Aim: This study assessed the impact of dietary modification on cardiometabolic, inflammatory and oxidative stress indices in Nigerians with metabolic syndrome (MS).
Subjects and Methods: Sixty participants with MS were selected using the International Diabetes Federation criteria from a cohort participating in "Risk Assessment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus and Dementia in Nigerians with Metabolic Syndrome" study. The subjects were seen by a Dietitian and the approximate percentages of total calories from total protein, total fat, polyunsaturated fat, and carbohydrate were calculated from dietary history and pegged at 20%, 30%, 14% and 50% respectively. To ensure compliance, each participant was seen monthly (for 6 months) by the Dietitian. Glucose and lipid profile were determined using enzymatic methods. Serum activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), Myeloperoxidase (MPO) and levels of nitric oxide (NO), malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), total protein and albumin were determined using spectrophotometric methods while high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and tumuor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) were determined using ELISA. Student's t-test (paired) and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used for statistical analysis as appropriate. P-value <0.05 was considered significant.
Results: The mean blood pressure (BP), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), body fat, NO, hsCRP, H2O2, total protein and globulin were significantly reduced while the mean HDL, MDA, albumin and activities of CAT and MPO were significantly increased post-dietary modification compared with baseline.
Conclusion: Short-term dietary intervention improved cardiovascular risk, inflammation and oxidative stress indices in Nigerians with MS.
Cardiometabolic risk factors, dietary modification; high sensitivity C-reactive protein; inflammation; metabolic syndrome; oxidative stress.

[Abstract] German Functionalist School challenges the traditional concept of fidelity by attaching importance to intended text functions,addressees,time and place of reception,medium,etc. and offers a brand new perspective for translation studies. Based on skopostheorie put forward by the school and from the perspective of intentionality of translation,the present study makes an analysis of functional,cultural,and linguistic translation errors in the scenic spot publication translation of Zhuhai,and the author points out its significance in tourism publication translation.

Grandma Bettie's Little angels
Eight-thirty at night was too late for the girls to be out — they knew that. It was getting dark in the Villa West Mobile Home Park where they live in northwest Greeley, and they knew they should be heading home.
But, first, they had to check on Grandma Bettie. Bettie Waldron is 71 years old, loves the neighborhood children and is known to everyone as Grandma Bettie. She lives in her mobile home with Scooter, a lively 13-year-old Maltese breed dog who loves the kids as much as Grandma.
Waldron raised five children, mostly alone, and they all graduated from Colorado State University. She lived in Sterling, then Fort Collins and now Greeley. Today she has 15 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren and many others who call her Grandma Bettie.
Not long before this night, Grandma Bettie had spent eight days in the hospital with a heart problem, and she was still a little weak.
Becky Moody, 10, and Isabel Mora, 7, are best friends who live just up the block from Grandma Bettie, and they stop by often.
"They never stay very long," Grandma Bettie says. "They just check on me and leave. They never stay so long they make pests of themselves."
On this night, with darkness coming on, Becky and Isabel didn't know why they had to take the long way around to their homes to look in on Bettie. They had never before gone to her house after dark.
Two hours before the girls started walking to Grandma Bettie's house, Waldron was standing in her kitchen when she felt the first chest pains.
"I crawled into the living room, where the phone was, to call for help," Bettie said. "When I picked it up, I realized the phone in the bedroom was off the hook, and I couldn't make a call."
Waldron sat on the couch for a few minutes to regain her strength, then tried to walk to thebedroom. Her legs gave out and she collapsed on the floor, caught between the couch and the coffee table. She was unable to move.
"I was there at least two hours," Waldron says. "I hollered for help, but nobody heard me. I knew I was going to die." Scooter laid down next to her, as if to keep her company.
Then, about 8:30, came the knock at Grandma Bettie's door.
"Grandma, are you all right?" came the small child's voice. A weak, barely audible reply, "Come in … "
The girls found Grandma Bettie on the floor, unable to move, very weak. She told them to put the receiver back on the hook in the bedroom and call 911.
The girls were first afraid the 911 operator wouldn't listen to them. "We're just kids," Becky said.
But Becky made the call, then ran to get help from the neighbors. Isabel stayed with Grandma Bettie, covering her with a blanket because she was cold.
Bettie was rushed to the hospital that night, and at first, doctors thought she wouldn't make it. Three days later, she was back home.
And she called the newspaper because somebody had to know about Becky and Isabel. "Two little angels flew down that night at just the right time," Grandma Bettie says now.
"They weren't supposed to be out so late that night, and I know they got in trouble for it."
The girls will soon return to school. Becky, a fifth-grader at Dos Rios Elementary, loves sports, especially baseball; Isabel, a third-grader at Madison Elementary, is an artist who likes to color.
But even after school starts, the girls say they'll still make the stops at the house, just to make sure.
"We love to go to Grandma Bettie's," Becky says.
And Grandma Bettie loves to have them around.

This is Stella. She's a long haired dachshund and lives with a neurological condition that can make her quite wobbly. Some days her hind legs do not work properly and she gets around in a wheelchair. Her person adopted her immediately when she heard about the puppy who was partially paralyzed.
Her human wanted to commission a portrait of Stella from her canine perspective. I asked Stella if she was interested.
"I don't know," she hesitated. "I'm not creative. I don't want to disappoint her."
I didn't coax her. I explained her person's interest and communicated that there was no pressure. If she didn't want to do a portrait together, I could recommend an artist that would do a lovely traditional portrait of her from a photograph. I told her that if she wasn't really excited about it, she could tell me and I'd find a way to break it to her person.
Her human and I chatted as Stella considered her decision. She's quite deliberate and thoughtful.
The portrait above is how Stella wanted her person to see her. It's not fancy or loud. It's modest and calm. It's quietly intense. Stella most loves looking up at her person, and that's what she wanted to give her human.
Art isn't about wild creativity. It's not about technique or trailblazing.
Art exists to connect us. We create art to express ourselves and perhaps move someone else.
According to her human, that is precisely what Stella did with her piece. She knew what would resonate with her person, and she knew what feelings she wanted to evoke.
What a beautiful tribute and an equally beautiful portrait!

Hecate Enthroned is a melodic black metal band from the UK formed in 1993. They were often compared to fellow countrymen Cradle of Filth. They were accused of copying their style, mostly vocals wise, in their earlier albums but this is not surprising due to the fact that Jon Richard, one of Cradle Of Filth's many ex-bass players, was the vocalist on their first three albums.

La Villa del Balbiano, nota anche come Villa Giovio Balbiano, è una storica residenza di Ossuccio sul lago di Como.

Storia e descrizione
La villa è il risultato di numerose ristrutturazioni apportate a quello che era il cosiddetto pretorio della Pieve d'Isola, palazzo quattrocentesco che attorno alla metà del XVI secolo era stato devastato da un'alluvione. Nel corso dei secoli, la villa fu oggetto di numerosi passaggi di proprietà che, per più di una volta, ebbero come protagonista un esponente dei Giovio, famiglia che probabilmente era già in possesso del primitivo edificio plebano.

Dai Giovio, la villa fu in un primo tempo venduta al cardinale Tolomeo Gallio (1596), che dai precedenti proprietari ottenne anche una serie di disegni che la stessa famiglia aveva commissionato a Pellegrino Tibaldi, in vista di una futura ristrutturazione. Il cardinale, che nel 1586 aveva ottenuto la contea delle "Tre Pievi" (Gravedona, Sorico e Dongo), lasciò la villa all'omonimo nipote, Tolomeo Gallio duca D'Alvito. Quest'ultimo, facendo forse riferimento ai progetti del Tibaldi, diede il via a una campagna di rimaneggiamenti, i quali proseguirono anche quando la villa passò agli eredi del duca.

All'abate Marco Gallio (già commendatore della basilica di Sant'Abbondio) si devono invece gli interventi che, negli anni 1636-1638, interessarono le facciate e altri spazi esterni. Alla metà dello stesso secolo risale la realizzazione dell'esedra. I lavori di decorazione del salone di mezzo, affidati ai pittori comaschi Recchi, vennero invece eseguiti quarant'anni dopo il termine degli interventi riguardanti gli spazi esterni.

La villa rimase nelle mani dei Gallio fino all'ultimo quarto del Settecento, quando si registrarono una serie di cambi di proprietà. Il primo passaggio avvenne nel 1778, con la villa che passò dai Gallio ai Giovio. Nove anni più tardi fu la volta del cardinal Durini, che acquistò la proprietà da Giambattista Giovio e la trasformò nella sua nuova villa di delizie, trasferendovi il proprio celebrato cenacolo letterario e abbandonando le ville Mirabello e Mirabellino di Monza, da dove fece trasportare la sua ricca biblioteca e le sue collezioni d'arte. Sulla falsariga di queste ville monzesi, il cardinale Durini fece costruire Villa Balbianello sull'adiacente dosso di Lavedo, acquistato appositamente per questo scopo. La proprietà del Durini rappresentò il periodo di massimo splendore di Villa del Balbiano, che dopo la morte del cardinale passò di nuovo ai Giovio.

Nel corso del XIX secolo, Villa del Balbiano versò a lungo in stato di abbandono, fino a quando la proprietà fu rilevata dagli industriali tedeschi Gessner (1872). A questi ultimi si deve la riconversione della sala da ballo dell'ala ovest dell'edificio in una filanda, distrutta nel 1930.

Un restauro della villa commissionato dal monacense Hermann Hartlaub allo svizzero Vuillomenet, fu svolto dopo la Seconda guerra mondiale. I lavori di restauro riguardarono anche il giardino della villa (che era già spianato nel corso del XVII secolo), nel quale venne ripristinato un giardino formale e vennero piantumati alberi e sempreverdi come la osmanthus fragrans.

Successivamente, la villa fu di proprietà della famiglia Canepa per oltre trent'anni, fino a quando nel 2011 fu rilevata da un'immobiliarista russa.

Nel 2021 la Villa del Balbiano è stata utilizzata per le riprese del film "House of Gucci", diretto da Ridley Scott.

12 dead as gangs battle for dominance over Haiti's capital
December 2, 2022 December 2, 2022 Gift BADEWO
A mayor told The Associated Press on Thursday that more than 12 people were killed and numerous homes were set on fire in a community near the capital of Haiti as gangs fought for control of more territory. The incident occurred near midnight on Tuesday in the small town of Cabaret, northwest of Port-au-Prince, according to Mayor Joseph Jeanson Guillaume.
In light of the recent increase in violence in Haiti, the community recently appointed locals as guards, but they were overpowered by gangs armed with machine guns, he said.
Guillaume stated, "There was nothing they could do to defend themselves." This is an awful incident.
Images and videos shared on social media depict the bodies of mutilated victims strewn outside their homes and fires consuming more than 20 houses throughout the night.
Guillaume demanded that the Haitian National Police bring the perpetrators to justice and increase their presence and resources in Cabaret, which he described as a "lawless zone."
In addition, he urged town residents to show solidarity with those fleeing their homes in order to avoid being killed by "ruthless gangs" and to "be with them during these trying times."
The most recent killings are attributed to gangs that have grown more powerful since the assassination of President Jovenel Mose in July 2021.

Gambia Gets EU Backing For EUR-142m Solar Power Distribution Plan
The European Union and the World Bank will support a EUR-142-million (USD 161m) solar power generation and distribution project in Gambia, it was announced today.
National electricity utility NAWEC will implement said project by connecting to the grid a 20-MW solar power plant, to be built at Jambur near Banjul, and establishing a 400-km power transmission and distribution system. The scheme will see all 1,000 schools and 100 health centres in rural parts of Gambia secure reliable energy supply through new connections to the national energy network and off-grid solar and battery systems, a press release says.
The European Investment Bank will provide a 25-year concessional loan of EUR 65 million and a further EUR 41 million will come from the EU budget in the form of a grant. In turn, the World Bank will contribute EUR 35.7 million in financing.
Presently, less than half the population of Gambia has access to electricity, while in rural parts of the country the percentage is even lower -- 15%. Gambia's current total generation capacity amounts to 98 MW.

Today I'm sharing an outfit I wore in Philly to the John Legend concert we attended on our honeymoon - so there are some pretty special memories tied to this outfit! I found this skirt in an NYC H&M and knew it would be perfect for the concert and so fun as a vacation look. I've always had a somewhat photographic memory when it comes to clothes... My family has always laughed because I can usually remember exactly what I was wearing for all of these different events growing up (and sometimes even everyday things as a kid and teen).
This was the most incredible concert I've ever been to (and I've been to some pretty great ones). I already loved John Legend and a lot of his music, and knew he was insanely talented at both vocals and piano, but wow. The man gave a flawless performance. I walked down the aisle to 'All of Me' (I know it's cliche and overplayed now, but we both loved the song the week his album came out), so hearing him perform it on our honeymoon will always be a very special memory to me.
At the Mann Center for the Performing Arts in Philadelphia. Incredible venue!

Re: Songs of the WWI era
Entry #10 is among the most famous WWI songs, in this country at least: the 1918 Irving Berlin hit "Oh! How I Hate To Get Up in the Morning."
http://youtu.be/WA2v4P06OVc
One grows to appreciate Berlin's range as a songwriter: accompanied on concertina, this one could almost have come out of Colm O Lochlainn's "Irish Street Ballads." Details, as usual, are a click away:
http://www.concertina.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=17935&page=4#entry172380.
Near Philly
The eleventh song in this little anthology, "America, Here's My Boy," is a bit of pro-war propaganda from early 1917, which pointedly alludes to the 1915 anti-war classic "I Didn't Raise My Boy To Be a Soldier" (recorded earlier in the series):

Oh, I've heard worse songs.
Probably not all the way through. But I know I've heard them.
With entry #13 we return to some better-known repertoire, and to a timeless question, with "How Ya Gonna Keep 'Em Down on the Farm...?" (1919):
Further remarks are at:
More WWI-era concertinizing. Entry #14 is W.C. Handy's "Yellow Dog Blues" (1919):
http://youtu.be/eFm023F8I8k
First (and unsuccessfully) published in 1915 as the "Yellow Dog Rag," it marks the waning of one big popular craze and the advent of what would prove to be a much bigger (and longer-lived) one.

On his second day's leave, on his second day's leave, he'd every kind of sport you could conceive!
The man next door who always met him in town at the station
Had eaten pickled onions 'til his voice had inflammation
So Tommy put his gas-mask on to hear the conversation!
On his second day home on leave!
On his third day's leave, on his third day's leave, he'd every kind of sport you could conceive!
He started drinking whisky till it swelled his khaki figure
He even poured it down his gun and rammed it with his jigger
Then gave it to a man and said 'For God's sake pull the trigger!'
On his third day home on leave!
On his fourth.. etc.
The neighbours asked him how he got his wound at Chateau Gully
So he explained they always his the part exposed most fully
They all guessed where it was, 'cos he was stooping for his bully
On his fourth day home on leave!
On his fifth.. etc.
He wed his girl in church and then he took her to the racecourse
That night he kept his spurs on crying 'Tally-ho!' with great force
She said 'Am I your wife or do you think that I'm a racehorse?!'
On his fifth day home on leave!
On his sixth day's leave, on his sixth day's leave, they gave a little concert to relieve!
They sang 'The Death Of Nelson' and a song called 'Life Is Ending'
'The Collier's Dying Child' and 'Mother's Grave, Sweet Flowers We're Sending'
He said 'Is this a concert or an inquest I'm attending?!'
On his sixth day home on leave!
On his seventh day's leave, on his seventh day's leave, he'd every kind of sport you could conceive!
He couldn't find his trousers and the train, he daren't detain it
His wife said 'I know what to do!' and whispered to explain it
So he went back with silk stockings with suspenders and a bay'net!
On his seventh day's home on leave!

Aaaw, Theo! Just click the links … any of Bob's posts
Singing with Melodeon or any squeezebox isn't easy, as I've found out and many threads here have attested.
It would be a shame IMO to lock out something that offers success in this field of 'free reed' artistry
Quote from: Theo on October 11, 2015, 01:48:02 PM
It's a concertina thing (as explained in the original post), the teens of the last century being to my mind a sort of high-water mark for that instrument. The point is not just to recreate the old songs (as enjoyable as that is), but to do so while exploring the possibilities of free reed accompaniment, as it might have been used in that day.
I've only cross-posted here from www.concertina.net to encourage discussion (and maybe even participation) among members who might also be concertinists, period enthusiasts or both. If that initiative seems too remote from this forum's more proper concerns, then please feel free to delete the thread.

Here's one you might not have heard
Jack--
Many thanks for that; no, I've never heard it, in fact. Do you know of a period source and/or tune for it?
It's not lost on me that my own little repertoire of WWI songs draws heavily on home front material, as opposed to authentic soldiers' songs (though there are a few of the latter in the pipeline). Obviously the bellicose fantasies of Tin Pan Alley had nearly nothing to do with the experience of the men who fought. In fact much of the popular songs' poignancy, for me, derives from their cluelessness. But to my mind a song that actually came out of the trenches is worth fifty of the Tin Pan Alley sort.
Sorry should've said - the tune, chords, verse and first chorus are on the attached pdf file.
Got it; thanks! The tablet I'm using had balked at opening that file. But I'll check it out on the computer at the first opportunity.
The source btw was a published song sheet of the era, that I haven't seen. Alison and I did it a couple of times with a D/G.

This might be my favorite new thread (hell, they're all new to me). I am addicted to 1920s early jazz, dixieland and tin pan alley stuff. I listen to the 40s junction on satellite radio and it amazes me how so much of the big band stuff of the late 30s/early 40s was just amped up early 20th century stuff. I hear it and always think about how it would translate to the accordion. Definitely staying tuned on this one...

John Kirkpatrick's "Songs from the trenches" covers similar ground, with plentiful free reeds to accompany the singing, so may be of interest to those who're unfamiliar.

I definitely second the recommendation; it's a great record. A bit less "folk/trad" than his usual repertoire but maybe not so far from the music hall stuff that he did with Umps and Dumps, etc. Some very funny songs on this record, too.

Lillibulero (sp?) is a tune of the era (and probably older) and was sung to by the WWI soldiery,

Kligerman Rallies To Eighth-Place Finish At Martinsville
On an up-and-down day at Martinsville Speedway, Parker Kligerman found himself having to weave his Solid Rock Carriers/Advance Auto Parts/BTS Tire and Wheel Distributors/Goodyear Commercial Tire Network/Valvoline Ford F-150 through the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) field not once, but twice.
The Westport, Conn.-native and his Ricky Benton Racing (RBR) Enterprises team proved up to the challenge, surviving multiple late-race cautions and restarts to bring home an eighth-place finish in the Alpha Energy Solutions 250.
"We obviously didn't qualify as well as we had hoped," Kligerman said, " but we knew we had a good race truck and sure enough, just like Atlanta and Daytona, when the race started, we started mowing them down."
Kligerman started 25th after the team failed to move on past the first qualifying session. By the time the first caution flag flew on lap 41, the No. 92 Ford had moved into the front half of the field. By the race's midpoint, Kligerman was running in the top 10.
On lap 163, after working his way to the cusp of the top five, Kligerman made contact with the No. 11 of Ben Kennedy, sending both trucks spinning.
"I made a very unintelligent move on the 11...and that hurt us," he said. "We could have had a top five had I not done that.
"We recovered well - (crew chief) Mike (Hester) made a good call and the pit crew gave us some good stops - but I think I left something on the table."
After the ensuing caution, Kligerman restarted his Ford with fresh tires in the 22nd position. By the next caution seven laps later at lap 178, he had moved into 17th.
At lap 204, Kligerman had the RBR Ford back in the top 10.
The last 50 laps of the race were littered with caution flags, which limited Kligerman's ability to move his truck further through the field.
"The longer the run went, the better we got," he said. "We just started tight and couldn't get off the corner at the start at the runs. When it mattered more to have drive off, we could drive to them, which was cool.
"I wish we could have some long runs there to end it."
With the finish, Kligerman moves to second in the NCWTS standings after three races. He trails John Hunter Nemecheck, who finished second to Kyle Busch Saturday, by a mere three points. Kligerman and the RBR team have finishes of third, eighth and eighth this year.
"This is our third straight great performance as a team," said RBR owner Ricky Benton. "Parker drove another smart race, Mike (Hester) called a great race and the pit crew gave us some solid stops.
"I am very thankful for everyone who has supported us so far in 2016. We couldn't do it without Advance Auto Parts, BTS, Goodyear, Solid Rock Carriers or Valvoline and all of supporters back in Cerro Gordo (N.C.)."
RBR and Kligerman plan on returning to NCWTS action on May 6 at Kansas Speedway for the Toyota Tundra 250.

Excess bleeding, for example nose bleeds.
There are a number of different types of leukaemia of which acute lymphoblastic leukaemia is the most common. Leukaemia accounts for almost a third of all childhood cancers.
Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) occurs when an immature type of white blood cell (lymphoblasts) take over the bone marrow stopping normal cells from functioning.
ALL accounts for almost 80% of all childhood leukaemias with around 400 new cases every year in the UK.
It most commonly develops between 2 and 3 years of age and is slighly more common in boys than girls.
Maintenance therapy: this is an extended block of treatment to help prevent cancer from returning (relapse).
The total treatment duration for girst is 2 years, and for boys it is 3 years. This is because on average boys and girls respond in slightly different ways to treatment.
Survival rates of ALL are good at approximately 90% 5 year survival.
AML is caused by an overproduction of myeloblasts (a type of white blood cell) and accounts for 15% of childhood leukaemia.
Around 70 children are diagnosed with AML every year in the UK. The treatment for AML is shorter and more intensive than for ALL with the total duration of treatment is around 6 months. Children will usually be admitted to hospital for the full duration of their treatment.
A high proportion of children with AML will achieve remission but up to a quarter of these children will relapse (usually in the three years following treatment) so children with AML will be monitored closely after treatment ends.
CML is very rare in children, but if it occurs, it is treated using a stem cell transplant.
If you are reading this page, the likelihood is that your child, or a child close to you, has been diagnosed with cancer. If you have any further worries or queries, please discuss them with a member of your child's health care team.

The shape of things to come – Ed Sheeran hit with another copyright claim
Dawn Ellmore - Ed Sheeran
Has Ed Sheeran come unstuck with a new copyright claim over a song he co-wrote with country music legends Faith Hill and Tim McGraw?
Two Australian songwriters are hoping so, as they are suing the three artists over claims that the song The Rest of Our Life infringes on a song they own. The contested song is the title track of a duet album by Hill and McGraw.
'Blatant copying'
The claim was filed at the US District Court for the Southern District of New York on 10 January 2018. The claimants, Beau Golden and Sean Carey are suing over what they call the 'blatant copying' of their song, called Where I Found You.
As well as Ed Sheeran, Sony Music Entertainment and the song's co-writers were named as defendants in the claim. The claimants said: "The copying is, in many instances, verbatim, note-for-note copying of important and original elements of the song, and is obvious to the ordinary observer."
Claimant's song
The Australian duo added that the song is 'almost a note-for-note copy' of theirs and is a clear infringement of their copyright.
Songwriters Carey, Golden and a third, Jasmine Rae, wrote When I Found You in 2014 and it was released onto the market in 2015. Rae is not named as a plaintiff in the case. Since release, according to Golden and Carey, their song has had more than 150,000 streams on Spotify and more than 64,000 views on YouTube.
Further allegations
As well as the infringement, Golden and Carey further said that Sony knew that the song had been copied when they released The Rest Of Our Life, but didn't tell them or do anything to prevent it. They also took it even further, as the claim states that: "it very well may have been an agent of Sony Music Entertainment who provided the other defendants" with the song.
The plaintiffs also said that as Sheeran was 'touring extensively' in Australia when the song When I Found You was extensively played on the radio. They believe this could be another way that Sheeran gained access to their song in order to copy it.
The Australian duo are looking for at least $5 million as damages and injunctive relief. If this isn't appropriate, they are asking for damages and royalties to this amount.
Attorney for plaintiffs
Richard Busch, a partner at the firm of King & Ballow is acting as attorney for the plaintiffs. He has experience in taking copyright suits forward against Sheeran, having represented plaintiffs in an earlier case over the song Photograph.
This earlier copyright infringement claim sought $20 million damages on the basis that Photograph had very similar musical elements to a track previously performed by 2010's UK X Factor winner Matt Cardle in 2011. While the claim was dismissed last April (2017), the plaintiffs were added onto the records as co-writers of Photograph, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Busch insists that copyright cases are only filed after a great deal of investigation. He said: "We do not take the filing of a lawsuit lightly. We plead the facts specifically with enormous detail in the complaint, including, in cases like this, transcriptions to show the musical similarities.

The Porsche from California was the star guest at the special exhibition "60 Years of Porsche Club" from 26th May until 26th August 2012. Bud Kibbee, the 86-year old proud owner of this exceptional treasure, travelled especially to the opening together with his wife, Joanne. The couple were part of a group of invited members of the Porsche Club of America (PCA), who were given the opportunity to spend a week in Germany and experience a wonderfully varied Porsche program.
The 911 T held the fort in the Porsche Museum. For Mr. Kibbee, it was a matter of honour to make the valuable collector's item available for the Anniversary Exhibition of the Porsche Clubs. It's much more than just an exhibition piece. The 911 T, equipped with a 2.4 litre Boxer engine with 140 HP -is course ready for the road. In fact, it is raring to go!

New Boeing chief executive: planemaker can be 'much better'
Business Reuters Jan 14, 2020 00:07:16 IST
By David Shepardson
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Boeing Co's new chief executive, David Calhoun, assumed the job on Monday as the U.S. planemaker battles to recover from two fatal crashes of 737 MAX planes that killed 346 people in five months and led to the model's worldwide grounding in March.
Calhoun, 62, a longtime Boeing director named chairman in October after the board stripped Dennis Muilenburg of the title, was named chief executive on Dec. 23 following the board's firing of Muilenburg amid growing concerns about the company's relationship with regulators and its handling of the MAX.
Boeing has estimated costs of the MAX grounding at more than $9 billion to date and is expected to disclose significant additional costs during its fourth-quarter earnings release on Jan. 29. Boeing faces rising costs from halting production of the MAX this month, compensating airlines for lost flights and assisting its supply chain. It is also considering raising more debt.
Calhoun, a former executive at Blackstone private equity group and experienced corporate crisis manager, is already working to repair the company's relationships with regulators, airlines and lawmakers. He previously headed a General Electric Co division that included airplane engines.
Calhoun told employees in an email on Monday he sees "opportunities to be better. Much better. That includes engaging one another and our stakeholders with greater transparency, holding ourselves accountable to the highest standards of safety and quality, and incorporating outside-in perspective on what we do and how we do it."
Last week, the board and its interim CEO reversed course and recommended regulators require simulator training for pilots before they resume flying the MAX. Directors also authorized the release of more than 100 pages of damaging internal messages that disclosed company efforts to avoid costly simulator training for the MAX amid troubling questions about its culture.
In one email, an employee said the 737 MAX was "designed by clowns who in turn are supervised by monkeys."A source close to Calhoun said on Sunday it was important employees saw the emails, which Boeing last week described as "completely unacceptable."
Calhoun wants to "get rid of the culture of arrogance" at Boeing that led to the messages written by a small number of employees, the source said. Calhoun said in his Monday email the company "will foster an inclusive environment that embraces oversight and accountability and puts safety, quality and integrity above all else."
U.S. Representative Peter DeFazio, who chairs the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, told reporters on Friday he advised Calhoun in a conversation he needs "to do something to relieve the pressure from Wall Street on your organization, which ultimately drove all this."
Richard Aboulafia, vice president of analysis at the Teal Group, said in an essay for Leeham News that Calhoun must decide "either to be a fantastic nine-month CEO, or he will stay on, becoming a potentially disastrous multi-year CEO." He argues "Boeing needs a CEO with an understanding of aviation markets, program management, and most of all, engineering."Calhoun will be at Boeing's Chicago headquarters and its facilities in Washington state this week, the source said, so that the new CEO can speak with lots of employees.
On Friday, the board approved a $1.4 million annual salary for Calhoun and long-term compensation of $26.5 million if he achieves several milestones, including the return to service of the 737 MAX.
Reuters has reported the Federal Aviation Administration is not expected to approve the MAX's return to service until at least February and potentially March or later. U.S. airlines have canceled MAX flights into early April or later.

Worldwide, predators and humans are in conflict for resources such as game species or livestock, especially in the case of wild canids. One non-lethal method to reduce predation is conditioned food aversion (CFA), in which animals learn to avoid a food due to the illness after ingestion, caused by the addition of an undetected chemical compound. CFA can be enhanced by adding an artificial odour cue, in a process known as taste-potentiated odour aversion (TPOA). We tested CFA and TPOA with three experimental groups of penned dogs. Food was offered with a combination of microencapsulated levamisole + vanilla odour (ODO), microencapsulated levamisole (LEV), or plain food as a control. The aims were (a) to test whether dogs detected the microencapsulated levamisole, (b) to analyse the strength and extinction time of CFA induced by microencapsulated levamisole, and (c) to analyse the strength and extinction time of TPOA. Two-choice tests were carried out during 11 post-conditioning months, and two reinforcements with microencapsulated levamisole were performed during the first post-conditioning month. In the first post-conditioning test, ODO and LEV groups ate significantly less untreated food than control group. After reinforcement, the dogs in LEV group resumed eating the food. Three of four dogs in ODO group showed long-lasting CFA until the 11th month. These results show that TPOA could be used to induce odour aversion on canids and that the odour cue overshadows the slight bitter taste of microencapsulated levamisole. These results show TPOA as a promising tool to reduce predation by wild canids.

I had never heard of Viola Beach before today. They were an indie-pop band from Warrington, United Kingdom. The entire band, consisting of Kris Leonard, 20, River Reeves, 19, Jack Dakin, 19, Tomas Lowe, 27, and their manager Craig Tarry, 33, died after their car plummeted 80 feet off a highway bridge in the early hours of Saturday in Sodertalje near Stockholm, Sweden.
The band has got a great sound and cool tunes. It is truly a sad thing for their music to gain such widespread recognition from such tragedy. Rest in peace.
Some details from Daily Mail.


Why Are So Many People Moving To Denver, Colorado?
People that enjoy skiing love living in Denver; there are a lot of ski resorts and mountains that are nearby. It's also a wonderful place for people that are fans of camping. When you're in this area, you'll be able to go camping as much as you like.


Woohoo! Let's talk about cleaning house. I have been wanting to share some all natural home cleaning recipes with you for a while now, but have just been scooting my way around it because, well, life happens. It's one of those simple types of posts that gets pushed to the wayside. You know what I'm talking about? This cleanser is pretty much the easiest DIY on this entire blog; it requires no heat, melting, cutting, stitching, etc. Just a few simple measurements and a shake.
A few weeks ago, I wrote about preparing your chicken coop for cooler weather. It's officially time for me to look into doing this myself. The roosts are looking a bit caked and gross, the nesting boxes are being used and someone (ahem, Olive) likes to sleep in the very top left box and poo in it all night long. It's lovely. I keep trying to get her to sleep with the other ladies, but she just will not listen! Apparently they also don't like her very much, and I have to say, even though she bugs the crap out of me... she did the cutest thing the other day. Since the weather is much cooler, I have been outside much longer through the morning. I don't usually let the flock out to free range in the mornings or early afternoons because it's full sun, hot, and there aren't many shady places for them to escape to other than the coop. And they actually prefer to stay in there for most of the afternoon anyway. I am planning to have a shady vine grow over their run next year!
Anyway, as I was working the garden, I was walking through the yard to place a basket of greens and herbs on the porch to be taken inside. Olive noticed me carrying something interesting, so followed all the way to the porch. I set the basket down and headed towards the coop to grab something, and she followed close behind as I did that as well. She followed me everywhere for the entire time I was outside, and I just felt this odd sense of pride and curiosity. I had heard of being followed by chickens, but it hadn't happened for me yet, and I was really excited! Of course, I tried to play it cool and act like nothing had happened. I am hoping to try this again soon.
How easy is that?! You can use this for countertops, windows, floors, or whatever else you think needs a good wipe down! We use vinegar to clean everything. And it stinks. We discovered the trick of adding essential oils to our cleansers not only for the benefits of being used as a disinfectant but it also kind of neutralizes that heavy vinegar scent. I also kind of associate it with being clean, though, so it's not too bad! Plus, that smell can be such a positive mood booster!
I now only use vinegar, no water! It works really well, and you do not have to worry about bacteria from the water. I have read that using straight vinegar on wood floors can strip the finish after a while. This is more for countertops and other metallic surfaces like a faucet or sink!
To make this cleaner, combine all ingredients inside a 16 oz bottle and shake well. Spray and wipe away like you would with any other commercial spray cleanser. It's so much safer than anything you could use from the store, so don't be weary. This recipe works really well for countertops and can even be used to clean your shower. I love it! If you'd like your cleanser to last a little longer, try using a glass amber bottle to store it. Amber helps keep light from penetrating the mixture inside so that it may last a little longer. I would keep an eye on your cleanser though since it does contain water. Water can make things go bad more quickly! Keep this in a dark place, like a pantry or linen closet, until your next use.
Now go clean your coop out! This cool autumn weather has me in the mood to scrub everything down and turn a new leaf for winter.

Scoreboard Soccer: Creating the Environment to Develop Young Players
David Baird (Author) Kevin Keegan (Contributor)
PRE-ORDER released 28 January 2022
Foreword by Kevin Keegan. Scoreboard Soccer develops players through play and praise. The Scoreboard Soccer concepts derives from the belief that the environment created for players will influence the behaviors they will practice and refine over time. This book presents the fun, inclusive, and nurturing environments which can be used to develop young players' skills. When participating in a Scoreboard Soccer game, players will work in an environment that creates realistic game situations, practicing opposition, change of direction, and transition. In these situations, the players will work on those skills coaches wish to develop in young players: passing, dribbling, shooting, and tackling. What sets the Scoreboard Soccer concept apart from traditional training methods is the added incentive for players to demonstrate these positive behaviors: the scoreboard. Using the scoreboard gives each practice a fun challenge that runs parallel to learning the tactics and techniques. It can be used to encourage and reward player effort and involvement within the game. In addition to the Scoreboard Soccer concept, coaching, and content is a complete Scoreboard Soccer curriculum which can be used as a longer-term development plan. 144 photos and illustrations

One of the most highly regarded materials for floor and wall coverings, marble is a highly sought-after choice for adding a touch of luxury to a bathroom, living room, hall or even an entire home.
Because marble tiles contain so much variation in shade, vein and pattern, they provide the perfect way to create interest in a wall, floor or feature surface while maintaining a subtle and sophisticated style.
At Beaumont Tiles, you'll find an incredible range of marble tiles and marble look tiles in patterns and formats including herringbone, penny round and even extra-large slab tiles!
Our range includes Carrara, Calacatta, Emperador, Crema Marfil and Nero Marquina marble tiles.
Marble tiles are perfect for main floors, especially living rooms, hallways and any larger space where you have room to show off the incredible natural veining of this exquisite material. Plus, we have marble mosaics and decorative tiles that are ideal for features like kitchen splashbacks.
For the luxurious style and feel of natural marble, but with all benefits of durable, easy to clean and cost-effective porcelain tiles, marble look tiles are a great option.
Printed in ultra-high resolution, marble look porcelain tiles replicate the look of natural marble so well it's almost impossible to tell the difference. All our marble look tiles even feature a range of different faces to capture the natural variation of the real thing.
The only difference you'll notice is how hard-wearing and easy to keep clean these marble look tiles are.
For a classic touch of opulence, nothing beats the pure luxury of white marble tiles. Providing the perfect canvas for a luxury bathroom, kitchen or living area, these delicately veined tiles suit both modern and traditional styles.
At Beaumont Tiles you'll find a great range of white marble tiles like Carrara and Calacutta in all sizes and formats from penny rounds to slabs. Natural marble is always the most luxurious choice, but you can also get the look for less (and less upkeep!) with marble-look porcelain tiles.
For an impressively luxurious style that is somehow both imposing and welcoming, thanks to the natural variation and veining, black marble tiles are a look unto themselves. The perfect contrast to white, black marble tiles add a tremendous depth to any space and can create a phenomenal feature.


Former Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser was quoted today as saying he had been drugged and robbed of his passport, wallet, suitcase and trousers in a motel in Memphis, Tenn.
He was responding to a U.S. report that said Fraser, prime minister from 1972 to 1983, had appeared in the lobby of the Admiral Benbow Inn wearing only a shirt, tie and a towel wrapped around his waist.
The Memphis Commercial Appeal said Fraser borrowed a pair of pants from a bellman before departing in a taxi.
Memphis police said they had no report of the incident.
The Sydney Morning Herald today quoted Fraser in an interview from his farm near Melbourne as saying the incident occurred Oct. 14 after he had made a speech to the Economic Club of Memphis on "Can the Western Alliance Maintain Peace?"
Fraser told the Sydney newspaper he could not remember the events of the night in detail. He said he went to another hotel, the Peabody, after the Economic Club dinner ended at about 9 p.m. and could remember little more.
"There's nothing I can say," he said. "I had no sense of balance that day, which I had never experienced before."
He told the newspaper that "everything after the Peabody is a blank," and that he was drugged and robbed. Fraser did not elaborate.
"I spoke to a friend of mine in New York. He said it happens all the time. But it always happens to someone else. When it happens to you, it's not very pleasant," Fraser said.
"I wish I'd never heard of bloody Memphis," he added.
A wealthy sheep farmer and fiscal conservative, the tall, rangy Fraser grappled throughout his two terms as prime minister with unyielding economic problems. His successor, Bob Hawke, accused him of pursuing "totally irresponsible policies" and said, "We inherited a mess."
During Fraser's first term, he designated "Waltzing Matilda" as Australia's national anthem--with one exception. "God Save the Queen" was reserved for royal occasions.

It doesn't look like A.I. is heading back to the NBA anytime soon, but his original Reebok signature shoe is due back for another round in March.
Taking us back to Allen Iverson's college days, this Reebok Question is styled in Georgetown Hoyas colors, including a grey leather upper with navy hits on the toebox, inner lining and heel. White fills in the tongue laces and midsole, which sits atop a navy rubber outsole.
Official drop date is March 8, but RMKStore is offering a run now.
