Gender Affirmation Toolkit supports inclusivity for Vanderbilt employees
by Neha Khetan Dec. 3, 2020, 8:21 AM
Vanderbilt University has launched the Gender Affirmation Toolkit to reinforce its commitment to providing a safe and inclusive working environment for all employees. The toolkit was developed in collaboration with the Office for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, Human Resources, the Equal Opportunity and Access Office, the Office of LGBTQI Life and other campus partners.
The Gender Affirmation Toolkit features a set of guidelines that serve as resources for employees who identify as transgender, genderqueer or non-binary, as well as the managers who support them, to navigate workplace biases or discrimination and ultimately build a more inclusive and welcoming work environment. The toolkit includes helpful information on topics such as confidentiality and privacy, names and pronoun use, and support for employees who are transitioning.
Vanderbilt University prohibits discrimination based on any category protected by Vanderbilt policy, including sexual orientation and gender identity. Gender-based and sexual harassment, including sexual violence, are forms of sex discrimination in that they deny or limit an individual's ability to participate in or benefit from university programs or activities.
"We continue to move forward in our commitment to creating an inclusive Vanderbilt. The Gender Affirmation Toolkit is another intentional step Vanderbilt has taken to build a more inclusive and welcoming environment for the Vanderbilt community," said Dr. André Churchwell, vice chancellor for equity, diversity and inclusion and chief diversity officer. "We hope that this additional resource will give confidence to managers and supervisors to support and affirm employees of all gender identities. I'm thankful to our campus partners for supporting us in developing these resources."
The guidelines are informational and evolving and can be found on the Office for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion's website in the resources section. All line managers are highly encouraged to use the toolkit to create a more inclusive environment for their teams and employees.
"It is imperative that our employees feel respected, included and safe in work environments where they can be their authentic selves. Consistent with Vanderbilt's expressed values, we strive to create as supportive an environment as possible for every staff member," said Laura Nairon, interim associate vice chancellor for people and business services. "We are proud of this collaborative effort to support employees and their leaders with resources to build an authentic and inclusive culture at Vanderbilt."

Q: Tree in doctrine / symfony with CRUD The major task is to have an entity, that can be connected to another one.
I already got an entity called "Dossier" and within this one I like to have a tree structure like for mails.

*

*Would you store a conversation in that way?

*How can I achieve a tree using Doctrine?

*Can Symfony generate the CRUD for it?

A: Yes, you can do this.
I like generating annotation style, YAML as a second choice personally.  How would you be generating your entity mapping?  I believe XML is your other choice.
What your asking it seems, is can you have a relation, yes you can.  You use FK's or Foriegn Keys for this.  Have you looked into MySQL yet, or what is your interest?
If your not sure how to design your schema, there is a great program for MySQL called MySQL Workbench.  Are you familiar? You can use this to generate a simply FK table relationship, then generation of the entities will follow this.  Regenerate each time you make a readjustment of your schema.  I think reverse engineering entities from schema is the best way.
If you go this route, once you have your DB Schema designed, tables built, if empty doesnt matter, you can reverse engineer your entities this way.  see this url here
//import orm mapping information from database, and using a filter for a specific table if you wanted
php app/console doctrine:mapping:import --force YourBundle yml --filter Table1

//convert mapping information, only if you didnt use YML in the top command.
//we need to force this, make sure you dont need any changes on the entity page (normally this is left default_, otherwise back it up first.
php app/console doctrine:mapping:convert annotation ./src --force --filter Table1

Generate the entities now
$php app/console doctrine:generate:entities YourBundle

// or generate an entity from scratch
$ php app/console doctrine:generate:entity

Generate your getters and setters to any new properties, wont touch your methods, safe.
$ php app/console doctrine:generate:entities Acme/YourBundle/Entity/Table1
$ php app/console doctrine:schema:update --force or --dump-sql

This will carry over the Foriegn Relationships.  When you use Doctrine to access your data, you can query using relations how you see fit...  Ill try to get a good example on this, i do have one, but heres an example otherwise.
/**
 * getfruitSubtextures()
 * @Route("/fruit/subtextures/color/{color}/size/{size}/texture/{texture}", name="get_fruit_subtextures", options={"expose"=true})
 * @param $color
 * @param $size
 * @param $texture
 * @Method("GET")
 */
public function getfruitSubtextures($color, $size, $texture){

    $em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
    $rsm = new ResultSetfruitpingBuilder($em);
    $rsm->addRootEntityFromClassMetadata('WeRuS\fruitBundle\Entity\Opttextures', 'g');

    $sql = "SELECT SubtextureLabel, textureSubtexture
            FROM opt_textures
            WHERE texturelabel = :texturelabel
            AND color = :color
            AND size = :size
            ORDER BY SubtextureLabel ASC";

    $query = $em->createNativeQuery($sql,$rsm);

    $query->setParameters(array(
        'color' => $color,
        'size' => $size,
        'texturelabel' => $texture,
    ));

    $results = $query->getArrayResult();

    if (!$results)
    {
        throw $this->createNotFoundException('No Matching subtextures found for this fruit size texture!');
    }
    else
    {
        $response = new JsonResponse();
        $response->setData($results);
        return $response;
    }
}

As far making a CRUD for it, wait until you have your schema, and entities in working order, then you follow this procedure
$ php app/console generate:doctrine:crud --entity=YourBundle:Table1  --with-write --format=annotation  --overwrite

Edit, i thougth the user was looking for example of a tree like structure, as opposed to tree, this article primarily serves how to do it without tree.  oops.

Brian Moudry Pleads Not Guilty To Arson
Brian Moudry(304 s Reed St. Joliet, IL), the man previously arrested for chasing a kid down with a BB gun and attempting to flush it down the toilet(just a month after threatening a black postal worker), was arrested Wednesday for allegedly trying to set fire to an African-American neighbors house in 2007. Moudry was once a member of World Church of the Creator(WCOTC)/Creativity Movement(TCM). He is also known as Warhead Jewgrinder in the National Socialist Black Metal(NSBM) band Xenophobia. He is also the person that puts out the Hatemonger Warzine, a radical NSBM fanzine.
Taken from NBC:
A self-proclaimed white supremacist from Joliet pleaded not guilty Thursday in federal court to charges he allegedly set fire to an African-American neighbor's house back in 2007.
Brian James Moudry, 35, responded to the judge's questions but didn't say much in court. Moudry was arrested Wednesday on charges of trying to burn the family out of their home the morning on June 17 because of their race. The family with eight children lived down the street from Moudry in the 300 block of South Reed Street.
An indictment alleges Moudry set the fire to "injure, intimidate, and interfere with" the family because they were renting the home. The eight kids and an adult were home at the time of the blaze, according to the indictment, but no one was injured and the family moved after the fire.
Moudry was charged with one count each of arson, using fire to interfere with housing rights on the basis of race, and using fire to commit another felony in a three-count indictment that was returned by a federal grand jury last week and unsealed after his arrest.
Moudry is being represented by an African American attorney, MiAngel Cody.
"The federal government takes very seriously its responsibilities to protect members of all racial and ethnic groups from intimidation and violence," said outgoing U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald in a statement.
The arson charge carries a mandatory minimum of 5 years and a maximum of 20 years in prison. The other charges each carry mandatory 10-year terms and a maximum fine of $250,000.
Beckie Williams Hacked! Private Info Released
An email sent to us from the account of Beckie Williams(1220 51ST Ave Apt. 202 Rock Island, IL 61201-6886) shows that her email and stormfront were hacked into by antifascist hackers. The email contains not only Beckie and her associates addresses and phone numbers but tons of juicy private conversations. It seems that Beckie is suffering from PTSD and is romantically involved with many different neo-nazi men and possibly one women. We may also know who is responsible for the pathetic and short lived attack on our blog.
Thanks to the folks who helped out on this one and thanks again to River City ARA as well for the flyer drop. it appears that "Thomas Stuart" is quite shaken up over these incidents.

Illinois White Supremacist Daniel Mahon gets 40 years for package bomb
Daniel and Dennis Mahon were arrested at 5794 N Blackwood Rd Davis Junction, IL (815 393-4626) in 2009 after a five year investigation that involved a federal informant. The brothers were believed to have sent a package bomb to a head of Scottsdale's Office of Diversity. On Tuesday May 22nd, Dennis was found guilty and sentenced to 40 years. According to the Anti-Defamation League(ADL) "He has held leadership positions within various white supremacist groups, including the Ku Klux Klan and White Aryan Resistance (WAR), a now-defunct group led by long-time white supremacist Tom Metzger."
Taken From Reuters.com:
A U.S. federal judge sentenced a 61-year-old white supremacist to 40 years in jail on Tuesday for a racially motivated package bomb attack that injured a black city administrator in Arizona in 2004.
Dennis Mahon was found guilty in February of three explosives- and conspiracy-related charges stemming from the attack on Don Logan, then the head of the diversity office for the city of Scottsdale.
Mahon, who appeared for sentencing in shackles and an orange jumpsuit, was arrested along with his identical twin brother Daniel in 2009 at their home in Davis Junction, Illinois, following a five-year investigation.
Daniel Mahon was acquitted of a single charge of conspiracy to damage buildings and property by means of explosives, following a six-week trial in U.S. District Court in Phoenix.
Handing down the sentence on Tuesday, U.S. District Judge David G. Campbell called the bomb attack "an act of domestic terrorism" that aimed to promote an agenda of hate and racism.
Logan, head of Scottsdale's Office of Diversity and Dialogue, suffered injuries to his hand when he opened the package bomb at his office. Another worker, Renita Linyard, was also injured in the blast.
"Everyone wants to lock me up forever, but I did not do this bombing," Mahon said, protesting his innocence before sentencing. "What happened to Miss Linyard and Mr. Logan is terrible, but I can't apologize for a crime I didn't commit."
Mahon faced a maximum sentence of 100 years in jail, and Logan urged the judge to impose the maximum.
"When I leave, I cannot leave what happened to me at these doors. I'm going to have to live with this for the rest of my life," he told the court. "Dennis Mahon's actions warrant the maximum sentence."
But speaking after the hearing, Logan told Reuters he was satisfied. "Realistically, he will never get out again. I am happy with the sentencing."
During the trial, authorities maintained that the Mahons had acted on behalf of the White Aryan Resistance, a group they said promoted racial discord against people of color.
During the trial, prosecutors presented evidence that Dennis Mahon had specific knowledge of how the bomb, which was hidden beneath bubble wrap in a package addressed to Logan, was constructed.
But defense attorneys argued that someone else must have been responsible, and criticized the government for using a confidential informant to make its case, calling the woman "a trailer park Mata Hari" - a reference to a Dutch exotic dancer shot for espionage in 1917.
Mahon was convicted on counts of conspiracy to damage buildings and property by means of explosives; malicious damage of a building by means of explosives, and distribution of information related to explosives.
Campbell sentenced him to 40 years in prison for the first two counts, and 33 months on the final count. He ordered all the terms were to run concurrently. Mahon's attorney, Deborah Williams, told Reuters she would appeal the sentence.
Bail Funds Needed For Ashford House Five
Saturday May 19, 2012 five antifascists were arrested in Tinley Park, a
Chicago Suburb, for allegedly assaulting a number of white-supremacist
organizers. Help us raise funds for their support and costly legal
defense. One of the alleged "victims" was arrested on warrants for child pornography and another was arrested for possessing a firearm as a
convicted felon. Bond has been set at nearly $1 Million dollars for the
alleged attackers. Legal funds are needed in order to secure adequate
legal representation and ensure that their families are taken care of
until they are released.
Bail is collectively set at $925k, $250k for one defendant, $200k for another, and $175k each for the remaining three arrestees; a legal fund has been set up in defense of those arrested.

Pedophile and Fugitive Arrested at Illinois White Nationalist Gathering
Aside from the hospitalization and injuries many white supremacists suffered at the recent Ashford House attack, that led the "White Nationalist Economic Summit"(the first and possibly last white supremacist event for lead organizer Beckie Williams) to end almost as soon as it began, other severe consequences have followed. An event attendee, fugitive, and pedophile Steve Eugene Speers was arrested today along with fellow white supremacist Francis John Gilroy Jr. of Lighthouse Point; a convicted felon who apparently had a gun on him. Event attendee Brandon Spiller himself also admitted to having an illegal weapon in his car in a comment on an on-line news article.
We thank whoever the antifascists are that laid these down these attacks. We see this as an effective blow against white supremacist organizing in this state and elsewhere.
Taken From Arch City ARA:
It has recently come to our attention that some of the fascists smashed at the recent Tinley Park action were arrested and are being held by Tinley Park and Cook County police.
White nationalist Steven Eugene Speers was arrested afterwards on a warrant for child pornography from Texas. In addition to his Texas charges, he was arrested in 2010 for failure to pay child support, battery, felony domestic battery by strangulation, and burglary with assault or battery in Bay County, Florida. Other past charges in Florida include conspiring to purchase a controlled substance with intent and possession of a controlled substance, criminal mischief, and trespassing (possibly in connection with the domestic battery charge).
Steven currently lives in Grand Forks, ND, but has lived in Garland, TX, Chipley and Defuniak Springs, FL, and Shelton, WA. Steven Eugene Speers was transferred almost immediately to the Cook County Sherrif's Fugitive Division, and will probably be behind bars for quite awhile.
Francis John Gilroy Jr. of Lighthouse Point and West Palm Beach, FL was also picked up for unlawful possession of a weapon by a felon. He was described by police and arrest records as a transient, and he may live with his 80-year-old parents, Francis John Sr. and Joyce Gilroy at their home in Jupiter, Florida.
More info on Gilroy to come. It is unclear yet but probable that Speers and Gilroy may have associated prior to the White Nationalist Economic Summit in Tinley Park, given their shared views and ties to the state of Florida.
Outcomes like this are important for actualizing our goals and stances as antifascists (and clearly follows along ARA's Points of Unity) because it makes the connections between those things we oppose ever more clear. National Socialism, fascism, and white supremacy have had always had very definite ties to instances of spousal and child abuse, sexual assault, and other acts of violence against oppressed groups outside of the realm of racism.
Take, for example, the proof that California NSM leader Jeff Hall had abused and neglected his wife and children in the years leading up to the night his murder, at the hands of his 10-year-old son. Mike Schloer's ex-wife Jennifer recently came out with startling evidence of sexual and emotional abuse at the hands of her neo-Nazi husband, and in November of 2010, Steve Turpel of INSF was outed as a known pedophile, who kidnapped a teenage girl, and produced child pornography.
The correlations between these instances of abuse and assault are not isolated, and span the entirety of hate groups like those that met on May 19th at the Ashford House Restaurant. We will not stop exposing neo-Nazis, fascists, and white supremacists (and, consequently, abusive partners and parents, pedophiles, child molesters, and perpetrators of sexual assault), ever; we intend to win!
5th Annual White Nationalist Economic Summit Smashed; Several Hospitalized
An update 6/01/12 from Beckie Williams via stormfront: "Because of the relentless harassment by the ARA TERRORISTS, my already tenuous health is being impacted in a extremely sever way. My only recourse is is to step away from activism for the sake of my continued survival."
On May 19th, at around noon, A white nationalist event at the Ashford House in Tinley Park, IL was allegedly attacked and shut down by antifascists, sending several neo-nazis to the hospital. The event organizers and some attendees then had their information released.
On May 20th in the early morning, River City ARA paid a visit to the home of Jeffrey S. Burns flyering his house and neighborhood to land the final blow in this attack against white supremacy
This is only a re-post by south side ARA and not a claim of being involved contrary to what myfoxchicago.com suggests
From antiracistaction.org
In response to Mob Attacked Specific Group of People Inside Tinley Park Restaurant
On Saturday, May 19th a group of 30 anti-fascists descended upon Ashford House restaurant in the Chicago suburb of Tinley Park where the 5th annual White Nationalist Economic Summit and Illinois White Nationalist Meet-and-Greet was taking place. The White Nationalists were targeted inside the restaurant and physically attacked, causing several injuries and completely shutting down their meeting. The anti-fascist group was privy to anonymous inside information. This fascist event had been in secret planning for six months. The attendees have attempted to cover up the true intent of the event with mainstream media reports initially reporting the white nationalist conference as a wedding party and then as an Irish heritage meeting. The event was advertised on www.stormfront.org, an established white nationalist fascist internet forum.
Anti-fascists oppose any organizing by racists and fascist in their communities. Fascist and white nationalist organizing has resulted in a number of horrifying incidents, from the recent J.T. Ready shootings in Arizona to the Benjamin Nathaniel Smith shooting in the West Rogers Park neighborhood in Chicago, as just two examples.
These anti-fascists are committed to shutting down and attacking any racist, nationalist, or fascist organizers or individuals that they encounter

Mike Schloer's Ex-Wife Jennifer Speaks Out
We learned quite quickly how unstable the National Socilaist Movement's(NSM) Michael J. Schloer (one time resident of Naperville, IL also known as Mike Schmidt/harleyrebel88) was after exposing him here and here, and helping get him thrown from his house a few years back. His new saxon account soon became filled with violent threats of murder and paybacks against us(view screenshot): "HOBBIES: beating the SHlT out of SHITago ara, anti fia and sharp pussies, Your day of the rope is coming, each and every one of ya in SHITcago You done F.U.C.K.E.D with the wrong guy here in IL". His sister in-law then contacted us, and began to fill us in on some of his abusive tendencies as well as updates on his living situation: "The person he lives with told me many times how much she hates him and how controlling & bitter he is. She also hates Nazis & is enjoying the peace and quiet. The fact that he put her and her daughter in danger is disgusting. Rumor has it that he is temporarilly living at Suzie Lenner's or in his truck in Naperville someplace." After the JT Ready murder/suicide rampage Schloers ex-wife, Jennifer M Brower, decided it was time to go public about these tendencies. The text below describes in great detail his sick behavior. The last we heard, Mike was living in Kentucky.
Taken From One Peoples Project:
My personal experiences are described in my emergency order of protection issued by the 18th Judicial Circuit Court in DuPage county on August 4, 2010. I was also issued a plenary (permanent) order of protection (#2010OP001093) on August 25, 2010. Using the order's narrative, I prepared a ten page document for my divorce attorney to be submitted to the court describing the events that show I deserved a divorce on the grounds of mental cruelty. In the state of Illinois, judges do not often grant divorces with grounds. However, in my case, the judge only had to hear 5 minutes of testimony before giving me a divorce on mental cruelty grounds. Mike did not defend himself against these charges and refused to cooperate with the court. The rest of this post is an excerpt from that document and is presented here to show you what I dealt with in 2009 & 2010. Some of the more humiliating items have not been included to preserve my dignity.
We fought constantly, sometimes it would last most of the night and then start again after I got home from work. He would call me continuously at work until I'd answer and sit there crying at work as he criticized me. I was very sleep deprived. I decided that I had to divorce him because I was sick of walking on eggshells. He constantly watched WWII documentaries and would get angry when I refused to watch. He would constantly play white power music and talk to other nazis on the phone all evening. I remember having an argument about whether or not David Lane – part of the group called The Order who killed a Jewish radio host - was a murderer.
Mike would get angry if I didn't go to bed when he did or if I locked the bathroom door. I had no privacy. He would have to walk in on me in the shower as I was getting ready for work and stand next to the sink as I rushed to dry my hair and brush my teeth. He accused me of meeting someone when I was at the grocery store too long. I supported him, gave him a nice house to live in, and was nice to him - but I was treated like a slave. He never left the house, except for NSM rallies/business or to work out at the gym obsessively for hours. During this time, I started posting on blogs of other women who left and even the OPP forum. I even became a member of the Illinois Holocaust museum, Anti Defamation League, and Southern Poverty Law Center. I read Kirsten Kaiser's book about how she left Kevin Strom and it scared me because I saw the parallels between our lives – and I saw where I would be if I continued to tolerate my husband's nazi beliefs. I thank Kirsten for her book!
August 2, 2010 – the night I fled my house I came home from vacation with my mom, sister, and daughter. We went to Disney World. Before my father passed away, he asked my mom to take us. Prior to leaving, Mike and I had an argument. I came home and discovered Mike acting really strangely and it scared me. He was carrying a very large hunting knife throughout the house and trying to decide where to hide it. I observed him going back and forth from the nightstand to the closet, trying to decide where to put it. He looked manic while doing this. After he went downstairs, I brought up the suitcases and began sorting laundry. He sat on the bed and stared at me, saying nothing. I was really terrified and scared that he did something while we were gone. I felt like I was in a movie. I pretended to sort clothes and he went downstairs. After I heard him go downstairs, I looked in the nightstand and the knife was there. My instinct told me to get my daughter and get out of there. I told Mike we were going to get some laundry detergent and called my mom when we were safely away from the house. My mom said to come to her house but to tell Mike we had forgotten something and were going to stay there. After I called Mike, he got very angry and said that he wanted me to get him milk before I went. He said he would meet me at the store so I raced over there with my mom and sister on a 3 way call and I stopped at a gas station to get the milk. My mind was racing. I wanted to be where there were people. Mike stalked quietly behind me while in the store. I bought the milk at the cashier with him standing about 6 inches from me. He could have easily stabbed me with that knife. Upon walking out the door, he demanded to know why I was acting strangely. I said I was fine but he persisted so I asked him why he was carrying a knife through my house. He said that the ARA were causing problems. I asked him "What did you do?" imagining the worst. He said he didn't do anything. I yelled "I don't want a Nazi in my house. Get out of my house!" I went to my car, opened the door, he grabbed the door and wouldn't let me leave. I knew what happened to other women who left and that I was going to get out of there. My daughter was screaming. I said "Leave me alone" about 5 times but he held the door open. I was afraid that he was going to grab me and pull me out of the car. So, I turned on the ignition, threw the car in reverse with the car door open, and sped away. Again, I had my mom and sister on a 3 way call and they heard everything. I drove to my mom's house and called the police. I knew I had to get my life back. A few days later, I had an emergency protection order and he was evicted from the house.
Mid July 2010 – conversations about murder A conversation occurred where Mike stated that he thought several people should be killed. Also, Mike's email and New Saxon account were hacked and he blamed me for it. He said while looking directly at me "I'll kill whoever did this, and I don't care if it has tits."
July 21, 2010 – the coffee shop argument I went grocery shopping and then to the Caribou Coffee to use my computer. The grocery store and coffee shop are about a mile from my house. Mike hated it when I would use my computer at home because I was not paying attention to him. I was gone for 90 mins. However, this was too long in Mike's opinion. When I got home, he began interrogating me about where I had been and who I was with. I told him that I was with no one and I told him where exactly I was. I asked if he wanted to see the receipts. I also said that I was insulted because I stayed home every night and only went out with family when he was in Iraq. I also asked why he didn't call me or come himself to the store? The argument went on for 2 hours. When I tried to walk away from him, he would follow me room to room calling me names. I locked myself behind the bedroom door and he pounded on it repeatedly. I was afraid he was going to destroy my door so I opened it, hoping his behavior would not escalate. He already went downstairs so there was no confrontation.
Mid May, 2010 – sexual interrogations Mike always became upset if I were not paying attention to him. Events similar to this happened approximately 5 times during the marriage and this was the final explosion of all the anger and feelings of being trapped. They always resulted in multi-day arguments. These discussions were practically scripted and the same things were said each time. Mike went to bed earlier than I did. After about an hour, he came downstairs, livid. He was angry because I was using my computer. He asked me why I didn't go to bed at the same time he did and why I no longer wanted to have sexual relations with him. Mike would get angry when I wore clothes to bed and would wake me up at least 1/week by groping my breasts and being inside me without my consent. This argument lasted several hours. He kept asking over and over again if he was too small for me and asked about my past boyfriends' sizes. (This is a common conversation. While he was in Iraq May 2009, he demanded to know how big my hand was - the circumference of it - so that he could compare it to his size. I had to send him a picture of my hand with measuring tape around it) He demanded to know the details of my sexual assault that occurred on 1/2/2000 (police report 00-00355). When I couldn't remember the exact detail, he accused me of lying and said I liked being raped. Finally, I couldn't take anymore. I screamed at him about how embarrassing he acted, about the huge Confederate flag on his truck and swastikas on his clothing, that I hated supporting him, etc. He became livid at me when I told him he needed counseling. I told him I was going to bed as I had to go to work in a few hours and locked the bedroom door. The argument resumed the next day, as usual. As usual, he harassed me by phone at work, calling 5-7 times, making me upset in front of clients, and getting angrier when I would hang up on him or not answer the phone at all.
December 5, 2009 My dad's transplant – I received a call from my mom saying that they had a liver for my dad and that he was going into surgery so I needed to get to Northwestern Hospital downtown. We were so excited. My father had non-alcoholic liver disease from being diabetic. I spent much of fall 2009 testing to be a donor for my dad but was turned down. I was very emotionally drained from dealing with this. During that time, Mike was very angry that I was spending so much time at the hospital and away from him. Anyway, when I got the call, I was sitting on the floor crying because my dad was going to have his transplant. Mike was very angry at me and demanded to know why I was crying. He didn't understand the human feeling I had concerning my father. A 3 hour argument ensued about how I didn't care for him, the sexual interrogations happened, etc just like "normal." I was unable to see my dad before he went into surgery because my husband was yelling at me for hours. I had to say goodbye to my dad on the phone.
November 2009/December 2009 - Two Examples Where Mike took out his anger at others on me - In November, he made me go to and pay the costs to go to the NSM event in Phoenix. This was the last event I attended. While at dinner, someone told the waiter that it was Mike's birthday and they had the waitstaff sing to him. Mike hated this, became very irate, and blamed me. He yelled at me the whole way back to the hotel and left me in the room all night by myself. He also woke me at around 5am to ridicule me even more. December 24, he forced me to go with him to Minnesota to visit his family in a blizzard for Christmas, even though this was the last Christmas when my father would be alive. His brother in law told a joke that Mike took personally. I laughed at it and he became very irate, yelled at me. He also freaked out when he learned that his mom emailed me and he even sat over me, making me log into my email and block her email address. I was not allowed to interact with his family and he would not permit them to have a wedding party for us.
Sept, 2009 (Labor Day weekend), Mike made me attend an event hosted by a violent skinhead group. At this event, an act of violence occurred that terrified me. This was my first and last time seeing violence. My husband yelled at me because I went to the hotel room to get behind a locked door and didn't "stay with my man." He didn't care that I was terrified. He told me I needed to learn how to fight. I said that wasn't going to happen. I also learned that weekend that a "CI Pastor" kicked in his wife's face after he accused her of cheating on him (I doubt she really did) and my husband thought it was perfectly acceptable to treat a woman that way. I was present during the conversation when this was discussed. This scared me. I told him I wanted to go home. After the Sept event is when my anxiety attacks really hit and I started having nightmares where Mike would kill me. This happened several times per week. I started taking action to leave then. However, in October, 2009, my father got very sick from non-alcoholic liver disease and I became absorbed in trying to become his liver donor. I took a lot of tests and was turned down in November. He had a transplant in December.
He told my dad he was backing away from the group and I agreed to marry him in May, 2009. I figured I could deal with his politics while he was transitioning into a normal life since he wasn't engaging in violence or illegal activity. I loved Mike, saw his kinder side, and figured that with some TLC that he would easily transition into a normal lifestyle. He ended up going overseas to work and started talking about how he enjoyed talking to the Black women & his staff from Asia while he was in Iraq during the previous year. Mike was back in Iraq from May – August 2009.
Two months after we were married, he quit his job and was planning a rally. He never worked while we were married and used me as a financial slave. He put a huge confederate flag in the back of his truck window – parked it in front of my house in my upper middle class neighborhood! I was so humiliated & isolated. I begged him to remove it. I could not have normal people in my house because of the shame. My daughter could not have friends over. Once, some kids came over to take her to a birthday party and Mike chased them away and called them racial slurs because they weren't white. I found out about this after Mike was already out of the house. Shortly afterward, my daughter started having anxiety attacks and talked about being bullied. She never wants to see him again.
Eric Scott Norling Captured By Authorities In Mexico
Eric Scott Norling(not to be confused with Eric "Scott" Kriske) was an Illinois neo-Nazi who first came to our attention in 2009 when he was believed to have attended the Volksfront "race over all" gathering, which took place in a VFW hall on Cicero ave. in Alsip. He has since joined up with the Nazi Lowriders after doing time in Bakersfield, CA. The details are unclear as of now but it seems Norling, for whatever reason, attempted to take refuge in Michoacan, Mexico where he was captured by authorities. More details coming soon.
Translated from doradosdevilla.blogspot.com
An investigation conducted by elements of the International Coordination Liaison of the State Preventive Police (PEP), culminated with the arrest of a dangerous offender belonging to a neo-Nazi gang, in which he committed various hate crimes, arms trafficking, vehicle theft and armed assault.
Alfredo Arenas Moreno, International Liaison Coordinator, reported that he was captured in the port of Ensenada. Eric Scott Norling, 48-year-old belongs to the "nazi low riders", a criminal group that has dozens of members who have committed hate crimes in several States in the US.
"Data provided by our American counterparts was key to establishing the whereabouts of this offender, we took the necessary measures to subdue and arrest Scott Norling, whom we recognized by his tattoos," said Arenas Moreno.
The operation in which stopped Eric Scott Norling was conducted in the vicinity of the fraccionamiento Valle Dorado, where a security device was mounted to encircle the offender who was intercepted at lake Patzcuaro.
The "Nazi lowriders" have their origins from the middle of the seventies, beginning in Southern California, then later extended to several States in america.
Because of the dangerousness of the detainee, preventive State actors handed him over immediately to US authorities, so he can be judged for the crimes committed in that country.

Every brand is now focusing on content production. Advertising agencies and businesses have realized that good quality content (primarily video) is essential for brand storytelling. There are several reasons why I believe that Los Angeles is the best place in the world to produce video content.
Los Angeles has the technology.
Because of the long Hollywood history associated with Los Angeles, L.A. is a hub of traditional and the latest technology for production. Camera systems and post-production facilities of all levels and specialties are available in here. From visual effects to the latest Virtual Reality production, L.A. continues to be at the leading edge of content technology resources.
Los Angeles has the locations.
From massive natural rock formations to pre-lit studios, L.A. has thousands of choices when it comes to places to produce content. There are several urban locations including the Sepulveda Dam and the 3rd street bridge downtown that can represent a time from our past, and the wide range of technical studios in L.A. give Producers many options for production locations.
Los Angeles has the People.
From Directors of Photography to 3D animators, L.A. has incredible talent.
Incredibly talented people from all over the world have decided to re-locate in L.A. because of the major studio proximity as well as the tech boom in "Silicon Beach" (West L.A & Santa Monica).
Many new jobs have been created as a result of the newer technologies being used in content production. There are talented people in L.A. who can execute 360-degree camera work as well as serve as digital image technicians for productions.
Los Angeles has been the hub of the film industry since the early 20th Century, and with the proliferation of Virtual Reality, 3D and Branded Content, L.A. is the best place in the world to get those types of projects done.
Bob Bekian is a content producer and the owner of Loyal Studios based in Los Angeles.

Airport manager: Government shutdown is having 'no impacts' at COU
COLUMBIA - The partial government shutdown is having "no impacts" on operations at the Columbia Regional Airport, the airport's manager said Wednesday.
Mike Parks told the city's Airport Advisory Board he did not have exact numbers on the number of TSA agents who might have called out sick but said he's seen "no impacts whatsoever."
He added: "I see the same people everyday working out there as normal."
In an interview after the meeting, Parks said TSA at the airport has "operated as normal."
"Screening procedures have continued," he said.
On Monday, The Associated Press reported the percentage of TSA workers missing work nationally was 10 percent.
Wednesday's board meeting was the first since an American Airlines plane slid off the runway. There was no mention of the incident at the meeting.
B.J. Hunter, the board's chair, said it sounded like the airport handled the incident professionally.
"Your first thought is 'Oh my gosh! What happened? But then you find out it was, it was more of a taxiing accident. It wasn't like the plane was careening off the runway," he said. "So it kind of turned into a non-issue."
Parks said the airport continues to make safety a priority.
"We continue doing snow removal operations," he said. "We have a snow and ice control plan and things like that."
The airport does not have equipment capable of removing a disabled aircraft and it does not have any plans of purchasing one, Parks said.
A spokesman for the airline that operated the flight, Mesa Airlines, said the airline retained a company to remove the aircraft the day after it slid off the runway Jan. 11.
Parks said the airplane sliding off is a "very minor incident."
Also at Wednesday's meeting, Parks released data showing the number of times someone boarded an aircraft increased more than 38 percent from 2017 to 2018. There were 88,059 passengers in 2017 and 121,691 in 2018.
The number of people flying into Columbia increased more than 39 percent. There were 87,801 passengers in 2017 and 122,193 in 2018.
Hunter said the numbers show the airport is "doing the right things."
"We've got flights going [to] the right destinations," he said. "And the airlines see it as well. They continue to add flights and or bring bigger planes. Either way, it adds seats, which gives us more capacity to carry more people."
In addition, Parks said the airport plans to add about 200 new parking spots, which should be be available sometime after April 1.

You may have heard that Apple Pay requires the use of fingerprints.
What you haven't heard, is the terrifying results it had on its users. Only three weeks after its launch, lots of people have reported missing fingers. That's because they were cut off by the bad guys.
To make purchases with stolen iPhones, the criminals now need the owners' fingers. That's why some of the iPhone owners wake up with their fingers missing.
This is the photo of victim's hand. It was found on Fox News website, where this story was reported.
But can the criminals be blamed? They need to make a living too, just like you and me. So have some sympathy, my friend. Release them from blame and blame Apple. Yes, blame Apple, iPhone, and its iBend for your missing fingers. Maybe if iPhone did not bend, the criminals would not find it that attractive and you would still have your fingers.
States where the iPhone owners have reported their fingers being cut include California, Michigan, Oregon, Florida, and Texas. Washington D.C. was not one of these states, however. The criminals are apparently so disgusted by politicians' fingers that they want to avoid touching them.


For over 70 years CPW has been providing "holidays that make a difference", where you'll find food for thought, faith and friends.
All our events offer engaging talks and activities, prayer and socialising, in a community setting. Some are for people of all ages, and others for those aged 18 and over.
In 2017, we are holding nine events, on a range of themes including leadership, Newman's legacy, hope, and holy places.
You will find details of all 2017 events on this page, and a printable booking form here. If you would like extra copies of the brochure please ring or email the Secretary (contact details on this page). Alternatively, you can download a complete copy of the brochure here.

Ikea has published a short promotional film for its 2014 catalogue, outlining the process behind its new visualisation app. Using augmented reality (AR), the user can place virtual furniture into their own home to see how it will look, and if it will fit.
After scanning selected pages of the printed 2014 catalogue with the Ikea catalogue app – available for both iOS and Android – or by browsing the digital document on a smartphone or tablet, the user simply places the printed catalogue in the desired location for the furniture visualisation, and chooses a product from a current range of 90 to see how it will look in their home. The app uses the catalogue itself to judge the approximate scale of the furnishings – measuring the size of the catalogue itself (laid on the floor) in the camera and creating an augmented reality image of the furnishings so it appears correctly in the room.
According to Ikea, making the most of the available space in a home is particularly important in the UK because it has the smallest houses in Western Europe, with the average house having shrunk to as little as 85 sqm.
Peter Wright, country marketing manager, Ikea UK and Ireland, says: "When our designers and interiors experts started to think about how we could use augmented reality to help our customers, we felt that we could solve some of the very real problems they face.
"Our customers want to be able to test out whether the products they've been inspired by in our catalogue will work in their own homes – particularly when it comes to larger pieces of furniture. Offering a way of using mobile technology to enable to test products means the technology has a practical purpose and really helps customers visualise the way their homes could look.
"It means they can bring the Ikea catalogue into their own homes from the comfort of the very sofa they're planning to replace."
The print version of the Ikea catalogue will also feature over 50 pages that readers can scan with their mobile to get access to additional product information, videos and alternative views of products.
The new app will launch in the Apple App Store and Google Play on 25th August. Take a look at the film by clicking on the link below.

Which Is the Better Samsung Galaxy Foldable in 2021?
Lifehacker Australia 7/12/2021 Lauren Rouse
It's hard to believe we're back in a world where foldable phones are a thing, but it's true. The good news is that foldable phones have come a long way since your old Motorola flip phone, and Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip3 and Z Fold3 are leading the way in that department.
For this review, I trialled Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip3 and Galaxy Z Fold3 at the same time to see how they held up in terms of everyday usability. I can honestly say I was impressed by both phones. Not only are they solid handsets in their own right but the folding technology is pretty incredible.
Let's see how they compare.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 vs. Galaxy Z Fold3
Before we get into things, here are some key specs that might be handy to know about the Galaxy Z Flip3 and Galaxy Z Fold3.
Main Display: 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X, Infinity Plex Display (2208 x 1768) 374ppi
Cover Display: 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X (2268 x 832) 387ppi
Dimensions: 128.1 x 158.2 x 6.4mm (unfolded), 67.1 x 158.2 x 16mm (folded to hinge)
Storage: 512GB or 265GB
Battery: 4,400mAh dual battery
Inner/Main display: 6.7-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X, Infinity Flex Display (2640 x 1080), 425 ppi.
Outer/Cover display: 1.9-inch Super AMOLED Display (512 x 260) 303 ppi.
Dimensions: 72.2 x 166 x 6.9mm (unfolded), 72.2 x 86.4 x 17.1 mm (folded, hinge)
Check out a full list of specs and features on Samsung's website.
What's good?

Right off the bat, there were a bunch of things I liked about the Galaxy Fold3 and Galaxy Flip3. Both smartphones are built on very similar technology, just presented in different packages.
Folding technology
Let's jump straight into the thing everyone wants to know about - the folding. Both phones are equipped with a dynamic AMOLED infinity flex touch screen display housed in a sturdy frame that quite literally folds.
To my mind, this technology is already pretty wild to think about. A screen that can bend? Huge. However, technology hasn't quite got us to the point where the crease is invisible on either phone yet.
When the screen is blank it's quite clear it has a crease, but I can honestly say this didn't disrupt me while using either the Flip or Fold. Watching videos, browsing and typing messages came across clearly and the crease never got in my way. On certain angles, and under certain light, the crease does become more noticeable but readjusting your angle can easily make that go away.
The Flip 3 and Fold 3 are also both very sturdy units. They often require the use of both hands to pry open and close shut due to the strength of the hinge. This is probably disappointing if you miss the days of smoothly flipping your phone open with one hand, but for an expensive handset like the Samsung Flip or Fold, it's actually more reassuring to have a tough frame.
Another big feature Samsung added to this generation of foldables is IPX8 water resistance and dust resistance. This means you can still damage your phone by dropping it in a pool or burying it in the sand, but the odd bit of dust build-up or spill won't kill it.
Where things start to differ between Samsung's Flip3 and Fold3 is the design.
The Flip3 was easily my preferred device of the two. Its small size and compactness were preferable to someone like me who has smaller hands and minimal pocket space. I'm also accustomed to using an iPhone every day, and of the two, the Flip3 is closer to that design.

The Fold3, on the other hand, is a much larger unit. It's about as close as you can get to a fully-fledged tablet or iPad while still being a phone. The fold tech does help the phone straddle the best of both worlds, but it's definitely built for people who want to use their phone as a working instrument, not just a casual communication device.
The huge amount of extra screen real-estate on the Fold3 is built for productivity and Samsung's user experience and app design is growing to allow for more multitasking across both halves of the Fold's massive display. The Fold3 is also Samsung's first foldable to feature S-Pen support, which adds to its usefulness as a work device.
One thing I can say I absolutely loved on both devices was their displays. Despite being foldable screens, none of the quality was sacrificed here and the extra brightness and 120Hz refresh rate consistently blew me away.
Everything from videos to web browsing to mobile games looked silky smooth and vibrant on both the Fold3 and Flip3. It made me realise just how much of a difference a decent refresh rate can make.

The cameras on the Flip3 and Fold3 are nothing to sneeze at.
Both phones are equipped with a 12MP ultra-wide and 12MP wide-angle camera while the Fold3 also has a telephoto lens. I'm no camera pro but any pictures I took with these cameras looked slick. The Fold3 could be a little difficult to take pictures with while unfolded but the advantage is that you get an extra wide screen to examine your shots before you take them.

One cool feature of the Galaxy Flip3 is its ability to turn the cover screen into an extra display for your camera. This means you can close your phone, see yourself on the cover display, line up the perfect selfie angle and take a picture all while the Flip3 is folded. It's a small yet useful feature that sets the Flip3 apart.
One thing that's also worth mentioning is the operating system of both phones. Android 11 is quite simply a boss system to use. I'll admit I've been ingrained in the Apple system for too long now to understand all the ins and outs of Android, but I found the design and experience of Android 11 to be super user-friendly and may well turn me to the dark side someday.
Particularly on these phones, Android really stuck out. Both phones have customisable widgets that can be adjusted on the cover screen for ease of use. As I mentioned, the UX of the Fold3 has also been designed with fold technology in mind, meaning multitasking and app usage is smooth and adaptive to the phone's larger design.
What's not so good?
While there's a lot to love about the Flip3 and Fold3 phones, they do have some downsides.
While I may have sung the praises of the Flip3's small compact structure, the same cannot be said for the Fold3. It is a beast.
The Fold3 isn't exactly a one-handed phone that you can scroll through in the middle of the night. Even when folded it is a big chunk of phone and it noticeably stuck out of my pockets.
I enjoyed doing things like reading, browsing or playing games on the Fold3's larger screen, but it was quite simply too large a device for me. While the Fold3 can pretty much do it all, it can't compare with the portability of other phones. It is, however, the most portable tablet-style phone.
One of the main things that stuck out to me when using both the Flip3 and Fold3 was the battery life. I found that on a full charge with constant use I could barely get a day out of the Samsung foldables.
This isn't entirely surprising seeing as the batteries in these devices are doing some heavy lifting to keep up the power required here. One thing I can say, coming from an Apple background, is that both devices are powered by USB-C charging which I wholeheartedly appreciate.
Samsung Galaxy Fold3 vs Galaxy Flip3: The verdict
Adapting to the use of a folding phone requires its own mindset, so you really want to be sure you're in it for the gimmick before you buy one of Samsung's foldables.
Folding technology has taken a step forward with these two devices, but it still has a bit further to go until the crease is completely removed. That being said, these are incredibly decent handsets. They can literally do anything an S-series Samsung smartphone would do, but you have to be ready to do it in a folding package.
If you're trying to decide between the two, the price is worth considering. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 starts at $1,499 and the Fold3 retails for $2,499. This is pretty hefty, but not too ridiculously pricey in the world of smartphones.
As I touched on earlier, the Fold3 really suits those who want to get tasks done on their phone. That, or anyone who wants a giant portable screen for watching movies or gaming that can also double as a phone.
I personally preferred the Flip3 because of its more user-friendly and portable design. To me, it captured the essence of a smartphone while also housing the flip mechanic, whereas the Fold3 felt like it was meant for use as a tablet device.
Do you really need a foldable phone in your life? Probably not, but damn these were fun to use regardless.

All of which we monitor as best we can, but we only have a small team and woodlands regularly experience all sorts of problems, from fly-tipping, to broken furniture, to vandalism, to fallen branches...the list goes on.
We are currently recruiting volunteer Wood Wardens - local people, who use their community woodland regularly, whether it's to walk their dog, or to get some fresh air. These people know the sites well anyway, and are visiting them all the time, so they will be the ideal eyes on the ground to let us know if something is wrong, or needs sorting out.
Helping us to kit-out our Wood Wardens frees up our limited resources to get back to our main focus - planting another 5 million trees in the Forest area. As we are a Community Forest, the sites are there for local people to use, enjoy and - hopefully - take care of. Love your Forest!
If you have any questions about becoming a Wood Warden, click here to read more about being a volunteer or contact Jo on 01234 762608, or send her an email.

Clarity icons are light, modern & beautiful icon theme. It is based on famous Aw0ken and Token icon themes, lots of shapes and basic color pallete was taken from these icons. Creator also used some shapes from OpenClipart, Wikipedia, Humanity icon theme and ACYL icon theme. Most of other icons are also designed by simplifying existed icons/logos. Mostly icons are in monoshape, but some icons also have additional elements. This icon theme has 8 templates to build different colors icons, so I created all those colors and uploaded to our PPA, further more if you want different color then you can download and follow instructions to create your own customized color icon set. The eight variants available are as follows: violaceus (violet/pink gradient), lux_violaceus (glossy), canus (grey gradient), dark_canus (dark grey gradient), caeruleus (blue gradient), lux_caeruleus (glossy), viridis (green gradient), and luteus (orange gradient). This icon theme is compatible with Unity, Gnome, Xfce, Mate, etc. In following screenshots Ambiance Blackout and Flat were used. You can use Unity Tweak Tool, Gnome-tweak-tool or Ubuntu-Tweak to change icons.

John Robert Lawrence Allen,  (25 October 1932 - 18 October 2020) was a British geologist who made substantial contributions to sedimentology and archeology. He took a 1st class degree in geology at the University of Sheffield in 1955 and then proceeded to research for a PhD. However, notwithstanding declining to submit his thesis for examination, his outstanding qualities were recognised by the Professor of Geology at Reading University, another, but unrelated Percival Allen, with the award of the Martin Lees Research Fellowship in 1958. So began a career at the University of Reading which continued to his retirement: appointment as lecturer in geology in 1961 was followed by promotion to Reader in 1967 and to a Personal Professorship of Geology in 1972 at the age of 39. In 1988 he was appointed Director of the newly formed Postgraduate Research Institute in Sedimentology. The flagship MSc trained many outstanding students, among whom are leading figures of the world's oil industry. Emeritus Professor since 2001, John continued to teach and be involved in the university until his death.

Honours
Allen received a number of awards in his career:

The Lyell Medal of the Geological Society of London in 1980.

The Twenhofel Medal of the Society for Sedimentary Geology SEPM, in 1987.

The G. K. Warren Prize of the US National Academy of Sciences in 1990.

The Sorby Medal of the International Association of Sedimentologists (IAS) in 1994.

The Penrose Medal of the Geological Society of America in 1996.

He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) on 1979.
and a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London (FSA) on 21 November 1991.

How are clinical trials carried out?
Different phases of clinical trials
Before new cancer treatments or drugs are given to people in trials they are first tested in laboratories using cancer cells. They then go through 3 phases (or steps) of being tested in trials before they are approved for use.
Phase 1 trials
The treatment is given to a small number of people. The trial is to see how the treatment effects the body and how much of the treatment can be given without causing serious side effects.
The treatment is tested on a larger number of people to see which cancers it would be best used for. The researchers also learn more about potential side effects and the best dose to use.
The treatment is tested on a very large number of people. It is compared to the standard treatment already available to find out if it works better. Manufacturers can apply for a licence for the drug or treatment after phase 3 trials, if the drug is seen to be safe and effective.
This phase happens after approval, to research the long-term benefits and risks.
Reviewed: 31 May 2018 Next review: 2020
How we write our information and the sources we use
Researchers carry out treatment trials in a series of phases (or steps). They test possible new cancer drugs or treatments in a laboratory first.
To make sure drugs are safe, researchers test them on animals before they give them to people in trials. Using animals in research is highly regulated. Gov.uk and Cancer Research UK have more information about this.
If the drugs are effective in laboratory tests, researchers test them in phase 1 trials with people affected by cancer.
If these are successful, researchers test the drugs in phase 2 trials and then phase 3 trials. Phase 4 trials test drugs that are already licensed for use.
Phase 1 trials are the first tests involving people for a new drug or type of treatment. Before this, it has only been tested in the laboratory.
These trials usually involve individual drugs rather than a combination of drugs. For example, it could be a trial of a new targeted drug, immunotherapy drug or chemotherapy drug.
Phase 1 trials usually happen in cancer clinical research units at specialist hospitals. Sometimes this means you have to travel further to a hospital to have the trial.
A phase 1 trial aims to find out:
how much of a drug can be given safely
what side effects it causes
whether it has any effect on the cancer.
These trials involve very few people. People taking part have usually already had treatments, but they are no longer working for them. Other standard cancer treatments are unlikely to be helpful for them.
To take part, you need to meet the inclusion criteria to make sure you are reasonably well. This is because these trials are used to find out about side effects.
Before you can enter a trial, doctors or nurses may ask questions to see how well you manage day-to-day activities. Doctors call this performance status. It makes sure people who are already feeling unwell do not have a treatment that may not work for them and may make them feel worse.
How phase 1 trials work
The research team give the first people in the trial a small dose of the drug that is expected to be safe. Depending on the side effects, the next group get a higher dose. The dose keeps increasing with each group.
Researchers look carefully at the different side effects and whether they are mild, moderate or severe. This helps them work out the best dose to give.
In a phase 1 trial, researchers do not know whether people will benefit from the new treatment. Finding out the best dose to give and its side effects is an important stage before testing how effective the drug is.
The drug or treatment goes on to a phase 2 trial if:
it is safe
there are signs that it may have an effect on the cancer.
what types of cancer the drug might be best used to treat
more about the side effects of the drug and how to manage them.
Phase 2 trials involve more people, who are monitored closely to see how well the drug or treatment is working against the cancer. Even though it has been through a phase 1 trial, researchers still look at the side effects. They test in bigger groups to find any side effects they have not seen before.
it has an effect on the cancer
it is safe.
A phase 3 trial involves bigger groups of people. It compares trial treatments that are giving good results with the current best standard treatments. It may also give more information about any side effects the new treatment may cause.
A phase 3 trial looks at whether a new treatment:
is as good as the standard treatment
causes fewer side effects.
Phase 3 trials usually involve a randomisation process. A computer chooses the groups, to avoid bias. The trial compares the standard treatment with the new treatment. It may also involve a placebo. A placebo looks the same as the drug or treatment being tested, but it does not act on the cancer.
Once phase 3 trials have shown a drug to be safe and effective, manufacturers of the drug can apply for a drug license. Licensed drugs are available for use. Most licences are given by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). Or the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) can give a licence for a drug to be used in the UK only.
Drugs that are licensed may go through phase 4 trials for further research.
I took part in a clinical trial of a new chemotherapy drug. I'd already had treatment so my progress was measured against the new one.
Ron, clinical trial participant
These are done after a drug has proved to work well and is licensed. They aim to find out:
how well the drug works when it is used more widely
the long-term risks and benefits of the drug
more about possible rare side effects and the safety of the drug.

What's Black and White and Wrong All Over?
If you don't know what you're talking about, apply to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. They'll make you a columnist.
We were tipped off by Inside Cable News to yet another newspaper column decrying the coverage of missing persons cases on cable news. Mike Seate, in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, writes:
If you're woman who fears getting lost this summer, here's a sure-fire [sic] hint that will help you get found again: Be white.... Although the disproportionate amount of media attention paid to the nation's missing pretty white girls would make most of us realize how little chance a black, Hispanic or even average-looking woman has of being found alive, this fact was apparently lost on Melvin Figueroa. The Philadelphia man has been hard at work lobbying TV news outlets to make at least a cursory mention of the disappearance of his daughter LaToyia, who was last seen July 18.... After being chastised for ignoring the story, executives in the newsroom at CNN did relent and give the story lip service on July 27. But without the suntanned sex appeal of a Laci Peterson, it was unlikely that much air time would be devoted to Ms. Figueroa's case.
It's nice to know that CNN did provide "lip service", but it seems odd that Mr Seate would focus on an also-ran news channel with declining viewership to prove his case. Perhaps the wording of his column is meant to suggest that CNN at least mentioned the story, unlike some reactionary racist news channels [read: FNC]. Why else would he point out a fleeting reference on CNN, but then ignore the coverage Fox News has given the case? Including:
Dayside
The Fox Report
At Large with Geraldo Rivera
"Not much air time" devoted to the case? Here is just a sampling of Fox News coverage in late July and August:
Apparently Mr Seate, who believes cable news begins and ends in Atlanta, is not a Fox watcher. Maybe he gets his notions about FNC from sources like the newshounds (another fine product of the Outfoxed cabal). The curs are always ready to smear FNC, and on this topic they did not disappoint:
another missing white girl, the only kind that seems to get FOX News attention
One missing white person after another.
I dare you to find a case where FOX News has given similar attention to a missing black child - or any kind of human interest story involving African Americans other than those who are accused of wrongdoing.... Go ahead, prove me wrong.
No comment necessary.

Tesco Bags of Help - Great News!
We have been awarded a grant of £12,000 by Tesco's Bags of Help initiative.
Tesco teamed up with Groundwork to launch its Bags of Help Initiative where 3 community groups in each region are awarded grants of £12,000, £10,000 and £8,000. The public voted in store to decide which local groups should receive the awards and Ridgeway got the most votes in this area.
The school will use the money to develop the area between the main block and the field into an outdoor learning space complete with tables, chairs and a fixed canopy. We also hope to introduce planters to grow vegetables and flowers in. We don't know when the work will start yet, but we'll keep you informed.
Thanks to everyone who shopped in Tesco and voted for us, it's going to make a big difference to our children!


Life is uncertain. Life is sometimes chaotic. And we make it worse by over-filling our calendar and our to-do lists which makes life hectic and draining. I'm now two months into the mentored practicum to become a certified Forest Therapy Guide. It is exciting to discover new skills and activities that can counteract all of this craziness of modern Western life! "Sit-Spot" is one of these practices I am now using regularly.
It is a gift to EXPERIENCE SILENCE—no talking to others, no demands from others, no droning background noise to life. (Even extroverted chatty me benefits from silence occasionally!) At Christmas, we often sing about a "Silent Night" – but how often do we actually experience one?! Studies have shown that human-made noise pollution adds significant amounts of unrecognized stress to our daily lives. It's hard to completely avoid human-sounds, but we can try!
Sit-Spot is another way to form DEEP CONNECTIONS WITH THE NATURAL WORLD. People have lived closely intertwined with nature since the beginning of time. Today's loss of connection is at the root of many of the maladies affecting us in our current chaotic culture. (You can explore some of the scientific studies and other resources about the importance of Nature Connection HERE.) The practice of Sit-Spot helps us return to our roots—literally!
By returning to the same place on a regular basis, I NOTICE SMALL CHANGES. I enjoy watching the tall grasses "dance" in a breeze. I see plants changing through the seasons. I feel subtle differences as weather systems approach. I hear insects and birds and begin to notice their patterns. When I sit regularly, Nature is no longer merely a backdrop for daily life, but becomes something to enjoy in and of itself.
Sit-Spot GIVES ME A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE. The troubles and trials (and even celebrations) of my life are not the center of history or of the universe (much as I might want to believe otherwise! HA!) I laugh at the cheeky squirrels—stealing nuts from each other, stuffing themselves for winter hibernation, and wobbling their chubby way along the fence top. I mourn the deaths of birds and beasts. I enjoy the brilliant colors of fall leaves. As I connect with the natural world, I am reminded that everyone and everything is doing the best they can with their one wild and precious life…and that's enough.
I invite you to join me in discovering the gifts found through a simple Sit-Spot outside. I would love to hear YOUR favorite things from connecting with the natural world. Please drop me a comment below!

Will ASCs halt surgeries as COVID-19 surges? Execs prep for next few months
Laura Dyrda - Friday, August 6th, 2021 Print	| Email
COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations are surging again, with hot spots primarily in southern states like Texas, Louisiana and Florida, according to The New York Times' Aug. 6 data.
An increasing number of hospitals and health systems in those states are delaying elective surgeries to focus on COVID-19 patients.
Cherokee Gonzales, BSN, RN, regional director of ambulatory surgery centers at Florida Medical Clinic in Land O' Lakes, said her centers are preparing to receive elective procedures the hospitals will defer because of COVID-19 surge capacity plans.
"I expect the next few months to be busy. I don't expect the Florida government to shut down alternative sites of care like they did in March 2020, so we are doing our best to be ready," she said. "We learned a lot last year about being prepared."
Ms. Gonzalez said the center will maintain infection control protocols implemented during the pandemic. She also is stocking up on supplies and contracting with staffing agencies to bring additional staff on board.
"Most importantly, we are looking at ways to maintain and care for the staff we have," she said.
ASC administrators in Texas, like Alfonso Del Granado, who heads up Covenant High Plains Surgery Center in Lubbock, are watching the numbers closely.
"Hospitals here are creeping up to the 15 percent threshold, and if they decide to clamp down on elective cases, we'll have to be mindful about putting into effect contingency plans to limit cases that are at higher risk for transfer," Mr. Del Granado said. "We are also continuing to enforce existing screening and testing protocols, and are keeping up our personal protective equipment inventory. That said, we do not believe there will be a renewed crisis that would likely affect operations."
Covenant High Plains Surgery Center's team is working with its hospital partner and national management company to forecast COVID-19 cases in the area, and Mr. Del Granado said he is cautious but hopeful.
"We are continuing to plan for increasing cases over the next few months and are not suspending implementation of new programs, but of course we always have contingencies in place in case conditions change," he said.
Jessica Hovland, DNP, RN, administrative director of ambulatory surgery center at UT Health Austin ASC, is taking a similar approach as Mr. Del Granado. She has not implemented any changes to ASC operations yet but plans to support hospitals in the community as they consider canceling some elective surgeries.
"Whatever we can do to continue offering the care that is needed throughout Austin and the surrounding cities, we are determined to remain a strong force that can provide those resources," Dr. Hovland said.
Susan Cheek, administrator of Dallas Endoscopy Center, plans to continue safety measures and protocols through the surge.
"We restrict outside visitors and family members from coming into our ASC," she said. "We also require all patients, employees and physicians to have their temperature checked and complete a health questionnaire screening upon entering the ASC. We require masks of all at the ASC."
For some centers, access to supplies will determine whether operations will go on during the surge. Celia Smith, RN, BSN, administrator of Houston Premier Surgery Center in The Villages, sent an email to staff members reminding them of the CDC's guidance on N95 masks and treating intubated patients.
Kim Price, RN, administrator of Central Kentucky Surgery Center, said her ASC hasn't made any changes during the current surge but could in the future.
"For the next few months, we are just very tightly watching supply chains, and, when opportunities arise, we are buying in bulk," she said. "We are all just hoping the end of all this will come sooner rather than later."
