Photobombing 'shark' in Manhattan Beach wave was most likely a bottlenose dolphin
–Photo is courtesy of @June Emerson
An alleged shark that appeared in a Manhattan Beach wave Friday as two children played in the water nearby was most likely a dolphin, according to experts who have examined the image (see top photo).
The unusual "photobomb" story went viral on Sunday and Monday, with some reports stating that the critter was a shark, and many other reports strongly implying that it was a shark.
This is somewhat understandable. There were several shark sightings in Manhattan Beach in late summer and fall, mostly from the pier or from the air. Juvenile great white sharks feed in Southern California coastal waters and are seen sporadically during summer months.
However, if you look closely at the photo, the tail fin is horizontal, like that of a dolphin. Also, there is no sign of a second dorsal fin, which sharks possess.
Plus, bottlenose dolphins are frequently seen surfing in the faces of waves, while sharks are not. If this still looks more like a shark than a dolphin, water distortion could be the reason.
(A sure way to tell would have been to see if the creature surfaced to breathe, which is a must for mammals. But the woman who captured the image didn't realize there was a creature in the wave till afterward.)
Stated Kera Mathes, a naturalist with the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, on her Facebook page:
"I know there has been a lot of concern over this news story, but just wanted to let everyone know this is a dolphin. A couple of us (mainly Julien Jordan haha) have been emailing in to the news. I couldn't agree more Julien, the news needs to check the photos and facts before you go scaring everyone! I hate that the poor sharks are getting a bad, scary, rep for this when it's a coastal bottlenose dolphin."
Diane Alps of the Los Angeles chapter of the American Cetacean Society commented on my Facebook page: "Sure looks to be a bottlenose dolphin! Single falcate dorsal fin, horizontal flukes. General body shape looks dolphin'esque too."
Stated Florida-based shark expert David Shiffman on Facebook: "I asked about a dozen shark scientists and a handful of dolphin scientists (yes, I know dolphin scientists) to confirm my suspicion that it was a dolphin, and 100% of them identified it as a dolphin. It doesn't have a second dorsal fin and the tail is flat. Dolphin.
"It took me only a few minutes to do this. And yet, the media ran with the inaccurate and fear-mongering story without reaching out to any scientists."
This is not the first case of likely mistaken identity (we cannot state as fact that the Manhattan Beach photobomber is not a shark, and Eric Martin, co-director of the Roundhouse Marine Studies Marine Lab and Aquarium at the end of the pier is among those who still think it's a shark).
In September of 2012 at the Hurley Pro surf contest at Lower Trestles near San Clemente, Kolohe Andino was photographed riding a wave while what was first thought to be a shark appeared in the wave face (middle photo).
It was identified as a bottlenose dolphin by ACS researcher Alisa Schulman-Janiger, based on the shape of its dolphin-like fluke.
In 2011 at Swami's in north San Diego County, surfers were sure that a large critter photographed in a wave was a large great white shark. The tail of the animal even looked vertical, like that of a shark. But that, too, was most likely a dolphin turned sideways as it swam through the wave (bottom photo).
Said Salvador Jorgensen, a white shark expert from Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station: "It doesn't really look like a shark tail more than, say, a dolphin sideways in the wave. But it's impossible to say for sure from the picture alone."
Christopher Lowe, a white shark expert who runs the Shark Lab at Cal State Long Beach, also said the tail looked more like that of a dolphin.
So most likely, the two kids playing in the waves at Manhattan Beach on Friday were photobombed by a bottlenose dolphin. Still a fun story, but one that would not have gotten nearly as much attention (or website traffic) had it been reported as such.

Australia's sharks are tweeting warnings to surfers, swimmers
Large sharks off Western Australia are now doing their part to keep surfers and swimmers safe–by sending tweets warning of their presence.
Scientists have fitted 320 sharks, many of them great whites, with transmitters that issue computerized warnings to the Surf Life Saving Western Australia's Twitter feed when the tagged sharks approach within a kilometer of the coast's popular beaches.
For example, a tweet sent early Saturday in Australia reads: "Fisheries advise: tagged Bronze whaler shark detected at Garden Island (north end) receiver at 06:0700 AM on 27-Dec-2013."
The twitter feed has more than 14,000 followers and the real-time warnings, it's hoped, will help people make more informed decisions when considering ocean activities.
Chris Peck, from SLSWA, told Sky News that this system will reach beachgoers before alerts issued via traditional media, such as radio and newspapers.
"You might not have got some information until the following day, in which case the hazard has long gone and the information might not be relevant," Peck said. "Now it's instant information and really people don't have an excuse to say we're not getting the information, it's about whether you are searching for it and finding it."
Six people have been killed by sharks off Western Australia in the past two years. The latest victim, Chris Boyd, 35, was fatally bitten while surfing in November.
The government has been under tremendous pressure to make the waters safer and the Tweeting program comes after a decision to allow professional hunters to kill large sharks sighted in certain areas.
Premier Colin Barnett recently told reporters: "The safety of human life, the safety of beach goers using our marine environment must come first."
The shark-culling effort, however, has been highly criticized as a program that will only lend a perception that the waters are safer after a shark or several sharks are removed.
So far, nobody has tweeted in opposition to shark's using Twitter to announce their arrival. To be sure, it seems like the more rational of the two plans.

Killer whale spectacle in Santa Monica Bay is 'like SeaWorld without the tanks'
Killer whales are at the center of a broiling SeaWorld controversy, thanks to "Blackfish the Movie," which shed light on how the iconic mammals are treated in captivity.
Many are boycotting SeaWorld parks. Animal rights advocates have arranged on-site protests, and several entertainers have canceled shows in opposition to SeaWorld's captive killer whale programs.
SeaWorld's shows go on, however, the park insisting that its orcas are ambassadors who foster appreciation of the ocean and critters.
But this week off Los Angeles, four wild killer whales proved emphatically that the most spectacular shows are those performed willingly in the wild, and that fishy treats are not required for them to leap and splash. (Video posted below.)
Alisa Schulman-Janiger, a killer whale researcher, and Eric Martin, a marine biologist, on Monday afternoon were witness to a spectacle they'll never forget.
"It was like SeaWorld without the tanks," joked Martin, co-director of the Roundhouse Marine Studies Lab and Aquarium at the end of Manhattan Beach Pier.
The encounter began nine miles west of Redondo Beach, with what Schulman-Janiger described as "a chorus line greeting," and ended an hour later a bit farther to the north.
The killer whales breached and spyhopped, surfed wakes created by the moving boat, and played beneath the vessel.
They even killed a smaller mammal–most likely a common dolphin–and celebrated with more acrobatics.
"They often do that after a kill," Schulman-Janiger said, adding that this marks the third consecutive year this group has appeared off Los Angeles during the holiday season. (Their home turf is Monterey Bay in Central California.)
The orcas are family members that include the matriarch cataloged by Schulman-Janiger as CA51 (age unknown), a 15-year-old male (CA51B), a 10-year-old male (CA51C), and a 3-year-old female (CA51D), who is named Comet because of her unusual eye patches. CA51C has been nicknamed bumper because of his friendly belly-bumping of Martin's boat last December.
They're part of a group of transient killer whales known to be extremely boat friendly, and one that has recently begun to include Southern California as part of its range.
The group sometimes include CA51's 21-year-old daughter (CA51A), who has formed a separate sub-pod with her two offspring.
Monday's sighting was the fifth in four weeks of the CA51 group off the Los Angeles/Long Beach area. The sighting was first made by volunteers with the ACS-LA Gray Whale Census and Behavior Project at Point Vicente on the Palos Verdes Peninsula.
That inspired Schulman-Janiger and Martin to embark on a search aboard his 18-foot boat.
They spotted a tall, black dorsal fin at 3:07 p.m. and 13 minutes later they were surrounded by orcas.
"They approached and came right at us and stopped all together," Schulman-Janiger said. "It was like a chorus-line greeting. They swam under and around our boat and poked their faces out of the water. They did this five or six times."
When Martin ran his boat the killer whales surfed in its wake, the largest male a mere inches from the transom. When the boat stopped, the mammals surrounded the boat and resumed playing around and beneath the vessel, occasionally poking their heads out of the water for a closer look at their visitors.
Said Martin: "They were making eye contact with us, not just the boat. They were looking into our eyes, the way humans do. I don't see how it can get any better."
Perhaps this act could be labeled, "Blackfish, Wild and Free."
–Note: Schulman-Janiger is co-founder of the California Killer Whale Project. People who have photographs of killer whales spotted off California, or information about sightings, are asked to contact the researcher at Janiger@Cox.net

Why are there no elk in central or southern Sierra Nevada?
In support of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and its effort to keep hunters and anglers informed, Pete Thomas Outdoors, on Thursday or Friday, posts marine biologist Carrie Wilson's weekly California Outdoors Q&A column:
Question: Why are there no elk in the central or southern Sierra Nevadas? It seems like ideal habitat comparable to that found in Colorado, but the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation doesn't even show it as a historic range for elk. Is there some reason they could not and do not thrive in the high Sierras, or at least the foothills? (Nick C.)
Answer: It's true that the historic range of elk in California did not include the Sierra Nevada range. According to California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) Statewide Elk and Antelope Coordinator Joe Hobbs, historically tule elk were found in the Central Valley, coast range and the Sierra foothills, but did not occupy the higher elevation regions of the Sierra Nevada.
Previous studies suggest that the Great Basin, combined with the Sierra Nevada and Cascade ranges, served as a western barrier to the natural movement of Rocky Mountain elk (typically found in Colorado, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming and Montana).
Hobbs also says elk are slowly expanding in California and we have received reports of elk in various parts of the Sierra (Plumas, Sierra and even Tuolumne counties). Currently, California has three subspecies of elk. In addition to the tule elk of the Central Valley and foothills, Roosevelt elk are found in the north coast area and the coastal interior regions, and Rocky Mountain elk reside in northeastern California.
Although the Sierra does seem to be composed of habitat capable of supporting elk, historically this was not the case due to the topography of California. Tule elk were found in the Central Valley and coast range and evolved for utilization of these habitat types and not those found in the higher elevations of the Sierra Nevada. The Great Basin and various mountain ranges prevented the Rocky Mountain elk from dispersing into the western portion of the Sierra Nevada range.

Mysterious creature spotted off Dana Point; was it part of a large squid?
What's exciting about heading to sea is that you never know when something unexpected will materialize before your eyes.
During a recent excursion off Dana Point in Orange County, with Dana Wharf Whale Watch, the captain's focus was far to the west, where fin whales had been spotted on the previous trip.
But a few people at the bow stared downward in wonder as the 95-foot Dana Pride plowed over a three-foot-long creature that was pinkish-white and trailed what looked like tentacles.
Some were calling it an octopus but my first thought was that it was part of a "Humboldt" or jumbo squid. These mysterious denizens, which thrive at depths of 600 to more than 2,000 feet, can measure up to six feet long.
It definitely looked as though it were part of something that used to be more complete.
Unfortunately, the sighting was very brief. The captain was not alerted and the carcass was not collected. I was fortunate to have gotten a photo before the carcass was plowed over at cruising speed.
We proceeded offshore and saw seeing four fin whales and, a bit later, three gray whales.
When I got home I emailed the image to William Gilly, a scientist at Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station, and one of the world's leading authorities on Humboldt squid.
"What the heck is this?" I asked. "Could it be part of a Humboldt squid?"
His response was along the lines of, "I'm not sure because you dummies did not collect the specimen."
He was more polite, of course, stating: "Well, it has eight arm-like things but I don't see any sign of a head or eyes or mouth. Did you collect it? How big? I guess it could be the empty head of a jumbo squid with eyes ripped out, etc., but not really sure."
The photo was posted on a whale-watching group's Facebook page, and one of the comments was from Eric Austin Yee, an educator at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach.
It read: "Wow! Hard to say exactly without getting my hands on it, but steering to larger species of squid from this photo. Pretty cool!"
By larger, presumably, he meant Humboldt squid as opposed to much smaller market squid, which are commercially fished and sold as calamari.
But was it for sure a squid, or part of a squid? An alien life form, perhaps?
Alas, we may never know.

Can overpopulated deer herds be relocated?
Question: I live in the Christian Valley area above Auburn. The deer are overpopulated but they are protected in the area. The deer are starving and eat everything in sight. I've bought deer-resistant plants and cover them at night, but then they rip off the covering and devour my plants. I've spent hundreds of dollars to try to keep plants on my property. I've even bought coyote packets to scare them away, but they tear them off and go right by them. I try to chase these deer away but they are so domesticated now that they have charged me and kicked my dog. I need help! How can I get Fish and Wildlife to transfer the deer to a higher location? I love animals but the deer here are destroying all I've put out. (Mary N., Auburn)
Answer: Unfortunately, because most of the deer in your area are migratory, moving them up the hill won't help as they will soon be moving back because of snow and forage availability anyway. More than that though, according to Game Species Conservation Program Manager Craig Stowers, it is the policy of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to not move depredating deer. There are several reasons for this:
1) Several studies (including one of our own) have indicated the survival rates for these animals are extremely low.
2) The benefits from all wildlife captures must be weighed against the risks of injury/death to the individual animals and personnel involved. Since the survival rates are so low in these instances, the benefits most definitely do not outweigh the risks.
3) There is a very real potential for introducing new diseases and/or parasites when moving animals from one area to another without health testing, and the only way that can effectively be done is through a quarantine process. Unfortunately, we don't have the facilities for that and couldn't take care of the deer long enough for test results to come back.
4) Physical deterrence is the only proven long-term solution (fencing or some type of barrier). Even if we could move a large number of deer, there are others which would eventually move in to replace them.
As California becomes more urbanized, these types of problems will continue to increase in frequency. Traditional methods of managing wildlife populations are becoming increasingly unavailable to us, primarily because of public safety issues and changing societal values. CDFW has implemented a pilot project in the San Jose area to address a very similar problem and we are hopeful it can turn into something we can use in the future as these problems are only going to continue.

Black swans steal surfing spotlight on Australia's Gold Coast
Dolphins are the most likely critters to invade a surfing lineup and steal the spotlight.
But on Friday at Kirra, on Australia's Gold Coast, four back swans made a rare appearance in the surf and became an instant hit when they began to catch and ride waves. (Video posted below.)
"We've seen Mick Fanning and Kelly Slater, but not four black swans," Kelvin Mills, a Kirra local, says in the News 9 video, referring to iconic pro surfers who are in Hawaii vying for the world title.
Mills had never seen black swans in Kirra, let alone surfing swans.
And what makes the footage so unusual is that the birds were not merely swept up unsuspectingly by waves; they were actually riding the surf, seemingly for fun.
The first swan in the clip catches a wave to shore, oblivious to the human onlookers. It then paddles back out, using flight to get over the oncoming waves, instead of duck-diving beneath the waves as surfers do.
The three other swans then drop in at once and ride the "party wave" together.
Ultimately, they fly off, presumably to find a better break.

Muskie madness: two potential world records in two days
When the giant muskie caught by Matt Forjohn last week taped out at 130 centimeters, or 51.18 inches, the angler was sure that he'd soon be owner of a new world record.
The December 2 catch, on the St. Lawrence River out of New York, exceeded the existing length record by two centimeters, and Forjohn adhered to International Game Fish Association rules.
An IGFA spokesman even implied that everything seemed to be in order, and said the catch was under world-record consideration. (See top photo.)
But then came the unexpected twist. According to an IGFA announcement issued Thursday, "a rare thing happened in the world of sportfishing: two different anglers caught potential new all-tackle length record muskies in the same river only two days apart."
On December 4, Mark Carlson of Rockford, Illinois, battled a muskie for 15 minutes on the St. Lawrence. It measured 132 centimeters, or just a hair under 52 inches (bottom photo).
Making this story more bizarre is that Carlson is the current record holder for a 128-centimeter muskie he caught in 2011 on the Ottawa River.
So a likely scenario is that the IGFA will approve Forjohn's catch, because it received his paperwork first, briefly giving him the record.
But the IGFA probably will then approve Carlson's catch, giving the record back to him.
The IGFA is currently referring to both catches as "potential world records," but that's only because it has yet to complete an approval process that generally takes a few weeks.
Both anglers are being lauded for participating in the IGFA's fairly new length-record program. It was launched two years ago as a means of encouraging anglers to release their catches after a quick measurement.
The long-standing weight-record program, unfortunately, requires fish to be weighed on a certified scale. To do this, potential record catches in almost all cases are killed and brought to a marina or official weighmaster.
For the sake of comparison, the all-tackle world record for heaviest muskie is a 67-pound, 8-ounce specimen pulled from Wisconsin's Lake Court Orielles in 1949.
Passionate muskie anglers have for decades been in pursuit of that record.
The muskies caught by Forjohn and Carlson were estimated to weigh about 55 pounds, making them among the largest muskies ever caught.
The best part of this story, and muskie anglers are sure to agree, is that both are still in the river, and are likely to be significantly larger the next time they're caught.
That is, if the muskies are caught again.

Bodyboarder attacked by shark off island of Hawaii
A bodyboarder was bitten Wednesday off the Big Island of Hawaii by what was believed to be a 10- to 12-foot tiger shark.
A 29-year-old unidentified Captain Cook man was being treated for non-life-threatening injuries, according to Hawaii News Now.
The incident occurred at about 8 a.m. near Punalu'u Beach Park in Ninole Bay, in shallow water about 20 yards from shore. The bay and beach were ordered closed by lifeguards and will reopen Friday at noon.
This marks the 14th known shark attack in Hawaiian waters this year. Eight of those, two of which resulted in a fatality, occurred off Maui.

U.S. Marine catches great white shark while fishing from beach at Camp Pendleton
Jeff Fangman accomplished a rare feat recently while fishing from the shore of Camp Pendleton north of San Diego. The U.S. Marine reeled in a great white shark, which he subsequently released because the species is protected.
The catch of a juvenile white shark measuring about 10 feet was made October 27, but Fangman did not share the story beyond his circle of friends until this week.
The avid big-game angler had recently moved to California from the Gulf Coast and was accompanied by his wife and daughter. He used heavy gear and delivered the bait far offshore via a kayak.
He was targeting sharks or stingrays, but never expected to set his hook into the jaws of the planet's most notorious marine predator.
During an exclusive interview with 10 News, Fangman said that he had landed plenty of large sharks when he fishing Gulf Coast waters. "Bull sharks, tiger sharks, sandbar sharks, lemon sharks," he said.
He also knew that when the line started spinning off his reel, he had something big on the other end.
"Lo and behold, it ended up being a great white," he said.
Juvenile great white sharks utilize Southern California coastal waters as a feeding area. They're sometimes caught unintentionally by commercial gillnet fishermen, but they're rarely hooked by anglers.
Very few have been hooked from the beach, and in recent years a few have been hooked from piers.
In the summer of 2011, for example, an angler on Huntington Beach Pier in Orange County gaffed and hauled up a great white, and after sharing his celebrated catch on YouTube he fell under investigation and was ultimately fined by the state Department of Fish and Wildlife.
Last summer off Manhattan Beach Pier in Los Angeles County, an angler was persuaded to cut the line after reeling a great white to the pier only after a heated argument with a marine biologist who threatened to call police.
Fortunately, Fangman was aware that white sharks are a protected species and was able to help get the predator back into its domain, and watched it swim off.
"Just still kind of elated at the moment," he told 10 News.

Amphetamines (Adderall, Dexedrine, Speed, Bennies, Uppers)
New Jersey Drug Amphetamines Possession and Distribution Defense Attorneys
Drug Facts About Amphetamines
Amphetamine Brand names: Adderall, Dexedrine, Vyvanse
Street names: Speed, Dex, Dexies, Bennies, Addies, Uppers
Drug Classification: Amphetamines are a Schedule II drug in the US. They are illegal to sell without a DEA license and illegal to possess without a license or prescription.
General Drug Information
Amphetamine is a stimulant drug that increases focus and concentration and decreases appetite and fatigue. Many medications contain amphetamines or metabolize in the body into amphetamines, with their use especially prevalent in the treatment of attention-deficit disorder.
Amphetamines come in pill form with or without an extended release coating. Amphetamines are widely used recreationally, especially as a performance-enhancer used at school or work. Amphetamines are also used in the military by fighter pilots to stay awake on long mission, as well as by truck drivers and other workers. Amphetamines may stunt growth in children, and special care should be used when treating children with amphetamine medications.
While amphetamines are often used as a study or work aid, their recreational use is prevalent at parties and in the rave scene. This has had dangerous consequences, causing many pills purported to be MDMA to contain amphetamines, resulting either in unexpected effects or a dangerous combination of drugs that can damage the dopamine receptors in the brain. Taking amphetamines after taking a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) may intensify the effects of amphetamines up to six times what would be normal.
Effects and Side Effects
Amphetamines produce increased wakefulness, alertness, and sociability in users. They are also known to commonly cause restlessness, anxiety, and irritability. Some users may become aggressive, paranoid, and otherwise hostile or bizarre.
Common side effects include headache, insomnia, dizziness, dry mouth, and appetite suppression/weight loss. Less common effects may include drying of the mucous membranes in the nose, drying of the skin and itchiness, overheating and sweating, and agitation.
More serious side effects like irregular heartbeat, increased blood pressure (can appear as severe headaches, chest pain, blurred vision, and numbness), muscle twitches, hallucinations, and tremors are rare and warrant medical attention.
Amphetamine Overdose
Responses to amphetamines vary widely from individual to individual. In some, a 30 mg dose can be fatal, while other people survived doses of over 400 mg. An overdose of amphetamines can be fatal and also requires immediate medical attention.
Overdose symptoms include muscle twitching, rapid breathing, panic, paranoia, fever or flu symptoms, uneven heartbeat, nausea and vomiting, stomach pain, and fainting. Tolerance to amphetamine develops rapidly in recreational use and more slowly in medical use.
Addiction and Withdrawal Symptoms
Physical and mental dependence may develop from amphetamines, with users needing the drug to ever feel fully awake, focused, or happy. Ending use of amphetamines can cause withdrawal symptoms such as fatigue, prolonged sleep, severe hunger, irritability, nightmares, depression, and anxiety.
Amphetamine withdrawal symptoms can be treated in a controlled environment with some antidepressants, sedatives, and anti-psychotic medications.

My images were all taken at the Ararat Cup in Country Victoria in 1999, shot as part of a freelance project to help the community of Ararat which was suffering the combined ravages of drought and economic recession. The images were exhibited throughout the township in the following months, in order that the community would be able to hold a mirror up to itself and be proud of their achievements and gain strength and pride for what they already have. These images have been retained in an archive in the local shire as a document of the life and times of Ararat in 1999, prior to the Millennium.
My decision to shoot these images with a panorama camera was not made for fashionable reasons, more it was made to match the notion of the scope that is so often felt at a race track, the very horizontal landscape. The documentary approach or ?fly on the wall?, where I have not in any way altered the position or gestures of the people in these images, puts you in the room in a very easy way - it takes you to that place and time, in a way only photography can do. A true reflection of a moment in time.


The primary objective of the scheme is to generate long term capital appreciation by investing predominantly in equity and equity related securities of listed companies. The scheme will without any capitalization bias endeavor to invest in either growth stocks or value stocks or both. The Scheme will normally hold upto 30 stocks in the portfolio.


Saturday, 18-Oct-2014, was our first notable gull movement here on the south rim of Lake Michigan. We tallied 8 species at the Miller Beach Lakewatch, with Thayer's Gull and Laughing Gull being the most interesting larids.
Lakewatches are fun...even in the rain.
Birders tallied 4 Thayer's Gulls, which is apparently an Indiana state "day" high count for October.

Advice: "In your cover letter, make sure to center the tone about how you can help the company rather than what you want from the company. Instead of saying, "I know I would gain great experience from this position," say "I am confident that my enthusiasm will benefit your team." Also give examples of ideas that you will bring to the company!"
Massado Ngompe (CWR'22)

Major: Electrical Engineering; Computer Science minor
Organization/Company: Apartment List
Responsibilities: "I was responsible for creating more robust and user-friendly functionality on Admin Console, their internal web application that caters to both their supply operations teams in addition to property owners. This involved collaborating with my team and teams across the company to do user research and determine desired feature updates as well as additions. At the end of my internship, the requested functionality components I created for the web application were added to their production application and documentation I wrote served as a guideline to implement similar features in the future."

Nicholas Nazak (CWR'22)
Major: Biomedical Engineering; Biomechanics
Organization/Company: Constellation Medical, LLC.
Responsibilities: "My role was largely a product/market researcher. I would gather data about COVID-19 test kits and compile them in a useful and concise way. This included sensitivity/specificity statistics, the specific genes of the virus the test kits would seek to isolate, and the general method by which a certain test would actually work to identify the virus. With this information, I wrote short descriptions of each test Constellation Medical would provide for the company website."
Advice: "Involve yourself as much as you can, especially if you are passionate about a certain topic. Your experience (and therefore success) will easily snowball from there. The hardest, yet simplest, part about anything is taking that first step. Do not be afraid to do so; your proactivity will reward you almost instantly in more ways than you'd think."

Sheepdog is a set of Objective-C categories that add higher order methods like map, filter, reduce and their ilk. Sheepdog is heavily influenced by Clojure and in particular the functions available in Clojure.Core.

Sheepdog is just two files and highly tested.

## Examples

More examples are available in the docs. This is just a taste:

*Map*
```
NSArray *array = @[@(1), @(-1)];
[array map:^id(id obj) {
    return @([obj integerValue] + 1);
}];
--> [2, 0]
```
*Every*
```
NSArray *array = @[@(1), @(-1), @(2), @(4)];
[array every:^BOOL(id obj) {
    return [obj integerValue] < 0;
}];
--> NO
```
*Partition*
```
NSArray *array = @[@(1), @(2), @(3), @(4)];
[array partition:2];
--> [[1, 2], [3,4]]
```
*Group By*
```
NSArray *array = @[@"bob", @"mat", @"sing", @"song"];
[array groupBy:^id(id obj) {
   return @([obj length]);
}];
--> {3: ["bob", "mat"], 4: ["sing", "song"]}
```

Other array utilities are available including: min, max, reverse, sort, distinct.

## Why?

I made Sheepdog after becoming frusterated with other open source options. Some of the problems I have with existing options include:

* Requiring Objective-C runtime hacks
* Overly complex because of chaining
* Having lots of dependencies

## Advantages
* Just two files, super easy to add to your project!
* No dependencies
* Works on iOS & Mac
* Tested
* Simple

## Disadvantages
* Only supports NSArray and NSSet currently
* No chaining
* Not as feature rich as something like Underscore.m

## License

MIT Licensed. Have fun.

The verdict: We really like them!

LunchBots Stainless Steel Containers, loaded with This-n-That lunches. From left to right: Uno, Quad, Trio.
PS–LunchBots are a perfect gift to put on your child's wish list for holidays and birthdays. If you have friends or family members who love to give gifts to your children, let it be a useful and long-lasting gift.
As I mentioned in My Ongoing Household Detox Resolution, Phase Three: Kitchenware, I'm trying to reduce our use of plastic, so these stainless steel bento containers are the perfect alternative.
They're just the right size for the boys' lunches. They even work well for Mr. Native Texan when he joins us for lunch on-the-go, as long as I pack his fruit separately.
UPDATE: There is now a large bento box, perfect for adult-sized meals. We also love the smaller pico container, a handy size for smaller snacks or for separating certain foods from the rest of your meal.
Large LunchBot packed with Pumpkin Nut Butter Brownies for the whole family.
Except for the painted lids, which must be handwashed. We found out the hard way…even though it's clearly stated on both the website and the product packaging. The actual containers, as well as the stainless steel lids (non-painted) go right into the dishwasher. Easy peasy! UPDATE: Check out these awesome new dishwasher-safe lids!
They stack so nicely, and the entire stack fits perfectly in our cooler. Which means that everything stays put–we've had absolutely no spillage.
The slight lip all the way around the lids make them the perfect plate when removed and placed upside down next to the divided container.
Our original Lunchbots are almost five years old and are still going strong. We've used the heck out of them (have I mentioned I have three boys?) and they've held up amazingly well. These babies are built to last.
More than four years after the purchase of our first set of LunchBots, we now own an entire collection in different sizes and shapes. There is literally a LunchBots for any and every food-packing need!
Regular Uno – awesome for sandwiches, fruit, etc.
Regular Duo – just like the Uno, but divided.
Regular Trio I – just like the Uno, but with three compartments. We use these often!
Regular Trio II – just like the Trio I, but with slightly different compartment configuration.
Regular Quad – we use this one for Little Bro's lunch. See very last picture below.
Large bento box – perfect for adult-sized lunches. Or brownies for the entire family, as pictured above.
Small Pico Uno – great for snacks or for toddlers.
Small Pico Duo – just like the Pico Uno, but divided.
Round leak proof 4 oz – they really are leak proof!
Round lead proof 8 oz – ideal for yogurt, applesauce, and other drippy foods.
Tiny round condiment containers (They work really well for my favorite salad dressing*, hummus, crispy sunflower seeds, dark chocolate squares, and more!) *These tiny containers have a rubber gasket in the lid, which provides a water-tight seal.
LunchBots Stainless Steel Condiment Containers, loaded up with our favorite dark chocolate.
We love these stainless steel containers! They've held up very well despite frequent abuse from little hands over several years, and I'm confident they'll last for years to come. Do you have any tips for packing a plastic-free lunch?

Organized into different levels according to age, each study provides in-depth material from the same book of the Bible. Each study book is synchronized to cover the same truths at the same time but with graphics and learning tools appropriate for the age group.
Level 1, for ages 4-7, is an activity book with coloring, drawing, matching and other fun learning tools.
Level 2, for ages 7-10, contains light reading, fill-in-the-blank, and application sections.
Level 3, for ages 11-14, involves more investigation and questions for the student to answer.
Level 4, for teens and adults, steps up the reading and the depth of study including the definition of several Greek or Hebrew terms.
Level 5 is for the parent or study leader with guidance and background to lead a group of all ages.
The Sword Study series, originally created for competitors in The Shelby Kennedy Foundation's National Bible Bee, is now available to everyone for the first time. Families no longer have to compete in the Bible Bee to establish family discipleship in the home with this one-of-a-kind study.
The Sword Study available for this tour is II Timothy. I John is also available to the public and I Peter is scheduled for release in the fall of 2013. A new study is scheduled to be released each year. For more information visit www.swordstudy.org.
The Shelby Kennedy Foundation exists to help families strengthen their personal relationship with the Lord. They do this by coming along side parents as they disciple their children through in-depth study of the Word of God, Scripture memory and prayer. For more information visit www.swordstudy.org.
I was given level 5 of the Sword Study: A Family Centered Bible Study on II Timothy for Each Age Level. This study book is for the parent/leader. There are 10 weeks of study. Each lesson begins with a short introductory story for the week with 5 days of study. Each day students begin by praying, reading and writing and then do an investigative study with application. Each day is concluded with a guided prayer with ACTS (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication). Each week kicks off with a Family Bonfire which gets the family prepared and ready for the upcoming week. Every Family Bonfire has a great outline for reading Scripture, Worship, Family Discussion Questions, Bible Memory and a Closing Prayer. There are also several diagrams and interactive worksheets to fill in.
This looks like a powerful and well thought out Bible study for families to enjoy together. I'm very impressed with the depth of the lessons and that all age levels will be able to participate in their own way. This product is very well endorsed by Nancy Leigh DeMoss (Revive Our Hearts radio host), Kirk Cameron (Actor, Speaker) and Joni Eareckson Tada (Founder and CEO of Joni and Friends). This is a great tool for bringing families together, searching Scriptures, applying God's Word to daily living and praying for guidance to live the Spirit-led life.

Singh Strangles Second Wife
Gurpreet Singh has been accused of killing his second wife in a staged burglary. Sarbjit Kaur, 38, was found dead in their home on Rookery Lane, Wolverhampton on 16th...
Gurpreet Singh has been accused of killing his second wife in a staged burglary.
Sarbjit Kaur, 38, was found dead in their home on Rookery Lane, Wolverhampton on 16th February 2018, in the sewing workshop where she worked. A month prior to her death, Kaur claimed to be depressed and have suicidal thoughts, as found in her GP's notes. The reason stated for this was because Mr Singh did not want to have children with her.
Singh, 43, told the Birmingham Crown Court that he had no part in her death, saying: "I love my wife, she loves me and I would never ever think of this". He also continued to say that his late wife "never talked about" wanting children, or her depression.
Prosecutors on the case allege that Mr Singh and an anonymous accomplice killed Kaur before damaging the house "to make it look like a burglary gone wrong". This mystery figure was believed to be a female accomplice, seen arriving at the murder scene at 8:15am and departing at 9:07am – four minutes after Singh left the house for work and at the same time that Sarbjit was killed.
Singh claimed he was watching the news in the living room until 8:30am, with a TV set positioned in the bay window that overlooks the drive. He said he had not seen anyone pass the window and was unaware of anyone being in the property – instead suggesting it may have been one of Sarbjit's customers. The visitor was described to be wearing a parka with a fur-lined hood and carrying a Sports Direct bag.
The jury heard that Singh had received a WhatsApp message three weeks prior warning of a woman in similar dress who knocked on people's doors with a "gang of men wanting to steal, rob and hurt". This correlation led to the idea that the burglary was staged as a cover.
Prosecutor David Mason QC asked Singh if this was done "just in case the police think this person might have something to do with the woman in the photograph on your phone?" Singh replied: "No, sir."
It is also believed that this was Singh's latest mistress. When questioned on if he was having an affair with the visitor, Singh replied "I'm not that sort of person". However, Singh had kept Sarbjit as a mistress for over two years whilst he was still married to his first wife, Amandeep Kaur, who died in 2014. This was because of a brain haemorrhage, but the court had previously heard from Heera Singh Uppal, who claimed to be a former employee of Singh and said he had been offered £20,000 to kill Amandeep Kaur. Mr Singh denied the allegation and said he had not employed Mr Uppal at his company.
Singh denied all charges of soliciting the murder of his first wife and strangling the second.
Mr Mason said to Singh: "I suggest you think wives are just disposable objects".

The car belonged to a 91 year old man named Bill. He was told by the fire brigade that what most likely happened to his vehicle was that someone tried to break into his car to vandalise it. It's hard to tell how it happened, but it seems like it was ignited the petrol from the fuel cap, causing the petrol tank to split and the car to explode. The spilt petrol kept burning, and took the brigade over an hour to put out the flames.
The worst thing is, even though Bill pays his car insurance, his total doesn't even come close to the worth of his car. He's left with no choice but to sell all of the spare parts he has, and settle for less.
However what struck me the most was, when Bill told me about all of this, he spoke about it with so much delight and enthusiasm. He caught me taking photos and before I could explain that I was a street photographer, he stopped and encouraged me to take more photos. While explaining to me how he's just lost one of his most valued properties, in one of the worst way possible, he still managed to find reasons to smile and laugh about the whole ordeal. I enjoyed the conversation so much, that I forgot to ask him for his portrait.
Perhaps we could all learn something from Bill.

A new campus carry law in Texas is forcing universities to adapt to the new reality of people bringing guns onto campus.
As required by a new state law, the University of Texas announced concealed handgun policies for its campus Feb. 17.
The policies, announced by UT President Gregory L. Fenves, outline how firearms must be carried, where firearms are still forbidden and establish a new Campus Carry Implementation Task Force at the university.
The policies are a reaction to a law passed in Texas in May of 2015 that will allow concealed carry permit holders to bring guns onto college campuses starting Aug.1, which is the 50th anniversary of a mass shooting at UT Austin that resulted in the killing of 14 victims and injuring of 32 others. The law was further elaborated on in December by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. Paxton announced that public schools cannot ban guns from dormitories or classrooms, although they can make rules for storing the weapons.
Many college officials, including those representing the University of Texas System, strongly opposed the bill as it was debated in the Texas legislature.
The following is a summary of each new UT policy.
Concealed Carry license holders must carry their handguns "on or about their person at all times or secure their handgun in a locked, privately-owned or leased motor vehicle." The exception is license holders living on campus, who are allowed to store their handguns in a gun safe.
License holders bringing semiautomatic handguns on campus cannot have a chambered round of ammunition.
License holders cannot bring handguns on the premises of any government court or offices utilized by the court unless authorized by the court. A sign will be posted at the entrance of the court or associated offices.
License holders cannot bring handguns into businesses that have Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code licenses if the businesses derive more than half of their income from the sale of alcoholic beverages.
License holders cannot bring handguns to an area where a high school, collegiate, or professional sporting event is taking place unless the license holder is a participant in that event and a handgun is used in the event. The rule will be printed on event tickets if possible.

Emma Watson Crashes United Nations Website With Her Goodwill Ambassador Announcement
Asawin Suebsaeng
Emma Watson/Facebook
Emma Watson—the humanitarian and staunch feminist who you may recognize from such films as The Bling Ring, Noah, and the Harry Potter movies—is now working with the United Nations on gender equality and female empowerment.
On Monday, UN Women and Watson announced that she had been appointed as a celebrity Goodwill Ambassador. The 24-year-old British actress will work on the "empowerment of young women and will serve as an advocate for UN Women's HeForShe campaign," according to the UN Women's press release. (The HeForShe campaign enlists men and boys to stand up for gender equality.) In 2012, Watson became an ambassador for the Campaign for Female Education.
The announcement drew enough web traffic to crash the UN Women website. "We apologize & hope to be back up soon," the UN entity tweeted. The site experienced problems for roughly 12 hours following the announcement. "This is the power of [Watson]; she has such global appeal," UN Women's Elizabeth Nyamayaro told Mother Jones.
"Ms. Emma Watson is someone who is not only smart, but someone who is very passionate about girls' issues," Nyamayaro said, explaining why the UN reached out to the actress in the first place. According to Nyamayaro, Watson is particularly excited about working with HeForShe, and will also support the work of young women across UN Women's strategic pillars, including economic empowerment, ending violence against women, political participation, and peace and security.
Here is Watson's full statement on her new gig:
Being asked to serve as UN Women's Goodwill Ambassador is truly humbling. The chance to make a real difference is not an opportunity that everyone is given and is one I have no intention of taking lightly. Women's rights are something so inextricably linked with who I am, so deeply personal and rooted in my life that I can't imagine an opportunity more exciting. I still have so much to learn, but as I progress I hope to bring more of my individual knowledge, experience, and awareness to this role.
(Watson expressed her excitement on Twitter with a blushing emoticon.)
Other celebrity Goodwill Ambassadors for the UN include Liam Neeson, "Twitter Nazi hunter" Mia Farrow, and Orlando Bloom.
Below is video of Watson visiting slum homes and a fair trade group in Bangladesh: "I still find it hard to convey what fair trade means to those producing our fashion—it's just so impressive to see how the women have used fair trade clothing to escape poverty and empower themselves and their children," Watson said. "I was moved and inspired."

Does the cash bail system punish the poor, particularly those accused of minor drug crimes and similar offenses, instead of guaranteeing them the right to a fair trial?
Many people think so. Now, Maryland's highest court has adopted a ruling that aims to end the practice of imprisoning the accused simply because they're too poor to pay their bail. The cash bail system has come under increased scrutiny in many states lately because it has a disproportionate effect on those charged with low-level crimes who aren't willing to accept a plea bargain.
For example, a New York defendant featured in one expose on the national issue was held for several weeks on the charge of possessing "drug paraphernalia." What he actually had was a straw that was given to him when he purchased a soda inside a local store. While he was offered a plea deal that would have sent him home, he declined only in part because he was actually innocent. Part of his reason for refusing the deal was fear of what would happen if he was arrested again. The guilty plea would add to his criminal record.
Opponents of the cash bail system say that cases like his are happening all over the nation. Many defendants who are innocent plead guilty anyhow, just to avoid languishing in prison while they wait trail because they can't afford the bail. They say it's an open secret that the legal system would collapse if everyone insisted on his or her right to a fair trial, so bails set just out of reach of those without resources force the accused to choose between his or her rights and his or her desire to go free.
Maryland's reforms are taking a middle-of-the-road approach. Rather than ending the system entirely (which was heavily opposed by the bail bond industry), it will instruct judges to take into account the individual circumstances of each defendant instead of setting bail according to the nature of the offense. It will also encourage the use of alternatives like pretrial supervision and electronic monitoring.
In addition to treating poor defendants more fairly and ensuring their right to a fair trail, the measures could save the state millions by reducing the number of prisoners being held for trial.
If you're arrested on minor drug charges or something similar, don't accept a plea deal without considering the implications for your future. An attorney can provide more information.

Swansea offering a new deal to their 6ft 3in giant is a total no-brainer – Cooper must do this
by Sayan Chatterjee October 18, 2019, 1:45 am
Why Swansea City should offer Mike van der Hoorn a new deal
According to a previous report from Wales Online during the summer transfer window, Swansea City had opened talks with centre-back Mike van der Hoorn over a new long-term deal to extend his stay at the Liberty Stadium.
The Swans triggered a twelve-month extension clause earlier in the year to keep the Dutchman at the club for the ongoing campaign but they once again face the risk of losing the 27-year-old for free next summer, with the defender out of contract in 2020.
There haven't been any further updates on how the contract negotiations between the club and the player have panned out but one would expect van der Hoorn to be in the news sooner rather than later.
The Swans could find themselves under pressure to make a call on the Dutchman's future if talks over a new deal fail to reach a positive end but the fans will definitely be praying for him to stay put in South Wales beyond the end of the ongoing campaign.
Despite losing the likes of Daniel James and Oliver McBurnie to Man United and Sheffield United in the summer, as well as Graham Potter, who departed the Liberty Stadium to take up the job at Brighton, Swansea City have made a wonderful start to their Championship campaign under the stewardship of new manager Steve Cooper.
The Swans currently sit 4th in the standings, level on points with Preston and just a point behind pace-setters Nottingham Forest and West Brom, and early signs suggest that the Welsh outfit could possibly push on for promotion back to the Premier League at the second time of asking.
The resurgence of Borja Baston and Andre Ayew, of course, has been one of the major positives from their campaign so far but a lot of credit should also go to the centre-back pairing of Joe Rodon and Mike van der Hoorn, with the latter establishing himself as one of the most commanding central defenders in the Championship.
The towering 6ft 3in Dutchman, who made his move to Swansea from Dutch giants Ajax in 2016, was one of the standout performers for the Swans in their 2017-18 campaign in the Premier League when the club faced relegation from the top-flight and he has started each of their next 57 games in the Championship till date.
Van der Hoorn was a mainstay under Potter, starting all 46 games for the Swans last season, and he is well on course to achieving the same feat this term as well, with the 27-year-old playing every minute of the club's campaign in the Championship this term after 11 rounds.
To that end, it doesn't require a rocket scientist to figure out that the former Ajax and FC Utrecht star has established himself as one of the key players at the Liberty Stadium and a new contract for him should be at the top of Swansea's priority list moving forward.
As per whoscored, Van Der Hoorn averages 4.2 aerial duels, 4.5 clearances and 4.6 successful long balls per game in the Championship this term to complement an impressive pass success rate of 85.1%.
Those figures are good enough regardless of the level at which is he currently performing, and it is imperative to say that the former Dutch U-21 international has been central to everything that Swansea City have achieved this season.
Apart from his obvious commanding nature as a ball-playing centre-back, Van der Hoorn is currently a leader at the back for the Swans and his ability to hold things together at the back has had a big positive influence on the growth of youngster Joe Rodon, who has also progressed by leaps and bounds under the management of Cooper.
The Swans have youngsters like Cian Harries and Brandon Cooper waiting for an opportunity on the wings but losing van der Hoorn would definitely be a massive step backwards as they look to mount a promotion surge to regain their top-flight status.

Why Swansea City should keep hold of Andre Ayew amidst interest
Suffice to say, Mike van der Hoorn continues to be an invaluable asset to the club regardless of which division they play in and with that in mind, Swansea City need to finalise a new contract for the 27-year-old at the earliest.

Q: style Property on JSX Element Not Updating Properly I have this component,
var ColorList = React.createClass({
  render: function(){
    var styles = {
      colorBG: {
        width: 100,
        height: 100,
        display: "inline-block",
        border: "1px solid black"
      }
    };
    var colors = [
      {color: "red", hex: "#E74C3C"},
      {color: "white", hex: "#ECF0F1"},
      {color: "blue", hex: "#3498DB"},
      {color: "yellow", hex: "#E7D171"},
      {color: "green", hex: "#7AE77C"}
    ];
    var colorList = colors.map(function(item){
      styles.colorBG.background = item.hex;
      return (
        {styles.colorBG.background}
      )
    });

    return (

        {colorList}

    )
  }
});

but what's interesting is that although the text in the element (styles.colorBG.background) is working properly, the background color of the element is just the last item in the array of colors.
Any ideas?
Fiddle Here

A: The problem arises because you are setting background property every time on the actual styles object. If you deep copy your styles object, it should work fine.
Here is my example with deep copy using React.addons.update. But you can use other deep copy methods too.
jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/wmg0eq18/
 var colorList = colors.map(function(item){
      // styles.colorBG.background = item.hex;
      var newStyle = React.addons.update(styles, {
          colorBG: {background:  {$set: item.hex}}
      });
      return {styles.colorBG.background};
 });

Plot: Sol Glass (Ferdinand Gottschalk) runs a clothing operation and while times are tough, he manages to remain profitable thanks to his satisfied clients that travel from all over to purchase his goods. The clothes are top of the line, but the clients also remain loyal because of some fringe benefits, beautiful young women supplied by Glass and known as customer girls. These women entertain the clients and do whatever is needed to make sure the sale is complete and the buyer heads back down happy. But Glass is convinced his current crop of customer girls has lost some luster, so he wants new girls and executive Tommy (Regis Toomey) offers up the steno pool as potential replacements for the service. While his idea wins over Glass, Tommy faces an unexpected issue when he realizes his own girlfriend Florence (Loretta Young), is not only in that same pool, but would likely be the most popular choice with clients. As this new plan unfolds and the girls are asked to do whatever it takes to please the clients, how will all of this impact Florence and her fellow steno pool girls?
Entertainment Value: A lot of pre-code movies are eye opening, scandalous pictures, but few can compete with She Had to Say Yes when it comes to the wild and sometimes jaw dropping side of early 30s cinema. This is pure melodrama, but is insanely fun and just needs to be seen to be believed, especially the finale that is likely to make you feel like your brain has melted a little. The men of She Had to Say Yes are not nice guys, to say the least, treating women like toys and engaging in some of the most ridiculous social antics ever. There is some romance here, but it is beyond toxic and the movie makes little effort to smooth out the rough spots, so don't expect easy answers or nice, tidy narrative elements. To me, that is why the movie is so interesting, as it doesn't play it safe and goes to some dark places. Perhaps a little too over top at times, but that is again part of the fun, as this is so outlandish, it is hard to believe you're seeing what you're seeing, which is a rare experience. I'm sure some will be shocked and offended, with good reason, but I think She Had to Say Yes is a wild ride that is well worth taking, an example of how outrageous pre-code cinema could be.
This one has Loretta Young in a central role and she rises to the challenge as usual, with a likable and sometimes wild performance. Those wild moments are immense fun, as Young embraces the out of character instances and goes a little over the top. I almost wish those happened more often, but Young still has a lot of charm, even if she isn't allowed to go off the deep end full time here. The leading men provide more than competent efforts, though they're given unlikable, sometimes nasty characters, so don't expect to fall for these chaps. Regis Toomey and Lyle Talbot are both rock solid, but Talbot is more of a standout and at least has flashes of romantic potential, tempered by bursts of ruthlessness. The cast also includes Ferdinand Gottschalk, Winnie Lightner, Helen Ware, and Hugh Herbert.
