So let's get to it! I'm here to talk about how best to stay hydrated on your training runs and in races. But that's not all! I've found a way to carry water with me on the run and I want to share not only why I find it fantastic, but I want one of you to win my water vessel of choice! WOOHOO! A CONTEST!
Making sure that you don't become too dehydrated nor drink too much water in too short of a time period during the summer is important. Another important consideration for a runner is how the water is carried. If you're not running for a long period of time, a handheld water bottle is a popular choice and this is what I did when I first started running. As I ran more often, I found that carrying a water bottle (even one with a strap) was tiresome. My shoulder got sore from the additional strain brought on by carrying a bottle.
There are three main methods of carrying water: handheld, fuel belt, and pack, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. While I don't mind carrying a small bottle for a short run, for longer runs it causes soreness and tension in my shoulder that can't be relieved by switching hands because then the soreness moves to the other shoulder. While a fuel belt takes care of the problem of holding a bottle and having weight asymmetry, I never felt comfortable with having so much weight around my waist, not to mention the fuel belt is rather polarizing in the running community. A Camelbak or other water pack is a bit much for the non-ultrarunners among us.
I was getting a little frustrated with the choices that I saw out there because none of them quite suited my needs. Then two years ago I came across the Simple Hydration bottle, created by Brian Hock. He wanted a simple way to carry water hands-free and designed a sleek, light bottle that is easily tucked onto a running belt or waistband. Although I was dubious about spending $20 for a piece of plastic, this turned out to be one of the best running investments I have made. I absolutely adore my Simple Hydration bottle and use it on pretty much every run. Even when it's full, it doesn't weigh me down and I don't notice it. Sometimes I even forget that it's there and I panic that I accidentally left it somewhere. I can run hands-free and have water freely available whenever I need it.
It holds 13 oz, which is enough fluid for me up to a half marathon. I really love racing with this bottle because I never mastered the art of drinking out of a cup while running fast; I always waterboard myself. With Simple Hydration, I have water whenever I want it and I can skip all the crowded aid stations. Much to my happiness, I became a member of the 2015 Simple Hydration Run Team as a brand ambassador earlier this year.
Tucks perfectly into my Flip Belt!
As a member of the Simple Hydration Team, Brian sent all of us two extra bottles. I already owned two bottles that I had purchased earlier, so now I'm a proud owner of four bottles. This is more bottles than I really need, so I'm giving away one bottle to spread the Simple Hydration love.
To win this fantastically simple water bottle, all you have to do is enter the contest via Rafflecopter at this link. You earn entries by following us on social media, tweeting, and commenting. The contest starts at 7:00 a.m. EST on August 4th and ends on August 11th at 12:00 am EST. A winner will randomly be chosen by Rafflecopter when the contest ends.
How do you like to hydrate?
Disclosure: I am a member of the 2015 Simple Hydration Run Team and as a member, I received two free Simple Hydration bottles, visor, and a tech team shirt. All opinions are my own. I was not asked by Brian Hock to conduct a giveaway.
I've never heard of this bottle – definitely looks like it is worth a try!
I really like the Nathan speed draw handheld. It is comfortable, has a pocket for keys/gels and great water flow that makes it easy to drink at race pace.
For unsupported long runs on hot days, I like the Nathan hydration pack. Built for a woman's body, has a good stabilizer to minimize bouncing and sloshing and good pockets for stashing phone, keys, gels, etc (I ditch the extra bottle in favor of pocket space).
Interesting. I don't like to carry bottles in my hands, either. Worth a try!
I got a small camelback for Christmas. It's a lifesaver. It doesn't weigh me down or bounce and it carries all my nutrition needs.
As I am getting into the longer distances I find myself struggling with water needs. I hate carrying water. I hate the camel back. I have yet to try belts and what not but am curious this bottle at the base of your back does not bother you? I know I can be over sensitive and its annoying to me.
There are several guys on the Simple Hydration Run Team who run with the bottle tucked in their shorts.
I fill my Simple Hydration bottle halfway with Nuun or water, and then I freeze it on its side. That way I have a cold drink for these hot summers.
I also freeze my Simple Hydration bottle. Not only do we have a cool drink, but it's an nice ice pack (for a brief period of time).
I have a fuel belt that I am embarrassed to use plus it only carries 14 oz of water. I prefer to use my Nathan handheld which carries 22 oz and it has a pocket for fuel as well.
I drink alot before I leave on a long run.
I've never been a big fan of carrying water with me, but I'm currently pregnant and have found I need to these days. Generally, I just carry a bottle, but I'd love to find a better method.
I drink water before I go on a run and then a lot afterwards.

Kidding aside, here's what I want you to know about Van, both as a person and as a realtor. Van is (and always has been) relational, principled, witty, creative and extremely hard-working. Our family jokes that brother Van has the "never-sits-still" gene — a gene he puts to very good work for his clients.
How do those qualities translate when buying or selling a house with Van? Well, I experienced that firsthand when he helped my husband and me find our first home. He treated us with the same "Van Fletcher & Co." attentiveness he does all his clients. Van took the time to know us in that stage of our life (new town, new jobs, and all the hopes and doubts that first-time homebuyers have) by asking us the right questions.
Van's brand of realty, I learned, is one of a kind. It will require you to trust his team's many years of experience, good sense, wisdom, and instincts. They will tell you things that might require a bit more elbow grease than you're used to, or maybe a truth that's just downright hard to swallow in the moment. But there's abundant evidence that this approach yields very sweet fruit.
Over the years, I've observed Van use good humor and creative solutions to diffuse tense situations and an authentic negotiation style to broker artful deals.
I say that with a caution to my brother: Van, if you ever stop listening well to your clients or start getting too big for your britches, you know I'll give you a well-deserved smack over the head!

Dentist's brush with law may be wiped clean
By John Nickerson, Staff Writer
NORWALK -- A prominent city dentist accused of keying his neighbor's new BMW was granted a court diversionary program for first offenders Tuesday that could wipe away a charge of second-degree criminal mischief.
Neil Druks, 67, of 17 Nimrod Farm Road, Weston, appeared before Judge Burton Kaplan with defense attorney Jay Dulberg at state Superior Court in Norwalk and was given permission to participate in the accelerated rehabilitation program.
BMW owner Larry Barnett, 54, objected to Druks getting the program because he suspects Druks keyed his cars on seven previous occasions, beginning in 2003.
Barnett, a chiropractor who lives next to Druks in Weston, was so angry about the vandalism that in 2008 he began filming his car in its parking place when he went to work at his 111 East Ave. office.
On April 3 the video cam stakeout on his 2008 BMW X5 paid off.
Barnett, who showed the recording to The Advocate, said the April 3 footage shows Druks, who works at a nearby office building, walking to the rear door of the car and gouging the paint with an object in his hand.
Though Druks can clearly be seen walking up to the car, the camera is blocked from showing what he is doing with his hands while his body weaves to the right and left before walking away.
Barnett told Kaplan he gave Druks a second chance when he called Druks two years ago to ask if he had done anything to his car when it was keyed in February 2008. Druks denied involvement.
Barnett said the vandalism did not stop and Druks will probably break the law again and prove he is not the type of person who will benefit from the diversionary program.
Assistant State's Attorney Mary SanAngelo also objected to Druks getting the program, saying he wasn't caught until the eighth incident.
Kaplan, however, said that in view of Druks' age and clean record he would grant him the program, which will last 18 months.
If Druks breaks no law during that period, stays away from Barnett and his property and pays for $1,128 in damage to the vehicle, the charges will be erased.
Dulberg said Druks denied involvement in the incidents and said that accepting the accelerated rehabilitation program is not an admission of guilt but is an opportunity to keep a clean record.

"I Walk The Line" – The High Line That Is….
August 25, 2012 by pbenjay
And actually it was Murray who was walking along the High Line and snapping photos of just what you see as you stroll along. There are two schools of thought when it comes to the High Line; For years this piece of real estate lay fallow, weeds and wildflowers flourished in this vacant narrow strip of land. For sure there is a history of the High Line to be told: In 1847 the City allows street-level railroad tracks on the West Side. Between 1851 and 1921 there were so many deaths due to this train traffic that 10th Avenue was nicknamed Death Avenue. By 1929 after many years of public debate, the City and State of New York and the New York Central Railroad agree on an improvement project which includes the High Line and adds 32 acres of parkland to Riverside Drive and costs over 150 million 1930 dollars – equivalent to about 2 billion today. In 1934 the High Line opens to trains running from 34th Street to St. John's Terminal on Spring Street. By the 1950's the growth of interstate trucking leads to a decrease in railway hauling nationally and on the High Line. In the 1960's the southernmost section of the High Line is demolished. In 1980 the last train ran through the High Line carrying 3 carloads of frozen turkeys. In the mid-19080's a group of residents who owned land beneath the structure lobbied to have the High Line torn down. In 1999 The Friends of the High Line, a preservation group was formed. From that point on, they worked with various City and State commissions to have the High Line preserved and turned into a public use space. This was the first school of thought; that this unique piece of real estate should be open to the public, preserved to be enjoyed by the masses. It took years to explore all the possibilities, secure permission from various regulatory commissions, to hold design competitions, to get approvals for every aspect of design and construction and on and on through miles and miles of red tape until finally in 2009 a section of park was opened from Gansevoort Street to West 20th. That was then and now in 2012, the High Line has become a major tourist attraction. And that brings us to the other school of thought about what has progress wrought upon us? A few days ago in the New York Times there was an Op-Ed article entitled Disney on the Hudson. Here are the first two paragraphs although from the title itself, I'm sure you know where this is going! "WHEN the first segment of the High Line, the now-famous park built atop an old elevated railway on the West Side of Manhattan, opened in 2009, I experienced a moment of excitement. I had often wondered what it would be like to climb that graffiti-marked trestle with its wild urban meadow. Of course, I'd seen the architectural renderings and knew not to expect a wilderness. Still, the idea was enticing: a public park above the hubbub, a contemplative space where nature softens the city's abrasiveness. Today it's difficult to remember that initial feeling. The High Line has become a tourist-clogged catwalk and a catalyst for some of the most rapid gentrification in the city's history."Sadly, that's how I feel about most of what was at one time, a unique place or event in our great City. I really don't like enormous crowds anywhere and long lines are distressing, not to mention the weariness of dodging slow-moving gawkers. Oh well now I sound like a cranky curmudgeon New Yorker! Anyway here is the link to the entire piece: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/22/opinion/in-the-shadows And now that brings us a couple of days ago when Murray took these photos:

Often links with feelings of uncertainty or difficulty involving another person or group of people. You may be trying to clarify action to take in the dream, or sort out your feelings about an issue. The lawyer may also represent inner certainty or confidence, an authority figure, maybe even a desirable lover.

Q: How do I get the content from an old message/command with my discord bot? I am currently trying to edit an embed with a command. The edited embed has a clear structure. It is supposed to be an evaluation of the suggestion. For this I need the author and his suggestion from the previous command. Is it possible to take the content of the old embed and transfer it to the edited embed if you have two commands? In addition, it would be good to still count and insert the reactions at the message.
Here are my working approaches, except for the missing parts:
    #@commands.cooldown(1, 100, BucketType.user)
    @commands.command(usage="<text>")
    async def suggest(self, ctx, *, text: str = None):
        """This is the command for suggestions."""
        if text is None:
            await ctx.send("**You need to insert a text.**")
            return self.suggest.reset_cooldown(ctx)

        channel1 = self.bot.get_channel(812284187427864616)
        if channel1 == ctx.channel:

            channel = self.bot.get_channel(812283430707920906)
                e = discord.Embed(color=discord.Colour.green())
                e.description = f "**__submitter:__**\n {ctx.author}"
                e.add_field(name="__Suggestion:__", value=f"{text}")
                e.set_thumbnail(url=ctx.message.author.avatar_url)
                e.timestamp = datetime.utcnow()
                e.set_footer(text=f "UID: {ctx.author.id}")
                feedback = await channel.send(embed=e)
                await feedback.add_reaction("✅")
                await feedback.add_reaction("❌")
                await ctx.message.add_reaction("✅")

The approve command which actually edits the old embed and should insert "Suggestion", "Submitter" and count the reactions.
    @commands.command()
    async def approve(self, ctx, msg_id: int = None, channel: discord.TextChannel = None):
        if not msg_id:
            channel = self.bot.get_channel(812283430707920906) # the message's channel
            msg_id = 998877665544332211 # the message's id
        elif not channel:
            channel = ctx.channel
        msg = await channel.fetch_message(msg_id)
        embed = discord.Embed()
        embed.title = "Suggestion accepted"
        embed.description = "*Here are all the important information*"
        embed.add_field(name="Results", value="✅: MISSING COUNT / ❌: MISSING COUNT")
        embed.add_field(name="Suggestion", value=f"MISSING SUGGESTION TEXT")
        embed.add_field(name="Submitter:", value=f"MISSING SUBMITTER")
        embed.add_field(name="Approved by:", value=f"{ctx.author.mention}")
        await msg.edit(embed=embed)
        await msg.clear_reactions()

To count the reactions I would use something like:
total_count = 0
for r in message.reactions:
    total_count += r.count

EDIT:
This is the embed right now with showing Suggestion two times in different ways.
    @commands.command()
    async def approve(self, ctx, channel: discord.TextChannel, msgID: int):
        try:
            msg = await channel.fetch_message(msgID)
            embed = msg.embeds[0]
            submitter = embed.description[embed.description.find('\n'):]
            suggestion = embed.fields[0].value

            embed.title = "Suggestion accepted"
            embed.description = "*Here are all the important information*"
            embed.add_field(name="Results", value="✅: Test/ ❌: Test", inline=False)
            embed.add_field(name="Suggestion", value=f"{suggestion}", inline=False)
            embed.add_field(name="Submitter", value=f"{submitter}", inline=False)
            embed.add_field(name="Approved by", value=f"{ctx.author.mention}", inline=False)
            await msg.edit(embed=embed, reference=msgID)
            await msg.clear_reactions()
        except:
            pass

A: msg = await channel.fetch_message(msg_id)
You can use the fetched message to get details about it.
try:
   msg = await channel.fetch_message(msg_id)
   embed = msg.embeds[0]
   submitter = embed.description[embed.description.find('/n'):] # get submitter name
   suggestion = embed.fields[0].value
   # other stuff
except:
   pass
   # possible exceptions message not found, list index out of range(if wrong msg id with no embeds passed as arg)

Another Black Man Killed in Suspicious Circumstances– Family says police report and evidence at the crime scene not matching
'Slow justice'
Staff Reporter 4 hours ago
— Family of man killed by police displeased with pace of investigation
— says police report and evidence at the crime scene not matching
By Lisa Hamilton
Minister of Home Affairs, Robeson Benn, meets with the family of Headley following a protest staged at his Office (Ministry of Home Affairs photo)
The wife of the late Peter Headley, a 45-year-old businessman who was shot and killed by police in May, is concerned about the pace of the ongoing investigation into her husband's death and the systems within the Guyana Police Force (GPF) that led to it.
Headley was shot and killed on May 15, 2021, after police ranks — following up with investigations into an armed robbery committed at Herstelling on May 11 — intercepted a motor vehicle he was in, along with another man, at Nandy Park, East Bank Demerara (EBD).
According to police reports, Headley and the other occupant were arrested but while the other occupant was placed in the police vehicle with the other ranks, Headley was placed in the front passenger seat of the civilian vehicle.
The vehicle was driven by a police rank with an armed police rank in the back seat. Police stated that on their way to the Providence Police Station, Headley reached under the seat of the vehicle and pulled out what appeared to be a firearm causing the armed rank to discharge a round that struck him to his body. He succumbed while receiving medical treatment at the Diamond Diagnostic Centre.
IT DOESN'T ADD UP
The late Peter Headley
Though this was the account of the police, according to Headley's family, there is much more to what took place. Wife of Headley, Patricia Campbell, has disclosed that, at the time of the interception, Headley was carrying over $2 million in cash — the profit from selling drums along with his father-in-law.
However, Campbell said when she inquired about the money along with Headley's belongings, she was told by police that no such cash was found, only a few $1,000 bills. Added to this, based on photos seen by the family, there are questions about there being no bullet hole and very limited blood in the seat Headley was in if he was indeed shot after attempting to retrieve a gun.
Furthermore, Campbell questions the absence of shattered glass or blood on the floor of the car; why Headley would reach for a gun while within a car outnumbered by armed policemen; why, if he did have a gun within the car, would it be under the passenger's seat and not the driver's seat; and why was sand reportedly found on Headley's body.
The family has also heard unverified reports about Headly throwing the said gun outside of the car and the police retrieving the same the next day at the area it was thrown. They therefore believe that Headley was shot while he was out of the car and that the police did so to profit from the cash he had on him.
"Think of it. If I shot you from behind, what happened to the window screen and the dashboard having splatters of blood? No bullet hole in the car seat…no blood dripping on the mat, the mat is clean…we even looked at another picture of his body and his hand has a set of sand on it," Campbell said.
"They said [to us] they searched the car thoroughly and they found nothing, how come he's reaching for a gun? Why it couldn't have been he was bending down to scratch his foot or something? Why you didn't handcuff him and put him in a police vehicle?"
PUT YOURSELF IN OUR SHOES
The family of Headley hosts a candlelight vigil in his memory
The man's wife said the police have admitted to her that what occurred is contrary to protocol. Campbell said she was also told that the week prior police officers in different regions were retrained on the protocols for stops and arrests.
As of June 2, 2021, Campbell said that the family and public have received no press release from the Ministry of Home Affairs or the Guyana Police Force (GPF) disclosing information about the police officers involved. What the family has been told is that investigations are continuing at the level of the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) and the Police Complaints Authority.
"We don't know their names, we don't know their age, we don't have any pictures of them, no press release stating, at least, these are the officers involved in the murder of Peter Headley," she said. "The update from the Minister is that he's still waiting on the report from the OPR and also the Police Complaints Authority. The two heads of the divisions are working together on the matter — that is Mr. Kissoon from OPR and Mr. Ramlall from the Police Complaints Authority."
Campbell said that it is discouraging that the only office that has called her is the OPR, while all other instances of communication with authorities were made from her end. This is even as Campbell learned about the death of her husband from a friend who saw it on social media. She said though Headley had with him a utility bill and his driver's license that could have led authorities to his home, his relatives were not notified of his death via this means.
Asked whether she is pleased with the pace of the investigation, Campbell said: "No, I'm not. I'm very, very much disappointed and I highlighted that to the Minister. I told him if it was the other way around, if Mr. Headley had shot the police, his name and face [would have been released], he would have already gone to court and everything would have been going fast, fast. But this now, they shot him, they murder him…when police are involved in crime, it needs to be dealt with speedily more than the civilians because they know the laws and they broke them."
Regarding the other occupant of the vehicle, Campbell said that she knows that the individual gave a statement but she cannot confirm his full name and does not know where to find him.
THEY KILLED OUR BREADWINNER
The car Headley was reportedly shot in
The woman said Headley, age 45 of Dowding Street, Kitty, Georgetown, was the main breadwinner for his family. Though she also works, she said that his business collaboration with her father would go a long way financially. Also impacted are Headley's children. Campbell said that their 18-year-old son now has to live with hearing his father been labelled as a "thief".
"My son has to live with that. His friends now, I don't know who wants to withdraw or stay with him or don't want to talk with him anymore because parents will have their own view. I can't stop them. They published that in the media," Campbell said. The teen turned 18 five days after the death of his father.
On the contrary to what has been said in some parts of the media, Campbell described Headley as a loving and caring person. She said that he has given money to several persons from different communities to assist them in starting up their own small businesses as a means out of poverty.
The woman told the Village Voice News that it is only fair that those responsible for Headley's death face consequences. She relayed that she has heard unconfirmed rumours that her husband was shot by a 19-year-old officer. If the rumours are true, she is concerned that the GPF would allow a new recruit to brandish a weapon without the necessary training that would have prevented him from being "trigger-happy".
Apart from this, Campbell also wants the Officer in charge of the said patrol to be held liable for failing to properly lead the patrol. She recommended improved training for members of the Force and background checks on individuals before they are accepted into the GPF.
She said: "They should be held accountable and their matter should be coming up instantly. They need to be tried and jailed for doing these things and let other officers see the repercussions for doing these things, that's the only way it's going to stop."
Headley's family has consulted a lawyer to assist with the matter moving forward.

I love photographing in educational settings. There's an energy in the air fueled by the curiosity and exploration of ideas, the theories and experiments, the discovery and pursuit of one's passions. I've recently added a new gallery featuring some of my higher education photography to the website, including work done for the Stanford School of Engineering. Here's a small selection to preview. I hope you enjoy!


The beginning of Advent is only three weeks away but many of us are unfamiliar with the season and its relevance to our faith.
Advent marks the beginning of the liturgical year. It is a season in which we wait in hope and anticipation for the coming of Christ into our world. Here are two excellent videos I have found that help to explain in a few minutes the meaning of the season. The first is a short punchy introduction, the second a more traditional explanation. Enjoy and share them with your friends – and don't forget to sign up on the Facebook page Coming Home: Uncovering Our Roots in the Advent Story and share the page with your friends. We are already posting about coming home to help focus our thoughts away from the Christmas rush and frenzy as we head towards the holidays. Will continue to post daily not just the posts from this blog but other prayers, songs and liturgies as well.

Mr. Jason Backs
VP Operations
CPS Trailers
Highway 77, P.O. Drawer K
Oran, MO 63771
Dear Mr. Backs:
This responds to your letter requesting an interpretation of whether the bottom dump trailer that your company manufactures with a large push block at the rear would be excluded from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA's) rear impact protection (underride guard) regulations. As explained below, your trailer is not excluded but, assuming you are attaching an underride guard to the push block in the location that you drew on your diagram, your vehicle may already comply with our regulations.
Your letter attached a diagram of your bottom dump trailer. Attached to the rear and extending 25 inches behind the rear of the trailer is a push block, used by bulldozers to push the trailer out of soft ground at construction sites. Viewed from above, the push block shaped like a trapezoid with its long side attached to the trailer. It tapers to a width of 28 inches at its rear, which is 28 inches off the ground. Eleven inches forward of its rear a guard-shaped structure, which you refer to as the horizontal member of the push block, is attached to the bottom of the push block. The bottom of the guard-shaped structure is 19 3/4 inches above the ground. Based on a conversation with David Coleman of NHTSA's Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance,(1) you believe that the trailer is excluded from our regulations because it meets the definitions of two classes of excluded vehicles: the low chassis vehicle and the special purpose vehicle.
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 224, Rear impact protection, requires most trailers and semitrailers weighing over 10,000 pounds to be fitted at the rear with a rear impact (underride) guard meeting the requirements of Standard No. 223, Rear impact guards (49 CFR 571.223 and 571.224, published on January 24, 1996 at 61 FR 2004). However, certain kinds of vehicles are excluded. The only excluded categories that are relevant for the purposes of this letter are low chassis vehicles and special purpose vehicles.
Low chassis vehicles are defined in S4 of Standard No. 224 as "a trailer or semitrailer having a chassis that extends behind the rearmost point of the rearmost tires and a lower rear surface that meets the configuration requirements of S5.1.1 through 5.1.3 of this section." In other words, the chassis itself must satisfy the configuration requirements applicable to a guard when the vehicle is outfitted for transit. The only part of your vehicle that meets these configuration requirements is the guard-shaped structure attached to the underside of the push block(2), so the question becomes whether this is considered to be part of the "chassis" of the vehicles. Chassis is defined in S4 as "the load supporting frame structure of a motor vehicle." There are two elements to this definition that must be satisfied: "load supporting" and "frame structure."
To be considered "load supporting," the frame structure has to support load when the trailer is performing its function. For most trailers that carry things, this means that the structure would have to contribute to providing underlying support for the cargo load when the trailer is in transit.
To be considered part of the frame structure, a structural member must be either an integral part of the overall frame structure, or be connected with other frame structural members in a way that is necessary to the structural integrity of the trailer. One factor the agency considers in deciding whether a structural member is part of the frame is its size and strength. Frame structural components often are the major structures defining the shape of the trailer. Although frame structure is not limited to the largest frame components (i.e., the frame rails for most trailers), generally frame components are substantial and have strength similar to other frame components. However, the agency also looks at the purpose and function of the structural member in supporting the trailer and its load.
Applying these principles to the horizontal member of your push block, we find that it is not part of the chassis. Although the push block and presumably also the guard-like structure are strongly attached to the chassis, they do not contribute to supporting cargo load. The push block itself is not part of the frame structure of the trailer, it is an attachment. Although you imply that the guard-like structure attached to the bottom of the push block is part of the push block, we consider it to be another attachment (to the push block). It does not define the outline of the trailer, but projects downward from an attachment to the rear of the chassis. Therefore, it is not part of the chassis, and the bottom dump trailer is not a low chassis vehicle.
We turn now to the question of whether the bottom dump trailer is excluded as a special purpose vehicle. A special purpose vehicle is defined in S4 of FMVSS No. 224 as "a trailer or semitrailer having work-performing equipment that, while the vehicle is in transit, resides in or moves through the area that could be occupied by the horizontal member of the rear underride guard, as defined by S5.1.1 through S5.1.3."(3) Again, the guard-like structure on the underside of the push block is the only part of your trailer that, while the vehicle is in transit, resides in the area that could be occupied be the rear underride guard. Therefore, it would have to be considered work-performing equipment for the trailer to be excluded.
There is no definition in the standard for "work-performing equipment." In determining the meaning of regulatory language, the first place the agency looks is the plain meaning of the words. In the context which is relevant to this safety standard, "work" is defined as "the transfer of energy from one physical system to another; especially, the transfer of energy to a body by the application of force . . ." "Perform" is defined as "to begin and carry through to completion; do." American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, 1971. Taken together, NHTSA interprets the words "work-performing" to mean that the equipment must actively perform its function, and that the function must involve exerting force or moving something else. The guard-like structure does not perform work in this sense. Its function is unclear. Even the push block does not perform work. Its function is to merely transmit the force of the bulldozer blade to the chassis of the trailer. Therefore, the guard like structure is not work-performing equipment, and the bottom dump trailer does not meet the definition of a special purpose vehicle. An underride guard would have to be provided on this vehicle.
However, your bottom dump trailer may already comply with the rule. You made several correct observations in your letter regarding the determination of the rear and side extremities. The rear extremity is defined in S4 of Standard No. 224 as " the rearmost point on the vehicle . . ." (not the chassis). Therefore, it coincides with the rearmost point on the push block. The side extremity is defined in S4 as "the outermost point on the vehicle's side that is located . . . between a transverse vertical plane tangent to the rear extremity of the vehicle and a transverse vertical plane located 305 mm forward of that plane." Since your push block tapers toward the rear, the side extremity coincides with the outer edges of the push block in a transverse plane one foot forward of the rear extremity. The bottom of the guard-like device extends to the side extremities and the 21 inch ground clearance meets the vertical height requirements of S5.1.2. Assuming the face of the horizontal member of the guard-like structure is at least 100 mm high, as required by S5.1 of Standard No. 223, the guard-like structure would meet all the configuration requirements of an underride guard. If it can pass the strength and energy absorption requirements as well, the guard like structure itself could be labeled and certified as a guard under Standard No. 223.
If you have difficulty meeting these requirements, the agency would consider a petition for temporary exemption from Standard No. 224. Under one of our regulations (49 CFR Part 555), vehicle manufacturers may apply for a temporary exemption from the Federal motor vehicle safety standards. Under Sec. 555.6(a), a manufacturer whose yearly production is not more than 10,000 units may ask for an exemption of up to three years on the basis that compliance would cause it substantial economic hardship and that it has attempted in good faith to comply with the standard from which it has asked to be excused. We have enclosed a copy of Part 555 for your information. We have also enclosed a copy of our regulations relating to the protection of confidential business information. Most of the trailer manufacturers submitting petitions for temporary exemption have requested that their financial information remain confidential.
Please note Part 555 requires the agency to publish a notice in the Federal Register seeking public comment on each exemption petition before a decision can be made on such a request, and then publish a second notice either granting or denying the petition. This process normally takes three to four months from the date of submittal.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact Paul Atelsek of my staff at this address or by telephone at (202) 366-2992.

1. We note that the Chief Counsel's Office is the only office in the agency that can issue interpretations of our regulations.
2. The push block itself is too high to meet the maximum height requirement of S5.1.2.
3. Note that this definition, as quoted, reflects an amendment made in response to petitions for reconsideration of the final rule. An unnecessary reference to pipe equipment containing hazardous materials was eliminated. See 63 F.R. 3654 (January 26, 1998).

Speech by Mr. Essan Secundar, President of Religions for Peace Belgium, at the Webinar Hosted by CCRP in Oct. 202
Posted on November 3, 2020 November 3, 2020 by acrp-peace
Mr.Essan Secundar
President of Religions for Peace Belgium
Respected Chair of Development and Environment committee of ACRP,
Respected President of CCRP, board members of CCRP, respected representatives, and Friends.
Greetings from Religions for peace Belgium.
Thank you very much to give me the opportunity to say a few words during this Webinar, which is very important to share our experiences of how interfaith unity playing a crucial role, controlling the pandemic of Covid-19.
Religions for Peace Belgium is working regularly with different religious responsible to know how they are organizing their religious activities during the pandemic and also informing their followers, providing vital information and other measures to protect themselves and their families by following guidance received from the health department. The efforts of prevention continue.
CCRP has played a very important role in solidarity to fight this common enemy COVID-19. It was an interfaith unity that you demonstrated. Many countries benefited from your generosity and help among was Belgium.
In a time where Europe was desperately looking for face masks to protect the medical staffs risking their lives to protect the lives of others, CCRP expressed its solidarity by sending to Belgium peoples, as donation 20,000 face masks which was distributed to Medical center, Old houses, handicap schools, orphanage, federal police force, elderly people, homeless and to different religious organizations to distribute to their members at risk. I would like also to figure out is that the board of Religions for Peace Belgium played an important role to identify a list of priorities for this distribution, it was done under teamwork.
All the religions teach solidarity to others but during this pandemic, every religion could put into practice this teaching to humanity.
Belgium as a country will always remember your generosity and support in this difficult time of COVID-19 health crisis which has killed more than 8000 peoples in Belgium with more than 55,000 infected at that time.
Where ever I donated these face masks in Belgium, I did it in the name of CCRP and Religions for Peace Belgium.
China as a country you provided assistance to over 130 countries and international organizations to fight the coronavirus pandemic.
Once again on behalf of the board of Religions for Peace Belgium and the Belgium peoples, we extend our gratitude to the board of CCRPVen.PagbalhaGelegNamgyai,President CCRP Mtr.Deng, Executive Vice President and Mr.Lacan, Secretary-General of CCRP and Miss Chen and the people of China. We in Belgium will never forget the people of China's gesture of solidarity, love, and humanity towards the people of Belgium during this thread of COVID-19.
We are together with love and unity.

Celebrating five years of success at Palmetto College
Posted on: May 22, 2019; Updated on: May 22, 2019
By Susan Elkins
There is transformative power in a college education. In South Carolina, bachelor's degree holders earn, on average, $15,000 a year more than those with only an associate degree. Moreover, a person with a bachelor's degree will earn, on average, $1.2 million more during their working career. At a time when some question the value of a college degree, it is more evident than ever that education is a universally recognized distinction that enables upward mobility and expands opportunity.
USC Palmetto College provides accessible, affordable and flexible online bachelor's degree completion programs at USC Aiken, USC Beaufort, USC Columbia and USC Upstate. Because earning an associate degree is often the first step to obtaining the bachelor's degree, we offer two-year degrees from Regional Palmetto Colleges, USC Lancaster, USC Salkehatchie, USC Sumter and USC Union, along with Extended University, USC Fort Jackson and Shaw Air Force Base programs. Other opportunities are available to K-12 students before they reach traditional college age, including dual credit and early college opportunities for high school students and the University of Possibilities for middle school-aged children.
Just a few years after its launch, USC Palmetto College is flourishing. Between the Fall 2013 and Fall 2018 semesters, we served nearly 6,000 students each year, reaching every county in the state. This includes an associate degree program enrollment of nearly 5,000 per year at the campuses. Of the over 1,300 online courses offered since its inception, more than 33,000 seats have been filled and Palmetto College Online has awarded over 1,600 bachelor's degrees as of Spring 2019.
In our first five years, Palmetto College Online has made a difference in the lives of alumni who have graduated with bachelor's degrees in one of 14 disciplines. Here are five alumni stories from our first five years — five successful alumni with USC bachelor's degrees and new jobs.
Ryan West has served in the military for 20 years, and he was trained to tackle any challenging situation. A conversation with his then ten-year-old son presented him with a different kind of challenge. His son declared that he would earn his own bachelor's degree before Ryan could do so. He accepted the challenge, enrolling in USC Palmetto College. He completed a B.A. in Organizational Leadership, with honors, from USC Columbia in 2016. Now, he's planning for a career post-military service.
Nicole Ramsey completed a B.A. in Elementary Education full-time through USC Columbia while working 50-plus hours a week managing retail. She is also raising a young son. Completing her degree in 2018 allowed her to achieve her dream of becoming a teacher, and she was recently named "Rookie Teacher of the Year" at the Moncks Corner, S.C. school where she teaches fifth grade.
As a state trooper, Dirk Bron Jr. didn't work the kind of schedule convenient for earning a bachelor's degree. His work sometimes required long nights and early mornings in different locations throughout the state — not the ideal when planning semester-long academic commitments. Prior to enrolling in online classes through Palmetto College Online, Dirk attended two Regional Palmetto Colleges: USC Salkehatchie and USC Union, and earned an associate degree from the latter. Completing a B.S. in Criminal Justice from USC Upstate through Palmetto College made a career transition possible. In July 2017, he was appointed an associate chief magistrate in Laurens County, S.C. — an appointment that wouldn't be possible without a four-year degree.
Chan Samreth is a registered nurse in Spartanburg who needed a bachelor's degree to advance in her profession, while juggling a busy work schedule and family responsibilities. Completing USC Upstate's RN-BSN Program through Palmetto College has made all the difference in the world.
Andrew Verma worked in finance for 12 years when he reached a point from which he would not have been able to advance much further. After completing an associate degree at his local technical college, he entered Palmetto College and earned a B.S. in Business Administration in 2015. Today, he manages a team that encompasses more than 700 within a global financial institution.
Their stories are emblematic of the promise and potential of a college education earned through Palmetto College and its online partners at the University of South Carolina's Columbia Campus, USC Aiken, USC Beaufort and USC Upstate.

Avoid the snow, Part III
10/02/07 through 10/28/07
The Florida Mountains at sunrise. View from campsite at Rockhound State Park, Deming, New Mexico
Here it is, our third adventure away from the snow and cold of the winter seasons previously endured in the Colorado Rockies. We leave Westcliffe on Tuesday, October 2nd, to start the slow journey into the desert southwest. This trip, we will be joined by Bill and Stella, JoEllen's parents, for the drive through New Mexico staying at the state parks along the way. Also new this trip, David purchased a trailer for his ATV and we are towing it behind the 5th wheeler to enjoy in the desert areas of Quartzsite, Arizona this winter.
Departing view of the Sangre de Christo Mountains.
After stopping for a new air conditioner for the 5th wheeler (hail damage) in Pueblo, Colorado, we travel to Las Vegas, New Mexico spending a night at Storrie Lake State Park. We continue south on I-25 to Elephant Butte State Park for 6 nights, then south to Percha Dam State Park for another 5 nights. During our stay here, we travel up Emery Pass and visit the towns of Hillsboro and Kingston enjoying the beautiful landscape.
Bill and Stella at the summit of Emery Pass.
View at the summit, Kingston located at lower right.
A quick stop at Leasburg Dam State Park outside of Las Cruces is our next stop. Campsites are only available for one night, so we visit our favorite used bookstore, COAS My Bookstore, browsing the many books and celebrate JoEllen's 49th birthday at our number one Mexican Restaurant, La Posta de Mesilla. (great food and terrific margaritas!)
Deming, New Mexico
We travel west now to Deming, New Mexico, staying at Rockhound State Park. This is one of our favorite stops on previous MisAdventures as there are gorgeous views, nice hiking, and awesome sunsets to be viewed from our camp, located at the base of the Little Florida Mountains with the rugged north side of the Florida Mountains across the valley. We are camped here for 2 weeks. Bill and Stella lived just down the road in the 70's at Columbus, so this is kind of like a homecoming.
The first known inhabitants of this area were the Mimbres Indians. They lived and farmed along the Mimbres River. The Mimbres Indians are best remembered today for their beautiful pottery. There are many fine examples of their work at the Deming Luna Mimbres Museum.
The Museum was originally the National Guard Armory. The museum's unique story began early in the century when military troops slept in the unfinished building as recruitment proceeded for U.S. defense of the U.S./Mexico border. It was completed two months after the infamous Pancho Villa Raid on March 9, 1916, at Columbus. It later served both as a community center and USO activity center for military personnel stationed in the area. Today, the Museum has a huge collection of exhibits, including quilts dating back to 1847, Native American artifacts, arts, military artifacts and exhibits, over 1200 historic liquor decanters, an exhibit containing over 2500 bells, and a doll room.
It was around 1800 when settlers began arriving in southwest NM. In its early years the area had a bad reputation. It is said that outlaws rounded up in Arizona were given a one way ticket to here. Mid century, the Butterfield Trail Stage had a stop nearby. Present day Interstate 10 across New Mexico and Interstate 8 west of Tucson, Arizona somewhat follow the route of the old stageline.
In late 1881, the Southern Pacific RR, building toward the west, reached this point and a tent and shanty city soon followed. It was named Deming after Mary Deming Crocker, the wife of a Southern Pacific RR executive. Six months later the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe RR lines arrived in town and Deming became an important community in the early history of southwest NM. Settlers flocked in, buildings were erected, stores and businesses were established and through the years Deming continued to grow.
Following WW I Deming, like much of the nation, saw its' economy decline. Both of the banks in town closed their doors. Recovery was slow. WW II brought new growth to the area. An Army Air Force Base for training bombardiers was established in Deming. More than 5,000 men were stationed at the base. The Deming National Guard was called into service and sent to the Philipines. Several of these brave men lost their lives in the Bataan death march. Others remained prisoners of war until 1945. Deming recently opened a new public school which was named Bataan to honor those National Guardsmen.
Deming, county seat of Luna County, has continued to grow through the years since WW II. It is currently home to approximately 14,000 people. The annual Deming Duck Races, held in late August, is an event we have yet to see.
Rockhound State Park
Rockhound State Park lies in the Little Florida (Floor-EE-dah) Mountains southeast of Deming. It was established in 1966 as the first park in the United States that allowed collecting of rocks and minerals for personal use. Each visitor is allowed to collect as much as 15 lb of rocks and minerals from the 1,100-acre park. Rockhound State Park actually consists of two separate units, the main park and Spring Canyon Recreation Area. Spring Canyon lies in the northern Florida Mountains, south of the main park, and is open for day use only from Easter through November.
The main park provides excellent views of the surrounding mountain desert. Basin and range topography is easily seen in the distance. On a clear day the smokestacks of the Hurley smelter can be seen to the northwest. The Cobre Mountains form the far northern horizon behind the smokestacks. The Burro Mountains lie to the west-northwest; the Victorio Mountains lie to the west-southwest. The Florida Mountains lie directly to the south of the main state park. The Cedar Mountains lie to the south-southwest. The dark mountain north of Deming is called Black Mountain.
The Florida and Little Florida Mountains are typical of the mountain desert throughout southern New Mexico and Arizona. Elevations range from 4,400 ft along the foothills, where the state park is located, to 7,448 ft at Florida Peak in the Florida Mountains. Water is scarce and limited to wells and hidden springs, but despite the dry, seemingly inhospitable environment, life abounds. The area is home to many lizards and snakes, deer, antelope, coyotes, and small mammals such as prairie dogs, rabbits, badgers, and many birds including 2 species of Quail. Mountain lion and desert bighorn sheep may be seen at the higher elevations of the Florida Mountains. Ibex, wild goats originally shipped from Iran, can be seen here as well. A variety of plants thrive in this environment, including yucca, prickly pear cactus, barrel cactus, ocotillo, creosote bush, mesquite, and hackberry. Juniper and scrub oak are common in the canyons.
Gray perlite, thundereggs, geodes, jasper, onyx, agate, crystalline rhyolite, Apache tears (obsidian), and quartz crystals are among the more common rocks and minerals found in the park. Agate is present in a wide range of colors and is one of the minerals that many visitors collect at Rockhound State Park. Some thundereggs and geodes found at Rockhound contain multicolored agate in addition to well-formed quartz crystals.
Columbus, New Mexico
David and JoEllen spend a day sightseeing and visiting Columbus, New Mexico and Polamas, Mexico. Columbus is the site of the only invasion of the American homeland. In 1916, Pancho Villa and his band of Mexican Army misfits raided the town and army base located here, killing civilians and U.S. soldiers. At Pancho Villa State Park, there is a wonderful mueseum filled with artifacts and replicas of equipment and vehicles used by the army in the early 20th century.
This is also the site of the first American Air Corps. In 1916 America lagged far behind Europe in developing aircraft suitable for military operations. The eight IN-3 Curtiss biplanes or "Jennies", shipped to Columbus by train and assembled on site consituted the nation's air corps. Due to their fragile nature, the harsh desert conditions, altitude problems, and untested pilots, all of these Jennies were shortly damaged or destroyed.
They were quickly replaced by a variety of new aircraft. The new JN-4 Jenny proved more reliable and was used during the invasion of Mexico. Over 6000 were eventually built, some surviving into the 1930's as the classic barnstorming biplane. The American aircorps developed rapidly under fire. Between March 15 and August 15, 1916, approximately one-hundred men, the first entirely motorized unit in the U.S. Army, survived remarkable hardship and danger to fly or support 540 missions chasing Pancho Villa in Mexico.

It's Feb 19th and this is the best live set I've seen so far this year!
Chilling in its beauty and loud with delicate character - if you claim to love music, this is a live act you need to see for yourself!
What a lovely show it was!


The beautiful unspoilt Galapagos Islands, 620 miles west of Ecuador's mainland in the Pacific Ocean, is a tropical archipelago home to incredible wildlife. Charles Darwin based many a theory on the endemic wildlife he encountered during his time here, including marine iguanas, Galapagos penguins, flightless cormorants and the famous giant tortoises. The Galapagos Islands can be visited at any time although there are variations between the two main seasons. The warmest weather is found during the tropical season between December and May; when temperatures are higher but daily rain is to be expected. If you love to dive in amazing places, the best time to visit Galapagos is from June to November. During this season the weather is a little colder but you can enjoy the best from Galapagos' famous marine reserve.
On Española, the adult marine iguanas become brightly coloured.
As the tropical season begins, green sea turtles arrive to the beaches to lay their eggs.
Land iguanas start breeding on Isabela.
Greater flamingos flock to Floreana to begin nesting.
Bahama pintail ducks start their mating season.
Marine iguanas begin nesting on Santa Cruz.
Marine iguanas can be found nesting on Fernandina.
Penguins swimming alongside tropical fish can be seen by the western islands.
Lots of new life begins after the tropical rainy season, with hatching season starting for the green sea turtle and land iguana eggs.
Large numbers of albatrosses land on Espanol Island.
Albatrosses start to lay their huge eggs.
Sea turtles continue to breed around Gardner Bay, Punta Comorant and Puerto Egas.
Start of the prime whale shark season at Wolf and Darwin.
Migratory birds start their journey north to warmer climes.
Some groups of humpback whales and other cetaceans that migrate up to equatorial latitudes along the coast of Ecuador reach the Galapagos.
One of the best months to observe whales and dolphins, especially off the western coast of Isabela.
A good time to observe the four stages of blue-footed boobies nesting - eggs, chicks, juveniles and sub-adults.
Lava lizards start their mating rituals, including "push-ups".
Whale and dolphin sightings are more frequent.
Galapagos sea lions begin to give birth so sightings of young are possible.
Migrant shore birds start arriving for their stay until March.
Galapagos penguins are at their most active on Bartolome.
Sea birds are very active at their nesting sites.
The Galapagos fur sea lions begin mating.
Blue-footed boobies raise their chicks on Española and Isabela.
The seas are calm and the south-east trade winds have decreased in strength.
Generally good weather due to a seasonal transition.
Sea lions harem-gather on the eastern islands.
Green sea turtles begin their mating display.

"Memory in the Late Platonic Tradition"
Papachristou Ioannis
Research ProposalConferenceResearch ResultsShort BioPublications
Summary of the Research Proposal
The concept of memory may well be categorized as one of the most fundamental of human intellectual life; we all think we understand when we talk about 'memory' and we all think we are very familiar with the ways memory influences our lives. However, the concept of memory seems to have such a wide range of meanings that it is difficult to define; we remember how something is done, we remember facts about the world, we remember personal experiences or feelings. Philosophers, cognitive scientists, psychologists, neuroscientists and geneticists, all have tried, from their particular points of view, to identify memory with certain faculties and higher operations of the mind or to reduce it to the physical processes involved. They have thus treated memory as a minimal mechanism linking perception and thought, as a basic tool in the formation of universal concepts, or as an essential constituent in accounts of the self, consciousness and personal identity.
The proposed project focuses on the later and less studied history of the concept of memory in antiquity, and aims at revealing the different views about memory put forward by the late Platonists, for instance Iamblichus, Syrianus, Proclus, Hermeias, Damascius, Asclepius, and Olympriodorus. More specifically, the close reading of the relevant writings of these late authors intends to examine and elucidate three related aspects of the ancient concept of memory:
(i) The ontological aspect: Memory as a faculty of the soul; that is to say, what the position of memory is among the other faculties of the soul. Some the issues raised are the relation between imagination and memory and the ontological status of the objects of memory.
(ii) The epistemological aspect: Memory as part of a cognitive process; that is to say, how far memory contributes to the acquisition of knowledge. Some of the issues raised are the relation between memory and recollection, the relation between memory and experience, and the role of memory in the formation of universal concepts.
(iii) The ethical aspect: Memory as part of the human psychology: that is to say, what the role of memory is in relation to pleasure and other states that affect ethical actions.

Research Project: "The Concept of Memory in Late Platonism"
Researcher: Dr. Ioannis Papachristou
The research project «The Concept of Memory in Late Platonism» was funded by the Research Centre for the Humanities (RCH) for the year 2017, with the support of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.
The proposed project focuses on the later and less studied history of the concept of memory in antiquity, and aims at revealing the different views about memory put forward by the late Platonists, for instance Iamblichus, Syrianus, Proclus, Hermeias, Damascius, Asclepius, and Olympiodorus. More specifically, the monograph focuses on memory, oblivion and recollection. The questions found in their texts open a dynamic field for additional statements. In summary, we can mention the following issues that are studied in the monograph: the position of memory in the Platonic ontological system, the division of memory, memory and knowledge, memory and truth, oblivion as a necessary condition for recollection, objects of memory and recollection, the role of memory regarding the self-knowledge of the soul, memory and epistrophe (technical term of Platonism), memory and discursive reasoning as parts of the cognitive process. All these questions make up the mosaic of Platonic discussions on memory and recollection in late antiquity.
The results of the Research Project "The Concept of Memory in Late Platonism" highlight the following elements on the issue of memory in the last phase of Platonic philosophy in antiquity.
Memory becomes more important in the intellectual course of Platonic philosophy. While Plato has laid the foundations for developing a theory of memory, we cannot claim to have done the same for memory. In Plato, we cannot speak of a theory of memory, because beyond a definition of memory – which certainly did not reflect the whole range of the concept – there was no attempt to establish a theory. Late Platonists place memory in the epistemological and ontological system as a substrate governing the intelligible world. They are not just discussing memory in relation to the sensible world, but they consider memory as a necessary condition of episteme and knowledge of the intelligible realm; memory is not treated, as Plato and Aristotle suggest, as a passive storage but as a critical cognitive faculty.
For the first time, memory is established in accordance with the ontological levels that late Platonism accepts and it is linked to the truth. Late Platonists introduce the constrained notion of oblivion to overstate, on the one hand, the importance of memory and truth, and to clarify, on the other hand, that without oblivion there can be no recollection. The way we conceive of the sensible world is such because of oblivion (important here is the notion of 'double ignorance' introduced by late Platonism) and recollection is the mechanism that will bring us back to memory, to knowledge.
Plato's concept of recollection was later transformed into a theory of self-knowledge of the soul. The soul in an attempt to regain its essence, after separation from the body, remembers the intelligible forms and the intelligible beauty. Soul returns to the intelligible nature from which it originates. Recollection in the sensible world is a means of learning, a kind of second knowledge of a thing that has previously gone into oblivion. When the soul acquires true knowledge again, i.e. when soul possesses memories, it regains self-knowledge and is brought into the intelligible realm to unite with the intellect from which it emerged and finally contemplate the Good.
Ioannis Papachristou studied at the Department of Philosophy of the University of Patras and obtained his MPhil from the Department of History and Philosophy of Science of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. He was awarded Dr. Philosophiae by Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. The main field of his research is ancient philosophy, especially Platonism and Aristotelianism of Late Antiquity (epistemology, physics and metaphysics). His doctoral dissertation titled "Philoponus on Place. Redefining Place in Late Antiquity" was part of the Topoi Excellence Cluster 264 (Berlin) Research Program. During his PhD thesis he was a Visiting Student Research Collaborator at Princeton University. He has been a Visiting Researcher at Humboldt University in Berlin, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Paris IV-Sorbonne (Labex RESMED, Center Leon Robin), at the Department of Philosophy of the University of Geneva and at the Research Centre for the Humanities in Athens. He received fellowships from the State Scholarships Foundation of Greece, the Topoi Excellence Cluster 264, the Fernand Braudel-IFER Foundation and the Research Centre for the Humanities (Athens- Stavros Niarchos Foundation). He was taught Greek paleography in the Historical and Paleographical Archive (Athens) and he successfully completed the seminar on Greek paleography "Griechische Paläographie, Handschriftenkunde und Editionswissenschaft at the "Zentrum Grundlagenforschung Alte Welt" of the Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften.

Entrust Datacard Recognizes and Supports Ottawa's Women in Tech as Part of International Women's Day
OTTAWA – (March 03, 2020) – During the lead up to International Women's Day on March 8, Entrust Datacard will promote female leadership and empowerment in the Ottawa tech community. Marisia Campbell, VP and Associate General Counsel, will join a panel at Elevate International's International Women's Day on Parliament conference, and Anahid Khajooei, Software Development Manager, will take part in Kanata North Business Association's International Women's Week mentorship program that kicks off on March 5th.
International Women's Day on Parliament is an annual leadership conference at the Sir John A. MacDonald Building in Ottawa, welcoming over 500 participants from government, industry, and academia. On March 6 at 11:15 a.m., Marisia Campbell will participate in a panel titled "Scaling the Tech C-Suite: Empowering Women Leaders to Transform Our Tech Industry & Economy" with female tech executives from MMH Blockchain Group, Nokia, Capital Angel Network and more.
"Research shows that Canada's economy could achieve $150 billion in incremental GDP by 2026 by prioritizing gender parity," said Sonya Shorey, panel host and Vice President of Strategy, Marketing and Communications, Invest Ottawa and Bayview Yards. "Our nation must attract and retain more women in high productivity sectors such as tech to capitalize on this economic opportunity. Moreover, it is imperative to increase the number of women in C-suite leadership roles. This panel will explore the action required to make progress towards these goals, and create the sustainable corporate culture, policy and opportunity that drives long-term impact."
"Entrust Datacard is committed to driving change to bring equality and diversity to leadership. We are proud to be celebrating International Women's Day globally with a week of internal and external activities," said Campbell. "I am thrilled to start a constructive dialogue with fellow women leaders in technology around this year's panel theme, Elevate Women – Lead Equality."
Additionally, Anahid Khajooei will honour International Women's Week by participating in the Kanata North Business Association's mentorship program, March 5-13, which pairs local professional women with female students aged 16-21 to discuss the professionals' journeys and provide academic and career advice.
"Female mentorship is not only instrumental to the growth and future of women in tech, but to the growth and future of the greater Ottawa tech community," said Khajooei. "I'm looking forward to sharing my experiences with the students and supporting their journeys to becoming the next generation of tech leaders."
