El   es el tercer grupo yakuza más grande de Japón, con aproximadamente 3100 miembros. Tiene su sede en la región de Kantō y además de ser una de las primeras organizaciones yakuza en comenzar a operar en el extranjero.

Historia

El Inagawa-kai  fue fundado en Atami, Shizuoka en 1949como  por Kakuji Inagawa.  La mayoría de sus miembros procedían de los bakuto (jugadores tradicionales), y apuestas ilegales, las que han sido las principales fuentes de ingresos del clan. También se ha expandido a campos como el narcotráfico, el chantaje, la extorsión y la prostitución.

El Inagawa-gumi paso a llamarse Inagawa-kai en 1972..  Después de Kakuji Inagawa, la pandilla fue dirigida por Susumu Ishii, quién llevó a la organización a una prosperidad financiera sin precedentes durante la burbuja económica japonesa durante la década de 1980. En un momento, se estimó que los activos del clan superaban los 1,500 millones de dólares. Después de la muerte de Ishii en 1990, el hijo de Inagawa, Toi Inagawa, asumió el cargo de kumicho y dirigió el clan hasta su muerte en mayo de 2005. Yoshio Tsunoda tomó el relevo en 2006 y encabezó el clan hasta su muerte en febrero de 2010.  Kazuo Uchibori puede ser el próximo en la línea para liderar el clan, pero su condición de "kyodaibun" (hermano de sangre) de Takeuchi Teruaki, un miembro señor de Yamaguchi-gumi, puede complicar las cosas.

En febrero de 2009, Inagawa-kai 'Honbu' (oficina central) se mudó del distrito de Roppongi de Tokio a Akasaka. Actualmente existe una fuerte resistencia por parte de los grupos políticos locales y los residentes de Akasaka, siendo probable una nueva mudanza

El Inagawa-kai ayudó discretamente a brindar ayuda a la población afectada tras el terremoto y tsunami de Tōhoku de 2011 enviando suministros a las áreas afectadas. En conjunto, el grupo envió más de 100 toneladas de suministros, incluidos ramen instantáneo, brotes de soja, pañales de papel, baterías, linternas, té y agua potable, a la región de Tōhoku. El grupo ha tenido un decremento importante en los últimos años, contando con 1,900 miembros oficiales y 1,200 cuasi miembros a finales de 2021.

Personas clave
Las figuras renombradas de Inagawa-kai en el  incluyen a Tatsou Deguchi (conocido como el "Tatsu el marroquí" o "Tatsu de Marruecos"), Kingo Yoshimizu, Kijin Inoue,Takamasa Ishii, Haruki Sho y Kiichiro Hayashi.  , conocido como "jefe de Gotenba", era originalmente un ciudadano chino que se mudó a Japón como trabajador forzado con su familia. Era mejor conocido como el Gran Consejero de la tercera generación de Inagawa-kai y fue uno de los padrinos más respetados en la historia de Inagawa.

The top five beyond the mainstream science documentaries
Video Ja
Bron: Waking Times
Bewustzijn, (Grens)wetenschap, Kwantum fysica, Aarde en milieu, Milieu
(Waking Times | Mike Sygula) We present our top five science documentaries from beyond the mainstream:
1. Man's Right To Know – Wilhelm Reich & Orgone Energy
Man's Right to Know is a 30 minute documentary telling the story of Wilhelm Reich's life and his discoveries. Reich (24 March 1897 – 3 November 1957) was an Austrian psychoanalyst who is probably most known for his "discovery" of orgone energy, a life force permeating everything which has electromagnetic properties.
Although mainstream science has not fully approved this concept, we know that this idea exists in many cultures. In Japan it is called Ki, in China it is known as Chi and in India it was named Prana. Reich was also known for his orgone accumulator, a device which can supposedly heal various afflictions; he also experimented with weather manipulation.
Reich's life ended quite dramatically, he was thrown into jail as the American Food and Drug Administration obtained an injunction purporting that his work was a fraud. Over six tons of his publications were burned and Reich died of a heart attack in jail.
2. Where Science And Buddhism Meet
This short documentary explains how some classic Buddhist ideas correlate with certain scientific concepts. The author proposes that key Buddhist teachings are just other ways of understanding reality. Some of the topics mentioned in this film include the quantum field, the fabric of the cosmos, the emptiness of atoms, etc.
3. The Global Brain – Peter Russell
In this fascinating video, based on a live audio-visual presentation from 1983, Peter Russell explores the idea that Earth is an integrated, self-regulating, living organism and asks how humanity is related to the planet. Some of the areas he covers include: the biosphere and the evolution of the organisms, the stability of global temperatures, ocean salinity and other environmental factors affecting the habitability of the Earth.
4. Athene's Theory Of Everything
The scientific merit of this documentary has divided online opinion in recent years, perhaps because it was produced by a gamer rather than a highly qualified scientist, but this doesn't necessarily mean that its theories are invalid.
Bachir "Chiren" Boumaaza, aka Athene, is a well-known Internet personality, social activist and an eccentric professional gamer. One year before his film was released in 2011, Athene disappeared from public view. During that time he was conducting research into quantum physics, general & special relativity, neuroscience and metaphysics. However, the claims presented in the documentary have not been peer-reviewed or confirmed by mainstream scientific bodies.
5. Reality And The Extended Mind
Is a documentary exploring the concept of consciousness from an alternative perspective. Conventional wisdom presumes that consciousness can be explained in terms of neural impulses occurring within the brain, however the group of scientists appearing in this film think otherwise. They propose that consciousness extends beyond our bodies and can interact with the world around us. One of the experiments supporting this claim is called The Global Consciousness Project where major events like 9/11 elicit widespread emotion or attract simultaneous attention from large groups of people. Numerous random number generators are used to determine the extent of their reactions to these phenomena and the output is measured in terms of collective emotional behavior.

Grayslake Central High School (also known as Grayslake Central or GCHS) is a public four-year high school located in Grayslake, Illinois and is part of Grayslake Community High School District 127. Founded in 1946, the school services the Chicago suburbs of Grayslake, Hainesville, and parts of Round Lake. The school's mascot is the Ram. Sender schools include Park School Campus, Grayslake Middle School, Woodland Middle School, Fremont Middle School, Highland Middle School, St. Gilbert Catholic School, and Prairie Crossing Charter School.

History
Grayslake Central High School, originally known as Grayslake Community High School, opened for the first time in 1946 at 400 Lake Street, in downtown Grayslake, Illinois.  When the school opened, it was fairly small, consisting of one gymnasium, art studios, culinary art studios, classrooms, and a small cafeteria. In the years following, the campus was expanded to include a smaller auxiliary gymnasium, new district offices combined with an Instructional Media Center, a small theater, more classrooms in the late 90s, woodworking and metalworking facilities, choir and band facilities, a new, larger theater, and a field house. Due to a quickly rising student body resulting in the overcrowding of classes and lunch periods, the school district voted on a number of solutions such as the construction of another addition, or building an entirely separate campus. In the end, the latter was chosen and Grayslake North High School opened as a freshman campus for the 2004–2005 school year and continued as such until the 2007–2008 school year when all students living north of Washington Street relocated to the new campus.

Administration
The school's principal is Daniel J. Landry. The district superintendent is Dr. Mikkel Storaasli.

"GATOS VIEJOS" AND "MISS BALA" – Two Spanish-language films you should take note of
The vicissitudes of aging in Chile, running ammo in Tijuana
Ali Naderzad May 6, 2012
In "Gatos Viejos" ("Old Cats") Isidora (Bélgica Castro) lives out her retirement days with her compagnon Enrique and the two cats of the film's title. Their tidy world is devastated when Isadora's daughter Rosario (Claudia Celedón) shows up. The young woman is an abrasive jumble of contradictions who's been dragging resentments around awhile. She brought back a sack filled with homemade, organic soaps (a favorite paraphernalia among goddamned hippies) hoping to attract parental subsidies to open a boutique and sell the stuff.
Bélgica Castro, who's the grande dame of Chilean theatre actors (and who at 90 should probably not be acting anymore) has appeared in several movies by Raul Ruiz, taught theatre history at university and recently was awarded the best actor award at Montreal's Latin-American film festival. Her performance of a character who slides into disease-induced oblivion carries "Cats" by itself.
Pedro Peirano (his "The Maid" was well received when it came out a couple years ago), as tribute to Castro, came up with a script that's close to the reality of her life. "Cats" was filmed in Castro's actual apartment, located in the center of Santiago and the man playing her compagnon (Alejandro Sieveking) plays that role in real life, too.
Their apartment is just like what you would imagine the home of old people who've seen the world to be: neat, with shelves groaning under the weight of books.There's a figurine collection, and a handsome wooden horse that could've been taken out of a antique merry-go-round. A daily ritual of medication-taking—lots of it—stressing the evils of too much rich Chilean cuisine, perhaps? Or other annoyances like a cantankerous daughter?
But bigger issues are at stake beside Rosario's posturing. Isadora is affected by dementia: it's a recent development. Every once in a while she "checks out," only to gain her wits back and find that the sink she was washing her clothes in is overflowing or that she's entered a public fountain and is drenched in water. Peirano builds up a kind of hair-raising suspense by playing a rising rumble whenever Isadora switches off. It sounds like an airplane doing a fly-by in slow-motion and is very effective in conveying the terror she experiences as she loses control.
The old woman has a bad hip, too, and when the elevator breaks down she's unable to go down the eight floors or so that separate her from the outside world. Her own world just got smaller. When you retire, a few salient things are taken away from you: a sense of purpose, self-worth. But when you're reduced to fifty squared feet of living space, that's devastating.
Claudia Celedón and Catalina Saavedra (she plays Rosario's butch girlfriend) both appeared in Peirano's previous film "The Maid." The complicity between actors and filmmaker and a narrative which holds both drama and–as you'll find out–hope make "Old Cats" incredibly compelling. In fact, this is one of the most rewarding films I've seen all year.
Isadora (Bélgica Castro) and her daughter Rosario (Claudia Celedón)
"Miss Bala" will surprise you. You've been hearing about Mexico's druglords on the 10 o'clock news, with your imagination doing the rest: cowboy boots-wearing honchos riding their Humvees from castle to mansion in Mexico's lowland, ducking a bullet here, officiating a beheading there, living off the fat of the land. As we discover in "Miss Bala," which is based on a true story, the part about boots and beheadings are true; the rest is glorification.
Once Laura and her friend Uzu decide to participate in the Miss Baja California (the Mexican state whose capital city is Tijuana) beauty pageant, they decide to use Uzu's connections to gangs to increase their chances of getting selected. They meet up with the "narcotrafficantes" (who are mingling with D.E.A. agents) in a nightclub's V.I.P. lounge when gunfire suddenly breaks out. Laura sees—and is seen by—the rival gang as they execute everyone and then load bodies in the back of a pickup. She manages to escape, but, being without news from her friend, she enlists a police officer who—as a telling illustration of how police is in cahoots with drug lords in Mexico—takes her right to the gang's leader, Lino (Noe Hernandez). Abusing Laura's desire to get into the Miss Baja California contest, he plies her with money to pay for a dress and the promise of a pageant win in exchange for a variety of errands, principally to procure his gang valuable ammunition.
Ammunition is Lino's currency of choice: running out of, and then procuring, bullets from across the border visibly a priority item on a Mexican druglord's daily shopping list (because ain't no ammunition shops to be found locally in Mexico). The most important errand Laura will handle for Lino, in fact, will be to purchase bullets (thus the film's title, "Miss Bala," which means "Miss Bullet" in Spanish)–it will probably cause you some irony to find out that Laura drives to the U.S. to purchase the ammo.
As she is now ducking bullets and running interference, Laura tries to stay alive long enough to absolve herself from any further responsibility to the gang. But all through her ordeal Laura always remains passive, which can be frustrating to watch. In an interview Naranjo said he wanted her passiveness to illustrate Mexican society at large, its apathy in the face of violence.
Naranjo has crafted an elegant and suspenseful thriller which bears the same kind of gravitas as you'd find in an award-winning documentary: it will grip you as much as it will make you shudder. But "Miss Bala" is entirely devoid of hope, so be prepared. As Naranjo would have us believe, there are no good guys in the war on drugs in Mexico. Everyone is bad, everyone is corrupt. And I'm yay closer to believing he's right.

"2 Days in New York" – REVIEW >


A major tributary of the Sirion, which rose in the dark heights of the Ered Gorgoroth, and flowed southwestward to meet the Sirion on the western borders of Doriath. It marked the boundary between the forests of Neldoreth and Region.
In his Appendix to The Silmarillion, Christopher Tolkien explains the element esgal- as 'screen, hiding', but doesn't explain why this would apply to the Esgalduin. It would be natural to associate the name with Doriath's being known as the 'Hidden Kingdom', but in fact this does not seem to be correct. Actually, the Esgalduin seems to have taken its name from the dense forests it ran through, whose branches and leaves veiled the river from sight. This interpretation comes from The Etymologies (The History of Middle-earth Volume 5, The Lost Road and Other Writings III).


The Maryville College men's basketball team could not comeback from a tough first half that featured 19 Nebraska Wesleyan points off 13 Fighting Scots turnovers. The Prairie Wolves advanced to the second round of the NCAA Division III National Tournament after a 94-70 victory over Maryville College on Friday evening in St. Louis, Missouri.
A Calvin Songster basket at the 11-minute mark tied the game at 15 before Nebraska Wesleyan went on an 18-0 run over the next six minutes vaulting to a 33-15 advantage. A Tanner Spalding basket combined with treys by Emanuelle Garcia and Calvin Songster helped MC keep pace, but the Prairie Wolves closed the first half out-scoring the Scots 35-13.
Maryville went to the intermission down 48-26. Despite winning the battle of the boards, Maryville could only manage a 34% effort (10-for-29) from the floor. Nebraska Wesleyan countered with a 56% shooting attack (17-for-30) that featured eight three-pointers.
The Scots pulled to within 19 on three occasions in the second period, but could not overcome their first half miscues. The Prairie Wolves pushed to as much as a 29 point lead early in the final stanza and settled for the 24 point tournament advancing victory.
Maryville (22-7) was paced by Dante Hoppa's double-double effort. He deposited four three-pointers while finishing with a team-high 18 points and team-high 10 rebounds. Emanuelle Garcia added a trio of treys finishing with 13 points off the bench. Emier Bowman added 11 points and eight boards in the loss.
Nebraska Wesleyan (25-3) advances in the NCAA tournament after all five starters finished with double-digit scoring. Cooper Cook went 7-for-9 from the floor including three from long distance for a game-high 19 points. Ryan Garver finished with a double-double posting 18 points and a game-high 14 boards while dishing out eight assists. Jack Hiller and Nate Schimonitz each added 15 points while Deion Wells-Ross tossed in a dozen in the win.
The Prairie Wolves will advance to face the winner of the Aurora University/Washington University-St. Louis matchup in NCAA second round action.

"I hope he doesn't lose his joy" - Silva sends emotional support as Neymar admits mental health struggle
NEYMAR: THE PERFECT CHAOS
Netflix announces Neymar: The Perfect Chaos produced by LeBron James
2022 World Cup to be the last of Neymar show?
Mbappe admits to calling Neymar a 'bum'
'We are not happy with the result and the performance, we know we have to do better'
"I hope he doesn't lose his joy, continue to be happy the way he always is. He is a very special kid and, when he's happy, doing what he loves, he delivers."
Thiago Silva and Neymar Jr. have a strong bonding among themselves playing together at club level as well as the national team.
The Selecao defender has offered his emotional support to the Brazilian superstar Neymar who earlier this week admitted he doesn't know if he has the "strength of mind to deal with football" much longer.
Silva has played alongside Neymar for the Selecao for a decade and also competed alongside the forward at Paris Saint-Germain. As a world-renowned centre-back, Silva said he can relate to the feelings Neymar has expressed - and acknowledged it was hurtful to be publicly labelled "a crybaby, weak, very weak, mentally" when speaking out on his struggles.
So, the defender is determined to provide public backing to his countryman in hopes of helping him regain his love for football.
What has been said?
"Here at the national team, I have gone through some moments that are very similar [with what Neymar is going through], especially after 2014 World Cup," Silva told reporters.
"I was called a crybaby, weak, very weak, mentally. These are things that hurt you and you know that you are not what you have been called.
In an Instagram story, Silva added: "If you need someone strong to be by your side, know that I will always be there. The Silva family love you."
What were Neymar's retirement comments?
"I think it's my last World Cup [in 2022]," the Paris Saint-Germain star said on DAZN.
"I see it as my last because I don't know if I have the strength of mind to deal with football anymore.
"So I'll do everything to turn up well, do everything to win with my country, to realise my greatest dream since I was little. And I hope I can do it."
Mental health has become a key conversation in football in recent years as players have started to open up about their personal struggles, helping normalise the importance of asking for help rather than keeping emotions inside.
Neymar has joined the likes of Jack Wilshere, Tyrone Mings, and Christian Pulisic in speaking out about mental health this year.

Arthur Charles Lionel Abrahams
Arthur Charles Lionel Abrahams was the only son of Sir Lionel Abrahams, K.C.B. and his wife Lucy. He was admitted to the school as a non-resident King's Scholar in 1911 and was based in Grant's House. Arthur was Jewish, and his faith may have led him to become an honorary scholar, rather than residing in College.
He excelled at the school and took an active role in the Debating Society. In 1915 he seconded the motion 'That in the opinion of this House the present situation renders Conscription imperative' and the school's magazine, The Elizabethan records that:
'with the help of a great many statistics, informed the House that there were at least one and a half million men who were able to join the Forces. Conscription, he considered, would be fairer and more economical all round. As to the 'volunteer worth three conscripts' fallacy, Napoleon practically conquered the world with a conscript army. He said that the Opposer's views were those of a sentimentalist, and, after informing the House that he knew twenty-seven slackers, sat down.'
Arthur was also heavily involved in the Officer Training Corps, where he made a 'very efficient sergeant'. On leaving school in July 1916 he was elected to Christ Church, Oxford. However, he chose to join the war and took a commission as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Cold Stream Guards later that summer. He went out to the western front in February 1917 and joined the 3rd Battalion of his regiment there. He was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant in December and was killed in action the following year on 13th April 1918.
An excerpt from his obituary in the Jewish Chronicle, published in June 1918 read as follows:
'The Commanding Officer with whom he served during the greater part of his service abroad has written to Sir Lionel Abrahams, "I knew your boy well and was commanding the battalion when he joined. He was most popular with all ranks, and he was particularly fearless……….Arthur was a Coldstream Guarder through and through. He fought like one and he died like one." The colonel commanding the Guards wrote: "The regiment can ill afford to lose men like him", and from the ranks there has reached his family the equally prized message: "The boys would follow him wherever he wanted them to."
After he had been reported missing his parents learned that he fell on April 13th, when England lost a gallant son, Anglo-Jewry one of the most promising of its youngest generation, and his immediate family the joy of their hearts.'

Yonder Mountain's Jeff Austin gets a little…
Yonder Mountain's Jeff Austin gets a little help from his friends
Jeff Austin, center, plays the Gold Hill Inn on Sunday.
By Wendy Kale, Kalene McCort | kmccort@prairiemountainmedia.com and Kalen Nemnich |
Who: Jeff Austin & Friends
When: 7:30 p.m. Sunday
Where: Gold Hill Inn, 401 Main St., Gold Hill
goldhillinn.com
Jeff Austin's getting ready to hit the road with Yonder Mountain String Band, but the versatile musician's going to show off his special side project this weekend.
Austin is Yonder Mountain's talented mandolin player, and he just played two sold-out shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and the Fox Theatre with his band. The concerts showed off the group's new CD, The Show, and pumped up the group for its fall tour.
That's why it's a good time for Jeff Austin & Friends to play the Mishawaka Amphitheatre tonight and the Gold Hill Inn on Sunday.
"This fall is going to be insane in Yonderland," Austin said. "There's going to be a lot of traveling to promote our new CD.
"It was great playing the Fox and Red Rocks a few weeks back. It's nice that people in Colorado still want to come out and see us play."
Austin loves performing with Yonder Mountain, but the artist's side projects give him a chance to show off the other sides of his musical persona.
Local fans may be surprised to find out Austin's musical origins. The performer got his taste for the stage by performing in high school shows.
"Performing in those shows really taught me how to interpret music and mood," Austin said. "It helped me find a way to connect with crowds. When you come from that kind of background, you really build a different kind of connection with your audiences."
Austin makes good use of those skills, as he's always animated and engaged with the Yonder Mountain fans.
The musician also will be using those talents with Jeff Austin & Friends.
"My own projects keep growing and changing," Austin said. "The band I'm performing with this weekend is a good excuse to spend time with musicians I really appreciate.
"I'll be playing with Danny Barnes — he's about to massively explode on the pop market, and I'll be playing with top-caliber musician Eric Thorin."
Austin's also getting ready to release a rock record with Umphrey McGee's guitarist/vocalist Brendan Bayliss.
The two musicians forged a solid musical friendship and developed a brand of music that goes beyond the bounds of Yonder Mountain and Umphrey's.
"I like to make music that's not always bound by bluegrass, folk and rock," Austin said. "I like to create a space where I can play a little bit of everything.
"Brendan and I have been working on our rock project for three or four years. It's a great musical outlet for us and the music has its own sound. We got some help on the record from the North Mississippi Allstars' Cody Dickinson and 'etown's' Nick Forster."
Austin and Yonder Mountain also are getting ready to rock out New Year's Eve in Denver.
Yonder Mountain is slated to play Dec. 30 and 31 at the Fillmore Auditorium. The band's also playing a Dec. 29 show at the Boulder Theater.
"This may be the last New Year's we play in Denver for awhile," Austin said. "There's some other great places that might be worth exploring."
MTHDS
MTHDS stands for Music That Heightens Different Senses.
The Colorado band has a knack for fusing different genres into one great musical stew. The group uses cool melodies and beats in its mix, and the act's opened shows for Asher Roth, 3OH!3 and the Roots.
Tonight, MTHDS headlines the University of Colorado's Club 156. The band will show off its dance-driven music for the all-ages crowd.
"We all met up in Vail and we started playing in clubs," MC Don Dillen said. "The band is hip-hop oriented, but we also love reggae, classic rock and funk. Our music is a fusion of all the things we like to listen to.
"So far, it's been working out good. We're really gonna break it out at Club 156 with all originals and some stuff off our new album. We're going to throw in some very interesting covers, too."

Ayo Obileye ready to fight his way back into Livingston side after suspension
Ayo Obileye was sent off at Celtic Park (Robert Perry/PA)
Livingston defender Ayo Obileye knows he might need to maintain his patience as his two-match suspension finally comes to an end.
Obileye was sent off in stoppage time of Livi's trip to Celtic Park on October 30 after hitting out at Kyogo Furuhashi in his own penalty box.
Max Stryjek saved the resulting penalty to earn Livi a point, but Obileye has had to wait a month before being eligible again because of Hibernian's Covid-19 issues and the international break.
The 27-year-old has had plenty of time to ponder his mistake but has tried to use his time on the sidelines to good effect.
Ahead of Wednesday's cinch Premiership clash in Aberdeen, Obileye said: "I'm buzzing to be back but it doesn't mean I am going to be playing.
"The boys have been playing well. Despite the result on Sunday (3-1 defeat by Rangers), defensively they have been solid. It's only right if they are playing well that they should play.
"I'm happy to be back, but it's disappointing what happened. I still have to fight my way back in the team.
"You make mistakes. Some people make less mistakes and some people make more mistakes. Something like this is a learning curve for me.
"It's been about a month but at the same time it has flown by. I have been taking my mind off it by doing extra training. I had some family over, my missus and stuff, so that helped mentally. The boys have been great with me as well.
"You just make the most of a bad situation and keep on top of the game. If I'm not playing, I need to keep my sharpness and fitness elsewhere."

The air travel process can be difficult for even the most experienced traveler. For those with intellectual or developmental disabilities, including autism, the experience can be daunting. Peter Berns, CEO of The Arc of the United States shares a discussion on his organization's program designed to alleviate some of the stress that families and family members with autism experience when traveling by air.
Traynham: Traveling with children can present many challenges for parents. And for children with autism, the break in routine, unfamiliar surroundings, and lack of control pose additional challenges, especially when flying. Hello, everyone, and welcome to "Comcast Newsmakers." I´m Robert Traynham. Joining me today is Peter Berns. He´s the CEO of the Arc of the United States. He joins me to discuss the challenges for those flying with autism. Peter, welcome to the program.
Berns: It´s great to be here with you, Robert.
Traynham: As always, it is good to see you. So, you know, it´s interesting I never thought about this before. I travel a lot, I´m sure there are many people that are watching this program on their smart device or at home travel a lot as well. But walk us through some of the unique challenges of a parent or a family when they´re traveling with someone with autism -- particularly a child.
Berns: Sure, sure. So for individuals with autism, you know, an airport can be a really daunting experience to try to get through there.
Traynham: Can I pause there for a second?
Traynham: ´Cause I think for any person, regardless of who you are, traveling in an airport, just the anxiety of getting to your flight, all of the sounds, getting through security -- that´s a daunting thing for anyone, right?
Berns: It is. And there are the lights, there´s the noise, there´s the commotion and the crowds.
Berns: You go through security and you have to give up your belongings and put them on a conveyor belt, and you may end up having, you know, you have to walk through and may end up being subject to a pat-down. You have a lot of time waiting at a gate. You get on an airplane, and it´s, you know, close surroundings and a lot of noise, things that are strange to you. And what we´ve seen is that for children with autism, this can be a pretty daunting experience, as well as for folks with other disabilities.
Traynham: And so walk me through how you all came up with the program. As I understand it, it´s called Wings for Autism -- specifically, what is that?
Berns: Yes. So, Wings for Autism is a travel simulation. A family can bring their son or daughter, their loved one with disabilities, with autism or other disabilities to the airport, and they go through a trail run.
Berns: They go up to the ticket counter, they check their bags, they go through security, they go to the gate, they board the plane. They listen to all the announcements from the flight attendants. In some of these simulations, we actually have the planes taxiing around the runway.
Berns: So they can experience it all and know that they can do it, you know, before the family actually plops down a lot of money to pay for a vacation or a trip.
Traynham: Peter, what I´m hearing is this is almost like a dress rehearsal so that the child with autism, it´s not new to them. This is not their first time going through security, hearing the sounds and so forth. So in other words, you´re trying to create an environment that´s a little bit more predictable for them.
Berns: Yeah, this -- so they understand what´s gonna happen, they can practice it a bit, and then finally, the family will get to a point where they can actually take a trip.
Traynham: So I think this is phenomenal, and I guess my burning question is how did this start, where did this come from?
Traynham: Let me pause there for a second. What you just said, I think is really important. So the family had to basically split apart and one part of the family went on with the vacation, the other part had to stay at home.
Berns: That´s right, that´s right. And they -- the mom then went to our chapter outside of Baltimore and Charles River Center, and told their story. And the chapter, they contacted Logan Airport, they contacted TSA, they contacted the airlines, and the developed this program. And they came to us at the national level and told us what they had done, and we said, "Well, hey, we´ll work with you, and let´s take this national." And so we just celebrated -- had our hundredth Wings for Autism event.
Berns: We´ve been over the last four years, a hundred events at 45 airports around the country. Literally 13,000 people have participated in this program.
Traynham: I think that´s great, Peter, And I´m sure, again, for the folks that are watching at home or on their smart device, they´re probably saying, "Well, wait a minute. My local airport is right around the corner or five blocks away or five miles away. How can I get involved?" Is there a place or a website where they can go to see if, in fact, their local airport´s involved in this program?
Berns: So if they go to thearc.org/wingsforautism, we list future events, and you´ll see when there´s an event coming to your community. And if there isn´t an event coming to your community, contact your local chapter of the Arc or contact our national office, and we´ll see if we can help create one.
Traynham: I think, again, this is great, Peter. My last question for you is folks out there may not have heard of the Arc. What specifically is it?
Berns: So we´re a national charity federation that advocates on behalf of in-service people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, conditions like autism or Down syndrome, Fragile X. And we have 655 chapters in 47 states and the District of Columbia, supporting people with disabilities to be included in their communities.
Traynham: Peter Berns, president and CEO of the Arc of the United States. Thank you very much for joining us. As always, good to see you.
Berns: It´s always good to see you, too.
Traynham: And, of course, thank you for joining us as well. For more great conversations with leaders in your community and across the nation, visit comcastnewsmakers.com. I´m Robert Traynham.

Shannon Gillen Joins SMTD in Fall 2020
Aug 26, 2020 | Faculty, Faculty Announcements, News

Shannon Gillen joins the School of Music, Theatre & Dance as an Associate Professor of Dance in Fall 2020.
Of the appointment, Gillen said: "I am thrilled to bring my passion for radical storytelling and dance-making, for building community through physical practice and collaborative research, and for expanding the cultural vitality of physical dance theater to the University of Michigan and SMTD."
One of New York City's most sought after choreographers, Gillen is the founder and artistic director of the visionary dance company VIM VIGOR. Through a prolific body of work that galvanizes the body's potential to express intellectual and emotional concepts, Gillen has pioneered a recognizable artistic language that possesses heroic physicality, electric emotional life, and cinematic imagery that illuminates and heightens the narrative imagination. She was recently championed by Deborah Jowitt as 'vastly gifted' and VOGUE Magazine called her work 'mesmerizing.'
"I am pleased to welcome Shannon Gillen to the SMTD Faculty," said Dean David Gier. "Shannon is a well-established presence in the dance world, with extensive professional experience as dancer, choreographer, and artistic director, and a commitment to educating the next generation of performing artists. Shannon will be a dynamic addition to the Department of Dance."
Gillen has had an extensive career as a dancer and choreographer in NYC and Europe. She danced with the Johannes Wieland Company at the Staatstheater Kassel, Germany as a full time company member, where she danced in 56 international performances and was singled out in the press for being 'in top form, a feat of strength' (HNA, German News). While dancing in Germany, Gillen burst into the choreographic scene receiving 3rd Prize at the International Solo-Tanz Competition in Stuttgart, and commissions at the Mainfranken Theater Würzburg and the TIF Theater in Kassel. She was also selected as a THINK BIG choreographer in residence with the Staatsoper in Hannover, creating a piece that premiered at the TANZ Theater International Festival.
Upon returning to the States, Shannon founded VIM VIGOR as the home for her collaborative choreographic and educational endeavors. Her creations with VIM live in the electric space between theater and contemporary dance, depicting worlds where human behavior scales from small private gestures to extreme physicality. She has been commissioned across the USA, Canada, Central America, South America and Europe. Recent commissions include new work for Benjamin Millepied's L.A. Dance Project, the b12 Festival in Berlin, DANCEworks at the Lobero Theatre, Gibney Dance Company, Boston Dance Theater, de Danseurs in NL, and as the recipient of the International Commissioning Project for Hubbard Street 2; notable festivals and venues where her work has been seen include Springboard Danse Montreal, Prisma Festival in Panama, Judson Church, NYLA, PULSE Art Fair/Art Basel, Bryant Park, NYC's River to River Festival, The Joyce, and Jacob's Pillow. Additional projects include choreography and art direction for fashion label PHELAN/NY Fashion Week.
In 2018, Shannon was a choreographer-in-residence at the Lewis Center for the Arts at Princeton. And in 2019/2020 her work premiered at the ICA in Boston, UNCSA, Rutgers University, and with Arts Umbrella in Vancouver and in the Hague in the NL. In 2021, she will develop a new work for the Over het lj Festival in the Netherlands with de Dansers, begin research on a new creation for VIM VIGOR, and will return with VIM as a principal company at Springboard Danse in Montreal.
Gillen graduated from The Juilliard School with her BFA in 2003 and from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in 2013, where she was awarded a full fellowship to obtain her MFA. Dedicated to the advancement of movement based education, Gillen is a leading contemporary dance teacher with a large following of dancers in both the professional and higher education arenas. She has held faculty teaching positions at SUNY Purchase College and Princeton University, and she is a regular guest teaching artist at The Juilliard School, The Hartt School, and New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. Gillen also established a new platform for dance theater education in NYC with VIM VIGOR, as well as ongoing classes, workshops, and intensives.

CIBSE Website
1 and 2 New Ludgate
Article from the June 2015 edition of the CIBSE Journal written by Phil Thompson.
Limited space and strict noise requirements led to a compact, enclosed chiller being specified for an office scheme at 1 and 2 New Ludgate, in central London.
The strict noise requirements of Land Securities' commercial development helped to determine the specification of the chillers for the project. Air conditioning manufacturer Carrier worked closely with the client, consultant and contractor, SRW, to develop a compact, energy efficient design that enabled the chillers to be located in a restricted space. As a result, the chillers could be mounted on the rooftop, rather than in the basement, which was where the plant was located in the original design. This gave Land Securities more usable commercial space.
The chiller manufacturer designed and built a custom package to enclose the chillers and reduce the amount of noise. The condensers are specifically configured to resist damage from hailstorms that can otherwise create significant, accumulating, impact damage to the coils, reducing their performance.
Air conditioning for the buildings is supplied by six 930 kW (nominal) chillers with variable speed drive (VSD)-controlled screw compressors, alongside six smaller chillers with scroll compressors. The project included a bespoke pump, control and chiller sequencing package.
"The software was programmed in-house and designed to maximise energy efficiency and air conditioning performance, as well as extend the working life of the chillers by careful run-time sequencing," says Danny Lear, specification and solutions manager at Carrier UK. "We were able to carry out full witness testing of working chillers at our facility in France, ensuring the solution met the specification fully."
After installation, Carrier's service team will, under a full-maintenance contract, ensure the chillers are maintained at peak performance level. The six screw compressor chillers are supplied with integral control that combines variable-speed condenser fans with variable-speed screw compressors, enabling close matching of cooling output to current load conditions. The constant control of the onboard intelligent control system, claims Carrier, enables the chiller to operate with very good part-load efficiency.
With the ability to vary both condenser fan speed and compressor speed in response to constantly changing demand, the chiller can continue to operate in its 'sweet spot' in terms of performance and energy efficiency. Carrier asserts it delivers a full-load energy efficiency ratio (EER) of up to 3.4 and a European seasonal energy efficiency ratio (ESEER) up to 4.9. Through a control system, building owners can monitor log performance data from the chiller via a web browser.
Newly introduced software optimises the use of compressors, fans and cooling circuits by constantly calculating the most efficient fan speed and water-flow rate, based on the current load and ambient conditions, and controls them to main appropriate refrigerant operating pressures through continuous feedback and adjustment.

Invasive species may soon wipe out Shola vegetation from Nilgiris: Report
Alarming expansion of exotic and tea plantations threaten native dry deciduous, moist deciduous and thorn forests and grasslands there
By Ishan Kukreti
Last Updated: Thursday 19 September 2019

Expanding plantains like tea and eucalyptus along with exotic and invasive species in the Nilgiris can wipe out Shola vegetation, according to a report filed by an expert committee formed by the Madras High Court.
This change in vegetation will result in loss of water sources and is already leading to massive landslides, read the interim report Down To Earth had access to.
"The Shola vegetation has become relict in Ooty Nilgiris and may vanish soon as a result of exotics and tea plantations," it added.
The committee recognises the deleterious impact of invasive species like eucalyptus, tea plantations and wattle and naturalised alien species like Lantana camara, Opuntia stricta, Chromolaena odorata, Parthenium hysterophorus and Senna spectabilis on the Shola forest and grasslands.
"The wattle is replacing grasslands and Shola forests. The plantations of Eucalyptus, pines and cupressus have virtually wiped out grasslands and sholas. The massive tea gardens also replaced the vegetation," found the committee.
The Shola vegetation are tropical montane forests found in the Western Ghats separated by rolling grasslands in high altitudes.
The expert committee visited the Mudumalai Tiger Reserve on August 21, 2019. Around 60 per cent (690 square kilometres) of the entire core and buffer area of the reserve is under invasion, found the committee.
Three petitions were filed in the Madurai bench of the high court in 2014, 2016 and 2017 to draw the court's attention to this invasion. The petitions were later moved to the Madras High Court, which, on January 11, formed an expert committee to look into the issue.
The domination of invasive species in the Western Ghats was between 65 and 75 per cent, according to data presented by the state government during the January 11 hearing.
No secondary or fresh growth of indigenous trees, plants or grass, which serve as food for elephants, was seen in areas occupied by invasive species, the government said in court.
Moreover, the attempts made by the forest department to manage the invasive alien species has had little or no success, according to the report.
"Removal of exotics and invasive alien species and subsequent ecological restoration of weed-free landscapes requires well-knitted management structure and resources," the committee suggested in the report.
The committee recommended that there is an urgent need to map the extent of exotic plantations, spread of invasive alien species and loss of grasslands in each forest division of the Nilgiris.

Do I have a formal business in order to participate? I am currently in the process of starting a business, i.e writing the business plan, legalizing the name, etc.
No you do not need to have a formal business plan to participate.
So does the course focus more on how to start a business or how to grow a business?
Hi Denise! Currently, scholarships are not available- yet the tradeoff of paying $100.00 to receive $5,000 is a benefit. Most loans that are funded require a loan processing fee in order to receive funding. This is a great all inclusive program to invest in yourself.
I don't doubt the value, I'm on a fixed-income (disability) the tuition is more than ten-percent of my month. Thanks for your prompt response!
The money is a loan that has to be paid back?
Hi Alyssa! The $5,000 funding is awarded as a prize and is not a loan that has to be paid back.
Do you have to pay the $5000.00 back?
Hi LaKisha! The $5,000 funding is awarded as a prize and is not a loan that has to be paid back.
Is there a way to see all of the questions outside of google docs to prepare before submitting?
Do all participants receive $5,000 at the end, or will one person receive the prize money?
Hi Andrena! The $5,000 prize funding is offered to the 1st place winner of the PROSPECTUS Pitch Competition. Additional prizes are awarded to others who compete and place in the competition.
Is this course offered once a year?
Hi Chrycka! For now, PROSPECTUS is only being offered at this time. We look forward to bringing in additional cohorts in the near future.
Is there a link to pay for the registration? I submitted the form but was not able to submit the money at the same time.
