The United States is not the first place that springs to mind when considering women dying in childbirth. So the fact that two American women die of pregnancy-related causes every day may come as a surprise. According to the World Bank, The US ranks 50th in maternal mortality globally - falling behind every other industrialised nation. A woman in the US is as likely to suffer a maternal death as a woman in sanctions-hit Iran, and four times as likely as a woman in Germany. "It is a preventable health issue," said Amnesty International's Rachel Ward. "It isn't something that we're waiting for a cure for. We’re waiting for political will." What's worse is that US maternal mortality rates may actually be on the rise. Eugene Declercq, of Boston University's School of Public Health, produced a short film named Birth by the numbers, discussing maternal mortality in the US. In a 2013 follow-up report, he noted how mortality rates in other industrialised nations had declined - but in the US, it increased by 30 percent in the first decade of the new millennium. Another 2013 report, this one by Truven Health Analytics, says the US spends more than any other country on costs associated with maternal healthcare. So why are American mothers still dying of pregnancy related deaths? The answer is complex and belies simple solutions. "There is sadly no magic bullet that explains what is behind the high levels of maternal mortality in the United States," Amnesty's Rachel Ward said. "It's a combination of factors that speak to the systemic problems of failing to provide affordable, accessible, quality health services to all women in the United States." One of these factors is likely the demographics of new mothers in the US. "Our women are older. Our main maternal age has risen," said Dr Sarah Kilpatrick of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. "We have a lot more women in their late 30s and 40s, when you have a higher chance of having other health issues such as cardiac disease." Obesity is also on the rise in the country, which also increases the chances of birthing complications. Many believe that the US healthcare system is in crisis. The Henry J Kaiser Family Foundation reported that 47 million non-elderly US residents had no health insurance in 2012. Uninsured pregnant women are eligible for Medicaid. But, according to the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, they receive fewer prenatal care services, are more likely to enter pregnancy with health problems, and are more likely to have adverse maternal health outcomes. It is a preventable health issue. It isn't something that we're waiting for a cure for. We’re waiting for political will. Poor women and women of colour are by far the hardest hit by this crisis. In 2012, 23 percent of African-American women and 36 percent of Hispanic women had no health insurance. A 2013 report by the New York Women's Foundation found that black women in New York City had a maternal mortality rate of 79 deaths per 100,000 live births - compared with 10 per 100,000 live births for white women. That means black women in New York have worse maternal mortality rates than women in either Syria or Iraq. Those numbers reflect a trend also cited in an Amnesty International 2011 follow up to its report, Deadly Delivery, which found that women in low-income areas were twice as likely to die a maternal death than women in high-income areas, and black women were four times as likely as white women to die while giving birth to a child. Open Arms Perinatal Services in Seattle is one organisation trying to fill the gaps women are slipping through. Open Arms provides doula care, non-medical social and emotional support to low-income mothers. "When Martin Luther King Jr was born, his mother did not have access to the local hospital because she was black, so we have this history of separating care," Open Arms Executive Director Sheila Capestany told Al Jazeera. "So you build things into your systems that are really hard to undo, and you have to undo them intentionally, you can't just expect they're going to go away." She believes that these community-based solutions are a crucial part of undoing the historical injustices that continue to resonate today. Focusing only on access to care obscures a more fundamental problem - whether that care is of a decent quality, even for those who can afford it. White women, the demographic most likely to have positive birth outcomes, and more likely to have health insurance, still have worse indicators than their counterparts in 24 other industrialised countries. In the United States, if you define all births as 'potentially dangerous', then you would make the argument that you need a specialist for every birth. That perspective has persisted, and, given that, we've got a problem. In almost every other industrialised nation, comprehensive maternal healthcare is inexpensive or even free. In Britain, midwives usually visit mothers at home two weeks after birth. In the Netherlands, more than 16 percent of births occur at home under the care of a midwife and are covered by insurance. In France, coverage includes a week's stay in the hospital, during which women also receive training in caring for her newborn. Most US insurance companies cover only what is considered medically necessary - and that usually means discharging women a day or two after birth with a single post-natal check-up six weeks after delivery. Ward, the managing director of Amnesty International's US programme told Al Jazeera this six weeks is a critical time period. "Tameka McFarquhar, she was 22, she bled to death in her apartment in New York after giving birth," Ward said of one of the women featured in her research. "She was alone, a home visit could have saved her life." Any area of neglect represents risks to maternal health, but with the right research and investment applied, such problems present opportunities to those working to reverse the numbers. "Maternal death is not solved yet, but I think we’re making huge strides to reduce it," said Kilpatrick, the chair of the department of obstetrics and gynaecology at Cedars-Sinai. US President Barack Obama's signature healthcare programme, the Affordable Care Act, which Republicans have tried to change or repeal a number of times, aims to increase the number of Americans with health insurance. The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists believes this could decrease the chances that women may become pregnant while already having potentially life threatening health problems. One low-cost solution is the increased use of midwives. The majority of births around the world are attended to by midwives. In Britain, that includes 57 percent of births. Stateside, fewer than eight percent of births are assisted by midwives. Most births are attended to by doctors, part of what makes maternal healthcare in the US so expensive. "In the United States, if you define all births as 'potentially dangerous', then you would make the argument that you need a specialist for every birth. That perspective has persisted, and, given that, we've got a problem,” said Boston University's Declercq. The problem is financial but it also may be medical. The rate of caesarean sections in the US is more than 30 percent - more than double the World Health Organisation's recommendation. Exposing mothers to interventions such as caesarean sections when they are not necessary also exposes them to potential risks, say experts. The American Congress of Obstetricians and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine recently released guidelines recommending that unnecessary caesarean sections should be reduced. "In my mind, there is no doubt that our C-section rate is too high in the United States," said Kilpatrick of Cedars-Sinai. "The good news is that it has plateaued. It's been the same for two to three years now." Amid the variety of medical and governmental changes that are being made, Capestany from Open Arms believes that there is also a basic social change that needs to be made in the way Americans understand childbirth. "It's not intuitive in the United States that, in fact, childbirth is more than just a medical event. It is a physical event that requires medical attention, social attention, and emotional attention," Capestany told Al Jazeera. "Until we acknowledge that, we're not going to be able to get the best care."

My name is Anna, I’m from Slovakia and I have alkaptonuria. When I was a baby, my mother noticed my nappies turned very dark. She contacted the doctor to see if there was anything wrong with me, however the doctor insisted I was a healthy baby. It wasn’t until I was 19 years old, when I was diagnosed with alkaptonuria. Gynecological testing was obligatory for girls my age and the results of my urine analysis revealed excess levels of homogentisic acid. Dr. Sršňová, a well-known Slovakian doctor in the field of genetics, informed me about my AKU. She warned me about the possible future developments of my body. She also sent my blood to Germany to be tested and analysed, but we did not receive any information on treatment. I started noticing my first symptoms in my 30s, after my two children were born. I got severe pain in my back, hips and joints. My body movements were much slower than others my age and normal daily life required a huge amount of energy. As I am growing older, the pain and strains on my daily life are growing and I have to plan how to spend my energy very carefully. It is very difficult because nobody understands how I am feeling every day. Most people do not believe me when I talk about future developments to my body, so I prefer not to talk about my feelings with other people and this can feel very lonely. I am now taking part in the SONIA 2 clinical trial that is looking at the effectiveness of nitisinone in treating AKU. For me, it is very important to participate in such research because I do not want future generations to go through the same thing as me. I feel it is my duty to contribute to this important research. It is also useful to keep updated on the AKU research developments. I also believe it is really important to find out what age AKU patients should start taking nitisinone through the SOFIA study, as this will prevent the unnecessary damage to children’s bodies. The research being conducted will also bring benefits to AKU patients in Slovakia, as it could result in nitisinone being licensed as a treatment for AKU. AKU is much more common in Slovakia than other areas of the world, so it is even more important to get a treatment.

Guard Patrick McCaw plans to sign with the Toronto Raptors, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, three days after he was waived by the Cleveland Cavaliers. Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium reports the one-year deal will be for the veteran’s minimum of $786,000. McCaw, 23, played three games with the Cavaliers after signing a two-year, nonguaranteed contract in December. Cleveland waived him before the guarantee date of Jan. 7, making him an unrestricted free agent. Per Marc Stein of the New York Times, the Golden State Warriors have asked the league to look into McCaw’s signing and near-immediate release with the Cavs. Stein notes that Cleveland could face “serious penalties” if found guilty of any wrongdoing. According to WKYC’s Ben Axelrod, a multi-million dollar fine or loss of draft picks could be in play. A member of the Warriors’ rotation during his first two NBA seasons, McCaw held out two months into the 2018-19 campaign to maneuver his way out of restricted free agency. The Warriors had given him a qualifying offer and a two-year, $5.2 million contract offer, both of which he turned down. When the Cavs handed him the two-year offer sheet, which Golden State did not match, it seemed more like an avenue to unrestricted free agency than anything. McCaw admitted he wanted to move on from the Warriors in his introductory press conference with the Cavs. “I loved playing in Golden State,” McCaw told reporters. “My teammates, the coaches, it was nothing really … nothing stands out to me to say I didn’t want to go back. Think it was just a personal thing where I was just like, I think it was time for me to move on for a new opportunity within myself. Nothing against Golden State, front office, coaches, players, the environment, it had nothing to do with any of that. It’s just a personal thing, and I wanted a new opportunity to move on. McCaw was clearly a bit rusty during his short stint with the Cavs, producing just five points on 2-of-9 shooting while playing 53 minutes. Cleveland has been experimenting with its lineups all season following the departure of LeBron James and adding McCaw on the fly was clearly a work in progress. Toronto will have more time to integrate McCaw, who will have to hope this fiasco to get him out of Golden State pays off in the long run.

es. Of course, the region is also home to a variety of unique activities, museums, restaurants and attractions that can be enjoyed during the colder season due to the climate. When planning your trip, consider these fun-filled vacation ideas. Get outdoors.Many parts of the country are too chilly to enjoy much time outdoors during the winter months, but heading south to an area like the Rio Grande Valley, home of the World Birding Center and National Butterfly Center, can provide the opportunity to find some time to appreciate nature. If you’re eager to see some wildlife, warmer climates can provide a true nature encounter, whether you visit a wildlife refuge or set out on a hike of your own. Plus, the moderate temperatures are appealing to many species. Bring along your bucket list . Crossing items off your bucket list can be especially exciting when you’re on the road. If there’s an experience you’ve always wanted to create, there’s no place like vacation to make it happen. For example, if you’ve never touched a stingray, visit an aquarium with a hands-on display. Learn to surf or go parasailing. Experience local cuisine. One way to explore the true flavor of a new vacation destination is the culinary scene. Instead of dining at familiar chains and restaurants you can find nearly anywhere, plan your meals around unique, cultural fusion cuisine. On the Texas-Mexico border you can find hybrid cuisine featuring dishes like tacos, grilled steaks and cheesefilled tamales that serve as a nod to the unique crossover culture. If you’re in need of a recommendation, ask your hotel concierges where they like to go for a hearty breakfast or where you can find the best patio for lunch. Seek out unique attractions.The opportunity to see and experience things you can’t find anyplace else is one of the best advantages of exploring a new place. A unique destination in South Texas like Quinta Mazatlan is a luxurious historic mansion constructed in the 1930s that is thought to be the largest adobe structure in the state. Today, the home is open to the public as an urban sanctuary working to enrich people’s lives by sharing knowledge about birds, plants and environmental stewardship.

December 2010 Fitness Diary! – Peter's Site! Saturday, December 4: The first few days of December were spent trying to go to the gym, but I wasn’t successful until the 4th. I spent an hour in the gym exercising my upper back, traps, lats, biceps, sides, lower back and ab muscles. That was after 3.5 kilometers on the treadmill which included about 9 minutes jogging which was the first time I’ve tried running since injuring my calf muscle. It felt OK, but not quite 100%. More like 99%. Monday, December 6: I started the week on a great note with an early morning workout before class. Chest, shoulders, triceps, sides, abs, lower back and 3 kilometers on the treadmill. I’m jogging more now as opposed to walking fast up an incline. Friday, December 17: Four kilometers on the treadmill followed by a chest, shoulders, and triceps workout which left me with the sorest chest in months. Sunday, December 19: A super-intense 30-minute workout in the morning: back, traps, lats, biceps, thighs, hamstrings, and calves. Tomorrow will be a day full of pain. Monday, December 20: Indeed it was. I was too sore to exercise. Tuesday, December 21: 3.5 kilometers on the treadmill followed by a pretty intense abs and lower back workout. The good news from tonights workout is that my calf, which I injured during the Hi-Seoul marathon, didn’t bother me at all while jogging. I think it’s 99.999999999 percent healed! Christmas Eve: A short sharp twenty-five minute workout at the gym: chest, shoulders, and triceps. My favorites. Christmas Day: A slower and steeper treadmill session followed by a legs weights session followed by beef stew, some red wine, tons of cheese and bread, some short bread, and about twenty really rich little chocolates. I’m still full 18 hours later. Sunday, December 26: Oops, I wanted to go for a swim and I made it to the swimming pool….. but it was closed. Drats. Instead, a light 35-minute walk from Keimyung subway station to home. Thursday, December 30: Another swim today (1.2 kilometers) and another longish walk (about 90 minutes). And as far as cardio goes, that was it for the 2010! Friday, December 31: I ended the year with a pure weights session: chest, shoulders, triceps, thighs, hamstrings, and calves. Well I sure exercised a lot in 2010! I still weigh too much though, so my diet still needs attention. Perhaps that’ll improve in 2011, but perhaps not. I can motivate myself to exercise, but motivating myself to eat less is a different matter altogether.

Sherry’s work helped me to unlock a deeply painful pattern of attracting men in relationships that drained and undervalued me. Shortly after engaging in the work with Sherry, I met and attracted an incredible man who cherishes me for who I am. We travel the world together. Sherry’s work is both healing and profound. She is able to use her considerable intuitive gifts to get to the heart of any issue or problem. She then works to shift the energy while offering tools the client can use to facilitate a positive outcome. Sherry is equal parts therapist, healer and magician! Sherry has helped me through my battle with cancer over the past 20 years. Her sessions have always brought a subtle yet powerful relief from the side effects of the treatment for my illness. I could feel a bubble of calming comfort that eased my suffering. Now that the cancer treatments are over, I am recovering very quickly. Sherry’s work has been a tangible wind behind my sails. What I totally respect and admire about Sherry’s skill is her wisdom. She understands the difference between power and wisdom. Psychic ability is power but without wisdom there is no humility. She has both. The most fun part is she has a great sense of humor. In this total woo-woo new age flood of information, it is refreshing to experience a grounded, talented, real person. I was having a hard time improving some of my own back and neck problems that were bothering me as a result of many accidents in my youth. My ribs were off to the right and I had referred pain down my legs. I was hunched over, my sacrum hurt to lay down. I lost the curve in my lumbar spine. After a session with Sherry, my pain went from an 8 to a 4 in twenty minutes and standing was a 3. After continued work, my whole body improved. I have less pain and everything feels looser. I can move more freely and am very grateful! I also feel calmer and more at peace. Sherry cleared my family’s karma, ancestral issues and patterns in-vitro for my unborn grandson after my daughter was rushed to the hospital with early labor and bleeding. It stopped immediately. Sherry told us many characteristics he would be born with including his extra-big feet that he would love. As soon as he was born, the doctor commented on how big his feet were. Our family is so happy he was carried to term and born healthy. I have worked with Sherry for over twenty years. I call her my ‘spiritual healer’, yet is difficult to put into words exactly what her work encompasses. I find Sherry to be bright, humble, connected to the universal force and aware of both the past, present, and future as she practices the art of healing in a special and effective way. Initially, I sought consultation through Sherry as I was looking for a medium who is clairvoyant but I quickly came to realize that she is much more than that. Throughout the years I have grown to rely on Sherry and I call her during times that I am unable to reach my spiritual, psychological, relational, health, home, and parenting goals. I find when I feel unbalanced and speak to Sherry, within minutes I feel calm and 100% tuned into my inner healing abilities as she helps me to get in touch with my higher power and true self. Over time I’ve come to emulate Sherry with the work I provide and facilitate for my own patients. Sherry has helped me through every milestone that I’ve had in my life for twenty years. She is wonderful during transition times. I trust her implicitly, which is something that does not come easily or frequently for me. She has helped me to live a full, active, successful life despite having chronic kidney disease for 26 years. The doctors have been amazed that I remained asymptomatic for so long and it was not until a month ago that I had to have a kidney transplant. With Sherry’s energy work, she has helped me to heal at a physiological and physical level and helped create healing spaces with the doctors, surgery room, my home and support team, and now a month later my doctors are again shocked at how well I have healed. Sherry helped me through the trauma of nearly dying during childbirth, and I used her as what I called a spiritual ‘midwife’. She was energetically again in the hospital with me and helped my daughter and I quickly heal. My daughter was only 3 lbs and needed oxygen, a breathing tube, and was in the NICU for 3 weeks. With Sherry’s assistance, my daughter is healthy, the tallest in her class, and thriving on every level! Sherry also helped me through a difficult divorce and worked on my ex-husband (who was very angry and uncooperative ) and me. Now we have harmony in our relationship. Sherry is an incredible healer and very attentive during crisis. Sherry gets measurable results! I would refer anybody to Sherry and believe fully in her knowledge about psychology, spirituality, medicine, healing, past lives, and connecting to the spiritual universal energy powerful tools! I consult Sherry before making most big decisions and believe she has been instrumental in helping me grow and find my true self. Today I am a confident happy person vibrating at a powerful level and I still consult Sherry on a regular basis! I received a clearing from Sherry regarding family dynamics which were on going for so many years. It had been my biggest weakness in moving forward in my life and my daughter’s life. It was on the paternal side with her father and his father and so on. His father recently passed away and we had gone to say goodbye that day just before he passed. There had been deep painful issues between my daughter’s dad and me, which shifted into issues between my daughter and her dad. They had not seen each other for almost a year. After the clearing, the communication was calm and clear. My daughter wrote him a letter and she went out for lunch with him today. He just picked her up and we all communicated very pleasantly. This is such an unbelievable shift. I am so appreciative of Sherry’s unique insight and gifts. Thank you so much, Sherry, for doing this for my daughter and for the family. I highly recommend Sherry. While working with Sherry I got a job offer for $40,000 more than I was making plus better opportunity and better benefits. Sherry saved my life. Sherry has assisted me thru pregnancy and healed me when I was told by doctors I had serious medical problems. She helped my best friend have a baby. Sherry helped me deal with and set boundaries with an abusive husband. She has given me some of the best advice that has completely changed my life. I have achieved greatness in my life and would not be who I am today without her. What I like best about Sherry, she will never come out and tell you anything you are not ready to hear. She cautiously approaches the deepest parts of yourself and cuts cords releasing energetically the things you don’t need. Sherry has a gift. I have no idea how she does it I just know it works. She knew I had an illness before my doctors did when I was hospitalized giving birth. I was so worried about my son, but she said it was me that needed the attention first. With Sherry’s help I have found love and also removed toxic people from my life. When you do a Sherry session you learn not only about yourself but how you interact with the people in your life. People always ask “she does all this over the phone?” YES!!! I have been on the phone and she will be working on my stomach and all of the sudden it starts rumbling. Sherry sees things that we can’t. She has saved my life, given me strength when I was weak and changed the lives of all the people I have referred her to. With her guidance I have found love, let go of love, gotten jobs, turned down jobs, had babies, literally every life changing event I will not do without a SHERRY SESSION. After a Sherry Session you feel clear, confident in your decisions and healthier. The things she knows and says are mind blowing. The best part about Sherry, during a session she proceeds cautiously. Before she does something she asks your higher self if this is the right thing. She is highly trained. Her actions and healing is done with great skill. You will never hear anything you are not ready for. Sometimes she has waited years to tell me something. Her job is not to change destiny. Her job is to guide you to your best strongest self in any given situation. I compare cleaning the grime off the most beautiful antique to find diamonds underneath. She energetically cleanses you. Sherry gives you exercises, meditations, things to do, vitamins to take, etc. Sometimes she tells you that you need to see a doctor. Her advice is detailed, specific and easily understood. I am so thankful that she is alive. I am so thankful I met her. She has helped me in my life more than anyone. I met her in 1996 on the Big Island of Hawaii. I have saved my notes from all my Sherry sessions. You will be a better person after working with her. Things make more sense. Decisions are easier. I am a better person because of Sherry. My sales doubled in one day! No need to hire a business coach, I know where to go to get the best business advice. I invested thousands in coaching programs to expand my business online. More guidance came through Sherry in one session than I received in the 4 month business coaching program I was in last year. I saved time, money and frustration. I had many aha moments and several ideas that I will develop into programs over the next year. Best of all, my sales doubled in one day after Sherry made some adjustments to my energy field. I didn’t even realize what I most needed to focus on in my session with Sherry, but she found my blind spot: replenishing my physical energy after a nasty chronic illness. After her work, the painful lymph glands in my armpits simmered down, and I felt a noticeable loosening in my head, neck, jaw, and shoulders, places where tension has long been centered. The next day, when I looked in the mirror, I immediately noticed a difference. Sluggish circulation had made me pale for years, but today my legs were pink, my face was pink – even my lips were noticeably darker! A sense of steadier energy flow goes with the circulation, and I’ve been receiving a lot of information about how to manage my energy, practically and emotionally, so it can continue to flow even more steadily. I am really grateful for the range and precision of Sherry’s work and I feel that what she’s started is continuing to support me. In one of my sessions with Sherry, I felt a lot of activity in my brain stem and a huge level of nervous tension release. Afterward, I felt more solid in my body, and also as if the “harness” on my neck and shoulders had been released. I’ve also noticed that it’s easier for me to stay away from old, depressive patterns. Thank you Sherry!

Dr. Raghunath Reddy, MD is a family medicine specialist in Stockton, CA and has been practicing for 26 years. He specializes in family medicine. This doctor will make you feel real disappointed and you start to wonder why hes still in business. ×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Raghunath Reddy, MD? Does not spend adequate time with his patients. Also, does not listen...He literally walked out mid sentence when I was speaking to him. It seems as though he doesn't think that listening to the patient is worthy of his time. Don't waste your time with this doctor! Staff is incredibly rude over the phone and dishonest about faxing prescriptions to pharmacies. What should be a simple 5 or 10 minute job of faxing prescriptions to pharmacies has taken several days.

A message posted on Grindr yesterday threatened a possible attack to local gay bars in Ostend on coast of Belgium. It indicated gay bars Valentino and Your Place as potential targets. The username chosen by the Grindr user is ‘Aanslag’, Dutch for ‘attacker’. The Brussels Times reports, after calls, local police have launched an investigation. The local prosecutor’s office says they are still unsure whether this was a prank or a real threat. Oddly, as small as this town is, visited there about 20 years ago. It’s not far from the beautiful city of Bruges.

This article came from a news app on Facebook so it may not be attainable for those who don’t access it. It is free however if you are interested. In this article, it discussed different affects diet soda has had on people. They tested 2,500 individuals and took into consideration all their health levels at the time. The subjects drank diet soda for a 10-year period. They found that those who drank diet soda on a daily basis were 43% more likely to experience a vascular event than those who didn’t drink any diet soda. A vascular event is when your blood vessels are restricting blood flow. It mostly occurs in the arms. It’s very serious and could cause death. The research couldn’t prove that diet soda causes heart attacks or strokes directly and could only show that there’s an association. I still find it interesting and important to talk about because what if it does? There are so many chemicals in diet drinks it has to hurt our systems in some way. The movie, The Corporation, has led me to believe that there are hundreds of people trying to cover up/stop this research from happening. Most believe that Coca-Cola came out with Coke Zero because they knew how harmful their Diet Coke product was and didn’t want to wait until that whistle was blown. So many people of my generation don’t think before they act. Energy drinks can cause death when mixed with alcohol and yet there is a Roxstar Energy drink with 6% vodka in it. Enough of those will put you in the hospital but so many young adults chug them down without a second thought. Studies like this really make you take a step back and realize that there are hundreds of corporations out there that don’t care about your health. I used to think, “if it’s on the market, it shouldn’t be dangerous.” That was my naive thinking as a young teen. The truth is the only one looking out for your health is you. Even those healthy drinks, when you read the ingredients there are numerous ingredients you’ve never even heard of and you know is a chemical. How dangerous is it? Will we ever know? My point of this blog isn’t to warm you about every single harmful product out there but to reconsider what you accept as normal. Some of you are drinking diet drinks everyday. Even if the drinks don’t cause the vascular events, do you really know? You can’t trust everything on a shelf.

The Gray Report: Thoughts on wine judging: Are 3 opinions better than 5? Thoughts on wine judging: Are 3 opinions better than 5? I'm flying home today from Portugal, where I just spent three days judging about 150 wines at Concours Mondial, Europe's biggest wine competition. I have to brag that I was a Jury President this year, the only one from the USA. In past years I just worried about my own opinion of the wines. I enjoy discussing wines with other judges, but this year, because I collected the scoresheets, I really noticed how divergent the opinions of even wine professionals are. My panel was also something of a tower of Babel, with five different first languages and no language fully shared by even three of us. That made it harder for us to influence each other, so our opinions were more pure. It's not news that two people can taste the same wine and think differently about it. But when it comes to awarding medals, a pattern quickly emerged to the detriment of wineries that entered wanting one. Two of us had similar palates. Two others had similar palates to each other. And the fifth judge was very different from any of us. If group A liked a wine, that could be two votes for a gold, but then group B might not like it, and vice versa. On all of the rare occasions when all four of us liked a wine, the fifth judge did not. So I don't believe we awarded a single gold medal out of 150 wines, although the Concours uses statistical analysis to eliminate outliers and may be able to fix that. All of us thought there were some gold medal worthy wines -- we just didn't agree on what they were. If there were 3 judges, it would be easier for two who agreed to discuss the wine with the third judge and come to a consensus. But with 5, it's really hard. Maybe the Concours wants that. Wine competitions lose respect if they give too many medals. One reason I love judging at it is that we taste so many wines we might never otherwise encounter. This year I enjoyed Rieslings from Bulgaria and Slovakia. In past years I loved a Brazilian Cabernet Franc and Viognier and discovered the high overall quality of Luxembourg Riesling. But realistically, if you taste a flight of 15 wines from an emerging wine country, you can't expect to give eight golds. The Concours had 7,050 wines entered last year and gave only 703 gold and grand gold medals combined, along with 1,329 silvers. Giving 10% gold and 19% silver keeps the medals meaningful. So there's a different side to my argument. However, there are winery owners in Rioja and Vinho Verde who won't get gold medals I think they deserved because the 5 of us couldn't agree, and even though being president of a jury with four Europeans felt like being a NATO general, I didn't feel it was my place to impose my will. I would like it if you would address comments to El Presidente. Last year I got in a Twitter discussion with Bruce Schoenfeld and Jamie Goode about which is worse: bad California Cabernet, or bad Bordeaux. Jamie asserted that we don't get the worst Bordeaux in the States and that its bottom end is lower. We had two flights of Bordeaux and on the last one, we thought the wines were Pinot Noir from a country with bad hygiene. Memo to Jamie Goode: You're right. A guy from Quebec sat next to me at breakfast on the first day and said he'd just been to California, driving up from Santa Barbara ("did you know the wineries in Sideways really exist?") through the Santa Cruz Mountains to Napa. He liked Bonny Doon and said he had a Pinot Noir from Marin County that he liked. He also said, "I had a California Cabernet, it was so oaky and bad, I couldn't drink it." The punchline is that he made this trip to write a book about California wine for Quebec readers, and he is already finished. Not a single gold medal out of 150 wines while the rest of the judges awarded gold at a 10-percent clip suggests the language differences played a significantly negative role in your deliberations, that your panel was exceptionally unlucky in the classes you were assigned, or that the panel preferences of your panel were so divergent and obstinate that it wouldn't matter whether you had three, five or seven judges chiming in. After over 25 years a judge for the Orange County Fair Wine Competition in California, I do have some observations. The OCFWC is not a concensus judging. The five jurists per panel are asked to score each/all wines and also recommend (or not recommend) a medal. The scores and recommendations are then weighted/averaged by an objective external awards committee. It's a clean system wherein strong opinions do not drown others during the tasting. Problematic to all wine competitions is the spectre of personal bias which is not at all the same thing as personal experience or skill. If the apple pies or roses at their respective competitions were to be judged as we do wines, Mom's pie and Grandma's roses would always be the marque....whether they were actually entered or not. Judges bring with them the illusion of the perfect wine ("Chenin Blanc cannot ever be of gold medal quality because Chardonnay is the best"). I argue that a wine competition is supposed to be about those who have gone to the time and expense of entering the competition and not some phantom product which has, more than likely, morphed over time. If there are three wines (or pies or roses) in a given class and none are flawed then there must be a Gold, a Silver and a Bronze winner no matter the judges' biased stytle preference or convoluted taste memory. Consequently, it is not reasonable, fair nor accurate to have a class where any medals are given(no flaws)and have no gold medal or blue ribbon awarded. Absent personal ego, the best wine, pie or rose on the table that day is, by definition, the Blue or the Gold by default. The answer to your titular question is a resounding "No". That's because you're looking at opinions, not empirical findings determined with similarly trained investigators using the same criteria and rubric to categorize findings and observations. This is not physically impossible, it's just that if you tried to take all the self-anointed wine "experts" and try to get them to agree and adhere to an SOP, everyone's *opinions* would get in the way and you could not gather enough people to make up a panel. Which leads me to the titular question in Jo Diaz's blog post today and my answer is: "use it for target practice". El Presidente - you are a star athlete. I have judged both wine competitions and beer competitions - tough duty. Can you make any recommendations on how to get ahold of these Luxembourger Rieslings and Brazilian Cab Francs you liked so much? It seems pretty hard to find this sort of off-the-wall, far-away wine even with importers who bring in unique stuff. Are there any you can recommend who specialize in the truly hard to find? I don't see the benefits of three versus five when it comes to medals. Either the panel is in sync or it is not. I have sat on panels of two and panels of five. Nothing helps is the panelists can't talk to each other, and by that, I don't mean language differences but palate and expectation differences. The note about the guy from Quebec is both instructive and hilarious. I love it when folks from other countries come here for brief visits and write books about California wine. I like it even better they go home, write learned articles in Decanter and get the bad vintages as good and vice versa because they think the only good CA wines are the ones structured like the masses of cheap European wines they are used to tasting. This is serious business, this wine judging that we do, and while I often find myself in disagreement with your commenter, SUAMW, I do think he is on the right track when he says that it would not matter how many tasters you put on the panel if they start with radically different or unknowing viewpoints. Mike: We were a little unlucky in classes of wine, I think. Our best group of all was some non-appellation wines from Spain, and that should tell you something. The upshot is that we probably DID award some gold medals, but it wasn't clear to me by looking at the scoresheets, as there was no consensus. Anon: There's just no reason for a Luxembourg winery to sell its wine here, or for an importer to buy it. That's a wealthy, thirsty market and they drink all their wines themselves. You would buy them, and I would, but there aren't enough customers like you and me. Yeah... I figured that'd be your answer about Luxembourg. I guess I'll just have to go over there and smuggle some back. I was reading some statistics about their wine import/export and it looks like they don't really import any New World wines to speak of either. Probably not much interest in importing Brazilian wine either then. I have a Slovak acquaintance who also likes only Rieslings. Do you recommend any? How are they on the sweetness scale?

I was glad to see the wonderful face of André Maman in the May 16 issue, and then saddened to learn the reason he was there (In Memoriam). Like many choices I made as a freshman, I wasn’t sure about signing up for French. I had studied the language for many years; it was the common language (along with English) of my European parents, and so I’d heard and spoken a lot of French before walking into the class (French 201? 203?) in East Pyne in the fall of 1980. Perhaps there were other, better courses I was missing? But then I hadn’t known about Professor Maman. He had us all on that first morning — and I can almost remember all the others in the class, just from the memory of his deep voice bellowing “Monsieur Golfinos?” “Mademoiselle Beckett?” “Mademoiselle Lareuse?” “Monsieur Nagorski?” and so forth. Like the best of teachers, Maman was demanding and fun, in the right measures, and always engaging. He kept you on your toes, made you not only want to read Camus but come to class with something intelligent to say about it — in French, of course. Merci encore, Monsieur Maman! Condolences to your family.

RUSH, Ark.—A gravel road near the Buffalo River winds past a century-old, 200-foot-long stone wall. Two flights of concrete steps penetrate the wall, forming grand entrances to the tangle of vegetation above. The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reports that the vacant lot was once the site of the Hicks Hotel in Rush, a bustling zinc-mining town that had a peak population of about 5,000 during World War I. Now, Rush is considered the only ghost town between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains. The two-story hotel burned down in the 1950s, and there's little evidence of the building that once stood on the patch of land. For many who pass through Rush, the stone wall is a mystery. No signs are posted to explain the history of the Hicks site. But that could change soon. The National Park Service asked researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville to digitally reconstruct the hotel and the Hicks General Store, which was next door. Three-dimensional images of the buildings are being created, and a website should be online by the end of the year, said Kimball Erdman, associate professor of landscape architecture at the university. Erdman is leading the project known officially as the Hicks Site Digital Interpretation. His scholarly research focuses on the history and preservation of designed and vernacular landscapes. After World War I ended, the price of zinc dropped and Rush began a slow decline until 1972, when — deserted — it became part of the Buffalo National River park area. Today, Rush Landing is well known as a stop for canoeists along the river. It is the last access point before the river passes through a 23-mile stretch of the Lower Buffalo Wilderness Area. People who venture a mile up Marion County Road 6035 from the river — or 5 miles east from Arkansas 14 — can find the skeletal remains of wood-frame buildings that still haunt the abandoned mining town. While many transients passed through Rush to work in the mines and live in tents or hardscrabble houses, the Hicks family was there to stay, said Erdman. "They invested in the community," he said, noting their permanence of the hotel and store. Miride Lee Hicks and his wife, Alice, moved from Flippin to Rush in 1903 and bought the wood-frame two-story hotel, which also was their home. An addition was built on to the back of the building at some point. The Hicks family served good food at the hotel, and water piped from a spring on the mountainside trickled perpetually into a reservoir in the yard, lulling guests to sleep at night, according to a 1915 article in the Harrison Times. In 1916, Lee Hicks constructed a two-story limestone building next-door for a general store. The top floor of the store provided additional hotel rooms. The store sold everything from groceries to dry goods, including caskets, according to Erdman's draft report on the project. By that time, Rush already had 10 general stores, three bakeries and many boarding houses and hotels, according to a 1916 article in The Mountain Echo of Yellville. Lee Hicks died in 1920 and his son, Rosco, took over the hotel and store. In 1929, Alice Hicks auctioned off the hotel, and most of the Hicks family eventually moved to California. Erdman said the hotel burned down sometime in the 1950s. In the 1960s, the top floor of the Hicks General Store was removed and the bottom floor was a residence for a few years, said Erdman. Now, only the foundation, side walls and part of the front and back walls remain. On Friday, a bathtub was the only thing within those walls, other than concrete and creeping vegetation. Angie Payne and Brian Culpepper, researchers in the university's Center for Advanced Spatial Technologies, are providing technical assistance for the digital reconstruction of the Hicks site. Erdman also hired two students from his historic-landscape preservation class to work on the project: Jordan Pitts of Little Rock and Addison Warren of Caledonia, Mississippi. The students spent part of the summer in Rush examining and measuring ruins at the Hicks site, which include remnants of other man-made features, such as concrete flower beds and a 30-foot-long "cattle dip" near the barn for tick treatments. The researchers also have a few photographs to help them reconstruct the buildings digitally. Payne, who is from Harrison, said the Hicks project is giving new life to a once forgotten homestead. "Being able to fully visualize the store, hotel and details in the surrounding historic landscape (all the way down to individual flower beds) really provides the visitor with a sense of what this part of Rush would have looked like during its heyday in the early 1920s," she said. "Combined with the detailed history of the site compiled by Dr. Erdman and his students, the final product will be a wonderful educational tool for learning about the Hicks homestead and its place in the history of the mining community at Rush." With a budget of $30,000, it's a relatively small project compared with others Erdman has done, such as the digital reconstruction of part of the Rohwer Relocation Center, a World War II Japanese-American internment camp in southeast Arkansas. More than $500,000 in federal funding was provided to create a Web-based digital archive, mapping database and 3-D digital reconstruction of a section of the Rohwer camp. Funding for the Hicks site digital reconstruction was provided by the National Park Service's Midwest Archeological Center, said Caven Clark, a spokesman for the Buffalo National River, which is administered by the Park Service. The center is in Lincoln, Nebraska. The 1,316-acre Rush Historic District was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. Suzanne Rogers, who was a historian with the Buffalo National River, described the attraction of Rush in the National Register nomination form. "The wood-frame structures quickly weather to a ghost-town appearance, but one which visitors find fascinating as they visualize the mining area and rural community life," she wrote. "The ruins contribute greatly to the overall 'discovery' of Rush by visitors." Clark said the Buffalo National River has requested funding to assess the need for "wayside exhibit" signs throughout the park, including Rush. The park already has several interpretive signs at Rush but none at the Hicks site. In his draft report, Erdman documents the deaths of the Hicks descendants, many of whom were in California by the time they died. During that same time, the Hicks homestead in Rush continued to deteriorate.

Couscous…so good they named it twice! We eat couscous a lot in our house, as a side dish and a fast alternative to pasta or rice. It’s certainly a funny name, and people always wonder what exactly this dish is. A rice? A grain? I’ll admit that I couldn’t have guessed what couscous is either. Who would have thought that couscous is actually just another form of pasta? Nutritionally, couscous is extremely similar to spaghetti—both contain two grams of dietary fiber and have about the same amount of calories (200) per serving. Many people think that couscous is a grain, but the base of both couscous and certain pastas (like spaghetti and macaroni) is semolina, a course wheat middling of durum that is yellow in color. The traditional way of making couscous is a pretty cool process. Instead of combining the semolina with water and egg to make into a dough for pasta, couscous is produced by moistening the semolina with a little water or oil between your hands until it crumbles into tiny granules or pearls. Traditionally, the grains of couscous are then dried and steamed in a pretty intricate steaming vessel—known as a couscoussiére—to be served as a base or side dish. I don’t know about you, but I certainly don’t have a couscoussiére lying around my kitchen. But the good news is that instant couscous is readily available to be bought commercially. It’s quick and easy to reconstitute couscous after buying it from a grocery store. All you have to do is combine 1 ½ cups of water to every cup of couscous plus a half teaspoon of salt. Next, add the couscous before the water has boiled. Unlike pasta, couscous should never be boiled! The water should be very hot but not boiling. Let sit for five minutes until the grains have swelled. Lastly, don’t forget to fluff the couscous once it’s done to prevent it from sticking together. Commercially produced couscous—available as regular or whole wheat—is a fairly complicated process. I linked a video below so you can see how it’s done. It is possible to make your own couscous at home with a food processor, but it takes a bit of practice to achieve the perfect grain size. However, if you have a couscoussiére at home, you can make perfect couscous as prepared in some of the finest restaurants. When you use instant couscous and add water to it, you extract some of the starch causing the grains to stick together. Using a couscoussiére insures a moist and fluffy result. Check out this very cool video produced by Williams – Sonoma on making it at home. Think about the actual taste of pasta without any sauce—pretty bland right? Couscous is the same way, which is why it’s typically served underneath a more flavorful meat or vegetable dish or sweetened with raisins. Couscous is nice and light and I like it mixed in with a summer salad of cucumbers and tomatoes or stuffed into hollowed-out peppers. Couscous can be served as a side dish, as I did with my Veal Scallopini and Artichokes, or you can create your own dish by adding ingredients to make a nice curried couscous. Couscous is a principal meal for Moroccans, Algerians, and Tunisians. The development of wheat farming in the 11th century spread the popularity of couscous to become a widely appreciated taste and texture, with many local variants all around the world. The traditional North African serving of couscous uses lamb chops or skinless chicken pieces with chickpeas and a variety of spices. One interesting thing I discovered is that there are three main types of couscous: Moroccan, Israeli, and Lebanese. Moroccan couscous tends to be the tiniest grain and cooks the quickest. Most of us are familiar with this type of couscous and it is the most readily available. I really like the Israeli or “pearl” couscous which take a little longer to cook because the pellets are about the size of peppercorns. I bought an Israeli style couscous blended with orzo, baby garbanzo beans, and red quinoa and used it as a side dish for my roasted Cornish Game Hens meal this past week. Lebanese couscous grains are even larger than the Israeli pearls and cook slowly, similar to a risotto.I have never tried cooking with Lebanese couscous, but I just purchased some and will give it a try and let you know. hello I like this article about couscous since it is my favorite food. I am from Algeria and it is our national food. I like to tell you that there are more than these 3 types in Algeria by itself. the larger type that you are talking about has another name here it is berkoukes and the name changes from city to another. couscous is sometimes made of barley and other grains. couscous may be eaten sweet with dates honey or grapes and milk as it may be eaten with fish meat chicken vegies and other preparation. Thanks Meriem for sharing that information. What you call Israeli couscous is called barkoukiche, there is no more Berber as a dish, just like couscous.In Algeria where it is manufactured in factory it is sold under the name of ” petits plombs ” in french language ( small lead ). It is the French repatriated from Algeria in 1962 which made known couscous in France where it became the second favorite dish of the French.I suppose that “Israeli couscous” was reported by Algerian Jews in Israel in the same way. DZ, thank you for your informative information about couscous. Very interesting.

As of 11:00 A.M., there were 1,864 Mazda fans (among these are 150 children), and 1,047 cars in the venue, in which 77 of those cars were exhibited by Mazda car owners. At around 10:00 A.M., there was an observation bus tour within the Proving Ground, and a long line at the ticket distribution area for the highway riding experience. In the venue, the attendees viewed the exhibited cars while enjoying their lunch, joined the games, and lined up for the technology experience; there were also Mazda staff everywhere who spoke in the Hiroshima dialect to many attendees.

HARRISBURG, Pa. — Pennsylvania is halting construction permits for natural gas pipelines operated by a company whose pipeline exploded last year, as the governor said Friday that Energy Transfer LP has failed to respect the state’s laws and communities. The Department of Environmental Protection said Energy Transfer hasn’t stabilized the soil and erosion around its Revolution pipeline in western Pennsylvania, as it was ordered to do in October. As a result, it is halting construction permits on the company’s pipelines in the state, it said. “This hold will continue until the operator corrects their violations to our satisfaction,” Environmental Protection Secretary Patrick McDonnell said in a statement. Energy Transfer’s pipelines in Pennsylvania include the Mariner East 1, 2 and 2X natural gas liquids pipelines across southern Pennsylvania. That has resulted in more than $13 million in fines and several temporary shutdown orders from state agencies, including one last month by the Public Utility Commission that has kept the Mariner East 1 pipeline shut down following a sinkhole that developed in suburban Philadelphia’s Chester County. Nearby residents worried over sinkholes along the Mariner East pipelines sued Energy Transfer last summer in federal court. Chester County’s district attorney, Tom Hogan, is demanding documents from the company as part of a criminal investigation he opened. Energy Transfer has said it is confident that it hasn’t violated criminal laws.

A live panel entitled “Countdown to Brexit: Where next for the UK and Europe?” will feature three academic experts discussing the potential outcomes and effects of Brexit. The event will be taking place on November 18. The event will feature three panelists and BBC news reporter Dr James Rodgers, who will chair the event. Principal of the University of Glasgow Professor Anton Muscatelli features on the panel. Muscatelli previously opposed Brexit and backed the Remain campaign, claiming that: “Brexit could have a deleterious effect on the Scottish economy”. Muscatelli was previously a consultant to the World Bank and the European Commission. He is the chair of the Scottish Government’s Standing Council on Europe and advises the House of Commons’ Treasury Select Committee on monetary policy and is one of the country’s leading economists. After it was announced that Brexit was to become a reality, Muscatelli was eager to send reassurance to international students at Glasgow University and confirmed that he would ensure it affected their studies in as little a way as possible. He opts to maintain a European outlook at the University of Glasgow. The panel also features Dr Uta Staiger, Executive Director at the European Institute of University College London. She researches modern European politics and the role that culture plays in establishing both citizenship and democracy. Her input to the panel will establish the connection between Brexit and culture and the arts. Staiger was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of the Arts in 2012 and she has a PhD from the University of Cambridge. Professor Andrea Nolan, the Principal of Edinburgh Napier University is the third panelist on Brexit: The Conversation. Nolan is a qualified veterinary surgeon and the Chair of the Scottish Higher Education Enhancement Committee. She will provide an insight as to how Brexit may students and what they can expect in the coming months and years as the result of Britain voting to leave the European Union. Students are encouraged to attend the event and get involved. Students can sign up for tickets or submit their own questions to the organisers who may give them to the Conversation’s panel of leading academic experts. The Conversation, the host of the event, is an independent journalism institution which provide news and views, primarily sourced from the academic community and produced to target both students and academics.

MOVE Systems: redesigning NYC's 1970s-era food trucks for an eco-friendly future. Making the less-noxious food cart into an art. There are 5,000 licensed food carts in New York, and they’re as much of an urban icon as the MTA’s subway signage or the Chrysler building. Too bad they’re killing the planet. It’s not the food—the grub is OK, if not exactly slimming; it’s the gas generators powering the carts. Most food carts run off a diesel generator that’s designed to run only a few hours. Vendors run them for stretches of up to 14 hours, leading to a high output of greenhouse-gas emissions such as carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide, and particulate matter. You can see the smoke with the naked eye, but the hard facts are even more frightening: The research and consulting firm Energy Vision found that each cart produces the same amount of nitrous oxide as 186 cars on the road. A new pilot program between the city and a Queens-based company called MOVE Systems aims to cut down on that pollution by at least 60 percent. For the past year, MOVE has been fine-tuning a new kind of food cart—called the MRV100—that’s powered by a mix of battery-generated electricity and solar energy, instead of dirty gas. The plan calls for getting a fleet of 500 new carts up and running by the summer of 2016, with the first 100 slated to roll out this summer. For a 40-or-so-year-old design, the typical food cart is actually pretty sturdy and resilient. “The quality is surprisingly good,” says Michael Dubrovsky, a co-founder of Simply Grid, which merged with Mobile Vending Natural Gas a year ago to form MOVE Systems. It’s good enough that MOVE initially planned to retrofit existing food carts with products akin to electric vehicle chargers, rather than manufacturing an entirely new line of carts. Then they took a closer look under the hood to discover that none of these carts has the same design. “Each one is made artisanally in Queens and Brooklyn, at what we call chop shops,” Dubrovsky says. “Each one has different compartments, the plumbing is not up to code, so by the time you rip all that out, all of a sudden you’ve put liability on yourself.” So MOVE had to scrap the magpie carts and start from scratch. One hundred of the first carts will be funded by MOVE and reserved for disabled veterans, and the remaining 400 will go to vendors who sign up—at no cost to them, because the pilot program will be sponsored. (MOVE says they are still reviewing sponsors and advertisers and have yet to make a selection.) Vendors will still have to shoulder the costs of the compressed natural gas fuel (but not Internet connectivity), but Energy Vision’s report also suggests that running a food cart on grid power could save $5,200 a year in energy charges.

In this coming week’s parasha, parashat Shemot, we learn of the oppression of the Israelites at the hands of the Egyptians, as well as the birth of Moses, and his emergence as a leader of Israel. In this parasha we are also introduced, albeit anonymously, to Moses’ family. In Exodus 2:1 we are told: “Va’yay’lech ish mee’bayt Lay’vee, va’yee’kach et bat Lay’vee,” a man went from the house of Levi and took the daughter of Levi. The woman conceived and gave birth to a son. She saw that the child was good, and hid him for three months. When she could no longer hide the child, she took a wicker basket, smeared it with clay and pitch, placed the child in the basket, and placed the basket with the child among the reeds at the bank of the river. The child’s sister (whose name we are not told) stood at a distance to see what would happen to him. The rest of the story is well known. Pharaoh’s daughter goes to bathe down by the river, finds the child, recognizes that it is a Jewish child, takes pity on him, and accepts his sister’s (Miriam) offer to find a Jewish nurse for the boy. Our commentators say that the anonymity in this portion comes to underscore that our leader and savior, Moses, came from a normal, mortal, flesh and blood father and mother. There is nothing supernatural about Moses, except that he goes on to become a person of great spirituality and stature. Moses’s sister, Miriam, is also a special person. She is one of the seven female prophets in the Bible, and plays a key role in the story of the Exodus. It is Miriam who leads the women in song after the crossing of the Red Sea (Exodus 15:21). In deference to Miriam’s kindness when she waited for the baby Moses, the nation waits seven days for Miriam when she is stricken with the disease tzoraat for speaking against her brother Moses (Numbers 12:15). After Miriam’s death, the people thirst for water (Numbers 20:1) alluding to the miraculous Midrashic “Well of Miriam” that followed the Israelites in the wilderness in Miriam’s merit. The rabbis of the Midrash, however, attribute to Miriam many additional accomplishments that are not found in the text. Building apparently on the young girl’s heroism that saved her brother’s life, they conclude that Miriam must have accomplished much more. The Midrash’s amplification of Miriam’s role is rather extensive. According to the Midrash, Amram, the son of Kehat, the son of Levi, was born in Egypt several years after Jacob arrived in Egypt amidst the 70 souls from Canaan. Amram was a prophet as well as the leader of his generation. In fact, the rabbis say that Amram was among the seven truly righteous people who are believed responsible for bringing G-d’s divine presence down from heaven to dwell on earth. Amram married his aunt, Yocheved, who was significantly older than he. According to the Midrash, Yocheved, the daughter of Levi, was born as the 70 people who accompanied Jacob to Egypt passed through the gates of the land. Tradition maintains that since since the Torah had not yet been given, and that Amram’s father and Yocheved were born of different mothers, Amram and Yocheved were allowed to marry. Although Yocheved was well-on in years, and Amram was himself no youngster, a daughter was born to them, who they named Miriam. Three years later, a son, named Aaron, was born. When Yocheved reached the ripe old age of 129, it was assumed that her childbearing days were over, but when little Miriam was only 5 ½ years old, the spirit of G-d rested on her. She prophesied that a son would be born to her mother and father who would lead the Jewish people out of Egypt. Soon after, Yocheved became pregnant with Moses. That very night, Pharaoh dreamt of a sheep giving birth to a little lamb. The little lamb was placed on one side of a scale that hung from heaven, and all the gold and silver of Egypt was placed on the other side of the scale. The lamb outweighed all the wealth! Then all the weapons of Egypt and more gold and silver were added, and still the little lamb outweighed everything. The next morning, Pharaoh invited all his magicians and sorcerers to interpret his dream. They told him that the little lamb represented a nation that dwelt in Egypt, and that the lamb would eventually destroy Egypt and capture all the surrounding lands. When Pharaoh asked if the child had already been born, he was told that the child’s mother had conceived that very night. “How will he die?” asked Pharaoh. “His death will be with water,” he was told (an allusion to Moses hitting the rock to bring forth water, Numbers 20:7-13). “What recourse do I have?” cried Pharaoh. The magicians and sorcerers advised Pharaoh to appoint officers to record every woman who was pregnant at that time, so that nine months from that date those newborn children could be thrown into the river. It was at that point that Pharaoh declared that every male child that is born shall be thrown into the river (Exodus 1:22). The officers fulfilled their duty faithfully, keeping careful account of all the pregnant women. After nine months, the Egyptian women came with their own babies to the homes of the Hebrew people. In response to the cries of the Egyptian babies, the Jewish babies began to cry as well, revealing their location, and were immediately thrown into the river. When Amram, who at that point had been appointed the head of the Jewish people (the Sanhedrin), gained knowledge of Pharaoh’s nefarious plans, he immediately separated from his wife. When his action became known, all the men of Israel followed suit and divorced their wives. Yocheved was then three months pregnant, but it was not yet apparent. When Amram heard this, he brought Miriam to the Sanhedrin, stood her before the tribunal, and reported her words to them. They said to Amram: You issued the prohibition against husbands and wives remaining together, it is your responsibility to rescind that prohibition. It was at that point that we read in our parasha that a man from the house of Levi went and took the daughter of Levi. Amram listened to Miriam’s words of rebuke and reunited with his wife. The debt of gratitude that we owe Miriam is very great. After all, if it weren’t for Miriam, there would be no Moses. If it weren’t for Miriam, there would be no Jewish marriages in Egypt. If it weren’t for Miriam, there would be no Hebrew nursemaid for Moses. If it weren’t for Miriam, there would be no redemption. If it weren’t for Miriam there would be no song for the women to sing at the crossing of the Red Sea. If it weren’t for Miriam, there would be no water for the people to drink in the wilderness. Perhaps what is most fascinating about this elaborate Midrash is the fact that these Midrashim were all written by rabbis thousands of years ago, long before “women’s liberation” became popular. Yet they portray the women of Israel, specifically Miriam and Yocheved, as great heroines, without whom there would be no redemption. “Biz’chut nah’shim tzid’kah’nee’ot …nig’ah’loo Yisrael mee’Mitzrayim” (Sotah 11a). In the merit of the righteous women, our ancestors were redeemed from Egypt. That is quite an amazing statement for some ancient rabbis to pronounce!

Pen and brown ink with (on recto only) brown wash; framing lines in pen and a darker brown ink (mostly trimmed away). Inscription Content: Inscribed in lower left, in pen and black ink, in Mariette's hand: "Joseph a le soin des prisonniers et les console" and in lower right: '171'; verso, in graphite: '8 [in a circle]' and '3'. Generally good, though perhaps slightly trimmed; a stain (perhaps oil) lower centre and another near top right corner. An 18th-19th-century copy of the drawing was brought to the British Museum's attention [by email on 24 November 2012, now in a private collection in Hobart] which is inscribed below 'Spencer Collection'. The present drawing does not, however, bear any of the Spencer collection's marks (see L.1530). Entry from Martin Royalton-Kisch, ‘Catalogue of drawings by Rembrandt and his school’, 2010, Willem Drost, cat. no.3. The subject is from 'Genesis', XL, 1-4: Joseph is imprisoned and charged with the care of Pharaoh's butler and baker who have also been confined. There he correctly interprets their dreams. The drawing appears to show Joseph listening to the baker describing his dream. The same subject appears in an anonymous pupil's version (Gg,2.249), and Rembrandt's drawing, cat. no.24 verso (Gg,2.248) represents the related scene of Joseph interpreting the dreams. The sheet resembles the many biblical drawings made by Rembrandt in the 1650s, with their somewhat geometrical and rectilinear approach to form. Yet comparisons with drawings now generally ascribed to Willem Drost, who adopted almost identical calligraphic formulae for his figures, suggest that the present work is by him. Characteristic of Drost rather than Rembrandt are the proliferation of parallel hatching of rather unvaried pressure, the limited range of facial expression and the unpersuasive spatial interrelationship of the figures: Joseph, for example, here seems nearer the spectator than the further prisoner, but stands beyond the stocks in which the latter is placed. Comparable works ascribed to Drost include the 'Triumph of Judith' and 'Rest on the Flight into Egypt' in the Museum's collection (Benesch nos.A93-94) and the 'David and Nathan' in Moscow (Benesch A98; Sumowski 547ax). The attribution to Drost suggests a date in the first half of the 1650s, either during or not long after his apprenticeship to Rembrandt which probably occurred in the years around 1650. The slight sketch of a head in profile on the verso, which was discovered when the drawing was lifted from its old mount in about 1960, is also Rembrandtesque and resembles his 'Five Sketches of Haman's Head' in the Rijksmuseum (Benesch 1005), which dates from about the same period, but the comparison again reveals differences with Rembrandt's own work. A copy of the recto was in the Novak collection in Prague. The disparities between these and Rembrandt's drawings become clearer when they are set alongside those of a comparable type that are accepted as the master's work in Amsterdam, 1985, nos.37-44, Rotterdam, 1988, nos.22, 32 and 33, and Exh. Paris, 1988-9, nos.50, 58 and 59. The comparisons made by Benesch (see Lit. below) include one with his no.1006 which closely resembles Drost's work; his other comparison, with his no.1003, is not persuasive. The Rijksmuseum's drawing is dated c.1657 by Schatborn in Amsterdam, 1985, no.47. The comparison was first made by White in c.1960 (notes in Museum files), who rediscovered the sketch on the verso.

Finished the run sequence that we received a RADF grant for. This work was a collaboration with the Ipswich Art Gallery where they have the 3 minute sequence from Wombok Forest , 13 large production stills, time lapse and a case with three puppets in an exhibition that runs through to May.. We finished this work on the 5th February. Feeling good and refreshed and back on focus. this last work we did above with the mirrors was very inspiring. We are ready to get back . Straight after finishing the run sequence, we did a series of workshops at the gallery. It was good working with school age children showing them and their teachers stop motion techniques and programs etc which excitingly enough most schools are now using as part of their curriculum. But it was exhausting for both for us and we were still wanting to get back to our animation. We had had the expaned shed space but had not had a chance to work in it yet so we pulled down the set we had built but had never shot in because we now had the room to build a bigger set. We now started to focus back and concentrate on Wombok Forest. We had started to cover the walls in black material and make new animating tables with trap doors when in late April we got a call from a director who asked us to do some special effects on a horror film and now with the extra rent of the new shed, telephone internet etc to keep finding the money for, we said yes. We thought we would make a fair bit of money with this job but as usual it ended up being one of those "no budget" things that you have to squeeze them for the money. So in this 8 week period we had to make a fake knife, bolt gun, smashable work light, fake hammer, fake head that gets smashed by the hammer, fake neck that gets slashed by the fake knife and litres and litres of fake blood which we pumped through an old fire extinguisher. Once again a huge job than took so much more time away from our film. We paid rent etc ahead and were just about to get back into things when we got a another call to ask us if we would do the TV pilot for the show we had originally done the Frilly Lizard Puppets for. We knew this was going to be a huge job for us. We thought the money would be enough for us to finish off the film. So we said yes. We had to completely gut our shed of the new tables and props etc and create a mock live tv studio situation in which we could have a band and commentator and an imaginary live audience. Once again we found ourselves in the never ending battle just to finish -[so we gave ourselves a time frame and with the money we earnt from this job we put towards a TRIP. We had been invited to Texas several times by our friend Moviestuff, so this time we booked our holdiday and found ourselves having to finish this project with the thought in mind of NEVER EVER doing any more big jobs til we finished Wombok. So on the 1st of October we ran away and visited Roger and his family in Utopia Texas. We then visited Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles. We had just the best time, everyone we met were just awesome and we loved just walking around the streets and seeing things we have never seen before. The train from Seattle to San Francisco was absolutely beautiful. We loved Seattle and want to go a live there. We loved Texas but can't explain exactly why. It could be the wide open spaces but we think it is like a land lost in time. We came back and were all ready to get back to building the last of two of the three major big sets and start back animating when we were told our lovely landlady had been dismissed of her position "and things were going to change around here" Automatically we though oh no here goes the caravan, rent will go up etc etc . We are still not sure what is happening BUT a good thing has come from this. With the thought of wanting to say no to any more big jobs and concentrate fully on Wombok - we have decided to give up the second shed we had spread in to. This extra shed which doubled our original 5mx7m shed plus an extra 5 mX5m of computer space had been costing us a lot more than we could really keep trying to find the money for. We are positive that this will be a good move and it feels good to make a decision finally. Right now this is where we are at waiting to hear what is happening with our shed and moving all of our stuff back into the one shed and the rest back home. We are enthused at the thought of becoming smaller again......weird hey!!!! but it is a very good feeling to know we are finally getting some control back. December saw us go what the hell lets just keep going so we got back into the animating and we are working well and continuing to make progress daily . Since our trip away it seems easier to make decisions and cutting back on everything also seems to be working really well for us. We are cutting down on everything, getting rid of the internet at the shed cutting down on the phone line. We have been selling a few things to get us a bit of cash (we spent everything on our trip) but it was so worth it. Maybe we were on the verge of burnout. Looking forward to the new year and continuing with the animation, this is probably as close as we hve been to how it used to be before we took on all those big jobs.

Cayston treats certain types of bacterial infections. Inform your doctor if you have any new diarrhea while receiving this medication. Cayston is a prescription medicine used to treat certain bacterial infections. Cayston is in a class of drugs called monobactam antibacterials. It interferes with the growth of bacterial cells and causes them to die. Cayston also comes in inhalational form. It is inhaled through the mouth into the lungs using a machine called an Altera Nebulizer. It is usually given three times a day for 28 days. Common side effects of Cayston inhalation include cough, wheezing, and sore throat. How was your experience with Cayston? What tips would you provide a friend before taking Cayston? What are you taking Cayston for? How well did Cayston work for you? How likely would you be to recommend Cayston to a friend? Cayston is used to treat patients above the age of 7 with cystic fibrosis (CF) who have a lung infection caused by the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It is common to feel better early in the course of therapy, but you should take all of your medication as prescribed. Skipping doses or not completing the full course of therapy may (1) decrease the effectiveness of the immediate treatment and (2) increase the likelihood that bacteria will develop resistance and will not be treatable by Cayston or other antibacterial drugs in the future. Trouble breathing right after treatment with Cayston (bronchospasm). To decrease the chance of this happening, be sure to use your inhaled bronchodilator medicine before each treatment with Cayston. Do not take Cayston if you are allergic to it or to any of its inactive ingredients. Tell your doctor if you are allergic to any other medications, especially antibiotics, before taking Cayston. There might be a small risk taking Cayston if you have had an allergic reaction to particularly an antibiotic in the past. Medicines can interact with certain foods. In some cases, this may be harmful and your doctor may advise you to avoid certain foods. In the case of Cayston there are no specific foods that you must exclude from your diet when receiving Cayston. This medication falls into category B. There are no well-done pregnancy studies that have been done in humans with Cayston. In animal studies, pregnant animals were given this medication, and the babies did not show any medical issues related to this medication. Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. The active ingredient in Cayston can pass into breast milk. Talk to your doctor about the best way to breastfeed your baby if you take Cayston. Take Cayston as prescribed, in courses of 28 days on Cayston , followed by at least 28 days off Cayston, as directed by your doctor. The dose of Cayston for both adults and children 7 years of age and older is one vial of Cayston (75 mg of Cayston), mixed with one ampule of saline (diluent) 3 times a day. If you take too much Cayston, call your doctor or local Poison Control Center, or seek emergency medical attention right away. Store Cayston and saline in the refrigerator at 36 °F to 46 °F (2 °C to 8 °C) until needed.

Voonik , an online fashion brand has deferred the payments for its 200 employees by 3 months. As reported by Money Control, Voonik’s CEO and Co-Founder Sujayath Ali said those who will quit the company will get a month’s salary as the severance package. He added the company “is currently one or two months away from EBITDA (earnings before, interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation) profitability. Pratik Vaidya, MD Karma Management added, “Very few organisation understand the value of human capital & asset rather than treating as Operating expense. Audited Companies that defer salary and other incentive payables & sheepishly roll back in future when their employee leave”. What impact would this have on HR compliances to be maintained in the company. How would the EPF contribution, ESIC if any, other Retirals and tax deduction be managed by the employer in such a situation?

What do we mean when teachers and speech pathologists classify words using capital letters like CVC? When teachers and other literacy specialists talk and write about reading, terms that are unfamiliar to most parents can find their way into the conversation. In this post I want to focus on the essentials and explain some of these key terms. What do these capitalised letters really mean? C stands for consonant and V stands for vowel. When literacy specialists talk about these arrangements of letters, we are talking about spelling and reading patterns. For example, in a CVC word like CAT we have a consonant followed by a vowel and then another consonant. When we talk about CCVC words we are talking about words like TRAP where we have two consonant sounds before the vowel. We can describe any word using initials like this and, in other blogs planned for next year, I will go into more detail. However, for this blog I am going to concentrate on those words that are considered to be closed syllables. These are the kinds of words beginning readers need to practise blending, and gain automaticity in decoding, before moving on to more complicated words with more varied vowel sounds. Here are some of the consonant vowel variations that can be found in closed syllables. What all of the combinations of letters in the words above have in common, is that they are all found in closed syllables. When we teach students to read using systematic and cumulative phonics, we begin with the fewest consonants in a cluster or blend and gradually add more as a reader gains automaticity and decoding speed. What is a closed syllable? A closed syllable is the most common syllable type in the English language. It is also important to note that in a closed syllable the vowel generally makes its short sound because it is protected by one or more consonants. What are short vowel sounds? Badly designed alphabet charts and alphabet picture books can confuse parents and teachers alike about the distinct sounds that letters make. As we are focusing on essentials here and the syllable type we are discussing is closed, let us also define the short vowel sounds. In a short vowel (sometimes also referred to as a weak vowel) the vowels usually make the following sounds. This may seem like too much information for an emergent reader but it is, in fact, incredibly liberating. Rather than memorising words as a whole, a reader may now use the six short vowel sounds, basic consonant sounds and taught consonant digraphs to decode any number of known and novel words. This is very empowering and is the base knowledge on which an emergent reader builds in order to become an independent reader. Why is a Systematic and Cumulative Structure Important for Teen and Adult Emergent Readers? The teen and adult emergent reader is a particularly vulnerable demographic. This group of learners is statistically more likely to have significant learning difficulties like dyslexia, dysgraphia, ADHD and ASD. For a variety of social and educational reasons they have also failed to acquire a level of functional literacy that will equip them for many of the challenges of adult life. In the publication, “Research-Based Principles for Adult Basic Education Reading Instruction” (2002) J Kruidenier notes that the adults with poor reading skills he studied often had large numbers of ‘sight’ words that masked underlying phonological and phonemic deficits. This suggests that these adult emergent readers had not received direct instruction in systematic and cumulative phonics whilst at school but had, perhaps, received more training in whole language memorisation techniques. It also suggests that these whole language techniques had not been effective in teaching the adult learners to read. The TAP novel series is designed to support readers like this. The series provides older emergent readers with age-appropriate texts designed around a systematic and cumulative underlying phonic structure. Level 2 of the TAP (Teen & Adult Phonics) novel series focuses on allowing an emergent reader to practise decoding consonant clusters with mostly short vowel sounds in closed syllables. (Level 2 also begins to introduce the single syllable, open syllable but these will be discussed in more detail in a future blog.) Whilst Level 3 will go on to introduce e-controlled long vowel sounds, at this stage a reader is encouraged to consolidate blending the basic alphabetic code until automaticity is gained and decoding becomes less effortful. Only when automaticity is gained at this level, is it time to introduce more complex reading code. I hope you’ve found this post useful. It is the first in a series of posts about cornerstone concepts in literacy and reading instruction. I encourage you to read the second post in the series about open syllables and their importance for emergent readers. (Greg has come up with a bunch of examples of multi-syllabic words containing open syllables in pop music lyrics.) The series continues with an explanation of blending and its importance in learning to read.

Africa has an acute shortage of world-class plant breeding specialists. At the moment, the continent has about 500 active breeders, which is about a tenth of the recommended number. Disproportionately, a majority of these specialists are men. This is despite the fact that women constitute the bulk of Africa’s agriculture labor force and the established wisdom of the higher returns on investing in women education and training. To address this twin challenge, AGRA has invested over US$4m in the last 10 years to train plant breeders for the East and Southern Africa region through this programme implemented in partnership with the Africa Center for Crop Improvement (ACCI). This investment aims to tap the passion, will and commitment of students who believe that Africa’s weather, good soils, and human resource are sufficient to cater for the continent’s food needs. Dr. Mamadou Mory Coulibaly works at the ‘Institut d’Economie Rurale’ (IER). Mory was funded by AGRA for his PhD at WACCI and is the first maize PhD trained breeder for Mali. He popularised a maize hybrid called Tieba which was entirely bred in Mali that is early maturing (100-105 days), high yielding (7-8 t/ha), drought tolerant and adapted to growing conditions in the country. Dr. Aissata Mamadou Ibrahim, is the first female graduate of WACCI and the first female PhD plant breeder in her native country Niger. Aissata was funded by AGRA for her PhD from which she graduated in July 2012.

There are as I am sure you have seen a bunch of spy tools that you can use Whatrunswhere, Mobile ad scout, Adplexity, the list is pretty comprehensive. I decided last week in an effort to see if they really do what they say on the tin, to test out a tool and see if it can deliver a campaign that generates a positive ROI. The tool that I chose to test out is called AdsXposed. So here is my AdsXposed review.

Harbin Highbird Foreign Language School is located in the center of Harbin, a city with beautiful scenery all year round. Harbin’s Winter Snow Festival is also world-renown. Harbin Highbird Foreign Language School was established in 2013,which is a professional English training school with seven foreign teachers , and the foreign teachers’ nationalities include British, American, and Canadian. Some foreign teachers have been working at Highbird for 10 years. Working hours: about 25 hours , usually 2 days’ off a week;during winter and summer vacation :one day off a week. The office working hour: don’t need to come to the office,if you don’t have classes. The reward for foreign teacher agency of each foreign teacher is 6000-7000 yuan, and it will be paid 10days after the foreign teachers come to work. If the foreign teacher leaves within three months due to his/her personal reasons, or some reasons of the foreign teacher agency , the agency should change one for free.

President Trump’s decision Monday to revive plans to freeze federal employee pay in 2020 and to institute a series of cuts to federal employee retirement programs was met with great consternation from stakeholder groups, although the ideas stand little chance of becoming law. Increasing employee contributions toward federal defined benefit annuity programs by 1 percent per year until those payments reach 50 percent of the total cost. Eliminating cost of living adjustments for FERS retirees, and reducing CSRS cost of living adjustments by 0.5 percent. Eliminating the FERS supplement for employees forced to retire before Social Security kicks in at age 62. Changing annuity calculations for federal workers' retirement to be based on the average of their highest five years of salary, rather than the current highest three years. Reducing the interest rate of the Thrift Savings Plan’s government securities (G) fund, basing it on the yield of either the three-month or four-week U.S. Treasury bill, rather than a weighted average of all Treasury investments. The administration will not reveal the precise details of these proposals until next week. But each idea has been floated in some form in both 2017 and 2018, and Congress has not implemented any. The likelihood of any of these proposals being included in a final appropriations bill seems even slimmer now, with Democrats now in control of the House. Management groups also criticized the White House’s approach to federal employee compensation. Although the Senior Executives Association was less overtly critical in its reaction, SEA President Bill Valdez said that the more positive elements of the fiscal roadmap would be undermined in practice by the decision to disinvest in the workforce. “Even as the budget proposal suggests that our national and homeland security requires additional staffing in the military and along our borders, the budget reiterates penny-wise and pound-foolish proposals to enact federal pay freezes and benefit and retirement cuts, thus implicitly assuring applicants interested in those posts that working for the federal government would mean enduring instability and ceaseless attacks surrounding even their most basic compensation,” Valdez said.

It's the perfect time to eat out! So many restaurants are offering great deals and you get to enjoy their dishes at more affordable prices. P. F. Chang's has over 200 international branches and has been around since 1993. They opened their first branch in Asia in January 2012, at Alabang Town Center. We've always shied away from the place. With its grand looking ambience, mixed with replica statues of Chinese warriors, horses and murals depicting scenes of 12th century China, we assumed that the food would be expensive. So, when we came across this poster recently, I made a mental note to include it on our must try list. After Sunday mass, our agenda is usually either one of two things- lunch with family in Quezon City or lunch or dinner out with my daughter and sister in the Makati or Alabang area. With the unpredictable weather we've been having so far, we decided to stay closer to home after mass last Sunday for fear of getting stuck in traffic or flash floods. P. F. Chang's Feast for Four Promo is available Mondays to Sundays for both lunch and dinner until August 31. You get to choose two entrees, plus you get soup, rice and drinks so we thought this was a good deal. It being our first time, we asked our server to recommend their bestsellers. Here's what we had. Crispy Honey Chicken- lightly battered and served in a sweet sauce over a bed of crispy rice sticks. This package comes with Egg Drop Soup, rice and drinks. We had high expectations. Service was good, but the food was nothing out of the ordinary. We've had better Chinese fare elsewhere. Maybe, if we do get the chance to visit again, we'll try something out from their regular menu.

CHARLOTTE (AP) � Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks defense were too much for Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers to overcome. Wilson threw a 13-yard touchdown pass to Golden Tate with 35 seconds left in the third quarter to help the Seahawks beat the Panthers 16-12 on Sunday. CHARLOTTE (AP) � Bruce Irvin raced by an offensive lineman and chopped down on Cam Newton�s arm as the quarterback loaded up to throw downfield. The ball popped free and into the hands of a teammate, capping the latest strong performance by a Seattle Seahawks defense that made life miserable for Newton and the Carolina Panthers. Rookie quarterback Russell Wilson threw a 13-yard touchdown pass to Golden Tate with 35 seconds left in the third quarter, while the defense kept the Panthers� offense out of the end zone in a 16-12 win Sunday. Wilson shook off two third-quarter interceptions � including one returned for a touchdown � and outperformed Newton on a struggle-filled day for the Carolina offense, which finished with only 190 yards. That included forcing Newton into an incompletion on a fourth-and-goal from the 1 with 3:47 left. �It wasn�t easy; it might have looked like it was, but it wasn�t easy because of all the stuff they do,� Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said. �And they tried all their options and stuff, and we were able to stay in sync with it, so it�s a fantastic job defensively. Wilson threw for 221 yards, while Marshawn Lynch ran for 85 yards for the Seahawks (3-2) in their first road win. Newton threw for a career-low 141 yards on 12-for-29 passing and he was sacked four times. He also ran for 42 yards. �When you know what guys are doing and you still can�t beat them, they�re just good at what they do,� said Newton, last year�s No. 1 overall draft pick . The Panthers� only touchdown came on Captain Munnerlyn�s 33-yard interception return early in the third quarter. Carolina started the season with plenty of optimism with the return of Newton to lead a high-scoring offense, but the Panthers (1-4) couldn�t rebound a week after losing 30-28 to the Falcons on Matt Bryant�s field goal with 5 seconds left. The offense never found a rhythm while Newton was frequently off target, completing just 3 of 15 passes for 40 yards in the first half. Carolina had two chances to take the lead in the final minutes Sunday only to come away empty each time. After driving the Panthers to the 1 for the fourth down play, Newton rolled to his right and spotted Ben Hartsock open in the end zone, but he threw a one-hopper on the short pass. Then, after the Seahawks took an intentional safety, Carolina got the ball back at its own 31 with 54 seconds left and no timeouts. That�s when Irvin, a rookie, stripped Newton for his second sack. Defensive tackle Alan Branch fell on the loose ball to seal the win. The game marked a homecoming of sorts for Wilson, who first gained acclaim as a quarterback at North Carolina State. He also played minor league baseball in Asheville and Gastonia before returning to college football and finishing up at Wisconsin. The rookie hadn�t thrown for more than 160 yards in a game until Sunday, but didn�t panic when he threw the two interceptions and bought time with his mobility on several plays. After Brandon Browner ripped the ball away from DeAngelo Williams and recovered the fumble to give Seattle a short field, Wilson moved the Seahawks to the Carolina 13 then found Tate over the middle. Tate spun off a hit from Thomas Davis around the 4 and into the end zone for the 13-10 lead. Steven Hauschka added his third field goal to make it 16-10 with about 10� minutes left. Notes: The Panthers played without three starters; cornerback Chris Gamble, linebacker Jon Beason and offensive lineman due to injuries. ... Newton targeted receiver Steve Smith a season-high 13 times. The previous high was 11 in the opener at Tampa Bay. ... Seattle tight end Zach Miller had three catches for a season-high 59 yards, including a season-long 30-yard catch. ... Seattle�s Sidney Rice had five catches for 67 yards.

Anhui KOYO Beverage Machinery co.,Ltd，our main products are KOYO Liquid Packer Machine,KOYO Sachet water produce line,Reverse Osmosis Ssytem,bottle water produce line,KOYO Pure Water Treatment with RO system,bottle water production line,pure water produce line and another beverage equipment. Drinking water is one of the most basic needs of every living being. But have you ever thought, with the level of rising pollution, the water we get is something that we can consume directly? Just for the record, over five years to 2017, water-borne diseases, such as cholera, diarrhoea, typhoid and viral hepatitis caused 10,738 deaths, revealed a latest government data. The Raskob grant helped RO Water Treatment Machine for the World reach four more rural communities in Honduras where, in addition to clean water, nearly 150 families got pit latrines. It’s all part of the nonprofit agency’s water, sanitation and hygiene program to promote health and better lives for people in some of the poorest communities in Honduras and Haiti. In addition, these facilities are important to the work of the Catholic Church. She referred to a seminarian in Trojes who said lack of basic services like clean water and sanitation affects church outreach. If priests, seminarians and catechists get sick, “this causes delays in preaching the word of God to families,” he told her. Pure water equipment with RO system for the World teaches people in the areas they serve to be “community agents” and educate their neighbors about the water filters and latrines. This fosters community development, and “it is important to have reliable resources to build up their reliance on each other and strengthen their community,” said Brother Richard Iaquinto, Weston’s prior.

Insurance and Assurance sounding similar; the words insurance and Assurance are commonly used by companies selling financial products. The two terms Insurance and Assurance are very confusing in financial world. When it comes to choosing financial products from insurance companies to safeguard interests of a person or an object, many companies prefer to use the word assurance as against insurance used by others. The person concerned is more interested in knowing the details of the policy rather than terminology, and hence it doesn’t really matter whether the policy refers to itself as assurance or insurance. These terms are irrelevant if the cover is right for the person or the object. If we look up in a dictionary, the word Insurance refers to means of guaranteeing protection of an object or a person, or a guarantee against loss or damage. People getting this insurance or protection have to pay premiums or instalments monthly or yearly to the company which undertakes to pay in the event of loss or damage or death. There are various types of insurance products available in the market such as health insurance, life insurance, home insurance etc. In fact, companies have been insuring everything under the sun these days, even body parts such as breasts, legs, denture and voice are being insured. In life insurance alone, there are policies that provide cover only and the family of the person receive the amount in the event of death of the person and nothing if he survives the period of the policy. But majority of people go for insurance policies of limited time period where they receive the amount proposed along with bonus that has accrued at the end of the term of the policy. Assurance, according to dictionary means making someone feel comfortable with a decision and clearing his doubts. If you are assuring someone, you are instilling confidence in him. When a person takes life assurance policy, he gets a cover for his entire life, no matter when his life ends. Every premium that he pays to the company adds to the value of the policy, ands when this added up value equals the death benefit that the person has been assured, the policy is said to have matured. In life assurance, a person can choose to cash out his policy anytime he so desires. Both insurance and assurance are financial products offered by companies operating commercially but of late the distinction between the two has increasingly become blurred and the two are taken to be somewhat similar. However, there are subtle differences between the two which are as follows. Insurance policy refers to protection against an event that might happen whereas assurance policy refers to protection against an event that will happen. This means that insurance policy is taken to prevent a risk or provide cover against a risk while assurance policy is taken against an event that is definite. Assurance policies are undertaken by people knowing that their death is certain. They keep on paying premiums knowing that their heirs will receive a big amount whenever they die. Company issuing assurance policy is assured of the death of the person and also that it has to pay the amount whenever the person dies. Because of this assurance factor, such a policy is called assurance policy. In case of insurance policy, the company pays the amount to the dependants of the person if all the premiums have been paid on time and the person dies within the duration of the policy. In most of the cases, the person does not die within the term of the policy, hence it is called life insurance. In life insurance, the dependants receive the policy if all premiums paid on time and the person dies within the duration of policy. In life assurance, a person can choose to cash out his policy anytime he so desires. Thank you. The article is an eye opener!

Just got back from Greenbelt – ostensibly a Christian Arts festival, but with a strong focus on justice issues, and some seriously great music and seminar speakers. We arrived Friday afternoon, pitched our tent (oh yes, proper camping), and went to watch Eden Burning (reunion gig – their final gig was infront of 10,000 people at Greenbelt 97, and they reformed for a one off this weekend to celebrate this being the 30th year of Greenbelt), then saw Pierce Pettis, Iain Archer, Juliet Turner, Boo Hewerdine with Rob Jackson, Kate Rusby and Old Solar – all marvellous, and a great start to the weekend, in fact, too much great stuff to take it all in, and I missed a lot of artists that I’d have to catch in other venues over the weekend. Watching that many amazing gigs in one evening does make you a bit blase about the genius on offer, but any one of the acts listed about would be worth driving 50 miles to see on an ordinary evening – Pierce I’ve seen lots of times before, and played with in Reading earlier this year, Iain Archer has been getting better and better over the decade that I’ve been watching him play (new album out in a few months, which promises to be a blinder), Juliet is another singer I’ve been familiar with for a long time and have got both her albums, Boo Hewerdine I was more familar with as a songwriter than a singer, but he was marvellous and Rob Jackson who was guesting on guitar is a solo looper that I’d had contact with before, and showed himself to be equally adept providing gorgeous pedal steel-esque guitar parts to Boo’s finely crafted songs. Old Solar are old faves, and old friends, and played a very fine set. after Dave, it was off to a Mike Riddell seminar – Mike’s an author from New Zealand, and another Greenbelt fave, talking about artistic integrity and freedom – nothing new but very encouraging and helpful nonetheless. Next up, Martyn Joseph’s songwriter’s circle event, The Rising – lots of great songwriters playing their songs and discussing them. What a treat to see MJ, Juliet Turner, Pierce Pettis and Brian Houston talking about their songs and playing together. Amazing stuff. Other gigs – Elan (very good), Juliet Turner and Pierce Pettis (genius, obviously), Cleveland Watkiss (with Orphy Robinson on Vibes) – outstanding, joint best gig of the weekend, Calamatuer (marvellous) and Denison Witmer (another new discovery for me this weekend – fantastic singer/songwriter from Philadelphia). But as always, Greenbelt is about people – meeting up with loads – hundreds – of friends, meeting loads of people I deeply admire, amazing musicians, great speakers, writers, actors, and just really nice people that I aspire to be like. Spent lots of time between gigs drinking apple tea in the tiny tea tent and enjoying the gorgeous weather. ..and tomorrow I’ll tell you about Sunday and Monday! Soundtrack – right now, the first mixes of the tracks I recorded with the quartet on my most recent trip to France – more on that when I’ve heard them some more. Before that, Denison Witmer, ‘Recovered’ and Jaco Pastorius, ‘Jaco Pastorius’.

Splurge on airfare, jeans, and pizza; hold back on cookware. As the height of summer travel passes, domestic airfare tends to drop. Expect prices to bottom out in October, say experts at Hopper, an airfare booking and analytics application. “With domestic round-trip airfare declining to $217 this [August], we’re forecasting that airfare will fall a further 8.2 percent to reach an autumn low of $213 in October,” Patrick Surry, chief data scientist at Hopper, wrote in a post. Nicole Fornabaio/Rd.com, iStock/Digital Paws Inc. While you’ll obviously want to purchase your Halloween costume and candy for trick-or-treaters at some point in October, merchandising experts say the best time to shop is in the week before Halloween, when stores are anxious to get rid of their seasonal inventory. But beware: This could lead to scarily long lines and limited supplies. Try these non-candy Halloween treats for trick-or-treaters. Seasonal fruits and veggies taste best and are inexpensive (because the stockpiles are plentiful). A few of our favorites include apples, blackberries, broccoli, corn, eggplant, kale, melon, peaches, pears, pumpkins, raspberries, sweet potatoes, watermelon and winter squash. Who knew? October is National Pizza Month. Look for promotional deals and coupons at both hometown pizzerias and national chains. It’s the most economically friendly time of year to indulge! Here are the 13 things your pizza guy won’t tell you. Come the end of the summer season, most nurseries will be itching to get rid of their stock. Pick up a few flowers you can plant now and enjoy come spring: bulbs like lily, hyacinth, and iris, and perennial such as mums, aster, and primrose will all yield colorful results. These are the cut flowers that last the longest. You won’t get to enjoy these right away, but summer gear like camping supplies, bicycles, and specialty sporting goods go on sale in October. Some camping gear can be discounted as much as 30 to 50 percent, Howard Schaffer told Consumer Reports. Baseball and golf items can go down as much as 50 to 60 percent. After the post-back-to-school season sales end in September, you can expect to see even deeper discounts on denim. “Especially during fall seasons when denim is not expected to be a big part of fashion trends,” writes Time. Beware these common denim mistakes. “The best time to buy most major household appliances is September and October, when new models hit stores and older models need to be cleared out to make room, Regina Novickis, consumer expert with Slickdeals.net, a Web site that rates deals and coupons, told Kiplinger. Expect discounts of 20 percent on dishwashers, stoves, and washer/dryer sets. The best month for purchasing winter jackets, scarves, and gloves is February, but October is a solid contender (and a bit more practical). You’re better off buying in October than November. You’ll kick yourself on this one when prices drop again in November, the best month to buy cookware. According to Deal News, cookware tends to be about 25 percent cheaper in November. With all the hype around the iPhone 7, everyone’s got Apple on their mind. But based off Apple sale trends, experts say the best time to buy these products is Black Friday. If you can hold out until November, expect the iPhone 7 to hover around $549, or $99 down, and 11-inch MacBook Airs to run around $700. And don’t go to the Apple store to snag these discounts; Apple reseller stores like Best Buy, Target, and Walmart offer far better sale prices, say experts at DealNews.

The manor house on Leeu Estates sits ringed by the valley’s majestic mountains. The food and wine capital of South Africa is a small village in the Western Cape, one of the country’s oldest colonial settlements. Quietly burrowed in a lush, transcendent valley more than 70 kilometers east of Cape Town and about 40 more kilometers past its larger and more well-known sibling, Stellenbosch, Franschhoek boasts a population of about 15,000; 50 wine producers, most with adjoining eateries and many with spas; and one of the “Top 50” restaurants in the world, according to the definitive S. Pellegrino list, along with a number of South Africa’s “Top 100” restaurants. Founded in 1688 by French Huguenots who got the land from the occupying Dutch government, Franschhoek is Dutch for “French Corner.” Today, it retains a blend of the two nationalities, as the well-kept Cape Dutch farmhouses combine seamlessly with French topiary practices and of course wine. South Africa’s disturbing past and difficult present feel a world away from this bubble of rustic opulence. At its best, Franschhoek celebrates South Africa’s bounty, bringing visitors a feeling of excitement for what these gifts — extraordinary wildlife, a buzzing and young class contributing to its dining and arts scenes, and a tangible national pride that spans skin colors — could mean for the country’s future. Franschhoek celebrates South Africa’s bounty, from its lush lavender fields to its countless acclaimed vineyards. Breakfast at Leeu Estates, a young boutique hotel, spa and restaurant just outside of the main town, is a singular experience. The fresh juices, thick yogurt with homemade granola, and flaky pastries are all finely made enough to make the experience in itself, but leave room for the a la carte menu. Offerings like chickpea rosti with foraged mushrooms, buck rarebit, spicy pork hash with black pudding, and blueberry flapjacks with Canadian maple syrup will put you in the right mental space for what the day will bring: a full-on sensory overload. Leeu Estates — a young boutique hotel, spa and restaurant — represents one of the Western Cape region’s premier destinations. While hiring a car is certainly an option, pre-arranging rides via wineries and hotels or calling taxis is easy in Franschhoek, and allows for more freedom if you’re planning on sampling the area’s delicious vino. The Mont Rochelle Nature Reserve is a 15-minute drive from Leeu Estates. Work off your breakfast and get your blood pumping for a wine tasting at the UNESCO-declared Cape Winelands Biosphere Reserve, situated in the Franschhoek Mountains and offering majestic views of the Franschhoek Valley. For those wanting a quick scramble, the Breakfast Rock Hiking Trail starts and ends at the main entry gate, and is also the route used to continue on to more ambitious options. The walk is just two kilometers round trip, and still peaks with sweeping vistas. Folks interested in carrying on for another two to four hours can take the Uitkyk Hiking Trail, which follows the westerly valley slope of the Perdekloof stream, whose waters are clean, delicious and refreshing. The Utikyk climaxes with a magnificent panoramic view of the secluded Wemmershoek Valley and Wemmershoek Dam. Back at Leeu Estates, shower off quickly and arrange a visit for a tasting at its wine studio, a modern, intimate room decorated in burnt orange and brown. A partnership between the Leeu Collection and the Mullineux family (helmed by South African and San Franciscan winemakers, respectively), the wines are scrumptious; in fact, Andrea Mullineux was named “winemaker of the year” by Wine Enthusiast magazine in 2016. Experienced staff members from South Africa and Zimbabwe guide the experience, which can range from casual to formal depending on your mood and interest in detail. Franschhoek’s Huguenot Memorial to religious freedom was completed in 1945. Leeu offers a complimentary shuttle transport to town, and to Le Petit Ferme, which is a steep two-kilometer drive up the hill past Huguenot Road. The quaint luxury hotel has a winery and a well-received restaurant. It’s worth going in the afternoon — if not for lunch, then at least for a wine tasting or their delicious dessert. Think honeycomb mousse with pumpkin icing, brandy and dark chocolate. Huguenot Road runs through the twee town center, starting at the Huguenot Monument to religious freedom and running down past the Holden Manz contemporary art gallery. Further down sit jewelry shops, smaller galleries and other curio stops for browsing. If you haven’t already had a bite at La Petit Ferme, plenty of options abound here: Tuk Tuk is the only brewery in town and offers tasty Mexican-inspired pub food. The French Connection for French, Dutch East for Scandinavian/South African, and Marigold for Indian are other local favorites. The Austro Daimlers, Bugattis, Chevrons and Mercedes Roadsters at the Motor Museum on the extensive L’Ormarins Farm will titillate different senses. The collection, owned by the late South African billionaire businessman Anthonij Rupert, also includes Nelson Mandela’s armored BMW, the first Ford imported into South Africa, and the first South African–built Protea — making it surely one of the most impressive collections of its kind on the planet. The Motor Museum is also part of the Anthonij Rupert Wyne Estate, where you could easily spend a day or longer. The 700-hectare property produces wine for five house brands and boasts trams that guide visitors from the various tasting rooms to the Italian eatery and throughout the massive estate, which despite its size feels small against the jagged peaks of the Groot Drakenstein Mountains. The elegant yet rustic bar at Le Quartier Français, a boutique hotel surrounded by gardens and mountain views. Before dinner, grab a cocktail at Le Quartier Français on Huguenot Road. With amaretto, sauvignon blanc, passion fruit, grape and mint, the Cape Wine Grape is a must-try refreshment as you settle into the night. End your day in grand style with dinner at La Residence, a five-minute drive but a world away from any other place on earth. Don’t let the TV team on site covering “the world’s most amazing hotels” distract you from embracing the sparkling wine and sizzling fire upon arrival. If you get too comfortable, the staff will lay out your meal at the generous hearth, but otherwise, graduate to the dining room and enjoy the offerings from the ever-changing seasonal menu in baronial splendor. The palatial farmhouse aesthetic, dotted with modern oil paintings, recently won the hotel a listing as one of the world’s best in Travel and Leisure magazine, and is the most outright encapsulation of the sublime on offer in this valley. Amanda Sperber is a foreign correspondent based between New York, Nairobi and Mogadishu. After four years traveling the continent, this was her first trip to South Africa, a country she’d much anticipated meeting. It did not disappoint.

The sea temperature charts show sea surface temperature anomalies for both the Australian region and the entire world. That is, it shows how far above or below average the sea surface temperatures are at any location. Areas of above average sea surface temperatures generally favour increased evaporation and hence higher rainfall, if a trigger is in place. Areas of below average sea surface temperatures are generally associated with lower than normal rainfall. The Sea Surface Temperature Anomaly (SSTA) map shows the difference between observed SSTs and long-term average SSTs for that time of year. The data displayed is the weekly average, centred on the date shown in the heading. Positive SSTAs (towards the red end of the spectrum) are usually correlated with increased regions of convection (conducive to cloudiness and rainfall), while negative SSTAs (at the blue end of the spectrum) are usually associated with reduced convection and clearer skies. SSTAs can be used as an indicator of the phase of global climate fluctuations, such as the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO). For example, prolonged positive SSTAs observed off the eastern coast of the South Pacific can indicate the atmosphere is experiencing an El Niño episode. The Sea Surface Temperature (SST) map displays weekly average SSTs centred on the date shown in the heading. Surface ocean temperatures vary much slower than atmospheric temperatures due to the higher heat capacity of water (i.e. the oceans require a greater amount of energy to be heated compared with the atmosphere). As such, SSTs generally lag atmospheric temperatures on a seasonal timescale by about 3 months. The lowest SSTs are usually observed in early Spring, and the highest in early Autumn. In tropical regions, SSTs greater than 26.5°C are considered suitable for the formation of tropical cyclones.

Do You Ditch Dairy Unnecessarily? If you are lactose intolerant, have milk allergies, or just do not like the taste of milk, stop reading here. You can go into the Cybex Fitness Blog Archives and read up on the pros and cons of various non-dairy alternative beverages I highlighted last month. If, like me, you love yogurt, milk, cheese, ice cream, sour cream and butter, read on and relish knowing you are nourishing your body and spirit—provided the dairy product you are consuming is organic. My ancestral background is agricultural and many of my relatives relied heavily on dairy cows for their sustenance. Longevity also runs in my family—I have multiple relatives who lived beyond age 105; therefore, I see no reason to stop my frequent consumption of milk, yogurt, and unprocessed cheeses. I feel many of the concerns raised about dairy today are due to how milk is currently produced—especially non-organic dairy. Factory farms feed cows corn, rather than their naturally preferred grasses. Cows are confined in cramped stalls in unsanitary conditions, and are pumped up with hormones and antibiotics to combat illness and mature quickly. This kind of treatment does not produce the life-supporting nectar I (and my ancestors) grew up drinking. When cows are allowed to roam freely in pastures, eat grass, and not ingest growth hormones and antibiotics, the milk and dairy products produced are nutrient rich. Calcium: Milk is the best source of calcium supply to our body. Calcium protects the body from major chronic ailments such as cancerous chemicals, bone loss, arthritic condition and migraine headaches, and aids in losing unwanted fats. Healthy Bones: As mentioned above, milk is rich in calcium, which is essential for growth and proper development of strong bone structure. Bone disorders such as osteoporosis can be prevented with daily intake of an adequate quantity of milk. Children deprived of cow milk have an increased chance of bone fractures when injured. Healthy Teeth: Milk protects the enamel surface of teeth against acidic substances. Drinking milk for energy and health might dissuade children from consuming soft drinks, thus reducing the risk of decayed teeth and weak gums. Skin Care: Cleopatra used to have a milk bath daily! She would mix honey and milk and take a bath daily, enabling her to maintain soft and beautiful skin. Milk and milk products are used in a number of cosmetic preparations for dry skin. If you have dry skin, apply milk on your face (and other body parts), leave it for about 15 minutes and then wash it. The milk solids nourish and smooth your skin. The lactic acid present in milk is known to aid in removing the dead skin cells, thereby gently exfoliating your skin. Improving Diet and Vitamin Intake: Milk contains vitamins and minerals to keep you fit, healthy and strong. A glassful of milk contains vitamins A and B for good eyesight and increasing red blood cell count, carbohydrates for vitality and energy, potassium for proper nerve function, magnesium for muscular function, phosphorous for energy release, and bio-available protein for body repair and growth. Finally, a glass of warm milk (or hot chocolate!) or some yogurt before bedtime really does promote a sense of serenity and wellbeing, allowing one to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep.

A reflective learning log is a record of your learning experiences written in a reflective writing style. When writing a reflective log, focus is on the learning process as well as the subject material. By reflecting on the experience itself including your reactions, feelings and thoughts at the time you can gain a better understanding of what happened and why. Reflective logs and reflective journals for students may cover an extended period of time. Depending on your course and instructor you may be asked to submit your reflective log for review from time to time. Whether you need reflective journals for teachers or nursing students, we are ready to help you! Another possibility is that you will be asked to write a reflective log essay based on your reflective log. Such an essay would also involve reflection writing but of several event/experiences rather than one only. Reflective journaling is an effective tool for learning, but if you aren’t familiar with how to write reflectively it may take some time to get used to it. Describe what happened as briefly and objectively as possible. Avoid writing a long narrative and focus on the analysis. The basic structure of the reflective log entries should follow description, interpretation, outcome. One of the keys to reflective logs is the progression it shows you made over a period of time. Show a connection between theoretical knowledge and practical based work: Identify connections and discuss how your practical work relates to theories in your field. There are sources that can make your log writing experience easier, such as reflective writing guide and another example of really great reflective log. Here is the helpful video that will help you understand the concept. Entries review. When starting out set a schedule for writing reflective log entries until you become more familiar with the process and it comes more naturally. Go back and review older entries in your reflective log from time to time. Further reflection may provide more insights. Reflective writing means reflect. Your journal shouldn’t just convey information or a description of what happened. The whole purpose is to reflect on experiences you have had. Use full sentences and complete paragraphs. Keep the length appropriate or concise and use these tips to help you write reflective log assignments. If you run into problems writing your reflective log or with any other reflective writing assignment our service can help. Experience reflection.

The purpose of our research is to understand how human energy metabolism and physical activity are regulated, and how they impact diseases such as obesity. My laboratory focuses on human energy metabolism as it relates to health and disease. We have developed advanced techniques such as the whole-room indirect calorimeters (also called respiration or metabolic chambers) that we use to measure the rate of energy expenditure at the minute-by-minute level and substrate oxidation for several hours or for several days. We can also simultaneously measure movement and physiological parameters in this well-controlled environment to study the impacts of physical activities, diets, medications, and environmental temperatures on energy metabolism, heart rate, and hormonal responses. Currently, my laboratory focuses on the cold-induced thermogenesis, brown adipose tissue, muscle and autonomic nervous system activities, and body and skin temperature in response to subtle changes in environmental temperature in different populations. Another area of interest is the effect of pharmacological and dietary interventions on human energy metabolism and obesity. We are also developing new technologies for measuring energy metabolism, body composition, sleep, and physical activity in humans. The obesity epidemic has increased the general interests in metabolism, physical activity, sleep, and diet. By studying both normal healthy volunteers, subjects who are obese, and patients who have metabolic conditions, we can better understand how energy balance is regulated. This may lead to better treatment and prevention strategies. The dynamic responses of energy metabolism under different stimuli are not well understood.
