England is at the moment in the midst of a nationwide lockdown that bans family mixing, so Chadda will simply be cooking for his mother and father this yr.

Chadda normally enjoys the course of of shopping for fireworks and adorning his house in the lead-up to Diwali.

The context of Covid additionally provides a distinct dynamic to the celebrations, provides Chadda.
"We might be having a happy and safe Diwali in our homes but there are people out there that might have just recently lost a loved one due to coronavirus so it might not be the happiest Diwali for them," he says.
His 2020 celebrations will likely be low-key, however "we just have to appreciate and celebrate the occasion for what it is," says Chadda.

But he's grateful to have the alternative to rejoice, even when it's extra low-key this yr.
"I'm healthy and my loved ones are around me. It just makes you realize that all those years of festivities and celebrations, to an extent, you end up taking it for granted. We just have to appreciate and celebrate the occasion for what it is, and the pandemic can't kill your vibe," he provides.

Devanarayanan says conversations have revolved round how the true essence of Diwali is discovering positivity in the second, and being grateful for well being and happiness. Large-scale celebrations aren't mandatory; what's essential is cherishing time spent with these near you.

"We're also organizing a special singing game called Antakshari, where you're in teams, as well as a Bollywood quiz which I've written," says Dutt, who's a journalist and writer.
"That works surprisingly well on Zoom; the kids in the families have also created rangoli drawings which will be judged on the call. We're also connecting into one particular family in India who will be having fireworks in their large garden."
In Canada, Smita Galbraith, who works as a citizen consultant in British Columbia says she sees Diwali as the starting of the new yr and a time for a contemporary begin. This yr isn't any totally different on that entrance, however in different methods the celebrations really feel totally different.
"Plans have definitely changed," she tells CNN Travel. "We typically would celebrate with having sweets and savory snacks shared between our family and friends. We go to our friends' house and light sparklers and also my kids and I go to the temple, and also light up diyas and make some fun rangoli designs outside our house."
This yr Galbraith has simply been celebrating along with her instant household. She's been making her personal snacks and sweets, and instructing her daughter the best way to make them.
This include its personal delights.
"My friends have been sharing videos/pictures on WhatsApp with each other and we are all inspiring each other to create new foods. We will also use sparklers in our backyard and light diyas around our house!"
For fellow Canadian Amal Dave, who works at the Royal Bank of Canada in Toronto, Diwali has at all times began with cleansing his house.
"I wouldn't usually use the terms 'celebrating' and 'cleaning' in the same sentence, but with Diwali it symbolizes new beginnings and a fresh start," he says.
This yr, he is additionally embracing video calls and digital greetings.
"We would usually go out to the temple here for the Diwali puja, but that was not possible due to the current situations," he says. "Instead, my mom did puja at home and celebrated virtually with the rest of our family.
For Dave, previous Diwalis have also involved visiting relatives in India and enjoying big celebrations. But he says some of the smaller scale substitutions have been equally as special.
His family usually buy and enjoy lots of sweet treats, but this year they switched to making the delicacies at home.
"[It] proved to be a fair higher expertise," says Dave. "It introduced us nearer as a household as we obtained to spend extra time with one another."

Where would we be without the the London Landmarks? If I asked you to name them, people will say, Buckingham Palace, Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge, Tower of London and St Pauls to name a few. When people come to London, they invariably photograph them with their mobile phone or compact camera. They do this to create memories of their trip to London. Below are some images I have taken of some Landmarks in London. I will go and take some more. Some of the images taken were from the Thames Foreshore, and some were from street level. If you want to surprise your friends with some stunning images, please have a look at the bottom of this article as it will contain some useful links.
Let me give you some information that you may find handy to where to photograph some of the London Landmarks. This isn't a secret, but not well known. If you want to get an unobtrusive vantage point of some of the Landmarks near the River Thames, have a look at the following links.
Port of London Authority Tide Times.
Access to the River Thames Foreshore.
Disclaimer: The above links are provided out of courtesy, and you are responsible for your own safety and risk assessment. When accessing the foreshore, please do not get too close to the edge of the Thames, and where possible go with someone. Please also wear suitable footwear, and please bear in mind that there may be sharp objects (needles, glass, metal, etc) on the foreshore.


August is always somehow different. All the usual patterns of diary commitments are on hold because of holidays. I've enjoyed not having so many time-related entries in my diary although September is already making itself heard. Of course, the wonderful weather has helped and it's been marvellous to practically live in the garden. It's my favourite 'room' in the house. As usual, we've had the unpredictability to manage – we've been boiled and/or wet and/or cold but the British need challenging weather to talk about! I'm not an expert gardener but there has been a real shortage of produce this year – not sufficient supplies of apples, plums or cherries to pass on to a clever friend who makes all her own jams and preserves. I've been told that it may be something to do with the bees not pollinating at the usual time because of the change in the timing of the seasons. However, it was such a treat to pick the only fruit which favoured me this year – strawberries which grew in profusion – sweeter than any purchased. I do remember taking the children to 'Pick your Own' many years ago. It used to be a special outing – we couldn't afford holidays at that time – and the taste of those fresh strawberries came back to me as I sat in the garden swing with a bowl of my home grown fruit.
Of course the Olympics featured large in August. Even for those who have little interest it was hard not to be moved when watching all those participants straining to be the best at their particular discipline. Just imagine working hard for four years, knowing that in some cases, your place in history might depend on just a few minutes or those taking part in events which took place over several days or hours. To manage that level of disappointment of not getting a medal just shows the resilience and bravery of anyone prepared to put themselves in such a position. That wave of patriotism will carry many people through the months to come; it's hard to take in the level of success of so many athletes.
As for family matters, one daughter is now in her new house and there is so much to celebrate on that front and gifts to give. My other daughter is living with me at the moment so I have had the pleasure of her many friends visiting her and in particular one evening when one of her fellow band members rehearsed here with her for a gig; hearing two saxophones playing in perfect tune and harmony was a joy indeed. It's lovely being able to revisit the days before my children flew the nest and re-enact the mothering role again and it's a pleasure to have her company. And finally, one granddaughter who has secured her place at university – all her hard work rewarded so more happy news while another granddaughter achieved high grades at GCSE Levels; much celebrating on that front too.
On the charity front, I've managed two visits. I'm fortunate enough to live near to a very large garden centre and they held their annual car boot sale, the proceeds of which went to The Dementia Society and again, at the same venue, the local Flower Club held their annual weekend display. The theme this year was Sayings. Each display had its own collection tin and the public was invited to put a donation into that which they liked the best. At the end of the event, the display with the most money was declared the winner and was presented with a cup. All the proceeds were divided between The Air Ambulance and Guide Dogs for the Blind. My lovely neighbour's display was called 'Every Cloud has a Silver Lining'. It was truly artistic and I had no hesitation in putting my donation into her tin. The bonus was that she actually had the most donations and therefore was the winner. Well done June!!!
As for an Awareness Day for September, I have to acknowledge Julie's help. We've been sorting diaries for me to try a FABS class. How's this for a co-incidence? I've chosen 7 September which Julie points out is National Fitness Day organised by UK Active. I hope you agree that this is an excellent choice. I shall have to try and remember it while I'm going through my paces on the day. I'll let you know at the end of September.

Q: terminology for the derivative of a trajectory in phase space Suppose we have 2nd order ODE.  For example: $x'' + x = 0.$
We can view this as a first order ODE in two dimensions:
$x' = v$
$v' = -x$
What is the vector $(x', v') = (v, -x)$ called?

A: When working with a system $\vec{x}'=f(\vec x)$, I call $\vec{x}'$ the velocity vector. And I am not alone (middle of first page). The idea is that $\vec x$ is the position vector of a point in the phase space, so the derivative naturally corresponds to velocity.
This may be awkward when you also think of $v$ as velocity of point at position $x$, as in your example. But you have to decide: do you want to think about second-order equation, or about the equivalent first-order system? If it's the latter, then you forget the original meaning of $x$ and $v$ and think of $(x,v)$ as coordinates of a point, with velocity $(x',v')$.

Why buy a ukulele hanger?
Ukulele hangers are a great accessory to display and protect your ukulele. While stands require taking up space on a desk of other flat surface, hangers allow you to maximize your room space by hanging your instruments in the air. This has the additional benefit of storing your ukulele high up, out of reach of children or pets. Some hangers are meant for attachment to walls, as a fairly permanent placement. While other hangers will allow you to clip on to surfaces like mic-stands or desks. Overall, hangers are an excellent way to provide protection for your ukulele, while keeping it within arm's length for a quick jam.
Pros: Clip rotates for easy attachment to a variety of objects in either direction. Very durable and portable.
Cons: More expensive than other ukulele hangers. Not particularly stylish.
Pros: Hardwood base panel comes in different finishes to match any existing setup. Includes drywall screws for easy mounting.
Cons: Depending on the ukulele shape, the uke may stick out from the wall. This particular model is meant for ukuleles or mandolins and will not fit larger instruments.
Pros: Great value at under $10. Hanger is highly adjustable, and will fit ukuleles and guitars alike. Simple and uniform black design.
Cons: Padding is relatively thin. Large logo is a blemish on an otherwise elegant style.
Pros: Inexpensive hanger option. Sturdy with only two mounted screws. Adjustable hanger, but for small instruments only.
Cons: Not suitable for larger instruments. Mixed coloring has an inelegant appearance.

Jean Sénac (29 November 1926 – 30 August 1973) was an Algerian author. Born of an unknown father in Béni Saf in the Oran region of Algeria, the "poet who signed with a sun" was murdered in Algiers on 30 August 1973. His murder remains unsolved. Besides his poems and writings, he was renowned for a long-running relationship and correspondences with Albert Camus. A portion of his papers are stored at the City Archives in Marseille, France.

Career
Sénac was an Algerian francophone poet who remained strongly attached to his Algerian nationality despite the French exodus from Algeria in the aftermath of the war of liberation. His poems were largely songs of revolution, which he hoped would help create a world of beauty and brotherhood in an Algeria that was open to all cultures.

His own struggles were strongly linked with his quest to better Algeria through poetry: a profound search for identity, both personal and cultural and his struggle to find acceptance in his homosexuality plagued him throughout his life; "This poor body also/ Wants its war of independence", he once wrote.  Sénac was a great admirer of the work of such poets as Gérard de Nerval, Arthur Rimbaud, Antonin Artaud and Jean Genêt.

Relationship with Albert Camus
Sénac had a long-running relationship with French Algerian-born writer and Literary Nobel Prize laureate Albert Camus that lasted from 1947 to 1958. The contents of the letters remain mostly unknown, although   Hamid Nacer-Khodja published a few and wrote about the history of the friendship in his essay Le Fils rebelle. many correspondences are of a literary nature, but some also discuss the independence movement in Algeria.

In April 1958 he broke relations with Albert Camus on a sour note blaming him for not supporting the plight of an Algerian student named Taleb executed for his political activities against the French. He did not communicate further with Camus from that day on until Camus' death early 1960.

Telltale games made a name for themselves by doing serialized adventures with huge success, they brought back these classic games and when they license games, they managed to keep the wits by working closely with the original developers.
Sadly the games are too advanced for your standard Android device, that's why they are exclusive for the time being on Tegra 2 tablets.
Sam & Max Season 3 was shown and it ran beautifully, they also showed Trailers of Back to the future, their newest adventure, that will hopefully also come to Android, it is not officially announced yet.
They also showed iPhone hit Puzzle Agent on the booth of our beloved plattform. It will be just a matter of time, until we can get all the new adventures on our devices, so stay tuned.
Here are some videos of the games they've shown.
Nowadays tablets attraction is too much high in all over the world so obviously gaming in tablet plays vital role also,because tablets are mainly designed for HD android gaming and internet facility.
article and that i can appreciate the study you needed to do.

The Long Dark's story mode launch trailer is haunting and chilly
Hinterland Studio's Early Access survival romp, The Long Dark, officially launches on August 1. To get us ready to struggle through the Canadian Wilderness, the developers have unveiled the launch trailer for the game's episodic story mode, the first season of which is called Wintermute.
Take a gander at the best survival games on PC.
Unlike the sandbox survival mode, Wintermute has a narrative running through it, pitting pilot Will Mackenzie and Dr. Astrid Greenwood against nature in the aftermath of a geomagnetic catastrophe – the reason all the power has gone out and Canada has gone dark. Despite the name, it has nothing to do with William Gibson's genre-defining novel Neuromancer.
The Long Dark will launch with the first two episodes of season one, while the other three will arrive later this year and into 2018. Everyone who has bought the game will get access to the entire season, as well as the survival mode.
I'm looking forward to jumping back into the game. Like a lot of Early Access titles, I played a bunch at launch, but bounced off it while I waited for the full release. It's a striking game, featuring a harsh but undeniably beautiful world elevated by its confident aesthetic. And I can't help but appreciate the purity of its survival conceit – you won't find any dinos or dongs here.
The Long Dark launches on Steam on August 1 for £26.99/$34.99.

Nanoparticles of heavy materials such as gold can be used as markers in quantitative electron microscopic studies of protein distributions in cells with nanometer spatial resolution. Studying nanoparticles within the context of cells is also relevant for nanotoxicological research. Here, we report a method to quantify the locations and the number of nanoparticles, and of clusters of nanoparticles inside whole eukaryotic cells in three dimensions using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) tomography. Whole-mount fixed cellular samples were prepared, avoiding sectioning or slicing. The level of membrane staining was kept much lower than is common practice in transmission electron microscopy (TEM), such that the nanoparticles could be detected throughout the entire cellular thickness. Tilt-series were recorded with a limited tilt-range of 80u thereby preventing excessive beam broadening occurring at higher tilt angles. The 3D locations of the nanoparticles were nevertheless determined with high precision using computation. The obtained information differed from that obtained with conventional TEM tomography data since the n ... mehranoparticles were highlighted while only faint contrast was obtained on the cellular material. Similar as in fluorescence microscopy, a particular set of labels can be studied. This method was applied to study the fate of sequentially up-taken low-density lipoprotein (LDL) conjugated to gold nanoparticles in macrophages. Analysis of a 3D reconstruction revealed that newly up-taken LDL-gold was delivered to lysosomes containing previously up-taken LDL-gold thereby forming onion-like clusters.

The cherry blossoms have been fickle as always, with peak bloom dates changing. Before calling NPS to request a change of date, I decided to go check out the blossoms myself on Wednesday.
After finding zero blossoms, I thought I'd see if the shoe memorial to gun violence victims was still up. It wasn't, but there were tons of students still at the Capitol lawn protesting. Regardless of how you feel about their goals, it's worth noting that every kid I met was polite and respectful. As a former teacher, this gives me hope for the future. Civil discourse, kids being interviewed in Spanish for various media, kids stopping to say hi and show me their signs, and kids who politely gave me space to walk while I lugged around a giant purse, camera, and toddler on my back!
As adults, we want kids to learn to be respectful citizens, to understand civics, to understand that actions have consequences, and not to eat Tide Pods. I saw kids who were all of the things we want, and in an extremely diverse crowd.
Most of my work focuses on capturing people, but when you have a chance to document history, you do it!
The sign that stood out the most read "Fix this before I text my mom from under a desk." As the parent of two little girls, it broke my heart and terrified me.

Q: How can I scroll content inside div but not scroll parent container? I have grid based layout with two columns (aside and section) inside container (main). Every column should be scrollable separately but container should not be scrollable at all. The heights of both columns are dynamic but container has fixed height.
I've tried two approaches with overflow-y on parent container :

*

*With overflow-y: scroll but .... When I finish scrolling inside one of child divs e.g (aside) the whole container(main) starting to scroll what is not I want.

*With overflow-y: hidden but .... then content inside scrollable child divs is cut, like
here:
cut content inside child scrollable divs when parent has overflow-y to hidden
I've also tired with overscroll-behaviour property but it seems to be not working, I have no clue why.

main {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 336px 2fr;
  overflow-y: scroll;
  /*hidden cuts my content */
  max-height: 400px;
}

section {
  max-height: 100vh;
  border: 1px solid black;
  overflow-y: scroll;
  --webkit-overscroll-behavior-y: none;
}

aside {
  border: 1px solid blue;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: flex-start;
  overflow-y: scroll;
  max-height: 100vh;
  --webkit-overscroll-behavior-y: none;
}

Here is snippet for this case:
https://jsfiddle.net/Lgeayx4u/3/
Is it possible do what I want with pure CSS? I would like to avoid JS.

A: If you don't want the outer container to scroll and also keep a fixed height to it, then definitely you will not be able to reach the complete content for the aside and section portions. The better option is to let them inherit the container's height and set overflow-y: hidden on the container:

main {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 336px 2fr;
  overflow-y: hidden;
  /*hidden cuts my content */
  height: 300px;
}

section, aside{ height: 100%; }
section {
  max-height: 100vh;
  border: 1px solid black;
  overflow-y: scroll;
  --webkit-overscroll-behavior-y: none;
}

aside {
  border: 1px solid blue;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: flex-start;
  overflow-y: scroll;
  max-height: 100vh;
  --webkit-overscroll-behavior-y: none;
}

Imperial Struggle
120m - 240m
The Campaign/Battle Card Driven mechanic is a relatively recent development in war games that focuses the players' actions on cards they have in their hand. The very basic idea is that performing a single action uses a single card. Games where cards are used to determine the outcome of battles do not use this mechanic.
Card drafting games are games in which players pick cards from a limited subset, such as a common pool, to gain some advantage (immediate or longterm) or to assemble hands of cards that are used to meet objectives within the game.

Imperial Struggle is quite the event game. The theme comes alive through the wonderful artwork, cards, flags, and wars with different resolution effects. Most importantly though, it comes alive through the players actions. One player taking key forts, deploying squadrons to a theater, controlling markets, taking a key political space you were eyeing.. once again bringing the attention to the Scottish or what have you.. these sort of little things will bring the feeling of controlling a vast empire alive, through all the different eras. This is a very long game. With practice, it can be condensed to about 3h. But it's worth it and you're engaged every single minute of the experience. There's a very steep learning curve to this game if you're learning the game on your own. This is a game where a good teacher can make a crucial difference, because in essence, the game isn't very complex. But the rulebook is a pain to go through and there's a lot of fiddly exceptions and corner cases to the rules, which often times cause the game to pause when you need the rulebook to answer your question. The biggest downside I see is calculating the strength of different forces for wars. One player is tallying and naming board spaces, and another player counting out loud to make sure every point is accounted for. I'm torn, because on one hand, it's good that you don't know exactly at a glance how you're doing in a particular war (plus the war tiles add some uncertainty), but on the other hand it makes the counting tedious, and for those who want to make the best decisions, you'd like to be able to tell quickly where X theater outcome is currently at. Some player aids exist for that, but add a little bit more maintenance to an already procedural game. This is another of my quirks: the game is very procedural and has a lot of steps that you must follow to make sure you have everything right. Granted that this a given for more complex GMT titles, but still. Other games can achieve greatness with less procedural game development. The benefits of this approach are how faithful to the theme you can be. The fact that all wars have different outcomes and different thresholds for winning. The way that the event cards interconnect with your governments and provide yet another angle for strategy. How you're trying to pick the best government cards that will suit your long and, sometimes, short term strategy. The way forts work and how conquest points are so important. How squadrons feel and are deployed across the world. This game is truly engaging and enjoyable to play. At the core of it all, it boils down to action selection of one tile per turn. And that in itself already makes it strategically enjoyable and creates different narratives. One round diplomatic actions might be sparse, which shifts action away from Europe. Next round, it's all about that damn Baltic Trade or some other alliance that grants an advantage token. And those are also great! The fact that with so little you can represent the natives support, or diplomatic strength (wars in Europe are so expensive!). Every inch of the board is tackled with detail, and it shows. Did I also say each side is asymmetric and has different tools at their disposal to craft a long term strategy? Overall, as I say, this is a fantastic game to play. It's almost like a bonding experience with a like minded friend. What you win on one side you'll lose in another, as you cannot do everything every time. Peace is simply undercover war, and war is powerful and with far reaching consequences. This is a game I'd like to play and delve into, discover profoundly, and enjoy its stories. Sadly, the fact that it's so long, fiddly, and that I cannot give it the time it properly deserves it will make it a game that I will try to play whenever possible, but that rarely will hit the table.

What an amazing game, and quite the advancement on Twilight Struggle. My brain is often tired after playing but also still intrigued into what is possible. It has also been a treat to play a game where there is still exploration on what is the stronger strategies.
aubrix
didn't play a complete game but wow. very different from [i]Twilight Struggle[/i] which i didn't expect. i would say it's not as quite as accessible owing to it being a bit more complex but it does help that deck knowledge isn't as essential to performing well in this game. looking forward to a full game after which i will revise this. :) can actually see this going up to a 10 possibly.

Note: Before posting questions on rules, components, or clarifications or any other questions; please refer to the Imperial Struggle Corrections and Clarifications document. This file was created by, and is maintained by, the designers. As of July 2020 a set of Living Rules have been released.
In 1697 the Sun King, Louis XIV, emerged from a decade of war with his Continental ambitions still unsatisfied. Meanwhile, King William III of England sat easier on his new throne than he ever had before. With the Spanish succession crisis unresolved and looming, there were no illusions that the new century would be a quiet one. But neither France nor England could have anticipated the tumult of the years to come: a Second Hundred Years' War, during which these two tenacious adversaries would compete fiercely and proudly along every axis of human achievement. On battlefields from India to Canada to the Caribbean Sea their armies and fleets would clash; in the salons of Paris and the coffee-houses of London the modern world's politics and economics would be born; and finally a revolution would rock the foundations of society – a revolution that could have ended not in blood and terror but in a triumph of democracy and liberty that might have transformed the world beyond imagining.
Imperial Struggle is a two-player game depicting the 18th-century rivalry between France and Britain. It begins in 1697, as the two realms wait warily for the King of Spain to name an heir, and ends in 1789, when a new order brought down the Bastille. The game is not merely about war: both France and Britain must build the foundations of colonial wealth, deal with the other nations of Europe, and compete for glory across the span of human endeavor.
Imperial Struggle covers almost 100 years of history and four major wars. Yet it remains a low-complexity game, playable in a short evening. It aims to honor its spiritual ancestor, Twilight Struggle, by pushing further in the direction of simple rules and playable systems, while maintaining global scope and historical sweep in the scope of a single evening. In peace turns, players build their economic interests and alliances, and take advantage of historical events represented by Event cards. They must choose their investments wisely, but also with an eye to denying these opportunities to their opponent. In war turns, each theater can bring great rewards of conquest and prestige, but territorial gains can disappear at the treaty table. At the end of the century, will the British rule an empire on which the sun never sets? Or will France light the way for the world, as the superpower of the Sun King's dreams or the republic of Lafayette's?

Students work at the excavation site at Eckley Miners' Village.
An intact pipe bowl found at the dig site.
Through July 10, an archaeological field school sponsored by the University of Maryland will be conducting archeological excavations at Eckley Miners' Village.
Eckley Miners' Village, a PHMC historic site in Luzerne County preserving the buildings and interpreting the lives of anthracite miners, has been an active site for more than 160 years.
This is the fourth year that the archaeology team, led by Paul Shackel, a professor at the University of Maryland, will be working in northeastern Pennsylvania.
The archeology is focusing on Back Street, where the new immigrants tended to settle and live as they pursued economic stability. Camille Westmont, a PhD student at the University of Maryland, will be using the results of these excavations for her dissertation research.
Students participating in the excavations come from the region and as far as Arizona.
Excavations are open to the public and also will be accessible during Patchtown Days on June 27 and 28.
The dig is near the slate picker's house. The public is welcome to visit the excavation site and see what the crew is finding.
Eckley is located in Foster Township, Luzerne County, 10 miles east of downtown Hazleton and three miles south of Freeland.
For more information, call the village at 570-636-2070, visit www.eckleyminersvillage.com or Facebook.

La Llavina és una masia de Montseny (Vallès Oriental) inclosa a l'Inventari del Patrimoni Arquitectònic de Catalunya.

Descripció
És un conjunt format per tres cossos que tanquen el barri. S'ha de remarcar l'adaptació al terreny inclinat. Presenta moltes restauracions de diferents èpoques. La part més antiga, sense arrebossar, té algunes finestres amb llinda de fusta. Les teulades són a dues vessants, el cos central és asimètric en relació al seu carener i té una escala exterior que comunica amb el primer pis.

Història
Es té constància d'un Bernat, l'any 1515, el cognom del qual no està paleogràficament assegurat, podia ser Línia o Linina, que possiblement estaria relacionat amb l'actual Llavina.

Actualment s'està mesurant la possibilitat de fer un pantà que portaria el mateix nom, uns centenars de metres més al fons de la vall.

Happy Easter Everyone! Mountain View will be closed on Good Friday (April 19) and we'll be open for our regular hours on Saturday and Easter Monday. Easter is a wonderful time to get together & celebrate with those you love. Here are a few tips from the team at Mountain View to help make your festivities fun & safe.
Chocolate - Chocolate contains a substance, theobromine, which can be toxic to pets. Baking chocolate has the highest amount of theobromine, followed by semi-sweet, dark, milk and chocolate-flavored treats. Chocolate toxicity in pets lead to vomiting, diarrhea, seizures, increased heart rates with abnormal rhythms and can lead to death. If your pet eats chocolate please call your veterinarian and they can help you decide if the amount consumed is a concern.
Raisins (Baked goods such as Hot Cross Buns) - Researchers don't yet understand why grapes and raisins are toxic to pets. We do know that not all dogs and cats who eat raisins and grapes develop life-threatening kidney failure, however it isn't worth the risk. A very little amount of grapes or raisins can lead to kidney failure and possible death.
Lilies - Lillies are beautiful and are a great sign of Spring, but if you have cats, don't have lilies. Even a few bites on their leaves or a small amount of pollen from a lily can be potentially fatal to cats. Be careful with Daffodils too, because they can cause tummy upset in dogs and cats.
Table Scraps and Bones - Ham or poultry bones can cause intestinal blockages, high-fat foods like gravy can cause pancreatitis, stuffing can have seasonings (e.g. sage, garlic, onion powder) which are toxic, bread dough can rise in their stomachs and cause life-threatening problems, and onions can destroy red blood cells potentially causing anemia. Want to offer them a treat? Your veterinarian will have a wide assortment of healthy and tasty treats.
Decorations - Both dogs and cats love the plastic grass used as bedding in Easter baskets and ribbons which they can bat-around and carry in their mouths. But if swallowed, they can lead to an obstructed digestive tract, severe vomiting, dehydration and possible surgery. Recovering from abdominal surgery is no way for your pet to spend Easter!
Quiet Time - A large gathering of family and friends can be overwhelming to your pet (especially cats!), make sure that they have a quiet retreat should the noise and celebration be too much for them.
On behalf of the team at Mountain View, have a wonderful - and safe - holiday!

Topic 16.3 Phytochrome Effects on Ion Fluxes
Phytochrome can rapidly alter the properties of membranes. We have already seen that low-fluence red light is required before the dark period to induce rapid leaflet closure during nyctinasty, and that fluxes of K+ and Cl– into and out of extensor and flexor cells mediate the response. However, the rapidity of leaf closure in the dark (lag time about 5 minutes) would seem to rule out mechanisms based on gene expression. Instead, rapid phytochrome-induced changes in membrane permeability and transport appear to be involved.
The role of the plasma membrane proton pump in Samanea pulvini (the structures at the base of the petiole that include the extensor and flexor cells) was studied by use of a proton-sensitive liquid membrane electrode (Lee and Satter 1988, 1989). During phytochrome-mediated leaflet closure, the apoplastic pH of the flexor cells (the cells that swell during leaflet closure) decreased, while the apoplastic pH of the extensor cells (the cells that shrink during leaflet closure) increased. Thus, the plasma membrane H+ pump of the flexor cells appears to be activated by darkness (provided that phytochrome is in the Pfr form), whereas the H+ pump of the extensor cells appears to be deactivated under the same conditions.
Increased H+ pump activity on the plasma membranes of the flexor cells should increase the membrane potential, thereby allowing more K+ to enter the cells (see textbook Chapter 6). Conversely, a reduction in the plasma membrane H+ pump activity in the extensor cells would promote the loss of K+ ions. Consistent with this model, the reverse pattern of apoplastic pH change was seen during leaflet opening.
Studies have also been carried out on phytochrome regulation of K+ channels. Since it is difficult to study membrane channels in the intact pulvinus, Richard Crain and his colleagues at the University of Connecticut isolated protoplasts (cells without their cell walls) of both extensor and flexor cells from Samanea leaves (Kim et al. 1993). They determined the open or closed state of the K+ channels indirectly by measuring the membrane potential changes that occurred when the extracellular K+ concentration was raised from 20 to 200 mM. When the extracellular K+ concentration was raised, K+ entered the protoplasts and depolarized the membrane potential only if the K+ channels were open. When the extensor and flexor protoplasts were transferred to constant darkness, the state of the K+ channels exhibited a circadian rhythmicity during a 21-hour incubation period and the two cell types varied reciprocally, just as they do in vivo. That is, when the extensor K+ channels were open, the flexor K+ channels were closed, and vice versa. Thus, the circadian rhythm of leaf movements has its origins in the circadian rhythm of K+ channel opening.
To test the effects of phytochrome on K+ channels, researchers first treated protoplasts with white light, then exposed them to a brief pulse of either red light alone or red light followed by far-red light and transferred them to continuous darkness. Red light caused the K+ channels of the flexor protoplasts to open, and far-red light reversed the effect of red light. The extensor protoplasts were closed by both treatments. In contrast to red light, blue light caused the K+ channels of the extensors to open, and those of the flexors to close. Thus, phytochrome seems to regulate specifically the K+ channels of the flexor cells. Blue light regulates primarily the extensor cells, although it can also affect the flexors at specific times of day (Kim et al. 1993).
On the basis of the evidence thus far, we can conclude that phytochrome brings about leaflet closure by regulating the activities of the primary proton pumps and/or the K+ channels of the flexor and extensor cells. Although the effect is rapid, it is not instantaneous, and it is therefore unlikely to be due to a direct effect of phytochrome on the membrane. Instead, phytochrome acts indirectly via one or more signal transduction pathways, as in the case of the regulation of gene expression by phytochrome.
However, some effects of red and far-red light on the membrane potential are so rapid that phytochrome may also interact directly with the membrane. Such rapid modulation has been measured in individual cells and has been inferred from the effects of red and far-red light on the surface potential of roots and oat (Avena) coleoptiles. The lag between the production of Pfr and the onset of measurable potential changes varies from organism to organism; for example, it is about 1.7 s for depolarization (inside becomes less negative relative to outside the plasma membrane) in the giant alga Nitella and 4.5 s for hyperpolarization in Avena.
Changes in the bioelectric potential of cells imply changes in the flux of ions across the plasma membrane. The Mougeotia microbeam irradiation experiments of Haupt (see Web Topic 16.1) seemed to support the idea that phytochrome is localized on the plasma membrane, and membrane isolation studies carried out in the 1970s provided evidence that a small portion of the total phytochrome is tightly bound to various organellar membranes.
These findings led some workers to suggest that membrane-bound phytochrome represents the physiologically active fraction, and that all the effects of phytochrome on gene expression are initiated by changes in membrane permeability. On the basis of sequence analysis, however, it is now clear that phytochrome is a hydrophilic protein without membrane-spanning domains. The current view is that phytochrome in Mougeotia is associated with microtubules located directly beneath the plasma membrane.
If phytochrome exerts its effects on membranes from some distance, no matter how small, involvement of a "second messenger" would be implied. For example, rapid changes in cytosolic free calcium have been implicated as second messengers in several signal transduction pathways, and there is evidence that calcium plays a role in chloroplast rotation in Mougeotia (see Web Topic 16.1). More recently, however, the role of calcium as a second messenger in phytochrome action has been questioned, so calcium-independent mechanisms may also be involved.

While most collegiate athletes have the summer off from competition to train and practice, the summer season is in full swing for Marquette's golfers, who were in action this week at the Wisconsin State Amateur Championship.
Rising senior Zach Gaugert entered the final round with a 2-stroke lead, but shot a 6-over-par 78 on Thursday to finish tied for fifth. Teammate and fellow rising senior Patrick Sanchez shot even par in rounds 3 and 4 to finish at 6-over-par and finish tied for second in the tournament.
Sanchez's finish was a vast improvement from his 2014 Amateur Championship performance, in which tied for 47th with a 27-over-par. The BIG EAST Player of the Year is coming off a second-place finish at the BIG EAST Championship and an NCAA Regional Round appearance.
Mathew Bachman, a rising senior at Sheboygan Falls High School and verbal commit to Marquette also impressed, and finished tied for second with Sanchez. Bachman shot a 2-under 70 in the final round, including birdies on Nos. 14, 15 and 17.
University of Wisconsin incoming freshman Eddie Wajda won the championship at 5-over-par.
The 114th Amateur Championship was held at Erin Hills Golf Course in Erin, Marquette's home course and site of the 2017 U.S. Open Championship. The players were not affiliated with Marquette and represented their home golf clubs, though many of the players were wearing blue and gold on Thursday.
Rising senior Nick Nelson finished tied for 12th, incoming freshman Charlie Maleki finished tied for 20th and rising junior Henry Klongland ended the tournament tied for 25th.
Sanchez will next play the 2015 Western Amateur from August 3 through 8 in Sugar Grove, Ill., according to Marquette Athletics. Gaugert will play in the 2015 U.S. Amateur Open from August 17 through 23 at Olympia Fields Country Club in Olympia Fields, Ill., which will be broadcast on FOX and FOX Sports 1.
The Golden Eagles will return to Erin Hills October 4 through 6 when they host the Erin Hills Intercollegiate.

Based on the results of the conference, this report examines the EU-NATO cooperation in relation to Ukraine with the aim of further embedding the country's security.
Preparing for a New Blueprint in EU-Turkey Relations?
Samuel Doveri Vesterbye, ENC's Managing Director, wrote an article on deteriorating EU-Turkey relations.
Turkey's EU accession has lost its significance over the past decade. Today, distorted incentive mechanisms govern relations between Ankara and Brussels, often altering rational policymaking. It is in the interest of both sides that existing structures remain in place until better ones replace or complement them. In the meantime, change is necessary to correct outdated structures that encourage rivalry, and turn bilateral and multilateral relations with Turkey into uncalculated time bombs. Although migration and counter-terrorism play an important role, a new blueprint for a sustainable partnership necessitate a wider scope, including business support, trust, and respect for each sides' priorities. A reformed Customs Union, energy cooperation, and coordination on geo-regional foreign policy areas like Iraq may prove useful.

'Wednesday' Surpasses 'Stranger Things 4' as Most-Watched English Series in a Week
Netflix's most recent scripted series Wednesday has surpassed Stranger Things season 4 as the most-watched English-language series in a week in Netflix history, the company announced Tuesday.
According to Netflix, fans watched over 341.2 million hours of the first season of Wednesday, which premiered on November 23 and is about Wednesday Addams and the Addams family.
After the first batch of episodes from the current season of the sci-fi series were published in June, Netflix users broke the streaming service's previous record by viewing over 335 million hours of Stranger Things 4 in a single week.
Stranger Things 4 continues to be the most-watched Netflix English-language series in its first 28 days, with 1.35 billion hours viewed.
1.65 trillion That's how many hours Squid Game was seen on Netflix in its first 28 days last year, making it the most-watched series on the site during that time period overall.
This year saw the release of half of the top ten most-watched English-language shows on Netflix in 28 days. Stranger Things 4 was joined on the list by DAHMER: Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story (856.2 million hours viewed), Bridgerton's second season (656.2 million hours watched), Inventing Anna (555.1 million hours watched), and Ozark's fourth season (491 million hours watched). While Netflix had record traffic this year, it also lost customers for the first time in ten years, with more than 1 million individuals abandoning the streaming service in the first six months of the year, though it has since recovered.
Wednesday stars Jenna Ortega as the titular Addams family daughter, Morticia, and Luis Guzman as Gomez, when she enters boarding school.

As the world's population grows, natural hazards and climate risk threaten the health, safety and livelihoods of more people than ever. Poor communities are both the most vulnerable to the effects of disasters, environmental degradation and climate risk and the least well equipped to manage these challenges.
Focusing on disaster-prone regions, we partner with organisations that support people in such communities in their efforts to prevent and prepare for natural catastrophes, adopt climate-friendly practices and adapt to a changing environment. We also fund emergency aid in severe catastrophes.


This is the story of Hadassah Jensen, a Jewish woman, who fought to survive Ravensbruck and the Holocaust --- a story of a woman whose innocence was shattered by unspeakable acts of horror.
This is one of the most achingly sad books I've ever read about the Holocaust - just heartwrenching. It's a story you'll not soon forget. I highly recommend - a remarkable read!
