History >> World War 2 for Kids
The Marshall Plan and Recovery
After World War II much of Europe was destroyed. Armies from both sides had bombed roads, bridges, supplies, and communication facilities throughout Europe. Europe needed to rebuild.
This was not easy however. Many governments were in debt or out of money because they had used all their resources in fighting the war. On top of this, their economies were devastated making it difficult to collect taxes in order to rebuild. Many people did not have enough food to eat let alone money to pay taxes.
Fear of Communism
The United States, as well as much of Europe, had allied with the Russians in order to defeat Hitler and the Germans. However, now they were worried about the Russians and the spread of communism. If Western Europe did not rebuild and grow strong quickly, it may soon fall to communism.
Fortunately, the land of the United States had been free of war and devastation. The US economy was doing well, making the United States the richest country in the world. They wanted to help Europe and their allies recover from the War.

The Marshall Plan
In order to help Europe recover from the war, the United States came up with the Marshall Plan. It is named after Secretary of State George Marshall. The Marshall Plan offered help and finances to European countries in order to recover from World War II.

Although the US had already been helping Europe to recover, the Marshall Plan made it official in 1948. Over the next four years the US gave $13 billion in assistance to Western European countries. The US also offered assistance to Russia and its allies, however, they turned it down.
By the time the Marshall Plan funding ended, all of the countries that participated had larger economies and were stronger than before the war. The plan was successful in helping Western Europe recover economically from the war.
George Marshall was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1953 for his contribution to the Marshall Plan.
The Marshall Plan helped with supplies for factories. For example, the plan supplied carbon black to a tire plant in Birmingham, England keeping the plant open and 10,000 workers with jobs.
The US also helped to improve technology and manufacturing techniques in a number of European countries.
Winston Churchill said that the Marshall Plan was "the most unsordid act in history".
Japan was not a part of the Marshall Plan, but did receive US economic aid through other programs.

Procurement is the process by which businesses and government agencies solicit and acquire facilities, services and materiel. CommonWealth offers a comprehensive set of services to guide public managers and project sponsors through the procurement process deliberately and successfully. Typically, this process requires defining business objectives and/or service requirements for a project or program; developing minimum technical specifications and/or performance standards; defining the procuring entity's preferred risk profile and business terms; and establishing the criteria and methods for qualifying proposers and for evaluating the overall responsiveness and cost of vendor proposals or bids. For complex projects, the procurement may be part of a larger development process that involves the project sponsor directly in siting a facility, managing public participation processes, developing a financing strategy, and negotiating inter-municipal and other multi-party agreements for the supply of waste, the disposal of residuals and the marketing of recyclables, energy or other resources.
We work with clients as necessary to establish the environmental, customer service and/or business objectives for the facility or service being procured, and develop as applicable any design, performance and/or service delivery requirements that the contemplated procurement must address.
We help clients translate plans into action by helping them select an appropriate project financing and procurement approach and establish a realistic procurement schedule. In this connection, we also help our clients identify the technical, economic and financial risks associated with the project, and establish the commercial terms they should seek or require in the vendor contract. The resulting action plan defines the contemplated transaction at the level of detail necessary to enable preparation of high-quality procurement documents, facilitates internal review and coordination, and helps to assure sufficient vendor interest for bidding to be competitive.
We prepare requests for qualifications (RFQs), requests for proposals (RFPs), and proposal evaluation protocols to establish the basis for bid preparation and evaluation. We prepare documents that encourage vendor response, are compatible with the client's procurement strategy, and are sufficiently detailed to support a timely and defensible evaluation, selection and negotiation process.
We conduct detailed, fully documented evaluations of vendor business, technical, and pricing proposals; manage client/vendor interactions; and assist with the formulation and presentation of selection recommendations to decision-makers, advisors and interest groups.
We prepare and negotiate service agreements, working closely with the sponsor, attorneys, financial advisors, and other members of the project team as appropriate. We prepare supplementary economic and technical analyses as necessary throughout the negotiation process to reach closure on key contractual issues quickly, and on the best available terms.
We provide continuing support to project sponsors to ensure that private contractors satisfy their service obligations. During the construction phase of a project, we develop acceptance test protocols, observe testing, and provide an independent review of acceptance test results. During project or program operations, we evaluate vendor performance, review invoices, assess proposed capital improvements or service modifications, and help resolve sponsor-vendor contract disputes.


Cleaning supplies take up one corner, paper towels and toilet paper are stacked in the lobby. Fresh pillows are stacked along the wall adjacent to the sanctuary, and a variety of donated food is in the center.
When a visitor remarks how many items are in the fellowship hall, the person is told it's about one-fifth of what it was at its peak a few days earlier.
"I think we can safely say we've ran three semi-loads of stuff through here," said Olson, pastor of the Boone County, Nebraska, church.
Twelve days earlier, floods from Beaver Creek engulfed much of the town of 700 people. At last count, 83 buildings, including 13 houses, were destroyed, and 163 people were displaced. Should those people leave, Olson said, it would take one-fourth of the town's population.
The St. Edward church, built 30 years ago, had water encroach its front yard and onto the concrete parking lot that was just poured last year. Olson feared the water would get into the sanctuary, but it didn't.
"God said, 'I'll take care of the church, you take care of my people,'" said Olson, in his fifth year as pastor at St. Edward, part of a four-point charge.
The church hosted three meals a day for about 200 volunteers and those who were displaced. Donations from Subway and Pizza Hut in nearby cities helped provide the sustenance.
Church members have volunteered to help however they could since the floods hit.
The United Methodist Church worked hand-in-hand with the local Catholic and Lutheran churches, he said. The Catholic Church serves as a shelter, while the United Methodist Church — with the largest space for the donated items — began being used after the town fire hall no longer was large enough.
The town's only grocery store, whose owners are members of his congregation, was expected to be back open in a few days. The church was the only location for food items.
Among those getting food was Jarvis Sayle, whose basement was socked with 9 feet of water.
Sayle, holding back tears, said he was grateful for what the church had done.
The church already had operated a clothing closet for the community, Olson said, and had specialized in used prom dresses – but the St. Edward High School prom, scheduled for the last weekend of March, had to be postponed.
Lisa Rasmussen was among a trio of women who had volunteered every day since the floods for the church.
Tim Stacy, a vicar at Zion Lutheran Church in Sutton, Nebraska, brought a pickup full of bedding his congregation has donated to St. Edward. Helping that church has special meaning for Stacy, a St. Edward native who attended the Presbyterian Church that merged with the United Methodists.
"They say it takes a village to raise a child," he said. "It took this village to raise me.
The experience, Olson said, has caused everyone to reach out to the community to others with whom they might not normally interact. Olson and his wife, Cindy, are housing a family in their basement and are letting another family use half of the parsonage garage for storage.
Olson and his congregation are also serving as emotional support for those whose lives have been damaged by the floods.
The bright side, Olson said, is that his congregation can now practice what he's been preaching.
A St. Edward native who also farms in the area, Olson said the flood rivals another five decades earlier.

CDC Study Shows PFAS Chemicals May Be Risky At Lower Levels Than N.H. Regulates
Home / Case News / CDC Study Shows PFAS Chemicals May Be Risky At Lower Levels Than N.H. Regulates
Originally posted by New Hampshire Public Radio by Annie Ropeik on June 21, 2018.
The federal government has published new data about the health risks of industrial chemicals known as PFAS.
The Centers for Disease Control study backs the concerns of some residents in contaminated areas here in New Hampshire, who say federal and state limits on PFAS aren't strict enough.
Many lawmakers, including New Hampshire's congressional delegation, called for the study's release after reports that the White House and Environmental Protection Agency had sought to withhold the data.
"It's about time," said Rep. Carol Shea-Porter in a statement. "Granite State communities are living with constant questions about the safety of their drinking water, and this report will help us better understand the health risks of PFAS chemicals."
The CDC study was released Thursday for 30 days of public comment, after being posted on the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry's website Wednesday.
(Click here to read the full CDC toxicology report.)
The report says most research on 14 PFAS chemicals agrees they can cause liver damage, increased cholesterol, thyroid disease, immune deficiencies, asthma, hypertension in pregnant women, fertility problems and developmental issues, including slightly low birth weigh in babies.
It also says some PFAS chemicals may be associated with kidney, prostate, testicular and pancreatic cancers.
The CDC report proposes minimal risk levels for four PFAS chemicals, based on the non-cancer risks of certain kinds of exposure.
For the chemical PFOA, the CDC's provisional risk level is 11 parts per trillion. For PFOS, it's just over 7 parts per trillion. One part per trillion is about the same as a grain of sand in an Olympic-sized swimming pool.
These limits are far lower than the EPA's current, non-binding health advisory level of 70 parts per trillion for both chemicals.
New Hampshire uses that level as its binding limit on PFOA and PFOS in groundwater.
Residents in contaminated areas, such as around the Saint Gobain factory in Merrimack and the Seacoast's Coakley Landfill Superfund site, have said that limit should be lower.
They point to limits in states like Vermont – 20 parts per trillion – and New Jersey – around 14 parts per trillion, the lowest in the country.
Even those lower standards are higher than the CDC's proposed risk levels.
New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services data shows that many areas not considered contaminated by current state standards could be deemed at risk under the CDC's proposed levels.
Merrimack resident Laurene Allen has been affected by contamination from Saint Gobain. While she doesn't expect the state and federal PFAS standards to change overnight in response to the CDC study, she wants officials to acknowledge the findings.
"As a precautionary measure, they should supply bottled drinking water to this town," Allen says.
DES commissioner Robert Scott says in a statement they're eager to review the new data and "to use this information to help inform any actions that NHDES should take based on this new information."
A DES spokesman declined to comment further.
The CDC is also proposing risk levels for two PFAS chemicals that are largely unregulated by current federal or state laws. The agency suggests a limit of 74 parts per trillion for a chemical called PFHxS, and 11 parts per trillion for PFNA.
The CDC says all these risk levels, which it calls MRLs, don't always mean you'll get sick if you're exposed at a higher level. And it says the levels aren't necessarily meant to form regulations.
"It is important to note that MRLs are not intended to define clean-up or action levels," the report says. "MRLs are intended only to serve as a screening tool to help public health professionals decide where to look more closely."
The report says four federal Superfund sites are known to contain PFAS, but it says data isn't available on how many more may have tested for it.
New Hampshire has found high levels of PFAS immediately surrounding the Coakley Landfill site, but says nearby drinking water supplies are within current state standards.
The EPA, which oversees cleanup at sites like Coakley, says it'll continue collaborating with the CDC and other agencies as it crafts new PFAS standards this year.
"Addressing [PFAS] is one of EPA's top priorities and the agency is committed to continuing to participate in and contribute to a coordinated approach across the federal government," says the agency's ground- and drinking water director Peter Grevatt in a statement.
The EPA plans to develop a maximum contaminant level for some kinds of PFAS, which would serve as a binding standard for drinking water. It also may list those chemicals as Superfund-eligible contaminants.
The EPA's first regional public meeting to get input on those plans will cover New England. It's scheduled for Monday night and Tuesday in Exeter.
Activists like Laurene Allen will speak at that meeting. They'll also take part in a protest near Saint Gobain in Merrimack Saturday.
LEGAL CLAIMS RESULTING FROM PFCS IN YOUR WATER
If your water has been contaminated by chemicals, you may have a claim against the responsible party for damages to your property or for increased health risks.
If you have been affected by the water contaminated with PFOA's or PFOS's, our lawyers can advise you or your rights and remedies. We can be reached by phone at 303-861-8800, or by filling out the contact form below.

Serbia – Jamaica Predictions, Odds and Betting Tips – 07.06.2021
⚽ Serbia – Jamaica Predictions
Serbia – Jamaica Tips and Odds. June 7, 09:00 Friendly International.
Serbia – Jamaica Preview
Since missing out on Euro 2020 via a penalty shootout, Serbia have gone seven games without defeat (W3, D4) including three under new manager Dragan Stojković which includes coming back from losing positions in two. His experience could be key to success in this one given that he's previously played and managed in Japan, the host nation for this friendly.
Topically, Serbia have lost just one of their last 11 games against nations currently ranked within five places of Jamaica (#45) in FIFA's ranking (W5, D5, L1). Notably, six of those 11 games saw a different final result than that of HT. Furthermore, whilst both teams scored in eight, five of the 11 games in the sequence produced a goalless first half.
Jamaica's preparations for the CONCACAF Gold Cup begin here as they seek confidence in their pursuit of improving a semi-final finish last time around. They have a raft of new English-based Jamaican talent in the squad, and as such this new-look side are still finding their feet, perhaps evidenced by the fact a Jamaican side featuring six English-born debutants were beaten 4-1 last time out.
Whilst they're unbeaten in eight of their last ten games (W7, D1, L2) they may find this tricky given their poor return across their last 11 games vs nations currently situated within five places of #25 ranked Serbia (W3, L8). Notably six of those eight defeats saw Jamaica trail at HT whilst seven of the 11 games saw over 2.5 goals and both teams score.
Players to watch: Aleksandar Mitrović has scored five of Serbia's seven goals since the appointment of Stojković as manager. One of Jamaica's English armada is Mitrović's Fulham teammate Bobby Reid – four of his seven strikes at club level this season were match-openers.
Hot stat: Jamaica games under manager Theodore Whitmore's current stint have averaged 2.98 goals per game, although less than half saw both teams score (46.34%).

Thunderbird – Heavyweight
If you thought the classic hair-band music of the late 70's and through the 80's was dead and gone…think again. Hard rock veterans, Thunderbird are keeping the genre alive and well, and are doing so with original, hand-crafted material. There is simply no need for cover songs with this kind of talent in your line-up:
Marc LaFrance (vocals) — Tours with Bachman & Turner and has sung on albums by Motley Crue, David Lee Roth, The Cult, and many more.
Rod Coogan — (guitar) Has played in progressive rock bands in Australia & Japan.
Kelly Stodola — (drums) One of Vancouver's in-demand session musicians.
Rob Becker & Tim Rath — (bass)
Following the success of the band's first album, 2006's What's the Word, life got the better of the boys, and they went their separate ways, scattering across the globe to Canada, Australia, the UK, and Costa Rica. Though, when the music came calling again, even that distance was not enough to keep them apart for good. Now, ten years later, reunited with a purpose, the boys of Thunderbird dug in their heels and put in the work in order to release a 16-track, flat-out monster of an album…the appropriately named, Heavyweight.
Here's what we dug the most…
Dog is just a quintessentially great hard-rock cut. A high-energy, uptempo, razor-sharp display of ax and drums…
"Do you regret the choices that you made?
Now judgment day is near, the piper must be paid
And you'll be lying here in the bed you made
Beyond a shadow of a doubt – look out!
To them you're still a dog"
The fourth and album title track, Heavy Weight—a song of triumph and redemption—offers an impressive array of dynamic transitions between its ambient verse, and its explosive (borderline metal-tempo) chorus. The musicianship here shows mastery, as each band member seems to drift, ebb and flow at their own tempo and in their own reality, yet remain on point together. This is a really, really good song.
The Set-Up immediately reminded me of Megadeth's Symphony of Destruction. Near the midpoint, there's a great slow-down/interlude that gives the song tons of personality. The track details the life of a wayward youth whose bad luck got the better of him. I would love to know who the song was written about.
Leave It Alone hits hard and shuts it down quick. Only two-and-a-half minutes long, it left me wanting more.
Steve Mulry guest-stars at vocals in On The Prowl, which brings classic rock-musician showmanship and 80's style lyrics. Seriously, it's like Warrant meets ZZ Top on this thing!
Our Favorite Track:
Go, a three minute and forty-seven second instrumental of rip-roaring, Van Halen-esque guitar. Quite honestly, the song feels like a bank robbery on steroids. It belongs on your workout playlist.
As I was taking in Heavyweight for perhaps the fourth time, I couldn't help but think of how much work and dedication the project must have taken in order to corral the five band members and three guest performers—who were spread across the globe—and keep them together long enough to record sixteen songs! It is an impressive feat, to say the least, and the effort comes off in the music. It's very clear that these guys are pros. The music is not only technically sharp, it's also adventurously creative and daring. Yes, daring. Disagree? If so, I would challenge you to try to record a 16 track album of 80's hairband style tunes which are good enough to be relevant in today's music scene. Understand? Thunderbird did it, and they deserve your respect.
Clearly, there are countless elemental reminders of—and nods toward—many legends on this album (i.e., ZZ Top, Van Halen, Motley Crue, etc.). But what I'm hearing over and over, is the blending of Skid Row & AC/DC. Yeah…it's just good stuff.

Although the word Disco refers to a music genre originated in discothèques during the 70's, for many people, it recalls a complete era of fun, freedom and enjoyment. Disco is the result of a mixture of musical genres such as soul, funk, salsa and Latin music in general characterized by the use of bass, piano, guitar, drum machine and keyboard drums. Who does not remember The Jackson 5, Barry White and Bee Gees? They were not only outstanding disco artists but are the representatives of a whole subculture that underwent a change during the 80's but that could not be defeated by the emerging musical styles of the 90's. The proof of this is that artists as Kylie Minogue, Jamiroquai and Madonna still release disco songs in the early 2000´s.


Traffic accidents kill more than a million people every year worldwide and injure or permanently disable millions more. The Middle East region ranks second highest in terms of road fatalities, according to the WHO, with Egypt alone suffering more than 7,000 deaths annually.
That's why Fogarty grantee Dr. Jon Mark Hirshon of the University of Maryland, Baltimore, chose to launch a trauma research training effort there.
Hirshon, a leader in public health and emergency medicine, has designed trauma training programs domestically and in the Middle East. He works primarily in Egypt where he's trained nearly 400 health professionals in initial assessment and management of trauma patients, and injury epidemiology. He's extended his research and training team and expertise to Iraqis (see Fogarty project provided emergency trauma training to Iraqis), Iranians, Afghans and Sudanese as well.
His current projects in Egypt are supported by a five-year International Collaborative Trauma and Injury Research Training grant from Fogarty. The main thrust of his research involves assessment of injury-related death and disability in Cairo. This information is helping public health officials plan and implement appropriate and cost-effective prevention strategies.
Hirshon's team studies practical matters such as how long it takes to get to the hospital by different modes of transportation, the delays in reaching the hospital and factors related to delays for trauma patients admitted to Ain Shams University Hospital in Cairo. In collaboration with the WHO, Ain Shams is a key research partner that serves as a growing regional resource for the study of causes, dynamics, treatments and outcomes of traumatic injury.
Data about the effect of under-triage on trauma patients at this hospital is currently being analyzed. Other studies focus on risk factors for violence among patients admitted to the hospital and how to decrease return emergency department visits. Data collection is ongoing for epidemiology of moderate and severe traumatic brain injury at another facility, Alexandria University Hospital.
of injury-related death and disability in Cairo.
Vehicular collisions account for 45% of injury deaths in Egypt. Research done by Hirshon's team analyzes human factors related to car crashes on the roads that encircle Cairo. Attitudes about traffic accidents affect behavior on the street and behind the wheel of a car. In one study, researchers interviewed Egyptian adolescents about their knowledge and attitudes about injuries and fatalism.
Despite a low belief in the preventability of injuries and a high belief in fate, surveys and focus groups revealed that young, educated Egyptians are ready for and would benefit from injury prevention programs.
"As in much of the Middle East," says Hirshon, "there is work underway in Egypt to create a shift in thinking of accidents as random and unavoidable to preventable, predicable and avoidable."
Pedestrians suffer 75% of traffic collision deaths in Egypt. A study of Cairo University students examined the relationship between risk-taking behavior and road traffic collisions. Although the risky behavior was nothing out of the ordinary, the study concluded that education on safe street crossings would likely decrease the rate of pedestrian injury.
One of Hirshon's areas of interest is providing education in cross-cultural settings and addressing the challenges that come with language barriers, educational customs and evaluations.
As in many countries, substance abuse is a problem in Egypt and a factor in trauma-related injury and death. Because of the stigma associated with drug and alcohol use among Egyptian Muslims, it has been a difficult topic to study. Hirshon is launching an effort to do so, employing the more experienced members of his team.
Hirshon's five-day training course covering initial assessment and management of trauma patients plus injury epidemiology is so successful, it's now included in Alexandria University's master's curriculum and trauma training has been made a requirement for board certification in emergency medicine in Egypt.
Another lasting impact of Hirshon's efforts is the 25 or so Egyptians he's trained in trauma and injury research who are now training others, further expanding Egypt's ability to address this critical health problem.
"With so many Egyptian nationals trained and with valuable information drawn from many research studies," says Hirshon, "the work of this Fogarty grant has increased Egyptian health professionals' knowledge and understanding of human trauma and injury prevention and helped them build up injury prevention and trauma response mechanisms in their country."

Asakusa is the heart of Shitamachi, the quarter best-beloved of that fractious, gossipy, prodigal population called the Edokko, who trace their "Downtown" roots back at least three generations.
Asakusa (浅草) is a town in the Taito Ward of Tokyo. It was the only down town area long before World War II, before Shinjuku and Shibuya became such important centers of business and commerce. Taito Ward is a part of the old "Shitamachi" or low town. This was the area of merchants and artisans who not only were lower in social standing, but the area was lower physically towards the shores and banks of the Sumida river and the surrounding areas. Asakusa's landmark, Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Kannon Temple) is the center of the area and a hugely popular destination for both Japanese and foreign tourists.
The Asakusa area is dotted with old cafes, bookstores, theaters, and shopping districts... walking around Asakusa gives you some idea about what Tokyo used to be like before the skyscrapers and neon of Shinjuku and other areas took over the city.

If you have ever dreamed of living in a completely remodeled old home, you need to see this house! A complete renovation began in late 2018 resulted in a totally modern home with a few original details thoughtfully preserved. Every house system is brand new...multi-zone central AC and forced air, boiler/hot water, new electrical service panel, new plumbing. The open concept 1st floor has all new wood floors throughout the kitchen, living and dining rooms. A fireplace with new marble hearth is the living room focal point. The kitchen features all new stainless steel appliances, honed black granite countertops and high gloss white cabinets and the tile backsplash goes all the way to the ceiling! All the lighting was chosen with glamour in mind..a dining room chandelier, a stainless steel LED kitchen pendant, and a sparkly LED entryway light..wow! A half-bath with a barn door and a laundry room complete the first floor. The 2nd floor has a stunning master suite, complete with his & hers closets and an en suite bathroom with separate tub, lipless open shower and more closet space. There are 2 additional bedrooms on the 2nd floor and they share a hall bathroom decked out in gray and white tile and featuring a marble top vanity. The original hardwood floors were preserved on the 2nd floor and refinished to match the rest of the house. The attic (accessed from 2nd floor hallway) has plenty of room for additional storage as does the light filled basement which was recently touched up with new paint and lights.You can just tell an interior designer was involved in the top down modernization of this old home.

Mirr Ranch Group is proud to announce the sale of Cielo Vista Ranch. With over 80,000 deeded acres encompassing life zones ranging from foothills to alpine—including Culebra Peak (one of Colorado's fourteeners) and eighteen 13,000 peaks–Cielo Vista is one of the most iconic ranches in the West. It is a truly a national treasure, teeming with a range of wildlife including thousands of elk, a resident herd of Rocky Mountain Big Horn Sheep, and over 100 miles of creeks harboring several species of fish. According to Editor of The Land Report, Eric O'Keefe, this marks the largest US ranch sale in 2017, and news of the sale has spread wide and far the past few days from regional publications such as The Denver Post to global news organizations like Mansion Global.
The buyer and terms are not disclosed, though listing brokers Jeff Hubbard and Pat Lancaster, both of whom are intimately familiar with the property and have guided elk and sheep hunts on Cielo Vista for over 20 years, note the stewardship of Cielo's vast natural resources, rich history and exquisite landscape is in excellent hands.
Mirr Ranch Group is well known for finding conservation and ecological buyers as evidenced by past sales such as JE Canyon Ranch, a 50,000-acre working cattle ranch in Las Animas County, Colorado, the Trees Ranch adjoining Zion National Park in southern Utah, and the Mantle Ranch, an inholding in Dinosaur National Monument. Currently, the real estate firm is seeking such a buyer for the Cross Mountain Ranch in northwest Colorado, which spans 4 counties, over 224,000 acres, and offers more than 20 miles of outstanding river frontage. Cielo Vista is the latest to add to this list.
"We are pleased to have played a roll, and congrats to Jeff and Pat for their extraordinary effort to close the sale," added Mirr Ranch Group owner/broker, Ken Mirr.

A group of European Parliament members have submitted a draft declaration to the European Parliament requiring ISPs to take action against online hate speech. Sponsored by Glyn Ford and Claude Moraes of the UK, Viktória Mohácsi of Hungary, and Bernd Posselt and Feleknas Uca of Germany, the declaration calls on ISPs to better monitor the content of the sites they host in order to keep hate speech off the web.
The five European MPs sponsoring the declaration would like to see racism and hate speech banished from the Internet completely, starting with Europe. Should European ISPs not go along, the MPs will try to get the European Commission to enact legislation on the issue, reports Heise Online.
Currently, the EU runs the Safer Internet Plus program, which intends to "promote safer use of the Internet" while fighting against "illegal content and content unwanted by" end users. The MPs are calling on the EC to act within the framework of that program to force ISPs to take hate speech and racist web sites online.
The MPs efforts to ban hate speech face the same fundamental obstacles that other legislative efforts to govern content on the Internet run into. For everything from hate speech to digital piracy, the Internet's carefully designed lack of respect for international borders always thwarts efforts to eradicate certain types of content from the 'Net as a whole.
A related problem that afflicts European anti-hate speech legislation in particular is that laws defining illegal speech differ markedly from one country to the next. It may be illegal to sell Nazi memorabilia in Germany, but keeping eBay's online auctions completely free of such stuff has posed a problem precisely because it's not illegal to sell it in other countries.

14 Reasons Why the NBA Draft Lottery Is Rigged
By KJ Doyle / June 21, 2021 June 28, 2021
TweetFacebookEmail
Just kidding! The NBA Draft Lottery isn't rigged. Sorry to break it to you. There are so many practical and logistical reasons why it couldn't be rigged, but for clear proof, look no further than the NBA's YouTube channel. First, representatives from every team, members of the media, and an independent accounting firm oversee the process first-hand. In recent years, the league has even gone as far as to record the entire proceeding and post it on their YouTube channel. Just watch for yourself.
And before you start, theories of "weighted ping pong balls" would be silly to throw out there considering multiple combinations are drawn and any weighted ball would impact other outcomes and eventually be obvious. For this event to be rigged, everyone would have to be in on it. In this day and age, no one could keep a secret that big.
So, you may be asking yourself, why is this article titled "14 Reasons Why the NBA Draft Lottery is Rigged"? One, because I feel no remorse for clickbaiting the conspiracy theorists that actually believe this ridiculous fantasy. Two, because I felt like the people who don't fall into this line of thinking would actually be relieved rather than feeling clickbaited. If that's not the case, oops! Sorry! Three, because I'm going to list the 14 arguments people will make for the NBA Draft Lottery being rigged no matter who gets the #1 pick on Tuesday night. And four, it was a good title. The best I could think of. It got you to click on it and read this far, didn't it?
Why would I do this? To prove that regardless of who actually wins the lottery, there's always some dumb reason that people can come up with to argue that the lottery is rigged. It doesn't matter who wins. Even when the Pelicans won in 2019, people claimed it was because the NBA felt bad about Anthony Davis forcing his way out. How can anyone actually believe that the NBA wanted Zion Williamson in New Orleans? So, I figured if I came up with a reason that the lottery is rigged for every team before it happens, that would help prove my point. I probably won't change anyone's mind, but I don't care. This is more just for fun. Not all of these will be good, but not all of them are supposed to be good. As you know, not every argument for why the lottery is rigged is. I will say, I could use some of these for multiple teams and I'm sure they will be used for different teams, but I wanted to come up with 14 different ones.
1. Rockets: "The NBA is trying to make up for the James Harden trade."
2. Pistons: "The NBA wants to replenish value in one of their historic franchises."
3. Magic: "The NBA is repaying the city of Orlando for helping them form a bubble last year."
4. Thunder: "The NBA wants to keep one of their smallest markets relevant. They're trying to keep stars in Oklahoma City."
5. Cavaliers: "The NBA loves giving the Cavaliers #1 picks, they do it all the time!"
6. Timberwolves: "The NBA wants to make the Timberwolves into their next young superteam."
7. Raptors: "The NBA is giving the Raptors the #1 pick to make up for them having to play outside of Toronto all year."
8. Bulls: "The NBA wants another star in Chicago next to Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic."
9. Kings: "The NBA is tired of the Kings being bad because their playoff drought is not good for the league."
10. Pelicans: "The NBA wants to do everything they can to keep Zion in New Orleans."
11. Hornets: "The NBA let the Hornets jump up last year to get LaMelo Ball and now they're doing it again this year. Suspicious? They're helping their buddy Michael Jordan out! They give him high picks all the time! Kwane Brown, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, he just keeps blowing them!"
12. Spurs: "The NBA wants to give Gregg Popovich another star to coach before he retires."
13. Pacers: "The NBA wants to give Cade Cunningham a young roster with proven playoff pedigree where he can succeed for years to come."
14. Warriors: "The NBA wants the Warriors to dominate the league again and they want to help out their golden child Steph Curry!"

Recipes with sugar
Pucker up for this lemon cranberry splash cocktail! Unlike most of the cocktails I write about, this tipple I concoted myself. Well, that's not to say that others don't do the exact same thing, but in my travels, I have never seen one exactly like it.
The lemon and cranberry flavours seem to blend together, but there is a bit of a sour aftertaste. That's why I usually like to rim my glass with sugar to offset the tart flavour of the fruit.
For the lemony flavour, I like to make my home-made lemonade. It takes a bit longer to prepare, but I prefer natural ingredients as opposed to the shop-bought version. However, I have been thinking about having a go at combining limoncello with a bit of cranberry juice to substitute for the lemonade. Using both limoncello and vodka will make the cocktail as a whole a bit stronger, though. So if you are considered a lightweight drinker, you could probably just take out the vodka all together.
As I said before, this is really just playing around with flavours. And in all honesty, I believe this is still a work in progress. I don't believe I have quite perfected the recipe yet, so if you have any ideas, leave a comment and let me know!
A food complement to this cocktail might be these lemon and sesame chicken breasts.
Recipe type: Cocktail
A work-in-progress tart cocktail
8cl freshly-squeezed lemon juice
6cl water
5g sugar
1 lemon peel swirl
2 cranberries
Squeeze the lemon juice into a large pitcher.
Stir in the sugar until it completely dissolves.
Add the water and the splash of cranberry juice, stirring all the while.
When mixed together, pour the cranberry lemonade into a cocktail shaker with the vodka and ice.
Meanwhile, use a slice of lemon to moisten the rim of your martini glass.
Dip it in sugar so that it is completely covered.
Shake the ingredients in the cocktail shaker until condensation forms on the outside of the glass.
Pour into the martini glass and garnish with a lemon swirl and the cranberries.
The real story behind the first daiquiri
Cuba, for some reason, has always been a source of inspiration for the invention of drinks. There are many stories about bars like La Bodeguita del Medio, where Ernest Hemingway used to drink, and the history of sugar cane is attatched to the history of rum as much as it is to the history of the country. Today, I want to tell you about a very well-known cocktail, which can be mixed with a number of fruits and is a classic in Cuba and worldwide: the daiquiri.
On the 20th June, 1898, American troops landed in Cuba to get involved in the Hispanic-Cuban-American war. They chose two beaches to do so: Siboney and Daiquiri, the latter near Santiago de Cuba in the south of the country. The American soldiers were wearing winter uniforms when they set out on their campaign, and dehydration became a huge problem. When they joined the Cuban forces, though, they were saved by a refreshing drink that the local soldiers served them: "La canchánchara", a mix of rum, water, lemon and honey.
Many years after that event, Emilio Gonzalez (also know as "Maragoto"), a Spanish bartender, took that formula and turned it into a fancy cocktail served at the Plaza Hotel in La Habana. After that, it was inmortalized by Constantino Ribalaigua, "El Gran Constante", at La Floridita, another famous bar in the Cuban capital. He tok the original recipe and invented the "frappé daiquiri", a "Below Zero" version of the first daiquiri, using loads of ice and also adding a few drops of marraschino, a very delicate, sweet and scented liqueur. Then he gave it the magical touch: he just poured everything into a blender and the mix came out looking like a snowflake.
Maraschino liqueur is used in various cocktails, among which includes the morello aviation cocktail, a cherry-flavoured delight. It is a perfect, yet subtle, complement to many tipples. And garnishing it with a maraschino cherry is the finishing touch!
To begin with, it was known as the "Wild Daiquiri" or the "Original". Over the decades, it has been modified so many times there is practically a different recipe and fruit in every summer resort around the world. The story of the drink, however, remains the same, as does the original mix of one of my favourite cocktails.
1 spoonful of sugar
Half a squeezed lemon
Plenty of grinded ice
A drop of maraschino liqueur
1. Place all the ingredients in a blender and shake for at least 30 seconds.
2. Garnish with a lemon or lime wedge with a maraschino cherry.
Tom Collins
During my years on the road, I have learnt a great deal about local drinks and mixes in the different regions I have visited. And although every country is proud of a particular beverage, there are drinks which are famous anywhere you go. The Tom Collins is one of them. Whether in South America or Asia, in a big city or a beach bar, this cocktail is a must on every bartender's list.
The main ingredient to a Tom Collins is gin. It's a tremendously refreshing drink and great to sip on hot, damp afternoons while watching the West Indies play England at cricket in Barbados. This is actually where I started drinking it.
According to history, the Tom Collins was first mixed by an American bartender named James Collins, somewhere in the state of New York in the late 1870s. As the story goes, he used Old Tom gin, a sweeter type than the London dry brand, to prepare the cocktail. He then named the drink using a mix of both his name and the gin's.
The Tom Collins became so famous worldwide that there is even a cocktail glass named after it. It became so popular, that it has inspired a load of spin-off drinks such as:
John Collins (replace the gin with whiskey)
Joe Collins (replace the gin with scotch)
Ivan Collins (replace the gin with vodka)
Sloe gin Tom Collins
To me, it tastes like delicious lemonade, with no noticeable alcohol trace. This can be very dangerous, especially on a warm afternoon in a tropical country. In other words, be careful how many you drink if you intend to walk back to your hotel after 7 hours of cricket.
45ml Old Tom gin
1 teaspoon of super fine sugar
60ml club soda
1 slice of orange
1. In a shaker half-filled with ice cubes, combine the gin, lemon juice and sugar. Shake well.
2. Strain into a Collins glass almost filled with ice cubes.
3. Add the club soda.
4. Stir and garnish with the cherry and the orange slice.
Most people know that the wonderful climate in Spain is an essential element in the creation of some stunning Spanish wines, as well as other beverages.
When I was about 19 years old, I travelled to Spain with a couple of friends, and at that age, we just wanted to enjoy the Spanish "fiesta" during its best season: summer. We travelled through various cities like Madrid, Barcelona, Málaga, Valencia and Granada, and all of them had one absolutely refreshing drink in common: Sangria. Although mostly associated with summer, it can be found throughout the year, especially in the warmer Southern parts of Spain. (For another dark fruit drink, try this dragon-blood punch.)
Sangría comes from the Spanish word 'sangre`, which means blood. The drink's colour is dark red, thus the name. The strength and taste can vary depending on the spirit and quantity used.
Sangria is a kind of red wine punch that is thought to have been created during the 15th century in Spain and then spread to Portugal. However some people believe that it was actually invented in the Antilles in the Caribbean, which at the time was a British Colony. Although it is true that the drink is quite common in that part of the world, it is most likely that sangria came from Spain.
The beauty of the basic Sangria recipe is that it is as delicious as it is flexible. I like to vary the fruits I use, or even garnish it with strawberries, which are not in the actual recipe. This drink only gets better as you add your favourite fruits and spices!
1 litre of red wine
3 peaches
½ glass of lemon juice
50g of sugar
1 glass of fresh orange juice
1 spiral of lemon peel
1. Peel the peaches, slice in half and then remove the core. Cut into fine slices.
2. Peel the oranges and slice thinly. Do the same with the lemon.
3. Place the fruit slices in a container with the sugar and brandy. Allow this mixture to marinate for up to 3 hours.
4. Put the mixture into a large pitcher. Then add the red wine, orange and lemon juice.
5. Add the lemon peel spiral to the pitcher and leave cooling in the refrigerator.
6. Serve the drink very cold with ice.
Makes: 1 pitcher of sangria

A couple of years ago, I was stranded at a Kentucky airport for 12 hours. I was on my way from Miami to New York, and a storm forced our plane to land in rather a hurry. I was left feeling a little uneasy when I got off and decided to visit the nearest bar for a drink. The bartender recommended a typical Southern cocktail to stabilize my emotions: the Mint Julep. It is probably one of the simplest drinks I have ever tried, and also one of the best.
A mint julep is made with four ingredients: mint leaf, bourbon, syrup or sugar, and water. Traditionally spearmint is the mint of choice used in Southern states, Kentucky in particular. Apparently the secret to a good mint julep is to use loads of spearmint. The flavour is so good that it makes me think that I should also try it in my mojitos.
The origins of the Mint Julep are somewhat of a mystery. The first time its name appeared in writing was in 1803, in a book published by John Davis in London. It was described as ""a dram of spirituous liquor that has mint steeped in it, taken by Virginians of a morning." It is suggested it was first concocted in Kentucky. Henry Clay, State Senator, then took the recipe to the Round Robin Bar in the famous Willard Hotel in Washington while he was in office. These days, it is the official drink at the world famous Kentucky Derby track.
The most important ingredient in a mint julep is bourbon. The name of the spirit derives from its historical association with an area known as Old Bourbon, around what is now Bourbon County. It has been produced since the 18th century.
I have never actually been in Kentucky, except for its airport. I don't know if I will ever return, but my couple of hours there were enough to give me a good memory of the place and a great cocktail to share with you.
• leaves from 4-5 spearmint sprigs
• 2 sugar cubes or 1.5 cl simple syrup
• 7.5 cl bourbon
• mint sprig for garnish
1. Put the spearmint and simple syrup or sugar into a julep cup, Collin's glass or double old-fashioned glass.
2. Mix well to dissolve the sugar and to release the oil and aroma from the mint.
3. Add the bourbon.
4. Fill with crushed ice and stir well until the glass becomes frosty.
5. Garnish with the mint sprig.
Serves: 1 cocktail

Englishmen and Frenchmen

tagged as: combinatorics math
A reader of our combinatorics books emailed us recently about a group of problems in the fifth edition (1901) of Whitworth's "Choice and Chance". The first of these problems (Problem 786 on pg 276) is as follows: Six Englishmen and six Frenchmen stand in a row so that every man has a compatriot next to him. Show that the number of possible arrangements is 34.
This problem can be solved using the methods outlined in our book Combinatorics II Problems and Solutions: Counting Patterns.
The automaton for this problem is
where S is the start state, E1 represents the start of a group of Englishmen, F1 represents the start of a group of Frenchmen. E2 and F2 represent subsequent Englishmen and Frenchmen in a group. The end states are E2 and F2. From this automaton we can construct an adjacency matrix, with \(x =\) E and \(y =\) F, which is:
\[\mathbf{A}=\begin{bmatrix} 0 & x & 0 & y & 0\\ 0 & 0 & x & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & x & y & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & y\\ 0 & x & 0 & 0 & y \end{bmatrix}\]
where the rows and columns consecutively show transitions to states S, E1, E2, F1, and F2. Defining matrix B as
\[\mathbf{B}=(\mathbf{I}-\mathbf{A})^{-1}\]
then the generating function we want is a sum of two matrix elements of B
\[g(x,y)=\mathbf{B}_{13}+\mathbf{B}_{15}\]
where \(\mathbf{B}_{13}\) represents starting at S and ending at E2, and \(\mathbf{B}_{15}\) represents starting at S and ending at F2.
The generating function works out to be
\[g(x,y)=\frac{2x^2y^2-x^2y-xy^2+x^2+y^2}{1-x^2y^2+xy-x-y}\]
A Taylor series expansion will give you the answer for this problem and the next three problems (Problems 786-789). It will actually give you the answer to any problem involving \(n\) Englishmen and \(m\) Frenchmen. The answer is the coefficient of \(x^ny^m\) in the expansion. The coefficient of \(x^6y^6\) is \(34\), which is the answer to Problem 786. The coefficient of \(x^7y^7\) is \(84\), which is the answer to Problem 787. The coefficient of \(x^8y^8\) is \(208\), which is the answer to Problem 788, and the coefficient of \(x^8y^7\) is \(129\), which is the answer to Problem 789.
What we've just shown is by far the easiest way to solve the problem. You can also solve it by combinatorial reasoning. Let's say we have \(n\) Englishmen and \(m\) Frenchmen. An acceptable arrangement will consist of \(k\) groups of Englishmen, where each group has at least two members, surrounded by either \(k-1\), \(k\), or \(k+1\) groups of Frenchmen that have at least two members each. Let \(\Box\) represent a group of Englishmen and \(\triangle\) represent a group of Frenchmen then for \(k=3\) the acceptable arrangements are
\[\begin{matrix} \Box & \triangle & \Box & \triangle & \Box & &\\ \triangle & \Box & \triangle & \Box & \triangle & \Box &\\ \Box & \triangle & \Box & \triangle & \Box & \triangle &\\ \triangle & \Box & \triangle & \Box & \triangle & \Box & \triangle \end{matrix}\]
The number of ways to divide a group of \(n\) objects into \(k\) groups is
\[\binom{n+k-1}{k-1}\]
If each of the \(k\) groups has to have at least two objects in it then you subtract \(2k\) from \(n\). The number of ways to divide a group of \(n\) objects into \(k\) groups with at least two objects in each group is then
\[\binom{n-k-1}{k-1}\]
Using this expression for partitioning the Englishmen and the corresponding expression for partitioning the Frenchmen, you get the following formula for arranging \(n\) Englishmen and \(m\) Frenchmen such that each has at least one compatriot next to him.
\[a(n,m)=\sum_{k}\binom{n-k-1}{k-1}\left[\binom{m-k}{k-2}+2\binom{m-k-1}{k-1}+\binom{m-k-2}{k}\right]\]
If you do the calculation you will find that \(a(n,m)\) is equal to the coefficient of \(x^ny^m\) in the Taylor series expansion of \(g(x,y)\).


Foundation leaders care about making the most effective use of always limited resources. But finding the best evaluation method is challenging, according to a recent survey conducted by the Center on Effective Philanthropy.
The survey was distributed to CEOs of 537 foundations that make grants of at least $5 million a year. The survey doesn't state whether these were all private foundations or whether any community foundations were included, but the results certainly match the goals of the Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham — to drive positive change and achieve measurable results.
Despite these challenges, the report showed that foundation CEOs continue to be committed to seeking the most effective ways to evaluate what they do. We share that commitment as we work with partners to improve the life of our region. Review the current Results Framework for a look at the four key Results and the strategies we are pursuing to reach them.

Today's blog is jointly written by guest blogger Peter Kritsch, Biotechnology and Biology Teacher at Oregon High School and contributor Barbara Bielec. K-12 Program Director at the BTC Institute.
The BTC Institute has offered two graduate-level courses for high school teachers for many summers. Biotechnology: The Basics and Biotechnology: Beyond the Basics have become very popular and are also drawing the interest of middle school teachers. So, this June we piloted a new 3-day course designed specifically for them. Representing different schools and districts, eight teachers learned how to extract DNA from strawberries, pour and run agarose gels, identify a taste gene, and received information on lots of resources to use with their students.
This [course] is such a gift to teachers! Many times we aren't treated as professionals so it was nice to be treated as a professional without a high personal cost. I love how the course is so practical. Many courses are only in theory and no application. I can take so many useful ideas with me.
We have lots of ways of celebrating science. This week was Nobel Prize week in which the hard work of many scientists was celebrated with awards of prestigious prizes and news stories around the world. Our cartoon lab, kindly provided by scientist, Ed Himelblau, celebrates all of the little things that go into the daily pursuit of science.
In Wisconsin, the Wisconsin Science Festival: Curiosity Unleashed is a celebration of science that has become an annual event for our family. The hands-on experience of designing vehicles to a race across and obstacle course, shooting air-propelled paper rockets at the moon, holding a tomato horn worm in your hand and watching its pulse, and exploring the principle of viscosity through the intense study of chocolate are big hits for us. We can explore rocks, water, bugs, bubbles, and in the process experience some of the "oh wow" factor that got me interested in science to begin with.
All over the state from October 22–25, 2015, people are bound to find a free activity that interests them–from learning about the history of the Wisconsin agriculture from local writer Jerry Apps to learning about the science of popular video games like Call of Duty and X-Men Origins: Wolverine, which are made right here in Wisconsin. There are art and science programs, theater programs, programs for the nature-lover, hands-on scientific exploration, and even Halloween-themed cave exploration. There are programs geared for specifically adults, and programs just for children. There is something for everyone.
The Wisconsin Science Festival is a celebration of our innate spirit of exploration– of our natural curiosity–our ability to look at the world ask questions and figure out how to answer them. You can dive in completely and lose yourself in science, and it is so much fun.
Have you ever attended a community celebration of science? What was your favorite activity?
The Wisconsin Science Festival is a state-wide event produced by the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation, The Unversity of Wisconsin, and the Morgridge Institute for Research. It is completely funded by businesses and private donors in Wisconsin, including Promega.

These product keys will not work with Office 2010. Most counterfeit software is sold online, especially on auction sites and on sites claiming to offer software at a great discount. It is of a great advantage to users because it does not contain unnecessary toolbars. Oftentimes victims of piracy are unaware that they have purchased counterfeit software until it is too late.
Because Microsoft Office 2007 Full version has added many fabulous features that fulfill the requirements of the user, It does not matter from which field they belong to.
