Um nuclídeo radiogênico (ou isótopo radiogênico) é um nuclídeo resultante de reações de decaimento nuclear. Certos isótopos são de natureza inteiramente radiogênica, em particular isótopos radioativos com meias-vidas muito curtas para serem capazes de existir como isótopos primordiais (desde a formação da Terra). Eles estão presentes apenas como produtos radiogênicos, ou de decaimentos radioativos que continuam ou de processos cosmogênicos (induzidos por raios cósmicos) que os formaram recentemente. Um exemplo é o ástato, cujo isótopo mais estável tem um período radioativo de 8,1 h. Assim, todos os isótopos do ástato são inteiramente radiogênicos, resultantes de decaimentos radioativos, o que também explica por que é o elemento mais raro naturalmente presente na Terra (a estimativa mais alta permanece abaixo de 30 g de ástato na Terra). Outro exemplo é o carbono-14 (14C), com um período radioativo de 5730 anos, não existindo como isótopo primordial, mas é encontrado na Terra, tanto como produto de determinados decaimentos radioativos (de origem natural assim como humana) e como resultado de processos cosmogênicos (a radiação cósmica induz a formação de 14C na atmosfera superior a partir do nitrogênio natural 14N).

Para isótopos radiogênicos que se desintegram muito lentamente (várias centenas de milhões de anos) ou que são estáveis, sempre existe uma fração primordial. Por exemplo, o chumbo 206Pb existe na natureza, tanto como um isótopo primordial (como é estável, uma fração do chumbo-206 existente está presente desde a formação da Terra) quanto como um isótopo radiogênico da cadeia de decaimento do urânio-238.

Uso

Os isótopos radiogênicos estão entre as ferramentas mais importantes da geologia, com dois usos principais:

 Em comparação com a quantidade de um isótopo radioativo original em um determinado sistema, a quantidade do produto radiogênico pode ser usada como uma ferramenta para datação radiométrica, por exemplo, na datação por urânio-chumbo.
 Em comparação com a quantidade de um isótopo não radiogênico do mesmo elemento, a quantidade do isótopo radiogênico é usada como um marcador isotópico, por exemplo 206Pb/204Pb. Este método é discutido detalhadamente no artigo de geoquímica isotópica.

Exemplos

Alguns isótopos de ocorrência natural são inteiramente radiogênicos, mas todos são isótopos radioativos, com meia-vida muito curta para ocorrer primordialmente. Assim, eles estão presentes apenas como filhos radiogênicos dos processos de decaimento em andamento, ou então processos cosmogênicos (induzidos por raios cósmicos) que os produzem na natureza recentemente. Alguns outros são produzidos naturalmente por processos nucleogênicos (reações nucleares naturais de outros tipos, como a absorção de nêutrons).

Para isótopos radiogênicos que decaem devagar o suficiente, ou que são isótopos estáveis, uma fração primordial está sempre presente, pois todos os isótopos estáveis e com vida útil suficiente ocorrem, de fato, naturalmente de forma primordial. Uma fração adicional de alguns desses isótopos também pode ocorrer radiogenicamente.

O argônio é outro exemplo de um elemento parcialmente radiogênico. De fato, 99,6% do argônio atmosférico é o isótopo radiogênico 40Ar, resultante do decaimento beta de 40K (potássio-40) naturalmente presente na crosta terrestre.

O chumbo possui quatro isótopos estáveis (Pb-204, Pb-206, Pb-207 e Pb-208), cujas quantidades primárias são encontradas em proporções fixas e conhecidas. No entanto, apenas o Pb-204 é completamente primordial; os outros três isótopos também são encontrados como produtos radiogênicos da decomposição do urânio e do tório. Ou seja, o Pb-206 é formado a partir de U-238, o Pb-207 de U-235, e Pb-208 de Th-232. As quantidades excessivas desses isótopos mais pesados permitem determinar a idade das rochas que contêm urânio e tório.

On August 8th, CHTM will be taking part in 'Banter on the Liffey', a night of chat and discussion organised by Jim Carroll of The Irish Times. It's all happening as part of the Liffey Legover Festival, and Sam will be joining Jim to talk about some of Dublin's famous (and infamous) musical venues historically. From Punk to Rave, Rock to New Wave, it's a fascinating subject that has featured on the site here plenty. It's one of three discussions Jim has organised. The other two see legendary DJ Tony Fenton discuss his career and life, and visual artist Fergal McCarthy discusses the River Liffey and how it has influenced his work. Some of you may remember the giant Monopoly homes floating in the Liffey!

Pay it Forward recognizes man who mentors kids in the Quad Cities
Posted 8:41 am, July 11, 2019, by Madison Conner
DAVENPORT, Iowa-- Matt McDowell is teaching kids how to become leaders, not followers.
"We talk with the kids and especially today it's about growth..it's all about growing when I was coming up you had wonder bread formative years 5-15 that's what we're doing teaching our young people here to grow," said Matt.
McDowell's worked with thousands of Quad City kids over the past thirty years. Volunteering at Friendly House, Family Resources and Camp Excel as well as inspiring others to get involved.
"He doesn't expect any kind of recognition whatsoever I know he works on a limited budget and he makes do with what he can," said Michael Doak. Seeing Matt's generosity gave Doak the idea to give back as well but this time to Matt.
"Mike, thank you for nominating Matt for Pay it Forward at Ascentra Credit Union our motto is listening, caring and doing what's right and Matt's generous spirit towards the youth in this community falls right into line with everything that motto stands for," said Travis Kershaw, with Ascentra Credit Union. "That's why we at Ascentra are proud to give you $300 so that you can Pay it Forward to him."
While Matt is finishing up a hard day at work at Camp Excel we gave him a heartfelt surprise.
"On behalf of WQAD and Ascentra Credit Union and the whole community, I'd like to present you with $300 from the Pay it Forward program," said Doak.
Matt doesn't do this work to be rewarded he does it for a brighter future.
"The old saying is you know the kids are our future but it's reality they are our future but you know I'm hoping and investing in them now so twenty years from now instead of pushing me in front of traffic, they'll help me across the street," said McDowell. Working to set a good example for the kids he mentors with the help of the people in his corner.
"We need more cheerleaders in our lives so that's why I'm glad I got plenty of cheerleaders," said McDowell.
If you know of someone doing good things in your community, someone who shows the core values of Ascentra Credit Union, which are Listening, Caring and Doing What's Right, nominate them for the Pay it Forward Contest here.

Tale of the tap: Philly's water-treatment plants are scientific marvels. So why can't our drinking water get any respect?
By Frank Kummer, The Philadelphia Inquirer, July 10, 2019
This article was originally published by The Philadelphia Inquirer
Commanded by the moon, high tides push 130 million gallons a day of raw Delaware River water under a nondescript building off State Road in Philadelphia's Torresdale section.
What looks like a shimmer of blue from a distance flows in as a brown broth of disintegrating leaves, chunks of trees, flopping fish, microbes, minerals, and chemicals. Little more than 24 hours later, that brew has become clear, safe drinking water. It then travels through 3,000 miles of water mains to 1.6 million people in homes, apartments, and businesses for consumption. If all the water mains were laid out end-to-end, they would run to Los Angeles.
The transformation and transportation of 230 million gallons of water a day from the Delaware and Schuylkill at three treatment plants is an engineering and scientific marvel that dramatically improved public health since chlorine was first added to the water here in 1920. Philadelphia's Water Department is often held up as an urban model, especially for its storm-water protection efforts.
Yet it can't get that kind of respect from the people the utility wants most to impress, its customers. Nearly 40 percent of city residents refuse to drink water from their taps, saying it tastes bad, or even is bad for them. The belief is especially strong in the poorer parts of America's poorest big city, where residents spend scarce dollars on the much more expensive option of bottled water.
Slightly more than half of residents rate the quality of their tap water as good, though some still admit they choose bottled. But just 15 percent rate it as excellent.
It's been almost a century since city water quality was measured by the number of people who died of typhoid fever transmitted through the water. Philadelphia has never faced a public health scandal like that in Flint, Mich., over lead contamination in the water.
Yet the water here long has been eyed with distrust and disdain by residents who fear heavy metal or chemical contamination — or just don't like it.
Marie Vega, who lives in North Philadelphia, prefers to spend $100 a month on bottled water rather than serve tap to her four kids. She says it makes her feel ill.
"It tastes nasty," said Vega, who set up a taste test on her front step to make her point to Inquirer journalists.
"I think we understand why [so many residents] aren't drinking it," said Nina Hoe Gallagher, director of Research & Evaluation, ImpactED at the University of Pennsylvania. "And a lot of the reasons are just a lack of trust."
But when it comes to water — essential to life — perception has profound implications, especially given what often underlies residents' concerns. A few examples:
Residents trade rumors about lead in the water, especially since the 2014 crisis in Flint. The two water systems aren't connected, yet worries persist, exacerbated after the Philadelphia School District began testing thousands of drinking fountains in 2016 and closed some down after the toxic metal was found to exceed federal standards. The problem was not what came out of the Water Department's plants, but lead in pipes that had never been replaced in aging schools. Yet that's a fine and even meaningless distinction to concerned parents.
A few miles north of the city, suburbanites struggle with chemical contamination in their groundwater, the legacy of fire-fighting foam used at military bases. Worried city water officials have started testing Philly's water, and early indications are that these chemicals are not a problem for Philadelphians. Yet residents can hardly miss the drumbeat of news about these health-threatening substances, which are even being found in processed foods.
The watershed that feeds the Delaware and Schuylkill is vast, encompassing 3,000 square miles of tributaries and streams. Too often, they are choked with trash, and bear evidence of runoff from busy roads. Residents who see such messes and know where their water comes from can't help but raise doubts.
Taste is, obviously, an individual thing. But tap water is one of the few products everybody gets to try, and many are not impressed, as bottled water use suggests. What's more, residents called the Water Department at least 1,127 times between 2014 and 2015 to complain about overall water quality, bad taste, or odor, an Inquirer analysis of the latest available data shows.
Winning back the trust
At a recent event at City Hall, a Water Department worker in a superhero cape extolled the virtues of tap to startled passers-by, some of whom expressed surprise that they liked the water samples they tried.
Penn's Hoe Gallagher is working with the Water Department, the advocacy group PennEnvironment, and the Water Center, also at Penn, on a project designed to persuade residents to drink tap. With funds from the William Penn Foundation, the group has hired water ambassadors — residents of the neighborhoods that eye their taps most skeptically — to spread the word in the Drink Philly Tap campaign.
But the Water Department is doing more than public relations to stamp out rumors and address issues that fuel real fears. It organizes stream cleanups to clear out unsightly trash, not the usual purview of a Water Department. It meets with other regional water companies to help ensure the quality of a river that starts 300 miles from Philadelphia.
At the heart of its mission: an enormous operation of three water treatment facilities with 2,000 employees, including scientists, technicians, and other workers charged with taking water from the Delaware and Schuylkill, and making it drinkable — and, to some customers, even tasty.
Though far larger and more sophisticated, the elements of the process are similar to what began in the United States in 1914 with the advent of chlorination. The biggest difference: The river is much cleaner, meaning it requires less cleanup, fewer treatment chemicals, and probably tastes better. But industrial chemicals and other pollutants still make their way into the water and must be kept below federal standards established after the Clean Water Act of 1972.
The Water Department has to comply with National Primary Drinking Water Regulations for more than 90 contaminants. It also has to follow secondary standards for 15 contaminants that aren't enforced but that have suggested levels. There is also a separate Lead and Copper rule.
The Environmental Working Group (EWG), a nonprofit that monitors water quality, said the latest data from 2018 found that Philly's tap water was in compliance with all federal health-based drinking-water standards, including lead. But it said 10 chemicals exceeded EWG's own recommended guidelines composed from a suite of sources and based on 2015 data, the latest the group had analyzed.
For example, Philadelphia reported a higher level of Atrazine, an herbicide usually found in agricultural runoff, in its water than EWG recommendations. But the level was within legal limits. The herbicide is a hormone disruptor that can harm male and female reproductive systems. The other compounds exceeding EWG's recommendations were linked to cancer and thyroid issues.
Maurice Sampson, eastern Pennsylvania director for the nonprofit Clean Water Action, sometimes lobs criticism at government officials but gives the Philadelphia Water Department good marks.
"We think that Philadelphia drinking-water quality is high," said Sampson, who lives in Mount Airy. "We have a full science lab that tests the water quality. Your smaller municipalities don't have that."
But he acknowledges the "Schuylkill punch tinge" — a flavor even some committed tap-water drinkers may describe as heavily chlorinated — can turn people off.
The science that feeds the tap
That kind of talk draws a wince from Abey John, a chemical engineer with degrees from Johns Hopkins and Villanova Universities, who manages the Baxter treatment plant complex, set adjacent to the greenery of Pleasant Hill Park. He, along with his counterparts at the Queen Lane and Belmont plants on the Schuylkill, is charged with making sure the water that leaves their plants is clean and clear.
River water gets to your faucet in a long journey that includes filters, doses of chlorine, and other chemicals. It gets tested, tasted, and sniffed.
On a tour of the plant, John points to the riverbank, where water from the Delaware comes in looking murky — what the experts call highly turbid. Turbidity is just one measure of water quality. Federal rules say drinking water has to be less than 1 nephelometric turbidity unit, known as NTU. The Schuylkill water often clocks in at 30 NTUs because it is fast flowing and picks up more sediments than the Delaware, which often runs about 10 NTUs. The Baxter plant usually reduces it to below 0.3, which is pretty clear.
Standing on the roof of the plant, John explains that turbidity gets reduced dramatically through multiple processes that also kill off bacteria and pathogens that could make people sick. The raw river water passes through an initial screen that keeps out fish and other aquatic life. It settles in a lagoon where big pieces of wood and leaves sink to the bottom. From there, it is pumped to a treatment building and dosed with chlorine. Further treatment in giant outdoor tanks culls out remaining solids in a process known as flocculation.
Transferred into a building the size of several suburban Walmarts, water is run through three-layered filters: The first is anthracite coal from Pennsylvania's mountains, then sand, then gravel. The filters are flushed and backwashed several times a day to keep them clean.
Throughout the process, scientists upstairs in the Baxter lab check the chemical composition of the water every three hours to ensure it is clean, safe — and hasn't had too many treatment chemicals added — before it is sent out to 750,000 customers in Northeast Philadelphia and Lower Bucks County.
'Start from a positive conversation'
About six miles away, Gary Burlingame, director of the Water Department's Bureau of Laboratory Services sits in an office decorated with an old chart showing the number of Philadelphians who died from typhoid fever, mostly in the 19th century, but even a bit into the 20th century. Deaths plummeted after the city began dosing its water with chlorine, the naturally occurring element first used as a disinfectant 200 years ago in France.
The chart is a constant reminder to Burlingame of the important work at his lab, where "nothing gets to be a level where it's a big concern."
The lab leads several in a system that employs 116 chemists, biologists, and engineers focused on drinking-water quality. As science learns more about what can go wrong with water, the testing has grown more sophisticated. Just one piece of testing equipment, a liquid chromatograph in the organics lab, costs $250,000.
"We're trying to start from a positive conversation," Burlingame says.
Burlingame, a Drexel graduate, boasts that the Water Department is now one of the biggest users of Drexel interns. They test the water for E. coli, cryptosporidium, alkalinity, and mineral content. Scientists look for pharmaceuticals that might be in the water from people who flush them down toilets.
They look for metals (such as lead), fertilizer, sodium, and even caffeine content.
"These are way below any harmful levels," Burlingame says.
Ralph Rogers, a project manager, has built a water-quality monitoring system that provides real-time data from 40 stations around the city. The stations are equipped with sensors that pick up and relay the information to the lab. Rogers can look at an array of gauges he's installed in what looks like a large metal cabinet filled with water lines, digital readouts, and a computer.
The lab also tests iron water mains, some of which can be 100 years old, for corrosion. One to two fail on average each week and can cause brown water at a home.
Proud as he is of his agency's science, Burlingame has seen his duties expand beyond the lab in response to his water's image problem. He doesn't just run the lab, he gets the word out by talking to customers, through books he's written, newsletters, and industry articles. The water is examined often, he said, and tests are run "thousands of times a month."
Burlingame says a strength of Philly water is in its "ingredients": a mix of minerals beneficial to bread- and beer-making.
In the end, Burlingame, who also lives in the city and drinks the water, says the lab has one real goal: "We want to help our customers."
Leon Sanford, 28, a North Philadelphia resident and prep cook, is one of the department's new water ambassadors who all receive training from the Water Department and Hoe Gallagher's group so they can explain why the water is good to drink. Sanford has personal experience to add to that, since he grew up drinking Philly tap water.
Friends, he said, ask him all the time if it's really safe.
He keeps it simple: "I say: 'Yes, it's safe.' "

How do Philadelphians feel about their water? Everything from 'nasty' to not bad
The Delaware: The river that made Philadelphia


Gel Shoe V Men's lyte Asics Ink Running Indian fxnpn5R ⋆ Gel Ink ⋆ Fountain pen. Calligraphy.
San Francisco's Rent Ordinance generally enables tenants to exchange departing roommates and/in order to increase the amount of occupants residing in the system, even if prohibited with a written lease. However, nothing within the Rent Ordinance enables a tenant to sublet or assign the whole unit to a different tenant in breach of the lease, in order to sublet the system for tourist or transient use as defined for the short term Rental Ordinance for under thirty days (See Admin. Code Section 41A.5).
Tenants with written lease contracts are required to follow the procedures described herein to get the landlord's approval before moving a brand new occupant in to the unit. However, if there's no written lease deal for the tenancy, or maybe the agreement is silent around the issue of subletting and doesn't incorporate a limit on the amount of occupants, a tenant isn't needed to get the landlord's approval before moving a brand new occupant in to the unit and also the following procedures don't apply.
What steps must a tenant follow to get the landlord's consent?
The steps for acquiring a landlord's consent to a different occupant include strict deadlines that must definitely be adopted by tenants and landlords. First, the tenant must create a written request towards the landlord for permission to maneuver the brand new occupant in to the unit. The written request may be sent to the owner personally, through email, or by regular mail.
The owner has fourteen days from delivery of the tenant's written request to approve or deny the request the suggested new occupant. The landlord's denial of the tenant's request should be on paper having a description from the causes of the denial, including specific details supporting the reason why for that denial. When the landlord doesn't react to the tenant's request within fourteen days or unreasonably denies the tenant's request, the request is considered approved legally and also the tenant can't be evicted for moving the brand new occupant in to the unit with no landlord's prior consent.
How do you count the 14 days?
Example: The tenant constitutes a written request on Ink Gel Men's Indian lyte Running Footwear V Asics the first day's the month to exchange a departing roommate in order to add yet another member of the family or any other additional occupant towards the unit.
When the tenant's written request is sent to the owner personally, the request is recognized as received through the landlord around the date of delivery (the first) and also the landlord has before the 15th to reply.
When the request is delivered by email, the request is recognized as received after 2 days (the next) and also the landlord has before the 17th to reply.
Ink Gel Running Footwear Asics lyte Men's V Indian When the request is delivered by mail, the request is recognized as received 5 days following the postmark date (the sixth) and also the landlord has before the 20th to reply.
Can the owner request any details about the suggested new occupant?
Within 5 days of delivery of the tenant's written request, the owner may need the tenant to submit a completed standard form application for that suggested new occupant in order to provide sufficient details about the brand new occupant to permit the owner to conduct an average criminal record check, including complete name, birth date and references if requested. As the landlord may need the new occupant meet your regular, reasonable application standards, and agree on paper to become bound through the current rental agreement between your landlord and tenant, creditworthiness might not be the foundation for denial from the tenant's request for the next occupant when the additional occupant won't be legally obligated to pay for some or all the rent towards the landlord. Thus, in which the tenant demands the landlord's consent for any new occupant who'll never pay rent straight to the owner, like a subtenant, the owner might not require credit or earnings information included in the application or criminal record check.
When the landlord constitutes a timely request information in the suggested new occupant, the tenant then has five calendar days after delivery of the landlord's request to supply the owner using the suggested new occupant's application or typical criminal record check information. The 5-day period starts to run at the time after actual receipt from the landlord's request through the tenant. When the tenant doesn't respond inside the five-day period, the owner can deny the tenant's request with that basis. The tenant may then create a new written request towards the landlord for any new occupant and also the 14-day timeline starts over.
When can a landlord deny a request a brand new occupant?
Shoe Men's lyte V Gel Running Indian Asics Ink in which the suggested new occupant is going to be legally obligated to pay for some or all the rent towards the landlord and also the landlord can establish the new occupant lacks creditworthiness.
in which the landlord designed a timely request the suggested new occupant to accomplish the landlord's standard form application in order to provide sufficient information to permit the owner to conduct an average criminal record check and also the new occupant doesn't comply within five calendar times of actual receipt through the tenant from the landlord's request.

Salim Dada (, born 7 May 1975) is an Algerian composer, musician, and musicologist.

Biography
Dada was born in Laghouat.

Salim Dada learned to play classical guitar and the oud, contrabass, mandole, kwitra and percussion. He also studied harmony, Western and Eastern musical theory, and presented several works for guitar solo and small ensembles. Between 2002 and 2005 he prepared a cycle of musical writing (harmony, counterpoint and analysis) in school of distance learning polyphonies with the composer Jean-Luc Kuczynski in France, and the Institute National Supérieur de la Musique in Algiers in the class of the academician Golnara Bouyagoub. He also studied medicine and obtained a medical degree from the Faculty of Medicine in Algiers in 2005.

His nomination in 2007 as a Composer-in-Residence with the Algerian National Symphony Orchestra allowed him to create seven compositions and conduct 30 concerts in two years. The music catalogue of Salim Dada spans twenty symphonic works, a dozen scores for strings and chamber music and numerous pages for solo musicians (guitar, piano, harpsichord, saxophone, violin, etc.). He also has composed for voice and instruments of traditional Arab music and for film and theatre.

A composer-member of SACEM, his compositions won awards in competitions and were presented at events such as the 57th Bayreuth Festival Junger Künstler in 2007, festival of the Euro-Mediterranean Youth Orchestra in Damascus in 2008, the 7th Arab composers festival "Arab Perspectives" in Cairo, Settembre Musica "MITO 2009" at Milano, "PAN 6" in Amsterdam. In 2010, Terrassa48's tour in Catalonia "Enmig de terra; la Mediterrània", 3rd International Festival of Cultural Diversity at UNESCO, Paris, 4th Perinaldo Festival and Festival "Est Ovest" in Italy.

'Just One of the Guys?: Transgender Men and the Persistence of Gender Inequality' by Kristen Schilt
Review by Branden Boyer-White
2011 Lambda Literary Award Finalist
Working at a non-profit in the early 2000's, Kristen Schilt was struck by the mystified gossip surrounding a staff member who had transitioned. Sensing a larger story, she spent the next few years interviewing over fifty transmen in California and Texas from a variety of jobs about their experiences in the workplace.
The interviews are the heart of Just One of the Guys?:Transgender Men and the Persistence of Gender Inequality (The University of Chicago Press), and as they reveal what it means to live and work as a transman, the accounts also tell the greater story Schilt sensed—the men's unique biographies testify to the difference between navigating the workplace as a woman and a man.
Schilt is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of Chicago, and the caveat for this book is that it is an academic text—a sociological ethnography that sifts Schilt's field research (the interviews) through a conceptual analysis. Yet it is to Schilt's credit that Guys is rewardingly readable. She navigates a rich theoretical discussion without letting her sentences lapse into inscrutable density, and her pacing through the material is brisk, her tone bright yet serious.
What should compel any reader to pick up the book is the testimony of the interviewed about their treatment as women, men, and transmen in the workplace. Schilt lets the men speak for themselves, her own voice and theoretical agenda gracefully receding to serve as a platform for their voices, emerging only to give us reminders of the patterns we should track in their accounts. It is a refreshing change in a culture that seems bent on telling transpeople's stories for them and to them (further evidence of this fact is provided in Schilt's opening chapter, an engaging, succinct history of "trans" in the context of its medicalization and the queer and feminist movements).
What the men reveal is as inevitable as it is stunning: gender inequity and discrimination in the workplace is alive and well. In case after case, the interviewed discover that they are taken more seriously and given more opportunities (and sometimes, bigger paychecks) when they are understood to be men. As one transman reports, '"A woman would make a comment…and be overlooked and be dissed essentially. I would raise my hand and make the same point in a way that I am trying to reinforce her, and it would be like [directed at me], 'That's an excellent point!'… it is not like it was a surprise. But it was disconcerting to have happen to me.'" Another man told Schilt a story about an associate who congratulated his boss for "firing 'Susan' because she was incompetent" and hiring the more skilled "new guy": "The punchline of this anecdote is that Susan and the new guy were the same person."
However, the book is not a simplified Mad Men-esque portrait of oppressed women and oppressive men. Rather, what is most fascinating and important is what the transmen's experiences reveal about the complication of identities, boundaries, and inequality. They point out the ways that women themselves police gender boundaries and perpetuate ideas of female incompetence by suddenly asking their newly transitioned co-workers to lift boxes. We read striking testimonies by men of color who bear witness to the criminalization of black males—"I went from being an obnoxious black woman to a scary black man"—revealing the inseparability of gender from race.
The LGBT community may also feel called upon to do some soul-searching after reading the stories Schilt has presented, as many of the men are shocked by prejudice from queer co-workers. "You would think that people in the gay community… would not necessarily treat other people in the queer and trans community poorly," one interviewee notes. "But that was just one of those things where I was, like, 'Well, I guess shit flows downhill!'" Schilt allows such moments to speak for themselves, and rather than refereeing, she treats every account with an even hand, pointing out that as flawed as individual action can be, it arises in the context of structural schemes that are larger than any one person.
Though the book started from gossip, Just One of the Guys? is a rare account of transgendered lives that is honest and detailed without slipping into voyeurism or sensationalism. Schilt is careful and respectful in her analysis—she never lets her own claims get ahead of her data, and though outrage and a call to arms simmers beneath the surface of her text, the reader comes away having experienced not Schilt's opinion, but the reality of gender inequality. The result is that the evidence speaks for itself, and is that much more effective.

24 Preludes for piano, Op. 39 - Prelude No. 3 in G major
A set of 24 modern-classical preludes for piano, very different in character, style and difficulty, but overall interesting for the pianist and the audience. Preludes must be little jewels and I hope they are. The last changes are, besides some minor changes, that in 2021 the Nos. 20 and 21 have been replaced, this makes the set now definitive. My personal favourites are Nos. 12 and 22 (the dodecaphonic one). Please enjoy the digital recording made in Sibelius 6 with Garritan Personal Orchestra. This digital performance is also uploaded on my YouTube-channel with the score moving; feel free to make a comment there.

Washington Redskins to alter title new name to appear later
The staff did not say when a new title will be chosen, and "Redskins" will not be taken out right away. The club's website stays Redskins.com, the NFL's official web page even now refers to the workforce as the "Washington Redskins," and Monday's news launch was despatched on Redskins letterhead. A human being with know-how of the scenario mentioned the workforce plans to use Redskins until finally a new title is selected, though it is considering other solutions, including the likelihood of a generic non permanent identify this sort of as "Washington Soccer Club."
But the announcement was nevertheless satisfied with approval by many longtime critics of the title. Rep. Betty McCollum (D-Minn.), who has known as for the franchise to transform its title, said Snyder's final decision was "long overdue" but "welcome." The organization Rebrand Washington Soccer issued a assertion expressing it "applauds" Monday's transfer.
D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) and Eleanor Holmes Norton, the District's nonvoting delegate to the Household of Reps, also expressed enjoyment with the team's decision. Both equally are significant to Snyder at some point finding a new stadium in the city, the place the D.C. Council and some Property leaders had opposed allowing Snyder build on the RFK Stadium website as very long as the workforce was identified as the Redskins and had expressed uncertainties the workforce could return without the need of a name alter.
Norton (D) reported in a cellular phone job interview that the team's transfer "reflects the current weather of intolerance to names, statues, figments of our previous that are racist in character or or else suggest racism."
At a news meeting, Bowser reiterated her drive to have the soccer stadium in the District: "Washington's football group should be taking part in in Washington," she explained.
The Redskins' announcement arrives a little a lot more than a 7 days right after the organization produced a assertion expressing it would be enterprise a "thorough review" of its title, a course of action the crew said in Monday's announcement has "begun in earnest." In an job interview July 4, Mentor Ron Rivera — who is doing work with Snyder to decide on the new name — claimed he hoped just one would be in put by the start out of the 2020 year. Other individuals have claimed it could be uncovered in two months.

On Sunday, two people today with expertise of the team's programs mentioned that the most well-liked alternative title has been held up by trademark problems, which is why the workforce couldn't announce the new title Monday.
"As aspect of this [review] procedure, we want to keep our sponsors, enthusiasts and community apprised of our imagining as we go forward," the group explained in its assertion. "Today, we are announcing we will be retiring the Redskins name and logo upon completion of this critique."
The assertion also claimed Snyder and Rivera "are working closely to produce a new identify and design strategy that will boost the standing of our proud, tradition wealthy franchise and inspire our sponsors, lovers and community for the subsequent 100 several years."
In the July 4 interview, Rivera mentioned he and Snyder had occur up with two names that Rivera genuinely preferred. He did not expose the names, but stated he preferred to confer with Indigenous American and military services corporations to make certain that the new title thoroughly honored equally.
In its statement, Rebrand Washington Soccer cautioned towards the staff using a identify that refers to Indigenous American tradition, saying that accomplishing so "would only perpetuate racist imagery that the improve would purpose to get rid of." According to two men and women familiar with the team's thinking, the new name will not incorporate Indigenous American imagery.
The decision to alter the 87-12 months-old workforce title comes amid the broader nationwide discussion of race and mounting pressure on the franchise from corporate sponsors. In the social uprising that followed George Floyd's dying in Minneapolis on Memorial Working day, with businesses and governments all around the region eliminating logos and symbols regarded as to be offensive, the force to fall the previous name — such as by some of the franchise's most crucial sponsors — grew to become far too good.

On July 2, FedEx — 1 of the franchise's major sponsors and the holder of its stadium's naming legal rights — produced a assertion inquiring the workforce to change its name. It also sent a letter to group lawyers saying it would terminate the naming rights deal and not pay out the contract's remaining $45 million if Snyder did not adjust the crew identify. Other sponsors, which includes PepsiCo, Nike and Lender of America, built similar calls for.
"I imagine we owe a lot to FedEx and the PepsiCo and Financial institution of America and the relaxation of the sponsors who sent a concept cloaked in bucks and cents that [Snyder] had to do this," Norton mentioned.
"Let's not child ourselves. Income talks at the stop of the working day," David Glass, president of the National Coalition Towards Racism in Athletics and Media, claimed in a phone job interview. His business has lobbied for the Redskins to modify their identify above the several years. "Our initiatives have experienced an influence on FedEx, Nike, PepsiCo and some of the minority shareholders. Owning acknowledged that, we will take the congrats and revel in the change with extra to occur."
Glass extra: "[Snyder is] getting pressured to do it. But we will nonetheless get it."
At the very least a single of Snyder's outside the house advisers urged him to deal with the title problem in the times soon after Floyd's dying, a person with immediate information of the plea explained. Shortly soon after, Snyder seemingly began confronting the truth of a title alter. Rivera explained in the July 4 interview that he experienced been performing with Snyder on the title alter procedure considering that late May possibly or early June, including that NFL officials commenced advising Snyder on the difficulty in mid-June.

Identify modifications are complicated procedures, and Washington faces a serious problem in instituting the new identify prior to its Sept. 13 period-opening game from Philadelphia. In addition to creating new helmets and uniforms, it have to pull the phrase "Redskins" from signs at the team's Ashburn follow facility and all over FedEx Industry. A media guide, about to go to the printers, should have the previous name eliminated from 500 web pages of form. Even the formal club handle, 21300 Redskins Park Travel, has to be altered.
It is a massive changeover on quite a few levels — 1 that some have needed for decades yet nonetheless appeared unlikely just a number of months ago.
"We're heading through a little something of a peaceful revolution," Norton explained. "We owe that to the tragic loss of life of George Floyd. Out of that dying has come a reexamination of every little thing — such as names that several of us have long tried using to get adjusted and now are forcing the operator to improve."
