The Gut-Brain Connection: How What You Eat Affects How You Feel
Dr. Brooke Scheller
Think of a time when you had a gut feeling about something—the first time you fell in love and had butterflies in your stomach. Or when you received bad news and felt a 'pit' in your stomach.
Truth is, none of that was physically happening in your stomach. The perceived emotions, feelings, or stressors sent signals from the brain to the gut, triggering this sensation that we're all quite familiar with.
How? It's called the gut-brain axis.
When I was a nutritionist working in clinical practice, we would often comment on how our society thinks of the human body in a disjointed manner.
If we're having a problem with our heart, we go to a cardiologist; if we're having a problem with our hormones, we go to an endocrinologist; if we're having a problem with our gut, we go to a gastroenterologist.
The issue is that we slice and dice all of our symptoms and body parts, often overlooking the fact that the body is wildly interconnected.
When it comes to the brain, we think of it as the control center of our bodies. It tells your arm to move, it regulates your body temperature, processes feeling and emotion — the list goes on.
But more recent research has revealed that the brain and gut are connected not only by physical connections through the nervous system, but also biochemically, because what goes on in the gut directly impacts the brain (and vice versa).
Both brain and gut health are of great interest at Freshly — we develop our meals in an effort to provide nutrients that can support the whole body — but this conversation is particularly timely, seeing as May is Mental Health Awareness Month.
And, as The New York Times reported recently, "better eating may be another tool in helping to ease depression and anxiety and may lead to better mental health."
In other words: Your symptoms of low mood, anxiety, poor focus, poor mental clarity, and even fatigue may not be specific to just your brain. There may be other factors, like the health of your gut, that could be influencing how your brain is functioning.
But, there's good news: The foods you eat can influence both organ systems, and can cause improvements in some of these symptoms naturally.
So, what's going on in the gut?
Allow me to nerd out a little.
The gut is a complex organ system that does much, much more than just digesting our food (the most obvious job). It is also critical in the absorption of nutrients, supporting the immune system, and producing by-products that impact the entire body's systems.
Additionally, much attention recently has been brought to the microbiome — the ecosystem of microorganisms, or 'bugs', that live within our gut.
The gut contains an estimated 39 trillion microbes, according to the Weizmann Institute of Science. These 'bugs' help us digest food and absorb nutrients, support our immune system, and keep things in working order.
The trouble with having these friends in our guts, is that sometimes the party gets crashed when too many of the 'bad guys' start to take control. The overgrowth of these pesky bugs can result in what we call dysbiosis. This means that the balance of the good bugs (aka our "probiotics") to bad bugs is skewed more towards the rebellious ones.
When this occurs, you may experience gastrointestinal symptoms — like minor bouts of constipation or diarrhea — or even be diagnosed with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome).
Whether or not you have GI issues, sometimes this dysbiosis can result in other symptoms that manifest in other areas of the body, such as the brain. Low mood or depression, anxiety or fatigue, poor memory, poor focus, and even fatigue can occur.
What's the gut-probiotic connection?
Because bacteria and other microbes in the gut feed off of sugar and carbohydrates, it's common for dysbiosis to occur when we consume a diet rich in these foods (think bread, pasta, sweets, desserts, and other high-carbohydrate or high-sugar foods). Yep, these bugs like pizza just as much as the rest of us.
In addition, many processed ingredients and even the use of antibiotics can negatively impact the balance of microbes in the gut.
On the other hand, if we're not providing the proper nutrients and foods to support the good bacteria can also result in too much of our unwanted friends.
Probiotics, another hot-button topic, are strains of bacteria that are known to have beneficial effects. They are often referred to as our 'good' bacteria. Probiotics are certain strains of bacteria that support healthy digestion and produce by-products that have positive effects within the body by helping to digest fiber and absorb nutrients, for example.
Additionally, probiotics help support the production of serotonin in our body. That's right — one of our "feel good" hormones for the brain is found within the gut. It's reported that about 90% of our body's serotonin is produced in the digestive tract, Caltech found.
How do I eat to support the gut-brain connection?
One way to enhance the balance of good bacteria is to consume fermented foods, like sauerkraut, kefir, and kimchi, which are great sources of probiotics.
Additionally, foods containing prebiotics can be helpful as well. Prebiotics are almost like food for probiotics (think of fertilizer for plants) that help support the growth and sustain the balance of these healthy bugs.
Prebiotics can be found in high-fiber foods like beans and legumes, and vegetables like sunchokes, leeks, plantains, onions and garlic, and asparagus.
Leafy greens and cruciferous vegetables (like broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and kale) are some of my favorite gut and brain supportive foods, because they're high in fiber, minerals and vitamins (particularly several B Vitamins).
Certain B vitamins like folate, B6, and B2 all play a role in supporting the production of our feel good hormones in the brain, like dopamine and serotonin.
Without enough of these nutrients, we may not produce enough of these brain chemicals and start to feel symptoms. Additionally, they are high in fiber that help support the balance of bugs in our gut.
Beets are another one of my favorite gut and brain foods: Not only are they chock full of vitamins and minerals, but they also help to generate nitric oxide, which dilates blood vessels and helps more oxygen reach the brain so it can receive the necessary nutrients to function at full capacity.
Another important food group to focus on is ensuring you're getting enough healthy fats in your diet. Omega 3s, in particular, provide support for the cells of the brain and support proper development.
Found in salmon, mackerel, sardines, walnuts, chia and hemp seeds, omega 3 fats also help to support and protect the gastrointestinal system.
The good news is that you don't have to be an expert chef to take care of your health. There are simple ways to incorporate these foods into your diet a few times per week.
For example, add a leafy green salad to your lunch or toss spinach into an omelet, roast a tray of broccoli and cauliflower to accompany dinner or swap regular rice with cauliflower rice instead (like we do here at Freshly). Aim to add a source of healthy fats, like wild salmon, to your menu once a week, or toss nuts and seeds on top of a salad.
Sprinkle in these ingredients on a regular basis and you're taking a big step towards better eating. Trust me, your gut and brain will thank you.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) announced global passenger traffic results for 2018 showing that demand (revenue passenger kilometers or RPKs) rose by a healthy 6.5% compared to full-year 2017.
Although this represented a slowdown compared to the 2017 annual growth of 8.0%, it was another year of above-trend growth. Full year 2018 capacity climbed 6.1%, and load factor edged up 0.3 percentage point to a record 81.9%, exceeding the previous high set in 2017.
December RPKs rose 5.3% against the same month in 2017, the slowest year-over-year pace since January 2018 and a continuation of the trend that saw demand growth decelerate to an annualized rate of 5% over the course of the 2018 second half compared to a 9% pace in the first half.
"2018 was another year of strong passenger demand, as aviation continued to support the global economy. We expect similar, if somewhat moderating performance in 2019. Nevertheless, slowing growth in the second half of 2018, coupled with concerns over issues including Brexit and US-China trade tensions, are creating some uncertainty to this positive outlook," said Alexandre de Juniac, IATA's Director General and CEO.
International passenger traffic in 2018 climbed 6.3% compared to 2017, down from 8.6% annual growth the year before. Capacity rose 5.7% and load factor climbed by 0.4 percentage point to 81.2%. All regions recorded year-over-year increases in traffic, led by Asia-Pacific. However, North America and Africa were the only two regions to post stronger demand growth in 2018 compared to the prior year's performance.
Asia-Pacific airlines' 2018 traffic rose 7.3%, compared to 2017, driven by robust regional economic expansion and an increase in route options for travelers. Although this was a slowdown from the 10.5% year-over-year growth recorded in 2017 versus 2016, it was strong enough to lead all the regions for a second consecutive year. Capacity rose 6.4%, and load factor ticked up 0.7 percentage point to 80.6%.
European carriers' international traffic climbed 6.6% in 2018 compared to the previous year, which was down from 9.4% growth the year before. Capacity rose 5.9% and load factor increased 0.6 percentage point to 85.0%, which was the highest for any region. On a seasonally-adjusted basis, traffic growth has softened a bit in recent months, likely owing, in part, to uncertainty over the economic backdrop and Brexit.
Middle East carriers' traffic increased 4.2% last year, down from 6.9% growth in 2017. It was the second year in a row of moderating demand growth. Capacity climbed 5.2% and load factor slipped 0.7 percentage point to 74.7%. The deceleration in growth reflects the impact of policy measures and geopolitical tensions, including travel restrictions and the temporary ban on large portable electronic devices. Traffic actually declined 0.1% year-on-year in December, but this may reflect volatility in data.
North American airlines had their fastest demand growth since 2011, with full-year traffic rising 5.0% compared to 2017, an increase from 4.7% annual growth in 2017. Here too, however, demand growth slackened noticeably in the last two quarters. This may be owing to increasing concerns over the US economic outlook and trade tensions with China. Capacity climbed 3.7%, and load factor edged up 1.0 percentage point to 82.6%, second highest among the regions.
Latin American airlines' traffic climbed 6.9% in 2018, a slowdown compared to 8.8% annual growth in 2017. Capacity rose 7.7% and load factor dipped 0.6 percentage point to 81.8%. Traffic was affected by the mid-year general strikes in Brazil as well as by political and economic developments in some of the region's other key economies.
African airlines saw 2018 traffic rise 6.5% compared to 2017, which was an increase compared to 6.0% annual growth in 2017. The strong performance took place in spite of the mixed economic backdrop of the continent's largest economies, Nigeria and South Africa. Capacity rose 4.4%, and load factor jumped 1.4 percentage points to 71.0%.
Domestic air travel climbed 7.0% last year, which was unchanged from the rate in 2017. All markets showed annual growth, led by India and China, which both posted double-digit annual increases. Capacity rose 6.8% and load factor was 83.0%, up 0.2% percentage point compared to 2017.
India's domestic market posted the fastest full-year domestic growth rate for the fourth consecutive year, with an 18.6% annual demand increase. Domestic demand is underpinned by robust economic expansion and increasing numbers of city pairs.
"Aviation continued to demonstrate why it is the Business of Freedom in 2018. We safely transported more than 4.3 billion passengers. These people used air connectivity to conduct trade and business, reunite with friends and loved ones, explore the world, and, in some cases even to begin new lives. Aviation makes the modern world possible, but we depend on borders that are open to people and trade to be effective. In 2019, we will be strong advocates against a rising tide of protectionism and trade conflict, so that the Business of Freedom can continue to do its part to make the world a more prosperous and happier place," said de Juniac.

The Board recognizes that an effective staff is critical to the smooth operation of the school system and to creating a learning environment in which students can succeed. The Board further believes that students will not excel in performance unless those who most directly affect students, including school administrators, teachers, and other licensed professionals, excel in their performance. For the purposes of this policy, the term "School Administrator" is defined as a principal, assistant principal, supervisor, or director whose major function includes the supervision of teaching or any other part of the instructional program.
School administrator contracts will be granted, extended, or renewed only for individuals of proven ability who strive for excellence. School Administrators should be able to facilitate student learning and effectively carry out the responsibilities of providing for school safety and enforcing student discipline. The Superintendent is expected to be able to substantiate any recommendation for granting a new contract, extending a current contract, or renewing a contract with evaluation data, as described in policy 7810, Evaluation of Licensed Employees, or with regard to applicants, with data from the selection process as provided in policy 7100, Recruitment and Selection of Personnel. If the Board is not satisfied that an applicant or employee has met the standards established by the Board, employment will be denied, following statutorily prescribed procedures.
An initial contract between a School Administrator and the Board will be for a term of two to four years as defined in NC General Statute. Four-year initial contracts will be granted only to exemplary school administrators. Absent unusual circumstances, two-year initial contracts will be granted for individuals who do not have experience as school administrators. In addition, one-year contracts may be granted to individuals who hold a provisional assistant principal's license. Subsequent contracts between a Principal or an Assistant Principal and the Board will be granted for a term of four years.
An employee who has a school administrator contract with the school system is expected to continue to strive for excellence, meet all performance standards established by the board, and pursue professional development as provided in policy 1610/7800, Professional and Staff Development. Any employee who is unable or unwilling to meet reasonable standards of the Board may be subject to demotion or dismissal, as provided in policy 7930, Professional Employees: Demotion and Dismissal, and in accordance with statutorily prescribed procedures.
If the Superintendent decides not to recommend that the Board offer a School Administrator a new, renewed, or extended contract, the employee has all procedural rights accorded by G.S115C-287.1.


Has the PM "knocked the brick wall down"?
Is climate change a left wing issue?
''I've knocked the brick wall down; this is going through, this is done, full stop.'' Prime Minister Julia Gillard, 10 July 2011.
The good news is that the modest carbon price announced yesterday will neither impoverish Australians nor bankrupt our economy. The bad news is that the modest carbon price announced yesterday won't save the planet either.
The plan negotiated between the government, the Greens and the Independents has finally acknowledged the need to empower individuals and communities to do their bit extra.
The Ross Garnaut-commissioned CSIRO's report Australians' views of climate change last year polled 3096 Australians and found that the biggest single predictor of whether Australians believe that global warming is caused by humans is their voting intentions. Voting intention would seem to be a strange thing to correlate with an issue that is essentially scientific.
Does that make climate change a left wing issue?

Astronomers Have Discovered Bizarre New Details About Titan's Methane Lakes
The Cassini mission to Saturn and its moons wrapped up in 2017, when the spacecraft was sent plunging into the gas giant to meet its end. But there's still a lot of data from the mission to keep scientists busy. A team of scientists working with Cassini data have made a surprising discovery: Titan's methane-filled lakes are much deeper, and weirder, than expected.
Titan is an unusual world. It's the only body, other than Earth, that has liquid on its surface.
Scientists suspect that some of the Solar System's other moons, like Enceladus and Europa, have liquid oceans. But those oceans are subsurface water oceans. Only Titan has lakes of liquid hydrocarbons.
During Cassini's final flyby of Titan, it aimed its radar at some of the moon's liquid lakes. The data shows that those lakes are up to 100 meters (300 ft) deep. The data from those final days also sheds new light on Titan's hydrocarbon cycle.
The study detailing these results comes from two papers published in Nature Astronomy. The first is "Deep and methane-rich lakes on Titan." That study features lead author Marco Mastrogiuseppe, Cassini radar scientist at Caltech in Pasadena, California.
The second study, called "The case for seasonal surface changes at Titan's lake district" features lead author Shannon MacKenzie, planetary scientist at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Maryland.
About Those Deep Lakes
Data from the Voyager probes gave us our first hint that Titan had liquid lakes. But that data was just inferential: it showed that Titan had the right conditions for them to exist.
It has to be very cold for hydrocarbons to exist in their liquid state. After the Hubble Space Telescope got going, it gave us direct evidence that the lakes were there, around 1995. Other observations supported the idea, too.
But in the early days of the Titan lakes hypothesis, we weren't sure if it held lakes or much larger oceans. Cassini arrived at Saturn in 2004, and although it didn't see any liquid lakes right away, it eventually found them at the poles, where scientists suspected they might exist.
Since then, many lakes and seas have been found on Titan, and there are lots of images of them.
Scientists have learned a lot about Titan, especially from the Cassini mission. But these new studies are going even further. And they're telling us much more than just the depths of Titan's hydrocarbon seas.
We already knew that the northern seas were filled with methane. But scientists were surprised to find that the much smaller lakes there were full of methane as well, where they expected to find ethane, a heavier hydrocarbon. The results shed new light on Titan's hydrocarbon cycle.
The hydrocarbon cycle on Titan works similarly to the hydrologic cycle on Earth. In both cases, evaporation forms clouds which eventually fall to the surface, forming rivers which flow into hydrocarbon lakes.
On Titan, liquid is evaporated near the equatorial regions then deposited as liquid at the polar regions.
"Every time we make discoveries on Titan, Titan becomes more and more mysterious," said lead author Marco Mastrogiuseppe, Cassini radar scientist at Caltech in Pasadena, California.
"But these new measurements help give an answer to a few key questions. We can actually now better understand the hydrology of Titan."
But Wait. It Gets Weirder
Titan is just plain strange. It has land features that are carved the same way they are on Earth, but with liquid hydrocarbons. But it's different in many puzzling ways.
The new data shows that the hydrocarbon cycle on one side of the northern polar region is different than on the other side.
On Titan's western side, there are small lakes, some no larger than 16 kilometres (10 miles) across. They're will above sea level, perched atop large hills and plateaus. The data paints an otherworldly image of mesas and buttes protruding hundreds of feet beyond the surroundings, with deep hydrocarbon lakes on top.
Titan's eastern side, however, features low-lying large seas, with canyons and islands. Why so different?
"It is as if you looked down on the Earth's North Pole and could see that North America had completely different geologic setting for bodies of liquid than Asia does," said study co-author Jonathan Lunine, Cassini scientist from Cornell University.
It may come down to the underlying geology. Scientists think that they formed when the surrounding bedrock of ice and solid organics chemically dissolved and collapsed.
It's similar to some Earthly areas in Germany, the US, and other places, where features called karstic lakes form when water dissolves limestone bedrock.
The new data also shows that Titan may feature transient lakes. Both radar and infrared data show these lakes, with their liquid levels fluctuating significantly in short periods of time.
Shannon MacKenzie, lead author of "The case for seasonal surface changes at Titan's lake district" thinks that seasonally-driven changes explain these transient lakes.
"One possibility is that these transient features could have been shallower bodies of liquid that over the course of the season evaporated and infiltrated into the subsurface," she said.
Taken together, both papers paint a picture of the hydrocarbon cycle on Titan where hydrocarbon rains feed the lakes, which then are subject to evaporation. But not just evaporation; some of the liquid likely seeps into the subsurface, which would leave reservoirs of liquid hydrocarbons below the surface.
Titan's surface features are shrouded by the moon's thick, visually impenetrable atmosphere.The data behind these studies was gathered largely by radar, much of it obtained during Cassini's final close flyby of the Moon in April 2017.
The Cassini team knew this was their last opportunity to look at Titan's small lakes, and they feel that they made the best of it.
"This was Cassini's last hurrah at Titan, and it really was a feat," Lunine said.

A Connecticut mystery 1 year later: A timeline of the Jennifer Dulos, Fotis Dulos case
Jennifer Dulos, 50, vanished on May 24, 2019. Her husband died in Jan. 2020.
ByEmily Shapiro
• 16 min read
Estranged husband of missing mom in critical condition
Fotis Dulos, who was recently charged with killing his estranged wife Jennifer Dulos, is in critical condition after he was airlifted to a hospital for carbon monoxide poisoning.
New Canaan Police Department
Immediately after Connecticut mom Jennifer Dulos mysteriously vanished on May 24, 2019, during a custody dispute, her estranged husband, Fotis Dulos, was under suspicion.
But it wasn't until January 2020 that Fotis Dulos was arrested for her murder. A few weeks after his arrest, he died from an apparent suicide.
The body of Jennifer Dulos has never been found.
One year after Jennifer Dulos' disappearance, here's a timeline of the case, from the divorce filing to her husband's arrest and death.
2017: A contentious separation
Jennifer Dulos and Fotis Dulos married in 2004 and filed for divorce in 2017.
MORE: Mom of missing Connecticut woman Jennifer Dulos files for custody of her grandchildren
In 2017, Jennifer Dulos filed for an emergency order for full custody of their five children, which was denied, court documents show. Jennifer and Fotis Dulos were granted shared custody of the children until the end of the divorce proceedings.
Family of Jennifer Dulos
Jennifer Dulos, 50, of Connecticut, is pictured with her five children in an undated family photo.
Jennifer Dulos alleged that her husband exhibited intensifying "irrational, unsafe, bullying, threatening and controlling behavior," stating that she was afraid for her safety as well as the physical safety and emotional well-being of their children.
I know he will retaliate by trying to harm me in some way.
The New Canaan mother alleged that Fotis Dulos threatened to kidnap their children in May 2017 if she did not agree to his terms in the divorce settlement and that he had bought a gun that year.
She alleged that on June 3, 2017, Fotis Dulos "became enraged, appeared out of control, and blamed me for scheduling activities for the children on a Saturday morning... I was scared and tried to leave the room. He followed me upstairs and into a bedroom,where he shut the door and blocked it so that I was trapped as he verbally attacked me and physically intimidated me."
"I am afraid of my Husband," Jennifer Dulos alleged. "I know that filing for divorce, and filing this Motion will enrage him. I know he will retaliate by trying to harm me in some way."
New Canaan Police Department via AP
This undated photo released May 31, 2019, by the New Canaan, Conn., Police Department shows Jennifer Dulos, missing since May 24.
In Fotis Dulos' amended reply to the motion, he claimed he legally bought the gun in 2017 for home security.
He denied exhibiting "irrational, unsafe, bullying, threatening and/or controlling behavior."
MORE: Missing Connecticut mom Jennifer Dulos may have suffered 'serious physical assault'
Fotis Dulos stated that he never threatened to kidnap the children and never "physically threatened, stalked or assaulted" his wife.
Fotis Dulos also stated that his wife called him a psychopath and told the children that he does not care about them. In addition, Fotis Dulos claimed that his wife said to the children, "I will make sure this divorce takes two and a half years," and "I can have the Mafia break your dad's legs with a baseball bat."
Fotis Dulos said in a Dec. 2017 email to his wife: "Our children deserve a mother AND a father, not one or the other. And if we cannot live together, we can at least get along for their sake and benefit."
May 2019: Jennifer Dulos vanishes
Jennifer Dulos, 50, was last seen on May 24, 2019.
Police in Connecticut are looking for Jennifer Dulos, 50, who was last seen on Friday, May 24, 2019.
She was last heard from while dropping off her children at school, according to police, who say she was believed to be driving her 2017 black Chevrolet Suburban at the time.

Her vehicle was later found near Waveny Park in New Canaan, police said.
Matthew Mcdermott/Polaris
The FBI and police search the woods inside Wavenly Park for the remains of Jennifer Dulos, in New Canaan, Conn., June 3, 2019.
Investigators believe Jennifer Dulos suffered a "serious physical assault" in her garage, where blood stains and blood spatter were found, according to arrest warrants.
"We miss her beyond measure — her five young children, her family, her friends, colleagues and neighbors, as well as countless people who have never met her but who have responded to the spirit of grace and kindness that Jennifer embodies," family spokesperson Carrie Luft said in a statement.
The Dulos' five children remain in the custody of Jennifer Dulos' mother.
June 2019: Arrests
Fotis Dulos, 51, of Farmington, and his live-in girlfriend, Michelle Troconis, 44, were arrested on June 1, charged with tampering with or fabricating physical evidence and hindering prosecution, according to authorities.

They both pleaded not guilty.

Clothes and sponges with Jennifer Dulos' blood were found in trash cans in Hartford, where the documents said surveillance cameras captured a man appearing to be Fotis Dulos disposing of garbage bags in multiple receptacles, according to the documents. A woman in the passenger seat of the man's car fit the appearance of Troconis, according to the documents.
Norm Pattis, Fotis Dulos' attorney, told ABC News on June 11 that he can't account for the surveillance footage or the bags in the dumpster. But he insists his client didn't kill his wife and doesn't know where she is.

Based on the timeline of the day Jennifer Dulos went missing, "it seems to be implausible" that Fotis Dulos could have killed her, his attorney said at the time.
"The alibi is enormous," Pattis said. "We are anxious to meet those accusations and clear his name."
July 2019: Fotis Dulos speaks out
Fotis Dulos released a rare public statement in July, saying he understands "the public's perception of me as a monster given the little they know about the case."
"But I trust the system and the process and ask the public to do the same," he said.
(MORE: Fotis Dulos and girlfriend arrested for murder in case of missing Connecticut mom Jennifer Dulos)
"My children are the center of my world," he also said. "I worry about them and Jennifer, and I would tell them that I know it is hard now but everything IS going to be alright eventually."
Jennifer Dulos in an undated photo.
September 2019: Another arrest
Fotis Dulos and Troconis were arrested again in September on another charge of tampering with evidence. They pleaded not guilty.
January 2020: Murder charges
Fotis Dulos was taken into custody by Connecticut State Police at his home on Jan. 7, 2020, and was charged with capital murder, murder and kidnapping, police said.
Authorities allege Jennifer Dulos was killed at her home on May 24, 2019 between 8:05 a.m. and 10:25 a.m -- after she returned from taking her children to school, according to an arrest warrant.
Fotis Dulos, the estranged husband of missing Connecticut mom Jennifer Dulos, was charged with capital murder, murder and kidnapping.
Police claim Fotis Dulos bound Jennifer Dulos with zip ties, put her inside her own car and cleaned the garage, according to an arrest warrant.
Pattis told ABC News, "Mr. Dulos has contended he's not guilty."
Troconis was charged with conspiracy to commit murder. Kent Mawhinney, an attorney and a friend of Fotis Dulos, was charged with conspiracy to commit murder. They pleaded not guilty.
January 2020: Fotis Dulos dies from suicide
On Jan. 28, 2020, Fotis Dulos was hospitalized in critical condition to be treated for carbon monoxide poisoning, after his attorney said he attempted suicide at his Farmington, Connecticut, home.
After Fotis Dulos failed to show up for his emergency bail hearing, officers performed a wellness check at his house, according to the Farmington police.
MORE: Fotis Dulos, accused of killing wife, in critical condition after attempted suicide
Through a window, the officers saw him in the garage. Fotis Dulos was unresponsive, but officers determined CPR was required and called for an ambulance.
Fotis Dulos died on Jan. 30 at a New York City hospital, said his attorney.
Fotis Dulos allegedly hand-wrote a suicide note proclaiming his innocence and that of everyone charged.
"I refuse to spend even an hour more in jail for something I had NOTHING to do with," he allegedly wrote in the note, which ABC News obtained from a source.
"I want it to be known that Michelle Troconis had nothing to do with Jennifer's disappearance. And neither did Kent Mawhinney," he added.
March 2020: Murder case ends
On March 3, a judge granted a nolle prosequi request by prosecutors to dismiss the murder charges against Fotis Dulos, ending that criminal case.
The nolle prosequi is not an acquittal but an acknowledgement of the reality that the prosecution of Fotis Dulos cannot continue. It gives prosecutors one year to re-file the charges or they are dismissed. It also lifts the gag order imposed on the parties and frees witnesses from their obligations.
MORE: Defense claims Fotis Dulos was framed for murder of estranged wife
Pattis had asked the court to continue the case so he could attempt to clear Fotis Dulos' name by substituting his estate as the defendant.
At the March 3 hearing, Pattis said his client was framed. Pattis claimed someone murdered Jennifer Dulos and dumped a pile of bloody clothing on the family porch. Those, Pattis said, were the items Fotis Dulos was seen on surveillance video dumping into the trash on a Hartford street.
May 2020: Pandemic puts cases on pause
Troconis and Mawhinney remain charged, but the coronavirus pandemic has put their cases on pause.
"Not one step has advanced in this case," Troconis' attorney, Jon Schoenhorn, told NBC Connecticut this month.
Mawhinney, who is in custody, is due in court on June 2.
Troconis, who is in Connecticut under house arrest, is next in court on August 6.
Troconis said in a new statement this week, "I know nothing about Jennifer Dulos' whereabouts or what may have happened to her."
"To those who are quick to judge people they do not know, let me say this: It is possible to misjudge others. Whether or not Fotis Dulos was capable of doing the things the police and prosecutors accused him of doing, I do not know," Troconis said. "But based on what I have learned in the last year, I think it was a mistake to have trusted him."

The Haqqani Network has released footage of its fighters going though training at a camp situated along the Afghan-Pakistan border. The video provides an interesting and previously unseen look at the Haqqani Network's training of its recruits. The footage of Haqqani Network fighters being trained was included in an approximately 69-minute-long video commemorating the team that assaulted the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul on June 28, 2011.

Q: Python replacing characters in a dictionary of strings using a dictionary I have two dictionaries: clues where the key is a letter and the value is its corresponding symbol, and words where the key is a word made up of entirely symbols, and the value is the word with all of the symbols replaced by the correct letters.
For example, clues may look like this:
clues = {'!':'A', '2':'B', '^':'C'}

And words like this:
words = {'!2^':'ABC', '^12':'CAB'}

I need to loop through each character of each key in words and replace any character that corresponds to any key in the clues dictionary.

A: Try this:
#!/usr/bin/python
#-*- coding:utf-8 -*-

clues = {'!':'A', '2':'B', '^':'C'}

d = ['!2^', '^!2']

words = {}

for i in d:
    words[i]=''
    for x in i:
        words[i] += clues[x]

print words

Don't forget to confirm it as an answer if it helps you. Thanks!

A: What about:
clues = {'!':'A', '2':'B', '^':'C'}
words = {'!2^':'ABC', '^12':'CAB'}

result = { "".join([clues.get(c,c) for c in k]):v for k,v in words.items() }

from pprint import pprint
pprint(result)

Producing:
{'ABC': 'ABC', 'C1B': 'CAB'}

Lundy Leadership provides a series of management and supervisory skills workshops designed specifically for application in team environments. The workshops address issues common to all managers, supervisors and team leaders and many can easily be tailored for presentation to employees and associates. Most workshops have been developed as full-day seminars, but can also be designed for shorter time-frames, such as a half-day, a brown-bag lunch or a keynote presentation.
These seminars are designed to be interactive, experiential and challenging. We guarantee lively and enlightening classes designed to keep participants interested and engaged. Workshops consist of presentations, small and large group discussion, small and large group experiential exercises, assessments, case studies, Q&A and individual work. The instructors use a variety of media to illustrate the topics covered.
Our aim is to create maximum "take home" value – we want participants to be able to go back to their work settings and successfully apply what they have learned! At the end of each course, participants develop an Individual Action Plan to help put newly-learned or reinforced skills in place back in the office or at the work site.
Increased Productivity: These workshops teach participants how to interact with the workforce of the new millennium – how to lead people in today's environment – improving the motivation and productivity of work teams.
Immediate Application: Skills learned are always related back to the work setting.
Enhanced Retention: Since the seminars are part of a comprehensive curriculum, the information participants learn in one workshop is reinforced and built upon in the other workshops.
Class size is usually limited to 20 participants, to allow for maximum interaction with others and to increase the level of individual participation. Exceptions to class size limits may be made on a case-by-case basis.

After almost three years of tests and experiments, TOSCA has now gained currency as a tool capable of enhancing oil slick tracking models, enabling more accurate tracking of drift pathways following maritime accidents. Current results are however based on limited periods of observation. In order for the authorities to obtain US-style real-time data on coastal surface currents and more accurate oil spill drift forecasts, HF radars would have to be deployed more extensively along the Mediterranean coastline and be monitored continuously.
The TOSCA team will soon present to the authorities a web interface tool to aid decision-making. It will display the ocean currents and the pathways of floating objects tracked during experiments. Still based on data gathered during in-situ test periods, this tool would however deliver real-time information to the relevant authorities, if the use of radars and drifters were to be extended.

The Annual Report of Trust Assets (ARTA) forms and instructions for 1999 will soon be sent to commercial banks, savings banks and savings associations that have approval to exercise trust powers. Affiliated trust companies must also complete the report. Institutions completing hard- copy forms must submit the report by February 15, 2000. Institutions submitting the annual report via the Internet have until March 15, 2000, to complete and submit the report.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) collects and processes the forms on behalf of the member agencies of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC). The information is used in the supervision and examination of trust institutions by the FDIC, the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Office of Thrift Supervision.
Internet transmission of the report is faster and more efficient than hard-copy submission. Several online edits are built into the system, which should eliminate follow-up calls from the FDIC's Trust and Survey analysts. For detailed instructions on how to submit the form electronically, please refer to FIL-101-99, dated November 5, 1999, which can be accessed from the FDIC's Web site (www.fdic.gov) under "News, Events and FOIA." Questions about electronic filing may be e-mailed to trust@fdic.gov.
If your institution does not exercise its trust powers, you must so indicate in item one of the signature page and return only that page in the envelope provided with the report, or by completing item one and submitting the form electronically. In addition, Schedule D should be completed only by those few institutions that have an affiliated investment advisor. In such cases, the affiliated investment advisor must complete the hard-copy form (electronic submission of Schedule D is not allowed) and return it directly to the FFIEC at the address shown on the form, not to the FDIC.
Based on the data collected for the Annual Report of Trust Assets, a book will be published with information on trust assets, collective investment funds, corporate trust activities, affiliated investment advisors and fiduciary income. Those institutions required to respond to this request will receive a copy of the book. The information in the annual trust publication will also be available on the FDIC's Web site under "Bank Data."
For more information on filing requirements, please call the FDIC's Trust and Survey Group at 1-800-765-4081, or contact your primary supervisor at the telephone number listed on page two of the instructions.
NOTE: Paper copies of FDIC financial institutions letters may be obtained through the FDIC's Public Information Center, 801 17th Street, NW, Room100, Washington, DC 20434 (800-276-6003 or (703) 562-2200).

Bakken Shale Gives Eagle Ford Shale a Run for Its Money
The Law Offices of Tyler & Peery Jun 16, 2012
The Bakken Shale in North Dakota is poised to become a behemoth of natural gas and oil production. The Bakken Shale is attracting oil and gas workers in droves, those who are hoping to make it big there, just as the Barnett Shale and Eagle Ford Shale in Texas have done and continue to do.
In fact, the Bakken Shale might just become the second largest producer, second only to the mighty Texas shale plays, as James Vlahos writes for Popular Mechanics, meaning that the 25,000 square-mile region is about to get a whole lot busier.
Texas has for some time been enjoying the benefits of hydraulic fracturing, which cuts through the hard shale. Though, like the Bakken Shale, it hasn't been enjoying it for very long. This means that we've likely got years ahead of us in terms of oil and gas production.
This assumption squares with what a Texas Department of Public Safety trooper said in the post we wrote earlier this week: that there's been double and triple the amounts of traffic and that the oil companies aren't going anywhere for awhile.
In the years to come, it's likely that the Eagle Ford Shale in Texas will continue to produce the most oil and gas in the U.S. Coming in second will be the Bakken Shale in North Dakota. We'll have to wait and see whether these efforts will lead to energy independence, as Vlahos wonders.

Joseph Tieffenthaler (ou Joseph Tiefentaller), né le  à Salorno, près de Bolzano (Italie) et décédé le  à Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh (Inde), était un prêtre jésuite autrichien, missionnaire en Inde. Sa Descriptio Indiae le fit reconnaitre comme le père de la géographie indienne moderne en occident.

Biographie

En Europe
Joseph Tieffenthaler entre dans la Compagnie de Jésus, à Landsberg (en Bavière), le . Sa formation spirituelle et académique terminée il passe deux ans en Espagne où il est ordonné prêtre en 1743. La même année il quitte l'Europe (via Lisbonne) pour l'Inde. Arrivé à Goa il n'y reste pas longtemps car il est destiné à ce qui était appelé la Mission du Grand Mogol.

Premières années en Inde
À Âgrâ, capitale de l'empire moghol, Tieffenthaler est recteur du collège jésuite. Mais il voyage beaucoup ; il visite Mathura, Delhi, Surat, Jodhpur, Jaipur (et l'observatoire de Jai Singh II). En 1747 Tieffenthaler se trouve à Narwar, un petit royaume de l'Inde centrale (aujourd'hui dans le Madhya Pradesh) où il est, entre autres activités, chapelain des Bourbons. Pendant 18 ans Narwar sera son point d'attache. Un séjour sans doute plus long que prévu car il lui est impossible de revenir en territoire portugais (Goa), sous peine d'être arrêté, car en 1759 le Portugal du marquis de Pombal, a expulsé tous les jésuites résidant au Portugal ou dans ses colonies.

Géographe en Inde
De Narwar il sillonne l'Inde du Nord et en particulier la plaine du Gange. De tous les lieux qu'il visite il fait de minutieuses descriptions et relevés géographiques. Il écrit « Si ce n'est le salut des âmes et leur conquête pour Dieu, rien ne me passionne autant que l'étude de la situation géographique des lieux, la variation de vents, la nature du sol, et le caractère et les coutumes des régions par où je passe ».

La Compagnie de Jésus n'existant plus en Inde, Tieffenthaler fait face à de grandes difficultés financières. En 1765 Il décide de se rendre à Calcutta - la ville fondée par Job Charnock en 1690 - pour demander aux anglais une aide financière qui lui permette de poursuivre ses recherches scientifiques : « cette célèbre nation anglaise, bien connue pour son humanité, ses libéralités et sa charité pour les pauvres ». Il saisit l'occasion pour visiter le Bengale, et son université de Nadia. Et à Bandel : « l'église des jésuites est presque en ruines »

Apparemment sa mission est couronnée de succès, car il rentre à Lucknow, capitale du royaume d'Oudh, et ne semble plus avoir de problèmes financiers. Lucknow sera son port d'attache pour le reste de sa vie. Il continue à sillonner les régions du Gange et ses tributaires. En 1778 il apprend la nouvelle de la suppression universelle de la Compagnie de Jésus, l'Ordre religieux auquel il appartient, par le pape Clément XIV (en 1773). C'est avec tristesse que, en 1781, il remet aux pères carmes la responsabilité de la mission et résidence d'Âgrâ.

Lui-même reste néanmoins en Inde et y continue ses observations géographiques. Jusqu'à la fin de sa vie il réside à Lucknow. Il y meurt le . Son corps est cependant porté à Âgrâ ou il est enterré dans le petit cimetière des jésuites derrière l'église dite 'église d'Akbar'.

Œuvres principales
Joseph Tieffenthaler, qui n'est jamais rentré en Europe, est en correspondance suivie avec les esprits scientifiques du vieux continent, en particulier avec le docteur Christian Kratzenstein, recteur de l'université de Copenhague et l'orientaliste français Hyacinthe Anquetil-Duperron (y compris lorsque Anquetil se trouvait lui-même en Inde, de 1755 à 1762). L'un et l'autre feront connaître la grande œuvre en 5 volumes de Tieffenthaller, le premier en allemand l'autre en français, non sans parfois mettre à leur compte ce qu'ils ont obtenu de Tieffenthaler.
 Description historique et géographique de l'Inde [Descriptio Indiae] (ed. par J. Bernoulli, 5 volumes, Berlin, 1786-1789). L'œuvre est une description détaillée de 22 provinces de l'Inde du nord, de ses villes de grande et moyenne importance, ses forteresses, y compris leur position géographique exacte (calculée au moins d'un quadrant). Elle inclut également un grand nombre de cartes et plans avec croquis dessinés par lui-même.
 Carte générale du cours du Gange et du Gagra (ed. par H. Anquetil du Perron, Paris, 1784). L'œuvre comprend une grande carte du cours inférieur du fleuve (de Patna à Calcutta), du cours moyen (Bénarès à Patna), une carte de la région du fleuve Ghaghra (affluent du Gange) avec notes, croquis et cartes des régions ou se trouvent les sources des tributaires principaux du Gange.

Autres écrits
Tieffenthaler a également écrit sur le 'Brahmanisme', sur la religion des Parsis, l'Islam, les relations des religions entre elles, l'origine des Hindous et de leur religion. Dans le domaine de l'astronomie : des observations sur les taches solaires, sur l'astronomie et cosmologie hindoue. Dans le domaine des sciences naturelles : des descriptions détaillées de la flore et de la faune indienne. En histoire : les expéditions de Nadir Shah en Inde, une chronique des faits et actes de l'empereur Shah Alam, une chronique de l'histoire contemporaine (1757 à 1764), etc

Connaissant plusieurs langues orientales, dont l'arabe, le persan, l'hindoustani et le sanskrit, Tieffenthaler composa un lexique Sanskrit-Parsi, et un traité sur la langue des Parsis.

So...I was never really there? It was all a dream? Or does Michigan get it now?
Uncle Salty "...while beggars can't be choosers, choosers rarely have to be beggars."
Vacating wins/titles is such bull. First of all, the game happened and you can't literally erase that from people's minds. Second of all, the game doesn't/can't automatically go to the other team - so now there is just no champ? Third, what happens to the revenues and such generated by the game. Does Louisville give that back? Nope. They got all the benefits, and now, 5 years later we are just happenstance erasing it?
Just fix the problem and enforce your own rules. That's the real way to handle all this. Stop turning a blind eye and acting like this doesn't happen.

Yeah it makes no difference whatsoever. Not even a wrist slap.

I say we get it. Runner-up in the NIT = almost NCAA champ and now that the champ vacated... Runner-up in the NIT = Champ.

For best results use 5-6 drops into your hands, rub the hands together then massage into the beard, mustache or goatee and into your skin. For an extra bushy beard use a couple more drops. It can be used on damp or a moist beard or used the tamer and conditioner oil after a shower. The drops of Beard oil can be combed through the beard with a wide tooth comb if desired. This will distribute the oil more evenly. Rub any extra into your hands so they get the benefit of moisture too. Use morning and night for the best benefits.
I like a soft, healthy, shiny beard on a man. I formulated this natural beard oil with the best botanical and essential oils to help tame the wiry, thick or dry whiskers. It is concentrated, so a little bit goes a long way.
