– Proceeds to further build commercial infrastructure and drive product adoption
Molecular Health, a leader in cloud-based healthcare decision support technology to enable evidence-based treatment decisions and improved outcomes, today announced that it has raised €25 million in private financing to expand commercial adoption of its healthcare decision engine. The round was led by current investor dievini, an investor in global life and health sciences companies. With the completion of this round of financing, Molecular Health has raised a total of approximately €100 million.
“Big data is largely driving decision-making for today’s physicians, diagnostic labs, and pharmaceutical companies. However, the sheer volume of data that exists today and its continuous, rapid expansion makes it increasingly complicated to digest and apply in a practical way,” said Lutz Voelker, Chief Executive Officer of Molecular Health. “Our platform integrates these data into the most comprehensive biomedical data warehouse in the world and quickly interprets information to generate accurate and actionable insights that drive important healthcare decisions, leading to both personalized treatment and more efficient therapy development. We greatly appreciate the continued support of dievini and look forward to expanding the company’s commercial infrastructure and driving adoption of our solutions.”
“Medicine is in one of its biggest changes ever, as molecular data and information are becoming the new currency in healthcare,” said Friedrich von Bohlen, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Managing Director of dievini. “We recognized long ago that Molecular Health was one of the most forward-thinking organizations in healthcare, with the unique potential to improve outcomes and health through the power of integrative computing and IT-based interpretation. We are excited to expand our support of Molecular Health, who are at the forefront of modern medicine, helping people in healthcare organizations improve understanding, interpretation and decision making.”

Empathic Accuracy in Young Married Couple Conversations
|If you are not a current Kalamazoo College student, faculty, or staff member, email firstname.lastname@example.org to request access to this thesis.
|Smith, Jean M.
|iv, 22 p.
|Empathic accuracy in young married couple dyads is explored using a combination of valence tasks, a discrete emotion task, and physiological measurements. Approximately 50 married couples aged 25 to 40 years are to be used in this study. It is predicted that the methods used, particularly the discrete emotion task, will lead to useful, valid results and a more accurate understanding of emotions as complex, functional, and discrete. We hypothesize that female gender, marital satisfaction, intelligence, and physiological linkage will correlate positively with empathic accuracy, and that physiological arousal and empathic accuracy will be negatively correlated.

Very happy to share that a project with the participation of Sérgio F. Sousa (BioSIM) in collaboration with Antti Posso, Piia Bartos and Astrid Subrizi (Univ of Eastern Finland) has been selected for funding by the Academy of Finland.
This 3-years project (AptaSIMS) will receive 500 k€ for simulations on aptamer design for targeted drug delivery. In addition, to project will also secure access to the LUMI supercomputer, the fastest supercomputer in Europe and the third fastest globally (the Top500 list published in May 2023). LUMI is also the seventh greenest supercomputer on the planet (the Green500 list published in May 202).
Aptamers are short RNA or DNA sequences that bind to their target proteins with high affinity and specificity. Traditionally aptamers are screened using a methodology called SELEX that is laborious and random. Here we want to include rational design into the development of aptamers using computational methodologies. By using the 3D structure of the aptamer and the target protein we can optimize the binding interactions and test experimentally only the most promising aptamers. This methodology can revolutionize aptamer design by making it easier, more rational and cheaper.

On 27th September 2022, a F-16 Fighting Falcon Block 50 fighter aircraft, currently being based at Misawa Air Base, reached a milestone of 10,000 flying hours. The Viper from Misawa was the second Block 50 jet to achieve that impressive accomplishment, and the third overall F-16 in the United States Air Force.
The aircraft that clocked over the 10,000 flying hours last week, was the ´913´, currently assigned to the 13th Fighter Squadron, 35th Operations Group of the 35th Fighter Wing. The milestone flight was performed by Lt. Col. Jordan Kahn, commander of the 13th FS.
Airfield in Misawa, located in the northern part of Honshu Island, is a joint air base of the Japan Air Self-Defence Force, the USAF and the US Navy. The base includes the Pacific Air Forces facilities and is the home of the 35th Fighter Wing and its two fighter squadrons, equipped with the F-16 Fighting Falcon jets.
The 13th Tactical Fighter Squadron was activated on 2nd May 1966, then being a part of the 388th Tactical Fighter Wing and equipped with F-105 Thunderchief and F-4D Phantom II aircraft. Shortly after achieving the combat ready status, the Squadron took part in the Vietnam War.
In 1971, the 13th Squadron adopted a panther as its mascot, nicknamed ´Eldridge´, after one of its pilots. On 15th August 1985, with its approval by the USAF, the black panther became the official emblem of the unit. According to the Squadron´s statement, the panther symbolizes the lightning quick reaction to aggression, while the number 13 honours members of the squadron who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.
The 13th Squadron is operating from Misawa air base since June of 1985. Over the next years, the unit was many times deployed for combat missions, including Afghanistan, Iraq and Jordan. In 1996 the tail code of the Squadron was changed from ´MJ´ to ´WW´, honouring the unit´s contribution in the Vietnam War and the ´Wild Weasel´ combat missions performed by the 13th Squadron during that conflict.

Everyone loves intellect devourers. Who doesn’t enjoy having their brain replaced by an actual brain with legs? It’s silly yet scary, a quintessential D&D monster. The little critters have always been dangerous, but in the 5th edition of D&D they are absurd. They are so deadly that I wouldn’t recommend ever using them. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have fun with them.
All it took is a realization: given how easily a 5e intellect devourer can defeat most people, you won’t ever meet one out in the open. Instead, you’ll encounter people and monsters who’ve once met the critters, and now carry them inside. One could even create a model for just how easily the IDs would spread. There clearly was a need (there wasn’t). So I made one such tool, using a Mandrake equation to estimate the odds an ID had taken over the person you’ve just met.
Give it a try: ID Odds Tool


Every year, Houston sees its fair share of stormy and windy weather, either from summer thunderstorms, tropical disturbances, or strong winter winds. After a storm, homeowners are often concerned about the stability and appearance of property, as well as personal safety, when limbs and trees fall due to high winds.
Unfortunately, disreputable and unscrupulous tree crews make an appearance after stormy weather to make a fast profit off property owners in need of immediate tree help. These dangerous and unprofessional tree crews may have their own truck, a few workers, and some equipment, but they are far from professional, safe, or reliable. In today’s blog post, we’ll look at the four signs of a disreputable tree company to help property owners avoid becoming a victim of unscrupulous tree crews.
Demanding Payment In Advance
Soliciting Tree Jobs Door-To-Door
Provide No Written Estimates or Work Orders
Disregard Safety Practices and Tree Care Standards
Disreputable tree crews and amateur workers offering their immediate services will typically not adhere to any OSHA safety standards, performing their work without safety goggles, tree harnesses, or cables and ropes to securely bring down large branches or tree trunks. They will also use unstable ladders and will work too close to power lines, jeopardizing their safety and health. In addition, these amateur tree crews will make recommendations for tree care services not endorsed by the tree care industry, such as tree topping. Tree topping is when the tree crown is cut down to keep limbs or branches from growing too tall, but severely harms the tree’s health.
Property owners do themselves and their property a major favor when they can avoid hiring disreputable and unprofessional tree crews to work on their property. When tree emergencies occur, Houston property owners can rely on Embark Services to safely and efficiently remove fallen trees and limbs with professionalism and reliability. Embark Services offers a full range of tree care and landscape services, including emergency tree services, tree pruning, tree removal, tree planting, landscape maintenance, debris removal, cabling and bracing, and tree evaluation. Contact Embark Services for more information on their outstanding tree care services, or go online to request a free consultation today!


Oswell called on the public to petition the government to 'put on the brakes and follow through on a serious examination of the impact this proposed project will have on our environment and our businesses.'
On Wednesday, Royal Caribbean said it got the government's green light to open its first Royal Beach Club at Paradise Island, with plans for the 17-acre project to begin receiving cruisers in 2025.
In a statement, Oswell alleged 'potentially devastating impacts to the Paradise Island coastline and the pristine beaches with any expansion of beach areas, overwater cabanas, seawalls, jetties or other structures.' She particularly cited concerns about potential impact to the thriving coral reef at the north seabed.
Oswell also said the impact of additional boat traffic in Nassau harbor to ferry guests, supplies, employees and other support service workers has not been adequately addressed.
Further concerns by the Atlantis chief pertain to desalination and wastewater treatment, emergency services/evacuation for large numbers of people using the Beach Club and the privatization of Paradise Island's last public beach.
Lost business downtown?
'The proposed beach project would assure that thousands of RCI visitors to Paradise Island will bypass our downtown, negatively impacting merchants, restaurants and other venues that rely on tourism,' Oswell asserted.
In taking her stance, Oswell is challenging one of Atlantis Paradise Island's major customers since Royal Caribbean sends many cruisers to the attraction on excursions.
Government plans environmental impact assessment
Bahamas Tourism Minister Chester Cooper told Eyewitness News his ministry is aware of Atlantis’s concerns and assured the project will be 'vetted properly.' Cooper also said the project's approval is subject to an environmental impact assessment and an environmental management plan, and Department of Environmental Planning and Protection is aware of the questions raised by Atlantis and remains satisfied these will be addressed as a part of the normal process.
Seatrade Cruise News reached out to Royal Caribbean for reaction, and the company initially said it would be commenting but did not end up doing so.

UK ministers are planning to use cancellation of a made-up debt to help meet their overseas aid target. Sudan currently ‘owes’ £678 million ($1bn) to the UK, and might qualify for debt cancellation in the next few years.
The Department for International Development (DFID) have admitted in an email to Jubilee Debt Campaign that any debt cancellation for Sudan would contribute to meeting the UK government’s aid targets. Jubilee Debt Campaign calculate that this theoretical money could account for as much as 7% of the aid budget.
The debt cancellation would cost the UK government nothing and will not make any more money available to Sudan. No repayments have been made by Sudan since the country defaulted on its debt in 1984. Yet the UK government is charging very high interest rates of 10-12% per year, increasing the original debt from £173 million to the current theoretical £678 million.
The money is owed to UK Export Finance (formerly ECGD), a unit of Vince Cable’s Department for Business. UK Export Finance backed commercial loans to Sudan during the Cold War to buy British exports. The department say that they do not know what exports the original loans in the 1970s and 1980s were for.
Tim Jones, Senior Policy Officer at the Jubilee Debt Campaign, said:
“Any debt cancellation for Sudan is not aid. The debt comes from loans to win business for Britain in the Cold War. Most of the debt is made-up money based on ridiculously high interest rates. The debt should be cancelled because it is unjust and unpayable, not used to meet targets and massage figures.
“Vince Cable needs to come clean and audit all the debt claimed by UK Export Finance, to find out who loans really did and did not benefit.”
Sudanese debt to the UK currently stands at £678m ($1bn), and is growing at £20 million a year. Sudan is expected to enter the international debt relief scheme in the next two years. If, for example, Sudan’s debt were cancelled in 2014, it would stand at £740m, totalling 7% of the aid budget.
Sudan owes Western governments $12 billion in total. Other countries are charging similarly high interest rates as the UK. If all western countries plan in the same way as the UK to use any debt cancellation to meet aid targets, this could knock $12 billion off aid spending in one year; around 12% of official aid.
1.Jubilee Debt Campaign is the UK coalition campaigning for cancellation of unjust and unpayable poor country debt.
3.The UK government says it does not know what it lent money for which led to the original debt being created (seehttp://www.theyworkforyou.com/wrans/?id=2011-01-17d.33178.h andhttp://www.theyworkforyou.com/wrans/?id=2011-03-16a.45330.h).


From Dawn to Dusk, 2022 (SOLD)
The delicate light of dawn leads into the day and to a lilac hued sunset.
Fresh hand coloured porcelain rolled, cut and press moulded onto
plaster moulds of origami-folded fabric, this creates the rippled edge.
See how the porcelain and its shadows change as day changes to night.
The mount and frame is custom made, hand-painted with a rich blue and edged with oak.
Framed and ready to hang 41 x 41cm
Capturing the Light in 3D...
My work focuses on light and shadow and the starting point for this work was my Grandfather Silvester's beautiful hand carved mantle shelf which sits above the fireplace in my dining room.
The words 'POST TENEBRAS LUX’ and their meaning 'Light After Darkness’ fascinated me as a child and took on even greater significance after our world's shared experience over the last two extraordinary years.
Like creatures thrown into darkness we have begun to emerge back into daylight.
This series of porcelain sculptures captures the changing hues of light through different time frames. In essence - painting light in 3D, with porcelain.
As always, colour is worked into the porcelain body and the surface and edge ripples come from pressing the porcelain onto moulds of folded origami.
The porcelain is unglazed and fired right through to 1248ºC.
Peaceful and contemplative works.

The Ducal Square was the Castle’s parade ground. For centuries, it was the town’s main square, near the palace, and home to the Town Hall. It used as a venue for festivals, “corral de comedias” (open-air comedy theatre) and, above all, bullfights. Nowadays, scenes from the Passion of Christ take place here on Good Friday, in what is locally known as the “Mandato”.
The rectangular square is accessed through an arched gateway. The houses around the square are three or four storeys high. One side of the square is taken by the Old Chapter House or Town Hall. The construction of this massive, austere building was completed in 1713. Alonso Moreno was the architect of this and all other buildings in this square.
Only the façade and first bay have been preserved. From the 14th to the late 18th century, the history of the town is linked to the Duchy of Arcos. It could be argued that the monumentality of individual buildings is due to the generous patronage of these Lords.
During the Ducal period, Marchena became a small, politically influential court. Most foundations had a religious disposition (except for the palace). This was the result of the mentality at that time.


The statement of fundamental truths listed below is intended to be a basis of fellowship and voluntary cooperation. The list is derived from the official Assemblies of God Statement of Fundamental Truths which represent the nonnegotiable tenants of faith that all Assemblies of God institutions adhere to.
This statement does not claim to contain all Biblical Truth, but the irreducible minimum for all full Gospel ministry. Thus, this statement of faith is essential because it provides an explanation of our understanding of what the Bible teaches, and thereby provides the framework in which our curriculum and instruction occurs.
We believe the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, are verbally inspired of God and are the infallible revelation of God to man, serving as our all sufficient rule for faith and practice.
Nature of God
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ was sent of God, begotten of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and came into the world as Savior for man’s redemption.
When Christ came to the earth in the incarnation, God’s Life was housed in a body prepared by Mary. He was tested of the devil in every aspect of human life, crucified, resurrected, ascended to the Father and was glorified as the incorruptible seed, the Word of God (I Peter 1:23). This seed of Life is what is planted into the dead spirits of men by the miracle of the new birth.
Man was created in the image of God and became alienated from God through Adam’s sin. The Lord Jesus Christ came into this world, died for our sins according to the Scripture, giving His Life a sacrifice and shedding His Blood. Being reconciled by His death, the saving Life of Jesus Christ becomes the new nature that is to be fed and developed by the Holy Spirit in each Christian (Romans 5:10).
We believe in the ordinance of baptism by immersion as commanded in the Scriptures by our LORD for all believers, to appropriate their death with Christ on Calvary and rise with Him in newness of life.
Resurrection and Return of Christ
We believe Christ arose from the dead with a glorified body, ascended into heaven and is on the right hand of the Father as our Advocate and our High Priest. Three appearances of Christ were ordained in the Divine plan: the first was when he came into the world through the miracle of the incarnation; the second will occur when He returns for those who have received the cleansing of His Blood, the impartation of His Life, and have made themselves ready; the third will be when He returns with His saints to reign on earth for one thousand years.
Baptism of the Holy Spirit and Divine Healing
We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with evidence as in Acts 2:4. We believe that in God’s redemption plan for man He has provided through His Son and by the Holy Spirit the miracle of healing for the body, soul and spirit.
We believe there will be a final judgment in which whosoever is not found written in the Book of Life will be consigned to the lake of fire.
We believe that God is bringing His Church to completion and expect to see an increasing demonstration of God’s supernatural grace and power in meeting human need.

Nationals Member for Euroa Annabelle Cleeland has called on the Allan Labor Government to support sporting clubs in the region with much needed investment for crucial infrastructure upgrades.
Ms Cleeland has written to both the Treasurer and the Minister for Community Sport on behalf of the region’s sporting clubs, asking that they be considered for funding opportunities as part of the $60 million Regional Community Sport Development Fund.
The fund was established to deliver projects in regional towns following Labor’s shambolic failure to deliver the 2026 Commonwealth Games.
“Sporting clubs are the lifeblood of our regional towns, and it has been so disheartening to see them ignored by this Government for so long,” Ms Cleeland said.
“While the cancellation of the Commonwealth Games was a slap in the face for regional communities across the state, this Government now has a chance to show some support for our local sports clubs.”
Local sporting clubs like Longwood Football Netball Club, Seymour Football Netball Club, Rushworth Bowls Club, and the Murchison-Toolamba Football Netball Club are just some of the many local organisations that have long been campaigning for much needed upgrades to their facilities.
“Despite these clubs being previously overlooked at the State Budget and numerous other opportunities, they have been incredibly determined in pushing to get these upgrades underway,” Ms Cleeland said.
“So many of our clubs are in desperate need of new and fit-for-purpose equipment, as well as amenities that can best serve the community.
“Clubs like the Redlegs in Longwood have been relentlessly pushing for vital upgrades to their facilities, particularly to add female changerooms to deal with their growing netball program.
“Our local sports clubs are providing people with a strong sense of community, belonging, and an active lifestyle, and deserve all the support they can get.”

Cash Cycle Survey 2019 results
7 Layer asked central banks about their key currency related deliverables in 2019. We received completed surveys from 30 central banks across every continent detailing 137 different projects.
The survey results were provided to us on an anonymous basis. Therefore, these are the headline conclusions that we have drawn from the aggregated responses.
The key overall findings were:
- Changing cash usage is a concern for a wide range of central banks across the world, not only those countries experiencing “less cash” already.
- Better data and information is a key priority to support policy and operational decision making.
- Cash logistics (sorting, distribution etc.) is a mature activity for central banks with projects focused on delivering quality and efficiency rather than more capacity.
- Outsourcing is a growing trend with a significant focus on getting the regulations right and in place.
- It is now normal for new banknote designs to be phased in over time rather than launched simultaneously in a single new family release.
- Banknote durability is a core focus in almost all of the re-design projects. The number of countries involved in upgrades or new design releases was substantial.
- Supplier management is more talked about than done.
As usual we have donated £30 to UNICEF for each completed survey and we have provided those who took part with a comprehensive report. We conduct a central bank survey every year and hope that, if you are from a central bank, you might consider taking part in 2020!


Elena Salillas is currently a Marie Curie Fellow at University of Padova (Dept. Of Neuroscienze).
She has developed diverse research lines along her career. They include research on language processing, math cognition, developmental disorders (Dyscalculia) or bilingual math. For that, she has updated her methodological knowledge when the research questions required new techniques. Thus, she has applied Behavioral, Electrophysiology, Experimental Neuropsychology, lesion analyses, TMS, MEG techniques to test her hypotheses. Perhaps her most sustained research has dealt with the study of spatio-numerical representation from 2004 and Bilingual Math from 2008. From 2010 she developed a consistent line of research describing the specifics of Bilingual math functioning. Addressing questions that have important implications for developmental disorders and math training in bilinguals, laying within important debates in math cognition. Her hypotheses can be transposed to the learning of other contents where the management of the two languages for one process is necessary from early learning. ES has developed another important research line, which merges to the health sector: Two projects on presurgical mapping in two distinct types of patients (intractable epilepsy and brain tumors). They entailed a collaboration with Florida Hospital from children (FH) in the US and Hospital Cruces in Bilbao. They deal mainly with mapping of language and math functions and imply different methods: ECoG and MEG in FH and fMRI, MEG and DCE in the Hospital Cruces. Currently, she has focused on the information that the study of reorganization of math functions in brain tumor patients (LGG) can provide in the understanding of the numerical system. She develops this new line of research at the University of Padova (Dpt. Of Neuroscienze) as a Marie Curie Fellow, in collaboration with the PNC, the AOP and the IRCCS Fondazione Ospedale San Camillo in Lido.
Her current research interests mainly involve:
– Finding regularities in the reorganization of the numerical brain in LGG patients, as a channel for understanding alternative neural pathways for the same numerical function, and with the ultimate goal of supporting rehabilitation. This is done through the combination of various neuroimaging techniques with a longitudinal approach.
– The development of a math battery for the mapping of brain math functions in epilepsy patients, combining MEG and ECoG techniques (In collaboration with Florida Hospital, Orlando, US).
– Brain systems for calculation and the processing of non-numerical dimensions


The history of this domaine, situated in Meursault, began with the marriage of Claude Duvergey and Marie Taboureau in 1868. Their parents were winegrowers. Claude founded the House of Duvergey-Taboureau and started the spirits and wine merchant business. In 1879, he acquired the “Les Herbeux” estate, which is the current heart of the domaine.
Duvergey also started to buy vineyards throughout Burgundy and invested in viticulture. In 1893, Jacques Prieur was born. He was the great nephew of Marie Taboureau and inherited the domaine in 1920. In 1924, together with Comte Jules Lafon, he instituted the famous “Paulée de Meursault” to celebrate the end of the harvest with all winegrowers of Meursault. Jacques Prieur was also the co-founder of the famous “Chevaliers du Tastevin”.
In 1956, he decided to give his name to the domaine. Jacques Prieur died in 1965 and he left the estate and the winery to his 6 children. In 1988, 5 important French families (including the Labruyère family) bought the domaine in order to prevent selling the estate to foreign investors. The Labruyère family became the major shareholders and at present they run, together with the heirs of Jacques Prieur, the domaine.
The domaine has 21 Ha of vineyards (11 Ha of Pinot Noir vines and 10 Ha of Chardonnay vines) and Jacques Prieur owns plots in 1/3 of all Grands Crus in the Côte d’Or, such as Le Montrachet Grand Cru, Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru, Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, Musigny Grand Cru, Chambertin Grand Cru and Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru. They furthermore own plots of vineyards in 14 Premier Crus, such as Meursault 1er Cru”Les Perrières” and Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru “Les Combettes”.
A beautiful domaine with an outstanding portfolio, the wines are worth seeking out to exprerience.Lees meer


Sol Mexican Cocina is now open inside the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace. The Baja-style restaurant is serving coastal Mexican favorites like duck tacos, ceviche, and grilled elote corn inside a breezy and open restaurant space on the Las Vegas Strip. The dining room opens to a bar with lounge seating in shades of beige and black. Inside, the ceiling is draped in cool tan sheets, swaying over the restaurant’s centerpiece, a boulder with a sculpture made of tree boughs and fabric.
The menu spans more traditional Mexican favorites to modern takes, like the Vampiro chicken taco, with chicken and chiles encased in a quesadilla, rather than an individual tortilla. The Canarditas duck combines deep-fried duck leg confit with tequila-laced blackberry serrano salsa. An appetizer of grilled street corn is presented tableside, where a server shaves sweet kernels off a cob, into a bowl of sauce and spices, ready to be scooped up with crispy seasoned tortilla rounds. And the Spanish octopus is impossibly tender, combined with spicy sauce and fingerling potatoes. For dessert, there’s a warm and surprisingly fluffy churro served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
The beverage menu highlights the restaurant’s hand-crafted margaritas along with over 100 mezcal and tequila-focused cocktails. Some cocktails are made with Bruno Mars’ SelvaRey line of rum, like the Cold Bruno espresso martini that Mars helped develop. Other drinks are made with Cardi B’s Whipshots booze-infused whipped cream. A cocktail called the Chainsmoker uses the DJ duo’s tequila brand to create a cocktail that overflows with smoke.
Sol, from the Southern California-based Xperience Restaurant Group is located inside the space previously occupied by Border Grill, near RPM Italian. It’s open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
Nick, Nick, and Nick bring Nick the Greek to Las Vegas

The slowest month to sell a house is October and December. With the holidays either past or around the corner, these months can be especially hard to sell houses. To help combat this, there are some helpful tips at https://www.martinlegacyholdings.com/sell-my-house-fast-in-hephzibah-ga/ for sellers who want to and need to sell their homes in these months.
It’s not easy selling a house during holiday season. Houses may have been on sale for as long as six months in some cases and buyers’ buying priorities will change over time from family vacations to Christmas gifts when they start looking again in January.
When selling a house in October or December, it may be helpful to be transparent about potential holiday showings and, as much as possible, schedule all showings on weekends. Also, consider advertising that the house will be open for all types of showings during the week between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
The Christmas season can also cause buyers to take a break from looking at houses. Potential buyers will take this time to go on family vacations or schedule a vacation for next year.
When thinking about listing a house during the holiday season, it is helpful to start advertising the house as early as possible. Potential buyers may be busy at work with deadlines and other projects, so they may not have time to search listings in October and December. If a house is listed in October or November, it could take more than six months to sell – much longer than other months throughout the year.
For sellers and realtors, the key to selling a house in October or December is to be proactive while also being sensitive to buyer’s needs. With an aggressive marketing plan and an open house policy, these months may be better than others when it comes to selling a home.
There are other factors that could come into play for potential buyers’ buying priorities. Potential buyers might want their Christmas shopping done early before beginning their vacation in December or may want to start looking for a new home before their vacation ends. These situations will determine when they are able to search for a new home.
How October May Sell a House
When thinking about selling a house in October, there are many advantages to advertising in September or early October. Potential sellers should start advertising the property early, if possible. This will enable them to start generating interest before the busy Thanksgiving season kicks off – when family may be too distracted to stop by and see homes.

Real Life Disaster Movie Memoir. This is one of those memoirs from someone who was “on the ground” at an event that so very many of us have lived through and with, and thus someone whose experiences are at least worth exploring. That noted, Almand and her husband are both 70 ish yr old seniors with comorbidities (including Type 1 Diabetes in her husband) that make them more susceptible to COVID-19, and this does in fact inform much of her own thoughts on the issue. Still, as a memoir of a sort of Gilligan’s Island – where they went out expecting one thing and got something dramatically different that cast them into a survival situation – this is quite remarkable. From being at Mardi Gras 2020 to being at some of the last NBA games to be played outside the “bubbles” to piecing together where to go in light of confusing, conflicting, and scant data to the various experiences of coming to terms with the new life and reality, this is truly an interesting memoir. Recommended.

The purpose of the Hamilton County Master Gardener Association shall be to promote the art, science, and pleasure of gardening in the community, in cooperation with the Cooperative Extension Service of Hamilton County and Purdue University.
A Brief History . . . . .
The Master Gardener Program began in the early 1970’s in Seattle, Washington, and came to Indiana in 1978. From the very beginning the Master Gardener Program has been about people wanting to learn more about good gardening practices, meeting the challenges of gardening and sharing that knowledge with others in their communities.
Here in Indiana there are more than seventy-five counties currently offering Master Gardener Programs and some 50 counties with active Master Gardener associations. The Hamilton County Master Gardener Association (HCMGA) was formed in 1985 by half-a-dozen gardeners and was among the first in the state.
Our purpose . . . . .
as stated in our Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws . . . is to promote the art, science and pleasure of gardening in the community, in cooperation with the Cooperative Extension Service of Hamilton County and Purdue University.
Ways of accomplishing this . . . . .
HCMGA provides the community with information on good gardening practices through news articles, talks and presentations; by staffing information booths at the Flower & Patio Show, the State Fair and the Hamilton County 4-H Fair; providing answers to gardening questions through the Purdue, Hamilton County, Education Center: answering questions at the annual plant sale; by presentations provided county wide by the Seeds of Knowledge volunteers; and working with youth organizations and schools.
Structural Details . . . . .
HCMGA is an Indiana not-for-profit corporation. The funding of the associations activities comes from the sale of plants at the annual Spring Plant Sale and the sale of iris and daylilies. Proceeds from these sales allow for the funding of the Barney Hobbs Memorial Horticulture Scholarships, the Small Grants Programs, and the activities of all the association’s committees. HCMGA receives no government funding.
There are eleven (11) elected officers: Past President, President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant Treasurer and five (5) Officers-at-Large elected each October at the HCMGA Annual Meeting. These officers form the Board, that meets once a month and is charged with supporting the activities of the committees and the membership. The Purdue ANR Educator is the master gardener adviser and also makes the decisions as to what counts for volunteers hours, education hours and tracks all of these electronically.
HCMGA is based in the Purdue Extension Office, Hamilton County:
address: Hamilton County Master Gardener Association
2003 Pleasant Street, Noblesville, IN 46060
HCMGA is also supported by the Purdue Extension, Hamilton County staff who also support all other activities of the Extension program.


Song of the Day: The Rolling Stones “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking”
The Rolling Stones have been kicking around since 1962! My mom was a big Stones fan and even saw them eight months pregnant with my little brother in 1975, so I grew up with LOTS of Stones albums in our house. Although they made great music before and after, for me their best is the run of LPs from Beggars Banquet in 1968 to Exile on Main Street in 1972. Today’s sselection, “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking” appeared on their 1971 LP Sticky Fingers which came with the infamous Andy Warhol designed zipper sleeve. The album proved to be one of the Stones‘ best known albums, and for good reason. The LP is loaded with hits, but really finds itself on some of the incredible deep album cuts.
One such deep cut is “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking”. The song is an epic, clocking in at seven minutes and fifteen seconds. A lot of people don’t know that the long instrumental break at the end was a happy accident. As with a lot of Stones songs, the song started with a Keith Richards riff, this one built around a dirty open G chords, but when they played the song in the studio and got to the end, Richards kept playing liking, the groove. Then all the other musicians (including Billy Preston on keys and Bobby Keys on sax) joined back in and kept the jam going. And what a jam it was: a one take master class in groove and swing highlighted by an amazing Mick Taylor guitar solo! Definitely one of the Stones‘ finest moments and thank goodness they kept the tape rolling.


The growing interest of research in the field of renal stem cells and kidney regeneration aims to get results that allow its clinical application, favoring the birth and development of regenerative medicine.
Nephrogenesis requires differentiation into epithelial cells of a population of progenitor mesenchymal cells. Since this process ends at 36-38 weeks of gestational age, it is quite likely to imagine that such a population disappears in the human kidney after birth. However, several studies have identified in different parts of the adult kidney cells having the characteristics of stem cells that would be involved in renal regenerative processes. They may be classified as resident mesenchymal/epithelial progenitors and often share the same genetic and epigenetic profile as progenitor stem cells active during embryonic life, thus suggesting a common origin.
Current literature includes two lines of thought: one attributes to stem cells a fundamental role in renal regeneration processes while the other sustains the intervention of other mechanisms.
The aim of this review is to report on progress made in research in the field of kidney regeneration starting from the past century and arriving at the present, with an analysis of scientific works that have produced the most important results in this field.

Casa Esperanza Montessori is a Charter School of grades K-8; and a private preschool located in Raleigh, NC. We offer a stimulating and enriching curriculum emphasizing academic core subjects, independence and organizational skills.
We continually seek professionals with a strong commitment to public education. We are very interested in engaging with enthusiastic individuals who hold themselves to high expectations.
We have hired international teachers for many years to support our Immersion program which has provided our students with amazing experiences in the classroom. One challenge that comes with this is that those teachers are with us for an appointed term and often end up having to return to their native countries after 3-4 years. Because of this, we consistently recruit bilingual and biliterate teachers to avoid not having a qualified teacher in the classroom. We take a similar approach for the Enrichment program understanding that teaching at Casa is a unique experience that requires a specific skill set and level of training and commitment.
Casa Esperanza Montessori Charter School is an Equal Opportunity Employer and strives to provide a work environment that welcomes diversity. Casa Esperanza does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, veteran status or any other reason prohibited by law.


Grand Master Tasos Tziamalis (5 Dan)
“Traditional Taekwon-do makes you strong in Body, Mind and Spirit.”Grand Master Anastasios Tziamalis
The unusual exercise movement of techniques and the synchronization which must be developed improves concentration and balance of body and mind. The results of the training gives you the confidence not to give up, but to always try and succeed.
In traditional TaeKwon-Do, the aim is to strengthen body and mind and to promote creativity through self-expression, not to break down or destroy. Emphasis is placed on each student’s own self-improvement. We learn through discipline and self-control to become courtesy and humble and how to think more spiritually so we can respect and help people.
Never forget that…!
With constant physical and mental exercise humans find balance and calmness.
You lead to self-discipline and he develops correct attitudes in all the behavior of his life.

Self Portrait.”Art work by Joni Mitchell, from “Morning Glory on the Vine” / Courtesy Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
Joni Mitchell is a woman of many talents—too many for the label “singer-songwriter” to encompass. It does not capture the literary depth of her lyricism, the unique strength of her distinctive voice, or the deftness and versatility of her guitar playing. Nor the fact that she’s one of the most interesting personalities in rock (or folk-rock/folk/folk-jazz, whatever). Mitchell’s biography is riveting; her chatty and cantankerous interviews a treat.
And, if you somehow didn’t know from her many album covers, Mitchell is also an accomplished visual artist. “I have always thought of myself as a painter derailed by circumstance,” she said in 2000. “I sing my sorrow and I paint my joy.” It’s a great quote, though she also sings her joy and paints sorrow—as in the portrait of her hero, Miles Davis, made just after his death. (Davis was a painter too, and they bonded over art.)
Mitchell began selling her work “when I was in high school to dentists, doctors—small time,” she told Rolling Stone in 1990. She has written poetry since her teenage years. Her imagistic songwriting came from a love of literary language. “I wrote poetry,” she says, “and I always wanted to make music. But I never put the two things together,” until she heard Dylan’s “Positively Fourth Street” and realized “you could make your songs literature.”
Painter, poet, singer, songwriter, guitarist—all of the artistic sides of Mitchell have mingled throughout her career in the visual splendor of her covers, compositions, and lyrics. They also came together in a rare 1971 book. After the release of Blue, Mitchell “gathered more than thirty drawings and watercolors in a ring binder and paired them with handwritten lyrics and bits of poetry,” writes Amanda Petrusich at The New Yorker.
She had the book handbound in an edition of 100 copies and gave it to friends for the holidays, calling it “The Christmas Book.” Now it has a different title, Morning Glory on the Vine, for a new edition to be released October 22nd. Part of the extensive celebrations for Mitchell’s 75th birthday, this edition fulfills a decade-long desire for the artist. “I always wanted to redo it and simplify the presentation,” she tells Petrusich. “Work is meant to be seen.”
The collection “feels consonant with Mitchell’s songwriting” in that it captures “tantalizing details about home,” in this case the home in Laurel Canyon that she shared with Graham Nash, the inspiration for the Crosby, Stills & Nash song “Our House.” Still life compositions and self-portraits, both “vivid” and “intimate,” complement her vulnerable, playful, “funny and weird,” lyrics and verses. You can see more of the paintings from Morning Glory on the Vine at The New Yorker and order a copy of the book here.


Navigating Partner Migration - Exploring Your Visa Alternatives
If you find yourself in a relationship with an Australian citizen or permanent resident, it's worthwhile to delve into the visa possibilities offered through partner migration. To initiate a partner application, you must either be legally married or in a de-facto relationship, sponsored by your Australian citizen, permanent resident partner, or eligible New Zealand citizen partner.
If in a defacto relationship, you must demonstrate either of the following:

Partner migration typically involves a two-stage process. Both the provisional and permanent partner applications are submitted at the initial stage. The Department of Home Affairs generally processes the application through a two-stage decision process.
The temporary partner visa allows the visa holder to reside, work, and study in Australia while the permanent partner visa application undergoes processing. The second stage, the permanent stage, necessitates the submission of additional evidence by the applicant and sponsor to affirm the continued genuineness of their relationship. This evidence can be provided two years after the initial visa application lodgement.

EDWARD WOODROW WARD
By Winnie Moore
Hood County News - August 5, 1989
Edward Woodrow Ward, better known as Ed Ward, is one of those who has lived all of his life in the same place - at least within a "stone's throw" of where he was born on Nov. 22, 1917.
Alva Clay and Beulah Denning Ward moved to that farm from Tolar in about 1915. Their families had settled in the Tolar area when they came to Texas from Tennessee.
Besides Ed, the Alva Wards were parents of one other son, Howard, who was killed in an automobile accident in 1950 and a daughter, Lemora Joyce McCarty, who resides in Hood River, Oregon.
Of course, Ed attended school in Lipan. He remembers that he was in the first grade when the bank in Lipan was robbed. In the chase that followed, bullets were fired and some of them went through the windows of the first-grade room. None of the students were injured and Ed says that they were not really frightened because it was over before they knew what was happening.
After graduating from high school in 1935, Ed began farming. He did attend Texas A&M for a short period of time but decided that farming was what he wanted to do. He was one of the first ones in the community to purchase a tractor.
On Dec. 9, 1939, Ed married Pauline Elsie Tipton. She was born at Morgan Mill on April 25, 1920. Her parents were William Otis and Lucy Elsie McKenzey Tipton. The family lived for a while at Albany. She attended school there and in the Hassel community and later at Lipan. Pauline has two brothers, Charlie Tipton of Granbury and William Tipton of Waxahachie, and one sister, Martha Bell Queen, who spends most of her time traveling.
Otis Tipton owned a feed mill in Lipan after moving back to this area from Albany.
Ed and Pauline are the parents of four children. Kevon lives on the original Ward farm east of Lipan, Eddie resides in Fort Worth, Nanetta Carol Pridgeon in Burleson and Edwisa Kay Queen in Arlington. There are eight grandchildren now and another one due by Christmas. There is also one great-grandchild.
Through the years besides farming, the Wards were also in the egg business for about 40 years. Deliveries were made twice a week to Fort Worth as well as other places.
Looking back, the Wards remember Lipan as a bustling little town, especially on Saturdays. The stores were crowded. They remember the store that was owned by Mr. Rippetoe which was located along where Lambertson's store is presently located. It was in that store where people gathered to listen to prize fights, etc. on the radio.
Rastus Cook owned one of the first cafes and also an ice house. A block of ice could be bought for 5 cents. The Bean store is also remembered as well as the "picture show" upstairs. Admission was 5 cents.
Ed remembers when his parents purchased their first car, a Model-T, when he was a young man. There were not many cars at that time. People mainly came to town in wagons that had to be parked behind the stores.
Ed and Pauline enjoy traveling. They are members of a travel club but enjoy traveling to other places. They are presently making plans for a trip to the Northwest in the near future.

Nobuko Sasaki is a lecturer at a university in Tokyo. She is the Azure Apostle and former accomplice to the Azure King, her lover, and attempts to ruin the Armed Detective Agency after her lover's death. Sasaki is a young woman of slim build with pale skin and dark brown eyes. She has straight black hair that reaches her mid-back, and long bangs across her forehead brushed slightly to the right. She wears a pale, cream shirt under a white bolero, a knee-length, light grey skirt, black stockings, and black low heels. During her visit to the cemetery, and later her death, she wears a plain white kimono. While Sasaki initially seems a kind, friendly, and a rather patient woman, she is more than meets the eye. An accomplished woman in the criminology field, she's remarkably intelligent and skilled in her field of expertise, giving her an especially profound understanding of people. A resourceful woman, she succeeds in manipulating a number of infamous criminals from behind the scenes, leaving few tracks and no way for her victims to track her down. Having no friends or family to turn to, Sasaki devoted herself to the Azure King's ideology, admitting to having no strong ambitions of her own, instead of appearing to cling to her lover's instead. Consequently, when the Azure King contemplated suicide after failing to change the corrupted government from the inside, Sasaki shows a surprisingly ruthless, drastic side, being the one who arranged many of the Azure King's terrorist attacks. This further emphasises Sasaki's intelligence, manipulating the situation from the background and allowing her lover to 'fulfil' his ideals. She shared his belief that the law system is too flawed to give influential people their due punishments, and had no qualms with schemes that led to not only their deaths but countless other victims. To Sasaki, the end justified the means: punish the so-called 'nonpunishable'. For all her accomplishments and wit, Sasaki, ultimately, feels hollow inside since the death of her lover, the Azure King. Having devoted herself to another person's ideology, Sasaki essentially lost her reason for living after his demise. She exhausted herself in attempts to fulfil her lover's desires and sense of justice, which she herself acknowledges did nothing but hurt her in the end. With no one to truly blame, Sasaki directed her anger and grief towards the Armed Detective Agency, due to their involvement in the Azure King's death, as if she had no one to blame, she felt she'd lose her mind. Nonetheless, Sasaki feels no joy nor sense of accomplishment in severely damaging the Agency's reputation. During her confrontation with Doppo Kunikida and Osamu Dazai, she expresses nothing but a hollow, exhausted sensation, reaching the end of her ropes in trying to fulfil the Azure King's ideals, noting the man never said he loved her to begin with. Her targeting the Agency stems from both resentment and desperation for something to live for, unable to live for her own desires. The victims who suffered because of her she viewed only as a means to an end. Sasaki points out that she could never with an idealist, as she'd always come last compared to their ideals, and ultimately be left behind. To her, the idealism the Azure King and Kunikida shared inevitably led people like Sasaki to feel left behind, always put second to ideals that could never truly be reached. Ironically, it's that exact nature that drew her toward Kunikida, to the point where she attempted to confess her love to him in her dying moments, showing considerable conflicting emotions with her feelings towards idealists.


After more than a year at Oregon State, married couple Davide Lazzati (Physics) and Catalina Segura (Forest Engineering, Resources and Management) still look back on their story and agree that it sounds like a fairy tale.
The two met in Colorado where Lazzati worked as a post-doc in Physics; Segura studied geography.
The academics were in different stages of their careers and in completely different departments, but they bonded over a love of the outdoors: skiing, hiking and cycling. After Segura finished her Ph.D. the couple had a baby and moved from their first home together in Colorado to North Carolina. Lazzati was offered a tenure-track job there while Segura accepted a postdoctoral research position. Both of them knew the opportunities for her there were slim, and the possibility of ending up at the same institution was next to impossible.
“Family is the most important thing to us,” Segura says. “But you also have to be happy with your own accomplishments.”
If one of them weren’t able to work for an extended period of time, or if the family found themselves split while each of them pursued separate opportunities, Segura says, “It would be a disaster!”
In North Carolina, the family longed for better opportunities out West, closer to where they’d met and closer to the outdoor settings they loved.
After dozens of applications, Segura was thrilled to interview for an assistant professor position at Oregon State in Forest Engineering, Resources and Management. She says she received help from a member of the search committee to know when in the interview process to bring up her partner. Once the University knew about Lazzati and his accomplishments in the fields of astronomy and physics, they began the process of hiring him through the Dual Career Hiring Initiative. This DCHI is funded by dollars allocated for tenure-track hires. When a tenure-line faculty member recruited for a position has partner who is eligible for a tenure-line position at Oregon State University, the Provost will support the partner hire as part of a collaboration with academic units. After completing an interview process, Lazzati was offered an associate professor position.
“It was amazing how fast the process worked,” Segura remembers. “It was so efficient to be able to get two deans, two heads and a provost all on the same page.”
Lazzati has been able to forge new ground in the College of Science as an astronomer studying gamma-ray bursts and the formation of cosmic dust.
“There wasn’t much astronomy going on before I got here,” Lazzati admits. “But everyone in the physics department was so welcoming. They go the extra mile to make space and to understand my needs.”
The couple has two children and love to spend time together outside as often as possible hiking, camping and riding bikes.
“We are very happy,” Lazzati says. “We feel lucky to be here.”


Marcin Pietruszewski is a Polish composer currently based in Edinburgh. He works largely with synthetic sound and uses compositional techniques developed in contemporary electroacoustic and computer music. He also engages with non-musical disciplines such as computational linguistics, mathematics, dance or design.
He works independently and in collaboration with artists such as Marcus Schmickler, Florian Hecker, Jules Rawlinson, Lauren Sarah Hayes, and BOAR collective. His sound piece and radio play for CTM 2016, “(dia)grammatology of space”, consists of a series of exploratory articulations between multilingual libretto, mechanical speech analysis/re-synthesis, and computer music. Its conceptual point of departure is an original libretto text written by Helen Hester and Katrina Burch from the Laboria Cubonics Collective and Virginia Barratt of VNSMatrix.


World-class, broadcast-quality limiting is an essential requirement for any audio production, and the latest standards also demand true-peak compliance. ISL delivers both, giving you superb sound with complete confidence about meeting the standards.
No need to second guess your sample-peak limiter time and again, or deliberately increase headroom to avoid a downstream problem. Just dial in your true-peak limit and let ISL take care of the rest.
Pristine quality true-peak limiting
ISL is a transparent look-ahead limiter designed to allow you to get on with creative audio production while it takes care of true-peak compliance for you.
ISL uses the standardized true-peak algorithms of ITU-R B.S. 1770 and related standards (including Apple ‘Mastered for iTunes’ true-peak detection), and is suitable for the control of audio for Post Production and Broadcast applications. True-peak limiting can also be used to ensure that downstream Codecs (mp3, AAC, etc.) do not introduce distortion into the signal.

The Royal Star & Garter charity is launching The Veteran Friendly Framework (VFF) to improve the quality of life for Armed Forces veterans in care homes ahead of Remembrance Day.
The project seeks to offer compassionate care to veteran residents and their loved ones, supporting their emotional and social needs.
Care homes which are already benefitting from VFF include Solihull, Surbiton, and High Wycombe.
Charles Byrne, Royal British Legion Director General, said: “Most veterans are cared for in civilian homes that in some cases may not understand their social, emotional, or physical needs.
“The exciting potential of this project is to raise the standards of care received by all members of the Armed Forces community living in all care homes.”
Royal Star & Garter believe each veteran can benefit from a tailored approach which accommodates their specific needs and preferences.
The importance of considering and celebrating the residents’ experiences in military service is emphasised in their mission to improve mental wellbeing.
Project leader, and former nurse for 32 years, Kathryn Glass, said: “There are prevalent and important aspects to consider when planning care for a resident.
“Some veterans have trigger days in the calendar year where they won’t engage with anybody and those go into our care plans.
“For example, one resident placed their war medals in a particular order and a staff member disrupted that order when they changed rooms.
“It’s a simple thing but made such a difference as he became very grumpy and didn’t speak.”
Family members have spoken of the relief that they feel knowing their loved ones are receiving the care and attention they need.
This allows them to focus on their relationship, sharing stories and reliving memories, freeing them from caring responsibilities.
The son of a veteran resident in Surbiton, Derek, explained that his father had changed since moving there.
He said: “I used to dread the phone ringing as it was often carers telling me something had gone wrong.
“Now when I come here, there’s a big smile on his face and I’m learning more about his past.
“The military connections here spark off memories for him.”
Out of 15,000 care homes in England, only 20 offer specialist support for those in the Armed Forces and their partners.
VVF has approved ten of these homes, striving to support the practical, emotional, and social needs of veterans by providing training and resources to improve overall care.

“Winter is coming” (cue the “Game of Thrones” theme song), but that doesn’t mean the construction season is over! Crews continue to build the future eastbound lanes of I-70, reconstruct York Street between 47th and 48th avenues and prepare for the installation of bridge beams (girders) for the southern half of the 4-acre cover park between Columbine and Clayton streets.
In preparation for opening the future eastbound lanes, 600 retaining structures, normally referred to as caissons, need to be installed for the wall panel foundation that supports this portion of the highway, separating the eastbound lanes of I-70 and the new 46th South Avenue. For both eastbound and westbound lanes, there are nearly 1,100 caissons to drill.
While building these future lanes of I-70, crews have also been reconstructing York Street between 47th and 48th avenues. This reconstruction includes railroad repairs, new sidewalks and new roadway.
In mid-November, construction crews will set girders for the southern half of the cover park, between Clayton and Columbine streets. These girders are large concrete beams that will support the bridge deck, or surface, where the park will be located. In total, 328 girders will be set. To date, there have been 183 girders installed on the northern half of the park. Each girder is about 100 feet long and weighs about 150,000 pounds! Crews will continue placing girders for the southern half of the park through early 2022. Once they are in place, construction of the bridge deck can begin!
The park will be complete in early 2023. Please find more information about this exciting element of the Central 70 Project on our website.
Motorists can also expect the following impacts on Central 70 through early 2022:
- Construction of the eastbound I-70 bridge deck above Brighton Boulevard
- Utility and railroad track work on York Street between 47th and 48th avenues
- Full closure of Fillmore Street bridge above I-70
- Excavation and wall work for the future eastbound lanes of I-70
- Construction of 46th South Avenue
- Punch list items at Quebec Street and I-70 interchange
- Continued overnight restriction of highway lanes and ramps to and from I-70 between Quebec Street and Chambers Road for maintenance
Activities are weather-dependent and subject to change.

Time- and memory-consuming calibration measurements are a major drawback in system-matrix-based reconstructions in magnetic particle imaging (MPI). Especially, exchanging the receive coils requires new system matrices and therefore new calibration measurements. To reduce the number of such measurements, the MPI transfer function can be used to transfer the system matrix of one receive coil set to another. The transfer function can be obtained by a direct measurement or by estimation using a measured system matrix of each setup. In this abstract, we extend the latter to incorporate coupling of the receive coils while using only a few voxels of the system matrices. In this way, we can transfer system matrices between two different receive setups, both of which may contain non-orthogonal coils.

Fold paper cranes for peace
Click headline for full article.
The story of Sadako, the 1000 cranes and the Children’s Peace Memorial
The story begins with the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945. Among those caught in the attack was a two-year-old girl named Sadako. In the years after the war Sadako initially seemed to have survived without negative effects; then, despite being an active, athletic young woman, she developed leukemia. While under treatment for her illness, one assumed directly related to the perceived effects of atomic radiation, she began folding origami (folded paper) cranes. Amassing a total of one thousand such cranes was assumed to insure the granting of a wish-and Sadako desperately wanted to live. Unfortunately, despite reaching her goal, she died at the age of sixteen.
Her classmates and friends continued folding cranes in her honor, then dedicated them as a prayer for peace. Eventually a Childrens’ Peace Memorial, using a model of the folded paper crane as one of its central motifs, was dedicated in Hiroshima’s Peace Park to the hundreds of child victims of the atomic bomb as an eternal prayer for a peaceful future world. Thereafter individuals and groups from around the world began bringing their collections of a thousand paper cranes to the monument as a concrete expression of their own personal or collective prayers for peace.
Your cranes can unite with thousands of others hanging near the Childrens Peace Memorial in Hiroshima to honor children killed by the atom bomb with a prayer for peace.
Makela writes, “How fortunate I feel to have been a part of that chain of circumstance. And, ultimately, how confident I am that in the end peace, indeed, will prevail.”
we are here by grace
we are meant to love
we will walk with hope
we will live for peace
Send Your Cranes To Hiroshima
To send a thousand cranes to the Children’s Monument in Hiroshima’s Peace Park, string them on garlands of 100 cranes each, and mail them to:
Office of the Mayor, City of Hiroshima
1 Chome Naka-ku
To string the cranes, attach a string to a long needle, push it through the hole in the bottom of each crane, and bring it out through the point in the center of the crane’s back. Be sure to tie a knot at the end of the string. To separate the cranes on the string, add a 1/4″ piece of a plastic straw or coffee stirrer between each crane.
Before sending them to Hiroshima, here are some other ways you can share the story of Sadako, the legend of the crane, and your beautiful display of paper cranes:
1. Hang them in a school or a public library, and ask the librarian to make a display of books related to Sadako, Japan, World War II, leukemia, and peace.
2. Bring them to a nursing home or hospital along with instructions for folding the cranes; it’s a wonderful activity to share with others.
3. Ask your local newspaper to publish a story about why you folded the cranes along with a picture of all the people who participated.
4. Look for someone traveling to Japan who would be willing to go to Hiroshima to personally place your cranes at the based of the statue. It could be a business person, a student, or someone visiting a relative. Call travel agents to see if they are booking people on flights to Japan, and ask them to help you find someone who might take on your crane mission.
Whether they are sent to Hiroshima, the President of the United States, the mayor of a small town, or a sick person recovering from an illness, the gift of a thousand paper cranes is a powerful gesture of caring, devotion, and love.
