Q: Android Studio Emulator keeps crashing when I run and press buttons on my layouts? When I run any of the layouts, the launch activity layout should run first by default, ask me to log in, and then take me to the page/layout I am clicking. After I log in or register, the emulator crashes saying "Unfortunately, app_name has stopped working."
This is one of the layouts

This is the Java class for that layout

After trying for years, Fisker Automotive is finally coming back. Rebranded as Karma Automotive, yesterday they announced the name of their comeback electric car – the Revero.
Karma Automotive plans to officially unveil the Revero this summer, but did have a few things to say about it. The company plans to keep the exterior looking the same, but might have minor bumper/light changes. The car will have a new battery, new charging system, and new electrical controls.
Taking hints from the past Fisker Automotive stalled launches and release problems, Karma Automotive is working hard to keep the Revero's expectations in check. Taylor said "We are being careful about making promises" because all sorts of things happen in vehicle development.
The company is planning to show off the Karma Revero extended range electric vehicle in July or August, and will start taking pre-orders for it near the end of 2016.

The Recap: Telehealth in the COVID-19 Era
Telehealth COVID-19
BY VYNYL TEAM - September 15, 2020
On September 10 Vynyl President and CEO Ian Harris participated in Boise Metro Chamber's panel discussion "Technology and the Future of Healthcare" alongside Dr. Waj Nassar, primary care physician of St. Luke's Health Care Systems; Heidi Hart, CEO of Terry Reilly Health Services; and Landon Reese, chief product officer of Healthwise.
The discussion focused on telehealth services, which have expanded considerably in the Treasure Valley and across the country as healthcare providers have ramped up their telehealth abilities as a response to the Coronavirus pandemic. While current circumstances are a considerable challenge to providers, technology is poised to become an even more integral part of the healthcare system.
Some key points raised by panelists included the rapid growth of telehealth utilization—in some cases more than 10x— and the need for rapid deployment of telehealth tools and workflows. The panel noted that while telehealth can be tremendously successful, there are technological and economic hurdles that will need to be overcome. For one, access to broadband internet and the connected devices needed to access telehealth are not always available to all patients.
On the provider side, Ian noted that it's also important to build telehealth into existing tools, rather than adding additional complexities for clinicians.
"A big question that we wind up asking ourselves is not just 'What can we build?' but 'What should we build that'll work within the current systems?'
"I think that you are going to see a lot of really interesting solutions that focus on empowering patients and the patient experience. How do you create less friction within that process? How do you empower patients to get information when they want it, when they need it, and then how do you make sure that that information is good and useful to the rest of their care team? That's the big area that we've been focusing on."
For more of Ian and the panel's insights into the future of telehealth, check out the full recording.

I'm new to this forum. Love the website!
I've been diagnosed with PCOS and been given Metformin. Has anyone else found this to be helpful?
I've been trying to 3 years now and it's getting me down. I've been trying to loose weight too, but i'm stuck and need to loose more.
It's all very stressful and i'm finding it hard to cope.
I'm sorry to hear you are feeling down. Trying for a baby is one of the most stressful experiences a woman can go through in her life. You are not alone.
Metformin is commonly prescribed to help reduce insulin levels which can cause higher levels of testosterone and multiple follicles (PCOS). However, recent large scale studies have shown Metformin to be uneffective.
Acupuncture can help reduce weight and regulate insulin levels, thereby improving PCOS. An optimised diet that has a balance of protein, omega-3s, vegetables and fruit will greatly help. Basically, a paleo diet. Acupuncture will also help to reduce your stress levels. Give it a try!
Hello everyone! I'm new to this forum. My name is Jess. I came here to find support, some advice and of course information about infertility and ivf. The thing is that recently I've got to know that my only chance to have a baby is ivf with donor eggs. To be honest I feel like I'm not ready for such a big step. That's why I decided to come here and talk to people who know smth about this procedure. I'm very confused. I have so many questions! I hope you will help me.
My name is Victoria, I'm 32 yo. I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 19 yo. I've been in treatments for years. My husband and I have been together for almost 10 years. All this time we were ttc, but unfortunately treatments gave no results. Two years ago one of my doctors advised to try ivf with donor eggs. We were not 100% sure we want go this way. We've been thinking about this option for a year or even more. To be honest, it was me, who had lots of doubts and questions. Eventually I agreed to try and we went for ivf with donor eggs. I've got pregnant from the first attempt which was great surprise for us. After 10 years of infertility struggle we are finally pregnant! Now as I'm on maternity leave I decided to find a board where I could exchange thoughts and feelings with people, who were/are at the same boat with me!
Just sign up to the website because I'm feeling anxious. Well this is my story.
I'm 42 years old. We have been trying to conceive for over three years.
My IVF journey (short protocol) started the 10th July 2017. Egg retrieval took place on the 20th July. Egg transfer took place on 23rd July.
The 2WW until I can test if I'm pregnant or not is already taking it's toll. I'm going crazy worry and constantly searching the internet for information on how to get through it.
Hello everyone! I'm so sorry you faced problems with your ttc. I'm also new here. I'm 44. I came here to find information about donor eggs. Last year I had failed try of IVF with my own eggs. Now doctors say I need to use donor eggs. This is my only chance to become a mother. So now step by step I get more into this whole procedure. I want to wish you all the best! I hope all of us will find all info we need!
For women who want to become pregnant, treatment is focused on weight reduction and promoting ovulation. Treatment may include: Weight reduction. Ovulation induction medications. (These medications stimulate the ovary to make one or more follicles [sacs that contain eggs] and release the egg for fertilization. For women with PCOS, these medications also increase the risks for having a multiple birth [twins or more] and ovarian hyperstimulation, a condition of excessive stimulation of the ovaries that can cause hormone changes, abdominal bloating, and pelvic pain.) Women sometimes struggle with the physical changes that occur with PCOS, such as weight gain, hair growth, and acne. In addition to diet and medications, cosmetic procedures, such as electrolysis and laser hair removal can often help a woman feel better about her appearance. Because of the possible long-term health risks for PCOS, including heart disease and type 2 diabetes, women with PCOS should consult their doctor about appropriate treatment. Especially in this clinic in Kiev, they have the best services. They are even running out of economy package.
I very sorry to hear about that. A fried of mine went for ivf to Gerorgia and they weren't happy. They said it was a "rip off" of their pockets. Aparently she had like 5% of getting pregnant. Hwever, they were keep on looking for donor eggs and came across First Egg Bank in Belgium. It seemes like they are the biggest don or bank in Europa and have all kind of donors. They offer eas well a medical courier service with frozen eggs. If I were you I would contact them via their main page.
It's really sad to hear about that...actually I am new here and I am looking for information about an egg donor because my wife is failed in IVF. I wish i got the information from here.

Playing badminton in Vietnam: The unlikely game that brings tourists and locals together
Sue Williams
A badminton game under way in Ho Chi Minh City. Photo: Shutterstock
The Vietnamese man standing next to me shrieks, leaps into the air and then high-fives me, with a grin as wide as the Saigon River flowing beside us.
"Good, good!" he shouts. "We win! We win!"
Then he grabs my hand and pumps it with a vigour that belies the half-hour we've just spent running madly around the pedestrian thoroughfare, sweating buckets under the blistering sun, playing a game of early-morning, pre-work badminton.
On the other side of the court painted onto the pavement, the losing players – all three of them in this weird, anything-goes game of (very) mixed doubles – laugh at my fellow victor's excitement, nod good-naturedly and duck under the net to come and shake my hand, too.
The lone woman confers with her two partners, and then turns back to me, beaming. "You come tomorrow!" she demands. "Same time. Then we win!"
When you are a tourist, it can be hard to meet and make friends with the locals on a more-or-less equal basis. But sport offers a great pathway; taking part in a sporting event, however informal, is invariably a wonderful way of connecting.
In Vietnam, for instance, it is simple. As a country full of badminton players, all you need is good humour, a fair dose of humility and preferably a modicum of skill to be welcomed into any game.
When I first visited Ho Chi Minh city 16 years ago, I looked out of my hotel window early one morning and was startled to see the streets below full of people whacking shuttles to and fro over nets. I went down, stood on the sidelines looking longingly at the play and was eventually handed a racquet and invited to join in.
Proving an unexpected asset to my side – I've played the sport for years – I found myself becoming one of the most popular players on the strip. And whenever a game was interrupted by local lottery ticket-sellers or peanut-kids marching onto the court to sell to the foreigner, they were quickly hustled off by my team-mates.
These days, I take along my own racquet and get up early on weekday mornings to wander over and join any street games. Our only interruption this morning is when a street-sweeper strolls onto our court mid-volley and ignores our entreaties to go away. Instead, we have to halt for three minutes until he finishes and, when I start laughing at the ridiculousness of the situation, everyone else joins in.
It is another demonstration to me of how sport can be such a great way of connecting, even when you share very few words of language.
While badminton in Asia has proved my most successful sporting venture, others haven't worked out too badly, either.
In Maputo, Mozambique, a country that is soccer-mad, having given birth to one of the greatest footballers of all time, Eusebio, I joined in a mixed game of football in an empty car park. Being pretty hopeless at that only seemed to add to everyone else's enjoyment.
In Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where running is the lion of sports, I went for a jog in Meskel Square, a vast maze of running tracks in the city centre, and ended up having a number of breathless (from me, at least) chats with local runners who would run beside me for a while to see where I was from, and what I was doing.
In Cambodia's Phnom Penh a few of us started kicking around a hacky sack – a "keepy-uppy" kind of shuttlecock – and were soon joined by a crowd of locals keen to show off their own skills.
I have also played basketball with teenagers in Atlanta, Georgia; netball with a group of mums in Auckland, New Zealand; skipped with kids in the Honduran capital Tegucigalpa; and played the run-and-tag game of Drop the Hanky with youngsters just outside Dili in East Timor, for playing games is a great way of connecting with kids, too, especially in poorer places when you buy the balls and leave them behind afterwards.
And that can be the magic of sport – as a traveller, everyone wins.

William O'Neil was the son of William Gordon and Eileen O'Neil of New Brighton, Christchurch.
He died when his ship, HMS Neptune, hit several mines in the sea off Tripoli and sank in December 1941.
HMS Neptune was launched at Portsmouth on 31 January 1933. She was one of five 'Leander' class light cruisers completed between 1933 and 1935. Two others were HMS Achilles and Leander serving in the RNZN. They displaced 7,200 tons, could make 32 knots and carried eight 6 inch guns and 550 crew. The Neptune was in the Mediterranean from 1 December 1941 as part of Force K which was searching for Axis shipping, especially those taking supplies to Rommel in North Africa. Early on the 19th the ships of Force K ran into a minefield.The Neptune hit three or four mines and sank with only one survivor. At the same time the Aurora was badly damaged and Penelope slightly.Trying to reach Neptune to assist, the destroyer Kandahar was mined and had to be scuttled the following day. On the same day in Alexandria harbour the Queen Elizabeth with Admiral Cunningham on board and the Valiant were both badly damaged and sank.The Mediterranean Fleet battle squadron ceased to exist. Of the total crew of 766 there was only one survivor.He was rescued off a raft five days later by an Italian destroyer and spent the rest of the war in a prisoner of war camp. AWMM

Both sides are promising tax relief for ordinary Aussies.
Speculation is mounting that Treasurer Josh Frydenberg's first budget, to be handed down next Tuesday, will bring forward income tax cuts that have already been legislated as well as improve tax offsets for low-income earners.
"Wherever I get the opportunity to give Australians further tax relief, I never miss the opportunity," he told reporters in Melbourne.
Labor has opposed the higher-income tax reductions and says it will give cuts of $350 to people earning $25,000 and up to $928 for people on $90,000 a year. "All I know is that we are offering bigger, better, fairer tax cuts," Opposition Leader Bill Shorten told reporters in Melbourne.

PABLO QUINTANILLA SECOND OVERALL AFTER STAGE 10 OF DAKAR
ROCKSTAR ENERGY HUSQVARNA RIDER FINISHES SEVENTH ON FIRST LEG OF MARATHON STAGE TO DEFEND RUNNER-UP POSITION IN EVENT STANDINGS
Pablo Quintanilla – Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing
This press release has: 4 Images
Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing's Pablo Quintanilla and Andrew Short have both successfully completed the first leg of the 2020 Dakar Rally marathon stage. Opening the special following his winning ride on stage nine, Quintanilla navigated well through the initial 200 kilometres to place seventh. The day's proceedings were shortened due to safety concerns and results were declared at kilometre 345.
With stage 10 of the rally due to include the longest timed special of the event at an exhausting 534 kilometres, riders initially focused on preserving their machines and making it safely to the temporary bivouac at Shubaytah. The fast, open pistes and tricky navigation proved a real challenge to some, with a number of riders losing time or falling from their machines. With all helicopters being used to aid competitors, the organisers had no choice but to cut short the stage for safety reasons.
Opening the track on day 10, Pablo Quintanilla did an excellent job of navigating his way through the stage, losing the minimum amount of time to the chasing riders behind. With his Husqvarna FR 450 Rally performing perfectly, the Chilean rider reached the refuelling stop in seventh place, less than six minutes down on the eventual stage winner. Following the shortening of the day's proceedings, Pablo made it safely to the bivouac at Shubaytah. Enjoying an advantageous start position for tomorrow, the two-time world champion is in a strong position to make up time during the event's penultimate stage 11.
Andrew Short enjoyed a strong start to stage 10, moving up to sixth-fastest by the third checkpoint. Pushing hard on the high-speed special, a small mistake right before the neutralisation caused the American to get lost and lose some time. Worried about his fuel level, Short was thankfully able to get his FR 450 Rally back on track and to the checkpoint. Unfortunately, due to the time lost he placed 18th following the reduction of the stage.
Thursday's stage 11 marks the second half of the marathon stage and returns to Haradh from the bivouac at Shubaytah. Totalling 744 kilometres, the day includes a challenging 379-kilometre special that will once again test riders' navigation skills.
Pela Renet – Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing Rally Team Manager: "Both riders did a really good job today – Pablo led the stage well from the front and Andrew was really doing well right up until just before the refuelling. Pablo was caught by Price and Barreda on the special and so lost about six minutes, but with the stage cut short he could have lost more as the other riders caught up to the leading group. He now has a good start position for tomorrow and has lost less time today than we thought, due to the reduced distance of the stage. Andrew was making really good time but got lost a little right before the neutralisation and as such was worried he would have run out of fuel off the main route. Thankfully, he was able to get back on track. Despite all the challenges, including his penalty and stopping to help Toby Price during the first week, Andrew still lies just outside the top 10 overall, which is a massive achievement considering the race he's had."

In 1705, the estate was acquired by the Blachford family and this was developed by Robert Pope Blachford in the late 18th century.
To escape the pressures of London life, the Queen and her husband were looking for a suitable retreat. The estate was owned by Lady Isabella Blachford and was leased to the royal couple, having been recommended to them by Prime Minister Robert Peel.
In 1845, they bought the estate and, following the advice of eminent builder Thomas Cubitt, demolished it and built a new mansion to their own design. As with a host of projects, Albert was a driving force. When Albert died in 1861, much of the new estate was built, but there was still a large degree of building work to do. This was to accommodate guests, servants as well as additional members of the royal household.
In later years it had very much become Victoria's home and when she died in 1901, the estate passed on to her successor, Edward VII. The King didn't have a need for it and as no other royal would take on the upkeep, in 1902 the house was given to the nation.
Buildings in the grounds were used by the Naval College until 1933, but the house wasn't touched, in fact Victoria and Albert's private rooms had remained sealed since her death in 1901. In 1954, the newly crowned Queen Elizabeth gave permission for these rooms to be opened to the public.
By 1986, English Heritage had taken over the management of Osborne House and in 2012 the Queen's private beach was also opened to the public. In 2014 English Heritage completed a £1.65m project at the site.
Today, the House, sitting near East Cowes at the north tip of the Isle of Wight, is open to the public.
Located on the Isle of Wight, Osborne House is the ideal landmark to visit on a trip to the island, or, if it was the specific reason for travelling over, gives you the ideal opportunity for exploring the rest of the island, once you've seen the house.
It's only a mile from East Cowes, so convenient from the ferry, and reasonably close too from the other ferry ports of Fishbourne (4 miles) and Ryde (7 miles).
A trip here can provide a fantastic day out, certainly if the weather is good. Apart from the grand state rooms inside, there are also the magnificent gardens, the Swiss Cottage, the Osborne House beach, the restaurant, café, gift shop, playgrounds, trails and walks and the museum.
Opening times are generally 10.00 to 18.00 in summer, with closing times being earlier from October. The site is open all year, but closes during certain weekdays over the winter.
Events are often held here and the website gives full details.

Two hundred people dine together to keep the works of Debord in France
The countdown has begun. And time is passing quickly. Ever since 29 January [2009], when the Minister of Culture, Christine Albanel, classified the archives of Guy Debord (1931-1994), leader of the situationist movement, as a "national treasure," the State has had 30 months to raise the money necessary to acquire [for the Bibliotheque nationale de France] the assets inventoried by the Parisian bookseller Benoit Forgeot.
In addition to the handwritten manuscript of The Society of the Spectacle (published in 1967 and available as a "Folio" edition), these assets include a collection of reader's notes; two notebooks in which Guy Debord recorded his dreams; everything that concerns the Game of War,[1] along with one of the five copies of the work that were pulped;[2] the manuscript of his last projected book; all of his notes on the cinema; large dossiers concerning publishing; and the entirety of his correspondence.[3]
After the two-and-a-half-year period is over, these assets -- the integrity of which has been preserved by Alice Debord,[4] widow of the writer and holder of the copyrights -- could migrate across the Atlantic Ocean and be acquired by an American university, one very fond [friandes] of these types of documents, such as Yale, which is already first in line.[5]
The value of these archives is difficult to evaluate, but it surpasses several hundred thousand euros. In an attempt to raise part of the sum [to be paid to Ms. Debord], Bruno Racine, President of the Bibliotheque nationale de France (BNF), has decided to appeal to [potential] patrons by gathering them together for a prestigious dinner. This gala dinner will take place Monday, 15 June [2009], at the Francois-Mitterrand site, in the prestigious Hall of the Globes. This manner of raising funds is directly inspired by the methods of American foundations and museums, which solicit contributions from super-rich donors.
"Once a year, we bring together all of our big patrons in a prestigious setting," the President of the BNF explains. In 2008, the money raised (around 200,000 euros [$260,000]) allowed the library to acquire a unique piece by the German artist Anselm Kieffer, an homage to the poet Paul Celan, and a collection of letters by Marcel Proust.
This year, the crisis promises to make itself felt, but nearly two hundred seats-for-sale have already been reserved (over the course of the last year) for the dinner, organized by Mr. Racine and the banker Jean-Claude Meyer, President of the BNF Society. Glassware, porcelain, classic Bordeaux [wines] and subtle dishes will be on the menu.
The cost is fixed at 500 euros per plate, but [additional] gifts are left to the discretion of the companies or people in attendance. "There is a floor, but no ceiling," Mr. Racine points out. Certain companies and foundations, such as Total, Veolia and Roederer (which will provide the champagne) have reserved one or several tables, each seating a dozen people.
Among the dinner guests who have soiled the elegant napkins[6] are Sotheby's, the Ropac galleries, Templon, the Boissonnat family, and the Clarence Foundation. For the for-profit enterprises, this operation is interesting, because their gifts are 90% deductible, while those from individuals are only 60% deductible.
The administrative board of the BNF Society also includes general donors, the most regular of whom is Nahed Ojjeh, the widow of the super-rich arms dealer Akram Ojjeh; the co-founder of the [Yves] Saint Laurent fashion label, Pierre Berge, as well as the head of the Rivaud Group, Edouard de Ribes; the collector Pierre Leroy, co-manager of the Lagardere Group[7] -- all go to the annual dinners. This year, the Society has also created a BNF prize, endowed with 10,000 euros, to support contemporary research; it will be awarded the same evening [as the Debord dinner].
Among those invited are the Minister of Culture, Christine Albanel, who can authorize national-heritage funds to contribute to the purchase, but also the widow of the writer herself, who has agreed that the manuscript of The Society of the Spectacle be displayed to potential donors during the dinner. Other national-heritage works recently acquired will also be presented, including Jean d'Arras' L'Histoire de la belle Melusine, from 1479, and the manuscript of Boris Vian's L'Ecume des jours.
Will the general donors go for the bait? The response will come the evening of 15 June. But this dinner already has a delicious foretaste. It is an understatement to say that there is a cultural pit between the patrons and the anti-capitalist and anti-consumerist thought of Guy Debord. Bruno Racine must seek money where he can find it. And he insists, "the BNF will not uniquely acquire the assets of authors who defend the established order."

[1] Also known as kriegspiel, this is the cabinet game that Guy Debord invented (circa 1977).
[2] The work in question is the book Le "Jeu de guerre": releve des positions successives de toutes les forces au cours d'une partie, which was written in collaboration with Alice Becker-Ho and originally published by Editions Gerard Lebovici (Paris, 1987). In 1991, Debord started a lawsuit against the inheritors of Editions Gerard Lebovici and eventually won a judgment that required this publishing house to pulp all the copies of all the books it had published by both Debord and Becker-Ho.
[3] Note well that, thanks to "Alice Debord," the seven-volume-long series of works entitled Guy Debord Correspondance (published by the Librairie Artheme Fayard between 1999 and 2008) is not presented in its "entirety."
[4] Alice Ho was born in Shanghai in 1941 to Chinese/French parents. She was raised in France. In 1963, she encountered the Situationist International, and was a member of the Occupations Committee in May 1968. In 1972, she married Guy Debord, and stayed with him through his suicide in 1994.
[5] It was in fact Yale's interest in purchasing these "assets" [ce fonds], which had been thoroughly catalogued and appraised on behalf of "Alice Debord," that caused the Minister of Culture to intercede and stop the transaction from going any further.

Chancellor Syverud Addresses Most Recent Immigration Issues via University Senate's Open Forum
Wednesday, February 8, 2017, By News Staff
Chancellor Kent Syverud
At the Syracuse University Senate's open forum on Wednesday, Feb. 8, Vice Chancellor and Provost Michele Wheatly provided updates on a number of important issues and University initiatives. The provost also fielded and addressed several questions from students, faculty and staff.
In addition to sharing her prepared remarks, the provost also read a message from Chancellor Kent Syverud, who was unable to participate in the forum due to an alumni engagement commitment in Los Angeles.
The statement from Chancellor Syverud is as follows:
"To my Senate colleagues, faculty, students and staff, apologies for missing this afternoon's open forum. I am traveling on long-scheduled University business. As I have said to you in the past, the work of the Senate and its role in shared governance is critical to our University. This forum is a testament to those collaborative efforts.
In my absence, I have asked Provost Wheatly to answer your questions. I have also asked her to briefly share with you my views on the current immigration law changes and the ensuing debate and legal challenges. To be clear, this university simply cannot support or abide by any policy that discriminates against, or makes a preference for, one person over the other based on religion, national origin or other inherent characteristics. Any such policy is wrong and antithetical to the Constitution of the United States of America and the values of this university."
The Chancellor's statement today follows a series of messages and remarks he recently made regarding these important issues:
Last week, in a message to students, faculty and staff, Chancellor Syverud called on the campus community to join him in supporting those affected by changing immigration laws. That message can be read here.
The Chancellor also delivered a winter message to the community on Tuesday, Jan. 17. In those remarks, he addressed immigration matters. Click here to read the full transcript of his remarks.
On Dec. 7, 2016, the Chancellor sent a message to the campus community, in which he expresses the University's support of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program and Syracuse's undocumented students. Click here to read this message.
And, during the Nov. 15, 2016, University Senate meeting, Chancellor Syverud delivered these remarks, during which he acknowledged the world recently became more complicated. He also used his remarks as an opportunity to reiterate Syracuse University's values.

Finding the Terroir of American Spirits
Companies like Wigle Whiskey are resurrecting "grain to glass" distilling
Photo courtesy of Wigle Whiskey.
"Our core belief is that a craft distiller's relevance depends on their ability to produce spirits bursting with the taste of place," says Meredith Grelli, who founded Wigle Whiskey with her husband, Alex, in Pittsburgh in 2012.
The Grellis, it turns out, were in the right place at the right time. A growing subset of consumers these days appear to be sidestepping mass-market liquor and are drawn instead to products that are authentic, largely unknown, and closely tied to their place of origin. With the ability to be more nimble and to produce limited runs for niche markets, craft distillers are well positioned to meet this cadre where they are.
Yet putting place in a bottle isn't easy. Much of the knowledge about how to do so was developed through small-scale, regional distilling, and that was left behind when Prohibition went into effect in 1919. When the ban was repealed, the industry came to be dominated by mastodon distillers who could efficiently produce vast amounts. Supply chains for distilleries shifted from local farms to multinational conglomerates. Anyone wanting to revive "grain to glass" distilling had to either grow their own grain or find local farmers amenable to their mission.
And then there's the question of flavor. Nobody alive today really knows what extinct local spirits—like Monongahela whiskey, an early rye once commonly made in Pennsylvania and Maryland—actually tasted like. Some believe the rye got its flavor from a now-extinct three-chamber still; others suspect local grains provided a distinctive flavor. And a few skeptics think it was just a regional name used to market a product that might not have been all that different from whiskey made elsewhere.
The Grellis wanted to figure out Monongahela whiskey for two reasons. First, there was simple curiosity—if this flavor had actually gone extinct, who wouldn't want to know what it tasted like? There was a second, more practical reason: In a world dominated by major liquor brands selling whiskey made from commodity grain at attractive prices, craft producers need to emphasize the local and antiquarian to draw consumers' attention and persuade them to pay a premium.
"Pre-Prohibition, we had thousands of individual stills producing regional spirits in the country," says Meredith. "And we really never recovered. As a result, we've been living in this really boring spirit landscape. We lost a lot of that regional character."
Exploring Regional Grains
The Grellis decided to test their suspicion that grain-growing conditions defined their region. So they started what they came to call the Terroir Rye Project by sourcing rye from five regions—Canada, Vermont, Minnesota, Ohio, and their regular supplier, a farm outside Pittsburgh. Batches of rye whiskey were then distilled using the same protocols, and similar barrels were used to age each batch.
The Grellis and their staff regularly tasted the batches for differences during aging, and they sent samples to a lab for chemical analysis. They did find a difference in taste. The local rye had a distinctly sharper flavor than the other samples; it was a bit more mineral-like, with an undeniable rye-bread finish. (The lab analysis also showed intriguing variations—the Pennsylvania rye was notably higher in the flavor compounds furfural, acetaldehyde, isobutanol, and isoamyl alcohol.)
The Grellis' thought was that Western Pennsylvania's less-than-ideal growing conditions (tricky climate, rocky soil) may stress the grains and concentrate elements that contribute to flavor. This could be analogous to wine grapes grown under stress, which is known to alter their resulting taste, often for the better. "Maybe we impact the rye by growing it in these very tough conditions," Meredith says, "and that helps to create this regional identity."
Wigle Whiskey has bottled three of these terroir samples in 200-milliliter bottles, which the distillery offers for sale as a set, allowing consumers to experience this terroir themselves. "This is the cutting edge," said Glen Roberts, the founder of the organic heritage grain producer Anson Mills, based in Columbia, South Carolina, at a beverage conference last year. "And it's just beginning. These are people who are really passionate and were willing to go out on the diving board on this stuff, not knowing where the pool was—let alone if it had water in it."

The word heritage crops up in spirits marketing materials frequently these days, but behind the term often lies little more than the notion that it sounds appealing. "The one thing that we noticed early on," says Scott Blackwell, who with his wife, Ann Marshall, owns High Wire Distilling in Charleston, South Carolina, "was that people were saying they were using heirloom corn or whatever, but that's it. It was a cursory approach rather than a deep dive."
Blackwell and Marshall have undertaken similar experiments in terroir, with corn and sugarcane. They've produced a whiskey made from Jimmy Red corn—an old variety all but lost until rediscovered and promoted by Sean Brock, an award-winning chef specializing in Southern cuisine, who uses it in grits and other dishes. High Wire is also one of the few distillers to make a legitimate agricole rum—it sources fresh sugarcane juice from three South Carolina locales, and bottles the rum made from each separately, much as the Grellis have done with their terroir rye. "It was nice to see [the Grellis] taking a much deeper dive on the scientific side," Blackwell says. "At the end of the day, if you've got data, it's much more real. It inspired us to dive deeper ourselves."
The Terroir Rye Project has since wrapped up; Wigle bottled all its experimental barrels after two years of aging. The Grellis achieved what they'd set out to do—to demonstrate that regional grains can produce a whiskey with a stand-alone flavor. They continue to produce their flagship rye with grain from their local supplier—along with a wheated bourbon and straight wheat whiskey—but they now have some data to back up their conjecture about the historic evolution of regional whiskeys.
Experimenting with Small-Batch Spirits
The Grellis are continuing to indulge their curiosity by experimenting with uncommon products. At one point, Meredith realized that Wigle had produced 36 different products over 36 months, which she admits isn't a terribly sustainable or solid business model.
The couple's projects have included adventures in an array of spirits categories. They've made a honey spirit that derives a spicy edge from aging in tequila barrels, and a whiskey flavored with cider. For several years Meredith worked part-time as an adjunct professor at nearby Chatham University, leading classes that became a skunkworks for developing new spirits at the school's 380-acre Eden Hall agricultural campus. Among the spirits that emerged was Wigle's popular Afterglow Ginger Whiskey. Wigle also recently released Dunder Rum, the result of tinkering with a modified dunder pit (which was kicked into life with cheese bacteria), allowing them to make a fruity, high-ester product inspired by the bigger, bolder Jamaican rums.
From a single building in Pittsburgh's Strip District, Wigle has steadily grown since opening. A barrel house and seasonal bar were added in a historic neighborhood across the Allegheny River. Last year the Grellis opened a cidery nearby, called Threadbare Cider, where, among other things, they explore the history and lore of Johnny Appleseed, who lived not far from Pittsburgh in the 1790s. "Innovation in cider right now is focused on yeast," Meredith says. "In the past two years we've worked with 200 different yeasts."
Continuing to explore obscure variables and overlooked processes and ingredients will remain part of the Grellis' blueprint. "Our commitment to new product development and innovation hasn't changed," Meredith says. "But we're getting smarter about how we bring those to market and communicate those innovations to the market."

BETHESDA, Md.—In three papers in Nature Genetics, researchers from several institutes including the National Cancer Institute, deCODE genetics, and the Broad Institute used SNP analysis to identify several new genetic markers for prostate cancer susceptibility in multiple ethnic populations. All of the variations were located on chromosome 8q24.
In the first paper, Broad's Dr. David Reich and colleagues used bidirectional PCR-based resequencing and Illumina BeadStudio technology to probe almost 3000 SNPs in 7500 men with and without prostate cancer. They identified seven risk variants—five previously unidentified—that independently predicted prostate cancer susceptibility. The data also identified markers for cancer risk variation between African American and European American populations.
In a similar study, deCODE's Dr. Kari Stefansson and colleagues performed genome-wide association analysis of ~4500 individuals to construct a 14-SNP haplotype that is quite uncommon in prostate cancer patients of European ancestry, but occurs in ~42% of African American individuals with prostate cancer. Meanwhile, in the third study, NCI's Dr. Stephen Chanock and colleagues identified two independent loci that contribute to prostate cancer risk in people of European ancestry.
While none of the markers align with known genes or alter protein sequences, they may provide new biomarkers to stratify patient populations for increased cancer surveillance.

Walt Crawford updates his analysis of DOAJ data
Walt Crawford is prolific! As if his first tranche of mega-analysis wasn't enough work for him, he has released an update to The Gold Open Access Landscape 2011-2014, which I wrote about previously, that includes an initial analysis of the journals that were removed from DOAJ at the shut-down of the Reapplication project.* He completed the update in May 2016: this post is long overdue.
Gold Open Access Journals 2011-2015, sponsored by SPARC, 'provides an empirical basis for evaluating Open Access sustainability models'. The rest of the study is based entirely on DOAJ, refining and updating the previous work. To give you a taster of what was achieved, Walt visited the web site of every journal indexed in DOAJ, even doing a second pass at those sites who hadn't posted any content the first time around. In the age of analysing large metadata sets programmatically, with computers, this is a huge feat and one that I admire greatly.
What did Walt's analysis reveal? Well, you can buy the paperback, a snip at only $6, directly from Walt and you can download the PDF free of charge too.
What did DOAJ learn from Walt's analysis? We hadn't realised quite how heavily Japan had been hit by the removal: 73% of the Japanese journals indexed in DOAJ were wiped from the Directory. We have since determined that most of those are on J-STAGE and have started a targeted campaign to get as many of those journals to submit new applications as possible. Singapore, Bangladesh and Nepal were also heavily hit. We also learned that journals published by universities and colleges suffered heavy losses. We are looking into this area with our DOAJ Ambassadors to see if we can find out why these losses were so great.
I can thoroughly recommend Walt's work, not only for the obvious reason that he focusses so greatly on the [great!] DOAJ data but because, to my knowledge, no-one else is doing this type of analysis with such granularity.
As I write, I see that Walt has released an analysis of Open Access by Country 2011 to 2015, the 3rd part of his Gold Open Access Journals trilogy. As always, you can purchase the paperback or download the PDF for free.
Now, get reading!
*The final figure was 2851 journals removed and not 3300 as we had originally anticipated. The discrepancy was because we included, in the original count, journals that had already been removed from DOAJ and therefore had a reapplication pending but which would never be submitted.

Thanks for the kind words and for using my results to further your work. (By the way, more than 5,000 copies of the free PDF have been downloaded so far–and nobody's shelled out $6 for the paperback.) In case you're wondering about a 2012-2016 followup next year: Extremely likely to happen.

This post is our next in the new series of posts focused on music therapy and interdisciplinary work in end-of-life care. I'm bringing you my contribution as a music therapist who is also trained as a depth psychotherapist.
We, the music therapy community, have a certain way of talking about our work in end-of-life care, and a certain way that we generally do not talk about our work in end-of-life care. End-of-life music therapy clinical work is often described as "so beautiful" and "so spiritual," I think more so than music therapy in its other clinical iterations. We like to talk about the lightness, the tears of much-needed release, the uplifting, transcendent beauty of music in the moments leading toward someone's death.
