Hertha Berlin's chances of keeping hold of Liverpool midfielder Marko Grujic hinge on the club qualifying for Europe, with a whole host of other sides already eyeing loaning him from the Reds next season.
The Bundesliga outfit have been delighted with Grujic's performances in the Bundesliga and are desperate to make sure he stays.
Liverpool are firmly opposed to selling Grujic, however the Reds could loan him out again as he is not expected to feature in Jurgen Klopp's immediate first team plans.
According to German daily Bild, Hertha Berlin held a secret meeting with Liverpool sporting director Michael Edwards earlier this week on the sidelines of the club's German Cup loss against Bayern Munich.
It is now claimed that Hertha Berlin's chances of landing Grujic on loan for next season rest on whether they can qualify for Europe.
Should Hertha Berlin miss out, the likelihood is that Grujic will be sent elsewhere.
No fewer than ten sides, including several in the Bundesliga, have already enquired about loaning Grujic.
Grujic clocked up all 120 minutes for Hertha Berlin in their German Cup loss against Bayern Munich.

Pennsylvania governor's inauguration draws opponents of fracking

Democrat Tom Wolf was inaugurated today as the new governor of Pennsylvania, after defeating the Republican incumbent, Tom Corbett. Both are big supporters of fracking for natural gas, an industrial process that is turning many of the state's rural areas into industrial zones, and some say, sacrifice zones. Protesters both inside and outside the ceremony at the state capital, Harrisburg, called loudly for a ban on fracking, even while many of the Big Green groups have vowed to work with the new governor on the issue. Melinda Tuhus reports.
A couple hundred people with Pennsylvanians Against Fracking yelled chants during the inauguration ceremony from a so-called "free speech area" behind the official site. Eight others with Stop Poisoning Pennsylvania blew whistles and yelled for a ban from among the pro-Wolf throngs at the ceremony, and were arrested.
In his ten-minute speech, the new governor highlighted Pennsylvania's relationship with the fossil fuel industry, stating the first commercial oil well was drilled here. He said the state is "also blessed with an abundance of natural resources: gas, timber, coal, sun, wind, fresh water."
Contamination of drinking water has accompanied the fracking process, though it hasn't been definitively proven to be caused by fracking. Protesters carried a huge sign stating "We Can't Drink Money."
Air contamination is another issue.
Penni Lechner and her daughter live in western Pennsylvania surrounded by 25 fracking wells within a two-mile radius. She says a health monitoring group recently installed an air monitor in her home, which measures from good to hazardous air quality.
"When they were working on the most current recent well pad, it has reached hazardous and it was at very unhealthy and hazardous most of the time they were working," Lechner told FSRN. "My daughter had headaches the entire month, she was sick and we both lost our voices. And for about a month now there hasn't been any activity, the air with them not working has not gone above moderate. Our headaches have ceased, we got our voices back and we're feeling better."
According to a 2014 Quinnipiac Poll, 56 percent of Pennsylvanians support fracking. "And we support it because it's a game-changing energy that's being brought to the U.S. and it's domestic," said a celebrant at the inauguration from the Pittsburgh area, who declined to give his name. "It's allowing us to be independent of foreign sources of energy."
Pennsylvania is home to more than 8,000 fracking wells. In December, neighboring New York state banned fracking within its borders. Travis Windle, spokesperson for the Pennsylvania-based Marcellus Shale Coalition, points to the years-long moratorium on fracking in New York, saying the policy "has been in place in a de facto sense for the better part of five years. So from a practical standpoint, from a material standpoint, it shouldn't and likely won't have any impact on what's going on in the Commonwealth."
Near the end of his speech, Governor Wolf addressed fracking opponents, telling the protesters to help "develop these resources in a way that is clean, safe and sustainable."
But they say the environmental problems associated with fracking make it inherently unsafe, and after the inauguration several people took suitcases marked Fracking Refugees to the open house at the Governor's mansion. They say their homes are no longer safe so they'd like to move into the mansion, especially since the governor has said he has no plans to live there.
Randy Moyer had planned to visit the governor. He worked for a fracking waste company for four months in 2011, until severe health problems forced him to quit. "Flowback water got into my boots and up my feet and into my skin, and from then on all's I had was rashes, headaches, irregular heartbeat, vision problems, ears leaked," he told FSRN via a telephone interview. "It's like being on fire 24 hours a day for two years, and nobody's putting you out. It's painful. Everything I've got is all documented through doctors. I have pictures ever since I got this stuff. He needs to see what fracking does to people."
Moyer was unable to attend Inauguration Day events due to hospitalization.
Governor Wolf has tapped the head of the environmental group PennFuture for the top environmental position in his administration, and several Big Green groups have pledged to work with him.

World Parkinson's Day: Reasons for hope
TagsBras, Chu, Coetzee, Guerreiro, L. Brundin, Labrie, Ma, Moore, P. Brundin, Parkinson's disease, VARI
In honor of World Parkinson's Day, we asked scientists in our Center for Neurodegenerative Science what makes them most hopeful and most excited for the future of Parkinson's research and treatment. Here's what they said.
Dr. Patrik Brundin
"This year, there are three major developments in Parkinson's disease that stand out as particularly important and exciting.
First, we are increasingly recognizing that Parkinson's disease is heterogeneous in nature, and varies greatly between patients in terms of symptom profile, rate of progression and neuropathology. This means that future clinical trials can be designed to be more 'personalized,' which will increase the chances of finding effective treatments that slow worsening of symptoms.
Second, the research field is now more actively addressing possible triggers of the disease process in an attempt to identify novel and important disease-causing factors (such as environmental, infectious or lifestyle-related) that act on top of a person's genetic risk profile.
Third, in attempts to slow disease progression, there is now a wide range of experimental treatments in clinical development that target a variety of processes that might contribute to the disease. I am hopeful that one or more of these trials will be successful. This in itself can revolutionize therapy, and also open up the door for even more refined drugs as well as combination treatments that dramatically slow the rate of decline in patients."
Patrik Brundin, M.D., Ph.D., Director, Center for Neurodegenerative Science
Dr. Lena Brundin
"I think it is exciting that patients are very proactive and able to provide a lot of insightful information about their symptoms to scientists and doctors that may be useful in understanding the causes of the disease. I am also excited that inflammation is becoming more and more considered as a potential trigger or cause of disease rather than merely a bystander effect of neurodegeneration."
Lena Brundin, M.D., Ph.D., Associate Professor
Dr. Hong-Yuan Chu
"One of the most exciting things in my view is integrating new technology into our research, which helps us reveal how the brain rewires itself in Parkinson's. What we find could help us figure out ways to repair damage and restore brain function in the future."
Hong-Yuan Chu, Ph.D., Assistant Professor
Dr. Gerry Coetzee
"Genetic epidemiologists recently discovered more than 90 genes that influence Parkinson's disease. Although PD is a disease of the elderly, these genes may affect a person throughout their entire lives."
Gerry Coetzee, Ph.D., Professor
Dr. José Brás and Dr. Rita Guerreiro
"For the first time, we are able to study the effects of DNA variability with unprecedented resolution at the cellular level. This is completely transformative for the field and will open doors for new therapeutic interventions in Parkinson's disease."
José Brás, Ph.D., Associate Professor
Rita Guerreiro, Ph.D., Associate Professor
Dr. Viviane Labrie
"What I'm most excited about is the growing understanding that Parkinson's may begin, at least in part, in other areas of the body outside of the brain. This opens the door to developing new therapies that don't just target the destruction of neurons but that also target the mechanisms that may be occurring in places that contribute to Parkinson's, such as the GI tract, the appendix and the immune system."
Viviane Labrie, Ph.D., Assistant Professor
Dr. Jiyan Ma
"Tremendous advances have been made in understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of these diseases. What is important for us now is to translate this knowledge into something that is going to benefit patients."
Jiyan Ma, Ph.D., Professor
Dr. Darren Moore
"I am most excited about the emergence in recent years of a number of promising drug targets for therapeutic disease modification in Parkinson's disease that represent a diverse array of cellular pathways and therapeutic strategies. These targets have stemmed from increasing understanding of the genetic basis of PD and the biological pathways and processes that these genes regulate. I am extremely optimistic about ongoing and future drug discovery efforts for treating PD."

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A former Nashville-area high school football player has been sentenced to three years' probation for making racially motivated threats to an African-American assistant coach at the school.
The U.S. attorney's office says 20-year-old Jonathan Caine was sentenced Monday in U.S. District Court in Nashville. He was charged with a misdemeanor hate crime and pleaded guilty to interfering with a federally protected right in November.
Prosecutors say Caine made repeated anonymous threats to the victim and other school officials.
The victim and the high school where he works were not identified.
The plea agreement also requires that Caine be placed on home confinement for two months, complete a comprehensive substance abuse and treatment program and complete 520 hours of community service directed at needy minority communities.

Paige Brown Jarreau is a biological engineer turned journalist and science communicator. She has an M.S. in Biological & Agricultural Engineering, but is now getting her PhD in mass communication. She conducts research at the intersection of science journalism, science communication and new media. She is also a science blogger at SciLogs.com. Talk to her on Twitter @FromTheLabBench.
Science blogging is one of those curious social media phenomena that has moved mainstream in the science news ecosystem. Once known as ranty opinion forums, blogs have become one of the best resources of science and science communication online. Science blogs have spread their influence into the worlds of scientific publishing, science journalism, science policy and popular science. But as they have, we could argue that science bloggers themselves are becoming more accountable to the broader science news ecosystem, even more professionalized. What do modern science blogging practices and values look like? How are science bloggers deciding what to cover, and what impact are these decisions having? What does the modern science blogging network look like, and how are bloggers being rewarded for their dogged fixing of science on the internet?
This is, in a nut graph, the subject of my PhD dissertation in science communication at the Manship School of Mass Communication, Louisiana State University. But the phenomenon of using social media to communicate science goes beyond the subject of my research – it is increasingly becoming a way of doing my research as well. Over the past few months, I've been using the Twitter hashtag #MySciBlog to collect data from science bloggers, recruit them for in-depth interviews, and share excerpts from interviews. And on Saturday, October 25, I launched my first Experiment.com project for crowd-funding my scientific research, with a commitment to publish my results open access.
The goal of my research project at Experiment.com is to understand how science bloggers choose what to write about. The role of science blogging and science bloggers is expanding and diversifying. More Americans get their science news online and via social media than ever, and much of that is now coming from science blogs. And yet, relatively little research has targeted the practices, routines and values of science bloggers. Traditionally, science bloggers have been the champions of fighting bad science on the internet. But today, they are so much more. Who are science bloggers? What do they do? How do they decide what to blog about?
I'm conducting a large-scale online survey to answer these and other questions, following over 50 in-depth interviews I've conducted with science bloggers so far for my dissertation. My upcoming survey of science bloggers includes over 70 intriguing questions. But I need to offer a small financial incentive to help science bloggers, who often make little money despite their important task in the science news ecosystem, complete my survey. A goal of $1,000 for this project will allow me to give a $5 incentive to at least 200 science bloggers.
That's where Experiment.com comes in. It's a digital science crowd-funding platform with excellent past success in bringing research to life, and users can decide what research they want to see funded.
I'll be publishing the results of my survey open access. My Experiment page also allows me to update you with lab notes as my research continues. I recently published a lab note inviting others to give input into my science blogger survey questions, so please feel free to give me feedback. Here's to a new future in conducting and sharing science online. I hope you join me!

California's Age of Consent, and What it Means for You
Understanding Consent in California
Since 2014, California has defined consent as an "affirmative and ongoing" process for any sexual activity. This standard is useful for determining what counts as rape among adults but has no bearing on sexual activities where at least one party is a minor (18 years or younger). California's age of consent law holds that anyone under 18 cannot consent to sex—so even a "yes" doesn't count as the affirmative consent lawmakers are looking for. The short version of California's age of consent law is that anyone who has sex with another person under 18, even if that person is also under 18, has committed a crime. But the issue is much more complex than that.
Drawing the Lines: What Counts as Sex?
California law is rather fractured when it comes to addressing sex acts with anyone under the age of consent. The code defining statutory rape does not define sexual intercourse, but the contents of other codes that prohibit sexual assault designate separate consequences for instances of penetrative anal sex where at least one of the parties is under the age of consent. A third set of penalties addresses "oral copulation" and a fourth set covers "lewd and lascivious acts" performed with children under the age of 14.
Looking at the way different sex acts are addressed by our state code, "statutory rape" does not apply to oral or anal sex acts, and the classification of non-penetrative sex acts can be questioned. This makes a bigger difference than you might think, as the law provides different rules and sentences for statutory rape than for other "lewd and lascivious acts" with a minor.
Age Differences and Sex Acts
Sexual Intercourse (Statutory Rape)
The charges for having sexual intercourse (presumably, under the state's definition, penetrative sex between a male and female) are as follows:
A misdemeanor if both parties are 3 or fewer years apart in age
A misdemeanor or a felony if one party engages in intercourse with someone who is more than 3 years younger than them
A misdemeanor or felony if one party is over the age of 21 and the other is under the age of 16
The difference between conviction for a misdemeanor and conviction for a felony is huge; despite the fact that felony violations can lead to sentences of up to three years in jail, some instances of statutory rape may require perpetrators to register as sex offenders. The judge, jury, and prosecution have a large amount of leeway in any statutory rape cases if the parties are more than 3 years apart because the difference between misdemeanor and felony statutory rape has not been codified.
Other Penetrative Sex
Penetrative sex that does not involve vaginal penetration adheres to different statutes and penalties, as oral sex acts. They are charged and punished as follows:
Any acts where one or more parties are under 18 are punishable by up to a year in state prison or county jail
If one party is over 21 and the other under 16, the adult party is guilty of a felony
Engagements with one party who is 10 or more years older than a partner who is under the age of 14 can be punished by 3, 6, or 8 years in state prison
Though similar to statutory rape laws, the state does not distinguish between acts involving people who are less than 3 years apart in age and acts involving people who are more than three years apart in age. Aside from the specific age limits named in the law, all other acts involving minors are prosecuted as misdemeanors.
The 14-Year-Old Rule
You may notice that the statutes for anal and oral sex address any acts with children under 14 years of age, while the statutory rape ones only look at the younger party's age if the older party is over 21. To reinforce the gravity of engaging in sexual activity with a child under 14 years of age, the state also has another statute that applies to the above laws and expands the definition of sexual activity for this group.
Any person who has sex with a minor under the age of 14 will be charged with a felony and may serve 3, 6, or 8 years in prison if convicted. They will also have to register as a sex offender in California, a requirement that may have devastating effects on their lives and careers.
This rule also gives the state more leeway to convict someone for non-penetrative sex acts, citing any conduct performed "with the intent of arousing, appealing to, or gratifying the lust, passions, or sexual desires" of either party. The law can therefore cover cases of groping, exposure, or non-penetrative sexual activity.
Defending Yourself Against Accusations of Sex with a Minor
With the differences in penalties and the fluidity of California law regarding sexual activity with a minor, it's easy to see how minute details matter in the courtroom. A felony conviction, not to mention registration as a sex offender, can ruin your life forever. If you've been accused of engaging in sexual activity with a minor, it's essential to hire a lawyer who can give your case personalized attention.

DATE/TIME: Saturday, October 26 @ 2:00PM
ABOUT/BIO:
George Noory, host of the nationally syndicated program, Coast to Coast AM, says if he weren't a national radio talk show host he'd be in politics. Heard by millions of listeners, Coast To Coast AM airs on approximately 564 stations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and Guam. While hosting The Nighthawk, a wildly successful, late-night program on KTRS in St. Louis, Noory was recruited by Premiere Radio Networks to guest host on Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell. He became the permanent host of the phenomenally successful over-night program on January 1, 2003, following Bell's retirement. Since then, Noory's audience has continued to grow.
Noory captivates program listeners with his discussions of paranormal phenomena, time travel, alien abductions, conspiracies and all things curious and unexplained. He is driven, he has said, by the desire to solve the great mysteries of our time. From his first days as a radio broadcaster he says, "I've wanted to cover stories that the mainstream media never touch—the unusual, the paranormal and things like that. I learned that broadcast was the best business for exploring these issues, and I've been doing it for 33 years." He dates his interest in these matters to a book by Walter Sullivan, We Are Not Alone, that his mother gave him when he was 13. He was hooked. Prior to his late-night show on KTRS, Noory had an extensive broadcast career. He started in radio at WCAR-AM in Detroit where his first-ever interview was with nuclear physicist and UFO expert Stanton Friedman. From 1974-1978, he served as news producer and executive news producer at WJBK-TV. At age 28, he became the youngest major market news director in the country at KMSP-TV in Minneapolis. Noory was also the director of news planning and development at KSTP-TV in Minneapolis, was news director at KSDK-TV in St. Louis and the recipient of three Emmy Awards while a news executive. Noory released his first book in 2006. Worker In The Light: Unlock Your Five Senses And Liberate Your Limitless Potential, co-written by best-selling author William J. Birnes, is Noory's revolutionary guide to spiritual enlightenment, human empowerment, ultimate productivity and absolute happiness. Noory and Birnes co-authored a follow up in 2009 entitled Journey to the Light, in which they present amazing first-hand accounts of how ordinary people changed their own lives, transcended their doubts and fears, and unlocked the secrets to their spiritual growth. In October 2011, Noory released his third book, Talking To The Dead. Co-written by Rosemary Ellen Guiley, a leading expert on the paranormal and supernatural, the book explores the colorful history and personalities behind spirit communications, weaving together spirituality, metaphysics, science and technology.
Noory hosts Beyond Belief, a weekly Internet-based TV show, and has also appeared on the History Channel's Ancient Aliens, SYFY, the Larry King Show and numerous others. He was born, raised and educated in Detroit and graduated from the University of Detroit in 1972 with a bachelor's degree in Communications.

Is "aha" an appropriate answer to "thank you"?
I have heard many native speakers in the United states answer with a brief and cold "aha" when someone says "thank you". Is it really appropriate to answer like that? I myself feel offended when I receive such a response from a teacher or someone I don't know.
formality conversation
HajeenHajeen
It seems to depend on the intonation and facial expression. It may also be a wave of dismissal, like the Spanish response De nada (literally, 'of nothing'), or the American Don't mention it, Think nothing of it, It was nothing). Manners are different in every culture; no doubt some of yours are bothering Americans, too, but they're too polite to mention it. – John Lawler Mar 19 '15 at 16:14
Oh, and I don't understand your last sentence at all; it appears to be put together from parts that don't fit. – John Lawler Mar 19 '15 at 16:14

Further related: What is the meaning of "don't mention it" (in response to "thank you")?, Is it right to say "Thank you" in the response of "Thank you"?, Is "not at all" still alive and doing well? – choster Mar 19 '15 at 16:58
In addition to the previous examples of "don't mention it", I often times hear people say "Yep" or "You betcha". It's an idiomatic expression. – SUM GUY Mar 19 '15 at 19:20
I think what you are actually hearing is a short, simple "uh-huh", which is intended as an acknowledgement that they have received your thanks and consider the exchange complete. It is not intended to be rude; in fact, ignoring someone who says "thanks" is much ruder. It's very informal, and is probably mostly used when whatever answer they gave that prompted you to thank them was a small, barely noteworthy thing.
Other utterances that you may hear include:
no prob
mm-hmm (or even just mmm)
(a head nod)
HellionHellion
This. And don't forget mm-hmm as well. – Robusto Mar 19 '15 at 16:51
I knew I'd forgotten one. :-) – Hellion Mar 19 '15 at 16:55
Edited [The original post asked for ah, not aha.]
To a peer or a social inferior, aha may indeed be appropriate in casual situations— in fact, a mere mmm or wave of the hand would be sufficient. It is an acknowledgement of the thanks, but simultaneously a dismissal of it as if it were unnecessary.
I almost never hear you're welcome, the conventional response, except in more formal situations or where the respondent is expressing an extra level of deference (for instance, if I thank a waitress for her attentive service).
I don't know any Americans who would say ah (/ä/), but I know some who might dismiss it with a mmm or uh-huh or eh (/e/), accompanied by a nod or shrug or wave of the hand, in casual exchanges with a peer.
Note that this eh is different from eh (/eɪ/) the interjection used to express surprise or seek agreement. It rhymes with, and can sometimes be interchanged with, meh.
There are numerous ways an English speaker may reply to a "thank-you" and the intent is almost never to offend; however, due to cultural differences, it seems that responses like eh or no problem seem to offend some.
The eh-er is trying to express that whatever it is that inspired the expression of thanks was a small matter, and that the thankful person should therefore not feel that he or she has any obligations on account of it, thus don't worry about it, it's no big [deal], no worries, no bother, not at all, don't mention it, and so on.
chosterchoster
I would not use meh to say thank you unless what I offered was of questionable value. To me, meh is kind of shorthand for "Yeah, well . . ." – Robusto Mar 19 '15 at 16:45
@Robusto Not ever for thank you, but certainly for you're welcome. Naw or Nahh is another. – choster Mar 19 '15 at 16:47
Yeah, I gather from some Millennial communications that I've intercepted that "meh" is dismissive, and would therefore not be a polite response to "Thank you". – Hot Licks Mar 19 '15 at 17:14
I don't see an un-hunh or a sure as a dismissal- rather it's a succinct acknowledgement or acceptance of the thanks given. – Spehro Pefhany Apr 27 '15 at 14:18
I tell you that aha is much more respectable than no response at all , it is American normal way of responding to thank you , I am myself not originally American , I notice that mostly non-Americans are offended by this normal aha , I had a non-American friend who was going really crazy if americans said aha after he said thanks ...I am sure if he had a compilation video of how americans usually respond to thank you , he would be no more mad at hearing aha

It Seems True Cross-Play Is Finally Coming to PlayStation 4
Sony's dragged their feet on this for years, but there are signs the wait is over.
by Patrick Klepek
Image courtesy of Sony
The dream of cross-play, allowing people to play the same game across different platforms, is nearly here. Buried in a Wired interview about Sony's ongoing flirtation with cloud gaming, there's a note about how "the PS4's cross-play efforts have officially moved out of the beta stage," starting with games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. (Hat tip to IGN for noticing.)
Sony did not respond to a request for comment as of this writing, but there's other noteworthy evidence.
Not long after the Wired piece went up, it was announced PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds would begin testing "cross platform play" between Xbox One and PlayStation 4 users.
"We are beyond thrilled to unify the two console platforms into one matchmaking pool and are looking forward to your feedback and reports," read a patch note issued earlier today.
That suggests we should be hearing more soon, and while it's certainly a possibility older games patch in cross-play support, more than likely it's a trend we'll see for newer games.
No company has dragged their feet on cross-play than Sony. When Microsoft showed interest in adding cross-play, a move meant to cynically poke Sony as much as it was the right thing to do, Sony resisted. But the unexpected explosion of Fortnite, a game that proved hugely popular no matter what platform it was on, started thawing the corporate ice, and soon, a partnership between Microsoft and Nintendo unlocking cross-play for a number of games on both Switch and Xbox, like Fortnite and Rocket League, kept the ball rolling.
In 2018, Sony announced it would allow cross-play. In early 2019, it said cross-play was definitely a thing and now the onus was on developers to implement it, which a number of developers actively pushed back on. Hopefully, the wait is over. Now, just add it to Destiny.
Follow Patrick on Twitter. If you've know why it's taken so long to get cross-play on PlayStation, drop an email: patrick.klepek@vice.com. He's also available privately on Signal.

The cozy little sandy beach of Tersanas is located only 13 km from the picturesque town of Chania and 8 km from the airport. Tersanas is a great option for families with young children thanks to its turquoise shallow and clam waters, the shaded areas under the large tamarisk trees, the facilities (showers, umbrellas, sunbeds, etc.) and its 'compact' size. When it comes to a family day on the beach, nothing could be more important than children's entertainment and safety. For the parents, there is a small beach bar literally on the water where they can sit and enjoy cold drinks and snacks without losing their children from their sight due to the size of the beach. During the weekends, especially in August, the beach might become a bit busy due to its increased popularity among families.


1) "Century Boy" and "Century Toy" are more or less direct references to the lyrics of BUCK-TICK's song "21st Cherry Boy," which was first released as a single in 2001. "21st Cherry Boy" itself was a sort of reference/homage to T-Rex's hit song "20th Century Boy."
2) "Jet-Coaster" is a Japanese term for roller coaster. "Jonathan" is an ambiguous reference, but there is some discussion that the named was pulled from the main character in the first story arc of the hit manga series Jojo no Kimyou na Bouken ("Jojo's Bizarre Adventure"), which was immensely popular, especially among Buck-Tick's generation.

jr7(2) (2) Citations may not be used for matters of an inappropriate, controversial, or partisan political nature.
jr7(3) (3) Each house shall establish a procedure for reviewing each proposed citation, whether originating in that house or received from the other house with the request for concurrence, for its compliance with subs. (1), (1m), and (2).

"The search for price cuts in the oilfield service industry"
In the latest DCube version (June 2015) short term oilfield service purchases are expected at -8.8% CAGR for 2014-2016. Largest market contraction expected in EPCI.
The July 2015 version of SCube shows that the announced spend by E&P companies have materialized into -18% revenue decline in the first quarter of 2015 compared to last quarter of 2014. Worst is it for companies exposed to North America where first quarter is down with -25%.
The June 2015 RigCube version shows a decrease of 26 units in floater demand from 2014 (262) to 2015 (236). Jackups to be decreased with 36 units from 2014 (408) to 2015 (372).
As revenues are falling drastically for most of the service companies, we see all companies fight heroically to cut their costs faster than the revenue is decreasing, to secure stable margins. One dramatic consequence is the numerous lay-offs in the service industry, which are now approaching the levels of 2010.
Figure 1 depicts the full-time-equivalents (FTE) of workers in the top 30 service companies with declared cuts in their work force. These companies had an aggregated 250 USD Billion in revenues and about 730,000 employees in 2014. As E&P spending rose significantly by 10% annually from 2010 to 2013, so did the number of people employed in the service industry. Growth in revenues and manpower was key to maintain and increase market share in a growing market. In some regions it was challenging to find qualified people such as geologists and petrophysicists. As a consequence, labor costs increased and helped to fuel the cost escalations in the industry. After years of extraordinary growth of employees and costs, E&P companies were set to do something as the oil price was more or less stable. 2014 showed that activity was coming down as E&P companies started to preserve cash. When the early signs of the falling oil price were evident in the last half of 2014, companies were forced to perform larger organizational improvements in their work stock. So far into 2015 there have been announced lay-offs close to 13% of the work stock at the largest service companies. Assuming that these lay-offs are very much representative for the rest of industry, we would expect the top 400 service companies to cut as much as 200,000 workers over the period of 2015-2016. Important to note is that the cut in the workforce will not be pure cuts of full-time employees, but will also be effectuated by natural turn-over (retirements and resignations), less recruiting and reduced contractual workers.
In the North Sea, there has been substantial media focus on the large cuts in the service industry. The offshore sector in this mature basin is being highly impacted by low oil prices, and activity has slowed down dramatically. More than 400,000 people are employed in Norway and the United Kingdom in the service industry and the announced reductions are close to 40,000. Breaking down the cuts in Norway down to segments reveals that most of the cuts are within Maintenance and Operations, which is also the largest cost contributor for E&P companies in the North Sea. Here we see Aibel and Aker Solutions being impacted by imposed MMO scope reductions and efficiency programs. The EPCI lay-offs are close in size to the lay-offs in Maintenance and Operations. Recent EPC awards to Asian yards and few new platforms in sight, enforces Norwegian EPC contractors to reduce their staff significantly.
Even though the workforce is cut dramatically in the service industry, it is a necessary means to streamline the business, increase the efficiency and bring down the cost of oil and gas activities after years of unsustainable growth. However, it is important that the competence is kept and that ambitious talented young people are let into the industry. Because the market will pick up again as it always does after recessions.


The CD-ROM version includes both Pagan: Ultima VIII and the optional Pagan: Ultima VIII - Speech Pack.
At least in Europe, there were two different releases of the CD-ROM edition (not counting the budget releases). The first one came in the same box as the floppy disk release, with a "CD-ROM" sticker added to distinguish it from the floppy-based version. It included the speech pack, but was the same otherwise.
The second version had a redesigned box and was released in 1995. Unlike the first CD-ROM edition, this one was fully patched to fix all the bugs and plot holes that the game originally had.

NC horse tests positive for equine infectious anemia
(Pexels)
Published: Nov. 30, 2022 at 2:14 PM EST
RALEIGH, N.C. (FOX Carolina) - Officials with the N.C. Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (NCDA) said a horse in North Carolina tested positive for equine infectious anemia (EIA).
According to officials, a horse in Henderson County was also tested and officials are waiting for results.
Officials said the horse in Surry County tested positive but there is no epidemiological link between the two cases at this time.
Equine infectious anemia is an incurable disease commonly spread by biting flies and ticks of shared medical equipment between equines such as horse, donkeys and mules.
The disease was discovered through collaborative efforts by private veterinary practitioners, NCDA & CS Veterinary Division field staff, the N.C. Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory in Raleigh and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The cases mentioned above are the first documents in North Carolina since August 2017.
"Both facilities are under quarantine, which restricts movement of equine until testing is completed by the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services and the epidemiological investigation is further along," said Dr. Catherine Harris, director of Livestock Health Programs. "The remaining equines will be observed and retested in 60 days. We are also monitoring neighboring facilities for the disease."
Clinical signs of the disease include: fever, weakness, edema, weight loss, anemia and death.
Officials said if infected, some equine might not show symptoms.
However to help prevent infection, follow these guidelines:
· Use sterile, disposable needles and syringes, one per horse, for all vaccines and medications.
· Test all horses for EIA every year and at the time they enter a new premises.
· Keep stables and other facilities sanitary. Regularly clean stalls and properly dispose of manure away from horse stabling areas.
· Implement approved insect controls, such as insecticides and good drainage of standing water, to minimize fly presence.
· Only participate in events that require evidence of negative Coggins test.
· Isolate new horses on a property until they are tested for EIA.
· Never mix infected and healthy animals. Do not breed horses infected with EIA.
Officials said this disease does not affect people.
For more information about EIA or other reportable animal diseases please call the Veterinary Division at 919-707-3250.

We realized that all of these ideas look good in print, but how does that play out in real, every day life? We have asked that question many times, but have not let it discourage us. Steps of Justice has responded to the needs that are brought before us, and with the help of many, we have been able to see justice roll down like a river into the lives of others. Here are a few projects we have had the honor or working with.
7 homes funded and built by volunteer teams.
Painted the Children at Risk center in 2015 with a volunteer team.
Funded 5 students to attend high school and college to pursue careers in medicine and law.
Ran sanitation clinics and kids programs each year on our Cambodia trips.
Funded and helped build 6 homes for the poor in Cambodia.
Freely In Hope– This ministry is a faith-based nonprofit organization focused on restoring dignity with survivors of sexual violence through holistic educational opportunities and platforms for dreams to be fulfilled. Last year through our Advent Conspiracy fundraiser, we were able to send $3825 to help with the purchase of Freely In Hopes new center. This will help the ministry grow and serve more women.
YWAM Ships– In 2015 Cyclone Pam devastated Vanuatu leaving many without clean, life giving water. We partnered with YWAM Ships in Kona, HI to bring $3000 worth of water filters to the county. This was funded by individuals like you and served 100's of people in the affected areas.
YWAM Blankenburg, Germany– Thanks to the generosity of others, we were able to help serve incoming Syrian Refugees learn German. We worked with YWAM Blankenburg, Germany and helped with the purchase of German language software. They are using this software to teach newly arrived individuals German. It was a privilege to serve this community in practical ways.
Refugee programs – Currently we are partnering with a few different churches and non profits in San Diego California, where we are serving newly arrived families with refugee status. We are helping children and adults register for school, which is important as it helps kids learn english, continue their education, and helps them with job training and integrates them into American Culture. It is an honor to serve this community. We also run a weekly youth group for Syrian boy's, providing a safe space for these students to be themselves and learn truths.
Water Filtration Project– Over the past few years Steps of Justice has provided clean water for hundreds of families in Haiti and Cambodia. We have done this through the help of donors like you, and the fine folks with Sawyer Water Filters. Over the past two summers (2017-2018), we have handed out over 100 filters, and helped facilitate a water filtration seminar to a small village outside of Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Today, there is a church in that village, as a result of the villagers seeing God's care for them.
Each year we are taking teams to Cambodia, as well as San Diego. We would love for you to join us on one of these trips.

The act of forgiving - One of the girls killed in the bombing of the church in Alabama was my cousin
Survivor of KKK Baptist Church bombing: "I had to forgive"
(CBS News) BIRMINGHAM, Ala.- A turning point in the Civil Rights movement came 50 years ago when members of the Ku Klux Klan bombed a black church in Birmingham, Alabama.
Four young girls were killed.
And nationwide outrage led to the passage of the Civil Rights Act one year later.
Today, President Obama signed a law to honor the victims— Denise McNair, Addie Mae Collins, Cynthia Wesley and Carol Robertson with the congressional gold medal.
House votes to award Congressional Gold Medal to girls killed in 1963 bombing Church bombed in '63 now a landmark A fifth girl survived the blast.
For Sarah Collins Rudolph, entering the 16th Street Baptist Church is still painful — because this is where 122 sticks of dynamite blew a gaping hole in the wall and killed four girls — including Sarah's sister Addie.
She spoke about it for the first time on camera, with CBS News' Bill Plante.
Sunday School had just ended. It was 10:22 a.m., and the five girls were in the bathroom.
"That is when I heard something go boom! It was so loud and all I could do was jump and say Jesus," said Sarah.
"And all of a sudden I began to call Addie. And I said Addie, Addie. But she never answered," she said.
Addie and the three other girls were dead.
"I just kept wondering, why did they kill Addie? Addie never did anything for someone to kill her," said Sarah.
Rudolph was showered with debris and flying glass. She lay in the hospital, eyes bandaged, for nearly three months. Doctors had to remove her right eye.
She now wears a prosthesis and still has pieces of glass in her left eye.
Fifty years later, Sarah still suffers from what happened.

Dainese ARchivio is a permanent exhibit that presents the ideas, the people, and the projects, that have marked the progress made in the field of safety, sport performance, and design.
In 1968 Lino Dainese started out, together with two friends, for a journey on his Vespa scooter. Destination: London. This experience gave rise to the desire to build that path that would bring Dainese to make concrete contributions to the world of safety in the field of dynamic sports. A history rooted in the world of motorcycling, continued in the championships of the MTB world and Alpine skiing, achieving collaborations that have resulted in Dainese technologies being used in space travel.
Meetings, conferences, testimony of the protagonists of the "Archivio" and much more. DAR is not only an exhibition, but a dynamic enterprise open to dialogue and hands-on experiences.
