Waddle up to the lounge above the Night Club & play 10 levels of Astro-Barrier. Wait 30 seconds, then shoot the blue ship to uncover secret levels!
Head to the Dance Lounge, and click the Astro Barrier machine, then start to play the first ten levels. This might be difficult at first, but Best King 58 has kindly allowed me to feature a helpful video which shows you how to complete these levels!
Tip: You can press "1" on your keyboard to skip straight to level ten when on the start screen, but that probably goes against this activity's rules!
When you get to level ten, don't begin level eleven. Instead, wait thirty seconds and a blue target will appear. Press the left key and line up your rocket-like-thing and the blue target, then click the spacebar to fire, just like normal!
You will then have completed today's activity, and a staff member is eligible to give you 1001 coins! You will know if you get the coins as a pop-up will now appear informing you if the coins have been added to your account.
Thank you very much for reading, good luck with the challenge!

Behind the Scenes of ABC's Single Parents
November 28, 2018 By Sara @MomEndeavors
In addition to the set visit to ABC TV's "The Rookie" that I shared yesterday, we also had the fun opportunity to visit the set of ABC's "Single Parents" during our #RalphBreakstheInternetEvent press trip! The show airs on Wednesdays at 9:30/8:30c (also streaming now and on demand) and it's a hilarious look at parenthood– especially single parenthood as the title suggests! Are you watching? Read on to see some fun behind-the-scenes photos from our set visit!
About Single Parents
The series stars Taran Killam as Will Cooper, Leighton Meester as Angie D'Amato, Kimrie Lewis as Poppy Banks, Jake Choi as Miggy Park, Marlow Barkley as Sophie Cooper, Tyler Wladis as Graham D'Amato, Devin Trey Campbell as Rory Banks, Mia Allan as Emma Fogerty, Ella Allan as Amy Fogerty and Brad Garrett as Douglas Fogerty. Rebecca Creskoff guest stars as Big Red. This ensemble comedy follows a group of single parents as they lean on each other to help raise their 7-year-old kids and maintain some kind of personal lives outside of parenthood.
The series begins when the group meets Will Cooper, a 30-something guy who's been so focused on raising his daughter that he's lost sight of who he is as a man. When the other single parents see just how far down the rabbit hole of PTA, parenting and princesses Will has gone, they band together to get him out in the world and make him realize that being a great parent doesn't mean sacrificing everything about your own identity.
They were all SO great! I'll also note that Brad Garrett is SUPER tall! Obviously I knew that from watching him on TV, but meeting him in person confirmed this! 🙂 So now, how about a fun photo tour of our set visit?!
Single Parents Set Photos
Like I mentioned before, Jason & Jake were GREAT tour guides! They were both SO enthusiastic about the show, which was such a treat! They made me even more excited about watching the show and I LOVE that!!! In addition to their enthusiasm and joy about the show, one thing that REALLY stood out was the attention to detail. Each single parents' house had it's own style with PERFECT staging to evoke the right feel. The little details (like LEGO bricks on the table, a messy kitchen, a busy/messy girl's room, etc) are super key in bringing that across in an authentic way, which is clear that Jason and the crew gets! We also got to visit the "Winebrary"! I think every town needs a wine-brary, don't you?!?! Such a fun concept!
It was a whirlwind of a tour, but so much fun! Thanks to Jake and the Single Parents crew for showing us around!
About "The Best" Episode (airing TONIGHT – 11/28/2018)
"The Beast" – Will encourages Angie to rediscover her passion for heavy metal music by taking a guitar class, and in turn, Angie insists that Will get back in the field covering weather by driving both of them into a storm. Meanwhile, the rest of the gang explore their romantic passions as Douglas pursues his crush on Big Red with the help of Miggy, and Poppy feels an instant connection with a dreamy musician, on an all-new episode of "Single Parents on The ABC Television Network, streaming and on demand. "The Beast" was written by Lamar Woods and directed by Josh Greenbaum.
Be sure to tune into SINGLE PARENTS on Wednesdays at 9:30|8:30c on ABC (also available streaming and on demand)!

Formula 1 / United States GP / Breaking news
Alonso says there's "more amateurs" in F1 than in WEC
Pablo Elizalde
Fernando Alonso says there are "more amateur" drivers in Formula 1 than in the World Endurance Championship after his crash with Lance Stroll in the United States Grand Prix.
Alonso was hit by Williams driver Stroll as they approached the esses on the opening lap, the contact causing heavy damage to the McLaren, which retired after returning to the pits.
Stroll was able to continue and was given a drive-through penalty for causing the crash.
Alonso, who was also involved in an incident with Stroll in Japan, hit out at the FIA for not doing enough to stop that kind of driving.
"I'm not upset. I'm disappointed because I'm nine days here in the US to do a race and I do 600 meters of the race and they push you off," said Alonso.
"That's the way it is, but it's more a problem for the FIA if they keep allowing this type of driving. I drive in another series with amateur drivers, theoretically, and there has never been a problem.
"There are more amateurs here than in other series," added the Spaniard, who races in the WEC with Toyota.
"Maybe when there's a big crash they will do something.
"Until then we'll try to have fun in other categories where we race against 34 cars, against amateur people, against 60-year-old men and nothing ever happens.
"Here we need bumpers, like the rental go-karts, so we can all crash into each other."
The two-time champion, who is retiring from F1 at the end of the year, believes the level of the drivers currently competing in Formula 1 is lower than it was in the past.
When asked if drivers in F1 where more aggressive than in WEC, he said: "No, the level is lower.
"I race in the WEC and they are very aggressive as well and we have three different categories there, some amateur drivers in the GTE-AM, but no one crashes into each other. There's another mentality.
"Sometimes you make a mistake or you try to take a risk at the start, or you can overshoot your braking point or make a mistake.
"But it's like Spa, where you start and suddenly they are playing bowling with you. Here again, you start and they play bowling with you and you have the bad luck of having to retire."
After the race, however, Alonso took to Twitter to dial back on the criticism after seeing replays of the incident.

Hahnemann Hospital closure
Bankruptcy judge approves $55 million sale of Hahnemann residency program
Cris Barrish
Hahnemann University Hospital. (Emma Lee/WHYY)
The owner of Hahnemann University Hospital can sell its medical residency program to a consortium of six local health systems led by Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals, a judge has ruled, in a blow to the federal government.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Kevin Gross announced his decision from the bench in Wilmington on Thursday afternoon.
Gross said the controversial sale, which was opposed by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, was one of those cases that "cause a judge to lie awake at night."
Nevertheless, the sale at auction last month of more than 550 residency slots for $55 million met the statutory requirements and could proceed, Gross ruled.
Noting the federal government's strenuous and persistent argument that the residency program was not an asset Hahnemann could sell, Gross would not let the hospital and the consortium close the deal Friday, as the parties had hoped to do, but gave the government seven days to appeal.
Jefferson combined forces with three Philadelphia systems — Einstein Healthcare Network, Temple University Health System and Main Line Health — and Cooper University Health Care in Camden and Christiana Care Health System in Wilmington to win the final bid in a lengthy auction process.
Hahnemann's owner had initially reached an agreement to sell its residency slots for $7.5 million to Tower Health, which has six area hospitals in Philadelphia's suburbs, Chestnut Hill, and Reading. Tower was outbid during the auction process, however.
Gross said in court Thursday that the $55 million sale figure "is in the court's view a stunning success for debtors."
While Hahnemann, a hospital that served many of Philadelphia's poor residents, is closing, its owner is selling St. Christopher's Children's Hospital, which it has said is profitable.
The bankruptcy petition was filed on June 30, about 18 months after Tenet Healthcare Corp, sold Hahnemann and St. Christopher's to an entity formed by California investment banker Joel Freedman for $170 million.
A source familiar with the position of Hahneman's creditors told WHYY Thursday after Gross ruled that they are pleased that the sale can go forward and debts can start to be satisfied,
Many worry, however, that such a decision could open the door to hospital systems bundling and selling off valuable residency programs as a commodity.
U.S. Justice Department attorney Marc Sacks had argued in court Wednesday that in the Affordable Care Act, Congress laid out the process for redistributing medical residency slots when a hospital closes.
It outlines a system for prioritizing hospitals interested in acquiring residents and awards the slots to them, free of charge, through a public bidding process. Sacks said this has happened 14 times since 2010, and that Jefferson had participated in the bidding process.
"If Hahnemann is closing, Congress has said what happens to its residency slots," Sacks said.
The ruling came just one day before Hahnemann has pledged to close its doors forever.
The hospital hasn't provided in-patient care since late July, and its emergency care ceased in August. But in court Wednesday an official said there were still about 80 employees in roles such as helping former patients find medical services elsewhere and transferring medical records – at a cost of 8 million to $10 million every two weeks in borrowed financing.
Gross told some 50 lawyers and others crowded into his courtroom Thursday that the "emotionally charged matters" affect the "delivery of health care in the city of Philadelphia," especially to the needy.
He also noted that many people have been put through "great pain by this debacle" but praised the consortium for "having stepped into the breach" to buy the residency programs.
Justice Department attorney Sacks took issue Thursday with some points in the judge's order, suggesting that an appeal was likely.
"We believe there is significant irreparable injury for this transaction going forward," he told Gross, saying it had "nationwide" implications.
Assets, or not?
During Wednesday's lengthy hearing, Sacks had also argued that the residency slots are not assets in their own right — they're simply the right for a hospital to receive Medicare money.
"What this transaction is is the right to have these 500-plus permanent residency slots going forward," Sacks told the judge. "They're not purchasing Hahnemann's equipment, patients, staff, or medical records."
Attorney Mark Minuti, who represents Hahnemann owner American Academic Health Systems, disputed that point.
He pointed to a different statute of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code that interprets the programs as an asset.
Sacks added that even if Judge Gross deemed the hospital still open, federal regulations stipulate that a Medicare provider number can be transferred only with a change of ownership.
He argued that because only the residency programs were being transferred and not all of Hahnemann's operations, that did not constitute a change in ownership.
Minuti argued that, effectively, the consortium of six hospitals had in fact already taken on the operations of Hahnemann.
"They have our doctors, they have our patients, all at nearby locations," Minuti told the judge.
In his ruling Thursday, Gross said he was satisfied that there had been "no cessation of business" at Hahnemann.
Laurence Merlis, executive vice president for strategic partnerships at Jefferson, testified Wednesday that the consortium has hired 265 of Hahnemann's former residents and more than 400 staff members who worked there, with 200 more in various stages of employment.
Minuti had also argued there was nothing in the statute specifying how many assets needed to be transferred from one hospital to another to constitute a change in ownership.
"Clearly, the government would prefer that there be some handcuffs on how this works," Minuti said Wednesday. "But where is the line? There is nothing stipulating how many of your assets you have to sell."
Broke in Philly
The loss of Hahnemann resonates a year later as COVID-19 and Black Lives Matter protests roil Philadelphia
The imposing shell of the shuttered safety-net facility has become a symbol of inequity in health care amid a pandemic that has hit Philly's Black population especially hard.
Hahnemann building's owner stymies city's bid to lease it for COVID-19 cases
Mayor Jim Kenney accuses owner Joel Freedman of "jacking up monthly prices." Councilmember Helen Gym calls for seizing it via eminent domain.
Hahnemann building eyed as option for overflow in case of COVID-19 outbreak
The city's hospitals are too full to handle a coronavirus outbreak, so officials are looking for a space to accommodate patients or those in quarantine.

Upon arriving on the island, he meets a rival trader named Case, who (in an apparently friendly gesture) arranges for him to be "married" to a local girl named Uma in a ceremony designed to impress the natives but to be completely non-binding in the view of Europeans. "The Beach of Falesá" was written after Stevenson moved to the South Seas island of Samoa just a few years before he died there.


Snails in Paris? Why not!
While abroad, I had to take care of myself. Yes, I had either program or Babson resources available if I had a question, but I learned to operate and solve problems on my own. Lost in Venice with only an Italian phrase book and no one speaks French or English? No problem! I have to register at the Sorbonne in person and all in French? Sounds fun! The taxi in Sekondi has broken down and I need to negotiate for a new one? Bring it on! I learned to be self-sufficient and use my skills to solve the problem at hand.
Education abroad is a phenomenal chance to push the boundaries of your comfort zone and to explore your passions. While I was in Paris I did a marketing internship with a French-American Cooking school. I love marketing and I love food so it was a perfect chance for me to see how a business in France operates first hand. I was able to put my marketing skills to the test and to learn about French culture through food. I tried foie gras and escargot and I now I love them! You'll never know what you can accomplish if you never allow yourself to take advantage of every opportunity.
3) Exploring the world is the best thing ever and the more you travel, the more you want to travel!
I have been lucky enough to have set foot on 4 continents (North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa). Hopefully I'll be able to travel to South America and Australia sooner rather than later! And maybe one day I'll go to Antarctica but that is not at the top of my list. Sharing my Education Abroad story and hearing about my peer's experiences has made me want to explore more of the world and see what it has to offer. Employers also love seeing that I am not just a dual American and Canadian citizen but that I am a citizen of the world. With the language skills I gained in Paris and my experience teaching entrepreneurship in Ghana, I can set myself apart in a global marketplace.
Brett is originally from Southern California and is an Education Abroad Advisor in the Glavin Office of Multicultural and International Education. He advises for semester and academic year programs in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Brett has traveled to every continent except for Antartica. He enjoys running, traveling, and trying new food!

Coach inspires program growth
Nickie Morris, Assistant Sports Editor
This season, women's basketball already has the most wins they've had in one season this decade, according to UVM athletics.
So far, the team is 11-16 with just one regular season game remaining, according to UVM athletics.
Former women's basketball head coach Chris Day resigned in April 2018, according to a Cynic article from that month.
Since Alisa Kresge was appointed as interim head coach, the women's basketball team has shifted its philosophy, leading it to success.
She also runs a summer basketball camp at UVM where first through 12th grade girls can learn and improve their basketball skills from Division I players, according to the camp's website.
Next season, the team does have six new confirmed recruits that will also start practicing with the other members of the team this summer, Kresge said.
The women's basketball team will stay in Burlington for most of the summer for training and getting into shape, she said.
Kresge motivates her players during practices, forward Hanna Crymble, a junior, said, and there's a strong focus on improving the team's defense.
The results of the upcoming games could put them as high as third place in their America East division, or at worst, in fifth, according to the America East website.
Despite this success, Kresge said that she focuses on the present and extends this view to the rest of the team.
"We're trying to look at it one day at a time, but of course the playoffs are coming," Kresge said. "The big thing for us is we're trying to finish strong, keep confidence going into whatever the situation is and keep getting better until then."
The Catamounts have won six of their last 10 games, all of which have been against America East conference opponents, according to UVM athletics.
Their remaining game is against No. 3 Stony Brook University March 2 in Stony Brook, New York, according to UVM athletics.
Despite this upcoming challenging conference game, Kresge said that she is confident and enthusiastic about the UVM women's basketball program.
"I really like what I'm able to do with our players," she said. "I think [the players] understand how intense I am on the court and they're doing all that we ask of them, which is really the best you can ask for."
In addition to the higher standard of play, Kresge's time at the helm has also been highlighted by new hires on the coaching staff.
Assistant coaches TJ Sawyer and Eileen Van Horn were both brought in by Kresge, and Dominique Bryant joined in 2017, while Kresge was an assistant coach.
The all-time leader in assists at Marist College as a player, Kresge came to UVM after assistant coaching there for seven years, according to UVM athletics.
While a senior at Marist University in Poughkeepsie, New York, Kresge and her team made the 2007 NCAA March Madness tournament, losing to the number one seeded University of Tennessee, according to the Marist basketball website.
Crymble has watched Kresge's transition from assistant coach to head coach and said that she is pleased with the team's turnaround.
"We're still really excited about her, she's a great coach who cares about all of us and she knows how to individualize our practices and push each one of us," she said. "Spirits are high on our team."
Guard Josie Larkins, a sophomore, said that she enjoys the overall improvement of the team.
"We've just become more confident and we've grown as a team," she said.

A set of dissimilar toys sharing common battlespaces can successfully accomplish a task by selecting, for each given tactical situation, the best cluster of players. But only if they can talk.
There is a doctrinal pre-condition for cooperative success. This is well illustrated in the Old Testament story of the tower of Babel: any coalition has to share both a communication code and the means to exchange it, in order to avoid the tower's mission failure.
Time and space variables, often presented as constraints and restraints in military planning, are now a key transformation factor in Air and Space Power. The existence of solid new communications protocols linking a vast collection of platforms federated through their mission computers is a key enabler for further NATO success.
Communication is ultimately important. Through communication, we agree and disagree. Strategically, communication helps us resolve conflicts and synchronize in time, space and action with our allies. This paper, however, is not about STRATCOM. Instead, it addresses forms of tactical communication that will contribute to the organization and synchronization of complex warfare activities at platform level through future automated correlation which is controlled or supervised by a battle manager.
As distances can be the main constraint for an operation involving linked Air and Space assets, this article will reflect the importance of local interaction among platforms sharing a specific network ('net'), that is to say, with certain degree of proximity. This will allow us to build a concept based on 'bottom-up' interaction, using the Core Air and Space Power activities as a constant, as almost any Command and Control (C2) structure will grow from their orchestrated execution within certain spatial area.
Regarding the structural approach to communication in a networked environment and Air and Space operations, AJP 3.31 (A) (NU) is the scaffolding which categorizes the aforementioned Core Air and Space Power Activities. There is a certain correspondence between these Activities and the air and space, ground, maritime and cyber domains, where cooperative patterns of interaction may be formed through future options of data exchange.
Moving one doctrinal step down from the Joint to the Tactical level: the concrete morphology of Air Power actions can be found in the Bi-Air Command Regional Manual 80-06 (NR). This manual describes the various contexts of Air and Space Power Activities by establishing common ground for the tactical employment of Air Power in terms of standards, coordination, and now communication.
Manual 80-06 (NR) includes about 20 structure-related definitions related to the 'zone' concept, structures that integrate and define what Matthew Flintham poetically calls 'martial heavens'. The most common ones are the Fighter Area of Responsibility (FAOR), the Fighter or Missile Engagement Zones (FEZ-MEZ), the Desired Engagement Zone (DEZ) and the Restricted Operations Zone (ROZ). It also includes detailed descriptions of ground position reference systems, which correlate entities executing Air Power Contribution to Surface Operations (one of the five Core Air Power Activities comprised in AJP 3.3) with ground-based entities.
In addition to the aforementioned standard zones, a variety of back-up spaces, such as sanctuaries or safety corridors, will apply when certain systems degrade. Some zones will be system dependent, related to weapons or sensors employment. Other zones will be defined by the C2 in a specific Airspace Control Order (ACO) for transit, de-confliction, coordination, backup or weapons status. Other zones will be conceived regarding the opponent's systems and targets taxonomy. All those zones and the activities within their borders need to be known and exploited at the maximum level of synergy by the C2 structure without limits for the different occupants of each space and for their managers in the C2 operations centre. That may be done through a solid data exchange protocol.
COMAO missions are the classic approach to space and time compression in modern Air Power activities. The COMAO consists of a number of dissimilar aircraft (a subset of Air Power elements or a cluster of platforms / sensors / weapons) fulfilling a common task by means of complementing each other's tactical role while executing cooperative tactical management functions, which include C2 as well as certain decision and delegation schemas.
Traditionally, COMAO components shared a limited and de-conflicted airspace and a detailed (and pre-planned) supporting – supported tactical structure throughout a single mission. However, communications (voice and basic data) were limited to a basic architecture and platforms sensors were not federated for threat detection and reaction. Spaces (areas or zones) were tied to a specific voice-communication pattern and information exchanges (and, thus, potential tactical support) among the various portions of airspace were few or none, as the assets could neither see their neighbour's radar tracks nor monitor their frequencies from their visual bubbles, boxes, corridors and cylinders.
From classic schemas of COMAO execution to highly dynamic operations like Time Sensitive Targeting (TST), the introduction of the Multifunctional Information Distribution System (MIDS) in some platforms federated certain sensors among some of the users of each net. Information about targets, threats and task changes began to flow to and from on-board displays, reducing action and reaction times in the tactical environment.
These features marked the beginning of the end of an Air Power era that relied on hand signals and radio calls. As a consequence of this data exchange, based mainly in symbols and icons for better situational awareness, the TACOM2, the executive brain in the C2 system, has increased agility (through his battle managers) and can solve the main aspects of the Babel challenge through an agreement called LINK, which is a specific military tactical data exchange network.
JEZ stands for 'Joint Engagement Zone', however, 'engagement' is only one management function. Therefore the broader term of 'Employment' and the acronym JEZ+ will be proposed as shown in the title of this article.
In the past, the concept of Clear Avenue of Fire (CAF) together with interrogation and labelling of unknown or ambiguous tracks have been the main obstacles for a safe 'Collaborative C2' schema of engagement, requiring a de-conflicted C2 solution. Traditionally, these solutions were space and time based, and Non-Cooperative Target Recognition Systems (NCTR) (Identification Friend and Foe / Selective Identification Feature (IFF / SIF) and Electro-optical systems) were not robust enough to provide the JEZ option at an acceptable level of safety. Until now, controllers, pilots, tactical planners and GBAD operators have lived with spatial boundaries (coordination lines, BENO ['do not be there'] lines or segregated areas) within their private engagement zones, where the topology of MEZ, ROZ and FAOR did not coincide.
JEZ+ becomes possible when the position, ID and future intention messages flow among the blue forces across the battlefield in seconds or less once a track has been positively identified, labelled and declared according to decision rights allocation within the Management Functions distribution in that particular C2 context. Current platforms are equipped with MIDS / LINK, interrogators and Electro-Optical Identification (EOID) pods, among other capabilities. Connectivity through MIDS or an equivalent system (even portable) will be a must for all future operations, not only for those in JEZ+ environments.
All these associative forms of life or technology need a continuous space, like the sea for the fish or the air for the bees, where individuals generate the space they need for their different states or functions through local interactions while maintaining common goals with their colony. Civilian air traffic de-confliction is beginning to be based in 'quickly reactive for change (…) floating airspace baselines'8 mainly through a tri-dimensional iterative process based in mathematical models, simulations, software development and operations.
In the military environment, however, these concepts may bring new software applications to current platforms for increased force / system/weapon effectiveness as well as for traffic or tactical flow de-confliction.
Situational awareness (SA) displays may incorporate new features based on a dynamic airspace model which would generate graphics consisting of danger-close bubbles defined by certain trajectory and fuze values sent by the shooter to other nearby platforms.
These dynamic features would generate a de-conflicted 3D battlefield updated in real time. SA could be maintained through simple software upgrades, including the associated blast and debris diagrams around the air or ground targets for awareness. Friendly aircraft, manned or not, would adapt their tactical patterns to that immediate and dynamic spatial segregation through steering indications on their Head-Up Displays (HUD) or even through auto-pilot commands to the Flight Control Computers given by the Blue Force Tracker brain to de-conflict weapons launches.
5th Generation aircraft or ground stations will relay / filter / prioritize / declutter and / or convert the format of these LINK signals and pass them to the different players of the cluster initially through user-friendly apps in compatible systems, either fixed or portable. Once full integration is accomplished, LINK data may be directly passed to their different Mission Computers for geo-location based situational awareness displays as well as for spatial de-confliction and effective weapons management. As the kill chain is compressed, the battle can be accelerated and won.
Whatever the process, the resultant force delivering air power within the spatial limits of a JEZ+ should approach the demands of the last degree in maturity that Alberts et al. (2010) propose: the 'Edge' level, where self-synchronization would reflect the immediate confluence of mission and circumstances. This would resolve time gaps in decision making and solve CAF conflicts among entities. It would also help to supress double-targeting or untargeted adversaries in the way that a swarm adapts the formation and the manoeuvre as a derivative of the tactical situation within its JEZ+ space. Nevertheless, a strong backup option (today's primary) must always be emphasized in training.
JEZ+ training would measure how efficient the task becomes under such connected environment. Compatible software developments and criteria would also be necessary. But the most challenging part is the grasping of this new battlefield concept, which is similar to the Marines' practices in amphibious operations in which all systems play together. From an aviator's point of view, it may be difficult to accept a Patriot missile as a wingman, a Reaper as a Sandy in a Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) mission or a frigate as a Sweeper in Air Sea battles. However, time and technology will see the development of the best axioms for a joint force in shared airspace.
The core activities of air power, current technologies and tactical doctrine options may all need to be re-visited in the search for patterns of combination among entities (multi-labelled in capabilities, systems, platforms, and weapons) in order to achieve maximum efficiency. Training JEZ+ with dissimilar platforms and compatible software modelling may enhance tactical options in new challenging scenarios. Exercise designs should include new C2 features which test the advantages and backup options that fighting JEZ+ brings to the Operational and Tactical arenas … where the talking toys play.

Dr. Daniel Khalaf receives the 2020 Foundation Medicine – PCF Young Investigator Award
With a growing number of effective treatment options available for metastatic prostate cancer now available, there is a need to determine an approach which would more easily identify which treatment option would be most beneficial for each individual patient.
Dr. Khalaf's project titled Developing a Novel ctDNA-Based Approach to Patient Risk Stratification and Treatment Selection in mCRPC: A Large Population-Based Cohort Study, was developed under the mentorship of Drs Kim Chi, medical oncologist and chief medical officer at BC Cancer and Alexander Wyatt, scientist with the Genome Sciences Centre at BC Cancer and senior research scientist at the Vancouver Prostate Centre. He will review tumour DNA from blood samples of prostate cancer patients with the intent to determine what their response to different treatment options would be and to help inform oncologists.
"Ultimately, our approach will help better select the optimal initial and subsequent treatments for men with metastatic prostate cancer," said Khalaf, researcher with the BC Cancer Research Institute. "This will improve the likelihood of long-term tumour control, longer survival and better quality of life. In addition, this will avoid unnecessary toxicity from treatments which have a low likelihood of success. It will improve our ability to predict treatment outcomes and provide more accurate prognosis which will be empowering to patients and families."
The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) Young Investigator Awards program identifies future research leaders who will keep the field of prostate cancer research vibrant with new ideas. The Young Investigator Awards offers support for young (generally 35 and younger) investigators in postdoctoral fellowships or who have recently achieved junior faculty positions and are committing their lives to the field of prostate cancer.
Visit the Prostate Cancer Foundation for more information about the PCF Young Investigator Awards, and to learn more about Dr. Khalaf's project.

My name is Heidi. But prefer to be called Snowrose as that's what everyone calls me. I am profoundly Deaf and that's by way of genital birth... During the rubella/German Measles epidemic in the early 60s.
I used to think I liked beading. I had a challenging time trying to understand the instructions. They were like puzzles to me!
I bought a new table weaver and am extremely interested in weaving! It has fascinated me for years upon years!
In January, to be exact, 21, January 2018 I made my first starter.
I made focaccia sourdough bread and that turned out well. I've learnt NOT to double the recipe!! I made my first SD bread but it was a total flop. I was told it was over fermented. I left it in the Br�d Taylor proofer overnight at 80�. I have not made breads since then due to the failures.
I still have confusions with the starters. I am not able to understand why some starters I see, are very active whilst mine are both fine but not aggressive as what I've seen.
Btw, I pre ordered Wild Bread and love it! I've yet to make any of the recipes out of not having confidence in myself.
I hope to have confidence restored. This whole SD baking process has me unbelievably fascinated!!!
Welcome Snowrose from northeast Texas. I'm looking forward to hearing about your adventures with Wild Bread.
Hello Snowrose. Wild Bread (MaryJane&Ashley), have made SD bread making an adventure for success. Glad to see another fellow bread maker ready to take on this new and rewarding experience.
Welcome to the chatroom, Snowrose! I hope that you do make some of the recipes from Wild Bread. I think that the fact that there are so many different methods and opinions out there for the best approach to sourdough making make it seem more complex than it really is. Truthfully, all you need to create a bubbly, active mother is flour, water, and air. What kind of flour are you using for your mothers?
Hello Snowrose! I�m in Holmes County, Ohio, so we are practically neighbors! Sourdough can seem complicated until you get the hang of it, then it is easy! Just hang in there...and this forum is going to help a lot! Browse through the posts, there are helpful pics of what the starter should look like etc.
My mom is the only sourdough baker I know right around me, and she doesn�t bake much for just herself, so I�m kind of on my own too. Welcome!
Hello to all of you whom have welcomed me with open arms!
Firstly, I wish to apologise for not responding earlier. I've never used a chat room and am hoping this works out. I cannot figure out how to respond to individual parts.
Due to personal reasons, I have not been online much. Now appointments for this week is just twice this week. Next week is everyday. In due time I cannot wait to be finished with those hours long boring appointments!
Hello Nelle! I'm not overly familiar with Ohio. I'll have to Google to find out where Holmes County is located. If we are close enough, we need to give ourselves a party day of making SD breads in due time! When did your mother first start making SD starters? I just started January 21, 2018.
The type of flour I use is KA unbleached flour and Deer park filtered water.
My starters have never been aggressive like I've seen in pictures. But!! One time I thought there was a problem with the starters, so I decided to add 60g of rye flour from our local co-op (organic of course) with 60g of water. Umm!!! Next day I saw a huge mess on top of the fridge! I haven't messed with that again! So I only use KA flour. I would include the pictures but do not know how to do that in a chat room.
I have an old 80s Magic Mill that is in storage. I need to clean it and sell it as the sound bothers me. I used to mill hard red winter wheat and hated it. I'm just not a wheat person and never have been. I'm more of a strictly organic unbleached white flour type of gal. I am open to different flours that do not have the wheat (dense, heavy) taste to it.
I made SD focaccia yesterday, but started it the night before. It was picture perfect except that the darned focaccia decided to cement itself to the pryrex pan. Ugh... I just hope this isn't a curse put upon me. I'm determined to succeed as there's nothing better than SD breads and whatnot!
To see my focaccia, go to freespirited(underscore)snowrose and hopefully you'll see the very first Instagram pictures I've put up yesterday!
I'm going to discard and then feed the starters right now so I can hopefully find something to make tomorrow using its then fresh discarded starters.
I've had difficulty getting KA flour to work and I think it's because they add barley malt to their bread flour. You should try another flour, one of the flours listed in Wild Bread.

About the GSN
Applying to the GSN
Abdellah Research Center
Contact the GSN
Congress appropriated funding in 1992 to implement a training program for nurse practitioners (NPs) at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USU). After receiving operational authority in 1993, Dr. Faye Glen Abdellah, founding Dean of the Graduate School of Nursing (GSN), began recruiting faculty and staff, developing curricula, and the first 3 NP students matriculated in August 1993. In 1996, the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) approved the GSN as a funded School of the Department of Defense (DoD) and in 2008 the GSN received dedicated classroom and faculty space in Building E on the USU campus. Students in the Masters of Nursing (MSN) and Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) Advanced Practice Nursing (APN) programs are all commissioned officers in one of the Uniformed Services. Students receive full pay and allowances, free medical care, tuition, books and lab fees while at USU and upon graduation, in return all graduates complete a service obligation determined by their sponsoring Service or Agency.
The GSN enjoys a collaborative and cooperative relationship with the Chief Nurses of the four uniformed services (Army, Navy, Air Force and United States Public Health Service) and nursing leaders from the Department of Veterans' Affairs (VA) and the American Red Cross. All together these federal nursing leaders represent over 125,000 nurses with a beneficiary population exceeding 8.5 million. Nursing leaders from the uniformed services and VA coordinate the clinical specialties and numbers of graduate nurses with the GSN to meet the needs of the Uniformed Services. They nominate and authorize students to apply for admission to the GSN programs and ultimately employ all GSN graduates. USU is also tightly connected to military and federal stakeholders. The Surgeons General of the four Uniformed Services are ex officio members of the University Board of Regents (BOR) which creates a direct and open communication channel between the services, USU leadership, and USU/GSN curriculum.
The GSN offers both an MSN and DNP degree option for advanced practice nurses and upon program completion, graduates are eligible to sit for national certification in the following advanced practice nursing specialties: Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), Registered Nurse Anesthetist (RNA), Perioperative, Adult-Gerontology Clinical Nurse Specialist (AG-CNS), Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and Women's Health Nurse Practitioner (WHNP). The GSN also offers a full or part-time Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing Science (PhD) degree.
The first 3 students to matriculate were FNP students who arrived in August 1993. Since that time FNP students have continuously matriculated in classes ranging in size from 7 to 29. As of May 2018, a total of 270 FNP students have graduated from the MSN program and another 74 from the DNP. The first CRNA students matriculated in 1994 and have been continuously admitted since that time, in cohorts ranging from 11 to 37 students. As of May 2018, a total of 341 RNA students have completed the MSN and another 51 have completed the DNP. In 2002 the GSN established the nation's only AG-CNS program with a focus on Perioperative nursing. To date the AG-CNS program has graduated 63 MSN prepared clinicians who have had an enormous impact on patient safety and improved outcomes in the high risk perioperative environment. In 2007 the services asked the GSN to establish a PMHNP program option to increase the number of uniformed mental health providers. The first students were admitted in 2008 and as of May 2018, 22 PMHNP students have completed the MSN degree and 34 have earned a DNP degree. The newest APRN program in the GSN is the WHNP program. Established at the request of the Air Force, the first students arrived in 2014. Built on the foundation of the FNP curriculum, WHNP students are offered the opportunity to certify as both WHNP and FNP clinicians. As of May 2018, a total of 4 DNP WHNPs have graduated, all of whom have successfully passed both the FNP and WHNP certification examinations. The PhD program admitted the first students in 2003, and 40 nurse scientists have completed the program many of whom now hold very senior leadership or scientific positions.
GSN graduates are uniquely prepared for practice and research in Military and Federal Health Care Systems. The "signature curriculum" has three foci: 1) Operational Readiness in a Changing Environment, 2) Clinical Decision-Making in the Federal Health Care Delivery System, and 3) Population Health and Outcomes, with cross-cutting emphasis on patient safety, evidenced based practice/research, leadership, the cultural and political environments, and the transition of technology to practice. The PhD program, established in 2003, has a focus on areas of research germane to military and federal health.
GSN faculty and staff: have an exceptional blend of experience in the military and/or Federal Health Care Systems, provide a distinctly different educational experience and are dedicated to producing graduates well prepared to deliver health care in a wide variety of settings and communities, in the U.S and around the world. The GSN is committed to promoting clinical excellence, furthering research and scholarship in healthcare and to inter-professional collaboration in education with the School of Medicine including the departments of Military and Emergency Medicine; Preventive Medicine and Biometrics; Medical and Clinical Psychology; and Neuroscience.

Afterwards Henry King engaged Marie Osborne for several other movies as a child star. To these movies belong "Little Mary Sunshine" (16) - with this movie she became an international movie star, "Shadows and Sunshine (16), "Twin Kiddies" (17) and "Sunshine and Gold" (17).

Afterwards she retired from the film business and did not return till 1934.
In the following years she only impersonated very small roles in productions like "Roberta" (35), "The Last Days of Pompeii" (35), "Stage Door" (37), "Follow the Boys" (44), "Arch of Triumph" (48) and "Bunco Squad" (50).
Beside it she also was a stand-in for Ginger Rogers, Betty Hutton and Deanne Durbin.
