Neoliberalism has had a radical impact on how people perceive and experience gender around the world. But while the impact of this economic and social framework on gender has received significant scholarly attention in the case of women, there has been a dearth of scholarship on how it affects men's experience and understanding of gender. Building on the work of Cornwall and Lindisfarne's landmark text Dislocating Masculinity, this collection provides a fresh perspective on gender dynamics under neoliberalism.
The subjects covered in Masculinities under Neoliberalism range from working class men in Putin's Russia to colonial masculinities in Southern Rhodesia and from young British Muslim men to amateur footballers in Jamaica, offering a unique glimpse into the lives of men across the globe. The contributors show how neoliberalism has transformed gender relations as well as how we understand and enact masculinity. Masculinities under Neoliberalism holds important implications not only for the study of gender, but also for sociology, development, and postcolonial studies.


Would you try another book from Paula Hawkins and/or the narrators?
I don't think there was an issue with the performances the book was long winded. If it was half as long I might have enjoyed it. The story line just circled around the main characters alcoholism, apologizing for her behavior and broken marriage.
enjoyable for young and old.
What made the experience of listening to The Activist the most enjoyable?
My 9 year old loves this series. No sexual undertones or needs for parental worry. I can listen to it with her and find it enjoyable also. The dialogue about legal process is educating and appropriately written for children to understand. I recommend this series.
What made the experience of listening to Love and War the most enjoyable?
I am not a fan of history. The characters were dynamic.
This is a very long book. So its a good value for the money. The narrator is great. The characters fabulous. I am not sure how historically accurate the story is as I am not into history. However I thoroughly enjoyed the series.
If you could sum up The Arctic Incident in three words, what would they be?
My husband and daughter enjoy listening to this story together.
Yes. The other Artis Fowl books.
No. Its nice to look forward to hearing it.
Good fun for the family.
That the narrator sounded a little like Henry Fonda so it also made the story immediately familiar.
Have you listened to any of Dylan Baker's other performances before? How does this one compare?
No. First time I had listened to his work.
I listened to this with my 8 year old. There is some cursing but the story is great. She made the observation that the machine of the bank is very similar to the foreclosure crises that we are coming through. Found that pretty insightful for a child. She loved the characters. I loved hearing the story after reading it years before. Its a long book and worth the time.
If you could sum up Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer in three words, what would they be?
What was one of the most memorable moments of Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer?
When Theodore struggled with fighting in school. He is not a fighter but struggled with the concept of sticking up for right vs wrong. A very real everyday struggle for children and adults.
Which character – as performed by Richard Thomas – was your favorite?
No. Its a book that my daugther and I listen to together.
This is a book that can be listened to as a family. The tv is off or in the car the radio is off. Conversation regarding characters and situations in the book follow.
What did you love best about Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter?
It was a fascinating twist on an interesting man.
What about Scott Holst's performance did you like?
Yes and no. It required attention. I needed to listen and couldnt be distracted.
Well spent in that I listen to it at work. However I do not feel compelled to listen to it. The narrators sounds very very young and I imagine the character to be a teenagers and she isnt. She does a great job but for the most part may not have been the right choice. I think the story line is intriguing but its not holding my interest.
What could Molly Harper have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Molly Harper is a great voice over artist. She may not have been the right choice for this character.
This romance may have been better had another pass been made at proof reading and edit. I may not be the romance novel type but I felt it was weak.
This is the first in a series. We were looking for a new series for my daughter. I appreciated most of the reviews are from kids so we ordered it. She loved it. Cant stop listening to it. We looked at the second in the series but she also looked at the book. It has drawings, maps etc so she is requesting to read that one. However I am sure she will want the audio also since she loves listening to books. When a book is on she sits on the floor and constructs legos. The tv is off and so is she. Quiet time of brain engagement. This is a wonderful story with adventure and magical lands.
What does Nathaniel Parker bring to the story that you wouldn't experience if you just read the book?
He is a wonderful narrator and brings the characters to life. I have heard him in other books and he is a selling point for the audio.
Its a good start to a new fun series.
I didn't think it was such a great idea when my parents decided the family would spend the summer in a vacant house in a small town called Blairingville. Boringville seemed more like it. But as it turned out, this vacation was anything but boring. It all started when my brother and I looked in that closet marked OFF LIMITS. Now I've got a monster breathing down my neck!
Would you consider the audio edition of The Creatures from Beyond Beyond to be better than the print version?
Havent read the print version. With the goosebumps we always like the audio's. Brings an old radio feel to the event.

Book, 'The Prize 1884'; 1884; XAH.GH.358
Book, 'The Prize 1884'
This hardbound book, entitled 'The Prize', belonged to nine-year-old Thora Daisy Kerr Taylor, known as Daisy to her family. The book contains black and white as well as coloured illustrations and Daisy's name has been written on the front cover.
Daisy died of 'brain fever' on 15 September 1885, aged nine. Although it is not known for certain what was meant by 'brain fever', it is likely that it was some form of meningitis.
While the death of a child was not unusual during the Victorian era, this does not mean that the loss was not felt greatly by parents and family members. In the Kerr Taylor family archives held at Alberton, there are a number of mementoes which serve as poignant reminders of the family's tragic loss, including small drawings by Daisy and a portrait of Daisy with her older sister Adeline Violet. Daisy's parents also commissioned a stained stained glass window in the chancel in St. Luke's Church in Mount Albert, Auckland, in memory of their young daughter. (1)

CIM Group Announces that Affiliates of Cole Office & Industrial REIT (CCIT II) Have Closed on the Sale of 18 Industrial Properties for Approximately $625 Million
Net proceeds to further position CCIT II to maximize shareholder value
PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Certain wholly owned subsidiaries of Cole Corporate Income Operating Partnership II, LP, of which Cole Office & Industrial REIT (CCIT II), Inc. ("CCIT II" or the "REIT"), a publicly registered non-listed real estate investment trust ("REIT") that primarily owns and operates net-lease commercial real estate across the office and industrial sectors, is the sole general partner, and owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of the partnership interests, have closed on the previously announced sale of 18 industrial properties to Industrial Logistics Properties Trust ("ILPT") for $624.7 million. The transaction includes $567.7 million in cash and the assumption of a $57.0 million loan by ILPT.
"CCIT II intends to deploy the net sale proceeds to further position the portfolio to maximize shareholder value," said Bill Miller, President of CCO Capital, LLC, a registered broker-dealer owned by CIM Group and dealer manager for CCIT II.
Following the close of the transaction, CCIT II's portfolio now consists of 17 office properties and one industrial property encompassing approximately 2.8 million gross rentable square feet of commercial space across nine states. The assets are 100.0% leased with a weighted average lease term of 9.0 years and represent 17 tenant concepts and 11 industry sectors, with 66% of rental revenues derived from investment-grade tenants. Major tenants in the portfolio include Keurig Green Mountain, Dow Chemical, Freeport-McMoRan and Traveler's Insurance.
"Going forward, we believe the REIT is well-positioned to achieve its investment objectives based on the portfolio's diversification, overall credit quality and tenant roster," said Mark Selman, Managing Director for Portfolio Oversight at CIM Group. "Proceeds from the sale will be used for the acquisition of additional high-quality net-lease properties, the repayment of debt and for other general corporate purposes."
Eastdil Secured represented CCIT II in the transaction.

A common strategy used by researchers in treating type 1 diabetes (T1D) is to destroy or deactivate immune cells that mistakenly attack insulin-producing beta cells. There have been many variations on this approach over the years, but effectiveness has been limited. Typically, these autoreactive cells reemerge. However, tackled this issue from a different angle instead of looking at how to increase certain protective cells.
Researchers, including Daniel Moore who works with the Diabetes Research Connection, found that IgMs have immunoregulatory properties that help to limit inflammatory responses and decrease autoreactive B lymphocytes. Islet-reactive B lymphocytes have been found to produce anti-islet antibodies linked to the development of stage 1 T1D. IgM may also help to stimulate the production of regulatory T cells.
When administered in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, purified IgM was able to prevent the development of diabetes and increase regulatory T cells. However, IgM that was taken from pre-diabetic mice was not as effective. IgM obtained from Swiss Webster donor mice (recognized as healthy, not pre-diabetic, mice) was highly effective in reversing hyperglycemia and preventing the onset of diabetes. The researchers also used human IgM from healthy donors and found similar results.
The study shows the potential effectiveness of healthy donor IgMs in promoting normal immune homeostasis, preventing diabetes occurrence, and reversing new-onset diabetes. While immunoglobulin therapy is not a new concept, it usually contains low levels of IgM, whereas this study focused on higher levels of purified IgM. More research is necessary to further explore the potential of donor polyclonal IgM for the prevention and treatment of type 1 diabetes.
Daniel Moore, a senior author on the study, is a scientist associated with the Diabetes Research Connection (DRC). The DRC is committed to funding novel, peer-reviewed research focused on preventing and curing T1D as well as improving quality of life for those with the disease. It has played a role in supporting dozens of projects. To learn more about current studies, visit http://diabetesresearchconnection.org.

Phnom Penh Post - Tech innovator Cambodian girls create prize-winning poetry app
Tech innovator Cambodian girls create prize-winning poetry app
Raksmey Hong | Publication date 17 September 2019 | 20:53 ICT
LiterTree won second prize at the annual World Pitch event in Silicon Valley, California, where they pitched their business idea live to investors, executives and academics from Uber, Stanford and other organisations and won a grant. Photo supplied

The creation of five girls aged 13 and 14, LiterTree is a team dedicated to one sole purpose – the preservation of Khmer poetry, which is at risk of being forgotten due to four decades of neglect following the killing of artists and the destruction of books and other artefacts of cultural heritage during the Khmer Rouge genocide.
To do this, LiterTree developed the Naeng-Norng (rhyme and rhythm) application to benefit students, particularly high school students, as well as poets and poetry lovers.
LiterTree is made up of Pollak Raksa Chea, 14, Dalen Heang, 13, Kakrona San, 14, Engtieng Ourn, 14 and Ena Im, 14 – all students at Phnom Penh's Liger Leadership Academy who formed as a team for this year's Technovation programme in Cambodia.
Technovation is a global tech education nonprofit empowering girls and families to become leaders, creators and problem-solvers, supported in Cambodia by USAID's Development Innovations, the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport and the Institute of Technology of Cambodia.
LiterTree told The Post about their app: "It was designed to help students. With an uncomplicated app design, we believe this app will be a useful source for Cambodian literature students who study poetry."
The young girls' team wants to help preserve Cambodian poetry and increase the number of Cambodian poets as the art form dies out in the Kingdom with the introduction of modern technology.
The app intends to make poetry fun and easy by putting all the materials needed to write Khmer poems available in one place.
"Khmer poetry has really specific rules and structures for us to follow, but the app will help to make writing easier by providing suggested topics, lessons where you can learn different types of poem and a search function for finding rhyming words in Khmer – we are the only app out there that has this function," said LiterTree, "The easier writing poetry is, the more people will write poems, and the more people write poems, the more this culture will be preserved."
There are five different functions on the app to help users: viewing posts; posting their own work; learning structure for writing different types of poems and background information; suggested topics to write about; and the search function, allowing users to search for rhyming words in Khmer.
"We believe the search function is excellent for Cambodian poetry writers who struggle to find words. We're planning to input as many Khmer poems as possible. Currently available lessons on the app include seven types of poetry: the four line rhyme; the six line rhyme; the seven line rhyme; the eight line rhyme; the nine line rhyme; the ten line rhyme; and the eleven line rhyme," said LiterTree.
The app is the result of one year of work and mentorship from Technovation, which helps young women across the world use cutting-edge technology to solve problems they face in their community and build businesses.
Tara Chklovski from Technovation, who organises the annual World Pitch event where LiterTree won second prize, told The Post by email: "They flew to Silicon Valley, California, and pitched their business idea live to investors, executives and academics from Uber, Stanford and other organisations and won a grant."
LiterTree is made up of Pollak Raksa Chea, 14, Dalen Heang, 13, Kakrona San, 14, Engtieng Ourn, 14 and Ena Im, 14 – all students at Phnom Penh's Liger Leadership Academy who formed as a team for this year's Technovation programme in Cambodia. Photo supplied
This year, entrants numbered 7,200 girls aged 10-18 from 57 countries, all tasked with developing a mobile application to solve an issue they've identified in their community.
LiterTree was the second team from Liger Leadership Academy to enter the Technovation competition, the first being in 2017. The 2017 team were awarded second place in the Junior Division by a panel of distinguished judges and received $5,000 cash, with LiterTree repeating the feat again this year at the World Pitch Summit held in Silicon Valley in mid-August.
Social Relay, a team from India, placed first with an app called Baton, designed to maximise the social impact of initiatives started by social work interns or students in underserved communities after the students' internships end. They took home a $12,000 prize.
"Everyone at the competition was so supportive, we all kept on praising and encouraging each other. We were a little bit nervous, but we presented our pitch with confidence smoothly and wanted to give our best for the nation. All our courage came from the backing that we received from the incredibly kind hearted Cambodian supporters living in the US. They made a surprise appearance at the summit, making us feel the need to do our best and forget about stage fright," LiterTree recalled of their presentation.
The team encountered challenges when working on the project. They had a very short time to develop their app, while coding was also something the team had to learn through tutorials and mentors, not to mention the inevitable differences in ideas among five ambitious young girls.
"We are all very distinct from each other so obviously different ideas popped up a lot and we had to learn to accept them, take them critically and develop or merge certain ideas. We learned to build a successful business, team work and coding," said LiterTree.
The $5,000 prize money will be used to continue developing, securing and sustaining the app, and the rest will go towards their education in STEM subjects.
"Our future plan is to work on and further develop our app to help preserve Khmer poetry. We will start dividing jobs between each team member to help tasks be more organised and easily done. We've also thought about finding donors as well.
"We will input as many existing rhyming words and lessons as possible by 2020, also adding more fun functions such as videos of authors reading poems by 2022 and a hangout system for users by 2024," the team said.
More information on the team and their innovative app can be found on Facebook (@LiterTree).

Dr. Spencer Lourens, biostatistics assistant professor at the Indiana University Richard M. Fairbanks School of Public Health (IUPUI), and colleagues recently published, "Acute Alcoholic Hepatitis: Natural History and Predictors of Mortality Using a Multicenter Prospective Study," in Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Innovations, Quality & Outcomes. The study's objectives were to examine the natural history of acute alcoholic hepatitis (AH) and identify predictors of mortality for AH using data from a prospective multicenter observational study.
Dr. Lourens and his colleagues observed heavy drinkers with and without a clinical diagnosis of AH over a one-year period, analyzing data from 164 patients with AH and 131 heavy-drinking controls with no liver disease. Heavy drinkers were defined as having average daily alcohol consumption greater than 40 g/d for women or greater than 60 g/d for men for the last five years, and active drinking within the six weeks before study enrollment. These amounts are believed to be reasonable minimal thresholds for the development of AH.
Clinical and laboratory assessments of the patients were given at baseline, 6 months after enrollment, and 12 months after enrollment to identify variables associated with mortality in AH and to examine the association between coffee drinking and risk of AH.
Through multivariable analyses, the study found that alcoholic hepatitis remains highly fatal, with one-year mortality of 25 percent. During follow-up, thirty-six patients with AH died, with most deaths occurring within the first six months after enrollment. In the case group, the most common cause of death was organ failure (24 of 36), followed by severe infection (5 of 36). Seven patients died of an unknown cause. Among controls, mortality was observed in only one individual (heroin overdose). The estimated 30-day, 90-day, 180-day, and one-year survival in patients with AH were 0.91, 0.85, 0.80, and 0.75, respectively. All in all, patients with AH have high short- and long-term mortality rates, with most deaths (85.7 percent) occurring within six months after enrollment.
The study also found that regular coffee consumption was associated with lower risks of AH development in heavy drinkers, but did not provide mortality benefit once AH developed. While heavy drinkers with regular coffee consumption were four times less likely to present with AH, this finding only indicates evidence for an association, not causation.
This study provides a prospective assessment of a variety of important issues in AH, and reveals several new issues that warrant future study. Read the full study to learn more about its methods and findings.

Comparison: HS-AirSynErgy vs. Premium class Glassfibre Filter.
The dispute of the italian Uni against the changes to EN779 was settled by end of March 2012. The revision of the standard EN779:2012 will be valid as EN standard very soon.
leak tests for assessing the level of efficiency (0.4 µm), the aerosol DEHS (Di-Ethyl-Hexyl-Sebacat) is to be used as a standard procedure.
The classification in compliance with EN779:2012 divides filter into Group-G and Group-F filter for coarse and fine dust adsoption. Accordingly, in the future there will be three filtration efficiency levels – G, M, and F. Filter that state a filtration efficiency for particles of 0.4 µm of 40 percent or less will be marked as class G.
The categorization of filtration Group G (G1 – G4) is based on the average dust holding capacity (gravimetric / weight). As for Group F and M, the determination of dust holding capacity will be an indicator for the filters lifespan. It won't be used for classification matters. Group M will include all filter with an average filtration efficiency of 40 percent of higher but with an efficiency of 80 percent or less for particles of 0.4 microns. Therefore, class F5 and F6 will fall by the wayside. Class M5 and M6 are to replace them. Other than that, the efficiency levels will be the same. Filter with an efficiency of 80 percent or higher for particles of 0.4 microns will be marked as Group F. Their overall efficiency is to be determined as before. But, according to the new procedure Group F-filter are to uphold a "minimum efficiency" (short: M.E.) which indicates the primary efficiency at the state of being electrostatically discharged This will be a mandatory criteria for all Group F-filter. We predict that for most commonly used synthetic filter media this will be hard to achieve.
We have optimized our compact wedge shaped filter and revised it in terms of better waste management. HS V-Pak filters are now supplied only in a fully combustible variant with plastic frame.
HS V-Pak filters are mainly used as a fine dust filters in comfort air handling units but also in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries as well as for extraction at workstations or mobile applications . Due to the compact design, HS V-Pak are mainly suiting for conditions with reduced space avaliablity or in mobile systems. As filter media we offer not only common glas media but also synthetics and membranes. The filter is designed for easy disposal and thanks to the completely metal-free design.
HS-V-Pak RFV and HS-V-Pak SFV are EPA respectively HEPA filters serving up to class EN1822:H14 and fullfill the requirements for useabe in gloveboxes and cleanbenches.

Croydon Council
This is how Croydon's roads will be kept clear of snow and ice this winter
Last year the council used 3,261 tonnes of salt on roads and paths - the equivalent weight of 16 adult blue whales

Croydon Council will use a new forecasting system to help keep roads clear and safe for drivers this winter.
For the first time the council will use data from Meteogroup, which provides the BBC with its weather updates, to make sure it has the most up to date forecasts for snow and ice, so it can "react to changing situations and proactively monitor the situation in Croydon".
This year, a fleet of 10 gritters will be available to treat 2,329 roads across Croydon, and they will be deployed on reaction to weather reports to treat routes before temperatures start to drop.
The council has said preparations are already underway to "prevent and mitigate" flooding, with gullies in "high risk" areas having been checked and cleared if neccessary.
Forecaster warns winter could bring four months of heavy snow and arctic conditions
According to the council, high risk routes include 'A' or 'B' roads, main bus routes, approaches to railway stations, approaches to fire, police and ambulance stations and streets with steep gradients.
High risk routes are also roads which are often well used, such as Brighton Road, in South Croydon, Lower Addiscombe Road, in Addiscombe, and High Street.
A fleet of 10 gritters is available to treat Croydon's roads this year
When temperatures remain below zero for an extended period or in event of heavy snowfall, the council gives priority to the roads on the primary gritting routes.
Councillor Stuart King, cabinet member for environment, transport and regeneration, says the council are "working hard" to prepare for the winter weather.

"Staff are working hard every single day of the year to help the borough and this includes dealing with the cold and wet weather over winter," he said.
"Gritters will be treating priority routes ahead of bad weather and ready to head out across the borough as and when needed.

"We are working hard to prepare for and prevent any issues the winter weather may present."
Last year the council used 3,261 tonnes of salt on roads, footpaths and other areas, the equivalent weight of 16 adult blue whales. This was most likely down to the extreme weather conditions the UK faced, which including several days of snowfall.

Earlier this year, more than 30 schools were forced to close because of snowfall and icy roads.
A similar amount of salt is expected to be used again this year, while there is also 4,000 sandbags in storage ready to be deployed if necessary.

Approximately 30 per cent of the borough's roads are salted, which equated to around 240km worth of road.

Amplifying our vision of the infinitely small
By: Ramprasath R On: 3.12.13 In: Science No comments
Richard Martel and his research team at the Department of Chemistry of the Université de Montréal have discovered a method to improve detection of the infinitely small. Their discovery is presented in the November 24 online edition of the journal Nature Photonics. Credit: Universite de Montreal
Richard Martel and his research team at the Department of Chemistry of the Université de Montréal have discovered a method to improve detection of the infinitely small. Their discovery is presented in the November 24 online edition of the journal Nature Photonics.
"Raman scattering provides information on the ways molecules vibrate, which is equivalent to taking their fingerprint. It's a bit like a bar code," said the internationally renowned professor. "Raman signals are specific for each molecule and thus useful in identifying these molecules."
Applications of the discovery: retail, banks, hospitals, etc.
The discovery by Martel's team is that Raman scattering of dye-nanotube particles is so large that a single particle of this type can be located and identified. All one needs is an optical scanner capable of detecting this particle, much like a fingerprint.
"By incorporating these nanoparticles in an object, you can make it perfectly traceable," he said. Due to their unique structure, carbon nanotubes, which are electrically conductive, can be used as containers for various molecules. Coupled with a dye, these nanoprobes can increase the complexity and strength of the received signal.
Nanoprobes, which are composed of around one hundred dye molecules aligned inside a cylinder, are 50,000 times smaller than a human hair.
They are about one nanometre (nm) in diameter and 500 nm long, yet they send a Raman signal one million times stronger than the other molecules in the surrounding.
According to Professor Martel, the applications from this discovery are numerous. In medicine, nanoprobes could lead to improved diagnostics and better treatment by adhering to the surface of diseased cells. These specifically modified nanoprobes could, in effect, be grafted to bacteria or even proteins, allowing them to be easily identified.
One could also imagine custom officers scanning our passports with Raman multispectral mode (i.e., involving several signals). Nanoprobes could also be used in banknote ink, making counterfeiting virtually impossible.
The beauty of it, said Martel, is that the phenomenon is generalized, and many types of dyes can be used to make nanoprobes or tags, whose "bar codes" are all different. "So far, more than 10 different tags have been made, and it seems the sky's the limit," he said. "We could, in theory, create as many of these tags as there are bacteria and use this principle to identify them with a microscope operating in Raman mode."
The story of Raman signals
Raman scattering mode is an optical phenomenon discovered in 1928 by the physicist Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman. The effect involves the inelastic scattering of photons, i.e. the physical phenomenon by which a medium can modify the frequency of the light impinging on it.
The difference corresponds to an exchange of energy (wavelength) between the light beam and the medium. In this way, scattered light does not have the same wavelength as incidental light. The technique has become widely used since the advent of the laser in the industry and for research .
But until now, molecular Raman signals have been too weak to serve the needs of optical imaging effectively. So researchers have used other more sensitive techniques but which are less specific because they have no "bar code." "It is technically possible, however, to enhance the Raman signals of molecules using rough metallic surfaces," said Martel. "But their sizes limit the applications of Raman spectroscopy and imaging."
By aligning dye molecules encapsulated in carbon nanotubes, the researchers were able to amplify the Raman signals of these molecules, which until now have not been strong enough to detect. The article presents experimental evidence of extraordinary scattering of visible light on a nanoparticle.

New client Elave Skincare is one of the few brands that have taken me away from my beloved Arcona. For one thing, like Arcona, Elave is free from all the bad stuff - sulfates, parabens, fragrances, chemical preservatives, etc. etc. For another, the products actually leave my skin feeling incredible - especially the Oil Free Skin Balancing line, designed specifically for the US market.
Beauty industry veterans/consultants, Ashette brought Elave over from Ireland at the recommendation of renowned British makeup artist Jemma Kidd, who loves the line for sensitive skin. Developed by a 75 year old Irish pharmaceutical company, Ovelle, Elave's heritage is in post-op treatments and dermatological skincare ... so heavy duty healing technology with natural ingredients.

Only a little bit to go now on my diet and am celebrating the last day at work here to go onto my first 'proper' job next week. I have waited AGES for my enhanced CRB form to come through and I'm excited yet v nervous about new job. As is tradition, I brought in a carrot and orange cake and some home made chocolate muffins for everyone at work and have plonked them down opposite me. The muffins smell sooooo good (and taste good apparantly). I have been wrestling with my conscious over these cakes since driving to work this morning and it looks like I'm going to have some to take back home anyway. I am on 790 and lost 4lbs last week but had really slow losses the 3 weeks before. Only had a tiny bit of chicken last night as the rest hadn't defrosted (more of an AAM meal really) though so didn't really have much yesterday. I did treat myself to a steak on Sunday already but only had veg with it, although am also planning to ignore all the rules of the diet when I see my friends next weekend for an evening out. I am still in ketosis and haven't knocked myself out since the start of the diet. Also TOTM which is the most chocolately time (does anyone else get this??) but I feel I 'deserve' a treat for the new job (and for blo*dy cooking the stupid muffins!!).
So the million dollar question - should I have a muffin or not?? Half a muffin? 2 muffins and a slice of carrot cake?? I'm torn.
Don't know if this is good advice or not but I think at your stage if you want a piece of cake or a muffin you should have one and enjoy it! Then get someone with a family at work to take the leftovers home for their family to enjoy. Having one helping to celebrate with your friends to me would be a sensible food decision and that's what we are meant to be learning during this stage in the weightloss.
Something switched in me yesterday that is making me determined to move on and forward and get to the end of this diet and looking forward now to the sensible and healthy eating necessary at the end of it. I think the longer we delay and stick to the more restrictive plans the harder it is for our bodies and more likely we are to feel we are failing (cheating).
It is actually quite normal and sensible to have one cake to celebrate. Personally if you'll enjoy it I say "Go for it!"
Is it Marks and Spencers C&O cake? YUMMY!!
Have some - just HAVE SOME - If you haven't already haha!
Hope I'm not too late Jubbly ...NO!!!!
You've done so well - and only 11lb's to go til your target .. one muffin leads to another .. and before you know it you'll be standing on the scales having put weight on.
So my advice is: NO!! and think how great you'll feel when you lose weight next time on the scales!! and how much better you'll feel when you see your friends - slimmer!
Right, I am still dithering here and can still smell them but have had my shake for lunch to bide me more time to make a decision. Don't want one so much now and feel a bit chocolated out (shake was choc-mint as usual) but still flirting with the idea of half a muffin for this afternoon when I get bored. Not doing anything today at work as can't get sacked surely on last day!! So far 2 of you say yes, 1 says no.
no no no....the evvvvil chatter box is telling you are fine now and you should really eat lots of carbs!!! in 790 you are still in the lovely ketosis...do you remember the first few days? is a muffin (which you can have another day...) worth going through the hunger and mind games again with yourself??! 11lbs to go....could be a few ounces down today....if you eat that muffin....it isn't going to be a few ounces down...and then the munchies will try to get you!!!
I still think that you should if you will enjoy it. If you will feel rubbish after and regret it then don't. But I definitely think that if you eat one cake and enjoy it. You will also feel a sense of achievement that you stuck at one. You shouldn't be in ketosis anyway at your bmi you don't need the comfort blanket anymore you are strong enough to move on. I have changed the focus of my goal to being confident and enjoying healthy eating and eating in moderation. I'm actually really excited about the prospect. My goal weight isn't so important now. It's a figure plucked from the air anyway. I'm thinking when I get to the stage of healthy eating no plan if I still have extra to lose it will go and that my body will find it's ideal weight.
If you don't want to give up cake forever, you need to learn how to eat and enjoy one piece. If you feel ready to do that today. Then again I say "GO FOR IT!"
That's 2 of us now Jubbly!!! and both CDC's!!! If you're bored go on the arcade games on here instead!!
really what everyone is trying to say is that it's really up to you just take everything into consideration and if you feel it's the right thing to do...then fine, but the elusive last stone is the hardest and only gets harder with any blip you have.
Speaking from experience here...darn last stone.
If it was me, I'd say no because my goal is important to me, even if it is a number plucked from the air...plus it's about my own personal battle and my own pride....I have to keep the chatterbox in check otherwise it'll get strong and I'll become weak and munch loads of stuff without arguement and never get to the goal I set myself! Failure is not an option.
I say stick it in the freezer when you get home. If you still feel then that you really want it then cut a very tiny slice off before you freeze it and savour that.
I say NO!! but thats cos I know I would probably just watn more if it was me...!!
If you haven't already had the cake. I like to say don't have any now. All your colleagues will have had theres by now and so it won't be a celebration of your time there. It will be more a case of eating up the leftovers. Stick to the plan to the end except for special circumstances where you should make sensible decisions to deviate. I think it's important to learn to make these decisions rather than just let them happen. You did that today already.
Hope the new job goes smoothly when do you start?
Still haven't had any but did email a friend and said if I had half a muffin would he eat the other half so I'm that one step closer!! There's some left but I am going to take the few muffins home for Graham and give the carrot cake away.
You'll be fine with the job once you get started. It's what you have been working towards for years. I can appreciated you would be nervous. Hope you can enjoy your few days off the rest of the week.
Good luck with your new job - I'm sure it's a very exciting and nerve racking time but something to look forward to.
Question is - did you eat the muffin...??????
I ignored you all anyway and ate half of it (gave other half to friend at work) plus a mouthful of the carrot and orange cake. The chocolate made me feel sick but the cake was GORGEOUS. At WI last night had lost just 1lb. Treated myself as suggested (even though I had the cake as well!!!) and spent a silly amount on new size 12 clothes yesterday in places like Oasis and Topshop but still felt super-fat in Republic.
I did it because I checked my BMI and it is either mid 22s or high 21s. I'm not sure my CDC's scales are right as I'm sure I'm not that thin!! She wants me to stay on 790 this week although I want to go onto 1000 Even though I ate it, I felt good for stopping where I did and have not touched any of the leftovers I bought home for Graham. But I'm going to be an angel this week!!
What a lovely thought and feeling coming home and hanging up a load of new clothes..

OV UTE – "Unwanted Love" carefully unpacks his emotions and feelings in a rational fashion
Jeena Johnson July 24, 2022 August 10, 2022
Born in Romania, OV UTE translocated to Brentwood, Tennessee, when he was just 8 months old. He has been producing beats, writing lyrics, and mixing his own audio since 2017. Currently he has a 16-track project out, called "Unwanted Love". Here the performer and his production capabilities perfectly encapsulate their strengths, blending prodigious beats with smooth flows, reinforced by lyrical proficiency. OV UTE flaunts his dense musical knowledge and pulls warm shimmering sounds into a variety of innovative beats. His delivery and lyrics are up to par with his production.
OV UTE exhibits his ability to narrate his life experiences without dependence on undistinguished hooks and repetitive yapping over clichéd trap beats. He is a conscious and introspective rapper, who carefully unpacks his emotions and feelings in a rational fashion. OV UTE's passionate and smooth-baritone delivery perfectly complements the complexities of the beats, to create an admirable fusion of the two, as he layers his songs with captivating biographical notes.
OV UTE
"Unwanted Love" is an expression of sophisticated introspection in which OV UTE reflects on, confesses, denounces, and analyzes a series of struggles, sentiments and afflictions within the intricacies of relationships. The project clearly establishes the state of OV UTE's craft. Hot-blooded and quick-witted, the rapper unravels a bunch of intriguing scenarios with a steady unrushed flow, striking a believable image in each narrative, due to his transparent storytelling.
From the moment the album opens with the mellifluous "Trust", the Brentwood-based artist opts for a laid-back, smooth, and confident flow that resonates with rich tonal vibrancy. "Left Behind" and "Dream" confirms that statement. OV UTE doesn't let up, maintaining the deliberate but controlled pace, which just makes his vocal presence even more powerful. This restraint also builds tension, which he unloads on the harmonious "Wish".
The album gets progressively more confident as it goes on, while the piano plays a dominant role in each of these beats and is again prominent on "Fake Friends". There's a reliable level of unexpected quality, track after track, as each song is allowed to breathe and grow.
"Back" flourishes with skittering percussion and rumbling basslines, while "Lightning" is dark and ominous. The beat and rhymes stick to your ribs in "Caught Up In", as OV UTE avoids flashy gimmickry and is completely comfortable holding down the fort. His tales are rarely overblown, and his flow sounds like it was developed over the course of long nights pondering.
"Life", "Unreal People" and "Desperation", highlight OV UTE's ability to build nuanced worlds with his verses. He digs deep into his stories, and his emotions feel earned. By the time you press playing on "Saving", it is already clear that OV UTE attempts to carve out a sonic palette of his own on much of the album. While OV UTE is never prone to trite flourishes, his sensibilities seem to come from a past era where albums have long, wrenching emotional arcs, and the stakes written into them are unmistakably high.
OV UTE is not interested in totally reinventing the wheel in any major sense, yet many of the component parts of the album feel fresh and new. Moreover, OV UTE has more emotional range in his writing than many of his contemporaries.
When he turns the final corner on "Care For One", Flaws and Sins" and "Loaded" which closes the album, the result is nothing short of sublime. These tunes perfectly suit the more emotive end of the rapper's flow. Across its 16 tracks, OV UTE constant makes it feel more like one connected piece rather than a series of divided songs, and you're left with a stunning collage of his mindset.

Béla Wenckheim (ur. 16 lutego 1811 w Peszcie, zm. 7 lipca 1879 w Budapeszcie) – węgierski polityk, premier Węgier w 1875, minister spraw wewnętrznych Węgier w latach 1867–1869.

Życiorys
Béla Wenckheim pochodził z bogatej rodziny. Ukończył studia prawnicze w Peszcie i w wieku 19 lat został adwokatem. W 1839 został posłem do parlamentu, gdzie dołączył do frakcji liberalnej. Podczas powstania węgierskiego uczestniczył w pracach węgierskiego parlamentu. Po upadku powstania uciekł z kraju, do którego powrócił dopiero po ogłoszeniu amnestii dla jego uczestników. Po powrocie został członkiem węgierskiego sejmu krajowego, gdzie współpracował z Ferencem Deákiem.

Po zawarciu ugody austriacko-węgierskiej w 1867, na mocy której Węgry uzyskały daleko idącą samodzielność w ramach Austro-Węgier Wenckheim został ministrem spraw wewnętrznych w pierwszym węgierskim rządzie kierowanym przez Gyulę Andrássy'ego. W 1871 powrócił do rządu jako minister dworu królewskiego, którą to funkcję sprawował nieprzerwanie do swojej śmierci. W 1875 (po połączeniu się stronnictw Deáka i Kálmána Tiszy) był przez kilka miesięcy premierem rządu węgierskiego (od 2 marca do 20 października).

Nigdy się nie ożenił, zmarł bezpotomnie.

Some structured exercise program, physical education or "physical culture," has always been required of Swarthmore students as a condition of enrollment or graduation, from its earliest years into the 21st century.
Swarthmore College formed a Department of Physical Culture in 1888, but athletics on campus predate the department. The first athletic activities at the College took place during the 1870s in an era in which athletic activities and physical fitness were becoming more popular in American society in general and at colleges in particular. Records indicate that a baseball game was played on campus in 1875 and that the Swarthmore football squad played its first game in 1878, against the University of Pennsylvania.
In 1877, Swarthmore College Athletic Association (SCAA), a student organization that held various administrative responsibilities relating to men's athletics, was founded. In addition to organizing an annual track and field competition between class years, SCAA managed funds and maintained records for men's sports teams, worked with the Athletic Advisory Committee and Athletic Committee to establish eligibility rules, and performed various other duties. A parallel organization for women, the the Girls' Athletic Clubs (formalized and renamed the Women's Athletic Association in 1904), was organized in 1898. An organization of the managers of the men's athletic teams at Swarthmore College, the Society of KWINK, was organized in 1916 and remained active until the mid 1960s; managers of women's athletic teams joined a parallel group, GWIMP.
During the late 19th and early 20th century, the "Little Quakers" teams of Swarthmore College often fared exceptionally well. Swarthmore fielded several squads for intercollegiate competition from a pool of less than 100 male students, yet managed to compete against much larger institutions. These included the University of Pennsylvania, Penn State, Columbia, Harvard, Princeton, Rutgers, Yale, and Michigan, all members in the Intercollegiate Athletic Association (ICAA) in which Swarthmore competed. The football team also competed against Army, Navy, and the University of North Carolina. Swarthmore was a major contender for many years in the track competition now known as the Penn Relays. The lacrosse team won two national titles and one North American championship in the first decade of the 20th century. A strong rivalry began between Swarthmore and Haverford Colleges as early as the 1870s and matches between the football teams of these two institutions were especially anticipated and well attended. From the beginning, however, the violence and "unfriendly fervor" of this rivalry elicited the indignation of influential Quaker circles at Swarthmore and Haverford. Swarthmore College football was dropped for the 1908 season for these reasons, and meetings between the Haverford and Swarthmore teams were suspended from 1927 to 1941.
The former and latter incidents, however, took place in two very different eras. Under President Frank Aydelotte (1921-1940), the athletic program, like virtually every aspect of the College, underwent a substantial shift in direction. As early as the mid-1910s, during his tenure at Indiana University, Aydelotte published essays addressing what he saw as an unhealthy professional and commercial influence on college athletics. During his presidency at Swarthmore, he strove to establish a thoroughly amateur athletic program. His actions anticipated a growing movement among the presidents of small colleges to resolve the problems of professionalism and to integrate athletics as one facet of a broader liberal arts experience. This was part of an effort to maintain and intensify the new standards of intellectual rigor and academic excellence at the College and to insure the ideal of athletics for all, not just the very best.
In pursuit of these ideals, Aydelotte carried out significant reforms, many of which were designed to reduce the influence of the alumni. The College assumed full financial responsibility for athletics in 1932 which meant that the most important coaches became full-time faculty in the Department of Physical Education and their salaries paid entirely by the College. All male students, rather than just athletes and managers of the intercollegiate teams, were automatically members of the Athletic Association upon matriculation to the College. Admission to athletic competitions was now free for students and faculty, and prices for the general public were reduced to a nominal fee and limited to the most important games. More power was assigned to Dr. Samuel Palmer, who was the Graduate Manager (later Athletic Director) of sports at Swarthmore from 1909 to 1942. The Society of KWINK, a club for the assistant managers of the athletic teams, also took on many responsibilities that the Athletic Association had handled in the past, such as the general promotion of athletics among the student body and relations with teams from other colleges.
By 1937, it was determined that athletics could financially no longer support themselves. This marked a complete departure from the nature of athletics at the time of the Athletic Association's founding, when the administration played a minimal role in the athletics program and when insuring the financial foundation of Swarthmore sports was one of the most important responsibilities of the organization. Although the circumstances of the 1930s may have diminished the importance of the Athletic Association, it was the Second World War which brought the official end to the SCAA. Compared to many other small colleges, men's sports did survive at Swarthmore during the war, but they would emerge in the post-war period with an altered administrative structure that did not include an Athletic Association.
In 2000, the Swarthmore College Board of Managers made a controversial decision to end the football program at Swarthmore, citing a need to focus more on academics and less on athletics, and pointing out that resources (especially admissions spots) redirected from the football team could enrich other teams on campus. As of 2015, 40 percent of Swarthmore's student body participates in varsity, club and intramural sports. The college has 22 varsity teams, seven chartered club teams, and 16 full-time head coaches.
Some structured exercise program, physical education or "physical culture," has always been required of Swarthmore students as a condition of enrollment or graduation, from its earliest years into the 21st century. In 1888 Swarthmore College formed a Department of Physical Culture, now known as the Physical Education Department. The Swarthmore College Physical Education and Athletics Department records, 1921-1996, includes reports on the department, sports news releases, and other departmental-wide records; women's physical education logs and scorebooks from women's sports games; men's sports statistics; and programs, clippings, and score sheets from sports played by both genders.

Oklahoma County district attorney fires two assistants
by Tim Willert

Two Oklahoma County assistant district attorneys were fired last week because of their alleged actions during a recent murder trial, District Attorney David Prater said Wednesday.
Pam Kimbrough and Stephanie Miller were terminated April 5 after Prater learned they withheld a witness statement from defense attorneys representing Billy H. Thompson that was favorable to Thompson's case.
Thompson was convicted of first-degree murder March 15.
Prater has forwarded information from his investigation to the state attorney general's office for a possible criminal investigation. He also has sent the file to the Oklahoma Bar Association.
"Though I am heartbroken over their loss to this office, my decision to terminate them was an easy decision to make," Prater said in a written statement. "The gravity of their alleged ethical violation is so great that only one punishment equals their transgression."
Kimbrough was a veteran prosecutor who was team leader of the county's domestic violence division. She was hired by Prater when he was elected to office.
"I'm not comfortable making a comment as long as there is a pending bar investigation or attorney general's office investigation," Kimbrough said Wednesday.
Attempts to reach Miller were unsuccessful.
Oklahoma County District Judge Donald L. Deason presided over Thompson's trial. In a letter to jurors last week, he apologized for the actions of the two prosecutors and said that he will approve a request for a new trial.
Motion for new trial
Oklahoma County Public Defender Robert Ravitz said he could file a motion for a new trial as early as Tuesday. Thompson was represented by public defenders at his trial.
Ravitz applauded Prater's decision to fire Kimbrough and Miller.
"This demonstrates the total integrity of Mr. Prater and his willingness to do whatever is necessary to see that ethics prevail within the district attorney's office," Ravitz said. "This firing should not be taken as a black mark on his office, but should demonstrate that he will not tolerate unethical behavior."
In a statement, Prater said he contacted the public defender's office as soon as he learned of the alleged conduct. "To ensure the integrity of our investigation into the alleged ethical violations of the ADAs, I invited Mr. Ravitz to jointly investigate the allegations. He accepted."
Jurors convicted Thompson, 25, of first-degree murder in the Aug. 17, 2010, stabbing death of Manuel Leon Sanchez, 21. The victim was killed outside Thompson's house in Oklahoma City.
Jurors also convicted Thompson of assault and battery for stabbing Maxwell M. McIntyre, 19, in the chest.
(Story continued below...)
McIntyre testified during the trial that he and Sanchez left the house after an altercation and were walking up the street when Thompson came up behind them and stabbed them.
Thompson's attorneys argued he acted in self-defense after McIntyre beat him twice, including once when McIntyre punched Thompson multiple times and kicked him in the head.
Prosecutors alleged Thompson had punched a man in a wheelchair over a cigar during a night of heavy drinking and then threatened McIntyre when he intervened.
'Inconsistent' statement
Kimbrough and Miller are accused of withholding a statement made by Jose Padilla, the man in the wheelchair, that was "inconsistent" with what he previously told police about where the killing took place, Ravitz said.
That evidence was not turned over to defense counsel, Ravitz said.
Padilla is in a nursing home and did not testify during Thompson's trial. Prosecutors instead used a written statement from Padilla that claimed he said the stabbings were in the street.
That statement was read to the jury.
Padilla was interviewed by investigators from the district attorney's office and the public defender's office after the trial. At that time, he told them the stabbings occurred in the driveway of Thompson's house.
Prater said Wednesday the joint investigation confirmed the witness made a statement to prosecutors that was "materially inconsistent" with his original statement to Oklahoma City police.
"The substance of the inconsistent statement was not disclosed to defense counsel," Prater said in his written statement. "The assistant district attorneys allowed defense counsel to stipulate to the witness's testimony without including the subsequent inconsistent statement.
"Finally, in their closing arguments, the assistant district attorneys argued that the witness' stipulated (or agreed upon) testimony corroborated other trial testimony."
The statement, Prater said, was "potentially exculpatory," or favorable to the defense.
Ravitz said the statement withheld from Thompson's attorneys would have supported his self-defense claim.
"This was a very close case, and this type of evidence could have tipped the verdict in the defendant's favor," Ravitz said.

FTA Plans To Lobby Political Conferences
Calls for greater and longer-term infrastructure planning and investment
UK - A leading transport group has called on politicians not to shy away from infrastructure investment because of the recession. The Freight Transport Association (FTA) has said that, by building a more efficient transport network, politicians could help rebuild the UK economy and help meet Britain's climate change ambitions.
The FTA, which represents over 14,000 members operating across all modes of transport, will be taking this message to the party conferences with a view to influencing manifestos ahead of next year's General Election.
James Hookham, FTA's director of policy, said:
"Having a transport network that's fit for purpose is not an optional extra for any country looking to have a successful economy. Every industry relies upon transport, whether it's getting goods to market or simply ensuring there's paper for the photocopier, but congestion, whether it's on roads or on the rails, not only impedes Britain's ability to compete, but can also increase our carbon emissions."
Rather than a full-frontal road building programme, FTA is urging politicians to take a more intelligent approach, making full use of the infrastructure already available and encouraging greater interchange between the different modes. Moving goods between road and rail or rail and sea can be challenging and costly, yet these are areas where, with the right political backing and investment, Britain's trading position could be much improved.
Hookham explained:
"We support the calls from politicians to put more freight on rail, not least to free up road capacity for those businesses that have no choice but to use them. However, politicians seem less enthusiastic when it comes to supporting the building of more rail interchanges or even boosting rail access for freight by bringing down access charges. Britain's economic future needs them to put their might where their mouths are."
FTA has been encouraged by recent forward-thinking announcements on infrastructure – such as electrification of the Great Western rail line – but remains concerned that politicians are still loath to embrace further investment in case they are unable to reap the political benefits.
Hookham concluded:
"Serious infrastructure investment and improvement cannot be sorted out in four or five years, which tends to be the focus of most politicians, who always have their eye on the next General Election. Instead of wondering whether it will be they or their political opponents who get to cut the ribbon on an improved stretch of road or new port, they need to be thinking about the ongoing economic interests of the country."
