For hundreds of young African-Americans gathered in the nation's capital for a few days to learn about leadership, visiting the White House to be encouraged by President Donald Trump definitely was a high point.
James Boone, 32, of Bowie, Maryland, told The Daily Signal on Saturday that he found the president's characterization to be accurate.
More than 400 young people from age 15 to 35 attended the summit, which ran Thursday to Sunday. Turning Point USA, a conservative education organization that targets millennials, provided lodging and some meals at no expense to attendees.

Jean-Christophe Simon Elected New President of Europa International Featured
Iulia Blaga 2017-11-28
Jean-Christophe Simon
BUCHAREST: Jean-Christophe Simon, CEO Films Boutique, has been elected new president of Europa International for the next two years. The decision was made at the 6th Annual Conference of Europa International, that took place in Bucharest from 24 to 26 November 2017. A new board was also elected.
"We are in a very moving environment, first of all because we don't know what is going to happen with Brexit, which will be one of the big changes in 2018, with an impact on all the European institutions and funds. We are still involved in a lot of discussion about the future of cinema such as VoD windows and the obligation of investment for broadcasters", Jean-Christophe Simon told FNE.
Aside its general assembly and showcases, Europa International also organised in Bucharest the conference Set the Trend (exploring new digital business models) and the panel Sexual harassment in the business: What can be done?
Founded in 2011, Europa International aims at improving and increasing the international distribution and circulation of films.

Last week I attended Ag Careers Live in Birmingham, where I was privileged enough to work on the mentor's corner and meet numerous young people keen to pursue careers in agriculture.
One thing that really struck me is the number of young people who – at the age of 18 (or sometimes even older) – do not know what they want to do for a living.
But maybe even more shocking is how scared or worried these young people are about the fact they don't have a plan in place.
My advice to those who were worried about not knowing what they want was simple. Don't panic.
Many people, myself included, didn't know they wanted to pursue a career in the sector they now work in, and they are sometimes in that job as a result of luck, fluke or chance rather than planning.
So if you are in the position of the unknown, here are a few helpful tips to help you figure it all out.
Possibly the best thing you can do to figure out career options is push yourself outside of your comfort zone. Sometimes what you are looking for comes when you're not looking for it at all.
When I applied to do my placement year at Co-op I was dead set on a career in the genetics sector.
I just went for the Co-op job because it had an early deadline and even if I didn't get it at the very least it was interview experience.
Lo and behold, they offered me the job and I had the most amazing placement year and as a result am now pursuing a career in retail – one I wouldn't change for the world.
If you aren't certain about the career options that the farming industry offers, grab a pen and paper and map out some potential career paths.
Go to a local agricultural event or exhibition, ask a few people from different businesses as to how they got there, maybe even have a look at some successful people on LinkedIn and see how they got there.
Mapping out some ideas will allow you to understand the options available to you, then all you have to do is pick the one you like the most and get chasing it.
It is OK to not have a plan, but at the same time do not waste this time when you can be adding value to your CV – something you will soon be needing when you figure out what you want.
At the same time, you may decide a career path in which you have little experience, which puts you at a disadvantage to other applicants when applying for jobs.
So, the best thing you can do at this stage is add as much varied experience to your CV as possible.
This could be different sectors or areas in agriculture, and this will help prove you are flexible, experienced and able to adapt.
Plus this will increase the likelihood that you already have experience valuable for the job role you choose.
Another great tool at your disposal is a mentor. I have four, each from different areas in the industry and each with a lot of experience in their respective areas.
If you have a mentor you can capitalise on the experience of someone else. They can give impartial and confidential advice on your new-found plans and help you avoid mistakes or issues.
So in simple terms, don't fret if you don't know. The world is your oyster.

Mitophagie (von  und ) bezeichnet eine Form der Autophagozytose, bei der gezielt Mitochondrien abgebaut werden, indem Verdauungsbläschen Mitochondrien umhüllen. Diese werden zerlegt und Bestandteile davon einer weiteren Verwendung zugeführt.

Mitophagie kann verschiedene Auslöser haben:
 Schädigung: Geschädigte Mitochondrien stellen durch die potentielle Produktion von Sauerstoffradikalen (ROS) eine Gefahr für die Zelle dar. Diese müssen beseitigt werden.
 Alterung: Gealterte Mitochondrien können in ihrer Leistung eingeschränkt sein und bilden  potentielle ROS-Quellen.
 Entwicklung: Bei der Reifung roter Blutkörperchen werden die Mitochondrien vollständig degradiert.
 Nährstoffmangel

Es wird vermutet, dass ein Mitophagie-Defekt eine Rolle bei der Parkinson-Krankheit spielt. Die Mitophagie erfolgt unter anderem über die Bildung von Omegasomen.

Paul Shih – Toy Designer, Illustrator & Artist.
Since my first release of iPhone 5/5S/SE cases with COOP, I've got requests for Samsung phones and newer iPhone cases, so here they are, an updated line up of new phone cases for all your iPhone and Galaxy phones!
Each design comes in 2 options, slim & tough. The slim case is a hard, one piece plastic shell that snaps right onto your phone. While it's ultra slim at 2mm thick, it still offers protection. And the tough case is made up of two pieces for extra protection (a 2mm plastic outer shell that fits into a 2-4mm rubber bumper) without sacrificing sleekness!
Result! I'm happy with how it turned out, especially the semi-transparent skirt. I've also replaced the lollipop with a metal cross that I forgot to document. Anyways, you can check out my Lolligag "Calamity" at QPop from this Friday.
Opening reception: Saturday, March 25, 2017 from 7 to 10PM.


The Marketing Committee will meet Wednesday, March 17th at 7:30p.m. at our Parish Rectory (21 Sidney Place – walk past the front of the Church, cross Aitken Place – the white brick building surrounded by a school) . Please come and help us develop plans to "grow our parish". We value your input and would love any help you can offer!

Fade in the object. This is a shorthand for the animate() method. It only passes an object with opacity: 1 to the animate() method. See the animate() method for more details about the arguments.
We create a new core instance and a rectangle that we add to the canvas. Then we bind an event handler to the canvas, which will clear the animation queue and start the fade animation, when the canvas is clicked.

Meet The Young Women Asking To Be Sterilised
Meet The Young British Women Choosing To Be Sterilised
Rachel Segal Hamilton
Lara doesn't want kids - not now, not ever - and she's known it since she was only a kid herself. "I was in primary school, leaning against a playground wall with my friends, coming up with names for our children like Chantelle or Sadie and I remember going with it because you don't want to be bullied for thinking, 'I like human beings but I don't want a child.'"
The number of UK women not having children has been rising steadily since the 1940s according to the Office for National Statistics. And, although some women may have wanted to become mums, there are also many for whom popping out the 2.4 sprogs expected by society simply doesn't feature in their life plans. Some women are, in fact, so certain of this that they're opting to have surgery to make sure it will never happen.
Carried out under general anaesthetic, sterilisation involves tying the fallopian tubes or blocking them using clips, rings or implants. It's 99% effective in preventing pregnancy, although you can still contract STIs. Although the attraction for some women is that it's permanent, it can sometimes be reversed. Alternatively, women who have had it can still conceive using IVF. However, neither of these are guaranteed and they're unlikely to be readily offered by our cash-strapped NHS.
"I've never wanted kids but for a while I just assumed I would eventually," says 31-year-old journalist Holly Brockwell, who featured in Young and Sterile: My Choice, a recent BBC Three documentary about young people who choose to get sterilised. "It's drummed into women that the 'biological clock' is a real thing, a light in your head that just comes on when you get to the right age." Holly got sterilised at age 30 after four years of begging her GP to refer her for surgery.
"Having babies isn't the only way to leave a legacy."
Lara has discussed sterilisation with her GP too, but each time the conversation is brushed aside for another year. Lara isn't Lara's real name by the way. It's still pretty taboo for a woman to declare themselves happily childfree, so she preferred to speak anonymously, anxious about potential backlash. The stereotype goes that women who aren't mothers must either hate kids or hate themselves. Childfree men tend to get an easier ride - just compare the media treatment of "sad, childless" Jennifer Aniston to that of "sexy bachelor" George Clooney, pre-Amal.
In talking about sterilisation with friends and strangers, Holly's come up against a whole spectrum of negative reactions that range from faux concern about her mental health to questions about who'll care for her in old age. She's even been subject to nasty accusations of being "dead inside" or not being a "proper woman".
"The only reason I can understand people for being angry with me is if it's someone who wants kids and hasn't been able to have them," she says. "When you're in that kind of situation, well, you have my permission to hate me for throwing my fertility away. I'd give it to someone else if I could." She has explored egg donation but wouldn't qualify since she's a cystic fibrosis carrier.
Doctors in the UK, following guidelines issued by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG), are cautious of offering sterilisation to healthy, childfree women under the age of 30, principally because there are now other long-lasting contraceptives that are as effective as sterilisation and which can be reversed.
"Why do something which you could regret medically or psychologically when actually there are really good contraceptives there?" says RCOG spokesperson Dr Kate Guthrie. Holly found the pill made her seasick, and Lara has had the three-month injection, but worries about the long-term impact of high dose hormones.
Still, there's a risk of side effects from sterilisation, too. You could suffer from worse periods, particularly if you're younger when you have the operation, Dr Guthrie points out, but she admits that the commonly held view Holly mentioned earlier - the idea that most women want kids in the end - also has an influence.
"Perhaps that's reflected in the culture of sterilisation, the paternalism of saying, 'Oh you'll change your mind,'" she adds. "But it's because people do. It's borne out by experience. If you're a doctor and you're sitting there seeing someone crying because they wish they'd never been sterilised that impacts on how you practice your medicine."
But if sterilisation is a permanent decision, so too is having children. However much you love your kids, parenting can be a relentless slog at times and if you fuck it up, you're not just fucking up your own life. Because they're simply sticking to the status quo, parents-to-be may not necessarily think this through as much as non-parents do.
"It's such a big deal," stresses Lara. "If I'm not going to be wholehearted about it, I don't think it's fair on the child." Ultimately though, wanting kids, not wanting kids - neither are rational positions, they're about how you feel. Lara again: "It's like if someone said you've got to be a teacher. I'd hate that. It just doesn't fit my character."
Before she got sterilised, Holly says she lived in constant fear of getting pregnant. And two years ago it happened. "I cried day and night because despite everyone saying, 'You'll feel different when it's your own,' I still didn't want to be anyone's mother. It was horrible. I didn't think I'd be able to go through with an abortion, so I was going to carry the little one to term and find a family for them, which I know would have broken me emotionally." Because she miscarried naturally after a few weeks, it didn't come to that but she was left more convinced than ever before that she doesn't want children.
BBCThree
Holly has written widely about her personal experiences - facing some brutal trolling in the process - because she believes it's important to raise awareness of the issue so that in the future women like Lara feel emboldened to speak up. "Women like me needed to see that they weren't alone, and GPs who were against it needed to see that we could make just as much sense as women who want kids."
And, although she reckons the number of women who don't want kids is probably about the same now as it's always been, she's optimistic that it's finally becoming more OK to talk about it. "I imagine a lot of the people who had babies in years gone by didn't actually want to – I know my mum didn't, but she didn't feel she had a choice. If she'd been born later, I think she'd have made the same choice as me.
"While I'm obviously very grateful that she did have kids and I get to exist, if she hadn't, who knows what she would have gone on to do? Having babies isn't the only way to leave a legacy."

Glaucomaaodunsi2018-03-16T12:42:27-05:00
By Jacob T. Wilensky, MD, Professor
Glaucoma is one of the major causes of blindness in America. It is not a single disease but rather a group of conditions that have different causes, manifestations, and treatments. What ties these conditions together is an increased pressure inside the eye (elevated intraocular pressure) that causes the death of retinal nerve cells and thereby produces blindness. It occurs predominantly in the elderly, but can occur at any age from birth onward.
A fluid called aqueous humor is constantly circulating in the front part of the eye. It brings nutrition to the lens and to part of the cornea, as these structures have no blood vessels to perform that function. The ciliary body constantly produces new fluid that flows through the pupil into the anterior chamber. This fluid then leaves the eye through a drain called the trabecular meshwork. In glaucoma something interferes with this flow such that the aqueous does not leave the eye as rapidly as it is produced, increasing the pressure inside the eye. This high pressure in time leads to the death of retinal nerve cells (those cells that actually "see"), thus leading to blindness.

Two main types of glaucoma occur, depending on the individual eye. In some eyes the anatomic structures are close and crowded together. Because of this configuration, under certain circumstances, the iris can come forward and touch the back of the cornea. When this happens, access to the Trabecular meshwork is blocked, the aqueous cannot leave the eye, and the intraocular pressure rises rapidly. This type of glaucoma is called angle closure glaucoma. The eye may become red and may tear a lot. The cornea may become "steamy" producing blurred vision and rainbows or halos around lights. A person may experience pain in or around the eye and occasionally nausea and vomiting. This acute form of glaucoma can cause rapid loss of vision leading to total blindness in merely a day or two if appropriate treatment is not promptly instituted.
The immediate treatment of angle closure glaucoma consists of eye drops that make the pupil small (Miotics) and liquids taken orally or intravenously that shrink the volume of the eye and thereby decrease the intraocular pressure. This therapy is only temporary. The permanent treatment of angle closure glaucoma requires making a hole through the iris (Iridectomy). This usually is accomplished with laser energy that is focused into a special, very powerful light beam. Occasionally, however, it is necessary to perform a surgical procedure, in which a piece of the iris is removed with scissors.
The other major type of glaucoma is open angle glaucoma. It is the predominant type of glaucoma in the United States. It has a higher prevalence in African-Americans and Hispanics. This condition progresses very slowly and is often symptom-free until very late in its course. The intraocular pressure rises gradually over a period of months to years and slowly causes loss of vision. Usually the side (peripheral) vision is lost first, and only late in the disease is the central or reading vision affected. Because of this lack of symptoms many patients with open angle glaucoma are unaware that they have the disease and that they are losing sight. Regular ophthalmic examinations that include measurement of the intraocular pressure (Tonometry) an examination of the optic nerve head with an ophthalmoscope will permit detection of the disease, even in the symptom-free patient.
The treatment of open angle glaucoma primarily entails the use of eye drops to decrease the pressure inside the eye. These drops must be used daily and usually more than once a day. Some patients require several different kinds of eye drops to control the glaucoma. In a large majority of patients these drops successfully control the glaucoma and prevent blindness. In the remaining patients, laser treatments or surgical procedures that create an artificial drain for the eye can be used to control the glaucoma in most instances.
Commonly asked questions about Glaucoma
There is definitely an increased familial incidence of the two types of glaucoma that have been discussed. Someone who has a parent, brother, or sister with one of these types of glaucoma will have about a one in ten chance of developing the condition. There are other secondary types of glaucoma that may or may not be hereditary.
Are eye pressure and blood pressure the same thing?
No. Some people have high blood pressure but normal eye pressure, and vice versa. However, some (but not all) of the drugs that are used to treat high blood pressure also lower the intraocular pressure.
Should glaucoma patients stop drinking coffee?
Glaucoma patients who drink a lot of any clear fluid, whether water or black coffee, can experience a temporary increase in their intraocular pressure. Therefore, glaucoma patients should not drink a lot of fluids at one time. Our study of glaucoma patients who drink two cups of regular coffee a day showed that coffee has no greater effect on glaucoma than other beverages.

Staff take Mandarin lessons at Selfridges
28 October 2011By Ruth Faulkner
Chinese language training is being given to staff at Selfridges in Manchester to help capitalise on the rising number of Chinese shoppers visiting the store.
The store is working with the Confucius Institute at the University of Manchester to train staff, primarily in the accessories and cosmetics departments, to help familiarise them with Chinese shopping habits and customs.
The training is comprised of two elements, language and culture, according to Katie Popperwell, events and marketing co-ordinator at the Confucius Institute.
"The language training gives staff a grounding in basic language elements, including how to greet customers in Mandarin and ask them if they need help," she said.
"The cultural element is more about Chinese customs and getting staff to understand the reasons behind Chinese shopper behaviour."
Selfridges said the aim of the training was to ensure Chinese visitors to the store had the best possible shopping experience.
The Manchester store's general manager Jane Sharrocks said: "We've noticed an increasing number of Chinese visitors to the store – many of whom are students based in and around Manchester."
Selfridges said it plans to offer the training to more staff in the store and will look to implement similar training at its other stores.
Selfridges is not the first retailer to recognise the growing importance of Chinese spending power to the retail sector. In February, Harrods, where profits recently broke the £1bn barrier due to a rise in international shoppers, said it would start accepting Chinese debit and credit card UnionPay.
In May, bosses at Harvey Nichols and Harrods again called on the UK Government to relax visa restrictions to make it easier for high-spending Chinese shoppers to visit London.
French luxury brand Chanel is also believed to be training some of its staff in basic Chinese language.
According to figures from tax-free shopping firm Global Blue, Chinese visitors to the UK spend 70% of their holiday money on goods to take home, compared with between 25% and 30% for US visitors. Fashion is the category they spend most on.

Being able to hunt and shoot without a license is something that could come in handy in a many a situation, so it's important to know what your options are. If you spend time hunting and need weapons that can take down any sized game, take the time to search for the most powerful air gun without license.
Don't think that finding the most powerful air gun without license is a pointless venture. Think practically, the truth is that you never know what emergency situation you may find yourself in. So, when the time comes, you want to be in the right mind to think about what you might need.
Purpose: you need to know what you'll use your air gun for. There are different types and models, so you need to make sure that you choose the right one.
Shooting Range: you'll find air guns grouped into 4 main categories – low, medium, high (magnum) and super-magnum.
Gun Type: the main gun types that you will come across are spring guns, gas rams, and PCPs.
Style: the style of the gun has to do with the way it's shaped and looks. This is a matter of personal preference that doesn't have much bearing on the gun's shooting ability.
Trigger Quality: this is another factor that you need to decide on based on your intended use of the gun.
Power: resist the urge to buy a gun with high power just because. Instead, choose to buy a gun with the power you will actually need.
Pellet Gun: choosing high-powered pellets gun will be more affordable and quieter.
These are the important features to pay attention to as you search for your air rifle.
The Gamo Whisper Cat Air Rifle is ideal for you if you plan to use your gun to hunt small game and keep any pests on your property under control. The pellet gun is made from all-weather synthetic stock and comes in all black. This means that you can go out hunting whether it's raining or snowing.
The manual trigger safety and automatic cocking safety system ensure that no accidents happen with your weapon.
If you're looking for a value that comes with good quality, the Daisy 880 Air Rifle might be what you need. This kit comes with the rifle, 500 pellets, 750 BBs, safety glasses and even a scope with rings. This pellet gun with catch up with your game fast, as it fires pellets at 715 feet per second.
The use of this gun is appropriate for adults and teenagers over the age of 16, so make sure you keep it safely stored when you're not using it.
To enjoy an air gun that has a traditional rifle look about it, check out the Crosman Benjamin Air Rifle. This gun is colored like wood and even has a thumbhole stock for comfortable shooting. The gun is strong, and the pellets move very fast once you shoot.
You will be able to continue hunting no matter what season it is, as the Crosman Air Rifle is designed to withstand cold temperatures and still perform. Another positive about this rifle is that it shoots quietly, especially when you use pellets. Over time, the gun gets worn in and the shooting becomes even quieter.
Another classic looking gun in wood color, the Hatsan air rifle is made to last over time. The combo includes three 9×32 scope and mount pieces so that you can begin shooting right away. The Hatson rifle is built sturdily and you will appreciate its hefty feel in your hands as if you were using a standard rifle.
The gun is ideal for hunting small game like squirrels and dealing with any pest issues you face. One thing to be aware of is that the barrel-break action will likely feel stiff the first few times you shoot. Just break the gun in and you'll feel more comfortable.
The Ruger spring piston break-barrel gun is reasonably priced and good for use by beginners and experienced hunters and shooters. It's made with an adjustable fiber optic rear-right and a fixed fiber optic front sight. This air gun works with a single shot coking mechanism for simple shooting.
Being prepared for emergencies is possible when you take your time and find air rifles that can be bought and used without a license. The most important thing when investing in any firearm is to make sure that you have proper training before shooting. Better safe than sorry!
