FDA Announces Rare Form of Cancer Linked to Breast Implants
Consumer AlertsNo Comments
A rare form of cancer associated with breast implants has been linked to nine deaths and hundreds of cases, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced Tuesday.
The agency had originally identified a possible association between breast implants and a rare type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma called anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) back in January 2011. Since then, more studies and research have come out solidifying the link, causing the FDA to release an update.
"Since 2011, we have strengthened our understanding of this condition and concur with the World Health Organization designation of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) as a rare T-cell lymphoma that can develop following breast implants," the FDA said in its March 21 statement.
Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects cells in the immune system. Although it is not considered a breast cancer, it can grow in the capsule of scar tissue next to the implant.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, there were 290,467 breast augmentation procedures in 2016 alone. While the FDA acknowledges there is a low risk of patients who receive breast implants developing the cancer, it says the risk is elevated.
"All of the information to date suggests that women with breast implants have a very low but increased risk of developing ALCL compared to women who do not have breast implants," the FDA said.
The cancer can be fatal but is often treated by removing the implant. Chemotherapy and radiation have also been used during treatment in some cases.
Hundreds of Cases of Breast Implant Cancer Reported
As of February 1, the FDA had received 359 reports of the breast implant-related cancer, which included nine deaths.
The agency made it clear that its medical device reports (MDRs) may not always be accurate or include every known case.
"While the MDR system is a valuable source of information, it may contain incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data," the FDA said. "Over time, we may gather more information about a report and thus the numbers listed above may change."
However, the information it received did seem to confirm other reports that the cancer may be associated with the implant surface. Of the 231 reports that included information about the implant surface, 203 were reported to have textured implants while 28 were reported to have smooth implants.
At this point, it's still unclear why textured implants may have a higher risk factor, but the FDA said recent articles have explored different possibilities.
"Most of the cases in the literature reports describe a history of the use of textured implants," the agency said. "Several recent journal articles explore the risk factors for BIA-ALCL, including the methods used to create surface texture of the implant and the role of biofilm in causing disease, among others."
With the FDA's reports, the fill type did not seem to have any correlation. Of the 312 reports that included implant fill types, 186 were filled with silicone gel and 126 were filled with saline.
Explosion of Information Since 2011
Since the FDA first started investigating the link between breast implants and anaplastic large cell lymphoma, there's been an increase in scientific literature about the subject. In 2016 alone, several organizations and regulatory bodies have released information about the association.
Last year, the World Health Organization determined breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma was a separate diagnosis. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network and Plastic Surgery Foundation also released information about the cancer to better inform physicians about diagnosis and treatment.
Authorities in Australia similarly found connections and issued a warning about the link. In December, the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration reported that since 2007 it had found 46 confirmed cases of the cancer in the country, including three deaths. Additional cases are still being investigated.
FDA Recommendations for Health Care Providers and Patients
In its recently released update, the FDA issued information to health care providers and patients on identifying and treating the cancer.
The agency told health care providers that the cancer is very rare and is identified most frequently in patients undergoing implant revision operations for late onset, persistent seroma.
"Because it has generally only been identified in patients with late onset of symptoms such as pain, lumps, swelling, or asymmetry, prophylactic breast implant removal in patients without symptoms or other abnormality is not recommended," the FDA said.
The FDA encouraged patients to educate themselves on the topic of breast implants.
"Although it is rare, BIA-ALCL appears to develop more frequently in women with textured implants than in women with smooth-surfaced implants," the FDA suggested. "Before getting breast implants, make sure to talk to your health care provider about the benefits and risks of textured-surface vs. smooth-surfaced implants."
The agency reiterated that the cancer is very rare and no change to routine medical care or follow-ups is necessary. It continued to recommend patients get routine mammography screenings and periodic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect ruptures in silicone-filled implants.

Inner Mongolia (Mongolian: , Öbür mongɣul; Chinese: 内蒙古; pinyin: Nèi Měnggǔ; occasionally romanized to Nei Mongol) is the Mongol autonomous region of the People's Republic of China and lies in the north of the country.
Inner Mongolia borders, from east to west, the provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Hebei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and Gansu, while to the north it borders Mongolia and Russia. It is the third-largest subdivision of China spanning almost 300 million acres or 12% of China's land area. It has a population of about 24 million. The capital is Hohhot.
The majority of the population in the region are Han Chinese, with a large Mongol minority. The official languages are Standard Mandarin and Mongolian, the latter written in the classical alphabet.
In Chinese, the region is known as "Inner Mongolia", where the terms of "Inner/Outer" come from Manchu dorgi/tulergi. Inner Mongolia is distinct from Outer Mongolia, which was a term used by the Republic of China and previous governments to refer to what is now the independent state of Mongolia plus the Republic of Tuva in Russia. In Mongolian, the region is known as öbör mongγol where öbör can mean south, inner, front, bosom, breast.
Han Chinese are the largest ethnic group, about 80% of the population. Mongols are the second largest ethnic group, about 17% of the population. There are more Mongols living in Inner Mongolia than in the independent nation of Outer Mongolia.

160 graduate from adult literacy program
Adult literacy programs continue to be part of the corporate community responsibility of the K92 Mining Limited in Kainantu district, Eastern Highlands province.
BY NELSON JOE
The developer of the first mining project in the province initiated this program in late 2019 and has consistently been implementing it.
Eunice Hombomia taught eight women from Unantu community near the project site at the inception of the program.
The enrolment increased over time with one more teacher engaged in 2021, and the teaching moved to Punano and Barinenka communities.
Thus, the program saw 160 adults graduate from the Agarabi Resource Centre just off the Highlands Highway near Kainantu on November 28.
The program offers three levels of English and Tok Pisin for those who cannot read or write. Of the 160 graduates, four men and 16 women passed out with literacy skills in Tok Pisin.
In English literacy, 25 women and four men passed out with level 1 English, while 42 women and six men graduated with level 2 English and 27 women and 23 men graduated with level 3 English.
Divanna Umpao, the teacher employed to run the program at the centre, said the 584 adults had enrolled at the beginning of the year but the class was reduced as a result of the 2022 National General Elections.
"Such was the interest," Mrs Divanna said.
"They were sitting outside the classroom on the lawn, anywhere they could find a space.
"The election reduced the initial 584 students down to the final 160 graduates who were handed their certificates on the November 28 by the Agarabi LLG President Edward Pangu."
The development officer Ovex Jamaika and general manager external for affairs Mark Schubert commended Ms Umpao. "For all students, the level of understanding changed significantly.
Level 1 students are able to construct sentences, and level 2 students are now better able to pronounce and spell," Mr Schubert said.

Иван Класнић (29. јануар 1980) бивши је хрватски фудбалер који је играо на позицији нападача.

На почетку фудбалске каријере играо је у локалном Ст. Паулију у Другој Бундеслиги. У Вердер из Бремена прелази 2001. године, али у првој екипи оставља дубљи траг тек после две године због тешке озледе колена, која га је удаљила с терена.

Један је од највећих нада хрватске репрезентације, поготово након одласка Даде Прше. Иако је у бременском Вердеру стекао статус голгетера, у репрезентацији је дуго времена био у другом плану. После пријатељске утакмице у Базелу, када је Класнић постигао гол против Аргентине, те Аустрије пре Светском првенству у Немачкој 2006. изгледало је да ће и у репрезентацији почети са постизањем голова као и у клубу, али, то се ипак још није догодило.

У Вердеру је уз Мирослава Клозеа у сезони _2005/06. био кључни нападач, а вредност му се процењује на 12 милиона евра, те је постао најскупљи хрватски фудбалер до 2007. до када му је важио уговор са Вердером.

За репрезентацију је дебитовао у Сплиту 18. фебруара 2004. године у утакмици против Немачке, а до почетка квалификација за Европско првенство 2008. одиграо је 23 утакмице те постигао седам голова.

Током јануара 2007. због компликација насталих због отказивања рада бубрега, једина нада му је била хитна трансплантација. Мајка му је дала свој бубрег, али тело га је одбацило. Нови бубрег је добио од оца. Све је добро прошло, а доказ за то је да се поново појавио у репрезентацији Хрватске на Европском првенству 2008, заиграо против репрезентације Пољске, постигао победнички гол и проглашен за играча те утакмице.

Imagining the Immediate Future of Computing
Kevin Chau in Culture / Thursday, March 19, 2015 / 0 Comments
The future of computing is in the web, the cloud, whatever you want to call it. It still lives on your desk, wrist, hand, pocket, wherever. To the user it will be more or less the same as it is now.
Our digital lives are progressing at a faster rate than technology itself.
Truly the Internet of Things
Our digital lives are progressing at a faster rate than technology itself. Just this year, Canon will be releasing 50MP DSLRs that are accessible to you and I. Panasonic already has 4K recording capabilities that are accessible to the normal consumer. We're already able to stream 4k from YouTube and Vimeo even though a very small subset of devices out there can display it.
Our digital footprint will outpace the current growth rate of technology in a matter of years. This is the consequence of having iPhones in every pocket.
In our current computing state, all of the heavy processing occurs on your local machine. You need fast processors, lots of RAM, overall lots of computing power. Games are rendered locally, photos are stored in a powered box you have on your desk, videos take up the space of multiple photo boxes.
When you edit a video, your local computer draws a lot of power (probably coal generated), creates a lot of heat, lots of noise, and if you have an older computer, takes up a lot of your time, or it won't work at all for newer formats.
Where We Could Be
Right now we have an ecosystem of devices and services. Take Adobe products for example. What if you could use a basic internet device to process your photos, videos, and other media. It could be the most basic of devices. It doesn't need to have a powerful processor, it doesn't need powerful graphics. All it needs is a big battery, and some sort of internet connectivity.
In the near-future, an app like Lightroom will be nothing but a front-end on your computer. All of your photos will be stored in a cloud service built on services like AWS Glacier, the Lightroom develop module will be nothing more but a set of APIs hitting a VPS box which does all the heavy computing work to process digital photos. Your preview image in Lightroom will only be a live-updating picture from the cloud.
The same can be said for video editing - we can already stream 5K videos!
In a way, Adobe is already doing this with Photoshop: Essentially it is a web-based remote desktop client. However, the future would be different. Instead of streaming the whole experience. The interface and interactions are all local - all of the data processing would happen behind the scenes in the cloud - returning only the end result of your actions. With a fast enough connection - this is entirely possible.
It isn't dissimilar to Photoshop streaming - just instead of streaming the whole desktop interface, you're streaming just the image.
Just think, Google Docs but for everything that isn't in the cloud already.
The future of computing is not unlike the current architecture of web apps. You have a front-end; data and content are requested by your browser separately from the interface. Services like 6px.io are the beginning of this movement for the remaining stragglers.
What About Gaming?
You could even do this for games. OnLive is already doing this. In its current state, lag is manageable for casual gamers, it's no worse than streaming your iPhone game to your AppleTV.
Theoretically, you could beam data across the country in 14ms. But it doesn't have to be like that. The same architecture we use to serve static content faster to people around the world, CDNs, that same network can be expanded to host these VPS boxes that process your information and stream visuals back to you. Instead of being dominantly one-way, it can be bidirectional.
Just remember, it takes about 200ms on average for you to respond to visual stimuli. That's slow compared to our current latency of gaming today - which can be as fast as 15ms to nearby servers.
What Will it Be Like?
Imagine carrying around an iPad sized device, that's more powerful than the current computer sitting on your desk. You won't be able to notice the difference. Everywhere you would normally go you'll have access to your remote server that's doing all of the storage and computing for you. It's managed by reputable companies. Your digital life is kept safe from traditional home break-ins, you can even have it mirrored and backed up to keep safe against natural disasters. This all happens seamlessly.
You'll pay a subscription to your Adobe products - just like you do with Creative Cloud, but instead of just downloading the apps, you'll just have the interface, and Adobe runs the cloud server that streams you info. For games it will be companies like OnLive
You'll still have an app icon on your screen, it all happens like magic.
The only thing stopping us from having this today are companies like Comcast, Verizon, and Time Warner. In order for us to have this computing future, we need Gigabit to be the standard. We need internet to be affordable to everyone. Companies like Apple and Google are not the roadblocks to this future, it's the pipe streaming you information from the internet today.
It's too small, and too slow.

NAROWAL: Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) leader Ahsan Iqbal on Sunday lamented that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government is not serious about the health of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif who is serving seven-year imprisonment in Kot Lakhpat Jail.
"Prime Minister Imran Khan and Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar will be responsible if anything happens to Nawaz Sharif," he said in a statement.
The PML-N leader said such attitude was also adopted toward Begum Kulsoom Nawaz's ailment, adding the party had adopted a legal procedure for provision of healthcare facilities to the three-time prime minister.
He advised party workers to wait and hopped that they would get relief. He warned that the party would be compelled to protest if the government didn't review its decision.
Maryam Nawaz, daughter of the PML-N supreme leader, met his father along with his personal physician Dr Adnan Khan at Kot Lakhpat Jail on Saturday to inquire about the PML-N supremo's health.
Nawaz Sharif, incarcerated at the prison since December, 2018 after his conviction in Al-Azizia corruption case, has been suffering from various health problems.
Maryam and Dr Adnan visited the prison after receiving permission from the interior ministry. A large number of PML-N workers also thronged the Kot Lakhpat prison and chanted party slogans when she reached the prison.
The party activists also halted a passenger train by blocking a nearby track, mounting the engine and shouting slogans in favour of their leader.

Malaga Marinas - Spain
also known as Málaga
The Province of Malaga is situated on the Southern side of Spain, on the Mediterranean coast, in the region of the famous Andalusia. Being bordered by the Mediterranean Sea, Cadiz, Granada, Seville and Cordoba, this province has astonishing surroundings. Being spread on a 7308 km surface, the population of the province is concentrated in its capital which wears the same name. Malaga is one of the oldest cities in the world and therefore, it has some of the most developed cultures and well-administered regions. It has 102 municipalities and a few important cities that are visited by a great number of tourists every year, such as Marbella, Mijas, Estepona, Benalmadena, Fuengirola, Torremolinos and Velez Malaga. The metropolitan area of Malaga is one of the most popular, where most of the monuments and cultural heritage lay. The other significant regions of the province are Costa del Sol, Guadalhorce Valley, La Axarquia, Serrania de Ronda and Comarca de Antequera.
According to historic sources, the city of Malaga was founded in 770 BC, under the name of Malaka. Later on, it was also called Malaha by the Phoenician people who used to live on this territory. In time, Malaga became a part of the Roman Empire and it was ruled by the Visigoths. Two centuries after the roman rule, the territory was ruled by the Muslim Arabs and it became an important commercial centre called Malaqah. Elements of the oriental and roman empires can still be recognised in the architectural styles and the old monuments, reminding us that the past ages' events were not so long ago.

Battery recycling process divert batteries from landfills and to recover metals and other materials.
Batteries consist of heavy metals and toxic chemicals. Therefore, battery disposal in landfills along with municipal waste can have severe impacts on ground and water.
There are several categories of batteries, most of which are recyclable. The main categories of batteries and their recycling processes are presented below.
Lead Acid Batteries is one of the most common types of batteries. Indicatively but not limited, this category includes car and motorcycle batteries, UPS batteries and other commercial batteries.
Undoubtedly, it is the easiest type of batteries to recycle and recover lead, plastic and sulfuric acid. The simple and cost effective process to recover lead multiple times constitutes this type of battery recycling the most widespread in the world. Currently it is estimated that 98% of all lead acid batteries are recycled.
In the beginning of the recycling process, a hammer mill is used to break apart the lead acid batteries. Following, the broken battery pieces end up to a vat, where plastic is separated from the metals. More specifically, plastic floats whereas lead and other metals sink to the bottom of the vat.
Plastic is then removed, dries and sent to a recycling center for reprocessing. In most cases the recovered plastic is used for new battery cases, with the process to continue for several times.
The lead concentrated in the bottom of vat is sent to smelting furnaces, where it is poured into ingot molds. Any impurities floating are removed with a scraper when lead is still molten. After cooling, ingots are removed from the molds and are forwarded to battery manufacturers, who will re-melt them and produce new batteries.
With regard to the sulfuric acid included in the batteries, neutralization is the most common practice applied. If necessary, the neutralized water is treated and tested to meet clean water standards. Alternatively, the acid is treated and converted to sodium sulfate, a substance that has multiple uses in glass, textiles and detergent industries.
An increasing problem of our days is the mix of lead acid with Li-ion batteries. Increased attention is needed since this mixture can lead to critical incidents such as explosions and injuries.
Nickel-Cadmium batteries belong to the category of rechargeable batteries. Despite being invented and used for more than 100 years, they have lost a big market share from other rechargeable batteries, such as NiMH and Li-ion batteries.
Nickel-cadmium battery recycling is important since in that way it is achieved their diversion from landfills. More specifically, if disposed in a landfill, the metallic shell will corrode and cadmium will escape. Consequently, cadmium will dissolve and will end up to water. Sadly, cadmium traces are already detected in oceans.
A high temperature metal reclamation process is used to recycle Nickel-cadmium batteries. First all plastic parts are removed. Then the metallic parts are led to a furnace where all high temperature metals included in the battery (i.e. nickel, manganese, etc.) melt.
The molten metals end up to a bath where they solidify during casting. As for low temperature metals (i.e. cadmium and zinc), they are separated during the melting process.
High temperature metals, including nickel, manganese, etc.
Low temperature metals, including cadmium, zinc, etc.
Based on their content, nickel-metal hydride batteries are considered semi-toxic. Despite this categorization, it is much preferable to drop off these batteries to your nearest drop-off bin rather than discard them with other household waste, even in small quantities.
Drying is the main element of NiMH batteries recycling process. More specifically, before the beginning of recycling process, all plastics are removed. Then a totally controlled drying process, in terms of temperature and time, is applied.
Drying is used to remove moisture from the batteries. The "moisture" comes from potassium hydroxide (KOH) electrolyte and H2O included in them. Following drying, battery cells are directed to alloy manufacturing or stainless steel industries.
Primary lithium batteries are also known as lithium-metal batteries. They own their name to metallic lithium which is their main constituent. Primary lithium batteries are mostly used in watches, hearing aids, sensors and memory backup as well as in military combat.
In terms of management, lithium metal batteries require special attention because they contain metallic lithium that reacts violently in contact with water or moisture.
If disposed in a landfill, escape of metallic lithium from crushed batteries most probably will ignite a fire. Landfill fires are difficult to handle and expose to great risk not only the environment but the whole landfill as well.
A very good way to avoid such incidents is to discharge fully the batteries prior to recycling.
It is highlighted that lithium-ion batteries for laptops and mobile phones do not contain metallic lithium.
First step of metallic lithium batteries recycling is to expose their content. This happens using either shredders or a high speed hammer according to the battery size.
The released content is then submerged in caustic water. This basic solution neutralizes the electrolytes, allowing the same time the recovery of ferrous and non ferrous metals.
The scrap metals recovered are sold to recyclers aiming to counterbalance the recycling cost of these batteries.
Following metal recovery the neutralized solution is filtered to recover carbon. The carbon recovered is pressed into sheets of carbon cake. Alternatively, cobalt can be used to recycle some of the carbon.
The lithium hydroxide in the solution is converted to lithium carbonate. Lithium carbonate is fine white powder which is used to produce lithium ingots and foil for batteries. In addition, it provides metal lithium for the manufacture of sulfur dioxide batteries.
Lithium-ion batteries may be considered almost harmless. However, their recycling is more than recommended because of the constantly increasing amounts generated.
Even though the value of the metals recovered may not cover in many cases the actual cost of recycling, environmental reasons require the recycling of Lithium-ion batteries.
The Lithium-ion batteries recycling process applied, is the same applied in Nickel-Cadmium batteries.
Alkaline batteries are called the batteries that rely on the reaction between zinc and manganese oxide. Rechargeable alkaline batteries allow reuse of specially designed cells.
Having lowered their mercury content in 1996, several authorities over the world allow their disposal in landfills. However, in regions such as California and Europe all batteries are considered hazardous waste and obey to special management rules.
Currently, recycling of alkaline cells is quite low, approximately four percent. However, efforts are made to increase this rate to forty percent by 2025.
Alkaline battery recycling is a specialized mechanical separation process.
All the recovered materials are reused in new products, to counterbalance the cost of the recycling process.

Welcome Guardians, Wild Yankees
The new Cleveland Guardians logo.
I welcome, sort of, the Cleveland Guardians, I apologize to Aroldis Chapman and Tim Tebow …geez, really?
— Maybe it's just me, but: The Cleveland baseball team was right to, after decades of insult to Native Americans, finally drop "Indians" as its mascot. The change, long overdue, takes effect next year. It might've been different if, from the beginning, the choice had been described as a tribute to Native Americans, and the resilience, strength, dignity, and courage of all America's tribes. But it wasn't. Instead of dignifietd tributes, there were goofy looking Indian cartoons on shirts, caps and anything else for sale. Then there was the guy in the bleachers beating the war drums for a rally. Lost in all of this, as it has been for centuries in America really, is a history of native Americans and the indignities they suffered at the hands of foreign settlers. So, "Indians" had to go. But "Guardians"? The team says it received about 1200 suggestions for a new mascot/nickname. This is what they came up with. The team says it's a tribute to the Guardian statues who protect motorist coming in and out of Cleveland on the Hope Memorial Bridge. OK, at least there's some connection. And it's better than the Washington football team, which now call itself the Washington football team because its nickname, "Redskins," was truly offensive. The Washington football team is still working on a new mascot. Perhaps the Atlanta Braves, Kansas City Chiefs and Chicago Blackhawks would like to join the endeavor. It"s time. Change can be difficult, but if it is handled with a sense of awareness and respect, these changes can be for the benefit of all involved. Go Guardians!
— Maybe it's just me, but: When I read a brief report that the Yankees had lost a game to the Red Sox in the bottom of the 10th inning when Boston scored two runs on no hits, but a bunch of wild pitches, I immediately thought Aroldis Chapman. I was wrong, but it doesn't mean Aaron Boone was right. Someone named Brooks Kriske was the offending party. Given a one-run lead to protect in the bottom of the 10th, Kriske started with a runner placed on second base, a little league gimmick now used by baseball, supposedly to speed up the game. It's really tacky. Anyway, Kriske threw two straight wild pitches to allow the runner to come home to tie the score. Manager Boone left the rookie in. He walked that batter. Still, with about a dozen pitchers on the roster, no sign of a replacement for the overwhelmed Kriske. Another wild pitch moved the runner to second. Now, Boone has some million-dollar arms sitting around, any one of whom could be asked at a moment's notice to just go out there to throw strikes with a little velocity and make the batter swing at the ball. Even an infielder with a good arm. But he stuck with Kriske, who threw another wild pitch moving the runner to third. He did manage to strike someone out, but the next batter hit a fly ball, the runner from third scored, the game was over. Not the kind of Yankee baseball I remember. Tacky.
— Maybe it's just me, but: Tim Tebow still trying to make a professional sports team roster strikes me as a little desperate. He's one of about 90 players in the Jacksonville Jaguars camp, looking for a position as a tight end. Of the six candidates in camp, he's probably ranked number six. At 33, the former Heisman Trophy winner at the University of Florida, former Jets, Broncos quarterback, former Mets minor-league baseball player, has apparently decided he's not quite ready to retire and make a living as a motivational speaker or, perhaps, sports broadcaster, both of which he is apparently well-qualified for. He's obviously a great example for his message of believing in yourself and having faith and courage and anything I or anyone else writes about his quest is not going to deter him, but I just wonder if all the effort doesn't just get tiring at some point. Maybe it's time to find a new challenge.

Baseball, bigots and the Hall of Fame
Curt Schilling … never one to hide his feelings
It's time for my annual turn from the front page to the back page (sports page) for some message on the meaning of life. Also, pitchers and catchers report any day now.
Typically, late January offers baseball fans an opportunity to argue (we don't debate) about who got into the Hall of Fame and who didn't and why. Last year was pretty mild, the only question being how one spiteful sports writer could've left Derek Jeter off his ballot, keeping the Yankee great from being named to the Hall unanimously of his first try. Baseball made up for that lack of drama when, in the same week, the Mets fired Carlos Beltran as their manager before he ever managed a game because he was part of a cheating scandal as a coach with the Houston Astros. Karma. So there was a lesson in good and evil on the back page.
This year, the January controversy revolved around Curt Schilling, who wasn't elected to the Hall of Fame, even though he and 71.1% of the 401 sports writers who voted thought he belonged. A player needs 75% of the ballots to get in. Schilling needed 16 more votes. A star pitcher for Arizona and Boston, he fancies himself as a bit of an outspoken character. As fate would have it, he seems to have run afoul of baseball's "character" clause. That is, he probably didn't get enough votes not because he wasn't a good enough player, but rather, because his presence in the Hall of Fame would somehow tarnish the name of Major League Baseball. He wasn't a good enough person.
A little about Schilling: His pitching credentials, in my opinion, are borderline Hall of Fame. He was a star in postseason play. I wouldn't be too put out if he got in. On the other hand, I'm not a fan of his human-being credentials. He has espoused far-right conspiracy theories, compared Muslims to Nazis, said Hillary Clinton should "be buried under a jail somewhere" and has spoken out vigorously against transgender people, among other things. He also enthusiastically endorsed a suggestion posted on social media that sports writers be hanged. (Since that's who votes on Hall of Fame candidates, this was also a stupid thing to do, in my opinion.)
But should stupidity or bigotry be reasons for disqualification from the Hall of Fame? (History says no.) And should baseball writers be the ones making that decision? These are the questions to ponder while waiting for the impeachment trial.
Schilling has asked that his name be taken off the list of next year's candidates. It would be his tenth and final year of eligibility and there's been a lot of speculation, based on the history of other players, that he probably would manage to eke out that 75%. Schilling said he'd rather put his fate in the hands of another committee, which considers umpires, managers and other non-players as well as those who did not make the hall during their eligibility period. Apparently, he feels this group wouldn't care how much he mouthed off about hanging sports writers or how much he hates Hillary and loves Donald Trump. The Board of Directors of the Hall of Fame said they would consider Schilling's request.
Of course, Schilling isn't the only one of current Hall-eligible players running up against the "character" issue. Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens, two dominant players whose Hall of Fame credentials are beyond question, also did not receive enough votes. That's because they were part of baseballs "juicing era," when many players used steroids and other substances to enhance their performances on the field. To me, this would come under the heading of cheating, which one would think would qualify as being harmful to the image of baseball. Being not of good character. But neither man was penalized by major league baseball for using performance enhancing drugs and both have been on the Hall of Fame eligibility list for nine years, just like Schilling.
It would seem to me, if baseball wants to have a character clause in deciding who gets into the Hall of Fame, it should apply that clause beforehand and decide which players do not even belong on the annual list, rather than leaving it to sportswriters. (I can't think of a more qualified group to do the actual voting, as has been suggested.) That makes the writers' task much simpler. If he's on the list, just judge him on his on-field performance and nothing else. His character is OK with us. In that case, Bonds and Clemens would be shoe-ins.
Schilling to me would still remain borderline, a man with far-right extremist views who was also a very good pitcher. Someone who, ironically, was removed by ESPN as its commentator on the 2015 Little League World Series because he posted something on social media comparing Muslims to Nazis and who the next year was fired by ESPN for an anti-transgender post on social media. In those cases, I think ESPN made the right decision, for the good name of baseball and for them as journalists.
So, this year's lesson from the sports pages: If you want to be fussy about what kind of people can come into your home, you set the rules and you make the decision. Don't give some strangers that responsibility. Also, if you're going to shoot your mouth off with hateful nonsense, be prepared for the consequences.
For me, Schilling can go to Cooperstown or not, just don't ask me to have lunch with that bigoted, loudmouth jerk.

Currently, 34 individuals – such as alumni, staff, faculty and friends of the university – serve as mentors for the first class of UNCG Guarantee scholars.
The UNCG Guarantee program, detailed in the most recent issue of UNCG Magazine, is a need-based scholarship program. The goal is to help in-state students graduate from UNCG in four years with little or no debt.
Next year, 69 mentors will be needed for the 69 scholars.
Mentor orientation will be Aug. 18-19.

UNCG will invest a million dollars in a new program to promote inclusiveness and diversity among its graduate students. One million dollars of a $6 million anonymous gift to UNCG will endow the UNCG Graduate School Inclusiveness Awards.
Fellowships and smaller assistantships will go to outstanding master's or doctoral students whose presence contributes to inclusiveness at the university. Each graduate program can nominate one student per year. Final selections will be made by the dean of the graduate school upon the recommendation of a faculty review committee. Recipients must be fully admitted to a graduate degree program and maintain a 3.0 grade point average.
Inclusiveness is one of five central values in the UNCG Strategic Plan 2009-14. This document calls for a commitment to inclusiveness.
UNCG has built on a tradition of commitment to access and diversity. Its origins in 1891 can be traced to a crusade for the education of women by the university's founder and first president, Charles Duncan McIver.
By fall semester 2008, nearly one-quarter (23.7 percent) of UNCG graduate students were from underrepresented ethnic groups (African-Americans, American Indians, Asian/Pacific Islanders and Hispanics). In 2008, the majority of graduate students (56.9 percent) were between the ages of 25 and 39, but nearly 10 percent were 50 and older.
The university has defined "inclusiveness" broadly to include a variety of life experiences that would increase the diversity of experiences of students in graduate programs. These factors might include low-income background, a history of overcoming disadvantage or discrimination, nontraditional age for a student, membership in underrepresented group in a field or discipline, status as a first-generation graduate student, cultural differences such as may arise from being foreign-born or raised within a distinct culture, and unique work or service experience.
The Council of Graduate Schools, a national organization that promotes the advancement of graduate education and research, has called for strengthening diversity and inclusiveness efforts in graduate study as a central element in a national talent development policy. Members of underrepresented groups are much less likely than others in the population to complete graduate degrees.
The CGS reported that in 2005 nearly 40 percent of elementary and secondary students in the United States were from underrepresented groups. However, only 12 percent of research doctorates and 10 percent of doctorates in STEM fields awarded in 2006 went to members of underrepresented groups.
The $6 million anonymous gift, the largest in UNCG's history, came in early 2009. The donor designated $5 million for student aid.
The Dean of Students Office helps students navigate through issues – and helps staff and faculty throughout the campus learn how to better support students. Sometimes it's simply a matter of listening and pointing the student in the right direction. Often, more is involved. Many around campus want to know how they can help.
To that end, the office will offer a spring workshop series designed for faculty and staff, to foster this culture of care on campus.
"Our outreach focuses on giving faculty and staff the tools necessary not only for them to support students but so they feel supported and well equipped to deal with difficult situations inside and outside of the classroom," says Mary Anderson, an assistant dean of students.
Visit http://deanofstudents.uncg.edu/ to register to attend any or all of these workshops. For additional information, contact the Dean of Students Office at 4-5514.
During this two-hour training for UNCG faculty and staff, participants learn about types of distress for students, recognizing signs of distress, strategies for reaching out to students, active listening skills, effective referral, and the resources available on campus to assist students. By creating an environment of support, students in distress may seek help before issues rise to the crisis level. After completing the training, each participant is given a decal/sticker with the "UNCG Cares" logo to display in his or her office.
Students are expected to assist in maintaining a classroom environment that is conducive to learning. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for students to be uncivil and verbally aggressive in the classroom toward faculty and their peers. This behavior is not only disruptive, but if not addressed, could have irreversible consequences on student learning. The Dean of Students Office may have some solutions. Come learn some useful techniques on how to address disruptive behavior in the classroom and share with your peers best practices for dealing with disruptive students.
Students often balance many challenging personal issues and academic demands. These issues and demands often facilitate academic misconduct among students. To cheat or not to cheat….to plagiarize or not to plagiarize… those are questions many college students ask themselves quite often. The purpose of this workshop is to engage faculty in education discourse concerning academic misconduct among college students; UNCG's effort to promote academic integrity in the classroom; and best practices for reducing academic misconduct.
The Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008 allows more veterans to enter colleges and universities to pursue their education. With concerns of veterans returning home with serious psychological and emotions issues, colleges are trying to ensure their campuses have services that are adequate to meet the needs of these students. UNCG Cares about VETS will provide a discussion about today's veteran, barriers preventing student veterans from staying in college, and on-campus support for UNCG student veterans.
Not only caring – but showing that caring in productive ways – can make a big difference in students' lives and their ultimate achievement. Students see the UNCG Cares sticker near the door of many staff and faculty offices around campus.

Be Active NC There is a new partnership with UNCG and Be Active NC. Be Active is currently leading a statewide initiative to get more people, more active, more often. They will be launching a campaign in the spring to find one million North Carolinians who are committed to being active. In order to help them with this initiative, Be Active NC began looking for partners to expand their reach. In late October, Be Active NC began a new partnership with the UNCG to cover 12 counties in the Triad region. The Partnership is housed out of the Office of Academic Outreach, and will promote the mission of Be Active NC: to empower all North Carolinians to live healthy, physically active lifestyles by helping them become more active, more often in that 12 county region by supporting existing efforts and collaborating to begin new ones.

Financial Aid Awareness Week Feb. 15-17 More than half of the students enrolled at UNCG are taking advantage of the financial aid opportunities available to help pay for the cost of a college education. However, many other students think that they will never qualify for financial assistance, so they do not even bother applying. There are many opportunities for financial aid. Financial Aid Awareness Week may help in spreading the word. The UNCG Financial Aid Office will have information tables set up in EUC and the Cafeteria at mid-day beginning Feb. 15. Also, students may also receive assistance in filing their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on FAFSA Day. This will be held on Saturday, Feb. 18, throughout the state. UNCG will not be a FAFSA Day site but there will be other places in the Greensboro area. Visit College Foundation of North Carolina at www.cfnc.org for information on locations of the event, required documentation and registration for FAFSA day. Students may begin filing their FAFSA for the 2011-12 school year now. Students must file a FAFSA each school year they are planning to receive financial aid, even if your aid consists only of student loans. The FAFSA priority deadline for UNCG is March 1.

The Hermetic Searcher brass pendulum is uniquely designed. By removing the top the Hermetic reveals a smaller inner pendulum and it also contains a large Witness Chamber thereby increasing it's functionality to perform any type of dowsing task.
The Hermetic Brass Searcher pendulum is made of brass and contains a nested smaller brass pendulum within and a large Witness Chamber.
It is a relatively heavy pendulum at approximately 44 grams compared to the Clear view pendulum (10.0 gm) giving it a solid and reliable feel when in use.
The Hermetic Searcher brass pendulum can be used for all types of dowsing assignments making this a good pendulum for any serious dowser.
The Hermetic Searcher pendulum can be used for any inquiries, map, chart, healing, "searching and seeking" assignments and due to its sturdy construction will be true under a variety of conditions, indoors and out.
The Hermetic Searcher brass pendulum is like two pendulums in one: when the top is unscrewed another smaller pendulum will be found within along with a Witness Chamber.


As soon as I walked in, I had that weird feeling that I had been there before....AS MODESTO!!!!!
What a happy surprise...getting to try "the new version" of Modesto on my day off. We were there at lunch time and had the place to ourselves.
Since we were there for lunch, we mostly opted for salads and sandwiches, which also includes a pick two option for soup and salad.
I actually did a two-fer...trying two different salads. Fried green tomatoes is a rare treat, although there were just four tomatoes on top of a regular salad. Yet, I really enjoyed the rest of the salad since it came with house-made cheese and black olives!
Then I got my favorite...chopped salad, which comes with even more of my favorite veggie goodies like chickpeas, artichokes, green olives, and white cheddar.
The Mona's Burger is actually a double patty with smoked provolone in the middle, balsamic onion jam, tomato confit, and their "Mona's sauce".
And the side of fries are all hand cut potato wedges!
The meatball sandwich was just huge...covered in melted provolone and Mona's homemade tomato sauce.
Only Patience went traditional with the adult-sized order (meaning two meals) of Spaghetti with meatballs. The pasta is made fresh there and had such thick noodles!
I definitely hope to get back there to try their pizza and pasta!


Lectures tended to be recorded in full in the journals. Around ¼ of them concerned spinning and related topics. The next most popular topic was dyeing and finishing: Charles Whewell (Professor of Textile Technology at Leeds University) gave 5 lectures in this area. Raw materials weaving and management each accounted for around 10% of the topics; there were 5 lectures on research and even 5 on design and fashion. 2 lectures covered the old favourite: oils, fats and waxes. Noticeably absent from the list is any reference to testing or quality control. Wool was covered very widely and there were some lectures concerned with man-made fibres. Whewell's lecture in 1957-8 on finishing of new blended fabrics referred to: Fibro; Fibrolane; Tricel; Terylene; Perlon; Ardil; Vinyon; Rilsan; Orlon; Acrilan; Courtelle; Dynel; Rhovyl; Taslan; Banlon (these were the days of branded fibres) but there was little reference to cotton.
Other notable speakers have been J B Speakman, British Nylon Spinners, P P Townend; Joe Hyman, Marks and Spencer, Isidor Glasman, David Brunnschweiler, David Finlay-Maxwell, Brian Haggas, Lord Hanson, James Sugden, Subhash Anand, Dominic Dormeuil, Elizabeth Peacock, James Haigh, Clive Jeanes and Zandra Rhodes.
• Could average marketing methods be improved?
• Is a policy of controlled prices for raw material and cloth to the benefit of the industry?
• It is increasingly difficult to find workers to do the dirty jobs – should such jobs be better paid?
• Is there any future selling to an export market which is steadily increasing and developing its own manufacturing?
• Does the future of the export trade lie in increasing the sale of high quality specialities?
A 1948-9 lecture on the Peralta machine was preceded by the comment: "It is claimed that the 'Peralta' widens considerably the choice of raw materials and that there is no longer any necessity to carbonise wool whatever the amount of impurity".
The same season saw a design-based lecture, the introduction from the Chair stating: "I don't quite know what Mr Kenningham (the speaker) will cover in this lecture tonight, but from the title ('Wool knowledge – technique and handicrafts') I think it is going to be the type of talk we have been wanting for a long time".
By contrast, as 'an experiment' in 1950-1, the Committee tried to arrange a lecture to be of interest to 'members' ladies' ('The clothes doctor' – a review of cleaning clothes). Poor weather severely restricted the attendance and the 'experiment' was repeated, the same lecture being given in 1954-5 under the heading 'Ladies' Night'. Reports on these events were highly patronising. In 1950-1, the ladies 'appeared to find the lecture interesting'; even more patronising was the introduction from the Chair prior to the 1954-5 lecture: "The ladies will perhaps forgive me if I do occasionally lapse into technical language".
Ladies' evenings then became a fairly regular feature of the Society's programme: at least 10 took place from 1958-9 onwards, the last one being in 1989-90. The evenings consisted mainly of fashion shows, at the Town Hall, George Hotel, Rushworth's and the Regent Ballroom. The 1961-2 evening included 'a non-technical' talk. The 1986-7 evening centred on a design competition, awards and display, sponsored by Lurex.
Some lecturers were a little less knowledgeable than others. One, in 1950-1, answered a question following his talk on modern developments in woollen yarn manufacturing by confessing that had never heard of the Pacific Converter.
In the same session, in discussions following H S Bell's lecture on knitting, opinion was that it might not be in the industry's interest to introduce ladderproof stockings, as they would last too long so would not need replacing very often.
A fascinating lecture in 1955-6 was given by F C Tryhorn (Forensic Science Laboratory, Harrogate). He referred to several cases where the identification of textiles had clinched the case. These included a strand of worsted thread, one inch long, found a on a victim, which was deduced to come from a tear. A man with an appropriate rip in his suit was found guilty. Fibres from a suspect's fingernails matched those on a garment worn by a victim. Dogs accused of worrying sheep were given an emetic and wool fibres looked for in their vomit as well as their excrement!
A question to S Morse-Brown (IWS) in 1956-7, related to his talk on fashion in wool referred to the effect of having a television set as a formal part of a room on its furnishing and decoration. He was asked which colours were restful ones (blue and grey) and, somewhat oddly, for an explanation of Picasso's work and whether he thought that French styles had gone too far. He gave non-committal answers to both. He said that women have a more highly developed colour sense than men.
In the 1950s, work study was seen as the answer to industry's woes and there were 2 lectures on this topic. After one of them, in 1956-7, the Trade Union speaker was asked about equal pay for men and women and said that it ought to apply. This is still being argued about some 55 years later.

PANAJI: A delay in notifying the draft rules under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act (RERA) and the absence of an online portal for receiving RERA applications from builders, has promoted the state government to extend the deadline for ongoing real estate projects to December 31.
This is the second time that the Goa government has relaxed the cut-off for projects that are yet to receive their completion or occupancy certificate to register with the RERA authority.
"The date for acceptance of applications from ongoing projects under RERA has been extended to December 31, with no penalty being levied till then," a senior government official said.
According to Section 59 (1) of the RERA Act, a builder who fail to register under Section 3 of the Act, which deals with registration, selling and marketing of new and ongoing projects, will be liable to pay penalty of 10-20% of the project's estimated cost. Realtors, are of the view that the extension is required because they have little time to register their projects if the rules are notified this month.
Officials with the directorate of municipal administration said that the absence of the online portal for applications was one of the reasons for the extension that will give realtors till December 31 to complete their projects apply for occupancy or completion certificates.
A Lok Sabha committee on subordinate legislation, called to deliberate over the implementation of RERA, has expressed concern over relaxation and dilution of RERA in various states, including Goa. The committee is chaired by BJP Lok Sabha MP Dilipkumar Mansukhlal Gandhi. "The committee express their dismay over the fact that even after a lapse of one year and two months, many of the states have not notified the Rules so far," the committee report said.
The committee went on to say that the Real Estate (Regulation & Development) Act was a "landmark reform" for the real estate sector and "its successful enactment largely depends upon the timely framing of the Rules under the Act by all the states".
The committee report, which was presented in the Lok Sabha on August 10, also said that Goa, Manipur and West Bengal had not provided any information to the committee.
The Union ministry of housing and urban poverty alleviation has written two letters to Goa asking for the state to ensure that the rules are drafted and notified quickly.


Our research for Thames Valley Berkshire LEP and the six Berkshire local authorities focused on two main areas: to fully understand the economic geography of the Berkshire sub-region, and to find out exactly how much land is required to meet potential employment growth over the next 20 years.
First, we identified three core Functional Economic Market Areas (FEMAs) that operate across Berkshire. Setting out exactly how these reflect the different drivers of local economies, we examined how businesses, sectors and property markets operate across administrative boundaries. For the second part of our study, we assessed the amount of land required to support future economic development in each FEMA and local authority area.
We're delighted to support the Thames Valley Berkshire LEP and the six Berkshire local authorities in their analysis of the Thames Valley economy and how they will shape the future economic growth needs of the area.
