Knowledge is power. Luckily for you, you are in the digital era, and you can access as much information as you need. That goes all the way from how to add VPN to iPhone to how the New York Legislature operates. Focusing on legislation, New York is a state in the North-eastern United States, and one of the thirteen colonies that were initially formed in the United States.
The New York Legislature is composed of two houses, which play the role of the legislature in the state. Here is what you need to know about the New York Legislature.
The two legislative houses are for the Assembly and the Senate. Members of the two houses are elected in November of every leap year. All the members of the legislative houses are citizens of the United States and residents of New York State for a minimum of five years. The Assembly holds 1501 members whereas the numbers in the Senate may vary.
The leadership roles in the New York Legislature is held by a Speaker and the President. The Assembly is led by the speaker whereas the Senate is led by the President: The Lieutenant Governor.
What are the roles of the President and the Speaker? Well, they are tasked with overseeing the assignment of committees and other leadership positions. They are also responsible for controlling the agenda of the chambers.
What constitutional powers does the New York legislature have? The legislature has been granted the ability to make law by the constitution. For instance, the governor is allowed to veto a bill. The Legislature, on the other hand, has the power to override the particular bill. Therefore, it would be correct to say that their power to make laws is subject to the governor's power to veto a bill.
The legislature also has the power to propose constitutional amends through the action of a majority vote. When the Legislature proposes an amendment, it only becomes valid of a referendum approves of it through the act of voting.
The Legislative Bill Drafting Commission (LBDC) is tasked with drafting legislation. How does this happen? For one, the LBDC advises on the constitutionality of the legislation. More so, it advises on the effect of the proposed legislation. It is the job of the commission to also conduct research on the same and publish and maintain legislation documents. The commission constitutes of two commissioners, which are one, the commissioner for Administration and the other one for Operations. They are both appointed by the leaders of the legislation, which are the President of the Senate and Speaker for the Assembly.Above are the main areas of the New York legislature that you need to be in familiar with.

An Ed Davis Appreciation Post
Zach Cronin
Ed Davis isn't a star. He's not a household name. He doesn't have crazy physical attributes, otherworldly athleticism or a robust skill set that strikes fear into his defenders. But that doesn't mean he's not a critical piece for Kenny Atkinson and the Brooklyn Nets.
The Nets were one of the most surprising teams this season. After accumulating a 42-40 record, they drew a matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers in the first round of the playoffs. They trail 3-1 ahead of Tuesday's Game 5. Regardless, D'Angelo Russell and Spencer Dinwiddie have turned heads with their improvement. Russell's in the running for Most Improved Player while Dinwiddie has made an outstanding case to be the Sixth Man of the Year.
Then there's Joe Harris, the three-point shootout champion who is arguably the best marksman in the league. Caris LeVert has been excellent as well in the wake of that ghastly lower leg injury he suffered earlier this season.
Lurking in the shadows, however, is Davis. Ed Davis spent the previous three seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers. He came to Brooklyn last summer on a one-year deal worth $4.4 million. A larger payday is coming. Through 81 regular season games, Davis cemented himself as one of the NBA's most prolific rebounders. With a per game average of 8.6 rebounds, Davis appears to be modest on the glass. However, he only gets about 18 minutes per game. If we were to extrapolate that to per 36 minutes, his mark rises to 17.3 which is second to Hassan Whiteside among players who have accumulated 500 minutes, according to Basketball-Reference.
His rebound percentages are just as impressive. Davis may not see much time, but he makes the most of it. He boasts a rebounding percentage of 25.2. In other words, Davis grabs a quarter of all available rebounds. These boards aren't easy to grasp, either. Davis' activity on the glass projected to be a huge factor in Brooklyn's series against Philadelphia.
Despite being a bit undersized, Davis has the intangibles necessary to give the Nets a fighting shot against the Joel Embiid and Boban Marjanovic. After the first game, those predictions seemed to come true. In 25 minutes, Davis hauled in 16 rebounds and gave Embiid fits on the defensive end. Unfortunately, an ankle injury has since hampered him. Davis played about 16 minutes total in Games 2 and 3 and missed Game 4. His status for Game 5 is uncertain.
Even so, none of this washes away what he did during the regular season. Brooklyn is an above-average rebounding team. But they had a difficult time keeping opponents off the glass. The Nets allowed 46.2 total rebounds a night. Of those, 11 were offensive. Davis kept the latter number from inflating, but it's a tremendous amount of work. According to NBA.com, Davis, on average, comes down with 3.6 contested rebounds per game. That's the highest number among players averaging 20 minutes or fewer. He works his tail off to protect the paint. It's a role he's embraced. Ed Davis' tenacity and instincts translate to the offensive end as well. For the year, he hauled in 216 offensive boards.
It's remarkable. His total was the league's 15th-highest, but remember his lack of minutes. Of the 23 guys who have at least 150 offensive rebounds, Davis averages the fewest minutes. He, Jakob Poeltl and Kevon Looney are the only players on that leaderboard who's per game average is less than 20. As a result, Davis is one of the leaders in offensive rebound percentage. At 15.7, he trails only Whiteside and Andre Drummond.
The way Davis plays isn't glamorous. It's gritty. He occupies a role that every team needs: a blue collar guy who does all of the dirty work. Brooklyn doesn't run the offense through Davis, nor does he expect them too. Most of his points come on put backs. The rest come on cuts or in the pick-and-roll, which is excellent because the Nets have a slew of shot creators who don't need to worry about getting Davis involved. If the ball comes his way, he'll convert. If it doesn't, he'll attack the glass. Consequently, he has more energy to expend on defense.
Atkinson has Davis as the full-time backup center, a position where he's a bit undersized. Davis stands 6-foot-10 but weighs 225 pounds. Regardless, he's highly intelligent and always in the right place at the right time, two attributes that offset his inability to create turnovers. When Davis is on the court, the Nets boast a defensive rating of 101.3. When he sits, it tanks, plummeting to 110.1. The decrease is because of Davis' versatility. He's athletic enough to hold his ground on the perimeter while also altering shots around the basket. He may not be elite in that regard, but the intangibles help make up for it. The concoction results in a balanced defender who boasts the league's second-highest DRPM.
Ed Davis isn't going to win any awards. He won't land on any All-NBA teams. There will be chatter about him this summer, but nothing more than average. And that's OK. Davis is an outstanding role player. He impacts the game just as much as D'Angelo Russell or Spencer Dinwiddie, and, because of his help, the Brooklyn Nets have reached a level few expected.

Summary: Windows PowerShell MVP, Sean Kearney, shows how to use Windows PowerShell cmdlets to search Active Directory.
Because that vbscript, was not that easy you see.
He sat there a chatting, with Mister Stu Blue.
A wonderful technology, we call Powershell.
Unlocking divisions, off he did go.
As they happily worked in ones and in twos.
As they scripted, they work with nary a word.
In their happy go lucky fun little way.
A nattering issue that was stuck in his head.
But a split of its assets would be carried away.
Such a stumbler…Mr. Finch had just had to laugh.
"All that typing away! Mistakes could be made!
"To export all that content, in Excel it could fly.
To the Blues working below, oh what a ride!
Was a network admin, who's name it was Hugh.
Kicking a RhymeOMatic, right in the can.
Mr. Finch looked on as Hugh entered a line on his computer.
In moments, Mr. Finch was staring at an exported spreadsheet of all the users, and he could see fields available, including whether their accounts were disabled or enabled and the dates that they were created. He was impressed, but then a thought struck him.
Mr. Finch watched as Hugh ran the cmdlet. It produced a standard validation box on the screen.
Mr. Finch almost fell back. Not only was Windows PowerShell pulling down the information, but he noted that Hugh was doing it on his Windows 7 Premium laptop, which was not even on the domain.
Mr. Finch could not wait to tackle the problem. This Windows PowerShell seemed to make everything easy again!
Mr. Finch ran with a smile, and tore up the floor.
With PowerShell here, it wouldn't take all night.
Sean continues to share his creativeness with us tomorrow in Part 3.

Q: Enter a line break in node text in Latex Tikz library I've just started using Latex to produce a maths-heavy document. I wanted to include a probability tree and found the Tikz library. The first bit of the code for my tree looks like:
%To create probability trees, use tikz package
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{trees}

% Insert a probability tree showing first level only
% -------------------------------------------------------------
% Set the overall layout of the tree
\tikzstyle{level 1}=[level distance=3.5cm, sibling distance=4.0cm]
\tikzstyle{level 2}=[level distance=3.5cm, sibling distance=2cm]

% Define styles for bags and leafs
\tikzstyle{bag} = [text centered]

% Draw probability tree
\begin{tikzpicture}[grow=right, sloped]
\node[bag] {}
    child {
        node[bag] {Not diseased $\left( D^- \right)$}
            edge from parent
            node[below]  {$0.90$}
    }
    child {
        node[bag] {Diseased $\left( D^+ \right)$}
            edge from parent
            node[above] {Prevalence}
            node[below]  {$0.10$}
    };
\end{tikzpicture} \\

The resulting tree looks a bit like this:
             Diseased (D+)
           /
    Prev /
       / 0.10
     /
     \
       \
   0.90  \
           \
             Not diseased (D-)

... if you get my drift.
I would like to be able to enter a line break in the node text so that the (D+) and (D-) appear underneath. I've tried using \\ and \newline but to no avail. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

A: Taken from the Tikz Qtree documentation:

In Qtree, it was allowed to use a line break (\\) inside a node. TikZ nodes by default don't allow this, but the align option (in PGF/TikZ version 2.1 or later) enables it as a side effect.
Thanks to Alan Munn for figuring this out. Prior to PGF/TikZ version 2.1, the fix was to use the options text width=2em,text centered.

A: Starting from your code,
\documentclass[multi=false,border=2mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{trees}

\tikzstyle{level 1}=[level distance=3.5cm, sibling distance=4.0cm]
\tikzstyle{level 2}=[level distance=3.5cm, sibling distance=2cm]

\tikzstyle{bag} = [align=center]

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}[grow=right, sloped]
\node[bag] {}
    child {
        node[bag] {Not diseased\\ $\left( D^- \right)$} %% 1
            edge from parent
            node[below]  {$0.90$}
    }
    child {
        node[bag] {Diseased\\ $\left( D^+ \right)$} %% 2
            edge from parent
            node[above] {Prevalence}
            node[below]  {$0.10$}
    };
\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document}

makes the job: notice that I only changed \tikzstyle{bag} from [text centered] to [align=center] and added \\ in lines marked %% 1 and  %% 2.
The resulting tree:

Sandoval Plea Agreement
In August 2017, Sandoval discussed with CW-1, SafeSpeed`s representative, the allocation of the annual donation into small amounts, according to the plea agreement. CW-1 told Sandoval that it would not be a problem because the company president "didn`t want the article to "grow," which means raising a red flag," according to the plea agreement. According to the food, Sandoval also undervalued his income from 2012 to 2016, although the plea agreement does not reveal how much. The former senator admitted to "corrupt activities with other officials and accepting money from others in exchange for using his position as a senator from the state of Ilinois to try to serve these individuals and their business interests," the plea says. Former Illinois Senator Martin Sandoval leaves the Dirksen Federal Courthouse in downtown Chicago on Tuesday (January 28th) after pleading guilty to corruption and tax evasion by the Federal Confederation. Manuel Martinez/WBEZ hides caption "We are shocked by the information contained in today`s pleading agreement and by the betrayal of the public trust of both Sen. Sandoval and a person interested in the company who has not been authorized by the company to participate in illegal behavior or to make commitments or contributions on behalf of the company or its officers. It would appear that both people committed crimes without SafeSpeed violating knowledge and not only the law, but also the safeSpeed culture. We are shocked and saddened by this statement. We are committed to investigating these issues and sharing all the information we find with the federal authorities. We applaud the government for the eradication of corruption. Federal prosecutor Sandoval also took additional bribes related to "corrupt activities with other officials" in exchange for his position as state senator and chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee to benefit other individuals and their business interests.
These other officials are not mentioned in the plea. "He cannot speak on certain parts of other investigations than what is written in this plea," Lausch said. Caught on tape saying he would go "balls on the walls for everything you ask me," former Illinois State Sen. Martin Sandoval pleaded guilty Tuesday to federal corruption and tax evasion charges related to his support for the red camera industry. Prosecutors say Sandoval has admitted to taking more than $250,000 in bribes in a scheme with at least five people. Sandoval also pleaded guilty to filing income tax returns that undervalued his income between 2012 and 2017 – and reduced the commitment by more than $72,000 over the IRS and more than $13,000 over the state. The U.S. law firm said Sandoval had agreed to refund the taxes. On August 29, 2018, they met again at a restaurant in Burr Ridge where Sandoval took $15,000 "that represented funds to advance SafeSpeed`s interests in the Senate," according to Sandoval`s plea. The plea did not identify the anmundatic camera store that participated in the bribery program, but merely referred to it as "Company A".
But Sandoval slipped in reference to Safe Speed LLC when Wood asked the court to explain his misconduct in his own words. CHICAGO (CBS) – Former Illinois state state Sen. Martin Sandoval pleaded guilty Tuesday to acting as a "protector" to red camera company SafeSpeed in exchange for thousands of dollars in bribes, and is cooperating with federal lawyers in a wide-ranging investigation into the corruption of SafeSpeed, Comed and others.

I Knew Coming Back To Man United Will Be Challenging, Says Ronaldo
Manchester United forward, Cristiano Ronaldo, has admitted the team is not as good as it should be this season.
The 36-year-old returned to Old Trafford last August but the Red Devils continue to struggle this campaign.
Their poor form led to the sack of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who has been replaced by interim manager Ralf Rangnick.
"I knew that my coming here would be challenging.
"My expectations haven't changed much since I arrived but the truth is that we are not as good as we should be.
"I say that on an individual and collective level as well. I think Manchester could be better in the Premier League, we could be playing better, but we have room to grow. It's a new year. We have to think positively, believe it's going to be a good year," Ronaldo told ESPN Brasil.

According to the Kentucky Waterways Alliance, there are an estimated 6,000 shale gas wells producing between 50 and 70 billion cubic feet of gas annually in Kentucky. Many of the wells are located in the Big Sandy gas field of Floyd, Knott, Letcher, Martin, and Pike Counties.
According to state regulators, the shales in Kentucky have more clay than most U.S. shales, discouraging hydrofracking in the state because water makes clay formations swell, inhibiting the release of gas. Therefore most Kentucky gas wells are drilled using pressurized air circulated through the drill pipe and hydraulic fracture stimulation of natural gas wells using liquid nitrogen as the main ingredient.
Kentucky drillers use high-volume fracking, but more common are methods injecting nitrogen gas underground.
By 2012 the state had produced 6 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
Shale gas production began in Kentucky in 1892 with the drilling of wells along Beaver Creek in Floyd county.
The Devonian-Mississippian New Albany Shale lies in the southeast Illinois Basin, encompassing Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky. The New Albany has been a site for gas production for more than 100 years, but activity has increased with the development of new technologies for drilling. Wells are 250 to 2000 feet deep.
Map of unconventional wells in Kentucky, FracTracker.
In May and July 2013, a worker for natural gas company Eagle Well Service in Eastern Kentucky claimed he dumped fracking wastewater into the Big Sandy River, under the orders of his bosses. The Big Sandy snakes through eastern Kentucky, acting as the natural divide between the state and West Virginia. When the state went out to investigate the claims they said they smelled strong petroleum and chloride odors in the area, and saw a sheen in the water. Kentucky regulators say the case is under investigation.
A 2013 joint study from the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released found that a fracking fluid spill in Kentucky in 2007 likely caused the widespread death of several types of fish.
Kentucky-based oil and gas exploration company Nami Resources Company spilled fracking fluid from four well sites into the Acorn Fork Creek in southeastern Kentucky in May and June 2007. Not long after, nearly all the aquatic life in the area died, including at least two fish from a threatened species. Chemicals released during the spill included hydrochloric acid.
After studying samples of the water and bodies of green sunfish and creek chub, government researchers concluded the spill acidified the stream and increased concentrations of heavy metals including aluminum and iron. Fish exposed to the water developed gill lesions and showed signs of liver and spleen damage.
The Bluegrass Pipeline—put forward as a joint venture by Williams Companies Inc. and Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP—would carry an estimated 200,000 to 400,000 barrels a day of natural gas liquids from western Pennsylvania to Texas, running through 18 Kentucky counties. NGLSs ("wet" natural gas) include ethane, butane, propane, methane, and various solid chemicals, which would likely be shipped to overseas markets. Unless maintained under high pressure, the substances are highly flammable and explosive. Construction is expected to be completed by late 2015.

We left Europe because we don't like your monarchies and such. We think government is generally the root of all evil, and we're going to do everything in our power to limit it as much as possible.
A group of people we'll call "Congress" are going to make the laws.
Half of Congress will be the House of Representatives. They have to be at least 25 years old, been a citizen for 7 of them, and must live in the state they represent. They've got two years to get it right, or they're out. They'll represent no more than 30,000 people, and they'll elect a speaker to oversee it all.
The other half we'll call the Senate. There will be two senators per state. They've got six years to do their best before they can be sent packing, but they'll be divided into three groups and we'll vote for a third of them every two years. Since they get longer terms, we might as well require they be 30 years old and have been here for nine years.
I know we haven't gotten to it yet, but there will be a Vice President's position talked about later, and this person will be the president of the Senate. For some odd reason, he won't vote unless there's a tie.
The Senate will handle throwing out any bums we uncover along the way.
The Congress must meet at least once every year on the first Monday in December.
The Congress will govern themselves, punish their own members if need be, keep a journal in case something important happens and we need to remember what it was. Unless we think it's some top secret stuff that we don't want anyone to know about of course, then we'll keep that on the down-low.
We'll go ahead and pay these folks for their service.
The HoR (House of Representatives) will take care of taxes. Once they write something, they'll send it to the Senate. If it gets their OK, it goes to the president, who we also haven't mentioned yet but we promise we will, and he can either sign it or tell them to get bent. If he tells them to get bent, 2/3 of them may agree to tell him to get bent instead and that they're passing it whether he likes it or not.
Congress will be the United States' accounting firm, currency printer, security guards, and any other things we think we need to address.
We're going to severely limit our powers, we won't go back on our word, and there will never be any kings or queens up in here.
Hey states, you don't get to override this stuff—so don't try it.
Remember that president we mentioned? Well now it's official, we'll have one. He's got four years to do something awesome. If he does, you can let him do it for another four years. He has to be 35 years old, and he must be born here. Because this is a big country and Al Gore hasn't invented the internet yet, we'll do this convoluted system we'll call the Electoral College. Al Gore will be mad that he didn't invent the internet sooner, because this Electoral College will totally give him the shaft later.
This president will swear in front of everyone not to mess up. If he does, the Congress can, and will, impeach him.
The President will be the head cheese for our military. He'll appoint judges to the Supreme Court, appoint ambassadors, and fill other vacancies as required.
Once a year, he'll give a speech about how things are going. Presidents love giving speeches.
He better not commit a crime or he's out.
We're going to have a Supreme Court made up of nine justices. They will decide whether any laws that states, cities, counties, etc. pass violate this document. Some of them will try to legislate from the bench, but we really frown upon that. They will not handle trials though. Those must be done in front of a jury. Once appointed, they are in until they choose to retire because we don't want them making decisions based on what they think will get them reelected.
If someone is suspected of treason, we need at least two people to have witnessed it or they'll have to confess.
The states have to trust and respect each other.
If someone commits a crime and flees the state, the state he flees to must send him back.
We decide when a new state is admitted to the union, and you can't have a state within a state. So don't try it.
If someone tries to invade a state, don't worry, we've got it covered.
This document is set in stone unless 2/3 of us agree that we screwed up or left something out. In which case, we'll unset it in stone while we make the necessary changes. Then those changes will be set in stone unless 2/3…and so on.
If we borrow money, trust us; we'll pay it back.
The laws we pass are law of the land. Know your role, states!
We will swear that we'll adhere to this stuff too since we're going to make the president do it.
There are nine states currently and they all agree to this.
I know we said we want to severely limit the size of government, but let's set some ground rules.
Believe what you want, say what you want, and if the press wants to run with it, that's fine. If you don't like something, feel free to protest, just be cool about it and play nice.
We like guns. It's only fair if you want one, you can have one too.
A soldier can't squat on your land unless we're at war, then he might do so if the law allows it.
We promise not to invade your privacy unless the courts determine it appears you may have done something wrong.
If we think you did something really repugnant, we'll put together a grand jury for that.
If we try you for something, and you beat the rap, we can't try you again for it.
We can't take your life, liberty, or property unless you do something wrong. If we commandeer your property, you'll be paid fair market value for it.
If we lock you up for a crime, you have the right to be tried pretty quickly so you don't rot in purgatory. Twelve people we pick totally at random will decide if you did it or not (if you prefer). We'll make sure you know what it is we think you did, and you are guaranteed to have someone who actually knows something about law helping you.
If you have a legal issue that's worth less than $20, don't bother us. We have more important things to do.
If you do get arrested and/or convicted, we promise to be fair about it.
Assume that you have the right to do whatever the heck you want unless we say otherwise as opposed to the notion that you don't have the right unless we say it's OK. It's a "Free country" thing.
If we don't write laws about something on our end, the states can if they deem necessary. It just can't conflict with something in this document.
We the federal government won't interfere with the state governments unless they violate this document—then we're going to have words.
Remember that Electoral College thing we talked about earlier? This is how it works. We'll pick a handful of people from each state and see who they like. Then based off that, each state will pick their president of choice. Based on our best guess of how many people are in a particular state, a number of votes will be issued for that candidate per state. It's kind of convoluted, we know, and once the internet comes, it'll seem pretty silly. But we like tradition, and we may keep it around anyway.
Hey slave owners. Cut it out. You can't do that here anymore. Only we can do that, and only if someone committed a crime first.
Don't test us on this or we'll do something as yet unnamed, but you probably won't like it.
If you're born here, you're a citizen. No one can take that away from you.
In the HoR, you get a rationally proportionate number of reps per persons that live in your district. Sorry Indians, but you don't count.
If you do anything that shows you're an enemy of the state at any time, consider yourself persona non grata around here.
If we say we need money to protect us, just give it to us.
Congress will write some laws about all of this as necessary.
Anyone can vote, even former slaves.
Listen south, we know you have a problem with this, and we don't care. It's the law of the land now. Don't test us! You've been warned.
Sorry, but we've got things to do. We're going to need a few bucks from you whether you like it or not. We'll base it off your income.
There were some issues with the whole senatorial thing. We needed to clean them up a bit.
The party has hereby been canceled—drop the booze.
Women—sorry, we completely forgot about you. You can vote now too.
We apparently forgot to be specific about the dates. Presidents, your term ends on January 20th at noon. The rest of us congressmen end our term on January 3rd at noon.
The Congress has to meet at least once a year to earn their pay. They'll do it on January 3rd starting at noon unless they have a golf tee time or something, then they can agree to a different day.
If the president dies before he takes office or we find he wasn't legally qualified to be president in the first place, the veep is in.
If some people die in office, don't worry. We'll figure it out.
If 75% of the states don't agree with this, forget all of it.
Sorry about all that nonsense earlier in Amendment 18. Party back on!
Let's be clear, you can party, but you can't transport the party across state lines.
If the states don't agree again, sorry, but party is back off.
OK, that president thing seems like it might be a little too powerful for our tastes. So once he's done two terms, he's out.
We've got new digs. We're going to call it a district. It's not really a state or even part of a state, just a district. We know it makes little sense, but don't worry about it.
If you don't pay your taxes, you can still vote. We're not going to let all the rich people run over the poor. So broke or not, you can vote free of charge.
If the president dies or resigns, his BFF will take his place.
If we kick the president out, his BFF takes over.
If any other reason comes about that we can't seem to think of right now the results in the president not being president anymore, the vice president takes over.
You only have to be 18 to vote no matter what state you live in.
If we vote for a pay raise, it won't take effect until after the election.
There you have it folks. The US Constitution simplified by Gary for modern times. I know I had some fun with this, but I made every attempt to actually be factual as well as humorous. I love our constitution, and encourage everyone to read it, understand it, and demand your representatives abide by it. We the people have the power with our votes to make a difference.

The Altar and Font
In line with modern liturgical developments, after the 2006 reordering of St. Leonard's Church the centre point of our eucharistic worship, the altar or communion table, was moved closer to the congregation: so that there might be a clearer sense of people gathered round this table to share in the sacrament of Communion, and so that all might feel more intimately and keenly involved in what was happening there. While the sanctuary altar remains in its place, a new altar was introduced to stand on the raised dais at the front of the nave.
A new and imposing font was placed on the dais, where baptisms can happen in sight of the whole congregation. It stands prominently as a constant reminder to all worshippers of their own baptism in Christ. Three artists and craftspeople from West Sussex, assisted by others and in consultation with church leaders, have been involved in this project:
Polly Meynell, an artist working primarily in ecclesiastical textiles, has designed the altar, with four fabric panels to hang in turn on its front, each with colours and shapes depicting particular seasons or celebrations of the church year. The altar is oval, seeking to soften and hold together the lines of the chancel and the nave, and is constructed in ash, as are the nave chairs. On its front, though sometimes hidden by a frontal hanging, and on its top are inlaid in black walnut the trinary cross that figures elsewhere in the nave.
Mel Howse, an artist specializing in architectural glass design and enamels on metals, has designed the font. Its bowl is of enamelled steel with swirling blue and turquoise hues inside depicting the movement of water. The clear nylon collar beneath suggests the bowl is floating, while the stand is turned in ash to complement the sweeping lines of the altar.
Peter West, a specialist in woodturning and making fine furniture, has crafted the wood on both the altar and the font.

Since 16 October 2020, outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses have been reported in several EU/EEA countries – Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, and Sweden as well as in the United Kingdom. This scientific report gives an update of the situation up to 19 November 2020 12 pm, with the aim to providing insight into the risk of further spread of avian influenza within the wild bird and poultry populations across Europe, and assesses the zoonotic potential of the virus strains currently circulating.
Since 16 October 2020, outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses have been reported in several EU/EEA countries – Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, and Sweden as well as in the United Kingdom. As of 19 November, 12pm, 302 HPAI A(H5) detections have been reported, with the majority of the detections referring to wild birds (n=281), and a few related to outbreaks in poultry (n=18) and captive birds (n=3). Most of the detections in wild birds were in wild waterbirds, being barnacle goose the most affected species (n=110), followed by greylag goose (n=47), Eurasian wigeon (n=32), mallard (n=14), and common buzzard (n=13). Three HPAI virus subtypes were identified, A(H5N8), A(H5N5) and A(H5N1), with A(H5N8) being the most reported subtype (n=284). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the viruses evolved from a single progenitor virus that went through multiple reassortment events. Based on the ongoing autumn migration of wild waterbirds to their wintering areas in Europe, there is a continued risk of further introduction of HPAI A(H5) viruses into Europe. Furthermore, given the expected movements of both migratory, and resident wild birds in Europe during winter, there is a high risk of further spread of HPAI A(H5) viruses within Europe. No genetic markers indicating adaptation to mammals have been identified in the viruses analysed so far, and no human infection due to avian influenza viruses detected in the recent outbreaks has been reported. For that reason, the risk to the general population remains very low. However, following the precautionary principle, people should avoid touching sick or dead birds unprotected to minimise any potential risk.

Avian influenza is an infectious viral disease in birds, including domestic poultry. Avian influenza is mainly found in birds, but under certain circumstances infections can also occur in humans even though the risk is generally very low.
Pandemic influenza
A pandemic is the rapid spread of a new human influenza around the world. Influenza pandemics happen when a new strain of a flu virus appears which can infect humans, to which most people have no immunity and which can transmit efficiently from human to human.

Many NBA fans have noticed that updates on their favorite teams, and news in the league has been filling up their news feeds on both Facebook and Twitter. They aren't getting this information from what their friends post, but rather the league itself.
The National Basketball Association league has tremendously boosted their online presence, and this has been noticed by a number of media outlets for their social media strategies that lead their online presence to success.
Just a few years ago you couldn't find much information or any updates from the league unless you were looking for scores and schedules. Now, as the games are happening, you can see clips, plays, and highlights. The league keeps their fans updated almost daily on the latest trades, schedule of games, and final scores. It has benefitted fans to be more involved and more engaged. By the league's tactics, they are even able to expand their audience and market, reaching more people every day.
It's no longer about the players but rather the teams and the league itself. Instead of stories in the newspapers or major media outlets, the league reports it all directly. You instantly get the message as long as you like, follow, or subscribe to their profiles.
How Seriously Are They Taking It?
As social media, internet marketing, and the entire overall internet evolves, the league, players, and teams are starting to adjust and jump in with full speed. In 2012, the National Basketball Association held their first annual social media awards. This is an event where players, teams and plays have received awards for their actions and number of comments on social media.
It is important today for teams to be on social media as it helps them stay connected with their teams and fans. In fact, some teams even have an anchor that interviews players during practices and asks them fan questions. As more fans feel connected, the stronger and broader the audience gets.
Of course, we also have the added element of the players' own individual accounts, which again allows fans of the players, teams, and followers of the league in general to interact with the biggest stars in the NBA.
The NBA and its associated teams aren't just showing off their popularity online but on TV and in real time. Some teams have put their hash tags on their practice shirts while the league labels them on their scoreboards. Tweets scrolling across the television screen is an increasingly common thing, with each game having a dedicated hashtag and the on air announcers actively encouraging the audience to participate.
As the league continues to maintain their online presence, they have also begun to see an increase in their television viewings. The tweets and posts don't just act like a connected bond between teams and fans but also a reminder. The information they post allows players to watch all the must-see games and stay reminded and connected.

BUTTE CO., Calif. — An ambulance that was evacuating a woman after giving birth caught on fire, forcing the paramedics to seek shelter at a nearby house.
ABC 7 reported that Heather Roebuck had just finished giving birth via C-section when flames from the Camp fire forced and evacuation for patients at the Feather River Hospital in Paradise, California.
With her husband looking after her newborn and other children, Roebuck was taken away by ambulance, only to have the ambulance catch on fire, forcing her and other patients out into elements.
A pediatrician was able to herd Roebuck and the other patients to a nearby home, where paramedics and firefighters fought against the flames to keep them safe.

What happens to chimpanzee TV advert stars when the lights go down?
January 07, 2019 47 minutes
In the last episode we spoke with David van Gennep, the Executive Director of AAP – a rescue and rehabilitation centre, mainly known for helping chimpanzees, with a centre in the Netherlands and another one in Spain.
Today, we're staying on a similar subject. In this episode we're speaking with Olga Feliu who is the Director of the MONA Foundation – that's a sanctuary for chimpanzees located near to the town of Girona in Catalunya, Spain. Yes, we have the same name, so for clarity whenever I speak about "Olga" from now on, it's not about me, it's about our guest!
The chimpanzees that live at the "MONA sanctuary" are mostly former TV advert and circus stars. Celebrities, really. Whichever country we live in, we've probably seen an advert for fast food or a brand of tea. How much fun they always seemed to be having in those situations, we all thought, including me when I was a child. It wasn't until I visited the MONA sanctuary that I found out that the fall from TV stardom for a chimpanzee is a sad and grave event which tends to see them sent to live in a (usually tiny and filthy) cage for the rest of their lives.
This is an episode where we explore the lives of some of the chimpanzees that Olga's amazing team has looked after over the years. We talk about the other situations where chimpanzees are kept as pets and, of course, what their journey looks like when they reach a place like the MONA sanctuary where they can experience at least a fraction of a "normal" life as a chimpanzee.
About our guest
OLGA FELIU, Co-founder, Board member and Director of MONA.
Brave, pragmatic and always optimistic. Olga always sees the bright side of things and that has made the MONA project a reality out of nothing.
Olga is a veterinary graduate who has worked with animals for the entirety of her career. She also has a Master´s Degree in Primatology and Doctorate in Primate Ethology at the University of Barcelona.
Olga founded and runs the Fundació MONA Sanctuary and Recuperation centre in the province of Girona, Catalunya, Spain.
Now, in the last episode with David from AAP we already learned that there's a surprisingly large trade in wild animals across Europe. In fact, because Spain is a gateway from Africa into Europe, it's often the entry point for animals like chimpanzees and macaques who are caught in the wild and then… through a chain… sold on to people who keep them as pets or as workers.
Olga is going to talk to us about the kind of things that she has seen over her career. In fact, she was a vet specialising in the health of baby cows. One day, the company she worked for got a call from someone who needed help with chimpanzees! Olga was the one sent to meet a British chap called Simon Templar (not many of her colleagues spoke English) who was privately rescuing chimpanzees from some terrible situations and giving them a safe home.
That was some 20 years ago, but that was the meeting which was to change the course of Olga's life, as she'll explain, and saw her becoming a go to person for the Customs department of the Spanish Government. So, whenever they had found an illegally kept chimpanzee and wanted to confiscate it, they'd call Olga to try find a home for it. Hence, she found out just how many of these poor chimpanzees were finding themselves far from home, working in circuses, as TV stars or living as pets in apartments. And so, as good people do, she decided to do something about it.
I have visited the MONA sanctuary several times, met many of the staff there and also got to know the stories of the chimpanzees and barbary macaques they have there. It's not a huge place, and the setup is two separate enclosures for the chimpanzees where they live in their little groups, and then their connected bedrooms where they go at night. There's also a sort of separate quarantine / introduction area which is where new chimps first live when they arrive.

The chimpanzee I always remember from MONA is Toni because he's so different from the other chimps – he seems tiny and that's because he's pretty much hunched over all the time. There's basically a pretty severe deformity of his back and that's thought to have happened because he lived in such a small cage where he couldn't move around. So, imagine if you're at the sanctuary and you're looking into the big outside enclosure, Toni's the easiest one to identify just because he's "different" and kind of reminds you of a very sweet old man because of the grey hairs on his head.
But, actually all the chimps have very individual characters, likes, dislikes and backgrounds. Olga's going to talk more about that in our interview.

Also, I remember another time when I visited and one of the barbary macaque had fallen ill, so he was separated from the others for a while for treatment. As we were watching, one of the staff went to check on this ill macaque and we saw the rest of his buddies running closer, so desperate to get some news about his wellbeing. The look on their faces were exactly like that of a human family wanting to know about how their sister or brother is doing. It really was so touching and a reminder of our own closeness to these species. That macaque recovered just fine and they were all reunited a few days later.

All of the chimpanzees and macaques who live at MONA have a unique story. You can find them here.
Stories of the chimpanzees mentioned here and in the episode:
Nico, the chimpanzee diagnosed with Chiari Malformation.
Toni, the chimpanzee who can't stand up straight.
The team at MONA also sent two videos our way which will bring to life everything we discuss in this episode:

A video documenting the arrival of the very first chimpanzees that came to live at MONA.
Finally, if you would like to find out more about the future that lies ahead for the chimpanzees when they move home to new premises in the year 2020, you can visit the MONA website for more details. As you can imagine, they're going to be very busy, not just planning and doing everything required for the move, but also making sure everything at their current home stays as normal. You can help them out with the enormous task ahead by spreading the word or supporting their work with as little as €1 per month. Needless to say: Nico, Toni and the rest of their friends would be so appreciative of your help.

Blu-ray Review: Walt Disney's The Little Mermaid (1989) -- Diamond Edition
"I don't know when, I don't know how, but I know something's starting right now," Jodi Benson sang as Ariel in 1989 and this gorgeous line not only anchored the Little Mermaid's theme song "Part of Your World," in Walt Disney Studio's first fairy-tale in roughly thirty years but it also ushered in the Renaissance in animated filmmaking that brought about a new wave of classics from Mermaid to Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, up through The Lion King.
Expanding upon the experimental pop rock opera approach utilized in the music heavy Dickensian Disney dogs feature Oliver & Company but injecting it with much needed humanism and a strong sense of post-Baby Boomer feminism that grounded the Hans Christian Anderson source material in contemporary awareness, Disney offered young viewers a new kind of female heroine who was a far cry from the monosyllabic Sleeping Beauties of their past.
Giving teenage mermaid Ariel a clear goal long before she had met the man of her dreams, we're introduced to the seventh and youngest daughter of ruler of the Mer-People, King Triton, who, in a long line of Disney films, is doing his best to raise his children without the benefit of a mother.
An outsider who spends her days searching for lost treasure from sunken ships navigated by those above who walk on land with two legs, Ariel is quickly called to action in the film when she rescues the handsome Prince Eric from a watery grave after his ship hits rough waters. Needless to say -- and particularly to young girls watching in the theatre at the time of its release -- the fact that it's the mermaid who saves the prince and not the other way around (as is often the traditional case for Disney) was a huge step in the right direction narratively speaking.
While the introduction of Eric and Ariel's love for him solidifies her determination to be "part of" his world, it's an important distinction that she longed for life on land before Eric, making the addition of a potential mate to share her goal with just happy icing on the cake and these lessons subtly implanted in the film -- undoubtedly trying to appeal to changing times -- are much more appreciated upon repeat viewings.
Offering us easily the most terrifying female villain since Cruella de Vil, Ariel trades her voice for legs, later learning that you're never as powerful as when you (retain) and listen to your true voice, as only once does Eric see her as a full being with a voice and not a mere beautiful object does he realize how much he truly loves her.
Filled with gorgeous animation that's all the more heightened by attention to detail that makes us nearly forget we're watching drawings edited together, thanks to the animators painstaking adherence to Walt Disney's practice of using actors to bring the action to life for artistic reference, The Little Mermaid has never looked or sounded quite as stunning as it does in this digital restoration.
Giving even the amateur Disney historians among us a plethora of new material to pour over, Disney gold is best on display in "Under the Scene -- The Art of Live Action Reference," as we watch Groundlings veteran Sherri Lynn Stone enact the film, improvising some of Ariel's now most identifiable mannerisms and movements on the spot.
The first film that I specifically chose to see in the theater as a child (selecting Mermaid over the morose sounding All Dogs Go to Heaven from former Disney animator Don Bluth) when I was just eight years old, The Little Mermaid holds up amazingly well on Blu-ray. Also boasting a digital copy of the feature, the two-disc BD/DVD set offers those of us who grew up in the Disney Renaissance new treasure to explore in this long-awaited release, timed for Diamond Edition Blu-ray debut to (nearly) coincide with its twenty-fifth anniversary.

The aim of this project is a to create a heritage learning centre at the Upper Wincobank Undenominational Chapel, situated in the North East of Sheffield. The Chapel site includes a Grade II listed chapel building and a residential property adjacent to it. It is hoped that this project will allow for a refurbishment of the house and possibly the chapel.
Penny Rea, with her passion for the Chapel and local area, and strong links with the community, has begun the process of approaching the Heritage Lottery Fund to possibly finance this project. The Live Project team has entered the project after an initial pre-application while the project is still very much in development.
Working with the client, chapel and consulting a range of community groups, the team identified a strategy for the project which culminated in the production of a series of documents, models and a new identity for the chapel.
These all aim to provide support for the chapels future funding applications to continue engagement with community members and professionals, helping the client to progress the project. It is hoped that the work produced will help Penny and the chapel to progress the project, continuing to inspire local people about their heritage and take ownership of the future of the chapel.

Cinnamon is native to Ceylon, now Sri Lanka, though its history dates back to Chinese writings to 2800 BC. Being one of the oldest spices known, cinnamon was a powerful spice used in Egypt, Rome and China on an extensive level. While the Egyptians used cinnamon as a beverage flavoring, medicinal, and embalming agent; the Chinese treasured it for its varied medicinal benefits. The warm, distinctive flavor that cinnamon adds to dishes has been celebrated for long. The sweet and delightful aroma it exudes infuses a soothing and relaxing feeling.
The essential oils of cinnamon bark contain cinnamaldehyde, cinnamyl acetate and cinnamyl alcohol which are the primary source of health benefits. Cinnamaldehyde works as an anti-platelet agent which protects harmful blood platelet clotting which can otherwise cause inadequate blood flow. As such, cinnamon helps in alleviating the conditions of inflammation, such as rheumatoid arthritis.
Cinnamon is an excellent source of manganese, dietary fiber, iron and calcium. All nutrients combine to collect bile salts and remove them from the body, which are responsible for damaging colon cells and increasing the risk of developing colon cancer.
Apart from the flavoring that cinnamon adds to your food, it acts as a good digestive tonic. It is best effective for curing indigestion, nausea, vomiting, upset stomach, diarrhea, acidity, morning sickness and flatulence.

On Monday, November 2, 2009, at approximately 7:31pm, a Boston Police Officer conducting a detail on State Street at Congress Street was approached by a parking valet who reported that a woman was just robbed of her purse and the suspect was running down the street. The officer was then supplied with a description of the suspect and directed to the area where he was last seen.
The officer and parking valet then ran down Congress Street towards Quaker Lane. An individual was then observed and identified by the parking valet as the perpetrator. As the officer approached the suspect he observed him to be concealing what appeared to be a purse under his shirt. The officer also observed him to have a large knife in his right hand. The officer ordered the suspect to drop the knife to which he complied. At this time, the suspect was handcuffed and detained in order to investigate the matter further.
Officers then spoke with a 61 year-old female victim who stated that she had her vehicle returned to her by the valet service at 45 Province Street when she was approached by a white male who pushed her out of the driver's seat and into the passengers' area. The suspect entered her vehicle and sat in the driver's seat. She began to scream and the suspect punched her and removed a large knife and slashed at her. The victim sustained a laceration on her hand as a result. The victim attempted to scratch the suspect's face and he ordered her to shut up or he would kill her. The victim got out of the vehicle while the suspect was attempting to locate the car keys. At this time, the valet came to the victim's aid and attempted to remove the suspect from her car. The suspect stepped from the vehicle and swung the knife at the valet before grabbing the victim's purse and fleeing on foot. The valet pursued the suspect and observed him to enter an un-occupied vehicle on Washington Street and attempt to steal it. The valet again confronted the suspect causing him to exit the vehicle and continue to flee.
The suspect was positively identified and placed into custody. Officers arrested Richard Morse, 48 of Boston on the charges of Assault with Intent to Murder on a Person over the age of 60, Kidnapping and Armed Robbery (second & subsequent offense).

I spent most of my life in and around New Orleans, where I practiced law for several years. The life of my family changed forever when my son regressed into autism after a round of childhood immunizations. About a year post-Katrina, it became clear to my wife and me that the inadequate services our son received prior to the storm were now non-existent. So we moved to the Midwest, where I took a job in a related field. With better access to both biomedical interventions and traditional therapies, our Little Rankster has made incredible progress.
Attending the Autism One Conference through the years has been far more than just educational (although the education alone is worth the price of admission); it has been inspirational. The bonds that have been forged through AO are among the strongest I have ever known. It truly is a community I am proud to be associated with.

There's only one thing stranger than what's going on inside his head. What's going on outside.
Up-and-coming 1940s New York playwright Barton Fink is hired by a Hollywood studio to write a wrestling picture. Ensconced in the run-down Hotel Earle, Fink is plagued by writer's block. He befriends an amiable salesman in the room next door, Charlie Meadows. Later, Fink meets an alcoholic novelist, Bill Mayhew, who has also come to Hollywood to write scripts, and Mayhew's secretary Audrey. Fink sleeps with Audrey, but when he awakens, he finds she has been murdered. He gets Meadows to help him dispose of the body, but detectives arrive and tell him that Meadows is actually a serial killer named Karl Mundt. Mundt returns and burns down the hotel, and Fink's career is ruined by the studio's refusal to produce anything he writes.

The small early notebooks contain excerpts from Irwin's readings with his notes. The larger notebooks contain commentaries on his readings, and the later notebooks are compilations of ancillary information for his own writings. This series also contains a separate notebook used in preparation for his 1977 Whitney Museum project. Published writings, lecture notes, and related materials are also included.
