Nature tiptoes along a sturdy yet fragile tightrope. DNA is its backbone and provides a basis from which every single living species on this planet emerges and prospers. Time, however, tampers with everything. Silver turns black. Fruit rots. And DNA undergoes mutations. But mutations have their good side too; without them, there would not be such a diversity of species that has ended up colonising most of the planet. We know that evolution relies on chemical changes that slip into DNA - and so into proteins - because they can help a species adapt better to its surroundings. Some mutations turn out to be less beneficial for some, however, and can give rise to havoc. This is perhaps what has happened between the Zika virus (ZIKV) and humans. Everyone has heard of the ZIKV outbreak in South America that began in 2015, during which many babies were born with undersized heads and brains, and diminished cognitive skills. Some scientists suggest that a mutation in a protein located on the virus's shell, and known as prM, is responsible for this form of microcephaly in human foetuses.
«Until 2016, Zika virus had had no planetary attention because the symptoms caused by it were rarely severe. Congenital microcephaly, however, was another cup of tea.»
Zika virus (ZIKV) was first discovered in 1947 in Uganda, in the Zika Forest. At the time, researchers were carrying out studies on yellow fever virus, which is spread by mosquitoes. It was only in 1954, however, and in Nigeria that symptoms pertaining to human infection by ZIKV were described. The virus then travelled to Asia in the 1960s but remained under the radar until a few significant outbreaks of ZIKV were reported in Africa in 2007. It reached French Polynesia in 2013 where it was associated for the first time with another disease: Guillain-Barré syndrome, characterized by muscle weakness. It was also during this period that doctors discovered that ZIKV could be transmitted via blood, semen, saliva and urine. In 2014, the virus reached South America and it spread rapidly throughout most regions during the course of 2015. The first cases of foetal microcephaly associated with mothers who had been infected by ZIKV during the first term of their pregnancy were reported in 2016 in north-eastern Brazil, and it became cause for international concern.
Until 2016, ZIKV hadn't had any planetary attention because the symptoms caused by it were rarely severe. But congenital microcephaly was another cup of tea. Questions arose. Why is ZIKV suddenly involved in neuronal malformations? Why in South America, when there had been many outbreaks elsewhere? How are the foetuses infected? This said, in over 5'000 cases of microcephaly reported in Brazil, not all (37%) could be linked to ZIKV infection. But the problem also became a social one. Mothers had to stop working to care for babies whose cognitive and motor skills were hugely compromised. In some ways, this is reminiscent of the drug thalidomide that was given to many pregnant women in the early 1960s, and which impeded their babies' embryological development.

Researchers began by comparing the "ancestral" ZIKV genome with its contemporary counterpart. All genomes undergo mutations as they are passed from generation to generation, but it was a question of finding the mutation which made ZIKV turn to foetal cells involved in brain development. ZIKV belongs to the flaviviruses that are icosahedral in shape. Their shell - or envelope - is composed of envelope (E) and membrane (M) proteins embedded in a lipid membrane. Inside the envelope is an RNA genome, surrounded by capsid proteins. Researchers found that a serine to asparagine amino-acid mutation had occurred in the sequence of ZIKV's membrane protein prM, and it was this particular mutation that seemed to be at the heart of microcephaly in new-born infants.
What is going on at the molecular level? Most of what is currently known is based on knowledge acquired on other flaviviruses. In a nutshell, all viruses consist of a lipid envelope that surrounds the protein coat, which itself protects the virus's genetic material (DNA or RNA). Many viruses infect cells by recognising them, fusing to their membranes, slipping inside, inserting their genetic material into the cell's nucleus and using its machinery to replicate. New viruses are then formed and released from the host cell to infect other cells. In flaviviruses, the newly-formed envelopes are made up of an equal amount of precursor membrane (prM) proteins and envelope (E) proteins that are organised into heterohexamers. When the virus goes through the host cell's Golgi apparatus, a lowering of the pH changes the shape of the E proteins that shift from a trimeric state to a dimeric state, thus preparing them for fusion with the host cell's membrane. The prM proteins, however, are perched on top of the E proteins to form a sort of screen which prevents fusion. Fusion occurs once prM has been cleaved; only then can the mature virus exit the host cell.
«Microcephaly in infants could be un unfortunate side effect caused by Zika virus that has reached neuronal cells at a very early stage in brain development.»
So what happened with ZIKV? Why did it take a sudden interest in foetal neuronal cells? Before giving a tentative answer, it might be a good time to mention that ZIKV - like other viruses - is able to cross the blood-brain barrier. So its presence in the brain is not a scoop, but the effects it has on the foetal brain are. prM has a direct role in viral maturity, i.e. in the release of newly-formed viruses from the host cell. The mutation that has occurred in prM could have an effect on viral maturation, by creating a sort of imbalance in viral progeny which has a ricochet effect on neurovirulence. A second intriguing hypothesis is that the mutated prM has turned it into a receptor for neural cells. This would mean that virions are able to recognise and preferentially adhere to brain cells. It's a very attractive suggestion. ZIKV was first transmitted to humans in the 1950s, but if it wanted to stick around and adapt to humans in a stable manner, it would need to find a way to do so. The mutated form of prM could be a way for ZIKV to recognise human cells more effectively. Consequently, microcephaly in infants is an unfortunate side effect caused by ZIKV that has reached neuronal cells at a very early stage in brain development.
Vaccines are currently being developed but none are yet available, and ZIKV infection has dropped - thankfully - to such an extent that scientists are worried that they will not have time to proceed with clinical trials. Several countries are worried that they will have to face a sudden future outbreak, as there have been in the past, and not have the means to deal with it. As always, much remains to be understood. But it is fascinating to realise that though viruses are not provided with intelligence - as we define it - they are able to find ways of adapting from one species to another for their survival, as they are also able to outdo drugs that were designed to destroy them.

Threw this one together for my boy David out west.
I enjoy making these DJ/Club posters because they remind me of club kid days of past. I used to design these type of flyers back in the day. I had the chance to work with some really awesome promoters and super star DJ's. The flyers would be distributed in New York and also in Philadelphia. Lots of fun! So it's very cool to have these designs distributed in California.
Making these flyers also remind me of running with an old kru that COULD rock-it late night, all up in da clubs of NYC, as well as the all nighters we had at some of Philly's greatest underground parties.
Anyway, if you haven't listened to Ample Mammal or The Polish Ambassador, then you need to get up on it—SON!
Here is an FB link to more details. This show is not to be missed.
Ya'll gonna like this one… Take a moment to scroll through these alphabet inspired poster illustrations. If you're stuck for time, then go right to the initial letter of your first name. That'll get you reading others.
Of course my fave is the letter O. O is for Optimus Prime Obliterating Oompa Loompas!
In the life and times of a designer, you come across situations where you have the opportunity to make things that will inspire and be creatively interesting, only to be quickly shot down and replaced with an awful idea.Today this happened to my buddy Mike. Then, another friend Matt, responded with this phrase… "From awesome to awful in a matter of minutes".
This comment sparked today's TMD as well as a poster challenge between Matt and myself.
So for everyone out there, keep in mind that no matter how much fun you are having it can go from awesome to awful in a matter of minutes.


school is good, kids enjoying there very much. Teacher was too green for K1, K2 teacher is more experiences.
My son studying this school, he love it, and I can really feel the teacher is passionate and this school is religious , students are loving and caring.
We hope our boys can study and learn at a happy school.
I hope to use this site and look into more school.

It has been a productive weekend, with about 4500 words written for the Rose of Relange role-playing game rules. That may sound like a lot, but after formatting it will only be around 15 pages or so.
Still, I did complete some parts that were desperately calling out to make their way into file.
Big encouragements for me this weekend were the responses I received from four people concerning the rule set and game mechanics. Responses were positive, with all people polled (a whopping four!) looking forward to the game. There was some wonderfully constructive criticism regarding the system mechanics that have led me to reconsider a few rules. So I've made some changes, looked around, slept on the changes, had some coffee and I think they may be for the best. When play testing starts I suppose we will see how robust the system is.
Discussion with one of the Game Masters who will be heading up a play test group went well. My old buddy James is coming through like the legend he is (go go Chubbs!!) and his enthusiasm has really pushed me to step up the writing.
I'm looking forward to what this week brings for Sinopa Publishing, and the continuing effort to make the best books possible.
My first children's book, titled "Momma taught me Manners" has been sent to be illustrated. I am looking forward to seeing what the art will look like!

Solar Opposites: Watch the First Trailer for Hulu's Animated Comedy from Rick and Morty's Justin Roiland
Rick and Morty co-creator Justin Roiland brings a new adult animated series to Hulu in May.
By David Griffin
Updated: 7 Apr 2020 11:43 pm
Posted: 25 Mar 2020 3:30 pm
While we're waiting for Rick and Morty to resume its long-awaited fourth season on Adult Swim, co-creator Justin Roiland has another surreal animated sci-fi tale to share - Hulu's Solar Opposites, which has just debuted its first official teaser trailer.
The series, which will premiere its entire season on Friday, May 8, 2020, is co-created by Roiland and Mike McMahan. Per Hulu, "Solar Opposites centers around a team of four aliens who escape their exploding homeworld only to crash land into a move-in ready home in suburban America. They are evenly split on whether Earth is awful or awesome. Korvo (Roiland) and Yumyulack (Sean Giambrone) only see the pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty while Terry (Thomas Middleditch) and Jesse (Mary Mack) love humans and all their TV, junk food and fun stuff. Their mission: protect the Pupa, a living supercomputer that will one day evolve into its true form, consume them and terraform the Earth."
Watch the hilarious new trailer for Solar Opposites below:
Solar Opposites also features a who's who of guest actors including Alan Tudyk, Alfred Molina, Christina Hendricks, Jason Mantzoukas, Liam Cunningham, Rainn Wilson, Tiffany Haddish, and many more.
Have you watched Solar Opposites?
Here's a message from Roiland and McMahan: "Solar Opposites is coming! We can only show you the teaser right now, but the whole season will be out in a matter of weeks! Stay inside and stay healthy so you can watch and love this show and call us geniuses and all that s**t."
Check out the official art for the series below:

Zinc takes the heat out of colds
Tara Parker-Pope
February 17, 2011 – 3:00AM
NEW YORK: There is still no cure for the common cold, but zinc may be the next best thing.
A sweeping review of medical research shows that when taken within 24 hours of the first runny nose or sore throat, zinc lozenges, tablets or syrups can cut colds short by an average of a day or more and sharply reduce the severity of symptoms.
The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, a respected medical clearinghouse, said some studies found that the benefits of zinc were significant.
A March 2008 report in The Journal of Infectious Diseases, for example, found that zinc lozenges cut the duration of colds from seven days to four, and reduced coughing from five days to two.
The study authors offered no guidance on what type of zinc product to buy, dosage, formulation or duration of use, saying that more work was needed.
"Overall, it appears that zinc does have an effect in controlling the common cold," said Meenu Singh, the review's lead author and a professor in the department of paediatrics at the Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research in Chandigarh, India. "But there still needs to be consensus about the dose."
Many over-the-counter zinc products may not be as effective as those studied by researchers because commercial lozenges and syrups are often made with different formulations of zinc and various flavours and binders that can alter the effectiveness of the treatment.
"A lot of preparations have added so many things that they aren't releasing zinc properly," said Ananda Prasad, professor in the department of oncology at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit and a pioneer of research into zinc as an essential mineral.
The new report gives credence to the long-debated theory that zinc can be an effective treatment for colds. While it is not certain how the mineral acts, it appears to have antiviral properties that prevent the cold virus from replicating or attaching to nasal membranes.

Get the first look at HCA's tower in the North Gulch
Getahn Ward
gward@tennessean.com
An office tower in the North Gulch will rise 14 stories along Charlotte Avenue, and will also feature street-level retail, according to new documents obtained by The Tennessean.
The office tower, being built by HCA, will be complemented by both street parking and a parking garage.
In May, hospital giant HCA completed its purchase of the 10.5 acres where it is planning major construction for two of its subsidiaries, Parallon Business Solutions and Sarah Cannon Research Institute.
HCA's portion of the Capitol View project is just a third of the overall 32-acre site.
Meanwhile, Boyle Nashville, a co-developer of the project, is creating plans for the overall site, including retail, apartments and an urban grocery.
Atlanta-based architecture firm Cooper Carry continues to work on the master plan for Capitol View, but details have emerged for the remaining 21 acres. Overall, the urban, mixed-use project will have up to 1 million square feet of office space; 300,000 square feet of retail, grocery and restaurant space; sites for two hotels; and 1,000 apartment units.
A mixed-use building at the northeast corner of 11th and Charlotte will include a five-story, 250-unit apartment community on top of 80,000 square feet of retail space, including a 49,000-square-foot urban grocery store. Earlier this summer, Boyle said the plans for the building call for it to be completed shortly after the two HCA subsidiaries move into the new headquarter at the end of 2016.

Who ever loved that loved not at first sight? ? Christopher Marlowe, 'Hero and Leander'
About Christopher Marlowe
Marlowe is believed to have written all his poems and translations as a young man studying at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. He was born in 1564, the same year as Shakespeare, and was the son of a shoemaker.
Ovid's elegies are about the pleasures and pains of love, often cheerfully erotic and comic. In the 'Fifth Elegy' of Book One, Marlowe captures the sensuality of Ovid's writing, touched with beauty and delicacy. His heroic couplets wittily render the balance and poise of the original; the result is a marvellous celebration of sexual love.
'Hero and Leander' reworks the tragic story of Hero's longing for Leander, the priestess of Aphrodite: he is drowned while swimming to her at night across the Hellespont and she then in despair throws herself into the sea. The first of the extracts recorded here describes an earlier swim across the Hellespont and Hero's wrestles with Neptune, presented as an elderly paedophile. The second brings Hero at last to Leander and describes sexual passion with delight, but also with notes of farce, embarrassment and regret.
'The Passionate Shepherd to his Love' was among the best known of Elizabethan lyrics and was endlessly imitated, parodied and answered, well into the seventeenth century. A garbled version of one stanza appears in Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor.
Marlowe seems to have turned to writing plays near the end of his time at Cambridge. Dr Faustus, from which the speech recorded here is taken, was written in the last year of his short life. It illustrates the extraordinary mastery of the blank verse line he had achieved by the time of his death.
It has been said that Marlowe's temperament seems to have been violent, even criminal. After Cambridge, he was employed by the Privy Council as a foreign intelligence agent. In 1589 he was involved in a street fight in which the poet T. Watson killed a man. Early in 1592 he was deported from the Netherlands for attempting to issue forged gold coins. In 1593 he was arrested at the house of Sir Thomas Walsingham and summoned to the Privy Council to answer charges of blasphemy arising from evidence given by his playwright rival, Thomas Kyd. His supporters, however, argue that he was framed, and his name blackened, by his enemies.
There is no dispute however (except by people who believe his death was faked and that he went on to write the plays of Shakespeare) that on 30 May 1593, aged twenty-nine, he was killed by an acquaintance, Ingram Frizer, in a Deptford Tavern after a quarrel over the bill.

"As Acting Administrator of the EPA, Mr. Wheeler has continued his predecessor's agenda of undermining policies meant to move our country away from oil and towards renewable fuels. During his nomination hearing, Mr. Wheeler claimed to be implementing the Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS) the way Congress intended. The truth, however, is very different. Under Mr. Wheeler, EPA has continued to abuse policies meant to assist small refineries to help Big Oil companies like Exxon and Chevron--that have billion dollar profits--at the expense of the American farmer.


Tesla is definitely the finest electric car manufacturer and it has some interesting models in its global line-up. Not only an amazing looking roadster but it also offers Tesla Model S sedan which is one of most handsome looking sedan in the market and interestingly all that is pure electric. The Model S was launched a while back and as the company started delivering the same to its customers lately, it also announced of a revolutionary charging system which it expects to roll out in a year.
Why we call it revolutionary? Well the system is quite fast and when I say I really mean it. It is so fast that it can transfer driving range at a rate of 300 miles (483 km) per hour with its fast charging system.
Tesla chief technology office J.B.Straubel said that the company has been working on a new fast-charging system and it has finally developed it. A 90 kw, 440 volt Supercharger that can fully charge a vehicle with 438 kilometers of range in just 60 minutes. He added that the technology is no science fiction and confirmed that the company will unveil the technology in less than one year.
Compared to the current 240 volt high power home wall charging system, the new system is at least 5 times faster than the ongoing system and nearly 10 times faster than the 50 km range/hr mobile connector which is designed for recharging when you are away from home.
Such superchargers will be positioned at convenient locations along major interstates throughout the US and will be used for quick refilling and not for everyday use.
Talking a little about Tesla Model S which is the first model with a range that equals Supercharger's recharge/hr rate. It features a high performance 85 kw battery pack that delivers a full range of 483 km. The same produces 310 kw of max power and 600 Nm of max torque and can sprint from 0 – 100 km/hr in just 4.4 seconds. Later Tesla will also bring two cheaper variants of Model S that will feature 40 KW and 60 KW battery options which are targeted to get more buyers for Tesla Electric cars. We will keep you posted on the latest developments, stay tuned.

Africa's first class of Earth Jurisprudence practitioners graduate
September 6, 2017 - 12:58 pm September 14, 2017
By Hannibal Rhoades
"The root causes of the crises facing Africa today, like land grabbing and ecosystem degradation, date back to colonialism and the human-centred thinking that sees us as superior and having rights that override those of other beings", says Dennis Tabaro.
Dennis, an affable former accountant, did not always see things this way. But over the past three years, he and five other civil society leaders have undergone a transformative training in the philosophy and practice of Earth Jurisprudence that has changed their view.
An eco-centric philosophy of law and governance, Earth Jurisprudence recognises that humans must govern themselves according to the ecological laws and limits of the Earth system, as indigenous peoples have done for millennia.
Blending wilderness experience and written assignments, African and western philosophical and legal traditions, advocacy strategies and practices for reviving indigenous knowledge systems, the three year course Dennis and his fellow participants have undertaken is the first of its kind.
Commended by the UN's Harmony with Nature Initiative, and developed and led by The Gaia Foundation, the course is helping nurture the African Earth Jurisprudence movement.
Decolonisation
Blessed by Kikuyu, Maasai and Tharakan elders, at the end of July, Africa's first ever group of Earth Jurisprudence practitioners graduated in a colourful ceremony in the foothills of Mount Kenya.
The graduates are comprised of lawyers, educators, former accountants and civil society leaders from Benin, Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda, South Africa and Zimbabwe. Each of them has taken a profound personal journey 'back to roots', returning to their rural childhood homes to reconnect with their community lands, elders and a body of traditional knowledge they had left behind.
"We are all born barefoot lawyers for the Earth, but as we grow up we become so consumed by the so-called modern world, by the city, that we easily forget. As Africans many of us are born in communities that are embedded in Nature. This course has helped me to become myself again", says Fassil Gebeyehu, one of the new graduates from Ethiopia.
This de-colonising process is an integral part of the course. It aims to give practitioners an opportunity to re-appreciate ecological place-based knowledge and spirituality that have been demonised by, amongst others, colonists, missionaries and multinationals.
"People in Africa face many challenges in practicing traditional cultures that protect Nature. They are often accused of witchcraft or rejecting modernity. This is a big challenge. But when we see Nature through the eyes of these traditional cultures, this is what brings us back to life", says Method Gundidza, another graduate.
Long-held and constantly adapted bodies of African traditional ecological knowledge have been severely undermined. Yet they are a source of identity and strength around which communities can organise in challenging times, says Liz Hosken, The Gaia Foundation's South African Director and co-facilitator of the course.
"The training for Earth Jurisprudence Practitioners responds to the growing realisation in Africa that the continent has a rich cultural heritage of ecologically rooted traditions. We need to draw on these to forge a viable future and deal with climate change and the scramble for land. Traditional African customary laws and governance systems are founded in Earth Jurisprudence. Africa's heritage is her future", says Hosken.
The newly graduated Earth Jurisprudence practitioners are working with communities in six African nations to revive and enhance their traditional ecological knowledge and governance systems, including agroecological farming practices.
Method Gundidza
Using and adapting skills developed during the three-year course, Method Gundidza has been accompanying his childhood community of Bikita in Zimbabwe, to revive traditional knowledge and practices for climate-changed times.
Recent years have brought extreme weather to Bikita. Seasons of devastating drought have been swiftly followed by flooding, profoundly affecting farming and the availability of food. According to Method, part of the problem is that people in Bikita had abandoned more resilient, locally-adapted seed varieties, like millet.
"In the past people abandoned millet and the collective millet harvest as they were encouraged by companies and the government to use so-called improved seeds and chemical fertilizers. This made the people vulnerable. Millet is a very reliable drought crop. If the rains don't come, then at least the millet will grow and people will have food", he says.
Through community dialogues, Method has helped bring together elders and youth, men and women, to discuss the problems they are facing and foster solutions rooted in their own knowledge. As a result, the people of Bikita have begun to revive resilient local varieties of seed, including millet, finding that some elders had kept 'lost' varieties alive.
"This last growing season the millet was in the fields again. Even when it was very dry and the other fields were brown, the millet was green. The people are also reviving their old millet seed storage system and the community harvest happened again for the first time in many years", says Method.
The Earth Jurisprudence course, and the work of the graduates, is part of a wider global movement seeking to transition humanity from a destructive to a mutually enhancing relationship with the Earth.
Rights of Nature cases, campaigns to recognise ecocide as a crime and indigenous peoples' struggles to defend their sacred territories are part of a shift underpinned by Earth Jurisprudence understandings.
"Earth Jurisprudence is the philosophy underlying Rights of Nature. Rights of Nature is really just a tool to get us to the end game which is … exercising our duty, our responsibility to live in relationship with the Earth", explains lawyer and prominent Rights of Nature advocate Linda Sheehan, Director of Planet Pledge.
At pan-African and international levels, Africa's first Earth Jurisprudence practitioners are advocating for Earth-centred laws and policies that support communities' ecological governance systems.
Earlier this year, the graduates successfully encouraged the African Commission to pass a radical new resolution calling on all African states to recognise and protect Sacred Natural Sites – places of critical ecological, cultural and spiritual importance for many African communities.
The graduates were also prominent participants in the UN Harmony with Nature Initiative's 2016 online dialogue on Earth Jurisprudence, which was presented at the UN General Assembly last September.
Building the African Earth Jurisprudence movement, the first group of graduates will now act as mentors to a new group of students embarking on this three-year training for transformation.
Hannibal Rhoades is Communications and Advocacy Coordinator at The Gaia Foundation, a UK-based organisation working internationally to support indigenous and local communities to revive their knowledge, livelihoods and healthy ecosystems.

Feeling both positive and negative emotions is a natural part of being human. We might use the word "negative" to describe more difficult emotions, but it doesn't mean those emotions are bad or we shouldn't have them. Still, most people would probably rather feel a positive emotion than a negative one. It's likely you'd prefer to feel happy instead of sad, or confident instead of insecure.
What matters is how our emotions are balanced — how much of each type of emotion, positive or negative, we experience.
Negative emotions warn us of threats or challenges that we may need to deal with. For example, fear can alert us to possible danger. It's a signal that we might need to protect ourselves. Angry feelings warn us that someone is stepping on our toes, crossing a boundary, or violating our trust. Anger can be a signal that we might need to act on our own behalf.
Negative emotions focus our awareness. They help us to zero in on a problem so we can deal with it. But too many negative emotions can make us feel overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted, or stressed out. When negative emotions are out of balance, problems might seem too big to handle.
The more we dwell on negative emotions, the more negative we begin to feel. Focusing on negativity just keeps it going.
Positive emotions balance out negative ones, but they have other powerful benefits, too.
Instead of narrowing our focus like negative emotions do, positive emotions affect our brains in ways that increase our awareness, attention, and memory. They help us take in more information, hold several ideas in mind at once, and understand how different ideas relate to each other.
When positive emotions open us up to new possibilities, we are more able to learn and build on our skills. That leads to doing better on tasks and tests.
People who have plenty of positive emotions in their everyday lives tend to be happier, healthier, learn better, and get along well with others.
The negativity bias is a natural human tendency to pay more attention to negative emotions than to positive ones. It makes sense when you think about it: Negative emotions call our attention to problems — problems we might need to deal with quickly. Tuning in to negative emotions can be a survival mechanism.
The negativity bias has a downside, though: It can make us think a day went badly, not well, even if we experienced equal amounts of positive and emotions that day. It takes at least three times as many positive emotions to tip the scales and make a day seem like a great one.
Building habits that encourage us to feel more positive emotions can help us be happier, do better, and reduce our negative emotions. Building positive emotions is especially important if we're already dealing with a lot of negative feelings such as fear, sadness, anger, frustration, or stress.
Notice and name your positive emotions. Start by simply focusing on your feelings. You can tune in to your emotions in real time, as they happen. Or take stock at the end of the day, noting how you felt in different situations. For example, you might feel proud when you answer a question right, joyful when your puppy chases you around the yard, or loved when your mom shows up at your game.
When you first start doing this, you'll probably need to remind yourself to focus on your emotions. But — like any habit — it gets easier the more you do it.
Pick an emotion and act to increase it. Let's say you choose confidence: What helps you feel confident? How can you get more of that feeling? You might give yourself a "Yes, I can!" pep talk before a test. Or maybe you stand up straighter and practice walking through the halls in a confident way, feeling strong and powerful.
Positive emotions feel good, and they're good for you. Pay attention to these powerful tools and find ways to make time for them in your everyday life. Create room in your day for joy, fun, friendship, relaxation, gratitude, and kindness. Make these things a habit and you positively will be a happier you!

namespace correct, class and file name correct, and all other functions from other classes have nothing to do with this :) check the line where there is GameManager::run() in TeamPvP class.

i already know there is one about this, but i didn't understand it.
Thank You for your help.

A: You have a type hint
public function __construct(\MCrafters\TeamPvP\TeamPvP $plugin)
{
 parent::__construct($plugin);
 $this->plugin = $plugin;
}

So when you go to instantiate MCrafters\TeamPvP\GameManager you have to pass it an instance of \MCrafters\TeamPvP\TeamPvP
$team = new \MCrafters\TeamPvP\TeamPvP();
$manager = new \MCrafters\TeamPvP\GameManager($team)

OITNB Actress To Be Girls' First Black Female Character
Callie Beusman
Filed to: girlsFiled to: girls
girls hbo
danielle brooks
Girls has attracted a lot of criticism for the overwhelming whiteness of its cast; at first, Lena Dunham's response was to say that she feared she couldn't accurately speak to the existence of women of color.
Why We Need to Keep Talking About the White Girls on Girls
In the three days since Girls first aired on HBO, the conversation about the show has gone from a…
As Stage 2 in Responding to Race Critiques, Dunham had a black male character (Sandy, played by Donald Glover) date her character, Hannah, for two episodes. This fictional relationship dissolved in a strange meta-response to criticism about race: Hannah defensively and feebly responded to Sandy's accusations of race myopia and tokenism, which was met with a diegetically-acknowledged eye roll provided by Sandy. Now we are on to Dunham's third attempt to respond to criticism about race representation, and it looks like she might finally have gotten it right: according to a recent interview with actress Danielle Brooks, there will be a black, female character on Girls season 3.
(Brooks is best known for playing Taystee on Orange is the New Black; Taystee is best known for being one of the best characters on all of TV right now.) When asked what was next for her in a recent interview with Ebony, Brooks responded:
Of course you're going to get to see a lot of Taystee in season two and I just shot an episode of 'Girls' for HBO. I will be the first Black woman to be on 'Girls,' so that's exciting for me. Other than that I just don't know. I'm hoping Melissa McCarthy will hit a sister up.
Although Brooks may be the first black woman to appear on Girls, it doesn't seem that she'll be the only one this season — earlier this year, Lena Dunham Instagrammed a picture of Daily Show correspondent Jessica Williams "getting powdered and primped on the set of #girls":
Both of these women are remarkably talented and unbelievably hilarious; it's wonderful to see them cast in such a critically-acclaimed and widely watched (and feverishly discussed) show — plus, it's refreshing and encouraging to see Lena Dunham working to promote more diverse representation, instead of clinging to her old "but my experience is white experience!" excuse. Only time will tell whether these character arcs will be longer — and more thoughtful and in-depth — than Glover's.

For the Poetics prompt at dVerse Poets Pub today, Mish wants us to write poetry inspired by the Southwest, by the desert. I love the desert—the warmth and dryness appeal to me in a way the green and rain of the Pacific Northwest (where I live now) never could.
This entry was posted in Poetry and tagged Cactus, Desert, dVerse Poets Pub, Faith, Holy Spirit, Hope, Jesus, Life, Living Water, Love, Poem, Poems, Poetry, Rain, Spiritual Dryness, Word of God. Bookmark the permalink.
Nicely developed metaphor, Linda. I just drove through the Mojave on Sunday. It never fails to entice me…the wild flowers, not as profuse as wetter years, still bring joy. Still thrive even in aridity, as we often are called to do.
That is a wonderful metaphor!! His love is like water in a desert!
The repetition works wonderfully well in this beautifully written poem, Linda.
Excellent metaphor. I especially like the notion of going through life as a prickly pear cactus.
A perfect analogy from start to finish. This is so strong, Linda and has to be one of my favourites of yours so far.
Thank you! I think I'm getting the hang of this metaphor thing, and not giving away the plot before it's time.
Psalm One (used to have it memorized.) Very well done, Linda!!!
I enjoyed your comparison to the cactus with the storing up your faith, Linda…lovely.
The prompt made me think of the verse that talks about the tree planted by the river nor worrying about the drought, but then I had to translate that into desert terms where there is no stream, only intermittent rain. I enjoyed this prompt very much.
Although, not a Christian, I like your usage of the cactus, as a metaphor, for your faith. A very creative and not, a heavy handed pronouncement of your belief, which I like.
LOVE this, Linda. We're less than two hours from Death Valley, and it is an area my son adores. I also share your faith, and love how you wove living water into this.
A wonderful metaphor for faith – we store up those beliefs and they do indeed sustain in times of trial and tribulation. Grateful for every day.
This is a sweet metaphoric triumph, L.–important message without preaching; very effective & creative.
I so enjoy this poem! storing up Living Water for survival the same as a cactus stores up rain. Well done.

NEW OCTOBER TREE ALBUM IN THE WORKS
Tammy's song, "Nocturne" has also inspired the album's name, "Night Music".
NEW SONG - A NIGHTMARE ON GOAT MOUNTAIN
John Swope is currently working on his drum parts for A Nightmare on Goat Mountain. Dennis Zielinski will play Organ. Matt Sweitzer and Steve Whitworth will do the electric guitars, and I played the bass and acoustic guitar.
OCTOBER TREE GOES TRANSATLANTIC
Dennis Zielinski of the Swedish band, Egonaut is our new Hammond player. We just got the first tracks back from him and we love what he is doing with the music. Dennis uses and endorses the "Organ Grinder" pedal from LounsberrypPedals.com.
Visit Dennis at:

Tracy Collins and I have played together in many bands starting back when we were 19 years old. I played a lot of the keyboards on "The Fairy's Wing" myself, so we are very pleased to announce that Tracy will take over that role, playing piano, and synths. This will be a major upgrade to the sound!
Tracy's music production website is:

Tracy produces and sells excellent sample libraries at his "Indiginus" company website:

Greg Lounsberry
About half of the album has been stood up on the timeline. Matt, Tracy and Dennis are currently working on their parts. Tammy is at work on the song "Nocturne", that I am really excited about. 11/3/2015
"The Fairy's Wing is easily one of the most impressive debuts I've ever heard; the sextet creates and performs with one shared mind, and it's a regal, earthly mind at that. Somehow, the album captures in music form the wonder and enchanted mystery of childhood fairy tales; however, they write, produce, and perform as skilled masters. The future of the genre will indeed be bright with bands like October Tree at the helm, and I for one can't wait to hear what they do next."

READ REVIEWS OF THE FAIRY'S WING BY OCTOBER TREE IN THE FOLLOWING PRINT MAGAZINES:


It is a slow trading day today with not much of economic reports to go by. In a quiet trading session, the scheduled speech by ECB President, Mario Draghi due later this evening will be in focus. The ECB president is expected to speak at an awards ceremony in Italy and his comments will come after last week's ECB monetary policy meeting where the central bank left interest rates and QE unchanged.
Despite the European Central Bank leaving monetary policy unchanged, the euro fell on the day on Thursday last week but managed to recover by Thursday's close. The euro has since then been trending strongly against the U.S. dollar which is hit by weaker sentiment and uncertainty from the new Donald Trump administration.
However, the euro is unlikely to maintain the gains currently as the UK awaits the Supreme Court ruling on Brexit due tomorrow. It is widely speculated that the Supreme Court will rule in favor of the UK putting the Brexit referendum to a parliamentary vote which could be negative for the euro.
Combining the above factors, it suffices to say that the EURUSD could remain range bound within 1.0800 and 1.0600 price levels with lack of any clear catalyst to keep the momentum going.
EURUSD is likely to continue its ascent towards 1.0800 resistance level in the short term. Price action posted a strong reversal in the early part of December at this level sending the single currency to lows of 1.0400. A retest of this resistance level could yet again prove hard to break which could keep EURUSD biased to the downside. This bearish view is also validated by the hidden bearish divergence that is seen on the daily chart for EURUSD.
Therefore, look to purchase daily PUT options at 1.0800 – 1.0790 resistance level for a 21:00 GMT expiry time as we suspect that EURUSD will be turning weaker in the coming days this week following a retest to 1.0800 resistance level.

Q: Django DRF: Make serializer field value equal to another one I am creating an endpoint to reset the password and have created the serializer, views and I am using django.contrib.auth.forms to get the data and send email to the user.
The form requires to type the new password two times but what I want is, to write it only once and make the value of new_password2 equal to new_password1. For example, I want to change the password on Swagger and it doesn't make sense to type it twice because it is a normal CharField and not a PasswordField.
This is the serializers.py ResetPasswordConfirm class
class ResetPasswordConfirmSerializer(serializers.Serializer):

    new_password1 = serializers.CharField(max_length=128)
    new_password2 = serializers.CharField(max_length=128)
    uid = serializers.CharField()
    token = serializers.CharField()
    set_password_form_class = SetPasswordForm

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super(ResetPasswordConfirmSerializer, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
    self.set_password_form = None

def validate(self, value, *args, **kwargs):
    try:
        uid = force_text(uid_decoder(value['uid']))
        user = User.objects.get(pk=uid)
    except (TypeError, ValueError, OverflowError, User.DoesNotExist):
        raise ValidationError({
            'uid': ['Invalid value']
        })

    self.set_password_form = self.set_password_form_class(user=user, data=value)
    if not self.set_password_form.is_valid():
        raise serializers.ValidationError(self.set_password_form.errors)
    if not default_token_generator.check_token(user, value['token']):
        raise ValidationError({
            'token': ['Invalid value']
        })
    return value

def save(self, **kwargs):
    return self.set_password_form.save()

And, the API View
class ResetPasswordConfirmAPIView(GenericAPIView):
    serializer_class = ResetPasswordConfirmSerializer
    permission_classes = (AllowAny,)

@method_decorator(csrf_protect)
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
    return super(ResetPasswordConfirmAPIView, self).dispatch(*args, **kwargs)

def post(self, request):
    serializer = self.get_serializer(data=request.data)
    serializer.is_valid(raise_exception=True)
    serializer.save()
    return Response({
        'detail': _("Password has been reset"),
    }, status=status.HTTP_200_OK)

I tried different ways to make new_password2 == new_password1 but I get errors. Any suggestion?

A: You can leave only new_password1 in serializer and update data which you send to form inside validate method:
class ResetPasswordConfirmSerializer(serializers.Serializer):

    new_password1 = serializers.CharField(max_length=128)
    uid = serializers.CharField()
    token = serializers.CharField()
    set_password_form_class = SetPasswordForm

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(ResetPasswordConfirmSerializer, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.set_password_form = None

    def validate(self, value, *args, **kwargs):
        try:
            uid = force_text(uid_decoder(value['uid']))
            user = User.objects.get(pk=uid)
        except (TypeError, ValueError, OverflowError, User.DoesNotExist):
            raise ValidationError({
                'uid': ['Invalid value']
            })

        new_value = value.copy()
        new_value['new_password2'] = value['new_password1']

        self.set_password_form = self.set_password_form_class(user=user, data=new_value)
        if not self.set_password_form.is_valid():
            raise serializers.ValidationError(self.set_password_form.errors)
        if not default_token_generator.check_token(user, value['token']):
            raise ValidationError({
                'token': ['Invalid value']
            })
        return value

    def save(self, **kwargs):
        return self.set_password_form.save()

But I think it's also possible and more clear to do it without form, you can use django's validate_password function to validate password. I didn't test it, but you can try something like this:
from django.contrib.auth.password_validation import validate_password

class ResetPasswordConfirmSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
    new_password1 = serializers.CharField(max_length=128)
    uid = serializers.CharField()
    token = serializers.CharField()

    def validate(self, value, *args, **kwargs):
        try:
            uid = force_text(uid_decoder(value['uid']))
            user = User.objects.get(pk=uid)
        except (TypeError, ValueError, OverflowError, User.DoesNotExist):
            raise ValidationError({
                'uid': ['Invalid value']
            })

        if not default_token_generator.check_token(user, value['token']):
            raise ValidationError({
                'token': ['Invalid value']
            })
        validate_password(password=value['new_password1'], user=user)
        return value

    def save(self, **kwargs):
        user = User.objects.get(pk=self.validated_data['uid'])
        user.set_password(self.validated_data['new_password1'])
        user.save()
        return user

The security of our information systems is constantly under attack. We propose that to make them safer, we should attack them even more. Setting up a competition where two or more sides try to defend their network against an adversarial team will provide an outlet for new and emerging defensive technologies and techniques. This competition will provide an environment where new defensive tactics can be deployed against real hackers. Two similar events that have been publicized recently are the DEFCON "capture the flag" competition and the military Cyber Defense Exercise. The two competitions follow different paradigms. The DEFCON event set all teams to be both attackers and defenders, while the Cyber Defense Exercise focuses the teams on defensive operations only.

Robin Oliver Cumberland & Beyond – The Art of Farming
Mr John W Davison at his Northumberland Farm with his Texel Shearlings ahead of an upcoming Hexham Auction Sale. Copyright Robin Oliver 2019.
'Drawings from Cumberland and beyond; the Art of Farming' is a continuing project by Cumberland born and resident Artist Robin Oliver, whose interest, and love of farming originates from the fact that he grew up at an Isolated Hill Farm situated within the North Pennine Hills of Cumberland (now called Cumbria).
This ongoing enquiry into the art of farming was inspired by a 2019 Farm Sale which the artist attended and recorded during the early summer. As he observed the people and the auction lots in front of him, Robin began to consider why it was that the Farm Sale had arisen, and what it meant to the people involved, in the context of any research evidence available, which asserts that we are continuing to lose our farms across the country for a variety of reasons. In light of some further enquiry, Robin felt that he ought to attempt to record what was happening within the farming communities, while it was actually happening, rather than when a farm subsequently has been lost, and become yet another prime residential development site, or may even become derelict.
Mr Anthony Hartley with his 2019 World Champion Herdwick at Eskdale Show. Copyright Robin Oliver.
In this context, Robin asserts that the role of the artist is not simply to attempt to create 'pretty pictures' which afford a romantic view.
'The Farm Sale', as summed up by the Artist is about endings, however, for some it is about maintenance and progression (those farmers who go to the farm sales to add to their own endeavours and farms), and for others it is about new beginnings (those who are starting out having purchased a farm, or taken on a tenancy or croft). In essence, this is the cycle of life and farming.
Eden Valley Ewe Aerobics. A quick drawing from life made in the field Copyright Robin Oliver.
Robin feels that he is attempting to highlight the struggle and the joy that farming can be through his direct engagement with farmers as they are farming across the United Kingdom and the Island of Ireland in a highly collaborative way.
The project is rather like a river which meanders, from each meeting it is hoped that something positive will grow. It is about capturing a moment, which may lead to more moments, where the Artist's role, as he sees it, is to engage, look, listen, learn, empathise, and to record. Where appropriate, telling a story, whatever that story might be, working in a variety of media. This may simply be making a photograph, drawing, painting, and, or writing. Sometimes it is about reading between the lines, and at times it will be not telling the story at all, as many things remain confidential.
Shepherd's Crooks & Walking Sticks after judging at the Eskdale Show 2019. Copyright Robin Oliver.
There are hidden issues, problems, concerns, anxieties, social isolation, and possible loneliness. For example, single farmers working the land with minimal interaction with the outside world. Or farmers who are on the brink of bankruptcy. And what of farmers of colour? Are they represented in our communities at all?
Robin is particularly keen to consider and make art in response to the issue of 'Succession' as a theme and backdrop to the Cycle of Farming Life. This area of study highlights those individuals working within the industry who have no one in the family too, or who wish to follow on.
What we know for certain is that farmers experience many joys, successes, satisfaction, and disappointments, however, the suicide statistics for farmers are certainly alarming.
To be able to visit a farmer at his work and make some photographs as an example is a privilege and a starting point which gives a reason for a meeting. It is also a means of highlighting the true Art of Farming as it is practised today within a diverse range of settings, landscapes, and endeavours. Some contacts will be the only meeting, or these meetings may be repeated over time, taking a Collaborative approach where the individual farmer may decide upon the context of any work undertaken jointly. The project overall is creating an ongoing archive ('a snapshot of Farming life today') across many miles. Ideally, an Initial Portrait of the individual will be made.
As well as meeting with some of the Farming community across the Island of Ireland in August, Robin says that he was privileged to be able to observe and photograph events at 'the 151st Eskdale Show', held on Saturday the 28th September 2019 where he felt incredibly humbled when witnessing the men and women who came together in celebration of their Herdwick flocks, and the wider farming industry, despite anything that the weather could throw at them. Hard-working, determined, dedicated, kindred spirits, meeting together, showcasing their stock, competing for the title of 'World Champion Herdwick.' which this year was won by Mr Anthony Hartley and one of his Herdwicks from the Turner Hall Flock.
In addition, Robin was pleased to reiterate that he has returned to meet with Northumberland Farmer, Mr John W Davison, who the artist had recorded earlier this year, preparing for the 'Dispersal sale' of his and his wife's very fine 'Langley Flock' of accredited pedigree 'Bleu du Maine sheep.' A highly significant and historical event according to Robin because a dispersal sale may only be described as a dispersal sale where every registered sheep belonging to that flock is offered for sale. Further, the flock name will be thereafter terminated and cannot be resurrected by the present holder or used by any other member or future member. However, the Council under 'the British Bleu du Maine Sheep Society' rules retains the right to grant re-use of the flock name only on consideration of special circumstances. Friday the 16th of August 2019 clearly was a significant date, in the History of Northumberland farming and of the Davison Family, which went exceedingly well, and History was in fact made, as Robin had predicted it would. Particularly so, in the case of one of Mr Davison's young Rams, out of his former Langley Flock Ram, named Maunby Butch and the outstanding auction price achieved.
Mr Davison's gradual preparation for 'retirement' is exactly what Robin is aiming to record in his studies along with highlighting the very difficult decisions which farming families are required to make when facing the future.
These are the unsung heroes of our countryside, quietly and skilfully working away at their art, despite a great deal of adversity, bureaucracy, and hardship, which is all the more reason why the artist believes that we ought to take the time, to celebrate and promote them and their invaluable work.
Robin would like to hear from any individual working at their farm today, who may wish to arrange a meeting, particularly, those facing any of the issues which Robin is attempting to record, in addition to highlighting, in general, the Art(s) being practised by anyone in farming and agriculture.
Robin is happy to record aspects of the landscape only, the stock kept, or agriculture undertaken, in addition to making portraits of the individual as a stand-alone image, or recording farming in action in the field.
When time allows Robin likes nothing better than to sit down with his Drawing book to make some very quick impressions of Farm stock, for example, his 'Eden Valley Ewe Aerobics' which demonstrates his efforts in capturing and depicting the character of farm animal subjects.
You may find more information about Robin Oliver's farming study, travels, and drawings in search of farmers farming as curated by the artist via his website gallery; www.robinoliverartist.co.uk
Please click on the heading 'FARMING FOCUS.' In addition, there is a 'FEATURE' section showing a slide show of images made at that initial farm sale. The images displayed will change over time as the project progresses.
It is hoped that there will be exhibitions of the work and the Artist's growing archive along the way, including a publication, or publications of the Farming Art made.

R/C 1/10 Mazda MX-5 (M05)
This R/C assembly kit model recreates the 4th generation of the Mazda MX-5 (also known as the Roadster in Japan and the Miata MX-5 in the U.S.), the iconic car with a heritage dating back to 1989 and total sales in excess of 950,000. The dynamic and lightweight car was made to amplify the thrill of driving, with a punchy 1.5-liter (2.0-liter in North American market cars) in-line 4-engine and 6-speed transmission, while including modern must-haves such as advanced safety equipment.
The Tamiya R/C model faithfully captures the fun and manoeuvrability of the real life subject as it comes on the proven M-05 M-chassis platform. The M-05 is a simple to build FWD (front wheel drive) machine, which allows for plenty of after-market parts to be outfitted as you grow with your skill. The lightweight, narrow semi-monocoque frame offers an optimized weight distribution and a low center of gravity. A ground-hugging 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension and a 3-piece steering linkage ensure excellent stability during high-speed cornering.
Three wheelbase lengths (210mm, 225mm, 239mm) are possible by simply switching the position of the rear suspension parts, enabling a wide range of body choices available from Tamiya.
