The successful collaboration between Danish composer Christian Winther Christensen and SCENATET continues with the commission of a new piece Chorale.
Knocking Out From Heavens Door – a ten-year-old piece by Christian Winther Christensen is the inspiration for this new piece, which is composed for 8 musicians and instruments; acoustic guitar, electric guitar, flute, bass clarinet, piano, violin, viola and cello + max/msp. and is staged with the two guitars in the front. In Chorale a dynamic conversation between the two guitars is unfolding, however the acoustic guitar has the upper hand by the fact, that the electric guitar only will be amplified when the acoustic guitar is playing. As result the two instruments unite in a homogeneous timbre even though they are continually playing against each other. In the midst of it all brief flashes of O Mensch, bewein dein Sünde gross by J. S. Bach break through the electric guitar as ghostly triads from the piano comes and goes.
With Chorale Christian Winther Christensen invites the audience into an absurd sphere, where the relationship between real sound and synthetic reproductions is continuously being questioned.
Christian Winther Christensen works with an unusual refined approach to sound and composing as well as an innovative use of the traditional instruments of the Chamber Music in combination with electronic and artifacts like glass and liquids. His constant pushing and breaking of the boundaries and creations of the outmost groundbreaking is sustained by his awareness of and references to older classical pieces, which are often presented in a warm and humoristic way.
The World Premiere of Chorale was presented at the recognized MATA festival in New York April 25th and May 12th SPOR festival in Aarhus sets the stage of the Danish Premiere.
World Premiere at MATA festival 2017 (programme).
Christian Winther Christensen studied composition at the Royal Danish Conservatory with Bent Sørensen, Niels Rosing-Schow, Hans Abrahamsen and Hans-Peter Stubbe Teglbjærg as well as at the Paris Conservatoire with Frédéric Durieux. He has received Léonie Sonnings Music Prize, the Schierbeck Prize and yearly work grants from the Danish Arts Foundation, and his music has been performed by a long series of acclaimed international and Danish ensembles and orchestras.


Distance between Pinetown and Phuthaditjhaba. How many miles from Pinetown to Phuthaditjhaba.
The straight distance between Pinetown (KwaZulu-Natal) and Phuthaditjhaba (Free State) is 151.35 mi, but the driving distance is 203.89 mi.
It takes 3 hours 19 mins to go from Pinetown to Phuthaditjhaba.


(Newser) – A judge on Tuesday allowed a man charged in freeway shootings that rattled Phoenix last year to be released from jail amid questions about evidence authorities say links him to the crimes. The judge overseeing the case of Leslie Merritt Jr. reduced his bond to zero and said he can return to his home under electronic monitoring, the AP reports. He was expected to be released later in the day. The reduction of the bond—once $1 million—was a major victory as defense lawyers contend that ballistic tests cast doubt on the claim by authorities that Merritt was behind four of the freeway shootings. "With all due respect your honor, there's no evidence against him to show he's responsible for this," defense lawyer Jason Lamm said. "He is no more the I-10 shooter than, respectfully, you are."
Well, my question is did the shootings stop after his arrest? Of course he should be free if there is no evidence against him, but it is still a question I would want answered.
Glad the judge made this move. If the evidence isn't there then let the dude go home.

Jeffrey Rosen: America is living James Madison's nightmare
Yet while dependent on the people, the Constitution did not embrace simple majoritarian democracy. The states, with unequal populations, got equal representation in the Senate. The Electoral College also gave the states weight as states in selecting the president. But the centrality of states, a concession to political reality, was balanced by the House of Representatives, where the principle of representation by population prevailed, and which would make up the overwhelming number of electoral votes when selecting a president.
But none of this justified minority rule, which was at odds with the "republican principle." Madison's design remained one of popular government precisely because it would require the building of political majorities over time. As Madison argued in "Federalist No. 63," "The cool and deliberate sense of the community ought, in all governments, and actually will, in all free governments, ultimately prevail over the views of its rulers."
Alexander Hamilton, one of Madison's co-authors of The Federalist Papers, echoed this argument. Hamilton made the case for popular government and even called it democracy: "A representative democracy, where the right of election is well secured and regulated & the exercise of the legislative, executive and judiciary authorities, is vested in select persons, chosen really and not nominally by the people, will in my opinion be most likely to be happy, regular and durable."
The American experiment, as advanced by Hamilton and Madison, sought to redeem the cause of popular government against its checkered history. Given the success of the experiment by the standards of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, we would come to use the term democracy as a stand-in for representative democracy, as distinct from direct democracy.
Consider that President Abraham Lincoln, facing a civil war, which he termed the great test of popular government, used constitutional republic and democracy synonymously, eloquently casting the American experiment as government of the people, by the people, and for the people. And whatever the complexities of American constitutional design, Lincoln insisted, "the rule of a minority, as a permanent arrangement, is wholly inadmissible." Indeed, Lincoln offered a definition of popular government that can guide our understanding of a democracy—or a republic—today: "A majority, held in restraint by constitutional checks, and limitations, and always changing easily, with deliberate changes of popular opinions and sentiments, is the only true sovereign of a free people."
The greatest shortcoming of the American experiment was its limited vision of the people, which excluded Black people, women, and others from meaningful citizenship, diminishing popular government's cause. According to Lincoln, extending meaningful citizenship so that "all should have an equal chance" was the basis on which the country could be "saved." The expansion of we the people was behind the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments ratified in the wake of the Civil War. The Fourteenth recognized that all persons born in the U.S. were citizens of the country and entitled to the privileges and immunities of citizenship. The Fifteenth secured the vote for Black men. Subsequent amendments, the Nineteenth, Twenty-Fourth, and Twenty-Sixth, granted women the right to vote, prohibited poll taxes in national elections, and lowered the voting age to 18. Progress has been slow—and sometimes halted, as is evident from current efforts to limit voting rights—and the country has struggled to become the democratic republic first set in motion two centuries ago. At the same time, it has also sought to find the right republican constraints on the evolving body of citizens, so that majority rule—but not factious tempers—can prevail.

MP backing campaign to raise pledges
12th March 2018 By Shelley Dyte
Stroud MP David Drew is backing a campaign to raise £100,000 in pledges to carry out improvements to the Subscription Rooms.
Stroud Town Council has launched the campaign as part of its proposal to take on the lease of the venue and to ensure its future as a community-owned venue.
"I am pleased that a campaign is underway to preserve the Subscription Rooms as a community-owned asset for the people of the district and am happy to support it," said Mr Drew.
"The Subscription Rooms is at the heart of Stroud in so many ways and we should all work together to secure its future."
A public consultation will be held in the George Room at the Subscription Rooms between 10am and 12 noon on Saturday March 17.
Members of Stroud District Council's Task and Finish Group and representatives from Stroud Town Council will be at this event.
In just a week more than 151 people have pledged £17,398 to the campaign.
Stroud author Jamila Gavin has also backed the Sub Rooms initiative.
"The Stroud Subscription Rooms has been the historical heart of the town, and its most important building," she said. "It should always be in the hands of the town, the people of Stroud, and their representatives.
"We will know what we've lost if it goes, and once gone, will never be replaced."
Stroud District Council announced last year that it was considering the options for the future of the venue.
Following widespread community opposition the District Council decided not to sell the building and to keep the Subs in public ownership.
After the public consultation, the District Council's Task and Finish Group consisting of the district council's four party leaders will review the offer and the public consultation response, before making a recommendation to the District Council's Strategy and Resources Committee meeting on Thursday April 12.
"We are asking people to make a pledge to demonstrate to the District Council that there is wide-ranging community support to create a viable and vibrant cultural and arts centre," said Town Mayor Kevin Cranston.
"If our offer to Stroud District Council is successful we will launch a detailed plan for the future of the Subs at which time we'll be looking for vital early donations as we get up and running."
The money would be used to provide a new bar and café and improve the toilets . These improvements were highlighted by people who completed a recent Town Council survey.
People can make their pledge online on: www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/SubsPledge or by mobile on
www.surveymonkey.com/r/WDQ7JJL. Printed pledge forms are available from the Town Council offices or download here.
The campaign hashtag is #subspledge.

Kirchhoff has played for Bayern Munich in the past
ISL season 4 is up and running with all the sides having played at least three games thus far. Based on the start of the season, an early assessment can be done on where each side are excelling and where work needs to be done. Delhi Dynamos and Kerala Blasters are two sides currently in the bottom half of the table, struggling to produce consistent performances
The Blasters have struggled in front of goal whereas the defence and the midfield position alongside Paulinho Dias has been a worry for the Dynamos. Fortunately for the two sides, the January transfer window can prove to be a blessing as both teams can sign one foreigner each in the winter market.
The league ruling is that a team can have eight foreign players in their squad and currently, Kerala Blasters and Delhi Dynamos have the space for one more. Hence, they can sign one player in January to resolve some of their major issues. On that note, here are the five foreigners that can join the Indian Super League in January:
#5 Jan Kirchhoff
The defensive midfielder last played for Sunderland and is currently on the lookout for a new club. Kerala Blasters need a strong utility player in midfield whose presence will allow Dimitar Berbatov the freedom to perform his attacking duties without worrying about the defence.
Courage Pekuson, the current Blasters' defensive midfielder has not had the best of starts this season. Signing Kirchhoff, who can also play as a centre-back, can prove to be a smart move for Meulensteen who is desperately in need of goals which can be provided by moving Berbatov up the field.

Renewable fuel is playing an increasingly important role as a substitute for fossil based energy. The US Department of Energy (DOE) has identified pyrolysis based platforms as promising biofuel production pathways. In this paper, we present a general biofuel supply chain model with a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) methodology to investigate the biofuel supply chain facility location, facility capacity at strategic levels, and biofuel production decisions at operational levels. In the model, we accommodate different biomass supplies and biofuel demands with biofuel supply shortage penalty and storage cost. The model is then applied to corn stover fast pyrolysis pathway with upgrading to hydrocarbon fuel since corn stover is the main feedstock for second generation biofuel production in the US Midwestern states. Numerical results illustrate unit cost for biofuel production, biomass, and biofuel allocation. The case study demonstrates the economic feasibility of producing biofuel from biomass at a commercial scale in Iowa.

Report: MLB season may not start until July
Darren Yamashita-USA TODAY Sports
Major League Baseball announced on March 12 it was suspending the start of the 2020 season due to the coronavirus. While MLB fans are hoping to see their favorite sport return with Opening Day in May, those around baseball are reportedly concerned we might not see an MLB game until July.
According to The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Tom Haudricourt, July 4 is now the best-case scenario for the MLB season to begin. The potential timeline makes sense for the league with pitchers needing at least a month to get their arms prepared for a full workload. USA Today's Bob Nightengale also reported that multiple general managers are preparing for a delay until July.
MLB sent a memo to teams advising them to end organized workouts and to allow players to return home. The league's recommendation for teams to cease any activities where players "congregate in significant numbers" comes at a time when multiple Yankees' minor-league players tested positive for COVID-19.
The league's decision to have all players sent home is another strong indicator that the MLB season won't return in May, which remains the league's best-case scenario publicly.
Following the CDC's guidelines of restricting events of more than 50 people for the next eight weeks, we likely won't see teams even have a chance to report back to camp for two months. Since it will take players several weeks to prepare for the delayed season, which will create the need for intrasquad games and more chances for players to get back into rhythm, it becomes clearer why MLB may not return until July.
MLB still hasn't made a decision regarding its schedule for the 2020 season. While the league would ideally still like to hold a 162-game season, starting in July would mean the postseason might not arrive until December. The further Opening Day gets pushed back, the more likely it is that MLB implements a shortened season. For now, everyone around baseball must continue to wait and hope for America's pastime to return as soon as possible.

BLOCK PARTY: Celtics forward Al Horford stuff's Toronto's Serge Ibaka during the first half of yesterday's 95-94 victory at the Garden. Staff photo by Matt West
By Steve Bulpett | Boston Herald
PUBLISHED: November 13, 2017 at 12:00 a.m. | UPDATED: November 17, 2018 at 12:00 a.m.
Terry Rozier smiled as he spoke of Al Horford.
"He's a big help," Rozier said. "He's going to set screens to get you open, he's going to get himself open, he's a big plus for our team."
The glint in Rozier's eyes grew a bit brighter when he added, "He's playing young again."
Old Al Horford, all of 31, laughed when the line was repeated to him a short time later after the Celtics had survived Toronto, 95-94, and won their 12th straight.
"I don't know if young Al Horford played like this, to be honest," Horford said.
It would be hard for anyone to play as Al Horford did yesterday under his circumstances. He missed the previous two games in the NBA's concussion protocol, but there he was in the first quarter backing down Serge Ibaka to score, then driving in hard from the left for a dunk. Horford took nine shots and made eight of them on the way to 21 points, three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 33 minutes. He hit his only trey and is now shooting 48.7 percent from beyond the arc for the season.
And with the game on the line late, he switched to DeMar DeRozan and forced the Raptors star into one of his two key misses in the last 20 seconds.
"You know, it's been years of just working on my game and trying to play this new way," Horford said. "This is the style the NBA is shifting toward, and it's taken me a couple of years to get comfortable and play like this.
"Young Al Horford couldn't shoot 3's."
Young Al Horford aside, last year's Al Horford, wasn't this assertive with his offense until maybe the playoffs. But while he's still facilitating for others and playing the right way, he's also quicker to the trigger, whether it's an outside shot or a drive.
"Definitely," said Marcus Smart, who got the start for Kyrie Irving (facial fracture) and responded with 14 points and nine assists. "That's what we wanted from Al. His matchups are very tough, because they don't know whether to put a regular 5 on him or a smaller guy. We try to exploit that. We want Al to look more for his (shot), especially in the post when it's one-on-one. He has to look for it."
At the start of the day, the Celtics were just looking for Horford to be comfortable, to not suffer any setbacks from the hit to the head he took last Monday in Atlanta.
"It felt good," he said. "I was just happy to be out there with my teammates. It was hard for me to sit on the side and have to watch, and just going through a lot of stuff — a lot of flashbacks of last year (nine missed games with a concussion last November). I tried to stay calm and take it day to day and do everything that I needed to do. So I'm just happy to finally be back out on the court."
There were headaches and other symptoms, "typical stuff, concussion stuff," Horford said, but "it wasn't as severe as last year. Last year it was hard for me to just be out with the lights, out in the arena. It would take me back to square one. This time it wasn't that severe. I felt better, so I was confident that I was going to be OK."
As for the early moves to the bucket?
"One of the things that I wanted to make sure that I was feeling right, that I was good," he said, "and I just had to be aggressive."
Said Smart, "He brought that spirit back. Al's a very good offensive player that can go create for himself and others, and we need a bucket, we just ran our plays through him and he created for us."
And looked younger.
"Al's getting to the basket, dunking on guys, and he's not grabbing his knees," Smart cracked. "No, definitely Al's playing young, and that's the cool way to put it. I like that."
Neither playing that way or even playing as well as he did after the two games out didn't catch coach Brad Stevens unaware.
"No, I mean, I'm not surprised," Stevens said. "You know, obviously he missed a couple of days there and wanted to make sure he was in really good shape before he came back, but he's done so much for us for so long. Nothing that he does on the court surprises me."
As for Horford's increased assertiveness, Stevens said, "Well, he only took nine shots, and he made bunch of them. We as a team needed to do a better job of finding him I think at times. They had a real focus on being there on his catch today. They switched a lot of his screens, they tried to take away his 3-pointer, you know, they tried to be there and make it really hard to get looks, and so we had to play through Al a little bit as a passer, too.
"Our offense needs to smooth out still, but he's obviously going to be a huge focal point, and even more so when Kyrie (Irving)'s out."
Raptors coach Dwane Casey wasn't surprised either.
"I think he did what we knew he was going to do," he said. "He popped back, made some shots. He made some post-up shots that he normally makes. I don't think he did anything different that we didn't think he was going to do. He was Al Horford, All-Star that he is."
Back across the hall in the Celtics dressing room, it was more about Al the Kid.
"Al definitely looks like a young Al Horford, All-Star Al Horford, to be honest," said Jaylen Brown. "And he's playing really well at a high level. And if he keeps it up, we're going to be really tough."

Any student who fails to make a GPA of 2.0 or higher for any one semester, or who fails any course, receives the statement "academic warning" on the respective semester academic record.
Any student who fails to maintain a cumulative GPA of 1.5 is placed on academic probation. The statement, "academic probation," is placed on the student's academic record. A student on academic probation is required to consult with a faculty advisor or counselor and may be required to take less than the normal academic load in the next semester of attendance. Students are placed on probation only after they have attempted 12 semester credit hours. A person on probation is ineligible for appointed or elective office in student organizations, unless the vice president of student success, or designee, grants special permission.
Any student on academic probation who fails to attain a semester GPA of 1.5 for the next semester in attendance is subject to academic suspension. Academic suspension normally lasts one semester unless the student reapplies and is accepted for readmission to another curriculum of the College. The statement "academic suspension" is placed on the student's academic record. A student who has been informed of the academic suspension may submit an appeal in writing to the chair of the admissions and retention committee for reconsideration. Suspended students may be readmitted after the suspension period by submitting a written request for readmission. Students are placed on suspension only after they have attempted 24 semester credit hours.
A student who is reinstated to the College after having been academically suspended must achieve a semester GPA of 2.0 or better for the semester of reinstatement or be academically dismissed.
A student on academic suspension who does not maintain at least a 2.0 GPA for the semester of reinstatement will be academically dismissed. A student on academic suspension who achieves a 2.0 GPA for the semester of reinstatement must maintain at least a 1.5 GPA in each subsequent semester of attendance. A student remains on probation until the cumulative GPA is raised to a minimum of 1.5.
Failure to attain a 1.5 GPA in each subsequent semester until the cumulative GPA reaches 1.5 results in academic dismissal. Academic dismissal normally is permanent unless, with good cause, the student reapplies and is accepted under special consideration by the admissions and retention committee of the College. The statement "academic dismissal" is placed on the student's academic record.

What is Operations and Execution Management?
Manufacturing execution systems (MES) ensure that all facets of the operation — materials, people, processes, and equipment — act in concert, securely, and in compliance with industry, customer, and product specifications.
Furthermore, they track the transformation of products from raw materials to finished goods, monitor production according to quality specifications, and gather information on resources and asset utilisation. This assures that operators, supervisors, managers, and other decision makers have timely information to effectively manage the order flow and take corrective actions to keep quality and performance under control.
Digitally transforming, integrating, and standardising information flows and processes across inventory, production, and quality operations helps to improve operational efficiency. It also enforces predictable quality and compliance, increases profitability, and provides a foundation for continuous improvement.
The integration of MES with ERP or other business applications has become mission critical for manufacturing plant operations. It enables agile, short-term production planning and flexible update schedules. It also improves supply chain visibility and decision support by updating business applications with production responses and KPIs in real time.
Manufacturing Execution System for Batch and Hybrid Processes - Unique execution and data collection capabilities on automated plant equipment make our integrated manufacturing execution solution for batch and hybrid processes the first choice for automated production lines or fast-moving goods manufacturing. Synchronise human and machine actions dynamically and manage human processes with our sophisticated workflow management capabilities. With reliable, real-time production information, managers, and operators are equipped to streamline order flow and track the transformation of products from raw materials through finished goods. They can now also evaluate yield, quality, and resource utilisation better.
Manufacturing Execution System for Continuous Processes - This offers specific functionality and support for deployment throughout mining, minerals, and metals operations. This extends from extraction, smelters, and furnaces to storage and transportation for end-to-end production accounting and inventory management in near real-time. It empowers effective operational decision making based on KPIs for maximising the utilisation of operating assets, and to manage energy in real time, at the point of use. Integration with ERP and planning systems enables value chain visibility and optimisation.


A shank of the wrong geometry and/or alloy.
Shank: The current carrying electrode tip holder used when the tip is not inserted directly into the electrode adapter or welder arm (see figure).
Changing the shank from a male to a female tip or from a female to a male tip may change tip compatibility and/or the overall assembled length. Changing alloy material class will change the electrical and mechanical performance characteristics. Mismatched tapers will cause improper fit of the weld tips. Substituting a straight for an offset shank (or vice-versa) will change tip location relative to the other electrode. Overall length changes may create interferences or gaps between electrodes.


Maybe the six kids arrested recently for throwing rocks at moving cars and trucks didn't mean to hurt anybody. Maybe they didn't think about what can happen when a softball-sized rock slams into the windshield of a vehicle cruising at 50 or 60 miles per hour. That's no excuse. In fact, that's the problem. Either they didn't think about the consequences of their actions or they didn't care. Which is precisely why these rock-throwing incidents must not be dismissed as pranks. If the justice system doesn't forcefully oppose these kids, then other youths will go on thinking such troublemaking is fun.
The system must respond strongly to the incidents that caused no serious harm as well as the tragic April 3 rock-throwing that killed a Lothian father while he was driving home from work. In that case, prosecutors charged 16-year-old Jason Wayne Wyvill of Lothian as an adult with second-degree murder. It may be even more important, however, to deal severely with the five youths who tossed rocks at tractor-trailers from a U.S. 50 overpass near the Bay Bridge. Jason Wyvill, judging from the picture reporters have pieced together, is a troubled, possibly mentally ill youth who, prosecutors say, wanted to cause an accident. Ordinary teens with a penchant for mischief will not see themselves when they look at him. But they likely will identify with the U.S. 50 rock-throwers.
Ranging in age from 11 to 18, they don't appear to have been trying to hurt anyone. They were "bored," they told police. They were looking to pass the time, not cause an accident. They aimed at tractor-trailers because big trucks seemed less impersonal targets than cars. But they didn't think. It didn't occur to them that they could have killed someone.
It's time to stop protecting children from the consequences of their own actions. Kids need to be shaken up: If you play games with other people's lives and property, you pay a price. Forget about punishments as controversial as caning. What's the purpose of a spanking anyway? Not to hurt, but to humiliate. Embarrass young hooligans by treating them as adults -- their names printed in the newspapers, their cases heard in open court instead of shrouded in the secrecy of the juvenile justice system. Scare them straight. Make them and their friends think before they use other human beings as fodder for amusement.

The leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Emekuku Ward 1 & 2, Owerri North Local Government Area of Imo State has been drawn to the shocking and despicable publication on the front page through the page three of the 'Community Watch-Dog Newspaper' of Tuesday, July 29th-31st, 2014 with the caption, "MURDER OF U.S BASED PROMOTER: PROSECUTE SIR JUDE EJIOGU NOW" by a faceless group known as "NOEL: BRING THE KILLERS TO JUSTICE COALITION" claiming to have formally petitioned the Chairman of National Human Rights Commission on the matter.
Usually, we would not have bothered to join issues with the publishers of the dastardly report but owing to its magnitude, we hereby set the records straight while debunking the publication.
1. The death of Prince Noel Unegbu would have been a very painful one to any average Imolites who know what it means to lose a young promising Imo citizen.
2. From information available to us, Late Prince Noel Unegbu was living in Houston Texas, United States of America but DELIBERATELY came to Nigeria in preparation for his youth empowerment project known as "IMO GOT TALENT HUNT" season two billed for February 24th for (Orlu), 25th for (Owerri) and 26th for (Okigwe) zones respectively in the year 2014.
3. It is very painful and shocking that Sir Jude Ejiogu who was not in any business with "IMO GOT TALENT HUNT SHOW' powered by the deceased or contesting any issue with Late Prince Noel Unegbu could be said to have hand in the dastardly act.
4. With utmost respect and loyalty, we wish to state here that our only leader in Owerri zone, Sir Jude Ejiogu is not known for violence and could not have been linked with the painful exit of the young man whom every good Imolites should have teamed up to condemn in unison rather than casting aspersion on anyone.
5. It is significant to affirm here that anyone claiming that Sir Jude Ejiogu had a hand in the death of Late Prince Noel Unegbu is not only insinuating offensively but an allegation from the pit of hell which is wicked and attracts the wrath of God for politicizing the painful exit of a promising Imo son!
6. As Christians and party leaders, it is pertinent to condemn in strong term the idea of some individuals in government to use death of fellow human beings as instrument of political campaign against possible rivals with a view to scoring cheap political relevance.
7. If we may ask peddlers of this wicked report, how could the Chief of Staff, a role model would have directly or indirectly connived with enemies of progress to kill a child that was ever ready to upgrade the status of Imo youths? God forbid!
8. May we humbly refer to peddlers and publishers of this trash against the revered Imo Chief of State as the main culprits in this case since they claim to know his closeness with the deceased, all in a bid to smear his image. Police should intensify more investigation on the matter maybe, the romour mongers were monitoring Late Prince Noel Unegbu's where about while alive.
9. It is worthy of note and sensible to inform the said coalition that days after the murder of this young man, Imo State was awash with publications on national, local newspapers and the social media about the arrest of the alleged killers of Prince Unegbu.
10. Furiously also, we wish to ask these 'hired media assassins' whose stock in trade is to use the death of an Imo citizen to stain the image of the Chief of Staff lost interest in the ongoing investigation by security agents?
11. Is the sudden exit of the young man more emotive to them than the Chief of Staff who is a father?
12. Nevertheless, it is reasonable here to advice the said purported "NOEL: BRING THE KILLERS TO JUSTICE COALITION" and Publishers of the newspaper to instead of alleging maliciously and deliberately in order to malign the COS image to use every legal means to urge security agents to fast-track investigation in order to uncover more truth relating to the killing.
13. May we submit that as the matter is still undergoing thorough investigation, we shall consider it unpatriotic and unintelligent to continue to talk on the issue until security investigation is concluded.
In view of this, it is copiously clear that the said publication was targeted at smearing Sir Jude Ejiogu's glaring image by refusing to acknowledge his good works in making Imo Youths result oriented.
Let it be known that no amount of falsehood or negative media campaign will deter the Chief of Staff the role of empowering and adding value to Imolites residing both within and in the Diaspora through proper engagement and non-violent initiatives.
As leaders of our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Emekuku ward 1 & 2, we hereby warn sponsors of this heinous act against our son and leader, Sir Jude Ejiogu for selfish political reasons to desist forthwith or be exposed since their identities have been revealed.
Finally, we hereby appeal to the general public to disregard the misleading publication as it was a module meant to bring Sir Ejiogu's image to disrepute while we persuade the Chief of Staff to use every LEGAL MEANS to compel publishers of the newspaper to retract and apologize as the truth may come out from them at last.

Therapy using immune system cells preserves vision in mice implanted with rare eye cancer
Credit: UNC Lineberger
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.–A treatment that uses immune system T cells, combined with an immune-boosting drug packaged in an injectable gel, was found to preserve the vision of mice implanted with tissue from a human eye cancer known as retinoblastoma. The cancer is treatable in early stages but can still lead to the loss of vision in about 5% of cases.
The research findings from scientists at the University of North Carolina Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center were published is Nature Cancer on Oct. 12, 2020.
Retinoblastoma is primarily diagnosed in infants and young children. It is considered rare, with approximately 200-300 children diagnosed with the cancer each year in the U.S. Current treatments for retinoblastoma use cold, heat, chemotherapy, lasers or radiation but vision loss still occurs, so the UNC researchers wanted to search for methods that could preserve vision.
"Based on our mouse study and the existence of an active cell immunotherapy program at UNC Lineberger, along with infrastructure for generation of CAR-Ts for clinical use, we feel confident that our efforts could be translated into a phase I clinical study in people," said Zongchao Han, MD, PhD, an associate professor in the UNC School of Medicine and UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy and a UNC Lineberger member.
The researchers used an incremental process to determine the best method for treatment of retinoblastoma. First, the researchers turned to chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cell therapy, a type of immunotherapy where T cells that comprise the immune system are modified in the laboratory to express chimeric antigen receptors, CARs, that target surface proteins on cancer cells. In a lab test, they found that a molecule, GD2, is expressed in retinoblastoma but the possibility to target this molecule to safely eliminate the tumor in the eye was unknown.
Next, to test the safety and benefit of targeting GD2, the investigators injected the CAR-T that recognizes this molecule into the retina of mice implanted with retinoblastoma cancer cells and found the therapy delayed tumor development but did not eradicate the tumor. Then they combined the CAR-Ts with interleukin (IL)-15, a protein that can boost immune response, and found that 60% of mice were tumor-free for up to 70 days.
Finally, they injected a water-based gel containing the CAR-Ts and IL-15 into the retinas of the mice. The CAR-Ts and IL-15 retained an extended ability to attack the cancer cells, control tumor growth and prevent tumor recurrence. They corroborated the lack of tumor growth with several imaging exams of the retina.
This gel-encapsulated therapy is currently being tested in clinical trials in children with neuroblastoma, an embryonal tumor that can progress rapidly and has some of the same genetic characteristics of retinoblastoma.
"We are always looking to improve the lives of children at Lineberger," said Barbara Savoldo, MD, PHD, professor of pediatric Hematology/Oncology at UNC School of Medicine and UNC Lineberger member. "Therefore, we hope to look at the safety of gel injection in a clinical trial of retinoblastoma in children, and if that proves safe, we could move on to see if our methodology can reduce or eliminate these tumors."
In addition to Han and Savoldo, the paper's other authors are Kai Wang, PhD, Department of Ophthalmology, UNC School of Medicine; Yuhui Chen, PhD, UNC Lineberger; and Sarah Ahn, PhD, UNC Lineberger and Department of Microbiology and Immunology, UNC School of Medicine, who all contributed equally to the work; Min Zheng, Department of Ophthalmology, UNC School of Medicine; Elisa Landoni, UNC Lineberger; and Gianpietro Dotti, MD, UNC Lineberger and Department of Microbiology and Immunology, UNC School of Medicine.

'Midnight: The Coyote, Down in the Mouth' by Tim Seibles
As my regular readers have undoubtedly discerned, I have certain urban animal species on the brain. Rats, raccoons and coyotes, among others, roil the mental waters. In the throes of fascination, I call on science, art and poetry.
Urban Coyote with Rat by Atty Gell.
An earlier post quoted Stanley Kunitz's marvelous poem, Raccoon Journal. Today it's time for coyotes to get lyrical.
I recently came across this reading by Tim Seibles of his poem, Midnight: The Coyote, Down in the Mouth. It's a wonderful reading, best heard, I think, without the accompanying images. But since I couldn't find a purely audio version to share, here is the poem, illustrated and animated to within an inch of its life. You don't have to watch, only listen. And enjoy.
You may read the poem here in Seibles' book, Hammerlock, which you can buy here, or order from your local independent bookseller. Mine is BookCulture on West 112th Street.

A Tribute to Two Cats
Cats and humans may have been living together for as long as 10,000 years. In 2004, researchers found the remains of a cat and a human buried together in a 9,500 year-old gravesite in Cyprus.
By that timescale, the dozen years my family and our two cats lived together are microscopic, almost undetectable. But those twelve and a half years were, as it turned out, feline lifetimes. Our cats died this month, two weeks apart, and today I'm finding it hard to remember life before Pudding and Leia.
Born in an East Dallas warehouse in the relentless heat of a Texas summer, the kittens were taken in by a rescuer who cared for them, along with two other feral litters, until they were old enough to be adopted. We were the lucky ones who took them home.
To the uninitiated, the cats resembled each other,
Leia on the left, Pudding on right with half-moustache.
but they couldn't have been more different.
Pudding was a big lug of a cat, sweet-tempered and laid-back, the kind of guy you might find in the corner bar, buying a pitcher of beer for his buds.
Big lug.
All his life, Pudding adored my son, hustling to the door when he got home from school and hanging out in his room, like a pal.
Leia, on the other hand, was the runt. Until her last years, she spent an inordinate amount of time hiding in closets, avoiding contact with people. Except for me. Leia was crazy about me. Head over heels. Smitten. Gaga. She'd gaze at me as I worked with a slightly demented intensity, like an over-needy lover desperate for an opening.
I loved her dearly, but I avoided looking in her direction, since even inadvertent eye contact could unleash a feline litany of demands, reproaches and yearnings. One night, as my husband tried to read, my son filmed Leia and me.
The apartment has grown suddenly larger with the loss of these two creatures. Small in body, and large in spirit, they gave us joy. We miss them.
Rest in peace, Pudding and Leia.

Lives of City Cats: The Working and the Feral
Once upon a time, cats were common fixtures in NYC stores, greeting customers in the doorway of the fishmonger or lounging in a patch of sunlight among resoled boots in the display window of the shoe repair store. The corner deli, the candy store, and the Chinese laundry – Manhattan's equivalent to the butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker – each had a resident feline.
They weren't pets, these cats. They were working animals, who paid for their room and board by working nights in rodent control, and days in customer development, allowing people like me to scratch their ears.
Several cats still work my stretch of Broadway. Most impressive is the fine, fat beast attached to Samad's Gourmet between 111th and 112th Street. Friendly and self-assured, the cat loafs outside the store in fine weather, and has been seen trundling into neighboring shops, just to say hello. On a mild January day, it helped out in the sales department of the neighborhood vintage record seller.
Would you buy a used record from the cat?
But not all neighborhood cats are living the good life of Samad's cat.
Ten days ago, I encountered this black cat on the retaining wall of Riverside Park.
Maybe the cat is on the lam from a nearby apartment. Or maybe it's a member of Riverside Park's small feral cat colony, which shares an indoor space with the occasional homeless person.

Volunteers have trapped each animal, and taken it to a veterinarian where it is neutered or spayed before being returned to the park. By preventing the cats from breeding, the proponents of the Trap-Neuter-Return program hope the colony will eventually die out.

Meanwhile the volunteers quietly provide food and water,

and advocate for the protection of the cats.
A hodgepodge of baskets and boxes
I don't know how many cats are cared for in Riverside Park, although I have never seen more than three.
But surely, as the presence of the black cat on the wall indicates, there will always be a new recruit, whether an unwanted pet dumped in the park, or a runaway in search of greener pastures, finding its way to the easily accessible food and shelter.
Across the country, there is a dawning awareness that domestic cats, both feral and pet, are fierce and effective predators that can have a devastating affect on birds and other wildlife. A recent study cited by the American Bird Conservancy estimates that cats may be responsible for over half a billion bird deaths each year. Approximately half of that astonishing number is attributed to feral cats and the other half – that's 250,000 dead birds – to pet cats that are allowed outside. Peter Marra of the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute told the New York Times in 2011, "Cats are way up there in terms of threats to birds — they are a formidable force in driving out native species."
Don't get me wrong. I love cats.
Pudding (1999-2012), an indoor city cat, ponders what to read next.
But if cats are truly an invasive species causing potentially serious harm to the ecosystem, then free-roaming cats raise surprisingly complex and far-reaching questions, among them how to ethically and humanely manage feral cat colonies and even our own pet cats.
Feral cats are found all over New York City in parks, parking lots and alleys between buildings.
A small colony lives in Morningside Park. With its population of ground-nesting birds, its rough terrain and bushy undergrowth, Morningside is well-suited to the little feline predators.

while its sibling, or friend, keeps pale green watch on passing humans.

while a few blocks away, on a rare grassy patch, two kittens hone their predatory skills with a game of hunter-and-prey.
Readers, I welcome your thoughts on cats, both feral and pet.

Urban Raccoons in Winter
I hadn't seen the raccoons that live in the Riverside Park retaining wall for some time.
Nice view.
I believe their numbers were cut down during the great raccoon rabies epidemic of 2010. I once saw as many as six raccoons come out of this hole, like clowns from a clown car. But lately, I've seen only two.
Two waschbären, or wash bears, as the Germans call raccoons. (from my archives)
And for the past few weeks, I haven't seen any.
The raccoon den in February 2011 after a snowstorm.
Watching raccoons in winter is a bit trickier than in spring or summer. In wintry weather, raccoons may curl up in their dens for days at a stretch, sleeping away the cold. But in a bizarrely mild winter like the current one, the reason I haven't seen them is more likely due to the simple fact that I don't walk regularly in the park after dark.
Raccoons, even in New York City, are primarily nocturnal creatures, emerging as the sun sets to start their day. In summer, when light lingers well after nine pm, they are easy to spot on a leisurely evening dog walk.

But in February, night closes in on the city before dinner, let alone before the evening walk.
Sparkling New Jersey
And though I love the park at night, caution has been etched into my city soul by growing up and living in Manhattan throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s. I try to be reasonably cautious, limiting my night walks in the park which, in turn, limits my opportunities for raccoon sightings and other strange night visions.
A dog walks in the night park. (Its owner was not far behind.)
But after not seeing the raccoons for a while, I started to wonder: Are they healthy? Are they even there? So a couple of weeks ago, the dog and I went into the park shortly after dusk on several mild days to seek them. And there they were, looking as healthy as ever. (I've enhanced the photos, as most were too dark to see.)
One raccoon was already a little distance north on the wall,
Wall walker
while the other seemed to be backing out of the den.
Backing out the front door
It turned around and took in the view. After watching for a while longer, we left.
Who's watching whom?
But wait. It was only later when I looked at my photos that I realized, a la David Hemming in Antonioni's Blow-up, that there was a third pair of eyes, glowing in the darkness of the den.
Mystery glow.
Let's enhance that photo, and see who's there.
Aha. Revelation.
So it appears that at least three raccoons are living in the den this winter.
We'll have to wait and see what spring brings.

Invasion of the Mitten Crabs
"from the depths of the sea … A TIDAL WAVE OF TERROR!"
Attack of the Crab Monsters, 1957
Chinese playwright and recent Columbia MFA gradate Zhu Yi, also known as Zoe, recently alerted me to an unusual presence in the Hudson River: Chinese Mitten Crabs.
According to Zhu Yi, mitten crabs are a delicacy in China.

But here in the United States, the Department for Environmental Conservation calls them "our newest Hudson River invader." Zhu Yi plans to write a play using the mitten crab as a metaphor for our fear of invasion through immigration, which I will hope to see sometime soon.
Most exotic plants and animals, transported out of their native habitats, will not survive. But those that do survive may become invasive, which means they out-compete native species, reducing biodiversity, and changing the balance of local ecology. Often, there are no predators in the new environment to keep the population under control, and the species proliferates without the natural limits of its original habitat. Mitten crabs, which are causing serious environmental problems throughout Europe, are now being found in the Hudson River.
Named for their oddly furry claws, Chinese mitten crabs travel 7,000 miles from home to take up residence in North American waterways by stowing away in the ballast water of ships. Ballast water, it turns out, is a major source of the invasive species that are causing serious problems in our rivers, estuaries and lakes.

Ships take on water for stability when cargo loads are low. When they pull into a port and load up on cargo, they discharge water that may have come from halfway around the world. Ballast water, which may be fresh, brackish or salt, is home to untold numbers of plants and animals – plankton, seaweeds, algae, invertebrates, bacteria – that are swept up into the ship's hold, and later released in new environments.

Mitten crabs are fascinating creatures. They spend most of their lives in fresh water, where they burrow into river or stream banks, causing soil erosion and habitat loss. But they must travel each year back to the sea to mate. To do this, they walk. Yes, walk. Mitten crabs are "walking crabs," able to travel long distances – "up to several hundred miles," according to the DEC – over land by walking on the tips of their pointy claws. Londoners have described them coming up out of the Thames to walk the streets on their migration.
Still image from Attack of the Crab Monsters.
If you find or catch a Chinese mitten crab, the DEC has a few requests:
Do not release it back to the water
Keep it and freeze it (preserve in alcohol if you can't freeze it)
Note date and location caught (GPS coordinates preferred but pinpointed on a map is acceptable) and how you caught it
If possible, take a close-up photo. You may e-mail photo to SERCMittenCrab@si.edu for identification.
Don't eat it! Mitten crabs, like some fish, can accumulate large amounts of heavy metals from their environment – and, after all, who knows where this crab has been?
Just don't try telling that to the man and woman on the street in China, where a horrific new vending machine sells live packaged (probably farmed) crabs to subway commuters. They are kept cold enough that they are in a state of semi-hibernation, but still alive, sealed into tiny plastic containers.
Can you really wonder if the crabs have their revenge?

FINDING STEVE McQUEEN: Interview With Director Mark Steven Johnson
By christine on	 March 12, 2019 0 Comments
It's so nice to just shut your brain off and go somewhere else, and experience something really beautiful and magical. Off of your phone, off of your social media. I really hope it all comes back. Enjoying film together is a very communal part of our culture.
It isn't often that you find yourself sitting on a cloud of pure delight at the end of a heist film. Yes, I said heist film. In the case of FINDING STEVE MCQUEEN, you'll only find yourself anticipating the adventure, and that is reinvigorating for this genre.
Mark Steven Johnson
This is the outrageous but true story of a group of men from Youngstown, Ohio, who attempt to rob a bank of $30 million in illegal campaign contributions made to president Richard Nixon.
This movie is not about Steve McQueen, but rather the tricky way in which we can become other people, if only to dare beyond what we see within ourselves.
I got to talk with director, Mark Steven Johnson(Ghost Rider, Daredevil, Grumpy Old Men) about his refreshing and new take on a previously formulaic genre.
Carla Sanchez Taylor: I felt really good at the end of this movie. And it wasn't the way it wrapped up but more about the lens with which you told it. What was it about this story in particular that made you want to adapt it?
Mark Steven Johnson: I really didn't want to do a heist movie. There have been so many done before and in such great ways. I felt I had nothing new to say. But then I opened up to page 1, and I realized we were in a flashback. The heist had already happened. That was interesting to me because usually the drama and conflict in a heist movie come from an active state of events. Your main question as a viewer is, will they get away with it? But I found myself wondering other questions like: is she going to forgive him? Are they going to run away together? Can they survive all of this? I really liked that. Then I Googled the story and it struck me that it was all accurate, which seemed odd because I imagined I would've heard about it. I mean, a gang of guys from Ohio attempting to rob the president of the United States? It sounds insane. But there is a lot of humor in that.
I also love stories about identity, where people are trying to be something they're not. To me, that is the theme of the film. The more I looked into the story the more flabbergasted I was that no one had ever told it before. It seemed so timely. It felt right and so I decided to do a rewrite of the script.
Carla Sanchez Taylor: I really enjoyed the jumps in narrative. There were so many different aspects that kept me actively engaged. It was like putting a puzzle together. Did you conceive of it that way or was that done in the editing process?
Mark Steven Johnson: It was originally written in a linear fashion. But during the rewrite, we thought it would be more interesting to jump in and out of scenes.
It turned out to be a lot harder than we had anticipated. Because, when you get to editing, some scenes work and some scenes just don't.
The task was especially difficult because of the unique nature of the heist; the characters don't just break into a bank. They break into a bank three nights in a row. So all of the timelines and scenes had to be very distinct and punctuated. I think there are at least 5 timelines going on, which means you really have to pay attention.
Carla Sanchez Taylor: It's good to keep the audience thinking.
Mark Steven Johnson: Well, you can't be texting while you're watching (laughs).
Carla Sanchez Taylor:: That can be difficult, right? Given the amount of distractions all around us. In this way, your movie made me remember the influence film had on its audiences. Do you think this is still the case?
Mark Steven Johnson: I do think it's still the case. That being said, it is a different time. I remember we did a test screening and I saw a girl take out her phone and start texting. It was irritating because of all of the work put into this movie. Afterwards, I asked her if she hadn't enjoyed it. She said that she had liked it so much, she had to message her friend to tell her to go see it. So these are the times we live in. You can't easily put your phone down for 90 minutes to watch a movie. It's so nice to just shut your brain off and go somewhere else, and experience something really beautiful and magical. Off of your phone, off of your social media. I really hope it all comes back. Enjoying film together is a very communal part of our culture.
Carla Sanchez Taylor: Yes, it's a great unifier.So many components of this film seemed complicated to me, in the production aspect. But nothing was lost, including the tiny details.
The scenes were stunning – even the nostalgic way the sunlight hit, the vibrancy of the colors, the crispness of the sound. I guess it really made me wonder if you are a maniacally organized creative person. An oddity.
Mark Steven Johnson: I am a crazy organized person, but only in this part of my life. The rest is a disaster.
Carla Sanchez Taylor: (Laughs) There's hope for the rest of us!
Mark Steven Johnson: When I sit down and write a script, I immediately start writing character bios, just for my own reference. They are usually about five pages long. I'll document as much as I can about a character, all the way down to their most embarrassing moment. That's important so that by the time I write the script, they've become real people to me. It's the same when I direct. You've got to close your universe down or else, fuck, you won't even know where to start. There are so many choices. It's infinite. Once you've gotten to know your characters, it helps with everything from production design, to wardrobe, to scene.
Carla Sanchez Taylor: I imagine that being a director, you have to be pretty malleable because you rely on so many elements that are out of your control.
Mark Steven Johnson: It doesn't matter if your budget is a hundred million dollars or 5 ½ million, it always ends up with me and a couple of guys in my backyard and I'm in high heels, putting out a cigarette for an insert shot.
You can spend months on a script. You can talk about the importance of this one beautiful scene with two people talking under a tree. You decide the importance of the tree, the significance and symbolism. You decide just how you're going to shoot it and when. Then on the day of shoot, it's pouring rain. And the next question is, what are we going to do? We've got to make a decision now. So yes, adaptability is important. At the end, it's a miracle that it even works out because there are so many things that you're up against. But then it does, and that's what makes it all worthwhile.

The Nerf N-Strike Modulus Regulator is the brand new blaster for this line. Nerfers expect it to come out in the fall of 2017 with all kinds of other blasters. But as we have seen with other blasters it has been seen in some Canadian stores. The regulator is going to have a select fire system which will allow you to chose between three different modes of firing which are single fire, three round burst, and fully automatic. It will also have a ammo counter built in to the blaster. It will come with multiple tactical rails. It's attachments will include a mag holding stock, a barrel extension that can also be used as a scope, a barrel that is a carrying handle, and an extra barrel extension.
This is no other than another Raven. This blaster is the. Nerf N Strike Elite Ravenfire. This blaster while have a very nice paint job that is different from the other Ravens. This blaster is going to be part of the Elite XD 2.0 series. This blaster will be shipping with a 10 dart mag and with 25 Elite darts. This blaster has been leaked as a Kohls exclusive. It is expected to come out in late 2017 and the MSRP has not been released yet. I think that this will be cool for people that want a refreash to the original raven. I personally have never had a Raven so I would love to get this blaster when it comes out.
The Nerf Rival nemesis is the latest and greatest rival flagship blaster. The expected release date is fall of 2017 but in some Canadian stores it has been spotted. This blaster marks the first hopper fed nerf blaster for nerf. The nemesis is going to hold 100 rival balls and is supposed to shot 100 FPS. This blaster is going to be comparable with the nerf rival battery pack pack that also works in the Kahos. Many nerfers are very exited for this blaster. In my opinion I am going to have to buy this when it finally comes to the states.
This is the Nerf rival Hera. The Hera is going to be the introductory blaster to the Nerf rival Phantom Corps line. This blaster will be a semi auto magazine fed blaster. The Hera will ship with 12 HIR's and with a 12 round mag. Many people think that this will be a rival stryfe. Also this blaster will be compatible with the Rival rechargeable battery pack but it will still take C batteries. In the end this looks like this will be a great blaster to play with and use in Nerf wars. In my opinion this will be a good addition to the Nerf rival line.

With winter coming up in a few short weeks, your home is sure to become abundant with coats, boots, shovels, skis and more. Certain rooms in your home, such as your entryway, mudroom, closets and garage become places to store all of this winter gear and can become messy and crowded. To keep everything organized and in its proper place, here are a few helpful storage accessories and tips.
Place absorbent mats on the floor. It sounds obvious enough, but placing mats to trap the water near entryways is a must. Also place absorbent mats around the areas where the winter items are stored, since there will be a lot of foot traction in this area. This will help make your job of cleaning easier and prevent your home from getting too dirty from outside debris. If you isolate the mats to just one space in the home, that will become the destination for taking off winter boots and coats, instead of having to clean up mud and snow all over the house.
Open storage works best. Instead of cramming things into old cabinets or drawers, utilize open storage. Open cubbies, shelves and cabinets allow you to see all of the items you're storing and choose the necessary ones easily. More importantly, open storage allows for proper ventilation and air circulation for any items that have snow, rain or mud debris on them. This type of storage allows you to air dry your items while keeping everything at an arm's reach. For shoes, look for a shoe organizer to separate the boots from sneakers and invest in a boot dryer if possible to speed up the drying process.
Add hooks. Hooks are great for hanging items that need to dry, like wet coats and snowpants. Hanging things also saves space on the bottom of the rack or closet, which is great for storing shoes.
Invest in baskets and storage bins. These types of storage containers let you place similar items together. For example, you can put gloves in one container and scarves in another, or even assign one bin to each child or person for their winter items. Grouping items together keeps things organized and easy to find in a last-minute rush. If the baskets or bins are stackable, they can easily be stored away when winter is over with.
Utilize door storage. Over-the-door storage racks or shoe organizers are ideal for smaller items like gloves, hats and scarves. Just make sure the items are properly dried and clean before storing them to prevent mildew.
Add storage racks in the garage. Instead of leaving your winter items on the ground everywhere, invest in some hanging storage racks for your garage, mudroom or shed. There are a large variety of options available, including shovel racks and racks for skis, snowshoes and snowboards. Any items that can be stacked or laid flat would fit on long shelves as well. For heavier winter gear that won't fit inside the house, you can install coat racks in the garage or shed. Encouraging storage outside of the home (like in a garage or outdoor shed) frees up entryway space inside your home and reduces the clutter and mess.
