Lindsey Vonn Crashes In Penultimate Race As Mikaela Shiffrin Wins World Title
(CNN) – It was supposed to be a happy farewell, but Lindsey Vonn crashed in her opening race at skiing's World Championships as compatriot Mikaela Shiffrin triumphed in Sweden. The 34-year-old Vonn flew off a jump and careered into netting in Tuesday's super-G, the penultimate race of her glittering career after announcing her retirement last week because of the toll the sport has taken on her "broken" body.

After race officials and medics rushed to her aid, Vonn eventually got back up and skied tentatively down the course in Are.

The American's final race is scheduled to be Sunday's downhill.
'Mentally tougher'
Shiffrin, who started immediately before Vonn in bib number 15, took the lead with a host of racers still to come, including Olympic super-G champion Ester Ledecka.
But the 23-year-old held on to beat Italy's Olympic downhill champion Sofia Goggia by 0.02 seconds with Swiss Corinne Suter 0.05 secs back.
Slalom specialist Shiffrin is bidding for a fourth straight slalom world title in Are. The Olympic giant slalom champion is not planning to race in the downhill but will contest the slalom, giant slalom and possibly combined event in Are.
Shiffrin has been the standout women's skier this season with 13 wins on the World Cup circuit to climb to 56 victories overall, making her the fifth most successful ski racer of all time.
"She's mentally tougher than anyone else, she trains more … she does everything well and you're seeing the results," American ski great Bode Miller told Eurosport, referring to runaway World Cup standings leader Shiffrin.
Ledecka, who also won snowboarding gold in Pyeongchang, was more than two seconds off the pace after a disappointing run.
'My body is broken beyond repair'
Vonn has won 82 World Cup races, second on the all-time list behind Ingemar Stenmark (86), and is the most successful women's ski racer of all time.
She was a double world champion in 2009 and clinched Olympic downhill gold in 2010.
Despite a host of injuries in recent years, Vonn fought back to clinch downhill bronze in the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang.
Vonn said in October that this season would be her last but a knee injury in a training crash at Copper Mountain, Colorado in November put back her season debut until January. She struggled with knee pain in two races in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy and after much soul-searching she announced Friday she would retire after the World Championships.
"The past two weeks have been some of the most emotionally challenging days of my life," Vonn wrote on Facebook.
"I am struggling with the reality of what my body is telling me versus what my mind and heart believe I'm capable of. The unfortunate reality is my mind and body are not on the same page. After many sleepless nights, I have finally accepted that I cannot continue ski racing."
She added: "My body is broken beyond repair and it isn't letting me have the final season I dreamed of. My body is screaming at me to STOP and it's time for me to listen."

\section{Introduction}   \label{s1}

Let $G$ be a simple connected graph of $n$ vertices and $m$ edges with degree sequence
$d_{1} \geq d_{2} \geq \cdots \geq d_{n}.$ The {\it adjacency matrix} $A=(a_{ij})$ of $G$ is a binary square matrix of order $n$ with rows and columns indexed by the vertex set $VG$ of $G$ such that for any $i, j\in VG$, $a_{ij}=1$ if $i,j$ are adjacent in $G.$
The \emph{spectral radius} $\rho(G)$ of $G$ is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix,
which has been studied by many authors.

\medskip

The following theorem is well-known \cite[Chapter 2]{m:88}.
\begin{thm}   \label{thm1.1}
If $A$ is a nonnegative irreducible $n \times n$ matrix with largest eigenvalue $\rho(A)$ and row-sums
$r_{1}, r_{2},\ldots,r_{n},$ then
\begin{equation}
\rho(A) \leq \max_{1 \leq i \leq n}r_{i}   \nonumber
\end{equation}
with equality if and only if the row-sums of $A$ are all equal.
\end{thm}

\medskip

In 1985 \cite[Corollary~2.3]{bh:85}, Brauldi and Hoffman showed the following result.
\begin{thm}   \label{thm1.2}
If $m \leq k(k-1)/2,$ then
\begin{equation}
\rho(G) \leq k-1   \nonumber
\end{equation}
with equality if and only if $G$ is isomorphic to
the complete graph $K_{n}$ of order $n.$
\end{thm}

\medskip

In 1987 \cite{s:87}, Stanley improved Theorem~\ref{thm1.2} and showed the following result.
\begin{thm}   \label{thm1.3}
\begin{equation}
\rho(G) \leq \frac{-1+\sqrt{1+8m}}{2}   \nonumber
\end{equation}
with equality if and only if $G$ is isomorphic to
the complete graph $K_{n}$ of order $n.$
\end{thm}

\medskip

In 1998 \cite[Theorem~2]{h:98}, Yuan Hong improved  Theorem~\ref{thm1.3} and showed the following result.
\begin{thm}   \label{thm_genus}
\begin{equation}
\rho(G) \leq \sqrt{2m-n+1}   \nonumber
\end{equation}
with equality if and only if $G$ is isomorphic to the star $K_{1,n-1}$ or
to the complete graph $K_{n}.$
\end{thm}

\medskip

In 2001 \cite[Theorem~2.3]{hsf:01}, Hong et al. improved Theorem~\ref{thm_genus} and showed the following result.
\begin{thm}   \label{thm1.4}
\begin{equation}
\rho(G) \leq \frac{d_{n}-1+\sqrt{(d_{n}+1)^2 + 4(2m-n d_{n})}}{2}   \nonumber
\end{equation}
with equality if and only if $G$ is regular
or there exists $2 \leq t \leq n$ such that $d_{1}=d_{t-1}=n-1$ and $d_{t}=d_{n}.$
\end{thm}

\medskip

In 2004 \cite[Theorem~2.2]{sw:04}, Jinlong Shu and Yarong Wu improved Theorem~\ref{thm1.1}
in the case that $A$ is the adjacency matrix of $G$ by showing the following result.
\begin{thm}   \label{thm1.5}
For $1 \leq \ell \leq n,$
\begin{equation}
\rho(G) \leq \frac{d_{\ell}-1+\sqrt{(d_{\ell}+1)^{2}+4(\ell-1)(d_{1}-d_{\ell})}}{2}   \nonumber
\end{equation}
with equality if and only if $G$ is regular
or there exists $2 \leq t \leq \ell$ such that $d_{1}=d_{t-1}=n-1$ and $d_{t}=d_{n}.$
\end{thm}
Moreover, they also showed in \cite[Theorem~2.5]{sw:04} that if $p+q \geq d_{1}+1$
then Theorem~\ref{thm1.5} improves Theorem~\ref{thm1.4}
where $p$ is the number of vertices with the largest degree $d_{1}$
and $q$ is the number of vertices with the second largest degree.
The special case $\ell=2$ of Theorem~\ref{thm1.5} is reproved \cite{d:11}.

\medskip

In this research, we present a sharp upper bound of $\rho(G)$ in terms of the degree sequence of $G,$
which improves all the above theorems.

\medskip

\begin{thm}   \label{thm1.6}
For $1 \leq \ell \leq n,$
$$\rho(G) \leq \phi_{\ell}:= \frac{d_{\ell}-1+\sqrt{(d_{\ell}+1)^2+4\sum_{i=1}^{\ell-1}(d_{i} - d_{\ell})}}{2},$$
with equality if and only if $G$ is regular
or there exists $2 \leq t \leq \ell$ such that $d_{1}=d_{t-1}=n-1$ and $d_{t}=d_{n}.$
\end{thm}

This result improves Theorem~\ref{thm1.4} and Theorem~\ref{thm1.5}
since $\phi_{n}$ is exactly the upper bounds in Theorem~\ref{thm1.4} and  is at most the upper bound appearing in Theorem~\ref{thm1.5}.

\medskip

Note that the number $\phi_\ell$ defined in Theorem~\ref{thm1.6} is at least $d_\ell.$
The sequence $\phi_{1}, \phi_{2}, \cdots, \phi_n$ is not necessary to be non-increasing.
We show that this sequence is first non-increasing and then non-decreasing, and determine its lowest value in Section~\ref{s4}.

\section{Proof of Theorem~\ref{thm1.6}}   \label{s3}
\begin{proof}
Let the vertices be labeled by $1,2,\ldots,n$ with degrees $d_{1} \geq d_{2} \geq \cdots \geq d_{n},$ respectively.
For each $1 \leq i \leq \ell-1,$ let $x_{i} \geq 1$ be a variable to be determined later.
Let $U=diag(x_{1},x_{2},\ldots,x_{\ell-1},1,1,\ldots,1)$ be a diagonal matrix of size $n \times n$.
Then $U^{-1}=diag(x_1^{-1}, x_2^{-1},\ldots,x_{\ell-1}^{-1},1,1,\ldots,1).$
Let $B=U^{-1}AU.$
Note that $A$ and $B$ have the same eigenvalues.
Let $r_{1},r_{2},\ldots,r_{n}$ be the row-sums of $B.$
Then for $1 \leq i \leq \ell-1$ we have
\begin{eqnarray}
r_{i} &=& \sum_{k=1}^{\ell-1}\frac{x_{k}}{x_{i}}a_{ik} + \sum_{k=\ell}^{n}\frac{1}{x_{i}}a_{ik}   \nonumber
= \frac{1}{x_{i}}\sum_{k=1}^{n}a_{ik} + \frac{1}{x_{i}}\sum_{k=1}^{\ell-1}(x_{k}-1)a_{ik}\\
&\leq& \frac{1}{x_{i}}d_{i}+\frac{1}{x_{i}} \left( \sum_{k=1,k \neq i}^{\ell-1}x_{k}-(\ell-2) \right),   \label{eq3.1}
\end{eqnarray}
and for $\ell \leq j \leq n$ we have
\begin{eqnarray}
r_{j} &=& \sum_{k=1}^{\ell-1}x_{k}a_{jk} + \sum_{k=\ell}^{n}a_{ik}   \nonumber
=\sum_{k=1}^{n}a_{jk} + \sum_{k=1}^{\ell-1}(x_{k}-1)a_{jk}\\
&\leq& d_{\ell} + \left( \sum_{k=1}^{\ell-1}x_{k}-(\ell-1) \right).   \label{eq3.2}
\end{eqnarray}
For $1 \leq i \leq \ell-1$ let
\begin{equation}
x_{i}=1+\frac{d_{i}-d_{\ell}}{\phi_{\ell}+1} \geq 1,   \label{eq3.4}
\end{equation}
where $\phi_{\ell}$ is defined in Theorem~\ref{thm1.6}.
Then for $1 \leq i \leq \ell-1$ we have
\begin{equation}
r_{i} \leq \frac{1}{x_{i}}d_{i}+\frac{1}{x_{i}} \left( \sum_{k=1,k \neq i}^{\ell-1}x_{k}-(\ell-2) \right) = \phi_{\ell},
\nonumber
\end{equation}
and for $\ell \leq j \leq n$ we have
\begin{equation}
r_{j} \leq d_{\ell} + \left( \sum_{k=1}^{\ell-1}x_{k}-(\ell-1) \right) = \phi_{\ell}.  \nonumber
\end{equation}
Hence by Theorem~\ref{thm1.1},
\begin{equation}
\rho(G) = \rho(B) \leq \max_{1 \leq i \leq n}\{r_{i}\} \leq \phi_{\ell}.   \label{eq3.5}
\end{equation}
The first part of Theorem~\ref{thm1.6} follows.

\medskip

The sufficient condition of $\phi_{\ell}=\rho(G)$ follows from the fact that
\begin{equation}
\phi_{\ell} \leq \frac{d_{\ell}-1+\sqrt{(d_{\ell}+1)^{2}+4(\ell-1)(d_{1}-d_{\ell})}}{2}   \nonumber
\end{equation}
and applying the second part in Theorem~\ref{thm1.5}.

\medskip

To prove the necessary condition of $\phi_{\ell}=\rho(G)$, suppose $\phi_{\ell}=\rho(G).$
Then the equalities in~\eqref{eq3.1} and~\eqref{eq3.2} all holds.
If $d_{1}=d_{\ell},$ then $d_{1}=\phi_{1}=\phi_{\ell}=\rho(G),$ and $G$ is regular by the second part of Theorem~\ref{thm1.1}.
Suppose $2 \leq t \leq \ell$ such that $d_{t-1} > d_{t} = d_{\ell}.$
Then $x_{i} > 1$ for $1 \leq i \leq t-1$ by~\eqref{eq3.4}.
For each $1 \leq i \leq \ell-1,$ the equality in~\eqref{eq3.1} implies that $a_{ik}=1$ for $1 \leq k \leq t-1,$ $k \neq i.$
For each $\ell \leq j \leq n,$ the equality in~\eqref{eq3.2} implies that $a_{jk}=1$
for $1 \leq k \leq t-1$ and $d_{j}=d_{\ell}.$
Hence $n-1=d_{1}=d_{t-1} > d_{t}=d_{\ell}=d_{n}.$

\medskip

We complete the proof.
\end{proof}

\section{The sequence $\phi_{1},\phi_{2},\ldots,\phi_n$}   \label{s4}
The sequence $\phi_{1},\phi_{2},\ldots,\phi_{n}$ is not necessarily non-increasing. For example,
the path $P_{n}$ of $n$ vertices has $2=d_{1}=d_{n-2}>d_{n-1}=d_{n}=1,$
and it is immediate to check that
if $n \geq 6$ then $\phi_{1}=\phi_{2}=2 < \sqrt{n-1}=\phi_{n-1}=\phi_{n}.$
\medskip

Clearly that for all $1 \leq s < t \leq n,$ $d_{s}=d_{t}$ implies that $\phi_{s}=\phi_{t}.$
However, $\phi_{s}=\phi_{t}$ dose not imply $d_{s} = d_{t}.$
For example, in the graph with degree sequence $(4,3,3,2,1,1),$
one can check that $\phi_{4}=\phi_{5}=3$ but $d_{4} > d_{5}.$
\medskip

Recall that $d_{s}=d_{s+1}$ implies $\phi_{s}=\phi_{s+1}$ for $1 \leq s \leq n-1.$
The following proposition describes the shape of the sequence $\phi_1,$ $\phi_2$, $\ldots,$ $\phi_n.$

\begin{prop}   \label{prop4.1}
Suppose $d_{s}>d_{s+1}$ for $1 \leq s \leq n-1,$ and let $\succeq  \in \{ >, = \}.$
Then  $$\phi_{s} \succeq \phi_{s+1}~~ \hbox{iff~~} \sum_{i=1}^{s} d_{i} \succeq s(s-1).$$
\end{prop}
\begin{proof} Recall that
\begin{equation}
\phi_{s} = \frac{d_{s}-1+\sqrt{(d_{s}+1)^2+4\sum_{i=1}^{s-1}(d_{i} - d_{s})}}{2}.
\nonumber
\end{equation} Consider the following equivalent relations step by step.
\begin{align*}
~~~&\phi_{s} \succeq \phi_{s+1}  \\
\Leftrightarrow~~~&
d_{s} - d_{s+1}+ \sqrt{(d_{s}+1)^{2}+4\sum_{i=1}^{s-1}(d_{i}-d_{s})} \\
 &~~~~~~~~~~~~\succeq\sqrt{(d_{s+1}+1)^{2}+4\sum_{i=1}^{s}(d_{i}-d_{s+1})}  \\
\Leftrightarrow~~~&
\sqrt{(d_{s}+1)^{2}+4\sum_{i=1}^{s-1}(d_{i}-d_{s})} \succeq 2s - (d_{s}+1)
\label{eq4.2} \\
\Leftrightarrow~~~&
(d_{s}+1)^{2}+4\sum_{i=1}^{s}(d_{i}-d_{s}) \succeq 4 s^{2} - 4 s(d_{s}+1) + (d_{s}+1)^{2}\\
\Leftrightarrow~~~&
\sum_{i=1}^{s}d_{i} \succeq s(s-1),
\end{align*}
where the third relation is obtained from the second  by taking square on both sides, simplifying it, and deleting the common term $d_{s}-d_{s+1}.$
\end{proof}

\medskip

\begin{cor}  \label{cor4.2}
Let $3 \leq \ell \leq n$ be the smallest integer such that $\sum_{i=1}^{\ell}d_{i} < \ell(\ell-1).$
Then for $1 \leq j \leq n$ we have
$$\phi_{j} = \min\{\phi_k~|~1\leq k\leq n\}$$
if and only if $d_{j}=d_{\ell},$ or $d_{j}=d_{\ell-1}$ with $\sum_{i=1}^{\ell-1}d_{i} = (\ell-1)(\ell-2).$
\end{cor}
\begin{proof}
From Proposition~\ref{prop4.1},
$\sum_{i=1}^{\ell-1}d_{i} = (\ell-1)(\ell-2)$ implies $\phi_{\ell-1}=\phi_{\ell}.$
Also, clearly that $d_{j} = d_{\ell}$ implies $\phi_{j} = \phi_{\ell}.$
We show that $\phi_{\ell} = \min\{\phi_k~|~1\leq k\leq n\}$ in the following.

For $1 \leq s \leq \ell-1,$ from Proposition~\ref{prop4.1}
we have $\phi_{s} \geq \phi_{s+1}$ since $\sum_{i=1}^{s}d_{i} \geq s(s-1).$
For $\ell \leq t \leq n-1,$
note that $\sum_{i=1}^{t}d_{i} < t(t-1)$ implies $d_{t} < t-1,$
and hence $\sum_{i=1}^{t+1}d_{i} < t(t-1)+(t-1) < t(t+1).$
From Proposition~\ref{prop4.1} we have $\phi_{\ell} \leq \phi_{\ell+1} \leq \cdots \leq \phi_{n}$
since $\sum_{i=1}^{\ell}d_{i} < \ell(\ell-1).$
The result follows.
\end{proof}

Cat's a bit of a vegan-dabbler, although it will take a lot to turn Matt's head away from sausages. Talking of which, we were delighted to have it further confirmed that vegan food needn't be sawdusty fauxages. When in the supremely talented hands of Quay Arts chef Dave Holley, even the most humble vegetable can make our tastebuds sing. In a collaboration with local illustrator Lilly Louise Allen, the Quay produced a twelve course tasting menu and the food was all plant-based.
Each dish was warmly introduced by Quay Arts general manager, Paul Armfield, who explained that with twelve dishes to enjoy, we'd have to keep to time! That was easy enough with the first course – nettle tea with edible flowers.
Each course had a seasonal theme and June's dish was an extremely strong opener, with asparagus and fennel on a stunning disc of pickled kohlrabi – hints of juniper, clove and other spices danced on our tongues.
For July, Dave Holley created a superb refreshing salad of rocket and strawberries, with little dobs of (vegan) soft cheese.
Before you get all finger-pointing about salad, check out this rich gazpacho soup. Served with oak-smoked tomatoes and sweet micro-basil, it was another dish with layered flavours.
That may look like smoked salmon, but it was a zingy grapefruit puree, served on corn salsa and avocado purée.
If you've never eaten mushroom paper, you need to rectify that by whatever means. One of Cat's favourite ingredients given an unusual treatment, which brought out its distinctive flavour.. And, when served with figs and blue 'cheese', October was another great month.
Well into autumn vegetables with delightful roasted squash and cherry tomatoes, served with lime pickle. The squash were baked rind-on, which – according to Matt – gave them a hint of porky scratching texture. He may have just been wishful thinking.
Any non-meat eater who has had to suffer the ignomy of Christmas dinner with parents who imagine that a bowl of sprouts will do, should hire chef Dave to teach their old folks a lesson. This pistachio and mushroom pie with cranberries and port jus, was so succulent it was hard to believe it was not meaty!
Into January and beetroot is still on-trend and, in this dish, it was also on top of puréed celeriac. An earthy combo.
Frankly, we were still recovering from our December pie, when rhubarb crumble and cashew ice cream hoved into view. The crumble was particularly note-worthy, or should that be nut-worthy, as it was mostly made of chopped roasted hazelnuts. Fab.
Any suggestion that a vegan diet might not be sufficiently calorific, was swept away with these delicious buckwheat pancakes, served with banana and orange sauce.
The last dish, April, was the motherlode! A vast intensely-chocolatey egg, filled with chocolate, hazelnut mousse and rich malt cream.
As mentioned, this meal was a collaboration between Dave and Lilly Allen, whose lovely illustrations not only adorned the menu, but were also framed around the cafe wall – a true art and food collaborative showcase.


The world of Shondaland is a busy one, and it doesn't look like it's losing energy anytime soon. Although Scandal is ending later this year, Grey's Anatomy and How to Get Away with Murder remain solid powerhouses on the ABC schedule. Shonda Rhimes, the monarch of the network's epic TGIT lineup, also has a long-awaited Grey's Anatomy spinoff in store that will debut on March 22. Aside from the fact that the featured occupation of these new characters is firefighting, we know very little about the series, including its title. However, this certainly isn't stopping fans from anticipating the show and coming up with punny nicknames for the hot firefighters. Would recycling the name McSteamy be too easy?
The truth of the matter is [that] coming up with a title is one of the most challenging things we do. We've gone through a number of different options and ideas. We want to make sure what we stick on it is the perfect piece.
So, for now, the show is unofficially just the "Grey's Anatomy spinoff." As seen on Grey's first spinoff, Private Practice, an existing character will appear on the new series as a lead. Jason George's Dr. Ben Warren is making that move after his decision to join the fire department was announced in a recent Season 14 Grey's episode. Ben will soon transfer to a tight-knit fire station as a new recruit. There aren't any clues on what this means for Ben's relationship with Bailey — can I keep my fingers crossed for a Chandra Wilson guest appearance in the new show?
The other characters will hold various fire department ranks. According to showrunner Stacy McKee, female lead Jaina Lee Ortiz will first appear in an upcoming episode of Grey's Anatomy, setting the stage for the series premiere. Her character Andy is the daughter of the crew's captain, and she experiences her own romantic drama when she's torn between a colleague and a high school sweetheart. This little love triangle probably means we can count on a hot hookup in the firehouse sooner rather than later. The rest of the relatively unfamiliar cast also includes Friday Night Lights' Grey Damon and Hamilton alumnus Okieriete Onaodowan.
They are not blood relatives, but they are family hands down, almost beyond anything else. They eat dinner together, they live together every 24-hour shift; literally, they're a family for those periods when they're on shift, a family that also happens to completely and utterly have their lives depending on each other in a way that virtually no other job does.
Of course, that cozy family feeling will take some time to develop. What is a show about a new person entering such a different place without some initial tension? If you're worried about Ben trying to adjust without the help of the gang at Grey Sloan Memorial, there's hope for some crossover between the two shows. George revealed that he will still occasionally appear on Grey's Anatomy, while some of the original series's characters will show up in the spinoff.
Given the onslaught of medical dramas on TV, I'm so ready for Shondaland to take on a lesser seen setting in this show. The spinoff will premiere at 9 p.m. ET on ABC on March 22. I'd mark that calendar now if I were you.


Throughout her sporting career Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson has championed a commitment to integrity in sport. The 16-time Paralympic medalist is a director of UK Athletics and a trustee of The Duke of Edinburgh's Award (DofE) in the UK. With the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow just around the corner, we caught up with her and asked how she thinks the Award helps to encourage young people into sport.
How did you get into wheelchair racing and did you ever imagine you'd be a Bronze medal holder before the age of twenty?
I was always a sporty child and therefore it felt like a natural thing to do. I don't remember a time when I didn't want to compete but you don't suddenly win medals, it takes time to build up and up.
What was it about wheelchair racing that appealed to you in particular?
I think it was because I was in charge of my own destiny; all of the training and preparation is all entirely down to you.
Over the years you've put in a tremendous amount of dedication to sport and have achieved fantastic results, what advice would you give to young people who are struggling to find the motivation to complete their Duke of Edinburgh's International Award?
Completing the Award is a massively proud moment for you and your family, but also gives you a huge sense of personal achievement. The Award is good training for the rest of your life. Life is not just about what you are good at doing but about overcoming barriers and challenges and that is what the Award teaches you to do.
What comparisons can be drawn between sport and the Award?
The Award is about doing it incrementally; you don't just get this overnight success and in sport you train everyday over a four year period for one Paralympic games. The Award teaches you the value of hard work and persistence and making your own luck.
Baroness Grey-Thompson has continued her dedication to sport off the track as a board member for both the London Marathon and the London Legacy Development Corporation. She was appointed a member of Transport for London in 2008 and, since 2010, has served as a non-party political crossbench peer. Read more about Baroness Grey-Thompson's sporting career.
Do you have a Commonwealth Connection? Maybe you're completing your Award in a Commonwealth country, or went on an expedition to one? Perhaps you've even competed in the Games or have a relative who did. We'd love to hear your stories about the Games.
What would you like the Commonwealth Games 2014 to leave behind for Scotland, the UK and the Commonwealth? If you could make one wish – what would it be? Make your Commonwealth Games Legacy Wish today.

I was editor of The Malaya Tribune, a daily newspaper in Singapore, sleepily okaying Page One when 17 Japanese Zero bombers shattered the night. It was December 8, 1941. Having been fed daily stories full of optimism from London, we in Singapore hadn't an inkling that war with Japan was imminent ... I sneaked out when there was a pause in the bombing. Limbs of every description - European, Indian, Chinese, Malay and Eurasian - were everywhere. Parapuram Joseph John - 'John' to all - is given an ultimatum by the Japanese invaders: work for us or face the consequences. He becomes No.2 at the Domei news agency, working on Japanese propaganda in Southeast Asia and broadcasting propaganda to Indian troops in India, urging them to switch sides and fight against the British, for which he receives a special commendation from Heinrich Himmler - 'I was not happy about Himmler's intrusion into my life, but I kept my mouth shut and my neck intact'. John writes about wanton killings in Singapore and Malaya, the daily struggle to find food, and Blood Alley in Penang, where he witnesses a 'cleansing'. He talks candidly about the rise of the Indian National Army and its charismatic leader Subhas Chandra Bose (whom he meets on several occasions), the creation of the all-female Rani of Jhansi combat regiment and the lure of the nationalist call of 'Challo Dilli' ('On to Delhi'). This is a fascinating eyewitness account of the Japanese occupation of Singapore and Malaya as told by a career journalist. Following the war, John returned to The Malaya Tribune, where his deputy was S. Rajaratnam, the future Deputy Prime Minister of Singapore.

Making the case for cannabis in rehab
Andrew Mernin
NRT: What are the headline findings from the report for people working with brain and spinal injury clients?
MB: There is now good evidence to show that cannabis, including the non-psychoactive component CBD, can help to treat chronic pain – such as that experienced post spinal
or brain injury – spasticity, nausea and vomiting and anxiety.
We also found moderate evidence that it helps to stimulate appetite, which may also be relevant to neuro-rehab units.
There was limited evidence to support cannabis's role in alleviating depression
and in brain protection in the context of traumatic brain injury.
What about the risk of schizophrenia associated with cannabis use?
Most literature supports a causal hypothesis between cannabis use and psychosis, particularly if usage starts at an early age and if the individual has a genetic predisposition to psychosis. It is unlikely that any one environmental factor (such as cannabis use) or any one gene can cause schizophrenia on its own. It appears that cannabis is a component cause in the development of symptoms of schizophrenia and the onset of this mental illness depends upon many interacting factors. However, it is also important to remember that most people who use cannabis do not develop schizophrenia, and most people with schizophrenia have never used cannabis.
It is likely that THC is the main cannabinoid which triggers schizophrenia and psychosis. CBD on the other hand is known to be anti-psychotic and may have a therapeutic role as an anti-psychotic agent although further studies are required.
What impact does cannabis have on chronic pain?
Current treatment for severe chronic pain is often effective but can be associated with serious side effects. Opioids, for example, carry very serious risks, including mortality. Chronic pain is one of the leading reasons for medical use of cannabis in the UK. It is known that the endocannabinoid system is one of the key bodily systems that regulate pain sensation with actions at all stages of the pain processing pathway. Neural signalling through both CB1 and CB2 receptors has a key
role in normal pain processing and considerable animal model and pre-clinical data on both patients and healthy volunteers confirm that modulation of the endocannabinoid system can reduce pain. Cannabis products nabilone, dronabinol, nabiximols and smoked marijuana have all been shown to be efficacious to varying extents in a variety of pain settings in good quality studies. We concluded that there is good evidence for efficacy of cannabis for pain relief in various formulations and in a number of settings.
Could cannabis play a greater role in the management of spasticity after spinal and brain injuries?
There is good evidence for the efficacy of the cannabis extract nabiximols for reducing patient-reported spasticity symptoms, although there is not firm evidence for improvement in objective measures. We consider there is good evidence of safety in the long-term and for continued efficacy. We also consider there is moderate evidence for the efficacy of oral cannabis extract for reducing patient-reported spasticity scores. There is insufficient evidence to make any recommendations with regard to other forms of cannabis. One study we considered assessed the effect of nabilone on spasticity after spinal cord injury (Pooyania et al 2010). The research involved 11 subjects who either received nabilone or a placebo during a four-week period and after a two-week washout, subjects were crossed to the opposite arm of the study. There was a significant decrease on active treatment for the Ashworth score in the most involved muscle as well as the total Ashworth score. There were no significant differences in secondary measures which included the spasm frequency scale and the clinician's and subject's global impression of change. Side effects were mild and tolerable.
Anxiety is particularly prevalent with people coming to terms with severe injuries. Could they benefit from cannabis?
Cannabis can both increase and decrease anxiety in humans. CBD has been shown to reduce anxiety whereas THC, the psychoactive part of the drug, usually has the converse effect. Overall, we consider there is good evidence for CBD use in anxiety. This evidence base includes a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled clinical study led by Bergamaschi in 2011. It showed
that orally-administered CBD was associated with a significant can't reduction in anxiety, cognitive impairment, and discomfort in patients suffering from generalised social anxiety disorder subjected to a simulated public-speaking test. A further study carried out by Crippa and colleagues (2011) looked at the effect of CBD on anxiety and the brain mechanisms involved. This double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled study found that CBD significantly decreased anxiety and that this was related to its effects on the limbic and paralimbic brain areas. Improved anxiety levels have also been reported in patients suffering from chronic neuropathic pain (Ware et al 2010b).
What conclusions did you draw about cannabis and epilepsy?
There is certainly a theoretical basis to suggest that cannabis could have implications for epilepsy. While animal model and early human studies are promising, however, at the moment robust trials are lacking but further results are awaited. So there is only limited evidence currently.
In which other areas related to neuro-rehab would you like to see more studies carried out in future?
There is a theoretical basis to suggest cannabinoids could provide neuroprotection in the context of traumatic brain injury, but as yet, evidence is limited and unconvincing. There is no evidence to support neuroprotection in stroke and, in fact, limited evidence shows that heavy recreational users have a slightly increased risk of stroke. So further clarity in these two areas could be hugely beneficial to neuro-rehab professionals. It was also surprising to discover that, despite a long history of cannabis use in headache and migraine, there are no good quality randomised clinical trials. I would like to see more studies into neuropathic headaches in particular.
What regulatory hurdles are stopping
people benefitting from the medicinal properties of cannabis?
We currently have a shambolic situation in which the very recognition of cannabis as a medicine has potentially delayed its obtainability by people who really need it by several years. Until October this year, CBD was legal to purchase in the UK. Then the MHRA [Medicines and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency], which is sponsored by the Department of Health, said it now recognises that CBD could potentially have medicinal value and should be considered a medicine. This is dependent, however, on manufacturers providing proof of its efficacy. Therefore, individuals, including young children with resistant epilepsy, may not be able to legally obtain CBD in the near future. They won't be able to until the producers can satisfy the regulations for medicinal products, which will take some years.
Is this situation likely to be resolved anytime soon?
It's only a matter of time before the UK government legalises cannabis for medical purposes as we are so far behind the rest of the world now. Several more American states have just voted to legalise it there, while it is also now legal in at least 10 European countries. We are way behind on this and conflicted because of this nonsense with the rescheduling of CBD.

How mental health impacts physical rehabilitation
Breakthrough Case Management discuss how a client's physical rehabilitation is inextricably linked with their mental wellbeing
Mental health issues are all too common, with the numbers of people impacted by mental ill health rising significantly, particularly as the effects of the pandemic continue to be realised.
And while the true extent of such problems is probably yet to be fully understood, research is continually uncovering the power of the connection between the body and mind.
For those of us working with individuals who have experienced a life changing injury, the impact of mental health on physical rehabilitation is clear to see – in both positive and negative ways.
With around one in four people in the UK experiencing a mental health problem every year, it's possible that someone living with life-changing injury faced mental health challenges before their accident – which only amplifies the situation they now face.
But even if someone has no pre-existing mental health concerns, such injury will most probably adversely affect their wellbeing.
This can manifest in feelings of overwhelming distress, confusion, anger, fear, hopelessness, anxiety and depression or the development of phobias, panic disorder, catastrophisation or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Awareness of mental health and its implications is vital knowledge for any case manager. Because of the close connection between the health of the body and mind, and the potential for mental struggles to impact on physical recovery, mental health support is an important element of nearly all our rehabilitation programmes.
From a Breakthrough Case Management perspective, our rehabilitation programmes will almost always bring in a qualified psychologist. We understand the impact mental turmoil can have on a client, and we work with a team of psychologists who we match with a client depending on their requirements and their injury or situation.
Mental health support should always be considered as part of a holistic approach to rehabilitation, so we work collaboratively with the entire multi-disciplinary team, to understand the challenges our clients are facing and deliver the support they need to move beyond them.
There is so much going on for someone who has experienced a life changing injury, which might include anything from sleep problems and financial difficulties to relationship issues. We understand that when we ask someone to be motivated and push themselves physically, it's going to be even harder if they aren't feeling well mentally.
But while many people struggle badly with significant mental health issues, the situation can vary greatly from person to person. It doesn't need to be a mental health crisis or severe depression to require attention and action, the symptoms can be less severe.
Feeling overwhelmed and fearful is common after a traumatic injury, which can lead to lower motivation, reduced engagement or a wish to isolate. All of these factors can cause great distress to a person (and their family), which can also delay or impact the success of physical rehabilitation.
We see clients who sometimes feel the effort required may not be worth it. This might be because the gains don't seem big enough, the status quo feels more comfortable, or they are frightened they will injure themselves further.
They can withdraw, feel helpless and become anxious – but staying in that place limits potential. We're here to help our clients take back control and look towards a more positive future.
So, what can we do when a client is struggling to cope with their mental health? The psychologist's role in the multi-disciplinary team is vital, to identify the problem and develop a plan to address it. But every member of the team needs to be involved if a client is going to reach their goals, whether that's getting themselves out of bed in the morning or walking a mile.
At Breakthrough, our case managers work with each client as an individual to find out exactly what they need to reach their goals and then bring together the best possible team to support them.
This might involve a personal trainer, occupational therapist, neuro-physiotherapist, vocational therapist and psychologist for example. They will also identify any other issues that might be interacting to affect ongoing rehabilitation – such as sleep, appetite or medication – and organise professional, practical or financial help to address them.
Even before establishing a team, the starting point is to set realistic SMART goals broken down into achievable milestones, which a client can get behind and truly believe they are able to achieve.
These goals must be backed up by trust – in the case manager, team and whole rehabilitation process. Developing this trust starts from the very first time we meet a client, where we start to build their confidence in our professional expertise and experience.
When someone has been traumatised, rehabilitation can take a long time and it is, of course, not always easy. But with a plan and the right support it is possible to overcome obstacles that might have previously felt insurmountable.
The more people push themselves forward and see the benefits of the work they put in, the more resilient they become.
A positive attitude is also important. At Breakthrough Case Management, we are naturally optimistic, and this positivity, alongside our tenacity, supports our clients.
We won't ever give people false hope – we never promise that everything is going to be all right when it isn't. But what we will always do is work together to find out what is possible, set realistic goals and make the most of a client's potential to reach those goals.
Through our own experience, we know the physical, mental and practical challenges our clients face are inextricably linked.
We know we can support their mental health, and in turn physical rehabilitation, by taking some of the anxiety away.
This might be something as simple as organising payment of bills or sorting out basic house maintenance, and while these practicalities are peripheral to the main problem, they are often the straw that breaks the camel's back.
We are here to help and ensure our clients feel cared for physically and mentally, because effective physical rehabilitation isn't possible without good mental health support.
Are we neurological time travellers?
Lisa Beaumont looks at the similarities between young stroke survivors and people living with Young Onset Parkinson's Disease
Advocating for Neuro ProActive has provided many introductions to numerous neuro visionaries.
For example, my response to a recent LinkedIn message from the national charity Spotlight YOPD, representing those with Young Onset Parkinson's, saw CEO Gaynor Edwards pop in for a socially distanced cuppa. She brought fellow YOPDer and former neuroscientist Dr Jon Stamford with her.
Therefore, since I am always keen to talk to the best brains in the sector I was happy to host – they brought cake to make the meeting all the sweeter. Rapidly, I discovered that young 'strokies' and young 'Parkies' have a lot in common – the conversation was easy and animated.
In both cases we were living with conditions more commonly associated with the elderly than those in midlife – as the three of us are.
Sitting round the kitchen table we all had hope – and a belief that as advocates for our conditions we could and would make a difference. As the generation of personal computers and mobile phones, we will probably be using AI to make some of that difference. Three smartphones sat alongside the mugs of tea and cake plates on the table.
Health technology apps like Neuro ProActive in the hands of the right people – those impacted neurologically – is a potential game changer.
I was fascinated to hear from them about how much they feel an affinity with young stroke survivors, like me.
Three reasons for affinity between stroke survivors and YOPD
1. We defy expectations
Most importantly, both groups, 'Strokies' and 'Parkies' face a shared challenge in that our conditions are popularly associated with elderly patients not mid-life people, like us.
2. Digitally capable
Thanks to our relative youthfulness, we are a tech savvy patient community and have the confidence to ask questions and demand attention from medics and peers.
Both our charities, West Kent Different Strokes Peer Support Group and Spotlight YOPD are so excited about the roll-out of Neuro ProActive nationally and internationally. We both support cohorts of young patients who will welcome the opportunity to have some agency in their treatment programme by being empowered to self-manage their condition digitally.
3. Multi-disciplinary teams
Despite the clear difference between stroke rehab's management of rehabilitation and YOPD's need to manage its degenerative symptoms, both groups share the need of input from a range of AHPs.
Access to neuroproactive.com will give us an easy platform to reach those practitioners with whom we will be able to communicate, record progress and set goals in one place.
The identification of these three similarities between stroke survivors and YOPD reminded me of this quotation from Shakespeare: "Misery acquaints a man with strange bed-fellows".( Tempest Act 2, scene ii).
Neither group feels miserable. By contrast, we feel excited. We are happy to promote the possibilities for improved care for our conditions in future.
I have discovered a new empathy for those who are diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson's Disease, and those who remain undiagnosed. It is significant that reliable data is hard to find for this condition.
It is a game-changer for Neuro ProActive that Ian Pearce tweeted news in December 2021:
Delighted to announce that, following a public tender, @NeuroProActive will be adopted by the South Wales Trauma Network. This will involve integration with EPRs and an independent research study on 500+ patients funded by The World Economic Forum.
Value Based Healthcare Wales. Likewise the news of its adoption by Leeds Children's Hospital.
More patients and data will deliver better outcomes for all neurological conditions, which like Shakespeare's themes can apply to any age. Strokies and Parkies feel old and young simultaneously.
Therefore, we feel like time-travellers.

The desire for discharge home
Renovo Care Group share a case study of delivering the rehabilitation and goals to help achieve the return home
One of the most common patient goals we work towards in acute neurorehabilitation is often the one to be discharged home or to an alternative placement.
We recently had a patient admitted for a six-week assessment period to determine whether an escalation of distress was psychologically driven, neurologically driven or a mixture of the two. To give a bit of context to this situation, this gentleman had cerebral metastasis in his right frontal lobe secondary to lung cancer and had been sectioned several times over the past year due to risky behaviours towards self and others. Whilst he had a few goals that he wanted to achieve during his time with us, the main one was to go home to his family after rehabilitation.
Given that we had a short assessment period, the first question we asked ourselves was how were we going to work with him to achieve his goal?
Upon his inpatient admission, the gentleman was seen twice a week by physiotherapy and two to three times a week by neuropsychology for assessment. Physiotherapists and neuropsychologists are guided by evidence-based practice in their professions and use their knowledge from practice to develop the evidence.
After understanding the cause of an injury, they work to ease physical and psychological symptoms using a variety of techniques. Assessments using outcome measures and formulations are conducted to gain a holistic view to help to determine the best course of treatment for a patient.
The main goal of physiotherapy sessions for this individual was to improve his endurance, strength, and participation in activities that he enjoyed. He was measured for his upper/lower limb strength using the Oxford scale. ROM (Range of Motion) and MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale) were also used to identity that he had a normal passive and active range of motion over all joints, and no muscle spasms were evident.
Finally, we assessed using the Berg Balance Scale, which is an objective way of determining how well a patient can safely balance during a series of predetermined tasks. He scored 55/56 which indicated a low risk of falls.
Initially the main goal of neuropsychology was to assess the gentleman's cognition, behaviour, and emotions to hypothesis whether the distress he displayed was neurologically driven.
Maja Kreninger, physiotherapy assistant
Whilst he was previously screened using a brief cognitive test several years earlier, there did not appear to be a reassessment since the cerebral metastasis diagnosis. Therefore a comprehensive baseline to measure any further changes was required.
During inpatient sessions, the gentleman completed a battery of psychometric assessments to measure his current level of cognition. This included a test of premorbid functioning to find out an estimate for intellectual level before diagnosis, a current level of cognitive functioning (after diagnosis), language, attention, memory, and executive functions (higher-level thinking skills such as planning, cognitive flexibility, decision-making etc).
His behaviour and emotions were tracked over time using a mood/ behaviour diary filled out by ward staff. Mood and quality of life measures were also completed.
Our second question then became, how ethical is it to just provide an assessment when an intervention may also prove effective?
The simple answer is that it is not ethical. What is the point of putting a person through intensive assessment that may evoke anxiety or frustration if you aren't going to provide them with the tools or strategies to support the areas of difficulty? It was obvious that this individual wanted to go home after his assessment period, but it was likely that he would still benefit from having neuropsychology and physiotherapy input.
The model we jointly decided on with him was for him to come in as an outpatient one day per week. With input from his family, he concluded that Wednesdays were a good day for him to travel to the hospital, engage in his sessions and travel back home. That way his preference of living at home and receiving neurorehabilitation could be adhered to.
Initially he was scheduled in for two neuropsychology sessions and one physiotherapy session with rest breaks in between. However, it became apparent after the first outpatient appointment that he was unable to cope with the high cognitive and physical demands placed on him in his sessions and catching the bus all in one day.
In order to manage his fatigue levels neuropsychology sessions would reduce to once a week to and the number of weeks that he would be an outpatient would be extended to ensure that he received the intervention required.
As part of the physiotherapy intervention, the gentleman commenced a personalised strength training program using multiple gym machines. He was given a booklet with details about the exercises, correct methods, resistance, and repetitions so that he could access the gym on his own.
Joint sessions with Occupational Therapy were completed to ensure he could access the community, and exercises helped increase aerobic tolerance. This proved to be successful as he was able to independently go into town to complete activities of daily living, e.g., buying presents, going to the hairdressers etc.
As fatigue was one of the challenges encountered during sessions, physiotherapy focused on gradually increasing the amount of activity completed in a graded, flexible way that was monitored continuously.
Similarly, neuropsychology also created an individualised intervention to help build his awareness into his brain injury. The intervention consisted of six sessions to improve knowledge of the structure and function of the brain, neuroplasticity, fatigue, and cognitive and emotional changes after brain tumour.
The sessions highlighted strengths and weaknesses of his cognitive, behavioural and emotional profile providing feedback from the neuropsychological assessments. It also included strategies which could be implemented to support the gentleman at home. He was given his
Ellie Knight, assistant psychologist
own folder with all of the session information to use as a memory aid and to share with family.
Over time, he began to recognise his limitations in relation to fatigue and understood that he could take breaks, complete tasks when he was less tired and show self-compassion.
He reported that his brain injury awareness improved, and he felt much steadier on his feet. He started to engage in community activities such as going to the cinema and regularly walking near his home. After seven weeks as an outpatient the gentleman was discharged from our neurorehabilitation service – his main goal achieved.
Upon reflection, the first step of his rehabilitation was setting SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-related) goals that were tailored to his needs and wishes. This improved his motivation and confidence to participate in sessions knowing that we were all working with him to achieve discharge home.
Developing a sense of strength is a personal journey for every patient, whether it is physical, mental or in an everyday setting. As rehabilitation practitioners it should be our duty to assist them in this journey which will lead to improving their wellbeing and quality of life.

Exemplar Health Care opens latest specialist care home


WIMBLEDON, England -- Two of the top 10 men's seeds were eliminated from the Wimbledon Championships Saturday, when Derrick Rostagno dumped No. 8 Pete Sampras and Nick Brown stunned the 10th seed Goran Ivanisevic.
Brown's victory was by far the most shocking of the second-round matches. As the 591st ranked player in the world, the Britain's upset was the greatest at Wimbledon since computer rankings were introduced to the tournament in 1973. Brown advanced with a 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (7-3), 6-3 victory over the Yugoslav who advanced to the 1990 semifinals and was the fourth favorite in the betting to win this year's crown.
In a battle of Americans, Rostagno scored a 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (7-3), 6-4 upset over Sampras -- the 1990 U.S. Open champion.
Rostagno, of Pacific Palisades, Calif., is ranked only 15 places lower than Sampras and has a far more impressive Wimbledon record. Sampras, of Bradenton, Fla., was eliminated in the first round of his two previous Wimbledon appearances.
Another men's seed fell when Todd Woodbridge of Australia upset No. 13 Jakob Hlasek of Switzerland, 6-3, 1-6, 7-5, 6-3.
Two women's seeds were beaten. No. 6 Jana Novotna of Yugoslavia lost 4-6, 7-6, 6-4 to Brenda Schultz of Holland, and Linda Harvey-Wild of Hawthorn Woods, Ill., defeat No. 12 seed Natalia Zvereva of the Soviet Union, 6-4, 6-1.
Most of the 25 seeds who played had little trouble Saturday on the first sunny day of the week. In the men's bracket, No. 1 Stefan Edberg, No. 2 Boris Becker, No. 4 Jim Courier, No. 5 Andre Agassi, No. 6 Michael Stitch, No. 14 Karel Novacek, No. 15 Brad Gilbert and No. 16 John McEnroe moved into the third round.
Also, unseeded Jimmy Connors, at 38 the oldest player in the tournament, celebrated his 100th Wimbledon singles match with a 6-3, 6- 2, 6-3 victory over Aaron Krickstein. No. 7 seed Guy Forget of France defeated Israeli Gilad Bloom 2-6, 7-6 (7-2) 7-5, 6-7 (4-7), 6-4 in a first-round match which was halted in the fifth set by bad light Friday.
Australian Pat Cash, the 1987 champion, was eliminated by Frenchman Thierry Champion 7-5, 6-7 (5-7), 4-6, 6-1, 12-10 in a three-hour and 50- mSunday.
Among women seeds, No. 2 Gabriela Sabatini, No. 3 Martina Navratilova, No. 4 Arantxa Sanchez Vicario, No. 5 Mary Joe Fernandez, No. 7 Zina Garrison, No. 8 Katerina Maleeva, No. 9 Jennifer Capriati, No. 13 Anke Huber, No. 14 Amy Frazier and No. 16 Judith Wiesner all won in straight sets.
No. 11 Nathalie Tauziat of France battled back to defeat Akiko Kijimuta of Japan 3-6, 6-2, 6-2.
Brown, who got into the tournament on a wild card, had already broken new ground by reaching the second round for the first time in four attempts.
'I regard my first-round win as a milestone, but today's victory was the greatest of my career,' the 29-year-old said.
Ivanisevic had made some disparaging comments about the standards of British players before the tournament began, saying there were no players from the home nation capable of taking three sets off a top seed at Wimbledon.
Agassi, the reformed rebel who has won over the hearts of the Wimbledon crowds, turned on his skills for the No. 1 court spectators Saturday, following his earlier Center Court appearance.
Agassi, a 21-year-old from Las Vegas, Nev., is known for his colorful d ess on court but has been a model of white-outfitted decorum during the tournament. He defeated Yugoslav Goran Prpic 7-6 (7-3), 3-6, 6-2, 6- 2 in a 2:35 match.
After losing the second set and falling behind in the third, Agassi took control with four blistering winners.
Agassi, who last appeared at Wimbledon as a 17-year-old four years ago, was pleased with the reception he has received here.
'I feel like a qualifier who is having the best tournament of his life,' he said.
Courier, the French Open champion, was taken five sets by felow American Jim Grabb before winning 6-4, 7-6 (7-4), 2-6, 4-6, 6-3. Stich, of Germany, also dropped a set in defeating Italian Diego Nargiso 6-3, 6-4, 6-7 (6-8), 6-2.
Two-time champion Edberg continued with his title defense in characteristic unflappable style. The top-seeded Swede, who has contested the last three finals against German Boris Becker, rolled over American David Pate 6-2, 6-2, 6-3.
There were contrasting v9atjries for former champions McEnroe and Connors.
Becker, a three-time Wimbledon champion, had a tougher time than expected. He needed 2:37 to defeat Sweden's Peter Lundgren, 7-6 (7-3), 7-5, 7-5.
'The first set was very close and overall it wasn't easy,' Becker admitted.
Navratilova, the women's defending champion chasing her 10th Wimbledon crown, recovered from her first-round scare to dump Amanda Grunfeld of Britain 6-1, 6-3 in 52 minutes. The victory came four days afte Navratilova dropped her first set against South African Elna Reinach.
'Well, it was a little bit easier today,' said Navratilova, who added she remainsd as hungry as ever.
Sabatini and Sanchez Vicario both recovered from sluggish starts.
Sabatini, the U.S. Open champion, trailed 0-3 before completing a 6- 4, 6-2 victory over Karine Quentrec of France, who is ranked 71st in the world.
Sanchez Vicario, winner of the 1989 French Open, slipped into a higher gear in the second set of her second-round clash against South African Amanda Coetzer for a 6-4, 6-1 win in 55 minutes.

Now that your blog is self-hosted on SiteGround the next step is choosing the perfect WordPress theme. Your theme is what your readers are going to see first. Think of it as your first introduction to your brand. You want to take into consideration the overall feel you are going for, who your audience is going to be, and your blog's purpose.
This might seem like a random first step, but it will honestly set you up for the most success from the get go. I suggest taking some time to look at other websites and blogs you like. Jot down some notes on what you like about them. Do you like the color scheme? Are there specific features you enjoy? How do the different layouts look and what ones are your favorite?
Don't forget to take notes on the things you don't like. Is the blog hard to navigate? Can you easily tell what their blog is about? Are there fonts and links that are easier to read than others?
Once you've brainstormed and have a better idea of what you are looking for it will be easier to narrow down a theme for your blog. There are going to be many factors to think about when choosing between a free theme or premium theme. Free themes are great if you are on a budget or blogging more for a hobby. Maybe you aren't really sure yet if you want to jump into the business side and would rather spend some time building an audience first.
Premium themes may cost a little upfront, but they offer lots of advantages. They typically offer more features than free themes. They are also updated more regularly and coding is better for features like mobile responsiveness. If you are setting your blog up for business purposes, it is best to start with a premium theme.
Now that some of the decision making is out of the way, it's time to look at themes.
In the Dashboard of your blog click on Themes under the Appearance tab.
If you are looking for a free theme, click on WordPress.org Themes at the top.
Select Feature Filter tab at the top.
Here you can select the features you brainstormed about and want for your website under the Layout, Features, and Subject columns.
Once you have your features selected, click on Apply Filters.
You can go through and select Preview on each theme and view how it will look.
If you find one you like, select Install on that theme.
Click on Demo for each theme to view how you can customize the theme for your blog.
If you find one you like, select Buy for that theme and follow the steps.
There are thousands of websites that sell WordPress themes. It can be fun to search through these sites, but also overwhelming at times. If you decide to choose one of these websites you want to make sure they have good reviews and great support. I personally found my WordPress theme on Pipdig. They are a popular site for finding modern designs for the lifestyle, beauty, and fashion bloggers.
Once you have chosen and installed your WordPress theme, now comes the fun part! Go back to your dashboard and select Customize under the Appearance tab. This will take you to a live demo of your blog where you can play with the layout, colors, fonts, and so many fun things to make your blog uniquely you!

This sounds so great! I am on Blogger currently, but I have to say I did think about what the benefits might be if I switched.
I think there are benefits to each platform. If you ever decide to switch, I'd be happy to answer any questions and fill you in on the benefits with WordPress.
This is really helpful for newbies. I had such a hard time in the beginning learning how to customize my theme to get the look I wanted, but it's fun to play around with.

The National Park Service is not responsible for the determinations in this notice. Consultation A detailed assessment of the human remains was made by the Kent State University Anthropology Department and Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum professional staff in consultation with representatives of the Delaware Nation, Oklahoma; Delaware Tribe of Indians; Seneca Nation of Indians [previously listed as Seneca Nation of New York]; and the Seneca-Caygua Nation [previously listed as Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma].

Hereafter, all Indian Tribes listed in this section are referred to as ''The Consulted and Invited Tribes.'' History and Description of the Remains In 1969, human remains representing, at minimum, one individual were removed from the Eshman Farm site in Muskingum County, OH. The site is upriver from the Muskingum River Bridge at Dresden. It contained a low burial mound located in the side yard near the Eschman House. This low burial mound was excavated by amateur archeologists Glenn Longaberger and Frank Stratman in 1969. The site collection was donated to the JohnsonHumrickhouse Museum in 1974, shortly following the death of Glenn Longaberger. The Museum has no accession record or description of the excavation, only a 1983 article in the Ohio Archaeologist by Jeff Carskadden and Jim Morton. The fragmentary human remains belong to an individual of unknown sex thought to be between 13–20 years old. Based on information in the Carskadden and Morton article, the human remains have been identified as Shawnee. No known individual was identified. The three associated funerary objects are one Micmac stone pipe, one lock plate and cock from a flint lock rifle, and one brass harness bell. The Eschman Farm site was occupied during the Hopewell Period (200 BCE to 500 CE). Subsequently, it was occupied by the Shawnee Tribe. Longaberger determined the site to be Hopewell based on the mound architecture, the artifacts, and the Hopewell presence in E:\FR\FM\17DEN1.SGM 17DEN1 71654 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 240 / Friday, December 17, 2021 / Notices the area. Later, the Shawnee moved into the site and established a village around the mound called Wakatomika (Carskadden and Morton, 1983).
