Horatio Beeching was born in 1798 in Tonbridge, the second son of Thomas and Elizabeth Beeching. His father had set up the Beeching Banking business at Church Lane which was inherited by Horatio and the rest of the family. Horatio expanded the banking business into Tunbridge Wells, Hastings, St Leonards and Folkestone which was later (in 1890) sold to Lloyds Bank Ltd. Horatio acquired Ferox Hall and the Bordyke estate in 1843 and lived there untill 1855 when he and his second wife moved to Tunbridge Wells where he died in 1878.

Crowns are synthetic caps, usually made of a material like porcelain, placed on the top of a tooth.
Crowns are typically used to restore a tooth's function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root canal. When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth.
Crowns are also used to attach bridges, cover implants, prevent a cracked tooth from becoming worse, or an existing filling is in jeopardy of becoming loose or dislocated. Crowns also serve an aesthetic use, and are applied when a discolored or stained tooth needs to be restored to its natural appearance.
A tooth must usually be reduced in size to accommodate a crown. A cast is made of the existing tooth and an impression is made. The impression is sent to a special lab, which manufactures a custom-designed crown. In some cases, a temporary crown is applied until the permanent crown is ready. Permanent crowns are cemented in place.
Crowns are sometimes confused with veneers, but they are quite different. Veneers are typically applied only to relatively small areas.
Caring For Your Crowns
With proper care, a good quality crown could last up to eight years or longer. It is very important to floss in the area of the crown to avoid excess plaque or collection of debris around the restoration.
Certain behaviors such as jaw clenching or bruxism (teeth grinding) significantly shorten the life of a crown. Moreover, eating brittle foods, ice or hard candy can compromise the adhesion of the crown, or even damage the crown.

Gordon completed his undergraduate studies at Gustavus Adolphus, and went on to graduate from the University of Minnesota, School of Dentistry in 1985.

Tenure Track Program
Tenure Track Programme
The University of Göttingen´s Participation in the Government & Federal States Programme on the Promotion of Early Career Researchers (Tenure Track Programme)
In the framework of the Government & Federal States Programme on the Support of Early Career Researchers, there have been 20 tenure track professorships launched by the University of Göttingen within this first funding period. As a privately funded corporation, the University of Göttingen had already filled 51 professorship positions through tenure track since 2004. "Our successful application has convinced us to go further with the systematic support of early career researchers who are at various career stages and have diverse career goals", said Prof. Beisiegel. In 2015, the University of Göttingen adopted a comprehensive concept for the support of early career researchers in order to present career paths in science in an improved and transparent way. The concept involves the development of the "Section HR Development" for scientific staff. The concept also includes the development of a clear structure for Personnel and the design of framework conditions for positions. Another feature is new offerings for training as well as support and advice with a special focus on improving work-life balance. Further questions and feedback are welcomed by the Head of HR development who is the administrative coordinator of these plans.
Current calls for tenure track professorships at the University of Göttingen can be followed up here.
All national calls in the framework of the tenure track programme can be found here.

Besides in educational energy related programmes for undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate students, Department of Power Systems has been actively involved for many years in analyses linked with establishment of new strategies for energy sector and power system development for the Republic of Croatia. It has experience in preparing medium and long-term electricity generation development plan for power system, performing comparisons of energy, economic and environmental characteristics of different options for electric power generating, preparing studies for rational use of energy, energy savings and renewable energy sources (RES) utilisation. The main research directions are to create analytical and software tools, which will enable a smooth transition to liberalized electricity market in Croatia, to analyse technical, economic and environmental aspects of various RES technologies, examine the role and support mechanisms for RES within a liberalised market, develop power system planning methods under uncertain conditions and examine the role of decentralised energy sources in increasing power supply reliability and efficiency. Significant share of activates is directed towards energy end-use efficiency in industrial and service sector, support for policy making in this field and research on possible energy efficiency improvements and their contribution to the security of energy supply in Croatia, region and the EU. The Department is a founder of the expert postgraduate study entitled "Energy Efficiency and Environment".


I just want to ask if there is a database like GEO storing microarray data, that stores RNA-seq data and is public.
I know SRA, but the source is not enough. Any other better one? I want to search for some special cell lines that have been sequenced by RNA-seq. Where I can find them? Thanks!!!
NOTE: GEO seems to still define "platforms" in the next-gen-sequence space quite crudely by simply the sequencer and not the type of sequencing done. A GEO platform of GPL96 (Affymetrix U133A) would definitely indicate an RNA expression dataset with clearly defined parameters. But, the platform of GPL9115 might (and does) indicate any of RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, miRNA sequencing, ChIA-PET, DamIP-seq, bisulfite sequencing, etc. To say nothing of differences in read length, paired vs single-end, polyA selection method, etc. So read carefully before proceeding with any dataset.
BTW, another thing. Does GEO include all the SRA info (except the data) ? When I check SRA, I found they have GEO query.
I'm not sure. But, I suspect you will find a whole variety of situations where sometimes data is in SRA and linked from GEO or vice versa and other times data has just been submitted to one or the other (or neither).
...just a little addition to Obi's reply.
You can use the GEO advanced search interface: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gds/advanced/ ...here you can choose between several fields and also an option to list the corresponding indices.
e.g. choosing the field "Platform Technology Type" and clicking "show index list" will end up with 26597 entries when selecting "high throughput sequencing" index.
...use combinations of those options within the advanced search interface and you will end up with a good repertoire of RNA-seq data.
Running a large scale data distribution service is an expensive operation. Since paying for a data download is not something people would do it shouldn't come as a surprise that there aren't that many options to choose from.
Beside SRA the only large scale data source that comes to mind are the Encode data downloads.
Thanks. I will SRA maybe the one.
Check InSilico DB (https://insilicodb.org): 100,000s of manually curated profiles pre-processed and ready to analyse freely available. RNA-Seq data is pre-processed with tophat-cufflinks-cuffdiff-cummeRbund. and ready to analyse. See https://insilicodb.org/differential-gene-expression-heatmap-from-rnaseq-data-using-cummerbund/ for a step-by-step example.

Q: Let G be an r -regular graph with n vertices and m edges. Prove a simple algebraic relation between r , n, and m. I know that it for any regular graph $r_{n}$ that we can show a relation between r, n, m. However, I'm not sure how to find or prove this relation. I assume that the relation will be something like $$r_{k} = n_{k} + \frac{m_{k}(m_{k}-1)}{2}$$
However, I'm really not so sure.

A: From each vertex go out $r$ edges, but this way we count twice each edge, so the number of edges is
$$m=\frac {rn}2$$

Abstract. Necessary conditions are discussed for the possible generation of large solitary acoustic modes in plasmas with one or more ion species which are hotter than some or all of the electron species. The analysis is based on a fluid dynamic approach. It is found that in most of these configurations the existence ranges for the solitary wave velocities are very narrow and close to one of the thermal velocities. In the latter situation, linear Landau damping may prevent the generation of nonlinear structures. The analysis indicates that both inertial and thermal effects for the ions need to be kept in the description, thus rendering an analytical investigation much more intricate.

Q. Do you have a recommendation for recording voice interviews?
A. Yes. I love recording voice interviews on my Olympus WS-210S Voice Recorder. I actually use two at a time with full AAA batteries. This redundancy ensures I capture the interview in case one voice recorder stops working mid-interview.
With the speaker on, I conduct and record all of my interviews over the phone.
After the interviews, I attach one of my voice recorders to the back of my computer, where I can download the digital-voice WMA files.
Some people record voice interviews using Audacity — a free download. When I formerly used this program instead of a second digital recorder as backup, it frequently quit on me mid-interview. Not reliable enough for my needs.
To save on transcription time, whenever possible, I also type out interviewees' responses to my questions live as they're speaking. But it's nice to have the digital voice recordings for back-up reference in case I didn't capture a concept or a string of spoken words.

The biogeographic hypothesis more accepted today is that Antarctica (West Antarctica) and southern South America (Magellan region, Patagonia) were connected by a long and narrow causeway (Weddellian Isthmus) between the Antarctic Peninsula and South America since the Late Cretaceous (Campanian) until the Early Paleogene allowing terrestrial vertebrates to colonize new frontiers using this land bridge. Stratigraphically calibrated phylogenies including large, terrestrial native ungulates Litopterna and Astrapotheria taxa reveal long ghost lineages that extended into the Late Paleocene and provide evidence for the minimum times at which these "native ungulates" were present both on Antarctica and South America. Based on these results we estimate that the Weddellian Isthmus was functional as a land bridge until the Late Paleocene. Our data place the disconnection between Antarctica and South America in the Late Paleocene, indicating that the terrestrial faunistic isolation (Simpson's "splendid isolation") in South America begun at the end of the Paleocene (~ 56 to 57 m.y.). This faunistic isolation is documented to have occurred at least 25 Ma before the existence of deep-water circulation conditions in Drake Passage (~ 30 m.y.) based on the onset of seafloor spreading in the west Scotia Sea region. We hypothesize that in the early stages of extension (Late Paleocene, ~ 55 m.y.) a wide and relatively shallow epicontinental sea developed between the Antarctic Peninsula and South America drowning the Weddellian Isthmus and preventing the faunal interchange for obligate cursorial terrestrial forms.

RedShelf Named to Inc. 5000's Fastest-Growing Companies List for Fourth Consecutive Year
By RedShelf
Inc. magazine announced that RedShelf has been recognized as one of the nation's fastest-growing private companies for the fourth consecutive year. The Inc. 5000 list spotlights the most successful companies within the American economy's most dynamic segment— its independent businesses.
Based upon the percentage revenue growth achieved by each company over a three-year period, the Inc. 5000 is the most prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies, previously including well-known names such as Microsoft, Zillow, LinkedIn, and Dell, among others. On average, less than 10 percent of companies that make the Inc. 5000 achieve the sustained growth required to make the list four years in a row.
"Making this prestigious list for the fourth consecutive year is a testament to the fact that we are providing solutions to very real industry challenges," said Greg Fenton, CEO and co-founder of RedShelf. "Colleges, publishers, and businesses are recognizing the power of digital content delivery to improve affordability and operational efficiency while simultaneously driving learner engagement."
Founded in 2012, RedShelf today provides millions of college students and corporate learners access to its award-winning digital instructional resources. In addition to digitizing and distributing content from more than 10,000 publishers and content creators, the company offers software (known as its Content Delivery System) that enables campuses and businesses to acquire, manage, and deliver all their course materials through a single, consistent process and platform.
Not only have the companies on the 2021 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but this year's list also proved especially resilient and flexible given 2020's unprecedented challenges. Among the 5,000, the average median three-year growth rate soared to 543 percent, and median revenue reached $11.1 million. Together, those companies added more than 610,000 jobs over the past three years.
"The 2021 Inc. 5000 list feels like one of the most important rosters of companies ever compiled," says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. "Building one of the fastest-growing companies in America in any year is a remarkable achievement. Building one in the crisis we've lived through is just plain amazing. This kind of accomplishment comes with hard work, smart pivots, great leadership, and the help of a whole lot of people."

How can someone restrict the images which appear in the v3.5 Media Library modal to only show those that are attached to a specific post id?
I'm creating a front-end management template that allows multiple authors to edit any particular post, hence the need to restrict what is shown on a post-by-post basis rather than those uploaded by a particular user.
The upload modal is based off of Mike Jolley's upload modal tutorial. It's been modified to look for the post id in the body class and attach uploaded media to that $pid.
The two primary authoritative WPSE threads on Media Library only deal with restricting by user.
Restricting Users to View Only Media Library Items They Have Uploaded?
Another WPSE reference is Limit Media Library to Given Folder.
// Lock uploads to "Uploaded to this post"
I've spend two days looking for a solution, the answer from Ünsal Korkmaz didn't work for me. Finally I've found the correct answer and I want to share with every one.
Just to clarify, the answer from Ünsal Korkmaz will preselect the option of "Uploaded to this post" in the media manager window, but if you are using the media manager in your own plugin, theme, custom meta box, etc, and you are constructing your own media manager frame this won't work. Even if it works, you will have a preselected filter but this dosen't effectively limit the media library to a defined post attachments.
// get selections and save to hidden input plus other AJAX stuff etc.

Exclusive Mini-Interview with Dark Horse's Scott Allie.
Buffyfest: Dark Horse's Twitter cover contest was for Buffy issue #7. We previously thought Nicholas Brendon was writing issues 3-5. Has that changed?
Scott Allie: I think there was one tweet with an error in it, calling #7 his first issue, but yes, Nicky is co-writing #3-5, and then he's also co-writing #7. Christos [Gage] has the season outlined fairly tightly, and so we've looked over the whole season with Nicky to look at stories that made sense for him to hop into, depending on his schedule.
is the "Felix" to Spike's "Oscar".
Buffyfest: Thanks for clearing that up. So The Odd Couple hmm? We assume that Spike and Xander are going to be roommates once again. Can you give us any info as to how in the hell THAT happened?
SA: There was a point in the Season 10 summit when Joss broke into a rendition of the Friends theme song … There may have been dancing, it was a long day. One of the challenges with the Buffy title is keeping the core characters closely enough together for the interaction and drama we want, that we think we need to do the series justice. So there's a lot of cohabitating going on.
Buffyfest: Got it. So considering all this, should we be VERY worried about Xander & Dawn?
SA: What …? Would Joss ever screw up a relationship between two of his favorite characters? Pshaw, Tara, come to your senses.
Buffyfest: Spike & Xander (Spander!) haven't spent a lot of time together since season 4, back when Spike didn't even have a soul. Assuming they're having any kind of relationship at all in Season 10, how will it differ from back then?
SA: Both James and Nicky have said they love the interplay between the two characters, and I think Joss and Jane Espenson said the same thing. Look back at the end of Season 9, when Xander didn't want to leave Dawn alone in San Francisco, but had to go to the Deeper Well, for reasons good and bad … Spike was there for her. Look back at what Spike did in his scenes in those last few issues. I loved what Andrew did there, and we all agreed that their relationship would not be the same after that. I think the thing we all liked about Xander and Spike in Season 4 is the sort of thing Christos does really well, so I'm excited about it.
Buffyfest: Fans seem to be very happy with the notion of both more Xander and more Spike this season. Is it safe to say at this point that Spike will be a permanent fixture in the Buffy title for the duration of S.10?
SA: Yeah. In Season 9, the plan was always to keep Xander in the background, as his anger problem simmered, building to the reveal about what he did in the Sunnydale crater in Season 8. Xander's relatively minor role in Season 9 was intentional. Spike's wasn't—we thought he was going to have a bigger role, but as things developed organically, we found he didn't have the appropriate things to do, he didn't have the role we thought he was going to. Some readers will think that means bad planning on our parts. Maybe. But you've gotta let the story make some decisions on its own, and we didn't want to shoehorn Spike's role into a story that we felt was gaining its own momentum, but we also didn't want him hanging around not doing significant things. It's okay to have Andrew Wells hanging around for comic relief, it's okay to have Kennedy popping up just to irritate people, but Spike ain't an ornament.
And there you have it! Thanks to Scott Allie, as always.

Shining a light on human rights abuses in Central Asia
As the world focuses its attention on the nuclear deal with Iran and the debt crisis in Greece, many other important issues are left out of the global discourse. In fact, an article about the blatant human rights abuses in Central Asia rarely makes it into the newspaper, let alone onto the front page. Yet, gross injustice and repression persists in the region. Here are some worrisome examples: In Kazakhstan, there is increasing repression of freedom of expression and free media. In Tajikistan, the government persecutes people and groups working on issues such as freedom of expression, religious freedom and political participation. In Kyrgyzstan, while there is a vibrant civil society, some organization are coming under pressure and the parliament is considering two restrictive pieces of legislation: a homophobic "propaganda law" that would restrict freedom of speech and impose penalties for promoting non-traditional sexual relations and a "foreign agents" law that would force groups with foreign funding to register as foreign agents. In Uzbekistan, following the Andijan massacre in 2005, the government cracked down on civil society organizations, imprisoned human rights advocates and evicted international journalists and monitoring groups. Finally, in Turkmenistan, the government employs imprisonment to retaliate against dissenters and refuses to provide information about those imprisoned years ago who have since disappeared.
Despite the lack of media coverage about these issues, there are some in the U.S. government that are still keenly interested in the human rights situation in Central Asia. A recent hearing before the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission, in which U.S. government representatives laid out a number of their concerns for the region, paints a troublesome picture. First, there seems to be a connection between religious freedom and violent extremism. For example, religious repression correlates with a rise in violent extremism. Robert Berschinski from the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor testified before a Congressional hearing that heavy-handed policies of restricting expression, religion and peaceful gatherings lead to radicalization. This is followed by more restrictive governmental policies, in the hopes of combating extremism. Second, the region lacks meaningful participation in government and a robust opposition, resulting in unhealthy political systems. For example, in Uzbekistan, Islam Karimov, who has been in power since 1990, was once again elected in a "predictable landslide victory." Tajiki elections are neither free nor fair, and media coverage was restricted during the recent elections in Kazakhstan where President Nurzulran Nazabayev was re-elected without any real opposition.
Third, the region has increasingly restricted the work of civil society. In Kyrgyzstan, a law modeled after Russian laws, curtails the effectiveness of civil society groups. Any group receiving foreign funding and involved in political activities would have to register as a "foreign agent." Additionally, any material published by such groups would have to note that they are distributed by a "non-commercial organization acting as a foreign agent." In Uzbekistan, journalists are treated deplorably. For example, Muhammod Bekjanov, a journalist, has been imprisoned for 16 years after publishing and editing an opposition newspaper. In Tajikistan, the government has blocked Internet access and restricted freedom of expression. And in Turkmenistan, media censorship and surveillance of journalists is the norm.
One of the most alarming results of the intense human rights repressions across Central Asia is its effect on the radicalization and migration of foreign fighters to Syria and Iraq. [This trend was mentioned at the hearing, but it was also something repeatedly brought up in hearings and briefings before various panels on ISIS, Central Asia and Syria] Unfortunately, this has resulted in a negative feedback loop: governments believe that more restrictions are necessary to curb radicalization of their citizens; but more people are radicalized due to these same restrictions.
As these abuses persist in the region, the U.S. and other governments can play a role to curb growing radicalization and human rights abuses. During the hearing, Jeff Goldstein, a senior policy analyst for Eurasia at the Open Society Foundations, argued that the U.S. needs to move resources away from security programs and into governance, education, employment, health care and democratization in the region. He also stressed that there will be no effective reform where there is no will to create it. Therefore, the U.S. must work with movements on the ground in each respective country.
Allison Gill, an expert on Central Asia from Amnesty International, also suggested that the U.S. could take a number of actions specifically concerning Uzbekistan, including: take a leadership role in creating a United Nations report on Uzbekistan's human rights record; urging the Uzbek government to open the country to independent scrutiny by allowing UN special human rights monitors and ending the restrictions on civil society; calling for the release of all imprisoned journalists and human rights defenders; providing support to Uzbekistan in its effort to amend the Criminal Procedure Code to expressly prohibit torture.
Although the situation in Central Asia seems bleak, there have been some hopeful changes. Tajikistan and Uzbekistan have both legislated against child labor in some way, and there is legislation pending to outlaw forced adult labor in Uzbekistan. Additionally, Turkmenistan recently released a number of religious leaders, demonstrating a modicum of religious freedom. These successes show how change is possible in the region. However, Central Asia still has a lot of work to do to promote democracy and freedom of expression, religion and association.

The uses and abuses of history for both Japan's government and atomic bomb survivors
By Carolina van der Mensbrugghe
久しぶり、日本。Japan, it has been a while. My seventh time returning to Japan has not rendered me immune to the excitement and anticipation, akin to a homecoming of sorts or reunion with an old friend. As I begin another chapter, comprised of almost a decade's worth of work, I can't help but be reminded of how fundamental socio-political and legal questions impacting Japan's future have changed considerably since I began my undergraduate studies.
Some of my initial questions included: Will Japan reaffirm the US-Japan alliance treaty, or move past it towards a more autonomous security vision? Will Japan uphold or reinterpret Article 9 of its constitution (which renounces war as a sovereign right)? How will these decisions alter Japan's dynamic with other Asian countries in the region? These question have been largely answered recently, setting the groundwork for historic changes. In July 2014, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, announced a "reinterpretation" of Article 9 to allow for military action with allies. This is a significant departure from the original pacifist meaning, popularly imbued in Article 9 of the 1947 Japanese Constitution, which took a more literal approach to the text's pledge that "land, sea, and air forces, as well as other war potential, will never be maintained." Public response was seen in extremes, with one man setting himself on fire in central Tokyo in protest. In May 2015, Prime Minister Abe became the first Japanese prime minister to address a joint meeting of Congress. Together with President Obama, he announced a joint vision for security, trade and historical reconciliation between the two allies. New bilateral defense cooperation guidelines were announced, some of which were newly made possible due to the divisive reinterpretation of Article 9 the previous year.
Tangled up in this fundamental question of sovereign military might—an unquestioned afterthought in most developed nations—is Japan's postwar legacy, which remains an ever present force in contemporary domestic and international politics. How Japan deals with its history, its complex relationship with America, and civilian experience of that lived history, is central to my current work in connection with the Nagasaki City Hall and the Nagasaki Foundation for the Promotion of Peace. Prior to law school, I received a Kathryn Davis Grant to document the lives and stories of atomic bomb survivors in Nagasaki as a project for peace. There, I interacted with and interviewed the Hibakusha, survivors of the atomic bombings. Their stories and experiences are important components of Japanese history that are barely accessible in film and writing, let alone within the United States. More than ever, as the hibakusha pass away, I knew action was required to collect substantial video documentation of the stories of Nagasaki that barely exists.
This summer, I am building upon this work with a team of transcribers and translators that are combing through interviews and hours of footage and testimony. The translated testimonies are beginning to reveal the complexities of humanitarian downfalls in modern warfare and the difficulties of creating legal structures to address postwar civilian ailments. Historian John Dower documents in his book, Ways of Forgetting, Ways of Remembering: Japan in the Modern World, that it was not until 1952, seven years after the atomic bombing and end of the war, that the Japanese government began to extend special assistance to bomb victims. This decision, he says, was due in part to censorship of Nagasaki photographs and testimony, sanitized reporting of the approximately 75,000 deaths in Nagasaki and a desire to move past a visible reminder of the horrors of war.
This delay in aid had terrible consequences. While reading interview transcripts this summer, I am sitting in Espresso D Works, a New York-style hipster café enclave, hidden in ex-pat haven Ebisu, Tokyo. As I continue to sift through my translations, I come across my interview with Sakue Shimohira, age ten at the time of the bombing. Ms. Shimohira has dedicated her life to sharing her story in hopes that future generations remember the past, deepen their empathy towards others, and work toward "the dream of peace." Her interview breaks down the results of aid-delay in shockingly personal terms:
Before, those injured by the bomb would come together and ask for reparations to cover the medical expenses of their injuries, but they didn't get any money, and all died. Many people couldn't bear the pain, and committed suicide. My younger sister committed suicide. Her stomach was infested with maggots [a common side effect as the result of open wounds from exposure to the atomic blast]. At night, it was too dark in the room to remove them. In the morning, I told her to get up so that I could pluck out the maggots, but they were already deep in her flesh. They writhed and fell out in droves. My sister wanted me to commit suicide with her, but since I had been fortunate enough to survive the bomb, I said that I wanted to continue to live, on behalf of my mother and other deceased family. The Hisaisha Kyogikai was [later] established in 1956 for these atomic bomb survivors. With the establishment of the organization, we continued to appeal to the government for support, but they told us to be patient, and offered no help. A lot of people couldn't afford to go to the hospital, and died.
My concentration is broken by a barista, who approaches and asks me in Japanese whether I like Nagasaki while pointing to a book sharing the same title at my side. I respond with a short explanation of why I am here in Japan and the work I am doing this summer. Surprised by my response, the barista thanks me and remarks that I am "so Japanese" for doing this. This is not an atypical response I receive from Japanese people, many who find it surprising an American would take interest in this history and become so involved. Nevertheless, I find it surprising given that the hibakusha experiences are not isolated, but rather a unique example in an array of cases in the developed world where governments struggle to develop legal structures for victim compensation (including the recent natural and nuclear disaster in Fukushima, Japan).
This summer marks the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II. Jennifer Mason from the Brookings Institute predicts that Prime Minister Abe will be under added intense scrutiny from the United States and Japan's Asian neighbors, as he prepares for his August 15 speech commemorating this historical landmark. During a tense and rapidly changing time of nationalism in Asia, the uses and abuses of history continue to pervade. However, as John Dower reflects—and I must agree—most of these particular historical considerations leave out the fate of the nuclear victims themselves and yet they are inseparable. I will be traveling to Nagasaki shortly to document these important memorial events as they unfold. Nagasaki City Hall has graciously granted me press access to document some of the key political and educational events surrounding this anniversary. With newfound political importance, I look forward to the historical and personal narratives that will be delivered in favor of reconciliation and memory of these events, as well as what this may mean for the near future.

Деднейминг — употребление имени, данного трансгендерному человеку при рождении, но больше им не используемого, в том числе паспортного имени в случае, если человек не сменил имя в документах. Слово происходит от , которое образовано от слов dead name (). Деднейминг может быть случайным, а может использоваться намеренно для отрицания значимости гендерной идентичности человека. Намеренный деднейминг является формой трансфобии.

Понятие
Как пишет издание Heroine, отказ от деднейминга — это «проявление вежливости по отношению к трансгендерному человеку и признание его прав». Деднейминг может способствовать развитию или ухудшению проблем с психическим здоровьем и психических расстройств, включая депрессию или суицидальную идеацию. Также публичное обращение к человеку по имени, ассоциированному с другим гендером, может привести к аутингу, что повышает риск физического и сексуального насилия.

Трансгендерные люди зачастую воспринимают деднейминг как оскорбление, попытку лишить собственную гендерную идентичность значимости. Поскольку для многих трансгендерных людей процесс перехода сопряжён со множеством проблем, старое имя может напоминать о болезненном прошлом в прежнем гендере, не соответствующем нынешней идентичности. При этом выбор нового имени является важной частью трансгендерного перехода. Деднейминг же способен запустить триггер у трансгендерного человека и причинить психологический дискомфорт. Особенно часто люди сталкиваются с деднеймингом в больницах, школах, полицейских департаментах и других государственных учреждениях, особенно если официально не изменили свои данные в документах.

История

Летом 2019 года стало известно, что голливудский профсоюз  собирается подать иск к базе данных о кинематографе IMDb за то, что она публикует прежние имена трансгендерных актёров без их согласия. Это требование поддержали такие ЛГБТ-организации США, как ГЛААД, Национальная рабочая группа по проблемам ЛГБТ,  и . Среди трансгендерных актёров, чьё прежнее имя было указано на сайте IMDb, — известная по сериалу «Оранжевый — хит сезона» Лаверна Кокс, которая называла деднейминг и мисгендеринг «максимальным оскорблением». Ник Адамс, директор ГЛААД по репрезентации трансгендерных людей, тогда также заявил: «Раскрывать такую информацию о трансгендерных людях, как их имя при рождении, без их согласия — это вмешательство в частную жизнь. Это только подрывает истинную идентичность трансгендерных людей, а также может подвергнуть их риску дискриминации и даже насилия». После угроз судебными исками ресурс IMDb пошёл на уступки и изменил свою политику, разрешив «удалять имена, данные при рождении, если они не являются публично известными». Тема деднейминга также обсуждалась в связи с трансгендерным каминг-аутом актёра Эллиота Пейджа.

В то же время вопрос использования прежних имён трансгендерных людей рассматривался в контексте проблемы границ свободы слова. В октябре 2018 года в условиях использования социальной сети «Твиттер» появилась информация о том, что повторный мисгендеринг или деднейминг будет считаться правонарушением, которое может повлечь блокировку аккаунта. Некоторые пользователи интернета назвали такое изменение в политике соцсети нарушением свободы слова. По мнению писательницы и транс-активистки , напротив, запрет деднейминга способствует развитию свободы слова, поскольку позволяет транс-людям выражать своё мнение без опасений получить в ответ «выражение их нелегитимности» в форме деднейминга.

The 'Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.' Spin-Off Isn't Happening
by: Rachel Kolb May 8, 2015
An Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. spin-off following Barbara Morse, also known as Mockingbird, will not be happening, at least not now at ABC.
After ABC announced that the network would be renewing Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter for another season, it was expected that the spin-off starring Adrianne Palicki and Nick Blood would not go forward. The show would have headlined Palicki and Blood as Barbara Morse and Lance Hunter. Season 2 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was meant to lay the foundation for the show, which begs the question of whether the spin-off's cancellation will change what is planned for Season 3 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
With two Marvel shows already on ABC and Daredevil on Netflix (not to mention all the other shows already greenlit in the Marvel-Netflix deal), perhaps ABC was concerned about Marvel overload and decided to focus on improving the ratings for their current shows. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s ratings in Season 2 weren't great, and, despite its devoted fan base, the ratings for Agent Carter were just okay. It's better in the long run to have two solid shows instead of three mediocre ones. While Palicki and Blood are both great, their characters probably work better in a larger team than they would alone in their own show.

The 2020 Louisville Cardinals football team represented the University of Louisville during the 2020 NCAA Division I FBS football season. This was the team's second season under head coach Scott Satterfield. The Cardinals played their home games at Cardinal Stadium, formerly known as Papa John's Cardinal Stadium, in Louisville, Kentucky, as a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC).

After compiling a 4–7 regular season record (3–7 in ACC play), Satterfield advised in mid-December that "we aren't in line for a bowl" after Louisville's director of athletics conferred with ACC officials.

Schedule
Louisville had games scheduled against Kentucky, and Murray State, which were all canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This will be the first season since 1993 that the Cardinals do not play Kentucky.

The ACC released their schedule on July 29, with specific dates selected on August 6.

Q: How to restore a backup that was done simplistically by copying everything to an external hard drive with rsync? I have a full copy of the hard drive I did with rsync. I maintain it updated and, if something goes really wrong, I can restore the laptop to the very exact state it had.
However, after installing a different Ubuntu version, I could not restore the backup any more, because some kind of "signature" (please forget my ignorance) in the hard drive had changed. After restoring the whole content of the hard drive and trying to reboot, I got something similar to "drive not found" and a combination of maybe eight to twelve four-digit numbers that, I believe, identify the partition or something...
I think I can tweak some ascii file inside the backup copy and change that number before restoring it, and it would work.
I appreciate if someone can fix the details of this information I am giving only very vaguely here. Thanks.


DaDi and MaMi's signature home cooked dishes are steamed minced pork, steamed broccoli and omelette! Well, the children are not too excited about the meal since they have these dishes so often. So, in order to make the meal more exciting, and without flipping the kitchen upside down, we made Onigirazu (rice sandwiches) with the children!
What is Origirazu (おにぎらず)? It is a variation of rice ball wrapped with nori (seaweed sheet) and is in rectangular or square shape.
Ours is the greedy version - we stuffed too much ingredients!
Place a seaweed sheet on a cling wrap.
Place a layer of rice and flatten this layer with a spoon.
Place another layer of rice on top, and flatter this layer with a spoon.
Fold the four corners of the seaweed sheet towards the centre of rice, wrap tightly with cling wrap to make a rectangular or square shape.
If your children are very young, take note that it may be challenging for them to bite and swallow the seaweed. So you may considering making Temari Sushi with them - see our recipe for Temari Sushi!

Turmoil at Jerusalem City Hall as 60 Workers Protest Against Deputy Mayor
Secular party Wake-Up Jerusalem claims move was orchestrated by Mayor Nir Barkat, even though both are part of municipal coalition

Ofer Berkovitch, with flag, leading a protest in Jerusalem in 2016. Sixty municipal workers stopped the deputy mayor from getting to his office at Jerusalem City Hall on August 30, 2017.Wake-Up Jerusalem
There was an unprecedented split between Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat and the largest secular party in his municipal coalition last week, unofficially kick-starting the October 2018 election campaign.
Secular residents have already lost the battle for Jerusalem
Monster victory for Jerusalem pub – a secular bastion under ultra-Orthodox threat
Jerusalem mayor makes historic deal with ultra-Orthodox rabbis on dividing city
On Wednesday, Jerusalem Deputy Mayor Ofer Berkovitch was met by 60 city employees demonstrating outside his office as he arrived to work. They were led by the chairman of the Histadrut labor federation's Jerusalem branch, Daniel Bonfil, who blocked Berkovitch from entering his office. Bonfil says the workers came to protest Berkovitch's harmful actions against city employees.
"What is happening is that the election has begun and city councilors are beginning to come down on the workers, asking them for things and insulting them – and I decided to put an end to it," said Bonfil.
Berkovitch and the members of his Wake-Up Jerusalem (Hitorerut) party are convinced Bonfil was dispatched by Mayor Nir Barkat, and that the demonstration outside Berkovitch's office was another step in a conflict between Barkat and Hitorerut – the largest nonreligious party in city hall and a senior member of Barkat's coalition.
"I believe Barkat decided to change his strategy a few months ago, which is related to his situation among the city's Zionist community, and out of a desire to guarantee his winning the next election and creating a partnership with his biggest opponents in the previous election, the 'Lithuanians,'" said Berkovitch, referring to the city's non-Hasidic, ultra-Orthodox Ashkenazi community.
Relations between Barkat and Berkovitch have reportedly been shaky for a while, but it seems the turning point was the agreement reached recently between Barkat and the rabbis who lead the "Lithuanian" community.
The agreement, which was reached after lengthy talks lasting over six weeks, includes broad understandings concerning various neighborhoods in the city, especially those with a mix of ultra-Orthodox and secular Jews. The agreement provides for dividing up various public buildings and schools between the different communities.
Wake-Up Jerusalem and others say the deal also has a secret political dimension, in which Barkat will receive the quiet support of the Haredim in the next municipal election, scheduled for October 30, 2018.
Berkovitch harshly criticized the agreement. "It is a bad deal that endangers the Zionist nature of the city," he said. "It gives the Haredim an increased foothold in [mixed] neighborhoods such as Kiryat Hayovel and Gilo, pushes out the religious Zionists and harms the Sephardi Haredim – and it was done in the dark. Since it was completed, the mayor has begun a series of actions that testify to his loss of control," Berkovitch added.
Wake-Up Jerusalem says Barkat ordered city employees not to cooperate with the party, and also ordered all city councilors to stop using the rooms in municipal buildings for political events.
A week ago, Wake-Up Jerusalem Councilwoman Einav Bar was relieved of her portfolio for promoting businesses in the city. The municipality's legal adviser claimed Bar had acted in violation of her conflict of interest agreement and intervened in a matter concerning her husband's business. Wake-Up Jerusalem accused Barkat of using the Histadrut, the legal adviser's office and others to settle political accounts with the party.
At the same time, rumors are spreading that the other pluralistic faction in city hall, Jerusalemites (Yerushalmi), is on its way to rejoining Barkat's coalition. The party left the coalition after the large municipal strike last January.
However, Jerusalemites Chairman Rabbi Aaron Leibowitz blasted Barkat for his recent moves. "A mayor who sends his workers to demonstrate against his deputy is a mayor who has gone off the tracks," wrote Leibowitz on his Facebook page, calling on Wake-Up Jerusalem to leave the coalition.
Bonfil rejected Berkovitch's claims, saying city councilors are sensing the election campaign has already started and are trying to exploit employees. "I will not let any politician harm the workers, it's not connected to his fight with the mayor," he said.
"City employees are furious with Wake-Up Jerusalem, which is stealing credit from them and humiliating them," said a city hall source close to Barkat. The city's legal adviser has come out against the party because of suspicions of serious conflicts of interest and using public resources for holding political events, he added.
As for claims that Barkat is using the legal adviser to attack Bar, the source called the allegation "libelous" and said the matter is now being investigated by the Interior Ministry.
As for the agreement with the ultra-Orthodox, the source said Wake-Up Jerusalem had been invited to participate in formulating the plan from the very beginning, "but they chose to avoid taking responsibility, so they could stand on the side and gather votes on Facebook instead of doing their jobs," the source said.

Q: String parse in C Is there a better of parsing the below string instead of doing a strtok() to get each field.
"subject=what&cc=bose@yahoo.com&server=smtp.yahoo.com:8000"
Basically I want to retrieve the value for each field into another char buf's.
Here is my code. Just wanted to know if there is any other better way of doing it (any better string parsing algos)
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

#define SUBJECT "subject="
#define CC_LIST "cc="
#define SERVER "server="

static void
get_value (const char *tok, char **rval_buf, size_t field_len)
{
    size_t val_size = 0;

    if (!tok || !rval_buf)
        return;

    val_size = strlen(tok + field_len) + 1;
    *rval_buf = calloc(1, val_size);

    if (*rval_buf) {
        strlcpy(*rval_buf, tok + field_len, val_size);
    }
}

int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
    /* hard coded buf for testing */
    char buf[] = "subject=what&cc=bose@yahoo.com&server=smtp.yahoo.com:8000";
    char *subject_text = NULL;
    char *cc_list = NULL;
    char *server_addr = NULL;
    char *tok = NULL;
    int field_len = 0;
    int val_len = 0;

    tok = strtok(buf, "&");
    while(tok) {
        /*
         * Handle the token
         */
        /* check if it is subject */
        if (strstr(tok, SUBJECT)) {
            get_value(tok, &subject_text, strlen(SUBJECT));
        } else if (strstr(tok, CC_LIST)) { /* check if it is CC */
            get_value(tok, &cc_list, strlen(CC_LIST));
        } else if (strstr(tok, SERVER)) { /* check if it is server */
            get_value(tok, &server_addr, strlen(SERVER));
        }
        tok = strtok(NULL, "&");
    }
    /* dump data */
    fprintf(stdout, "\nSUBJECT: \"%s\"\nCC_LIST: \"%s\"\nSERVER: \"%s\" \n\n",
            subject_text, cc_list, server_addr);

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

A: strstr searches for one string ("the needle") inside another ("the haystack"), but you really only want to know whether the needle is the beginning of the haystack.
Here's a small suggestion: (requires #include <stdbool> or change the booleans to ints. I like bools.)
static bool
getval(const char* haystack, const char** res, const char* needle, size_t len) {
  if (haystack && 0 == strncmp(haystack, needle, len)) {
    *res = strdup(haystack + len);
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}

and later:
for (tok = strtok(buf, "&"); tok; tok = strtok(NULL, "&")) {
  getval(tok, &subject_text, SUBJECT, strlen(SUBJECT)) ||
  getval(tok, &cc_list, CC_LIST, strlen(CC_LIST)) ||
  getval(tok, &server_addr, SERVER, strlen(SERVER));
}

You can actually get away with doing the strlen inside of getval, which cuts down a lot on the noise, because most modern compilers are clever enough to inline getval and constant-fold the length of a constant string.

A: Use strtok()
char *strtok(char *str, const char *delim)

You can put '&' as a delimeter

A: I wrote a quick-n-dirty splitter for you:
int split(char* input, char delim, char*** parts)
{
    int count = 1;

Improving adaptive capacity of vulnerable and food-insecure populations in Lesotho
Improving adaptive capacity of vulnerable and food-insecure populations in LesothoAlyssa Gomes2020-12-16T23:47:18-05:00
Over recent decades, Lesotho has experienced an increased frequency, duration and magnitude of weather phenomena and extreme events, including prolonged dry spells, recurrent droughts, intense rainfall, localised floods, heavy as well as early and late snowfall, hailstorms and strong winds. The projected changes in climatic conditions by 2030, 2050 and 2080 show there will be increasing climatic variability, and frequency and intensity of extreme weather events: this includes droughts and heavy rainfall and captures the magnitude of non-average climatic events over short timescales rather than direction of change.
The impact of frequent extreme weather events already fragile agricultural productivity has translated into declining incomes as well as severe and chronic food and nutrition insecurity for most households, and at the national level.
The main goal of the project is to enhance the adaptive capacity and build the resilience of vulnerable and food insecure households and communities to the impacts of climate change on food security.
he project will achieve this by pursuing the following three objectives:
Strengthening government capacities to generate climate information and promote its use to forecast risks of climate shocks, mobilise early action, and co-develop tailored and locally relevant climate services for communities;
Raising awareness of communities, women, youth, people living with HIV, and other vulnerable groups on the impacts of climate change, the importance of adaptation, and the use of climate information for seasonal planning and climate risk management; and
Designing and implementing, through a community-based planning process, local resilience and adaptation plans focusing on robust asset creation schemes, income diversification and market linkages, for increased adaptive capacity and household resilience.

Prostate tumor may be the second most common tumor and the next leading reason behind cancer loss of life in men. is certainly observed to become silenced by promoter methylation.17,39,50,51promoter methylation continues to be detected in cancerous aswell seeing that prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) lesions, whereas it's been rarely detected in regular prostate or BPH tissue.40,52,53 Hypermethylation of was also within a subset of proliferative inflammatory atrophy (PIA) lesions, that are thought to be tumors precursors.53 Another DNA restoration gene O6-Methylguanine-DNA-Methyltransferase (removes mutagenic and cytotoxic alkyl adducts from O6-guanine in DNA.56 However, hypermethylation of the gene promoter leads to a lack of function in a variety of cancers including prostate cancer.55,57 CD44, an intrinsic membrane glycoprotein, is Ki8751 important in cell adhesion and cell-matrix relationships like a receptor for hyaluronic acidity and osteopontin.58 In prostate cancer, CD44, functions as a metastasis suppressor gene, and its own down-regulation is connected with tumor development and metastasis. Hypermethylation of CpG islands in the promoter area of Compact disc44 leads to decreased manifestation.59,60 In a recently available research, methylation of Compact disc44 was evaluated among men who develop biochemical PCa recurrence after receiving radical prostatectomy.61 The methylation profile of Compact disc44 was found to become an unbiased predictor of biochemical recurrence (connected with 9-fold increased risk). This obtaining, if validated in bigger studies, may determine patients with intense malignancy. The endothelin peptides comprising three isotypes, ET-1, ET-2, and ET-3 possess powerful vasoconstructive properties and so are differentially expressed in a variety of cells and cells.62 Two receptors for endothelin peptides (ETA and ETB) have already been identified in a variety of cells and cells. Belonging to a family group of hyptohelical G-protein-coupled receptors, they may be differentially indicated during prostate malignancy development and in addition differ in binding the enothelin isotypes.63,64 ETA binds to two isotypes ET-1 and ET-2 only, whereas ETB binds to all or any three isotypes ET-1, ET-2, and ET-3.63 In prostate cancer, expression of ETA is increased, whereas expression of ETB is reduced.65 Moreover, the ETB gene (hypermethylation continues to be seen in early cancer phases and in a lot more than 30% of PIN samples.75,76 The methylation frequency becomes higher as the condition advances.75,77 However, hypermethylation from the promoter was also seen in BPH cells.78 Cells inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are Ki8751 recognized to control the experience of matrix Cish3 metalloproteinases (MMPs)79 in a number of biological processes such as for example cell growth, apoptosis, invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis.80,81 Four members of TIMPs have already been identified and so are regarded as down-regulated in prostate malignancy.82,83 Down-regulation of TIMP protein is connected with hypermethylation from the related gene promoters.84 Specifically, low-level methylation of and promoters continues to be detected in prostate carcinoma aswell as with BPH.82C84 Death-associated proteins kinase (DAPK), an associate from the pro-apoptotic calcium mineral regulated serine/threonine kinases, is indicated in all cells.85 Its inactivation prospects to the increased loss of this important Ki8751 apoptotic pathway. Although Ki8751 different systems may impact inactivation in malignancy, it's been demonstrated that aberrant methylation is principally in charge of silencing from the gene; inactivation of by promoter methylation continues to be seen in prostate malignancy and BPH examples, however, not in PIN examples.75,82,86 Cell cycle genes such as for example retinoblastoma protein (RB), cyclins, cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs), and CDK inhibitors (CDKIs) have become important in regulation from the cell cycle. In malignancy, the efficiency of cell routine checkpoints is frequently affected, specifically control of the G1/S changeover.87 CDKIs are harmful regulators from the cell routine and regarded as tumor suppressor genes. CDKIs are grouped into two households, the Printer ink4 family members and.

I recently needed a small compact remote jumpbox that i could use to help isolate a problem I was experiencing in a physically remote network. I employed a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B with Anker USB 3.0 to RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter which allowed me to use the small computer as both a jumpbox and a remote packet capture solution. I was able to manage the computer remotely over the built-in Ethernet adapter and then used the Anker (it's actually a Realtek chipset) Ethernet adapter to capture the problem frames coming from a SPAN port using tcpdump with some capture filters. You'll need to be careful of how much traffic you throw at the little computer but I was really impressed with how well the solution worked.

For years, organized crime rings made most of their money through violence, intimidation and corruption. And although these tactics were often profitable, they also physically exposed criminals to law enforcement in real time. For instance, committing an armed robbery requires the perpetrators to be in close proximity to the target, which means they risk being caught during the act.
Considering the high-risk nature of traditional crime, it is not surprising that organized rings have shifted to online lawlessness and that many of the largest criminal outfits in the world today deal almost exclusively in cybercrime. Quite simply, when criminals can commit crimes anonymously from anywhere, the risk involved decreases significantly. As a result, many law enforcement officials now believe that cybercrime may soon overtake some of the largest traditional criminal markets, like narcotics and counterfeiting, in terms of profitability.
With the threat landscape growing more frightening by the day, businesses simply cannot afford to take a reactive approach to cybersecurity. Rather, they must thoroughly investigate and ultimately adopt tools that can help mitigate risk. A network monitoring solution that includes network forensics and cyberattack analysis is a good place to start.
On top of helping information security professionals mitigate threats in near real time, network forensics also captures days worth of traffic, allowing IT to study and learn from an incident and be better prepared in the future for a similar attack.
President Obama called cyberspace "the new Wild West," a clear indication of just what a serious threat cybercrime poses to businesses and consumers. Unfortunately, in this somewhat chaotic atmosphere, criminal enterprises are often more organized than their targets—but that doesn't have to remain true. End-to-end network monitoring solutions that include network forensics can help level the playing field against cyberthieves looking to harm your business.
Cybercriminals have more sophisticated weapons at their disposal than ever before, putting new pressures and responsibilities on information security professionals' shoulders. Additionally, these outlaws now have a wider range of potential targets, including everything from actual currency to personal information, to intellectual property. And without the proper tools, no matter how talented your IT team is, protecting against cybercrime is nearly impossible.
