A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF LARIMER COUNTY, COLORADO, ESTABLISHED A "RIGHT TO FARM AND RANCH" POLICY
WHEREAS, the changing nature of land use and demography in particular parts of, and throughout, Larimer County have increased the incidence of conflicts between agricultural operators and visitors to and residents of rural Larimer County, and have begun to threaten the economic viability of agricultural operations; and
WHEREAS, examples of such conflicts include, but are not limited to: harassment of livestock and livestock losses due to free roaming dogs; trespass by livestock; livestock on highway and County roads; leaving gates open; fence construction and maintenance; chemical applications; maintenance of ditches across private property, storm water management; burning of ditches; complaints about noise, dust and odor; disposal of dead animals; weeds and pest control; and trespass; and
WHEREAS, it is desirable to protect agricultural operators from complaints about legal and non-negligent agricultural operations and activities; and
WHEREAS, it is desirable to educate the public and non-agricultural residents and visitors to Larimer County about the existence, validity, and importance of the County's agricultural operations and activities; and
WHEREAS, it is desirable that the Board of County Commissioners provide a forum for the informal and non-binding resolution of disputes between agricultural operators and non-agricultural residents and visitors to Larimer County; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to this resolution the Board shall attempt and aspire to:
conserve, enhance, and encourage ranching, farming, and all manner of agricultural activities and operations within and throughout Larimer County where appropriate:
minimize potential conflicts between agricultural and nonagricultural users of land in the County;
educate new rural residents and long-time agricultural operators alike to their rights, responsibilities, and obligations relating to agricultural activities; and
integrate planning efforts to provide for the retention of traditional and important agricultural lands in agricultural production as well as the opportunity for reasonable residential and other development; and
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners ("the board"), pursuant to C.R.S. 30-11-107(1)(bb), has the power to provide for the preservation of cultural, historic, and architectural history within the County; and
WHEREAS, the Board, pursuant to C.R.S. 29-20-104(1)(c), (g) & (h), has the authority to plan for and regulate the use of land by preserving areas of historical importance, regulating the use of land on the basis of its impact on the community or surrounding areas, and otherwise planning for and regulating the use of land so as to provide planned and orderly use of land and protection of the environment in a manner consistent with constitutional rights; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article 3.5. Title 35, C.R.S., it is the declared policy of the State of Colorado to conserve, protect, and encourage the development and improvement of its agricultural land for the production of food and other agricultural products; and further that the general assembly recognizes that when nonagricultural land uses extend into agricultural areas, agricultural operations are forced to cease operations and many others are discouraged from making investments in farm improvements; and that it is the purpose of the Article to reduce the loss to the State of Colorado of its agricultural resources by limiting the circumstances under which agricultural operations may be deemed to be a nuisance; and is conforming with existing state regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Board has determined that it is desirable and beneficial to the citizens of Larimer County to establish and adopt by resolution a Right to Farm and Ranch Policy involving the elements of protection of agricultural operations, education of property owners and the public, and resolution of disputes; and
WHEREAS, the establishment and adoption of such a Right to Farm and Ranch Policy would serve and promote the public health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of Larimer County.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Larimer County, Colorado, that:
Policy Statement. It is the policy of the Board of County Commissioners of Larimer County, as set forth herein that: Ranching, farming, and all manner of agricultural activities and operations within and throughout Larimer County are integral elements of and necessary for the continued vitality of the County's history, economy, landscape, open space, lifestyle, and culture. Given their importance to Larimer County, Northern Colorado, and the State, agricultural lands and operations are worthy of recognition and protection.
Colorado is a "Right-to-Farm" State pursuant to C.R.S 35-3.5-101, et seq. Landowners, residents and visitors must be prepared to accept the activities, sights, sounds, and smells of Larimer County's agricultural operations as a normal and necessary aspect of living in a County with a strong rural character and a healthy agricultural sector. Those with an urban sensitivity may perceive such activities, sights, sounds, and smells only as inconvenience, eyesore, noise, and odor. However, State law and County policy provide that ranching, farming, or other agricultural activities and operations within Larimer County shall not be considered to be nuisances so long as operated in conformance with the law and in a non-negligent manner. Therefore, all must be prepared to encounter noises, odors, lights, mud, dust, smoke, chemicals, machinery on public roads, livestock on public roads, storage and disposal of manure, and the application by spraying or otherwise of chemical fertilizers, soil amendments, herbicides, and pesticides, and one or more of which may naturally occur as a part of legal and non-negligent agricultural operations.
In addition, all owners of land, whether Agricultural Business, Farm, Ranch or Residence, have obligations under State law and County regulation with regard to the maintenance of fences, livestock must be fenced out (open range). Irrigators have the right to maintain irrigation ditches through established easements that transports water for their use and said irrigation ditches are not to be used for the dumping of refuse.. Landowners are responsible for controlling of weeds, keeping pets under control, using property in accordance with zoning, and maintenance of resources of the property wisely ( water, soil, animals, plants, air, and human resources). Residents and landowners are encouraged to learn about these rights and responsibilities and act as good neighbors and citizens of the County.
Conflicts include, but are not limited to: trespass; harassment of livestock and livestock losses due to free roaming dogs; trespass by livestock, livestock on highways, county and private roads; leaving gates open; fence maintenance; harvest and transportation of agricultural and silvicultural crops; agricultural and prescribed burning; complaints of noise, dust, aesthetics, and odor resulting from production and processing operations; disposal of dead animals; weed, pest and predator control.
The Board of County Commissioners shall establish a dispute resolution procedure with mediators to informally resolve conflicts that may arise between landowners or residents relating to agricultural operations or activities.
When rural residents cannot come to an agreement or understanding about fences, ditches, livestock, or other agricultural issues, this may be the forum used to resolve disputes. Mediators must be knowledgeable, solution oriented, and at least one such mediator in each dispute must be directly involved in agriculture or an agricultural producer must serve in an advisory role to the trained mediator.
Public Education and Information Campaign. The Board, with the primary assistance of the Colorado State University Cooperative Extension Larimer County Office and through the use of County Staff as needed, shall support efforts to educate and inform the public of the Right to Farm and Ranch Policy.
People need to be aware that children and adults are exposed to different hazards in the country than in an urban or suburban setting. Farm equipment, ponds and irrigation ditches, electrical power for pumps / center pivot operations and electrical fences, traffic, use of agricultural chemicals, weeds such as: sand burs, puncture vines that cause mechanical injury, territorial farm dogs, and livestock present real threats to children and adults. Controlling children's activities is important, not only for their safety, but also for the protection of the farmer's livelihood. Open irrigation waters are essential to agriculture and have legal right of ways that must not be obstructed. Open ditch operations often result in seepage and spills of storm waters in unpredictable locations and times.
Property Owner Notification. The Board shall notify the owners of land within
the County by the following means:
This document will be distributed in all possible manners that the budget allows
Whenever a building permit is issued for new construction in the unincorporated area of Larimer County, the Building Department shall provide owner educational material.
The board shall initiate amendments to the County subdivision regulations to provide that notification of the Policy and the Policy Statement shall be made at the time of any subdivision or related land use approval and a note to that effect shall appear on any Plat outside municipalities growth areas so approved.
In addition, the Board shall encourage title companies and real estate brokers county-wide to voluntarily disclose the Policy to purchasers of real property in the County. To that effect, the board shall schedule presentation to the Board of Realtors and other professional organizations to explain the Policy and distribute copies of the policy.
Larimer County should utilize existing and develop needed intergovernmental agreements with the cities, towns and other governmental agencies to ensure that this resolution is effective in those agricultural areas that are within the limits of Larimer County.
ADOPTED this 3rd day of September, 1998.

Every now and then some WordPress themes will like to impose their styling onto plugins. This is in order to create the most unified design experience possible, and in most cases it's just fine. In the case of Social Warfare though, you likely don't want your theme imposing its own color styling since we give you control of that right inside the plugin settings.
If you find that your Social Warfare button icons/text/counts are not in the color the should be, it may be that your theme is overriding the plugin styling.
Once that code is saved in there the plugin styling should now appear as expected.
However, if you are trying to get your icons/text a color other than white, it's a tad more complicated.
You will need to identify the class in your theme that is changing the color. You can identify this by going using the Inspect Element tool in Google Chrome and selecting the <a ...> section of the button. You will then be able to identify the CSS class that is imposing another color on our link element.
Now, all you need to do is add :not(.nc_tweet) to the end of that class inside your stylesheet and that should fix the issue. If it doesn't, go ahead and drop us a line and we'll figure it out for you.

Dayna Stephens: Listening to Prince under the Eucalyptus Tree
Photo by Ethen Aardvark, from wikimedia commons
As you're posthumously nerding out this week in internet reconnaissance, looking for the shreddiest of Prince, a good place to start might be the "Small Club" bootleg—a legendary artifact among fans for documenting his live chops in high quality soundboard audio. While Prince was noted for his mastery as a multi-instrumentalist, he definitely shines through as a guitarist on this tape.
You might also take a moment to consider some stellar collaborations between other notable contemporary guitarists and the saxophonist-composer Dayna Stephens who, in preparation for his performance this Saturday with trumpeter Philip Dizack, was kind enough to sit down and share his thoughts on the recently fallen pop idol among other things.
Here is Dayna laying down some EWI thoughts on "Cosmic Patience" in 360 Virtual Reality with Gilad Hekselman on a roof in Brooklyn.
Here he is with Julian Lage, on "On The Trail" – Live at Berklee:
The Jazz Gallery: Can you tell me more about this project with Philip—is it a continuation of the music you presented on your last date at the Gallery?
Dayna Stephens: Philip and I have been writing music together for the past year and we've accumulated quite a bit of tunes. This will be a bit different from our last performance at the Gallery—there will be a couple of tunes we wrote together but this is a unique project for trumpet, trombone and tenor as a front line—basically the Messengers' normal instrumentation. The music is very different than the Messengers, [laughs] but I've always liked that instrumentation. It's also the instrumentation on John Coltrane's Blue Train which is one of my favorite records of all time. All together, we'll be playing selections from the last 15 years of my music.
TJG: How did that relationship with Philip come about? How has it unfolded since?
DS: We had the idea of just talking about music and hanging out. Then in the moment, we decided we should try to write a tune together. That tune was called "Repeating History," the first of six or seven tunes we've done. Since that first meeting the process has been easy but it took some effort to find an effective approach to writing efficiently as neither of us had cowritten music with other folks that much. We experimented with a few different ways of writing. On the last three songs, we kind of settled on one person taking the melody, which is usually Phil, writing the bass motion together, and then usually I'll take it and add the harmony to what those two different notes are implying. The results are some very unique sounding songs that I think neither of us would have come up with on our own. So I really enjoy it.
TJG: Tell me more about the Messengers' influence on you. What did you listen to?
DS: It's been a minute since I've checked that out. I'm actually not listening to it right now because I don't want to mimic anything but Caravan comes to mind.
I think the function of that band, in the history of jazz music is really important because it showcased a lot of the younger players that maybe weren't as established, players that weren't household names when they were in that band. Blakey was usually the oldest guy in the band and in our configuration, although Nick Vayenas is actually a year older than me, its a similar case for me because I've put together some younger players. Maybe folks that know my music haven't heard these guys yet.
TJG: Is there any sort of etiquette in the community around showcasing younger players?
DS: Not necessarily, in general people tend to play with people they click with on a personal level also, not just a musical level. I tend not to care as much about the personal side of it. I mean if I have a strong conflict with someone I would care, but my main focus is: what is it going to sound like, what is it going to feel like when we count off the tunes.
TJG: Artistic faculty outweighs personality in this case….
DS: Yeah, there are a lot of guys who don't get as much recognition because they have a less social personality or whatever. I almost tend to have a lot more sympathy for those guys and want to even showcase cats like that because you know, none of us can help who the fuck we are, what our past is and how its brought us to this moment.
What's your favorite ice cream?
TJG: Chocolate.
DS: Ok, so there is no way in the world that you would have chosen Eucalyptus flavor because you've never had it, you've never had the opportunity to know that it exists. You know what I'm saying? You're only choosing from the shit you've been exposed to—is that really free will? The one thing we have in common is music so why not let the music unite us in ways that other situations may not. I mean music has always been a uniter anyway.
It's a long discussion, I don't know, fuck it, it's something I've thought a lot about.
TJG: People are sleeping on Eucalyptus ice cream.
Dayna: [Laughs] There are a lot of Eucalyptus plants where I grew up, a smell from my childhood. They're really from Australia and they made their way to California. They were in big form by the time I was growing up.
The Jazz Gallery: You were recently checking out some mouthpieces the other day with Ted Klum. Tell me a bit more about this process.
DS: This is a very geeky aspect of saxophone playing. The mouthpiece is really the first thing that connects you to the instrument. The way its designed, the space between the reed and the actual mouth piece, the inside of the mouthpiece – how small it or big the space is, all of it factors into what comes out of the horn and how comfortable it is for you to connect with that horn. Its a very intimate process [laughs].
Everyone has their own particulars based on their own physique and their own musicality. In high school I played metal mouthpieces partially because I thought they looked cooler but I also knew that Coltrane played one, in addition to a lot of other guys, including my grandfather. One time I was teaching in probably junior or senior year of high school, and a kid had a hard rubber mouthpiece. He let me try it and, immediately I knew that was the sound that I had always wanted [laughs]. From that point on, I've always played hard rubber mouthpieces.
I've had many different mouthpieces. I'd go five, six or seven years just using one piece. The one I've been using now I've had for last two or three years. The last two are both from Ted Klum.
However, this last Friday, Ted asked me if I've ever tried any of their metal pieces and I never had just because I knew that its not what I was looking for, but I tried this one that he had and it really intrigued me. I actually spent the money and bought it; I even used it on a recording session yesterday. It's not as bright and edgy as most metal mouthpieces. It retains a lot of warmth that I like in rubber. So I'm having a little fling with this one at the moment if you will. I feel like I'm cheating [laughs].
TJG: 2016 will be the year of "Metal" Dayna—do you listen to Metal?
DS: I like Metallica…and well I guess Nirvana is considered grunge, but I'm not offended by rock at all, good music is good music. Prince was good music by the way.
TJG: What was Prince's roll in your life? Did you listen to him a lot?
DS: I was really young when the film Purple Rain came out, about eight years old. I remember all the hoopla surrounding it, but I was way too young to get any of the references [laughs]. I remember the sound in the house though, it was something that everyone was into. I don't know if I've honestly met anyone in my whole life that has a dispute about this cat, [laughs] maybe they haven't been exposed to him yet, but no one has ever said "I don't like Prince," or they thinks that Prince sucks. There's just no question, I mean people in all genres of music appreciate this cat.
I still feel like a 37 year old me is not as comfortable in his own skin as let's say a 19 year old Prince was. He was unique and disciplined—I shouldn't use the word passion, I mean I'm passionate about my music but this guy—his work ethic and his obsession with the art was matched by no one that I've ever heard of. I can't think of a genre where a cat has been as prolific. I mean Duke Ellington wrote thousands of tunes but this was in an era where there were no music videos, dance routines or imagery. Prince created a whole world, its like he needed his own purple planet to match the universe he created. I don't know, it's unbelievable that he's talked about in the past tense in at this point.
I wasn't as obsessed as a lot of folks I know about his music but I've known his genius since as long as I've known who he was. My first saxophone teacher Norbert Stachel played saxophone with him many years ago and I knew even back then that that was a big deal because Prince played all the instruments. For him to hire someone else to play a different instrument was a big deal. I still think the world of Norbert, he lives here in New York now. He's plays every single woodwind that is known to man. He's a freak of nature saxophone player.
TJG: You've played with so many people and make a point to do so, but you noted in your last interview that 3WI has been your most consistent band to date—how is this a different experience for you now?
Dayna: It's the only band that I've ever had more than one or two gigs with. At the Monk Institute it was seven of us playing in that same band for two years, and I experienced developing an ongoing thing with the same personnel. I'm at the point right now where I'm kind of missing that and 3WI is kind of filling that void. With 3WI being a trio, it is more financially viable and the fact that we're all committed to building something with it, makes it a lot more conducive to touring. Putting out a record is a really important next step at this point.
TJG: And you're more conducive to touring now…
Yes, six months and one and one half weeks ago, I had a kidney transplant. There is a three month recovery time and in the three months since I recovered, I can count on maybe one hand the days I've had off, its been absolutely nuts. During those three months when I was recovering I had a lot of time to write, so now on the other side of this life changing experience I find myself needing to prioritize my time a lot more productively and effectively. I'm having to readjust to this new capacity of energy. I have to find out how much I can use this battery before it runs out. Its coming together, I'm just realizing I can't say yes to everything like I did before. There are more opportunities then there were before now because I have more opportunity to travel. I'm going back to Europe next week. I feel very fortunate. Not that I've had a choice how the last few chapters went, and not that I have a lot of choice in how the next few chapters will go, but I want to do all in my power to accomplish and experience all the things I've dreamed of.
Dayna Stephens will perform at The Jazz Gallery this Saturday, April 30th, 2016. This performance features Dayna Stephens on tenor saxophone, Philip Dizack on trumpet, Nick Vayenas on trombone, Gadi Lehavi on piano, Rick Rosato on bass and Jonathan Pinson on drums. Sets are at 7:30 and 9:30p.m. Each set is $22 general admission and $12 for members. Purchase tickets here.

Realty Crowdfunding Exponential Growth: Numbers Don't Lie
October 31, 2014 By VREIClub Leave a Comment
Just as it gained traction in mainstream real estate investing, realty crowdfunding has grown rapidly into an industry of its own. According to a report by the WSJ, funds raised by U.S. crowdfunding platforms in 2013 were in excess of $135 million. With just a handful of platforms visible in the landscape previously, the numbers have soared today to over a hundred, with nearly 70 operating from the U.S. alone. These platforms, which offer different services to their clients, have created a niche for themselves and are experiencing phenomenal growth levels.
Platforms Making Landmark Growth
Fundrise, a DC-based real estate firm, is an example of a platform that has registered phenomenal growth levels in the industry. Founded in 2010 by the Miller brothers, this pioneer firm has been a pacesetter in the industry by offering unique solutions for both accredited and non-accredited investors.
While the firm is actively involved in connecting high profile investors to high profile deals across the nation, it is also committed to ensuring that average investors are connected to worthwhile deals in their localities. In essence, it is a marketplace for both the elite and the masses seeking to invest in high-yielding real estate opportunities. This way, the big investors benefit from a well-diversified portfolio spread across properties throughout the country while locals get to invest in projects in their communities.
The vision to foster local investment in creative urban development as one of its major area of operation was birthed when the founders observed a disconnection between the projects that were executed by institutional groups in a community and the unique needs of the particular community. This motivated them to pursue state exemptions which allowed participation from non-accredited investors as contained in Regulation A of the SEC laws.
Real estate crowdfunding platforms offer different forms of services to their clients. While some offer only debt-based services, others specialize in equity deals. Still, there are some that offer a mix of both debt and equity crowdfunding services. Fundrise falls into the latter category as it offers both a hybrid of mezzanine debt and preferred equity to investors.
The range of investment for a project offering on Fundrise is a minimum of $100 and an average of $10,000. The platform offers returns of between 10-12% on investment.
A recent infographic released by the firm reveals the following statistics:
$54 Billion from 373 Companies in Assets Under Management
Fundrise has 373 registered companies with total assets under management that stand at $54 billion as of September 2014. Interpreting this figure in relation to the GDP of a country, it is greater than that of DR Congo , the fourth most populated country in Africa.
For those conversant with jets, it is the value of 931 G6 Jets. In relation to gold, it is worth 1,188 tons. Finally, for the tech guys, it can be equated to 60% of the value of Amazon, 65% of Sony, 90% of Ebay, 720% of Linkedin, 540% of Best Buy and 300% of Adobe.
41 States Reached
Fundrise has helped 373 registered real estate companies under its platform raise funds to execute projects in 41 states in the U.S. (representing 82% of all states) that include the top 10 metropolises: New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Washington, Philadelphia, Miami, Atlanta, and Boston.
The size of the land developed by these companies is estimated at 1.24 billion square feet or 44.3 miles, which is almost twice the size of Manhattan.
Better Days Still Ahead
The numbers don't lie. The realty crowdfunding industry is expanding by leaps and bounds. With the U.S. property market currently estimated at $11 trillion, and with funds raised from platforms placed at an excess of $135 million, for realty crowdfunding platforms like Fundrise, it seems like better days are still ahead.

Q: Update iOS app from new project I've an application on the Apple Store.
I restart the project of nothing and I would like to make an update of the existing project.
How to submit this code as new build on itunes connect?
How do I delete the existing application data from my users' devices?

A: You have to use the same bundle identifier as in your previous project. If you still have access to this Xcode project, open it, select your project name in the upper left tree view, the select your project target on the right (not the project, but the target) and select "General" in the upper menu. You will see "Bundle identifier". Use the same and you are done.
If you do not have access to your old xcode project, download the app from the app store into iTunes. Right click the app inside iTunes and select "Reveal in Finder". Copy the .ipa file and rename it to .zip, then open the zip archive and have a look into the file "iTunesMetadata.plist", which contains a key named "softwareVersionBundleId". This is the bundle id you have to enter into your xcode project.

A: Upload with the previous apps Bundle identifier and new version, I think this is mostly enough to update your existing application.

You are here: Home / Village Development in Myanmar Project
After widespread flooding and landslides caused by heavy monsoon rains since the beginning of June 2016, Myanmar, particularly in the northern regions, had suffered immense agricultural and economic losses. The floods have not only damaged roads, bridges and communal buildings, but also destroyed acres of farmland, most of which were paddy fields, and rendered a massive blow to the annual paddy harvest.
Despite the efforts of the Burmese Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation to help farmers replant their paddy crop before the end of the harvest season, such as the provision of paddy seeds, replanting will remain infeasible unless and until the spillways destroyed by the floods were rebuilt. Reconstruction will require various types of equipment and machinery, such as digging machines, water pumps, piping and drilling accessories.
Net ticket proceeds from "Lux Aeterna", our concert in January 2017, was donated to the Hong Kong Christian Council's "Village Development in Myanmar Project". Three sets of pumps were donated to the Hsar Phyu Su Village, three hours north-west of Yangon.
No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted; we hope that you would also play a part in helping the flood victims rebuild their livelihood.

Hsar Phyu Su Village
Net ticket proceeds from "Lux Aeterna", our concert in January 2017, were donated to the Hong Kong Christian Council's "Village Development in Myanmar Project" towards three sets of pumps for the Hsar Phyu Su Village. This remote village is located 3.5 hours northwest of Yangon and the last leg of the journey can only be made by motorcycles on muddy tracks. Agriculture is the main source of income for the villagers.
The region was badly hit by monsoon rains in mid-2016 when floods and landslides destroyed infrastructure and farmland:
In February 2017, Mr. Kevin Cheng of The Learners Chorus, Ms. Winnie Wong of the Hong Kong Christian Council and Ms. Ni Sat Tin Htoo of HKCC's local partner visited the village to see the pumps in operation. These pumps have helped irrigate part of the village's paddy fields and get the village back on its feet. The first harvest in April is expected to bring in ~US$4,000 for the village, which the villagers plan to reinvest into buying more machinery for irrigation, hopefully starting a virtuous cycle of improvement for their livelihood in this remote location.

Regional clustering of shared neutralization determinants on primary isolates of clade C human immunodeficiency virus type 1 from South Africa.
Clade C is one of the most prevalent genetic subtypes of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in the world today and one of the least studied with respect to neutralizing antibodies. Most information on HIV-1 serology as it relates to neutralization is derived from clade B. Clade C primary isolates of HIV-1 from South Africa and Malawi were shown here to resemble clade B isolates in their resistance to inhibition by soluble CD4 and their sensitivity to neutralization by human monoclonal antibody immunoglobulin G1b12 and, to a lesser extent, 2F5. Unlike clade B isolates, however, all 16 clade C isolates examined resisted neutralization by 2G12. Infection with clade C HIV-1 in a cohort of female sex workers in South Africa generated antibodies that neutralized the autologous clade C isolate and T-cell-line-adapted (TCLA) strains of clade B. Neutralization of clade B TCLA strains was much more sensitive to the presence of autologous gp120 V3 loop peptides compared to the neutralization of clade C isolates in most cases. Thus, the native structure of gp120 on primary isolates of clade C will likely pose a challenge for neutralizing antibody induction by candidate HIV-1 vaccines much the same as it has for clade B. The autologous neutralizing antibody response following primary infection with clade C HIV-1 in South Africa matured slowly, requiring at least 4 to 5 months to become detectable. Once detectable, extensive cross-neutralization of heterologous clade C isolates from South Africa was observed, suggesting an unusual degree of shared neutralization determinants at a regional level. This high frequency of cross-neutralization differed significantly from the ability of South African clade C serum samples to neutralize clade B isolates but did not differ significantly from results of other combinations of clade B and C reagents tested in checkerboard assays. Notably, two clade C serum samples obtained after less than 2 years of infection neutralized a broad spectrum of clade B and C isolates. Other individual serum samples showed a significant clade preference in their neutralizing activity. Our results suggest that clades B and C are each comprised of multiple neutralization serotypes, some of which are more clade specific than others. The clustering of shared neutralization determinants on clade C primary HIV-1 isolates from South Africa suggests that neutralizing antibodies induced by vaccines will have less epitope diversity to overcome at a regional level.

I like to walk. I like to bike. I like to walk and bike in New York City. And during the past three weeks I have had a wonderful time walking in various New York City neighborhoods, and showing groups of people Jewish New York. Or to be more specific, historically Jewish New York. During these past three weeks I have led five walking tours of Lost Synagogues in the Bronx, Manhattan and Brooklyn, three of the five boroughs of New York City.
On the morning of Sunday, July 10th I conducted a Bronx Lost Synagogues tour, shepherding a group of 34 adults (and two toddlers in a double stroller) as we walking around the Grand Concourse and a few nearby avenues (Gerard, Walton, Creston, etc.) to look at a dozen former synagogue buildings. During the evening of Tuesday, July 19th I took a group of five adults to see former synagogues (some in rather poor shape) in parts of Brooklyn such as Williamsburg and Bed-Stuy. The next evening I conducted a tour for eight people throughout the Lower East Side, to see former and current Jewish structures, and the evening after that a cheerful couple accompanied me as we walked the streets of lower and central Harlem, to see former synagogues. And to top it off, the evening of Wednesday, July 27th I brought an impressive 40 people around to see a few former shuls in the East Village/Alphabet City region of Manhattan. That fifth tour was sponsored by the Lower East Side Jewish Conservancy, and it was the first time that I got to use a portable microphone system with an amp.
What kinds of people show up for these tours? As far as I could tell, all or the vast majority were Jewish, but they ran the gamut of observance levels and ages. Several had personal ties to the neighborhoods we toured but others did not, and thus came out of curiosity. In fact, a number were not born in New York City nor even in the United States. Overall they joined my tours to learn about how Jewish life has changed over time in New York City, particularly when it comes to demographic shifts.
Leading these tours is very gratifying for me, and I relish the role of being an educator outside of the classroom. (No test grading! No filling in bubble sheets for attendance! Highly interested and motivated students!) And one of the benefits to me of conducting these tours has been that I have learned a lot from the people in my groups.
During the East Village tour we briefly stopped by a former synagogue on East 6th Street (451, to be exact) that had served as the Proskurover Zion Congregation. I spoke about the building and pointed out remaining external Judaica, on a building that is now private residences, when one of the women in the tour group spoke up and said "I'm from Proskurov."
About twenty minutes later when we were inside another former shul (at 256 East 4th Street) I invited the woman from Proskurov to speak to us all about her memories. The woman, who is in her late 60s, told us that she had been born there but did not remember much about her life there. I followed up by asking her if she knew that our tour group would be stopping by a synagogue founded by people who came from her home town; she said no. But she was grateful for this unanticipated link to her past, and that I helped her to get in touch with her roots, in some fashion.
I plan out these tours and I assume certain things will happen, certain questions will be asked, certain observations will be made. They are somewhat standard by now. But each tour really does have its unique factors, its surprises and revelations. I cherish this.

Penn National CEO Urges States To Resist VGT Expansion
DATE PUBLISHED : MONDAY, AUGUST 31ST 2020
Penn National Gaming CEO says VGTs have 'decimated' Illinois casino industry
Company's purchase of Illinois slot route operator was purely to protect its casinos
American Gaming Association CEO urges states to include casinos in liability protection laws
Despite owning a video gaming terminal (VGT) business, the boss of Penn National Gaming has urged state lawmakers searching for revenue to close budget shortfalls to protect brick-and-mortar casinos and be wary of Illinois' experience with VGTs.
In 2015, Penn National purchased Prairie State Gaming, which at the time operated more than 1,100 terminals at 270 bars and other venues across Illinois.
But CEO Jay Snowden said the move was a "difficult decision… to protect against the onslaught of the industry on our brick-and-mortar (casino) properties."
"I can tell you first-hand the negative implications of distributed gaming," Snowden said last week during a webinar hosted by the National Council of Legislators from Gaming States (NCLGS).
Snowden said VGTs are "extremely difficult to properly regulate (and) I think regulators in Illinois would agree with us."
VGTs also "destroy jobs and deter capital investment," Snowden added, while providing easy access for problem gamblers and minors.
Snowden said almost 40 percent of Illinois gamblers who have signed up to self-exclude did so due to VGTs.
VGTs began being installed inside Illinois bars and restaurants in 2012, about three years after the Illinois Video Gaming Act was passed. As of July 31, there were 35,680 VGTs at 7,137 locations statewide, according to the Illinois Gaming Board (IGB).
The machines generated $1.68bn in revenue in 2019, some 25 percent more than the $1.35bn earned by Illinois' 10 land-based casinos.
Snowden told the NCLGS webinar that VGTs also impact lottery revenue and casino employment. He said casino employment in Illinois has dropped by 20 percent since VGTs were introduced and "those jobs were not replaced by the VGT industry."
The Penn National boss' comments come as states appear likely to consider a variety of gambling expansion options as they respond to the budgetary impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Penn National is also a licensed VGT operator in its home state of Pennsylvania.
But VGTs in Pennsylvania are limited to truck stops meeting certain criteria and casinos are opposed to a bill by Republican state Senate Majority Leader Jake Corman to expand the program to bars and taverns like Illinois.
Penn National is also among Missouri casino operators opposing legislation to authorize video lottery terminals in convenience locations.
Snowden said the industry was "at a crossroads today (with) the coronavirus and some budget issues in states."
But he described the legalization of VGTs as a regressive solution, or easy fix, for budget problems.
"We have an opportunity to partner … and find new tax generation for the states and local communities that are also supportive of the industry,"
Snowden was joined on the webinar by Republican state Senator Jon Ford of Indiana; Keith Pickard, Republican state Senator from Nevada; and Howard Glazer, global head of government affairs and special initiatives at Scientific Games.
Bill Miller, president and CEO of the American Gaming Association (AGA), also spoke to the webinar audience about the industry's need to innovate around the use of cashless payments on the casino floor.
According to AGA research, 57 percent of past-year casino-goers say having the option to use a digital or contactless payment option on the casino floor is important to them.
"The availability of digital payments will influence consumer choices and support consumer confidence as they begin to return to casinos," Miller said.
Snowden agreed, saying it was "crazy" that casinos were the only legitimate industry left still doing 100 percent of business in cash.
Miller also urged state lawmakers to include gaming in any liability protection measures they may consider.
"Gaming companies – like so many others – could face additional financial challenges in the form of a potential wave of COVID-related lawsuits from customers and others alleging the business failed to take adequate steps to protect them from the virus," the AGA boss said.
Although AGA is continuing to advocate for nationwide liability protections in Congress, Miller noted several states have stepped in to grant them, including Nevada, Arkansas and Louisiana.
"Liability protection is essential to allow our industry to reopen expeditiously once given government clearance, by removing the prospect of lawsuits claiming the industry reopened before it was safe," Miller said.

Is there an LCLSX function with ND6 that can connect to SQL 2000?
I am considering upgrading our company to ND6; however, some important databases utilize an LCLSX OLEDB Connector to MS SQL 2000 and I cannot lose this functionality when migrating. Is there an LCLSX function with ND6 that I can use to handle this? The budget will not allow for the purchase of LEI.
The OLEDB connector is still available in 6.0 thru 6.5. Should it become unavailable at some point in the future, you'll be able to use ODBC.

Tommy Batchelor is an American dancer currently residing in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

Career

Batchelor began his  training at the age of four at the "Dance Factory" in Minnesota, later continuing his training at Bak Middle School of the Arts in Palm Beach County, Florida, Nicole's Dance Studio, and Palm Beach Ballet Center.

Batchelor began his dancing career with two productions of The Nutcracker.  Both of Batchelor's performances occurred with the Miami City Ballet in 2006 and 2010.

After his successful audition, Batchelor was cast in the part of "Billy" in the Broadway production of Billy Elliot: The Musical.  Batchelor played his first performance on February 10, 2009.  He played the Part of Billy until December 11, 2009.  Batchelor left the Broadway production to reprise his role as "Billy" at the Oriental Theatre in Chicago, Illinois.  Batchelor performed in Chicago as Billy between March 19, 2010 and October 10, 2010.
Playing Billy Elliot required Tommy to be on stage for most of two hours and fifty minutes, acting and singing in a Northern British accent, dancing ballet, tap, and interpretive dance. "It's a lot of work," said Tommy, "but I love it, and the more you do it, and the more stamina you develop, the more fun it is."
At the age of 18, Tommy continued his career joining the cast of "The Who's Tommy" as a dance soloist and ensemble member at the Short North Stage, Columbus, Ohio. Tommy currently attends The Ohio State University (OSU) as a Dance Major; performing in such productions as Dance Downtown and Drums Downtown with OSU.

Inspired by an article in The Great Discontent about a fellow lover of snail mail, art director Julia Parris. Julia opened up her personal Valentines project up to the public in 2013, the yearly handmade valentine exchange helps to share the love around the globe.
Armed with pencils and my sewing machine, I set out to create 10 cards and be part of this year's swap. As love comes in all colours, pink and lots of hearts were dispensed with. In their place was a quote hand drawn on each card, with stitched couples in love.


The Geneva Area City Schools has a proud history successfully maintained through the efforts of the district's students, employees and the communities that are a part of the district. It has been the cooperation and collaboration of the entire community that has created "Geneva Pride". It has been my honor to be part of the great traditions of Geneva as the Superintendent of Geneva Area City Schools. Our goal will be to continue to challenge our students, teachers and staff to be the best they can be in every aspect of the educational process. We will continue to meet our present needs while constantly looking to the future for ways to enrich and engage our students in the areas of academics, arts and athletics.
Despite the many changes in education today, I look forward to the challenge of leading the Geneva school district. I realize that there are many difficult decisions ahead but it will take all of us working together to maintain the positive energy in our district. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or comments. I am here to work with our community to make the Geneva Schools better with each passing day!

Mawlana Habib al-Rahman al-A'zami was born in 1319 A.H. (101 CE) in the small town of Maunath Bhanjan in the Azamgarh district of what now constitutes the state of Uttar Pradesh in the Indian Union. His father, Mawlana Muhammad Sabir (d.1365 A.H.) was a man of learning and piety. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman acquired his early education in his hometown and showed signs of exceptional brilliance from an early age. Mawlana Sabir took special interest in the education of his gifted child and put him under the care of a renowned local scholar, Mawlana 'Abd al-Ghaffar (d.1341 A.H.), who was a pupil of the celebrated scholar Mawlana Rashid Ahmad Gangohi (d.1323 A.H.). Young Habib al-Rahman spent a few years under his tutelage and accompanied him to Banaras and Gorakhpur in the course of his teaching itinerary. In 1919 he took admission in the famed Dar al-Ulum at Deoband. However, he had to discontinue his education due to ill-health. After recovery he did a brief teaching stint at Madrasah Mazhar al-Ulum in Banaras. His insatiable thirst for knowledge took him again to Deoband, where he had the good fortune of sitting at the feet of stalwarts like Anwar Shah Kashmiri (d. 1352 A.H.), Shabbir Ahmad 'Uthmani (d. 1396 A.H.) and Mawlana Asghar Husain (d.1364 A.H.). In the meantime, the Dar al -Ulum got caught up in the flurry of the nationalist movement and Mawlana Habib al-Rahman had to leave without formally completing his education. He completed the formal Nizamia course at Darul Ulum in 1922 and took up a teaching assignment there. In 1343 A.H. he was invited to head Madrasah Mazhar al-Ulum at Banaras. In 1347 A.H. joined Miftah al-Ulum at Mau as Shaykh al-Hadith and head of the madrasa. After two decades of distinguished and dedicated service he resigned of his own accord in 1369 A.H. and devoted himself full time to research.
In spite of his indifference to active politics he was persuaded by the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru to contest the assembly election from the Azamgarh constituency in Uttar Pradesh. He won the election, without any canvassing, in 1952 and shifted his resident to Lucknow. Taking advantage of his stay at Lucknow, the Rector of Dar al-Ulum Nadwat al-Ulama, Mawlana Abu'l-Hasan 'Ali Nadavi, requested Mawlana Habib al-Rahman to lecture on Hadith at Nadwah. He acceded to the request and taught the Sahih of Bukhari for one year without any remuneration.
Though Mawlana Habib al-Rahman was well-versed in all branches of Islamic learning, including Tafsir (commentary on the Quran), Fiqh (Islamic law), Sirah (biography of Prophet Muhammad) and Tarikh (historiography), he had a keen and special interest in Hadith literature. His interest in Hadith was initially kindled by his teacher Mawlana 'Abd al Ghaffar. He learnt and narrated Hadith from him, whose narration is traceable, through two successive generations, to Shah Muhammad Ishaq Dehlavi. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's inclination towards Hadith literature was further stimulated by the affectionate guidance of Mawlana Anwar Shah Kashmiri. His remarkable proficiency in Arabic language and literature, his phenomenal memory and his single-minded devotion to scholarly pursuits stood him in good stead in mastering Hadith and related disciplines and in making an enduring contribution in this field.
Mawlana Habib al-Rahman had a deep interest in rare manuscripts, especially those relating to collections of Hadith. During his extensive travels around the country, he would make it a point to visit libraries, institutes and museums in search of manuscripts. His scholarly career can be roughly divided into two phases. The first phase began during his twenties and lasted till he was about 60 years of age. During this formative phase, he concentrated on assimilating and mastering the extensive and formidable literature on Hadith and related disciplines. A keen and intense preoccupation with Hadith literature during this period led to the sharpening of his discerning faculties and helped in the development of insight as well as critical acumen. This phase played a catalytic role in ushering in the most productive and creative phase in Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's scholarly career which began after the age of sixty. Perhaps his most important contribution during the formative phase, which could be described as a forerunner of his mature scholarly output during the successive period, is in the form of critical comments and rejoinders on the Musnad of Ahmad ibn Hanbal. The Musnad saw published from Cairo in 1895 with a generous grant from the then Nizam of Hyderabad, Mir Mahbub Ali Khan. However, this edition was replete with printing and other errors. A renowned Egyptian scholar Shaykh Ahmad Muhammad Shakir took up an ambitious project on the publication of a corrected and critical edition of the Musnad. He compared and collated the available manuscripts, identified and corrected the errors, numbered the Ahadith, prepared a glossary of difficult words as well as biographical notices on the narrators, and provided a classified index. The first volume of this edition was published in 1365 A.H. and the remaining 16 volumes were brought out subsequently. This critical edition of the Musnad received universal acclaim and admiration from Muslim scholars from across the world.
Being a sincere and conscientious scholar, Shaykh Shakir invited suggestions and comments from scholars of Hadith from all over the world. However, he did not receive any rejoinders or suggestions from scholars or Orientalists academic circles for almost a decade. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman chanced to see 8 volumes of this monumental work nine years after their publication. He avidly went through the volumes, identified the errors of omission and commission and sent his detailed comments to the editor. Shaykh Ahmad was amazed at the erudition and critical discernment reflected in the rejoinders of Mawlana Habib al-Rahman. He made an open and grateful acknowledgement of his submissions and published them in the 15th volume of the Musnad. He wrote:
All your rejoinders and critical comments are excellent and of high quality. I am sincerely grateful to you for this kindness. I hope you will continue to favour me with your suggestions, motivated as they are by a sense of service to Hadith. The impression that I have gathered from your present writing is that you are one of the greatest scholars of Hadith in this age.
The most productive and fruitful phase of Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's scholarly career commenced after the age of 60 when he was afflicted with failing health and multiple ailments. During this phase, which spanned three decades, he brought out critical editions of over half a dozen rare manuscripts of Hadith. What is remarkable is that this formidable output, comprising 30 volumes and over 10,000 printed pages, was accomplished almost single-handedly and with extremely meagre resources.
It will be no exaggeration to say that Mawlana Habib al-Rahman individually accomplished what an institute or academy could have done with abundant resources. This remarkable feat bears testimony to his scholarship as well as to his devotion to the cherished memory of the Prophet.
The prolific works of Mawlana Habib al-Rahman may be divided under three heads: (a) editing of rare manuscripts of Hadith, (b) original and independent works, (c) Urdu works. His most important contribution lies in the publication of rare and valuable manuscripts of Hadith, which conform with the highest standards of scholarship. The works which fall into this category include Kitab al-Zuhd wa'l-Raqa'iq of 'Abd-Allah ibn Mubarak (d.181 A.H.), the Sunan of Sa'id ibn Mansur (d. 227 A.H.), the Musnad of Imam Humaydi (d. 219 A.H.), the Musannaf of 'Abd al-Razzaq (d. 211 A.H.), the Musannaf of Ibn Abi Shaybah (d. 235 A.H.), al-Matalib al'Aliyah of Ibn Hajar Al-'Asqalani (d.752 A.H.) and Majma 'Bihar-al-Anwar of Tahir Patni (d. 986 A.H.). It is appropriate to dwell a little on the works mentioned above.
Kitab al-Zuhd wa'l-Raqa'iq
'Abd-Allah ibn Mubarak was among the front-ranking traditionists of the second century. The manuscripts of his book Kitab al-Zuhd wa'l-Raqa'iq are found in Cairo and Istanbul. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman published the text of the manuscripts with critical notes and annotations in 1966. The printed text reflects the editor's painstaking efforts. He has prepared an exhaustive list of the narrators, identified the Ahadith from well-known sources, and provided a glossary of difficult words. In addition, he has pointed out the variants in the existing manuscripts.
Sunan of Sa'id ibn Mansur
The term Sunan refers to a collection of Hadith which is related to legal matters and leaves out historical and biographical details. The well-known collections of Sunan include the works of Abu Dawud, Nasa'i, Ibn Majah, Daraqutni and Bayhaqi. One of the earliest works of Sunan was compiled by Abu 'Uthman Sa'id ibn Mansur (d. 227 A.H.). He was a pupil of Imam Malik, Hammad and Abu 'Awanah. His students include such well-known traditionists as Muslim, Abu Dawud and Ahmad ibn Hanbal. An old manuscript of the Sunan of Sa'id ibn Mansur was discovered by Professor Muhamamd Hamidullah in the famous Koprelo library in Turkey. The text of the manuscript, with critical notes and annotations, was published by Mawlana Habib al-Rahman in 1967.
Musnad of Imam Humaydi
The term Musnad refers to a collection of Hadith in which the traditions are narrated by an uninterrupted chain of narrators (isnad), going back to the Companions of the Prophet. The well-known Musnad works include the compilations of Abu Dawud Tayalisi (d. 204 A.H.) and Ahmad ibn Hanbal (d. 233 A.H.). One of the oldest Musnad works is that of Imam Abu Bakr 'Abd-Allah ibn Zubayr al-Humaydi (d. 219 A.H.). He was a pupil of Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah and one of the teachers of Imam Bukhari. Four manuscripts of this work are found in Damascus, Hyderabad and Deoband. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman published the text in 1963. One of the main features of the edited text is the thematic arrangement of Hadith.
Musannaf of 'Abd al-Razzaq
The term Musannaf is applied to a collection of Hadith in which the traditions are arranged according to thematic order in chapters or books. One of the earliest Musannaf works is the work of 'Abd al-Razzaq ibn Hammam al-Himyari (d. 211 A.H.). 'Abd al-Razzaq was a pupil of Ma'mar ibn Rashid (d. 153 A.H.) and Ibn Jurayj (d. 149 A.H.). Some of the celebrated traditionists such as Yahya ibn Ma'in and Ahmad ibn Hanbal sat at his feet and learnt Hadith from him. The Musannaf of 'Abd al-Razzaq contains 21,000 Ahadith. The manuscripts of this monumental work are preserved in Edirne, Istanbul, Madinah, Rabat, San'a, Tonk and Hyderabad. The text of the manuscript was published by Mawlana Habib al-Rahman in 11 volumes from Beirut in 1970. This work can be regarded as the magnum opus of Mawlana Habib al-Rahman and the crowning achievement of his scholarly career. In addition to identifying the Hadith contained in the Musannaf, the editor has added explanatory notes on difficult words. He has also provided an exhaustive index of names and places.
Musannaf of Ibn Abi Shaybah
The Musannaf of Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn 'Abd-Allah ibn Abi Shaybah (d. 235 A.H) is among the earliest collections of Hadith. The manuscripts of the book are found in Egypt and Istanbul. Five volumes of the Musannaf were published by 'Abd al-Khaliq Afghani from Hyderabad. A reproduction of the published volumes together with the remaining six volumes were brought out from Bombay and Karachi. However, these contained scores of errors of omission and commission.
The ruler of Qatar sent a microfilm of the manuscript of the Musannaf of Ibn Abi Shaybah to Mawlana Habib al-Rahman. He spent a few years in editing the text of the manuscript. Five volumes of the edited text have been published from Makkah and the rest, which have been duly edited, have yet to see the light of day. The editor has taken considerable pains to identify 18 books which belong to the genre of Musannaf, provided a comprehensive introduction, and identified the Ahadith in the six canonical sources (al-Sihah al-Sittah). He has also appended an exhaustive index of narrators.
Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah of Ibn Hajar
Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah by the celebrated scholar Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani (d. 752 A.H.) is a collection of zawa'id in the eight Musnad works of Abu Dawud Tayalisi, Humaydi, Ibn 'Umar, Musaddad, Ibn Mani, Ibn Abi Shaybah, Ibn Hamid and Ibn Abi Usamah. The term zawa'id refers to those Ahadith which are not found in the six canonical collections of Hadith (al-Sihah al-Sittah). Ibn Hajar has arranged the zawa'id in a thematic order. The manuscripts of this important work are found in Madinah, Istanbul and Hyderabad. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman edited the manuscript and published it in four volumes from Kuwait.
In addition to the above-mentioned works, Mawlana Habib al-Rahman edited and published a shorter and compact version of al-Targhib wat-Tarhib by Mundhiri (d. 656 A.H.). The original work was voluminous and the compiler had not been very careful about ascertaining the authenticity of Hadith. Ibn Hajar made a summary of this work and rectified its weaknesses. The manuscripts of Ibn Hajar's work are found in Lucknow, Deoband and Bahraich. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman compared and collated the MSS and edited the text with critical notes and comments. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman also edited Haythami's Kashf al-astar 'an Zawa'id Musnad al-Bazzar, which was published in four volumes from Damascus in 1399. Two works of Tahir Patni, Majma' Bihar al-Anwar, which is a monumental glossary of Hadith, and Khawatim Jami'al-Usul, which is a biographical inventory, also deserve mention. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman edited and published them in 1395 A.H. Ibn Shahin's Kitab al-Thiqat, which has also been edited by Mawlana Habib al-Rahman, remains unpublished.
Two of Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's original and early works deserve a mention here. One of them is al-Hawi li Rijal al-Tahawi, which contains biographical notices and researches on the narrators mentioned in Sharh Ma'ani al-Athar and Sharh Mushkil al-Athar of Imam abu Ja'far al-Tahawi (d. 321 A.H.). The other work al-Ithaf al Saniyah bi Dhikr Muhaddithial-Hanafiyah, which deals with the biographies of Hanafi scholars of Hadith.
As regards his Urdu works, which reflect his erudition and vast learning, mention may be made of Raka'at al-Tarawih, al- A'lam al- Marfu'ah and Shari' Haqiqi. His Urdu book A'yan al-Hujjaj, in two volumes, provides crisp and insightful accounts of scholar-pilgrims. His last Urdu book Dastakar Ahl-i Sharaf (published in 1406 A.H.) deals with the biographies of men of eminence and distinction who were weavers by profession.
Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's students, who have spread far and wide, remember him with affection, reverence and gratitude. Though he was a hard task-master, he had a genuine concern for the welfare of his students. He never hesitated in recommending intelligent and industrious students for jobs and promotions. Scores of scholars, many of them eminent in their own fields, take pride in sitting at his feet and learning and relating Hadith from him. Mention may be made of Mawlana Manzur Nu'mani, Mufti Zafir al-Din Miftahi and several others. A large number of scholars from the Arab world as well as from Africa, Afghanistan and Europe considered him as their teacher and related Hadith from him. These include the late Shaykh 'Abd al-Fattah Abu Ghuddah of Syria, Shaykh Isma'il al-Ansari of Riyad, Shaykh Hammad al-Ansari of Madinah, Shaykh Subhi Samarrai of Baghdad, Dr. 'Abd al-Sattar Abu Ghuddah of Kuwait, Dr. Bashshar 'Awd Ma'ruf of Baghdad, Shaykh 'Abd al-Halim Mahmud (former Rector of Azhar University in Cairo), Shaykh Bahjah al-Baytar, Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Baz, Muhammad Amin al-Kutubi, Shaykh Amin al-Husayni of Palestine, Shaykh Sa'di Hashimi of Madinah, 'Abd al-'Aziz Abu 'Uyun of Hims, Shaykh Zahir al-Shadish of Beirut, Shaykh 'Abd al-Rahman of Yaman, Khayr al-Din Zarkali, Sa'id Afghani, Shaykh Muhammad Harkan and Shaykh Hasan Khalid, the Mufti of Lebanon.
Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's works were enthusiastically received and appreciated by scholars of Hadith from all over the Islamic world. He was invited to deliver lectures and participate in conferences in various parts of the world. About twenty years ago while Mawlana Habib al-Rahman was in Makkah to perform Hajj, he was visited by Dr. 'Abd al-Halim Mahmud, the then Rector of al-Azhar. Mawlana Abu'l-Hasan 'Ali Nadavi and Mawlana Manzur Nu'mani as well as several other scholars were present on the occasion. Dr. Mahmud addressed the gathering and remarked that in his considered opinion Mawlana Habib al-Rahman was the greatest living authority on Hadith.
Some years later, Mawlana Habib al-Rahman again happened to be in Makkah. This time he was accompanied by Mawlana As'ad Madani, who wished to meet the famous Saudi scholar Shaykh 'Abd-Allah ibn Baz. Everybody who would call on the Shaykh had to introduce himself since he was blind. When Mawlana Madani and Mawlana Habib al-Rahman called on him and the latter introduced himself according to custom, the Shaykh got up from his chair and apologised, saying that had he known about Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's arrival in Makkah, he would have personally visited him. He then gave his own seat to Mawlana Habib al-Rahman.
Like the savants and scholars of the classical period, Mawlana Habib al-Rahman led a simple and unostentatious life. He was free from conceit, jealousy and petty-mindedness, which are often the bane of scholars. He was unassuming to the core. This was largely due to his selflessness as well as the influence of the Sufi tradition. Quite early in life he was formally initiated into the Chishtiyah order of Sufism by Mawlana Ashraf 'Ali Thanavi, who also authorised him to initiate and enrol others into the fold.
Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's life-long preoccupation with Hadith literature was motivated solely by a sincere devotion to the life and precepts of the Prophet Muhammad. Shah 'Abd al-Aziz Dehlavi has written that a scholar's preoccupation with Hadith produces in him qualities similar to those of the Companions of the Prophet. Mawlana Habib al-Rahman's character and personality bear out the truth of this perceptive observation. He never sought any pecuniary benefits from his works. Several institutes and academies invited him to head centres for the study of Hadith on attractive remuneration, but he refused these offers. Dar al-'Ulum Deoband invited him to serve as Chief Mufti. He declined the offer. About 35 years ago, he was invited to take charge as Rector of the newly-established Madinah University on a salary of 20,000 Saudi Riyals with accommodation and other facilities. He declined the offer without even consulting or informing his family members. As mentioned earlier, Mawlana Habib al-Rahman taught Hadith for one year at Nadwat al-'Ulama in Lucknow in 1952. He had agreed to teach Hadith on condition that he would not accept any remuneration. Shortly after his membership of the assembly came to an end, he was faced with financial difficulties. The managing board of Nadwat al-'Ulama came to know of it and decided to offer one year's salary to him. The draft was sent to Mawlana Habib al-Rahman, but he declined to accept it, saying that he could not go back on his commitment.
Mawlana Habib al-Rahman breathed his last at the age of 91 on March 17, 1992, in his hometown. His funeral, which was taken out in the blazing summer heat of Ramadan, stretched over a mile and was attended by two hundred thousand people. It can be said without any fear of contradiction that the funeral of no other scholar in India has been attended by such a large number of people in the 20th century.
Discerning men for years will with their foreheads honour The spot that bears the imprint of thy foot.
(Published in Islamic Culture, Hyderabad in 1994)

Former Playboy centerfold jumped to her death while holding son
Princess Gabbara
With her 7-year-old son cradled in her arms, a former Playboy centerfold model jumped to her death from the 25th floor of a chic Manhattan hotel, law enforcement officials said.
The bodies of Stephanie Adams and her son, Vincent, were found on a second-story balcony of the Gotham Hotel, near the hotel's rear courtyard, just one day after she checked in to a penthouse suite. Both were pronounced dead at the scene.
New York City Police received a 911 call from the hotel at about 8:15 a.m., police said in a brief news conference. NYPD Lt. John Grimpel said the official cause of death has not yet been determined, but authorities confirmed to The Associated Press that Adams jumped to her death.
Adams was involved in "a very tough custody battle" with her ex-husband, according to her divorce attorney Raoul Felder. The 47-year-old mother had plans to visit Spain with her son on Tuesday, but the judge overseeing the family's case requested Vincent turn over her son's passport, Felder said, noting that it's not unusual for the court to do so during a custody battle.

Felder told People that Adams was a "lovely person and very polite."
"I never saw her unhappy," he added. "Something must've happened in her life, and went haywire."
Adams' ex-husband, Manhattan chiropractor Charles Nicolai, did not immediately respond to attempts seeking comment.
Adams, a New Jersey native, appeared in a Playboy centerfold as "Miss November" in 1992 and again in 2003. Adams wrote more than 25 self-help books, owned an online skincare company, Goddessy Organics, and managed the finances at her husband's chiropractic office, according to a 2013 New York Post profile.
Attorney Sanford Rubenstein, who represented Adams in a 2006 lawsuit against the police department—she won a $1.2 million settlement for being thrown to the ground by police, who were called during a dispute Adams had with a taxi driver—said nothing seemed out of the ordinary when they spoke a few months ago.
"She was a vibrant woman, she had strong opinions, and she loved her kid," he said. "She loved that child. It's unexplainable."
