Halloween Origins: Samhain and the Cailleach
The origins of Halloween date back to an ancient Celtic festival known as Samhain (pronounced sow-in) which celebrated the harvest and the arrival of the Cailleach. For the Celts who lived some 2,000 years ago, November 1st was their New Year. It was a time when the early farmers met together, bonfires were lit and animals were sacrificed. Samhain was about the changing seasons and the preparing for the dormancy and rebirth of nature as summer turned to winter and the Cailleach replaced Brìde as Goddess over the long, dark winter months.
The Celtic Festival of Samhain
The Celts believed that Samhain marked the end of summer and the harvest. It was the beginning of the long cold winter, a time when many humans died. They believed that on the eve before the New Year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. This was a time when the ghosts of the dead returned to the Earth. This was seen as a mixed blessing. Malevolent spirits could cause trouble and destroy crops. On the other hand, the presence of otherworldly beings made it easier for the Druids to make predictions about the future.
In time Christianity spread across Europe and the old Gods were replaced. In an attempt to make Christianity more palatable, the early Christian church had a policy of deliberately replacing dates in the old pagan calendar with new Christian Holy Days. The indigenous Celtic people of the British Isles were thus able to keep a foot in both camps. In time the old beliefs turned into the myths which were passed down through the generations to the present time.
So who was the Cailleach and what role does she play?
Who is the Cailleach?
In the folk tales of Scotland and Ireland, there is a figure known as the Cailleach. She is portrayed as a supernatural hag goddess, one of the Mother Goddesses. The Cailleach serves multiple roles and has been given a variety of names including the Queen of Winter and Lady of the Beasts. She may also be known as Cailich, Carlin, the Cailleach Bheara(ch) or Bheur(ach). It was originally thought that the idea of the Cailleach was carried from Ireland by the Gaelic speaking people who emigrated and colonised the west coast of Scotland and build the Kingdom known as Dalriada. However, this has recently been brought into question by folklorists such as Katherine Briggs and Stuart McHardy who have pointed out that more stories exist of the Cailleach in Scotland than in Ireland. The stories about the Cailleach are not found just amongst the Gaelic speakers of the world.
On the east of Scotland, where many people are descended from the Picts and where the Scots language developed in parallel to Gaelic, she is known as Carlin, who is sometimes known as the Queen of Witches. Here she serves the role of being the Corn Maiden or corn dolly. In the North East of Scotland she is known amongst the fisher folk as 'Gentle Annie', bringer of the winter storms and gales.
Her name in Gaelic means the hooded or veiled one and after Christianity arrived in Scotland nuns became known as Cailleach dubh. The word cailleach can also be used to refer to an old woman or widow. It is also used in the following words:
cailleach-oidhche: owl (oidhche means night)
cailleach feasa: wise woman or fortune teller
cailleach-phiseogach: a sorceress
In Scots Gaelic the Cailleach in its plural form is cailleachan: the Storm Hags who personify the destructive powers of the natural world.
The Cailleach's Physical Appearance
In appearance, she was believed to have a dark blue face, dull complexion with teeth as red as rust. She had a single eye on her forehead, which…" was keen and sharp as ice and as swift as the mackerel of the ocean." Her hair was long and white. Her clothing was grey except for a dun-coloured shawl which she wore tightly wrapped around her shoulders. She is often portrayed as being a giant and in one legend, the waters of the Sound of Mull only came up to her knees.
What Roles does the Cailleach have?
The Cailleach was a goddess who, as a personification of the seasons controlled the weather and the winter between Samhain until Beltane (May 1st). During the winter months, she herded deer, resisted springtime and froze the soil with her staff. She was also considered to be the embodiment of a corn or harvest spirit.
In Scotland, the Cailleach is credited with creating many of the country's Lochs and Mountains along with eight other hags who are her servants. One of these servants was Nessa, who is said to have created Loch Ness. As the Cailleach strode across the land, stones accidentally slipped from her creel or wicker basket to form some of Scotland's hills and mountains. In other tales she was said to have built the mountains on purpose, to serve as stepping stones.
As a spirit of winter, and in keeping with her animosity towards mortals, the Cailleach had a reputation for helping deer escape huntsmen. For the early Celts, venison would have been a welcome addition to their fairly limited diet over the winter months.
The Cailleach and the Myths of Scotland
According to legend, the Cailleach was said to have lived on the following mountains: Ben Nevis, Ben Wyvis, Ben Breac, Ben Cruachan, the Paps of Jura and Schiehallion. In Deeside, there is a burn or stream known as Allt-nan-Cailleach on the mountain Lochnagar and its nearby neighbour is a hill known as Caisteal na Caillich. Then there is Beinn na Caillich in Knoydart and a similarly named hill in the Red Cuillins of Skye.
Her role in bringing on winter includes a tale of her riding out from Ben Nevis with eight other hags to hammer the frost into the ground. The return of the Corryvreckan whirlpool between Jura and Scarba each year is attributed to the Cailleach washing her plaid in the water of the sea. Before the washing, it is said that the roar of a coming tempest is heard on the coast for 20 miles, for a period of three days until the cauldron boils or the whirlpool appears. She then lays her plaid over the mountains to dry. Her plaid is now white from being washed and this is used to explain the appearance of snow in the winter.
Legend has it, that the Cailleach was tired from a long day herding deer. On top of Ben Cruachan she fell asleep and a well she was tending, overflowed spilling down the hills and flooding the glens below, forming first a river and then a loch which today is known as Loch Awe.
A Shrine in Glen Lyon
There is a Glen Cailleach which joins Glen Lyon in Perthshire. In the glen runs a stream Alt nan Cailleach. Over the centuries a pagan tradition has been preserved. There is a small Sheiling in the Glen, Tigh nan Cailleach or Tigh nam Bodach, which houses a series of carved stones. Apparently, the stones represent the Cailleach, her husband the Bodach and their children. Traditionally, the local folk would walk up the glen to take the Cailleach and her stone family out of their house on Beltane and at Samhain, they were returned indoors for winter. According to local lore, the Cailleach and her family were once given shelter in the glen by the inhabitants. In gratitude for their help, she left the stones with the promise that as long as they were cared for, she would ensure the glen would continue to be fertile and prosperous.
The Cailleach and Bride
In partnership with the Goddess Bride, the Cailleach is seen as a seasonal deity or spirit. Where Bride was ruler over the summer months, the Cailleach was said to rule unequivocally throughout the winter months. However, as the dreary dark months of winter passed, her subjects would rebel against her harsh rule. As the Cailleach found her power slipping away, she grew enraged and caused storms throughout January and February in a futile attempt to stall the waning of her power and the transition into spring. This stormy period is known as A'Chailleach.
In some interpretations, Brìde and the Chailleach are two faces of the same goddess and that as the spring approaches, the Chailleach drinks from the Well of Youth, whereby she is transformed into the youthful, beautiful Brìde. However, most of the stories in Scotland, consider them to be two separate beings at odds with one another. Here, the Cailleach is turned into stone over the summer months.

Authorities say the Katunayake airport will be closed for eight hours – from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. – daily, owing to maintenance work on the runway.
Deputy Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation requests those travelling overseas to arrive at the airport five hours prior to their scheduled departure time.
Deputy Minister Ashok Abeysinghe said that four Sri Lankan Airlines flights will be operated per week from the Mattala airport during this period.
Meanwhile, flights scheduled to depart from the Katunayake airport to Beijing and Shanghai at 7:25 a.m. and 7:35 a.m. today January 06, were transferred to the Mattala airport to avoid delays.
Owing to renovations at the BIA, vehicles travelling along the Katunayake expressway to the Katunayake airport are required to travel to Negombo instead.
Police said that vehicles travelling from Minuwangoda to Colombo are required to travel from Ekala to Ja-Ela.
While, vehicles travelling from Minuwangoda are required to turn left at the Govinna junction and travel through the Malgas junction, Seeduwa and Averiyawatta to Colombo.
A special traffic plan announced owing to the BIA runway renovation.

According to the DFFRNTWRLD® life principals, there exists three forms of travel, physical, mental, and spiritual. Each of these types can be associated with a certain harmonic, in other words, physical = 72000; mental = 108000 and spiritual = 144000. However, when dealing with the physical aspect, then all the 3 harmonics must be used, but as far as projecting through time is concerned, then only the mental or the spiritual harmonics are taken into account.
So basically the reason for writing this report, is to show people how to make use of all 3 harmonics., (ie for the purpose of accomplishing time travel). It should also be added, that these devices cannot be used for destructive purposes. If any attempts are made in this direction, (especially after constructing one of these units) nothing will happen. Therefore one's actions must be in accordance with the creator's will, and if they're not, then, you better be careful!

Q: Mocking single methods in Go In Go, how can I mock an interface without having to implement every method? Let's say I have a Car interface and a Corolla struct that implements that interface:
type Car interface {
    changeTire()
    startEngine()
    ....
    refuel()
}

type Corolla struct {
    ...
}

func (c Corolla) changeTire() {...}

func (c Corolla) startEngine() {...}

func (c Corolla) refuel() {...}

Let's say I also have a Garage struct that depends on Car:
type Garage struct {
    MyCar Car
}

func (g Garage) PrepareCarToDrive() {
    g.MyCar.changeTire()
    g.MyCar.refuel()
    g.MyCar.startEngine()
}

And I want to test Garage, so I create a MockCar that implements Car
type MockCar struct {
    ...
}

func (c MockCar) changeTire() {...}

func (c MockCar) startEngine() {...}

func (c MockCar) refuel() {...}

Now I have tests that test  PrepareCarToDrive and I use the MockCar:
func TestGarage_PrepareCarToDrive_DoesSomething(t *testing.T) {
    mockCar := MockCar{}
    garageUnderTest := Garage{}
    garageUnderTest.MyCar = mockCar

    // some other setup

    // when Garage calls mockCar.changeTire(), should do X
    ...
}

func TestGarage_PrepareCarToDrive_DoesSomethingElse(t *testing.T) {
    mockCar := MockCar{}
    garageUnderTest := Garage{}
    garageUnderTest.MyCar = mockCar

    // some other setup
    // when Garage calls mockCar.changeTire(), should do Y
    ...
}

My question is, how can I have mockCar do different things each test? I know that I can create a different mock implementation of Car for each test. But this will get out of hand really quickly as I add more methods to Car.
I'm coming from a Java background so I'm looking for something like Mockito that will let me mock just the methods I need for each test.
What is the best way to do this in Go? Or am I missing something more fundamental?

A: If you embed the interface type itself in your mock struct, you can then only implement the methods you need. For example:
type MockCar struct {
    Car
    ...
}

func (c MockCar) changeTire() {...}

Even though your struct only implements changeTire explicitly, it still satisfies the interface because the Car field provides the rest. This works as long as you don't try to call any of the unimplemented methods (which will cause a panic because Car is nil)

A: The easiest method is to use some base implementation as an embed for your test structure, and only override the method you're testing.  Example using your types:
type MockCar struct {
    Corolla // embedded, so the method implementations of Corolla get promoted
}

// overrides the Corolla implementation
func (c MockCar) changeTire() {
    // test stuff
}

// refuel() and startEngine(), since they are not overridden, use Corolla's implementation

https://play.golang.org/p/q3_L1jf4hk

An alternative, if you need a different implementation per test, is to use a mock with function fields:
type MockCar struct {
    changeTireFunc func()
    startEngineFunc func()
    ....
    refuelFunc func()
}

func (c MockCar) changeTire() {
    if c.changeTireFunc != nil {
        c.changeTireFunc()
    }
}

func (c MockCar) startEngine() {
    if c.startEngineFunc != nil {
        c.startEngineFunc()
    }
}

func (c MockCar) refuel() {
    if c.refuelFunc != nil {
        c.refuelFunc()
    }
}

// test code

func TestGarage_PrepareCarToDrive_DoesSomething(t *testing.T) {
    // let's say we require refuel(), but the default implementation is fine
    // changeTire(), however, requires a mocked testing implementation
    // and we don't need startEngine() at all
    mockCar := MockCar{
        changeTireFunc: func() {
            // test functionality
        },
        refuelFunc: Corolla.refuel,
    }
    garageUnderTest := Garage{}
    garageUnderTest.MyCar = mockCar

    // some other setup

    // when Garage calls mockCar.changeTire(), should do X
    ...
}

https://play.golang.org/p/lf7ny-lUCS
This style is a bit less useful when you're trying to use another type's methods as the default implementation, but can be very useful if you have some stand-alone functions that can be used as your default or test implementation, or if a trivial return is acceptable for functions you haven't specifically mocked (like the behavior of the mocked startEngine() in the example above, which does nothing at all when called because the startEngineFunc field is nil).
You can also, if you wish, bake the default implementation (like a call to (Corolla{}).startEngine()) into the mock method if the relevant function field is nil.  This allows you the best of both worlds, with a default non-trivial implementation and the ability to hotswap out implementations at will on the mock just by changing the relevant function field.

AAO-HNSF 2012: Challenging Vocal Fold Paralysis Cases
by Thomas R. Collins • October 1, 2012
Dr. Simpson said that injection laryngoplasty in clinic is the preferred technique in almost all cases, but that patients with significant medical co-morbidities may be better served by undergoing injection under local anesthesia in the operating room or in an endoscopy suite. That way, blood pressure, EKG and oximetry can be monitored during the procedure, which is more important in these patients because of significant fluctuation in these parameters during the procedure. He said his preferred method when performing injection laryngoplasty while the patient is awake is peroral but added, "I think everybody has their pet way of doing these." Dr. Johns added that while the peroral approach gives more control, many patients don't tolerate it well and, "in my hands," he said, percutaneous tends to be better tolerated.

In another case, a 56-year-old man presented with sudden hoarseness that had come on seven months prior, but he hadn't sought care because he was caring for his wife, who had breast cancer. He had no other complaints except for mild solid food dysphagia at times. There was no clear trauma or event that might have brought on his symptoms.
On video, Dr. Johns noted left vocal fold paresis and said that during phonation there was reduced left false vocal fold squeeze. He said there also appeared to be a volume deficit on the left side.
Dr. Simpson said he takes his reviews of these kinds of cases very slowly. "The residents know I'll torment them on this. I really want the exam perfectly straight—I think it's easier to judge asymmetries when you have it pretty symmetrically on the screen," he said. "I look at these for a while. I look in slow motion. I really put a lot of time into looking at these exams before I try to make a call."
The panel's consensus was that there had been some kind of neuropathic injury. But they agreed they didn't have much to go on. "We don't really understand the etiology," Dr. Blumin said. Dr. Simpson added, "When you talk about things that haven't changed in the last ten years, I don't think we have any more information to figure out what's causing this."
Dr. Johns said he would do nothing in terms of work-up. He said he used to routinely order CT scans in these kinds of cases—patients with vocal fold paresis who still have a mobile vocal fold. But researchers at Emory reviewed the results of about 150 CT scans in such cases and found zero abnormalities.

Cancer Data Science Pulse
Dr. George Komatsoulis, CBIIT Deputy Director, Leaving the NCI
Leadership Updates
To the Cancer Informatics Community,
As you may know, Dr. George Komatsoulis, Deputy Director of the NCI Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology (CBIIT), will be leaving the NCI on May 2, 2014 to join the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the National Library of Medicine, where he will be focusing on Big Data and Precision Medicine. This is a great opportunity for the NCBI to benefit from George experience in putting together the NCI Cloud Computing strategy.
George has been a longtime member of the NCI, and during his tenure at the NCI has worked closely with the community, the NCI leadership, the NCI Board of Scientific Advisors and was instrumental in the creation and launch of the NCI National Cancer Informatics Program (NCIP). George was critical to the refocusing the NCI biomedical informatics program. On a more personal note, George has eased my transition into the NCI. I have benefitted immensely from his guidance, integrity, professionalism, dedication, and experience. It has been a pleasure working beside George for the last six months and I will miss his presence and unique perspective and sense of humor.
As we open a national search to seek a new deputy director for the NCI Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology, it is my pleasure to announce that Dr. Juli Klemm has accepted by request to serve as the acting deputy director. Many of you may be well acquainted with Juli, who has worked with cancer informatics community as part of the NCI since 2007. As part of her role as the deputy director, she will be helping solidify our community outreach and cancer informatics facilitation plans. Prior to joining the NCI, she received her Ph.D. in Biology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). She was also a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University.
I hope you will join me in extending congratulations to George on his new position at NCBI and welcoming Juli to her new role at the NCI.

Great structure, superior biceps, what's your motivation to look harder and more ripped than ever?
Are you on the cusp of winning a title or are you trying to move from last place to 7th place? What I mean is, you look incredible and often (it seems to me) winning a show comes down to more than the package you bring to the stage. What motivates athletes to achieve? I guess that's my question and may have nothing to do with helping you reach your goal.
curt = filthy rotten thread hijacker!
He can definitely get you there.
Thank you for the complients! I want to get to the next level specially for myself...I know I got it..and it would be great.
I´m stuck in second place ofr some years now..even when i compete in bodyfitness and now in woman physique. it´s hard for me when I see girls competing for the very first time and look a lot harder than me..not with the same size or proportions..but harder. I want that to. Can´t be impossible for me.
Right now the competition I am preparing for is Road to Mr. Universe (it´s na international event this year in Portugal...and I wanna look my best ever. Love the physique of the former Ms Universe, Maria Kuzmina, and the actual pro wabba´s champ Daria Diossi. To girls with about the same height has me and with lovely bodies, struture and overall looks.
Seems that in the weeks before the show..something is missing...to achieve the look.
Could you post some current photos so we can see where you're at as well as height and bodyweight?
I'm a little shocked at your choice of peds for an amateur women's physique contest. Maintaining a feminine look is important for this division and tren has 5 times the androgenic effects of Test. As long as you are 100% comfortable with potentially getting all possible sides -because those are serious chemicals to play around with as a woman.
Carb timing could be cleaned up. No need for a banana with your first meal, sub for a salad or fats and put it in pre or post workout (definitely get some carbs in post workout -you can pull this out as you get closer, but at 12-14 weeks out, I would keep carbs in after workout to assist w/ protein uptake into the muscle).
I agree w/ SunnyDay, your cardio seems a bit high, especially with the 150 lunges post am cardio. Sounds like an injury waiting to happen -as well as potentially increasing cortisol and an overall catabolic environment.
As side note, you seem very dedicated and disciplined. You brought a beautiful package at your last show.
Thank you for your time to reply my post.
About the carbs..maybe you´re right..I need to ajust some things. About the lunges...I´m just trying this out...waiting to see the results or maybe not... My legs look somebody elses body and not a match for my upper body...I have some bad blood circulation (I don´t know how to say it better in english sorry), and I retain a lot of water (always had) - I am a woman! Even most of the times, in my show day I have my period!even while taking stuff. My legs are always far behind my upper body in terms of my preparation. That´s the main reason I am asking for help..something need to be ajjust in dieting, or training or supls or other things.
This all tips i follow and it gives great result for back pain problem.


For the nitwits who vote for the man or woman they'd most like to have over for dinner, or hang out at a barbecue with, I suggest you take a look at how well your 401(k) is doing, or how easy it will be to meet the mortgage this month, or whether the college fund you've been trying to build for your kids is as robust as you'd like it to be.
It's not just the economy. While the United States has been fighting a useless and irresponsible war in Iraq, Afghanistan – the home base of the terrorists who struck us on 9/11 – has been allowed to fall into a state of chaos. Osama bin Laden is still at large. New Orleans is still on its knees. And so on.

September 14, 2015 Texas Department of Public Safety.
The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is seeking the public's assistance in identifying a woman whose remains were discovered in 2000 in Falls County. Based on multiple forensic analyses, investigators estimate that she died in the mid-1980s to possibly early 1990s.
On April 9, 2000, fishermen found a skull at the edge of a pond on County Road 451, approximately five miles from Interstate 35 in Falls County, just south of Waco. Additional remains were discovered with clothing and other personal items, and foul play is suspected in the woman's death.
A DPS Texas Rangers forensic artist was able to develop a facial reconstruction from the skull. The above image represents the victim's probable appearance in the mid-1980s. The victim is believed to be of Hispanic and/or Asian descent, age 25 – 45, and between 4 feet 7 inches and 5 feet 3 inches tall.
A DNA profile has been developed from the bones recovered; however no matches have been made to any known missing person case. It is possible this woman was never officially reported missing.
Among the items found with the remains was a gold pendant, featuring a fire-breathing dragon on one side and a bird on the other side. According to research done by investigators, the images on the necklace may be a depiction of the dragon and phoenix myth, common in Asian culture.
Anyone with information about any missing person matching her description should contact the Texas Rangers' Offices in Waco at: (254) 754-2303, or the Texas Department of Public Safety, Missing Persons Clearinghouse at (512) 424-5074 or (800) 346-3243.
DPS encourages anyone with a missing relative from any time period to submit a familial reference sample of DNA by contacting the agency that investigated the disappearance. The process is simple and free, usually consisting of a simple cheek-swabbing, but must be done via a law enforcement agency.


Your customers want rock-solid, bug-free software that does exactly what they expect it to do. Yet they can't always articulate their ideas clearly enough for you to turn them into code. You need Cucumber: a testing, communication, and requirements tool—all rolled into one. All the code in this book is updated for Cucumber 2.4, Rails 5, and RSpec 3.5.
Few tools have managed to bridge the developer-customer divide as well as Cucumber has. Cucumber is not a tool for testing applications. Cucumber is a philosophy for communicating requirements. This book brings that philosophy to life.
I devoured the Cucumber book on a train ride from Grenoble to Brussels a few days after watching Matt's presentation "BDD As It's Meant to Be Done." These two resources helped me understand in just a few hours how to avoid dozens of common mistakes writing scenarios in the Cucumber style. It's as though I received an injection of perhaps two years of experience writing scenarios poorly so that I didn't have to go through it all myself. What a gift. I recommend this book to everyone working with Cucumber.
Teams can use Cucumber to get a better understanding of what software to build for their customers. In this book, Aslak and Matt do a brilliant job explaining how you get started with Cucumber with plenty of easy-to-follow examples.
To those of you wondering how to use Cucumber effectively, The Cucumber Book is the answer. Not content to write just a testing book, Aslak and Matt have packed it with practical insights on many aspects of software development. Studying this book will make you a better software developer.
Express your customers' wild ideas as a set of clear, executable specifications that everyone on the team can read. Feed those examples into Cucumber and let it guide your development. Build just the right code to keep your customers happy. You can use Cucumber to test almost any system or any platform.
Get started by using the core features of Cucumber and working with Cucumber's Gherkin DSL to describe—in plain language—the behavior your customers want from the system. Then write Ruby code that interprets those plain-language specifications and checks them against your application. Next, consolidate the knowledge you've gained with a worked example, where you'll learn more advanced Cucumber techniques, test asynchronous systems, and test systems that use a database. Recipes highlight some of the most difficult and commonly seen situations the authors have helped teams solve. With these patterns and techniques, test Ajax-heavy web applications with Capybara and Selenium, REST web services, Ruby on Rails applications, command-line applications, legacy applications, and more.
Written by the creator of Cucumber and the co-founders of Cucumber Ltd., this authoritative guide will give you and your team all the knowledge you need to start using Cucumber with confidence.

Dream Chaser
Reusable, reliable human spaceflight transportation
The Dream Chaser® spacecraft is a reusable commercial spaceplane being developed by Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) to carry both pressurized and unpressurized cargo to and from low-Earth orbit (LEO) destinations such as the International Space Station.
In 2016, NASA selected the Dream Chaser to provide cargo delivery to the Space Station under the Commercial Resupply Service 2 (CRS-2) contract. Dream Chaser will provide a minimum of six cargo service missions to and from the Space Station starting in late 2020. SNC is currently building a cargo version of the Dream Chaser, but has the capability of building a crew version that can hold up to seven astronauts.
Aircraft-like Operations: The vehicle is a lifting-body that will launch into space atop a conventional expendable rocket, maneuver in space using onboard propulsion systems, and glide back to Earth for a runway landing at the end of each mission.
Gentle Runway Landing: Low-g (1.5 g) entry & gentle runway landing protects sensitive payloads and science experiments; provides rapid access to payloads upon landing.
Highly Reusable: The cargo version of the Dream Chaser spacecraft is designed to be reused more than 15 times.
Electrical Power System: Aerojet Rocketdyne is supplying the electrical power system for the spaceplane. The efficient and low-cost system will regulate power generated by the solar arrays attached to the vehicle's disposable cargo module and distribute it to the reusable spacecraft's avionics, thermal and propulsion systems, as well as to payloads that require electrical power. Aerojet Rocketdyne will design, develop, fabricate, test and integrate the electrical power system, including the power conversion system, distribution units and rechargeable batteries. The power system will increase the spacecraft's free-flight time in space.

NM PED secretary has announced that the state's graduation rate has increased to nearly 3 percentage points from 2016-2017 to 2017-2018.
DEMING – Public Education Secretary Dr. Karen Trujillo announced on Tuesday that New Mexico's official 2017-2018 four-year graduation rate was 73.9 percent, an all-time high. This figure is nearly three percentage points higher than the 71.1 percent four-year rate in the 2016-2017 school year.
Deming Public Schools has experienced an increase of its own from a district-wide percentage of 67.0 during 2017's four-year cohort to a 71.2 for 2018. The district's graduation rate is the highest measure the district has seen in nine years.
These rates can be broken down to Deming High's 2017 rates of 71.4 to 75.3 for 2018; Deming Cesar Chavez Charter High School – governed by DPS – was found with a rate of 24.2 for 2017's four-year cohort. The charter school's rate then elevated to 33.8 for 2018.
NM PED did not provide data for Mimbres Valley High School due to its small enrollment size.
"Deming Public Schools is very excited about the wonderful outcomes that Deming High School, and Cesar Chavez Charter High School have had with the increases to the graduation rate," DPS Superintendent Dr. Arsenio Romero stated. "This is an important metric for us as educators. This is the goal for students to achieve when they come to us as kindergartners. We look forward to continued growth in the years to come."
Also released from the Public Education Department were the dropout rates. Deming Public Schools is seeing 2.6 percent less students dropping out of school and ultimately graduating from high school. Dropout rates are calculated on a yearly basis using the number of students dropping out of school for various reasons, starting at seventh grade. The district has initiated several initiatives that are contributing to the decrease in drop out rates including additional truancy officers and credit recovery opportunities at the high school level.
Graduation rates are calculated using a shared accountability system. Districts report to the Public Education Department lists of students who are enrolled with them four times per year for a total of 16 records over the four-year period from grades 9-12. If the student graduates, the rate is calculated based on the amount of time the student was with a particular school. For example, if a student attended a school in Las Cruces for two years as a freshman and sophomore and then transferred to Deming for his or her junior and senior years and graduates, each school gets 50 percent credit for that student successfully graduating from high school.
Deming Public Schools' Public Information Officer Jessica Etcheverry contributed to this story. Etcheverry may be reached at 575-936-0638 or at jessica.etcheverry@demingps.org.


It's official: the Global Food Security Act (GFSA), a key piece of legislation to fight hunger and strengthen food security, is about to become law. This exciting news represents the result of years of work by Congress and the food security community, and is a significant step forward to ensure greater food security for many people around the globe.
The House of Representatives voted on July 6th by a margin of 369-53 to approve the GFSA. The bill will now be sent to President Obama for his signature. This is outstanding news for many nutrition and food security organizations including Action Against Hunger who have advocated for the bill's passage for years, and for millions of hungry people around the world who will benefit from the GFSA.
Around the world, approximately 795 million people suffer from hunger. While progress has been made in recent years to reduce this number, we still have a long way to go to ensure food security for all.
The Global Food Security Act strengthens efforts to combat hunger by calling for a comprehensive global food and nutrition security strategy which would permanently authorize the work being done by Feed the Future, the U.S. government's food security initiative currently operating in 19 focus countries around the globe. The Feed the Future initiative was launched in 2010, but it hasn't yet been formally put into law.
The Senate and House of Representatives had both approved the GFSA this spring by wide margins, but there were minor differences between the two versions of the bill. As a result, the House of Representatives voted a second time to approve the Senate measure.
Now, the GFSA will be signed into law by President Obama, which will ensure that Feed the Future's efforts to enhance food security will continue under subsequent administrations after his term in office ends in 2017.
Action Against Hunger would like to thank members of both the House and Senate for their strong votes in support of the Global Food Security Act, and to particularly thank the bill's lead sponsors, Representatives Chris Smith (R-NJ) and Betty McCollum (D-MN), and Senators Johnny Isakson (R-GA) and Robert Casey (D-PA), for their outstanding leadership. We look forward to seeing President Obama sign the GFSA into law and make improved food security a reality for many in the world who still suffer from hunger.

Editorial : Ruth Lorenzo At Eurovision 2014 is Great News For the BBC
By eurovisionireland on February 23, 2014 • ( 1 Comment )
Ruth Lorenzo and the BBC. Photo : Wikimedia
Spain – Ruth Lorenzo at Eurovision 2014 is great news for the BBC this year.
Last night the Spanish public had their say and selected Ruth Lorenzo for Eurovision 2014 with her song "Dancing In The Rain". I am sitting here catching up on the comments from last night's "Eurovision Super Saturday" and let me tell you that some people are badly suffering the effects of karma biting them on the derriere! However one reoccurring thing I noticed were the comments from non Eurovision devotees regarding Ruth Lorenzo going to Eurovision.
This got me thinking! Could this be good news for the BBC?
Well Lorenzo is from that golden demographic that the BBC so desperately want and need to tap into – "The X-Factor Generation". The show may have played second fiddle to the BBC's own "Strictly Come Dancing" in the ratings recently but back when Lorenzo was a contestant on the show she was one of the more well-known personalities whom people will remember the name or the fact she was "that Spanish girl on X-Factor that Simon fancied".
What does the Spanish selection have to do with the UK?
If you look at UK social media sites today, they are awash with "X-Factor's Lorenzo Joins Eurovision". With the BBC keeping its Eurovision fans on tender hooks as to whom they will roll out to Copenhagen, they now have a known name at the contest – Ruth Lorenzo! Regardless of what decade the artists comes from, the BBC have a relatively known and current name at Eurovision. More importantly she fits that 20-35 year old demographic that the BBC so desperately needs to tap into like a BP Rig in the North Sea searching for oil.
Bonnie and Englebert – we loved them in the day – were complete strangers to the young affluent and socially media savvy demographic that the BBC is missing from its Eurovision Audience. Jedward reflected many a young Eurovision fan when they said in 2012 that "We had to google who Englebert was". Well the BBC don't need to do that with Lorenzo as she has been on tv in the UK in the last 5 years.
How to keep the Eurovision "Faith"?
We all read earlier this week Paloma Faith claiming "Are you all insane" at the idea was that she would enter Eurovision. Let's face it the BBC has a "Eurovision Image Problem" at home that needs to be addressed. If getting a former X-Factor contestant brings them closer to a younger demographic then this has to go some way to repairing the scorn that the general media has for the contest in the UK.
If nothing else the 20 to 35 audience (I am slightly outside that box these days myself but I don't let anyone know) might want to know how that "Girl From X-Factor will do at Eurovision". Furthermore part of the song is in English. The BBC must be beside themselves with joy! Spain has just delivered an act that the UK audience will remember – no matter how far back in the depths of their Reality TV memories she is – she is still there!
The BBC should be thanking the Spanish Public for a few extra viewers to their Graham Norton coverage of the Eurovision this May but more importantly it my start the ball rolling in the attempt to get younger artists, songwriters and producers involved in the UK entry if they see interest in a Spanish girl who came to our attention on a talent show.

♦ I love the environment and the infrastructure, facility the most. And want to come here again. The surrounding here is fully disciplined and every staff of this academy is very good and cheerful.
♦ I think the last 10 days spent here are the life changing period of my life. I have developed self-confidence, stamina and learnt many important lessons of life.
♦ All the infrastructure facilities starting from hostel, mess, grounds, sports facilities, classrooms etc. are awesome. I think this is the only academy of our country having such quality of facilities.
♦ After 10 days of training I have become a more confident person. I think my decision for taking coaching in this academy was the most beneficial decision of my life as this training made me a more active person not just for the SSB interview but for the whole life.
♦ I have already thought that when I will meet my friends after reaching my home town then I would suggest each one of them to join the course just for 10 days because I have felt myself that Minerva academy not only trains the students for their SSB interview but they teach the lessons which would be helpful in every step of life.

This letter must be on the official letterhead of the institution and must include the student's name, the date visited, and a brief statement of activities the student engaged in during the visit. The letter must be signed by an official of the institution.
DRIVER RESPONSIBILITY ACT
Certificate of Enrollment (necessary to get driver's permit/license)
The Teenage and Adult Driver Responsibility Act (TAADRA) requires that local school systems certify a student's enrollment in order for the student to hold a Georgia driver's permit or license. The certificate must be presented before taking the test for driver permit/license. The form may be obtained in the Attendance office for a $2 service fee and 24-hour notice. Payment of this $2 fee via My Payments Plus will generate the certificate required within 24 hours.
The local school is required to report non-compliance for any student to the Georgia Department of Public Safety (DPS) who:
has withdrawn from school without re-enrolling for ten consecutive school days
has accrued more than ten school days of unexcused absences in any combination of two consecutive semesters
has been suspended from school for:
threatening, striking, or causing bodily harm to a teacher or other school personnel
possession or sale of drugs or alcohol on school property
possession or use of a weapon on school property
After non-compliance has been sent to the DPS, the parent of the licensee will be notified of permit or license suspension by certified mail. Please visit the Georgia Department of Public Safety for information regarding reinstatement.
All early dismissal notes must be submitted to the Attendance office the morning of the day the student is to leave early. The Attendance office calls the parent/guardian to confirm each note that is submitted. The student will not be permitted to leave campus until the note is verified. Parent contact must be through the phone numbers in the student information system. Please be sure the note includes a current phone number where a parent/guardian can be reached. If a parent wishes for another adult to pick up the student, this request must also be in writing and/or their name(s) must be in the student information portal. If a parent or guardian cannot be reached, the students will not be allowed leave school. If a student leaves without this confirmation, the student will receive disciplinary action. Phone calls to the Attendance office for early dismissal or student checkout are prohibited. If a checkout note is not submitted for verification, the parent will be required to show identification in the Attendance office to process the checkout request.
At the time of early dismissal/checkout, all students must sign out in the Attendance office before leaving. If returning the same day, students must also sign in at the Attendance office. Failure to sign in or out properly may result in disciplinary action. Parent phones calls or emails to the Attendance office for early dismissal will only be accepted in cases of emergency.
If a student becomes ill during the day, the student must report to the clinic for evaluation before requesting an early dismissal/checkout. If a student needs to go home, the clinic nurse will call a parent for pick-up. For student safety, a parent will be required to pick-up a student from the clinic if the student is being sent home for illness. The parent will be required to show identification before the student is released.
TARDINESS
The school day begins at 8:20 a.m. Students are expected to report to school and be in each class on time. Students who are tardy to class will have the following consequences:
1st–3rd Unexcused Tardy:
Warning posted on the tardy slip issued through the attendance office
4th Unexcused Tardy:
One day of Saturday school
Warning that 6th unexcused tardy will result in loss of parking, per CCSD policy, and two days of Saturday school
Parents contacted
Two days of Saturday school and a loss of parking privileges, per CCSD policy
Warning that 8th unexcused tardy will result in three days of ISS
Three (3) days of ISS
Warning that 10th unexcused tardy will result in two days of OSS and administrative conference with parent and student
10th Unexcused Tardy:
Administrative conference with student and parent
Two days of OSS for insubordination
LATE CHECK-INS
Students who report to school late due must check in through the Attendance office. An email statement from the parent/guardian must be submitted to the Attendance office within 24 hours to process an excused tardy (please see guidelines for excusing an attendance incident under attendance). Failure to sign-in with the Attendance office will be referred to the administration for disciplinary consequences.
LEAVING CAMPUS
Students who plan to leave campus before regular dismissal must check out through the Attendance office (see early dismissal procedures). Students are not allowed to leave campus at any time after their initial arrival on campus without permission from the Attendance office. Early arrival for whatever reason constitutes being on campus and requires the student to follow early dismissal procedures. Leaving or attempting to leave campus without permission will be punishable by an assignment to the in-school suspension program on the first offense and will result in the loss of parking privileges. Early dismissal for illness must be certified through the school clinic.
FORGED/FALSE ATTENDANCE RECORDS
All attendance statements (i.e., parent notes) must be sent from the parent's email account. The forgery of any attendance related statements given to school officials by students is a serious offense. Submitting a statement of absence that has not been written by a parent will result in disciplinary action.
OUT-OF-TOWN/UNAVAILABLE PARENTS
The student's alpha administrator should be notified when parents will be unavailable for contact. Both routine and emergency situations require that a responsible adult be contacted.

Metamorphosis author Lyssa Tall Anolik's background spans interests and training from environmental education and interpretation to forestry and zoology, with writing as a side interest until she made it her main profession with her master's degree in fine arts. Her interest in zoology and environmental education goes back to high school, when she served as a naturalist at the Seattle Aquarium during the summers. Her interest in working with kids led her to environmental education, and she spent time as a ranger at Mt. Rainier and Olympic National Parks. She began her undergraduate career majoring in forestry at the University of Washington because it was the closest she could come to environmental education, and appreciated the balanced perspective she encountered regarding forest ecology, forest management, land use, wildlife preservation, habitat restoration, and meeting economic and recreational needs.
Writing stayed with her as an undercurrent, always present in her life. She writes poetry and memoir, and has a particular interest in nature writing. After nearly a decade in the field of environmental education with a focus on watershed education and management, she returned to school for a Master of Fine Arts in writing from the Vermont College of Fine Arts.
I wanted to hear more about the experience in Italy that led to this piece, her writing process, and her understanding of herself as an environmental practitioner. I enjoyed getting to know Lyssa Tall Anolik and vicariously experiencing her adventures as she shared further about her Tuscan excursion.
Lyssa Tall Anolik: My husband and I lived there for his work in 2009. He's a software engineer. We were in Norway for the summer, then immediately following that in Italy for three months in the fall. While he was working, I was exploring, writing, and learning how to live in two very different cultures. In Norway it was not about food — they don't have much of a food culture, other than fish. It was all about the natural landscape, and hiking.
Italy was all about the food. We're foodies, and we ate our way through Italy. We lived in Marina di Carrera, an industrial town at the foot of the Apuan Alps in the northwest corner of Tuscany, where they mine marble. There were always big trucks rumbling by with slabs of marble on them. We got a very true experience of what it was like to live there, in a studio apartment in a residential area. On the weekends, we would get in the car and drive out into the countryside to explore, find little hill towns and restaurants, and sample whatever they were serving.
The experience that generated "Eating Italy" was a three-day weekend spent in the Sienna hill town region. We stayed at an agriturismo, a working farm, where they grow all their own produce and feed you from the farm. It's amazing! They're all over that area. This one was recommended by a co-worker of my husband's, where he's taken his family on vacation. There were not many other Americans around. The farm was in a valley below the town of San Gimignano, known for it's many medieval stone towers.
Another part of the piece is about the nearby town of Volterra. We just happened to be there on their annual festival day: Halloween, and also their white truffle festival. All the restaurants were serving white truffle specials, such as the fondue I wrote about. In the piece, I also talk about visiting an Etruscan museum. The Etruscans were the original natives of that region, from whom Tuscany gets its name. The museum displays funerary urns of their cremated remains, with beautifully carved stone lids that survived because they were preserved in a chalk hillside.
WT: Can you tell us about your writing process for this piece?
LTA: All my first drafts come out as stream-of-consciousness free writes, which I did a lot of in Italy to capture these experiences. I didn't begin shaping this one until I came home. About a year later, I turned it into a prose poem, working with my poetry critique group. I sent it out to a number of other journals in earlier forms, but it was never quite the right fit. It was a piece I was really attached to and I wanted to find a good home for it.
When I came across the Metamorphosis call, I was in love with the theme. "Eating Italy" immediately came to mind. I thought, "This is a metamorphosis, the way we're eating the land: growing things, eating them, dying, the ashes, the whole cycle of life." I took it out and edited it a bit more and sent it in. I was excited when it was accepted; it had found the right home.
WT: What do you see as your reflective environmental practice, or how do you see your work affecting the way people view the rest of the natural world?
LTA: Environmentalism and a deep personal connection to nature is really the foundation of my life. Even though I'm not teaching environmental education anymore, my writing tends to reflect a love of the land and the need to care for and steward it. Trees show up a lot in my writing.
My full time job right now is being a mom. As a mother, I want to pass on that love of trees, animals, bugs and the way all the pieces of the ecological world fit together to my daughter. From the time she was three months old, my husband and I were taking her around the garden, feeling plants. We started her camping when she was 3 months old, letting her feel tree bark.
It's interesting: becoming a mother has made me realize how disconnected we are from the natural world because it's so easy to become stuck inside the house. Looking around at all her toys, many are plastic and synthetic. They're not natural materials. It's really made me work harder to get her outside, to go on walks. We also try to leave as small of a footprint as we can, installing solar panels, driving an electric car (a Volt), and other ways we can be a positive example to our daughter.
When I was teaching environmental education I worked a lot with inner city kids, and when we took them to the forest, they were terrified. I think it's important to nurture a relationship with the natural world. I want to raise a child who's not addicted to video games and screens, but has a desire to be outside and have an authentic relationship with the earth.

BUSINESS Jio-bp partners with BluSmart to set up EV charging infra in India
Mumbai, (Asian independent) Jio-bp, the fuel and mobility joint venture between Reliance Industries Ltd and bp, has announced a partnership with BluSmart, an all-electric ride-hailing platform to set up a network of commercial large scale EV charging stations.
As part of the partnership, Jio-bp will set up these stations for passenger electric vehicles and fleets across the country, said a statement.
BluSmart, through its all-electric fleet, has been disrupting the mobility landscape by providing reliable, zero-surge and zero-tailpipe emission ride-hailing service in Delhi NCR. Running the largest fleet of EVs, BluSmart aims to expand its network into other major cities across India, it said.
Through this partnership, both companies will collaborate in planning, development and operation of EV charging infrastructure, at suitable locations across cities where BluSmart operates
With the first phase-roll out in the National Capital Region, these EV charging stations will be capable of accommodating a minimum of 30 vehicles at each station and will be concentrated in urban areas.
Harish C. Mehta, Chief Executive Officer, Jio-bp said: "Jio-bp will be at the forefront of EV infrastructure development in the country. Leveraging bp's learnings from the UK with bp Pulse, where they have the country's largest EV charging network, from Germany through their Aral brand, Jio-bp intends to bring in the latest in EV technology to our consumers."
"In line with the New Energy vision of RIL, our Advanced Mobility teams are working tirelessly to create cleaner and smarter ways for Indians to travel. Our partnership with BluSmart is a significant milestone in our vision of offering new age low-carbon emitting, cleaner and more affordable options," Mehta said.
Anmol Jaggi, Co-Founder and CEO, BluSmart said that BluSmart operates large EV charging Superhubs powering the burgeoning EV fleet and the partnership with Jio-bp is a true testament of BluSmart's ability to provide world-class EV charging infrastructure solutions for India.
"We are thrilled to be partnering with Jio-bp and are committed to take this strategic collaboration to greater heights. EV Superhubs are the future of EV charging as it provides seamless charging access to consumers and ride-hailing fleets and we will be jointly building some of the largest EV Superhubs in the world," Jaggi said.
As an integrated EV infrastructure player, Jio-bp is actively partnering with leading OEMs, technology, and platform players for setting up its EV fixed charging stations with a format-specific approach for all vehicle categories.
Jio-bp will bring the best of bp's global learnings in electrification and apply them to the Indian market to create a differentiated customer experience that delights the consumer, said the statement.

Telcos' debt to rise post spectrum purchase: Report


The Michigan State University – Wildlife Toxicology Laboratory (MSU-WTL) conducted a site-specific, multi-year, multi-line of evidence study examining wildlife health as it pertained to potential exposures and effects of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) within the Kalamazoo River watershed. The five-year study served the public interest by providing real, site-specific data for effective science-based decision-making as well as the advancement of science pertaining to environmental exposures and effects of PCBs on wildlife. The then present lack of site-specific biological data made it difficult to predict risks to any Kalamazoo River wildlife.
The studies carried out by the MSU-WTL were used to determine the actual exposures and population level responses of wildlife receptors. The study elucidated site-specific and congener-specific stressor exposure and population health for those ecological receptors that were identified as being of greatest priority. The studies conducted were of two types, exposure studies and effects studies. Exposure studies gathered site-specific data on the concentrations of individual PCB congeners in food web items. This, combined with site-specific dietary data, directly defined PCB exposures, thereby minimizing the need for conservative exposure assumptions. Effects studies examined site-specific receptor health and fecundity at both the individual and population levels.
The project investigated aquatic and terrestrial environments that included both field and laboratory components. The groups of animals studied included, songbirds (eastern bluebirds, house wrens and tree swallows), small mammals (voles and mice), the semi aquatic muskrats and American mink, great horned owls, bald eagles, fish, frogs and turtles. The project was conducted by a team of postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, technicians and undergraduate student aids. Research into each unique group of receptor species was lead by a graduate research assistant.
In 1990, approximately 125 km (~80 mi) of the Kalamazoo River was designated a Superfund site, referred to as the Kalamazoo River Area of Concern (KRAOC). The site extends from Morrow Dam in Kalamazoo County to Lake Michigan. The release of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), the contaminant of concern (COC), resulted primarily from PCB-contaminated waste discharged from the recycling and processing of carbon-less copy paper. During the project, which was conducted year-round for 5 years, the field team worked closely, living in a "field house" at Michigan State University's Kellogg Biological Station.
This site was designed to provide residents, landowners, and stakeholders with information regarding our research, which was made possible by the cooperation of numerous landowners throughout the area, to whom we are extremely grateful.
