HTC 10 coming to Verizon and Sprint
Verizon Wireless is already accepting pre-orders while Sprint is expected to have the flagship in stores in mid-May.
HTC One M9 has failed to impress, and the A9 did not break any records, either. On the other hand, it looks like the new HTC flagship is exactly what the company needed - a device to bring it back into the spotlight. HTC 10 received mostly positive reviews from the press, and it looks like the first ones are now ready to reach their new owners.
According to Android Authority, Verizon Wireless is already taking pre-orders and the new flagship will be available for purchase in its stores by May 5th. On the other hand, Sprint has no pre-order period, but will have the HTC 10 in stores starting on May 13th.
The prices are as it follows:
Verizon Wireless - $648 USD outright, 24 monthly payments of $22.83 USD ($548 USD total)
Sprint - 24 monthly payments of $26 USD ($624 USD total)
At last, it should be noted that T-Mobile and US Cellular have no plans yet concerning HTC 10. AT&T, on the other hand, is not expected to add this handset to its portfolio, since an AT&T-compatible version can be found directly via HTC's official website.

Hidden Gems around central Ohio: Ohio School of Falconry
ABBY ARMBRUSTER THISWEEKNEWS.COM @abbyarmbruster
Sep 27, 2019 at 3:06 PM Sep 27, 2019 at 5:07 PM
Central Ohio residents do not have to travel far to learn the basics about one of the oldest sports in the world.
The Ohio School of Falconry, founded in 2014, offers introductory classes for bird handlers as young as 9 years old. The school offers programs around Ohio, but its home base is at Camp Mary Orton, 7925 N. High St., Columbus, where classes are held every weekend.
"A lot of people kind of romanticize it as just being something where you walk around with a bird," said Joseph Dorrian, executive director of school "The sport of falconry is actually a hunting sport."
The Ohio School of Falconry was the seventh stop on ThisWeek Community News' "Hidden Gems around central Ohio" video series. Previous stops included the cemetery for the former state psychiatric hospital, the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum, the American Whistle Corp., a Central Ohio Symphony performance, the Anthony-Thomas Candy Co. and the Akiba Arcade.
People may sign up for two introduction courses to learn more about the birds used in falconry. Classes typically are booked three weeks in advance, Dorrian said. Prices start at $75.
During our Facebook Live video, Dorrian introduced Henson, an Eurasian eagle-owl, and Sedosa, a Harris' hawk.
Hawks, falcons and owls can be used to draw out other animals, such as squirrels, rabbits, ducks and pheasants, Dorrian said.
"The mainstay is rabbits and squirrels," he said.
Falconry dates back to Asian countries thousands of years ago, Dorrian said.
"There's varying thoughts about how old it is," he said. "Some people say it's as young as 4,000 (years old); some people say (it's) as old as 10,000 years old."

Q: Calculatig $\zeta (0)$ from $\zeta (2n)=\frac{(-1)^{n+1}\mathrm B_{2n}(2\pi )^{2n}}{2(2n)!}$ MathWorld and Wikipedia state that
$$\zeta (2n)=\frac{(-1)^{n+1}\mathrm B_{2n}(2\pi )^{2n}}{2(2n)!}$$
is valid for positive integers $n$. But the identity works for $0$ as well. Is it rigorous to use the identity to prove that $\zeta (0)=-\frac12$?

A:
Of course it depends how you proved $\zeta (2n)=\frac{(-1)^{n+1}\mathrm B_{2n}(2\pi )^{2n}}{2(2n)!}, n\ge 1$.

If it is applying the residue theorem to $\lim_{N \to \infty}\int_{|z| = N} \frac{z^{-2n}}{e^z-1}dz$ then no it doesn't apply to $n=0$.
Same if it is from the Fourier series or $\pi s\cot\pi s=s\sum_k \frac1{s+k}=1-2\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^{n+1}\mathrm B_{2n}(2\pi )^{2n}}{2(2n)!}s^{2n}$.
If it is after showing the functional equation and $\Gamma(s)\zeta(s)=  (-1)^n\frac{B_n}{n!}\frac{1}{s+n-1}+O(1)$ then yes it is valid for $n=0$.

Pediatrics Residency
Unique Program Aspects
Duke Pediatric Research Scholars Program
The Duke Pediatric Research Scholars Program (DPRS) is a Physician-Scientist Training Program (PSTP) dedicated to preparing burgeoning physician-scientists for careers in academic medicine. The program focuses on the period from the completion of the MD, DO, MD/PhD, or DO/PhD degree through residency and fellowship training, with the goal of achieving a full-time academic appointment as an investigator. DPRS combines the intensive clinical training environment of Duke Children's with the rigorous scientific training of the world-renowned laboratories at Duke University.
The mission of the Duke Pediatric Research Scholars Program is to identify and train the next generation of pediatric physician-scientists as leaders in the development and implementation of innovative strategies to improve the health of children.
Eligible applicants include graduates with a combined MD/PhD, DO/PhD degree, or an MD degree and an established record of clinical or basic research experience. DPRS trainees must fulfill all eligibility requirements for our categorical Pediatrics Residency or one of our Pediatric Subspecialty Fellowship Programs. The most competitive candidates will have a strong commitment to a research career and an outstanding academic record.
The Duke Department of Pediatrics is proud of its rich community of physician-scientists, and the Duke Pediatric Residency Program is fully supportive of research-enhanced training. The DPRS is tailored to meet the unique professional goals and interests of physician-scientist trainees by providing four distinct research pathways to select from, including the Traditional Pathway, the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP)-approved Integrated Research Pathway (IRP), and the Duke SCI-StARR Pathway. Regardless of the pathway by which applicants enter the DPRS, all research scholars participate in:
Monthly didactic research career development series
Fellows core curriculum research topics
Monthly journal club
Annual research retreat
Program Tracks
Traditional Pathway
3-year Residency with research elective months in PL-2 and PL-3. There is no formal integration with a fellowship program in this track.
Integrated Research Pathway (IRP)
3-year Residency with 2 clinical years and 1 research year (11 months). Research months replace clinical electives. Residents who wish to participate in the IRP must receive approval from the ABP within the first 9-months of the PGY-1 year. This pathway is open to individuals with MD/PhD or OD/PhD degrees or others who can demonstrate equivalent evidence of research experience and commitment.
Sample Integrated Pathway Schedule
Duke SCI-StARR Pathway
4-year Residency with 18-months of research sponsored by an R38 Stimulating Access to Research in Residency grant. Residents will be selected from the Departments of Medicine, Pediatrics, and Surgery to participate in this program each year. Residents who wish to pursue this pathway will apply to the program during their intern year. Residents in this pathway will have a primary research mentor and a scholarship oversight committee that will meet at least twice per year to help residents create an individualized career development plan.
Residents in the program will establish a track record of scholarly activities, including:
Submission of an application for an external individual career development award (NRSA F32 or K38/StARRTs)
Participation in scientific meetings
Submission of research manuscripts to peer-reviewed journals
Benefits of the program include:
Opportunity to apply for a technician or research assistant to maintain research productivity during the years of clinical training
Preferential ranking for Duke School of Medicine subspecialty fellowship programs
Funds to support conference travel and research needs
Eligibility to apply for a new NIH early career award (K38 Stimulating Access to Research in Residency Transition Scholar)
Sample SCI-StARR (R38) Pathway Schedule
All research scholars in the DPRS program benefit from the following:
Option for a research-integrated residency training pathway;
Assignment to a career advisor and mentor to facilitate decisions about training and longer-term career options;
Group mentoring sessions with other research scholars led by senior investigators in the Department of Pediatrics and from across the University;
A monthly Research and Career Development lecture series;
Financial support for research conferences and for publication costs.
For residency
All DPRS applicants should use ERAS to apply to the standard categorical Pediatrics Residency Program at Duke. If a resident is interested in the IRP or StARR training pathways, that individual should also apply to the Pediatric Research Track at Duke.
Duke Pediatric applicants with a strong research background will be selected and invited for a separate Duke Pediatric interview day that will include an opportunity to meet with potential research mentors. All Pediatric Resident applicants invited for the Duke Pediatric Research Scholar interview day who match at Duke are automatically enrolled into the DPRS program.
For subspecialty fellowship
Incoming fellows should notify their fellowship director that they would like to apply to the DPRS. Candidates may then send in an NIH-style biosketch and a 1-page cover letter explaining how DPRS will benefit their research and career plans to pedsresscholars@dm.duke.edu.

Current Pediatric Research Scholars
The Duke Pediatric Research Scholars program (DPRS) is pleased to announce the selection of 8 new scholars for the 2019-2020 academic year:
Research Track Residents
Amy Berkman
I coached tennis after college and loved working with children and adolescents, so going into medicine I knew that I wanted to be in pediatrics. My research interests include long-term outcomes after cancer treatment, particularly cardiac outcomes and changes in health behaviors like physical activity. I hope to improve children's health by contributing to our understanding of long-term health after childhood cancer and ultimately working in the survivorship setting.
Lee McDaniel, Jr.
My calling to work in pediatrics came from my patients. I realized that only pediatrics offers a very special balance between the gravitas of medicine and good-natured humor. Much of my experience prior to medical school was in computer science and genomics, and I firmly believe that these fields will continue to become ever more essential to the practice of medicine. On the biology side, I am interested in integrating multiple data sets to identify key pathological genes and mechanisms in pediatric illnesses. On the clinical side, I am interested in utilizing natural language processing on electronic medical records to further identify associations between clinical phenotype and integrated genomic data. On the bioinformatics side, I am interested in adapting deep neural network machine learning techniques to the above goals.
Categorial Residents

Physician-Scientist Support at Duke
Duke MD-Scientist Development Program
In May 2018, Duke University School of Medicine received 1 of 5 Burroughs Wellcome Fund Physician-Scientist Institutional Awards to support MD-only physician-scientists conducting laboratory-based research. This program, which is being led by DPRS Director Dr. Rasheed Gbadegesin, will sponsor the creation of a centralized School of Medicine Office of Physician-Scientist Development, which will implement the following initiatives for the Duke MD Scientist Development Program:
Concierge Mentoring Program to provide MD trainees at all levels with early and frequent guidance by trained Master Mentors who will help trainees identify appropriate labs, mentors, develop individualized training plans, set milestones, and track progress;
Basic Research Training Program using a "flipped classroom" curriculum to teach skills required to perform rigorous basic science research, manage, analyze, and present data, run a laboratory, and successfully compete for research funding;
MD-Scientist Funding Program to provide expertise and assistance with the development and preparation of trainee grant submissions and aggressively pursue institutional and external award mechanisms that support trainee protected research time;
Integrated Training Pathways Program to enable continuity of research training during clinical training and provide technician support during clinical training years.
NICHD Pediatric Scientist Development Program
The NICHD Pediatric Scientist Development Program (PSDP) was first established in 1986 due to concerns that pediatric trainees did not receive sufficient training in molecular biology to compete successfully for NIH grants. The program constitutes a national network of mentors and scholars and is responsible for identifying pediatricians who have completed their clinical training and have promising research potential. The program matches scholars with established mentors with strong records of research productivity. The program will develop guidelines for mentoring and career development in order to promote the successful transition of the candidates into independent research careers in academic settings. Dr. Sallie Permar, Director of the Duke Pediatric Research Scholars Program, was recently selected as Program Director of the PDSP and will assume full responsibility for the program in July 2019.
Duke Strong Start Awards
The goal of this program is to nurture the careers of young, laboratory-based physician-scientists at Duke. By offering substantive mentoring and financial resources, this award will support junior, physician-scientist faculty during a critical period of their career, the transition to research independence.
The awards program is intentionally designed to integrate with other Duke initiatives that train physician-scientists at even earlier points in their career, such as the Medical Scientist Training Program (MD-PhD students) and the Lefkowitz Society (clinical residents and fellows). In this way, the Strong Start Awards Program will ensure that Duke University School of Medicine remains a leader in the training of outstanding physician-scientists, a group uniquely committed to the advancement of the medical sciences in our own community and in the nation.
The request for applications is typically posted in early spring and applicants must have a primary faculty appointment within a department of Duke University School of Medicine, prior to advancement to the rank of associate professor.
Duke Clinical and Translational Sciences Education & Workforce Development
The CTSI Education and Workforce Development Core supports the advancement of the next generation of interdisciplinary research leaders, offering an evolving portfolio of workforce development opportunities to address the training needs of a range of learners—from staff to students to faculty.
CTSA KL2
The Duke CTSA KL2 program will provide training and research opportunities for junior investigators that will equip them to participate in and ultimately lead transdisciplinary research teams that transcend traditional scientific silos and embrace diverse stakeholder input; facilitate advancement of discoveries to their next translational phase; leverage partnerships locally, regionally, and nationally to enhance the impact of their discoveries; and promote the development of a diverse workforce.
CTSA TL1 Physician Research Fellowship
The Duke CTSA TL1 physician fellowship is a new 2-year training program aiming to provide 2 years of funded time to support the research training of physician-scientists. All eligible physician trainees may apply, but we have particular interest in applicants who are interested in broadening their previous training to include a new category of research methodology (e.g., applicants with a bench science background looking to gain training in translational or clinical research, or vice versa). We also have particular interest in applicants looking to obtain training in data science methodology. The Duke CTSA TL1 will typically be for two years, will provide tailored professional development support, an NIH-scale postgraduate stipend, as well as federally-designated training-related expenses.
National Clinician Scholars Program (NCSP)
The National Clinician Scholars Program (NCSP) aims to offer unparalleled training for clinicians as change agents driving policy-relevant research and partnerships to improve health and health care. The goal of the program is to cultivate health equity, eliminate health disparities, invent new models of care, and achieve higher quality health care at lower cost by training nurse and physician researchers who work as leaders and collaborators embedded in communities, healthcare systems, government, foundations, and think tanks in the United States and around the world.
The overarching goal of the Duke NCSP is to train inter-professional clinician scholars in data-driven inquiry, policy-impactful and rigorous investigation, sensitive community-based participatory research, and transformation of health care practice. Four central pillars undergird the program:
Diverse and experienced program leadership;
Deep bench of dedicated and successful mentors;
Comprehensive didactic research and professional development training program;
Broad range of mentored research and policy training opportunities, including direct engagement with community partners and community organizations.
Pediatric Scientist Development Program (PSDP)
The Pediatric Scientist Development Program (PSDP) provides intensive training in research relevant to specialty areas of pediatrics. The goal is to prepare entry-level faculty for research careers in academic pediatrics. Physicians presently in pediatric training programs who wish to train in basic, translational, clinical, or health services research with an established investigator/mentor are encouraged to apply. A commitment to an investigative academic career is essential.

Accidents happen, and almost always at the most inopportune time. Just because problems arise when we often least expect them, does not mean we have to suffer from the negative consequences they impose. Your residential or commercial Medford electrical system will not always do what it is supposed to, but thanks to the crew at Winters Electric, all you need to do is pick up the phone and call. While many contractors operate only within regular business hours or charge exorbitant fees for after-hours service, we believe neither one is effective for helping clients in need.
When we say we offer 24/7 service in Medford, we mean it!
In the event that your control panel stops working at 2AM or the transformer outside your home suffers damage, you should not have to worry about waiting until morning for help to arrive, nor pay an arm and a leg for electricity to be restored. At Winters Electric, we receive emergency calls all the time, and as such expect them to.
Thus, when you place a call in the wee hours of the morning, you will never be forwarded to an automated voicemail system. One of our emergency dispatchers will be ready to receive the call, and promptly respond by sending a technician to your location. Depending on the nature of the circumstances and our after-hours call volume, we will do our best to have someone at your home or office as soon as possible!
Reliable is the Winters Electric way!

Ireland extends an easy welcome to all
By Andrew McCarthy
Arriving in low spirits from a dreary London, I kissed the ground the first time I landed in Ireland as a very young man—my friend snapped a photo of me doing it. My father's family had come to America from the "Old Sod" generations earlier, but that vague awareness carried little import in my life at the time. Why I dropped to my knees and kissed the tarmac like some kind of youthful, heathen pontiff, I couldn't explain to my bewildered, camera-toting friend. By the time we left three weeks later (we had intended only a weekend getaway), I had begun to understand my impulsive act.
In the mid-1980s, Ireland was a poor country, yet we were welcomed with an openheartedness that allowed me to relax in a way I'd not previously experienced. I felt strangely at home, in a fashion that I had never felt in the suburban New Jersey of my youth. In Dublin and Cork, and especially in the Irish countryside, I felt myself received.
On that first trip I walked into McDermott's Pub in Doolin, in County Clare, and discovered the effect that ripping Irish traditional music played to a packed room has on the nervous system. Atop a nearby hill beside a 15th-century ruin, I came upon Ballinalacken Castle Country House Hotel. I've been returning ever since, and three generations of the O'Callaghan family have welcomed me with their country hospitality. Until Denis O'Callaghan died a few years ago, he always greeted me by crushing my hand and pumping my arm and shouting, "You're welcome here, Andrew" in his thick country accent (even after I'd backed into—and severely dented—his brand-new car). And when I was caught sneaking into the kitchen to pinch some of Mrs. O'Callaghan's famous (to me and my friend) brown soda bread, she slapped my wrist, then upon checkout handed me an extra loaf "for the long journey back."
On that first trip I met an elderly man named Tommy Ahern, who had been captain at the Lahinch Golf Club, a classic seaside links course. Tommy suggested I become an overseas lifetime member and offered to sponsor me into the club. Without a notion of ever returning to Ireland, I impulsively accepted. That frivolous act has brought me more satisfaction over the decades than almost any practical thing I have ever done. When I'm nowhere near the links—or even Ireland—a passing recollection of my membership elicits in me a sense of belonging, which continues to enhance my connection to the country. (And it doesn't hurt that it's a hell of a golf course.)
On my second or third trip I went to County Galway and discovered its Gaeltacht (Irishspeaking) region of Connemara, with rugged, almost tundra-like terrain and filigreed coastline. Memories of a flat tire on the "haunted" Bog Road outside Roundstone on a moonless night still elicit shivers. And at some point I made it out to the Aran Islands, those isolated, wind-battered
outcrops in Galway Bay—where I have never endured such profound silence.
Eventually, I met a woman (it's an age-old story) who would bring Ireland even further into my consciousness and change my life. A place where I had always felt at home suddenly became home. Soon there were children, in-laws, and a mortgage. I came to know more than the traveler's tantalizing taste of Irish life.
Beneath the blarney, a darkness to the Irish character reveals itself over time. (Could the Irish have given the world Joyce and Wilde and Beckett without it?) But the rebellious, "stick-it-to-the-man" edge only made me love the place and its people more. After all, aren't we all just the strength of our flaws, as the Irish might say?
Yet neither individuals nor countries get rich quick gracefully, and the Celtic Tiger of the early 21st century sapped much of that easy welcome the Irish had been famous for. Thanks to EU bolstering and tax incentives, the perpetual underdog was now feeling like a top dog. Helicopter rides across the country to Moran's Oyster Cottage outside Galway supplanted a ham and cheese toasted at the local pub. Irish hospitality took on a distinctly Polish accent, and it became difficult to find any Irish in the service industry. For the first time, a generation grew up knowing only a wealthy homeland. The 2008 financial crisis brought all of that to a halt. The housing bubble burst, silencing the braggadocio.
"We had simply lost the run of ourselves, full stop," my mother-in-law summed up with not a little relief when it all came crashing down.
Since then, Ireland, like much of the world, has recovered a great deal. But that ingrained wariness so central to the Irish character and charm has lingered. I feel it in the playful "slagging" (teasing) when I slip into Kehoe's off Grafton Street, my favorite Dublin pub. Golf courses that had begun to think of themselves as Augusta National are only too happy for me to "give it a lashing" once again. The easy welcome has returned.
So lately, I've been exploring more. With Ireland, as with any truly worthwhile place, the more you discover, the more there is to be revealed. Just last year I finally made it to the Dingle Peninsula, that small finger of land jutting into the Atlantic. Just north of
its more famous neighbor, the Ring of Kerry, Dingle is on the road to nowhere but itself—with the vast Inch Beach, a buzzing town, and the gateway to the haunting Blasket Islands, it's worth the trip. There's more on my to-do list. I've long intended to make the pilgrimage up Croagh Patrick mountain, where patron Saint Patrick was said to have fasted in the fifth century. I am forever hoping to spend more time in remote County Donegal. And someday soon I will steal a month or two and walk the "Old Sod" from top to bottom—from Malin Head to Mizen Head. No doubt my feet will ache and my clothes will be sodden. But as it has done since I first arrived three decades earlier, the land under my feet will send my spirits soaring as I trudge that long walk home.

Four Supreme Court judges take on Chief Justice of India, say democracy at risk

Warning that democracy is at risk, four senior judges of the Supreme Court on Friday mounted a virtual revolt against the country's chief justice, raising questions on "selective" case allocation and certain judicial orders, sending shockwaves across the judiciary and polity.

The unprecedented move by the four judges including Justice J Chelameswar, the second senior judge after Chief Justice Dipak Misra, brought to fore the simmering differences between the country's top judge and some senior judges in the apex court in recent months. The apex court currently has 25 judges.

Justice Chelameswar himself described as an "extraordinary event" in the annals of the Indian judiciary when the judges addressed a joint news conference during which he said, "sometimes administration of the Supreme Court is not in order and many things which are less than desirable have happened in the last few months."

The judge accused Justice Misra of not taking any "remedial measures" on some of the issues which affected the functioning of the apex court that they had raised. Justice Misra became the CJI on August 28, 2017, and he is due to retire from on October 2 this year.

Unless this institution is preserved, "democracy will not survive" in this country, Justice Chelameswar said at the unscheduled press conference, in the first of its kind event in independent India, leaving uncertain how this open dissension in the hallowed institution would be resolved.
In a scathing criticism and unvarnished self-reflection of the Supreme Court, Chelameswar, who was accompanied by Justices Ranjan Gogoi, M B Lokur and Kurian Joseph at the press conference, said they had met the chief justice this morning and "raised issues affecting the institution." The CJI and the four judges comprise the Supreme Court collegium that selects judges for the higher judiciary.
"Unless this institution is preserved, democracy will not survive in this country," Justice Chelameswar said, adding that it was "extremely painful" to hold the press conference in such a manner. The conference was held at his residence here.
He said all the four judges "failed to persuade CJI that certain things are not in order and therefore you should take remedial measures. Unfortunately, our efforts failed.
"And all four of us are convinced that democracy is at stake and many things have happened in recent past," he said.
Asked what these issues were, he said they included the "allocation of cases by CJI". The remarks assume significance as the apex court earlier in the day took up for consideration the issue of alleged mysterious death of special CBI judge B H Loya, who was hearing the sensitive Sohrabuddin Sheikh 'fake encounter' case.
Justice Chelameswar said "we owe a responsibility to the institution and the nation. Our efforts have failed in convincing CJI to take steps to protect the institution."
"This is an extraordinary event in the history of any nation, more particularly this nation and an extraordinary event in the institution of the judiciary ... It is with no pleasure that we are compelled to call this press conference."
There was no immediate official response from the CJI office.
Asked whether they wanted the Chief Justice to be impeached, Justice Chelameswar said, "let the nation decide."
The Centre made it clear it is not going to intervene in the unprecedented development, saying the judiciary will resolve the issue itself.
"Our judiciary is reputed all over the world, independent and they will sort the matter themselves," said minister of state for law P P Chaudhury.
The four judges, in their seven-page letter to the CJI, said, "It is with great anguish and concern that we have thought it proper to address this letter to you so as to highlight certain judicial orders passed by this court which has adversely affected the overall functioning of the justice delivering system and the independence of the high courts besides impacting the administrative functioning of the office of the Hon'ble Chief Justice of India."
The letter, that was released to the press, was sent a couple of months back, Justice Chelameswar said.
"It is too well settled in the jurisprudence of this country that the chief justice is only first amongst the equals — nothing more or nothing less."
The letter said that there have been instances where cases having "far-reaching consequences for the nation" and the institution have been assigned by the chief justices of this court "selectively to the benches 'of their preference' without any rational basis" for such assignment.
"This must be guarded against at all costs."
"We are not mentioning details only to avoid embarrassing the institution but note that such departures have already damaged the image of this institution to some extent."
The letter also raised the concerns of the judges on the allocation of cases.
"It is too well settled in the jurisprudence of this country that the chief justice is only first amongst the equals -- nothing more or nothing less.
"A necessary corollary to the above-mentioned principle is the members of any multi-numbered judicial body including this court would not arrogate to themselves the authority to deal with and pronounce upon matters which ought to be heard by appropriate benches, both composition wise and strength wise with due regard to the roster fixed.
"Any departure from the above two rules would not only lead to unpleasant and undesirable consequences of creating doubt in the body politic about the integrity of the institution. Not to talk about the chaos that would result from such departure.
"We are sorry to say that off late the twin rules mentioned above have not been strictly adhered to," the letter said.
The legal fraternity said they were "pained" and "sad" at the outcome of events in the country's highest court.
"It is very unfortunate," said former CJI K G Balakrishnan, while Congress leader Ashwani Kumar, who is also a senior advocate, observed, "It is a sad day for the judicial system." Some senior advocates like K T S Tulsi said there could have been some "compelling" reasons for the four judges to lay bare their differences.
Attorney General K K Venugopal, who had a meeting with Justice Misra after the joint news conference of the judges, said it "could have been avoided" and that all judges would now have to act in "statesmanship" to ensure total harmony.
At the news conference, the judges rubbished suggestions that they have broken ranks and said they will discharge their duties as usual.
Justice Gogoi said "nobody is breaking the rank and it is a discharge of debt to a nation which we have done."
Gogoi would be succeeding Misra as CJI in October this year.

Technology|Foursquare Raises $45 Million, Cutting Its Valuation Nearly in Half
Foursquare Raises $45 Million, Cutting Its Valuation Nearly in Half

By Mike Isaac
When Dennis Crowley helped found Foursquare in 2009, he was ahead of the pack in creating a social app that used location technology. Now Foursquare may be at the front of another coming wave: tech start-ups that are raising money at lower valuations than before.
On Thursday, Foursquare said it had raised $45 million in a new round of venture funding, as it tries to bolster its location data-based advertising and developer businesses. The financing pegs Foursquare's valuation at roughly half of the approximately $650 million that it was valued at in its last round in 2013, according to three people with knowledge of the deal's terms, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Foursquare, which is based in New York, is likely to be joined by other start-ups this year in doing what is known in investing circles as "down rounds," in which companies that once raised money at soaring valuations are forced to accept funding at lower values. While tech start-ups boomed in recent years — with many easily attracting investors and big sums — that environment has now turned on fears that many of these young companies got ahead of themselves.
Investors have grown more cautious; the amount of money funding private companies has fallen 30 percent, to $27.3 billion, in the last quarter of 2015 from the previous quarter, according to a report from the research firm CB Insights. Mutual fund investors have also recently marked down valuations of some of the most prominent private companies, such as Snapchat, the messaging start-up, and Dropbox, the file storage service.
"The short of it is, expect more down rounds," said Anand Sanwal, chief executive of CB Insights. "You might be able to raise, but not at the valuation you might have gotten even just a year ago."
Foursquare's valuation plunge reflects how the buzz around the company — which was once the talk of the start-up scene — has faded, something that Mr. Crowley, who is stepping down as chief executive to be executive chairman, acknowledges.
"Everyone thought we were going to be the company that toppled Facebook, which is crazy talk," Mr. Crowley, 39, said in an interview. Still, he added, "we're building a really amazing, very scalable business around the many successful products we've built that people love."
Foursquare declined to comment on its valuation or specific fund-raising details, except to say that the round was "oversubscribed" and that the terms were "employee friendly." Recode and TechCrunch earlier reported that Foursquare was raising a down round.
"To raise $45 million in this environment, and on very employee-friendly terms, is a testament to the real business we have," said Jeff Glueck, Foursquare's chief operating officer, who is being promoted to chief executive. Steven Rosenblatt, the chief revenue officer, will also shift roles to become president.
The executive moves reflect Foursquare's future direction, said Mr. Crowley, who added that his new role would be more advisory. "I know what my strengths are — building, prototyping and making things from scratch," he said. "I believe it's important for Foursquare to be run by executives who have previous experience scaling companies."
At its birth, Foursquare made a splash as a pioneer of using the global positioning technology found in Apple's iPhone. The app let people "check in" to venues and businesses, a type of social game that quickly rose in popularity among tech elites and young audiences.
The attention made Foursquare a star of New York's start-up scene. Investors including the venture capital firms Andreessen Horowitz and O'Reilly AlphaTech Ventures flocked to give the company money. In total, Foursquare has raised more than $100 million.
As of early 2012, Foursquare said it had 1.5 billion check-ins and 15 million users. The company began making money by selling location-based ads to local businesses; a sandwich shop, for instance, could send a coupon in the form of a smartphone notification to a Foursquare user walking by its restaurant, all using the GPS technology running in the background of the app.
But the location check-in quickly became a standard feature among other apps like Instagram and Facebook, and users became less interested in the gamelike aspect of Foursquare. The start-up shifted direction to focus on "discovery," and split itself into two apps: Swarm, an app for check-ins, and Foursquare, which recommends users to nearby restaurants and venues based on their location and preferences.
That vision, which has had stop-and-start degrees of success, has also changed over time. Today, Foursquare's business is primarily selling data and insights about consumer trends to developers. Foursquare said it planned to spend its new capital on bolstering that business, which accounts for a majority of its revenue. The company says it now has 50 million monthly active users and has had 7.8 billion check-ins.
Even with the new capital, down rounds can be brutal on start-ups for several reasons. In addition to any shifts in the public perception of a company's fortunes, employees who had joined at the higher value may find the equity they own isn't worth as much as it once was. Investors who bought in at the higher value also will see the worth of their stakes decline.
"In a down round, there are a few folks who can suffer," said Mr. Sanwal of CB Insights.
Foursquare's new financing was led by the venture capital firm Union Square Ventures, which was an existing investor in the company. Other previous investors including Andreessen Horowitz and DFJ Growth, as well as a new participant, Morgan Stanley, are also involved in the new funding.
"Location is one of the linchpins for creating compelling experiences on mobile," said Albert Wenger, managing partner at Union Square Ventures.
The funding will buy Foursquare some time to prove that its new vision can become a reality. The company said it planned to hire 30 more employees across sales, engineering and other divisions to meet what it expects to be great demand for the location platform.
"Good things happen to companies who are performing really well," Mr. Crowley said. "If we continue performing how we have been, we'll find that we have a lot of options down the line."

Clinical Presentations of Female Hypersexuality on a Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic in Turkey: A Retrospective Analysis of Patients in the Concept of Diagnosis and Trauma

Journal Name: SEXUAL HEALTH & COMPULSIVITY
Page Numbers: pp.1-21
Hypersexual behavior is a concept that is not included in the DSM-5, although it is encountered frequently in clinical practice. Cumulative evidence shows that childhood sexual abuse can play a significant role in hypersexuality cases. In this study, female patients with hypersexuality were retrospectively analyzed in terms of sociodemographic and clinical variables in 2020. 21 patients were diagnosed with hypersexual disorder according to Kafka's proposed criteria. The mean age of the patients was 36.1 ± 9.0. Most of the patients had a history of sexual trauma. The most significant focus of this study was the diagnostic conversion from bipolar affective disorder to post-traumatic stress disorder. Post-traumatic stress symptoms directly affect hypersexual behavior through the mediation of depression, shame, and guilt. It is crucial to avoid assessing hypersexuality as a categorical symptom and pathological at first, and patients should be evaluated with their sociocultural aspects.

This idea still great in 2012! So glad it popped up with a google search "mod christmas decorations" and a little scrolling. Punch out old holiday cards...pick out parts you like...sparkles, snowman face...or just abstract curves. Recycling!
This is very helpful! I am sewing paper leaves for my classroom. Circles would be fun for the kids to hand sew together! Fun! Thank you!
Love, love, love this Corinna. Thanks for sharing! I don't think you mentioned, but this would be great as a Christmas tree garland, too, using shiny old wrapping paper, coffee packets, or other festive ephemera!
Thank you! I've been looking for reusable party decorations to make. This and the mod ornaments will be perfect!
Super Cute! I will be linking...thank you!
Cute, very cute!!! You will need the bobbin thread when yu sew with your machine, otherwise the top thread has nothing to loop around and it wont work!
Use up your old needles for this - the paper will blunt them and you wont be able to use them for 'real' sewing after.
You can glue two thin circles together (phone books are one source) - use a smear of glue stick. Any string, yarn, tinsel, etc.
These are wonderful! I'm getting my sewing machine tuned up tomorrow. I've been meaning to bring it in, but this is my motivation to do it!
I get used paperback books of stories with pictures I like...such as Little House On the Prairie series or Charlotte's Web. I have cut out the pictures and famed them. I hate not using the rest of the book pages. This is a great way to use more of the book.
Rih - Instead of gluing, I'd recommend punching a hole in either side and thread the string through.
so I don't have a sewing machine, and honestly I'm really not that crafty, but feeling inspired and on a budget... think I could glue two circles over a piece of string to make the garland? best string or glue to use? other ideas?
I didn't...I thought it might be a problem, but it cruised along just fine right between 3 and 4. Maybe loosening up would work? It doesn't really matter how tight the stitch is, as its not holding anything together, right?


At Balanced Health Medical, our NYC chiropractors in Midtown Manhattan have seen many patients suffering from shoulder tendinitis. This problem affects many people and requires specialists to manage and treat the pain correctly.
This condition is an inflammation of the tendons in your shoulder's rotator cuff. It causes severe tightening in your muscles that can be very painful to manage without a high-quality chiropractor. For example, the pain will make it difficult for you to move your arm up and down. It can also make it impossible for you to perform in various sports. While a chiropractor can help with the pain of shoulder tendinitis, it may take multiple treatments to manage.
Shoulder Bursitis – Developing this disease causes a variety of severe symptoms, including tendinitis that requires a chiropractor.
Rotator Cuff Impingement – This painful situation occurs when the rotator cuff hits the acromion bone and causes severe pain that a chiropractor can treat.
Trauma to the Tendons – Severe injury and damage to the tendons of this cuff can cause acute pain that requires a chiropractor to manage.
Chiropractic Care – Chiropractors provide subtle manipulations that offer pain relief.

A recent article in the University of South Florida's The Oracle describes as "misguided" the scrutiny of Planned Parenthood that has followed the release of undercover videos by the Center for Medical Progress. The article is highly critical of attempts to cease government funding to Planned Parenthood, citing the oft-bandied statistic that abortions account for only three percent of the services that Planned Parenthood provides.
It should first be noted that the "three percent" mantra is a red herring. If, as abortion opponents claim, abortion intentionally kills an innocent human being, and intentionally killing innocent human beings is wrong, then the question of exactly how much of Planned Parenthood's business abortion constitutes is moot. If abortion unjustifiably kills preborn children, then we should not tolerate Planned Parenthood performing even a single abortion. If, however, abortion does not unjustifiably kill preborn children, then Planned Parenthood should be proud to perform abortions and not attempt to downplay abortion as a very minor component of the health services they provide. According to their 2013-2014 Annual Report, Planned Parenthood performed 327,653 abortions in 2013. That's a very large number, regardless of what percentage of Planned Parenthood's total services it represents.
Beyond this, though, the three percent statistic is misleading. Planned Parenthood arrives at this number by counting every service they provide to every client individually, and then adding all of these "services" together, regardless of the cost, difficulty, or time involved in providing the service. Every time Planned Parenthood gives out a pregnancy test or a contraceptive kit, they count it as a "service." So if a Planned Parenthood facility gives out ninety pregnancy tests on one day and also performs ten abortions that day, by their figuring abortion would only have constituted ten percent of their services that day, irrespective of the vast resource, cost, and time differential between the pregnancy tests administered and the abortions performed. Or imagine that a woman goes into Planned Parenthood and receives a pregnancy test, an STI screening, contraceptives, and an abortion. By Planned Parenthood's reasoning, she has received four services, only one of which was abortion. Thus, the abortion would only be counted as twenty-five percent of the services they provided to that client, even if it cost more and took longer than the other three services combined.
Examining Planned Parenthood's method for calculating the "three percent" statistic, one might reasonably conclude that it is intentionally derived to obfuscate. As an article by Rich Lowry points out, Major League Baseball could similarly argue that since they sell twenty million hot dogs and only play 2,430 baseball games per year, baseball constitutes just .012 percent of their activities. We all know, however, that MLB is not primarily a hot dog vendor. Planned Parenthood performs upwards of 300,000 abortions per year in the United States. If these procedures are really such a tiny part of what they do, you'd think they'd be willing to give them up. But somehow, I don't see that happening anytime soon.

The Large Enriched Germanium Experiment for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay (LEGEND)
Fig. 1: Projected half-life sensitivity of the several experimental phases of LEGEND to neutrinoless double-beta decay. Credits: J. Myslik and the LEGEND collaboration.
The LEGEND collaboration has formed by merging the two leading 76Ge-based neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) groups, MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR and GERDA. The observation of 0νββ, a lepton number conservation violating process beyond the Standard Model of particle physics, would reveal the nature of neutrinos as either Dirac or Majorana particles, and give hints on both neutrino absolute mass scale and ordering. By conclusively demonstrating the Majorana nature of neutrinos, i.e., the equivalence of the neutrino and the antineutrino, a detection could also lead to a better understanding of the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the early Universe. The expected experimental signature in the energy spectrum of the emitted electrons would be a peak-like signal at the Q-value, which is 2039 keV for the ββ-decay in 76Ge (Qββ). One of the main challenges for a detection is the unavoidable continuous 2νββ background, ranging up to Qββ. Thus, a sufficient energy resolution is needed to separate the signal from these background events. With germanium detectors, an excellent resolution on the order of 0.1-0.2% at Qββ can be achieved, which makes them one of the most preferable isotopes to search for 0νββ. Currently, the best limit on the half-life of 0νββ in 76Ge is T1/2 > 1.8·1026 yr, determined by the GERDA collaboration. The LEGEND collaboration aims to further improve the sensitivity to 0νββ via a phased experimental program. The ultimate goal of LEGEND is to achieve a discovery potential to half-lives of T1/2 ≈ 1028 yr, and thus to probe neutrino masses of the inverted ordering region.
LEGEND-200
Fig. 2: Detector array of LEGEND-200. Credits: M. Willers and the LEGEND collaboration.
In the first phase of LEGEND, approximately 200 kg of enriched 76Ge detectors will be operated. LEGEND-200 is located at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS), and largely reuses the existing GERDA infrastructure, including some of the germanium detectors, the outer water tank, and the inner cryostat. The cryostat itself is filled with liquid argon (LAr), which cools the detectors to around 87 K, shields them from external backgrounds, and acts as an active scintillation medium. To detect scintillation light, the volume is instrumented with wavelength shifting fibers, silicon photomultipliers, and wavelength-shifting reflectors. These can be used to veto background events that deposit part of their energy in the LAr. The installation and commissioning of the LAr veto instrumentation, as well as 140 kg of detector strings, had been finished recently, see Fig. 1. The beginning of the physics data taking is scheduled for winter 2022/2023. The full-scale operation of 200 kg of detector material will then be started in mid-2023, after another installation phase. After five years of operation, a discovery sensitivity of T1/2 ≥ 1027 yr can be expected, as indicated in Fig. 1.
LEGEND-1000
Fig. 3: Cryostat baseline design for LEGEND-1000. Credit: the LEGEND collaboration.
In the second stage, the final sensitivity goal shall be achieved by increasing the mass of the germanium detector array to at least 1000 kg, with a total run time of around one decade. Due to the long time scale needed for the production of the detector material, a novel baseline cryostat concept has been designed, as sketched in Fig. 3. It is planned to immerse the detectors into the cryostat in individual batches. In this way, data taking can continue with the detectors being already in operation when further batches will be installed. Discussions on the final location of the experiment in its subsequent stage are still ongoing, as in a different deep underground facility with a larger natural shielding, the background induced by cosmic muons could be reduced. In any case, LEGEND-1000, probing T1/2 ≥ 1028 yr, will be among the world leading experiments in the search for 0νββ decay in any isotope.
University of Zurich contributions: Calibration system
Fig. 4: Sketch of the LEGEND-200 calibration system.
Our group has very actively contributed to the installation of LEGEND-200 and future planning of LEGEND-1000. In particular, we are responsible for the LEGEND-200 calibration system. For the calibration of the germanium detectors, an upgraded version of the existing GERDA source insertion system is operated to deploy multiple 228Th sources per system into the cryostat, see Fig. 4.
Following this multiple source approach, we can homogeneously calibrate the entire detector array, to achieve an optimal energy resolution and a stable energy scale for each individual detector, by deploying four systems simultaneously. Our work focused on the needed update and extension of the existing calibration system, as well as hardware tests under realistic experimental conditions, such as the required cryogenic temperatures. Furthermore, we contribute to the monitoring and control software of the system, to ensure both a flexible handling and a constant operability of the calibration system, which had been commissioned during summer 2022.
Contributions: Wavelenth-shifting reflectors
Fig. 5: Wavelength shifting reflectors of LEGEND-200.
Additionally, we are involved in the design, installation, and characterization of the wavelength shifting reflectors for the liquid argon veto system. For LEGEND-200, these reflectors were mounted inside the cryostat and in-situ coated with the wavelength shifter TPB (tetraphenyl butadiene). This wavelength shifter emits blue light when illuminated with UV light, as shown in Fig. 5. The samples from these reflectors were characterized using a liquid argon setup in our lab at UZH (see details in ourpaper). For LEGEND-1000, we are currently working on the R&D of ean asily scalable WLSR based on polyethylene naphthalate (PEN).

Q: How to base64 encode image bytes in IE8 We need to base64 encode image element data using javascript in IE8 without 32 KB limit. Is there any way to achieve this?
We tried using canvas workaround
function getImageData(_id)
{
    var c = document.createElement('CANVAS');
    var ctx = c.getContext("2d");
    var img = document.getElementById(_id);
    ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
    var dataURL = c.toDataURL();
    return dataURL.replace(/^data:image\/(png|jpg);base64,/, "");
}

but unofortunately IE8 doesn't support canvas either. Tried to include ExploreCanvas with no success.
Is there any other workaround to base64 encode arbitrary size image in IE8?

Part of the success of stories like IT is the transformation of something innocent or mundane--like a clown--and making it unspeakably evil.
By Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa & Robert Hack
In comics, there are fewer titles more innocent than those in the Archie family tree, of which Sabrina the Teenage Witch is a sturdy branch. The Sabrina stories, from her first appearance in 1962 on through Melissa Joan Hart's onscreen portrayal, are safe and sexless, a neutered teenage riff on Bewitched, and gleefully ignorant of our country's shameful past regarding women accused of witchcraft.
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina changes all that. As Sabrina Spellman prepares to celebrate her 16th birthday, a dark figure from the past arrives to seek revenge. Visually, it takes the brightly colored world of Sabrina and smothers them in the colors of fall--oranges and browns and blood red. Trees are all leafless and the sky is always on the edge of dusk. Magic isn't used to help clean the house or finish homework, it summons demons and corrupts the innocent.
This time next year we'll get to see the comic come to life on TV courtesy of writer series Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, the creative force behind the CW's Riverdale. Until then, get this book in your hands as soon as possible. This book is a perfect companion to the spookiest month.

Gov. Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State has appealed to United States Government to intervene in the prevention of what he called, 'alleged harassment of electorate' in next week's governorship and state assembly elections.
Tambuwal made the request on Thursday when he received the US Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Stuart Symington, in Sokoto.
Tambuwal of the PDP is seeking re-election and he is being challenged by his former deputy, Ahmed Aliyu of the All Progressives Congress.
" Because our people were intimidated to the extent of failing to discharge their civic duties in the remaining elections, scheduled for March 9.
"As such, I want to appeal to the US envoy to call on the Nigerian government to allow the will of the people be granted during the forthcoming Governorship and State House of Assembly elections.
"The opposition has engaged in post-election violence, with attacks on citizens and razing many properties and houses within and outside the metropolis in the state, in a show of terror against perceived opponents and non-partisan members of the public." he said.
Earlier, Symington said that he was in Sokoto to encourage peace throughout the electioneering period and beyond.
"There is no any development that can come without peace, so I appeal on all stakeholders and the good people of Sokoto to ensure peaceful polls," he said.
