Общество историков-марксистов (ОИМ) — организация, действовавшая в 1925—1936 годах. Было создано по инициативе М. Н. Покровского при Комакадемии для объединения советских историков, работавших на позициях марксизма. Общество было призвано стать их научным и методологическим центром, содействовать организации преподавания истории в ВУЗах и школах.

История общества
Создание ОИМ шло весной 1925 года. Среди его учредителей — M. H. Покровский, А. В. Шестаков, В. П. Волгин, П. О. Горин, А. М. Панкратова. Официально о создании общества было объявлено 1 июня 1925 года. По другим данным, учредительное собрание состоялось 2 марта.

Создание общества было обусловлено желанием консолидировать силы учёных-марксистов в условиях, когда дореволюционные специалисты во многом еще определяли лицо исторической науки. Для марксистов эти специалисты были «буржуазными историками».

Первоначально в состав ОИМ входило около 40 человек, преимущественно из Москвы; в 1927 г. — 177 человек, из них 145 в Москве. В 1929 г. ОИМ объединяло уже 345 человек.

Устав Общества, определивший его структуру, права и обязанности членов, был принят 15 февраля 1926 г.

В конце 1928 — начале 1929 года была проведена I Всесоюзная конференция историков-марксистов.

В 1929 г. ОИМ вошло в состав Комакадемии. В 1930 г. было преобразовано во Всесоюзное научное общество. В этой связи уже в 1931 г. общество насчитывало около 30 региональных отделений (в Ленинграде, Казани, Воронеже, Свердловске, Ярославле, Новосибирске, Баку и других городах) и более 300 членов. При формировании региональной сети отделений первоочередные требования предъявлялись не к научным заслугам членов, а к их политической благонадежности; в состав обществ на местах принимали не только преподавателей ВУЗов, но и техникумов, и школьных учителей.

Согласно сведениям БСЭ, Общество прекратило свою работу уже в 1932—1933 годах. Фактически, в это время деятельность ОИМ сворачивается в связи со смертью М. Н. Покровского и тем, что пространство исторических исследований было «зачищено» от историков-немарксистов, завершением «культурной революции». Полностью общество прекратило свою деятельность в 1936 г. с ликвидацией Комакадемии.

Деятельность общества

Цели и задачи
Согласно уставу, задачами Общества провозглашались:

 Объединить всех марксистов, занимающихся научной работой в области истории;
 Разработка вопросов истории и марксистской методологии истории;
 Борьба с извращениями истории буржуазной наукой.

Организационная структура
В составе ОИМ работали секции:

 истории России;
 истории Коммунистической партии СССР;
 стран Запада;
 Востока;
 общественных форм;
 методическая.

Также действовали комиссии:

 по истории революционных войн и вооруженных восстаний;
 по истории пролетариата;
 империалистической войны 1914-18.

Участие в научных дискуссиях
После 1922 года наступил период относительно мирного сосуществования оставшихся представителей «старой» и «новой» науки. Историки марксисты и немарксисты совместно участвовали в подготовке статей для журнала «Историк-марксист», в «исторической неделе» в Берлине в июне 1928 г. и в международном конгрессе историков в Осло в том же году.

При этом уже с весны 1928 года, с Всесоюзной конференции марксистско-ленинских научно-исследовательских учреждений, усилилась критика методологических основ дореволюционной историографии. В апреле 1928 г. в журнале «Историк-марксист» была опубликована статья «"Новые" течения в русской исторической литературе», в которой М. Н. Покровский критиковал исследования Д. М. Петрушевского и Е. В. Тарле за «неокантианство», «антантофильство» и «затушевывание объективного хода европейской истории к социалистической революции». Резолюция Всероссийской конференции историков-марксистов объявляла членов ОИМ «воинствующими марксистами». На общем собрании ОИМ 19 марта 1930 г. была принята резолюция о том, что «каждого антимарксиста приходится рассматривать как потенциального вредителя».

Значительное место в деятельности ОИМ и его региональных отделений занимало празднование юбилеев революционных событий и лиц, организация  вечеров воспоминаний о Гражданской войне. Вместе с тем в ОИМ обсуждались вопросы сближения исторической науки со строительством социализма, преподавания исторических дисциплин в школах и ВУЗах, велся сбор информации о социалистическом строительстве на предприятиях.

Издания общества
 с 1926 г. журнал «Историк-марксист»;
 с 1931 г. журнал «Борьба классов».

Abstract. The Multi-Site Spectroscopic Telescope is a virtual instrument and the name of a collaboration that opens up a new observational window by combining continuous observations of spectroscopic variations and simultaneous photometric monitoring. This constitutes an enormous observational effort, but in return promises to finally provide access to a mode identification for and an asteroseismological analysis of the pulsating sdB star PG 1605+072. Multi-Site Spectroscopic Telescope observations for this object have been secured during a large coordinated campaign in May and June of the year 2002. The frequency resolution and coverage of the photometric time series has been noticeably enhanced by a significant contribution from the Whole Earth Telescope, which was used to observe PG 1605+072 as an alternate target during the WET Xcov22 campaign, also conducted in May 2002. This paper briefly outlines the motivation for the MSST project and tries to give a first assessment of the overall quality of the data obtained, with a focus on the Whole Earth Telescope observations.

There is a strong case that they are. Having been demonized for many years and intimidated from defending themselves, white people are now intentionally discriminated against by the racial "minorities" (actually vast world majorities) of the people they have been pressured to elevate above them. Once the "oppressed" are put in charge by dumbshit whites, the whites are really oppressed.
Heterosexuals or straights are also demonized and bullied. White males are portrayed as rapists, but no one is permitted to say that about the flood of illegal Third World migrants that have overrun Europe and the US. When young white girls 10 years old are gang-raped by the migrants, it is "racist" to complain. Everywhere in the Western world, what little is left of it, the political leaders have abandoned the white populations. We only have traitors.
No one anywhere in the Western World represents the white populations except demonized leaders like Marine Le Pen, who the French government wants to imprison. As she represents French people, she is considered to be a Nazi.
Trump intended to do something for the dispossessed whites who elected him, but he is too much under Israel's control to be able to help Gentiles
New York City's white mayor, Bill de Blasio, appointed a Mexican to head the New York schools. The first thing the Mexican did was to fire the white female executives and to impose an educational policy that discriminates against white kids.
Despite scandal after scandal and costly law suit after law suit, the white mayor clings to Richard Carranza, the Mexican, because he realizes that whites have no organized cohesion and therefore no political power.
I have written before about Carranza and his anti-white campaign as chancellor of New York's public schools. https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2019/05/24/whiteness-is-the-new-evil/ If you have any interest to wake up to your own demise, here are reports from the New York Post:

In far away Russia Vladimir Putin—the only leader the West has—has noticed that the Western peoples are being browbeat into submission to their enemies—the migrants that have overrun them. Apparently, there is no fight left in white people. They allow their historic memorials to be taken down, historic murals to be painted over, and submit to the brainwashing that has reduced white people to political impotence. https://russia-insider.com/en/putin...s-pushing-sexual-weirdness-them-video/ri27379

Whites, a majority of America's poor, were being charged double the price of "minorities' to attend a musical performance. Try to imagine charging blacks double the price of white admission. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-48911917
The wierd and unnatural LGBTQ movement is a tiny minority of the population in the Western world. Yet this insignificant group calls the shots when it comes to sex education and to the recruitment of young children into the ranks of the abnormal. The Western world stands for this and the Dutch are even trying to legalize pedophilia.

THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy -- willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.
Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.

Bzzzz mosquito season
In the developed world, mosquitoes are best known as annoying buzzing insects that invade picnics and barbecues, but in the developing parts of the world they kill tens of millions of people a year. The most well known mosquito-borne disease is probably malaria, but there are dozens more, from parasites that infect pets with heartworm to viruses that cause fatal disease in humans.
Mosquitoes belong to the same insect class as flies (Diptera, meaning "two wings"), but they have a proboscis – a long needle-like mouth. This physical adaptation allows the female mosquitoes to feed on blood for nourishment when preparing to lay eggs for the next generation of mosquito. Different species of mosquito like different species of blood. Culex, Aedes, and Anopheles are a few genus' of mosquitoes that bite humans.
How mosquitoes spread disease
Because the female mosquito drinks blood, it can also take up infectious agents that live in the blood. Some of these pathogens have a life cycle that includes using the mosquito stomach as an incubator and then are transferred to another bite victim (such as Plasmodium), or they are capable of surviving in progeny to be transmitted later (such as arboviruses). Mosquitoes that spread disease are known as vectors.
According to health agencies, malaria kills 2 to 3 million people a year in developing countries. The Anopheles gambiae mosquito transmits the sporozoites of the Plasmodium falciparum parasite to humans after incubating the parasite in its gut. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) offer a diagram of the Plasmodium life cycle involving two hosts – an infected human and a mosquito, which then infects a second human. Malaria can occur in the United States, though mosquito control over the decades has removed much of the threat.
Malaria appears 10 days to 2 weeks after the infecting mosquito bite, causing fever, headache and vomiting. The World Health Organization (WHO) and other groups work to prevent disease with mosquito netting, insecticide control, and immediate treatment. Prophylactic treatment, including chloroquin and other similar drugs, is used for travelers from developed countries.
Arbovirus-based encephalitis
Arthropod-borne viruses, or arboviruses, are viruses that live in mosquitoes and other insects for transmission to vertebrate hosts, such as humans. These include a number of different types of viruses that cause swelling of the central nervous system and meningitis, including West Nile, eastern equine encephalitis, west equine encephalitis, St Louis encephalitis, Powassan encephalitis, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, Japanese encephalitis, and La Crosse encephalitis. Arboviruses have a global distribution, with more cases being seen in the United States in past years, particularly of West Nile Virus. Transmission risk can be minimized by using insecticide containing 30 percent DEET (10 percent for children) and taking other basic precautions to avoid mosquito bites (long sleeves, not going outside at dusk, and prevent standing water, where mosquitoes lay eggs and hatch).
Mosquitoes also spread viruses that cause Yellow fever and Dengue fever, which are endemic to underdeveloped parts of the world. However, these diseases have been seen in the United States and Dengue has spread to the Caribbean and become a global issue according to the CDC. Dengue hemorrhagic fever, a specific course of Dengue virus infection, is transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. In addition to having a fever for several days to a week, the infected individual also suffers from bleeding and pain. No specific treatment exists for either course of infection with Dengue virus. Aedes aegypti also spread yellow fever. Yellow fever causes jaundice, with a 15 to 50 percent fatality rate. Yellow fever can be prevented by vaccine, which is recommended for travelers to parts of the world with endemic mosquito-borne diseases.

Home / Clinical / Diabetes / NICE recommends widening access to glucose monitoring tech
NICE recommends widening access to glucose monitoring tech
By Rebecca Jenkins
Any patient living with type 1 diabetes should be able to access glucose monitoring technology, according to new draft National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines.
In the proposals, NICE has recommended making intermittently scanned glucose monitoring (commonly known as flash) and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) available to all adults with type 1 diabetes.
The guidelines committee predicted that the proposed changes would result in broader access to flash and real-time CGM devices, 'as opposed to a binary decision on access based on stringent criteria'.
'This should reduce inequalities and enable more people to use CGM. Currently, people with more time and knowledge to self-advocate are often more likely to gain access to these devices,' the committee wrote.
New draft guidelines also proposed that children and young people with type 1 diabetes should have access to CGM alongside patient education on using the technology.
Flash, which is only licensed for children aged 4 years and over, could be offered to children and young people with type 1 diabetes if they were unable to use CGM or had a clear preference for flash, the guidelines stated.
Clinicians should consider a range of factors when assessing CGM for children including whether the device provided predictive alerts or alarms and whether these needed to be shared with a carer and how easy the device was to use.
'One of the known factors determining the use of CGM devices among children and young people with type 1 diabetes is sensitivities to the device, for example local skin reactions to the adhesive used in the sensor,' the committee wrote, adding it was recommending more research on CGM sensory adhesive to prevent sensitivities.
Separate draft proposals also recommended flash glucose monitors for people with type 2 diabetes who use insulin intensive therapy (four or more injections a day) andexperience regular or severe hypoglycaemia together with other criteria.
The charity Diabetes UK, which has campaigned for increased access to the technologies, called the proposals a big step forward.
'At the moment, NICE only recommends access to CGM in very limited circumstances and the guidelines don't mention flash at all,' the charity said in a statement.
'We've been involved every step of the way in this guideline update process, pushing for better access to this important technology. We're thrilled to see NICE listen to us, and others, who have been calling for them to recommend wider flash and CGM use.'
The final guidance is expected to be published in March 2022.
Both flash monitors and CGM rely on sensors worn under the skin to measure glucose in interstitial fluid. CGM tracks glucose levels continuously and sends data to a handheld monitor or pump. While with flash monitors, patients must scan the sensor to take a reading.
It comes after a study found that poor long-term blood glucose management could increase the risk of people with diabetes needing intensive care if they contract Covid-19.

There's a fine balance to be struck with a tent for bikepacking or touring between comfort, weight, packsize and ease of use. The Mountain Hardwear SuperMegaUL 1 is definitely light, packs down small and goes up easily, which all makes for an excellent start.
The SuperMegaUL 1 is Mountain Hardwear's lightest one-man (or woman) tent, and is aimed squarely at fast and light backpackers and cyclists, or anyone for whom low overall weight and compact packsize are absolutely crucial.
It's made using some of the lightest fabrics and components in the industry, yet is still designed to be fully weatherproof and durable.
At less than a kilo all in, it's hard to find fault with the weight of the SuperMegaUL 1. Everything packs into a decent compact space too, with the end result fitting into a rear pannier quite happily, or the pouch straps easily onto a rear rack.
The tent pitches inner first, with just two DAC Featherlight NSL poles and some clever clips and eyelets. This mesh inner is completely self-standing and makes an ideal hot weather shelter, giving protection against insects and yet allowing the breeze to pass through. The super-lightweight outer waterproof fly sheet fastens easily and mainly with just tent pegs, rather than actually clipping to the interior. This helps reduce the weight and bulk further too. There's a small porch created by the fly sheet, and mesh pockets in the inner tent to keep things tidy.
Pitching the tent was incredibly quick and easy, taking just five to ten minutes including the outer fly sheet. The poles are joined together, so there's absolutely no confusion at all as to what goes where. There's only one place they CAN go!
As tempting as the inner mesh tent is, I can't imagine it will be used alone that often in UK conditions, but it's the sort of thing that makes European touring that bit more enjoyable. I've spent many a night under canvas in the Mediterranean and roasted. This tent puts paid to that problem. With the outer, though, it's watertight and still fast to put up.
Space inside is ample for one person, even a six-footer, but definitely only one. Even spooning. The porch created by the fly sheet doesn't give much space for storage of luggage or cooking in bad weather, but it's just about big enough for a pair of rear panniers, and the less tall cyclist has space inside the tent too.
The tent was stable and didn't leak, but overall it definitely favours changeable weather rather than persistently bad weather, given the ultra-lightweight nature of the fly sheet, the lack of ventilation options and the way the outer pitches. In fairness, who wants to set off on a week's cycle tour expecting persistent rain and gail force winds? Not I! If you don't have a choice, though, a different and almost certainly heavier tent might be a better option.
Price wise, this is somewhere in the middle of the vast continuum of prices for a one-person tent, but it marks good value given that it's an extremely technical tent, extraordinarily light and very easy to pitch, perfectly tuned for solo adventures. Most tents of a comparable weight and packsize are more expensive than the SuperMegaUL 1. The more likely it is that you're going to travel to warmer climes, the better and better value this tent gets.
"Our lightest 1-person backpacking tent. Truly free standing, with integrated vestibule. An ultra lightweight and compact tent for fast packing, cycling and other extremely space- and weight-sensitive trips."
Does just what it's supposed to. Incredibly light and compact.
Superbly well made from high quality fabric and components.
Such incredibly lightweight fabric does incur a penalty of being more likely to tear or catch on brambles and the like, but if taken care of properly and mindfully, it should last just fine.
Weight cannot be faulted, especially for a tent with plenty of space for one person.
Extremely comfortable, especially inner only for hot conditions.
Very good value for its weight and pack size. Many tents of similar spec are much more expensive.
Amount of space for one person, ease of erection, light weight and small pack size.
Lack of ventilation options for wetter weather, slightly small porch.
Would you consider buying the product? Probably, especially if planning overseas tours in hot conditions.
A very well considered tent, and extremely easy to put up and take down. Best suited to occasional bad weather rather than prolonged, but up to the job nonetheless. Perfect choice for hot-conditions bike camping.
The same price as a Classic wind jacket and a Pro team softshell jacket from Rapha.
I know where I'd rather sleep.
I'm interested to know the smallest possible length this can pack down to, as determined by the longest piece of pole.
Reviewer says according to the website the minimum length is 48cm, and it definitely fits in a classic rear pannier in her experience. Hope that helps!


Think Your Child May Need Tutoring?
Anyone who says that being a teenager is easy hasn't ever been one.
Your kids are going through all kinds of changes, inside and out...a lot more is expected of them...and, with increased competition to get into college, academic pressures are heating up–big-time.
With after school sports and extra-curricular activities, growing expectations of family and friends, it's easy to let studies fall behind.
Sometimes they need a little help getting back on track.
Many of my students who've been struggling are amazed at how quickly they "get things" once they are free from classroom distractions. As understanding grows, so does confidence. Anxiety decreases and, when it comes to exam time, my students know how to keep their cool.
I can work with your child on basic math and science course material, Regents or SAT prep, high school entrance exams, study skills and more–at his or her pace and in sync with their personal learning style.
Whether it's to catch up, keep up or move ahead, one-on-one tutoring gets results. Plus there are skills they will pick up along the way that will go with them for a lifetime.
P.S. If you'd like to learn more about how tutoring can help, please don't hesitate to give me a call. I will be happy to talk with you and your child. No pressure, no obligation. I promise.

Archbishop Schnurr appoints new President/Rector of Mount St. Mary's Seminary of the West
February 17th, 2011 by vocations
The following press release was issued this week announcing the change:
Cincinnati Archbishop Dennis M. Schnurr on Monday appointed the Rev. Benedict O'Cinnsealaigh the 35th president/rector of The Athenaeum of Ohio/Mount St. Mary's Seminary effective July 1.
At the same time, the archbishop thanked outgoing president/rector, the Rev. Edward P. Smith, for almost seven years of service. He is expected to be assigned to parish ministry.
The archbishop also created the position of vice rector and appointed the Rev. Anthony R. Brausch, an instructor of philosophy, to fill the post.
The announcements were made at the Athenaeum, 6616 Beechmont Ave., in Mount Washington.
"During his term as rector of Mount St. Mary's Seminary and president of the Athenaeum," Archbishop Schnurr said, "I am asking Father Benedict to give special attention to recruiting more dioceses to send their seminarians here, while continuing the spiritual, human and liturgical formation of our seminarians and growing the Athenaeum's role in the diocese as a center of education and training both for the work of the lay ecclesial ministry and for outreach and evangelization to teachers and families.
"I want to reiterate my commitment to Mount St. Mary's and the Athenaeum, and to the stated goal of this institution to become one of the premier institutions in the Church in the United States for the education and formation of priests and laity.
"In order to pursue these initiatives with the attention they deserve … (after discussion with Father O'Cinnsealaigh), I am appointing Father Anthony Brausch as vice rector."
Since 2004, Father O'Cinnsealaigh has served as director of seminary formation at The Athenaeum of Ohio's Mount St. Mary's Seminary, the third oldest Catholic seminary in the United States.
"I feel very fortunate to have served at Mount St. Mary's with Father Smith for the last eleven years," said Father O'Cinnsealaigh. "He has been very effective in his ministry here and has been a kind and insightful mentor. I hope I can build on his work as he has built on the good work of those who went before him.
"I feel somewhat anxious about taking on this new ministry, but being surrounded by so many good, faithful, and competent collaborators is encouraging and also exciting. The archbishop has a dynamic vision for the Athenaeum and the seminary and the next few years should prove to be exciting and hopefully fruitful for the Church." Father Benedict noted that while he is thousands of miles from his immediate family in Ireland, "I have a family here" at the Athenaeum and throughout the archdiocese.
Speaking of Father Smith, the archbishop cited many accomplishments during his tenure at the helm of the Athenaeum and its seminary. During Father Smith's watch, the Athenaeum conducted the most successful capital campaign in its 181-year history recently raising more than $19 million – some 21 percent above the goal of $15.75 million.
"For more than 50 years, the practice has been that a rector serves for a term of six to seven years. I think this is a good practice for the wellbeing of both the rector/president and the institution… I thank Father Smith for his years of dedicated work in the service of educating and forming men and women in the faith and preparing them for the work of the Church," Archbishop Schnurr said
At the Athenaeum, Father Smith never left the classroom during his tenure. He continued to teach seminarians, deacons and lay ministers while guiding the institution.
Archbishop Schnurr noted that the final phase of the expansion of seminarian housing from 46 to 70 suites came under Father Smith's leadership and positions Mount St. Mary's Seminary for future growth at a time when vocations to the Catholic priesthood are critically needed. Renovation and modernization of the Eugene H. Maly Memorial Library also was completed.
"The Athenaeum of Ohio/Mount St. Mary's Seminary has given me so much. For 15 years of my life — four as a seminarian and eleven on the faculty — I have lived and worked with many wonderful people," Father Smith said. "My vocation was formed here, and in the past years it has been strengthened by the zeal and commitment of our current students and faculty.
"One of the great joys in my time as president/rector is that I was given the opportunity to meet many people throughout the archdiocese and speak of the mission of this unique house of formation. I am so very grateful for all that God has given me in this assignment, and I will carry these gifts and memories with me always, thankful that I have worked with exemplary friends, colleagues, benefactors and students. My life, my vocation, and my ministry are better for having been here."
Father Smith succeeded the Rev. Gerald R. Haemmerle, presently pastor of St. Charles Borromeo Parish, Kettering, who also served in the position for seven years. Father Smith, appointed by then-Archbishop Daniel E. Pilarczyk was installed October 17, 2004.
Father O'Cinnsealaigh, 47, is a native of Dublin, Ireland. He is the oldest of five children and his parents, siblings and nieces and nephews all live in Dublin. Besides his roll as director of seminary formation, he also has served as director of permanent diaconate formation and as assistant professor of theology since 2000. He holds the recently created Archbishop Daniel E. Pilarczyk Chair in Systematic Theology.
The new president/rector holds a diploma in humanities (philosophy) from All Hallows College, Dublin; a bachelor's degree in sacred theology from the University of St. Thomas Aquinas, Rome; a licentiate in sacred theology and a doctorate in sacred theology from International Marian Research Institute, Dayton.
Prior to being assigned to the Athenaeum, Father O'Cinnsealaigh was assistant pastor of Holy Angels Parish, Sidney, Ohio, while also serving a head of the religion department and campus minister at Lehman Catholic High School, Sidney. He earlier served as assistant pastor at St. Albert the Great Parish, Kettering.
Father Smith also was serving as director of formation at Mount St. Mary's Seminary when appointed its president/rector. He is former vice rector and director of liturgy at the Pontifical North American College in Rome.
Father Smith, ordained in 1982, taught several seminary courses including: Principles of Religious Education, History of Christian Spirituality and Introduction to Spirituality.
Father Smith earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from the Athenaeum in 1978 prior to moving to Rome where he received a bachelor of sacred theology degree from the Pontifical Gregorian University – the equivalent of a master's of divinity from American graduate schools.
Father Smith was former resident associate pastor at Our Lord Christ the King Parish in Cincinnati (Mount Lookout) from 1988 to 1991 working with Father Haemmerle, then the pastor.
Following his ordination to the priesthood, Father Smith was a teacher and campus minister at his high school alma mater, Archbishop McNicholas, in Mount Washington (1983-90). He served as associate pastor at St. Thomas More Parish, Withamsville in Clermont County (1983-87) and as Sunday associate at St. Susanna Parish in Mason (1987-88). He became resident associate pastor at Our Lord Christ the King, Cincinnati (1988-91) and a member of the adjunct faculty at Mount St. Mary's Seminary (1989-95). He also served as a teacher and campus minister at Stephen T. Badin High School, Hamilton, and resident associate pastor at St. Peter in Chains Parish, Hamilton (1991-95) before moving to Rome.

The 2016 Chevy Silverado is packed with technology designed to make life easier. A long list of features, like powertrain grade braking, diesel exhaust braking, and integrated cruise control help drivers to maintain control in every condition, for every job. Now, Chevy has announced another technology to add to that list: Digital Steering Assist.
The 2016 Chevy Silverado's Digital Steering Assist power steering technology is available on some double cab and crew cab HD models, and offers enhanced road holding and stability for highway driving, regardless of whether the truck's bed is loaded or empty. Drivers will notice improved steering, as the system promises to feel and automatically correct and compensate for any road irregularities.
The 2016 Chevy Silverado offers the same powerful powertrain options as last year, including the 6.0-liter Vortec V-8 powertrain offering 360 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque, and the 6.6-liter Duramax V-8 turbodiesel, rated at 397 hp and 765 lb-ft of torque.

Emilio Cornalia  (* 21. Juli 1824 in Mailand; † 8. Juni 1882 ebenda) war ein italienischer Zoologe und Paläontologe.

Leben
Cornalia studierte zunächst Jura und dann Medizin in Pavia, wandte sich dort aber mehr den Naturwissenschaften und speziell der Geologie zu (seine Laurea-Dissertation von 1848 war formal in Medizin, das Thema war aber Geologie). 1849 habilitierte er sich.

Cornalia lehrte ab 1856 Zoologie am Technikum Santa Marta (später Cattaneo) in Mailand und ab 1863 an der Landwirtschaftshochschule. Von 1866 bis 1882 war er Direktor des Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Milano, nachdem er dort schon ab 1851 stellvertretender Direktor war. Sein Nachfolger wurde Antonio Stoppani. Er spielte eine wichtige Rolle bei der Gründung des Polytechnikums Mailand, an dem er Zoologie lehrte.

Cornalia befasste sich unter anderem mit der Anatomie von Insekten,  war einer der Gründer der Società Entomologica Italiana und veröffentlichte eine Monographie über den Seidenspinner (einschließlich Krankheiten, was zu einem Austausch mit Louis Pasteur führte). Er wurde auch bei anderen Pflanzenkrankheiten wie bei der Reblaus zu Rate gezogen. Von ihm stammen auch populärwissenschaftliche Werke.

Von ihm stammt die erste Publikation über die Fossilien vom Monte San Giorgio (in der Beschreibung des marinen Reptils Pachypleuria edwardsii 1854, heute Neusticosaurus edwardsii) und er war der Erste, der sie korrekt im Trias einordnete statt im Jura. 1878 unternahm er dort auch größere Ausgrabungen. Er reiste viel in Europa und 1873/74 nach Ägypten und den Nahen Osten.

Er war lange Präsident der Società Italiana di Scienze Naturali. Von 1875 bis 1877 und 1879 bis 1881 war er Präsident des Istituto Lombardo. 1875 wurde er Mitglied der Accademia dei Lincei. Im Jahr 1858 wurde er zum Mitglied der Leopoldina gewählt. 1869 wurde er korrespondierendes Mitglied der Académie des sciences.

Thinking at 3 AM
Selected new poems by Gerald T. Perkoff
by Gerald T. Perkoff
CHRYSALIS The old emerge slowly from sleep, like butterflies from their chrysalis, wings tentative, steps uncertain, not quite ready to fly. Does the butterfly ache, as I do, as he moves from darkness to light? Does he too begin his day in an envelope of silence, taking in the small sounds that come from nearby hills and restless waters? And when he escapes the earth and flies, does he remember his earlier fragility? Or does he do as the old dream of doing, fling caution to the winds and ride the updrafts of his all too brief time? OR YOU COULD USE THIS ONE IT'S THE BOOGIE! Oh, let the boogie roll out down and dirty, let me feel it in my bones and up my spine, let the keys tease me with "can you roll the barrel with Ammons and Johnson, Mary Lou and all the others who rode the boogie to the last of the low keys and played the highest of the right hand half steps?" How I wish I had felt free enough to roam the back-alley clubs and smelly dives where the heavy hitters split the night with a beat that shook the bricks and rattled the shots of whiskey they used to oil their joints with juice that hid the ratholes where the boogie rested between sets. It was a hard, gut-strung sound that jammed people from the four count to the eight-to-the-bar, it lived in the walls of their nights and lifted those who beat their feet and twisted their bellies to this hard-assed music, 'til they arrived at a bright new place in an otherwise dirty and often rhythmless world. ***
The Story of a Marriage
Gerald Perkoff
IS IT ALL RIGHT, STUART?
The house is quiet at 3 AM, no creaking, no sound except for the small bells that always ring in my ear. It is as though the house and kitchen and floor and chair are there only as a cocoon for my thinking. An old man's thoughts do not lack consistency. As man for eons has seen himself the keeper, so do I still take on the role of provider and protector… The poems in Thinking at 3 AM are tender, poignant, and frank expressions of the emotions of aging and the last phases of life. They also deal with the continuing love of a long and successful marriage, with serious illness that led to a near-death experience, with commitment to family, children, and grandchildren, as well as with diverse topics that always seem to express themselves in a poet's mind and pen. In contrast to the poems about aging, one long autobiographical poem describes the poet's childhood and young adulthood, and contains stories and incidents one hopes one's heirs will know and remember. These poems reflect the author's deepest feelings, remembering life, loss, and the glorious world that he lives in every day. There is a knowing that resides in each of them, inviting the reader along for the ride on the poet's life journey.
Gerald T. Perkoff, M.D. is Curators' Professor Emeritus at the University of Missouri, is the author of two earlier books of poetry, and is editor of The Collected Poems of Stuart Z. Perkoff. He and his wife, Marion, have three children and five grandchildren and live in Columbia, Missouri


Cornwall are out of the MCCA Trophy after a 21-run loss at Wiltshire.
Wiltshire's Joe Breet top-scored with 85 not out as the home side made 185-8 after losing the toss to Cornwall.
In reply, Wiltshire bowler Tahir Afridi took 3-27 as Cornwall were dismissed for 164 off 25 overs, with Paul Smith making 40 and Kelvin Snell 32.
The defeat, coupled with an abandoned game with Wales and a means Cornwall cannot make the top two places in their group.


Here, at Health & Aesthetics we offer a medically led weight loss program which combines weight loss, body sculpting and skin tightening. Moreover, our non-surgical programme that can dramatically improve your appearance and your long-term health. Health & Aesthetics is the only clinic in Surrey offering this life changing treatment. Dr Tailor has a wealth of experience in delivering this programme and has helped numerous patients from throughout Surrey and Hampshire to achieve excellent results.
Our program is the best way to lose weight fast and transform your body and life.
Unstable medical conditions. Recent surgery. Pregnancy. Breast-feeding.
Weight reduction, body sculpting & contouring.
WHAT IS THE ALEVERE DIET?
At the start of the treatment you will be provided with a carefully designed nutrition programme. This consists of many different fruit and vegetables, a lot of which can be eaten in unlimited quantities. This is enhanced by regular supplements of natural, purified proteins and amino acids.
You will not feel hungry, weak or lethargic and you will not have food cravings.
You will have sufficient energy to be able to exercise and function as normal.
WHAT IS THE ULTRASOUND THERAPY?
Weekly ultrasound treatments, using the latest and most effective ultrasound technology, will assist the breakdown of targeted fat deposits under your skin and result in inch loss. These fat cells are particularly hard to target through conventional dieting alone.
There are many independently reviewed and validated, published academic studies, which provide statistically valid evidence that the use of such ultrasound technology has a direct effect which results in disruption of fat cells under the skin and reduction of the thickness of the targeted fatty area.
WHAT IS THE CONNECTIVE TISSUE MASSAGE?
To address the tendency of skin to deteriorate in firmness and elasticity, as weight is lost, we use additional non-invasive technology, which has been specifically developed to target the skin and the tissue layers immediately underneath.
Weekly massage treatments will firm and tighten your skin. To do this we use specialized rollers that will break down uneven fatty tissue under the skin and stimulate new collagen production. Hardened, calcified, bumpy and uneven fatty tissue is broken down by this treatment, creating much smoother, softer skin.
WHAT ARE THE RESULTS AND STABILISATION PROCESS?
Once you have completed your body transformation programme and seen the results, the final step is stabilization.
We will provide you with a maintenance programme based on accurate measurements of your metabolic rate.
Monthly follow-up visits will also be offered to keep you on track and ensure you achieve long-term weight reduction.
HOW MUCH WEIGHT LOSS CAN I EXPECT FOLLOWING ALEVERE THERAPY®?
Your weight loss will be rapid enough to keep you motivated. In fact, we aim for a weight loss rate of 6-12kg (13-26 lbs) per month for most patients.
The weight loss on this treatment programme is remarkably predictable and your expected rate of loss will be calculated for you by the doctor at your very first consultation, before you start the treatment.

Don't expect your typical CW fare from new series Jane the Virgin . The new CW series premieres Monday, and already it's promising an interesting change of pace for the network. Forget vampires, superheroes, and rich kids — Jane the Virgin isn't interested in borrowing from any of The CW's well-established series. That's not to say that Jane the Virgin is an entirely without its own influences, of course: Showrunner Jennie Snyder Urman tells The Hollywood Reporter that Jane the Virgin is "Ugly Betty meets Gilmore Girls." If that statement is anywhere close to accurate, we're in for one fantastic fall of drama.
For those of you who don't know much about this telenovela-based series (it's source material is Venezuelan series Juana la Virgen ), it has an extreme premise that will make you never want to go to the OBGYN again. (But, obviously, please do.) 23-year-old Jane, who is keeping her virginity on lockdown until she gets married, finds herself artificially inseminated with her boss' sperm. It's a crazy concept, so it's no wonder that the show is being compared to ABC's own telenovela-inspired, Ugly Betty. As for Gilmore Girls, that aspect of Jane the Virgin is equally as evident: Much like Rory, Jane relies heavily on her mother and grandmother for support during this, umm, "confusing" time in her life. There's clearly DNA from both series in Jane the Virgin, but what should the new CW series borrow from its predecessors? Here's what made both Gilmore Girls and Ugly Betty so awesome.
Ugly Betty and Gilmore Girls weren't devoid of serious moments, but both series used a heavy dose of quirky humor to offset some of their more oddball situations. That's not to say Ugly Betty and Gilmore Girls are alike in their humor: Gilmore Girls is famous for its rapid-fire dialogue while Ugly Betty prided itself on snark. (Never forget Mark and Amanda's amazing one-liners, usually at Betty's expense.) Jane the Virgin needs to establish its own comedic identity — no one wants to watch an artificially insemination storyline that takes itself a little too seriously.
Jane the Virgin may borrow from Ugly Betty and Gilmore Girls, but I have faith that the new CW series will be anything but unoriginal. Tune into Jane the Virgin Monday at 9PM on The CW and check out the trailer below.

How to Copy a Map in Minecraft

Maps in Minecraft can be vital since, as a survival simulator, the game has exciting geographic rules that mimic real-life situations. Therefore, getting lost in the world is an everyday reality.
With a fantastic crafting system and a broad world, Minecraft allows for deep exploration with the assistance of various realistic in-game resources. For instance, one can go for long journeys by merely building a boat and a compass.
Unfortunately, not everybody has a perfect sense of direction, even with the assistance of an in-game compass. Still, Minecraft allows for different approaches concerning safe exploring, including cartography, to avoid players getting lost too often.
Mapping in Minecraft is essential and permits efficient registration of all surrounding resources. Yet, the game provides various ways to enhance the knowledge with maps and even expand their reach.
So, let's go through the essential functions, features, and mainly how to copy a map in Minecraft.
How Minecraft Maps Work
Making Maps in Minecraft
Crafting a Map
Copying Maps
In Minecraft, getting the materials to craft a map isn't very easy during the early game. So, you'll probably find it more advantageous to have this item after setting up a base and gathering enough resources to progress.
In the game, crafting a map has two approaches and each will lead to a different result.
For instance, while using eight papers and a compass, you can create an empty map with reference markers.
On the other hand, if you resort to nine paper slots and no compass, you'll end up with an empty map with no markers and more minor location points.
Conveniently, the best alternative is the map with markers. So, to get this item's crafting materials, you'll need to acquire paper and a compass. But, how to get those?
Let's dive into the recipe.
The main ingredient for maps is paper. So, make sure to have enough of it.
Crafting Paper
The most reliable method of having paper is to grow sugar canes. With three units of this ingredient horizontally set on a crafting table, you'll get a paper page. So, to get enough for a locator map, make sure to have at least 24 sugar canes.
Alternatively, a non-compassed map will require 27 sugar canes since it needs one extra paper unit.
In addition, paper can appear in different contexts of your gameplay.
For instance, keep looking out for villages, dungeons, and treasure chests, since they usually contain this item. Additionally, cartographers might trade some paper for emeralds.
Furthermore, the next item on the list is a compass, which will require a tad more effort.
Crafting a Compass
To craft a compass, you'll need to have a bit of experience in mining since the ingredients have mineral sources. Therefore, work to attain four units of iron and one of redstone dust. To craft the item, follow this setting:
Once again, you might get lucky and find compasses on chests in dungeons, villages, and shipwrecks.
After having eight units of paper and one compass, place them on a crafting panel with the following placement:
Furthermore, you can craft a markerless map featuring no position reference and add a compass to it later by using an anvil. Consequently, the map will begin to show handy markers.
And yet, you might even find already built maps inside a chest in a good ol' shipwreck, village, or dungeon. Additionally, cartographer villagers might sell empty maps for about seven emeralds.
So, as always, keep an eye on these locations.
Now, having an empty map means that you still didn't register anything yet. Therefore, opening it up for the first time will result in the initial input containing information about the player's area and surroundings.
Still, to add more information on the maps as you explore, holding it in the character's hands while walking is necessary. It's essential to understand the map's reach, which is 128×128 blocks but can reach up to 2048×2048 if you zoom it out through a cartography table.
Although crafting maps can be quite a straightforward task, there are more topics concerning them in Minecraft.
For example, using the cartography table allows for improvements regarding maps, including copying them.
Let's go through how to clone or copy a map, the purposes of doing so, and the best uses for it.
Copying maps in Minecraft is pretty handy, whether on singleplayer or multiplayer. The main goal of cloning the map is to have two separate items functioning as one. So, this means that every input one of the maps you copied receive will appear on the other one.
Therefore, having a copy of your map can come in pretty handy for your friends to know the exact place where you died in-game.
For instance, if you went exploring with the original map and left a copy of it on your base, every new area you record will also be apparent on the cloned map when you return home.
This way, if you lose one of them for some reason, you'll still have its identical alternative.
Moreover, one of the most exciting uses of cloned maps occurs in co-op runs with friends. For example, if you give one copy of a map to a friend and hold the original one before exploring in separate ways, the maps will fill quickly be receiving both records.
It's essential to understand that Minecraft has a map duplicating intentional system. So, copying a map is not the same as duping other items, which typically relies on a bug.
Additionally, the other player's location will show up when you open the map, almost in a GPS-like setting. Therefore, finding your buddy won't be an issue anymore.
Now, how exactly can you copy or clone maps? First, let's go through the process.
In Minecraft, there is only one method of cloning maps, which requires a cartography table. So, you can find one in villages, specifically inside a cartographer's house.
However, they're also pretty straightforward to craft, only requiring four units of wood planks and two of paper.
After having access to a cartography table, place an empty map on it, and combine it with another map. It's essential to understand that you can connect the blank map with any other map, regardless of whether it already has records or not.
Also, you can clone as many maps as you want, which is a plus when playing with multiple friends.

2 Teens Die in Seattle Protest Zone, Police Invade
by Eyal Alony July 1, 2020
written by Eyal Alony July 1, 2020
At least 31 people have been arrested at Seattle's Capitol Hill Organized Protest (CHOP) zone, after Mayor Jenny Durkan demanded the area be cleared. Police officers showed up at the crack of dawn, many wearing helmets and wielding batons and rifles. They tore down encampments and used bicycles as a fence to herd the protestors away.
The reason? There have been two deadly shootings involving teenagers in the CHOP, where crime is said to have risen by over 500% in just the last few weeks. Mayor Durkin has referred to the gathering of protestors as an "unlawful assembly." She ordered all barriers be removed from the area early Wednesday morning.
Teen Deaths Spark Move

The CHOP protest zone was initially home to peaceful protesters. However, according to local reports, six people have been shot in the area — including the two who were killed — over the last 12 days.
The first killing in the CHOP zone occurred on June 20, when 19-year-old Lorenzo Anderson was gunned down. Then, this past Monday, 16-year-old Antonio Mays, Jr. was shot and killed; witnesses say he was shot in his Jeep by the area's armed security after his vehicle hit a barrier in the police-free zone. A 14-year-old boy was also severely wounded in that shooting.
CHOP was created by activists calling for racial justice in response to the killing of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis. Protesters have been occupying several city blocks, including those in front of the Seattle Police Department's East Precinct, ever since SPD abandoned the building after clashing with protestors.
An eyewitness speaking to the Daily Mail said, "The Seattle Police Department basically reclaimed the precinct in less than 30 minutes, five feet at a time with the bicycle officers out front."
The Guardian reports that residents of the neighborhood watched the police activity from their balconies. People saw officers clearing out tents and checking public bathrooms in the area for stragglers. The Guardian says at one point there was a loud bang, followed by smoke.
Seattle police chief Carmen Best spoke outside the precinct this morning and said although officers had reclaimed the precinct, she did not know when they would move back in. Best said she supports Black Lives Matter and peaceful demonstration, but, she said, "What has happened on these streets over the last two weeks is lawless and it's brutal and bottom line it is simply unacceptable."
Below is video the Seattle police released showing the violence in the CHOP zone. WARNING: The footage may be disturbing.

You might be surprised by the answer to this question because research shows that people who work in healthcare are generally healthier. It sounds odd, but when you think about it, it makes a lot of sense. Let's look at some of the reasons why a career in healthcare could lead you to a healthier life.
Smoking, drugs, overeating and not exercising. We've all heard of what can happen if we neglect our bodies in these ways. We were warned by our parents, lectured in school and nagged by our partners. But often, it's only when you get a real experience of the issues that you start to truly appreciate some of the dangers here. It's difficult to ignore the dangers of drinking, for instance, when you've seen what it does to a once healthy liver. That's why despite the fact that crutches like this make TV characters interesting, real doctors don't tend to have these types of issues.
Contrary to belief doctors and nurses don't have a stronger immune system naturally. So, if you're hoping that working in a hospital is going to make you a superhuman, think again. However, doctors and nurses do have to keep their immune systems healthier by taking more supplements and eating well. So by working in medicine, you'll naturally improve your diet, and you will also boost up your immune system. You have to otherwise you would be sick every other day!
You might think that doctors and nurses are constantly paranoid, but that's not true. They just know when it's time to worry. If you look into nursing programs online, you'll see that part of the course is about recognizing symptoms in patients and recognizing when the situation is nothing to worry about. You'll learn both and this will, of course, benefit you in your personal life. How often do you head to the doctor thinking the worse, only to discover it's nothing? And how many people miss out on treatment they need because they don't recognize the signs. Well, once you study medicine, neither is going to happen to you. You'll know when to ignore issues with your body and when to get treatment from a professional.
It's odd to think of a medical career as something that isn't stressful, but it might not be. It depends on the position and where you are in your career. If you work in an emergency ward, you bet you'll be under pressure. But working in a clinic or as a private doctor, things are going to be far gentler. You won't be rushing around everywhere, and instead, you'll be in the perfect position to enjoy your career and benefit from it.
It seems clear then that working in healthcare could actually keep you healthy, leading you to a better lifestyle. You'll be eating well, building your immune system and let's not forget, you'll be completing rewarding, meaningful work. Something that will definitely impact your mental health.

Statement of the law firm Urban & Hejduk on behalf of the player Ondřej Kúdela on the decision of the UEFA Appeals Body
On Wednesday 26 May 2021 evening, the player Ondřej Kúdela received the decision of the UEFA Appeals Body regarding his incident with Glen Kamara reported during the UEFA Europa League match between Rangers FC and SK Slavia Praha held on 18 March 2021.
On Wednesday, a hearing was held of the player's appeal against the April decision of the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body. Several witnesses were examined during the several-hour online hearing – namely, Slavia players Deli and Sima, and a team masseur who were all close to the incident, as well as two linguistic experts. Kamara's teammate Zungu was cross-examined. On the same day, the UEFA Appeals Body upheld the previous decision.
Counsel René Cienciala noted: "In agreement with the client, we have requested the decision with the grounds yesterday evening; this is necessary for commencing sports arbitration. Today, we have agreed with the client to take this step." Hence, the proceedings will continue before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne.
Ondřej Kúdela stated: "I regret that I have lost the Euros, but I want to clear my name of racism, so we'll keep fighting! I am thankful to my family, to Slavia and Mr Tvrdík (note: president of Slavia), to the fans and the public for their great support – I really appreciate it." Regarding the incident, the player previously said: "I realize that it was a mistake to approach Glen Kamara at all and tell him anything. The match was full of emotions and, unfortunately, I can't take it back now. I'm very sorry for that."
In the meantime, our law firm has clarified with the UEFA Administration how the ten-match suspension should be calculated with respect to UEFA representative team competition matches during the forthcoming European Football Championship. Counsel René Cienciala added: "We have received a written confirmation that the player does not have to be included on the relevant player list by his national team in order for him to validly serve his suspension."

Q: curl works on localhost but it doesn't work remotely I wrote this small piece of code:
from flask import Flask
from flask_restful import Resource, Api
import subprocess

app = Flask(__name__)
api = Api(app)

class SlackReport(Resource):
    def get(self):

        subprocess.Popen(['python', 'ingestion_ice3_check.py'])

        return 'Request submitted'

api.add_resource(SlackReport, '/slackReport')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

If I execute:
curl --ipv4 http://127.0.0.1:5000/slackReport

the server sends the response but if I execute the same command from another machine in the same LAN I receive a 'connection refused' message
$ curl -X GET http://10.113.12.20:5000/slackReport
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 10.113.12.20 port 5000: Connection refused

If I request the resource from localhost I can see the request from the debug console of the server
127.0.0.1 - - [28/Sep/2017 18:15:02] "GET /slackReport HTTP/1.1" 200 -

However if I request the same resource from a remote machine I can see the packet on the port but the flask server doesn't receive anything.
$ sudo tcpdump -i ens192 port 5000
18:17:53.132514 IP 10.113.12.25.37096 > tl020dash.commplex-main: Flags [S], seq 3147843104, win 14600, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 822032144 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0

This is the output of netstat command
sudo netstat -tnlp | grep :5000
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:5000          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      21872/python

A: Your are running your service on localhost (127.0.0.1) so only your computer has access to it.  If you want to run that Flask service so other stuff on your network can access it you can set some keyword args when you run your app.  You might need to run this as an elevated user so it can bind to that network port (10.113.12.20:5000).
if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True, host='10.113.12.20', port=5000)

Police: DUI driver arrested after chase
by: WHTM Staff
A Lancaster County man is accused of driving under the influence when he led police on a chase straight to his home.
Charles E. Reedy III, 32, of Stevens, is charged with fleeing and eluding and DUI regarding the incident late Monday.
East Cocalico Township police said Reedy was doing "doughnuts" on the grass of a business in the first block of East Church Street. When officers tried to pull him over, he took off and the resulting pursuit reached speeds of about 70 mph.
Reedy ultimately pulled into his driveway and was placed into custody. He was taken for a blood test which he refused, police said.
He was sent to Lancaster County Prison on $50,000 bail pending additional charges.

Jerry Seinfeld performs at the very spot that put him on the map as a struggling young comic in the late 70s. A nostalgic look back at his early life and career in the New York City of the times, in all her gritty glory.
In the Netflix comedy special, Jerry Before Seinfeld, the legend himself returns to the NYC nightclub, The Comic Strip, for a walk down memory lane in which he shares old and new material, standing in front of the now-classic red brick wall. The film also contains vintage home movies and actual footage of his early work, including the seminal 1981 Tonight Show appearance which catapulted his career. It's a comforting and nostalgic memoir from one of the most successful entertainers in the world who has somehow managed to today reflect his hometown roots, stay normal, and still be very much the well adjusted kid from an average suburban family. It's also an intriguing procedural on the process of being funny. The devil's in the small stuff, as it turns out.
These days you can't throw a rock without hitting some show or documentary about the history or analysis of Comedy as an Art Form, and to further dissect it according to gender, religious affiliation, or political ideologies. But back when Jerry Seinfeld was just beginning to establish himself as a new talent to watch, his contemporaries weren't compartmentalizing themselves or their routines. People like Steve Martin, David Brenner, David Steinberg, Joan Rivers, Robert Klein, and Andy Kaufman were just plain funny. And when the show, Seinfeld, took off it was the perfect vehicle for the absurd observational humor the comedian had cultivated based on the small moments of family life, dating, jobs, etc. It, like the comedian himself and his routine, was also about living in New York City, a place chock full of 'characters' where all you had to do was look around and there was your comic material. The 'show about nothing' that found its hip young audience at the juncture between adolescence and adulthood, is now considered classic television. Jerry Before Seinfeld is a genial reminder of those days as well as a glimpse into the sheer industry and determination it took to master such an effortless style. This kid really did his homework.
Jerry Before Seinfeld is presently streaming on Netflix.
We watched this last night, Norma…laugh out loud brilliant! thanks for the recommendation!

Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Holdings to Join the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) Forum
Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Holdings Inc.
Coca-Cola Bottlers Japan Holdings Inc. has endorsed the initiatives of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and joined the TNFD Forum.
The TNFD was launched as a framework to follow the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) that properly assesses risks and opportunities related to natural capital and biodiversity. By encouraging financial institutions and companies to disclose their information, the TNFD promotes the development of a disclosure framework for nature-related risks in order to shift the flow of funds to Nature Positive, the global goal of halting the decline of biodiversity and moving toward recovery by 2030.
The CCBJH Group's environmental policy defines one of our important missions as making effective use of water and other natural resources. Such natural assets are indispensable to both our business activities and must be passed on to future generations in a sustainable manner. As a company that uses water for its business, it is essential to protect ecosystems such as forests, grasslands, and water sources. Our non-financial CSV Goals prioritize their efficient use, waste reduction, and replenishment. Based on these objectives, we have been making efforts to conserve and replenish water as well as sustain biodiversity in priority areas.We enter into agreements with local forestry cooperatives in all water source areas of our 17 plants. We conduct activities to preserve the environmental benefits of forests to the fullest and protect biodiversity for years to come.
Through our participation in this forum, the CCBJH Group will strengthen our efforts to sustain biodiversity and contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in our business areas, and aiming to realize a sustainable society.

About the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD)
The Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) was established to develop and provide a framework for integrated risk management and information disclosures that would enable organizations to report and take action on the constantly changing nature-related risks they face. Their ultimate goal is to help shift the global flow of finances from having a negative effect on nature to having a positive one. The 34 Taskforce members, with assets in excess of $19.4 trillion USD, are working with the TNFD Co-Chairs to develop the TNFD Framework. 16 Core Knowledge Partners, comprised of industry-leading scientific, standards development, and data organizations, are participating in the Taskforce's initiatives. More than 500 organizations support the taskforce as members of the TNFD Forum. By making this framework available in 2023, TNFD aims to enable organizations to report and act on the constantly changing nature-related risks they face. When provided with better information, financial institutions and companies will be able to factor nature-related risks and opportunities into their decision-making processes. The TNFD initiative was launched in September 2020 by four organizations: Global Canopy, the UNDP, the UNEPFI, and the WWF. After a nine-month preparatory phase, it started officially in June 2021. TNFD is funded by the United Kingdom, Australian, Swiss, and Dutch governments, the UNDP, the Global Environment Facility (GEF), and the Children's Investment Fund Foundation (CIFF).
