She was also caught on camera cheering, "Let's go baby."
Tom Brady and the New England Patriots broke several records on Sunday, and became the first NFL team to win a championship in overtime with the biggest comeback in Super Bowl history.
And it was arguably Brady's wife, Gisele Bündchen, who had the most emphatic reaction to the Patriots' nailbiting, surprise win. The supermodel — and Vogue's favourite WAG — whipped out her phone to celebrate the gamewinning touchdown and scream up a storm.
Shaking her head from side-to-side, Bündchen made sure to get most of her viewing party in the shot before she excitedly dropped her phone when she tried to put it away in her back pocket.
Bündchen's joyous response came after Brady and his team mastered a 25-point deficit to defeat the Atlanta Falcons 34-28 in overtime. She was also caught on camera cheering, "Let's go baby."
Still, she did not let her fallen phone interfere with her family's Super Bowl celebrations. Bündchen, was photographed kissing Brady on the field after the game, as her husband held their daughter Vivian in their arms. Brady's mother Galynn, who has been battling an illness for 18 months, was next to them for that memorable moment, in her first game appearance of the season.
But Bündchen's support for her husband is not limited to triumphant wins.
Back in 2012, she was videotaped talking back to a fan after the Patriots fell to the New York Giants in the Super Bowl. Then, she said, "You (have) to catch the ball when you're supposed to catch the ball," before adding, "My husband cannot (bleeping) throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time."
Something tells us her knowledge of the game's difficulty makes this win even sweeter for her and her family.

Dubai to offer flying taxi service using autonomous drones?
Jeff Glucker February 17, 2017 Comment Now!
Testing is already underway in Dubai on a new means of zipping through a crowded city. It involves an autonomous drone capable of carrying a passenger... and some brave test subjects.
Dubai's Roads and Transportation Authority has been examining the drones and provided a demonstration of the capability during a recent three-day summit attended by world leaders.
The plan is to have these single-occupant, fully-automated drones up and running by the middle of this year. The drone being used is one built by Chinese firm Ehang. It's called the 184 and was presented at the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show. The drone has also been tested in Nevada and, though it doesn't appear to have a massive range or cargo capacity, it is apparently ready to go.
Initial testing by Ehang of the 184 saw range figures of 2.2 miles. That could be useful in a dense city like Dubai, especially for emergency situations, but would struggle to find a foothold in other more spread out metro regions. Still, the fact that we're even talking about the testing of an autonomous passenger drone taxi is a reminder that there's some seriously cool technology out there in the world.
It won't be long before we're complaining about the sky traffic as if we were background characters in "The Fifth Element." We will also lament for "the good old days" when we used to pilot our flying cars all on our own.

Félix Fernández Murga, nació en Oyón (Álava) el 2 de mayo de 1915. Murió en Vitoria el 23 de septiembre de 2003.

Se licenció en filología clásica en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid el año 1943. Se doctoró en la misma Universidad el año 1962. Su tesis versó sobre "Los ingenieros españoles Roque Joaquín de Alcubierre y Francisco Lavega, descubridores de Herculano, Pompeya y Estabia" y obtuvo el Premio Extraordinario Nacional del doctorado en Letras.

Tras desempeñar durante seis años el cargo de profesor interino de Latín en el Instituto Ramiro de Maeztu, se trasladó a Italia en febrero de 1949.

Allí fue Lector de Español en Nápoles (Universidad e Instituto Universitario Oriental) durante diecisiete años, desde 1949 hasta 1965 y Director del Instituto Cultural Español de Santiago en la misma ciudad, desde su fundación el 8 de diciembre de 1951 hasta el 31 de diciembre de 1965.

En Nápoles fue miembro de la Societá napoletana di storia patria y de la Associazione napoletana pro i monumenti e il paesaggio. Por su labor en el campo de las relaciones culturales entre España e Italia el Gobierno español le concedió la Encomienda de Isabel la Católica y la Encomienda de número de la Orden del Mérito Civil.

Fue catedrático de Lengua y Literatura italianas en el Instituto "Saavedra Fajardo" de Murcia, "Núñez de Arce" de Valladolid y "Beatriz Galindo" de Madrid. Al igual que otros destacados miembros de su generación, ejerció primero en Institutos de enseñanzas medias antes de ocupar la Cátedra de Lengua y Literatura Italianas en la universidad de Salamanca.

Con motivo de su jubilación, le concedieron la "Medalla de oro" de la Universidad de Salamanca en 1986.

En sus años italianos se dedicó con entusiasmo a la divulgación de la lengua, la literatura y la cultura española desde el Instituto Italiano de Cultura y en las aulas de la Universidad napolitana y del Instituto Oriental y a la investigación de la huella española en Italia.

Ya en España contribuyó desde las aulas, mediante conferencias, publicaciones y otras actividades  a promocionar el interés por la lengua y la cultura italiana dentro y fuera del ámbito universitario.

La mayor parte de sus publicaciones y conferencias se centran en el estudio de las relaciones histórico-culturales entre España e Italia y en el estudio constructivo de la morfosintaxis italiana y española.

En 1980 recibió el premio "Fray Luis de León" en la modalidad de Lenguas Románicas por su traducción al español de la Historia de Florencia de Nicolás Maquiavelo.

On behalf of Dusek Law posted in blog on Tuesday, March 27, 2018.
Money is a strong driving force for many crimes. Though it may be nonviolent, fraud can leave some people in a very vulnerable place, which is why it is a criminal offense.
It is important for someone who faces criminal charges for fraud to learn what the charge entails. Here are a few important aspects to be aware of.
Along with the different ways to commit bank fraud, there are a variety of people who may face the charges. Employees who encounter money due to their positions, such as bank tellers, cashiers, accountants and loan officers may commit bank fraud, as well as other high profile professionals, including currency traders, business executives and company owners. With the continued advancements of the internet, there is also a digital element that encompasses another full gamut of potential people who may commit fraud.
During the trial process, the prosecution will present evidence to try to prove that the defendant knowingly and willingly performed acts that resulted in bank fraud. It is up to the defendant to provide evidence to prove otherwise or cast doubt on the prosecution's argument. If the defendant is able to do either successfully, it may be possible to get the case dismissed. If not, he or she may receive a conviction that can include fines as much as $1,000,000 and up to 30 years in jail.
Because the stakes are so high, it is a good idea for anyone who may face fraud charges to seek the advice of an attorney who has extensive knowledge and experience providing representation in white-collar criminal defense cases.

Jazz Arts Advancement Program
An integrated and innovative new educational format that focuses on three distinct and critical areas of jazz music: performance, composition and pedagogy.
Program Philosophy
The potential of jazz music in America is diverse and limitless, but only if conceived as a world of beauty, power, expression, and imagination in which all members of society can participate. The need exists for a new example of music instruction in our country, a model for performing artists of the future who will understand the centrality of their roles. Not only will they be able to teach the next generation of professional musicians, but they will also be able to broaden the artistic involvement of all Americans.
As jazz music continues to work its way into the mainstream of the American education system, new and innovative methods need to be formulated to assure the perpetuation and development of this important art form. The Manhattan School of Music philosophy is that this is best done at the actual point where knowledge is transferred, at the level of the educator.
Having created a program that attracts top musical talent, Manhattan School of Music trains Doctor of Musical Arts candidates through an integrated and innovative new educational format that focuses on three distinct and critical areas of jazz music: performance, composition and pedagogy. This three-fold educational concept enables a student to develop as "The Complete Artist Musician" — one who excels equally as a performer, composer, arranger, teacher, conductor of workshops and clinics, and lecturer. This new and distinctive concept in music education is the central philosophy of the Manhattan School of Music Doctoral Jazz Arts Advancement Program.
The program of study leading to the Manhattan School of Music doctor of musical arts degree is offered with a major in Jazz Arts Advancement. A minimum of 60 credits in approved graduate courses is required; the curriculum is designed to prepare the candidate for a performing and composing career as well as for teaching at both secondary and college levels. Students will, therefore, be expected to demonstrate strong academic capabilities in addition to a high level of achievement in performance and composition. All major lessons will be with a member of Manhattan School of Music's jazz composition faculty. Composers interested in the program must also be able to perform at a professional level in the jazz aesthetic. Applicants must hold a Master's degree (or the equivalent).
Students must be in residence at the School for a minimum of two years.
All course work and performance requirements must be completed within seven years of the date of matriculation. A one year leave of absence may be taken for medical or professional reasons.
Students may transfer a maximum of nine graduate credits earned at another institution with a grade A or B; no applied credits (i.e., private lessons) may be transferred.
Admission to the doctor of musical arts degree program is based on an audition before the faculty of the candidate's major department; the results of a three hour written examination in jazz history, theory, and improvisation; and a personal interview with the doctoral committee. Students for whom English is not the native language are required to take the standardized TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) and achieve a score of at least 100 iBT.
Visit the Doctoral Jazz Arts Advancement Audition/Procedures page for more information about prescreening and audition repertoire.
For further information about admission to Manhattan School of Music, visit our How to Apply page.
Scholarships are awarded to full-time students on the basis of audition, financial need, and academic achievement as demonstrated on the entrance examinations in jazz music history and theory.
Students admitted to the program must consult with the Associate Dean of the Jazz Arts Program each semester prior to registration. The Associate Dean, in consultation with the doctoral committee, administers all matters of curriculum, document topics, examinations, and applications for graduation. All inquiries, forms, and petitions should be forwarded to the doctoral studies department.

Clemens and his son Koby are joining the Kansas Stars, a team of 24 former MLB players set to play in the National Baseball Congress World Series.
The tournament, whch opens with three games of pool play to narrow the field, features mostly college baseball summer teams.
This year it's also going to include one of the best pitchers of all time and a host of guys who were pretty darn good in their own right. Guys like Roy Oswalt, J.D. Drew, Rick Ankiel, Tim Hudson, Josh Beckett and Dan Uggla.
One of the organizers (and a team member) is Adam LaRoche, who famously walked away from baseball in March over a dispute with the Chicago White Sox about his son's access at the ballpark.
We can't wait to see how they do.

Edith Södergran (San Petersburgo, 4 de abril de 1892 - Raivola, 24 de junio de 1923), poeta (que no poetisa) fino-sueca, pionera de la poesía en sueco en Finlandia. Su impacto en la poesía nórdica, especialmente en el modernismo finlandés de los años veinte, fue significativo en lo que se refiere a la liberación del verso de los confines de la rima, el ritmo regular y la imaginería tradicional. Como modernizadora de la poesía, sólo Katri Vala puede ser comparada con Edith Södergran, una de las poetas nórdicas más queridas.

Biografía

Edith Irene Södergran nació en San Petersburgo el 4 de abril de 1892, en una familia burguesa de habla sueca. Su padre, Matts Södergran, trabajaba en una compañía de Alfred Nobel, siendo contratado posteriormente en una fábrica en Raivola como mecánico, a pesar de tener la responsabilidad de un ingeniero. En 1890 se casó con Helena Lovisa Holmroos, cuyo padre había tenido una exitosa carrera en el negocio de la fundicíón.

En 1902, Södergran ingresó en la Petri-Schule alemana en San Petersburgo. Influenciada por Heinrich Heine y Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, escribió sus primeros poemas en alemán, cambiando posteriormente al sueco. No obstante, los germanismos se convirtieron en una constante en su lenguaje. Durante aquella época criticó en sus escritos, entre otras cosas, el sistema zarista, sin tomar ninguna postura política clara. Su padre, que tenía tuberculosis, volvió a casa en 1907, tras una estancia en un hospital de Nummela. Los temas relacionados con la muerte, muy populares entre los decadentes, empezaron a aparecer en su poesía.

Södergran contrajo la misma enfermedad que su padre, siendo tratada en Nummela en 1909. Desde 1911 hasta 1914 vivió principalmente en hospitales en Suiza, donde empezó a estudiar sobre Italia y a leer a Dante. En 1914 regresó a Finlandia, llena de esperanzas con respecto a su futuro. Al año siguiente, conoció en Helsinki al escritor Arvid Mörne (1876-1946), que la animó a seguir escribiendo. Se cree que un encuentro casual con el filólogo Hugo Bergroth (1866-1937) fue el motivo por el que dejó de escribir en alemán, pasando al sueco. El expresionismo alemán de la pre-guerra la interesó sobremanera, de igual forma que el futurismo ruso de Vladimir Majakovski.

Poco antes de la Primera Guerra Mundial se instaló con su madre en la casa de verano en Raivola. Su primer libro, Dikter (1916), representaba la naturaleza de su pueblo natal como si de un sueño se tratara. En un poema amoroso (Hacia el atardecer refresca el día..., parte VI) escribió: "Buscabas una flor / y encontraste un fruto. / Buscabas una fuente / y encontraste un mar." Este libro representó una nueva voz en la literatura de aquel entonces, pero no causó demasiado debate, siendo recibido en algunos casos con admiración desconcertada y en otros como si se tratase de algo ridículo, hiriéndola profundamente. Södergran dejó de intentar entrar en los círculos literarios sueco-fineses de Helsinki en un vuelo a Raivola.

Su familia perdió sus posesiones en la Revolución rusa de 1917, motivo por el cual Edith sufrió de depresión y extrema pobreza, pero a pesar de la inseguridad y las duras condiciones de vida en las que se encontraba, escribió Septemberlyran (1918), cuya publicación dio pie a un debate sobre su posible locura. Este libro reflejaba fuertes visiones Nieztscheanas y euforia dionisiaca, pues lo que ella quería mostrar era que ni la guerra civil finlandesa, ni la sangrienta Revolución rusa, ni la tuberculosis ni mucho menos las críticas la harían dejar de escribir poesía.
Su obra no tuvo una gran aceptación en vida; no obstante, le abrió las puertas al mundillo de la literatura. En una visita a Helsinki en el otoño de 1917, conoció a numerosos escritores, a saber: Hans Ruin, Jarl Hemmer, Runar Schildt, Juhani Aho, y Eino Leino. Pero la más importante en su vida fue la crítica y escritora Hagar Olsson, que reseñó con gran entusiasmo el Septemberlyran. Olsson fue a Raivola a visitarla, y ambas mantuvieron una intensa correspondencia.

Los mejores libros posteriores de Södergran incluyen Rosenaltaret (1919, El altar de las rosas) y Framtidens Skugga (1920, Sombra del futuro). Dejó atrás su visión nietzscheana de la vida, aceptando el confort de la religión (del que Nietzsche renegaba). A principios de los años veinte se hizo miembro de la Sociedad de Antropología, dejando de escribir poesía durante un tiempo. Su último libro, Landet som icke är, fue la preparación de Södergran para la muerte; fue publicado póstumamente en 1925. Los poemas resignados, que buscaban en el país que no existe, fueron recopilados y publicados por el poeta Elmer Diktonius.

Edith Södergran murió en Raivola el 24 de junio de 1923. Raivola se convertiría pocos años después en un lugar de perenigraje para los seguidores de Södergran.

With immediate effect, Case IH is launching an additional information channel specifically for users of tablet computers. The new app gives convenient and user-friendly access from an iPad to all the key data on the portfolio of tractor and harvesting technology available from Case IH. Alongside technical information, such as performance figures and vehicle specifications, the app provides an extensive further insight into the range by way of pictures and videos.
The app opens with a 3D wheel that enables the user to select an individual model. More detailed information is accessed via a series of images and "hot spots" – information trigger points with descriptions and close-up pictures. In the full screen mode, the brochures, magazines, images and videos provided by the app can be conveniently viewed on the iPad. A useful compare function allows users to evaluate two different Case IH models side by side and undertake a direct comparison of their key data.
The wealth of information delivered by the new Case IH app is intended not only for end cus-tomers. A password-protected area gives Case IH dealers access to special information for their eyes only. Every member of the European sales force now has all the relevant documents available digitally at their fingertips.
The Agritechnica fair coincides with the launch of the app in the Apple App Store. It can be downloaded for free in various European languages under the search term 'Case IH Europe'. A Windows 8 tablet version of the app is to be made available in 2014.

Outbreak of COVID-19 – an urgent need for good science to silence our fears?

In the first two decades of the 21st century, we saw coronaviruses emerge across Asia, East and West. In 2002/3, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) infected 238 and killed 33 in Singapore, including healthcare workers.(1) Ten years after that, the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS or nCoV-2012) emerged in the Middle East and continues to appear with sporadic cases and localised outbreaks, including one in Korea.(2) Both these coronaviruses, thought to originate from bats, spilled over to civet cats and camels, respectively, and have caused significant human morbidity and mortality. While other human coronaviruses (HCoV) such as HCoV-NL63, HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43 and HKU1 typically cause mild upper respiratory tract infections in immunocompetent patients, they can lead to pneumonia or cause exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or chronic heart failure, especially in older adults or the immunocompromised.(3) Animals are also not spared: swine acute diarrhoea syndrome coronavirus (i.e. SADS-CoV) and porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus (i.e. PEDV) have caused significant losses to the livestock industry in recent years.(3)
It is thus not unexpected that a novel coronavirus made its appearance at the end of 2019. These RNA viruses with crown-like spikes on its envelope have been predicted to be emerging pathogens with outbreak potential because of their inherent propensity for rapid mutation and recombination due to their large genomes. Towards the end of December 2019, the health commission of Wuhan in Hubei province, central China, declared an outbreak of clusters of pneumonia in people, many of whom had visited the local seafood wholesale market in Wuhan. Within days, genome sequencing had indicated that this disease (now officially called COVID-19, or coronavirus disease 2019) was caused by a novel coronavirus (named SARS CoV-2 by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses) that was closely related to a SARS-like coronavirus in bats with an extraordinarily high (96%) identity.(4) This work was done at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China, which had done a lot of research on bat coronaviruses.(5) Infected patients mostly presented with fever, cough and dyspnoea within 7‒14 days of exposure to the infection; few had upper respiratory signs such as rhinorrhoea or gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhoea. Around a quarter of those affected, mostly the elderly with comorbidities, required intensive care support for acute respiratory distress syndrome, multiorgan failure or co-infections.(6,7) The case fatality rate in the first published report of 99 cases from Wuhan was 11%,(7) while in contrast, the first comparable case series of patients with SARS from Hong Kong had a case fatality rate of only 2%. It is clearly too early to make comparisons between the two diseases in terms of case fatality. Differences in healthcare resources between the two cities may have had an impact on the outcomes.
Travel within the global village, compounded by the peak of the Lunar New Year season, rapidly introduced COVID-19 to other Chinese provinces as well as to the rest of the world. While the majority of these cases initially had a positive travel history to Wuhan, or contact with an individual with confirmed COVID-19, there was clear evidence of nosocomial spread in healthcare workers in Wuhan and elsewhere,(8) familial clustering outside Wuhan,(9) and local transmission in other countries in individuals who had not travelled to China. The reproductive number, R0, was estimated to be 2.2 (95% confidence interval 1.4‒3.9), which meant that every individual who was taken ill could potentially transmit the infection to two or three more people.(10) Following the exponential increase in cases, both in China and exported, and the death toll, the World Health Organization declared this an international public health emergency on 30 January 2020. As the epidemic spread beyond China, predictable events in other countries, such as the first local transmissions and the first fatality, followed weeks behind their first occurrence in China.
The indelible experiences of SARS and MERS, as well as concerns about avian and pandemic influenza, have fuelled pandemic preparedness efforts globally. Inevitably, imported cases of COVID-19 have reached the shores of Singapore and local transmission of COVID-19 has occurred. Fig. 1 illustrates a timeline of events since the outbreak began in China, globally and in Singapore. Singapore has adopted a proactive and multipronged approach, including broad entry restrictions for travellers from the entire mainland China; temperature screening at land, air and sea checkpoints; mandatory leave of absence for travellers within 14 days of their return from China; quarantine of contacts or those deemed to be in the incubation period; and public education on hand hygiene. The National Infection Prevention and Control Committee, National Public Health Laboratory, Ministry of Health Singapore and the brand-new, state-of-the-art National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID) provide the scientific expertise to support policy decisions. We have learnt some lessons from SARS, such as efficient contact tracing efforts and prompt use of isolation and quarantine; this time, we had a diagnostic test even before the first cases reached Singapore, unlike during the SARS outbreak where we had to wait for weeks.
Diagram shows the timeline of events in China, in Singapore and globally. COVID-19: coronavirus disease 2019; WHO: World Health Organization
There is, however, the danger of 'fighting the last war', as there do appear to be differences between this virus and SARS. Foremost among these is the probable transmission from individuals before the onset of symptoms or very early on with minimal symptoms, according to reports from China and Germany. This is unlike SARS, which was most infectious when patients were critically ill in hospital.(9,11) This makes COVID-19 much more difficult to control, as it is more similar to influenza than SARS. It also reduces the impact of temperature screening and highlights the critical need for accurate contact tracing starting from the day before the onset of symptoms (similar to chickenpox), as well as strict quarantine measures and monitoring, before more chains of contagion are established.
Although more publications are emerging that describe the clinical and virologic features of this outbreak, we still have many unanswered questions. We need to understand the source of this virus, especially identifying the putative animal host that would define it as a zoonosis. At the same time, case definitions may need constant refining as more is revealed about the epidemiologic characteristics and transmission dynamics. The relative contributions of 'super-spreaders' and pre-symptomatic spreaders also need to be better defined. Unlike during the SARS outbreak, Singapore now has a number of biosafety level 3 laboratories, including the one where scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School, SingHealth Duke-NUS Academic Medical Centre, Singapore General Hospital, NCID and Ministry of Health were able to culture COVID-19, making the virus available to researchers working on diagnostic tools and the development of effective vaccines and antiviral drugs. Outside Singapore, testing of antiviral agents such as ribavirin, remdesivir and lopinavir-ritonavir is already underway. In Singapore, we have also started treating some infected patients with lopinavir-ritonavir. Hopefully, this treatment will be validated in future clinical trials involving Singapore centres. While these are all positive steps, the epidemic of fear, perhaps partly fuelled by the drastic and unprecedented actions taken at the epicentre of the contagion, have led to high levels of anxiety among the public. The economic losses through disruption of travel and trade are already considerable, and the impact on a highly connected city such as Singapore is likely to be significant. The mobilisation of the community in Singapore during the SARS outbreak was a success; hopefully, that can be reproduced during this outbreak.
A global and concerted effort is required to break the chains of transmission of COVID-19. In a world with significant changes in climate, commerce and ecology as well as the proliferation of biomedical research in new settings, there is a constant risk of new diseases emerging. Despite this, the entire medical system seems to be built largely on commercial considerations. When SARS emerged, a lot of resources worldwide were devoted to vaccine and therapeutic development. The vast majority of these funds disappeared with the disease more than a decade ago. Scientists are now thawing old isolates from their freezers and rewriting grants that had been rejected repeatedly, before the attention of government agencies and funders worldwide is again lost when this epidemic inevitably comes to an end. We can only hope that with the better diagnostics, infrastructure and experience we currently have in Singapore, the impact of this virus will not be as devastating for us locally and for the rest of the region, compared to where it first emerged. These outbreaks are constant reminders for us to remain vigilant and resilient, and to be advocates of the One Health approach to preserve life on this planet.

In the last two decades, the application of computer in mining industry has showed a rapid development with great success especially in the field of ore reserve estimation. Treatment of huge data set in an accurate and fast manner was a dream of the scientists working in the field of reserve estimation and sampling methods. This project aims to estimate the ore reserves in three parts of Upper Egypt, namely Wadi Kalabsha kaolin, Abu Ghalaga ilmenite deposit and Sukari gold. The three selected ores with different geological features were tested here, using different sampling points (number and distribution). Calculation of ore reserves using computer-aided have been done using triangular method and kriging technique to see which one is better in implementation. The ore reserve estimation as well as the estimation of the average thickness, and average assay of the deposits under study were carried out using Excel software, while, kriging technique was implemented using VARIOWIN 2.2 and GSLIB software's. Not to mention, data were screened at the primary stage of calculations using summary statistics and the results were introduced in the form of tables, reports, contour maps, and 3D representations of the variables. While the triangular method showed success in determining the average assay and reserves of the stratified deposit (Kalabsha kaolin) and the lens of Abu Ghalaga ilmenite, it failed with the gold reserves of Sukari, where kriging technique showed better and more reliable results. In all cases our task was to provide a robust, accurate, and easy use tool that would assist the mining industry. On the other hand, we have prepared a database for the three deposits to be added to the Mining Information System (MIS), Software developed in 2003 by a group of computer applications in mining (camG) at the Mining Engineering Department of Assiut University.

Last year, J.C. Blair Memorial Hospital confronted a painful reality: Without radical change, the 107-year-old rural Huntingdon County hospital wasn't going to survive.
The hospital turned to Robert Gillio, 64, a Mayo Clinic-trained lung specialist, to attack the problem.
Dr. Gillio, J.C. Blair's new medical director for population health and clinical innovation, proposed a more efficient, less costly way of treating patients through a videoconference hookup called telemedicine — connecting doctors with patients online. He enlisted students at nearby Juniata College in developing educational videos about opioid addiction and childbirth that patients could retrieve from the hospital's website.
Then Dr. Gillio ran into a problem. The telemedicine hookup he envisioned relies on broadband access — the cable, satellites and fiber that makes getting onto the internet possible.
But he could barely get internet access at his home near the county seat of Huntingdon, where he and his wife, Beth, 61, who teaches online college courses, had moved.
Their house was just four miles from his office. He said Comcast, a local broadband provider, quoted a price of $100,000 to get their street online.
It is a familiar problem to many people living in rural areas.
Even as businesses in Pittsburgh compete to commercialize artificial intelligence and give machines the human quality of "learning," just a three-hour drive away people struggle with dial-up connections — if there are internet connections at all.
More than 24 million Americans — 800,000 in Pennsylvania and mostly in rural areas — lack an internet connection that meets a federal minimum standard for speed. The result is a yawning divide in commerce, education and medicine that's splitting America into the digital haves and have-nots.
"We're basically being cut off from the 21st century," Huntingdon County Planning Director Mark Colussy said.
D.J. Drenning, 37, chief of the Robertsdale, Wood & Broad Top Volunteer Fire Co., has an erratic heartbeat, an occasional circus rhythm, that leaves him lightheaded, clammy and exhausted.
Doctors at J.C. Blair implanted a small monitor in his chest to capture the unusual rhythm, enabling them to understand how to treat it. For a while, Mr. Drenning — whose father had a major heart attack at age 34 — carried a handheld device that, when activated, noted the time of the symptoms.
But the wireless signals that transmitted his heart rhythms only sporadically reached his doctor's office.
It's not only broadband access to the internet that is lacking in this part of central Pennsylvania. The towers needed to make cell phones work are also lacking for the same reason broadband hasn't caught on: too many miles, too few subscribers.
Lainie Drenning, a registered nurse who lives with her husband and three children in Waterfall, Fulton County, seems resigned to the disparity.
The equipment that the doctors hoped would alert them to problems with Mr. Drenning's heartbeat was mostly useless because of the spotty connections.
Today, the handheld device gathers dust in the family's kitchen.
"The damage done to a 21st-century community by not being part of the 21st-century economy is astoundingly bad," said Sascha Meinrath, a telecommunications policy specialist at Penn State University who believes the number of people without usable internet connections is higher than government estimates.
Huntingdon is among six counties that make up central Pennsylvania. It's a place of rolling Allegheny Mountains, lush farms and a maximum security prison. The county, population 46,000, draws more than a million tourists every summer.
While many embrace the allure of a slower lifestyle, there are limits to living virtually off the digital grid. Expanded broadband and cell service was named as a top priority by the Southern Alleghenies Planning and Development Commission in a March planning document.
Public safety and economic competitiveness were cited as reasons.
Central Pennsylvania's disability rate, 14.1 percent, exceeds the state level of 11 percent and national rate of 10.3 percent, according to the Southern Alleghenies Planning and Development Commission.
The region has an aging population that has been declining. One-third of homeowners in the six-county region are 65 or older. While 10,200 people moved out of the area between 2010 and 2016, only 969 moved in.
Based on 2015 data, the least-connected counties in the U.S. generally have the highest rates of chronic disease: obesity is 25 percent higher; diabetes, 41 percent higher; and preventable hospitalizations, 1.5 times higher when compared to digitally connected counties — leaving 36 million people on the wrong side of the digital divide, Ms. Clyburn said. And it's getting worse.
"In sum, the data show that the rural/urban broadband health gap appears to be growing," said Ms. Clyburn, who stepped down from the FCC in early June.
J.C. Blair's financial woes were sown over the decades with each hospital addition ribbon-cutting. As the capacity to care for more patients inside the building grew, technology smoothed the way for medicine's move to clinics outside the hospital, where costs were lower and the profit margins higher.
The result: The overall capacity of J.C. Blair, a 66-bed hospital, is between two and two and a half times bigger than necessary to meet community needs, said Adam Dimm, 39, the hospital's CEO. That means the hospital loses money on treating nearly every patient who walks in the door.
Most rural hospitals in Pennsylvania lost money in fiscal 2016, according to the Harrisburg trade group Hospital and Healthsystem Association of Pennsylvania, but things are worse at Huntingdon County's only hospital, where Mr. Dimm said the losses have been mounting for more than 20 years. Last year's loss of $1 million was the smallest ever.
J.C. Blair's maternity ward alone lost $1.5 million in 2017, but Mr. Dimm said he's loathe to close the unit, which would force pregnant women in Huntingdon to drive 30 miles to the next county to deliver.
Another point of financial pressure: 65 percent of the hospital's patients are either covered by Medicare or Medicaid, government programs that pay less than commercial insurers, Mr. Dimm said.
The hospital, as many of its peers have done, is looking outside the county for funding and expertise.
J.C. Blair is shopping for a deep-pocketed partner, which Mr. Dimm said will only be a stopgap measure. Keeping hospital units open will require a bold solution.
The scenic overlooks and winding roads around 30-mile-long Raystown Lake attract tourists to Huntingdon County. But the geography means that half of J.C. Blair's patients are a 30- to 80-minute drive from the hospital.
More than 800 missed medical appointments at the hospital annually are due to problems that patients have in getting a ride there, Mr. Dimm said.
Congestive heart disease, chronic breathing problems and behavioral health issues are among the top community medical issues identified in a survey done by the hospital. Registered nurse Vanessa Locke, 59, who has worked in home health for 27 years, has seen the value of telemedicine.
One of her patients, a man in his his 70s, had been hospitalized 10 times in one year for congestive heart disease, a condition that can turn life-threatening without careful attention.
Through a special program around 2004, the patient received a home-monitoring unit, which recorded his weight and vital signs daily. Doctors kept tabs on the readings, tweaking his care plan accordingly, using a basic telephone connection.
After getting the unit, the patient did not have to be hospitalized once in the next four years, said Ms. Locke, who lives on a 300-acre farm in Shade Gap.
But the program that made the patient's home-monitoring unit possible has since lapsed.
In January, Medicare began covering at-home patient monitoring while increasing the number of payments for patient consults with a distant physician at a doctor's office or hospital. The payments rose 28 percent to $28.7 million between 2016 and 2017.
Electronic home monitoring of vital signs isn't technically considered telemedicine by Medicare, according to Foley & Lardner LLP, a law firm specializing in health regulations.
Even without an increase in reimbursement, a videoconference link between doctors and patients at home could save Medicare and other health insurance carriers $5 million while avoiding more than 1,000 unnecessary hospital admissions annually at J.C. Blair, Dr. Gillio said, citing an internal study.
It would also dramatically shrink the cost of providing medical care, in part, by shrinking unnecessary hospitalizations. The hospital could start running in the black.
As it is, more than half of J.C. Blair's patients don't have internet access, said Dr. Gillio.
He wants to tap a high-speed fiber cable that runs through Huntingdon County to expand broadband coverage. Harrisburg nonprofit Keystone Initiative for Network Based Education and Research, which serves schools, hospitals and other clients, owns the cable. Details of connecting to it are not finalized.
Meanwhile, the Veterans Administration has monitored patients with chronic health conditions at home for years, including Pat Easton, 77, a retired military employee who lives with wife Carol, 61, on the Tussey Mountain Ridge in James Creek, "way back in the hills," he said.
Diabetes and high blood pressure are among Mr. Easton's medical problems, which the VA monitors with an ordinary telephone wire and a table top device that records blood pressure, heart rate and other vital signs.
If any of the readings are out of whack, he gets a call from a VA nurse.
The Veterans Administration doesn't offer the technology to non-veterans.
A Verizon spokeswoman declined to comment about broadband service. Even though they're different technologies, internet and cell phone communications are out of reach in places like Huntingdon because the necessary infrastructure has never been built.
In addition to boosting health care options, better broadband access has the potential to spark an economic revival — an idea partly supported by the Southern Alleghenies Planning and Development Commission — for a county with an unemployment rate of 5.6 percent, in excess of the statewide average of 4.7 percent.
Free broadband in Huntingdon could attract entrepreneurs from Penn State University 30 miles away. Huntingdon's hollowed out business district might begin humming with startup companies. Coffee shops and boutiques would follow.
Other initiatives could also help to pull central Pennsylvania into the digital age, including a first-of-its-kind Federal Communications Commission auction in July. The lowest bidders will receive $1.98 billion in government aid over 10 years to build out the digital infrastructure in rural areas of the country, including Huntingdon.
In the meantime, the Gillios are house hunting.
Mr. Drenning, a union pipefitter in addition to a fire chief, says he has more pressing communication concerns than his heart rhythm. Huntingdon County is switching to digital emergency dispatch, but his fire company hasn't been able to pay to upgrade radios to receive the new signal.
Of 16 fire companies in the county, all volunteer, only four received grant money for the switch, said Huntingdon County 911 Director Chris Stevens.
Robertsdale is among the fire companies with precarious finances, depending on regular fish fries, spaghetti dinners and raffles to keep the station lights on.
Bad news came a few months ago when the Federal Emergency Management Agency turned down the company's application for a grant to cover the cost of upgrading to digital from low-band communications, a technology that cities such as Pittsburgh dropped several years ago.
Big parts of America don't yet know the educational, economic and public safety improvements the internet offers, 23 years after the first glimpse of the world wide web, said Paul Goodman, interim telecommunications director at the Greenling Institute, an Oakland, Calif.-based policy research nonprofit.
Mr. Drenning remembers the time a fire chief from a neighboring company was unable to summon help with a low-band portable radio after falling through the roof of a burning house into the basement. Luckily, his injuries were not life-threatening.
Now, Robertsdale is scrambling to come up with $80,000 for new equipment, almost equal to the fire company's annual budget of $90,000.
The sun was setting on a recent spring day in Robertsdale, a village in southwest Huntingdon County. About 35 people had turned out for a night of bingo, fried fish sandwiches and chicken tenders at the fire company's social hall.
It was a good crowd, Mr. Drenning said. Inside a Robertsdale fire engine truck and ambulance are iPads loaded with the latest software, where details of an emergency call — with maps and pictures — light up the screen.
The technology is standard in larger cities, allowing first-responders to more quickly identify the origin and nature of an emergency than is possible with the dog-eared, typewritten pages of the past.
But Robertsdale's spotty wireless — only 45 percent of the company's 24-square-mile service area has a cell phone connection — means the iPads go blank almost as soon as the vehicles pull out of the station.
Maybe it would have been better not to have even known about such advancements, Mr. Drenning said.
"I almost wish we'd never have seen what we could've had," he said.

"Being on the list feels great, and it motivates me to further do great research in my field and help those who are in need of medical and healthcare resources," said Jiang.


It was a shame that I found this church locked. It is a pretty church in a pretty village. There were no details of when it was open or a key holder. Rather bizarrely the notice board outside had a schedule of services at the nearby St. Mary's Gilston (also locked) but nothing about St. Botolph's. This does'nt exactly attract people who might like to come along to a service here.

Q: Tokenizing an arithmetic expression? Say I have:
3.14 + 3 * (7.7/9.8^32.9  )

I need to tokenize this input string:
3.14
+
3
*
(
7.7
/
9.8
^
32.9
)

Is there a convenient way to do this with a stringstream or something else from STL or should I look at the input 1 char at a time and do it myself?

A: It depends on what you mean by 'convenient'. You can do it easily with a stringstream, but I don't know if that's what you're looking for:
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <sstream>

using namespace std;

struct token{
      char c;
      float f;
      bool number;

      token():number(false),c(0){};
};

vector<token> split(string input)
{
   stringstream parser(input);
   vector<token> output;
   while(parser)
   {
      token t;
      if(isalnum(parser.peek()))
         parser >> t.f;
      else
         parser >> t.c;
      t.number = (t.c==0);
      output.push_back(t);
   }
   output.pop_back();
   return output;
}

int main()
{
    string input = "3.14 + 3 * (7.7/9.8^32.9  )";
    vector<token> tokens = split(input);
    for(unsigned int i=0;i<tokens.size();i++)
    {
       if(tokens[i].number) cout << "number: " << tokens[i].f << endl;
       else cout << "sign: " << tokens[i].c << endl;
    }
}

A: Normally you would use Flex/Bison to generate a simple lexer and optionally parser. Or if you are after C++ compiler only solution - Boost.Spirit (example). No pure STL solution exists, I believe, which you would like.
I favor Flex/Bison approach, so your tokenizer written in Flex would be:
%{

#include <iostream>
#include <memory>

%}

%option prefix="Calc"
%option noyywrap
%option c++

ws      [ \t]+

dig     [0-9]
num1    [-+]?{dig}+\.?([eE][-+]?{dig}+)?
num2    [-+]?{dig}*\.{dig}+([eE][-+]?{dig}+)?
number  {num1}|{num2}

%%

{ws} /* skip */
{number} std::cout << "=> number " << YYText() << '\n';

"+"|"-"|"*"|"/"|"^" std::cout << "=> operator " << YYText() << '\n';

"("|")" std::cout << "=> parenthesis " << YYText() << '\n';

. std::cout << "=> unknown " << YYText() << '\n';

%%

int main( int argc, char **argv )
{
    std::unique_ptr<FlexLexer> lexer(new CalcFlexLexer);
    while(lexer->yylex());
    return 0;
}

And compilation command line:
$ flex calc.l
$ g++-4.7 -std=c++11 -o calc lex.Calc.cc
$ calc
1 + (2e4^3)
=> number 1
=> operator +
=> parenthesis (
=> number 2e4
=> operator ^
=> number 3
=> parenthesis )

Covestro to sell European Systems Houses Business to H.I.G. Capital
Covestro continues portfolio optimization
Sales proceeds in the high-double-digit euro million range / Systems houses with revenues of EUR 230 million / Covestro to remain a key supplier to European Systems Houses / New ownership allows unit to further grow and to position itself as an independent player
Covestro has signed an agreement with H.I.G. Capital ("H.I.G.") for the sale of Covestro's European Systems Houses business. H.I.G. focuses on investments in small and mid-sized companies. The sales proceeds amount to a high-double-digit euro million sum. The decision to sell the systems houses was taken as part of Covestro's ongoing portfolio optimization process that includes the sale of Covestro's North American spray polyurethane foam systems house in 2017.
"Our focus is future growth and value creation. That's why evaluating and optimizing our portfolio is part of our daily business", said CFO Dr Thomas Toepfer. "Providing tailor-made solutions, systems houses serve relevant market needs. However, in an advanced polyurethanes market like Europe we focus on a more centralized approach to efficiently address the needs of our customers."
With its new owner H.I.G., the European Systems Houses now have the perspective to position themselves as an independent, focused player for mid-sized customers. In Asia with its developing polyurethane markets, Covestro will continue to serve its customers through its established systems houses network.
The systems houses are part of the company's Polyurethanes segment and are offering tailor-made polyurethanes systems for customers. The European Systems Houses business comprises facilities in the Netherlands, Denmark, Spain, Germany and further businesses in Italy. Approximately 250 employees are generating annual sales of some EUR 230 million. Operations will continue at the current facilities while Covestro will continue to have strong ties with the systems houses as a key polyurethanes supplier.
Polyurethanes are a class of plastics that can be found in many areas of modern life - be it in the form of soft or rigid foam or as thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). They are used in numerous applications like, for instance, mattresses, automobile seats, sports equipment or as insulating material in buildings and refrigerators.
With view on scale and capabilities as well as the solid asset base, the European Systems Houses perfectly fits into H.I.G.'s buy-and-build approach. H.I.G. aims to further develop their pan-European presence and to build a strong and independent European group of polyurethane systems houses with a clear focus on mid-sized customers. The company intends to continue working with the current experienced management team of the systems houses to further improve the business. The closing of the transaction is expected for the second half of 2019 after the required antitrust clearance.
About H.I.G. Capital
H.I.G. is a leading global private equity and alternative assets investment firm with over ?26 billion of equity capital under management.
