What kind of respect are we talking about?
Jan 17th, 2007 | By Ophelia Benson
Category: Notes and Comment Blog
We keep hearing about public objections to or fears about the creation of human-animal embryos for research purposes, but the objections and fears that are cited are, frankly, rather pathetic. They also seem to be very much in the minority. In fact it looks as if the news media are creating and inflating these objections and fears, more than they are reporting on their existence. Oh, well that's a surprise, that's never happened before. Surely?
The Indy offers some background, including on the opposition.
There are many pressure groups and religious organisations who have voiced their opposition on the grounds that it is unethical or immoral to mix germ cells from humans and animals to create potentially viable embryos. They believe that it undermines respect for human life, and some believe it is also demeaning to animals.
And…that's it, at least as far as this article goes. It undermines 'respect,' it's 'demeaning.' Sounds familiar, doesn't it – sounds like the wack objections to gay marriage: it undermines respect for the institution of marriage. How and why it does that is never spelled out – what that even means is never spelled out. People who oppose the opposition ask and ask and ask to have the reasoning made plain, but…if they've had much success, the results are being carefully hidden.
Why, exactly, does the creation of a certain kind of egg, which will be destroyed within fourteen days, undermine respect for human life? I want to know. What's the thinking here? That thirteen-day old embryos might end up being dressed up in little outfits and enrolled in school? That they might start marrying people's children? That they'll make all the buses and movie theatres and supermarkets too crowded? That they'll jostle us off the sidewalk and humiliate us? That they'll want to spend the night in our houses and have their horrible unthinkable disgusting squelchy sex right there with us in the next room listening in fear and horror?
That's it, isn't it. It's sex. The many pressure groups and religious organisations are afraid that they will want to have sex with each other where we'll be able to hear; they're afraid they will want to have sex with us. They'll seduce us, they'll lie down on top of us in the night when we're asleep and impregnate us with their horrible hybrid pinkish fibrous mucousy slimy – oh, jesus, help me.
Okay maybe that's not it, maybe I'm being unfair, as usual. But what is it then? What, exactly, is it? What is it about some embryos in a lab at Newcastle or King's College London that causes respect for human life to be undermined? Perhaps it's that potential murderers will, as soon as such embryos exist, no longer think 'No, I mustn't, it would be wrong,' but instead will think 'Hey, there are those little embryos at Newcastle, they have some cow DNA mixed in – not very much, admittedly, but still some, so what is human life worth? Not much, obviously; therefore I will murder that co-worker who gets on my nerves, because why not?' Is that it? Well, if so, could it be that the worry is ever so slightly far-fetched and, as it were, strained? That the likelihood of that looks no more robust than the likelihood of any other random fanciful absurd scenario one could come up with? Maybe the next time I take the 74 bus one of the passengers will decide the existence of tomato paste in tiny cans makes life not worth living, and so get off on Stone Way instead of 40th Street.
Why do pressure groups and religious organisations get to 'voice their opposition' on worthless empty meaningless grounds that way, and be considered a serious and worth-heeding opposition? Talk about undermining respect – they're the ones who undermine respect, if you ask me: they undermine respect for human ability to oppose things for good reasons as opposed to completely factitious whimsical made-up ones. This isn't just messing around, after all! This isn't like old Coke versus new Coke; this is medical research that could cure horrible diseases. What business do people have opposing it for silly frivolous worked-up reasons? It's revolting if you look at it hard enough. Is it just for the sake of the self-righteous glow? The little aura of piety? Well – that's a crappy reason. A crappy, vain, narcissistic, beside the point reason. If we want to fret about respect for human life, why not fret a great deal more about the lives lost or ruined by Parkinson's or Motor Neurone disease than about some mysterious vague unspecified general 'life' that belongs to no one in particular but would be less respected because of those eggs? Respect for human life, indeed. Pull the other one.
You must respect me, it's the law
Superficial respect
If you stop obeying God you go all wrong
The sacred flake of skin
The scriptures of all the major faiths are given respect in this way

Precisely! I agree, and I wish more people did.
I think the religious opposition to hybrid embryos is destined to be far more fierce than the opposition to abortion. Abortion doesn't question the "god-given essence of humanity" in the way human/nonhuman hybrids do. At the least, the craftier theologians will have their work cut out for them: Now that the pope cancelled limbo, does this mean there will be cow-humans in heaven? What will they look like when they are resurrected on the last day?
They will look like tiny little microscopic eggs that moo ever so slightly.

…and that's no bull.
But you might want to elucidate that bit about the tiny cans of tomato paste, life being not worth living, and the 74 bus. Not everyone is familiar with the geography of Seattle. I haven't taken that bus in a while, but if I was going to use the Aurora Bridge for suicidal purposes, I think I'd get off at the southern, higher end. Anyway, seems to me that the 40th St. stop would be closer to it than Stone Way. Of course, if you are talking about some other town, never mind me, just explain what it's about please because now we are curious, or at least I am…
ChrisPer
As is often the case, I think you are a bit over the top about religious involvement in public debate.
Firstly, it is obvious that the churches are traditionally expected to have a say in ethical debates. There is a kind of proxy vote happening where ordinary people seem to think 'Oh I am not too sure about this science stuff; I don't know jack about it but I will look for information in hte media to decide my position.'
Editor says to journalist 'Get me 500 words on science and it better have controversy in it!'
As a result, the journalist goes looking for someone who has anything to say in the 'against' case. They won't find a theologian with an articulate position on gene splicing before deadline, so they grab any talking head in a dog collar and bob's yer uncle.
Its a media beat-up which feeds your personal confirmatory bias, OB. As a result, you rant about strawman christians and have, as far as I can tell, minimal engagement with real ones. Right-wing blogs cherry pick news articles about idiot academics in the same way. Your example teaches me to withhold judgement about idiots in the media, because its almost certainly a beat-up.
OB: "not fret a great deal more about the lives lost or ruined by Parkinson's or Motor Neurone disease than about some mysterious vague unspecified general 'life' that belongs to no one in particular but would be less respected because of those eggs? Respect for human life, indeed. Pull the other one."
Well, my pastor Grandfather died after 20 years of savage oppression by Parkinsons and diabetes. When his beloved, my grandmother got too close to death from cancer to come and see him, he refused food and medication until he died.
Despite his being the kind of Christian you would most despise, his respect for human life was adequate to the day. His concern for others extended to acting for them in all ways in his power while he lived, according to his understanding.
And let us sincerely hope that he walks the Elysian Fields hand-in-hand with his beloved. But private virtue is not the issue here, a priori entitlement to interfere in matters of public policy simply by virtue of 'representing' organised religion is.
The case for excluding the 40% (or 60% or whatever) who are believers from involvement in public policy is apparently based on apoplectic fury at idiots quoted in the media. That emotional response is unbalanced, fed not by engaged knowledge so much as confirmatory bias and editorial selection.
Thus a situation where leftists choose to inform each other that a christian appointee to high office has banned teaching science in Grand Canyon Parks Service tours, and that a christian in charge of environmental matters at Federal level believes that the apocalypse is coming and the environment should be consumed to hasten it. Sorry, those were lies and so is the picture that seems to get you all cross.
But self-righteous anger is SO rewarding. Enjoy.
Chris Whiley
The thing that confuses me about this fuss is the use of the words 'human/animal hybrid'.
I thought humans were animals?
OB: "What kind of respect are we talking about?"
The kind of respect the religious speak of is that of a servant for their master.
It is a synonym for deference. Or possiby obedience.

Wow! Invasion of the Incubi. And some succubi for the hettie blokes out there. What a post! Lovely imagery.
'[T]he churches are traditionally expected to have a say in ethical debates …' – ChrisPer
Yes, they are, aren't they? Why? I remember back in about 1970 being asked by my night news editor on the now-folded Sheffield morning paper to go and get some opinion on the formation of a gay group at the university. 'Get a church view.' What? I refused, and the news editor was OK about it (there was journalists' union clause then, probably still is, about being asked to write something against your conscience). Implicit in this laziness among programme makers and news editors ('grab a vicar, see what he thinks') is that only the church types can comment on ethics.
'The case for excluding the 40% (or 60% or whatever) who are believers from involvement in public policy …' – ChrisPer
Not sure anyone wants to exclude believers, just those who prattle on claiming to be speaking for the believers. I don't mind a teacher who happens to be Christian, but wouldn't want her Christianity to prevail in her teaching of science, for instance. I don't mind a doctor who happens to be a Jedi as long as he keeps his light sabre away from my butt. We'll never exclude believers per se; I don't think that's the point.
They are, but the word 'animal' has the pragmatic sense in common usage of 'non-human animal' in much the same way that 'natural' is often an elision of the idea 'existing in nature but not constructed by humans', which is why it dosn't seem absurd to describe a beaver's dam as 'natural' but not a nuclear reactor.
Chrisper – you have a good point about the media, but I think that since 9/11 generally (and 7/7 specifically in the UK), people are more hysterically sensitive about yet cravenly receptive to any unrepresentative religious minority.
G. Tingey
Nick S is, unfortunately entirely correct.

Cathal Copeland
There are many pressure groups and religious organizations who have voiced their opposition on the grounds that it is unethical or immoral to mix germ cells from humans and animals to create potentially viable embryos. They believe that it undermines respect for human life, and some believe it is also demeaning to animals.
I've never quite understood the fuss either – or at any rate it's one of those ethical issues that I consider isn't worth the effort of investigating very closely. It is one of my moral 'molehills' as opposed to my moral 'hillocks' (capital punishment) or moral 'mountains' (homosexual 'marriage', incestuous 'marriage', etc).
However there is the insoluble problem of life's continuum from embryo to fetus to unborn child to infant. You write:
Why, exactly, does the creation of a certain kind of egg, which will be destroyed within fourteen days, undermine respect for human life?.
Now, step by step, replace 'fourteen days' by 'fifteen days' etc. until you reach 'nine months':
Why, exactly, does the creation of a certain kind of egg, which will be destroyed within nine months, undermine respect for human life?.
That sounds different – in fact, it sounds pretty ghoulish.
Clearly there's a grey area or 'penumbra' between the two extremes of this continuum. Somewhere in between, as one moves from 14 days to 9 months, respect for human life does become undermined.
AJ Milne
Perhaps it's that potential murderers will, as soon as such embryos exist, no longer think 'No, I mustn't, it would be wrong,' but instead will think 'Hey, there are those little embryos at Newcastle, they have some cow DNA mixed in – not very much, admittedly, but still some, so what is human life worth? Not much, obviously; therefore I will murder that co-worker who gets on my nerves, because why not?' Is that it?
Hee hee! And that's exactly what I find myself thinking whenever I read stuff in Nature about such research… Thank you, gawdless scientists, for justifying my mayhem!
(Gleefully heads off to sharpen axe, with standard B-movie spree-killer maniacal gleam in eye…)
Meanwhile, teaching that an alleged all-powerful 'moral authority' doth arbitrarily grass entire nations (or, for that matter, the entire population of the planet save one guy with a boat), and sends people to an eternity of torment for saying mean things about one of his aliases is, apparently, no harm to anyone's conception of the sanctity and dignity of life…
(Yes, it's been said before. A few times. But still, it amuses me.)
ChrisPer,
What are you talking about? Where did I say anything about strawchristians? What I'm taking issue with is the opposition, as phrased in for instance that article in the Independent. Lazy reporting may indeed be part of the problem, just as you indicate, but that's what I'm saying. I think that's your self-confirming bias at work: you see strawchristians where there aren't any.
Oh – that's funny, I wasn't even thinking of the bridge and suicide. The two stops were meant to be just completely random; the first thing that came into my head. Forgot all about the bridge. But as you say, Stone Way would be a silly stop – unless one wanted some good brisk healthful exercise just before killing self. 40th Street would be even worse. No, it was just random.
I should have worked in a reference to the troll and the poor little VW bug…
G Tingey
For the 49 thousandth time, DO NOT USE THAT WORD HERE.
Are you a hostile agent, trying to destroy TPM and B&W?
For the 47 thousandth time, what is at Pharyngula is beside the point; libel laws in the UK are NOT THE SAME as those in the US. Stop reading Pharyngula (and B&W) for a few minutes and look into the libel laws of your own country.
I could just delete every comment you've ever made, you know. It would be easy – the database would find them all for me, and out they'd go. I'll do it, too, if I need to. In fact I'm very tempted to do it right now.
Belatedly, a couple of substantive points.
"Somewhere in between, as one moves from 14 days to 9 months, respect for human life does become undermined."
Well that's why the cutoff is 14 days. So your point is…?
"The case for excluding the 40% (or 60% or whatever) who are believers from involvement in public policy is apparently based on apoplectic fury at idiots quoted in the media."
One, no one is attempting to make such a case (look to your own straw before you set fire to mine, dude). Two, the case for excluding purely religious reasons for opposing medical research or legal equality for gays is not in the least based on apoplectic fury at idiots quoted in the media, it is based on the idea that such reasons should be well-grounded, reasonable, rational, universalizable. I've said that here many times, so your putative explanation is silly.

Cybrids cyberbabe dudes wont be ruling B&Ws cyberspace I see?
Keith McGuinness
OB: "Two, the case for excluding purely religious reasons for opposing medical research or legal equality for gays is…based on the idea that such reasons should be well-grounded, reasonable, rational, universalizable."
This is, of course, EXACTLY the point.
Almost without exception (in my experience), religious "leaders" offer religious arguments during debates on issues like this.
They are entitled (like anyone) to offer such views but they should not be afforded the same status as rational arguments.
"I think you are a bit over the top about religious involvement in public debate."
Actually, ChrisPer, I have to say that I frequently find Radio 4's Thought for The Day commenters, albiet highly 'respected' and mainstream, do also have some considerable clout in Public Policy areas. No strawmen there.
The point is, I asssume, that the cut off point is arbitrarily chosen. Why 14 and not 15 days? Arbitrariness isn't all that scientific.
John M,
That was indeed my point. There is irreducible dimension of subjectivity here and I'm surprised so many otherwise intelligent people seem to overlook it. People will just have to 'agree to differ' as to whether the limit should be 14 days or 27 days or 82 days and six hours and 56 seconds ….
At any rate one should avoid pathologising and demonising people who don't share one's views on this issue.
What a drag these moral debates are — round and round we go, decade after decade, century after century. good guys, bad guys … snakes and ladders, back to square one every time.
All very well, but it's difficult to 'agree to differ' when the people we differ with prevent medical research from going forward on the basis of spurious sentimental unspecified vague 'concerns.' It's difficult and perhaps morally wrong. Why should we just shrug and say 'oh well' when people block medical research for bad stupid reasons? Tell me that's what we should do when you get MND.
Ophelia,
I'm not saying we should just shrug and say 'oh well'. I'm just saying one shouldn't call one's adversaries 'evil' or 'murderous'.They are in my view very mistaken, but being mistaken is not the same as being morally reprehensible.
Cathal,
You said people will just have to 'agree to differ', which amounts to the same thing. You also said the second thing, but don't disown the first – it's just above the second, in case you can't find it. Don't say you're 'just saying' when you said more than that.
As for the substance of the second thing: I disagree, I think at times one should call one's adversaries 'evil' or 'murderous'. One of the times would be when they belong to a group that is traditionally and generally and often unthinkingly considered somehow more moral than the rest of us, when in fact in cases like this they're much less so.
The thing about being mistaken is that that's at least somewhat willful. It's at least partly a product of non-thought, of accepting empty verbiage about 'respect for life' as meaningful and deep and of a higher morality. Armed with this blind word-induced piety, they prevent research that is likely to help cure or alleviate horrible diseases. Their concern about a very abstract and woolly 'respect for life' trumps their respect for the actual lives of actual people with actual diseases. I think that is a very bad thing and should not be treated with knee-jerk respect – hence I think harsh language is useful.
Furthermore – now that I take a look – what are you even talking about? Where did I call anyone either murderous or evil? You mean in comments on a different post, the one on condoms? What's that got to do with this post? And what business do you have making a misleading remark like that?
Cathal, I'm getting very tired of you. You're being trollish. Why don't you take a vacation for awhile.
Cathal Copeland: "People will just have to 'agree to differ' as to whether the limit should be 14 days or 27 days or 82 days and six hours and 56 seconds…"
No, it is NOT a case where we can "agree to differ" because the outcome of these arguments will be a decision about what is, and what is not, permitted.
I think the idea is that "the creation of a certain kind of egg, which will be destroyed within fourteen days" undermines respect for human life because it implies that human life is something that can be created and destroyed at will in the lab, without any regard for its humanity.
Steve, a bunch of cells is NOT a "human life". Under certain, fairly special circumstances, it MAY have the potential to become a human life. That is all.
My view is the exact opposite of yours. I think that treating a bunch of cells as if it were a human life undermines respect for human life.
Keith, the embryos are alive and human. It seems pretty clear that they're human lives.
'Alive' in what sense? 'Human' in what sense?
'Seems' in what sense? 'Pretty' in what sense? 'Clear' in what sense?
It may seem pretty clear to you, but in fact it's all highly contestable. I can demonstrate: it is not in the least clear to me that a microscopic 14 day old egg is alive and human.
Every sperm is alive and, under certain, fairly special circumstances, MAY have the potential to become a human life.
The average healty male produces thousands of sperm every second.
Do you regard these all as "human lives"?
An embryo is further along the long complicated and perilous path that leads to a human life than a sperm, but only just.
OB correctly points out that further discussion of this issue requires clarification of what we mean by the various terms used. It is, for instance, clear that our definitions differ in important ways.
Nonetheless, I stand by my original remarks.
Time for a rousing chorus of 'Every Sperm is Sacred' la la la.
No they are alive and made of human tissue, just like my appendix. To be human life, I would assert that at least a nervous system is needed. I would say this, whilst arguably not sufficient, is certainly necessary.
It may interest you to know that this page is the sole site listed in response to a Google search on the phrase "disgusting squelchy sex".
I just had to check.
So all those sickies idly googling for 'disgusting squelchy sex' will be rushing over here all eager for the treat. How disappointed they will be.
[overcome by squeaks of laughter]
If it's any consolation, the same is true for "tomato paste in tiny cans." You do, however, have some competition for "horrible unthinkable disgusting."
Competition?! It's an outrage! 'horrible unthinkable disgusting' is mine, mine, mine!

Q: Yellow warning triangle in Xcode 9's Create Bot.. window I'm trying to set up continuous integration (CI) in Xcode 9 with it's new built-in Xcode Server functionality. (MacBook Pro, macOS High Sierra)
I've been following various tutorials, such as Tutorial: Continuous Integration with Xcode 9 and FastLane, Xcode Server and Continuous Integration Guide: Configure Bots to Perform Continuous Integration, and a few others.
Everything seems to work fine, till I get to the Product -> Create Bot... step. The window opens with a yellow triangle/exclamation mark warning symbol to the right of the Server dropdown:

The Previous and Next buttons are disabled. Nothing happens if I click on the warning triangle, and there are no other related messages I can see in Xcode or the macOS console.
I performed the same setup on another MacBook Pro running High Sierra and the same version of Xcode 9. There was no triangle on that one, and I was able to select Next and continue the process.
Update: The triangle is present for any project I create. And, I've tried closing/restarting both Xcode and the MacBook Pro.
I've searched repeatedly for things like create bot yellow triangle, create bot warning symbol, xcode 9 continuous integration warning symbol, etc, but found nothing relevant.
Has anybody seen this, and what does it mean/how do I fix it???

A: Ah, the actual problem was that, in Accounts, I used the integration user I had set up. That was incorrect. I needed to put myself or another registered user into the Account section.
Once I added my own user's Name and Password into the Accounts/Xcode Server section, I was able to successfully create a bot.

A: Your Server & Bots option in Xcode Preferences is still not enabled even though you did it earlier.
Re-enable it and this should fix the issue.

Thank you Arun and Jerin for this wonderful opportunity!
NewzHook has always amazed me for driving a web-accessible online portal.
Thank you Gayatri and Ramya.
This strength will help you persevere through the rough patches of life and face each challenge as an invitation to learn.
Sensed a great joy to be part of this fundraising event hosted by Compassionate Hearts Network to support and empower www.deepticentre.com Adoor, Kerala.
Thank you to the Indian community in Boston for making me feel comfortable and meeting a few of you in person whom I was in touch through online all this while was a complete joyride.
Thank you for inviting me, It was also a great moment for me to share my insights on how I whirl with my life and spread awareness.
I believe what we truly treasure cannot be measured and connecting with you both Sindhu chechi and Santhosh yettan is one of the same.
Let her go and she shall fly!
Thanks for all the sweet gestures shown towards me.
I believe every single day is ours and a better tomorrow comes only when we have the willingness to be the change makers!
After all, we're all more than what we're told we are.
Let's gracefully embrace our scars and dare to break barriers and build together inclusive societies for all!
Here is the digital copy of the feature that was published on March edition Vanitha magazine.
Music has been my dearest friend and healer. I vividly remember the days I used to lie on my bed feeling the pain of my broken bones being caressed by the soulful music of A.R. Rahman. I used to wonder if it's too high an expectation to dream of attending his live concert one day.
Time proved me to be lucky and I finally got a chance to experience a live concert by the mastero. To say the least about the concert, I was awestruck.
Full moon just above my head, Bangalore's cold breeze and the magic of the Oscar-winner's mesmerizing fingers on the keyboard accompanied by other top artists stole my heart.
Earlier I had shared one of the best moment (video) that had happened to me at India Inclusion Summit. There were a few priceless moments as well but my mobile lens failed to capture. However, Here are some of the beautiful moments captured (mobile clicks hence clarity isn't great). But I believe it's the people and those moments that make it priceless more than any pixel!
I thank media Mathrubhumi, Asianet News and Manorama Online for featuring my story of the great honour I received recently. As we lack in awareness about the genetic disease I believe these stories will help in creating a change in #India at least in a small way.
Had a wonderful experience at @schneiderelectric on the inclusion of persons with disability. I was able to connect with many and hear some inspiring stories.
With the grace of God, I'm glad to share on the #internationaldisabilityday I have received National Award for Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities, MSJE , 2018 (Role Model Category) by Ministry of Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Government of India. The Award was conferred by Honourable Vice President of India Shri M Venkaiah Naidu.
Though I feel immense joy in receiving the award, what made my day special is the love of these wonderful souls who joined me at the award function. I feel privileged to receive such love and warmth from each one of you. I am glad we managed to capture the moment into this frame. 💕 and gratitude.
Thank you Barkha and team for inviting me to 'We The Women' event. It was a pleasure, being part of it with such wonderful people. I feel extremely happy that I got an opportunity to speak about the rare diseases to a wider audience from various parts of our country and abroad.
It's been four long years I have been waiting for this moment…!
Struggles and challenges have always been my asset. But Like how I always believe in that special power. With gratitude, the mighty strength always gave me the best of best moments in my life. Before the day ends, let me share the joy!
The fun-fun moment photographs I shall share in the following days.
Music always plays a major role in my life, I do not think I would ignore my love for these two songs even after my death (film song) Kalippattamayi Kanmani and Malargal Kaettaen. 😀 Whoo…hoooo!!!! Today after a looooooooooong wait, it happened!
India Inclusion Summit became that special platform for my desire come true.
Thank you, team,… #iis2018 for the day to REMEMBER!
Here is an article, wonderfully written about me by Yesoda Bhargava (team Indian Osteogenesis Imperfecta Foundation IOIF).
I wish to consider this Award as a tribute to my grandparents and all those beautiful souls who were born with the rare disease and is not among us.
I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Government of India for nominating me.
Thank you so much for taking time out to share this and support me on my mission of spreading awareness on rare diseases.
You being an inspiration to many, I am sure this post would reach many and make them aware of conditions such as mine (osteogenesis imperfecta).
I am humbled by your kindness and is always in appreciation of your good work. Wishing you all the best for spreading the light of wisdom.
Thanks once again. I can see the dream of #InclusiveIndia is not far away.
Glad to cover a story from Vaishali's Art-Cart for Unique times online portal.
Is your smartphone an idot box or smart gen gadget?
Delighted to write another article for the www.thedaybreak.in newsletter.
Sharing one of my shy full moment!
For the first time, I was part of YourQuote Open Mics and with all courage, I recited 'Our Own Country' poem. Words are never enough for the support I received from the Team and participates… Thank you!
It's almost like getting the moon on my palm!
Super blessed to have had conquered this moment.
I totally enjoyed being part of the #UnplugWithSadhguru program.
Thanking the Sadhguru Ji, team Isha Foundation and IIM Bangalore for being so nice!
Yes…marching out for more #inclusion!!!!
I am sure most of you would agree with the saying because when my life throws a lot of strange situations, I had to sense every situation sensitively and it is between the situation and space I found the beauty of courage.
Today I'm very much excited to see my good friend Archana taking that rare step of courage to start up an NGO called Indian-Osteogenesis-Imperfecta-Foundation.
It is time for us to speak up, claim our rights and set ourselves free!
Thank you so much team IOIF for the invite, it was lovely to meet few of them again and some the new faces too… Best wishes to the entire team of IOIF!
Sharing one of the drawings gifted to me by Sanjay Kumar, who works at a private company in Palakkad, Kerala. I happened to meet him through Amrithavarshini Charitable Society. I have always seen Sanjay drawing celebrities photos, glad I became one of his choices to draw.
Thank you for featuring about me Creative Cronies, it's a pleasure to be on board with you Cheryl.
Thank you team CADRRE for inviting me to the conference and for giving me the opportunity to talk about the "Love Of My Life" and my journey so far.
As I mentioned before, such organisations and conferences, which are inclusive in nature, boost the confidence of people with disability and their family.
I felt so humbled to meet so many wonderful souls from around the globe. I truly felt honored to have the gift crafted by the kids from #Cadrre. More power to you Vijaya Raghavan uncle!
The staffs/volunteers, I need to say, you are perfect role models for today's youth.
The greatest freedom is the freedom, one gets to surround themselves with those who actually gives you the freedom to be what you are.
Smileys. I went there primarily because I was keen to watch Prathap's and Dinesh's dance. Sometimes life goes beyond our plan and expectation. Apparently, I got the opportunity to meet Vishnu, #Vidhushi, Easwaran and Shanti mam.
I always wanted to meet Shanti mam one day, because rarely one initiative to manage an NGO being inspired by their sibling.
More power to all of you, thank you Mentor Kausalya for the support!!!
Delighted to write a small piece of my belief for the www.thedaybreak.innewsletter.
The 4th edition of BookstalkistMag is out. I thank team BookStalkist for giving me an opportunity to contribute a #poem of mine.
As wishbone day is around the corner, Admin's of Aamrithavarshini Charitable Society had planned a competition within the organization – among us (members).
They had picked 8 members has leaders and each leader had to make a magazine by collecting stories/articles/art etc from their group members. So, this year I'm the leader for members at Trivandrum.
FlY WITH US is the magazine I and my team members created.
First time I'm doing something in a competitive spirit, it was interesting and challenging. Obviously with a lot of blunders too.
Happy to say our magazine won three prizes.

I am not the easiest one to get convinced. But yesterday I had no choice when I got to meet DQ, the one I adored and wished to meet all these years.
Thank you Universe, you kept my trust intact.
I have been complimented by many for my smile and positive energy, latest to the list was DQ himself. But little does he or these people know, I owe it to people like him who has healed me through their work.
Nothing has helped me in my healing process as much as music and movies. And that's why I fail to articulate my joy in meeting my favorite actor.
Thank you so much, DQ chetta for taking out time to meet me. And I am grateful for the support you showed towards my mission of spreading awareness about Osteogenesis Imperfecta, through our NGO Amrithavarshini.
TODAY GOD'S BLESSING WAS PUT-ON TO ME THIS WAY!
My father accompanied me to BLF 2016 (Bangalore Literature Festival) today. I was excited to be able to hear 'Premila Paul in conversation with Aishwaryaa Rajnikanth Dhanush'. Personally, I've always been inspired by the way Aishwarya brings her larger than life stories to the common man. After all who doesn't love listening to RajiniKath stories. Of course, I was little nervous and had the familiar butterflies wondering how she would be. Thanks to Viju chettan for making it all possible. As you already know how crazy I am when it comes to the people I adore.
I just thought of sharing here one of the question I personally liked of which Premila Paul asked Aishwarya about an event where, Dhanush had said: "My wife is, even more, simpler than my father-in-law" and is it true?
Aishwarya responded, He probably said so because he had to.. 😀 and she continued, that there is no one, in turn, to be as simple as her dad but we grew up seeing them (parents) and we just imbibed it. Their expressions and attitudes naturally extended into her.
I believe the whole success story comes. When a child is able to accept and understand the limitations that get imposed on their relationship with their parent owing to their busy lifestyle and the parents, in turn, are sensitive to how the child is coping with the limelight.
It was refreshing to see how relationships need not always fall victim to the trappings of luxury and amidst all the glitz and glamor, they managed to inspire creativity and free thinking in their daughters.

Larry Lessig is Wrong, and should "Get Over It"
For the uninitiated, Larry Lessig is the outspoken and controversial former Stanford Law School Professor, and current director of Edmond J Safra Foundation Center for Ethics at Harvard, who is a leading voice for opposing artists rights on the Internet as expressed by the protections afforded in copyright law.
The two links below illustrate in painstaking detail just how far Larry Lessig (directly and indirectly) will go to be proven wrong. The first in Eldred v. Ashcroft and then again in Golan v. Holder.
ABA Journal – The Education of Larry Lessig.
From Eldred to Golan: The Traditional Contours Test.
Lessig writes of his public defeat in The Nation:
…the Supreme Court shut the door, finally and firmly, on any opportunity to meaningfully challenge a copyright statute constitutionally.
Read that again, Lessig was arguing on the grounds of the constitutionally of copyright… uhm… good luck with that. Then compare to a recent lecture Lessig gave to a high school class where he told students that he lost Eldred for "silly, stupid reasons" — because anyone who disagrees with him is silly and stupid? Surely he didn't mean that his "reasons" in Eldred were silly or stupid?
So for those of you keeping score at home that makes it Copyright two, Lessig zero. It's pretty simple math.
Also ironically it's Lessig who is against money buying influence in politics but it is his causes that are being funded by a variety of major corporate interests, especially Google and offshore gambling interests. That's right–the same Google who is spending record money lobbying on capital hill–you know, what Politico calls "ambassadors to the Hill", at least when it's a tech company lobbying. Yet another case of "do unto thee, but not unto me."
But the thing that is most interesting to us, is how Lessig suggests that anyone opposed to his views–especially the hated "Hollywood"–should just "get over it", but yet he and his Google-financed interest groups seem prepared to outspend anyone on their tireless crusade against artists rights.
We think Larry should buy a guitar and "get over it", it's more fun on our side.

Inheritance of Resistance to the First and Second Broods of the European Corn Borer in Corn

The European corn borer is one of the most destructive insect pests of corn. Our objective was to determine the inheritance of host resistance in corn to the first and second broods of the European corn borer with Design III and S1 progeny analyses. All estimates of additive and dominance genetic variances were significantly different from zero except for the dominance variance for second-brood cavity counts. Additive genetic variance, however, was the major component of the total genotypic variance in the F2 population for all traits. Average level of dominance was in the partial range for the date of anthesis (0.74), first-brood leaf feeding (0.81), and second-brood cavity counts (0.53), but in the range for complete dominance (1.09) for the second-brood visual rating. Some genes have dominance action in conditioning resistance to first and second broods of the European corn borer. Selection procedures that emphasize selection for additive genetic variance in the population for first- and second-brood larval feeding resistance would be effective for improving host resistance.

A foundation, in memory of Salomon (Mongui) Abraham Levy Maduro, and carrying his name, was established on March 5, 1974 by his widow Mrs. Rachel Louise (Lou) L. Maduro and their daughter Mrs. Ena Dankmeijer-Maduro. An Advisory Board and a Board of Directors were appointed to ensure compliance with the Foundation's core business and its continuity.
The Foundation encompasses the plantation house "Rooi Catootje", its antique furniture and its priceless library, containing a unique collection of "Antilliana" and "Judaica".
It was Mr. Maduro's desire to make his valuable collection available to the public. His heirs, upon recommendation of Mrs. Daphne van Schendel-Labega, took it upon themselves to ensure the continuation of the collection. The resulting library, now housed in the Ena Dankmeijer-Maduro Pavilion allows the public to share its contents as a reference collection, as well as maintaining "Rooi Catootje" as a historical monument.


"Snowbound" is set in an isolated cabin in the Colorado Rockies in 1873 and, as the wind picks up and the food supply dwindles, you might think that somebody is going to be eaten. You'd be wrong, but as Margaret Edwartowski's play illustrates, there is more than one way to be confined and more than one way to be consumed.
An old-fashioned melodrama with higher aspirations – long on plot, short on character development – that could almost have been written in 1873, "Snowbound" began its life as a late night one-act at Planet Ant Theatre in 2010. It received so many plaudits that Edwartowski has written a second act and, now under Kate Peckham's direction, "Snowbound" is back at Planet Ant as a full-length play in prime time.
Its what-will-happen-next factor is nearly off the charts. Living in the cabin are John (Stephen Blackwell), his 17-year-old sister, Sara (Jaclyn Strez), their grandmother Evaline (Nancy Arnfield) and John's infant daughter, Mary (a doll and sound effects). John's wife has died in childbirth, his and Sara's parents have also died, and John's heart is so hardened by grief and rage that he has become abusive toward whomever is left.
We first meet them before the snow falls. Granny Evaline yammers incessantly about her genteel and prosperous upbringing, an echo, conscious or not, of Amanda Wingfield in "The Glass Menagerie," even down to the plethora of gentleman callers who would follow her home. As it happens, John brings home a sort of gentleman caller, his friend Wil Starkey (John Ager), a farmer from down the mountain who is clearly in love with Sara, and she with him.
Wil invites the whole family to move down to his place for the winter, but John won't have any charity. Later, as winter sets in but before travel becomes impossible, Wil returns to the cabin to find Granny seriously ill, Sara weakened and John missing. Wil repeats his offer, but his horse can't carry everyone, which presents a life-and-death moral dilemma whose resolution will not be disclosed here.
Suffice it to say that if everyone dies, there would be no second act. In act two, those who survive act one face the consequences – and the future. This is where things get almost embarrassingly contrived. Nineteenth-Century novelists like Thomas Hardy or the Bronte sisters could pull off embarrassingly contrived; 21st-Century playwrights, not so much.
Peckham maintains a precise degree of tension; her staging is neither too fast nor too slow. Ager, whose character, Wil, is the most fully developed, has the chance to play more than one emotion at a time and makes the most of the opportunity. The other actors are more constrained, but fight the good fight in varying quantities.

Showa Shell Sekiyu K.K. has a 49MW biomass power plant that uses wood pellets from Canada and palm kernel shells from Southeast Asia. Palm kernel shells (PKS) are the major competition to wood pellets in terms of imported biomass used for power generation in Japan.
We have been working on a project to construct a 54,500kW capacity biomass power plant in Yonago city, Tottori. The site of approximately 59,000㎡(5.9ha). We plan to use fuel such as wood pellets and palm kernel shells(PKS), a type of biomass fuel imported from overseas.
Biomass Pyrolysis Plant Biomass pyrolysis plant takes advantages of the biomass carbonization technology, using the high temperature to process sawdust, rice husk, straw, palm shell and other biomass waste into charcoal with rich carbon content.
Carbonization plant can turn biomass (agricultural waste, rich husk, palm, tree leaves, etc.), animal waste and sewage sludge into charcoal. So, it is also called as charcoal making machine, wood charcoal making machine, palm kernel shell charcoal making machines, coconut shell charcoal making machine, biomass pyrolysis plant, etc.
Best Method to Deal with Palm Kernel Shell: Palm Kernel Shell Carbonization Furnace 2018-09-13 2018-08-29 by adminccnet The charcoal made by palm kernel shell has a wide application in overseas.
The multiple use of its solid wastes, ranging from the empty fruit bunch (EFB), fibre, palm kernel shell, palm frond and trunk certainly explains why palm oil by-products emerge as strong contenders for lessening the country's vulnerability to fluctuating conventional energy prices, .
Beston biochar making machine produces charcoal with several raw materials, such as biomass (wood chips, sawdust, palm kernel shell, bamboo, rice hull, coconut shell), municipal solid waste, sludge, etc. After a series of reaction, these material can be converted into charcoal, tar and wood vinegar.

Malaysia Concrete Recycling Plant from Malaysian Manufacturers and Exporters - Malaysia B2B Marketplace providing Concrete Recycling Plant Offers and Catalogs from pre-verified Malaysia Suppliers and Manufacturers.
One type of business that is known to be immensely profitable is using palm kernel shell charcoal machine in Indonesia.This is because the combination of these two resources allows for a very efficient production mechanism that will allow any business, big or small, to sell cheap products with high margins on the market.
The leading palm oil producers in the world should consider limiting the export of palm-kernel shells (PKS) to ensure supplies of the biomass material for renewable energy projects, in order to decrease dependency on fossil fuels. For example, many developers in Indonesia have expressed an interest in building palm kernel shell-fired power plants.
We are the marketing company and agency for various products in Europe and Asia. The coconut shell charcoal represents a new product for our company as we enter into a joint venture with a newly established company producing this item. The joint venture company is situated in Indonesia and in the heart of coconut plantations.

Airborne transmission of the delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 in an auditorium

The Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 has inflicted heavy burdens on healthcare systems globally, although direct evidence on the quantity of exhaled viral shedding from Delta cases is lacking. Literature remains inconclusive on whether existing public health guidance, formulated based on earlier evidence of COVID-19, should respond differently to more infectious viral strains. This paper describes a study on an outbreak of the Delta variant of COVID-19 in an auditorium, where one person contracted the virus from three asymptomatic index cases sitting in a different row. Field inspections were conducted on the configuration of seating, building and ventilation systems. Numerical simulation was conducted to retrospectively assess the exhaled viral emission, decay, airborne dispersion, with a modified Wells-Riley equation used to calculate the inhalation exposure and disease infection risks at the seat level. Results support the airborne disease transmission. The viral emission rate for Delta cases was estimated at 31 quanta per hour, 30 times higher than those of the original variant. The high quantity of viral plume exhaled by delta cases can create a risky zone nearby, which, for a mixing ventilation system, cannot be easily mitigated by raising mixing rates or introducing fresh air supply. Such risks can be reduced by wearing an N95 respirator, less so for social distancing. A displacement ventilation system, through which the air is supplied at the floor and returned from the ceiling, can reduce risks compared with a mixing system. The study has implications for ventilation guidelines and hygiene practices in light of more infectious viral strains of COVID-19.

Q: .Net Custom Intaller Actions integration with wix I made a setup project on vs 2010 .net 4.0 for deployment of my product.The whole installations is based on my custom installer actions which i referenced in my setup project.
Now for some reason we have to migrate this setup project to WIX.
Is there a way that i integrate my previous made custom installer actions to WIX.
I searched here and googled as well but not found such stuff.
Thank you.

A: As long as you mentioned that the installation logic is primarily in custom actions, then the most appropriate way to move to another install software vendor can look like this:

*

*Examine the current installation project and list out every single action it does, for instance:

*

*install files to the XXX folder

*write the values to the YYY registry key

*modify the configuration files the ZZZ way

*etc.

*When you have this list ready, refer to the very basic tutorial / user guide of the toolset you're moving towards. For WiX, I can recommend this tutorial, this book or a number of How To articles in the WiX.chm which is installed together with the WiX toolset.

*Create the empty project and start building your installer from scratch, following the list you created in the point 1.
IMPORTANT: you should use custom actions AS SELDOM AS POSSIBLE. Think of those as the last resort. First, examine whether your requirement can be satisfied with the standard capabilities of WiX or Windows Installer (the underlying technology). Search how people achieve this or that with Windows Installer. If not, search for ready-made custom actions - e.g. standard custom actions in the WiX toolset, or third party. If you didn't find anything, then you can turn to writing your own. But even in this case there are best practice techniques how to make the action less error-prone.

A: Your best option here is to use dark to decompile your existing msi into a wxs file and then use that as a basis for your new project.
dark.exe InputInstaller.msi OutputFile.wxs

Dark is included in the wix installation.


I recently had the pleasure of chatting to a legend. Catherine Spencer, founder of the business Inspiring Women, former Women's England Rugby Captain and author is currently writing her book, 'Mud, Maul, Mascara' and is a woman with heart.
She describes her rugby career as a 'series of blind summits reached while climbing up a mountain' as there wasn't a lot of publicity around women's rugby at the time, so she wasn't sure how far she could progress. With every level that she 'climbed to', she became aware that there was another 'peak' to reach towards. It struck me, as we chatted, that this is so often how life goes. We never know what's around the corner and as we forge our way forward, anything could be waiting. I guess the secret lies in taking a leaf out of Catherine's book and climbing 'blind', as long as you keep going (best not to focus too much on looking back or down either – easier said than done!). Catherine's sporting achievements alone, are phenomenal – playing rugby for England, whilst still working her day job to make ends meet. I was slightly nervous before our conversation, not knowing what to expect from someone who has achieved so much, but I found a kind, easy to talk to, quietly confident woman, who is a role model for both men and women.
Rugby and sport run in her genes, as Catherine comes from a family where her dad played rugby and her mum, a PE teacher, played hockey. Catherine and her twin brother joined the same team and started playing mini rugby together back in the mid-80's. Receiving her first England cap against Wales in the 2004 Six Nations must have been a proud moment in the Spencer household. She went on to achieve 63 caps for England, playing in two World Cup Finals, one of which she captained but, frustratingly, England lost both finals to New Zealand.
One of the greatest challenges that Catherine faced, at this point, was her decision to retire from the game in 2011. As with many sportsmen and women, knowing when to 'hang up your boots' can be an agonising decision, which was further compounded for Catherine by the fact that in 2014, she watched the England Women's Rugby team win the World Cup without her. She says that the range of emotions that she experienced at this point were almost inexplicable and would have taken a good psychologist many hours to unravel.
Taking on a role as Women's Rugby Development Officer for the South West in 2010, meant that Catherine was responsible for developing the game across Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Gloucestershire. She says that in some ways it was the perfect job for her, but in other ways, it was difficult. She could never get away from the game and had to go out every day and face the fact that she hadn't quite achieved her dream of winning the Rugby World Cup.
Realising that she had spent most of her life promoting women's rugby, it dawned on her that she needed to explore a new venture. She says her role was quite demanding in that she attended a lot of sporting events and listened to many keynote speakers, noticing that 99% of them were male. In a 'lightbulb moment,' she said, 'Hang on, I know there are females who have a story to tell, who can add value' and so her business 'Inspiring Women' was born.
Another of Catherine's passions is opportunity and equality for all, regardless of gender, where you are from or your skin colour. She believes that if you want to do something that you should be given an equal choice. This passion led to her becoming an ambassador for the Tag Rugby Trust in 2007, travelling to various countries to promote the programme. The trust developed FITR (Female Inspiration Through Rugby) which is currently running in Zimbabwe, and through rugby, is developing young female leaders, training them up as mentors. These mentors are, in turn, working with younger girls in their communities. They are also funding Butterfly Cups to be provided for girls who don't have access to feminine hygiene products, this means that they can keep going to school during menstruation.
She wants to encourage women of all ages to be leaders, which doesn't necessarily mean that they need to manage a team of ten or twenty, but that they have the confidence to step out and be the best version of themselves.
I asked Catherine what some of the high points have been in her career so far and she said that it had to be beating New Zealand at Twickenham in 2009. It was in front of a record-breaking crowd, was her fiftieth cap, she scored the only try, was captain and she got player of the match. As a rugby fan, I know how impressive that is, and it's definitely one of the highest 'high' points that I've written about!
With thought-provoking words like these, I am looking forward to her new book and will definitely be ordering a copy.
Asking Catherine for the best life advice that she has received she said, 'Don't think too much, just do it and don't overthink things. If something doesn't work out, don't worry, do something else. Put your hand up and go for it. Think about what you can do, not what you can't do'.
Wise words that resonate with me. Catherine Spencer, an inspiring woman indeed!

Q: Moving development of Android app to new machine I have an Android application that was programmed using Eclipse as the editor on one laptop. When I exported/published/signed the application to create the .apk, I did so on this machine, creating a new keystore in a folder on the C drive.
I want to move development to a new laptop. I already have the SDK, Eclipse, etc, etc moved over to the new laptop, including the project core files. Is it okay to move the keystore to the new machine and put it in the same directory? Does anything else have to be done in order to use this same keystore?

A: The keystore does not depend on a particular computer, so you are safe to do this.

A: If I remember correctly, each time you sign and package, it will ask you (or it will remember your last choice) where your keystore is. I would say copy it over, when you first attempt to sign / package it will ask where it is at, and you can select it.

Haitians 'unwilling to use camps'
Homeless Haitians are unwilling to move to new camps outside the country's devastated capital city, a new survey by Oxfam suggests.
19:34, Sat, Feb 6, 2010
Homeless Haitians are unwilling to move to new camps outside the devastated capital. (AP/Michael Lau [PA]
Less than a third of people living in one of the largest camps in Port-au-Prince want to move to the planned new camps.
The snapshot survey by the charity Oxfam suggests support is low for Government plans to set up new and improved camps outside the city.
It also suggests that support would rise if the camps were set up close to where homeless people used to live.
Support among the homeless would then jump to almost three quarters if that were the case, the survey suggests.
Oxfam appealed today for the Haitian Government to draw up its plan in "meaningful consultation" with the people it will affect.
The charity also warned that any new settlements should be seen as temporary and not left to turn into permanent slums.
The death toll from last month's devastating earthquake is now estimated to have been 212,000. A further 300,000 people were injured.
It is estimated that around one million people, from a population of nine million, were made homeless in the 7.0-magnitude quake.
Oxfam conducted its brief face-to-face questionnaire survey of 110 people made homeless in the earthquake, on February 3.

Defensive Alec Baldwin Denies Obstructing Cell Phone Investigation
Baldwin appeared furious over the accusation.
Now months removed from the shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins by Hollywood's Alec Baldwin, investigators are continuing to attempt to understand just how a live round ended up in a weapon that the actor was pointing at the camera.
And, perhaps even more worrisome, is just how Baldwin has chosen to categorize the incident, stating emphatically that he never pulled the trigger.
Now, in true Hollywood fashion, this may very well be a McGuffin, or a plot-driving point with no value. Because, if Alec Baldwin sets the argument as to whether or not he pulled the trigger, (and if he knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is no footage from the incident, which he would know as a producer on the film), then he is moving investigatory eyes away from the negligence that existed on his set, and into some sort of strange "trigger pull or no trigger pull" argument.
In recent days, Baldwin has stood accused of obstructing a warrant meant to obtain data from his cellphone, and is now emphatically denying such claims.
Alec Baldwin refuted allegations that he is not complying with a probe into the fatal shooting of a woman on the set of the film "Rust" last year.
The firing of a prop gun by Baldwin led to the death of the director of photography, Halyna Hutchins, and injured the director, Joel Souza.
"Any suggestion that I am not complying with requests or orders or demands or search warrants about my phone, that's bullshit, that's a lie," Baldwin said in a lengthy video posted to Instagram on Saturday.
But the reality of the situation sounded a lot like red tape.
The actor said in the Instagram video that authorities in New Mexico, where the shooting took place, have to go through the state of New York, where he lives, to obtain his cellphone.
On Friday, law enforcement officials in New Mexico requested assistance from authorities in New York in their efforts to retrieve the phone, according to a BBC report.
"That is a process that takes time. They have to specify what exactly they want, they can't just go through your phone and take your photos or your love letters to your wife or what have you," Baldwin said.
At this time it does not appear that Baldwin will be held legally liable in the case, but there are still concerns that his capacity as a producer on the film could see him culpable for damages in a civil suit claiming negligence.

Major Conservative Personality Flips on 45: 'Trump is Done!'
Are they really this out of tough with the Republican Party?
On the right side of the aisle, there are few storylines as trite and tawdry as that of former President Donald Trump's potential bid for reelection in 2024, and all of the strange circumstances that go along with it.
First, Trump is battling a number of challenges to his political career. There is not only the January 6th select committee, that appears to be aiming their efforts at having Trump prosecuted in the coming months, but there is also the New York State Attorney General, who is investigating the Trump Organization and attempting to attack the former President through the targeting of his children.
But now there are other issues for Trump, particularly as Florida Governor Ron DeSantis appears to be posturing himself for a run at the GOP nomination himself. Trump has been quoted as wondering why DeSantis won't simply support his own efforts, and the Sunshine State lawmaker has responded brutally.
This has led one of America's most recognizable conservative pundits to speak up.
Conservative pundit Ann Coulter is predicting the end of Donald Trump's hegemony in the GOP, saying the former president "is done."
"Trump is done," Coulter, a onetime Trump booster turned critic, wrote in an email to The New York Times. "You guys should stop obsessing over him."
Coulter's comments came in an article published in the Times on Sunday about the mounting tensions between Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) amid speculation of a potential showdown for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
This wasn't the first time that Coulter has attacked Trump in recent days.
Coulter pounced on Trump over those comments in a tweet last week calling the former president a "liar and con man."
"EXCLUSIVE: Trump is demanding to know Ron DeSantis's booster status, and I can now reveal it," Coulter wrote. "He was a loyal booster when Trump ran in 2016, but then he learned our president was a liar and con man whose grift was permanent. I hope that clears things up."
While this certainly may make it seem as though Trump is facing some sort of serious threat to his potential nomination, polls have nearly universally shown him as the odds-on favorite for the 2024 nomination, besting even DeSantis by a vast number of points.

UFC Chief Laments Lack of Available Monoclonal COVID Treatments
This, just days after Florida accused the federal government of hoarding the life-saving treatments.
If you were to ask the government about the options that we have for defeating the coronavirus pandemic, you are likely to hear but one side of the story: Vaccines.
The Biden administration has been unwavering in their support of these inoculations, even going so far as to attempt to install a constitutionally unsound vaccine mandate that took only two months for the Supreme Court to gut.
But there are other options too, induing the widely popular and effective monoclonal antibody treatments. And, despite the government's insistence on pushing vaccines on the masses, the Biden administration has also appeared to corner the market on these life-saving medicines…and they're being awfully stingy with them.
"I bet I could get some f*****g pain pills quicker than I could get monoclonal antibodies," UFC President Dana White said in regards to the rationing of monoclonal antibodies for treatment of COVID-19 during a press conference on Saturday following the UFC 45 Vegas in Las Vegas, NV.
MMA Weekly asked White about a left-wing censorship campaign targeting Joe Rogan under the auspices of "misinformation" involving an "open letter" from assorted medical professionals and academic calling on Spotify, the distributor or Rogan's eponymous podcast, to "take action" against what they described as "mass-misinformation" which is "medically and culturally dangerous."
The exchange was lively to say the least.
MMA Weekly asked, "I was wondering what your thoughts were with the 200-plus doctors trying to put pressure on Spotify saying that Joe's a menace."
White replied, "Are they really? Well how about this, ever since I came out and said what I did, It's almost impossible now to get monoclonal antibodies. They're making it so you can't get them — medicine that absolutely works, they're keeping from us. I don't want to get too political and start getting into all this s***, but ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies have been around for a long time. Now, all of a sudden, you can't dig them up to save your life. The doctors won't give them to you."
The criticism arrives amid a flurry of complaints from Florida officials, complaining that the Biden administration simply will not ship these treatments to them, and without providing any reason as to why.

Q: android webkit audio working on 4.1.2 and below but not above? Hello there SO community,
I'm doing an app for android using html and js and the webview. The app plays sounds on button clicks (html). Thanks to you (SO people) i could make it work using this code : java =
    myJSInterface = new MyJSInterface(getApplicationContext());
    webview.addJavascriptInterface(myJSInterface, "Android");

public class MyJSInterface {
    Context mcontext;
    MediaPlayer mp;

    MyJSInterface(Context c) {
        mcontext = c;
    }
    public void MyAudioPlayer01(int audio) {
        /** play sound from the web page */
        if (issound) {
            Integer[] soundid = { null, null, R.raw.s01, R.raw.s02,
                    R.raw.s28, null, null, R.raw.xdhiboun, };

            if (soundid[audio] != null) {
                mp = MediaPlayer.create(mcontext, soundid[audio]);
                mp.start();
                mp.setOnCompletionListener(new OnCompletionListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
                        mp.release();
                        mp = null;
                    }
                });
            }
        }
    }

I call the above code via js : js code =
    Android.MyAudioPlayer01(audio);

This works fine with android 4.1.2 but not above !
Could you suggest something (i have been searching whole day) ?
I also tried soundPool with no luck :-(
Is it something to do with js and the webview security updates ? do i need to add more permission for newer android version ? is mediaplayer obsolete ? ...
Thank you for your help.

A: I found the problem :

Caution: If you've set your targetSdkVersion to 17 or higher, you must
  add the @JavascriptInterface annotation to any method that you want
  available to your JavaScript (the method must also be public). If you
  do not provide the annotation, the method is not accessible by your
  web page when running on Android 4.2 or higher.

Everything work fine now with mediaplayer and soundpool.
YOUPI :-)
Thank you all, peace.

Gavin Rossdale was spotted enjoying lunch with an unidentified brunette and her adorable white dog in Los Angeles on Dec. 10.
Gavin Rossdale, 56, was photographed walking outside during a lunch date with a mystery woman and her dog, who was in a stroller, on Friday. The Bush frontman wore a green and brown camouflage patterned sweater and black zippered pants as well as white sneaker-style shoes during the Los Angeles, CA outing while the gorgeous brunette wore a red long-sleeved dress with ruffles and snakeskin boots. They were both smiling from ear to ear at one point and looked happy and comfortable around each other.

It wasn't clear who Gavin's lunch date was but their outing comes around four months after it was reported he was Instagram influencer Gwen Singer, who is six years younger than his oldest daughter Daisy Lowe, 32.

"Gavin and Gwen both find each other hot and they're having fun together," a source told The Sun about the potential new couple. "It's still early days because they have only known each other a few months but it is all going well. She is drop-dead gorgeous and has loads of men chasing her but she was really drawn to Gavin, as he was to her. They have been spending time together in Los Angeles and seeing how it goes. Neither of them is in any rush to make it serious."
Gavin's reported dating news is happening six years after he split from his ex-wife Gwen Stefani, 52, who is now married to Blake Shelton, 45. He previously made headlines for reportedly being romantically involved with other girlfriends that included Natalie Golba in 2019 and Sophia Thomalla from 2017 until 2018. In July 2020, he admitted to PEOPLE that he was exhausted by love.
"I keep getting screwed up and screwed over in all these relationships," he told the outlet. "I'm not very good at them, I guess. I had a divorce, I had a long-term girlfriend — that went to s*** — and I don't have a girlfriend now, even though everyone seems to think I do. You get burned by that stuff."
When Gavin's not trying to navigate his love life, he's spending time with his three sons, Kingston, , 15, Zuma, 13, and Apollo, 7, all of whom he shares with ex Gwen. He was most recently seen attending Apollo's baseball game, which Gwen and Blake also attended, in Nov.
