To visualize the process of protein transport and membrane renewal, the group developed the photoconversion technique which enables visualization of protein transport. This photoconversion technique allows enhancing the contrast for newly synthesized proteins by a factor of 1000 – 4000 fold. The technique was combined with high-resolution confocal microscopy to study the ciliary transport of rod photoreceptor membrane proteins. Disruption of ciliary transport mechanism is the major cause of inherited photoreceptor degeneration.
With photoconversion and other techniques,the group found that rhodopsin and peripherin/rds, two major OS constituents,are transported by distinct mechanisms (Tian et al. 2014). Rhodopsin is trafficked through a conventional secretory pathway, whereas peripherin/rds is trafficked through an unconventional secretory pathway. We also found that different combinations of trafficking signals allow these proteins to select specific and distinct routes of trafficking (Lodowski et al. 2013 and Tian et al. 2014). When trafficking signals become mis-coordinated, rhodopsin mislocalizes to the plasma membrane of the rod inner segment. This mislocalization is of clinical importance, as it is observed in the retina of most patients with retinitis pigmentosa. Imanishi Lab is specialized to characterize the mechanisms of membrane protein transport and renewal in photoreceptor cells.

China pledges more than $100m in military aid to Cambodia
China will give more than $100m in military aid to Cambodia, to be use for "any necessary need", it has been announced.
A Cambodian Defence Ministry spokesperson said that China's defence minister Wei Fenghe had "pledged more than $100m" to be used for whatever Cambodia required, during his visit to a China-Cambodia military exhibition in Phnom Penh.
Spokesperson General Chum Socheat said: "He [Wei] did not specify what we can buy, just for use for any necessary need."
He added that China had "promised to support, train and to help reform our military to be modernised like others" and that the two countries would next year hold their third series of joint military exercises known as "Golden Dragon".
This comes as Cambodia's prime minister Hun Sen's ruling party is expected to win the general election on 29 July, after the Supreme Court dissolved the main opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party last November at the government's request.
Last year, the United States and Cambodia scrapped their joint military exercises. The US has withdrawn financial support for Cambodia's elections.
In a statement by China's Defence Ministry, Wei said that Cambodia was a "loyal friend" and that he stood by the country as it tried to develop along a path that "accords with its national conditions".
China is the biggest aid donor assisting Cambodia.

Children are not little adults, yet they are often given medicines and treatments that were only tested in adults. There is a lot of evidence that children's developing brains and bodies can respond to medicines and treatments differently than how adults respond. The way to get the best treatments for children is through research designed specifically for them.
Should your child participate in a clinical study?
Parents and caregivers may have many questions when they are considering enrolling a child in a clinical study, and that children and adolescents also want to know what they will go through. NIMH is committed to ensuring that families trying to decide whether to enroll their child in a clinical study get all the information they need to feel comfortable and make informed decisions. The safety of children remains the utmost priority for all NIMH and NIH research studies.

Last seen here for the 2010 edition of West Coast Blues N' Roots, Guitar legend, Jeff Beck, performs at the Perth Concert Hall on Thursday, April 24. LACHLAN KANONIUK reports.
He's one of the most revered lead guitarists in rock history, going on to forge a steady and formidable standing as a virtuoso since his mid-'60s stint with The Yardbirds.
Even after a half century of performing, Jeff Beck is still exploring the possibilities of the electric guitar, pursuing a varied array of worldly musical styles – including an upcoming full-length collaboration with Brian Wilson.
Ahead of his arrival in Australia for this year's Byron Bay Bluesfest, as well as some headlining shows, Beck speaks about the album, the difficulties in constructing a setlist and a worship for a purity of guitar tone.
"It's fairly new," he says of the band he will be bringing to Australia this year. "We just did a short tour with Brian Wilson a few months ago. We have a new drummer, we have violin and rhythm guitar."
Armed with decades of back catalogue jams, including the eclectic 2010 album, Emotion & Commotion, compiling a setlist for the Australian tour is a challenge in itself.
"It's always a tricky one, when you have a new album you need to decide how much of it to put in the show before people start looking at each other wondering what they're thinking too. It's a worry, not wanting to baffle people with new material. But if you don't leave the old stuff behind, you're going to be stuck with it. So you have to choose a song you have absolute belief in that it will rock the place.
"But there is no way of testing the stuff. People come with a pre-conceived notion of what you're going to play, so you don't want to bombard them with weird music they've never heard before. I just hope I make the right choices when I come down there," he laughs.
Following on from a collaborative US tour last year, Beck is set to put the finishing touches on a full-length team-up with Beach Boys legend, Wilson.
"The album is finished without me, I've got all the backing tracks done and mixed as close as we can get without the guitar. So I can take that in the car and imagine what I'm going to play. So I can play 14 songs in the car without me playing features. There are riffs, but the solo sections are left empty so I can dial into what I want to play, instead of just blindly playing at the time of recording.
"That's been my problem, thinking that the live performance is the be-all. But it's not necessarily so. If you want to really deliver the best solo, you need to think about what you're doing first. Unless it comes out naturally, that one-off genius. But for me, with the difficult, Eastern-influenced music that we're playing, I need to have it in my pocket for a couple of weeks before committing to a solo," he reasons.
The match of Wilson's impeccable pop acumen and Beck's at-times aggressive guitar style may seem incongruous on paper, but the fusion of musical minds reaches beyond the sum of its parts.
"The texture, the style is predetermined, the melody is just suggested. Who knows how Brian's organisation works, he doesn't say a lot in the sessions. It's a bit of a guessing game, but there's always a map to guide you. It's not an easy task. You obviously wouldn't play an aggressive solo over a pretty ballad. There was one track with an aggressive riff, and he explained to his people that he wanted me to be me on it, but it's still in the making, as far as I know."
With a career spanning many epochs of evolution in terms of guitar technology, Beck still feels the need to adhere to the gold standard set in simpler times.
"I don't want to hear about new gizmos that are safety nets in any way. You give me an amp and a guitar and if I can't do anything impressive with that, then something's wrong. Can you imagine if Django Reinhardt started playing with a wah-wah pedal? Or flanging with a chorus? It's not necessary.
"If the melody is good and you're playing well, and you have your craft under control, then I'm not really interested in what's there that wasn't invented in the '50s with the electric guitar. I don't like the sound of digital records. We had it right, why mess with it?"

Up for sale is a rare unmodified, unmolested and fully documented NA1 5-speed Acura NSX in excellent overall condition.
This car is completely up to date on maintenance including brakes, clutch, timing belt service and fresh tires. It just completed a 1250 mile road trip through the back roads and mountain passes of Colorado. The NSX is a flawless GT car that eats up the miles, delivering extreme comfort, sports car handling, a glorious sound from its VTEC power plant and 26.5 very spirited miles per gallon of gas.
The NSX was conceived by Honda to match the performance of Ferrari's mid engine V8's while incorporating the reliability and ease of maintenance of a Japanese car and at a lower acquisition price. Spearheaded by "Mr. Type-R" to develop the project, the sensei Shigeru Uehara famously enlisted the counsel of his friend and Formula One legend Ayrton Senna to refine the final prototypes. Mission accomplished.
The NSX had a 15 year production run and has since been resurrected as a technological tour de force that includes hybrid power and all wheel drive. The early NSX's will forever be appreciated as the most analog of the line, making it a driver's car, extraordinaire. Unlike the Ferrari it targeted and more like the air cooled Porsche 911's available at its time of introduction, owners commonly daily drove their NSX. And like the Porsche, discerning buyers do not fear the well documented higher mileage cars.
This example has been driven and is not cosmetically perfect with a few rock chips earned over the years of dependable service; but don't get me wrong, the car presents extremely well. It has been meticulously maintained with a thick stack of every service ticket (mostly from Acura dealers) dating back to 1990 to prove it. Original tools, owners manual, window sticker and keys accompany the sale. Clear Colorado title and clean accident free Carfax.
The NSX has seen a recent surge in interest by enthusiasts and collectors. Many of these cars were purchased at the bottom of their depreciation curves and were modified, raced and neglected. This is not one of those cars. Buy this car, take care of it and enjoy it and you will never lose money on it.
This NSX is located in Rockwall, Texas and is offered as is, where is. Texas residents may be subject to tax and fees. Low ballers, scammers and sales assistants need not apply. Trades considered; no bikes, boats or planes please. Call, text or reply.
Hi, I'm interested in your 1991 Acura NSX listed for sale on ClassicCars.com for $49,900.00.

Die Hauptfeuerwache Favoriten im 10. Wiener Gemeindebezirk ist eine der neun Hauptfeuerwachen der Berufsfeuerwehr Wien.

Feuerwehr in Favoriten
Die erste Berufsfeuerwehr in Favoriten war im Hause des Gastwirtes Kasimir Reisinger in der Favoritenstraße 65 untergebracht. Zwei Mann und die Unterstützung durch Rauchfangkehrer und Dachdecker war die Mannschaft, die eine Feuerspritze und einen Wasserwagen als Ausrüstung hatten. Nach dem Bau des Amtshauses für den 10. Bezirk in der Laxenburger Straße wurde die Feuerwache dorthin verlegt, in die Berufsfeuerwehr Wien eingegliedert, personell aufgestockt und moderner ausgerüstet.

Baugeschichte
Die Hauptfeuerwache Favoriten in der Sonnwendgasse 14 wurde 1909 als erste Hauptfeuerwache der Berufsfeuerwehr Wien auf dem Gelände des 1899 aufgelassenen Gaswerks Favoriten errichtet. Die Fahrzeughalle mit den fünf Toren entstand aus dem Umbau eines bereits bestehenden Gebäudes (Reiniger-Haus). Daran angebaut war das so genannte Übungshaus, dem Schlauchtrockenturm mit einer vierstöckigen Übungsfassade. Das Offiziersgebäude wurde neu errichtet.

Zwar war die Hauptfeuerwache Favoriten mit fünf Elektroautomobilen ausgerüstet, doch es gab auch noch Reservefahrzeuge für Pferdebespannung und Stallungen samt Nebenräumen (Futterkammer, Geschirrkammer) für sieben Pferde. Während des Zweiten Weltkriegs wurde die Hauptfeuerwache schwer beschädigt, so dass sie großteils neu errichtet und am 6. Oktober 1951 wieder eröffnet wurde. Die dafür notwendigen Pläne stammen vom Architekten Diplom-Ingenieur Brandstätter. Von den ursprünglich errichteten Gebäuden ist nur noch das einzeln stehende ehemalige Wohngebäude für Feuerwehrangehörige erhalten geblieben, das unter Denkmalschutz steht. Der Sockel einer in einer Grünanlage befindlichen Uhr wurde von Wander Bertoni gestaltet.

Einsatzbereich
Die Hauptfeuerwache Favoriten bildet mit der Zugfeuerwache Simmering und der Gruppenwache Rudolfshügel (Favoriten) die Brandschutzsektion 3. Gemeinsam betreuen sie die Bezirke Wieden, Margareten, Favoriten, Simmering sowie Teile der Bezirke Landstraße und Liesing. Im Gebäude versahen 2007 34 Einsatzkräfte, eine Löschbereitschaft, ein Großtanklöschfahrzeug sowie eine Motorradstaffel Dienst.

Local downrange homeowners have announced their opposition to Georgia spaceport
February 1, 2019 9:48 am Robert Zimmerman
Capitalism in space: A local homeowners association today announced its opposition to the proposed commercial spaceport in Camden County, Georgia.
Cumberland and Little Cumberland Islands have just become the first communities in America to be directly downrange from a vertical launch spaceport awaiting license approval from the FAA. More than sixty private homes lie in the path of rockets that Camden County commissioners hope someday to launch.
In the history of U.S. space flight, neither NASA nor the FAA have permitted a vertical launch over private homes or people directly downrange. The risk to people and property from an exploding rocket is too great.
If they are truly downrange from the launchpads, I would say their objection is 100% valid, and the spaceport application should be denied. And I suspect this is true, since the county had an analysis done on this subject but has refused to release it.
Dick Eagleson
I'm not normally much of a fan of eminent domain condemnations but I think this situation might prove a reasonable exception. The proposed Spaceport Camden is unquestionably a transportation-related public use like a road or a rail right-of-way. Given that the only people living on Cumberland and Little Cumberland Islands are a small coterie of rich Democrats who have carefully arranged the islands' mostly wildlife reserve status to limit occupancy and thereby keep out the hoi polloi, it would be especially sweet to expropriate them for the benefit of the mainland proles who stand to benefit from the advent of the Spaceport. But this would certainly be an uphill fight for the same reason that it hasn't historically been places like Pasadena and Beverly Hills that get bulldozed for CA freeways, but places like South-Central L.A. Still, it would seem a worthy project to try putting paid to this little nest of government-protected high property values via a different government-based mechanism. Live by the sword and all that.
Blair Ivey
Dick Eagelson:
Your comment is along the lines of resistance I've considered and occasionally used: using the power of the State against it's most ardent supporters.
On rare occasions I've gotten elected officials involved with recalcitrant bureaucracies, with swift results. It's a nuclear option, but nice to have a government agency call asking what they can do for you.
Steve Weinkle
There is not a single trajectory for even an Electron that does not include multiple homes in the rocket's Launch Hazard Area. Every home is within 3.5 to 10 miles downrange. Ec formulas indicate that only two pieces of debris with 11 ftlbs. of energy exceed the 1:1,000,000 limits if just FIVE residents are present anywhere on Little Cumberland Island. But the spaceport cannot limit the number of people because they are on their own private property. Camden's EIS is for Medium-Heavy lift rockets.
Roads and rails take up discrete amounts of space. A spaceport with 83 to 115 degree trajectories takes up scores of square miles of airspace. Under your theory, an occasional rocket launch justifies the taking of private property that MIGHT be needed someday for a commercial rocket launch. Even liberal interpretations of eminent domain laws do not allow that. Think of the ruckus in Malibu about allowing public access alleys to beaches.
Even by their divine edict, the Georgia legislature cannot condemn the Cumberland Island National Seashore which belongs to all Americans. 100% of the islands, even the private properties held as retained rights and fee simple, are within the borders of the Seashore.
More importantly, your judgement about the owners is prejudiced by your politics. And you're wrong. You don't have a clue about the economic status of the 125 private property owner families on LCI and CI. The ones I know personally are working stiffs, usually two-income families. They might have inherited land, but not wealth. Only a few could be called "rich." Even the descendants of the Rockefellers work hard on Cumberland Island. It might surprise you that land was the ONLY thing left of fortunes from a hundred years ago.
If there were any Kennedys on the Cumberlands I might be inclined to believe you. Most of the current generation of that family have been reduced to mere upper middle class status owing to the complete failure of anyone in that clan to look after the (legal) basis of the family fortune after Old Joe – who made much of his boodle as a bootlegger in the 20's – died. The Rockefellers have, in general, been a lot more effective at maintaining their slices of a very much larger pie and for much longer than the comparatively parvenu Kennedys.
As for the taking of many square miles of once-private land, that was routinely done during America's peak hydroelectric dam-building era. Even if the entirety of the Cumberland Islands was condemned by eminent domain, the total land area involved wouldn't begin to approach the size of a typical dam reservoir created during the TVA's glory days. Roads and rail lines aren't a good analogy here.
Even airports aren't a good analogy as airplanes are far less likely, at least thus far, to fall out of the sky onto regular civilians – should any be under their flightpaths – than are big rockets. Still, planes fly over people all the time and sometimes fall on them. In my own vicinity, for example, there was the Cerritos crash in the 80's. If the odds of a rocket-based repeat of Cerritos is deemed sufficiently probable, then – should the Spaceport Camden project be approved – the local government won't have a lot of choice anent removing the affected residents from potential harm's way.
Let's be clear here; if there weren't any rich people with title to the oxen being potentially gored, there would be no hoo-rah about Spaceport Camden. It would simply go forward, like all public projects that only need to remove regular people always do.
Mary K Gibson
It is my understanding that the NASA facilitiy at Cape Canaveral (Kennedy Space Center) is now open for business of missle launching and that they are "giving away" launch space and time. There is also a new facility open at the Cecil Field NAS in Jacksonville. The Kennedy Space Center is especially well equiped to handle this activity and with the addition of the Cecil Field facility in Jacksonville this is becoming a quite crowded and competitive category. In 1971 the Thiokol explosion left 29 dead and 50 more extremely injured with terrible burns, loss of limbs, sight and other life threatening and life altering conditions. Then in 1986 the Challenger booster rock failure killed the entire crew of that NASA team. The booster rocket had been built at the Thiokol location. The tragic history of the property being considered for purchase by Camden County should give them great pause from proceeding with this project. Then there is the practical side to buying a property KNOWN to be so profoundly polluted that it CAN NOT be cleaned up. As a citizen and tax payer of Camden County I OBJECT to these foolish and headstrong objectives by a group of politicians who appear to be HELL BENT on destroying our community.

Multnomah County Unveils Plans For Addiction and Mental Health Resource Center in Downtown Portland
by Blair Stenvick • Jan 17, 2019 at 3:30 pm
333 SW Park in downtown Portland. GOOGLE MAPS
Plans are underway to build a mental health and addiction resource center geared toward homeless people in downtown Portland. If built, it would be the first of its kind in the county.
The Multnomah County Board of Commissioners approved a purchase agreement Thursday morning for 333 SW Park, a four-story, 30,000-square-foot building located about a block south of W Burnside. This doesn't mean they've purchased the building—yet. A purchase agreement is only the first step in establishing the terms of an eventual purchase.
If the county decides to moves forward with purchasing the building, it will serve as a first stop for people experiencing addiction or mental illness to access temporary and long-term housing, counseling, and peer support, as well basic necessities like showers and phone use.
"It has become very clear there is the need for a peer-led resource center for homeless individuals with mental health and substance abuse issues disorders to receive basic supports to assist them in recovery while experiencing homelessness," said Neal Rotman, the county's community mental health program manager and a leading advocate for the resource center, at the board meeting.
The center would be developed and managed by the Multnomah County Health Department's Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services. According to a document from Thursday's board meeting, county leaders have been hoping to open such a facility "for years."
Advocates of the planned resource center say that it is important the county have a place for people to seek help that doesn't have a barrier to entry, as homeless shelters and treatment centers often do. Rather than requiring people to contact the county and wait for a slot in a program or shelter to open up, they could visit the resource center anytime and receive immediate assistance connecting with the services they need.
Portland currently lacks such a center, meaning homeless people experiencing mental health and addiction crises have few places to turn to for immediate assistance.
Funds to pay for the $4.3 million building would likely come from the sale of the old Multnomah County Courthouse, though they have not been appropriated. It is not yet clear where the county would source development and operating costs.
The City of Portland has not indicated if it will be helping finance the project.
At Thursday's meeting, several commenters and commissioners noted 333 SW Park's ideal location: blocks away from Central City Concern, a homeless services nonprofit, and in close proximity from the North Park Blocks, where many homeless people spend time.
"Nowhere in our community is the intersection between behavioral health and homelessness more concentrated, or more visible, than in downtown Portland," said Chair Deborah Kafoury.
Though the board unanimously approved the purchase agreement, acquiring the building is not yet a done deal. The county still needs to secure funds before the end of the fiscal year.
"We're hopeful that this will be the perfect building for our project," Kafoury said. "And if we decide against moving forward, if we decide this building isn't for us, we'll continue our search for an appropriate property in downtown Portland."

Incidental Radiologic Findings in the 22q11 2 Deletion Syndrome
Although the current study supports several prior findings in the literature in a relatively large sample, there are some limita- tions. First, our estimates of a few incidental findings are lower than those reported elsewhere. These differences may be related to subject ascertainment procedures. Specifically, our study selected for higher functioning subjects and therefore may have underes- timated the true prevalence of any incidentals with direct impact on brain function. The lack of cerebellar findings, in particular, was unexpected, given prior reports of vermian and cerebellar hemispheric abnormalities. 13,16,53 Second, our comparisons be-

potential confound by employing a customised FA brain template derived from all the subjects under study, aiming to minimise both the degree of warping needed for any individual subject, and bias in such warping between the groups. Increased FA did not remain significant in 22q11DS when we included IQ as a covariate, although this may simply reflect a loss of sensitivity (i.e. a type II error) due to the inclusion of two strongly correlated variables (IQ and group) in the analysis (Miller and Chapman 2001). Compared to previous DTI reports in 22q11DS, our study is the first to covary for IQ, and this combined with template considerations (i.e. our use of a study specific template), may have resulted in our findings differing from other work.
Anatomic Malformations of the Middle and Inner Ear in 22q11 2 Deletion Syndrome: Case Series and Literature Review
Of approximately 300 patients followed at the University Medical Center Utrecht and the 1300 patients from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, 26 patients (52 ears), 14 males and 12 females, un- derwent radiologic imaging of the temporal bones (11 patients from the University Medical Center Utrecht, 15 patients from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia). The indications for imaging were hearing loss that could not be explained by otoscopic find- ings (n ⫽ 10), chronic otitis media (n ⫽ 13), both unexplained hearing loss and chronic otitis media (n ⫽ 2), or aureal atresia (n ⫽ 1). MR imaging was performed in 1 patient; all other patients underwent CT of the temporal bones. One patient likely had a second genetic disorder, in addition to a microdeletion on chro- mosome 22q11.2.
Neural correlates of reward processing in adults with 22q11 deletion syndrome
Interestingly, similarities in the reward anticipation network exist between 22q11DS and the schizophrenia spectrum. In line with our findings in 22q11DS, previous studies in unmedicated schizophrenia patients showed reduced activity in the cingulate gyrus [49, 56] and a re- cent study in siblings of schizophrenia patients, at in- creased genetic risk for schizophrenia, found fronto- striatal dysfunctioning during reward anticipation [57]. Behavioural studies furthermore found evidence for im- paired functioning on reward tasks that depend on cor- tical regions in people with schizophrenia, which is in line with our results and suggested to be associated with negative symptoms [58, 59]. Interestingly, the clinical pattern in 22q11DS is also characterized by predominant negative symptoms [60, 61].
22q11 deletion syndrome: a review of the neuropsychiatric features and their neurobiological basis
Abstract: The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is caused by an autosomal dominant microdeletion of chromosome 22 at the long arm (q) 11.2 band. The 22q11DS is among the most clinically variable syndromes, with more than 180 features related with the deletion, and is associated with an increased risk of psychiatric disorders, accounting for up to 1%–2% of schizophrenia cases. In recent years, several genes located on chromosome 22q11 have been linked to schizophrenia, including those encoding catechol-O-methyltransferase and proline dehydrogenase, and the interaction between these and other candidate genes in the deleted region is an important area of research. It has been suggested that haploinsufficiency of some genes within the 22q11.2 region may contribute to the characteristic psychiatric phenotype and cognitive functioning of schizophrenia. Moreover, an extensive literature on neuroimaging shows reductions of the volumes of both gray and white matter, and these findings suggest that this reduction may be predictive of increased risk of prodromal psychotic symptoms in 22q11DS patients. Experimental and standardized cognitive assessments alongside neuroimaging may be important to identify one or more endophenotypes of schizophrenia, as well as a predictive prodrome that can be preventively treated during childhood and adolescence. In this review, we summarize recent data about the 22q11DS, in particular those addressing the neuropsychiatric and cognitive phenotypes associated with the deletion, underlining the recent advances in the studies about the genetic architecture of the syndrome.
Linguistic and Nonverbal Abilities over Time in a Child Case of 22q11 Deletion Syndrome
The aim of this study is to profile the cognitive–linguistic performance of a male child (P.I.) with 22q11 deletion syndrome (22q11DS). Specifically, receptive and expressive language performance and nonverbal IQ (NVIQ) are described at two different time points—when P.I. was 6 and 10 years of age, respectively. Using case-based methodology, P.I.'s NVIQ and perform- ance on global and structured language tasks are compared to typically developing children of the same chronological age and school-aged children with specific language impairment (SLI). The results show no improvement in NVIQ or vocabulary, but his morphosyntactic abilities did improve over time. The findings are discussed in relation to two hypotheses, either that the profile of language impairment in children with 22q11DS is distinctive to the syndrome or that there is co-morbidity with SLI. This is particularly important for speech–language therapists who have a primary role in diagnosing communication deficits and providing treatment.
Seizures as the first manifestation of chromosome 22q11 2 deletion syndrome in a 40 year old man: a case report
Case presentation: A 40-year-old man without significant past medical history presented with a new-onset generalized tonic-clonic seizure. He had no personal history of hypocalcemia or seizures. Physical examination was remarkable for short stature, hypertelorism, prominent forehead and nasal voice. His initial laboratory examination showed hypocalcemia (Calcium 5.2 mg/ dl and Calcium ionized 0.69 mmol/l) with hypoparathyroidism (Parathyroid hormone intact < 2.5 pg/ml. NV: 14–72 pg/ml). Urine Calcium was 3 mg/dl on a spot and 88 mg in a 24-hour urine collection (NV: 100–300 mg/24 hs). The electrocardiogram showed a prolonged corrected QT interval. Echocardiogram, abdominal ultrasound and electroencephalogram were normal. A computer tomography of the brain showed basal ganglia calcification. The subtle physical findings and the presence of idiopathic hypoparathyroidism motivated the performance of fluorescent in situ hybridization which demonstrated a microdeletion on one of the homologs 22q11.2. The patient was treated with calcium citrate and calcitriol with good response.
Olfactory Disorder in Children With 22q11 Deletion Syndrome
Other medical conditions also might contribute to olfactory disorder in children with 22q11DS, perhaps the most common of which is VPI. Medical charts indicated that 49% of affected children in this sample were posi- tive for VPI. Given the relatively small sample size, the VPI group included children with and without a history of corrective flap surgery (a surgically created flap does not resolve altered airway patency). No differences were found in the UPSIT scores of affected children with and without a history of VPI. However, sample distribution characteristics importantly inform these findings. The variance of UPSIT scores in affected children with VPI was significantly lower, and, interestingly, lowest among those without a history of surgical correction (Table 1), perhaps indirectly indicating a consistent negative im- pact of (uncorrected) VPI on olfaction in children with 22q11DS. At the same time, an additional analysis that compared only affected children without VPI and sib- lings substantiated a large group difference in odor de- tection. Olfactory disorder in this population seems to have multiple determinants. These findings require rep- lication and additional study.
Radiologic findings of thoracic trauma
Because MDCT has been established as the gold standard for imaging evaluation of chest trauma and is used more frequently, radiologists should better familiarize themselves with MDCT findings of chest trauma. Herein, we aimed to present the MDCT findings in patients with blunt and penetrating chest trauma admitted to our department.

Clinical and radiologic findings in progressive facial hemiatrophy (Parry Romberg syndrome)
rophy and demonstrates the first phases of a chronic, progressive disease course that is punctuated by acute exacerbations. We dis- agree with Fry et al (1), who discounted the theory of a trigeminal or sympathetic innerva- tion abnormality. Instead, we favor the hypoth- esis of hyperactivity of the sympathetic nervous system, specifically, inflammation of the supe- rior cervical ganglion in a young patient, as the cause of progressive facial hemiatrophy. The division of the sympathetic nervous system into right and left and the distribution of medial and lateral internal carotid nerve branches provide an anatomic basis for the unilateral facial and intracranial manifestations of the disease. The hyperactive vasomotor tone of the intracranial vasculature might explain migraine symptom- atology and normal cerebral angiography. Last, recent animal studies and clinical series lend support to the hyperactive sympathetic nervous system hypothesis as the etiologic mechanism responsible for progressive hemifacial atrophy syndrome (8 –11).
Blood brain barrier regulation in psychiatric disorders
Further evidence for di ff erences in the BBB in ASD comes from di- rect examination of the BBB itself. The endothelial adhesion molecules platelet endothelial adhesion molecule-1 and P-selectin have been shown to be downregulated in children with ASD, suggestive of im- paired transport of leukocytes across the BBB in ASD [144]. In post- mortem brain tissue samples, there are a number of changes in the tight junction proteins that are suggestive of an altered BBB in the cortex and the cerebellum (Table 2) [154]. Interestingly, Fiorentino and colleagues also showed that there were disruptions in at least one tight junction- related protein (occludin or claudin-1) in 75% of biopsies made in the small intestine but these fi ndings did not reach signi fi cance overall. They did find that pore-forming proteins (claudin-2, -10, and -15) were signi fi cantly increased in ASD small intestine, re fl ecting a more permeable intestinal barrier [154]. This relationship between neuro- logical and gastrointestinal barrier disruption in ASD remains an im- portant area for future research given the high levels of gastrointestinal problems associated with ASD [155] and the proposed interactions between the gut microbiome, inflammation, and neurological symp- toms of ASD [156–159].
Absent Semicircular Canals in CHARGE Syndrome: Radiologic Spectrum of Findings
with a trapped cochlea. One enlarged vestibular aqueduct was associated with a dysplastic modiolus, and 3 were associated with a hypoplastic apical turn. An enlarged vestibular aque- duct is known to have an association with cochlear dysplasia. Twelve of 26 patients had a reversed angle to the vestibular aqueduct with a posteromedial orientation instead of the nor- mal posterolateral orientation. An abnormal vestibular aque- duct orientation has not been reported in the radiologic liter- ature so far. This anomaly is hypothesized to be the result of semicircular aplasia and the associated displacement of nor- mal surrounding structures.
Capitate-trapezoid synostosis: analysis of an Early Bronze Age case and review of the literature
Carpal coalitions are well-acknowledged anatomi- cal variants, which have been reported in nearly every possible combination. The most frequent pattern recorded in the literature is the lunate-triquetral syn- ostosis [14, 39, 42]. From a paleopathological per- spective, the most ancient case of synostosis of carpal bones, namely a lunate-triquetral coalition, was found in a Neanderthal individual dated at 74.000 to 68.000 years BP [32]. In contrast, CTS has a very uncommon occurrence [14, 39, 42], with only sparse data avail- able in the literature. Of note, a systematic review of the existing literature on CTS is currently lacking. To the best of our knowledge, the case here described is the most ancient CTS ever found in a modern Homo sapiens. The modern literature on CTS goes back to 1883, when Anderson [3] provided the first account of this type of anomaly. At first glance, literature records appear rather heterogeneous. Some CTS de- scriptions refer to individuals, others to dissected wrists. Some cases were noticed as incidental find- ings, e.g., by sampling isolated bones, or during au- topsy or observation of radiographic images (Fig. 5). Disappointingly, in several studies the number and sex of affected individuals, as well as the affected side and the frequency of bilateral forms are not specified. Clinical correlates are rarely reported as well. Thus, many of the previously published cases are poorly documented. As a matter of fact, little can be drown about the general characteristics of this type of synostosis. Being the sample too small to allow conclusive data, a descriptive summary of demographic, anatomical and clinical characteristics of the CTS population is presented in Table 2.
A review of the issues surrounding incidental findings on CT attenuation correction (CTAC ) images during SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging
Results of lung cancer screening trials suggest that there needs to be a balance between early intervention to reduce mortality and risks of early morbidity and mortality from unnecessary intervention; mortality must be reduced and the benefits to the patient must outweigh the risks (6),(7). Lung cancer screening with CT has not been adopted universally because of the high rate of false-positive findings and over-diagnosis of indolent tumours that might not have become significant in a patient's lifetime. These findings have cost implications as well as increasing patient anxiety and morbidity (9).
The practice of reporting pulmonary nodules as incidental findings in the radiology department at the ZGT
Specifically for the follow-up policy of pulmonary nodules, the ZGT aims to follow the Fleischner guidelines of 2017. The Fleischner guidelines were designed to set a standard for follow-up policies that best fit certain risk-profiles. Here, the variables multiplicity, patient's risk-profile, morphology and the size of the pulmonary nodules are used to distinguish which policy is required for the patients [6]. McMahon et al (2017) reports the guidelines for the management of incidental pulmonary nodules by the Fleischner society, which can be displayed in a decision tree (see appendix 1). According to McMahon et al (2017), patients with pulmonary nodules that have a size of less than six millimetres do not require to receive follow-up. Only when these patients have a high risk profile, the guidelines recommend an optional 12 month follow-up [6]. The exception is for when there is an occurrence of multiple sub-solid lesions, which require a follow-up period of three to six months. When the diameter of the largest pulmonary nodule exceeds the six millimetres, follow-up is recommended in all cases. The required period is then dependent on other risk factors for malignancy [6]. The period for follow-up is determined by the pulmonologist. The role of the radiologist is to ensure that the findings are communicated to the pulmonologist and recommendations can be given for follow-up.
Deletion 22q13.3 syndrome
Behavioral features of Phelan-McDermid syndrome include poor eye contact, stereotypic movements, decreased socialization, and language impairment con- sistent with autism spectrum disorders [6-10]. About 3– 6% of autistic individuals have a chromosome abnormal- ity identified by standard karyotyping. Deletion 22q13 has been shown to be one of the common chromosome defects associated with autism [4]. The term "syndromic autism" has been suggested for autism accompanied by dysmorphic features and the 22q13 deletion syndrome was cited as an example of a genetic disorder characterized by autistic behavior [11]. Other specific behavioral char- acteristics include: chewing/mouthing of non-food items, teeth grinding, tongue thrusting and aggressive behavior [10].
Craniopharyngioma: radiologic and histologic findings and recurrence
Pertinent data, including radiologic and pathologic findings, treatment, and tumor re- currence, for the 45 patients are summarized in Table 1. The 10 patients treated initially at other institutions between 1966 and 1986 are not in- cluded in the drawings of the radiologic appear- ances of the tumors as depicted in Figure 2. Eight additional patients had only postoperative CT or MR studies available; these are noted in Table 1. Because no actual measurements of preoperative tumor volume or estimates of pre- operative tumor composition volumes could be made in these eight patients, line drawings of these tumors are not included in Figure 2. How- ever, the presence or absence of calcium and cyst was noted in Table 1 from information available in the charts and postoperative im- ages.
Respiratory Failure and Hypercoagulability in a Toddler With Lemierre's Syndrome
F necrophorum was isolated from 2 sets of blood cultures that were taken on admission. CSF culture was sterile. Culture from the ear discharge was positive for Streptococcus pneumonia and Haemophilus influenzae. Serologic studies showed an elevated an- tistreptolysin O titer of 347 IU/mL and immunoglobulin M titers for Epstein-Barr virus and cytomegalovirus were negative.
Two patients with chromosome 22q11 2 deletion presenting with childhood obesity and hyperphagia
She initially had no feeding problems, however following weaning to solids she developed a large appetite. At 13 months, following surgery for the correction of patent ductus arteriosus, she started gaining weight. By age 6 her weight was on the 99 th centile (37.4kg), height was on the 91 st (121.3cm) and head circumference between the 2 nd and 9 th (50cm). Her parents experienced difficulties in controling her constant, food-seeking behaviour. She developed significant truncal obesity with gynaecomastia.

Vice President Biden, Mr. Chief Justice, members of the United States Congress, distinguished guests, and fellow citizens, each time we gather to inaugurate a president, we bear witness to the enduring strength of our Constitution. We affirm the promise of our democracy. We recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names.
What makes us exceptional, what makes us America is our allegiance to an idea articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.
That they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, and among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Today we continue a never ending journey to bridge the meaning of those words with the realities of our time. For history tells us that while these truths may be self-evident, they've never been self-executing. That while freedom is a gift from God, it must be secured by his people here on earth.
The patriots of 1776 did not fight to replace the tyranny of a king with the privileges of a few, or the rule of a mob. They gave to us a republic, a government of, and by, and for the people. Entrusting each generation to keep safe our founding creed. And for more than 200 years we have. Through blood drawn by lash, and blood drawn by sword, we noted that no union founded on the principles of liberty and equality could survive half slave, and half free.
Together we determined that a modern economy requires railroads and highways to speed travel and commerce, schools and colleges to train our workers. Together we discovered that a free market only thrives when there are rules to ensure competition and fair play. Together we resolve that a great nation must care for the vulnerable and protect its people from life's worst hazards and misfortune.
Through it all, we have never relinquished our skepticism of central authority, nor have we succumbed to the fiction that all societies ills can be cured through government alone. Our celebration of initiative and enterprise, our insistence on hard work and personal responsibility, these are constants in our character.
For we have always understood that when times change, so must we, that fidelity to our founding principles requires new responses to new challenges, that preserving our individual freedoms ultimately requires collective action.
For the American people can no more meet the demands of today's world by acting alone than American soldiers could have met the forces of fascism or communism with muskets and militias. No single person can train all the math and science teachers we'll need to equip our children for the future. Or build the roads and networks and research labs that will bring new jobs and businesses to our shores.
Now, more than ever, we must do these things together, as one nation, and one people.
This generation of Americans has been tested by crises that steeled (ph) our resolve and proved our resilience. A decade of war is now ending.
And economic recovery has begun.
America's possibilities are limitless, for we possess all the qualities that this world without boundaries demands: youth and drive, diversity and openness, of endless capacity for risk and a gift for reinvention.
My fellow Americans, we are made for this moment and we will seize it, so long as we seize it together.
We believe that America's prosperity must rest upon the broad shoulders of a rising middle class. We know that America thrives when every person can find independence and pride in their work, when the wages of honest labor will liberate families from the brink of hardship.
We are true to our creed when a little girl born into the bleakest poverty knows that she has the same chance to succeed as anybody else because she is an American, she is free, and she is equal not just in the eyes of God but also in our own.
We understand that outworn (ph) programs are inadequate to the needs of our time. So we must harness new ideas and technology to remake our government, revamp our tax code, reform our schools, and empower our citizens with the skills they need to work hard or learn more, reach higher.
But while the means will change, our purpose endures. A nation that rewards the effort and determination of every single American, that is what this moment requires. That is what will give real meaning to our creed.
We, the people, still believe that every citizen deserves a basic measure of security and dignity. We must make the hard choices to reduce the cost of health care and the size of our deficit.
For we remember the lessons of our past, when twilight years were spent in poverty and parents of a child with a disability had nowhere to turn. We do not believe that in this country freedom is reserved for the lucky or happiness for the few. We recognize that no matter how responsibly we live our lives, any one of us at any time may face a job loss or a sudden illness or a home swept away in a terrible storm. The commitments we make to each other through Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security, these things do not sap our initiative.
They do not make us a nation of takers. They free us to take the risks that make this country great.
We cannot cede to other nations the technology that will power new jobs and new industries. We must claim its promise. That's how we will maintain our economic vitality and our national treasure, our forests and waterways, our crop lands and snow capped peaks. That is how we will preserve our planet, commanded to our care by God. That's what will lend meaning to the creed our fathers once declared.
We, the people, still believe that enduring security and lasting peace do not require perpetual war.
Our brave men and women in uniform tempered by the flames of battle are unmatched in skill and courage.
Our citizens seared by the memory of those we have lost, know too well the price that is paid for liberty. The knowledge of their sacrifice will keep us forever vigilant against those who would do us harm. But we are also heirs to those who won the peace, and not just the war. Who turn sworn enemies into the surest of friends. And we must carry those lessons into this time as well. We will defend our people, and uphold our values through strength of arms, and the rule of law.
We will show the courage to try and resolve our differences with other nations peacefully. Not because we are naive about the dangers we face, but because engagement can more durably lift suspicion and fear.
America will remain the anchor of strong alliances in every corner of the globe. And we will renew those institutions that extend our capacity to manage crisis abroad. For no one has a greater stake in a peaceful world than its most powerful nation. We will support democracy from Asia to Africa, from the Americas to the Middle East, because our interests and our conscience compel us to act on behalf of those who long for freedom. And we must be a source of hope to the poor, the sick, the marginalized, the victims of prejudice.
Not out of mere charity, but because peace in our time requires the constant advance of those principles that our common creed describes; tolerance and opportunity, human dignity and justice. We the people declare today that the most evident of truth that all of us are created equal -- is the star that guides us still; just as it guided our forebears through Seneca Falls and Selma and Stonewall; just as it guided all those men and women, sung and unsung, who left footprints along this great mall, to hear a preacher say that we cannot walk alone; to hear a King proclaim that our individual freedom is inextricably bound to the freedom of every soul on Earth.
It is now our generation's task to carry on what those pioneers began, for our journey is not complete until our wives, our mothers and daughters can earn a living equal to their efforts.
Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law, for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal, as well.
Our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land of opportunity, until bright young students and engineers are enlisted in our workforce rather than expelled from our country.
Our journey is not complete until all our children, from the streets of Detroit to the hills of Appalachia to the quiet lanes of Newtown, know that they are cared for and cherished and always safe from harm.
That is our generation's task, to make these works, these rights, these values of life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness real for every American.
Being true to our founding documents does not require us to agree on every contour of life. It does not mean we all define liberty in exactly the same way or follow the same precise path to happiness.
Progress does not compel us to settle century's long debates about the role of government for all time, but it does require us to act in our time.
For now, decisions are upon us and we cannot afford delay. We cannot mistake absolutism for principle or substitute spectacle for politics, or treat name-calling as reasoned debate.
We must act. We must act knowing that our work will be imperfect (ph). We must act knowing that today's victories will be only partial, and that it will be up to those who stand here in four years and 40 years and 400 years hence to advance the timeless spirit once conferred to us in a spare Philadelphia hall.
My fellow Americans, the oath I have sworn before you today, like the one recited by others who serve in this Capitol, was an oath to God and country, not party or faction.
And we must faithfully execute that pledge during the duration of our service. But the words I spoke today are not so different from the oath that is taken each time a soldier signs up for duty, or an immigrant realizes her dream.
My oath is not so different from the pledge we all make to the flag that waves above and that fills our hearts with pride. They are the words of citizens, and they represent our greatest hope. You and I, as citizens, have the power to set this country's course. You and I, as citizens, have the obligation to shape the debates of our time, not only with the votes we cast, but the voices we lift in defense of our most ancient values and enduring ideas.
Let us each of us now embrace with solemn duty, and awesome joy, what is our lasting birthright. With common effort and common purpose, with passion and dedication, let us answer the call of history and carry into an uncertain future that precious light of freedom.
And may He forever bless these United States of America.

Codiaeum variegatum (L.) Rumph. ex A.Juss. è una pianta arbustiva appartenente alla famiglia delle Euforbiacee, originaria della Malesia, dell'Indonesia e di varie isole del Pacifico.

È l'unica coltivata come pianta ornamentale tra le varie specie di arbusti con fogliame persistente del genere Codiaeum.

Descrizione
Ha foglie coriacee, persistenti e lucide, di forma e dimensione diverse, talvolta oblunghe simili a quelle della magnolia, talaltra lineari o lobate a seconda delle numerose varietà, con colori screziati che variano dal verde al giallo, rosa, rosso, viola, arancio con macchiettature più o meno regolari, zonate, a volte disposte lungo le nervature dove di solito la colorazione è più intensa. Le foglie apicali giovani sono generalmente di colore verde screziato.

I fiori monoici sono disposti in grappoli ascellari. È una pianta da serra caldo-umida dove raggiunge dimensioni notevoli (oltre il metro); non si adatta bene, invece, a vivere negli appartamenti, dove a stento raggiunge il mezzo metro.

Coltivazione
Pianta di non facile coltivazione in appartamento, in quanto esige ambienti caldo-umidi a temperatura costante, ben soleggiati, con innaffiature regolari e abbondanti in estate, ma non sulle foglie. Se tenuta in un ambiente troppo secco le foglie progressivamente ingialliscono e cadono; la temperatura non deve mai scendere sotto i 16-18 °C, pena l'afflosciamento e la caduta delle foglie.

Richiede terriccio di bosco o di foglie con sfagno con un buon drenaggio, non eccessivamente fertile per non limitare la fioritura. Si rinvasa o rinterra in primavera, anche se si consiglia di sostituire frequentemente le piante per i problemi visti precedentemente.
Essendo una pianta a rapido accrescimento va concimata spesso durante il periodo di crescita vale a dire in primavera-estate.

La moltiplicazione avviene in primavera per talea o margotta in serra calda, utilizzando piante ottenute con la semina in serra, facendo attenzione al lattice biancastro che fuoriesce dai tagli, in quanto può causare reazione allergiche con rash cutanei per contatto; se ingerito causa nausea, vomito e diarrea in persone sensibili al principio attivo presente (il forbolo, un estere diterpenoide).

Avversità
È una pianta molto delicata. Teme il freddo, le correnti d'aria, un ambiente troppo secco, rispondendo con la progressiva e irreversibile perdita del fogliame.

L'eccesso di ristagno idrico provoca il marciume radicale per attacchi fungini.

Viene anche frequentemente attaccato da acari, afidi e cocciniglie; in India sono stati segnalati attacchi da parte dei coleotteri Cerambicidi Xylotrechus smei e Xylotrechus subscutellatus.

Understanding and responding to "anti-sanctuary city" legislation
Produced for the 85th Texas Legislative session (2017)
The state of Texas has changed the relationship of local law enforcement with the Immigration Control Enforcement agency. The bishops of Texas oppose the legislation, S.B. 4, known colloquially as the "anti-sanctuary city" bill, and encourage Catholics throughout Texas to learn more about their own Fourth Amendment rights and how they can make their communities safer and more welcoming to immigrants.
Pray for our police, who sacrifice to keep us safe; for migrants, who seek a better life for their families; for our leaders, who seek the common good; and for ourselves, that we all may be worthy of the promises of Christ. You can also:

Understand the law
S.B. 4 changes the relationship between ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and local police in two ways: first, police must comply with ICE requests to transfer local prisoners to ICE custody. If a sheriff or police chief releases an arrested person when ICE requests detention, they will be removed from office and punished with a $4,000 fine and/or 1 year in jail. Second, local governments must allow their police and attorneys to:
inquire into the legal status of a person who is arrested or detained,
send information about legal status to ICE,
help ICE enforce immigration law, and
permit ICE to enter local jails.
Police are allowed, for example, to ask for the legal status of someone stopped for a traffic violation. If a local government prohibits police and attorneys from carrying out these four actions, the government will be punished with a $25,000 fine per day. In addition, the leaders will be removed from office.
Exclusions. S.B. 4 does not apply to churches, hospitals, school districts, charter schools, public health departments, or community centers serving the mentally ill. In other words, employees of these institutions — including off-duty police — can be prohibited from carrying out the four actions above.
Second, local governments can prohibit on-duty police from enforcing immigration law in a church.
Last, police can ask witnesses or victims to a crime about their legal status only if the investigation requires it, or to provide information about the S Visa Program, which offers 250 visas each year to migrants who help police investigate criminal organizations.
Learn why the bishops oppose S.B. 4
Learn why the bishops opposed S.B. 4
We support the right of a sovereign nation to ensure the integrity of its borders and to enforce its laws. All residents in the U.S. are obliged to respect with gratitude the material and spiritual heritage of this nation, obey its laws, and assist in carrying out civic duties.
At the same time, governments are established to protect individuals' God-given rights. We object when laws do not do so, such as when due process is not upheld. The U.S. immigration system, for example, is frequently absent of legal representation for migrants, lacks sufficient judges, and is reliant on large-scale detention. In many cases, migrants go through proceedings without impartial adjudicators, such as a jury of citizens.
In the long-term, we must address the deepest causes of flight: poverty, gang violence, climate change, and corruption. All governments should protect their residents' God-given rights so that all people can live in their native country with dignity. In the short-term, we must improve our immigration system in a comprehensive way. In other words, both admittance requirements and enforcement must be addressed. To focus on only one of these, as S.B. 4 does, neglects the common good.
Finally, we opposed S.B. 4 because it charges our local police with enforcing immigration law. Specifically, S.B. 4 allows individual police officers to inquire into legal status, which will hurt trust between migrants and police. This damages communication, which is essential to community policing, and makes our communities less safe. The bill's promise to protect victims and witnesses is not reassuring because of the S Visa's small size and because the spirit of the law — which focuses only on enforcement — treats immigration as a problem.
In sum, S.B. 4 neglects Christ's call to welcome the stranger and undermines our nation's heritage to offer the light of freedom to the oppressed.
Know your own 4th Amendment rights: ICE cannot enter your business, home, church or children's school without a search warrant. Learn what a valid search warrant is by visiting Catholic Legal Immigration Network's (CLINIC) website.
Provide Know Your Rights cards at your business or workplace. Ask your children's school, your doctor, local media, and law enforcement to consider distributing them. You can download and print copies from this page.
Encourage your co-workers, neighbors, family members, and friends who are migrants to consider becoming U.S. citizens or apply for legal status. An online screening tool is available and Catholic Charities offers free legal services to help in this process.
Organize a Know Your Rights workshop with resources from CLINIC which covers:
what you need to know and do when encountering law enforcement in different places
information about how to read a warrant
twelve things for you and your family to remember in any situation

a step-by-step plan for what to do if a loved is detained
Facts and resources
Immigrants make up 17% of Texas' population. A coalition of mayors and business leaders have found the economic impact of immigrants to be positive on the US economy. Texas immigrants are far more likely to be of working age than the US-born population.
About 15% of non-citizens are eligible to receive legal status, but they often don't have access to legal assistance or screening resources to seek relief.
Occupations with the highest share of foreign-born workers in Texas are: painters and maintenance work (60%), maids and housecleaning (60%), grounds maintenance (51%) and construction (50%). Businesses, workers, and customers all benefit from these relationships.
The U.S. detains about 400,000 people each year, more than double the number detained in 2004.
Last federal fiscal year Texas resettled 7,803 refugees, taking about 10% of all refugees allowed into the United States in that time period.
More than 8 million people living in the United States are eligible to become US citizens; only about eight percent of them seek citizenship each year.
In sum, the federal agencies working on immigration are frequently bureaucratic, punitive, and ineffective. People are frequently detained for an indeterminate time, due to a tremendous backlog in the judicial system. This is destructive to family life, creates a cynicism toward American institutions, and denies basic human dignity to migrants.

Following Wel-Com's feature on leadership last month and a focus on family in this issue, we have invited prominent New Zealand leader, and Catholic, Chief of Defence Lieutenant General Tim Keating MNZM to contribute his thoughts on these two themes.
In my view, you never stop learning – even when you reach the pinnacle of your career, have a family or maybe decide you want to go back 'to study' later in life.
Everyday I know I learn more about human nature, what motivates or conversely demotivates people and what a challenge it can sometimes be to lead through all this.
In my world, a military world, leadership is a concept that we spend most of our careers learning to master.
From the moment we join the Defence Force you are encouraged to be a leader of self first, then a selfless leader of others, and all our training emphasises this approach.
In the traditional sense, family leadership is taught through generations, but the modern world poses many difficulties to that model as intergenerational bad practices can be passed on.
Military and family leadership are in many ways synonymous.
Parents must show true leadership to their children because it is their responsibility to influence them by demonstrating that you love and care for them deeply and want them to have a successful life.
Like military leadership, children learn best by example.
The concept that we, as servant leaders, look to serve our followers by helping them to achieve their own potential, enables me as the Chief of Defence, to concentrate on how my decisions can create effective relationships with our people and their families.
In serving our military families, I must be aware of the impact the decisions I make have on the families as these decisions can either enable or disable the Defence Force's ability to perform its role.
There is a long held truism in the Defence Force that a happy family means the service person can concentrate on their important and often demanding role.
As the leader of around 14,000 people I am well aware that the decisions I make often impact on individuals and their families and the consequence this can affect the organisation longer term.
My goal is to continue to support a leadership culture where our people and their families are treated with the understanding required for our Force to continue to deliver its demanding role as a 'Force for Good' for New Zealand.

Q: Conductor: navigate to a Controller without adding it to backstack I am implementing some navigation with Conductor library. So basically, from a certain Controller, no matter how far I navigate from it, on the back press, I want to be able to return to it (from any further Controller).
Now I tried to do something like:
router.backstack.remove(router.backstackSize)

onCreateView for new controller, as I thought, to remove the newly added controller, but that does not work.

A: One of the easy ways to do this is to use something like router.popToTag(controller.tag()) which will pop any controllers off of the backstack that are on top of the controller.
The other way, if this is going to be the bottom most controller is to use router.setRoot(...) in your Activities controller. (router.hasRootController() can let you know if this has already been done) Then returning to "home" is just a matter of router.popToRoot()
