasn't used the pager before Infinity War, and the upcoming live-action Marvel television series for Disney+.
Kevin Feige: You have your choice of chairs as well, either one. Whatever. What's in the goodie bag? I don't want to take up too much of your time.
Nothing cool. A Captain Marvel doll that is going to a friend's kid.
No, you can keep it, don't be shy.
Normally we ask you about all these things in the future and I know this time you really can't answer a lot, so let's talk about the past.
When I was on the set of Infinity War, the directors (the Russo Brothers) said that Captain Marvel was in the movie. And then, like months later, they said that she wasn't. So I'm wondering was there originally an appearance in Infinity War?
No. No, because we made those moves at the same time together. That might've been what they were referring to. Cause it was all the same, all the same thought process going on, but she was never in the movie.
Can you talk about how the mid-credits tag came later in the process? Because that becomes that device, the pager becomes a big part of this movie. How did that come about?


Probably my favorite cover by Erasure!! Those synth swirls and bleeps and bloops still give me goosebumps!!
It helped I loved the song from Peter to begin with.
I remember imagining then what else from Peter might have sounded good too. I kinda hoped each cover released as a single would have had a second choice from the original artist as a b-side. Maybe "Don't Give Up"? Andy doing the Kate Bush bit...wow. That could have been great.
Plus we know Andy is a hugger.

Home Entertainment Ramy Essam's New Album Is Coming With Universal Music MENA
Ramy Essam's New Album Is Coming With Universal Music MENA
Omar ElMezeny
The revolutionary Egyptian singer Ramy Essam announced the release of his new album "Resala Ela Magles el Amn" or "A Message to the Security Council" after months of releasing a single carrying the same name. Essam has released a collection of singles that were very popular in Egypt's underground society following his last studio album "Mamnou'" and his collaboration with the band "Eks" in releasing their first album carrying the same name of the band.
The new album is going to be a mix between hard rock and classic oriental beats, a combination that has been presented to us many times by Ramy before.
People who recognize the name Ramy Essam even distantly surly know Essam's political views and how he has been opposing the regime since day one. He was one of the iconic figures of the revolution of January 25th that he was called "The Revolution's Singer". You'll find that he has been singing about freedom in lots of his songs which reflects his personal ideology.
His thoughts of liberation don't stop with Egypt, Essam has recently been singing about global topics like the internal issues happening in Lebanon in his single "Beirut ma Betmout". He also released a song called "The Camp" in collaboration with PJ Harvey which aims to raise awareness about health, education and well-being issues of displaced children in the Beqaa Valley. The artists contributing in this song have announced that they will be donating all net profit from the track to Beyond Association in Beqaa Valley, an NGO that provides support to the kids through art therapy and neuro-physiotherapy.
Ramy's album is to be released on Friday June 23rd 2017 with Universal Music MENA on digital platforms for everyone to have access to it.

Beatport: https://pro.beatport.com/release/feeling-alive/1609041 Bulgarian DJ and producer Pavlin Petrov debuts on Bonzai Progressive with the sublime Feeling Alive which features the sultry and exotic vocals of Selina Stoane. Pavlin grew up listening to Jean Michelle Jarre, Vangelis and Enigma among other electronic greats. In 2005 he started to produce and was heavily influenced by the ambient sounds. In 2010 he became hooked on progressive house and since then he has infused his prog sounds with wonderful ambient atmospheres while experimenting with new sounds. Over the years he has racked up quite an impressive back catalogue across many labels including Mystic Carousel Records, Revelation Records, DeeperSense Music and Beat Block Records to name just a few. He has worked with a host of top artists and is a much sought after remix artist. Delighted to have him on board and we hope to see much more in the future, well worth keeping an eye on. The Original Mix intros with punchy kicks that are licked with a dose of bass giving them an extra boost. Percussions build slowly alongside a fantastic drum arrangement that just sits perfectly at the back dishing out a flowing rhythm that melts into the sound. The vocals add a rich and vibrant texture to the sound as the sultry voice of Selina Stoane blends into the progressive groove effortlessly. Beautifully high pitched pianos provide a cool contrast as we are taken on a superb journey through prog house and beyond. Top notch stuff. Manu Riga, a man who needs no introduction really, steps up to remix duty and delivers a surprise for us all with his From Hell Remix. With over 40 remixes for Bonzai Progressive and no less than 16 full releases, this guy has firmly cemented himself as one of Bonzai's top artists. He is a relentless work-horse who never lets up and always delivers the goods with quality in mind, he is currently working on his new album which is due for 2016, something we are eagerly awaiting. Catch him in the mix on Escape which airs on the 2nd Saturday of each month and Ethnoscience, alongside studio and DJ partner Matt Holliday, which airs on the 1st Saturday of each month, both on Progressive Beats radio. As the title of the remix suggests, Manu takes us deep into progressive, so deep we get lost in the progressive abyss. Right from the get go we embark on this dark journey as solid beats accompany a haunting voice. The tight drum arrangement sets up a smooth rhythmic flow to the sound and allows the track to drive with the bass at the helm. The bass line is a huge player here as it bubbles up from below employing a tough exterior which contrasts beautifully with the voices. The break delivers the killer blow as those voices dominate and then fade away leaving cool sweeping pads and that awesome bass to clean up. A different side to Manu that will definitely get a lot of playtime for sure. Experimental Feelings aka Spanish DJ and producer Toni Gonzalez debuts on Bonzai Progressive with his superb remix. He has been around recently on our Afterhour Trax 17 compilation on Green Martian and will soon make his full debut with an upcoming release later this year. Since 2010 he has released a hugely impressive back catalogue across a multitude of labels including Liquitech Recordings, OLD SQL Recordings, MorningGlory Music and many more. He mainly focuses on progressive but likes to delve into Techno and Deep House also. Here he delivers a solid progressive workout filled with some stunning drum arrangements that will definitely get the floors moving. Punchy kicks lead the way alongside rhythmic percussions and a myriad of slapped drums. A relentless probing bass lurks throughout and blends nicely with the sweet melodic piano riffs that litter the groove. The vocals play a big part here and work well with the drums making this a definite must have track for sure.

Diego Simeone praises Atletico Madrid character after Super Cup fightback
Diego Simeone hailed the heart of Atletico Madrid after they stunned Barcelona 3-2 to reach the Spanish Super Cup final in Saudi Arabia.
Goals from Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann had cancelled out Koke's opener and put Ernesto Valverde's side on course for victory entering the final 10 minutes at the King Abdullah Stadium.
Yet Alvaro Morata held his nerve from the penalty spot and Angel Correa turned the semi-final tie around with an 86th-minute winner to set up a derby showdown with Real Madrid on Sunday.
#AnotherWayOfLiving pic.twitter.com/xlfBlTcqbR
— Atlético de Madrid (@atletienglish) January 9, 2020
All five strikes occurred in the second half and the win for Atletico was their first over Barca since April 13, 2016.
"We played a tough game, we started well in the first 10 minutes and then they were superior," said Simeone, in quotes reported by Mundo Deportivo.
"We always have the plan of trying to play our game, but the opponent is very good. Messi had one more step. When he had the ball it seemed that something was going to happen.
"We talked at half-time and we started with that goal that gave us strength, but they quickly got level with us.
Barcelona's Lionel Messi scored in the 3-2 defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup (Hassan Ammar/AP)
"The two goals came and two disallowed (for Barca), and with it a disturbing offensive game rhythm. Changing (Marcos) Llorente and the position of Correa up front gave us more options.
"And in the 76th minute another team was seen, with strong legs, which showed that we could win."
The introduction of Koke at the break was inspired, with the Atletico captain scoring almost immediately after he entered the pitch.
VAR was prominent throughout, with Messi having one goal ruled out for handball and Gerard Pique denied after Arturo Vidal was deemed offside.

— FC Barcelona (@FCBarcelona) January 9, 2020
Atletico also felt they should have had a penalty and despite the technology looking at a potential handball from Pique, nothing was given.
Barca forward Griezmann was quoted by AS as saying: "We have VAR to help football. Sometimes it helps you and sometimes it goes against you, but it is what it is."
The former Atletico star added: "In the same way I can't explain our mistakes, and in the end they had more energy and it cost us. We have to watch the game back, work and improve.
"I failed to make the pass to (Samuel) Umtiti. Little things like that can result in you losing a match, a league, a Champions League. We will work and that's it."
Simeone is now preparing his team to take on Real, with Zinedine Zidane's team having had 24 hours more rest than Atletico after their 3-1 success over Valencia on Wednesday.
But the Argentinian commented: "We are going to play a final against a team that made a fantastic match, even with the absence of (Gareth) Bale and (Karim) Benzema.
"They responded in a very good way, with a very nice game. Madrid has mobility, speed and precision. They play to win. Sunday will be a tough game."

Q: How do I create a robust ScrollView with both horizontal and vertical paging using autoLayout? Situation
So I'm trying to make a UIScrollView that is basically a menu navigation bar that a user can navigate by swiping between menu items, where there are pages vertically laid out, and sub-pages horizontally laid out. Mockup:
The way I'm doing this is by creating a UIScrollView whose frame is the size of one UILabel, and I have isPagingEnabled set to true. I then tried adding a UIStackView, with each row indicating a page, and the contents of each row being a sub-page. I set the scrollView.contentSize to be the size of the UIStackView. The problem is that all my label's frames are zeros all through and the UIScrollView doesn't work.
:/
I really wanted to avoid getting help as I felt like I could do this by myself but I've spent two days on this and I've lost all hope.
Code
Here is the code where I add the labels. It's called upon the scrollview's superview's init (because the UIScrollView is in a custom UIView I call crossNavigation View).
private func addScrollViewLabels() {

    //Get Max Number of Items in a Single Row
    var maxRowCount = -1
    for item in items {
        if (item.contents.count > maxRowCount) {maxRowCount = item.contents.count}
    }

    self.rowsStackView.axis = .vertical
    self.rowsStackView.distribution = .fillEqually
    self.rowsStackView.alignment = .fill
    self.rowsStackView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
    self.scrollView.addSubview(rowsStackView)

    for i in 0 ..< items.count {
        let row = items[i].contents
        let rowView = UIView()
        self.rowsStackView.addArrangedSubview(rowView)
        var rowLabels : [UILabel] = []
        //First Label
        rowLabels.append(UILabel())
        rowView.addSubview(rowLabels[0])

A: Take a look at this demo project I made based off your mock up.
It sets up the framework for everything you want to do.
Examine the view hierarchy and you'll understand where to configure the layout to make it exactly how you want.
The last step is to tweak the paging so you get the snap behavior you desire. There are many ways to do this but it is a bit involved.
Good Luck!

Can You Roll Debts and Closing Costs Into a Home Mortgage?

How to Refinance Paid for Property & Cash Out Equity
Pros & Cons of Refinancing a House
One of the main benefits of home ownership is the ability to build equity. As home values in your area rise, your home appreciates and gains equity. You also build equity by paying down your loan balance. To determine the amount of equity in your home, you subtract the amount your owe on the mortgage from the home's current value. The difference is your equity. In a home refinancing, you can use equity to cover closing costs and even pay off debts.
A refinance pays off a previous mortgage with proceeds from a new loan. You can roll debts and closing costs into the new mortgage. Refinances come in two types: cash out and non-cash out. A cash out allows you to receive cash back at closing, while a non-cash out does not. The amount of equity in your home determines whether you can roll debts into your new mortgage and cover closing costs.
Loan-to-value Ratios
Loan-to-value ratios, also known as LTVs, compare the amount owed on a home to its market value. LTVs are expressed as percentages. A desirable LTV on a mortgage is 80 percent or less. An 80 percent LTV means you have 20 percent or more equity in the property and you're generally eligible for the best loan terms. Using a mortgage to pay off debts and cover closing costs makes the most sense when you have an LTV of 80 percent or less.
Obtaining a loan amount that exceeds 80 percent LTV to pay debts or closing costs is expensive. The lender takes on more risk, so it gives you a higher interest rate and requires private mortgage insurance, an additional premium you pay which protects the lender in case you default.
When applying for a cash-out refinance, you may request that a portion of your proceeds from the cash out be used to pay off certain debts. Typically, borrowers pay off high-interest personal loans, credit card debt and secondary mortgage liens, such as home equity loans and lines of credit. You may also request that the loan proceeds pay the costs associated with closing the refinance, such as lender, title and escrow fees. You receive the remainder of the available equity in cash after closing. On a no-cash out refinance, you can only roll your closing costs into the new loan and pay off mortgage-related debts, such as secondary liens.
You may roll closing costs into a new mortgage on a sales transaction. The lender caps the amount you can roll over at a percentage of the sales price. The industry standard is 3 percent, according to the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Closing costs are rolled over into your new mortgage by way of seller-paid concessions. In certain markets, a seller may be willing to pay for all or a portion of your closing costs to sell you his home. You must disclose the amount of seller concessions in the sales agreement and disclose it to the lender.

Learning To Draw Remotely

Joanne Pierce wants to cultivate people's creativity

Online art lessons? Why not. The internet, after all, is just another means of dispensing knowledge and skills.
With the pandemic lockdown, people have turned to countless diversions to help pass the time in enforced isolation.
Joanne Y. Pierce of Bayville wants to do her part during this unprecedented time. The art teacher at Holy Child Academy in Old Westbury is holding free 30-minute art classes for both children and adults every Wednesday at 7 p.m. through the end of August.
The new video series, "Pierce the HeArt Lessons," is available on Instagram and YouTube. See more info at www.jypfineart.com/piercetheheartlessons.
Classes include drawings of horses and horse settings, and episodes will follow a traditional art classroom setting. Pierce plans to have on-site solo lessons at various scenic locations around Long Island, highlighting her favorite horse farms, vineyards, beaches and other scenic places.
"Triple Crown Winner Montage" is a colored pencil on a 20×30 illustration board, and portrays Secretariat, Seattle Slew, Affirmed, and American Pharoah. It is exhibited at the prestigious Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital in Saratoga.
Pierce has a decades-long career in teaching and creating fine art for both children and adults. She and her son, Tom, created Pierce the HeArt Lessons in the summer of 2019, aided by a Kickstarter campaign for the pilot episode. The 30-day campaign raised $23,531 from 40 backers, topping the goal of $22,500.
"In a world where public arts funding and arts education budgets at schools and arts town councils are being cut, Pierce wants to play an integral part in filling the creative and therapeutic void that so many human beings are experiencing in the modern world," stated a press release. "With the rise in the convenience of on demand and on-the-go content digestion, it is clear that the future will favor a series that is crafted specifically for easy and efficient mobile consumption."
A Life In Art
Pierce grew up in Port Washington and told Anton Media Group, "I always loved to draw, especially horses. I had very talented people on both sides of my family. I remember as a child drawing with my grandfather."
She added, "My earliest memory [goes back to when] I was six years old. I did a drawing of a horse and brought it to school and got a lot of encouragement. And from then on I had the most wonderful art teachers in the Port Washington schools."
Pierce attended SUNY New Paltz from 1975 to 1979 and earned a degree in art education.
"It was a great experience because they had the greatest art school there," Pierce said of the college.
Unfortunately, teaching positions were hard to find at the time.
She followed a lot of her friend who landed jobs on Wall Street, and for three years worked as a compliance officer at Bear Stearns. The firm earned infamy later when it failed during the financial crisis of 2008.
Pierce recalled a friend telling her, "Joanne, this is Wall Street, not Sesame Street."
She added, "At some point, I said to myself, 'I have to leave here and do my passion.' People told me, 'You're so brave, Joanne. And I said, 'Well, I'm either brave or very foolish (laughs).' Then I went on to resume my art career, my passion."
She had started a family and began substitute teaching, working for long stretches in the Mount Sinai district and at a private school in Miller Place.
"Hunter Pace—Old Westbury Gardens, NY" is a 16×20 illustration using colored pencils on illustration board.
"It such a joy, an absolute joy," she said of those experiences. "A dear friend of mine worked at Holy Child Academy for many years and she kept encouraging me, 'Joanne, you have to work here. It's such a nice place with wonderful people.' Fortunately, [I was hired] two years ago."
In addition to being employed as an assistant teacher, Pierce also worked the private school's summer camp last year.
The pandemic closed the school in March and the summer program was trimmed back, so Pierce and her son began concentrating on Pierce the HeArt Lessons.
"The idea behind it is that so much is online now," she observed. "My son encouraged me to teach online. I was thinking of opening a brick-and-mortar art school, now that my kids are grown and on their own."
But after talking things over with her son, Pierce realized that the internet was the best way forward.
"There is so much content, and you could reach more people, people on the go, people at home," she explained. "My son got me interested in doing that and helping me to understand social media, because I'm not really of that generation (laughs)."
Asked how the lessons are going, Pierce replied, "It's been fantastic. We reach people all over the world. And it's been wonderful."
"In person you get immediate feedback, you can see what people are doing. How is it teaching art online?" she was asked.
"Pemaquid Point Lighthouse" is described by Pierce as "a beautiful and historic lighthouse that sits with purpose at the tip of the Pemaquid Neck, Maine." This colored pencil on paper is merely 5×7 inches.
"It took me a while to adjust to that," she admitted. "It is very different. We get a lot of very nice feedback afterwards and it seems to be effective."
Tom added, "A lot of people seem to be coming back and watching [videos] again. The Instagram live is like a lecture hall. We're just speaking to the camera and people are watching and drawing along."
He added, "We do have some more intimate one-on-one or with a few lessons launching soon where there'll be feedback throughout it all."
Tom noted that the online experience has "allowed us to have private lessons with people in California. My life mission has been to get my mom out there to the masses. She is a very special person and a very special teacher."
Tom concluded, "Our goal was to fill the void in cuts in public arts funding even before the pandemic, and we want to give these lessons for free."
Joanne said what she is offering is beginner art lessons and if people missed some of the earlier lessons it was easy to get on Instagram and follow along as every lesson has been archived.
"They're also available on YouTube," Tom added.
"I try to incorporate tips for more advanced people in the lessons and I keep it simple, with not expensive supplies. Just a piece of paper and a pen or pencil," Joanne stated. "My goal is to get people back to being creative. Don't be afraid. Don't worry how it looks. Just get started."
More advanced lessons are forthcoming, and will be available via a platform yet to be determined.
Pierce said she used to come to Bayville, on the shores of the Long Island Sound, when she was a teenager, and enjoyed the arcade and restaurants.
"What is cool is that we have pictures of my grandparents and my great-great-grandparents out here in 1909. They would come out from Astoria in the summer and have a cottage out here," she said.
"Fox Portait," according to a description, "originally started off as a sketch study for Joanne and her students. After falling in love with the subject, Joanne turned it into a formal sketch."
Pierce also spent her childhood on the ocean beaches from Jones Beach to Montauk, and her mother was partial to Robert Moses State Park. They also visited Tobay Beach, where her uncle and his friends liked to surf.
"It's a nice time of life, with my children grown," she said of the present. "I'm right across from Charles Ransom Beach and every night I wish I had 50 more years to live because of the beautiful sunsets. I wish I could just go out there and paint every night."
"I was always inspired by the beauty of Long Island," she concluded. "Growing up, I loved the farms and the potato fields. And I love the beaches, so I do a lot of landscape painting as well. But my favorite subject is horses."
Pierce has exhibited her pieces in galleries across the northeast. These include the Nassau County Museum of Art in Roslyn, the Fitzgerald Gallery in Westhampton Beach, Guild Hall in East Hampton, Farmington Valley Arts in Avon, CT, and Woods Hole Art Gallery in Cape Cod.
Pierce illustrated this book by her sister. It is set in Port Washington.
She illustrated Mint's Christmas Message, a story written by her sister Mary Yaiullo Spitz. According to Pierce's website, "A beautiful sermon by Mary's father-in-law has been exquisitely crafted into a critically acclaimed children's book, visualized through Joanne's beautiful illustrations."
"One of the greatest pleasures in Joanne's life is to donate her time and talent for the promotion of horsemanship, equine rescue, and therapeutic riding programs," her biographical sketch noted.
Among the programs supported by Pierce are the Ireland Funds, EQUUS Foundation, the Kentucky Horse Park Foundation , the Kentucky Equine Adoption Center, the Middleburg Classic , Rising Starr Horse Rescue, the Real Rider Cup, New Vocations, Retired Race Horse Project and the Fair Hill Thoroughbred Show.

Australia's Pathology Lab Giant Goes Toe-to-Toe with Private Insurers over Higher fees for Pathology Tests
Dec 30, 2009 | Laboratory News, Laboratory Pathology, Managed Care Contracts & Payer Reimbursement
Sonic Healthcare asks for 30% pathology test fee increase from Bupa and MediBank
In Australia, reduced funding for pathology testing by government health programs is being blamed as one factor contributing to a contract spat between the nation's largest clinical laboratory and its major private health insurance companies. Pathologists across the globe will recognize several familiar issues, as Australia's health institutions struggle to cope with increased utilization of pathology testing and higher healthcare costs.
By asking for a price increase of 30% for pathology testing, Sonic Healthcare Ltd (ASX: SHL) has put itself at loggerheads with several of the nation's largest private health insurance companies. As contracts between Sonic Healthcare and these private insurance companies expire, Sonic then sends bills directly to the patients insured by those health plans for the costs of the pathology testing performed during their stay at private hospitals. The amount of the bill reflects the "gap" fee difference between government reimbursement and the actual charge for laboratory tests.

Major newspapers are reporting regularly on this story because up to 200,000 Australians are affected by the contract dispute. For non-Australians, "medical gap insurance" is a policy designed to cover the difference between what the government's Medicare Benefit Schedule (MBS) will reimburse and the higher charge assessed by a physician or other provider. The MBS is a payment schedule for those Medicare services subsidized by the Australian Government.
On December 25, The Sidney Morning Herald wrote that Richard Bowden, Managing Director of Bupa Australia, a major private health insurance company, was claiming that Sonic's price increases were at a level that was twice the amount specified in the Medicare Benefit Schedule. "We're extremely concerned that Sonic are forcing private health insurance members to pay excessive costs for pathology services, which in the worst-case scenario can be up to several hundred dollars," stated Bowden.
December 31 is the expiration date for the contract between Sonic Healthcare and MediBank, another private medical gap insurance. If the two companies do not execute a new contract, MediBank beneficiaries will begin getting bills for pathology testing done during their visits to private hospitals.
Herald reporter Mark Metherell noted that one reason why Sonic Healthcare is asking for higher pathology testing fees is because the federal government instituted an 8% reduction in the fees it pays for pathology tests. Metherall next wrote that "The chief executive of Sonic, Colin Goldschmidt, stood by the fee rises, saying they followed years of inadequate payments from Medicare, which reimburses 75% of the official schedule fee, and Medibank, which had covered part of the remaining costs."
Goldschmidt noted that the increased prices were necessary to sustain the financial viability of the private hospital pathology laboratories—operated by Sonic Healthcare—which he says currently run at a loss. Several other gap insurance health plans have already accepted the terms offered by Sonic Healthcare. About 10 million Australians are covered by these types of private health insurance policies.
For pathologists and clinical laboratory managers in the United States, several elements of this dispute in Australia will sound familiar. It is widely-acknowledged that the American Medicare and Medicaid programs often reimburse providers at a level that is below their cost to provide the service. Moreover, private health insurers continually want to use the Medicare fee schedule as the basis of what they pay providers, including clinical laboratories and pathologists. This arrangement pits pathology laboratories in the United States companies in a financial tug-of-war with private health insurance that is similar to what is unfolding between Sonic Healthcare and private health insurance firms down under.
In Australia, this contract wrangle between the nation's largest pathology laboratory and several of the biggest private health insurance companies may be an important early sign of further struggles to come. Like other developed countries, the Australian health system does not have enough money to cover the increased pathology test utilization driven by aging demographics and useful new diagnostic testing technologies, as well as the higher cost of labor, reagents, and materials required to perform those tests.

Teresa took this photo yesterday. This Eastern Bluebird is just beautiful. We saw a couple of them, but this one was more intense. We have seen more eastern bluebirds this spring then in the past. That is good!!!
Here is a video of our hiking over two days this week. We visited several spots along the Miami River, and also stopped at Garbry Big Woods. If you love cardinals like I do, this video is for you. They are very active right now.
Rick's latest technology muse: Pixelmator Photo is Here!
We saw this pair of flycatchers earlier this week. It is the first we have seen this year. I think they are Alder Flycatchers, but I could be wrong. I didn't get a good photo. It's not perfectly focused, but you can see them. Good to see them back.
I can't get over how many woodpeckers I am seeing this year. Maybe I am getting better at looking, or I am just in the right places. I seem to see them every place I go right now. Maybe there is a Woodpecker convention?


This is a wonderful filling for burritos or simply great served over rice with the resulting gravy. For better flavor, prepare a day ahead.
Heat shortening in a Dutch oven, and sauté garlic until browned.
Place moistened chiles on baking sheet and toast carefully in the oven for 5 minutes. They do not need to be completely dried out. Remove from oven then let cool.
Add half of the chiles into a blender, and puree with 2 cups warm water. Pour into Dutch oven with previously browned garlic and repeat with the other half of the chiles.
Add the remaining ingredients to the chile (garlic salt, oregano, onion, chile pequin)and let boil on a medium-high heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce will thicken but should remain a little soupy.
Remove the fat from the pork and cut the meat into 3/4 inch cubes. Stir pork into the chile sauce and let marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
The following day, preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Use butter to coat large baking dish, so it doesn't stick.
Add the marinated carne adovada with sauce into baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 3 hours, stirring once at an hour and a half into baking. At 2 and a half hours, remove foil (to thicken sauce).
Serve hot with homemade Flour Tortillas.

It's Official: For Pope Visit, Ben Franklin Bridge, Schuylkill Expressway, 676, Much of Center City Closed to Incoming Traffic
I-95 to remain open. And there will be a "traffic box."
By Holly Otterbein·	 8/5/2015, 3:26 p.m.
Pope Francis | neneo / Shutterstock.com. Mayor Nutter | Jeff Fusco
[Editor's note: This is a developing story, and will be updated throughout the afternoon.]
Mayor Michael Nutter has just announced key new information about Pope Francis' visit to Philadelphia in September. Here are the main points, you hungry, hungry readers:
Large sections of Center City and the eastern half of University City will be closed to incoming private traffic, beginning Friday, Sept. 25th.
The so called "traffic box" will extend from the Delaware River to 38th Street in West Philadelphia. Within Center City, the southern border of the box is South Street, and the northern edge runs west to east along Girard, down Ridge Avenue, then across Spring Garden to the Delaware River.
Vehicles that are within the Center City box will be able to operate, so long as they stay in the box.
Vehicles will be able to park in the traffic box "for the most part," Nutter said.
When will the traffic box be lifted? Nutter would not say.
I-95 will remain open. Select exit ramps within the city will be closed, but the highway itself will be open to through traffic.
The Ben Franklin Bridge will be closed beginning at 10 p.m., Friday, Sept. 25th, until noon on Monday the 28th.
I-76, the Schuylkill Expressway, will be closed in the eastbound direction all the way from the blue Route to I-95. Westbound, 76 will be closed from I-95 to the Roosevelt Boulevard exit.
The Vine Expressway, 676, will be closed in both directions.
U.S. Route 1 (City Avenue) will be closed in both directions from Route 30 (Lancaster Avenue) to Belmont Avenue.
When will those closed roads and highways reopen? PennDOT would not say.
City courts will be closed from the 23rd to the 28th. The city itself will be open, but services will be limited Thursday through Monday.
Bicyclists and pedestrians are free to move in and out of the traffic box at will.
Will Philadelphia public schools be open Monday, Sept. 28th? Nutter would not say.
There's also a map. An official map. The yellow lines are access routes for emergency vehicles. The green lines represent the "traffic box."
Still unanswered? Plenty. No news about the pope fence, for instance.
But the release of information today should help residents begin to get a handle on what they can and can't do during the days the pope is in the region.
Before today, information about the real-world impact of the pope's visit on the city has largely trickled out from unofficial sources, often creating more questions than answers. Word that the security perimeter would stretch from Girard Avenue to South Street leaked out at a Philadelphia Parking Authority board meeting weeks ago. A day later, a consultant for the World Meeting of Families said I-95 would be closed during the event and the security perimeter would be even bigger than what the PPA had said (relevant: that consultant was later "dismissed" from the pope planning process).
Then, two maps of the alleged security perimeter circulated the Internet last week. A rather irritated Nutter staged a press conference last Monday to announce that the images were inaccurate (as it turns out, the lines released on the formal map today look like a pretty good match for the map sketched out by BillyPenn last week).
Last week, he lambasted the press for reporting on the maps, saying, "At times, little people who have little pieces of information will try to put out what they have, what they think they have, in an effort to make themselves larger than they might be."
At Wednesday's press conference, Mayor Nutter struck a more conciliatory tone. "We are the chosen city," he said. "With that comes certain duties … yes, we will face challenges for a relatively short period of time, but we'll face them together, as a city, as a region."
Sources told Citified last week that the Nutter administration wanted to unveil more details about the pope's trip, but were unable to do so because of the Secret Service, which is overseeing security for the event.
The Secret Service has consistently said it will not publicly announce many logistical details associated with the pope's visit until three weeks before his arrival.
