VA ACCUSED OF FOOT-DRAGGING IN NOTIFYING "TEST VETS" -- VETERANS
EXPOSED TO CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL AGENTS ARE STILL WAITING FOR
NOTIFICATION FROM THE VA -- WHY IS THIS? -- ONE VET SAYS: "THEY
REALLY DON'T WANT TO DO IT...IF YOU WAIT LONG ENOUGH,
WE'LL ALL BE DEAD."
It's time for the VA to get off the dime and resolve this issue.
There is no reason for "Test Vets" to die while waiting.
Unless...that reason is money!

VA: Foot-dragging seen
By Lisa Friedman, From our Washington bureauWASHINGTON —
Thousands of former servicemen who volunteered for chemical and
biological tests in the 1960s and 70s might have been exposed to
highly toxic substances that could jeopardize their health, and the
U.S. government is scrambling to locate them.The new list of nearly
7,000 names provided last year to the Department of Veterans Affairs
servicemen who allowed themselves to be exposed to a range of
agents, from nerve gases to Tularemia significantly increases the
number of veterans who could become eligible for disability benefits.
VA officials say they are working as quickly as possible to verify
the identities of the servicemen and the agents to which they were
exposed, and to send out notifications. But veterans' advocates and
some members of Congress note the government took more than a decade
to notify World War II personnel they'd been exposed to chemical
tests, and they're already skeptical of the pace this time around.
"You want to believe that they're serious, but there is, from my
perspective, a lack of trust," said Rep. Ted Strickland, D-Ohio, the
leading Democrat on the House Veterans Affairs Oversight and
Investigations Subcommittee. "I don't want to be cynical here, but
quite often the strategy of the department may be to let time
pass."Years of testsThe United States has conducted chemical and
biological tests since before the Civil War.
During World War II which has been called the "unfought chemical
war" both sides produced, yet never used, millions of tons of
chemical weapons.In the meantime, thousands of servicemen were used
as subjects in the chemical defense research. Many tests continued
through the 1970s.Army historian Jeffrey Smart has spent the past 22
years at Aberdeen Proving Ground, formerly the Edgewood Arsenal,
where many of the chemical tests particularly on protective
equipment were conducted.He said documents show the men knew they
were participating in potentially dangerous tests, but not the
specific agents being used.
Ken Jones of Riverside said he knew exactly what he was doing when
he volunteered in 1954 to be among 2,300 subjects in a germ-warfare
project known as Operation White Coat.The studies, which ran from
1954 to 1973, used mostly Seventh-day Adventist draftees like Jones
whose religious beliefs discouraged combat and who were instead
given the option of serving as human test volunteers.While many
veterans later said they felt pressured to sign the consent forms,
Jones said he never felt coerced.'Eight Ball'He can still recall the
day he and two other men exchanged their fatigues for scrubs and
entered the fabled "Eight Ball" at Fort Detrick, Md. a 1-million-
liter test sphere used to study static microbial aerosols and
strapped on gas masks before breathing in Q-fever for about five
"I'm not going to be out on the streets protesting, because I feel
like what I did was a benefit to humanity," Jones said, noting that
the tests helped the government develop hazmat suits, gas masks and
vaccines.Jones went into quarantine for 17 days and says he never
developed health problems from the experience.
Many others did, though, and Jones thinks the government should help
those veterans.House Veterans Affairs Committee aide Len Sistek said
that's the goal of notifying veterans. The new list his staff
provided to the government includes the names of military personnel
who underwent testing at Fort Detrick; Edgewood Arsenal, now known
as Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland; and Dougway Proving Ground
in Utah."There's been a sea change in how America perceives this
stuff," he said. "Whoever allowed the bad guy to get ahead of them
with chemical or biological weaponry was at a huge disadvantage on
the battlefield. It was part of the war effort."Still, he and others
argued, the government has a responsibility to provide benefits to
those who did experience health problems.
"When you sign on the dotted line, you sign up for a broad spectrum
of risks. But just because you were a volunteer does not mean
America doesn't have a duty to you
."VA concernedLeaders at the Department of Veterans Affairs said
they agree."Obviously we're concerned, and we want to provide
outreach to anyone who may have been harmed by toxic chemical
tests," said Thomas Pamperin, VA assistant director for policy.He
and Kim Tibbitts, the agency's assistant director for procedures for
compensation and pension services, said they first have to determine
who the servicemen are and what agents they were exposed to. Many
names on the list, Tibbitts said, include only a name but no Social
Security number, and identify chemicals by codes that must be
tracked down with the Department of Defense.
From there, he said, the agency plans to use personnel records and
address locating services to determine if the serviceman is still
living, or has surviving relatives.In the notification letters,
Pamperin said, veterans will be told the chemical they were exposed
to and the dosage, and be encouraged to seek hospital tests to
determine if they suffered related injuries."If and, hopefully, none
of them have been harmed they will receive the kind of compensation
they're entitled to," Pamperin said.Rick Weidman of the Vietnam
Veterans of America accused the VA of dragging its feet."The VA is
incredibly slow," he said. "They don't really want to do it. They
will screw around with that list for a year or longer, and then
they'll say they cannot find a lot of the veterans. If you wait long
enough, we'll all be dead."Notices comingPamperin strongly disputed
the criticisms."I understand that some frustrated veterans believe
that to be true," he said. "Our responsibility is to implement
(veterans' benefits) to the full extent Congress has authorized it,
without regard to how much is spent," he said.Noting that over the
past five years about 200,000 veterans have successfully sought
compensation, he said, "I am unaware of anyone who has been formally
or informally been telling us to slow down our ratings to save
money."Pamperin and Tibbitts said even if all 7,000 people on the
new list apply for and obtain benefits, that's still a drop in the
bucket compared with the 825,000 disability determinations it
handles.The agency is expected to start notifying the first 1,000
veterans on the list by July, according to the committee."It's just
incumbent upon the department to find out and put this thing behind
us," Strickland said. "It is going to take resources and effort, but
it's something that needs to be done."The Veterans Administration
help line is (800) 749-8387.Lisa Friedman can be reached at (202)

Mahima Elanza is located in the fastest developing part of the city, Patrakar Colony, with just under 8 kms from city center. Situated on 60m wide major sector road with direct connectivity to the Ajmer highway, the project is a high end luxurious group housing, has a potential to play a major role in redefining the architectural appeal of the vicinity.
The design hence is concerned both with creating a unique character to the built mass, yet blending in with the surrounding. A singular mass with varying height is extracted out creating 2 courts connected by a 4 storey cut in the building. The major emphasis was on an active community and producing a green relief in the urban living; achieved by podium planning, green public and private terraces, 40m high sky-walk with embedded activities and also a 3 storey dedicated club of 30,000 sqft. area and a half Olympic length pool, caters the luxurious 285, 2 & 3 BHK apartments ranging from 1500-2800 sqft.
The project with about 8lacs of gross built up on a land parcel of 4.6 acres hence still has almost 100% green area as the plot.
Each apartment is designed to have an inside-outside interaction, opening to the picturesque views outside and a green active community court inside. The towers to knit up in a singular mass was another challenge as it required a series of out to in and in to out planning and hence achieve a grid to optimize the heat and light intake of the apartments, punctures and undulating heights in the geometry made it possible to make the building further responsive to the arid climate of the region. Further detailing based on the intersection of shadow masking and site surrounding layers was done to finally come up with one of the first gold rated green building of the city.

Bills Offensive Coordinator in Hot Seat Following Brutal Loss to Vikings
Heavy on Bills
By Emily Bicks
Updated Nov 14, 2022 at 6:53pm
Getty Ken Dorsey of the Buffalo Bills watches practice on August 05, 2022 in Orchard Park, New York.
The Buffalo Bills' 33-30 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, November 13 was incredibly painful to watch. Not only did the Bills squander a 17-point lead in the fourth quarter before choking in overtime, but this upset marked the third straight game in which Buffalo collapsed in the second half.
The Bills enter Week 11 with a 6-3 record and sitting in third place in the AFC East, a steep dip for the team considered to be Super Bowl favorites. While Bills quarterback Josh Allen took full responsibility for his several costly mistakes against the Vikings, his miscues weren't unique to this one loss. He hasn't thrown a passing touchdown in the second half since Week 6 against the Chiefs.
However, it's impossible to discuss the MVP candidate's slump without talking about offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey's questionable playcalling. While fans have had it, calling for Dorsey to be fired on Twitter, NFL analysts believe Allen's reckless play can be fixed with better coaching and better use of the run game.
Josh Allen has thrown 3 TDs and 6 INTs in his last 3 games 😬 pic.twitter.com/q5fsxDbhRj
— DraftKings (@DraftKings) November 14, 2022
The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia wrote, "Dorsey has left a bit to be desired past the team's surge to begin the year… The Bills have devolved into an offense wholly reliant on Allen bailing them out time after time rather than the omnipotent offensive attack they've shown the potential to be in spurts.
"Over the last two losses, when the Bills were trying to put away their opponents in the second half, they have only called a rushing play to their running backs on 19.6% of their plays for a total of 32 yards. For a team designed to get out to huge leads that need to put away their opponents, passing the ball over 80 percent of the time in the second half is unsustainable."
The Ringer's Steven Ruiz noted, "The Bills rank 20th in red zone touchdown percentage after 10 weeks. Considering they led the league in that statistic in 2021, new offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey, who replaced Brian Daboll, is shouldering a lot of the blame."
Bills Coaching Staff 'Has No Faith' in the Run Game
Josh Allen is currently leading the NFL with 10 interceptions🤯 pic.twitter.com/Mv9NB4JJhv
— CBS Sports HQ (@CBSSportsHQ) November 13, 2022
Allen currently leads the league in interceptions (10), and The Buffalo News' reporter Jay Skurski believes that number would drop dramatically if Dorsey utilized the run game for short yardage.
"When the Bills really need to run the ball, they just can't," Skurski wrote. "The Bills had four of their 10 rushing attempts in the second half go for 2 or less yards… Worse yet might be the Bills' play-calling because they can't run the ball. On second-and-goal from the Vikings' 2-yard line early in the fourth quarter, the Bills called three consecutive passes. That's a clear indication the coaching staff has no faith in the Bills' ability to pick up short yardage on the ground."
"The Bills have just 12 points in the second half over the past three weeks. That does not speak well to any adjustments that offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey is making at halftime. Why trade for [Nyheim] Hines to give him two targets over his first two games? Why is the message about taking better care of the football not getting through? Given how much of a priority that is for head coach Sean McDermott, that's a troubling question."
Ken Dorsey called the Allen fumble "a perfect storm" of multiple issues between QB and center.
Smart thing to say. Doesn't blame either guy.
I had a superb view at it.
Just looks like Josh is trying to run before he has it. #Bills pic.twitter.com/vvxTWlL9zW
— Thad Brown (@thadbrown7) November 14, 2022
Of course, coaching can't be blamed for Allen fumbling the snap on his own 1-yard line or Bills safety Cam Lewis trying to intercept the ball instead of batting it down in Week 10, but the past 11 quarters of football have created a disturbing trend.
When Dorsey addressed the media on Monday, he was asked about not running at all on 2nd/3rd/4th & 2 before 1st INT," as tweeted by WROC TV's Thad Brown. "Said they hit some screens, so that was choice on 2nd down. 3rd/4th were decisions to pass. 'Something we're going to evaluate and make sure players are in the right position.'"
As for his plan of attack with Allen, "QB play is 100% being smart not conservative," Dorsey said, per Brown. "We're going to continue to stress that. Can't go into a game and be a shell. Have to continue to attack."
Colin Cowherd Says Allen Is Regressing Without Brian Daboll
This feels pretty spot on… pic.twitter.com/jVfyAKxEe2
— Dan Fetes (@danfetes) November 14, 2022
While Buscaglia noted the Bills are missing "the creative charm that was a staple" of former offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, NFL analyst Colin Cowherd directly linked Allen's regression to his absence, which was a topic of discussion since before the season started.
"I'm not insinuating Buffalo has bad coaches, but Brian Daboll is probably going to win Coach of the Year, Cowherd surmised, as he's turned the Giants from an unwatchable team with a weak quarterback to a shoo-in for the playoffs.
Brian Daboll's reg season record as an Offensive Coordinator:
With Josh Allen: 34-15
Any other teams: 18-46
Did Josh Allen make the coach or did the coach make Josh Allen? https://t.co/KYqNDfmt6V
— Brian Drake (@DrakeFantasy) June 21, 2022
"But nine games in Buffalo without Brian Daboll and Josh Allen is now reverting to the Josh Allen in college and Josh Allen the first year," Cowherd said. "Wild, too often Superman, throwing the ball away. Even great knockout artists need movement and a jab. Patrick Mahomes, every single year… he'll go off into the weeds mechanically and Andy Reid's gotta bring him in and sandpaper him, refine him and get him back on the fairway. That's okay. It happens."
While Cowherd notes "this is not a shot on Ken Dorsey, but maybe Brian Daboll is just so good, just so excellent, that when he leaves, even with Allen's talent, you know it." Cowherd also noted the Bills' lack of a run game, which has been an issue now for four years. Without Allen's yards, Buffalo ranks 30th in the league in rushing yards.

2024 Mitsubishi Outlander Changes: PHEV, Sport Models
admin August 30, 2022 Mitsubishi Leave a comment 423 Views
It wasn't the end of the world when Mitsubishi turned the Eclipse into a crossover. Fans were also surprised seeing the the Evolution badge finds its way on an SUV rather than a sedan. We could also hear rumors about the high-performance tuning of the Nissan Rouge. The job was offered to the Ralliart in-house tuner. Some fans already imagined a more powerful take on the latest-generation 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander. The same sources from the Land of the Rising Sun claim it'll use the plug-in hybrid setup only. We could just do without the hood scoop. But other than that, it doesn't look that bad as long as you've gotten used to the strange headlight layout.
Riding near to the ground and containing dual exhaust tips, Mitsu's fourth-generation SUV is rather attractive in the supposed Evolution attire. It was apparently scheduled to break cover at the Toyota Motor Show. But, the event was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. It's unclear at this point when the debut is planned to take place. It is still uncertain whether it will happen at all because we still have doubts it's truly coming.
2024 Mitsubishi Outlander Facelift and Specifications Update
While the Ralliart moniker is officially coming back per Mitsubishi's financial report for the previous year, the company didn't go into any facts about how it will apply the revived branding. It also doesn't help that when the new Outlander PHEV was revealed a couple of weeks ago, the Japanese brand was shy on technical specifications.
Horsepower and torque numbers for the PHEV model are still unknown. But, we do know the front and rear electric motors add "around 40 percent" more ponies than before. The specs of the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander internal combustion engine are not available. Although, it could be identical to the 2.4-liter introduced with the retiring model. That one had outputs of 221 hp (165 kilowatts). Not a bad start, especially knowing that more potent electric motors are coming for the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.
Unnecessary to say, a potential Outlander Evolution would have to awaken the power. Plus, we expect to get extra hardware changes to match the more aggressive styling. According to rumors, this hybrid will have a premiere in June 2022 in Japan.
2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Release Date
As the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric vehicle) launched in 2017 as a 2018 model, the vehicle has strengthened its credentials as the record-breaking seller PHEV sport-utility vehicle in the world. In the U.S., the vehicle rapidly found sales success across Minnesota's capital city, Saint Paul, with the state growing to become the top-selling Outlander PHEV market in the country.
To underscore the vehicle's success locally, the company will provide further details about the all-new 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV at the 2022 Twin Cities Auto Show, running May 14-22. Local dealerships will show it off late in 2023.
The all-new PHEV model of Mitsubishi's flagship SUV gets together the company's knowledge in electrification and Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC).. The 2024 Outlander PHEV bonds the comfortable journey, spacious and class-above interior space with seating for seven people in three rows, widespread functionality and industry-leading guarantee of the gasoline-fueled SUV, but enhances smooth yet powerful acceleration and the environmentally aware efficiency unique to an electric vehicle.
The upcoming Outlander PHEV is fitted out with a new generation of Mitsubishi Motors' twin-motor 4WD PHEV system. The front and rear motors provide more power related to the previous model, which allows for the capability to operate more frequently in electric mode.

CBM Australia calls to leave no woman behind
by Sean Peters
Media Release, Stories
CBM Australia tomorrow releases a new report calling for the development sector to bridge the gap between gender and disability to ensure we leave no one behind and meet the 2030 Agenda.
The report Leave No One Behind: Gender equality, disability inclusion, and leadership for sustainable development highlights the discrimination that exists at the intersection of gender, disability and poverty and how this affects women and girls with disabilities in accessing employment, education, and health care.
Jane Edge, Chief Executive of CBM Australia, said, "Our report shows that women and girls with disabilities are still falling behind. In developing countries, the research tells us that 58.6% of men with disabilities access employment opportunities compared with only 20.1% of women with disabilities.
"Women and girls with disabilities are two to three times more likely to experience physical or sexual violence than women without disabilities.
"Yet in 2014, only 1.5% per cent of specific funding for women's and girls' rights focused on women and girls with disabilities. And within disability rights funding, only 9.5% per cent focused on women and girls with disabilities.
"While it is encouraging to see efforts made to bring together the gender equality and disability rights movements at a global level, these statistics show there is much to be done at the grassroots.
"At its heart, our report has one clear message: that in seeking to leave no woman behind, we should be led by women and girls with disabilities themselves."
CBM is proud to partner with Nguyen Thi Lan Anh, a determined Vietnamese advocate, leader of a local non-government organisation representing people with disabilities, and director of a CBM partner project which also receives support from the Australian Government, through the Australian NGO Cooperation Program (ANCP).
Ms Nguyen's organisation, Action to the Community Development Centre (ACDC), works to empower communities of people with disabilities, especially women and youth and those living in poverty. CBM is delighted to have Ms Nguyen join us at our event to launch the report, bringing her expertise and lived experiences.
"We must end gender and disability existing as separate conversations. As a global community we are obliged to take the necessary and inclusive steps to address gender and disability together, in order to meet the Sustainable Development Goals and achieve the 2030 Agenda," says Ms Nguyen.
The entire report, including the recommendations, can be downloaded here.

Scandit raises $150m in Series D; Reaches Unicorn valuation
Scandit, the global leader in smart data capture in which Forestay first invested in 2020, has today announced the close of a $150m Series D round. The new funding values the company in excess of $1bn.

Additionally, the funding will accelerate Scandit's R&D to advance enterprises' core business processes with an increased emphasis on AI/ML capabilities and autonomous data capture methods.
Forestay's Managing Partner, Frederic Wohlwend, said: "The extent and the pace of Scandit's growth, especially in the last two years, demonstrates the excellence of its technology, the merits of its strategy and, most importantly, the extraordinary capabilities of its team. It also explains why we found it so easy a decision to reinvest, and we are delighted to be an ongoing part of the company's journey, as well as another Swiss tech company's success story."
Samuel Mueller, CEO at Scandit, said, "By following our original vision of using the camera on smart devices to interact with physical items,we are transforming the daily lives of customers, employees and businesses to enable enhanced, personalized experiences and achieve their digital transformation ambitions. The new funding will allow us to help more businesses globally and to better empower an evolving mobile workforce, meet new customer expectations and deliver increasingly automated operations."

On the occasion of the UAE's 47th National Day, the government has declared two days off on Sunday, December 2, and Monday, December 3. Workers will return to duty on Tuesday, December 4. That means we're all getting a FOUR-DAY WEEKEND!
When is the next public holiday after National Day?
New Year's Day falls on Tuesday, January 1 2019 – it will be a public holiday for all residents.
Now would be a good time to book quick getaways less than 4 hours from Dubai… or a UAE staycation with deals from AED 175 Per Night!

Детский музыкальный театр Юного Актера (ДМТЮА) — российский государственный театр, основанный в 1988 году заслуженным артистом России Александром Фёдоровым.

Театр находится в Москве, на улице Малая Дмитровка, 8, стр. 4. В 2021 году планируется переезд в новое здание на улице Макаренко.

В театре выступают дети от 9 до 16 лет, и репертуар рассчитан в основном на юного зрителя. В репертуаре театра — русская и мировая музыкальная классика. Девиз театра на протяжении 30 лет его существования — «Дети-актёры — детям-зрителям».

Визитной карточкой театра является мюзикл Лайонела Барта «Приключения Оливера Твиста», впервые поставленный Александром Фёдоровым в 1991 г. В первом составе роль Феджина играл сам Александр Фёдоров.

С 1996 года при поддержке мэра Москвы Юрия Лужкова театр является государственным учреждением культуры. В театре выпускаются множество спектаклей и концертных программ. В 2002 году в Якутии был открыт филиал театра. С гастролями ДМТЮА участвовал в таких международных фестивалях, как «Славянский базар», «Expo 2000» (Германия), «Ривер Фест» (США), фестиваль университета г. Нанси (Франция), дважды — во Всемирном фестивале детских театров в Лингене (Германия) и в Гаване (Куба). Сам театр неоднократно принимал у себя детские театральные коллективы из США, Швейцарии, Великобритании, Южной Кореи.

В 2004 году театр инициировал создание и стал одним из учредителей Фестиваля детских театров «Пролог», который возглавил Александр Фёдоров. В 2003 году театр принял в труппу детей из мюзикла «Норд-Ост», с которыми поставил спектакль «Сон о дожде». Репертуар театра постоянно обновляется, однако некоторые спектакли, востребованные публикой, идут на сцене ДМТЮА многие годы: «В детской», «Московская история-1205», «Сон о дожде», «Приключения Оливера Твиста», «Приключения Тома Сойера».

Труппа театра принимала участие в мюзиклах «Зубастая няня» (проект Лины Арифуллиной) «Zorro», «Звуки музыки» и «Золушка» (проекты компании «Stage Entertainment»).

В 2015 году состоялась премьера мюзикла «Пеппи Длинныйчулок», по одноимённому советскому фильму 1984 года, на музыку Владимира Дашкевича.

29 и 30 декабря 2017 года на сцене театра состоялась премьера музыкальной комедии-вестерна «Вождь краснокожих» (изначальное название постановки — «Похищение Джонни Д.»), по одноимённому юмористическому рассказу О. Генри.

В 2018 году театр выпустил сразу две премьеры — музыкальный спектакль «Фантазии на тему Дунаевского» на основе песен Исаака Дунаевского, с которым начал активно гастролировать по городам Европы, и оперу «Баранкин, будь человеком!» по мотивам одноимённой сказочной повести Валерия Медведева.

11 ноября 2020 года театр отметил свое 30-летие на Новой сцене Большого театра.

EXTREME NOISE TERROR
Among the kings of the late '80s UK hardcore scene, EXTREME NOISE TERROR, indisputably deserve their name to be written in big black capitol letters. After speeding up, together with Napalm Death, Doom, Hellbastard and the likes, what Discharge created back in the early Eighties and inspiring a whole generation of crust bands, EXTREME NOISE TERROR are back in 2015 with a new full length recorded last year. It's hard to believe this new masterpiece doesn't come from the same 1991 sessions as this is totally Phonophobia-core. This new self titled record sounds exactly as the old E.N.T. tunes we all fell in love with, so what you have to expect is the usual overdose of throat-cutting double vocals, thrashy heavy rotten sounding guitar riffs, helicopter-ish bass and turbo aggressive fast beats. For those who still don't believe it, I'm reporting what Dean Jones wrote us introducing the record: "The new album is back to total old school ENT (Earslaughter, Holocaust, Phonophobia) No Metal, No Blasts. Total pure ripping, ultra fast H/C Punk the way it originally was". And this is what their new singer Ben wants to state about his feelings towards the record: "I was a big fan of ENT as a teen, long before I joined, specifically of A Holocaust In Your Head and Phonophobia. If I was going to compare this new album to anything the band's done before I'd say it sits nicely with those two. Catchy as fuck aggressive ultra hardcore punk riffs, fast frantic drumming and mental vocals; I don't think Dean's ever sounded as insane as he does on this one! It's raw as fuck too, no click tracks or fixing-in-the-mix type shit, instead the drums, bass and guitars were done live with the leads added after and me and Dean sharing a mic going through a 76 year old analogue valve amp. We're all hugely proud of this album, its a proper call to arms and a brutal statement that the band's music and message is every bit as relevant today as when it was formed 30 years ago". This record is totally in memory of their beloved singer Phil Vane who sadly passed away in 2011. Rest In Peace Phil and long live EXTREME NOISE TERROR!

'Animaniacs' revival ordered at Hulu, complete library (plus 'Pinky,' 'Tiny Toon Adventures') now available
By Andrew Sims | 4:21 pm EST, January 4, 2018
It's the Annnnnimaaaaaaniacs… coming back to life!
Hulu has secured two seasons of The Animaniacs, and will begin airing them in 2020. The streamer is billing the show as their first Hulu Original for families.
Can't wait 'til then to watch Yakko, Wakko, and Dot? The complete Animaniacs library, plus Pinky and the Brain, Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain, and Tiny Toon Adventures, are available on Hulu now.
"I am so pleased and proud that Animaniacs will have a home at Hulu," executive producer Steven Spielberg said in a statement (the show is under his Amblin Television banner). "Together with Warner Bros., we look to bring new audiences and longtime fans into this wild world of Yakko, Wakko and Dot. I am also excited that the full library of Animaniacs and Tiny Toon Adventures episodes are included in the deal."
"We cannot wait to work with Steven Spielberg and the entire Amblin and Warner Bros. teams to bring more sketches, catchphrases, songs and laughs from the Animaniacs to kids and adults everywhere," said Craig Erwich, SVP of Content, Hulu.
"Now one of the most beloved, inventive and funny animated franchises in history, Animaniacs and its cast of witty characters can live on, on Hulu. This marks yet another big move for us as we continue our efforts to be the #1 streaming destination for premium animated content."
Will you be catching up with Yakko, Wakko and Dot on Hulu?

Shalom! Welcome to the Jewish Outreach Homepage! I decided to make this website to inform people of this rural college community (Morris) in west central Minnesota. We don't have any Jewish synagouges (I've been to Messianic Synagogues in the Twin Cities-see Judaism); however, we do have a small minority population of Jewish people.
How does the small nation of Israel (about the size of Delaware according to some sources) get so much attention in the world news media?
Q: Did you know where the name "Israel" came from?
My first recollection of learning about the Jewish people was through the movie "Ten Commandments", starring Charleston Heston. Known as Hebrews before being name "Israelites" or "Jews", they were slaves in the land of Egypt before being delivered to the "Promise Land". I loved and still love watching this movie, especially during the Easter Holiday season. After coming to a personal relationship with God-Jehovah, I've came to a more fuller knowledge and understanding of God's "chosen people".
Back in High School, I remember going through the emotional inspiring book "Diary of Anne Frank". This book touch me and many of my classmates when we were required to read this. I didn't really have much of a understanding why Jews were treated the way they were. After my increase in knowledge of Scripture, I've become more sensitive and open to understanding the "chosen people".
Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace.
"...We're all pretty familiar with the story - a German businessman enlists Jews to work in his factory. At first, I believe, as an opportunist, for the Jews are cheap, readily available labour. He does, however, become gradually aware that his factory means the difference between life and death.
And so his 'list' is born. A list of Jews that he requires to 'work' for him. It is, in reality, a list of life and Schindler knows it.
Liam Neeson fills Schindler's boots well. You soon forget he is Neeson at all. Ben Kingsley is, ofcourse, his ever-reliable brilliant self. And Ralph Fiennes easily creates one of the screens most hateful villians (sadly, a villian who actually existed).
There are some tough scenes (most notably, the liquidation of the ghetto, Goeth's (Fiennes) brutality in the camp) and it's all filmed in beautiful black & white - except for the highlighted girl in the red dress, which has a brilliant symbolic meaning later in the film. "

"As long ago as Biblical times, cultural and linguistic differences between Jewish communities even within the area of Judea are observed both within the Bible itself as well as from archeological remains. The full extent of these differences, however, is unknown. Following the defeat of the kingdoms of Israel and Judah, the Jewish people were dispersed throughout the Middle East, especially in Egypt, Yemen and Mesopotamia. By the height of the Roman Empire, Jewish communities could be found in nearly every notable settlement throughout the Empire, as well as scattered communities found in settlements beyond the Empire's borders in northern Europe and in Africa. In the east, Jewish communities could be found throughout Parthia and in empires even further east including India and China. Jews could also be found in eastern Europe and southwestern Asia."

Public Release: 27-Jul-2015
New treatment options for a fatal leukemia
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) frequently develops between the age of two and three. This leukemia has various forms, which differ through certain changes in the genetic material of the leukemia cells. A team of scientists involved in a joint international project headed by Jean-Pierre Bourquin, a pediatric oncologist from the University Children's Hospital Zurich, and Martin Stanulla, a professor at Hannover Medical School, has now succeeded in decoding the genome and transcriptome of an as yet incurable sub-type of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. These results were achieved in collaboration with leading experts in the field, Marie Laure Yaspo, a research group leader at the Max Plank Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin, Arndt Borkhardt, a professor at the University of Düsseldorf, Jan Korbel a professor at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg and André Franke from the University of Kiel.
The two genes TCF3 and HLF are already known to be fused together aberrantly in this subtype of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. This change in the genetic code makes the leukemia resistant to all current treatments. The scientists have now discovered that other DNA areas are also changed in addition to the two aberrantly fused genes and that the activity of key genes was modified thus determining a novel program associated to the leukemic cells.
A wolf in sheep's clothing
Modifications of genes that control the development and promote the growth of highly specific blood defense cells, so-called B-lymphocytes, were evident in the leukemia cells studied. The interplay between the pathogenic fusion of TCF3 with HLF and newly identified alterations triggers a previously undetected reprogramming of the leukemia cells to a very early, stem-cell-like developmental stage, which is not externally visible on the cells. "This form of leukemia might be described as a kind of 'wolf in sheep's clothing'," stresses Martin Stanulla. "These key findings could be made, in particular, by reading out the messenger molecules synthesized in the tumor cells, a powerful technique allowing not only a deeper understanding of the genetic program specifying the behavior of tumor cells, but also of therapeutic entry points" adds Marie-Laure Yaspo.
The group of Jean-Pierre Bourquin developed a humanized mouse model at the University Children's Hospital in Zurich that enables researchers to explore leukemias in conditions that are very similar to the situations encountered in humans. "In other words, we created a model to accelerate the discovery of more personalized treatment options," explains Jean-Pierre Bourquin. The human leukemia cells growing in the mouse retain the crucial genetic changes and, according to Bourquin, therefore constitute a realistic possibility to examine new courses of therapy in a patient-oriented manner.
Promising drug tests
On this basis, the Zurich researchers tested hundreds of novel drugs. Some of them, which are still undergoing further clinical development, displayed a very positive effect. One such drug is Venetoclax, which specifically targets the protein BCL2 relevant for the programmed cell death and already worked for other cancer strains.
In the mouse model, Venetoclax induced remissions of the disease, followed by prolonged phases without any signs of the disease if administered together with conventional chemotherapy for leukemia. "Further studies are now needed to test how the results of our study might be used for therapeutic possibilities," says Bourquin. "Our work just goes to show the great potential of coordinated, interdisciplinary research approaches involving cutting-edge technological possibilities for cancer research," concludes Stanulla.
The development of new courses of therapy in the humanized leukemia model was supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation and the University of Zurich's clinical research focus program "Human Hemato-Lymphatic Diseases". The genetic studies were funded by the German Federal Office for Radiation Protection via the environmental research program of the German Federal Environment Ministry and by the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics.

Pregnant dog saves people from burning hospice, but suffers severe burns
Home » Pregnant dog saves people from burning hospice, but suffers severe burns
Dogs really are incredible animals. They are brave and loyal, always stepping up to save and protect humans… even if it means putting themselves in harm's way.
That was the case for one brave dog, who helped saved multiple people from a fire, even if it nearly cost her own life.
A hospice in St. Petersburg, Russia caught fire this week. As the blaze quickly spread through the building, a dog named Matilda sounded the alarm.
She ran into the building, alerting everyone of the fire and helping to save multiple people.
But she did so at the expense of her own safety: Matilda passed out from carbon monoxide inhalation inside the burning building, according to the Daily Star. While she was recovered from the hospice, she suffered severe burns.
Making things even more complicated was the fact that Matilda was pregnant with puppies.
Now Matilda is recovering at a shelter. Her carers are working hard to heal her severe burns while also caring for her pups.
"Matilda's face, neck and abdomen were severely burned," the shelter said in a statement, according to the Daily Star.
"She was checked over by a fertility specialist who looked at her for a very long time and carefully studied the puppies."
Due to her body burns, Matilda will be unable to feed her puppies, but according to the shelter they are otherwise unaffected by the fire.
"They are all alive and developing well," the shelter said. "Now it is impossible to understand the number of babies she is carrying, since she is a big dog."
Matilda still has a difficult road ahead, and her owners are reportedly worried about how they will care for her with her injuries.
But as she's proven, Matilda is one brave dog, and she's taking her recovery in stride.
"[Matilda] cries and trembles in pain, but heroically endures everything," local media reported.
We hope this heroic dog heals up soon, and that she — and her puppies — all have the great lives they deserve.
It's another example of how brave dogs can be. Share this remarkable story!

When I was newly married in 1973, my American sister-in-law gave me a Betty Crocker cook book, in which I found a recipe for a Coffee Cake. I was most perplexed though because it contained no coffee, unlike British recipes. It took me years to find out that it was simply eaten with a cup of coffee!


DesktopLinux recently contacted ELX Linux to learn about the company's desktop strategy, market conditions and business activities. PCTechTalk features an interview with Knoppix's main developer.
I think I found the post you're referring to at http://community.lunar-linux.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=41&highligh….
To set the record straight: that's complete crap. Knoppix's hardware-detection mechanism is Kudzu-based, and in no way proprietary. The sources for all the tweaked Knoppix components are freely available at http://developer.linuxtag.net/knoppix/sources/; everything else has come straight from the Debian tree, and can be fetched from http://packages.debian.org.
Also note that the poster reveals his utter ignorance when he says that the hardware detection code is "explicitly copyrighted even!" Well, duh. Sure, the respective authors hold the copyright on what they wrote, but they've released it under an Open Source license. That's the way it works.
The part I found most interesting is Knopper's mention of the efforts underway to integrate Knoppix more closely with the Debian tree. This would allow ultimate flexibility, with each person being able to automatically generate their custom Knoppix ISO on the fly, with whatever packages they wish. This'll mean that Knoppix and derivatives will no longer need to spend time deciding what to cram onto the CD/DVD, and can focus on the infrastructure instead. Sounds like a winner from everyone's POV :-).
I did look at the ELX linux..looks neat [other than setting up call centers in India..Uugh! if you live in or around India, yeah, good for you.] I find it interesting that they are attacking the desktop linux head on and being successful. The key thing to their success has got to be the HIPPA ready servers! Linux allows them to lock down a server and integrate all the necessary protections required by the new laws for patient privacy. A lot of small doctor's offices, and big insurace firms are having to replace systems right and left [in many cases MS is out due to their own licensing foibles! These are people that read the EULA and DON'T agree.] to comply with the rules.
Along the way they get to sell Linux desktops to go along with the servers. Notice that they pride themselves on the attention to detail, unlike other distros, SuSe/RedHat, that leave stupid bugs that show lack of QA rather than programming issues. Like any success, they took time to know what their market needed and then delivered it…very good!

The Wire (Season 3)
September 19, 2004 in Recommended
Last night the third season of the best show on television, HBO's The Wire, began. The Wire is a show about Baltimore's drug dealers, dock workers, cops and corrupt city employees. It's a portrait of urban America in decay and the undiscriminating hopelessness that infects everyone, from drug-dealing foot soldiers to the show's semi-protagonist, Jimmy McNulty, a Don Quixote with a badge.
The show's title refers to the surveillance equipment used by the Baltimore PD to track the flow of drugs throughout the city's projects (the Towers, as they are referred to in the series). The city, ravaged by crime and the steady exodus of its residents to the suburbs, can hardly afford the equipment, so crime fighting is done on the cheap, and rarely do the results satisfy the lowly detectives and street cops, who instead take solace in beating 14-year-olds senseless. It's the only way they can get enough satisfaction to return to their shift the next day.
As the most important police (pronounced PO-leece) work is done via eavesdropping, patience is rewarded above all else. The same is true of The Wire's narrative. This is easily HBO's most patient show (kudos to them for being patient with the first season's lackluster ratings), as storylines unfold in a trickle through a Rashomon-like litany of sources. The drug dealers, led by the Solomon-smart Stringer Bell, and cops are portrayed as equals in intelligence and righteousness; their relationship is strangely symbiotic: without the cops, slinging bags would be just another job; without the drugs, policing would be far less rewarding for the sort of cop who wants to unravel spider webs while erecting one of his or her own.
Many viewers probably caught their first glimpse of The Wire last night, and I'm certain that many flipped away before its end wondering just what the hell was going on, and how all of these black people ended up on their television sets. Should they return — based on the national near-ritual of church Sunday morning, HBO Sunday night — they will be duly rewarded. Lessons on municipal government, public housing and the war on drugs seem more PBS' speed, but much like The Sopranos, The Wire directs a flashlight toward a subculture with laws, mores and ethics all its own.
The new season doesn't look to be all that different from the previous two — Sunday's excellent episode added more strings to Baltimore's holy police-politician-drug dealer triumvirate — but as the Barksdale drug soldier Bodie said last night, "Don't matter how many times you get burnt, you just keep doin' the same."

Rough Guide to DFA
DFA is a NYC-based production outfit/record label lead by James Murphy and Tim Goldsworthy. The duo's first production was, I believe the Turing Machine album, A New Machine for Living, in 2000. The label's most popular act, by far, is the Rapture, a New York-based quartet who play a variety of musics but are best known for their post-punk anthem "House of Jealous Lovers." Black Dice are a Brooklyn group who conjure swaths of noise and melody; LCD Soundsystem are fronted by Murphy, and have released two iconic 12-inch singles, "Losing My Edge," a sarcastic lament by a not-quite-so hipster, and "Yeah," an audio tour of rock and dance music's histories. The production side of DFA has worked with two very high profile artists: N.E.R.D., the Neptunes side project, and Britney Spears. The Britney track was rejected by her management even though it sounds like the Neptunes producing "Love to Love You Baby." And no, I don't have an MP3 of it, so don't ask.

Q: Mysql 5.5 Innodb slow insert query issue I have a stored procedure which inserts around 3K rows in a temporary table. This SP used to take 3 seconds on Mysql 5.1 (windows desktop), the same SP was taking around 2 mins on Mysql 5.5.
I tried lot of things like optimizing innodb by changing innodb_buffer_pool_size etc but nothing worked and then I read something on stackoverflow which solved my problem.
START TRANSACTION;
CALL sp();
COMMIT;

The above code solved the issue and now I am back to 3 secs execution time. Can someone please tell me what exactly is happening here. Why do I have to add start transaction in 5.5 for fast execution? Why didnt I need this in 5.1

A: I would guess it's due to autocommit being disabled by running
START TRANSACTION;

You can verify it by disabling autocommit manually and then run your proc.
SET autocommit=0;

A: I added the following line in my mysql.ini file
innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=0

It seems to have solved the issue, the procedure runs fast now. Ideally innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit should be 1 for ACID compliance.

A: When you insert a row into an InnoDB table, MySQL builds the primary_key and updates indexes for that row. This is done for each row and can slow down your inserts considerably. By wrapping them up in a transaction, you're essentially forcing it to first insert all the rows, and then rebuild keys and indexes in one shot. Hence the performance gain.

World premiere of Pa's Hut: Liberian Legacy
By: Wynfred Russell
In 1902, playwright Cori Thomas' grandparents emigrated from the United States to Liberia. There they built and founded a school – The Lott Carey Mission, where my mother and countless other Liberians have been educated and is in operation to this day. Cori's father, David M. Thomas, Sr., joined the Liberian foreign-service. He spent over 30 years serving as a Liberian diplomat around the world.
On April 12, 1980, a violent military coup brought the country to a screeching halt. Many people were executed, including President William R. Tolbert and 13 members of his cabinet. Cori's uncle was arrested and killed while in prison.
Ambassador Thomas, who was in the U.S. at the time, was ordered to return to stand trial. He refused and instead applied for political asylum in the U.S. He was named an enemy of Liberia and a traitor. He lost all his life savings which were held in Liberian banks. He was also forced to turn over the deeds to land he had bought. Life as he and his family knew it, and all privileges, vanished in an instant.
People sometime say that when something bad happens, you can't go home again, but sometimes you must. So, 20 years later in 2000, Thomas, Sr., now 83, insisted on visiting Liberia, which was now in the midst of a devastating civil war. His daughter Cori accompanied him, where they found themselves detained and imprisoned by a machine-gun-toting14-year old 'commander' of the Armed Forces of Liberia.
This play was inspired by that trip:
Pillsbury House Theatre presents the World Premiere of PA'S HAT: LIBERIAN LEGACY by Cori Thomas and directed by Marion McClinton. The cast features Ansa Akyea, Namir Smallwood, Regina Marie Williams, and Bruce A. Young.
Family legacy, national pride and the violent civil unrest of war-torn Liberia set the backdrop for this moving new play. Performances run Wednesdays through Sundays, May 28, 2010 through June 27, 2010. Tickets are $10 – $20. Performances take place on the Pillsbury House Theatre Main-stage at 3501 Chicago Avenue South in Minneapolis.
Wednesdays @ the House – Pay What You Can Thursdays & Sundays – $15 Adults / $10 Seniors & Students
Fridays & Saturdays – $20 Adults / $15 Seniors & Students
Tickets are available by calling 612-825-0459 or online at www.pillsburyhousetheatre.org. Pillsbury House Theatre does not charge additional fees for online ordering.

One Response to World premiere of Pa's Hut: Liberian Legacy
A wonderful play! I highly recommend it. And for $15 a head, in an intimate theater, directed by multi award winning Marion McClinton, starring some of the Twin Cities' best actors…you can't go wrong. Just do it. Besides, you'll learn very interesting things about Liberia. And for it to be a true story, remarkable.

Phryg'ia
(Φρυγία, perhaps from φρύγω, hence parched), an inland province of Asia Minor, bounded on the north by Bithynia and Galatia. on the east by Cappadocia and Lycaonia, on the south by Lycia, Pisidia, and Isauria, and on the west by Caria, Lydia, and Mysia. Perhaps there is no geographical term in the New Testament which is less capable of an exact definition. Many maps convey the impression that it was coordinate with such terms as Bithynia, Cilicia, or Galatia. But in fact there was no Roman province of Phrygia till considerably after the first establishment of Christianity in the peninsula of Asia Minor. The word was rather ethnological than political, and denoted, in a vague manner, the western part of the central region of that peninsula. Accordingly, in two of the three places where it is used, it is mentioned in a manner not intended to be precise (διελθότες τὴν Φρυγίαν καὶ τὴν Φαλατικὴν χώραν, Ac 16:6; διερχόμενος καθεξῆς τὴν Γαλατικὴν χώραν καὶ Φρυγίαν, Ac 18:23), the former having reference to the second missionary journey of St. Paul, the latter to the third. Nor is the remaining passage (Ac 2:10) inconsistent with this view, the enumeration of those foreign Jews who came to Jerusalem at Pentecost (though it does follow, in some degree, a geographical order) having no referencs to political boundaries. By Phrygia we must understand an extensive district, which contributed portions to several Roman provinces, and varying portions at different times. In early times Phrygia seems to have comprehended the greater part of the peninsula of Asia Minor. It was subsequently divided into Phrygia Major on the south, and Phrygia Minor or Epictetus (acquired) on the northwest. The Romans divided the province into three districts: Phrygia Salutaris on the east, Phrygia Pacatiana on the west, and Phrygia Katakekaumene (the burnt) in the middle. The country, as defined by the specified limits, is for the most part level, and very abundant in corn, fruit, and wine. It had a peculiar and celebrated breed of cattle, and the fine raven-black wool of the sheep around Laodicca on the Lycus was in high repute. The Maeander and the Hermus were its chief rivers. The Phrygians were a very ancient people, and are supposed to have formed, along with the Pelasgi, the aborigines of Asia Minor. Jews from Phrygia were present in Jerusalem at the Feast of Pentecost (Ac 2:10). All over this district the Jews were probably numerous. They were first introduced there by Antiochus the Great (Josephus, Ant. 12:3, 4); and we have abundant proof of their presence there from Ac 13:14; Ac 14:1,19, as well as from Ac 2:10.
The cities of Laodicea, Hierapolis, and Colosse, mentioned in the New Testament, belonged to Phrygia, and Antioch in Pisidia was also within its limits (see the names). See Rosenmuller, Bibl. Geog. 3:43-45; Leake, Geog. of Asia Minor; Smith, Dict. of Claus. Geog. s.v. SEE ASIA MINOR.
