When trade show organiser Eurovet moved Mode City to Lyon, it was perhaps expecting a favourable surprise. It even planned to ask exhibitors about the possibility of setting up shop more permanently on the banks of the Rhône. But the initial feedback is disappointing. The lingerie show, and its supply chain counterpart Interfilière, were forced to relocate to Lyon owing to the concurrence of the final of the Euro football championship in Paris on the week-end, July 9-11. A forced move which has visibly penalised exhibiting brands, with attendance dwindling. The entrance to Mode City and Interfilière at the Eurexpo venue in Lyon - Eurovet. The organisers still have to issue an official statement on the figures, but exhibitor opinion has confirmed a marked decline in the number of retailers and buyers circulating at the event. Saturday was an average day, Sunday was busier, but the show ended on Monday with another lacklustre day. The cost and the difficulty of moving out to Lyon dampened many spirits. "It was clearly less busy than it usually is in Paris," explained swimwear brand designer Ysabel Mora. "This does not necessarily mean that our results will turn out to be negative, but it is undeniable that there were really fewer visitors." The opinion was shared with Romanian brand Jolidon: "It went fairly well in terms of export business, but we expected to see more people from France, only a few retailers turned up... Monday could not have been quieter," said a sales executive, smiling. Major international accounts were all present and accounted for, and they allowed the business overview to improve somewhat in quality terms. But is was up to French visitors to fill the show's aisles in quantitative terms. "It turned out well in the end, a few major clients have returned, especially on the export side... but Lyon, never again! It does not work, there were really too few visitors," was the word at Calarena. "We are all for returning to Paris," insisted a major French lingerie name. The show would have been no doubt affected by the Paris context: logistics and accommodation were complicated on the week-end of the Euro final, and a cloud of international mistrust has hovered over the French capital since the attacks last November. Lyon, however, could not have performed a miracle. This 2016 edition of Mode City has at least removed any doubts about the fact that Paris is a must for exhibitors.

Sonoma-Cutrer Sonoma Coast Chardonnay White Wine reflects a balance of fruit flavors and oak aging, creating a fuller-bodied white wine chardonnay. Its uncompromising methods of vineyard management, grape oversight and cellar maturation allow Sonoma-Cutrer to create white wines unlike any other. Wine Enthusiast Magazine described this white wine as "having all of the elements of a classic chardonnay. It is a chardonnay white wine you serve when you want to show people you care about them." Sonoma-Cutrer Vineyards Pinot Noir 750 ml Almost too rich for its own good, the full-flavored '10 Sonoma-Cutrer Pinot Noir shows deep dark fruit, dried leather and firm oak in its flavors; quite satisfying in the end. Sonoma-Cutrer Les Pierres Chardonnay 750 ml Sonoma Cutrer Les Pierres is pure and crisp, more in the French style of Chardonnay, with subtle fruit aromas and flavors nuanced with notes of mineral and green apple. Sonoma-Cutrer Russian River Ranches Chardonnay 750 ml Excels with excellent crispness. Perky and full of lively ripe citrus flavors, this wine is a real winner.

Christa D’Souza locks away her phone, turns off the wifi and tries to spend a whole weekend internet free No biggie. No biggie at all. I’m old enough to remember what it was like without it and besides, it's only for the weekend. And so it is I wake up one Saturday morning and begin my 48 hour digital detox. Already I’m cross. It’s such a routine checking my Instagram, checking my Twitter, logging onto Times Online (in that order), while glugging my 75ml of water, before actually getting out of bed. The upshot is I actually listen to the news on Radio 4 (although you could argue, since our radio is digital, I shouldn’t be listening to that either, but, oh well, too bad). So far, then, quite good. The next hurdle is getting out of the house. Again, I’d not realised how Pavlovian the reaction to check my messages while waiting for the lights to turn red in the Talgarth Road, even though I might have checked 60 seconds before. Then there’s Starbucks. What the hell does one do in that time it takes them to make my Venti black Americano? Look at everyone else checking their messages, I suppose. Get back home, and switch my computer on to finish a piece (with the internet switched off, obvs, and nobody said anything about no screens). Dammit, though, I can see there are four messages in my inbox from last night and it’s killing me not to check them. But then I’m the dumbass who sends herself an email and then, seconds later, gets all excited when she hears the ping, wondering who it might be from. This digital detox, I guess it didn’t come a moment too soon. Oh, Lord, but how brutal it is, having to write a piece without being able to multicrastinate digitally; how brutal not being able to idle most of the morning away looking at bathing suits on Net-a-Porter or checking out the schedule at the Primrose Hill branch of Fierce Grace, and instead, having to actually think? Right. Need to print this piece out... which involves switching on the internet. I suppose I could get one of the kids to do it for me, but isn’t this slightly like playing that game where everyone has to guess what celebrity you are thinking of, and saying it rhymes with “Badonna”? They won’t do it for me anyway. Watching mum going through withdrawal is sort of fun, although I think the 17 year old, bless, feels my pain. “Why don’t you go and buy a book from Waterstones,” he eventually suggests, “That’ll while away some of the day…” You are either a texter or a ringer and I’m the former; I LOVE to text. A sneaky look at my phone shows that my friend Nadia has sent me three messages, and it is literally torture not to answer them. I suppose I could call her on the landline, but I HATE talking on the phone. And besides, I don’t know her number. There are only two numbers in the whole world I have committed to memory… and one of them is mine. Time to go to exercise obviously and on the tube ride over, I find myself rocking. Constantly flicking between email, Twitter and Instagram even when there is no internet has become such a part of my life, I don’t know what to do without it. And here comes the breakthrough. Between Baron’s Court and Chalk Farm I end up reading a 20,000 word essay in The New Yorker right to the end. You want to know about unnecessary medical care in McAllen, Texas? Just ask me. MORE GLOSS: 5 ways smartphones are damaging your health So yeah, boring as it may sound, I’m having a bit of an epiphany here. It's still very hard not posting or sharing every single thing that happens to me throughout the day — did it happen if I don’t, sort of thing — and oh, my, not being able to do it when I get into bed, how shitty is that. The routine of it, endlessly switching between Instagram, Twitter, email and then back again, has come to be as soothing as a Stillnacht. Although what they say about blue light affecting the way you sleep is obviously a thing. My reading an actual book rather than a Kindle feels like it might already be having a positive effect. God, but there are times within this long, long 48 hour period I feel murderous. A thought: might a crime digitale ever stand up in court? It ought. And here’s the thing. One cannot switch off completely, but maybe there are certain rules one can implement. Getting the newspaper delivered, for example. Giving away my Kindle. Turning the internet off (along with one’s phone and iPad) while writing. My 12 year old’s place of comfort is sitting on the sofa with the US version of The Office or The Peep Show on his laptop while playing Destiny on his X box. I can’t tell him off if I am doing exactly the same thing. Like dieting, it is a discipline. What did Aristotle say? Something about being what we repeatedly do, so excellence isn’t an act but a habit? Sorry if that’s not quite right but I’m not allowed to Google it.

With time, I found that Org has already made me more effienet writer and note taker. I write notes in every meeting now, rather it’s my “turn” or not. I write notes as I work, about every solution and every problem I’m facing. I write first thing in the morning, usually about org-related thoughts I had as I wake up, over a cup of Sumatra cofee (little almond milk, one pack of sugar). Quite honestly, Org makes me feel good, because it’s transparent. It’s an extensions of my thoughts, continuing on one long line, uninterrupted, before I stop to think a second and relfect one what I was thinking (X-q). There’s no pretending in Org. No fancy text, fonts, or even images. Style is only applied to function. It’s a delicate balance which, with the Solirized theme, work extremly well (by the way, the story of the man who created Solorized is quite interesting and worth reading). There’s also an inviting segue here about Linux, which is the Org-writing mindset extended into an operating system. But I’m joyfully digress. Alright then. But every now on then you need to present stuff, and this means you need to “dress up” so other people can talk to you and relate. The “Normals,” so to speak, do not understand my Org dedication and often give me concerned looks when I type away, a single long line into a blank screen. The purity is empty, the lack of buttons and distracting elements feels threatening withough GUI guidance. Fine then, I can do fancy schmancy. Most Org-folk I’ve read and listened to talk about LaTex. In my case, that meant a full installation, which is huge. Over 2GB huge. Not worth it for concessional usage, especially since I work in Microsoft environment at work, and most people I’ll share with will need .docx or .ppt format anyway. So for me, .odt seems like a better answer. Two things are needed on my Emacs (version 25.2.1) for that: Download and install Libre Office. It comes built in with many personal desktop-geared Ubuntu distros, but in my version (Mint) I chose to opt out at start. OK, not biggie, full Libre office suite is only 100MB, and I can do that. I see myself edit the concessional Word file or producing a PDF. Add the following to .emacs to turn on .odt option in the export dispatcher: `(eval-after-load "org" '(require 'ox-odt nil t))` Now I can create the .dot file, which I can open in Libre Writer I just downloaded. Ooof. Hello GUI word proccessing, with weird paper screen restrictions look. And the white, the white! It burnsss usss…. But anyway. Overall things look excellent, but if I want to change fonts, move around images etc, now I can in a more eyecandy format without leaving Linux. Then again, if I really need to produce a document, I might as well save my .odt in Writer to a .docx and remote remote into my work computer, where Mirosoft reigns supreme. Options. We like having them, yes? Even another option I was considering is to use Typora, which is a pretty markdown writer. It comes with Pandoc, and can handle Word and PDF files. Typora does not exactly feel “Linux free” to me and seems heavily inspired by different “minimalist” Mac word processing apps, if that’s your thing. It probably won’t show in your distro’s and require installation from a ppa. I used Typora for a while for markdown, but we’ve parted ways now. I’m curious how this will stand out when I present my notes (since I’ve became the unofficial note taker at work, for reasons mentioned above). But for now, I’m more than happy to take off the fancy clothes and slide back to my comfortable t-shirt and shorts and write in Org.

Hillary Clinton’s top aide at the State Department who simultaneously worked for New York University helped arrange Clinton’s high-profile speech at the school in 2009, according to internal State Department emails released last week. Clinton aide Cheryl Mills was working as both State Department chief of staff and as NYU general counsel from January to May 2009, the Washington Free Beacon first reported last month. Mills helped the school bring Clinton as its May 13, 2009, commencement speaker and was involved in her speech-drafting process, emails indicate. The university announced in March 2009 that Clinton would speak at the event. Securing the secretary of state was a significant coup for NYU, and led to a record audience and increased publicity. NYU officials thanked Mills in emails that she passed along to Clinton. They were included in a large collection of emails released by the State Department last week. In one May 14, 2009, email, NYU public affairs vice president Lynne Brown described the event, which was held at Yankee Stadium, as a record-breaking success. "Cheryl: Thanks for all your help and guidance on getting HRC to our Commencement," Brown wrote. "Clearly she was a hit! Her presence and her message added luster to the event." Brown added that the university event director "reported record attendance for NYU Commencement and largest seated graduation in NYU history: over 27,000." Greg Albanis, the senior director of university events, also thanked Mills in an email. "Awesome," he wrote on May 13, 2009. "The largest ceremony in NYU historyl [sic] Thank You!!!!!!" Mills passed the messages onto Clinton with "fyi." Jim Kennedy, a former Clinton communications aide, also emailed Mills notes for the speech draft on May 11, 2009, copying three other State Department employees. "Thanks for the opportunity to suggest a line or two," said Kennedy. He recommended adding in a few Yankee jokes for Clinton, such as "I kind of feel at home here in Yankee Stadium, because ever since January, I've been playing on a team with a bunch of guys wearing pinstripes." Kennedy also suggested a couple of "self-deprecating" jokes about Clinton losing to President Obama in the 2008 presidential race. "[M]aybe go from there into a little riff like ‘Don't sell yourselves short. Many of you showed your capacity to bring change by helping bring Barack Obama to the presidency.’ (And then, after the inevitable applause at that line, follow with this quip, with a smile: ‘Where were you when I needed you?’)." In addition, he proposed that she change the line "half of my senior staff used to work here" because, he said, "the word ‘here’ given that it's in Yankee Stadium might confuse a little – better perhaps to say ‘used to work at NYU.’" Mills passed the speech suggestions on to Clinton with the note "Fyi in case you wanted to see raw input." According to her financial disclosures, Mills earned $198,000 from NYU between January and May 2009. The State Department declined to comment on the matter specifically, but said it would be responding to a Monday letter from Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley requesting more information on whether Mills’ outside positions presented a conflict of interest. "We have received a letter from Senator Grassley inquiring about Ms. Mills. We are reviewing the letter now, and we will be responding to Senator Grassley. I’m not going to get ahead of that," said a State Department spokesperson. Mills responded through the public relations group Mercury, which directed the Free Beacon to a section of the Department of Justice ethics guidelines. The section said government employees are permitted to give official speeches for former employers as long as the speeches had no "demonstrable financial effect on the former employer or client." Although this scenario is different than the one involving Mills, Mercury's Erin Pelton said it was still relevant in this case. "A conflict arises when either party has a financial interest," said Pelton. "There was no financial interest, so there could not even be a conflict (which the [regulations] reference shows), whether for a current or former employee." Government watchdogs said Mills’ involvement with the NYU speech appeared to be a clear conflict of interest. "The NY University emails to Cheryl Mills show a textbook example of a conflict of interest. The fact that a wealthy institution was paying Secretary Clinton's chief of staff while seeking—and getting—access and special favors speaks for itself," said Ken Boehm, chairman of the public ethics group The National Legal and Policy Center. The federal criminal conflict of interest statute prohibits government employees from "participating personally and substantially" in a matter which a current outside employer has a financial interest. The State Department told the Free Beacon last month that Mills was a "special government employee," or "SGE," for her first four months at the agency while working for NYU. The State Department had previously omitted Mills from lists of SGEs for the year 2009 that it turned over to the Senate Judiciary Committee and in response to a Freedom of Information Act request from ProPublica. Grassley pressed the State Department to release information on Mills’ employment status and potential outside conflicts in a letter to Secretary John Kerry on Monday. Special government employees are exempt from certain ethics rules but are still bound by the conflict of interest statute.

Finding cheap go karts is a lot easier than you may think, you just have to wait a little longer before you buy. But don t worry, not too long. It s really a simple tactic that I call price shopping. Price comparisons are certainly something you have already heard about, but if you do it right you can find some great discounts. Go to Google.com and type go karts, go kart, go kart sale or discount go karts into the search box. You may also want to try ‘go carts,’ ‘go cart,’ ‘gocarts,’ ‘gocart,’ gokarts or gokart spelled differently or enter some different gokarting words that may be appropriate. This will yield an unbelievable amount of online dealers. Check out about 10 or 20 of them and make a note of the different models and prices that they offer. Also, you ll notice on the right side of the Google search web pages there are many sponsored ads. Companies pay a lot of money to advertise there. Many of these sites have great prices and they should be checked out too. Go to ebay and do another similar search. Look at the different auctions and notice the prices that go karts are actually selling for. This is one of the best ways to determine a selling price. You may have to keep track of a few auctions for a few days, but it will give you a good idea of the value for different types of go karts. You can find gokarts in the $100 range on craigslist or even cheaper if you are willing to turn a few wrenches on it. Working on your own gokart is a good way to learn all about it and have fun while doing it too. Kids as young as 6 years old can begin racing gokarts and driving them under close supervision. Starting kids very young in racing helps them to develop skills that would be impossible to learn at an older age. Also kids that get into racing at a young age tend to stay out of trouble a little better. Cheap go karts can quite often be the path into much better go karts and even into go kart racing. Getting started into go karting in usually the hard part. once you buy the first kart you will begin to collect parts and pieces and before you know it you will have a nice collection of stuff. It is usually at this point that you trade up or sell off what you don’t need in order to get newer, better, or more expensive go kart gear The next thing to look for when buying a used go cart would be if there is any frame damage. Look for any bent places or cracks in the welds at all the joints. also look for abnormal wear on parts such as bearings tires and chains. You should also check for rust and corrosion of the go cart. Minor surface rust can be easily corrected by sanding it off and painting it, but serious structural rust can make a go cart worthless.

Aside from drinking way too much at a friend's birthday party on Saturday night, this weekend (and especially its pre-spring tease) was certainly an enjoyable one. The deepening recession, a steady stream of colds and of course the cold weather have made this winter particularly tough, but the 70 degree weather that graced the city on Saturday was a welcome sign spring is nearly here. I spent the afternoon at the Christopher Street Pier working on a story on the continued tension between LGBT youth who traditionally hang out there and people who live in the adjacent West Village. I did take some time, however, to simply stroll along the pier and even work on my tan a bit along with hundreds of other New Yorkers who certainly had the same idea. The city literally comes alive on the first warm day of the season and people can finally leave their coats and scarves at home. I spent Friday afternoon in the Meatpacking District and Chelsea and people seemed almost gleeful when the sun poked through the clouds. The birds appeared to chirp even louder. New Yorkers dined al fresco. And I even bought myself flowers at a corner store on Eighth Avenue. What a pre-spring weekend it was!

You’ve probably heard the terms UX and UI used in the development world, but what do they mean? What’s the difference between the two, and why are either important to the design process? We’ll answer all of these questions and more, and explain why both UI and UX are crucial to successful design. Keep reading to learn more! What is UI Design? UI stands for User Interface Design. This is the process of creating user interfaces in software, apps, or even websites. It’s essential the design of the pages and parts of the design that the user will interact with, the interfaces. This can include both graphics interfaces like app or website pages or navigation bars, or voice-activated ones such as Google Keyboard’s voice option. The UI design is all about creating effective, easy to use interfaces that keep customers engaged and make the app or website easy for anyone to use. If you want to hone your UI design skills, online Figma courses available at Designership will help you in the process. The UI design will include such things as graphics, fonts, and other visual elements that your users will see when they interact with your brand on your site or app. These elements should be crisp, well-arranged, and load easily on either mobile devices or computers. Firms that specialize in UI design can also help you determine which elements are necessary and which ones you can actually do without Visual elements can easily be overdone, as you’ve probably seen on a website or two. This can lead to crowded, slow to load web pages, causing users to exit the page and disregard your brand entirely. Good UI keeps customers interested in stunning, well-placed visuals. What is UX Design? UX stands for User Experience Design, and refers to the interactions your customers will have with your brand via your website, mobile app, or software. UX is important in that it helps developers better understand how the users will interact with graphics interfaces and what they prefer in terms of usability. Navigation, how pages read, and how pages are accessed are all important aspects of good UX design. Your site can look amazing, but if it doesn’t function well, you can bet users are going to disengage. No one wants to attempt to navigate a site that isn’t set up in an easily accessible way. Determining what your users want out of your design and how to best help them reach their desires is the job of the UX design team. Always take into consideration the needs of your users, as they will determine the success of your site or app. How Do They Work Together? Both UI and UX design are a critical component of any successful web or app development. The what and how of users interacting with your brand’s digital mediums can determine the success of websites, mobile applications, and even e-commerce stores. You can’t have great UI without great UX, and vice versa. The two are inexplicably intertwined, forever bound to one another in an endless dance of satisfying and engaging your users on a daily basis. You need both for success in development! A common misconception is that UX and UI are constantly at each other’s throats, each vying for power and dominance over the other. This is simply not the case. Developers need to have a deep understanding of both what the customer interacts with and how they respond to said interaction to develop better sites and software. Planning with wireframe tools makes bridging these two design concepts simple. A wireframe will act as a blueprint for the entire project, free of color or fancy fonts; focusing solely on the architecture of the project, and therefore, the UI and UX. Gauging the effectiveness of your UX and UI by using a wireframe can help create better projects and leave your customers more satisfied with your site or app. If you’re not putting these two elements at the top of your list of concerns, you’re truly doing yourself and the user a disservice. What Makes for Poor UX/UI? While each is a component of the other, poor effort in either UX or UI can leave your brand’s image tattered and the user frustrated with your designs. What makes for poor UI? Poor aesthetics, clumsy or difficult pages, and navigation bars, or even bad copy can make for poor user interaction, and therefore poor user experience. Desynchronization between UI and UX designers can also cause each to perform poorly, resulting in a less than efficient project and lots of frustration from both the team and the users. It’s important to make sure both your UX and UI designers are in constant communication with each other and on the same page when it comes to the finality of your designs. Try to only include graphics or visual elements in your site that are relevant to the site or your brand. Too many graphics or photos cause pages to load slowly and make for poor UI design. Everything should flow, creating seamless transitions from page to page, and easily navigable pages just feel better. Conclusion Both UI and UX design services are absolutely essential to a successful and fulfilling interaction from the user of your site or app. Keeping users engaged and happy with how your designs function can mean the difference between a loyal customer and a disengaged one. Be sure to keep your UX and UI teams synchronized and in constant communication for best results, as one cannot function well without the other. They are utterly codependent on one another, and with successful integration, your designs will reach new heights and attract new users.

Presently there is not a way. You may have or may have not noticed the last two updates have added a new Settings tab, “Fieldset Configuration”… presently you have quite a few options for configuring the Publish, Name, Addresses and Phone Numbers fieldsets… future updates will expand this to all fieldsets. The next update which I hope will be next week will add options for the Email Addresses fieldset and the update after that, the Links fieldset which will have the options you seek now. RE: How do I retroactively make all the links in the directory No Follow or Do Follow? There is not a way, well, there sort of is… you could hook into the cn_link filter and set the follow property to either dofollow or nofollow. This does not really retroactively change all links in the database, it will override the saved setting for the link. So no matter what setting the link is saved with, it’ll be what ever you set it as in the filter. Here’s and example:

MILFORD – In one direction from Badger Hill – the southern summit, not the northern one – you can see Pack Monadnock. In another, Mount Wachusett. In yet another, Federal Hill. What you can’t see are many houses. That isn’t the case from the northern summit, part of the large and slowly growing Badger Hill subdivision. Whether the southern summit stays that way depends on a plan for voters to buy the property for $2.3 million and keep it from development. “I think this is the last big area we could go after (in Milford),” said Diane Fitzpatrick, chairman of the Milford Conservation Commission. The commission is spearheading a drive to get voters to buy 445 acres of former forest land, which otherwise will be the site of roughly110 homes. Commission members hope that enough people will see long-term cost savings in the purchase – private houses, in general, cost more in local services than they pay in property taxes – to support it. But they also hope people will appreciate such a large chunk of wooded, hilly land only 15 minutes from the Milford Oval. They will be holding free Sunday afternoon tours of the property, in hopes that more people will vote to buy the land in March. Mark Frechette of Nashua appreciates it. He was interviewed Thursday afternoon when heading out of the property after a long day of deer hunting with his muzzle-loader. “There’s a lot of moose in this area,” said Frechette, who has hunted often on the property. “There’s bear, fisher cats, and plenty of deer.” Frechette wasn’t successful in reducing that number of deer Thursday – “I saw some signs, but that’s about it” – but didn’t seem discouraged. “It’s nice here. I hope they can save it,” he said. If Milford buys the land, it would probably be overseen by the town Conservation Commission, much as is done with the Hitchiner Town Forest and other town-owned open space. The commission would probably do little, aside from perhaps improving the parking lot and putting up a few trail signs, said conservation chair Fitzpatrick. “There’s a lot of wilderness attached to (the parcel). People can get pretty lost,” she said. The land would probably be left open for hunting, and use by snowmobiles and other motorized vehicles, as well as hiking and horseback riding. “I think it can handle it,” she said, pointing to lightly graveled logging roads that cut through the land. Despite the property’s appeal, and the fact that the nearly 800-foot-tall Badger Hill is Milford’s tallest point, even advocates admit that convincing voters to spend so much won’t be easy. Selectmen barely approved putting the warrant article on the ballot by a 3-2 vote, worried by the cost and its effect on voters’ perception of a School District warrant article to help the overcrowded fifth grade. If the land purchase is paid by a 20-year bond, it would add an estimated 28 cents to the tax rate in its first year, costing a $200,000 home about $56. The tax impact would slowly decline for the rest of the debt. Land-purchase advocates claim that 110 houses could cost Milford $150,000 more than the property taxes they pay for such things as schools and fire protection. That would affect the tax rate less than bond payments, but it also wouldn’t end after 20 years. The Mile Slip parcel is shaped like a huge “L” in Milford’s southwest corner, with its left-hand border against the Mason town line, and its leg butting up against the Badger Hill development. The parcel is bisected by Mile Slip Road, a class VI road that virtually ends after the site of Sunday’s hike, although it can be used as a hiking trail all the way to Mason Road in Brookline. The land was once owned by the founder of OK Tools and then by Marrads Timber Co. It is now owned by Mile Slip Development, which has already presented conceptual plans to the Planning Board for building 110 new homes.

Knowing for years I should look into estate planning, waiting so long and getting sick I realized it was time to address estate planning. I attended a free workshop. It was extremely well run and very informative. Patrick made it very simple and easy to understand. I then went to his office for a free initial visit. The entire staff was professional, caring and kind. Patrick sat with me for hours answering all my questions making me feel so relived and comfortable to make the right decisions. My next visit I saw Patrick who checked on how things we going. My experience has been wonderful!!! What I thought would be terrible and put off for years turned into such peace of mind and comfort with all of the Staff. I would highly recommend them. Linda S.  5/5 All members of the Elder Care staff at Patrick J. Kelleher were extremely professional, courteous, and accountable to me. From the beginning of the funding and trust planning to the actual titling of my assets into my trust funds, they were better than their word. I was kept informed of the process at each and every step. Most people don't want to think of my end; however, the associates at Patrick's firm are very compassionate and have a lot of empathy and made a very difficult emotional process easy to handle. Now I have total peace of mind that should I meet my maker unexpectedly. My estate will be prepared legally and my loved ones won't have to cope with the painful, costly probate process. I highly recommend anyone that's worried about how their assets are going to be divvied up after they're gone contact Patrick and his team who truly have their clients best interest at heart! Thanace P.  5/5 Patrick and all his associates are great at what they do. I expected that setting up a family Medicare trust would be complicated and expensive. I would recommend the firm to any family in need of these services. Pat S.  5/5 The Trust/Will process is something that everyone should do, but it seems so daunting and morbid. It isn't if you go with a firm such as Patrick Kelleher's! They are very informative, patient and kind! I would highly recommend them! Joyce F.  5/5 Patrick and others on staff, extremely professional, knowledgeable and patient with me and all my questions and concerns. Every question I have asked, has been answered professionally and courteously. I am a client for life. My family and beneficiaries are in good hands. Mary P.  5/5 I highly recommend Patrick J. Kelleher & Associates P.C. for estate planning. Their team of estate planning experts has helped both my Mom and myself create estate plans to ensure that our wishes are respected and our assets are protected. Avoid the "Four Headed Monster" folks. Friends don't let friends (or family) end up in probate. Aprille H.  5/5 My mother and I contacted Kelleher & Associates to assist with updating her will, POA, etc. Everyone we worked with at the firm was wonderful, thoughtful and caring. I would recommend them to anyone who wants comprehensive estate planning! Beth C.  5/5 What a phenomenal group of professionals! Patrick and his team made a hard year easier with their expertise on estate planning and I could not be more thankful!

The staff are friendly, responsive and professional. Any issue or concern I had was dealt with expeditiously.

Carolyn O.  5/5 I attended Patrick’s free workshop about 2 years ago. Excellent, simple overview of estate planning. There was no push to sign up for a one on one appointment. Patrick’s team created the trusts and a will to suit my needs on my time and on my schedule. Calls were returned promptly and all questions answered. I am confident, by the documents Patrick and team created, that my estate is secure, and that it will be handled in the manner I want. I truly believe the money I spent up front is an investment and will save my estate thousands of dollars. I started the process as a 57 year old female, and am glad I did so while still healthy. I highly recommend Patrick and his team. Eileen C.  5/5 Patrick J Kelleher and Associates made (what most of us think of as) an overwhelming, complicated experience into a pleasant, easy to understand experience -- making a will and placing our home into a trust. A big thank you to the whole team especially to Patrick Kelleher for being so knowledgeable and so good at explaining the legal terminology. A big thank you to Cheryl Sullivan for your compassion as you walked me through a difficult task. My only regret is not doing this sooner. Thank you all so much!

Thank you Attorney David Kiley and Patrick J. Kelleher. The outside workshop was pleasant because we learned so much and did not have to go inside the building. We were able to maintain a safe distance and were able to sign all our docs outside, fully protected with masks as well. Thank you Kelleher!!! Patrick L.  5/5 Patrick’s team is great and caring. He teaches free educational workshops which are very informative. Patrick, Dave and Paul do a great job teaching the workshops. It made understanding Estate Planning very simple and easy. The front staff of Ryan and Ashley give you a Disney level experience with their personalities and kindness. I am referring all of my friends and family to get their estate plan done with Patrick’s team! Justin P.  5/5 Best professional service in town! I always enjoy doing business with this team. Alex T.  5/5 Patrick and his team at Elder Law Care helped me greatly with my recent estate planning. This was greatly appreciated in this unprecedented time due to COVID-19. I highly recommend going to see them for all your planning needs! Tyler L.  5/5 Great, friendly, and helpful staff at Elder Law Care. They were able to help me swiftly and smoothly. I will be referring to my friends and family. James B.  5/5 I saw a post on Facebook a couple months ago for a free introduction seminar. I had put off getting my Will written for too long and thought I would go see what this was all about. It was interesting and educational so I made an appointment for their services. Long story short, I got my Will done and was so impressed, I am now having my mothers Will updated after the Elder Care Team reviewed it. I now feel like all my bases are covered and when the time comes my brother and I will be ready as well as own children. Glenn H.  5/5 My family needed an Elder Law Attorney for some expedited estate planning. Attorney David Kiley and provided amazing and timely service for my family. We were impressed with the firm's professionalism and their loving caring environment. We attended their outside Tent Workshop in Hanover and enjoyed the safety of being outside. We learned so much during the free workshop and took advantage of the no cost private legal consultation. Marie L.  5/5 Great with explaining everything. Really helped our family! Dawn M.  5/5 A one-of-a-kind great team in Hanover. A family environment in which relationships with our clients and personal development are paramount. Paul S.  5/5 Professional and caring. Estate planning with a personal touch. Margaret R.  5/5 One of my best decisions was to look to Patrick Kelleher for updating my estate plan. Throughout the painless process they provided helpful and professional guidance that assures me that my "treasure chest" will serve me well in the years to come. Kind, friendly and compassionate these folks are 5 star in my opinion. Frances G.  5/5 After meeting with over a half dozen Elder Law Care attorneys, I finally met Patrick Kelleher and his team. They were far and away the best for my estate plan creation. They took a very complex and detailed process and made it simple and easy to follow. I would highly recommend Patrick and his team if you are looking to set up an estate plan and to maintain it going into the future. Mike S.  5/5 I recently had the opportunity to sit as witness, to a will signing, for one of Patrick's clients. He took the time to really educate his clients. Patrick and his team made sure every detail was taken care of. His clients were clearly satisfied with a job well done. Amy L.  5/5 Attorney Kelleher sits down with people and talks about what your family vision is, and asks you to bring in photos of important family members. We came to a joint decision about what our family vision is. We designed our plan and protect our loved ones from financial hardship and make sure the family gets along in the next generation. 1st class kindness and service!! D. Kile  5/5 When our aunt passed away recently we had a lot to think about regarding her estate. By having all of her affairs in order, we avoided numerous pitfalls that can occur during the family grieving process.

We are very sad to announce that, after much discussion and consideration, we have decided to cancel Autumn Fest 2021. Given the current high level of community transmission of COVID-19, the daily increase in reported cases in our three-county area, and our club’s limited ability to ensure safe social distancing for such a large gathering, we felt that we could not go forward with the event without jeopardizing the health and safety of our community, our vendors, and our club members.

Nochi was rescued from the streets of Cancun. He was so skinny when he was found in October 2021 that his rescuers believed he may be a chihuahua puppy. However, once he started getting healthy it became clear he’s not a chihuahua. That’s where his name No-Chi comes from, meaning No-Chihuahua. Nochi is an absolutely wonderful 7 month old pup. He gets amazing burst of energy but ultimately has a very calm personality. His foster mom of over a month reports that once he knows you he is off leash reliable. He is a fantastic swimmer. Non aggressive with cats, and gets along well with other dogs. He is not house trained but being the respectful young pup he is, he will only go in his designated spots. He is ready to become part of a wonderful family.

Crestwood, an older residential neighbourhood in west Edmonton, was primarily developed in the 1950’s and the 1960’s. Detached, single-family homes predominate in this pleasant neighbourhood, with some condominium-style apartments and duplexes in evidence as well. This is a well-established community, with a demographically older population — and larger households — than the city average. Households of two or more people account for 76 percent of all Crestwood households, with families of four or more members making up 25 percent. The community has many long-term residents, and around 70 percent report having no plans to move. Crestwood is one of the more prosperous neighbourhoods in Edmonton, with the average household income twice that of the city average. During the Christmas season, it is home to the locally-renowned Candy Cane Lane, a section of elaborately decorated houses that attracts drive-by viewers and foot traffic. This family-oriented community also is home to many churches, as well as Crestwood Elementary Junior High School and St. Paul Elementary School. The Crestwood Community League, believed to be the oldest continuing community league in the country, offers an assortment of programs and events to promote civic pride. The neighbourhood is defined on the east by the North Saskatchewan River Valley, and on the west by 149th Street. The MacKenzie Ravine creates a natural boundary on the south, while the McKinnon Ravine defines the area to the north. This enviable location affords residents excellent access to hiking trails and bike paths in the scenic ravines and river valley.

The phone stared back, pale-faced, indifferent, and hauntingly static. In its screen shone the diffuse reflection of a man whose dark, unblinking eyes were ringed in purple. He bit his lip and chose his words. After a few fumbles of his fingers, he sent the message and stood waiting for a response. “Ellis!” the barista called in a cheery, albeit strained voice. “I have your cappuccino, and with an extra shot of espresso today?” He flashed a smile as Ellis approached the counter. “I just need a little extra energy today to get me going,” Ellis said. He mirrored the barista’s smile and chuckled softly as he accepted his drink from the counter. “Rough night?” the barista said. Ellis took a sip from his cappuccino. At once, the rich, milky liquid brought a tingle to his lips. “I didn’t sleep much,” he said. He suppressed a yawn, and then washed it down with another sip of coffee. A pleasant zip of caffeine shot through his veins. Nodding, the barista leaned against the counter. He fiddled with the green tassels of his apron as a wrinkle split his brow. “I understand your pain,” he said. “These days the coffee doesn’t even touch my exhaustion. Four, five, six shots of espresso in the morning, and I still feel like a corpse.” “That’s awful.” “Don’t I know it!” the barista said. He rubbed his brow and clenched his mouth shut, evidently fighting his own yawn. “Nothing works, Ellis. My work is suffering. I’m messing up orders. Not to mention, I look like shit.” Ellis made a curt chuckle. “I don’t know about that,” he said. He glanced down the counter, where two ladies were waiting to order. They fingered their dense, curly manes and peered at the barista from under their designer shades. He didn’t notice them in the slightest. “You’re just being polite,” the barista said. “It’s this work really. Me and the wife are looking for a new home, so the kids can have more room to play. I’ve taken up more hours, but it’s just exhausting me.” After another sip of his cappuccino, Ellis sighed. “You know,” he said, his voice low and level, “It is okay to take a break. You should slow down. Don’t run yourself into the ground. The kids will understand. After all, just as you want to see them happy, they want to see you happy.” The wrinkles seemed to melt from the barista’s face, and a hopeful glint shone in his earthy brown eyes. “When next you drink coffee,” Ellis continued, “It should be on a peaceful morning, relaxing on a still lake far from the cafe and all its stress.” The barista scratched the back of his head and glanced at the customers lining up, noticing them for the first time. “Thank you, Ellis. You’re probably right.” “Enjoy life in all its moments, for it is those moments that make life, and life is precious,” Ellis said. One of the curly-haired customers made a loud, impatient ahem. “I’ll be with you in just a second,” the barista said. He smirked at Ellis. “I suppose you’ll be off to work.” Ellis shook his head. “I took the day off. I think I’ll stay awhile.” He winked at the barista and raised his cappuccino in cheers. Then, finding a seat in a cushioned, mocha chair, Ellis pulled out his phone. The screen was blank, his notifications empty. Yellow, fluorescent lights flickered above the clerk’s head as he accepted Ellis’s camera. The young, pimpled clerk turned the camera this way and that, inspecting the make and model. Ellis blushed. “I’m sorry,” he said. “I got the camera as a present. I know how to take the photos, but I can’t print them off.” The clerk shrugged. “That’s alright,” he said. “I can manage.” “If you could just print the second-to-last photo, that would be great,” Ellis said. “What size?” “Uh…just a normal size? I don’t know.” The clerk pressed a couple buttons and then connected the camera to the computer before him. Ellis saw him smile briefly. His blush deepened. “You…uh ever look at customers’ photos when you print them?” Swiping a strand of oily hair behind his ear, the clerk snickered. “Of course,” he said. “I can’t help it. The photos pop up on the screen.” As he spoke, the clerk didn’t take his gaze off the computer. “Yes, but there’s looking and there’s looking,” Ellis said. This time the clerk looked at him. He offered Ellis a devilish smirk before his eyes darted back to the computer. “Would you like a frame for the picture?” He motioned towards an assortment of wooden frames, some carved into flowery displays, others plain and unassuming. Chewing his lip, Ellis selected a dark, mahogany frame. But, when he slid it to the clerk, the young man shook his head. The frame was too small. Without looking, the clerk selected a new frame, this one chrome and minimalist. “This will complement the photo better. Not so dark and heavy. Same price.” “Thank you. You’re kind,” Ellis said in a warm, earnest tone. The clerk snorted as if it could not have been further from the truth. He pressed a final button and detached the camera from the computer. Behind him, a printer ticked and screeched. Then, returning the camera, the clerk snorted again. When next he looked at Ellis, his face had shifted. His eyebrows had scrunched together, and the mischievous glint in his eye was nowhere to be seen. “You’re right. There’s looking and there’s looking,” he said. “I have been known to do the latter on occasion.” “I thought so,” Ellis said with a chuckle. “Oh yes. There are some photos that disgust me, some that make me laugh, and even some that make me blush,” the clerk said. The printer spat out a photo. It made a low hum and a final tick before falling silent. “I can only imagine,” Ellis said. He glanced at the photograph sitting in the printer tray while the clerk knit his brow and stared at his fingers. “But you know, there are some photos that make me jealous,” the clerk said, his dull, grey eyes sinking. “There are some that make you feel worthless in comparison.” Ellis frowned. “You shouldn’t think that way,” he said. “Photos are just moments frozen in time. There is infinitely more happening outside those moments. You cannot know what pain others feel.” The clerk’s sunken eyes twitched. “Just as I cannot know what pain you feel.” “Yeah,” the clerk said. He opened his mouth to say more but decided against it. “What matters is what we choose to focus on,” Ellis said with a warm grin. “All those happy photos that you envy. Those people are choosing to focus on precious moments. I am certain even you have some precious moments. Perhaps you should focus more on them.” The clerk chuckled to himself. “Yeah maybe,” he said. Eyes distant, the clerk scanned the picture frame and grabbed the photo from the tray. A smile slipped onto his face as Ellis paid. Then, as he handed Ellis his change, the clerk snapped out of reverie. “You want me to place it in the frame for you?” Ellis hesitated, wondering if the kid might smudge the glass with his greasy fingers. However, before Ellis could say no, the clerk had already grabbed his purchases. “Thanks.” “My pleasure,” the clerk said. Once he had fit the picture into its place, he scrutinized his work with a clenched jaw and pursed brow. “So, as far as pictures go,” Ellis said, “How does mine rate?” The clerk smirked again. “It’s a nice one.” He turned the photo around so Ellis could see. “This should make you very happy.” Backs turned towards the camera, a man and woman gazed at an expansive sky blushing red as the sun dipped below the horizon. The man wrapped his arm around the woman and kissed her cheek. The touch of her body set his mind clear and his heart skipping. He was at peace, and so was she. “It’s not for me,” Ellis said. He could almost feel the heat of the sun tickle his face. He took the photo and exited the store. Then, once he had reached his car, he pulled out his phone and opened his messages. There was no response. There his own text remained, unread and unanswered. “I will be gone for a couple hours. I love you so much, darling. Let me know if you need anything while I’m out.” Lilies, daisies, and carnations of every color illuminated the flower shop and filled it with a sweet, floral fragrance. Ellis roamed the aisles, all the while inspecting the carefully manicured bouquets set out on display. He studied them for their diverse spectrum of colors and for the gentleness of their aromas. Yet, the more he browsed the florist’s ware, the more he realized how clueless he was. He knew nothing about flowers. At the cash register, a teenage girl craned her neck this way and that to watch Ellis. Her eyes were curiously wide but gentle and the color of morning sky. “Sir? Sir, do you need help?” she said in a singsong voice. Ellis whirled around, but an older, grey-haired woman answered for him. “Don’t worry about him. He doesn’t need help,” she said as she pruned a potted daffodil. Her voice was rough and cynical from age. “I might need help this time,” Ellis said. “Oh no you don’t,” the florist said. She set down her shears and looked at the cashier with a dubious expression. “He comes every month or two to buy flowers for his wife. He’ll search the whole store for something special. Then, after much hemming and hawing, he’ll purchase a single rose.” The florist snickered. The cashier giggled as well. Ellis shrugged. “Too corny?” he said. “Obviously,” the florist said. “There are tons of flowers in this shop, some whose names even I don’t know. Yet, you choose to pick the most cliched one of the bunch.” “I think it’s cute,” the girl said. A smile buried itself in her freckled cheeks. “I would be happy if someone bought me flowers, no matter what kind.” “Do you have a boyfriend?” Ellis asked. “No,” she said with a blush. The florist walked behind the counter and draped an arm over the girl’s shoulder. “Ugly duckling here has had some trouble with the boys,” she said with a scratchy chortle. The girl knit her brows and frowned. “Oh cheer up. It was a compliment. In the end, the ugly duckling becomes the beautiful and elegant swan.” The florist posed with a hand under her chin as if to display what beauty and elegance looked like. “Thanks,” the girl said in a deflated tone. She rested her head in her hand while her frown lengthened. All the while, her back curled, and her shoulders hunched over the counter. After a drawn-out sigh, she sank deeper into her contorted pose. “Ignore her. You are already a sight to behold,” Ellis said. “Besides, looks fade.” “Speak for yourself,” the florist said with a haughty tilt of her head. Then, after a moment, she brought a shaky hand to her face. She touched the bags beneath her eyes and the wrinkles that drooped around her lips. Then, just as quick as she had examined her skin, she resumed her proud expression. Smiling to himself, Ellis looked again at the girl. “What matters is inside. You seem like a sweet girl. Someone will notice that just as I have. And once they do, they will give you the affection and adoration you deserve. The love of a woman is a special thing, and a thousand red roses will never match what you will give a man.” Although the girl had nothing to say in response, her cheeks bloomed brighter than any flower ever could. And her contorted stance, once painful to look at, loosened and relaxed. After one short shake, the cashier straightened to her full height. All the while, the florist waved her hand dismissively. “So what will it be, Ellis?” she said. “Should I get you another rose?” Ellis shook his head. “No. I need something bigger and better than a single rose.” “Oh my! Is it a special occasion?” the florist asked in a mocking tone. “You could say that.” Ellis’s expression was unreadable. “But I don’t know what to choose.” The florist grinned with excitement. “Don’t worry. We’ll take care of you and your honey, won’t we ugly duckling?” The cashier rolled her eyes. Regardless, she joined her boss in the search for a suitable bouquet. As soon as the pair disappeared down an aisle, Ellis heard them bicker. This arrangement was too sparse. That one too dull. This one monotone. And that one a shoddy bundle put together by a foolish apprentice no doubt. Left alone, Ellis pulled out his phone. To his delight, a notification filled the center of the screen with sharp, black letters. Bound by a cheery, white bubble, the letters read: “Do what you want. I don’t care.” His delight faded. “This never should have happened,” Ellis wrote back. “I am so sorry.” Head half in the cooler, Ellis searched the convenience store’s bountiful collection of ice cream. Neopolitan, mint chocolate chip, cookie dough, maple walnut. There were more flavors than he could count, but he had yet to find the one he was looking for. As Ellis dug through the cooler, a mother strode by. Behind her she dragged a child, who was whining and screaming for her attention. In his hand, he carried a plastic, green army man like Ellis had when he was a kid. “Come on,” the mother said, half to her son, half to herself. She was younger than most mothers, but her stress showed all the same. Droopy bags underscored her eyes, and her hair curled every which way. Clearly, she had seen neither a bed nor a mirror in a long time. Just as the kid passed by, the toy soldier slipped out of his hands. He stretched desperately to pick it up, but his mother pulled him along all the same. Before long, the boy exploded into tears. He begged his mother to stop, but she would not listen. “Enough!” she said. “We are in public. You can’t scream like that.” “But mommy! Mommy!” he said in between sobs. Snot rolled down his lip. “My toy.” “Not now. I am in a hurry. I need to pick up food so we can eat tonight. You want to eat, don’t you?” she said over his incessant cries. “Hey wait,” Ellis called. He picked the soldier off the floor and called for her once more. “Hey!” This time the woman stopped. “Your son dropped his toy.” He jogged towards them and offered the toy to the child. Ellis had barely extended his arm before the child grabbed the soldier out of his hand. As soon as he had, the boy sniffled and hid behind his mother’s leg. “Thank you,” the woman said. She clenched her eyes shut as if shaking off a bad dream. She forced a smile, and then scurried off with her teary-eyed son in tow. Having returned to the cooler with fresh eyes, Ellis found what he was looking for much easier: rocky road ice cream, his wife’s favorite flavor. He picked up a pint for her. Nothing for himself. As he made his way to the cash register, Ellis heard a sudden explosion of noise and tears. Just in front of the counter, the boy had collapsed into a sobbing mess. His mother yanked at his arm and pleaded with him to be quiet. He had his toy. She had their food. What more could he want? “I’m so sorry,” the mother said to Ellis as he approached. “Please go ahead. I-” She winced as her child loosed an ear-splitting cry. “It’s okay,” Ellis said. He stepped around the red-faced child, who had curled into a weepy ball. The mother crouched down beside her son. This time she tried to calm him with comforting words in a hushed tone. Even so, the boy would not let up. The cashier suffered a grin as Ellis stepped up to the counter. They both flinched as the boy screamed again. “Just the ice cream?” the cashier asked. Ellis slid the pint of rocky road to the cashier. All the while, he looked at the weary mother and her inconsolable son. “I’ll get this too,” he said, grabbing a candy bar. The cashier scanned his items and wished him a great rest of the day, albeit in a dreary monotone. Crouching down beside the sobbing child, Ellis offered the candy bar. “Hey,” he said in a warm, easy tone, “Have it. It’s yours.” The boy looked at Ellis with wide, wet eyes. “Go on. It was my favorite as a kid. Smooth chocolate, sticky caramel, and delicious nougat. I could never resist it, and I bet you…” Before he could finish speaking, the boy snatched the chocolate out of his hand. Without hesitation, he unwrapped the candy bar and devoured it, all without making a noise. “That’s what I thought,” Ellis said. Equal parts gracious and perplexed, the mother sighed heavily from her chest. “Thank you. I…you didn’t have to do that,” she said. She pulled out her wallet. “I should repay you for the chocolate.” But Ellis waved his hand to dismiss the idea. “Don’t worry about it. Not every deed must be repaid. Some deeds are rewards in and of themselves.” “Well, thank you. I…sometimes I just don’t know what to do with him,” the mother said, breathless. “His father is on tour, and I’m…I’m not as good with him. My husband was always so fun and relaxed. He managed to get everything done and still make the child happy. But I’m…I’m struggling. I’m starting to think I’m not cut out to be a mom.” “Nonsense,” Ellis said. “You love your son. That is clear. You would not be so stressed if you did not.” The woman chuckled as if to say “stressed” was an understatement. Ellis smiled. He looked down at the pint of ice cream in his hand. His smile faltered. “People need to feel loved,” he continued, “And children are no exception. Food, clothing, and a bed to sleep in. Those are all necessary for a child. But you need to treat them now and then to show them you care. Children are a gift. Treasure them.” “You sound like an expert,” the woman said. “You must have a child of your own.” His smile fell into a tilted frown. “No,” he said with a shake of his head. His eyes glazed over, and the color ebbed from his cheeks. A moment of silence passed before Ellis was disturbed by the shrill ting of his phone. “Sorry. I have to go,” he said. Eyes glued to his phone, Ellis headed back to his car. He placed the ice cream on the passenger seat next to the flowers and framed photo. Then, he read the text to himself. Then, he read it a second time. Then, once more. “I don’t want to hear it,” she wrote. “It’s all my fault.” Ellis was anxious, fearful even, but eager nonetheless. His fingers twitched as they touched the rusted, iron doorknob, and his chest shuddered as the door opened with a creak. “Hello? Honey?” he said. Against his chest, he held the framed photo. Its brilliant, sunlit scene hovered just over his heart. In the crook of his arms, he carried the bouquet of flowers. Their delicate petals shook with every step, and their slender, green necks bowed as he stepped inside. In his hand, he held the pint of rocky road, softened but still just as sweet. Lying before Ellis in a careless heap were three trash bags. Each was filled to the brim with baby clothes. Spotless. Unworn. Tags still hanging from their sleeves. Ellis shut the door behind himself. At once, the heavy thud of footsteps resounded through the floorboards. A moment later a woman shouted in a harsh, threatening tone. She spat obscenities and biting remarks. She pointed fingers and gnashed her teeth. And yet, in her voice, something quivered ever so slightly. Glass shattered. But her shouts grew, in volume and in fire. They built more and more until her throat could handle not another sound. And at last, her voice broke. Muffled in an embrace, the woman sobbed and shook. Her arms hung limp at her sides. But Ellis held her still. He wrapped her tighter in his embrace, and kissed her once upon the cheek. “I love you,” he said, for there was nothing else to say. “I love you so much.”

In what will be the first of a new set of stories I will do, I will discus my most recent import game in my library of Xbox 360 games. So, I recently managed to get my hands on Mushihime-sama Futari, a maniac shooting game from CAVE, a company known for making some of the more crazier shooters we might or might not know, such as Guwange (available in the XBL Marketplace in the Arcade area), Deathsmiles (Published here by Aksys games), . Could this game be worth your money? Let's find out, shall we. First off, you may be wondering, why am I talking about a game that is only in Japan? Simple, and the first reason why I would recommend it. Truth is, This is one of the few Japanese xbox 360 games that just so happens to be Region-Free, meaning that this game could be played on any xbox 360 unit. When you boot up the game, you are given a choice between Ver. 1.5 or Arrange, both of which offers the players a different type of challenge. there is also a DLC pack in which will enable the player to play the Black Label version, which is even more challenging. When it comes to the actual gameplay, you will need to take into consideration that this is a vertical shump (shoot em' up). in most of the modes in the game, you pretty much use two buttons: a fire button, and a bomb button. there are two types of firing: rapid-fire firing, and auto firing. you do the rapid-fire shooting by spamming on the firing button, while with auto firing, you simply hold the button down. Do note that these two shots are different from each other. you normally have 3 bombs on you, and when you die, if you have used any bombs, it will restock to 3. the bombs can be used in many ways, especially if you think you can't dodge a series of bullets on the screen that looks impossible to dodge. As far as the music and graphics goes, it's really amazing. the soundtrack makes it feel so satisfying as you dodge tons of bullets and wreaking havoc upon your enemies. when it comes to the graphics, the art style just simply looks awesome, from the smallest details of the levels, to the many enemies, to even the smallest of bullets that spread all over the field. the cool thing is that you can even change your wallpaper to i think around 14 different varieties. So, in the end, is this game worth getting? If you're the type of person who likes Old-School shump's, but at the same time want a real hard, and maybe painful challenge, then I would definitely recommend it. the best chance for you to probably find this game would be on Ebay, Amazon, or any import gaming sites.

1942, Flight Lieutenant Gerald Imeson was held at the Stalag Luft III camp in Germany. Since he was in a German war camp, you would be surprised to learn that the British Lieutenant was able to order and accept a delivery for a brand new Rolex watch. Yes, you read that correctly. The Swiss company offered all British officers who were PoWs one of their time pieces to replace the ones that the Germans had confiscated. One condition, the watch had to be paid for after the war. Why just the British officers? The company viewed these men as honorable and would repay their debt. Imeson was wearing the watch as he helped to dig three tunnels for the escape attempt in 1944. His job was to be a ‘penguin’. A penguin was the term used to call a man who disposed of the dirt that came from the secret tunnels. They kept this as unnoticeable as possible by putting the dirt in their pockets. He was to be the 172nd prisoner to escape the camp through those tunnels. Unfortunately, he never was able to escape because the German guards discovered the break-outs. Only 76 men were able to escape. 73 of those men were re-captured. 50 of those were executed. The story of the escape attempt was made into a movie in 1963, aptly titled ‘The Great Escape’. The timepiece that Imeson wore was the Rolex Oyster Chronograph. He wore this during the treacherous marches through Germany so they could evade the advancing Red Army in the harsh winter if 1945. Luckily, in 1947 Imeson survived and he was able to make it back to Britain with the watch intact. He repaid his debt of £170, which is equivalent to £5,000 in today’s currency. Imeson treasured the watch all the way until he died in 2003 at the age of 85. His dying request was to have the watch auctioned so that his family could benefit from it. The time piece is now up for auction y Bourne End Auction Rooms in Bunckinghamshire. It is estimated to be worth £25,000, but it is presumed that the watch will go for more. Martin Perrin, a spokesman from the auction house, told the Mirror News, “PoWs generally had their watches confiscated by the Germans on the excuse that they may have contained hidden compasses that could have helped in an escape. “When the owner of Rolex heard that PoWs were having their watches taken from them by the Germans he said British officers could replace them with a Rolex and not be billed until after the war. “Airmen who were kept in Luft camps were treated quite well and there would have been a gentlemen’s agreement for the PoWs to order and keep these watches. “The model F/Lt Imeson chose was one of the top Rolex made at the time. It was sent to him at the camp via the International Red Cross. “It was quite some time after the war that he paid for the watch, in about 1947, because the government put a stop on any money going out of the country. “He had to have permission from the Bank of England to release the money to Switzerland. “He kept the watch for the rest of his life and treasured it. But it was his wishes that the Rolex be sold to benefit the family. “It is in a very good condition and was serviced by Rolex in 1980. It would appeal to two types of collectors; those interested in vintage watches and those interested in military history. “If it was just a vintage Rolex we believe it would be worth about £12,000 but with its history it is at least double that amount.” Imeson was captured by the German forces in October of 1941. He was flying a Wellington bomber enroute back to Britain after an attack on Cologne when it was attacked by flak. It resulted in a crash into the North Sea just off the coast of Belgium. The crash resulted in only one casualty while the rest swam to the dinghy. When dawn came the next morning, a member of the Belgian resistance swam out to assist the men. Unfortunately the lot were spotted by a German patrol and towed ashore. Imeson was taken to a German hospital for a broken ankle before he was sent to Stalag Luft III in eastern Germany.

Data is the key to science. This statement provides the basis for making observations, developing hypotheses, doing experiments, analyzing results, and revising hypotheses. Without data, “science” would be limited to theories that, however well-thought out, may or may not be true. As obvious as that might be to all of us as science teachers, we often stray from data collection. We tend to do labs which are demonstrations of a concept or collect data to prove a point, but we rarely do lab activities which require students to collect AND analyze data. I am completely guilty of this, too. “Guilty” might not be the right word since there are completely valid reasons for doing demonstration-style labs. Students need a way to visualize what you are teaching and these demonstrations provide that, enhancing understanding. That noted: They do not really allow students to experience science. What does it mean to “experience science?” Needless to say, simply collecting data is not enough. The data should be analyzed – does the data support or reject the hypothesis? Further, does the data mean that we should revise our hypothesis? It’s not about being “right” or “wrong,” but rather about developing a better understanding of the world around us – a world which in most cases for Biotechnology classes, is far too small for us to actually see. We need to engage our students in data collection, but my focus is on data analysis. In most labs which have students collecting data, we have them compare different trials by “looking at the average.” For example, I have my Biology students measure their “recovery time” after exercise. We collect recovery times from students who perform jumping jacks and others who run in place. We then get an average recovery time for both types of exercises and check to see if our hypothesis is supported. If it is, we propose what next year’s class could do to further test this idea. If it isn’t supported, we try to revise our hypothesis and still propose what next year’s class could do to test our revised hypothesis. In the Biotechnology class, however, I want my students to go further in their analysis. Averages can be misleading. One or two data points can lead to averages which are different but not “statistically meaningful.” In the case of the different exercises, one data point which is 10 minutes longer than the others can have a big impact. In order to further analyze their averages, my Biotechnology students use Google Sheets (or other graphing programs) to calculate and plot error bars based on “standard deviation.” These error bars allow us to see the uncertainty of the data. SEE BELOW. For example, if the error bars from one experiment to another overlap, then there is NO statistically significance between the averages and we have to conclude that they are essentially the same. If the error bars DO NOT overlap, then there is statistically significance between the averages and our hypothesis is supported. My point with them is not to train them on how to calculate “standard deviation” – the computer program will do that for us – or even to know if “standard deviation” is the proper statistical analysis which we should be doing. Rather, my point is to show that we should be doing more than just collecting data, we need to analyze it . . . and averages . . . can be misleading. Even error bars do not necessarily make the data clearer. In September, the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) met to discuss recommending boosters for the Pfizer vaccine. One of the bits of data they analyzed is below: This data looked at whether the vaccine was still effective as time passed after the second dose. The data for ≥5 months has error bars which overlap the data for other durations of time. In other words, there was not a clear indication that the booster was needed based on that statistical analysis. The data does show that a different statistical analysis showed that the data did trend downwards, but it still did not meet the “error bar test.” If you recall, the committee made the recommendation that only older individuals receive the booster. The CDC Director, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, then reversed that recommendation to include people in “high risk occupations.” Sometimes, scientists have to use more than just statistical analysis, especially in the middle of a public health crisis. Our next Virtual Teacher Meet (scheduled for December 7th from 7:00 – 8:00pm) will focus on data analysis. I provide data for us to work with and model how to use Google Sheets to develop error bars on graphs. Please feel free to bring some of your own data to look at as well. This work will help your students understand that it’s important to look at the data in more than just one way. Hope to see you then!

Twelve years ago, Kosovo unilaterally declared its independence. The declaration was read in the Parliament by Hashim Thaçi, then Prime Minister, and the Republic’s current President. Since the events of 2008, much has changed in Kosovo – not only regarding its head of state but also its citizens. The parliamentary elections of October 2019 marked the first victory for a party whose leaders do not have a background in the Kosovo Liberation Army or in the party of the world’s most famous Kosovar leader Ibrahim Rugova. Author: Robert Rajczyk The Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), founded thirty years ago, and Adem Jashari, considered its first commander, are for Kosovars the essence of a national myth. T-shirts with the image of a bearded man and the slogan: “Bac, u krye” (Uncle, it is done) have become a symbol of an independent state. Jashari himself has a national hero’s status in Kosovo – almost as much as Ernesto “Che” Guevara in Cuba. Half of the six KLA brigades came from the Drenica region, home to the family of Jashari, who lived in Prekaz. His house became something of a museum and enriched the educational excursion itinerary of Kosovar students. The building was reconstructed after the Serbian army had used mortars to fire on the Kosovo Liberation Army’s soldiers who were defending themselves for four days in March 1998. In the three-day clashes, Adem, his older brother, and his 13-year-old son were killed. The only survivor from Jashari’s closest family was his youngest son, 11-year-old Besart. An examination of Adem Jashieri’s body suggested that he committed suicide, and legend has it that he died singing the Albanian anthem. Therefore, in Kosovo, he is treated with the same respect as the fifteenth-century leader Skanderbeg, who proclaimed an independent Albania and united the Albanians. Meanwhile, in 1997 in Serbia, Jashari was sentenced in absentia to 20 years in prison on charges of terrorism and the murder of a police officer. As of today, Adem Jashari is the patron of the international airport in the capital of Kosovo, Pristina, the National Theatre of Kosovo, and the stadium in Mitrovica. There are monuments to him being erected throughout the country, and even beyond its borders – in Tirana (Albania), for example. It is possible that the new football stadium in Kosovo will also be named after Jashari. The new building will replace the current modernized facility for thirteen thousand seats where Kosovo’s national football team plays its matches. This is likely to happen if the leading politicians manage to reach an agreement on the stadium’s location. From 2016 to 2018, after Kosovo had been admitted to UEFA and FIFA, qualification matches were played in the Albanian city of Shkodër, being the only stadium in the area meeting the Federation’s requirements for this type of sporting event. The divisions related to the new stadium’s location are in line with the political divide in the country. The President of Kosovo is in favor of building it in Pristina. At the same time, the leaders of the opposition party Vetëvendosje (Self-determination) and the Democratic League of Kosovo (the party of the legendary Kosovar leader, who died in 2006, Ibrahim Rugova) want it to be located in Bernica, north of Pristina. This suggestion has also been rejected due to the high cost of the investment. Therefore, it seems that the new facility will likely be built in Drenas/Glogovac, 30 km west of the capital city, conforming to the vision of the former prime minister Ramush Haradinaj. The reasons for such a choice are its convenient location by the highway and easy access from Pristina airport. The dispute over the new stadium’s location is only a small part of Kosovo’s political discourse. The main axes of conflict in the country are the influence of international organizations and the USA on political processes in Kosovo and the issue of relations with Serbia. The local political scene has been dominated by political groups originating from the Kosovo Liberation Army (the Democratic Party of Kosovo, PDK, the political leader of which was the current president Hashim Thaçi, the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo, AAK, and the Social Democratic Initiative, NISMA), as well as the Democratic League of Kosovo, LDK, founded by the most famous Kosovar in the world – Ibrahim Rugova. Interestingly, this politician who is considered the real founding father of sovereign Kosovo did not believe in the KLA’s existence until 1997, when its commanders disclosed their identities, and the army started regular guerrilla warfare against the Serbian army. The conflict ended with NATO intervention in 1999, and, as a result, Kosovo was placed under UN’s supervision. However, the authorities in Belgrade never recognized Kosovo’s independence, and still officially include it in the Republic of Serbia’s administrative territory. In addition to the block of parties originating from the ULK and the Democratic League of Kosovo, the Vetëvendosje (Self-determination) party is also an important actor on the political scene. It is a typical protest party, with its agenda opposing the missions of international organizations of the UN (UNMIK) and the European Union (EULEX). The party also accused the West of supporting politicians blamed for corruption and war crimes. One of them was, among others, the former two-time Kosovar head of government and leader of the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo, Ramush Haradinaj, who twice stood before the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and was acquitted both times of his alleged involvement in the murder of a few dozen people in 1998. During the second trial, several dozen potential witnesses to the prosecution lost their lives in difficult circumstances. “Kosovo je Srbija” – a slogan used in Serbia since 2004 © Robert Rajczyk’s private archive Self-determination, also known in the past for its support for the concept of “Greater Albania” – the reunification of all lands inhabited by Albanians – was against negotiations with Serbia under the auspices of the EU. However, in 2013 and 2015 technical agreements were signed to regulate the mutual relations between the two countries regarding the functioning of the Serbian government in the north of Kosovo, electricity supply, the telephone prefix for Kosovo +383 (the country previously used the Monaco prefix and some other prefixes), or traffic across the famous bridge over the Ibar River in Mitrovica (Kosovo), which divides the town into two parts – Serbian and Albanian. Serbia still does not formally recognize the independence of its neighbor. Kosovo is for the Serbs the cornerstone of their statehood and its symbol, with a similar importance to the one of Gniezno and Jasna Góra in Poland. In 1389, Serbia’s knights confronted Turkish troops in Kosovo Field. According to some historians, the Polish knights also fought on the Serbian side, and the course of the battle was, in fact, unresolved, although some sources indicate a Turkish victory. Prince Lazar, who was in command of the Serbian army, died and was almost immediately recognized as a saint by the Orthodox Church. At the same time, Milos Obilić became a symbol of sacrifice in the name of the nation. He was supposed to trick the Sultan Murad I and deprive him of his life while losing his own[1]. After his death, this legendary figure – because to this day, there is no evidence of its existence – became a cult object, known even on Mount Athos in Greece, one of the most sacred places of the Orthodox Church in the world. Kosovo once again took on significance in Serbian politics in 1989, when the then little-known Serbian communist Slobodan Milosevic, just like Prince Lazar (who, according to legend, ascended just after his death), arrived by helicopter to meet local Serbs on the 500th anniversary of the Battle of Kosovo. The locals complained about the way the ethnic majority of the province, the Kosovo Albanians, was treating them. During this meeting under Gazimestan, a monument in the shape of a medieval tower commemorating the Battle of Kosovo, the Serbian leader said the famous words of encouragement – that no one would be allowed to beat Kosovar Serbs again. These words gave rise to a serious escalation of the ethnic conflict in the province, which soon lost its autonomous status under an amendment to the constitution, and Kosovo Albanians created an underground parallel state structure led by Ibrahim Rugova. This resulted in the coexistence of two administrations in Kosovo: the official Serbian administration and the underground Albanian one, the latter of which had practically all the attributes of an independent state – including the armed forces of the KLA. After the UN took over the province, Kosovo’s structures came under the authority of UNMIK (United Nations Interim Mission in Kosovo), which led to the creation of the Provisional Combined Administrative Structures and then the Provisional Institutions of Self-Government, the subsequent nucleus of the state authorities of the Republic of Kosovo. Power was then shared or exercised alternately by the Democratic League of Kosovo and the Democratic Party of Kosovo. The largest power plant in Plemetina © Robert Rajczyk’s private archive In foreign policy, the previous governments had primarily focused on extending the formal and legal recognition of Kosovo’s internationally contested independence, and in domestic policy, mainly on the distribution of international financial aid. However, the young state of Kosovo, with its consolidating administrative structures and political system, has become a playing field for organized crime groups, mainly involved in smuggling, which has also been fostered by the high level of unemployment and the unfavorable structure of the local economy dominated by external subsidies – including financial transfers from the Kosovar diaspora around the world, representing over 10% of the country’s GDP. The latter forms of subsidies to the economy of Kosovo have been in place since the time of the underground state. They have served, among other things, as a voluntary tax for the Kosovo Liberation Army. As part of the international aid, non-governmental organizations began to arrive in Kosovo on a massive scale. For some of them, the main purpose of their activities was only to raise money through grants and spend it. The functioning of the political class, some of which originated from the Kosovo Liberation Army, also leaves much to be desired. For this reason, some politicians, including even the current president himself, have been accused of war crimes and involvement in arms smuggling, trafficking in stolen cars, oil, and cigarettes, as well as human trafficking and procurement. Another serious problem lies in widespread corruption. The Kosovo political and economic elite’s clearance has not been a priority for the parties in power so far. In addition, they have not particularly sought to consolidate the state at institutional and functional levels. Striving to maintain peace and the Balkans’ status quo, the Western world has focused on supporting efforts to stabilize Serbia-Kosovo relations. Politicians who were willing to compromise with Serbia could count on the positive response of the West. And it was precisely the attitude to agreements with the Republic of Serbia that was one of the most important topics on the political agenda in Kosovo. Protests against attempts to reach an agreement with a neighbor with the European Union’s “patronage” took various forms, ranging from street demonstrations to blocking parliamentary proceedings and spraying tear gas on the parliamentary floor. The protests were mainly conducted by the left-wing nationalist party Self-determination, which also opposed the demarcation of the state border with Montenegro, a condition for obtaining visa-free travel with the Schengen area for Kosovo (in the same way as in the case of the neighboring Balkan states). The agreement with Montenegro was negotiated by Hashim Thaçi himself, who was still Minister of Foreign Affairs at the time. Recently, however, as President of the Republic of Kosovo, Thaçi proposed that he and his Serbian counterpart Alexander Vucić should participate in the mutual correction of the two countries’ borders. This would consist of exchanging areas in the north of Kosovo inhabited by Serbs for areas in the Preševo Valley in the south of Serbia inhabited by Albanians and incorporating them into Kosovo. The initiative provoked strong controversy both among the people of Kosovo and the international community, which split between supporters of border correction at the price of stability in this region of the Balkans and opponents of demarcation opting to negotiate technical agreements on the matter. Another problem of the “teenage state” is also the division with its neighbors, Serbia and Montenegro, of national wealth from the times of the federation of the latter two states. The claims mainly concern the ownership of the Trepča mining complex, the Gazivode water reservoir supplying the hydroelectric power plant and Kosovo Power Station in Obilić, providing nearly 90% of the electricity supply in Kosovo. The World Bank estimates that mineral resources in the region are worth more than €13 billion. In addition, reserves in local mines are likely to last up to 1600 years of exploitation. The multi-ethnic structure of Kosovo does not facilitate the functioning of the young state either. The country’s constitution guarantees all national minorities, especially the Serb minority (the largest of all minorities), seats in parliament and positions within the government, but this does not solve the economic problems of the republic’s population of two million citizens. The Serbs and their compatriots – the Gorani people, who are Muslims by faith – make up seven percent of the population, while the Roma, who, in turn, cannot count on the support of the home state, make up one percent, which is almost 20 thousand people. Moreover, they are the ones who, together with the Ashkali (the “Albanized” Roma), most often live in the most challenging social conditions and are therefore assisted by non-governmental organizations. An example of one of the NGO’s activities is that in the town of Plementin in the municipality of Obilić, sometimes considered to be the most ecologically degraded place in Europe, after a stay in which some Western NGOs discourage their volunteers from becoming pregnant for a year after returning. The unstable economic situation is also reflected in the political scene. The average age of the population in Kosovo is 29 years, with every third person in the country unemployed, which strongly affects voter preferences. Slogans for a radical improvement of the social situation gain even more support than demands to combat widespread corruption. In such an atmosphere, the parliamentary elections in 2019, once again held before the end of the term, were won by the Vetëvendosje (Self-determination) party. Its leader Albin Kurti won the highest number of votes. The party has given up organizing violent street protests and disrupting parliament’s proceedings by spraying tear gas. It adopted a social-democratic economic agenda and started to represent the political left[2]. The Self-determination Party also became an advocate for the normalization of relations with its neighbor Serbia, something the party had previously opposed since it considered the prior attempts to reach an agreement with Serbia as unfavorable and concluded under the dictates of international organizations. Following the October 2019 elections, the process of establishing the cabinet took several months, making it an infamous tradition of Kosovo’s politics. The winning Self-determination and the Democratic League of Kosovo could not reach an agreement in particular regarding the appointment of ministers and support for a common candidate in the 2021 presidential elections. Eventually, the number of ministries was reduced to fifteen, and the cabinet’s agenda focused on accelerating economic development (economic growth amounts to several percent per year), support for local entrepreneurship, reform of education, health, and the judiciary. The new PM Albin Kurti, however, took vigorous action just after his appointment in early February 2020. The nearly 100% increase in ministerial salaries adopted by the previous cabinet was withdrawn. A partial lifting of the import tariffs on products from Serbia, also established by the predecessors, was announced. Such high tariffs were introduced after Kosovo’s application to join Interpol was rejected. This refusal also resulted in the adoption in mid-December 2018 of amendments to the three laws aimed at transforming the Kosovo Security Force into the army within ten years[3]. Nearly two-thirds of people surveyed positively assessed the actions of Prime Minister Kurti’s government. However, at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) filed a vote of no confidence against the head of government. The Prime Minister’s declarations concerning the fight against corruption in the form of the vetting of the assets of judges and staff members of military forces turned out to be a problem. The bone of contention was also the issue of negotiations with neighboring Serbia. Prime Minister Kurti wanted to discuss the situation with Belgrade on an equal footing. The Democratic League of Kosovo, on the other hand, in line with American plans, wanted to reach an agreement with Serbia at the price of territorial exchange in favor of Belgrade. This stance is also supported by the president of Kosovo, who intends to be seen as the main player in Kosovo-Serbian relations in the eyes of the US. Thaçi was supposed to talk to the Serbian president Vučić about the agreement in Washington at the end of June 2020. However, his plane turned back after the prosecutor of the Hague Kosovo Specialist Chambers and Specialist Prosecutor’s Office filed an indictment against him. The current President of Kosovo has been accused of being responsible for the crimes committed by soldiers of the Kosovo Liberation Army while he was commander of the KLA in 1999. Nevertheless, it would seem that the US President’s ambition is to bring the conflict between Kosovo and Serbia to an end, which includes border revisions and mutual recognition of the parties. That is why on June 3, 2020, exactly four months after the appointment of Mr. Kurti as Prime Minister, with considerable political support from the USA, the Kosovar Parliament approved the establishment of the government of Avdullah Hoti from the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) in coalition with the previously opposing Social Democratic Initiative (NISMA) and the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK). The government, which has a low reputation in Kosovo’s people due to the way its predecessors were removed from power, was endorsed by 61 out of 120 parliamentarians. The Vetëvendosje (of the former Prime Minister Kurti) boycotted the vote. Although the current government supports national minorities, Kosovo’s most pressing social problem is still the settlement of relations with the Serbian minority. After all, social studies show that one in four Serbs living in the north of the country does not want to visit the Albanian part of Kosovo. [1] The mausoleum dedicated to Murad I is located near Gazimestan. It is visible from the tower, which now serves as a tourist attraction and a and historic site. [2] The party was founded in 2004 as a protest movement against the involvement of international organizations in Kosovo. A year before the 2008 Kosovo declaration of independence, a demonstration organized by Self-determination gathered 60,000 participants and was concluded with the police intervention. A 45-year-old Albin Kurti, a former student activist, became the leader of the party. [3] The Kosovo Security Force comprises 2.5 thousand officers holding light weapons who are responsible for, among other things, civil protection tasks. The Kosovo Security Force is multi-ethnic, with 6% of all local Serbs. After its planned transformation into an armed force, its size is to be doubled.

With the rate of data generation increasing exponentially in today’s technology-driven R&D world, there are both enormous opportunities and real challenges for science-driven organizations in transforming this data into pragmatically useful insights. For example, in the biopharmaceutical industry, Next Generation Sequencing screening technologies generate terabytes of data in a single run and automated bioreactors create multiple streams of process control and analytical data requiring highly integrated analysis. Additionally, growing datasets from patients, caregivers, and other sources, are creating massive repositories of data that researchers can exploit to identify and optimize potential new drug candidates. This explosion in both the types and volume of data is such that the ability of the human brain to process and evaluate the data is stretched to its capacity. In order to efficiently extract useful information from the data, the industry has been adopting artificial intelligence (AI) and big data approaches, particularly machine learning and deep learning. Numerous areas of biopharmaceutical R&D activity throughout discovery, clinical development, risk assessment, safety monitoring, regulatory, and manufacturing are turning to techniques developed for “big data” problems in the financial and consumer industries. According to the consulting firm CB Insights, $3.6 billion was invested across 481 healthcare AI deals from the first quarter of 2013 through the first quarter of 2018. Just a few of the many recent partnerships between major pharmaceutical companies and AI startups include: In April 2019, AstraZeneca started a partnership with BenevolentAI to help identify and develop new drugs for chronic kidney disease and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. In March 2019, Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) announced a multi-year strategic agreement with Concerto HealthAI that will integrate multiple data sources and apply AI and machine learning to accelerate oncology clinical trials, enable robust protocol design and generate insights for precision treatment and improved patient outcomes. In June 2019, Atomwise announced a multi-year collaboration with Lilly to apply Atomwise’s patented artificial intelligence (AI) technology in support of Lilly’s preclinical drug discovery efforts. These are some recent examples of the optimism that these technologies will change the way the biopharmaceutical industry discovers, develops, and manufactures medicines. In this blog, we will focus specifically on the challenges inherent in traditional drug discovery and development and discuss some of the ways in which biopharmaceutical companies are utilizing AI to improve efficiencies and speed the process of bringing new drugs to market. Drug Discovery and Development Challenges Drug discovery and development are challenging tasks. According to a 2014 study sponsored by the US Department Health and Human Services, it costs somewhere between $161 million and $2 billion to bring a new drug to market. This study also concluded that the average length of time from clinical development to marketing is on the rise over the last decade and currently stands at about 7.5 years. Including the discovery phase, this puts the time from initial R&D to market for a new drug well over a decade. As these longer timelines mean increased costs and decreased revenue, there is intense pressure to speed time to market for new drugs. A study on drug development success rates from 2006-2015 revealed that only 10% of drug candidates entering Phase I clinical trials make it to FDA approval stage. These poor success rates are a key component of the costs of drug discovery and development, and additionally these costs get passed down to patients, which can make drugs inaccessible to those who are uninsured or underinsured. It’s also important to note that an FDA approval is by no means a guarantee that a company will see a return on their investment. Post-market safety issues, competitive drug product releases, the increased speed of generic development, and market cost pressures all impact the economics of drug discovery and development. How AI Can Accelerate Drug Discovery and Development There are several areas where AI is being applied to improve the drug discovery and development process. A few of these include: Drug Candidate Identification. One of the most time-intensive steps in drug discovery is identifying which of the thousands of available chemical compounds can potentially offer help in treating an illness. The painstaking process of screening all these molecules for drug candidates takes enormous amounts of time for human researchers. Artificial intelligence has the potential to more rapidly and thoroughly analyze the reams of data produced in drug discovery to predict which drug candidates are likely to be effective treatments, saving both time and money for biopharmaceutical companies, as well as extracting more value out of the data generated by experimentation. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) is one of the companies taking the lead in this area. They announced a strategic drug discovery partnership utilizing Exscientia’s AI-enabled platform in 2017 to discover novel and selective small molecules for up to 10 disease-related targets. GSK is hopeful that this partnership will result in significantly shorter development times and reduced costs, as drug discovery screenings will mostly be replaced by supercomputer simulations and predictive algorithms. The first milestone in this collaboration was achieved in 2019, when Exscientia delivered “a highly potent in vivo active lead molecule targeting a novel pathway for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).” Forecasting Clinical Success. Another barrier to the successful development of new medicines is the high attrition rate of candidate drugs mentioned above. Improving the success percentage by just a few points by having less of these failed candidates would make it to clinical trials in the first place would be worth billions to the industry. By using AI, companies are hoping to better forecast the effects of substances earlier in the development process, effectively preserving clinical trial capacity and resources for testing drugs that have a better chance of success. The German company Innoplexus AG is making progress in this area. The company says its machine learning software can crawl through as many as 5 billion web pages a day using a natural-language processing algorithm trained on medical research to help assess the probabilities for the outcomes of clinical trials. Internal tests done by Innoplexus on 20,000 completed clinical trials found that their system correctly forecast the outcome of trials around 85% of the time. Combination Treatments. Finding effective combination therapies is one of the most challenging tasks for researchers. As IBM points out in a recent review, there are 1.8 million new articles published annually in MEDLINE alone, while the average human researcher reads only 250 to 300 medical and scientific journal articles a year. This suggests that human scientists struggle to keep up with all the research going on in their field. In contrast, IBM’s Watson AI supercomputer has “read” 25 million Medline abstracts, more than 1 million full-text medical journal articles, 4 million patents and is regularly updated. Pfizer announced a collaboration with IBM Watson in late 2016 to assist with finding combinations of agents that will spur the immune system into action and lead to better treatments for cancer. The hope is that Watson help Pfizer make non-obvious connections that its human scientists have missed, as finding combination medicines is even more challenging than looking for single compound therapies. Creating Personalized Medicines from Genetic Markers. Personalized medicine is based on the ability to identify patient sub-populations thought accurate diagnostic testing for biomarkers. Given the enormous amount of genomics data available, identifying effective biomarkers can be challenging for researchers. Genentech recently announced a collaboration with Cambridge, MA-based GNS Healthcare whose core focus is tailoring treatments to individuals genes. In this partnership, Genentech will use the GNS REFS™ (Reverse Engineering and Forward Simulation) causal machine learning and simulation platform to look for genetic patient response markers that could lead to targeted therapies. In addition, BenevolentAI – a leader in the use of AI for efficient diagnosis of diseases and drug discovery – recently discovered a number of promising biomarkers in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) disease that have produced several candidate drugs currently in development. Hype versus Reality It should be noted as a cautionary example that IBM appears to be redirecting its work on IBM Watson for Drug Discovery to clinical trial matching, which has seen more success. This was apparently based on lack of sufficient demand and financial performance for IBM Watson in this space. Similarly, in early 2017, the highly publicized partnership between MS Anderson cancer center and IBM was put on hold. As with many other examples of new technologies, the potential of AI as applied drug discovery and development is often overstated. With respect to the use of AI, there are significant concerns about the nature of the computer models that are produced with certain techniques: many deep-learning approaches for example produce black-box decisions with little traceability and insufficient supporting information. A cautionary approach to the vendor promises is warranted as we develop a better understanding of the best practices and limitations of AI in drug discovery and development. Additionally, the application of big data and machine learning have at their core the need for quality data. Preparing the data for use with these techniques – data cleansing – is today the single largest consumer of time and resources in these projects. The ability to recognize, and correct or remove flawed data, is a major consideration in these efforts. This makes a well-designed data architecture an essential pre-requisite. That architecture must cover the full data lifecycle, address master and reference data relationships, provide provenance, and ensure data integrity. Conclusion The examples cited in this blog document a few of the ways in which AI can potentially assist biopharmaceutical companies in drug discovery and development. Biopharmaceutical companies are currently exploring uses of this technology in all aspects of operations – from drug R&D to manufacturing, and even within product marketing and patient support. A small sampling of additional ways in which AI could impact the industry includes: Finding new uses for previously tested compounds Analyzing longitudinal patient data to match patients with the most appropriate long term treatment regimens Analyzing at medical images to detect signals the human eye would never see Improving clinical trial design, site selection and patient enrollment activities Improve the effectiveness and efficiency of pharmacovigilance measures Improving patient outcomes with mobile coaching using real-time data collection Improving clinician chronic disease management While AI holds much promise for transforming the Life Sciences, it is by no means a silver bullet. Successfully applying AI is much more than just deploying software. AI techniques will only be as good as the data they are given – clean, robust and large datasets are necessary for AI to generate effective conclusions. Companies that are considering AI solutions must first ensure that their overall systems architecture is capable of providing the data needed. No one expects AI to replace scientists. Instead, AI will help scientists work smarter by enabling more rapid and complete analysis of much larger data repositories to make decisions. It will always be necessary for human scientists to validate conclusions drawn by AI systems. Ultimately, AI will be a tool that will benefit patients by helping scientists create more and better life-saving medicines.

After 12 seasons as the head coach of Louisiana Ragin' Cajun basketball, Bob Marlin will return for another. Louisiana's season ended two weeks ago in a loss to Georgia State in the Sun Belt Conference Championship game, ending the Cajuns 2021-2022 season with an overall record of 16-15. With one year left on his contract, there had been speculation about his future. Louisiana Ragin' Cajun VP of Intercollegiate Athletics (Athletic Director) Dr. Bryan Maggard shared his input on the decision. "I think coach Marlin has certainly earned the right to finish his contract out," explained Maggard. "I feel what we did in March in the (Sun Belt) tournament certainly showed our team definitely has the capability (to win the tournament), even though Bob, myself, and the team was disappointed in the regular season. The tournament play showed us what we knew we were capable of doing." Marlin's record at Louisiana is 221-167, including 130 wins in Sun Belt play, the most ever for a head coach. In 2014, Louisiana won the Sun Belt Conference tournament, making the NCAA Tournament as a 14 seed, falling to Creighton in the first round. "I think Bob has a great opportunity to continue that momentum going into next year," said Maggard. "I know his student-athletes respect him greatly and came here because of him." The best regular season at Louisiana under Marlin came in 2018. The team won the Sun Belt Conference championship, winning a school-record 27 games, earning a spot in the NIT.

Get ready for your upcoming software engineering interview with Exponent's complete software engineering interview course. Work through the most commonly asked questions, learn interview techniques, and practice your skills before the big day. Node.js is among the most revolutionary technologies in the history of web development. It's widely used as part of the backend of thousands of web applications. For nearly any developer job having to do with the Backend, or Full-stack development, Node.js is a technology you must be familiar with. The following are the answers to some of the most common Node.js Interview Questions. What is Node.js and what are its Advantages? What are some common applications of Node? How are Node Packages Managed? How is npm different from npx? What do you understand about Callbacks? What does it mean that Node.js is single-threaded? What is meant by Synchronous vs Asynchronous? What is meant by Blocking vs Non-blocking? What is the Node.js Event loop? What do you understand about livbuv? Explain the EventEmitter API What is a child process in Node.js and how are they created? How do you create a server in Node.js? Explain Middleware Explain the Advantages vs the Drawbacks of using Node.js What is Node.js and what are its Advantages? Node.js is the most popular Javascript runtime environment. Traditionally, Javascript could only be run on the browser, using a specific engine to interpret the javascript code such as the V8 Engine inside Google Chrome. In 2009, Ryan Dahl released the open-source, cross-platform runtime environment that is Node.js. It allowed a place for javascript code to be run outside of the browser, taking javascript from a simple scripting language to capable of making REST APIs, Backend infrastructure, and network applications. Node.js runs by using chrome's V8 engine and is therefore highly scalable, lightweight, and fast. Beyond that Node is known for its massive ecosystem of Node packages that add functionality to a project using other open source Node modules, which is a great benefit to any developer. Node's inner workings are focused around a few things: its non-blocking I/O, its Asynchronous functionality, and its Event Loop. Each of these components will be explored as part of this article. What are some common applications of Node? Node.js essentially provides a runtime for javascript to function much like a general programming language. As such, it can be used to handle file systems, operating systems, servers, APIs, etc. However, much of Node's appeal is that it allows javascript to be the single main language across a code base when coupled with the frontend. As such, Node is typically seen being used to power the Backend of Web Applications, REST APIs, Microservice Architectures, and Networking tasks. Always keep in mind that Node.js was built for "building fast and scalable network applications... perfect for data-intensive real-time applications." How are Node Packages Managed? Most Node projects are accompanied with npm initialized to manage Node packages using the package.json and package-lock.json. Here, all dependencies of a Node project are outlined as well as any scripts available to assist in development. { "name": "example", "version": "0.1.0", "private": true, "homepage": ".", "dependencies": { }, "scripts": { }, "eslintConfig": { "extends": [] }, "browserslist": { "production": [], "development": [] }, "devDependencies": { } } A basic, empty package.json Node packages such as Express can provide an immense amount of support for any Node project as npm makes the integration and handling of packages incredibly easy for developers. Alternatives to npm include yarn. How is npm different from npx? This is a common distinction among beginner developers. Node Package Manager is an all in one tool to handle the installation and updates of third-party node packages. Node Package Executer, on the other hand, directly executes the contents of a node package without first installing it. The most common example of this is when using a Node package such as create-react-app where the package need only be executed rather than installed. Explain importing and exporting in Node The require keyword can be utilized to effectively import modules such as fs, http, or os and essentially store the value in a constant much like an object. const fs = require("fs"); const os = require("os"); const http = require("http"); const function Example(){ //some functional code } module.exports = Example; Module.Exports, on the other hand, is a simple bit of syntax that allows some function of a file to be used elsewhere in the project's codebase by way of the require keyword. What do you understand about Callbacks? Callback functions are pockets of code that run after a certain task, but allows other parts of the program to be run first so there is no blocking—eventually being called back. Callbacks are a concept you should familiarize yourself with as they're baked into much of Node's inner workings. function processData (callback) { fetchData(function (err, data) { if (err) { console.log("An error has occurred. Abort everything!"); return callback(err); } data += 1; callback(data); }); } This is the basic code sample for a callback from the Node documentation Despite this, many newer options have simplified the asynchronous tasks of Callbacks using Promises and more recently the ES6 async/await syntax. With both of the more modern options, there's much improved readability, better error handling, and more specified control flow. What does it mean that Node.js is single-threaded? In this context, threads refer to sequences of instructions or commands to be executed. This means that the Node runtime has a single thread in handling any requests it's given. While in reality, Node's code execution is more complex, this is the general simplification to initially understand Node's inner workings. Interestingly, however, Node can still handle concurrent events despite seemingly only having a single thread. There are two concepts that are at the core of Node and come much as a result of its single-threaded nature: Asynchronous execution, which gives rise to the concept of Node's Non-blocking I/O. What is meant by Synchronous vs Asynchronous? Asynchronous execution refers to code that is not executed where it appears in the program. Node will not wait for asynchronous code to finish, and will instead move on to the next task. By contrast, synchronous execution requires that Node wait for the operation to finish before moving on, thus executing precisely where it appears in the codebase. The concept of Non-blocking I/O is possible using Asynchronous execution. I/O meaning operations having to do with a system's disk and network such as making an HTTP request. These I/O operations have much more processing and time intensity, and therefore should always be done Asynchronously to prevent the single thread from being blocked. What is meant by Blocking vs Non-blocking? Blocking vs Non-Blocking simply refers to an operation that will prevent further execution until the prior operation is completed. The Node documentation says blocking is when additional Javascript execution needs to wait on the execution of non-Javascript operations. Node handles both Blocking and Non-blocking calls with its single thread. Note that all Blocking calls are executed synchronously and Non-blocking calls are executed asynchronously. In fact, several functions in the Node API contain blocking counterparts to otherwise non-blocking functions, having the word "sync" at the end. Note that this concept differs from Non-blocking I/O which essentially says that Node handles all I/O operations asynchronously due to their time intensity so that the thread may remain non-blocked. What is the Node.js Event loop? The Event loop is what allows for Node to conduct a Non-blocking I/O as well as asynchronous functions. The event loop functions by executing code from Node's single thread. In the case of asynchronous or I/O operations, the event loop will automatically offload the operation to the system kernel. Kernel's are built to be multi-threaded and can handle executing multiple operations in an asynchronous manner that the single-threaded Node could not on its own. The Event Loop is able to keep track of the unfinished async operations, looping back to check their status until all operations are finished. What do you understand about livbuv? Much like the V8 engine, livbuv is a resource Node uses under the hood to preform its operations, particularly the lower-level operations that allow for its aforementioned Non-blocking I/O and Event loop. Livbuv is a library originally written in C that allows Node to write non-blocking I/O operations. It allowed CPU to be used simultaneously and conduct a more efficient use of resources. The library also handles other operations including Child Processes and the File System. Explain the EventEmitter API The EventEmitter class is part of the events module in Node.js. It is what allows Node to emit events on backend servers much in the same way as on the browser where a user may interact with a UI element and cause an event to be emitted. The EventEmitter class contains two important methods: emit and on. Emit is what triggers an event and on allows for handing a specified event when it is triggered by way of a callback function. Using these two methods, Node can mimic much of the functionality of Events and Event handling that exists within browsers. The EventEmitter contains several more methods including once, removeListener, etc. Overall, however, the Event Emitter allows for custom events to be emitted and handled asynchronously. What is a child process in Node.js and how are they created? Node's utilization of a Single-threaded non-blocking Event loop works great. However, this style of server is still limited in how much load it can handle, and to build a scalable application a single thread is not enough. Therefore, having multiple child processes can offer the best solution for scalability. Node contains a child_process module to spawn multiple processes for handling events or executing code. The main two methods of creating a child process is through spawn() and fork(). spawn() is the simplest of these. It creates a new process implementing the EventEmitter. This allows the child process to handle events directly while communicating with other child processes via a messaging system. fork() is a specialized version of spawn(). In this case, the parent and child are able to communicate directly. Often memory-intensive operations can be carried to a forked process to free up the main event loop. On top of child processes interface is the concept of clusters. Cluster is its own module provided by Node that facilitates the creation of child processes to distribute workloads. Each child process made through the cluster module runs their own thread simultaneously and shares the same server port while leveraging the multi-core system. The sole method of creating a new process is through the cluster.fork() method. From there, several properties and methods are offered to handle the new processes. These methods and properties include disconnect() to disconnect all workers, send() to handle communication between processes, and worker to return a worker object as well as many others that can be found in the node documentation. When considering the difference between the Cluster and Child_process modules, understand that Cluster provides more functionality to fork a process on top of the functionality provided by the child_process module. How do you create a server in Node.js? One of the most common applications of Node.js is building server, you should understand how to make a basic HTTP web server using Node going into an interview. A basic server can be created using http.createServer() providing a requestListener which will automatically provide a response to any request made to the server. const http = require('http'); const requestListener = function (req, res) { res.writeHead(200); res.end('Hello, World!'); } const server = http.createServer(requestListener); server.listen(8080); Note that more complicated server architecture such as a REST API would typically be created using a framework, for instance Express. However under the hood, the same sorts of methods would be utilized. Explain Middleware Middleware is a common term used when building servers or APIs. It simply refers to the code that is between a request and specific business logic. Middleware can be used to execute code, parse request or response objects, end a request/response cycle, and more. Typically in the context of Node, middleware involves handling authentication, routing etc. Explain the Advantages vs the Drawbacks of using Node.js With all of this knowledge in mind, it's important that you're able to distinguish in what ways Node excels and in what ways it falls short. Node is one of the most prevalent, widely-used technologies in the globe, and yet alternatives exist. Even Node's creator Ryan Dahl released a new runtime in 2020 called Deno clearly meant to be the future of Node in some ways. So let's examine both the good and the bad of using Node in a modern application or project. Advantages On the surface level, Node is said to be Fast, Scalable, and Easy to Learn. Let's look at each of these. Of course Node is fast because of the V8 engine at its core, which is one of the resources Node uses that's programed in C++. More particularly, Node gains performance through its use of the Single-threaded Event Loop with Non-blocking I/O made possible via the livbuv library, written in C. The V8 engine is among the fastest of javascript engines, designed and maintained by Google. Add to that the strategic enablement of asynchronous programming execution with the Event Loop and its non-blocking nature, and it's easy to see how Node could be designed to handle complex network applications. This system design clearly makes for a highly performant runtime environment, which is why Node is remarked for its speed. On the topic of Scalability, Node's use of a single thread with an Event Loop provides a memory friendly system while integrating the concepts of child processes and Clusters to provide the advantages of leveraging a multi-core environment. This means that through the use of spawning child processes, workload can be distributed across multiple cores. For instance, an architecture may make provisions to have a cluster work only on I/O operations. Moreover, additional resources may be allotted to each of these processes to handle their load. This allows developers to scale their application to the degree in which they require, using only one child process or many. Beyond that, there's the shallow learning curve. Indeed, getting started with using Node is much the same as programming in vanilla javascript. The only major areas of adjustability is learning to work with package managers, built-in Node modules, and the basic premises of Node's architecture. However, very little beyond vanilla javascript and some backend features such as the http module is needed to begin developing a backend architecture with Node. That being said, Node has two more major reasons for its efficiency as a javascript runtime: Full-Stack JS and the Node ecosystem. Full-Stack JS, of course, refers to the idea of having the full tech stack of an application be developed through Javascript. This can cut down on development staff, and improve co-ordination and dev-ops between front-end and back-end. Of course, Node is certainly not the only javascript runtime. However, the Node ecosystem is unmatched. The Node Package Manager has grown to be an incredibly easy-to-use way of introducing third-party modules to facilitate virtually all possible Node applications. The support for Node extensibility increases every year. There are always new modules and tools being made to abstract the backend architecture and improve processes whether it be in IPC, working with Sockets, or developing REST APIs. Indeed, the Node ecosystem is itself much of the reason for Node having a shallow learning curve: tools like Socket.io improve and simplify communication between client and server, and Express can set up a Server and build APIs much quicker than by the manual use of the http module. Thus, it's for these five reasons (High-performance, Scalability, Ease-of-learning, Full Javascript integration, and Extensibility) that Node is so widely used and precisely why Node's architecture and inner-workings have set it up to preform as well as it does. Drawbacks Perhaps the most common complaint relating to Node is that is cannot be easily updated to fit modernizing standards. Much of the Node codebase is tangled with legacy projects, and thus the process of providing new features is increasingly difficult. This is one of the main reasons its creator Ryan Dahl started Deno—as a sort of evolution upon Node without having to worry about backwards-compatibility with thousands of legacy projects. On the occasions that Node has to update without backwards compatibility, developers need to readjust their projects, and thus the Node API is rarely stable. Beyond that, some argue Node can hit snags when faced with heavy computational tasks if not configured properly with child-processes. The last major drawback of Node has to do with the thousands of Node packages that exist. Often these packages are rehashes of existing projects, contain dozens of dependencies, and have very limited or poor library support. The reality of working with Node is that several packages will be used in the course of a project and the lack of library support can make the development experience significantly more challenging.

Omar Grandoso was born in Buenos Aires. He plays piano and trombone among other instruments. He has participated in many projects with different ensembles and plays regularly with many musicians in improvisation contexts. In addition to playing with free music groups, he also works within experimental films and contemporary dance; making compositions for theater, visual arts and multimedia. He is an activist in the musicians’ organization, MO – Músicos Organizados, that tries to both improve the work conditions of musicians and to strengthen their ties with the community. To avoid the fear brought on by the Covid pandemic and Omar concentrated on playing the electric piano in his room. After restrictions were lifted in Buenos Aires he scheduled two record sessions at a studio and tried to recreate what he had been doing in his room. He improvised and let other musics (and musics of others) simply appear in the improvisation. After letting the work sit for a time, he began working to condense the recording experience into an instant of the present. Este instante is an effort to converge memories from the past with visions of the future in a small particle of time called music.

Yes, squirrels eat hedge apples. If you've ever seen a hedge apple, you might wonder why a squirrel would eat them. Hedge apples are one ugly fruit. Nonetheless, squirrels like to eat them. There are differing opinions on whether squirrels really like to eat hedge apples. Some people believe that squirrels steer clear of them. Others say they have observed them eating the whole fruit. While still others have said squirrels tear the fruit apart so they can eat the seeds. The truth is, no one really knows why squirrels eat hedge apples but it's safe to assume that there are many reasons why a squirrel would choose this rather ugly fruit over other more tasty options. Hedge apple nutrition for squirrels In addition to nuts, a typical squirrel diet includes fruits and berries, tubers, roots, bark, and insects. Hedge apples make up a small part of this dietary diversity but offer benefits that other foods don't provide. In particular, nutrients like phosphorus play an important role in fertility and healthy bone development in young squirrels. Carbohydrates The seeds of hedge apples are carbohydrate-rich and make up part of the squirrel diet. The carbohydrates from hedge apples provide energy for young rodents still growing their weight, while adults can use this quick burst of energy to escape predators or search for new habitats. These seeds also contain small amounts of protein that help rebuild muscle fibers. Fats & Proteins Hedge apple seeds are not abundant in either fats or proteins, but they do offer small amounts that contribute to overall health and wellness. Squirrels need fat on a daily basis as an energy source, but they don't produce them on their own so they must find an outside source. Hedge apple seeds can be that source. Additionally, protein helps maintain strong muscles and bones throughout a squirrel's life cycle. Squirrels Eat Hedge Apple Seeds Hedge apples have dozens of small seeds that squirrels can eat with ease. All they need to do is chew through the outer covering and they'll find a good food source waiting inside. A single apple might contain few hundred seeds all packed together for easy consumption by hungry rodents. Hedge apples are typically eaten in large quantities during short feeding opportunities after the fruit drops from its tree or is harvested by humans. Hedge apple leaves and bark for squirrels Squirrels have a high metabolism rate so it doesn't take much food to satisfy their needs for long periods of time. Squirrels love to eat leaves and bark to add to variety to their diet. The hedge apple tree provides a great source of leaves and bark for squirrels to eat. Hedge apples grow on trees with bright green leaves - typically those dense with shade or partial sunlight. The fruit grows slowly, often taking several months before it reaches its full size. If you see a hedge apple hanging from a tree branch, chances are you'll also see nearby squirrel nests Hedge apple harvesting and when squirrels eat them Hedge apple harvesting typically occurs in September or October when people notice that fruit drops from trees. One hedge apple tree can yield many apples in a single season, which means squirrels won't go without. This is the time most often when squirrels eat hedge apples. They may also store some of the seeds away to eat later in the winter. How do squirrels eat hedge apples Squirrels typically use their teeth and jaws to tear into hedge apples. This makes it easy for squirrels to access tasty seeds inside. Once they're in, squirrels will either eat both the pulp and the seeds or only the seeds. Some animals have been known to eat both parts of hedge apples, including some birds, rabbits, and foxes. Food that squirrels eat besides hedge apples Other foods that appeal to squirrels include acorns, berries, nuts, insects, and seeds from palm and the American sycamore. These foods are readily available in many parts of North America, making it easy for squirrels to maintain their high metabolism and stay healthy throughout the year. Of course one fruit that squirrels love more than hedge apples is other apples. Squirrels eat apples from all over the world. Do squirrels eat hedge apples summary Do squirrels eat hedge apples? Yes, they do! Squirrels love to eat hedge apples because they are a great source of nutrition for them. Hedge apples contain antioxidants that help protect the cells in the body from damage. They also have anti-inflammatory properties which can help reduce inflammation in the body. Additionally, hedge apples are a good source of fiber which helps keep the digestive system functioning properly.

Alright folks, strap into a truly weird, fascinating, and fringe happening. To start: forget that whole monolith fad in places like Utah, California, Romania, and New Mexico (oh, that's right, you already forgot about it). Now imagine if John Locke, Rene Descartes, and a whole bunch of Enlightenment figures commissioned the construction of some giant Ten Commandment-looking slabs of granite. On these, they wrote multilingual, life guidelines for future, post-apocalypse humans, and then stacked the slabs into a geometric formation kind of like Legos-but-what-if-Stonehenge. Oh, and the entire structure serves as an astronomical calendar that also describes a time capsule of unknown contents buried somewhere, to be opened at an unknown date. And now, substitute "Enlightenment figures" for a dude named "R.C. Christian" (hint: not his real name), who, as Atlas Obscura describes, funneled nigh-limitless money from multiple banks and represented "A Small Group of Americans Who Seek The Age Of Reason," as the actual inscription on the "Georgia Guidestones" states. Yes, this is all true. Located along route 77 in a grassy field about two hours northeast of Atlanta, the Georgia Guidestones on "Guidestones Rd," as the signs say, cover ten principles for a prosperous, enlightened future written in English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, and Russian, as well as the ancient languages of Babylonian cuneiform, Classical Greek, Sanskrit, and Egyptian Hieroglyphics. Predictably, they and their mysterious origins have become the subject of endless conspiratorial debates about the Illuminati, aliens, the Antichrist, Satanists, you name it. Guidelines for a new, post-apocalyptic 'Age of Reason' Shutterstock So what are the guidelines that have opponents of ecumenicism and rational, secular humanism all in a dither? As All That's Interesting quotes: "1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature; 2. Guide reproduction wisely – improving fitness and diversity; 3. Unite humanity with a living new language; 4. Rule passion – faith – tradition – and all things with tempered reason; 5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts; 6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court; 7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials; 8. Balance personal rights with social duties; 9. Prize truth – beauty – love – seeking harmony with the infinite; 10. Be not a cancer on the earth – Leave room for nature – Leave room for nature." Planned for 20 years and finished in 1980, the Georgia Guidestones — too sincere to be a prank, too instructional to be an art exhibit — are composed of seven pieces of granite totaling nearly 240,000 pounds. It's free to visit and open 24-7, per Explore Georgia. Christian, the creator, said, "he was building a monument that could withstand the end of the world." Banker Wyatt Martin, who thought Christian was crazy, would only authorize the project on disclosure of Christian's real name; he destroyed the documents later. Martin later quoted Christian as saying, "If you want to keep people interested, you can let them know only so much."
