The Matt Signal Beyond: Epilogue (Justice League Unlimited)
Plot summary: 15 years after the events of the series, Terry McGinnis makes the staggering discovery that he is the biological son of Bruce Wayne.
Episode Title: 'Epilogue'
Original Air Date: July 23rd, 2005
Directed: Dan Riba (14)
Written: Dwayne McDuffie (1) & Bruce Timm (2) (story)
After the lacklustre finale of Batman Beyond (either 'Unmasked' or 'Countdown' depending on your perspective), Bruce Timm wanted to give the show a proper send-off, and used this episode of Justice League Unlimited to do it, as sales of Return of the Joker were too low to get the green light on a second movie.
It recycles some ideas conceived for the original pitch for what would become Return of the Joker, in which Selina Kyle would have created a clone of Bruce Wayne she raised as a son and set on Terry.
The title doesn't just refer to closing the book on Beyond, but was originally meant to be the final part of the entire DCAU, as Justice League Unlimited was not expected to get a third season, and these are chronologically the last events depicted.
To that end, Terry's silhouette moving across buildings and spooking the pilots of a police aircraft is a direct mirroring of the first shot of the first episode of BTAS, 'On Leather Wings', with Kevin Conroy even providing identical dialogue for both as one of the cops.
All of the scenes in black and white were later confirmed by the creators to have been imagined by Terry.
I have alluded to The Big Thing several times throughout the show. Well, this was it. Terry is Bruce's son, something hinted at (intentionally or not) in episodes 'The Call Part II', 'Inqueling', 'Disappearing Inque' and many more.
15 years after the end of Batman Beyond, Terry McGinnis (sans Batsuit) breaks into the compound of an elderly Amanda Waller. She offers him tea and even hits on him, but he's not in the mood.
In a series of flashbacks, he smashes his way into the Batcave to confront a decrepit Bruce Wayne, breaks up with Dana for good, and quits the JLU after helping battle a cadre of villains, claiming "Batman is dead."
Terry tells Waller he "figured it all out" after proving to be a perfect histocompatibility match with Bruce when he needed a new kidney despite 111/1 odds.
In another flashback, he bickers more with Bruce, saying that while his father wasn't a superhero, he loved him all the same, but all of that has been taken from him as he has just discovered… Bruce is his father!!!!!
Flashback Bruce responds coldly, claiming it's a good thing Terry is essentially his clone, and that the world always needs a Batman. Terry leaves him on the floor grasping for his pills.
Amanda Waller challenges Terry's harsh words about Bruce, offering to tell him a story from 65 years ago to try and change his mind.
Batman and the Justice League battled an incarnation of The Royal Flush Gang formed by the uber-powerful telepath, Ace. Amanda Waller warns them that her powers have evolved to the point she can manipulate reality… and that she's days away from a fatal aneurism that could kill thousands.
Bruce volunteers to resolve the problem, accepting that it means killing Ace. He confronts her alone but refuses to kill her, instead sitting with her and holding her hand until she dies peacefully.
Waller claims this encounter convinced her to move to the side of the heroes and after years of working alongside Bruce and seeing him begin to age, she enacted 'Project Batman Beyond'.
Using Bruce's DNA and some freaky nanotech, she found a couple whose psychological profiles matched Thomas and Martha Wayne and during a 'flu shot', overwrote Warren McGinnis' "reproductive material" with Bruce's.
Not stopping there, Waller ordered Andrea Beaumont aka The Phantasm to murder Terry's parents to replicate Bruce's own circumstances. Andrea couldn't go through with it and told Waller that Batman would never resort to murder to achieve his goals, convincing her to abandon the project.
She makes arguments for free will and that he is Bruce's son, not his clone, and that while he isn't as smart as his father, his heart is as big or bigger. She leaves, telling him if he wants a better life than Bruce's, he has to choose it.
Returning to Wayne Manor, Terry calls Dana to confirm their upcoming dinner plans, holding an engagement ring in his hand and smiling.
Bruce arrives to tell him off for going AWOL. Terry helps him with his pills and assures him he will always be here for Gotham. He chuckles about being as stubborn as his father, and then departs to offer consultation on a case with Superman.
CCH Pounder was consistently pitch perfect as Amanda Waller in JL/JLU, and casually waltzes in here to run rings around Will Friedle (who is legitimately great slipping back into his role after four years). He broke into her house in the middle of the night, filled with rage, and she just finds him amusing. And sexy. Gently teasing Terry while he's going through the biggest existential crisis of his life, offering him tea and telling him stories is great stuff, but the main event is how matter-of-factly she reveals the gruesome details of her grand plan. Top notch stuff, and she follows it up with some wanky words about determinism before going back to bed. All while doing a commendable job of playing a woman in her 90s. Bravo.
Kevin Conroy also rises to the challenge of tacking an additional 15 years onto his Old Man Bruce voice, especially given he has to have an emotional argument while doing it. Terry's imagined version of him is venomous, and Conroy absolutely nails the brief, making you hate DC's most beloved hero for a few minutes. He and Friedle's back and forth gets time to breath and they deliver a fantastic scene. Softening back up for the ending and becoming a bit of a nag was an unexpectedly fun twist too.
Every time I mention Dana, it's to say how underutilised she is, and that's still true here, but I'm glad Lauren Tom got to come back. She slightly aged up her voice too because she's a pro.
(Move the slider to compare the first and intended final shots of BTAS)
This is one of the most bizarre episodes of television you're likely to encounter, given it serves as a series finale for Batman Beyond despite airing as the final episode of the second season of Justice League Unlimited, a season that was intended to be the last.
Anyways, FUCK this idea. Spending three seasons and a movie proving that Terry was his own man and every bit as worthy of The Cowl only to turn around and make him a Fated Golden Chosen One, genetically predisposed to become Batman, is such a slap in the face, firmly taking the side of nature over nurture.
To some people, Terry could never be Bruce's equal, benefitting from the advanced Batsuit and having his predecessor coaching him in his ear and solving some of the puzzles for him. Those people must have loved this, as it protects the idea of Bruce as an absolute singular entity. To me that's incredibly dull. My favourite thing about this show is the idea that Terry could succeed as Batman and do it with a smile on his face, with a social circle of healthy relationships (albeit ones tested by his absences). He always refused to accept Bruce's childish idea that the only way to be Batman was to withdraw from humanity and be a pouty little grump. They had this idea long before the episode got made, so it's possible the good writers from the show were aware of it or even helped conceive it, which is just such a huge bummer.
While I won't completely discount the big reveal from how I assess this as an episode of television, we should look beyond it before delivering a final ranking. It's pretty difficult to overlook how messy the black and white scenes make things, even if the visual indication and context clues do clarify that none of them are real. The clock was never broken, Dana and Terry are still together, and Bruce is way harsher than even his most dickish DCAU moments. That last one is pretty psychologically telling for Terry, actually, as it's where the debate about the title of Batman being a gift or a curse originates: entirely in his own head. Still, on my first watch (and a cursory glance of the internet shows many felt the same), it was somewhat jarring. All of the little vignettes are well written and performed, and I don't really have a better suggestion for how to clean everything up, but they are what they are. I did enjoy the episode more on a second viewing though.
In terms of how it acts as the closing chapter of the DCAU, it's pretty fun. Bringing back a trio of Beyond villains, The JLU, The Phantasm, The Royal Flush Gang and even evoking Return of the Joker when talking about the possibility of overwriting someone's DNA, were all nice nods. But my favourite details were Dana's tiny subplot (aware of Terry's secret and willing to accept the risks), Terry going to see a Grey Ghost movie (presumably after Bruce helped with his comeback) with his parents and of course making the final shot a perfect mirror of the first one from BTAS, the genesis of the entire DCAU. Them getting a third season of JLU after that perfect symbolic ending is maddening. I'm unsure how I feel about them saying "Batman Beyond" out loud in the show.
So yeah, there's an awful lot to process, some of it philosophically objectionable, some of it cute and respectful to legacy. The dialogue is of a very high quality, which I would attribute to McDuffie, versus the Big Decisions that almost certainly came from Bruce Timm. It's also unavoidable that it looks SO much better than any iteration of BTAS from an animation standpoint (if not an art design one). Seeing Terry kick ass without his costume at the beginning hints at the 15 unseen years of experience making him an even greater hero, and I like that it ends with him finally finding some sense of internal peace but continuing to be Batman, with his detective skills respected by Superman.

Amanda Waller (CCH Pounder) (first appearance)
One of the biggest thorns in the side of the Justice League, there's some irony in some of Waller's most monstrous actions occurring after she made peace with them. Even if it comes from a place of admiration for Batman, and even if she didn't fully go through with her plan and ends up being nice to Terry… Project Batman Beyond is still incredibly messed up.
Taking Bruce's DNA and altering Warren McGinnis', both without consent, and then planning to freakin' assassinate Terry's parents to see if it would make him become Batman is demonic. That it took killer-for-hire Andrea Beaumont to make her drop the idea speaks volumes.
Waller is a great antagonist in JL/JLU, because there are few forces more evil than the US Government, and her callous indifference to her misdeeds exemplifies the whole concept. What really makes her any different to Lex Luthor and any of the other villains who think they're doing what's best for humanity? Nothing. She may be a funny old lady sassing Terry, but she's still one of the worst people in the whole show, so unlike the other villains below, she's getting ranked.
Inque/Shriek/Stalker/Parasite (fifth/fourth/third/first appearance)
'The Iniquity Collective' should clearly have included Spellbinder and Curare if it was going to be the Batman Beyond All-Stars. Or just Inque and some new designs for classic Justice League foes if it was meant to be a Legion of Doom/Secret Society type deal.
Either way, it was nice to give the returning trio a little final nod, but they all get their asses kicked relatively quickly. Given the circumstances, I won't adjust any of their rankings.
The Royal Flush Gang (Hynden Walch) ('fourth' appearance)
This is obviously not the same version we saw throughout the series so just like the above group, it won't count towards their ranking, but given the impact their appearance has on the continuity, I still wanted to give them a shout out.
Bruce named his damn dog after Ace! That is adorable! Every single time he's appeared I've had that in the back of my head and looked forward to reaching this episode. To fully appreciate this touching moment between them, you need to see the Justice League episodes 'Wild Cards', in which the two bonded.
Anyway, she's basically Professor X in Logan, and empowered the rest of the gang, who are are mute, with wildly different powers and tongue in cheek appearances, but are still pretty fun.

At Arlington Pediatric Dentistry, we strive to provide high quality dental care to children in the Arlington area while maintaining a fun, friendly, and welcoming office environment. Our doctors and highly trained team of pediatric dental specialists work hard to design personalized treatment plans that perfectly suit each patient's unique dental needs, and make every patient feel at home each time they come to the office. With years of experience treating kids in the Arlington area, we have the skills and the knowledge to make very visit a pleasant experience for all involved - even the youngest ones!
By far, the most common place for a cavity in your child's mouth is the chewing surfaces of the rear molars. Why? It's not hard to figure out: just run your teeth over your molars and feel the rough, uneven chewing surfaces. These are filled with nooks, crannies, and crevices that make ideal hiding spots for bacteria and hot spots for dental decay. These areas are difficult to clean with a tooth brush, and a child's newly erupted permanent teeth aren't as resistant to decay as an adult's teeth – creating the perfect storm for causing cavities!
Thankfully, there's an exciting new solution that's extremely effective in preventing cavities in children's rear molars: dental sealants. These are thin, invisible coatings of resin applied to teeth that smooth out and seal off the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, making them far more resistant to decay, less likely to develop painful cavities, and less likely to need expensive procedures.
First we'll examine the tooth and remove any existing decay.
Next, we'll clean and dry the tooth.
We'll apply a solution to subtly roughen up the tooth surface, allowing the sealant to adhere better.
We'll dry and rinse the tooth once more.
Finally, we'll paint on the sealant, which, with the help of a curing light, will harden within a minute.
A small note on BPA: a 2012 study that got a lot of press coverage raised concerns over trace amounts of bisphenol-A (BPA) found in some (but not all) of the resins used in sealants that might cause behavioral problems in children. The authors noted that while they had found an association, they hadn't actually proven that BPA in sealants causes any problems - and in fact, BPA is much more prevalent in food and beverage packaging than in dental materials. Since then, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Dental Association have reaffirmed their support for sealants as a safe, effective way to prevent cavities. As always, we're more than happy to answer any questions you have on the subject.
While more protected, sealed teeth still require the same conscientious hygiene as unsealed teeth. Your child should still brush and floss daily, and continue visiting us for regular professional cleanings. During these appointments, we'll check on the sealants, which will last up to 10 years. With sealants, your child will experience up to 70% less tooth decay than if they hadn't had the procedure!
Have more questions about sealants or want to come in for a consultation? We're happy to help! Feel free to call us at 703-671-5437, reach out to us at our contact page, or use our easy online form to schedule an appointment at our Arlington, VA office. We can't wait to hear from you, and we look forward to helping your child achieve a beautiful, healthy, lifelong smile.

The President of the Republic ordered during the last Council of Ministers the renewal of the maritime transport fleet through the acquisition of new ships, he enjoined in this context, the first person in charge of the sector to draw up an exhaustive report of the sector and to submit it to the next meeting of the Government. He also asked to prepare the implementing texts relating to the increase in wages, retirement pensions and unemployment benefits as well as the entry into force of the specifications governing the activities of car manufacturers and dealers. .
The Minister of Finance reported new measures in As part of the presentation of the 2023 finance bill, this concerns, among other things, the penalty imposed on investors to reinvest 30% of the amounts resulting from tax exemptions, namely those applied to company profits ( IBS) and the tax on professional activity (TAP) granted under the business support schemes.
The text also provides, he explained, the reduction of tax burdens, concerning the tax on vehicles for transporting company personnel and the exemption of fishing cooperatives and approved federations from the IBS.
In addition, the bill proposes to submit individuals with a turnover of less than 5 million Dinars to a single flat-rate tax (IFU) of 5% regardless of the nature of the activity.
Regarding the actions that could be deployed by the tax administration, with a view to capturing and identifying part of the underground economy and encouraging its migration to the formal sector, the Minister of Finance reported a proposal adapting a ceiling for the payment of tax deductions through banking channels for fees reaching 1 million Dinars. Such procedures, he indicated, also make it possible to reduce the risks that may result from the use of counterfeit banknotes and to absorb used banknotes. The PLF provides, in this context, for a review of the fines applied to offenses related to indirect tax payments
With regard to the withholding tax applicable on goods intended for resale in the state currently set at 2%, it will eventually be increased to 4%.
In the component relating to the importation of vehicles, the bill proposed the facilitation of the importation of tourist vehicles less than three years old, and this, by removing the condition to limit this importation fixed to only once every three year.
In the field of foreign trade, according to the text of the law, tax exemptions will be extended to import operations of hybrid and electric vehicles, and the authorization of the import and customs clearance of agricultural equipment. less than 5 years old.
ATunder tax incentives and incentive measures investment for the benefit of operators engaged in petro-gas activities, the draft text of the finance law has provided for exemptions relating to value added tax (VAT) and duties, taxes and fees due to services customs.
Algeria is moving towards the creation of a real industry, with integration rate of up to 40% during the first five years of the launch of industrial activity, particularly in the mechanical engineering and automotive industry sectors. In order to achieve this objective, it is reported the establishment of a new system including incentive measures including exemption from customs duties and value added tax (VAT) on components and materials raw materials imported or acquired locally by subcontractors and producers as part of their activities. Speaking on the sidelines of the organization of the international subcontracting fair which recorded the participation of more than 90 national and foreign companies, the Minister of Industry indicated that his sector aspires to increase the GDP from 6 to 15% through the creation of a base of subcontractors capable of guaranteeing the development of industrial sectors.
Driven by the performance of several sectors, the Minister of Finances indicated that the growth rate in Algeria should record an upward trend by 2025, thus providing for a rate which should be around 4.1% for the year 2023, at 4.4% for 2024 and 4.6% in 2025.
He also pointed out that the agriculture sector should experience a growth rate of 6.9% in 2023, 5.5% in 2024 and 5.7% in 2025, while that of Industry should record a rate of 8.5% in 2023, then 9.6% in 2024 and 9.3 in 2025. The Buildings and Public Works (BTP) sector, for its part, should register a growth rate of around 5.6% in 2023, 3.9 in 2024 and 4.5% in 2025.

Deep sequencing reveals mixed infection with 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) virus strains and the emergence of oseltamivir resistance

Biology and Genomics
Mixed infections with seasonal influenza A virus strains are a common occurrence and an important source of genetic diversity. Prolonged viral shedding, as observed in immunocompromised individuals, can lead to mutational accumulation over extended periods. Recently, drug resistance was reported in immunosuppressed patients infected with the 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) virus within a few days after oseltamivir treatment was initiated. To better understand the evolution and emergence of drug resistance in these circumstances, we used a deep sequencing approach to survey the viral population from an immunosuppressed patient infected with H1N1/2009 influenza and treated with neuraminidase inhibitors. This patient harbored 3 genetic variants from 2 phylogenetically distinct viral clades of pandemic H1N1/2009, strongly suggestive of mixed infection. Strikingly, one of these variants also developed drug resistance de novo in response to oseltamivir treatment. Immunocompromised individuals may, therefore, constitute an important source of genetic and phenotypic diversity, both through mixed infection and de novo mutation.

N2 - Mixed infections with seasonal influenza A virus strains are a common occurrence and an important source of genetic diversity. Prolonged viral shedding, as observed in immunocompromised individuals, can lead to mutational accumulation over extended periods. Recently, drug resistance was reported in immunosuppressed patients infected with the 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) virus within a few days after oseltamivir treatment was initiated. To better understand the evolution and emergence of drug resistance in these circumstances, we used a deep sequencing approach to survey the viral population from an immunosuppressed patient infected with H1N1/2009 influenza and treated with neuraminidase inhibitors. This patient harbored 3 genetic variants from 2 phylogenetically distinct viral clades of pandemic H1N1/2009, strongly suggestive of mixed infection. Strikingly, one of these variants also developed drug resistance de novo in response to oseltamivir treatment. Immunocompromised individuals may, therefore, constitute an important source of genetic and phenotypic diversity, both through mixed infection and de novo mutation.

Don't you love how you can find boats almost anywhere!
Une porte très bien sculptée et originale.
Never miss a boat Friday! Good catch!
Ginnie Hart: Sometimes I miss the boat, Bonnie, but I try not to miss the Friday. HA! Thanks.
Ginnie Hart: I so agree with you, Marie. Merci.
Ginnie Hart: Many kind thanks, Pascale. Merci.
Ginnie Hart: Thanks, Chris. Astrid and I were mentioning the other day that when you and Chad come back, we'll have to take you to this sand sculpture place.
This was a total surprise when we exited. Somebody had fun designing this, Ginnie. Love the processing here.
Ginnie Hart: It really was a surprise, Astrid, and fun for Boat Friday. It really makes me want to keep my eyes open everywhere we go, wondering how much I still miss! Bedankt.
Ginnie Hart: Thanks, Rob. It's fun to find the unexpected, isn't it.
Fine vessels, too. Someone had some vision when designing the exit from the exhibit.
Ginnie Hart: I thought so, too, Alan. You just never know when they'll pop up.
You are so right, especially in Nederland!
Ginnie Hart: It does help if you're in a place surrounded by water, Philine!
It is an interesting thought Ginnie, but you are right, we just have to open our eyes.
Ginnie Hart: For as long as we've had Boat Friday on SC, Chad, I have a feeling we all have our eyes open for the unexpected boat, right?
Ginnie Hart: It made my day, Bill. Thanks.
Ginnie Hart: It was fun to see, JP.
Ginnie Hart: I think that's true for most turnstiles, Elaine, so it's fun when someone gets creative. Thanks.
Wat een prachtig en origineel hek is dit.
Ginnie Hart: It's fun to see creative work like this, Marjolein, beyond the usual. Bedankt.
That is because you have you eye in, Ginnie. Well done!
Ginnie Hart: Most kind of you, Lisl. Thanks.
Ginnie Hart: It's fun, Andy, isn't it! Thanks.
Love your point of view. The way the light shows the 3d nature of this art.
Ginnie Hart: Thank you, Ruthie. It's fun.
It is a great masted beauty too. Very nice, G.
Ginnie Hart: I loved the surprise of it, Mary. Thanks.
Someone had great imagination, Ginnie. Lucky you to come across it.
Ginnie Hart: I agree, Beverly, and thanks.
Beautiful sculpture, indeed! I love how the sails of the boat really "pop" here! Have a fantabulous weekend, Ginnie!
that is a very good point, Ginnie. and being very close to the Maas river, i too see them.... everyday!
Ginnie Hart: That means you and I have no excuse, Ayush, right??
That's rather clever isn't it.
Ginnie Hart: I thought so, Brian!
Ginnie Hart: It's always fun to see what we see, Willy, especially when unexpected. Bedankt.
This gate is very appropriate to the type exhibition. You can make an artful exit.
Ginnie Hart: HA! And so we did, Louis.
Ginnie Hart: Sometimes I bump into them, Larry.
Lots of original and creative ideas in Netherlands.
Ginnie Hart: That's what I'm always discovering, Sheila!

The storage units for the electricity generated in this process are housed easily accessible in the striking side skirts. The Ener-G-Force emits nothing but water, has an operating range of about 800 kilometres and as a result truly is a green car.

Alabama state law requires every motorboat operator to be licensed before operating a boat on Alabama waters. The successful completion of a state-approved Boating Safety Education Course is required before you can become licensed.
No one under the age of 12 is permitted to operate a motorized vessel on Alabama waters.
Although boaters who are 12 or 13 years old must obtain their Boater Education Certificate, they may not operate a motorboat alone. A person at least 21 years old, who has their Boat Operator's license on their person, must be on board and in a position to take immediate control of the vessel, if necessary.
Any license holder who is 14 years old or older is permitted to operate a watercraft unaccompanied.
Non-residents who boat on Alabama waters more than 45 days per calendar year must take the course to get a non-resident boater's license.
Boaters born before April 28, 1954. (exempt from taking the course but must still get a boater's license).
Alabama Marine Police Division-approved boating course, Boat Alabama, which is a classroom course.
Non-residents who hold a NASBLA approved boating education certification or license from their home state may use that in lieu of obtaining an Alabama Non-Resident Vessel Operator's license.
You can also take the course in a classroom setting. Click Here for a sample schedule of classes offered in Alabama.
As a boat operator you have a responsibility to keep up-to-date with new boating laws and safety information. In addition to knowing the changes in Alabama, you must also be aware of the rules in the states where you plan on boating. A data base of all courses approved by NASBLA can be found here.

Love Letters to California
It's been a long week, so this morning I'm offering a little serotonin boost to carry us into the weekend.
Last month, in honor of Valentine's Day, I asked you to submit love letters to your corner of California. You emailed me dozens of charming tributes to Santa Cruz, Aliso Viejo, Glendale, Sausalito and more.
I was able to publish only a handful, but today I'm back with another round. Your odes are heartfelt and goofy and, frankly, they prove that love really can be blind. Enjoy.
"When I moved to Long Beach from Philadelphia more than a decade ago, I thought SoCal would never feel like home. I missed the sense of history and the distinct seasons that characterize Philly. Stuck in traffic on the 405, I even missed SEPTA. Over the years, however, I have come to appreciate much about Long Beach — especially the birds. Most mornings, my son and I wake up to a cacophony of wild parrots that frequent the tall palm trees near our house. Spotting the pair of peacocks that wander around our neighborhood is a favorite pastime. And I find true joy in watching the hummingbirds hover outside our dining room windows while I work from home these days." — Gwen Shaffer, Long Beach
"'Why do you stay there?'
Because I was born here 10 days after Loma Prieta.
My dad poured detergent soap in the fountain by the city limits as a kid.
My mother's mother sighed with delight when she first visited — San Francisco was the closest city in America to her hometown.
Here, my great-grandfather sold suits in ways that were maybe a little sketchy.
Here, I ran into my dad on BART and we did the N.Y.T. crossword together.
Here, I stood and fought eviction and its violence.
And here, I see the ghosts of so much of my family gone, but their presence remains.
Here is home.
Where a mutt and a refugee's daughter who identifies as nothing else identifies as San Francisco's own." — Sarah Hartman, San Francisco
"I LOVE the seasons in San Diego. Yes, the seasons. Being a native, I grew up hearing the transplant residents commiserating, 'There are no seasons here!' as they stood in their driveways, happily donning sunglasses and short sleeves.
They're missing it, I'd think. The changing shadows, the subtle and beautiful shifts in the Chinese oak trees, the brilliant and changing hues in the morning and evening skies, the homey smell of wet neighborhood streets, the ebb and flow of the scents of desert herbs … and so much more." — Sylvia Padilla Sullivan, San Diego
"When I moved from Ohio to Sacramento in 1976, California was suffering from a serious drought that I was not aware of at first. I marveled at day after day of sunshine and blue sky … even into winter! I thought I had moved to Camelot! And now, after all these years and more drought and forest fires, I still think of California as my Camelot." — Mary Kay Goodley, Sacramento
"I'm a Bay Area girl through and through and every part of my life has been indelibly shaped by the long-term love and commitment this Golden State and I have shared. My youngest daughter and I were both born at El Camino Hospital in Mountain View. My closest friends are the very same friends from Kennedy Jr. High, Monta Vista High (go Matadors!), and my college days at U.C. Berkeley. I met the love of my life here (he went to Stanford and the rivalry is real), got married in an epic Indian wedding for the ages here, and our two girls were born here. My parents live here, my bestest friends live here, and my work for over two decades in the nonprofit/education sector has taken place here. Literally and figuratively, California and my heart are inextricably entwined.
And here's what I know to be true — when you can go for walks outside every day, when you can cheer on the incredible sports teams that we are proud to call our own, when during a pandemic you can easily see your loved ones outside and go for hikes amid stunning landscapes and eat delicious meals at incredible restaurants outside on a winter's night … if there is a heaven on earth, it is the Bay Area, and I'm so thankful to have known and to be loved by it." — Aditi Goel, Los Altos

Once full of hope, Oakland cannabis sellers face a harsh reality.
Where we're traveling
Today's tip comes from Luz Consuelo Triana-Echeverría, who lives in Minnesota.
"My favorite place to visit in California is Palm Springs during February or March, when it's still very cold in Minnesota. My boyfriend used to go every year but now that he passed, I still go by myself. We made it a tradition to stay at a hotel with a nice pool where not surprisingly, we meet many Canadians and Minnesotans trying to beat the cold.
One nice trip is to take the Aerial Tramway, where you can appreciate the Chino Canyon as you arrive to the San Jacinto Peak and have lunch at the nice restaurant on top of the mountain. Another day, I drive through Chino, where I always stop at a fig plantation and buy figs for the rest of the year.
On another day, I cannot help but drive through Joshua Tree National Park, where if I'm lucky to be there during the perfect week, my sight is embellished by the presence of wildflowers everywhere. But the most amazing place in Palm Springs is the oasis of California Palms on the San Andreas fault lines. When I'm driving through the desert, it's mesmerizing to see a green area far away. As I get closer, that greenery starts becoming a reality, but once I'm right there, the incredible width and length of the palms are just jaw dropping. Because who would expect to find dense and luxuriant palm trees in the middle of the desert?"

And before you go, some good news
After a major fire swept through Sequoia National Park's Giant Forest six months ago, the famous grove has been either closed or open to visitors on a limited basis.
But park officials recently announced that the Giant Forest — home to five of the largest sequoias on the planet — is once again open seven days a week, The San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Tag: IPL
Entrepreneurs, Cricket, and Mangoes
In April, a business trip to Bangalore led me to extend my stay in the city by a week. I spent it at home, with my parents and sister, eating mangoes and watching IPL on the television (often both at the same time). I met friends at their homes or outside. There was a Kannada play, a Kannada movie, a classical concert, a visit to the National Gallery of Modern Art, and even a live IPL game at the Chinnaswamy stadium.
The city felt more familiar than before. I put this to my previous two visits (less than eight months apart) and to the writing, about the city, I had been engaged in the previous year. Bangalore was changing, but I now had a frame to place the changes in and understand them. Nonetheless, there were surprises.
The gated community my parents lived in now had a system of verifying visitors via an app, MyGate. The app notified you about the visitor at the gate, and also triggered an automated call to your landline. You could approve the visitor either by clicking on the app or by pressing a key on the landline, but one did not exclude the other. The security folks at the gate still relied on the old system of directly calling the apartment: so instead of one simple call from the gate to the apartment, we now had two calls and one app notification. You could ignore the app, but the automated call was persistent. My father, eager for conversation, always responded verbally, trying to engage the automated voice asking the listener to "Press 1 to approve, 2 to reject." He gave up soon, and these calls were picked up by someone else at home.
The apartment's monthly maintenance fee had recently been hiked to eight thousand rupees. Water, delivered to the apartment in water tankers, was the culprit. Bangalore's water crisis and the water-tanker 'mafia' has been widely reported, and on each visit I read more descriptions of the alarming water situation in the city. But the most common response from the middle-class is to buy water from private operators.
"We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters": this is Peter Thiel, a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, bemoaning the nature of present-day innovation. In Bangalore, one wishes for things more basic: water, clean air, good public transportation, garbage-free neighbourhoods. Bangaloreans complain about these matters, but (like people everywhere) they go on with their lives, few engaging in attempts to address them. What excites the young middle-class though is the next new app in town, or the cool new venture of a serial entrepreneur.

When I reach Bangalore, at the end of April, the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket tournament is on. One or two matches each day are broadcast live on TV, and my father follows them all. Early on I'm reluctant to join him. Once an avid follower, I lost touch with cricket after moving to Germany in 2000. I know none of the youngsters playing today. And watching the game's new T20 format — a truncated form of the one-day match, which itself is a shorter version of the gloriously slow-paced five-day match — is like being served a fast-food leftover in place of a five-course meal.
But my father's enthusiasm draws me in. I sit with him for a few overs every match, and then, as the teams and players grow familiar, I begin to watch matches from start to finish.
After all these years the game looks different. The pace is quicker, new rules have emerged, TV commentators sound more relaxed, miniskirted cheer girls have entered cricket stadiums (but are separated, wisely, from the spectators). Players from different countries now play together, as in professional soccer leagues, and watching an Indian player spur on his Australian teammate makes you wonder why they didn't think of this before.
I've heard of politics entering cricket, but watching both cricket and politics on TV I find that they borrow from each other, and the metaphors sometimes cross over. A cricket commentator speaks of a "Modi Free Hit", an election analyst announces the "Man of the Match" from BJP.
Early in the visit there is a pooja at home. A fire ceremony to ritually mark my father's 70th birthday. Five priests arrive at 9 am, carrying several rangoli colours, apples, oranges, bananas, mangoes, coconuts, rice, mats to sit on, a portrait of Adi Shankaracharya, a metal vessel to contain the fire, and other paraphernalia. They look young, all in their forties, and seem modern. When the pooja is on, mantras and shlokas from the main priest holding us in a trance, two of his colleagues sit texting on their smartphones. One also urges me to click photos during the ceremony, and offers to take a few himself.
After pooja the caterers carry in the dishes for lunch. We've given cooking instructions appropriate to the religious occasion (no onions, no garlic, and so on), but watching the caterers unpack, three priests decide to skip the meal. The food, they say, has been touched by someone from a lower caste, perhaps a shudra.
My mother springs into action, quickly prepares new dishes to appease these priests. I am angry, ready to burst, but this is not the moment to create a scene.
The incident leaves behind an unpleasant taste; payasa at the end of lunch is bland. Caste, it seems, is still the fault line of society in urban India today. India changes, yet remains the same.

Predicting Survival in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Ron Goldberg
In pulmonary arterial hypertension, which endpoints and risk stratification tools offer the best means of predicting survival?
In patients with a recent diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), the incorporation of the patient's functional class, 6-minute walking distance, N-terminal fragment of pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels into risk stratification tools and multicomponent endpoints improved the ability of these tools and endpoints to predict mortality. These were among study results published recently in The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation.
Prognosis measures for PAH have continually evolved over the past 2 decades and continue to do so. Recently, trials of PAH have used a delay in clinical worsening as their endpoint instead of the previous endpoint of improvement in 6-minute walking distance, a measure set aside after demonstrating limited prognostic value, the study authors noted. However, they further noted that delayed worsening, as an endpoint for studying PAH, provides an incomplete picture because it does not capture clinical improvement. To overcome this problem, novel, multicomponent endpoints and risk stratification tools have been introduced for measuring PAH.
The current study sought to assess the prognostic value of certain novel, improved PAH endpoints and risk stratification tools. Toward that end, researchers analyzed the prognostic value of enhancing multicomponent improvement endpoints and established risk stratification tools by incorporating consideration of measures that included functional class (FC), 6-minute walking distance (6MWD), and N-terminal fragment of pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP).
Investigators for the current retrospective study used the Comparative, Prospective Registry of Newly Initiated Therapies for Pulmonary Hypertension (COMPERA) database (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01347216) to evaluate the prognostic value of adding assessments of functional class (FC), 6-minute walking distance (6MWD), and N-terminal fragment of pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) to previously used PAH endpoints and risk stratification tools. The current study involved a cohort of 596 patients newly diagnosed with PAH between January 2009 and December 2020 who were treatment-naïve (aged18-80 years; hemodynamics at baseline showing mPAP ≥25 mmHg, PAWP ≤15 mmHg, PVR >3 WU [240 dyn/s/cm-5). All patients had data available at baseline and first follow-up (3 to 12 months after treatment initiation) on 6MWD, NT-proBNP, and FC.
The prognostic value of adding assessments of 6MWD, NT-proBNP, and FC to previously used PAH endpoints and risk stratification tools was evaluated by comparing how well the previous vs enhanced endpoint predicted survival in the study cohort from baseline to follow-up. Notably, investigators found that during the study period, 189 (31.7%) patients died, 8 (1.3%) underwent lung transplant, and 34 (5.7%) were lost to follow-up. Estimated survival rates for the study cohort were 95.0% after 1 year, 76.3% after 3 years, and 65.5% after 5 years.
Although 6MWD absolute or relative improvements and absolute declines for NT-proBNP showed no predictive value, FC improvements and NT-proBNP relative declines of at least 35% were associated with improved survival. Likewise, investigators found an association between improved survival and improvements in multicomponent endpoints and risk stratification tools.
Researchers suggested that further exploration of these prognostic tools as outcome measure in PAH trials would be valuable. They concluded, "While sole improvements in 6MWD and NT-proBNP had minor prognostic relevance, improvements in multicomponent endpoints and risk stratification tools based on FC, 6MWD and NT-proBNP were associated with improved survival."
Study limitations included age and comorbidity bias as well as non-evaluation of widely used risk stratification tools.

This is a fun trick to learn how to shift more weight forward over the solid foundation of your arms and lift up into full handstand from Tittibhasana.
The gluteal family is composed of the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus. When the glutes and hamstrings engage—particularly the lower fibers of the gluteal msucles near the hamstring insertion—they extend the hip-joint. This motion initiates all backbends and helps keep the pelvis and spine congruous. Gluteal engagement also helps fire the paraspinal muscles and stabilizes the sacro-illiac joint—both of which facilitate pelvic and spinal balance in backbends.
But, let's answer the question with a little more nuance since some backbends are enhanced by gluteal engagement and others are not. Prone backbends like Locust Pose and Cobra Pose probably don't benefit as much from gluteal contraction because the weight of the pelvis rests on the floor during these postures. This means that you don't need gluteal strength to lift the pelvis because it's not moving in the posture; you also don't need the stabilization that the glutes provide because the pelvis is supported by the floor.
In kneeling backbends like Camel Pose and supine backbends like Bridge Pose and Upward Bow Pose, gluteal engagement is more helpful. These postures produce a greater degree of spinal extension so it's even more important that the pelvis and spine move cohesively. Engaging the glutes, particularly the lower fibers of the gluteus maximus near the hamstring insertion, will help maintain this balance rotating the pelvis slightly back over the top of the legs. This will help reduce lumbar compression—the feeling of your lower-back "crunching." Even more, the glutes help lift the weight of the pelvis in supine backbends. If you don't use the glutes in these postures, it's more likely that you will unnecessarily burden less efficient muscle groups.
Some teachers and students are concerned that using the glutes will make the knees splay too far apart. This is a legitimate concern, but it's easily managed. All you have to do in this situation is co-contract the muscles that line the inside of your thighs, the adductors. Firing the adductors while you engage the glutes will keep your thighs nice and neutral.
In yoga, we have a love affair with internally rotating the legs. Down dog: turn the legs in. Standing forward fold (uttanasana): turn the legs in. The list goes on. It goes to the point of where internal rotation of the legs is seen as a panacea–a cure-all for aches, pains, misalignments and imbalances– and external rotation of the legs, as a consequence, is seen at best as mostly undesirable.
The reality, as always, is quite more nuanced than that. Simply mechanically turning the legs in, which in my opinion has little to do with the muscles of your inner thighs (also known as the adductors), produces a bunch of unintended consequences.
Further, simply turning the legs in like that, from the outside if you will, strains and compresses the femoral triangle–home of the femoral nerve, femoral artery, femoral vein, femoral ring/canal (lymph nodes, drainage). The femoral triangle is basically the armpit of the thigh. Its boundaries are: the inguinal ligament (your hip crease from hip point to pubic bone), adductor longus (one of inner thigh muscles), and the upper portion of the sartorius (from the hip point to where it meets the adductor longus on its way down and in to the inner knee).
Some of you will say that it's not about turning the legs in (and it definitely isn't), but about taking the inner thighs back. I don't disagree. But I would venture to say that when most people hear the instruction to take the inner thighs back, they will turn their legs in from the outside like I described above. In other words, they will simply internally rotate their legs.
It's quite a bit more subtle than that. The inner thighs activate from the ground up, more specifically from the lift of the inner arches of the feet via the tibialis posterior muscle.
So, for example in down dog or uttanasana, with the feet on straight and about hip width apart, draw from the balls of the feet back towards the high point of the arch right in front of the heel and lift that energy up into the inner thighs and the core of the pelvis. Then, ground down through the outer heels without losing the lift of the arches and resist the inner thighs away from each other without changing the position of your feet/heels. The pit of your belly will probably hollow out and lift by itself, your low back will feel broad and supported, and your hips won't grip.
You imagine a spinning top. Stillness is like a perfectly centered top, spinning so fast it appears motionless. It appears this way not because it isn't moving, but because it's spinning at full speed. Stillness is not the absence or negation of energy, life, or movement. Stillness is dynamic. It is unconflicted movement, life in harmony with itself, skill in action. It can be experienced whenever there is total, uninhibited, unconflicted participation in the moment you are in – when you are wholeheartedly present with whatever you are doing.
He went on to say that if you just get up, put on your yoga clothes and stand on the mat, you've accomplished something. What naturally tends to happen is that once on that mat, you figure you may as well do the sun salutations which lead to the standing series and then a few sitting poses—and it just keeps going. Sharing this piece of advice through his gentle, humble and kind demeanor, David's message stuck for me.
Just show up. Seems simple. In what other areas of life can this be applied?
Communication with your spouse is currently challenging. Just show up; keep trying to find ways to understand one another.
You've just finished eating a donut at a meeting while you've pledged to a new diet. Just show up; from this moment on become more mindful of your snack choices.
That project, book or blog post didn't get the feedback you anticipated. Just show up; keep working at it. If there's passion behind what you do, it will get noticed.
I don't expect those days when I just "don't wanna" will vanish. It's very human to have lapses in motivation. But having the intention of moving forward—of rolling out the yoga mat, so to speak—is the first step that may lead to more.

Poverty causes families to send children to work, often in hazardous and low-wage jobs, such as brick-chipping, construction and refuse collecting. Children are paid less than adults, with many working up to twelve hours a day. Full-time work frequently prevents children from attending school. Long hours, low or no wages, poor food, isolation and hazards in the working environment can severely affect children's physical and mental health. UNICEF estimates that around 150 million children aged 5-14 in developing countries are involved in child labour. Although numbers suggest that more boys than girls are involved in child labour, many of the types of work girls are involved in are invisible. It is estimated that roughly 90 per cent of children involved in domestic labour are girls. World Day Against Child Labour is June 12.

The Arizona Coyotes announced Friday the acquisition of Nashville center Emil Pettersson in exchange for AHL forwards Laurent Dauphin and Adam Helewka.
The latter two players were with the Tucson Roadrunners at the time of the deal, but Dauphin has spent some limited time with the Coyotes' NHL roster over the past four seasons. Pettersson, meanwhile, has never played an NHL game but has 11 goals and 22 assists in 49 games with the Milwaukee Admirals (AHL) this year.
The move involves a swap of centers as Dauphin and Pettersson can both play the position, one where the Coyotes have been been decimated by injuries this season for Arizona. Centers Brad Richardson, Nick Schmaltz and Christian Dvorak are currently injured, and Alex Galchenyuk was a center at the start of the year but has since been moved to wing.
Pettersson was drafted in the sixth round (155th overall) in 2013.
Helewka scored 13-18-31 in 41 AHL games this year, while Dauphin scored 6-14-20 in 34 games.
Pettersson is waivers exempt and comes with a $742,500 cap hit, according to CapFriendly. His entry-level contract will expire at the conclusion of this season, making him a restricted free agent.
The Coyotes drafted Dauphin 39th overall in 2013 and traded him to the Blackhawks in the summer of 2017 before reacquiring him last season. Helewka came to the Coyotes from the San Jose Sharks in exchange for defenseman Kyle Wood last summer.

Ernesto's Heavy Rainfall Measured from Space
By Andrea Thompson 10 August 2012
NASA's TRMM satellite saw tropical storm Ernesto on August 9, 2012 at 0656 UTC (2:36 a.m. EDT) after it moved from the Yucatan Peninsula into the Gulf of Mexico. Powerful convective thunderstorms were dropping rain at a rate greater than 50mm per hour (~2 inches) north of the storm's center.

Tropical Storm has been drenching parts of Central America and Mexico as it has swirled over the region, and a NASA satellite has measured just how hard the rain is falling.
From its orbit in space, NASA's Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite spied Ernesto at 2:36 a.m. EDT (0656 UTC) today (Aug. 9), as it moved from the Yucatan Peninsula into the Gulf of Mexico. Analysis of the data it gathered shows that powerful convective thunderstorms were dropping rain at a rate greater than about 2 inches (50 millimeters) per hour north of the storm's center.
A 3D view created from the data shows that a few of the powerful convective storms near Ernesto's center were pushing to heights of over about 10 miles (16 kilometers). The energy released by these storms near Ernesto's center can be a sign of intensification, according to a NASA release.

Observations from the surface and air suggest that Ernesto has made its second landfall — or is very close to it — near Coatzacoalcos, Mexico, according to the latest update from the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC). It currently has winds of 60 mph (95 kph) and is moving westward at about 5 mph (7 kph).
Ernesto is expected to keep moving westward over southern Mexico, weakening as it goes because it will be cut off from the warm waters that fuel tropical cyclones (the generic term for tropical storms and hurricanes). A tropical storm warning is currently in effect from Veracruz to Chilitepec.
The storm is expected to drop 5 to 10 inches (130 to 250 mm) of rain on affected areas, with potential for isolated areas to see 15 inches (38 mm). The NHC warns that these rains could produce flash floods and mud slides in higher terrain areas.
Ernesto was the second hurricane and is the fifth named of the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season. So far six named storms and two hurricanes have formed in the basin this season.
Forecasters today announced an updated outlook for the season, calling for 12 to 17 named storms, including the storms that have already occurred. Of these, five to eight are expected to become hurricanes. These numbers were an upward shift from the forecast at the beginning of the season; the change was made in part because of the formation of Ernesto and Tropical Storm Florence so quickly and so early in August.
August and September are typically the busiest months of the hurricane season. Forecasters are currently monitoring another system out in the Atlantic that they think is likely to become a tropical depression. If it strengthens from there into a tropical storm, it will be named Gordon.

Q: Total Mystery: simple RegExp code only working on certain pages I'm stumped. A client asked to change the color of the star at the end of each of the articles on his site.
So easy!!!
This code:
$('.center-col p:contains("✭")').each(function(){
  $(this).html(
    $(this).html().replace('✭','✭')
  );
});

aught to do it. But no.
It works fine on some pages (e.g. this one and this one) but refuses to work on others (e.g. this one or this one).
All articles are using an identical Wordpress template, and I can't for the life of me find any differences between the articles. I even tried looping through every p tag
$('p').each(function(){
  $(this).html(
  $(this).html().replace('✭','✭')
  );
});

and still the same result.
Anyone who can solve this mystery is effing man!!

A: You're using two different star characters. The character which you're missing is ★ (char code 9733) whereas the character you're searching for is ✭ (char code 10029) - they look nearly identical (possibly identical) but they are different Unicode values.
To fix, either use the same star on each page or adjust your regex to include both stars.

From the vision of a young railroad engineer reacting to the crushing pressures of a rapidly expanding metropolis, sprung Grand Central Terminal, which on its 100th birthday this year is still considered the finest urban transportation hub ever built. A newly published book, "Grand Central" by Sam Roberts, explores this massive project from start to finish, and some of the details are simply staggering. It was a two billion dollar construction job in today's terms, created 300 railway cars of debris each day, and employed 10,000 workers on site around the clock. All in the center of Manhattan! Take a minute to read some excerpts from Roberts' book, printed recently in this New York Times article.

What Do You See When You Visit the College Hunks Franchise?
When franchisees come to College Hunks Hauling Junk for training, team-building or a Discovery Day, they are amazed by the energy, the company culture and the fun of the day-in, day-out business happening here.
Co-founders Nick Friedman and Omar Soliman found the perfect location for their headquarters in the Ybor City Tampa neighborhood, which dates back to the 1800s. Once home to Cuban immigrants and cigar-rolling establishments, it is now a hotspot of restaurants, businesses and culture, and the energy is a perfect complement to what's happening at College Hunks Hauling Junk franchising.
There's a serious side here, as well, because Nick and Omar want to make sure that franchisees replicate their success. To that end, another early stop on any tour is the library, where there are shelves of books on franchising, and everyone gets a copy of Effortless Entrepreneur, the best-selling book the two co-founders wrote in 2010.
Also on view is the oversized $10,000 check that Soliman won in 2004 when he submitted a business plan to the Leigh Rothschild Entrepreneurship Competition. That money was the seed funding for College Hunks Hauling Junk.
Anchoring the building in many ways is the Sales & Loyalty Center, where the national sales team is hard at work bringing in new business for College Hunks Hauling Junk franchisees. But don't think it's all nose to the grindstone: along one wall employees can kick a field goal or shoot a corntoss, winning prizes when sales benchmarks are hit. There's also a wall aptly named the "Hunk 'HAUL' of Fame," with photos of franchise owners and the territory they've claimed.
Just around from the call center and corporate offices is a break area, but even there the energy and enthusiasm that exudes the College Hunks Hauling Junk culture is on display. An entire "vision wall" is given over to aspirations, and employees have notched up some major goals.
That optimism carries over into the training room, where field-turf grass continues the sporting theme found throughout the building. Ready to step out onto the field? If so, "you're joining a winning team," Nick says.
Given College Hunks Hauling Junk's amazing growth in less than a decade, it's no surprise that its headquarters can expand up and out. From warehouse space in the back that shows what a fully realized, mature franchise operation looks like, Nick literally can point in every direction when he talks about the future.
When people finish the training, they become graduates of Hunk University, and they are out there spreading the word and operating successful franchises. That helps attract even more people to the team, and so we hope more people will jump on board and get their photos on the library's "Haul" of Fame wall.
