Gut microbes regroup to aid defence after infection
Resident gut microbes can help to block infection, but the mechanisms involved are not fully understood. It has now been found that changes in the microbial community after infection boost the level of a molecule that combats harmful bacteria.

Complex interactions between a mammalian host and its intestinal microbiota (the community of microorganisms that reside in the small and large intestines) influence host health and disease susceptibility. A major challenge in delving into the mechanistic relationships driving such interactions is the high diversity of species in the microbiota, which gives rise to a microbial profile that is unique to each individual1, much as a fingerprint is. There is a growing appreciation that the gut microbiota is implicated in generating resistance to gut colonization by disease-causing microorganisms (pathogens). However, many studies of this phenomenon have been largely descriptive, and have tended to correlate only particular microbiota compositions with a state of health or disease2. Writing in Cell, Stacy et al.3 present a detailed mechanism that reveals how changes to the microbiota drive resistance to invasion by pathogens.

Looking for a decadent game day recipe? This Slow Cooker Creamy Ranch Bean dip will be loved by all!
What are your game day plans? My husband always requests some sort of bean dip to take to his brothers. This recipe is very creamy, cheesy and very easy to mix up right in the slow cooker.
In addition to the refried beans I added pinto beans, I know not normal. I wanted a bit of texture in this. I also made a homemade Pico de Gallo (salsa fresco) to spoon over this. That made this dip over the top, but really any salsa would be a great addition to this. If you need a recipe for the salsa, this recipe here is similar to what I made.
Here is my YouTube video about how to make this Creamy Ranch Bean Dip. You can follow me on YouTube, here.
Add the refried beans, pinto beans, sour cream, 1 cup of the cheese, and the ranch dressing packet to the slow cooker. Stir and flatten out. Clean up the edges with a paper towel for a cleaner look.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until hot and bubbly. Serve with salsa and chips.
Nutritional values are approximate and do not include the chips.
I used my 6-quart Crock-Pot for this recipe, though a 3-quart or larger should work fine.

Jeremiah Welsh
Wetland Whorled
17.825 X 9.75 X .5
For the past twenty years Connecticut born artist Jeremiah D. Welsh has undertaken the full-time pursuit of mastery in and exploration of low relief sculpture. Fifteen of those years were spent as a contractual relief sculptor for Matthews International Bronze, generating plastiline originals for architectural metal-casting applications. This position afforded Jeremiah with the opportunity to engage dynamically diverse subject matter for governmental, nonprofit and private clientele across the United States and around the world.
While working professionally in bas relief bronze, Mr. Welsh has also had the pleasure of exhibiting his personal work within the United States and Japan – completing his first solo exhibition in Tokyo in January 2014. In 2015, Jeremiah returned to the United States permanently after spending three years living in Tokyo – where he flourished as a privately-funded fine art sculptor.
Mr. Welsh was welcomed by the National Sculpture Society as a newly elected member in 2016. Later in the same year, he was awarded the Pietro and Alfrieda Montana Memorial Prize for "an outstanding work, either carved or cast" in the 83rd Annual Awards Exhibition at the Brookgreen Gardens, South Carolina.
In 2017, Jeremiah completed his second solo exhibition of 31 low relief sculptures, in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Concurrently, his work was also juried into the National Sculpture Society 84th Annual Awards Exhibition – once again appearing at the Brookgreen Gardens.
Jeremiah gained representation at the Wiford Gallery in Santa Fe in 2018. During the same year his work was once again selected by jury to be included in the 85th Annual Awards Exhibition at the Brookgreen Gardens. Further, his accepted sculpture was selected as the featured promotional image for the 85th Annual Exhibition by NSS.
Over the years Jeremiah's sculpture and commentary have been included in various publications. He has acted as a grant-funded community educator, a sculpture judge for the National Scholastic Art Show in Pennsylvania and has lectured in art educational settings both within the U.S. and abroad.
Jeremiah now resides in Colorado Springs, Colorado where he continues to pursue and explore his personal artistic vision through the ongoing development of his private sculptural collections.

Lagos, March 11, 2019 Joseph Edafiadhe, a University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT) athlete to the maiden African University Olympics, said on Monday that his late mother would be happy about his achievements.
Edafiadhe, one of the four UNIPORT athletes to the competition scheduled for Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt, told the News Agency of Nigeria in Lagos that his late mother was his greatest motivation, even in death.
"Whenever I think of my late mum now, I feel happy; and I think of all the good times. She was and still is my greatest motivation.
"I know that she'll be happy and proud of all what I have achieved so far, coupled with the fact that I didn't give up after so many years of being pulled back by injury.
"I know she's definitely smiling and feeling fulfilled," he said.
The West African University Games (WAUG) long jump gold medallist said that he was grateful to God for the comeback, adding that he would not relent.
"My comeback in 2018, after recovering from an ankle injury, I would like to tag it God's grace personified in my life; meaning grace found me.
"Humanly possible, I really don't think I have any right to burst into the scene like I did. Within a period of less than two months, I won a gold medal at WAUG.
"And I won silver at the 2018 National Sports Festival (NSF). Already in 2019, I am going to represent my school at the Games in Egypt.
"I really thank God for the grace, favour and privilege He has bestowed upon my life; and I am so delighted," Edafiadhe said.
The African Youth Athletics Championships (AYAC) long jump gold medallist, however, appreciated the institution's director of sports, for counting him worthy.
"I want to say thank you to our father and admirable Sports Director, Prof. Ken Anugweje, for believing in my potential and making it possible for me to be a part of the team.
"And to my coach in school, George Obiano, for his endless support and words of motivation, I am just so honoured," he said.
According to the Delta-born athlete, the 2019 season is just starting, and that he believes that the process to enable him to excel in the year has started.
He said he was in love with long jump because of its different phases, and that he enjoyed the techniques involved in the track and field event.
"I love long jump, it makes me feel free and express myself.
"I enjoy my flight through the air and land swiftly on the sand, like nothing happened," he said.
NNN reports that the competition holds in Egypt from March 13 to March 20.

The Straddler review
American Gangster : The Crime You Need When the Mob is Not Enough
by Dan Monaco
American Gangster illuminates in its failure. Earnest and workmanlike in its effort to earn a place among the venerated films in its genre, it does not succeed. A better than average film in terms of the average film—a "B" perhaps; three out of four stars—it is neither of the first two Godfather movies, nor is it the most recent Scarface, nor is it Goodfellas, nor is it any number of other "classic" manifestations of the pathology known as the American gangster film.
American Gangster—its poster and its original-soundtrack cover evocative of De Palma and Pacino's Scarface,[1] its melodic trumpet line in the original score's "Frank Lucas" theme overtly referencing Nino Rota's theme for the Godfather—self-consciously sets about positioning itself as another gangster epic in the grand tradition of gangster epics. But the wheels come off well before the deed is done, and we and it are left wondering what has happened.
Like a new sports stadium that has been sedulously built, with an abundance of cash and the distilled thoughts of focus-group participants, to resemble an old sports stadium, there is a disquieting soullessness to American Gangster. As we watch the film connect its dots, we wonder what it is trying to convince us of. It is not incumbent upon a film to convince an audience of anything, but we cannot help but feel that this movie is trying to convince us of something. But what? The answer comes to us eventually: American Gangster is trying to convince us that it is a great American gangster film.
There are a number of plot points in American Gangster worth mentioning. Denzel Washington plays a black gangster (Frank Lucas) who runs Harlem's early 1970s drug trade by cutting out the middle men and getting his supply straight from the source in Southeast Asia; the supply is brought to America in the coffins of American soldiers killed in Vietnam; Frank Lucas' particular brand of heroin, "Blue Magic," is "twice as good for half as much" as his competitors'; Lucas' business, operated by his family, whom he has brought up from North Carolina for just that purpose, is "above the mob," though he eventually has to make peace with the mob by cutting them in on some of his business; Russell Crowe plays an honest cop (Richie Roberts) in a sea of law-enforcement corruption (the most corrupt cop being the slick Trupo, played by Josh Brolin) who eventually brings Frank Lucas down.
There are interesting elements here that, when abstracted, seem to offer some promise: the title itself, which bends over backwards to suggest that there is something above-all "American" in Lucas' story; a "good" (i.e., both highly profitable and of a high quality) product that kills people and further devastates already destitute neighborhoods; a member of a historically disadvantaged ethnic group rising to the top of the crime world by poisoning other members of his ethnic group; dead American soldiers playing an important role in advancing a profitable enterprise; the relationship between crime and law enforcement; the true nature of "business" in America.
But in American Gangster none of these themes is meaningfully investigated. The promise that is offered by their introduction is never fulfilled. In this, at least, it is a worthy heir to its predecessors.
The most frequent explanations for the success of the American gangster film are that it is (a) wish fulfillment for an audience existing under American capitalism; (b) a critique of that same American capitalism.
In fact, it is more the former than the latter, and to the extent that it can be said to be the latter, it is precisely the opposite of what its apologists (chief among them, its directors and its garland-tossing critics) claim it is: far from being a critique of American capitalism, it is a celebration of American capitalism.
The American gangster movie is both wish fulfillment—who, in his day-to-day life, would not like to be unfettered from the ruthless logic of "legal" American capitalism?—and a celebration of the very system it purports to critique. Added to this mix are violence and the eventual downfall of the criminal. The violence is for your entertainment, of course, but so too is the downfall—it is schadenfreude; you may not be bold enough to risk so much, but look what happens to those who do. In one sense, the American gangster film is a form of capitalist pornography. As wish fulfillment within a system combines with a distorted celebration of that same system, the gangster-porn star lives out the audience's fantasies, and the admiring audience's jealousy has its revenge when the gangster is punished.
On the surface, what distinguishes American Gangster from, say, the Godfather films, or Goodfellas, or any number of mob movies, is the independence of the protagonist. He is not part of a syndicate, to which he must answer; he is his own man. "Nobody owns me," he tells us. But really, this isn't an innovation. Nor is the ethnicity of the gangster hero particularly novel. That he is black is worth noting, and director Ridley Scott gives some half-awake nods to how Lucas might represent "progress" (although he does nothing with the obvious ironies inhering in this sort of progress), but the rise of a member of a marginalized ethnic group to a position of gangster independence was already clearly charted in De Palma's Scarface, to take only one of the most obvious examples.
The independent gangster is therefore itself a venerated variation offered gangster-film audiences (and it extends at least as far back as Howard Hughes' and Howard Hawks' original Scarface ). The independent business-gangster goes beyond the rules of the syndicate; the syndicate makes its own rules, and privileges its own members, but the independent gangster makes his own rules, privileging only himself. That this independence is fleeting within the conventions of the rise and fall narrative is beside the point. The appeal to gangster-film audiences is obvious. His is the egomaniacal crime you need when the mob is not enough.
Andre Breton, in a piece formulating surrealism's raison d'etre, once wrote:
...our self-allotted task...consists in elaborating a collective myth appropriate to our period in the same way that, whether we like it or not, the gothic genre must be regarded as symptomatic of the great social upheaval that shook Europe at the end of the eighteenth century. [2]
The American gangster film is itself symptomatic of life under American capitalism. The dynamic insecurity that American capitalism produces has a certain excitement about it; but, over the long haul, this excitement really only remains invigorating for the winners, and it is precisely the winners who are most insulated from any real pain that instability produces. [3] The gangster film—with its celebration of extravagant wealth, life outside the law, violence, amoral entrepreneurism, unfettered capitalism writ large, and stock morality in its ninety-nine-cent-store "tragedies"—is a tonic, but a paradoxical one. It is a way to escape by enmeshing yourself further into the very logic that ails you.
We began this review by noting that American Gangster failed to make itself into a "classic" of the genre. Pauline Kael once said, "movies are a popular art form, and they can mean a great deal to us at the time—mean something new—but they get stale very quickly, as what they do is imitated." [4] The problem with American Gangster is not that it is an imitation (a work in any genre—in any art form—is generally at least a sort of imitation), but that it is a stale imitation; that is its failure—but with further investigation, we find that the genre itself is a sort of failure.
Consider these words of Martin Esslin, writing about drama in the settings of film, television, and theater: "Drama provides some of the principal role models by which individuals form their identity and ideals, sets patterns of communal behavior, forms values and aspirations and has become part of the collective fantasy life of the masses." [5]
If reports of real-life gangsters' love and emulation of gangster movies are to be believed, Esslin's words not only ring true, but take on a certain comic element. The same is true when one considers two anecdotal reports from an editor at The Straddler: the editor was once at the home of a highly successful Italian-American owner of a real-estate company. When it was time to sit down for dinner, the first tune played for the guests on the stereo system was Rota's "The Godfather Waltz." On another occasion, this same editor was in the basement recreation room of a successful Jewish accountant. On the walls of the recreation room, close, but not too close, to the television, was a chiaroscuro painting which depicted, on the left side, all of the major characters from The Godfather trilogy, and on the right side, all of the major characters from The Sopranos.
To be playfully dubbed a "gangster" in American society is a term of admiration and respect. If your father knocks ten bucks off of the price of a fifty-dollar Christmas tree, you might compliment him for having "gotten gangster" during the haggling process. The "gangster," like the real gangster, gets respect. But the outsized respect the "gangster" commands is only momentary because he is, in the end, just one of us. He is not actually a gangster. It's kind of a joke. For hip-hop culture, it is a little bit more complicated than that. It is a pose that sometimes has its roots in actual criminal activity. The rapper Jay-Z was so moved by American Gangster that he made a successful album (entitled, of course, American Gangster ) inspired by the film. Before Jay-Z got into the "rap game," he was a player in the "dope game." Crack dealing far behind him now, his unparalleled success in hip-hop has allowed him to enter into so many business enterprises that he is presently, according to his own accounts, "moguling." (Say what you will about Jay-Z's occasionally jejune lyrics; his is one dope flow.) There are also hip-hop figures with names like Scarface and Irv Gotti and Yo Gotti (these latter two names perhaps the more problematic, as they are borrowed from the name of a real-life gangster).
And yet, are all of these identifications—from well-off white businessmen to African-American hip-hop figures to your law-abiding father who dutifully goes to work at a "legit" business everyday—manifestations of anything more than a broad recognition that, under American capitalism, "the lethal pursuit of the American dream," as Manohla Dargis wrote in her sober New York Times review of American Gangster, "is not restricted to one or two families—the Corleones, say, or the Sopranos—but located in a network of warring tribes that help to obscure the larger war of all against all"? [6]
What is the context in which the gangster film places life under American capitalism? Rather than being profound, liberating, and enriching, the gangster film diminishes and cheapens the lives of its audience.
The system is unfair and often unjust, and the desire to con it extends broadly across American society—not least because the system, as it is set up, and as it functions, is itself a con. The deck is stacked against you and you resent it. It is only natural to want to con the con. But the principles underlying the scam the gangster uses against the larger scam end up being an ethos that is just as traditional and becomes just as hallowed as the one against which he was working in the first place. Consider Frank Lucas' words in American Gangster: "The most important thing in business is honesty, integrity, hard work, family... ." The gangster is not a rebel. He is the outsider as conformist. His acquisitive values are no different than those of the society in which he operates, even though he uses more (obviously) dubious means to pursue his ends. He wants his piece of the pie. As Gore Vidal once said, "in a sanctimonious society of hustlers, which is what the United States has been from the very beginning...the first law is, 'I won't blow your scam and you don't blow mine." [7]
There is certainly nothing wrong with watching gangster films. While it is often tedious to endure directors indulging their (and their audience's) penchant for violence, or, what may be worse, taking breaks from their films in order to heavy-handedly essay connections between crime, criminal figures, and "this America," [8] it's sometimes fun to be on the edge of our seats wondering if Michael Corleone can find the gun behind the toilet (and that mobster and that corrupt cop had it coming anyway, didn't they? Even if what they were trying to do was "just business."); or watching Ray Liotta's character in Goodfellas get a prime table in a crowded club and having his new girlfriend breathlessly ask him, "what do you do ?"; or watching Joe Pesci do his clown routine in the same movie. It's the lessons we deliberately or inadvertently take away from these films that are problematic. It is the way these very popular films "provide[] some of the principal role models by which individuals form their identity and ideals, set[] patterns of communal behavior, form[] values and aspirations and...become part of the collective fantasy life of the masses."
The gangster film functions as its own form of Blue Magic, and because of the conditions under which we live, we can't necessarily fault ourselves for wanting a dose. But it's the easy way out...because by injecting ourselves in order to get out for a little while, all we really do is ensure that we remain even further in.
American Gangster's failure as a gangster film, then, is perhaps its greatest success.

[8] Hawks' mayhem-riddled Scarface provides a particularly hysterical example of this. Responding to pressure from censorship boards seeing in Scarface a "glorification" of the gangster, the 1932 movie begins with three defensive title cards that together read:
"This picture is an indictment of gang rule in America and of the callous indifference of the government to this constantly increasing menace to our safety and our liberty. Every incident in this picture is the reproduction of an actual occurrence, and the purpose of this picture is to demand of the government: 'What are you going to do about it?' The government is your government. What are YOU going to do about it?"
In the "dry," economically-depressed America of 1932, one imagines a reasonable answer might have been, "I'm going to sneak another drink and watch another gangster movie."
There is also a bizarre moment about two-thirds of the way into film in which the newspaper publisher, Mr. Garston, meets with concerned citizens (obvious stand-ins for the censorship boards) who are opposed to the attention his paper gives to gangsters. In an unintentionally comic scene which reads like an unwitting bastardization of a Brechtian Lehrstück, Garston, qua the film's defense attorney, delivers a lecture (during which he more than once looks straight into the camera) moralistically admonishing the citizens to get off of the paper's back and "instead of trying to hide the facts, get busy trying to see that laws are passed that will do some good. Pass a federal law that puts the gun in the same class as drugs and white slavery. Put teeth in the Deportation Act. These gangsters don't belong in this country. Half of them aren't even citizens." The scene is lazily shot, pasted in, and is preceded and succeeded by, respectively, a gangland massacre and an assassination of a rival gang leader, both carefully and effectively photographed. The point is not that Hughes and Hawks compromised the artistic integrity of their movie in order to appease the censors, but the line of defense they chose.
All of this makes the following bit of dialogue from The Godfather seem subtle by comparison:
I'm working for my father now, Kay. He's been sick—very sick.
But you're not like him, Michael. I thought you weren't going to become a man like your father. That's what you told me...
My father's no different than any other powerful man. Any man who's responsible for other people. Like a senator or a president.
You know how naive you sound?
Senators and presidents don't have men killed...
Oh—who's being naive, Kay?
But, of course, it is anything but subtle. It's as tedious as it is prosciutto-handed. (If Francis Ford Coppola ever had any real intention of offering a critique of America's economic and political workings, he must have relished the irony of the real-life super-gangster Henry Kissinger's presence at the The Godfather 's premiere. But the joke, in the end, was actually on Coppola.)

As one of the largest birds in North America, the pelican is easy to spot and to identify. Its distinct, long orange bill, long neck and bright white feathers are hard to miss. These pelicans feed and spend time in shallow lakes, ponds, rivers, bays and estuaries.
North America to Central America.
The main diet of the pelican consists of a variety of fish. They consume about 4 lbs of fish per day. Hunting as they swim, they dunk their heads under the water to catch their prey. The American white pelican does not dive for their catch like the brown pelican. White pelicans will eat amphibians and crayfish as well, if they are available. Sometimes pelicans will hunt in groups, chasing fish towards the shore or each other. In deeper waters they are more likely to hunt alone, as the fish can escape much more easily. On occasion they will steal a meal from another pelican or other birds.
The pelican can hold up to 3 gallons of water in its expandable throat sac. If a fish is caught in the pouch with the water, the pelican will tilt the bill downward to drain the water out so they can swallow just the fish.
The pelican makes a croak, croak, croak call. Sometimes it sounds like a cross between a frog and a duck.
Loss of habitat or human incursion into nest sites is a major cause of death for young pelicans. Whole colonies of white pelicans have been known to abandon nests if they are disturbed. Floods, drought and contamination also may reduce pelican populations. Coyotes, ravens and gulls consume young hatchlings or eggs, decreasing the number of pelicans that survive into adulthood.
White pelicans live in colonies that consist of hundreds of pairs. They migrate to nesting areas in the spring months and nest from April through early June and often use the same location to nest for years. Preferred nesting sites are islands that prevent access from many mammals. Mating and courtship occur while the nest is being built, a process taking about 7 to 10 days. The female will lay a clutch of eggs ranging in size from 2 to 6 eggs. An average clutch contains 2 eggs. The nest is built on the ground with sticks and debris found in the local area.
Incubation takes about one month. Both the female and the male incubate the eggs and care for the young, one leaving to feed, while the other protects the nest. Not all of the hatchlings will survive. The young stay in the nest for another month, continuing to change and grow as they develop their full plumage. The juvenile pelicans will begin to move away from the nest, gathering together in groups called pods. These pods offer the young birds some protection from predators by virtue of their numbers, and free their parents to forage for food. Once the young pelicans begin to fly, about two months after they hatch, the parents continue to feed and help care for them until they prepare to migrate south for the winter. The family unit separates when they join a larger colony to prepare for the migration. Pelicans come of breeding age at about 3 years.
The white pelican does not dive for its prey, it dunks its head underwater to hunt.
White and brown pelicans can both hold up to 3 gallons of water in their throat sac.
Pelicans fly with their necks tucked back, unlike geese and swans.
The young gather in groups called pods, consisting of variously aged juveniles, not yet able to fly.
The white pelican soars, taking advantage of thermals.

Q: null terminated character is not recognized I use the OPENFILENAME ofn way to open a browse file dialog in win32 application.
I want to be able to use dynamic the file filtering according to what user needs and not as predefined to all files
ofn.lpstrFilter = L"All Files\0*.*\0\0";

I tried to change the predefined code with a dynamic one but it seems that even the null-terminated character is treated as string in the below code
string UserChoice = "Exe Files\0*.exe\0\0";
wstring ChoiceTemp = s2ws(UserChoice); // convert string to lpcwstr
LPCWSTR FilterByUser = ChoiceTemp.c_str();
ofn.lpstrFilter = FilterByUser;

It seems that the \0 is not recognized as null character in the browse file dialog and it doesn't show any files at all, my knowledge on c++ is on my first steps and i can`t make it work without any help on this issue and i searched around the net but nothing came in handy.
Any suggestion on how to make it work ?

A: You can use std::string for strings with embedded terminators, but you have to use the correct std::string constructor to create the string.
More specifically either the one where you explicitly specify a length (number 4 in the linked constructor reference) or a start and end iterator (number 6).  In this case, the first one is best:
string UserChoice("Exe Files\0*.exe\0", 16);

A: lpstrFilter is usually a constant string so there is no need for std::wstring. Just define a constant string:
const wchar_t* filter =
    L"All files\0*.*\0"
    L"Exe files\0*.exe\0";

But it can be done as follows if necessary (I am repeating @Joachim Pileborg)
std::wstring filter =
    L"All files|*.*|"
    L"Exe files|*.exe|";
std::replace(filter.begin(), filter.end(), '|', '\0');
ofn.lpstrFilter = filter.data();

Use filter.data() instead of c_str(). To select a particular filter use nFilterIndex
wchar_t filename[MAX_PATH];
wcscpy_s(filename, L"c:\\test\\default file.txt");

OPENFILENAME ofn = { sizeof(OPENFILENAME) };
ofn.lpstrFile = filename;
ofn.nMaxFile = MAX_PATH;
ofn.lpstrFilter = filter;
ofn.nFilterIndex = 2; //select "Exe files"
ofn.Flags = OFN_PATHMUSTEXIST | OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST;

Lemur conservation crisis
February 20, 2014 Thomas Parisi Faculty & Staff, Global, Humanities, Latest News, Liberal Arts and Sciences, Research, Science and Technology
NIU husband-and-wife team Mitch Irwin and Karen Samond observe a lemur in Madagascar.
A group of the world's top lemur conservationists and researchers, including NIU anthropology professor Mitch Irwin, has published a "Policy Forum" article in the Feb. 21 issue of Science, urging emergency action to prevent extinctions of these unique primate species, found naturally only in Madagascar.
The 19 article authors note that the country's five endemic lemur families make up "the most threatened mammal group on Earth." The situation has worsened following a 2009 political crisis that saw the ouster of the Malagasy president.
Led by Christoph Schwitzer, head of research at Bristol Zoo Gardens in the U.K., the researchers advocate for adoption of an emergency conservation action plan, detailed in a document published Aug. 1, 2013, on the website of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Schwitzer serves as vice-chair for Madagascar of the IUCN SSC Primate Specialist Group.
Irwin had a hand in writing both the Policy Forum article and the IUCN document.
"With the Science publication, we want to draw people's attention to the urgency of the plan and its funding goals," Irwin says. "Since the 2009 political crisis, the situation on the ground has been grim for the Malagasy people, but also for the lemurs, especially in terms of habitat loss. If things don't turn around, lemur extinctions will start happening."
A mouse lemur trapped to collect data on population density and health.
The lemurs' habitat has been disappearing for the past 2,000 years, due to human activity, but the recent political turmoil has caused a flashpoint.
In its wake, international donors suspended funding for environmental programs. Conservation laws went unenforced. An illegal trade in precious hardwoods sprouted up, destroying lemur habitat. And as poverty increased, desperate Malagasy people burned more forests to grow crops; others turned to the poaching of lemurs for bushmeat. (Madagascar is one of the poorest countries in the world, with more than 92 percent of its people living on less than $2 a day.)
According to the Policy Forum article in Science, remaining intact forest habitat was estimated to cover 92,200 kilometers in 2010, only 10 percent to 20 percent of Madagascar's original forest cover and down from 106,600 kilometers in 1990. Much of this habitat is inadequately or not at all protected.
Of 101 lemur species, 94 percent are threatened. Irwin says that some have populations of fewer than 500. The ranks of one species, known as the Northern Sportive Lemur, has dwindled to fewer than 20 individuals.
"Extinctions could happen more quickly than you would think," Irwin says.
The Policy Forum article notes lemurs play important ecological roles and are essential to maintaining the island's unique forests, so their loss would likely trigger "extinction cascades."
"That's why we should be upset about the potential for any species to go extinct," Irwin says. "Once they're gone, they're gone forever. And they are linked ecologically to other species. For example, lemurs eat the fruits of hardwood trees and disperse their seeds. An extinction could reduce tree reproduction and impact other species that depend on those trees. One link in the chain leads to another."
Russell Mittermeier, president of Conservation International and chair of the IUCN SSC Primate Specialist Group, co-authored the article in Science. He says there have been encouraging signs in Madagascar since the recent election of a new president, former finance minister Hery Rajaonarimampianina.
"Lemurs, tortoises, rosewood and other natural resources in Madagascar have been collateral damage and victims of the political instability that has persisted for nearly five years," Mittermeier said in a Bristol Zoo Gardens press release. "However, with the new democratically elected government of President Rajaonarimampianina, we have high hopes that this exploitation of natural resources will be curtailed in the near future."
The emergency conservation plan proposes actions for 30 priority sites harboring endangered lemurs, including Irwin's research site at Tsinjoarivo, and seeks foreign financial aid to achieve these goals.
The plan highlights three major strategies to prevent lemur extinctions:
community-based, protected-habitat management;
the promotion of ecotourism; and
a steady presence of researchers in the country, who in turn train the Malagasy in conservation and deter illegal activities.
Irwin sums it up succinctly. "Nothing will be secure," he says, "unless you make life better for the people who rely on the forest."

To be fair, it is hard not to see the American Election campaign as a pantomime. I'm sure we could find sections of British politics across the spectrum that seem questionable. But I don't ever remember an election campaign - which has such potential global impact - looking so disingenuous. Politics is hard to trust at the best of times.
"Shelton is a senior fellow and co-director of the Atlas Sound Money Project, whose mission is to promote the principles of sound money and raise awareness of what they see as the inherent problems of our current monetary system. Dr. Shelton first rose to prominence when she predicted the economic collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989, two years before it transpired."
She's less of a Trump supporter and more of a Republican-values supportive, having previously advised Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Ben Carson.
Here's what she said this last week in an interview with Fortune: "In terms of gold being involved, [in a future U.S. monetary policy] some people may think of that as a throwback, but I see it as a sophisticated, forward-looking approach because gold is neutral and it's universal. It's a well-accepted monetary surrogate that transcends borders and time. If you look at the foreign reserves of the most important countries, they keep them mostly in gold. I don't want to read too much into it, but it proves that gold is not some barbarous relic."
That sounds measured, empirically-based and sensible.
In the above article from 2015 I wrote that; "When asked does Greenspan see a rally in the Gold price therefore in 2015, he strongly summed up his position by stating very sensibly that there is "no need to time it that closely. There are bargains out there that should be bought right now and held onto with a two to three year time horizon, with great confidence that the downsize risk is minimal and your upside return is really quite extra-ordinary."
Shelton reiterates this view: "A gold-backed bond was first proposed in 1981 by Alan Greenspan. I think the U.S. should issue them as an experimental pilot program, similar to the TIPS bond, that compensates people who are concerned about the future value of the dollar. For those who are concerned about a big financial meltdown, these bonds would give them some insurance, as gold tends to rise in price during periods of financial stress.
The Chinese would welcome this development, because it would likely be a stabilizing force for the value of the dollar and protect their dollar holdings. I also think they are the most likely country to provide a parallel instrument. If China were to offer a similar instrument where five years from now you can get back x amount in yuan or an ounce of gold, five years from now both the U.S.-issued instrument and the China-issued instrument are worth the same thing, an ounce of gold. So now you start getting projections of a stable exchange rate determined by market forces. If this practice starts to spread to even more countries, you would start to see the semblance of a future stable exchange rate system with those exchange rates being determined by what market forces believe about the future value of those currencies."
So, to recap on Physical Gold's price rises this year, the price per ounce of Gold has risen £162.02 or 19.01% in the last six months, while Physical Silver has risen a massive 34.57%; hardly noticed by the mainstream media.
Now, understandably, those price rises are just cooling a little, while the herd of the market which panicked over Brexit realises the world didn't fall in. And wealthy Harrods clients are taking advantage of this slight pause in the upwards bull market. Once again, the word "China" happened to get into the picture in this brief write-up in The Telegraph last month: Harrods "is currently displaying a 12.5kg gold bar, worth around £400,000, in the window of its Knightsbridge store. The price of the precious metal has risen approximately 30pc this year, with demand from some of the biggest markets, such as China, growing fast."
It is logical to assume that once the effects become apparent of both more Quantitative Easing in the U.K. and the U.S. plus a few international political events and uncertainties play out, the price of Physical Gold and Silver as a safe haven will probably continue its march upward again. That is, however, a personal hunch, not investment advice. I encourage Bleyer's readers to enjoy copious amounts of their own research and, where appropriate, seek the advice of an I.F.A. Many of Bleyer's clients are highly researched individuals from all walks of life and it's a joy to talk with you and receive emails from you.
And what does this have to do with Gold? "Perhaps the most notable development was reported today by Turkey's Gunes newspaper, which said that as part of the discussion between Putin and Erdogan on Tuesday, the Turkish president suggested to abandon the US dollar in bilateral trade between Turkey and Russia, and instead to transact directly in lira and rubles. This would "benefit both Russia and Turkey", Erdogan allegedly said in his August 9 meeting in St Petersburg, adding that this would relieve the lira from the USD's upward pressure.
I've highlighted that last line because it's so key. The root behind so many of the political headlines is actually not politics, but Gold. And the root behind Turkey is Russia and the root behind Russia is China. Or is it the other way around? The true puppet-master of the Chinese-Russia relationship may only be truly apparent in time.
Moving on from the political uncertainties to natural ones, this last fortnight there have been some truly heartbreaking natural disasters also. The floods in Louisiana barely touched our mainstream media for the first week of it occurring but the floods were historic. Today we wake to news of a massive earthquake in central Italy. Our thoughts are with anyone with family and friends affected.
"Gold Demand: Record H1 investment demand of 1,063.9t was 16% higher than the previous H1 high from 2009. Investment was the largest component of gold demand for two consecutive quarters (Q1 and Q2) – the first time this has ever happened."
And we all know where the world stood economically back in 2009.
So what can you do about it? Bleyer believe strongly in taking personal responsibility for one's wealth increase and protection. We ourselves hold and follow traditional business ethics, taking time to build trust with you, our clients, giving bespoke customer care and researching the factors that affect or manipulate the free market in precious metals.
We would love to see many more members of the British public just like you owning and holding your own Physical Gold and Silver, in preparation for a time when international fiat currencies - in their highly interlinked fashion - will be going through a very bumpy ride. As previously discussed in our Blogs and News, Gold and Silver do well in inflation, deflation and hyper-inflation. We believe we're currently in the deflationary stage of the current cycle, which is what we call a 'buying opportunity' in Physical Metals.
If you would like to know more about the many different Gold and Silver products we offer, plus information on home or away from home storage, holding Gold in a pension or even buying home Gun Cabinets, please feel free to email [email protected] or browse our website, submit an enquiry and sign up for our weekly newsletter. One of the team will contact you to chat through your options. We can help you make your own individual choice about your wealth protection, look together at how you can save both VAT and Capital Gains Tax in owning Physical Gold and Silver and which products will work best for you. Accumulating Physical Gold and Silver is quick, straight-forward and rewarding.

Digital Twin of Transport Infrastructure – combining the power of data & model
Featured Image (Width 750px, Height 340px)

Transport infrastructures are the backbone of our society due to that we heavily rely on the uninterrupted availability of the road network, and bridges are the bottleneck of this network. Reliable condition assessment of our aging transport infrastructures are essential to maintain their integrity. Moreover, climate change and extreme climatic events are important threats to the reliability and safety of the network. This has led to a growing demand for more accurate and reliable condition assessment processes – data collection, data analysis and performance prediction. Significant advances in robotics have radically transformed the current practices by leveraging aerial vehicles combined with optical data collection techniques. Given the recent advancements, massive point cloud data from existing structures are to be collected more accurately and more frequently than ever before. Such repository of data may leverage updating leaps in condition assessment processes only if they are analyzed with advanced methods and coupled with performance prediction models.
The overarching goal of the proposed project is to establish an innovative solution in which next-generation data collection, data analysis and performance prediction methods are customized and integrated to the Digital Twin framework for infrastructures. More specifically, the goal is to leverage 3D point could data of concrete structures to quantify cracking and to create and update FE models accordingly, and thus generating a digital twin of the structure. The goal will be realized through the following specific objectives:
Objective 1: To characterize crack pattern (geometry, length and width) from 3D point cloud data
Objective 2: To automate the generation of an FE mesh from 3D point cloud data
Objective 3: To demonstrate, in real-time, data collection and data analysis leading to FE model of a test object
The complementary expertise of the applicant's research group Concrete Structures in "developing models for the assessment of structures" and the expertise of Chalmers Data Science Research Center in "advanced methods of analyzing Big Data" will join forces to solve the challenge addressed in this proposal which primarily relates to Area of Advance ICT and secondary to Building Future. By combining the power of data & model through data drive research, we aims to ensure ever more resilient road transportation, and to establish Chalmers as a leading technical university in innovative application of Big Data related to built environment.
End date The project is closed: 30/06/2020

Filming Axed Arts Centre
Irony Of Film About Axed Arts Centre (from The Argus): "A documentary on the last months of an arts centre is being funded by the organisations whose cuts contributed to its closure. Award-winning film-maker Michele D'Acosta will shoot a fly-on-the-wall documentary about the final season at Gardner Arts Centre in Brighton. The film is being funded by Brighton and Hove City Council and the Arts Council South East." As Nick pointed out, Londoners wouldn't think twice about travelling 10 minutes to see a gig or concert! Shame on Brighton!
Dan Thompson said...
I think the comment about travelling is spot on - Brighton audiences are *so* lazy! Here in Worthing, 20 minutes train ride away, we've put on Brighton artists (who all say 'well my friends won't come and see it, it's so far to travel') and big artists like Bill Drummond, Dave Gorman, and Big Chill. Anyone from Brighton in the audience? The man Fred is one of our few Brighton regulars, but other then him ... nah!

Proprietor brothers Adam and Andrew Mariani acquired 256 acres which included a waning turkey farm in 2007 three miles east of the Sonoma Town Square in Carneros that has a long and colorful history. Scribe's neighbor is Gundlach Bundschu. The site dates to 1858 when Emil Dresel and his brother Julius established the wine property. They may have planted the first Riesling and Silvaner vines in the United States.
The Mariani brothers grew up in Winters farming walnuts and almonds, and enjoyed it enough that they longed for a life in agriculture. After working at wineries in Europe, they found an estate of their own in Carneros.
Along with partners Kristof Anderson and Andrew Avellar, the trio is revitalizing the property and growing 35 acres of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and Sylvaner with the first plantings going in the ground in 2008. Initially, as the young vines matured, the wines were crafted from purchased grapes from Carneros and leased vineyard property in Napa. The first estate vine came in 2011. A winery is planned that will be built to preserve the turkey shed imprint and honor the history of the property. A 100+-year-old hacienda on the property awaits renovation.
The 2007-2010 Scribe Carneros Pinot Noir consists of 125 cases priced at $42. A recent write up in Food & Wine Magazine indicates that membership in the Scribe Viticultural Society is worth considering not only for the wine but to gain access to events at the Scribe Estate. Mariani has a group of Bay Area chefs as pals including Alice Waters (Mariana dated her daughter) and any number of them may show up at the wine estate holding forth at an outdoor kitchen and wood-fired oven.
Tastings by appointment only, 2300 Napa Rd. in Sonoma (707-939-1858).


Recruitment is a profoundly human art, which requires intuition, empathy and salesmanship. Our chatbots do not pretend to outperform human recruiters on any of these, but they assist for the part of the conversation which is standardized and repeatable. Using certain NLP triggers, our AI-powered chatbots recognize conversations which should deserve the attention of the recruiters.
We make candidates' lives easier by meeting them where they are. Our chatbots can engage and keep conversation going on the communication channels your candidates are already using, including career sites, job landing pages, SMS, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, WeChat, Line Messenger, and Slack.
Context is the secret behind any great conversation. When it comes to the many conversation paths in a candidate's journey, there are a lot of intermediary steps than apply and hire. Talkpush has mastered the art of maintaining the context in conversations as a way to optimize every step of the candidate journey, from click to hire, all the way until their first day on the job.
Don't limit yourself to text conversations. Our chatbots usual rich communications to engage with audiences and can collect audio responses, pictures, videos, documents, and any other type of content that helps candidates get to the next stage in the recruitment process. Using voice transcription technology, our chatbots can continue a conversation with the audio input, while capturing rich data about the candidate's communication skills.


Yesterday, I ran TrimGalore/FastQC/MultiQC on the Crassostrea virginica MBD BS-seq data from ZymoResearch with the default settings (i.e. "auto-trim"). There was still some variability in the first ~15bp of the reads and Steven wanted to see how a hard trim would change things.
I ran TrimGalore (using the built-in FastQC option), with a hard trim of the first 14bp of each read and followed up with MultiQC for a summary of the FastQC reports.
OK, this trimming definitely took care of the variability seen in the first ~15bp of all the reads.
Yesterday, I ran FastQC/MultiQC on the Crassostrea virginica MBD BS-seq data from ZymoResearch. Steven wanted to trim it and see how things turned out.
I ran TrimGalore (using the built-in FastQC option) and followed up with MultiQC for a summary of the FastQC reports.
Checksums for FASTQ files were verified post-data transfer.
Overall, the auto-trim didn't alter things too much. Specifically, Steven is concerned about the variability in the first 15bp (seen in the Per Base Sequence Content section of the MultiQC output). It was reduced, but not greatly. Will perform an independent run of TrimGalore and employ a hard trim of the first 14bp of each read and see how that looks.
Per Steven's GitHub Issues request, I ran FastQC on the Eastern oyster MBD bisulfite sequencing data we recently got back from ZymoResearch.
MultiQC was then run on the FastQC output files.
All files were moved to Owl after the jobs completed.
Steven's interested in seeing what the trimmed output would look like (and, how it would impact mapping efficiencies). Will initiate trimming.
See the GitHub issue linked above for the full discussion.


The Easter Season runs from Easter Sunday through June 9 (Pentecost). It is the longest season of the church year because Easter is the most important feast day of the church year.
What we are celebrating is that Jesus is risen and his Spirit has been poured out into the world – into each of us. And so, the story continues through us. Indeed, the kingdom of God continues to advance through us.
Isn't Jesus wonderful? Not only does he forgive your sins and save you from eternal death, but he also invites you to be part of his story. He makes you a part of salvation history. He is asking you to help write another page in that story of salvation.
You help write this story by letting others see the joy in your heart, by treating others the way you would want to be treated, and by spending time with the Lord every day.
Please check this website or our Facebook page regularly to keep up with what is happening. Life is good at St. Paschal Church!


A bowl may curve outside the rink boundary on its path, but must come to rest within the rink boundary to remain in play. Bowls falling into the ditch are dead and removed from play, except in the event when one has "touched" the jack on its way. "Touchers" are marked with chalk and remain alive in play even though they are in the ditch. Similarly if the jack is knocked into the ditch it is still alive unless it is out of bounds to the side resulting in a "dead" end which is replayed, though according to international rules the jack is "respotted" to the centre of the rink and the end is continued.
After each competitor has delivered all of their bowls (four each in singles and pairs, three each in triples, and two bowls each in fours), the distance of the closest bowls to the jack is determined (the jack may have been displaced) and points, called "shots", are awarded for each bowl which a competitor has closer than the opponent's nearest to the jack. For instance, if a competitor has bowled two bowls closer to the jack than their opponent's nearest, they are awarded two shots. The exercise is then repeated for the next end, a game of bowls typically being of twenty-one ends.
Lawn bowls is played on grass. Bowls is generally played in a very good spirit, even at the highest professional level, acknowledgment of opponents' successes and near misses being quite normal.


Last year I was invited in to clear out a family's porch that had become the dumping grounds for anything that they didn't want coming in the door (boots, skis, baseball gloves, rocks, empty boxes… you know the stuff). The desire was to make the space ready to serve multiple functions- mudroom, occasional play area, space for quiet moments, and room to entertain.
We dug right in and worked up a sweat! I wrote about the three-hour session and shared some great before and afters in this post Before and After, but what actually happens In Between.
After I left, the magic continued! Here's what happened once the space was clear & the client's creativity was given room to soar!
I love sharing inspiring pics!
I think they offer a chance to dream about your own space & the possibilities that are waiting underneath your clutter.

Hey, new to SPM but got 5.0 installed and running really well. Pretty amazing stuff, thank you!
I'm wondering if I can somehow back up my savegame files from my current computer and copy them to a different computer as long as I set up SPM 5.0 exactly the same on the other computer? If so, does anyone know where the save files are stored? They aren't showing up in the normal Documents>My Games>skyrim folder.


There has been some big news around the USF Bulls. Rumors are going around about quarterback Blake Barnett, formerly of Alabama and Arizona State, transferring to USF. With all this smoke, Rock Riley checks with Joey Knight of the Tampa Bay Times to see if there's any fire.
Knight warns that the deal is not done yet, not enough to report it or for USF fans to start celebrating anyway. A lot goes into these transfers, and there is still much to be determined before Barnett heads to Charlie Strong's program in Tampa.
Listen to the Rock Riley Show, weekday afternoons from 3-6 on Sports Talk 1040 AM Tampa Bay.
