Logic gates allow bacteria to work like computers
Four colonies—each composed of a strain containing a single gate—are arranged such that the computation progresses from left to right.
Logic gates, similar to those that form the basis of silicon computing, can now be inserted into bacteria via genetic engineering, making it possible to manipulate bacteria to perform complicated tasks. This finding will ultimately enable cells to be programmed with more intricate functions, allowing cells to produce pharmaceuticals, materials, and industrial chemicals. The technique also has potential for application in agriculture.

4th annual NOLA Caribbean Festival is June 24th and 25th
June 7, 2017 Eric Craig Local 0
The music and culture festival will have international food and art vendors, along with some very New Orleans elements. All photo courtesy of Jimmy Seely.
At the end of June, New Orleans will become an international hotspot.
On June 24th and 25th, organizers will host the 4th Annual NOLA Caribbean Festival. The annual festival celebrates New Orleans and its Caribbean influences through its eclectic mix of food, music, and culture. The outdoor event, which has capacity for 4,000 people, will be held at Central City BBQ, located at 1201 South Rampart Street. Admission to the event starts at $10 per person and $5 per child. Anyone with a full carnival costume will get 50 percent off admission at the door.
This year the two-day festival will have several international Caribbean art and food vendors. For the first time in its four years of existence, there will be a kid's corner that will service drum lessons, a bounce house, arts and craft, and face painting.
For the adults, there will be a Dancehall Queen competition and a Salsa tent.
The festival also sports an international line up of musical artists. This year there will be performances by Etana, I-Majesty, T-Rock, Alexy Marti, Da'Range, and several others. Over eight countries will be represented this year.
For a full list of the international line-up, visit the NOLA Caribbean Festival's official website.
Attendees that show up to the NOLA Caribbean Festival in carnival costume get 50 percent off admission.
The idea of the NOLA Caribbean Festival stemmed from duo Joel Hitchcock Tilton and Jimmy Seely, as the two played Reggae-and Caribbean-based music at clubs and shows throughout New Orleans. Around five years ago, the two landed a permanent monthly gig DJing Reggae-and Caribbean-based music at The Freret Street Publiq House.
During their time at the venue, the duo had the opportunity to partner with several other reggae artists, which Hitchcock Tilton called "the perfect storm that came together." Soon, the duo recognized that they had enough performers for a small music festival. In 2013, the duo partnered with several reggae bands and DJs to create the first NOLA Caribbean Festival held at the Freret Street Publiq House.
"We wanted to showcase the culinary, architecture, dance, and musical history right here in New Orleans," Hitchcock Tilton said.
The festival grew to showcase a mix of Caribbean arts, crafts, and music, and extended its artists and performers to Cuba, Jamaica, Trinidad, and Fiji.
New Orleans and the Caribbean
During the first two years, the NOLA Caribbean Festival was held at the Freret Street Publiq house until the venue closed its doors in 2016. For its 3rd Annual year, the festival temporarily moved to Roux Carre' on Oretha Castle Haley. This year, the festival found a permanent home at Crescent City BBQ, located on 1201 South Rampart Street.
At Central City BBQ, the NOLA Caribbean Festival has capacity for up to 4,000 attendees. Last year, the festival was sold out at 1,000 people due to venue limitations. In its second year, over 2,500 people attended the festival.
Hitchcock Tilton said the event is steadily growing from a boutique neighborhood festival to a cultural landmark.
"A lot of people feel like this is long overdue. New Orleans is so similar to the Caribbean with its food, music and messed up streets. The City has a feel similar so Savanah (Cuba) or Kingston (Jamaica). It's definitely an honor and pleasure to be a part of this," Hitchcock Tilton said.
While passed its Freshman year, Hitchcock Tilton sees the 4th Annual Festival as a reboot.
"A lot of way we're looking at this as the first year. It's the first year where the festival has a permanent home. There is a permanent outdoor stage, professional sound system, drum lessons, and a kid's corner. We're definitely stepping it up."
Jerk Chicken Festival
The NOLA Caribbean Festival organizers also held the Jerk Chicken Festival, which took place during Mardi Gras 2017. The festival, which lands near Bob Marley's Birthday, celebrates the common ground between Jamaican and New Orleans culture—along with Bob Marley's legacy.

Rob Dixon (* im 20. Jahrhundert in Atlanta) ist ein US-amerikanischer Jazz-Saxophonist und Musikproduzent.

Leben und Schaffen
Dixon lernte ab dem zehnten Lebensjahr Saxophon. Nach seinem Bachelor of Arts an der Hampton University in Virginia studierte er weiter auf der Indiana University bei David Baker. Nach seinem Umzug nach New York City 1996 spielte er mit unter anderem mit bekannten Jazzern wie Tony Bennett, Dakota Staton, der Ellington Band, Jonah Jones, Slide Hampton, Ray Charles, dem Maria Schneider Jazz Orchestra und dem Smithsonian Master Works Jazz Orchestra.

In den folgenden Jahren arbeitete er über vier Jahre in der Illinois Jacquet Big Band. Zusammen mit dem Tenorsaxophonisten Mark Turner schloss er sich dem Quartett Tana Reid an, das von Drummer Akira Tana und dem renommierten Bassisten Rufus Reid geführt wurde.

Dixon kehrte 2003 nach Indianapolis zurück, wo er mit dem Cleveland Heritage Jazz Orchestra und dem Buselli-Wallarab Jazz Orchestra arbeitete. Als Bandleader hat er sich die Funk-Jazz Combo Triology +1 und ein Orgel-zentriertes Quartet mit Melvin Rhyne aufgebaut. Seinen Lebensunterhalt verdient er als Vize-Chef bei den Owl Studios.

Dixon ist unter Vertrag bei den Owl Studios, einem Jazz-Fusion-Plattenlabel mit Sitz in Indianapolis, dessen Vizepräsident er ist. Dort hat er zwei Alben als Bandleader  herausgebracht – What Things Could Be (2006) und Reinvention: The Dixon-Rhyne Project (2008). Auf Reinvention ist der Organist Melvin Rhyne als Co-Leader und namengebend dabei.

Nebenher ist er Director of Education (künstlerischer Leiter und Nachwuchsförderer) des jährlichen Indianapolis Festivals Indy Jazz Fest. Nachdem die Eigner der Owl Studios die Namensrechte des Festivals von der American Pianists Association gekauft hatten, die es seit 2000 geführt hatten, erfanden sie es als Non-Profit-Veranstaltung neu. Die neuen Eigner konzentrierten sich darauf, die Schulen und Highschools sowie Jazz Kapellen der regionalen Hochschulen einzubinden. Die Eintrittspreise wurden familienfreundlicher, also weniger teuer, auch der Ort wurde verlegt. Statt rund um den "father' day" im Frühsommer wurde es in die dritte Septemberwoche verschoben, da man laut Dixon dann bessere Chancen hat, gute Künstler zu bekommen.

Dixon arbeitet auch häufig als Sideman mit anderen Musikern von Owl Studios, darunter Derrick Gardner & the Jazz Prophets, Cynthia Layne, Steve Allee, Mike Clark und The Headhunters. Nach eigenen Angaben in seinem Blog bei Owl Studios spielt Rob jeden ersten Mittwoch im Monat im Indianapolis Jazzclub The Jazz Kitchen und ist dort Moderator der Jazz Jam Session jeden letzten Montag im Monat. Auch in den regionalen Chatterbox Jazz Clubs taucht er gelegentlich auf. Eine seiner Kompositionen (mit Raeford Gerald) Bump 'N From The Middle ist auf der Compilation Act 1 auf dem Southbound Label bei Ace Records (UK).

Im Oktober 2010 ging Dixon als Mitglied des Mike Clark Trios auf eine von der russischen US-Botschaft gesponserten Tournee mit 17 Konzerten quer durch Russland.

Rob Dixon ist nicht mit dem gleichnamigen Schauspieler zu verwechseln.

As I begin this post, I'm thinking of the many happy adoptions we've had lately, and also about the eager dogs still waiting for their forever families to find them. Today I want to tell you about three very special ones who are patiently hoping that their stay at the shelter is nearing an end and happy new beginnings are coming soon.
I've been here before and while the folks here love me, I really want a family of my own for the rest of my life.
Ledi loves Blanket Time and can be a real couch potato when hanging out with her peeps like Linda, Jenna, Caroline, and Marianne.
She also loves to play fetch, though she sometimes gets distracted and forgets to bring the ball back. She can't wait for Marianne to throw the ball.
But she races back without it.
When Ledi was at WHS the first time, I made this movie about her. It still captures her wonderful personality. Let's get Ledi her forever home soon!
Today when I arrived at the shelter, Caitlin was out in a yard with Ledi, so I snapped these pictures. She is such a happy dog!
No one can understand why I haven't been adopted yet. Maybe I'm waiting for YOU!
We cannot figure out why Dixie has not been scooped up by a new family yet! She is absolutely wonderful! Dixie is a three-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier mix who is full of life and love. She walks great on leash, adores people, and is a joy to be around. She thoroughly enjoyed herself at the WillaMutt Strut last week where she got to meet so many new people. She'll be a devoted best friend and will keep her family laughing and active. She'll do well with older kids. Here she is with some of her fans. Some family is going to be mighty lucky when they find this girl and adopt her! Marianne and Ayla had a blast spending time with this sweetheart.
Sometimes when a new dog is transferred into our shelter, it is love at first sight. It happened on Sunday for Caroline and me. We were both smitten the minute we met Angelica, a two-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix. When she first arrived from California, Angelica was quite shy, but what a difference a few days make! Angelica is extremely affectionate and would love to be a lap dog. She walks perfectly on leash, is not rattled by other active dogs being walked around her, and loves to run and play. And that's not all! When it's time to settle, she does so happily and politely. She is looking for a family with kids ten or older who will make her a valued part of the family, as she is not a dog who would do well ignored in the back yard. She loves people's attention and affection. Because she can get overwhelmed in new, confusing situations, she'll do best in a calm family. Angelica is a very special girl who will make a wonderful new member for some lucky family. Here she was with Caroline on Sunday.
This afternoon we took Angelica into a visitation room to see if she wanted to play. She did.
Buzz is back once again. He's a sweet eleven-year-old senior looking for a retirement home where he can spend a lot of time outside relaxing in his fenced yard. Here he is with one of his favorite people, Jenna.
Today Kathy took Buzz for his afternoon outing. She is another one of his many fans.
Roco is a new transfer dog. He's a four-year-old American Pit Bull/Retriever mix, here with Marianne and Caitlin. He is such a gentle boy that he is rated PG 5+!
Our Girlie is still waiting for her perfect fit of a home. She's still enjoying the company of her many fans, including Caitlin and Marianne, but sure would love a home of her own. Girlie is a seven-year-old mixed breed. She has now been adopted and returned three times. Through these trials and errors, we have discovered that she cannot live with cats and that she will need a patient and understanding person who will give her the time she needs to settle into a new home. But she will be so worth the effort it will take. Each of her adopters has written about her gentle, affectionate personality and her love to be with her people. Girlie wants nothing more than to be close to her person. She is smart and treat-motivated which makes her easy to train—she has learned basic commands quickly. She would love a family of her own and could live with older kids. Girlie does need to be the only pet, but she will be all that you need.
This afternoon Marianne and Caitlin had her out before I arrived and snapped these pictures. Did I mention that Girlie is a lap dog?
Bogart is working with the Training Team to improve his impulse control. Here he is with team members Jolene, Rosie, and Linda.
Look how well he's doing with self-control!
Gracie fell in love with little Roxanne, a ten-year-old Pug/Beagle mix who arrived at WHS with a bad skin condition. She is so much better now. She may not ever have a full coat again, but she feels great and is so loved by staff and volunteers.
Meet Linda and Belle, eight-month-old Terrier mixes from our latest California transfer. They weren't cleared to walk yet on Sunday, so I snapped these pictures in their kennel. They are adorable and both are on hold to go to the same home. Fingers crossed it works out!
Today I took pictures of the duo outside. They actually sat for a nanosecond with Marianne and Caroline!
Koolee is a very sweet four-year-old Great Pyrenees mix who is a new arrival, found as a stray. Caitlin immediately fell in love with him and couldn't wait for me to take pictures of him with her. We're hoping he won't be at the shelter for long.
Another one of Caroline's current favorites is Snoopy. He's a recent transfer, a two-year-old Pointer/Retriever mix. He's got a cold at the moment, but that doesn't dampen his energy one bit. Snoopy is a terrific young boy who can't wait to become someone's best hiking buddy.
Caroline shot this video of him playing.
When Echo arrived at WHS for the second time in 2012, she was very timid, but one of the sweetest dogs I'd ever met. Here she was then.

I absolutely love travelling, whether its to the other side of the world or to a neighbouring city I enjoy the whole process of 'getting there'. So on a recent trip to Scotland I started my trip with a visit to the No1 Lounge in Gatwick's North Terminal.
This was my first time visiting this particular lounge, and I was very impressed with the facilities and set up of the lounge. I have used several other lounges at Gatwick Airport (depending on where I'm flying from etc.) but this is one of the best I've been to.
The lounge is open from 4:00am to 10:00pm every day and as my flight had a departure time of 7.25am I was given access to the lounge from 4.25am (you get a maximum of 3 hours in the lounge however you do have the option to purchase additional hours if for example you are delayed). If purchased online entry costs £30 for adults & £16 for children (2-11 years old) however if you decide to pay on arrival you will encounter a surcharge and run the risk of the lounge being full.
Airports are renowned for their busyness so for me the lounge is an escape from all of the hustle and bustle, and helps you to relax pre-flight. But the lounge also offers a whole variety of services including a fully tended bar (complimentary drinks excluding champagne) I have no shame in saying at 4.25am I ordered a G&T and glass of bubbly! It had to be done! On top of the drinks you also get complimentary hot and cold food (they have a before 11am menu and an after 11am menu so breakfast and brunch type snacks. Also a continental food section with fruits and cereals etc.
Some of the before 11am "made to order" dishes include Bacon rolls, Beans on toast, Kedgeree & Porridge and the after 11am dishes consist of Lamb hotpot, Mac & cheese, Cheese plate & Fish finger sandwich to name a few!
The lounge is fully equipped with quality magazines, national papers, unlimited Wi-Fi, private meeting rooms, table service in the bistro, flight information screens and power points so everything you need is in the lounge! Catch up on emails, listen to music, read a few magazines and chill out before your travels.
I would highly recommend the No1 Lounge at Gatwick's North Terminal and will 100% be back again! Friendly staff, excellent services and a great way to start your adventure!
You will find No 1 Lounges at Gatwick, Heathrow, Edinburgh & Birmingham airports. Click here to book!

Amtrak train crashes in Montana, killing at least three
Amtrak officials said five cars on the Empire Builder train 7/27 went off track around 4 p.m. MST.
By John Solomon
Updated: September 25, 2021 - 11:10pm
An Amtrak train traveling between Chicago and Seattle derailed Saturday evening near Joplin, Mont., killing at least three people and injuring many more, authorities said.
The Liberty County Sheriff's Office confirmed the casualties to multiple media outlets as efforts to rescue passengers from turned-over rail cars continued into the evening.
There were 147 passengers and 13 crew members, Amtrak said.
The accident scene was reported about 150 miles north of Helena and about 30 miles from the border with Canada.
The cause of the crash wasn't immediately announced.

The new Nissan Terra is a midsize vehicle measuring 4882mm in length, 1850mm in width and 1835mm in height. The 225mm of ground clearance gives it enough chops to tackle rough terrain. The approach and departure angles of the Nissan Terra are 32.3 degrees and 26.6 degrees, respectively. These along with the ladder-frame chassis, low-range gearbox, 4WD locking differentials, hill-start assist, hill-descent assist and a host of other systems, should make the Terra a good off-roading entry.
The styling of the Terra is inspired by the current Navara pickup. Though not as rough or rugged as the XTerra, the polished design of the Terra should appeal to more conservative customers. The front fascia sports Nissan's latest interpretation of their trademark V-shaped grille.
Under the hood of the Terra is a 184 hp, 2.4-litre petrol engine which can be hooked up to a six-speed manual transmission or a seven-speed automatic transmission. Another mill on offer is the 2.5-litre four-cylinder turbo diesel engine with 190 hp and 450 Nm offered on tap. We're guessing the UAE and GCC markets will probably also get a 4.0-litre V6 option.
The Terra SUV, for now, is an Asia-exclusive plan but it will probably debut in our region by the end of the year.
Finally Nissan has introduced a competitor to the Toyota Fortuner and the Mitsubishi Montero Sport.
It is a good product but I feel Chevrolet Trailblazer still has the lead with its power and stance with that body on frame chassis.
If this is the direction automakers are heading to, then Ford should quickly launch the Everest in our market only to stiff up the competition.
Is this Terra using traditional automatic shifting gear or CVT ?

ASIC launches action against Astra; FOFA changes hit consumers with $7.5b in extra costs: Midday Roundup
Kirsten Robb
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission has begun legal action against mining giant Astra Resources and its directors over $7.6 million it says was illegally raised from almost 300 Australian investors between September 2011 and September 2012.
ASIC is alleging Astra Resources did not provide documents to investors to give them all the information they needed to make an informed decision about whether or not to purchase shares.
As a part of the legal action, ASIC has written to Astra shareholders advising them it is pursuing orders to have their share purchase contracts set aside, which could pave the way for claims for refunds and damages, reports The Australian.
Aussies hit with $7.5b in extra costs due to FOFA Changes
Changes to the Future of Financial Advice laws could cost consumers more than $530 million a year in increased fees and charges, according to a report published today.
The report from Rice Warner says the reintroduction of commissions and other conflicted payments could hit consumers with a staggering $7.5 billion of extra costs over 14 years.
It also debunks the claims by banks and financial planners that diluting consumer protections will reduce the cost of advice.
Industry Super Australia chief executive David Whiteley said in a statement the multi-billion dollar impact explains the relentless lobbying by the banks and financial planners to reduce consumer protections.
"The reality is that cutting consumer protections just increases commissions and fees paid to financial planners to sell bank products."
"It would seem that the banks' objective is to be able to sell compulsory super and other products through financial planners and other staff, rather than provide Australians with the impartial financial advice that they want, need and deserve," he said.
Shares up on open
Wall St rebounded strongly from Tuesday's selloff to close on a high yesterday, as Aussie shares flowed suit this morning.
The S&P/ASX200 benchmark was up 49 points to 5473.6 points at 11.50am AEST. On Wednesday, the Dow Jones closed 158.75 points higher, up 0.97% to 16533.1 points.

E4E-Minnesota Letter to Conference Committee of the Omnibus Education Finance Bill
Dear members of the HF1065 conference committee,
On behalf of Educators for Excellence – Minnesota, I write to extend our support for several provisions found in both versions of the House and Senate education omnibus bills, HF1065 and HF1065, the First Unofficial Engrossment.
Our organization works to ensure that teachers have a leading voice in the policies that impact their students and their profession. Like you, our organization knows that a strong education is a vital building block to creating smart, future leaders. But decades-old education disparities – some of the very worst in the country – have paralyzed any real progress. The COVID-19 pandemic and renewed race and social justice conversations have only punctuated many of these disparities. Facing a historic crossroads, we must prioritize equitable policies that truly put students first.
During upcoming deliberations, we urge conferees to prioritize increased school funding and resources for those who need it most, support policies that aim to recruit and retain teachers of color, and support restorative discipline practices that keep students at school, thereby increasing their opportunities to learn.
With this frame of reference, our 2,300-plus teacher member network supports the following provisions in each omnibus bill:
These compensatory revenue provisions from the House language in HF1065:
Article 1, Section 8 which removes the compensatory revenue cap, allowing schools across Minnesota with high-counts of free and reduced-price lunch students to access necessary funds.
Article 1, Section 15 which requires basic skills revenue to be used on evidence-based practices
Article 1, Section 16 which requires 80% of compensatory revenue to be used at the school site which generated the revenue.
The investments proposed by the House and the Senate to increase the number of teachers of color and Indigenous teachers. We urge you to reach an agreement that includes spending additional resources that help our state diversify its teaching workforce.
The entirety of the Senate language on teacher licensure in HF1065, the First Unofficial Engrossment, which reduces barriers to become a licensed teacher in Minnesota and provides greater flexibility for school districts to hire and retain educators that are the best fit.
These provisions to ensure non-exclusionary discipline policies:
The entirety of the House student discipline reform language, especially the non-exclusionary discipline policies, funding, and the change to current kindergarten through third grade dismissal protocols.
We also thank the Senate for including a similar ban on dismissals for the same student age groups. Our members agree that such suspensions at a young age hinder educational development, they are not a developmentally appropriate negative reinforcer for undesired behaviors, and continue to disproportionately impact students of color.
The House language in HF1065, Article 1, Section 13, which would expand school performance measures to ensure broad participation in honors programming and reporting on how many students are on track for graduation.
Additionally, we oppose the following provisions and urge members of the conference committee to reconsider the following:
The Senate language in HF1065, the First Unofficial Engrossment, Article 2, Section 11. In singling out transgender students, this language fully discriminates against trans students from participating and exceling in intramural or interscholastic activities.
The entirety of the House language in HF1065 that burdens college educated Tier 2 licensed teachers with the need to complete a traditional teacher preparation program, even though they have already demonstrated to be effective teachers as reported by their principals over a three year period. These educators were initially hired to fill a shortage area, and more than 1 in 5 of Tier 1 and Tier 2 teachers are people of color. Eliminating the pathway to a more permanent Tier 3 teacher license would only further hinder efforts to recruit more of these teachers.
The House language in HF1065, Article 3, Section 62, which would repeal the requirement that school districts must report to the Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board (PELSB) information on probationary teachers which accepted a continuing contract position or who were released. This information is key to knowing which licensure areas are seeing the largest turnover and which teacher preparation programs have been successful in placing their teachers.
Over the coming weeks, we look forward to working with you to create an education budget that puts students first. A targeted, needs-based approach and innovative interventions and investments will yield tremendous, generations-long benefits for all Minnesota students.
Paula Cole,
Educators for Excellence - Minnesota


If you practice kayaking, or are considering taking it up, then here are some tips that will be useful for you to successfully master the sport.
Kayaking is considered a great sport, as well as a great medium of recreation that involves a great deal of physical activity. It is also an environmental friendly sport, as it does not involve the usage or wastage of any kind of natural resources.
What's even better, is that people of all ages can learn and enjoy it. It can be enjoyed by those who want to experience some thrill, or even those who want to enjoy the serenity and beauty of nature. But before you venture into this adventure sport, you need to be trained adequately to make it easier, safer, and more enjoyable.
Before you get started, you must acquaint yourself with the types of kayaking, and the types of kayaks as well. Begin with finding a guide for yourself, who can teach you how to go about the sport initially.
The guide will also help you monitor the tides, weather, and the currents. If you plan to kayak without a guide, make sure you have at least one experienced person with you. Familiarize yourself with the gear, before you start. If you are a beginner, the best option would be to get yourself enrolled at a kayaking school, that will train you with the basics.
Following are some essential tips that should be always followed. These tips are all-inclusive of sea, river, whitewater, and ocean kayaking.
It is very important that you stretch yourself well each time before you start kayaking.
This is essential to maintain your stamina and vitality, and it also helps make your muscles ready for the strain they are going to be subjected to. You can also follow this when you are indulging in any other water sports, like surfing, river rafting, sailing, sport fishing, etc.
This is the most important aspect, as everything depends on the kayak that you choose from the various types that are available. Make sure that you buy a kayak that best suits your requirement.
Also, consider the type of waters that you will kayaking in, as the kayak should be able to withstand the currents and waves. A sea kayak is different from a whitewater kayak, and the former cannot be used for whitewater kayaking.
This is yet another important aspect. While choosing a paddle, consider the paddle length, shape, and design of the paddle blade, material of the paddle, etc. You can also carry a spare paddle with you.
Another important gear that you will need is the 'Personal Flotation Device', that will keep you above the water in case your boat capsizes.
You can buy either a type II or a type V personal flotation device, as these are lightweight, efficient, and comfortable. Other gear will include the appropriate navigation tools, clothing, helmet, and equipment related to the boat.
The next important thing that you need to do is to learn how to get in and out of the kayak properly. This needs a lot of persistence and practice, but you will need to master the correct technique first, in order to be perfect at it.
✦ Do not attempt to learn kayaking all by yourself. Always make sure you have an experienced person with you, or at least around you, to guide you through the sport.
✦ Make sure you purchase good quality boats, paddles, and gear. Do not compromise on the quality of equipment for saving a few bucks.
✦ Make sure you have the appropriate safety gear, like a helmet and a life jacket on, before you get into the water.
✦ Check the water and weather conditions of your current location, as well as your destination, before you leave.
✦ Wear bright-colored clothing, a helmet and life jacket, so that you can be spotted easily in case of any danger.
✦ Always carry a whistle with you, to call for help in case you are alone, and get stuck on the way to your destination. Also, carry a spare paddle, a repair kit, and a first aid kit with you.
Hope you find these tips useful while venturing into this adventurous sport, and that it turns out be an experience of a lifetime for you. Enjoy and be safe!

Sterling on Justice & Drugs: New York's Mayor Bloomberg: "we disproportionately stop whites too much and minorities too little"
New York's Mayor Bloomberg: "we disproportionately stop whites too much and minorities too little"
New York's mayor, Mike Bloomberg, is so fiercely defending the NYPD racially discrimnatory "stop and frisk" policy, his judgment has become impaired.
Today he said, "incidentally, I think we disproportionately stop whites too much and minorities too little." Look at this data and consider whether this makes any sense.
Enclosed isa ten page memo prepared by Harry G. Levine, Ph.D., Professor of Sociology, Queens College of the City University of New York, submitted to the New York State Senate on June 15, 2011, regarding marihuana possession arrests by the New York Police Department (NYPD) in the City of New York from 1977 to 2010.
In 1977, the State of New York enacted the Marihuana Reform Act of 1977. The legislature found "that arrests, criminal prosecutions, and criminal penalties are inappropriate for people who possess small quantities of marihuana for personal use. Every year, this process needlessly scars thousands of lives. . ." The legislature enacted New York State Penal Law section 221.05, which provides that such possession is a violation, carrying a maximum fine of $100 for a first offense. However, if marihuana is possessed "open to public view," the offense is a class B misdemeanor (NY Penal Law section 221.10).
Dr. Levine focused on the past fifteen years of arrests and found that the NYPD made 536,320 marihuana possession misdemeanor arrests between 1996 and 2010. In 2010, there were 50,383 such arrests. These many arrests (instead of the issuance of a ticket for the violation of NYS Penal Law section 221.05) are the result of the practice of police officers requesting or demanding that suspects empty their pockets. If they possess marihuana and comply with the officers' request, the marihuana is then "open to public view" triggering the class B misdemeanor and an arrest.
The extraordinarily large numbers of marihuana "open to public view" arrests constitute one out of seven of all arrests in New York City. These tens of thousands of arrests cannot be a mere coincidence resulting from the independent exercise of discretion by thousands of individual officers. This department-wide program of issuing such orders, developed with the knowledge that the orders will be complied with and that compliance will trigger arrests of the thousands of targeted individuals, deprives these persons of their liberty through trickery, constitutes a violation of the subjects' Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination, and the subjects' right to due process in the administration of justice.
Dr. Levine's very extensive analysis of the data regarding these arrests reveals that "for many years, New York City has arrested African Americans at seven times the rate of whites, and Latinos at nearly four times the rate of whites. . . For the last 15 years, 87 % of the people arrested for marijuana possession have been blacks and Latinos, who use marijuana at lower rates than young whites." (emphasis in the original at p. 2). The charts and tables accompanying the memo report arrest rates in New York police precincts that correspond to the racial and ethnic makeup of the precinct that demonstrate an unmistakable policy of racial discrimination in the enforcement of this law. The extraordinary disparity in the rates of arrests across the city is inexplicable except as the result of a deliberate policy that targets African American and Latinos for stops and searches.
Because they are plainly targeted because of their race and ethnicity, the African American and Latino arrestees have had their privileges or immunities of citizenship abridged and have been denied equal protection of the laws in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment, and in violation of federal law.
in violation of 42 U.S.C. 14141.
In addition, the official data and circumstances described in Dr. Levine's memo set forth a long-term, massive, organization-wide felonious course of conduct that is plainly designed to deprive African American and Latino residents of the City of New York of their Constitutional and legal rights under color of law, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 242.
Dr. Levine's careful analysis finds that these arrests target young people. Twenty-three percent of those arrested in 2010 were teenagers! These arrests target persons who have never been convicted of a crime. These arrests "scar thousands of lives" of young people by unwarrantedly creating criminal records with well-known collateral legal consequences, including denial of education, housing, and for non-citizens, deportation. That this policy of arrests is directly contrary to the purpose and intent of the New York State law regarding marihuana possession further illuminates the despicable character of this unlawful conduct by the NYPD and the City of New York.
-- prosecute and appropriately punish those government officials responsible for developing, managing, supervising and approving this plainly unlawful program to violate constitutional rights.
Thank you very much for your prompt attention to this complaint.

Object lessons are powerful tools to teach long-lasting lessons. Each object adds a 3-D visual to stimulate interest as well as help retain the message in memory.
School supplies are ideal objects that can teach students powerful Bible lessons they can remember during their school day because of the supplies they use.
This is a great back-to-school object lesson! Use a BACKPACK to remind students they are unique & special. God wants to use them with their special gifts and abilities!
Or use a BACKPACK to teach a lesson on worry and fear. So many students arrive at a new school year filled with anxiety. Remind them God is with them and can give them peace.
Have you ever thought about how PENCILS can teach us that if we allow ourselves to be held in God's hand and let Him control and guide our lives, we can accomplish great things?! Not only that, but we are all different! Some may be pencils, pens, markers, or highlighters. God created us each unique and usable in His hand!
Who doesn't love a brand new NOTEBOOK waiting to be filled? This lesson teach that God can use us in amazing ways when we come to Him for a clean heart and right spirit. Includes a Doodle Prayer template.
Use SCISSORS for a lesson on how our words can cut and hurt - another lesson to address bullying and how we should use our words in kindness.
SCISSORS can also be used to demonstrate how God can do the impossible!
Use GLUE to help kids understand that although we can't see God's Holy Spirit, He can be with us and strengthening us so we do not have to be afraid or alone.
Includes instructions for fun optional craft ideas as a take home reminder.
Use a box of CRAYONS to teach a super Bible lesson on being kind and not a bully!
Take this even further and use each of the COLORS to teach a lesson on the Fruit of the Spirit. Encourage kids to remember each as they use their crayons at school this year!
A CHALKBOARD or Dry Erase Board can be used to teach a fun interactive object talk on sin and the need for forgiveness. Using a misspelled word shows kids that just because we want to do something our way doesn't make it right.
Two object talks using MATH! The first uses corresponding numbers with letters in words to demonstrate God's great love for us!
The second MATH Bible lesson uses equations demonstrating how perfect & orderly God shows Himself to be even in the area of computing numbers!
FOOTBALL season is a great reminder of the armor of God and the protection God gives us in the game of life. No football player, in their right mind, would run on to the field for a game without his uniform including all the pads!
A yummy candy object lesson using M&Ms or Skittles points out we may all look different on the outside, but we are each special, unique and created to be filled with God's love!
Even stories can become object talks. Just like everyday objects, stories can lock a lesson into our memory. Some pastors call these sermon illustrations. Who doesn't love a story and a story with a Bible lesson is that much better! Each of these include story lessons include Scripture references and Bible application lessons to teach and inspire.

Home Sentinel Magazine Game Review: 'Colonial Marines' a joy for 'Aliens' fans
Game Review: 'Colonial Marines' a joy for 'Aliens' fans
This video game image released by Sega shows a scene from "Aliens: Colonial Marines." (AP Photo/Sega)
You're entering a tight corridor filled with menacing shadows. Is that breathing you hear? Well, don't run. Clanging metal walkways and staircases always give your position away.
You might be playing a first- or third-person shooter — or watching the film "Aliens."
Every science fiction/horror game of the last 20 years — from the granddaddy of them all, Id's "Doom," to recent titles such as Electronic Arts' "Dead Space" series — owes a debt to the first two films in the "Alien" franchise, Ridley Scott's moody 1979 original and James Cameron's action-packed 1986 sequel, "Aliens."
"Aliens: Colonial Marines" (Sega, for Xbox360, PS3, $59.99; for PC, $49.99) is the follow-up that fans have been craving. (Forget about "Alien 3" and "Alien: Resurrection.") Developed by Gearbox Software, maker of the fantastic "Borderlands" series, it offers a strong story that fits perfectly within the mythology of the franchise.
Taking place shortly after the events of Cameron's sequel, "Colonial Marines" puts you right into the thick of the action on the planet LV-426. You play as Cpl. Christopher Winter, who arrives with his Marine unit at the planet in response to a distress call from the U.S.S. Sulaco — the ship Sigourney Weaver's Ellen Ripley is aboard at the close of the second film.
Your mission is to find out why the Sulaco is still orbiting LV-426.
If you can survive the xenomorphs.
Some attack you from the ceiling. Some spit acid. Some explode when you get too close. When a face-hugger leaps at you for the first time, it'll make you jump out of your seat and laugh at the same time.
There are many nice touches drawn from the "Aliens" film. You can cut open and seal doors with welding torches. Your main weapon is a pulse rifle — complete with pump-action grenade launcher — and you can also track down "Legendary" weapons that pack a bit more punch, such as Cpl. Hicks' shotgun and Lt. Gorman's pistol. The ships and vehicles are spot-on with those in the movie, and sparring with a xenomorph while strapped into a power loader is as fun as it sounds.
And then there's my personal favorite: the motion tracker. When a horde is closing in from all directions, you may feel the urge to say, "There's something moving and it ain't us."
As you progress through the 8- to 10-hour campaign, you earn points that can be spent on weapon upgrades or your character's appearance. These upgrades apply across all the content in the game — including the multiplayer, which allows you to play as a xenomorph in several modes.
The settings are the real meat of the game. You spend some time aboard the Sulaco before reaching the planet's surface and fighting your way through the Hadley's Hope colony, both of which boast a strong attention to detail when it comes to the set designs from the film. Perhaps the most satisfying segment takes place aboard the derelict spaceship, complete with egg chamber and — yes! — the "space jockey."
The ominous Weyland-Yutani Corp. hovers over everything, and you may even pick up on a small reference to Scott's sort-of prequel "Prometheus." And series veterans Michael Biehn and Lance Henriksen provide voiceover work.
Truth be told, the mechanics are pretty standard, the load times seem a bit long for this generation and the closing segment with the alien queen falls very flat. Still, "Aliens: Colonial Marines" should satisfy the average shooter fan and will enthrall those who love the films. Three stars out of four.

My husband and I were amazed at how booked up the show was but we managed to get tickets. The magician was spectacular and this was far more action-packed than the luau we went to the night before.
We had been to a magic show in Las Vegas last year and it didn't even compare to this. The showroom was astonishing and some of the allusions and magic that we saw here made our jaws drop. I can't believe they dance with fire knives each night!

Q: probability when large difference Let's say the following is data for airplane accident death to total.
Country Sky        Total death       Total individual traveler
A                     30                    10,000
B                     60                    15,000
C                     3000               10,000,000

Is it possible to calculate probability of air accident probability for any traveler in A, B, or C skies by simply dividing total deaths over total travelers ? If some countries have low flight and others have very high number of flights can this affect the estimates ?

A: The division Total death by Total individual traveler gives the probability of dying in conditions A, B or C. Note that this is the probability of dying given that the person is a traveler. The global probability of dying in an air crash would have to take into account the probability of traveling at all.
If the number of flights is very different, the estimates will have different variances. There will be more uncertainty for the countries with low amount of flight. If sampling is independent and identically distribution (IID), the variance of the estimate decreases as $O\left(\frac{1}{N}\right)$ where $N$ is the sample size.

Tachi Palace Casino expands use of Xtract One's SafeGateway
Xtract One Technologies has announced that Tachi Palace Casino Resorts, located in Lemoore, California has increased its use of the company's SafeGateway weapons detection technology, to accommodate the venue's growth.
Tachi, owned by the Tachi-Yokut Native American tribe, first purchased Xtract One gateway technology in July 2021. The new resort expansion spans more than 300,000 square feet, encompassing a casino, hotel and resort, entertainment center, gas station and more. Tachi will now expand its use of SafeGateway to all entrances of the newly built complex.
Tachi says that the solution has significantly increased the safety and customer experience at the venue, with the SafeGateway detecting an average of more than seven guns and 450 knives per month. Furthermore, patrons arriving at the resort can walk straight in, without delays.
"We continue to be pleased with the ongoing partnership with Xtract One and the demonstrated ability to keep our patrons safe," said Walter Gunn, Director of Safety and Security for Tachi.
According to Xtract One, SafeGateway detects guns, knives and other weapons on people walking into venues, without the need to stop and remove personal items.
"Xtract One is always focused on creating true partnerships with its customers, which is why Tachi represents another 'win' for us," said Xtract One CEO Peter Evans. "We're not in the game just to close the sale, we are in it for the long term – which is why the Tachi expansion is validation of our strategy."

Researchers Provide Novel Insights Into Primate Arterial Aging
Zhang Nannan, Chinese Academy of Sciences
May 11, 2020 (Medical Xpress) – Cardiovascular disorders are leading causes of morbidity and death worldwide. Age-associated changes in arterial properties, such as endothelial dysfunction and structural alterations, are considered to be initial events in the development of atherosclerosis. Due to the high heterogeneity of vascular cells from different sources, our understanding of human arterial aging and the development of interventions against human arterial aging and associated diseases are hindered.
Recently, scientists from the Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Peking University have worked jointly and established the first single-cell transcriptomic atlas of primate arterial aging.
Using the single-cell transcriptome sequencing technology, they drew a comprehensive aging roadmap of cynomolgus monkey arteries at the single-cell resolution and identified FOXO3A loss as a key driver for arterial endothelial aging.
This study entitled "A single-cell transcriptomic landscape of primate arterial aging" has been published online in Nature Communications on May 5th, 2020.
The aortic and coronary arteries are two of the most lesion-susceptible regions in the human vasculature with age. The researchers analyzed senile aortas, which exhibited characteristics of vascular aging, including increased wall thickness, fibrous cap formation, arterial calcification and elastic lamina fragmentation.
They then depicted the single-cell transcriptomic landscape of arteries from young and aged non-human primates and unraveled aorta-specific and coronary artery-specific molecular signatures for eight vascular cell types.
Gene network analyses characterized transcriptional landmarks that regulated vascular senility and positioned FOXO3A, a longevity-associated transcription factor, as a master regulator gene that was downregulated in six subtypes of monkey vascular cells during aging.
Furthermore, targeted inactivation of FOXO3A in human arterial vascular endothelial cells resulted in the disruption of cellular homeostasis and recapitulated the major phenotypic defects observed in aged monkey arteries.
Altogether, the researchers established a high-resolution single-cell transcriptomic atlas of non-human primate arterial aging, revealed the dynamic changes of cell composition and molecular characteristics during arterial aging in primates and verified FOXO3A loss as a key driver for arterial endothelial aging.
This work provides a critical resource for the understanding of primate arterial aging and contributes important clues to future treatment of age-associated vascular disorders.
Finally, it is noteworthy that the same team recently obtained the world's first FOXO3A-enhanced human vascular cells using gene editing (Cell Stem Cell, 2019, cover article).
In contrast to the FOXO3A-deficient vascular endothelial cells mentioned above, FOXO3A-enhanced cells are significantly enhanced in proliferation, tube formation, and vascular repairability in vivo, providing an excellent graft material for the treatment of vascular degenerative diseases.

Ten Days of L.A. Ave Commercial Truck Enforcement
Nature of Incident: Ten Days of L.A. Ave Commercial Truck Enforcement
Report Numbers: Numerous
Location: Los Angeles Avenue, Moorpark
Date & Time: 10/20/2019 – 10/29/2019
Unit(s) Responsible: Ventura County Sheriff's Office
Moorpark Police Department Traffic Unit
(S)uspects, (V)ictims, (P)arty, (D)ecedent
City of Residence
(S) Sukhkaran Singh
(S) Jason Palma Sacramento/Fresno

Narrative:
Commercial vehicle traffic in the City of Moorpark on the Los Angeles Avenue corridor poses a significant public safety concern. The Moorpark Police Department recognizes that concern and has a proactive enforcement program to optimize traffic safety in the city.
The Moorpark Police Department Traffic Unit has several deputies extensively trained in the area of commercial truck enforcement. These deputies have been to highly specialized schools for this type of work and they fill various shifts throughout the week, including weekends, with funding by the City of Moorpark specifically designated for this purpose. A large number of commercial vehicles travel through Moorpark on a daily basis. The Moorpark Police Department strictly enforces commercial truck laws in the city limits of Moorpark in an effort to keep traffic on our roadways operating smoothly and safely. This media release details ten days of recent commercial vehicle enforcement and is representative of activity of the traffic unit throughout the year.
On 10/20/2019 at about 9:06 a.m., deputies from the Moorpark Traffic Unit stopped a loaded tractor-trailer on Los Angeles Ave near Edenbridge Ave for expired registration. The tractor was expired since 2015. The driver of the tractor-trailer was owner/operator Jason Palma. After a short investigation, Palma was cited and released for not having a commercial driver's license, expired registration, and no insurance. Palma's tractor-trailer was towed incident to the expired registration and driver's license violation. The investigation also later revealed Palma was operating his tractor-trailer without a California Motor Carrier permit, which is a misdemeanor. Palma was again contacted and arrested for that charge four days later on 10/24/2019. Palma returned to the Moorpark Police Station on 10/29/2019 and presented falsified DMV registration paperwork in an effort to get his truck released. The release was denied pending full and proper vehicle registration and Palma was arrested and booked into the Ventura County Jail on a felony charge of providing false information on a DMV form.
On 10/25/2019 at about 2:48 p.m., units from the Moorpark Traffic Unit stopped a tractor-trailer on Los Angeles Ave near Shasta Ave for driving recklessly. The driver of that tractor-trailer was driving approximately 60 mph in the improper lane and also abruptly changing lanes and braking to avoid colliding with other vehicles including another tractor-trailer. Based on the driving pattern and the immediate suspicion of drug use by the driver upon contact by the officer, a Driving Under the Influence investigation was conducted. It was determined the driver, Sukhkaran Singh, was under the influence of a methamphetamine and his ability to safely operate the tractor-trailer was impaired as a result of the illegal drugs in his system. Singh was arrested and booked into Ventura County Jail for violating Vehicle Code 23152(f)-DUI drugs and Health and Safety Code 11550(a)-Being under the influence of a controlled substance. The tractor-trailer was towed incident to the driver's arrest.
During this ten day time period, officers from the Ventura County Sheriff's Office Moorpark Police Department Traffic Unit made enforcement stops on 48 commercial vehicles, wrote 42 citations, and towed 11 tractor-trailers.
In addition to the above information, the Moorpark Police Department would like to announce that Captain Victor Fazio and Public Works Director Sean Corrigan will be presenting a community workshop to the Moorpark City Council and the public on November 13, 2019, at 6:30 p.m. This presentation will detail the past development and future plans of L.A. Ave as well as current enforcement and safety efforts undertaken by the city. The program will take place in the Apricot Room (City Council Chambers).

Improving Your Conversations
Nicholas T. Batzig
It was said of Thomas Halyburton, the great Scottish theologian of the late seventeenth century, that "he abhorred that unedifying converse that is spent in frequent and unseasonable jesting…so common with many, though he was abundantly facetious [humorous] in company, when and where he saw it expedient; and this way sometimes he has dropped what tended to edify. Those who conversed most with him will own, they seldom enjoyed his company without some profit by it. He oft was uneasy after much converse with other, if he was not edified himself, or thought he did not edify others."1 So, how are your conversations benefiting those around you?

Bishops (episcopate) are those who have care of multiple congregations and have the task of appointing, ordaining, and disciplining priests and deacons. They are often called 'evangelists' in the New Testament. Examples of first century bishops include Timothy and Titus (1 Tim. 5:19-22, 2 Tim. 4:5, Titus 1:5).
Priests (presbyterate) are also known as "presbyters" or "elders." In fact, the English term "priest" is simply a contraction of the Greek word "presbuteros." They have the responsibility of teaching, governing, and performing the sacraments in a given congregation (1 Tim. 5:17, Jas. 5:14-15).
Deacons (diaconate) are the assistants of the bishops and have the task of teaching and administering certain church functions, such as the distribution of food (Acts 6:1-6).

Armed forces veterans with PTSD offered free gym by Dragon's Den star
Royal Marine wants to shake hand of Duncan Bannatyne - who is demanding the Government does more for Royal Navy and British Army veterans
Max ChannonLive and Trending Editor
Duncan Bannatyne
Armed Forces veterans with PTSD are being offered free gym membership by The former Dragons' Den star Duncan Bannatyne - who has called on the Government to do more to help military personnel.
The 70-year-old, who served in the Royal Navy of six years after joining aged 16, also put his money where his mouth is - by offering free gym memberships at all 72 Bannatyne Health Clubs to veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Duncan told the Sunday People: "I truly believe our armed forces are the best in the world. I think they do an amazing job and the bravery that comes with doing the job they do is outstanding.
"If I can help in a small way such as giving a free membership to help combat PTSD, then I am more than happy to do that.

"It is something that is very dear to me."
Veterans' charities say Duncan Bannatyne's amazing generosity could save the lives of our neglected heroes.
Former Royal Marine Jeff Williams, of Veterans United Against Suicide, said: "I would love the opportunity to shake Duncan's hand in a display of respect from the veterans' community. This is exactly the type of initiative the veterans' community needs.
"If there is a better way of banishing PTSD I don't know what it is.
"Sport and physical fitness are vital for good mental health. For veterans suffering from PTSD this could be a real life-saver and that is no exaggeration."
Devon men say HMRC caused them psychological harm after Government hired 'psyops' team
Devon MP accused of 'dishonestly' misleading MPs over tax charges that drove people to suicide
Five free memberships, lasting a year, will be given at each of Duncan's 72 clubs nationwide. The memberships will be issued on a first-come-first-served basis. Those who apply may be asked to show proof of their military history and details of their diagnosis. Unfortunately,
The gyms retain the right to make a final decision on who receives memberships.
To apply please email: veterans@bannatyne.co.uk
Charities can also make contact on behalf of veterans they support.
