", "He was in fact Head Gardener at Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s River Cottage. (", "You did not really think Hugh did his own gardening, did you?)", "\n\nDiacono is really more of an experimental gardener/environmental consultant, which of course is fair enough.", "\n\nSo how did those olive trees turn out?", "\n\nUnfortunately, according to the Independent, they all died out in the winter of 2009/10. ", "Undaunted however, Diacono planted some more of a different variety that summer.", "\n\nSadly, these don’t appear to have fared any better. ", "Rick Stein reported a few years ago that no olive oil was commercially available from Diacono’s Otter Farm.", "\n\nAnd Otter Farm have confirmed to me today that the olive trees have now been removed from the farm.", "\n\nIn fact, according to Caradoc Doy, the Devon based horticulturist, olive trees are not new to Britain. ", "The oldest is over 100 years old and fruits in decent summers.", "\n\nAs he explains:\n\nYou can expect flowers in the early summer which will develop fruit, but do not expect the fruit to ripen. ", "Even in hot Mediterranean climates the fruit are not harvested until November or later. ", "The summer of 2006 was hot enough for fruit to develop on some of my trees. ", "Sadly, we still need much more sunshine in Britain before a regular harvest makes it anywhere near the kitchen!", "\n\nFull article\n\nAletho News Original Content\n\n\n\nBy Aletho News | January 9, 2012\n\nThis article will examine some of the connections between the US and UK National Security apparatus and the appearance of the anthropogenic global warming (AGW) theory beginning after the accident at Three Mile Island. … ", "continue\n\nMore articles\n\nBlog Roll\n\n" ]

[ "Passive investing is not as great as it's made out to be\n\nIf the passive management crowd is to be believed, actual stock picking will soon be an anachronism that belongs alongside age-betraying habits such as hard candy and AOL email accounts. ", "Active funds, their narrative goes, have collectively underperformed the US stock market since 2008, making cheap index investing and “Smart Beta”\nthe default option for investors seeking exposure anywhere but purely niche markets. ", "What this account conveniently ignores, beyond the fact that actively managed strategies can hardly be categorized in one all-inclusive bucket, is that both index investing and stock picking are generally considered to be highly cyclical. ", "In fact, both investment philosophies have enjoyed multiple and sustained periods of outperformance over the past 30 years.", "\nPassive strategies have historically done best during speculative bull markets or in the final stages of extended bear markets, when there are typically fewer and smaller price movements for active managers to capitalise on. ", "Active strategies, in contrast, perform best when corporate fundamentals are driving returns, especially when bear markets begin or when bull markets resume. ", "It’s worth noting, too, that the latter scenario also favours value over growth for those keen on differentiating between disparate segments within active strategies.", "\n\nTo be sure, though, it’s unrealistic to expect managers to outperform their benchmarks every year, or avoid any periods of underperformance when the underlying investment theses require time to materialise. ", "Active managers would naturally struggle to outperform in a bull market during which S&P 500 has largely trended upwards in a straight line. ", "That being said, truly active managers that can identify idiosyncratic risk have indeed been able to outperform their benchmarks over the past eight years, even on an after-fee basis. ", "But looking holistically across the entire universe of active strategies, as most passive advocates are wont to do, the sheer magnitude of this bull market and the central bank liquidity driving it has conspired against active funds. ", "Cheap debt and big flows of capital into passive vehicles have fed on themselves. ", "It’s a replay of the mid-1990s, when the market shifted to relatively inexpensive exchange traded funds in response to high fees and subpar returns.", "\n\nSmart beta funds have become so inexpensive and so ubiquitous that there are now more ETFs in this category than there are actively managed large-cap funds. ", "As a result, many stocks are simply being driven by factor or stylistic reasons rather than corporate fundamentals. ", "And a corollary is that many of the more common “smart beta” factors have become such crowded trades that they are almost certainly, distorting the market. ", "To wit, reason would dictate that the most profitable companies would be in demand in a low-growth environment such as today. ", "Ironically, many are trading at near all-time lows relative to the market valuations. ", "The last two times this happened — between 2000 and 2002 and between 2008 and 2009 — should at least give pause to those investors content to merely ride the index.", "\n\nThis year, thanks to ETF demand, high dividend stocks have generally outperformed, just as they did in 2012 and early 2013, ahead of the Taper Tantrum, when the Fed scaled back its bond-purchasing program. ", "That led to a massive reversal for these equities that had served as bond proxies for many income investors. ", "At the time, high-dividend payers were thought to be just as safe as bonds, yet investors got predictably burned. ", "In the years ahead of and following the Taper Tantrum, the S&P High Yield Dividend Aristocrats Index, comprised of the highest yielding domestic equities, represented one of the more volatile segments across all stocks. ", "Prior to the Fed’s decision to pull back on the bond-purchasing program, the index had been outperforming the S&P 500 by nearly 4%, and in the year that followed, lagged the S&P 500 by nearly 5%, representing a roughly 9% reversal over that time.", "\n\nIt’s a salutary reminder of the risks of piling into indices that are weighted by market capitalisation. ", "It also shows that passive investors aren’t only giving up the potential to outperform the market, they may be exposing themselves to meaningful unrealized factor risks and potential losses. ", "Hence, it is imperative to remember that active management isn’t solely about finding the idiosyncratic opportunities that translate into alpha; it’s about managing the downside during periods of higher market volatility.", "\n\nThe function of capital markets is to allocate resources to the most productive uses and the best managers of those businesses. ", "If fewer investment managers are doing the fundamental analysis needed to pick the best stocks and avoid the worst, the market’s capacity to price shares efficiently will eventually be undermined. ", "In the United States, index funds and smart beta strategies constitute roughly half of the of the investment funds operating today. ", "This translates into a market in which these passive strategies effectively magnify the noise, while overlooking the signals that reflect the market’s intrinsic value. ", "It’s not unreasonable to think that an inflection awaits those content to overlook the qualitative analysis needed to identify bubbles and steer clear of market risks that can’t be discerned by an algorithm or screen. ", "As the godfather of value investing, Benjamin Graham, said, there’s no such thing as passive investing. ", "Any investment that isn’t based upon thorough analysis, promising the safety of principal and an adequate return, is merely “speculation.”", "\n\nDaniel J. Farren is a senior portfolio analyst for Boston Partners. ", "He joined the firm from Alliance Bernstein in New York where he spent over three years in a sales capacity covering Hedge Funds and concentrating on Event Driven Research. ", "Boston Partners has approximately $81.5 billion of assets under management." ]

", "In subjects representative of the general population of Monza (Italy), the risk of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality was assessed >16 years in stable and unstable WCH individuals, that is, those in whom ambulatory blood pressure (BP) normality was associated with a persistent or nonpersistent office BP elevation at 2 consecutive visits, respectively. ", "Data were compared with those from an entirely normotensive group, that is, ambulatory and persistent office BP normality. ", "Compared with the normotensive group, the risk of cardiovascular and all-cause death was not significantly different in unstable WCH, whereas in stable WCH the risk was increased also when data were adjusted for baseline confounders, including ambulatory BP (hazard ratio, 16; P=0.001 for cardiovascular death and 1.92; P=0.02 for all-cause death). ", "At a multivariable analysis, office BP was among the factors independently predicting death, and results were superimposable with use of Monza population-derived and guidelines-derived cutoff values for ambulatory BP normality (125/79 and 130/80 mm Hg, respectively). ", "Thus, only when office BP is persistently elevated does WCH reflect the existence of an abnormal long-term mortality risk. ", "This means that in WCH office BP is prognostically relevant and that repeated collection of its values is clinically important to better define patient risk." ]

Daniel Marr & Son, 763 F.2d 477 (1st Cir.1985).", "\n\n\n13\nPeterson Brothers relies heavily on the Fifth Circuit's decision in Corbesco to support its argument that a reasonable employer in the steel erection industry would not have known it was required to install safety nets pursuant to Sec.

", " As a result of the accident, the compliance officer cited Corbesco for failing to install safety nets. ", " Corbesco contested the citation, arguing Sec. ", "1926.105(a), as a general regulation, \"fails to give an employer notice that it must use a safety net when its employees are working on the flat roof of a large building, like an aircraft\" hangar.

", " Corbesco, 926 F.2d at 428. ", " However, the Court ultimately held Corbesco had constructive notice of the requirement to use safety nets because of other circumstances in the case. ", " Specifically, the Court held the Commission's frequent holdings that the regulation requires an employer to provide a safety net or one of the other enumerated safety devices in circumstances like those at issue in Corbesco gave rise to a duty to at least inquire whether the employer had to install safety nets. ", " Because the employer had constructive notice of the duties imposed upon it, its constitutional rights were not violated.", "\n\n\n14\nCorbesco does not provide support for Peterson Brothers' argument that a reasonable employer in the steel erection industry would not know that Sec. ", "1926.105(a) applies. ", " The Court did not address the issue of whether that general standard is preempted by the specific steel erection industry standards, nor did it address whether an employer in Peterson Brothers' position had sufficient notice that Sec. ", "1926.105(a) applied. ", " In fact, the applicability of Sec. ", "1926.105(a) was not in issue in Corbesco--the Court addressed only whether Sec. ", "1926.105(a), when applicable, gave adequate notice that safety nets were required when working on a flat roof.", "\n\n\n15\nPeterson Brothers argues the following factors would lead a reasonable employer to believe the installation of safety nets was not necessary. ", " First, until several months after the accident at issue, the Commission maintained the position that the specific steel erection standards were the only ones applicable to the steel erection industry, see Secretary of Labor v. Bratton Corp., 1990 WL 201595 (O.S.H.R.C.1990), and that the general construction industry standards were preempted by those specific standards. ", " Second, the industry custom was not to use perimeter safety nets and Peterson Brothers was never cited for failing to use the nets, nor for violating Sec. ", "1926.105(a). ", " Third, no connector working for Peterson Brothers had ever fallen to the perimeter of a building being erected. ", " Finally, Peterson Brothers contends the Secretary selectively enforced the standard, thus making it less likely a reasonable employer would know of its applicability.", "\n\n\n16\nThough we acknowledge that, at the time the citation was issued to Peterson Brothers, the Commission's position was unclear as to whether the specific steel erection standards preempted the general construction industry standards, we hold that other surrounding circumstances gave Peterson Brothers adequate notice that Sec. ", "1926.105(a) applied. ", " First, by the time the citation was issued, several circuit courts had addressed the issue, holding that the specific steel erection standards do not preempt the general construction standards where the steel erection standards provide no protection. ", " See, e.g., L. R. Willson & Sons, Inc. v. Donovan, 685 F.2d 664 (D.C.Cir.1982) (Sec. ", "1926.750(b)(1)(ii), the specific steel erection standard, does not preempt Sec. ", "1026.105(a), the general construction industry standard, because Sec. ", ".750(b)(1)(ii) specifies only measures for interior fall protection; Sec. . ", " 105(a) provides the only standard for exterior fall protection); Bristol Steel & Iron Works, Inc. v.

Adams Steel Erection, Inc., 766 F.2d 804, 807-10 (3d Cir.1985) (the steel erection standards do not deal with the particular hazard of an exterior fall from a perimeter beam; accordingly, the specific standards do not preempt the general requirement of safety nets found in Sec.

Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, 649 F.2d 1160 (5th Cir. ", " Unit B July, 1981). ", " Accordingly, a reasonable employer in the steel erection industry would have had adequate notice that Sec. ", "1926.105(a) applied to the steel erection industry, and the citation based on a violation of that regulation does not violate Peterson Brothers' due process rights.", "\n\n\n18\nII. ", "Whether 29 C.F.R. Sec. ", "1926.105(a) Was Violated in This Case\n\n\n19\nPeterson Brothers argues substantial evidence does not support a finding of a violation of Sec. ", "1926.105(a) in this case. ", " Section 1926.105(a) provides:\n\n\n20\nSafety nets shall be provided when work places are more than twenty-five feet above the ground or water surface, or other surfaces where the use of ladders, scaffolds, catch platforms, temporary floors, safety lines, or safety belts are impractical.", "\n\n\n21\nBecause the company used safety belts and temporary flooring, Peterson Brothers contends, safety nets are not required. ", " The company cites as support Brennan v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, 488 F.2d 337 (5th Cir.1973) and Brennan v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, 513 F.2d 713 (8th Cir.1975).", "\n\n\n22\nThe company misses the point of the citation. ", " The citation was directed at the hazard of an exterior fall facing connectors working on perimeter beams. ", " Though it is true that Peterson Brothers installed temporary flooring and perimeter railing, and that some employees used safety belts, the connectors preferred not to use, and did not use, their safety belts with lanyards in order to maintain their mobility. ", " Transcript from O.S.H.R.C. hearing at 86. ", " The company was aware of this preference and did not require the connectors to use their belts, nor did the company use exterior nets. ", " Finally, one of the company's own witnesses, Bill Landfair, testified that the connectors had no protection from exterior falls while working on beams at the perimeter of the building. ", " Transcript at 127. ", " Accordingly, the record clearly demonstrates the company provided no protection against exterior falls for the connectors. ", " These facts establish a violation of Sec. ", "1926.105(a). ", " See Williams Enterprises of Georgia, 832 F.2d at 572-73; see also Marshall v. Southwestern Industrial Contractors and Riggers, Inc., 576 F.2d 42, 45 (5th Cir.1978) (\"Where the safety belts were not 'used' in any meaningful sense for a substantial portion of the workday, and the employees were afforded no protection from a dangerous fall, we are compelled by our holding in Southwestern Contractors to defer to the Secretary's reasonable interpretation that [Sec. ", "1926.105(a) ] requires the use of some means of reasonably continuous fall protection\").", "\n\n\n23\nFurther, neither case cited by Peterson Brothers supports the company's contention that its use of temporary floors and safety belts by other employees provided the necessary protection from exterior falls for the connectors. ", " In Brennan v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, 488 F.2d 337 (5th Cir.1973), the Fifth Circuit held Sec. ", "1926.105(a) was not violated, despite the failure to use safety nets, when a welder was working on a mobile scaffold, and a hoist operator was attached to the hoist by a rope tied around his waist. ", " Clearly, that case does not support Peterson Brothers' argument because the company in Brennan used other safety measures listed as alternatives to safety nets in the regulation to protect against the danger at issue in the citation. ", " In Brennan v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, 513 F.2d 713 (8th Cir.1975), the Commission held the employees, who were working on the roof and on scaffolding, were working on temporary flooring and scaffolding within the terms of Sec. ", "1926.105(a), and no safety nets were required. ", " The Eighth Circuit affirmed that interpretation as reasonable. ", " Again, the employer provided other safety devices enumerated in the regulation for the employees at issue, thus making safety nets unnecessary under the terms of the regulation. ", " Both cases are distinguishable from the facts at hand because the evidence clearly shows that Peterson Brothers provided no alternative safety devices for the connectors. ", " The record contained sufficient evidence to hold Peterson Brothers violated 29 C.F.R. Sec. ", "1926.105(a).", "\n\n\n24\nIII. ", "Whether Peterson Brothers Established the Defense of Infeasibility of Compliance\n\n\n25\nPeterson Brothers argues the evidence raised the defenses of impossibility and economic infeasibility. ", " The Secretary argues the Commission's ruling that Peterson Brothers failed to prove a valid affirmative defense is supported by the record and the applicable caselaw. ", " We may reverse the Commission's decision only if its conclusions are \"arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law.\" ", " Corbesco, 926 F.2d at 425 (citations omitted).", "\n\n\n26\nAt the hearing before the administrative law judge, Peterson Brothers introduced evidence that it would be technically impossible to comply with the requirement that the nets be no more than 25 feet below the work area. ", " Specifically, an expert witness, the former president of another large steel erection company, testified that it would be impossible to erect the nets within two stories of where the employees are working because the nets must be supported from two stories above the nets. ", " Because the connectors were just beginning the construction on the level where the supports would be attached, he testified, there would be nothing to which the supports could be attached in order to protect the connectors while they worked. ", " Accordingly, the nets cannot be erected closer than three stories below where the connectors worked.", "\n\n\n27\nA compliance officer testified that because personnel safety nets would not need to be as large as material nets used to catch debris, personnel nets would not require the same amount of support. ", " The supports for personnel nets could be welded to the edge of the temporary floor and extend straight out from that level without support from above.", "\n\n\n28\nThe Commission acknowledged that the testimony of those two witnesses created a fact dispute as to whether it was impossible for Peterson Brothers to comply with the requirement that the nets be within 25 feet of where the connectors were working. ", " However, the Commission declined to resolve the issue because \"Peterson Brothers must comply to the extent it can even if complete compliance is not possible.\" ", " Commission Decision at 14 (citations omitted). ", " That conclusion is supported by the caselaw: \"A technical defense, where some means of protection is available, is not an excuse for disregarding safety precautions. ", " The Secretary's view, shared by the Commission, requires limited compliance where it furnishes some protection, even if exact compliance is not possible.\" ", " Cleveland Consolidated, Inc. v. O.S.H.R.C., 649 F.2d 1160, 1167 (5th Cir.1981). ", " According to even Peterson Brothers' position, it would have been possible to erect nets three stories below where the connectors were working, thus affording them some protection from exterior falls. ", " The Commission's conclusion that Peterson Brothers did not establish the defense of technical impossibility was not an abuse of discretion.", "\n\n\n29\nPeterson Brothers also introduced evidence that it would be economically infeasible to use perimeter safety nets. ", " Specifically, Peterson Brothers' president testified that using perimeter nets would have greatly increased the cost of performing the steel erection. ", " He testified to an inexact estimate of what nets would have cost on this steel erection. ", " Despite the fact that the sum was substantial, he testified his company had the resources to absorb the costs on this project if required to do so. ", " However, he testified to his concern that the company would lose future business because he would have to increase his bids to incorporate the costs of using the nets, and his competitors, who do not use the nets, would not have to increase their bids accordingly.", "\n\n\n30\nA standard is economically infeasible where \"increased costs would make the proposed substitute technology impracticable.\" ", " A. E. Burgess Leather Co. v. Occupational Safety & Health Review Commission, 576 F.2d 948, 951 n. 2 (1st Cir.1978) (citing Industrial Union Dept., ", "AFL-CIO v. Hodgson, 499 F.2d 467, 477 (D.C.Cir.1974)). ", " The president of the company testified that Peterson Brothers could have absorbed the costs on the project in question. ", " The company did not, however, introduce evidence of the effect the use of the nets would have on the existence of the company other than the assertion that the company could not maintain competitive bidding because of the non-compliance of other companies. ", " An employer cannot be excused from non-compliance on the assumption that everyone else will ignore the law. ", " A. E. Burgess Leather Co. v.

", "The majority of DENV infections have been shown to result in subclinical outcomes \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref001], [@pntd.0006975.ref002]\\]. ", "Patients with DHF/DSS are most often infants born to DENV-immune mothers or individuals experiencing a secondary DENV infection, indicating a role for pre-existing DENV immunity in exacerbating dengue disease \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref003]\\]. ", "A major challenge for researchers has been identifying the specific immunologic factor(s) that contribute individually or in concert to dengue pathology or protection from disease.", "\n\nAmongst the immune markers studied, higher levels of particular cytokines and chemokines have been found in the sera of subjects with severe dengue compared to mild disease. ", "A number of pro-inflammatory cytokines in particular have been implicated in severe dengue, including TNFα, IFNγ, IL-18, IL-1β, and IL-6 \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref004]--[@pntd.0006975.ref006]\\]. ", "In most of those studies, sera or PBMC obtained during or after secondary DENV infection were tested. ", "PBMC obtained prior to infection have typically not been available to determine whether pre-existing immune profiles could predict whether an individual developed subsequent subclinical infection or severe dengue.", "\n\nThrough a unique cohort study in Thailand, school-age children were subjected to active, school absence-based surveillance, and routine blood samples were obtained before and after the peak DENV transmission season \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref001], [@pntd.0006975.ref007], [@pntd.0006975.ref008]\\]. ", "The study design allowed detection of DENV seroconversions, i.e., a four-fold or greater increase in anti-DENV antibody titer between pre- and post-season blood draws, in the presence or absence of overt, clinically relevant illness (referred to hereafter as symptomatic and subclinical infections, respectively). ", "In previously published studies of this school-based cohort, memory T cell responses in pre-exposure PBMC were evaluated. ", "Higher frequencies of DENV--specific IFNγ- and IL-2-producing T cells were reported among schoolchildren who subsequently developed subclinical infection, compared with those who developed symptomatic secondary DENV infection \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref009]\\]. ", "Those data suggested a link between cytokine-producing T cells and subsequent mild or subclinical illness.

", "A ≥4-fold increase in anti-DENV HI titer between the January sample (pre) and any of the subsequent routine samples (post) was used to identify seroconversions. ", "Study participants were also monitored for school absences associated with fever from June to November. ", "Seroconversions which occurred without school-related absenteeism were defined as subclinical infections, and those which occurred with school-related absenteeism and which were associated with symptomatic laboratory-confirmed DENV infections during the corresponding period were defined as symptomatic infections.

", "Our analysis revealed that stimulation of PBMC with all four types of DENV induced the production of cytokines, nine of which significantly differed according to the clinical outcome of DENV infection. ", "Six cytokines/chemokines were more highly produced in PBMC of subjects who had subclinical infections, and three cytokines/chemokines were elevated in PBMC of subjects with symptomatic infections. ", "These data identified increased *in vitro* production of IL-12, IL-2R, MIP-1α, RANTES, GM-CSF, and TNFα (possibly along with IFNγ, MIP-1β, and VEGF) as a \"protective\" immune profile and increased *in vitro* production of IL-6, IL-15, and MCP-1 as a \"pathologic\" immune profile.", "\n\nThe \"protective\" profile suggested by our data indicates roles for a robust innate anti-viral response as well as activation of DENV-specific T cells. ", "While we do not know which cell types are responsible for production of these cytokines, the results of the ICS assay indicated that at least some of the TNFα and IFNγ is secreted by T cells. ", "DENV infection of dendritic cells has been demonstrated *in vitro* to induce IL-12 production \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref013], [@pntd.0006975.ref014]\\], which presumably contributes to T cell activation. ", "Additionally, the CC chemokines MIP-1α, MIP-1β, and RANTES are known to recruit monocytes/macrophages as well as lymphocytes, supporting a protective role for T cell effectors. ", "These data are in agreement with a study of experimentally DENV-challenged volunteers, which demonstrated higher frequencies of IFNγ-producing T cells in subjects who were protected from disease versus those who were not \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref015]\\].", "\n\nOur group previously found increased TNFα production measured by ELISA in response to stimulation with DENV antigen by PBMC collected before infection in children who were hospitalized versus not hospitalized during the subsequent secondary DENV infection \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref016]\\]. ", "In a later study involving a separate group of subjects, we found higher frequencies of IFNγ- and IL-2--producing T cells measured by ICS staining after overnight stimulation with DENV antigen among schoolchildren who subsequently developed subclinical infection, compared with those who developed symptomatic, secondary DENV infection \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref009]\\]. ", "In both of the previous studies, we stimulated PBMC *in vitro* with inactivated, DENV-infected Vero cell lysates that was shown to predominantly stimulate CD4+ T cells. ", "In the current study we set up both ICS and 7-day culture assays, the latter using infectious DENV and expanding the number of cytokines/chemokines tested. ", "We found additional chemokines whose production was associated with either subclinical or symptomatic DENV infections. ", "Comparison of data from the two different assays is complicated by the differences in stimulation conditions (infectious virus versus inactivated DENV-infected Vero cell lysate), length of incubation time following stimulation (overnight versus 1 week), and assay method (intracellular cytokine staining versus cytokine analysis of cell culture supernatants); however, compiling the results from this and previous studies suggests anti-viral cytokine production is generally beneficial.", "\n\nIn a human challenge model of influenza, IL-6, IL-15, and MCP-1, among others, were highly upregulated in the first several days post-challenge in subjects who later developed symptoms; while serum samples from subjects with no symptoms post-challenge did not have elevations of these cytokines \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref017]\\]. ", "Those results are similar to our findings here in the context of natural DENV infection. ", "IL-15 is important for maintaining memory CD8+ T cells and NK cells and is being used in cancer treatments to increase NK cell-mediated anti-tumor activity. ", "In hantavirus infection, however, IL-15-mediated activation of NK cells was shown to circumvent self-tolerance mechanisms leading to targeting of uninfected endothelial cells, demonstrating a potential role in pathogenesis \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref018]\\]. ", "MCP-1 is involved in recruitment of monocytes/macrophages and lymphocytes and has been implicated in diverting T cell responses from a Th1 toward a Th2 type response \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref019]\\]. ", "Such a shift in responses would be consistent with the lack of IFNγ production we saw in the current study in symptomatic subjects. ", "Further study of these cytokines and of the role of NK cells in particular in DENV infection is warranted.", "\n\nThe production of IL-6 in PBMC from all symptomatic individuals compared with only a subset of subclinical individuals was a particularly striking finding in this study and suggests its potential role in dengue disease pathogenesis. ", "IL-6 levels have been shown to be elevated in the sera of dengue patients and in several studies were significantly associated with more severe disease \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref004], [@pntd.0006975.ref005]\\] IL-6 has various roles in immunity; it has been shown to increase the production of anti-platelet or anti-endothelial cell auto-antibodies and tissue plasminogen activator \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref020], [@pntd.0006975.ref021]\\]. *", "In vitro*, DENV has been shown to induce the upregulation of TLR-2 and TLR-6 which stimulated the production of IL-6 and TNFα in PBMC \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref022]\\] Recombinant DENV NS1 protein was also shown to stimulate IL-6 production *in vitro* \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref023]\\]; however, this may not explain completely our finding, as we saw type-specific differences in the induction of IL-6. ", "Identification of the cell subsets responsible for IL-6 production would be an important extension of our study and would further clarify the immunological pathways responsible.", "\n\nSeveral limitations of the present study should be noted. ", "We measured cytokine levels at a single time point post-stimulation; assessing protein concentration at earlier and/or later time points to create a kinetic profile of these cytokines might yield additional information. ", "Although we tested a wider array of cytokines compared to our earlier studies, most did not show significant associations with clinical outcome, and many other cytokines were not included in the panel. ", "We also used a single representative virus strain for each DENV type; thus, differences in cytokine production observed between the four types may reflect characteristics of the specific strains used rather than apply generally to that type. ", "Cytokine levels were measured in the cell culture supernatants, and therefore we are not able to identify the cell types responsible for their production. ", "It is possible that some cytokines were secreted in response to initial cytokine secretion by other cells, for example antigen-specific T cells, highlighting the dynamic inter-cellular relationship of cytokine secretion and the resulting complexity underlying interpretation of these data. ", "Additionally, as our study population included very few subjects who were hospitalized, we cannot determine if the \"pathologic\" immune profile we observed is associated with more severe presentations of dengue. ", "Finally, our cohort study design limited us to PBMC samples from approximately 4--7 months prior to DENV infection. ", "Any changes in immune profiles during that time due to other, related infections or the process of waning immunity are therefore unknown. ", "Future study designs will attempt to close that temporal gap in order to address the influence of an individual's current immune profile on an incoming infection.", "\n\nOur results suggest that the type of DENV used for stimulation has a strong influence on cytokine secretion. ", "Although it is difficult to standardize the virus inocula across types, stimulation with DENV-1 appeared to induce a different immune profile compared to stimulation with DENV-2, -3, and -4. ", "In symptomatic individuals, DENV-2, DENV-3, and in some cases DENV-4 appeared to induce down-regulation of chemokine responses while stimulation with DENV-1 increased IL-15, IL-6 and MCP-1 levels significantly. ", "It should be noted that all of the subjects included in the present study experienced DENV infection in 1998 and were in primary school during that year. ", "Thus, the history of prior DENV infections in this study population may be relatively uniform. ", "We do not have data on previously infecting types for these children, and as mentioned above extrapolating such information based on NAb titers is not straightforward. ", "This therefore limits our ability to analyze type-specific results in the context of previous infection history. ", "In other studies using PBMC collected from Thai children with DENV infection we found preferential recognition of the DENV-1 variant of an epitope on the NS3 protein by CD8+ T cells \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref024]\\], and of DENV-1 virus by B cells \\[[@pntd.0006975.ref025]\\]. ", "Further studies will therefore be needed to determine if these differences reflect an inherent quality of DENV-1, genetic factors in the Thai population, or the immune history specific to this geographic region and year.", "\n\nIn summary, our analysis of cytokine production by PBMC collected prior to DENV infection in response to DENV stimulation revealed a number of cytokines/chemokines whose production was associated with the clinical outcome of infection.

The presence of possible former binaries among the known ETNOs has profound implications regarding the interpretation of the observed anisotropies in the distributions of the directions of the orbital poles and perihelia of the ETNOs. ", "Summarizing:\n\n(i) We confirm that the pair of ETNOs 474640–2013 RF$_{98}$ is an outlier in terms of relative orbital orientation within the currently known sample of ETNOs.", "\n\n(ii) Wide binary ETNOs can dissociate during close encounters with putative trans-Plutonian planets. ", "Most binary dissociation events are the result of close encounters at minimum approach distances inside 0.25 AU. ", "For encounters below 1 AU over 20% of the binaries become unbound pairs; nearly 75% of all the binaries reaching separations from the perturber under 0.01 AU are disrupted.", "\n\n(iii) Unbound pairs resulting from binary dissociation events may have relatively different values of the semi-major axis and eccentricity but very similar values of the orbital inclination, longitude of the ascending node, and argument of perihelion parameters. ", "The difference in time of perihelion passage ranges from weeks to centuries, but grows rapidly over time.", "\n\n(iv) The unbound pairs are expected to move initially along paths featuring similar directions of the perihelia, orbital poles, and perihelion/aphelion velocities.", "\n\n(v) The unbound pairs can experience further, longer-range interactions with the perturber that may steadily increase their relative inclination, longitude of the ascending node, and argument of perihelion. ", "These changes will make the angular separation between their orbital poles and perihelia progressively greater.", "\n\n(vi) The existence of former binaries among the ETNOs may signal the transient nature of many or all of them. ", "If they are a transient population, seeking dynamical mechanisms able to make them long-term dynamically stable may not be necessary.", "\n\nThe research presented here must be understood as a proof-of-concept numerical exploration, not as an attempt at identifying the actual parameters of the trans-Plutonian planet that probably triggered the formation of the unbound pair of ETNOs 474640–2013 RF$_{98}$. Multiple versions of the perturber (see Fig. ", "\\[close\\]) can lead to binary dissociation events similar to the ones described here, but the actual probability of disruption depends strongly on the geometry of the encounter. ", "Very precise orbital solutions of the unbound pair under study are required to pursue a high-precision investigation in which the backwards integration of their orbits subjected to the action of a perturber leads to a bound couple (assuming that they were originally bound).", "\n\nAlthough the strength of disruptive encounters and the properties of the unbound couples depend on the choice of parameters and the time interval, our full $N$-body investigation captures the essence of the binary dissociation mechanism and firmly establishes its relevance within the ETNO context.

[ "Dear Friends,\n\nYear 2012 has been an eventful year for IJO with the introduction of several exciting features, the iPad app, the mobile downloads, author institute mapping and so on. ", "Year 2013 promises to be even better as the Diamond Jubilee kicks off to a great start. ", "Team IJO has several offerings for you starting with the monthly issues, a new look cover and an academic feast for your benefit.", "\n\nAs you can see, IJO has a brand new look for the Diamond Jubilee celebrations. ", "I would like to invite you for a special session in APAO -AIOS 2013 in association with BJO and APJO to give insights into the world of research and publications. ", "For the first time in the history of Ophthalmology, a special postage stamp is planned to be released by the IJO AIOS to commemorate 60 years of IJO! ", "A truly magnificent feat indeed.", "\n\nIn this issue, I draw your attention to two diseases which are on the upswing in India and are threatening the health of the average Indian - Diabetes and Hypertension. ", "An uninterrupted quest is on to delve deeper into the basic pathophysiology of these disorders and their complications. ", "Evolving insight into the biochemical and molecular basis of these diseases is set to turn our present perception of diseases and their management upside down in coming years. ", "This cannot be more obvious than in the management of retinal vascular diseases where the use of anti vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) and interferons is now commonplace. ", "This is a direct consequence of our better understanding of the biochemical mechanisms involved in these disorders.", "\n\nEvolution of management of retinal venous occlusions (RVO) also reminds us of the importance of better understanding of the fine biochemical and molecular mechanisms which are at the core of every living system.", "\n\nOnce steroids were the only useful choice in the treatment of macular edema (ME) secondary to RVO, which was gradually replaced by anti-VEGF agents in a hope to address the underlying upregulation of VEGF\\'s in retina and vitreous.\\[[@ref1]--[@ref4]\\]\n\nHowever, newer insights into the biochemistry and molecular biology has again tilted the balance the other way and intravitreal steroids are now more preferred for the treatment of ME in RVO.", "\n\nThough upregulation of VEGFs occur post venous occlusion, it is only a small piece in the big pathogenetic web of ME. ", "Not only VEGF\\'s but a number of cytokines and growth factors play their role in the breakdown of blood retinal barrier, evolution of ME and retinal neovascularization following retinal venous occlusions.\\[[@ref5][@ref6]\\] Presence of low grade inflammation in retina is also well documented in RVO.", "\n\nSince anti-VEGF\\'s target only VEGF isoforms, it could not be hailed as an appropriate treatment for ME following RVO. ", "Also, VEGF\\'s have been shown to have a protective role in retinal hemodynamics and have a neuroprotective role in hypoxic conditions. ", "VEGF\\'s also promote collateral vessels to overcome the effects of ischemic injuries and establish reperfusion of the retina. ", "Anti-VEGF\\'s are believed to induce vasoconstriction in macular capillary bed in hypoxic retina thereby perpetuating further hypoxic damage and macular ischemia.\\[[@ref7]--[@ref10]\\] Clinically anti-VEGF\\'s are contraindicated in patients with macular or foveal ischemia. ", "Shorter duration of stay of anti-VEGF\\'s inside eyes may also necessitate repeated monthly injections of these agents.", "\n\nIt has been demonstrated that steroids are as effective in the management of ME by virtue of their broad spectrum anti-inflammatory property. ", "Longer duration of action obviating the need for reinjection at short intervals is also a great advantage with intravitreal steroids.\\[[@ref11]\\] Steroids also suppress VEGF\\'s and in this way target a wider part of the pathophysiology involved in ME.", "\n\nIntraocular pressure (IOP) rise following the injection of steroids may be a concern for some, although in a majority of patients rise is mild and easily controlled by topical antiglaucoma medications.\\[[@ref11]\\]\n\nAgain, in this regard newer biochemical and molecular insights in the local regulation of glucocorticoid (GC) actions at the level of ocular tissues by 11 beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (11 beta HSD 1 and 2) and the role of GC in the regulation of aqueous formation and drainage through 11 beta HSD 1 (thus IOP regulation) offer fresh hope. ", "This understanding might help us come up with novel steroid preparations which would be free of the IOP increasing property.\\[[@ref12]--[@ref14]\\]\n\nIntravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) is the most commonly used intraocular steroid. ", "Recently, sustained release intravitreal dexamethasone implants have been introduced. ", "Incidence of ocular hypertension and cataract progression have been claimed to be lower than IVTA.\\[[@ref15][@ref16]\\] Clinical studies are awaited for the further evaluation of the role of these newer modalities in retinal vascular disorders.", "\n\nIn this issue Senturk *et al*., ", "has evaluated the role of IVTA on retinal sensitivity as evaluated by microperimetry, in cases of ME secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). ", "This is definitely a better approach than only assessing visual acuity, which is a foveal function, to judge the effectiveness of a treatment in these cases. ", "Authors approach will help in better assessment of the entire visual function, which is of more importance from the patient point of view, in response to the treatment. ", "First time microperimetry of the macular area has been simultaneously used with objective assessment of morphological changes at macula by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in cases of ME associated with BRVO in this study.", "\n\nI hope further advances anticipated in the understanding of biochemical and molecular processes of the living systems will help patients in a better way.", "\n\nI will keep you updated on the upcoming events in this very special Diamond Jubilee year!", "\n" ]

", "Because the then recently reorganized Associated Press refused to sell its services to several of his papers, most of them evening dailies in competition with existing AP franchise holders, in 1907 Scripps merged three smaller syndicates under his ownership or control, the Publishers Press Association, the Scripps-McRae Press Association, and the Scripps News Association, to form United Press Associations, with headquarters in New York City.", "\n\nScripps had been a subscriber to an earlier news agency, also named United Press, that existed in the late 1800s, partly in cooperation with management of the original New York-based AP and partly in existential competition with two Chicago-based organizations also using the AP name (as detailed at Associated Press and in AP's 2007 history, Breaking News: How the Associated Press Has Covered War, Peace, and Everything Else, cited below).", "\n\nDrawing lessons from the battles between the earlier United Press and the various AP's, Scripps required that there be no restrictions on who could buy news from his news service, and he made the new UP service available to anyone, including his competitors. ", "Scripps also hoped to make a profit from selling that news to papers owned by others. ", "At that time and until World War II, most newspapers relied on news agencies for stories outside their immediate geographic areas.", "\n\nDespite strong newspaper industry opposition, UP started to sell news to the new and competitive radio medium in 1935, years before competitor AP, controlled by the newspaper industry, did likewise.", "\n\nScripps' United Press was considered \"a scrappy alternative\" news source to the AP. ", "UP reporters were called \"Unipressers\" and were noted for their fiercely aggressive and competitive streak. ", "Another hallmark of the company's culture was little formal training of reporters; new hires were often thrust into a \"sink-or-swim\" situation of reporting on an unfamiliar subject. ", "They were weaned on UP's famous and well-documented (though frequently misappropriated and misquoted) slogan of \"Get it first, but FIRST, get it RIGHT.\" ", "Despite controversy, UP (and later UPI) became a common training ground for generations of journalists.", "\n\nWalter Cronkite, who started with United Press in Kansas City, gained fame for his coverage of World War II in Europe and turned down Edward R. Murrow's first offer of a CBS job to stay with UP, but who later went on to anchor the CBS Evening News, once said, \"I felt every Unipresser got up in the morning saying, 'This is the day I'm going to beat the hell out of AP.' ", "That was part of the spirit. ", "We knew we were undermanned. ", "But we knew we could do a darn good job despite that, and so many times, we did.\"", "\n\t\nDespite that, like all agencies that deal with huge volumes of timely information, UP and later UPI had its share of remembered mistakes. ", "As recounted in the various printed histories of UPI cited below, the most famous one came early in its history. ", "UP's president, Roy W. Howard, then traveling in France, telegraphed that the 1918 armistice ending World War I had been declared four days before it happened. ", "Howard's reputation survived and he later became a Scripps partner, whose name appeared in one of the Scripps subsidiary companies, Scripps-Howard. ", "But the mistake dogged UP/UPI for generations. ", "Still, the agency's reporters were often able to tell stories more quickly and accurately although they were usually outnumbered by the competition. ", "In 1950, for example, UP reported the invasion of South Korea by North Korea two hours and forty minutes before its archrival, the AP. ", "The New York Times later apologized to UP for refusing to print information on the invasion until the AP had confirmed it.", "\n\nUnited Press International\nFrank Bartholomew, the last UP president to ascend to the agency's top job directly from its news, rather than sales ranks, took over in 1955, and according to his cited autobiography, was obsessed with merging UP with the International News Service, a news agency that had been founded by William Randolph Hearst in 1909 following Scripps' lead.", "\n\nBartholomew succeeded in putting the \"I\" in UPI in 1958 when UP and INS merged to become United Press International The new UPI now had 6,000 employees and 5,000 subscribers, about a thousand of them newspapers.", "\n\nThe merger was aimed at creating a stronger competitor for the Associated Press and a stronger economic entity than either UP or INS. ", "The newly formed United Press International (UPI) had 950 client newspapers. ", "Fearing possible antitrust issues with the Eisenhower Administration Justice Department, Scripps and Hearst rushed the merger through with unusual speed and secrecy.", "\n\nAlthough all UP employees were retained, most INS employees lost their jobs with practically no warning. ", "A relative few did join the new UPI and the columns of popular INS writers, such as Bob Considine, Louella Parsons and Ruth Montgomery, were carried by UPI.", "\n\nRival AP was a publishers' cooperative and could assess its members to help pay the extraordinary costs of covering major news—wars, the Olympic Games, national political conventions. ", "UPI clients, in contrast, paid a fixed annual rate; depending on individual contracts, UPI could not always ask them to help shoulder the extraordinary coverage costs. ", "In its heyday, newspapers typically paid UPI about half what they paid AP in the same cities for the same services: At one point, for example, the Chicago Sun-Times paid AP $12,500 a week, but UPI only $5,000; the Wall Street Journal paid AP $36,000 a week, but UPI only $19,300. ", "The AP, which serviced 1,243 newspapers at the time, remained UPI's main competitor. ", "In 1959, UPI had 6,208 clients in 92 countries and territories, 234 news and picture bureaus, and an annual payroll of $34,000,000, ($) in today's dollars.", "\n\nBut the UP-INS merger involved another business component that was to hurt the new UPI company badly in later years. ", "Because INS had been a subsidiary of Hearst's King Features Syndicate and Scripps controlled several other newspaper syndicates, both companies feared possible antitrust issues. ", "So they deliberately kept their respective syndicates out of the combined UPI company. ", "That move cost UPI the revenues of its previous United Feature Syndicate subsidiary, which in later years made large profits on the syndication of Peanuts and other popular comic strips and columns.", "\n\nUPI had an advantage of independence over the AP in reporting on the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s. ", "Because the AP was a cooperative essentially owned by the newspapers, those in the South influenced its coverage of the racial unrest and protests, often ignoring, minimizing, or slanting the reporting. ", "UPI did not have that sort of pressure, and management, according to UPI reporters and photographers of the day, allowed them much freedom in chronicling the events of the civil rights struggle.", "\n\nWhite House reporter Helen Thomas became the public face of UPI, as she was seen at televised press conferences beginning in the early 1960s. ", "UPI famously scooped the AP in reporting the assassination of US President John Kennedy on Friday, November 22, 1963. ", "UPI White House reporter Merriman Smith was an eyewitness, and he commandeered the press car's only phone to dictate the story to UPI as AP reporter Jack Bell tried—without success—to wrest the phone away so he could call his office. ", "Smith and UPI won a Pulitzer Prize for this reporting.", "\n\nUP/UPI Newspictures, Newsfilm and Audio/Radio Network\n\nUnited Press had no direct wirephoto service until 1952, when it absorbed co-owned ACME Newspictures, under pressure from parent company Scripps to better compete with AP's news and photo services.", "\n\nBy that time, UP was also deeply involved with the newer visual medium of television. ", "In 1948, it entered into a partnership with 20th Century Fox subsidiary Fox Movietone News to shoot newsfilm for television stations. ", "That service, United Press Movietone, or UPMT, was a pioneer in newsfilm syndication and numbered among its clients major US and foreign networks and local stations, including for many years the early TV operation of ABC News. ", "In subsequent decades, it underwent several changes in partnerships and names, becoming best known as United Press International Television News (UPITN). ", "Senior UPITN executives later helped Ted Turner create CNN, with its first two presidents, Reese Schonfeld and Burt Reinhardt, coming from UPITN ranks.", "\n\nThe UPI Audio actuality service for radio stations, created in 1958 and later renamed the United Press International Radio Network, was a spinoff from the newsfilm service and eventually provided news material to more than a thousand radio stations and US and foreign networks, including NPR.", "\n\nDecline\nUPI came close to equaling the size of the AP in the early 1960s, but as publishing companies began to pare their evening newspapers, it was dropped by papers that could no longer afford to subscribe to both UPI and the AP. ", "UPI's failure to develop a television presence or subsidiary television news service has also been cited as one of the causes of its decline. ", "By the early 1980s, the number of staffers was down to 1,800 and there were just 100 news bureaus.", "\n\nUnder pressure from some of E. W. Scripps' heirs, the Scripps company, which had been underwriting UPI's expenses at a loss for at least two decades, began trying to transfer control of UPI in the early 1980s. ", "It tried to bring in additional newspaper industry partners and when that failed, engaged in serious negotiations with British competitor Reuters, which wanted to increase its US presence. ", "As detailed in \"Down to the Wire\", by Gordon and Cohen, cited below, Reuters did extensive due diligence and expressed an interest in parts of the UPI service, but did not wish to maintain it in full.", "\n\nScripps wound up giving the agency away to two inexperienced businessmen, Douglas Ruhe (son of David Ruhe, a member of the Universal House of Justice, the supreme governing body of the Bahá'í Faith) and William Geissler, originally associated with two better-known partners, who soon departed. ", "Ruhe and Geissler obtained UPI for $1. ", "Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Scripps first injected UPI with a $5 million cash balance, in acknowledgement of the $1.0 – $1.5 million per month that UPI was already losing. ", "Facing news industry skepticism about their background and qualifications to run an international news agency, Ruhe and Geissler watched an increase in contract cancellations. ", "Despite serious cash flow problems, they moved UPI's headquarters from New York City to Washington, DC, incurring significant additional costs due to construction cost overruns.", "\n\nDuring this period, UPI's 25-year-old audio news actuality service for radio stations was renamed the United Press International Radio Network. ", "But faced with recurring cash shortages and difficulty meeting payroll, the Ruhe-Geissler management sold UPI's foreign photo service and some rights to its US and foreign photos to the Reuters news agency. ", "It also sold UPI's U.S. photo library, which included the archives of predecessor Scripps photo agency Acme and the pictures and negatives of International News Photos, the picture component of Hearst's INS to the Bettman Archive. ", "Bettman was later sold to Microsoft founder Bill Gates's separate Corbis Corporation, storing them underground in Pennsylvania and digitizing them for licensing, frequently without any notation of their UPI origins. ", "In August 2011 Corbis announced a deal with AP to distribute each other's photos to their clients, effectively combining the pre-1983 UPI library with that of its former main rival for some marketing purposes. ", "In 2016 Corbis sold to the Visual China Group.", "\n\nThe London office of UPI, it first base in the United Kingdom, was created during the merger with INP in 1958. ", "The UPI London office was an early casualty in the UPI decline and the assets, including the photo archives, were sold off around 1970. ", "TopFoto is the current owner of the remaining photo archive and copyright of the UPI London photo agency.", "\n\nUPI's remaining minority stake in UPITN was also sold and the agency was renamed Worldwide Television News (WTN). ", "As with its photographs, UPI thereby lost all control of its newsfilm and video library, which is now held by WTN-successor Associated Press Television News, which entered the video news field long after UPI left it.", "\n\nYears of mismanagement, missed opportunities and continual wage and staff cuts followed. ", "By 1984, UPI had descended into the first of two Chapter 11 Mario Vázquez Raña, a Mexican media magnate, with a nominal American minority partner, Houston real estate developer Joseph Russo, purchased UPI out of bankruptcy for $40 million, losing millions during his short tenure, and firing numerous high level staff.", "\n\nIn 1988, Vázquez Raña sold UPI to Infotechnology, Inc., an information technology and venture capital company and parent company of cable TV's Financial News Network, both headed by Earl Brian, who also became UPI chairman. ", "In early 1991, Infotechnology itself filed for bankruptcy, announced layoffs at UPI and sought to terminate certain employee benefits in an attempt to keep UPI afloat. ", "At that point, UPI was down to 585 employees. ", "Later that year, UPI filed for bankruptcy for the second time, asking for relief from $50 million in debt so that it could be sale-able. ", "In 1992, a group of Saudi investors, ARA Group International (AGI), bought the bankrupt UPI for $4 million.", "\n\nBy 1998, UPI had fewer than 250 employees and 12 offices. ", "Although the Saudi-based investors claimed to have poured more than $120 million into UPI, it had failed to turn a profit. ", "The company had begun to sell Internet-adapted products to such websites as Excite and Yahoo. ", "At that point, UPI CEO Arnaud de Borchgrave orchestrated UPI's exit from its last major media niche, the broadcast news business that United Press had initiated in the 1930s. ", "De Borchgrave maintained that \"what was brilliant pioneering work on the part of UPI prior to World War II, with radio news, is now a static quantity and so far as I'm concerned, certainly doesn't fit into my plans for the future\". ", "He sought to shift UPI's dwindling resources into Internet-based delivery of newsletter services, focusing more on technical and diplomatic specialties than on general news. ", "The rump UPI thus sold the client list of its still-significant radio network and broadcast wire to its former rival, the AP.", "\n\nCurrent ownership\n\n\t\nUPI was purchased in May 2000 by News World Communications, a media conglomerate founded by Unification movement founder Sun Myung Moon, which also owned The Washington Times and various newspapers in South Korea, Japan, and South America. ", "The next day, UPI's White House correspondent, Helen Thomas, resigned her position, after working for UPI for 57 years.", "\n\nIn 2007 as part of a restructuring to keep UPI in business and profitable, management cut 11 staff from its Washington, D.C. office and no longer has a reporter in the White House press corps or a bureau covering the United Nations. ", "UPI spokespersons and press releases said the company would be focusing instead on expanding operations in the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa, and reporting on security threats, intelligence and energy issues. ", "In 2008, UPI began UPIU, a journalism mentoring platform for students and journalism schools, that allows recent college graduates to post their work on the site, but does not pay for stories.", "\n\nUPI sports awards\n\nUnited Press International conferred sports awards annually until 1996. ", "The awards were given to basketball players, basketball coaches, football players and athletes in general.

", "Here’s what Brown says about authenticity.", "\n\nAuthenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we’re supposed to be [or who we think people want us to be] and embracing who we actually are.", "Choosing authenticity involves the following:\n\nCultivating the courage to be imperfect, to set boundaries, and to allow ourselves to be vulnerable.", "\n\nExpressing compassion that comes from knowing that we’re all made of strength and struggle.", "\n\nNurturing the connection and sense of belonging that can only happen when we believe that we’re enough.", "\n\nAuthenticity demands wholehearted living and loving even when it’s hard… even when we’re wrestling with the shame and fear of not being good enough… and especially when the joy is so intense that we aren’t afraid to let ourselves feel it.", "\n\nPracticing authenticity during our most soul-searching struggles is how we invite grace, joy, and gratitude into our lives.", "\n\nAuthenticity is a popular buzzword today in organizations, businesses, and churches.

", "Brown points out in this video that empathy rarely starts with the words, “At least…” and that oftentimes, the best response is, “I don’t know what to say, but I am really glad you told me.” ", "Fixing your loved one’s problem is not often what is needed, nor is it necessarily your job or even within your ability to do so. ", "Sharing a listening, caring ear is something most people can do.

", "Again, this requires putting your own “stuff” aside to focus on your loved one.", "\n\nTo communicate your understanding of that person’s feelings—Rather than saying, “At least you…” or “It could be worse…” try, “I’ve been there, and that really hurts,” or (to quote an example from Brown) “It sounds like you are in a hard place now. ", "Tell me more about it.”", "\n\nBrown explains that empathy is a skill that strengthens with practice and encourages people to both give and receive it often. ", "By receiving empathy, not only do we understand how good it feels to be heard and accepted, we also come to better understand the strength and courage it takes to be vulnerable and share that need for empathy in the first place.", "\n\nIn short, empathy is different and better than sympathy because “empathy fuels connection; sympathy drives disconnection.”", "\n\nEmpathy… You’re going to have an opportunity to exercise it today.

", "This is what the wikipedia said: \"Black Flag was a hardcore punk band formed in 1977 in southern California, largely as the brainchild of Greg Ginn... They are widely considered the first hardcore punk band. ", "Black Flag forged a unique sound early on that mixed the raw simplicity of the Ramones with atonal and microtonal guitar solos and frequent tempo shifts. ", "Most of the band's material was released on Ginn's independent label, SST Records.\" ", "Well, that hardly tells the whole story. ", "There was a time when the only decent way to access the US indie hardcore scene (where the music was harder, faster and louder) was through SST Records, Alternative Tentacles, Dischord Records, Touch And Go Records and the Sub Pop Singles Club. ", "After all, beside Black Flag, groups such as Bad Brains, Descendents, fIREHOSE, Husker Du, Leaving Trains, Minutemen, Screaming Trees and Soundgarden all have appeared on SST Records. ", "If SST Records was a way to spread the music, the band, through its many personel changes, always reflected that do-it-yourself ethos before that turned into an ATTITUDE, especially from the late-'90s onwards and before hardcore punk splintered into straight edge (often seen as led by Minor Threat and later Fugazi and Youth Of Today) and other sub-genres such as skate punk, thrash metal, grindcore and emo. ", "According to the wiki, in the book, Get In The Van, vocalist Henry Rollins wrote that Ginn telephoned him in August 1986: \"He told me he was quitting the band. ", "I thought that was strange considering it was his band and all. ", "So in one short phone call, it was all over.\" ", "Just before that fateful call, Black Flag played their last concent at the Greystone Hall in Detroit on June 27, 1986. ", "A recording of the show has been circulating among the fans and a word of thanks to bydwuori for sharing this soundboard recording, with Rollins' vocals forceful and upfront, on the Dime site. ", "The wiki said: \"By this point the band had become increasingly talented at performing improvised 'jams', with Rollins screaming out lyrics quite literally as they came to him (as is evident on this recording), turning some songs like Louie, Louie into frenetic, almost unrecognizable blasts of intensity.\" ", "Later hardcore releases might have been even more frenetic but that's not what Black Flag were about. ", "Fronted by Rollins' tight vocals, growls and dynamic showmanship, a stage presence which he would finely-hone through the years, listening to this, one would have thought that this was a Rollins show, rather than a Black Flag gig. ", "Featuring many songs from In My Head, Ginn's guitar is quite exquisite - his is not blazing shards of noize - there is a controlled frenzy as on Kickin And Stickin and there is even a swinging groove between the guitar and Anthony Martinez's drumming on Society's Tease. ", "Apart from Ginn (and even then), it's likely no one else in the band had any inkling that this would be the final gig. ", "But that seemed an apropo way for the band to go. ", "Work every gig like it was their last, and one day they would be right! ", "And they did go out with a passion - the restless pull of Gimme Gimme Gimme which segues into a Louie Louie jam not only showed the musical history of the band but the ways in which musical ideas can stretch. ", "It must have been hard to imagine fans who grew up with the band reflecting today on tracks as such Retired At 21 (\"You're retired at 21/Your mind is gone/ Your race is run\") or Annihilate This Week (\"You annihilated this week/Now it's Sunday and you weep/A future of fun/Or a guilt loaded run\"). ", "But as gregsolo commented on the internet: \"If a new band today had performed this version of White Hot, they would be hailed as gods. ", "Unreal and must have.\" ", "Click on the highlighted tracks to download the MP3s (these are high quality, stereo MP3s - sample rate of 192 kibit/s). ", "As far as we can ascertain, this recording has never been officially released.", "\n\n\n\nNote: Due to the size of some of the files, please be patient when downloading the tracks.

[ "A Study in Emerald\n\n\"A Study in Emerald\" is a short story written by British fantasy and graphic novel author Neil Gaiman. ", "The story is a Sherlock Holmes pastiche transferred to the Cthulhu Mythos universe of horror writer H. P. Lovecraft. ", "Gaiman describes it as \"Lovecraft/Holmes fan fiction\". ", "It won the 2004 Hugo Award for Best Short Story. ", "The title is a reference to the Sherlock Holmes novel A Study in Scarlet.", "\n\n\"A Study in Emerald\" first appeared in the anthology Shadows Over Baker Street, a collection of stories combining the worlds of Arthur Conan Doyle and H. P. Lovecraft; it has subsequently been available as part of Gaiman's short story collection Fragile Things, in the collection New Cthulhu: The Recent Weird, and is available online. ", "The online version takes the form of a Victorian periodical or newspaper, which includes various advertisements that reference characters such as Vlad Tepes, Victor Frankenstein, Spring Heeled Jack, and Dr. Jekyll.", "\n\nIn the introduction to Fragile Things, Gaiman cites Philip José Farmer's Wold Newton Universe, Kim Newman's Anno Dracula series (which Gaiman helped create), and Alan Moore's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen as being the major influences of \"A Study in Emerald\".", "\n\nWhen asked if Gaiman had any plans to make a followup set in the world of the story, Gaiman said: \"I hope so. ", "I know the title and the protagonist of the next story in it.\"", "\n\nPlot summary\nThe story begins with its (as yet) unnamed narrator, a veteran of a bloody war against the \"gods and men of Afghanistan\", where he has been brutally tortured and his arm injured, setting the scene for things to come. ", "Seeking lodgings upon his return to England (or \"Albion\", as it is referred to throughout the story), he meets and strikes up a friendship with a man who possesses extraordinary insight and deductive skill, and who puts this ability to use in the service of the police as a 'consulting detective'. ", "Early on in their acquaintance, Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard arrives at their lodgings in Baker Street with a matter of extreme and delicate urgency regarding a brutal murder in a Whitechapel slum, and the detective is to be hired to solve the case. ", "After investigating the murder scene (where the detective correctly deduces that the victim is an alien noble from Germany, owing to his inhuman appearance and number of limbs), and puzzling over the word Rache scrawled onto the wall in the victim's blood (echoing a scene from A Study in Scarlet), they are taken to the Palace. ", "The Queen, one of the Great Old Ones who defeated humanity 700 years ago and now rule the world, consults with them about the affair. ", "As payment for his services, the Queen heals the veteran's withered shoulder with a touch.", "\n\nThe investigation takes the detective and the veteran to a music hall show, starring a noted actor called Sherry Vernet. ", "A \"tall, languid\" man, Vernet stars in three productions, including a historical narrative depicting the war between humanity and the Great Old Ones. ", "Posing as a theatrical agent offering to take the show to the New World, the detective meets Vernet and quickly determines that he and another, a man with a limp and skill with surgical equipment, were present in the room where the German noble died. ", "Agreeing to meet the detective in his rooms, Vernet seemingly does not suspect a thing; the detective promptly summons Lestrade, intending to have Vernet arrested. ", "He reveals what he has deduced: that Vernet is a seditionary \"Restorationist\", an anarchist who believes that the Great Old Ones are not the benevolent rulers that they claim to be, but vicious, soul-destroying monsters from whom humanity must be freed. ", "Vernet lured the German noble to the Whitechapel rooms and turned the noble over to his accomplice, who committed the actual murder.", "\n\nBut when the detective and his allies try to spring their trap, they find that their quarry has eluded them, leaving behind only a letter that confirms the detective's suspicions; Vernet also possesses considerable deductive abilities and has deduced that the detective was not who he claimed to be. ", "Vernet reveals that he had briefly corresponded with the detective posing as a man named \"Sigerson\", offers suggestions for future undercover work and compliments several papers that the detective had written, including \"The Dynamics of an Asteroid\". ", "Vernet, who also uses the alias \"Rache\", also details horrors that he has witnessed being committed by the Great Old Ones as justification for the crime. ", "As Lestrade rushes off to search for Vernet and the limping accomplice (tentatively identified as a former military surgeon named John (or maybe James) Watson), the detective admits that it is unlikely that Vernet has left the city, having probably elected (as the detective would) to hide in the lawless depths of the rookery of St. Giles until the search is abandoned. ", "He requests that the veteran burn Vernet's letter, dismissing it as \"seditionary nonsense\". ", "The veteran does not do so, instead adding a copy of the letter and an account of the investigation to his bank deposit box, not to be opened until everyone involved in the case is dead. ", "He supposes that, due to undisclosed current events in Russia, this will likely be an imminent occurrence.", "\n\nThe story is signed \"S_________ M______, Major (Ret'd)\".", "\n\nOverview \nThe reader, from the beginning of the story, is misled to believe that the detective and his veteran friend, the narrator, are Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, by means of what information about them is provided and what concealed, and the fact that their roles in the story are parallel to those of Holmes and Watson in Conan Doyle's original Holmes stories. ", "Indeed, the story strongly mirrors the opening chapters of the original Holmes novel, A Study in Scarlet, from which it takes its name.", "\n\nWhilst almost none of the characters are explicitly identified in the text, it is strongly hinted by the twist ending that 'Rache' is Holmes, and the detective and his veteran friend are Professor James Moriarty and Colonel Sebastian Moran (who, in Doyle's original stories, are the criminal mastermind enemy of Sherlock Holmes and his right-hand man and accomplice, respectively). ", "The 'Limping Doctor', meanwhile, is identified explicitly as \"John (or perhaps James) Watson\".", "\n\nIn particular:\nThe 'detective' character has written a paper on 'The Dynamics of an Asteroid', which \"Rache\" comments on. ", "In the Conan Doyle books, Moriarty is the author of this paper.", "\nThe narrator signs his name at the end of his story. ", "Although the name is obscured, he possesses the initials 'S.M.', indicating that he is Sebastian Moran.", "\nThe narrator, when introduced to Vernet, is called Sebastian.", "\nThe 'detective' character is described to have a 'thin smile,' a physical characteristic Doyle repeatedly used to describe villainous characters in his stories.", "\nThe narrator repeatedly mentions what a crack-shot he was before being wounded. ", "In \"The Adventure of the Empty House\", Moran is described as an expert marksman.", "\nConan Doyle's drafts show he originally intended to call Sherlock Holmes \"Sherrinford\" (which some Sherlockians consider was actually the name of Sherlock's oldest brother). ", "Holmes' grandmother was a relative of the French artist Vernet. \"", "Sherry Vernet\" is therefore an obvious stage name for Sherlock Holmes.", "\nIn this story, Sherlock is a gifted actor. ", "In the story \"A Scandal in Bohemia\", Sherlock is said to be a master of disguise. ", "In the same story Watson laments on how \"The stage lost a fine actor, even as science lost an acute reasoner, when he became a specialist in crime.\"", "\nSimilarly to the above, the \"Limping Doctor\" is revealed by \"Rache\" to possess creative writing skills on top of his medical abilities and writes the plays performed by the theatrical troupe. ", "Watson was the narrator of almost all of the Conan Doyle stories, which were presented as his published accounts of the investigations.", "\n\"Sigerson\" is an alias used by Sherlock Holmes during the period when he is believed to be dead after he escapes Moriarty.", "\n\nConan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes is extremely selective about which fields of science he studies, with deep – indeed peerless – insight into matters such as chemistry, botanical poisons, and the soil types encountered in various parts of London, but a studied ignorance about matters less relevant to crime-solving such as basic astronomy. ", "The Holmes of this story, however, has chosen to pursue researches in advanced theoretical physics. ", "The detective reveals to the narrator that his correspondence with \"Rache\" involved the latter's \"wild theories\" concerning “the relationship between mass, energy and the hypothetical speed of light,” which he calls “nonsense, of course…but inspired and dangerous nonsense nonetheless.”", "\n\nWhile not explicitly stated at the conclusion of the story, based on the date that accompanies the \"signature\", the recent events in Russia most likely refer to the assassination of Tsar Alexander II in 1881, i.e. an assassination of a Great Old One of extreme importance.", "\n\nSpin-off media\nBritish game designer Martin Wallace created boardgame based on \"A Study in Emerald\", that was released in October 2013.", "\n\nIn June 2018, Dark Horse Comics published a graphic novel adaptation of the short story by Rafael Scavone, Rafael Albuquerque and Dave Stewart.", "\n\nAwards\n\"A Study in Emerald\" won the 2004 Hugo Award for Best Short Story, and the 2005 Locus Award for Best Novelette.
