Seniors Drive Lake Orion Lax Turnaround
Brad Thomas and his coaching staff did their best last May to make practices fun. But that wasn't always easy with his Lake Orion boys lacrosse team heading toward the end of a second straight sub-.500 season.
A year later, everything has changed.
The Dragons are 14-1 and have clinched the Oakland Activities Association Red championship – and are the Applebee's Team of the Month for April after starting the season with 10 straight wins through April 30.
Lake Orion was 7-12 in 2014 and 5-14 last spring after starting 2-8 both of those seasons. But the Dragons showed signs of emerging near the end of 2015, winning three of their final six games. And five of their losses last season were by four goals or fewer.
"We have a lot of upperclassmen who have been up (on varsity) the last couple of years and experienced a lot of close losses," said Thomas, who is in his sixth season leading the program. "It would be a one or two-goal game, and we wouldn't make a play at the end.
"This year, we've had a lot of close games. But we've found ways to make plays, and that's been driven by the seniors. … Whether it's been locking in defensively, or scoring more goals on offense or finding a way to get a ground ball. And the younger guys have bought in and see how special we can be."
The turnaround has included first wins in program history over Birmingham, Clarkston, Troy Athens and Rochester Adams. Lake Orion is ranked No. 8 in Division 1, with its only loss by a goal to Division 2 No. 8 Orchard Lake St. Mary's on May 3.
That Birmingham win – 9-8 in overtime on April 15 – gave Thomas an idea that the just-miss experiences of the last two seasons might pay off. The Dragons have seven wins by four or fewer goals and two one-goal wins over their last four games, including a double-overtime edging of Bloomfield Hills.
Lake Orion has eight seniors, including four who have been on the varsity three seasons – goalie Zach Daining, defender Jack McClear, midfielder Cole Schaefer and attack Jake Chapie.
This senior class also is the first to play in the middle school program, and the community's 5-year-old youth program now starts at 9-and-under.
The team has worked to become part of its greater community as well, last season playing a "Lacrosse for a Cause" game that raised money for ALS of Michigan after the mother of a player died after suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease.
Two weeks ago, the team through fundraising and the dedication of its game against Oxford raised more than $6,000 for the Fallen and Wounded Solider Fund, a Bloomfield Hills-based effort that provides financial assistance to veterans and their families.
"They're just good people," Thomas said of his players, "just a great group of guys who work hard and are dedicated to being good to each other – a great example of what we want the program to be here."

Representative Council Approves Limited Regional Seeding in Girls Lacrosse at Fall Meeting
The addition of limited seeding at the Regional level of the Girls Lacrosse Tournament headlined actions taken by the Representative Council of the Michigan High School Athletic Association during its Fall Meeting on Dec. 2 in East Lansing.
Generally, the Council takes only a few actions during its Fall Meeting, with topics often introduced for additional consideration and action during its meetings in winter and spring. This Fall Meeting saw the Council take only three actions, with additional discussion centered on topics expected to receive more specific consideration at MHSAA sport committee meetings this winter and the Council's meetings in March and May.
The Council approved a Girls Lacrosse Committee proposal to seed the top two teams in every Regional, and place those top seeds on opposite sides of the bracket beginning with the 2023 season. The two teams to be seeded will be determined by using the MHSAA's Michigan Power Ratings (MPR) formula, which takes into account success and strength of schedule and is used currently to provide seeding information in boys lacrosse, girls and boys basketball, girls and boys soccer, and ice hockey. Only the top two teams in girls lacrosse will be seeded and separated; the other teams in each Regional will be placed on their brackets by random draw.
The Council also approved a Boys Lacrosse Committee recommendation that will allow athletes to participate in up to five quarters per day between teams at multiple levels – for example, varsity and junior varsity – also beginning with the 2023 season. For boys lacrosse multi-team tournaments, if two school teams (for example, the varsity and junior varsity) are at the same event, athletes may play in no more halves or quarters than what is being played by the school's highest-level team that day. (Example: if the varsity team is playing three 30-minute half games for a total of six halves, a player playing both varsity and JV on the same day can play in six total halves that day.) The "fifth quarter" rule, by allowing athletes to compete on two levels on the same day, is intended to help programs that are otherwise lacking enough participants to field teams at multiple levels.
Taking into account the wintery weather conditions experienced by athletes during the MHSAA alpine ski season, the Council approved a Sports Medicine Advisory Committee recommendation to adopt the "MHSAA Competition and Practice Guidelines for Cold Weather," which are specific to alpine skiing. The guidelines include a windchill chart and cold standards for ambient temperature. This proposal also was supported by the Ski Committee and will go into effect for the 2022-23 season.
Remaining discussions focused on results from this fall's Update Meeting survey completed by administrators during the MHSAA's annual presentations across the state. The Council considered survey data including on questions related to the out-of-season travel rule. The Council also discussed results of a fall survey completed by member school athletic directors and head varsity football coaches concerning ongoing conversations about scheduling and playoff format. Following the Football Committee meeting in January 2023, an ad hoc committee comprised of members of the MHSAA staff, Representative Council, Michigan Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association (MIAAA) and Michigan High School Football Coaches Association (MHSFCA) will be convened for further discussion on these topics, with their report to be provided to the Council during its March 2023 meeting.
The Fall Meeting saw the appointment of Westland John Glenn athletic director Jason Malloy for a first-two-year term to the 19-person Council, and the re-appointment of Bay City Western principal Judy Cox for a second two-year term. Malloy previously was appointed to finish a partial term as one of the two representatives of member junior high/middle schools.
The Council reelected Scott Grimes, superintendent for Grand Haven Area Public Schools, as its president; and Vic Michaels, director of physical education and athletics for the Archdiocese of Detroit, as secretary-treasurer. Brighton High School athletic director John Thompson was elected Council vice president.
The Representative Council is the legislative body of the MHSAA. All but five members are elected by member schools. Four members are appointed by the Council to facilitate representation of females and minorities, and the 19th position is occupied by the Superintendent of Public Instruction or designee.
The MHSAA is a private, not-for-profit corporation of voluntary membership by more than 1,500 public and private senior high schools and junior high/middle schools which exists to develop common rules for athletic eligibility and competition. No government funds or tax dollars support the MHSAA, which was the first such association nationally to not accept membership dues or tournament entry fees from schools. Member schools which enforce these rules are permitted to participate in MHSAA tournaments, which attract more than 1.3 million spectators each year.

The banana is an edible fruit, botanically a berry, produced by several kinds of large herbaceous flowering plants in the genus Musa. In some countries, bananas used for cooking may be called plantains. The fruit is variable in size, color and firmness, but is usually elongated and curved, with soft flesh rich in starch covered with a rind which may be green, yellow, red, purple, or brown when ripe. The fruits grow in clusters hanging from the top of the plant. Almost all modern edible parthenocarpic (seedless) bananas come from two wild species – Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. The scientific names of most cultivated bananas are Musa acuminata, Musa balbisiana, and Musa × paradisiaca for the hybrid Musa acuminata × M. balbisiana, depending on their genomic constitution. The old scientific name Musa sapientum is no longer used.
Musa species are native to tropical Indomalaya and Australia, and are likely to have been first domesticated in Papua New Guinea. They are grown in at least 107 countries, primarily for their fruit, and to a lesser extent to make fiber, banana wine and banana beer and as ornamental plants.

Between 23 and 30 November the operations team at ESOC will conduct manoeuvres to raise the pericentre of the Venus Express (VEX) orbit again, in an effort to keep the spacecraft in productive orbit around Venus.
These manoeuvres could be the last for VEX due to low propellant levels, but all being well, VEX will continue its valuable scientific observations into 2015. The question is: how much longer can the spacecraft operate?
Venus Express has been in a reduced science phase since its orbit was changed following the hugely successful aerobraking campaign during the summer of 2014. The mission, originally planned for two-plus-two (two years nominal operation with a two-year extension) years, has been successfully collecting critical science data from the 'Morning Star' for over eight years now.
"This has been a fantastic mission and a great achievement for science over the last eight years and Venus Express continues to return excellent scientific data," states Håkan Svedhem, Venus Express Project Scientist.
Due to a combination of effects from the gravity of Venus and our Sun, VEX's closest point of approach, the pericentre, is constantly descending closer to Venus. This 'decay' of the pericentre altitude would eventually damage the spacecraft (due to drag) if it is not raised away from the atmosphere.
The OCMs taking place now are using the spacecraft's thrusters to lift the satellite at controlled increments back to a safer orbit. Without them, the pericentre altitude falls around 3 to 5 km per day.
As a result of the successful aerobraking manoeuvres earlier this year, the nominal 24-hr orbital period has been reduced to just over 22 hrs. Given that the routine flight control procedures followed for the last eight years – science planning, observations, ground station passes, reaction wheel offloading – were designed for a 24-hr orbit, the change of orbital period by nearly two hours has affected many aspects of planning and operations for the flight control team.
"It's increasingly demanding to fly the spacecraft during this reduced science phase due to the changed orbit," says Adam Williams, acting Spacecraft Operations Manager of Venus Express at ESOC.
The OCMs scheduled for this month will correct the natural decay that has occurred since the PRM (pericentre raising manoeuvres) conducted in July, after the aerobraking activity.
"Aerobraking was very successful in July. It's a credit to the designers that we have such a robust spacecraft capable of these demanding manoeuvres, and to the operators that they have kept it working so well. The mission has continued for much longer than its planned nominal lifetime and will likely continue even further," explains Patrick Martin, Venus Express Mission Manager.
Adding to the challenge, the team won't know if each manoeuvre has been successful until the following day's communications pass. In one case, they will have to wait two days for their telemetry to return due to ground station availability constraints.
How much fuel do we have?
Everything now hangs on the amount of fuel and oxidiser on board the spacecraft.
It is calculated that there is around 3 kg of fuel and 5 kg of oxidiser remaining, although some of this may not be usable due to movement of propellant in the tanks. Estimates indicate around 1.4 kg of fuel and 2 kg of oxidiser are needed for the manoeuvres.
However, it's impossible to be certain just how much propellant is actually available and the mission's continuation into 2015 has been approved on the assumption that propellant remains available.
Whatever happens, once the fuel is exhausted, this hugely successful mission will come to a natural end.
The Venus Express mission has observed Venus for over eight years and returned startling and amazing data from Earth's nearest planetary neighbour. Observations have focused on the structure, dynamics, composition and chemistry of the dense atmosphere and overlying clouds. VEX also investigated the swirling vortex at the planet's south pole.
VEX discovered Venus' surprisingly cold region high in the planet's atmosphere, and the high-altitude ozone layer. The mission confirmed that Venus is losing water from its upper atmosphere and that it may have been much more humid and Earth-like.
Some observations of the surface terrain were possible with the Visible and Infrared Thermal Imaging Spectrometer (VIRTIS). The data provide the best evidence to date that Venus has been volcanically active in recent geological times. In the upper atmosphere, large variations of sulphur dioxide have been discovered.
Access more information on the discoveries of the mission here.
VEX continues going strong, generating valuable scientific data, and is expected to continue to do so in robust health into 2015. The satellite itself is in excellent condition, as are all its functional instruments.
"It is a bit sad to know that sooner or later the spacecraft will run out of propellant," says ESA's Andrea Accomazzo, Head of the Solar and Planetary Missions Division at ESOC and the first Venus Express Spacecraft Operations Manager.
"Venus Express is, after Rosetta and Mars Express, the most recently launched of ESA's interplanetary jewels. It was supposed to be a short mission, but the robustness of the spacecraft and the skills of our operations and flight dynamics teams have made it a much longer lasting, incredibly successful mission," says Paolo Ferri, Head of Mission Operations.

The History of Drunk Driving Laws
Staff October 26, 2013 The History of Drunk Driving Laws2013-11-05T17:42:48+00:00 No Comment
Alcohol and Driving, the combination was destined to cause trouble from the very beginning. Ever wonder who earned the first drunk driving arrest? On September 10, 1897, a young, London taxi driver, George Smith, was charged a 25 shilling fine (about $5) for drunkenly driving his vehicle into a building. Mr. Smith's mishap was the catalyst for establishing laws against drunk driving in the U.S., in the early 1900's. Laws against drunk driving have continued to evolve throughout the last 100 years and have greatly reduced accidents involving a drunk driver, but according to a Syracuse car accident lawyer, we are far from changing the way people drive, "Even though (states like) New York has tough laws to combat drunk driving, far too many drivers still get behind the wheel after they've had too much to drink." Legislation, law enforcement, and everyday people, affected by the irresponsible yet preventable actions of drunk driving, will not report that driving while intoxicated is under control until accidents, injuries, and deaths related to drunk driving cease.
The Early Years of Drunk Driving
According to the Library of Congress, in 1908, Henry Ford, wanting to make an automobile more accessible and affordable for the everyday person, introduced the infamous Model T. The first price tag was a hefty $850, but as more cars were manufactured, the Model T truly became an affordable car, costing $260. A couple years after Ford's introduction of one of America's top-selling vehicles, the first drunk driving laws were introduced in New York.
In 1910, the state of New York put a ban on drunk driving; simply stating that it was illegal for drivers to operate a vehicle while being intoxicated. States followed suit and adopted the same law. Once the laws were enacted, law officials and civilians, alike, hit a technical roadblock. There was no official way to define or measure an intoxicated individual. If a drunk driver was caught by an officer, who liked to have a stiff drink each evening, or caught by an officer, who was a teetotaler, the outcome would surely be different; based on a biased opinion rather than scientific proof.
People kept driving their new vehicles, some under the influence of alcohol, and there were little to no repercussions as official laws regarding the use of vehicles were not regulated or enacted. From 1910 to the beginning of the Prohibition in 1920, drunk driving was recognized as an issue, but while it was considered unlawful, there was little change in legislature until after the Prohibition.
A Post-Prohibition World
Americans were prohibited from drinking alcohol and the task of measuring a person's level of inebriation was put aside until the Prohibition ended in 1933 when Americans seemed to continue where they had left off years before. Three years after the end of the Prohibition, a biochemistry professor, Dr. Harger, introduced his balloon device, "The Drunkometer". The device, created to measure levels of intoxication through breath, was the first "practical" test to measure drunk drivers. Harger, continued to be a large presence in helping create drunk driving laws when he joined a committee of the National Safety Council that proposed a plan to legalize the use of evidence from chemical tests for intoxication and to set limits of BAC for drunk motorists, which later became included in drunk driving laws. Legal intoxication, on a national level, was finally determined to be a BAC of 0.15 or higher and 20 years later; a more accurate device called a "Breathalyzer" was created to measure BAC.
Cracking Down on Drunk Drivers
After legislation settled on a BAC, drunk drivers could finally be held accountable for driving while intoxicated. Legislative laws seemed to sit, stagnant, until a small group of mothers, mourning the loss of their children, presented the emotional picture of drunk driving accidents. MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) has been instrumental in making waves in Congress. The group of mothers, who had lost their children to a drunk driving incident, was fearless because they had nothing else to lose.
With MADD's influence and involvement, President Regan announced the inception of the Presidential Commission of Drunk Driving in 1982. In 1983, Congress passed numerous anti-drunk driving laws, and drunk driving was finally rearing its ugly head in public service announcements. A big feat for the organization was helping to pass the National Minimum Drinking Age Act in 1984 when the drinking age, nationwide, became 21.
Within the last 30 years, state laws slowly changed to lower the BAC from the long standing 0.15 to .10 to finally, in 2004, Congress passed a national law enforcing the legal limit of .08 or higher.
A Long Way to Go
Today, according to Governors Highway Safety Association, states continue to battle against drunk driving by enacting laws such as Zero Tolerance and Ignition Interlock systems. Unfortunately, drunk driving will continue to be a problem for years to come, but as long as Congress continues to view it as an ongoing problem, the number of drunk driving related accidents will continue to decrease each year. The key to eradicating drunk driving does not necessarily mean getting rid of alcohol, as historically, that has failed. However, strict laws, monitoring, enforcing, and education are some tools that are sure to help decrease the number of drunk drivers on our roadways. Help reduce the number of drunk driving related accidents; never get behind the wheel and drive. A night of fun can change your life forever.

Райхана бинт Зейд (; ум. ) — одна из жён пророка Мухаммада. Имеются сообщения и о том, что она была его наложницей.

Биография
Райхана бинт Зейд происходила из иудейского племени Курайза. Её первым мужем был некий Хакам. В  году после похода мусульманам против племени Курайза она попала в плен, после чего досталась пророку Мухаммаду. Он предложил Райхане принять ислам, однако она отказалась. Спустя некоторое время, она заявила о принятии ислама и после этого пророк Мухаммад освободил её. Согласно другой версии, передаваемой Ибн Са'дом, Райхана оставалась вплоть до своей смерти, по своему собственному выбору, наложницей Мухаммада, будучи, однако, мусульманкой.

Райхана была добродетельной и набожной женщиной. Она умерла раньше других жён пророка Мухаммада.

So, as some of you have noticed (Fur), I have a Boston countdown up now. Yes, we are going to Boston. Jarom is going for HP and has a free ticket that needs to be used before the end of the year, so I am going too. I am also taking Kate, because I can't stand the thought of leaving her again. So, I need ANY ideas you all can think of to entertain her for the 6 hour flight (on my lap), which I will be doing one way without Jarom's help. YIKES!! Seriously people, suggestions galore!!!!!
Lee Ann, you crack me up. I already have the jug of Benadryl ready to go. Great ideas. Thanks!
Did LeeAnn mention how Anna puked on the airplane??
I would totally recommend Children's Bonine. It's for motion sickness and the stuff can totally knock an elephant out (I know cause I tried it after I gave it to the kids at the fair and they slept for 14 hours that night!). And then you wouldn't have to feel guilty because, technically, she COULD get sick on the plane, right? I would also suggest little cans of play-doh, books from the library, and--oddly enough--James could spend all day trying to push my credit cards through the teeth of a comb I carry in my purse (instant game while we wait anywhere!). The carseat is a great option if you don't mind lugging the thing through the airport and being prepared to check it gate-side if there isn't an empty seat for it. Good luck duck!
Definitely try out the Bedadryl first, especially if she hasn't had it before? It makes some kids fly higher than a kite. I remember now that I gave Anna Dramamine for that flight, but I think they have to be two to give them that. Good luck!
Oh, and I always ask about the car seat when I check my bags, so I don't have to lug it through the airport if there's not going to be a seat. I'll try to post some funny airport stories later today....including the vomit one.
They will gate check the car seat in Denver if the next flight is full.
What a great time to visit Boston! Lucky! I don't have any advice for you...but I do like the idea about wrapping her toys.
If the flight from I.F. is booked, I would ask them to check the status of the next flight. If it's already booked then you know to just check it. If it's not, then I guess I would gate check it in I.F. so they give it back to you with your stroller when you get to Denver.

Patric Doonan (George William Doonan) (18 April 1926 in Derby, Derbyshire – 10 March 1958 in London) was a British stage and screen actor. He was the son of comedian George Vincent Doonan and Doris Mary (Nee Endsor) he was the  brother of fellow actor Tony Doonan.

He featured in films of the time such as The Blue Lamp, Train of Events and The Cockleshell Heroes but rarely played the leads. An exception was Wheel of Fate (1953), in which he did have the leading role and top billing. 1953 was probably Doonan's peak year in films, as in that same year he also had good supporting roles in The Net (1953) and The Red Beret (1953).

He played Detective Sergeant Trotter in The Mousetrap at the Ambassadors Theatre in London for three and a half years.

He committed suicide by gas in 1958 at his home in Margaretta Terrace, Chelsea. At the time he was engaged to marry actress Ann Firbank, despite the fact that he was already married to actress Aud Johansen.

In 1994 the singer Morrissey referenced Doonan in the song 'Now My Heart Is Full'.

JOE BIDEN AND THE UKRAINIAN CONNECTION:
According to emails obtained by the New York Post, Hunter Biden son of Joe Biden introduced his father then Vice President of the United States to a top executive at a Ukrainian energy firm less than a year before Biden pressured the President of Ukraine into firing a Ukrainian prosecutor who was investigating the company. Joe Biden have disputed this account claiming there were other reasons to fire the prosecutor.
The emails were extracted from a computer, a Mac Book pro that were dropped off for repair at a repair shop in Delaware in April of last year according to the store's owner. Other material extracted from the computer includes a raunchy, 12-minute video that appears to show Hunter, who's admitted struggling with addiction problems, smoking crack while engaged in a sex act with an unidentified woman, as well as numerous other sexually explicit images.
"The customer who brought in the water-damaged MacBook Pro for repair never paid for the service or retrieved it or a hard drive on which its contents were stored, according to the shop owner, who said he tried repeatedly to contact the client. Photos of a Delaware federal court subpoena given to The Post show that both the computer and hard drive were seized by the FBI in December, after the shop's owner says he alerted the feds to their existence.
"But before turning over the gear, the shop owner says he made a copy of the hard drive and later gave it to former Mayor Rudy Giuliani's lawyer, Robert Costello. Steve Bannon, former adviser to President Trump, told The Post about the existence of the hard drive in late September and Giuliani provided The Post with a copy. —

This 36-year old patient wanted to improve her profile by smoothing out the area just above her neck and addressing her weak chin. Austin-Weston surgeons added a chin implant and performed liposuction. The result is a more balanced and youthful face without that distracting area of stubborn fat (the dreaded "double chin") no exercise or diet can remove.

Impact of partial lockdown on breaking COVID-19 fourth wave in Bavaria

Study: Partial lockdown on unvaccinated individuals promises breaking of fourth COVID-19 wave in Bavaria. Image Credit: Lightspring/Shutterstock
However, a considerable fraction of the German population was unwilling to get vaccinated despite the availability of the vaccines. These unvaccinated individuals are at a higher risk of developing serious disease, protecting them from infection has therefore become a priority of the public health strategy.
Computer simulations have been used by epidemiologists since the beginning of the pandemic to meet the demands of decision-makers for the scientific assessment of political options and also to forecast the development of the pandemic. Agent-based models were found to be able to represent the complexity of the pandemic in some detail.
A new study published in the pre-print server medRxiv* used an agent-based epidemiological simulator, Covasim, to determine the historical course of COVID-19 in Bavaria and to analyze the effectiveness of partial lockdown on the unvaccinated population.
The study involved the creation of a synthetic population that statistically matched the real population of Germany concerning essential aspects, such as household composition or age structure. Since simulations for the entire population of Bavaria would take a long time, the researchers decided to scale up from a reduced sample.
Simulations were therefore carried out with 71,000 agents and all the absolute numbers were scaled by a factor of 185. Contact networks were set between agents for four typical environments that included school, home, work, and free time. The simulations calculated the probability of viral transmission from one agent to another given existing contacts.
Furthermore, non-pharmaceutical (public health) and pharmaceutical (vaccinations) interventions that were applied in Bavaria were integrated into the Covasim simulator and quantitatively modeled. Several aspects were accounted for in the model a few of which are base transmission probability was modeled, the crossover from the wild variant of COVID-19 to alpha and delta variants were modeled continuously, contact tracing by public health departments was modeled, working from home arrangement was simulated along with travel during summer vacations, the number of future vaccinations was assumed, and additional partial lockdown measures were simulated that affected different areas of the life of the unvaccinated people.
The free parameters of the model were fixed in such a way that the simulated curves that provided real data of the seven-day incidence and the critical cases from February 01, 2020, to November 24, 2021, matched well. Finally, the calibrated model of the pandemic was used as a starting point for simulating the future lockdown scenarios.
The results of the study indicated that the simulation was able to capture the first three waves of COVID-19 along with the beginning of the fourth wave. The model projects that in absence of any intervention, a 7-day incidence of just under 1,000 in the second last week of 2021 along with a requirement of more than 2,600 intensive care units during January 2021 in Bavaria can take place. However, the simulations also show that interventions starting from December 2021 can mitigate the fourth wave effectively.
Working from home and restricting leisure contacts of unvaccinated people was found to be beneficial in preventing transmission of infection while the exclusion of unvaccinated students from classes in schools was found to be least effective. No additional restrictions are required to be imposed on vaccinated individuals for the mitigation of the third wave.
However, it is observed that even without further interventions the number of infections and critical cases decreases before the turn of the year. This can be due to the ever-increasing immunization of the population through vaccination as well as infection. Therefore, it can be concluded that the population's immunization is progressing towards herd immunity which will make the infections less probable.
The study had certain limitations. First, data from only Bavaria or Germany have been included. Second, data on the actual implementation of public health orders was limited. Third, the study involved several assumptions which might have some influence on the simulations. Finally, the study is considered uncertain due to actual human behavior.

Functional programming allows you to write more concise code that's easier to read, debug, and maintain. It revolves around powerful, mathematical functions that tell the computer what to do—not how to do it. The developer doesn't have to worry about order of execution, loops, or conditions. You simply define the desired outcome; the computer takes care of the rest. This course introduces the benefits and features of functional programming, and shows how to use different techniques and libraries in C++ to make code more functional. Instructor Troy Miles reviews built-in functions such as transform, copyif, accumulate, and bind and shows how to convert statements into more functional expressions using C++ Lambda functions. Plus, explore template metaprogramming with C++ templates and the STL and Boost.Hana libraries, and functional reactive programming with the RxCpp Reactive Extensions library for C++.

Suzanne Clément and Antoine Olivier Pilon.
This year is really all about Mommy, though, as Xavier Dolan's tremendous film continued its roll by picking up nine Canadian Screen Awards including Best Film and Best Director. (It heads home for Quebec's Jutra Awards later this month.) Mommy continues the streak of Canada's Oscar submissions dominating the awards, for it marks the fifth consecutive win by a Canuck contender for Best Foreign Language Film. The win brings Dolan his due after missing out with the Canadian Academy in the top categories on his first four films, and he leaves with a total of four prizes himself (add Original Screenplay and Editing to the tally) and a welcome ticket to the club. The young auteur was remarkably subdued and humble in his onscreen acceptance by thanking the members of the Mommy family—including actors Antoine Olivier Pilon, Anne Dorval, and Suzanne Clément, all of whom won and have collaborated with Dolan on previous films, although he dedicated his pre-show Original Screenplay award to his mother, calling her an inspiration. (Dolan's films have been marked by mommy issues since 2009's I Killed My Mother.) The twenty-five-year-old filmmaker has done a lot to bring a fresh generation of fans both Canadian and international to the local film scene, so it's great to see him honoured by his peers. I'm really happy to see Mommy clean up at the awards, especially the actors for their full, raw, and powerful performances.
Julianne Moore: star of the night!
Maps carries some of the biggest buzz of the year for Canadian film thanks to Julianne Moore's Best Actress win at Cannes and her Golden Globe nomination, and Moore deserves another prize for coming out to support the film once again following what must have been an exhausting award season that continued after her Oscar win last week for Still Alice. Moore's attendance at last night's Canadian Screen Awards is significant since she's easily the biggest name we've had at the show so far, and it was genuinely exciting to see her presence bring so much attention to the show and to the movies when she could have easily (and understandably) called it quits after the Oscars. I think that says a lot about her character. Thanks for coming out to support Canadian films, Miss Moore! We hope to have you back!
Full credit belongs to Andrea Martin for sharing the spotlight with Julianne Moore, Xavier Dolan and company while being an excellent host. The highlight reel of Martin's very funny hosting stint includes a silly pantiless tumble on the red carpet and a good 50 Shades of Grey bit, and a nod to the unseasonable contrast from the Oscars by welcoming the stars to "The only red carpet where you have to wipe your boots." Martin's strong stint as host also deserves top marks for keeping the focus of the humour on the nominated films and television shows themselves (with a few tie-ins to pop culture references), including a fun audition spoof for Orphan Black in which she appeared as some of her alter-egos to mach Tatiana Maslany's shape-shifting performance as multiple clones. I also like how well she accepted the silliness of award season (particularly in Canada) with her opening monologue that repeated the clunkiness of the phrase "Canadian Screen Awards" and embraced the self-congratulatory character of awards season with self-deprecating glory. She killed it and I hope that she returns next year.
Andrea Martin killed in as host.
The show itself bears many signs of improvement beyond proper qualification of films, increased star status (Kiefer Sutherland was on hand to present Best Film), and funny hosting, since the Screenies simply ran more smoothly as an overall broadcast and event. More clips and coverage of the nominated films highlighted the work beyond the rolls calls and acceptance speeches, which have largely characterized the previous two shows, and the snippets of Tu dors Nicole, In Her Place, Cast No Shadow, and other nominated films prove what a strong year 2014 was for Canadian films even though all the dramatic prizes were divvied up between four films. (Dr. Cabbie nabbed Best Song while dunce blockbuster Pompeii scooped five well-deserved prizes for its technical work, plus a prize for its box office success.) Other highlight wins include doc winners Everything Will Be for the new documentary cinematography award, Jutra for Best Documentary Short, the edgy Hole for Best Live Action Short, and Oscar-nominee Me and My Moulton for Best Animated Short. Being able to see more of the films this year also made it a fairly smooth ride for predictions, for I got 19/24 bets correctly, and was pleasantly surprised by some of the mistakes.
Post by Canadian Screen Awards.
If there's any complaint to be had about the Canadian Screen Awards, it's that Martin's funny opener offers a reminder that they awards really do need an abbreviated nickname—I always feel a bit dismissive when I call them the Screenies. "Canadian Screen Awards" doesn't have the same ring as "The Oscars" or even "The Genies." Maybe a new name can be the next big makeover contest.
A bit more French could also make the broadcast more inclusive, since the show is entirely in English even though we mostly honour Québécois films every year. The show does include an on-air translator for the acceptance speeches, but I'm not sure how aware the winners and participants are since Anne Dorval began by apologizing for her English before giving a speech in Franglais—an endearing one at that. An awkward time delay also made viewership a bit scattered since press at the show were announcing the winners live an hour before most viewers caught the show at home, while I caught the Halifax-stream broadcast, which bizarrely aired live. My main complaint, though, is the voiceover that listed the nominees with attributions like 'journalism student', etc., which seems dismissive since it flags artists as part time amateurs. ('You're nominated for an award, but you're still not an actor!' it seems to say.) Most of the housekeeping, then, is on CBC's side.
All in all, though, the Canadian Screen Awards are on well on their way to help Canadians see their merits in their own arts and culture, and last night's fun, star-studded, Mommy-filled fête felt like an award show done right.
What did you think of last night's Canadian Screen Awards?

Canberra United have moved five points clear at the top of the Westfield W-League after narrowly defeating Melbourne Victory 2-1 at McKellar Park thanks to goals from Ashleigh Sykes and Taryn Hemmings.
United led 2-0 at the break and survived a late Victory surge to claim the maximum return for the fourth match in a row.
Not surprisingly, given their impressive start to the season, Canberra United named an unchanged line-up for the visit of Melbourne Victory as they aimed to record a fourth win in a row.
United had struggled with the physicality of Melbourne in the past but it was Canberra who fronted up early on with leading scorer Michelle Heyman bustling her way towards goal and firing a low shot from twenty-five metres that Brianna Davey in the Victory net needed to be alert to, diving to her right to push the effort around the post.
Victory-s response was impressive with English forward Jodie Taylor racing clear and rounding Lydia Williams only to send her strike across the face of goal from an acute angle with the empty net gaping. If that was a let off for the home team then they were obliged to Williams on the quarter hour mark.
A raking pass from Katrina Gorry on the half-volley released Stephanie Catley who advanced behind the United back-four and hit a fierce effort that Williams stood up to, parrying the ball to safety.
United-s best opening of the first twenty minutes came when Taryn Hemmings and Heyman combined with Caitlin Munoz with the Matildas international hammering her left foot shot just past the near post. However, it wasn-t long before United broke the deadlock with another superbly crafted goal.
Sally Shipard was the architect winning a crunching challenge half-way inside the Victory half before playing a precise pass down the right flank to the rampaging Ellyse Perry.
Perry sent over a dangerous low cross to the near post where Ashleigh Sykes, running across the front of her marker, arrived first to stab the ball past the despairing Davey and into the net for her second goal of the season.
The Victory really should have levelled matters four minutes later wasting a glorious chance to equalise. Amy Jackson-s low ball into the penalty area saw Catley and Gorry get in each other's way before the ball fell kindly for the former who hammered her shot over the bar with the goal at her mercy.
Catley was at the forefront again in the 34th minute getting on the end of a Taylor cutback but again leaning back and smashing her shot way over the crossbar.
Canberra made Melbourne pay for their profligacy when they doubled their lead six minutes from half time in spectacular fashion. Munoz sent a sweeping pass over the back of the Victory defence to Hemmings who crashed a half-volley of venomous power into the top corner of the net with Davey left grasping thin air.
Leading 2-0 United made a tactical change at the interval sending on Kahlia Hogg for the industrious Jennifer Bisset and it wasn-t long before Hogg was involved in the build-up that led to Heyman curling an ambitious effort just wide from distance. With Shipard and Munoz in swashbuckling form in central midfield United began to take a firm grip on proceedings with the visitors being out-fought in the critical areas of the field.
Even with the two-goal advantage United-s lead did, at times, seem precarious and Williams had to be at her usual brilliant best in making a superb double save to deny Taylor and Gorry in the 67th minute. Jitka Klimkova responded to this threat by withdrawing goal scorer Ashleigh Sykes and replacing her with the lively Queenslander Hayley Raso.
It was somewhat against the run of play therefore that Victory got themselves back into the match with a fine finish from Kendall Fletcher.
Receiving a pass through the flat United defence Fletcher took aim from just inside the penalty box and flashed a shot across Williams and into the back of the net to set up a nervy last fifteen minutes or so for the league leaders.
The Victory threw everything at United in that last quarter but some stout defence kept them out and preserved United-s percent record.

American heiress Gloria Vanderbilt, a designer and artist who became one of the most chronicled socialites of her era, died Monday, her son Anderson Cooper says on CNN.

Former Atlanta synagogue president Peter Mallen was piloting the plane when it went down in a northwestern neighborhood of the city.
The former president of an Atlanta synagogue is one of two people who died in an airplane crash in a northwestern neighborhood of the city.
Peter Mallen, 67, the founder of a high-tech textile company and president of The Temple in Atlanta from 2004 to 2006, was piloting the plane when it went down and exploded into flames last week near Interstate 285, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reported.
Officials say they are investigating and do not know the cause of the crash, which also killed a 26-year-old Emory University graduate.
The Jewish Daily Forward said Mallen was a married father of four.
According to the report, it was Mallen's second plane crash, and the second one to claim a life in his immediate family.
On Oct. 20, 1998, his small plane crash landed in a field near Rio Rancho, New Mexico, while on a flight from Las Vegas to Atlanta. Neither Mallen nor his passenger was injured, but the plane was destroyed.
In 1972, Mallen's brother, Steven Mallen, was killed when his small plane crashed near Jasper, Georgia, according to federal records.

Q: Segmentation fault 11 and other errors when trying to use JAX in python I have been trying to get the autograd/linear algebra package JAX to work on my old Macbook (CPU only, OS X 10.11.6), but I have been running into a series of problems along the way.  I'm using conda 22.11.1 with Python 3.9.12.
Trying to install JAX with conda using conda install jax -c conda-forge does not work so well.  It fails to solve the environment for a long time before finally installing old, mismatched versions of jax and jaxlib.  The incompatible versions of jax/jaxlib then raise an error in the jupyter notebook.
After conda failed, I tried manually retrieving the latest versions using python -m pip install jax==0.3.25 jaxlib==0.3.25 (in the base conda env) but this returns the error No matching distribution found for jaxlib==0.3.25 (potentially OS related).
Finally, I uninstalled jax/jaxlib and then installed 0.3.10 for both.  This approach got the packages to install, but now the Python kernel crashes with Segmentation fault 11 the moment jax or jax.numpy is imported.
Does anyone know what is going on, particularly with the Segmentation fault?  Are these problems all related to my OS X version?  Are there any workarounds I could use to get JAX up and running?
Edit: I am far from a conda expert, but here is my attempt to create a minimal environment that reproduces the problem.  I ran conda create -n jax_env python=3.9 and conda activate jax_env.  This installed the packages
bzip2                 1.0.8                h0d85af4_4    conda-forge
ca-certificates       2022.12.7            h033912b_0    conda-forge

pip                   22.3.1             pyhd8ed1ab_0    conda-forge
python                3.9.15       h709bd14_0_cpython    conda-forge

tk                    8.6.12               h5dbffcc_0    conda-forge
tzdata                2022g                h191b570_0    conda-forge

xz                    5.2.6                h775f41a_0    conda-forge

Then, I ran python -m pip install jax==0.3.10 jaxlib==0.3.10.  This added the packages
absl-py                   1.3.0                    pypi_0    pypi
flatbuffers               2.0.7                    pypi_0    pypi
jax                       0.3.10                   pypi_0    pypi
jaxlib                    0.3.10                   pypi_0    pypi
numpy                     1.23.5                   pypi_0    pypi
opt-einsum                3.3.0                    pypi_0    pypi
scipy                     1.9.3                    pypi_0    pypi
typing-extensions         4.4.0                    pypi_0    pypi

Then, running python and attempting to import jax.numpy causes the same segmentation fault 11.
Edit 2: I tried making a third environment, starting the same way but with conda install jax=0.3.10 -c conda-forge instead of pip.  The environment solved faster this time, the packages+dependencies were installed.  Interestingly, this method doesn't lead to a segmentation fault, but instead the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I suspect your options will be either to upgrade your operating system, find a pre-built jaxlib for your specific architecture (conda-forge may be an option), or build jaxlib from source on your system.
