Already legendary wine tasting, on the initiative of the English wine dealer and experts in French wine Steven Spurrier (* 1941) took place in Paris on May 24, 1976. The event, also known as the "Judgment of Paris" (Paris Wine Jury), is memorable for several reasons. Firstly, no expert had expected this surprising result, secondly, there were worldwide discussions and significant effects in the international wine world, and thirdly, because the competition took four stages over a period of thirty years. The competition has been repeated three times with the original wines; the third and fourth only with the red wines. Finally, there was also a book about it, in 2006 the US journalist George M. Taber published the 350-page work "Judgment of Paris: California vs. France and the Historic 1976 Paris Tasting That Revolutionized Wine ". And last but not least, this material was even filmed in 2008 under the title "Bottle Shock" with the director Randall Miller; however, Spurrier was very dissatisfied with the details, which he believed to be partially fictitious.
Tasting team - 11 judges
It was a competition of wines France and California each with ten red wines and white wines from well-known companies. Spurrier intended to improve the bad image of American wines, but of course still expected the French to win clearly. The eleven jurors were well-known authorities who were beyond any doubt or experienced wine critic, That was Pierre Brejoux (Inspector General AOC), Michel Dovaz (Wine Institute of France), Claude Dubois-Millot (Sales Director Gault Millau ), Patricia Gallagher (Académie du Vin), Odette boat (1923-1982, editor Revue du Vin de France), Raymond Oliver (Le Grand Vefour restaurant), Steven Spurrier, Pierre Tari ( Château Giscours ), Christian Vanneque (Sommelier), Aubert de Villaine ( Domaine de la Romanée-Conti ) and Jean-Claude Vrinat (Restaurant Taillevent).
Spurrier had also invited many reporters from well-known newspapers, but only George M. Taber from US Time Magazine mentioned above was the only one to attend. Hardly anyone doubted the outcome - namely that the French plants would clearly beat the California wines in the sense of "Everyone knows that French wines are principally better than California and always will be".
Surprising result
The surprise was all the greater. When the result was announced, there was disbelief and embarrassed silence. Some jury members wanted the voting slip back so that they could evaluate again. Some also refused to sign the result. The judge Odette boat Spurrier even accused the manipulation and subsequently expressed very negative comments about the competition. In any case, the result shook the wine world and subsequently led to heated discussions. France in particular was shocked and did not want to accept the "shame". The devastating result was first kept silent and only three months later in "Le Figaro" was it reported about the "laughable event that one could not take seriously".
A serious assessment was questioned, or the argument used that French wines would take a long time to mature in order to develop. The fact is, however, that the wine from the United States was taken seriously or at least judged differently. Because it meant a crucial turning point in terms of the reputation that was often derogatory until then Coca-Cola wines designated products. It is far from a coincidence that the joint venture was just three years later Opus One between the wine-growing legends Baron Philippe de Rothschild (1902-1988) and Robert Mondavi (1913-2008) was started.
First competition - 1976 in Paris
The competition took place according to the rules of one Half blind tasting, The judges knew what the wines were, but not what bottle or glass they were in. The evaluation was carried out according to the 20-point system common in Europe. All white wines were pure Chardonnays, The in Bordeaux style vinified red wines were (are) from Cabernet Sauvignon dominated. During the tasting, the judges were absolutely certain that the smell of the Old World and the New World could already be distinguished, which turned out to be wrong. Because the "clearly identified as Californian" Chardonnay with "lack of aroma" turned out to be Burgundian Bâtard-Montrachet. Red wines had similar misidentifications with supposedly outstanding French wines, which then turned out to be Californian. In the case of white wine, all eleven judges gave either Chateau Montelena or Chalone Vineyard (both California) the highest number of points. The result (the average points for the red wines in brackets):
The white wines (Chardonnay) - 6 Californians, 4 French
1st CAL: Chateau Montelena 1973 - Napa Valley
2. FRA: Domaine Roulot - Meursault Charmes 1973 - Côte de Beaune
3rd CAL: Chalone Vineyard 1974 - Chalone / Monterey County
4th CAL: Spring Mountain Vineyard 1973 - Napa Valley
5. FRA: Joseph Drouhin - Clos des Mouches 1973 - Côte de Beaune
6th CAL: Freemark Abbey Winery 1972 - Napa Valley
7. FRA: Ramonet-Prudhon - Bâtard-Montrachet 1973 - Côte de Beaune
8. FRA: Domaine Leflaive - Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1972 - Cote de Beaune
9th KAL: Veedercrest Vineyards 1972 - Santa Cruz County (winery no longer exists)
10th CAL: David Bruce Winery 1973 - Santa Cruz Mountains
Winemaker Mike, responsible for the Chateau Montelena winery Grgich achieved a high level of awareness overnight. He soon founded in 1977 in Napa Valley his own winery.
The red wines (Cabernet Sauvignon dominates) - 6 Californians, 4 French
1st (1) CAL: Stag's Leap Wine Cellars 1973 - Napa Valley (14.14)
2. (3) FRA: Château Mouton-Rothschild 1970 - Pauillac / Médoc (14.09)
3. (2) FRA: Château Montrose 1970 - St. Estèphe / Médoc (13.64)
4. (4) FRA: Château Haut-Brion 1970 - Pessac-Léognan / Graves (13.23)
5th (5) CAL: Ridge Vineyards "Monte Bello" 1971 - Santa Clara Valley (12.14)
6. (7) FRA: Château Léoville-Las-Cases 1971 - Saint-Julien / Médoc (11.18)
7th (6) CAL: Martha's Vineyard (Heitz) 1970 - Napa Valley (10.36)
8th (10) CAL: Clos Du Val Winery 1972 - Napa Valley (10.14)
9th (9) CAL: Mayacamas Vineyards 1971 - Napa Valley (9.77)
10. (8) CAL: Freemark Abbey Winery 1967 - Napa Valley (9.64)
Spurrier had been pragmatic in calculating the final numbers per wine. He simply added the individual numbers and divided the sums by nine (his own rating and that of Patricia Gallagher were not taken into account). The two economists Orley Ashenfelter and Richard E. Quandt (both professors at Princeton University in New Jersey) analyzed the result again. Among other things, these also took into account the intervals between the ratings and thus came to a "statistically better and more valid" result. They calculated three groups, with the wines within the groups not being statistically distinguishable and to be regarded as equivalent, so to speak: 1 and 2, 3 to 9, and 10. The result for the red wines is given in parentheses above. This did not result in any significant changes, but at least the "French honor" is somewhat improved, as Château Montrose is now also at the top. In four cases the difference is only one place, in four cases the place number is even identical.
Another very important aspect to consider when comparing France (Europe) and California. California is usually balanced climate before, so that the vines during the growth cycle exposed to very similar conditions every year. Assuming the same vinification, the quality of the wines is almost the same in each year. In contrast, there are relatively large fluctuations in Europe, especially in the colder wine-growing regions such as France (also Germany and Austria), so that a "good vintage "Plays a much stronger role.
One could now blame bad vintages for the "bad result" of French wines. However, it should be noted that three of the four red wines came from 1970 and one from 1971. In 1970, the "Conseil Interprofessionel du Vin de Bordeaux" ranked among the "best four years of the past 45 years" and 1971 was described as "very good". In addition, this was even investigated for the appellations from which the red wines come: Pessac-Léognan. Pauillac. Saint-Estèphe and Saint-Julien, Here too, similar statements were made over the two years. A "bad year" was therefore not an argument.
Second competition - 1978 in San Francisco
In January 1978, a second competition took place in San Francisco, 20 months after the Paris tasting. Above all, the aim was to test the critics' argument that French wines would develop better than Californian ones when they matured. Spurrier flew in from Paris to take part in the evaluation that took place in the Vintners Club. The tasting teams consisted of 99 and 98 professional judges. There were some changes in the ranking, but again the California victory could not be shaken. In terms of white and red wines, three Californian wines were at the top - a clear result for California (in brackets the place from the first competition in 1976):
Compared to the first competition, the wines from Domaine Roulot, Joseph Drouhin and Ramonet-Prudhon achieved a poorer result:
1st (3) CAL: Chalone Vineyard 1974 - Chalone / Monterey County
2nd (1) CAL: Chateau Montelena 1973 - Napa Valley
3rd (4) CAL: Spring Mountain Vineyard 1973 - Napa Valley
4. (8) FRA: Domaine Leflaive - Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1972 - Cote de Beaune
Compared to the first competition, the wines from Château Montrose, Château Haut-Brion and Château Leoville Las Cases achieved a poorer result:
1st (1) CAL: Stag's Leap Wine Cellars 1973 - Napa Valley
2nd (7) CAL: Martha's Vineyard (Heitz) 1970 - Napa Valley
3rd (5) CAL: Ridge Vineyards "Monte Bello" 1971 - Santa Clara Valley
4. (2) FRA: Château Mouton-Rothschild 1970 - Pauillac / Médoc
Third competition - 1986 in New York
To mark the 10th anniversary, two competitions were held in 1986 with different tasting teams. Since one had to rightly assume that the white wines had already peaked, only the red wines were tasted. One competition was from the magazine Wine Spectator carried out in New York, with five Californians in front. The second competition was held by the French Culinary Institute in New York, Steven Spurrier provided support. Here were two Californians at the top (in brackets 1976):
Six judges tasted all ten wines:
1st (7) CAL: Martha's Vineyard (Heitz) 1970 - Napa Valley
2nd (9) CAL: Mayacamas Vineyards 1971 - Napa Valley
4th (1) CAL: Stag's Leap Wine Cellars 1973 - Napa Valley
5th (8) CAL: Clos Du Val Winery 1972 - Napa Valley
6. (3) FRA: Château Montrose 1970 - St. Estèphe / Médoc
8. (6) FRA: Château Léoville-Las-Cases 1971 - Saint-Julien / Médoc
9th (8) CAL: Freemark Abbey Winery 1967 - Napa Valley
10. (4) FRA: Château Haut-Brion 1970 - Pessac-Léognan / Graves
Eight judges tasted nine wines, Freemark Abbey Winery was missing:
1st (8) CAL: Clos Du Val Winery 1972 - Napa Valley
2nd (5) CAL: Ridge Vineyards "Monte Bello" 1971 - Santa Clara Valley
7th (7) CAL: Martha's Vineyard (Heitz) 1970 - Napa Valley
8. (9) CAL: Mayacamas Vineyards 1971 - Napa Valley
9. (4) FRA: Château Haut-Brion 1970 - Pessac-Léognan / Graves
Fourth competition - 2006 in Napa and London
Finally, on May 24, 2006, the 30th anniversary of the memorable competition was celebrated. The fourth and final competition was again organized by Steven Spurrier, with two tasting teams active on both sides of the Atlantic in Napa and London. Michael was in London, for example Broadbent, Hugh Johnson and jancis Robinson there. The clear result once again substantiated the previous results. The first five places went to Californian wines, the "Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello" was top of both tasting teams (in brackets the place of the first competition from 1976):
1st (5) CAL: Ridge Vineyards "Monte Bello" 1971 - Santa Clara Valley
2nd (1) CAL: Stag's Leap Wine Cellars 1973 - Napa Valley
3rd (9) CAL: Mayacamas Vineyards 1971 - Napa Valley
10. (10) CAL: Freemark Abbey Winery 1967 - Napa Valley
Resumée
The results confirm relatively clearly that wine ratings are generally not scientifically valid, otherwise the results would have to be identical or at least very similar at best. If the competition were repeated the next day with the same judges and the same wines, the results would not be completely different, but it would most likely result in slightly different ratings or, in part, a different ranking. However, this does not change the fact that professional tastings are judged according to objective criteria and the evaluation differences when tastings are repeated are relatively small. However, this only applies if the tasting is carried out by experienced and professional judges. See also under wine review. wine address and wine Events,

Skopje is the capital of the Republic of Macedonia which is one of the 'Balkan Counties' and is located in South Eastern Europe. Some people still refer to it as ex-Yugoslavia, but it has had its own identity for more than 22 years.
This country has had such a diverse history and has been shaped by the Roman Empire, The Ottomans and has even had a Communist influence too. In the last few decades it has taken on a more European feel with Dutch, Italian, German and Turkish playing more of role in its growth.
Add all of the above factors together and you can see why Macedonia is so unique both culturally and historically and Skopje is the best example of this.
The 'Stone Bridge' which connects the new and old towns of Skopje and runs into the main square is a very famous structure. It is built over the river Vardar and is an essential and well used structure. It is said to be the point where the Muslim and Christian faiths meet, or are separated, depending on your point of view. Over its existence this bridge has seen many historical events, not all with good outcomes for those taking part.
Skopje has statues of King Phillip 11 and Alexander The Great, two of its best known sons. It is also the home of Mother Teresa Museum, she being their best known daughter.
Skopje city centre is very compact, so everything can be seen and visited whilst walking around the capital, such as the; Museums, Winery's, Parks, Churches and Mosques etc.
Whereas the Main Square has a modern and stylist European feel to it, when you walk over the 'Stone Bridge', you feel like you have gone back in time and it is far more traditional. The buildings and small narrow streets of the 'Old Town' are quaint and charming. Then there is 'the market' which has a busy bustling atmosphere with vibrant sounds and smells filling the air.
The city has many bars, restaurants, shops, so really is a modern European City. It has many styles of accommodation, one of the best being the CONTINENTAL HOTEL.
A new and stylish project is CEVAHIR SKY CITY being constructed by ceva construction, which is a 3 story retail and multi-residential development.
Macedonia has 270 sunny days a year, 45 mountain ranges over 2,000 metres high, 50 lakes, and over a 1000 churches. It also has over 5000 archaeological sites throughout its beautiful landscape too, so whether it is your camera, iPad or phone, your picture collection will be vast.
Another city in Macedonia definitely worth a visit is Ohrid, which is a massive tourist destination and is in the south of the country. It is surrendered by beautiful and scenic mountain ranges and even has a number of beaches. It has one of the oldest and deepest lakes in Europe and attracts visitors from around the world. It has a number of modern and traditional bars and restaurants where you can sample the freshly caught fish and locally grown fruit and vegetables.
Even though Skopje is the Capital, the prices for virtually everything remains low compared to many others cities throughout Europe. Beer and coffee approximately EUR 1.25, bottle of wine EUR 3.25 and a main meal in a restaurant for EUR 4.50.
Skopje and Macedonia in general, promotes it's self as being a friendly and safe place to visit as it does not suffer from the crime levels seen in many major European cities. The locals and worldwide travellers have only recently discovered it as a tourist destination, so visit now, before everyone finds out about it!!

Broadway musical "West Side Story" is being adapted for film once again, courtesy of Steven Spielberg this time, with Corey Stoll and Brian d'Arcy James the latest names to sign on.
With Ansel Elgort and Rachel Zegler heading up its cast, the new "West Side Story" ensemble expanded by two, thanks to the commitments of Corey Stoll and Brian D'Arcy James.
Having played Yellowjacket in "Ant-Man", United States Rep. Peter Russo in "House of Cards" season one, and lead character Ephraim Goodweather over four seasons of dark vampire drama "The Strain", Corey Stoll is stepping into the shoes of police Lieutenant Schrank, one of the main supporting characters of "West Side Story".
Alongside Stoll, Brian D'Arcy James is likewise teaming up with Spielberg and his crew. James will be playing police department colleague Sergeant Krupke, likewise concerned with ongoing disputes between the Jets and Sharks gangs.
James comes in from TV series "13 Reasons Why" and the award-winning "Spotlight". Both were involved with moon landings biopic "First Man" while James was a regular cast member in Spielberg-produced musical TV series "Smash".
As well as Ansel Elgort ("Baby Driver", "The Fault in Our Stars") and newcomer Rachel Zegler, those already on board for "West Side Story" include fellow new faces Josh Andrés Rivera, David Alvarez, Ariana DeBose, and actress from the musical's ten Academy Award-winning 1961 first film adaptation Rita Moreno.

Argentina - and in particular the Mendoza region - is without question one of the most exciting New World wine growing areas today. Predominently known for producing some of the world's very best Malbec's Argentinean pioneers are now experimenting with a wide variety of grape varietals, including (but not limited to) Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. A large amount of truly excellent quality wine is now being produced in this country with prices yet to match the standards on offer.


Delays in the publication of the RHI are "sapping the confidence of potential investors" the Renewable Energy Association (REA) has warned.
In an open letter from REA chief executive Gaynor Hartnell to energy secretary Chris Huhne, Defra secretary Caroline Spelman and energy minister Greg Barker, the REA calls for an end to the "series of delays" which have plagued the publication of the government's RHI proposals.
The letter said: "This is the latest in a series of delays to a publication date that was originally promised for November, then December, January, February and now it is March. This continually moving date is sapping the confidence of potential investors.
A DECC spokesperson told MRW that an announcement was expected "shortly" but would not elaborate further.

Q: How to validate a textview in android? I have a text-view with one background image (e.g. a signature image). When the user clicks on the text-view it retrieves a sign from the database and sets it as a background for the text-view. I want to validate the text-view (i.e. ensure that the text-view background is a signature or database sign).
How can I do that?

A: You can use getBackground() to get the drawable that is currently set as the background.'
However, a better method would be to use setTag("signature") when setting the signature image, and setTag("database") when setting the database image, and then comparing it later using ((String)getTag()).equals(<whatever you want to check>)

PipeKit, a specialist plastic pipe distributor based in Shrewsbury, recently supplied an extensive range of plastic pipework and drainage products to David Austin Roses, as the specialist rose company took on an ambitious extension and water conservation plan at its Shropshire site.
As one of the leading growers and breeders of English Roses, the past two years have seen David Austin Roses design and implement a range of new re-cycling and irrigation initiatives to dramatically increase its water catchment provision. Traditionally, the lifeblood of the nursery had been the local stream. But with the success of the business, since its origins in 1969, the nursery�s annual water consumption requirements were predicted to exceed the stream�s yearly abstraction rates of 53,000 m3, prescribed by the Environmental Agency. Furthermore the nursery also needed to guarantee security of water supply after several years of near drought conditions, with restricted abstraction from the stream for long periods. As a result, the management team at David Austin Roses set about to significantly increase the ability to harvest free water for itself in its pursuit of water conservation and to protect and grow its business.
The nursery team projected that at the end of the current five year expansion plan, the site would require approximately 110,000m3 of water per annum, over double that of the current stream abstraction rates. This mismatch of supply versus demand drove the water harvesting plan forward and led to significant infrastructure changes to the re-cycling, irrigation, drainage and holding of water from rose bed, hard surface and building sources on site.
PipeKit supplied the irrigation pipework used for the new French Drain system constructed under the rose beds to collect all run off water used in the irrigation process. Naylor 225mm twinwall pipe and connectors were supplied by PipeKit and installed for the main header drain, on the end of each container bed, to take the water down the French drain and eventually into the silos and Catchment Reservoir.
The Catchment Reservoir, a brand new water basin built on site as an addition to the main Holding Reservoir located a 1/4 mile away, was built to regulate the additional water gained from the harvesting process and works with the aid of three newly constructed capture silos. Each sunken silo is 18 m3 and includes a pump that pumps the water out into the Catchment Reservoir when a certain level is met. This in turn is pumped from the Catchment Reservoir to the main Holding Reservoir, which was also improved from 27,000m3 holding capacity to 75,000 m3, and distributed from, where required, throughout the year.
Naylor 450mm twinwall pipe and connectors were also supplied by PipeKit to address the additional risks of flooding on site. The Nursery team increased the drainage pipe size across the main loading bay, which serves one of the new large catchment silos, and of which all bed water is directed to, in order to avoid flooding experienced earlier in 2012.
Commenting on why PipeKit was chosen as the main irrigation pipe supplier, Chris Lowe, Nursery Manager said: �We were looking for a local company who could supply the right product at a competitive price and PipeKit fitted the bill. However, during the project I was very impressed with the customer service I received, extending from useful advice to very good delivery, and therefore I have continued to use them based on all of this criteria. It�s a flexible model, where I can go online and/or phone if I am unsure of my requirement or want further information from the PipeKit team�.
David Austin Roses now has a network of approximately 2.5km of new pipework for the re-circulation and capture of water on site and has tripled the capacity of water the business can use. Commenting on the success of the project, Robert Corbett, Licensing Manager at the company said: �We are currently achieving 25% re-circulation from irrigation, 40% from rainfall and 80% from hard standing surfaces and buildings. We currently calculate that, given average rainfall and irrigation patterns, at the expected efficiency, the new system will capture and re-circulate over 65,000 m3 of water per annum, which should more than achieve our shortfall�.
He continues, �for these statistics alone we have to be really pleased with our results, and yet this is actually an under-estimate because it does not account for the increased size of the main Holding Reservoir and the natural capture of rainwater on a bigger surface. Approximately every mm of rain that falls on the surface of the reservoir equates to 20m3, further increasing our water capture per annum and therefore very much exceeding our demands and expectations�.
Following the massive undertaking on site over the past two years, the water conservation efforts have succeeded in reducing the reliance of the David Austin Roses business on the local water reserves and as a result, helping to improve its business. David Austin Roses believes that these improvements will help them achieve a 10% uplift in their business every year, due to the increased amount of products they can now grow and reduction on wastage of crops, due to weather extremes.
Summarising the project, Chris Lowe, Nursery Manager said: �We have been delighted at how quickly we are seeing the results from our labour. It has been a very intensive project with many parts and all of which were essential to take us forward. As a whole, the new infrastructure in place will be responsible for growing our business, at the same time as conserving and preserving the natural resources of the local area�.

Aerpio Pharmaceuticals Announces Review of Strategic Alternatives
CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 21, 2019-- Aerpio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NasdaqCM: ARPO), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing compounds that activate Tie2 to treat ocular disease and diabetic complications, today announced that its Board of Directors has initiated a process to explore and review a range of strategic alternatives focused on maximizing stockholder value from the Company's clinical assets and cash resources, which amounted to $48.2 million as of June 30, 2019. The Board is exploring the potential for an acquisition, company sale, merger, business combination, asset sale, in-license, out-license or other strategic transaction.
In addition, Aerpio has engaged Evercore, Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. and Duane Nash, M.D., J.D., M.B.A. to act as strategic advisors for this process. There can be no assurance that this exploration of strategic alternatives will result in the Company entering or completing any transaction. Aerpio does not intend to make any further disclosures regarding the strategic review process unless and until a specific course of action is approved.
In parallel with this strategic review, the Company also intends to streamline operations in order to preserve its capital and cash resources. Going forward, the management team will be led by Joseph Gardner, Ph.D., the Company's current President with Gina Marek, the company's Vice President of Finance, continuing in her position. Stephen J. Hoffman, M.D., Ph.D., and Michael W. Rogers, the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively, have transitioned from their roles, and Dr. Hoffman has resigned from his position on the Board.
About Aerpio Pharmaceuticals
Aerpio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company focused on advancing first-in-class compounds that activate Tie2 to treat ocular diseases and complications of diabetes. Tie2 is an important regulator of vascular stability, and its down-regulation, through activation of two inhibitors VE-PTP and Ang-2, is found in patients with diabetes and other conditions. The Company's lead compound, AKB-9778, a first-in-class small molecule inhibitor of VE-PTP, is being investigated in an ongoing Phase 1b clinical trial as a topical drop formulation for its therapeutic potential in open-angle glaucoma. In the recently completed phase 2b study (TIME-2b) AKB-9778 demonstrated the ability to lower proteinuria (as measured by decreasing urinary albumin creatine ratio, UACR) by about 20% replicating a finding in the previous phase 2 study. The decrease in proteinuria suggests that AKB-9778 and our other Tie2 activating drug, ARP-1536, may have the potential to improve kidney function in diabetics potentially delaying progression to kidney dialysis. The Company's second asset, ARP-1536 is a humanized monoclonal antibody observed to activate Tie2 receptors in a dose-dependent manner in preclinical models. Aerpio believes ARP-1536 holds potential as a monthly or biweekly systemic therapy to treat diabetic complications, including diabetic nephropathy. The company's third asset is a bispecific antibody that binds both VEGF and VE-PTP which inhibits VEGF activation and activates Tie2. This bispecific antibody has the potential to be an improved product for treating wAMD and DME via intravitreal injection. Finally, the Company has exclusively out-licensed its fourth asset AKB-4924 (now called GB004), a first-in-class small molecule inhibitor of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF). GB004 is being developed by AKB-4924's exclusive licensor, Gossamer Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOSS), in return for an upfront payment of $20 million, future potential development, regulatory, and sales milestones of up to $400 million, and royalties on worldwide net sales. For more information, please visit www.aerpio.com.
This press release contains forward-looking statements. Statements in this press release that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include, among other things, the Company's strategic alternatives review process and the potential transactions that may be identified and explored as a result of that process, the Company's product candidates, including AKB-9778 and ARP-1536, and the therapeutic potential thereof, and the intended benefits from its collaboration with Gossamer Bio, Inc. for GB004. Actual results could differ from those projected in any forward-looking statements due to several risk factors.

Hovedpersonerne

Brees Historie
Bree bliver præsenteret som den perfekte husmor. Alle beundrer og elsker Bree, udover hendes familie, som kender til hendes hemmeligheder og hendes dybt perfektionistiske side. Hun holder en pæn facade, men bag facaden har hun mange ting at kæmpe med. Bl.a. er hun hemmelig alkoholiker, og det bringer hende flere problemer. Hun kommer dog i rehab, og må også indse at hun ikke kan blive ved på den måde, så hun stopper med at drikke.
Brees mand Rex vil skilles fra hende, da han mener, at hun ikke har nogen følelser. Da Rex dør efter at han er blevet dræbt af apotekeren George, møder hun Orson som hun bliver gift med. Orson er i fængsel i en periode for mordforsøg på Mike. Da han kommer tilbage går ægteskabet dårligt. Bree vil skilles, men Orson truer med at kræve rettighederne over hendes firma og ruinere hende, hvis hun forlader ham. Hun bliver forelsket i Karl (Susan's eksmand og far til Julie) som hjælper hende til at få en skilsmisse fra Orson. Samme dag som det bliver officielt at de skal skilles, styrter et fly ned på vejen til deres julefest. Karl dør og Orson bliver lam i sine ben. Bree bliver plaget af dårlig samvittighed og tvinger derfor sig selv til at tage sig af Orson, som ellers er lidt af en udfordring.
Senere viser det sig, at Rex havde en anden søn, som forsøger at charme sig ind i Bree's firma. Da Bree finder ud af, at han er bad news vil hun fyre ham, men han afpresser hende til at opgive sit firma, da han ellers vil afsløre familiens mange hemmeligheder.

Susans Historie
Susan er stadig overvældet over sin skilsmisse med Karl, men hendes datter Julie hjælper hende igennem det og tager moderrollen på sig. Susan bliver forelsket i den nye nabo Mike, men hun møder konkurrence fra naboen Edie Britt om ham. Susan vinder dog hurtigt Mikes hjerte, de bliver gift og Susan bliver gravid med deres fælles sønnen MJ (Maynard James). Senere ender de begge i en bilulykke, hvor de passagere som sidder i den anden bil, bliver slået ihjel, derefter bliver Susan og Mike skilt. I 5/6 sæson bliver de nu udsat for endnu en bilulykke, men det får dem til at få øjnene op for hinanden igen. Mike har i mellemtiden haft en forhold til Katherine Mayfair, som skaber et hav af problemer i form af falske beskyldninger mm. Da Mike har haft rod i økonomien bliver de nødt til at udleje huset mens de må flytte i en lejlighed i en nærliggende by. Mike tager til Alaska for at tjene hurtige penge for at sikre en hurtig tilbageflyt til Wisteria Lane. I mellemtiden har Mary Alice's enkemand taget bopæl i Susans hus med – sin nye kone.

Gabrielles Historie
Gabrielle Solis (Gabby) er hende med smykkerne og tøjet fra Paris, men hun er ikke lykkelig med sin mand Carlos Solis. Hun elsker ham skam, men han er aldrig hjemme og sætter sit arbejde før hende, og da Gabrielle ikke kan lide at være alene starter hun en affære med sin da 16-årige gartner John. Gabrielle møder dog senere borgmesterkandidaten Victor som hun bliver gift med. Victor dør da en tornado ødelægger Wisteria Lane, og Gabrielle bliver igen gift med Carlos der er gået hen og er blevet blind. Dog får Carlos og Gaby to døtre, Gaby må nu tage hele ansvaret for sin familie og se bort fra sine egne behov. Senere finder lægerne ved en tilfældighed en måde at give Carlos sit syn tilbage, Carlos bliver direktør for et stort firma. I sæson 7 og 8 fremgår det hvorfor Gabrielle bruger sin seksualitet som redskab for at få sin vilje.

Lynettes Historie
Lynette var engang en karrierekvinde, men så fik hun børn. Børn hun ikke kunne styre, og som fik hende til at tage piller. Hendes mand Tom, var aldrig hjemme. Hun stod med fire umulige børn ALENE. Tom og Lynettes ægteskab hænger i en tynd tråd da Lynette går hen og får kræft. Lynette overvinder kræften.
Flere år senere bliver Lynette gravid igen, med tvillinger, men mister den ene da hun skubber Carlos og Gabrielle's datter væk fra flyet som styrter ned på deres vej. Den anden baby – en lille pige – kommer til verden med hjælp fra den psykisk ustabile dreng, som på daværende tidspunkt holder Lynette som fange, da hun opdager at han har slået sin mor og adskillelige andre kvinder ihjel.

Adressen Wisteria Lane
Wisteria Lane er navnet på en fiktiv gade i byen Fairview, i den fiktive stat Eagle (USA). Gadeskiltet Wisteria Lane kan ses udenfor Mary Alice hus. Gaden har gennemgået mange ændringer i løbet af de 7 sæsoner.

Det begynder  hvor Edie Britts hus bliver sat i brand af Susan. Under hele første sæson er huset under rekonstruktion. Huset bliver endelig vist i den første episode af Sæson 2.
Også i sæson 2, bliver det afsløret, at der ligger en lille park for enden af gaden. Parken bliver brugt til forretningsmøder, banketter og skovture.
I sæson 3 er der også mange ændringer i kvarteret; Susans hus ombygges i slutningen af sæson 2. Det blev ombygget med en udvidelse i køkkenet. Ændringer blev også fremsat på indkørslen i Lynette Scavos garage.
I Episode 9 i sæson 4, bliver Wisteria Lane bogstaveligt talt ødelagt af en tornado. De fleste huse bliver ødelagt af vinden. Interiøret på villaer, er stærkt beskadiget af tornadoen. Karen McCluskeys gamle hus kollapser.

Den virkelige Wisteria Lane
Det sæt af husfacader (interiør er skudt i studie), er Colonial Street som ejes af  Universal Pictures , som kan besøges i  en forlystelsespark hos Universal Studios i Studio Attraction turen. Længe før Desperate Housewives, har det været brugt i flere film som The Adventures of Beaver (Mary Alice's House), Harvey (Gabrielle's hus), Commuters (Bree's hus, Martha, Betty, Susan, Mary -Alice og Mike), Deep Impact (Susan's hus) og Bedtime for Bonzo og The spice of life. Mange tv-serier har også brugt husene fra Desperate Housewives som Badge 714 (Martha Hubers hus), Monsters (Almas hus), The Hardy Boys (Susans hus), Providence (Bree's hus), American College og Lisa Code .

Tajanovská borovice byl památný strom u osady Tajanov, severovýchodně od Velhartic. Borovice lesní (Pinus sylvestris) rostla při cestě jižně od Tajanova v nadmořské výšce 585 m. Obvod jejího kmene měřil 294 cm a koruna dosahovala výšky 15 m (měření 2000). Borovice byla chráněna od roku 1985 pro svůj vzrůst a jako krajinná dominanta. Vítr bouře Kyrill borovici 18. ledna 2007 vyvrátil a zcela zničil.

Alzheimer's is a scary disease. Alzheimer's disease is a difficult topic for many to discuss but it is important to remember "Facts conquer fear".
Alzheimer's is a disease that robs people of their memory. In the start people with Alzheimer's have a hard time remembering recent events, however long term memories remain intact.
Alzheimer's usually occurs in people over the age of 65. Women are more likely to have it than men.
However as we age our memories do tend to slip. Mild forgetfulness is a normal part of aging. But if memory problems start affecting your daily life, then it can be a sign of Alzheimer's disease. The range of symptoms and their severity vary person to person, but it is very important to know what they symptoms are so you can identify them early on.
This is the most common symptom. You need to ask yourself are you easily forgetting information you just picked up? Are you noticing that you are asking for the same information over and over again? Do you find yourself increasingly using post-it-notes or reminders on your smartphone?
One of the early symptoms is having difficulties in reading and trouble judging distance. Also some people have difficulties telling colors apart. If you notice these problems, you should visit a doctor, especially more so if you drive.
Finding the right word becomes difficult and it starts happening often. Some people also find themselves calling things by the wrong name.
Also keeping up and joining conversations may seem difficult. Another sign is that you find that you keep on repeating yourself or have to suddenly stop in the middle of a discussion as you do not know what to say.
Frequent mood swings leading to feeling depressed, scared and anxious are often a sign of Alzheimer's. Some people also begin to feel increasingly suspicious of people.
Misplacing things is very common, it happens to everybody at every age. However it should be taken as a symptom of Alzheimer's when you find that you are not able to retrace your steps to find them. Or you find that you are keeping things in usual places, for example your spectacles in the refrigerator.
What should you do if you have the above symptoms?
If you notice that you have some of these signs, you should visit your doctor. The sooner you visit a doctor the better, for early treatments help to better manage Alzheimer's disease.
Once you get a doctor's appointment she will carry out an evaluation of your mental and physical health. She will also take an in-depth look at your medical history. She may also suggest for blood or brain imaging tests.
Once the results are in, depending upon them she may refer to you a neurologist who specializes in Alzheimer's.
You can also find an Alzheimer specialist through your local Alzheimer's association.
High cholesterol and high blood pressure increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease. You should get your cholesterol checked and talked to your doctor about how to effectively manage your cholesterol levels.
Family history plays a great role. People who have sibling or parent with Alzheimer's are at a greater risk.
Some studies have shown links between major head injuries and Alzheimer's.
Does your diet contribute towards Alzheimer's disease?
According to researchers having a healthy diet does help to reduce the risk of you getting Alzheimer's.
Researchers have found that people who followed diets which contained foods like berries, leafy greens and fish had a major reduction in their risk of Alzheimer's. Such a diet resembles the Mediterranean diet a lot.
It is difficult to keep faith during the trail of Alzheimer's but remember that God always can bring good out of anything, even Alzheimer's.

Rafa Explains Why Newcastle Are Now Winning – Next Test Is West Ham
11:25pm Tuesday, February 26th, 2019
Rafa Benitez must have been a very pleased man tonight having seen all the hard work he has done on the training ground with his players starting to pay off.
We now have four wins and 13 points from the last six games and if we can keep that up for the last 10 games we will beat last season's total of 44 points.
But we don't want to get too far ahead of ourselves either because last season we lost four of the last five games.
But Rafa is adamant he will take one game at a time and do all he can to get the 3 points in every one of the final 10 games remaining for the season.
Sean Longstaff – scores his first goal in Premier League for Newcastle
This is what he said tonight in his press conference after the game:
"We have a message that is very clear: one game at a time. Why are we winning games now? Because everybody is doing what they have to do and everybody is focused just on the games."
"And it's what we have to do against West Ham."
"I was not thinking too much about how many points we could be clear. Just carry on doing what we know we can do well."
"We went to Spain and trained really well and we came back and are in the same situation. The players work hard and are keen to do the right things"
"They want to be solid as a team and be a threat.'
I said so many times when he (Longstaff was coming with us and training with us he was doing well."
"He was lucky enough to make his debut sooner rather than later because of injuries but now he deserves to be in there."
"A lot of positives we have a young, local lad playing well and scoring goals."
"We know what we have to do and we try to do that. Atsu's a very good player and he gives us different things. We know we have different things now with Almiron and that's good for me."
"We know he (Schar) is capable of doing that. On the ball, he is good, and now he is improving in defense and the understanding with the other players is getting better."

Jail @75 – True but recently our games have been a lot more entertaining especially against Huddersfield but last night was a particularly hard grind. Don't get me wrong I'm delighted to take the 3 points I just can't imagine BT neutrals would be too enthralled!

Fantastic win last night.
Looks like we're hitting form just at the right time again.
Lots of similarities to last season the way this one has gone.

Fat cnut out!
Jail for Ashley
As Rafa says we can't lose concentration but for me we are all but mathematically safe, Cardiff can't be taken apart l;like that by two distinctly average teams then expect to bounce back.

It's nice to see some of the players who have received a lot of stick (some of it warranted of course) getting the praise they deserve.
Hayden unlike some previous players who have sulked when they wanted out has got his head down and is playing the best football of his career so far.
Manquillo, never hear the lad moaning, knows he's a squad player, he's 'OK' on the left but put him right wing back and he looks fine, actually links play well going forward and is slightly better defensively than he gets credit for.
Perez, works hard but seems to have got renewed confidence from having Almiron in the side, better with the ball and will hopefully push on and improve further.
And i'm going to add Schar in too, lots of comments earlier in the season about not being good enough, seems to get better defensively every game and being able to spot a pass, bring the ball forward really benefits us. For me, him and Dubravka have been absolute bargains, as has Perez to be fair.
Lascelles is starting to look better in a back three, still can't believe some people wanted to sell him. Slowly but surely Rafa is building a good side, if he can add a bit more quality and depth then we'll move up the table.
Just hope Muto gets another chance, think he'd be useful off the bench for 20mins, especially if Almiron was still on to play him in behind the defence.
Will be interesting to see how Shelvey gets back in the side.
Tim the toon
Thanks JfA
Seems a pity, because I don't think that either Dummet or Ritchie are the answer long term. Dummet is a solid defender, but I'm not sure he offers enough going forward (even with his pace), and Ritchie is a better player further forward.
hibbit @76 – Sure, as I say I'm delighted with the win and I'm not complaining because sometimes you have to grind out results like that. I can just imagine it was not the greatest spectacle for the neutral!
Bambams
I wonder if there is any way we could persuade Hayden to stay he is a regular starter and there is no guarantee this will happen if he moves.
Hate to see the lad leave now.
RobLeenio
I think Rafa purposefully set us up differently in the second half. He's adapted the tactics over the course of the season, gradually allowing the players a bit more freedom, but last night was a good opportunity to test how resilient the system could be when already in a position of strength with two goals in hand.
We shut them out completely in the second half, limited them to half chances and scruffy scrambles and this with our brand new flair player on the pitch.
It was a valuable exercise, I think Rafa will have leaned a great deal.
I do wonder what our new-found fans in the USA will have made of it, however. Haven't our next matches (and last night's) been given prime-time slots on NBC?
beermonkey
if you would have said around oct time that hayden and kid from the under21s would form our midfield hold there own v city spurs wolves
most of us would have laughed
it will be a shame if we sell him in the summer


The German economy grows at the weakest pace in fifteen months in May, the latest manufacturing and services activity surveys from IHS/Markit research showed.
German manufacturing purchasing managers index (PMI) slumped to fifteen-month lows in May, coming in at 56.8 while services PMI dropped to 20-month lows at 52.1 versus 53.0 last.
The IHS Markit Flash Germany Composite Output Index fell to a 20-month low of 53.1 in May, from April's 54.6.
"The flash PMI data indicate that the recent slowdown in Germany's private sector continued into May. Business activity showed the weakest rise for over a year-and-a-half, and it was a case of slower growth across both the manufacturing and services segments of the economy.
"There was some anecdotal evidence suggesting that the timing of public holidays during the month had led to workers taking days off to bridge the holidays and weekends. However, weaker order book growth and a further waning of business confidence point to the economy carrying a lot less underlying momentum than at the end of 2017.

The guest list at the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer on 29 July 1981 included many members of royal families from around the world, republican heads of state, and members of the bride's and groom's families. As Prince Charles was heir to the British throne, the event was automatically deemed a "state occasion", formally requiring the invitation of many foreign heads of state; in addition, the marriage of the prince, who remained a bachelor until the age of 32, to the 20-year-old Lady Diana drew much attention from around the world. The guest list for the wedding, which took place at St Paul's Cathedral in London, included 3,500 people.
