Dying in Designer Signs With Hopeless Records
Hopeless Records have signed Chicago-based singer/rapper Dying in Designer and shared the new single, "Devil's Callin'."
Hopeless Records has announced their signing of Chicago-based singer/rapper dying in designer and shared a new single, "Devil's Callin'." Fans can watch the music video here: smarturl.it/DevilsCallinVideo.
"Devil's Callin'" is about saying you feel better about moving on from a past relationship, but in reality you don't. This song means a ton to me and you can actually feel my anger in the first 4 bars of the verse," dying in designer's Bobby O'Brien said. "Mentally, I was preparing myself to move on and it was the turning point in my relationship. I was lying to myself the whole time until it eventually became true."
For Chicago-based singer/rapper, dying in designer,2018 was the hardest year of his life. Fully-consumed by a toxic relationship that ultimately led to immense pain, heartbreak, depression and suicidal thoughts, vocalist Bobby O'Brien, used every ounce of pain and sorrow to create music that pulled him back into the world. The result is a lyrically gut-wrenching, honest, raw portrait of emotion backed by catchy melodies, cathartic 808s and breakdowns.
Hailing from the South Side of Chicago, dying in designer's early influences came from bands like Blink 182, Taking Back Sunday, and Silverstein. He played in several emo and hardcore bands throughout high school. At the same time, dying in designer became fully-engulfed in rap and the Chicago drill scene (Chief Keef, Lil Durk). Throwing down cyphers in the high school cafeteria and writing his own bars, dying in designer cemented his unique style, blending pop punk, emo, rap, and trap to create a melodic sound that is all his own.
This unique blend of styles shines through in "Devil's Callin',"the melodic, uplifting single that hits hard with a false bravado. Feeling broken, and anxious, dying in designer uses these feelings of pain, anger, and sadness as fuel toward something therapeutic and cathartic. On the meaning behind the song, dying in designer explains, "The song is about saying you feel better about moving on from a past relationship, when in reality, you really don't want to move on at all." Following that theme, "Gerard Way," deals with missing someone after they are completely out of your life, wrestling with the good and bad moments, and ultimately admitting that "you're not okay."
On "Lately" – the first track to hit over a million streams, dying in designer laments, "This was my worst fucking year. I could drown in my own tears." Stripping out all pretension and leaving raw vulnerability, dying in designer admits freely to dealing with suicidal thoughts.. "Lately was written like a suicide note. I was in a very toxic relationship, which put me in an extremely dark place," dying in designer shares. "I want to help people who feel the way I have felt. I want to be a role model to these broken kids around the world. I want these kids to know that it's okay to feel down sometimes – emotions are real and will always be universal. I want my music to save lives."

Do i need to show the original tourist visa before leaving philippines or a copy of it will do?
The travel agency from oman who arranged my tours sent me a copy of my tourist visa on my email and told me that my visa is deposited on the visa dept on oman airport and that i need to get that on arrival before passing to their immigration.
So i want to know, does a copy of my tourist visa let out of the philippines?
coz i dont see any prob leaving my country if they wont hehe!!
i just want to make sure since this is from my travel n tours.
I am working here in Oman. My daughter will visit me soon. I am worried in our immigration office at the airport since, she has only a xerox copy of Oman visit visa. I will deposit the visa in the police immigration office in Muscat Airport and I will send the deposit slip to my daughter through e-mail. Is she allowed to leave Manila with only duplicate copy of deposit slip in her position. She will get the original copy of her visit visa upon her arrival in Muscat.
I'll appreciate your kind consideration on my request.
If your going to Oman (regardless of the visa type) and you will use only a scan copy of the visa, the Immigration Officer in the Philippines will allow you to travel provided you have the other documents that will support the visa that you use. Like for working visa, you also have to present the OEC, contract, pdos etc. Once you arrived in Oman airport, you have to claim the original visa in the airport. It would be better if you will ask for a copy of a visa deposit slip from your sponsor.
I have an express visa valid for 21 days going to Muscat,Oman. I only have a photo copy of the Visa and a round trip ticket,the original visa will be deposited to Muscat airport, is there anything else i have to present in the airport before leaving. Please advise if there is anything required before leaving,I don't want to delay my travel.
you don't have to show ur original visa there. once u land in oman, u will get the original visa in hand from visa office at oman airport .
A company offered me a job in oman..and they issued an express visa which according to them was deposited in the point of entry.
I insisted that they should send me the original visa and supporting documents from their company(supporting letters) duly signed by the company representative and as much as possible signed by our consulate in Oman with authorized stamp.
Will the immigration people allow me to leave the country?
I am not sure about a visa for Oman but I seriously ask you to check with the Oman embassy as to this procedure as what your travel agency is doing is not a normal protocol.
I also doubt the Philippines immigration will let you leave the country with a copy of a visa.


Anyone know of a good source to get CV boots?
I don't need the entire axle, just the rubber boots.
Advance Autoparts have them - runs about $20. If you want to try an online retailer - www.rockauto.com has some really decent prices for these sort of parts. I think they have them for $7-$10, of course there is some shipping costs to factor in - but if you don't need them overnight - might end up saving a couple of bucks.

Dealer gets 35 years for moving heroin, cocaine aboard Amtrak trains
By Bill Dwyer for Chronicle Media — September 24, 2018
A California man was sentenced Sept. 11 to 35 years in prison for his role as head of an international drug-trafficking organization that moved "thousands of kilograms of narcotics" aboard Amtrak trains between Los Angeles and Chicago between 2010 and 2016.
Edgar Roque, 32, of Paramount, Calif., was the leader of an extensive network of drug dealers that moved heroin and cocaine from Mexico to Los Angeles, and then to Chicago via train.
Roque, who pleaded guilty earlier this year to drug and money laundering charges, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Virginia M. Kendall.
Federal authorities arrested Roque and 23 other individuals in October 2016 after a multi-year investigation called Operation Derailed. Over the course of that investigation, law enforcement agents confiscated more than 60 kilograms of cocaine, more than 30 kilograms of heroin, a kilogram of fentanyl, seven firearms and more than $1.8 million in cash.
The investigation was conducted under the umbrella of the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force, a partnership between federal, state and local law enforcement agencies. The principal mission of OCDETF is to identify, disrupt and dismantle the most serious drug trafficking and money laundering organizations.
Roque was responsible for importing the drugs from Mexico into California via numerous cartel-level suppliers. More than a dozen people in California, Illinois and elsewhere were involved.
After being picked up at Union Station in Chicago, the drugs were stored at numerous stash houses, including a home in the Gage Park neighborhood of Chicago and an apartment in northwest suburban Streamwood. After selling the drugs throughout the Chicago area, Roque or members of his crew would fly west on commercial airlines with the cash proceeds, often carrying $150,000 per person.
Several of the defendants have pleaded guilty and have been sentenced to prison terms between nearly six years and more than 20 years. Four others are awaiting sentencing this fall.
Amtrak employee Roy J. Griffin, 45, of Calumet City, admitted scheming to steal a package of cocaine that had arrived at Union Station. He was sentenced to 18 months in prison. Griffin and another man, Daniel Douglas, 43, of Blue Island, were charged with theft of goods from a railroad car and possession with the intent to distribute a controlled substance.

Brain Tincture quantity
BioPure Brain Tincture is a three-part formula made up of extracts from the leaves of fresh Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), water hyssop (Bacopa monnieri), and the Maidenhair tree (Ginkgo biloba). Each of these herbs has a long history of traditional use related to improvement of brain function, as well as many other benefits.*
Rosemary officinalis, native to the Mediterranean region, is familiar to us primarily as a culinary herb for flavoring soups, stews, roasts, and many Greek and Italian dishes. But in addition to its pungent taste and aroma, Rosemary possesses unique phytochemicals and essential oils with beneficial properties such as anti-oxidant, diuretic, and hepatoprotective. Rosemary is included in BioPure's Brain Tonic because it is associated with stimulating mental activity, assisting long-term memory, and anxiety.* Phenolic diterpenes present in Rosemary leaves promote anti-oxidant, chelation, and mechanisms that reduce the amount of amyloid beta formation and polymerization, and exert a protective effect on the neurons of the brain.*
Water hyssop (Bacopa monnieri) is a small creeping herb native to India and southeast Asia, that grows in water or wet areas. Bacopa has been used by Ayurveda medical practitioners for nearly 3000 years as a nootropic to improve memory, intellect, and the ability to concentrate, to energize the nervous system, and to reduce anxiety.* Trials performed in 2008 showed significant potential for safely enhancing cognitive performance among elderly humans. In India, Bacopa is often called "Brahmi", referring to an herb that improves the health of the brain–the 'center of creativity'.* A long list of bioactive phytochemicals has been identified in the aerial parts of Bacopa, enhancing beneficial processes such as radical-scavenging, metal chelation, improving impulse transmission between neurons, regenerating synapses, neuron repair, as well as increasing brain serotonin and serum calcium.*
Ginkgo biloba grows as a tall deciduous tree. It is famous for its distinctive fan-shaped leaves and its relatively unchanged genetics throughout its 250 million years of recorded history on this earth. Perhaps Ginkgo is most well-known for its ability to enhance cognitive abilities and improve circulation.* It is one of the most studied medicinal herbs, and is among the top nutritional supplements sold in the United States and Europe. Numerous phytoconstituents contribute to anti-oxidant and neuro-protective properties.* Its bioactive components can inhibit platelet aggregation and encourage blood flow in the microcapillaries of the brain.* For more details about Ginkgo biloba, see our stand-alone extract product.
These three extracts provide powerful potential as a brain tonic and have been proven safe, with little or no side effects, when used as directed and monitored by a healthcare practitioner. Care should be taken as other drug interactions and/or allergic reactions may be possible with any substance.

Dutchess County will mark the beginning of the Missouri Crisis, a pivotal moment in history that nearly provoked a civil war, during a Feb. 10 event.
The beginning of the Missouri Crisis, a pivotal moment in history that nearly provoked a civil war, had its roots right here in Dutchess County.
The county will mark the bicentennial of this historical event Sunday, Feb. 10, with a special presentation.
From February 1819 until March 1820, debates raged nationwide over whether Missouri should be taken into the Union as a free or a slave state. On Feb. 13, 1819, U.S. Rep. James Tallmadge Jr., a Town of Stanford native, introduced an amendment to admit Missouri as a free state, according to a release from Dutchess County Historian William P. Tatum III. Had Tallmadge's amendment passed, the balance of power between the southern and northern states would have shifted against slaveholders, he said. As a result, representatives from the South argued against the amendment, provoking an equally determined protest from abolitionist interests in the North.
John R. Van Atta, author of "Wolf by the Ears: The Missouri Crisis, 1819-1821," will be featured during Sunday's presentation in Bangall.
Atta will talk about the overlooked social, cultural and economic forces that gave the confrontation such urgency: "What led Tallmadge to provoke a nationwide crisis? Why did pent-up feelings explode in 1819 and not during earlier arguments over slavery? What did the debates reveal about the growth and influence of the slave power in the early republic?"
The program, sponsored by the Hudson Valley Federal Credit Union, will begin at 1:30 p.m. in the future home of Bengallworks, a co-working and community building space at 97 Hunns Lake Road, Stanfordville, adjacent to the Bangall Post Office. Merritt Bookstore will sell copies of Atta's book, which the author will be available to sign.
The program is a collaboration among the Mid-Hudson Antislavery History Project, the Stanford Historical Society and the Dutchess County Historian's Office.
Refreshments will be served and RSVPs are encourage to Tatum at wtatum@dutchessny.gov or by calling 845-486-2381.

Q: Loading image with AFNetworking - Resizing First of all, I'm using this AFNetworking method:
[imageView setImageWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://site.com/img.png"]];

1 - This method is asynchronous? It will cache the image in iPhone?
2 - How can I crop/resize this image? I have a 800x600 image in the URL, but my UIImageView is 400x400, I only want to have the url image cropped before being shown, to be the same ratio, like 600x600 (It's not needed to be 400x400, just same ratio). Like facebook app.

A: For Get Crop Image:
UIImage *croppedImg = nil;
CGRect cropRect = CGRectMake(AS YOu Need);
croppedImg = [self croppIngimageByImageName:self.imageView.image toRect:cropRect];

Use following method that return UIImage (as You want size of image)
- (UIImage *)croppIngimageByImageName:(UIImage *)imageToCrop toRect:(CGRect)rect
    {
        //CGRect CropRect = CGRectMake(rect.origin.x, rect.origin.y, rect.size.width, rect.size.height+15);

        CGImageRef imageRef = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect([imageToCrop CGImage], rect);
        UIImage *cropped = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:imageRef];
        CGImageRelease(imageRef);

        return cropped;
    }

Here you get Croped Image that return by above method;
OR RESIZING
And also Use following method for specific hight and width with image for Resizing UIImage:
+ (UIImage*)resizeImage:(UIImage*)image withWidth:(int)width withHeight:(int)height
{
    CGSize newSize = CGSizeMake(width, height);
    float widthRatio = newSize.width/image.size.width;
    float heightRatio = newSize.height/image.size.height;

    if(widthRatio > heightRatio)
    {
        newSize=CGSizeMake(image.size.width*heightRatio,image.size.height*heightRatio);
    }
    else
    {
        newSize=CGSizeMake(image.size.width*widthRatio,image.size.height*widthRatio);
    }

    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(newSize, NO, 0.0);
    [image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0,0,newSize.width,newSize.height)];
    UIImage* newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    return newImage;
}

This method return NewImage, with specific size that you want.

A: The resizing has been answered elsewhere, but to your first question:

This method is asynchronous?

Yes, it is asynchronous. You can use the callback blocks if you want to process the image, e.g.:
[imageView setImageWithURLRequest:request
                 placeholderImage:nil
                          success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, UIImage *image) {

                              // do image resize here

                              // then set image view

                              imageView.image = image;
                          }
                         failure:nil];

You then ask:

It will cache the image in iPhone?

If you're just looking to cache in memory for performance reasons, then the answer is an unequivocal yes. It employs a NSCache (which will be emptied upon memory pressure). As an aside, it will cache the image as retrieved, not reflecting any resizing you do after the fact.
If you're looking to cache in persistent storage (i.e. a cache that will persist even if you terminate app and restart it), that question is a little less clear. AFNetworking claims to support disk caching through its use of NSURLCache, but I have had problems getting that to work on iOS. If you need persistent storage caching, I might suggest a variety of other UIImageView categories, such as SDWebImage.
Anyway, for the AFNetworking official line on caching, I might refer you to the Caching discussion in the AFNetworking FAQ.

If you want an activity indicator view, you can:
UIActivityIndicatorView *activityIndicatorView = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc] initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleGray];
activityIndicatorView.center = self.imageView.center;
[self.view addSubview:activityIndicatorView];
[activityIndicatorView startAnimating];

[imageView setImageWithURLRequest:request
                 placeholderImage:nil
                          success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, UIImage *image) {

                              [activityIndicatorView removeFromSuperview];

                              // do image resize here

                              // then set image view

                              imageView.image = image;
                          }
                          failure:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error) {
                              [activityIndicatorView removeFromSuperview];

                              // do any other error handling you want here
                          }];

A: From AFNetworking v.2.0 there's AFCoreImageSerializer

The response serializer used to create an image representation from the server response and response data. By default, this is an instance of AFImageResponseSerializer
Subclasses of AFImageResponseSerializer could be used to perform post-processing, such as color correction, face detection, or other effects.

You can use this to crop the image before setting to UIImageView.

A: I have a code sample to add to Hemang's answer.
This is what AFImageResponseSerializer is for. Just change the image scale to match the image scale you're retrieving.
AFImageResponseSerializer *imageResponseSerializer = [self.avatarImageView imageResponseSerializer];
    [imageResponseSerializer setImageScale:1.0];

TSB Identifies Deficiencies with Aircraft Landing in Deteriorating Weather Conditions
Dec. 14, 2007, Gatineau, Que. - The TSB has released its final report into the runway overrun of an Air France Airbus A340 at Toronto's Lester B. Pearson International Airport on Aug. 2, 2005.
Dec. 14, 2007, Gatineau, Que. – The Transportation Safety
Board of Canada (TSB) has released its final report (A05H0002) into
the runway overrun of an Air France Airbus A340 at Toronto/Lester B.
Pearson International Airport, Ontario, on August 2, 2005.
Since the Air France accident in Toronto, 10 large aircraft have
gone off runways around the world in bad weather. "This is an
unacceptable risk," said Wendy Tadros, Chair of the TSB. She went on to
add, "We believe more must be done to ensure aircraft will always touch
down safely so passengers don't get hurt. That is why the TSB is making
seven recommendations today."
The first five recommendations focus on crews and the need for
mandatory standards, training, and procedures. The TSB is also making
two recommendations aimed at reducing the risk of injury following an
On August 2, 2005, the Airbus A340-313 departed Paris, France, as
Flight 358, bound for Toronto. There were 297 passengers and 12 crew
members on board. The aircraft approached Toronto in a severe and
rapidly changing thunderstorm with shifting winds and limited
visibility. It came in too high and too fast. Touching down almost
halfway along the wet and slippery runway, it simply ran out of room.
The TSB is an independent agency that investigates marine, pipeline,
railway and aviation transportation occurrences. Its sole aim is the
advancement of transportation safety. It is not the function of the
Board to assign fault or determine civil or criminal liability.

Got some stuff you want to fix/mess around with in the PC version of No Man's Sky? Mods for the game are now out, letting you adjust everything from the game's visuals to your suit's audio files.
Here are some of the best ones released so far on Video Game Mods. Note that there aren't polished custom installers for these yet (you can try a rough one here though); you'll need to be manually dropping in (and in some cases editing) files yourself to get most of them working.
Got it? OK let's roll.
Oh God thank you. This gets rid of the cursor's need to have you hold it down just to select menu options. Now it's just a click and you're done.
Just be careful with it; while it was stupid having to wait for basic options clicks, it's now a lot easier to sell important stuff you didn't mean to sell.
For some people, like myself, despite telling the game to render at a certain resolution, it goes and does something else. This will help you get around that by letting you manually scale the game's resolution.
It's tricky to get working though, so be warned before messing around with your files. And if you still want to mess? Use this.
Does as advertised. Gets rid of the HUD with a single press of a button. Useful if you want to be a little more immersed. Very useful if you want to take some pretty screenshots without having to go into the menu.
If you want to just screw around with the game without worrying about cash, health or materials, here's a trainer where you can just add all that stuff for free.
75% is not low. It's not even close.
This mod will silence that (and other similar) audio warnings the game gives you.
I kinda like them, but the game's use of visual effects isn't for everyone. If you'd rather the lighting be a little more natural, this will get rid of things like chromatic aberration and artificial scan lines.
This replaces the endless "Units received" "Units received" "Units received" with Rick Sanchez's "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub". Will probably get just as annoying eventually, but hey, at least its thematically correct with the game's setting.

2015 Albums of the Year (Numbers 20-11)
And on it goes:
20. Julien Baker - Sprained Ankle
This record really blew me away this year. As intimate as it possibly can be, Sprained Ankle is wry, witty, and full of raw emotion. You sense she has lived deeply inside these songs, inhabiting them like a second skin.
19. Beach House - Thank Your Lucky Stars
Beach House surprised everyone with two albums and they couldn't be any more different. Depression Cherry, to me, was a droning, one note, beige mess of songs that made me feel that Beach House had lost their mind. Thank Your Lucky Stars feels like a mea culpa, and a welcome return to form.
18. Wolf Alice - My Love Is Cool
This record throws together alt-rock, indie pop, shoegaze, Britpop, and a hundred other genres together in a mix that shouldn't work, but just keeps finding ways to creep back into your psyche.
17. Everything Everything - Get To Heaven
As I mentioned in my top songs countdown, Everything Everything are weird. Very weird. When I play this record for others, I get lots of head scratching. You either get them or you don't. I, for one, am very glad I get them.
16. Drake - If You're Reading This It's Too Late
If You're Reading This It's Too Late, is a dark, insular record that has no real "singles," but collectively shows Drake at the height of his powers.
15. Years & Years - Communion
Perfect blend of pop smarts, R&B sass, and dance floor power.
13. Young Galaxy - Falsework
The quirky Canadians once again work with producer Dan Lissvik, creating a sublime selection of arty synthpop.
12. Little Boots - Working Girl
While probably too arch and distant to be fully embraced by Top 40 radio, Little Boots' record Working Girl is one of the most hook filled alnbum recent memory. She is a jewel just waiting to be discovered.
11. Jamie xx - In Colour
Eclectic and thoroughly entertaining collection of tracks that hit on almost all of Jamie xx's influences.

Introducing a new book: DECEMBER 2015 MASSACRE OF SHIITES IN NIGERIA: Survivors Accounts
The Struggle Online January 22, 2020 News
By Ibrahim Musa
December 12th to 14th, 2015 will pass in the annals of Nigerian history as one of the darkest weekends, when a unit of the Nigerian Army was sent to exterminate the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, its structures and leadership. By the time the operation was over in the early morning hours of December the 14th, over a thousand unarmed civilians were killed with some burned in the most gruesome manner.
This is not new to most of those following the news from Nigeria for the past four years, mostly due to the agitation by the surviving members of the Islamic Movement for the freedom of their leader, Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, who was also severally shot before arrest and subsequent detention incommunicado. This later struggle has also cost more lives of those involved because of the use of live ammunition by security agents sent to stop the agitators.
However, what this book adds is a new unique narrations of what actually happened on those dark days of 12-14th December, 2015 as told by the survivors of the heinous Zaria massacre as it became known.
This book *"DECEMBER 2015 MASSACRE OF SHIITES IN NIGERIA: Survivors Accounts"* sets out to tell the world this horrible massacre from the horse's mouth.
A flip through the pages of the book reveals the accounts of 24 survivors of the massacre by the Nigerian Army, starting from the incarcerated leader of the Islamic Movement, Sheikh Ibraheem Yaqoub Zakzaky himself.
These testimonies by survivors was first published and made available for Hausa audience. This vivid translation has been rewritten and rendered into story format, which keeps the reader engaged till the end of the stories.
Another compelling feature of the book is the inclusion of the testimony the Secretary to the state government (SSG) of Kaduna gave the Judicial Commission of Inquiry (JCI) that was set up by the same government on the crisis. Also included is a brief report the reputable human rights group, Amnesty International brought out after an extensive but meticulous field investigation on the matter. This goes to massively corroborate the accounts of the survivors written in the book.
Finally, as the author of the book Ibrahim Musa, a veteran journalist said, the aim of the book is to bridge the communication gap that has existed between members of the Movement and Nigerian public in particular and the international community in general over the war crimes committed by the Nigerian Military in Zaria, Kaduna state, I think it will go a long way in doing just that.

Home Fossils New finding on origin of avian predentary in Mesozoic birds
New finding on origin of avian predentary in Mesozoic birds
The pink arrow points to the predentary and the blue arrow points to the upper portion of the jaw, which has no teeth. Together, they may have been covered by a keratinous beak, and the predentary was most likely mobile Credit: IVPP
The predentary bone is one of the most enigmatic skeletal elements in avian evolution. Located at the tip of the lower jaw, this bone is absent in more primitive birds and in living birds; it is thought to have been lost during evolution. For over 30 years, the origin and function of the avian predentary has remained mysterious.
Now, however, Alida Bailleul, LI Zhiheng, Jingmai O"Connor and ZHOU Zhonghe from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology (IVPP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have made significant progress towards solving this long-standing mystery. Their findings were published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) on November 18.
Using a battery of analytical methods, the team, led by Dr. Bailleul, presents strong evidence that the avian predentary was covered by a keratinous beak—a horny sheath that covers the bones of the rostrum in all living birds, all of which are edentulous and have beaks. It also provides evidence the predentary was proprioceptive, i.e., it was able to detect external mechanical stimuli; and was mobile—thus representing a now extinct form of cranial kinesis.
Cranial kinesis occurs when joints are able to move within the skull—mainly between the upper jaw and the braincase. This feature is widespread in living birds; however, it is thought to be mostly absent in Mesozoic birds.
Based on her examination of the fossilized tissues of the predentary and other jaw elements of Yanornis martini from the Jehol Biota, Dr. Bailleul identified a specific type of cartilage inside the joint between the predentary and dentary that strongly suggests some movement between these elements.

The team noticed that the predentary is only found in ornithuromorphs that have teeth. However, the tip of the premaxilla—the bone of the upper bill that would have occluded with the predentary—is without teeth. This suggests that the tip of the upper jaw, like the predentary, was also covered with a keratinous beak.
The tiny beak at the tip of the skull, combined with the sensitive and mobile predentary bone and teeth that were most likely also proprioceptive, represents a unique feeding adaptation that allowed greater dexterity when manipulating food. Although bizarre and now extinct, this unique feeding apparatus persisted in the ornithuromorph clade for at least 58 million years, from the Early to the Late Cretaceous.
Using information from the fossilized tissues and preexisting data on the embryology of living birds, the team also formulated a hypothesis regarding the origin of this bone, suggesting it is a sesamoid, similar to the human knee cap. Identification as a sesamoid means this bone is a novel skeletal innovation unique to one lineage of ornithuromorphs, and that it did not arise from a preexisting skull bone.
Although additional research on fossils birds (and also extant birds) is required to confirm some of these hypotheses, the predentary is such a small bone that it is only rarely preserved, thus making it very difficult—if not impossible—to find specimens that can shed light on the remaining pieces of this mystery.

Clostridium perfringens Food Poisoning
Larry M. Bush
, MD, FACP, Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine, Florida Atlantic University;

, MD, FACP, Wellington Regional Medical Center
Last full review/revision May 2021| Content last modified May 2021
Clostridium perfringens food poisoning is acute gastroenteritis caused by ingestion of contaminated food. Symptoms are watery diarrhea and abdominal cramps. Diagnosis is by identifying C. perfringens in contaminated food or in stool. Treatment is supportive.
(See also Overview of Anaerobic Bacteria and Overview of Clostridial Infections.)
C. perfringens food poisoning is usually a mild clostridial infection.
C. perfringens is widely distributed in feces, soil, air, and water. Contaminated meat has caused many outbreaks. C. perfringens spores sometimes survive cooking; they can germinate and multiply, resulting in large numbers of bacteria when cooked meat that is contaminated with C. perfringens is left at room temperature or even up to 60° C (140° F, as on a warming table) for a period of time. Outbreaks typically occur in commercial establishments and rarely at home.
Once inside the gastrointestinal tract, C. perfringens produces an enterotoxin that acts on the small bowel. Only C. perfringens type A has been definitively linked to this food poisoning syndrome.
Mild gastroenteritis is most common, with onset of symptoms 6 to 24 hours after ingestion of contaminated food. The most common symptoms are watery diarrhea and abdominal cramps. Vomiting and fever are unusual. Symptoms typically resolve within 24 hours; severe or fatal cases rarely occur.
Diagnosis of Clostridium perfringens Food Poisoning
Identification of organisms in food or stool or of enterotoxin in stool
Diagnosis of C. perfringens food poisoning is based on epidemiologic evidence and isolation of large numbers of organisms from contaminated food or from stools of affected people or on direct identification of enterotoxin in stool samples.
Treatment of Clostridium perfringens Food Poisoning
Treatment of C. perfringens food poisoning is supportive; antibiotics are not given.
To prevent disease, people should promptly refrigerate leftover cooked meat and reheat it thoroughly (internal temperature, 75° C) before serving.

In 2010, DC Comics started a new, ongoing comic book series that retells the earliest adventures and origins of their greatest heroes. This new series is called Earth-One. As of right now, four character story lines have been released: Superman, Batman, Teen Titans, and Wonder Woman. There are plans to add the Flash and Aquaman at a later date.
Overall, the Earth-One comics have peaked interest and received decent reviews. The series isn't hailed as the greatest series ever or receiving the highest marks of praise, yet I still think there's merit and worth to the series. There are many elements that make Earth-One stand out in my mind as a worthwhile comic book series to read. Here's why.
The point of Earth-One was to create the origin stories of well-known heroes but with a 21st-century audience in mind. This gives the series an edge that other comic books don't have. Heroes like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman have been around for a long time. There are decades worth of story arcs already created, read, re-read, and re-created. While relaunching origin stories is not a new concept, giving readers a 21st-century feel to the stories is. It helps the readers connect to the characters and world more than a story line from the 1930s ever could.
One recurring point of praise that is evident for all four released story lines is the artwork. The artwork of Earth-One, all done by different artists, is gorgeous. These comics show-off the 21st-century technology for artists. The color palettes for each hero is carefully chosen and beautifully visualized. I recently finished the first volume for the Wonder Woman arc, and I was mesmerized by the dazzling colors of the Amazon ladies on Paradise Island. The artwork, if anything, is a high point for Earth-One.
I'll admit there are predictable moments when it comes to the comics. It's hard to retell a well-known origin story without the reader knowing some of what will happen. Of course Superman will make the right decision, Wonder Woman will come to Earth, Bruce Wayne will become Batman, and the Teen Titans will team-up to become...well, the Teen Titans. There is predictability, but at the same time, there are also some excellent plot twists. Superman: Earth One has probably one of the best, well-crafted plot twists, which left the end of the three volume arc open for more. Batman: Earth One shook things up in Gotham in much the same way. I promise you there won't be total disappointment when reading these if you enjoy a few unique changes to the well-known stories.
For the most part, these comics retell the known story arcs of the characters. Kal-El lands on Earth and is found by the Kents after Kyrpton exploded. Bruce Wayne becomes Batman. Wonder Woman is an Amazonian warrior princess. The Teen Titans are teen superheroes. However, there are some differences with the stories. These characters aren't necessarily heroic right away. The series shows their journey to becoming the heroes we know. They have to learn who they are and how they can be heroes.
"For a handful of heroes, Earth-1 is that proverbial unknown of the Multiverse. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and the Teen Titans may be household names to us, but rest assured, these are not the seasoned veterans with storied histories we've come to know and love.
This makes their stories different than the normal. Clark Kent doesn't immediately go to the Daily Planet for a job, allowing him to explore options of who he could be and who he chooses to be. Bruce Wayne is related to both the Waynes and the Arkhams, which give his story line a richer connection to the roots of Gotham City. Wonder Woman is put on trial by her Amazonian comrades, which places her in a different position than the revered and powerful victor she's established herself as. The Teen Titans have various elements tying them together, which gives them shared purpose to defeating their enemies. It's intriguing to see well-known heroes with slight differences in their story lines, giving us something old yet something new.
The potential for the comics is high. The point of it being called "Earth-One" is so it's distinguishable from every other comic story arc in existence. All of the arcs take place in a new Earth, which allows the series freedom from continuity errors. (This ties into the multiverse!) Basically, anything can happen. In addition, this is only the beginning of retelling character story arcs. They've already planned to add two more. In the future, we can probably expect them to add more characters--like Green Lantern, Shazam, Martian Manhunter, and Black Canary. (Seriously, DC, give me a Black Canary retelling!) There's potential to revisit all the major, and even minor, heroes of the DC Comics world. This will give the heroes a fresh story with vivid illustrations and interesting story lines for a new audience. This is what Earth-One is all about.
Have you read any Earth-One comics yet? Which heroes' origins would you like DC to revisit in the future?


"You can't just stand there like a statue." Elvis' response to accusations of vulgarity when he was just launching his career.
Earlier this week I found out that NPR chose The Orphanmaster as one of the six best historical fiction titles of 2012.
Yes! In the same league with Hilary Mantel, incredible.
Now, "rip-roaring," that's not standing there like a statue.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was fabulous for me to spend time in that world, and I'm glad you enjoyed it too.
I asked for The Orphanmaster for Christmas because it was on the NPR list. What an amazing job you did of bringing this setting to life. And your characters–so carefully drawn, and always true. I loved Blandine and Edward. All the other players were equally as fascinating–if not as likable! A wonderful love story and very satisfying ending. Thank you! Hope you're working on a new book.
I agree with NPR. However, I don't think your book, when plugged into an amplifier, would sound that much like Elvis.

The St. Louis Post briefly mentions the Stem Cell Divide:
STEM CELL NEUTRAL: While the embryonic stem cell controversy was galvanizing Missouri, three St. Louis women were documenting it all — the hearings, the legislative sessions, speeches, debates, rallies and the Amendment 2 campaign. Those women — Barbara Langsam Shuman, Jill Mirowitz Mogil and Sharon Harris Pollack — have produced and directed "The Stem Cell Divide," based on their documentation. The film will première at the Tivoli Theatre as part of the St. Louis International Film Festival on Nov. 16, beginning at 2 p.m. "The Stem Cell Divide" is the first documentary produced by the women, who are partners in Triumph Documentaries. In their other lives, Shuman is a journalist and PR exec, Mogil is an optometrist, and Pollack is a biologist and science writer. Among those interviewed or seen in the film: former Sen. John Danforth; Dr. William Danforth; John Dubinsky; Mark Wrighton; former St. Louis Archbishop Raymond Burke; Alan Keyes; Phyllis Schlafly; state senators Chris Koster and Matt Bartle; Dr. Steven Teitelbaum; and Dr. Richard Chole.
It looks like they got a good group of people in there representing our side. Advance tickets are on sale now and can be purchased online at Landmark Theaters.

Dredging suit uphill battle for St. Johns River watchdog, but don't rule out more protections
The St. Johns Riverkeeper faces a tough battle as it prepares to file a federal lawsuit against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers over controversial plans to dredge the river, a $766 million project that has provoked a passionate and years-long debate between business leaders and environmental advocates that appears to have finally crested this past week.
Courts give government agencies broad deference in legal challenges, meaning even a formidable case showing that the Army Corps failed to build adequate environmental protections into its plans to deepen the Jacksonville Port Authority's shipping channel from 40 feet to 47 feet may not be enough to sway courts.
"Whenever you're fighting the government, it's an uphill battle," said Adam Babich, a professor at Tulane Law School and director of the university's Environmental Law Clinic. "There's always a legal presumption that the government has acted lawfully."
But similar cases in Miami and Savannah also show that judges and government agencies are sometimes willing to meet environmental advocates halfway, offering millions of dollars for more mitigation work in mediation sessions to avoid costly - and time-consuming - court battles.
"If you're lucky, you have a riverkeeper who is helping protect you, because you're not as protected as you think you are," said Savannah Riverkeeper Tonya Bonitatibus, whose organization was part of a federal lawsuit against the Army Corps over the Savannah dredging project that ended in a 2013 settlement granting more mitigation work.
In Miami, environmental advocates won an important early battle over mitigation in the PortMiami dredging project - which began in late 2013 and is nearly complete - which secured more mitigation work than initially planned.
Even with those protections, however, deepening has caused more environmental damage than anticipated, and the Miami Waterkeeper is moving forward with a federal lawsuit that it hopes will hold the Army Corps accountable for the damage - particularly to prized offshore coral reefs that were smothered by falling plumes of sediment kicked up by dredging.
Indeed, the Miami case offers promise and peril for the St. Johns Riverkeeper.
"We want others to learn from what happened here to make sure it's done better in the future," said Miami Waterkeeper Rachel Silverstein. "It's, I think, up to citizen groups and up to the enforcement agencies to make sure all the rules are followed. … Too often corners are cut and we lose resources that should be protected."
The St. Johns Riverkeeper filed notice last week with a top U.S. Army official that it intends to file a lawsuit within 60 days against the Army Corps, a requirement for a legal challenge of this kind.
The group alleges that the Army Corps essentially failed to adequately review a wide-ranging series of issues with dredging, ranging from long-disputed claims about the potential environmental harm of deepening to the economic benefits of the project. Business leaders at the JAX Chamber - as well as City Hall and JaxPort - had hoped an agreement struck with the Riverkeeper earlier this year would be enough to avoid a lawsuit. But, citing a lack of progress on the agreement's key term, the chamber announced Friday it was pulling out of the truce. The Riverkeeper is moving forward with its lawsuit.
CORPS RESPONSE
Either way, the Army Corps says the impending lawsuit will not halt its plans to move ahead with the project.
"This congressionally authorized project was extensively studied and modeled, and rigorously peer-reviewed by internal and external experts," said corps project manager Jason Harrah in a written statement. "Based on certified Corps of Engineers models and other relevant information, deepening the St. Johns River is projected to have a positive economic benefit and only minor environmental effects. We're confident the risk of unforeseen environmental impact is extremely low, and we will monitor and reevaluate, if appropriate, as new information becomes available."
The Army Corps can trace its origins back to the American Revolution, and it has played a major and unique role in designing, building and maintaining the nation's major coastal and flood-control infrastructure. But controversy in recent years - from New Orleans levee failures in Hurricane Katrina to less-publicized events like the Miami coral reef damage - has eroded some environmental advocates' trust in the federal agency's ability or willingness to foresee the consequences of its actions.
"The corps feels like they don't have to necessarily follow all the rules, and they're quite good at it," Silverstein said.
TOUGH FIGHT
The Riverkeeper will attempt to poke holes in the Army Corps' case, but legal precedent strongly favors government agencies. And that advantage means the Riverkeeper will likely have to do more than present a sound argument that potential environmental impacts have been overlooked.
"If you get into a battle of experts … courts are more likely than not going to defer to the agency," said Blake Hudson, a Louisiana State University Law Center professor of environmental and energy law. "It really has to be an egregious error."
"[The Riverkeeper] would have to come up with some documentation that would pretty clearly indicate the agency was acting arbitrarily. And it's hard to do that."
The Army Corps, based on its scientific modeling, has concluded the dredging would have minimal environmental impact on the river.
Right now, the Army Corps' mitigation efforts amount to setting aside $2.9 million to buy conservation land; and about $5 million to monitor environmental conditions before, during and one year after the project is completed. JaxPort committed an additional $30 million for monitoring for up to 10 years after the project's completion.
One obstacle the Riverkeeper will face is questioning the Army Corps' scientific model without presenting a rigorously peer-reviewed model of its own.
"If we were a multimillion-dollar agency, we would have our own best model," said St. Johns Riverkeeper Lisa Rinaman, who heads the organization. "We, as a citizens group, can't redo the corps' model. We can analyze it."
A long-standing, major concern among environmental advocates is that deepening the river by 7 feet will increase salinity levels more significantly than the Army Corps' model recognizes, which could jeopardize important sea grasses and wetlands.
The river flows north into the Atlantic Ocean, but tidal movements push saltwater back into the river. River advocates fear that deepening - skeptics sometimes call it the "deep dredge" - will, as a simple matter of physics, push many more millions of gallons of saltwater further into historically freshwater segments of the river.
And they point to historical data which show that a recent dredge which began in 2003 and wrapped up in 2010 - which deepened about 5 miles of the harbor from 38 to 40 feet - affected salinity levels.
The Riverkeeper's lawsuit will not attempt to stop the project. Instead, the only available remedy is more mitigation work. To that end, Rinaman said the suit will push for options that could offset potential damage, including a proposal to restore the river's largest tributary, the Ocklawaha River, by breaching the Rodman Dam in Putnam County.
Rinaman said that would infuse fresh water from the Ocklawaha back into the St. Johns River, offsetting salinity increases.
Officials in the federal Forest Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service have written the Army Corps with concerns about the mitigation plans and expressed interest in including Ocklawaha River restoration as an option.
The Army Corps has shown a willingness to negotiate to avoid litigation.
In Savannah, the Army Corps and the Georgia Ports Authority agreed to a settlement with the Savannah Riverkeeper and other plaintiffs during mediations related to a federal lawsuit. Under the April 2013 settlement, the Army Corps agreed to provide more environmental monitoring, and the Georgia Ports Authority provided millions of dollars for conservation projects and transferred 2,000 acres of marsh to South Carolina - the river runs between the two states.
The agreement allowed dredging to move forward, while also giving river watchdogs a victory. The federal judge handling the case, Richard Gergel, wrote that the outcome was what he had been hoping for.
"The complexity of the factual and legal issues arising out of the (dredging project) suggested that the parties would likely be entangled in protracted, divisive and costly litigation," he wrote in accepting the mediation agreement. "In an effort to explore a more efficient and effective means to address these complicated issues, the court ordered early mediation in this matter …"
Last year, the Army Corps negotiated with the Miami Waterkeeper after the organization filed for an emergency injunction to stop the dredging as offshore coral reefs were being damaged. The Army Corps agreed to pay more than $400,000 to move affected coral reefs from the project and it committed that it would require its contractor to use "best management practices" to limit environmental damage stemming from the deepening.
Asked if the Riverkeeper would be open to mediation talks with the Army Corps, Rinaman said, "We are open to any process that leads to further protection of the St. Johns River."
Hudson, the LSU law professor, said mediation is one option that may provide the Riverkeeper with some relief.
"There may be utility in suing even if they know their chances winning in court are low because it may put them in mediation," he said.

Exclusive Doctor Strange Images Show Off The Sorcerer Supreme And Rachel McAdams' Key Character
By Sean O'Connell
With weeks to go before Marvel unleashes its fourteenth feature film, Doctor Strange, on a movie-going audience, we still have a lot of unanswered questions about what is in store. We know that the movie will serve as an origin story for Dr. Stephen Strange, a renowned neurosurgeon whose precious hands are damaged beyond repair in an automobile accident. Pushed to scour the globe for a cure, Strange encounters the mystical arts, under the tutelage of The Ancient One (Tilda Swinton), and embarks down a totally different path.
But beyond the trailers, we haven't seen a lot about the side characters that will help Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) on his mysterious journey. The first one I have to share, though, showcases the film's use of exotic locations. The Marvel movies have taken audiences to unique corners of the globe, but never before have we seen Nepal until now:
When Stephen Strange heads to Nepal, he'll encounter the Kamar-Taj, a training dojo of The Ancient One. Strange will be recruited by powerful sorcerer Mordo (Ejiofor), who senses potential in the wounded man. And as we saw in the trailers, the Ancient One and Mordo will need to break down Strange's mental barriers to explain to him that there are many different ways to see the world... and no one way is absolutely correct.
While on set, we were able to watch Benedict Cumberbatch film a scene with Chiwetel Ejiofor and Tilda Swinton where he fell through a portal and landed at their feet, covered in snow. I'm thinking the above photo shows us what is happening right before this scene plays out, as Strange is still in his "novice" training robes. Below, we have a better look at Mordo, an ally of Strange in this universe.
But Stephen Strange's journey isn't limited to Nepal. Read on to see what else we can reveal.
Rachel McAdams plays Christine Palmer in the upcoming Doctor Strange movie, and we are trying to put together what we know about her role. We've seen her looking over a bed that we assumed contained Stephen Strange after his car accident, and we have seen her sitting bedside while Strange is bruised and bandaged in bed. But the above photo raises very interesting questions. We see Strange and Palmer together in the hospital where she works... but he is definitely wearing his sorcerer garb, with the Eye of Agamotto -- but not his signature red cloak. Where is it? And is Christine now aware that the neurosurgeon is suddenly a superhero?
Along with this exclusive new look, McAdams, also got her own poster, which makes us think that she's a much bigger player in this movie than we have assumed.
She's not the only one to get a poster. Doctor Strange, himself, got a similar one sheet, as did Benedict Wong's character, Wong. Read on!
Do you want to hang any of these on your wall? They are trippy as hell, and reminiscent of Inception... but also inspired by those mind-boggling Steve Ditko artworks from the 1960s and '70s.
Doctor Strange opens in theaters on November 4. Read CinemaBlend all week for the rest of our exclusive set visit coverage.

HEXTALL BROTHERS SHINE IN KICKER WIN OVER POWELL RIVER
by CVKickers | Feb 8, 2012 | Uncategorized | 0 comments
Two try scorer Andrew Hextall on a rampaging run against the Black Sheep in a recent match.
The Hextall brothers, Steve and Andrew, scored two tries apiece as they helped the AFC Construction Comox Valley Kickers notch a 49-10 win over Powell River last Sunday as the locals recorded their second win of the Spring season.
Perhaps because of the ferry ride across the Strait of Georgia, in the early part of the game, the Kickers experienced difficulty finding any flow to their game, but once they found their stride, about twenty minutes into the match, the tries kept coming. As well as the four scored by the Hextall brothers, captain Eli Cummins, prop Leigh Burley, lock Jeremy Grootendorst, and wings Tim Beggs — his second in as many games — and Pieter Voster also scored tries, with Cummins adding two conversions. The half-time score stood at 20-3.
Steve Hextall's effort marked his fifteenth and sixteenth tries of the season and for younger brother, Andrew, his fifth and sixth as the two continue to play outstanding rugby for the Kickers. Both brothers learned their rugby in England and in their three years living in the Valley have set the standard for a "full-on", committed approach to every match. Andrew, who plays flanker or lock, is constantly the first player to every breakdown and when he gets the ball in his hands heads in only one direction – right for the try line. Steve does much the same from his centre position but often finds more room to run because by the time he gets the ball he has a less cluttered field of play in which to run. Nevertheless, his determination and hard-running leaves opposition players unable to contain him.
"The Hextall brothers are a great asset to the club," praised coach Aaron L'Arrivee. "They always offer a threat to the opposition and they lead their fellow players by example."
"Sunday's result doesn't tell the whole story. Powell River played a tough game against us and more than once threatened our line. In fact, toward the end of the game they mounted a persistent attack that saw them score their only try. Full credit to the Hextalls, but I would also like to add that newcomers Logan Buchanan and Damian Kudoba played particularly well."
The Kickers take on Castaway-Wanderers next Sunday at Village Park in Cumberland: 1 p.m. kick-off.
The Club gratefully acknowledges our sponsors: A.F.C. Construction, Investors Group, Central Rentals, Wedler Engineering and Continual Palingenesis - Social Media Solutions, without whose support rugby would not continue to flourish in the Comox Valley.

Barreling through the high-visibility, high-tech exhibits on the TED2019 circuit, you'd be forgiven for mistaking The Data Garden for just another chillout zone, with its oasis of potted houseplants and people lying draped, spaced out, across bean bags. Yet an arresting sound beckons from this unassuming island – a soothing patter of gently percussive gongs, like a harmonious array of meditation bowls or a gamelan, with a variety of textures and tones.
Nothing unusual here – except that if you look closely, the plants have white sensors attached to the leaves, wired into speakers. Wait – is this music coming from the plants?
It is. "We're listening to Data Garden Quartet – a quartet of plants all playing music together," says Los Angeles-based sound artist Joe Patitucci. Each plant is fitted with a MIDI Sprout, a device invented by Patitucci and partner Jon Shapiro that translates plant biofeedback into sounds. The white sensors, it turns out, are electrical probes that send a 4.5 volt signal through the plant to measure variations in the plant's conductivity, which changes according to the amount of water moving through it.
Patitucci conceived the idea of Data Garden Quartet in 2012 out of a sense of exploration as a musician. "I'd hear about people who could reached this flow state, where it was like universe was expressing itself through them. I was never able to get to that state – but I'd get my inspiration by going out into nature and bringing the feeling back into the studio and then composing." So rather than making his body the channel – "instead of expressing itself through my body on my fingertips on a guitar" – Patitucci cut the middleman and wired his source of inspiration directly into the instrument, working with an engineer. Meanwhile, Patitucci designed the sound set – a palette from which the plant selects every single note in real time.
"Big influences are Brian Eno, generative ambient music in general, and the plant biofeedback experiments of the 1970s, and cellular automata – the mathematical principle that simple rule sets expressed over time can become complex systems," says Patitucci.
Inevitably, demand snowballed to ordinary consumers who wanted MIDI Sprout in their home – in their yoga class, meditation studios, and so on. For them, MIDI Sprout is now available as an iOS app with a custom-made sound palette that includes harp, flute, and bass. Now anyone can turn a houseplant into an ambient music generator.
As for the question I know is burning in readers' minds: "Can I put a MIDI Sprout on my cat?" The answer is here.
If you haven't heard of the blockbuster megahit Crazy Rich Asians, then, well, it's possible you're living under a large rock. But whether or not you saw it, the film's director, Jon M. Chu, has a TED Talk that goes far beyond the movie.
Speaking onstage at TED2019, Chu reflects on the importance of representation onscreen and the experiences that propelled him to create such a groundbreaking hit. Spoiler alert: it all comes down to human connection.
As Chu starts off, it becomes clear that his connection to his family, his culture, to film and technology – each one of those ingredients – made him who he is today.
The first shift in that narrative happened on a family vacation when Chu was young. His father put him in charge of the video recorder, so he tried his hand at stitching together a highlight reel of the vacation. He anxiously showed it to his family — and what happened next changed the trajectory of his life.
And yet, despite his successes, Chu was at a creative loss a couple years ago. Spurred in part by the Twitter firestorm around the Academy Awards' lack of diversity, Chu realized: he could be a part of the solution. He was already inside the Hollywood circle, after all, with power that few possessed.
He wasn't alone in his efforts, he says. A vibrant community on social media backed him every step of the way, ultimately driving him toward Kevin Kwan's bestselling novel Crazy Rich Asians — and the breakthrough film we know today.
Lest we forget: there was no guarantee Chu's movie would do well. In fact, many signs pointed toward failure. But, with the help of "a grassroots uprising" of Chu fans online, he says, Asian representation in the arts started to hit headlines. "This swell of support allowed a conversation to be had between us — Asian Americans defining how we saw the future of our own representation," Chu says.
And then the movie was out in theaters, and it exploded. Chu was overwhelmed with pride — a familiar sensation from all those years ago when he sat surrounded by his family, the sounds of his vacation highlight reel washing over them. Seeing people in the theater enjoying his film – well, that was "the ultimate prize," he says.
The takeaway? It all circles back to connection, to those that offered breadcrumbs of connection along the way: kindness, love, and generosity. Closing out his talk, he makes an offering to us all: a breadcrumb of connection, of inspiration.
Sometimes it feels like the world is fraying. Like our long-hold truths turn out, in an instant, to be figments of the imagination. Amid this turmoil, how can we strengthen connection, create more fulfilling lives? Speakers from Session 10 offer a range of provocative answers.
Big idea: The West needs to adapt its strategy for working with the growing Asian economy.
How? Asia has, Mahbubani says, experienced three silent revolutions in recent decades that powered its growth as a global power: one in economics, one in outlook and a third in improved governance. While he believes these have been, at least in part, due to the spread of "Western wisdom," he feels the West became distracted while Asia rose. Mahbubani recommends that the West adopt a strategy of minimalist intervention in other societies and embrace multilateral collaboration — especially as it makes up only 12 percent of the global population.
Big idea: Falling birth rates around the world will have catastrophic effects. By increasing access to health and child care, we can make it easier — and cheaper — to have children.
How? Having children is expensive and difficult, but it's necessary for the sake of our future. Our planet's challenge moving forward isn't overpopulation, Ali says, but underpopulation: Young people aren't having enough kids — and this is a nearly universal problem. In China and Europe, for instance, shrinking populations could lead to labor shortages, catalyzing economic calamity. Aging populations have always relied on younger generations to care for them — we lose this, too, when we don't have children. So, what's stopping people from having kids? Mostly, it's the cost. Governments need to provide child care, health care and paid parental leave so that more people can have kids and we can secure the future.
Big idea: In our multicultural, intersectional society, we can change our everyday get-togethers (parties, dinners, holidays) into meaningful and transformative gatherings.
How? With just three straightforward, yet playful, steps: embrace a specific purpose, cause good controversy and create a thoughtful set of one-time rules for attendees to follow. It may sound odd, but when diverse groups are temporarily allowed to change and harmonize their behavior, something amazing happens: people find a way into each other without discomfort. Collective meaning is attainable in modern life, Parker says, when we're intentional about how and why we interact.
Big idea: Animals grieve, much like humans do. Once we accept that grief — and the love from which it emerges — doesn't belong to humans alone, we can make a better, kinder world for animals.
How? After losing a family or tribe member, animals may rock, pace or wail. They often withdraw socially, fail to eat and sleep — as happened with the orca Tahlequah, who made global headlines for mourning the loss of her offspring. Many scientists still dispute animal grief, claiming its the work of our own anthropomorphism. Yet by comparing animals' pre- and post-death behavior, King sees undeniable proof that some animals do indeed grieve. Will science one day report on bereaved bees? Likely not. On toads who mourn? King doesn't expect so, since the ability to form meaningful, one-to-one relationships is the key to animal grief, and not all species do it. But in knowing, for example, that orcas feel deeply and elephants love, we can fight the mistreatment of the creatures we share this planet with — and create a kinder, safer world for all.
Big idea: Film offers us the power of connection to something bigger than ourselves.
How? The son of immigrant parents, Chu remembers that his family never felt "normal" – mostly because they never saw themselves represented on screen. But after his father equipped him with a video recorder on their family vacation, everything changed. He showed his family the footage afterward, and they cried — finally, they felt like they belonged. In the decades since, Chu made a number of Hollywood hits, but found himself at creative loss a couple years ago. That's when Crazy Rich Asians came along — and the rest is history. Millions of people just like his family saw themselves represented on the big screen, feeling pride in their existence and story. He credits his success to connections he's made throughout life — the ones that were sparked by generosity, kindness and hope. Read more about Jon M. Chu's TED Talk.

Q: Is it necessary to encrypt the payload before sending out the post request? I'm using angular as my frontend to do a login panel and send a post request to the backend which is a express API.
My domain has a SSL already, so the safety between the transfer should be good.
But I'm wondering when I open the devtool and check the request payload, the plaintext of the loginname and password is show up.
Do I need to encrypt the payload before sending post request to make it invisible?
If needed, what library I can use for this?

A: No you do not need to encrypt the payload. SSL will do that for you. The payload would be secure between the client and the server.
Devtools can be only opened on the local instance of chrome client. Dev Tools only starts capturing data when it is open and if a request is made. Cannot be used in man-in-the-middle attack.

A: With the exception of TLS/SSL. You cannot perform secure encryption of payloads on a client, only on a server. Instead you rely on encoding data on the client and then on the server you check to verify the encoded data has not been changed in flight. Take a look at JWTs "json web tokens" for authflows between client and server.
