The acting president of Karabakh, Bako Sahakyan is reelected. The presidential vote took place on Wednesday during the National Assembly special session.
As it was reported earlier, two candidates were nominated for presidency. They were: MP Eduard Aghabekyan, who has been nominated by the Movement 88 faction of the NA; and incumbent President Bako Sahakyan, who was nominated by the Fatherland, Dashnaktsutyun, and Democracy factions of the Artsakh parliament.
On February 20, the NKR held a constitutional referendum, and 87 percent of the electorate voted for the proposed constitutional amendments.
Pursuant to these amendments, a transition will be made from a semi-presidential to a presidential system of government in Artsakh.
And, accordingly, the National Assembly will elect the President until 2020—for the transitional period.

Amy Winehouse: 15 Things You Didn't Know (Part 1)
By Clement Derrida
FeaturedLifePeople
lindasdigiart.com
Amy Winehouse is one of the most well-remembered stars who suffered one of the most tragic demises of all time. Though she may have led a tumultuous life, there are some things about her that are worth digging up. Below, we present 15 things you didn't know about Amy Winehouse, which we will bring to you in two parts. Check out part one below, and stay tuned for part two, coming soon!
Number Fifteen: She Was Inspired by Salt-n-Pepa. Growing up, Winehouse was part of a rap group she formed with her best friend, Juliette Ashby. They called themselves "Sweet 'N' Sour." Of course, Winehouse was "Sour," and Ashby was "Sweet."
Number Fourteen: She Didn't Always Want to Be a Musician. One of Winehouse's childhood dreams was to be a roller-skating waitress, otherwise known as a carhop. Can't you just see her in skates and a cute striped dress?
Number Thirteen: She's Pulled Some Crazy Stunts. During a photo shoot Winehouse was doing with Terry Richardson, she took a glass shard that was being used as a prop and carved the words "I Love Blake" into her stomach. The "Blake" she wrote is in reference to her fiance at the time, Blake Fielder-Civil.
Number Twelve: She Loved Animals. Winehouse loved cats so much that at one time it was rumored she had 11 cats. And she clearly had animal magnetism. One story alleges what while the singer was in Barbados in 2010, a monkey followed her everywhere she went for an entire week.
Number Eleven: She Had a Dream Superpower. If Winehouse could have any superpower, she would choose to have super sexuality. She also sad in an interview that she often used sex to relax.
Number Ten: The Most Important Life Lesson She Ever Learned Was… In a 2007 interview Winehouse did with The Guardian, she said that the most important lesson in life she ever learned was that, "You learn things every day, and life is short." She also mentioned in that interview that she wanted to be remembered as genuine.
Number Nine: She Never Finished School. Amy was attending the prestigious Sylvia Young Theatre School but was expelled before she graduated. She soon became famous, so she didn't really care.
Number Eight: The "Rehab" Inspiration. Winehouse's hit song, "Rehab," was actually inspired by her separation from her management company. She split from her company after they asked her to go to rehab for the abuse of alcohol.

Vincenzo Cartari (* 1531 ? in Reggio nell'Emilia; † 1569) ist ein italienischer Mythograph und Diplomat der Renaissance.

Cartari war Jean Seznec zufolge wohl ein Protegé der Herzöge von Ferrara. In seinem Werk Imagini colla sposizione degli dei degli antichi ("Bilder mit Darstellung der Götter der Alten") von 1556 nennt er als eine seiner Quellen Lilio Gregorio Giraldis Werk De deis gentium varia et multiplex historia, das im Jahr 1548 veröffentlicht worden war. Trotz des Erfolgs dieses Vorgängers wurde Cartaris Werk aufgrund seiner lebendigen Holzschnittdarstellungen der antiken Götter, die von einem gewissen Bolognino Zaltieri stammen sollen, ebenfalls populär. Es legt den Schwerpunkt auf die Ikonographie der Götter und erklärt ihre Kleidung, ihre Haltungen und Attribute. Giovanni Paolo Lomazzo sollte dieses Werk seinerseits verwenden. Der Antiquar und Philologe Lorenzo Pignoria fügte dem Werk in den Auflagen ab 1615 Anmerkungen und Ergänzungen hinzu und bemerkenswerterweise einen zweiten Teil mit Bildern der Götter der Indianer (Seconda Parte delle Imagini de gli Dei Indiani), eine kurze Reihe von Bildern mexikanischer und japanischer Gottheiten. Joachim von Sandrart nimmt in seiner Teutschen Academie Bezug auf Cartaris Werk, das er im Jahr 1680 in einer Übersetzung herausgibt, die überraschenderweise mit neuen Illustrationen versehen ist.

Alec Swift
Alec was the son of William Arthur (aka Arthur) and Mary Catherine Swift (née Stevens). His father, William Arthur, was born in Nottingham in 1859 (A/M/J Nottingham-Walker) and his mother, Mary Catherine Stevens, was born on 19 July 1858 (J/A/S Nottingham) also in Nottingham. They were married at St Wilfrid's church, Nottingham, on 23 January 1879 (J/F/M Basford). William and Mary had nine children all of whom except the eldest, May, were born in Nottingham: May Harriet b. Liverpool 1879 (J/A/S West Derby Lancashire), Robert William Harold b. 12 March 1881 (A/M/J Nottingham), Tom Stevens birth registered 1883 (J/F/M Nottingham), Elsie Lisse M b. 23 September 1884 (O/N/D Nottingham), Henry Arthur b. 1887 (A/M/J Nottingham), George Stanley (k/a Stanley) b. 1888 (O/N/D Basford), Alec b. 1890 (O/N/D Basford), Charles Ernest birth registered 1893 (J/F/M Basford) and Bernard Alan (k/a Alan) b. 1897 O/N/D Basford). With the exception of Alec, all the registrations of birth give the mother's maiden name (Stevens). William and Mary have not yet been traced on the 1881 Census nor has their eldest son, Robert, who may have been born by the time of the census (A/M/J). However, their first child, May (1), was living at 160 Queen's Walk, Meadows, Nottingham, with her maternal grandmother, Harriet AP Stevens, and her children. Her grandmother was married but her husband was not recorded in the home on the night of the census. May (11) was still living with her grandmother, now widowed, in 1891 although they had moved to 211 Wilford Road, Nottingham. Also in the household were May's sister, Elsie (6) and two of Harriett Stevens' great-nieces, Emma Ferrier (18) and Annie Litchfield (19), who were both pupil teachers. Arthur (32), a commercial traveller, and Mary (32) were living at 215 Wilford Road, in 1891, with their five sons Robert (10), Tom (8), Henry (4), George (2) and Alec (5 months). By 1901 the family home was at 29 Healey Street, Nottingham. On the night of the census Mary (42) was in the house with six of her seven sons: Tom (18) a grocer's assistant, Henry (14) a butcher's boy, George (12), Alec (10), Charles (8) and the youngest child Bernard (3). May (21), a church school teacher, Robert (20) a cigar box manufacturer's clerk and Elsie (15) a tailoress, were living with their grandmother, Harriet Stevens, at 211 Wilford Road. Their father, Arthur, has not yet been traced on the census. By 1911 Mary had moved to 30 Mayfield Grove, Meadows, where she was living with her five sons Henry (24) a butcher, George (22) and Alec (20) who were both bobbin and carriage hands, Charles (18) a tool fitter, and Bernard (13) who was still at school. May (31), a school teacher, Robert (30) an engineer/motor dealer, and Elsie (25) an assistant at a chemist (manufacturer) were still living with their grandmother on Wilford Road. Tom (28) had married in 1908 and was living with his wife, Ellen (29) at 30 Mayfield Road. Arthur has not yet been traced on the census. Alec's brother, Bernard Alan, served in the 1st Battalion Royal Fusiliers (7719 Lance Corporal) and was killed in action on 13 November 1916 (Theipval Memorial). (See record on this ROH). By the time of Bernard's death in 1916 the family home was at 28 Mayfield Grove, Meadows. It is possible that his father Arthur served in the war as he was named as Bernard's legatee and was described on the record as 'Private Arthur Swift'. His father Arthur died at 28 Wilford Grove on 26 March 1924. His mother Mary Catherine was still living at the same address in 1939 when the England & Wales Register was compiled; she was described as 'incapacitated'. Also in the household was her daughter Elsie, a retired warehouse clerk. Mary died at home on 7 February 1940. Or Alec's surviving siblings: May Harriet has not yet been traced after 1911. Robert William Harold married Harriet Minnie Cowen at the Unitarian Chapel, High Pavement, Nottingham, on 6 March 1915 and they had at least one child, Harriet Mary (b. 13 March 1916). He enlisted in the Army Service Corps (Motor Transport) in about 1915 giving his trade as motor engineer; he and Harriet were living at 8 Queen's Road, Beeston, Nottingham. He served at home from 29 September 1915 but later in France. He was discharged as no longer physically fit for war service, probably in 1917. In 1939 Robert and Harriet (b. 27 April 1893) were living at 124 Foxhall Road, Nottingham; he was a general manager for a cigar box manufacturer. Robert died on 24 August 1944. Tom married Ellen Hempstock in 1908 and in 1911 they were living at 30 Mayfield Grove, Meadows. It is likely that he served in the Army Service Corps (118191 Private) as there is a medal roll record for a Tom Stevens Swift. He died on 1 August 1925. Elsie Lisse M was living with her widowed mother at 28 Wilford Grove in 1939. She did not marry and died in 1960 (J/F/M Basford). Henry Arthur also served in the war, initially in the Army Service Corps then in the Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry (47014 Sergeant). He served in France from 2 August 1915. He died at 28 Wilford Grove on 27 April 1919. The notice of his death gave the cause of death as 'gas poisoning' suggested that he had been gassed while on active service. (See record on this ROH) George Stanley (Stanley) died at 28 Wilford Grove on 23 September 1928. It is likely that he also served in the war. Charles Ernest has not yet been traced after 1918 when he was included on a form, completed by his mother, of his late brother Alec's surviving blood relatives. The address is illegible apart from 'South Shore'.
He was a carriage bobbin hand in 1911.

He embarked Southampton for France on 16th August 1916 disembarking the following day at Le Havre. He joined his battalion on 6th September 1916. He fractured his left ankle on 19th November 1916 and was admitted initially to a field hospital then medically evacuated to England in the Hospital Ship St Dennys on 21st November 1916. He was treated in hospital from 22nd November until 6th December 1916. Alec remained in England, probably at Sheerness, on light duties until returning to France on 8th September 1917. He was killed in action on 7 February 1918 and was buried in Metz-en-Couture Cemetery Extension (Grave Reference: II G 8).

Facing Staffing Shortage, Wisconsin Raises Prison Workers' Wages
by Tribune News Service | May 9, 2016 AT 11:00 AM
By Patrick Marley and Jason Stein
Seeking to beat back a chronic staffing shortage, the head of the state prison system announced a $10 million-a-year plan Thursday to raise wages by 80 cents an hour for thousands of workers, with some of them temporarily receiving more than that.
Department of Corrections officials say they are using existing funds to pay their workers more and don't need approval from lawmakers. They have not spelled out where they would find the savings allowing them to grant the raises.
Feds Sue Michigan Prisons for Making Women Work an Unhealthy Amount Better Pay for Prison Guards Leads to Less Turnover in South Dakota America's Jails Have an HR Problem CIOs Fear Mass Exodus of Government IT Workers
The wage increase comes at a time when prison workers are routinely being forced to work double shifts because of staff shortages.
Among the facilities facing staff shortages are Lincoln Hills School for Boys and Copper Lake School for Girls, juvenile facilities that share a campus 30 miles north of Wausau. Those sites are the subject of a yearlong investigation into allegations of prisoner abuse, child neglect, excessive use of pepper spray and other potential crimes.
The pay increase applies to officers, sergeants and the front-line workers at the juvenile prisons, known as youth counselors and advanced youth counselors.
"These changes will increase DOC's ability to recruit and retain qualified employees to fill critically important positions at the Department of Corrections," Corrections Secretary Jon Litscher said in a statement.
The move is one of Litscher's first major acts since taking the reins of the department in February. Litscher previously served as corrections secretary under Republican Govs. Tommy Thompson and Scott McCallum.
Union officials welcomed the raise but said it should be considered only a first step toward fixing the staffing shortage after state workers saw their take-home pay cut in 2011 when they were required to pay more for their benefits.
"It's long overdue. It starts the climb back for the last five years of takebacks," said Troy Bauch, a representative with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 32.
Starting June 26, the employees will receive an increase of 80 cents an hour.
In addition, those working at facilities with particularly significant staff shortages will receive an additional 50 cents an hour from May 29 until early January. With the two raises, they'll be getting an extra $1.30 an hour for seven months.
The bonus raise applies to employees at Lincoln Hills, Copper Lake, Waupun Correctional Institution, Green Bay Correctional Institution and Columbia Correctional Institution.
Additionally, some employees will receive merit bonuses between now and the end of June, Litscher said.
The across-the-board increase will bring the starting wage for correctional officers and youth counselors to $16 an hour. Sergeants and advanced youth counselors will receive $16.76 when they start the job.
State worker exodus
The state's difficulty in recruiting and retaining prison workers is part of a larger workforce problem for GOP Gov. Scott Walker's administration, which lost nearly one in eight employees across state government last year to factors such as retirement and competing employers.
In all, 3,600 workers outside the University of Wisconsin System moved on from their state jobs in 2015, which was 23% more than in 2014 and nearly twice as many as in 2010.
About 680 public safety workers left in 2015 for other jobs or retirement, or about 12.3% of the nearly 5,500 workers in that area.
In 2011, Walker signed the law known as Act 10, repealing most union bargaining for most public workers and increasing state workers' benefit contributions by an amount equal to about 8.5% of their take-home pay. That year, retirements jumped as employees sought to avoid fundamental changes to their retirement benefits, which didn't end up materializing.
But with the recession still deep, relatively few employees resigned to take other jobs. That has changed as the economy has improved in subsequent years and private-sector hiring has picked up.
The state offered across-the-board raises of 1% in 2014 and 2015, along with some merit increases for select employees, but no increases in the current two-year budget.
One consequence of higher employee turnover is more vacant jobs, which are challenging in prisons that have to be staffed at all times.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported last month that almost one in five jobs stand open at Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake. That adds up to nearly 30 openings there.
Twenty-eight youth counselor and advanced youth counselor jobs remain unfilled out of the 146 front-line positions at Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake.
While more workers are hired, the state has had to pay for hotel, meal and travel costs for officers who are temporarily shifted from other Wisconsin prisons.

Bernie Tretta
Meet the Athletes with Disabilities Field
The Athletes with Disabilities Program at the Chevron Houston Marathon was started in 2014. In Jan 2015, 10 handcycle athletes participated in the marathon with 3 guides and 20 volunteers along the way. In the last 2 years the field has grown to also include wheelchair duo teams, mobility impaired runners and blind/visually impaired runners. Between the 3 races this weekend, there will be a total of 225 athletes, guides and volunteers!
On our panel there are 4 athlete speakers representing our 4 major categories of racers: Jeff Chaffin representing the handcyclists & wheelchair racers, Hailey Danz representing the Mobility Impaired runners, Lisa Thompson representing the blind/visually impaired runners and Michelle Jones with her son Charlie representing the Wheelchair Duo teams.
Jeff Chaffin
Jeff Chaffin is an Marine combat veteran who served in Iraq. He lost his leg in an accident in 2008. While he cannot easily wear a prosthesis, with the help of Achilles International Houston he discovered handcycling to stay active. He has completed 14 marathons and will be competing in his 3rd Chevron Houston Marathon on Sunday.
Michelle Jones and son Charlie Jones
Michelle Jones and Captain Charlie Jones are the founders of the Wings of Texas chapter of myTeam Triumph International. In 2014, Michelle and her husband started running to get healthier. Since then, that exercise plan has blossomed into a full-fledged mission: to share the joy of crossing the finish line with persons of all abilities. Through their efforts, Captains (persons with disabilities) from the Coastal Bend crossed the finish line 231 times in 2016.
Hailey Danz
Hailey Danz is an elite sprint distance triathlete, cancer survivor, and member of Team USA. In September 2016, she won the silver medal in the inaugural triathlon at the Paralympic Games in Rio. In addition to her success in triathlon, she holds World Records in the 400-meter and the marathon (above-knee amputee classification). She will be running her third marathon on Sunday, where she hopes to break her own record.
Lisa Thompson is a local Houstonian that has been tearing up the running scene for 8 years now. She is visually impaired and has won the VI division at the Houston Marathon and at the Boston Marathon twice. In 2014, she won the female VI division of the Marathon National Championships at the California International Marathon. She is a former president of the Bayou City Road Runners, a local running club, and Sunday will be running her 7th Houston Marathon.
Bernie Tretta has managed the Athletes with Disabilities program at the Houston Marathon since its inception in 2014. Through this program over 350 runners, guides and volunteers have participated in the race festivities. Bernie is also the director of the Houston chapter of Achilles International, an international non-profit that aims to keep disabled people active. She launched the chapter in 2013 which has helped disabled athletes run and wheel thousands of miles in the last 4 years. She will be running her 12th Houston Marathon on Sunday.
Stacy Holden
Sharing stories of runners from Memorial Park and how the course intersects with the Park
Stacy is the author of the newly released coffee table book titled People of Memorial Park: Stories From Houston's Favorite Trail. She is a native Houstonian, and began running at seven years old, only to be diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and celiac disease three years later.
Through these health hardships, her exercise habits never faltered, and in 1988, she and her parents began training at Memorial Park for the 1989 Houston Marathon. All the dedication and hard work came to fruition when Stacy completed her first marathon at twelve years old in a time of 4 hours, 18 minutes, 49 seconds.
Stacy went on to run competitively throughout high school and college and has been involved in the Houston running community for the last 30 years. Today, she is married with two daughters and has completed 9 Houston Marathons and 3 Houston Half Marathons.
Although she was excited to finish her inaugural Marathon in 1989, more importantly, those long runs on the trail at Memorial Park sparked a new love for the Park and its people. Stacy recently started thinking about all of the people at Memorial Park who she recognized, but did not know their names, much less their stories. Her desire to learn more inspired her to track them down and write a book.

Plaintiff's Claim Struck For Failure to Prove Liability of Unidentified Driver
Litigation	Nov 25, 2011
On November 9, 2011, the Honourable Mr. Justice Williams of the British Columbia Supreme Court delivered his judgment in PAGUIO V. FRASER, 2011 BCSC 1519.
The trial was a result of an action filed by Cesar Paguio, to establish liability for the serious head injury he suffered in an auto accident on February 28, 2010. At the time of the accident, Mr. Paguio was driving his motor scooter in the right hand lane along Knight Street, in Richmond. He suddenly crossed into the left lane occupied by a Volkswagen, operated by Mr. Fraser, striking Fraser's vehicle in the area of the right front wheel well and tire.
Mr. Paguio originally filed suit naming the owner and driver of the Volkswagen as defendants but discontinued the proceedings. He then claimed that an unknown driver of an unidentified vehicle was the cause of the accident, and asked the court to find the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia liable. According to Mr. Paguio, an unidentified vehicle entered the lane he was traveling in from the right, and forced him into the lane occupied by the Fraser's Volkswagen, causing a collision.
Mr. Justice Williams heard testimony from four witnesses who were at the scene, including Mr. Paguio and Mr. Fraser. The other two witnesses were traveling in the same direction, behind the Paguio and Fraser vehicles. They offered conflicting views on what lanes the scooter and Volkswagen were in, and whether there was, in fact, a third vehicle involved in the accident.
For his claim to succeed, Mr. Paguio would have to prove that an unidentified vehicle existed and that it caused the collision. After examining the facts presented, and weighing the inconsistencies in testimony, Mr. Justice Williams found that the burden of proof had not been satisfied by Mr. Paguio's circumstantial evidence, and his claim was dismissed.

What Is Happening in Iran?—Part 5
The gospel and leader-training windows are open widest now —before political and economic changes occur. Photo: Carlos Castilla
This post is part 5 of a six-part series on the current state of Iran and its church. To read the entire series now, click here. If you missed earlier posts, you can read them here: part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4.
In Iran, Islam has experienced the greatest defeat in its history. According to Operation World, Iran currently has the fastest growing evangelical population across the globe. Iran's desperate situation has created a perfect storm for the cause of Christ. Millions have rejected Islam and are open to the message of the gospel. There are now over 3 million believers in Iran.
What will happen when the regime changes in Iran?
Spiritual hunger will suddenly die down. Iranians will suddenly have another hope besides Christ. Non-believers will be more interested in and focused on bringing a democracy to Iran than considering the claims of Christ.
Iranians will have freedom to assemble and start churches. The underground believers will gather into large communities and start many churches. Many evangelists will visit Iran to conduct stadium-size gatherings. Many denominations will send their workers to start new denominational churches. Many Iranian believers will start their own independent churches as well. We must bear in mind, however, that the 3 million believers in Iran are mostly new believers. Many will be distracted by the political events. Many will be deceived by cults and will join cultish churches. Many will start weak churches because they do not have any biblical training. So the visible church will suddenly grow—but it will be weak.
Opportunities for expansion of the gospel in Iran will grow, but so will the dangers that can undercut the gospel's power. The Church at large has a responsibility at this historic time to be wise concerning Iran and to redeem the time that God has given us.
History is in the making in Iran. As the 40th year of the anniversary of the Islamic revolution approaches, we are seeing the end of this regime. Much is happening in Iran today politically, socially, and spiritually. I believe we will see a major change in Iran soon and it will be in weeks, months, but not years.
Much is happening these days in Iran.
There is much news daily about Iran. Following the news carefully and being constantly and directly in touch with the people of Iran has given me a perspective that might be helpful to those who want to understand what is going on. So each day for the next week, I will provide a short commentary on What is happening in Iran.
Next up: What can the worldwide Church do to support its Persian brothers and sisters?

How does protein fit in your holiday diet or New Year's resolutions?
Amy Patterson Neubert
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — While some diets load up on protein and other diets dictate protein sources, it can be hard to know what to consume while managing weight or during weight loss.
A new study by Purdue University nutrition scientists shows that eating more protein daily than what is recommended may benefit only a few — those who are actively losing weight by cutting calories or those strength training to build more lean muscle mass. This study also affirms that the recommended dietary allowance, of 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day — or 0.36 grams per pound — is adequate for most people. For example, an adult who weighs 150 pounds should eat 54 grams of protein a day, which could be three ounces of lean meat, three cups of dairy and one ounce of seeds or nuts within a day.
"But here is the hard part for consumers: These findings support that most adults who are consuming adequate amounts of protein may only benefit from moderately higher protein intake when they are purposefully trying to change their body composition such as when dieting or strength training. The results are not meant to encourage everyone to increase their protein intake in general," said Wayne Campbell, a professor of nutrition science, whose research integrates exercise physiology, geriatrics and nutrition, especially protein.
The study was led by Joshua L. Hudson, Purdue postdoctoral research associate, and it is published in Advances in Nutrition.
"This research uniquely assesses whether adults benefit from consuming more protein than the current recommended dietary allowance," Hudson said. "This research was not designed to assess whether or not adults would benefit from consuming more protein than they usually consume. This distinction is important because the recommended dietary allowance is the standard against which to assess nutrition adequacy; however, most adults consume more protein than what is recommended."
When people are in a neutral metabolic state — not losing weight or lifting weights — eating more protein does not influence their body composition any differently, including lean mass, which is consistent with the current recommended dietary allowances being adequate for generally healthy sedentary weight-stable people. This does not include adults with Type 2 diabetes.
"And that is important because there is so much encouragement, advertising and marketing for everyone to eat higher protein diets, and this research supports that, yes, under certain conditions, including strength training and weight loss, moderately more protein may be helpful, but that doesn't mean more is needed for everybody at all times," Hudson said.
More than 1,500 nutrition articles were screened across journal databases to identify 18 studies with 22 intervention groups and 981 participants that addressed this topic. The studies were selected based on specific factors including inclusion of healthy adults, protein intake, weight loss and physical activity. The sources of protein evaluated included lean and minimally processed meats, dairy, eggs, nuts, seeds and legumes.
"This research is clinically more important for women and especially older women who are known to typically consume lower amounts of protein and should be maintaining a healthy bodyweight and regularly strength training," Campbell said.
What do these findings mean for someone watching their weight during the holidays or planning New Year's resolutions?
"If you are going to start losing weight, don't cut back across all foods you usually consume, because you'll inadvertently cut back protein. Instead, work to maintain, or even moderately increase, protein-rich foods. Then, cut back on the carbs and saturated fat-containing foods," said Campbell, who studies how sources and amounts of protein — which is critical to building muscle mass — may be a part of adopting healthy eating patterns, including the Mediterranean diet and DASH diet.
These findings are in general, and more evaluation is needed to determine effects on age and gender. This research does not apply to elite athletes or people who lost weight with bariatric surgery, nor does it relate to protein supplements.
No external funding was used for this study. Campbell's lab continues to study the influences of healthy eating patterns and diets with different amounts and sources of protein on changes in body composition and clinical health risk factors.

Hicks is being recognized for his visionary leadership and innovation in the use and development of information systems. In 2016, he founded Toyota's data analytics startup, Toyota Connected North America, and he's also playing a key role in leading Toyota's global transformation to become a mobility company, building out innovative technology and creating new business opportunities in everything from connectivity to autonomous driving. Additionally, he has a global role leading information security management for Toyota Motor Corporation (Japan) and serves as field general manager for its in-house Connected Company.
"Zack is the first chief digital officer at Toyota Motor North America -- a very unique strategic position," says AIS President T.P. Liang. "He has brought new technologies, such as IOT, analytics and security, to enhance the competitiveness of Toyota. His contributions to digital transformation and innovation -- like connected vehicles, for example -- show him to be an excellent role model for strategic information officers, and demonstrate that the role of IT is critical to the transformation of manufacturing and other traditional industries."
The AIS Leadership Excellence Award was created in 2015 to recognize the achievements of industry leaders. Recipients are selected by a committee consisting of a chairperson, the AIS executive director, the ICIS conference chair, and the current, immediate past, and elected presidents of AIS. As this year's winner, Hicks will deliver the keynote address at the ICIS in San Francisco, CA, where the theme will be "Bridging the Internet of People, Data and Things."
Since joining Toyota in 1996, Hicks has championed a global telematics ecosystem, facilitating the implementation of cloud-based collaboration tools for Toyota employees. He also led the development of an award-winning social media analytics platform.
Today, as Toyota's first chief digital officer, Hicks leads the firm's newly created Digital Transformation and Mobility unit, advancing shared mobility, connectivity services, over-the-air upgrades and future business opportunities. This new role will define and accelerate Toyota's mobility efforts, including vehicle connectivity, electrification and autonomous driving technologies.
As founder, CEO and president of Toyota Connected North America, Hicks also leads the company's connected car ecosystem, where he is driving transformational change through cutting-edge technology, data and connectivity. This fast-growing startup serves as Toyota's data science hub, connecting vehicles, customers and businesses through machine learning and artificial intelligence. Additionally, as chairman of Toyota Connected Europe, Hicks oversees the London-based startup.
"A lot of what Zack has done at Toyota is about getting people working together to innovate and bring technology to market," says AIS President-Elect Alan Dennis. "What's striking beyond the technology is his understanding of that market, the existing products and the business value that the new technology adds."
Hicks is a member of Toyota's North American Executive Committee, a board member of The Toyota Foundation and Toyota Insurance Management, as well as the Toyota Diversity Board, Toyota PAC Board, and the chair of TMNA's Executive Steering Committee. Hicks was also named one of Dallas Business Journal's "Most Admired CEOs of 2018." In 2016, he received the "Innovator of Year" award from D-CEO magazine, and he and TMNA are also multiple recipients of the CIO 100 award.
A Pepperdine University graduate with an MBA from the University of California at Irvine, Hicks was recently appointed to the board of directors of Signet Jewelers. He also is an active member of the CIO Strategy Exchange and the Corporate Executive Board for Chief Information Officers.
The Association for Information Systems, founded in 1994, is a professional organization that serves as the premier global organization for academics, students and professionals specializing in Information Systems.

KCFiltration Blog : Flu Fighters: Can Air Filters Keep Germs at Bay?
The recent flu season was the worst in nearly a decade. Families, businesses, schools — just about everyone — felt the impact of either getting sick or trying to avoid it. While it's always best to heed the specific advice of healthcare professionals during cold and flu season, there's one way to help keep germs like the influenza virus from spreading as readily throughout buildings: a robust air filtration system to improve indoor air quality (IAQ).
A filter's Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) provides important information about its efficiency in removing dangerous submicron particles from the air. Evaluation of the full ASHRAE 52.2 test report (specifically the Fractional Particle Size vs. Particle Diameter Curve) will provide efficiency data over three particle size ranges: E1 (very fine particles in the 0.3 to 1.0 micron range), E2 (fine particles in the 1.0 to 3.0 micron range), and E2 (coarse particles in the 3.0 to 10.0 micron range). High E1 and E2 efficiencies are critical for providing for good IAQ and helping building occupants avoid illness due to poor IAQ.
Some pleated filters today (especially at commonly used MERV 8) have very low E1 and E2 efficiencies. In fact, under the ASHRAE 52.2 Standard, there was no minimum requirement for E1 particulate capture below a MERV 14 and no minimum requirement for E2 particle capture below a MERV 9 until recently. It is therefore possible to have a MERV 8 filter with better E1 particle capture than a MERV 11 filter, depending on the filter media used.
For filters with high initial and high sustained filtration efficiency over their lifecycle, specify filter media that has a good balance of mechanical efficiency and electret efficiency (via an electrostatic charge).
Infectious particles can stay airborne for hours and be transported over long distances. A robust air filtration system may help reduce the spread of infectious particles like the influenza virus. In fact, using air filters that capture particles 2.5 microns or smaller can lead to substantial health benefits.
The filter supply chain would be well-served to better understand the IAQ and health benefits of air filtration to help improve the health of building occupants during cold and flu season.

Q: Load Two Dimensional Array from LINQ Query? I'm using VB.Net and have the following LINQ Query…
Dim ACFTTail5 = (From tailcounts In db.TailCounts _
                 Where tailcounts.Model = "UH-60A" _
                 Group tailcounts By _
                 tailcounts.Tail, tailcounts.Model _
                 Into g = Group Order By Tail _
                 Select Tail, rdf = CStr(g.Sum(Function(p) _ p.TailCount))).ToArray

I'm trying to get a two dimensional array like below..
    ACFTTail5 (0)(0) "Tail-a"
    ACFTTail5 (0)(1) "RDF-a"
    ACFTTail5 (1)(0) "Tail-b"
    ACFTTail5 (1)(1) "RDF-b"
    ACFTTail5 (2)(0) "Tail-c"
    ACFTTail5 (2)(1) "RDF-c"

ETC..
I have tried…
    Dim ACFTTail5(,) As String

    ACFTTail5 = (From tailcounts In db.TailCounts _
                 Where tailcounts.Model = "UH-60A" _
                 Group tailcounts By _
                 tailcounts.Tail, tailcounts.Model _
                 Into g = Group Order By Tail _
                 Select Tail, rdf = CStr(g.Sum(Function(p) p.TailCount)))

But get the following error…
"Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.Linq.DataQuery1[VB$AnonymousType_42[System.String,System.String]]' to type 'System.String[,]'."
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated…
Thanks

A: If you could be less concerned with forcing it into a 2d array, you could just allow the compiler to assign the anonymous IQueryable type and use that for iteration:
Dim ACFTTail5 = (From tailcounts In db.TailCounts _
             Where tailcounts.Model = "UH-60A" _
             Group tailcounts By _
             tailcounts.Tail, tailcounts.Model _
             Into g = Group Order By Tail _
             Select Tail, rdf = CStr(g.Sum(Function(p) p.TailCount)))

You could then just use the For each iterator to cycle through whatever you needed.
Edit:
I haven't tested this little piece by any stretch, but you should be able to use a List
Dim ACFTTail5 as List(Of String())

ACFTTail5 = new List(Of String())(From tailcounts In db.TailCounts _
             Where tailcounts.Model = "UH-60A" _
             Group tailcounts By _
             tailcounts.Tail, tailcounts.Model _
             Into g = Group Order By Tail _
             Select new String() { Tail, rdf = CStr(g.Sum(Function(p) p.TailCount)) })

Dim ACFTTail5_2d_Array as String(,) = ACFTTail5.ToArray()

The key that I'm using here is to select it directly into a new class (in this case a string array), and keep it in a List specifically for string arrays. Then you should be able to send that to a string array of string arrays.

T In The Park 2014: Festival forecast a weekend of wet and unsettled weather
Virtual Festivals by Chris SwindellsWednesday 9 Jul 2014 2:58 pm
What should you be packing for T In The Park this weekend? {Picture: Press Association)
T In The Park-ers might not be able to look forward to a repeat of last year's scorcher, but the festival should at least avoid a mudbath year.
The three main stage headliners, Biffy Clyro, Calvin Harris and Arctic Monkeys can expect typically unpredictable Scottish weather this weekend.
The festival, which was overwhelmed by heavy rain and stormy weather in 2012, was blessed with balmy summer sun last July but sadly this year won't be quite so fortunate.
Those festival-goers arriving tomorrow (July 10) can expect a warm and dry start to the long weekend of revelry and live entertainment at Scotland's largest music festival.
Temperatures will peak at 19°C so make the most of what could be the best weather of the weekend and get ready for a day of tent pitching and entertainment under the Cabaret Tent, where the best burlesque, circus and comedy lives.

Friday will be colder and with a remote chance of rainfall early in the morning. Imagine Dragons shouldn't have any weather Demons to battle and if a brief shower hits then maybe it's time to check out homegrown talent Chvrches under the cover of the King Tut's Tent.
Pharrell Williams might not be Happy with the forecast for Saturday. (Picture: AP)
Saturday (July 12) will welcome a day of rain-soaked performers taking to the stage at the Balado site, with short yet stormy showers forecast to hit throughout the afternoon and staying around long into the evening.
Festival-goers should get their wellies on and battle the conditions for a string of hugely-anticipated live sets on the main stage from Rudimental, Pharrell Williams, Paolo Nutini and then Scottish headliner Calvin Harris.
Do I Wanna Know what the weather will do on Sunday? (Picture: Getty Images)
Finally, after a night of rainfall, the closing day of T In The Park 2014 is forecast some of the worst weather of the weekend. Changeable conditions will see some heavy rain showers during the morning and early afternoon on Sunday (July 13) as temperatures hover in the high teens (Celsius) before Sheffield's finest rock export Arctic Monkeys make their third headline appearance at T In The Park, closing the festival for 2014.
Thankfully by this time the rain should have passed and the crowds can enjoy one final Balado firework spectacular and kilted-up singalong to Flower Of Scotland without need for the rain ponchos.
Packing down to leave on Monday morning? You might want to keep the rain jacket out of the bag as light showers are forecast to strike one final time.
T In The Park 2014 takes place at Balado airfield, Kinross-shire, Scotland from 11 – 13 July. For more information visit the official website.
