List of SNL's 40th Anniversary Special guest stars
The Saturday Night Live 40th Anniversary Special is a three-and-a-half-hour prime-time special that aired on Sunday, February 15, 2015, on NBC, celebrating Saturday Night Live's 40th year on the air, having premiered on October 11, 1975, under the original title NBC's Saturday Night.[1][2] This special generated 23.1 million viewers, becoming NBC's most-watched prime-time, non-sports, entertainment telecast (excluding Super Bowl lead-outs) since the Friends series finale in 2004.[3][4][5][6] It is the third such anniversary special to be broadcast, with celebratory episodes also held during the 15th and 25th seasons.
The special was preceded on NBC by an hour-long SNL 40th Red Carpet Live, hosted by Matt Lauer, Savannah Guthrie, Carson Daly and Al Roker, who interviewed past hosts, current and previous cast members, and musical legends who had previously performed on the show.[7]

The special followed the format of a typical Saturday Night Live episode, extended to 3½ hours instead of the usual 1½, and included a cold open, a monologue, sketches, a short film, commercial parodies, and musical performances. The sketches, most of which were revivals of sketches that appeared over the show's run, made reference to the show and its four decades on air, with the original cast members who appeared in those sketches reprising their roles along with numerous guest stars. A handful of commercial parodies, including "Colon Blow" and "Mom Jeans", reran as they originally appeared on the show.
Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake appeared in the cold open, performing a "History of Rap"-esque musical number referencing famous sketches from the show's history. Rachel Dratch and Molly Shannon appeared as Debbie Downer and Mary Katherine Gallagher, respectively.
Steve Martin performed the opening monologue, with featured appearances from Tom Hanks, Alec Baldwin, Melissa McCarthy, Chris Rock, Peyton Manning, Miley Cyrus, Billy Crystal, Paul McCartney, and Paul Simon, with the latter two performing an abbreviated duet of "I've Just Seen a Face".

Guest appearances[edit]
This special assembled together a large list of current and former cast members, hosts, and musical acts from throughout the show's forty seasons.[2][9] Show creator and executive producer Lorne Michaels stated that every host and most musical guests were invited, plus any cast member and writer who had been on the show more than a year.[10] Ultimately, over a hundred in all were then confirmed to appear.[11]

Production[edit]
Of those former hosts, musical guests, former cast members and writers invited, the people who sent back an RSVP were then considered to be written for.[19] Dan Aykroyd was asked by Lorne Michaels about doing a "Bass-O-Matic" sketch, while Mike Myers and Dana Carvey requested to reprise Wayne's World.[20] Michaels stated that since different generations of former cast members were coming, they wanted to do sketches featuring mashups between different casts.[21]
Writer Jim Downey conceived the idea of Nick the Lounge Singer singing the theme to Jaws way back in the 1970s, but was never able to pull it off during Bill Murray's tenure on SNL. They were unsure if they could obtain the necessary copyright clearance to show footage of Jaws on a monitor in the background until they realized that, since NBC had already acquired the rights to Jaws with its purchase of Universal Pictures in 2002, they could just ask director Steven Spielberg, who was in attendance.[20]
Eddie Murphy was originally asked to play Bill Cosby in the "Celebrity Jeopardy!" sketch, but refused.[22]
Nora Dunn was asked to participate in the musical medley as Liz Sweeney, but refused because Jan Hooks (the other Sweeney Sister) died.[23]
Marketing and promotion[edit]
A 15-second spot premiered during the Super Bowl XLIX broadcast and – along with two other 15-second clips – was uploaded on to the official Saturday Night Live YouTube page.[24][25][26] While the clips promoted appearances by Jon Hamm and Paul Rudd, neither of these occurred during the live show.[26] Numerous articles, features and interviews were published in the weeks prior to the broadcast.
VH1 Classic aired a 19-day marathon of SNL-related programming that ended on the day of the special, featuring notable episodes in a reverse chronological order (alongside theme blocks focusing on specific cast members, and films featuring them), concluding with the original series premiere.[27][28]
Ratings[edit]
The special gained 23.1 million viewers, becoming NBC's most-watched prime-time, non-sports, entertainment telecast (excluding Super Bowl lead-outs) since the Friends series finale in 2004.[3][4][5][6]

Irritable bowel syndrome or IBS is a widespread condition that involves recurrent abdominal pain, diarrhea, or constipation. It is associated with anxiety, depression, stress, or former infection of the intestines. It is a functional gastrointestinal disorder or FGID and a disorder of the gut-brain axis, which is caused by food allergy or intolerance, stress, hormones, and illnesses like gastroenteritis.
As per the International Foundation for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (IFFGD), pain or discomfort in the abdomen stands as the key sign or symptom of irritable bowel syndrome. The symptoms of the gastrointestinal disease is related to a person's bowel habits and one may notice a change in the frequency and consistency of stools, such as in diarrhea or constipation, are also linked to pain.
According to the publication, the typical features of irritable bowel syndrome are usually identifiable by a physician; thus, the most essential step in the treatment and management of the symptoms of the disease is to have a consult with a doctor for a confirmed diagnosis of the disease.
Aside from bowel movement pattern changes, other symptoms include bloating and excess gas, mucus in stools, and pain, according to Web MD. As per the publication, the pain felt is relieved through having a bowel movement and it is relevant to the frequency of doing so. Also, the pain is also associated to the change in the appearance or consistency of the stools.
Since there are no anatomical anomalies in the intestines in irritable bowel syndrome, some people may believe that the symptoms are just psychological; however, the feelings of pain, bloating, and discomfort are real.
According to Web MD, treatment for irritable bowel syndrome is dependent to the symptoms types on person has, their severity, and the manner they affect one's daily activities. Therefore, it is assumed that there is no single type of treatment works for everyone with irritable bowel syndrome.
Non-pharmacological management for irritable bowel syndrome includes limiting caffeine and alcohol, as well as reducing fatty food intake. Foods like beans, cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli are gas-forming foods, so they are avoided to help alleviate bloating. For those who are suffering from constipation, one may increase his fiber intake while those who are suffering from diarrhea should limit dairy products, artificial sweeteners including xylitol or sorbitol, and fruits. Other steps in irritable bowel syndrome management include doing regular exercise, quitting smoking, taking medications for cramping, and reducing stress because it triggers symptoms.
Cases of irritable bowel syndrome that are unresolved by non-pharmacological management may necessitate medications. With the discomfort brought about by irritable bowel syndrome, it is essential for one to consult a physician for assessment and medical advice.

Flare-ups Fueling Fears During Pregnancy? Stop In The Name Of Psoriasis!
By Patricia Olney, MS, CGC, Genetic Counselor & Teratogen Information Specialist, MotherToBaby Georgia
Emily's call to MotherToBaby came in late at night. Her voicemail message sounded a bit garbled, almost as if she had been crying. I returned her call the next day and heard her anxious voice say, "My psoriasis flared up last week…it's been several years. I'm really worried because I just found out I'm pregnant." I replied calmly, "Emily, I'm glad you called MotherToBaby for information. We care about you and your baby!"
How did Emily find me? I'm a pregnancy risk specialist at MotherToBaby, which is a service of the Organization of Teratology Information Specialists (OTIS). MotherToBaby provides FREE, up-to-date, evidence-based information about exposures during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Exposures may include prescription or over-the-counter medications, chemicals in the environment, alcohol, illicit drugs, and viral or maternal illnesses, like psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. After spending a lot of time searching the Internet for answers to her questions, a frustrated Emily found our website and our toll-free phone number and I was able to provide her with the information she needed.
Psoriasis is a life-long skin disease, but symptoms can come and go. The most common is chronic plaque psoriasis, the type Emily was diagnosed with at the age of 14. Emily described her life since being diagnosed as an emotional rollercoaster. As a teenager, she was self-conscience about how she looked, and often felt depressed. In college she studied by herself and avoided social gatherings. It wasn't until she met her future husband that she began feeling more in control of her life. He helped her find a specialist in dermatology with experience in treating psoriasis. After trying a variety of treatments, a combination of topical corticosteroids, moisturizers, and medications helped to control her symptoms. Compared with other family members, she described the severity of her psoriasis as mild to moderate. In her late twenties, she had several flare ups which often required medication or UVB phototherapy.
During Emily's first pregnancy, she told me her psoriasis improved, and she was hoping for the same during her next pregnancy. But the week before calling me, Emily had worked long hours on a project with a tight deadline. She came home late in the evenings, feeling stressed and discouraged. By the end of the week, she noticed the all too familiar red, scaly plaques on her elbows, knees and scalp.
The evening Emily called, she had taken a home pregnancy test. She and her husband planned to have another child, but were surprised how easy it was to conceive. This time, however, she was not prepared to face the possibility of a psoriasis flare up during the first few weeks of pregnancy. I reassured her that she was not alone, and many women face the same uncertainty with pregnancy.
So what can a woman with psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis do to prepare for a healthy pregnancy?
Every woman who is planning pregnancy should avoid drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes, reduce stress, exercise, eat a healthy diet, and take prenatal vitamins with folic acid. In some woman with psoriasis, alcohol, cigarettes or stress may trigger a flare up or aggravate her disease.
Approximately 30% of individuals with psoriasis will develop psoriatic arthritis, characterized by pain and swelling in the joints. Psoriatic arthritis can be a side effect of psoriasis that's triggered by an interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Medications similar to those that treat psoriasis can improve psoriatic arthritis as well (1).
Women who require medication to treat their psoriasis/psoriatic arthritis should discuss pregnancy planning with their healthcare provider. Some treatments may require a period of time to clear from the body before conception, and certain medications should be avoided during pregnancy.
Will psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis go into remission during pregnancy?
This can be hard to predict, and it varies from person to person and even from pregnancy to pregnancy. In approximately two-thirds of pregnant women who have psoriasis, their psoriasis symptoms spontaneously improved during pregnancy due to the increase of estrogen hormones. Others, however, reported that their symptoms got worse during pregnancy. In addition, inflammatory flare-ups can occur 1-2 weeks after delivery (2). If your psoriasis symptoms get worse during your pregnancy or after you deliver, be sure to talk with your doctor. In 2012, the National Psoriasis Foundation published guidelines for treating psoriasis during pregnancy and lactation (3). For example, caution is advised when applying topical steroids to the breast to avoid passing the medication to the baby while nursing.

After our call, Emily felt a lot more confident that she was on the right track to having a healthy pregnancy. However, her fear over how a psoriasis flare could affect her pregnancy was quickly followed by questions about how her psoriasis could be safely treated during pregnancy.

Today's reading is Psalm 44. Together with Psalms 42 & 43 they form a common prayer of "God why have you forgotten us?" Why indeed, is the common cry of our hearts too.
Vs 1-8 recall Israel's past and the Lord being with them in might as they defeated their enemies. They rightly did not boast in their bow or sword (even though they used them to great effect) but they boasted in the Lord for what he did and praised his name.
Vs 9-16 describes their situation now. They feel God has left them, they have suffered defeat and been shamed before their enemies. At this point, if we are doing a bible study we usually look for the sins of idolatry, self reliance, ignorance of the Lord and his decrees..and as a consequence the punishment in military defeat. And most of the time we'd be right! BUT NOT THIS TIME.
Vs 17-22 declares that they think have not been disloyal to the Lord at all. Either they are misguided and ignorant of their sin or their claim is true.
This is where we too find it difficult. We ask the question, Why do "bad things happen to good people?" or we may find harsh comfort in the declaration that "s**t just happens" as some would say. Both seem to rob the Lord of his power and benevolence to change the situation. We too would be correct to search our hearts diligently and soberly and look for the thing (SIN) we may have done for us to be in the position we are in. But like Israel we might well come to the same conclusion: "God where are you and why is this happening?" Paul quotes verse 22 in Rom 8:36 applying it to the reality of the current Christian community.
Resting in and crying out for God's unfailing love is a much better response than concluding that "s**t just happens" don't you think?

Badass Ladies in History: Nellie Bly
Hello, everyone, and welcome to June's Badass Ladies in History! This month I wanted to highlight a badass lady who was suggested by one of our readers: Mikaila Cober from Ontario, Canada! Mikaila, thank you so much for the suggestion, and I hope to do this badass lady some justice this month!
Nellie Bly was born Elizabeth Cochran on May 5, 1864, in Cochran's Mill, PA, to Michael and Mary Jane Cochran. The town was actually named after Michael, who was a landowner and town judge. Growing up, Nellie was always surrounded by a large family. Her father had ten children from a previous marriage, and Michael and Mary Jane had a total of five children together. Nellie was always incredibly independent, and she decided to set herself apart by adding an "e" to her last name, renaming herself Elizabeth Cochrane.
In 1870, the Cochran family was dealt a very heavy blow when Michael died without leaving a will, thus leaving the family with no legal claim to his estate. Elizabeth stepped up to the plate to help and support her now single mother, enrolling herself into the Indiana Normal School to study to become a teacher. But, due to financial constraints the family was experiencing, Elizabeth had to leave the school so that she and her family could move to Pittsburgh, where they ran a boarding house.
Around the time Elizabeth was 18 years old, she started to receive attention from an editor at a local newspaper, the Pittsburgh Dispatch, after she wrote a scathing rebuttal to a sexist column they had published called "What Girls Are Good For." The writer of the article believed that women were only suited for domestic duties and wrote that the working woman was a "monstrosity." After reading this, Elizabeth wrote in under the pseudonym "Lonely Orphan Girl," and her response was so good that George Madden, the managing editor, put out an ad in the newspaper asking for "Lonely Orphan Girl" to reveal her true identity so he could hire her. Elizabeth was offered a full-time writing position at the Pittsburgh Dispatch, and there she was given the pen-name she is most famous for, Nellie Bly, after the popular Stephen Foster song "Nelly Bly." It's said that her editor misspelled Nelly with an "ie," and the mistake stuck for the rest of Nellie's career.
Nellie's early work consisted of articles enlightening her audience on the negative consequences of sexist ideologies and the plight of the working woman. After Nellie's work became extremely limited by her editors, who wanted her to write for the "Women's Pages," Nellie pushed to become a foreign correspondent in Mexico. She got her wish, and at the age of 21 she spent six months in Mexico reporting on current events and the culture and customs of the Mexican people. One of Nellie's last reports was on the wrongful imprisonment of a journalist who was very critical of the Mexican government. After reporting on the journalist's imprisonment, the government got word of Nellie's report and had her expelled from the country. After her return to the Pittsburgh Dispatch, Nellie was still pressured to write for the women's pages, so she quickly resigned after her editors still would not give her legitimate assignments.
In 1887, Nellie moved to New York, where she spent her first four months being rejected by every newspaper in town. Nellie didn't take the rejection lying down, though. After being penniless for those four months, she eventually pushed her way into the managing editor's office of Joseph Pulitzer's newspaper, the New York World.
The New York World quickly hired her for undercover investigative work, and her first assignment was to report on the conditions and experiences of patients at Blackwell Island's Women's Lunatic Mental Asylum. Nellie feigned insanity so she could get behind the walls of the infamous asylum, where it was rumored to have dreadful living conditions. After she was admitted, Nellie dropped the guise of insanity altogether and began her work. She experienced firsthand the conditions of the asylum that included, but were not limited to, physical abuse by the staff, gruel broth, frigid baths, spoiled food, and waste all around the eating quarters. Patients who were considered dangerous were tied together by ropes, and when Nellie would speak to the patients, it was clearly evident that they were just as sane as she was. Once she revealed to the doctors and nurses that she was sane and was actually an undercover reporter, they refused to let her go, and the editor at the New York World had to request her release.
After being let out of the asylum, Nellie went to work on her exposé. Her exposé concerning the conditions of Blackwell's Island Mental Asylum was a major success, so much so that an official investigation was launched, resulting in several charges against New York City's Department of Public Charities & Corrections. Bly even assisted with the investigation, and her input was used for reformative action within the asylum and the department altogether. The changes to the way the asylum was run resulted in an $850,000 budget increase to the Department of Public Charities & Corrections, and Nellie's undercover work was the catalyst that eventually shut down Blackwell's Island Mental Asylum for good. Nellie's experience and exposé was turned into a book called Ten Days in a Madhouse, in which she chronicles her time on the island.
Nellie's column on the mental asylum resulted in lasting fame for her investigative work, but in 1888 she became an international celebrity when she decided to emulate Jules Verne's book Around the World in Eighty Days. Her journey around the world was reported through telegraph and resulted in an influx of newspaper sales, seeing as everyone around the world — literally — wanted to keep track of Nellie's journey. Nellie ended up beating the 80-day time limit, making it back to New York in 72 days, 6 hours, 11 minutes, and 14 seconds.
In a surprising move, Nellie decided to retire from reporting in 1895 and married millionaire industrialist Robert Seamen, who was 73 years old; Nellie was 31. The marriage was happy, but Robert passed away ten years after they married. Nellie stepped up after her husband's death and took over his business, the Iron Clad Manufacturing Company, where milk cans, barrels, and other steel products were manufactured. While running the business, Nellie even patented a milk can of her own design. Sadly, though, due to bankruptcy, Nellie had to shut down the company. After the loss, Nellie returned to her first love, journalism, and in 1920 she began working for the New York Journal. Although she never regained the fame of her investigative work of the late 1880s, she was still incredibly active as a working journalist until her death on January 27, 1922. She died of pneumonia at the age of 58.
Although Nellie wasn't the first female reporter, she does stand out as an important milestone for female writers who dared to not be limited to the society pages of newspaper publications. Nellie fought for legitimate work that dealt with the nitty-gritty experiences of a world that was deemed unsuitable for a woman writer at the time. During her time as a journalist, she worked incredibly hard to expose injustice and corruption, specifically the injustices dealt against her fellow woman. She was never persuaded to take her "rightful place" in a world that wanted to restrict her to suitable "women's work." Because of her determination to succeed and overcome all odds, she helped widen the door for women journalists who wanted to report the real news rather than be complacent and unfulfilled within the confines of the newspaper's society pages.
So, three cheers to Nellie Bly! Her investigative work and her unyielding persistence to be recognized as a legitimate reporter is something to be admired and shared with everyone!

New LeBron Trainer styled similarly to last year's "Dunkman" LeBron 8 P.S.
When LeBron James isn't going to work in his signature models on the court, you can usually catch him in a pair of Air Max runners off of it. In the past, we've seen several exclusive Air Max make-ups for James, including Dunkman-themed 90s. The popular concept was recently used again on another Air Max, but this particular shoe was pulled from the brand's training range.
Styled similarly to last year's "Dunkman" LeBron 8 PS, LeBron's Air Trainer 1.3 Max Breathe features a white and silver Hyperfuse-constructed upper. Open-hole mesh panels provides ventilation on the toebox and sides. Electric Green provides the familiar "Dunkman" color pop on the upper eyelets, various branding points and 360-Max Air bag.
Like other LBJ Maxes we've seen in the past, these will most likely remain exclusive. Would you pick up a pair if they dropped?


To view the neighborhood website for Chadwick Place, click here.
To view the restrictions for Chadwick Place, phase 1 (which is pretty much identical to phase 2), click here.
Chadwick Place and Chadwick Estates are two very popular subdivisions. These subdivisions typically have homes starting around the $400K range and go up from there. It's located just south of War Memorial / Route 150 just off of Koerner Rd. There are many wooded lots around the sides of the subdivisions while some of the homes back up to the Polo fields of Weaver Farm. The size of the homes starts around 2,800 square feet and the covenants call for a generous amount of brick on the exterior. Chadwick Place has a Peoria mailing address, is in the city of Peoria, and the Dunlap School District. It is located one mile from the Shoppes at Grand Prairie and interstate access. As such, it is only 10 minutes from downtown Peoria. We not only work in this neighborhood-we have also been fortunate to call it home! We lived here for a few years before building our current home. In fact, we have lived in quite a few of the Dunlap area subdivisions (about 11 moves throughout the area in the last 20 years) and love the easy access to downtown, dining, entertainment, and shopping. It's also only 1/4 mile away from Sommer Place Park-which offers a number of park district activities year round including basketball, tennis, soccer, playgrounds, walking trails, a fishing pond, baseball, and a skateboard park. Chadwick Place was the first subdivision of the two Chadwicks. By the time Chadwick Place was about half completed, Chadwick Estates got on the planning books and followed shortly after. Each subdivision has their own home owners association and both subdivisions are 100 percent complete. One question we get often is "If a home has a Peoria mailing address, is there any chance that the school district might change from Dunlap to District 150 (the Peoria school district)?" This is not a possibility. Once an area is determined to be in a specific school boundary, it will remain in that districts boundary for good. This is made a little more confusing because many of the public home search sites show this area as being in the District 150 school district, which is not the case. It shows up this way because those sites only show the schools that are closest in proximity to the neighborhoods. Chadwick Place and Chadwick Estates both go to Ridgeview Elementary School (Dunlap school off of Radnor Road), Dunlap Valley Middle Schoo,l and Dunlap High School. There are many beautiful homes throughout the two subdivisons and it's a wonderful address to come home to.

Songjiang battery project, Shanghai, China
静坐活动
示威活动
抗议活动
Love green Shanghai, no pollution!
Plans for a lithium battery plant in Songjiang in the outskirts of Shanghai were cancelled following the protests of concerned residents
As a subsidiary of Hefei Guoxuan High-tech Power Energy Co. Ltd., Shanghai Guoxuan New Energy Co., Ltd was established on 8 December, 2011. On 17 May, 2012, it successfully secured the No. v-40 bid for 140 mu (about 9.33 ha) land in Songjiang district at 71 million yuan. [1] A lithium ion battery factory was planned to be built on this plot in the Songjiang Industrial Park in Xiaokunshan town, according to a press release the industrial park issued in August 2012. [2]
The total investment size for the battery plant was about 1 billion yuan with an annual output of 200 million ampere-hours of battery cells and an annual output of 500 million ampere-hours of battery packs, which would have turn it into the largest battery producer in East China after its completion. [3] This project was in line with the industrial development orientation of Shanghai and Songjiang District. After the completion of the project, it would have played an important role in promoting the formation of a new energy vehicle production chain in Songjiang. In the three key components for the EIC (Electrical Impedance Characteristics) system - battery, motor and electric control system products, battery production is mostly needed in Shanghai, which explains why the project was strongly supported by the government. [1]
Different from the local government's concern about the structure of the industry, local residents in Songjiang were more concerned about whether the new energy driven automobile industry would leave them clean water and air. Some citizens questioned that the plant was next to the riverside, which would risk the water quality of the Songjiang district as well of Shanghai.[4] In September and November 2012, the brief Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report for the project by the Shanghai Research Institute of Chemical Industry (SRICI) was publicized for 10 days respectively, after which, a public opinion survey was conducted by the SRICI with 150 questionnaires. There were 34 residential communities, a kindergarten and three rivers within three kilometers of the foreseen factory site, according to a statement issued in November on Shanghai Environment Online, a website run by the State Environmental Protection Administration and the Shanghai Environmental Protection Bureau. [2] The evaluation found the project would cause very little pollution to the air and water. The final EIA report was submitted to the Environmental Protection Bureau of Songjiang District on 28 December 2012 and was approved on 14 January 2013.
Despite the official environmental evaluation that claimed the project would cause little air or water pollution, residents still were highly concerned about potential environmental and health impacts. Many residents participated in the Green Ribbon Action (绿丝带行动)[5], online activism already began to build at the beginning of April 2013, resulting in sporadic protests in the city. On 19 April 2013, a press conference was held by the Songjiang Government and Shanghai Guoxuan to communicate with the public and the media, saying that the factory would only produce lithium cells and conduct final assembly of the batteries, but would not be permitted to produce the anode and cathode parts. [6]On 21 April, 6 residents were invited to come to the Hefei headquarters and the factory of Guoxuan to conduct on-the-spot visits to understand the company's pollution treatment capabilities. At the same time, the company publicly promised that the construction and production process will consciously accept the supervision of the environmental protection department, the public and its entrusted third parties. If there would be any violation, the company would immediately and unconditionally suspend its operation. [7]
However, after several rounds of communication, it still failed to gain the trust of the residents. They believed that as long as Guoxuan built a factory in Songjiang, pollution would be inevitable.
On May 11, about 1,000 Shanghai people held a rally to protest against the project's settling in Songjiang. Protesters gathered on Zhongshan Road, Songjiang District with banners stating, "I love Songjiang and oppose pollution." and "Resolutely oppose Guoxuan battery factory to be settled in Songjiang". Many people wore T-shirts against the construction of polluting factory patterns, and some wore masks. Large deployment of police dispersed people who gathered on the street. This was the third mass protest against the planned factory. [8] SinaWeibo was censoring searches for "Songjiang Battery Factory" during the protests. [9]
On 15 May 2013, Shanghai Guoxuan announced that the company decided to take back all the investment in the Songjiang project, while the land will be returned to the government and no compensation was demanded. [10]
The project has upset many and its cancellation gave people a sigh of relief, "Everybody is texting the news, and there are plans for a celebration," "We are delighted with the company's decision because we love Songjiang and we want a safe and clean environment." [2]

This page lists the chart runs for songs called "Ramona" in order of success. This list combines cover versions and distinct songs that happen to share the same title.
If, alternately, you are looking for songs which have the word "Ramona" somewhere in the title a better alternative would be to look up the word in the site index for r.
Was Ramona the No. 1 song on July 21, 1926?
The variety of different charts published by Billboard make the definition of which record was "Number One" on any date before 1940 a difficult one to decide.
However, given the fact that the earliest chart entry for this song was 1927 (in France) and that it did not get into the Billboard chart until 1928, we would have to say the answer is no.
Ramona was NOT the No. 1 song in 1926.
If you are asking about 1928 it is possible, but you'd need to look at the nearest published edition.
Please could I get the sheet music words to this song.

Express stun Vees in OT; sweep weekend series
November 23, 2013, PENTICTON, BC (ISN) –The Penticton Vees were better on Saturday but the still couldn't solve Gordie Defiel and the Coquitlam Express. Bo Pieper scored the game-winner on a partial breakaway in double-overtime, as the Express stunned the Vees 2-1 at the SOEC.
With the win, the Express take both games of the weekend home-and-home series and snap a three-game losing streak on the road. Despite the loss, the Vees move into second in the Interior Division leap-frogging the Merritt Centennials in the process.
After being tossed from Friday's contest, John Saunders made the most of his return to the line-up Saturday, as the Express rear-guard opened the scoring midway through the first. The puck was put up to Saunders, who then worked his way across the blue-line to his left before flipping a wrist-shot towards the goal. The shot had eyes for the back of the net, as it found its way through a crowd and handcuffed Hunter Miska at 11:06.
Minutes before Saunders scored, Miska made an eye-catching save off a tip by Corey Mackin. Adam Rockwood broke down the right-wing on an odd-man rush before spotting out Mackin at the back-post. Miska lunged to his right and got his pad down on the redirect attempt.
After a less than stellar opening period, the Vees turned things around in the second period and cranked up the pressure. The Vees peppered the Coquitlam net with 12 shots but couldn't solve the riddle that was Gordie Defiel. Dating back to the second period of Friday's contest, Defiel had kept the Vees off the scoreboard in the last four periods, stopping all 33 shots steered his way.
The Vees didn't fold and their perseverance paid off late in the third period when they finally got a puck past Defiel. With less than five minutes left, Patrick Sexton threw a pass across to Alex Coulombe at the right-point, and the defenseman's shot appeared to glance off of Matt Berry's skate and past Defiel at 15:46. Anthony Conti was credited with the goal, his eighth, as he was jousting with Berry in front of the Express net.
For the fourth time in the Vees last seven home games, the game needed overtime to decide a winner. The Four-on-four period didn't solve anything and the two teams needed a fifth period to produce a winner. However, three-on-three overtime didn't lack controversy.
Travis Blanleil let go a one-timer from the right-circle that ramped off an Express defender's stick and up and over Defiel. Cody DePourcq, standing at the top of the crease, got to the trickling puck and shoved it across the goal-line. The referee immediately waved-off the goal citing "unintentional goaltender interference," on DePourcq, which the referee deemed prevented Defiel from making a save on the play.
A short while after the controversial no goal, the Express manufactured the game-winner off the rush. Two Vees skaters got stuck on the boards in the Express end, allowing Bo Pieper to dart down the ice on a partial breakaway. Pieper broke down the right-wing and wired a wrist-shot over Miska's glove before crashing into the Vees puck-stopper; Pieper's 13th and the game-winner at 2:21.
FINAL SCORE: 2-1 (2OT) Express
Power-Plays: Vees 0-3 Express 0-1
Three Stars: 1) Bo Pieper 2) Gordie Defiel 3) Hunter Miska
The Vees record slips to 15-6-1-3 and their overtime record drops to 2-3-1 in the loss. However, the single point they picked up in the OT loss, combined with Merritt losing in regulation in Surrey, moves the Vees one spot up to second in the Interior Division; one point back of Vernon and they have three games in hand on the Vipers.
Saturday marked the first time since September 20th & 25th the Vees have dropped back-to-back games. Their now 9-1-0-2 at home and have just one win in their last four.
The Vees look to bust the slump on Tuesday, when they pay a visit to the West Kelowna Warriors; puck drop from Royal LePage Place is 7pm. The Vees are back on home ice on Friday, November 29th when they host the Langley Rivermen, who occupy second place in the Mainland Division. The Vees and Rivermen skated to a 1-1 tie back on October 19th in Langley. Tickets are available at the Valley First Box Office at the SOEC, or online at www.valleyfirsttix.com

Q: Cannot update a component while rendering a different component when using QueryRender and React context I am having an issues I can't seem to work out. When I use the QueryRenderer HOC component from relay and render it as children via a react context I get the following error:
Cannot update a component (`Customers`) while rendering a different component (`Search `). To locate the bad setState() call inside `Search`, follow the stack trace as described in https://reactjs.org/link/setstate-in-render

My context and component are very simple. As soon as I replace the QueryRenderer the problem goes away, so I am 100% certain this HOC component is causing the issue.
//context
const SearchProvider = ({ getVariables, query, children }) => {
  const [searchTerm, setSearchTerm] = useState()
  return (
    <SearchContext.Provider value={{ searchTerm, setSearchTerm }}>
      <Search getVariables={getVariables} query={query}>
        {children}
      </Search>
    </SearchContext.Provider>
  )
}

//component causing the error
const Search = ({ getVariables, query, setRetry, children }) => {
  const { searchTerm } = useSearch()
  return (
    <QueryRenderer
      environment={environment}
      query={query}
      variables={{ ...getVariables(searchTerm) }}
      render={({ error, props, retry }) => children({ error, props, retry })}
    />
  )
}

//and for context the component that is rendering the SearchProvider component
const Customers = () => {
  const getVariables = searchTerm => {
    //work out and return variables
  }
  return (
    <>

Customers

      <SearchProvider query={query} getVariables={getVariables}>
        {({ error, props }) => {
          if (error) return <Error />
          if (!props) return <Loading />
          return (

              {props.users_connection.edges.map(({ node }) => (
                <Customer key={node.userId} customer={node} />
              ))}

          )
        }}
      </SearchProvider >
    </>
  )
}

Any suggestions or tips are greatly appreciated. For now I am simply living with the error. I haven't noticed it impacting performance or introducing any bugs.
I have tried moving the QueryRenderer component directly in the SearchProvider component and it didn't make any difference.
