Brendan Steele shot a three-under round of 69 to clinch the Safeway Open trophy for the second year in a row.
Starting the final round in third place, the American rallied on the front nine, not dropping a single shot and claiming three birdies by the halfway mark.
An equally impressive performance on the 16th and a staggering 369-yard drive on the 18th led to two more birdies on the par-5 holes — and his third PGA Tour title.
The 34-year-old finished the competition 15-under and two strokes ahead of Tony Finau.
The 28-year-old Finau claimed an eagle on the par-5 fifth hole, meaning the fellow Americans went into the back nine in a tied position.
But a double-bogey on the par-4 14th meant he could not chase down Steele, ending the first PGA Tour event of the season 13-under.
Tyler Duncan, who surprised many by going into the final day in pole position, could not hold on to his one-shot lead as the chasing pack came to the fore.
Two birdies on the front nine were overshadowed by three bogeys on the opening three holes and two more on the 7th and 8th holes.
A more steady performance on the back nine was not enough to lift the PGA rookie, who ended the event 11-under, and in joint fifth position with Graham DeLaet.
Meanwhile, PGA veteran Phil Mickelson, who has won 42 events, finished in third place, with three bogeys spoiling his round.
One of the big movers on day three, the 47-year-old birdied on the par-5 16th to close in on Steele.
He was one shot adrift but a bogey on the 17th left him with too much to do, seeing out the day two-under 70 and 12-under overall.
Scot Martin Laird finished within the top 20 in joint 17th after an up-and-down performance, going round in 74 on the final day in Napa, California.

Family perceptions of worry, symptoms, and suffering in the dying
Susan E. Hickman, Virginia Tilden, Susan Tolle
Center for Ethics
In this exploratory study, family members of 63 decedents were interviewed by telephone, two to five months post-death, about their perceptions of their loved one's worries, symptoms, and suffering at the end of life. The most common worries reported focused on loss of bodily function (44%), being dependent (40%), and being a burden (39%). Distressing physical and psychological symptoms were reported. A majority (94%) of family members reported that their loved one suffered at the end of life, but only worries about loss of quality of life (e.g., being unable to participate in enjoyable activities) were predictive of reports of suffering. Findings suggest that worries, irrespective of the level of current symptoms, play an important role in the suffering of dying patients, and that treatment plans for the terminally ill should routinely explore both symptoms and worries.

Michigan governor: Project offers roadmap on infrastructure
By Associated Press • May 7, 2018
Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder says a pilot project has provided a roadmap on how the state can establish a statewide asset management system to better manage roads, water pipelines and other infrastructure.
Among the recommendations are ensuring that all participants in a database receive a benefit for participating and creating a permanent Michigan Infrastructure Council to oversee planning and mapping.
Snyder announced the results of the regional pilot late last week with local leaders in Grand Rapids. He says it covered 55 percent of Michigan's urban, suburban and rural population.
Asset management in a process by which infrastructure is inventoried and assessed so coordination results in fewer interruptions for the public and saves money.
Michigan has more than 3,350 different infrastructure asset owners, and planning and funding often aren't coordinated.
Senate panel OKs $175M for roads, $1M for AG's probe of MSU
By Associated Press • Mar 1, 2018
A bill that would infuse $175 million more into Michigan roads and bridge this year has taken another step forward in the Legislature.
A Senate committee voted 16-0 Wednesday to send the supplemental budget legislation to the full Senate, which is expected to vote Thursday.
Michigan roads and bridges need billions, says report
By Daniel Boothe • Apr 7, 2017
A report released this week says billions of dollars are needed to fix Michigan's Roads and bridges in addition to what state government has already pledged. In 2015 Gov. Rick Snyder signed a $1.2-billion road funding package that raised fuel taxes and registration fees and also takes $600 million a year from the state's general fund to fix and maintain Michigan's crumbling roads and bridges.
Kalamazoo mistakenly gets 53 years of state funding for road
By Associated Press • Sep 15, 2016
city of Kalamazoo / kalamazoocity.org
A section of road slightly longer than a football field has mistakenly earned Kalamazoo 53 years of state funding.
Kalamazoo Deputy City Manager Jeff Chamberlain tells MLive that an inaccessible section of Crane Avenue near Crane Park was wrongly certified as a public road in 1963.
The road's status is at the center of a conflict between residents who use it as the only safe way to access their condominium development and city officials who believe it should stay closed to traffic.
The 350-foot segment earned Kalamazoo $192 in local street funding this year.
M-6 crumbling near Grand Rapids years ahead of schedule

State highway officials say concrete is crumbling on a three-mile stretch of the M-6 freeway south of Grand Rapids years before it should've started deteriorating.
Michigan Department of Transportation spokesman John Richard tells WOOD-TV that transportation officials are blaming the failure on a shortage in the natural resin used in highway concrete when the freeway was built about a dozen years ago.
He says crews were forced to use synthetic resin on the project.
Commission would help guide Michigan infrastructure spending
By Associated Press • Mar 10, 2016
A new commission would make recommendations on how Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder's proposed $165 million for infrastructure fixes might be spent.
Snyder signed an executive order Thursday to create the 21st Century Infrastructure Commission.
His office says that if the Legislature approves his budget proposal, the commission would help determine how some money is spent on transportation, water, sewer, energy, and communications infrastructure.
Snyder announced plans to create the commission during his State of the State address in January.
Infrastructure report: Michigan should spend $4B more a year
By Associated Press • Dec 5, 2016
Michigan Radio
A report ordered by Gov. Rick Snyder says Michigan must spend $4 billion more annually to upgrade infrastructure that includes roads, water systems and the power grid.
The study released Monday says the state and local governments spend less than the U.S. average and in surrounding states. Snyder, who appointed the commission in the wake of the Flint water crisis, says Michigan's "infrastructure challenges are serious and wide-ranging" and it must "act with urgency."

The Houghton school announced Monday that the Region 5 center is accompanied by a 6-year grant of up to $5.6 million.
The region covers Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. EPA officials plan to visit Michigan Tech Tuesday and Wednesday.
The university is home to the School of Business and Economics and the Great Lakes Research Center.
Grand Rapids proposal could halve interest costs on leaded line removal
By Hilary Farrell • Mar 15, 2016
grcity.us
A change in interest rates may save Grand Rapids homeowners hundreds of dollars on their portion of lead service line replacement.
Under the amendment, interest would drop to about half of the city's current 7 percent rate.
The rate would instead be pegged to a municipal bond index. That's currently at about 3.4 percent; a year ago, it was 3.7 percent.
Grand Rapids has about 17,000 leaded service line leads in the city. City spokesperson Steve Guitar says the number of impacted properties would be roughly equal.
Senators reach tentative deal on Flint water crisis aid
By Associated Press • Feb 24, 2016
Senators from both parties have reached a tentative deal to address a water crisis in Flint, Michigan, and allow a long-stalled energy bill to move forward.
A proposal by Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow of Michigan and Republican Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma would authorize $100 million in emergency aid to fix and replace the city's lead-contaminated pipes, as well as $70 million in loans to improve its water infrastructure.
The deal also authorizes $50 million nationwide to bolster lead-prevention programs and improve children's health.

The trial of six Ballymena youths facing charges arising out of the sectarian murder of Catholic schoolboy Michael 'Mickey Bo' McIlveen in May 2006 was dramatically halted and the jury dismissed yesterday [Thursday].
The 15-year-old was set upon by a loyalist mob in May 2006 as he returned home from a pizza parlour in the County Antrim town.
The loyalists chased the teenager and cornered him in an alleyway, where they beat him about the head and body, leaving him seriously injured.
He died in hospital less than two days later.
The Antrim Crown Court jury of eight women and four men were told this week that "as a result of certain matters which have arisen", they were being discharged them from any further involvement in the 27-day trial.
The judge has refused to say what prompted his decision to dismiss the jury. The case has now been adjourned until November 10 when a new jury will be sworn in.
This is the second dramatic turn of events to overtake the running of the case.
Within days of it first opening, one of the original accused, 20-year-old Mervyn Wilson Moon from Douglas Terrace, Ballymena, pleaded guilty to his involvement in the murder of the 15-year-old.
Moon, who faces life imprisonment has been remanded back into custody to await sentence at the end of the retrial of his five former co-accused, all of whom deny the murder.
The lengthy trial had heard how the schoolboy begged a friend for help moments before he and friends were chased and attacked in an alleyway by Moon and others shouting sectarian abuse on May 7 2006.
His family, including his mother Gina, sat through days of graphic evidence which described how Michael became separated from his friends and was set upon by the loyalist gang.
Now the trial will have to begin again next month.

Q: Is there any limit on the size of data that can be stored in Spring Integration message header I have a requirement where I need to store a List of records in to Spring integration message header, so that it can be used later in the flow. This list can grow up to 100,000 records.
I would like to know is there a limit on the size of data which can be stored in spring integration header?
Also is there any alternative approach which can be taken to fulfill this requirement for ex: claim check usage etc.
Thanks.

A: If you don't do any persistence in between or don't propagate the message over messaging middleware (Kafka, JMS etc.), then all the data are in the memory and you definitely is just limited to what you have dedicated to JVM heap. So, if keeping those huge objects in the memory is the problem, then indeed a Claim Check is a good pattern to follow. This way the whole message is serialized to the external MessageStore which can restore later on via returned claim check key.

Exhibition: Basel 1981, Niklaus Hasenböhler. Schweizerische Schiffahrtsschule, 13 - 20 August.
Literature: Hasenböhler-Dill, Doris, a.o. (ed.): Niklaus Hasenböhler. Niklaus Hasenböhler 1937-1994. Das Gesamtwerk, Basel 1997, no. 156.
The artist Niklaus Hasenböhler, originally from Basel, had a classical education at the Basel School of Applied Arts. He won a place in three important exhibitions, at the Basel Kunsthalle in 1961 and 1972 and a solo show in 1985, which furthered his career decisively. Since these exhibitions he also received official commissions from the Canton of Basel and individual works were purchased. Since 1977 he has worked regularly in Paris where he owns a studio.
In his work Hasenböhler would like to bring figurative painting back to the centre of things. The object has a quite definite place in his art. At the same time there is a certain tendency towards abstraction in the manner of Franz Kline or Wilhelm de Kooning, whose painting he got to know during his stays in Paris. At the beginning of the 1980s he found his own style, which is a mixture of virtuoso strokes and radical methods. His favourite motifs such as slaughterhouses or prostitution appear again and again in his work. His painting is focussed on people, animals or other beings. The effect of his colours plays a great role and backs up the intensity of his works. He prefers to use charcoal.
Society and its extremes interest him. It is therefore hard to tell whether he is fascinated by that life, or whether he observes as a critic. The works by Hasenböhler offered here at auction are typical examples of his most creative phase. The hectic gestures and the intense colours are blatant and lend the scenes great intensity.

Filmmaker Forum > Main > Financing > Get a loan from a bank for a film?
View Full Version : Get a loan from a bank for a film?
Has anyone ever gotten a loan from the bank to make a movie?
Did they take you seriously?
Did you have to lie about what you would use it for, then you put it towards a film?
#1 Rule in making a movie - NEVER, LIKE EVER use your own money. Get into a kick starter campaign. Get investors, but do not in any way, shape or form take money out to make a movie. Investors will write off any bad debt. If you take a loan, you're stuck paying off your own loan.
Yeah, the only reason you would ever want to get a bank loan, would be against a pre-sale from an entertainment bank, and in that case your movie would have to be bonded by a completion guarantor, and you would not be personally taking the loan, and there would be no risk for you personally.
I'm sure there are horror stories out there of filmmakers who have taken personal loans to produce a movie, and success stories as well, but most independent movies don't make a cent of profit.
Banks don't give out loans for movie projects, so it would have to be a personal loan. Only a handful of entertainment banks deal with production loans, and like I wrote earlier, in most cases they only loan against a pre-sale.
If you have to use your own money, then use your savings, anything you are willing to lose, because chances are high that you will not make anything back.


Ozone therapy has many useful applications – including holistic dentistry. Ozone is a molecule that consists of three oxygen atoms. To put this into layman terms, this simply translates into high-energy oxygen.
Dr. David Villarreal utilizes ozone in almost every procedure. Why? Because it is natural, pure, and effective in the holistic approach to dentistry we believe in.
Ozone is merely just oxygen, nothing more, nothing less. There are no other chemicals involved with ozone. As a result, there are no side effects, medical contradictions, or interferences.
Dr. Villarreal has been thoroughly trained to utilize a highly advanced ozone generator that creates ozone gas or water for use in all of our holistic procedures including natural teeth cleanings and mercury amalgam filling removal. There is no pain involved in ozone therapy as it is considered a minimally invasive treatment method.
There are a handful of benefits ozone therapy provides in the use of holistic dentistry.
Rest assured that you will be in good hands @ BioDental Healing as we only endorse holistic techniques that are not only great for your teeth and gums, but for your body as a whole. That's the holistic difference.

Q: Is there a Confluence macro for last modified separated Page Sections, paragraphs and elements? Recently we had the following problem:
The article includes several sections which are very important for my colleagues from three different departments.
According to my colleagues - the article is updated properly, except for one vital section which hasn't been updated for more that three months.
Default 'last modified' page block displays that the most recent update took place two weeks ago and our new colleagues had no idea about the section which hasn't been touched by the author for more than three months, which caused some issues.
Is there a way to create a macro which displays the most recent update for the selected section of the page? For example:

*

*entire page - last modified on Jun 06, 2019;

*selected section - last modified on Apr 03, 2019.

We need to use similar functionality like here and also here , but the macro body should be able to select a section of the page (a paragraph or a table for example).
Confluence/Server.
Thank you.

A: This is probably not possible (not the easy way you would like to have it implemented).
Except some heavy scripting (ScriptRunner for Confluence) or custom addon development, the only easy way is the following:

*

*Try to move these 3 sections into 3 separate sub-pages and link them the main (parent) page - using Page Include macro.

*On top of each section you may add information (custom macro) about last subpage updated date.

However, this solution has its pros & cons:

*

*(+) out of the box solution

*(+) you can further restrict pages who can and cannot edit the subpages (sections)

*(-) you need to script custom user macro to display the last page update of different page than current (should be easy)

*(-) teams will have to edit subpages instead of the main page (a simple process change)

Alternatively, you can check with StiltSoft and their InPlace Editor - this addon works with section and it would be interesting to let them ask if they are open to implement your requested functionality.


With loads of veggies and protein-packed Toasted Quinoa, these enchiladas hit the spot without weighing you down. Instead of cheese, we're using heart-healthy avocados for some silky texture and fat. Throw these together for Meatless Monday, or any day!
In pot with a fitted lid, heat olive oil over medium flame. Add spices and onion, saute until onion softens (3-4 minutes).
Add mushrooms, black beans, squash, jalapeno, and Toasted Quinoa. Stir.
Add water, then place lid on pot and simmer on low heat for 15 minutes.
While that simmers, place the chipotle pepper in a bowl and use a potato masher or fork to mash it. Add maple syrup, garlic powder, sea salt and tomato sauce. Use the same masher to mash it all together.
Spread some of the sauce in the bottom of an 8" square baking pan. Place a tortilla in the pan. Add some filling, and roll so that the seam is down.
Continue until the pan is filled with rolled, filled tortillas. Cover with the remaining sauce.

Kiwis first … but obviously not Kiwi performers
New Zealand performers have today expressed their shock and disappointment over the decision to allow a US performer to enter the country and take work away from a New Zealander.
Under New Zealand's immigration laws, every film or television production wishing to import a performer needs to meet strict guidelines that are designed to ensure New Zealand performers are provided with opportunities to work on all productions.
Yesterday the Government took the unprecedented step to allow the relatively unknown US actor Vincent Gallo to enter the country and work on a Steinlager Pure television commercial for New Zealand audiences being shot in Queenstown this week.

SAG Global One
SAG has recently written to NZ agents asking them to pass on information about its Global Rule 1 to any performers who are members of SAG. Under this rule, SAG members working on a production in NZ need to be engaged by a production company on either a SAG agreement or on an MEAA agreement before commencing work. To see SAG's correspondence with agents click here. For further clarification contact Frances Walsh.
Have Your Say on Casting
Casting directors have asked Equity for our views on their draft casting guidelines which are available here. The National Performers' Committee is considering the document but before we respond we are keen to know your views. Some points raised by NPC are set out in a discussion document found here. Over the next week we'd like to get your comments on the document so that we can go back to the casting directors with comprehensive recommendations. You can either email Frances at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or phone her on (09) 360 1980 or 0800 334470.
NZ Equity Standard Contracts
In Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada and America performers have standard contracts, which include minimum working conditions, and residuals on screen work. These contracts are negotiated between the performers' unions such as British Equity and the Screen Actors' Guild (SAG), and producers. These contracts give performers and agents certainty about the minimum expectations performers should have on any film, television or theatre job. Agents of course are free to negotiate terms which are better than the minimum negotiated between their union and producers. In New Zealand there are no such contracts. While there is a set of guidelines, known as "The Pink Book", these are not binding on any producer and do not stand up to comparison with the minimum conditions performers receive in all other English speaking countries.
NZ Equity Submission to the Ministry for Culture and Heritage
New Zealand Equity welcomes the opportunity to comment upon the Ministry for Culture and Heritage's Review of the New Zealand Film Commission. From the perspective of performers one of the key challenges faced is the development of sustainable careers within this difficult climate as well as within an industry where performers have long been seen to be at the bottom of a pecking order. Download our submission in PDF format here.
Casting Guidelines
In recognition of the importance of the casting process to the industry, and to encourage best practice for the conduct of auditions in Australia, the Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance, along with casting consultants and the Drama Agents Association in Australia, have established casting guidelines.

Jemimah Puddleduck came on next lead by Mark Karan (Ratdog). They were tight but somewhat forgettable. I thought there jams were mostly anti-climatic and lacked direction and drive. The highlight of the set was Dylan's "Tonight I'll Be Staying Here with You" starting off slow and bluesy and coming out a full-on rocker which in turn went into "Turn On Your Lovelight".
New Riders of the Purple Sage were the last band of the night before DSO was to take the stage to finish the night off. And as usual they did not disappoint. The band came out with a roaring Rocky Road Blues. Tight and having fun, the band ran through a number of favourites that had the crowd movin' 'n shakin' to each song and hootin' 'n hollerin' for more after each selection. Other notables for the set were Portland Woman, Lonesome LA Cowboy, I Don't Know You and Last Lonely Eagle. Buddy Cage's pedal steel was ringing clear through the sky throughout the set and I believe could still be heard in the far off distance as the day of music came to a close.
Sunday come too fast but nonetheless there was still one more day to soak up the happy all around and take in the music that lied ahead. The day was scorching hot and we knew shade and hydration were our key words.
Musically, the day started with the Donna Jean Band. Donna Jean and guitarist Jeff Mattson (also of DSO) shared lead on vocals while the band layed down the groove behind them. They played a tune unknown to me but one that had some of the prettiest harmonies and lyrics. A slow beautiful tune called, "Tomorrow is Forever". Then, to the delight of the crowd they launched into a smokin' "Franklin's Tower". And one of my favourites of the weekend, the band layed down a nice slow groove to The Beatles, "She Said".
Up next and, judging by the size of the crowd, one of the most anticipated acts of the weekend, was the Emmitt Nershi Band. They opened with Nershi's "Black Clouds" that had most of the crowd singing along. Emmitt has a real sweet easy-to-listen to voice which is somehow complimented by Nershi's rough yet adept vocals. They were joined on bass by flatpicking champion Tyler Grant and Andy Thorn on banjo (formerly of Larry Keel and Natural Bridge). The tunes were played as well as I've ever seen bluegrass played with each player listening to each other carefully and filling in the spaces nicely. The band has a new album out and, for the most part stuck to their new material, with Emmitt and Nershi trading off the lead vocal roll. The highlight of the set for me was when Larry Keel sat in for the final 4 songs with Keller Williams coming out to lead the final song "Rosalie McFall". It's impossible to put into words what happened on that stage but the Guinness Book of World Records should have been called for the biggest and most smiles in one place at one time and for the most notes played by 6 pickers on the same stage during one song.
After a short break, Keller kept the place movin' with what was labeled "Keller's dance set" with Nershi on guitar. I don't know much of Keller's material by name but I do know that the crowd was taking in every note. And looking out into the crowd, there was a rare and special event happening as they moved almost in synchronicity to the beat.
Now time for Dark Star's last show of the weekend which ended up being a show from 6/28/87 - Alpine Valley Music Theatre, East Troy, WI. They opened with a ruckus "Hell in a Bucket" then slowed things down with a moving "Sugaree". Then time to pick things up again with "Me and My Uncle" followed by "Mexicali Blues". "Althea" and "Bird Song" were other highlights of the set. The band finished the set off with "Jackstraw" and the whole crowd singing along as the band sang, "Leaving Texas, 4th day of July". The set break featured one of the best fireworks shows I've ever seen with the sky doing its best impression of Joseph and the techincolour dreamcoat for what must have been 20 minutes. Making headway a couple hundred feet back to the stage, the crowd was treated to "Mississippi Half Step Todeloo" to open the second set. Other highlights included, "Man Smart, Woman Smarter", "Morning Dew", and to close the set a tasty, "Throwing Stones > Not Fade Away". They encored with "Quinn the Eskimo" before owner/operator Evan Kelley coaxed them back out for a beautiful and stirring "Ripple".

We brought the Board Room into this decade! No more running back and forth with an AV cart every time someone has a presentation!
I am the one and only IT person for a very busy community center, so I could easily go from writing queries at my desk one moment, to climbing through the ceiling/walls/roof tracing cable, to taking babies outside for a fire drill, then rigging the stage for an event. You never know what I'm going to get into!


Hmmm I thought I posted before, maybe I didn't hit the reply button after writing, YIKES. Popeye, I can't reveal my plans yet. But the awning material will be here Tuesday.
C'mon Terry. It's almost Tuesday so you can give us a small insight. A teaser would be great.
Good Morning, Gordon, Eleanor and I are really just "up in the air" LOL on what we want to do. The options are endless!! we have talked about putting a slide in the TH and raising the roof in the bedroom area I do have a front fiberglass cap I could use. We have talked about keeping the Tot'r and building a bigger motor, (to satisfy me) and getting a trailer to pull behind, big thing there is the actual Tot'r (living area) is not big enough. And of course the biggy is building/buying the class 8 truck/MH. In the mean time I will be upgrading/finishing all the little projects in both vehicles.
Glenn, now that's a RV!!
Looks like a converted race car hauler with the triple single rear axles. It cold be a toy hauler with tail gate lift in the rear.
Can understand the conundrum. So many options and not enough time. Yes bigger power would be nice but if you do I would think you would be obligated to do more travelling. Now that is a great thought. Place for the three of you here whenever you are going through.
Class 8 would be wonderful but that could be a big time commitment. Possible to spend a lot of time building when you could be camping. How long would it take to build an 8 and a trailer? How long until Eleanor retires and you could be travelling? No wrong answer to this question in my opinion. Whatever you decide will be the right answer.
Whatever you decide. If I get the chance I would be honored to assist you. However days are the issue. There is a possibility there will be a change in the residency laws so who knows?
Looking forward to whatever you decide to do.
Terry, you already said this, but if once Elenore retires you plan on traveling much more, slides, headroom etc will be of much higher value. Deb's and my old toy hauler was tiring on long stays. The living space was small, all those little things add up.
We are so much more at home in Ms Prissy. You have time, build what you need, you will not regret it. Besides, your 3rd build will be even better!!!

Good Morning, busy morning so far, getting ready for some storms later and picked up the next "DONOR" yup I just can't help myself, . this one is mostly just for the frame, it's an older model that has a frame that's very heavy built, 30 ft. long so it's going to be the next enclosed car hauler. New axles and hitch, Yeeehaw more projects, Lloyd, you've read our minds, The TH as I built it is perfect, a weekend to few week stay is great, and that is what I wanted it for, our plans have evolved to wanting to travel/snowbird ect, maybe fulltime. So the hunt is on, .
I am one of many who enjoy and learn so much from your talented work. I am looking forward to this also. When you say the donor has a strong frame, do you mean just the base (floor), or the walls also? I would guess that the end product will be taller than the donor in the photo. Or, maybe it does not need to be taller if it is a car hauler?
Good to see the "boss/inspector" is on the job and in the photo.

Reproduction, development and morphological variation of the marine green algaCaulerpa racemosa var.peltata from the southern part of Japan were studied in culture in the laboratory. Anisogamous biflagellate male and female gametes were produced monoeciously and copulated with each other. Settled zygotes became spherical and increased in volume. After five weeks, they formed two germ tubes which extended in opposite directions. Both germ tubes became elongated and branched, resulting in the formation of creeping, filamentous, protonema-like plants. These plants formed primary shoots which differentiated into creeping rhizomes and upright axes. Each upright axis successively formed ramuli and developed into an assimilator. The morphology of assimilators, i.e., shape and arrangement of ramuli, varied with culture coditions. The effects of temperature and light intensity on the formation of assimilators were investigated with 25 combinations of 5 temperatures (20.0–30.0C) and 5 light intensities (0.5–8.0 klux). The morphological plasticity of this alga is identical to that ofCaulerpa racemosa var.laetevirens, which was previously described by the present authors. Thus, apparently, the plasticity of this taxon is correlated with environmental factors. It appears, moreover, thatC. racemosa var.peltata andC. racemosa var.laetevirens are ecophenes (ecads) of a single species.

Not one for thematic range roving or genre bending, Jadakiss sticks fiercely to guns and ego on his latest. The one time he does diverge, he reveals a surprisingly thoughtful side: "Why" is a set of near-earnest rhetorical questions about everything from Kobe Bryant to 9/11. "Kiss," which includes a cameo by Eminem, doesn't astound, but Jada flexes impressive muscles as he grinds his heels into a well-trodden dance floor.

Taking Action to Achieve Growth & Success (TAAGS) focuses on supporting young people (12-24) who are currently, or at risk of, becoming negatively involved with peers and communities, increasing their chances of becoming violence involved. This program provides prevention and intervention support— some of the youth involved require intensive interventions that seek to create productive, pro social change in their life. This can include legal supports, clinical therapy, safety planning and peer supports. Often, some of the youth are currently on the cusp of negative activities through minor contact with police, academic and attendance difficulties, non compliance and verbal aggression at home and no substantial pro social activities or networks.
This program employs 'Practitioners' who provide intensive support and monitoring to all of the young people in the program- we also have a project coordinator who supports with partnerships and community engagement and a project manager who supports all project deliverables.
We focus on 'contacts', which one practitioner having physical or verbal contact with each of their young people up to 3 times per week for approximately 1-2 hours each time. TAAGS believes the more we contact and involve ourselves in the lives of young people the higher chance we have to create supportive, trust worthy relationships and resiliency. Through this, we seek to decrease the negative interactions and involvements many youth in Scarborough face. Each practitioner provides multi faceted and diverse services based on the needs of the youth, for a period of 8 months with approximately 12-15 young people on their caseload at a time.
The Youth Outreach Worker Program is a multi-agency outreach initiative designed for marginalized youth in underserved neighbourhoods. Youth Outreach Workers (YOW) engage youth ages 12-29 years old through meaningful connections to services and support systems within their communities. The YOW program is graciously funded by The Ministry of Children and Youth Services and has been with ACSA since 2006.
The GEM program targets, "at risk" females between the ages of 14-19. This program was designed by the YOW's and focuses on the mental well being and physical well being of young females in high school. Topics of discussion and exploration include healthy relationships, the power of a woman, employment, bullying and self-esteem.

Congress to weigh Trump impeachment evidence as formal charges loom
WASHINGTON-A US congressional panel leading the impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump will debate the evidence against him on Monday, with Democratic lawmakers poised to move forward with formal charges of wrongdoing within days.
The Democratic-led House Judiciary Committee will formally review evidence from impeachment investigators at an all-day hearing scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. (1400 GMT), a key step before determining charges, known as articles of impeachment, that the full House of Representatives is likely to vote on before Christmas.
The committee could vote to send them to the House floor later this week, Democratic Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler said on Sunday, as lawmakers sharpened their focus on charges of wrongdoing in Trump's dealings with Ukraine.
That will set up an inevitable clash with Trump and his Republican allies, who maintain that Democrats are on a partisan mission to unseat a president who did nothing to merit impeachment. No current House Republican has come out in favour of impeaching Trump.
A vote in the Democratic-led House in favour of impeachment would trigger a trial in the Republican-controlled Senate where a two-thirds vote would be needed to remove the president from office. A conviction is considered unlikely.
It has been 20 years since Americans last witnessed impeachment proceedings, when Republicans brought charges against Democratic President Bill Clinton arising from a sexual relationship he had with a White House intern. He was acquitted in the Senate.
"It's up to us now in the House, and presumably will be up to the senators, to see if we will and if the senators will put the welfare of the country and patriotism above partisan considerations or not," Nadler said on CNN's "State of the Union" on Sunday.
But on ABC's "This Week," House Judiciary Republican Matt Gaetz said the impeachment drive was "exclusively supported by Democrats." After weeks of investigation into Trump's request that Ukraine investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, a leading contender for the Democratic nomination to face the president in the 2020 election, the committee is focused on two articles charging Trump with abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
Democrats have also accused Trump of abusing his power by withholding $391 million in security aid to Ukraine - a vulnerable U.S. ally facing Russian aggression - and holding back a coveted White House meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy as leverage to pressure Kiev into investigating Biden and his businessman son, Hunter Biden.

Pinker, S. (1994). The Language Instinct: The New Science of Language and Mind. London, The Penguin Press.
In his landmark book Stephen Pinker shows how language is part of our genetic inheritance rather than a cultural creation. From the DNA that builds our brains to the pontification of newspaper columnists, Pinker destroys the myths about language - that children learn to talk by copying their parents, that grammatical standards are in decline, that English defies logic - revealing the innate human instinct to communicate that we are all born with.
