The Businesses Leading Britain 1,000 (BLB1000), which Deloitte has identified as the fastest-growing medium-sized businesses in the UK, are essential to the economic recovery of the UK. In the past three years, the BLB1000 not only generated more than 9% of the UK GDP in revenues, they also were responsible for almost half of the total increase in UK headcount.
Big Four firm Deloitte recently released its 'Businesses Leading Britain 2014' report, part of UK Futures, in which it provides insights into the 1,000 fastest-growing medium-sized businesses (MSBs) with annual revenues between £30 million and £1 billion in the UK. For this report, the consulting firm looked at revenue and employment figures of the past three years.
Deloitte's figures show that these Businesses Leading Britain 1,000 (BLB1000) are making significant contributions to the UK economy. In 2013, the combined revenue of these BLB1000 totalled £158 billion, which is 9.2% of the total UK GDP. Over the past three years, these businesses have managed to increase their revenues by £30 billion.
According to the firm, the importance of the BLB1000 is also evident in the jobs market, as the BLB1000 managed to increase their headcount in every region. The highest increase in headcount is found in London, where over 35,000 people were hired between 2011 and 2013, followed by South East, with more than 27,000, and East of England, almost 24,000. When looking at percentages, the North East is leading the pack, with an increase of 127% in headcount, followed by the East Midlands and Wales, with both increases of around 50%. The BLB1000 also managed to grow in the East of England, where the regional employee number fell by around 90,000, with an increase of almost 24,000. In total, the BLB1000 increased their headcount by 182,000 between 2011 and 2013, which is close to half the increase in total UK headcount in the same period, stating the importance of these businesses for the UK economy.
Recently, BDO also released a research into the important role of mid-sized businesses for the UK economy, and showed that the mid-sized businesses in the UK are responsible for 25% of all private sector employment.


Cramp – from the World Cup to Wimbledon…. but why me?
After only 42 miles of a cycling sportive, the Virgin Cyclone, last Saturday in Northumberland, it hit me! A severe pain in my right hamstring, I looked down expecting to see that another cyclist, with the sleight of hand of that of a world renowned illusionist, had fitted a vice around my thigh…. but no…. I had cramp ……and it was agony!!!
Amusingly, I had already half written this blog on "cramp" or as it's known within sports medicine circles,"EAMC" (Exercise Associated Muscle Cramping). The high number of professional footballers currently applying their trade on the premier stage of the FIFA World Cup in Brasil being felled with cramp triggered my thoughts to write this blog.
Cramp can be recognised by acute pain, stiffness, knotting or even a visible bulging of a muscle with soreness that can remain for a number of days. It isn't however unusual that once initial symptoms ease the athlete can continue to participate with little if any effect upon performance.
EAMC occurs most commonly in muscles that span two joints, e.g hamstring, calves and quadriceps. It's thought that the large range of movement and number of overlapping muscle fibres make them more susceptible to cramp, which usually happens when the muscle is in it's shortened position.
The cramp is an intense active contraction of muscle fibres. Studies have suggested that 18% or marathon runners and 70% of male cyclists during a 100 mile ride will suffer the condition. Despite it being very common the cause is still unknown.
Most people if asked what causes cramp will suggest that dehydration is the cause and drinking plenty of fluid and eating bananas will prevent the problem from occurring. Unfortunately it isn't that simple!
Cramps can be related to dehydration and low sodium levels (hyponatraemia) from sweating but this isn't always the cause. Musicians suffering cramp in their hands don't tend to have sweated excessively before it occurred. Studies assessing the hydration status and electrolyte (salts) levels in athletes have also been unable to confirm a link between dehydration, abnormal salt levels and cramp.
Another "salt" blamed to cause cramp is potassium. Potassium content of bananas is high which one reason people are encouraged to eat them during exercise. Indeed low potassium levels can cause cramping of skeletal muscles but the potassium levels need to be very low for cramp to occur. In fact such low levels are usually a result of medical problems such as kidney disorders or due to a side effect of medication, such situations may result in such a significant drop in potassium that other symptoms are likely to be present and exercise would therefore not be possible anyway to result in exercise induced cramp.
Low magnesium levels have been thought to cause cramp but there is currently a lack of strong evidence to confirm this link.
Cramp has been a reported side effect of statins (which lower cholesterol), blood pressure lowering medication and the oral contraceptive pill as well as alcohol.
More recently a neuromuscular component causing cramp has been proposed. It is thought that when a muscle is fatigued, the normal muscle stimulatory and inhibitory impulses which occur in a healthy contracting muscle become disorganised and cramp ensues.
Another thought is that a lack of "fuel" for muscle contraction to occur normally may explain why cramp occurs. It is therefore important that glycogen stores (fuel) are kept at adequate levels by ensuring adequate calories are ingested prior to exercise.
contraction of the triceps muscle should be carried out. Stretching reduces the amount of muscle fibres overlapping and contraction of the "opposite" muscle, sends an inhibitory signal to the cramping muscle telling it to relax.
Stretching and contracting as described, should be continued for about 30-60 seconds after the cramp has eased to prevent it from recurring. It isn't known if massage helps to prevent cramp but it may ease the amount of pain experienced and could help removal of chemicals from building up from muscle cells.
As no one universal cause of EAMC is known, a preventative approach covering as many of the possible causes as possible is advised.
It is certainly good practice to maintain hydration regardless or not if it reduces the risk of camp. "Plain" water alone may actually result in dilution of body salts and result in low sodium levels thus maintaining hydration with electrolyte containing drinks, as are widely available, would be advised. The volume of sweat as well as its salt concentration differs between individuals but techniques and tests are available through Sports Medicine NE for these levels to be measured and individualised hydration schedules to be planned.
Endurance training to levels in which fatigue is experienced will allow the risk of fatigue to be minimised once muscles adapt, making cramp less likely to occur during competition. A form of training, which is thought to be of benefit is plyometric exercises also known as "jump training." Here muscles are worked explosively with maximum forces being applied in very short periods of time. Such training is available under the supervision of sport scientists and physiotherapists at Sports Medicine NE http://www.sportsmedicinene.co.uk/.
A balanced diet is essential for optimal performance and to ensure there are no dietary inadequacies which may result in cramp due to sub-optimal glycogen stores as described above. Appropriate food intake can prevent low salt levels. A sports nutritionists, as available at Sports Medicine NE can be extremely useful in advising upon nutrition for professional and amateur athletes.
During my time working in professional sport I have prescribed Quinine in tablet form or by advising the consumption of "tonic water" which contains quinine prior to activity. Little evidence exists for the use of quinine to prevent cramps but anecdotally it has been found to help. Any such medications should only be used after consultation with a sports medicine doctor or your own GP.
If the preventative suggestions above fail to prevent cramp from occurring then other more bizarre suggestions have been made to prevent or treat cramp such as eating mustard. However, last Saturday, I would have willingly started drinking pickle juice if would have taken my cramp away!

March 30, 2018, Worcester MA – A few days ago I learned of the highly controversial writings of a local Holy Cross professor, Tat-siong Benny Liew, that cast doubts on the male sexuality of Jesus Christ based on Professor Liew's seriously flawed analysis of some texts of the Gospel of St. John. I am deeply troubled and concerned to hear that someone who holds an endowed chair in New Testament studies at the College of the Holy Cross has authored such highly offensive and blasphemous notions. Such positions have no place in the biblical scholarship of a professor who teaches at a Catholic college and who, as such, should be supportive of the college's Catholic identity and mission.

"In order to process the millions of applications from illegal immigrants, the Obama administration will have to divert funding and other resources from processing legal immigration applications," Smith said in a statement responding to the new DHS guidelines. "This will lead to a backlog for legal immigrants who followed the rules, while allowing lawbreakers to skip to the front of the line."
What happened to illegals must pay a "stiff penalty" and "go to the back of the line?"
A: I think that if they are illegal, then they should not be able to work in this country. That is part of the principle of comprehensive reform, which we're going to crack down on employers who are hiring them and taking advantage of them. But I also want to give them a pathway, so that they can earn citizenship, earn a legal status, start learning English, pay a significant fine, and go to the back of the line.
What we have to do is create a comprehensive solution to the problem. As president I will make sure that we finally have the kind of border security that we need. Employers have to be held accountable. When we do those things, we can take the illegal aliens who are here, get them out of the shadows, make sure that they are subject to a stiff penalty, make sure that they're learning English and go to the back of the line so they're not getting an advantage over people who came here legally.
I have NEVER stated anything even remotely resembling this nonsense, and you know it. In fact, I have stated on numerous occasions, if I were a legal immigrant, I would be livid. My ex was one of the law-abiding immigrants who jumped through all of the required hoops. Understandably, his disdain for illegals is 10 times mine. I respect those who play by the rules. If you can prove otherwise, please do.
Because people that broke the law are prioritized instead. Why would any legal immigrant be happy if he has to wait after the government is done taking care of criminals? I can't believe you are not able to even imagine an answer for the question you posted.
Yes, the administrations have failed with immigration. However, it is NOT the reform that YOU want that needs fixing. We need to close our borders and remove EVERY illegal in our country (and that means YOU, too!). I don't care if you arrived here at one day old, or one year old or 25 years old. If you are here illegally then you should NOT BE HERE.
Why do you assume that the US needs Mexico's poor people? We are two separate countries with our own needs. We don't need to open the border or do away with lines. You want to come to the United States? Do it legally. There are reasons for our immigration laws and we are now seeing the results of ignoring these laws for decades.
Putting illegals before those wanting to come here legally is wrong on so many levels.
Of course, we cannot expect illegal alien sympathizers to understand such a simple concept.
Yes, the administrations have failed with immigration. However, it is NOT the reform that YOU want that needs fixing.
Past administrations failed to enforce the laws. Enter the Obama administration who gave more freedom for illegals to ignore our laws. Next step of this administration: giving illegals the same rights as citizens at the demand of illegals and sympathizers. Further to that the administration continued to bend over to the demands of illegals by creating "laws" for what has become a "protected society" who are perceived by this administration as "victims" and "Americans", not law breakers. Then to top it off this administration creates verbal "laws" and gives orders to ICE agents and border patrol to back off or are penalized to the extent of possibly losing their job, as if the ICE agents and border patrol were the criminals. Law enforcement and citizens that are anti-illegal are now the criminals.
So as a result, illegals think they have the right to demand the re-write, enforcement, creation of "laws" to suit their cause and that's because we, the US, owes them and must make restitution for the hardships they experienced as illegals. All crimes are to be forgiven because the "devil" (the US) made them do it. And because they were suppressed and denied they weren't able to pursue the opportunities that citizens have, so government will provide the tools and rights to achieve those opportunities to "succeed" because apparently there is a well of scholars waiting to bust out and rise to the top and will make a huge economic contribution and..........and.........be a major source that will help put the economy on track.
Obama seems to think this is his kingdom and can run it the way he wants to, and sad to say, he has been allowed to. And when he has to step down from his throne he and his children will be far removed from the mess he has/is creating for everyone else. As much as Obama wants to "spread the wealth" (the money of citizens) and believes in "equality", he is a millionaire, and will become considerably more rich after he is out of office doing his speaking engagements, and I don't think he plans on spreading his wealth around any time in the future.

Roundup: Bengals sign G John Miller for three years
Herbie Teope
After inconsistent play on the offensive line in 2018, the Cincinnati Bengals shored up the unit with an interior player.
The Bengals have signed guard John Miller to a three-year, $16.5 million deal, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported. The team later made the news official.
The 6-foot-3, 215-pound Miller spent the past four seasons with the Buffalo Bills, starting in 47 games at right guard. The Bengals likely view Miller as an upgrade over Alex Redmond, who drew 15 starts at right guard in 2018.
Miller represents the second move in free agency that the Bengals made for the front five. Earlier in the week, the team re-signed right tackle Bobby Hart to a three-year deal.
Consistency on the offensive line is needed for the 2019 season when considering Bengals signal-callers Andy Dalton and Jeff Driskel were sacked a combined 37 times in 2018.
Here are other transactions we're monitoring Friday:
Standout nickelback Bryce Callahan isn't going back to the Bears but he is reuniting with Vic Fangio as he is signing with the Denver Broncos, NFL Network's James Palmer reported. ESPN first reported the news. Callahan, a four-year vet with the Bears, had his best season to date last year when he posted career-highs of 45 tackles, two sacks, two interceptions and six passes defended. Rapoport reported that the deal is for three years, $21 million with $10 million guaranteed. The team later announced the signing.
The Broncos are also re-signing tight end Jeff Heuerman to a two-year deal worth up to $9 million, NFL Network Insider Rapoport reported, per a source.
All-Pro and Pro Bowl special teamer Adrian Phillips has re-signed with the Los Angeles Chargers on a one-year deal, the team announced Friday. Phillips, a safety, showcased his versatility last year as a safety/linebacker with career-highs of 77 tackles and 12 passes defended. He also tallied an NFL-high 19 special teams tackles.
The Baltimore Ravens announced they have come to terms with former Pro Bowl special teamer and defensive back Justin Bethel on a two-year contract. Bethel played six seasons with Arizona, going to three straight Pro Bowls for his special teams prowess from 2013-2015.
The New York Jetsbrought back kicker Chandler Catanzaro to replace Jason Myers, who made the Pro Bowl last season. Catanzaro, who spent the 2018 season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers, played for the Jets in 2017.
The Houston Texans signed cornerback Briean Boddy-Calhoun to a one-year deal, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported. Boddy-Calhoun started 22 games over the past three seasons for the Browns. The team confirmed the signing.
The Oakland Raiders announced that they have signed unrestricted free agent wide receiver J.J. Nelson. Nelson spent the last four seasons with the Arizona Cardinals, recording 81 receptions for 1,439 yards in 56 career games. Oakland also announced the signing of defensive end Josh Mauro, who played last season for the Giants, tallying 28 tackles in four starts over 12 games. In addition, the Raiders announced two re-signings: exclusive rights free agent linebacker Jason Cabinda (three starts, 21 tackles) and unrestricted free agent guard Chaz Green (one start).
Defensive end Adrian Clayborn posted on his Twitter account that he's been released by the Patriots. He played one season in New England following three with the Falcons.
The Chicago Bearsannounced the signing of receiver/kick returner Marvin Hall to a one-year contract on Friday. Hall played with the Falcons the last two seasons and averaged 23.6 yards per kickoff return in 2018 over 26 returns. Hall is regarded as one of the NFL's fastest players.
The San Francisco 49ers released defensive lineman Cassius Marsh, the team announced Friday. Marsh had three starts and 5.5 sacks in 16 games last season.
The Kansas City Chiefs will host former Bengals first-round pick Darqueze Dennard, as Rapoport reported the cornerback will take a free-agent visit.
The Tennessee Titansannounced they are releasing guard Josh Kline, who started 46 games for over the past three seasons.
The Jacksonville Jaguarsannounced the signing of tight end Geoff Swaim, who spent four seasons with the Dallas Cowboys.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed offensive lineman Earl Watford, with NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reporting it's a one-year deal for the former Cardinals and Browns player.

Middle Tennessee Soccer is nearing its end this season, and for some, it's the end of a career.
Angie Lai is one of four seniors leaving the Blue Raiders. Lai, originally from San Diego, viewed her arrival to MTSU as a fresh, exciting new start in her adult and college life.
Lai had an immediate impact in her Blue Raider career. She logged nearly 700 minutes of play and tallied two goals in her freshman campaign. Since then, she has started every game she dressed for with the exception of two matchups in her sophomore season. Her sophomore season, however, was her best statistically. In the 2014 season, Lai scored four goals along with three assists.
Lai has had many competitive and memorable games during her tenure at MT, but she didn't hesitate to state her favorite moment of her career.
Lai has had her best game of the 2016 season in MTSU's most recent battle against Marshall. She played all 90 minutes, finding the back of the net once while contributing an assist in the 2-0 Blue Raider victory.
Lai, a Business major, says she is laid back, easy-going and funny. She is always looking to have the best time and enjoy every minute.
This is part two of the four-part Soccer Senior Spotlight Series. Stay tuned to Sidelines for part two which will release tomorrow.

Buddhist practice is not about forcing ourselves to be natural. It is about being ourselves. When we take the vows of refuge, we are also pledging to find the refuge that exists within our own lives. This taking of refuge is not some kind of evasion or escape, but is the planting of our "selves" deeply in the nature of what surrounds us. We lodge ourselves in the deep waves and in the shallow pools, in the crests and depressions of our lives. Sometimes, even wreckage can make a temporary resting place.

Carnival Offers a Day's Vacation to Houston Offices - for 100 people!!
MIAMI (May 8, 2014) –Carnival Cruise Lines, Texas' largest cruise operator, and CBS Radio Houston are searching for the most spirited office in Houston for the chance to win the Ultimate Summer Office Party – a day of vacation-inspired fun for up to 100 people aboard one of Carnival's Galveston-based cruise ships.
Through a fun and easy photo contest conducted by Carnival and four leading Houston radio stations, those working for local companies in the greater Houston area can enter by submitting a new "vacation-ready" photo with their colleagues until May 23, 2014.
The grand prize winner will be announced the week of May 26. The winning submission will receive the Ultimate Summer Office Party for up to 100 people aboard one of Carnival's ships on a turnaround day at the Port of Galveston. It will be a day that's all play and no work for guests on board who can ride the waterslide, enjoy the pools and open decks, feast on a variety of delicious foods and cocktails with their colleagues.
Carnival pioneered year-round cruising from Galveston, Texas and currently operates two Galveston-based ships carrying more than 450,000 passengers annually – more than any other cruise operator. Carnival Magic offers seven-day Caribbean cruises and Carnival Triumph features four- and five-day departures to Mexico. The line will expand its operations in Galveston next year when Carnival Freedom launches seven-day sailings to the Caribbean in February 2015, marking the first time that a cruise line has deployed three year-round ships in Texas.
These ships feature a wide variety of innovations that are part of the line's Fun Ship 2.0 product enhancement program, including the Caribbean-themed RedFrog Pub, Guy's Burger Joint developed in tandem with Food Network star Guy Fieri, and the Punchliner Comedy Club presented by George Lopez, along with spectacular water slides, miniature golf courses and other exciting top-deck attractions (features vary by ship).
Royal Caribbean said today that beginning with the 2015-2016 season, the 70,000-ton Legend of the Seas would be homeported at Singapore during the winters and at Brisbane in the winters (summer there).
Until now, the Carnival brand has offered a similar type of product in Australia to what they have in North America: round trip itineraries in a length to fit vacation length of the market.
Now as it becomes necessary to move ships around, they are going to try the Carnival style of onboard product with longer fly/cruise programs - a type of cruise that, in North America, appeals primarily to the line's most ardent fans.
Carnival Cruise Lines has announced its latest Australian ship Carnival Legend will sail the warm waters of the Pacific to Hawaii next year, while Carnival Spirit will make the cruise line's first ever visit to Asia on an exotic voyage from Sydney to Singapore.
The inaugural fly-cruise itineraries will give Australians an exciting new way to visit two popular holiday destinations, while enjoying all the fun of a Carnival cruise on the way.
Fares start from $1049* per person quad share for Carnival Spirit's 15-day Sydney to Singapore cruise departing August 1, 2015 and including visits to Lombok and Bali in Indonesia and Brisbane, the Whitsundays and Darwin. Meanwhile, holidaymakers keen to fly to Singapore and sail home can choose the ship's 15-day cruise from Singapore to Sydney, departing August 30th, 2015 and also priced from $1049* per person quad share.
The new cruises will give Queenslanders their first chance to experience Carnival Spirit sailing from Brisbane, with the cruise line offering a 13-day sailing from Brisbane to Singapore on August 3 as well as the return voyage departing Singapore on August 30th, with fares from $1049* per person quad share.
Australians will also be able take in all the onboard entertainment and excitement of the cruise line's latest ship, Carnival Legend, as she sails across the Pacific to Hawaii in April next year. Cruising from Sydney on April 20, the 18-day cruise will visit Fiji and beautiful Bora Bora, Moorea and Papeete in Tahiti before heading to Honolulu. Fares start from $1329* per person quad share.
The cruise line is also offering the chance to enjoy a spring sailing from Honolulu to Sydney via Tahiti and Fiji in September 2015 as Carnival Legend returns to Australia for its second summer season. Fares on the 18-day cruise leaving Hawaii on September 26, 2015 start from $1399* per person quad share.
The Singapore cruises are now open for sale in Polar, with travel agents advised of the new Carnival Spirit itineraries, which will replace existing South Pacific schedules. Carnival Spirit's visit to Singapore will enable her to undergo a two-week refurbishment and upgrade before her return to Australian waters. The Hawaii cruises will go on sale May 7.
Carnival Cruise Lines Vice President Australia Jennifer Vandekreeke said the new cruises would give Australians a great way to travel to Asia and Hawaii.
"We're excited to be able to offer our guests these longer itineraries which are perfect for travellers looking to visit some wonderful tropical destinations which are a bit further from home, while enjoying all Carnival has to offer onboard," Ms Vandekreeke said.
As with all the cruises on Spirit and Legend departing from Australia, the cruises to and from Singapore and Honolulu will operate in Australian dollars and feature entertainment and food designed for Australian tastes, with no tipping required.
Both Carnival Legend and Carnival Spirit offer 12 decks packed with plenty of activities as well as relaxation options, including four restaurants, 16 bars and lounges, two theatres, a spa and gym and the wonderful Serenity child-free retreat.

AIDAluna completed a ten-day dry dock yesterday when it left the Blohm+Voss yard at Hamburg.
The dry dock was its regular maintenance visit, but it included one special project. The ship had the first portion of a comprehensive exhaust filter system installed.
CND subscribers also read about a disappointment ... work continuing on Costa Concordia ... and a glass act.
While the installation of the third sponson (the giant floats being attached to each side of Costa Concordia) since work resumed this spring doesn't have any particular significance, it did afford us an opportunity to appreciate the size of the project.
The top photo, taken yesterday, shows sponson S-11 is being held next to the side of the ship. The ship is to the right of the picture, and the crane barge is on the left. Note that the sponson is over six decks high and some of it is already under the water.
In the bottom photo, the sponson is in position for attachment to the ship last night. You can see the top of the sponson being held by the crane just under the surface of the water. The side of the ship is again visible to the right with the top five decks above the water. More than 120 divers are working in shifts 24-7 to complete the job as soon as possible.

Get the Look: Chanel's Yeti Suit Inspires a Topshop Coat
By Izzy Grinspan Dec 23, 2010, 2:30pm EST
Share All sharing options for: Get the Look: Chanel's Yeti Suit Inspires a Topshop Coat
Lately, the Topshop website has been greeting online visitors with a landing page starring two models in faux fur. One is wearing a fuzzy white jacket over a mohair sweater and scowling, but the other is working it like a pro—possibly thanks to her coat, a giant, shaggy, gray-and-brown number that resembles the top half of one of Chanel's infamous f/w 2011 fur suits.
Assuming we weren't the only people to do a double-take when we saw the coat, we began to investigate. And here the plot thickens. It's not listed on the site under "outerwear" or "tops." It does show up in the section for the Snow Queen collection, but it's not listed as one of the key pieces. And while you can find the same girl modeling it in the Snow Queen lookbook, the description of what she's wearing doesn't remotely correspond to her outfit.
When we called customer service, a lovely British woman informed us after much poking around online that the coat didn't seem to be available. Perhaps there was some oversight, she said, then ventured carefully, "It is quite a funky coat." Luckily, Topshop PR was able to solve the mystery. It's been produced, but it's not for sale just yet. Conclusion: Anyone who's been dreaming of swanning around town like a high-fashion abominable snowman will have to wait a couple weeks—that or buy some shag carpeting and assemble their own coat by hand.

Greg LeMond grills Lance Armstrong in Las Vegas
Questions over Lance's doping monitoring program
By cyclingnews.com
Don Catlin, Lance Armstrong and Taylor Phinney.
Jonathan Devich/Epicimages.us
Greg LeMond asked pointed questions about Armstrong's doping schedule and testing protocol for 2009.
Don Catlin, Lance Armstrong and Taylor Phinney in the Venetian Ballroom in Las Vegas Sept. 25. Greg LeMond id on the right in the front row.
A day after officially announcing his comeback to professional cycling, Lance Armstrong made an appearance at the Interbike trade show to give the cycling media and industry an opportunity to hear more details of his plans, including the special testing by Don Catlin of the UCLA anti-doping lab. Catlin joined him on stage along with American Taylor Phinney, who will lead Armstrong's new U23 developmental team.
Sitting in the front row, asking the first question was another Tour de France champion and outspoken critic of Armstrong, Greg LeMond. Cyclingnews was on hand to hear the plans and questioning from the industry, including LeMond.
LeMond led off the questioning with some pointed ones, all surrounding the theme of questioning the reasonability of the planned special testing of Armstrong by Don Catlin of the UCLA lab.
"I see Mr. Greg LeMond is here," Armstrong said somewhat wryly, but allowed him to have the first question.
LeMond pressed Armstrong and Catlin about the type of testing they had planned. He called into question the proposed testing, arguing that it is not comprehensive enough, such as using T/E ratios and tests for specific EPO drugs as opposed to measuring physiological variables such as power output changes over time. LeMond inferred that a spike in power output would better indicate the use of something illegal compared to trying to test for particular substances.
"That is not my area," responded Catlin. "He will be subject to testing by everyone under the sun. I think that will be all sorted out."
Catlin said that the actual program is still taking shape. "[Lance] has agreed to a couple of a few very fundamental points. One is his data, like T/E ratio and all that kind of stuff that a doping control is allowed to do will be on the web, so you can see it. 'Ah, your T/E ratio changed today, what happened?' Like to see if he is taking EPO – all the actors to make it a very public campaign.
"The other thing is samples will be kept frozen for a good long time so that if next year, five years a new test comes out and someone says Lance was doing something five years ago, we can pull out the samples and test them. This is longitudinal testing whereas the usual type of testing is taking a stop in time. This is where you connect the dots and is much more powerful kind of program to understand the physiology."
"That is all irrelevant," LeMond responded. "It doesn't matter about T/E ratio but watts and power output…"
"I don't think it is irrelevant," said Catlin. "I dare say you know this business pretty well! Come with your ideas of what we should do!"
At that point Armstrong stepped in tried to move things along. "You've done your job," Armstrong said to LeMond. "We are here to talk about a couple of things, like the Global Clinton campaign and my comeback to cycling. It's time for us, everybody in this room, to move on. We are not going to go there, I appreciate you being here – next question."

Flemish Brabant (/brəˈbænt/, US also /brəˈbɑːnt, ˈbrɑːbənt/; Dutch: Vlaams-Brabant [ˌvlaːmz ˈbraːbɑnt] ( listen);[a] French: Brabant flamand [bʁabɑ̃ flamɑ̃] ( listen)) is a province of Flanders, one of the three regions of Belgium. It borders on (clockwise from the North) the Belgian provinces of Antwerp, Limburg, Liège, Walloon Brabant, Hainaut and East Flanders. Flemish Brabant also surrounds the Brussels-Capital Region. Its capital is Leuven. It has an area of 2,118 km2 (818 sq mi) which is divided into two administrative districts (arrondissementen in Dutch) containing 65 municipalities. As of January 2019, Flemish Brabant has a population of 1,146,175.[2]
Flemish Brabant was created in 1995 by the splitting of the former province of Brabant into three parts: two new provinces, Flemish Brabant and Walloon Brabant; and the Brussels-Capital Region, which no longer belongs to any province. The split was made to accommodate the eventual division of Belgium in three regions (Flanders, Wallonia and the Brussels-Capital Region).
The province is made up of two arrondissements. The Halle-Vilvoorde Arrondissement has Brussels in its middle and is therefore mainly a residential area, even though it also has large industrial zones and contains Belgium's main airport. The other arrondissement is the Leuven Arrondissement, centered on Leuven. The province's products include Belgian beers.
The official language in Flemish Brabant is Dutch (as it is in the whole of Flanders), but a few municipalities are to a certain extent allowed to use French to communicate with their citizens; these are called the municipalities with language facilities. Other such special municipalities can be found along the border between Flanders and Wallonia, and between Wallonia and the German-speaking area of Belgium.

The Governor is the representative or "commissioner" of the Federal and the Flemish Government in Flemish Brabant. He is appointed by the Flemish Government, on the unanimous advice of the Federal Council of Ministers. From the creation of Flemish Brabant in 1995 as a result of the division of the Province of Brabant into Flemish and French speaking provinces until his retirement in 2020, the Governor was Lodewijk De Witte. He was succeeded by Jan Spooren.
The Governor is responsible for supervising the local authorities, ensuring that laws and decrees are observed, maintaining public order and security, and coordinating the response to a disaster which has occurred in his province. He also presides over the Deputation, however, he doesn't have the right to vote in the Deputation except in those cases where the Deputation exercises a judicial function.
Flemish Brabant is the only province that has a Deputy Governor as well. The Deputy Governor is appointed by the Flemish Government on the unanimous advice of the Federal Council of Ministers and must have a considerable knowledge of both the Dutch and the French language. He is responsible for ensuring that the language legislation is observed in the peripheral municipalities of Flemish Brabant.
The Provincial Council of Flemish Brabant consists of 72 members (84 members until 2012) elected for a term of office of 6 years. The last election was held on Sunday 14 October 2012. Seven political parties have seats in the Provincial Council:
New Flemish Alliance (N-VA): 19 seats
Christen-Democratisch en Vlaams (CD&V): 15 seats
Open Flemish Liberals and Democrats (Open Vld): 13 seats
Socialist Party – Different (sp.a): 8 seats
Green (Groen): 7 seats
Union of Francophones (UF): 5 seats
Flemish Interest (Vlaams Belang): 5 seats
The current President of the Provincial Council is An Hermans (CD&V). She is assisted by a Bureau which consists of two Vice-Presidents, four Secretaries, three Quaestors and the floor leaders of the fractions in the Provincial Council.
The governing majority in the Provincial Council for 2013–2018 is formed by CD&V, Open VLD, sp.a and Groen. These parties together have a majority of 43 out of 72 seats.
The Deputation is the executive organ responsible for the daily administration of the province. It consists of the Governor and six Deputies elected by the Provincial Council from among its midst. For the 2013–2018 legislative term, the Deputies are divided among the majority parties as follows: two for CD&V, two for Open Vld, one for sp.a and one for Groen.
The Gross domestic product (GDP) of the province was 49.8 billion € in 2018. GDP per capita adjusted for purchasing power was 38,600 € or 128% of the EU27 average in the same year.[4]
According to the International Social Survey Programme 2008: Religion III by the Association of Religion Data Archives,[5] 73.9% of Flemish Brabant's population identify themselves as Catholics, 23.1% as non-religious, 3% identify themselves in other religions.

As part of Canada's commitments under the Convention on Biological Diversity, we are proud to continue our collaborative efforts to help Canada meet the Biodiversity Goals and Targets by 2020. These 19 targets have helped guide conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. Today, we received the preliminary assessment of progress in meeting Canada's targets in preparation for reporting internationally later this year, and we discussed how FPT governments can cooperate to highlight successes and address challenges in advance of the 2020 deadline.
"Collaborate. Connect. Conserve. Lead." Parks for All offers concrete actions that aim to strengthen economies, engagement and support for the critical role that parks play for our health and well-being, and promotes parks as essential natural solutions to a sustainable future. The Action Plan is led by the Canadian Parks Council and the Canadian Parks and Recreation Association, in partnership with Indigenous Peoples and partners across Canada and was adopted by all provinces and territories, with the exception of Quebec.
Working together to conserve Canada's species at risk is important to all of us and supports Canada's second biodiversity target. Moving forward, we agreed to continue to advance progress in transforming species at risk conservation in Canada that will achieve multi-species and ecosystem benefits, without losing sight of single species recovery, by focusing our collective conservation efforts on priority places, species and threats. We agreed to a new set of principles to help guide collaborative implementation work; including the development of a set of shared priorities, when applicable. This deliberate focus on working together, supported by Canada's new Nature Fund, will enable significant, targeted investments and innovative partnerships to drive improved recovery and protection for a large number of species at risk throughout the country. We shared recent successes in multi-species, ecosystem-based conservation action planning and delivery to help inspire each of us to further advance our work in achieving our common goals for species at risk.
We also recognize that wildlife health is crucial in conserving biodiversity. As the emergence of various wildlife diseases continue to threaten Canadian species and declines in environmental conditions render species more vulnerable to existing pathogens, we agreed on a new approach to help us strengthen our work to improve wildlife health. We endorsed A Pan-Canadian Approach to Wildlife Health in Canada and we look forward to FPT governments coming together to implement its goals and objectives.
The Federal Budget 2018 announced $1.3 billion over five years to protect Canada's Natural Legacy - the biggest single investment in nature conservation in Canadian history. We, as FPT Ministers, look forward to working together with Canadians to make this a reality for Canada.
We plan to meet again in 2019 to continue our efforts.
i Due to the impending swearing in of a new government, Ontario officials participated in this meeting as observers and are not party to this Communiqué.
ii Although Québec shares a number of conservation issues and concerns with other governments, it does not adhere to the proposed FPT approaches or mechanisms related to the topics mentioned in this communiqué. Québec remains committed to achieving its own objectives in terms of protected areas, national parks, conservation of threatened and vulnerable species, and control of wildlife diseases and uses its own tools and existing bilateral agreements with the governments concerned to do so.

Yagbonwura calls for continuous peace in Gonjaland
The Yagbonwura, Sulemana Jakpa Tuntumba Bore Essa I, Overlord of Gonjaland, has stressed the need for continuous peace within his jurisdiction to ensure development.
He has, therefore, appealed to chiefs in Gonjaland to continue with their civic and traditional responsibilities as facilitators of peace by sensitising their people to live in harmony.
The Yagbonwura said this when he chaired a consultative peace forum at Damongo in the West Gonja District last Friday. It was organised by the Ghana Developing Communities Association (GDCA), a non-governmental organisation, with support from STAR-Ghana.
The forum brought together about 50 chiefs from the various royal gates within the Gonja Kingdom to discuss how to manage the expectations of the youth within their jurisdictions with regard to the verdict of the Supreme Court.
The Gonjas have a long cherished tradition of respecting and obeying the orders of their chiefs, hence the forum.
The Yagbonwura said: 'I stand for peace, and we need to maintain the peace of the land and not let anything divide us.'
Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP), Mr Ansah Dawuda, the West Gonja District Police Commander, said the security agencies in the district had mapped out strategies to protect people, vital installations and offices among other measures to maintain peace during and after the Supreme Court verdict.
Most Reverend Peter Paul Angkyier, the Bishop of the Damongo Diocese of the Catholic Church, urged all to restrain themselves, avoid provocative acts, and be ready to accept the verdict of the Supreme Court.
Mr Stanley Zakaria Mahama, the West Gonja District Director of the National Commission for Civic Education, called for tolerance among members of political parties.
Alhaji Abdulai Baba, a Board Member of GDCA and facilitator of the Dagbon Peace Initiative, appealed to the chiefs to continue to play leading roles as peace ambassadors in their traditional areas.
Some of the chiefs who contributed to the discussion underscored the importance of peace and pledged to continue to uphold peace in their traditional areas.

Janine Pommy Vega, née le  à Jersey City et décédée le  à , hameau près de Woodstock (New York) est une poétesse américaine, dont le nom reste associé au mouvement littéraire et artistique appelé « Beat Generation ».

Biographie

Janine Pommy Vega, née Telkowski-Pommy, d'ascendance polonaise et allemande, grandit à Union City, dans le New Jersey. À l'âge de seize ans, inspirée par le roman de Jack Kerouac, Sur la route, elle part pour Manhattan avec une amie Barbara prendre part au mouvement Beat. Elle rencontre Gregory Corso au Cedar Bar puis Allen Ginsberg et Peter Orlovsky avec lequel elle a une liaison. Elle trouve un emploi de serveuse au Café Bizarre.

Le mois de décembre 1962, elle rencontre son futur mari, l'artiste peintre péruvien Fernando Vega. Ils se marient en Israël, puis voyagent ensuite à travers l'Europe, à Paris et en Espagne. Après la mort par overdose de celui-ci à Ibiza en 1965, elle retourne à New York, puis en Californie. Son premier livre, Poems to Fernando est publié par City Lights en 1968. Au début des années 1970 Janine Pommy Vega vit comme une ermite, sur la Isla del Sol situé dans le Lac Titicaca à la frontière de la Bolivie et du Pérou. De cet exil volontaire sortirent, en 1974 Journal of a Hermit et en 1976, Morning Passage.

Dans les années qui suivent son retour aux États-Unis, Janine Pommy Vega publie plus d'une douzaine d'ouvrages, dont en 1997, Tracking the Serpent: Journeys to Four Continents, une autobiographie. Son dernier livre de poèmes est The Green Piano. New Poems en 2005.

Dans les années 1970, elle travaille comme éducatrice dans les écoles, initiant ses élèves aux arts, et, dans les prisons grâce à l'organisation « Incisions/Arts » qu'elle dirigeait. Elle faisait également partie du « Prison Writing Comittee » du Pen club. C'est dans ce domaine, une pionnière du mouvement pour les femmes : elle se dépense sans compter pour améliorer leurs vies et leurs conditions de détention. Elle a passé plus de 25 ans à aider les personnes derrière les barreaux.

Janine Pommy Vega a voyagé de part en part sur le continent américain, dans toute l'Europe et au Moyen-Orient ; la plupart du temps seule. Elle a des amis partout, les regardant tous avec le même naturel, avec amour et compassion.

Depuis 2006, elle vivait à Willow, un petit hameau près de Woodstock. Elle partagea ses onze dernières années avec le poète Andy Clausen, prenant soin de son jardin quand elle ne parcourait pas le monde pour y donner sa poésie engagée et magnétique. Janine Pommy Vega a continué d'écrire, de donner des lectures, et de combattre pour les droits de l'homme jusqu'à sa mort.

Hey guys! It's Shimmy Shimmer swatch time!!
Hope you're not tired of them yet, because I'm sure not.
Holy poop, have I got some good ones for you today. The first one in particular, ahhhh, just wait.
As I've said in my previous posts, Shimmer Polishes are very complex and full of so much fun glitter.
I've just died and gone to glitter heaven. For real. I don't even know what to say about this polish besides I lalalove it and want to put it over everything.
Another major, major winner. I could stare at the glitters for ages! The blues and purples are so nice, and then all the other colors... I just love how there are so many different glitters in each polish, they're so interesting and fun and sparkly. Again, I've got no more words. Just let the pictures do the talking.
This one isn't on my list of favorites due to me not being an orange fan, but despite that, it's still gorgeous! I really like the teeny tiny silver glitter, and the blues and pinks go nice with the overall orange tone. Orange fans should definitely check this one out.
Hehee I'm so pretty! ;) These glitters are awesome, some much colours in one bottle!

Selena Gomez Designed a Gorgeous Bikini For Her Friend's Swimwear Collection
5/2/2019 by Rania Aniftos
Jesse Grant/Getty Images for THR
Selena Gomez attends The Hollywood Reporter's Empowerment In Entertainment Event 2019 at Milk Studios on April 30, 2019 in Los Angeles.
Selena Gomez has dipped her toes in the swimwear world, revealing on Thursday (May 2) that she designed a bikini for her longtime friend Theresa Mingus' new swim line, Krahs.
The Selena combo, which features a top with a front clasp and a high-waisted bottom with a belt, has a particularly special meaning. "I did have a really good time designing," Gomez said in a Krahs video of her and Mingus. "It was fun. The design I did, one of them, it was the high-waisted one with the belt. I've had a kidney transplant and I like bathing suits that kind of cover where that's been and make me feel comfortable."
I wanted Selena to interview me because I know she's amazing at getting people to speak their truth!   What these videos don't show are the amount of times we had to stop because we were laughing too hard. Or because she asked a question that I wasn't sure I wanted to open up about. But the people who know you best, who have seen you when you've just wanted to hide, are the people who end up challenging you to be the most authentic version of yourself possible.   I'd rather talk about the times I've jumped into the pool wearing my shark onesie than the times I've felt defeated or insecure. It's easy to only show the good times than it is to be honest about the bad. Krahs is a manifestation of both. The lows taught me about gratitude and patience. The highs taught me to not take anything for granted. And having one of my best friends alongside me is the cherry on top of the perfect wave ;)
A post shared by KRAHS -- (@krahs) on Apr 30, 2019 at 6:00pm PDT
The bikini comes in red and black, with additional neon green and black-and-white shark patterned bathing suits in the collection, all priced between $40-$70. Gomez took to Instagram to share a stunning photo of her in the red set. "Every woman wants to feel sexy," Mingus said of her company's mission. "Every woman wants to feel confident and beautiful," Theresa said. "I definitely want to have a variety of different pieces so everyone can wear them."
See Gomez's post below.
