Senior church leaders over 70 vaccinated, urge members to safeguard ‘themselves and others through immunization’
President Nelson calls vaccine a ‘literal godsend’
Salt Lake County health professionals on Tuesday administered the first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine to those over 70 years old in the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
“We have prayed often for this literal godsend,” President Russell M. Nelson said in a message published on his Facebook and Instagram accounts after he rolled up the left sleeve of his white shirt and smiled while a staffer at the Salt Lake County Health Department gave him the shot.
President Nelson and his counselors in the First Presidency also released an official statement Tuesday urging church members to “help quell the pandemic by safeguarding themselves and others through immunization” because “vaccinations administered by competent medical professionals protect health and preserve life,” according to a news release.
President Nelson noted that the church has supported vaccinations for generations. Its humanitarian arm, Latter-day Saint Charities, has funded more than 116 million vaccinations for various diseases across the world over the past several decades, according to the news release.
Eight of the church’s 15 senior leaders are older than 70 and therefore qualified for the vaccine now under Utah guidelines. Along with President Nelson, who is 96, the following received the first dose of the two-dose vaccine: Presidents Dallin H. Oaks and Henry B. Eyring of the First Presidency; President M. Russell Ballard, acting president of the Quorum of the Twelve; and Elders Jeffrey R. Holland, Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Quentin L. Cook and D. Todd Christofferson.
The other seven senior church leaders are all in their 60s and will wait for the vaccine with other younger Utahns, including two 69-year-olds, Elders Neil L. Andersen and Ronald A. Rasband.
Leaders’ spouses also received the vaccine — Sisters Wendy Nelson, Kristen Oaks, Patricia Holland, Harriet Uchtdorf, Mary Cook and Kathy Christofferson.
“With approval from our physician, my wife, Wendy, and I were vaccinated today against COVID-19,” President Nelson said in his social media posts. “We are very grateful. This was the first week either of us was eligible to receive the vaccine. We are thankful for the countless doctors, scientists, researchers, manufacturers, government leaders and others who have performed the grueling work required to make this vaccine available.”
Images shared by the church showed several of the leaders with the sleeves of their white shirts rolled up while sitting next to tables covered with syringes and bandages.
Other photos showed leaders working on paperwork and wearing masks — Elder Uchtdorf’s mask bore the phrase “Love, Share, Invite.”
“I’m glad our turn has come to have this vaccination,” President Oaks said in the release. “We’re very hopeful that the general vaccination of the population will help us get ahead of this awful pandemic. It’s hopeful, like the light at the end of the tunnel. There is relief and appreciation involved for those who have invented the vaccine and for those who have caused it to be generally available on a sensible priority system.”
President Nelson, a retired pioneering heart surgeon, has led global fasting and prayer for relief from the pandemic, noting earlier this year that “skilled scientists and researchers are laboring diligently to develop and distribute a vaccine against the coronavirus.”
In his social media post Tuesday, President Nelson, who published dozens of medical studies as a researcher, recalled growing up in an America beset with polio and the 1953 announcement by Dr. Jonas Salk that he had developed a vaccine.
“I then watched the dramatic impact that vaccine had on eradicating polio as most people around the world were vaccinated,” President Nelson said in his post.
The church has participated in eradicating diseases through vaccinations. Latter-day Saint Charities has been part of partnerships that helped eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus in Chad and the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 2019 and eradicated wild poliovirus in Africa in 2020.
Latter-day Saint Charities provides money to global immunization partners “to procure and deliver vaccinations, monitor diseases, respond to outbreaks, train health care workers and develop elimination and eradication programming. The results include more immunized children and fewer lives lost to measles, rubella, maternal and neonatal tetanus, polio, diarrhea, pneumonia, and yellow fever.”
Here is the full, official church statement:
In word and deed, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has supported vaccinations for generations. As a prominent component of our humanitarian efforts, the church has funded, distributed and administered life-saving vaccines throughout the world. Vaccinations have helped curb or eliminate devastating communicable diseases such as: polio, diphtheria, tetanus, smallpox and measles. Vaccinations administered by competent medical professionals protect health and preserve life.
As this pandemic spread across the world, the church immediately canceled meetings, closed temples and restricted other activities because of our desire to be good global citizens and do our part to fight the pandemic.
Now, COVID-19 vaccines that many have worked, prayed and fasted for are being developed and some are being provided. Under the guidelines issued by local health officials, vaccinations were first offered to health care workers, first responders and other high priority recipients. Because of their age, senior church leaders over 70 now welcome the opportunity to be vaccinated.
As appropriate opportunities become available, the church urges its members, employees and missionaries to be good global citizens and help quell the pandemic by safeguarding themselves and others through immunization. Individuals are responsible to make their own decisions about vaccination. In making that determination, we recommend that, where possible, they counsel with a competent medical professional about their personal circumstances and needs.

Traveling to Clifftop!
I've stopped somewhere in Ohio to find some wifi along the road to Clifftop (getting there later tonight) and I thought I'd take a sec to post something about the instruments I've decided to bring and why. Here's what's currently in the back of my car:
The Buckeye (here) - Great banjo for solo playing, singing along to, or smaller jams/duos
El Hefe (here) - For bigger jams. Also, I've added back the 6th string (here), which allows me to play more of a "supporting role" when Im not the only banjo in a jam.
Bacon Mandolin (here) - I met some really great mando players last year and I'm hoping to get some pointers!
Baritone Ukulele (here) - for early morning/unobtrusive picking
I left my guitar at home for a few reasons: first off, its a bit big and I've already got 4 other instruments with me. Secondly, if you have a guitar, people make you play it! I'd typically rather play banjo so why even present the option? : ) Perhaps not the most "jam friendly" decision I've made.
For some reason, my music tastes on the trip down have veered far from Old Time. So far, I've listened to Modest Mouse, Belle and Sebastian, the Killers, Jeff Buckley, and Creeper Lagoon. Oh and the Fugees! Kinda on a journey down memory lane....but I think I'll have it out of my system by the time I hit the festival : )
I'll be back next week with some good Clifftop stories! If you're going to the festival, come find me and say hi!
7/31/2017 02:43:32 am
Hope you get to drop in on Craig and Greg's Banjo Builders Showcase. There might be a prize for the most modified Buckeye!

Traveling together with music is a really great experience. I enjoy a lot of my road trips together with my cousins as we sing and play instruments. This will help you to enjoy the journey more. I appreciate the old taste of yours when it comes to music. Actually, I love old songs, those vintage melodies keep my feeling and emotion calm. It helps me to think clearly and radically. You will enjoy your travel experience if you have been accompanied by some musical instruments. Just make sure that you're going to play it whenever the people request some songs.

Guo Huai 郭淮 was a loyal general of Wei. He entire military service was spent in Liang and Yong provinces fighting against Shu-Han and suppressing bandit rebellions. It was because of his actions the Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei could not secure victory in their numerous campaigns north.
Was elected as Filially Pious and Incorrupt. He took a post as an official in Pingyuan county. Served Cao Pi as a General of the Gentlemen of the Household of All Purposes. Served as Secretary to Prime Minister Cao Cao.
Service Under Cao CaoEdit
At the Battle of Mt. Dingjun in 219 A.D., Guo Huai served as a Major under the command of General Who Subdues the West Xiahou Yuan. Xiahou Yuan was going to give command to Guo Huai, but he fell ill so he was unable to participate in the battle against Shu-Han. Xiahou Yuan was killed in battle and the Wei forces were routed.
General Who Subdues Rebels Zhang He and Guo Huai collected the scattered remnants of the army at Nanzheng (east of Mt. Dingjun). Having just lost their leader, the men were troubled and unsure of what to do. It was Guo Huai who proposed that they follow Zhang He, he said: "General Zhang is a celebrated leader of our state. Liu Bei is afraid of him. As the situation becomes more critical every day, our minds will not be easy unless General Zhang takes command." Thereupon, it was agreed, Zhang He was made leader and he brought order to the army.
The next day, Liu Bei wanted to cross the Han to gain access to Baoye Road[n 1] (goes north through Xiegu Valley and comes out near Chang'an). The various generals believed they were too weak to match Liu Bei and wanted to array the troops along the river bank in order to block him. However, Guo Huai said: "Such tactics will only show weakness, and will not give us a strong enough position against the enemy. This is not a good plan. It would be best to set our position some distance from the river as a means to entice them over. When they are half-way across we can attack them. By this means, Liu Bei can be defeated." When Liu Bei saw the enemy troops, he grew suspicious and did not cross. Guo Huai held his ground and showed he had no plans on withdrawing.
When King of Wei Cao Cao 曹操 heard, he fully approved his conduct. He granted the Staff of Authority to Zhang He and confirmed Guo Huai as his Major.
Service Under Cao PiEdit
When Cao Pi succeeded Cao Cao, he ennobled Guo Huai as Marquis of Guannei (關內). Guo Huai was then transferred to serve as Chief Clerk of Zhenxi (鎮西).
Again, Guo Huai went to levy troops from the Qiang and Hu tribes of the north alongside General of the Left Zhang He and Champion?? General (冠軍將軍) Yang Qiu and destroy the bandit Zheng Gan. The Hu tribes around the Lu river revolted, but all were pacified by the Wei forces; Guanzhong was settled and the people kept safe.
In 220 A.D. when Emperor Cao Pi took the Imperial throne, Guo Huai, among other officials, was summoned to attend and congratulate him. However, Guo Huai fell ill, again, which meant he arrived late. Cao Pi was irked by Guo Huai tardiness implied that he should execute him, by making reference to a mythological story about Yu the Great and Fangfeng. Guo Huai quickly responds, saying: "I have heard that the Five Emperors of old first instructed and guided the people in virtue. It was during the Xia dynasty and afterwards that governance declined, and punishments and oppression began to be employed. Finding myself now in the era of Tang and Yu (Emperors Yao and Shun), I thus know that I myself may avoid the fate of Feng Fang.". Cao Pi was impressed by Guo Huai's quick wit and instead of punishing him, enfeoffed him as Inspector of Yong province and Marquis of Sheyang (射陽).
Guo Huai returned to oversee Yong province. In Anding, a great commander of the Qiang, Pi Fan, rose up in rebellion. Guo Huai went and quelled his uprising. Pi Fan surrendered as did the rest of the Qiang.
Zhuge Liang's Northern CampaignsEdit
In 228 A.D., Shu-Han Prime Minister Zhuge Liang led his first campaign north. At the time, Guo Huai was on a tour of inspection along with the Ma Zun, Grand Administrator of Tianshui, on their way west from Luomen. When Guo Huai heard the news, he turned to Ma Zun and said: "This is not going to turn out well."
Ma Su and Gao Xiang acted as the vanguard, advancing to Jieting and Lieliu city, respectively. Whilst Zhang He was dealing with Ma Su, Guo Huai dealt with Gao Xiang. The Shu-Han vanguard forces were crushed and Zhuge Liang forced to retreat.
Unfortunately, the invasion from the south also sent three of the northern commanderies into open rebellion. After driving back Zhuge Liang, Guo Huai led his forces to Baohan (枹罕) to settle the rebellion of the Qiang Chieftain, Tang Ti.
For his role in the campaign, Guo Huai is promoted to General Who Establishes Might.
In 229 A.D., Zhuge Liang attacked for a third time. He appointed Chen Shi as his vanguard and dispatched him to attack Wudu and Yinping commanderies. Guo Huai quickly brought his troops against Chen Shi and they met in open combat at Jianwei (approx. 30 km northwest of Wudu on the west Han river as it flows through Qinling), but Zhuge Liang's main force arrives and Guo Huai is forced to withdraw. Instead of retreating, Guo Huai established a defensive position in order to check Zhuge Liang's advance. Shu had claimed some ground, but not wanting to waste strength fighting a fortified enemy, Zhuge Liang was unable to get more.
In 230 A.D., Cao Zhen launches a three-pronged counteroffensive against Shu-Han. Zhang He is given command of the western advance and Guo Huai serves under him. Zhuge Liang dispatches Wei Yan to the far north to deal with the non-Han people; sowing dissension and trading weapons. Zhang He dispatches Guo Huai and Fei Yao to obstruct Wei Yan's retreat back to Shu-Han. The combined forces meet Wei Yan at Yangqi, but Wei Yan overcomes them and returns to Shu-Han.
In 231 A.D., Zhuge Liang advances on Mt. Qi (Qishan). Through a quick set of manoeuvres, Zhuge Liang was able to advance to Shanggui county. Guo Huai attempted to intercept him on his march, but was defeated and so Zhuge Liang was able to quickly steal the harvest around Shanggui county. To compensate for the loss of food at Shanggui, it was decided that they bring in supplies from Guanzhong. Guo Huai used his reputation among the Qiang, Hu and those who lived in the valley to secure supplies from them, thus was the army sufficiently supplied. Guo Huai was promoted to General Who Rises in Prowess.
In 234 A.D., Zhuge Liang launched what would be his final campaign north. The Shu-Han forces emerged from the Xiegu Valley (斜谷), south of Mei. Commander-in-Chief Sima Yi led forces from Mei across the Wei river and built fortifications east of the exit to Xiegu Valley, blocking Zhuge Liang's advance on Chang'an. With Zhuge Liang's eastern advance blocked, Guo Huai feared Zhuge Liang would attempt to advance north. Guo Huai set a missive to Sima Yi saying: "If Zhuge Liang traverses the river, crosses the northern plains and sets up a position on the northern mountains, he will isolate Longdao and agitate the people and barbarians. This is not in the state's benefit." Sima Yi agreed with Guo Huai's position and ordered him to block Zhuge Liang's advance. Guo Huai's men built a temporary barricade on the northern plain and Zhuge Liang was unable to advance.
After a few days, Zhuge Liang's men began to move west. Many of the generals suspected that he intended to attack Xiwei (西圍). Guo Huai alone suspected Zhuge Liang's movements to be a feint and that he actually intended to head east to seize Yangsui (陽遂). That night, Zhuge Liang did indeed attempt to take Yangsui. But as it was forewarned it did not fall and so Zhuge Liang had to retreat back across the Wei river to Wuzhang Plains.
Latter Days of Shu-HanEdit
In 240 A.D., Shu General Jiang Wei[n 2] came to Longxi (隴西), he attempted to rile up the Qiang and Di tribes. Guo Huai immediately mobilised his forces and pursued Jiang Wei to Qiangzhong (彊中) and ran him out of the north. Guo Huai then led a punitive campaign against the Qiang Mi Dang (迷當) and captured 3.000 Di barbarians before relocating the rebellious tribes to Guanzhong so they could be kept an eye on. Guo Huai is promoted to General of the Left for his achievements.
Leaders of the Xiutu Xiongnu from Liang province named Liang Yuanbi also surrendered to Guo Huai and brought 2.000 families to settle in Yong province. Guo Huai was concerned about the instability in Xiliang so he memorialised the court and asked his base of operations be moved to in Gaoping in Anding commandery so he could better protect the people and defend the border. It was because of Guo Huai's request that the office of Commandant of Xichuan/Xiliang was created. Guo Huai was elevated to General of the Van.
In 244 A.D., Cao Shuang and Xiahou Xuan wanted to make a display of their power so they decided to attack Shu-Han. Guo Huai was tasked with leading the vanguard against the enemy. The whole campaign was a disaster for Cao Shuang and he was badly defeated, but because Guo Huai had never thought the campaign south prudent, his more cautious behaviour meant his own forces were not badly defeated.
In the beginning of 248 A.D., a large number of Qiang in Liang and Yong provinces rebelled. The rebellion, led by several chieftains: Ehe (餓何), Shaoge (燒戈), Fatong (伐同), E Zhesai (蛾遮塞), et al., attacked Weichang (圍城) city and sent envoys to Shu to ask for support. Zhi Wudai (治無戴) also rose in rebellion, joining their ranks. At the time, Protector of the Army Xiahou Ba was supervising the forces stationed at Weichi (為翅), so Guo Huai marched his forces to Didao to coordinate with him. However, they could not decide on a strategy.[n 3] Xiahou Ba said they should pacify Fuhan (枹罕) (in Longxi commandery just south of the river), which inside would suppress the rebellious Qiang and outside break the thieves [Shu].[n 4] But, Guo Huai suspected that Jiang Wei would launch a surprise attack on Xiahou Ba's rear. He quickly headed southwards to reinforce Xiahou Ba. As suspected, Jiang Wei did indeed attack Weichi. But with Guo Huai's additional forces Jiang Wei was defeated and forced to flee. With the Shu forces routed, Guo Huai went after the rebelling Qiang. He beheaded Ehe and Shaoge, and 10,000 of their settlements surrendered to him.
Even with their victories so far, there were still many Qiang in revolt. Zhesai had stationed his forces at Heguan (He Pass, 河關), Baitu (白土) castle and arrayed his forces along the Yellow river in defence. Guo Huai made a show of heading upstream and secretly crossed the river downstream with his troops. He launched a surprise attack against Zhesai's forces at Baitu, scoring a decisive victory. The Qiang rebel Zhi Wudai and his men were causing trouble in Wuwei (武威), but their family members had remained in Xihai (西海). Guo Huai hastily attacked Xihai in an attempt to lure Wudai into an ambush. Wudai hurriedly returned to protect Xihai, but was caught in Guo Huai's ambush just north of Longyi. Wudai's forces were routed. Unfortunately, they didn't flee far. Wudai's forces went and occupied the main road west of Mt. Shitou (石頭), cutting the line of communications. Guo Huai attacked them again and put them to rout yet again.
Now, Jiang Wei may have been routed once, but he hadn't retreated back to Yi province, he had only drawn back to Shiyang (石營). Jiang Wei left his position and received the remnants of the Qiang army at Qiangchuan (彊川). Meanwhile, another Shu officer Grand Administrator of Yinping Liao Hua had set up a fortified position at Mt. Chengzhong (成重), and he too was attempting to gather the scattered Qiang. Guo Huai wanted to split his force in half to take both. However, the other generals all thought this to be a bad idea. Jiang Wei had a large force and would not be overpowered, and Liao Hua held a strategic position so he too could not be beaten, as a result both forces would be crushed; the best solution was to march west as a single unit and sever the lines of communication between the two enemy forces, and deal with them one at a time. Guo Huai said to them: "If we advance immediately against Liao Hua, the enemy will certainly not expect that, and Jiang Wei will be caught flat-footed. We need only to deal with Liao Hua, and that will bring about Jiang Wei’s ruin in itself, and even make him want to abandon his mission. For his soldiers are not very far to the west of us, yet the tribes are all scattered each in their own places. This is a plan that, by making a single movement, fully achieves both objectives." Thereupon, Guo Huai dispatched Xiahou Ba so he could harry Jiang Wei's forces from the rear, while he assaulted Liao Hua's fortifications. Sure enough, Jiang Wei hastily came to Liao Hua's aid, and everything proceeded as Guo Huai had planned. Guo Huai was enfeoffed as Marquis of Duxiang (都鄉) for his efforts.
In 249 A.D., Sima Yi put Cao Shuang to death and also summoned his acquaintances to the capital; Xiahou Xuan was one such friend of Shuang's. Guo Huai selected to be his replacement, he was promoted to General Who Subdues the West, Chief Controller of Yong province and controlled all military activity in the northwest. Chen Tai was given Guo Huai's old position as Inspector of Yong province.
In the autumn of that same year, Shu-Han General-in-Chief Jiang Wei invaded Yong province. He built two fortresses on Mt. Chu and stationed General of the Standard (牙門將) Gou An, Li Xin, et al. within. Jiang Wei also incite the Qiang to invade neighbouring commanderies. Chen Tai advised Guo Huai that although the fortresses were strong, they were far from Shu and the supply lines feeding them along treacherous terrain. Furthermore, the terrain would also inhibit reinforcements. Thereupon, Guo Huai led Chen Tai, Governor of Nan'an Deng Ai, Xu Zhi, et al. to besiege Chu fortress. The Wei forces cut off the supply routes and access to water. The Shu forces requested battle, but they were ignored.
Jiang Wei's reinforcements were able to come to the rescue and they attacked Chen Tai's forces. However, instead of asking for help, Chen Tai tells Guo Huai to move to Jiang Wei's rear and cut his retreat. Guo Huai does so and Jiang Wei panics and then retreats. The isolated Shu-Han forces at Mt. Chu immediately surrender. Guo Huai then proceeds to subdue the rebellious Qiang tribes in the area.
In 250 A.D., an imperial order read: "Several times, the order which the dynasty had established in the Hanchuan region was threatened and on the point of collapse. Guo Huai has braved danger and achieved great merit. In his 30 years of service, outwardly, he punished bandits, inwardly, he soothed the people. Since coming of age, he has defeated Liao Hua and captured Gou An. His significant merits are self-evident. Today, Guo Huai is promoted to General of Chariots and Cavalry, with standing equal to that of the Three Excellencies. He shall bear the Staff of Authority, alongside his duty as Chief Controller of Yong." Guo Huai was now just below Sima Yi in terms of rank. Guo Huai was further ennobled as Marquis of Yangqu, his fief increased to 2780 households.
In Jun. 251 A.D., Sima Yi discovered Wang Ling was plotting conspiracy against him. Sima Yi had Wang Ling arrested along with all others suspected of involvement. The suspects were interrogated and all those found guilty were executed along with three degrees of relatives. Unfortunately for Guo Huai, his wife was Wang Ling's younger sister, meaning she was taken to be executed. Guo Huai's subordinate commanders as well as several thousand Qiang kowtowed before him and urged him to petition the court for her release, but he refused. Then Guo Huai's five sons kowtowed before him and pledged they would die if she did. Guo Huai could not let such a fate come to pass, so he sent a thousand riders to retrieve his wife.
Guo Huai sent a memorial to Sima Yi, saying: "My five sons lamented their mother, heedless of their own lives. With their mother gone, they could not remain. And if they were gone, I could not remain either. That is why I sent men to bring her back again. If I have gone beyond the limits of the law, then let the crime fall on me alone, and I shall present myself to answer for it." Around this time, there were numerous rebellions in the east, Wang Ling was just one example, and Guo Huai was a major stabilising force in the west. Considering the large outcry of support for Guo Huai's wife, Sima Yi could hardly risk Guo Huai's support. On top of this, Guo Huai had an extensive military career. Sima Yi allowed both Guo Huai and his wife to live.[n 5]
In 253 A.D., Wu and Shu-Han launch attacks against the east and west fronts. Guo Huai and Chen Tai are dispatched by Sima Shi to relieve Jiang Wei's siege of Didao in Nan'an. Guo Huai mobilised the entire forces of Guanzhong and advanced on Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei's provisions were limited so he retreated.
In 255 A.D., Guo Huai died. He was posthumously titled Chief General and Faithful (貞) Lord. His son Guo Tong succeeded him. Tong served the Inspector of Jing province till his death. Tong was succeeded by Guo Zheng.
During the Xianxi era (265-266 A.D.), Guo Huai's posthumous title was changed to Viscount of Fenyang.

- ↑ Text says Yangping, but this must be a mistake as it is located west of Mt. Dingjun. Zhang He's forces were fighting east of Mt. Dingjun, where Liu Bei was situated. Fleeing forces are hardly going to run through the enemy, thus they must have gone east. Cao Cao also brought his forces down Baoye Road when looking to recapture Hanzhong, so Zhang He and Guo Huai were effectively his vanguard holding the position.
- ↑ The SGZ actually says 蜀將羌維, but as there is no reference to a Shu general Qiang Wei, it is probably a mistake for Jiang Wei.
- ↑ Xiahou Ba and Guo Huai were supposedly at odds with one another (it's partially why Xiahou Ba felt the need to defect), if they had personal differences, it doesn't seem like Guo Huai let them get in the way of duty.
- ↑ Think they are trying to isolate the northern territories by seizing the south of the river. This will then stop Jiang Wei contacting those in the north.
- ↑ In 255 A.D., there is a law change where a married woman is not subject to the punishment of her birth family. Proposed by Cheng Xian, because of Guanqiu Jian's granddaughter.

After you’ve gone through an intense workout, there are certain foods you should eat that are much better for you than others. Sure, you can eat a bunch of junk food, but that’ll just negate so much of the progress you made from working out. But if you want to optimize your exercise with some good nutrition, here are three foods that’ll certainly do the job.
For non-vegetarians, chicken is an excellent and widely popular source of protein to eat after finishing an intense workout. Assuming it’s not fried or glazed, grilled chicken is one of the healthiest things you can eat when you’re craving some food after leaving the gym.
If you’re not a meat or chicken-eater, oatmeal is another great option. It’s a good source of carbs that won’t make you feel bloated, and it’s pretty darn warm and tasty. Just make sure not to add sugar, and instead add some fruit such as bananas.
It’s not called a super-food for no reason. Avocado has emerged in modern society as one of the healthiest foods around, providing a source of “good fat”, as well as protein and other vitamins, making it another great post-workout option.

UN experts are calling on Mexico to rethink the ‘Tren Maya’ trainline project to ensure that rigorous environmental checks and meaningful consultations are carried out and human rights defenders protected.
General Comment N° 26 of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights spells out the obligations of States parties to the ICESCR in relation to land rights. This constitutes the first guidance wholly dedicated to land rights across the UN Treaty Body system. CESCR’s new resource provides a major opportunity for land rights defenders at a time when the global battle for natural resources is at a historical high, and those who stand to protect their land are on the frontline. In all world regions, people who resist the destruction and exploitation of their land are facing judicial harassment, threats and murders. Indigenous and peasant communities who defend their rights to cultivate and live on their ancestral lands are dispossessed and extorted by powerful actors. CESCR’s General Comment spells out the measures that States parties must take to uphold compliance with the obligations set out in the Covenant.
🙌 welcome new guidance on #LandRights from UN Ctte on ESC rights
— Vincent Ploton 🌍🌻 (@vploton) January 9, 2023
ISHR welcomes the dedicated section of the General Comment on land rights defenders, which echoes our inputs and calls on States parties to:
- Publicly recognise … the importance and legitimacy of the work of human rights defenders and a commitment that no violence or threats against them will be tolerated
- Repeal of any State legislation or any measures that are intended to penalise or obstruct the work of human rights defenders
- Strengthen State institutions responsible for safeguarding the work of human rights defenders
- Investigate and punish any form of violence or threat against human rights defenders
- Adopt and implement programmes, in consultation with potential beneficiaries, that are well resourced and have inbuilt coordination mechanisms that ensure that adequate protection measures are provided to human rights defenders at risk whenever necessary
Speaking about this groundbreaking new guidance, the Committee’s Co-Rapporteur Rodrigo Uprimny said:
“I hope that communities whose land rights are denied, including indigenous communities, can count on the force of international law, and the norms dictated by the International Covenant on Economic, Social and and Cultural Rights. The General Comment reaffirms and reinforces the concept of free, prior and informed consent and also recognizes the fundamental work of defenders of land rights.”
For the first time since 2019, the NGO Forum ahead of the ordinary session of the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (the African Commission), was held in person in Banjul on 17 and 18 October. This session’s discussions focused on human rights and governance in Africa: a multi-dimensional approach in addressing conflict, crisis and inequality.
After three years of online sessions, the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights (the Commission) resumed in person sessions. The 73rd session was held from 20 October to 9 November 2022 in Banjul, The Gambia. This session was marked by the commemoration of the 35th anniversary of the Commission.

A new study by Somerville College Fulford Junior Research Fellow Dr Dania Albini has proven that pollution from treated and untreated sewage is the greatest threat to river biodiversity, causing more damage than runoff from farms.
The new study was released on World Rivers Day by Dr Albini as lead author, alongside other members of the freshwater ecology laboratory run by our Tutorial Fellow in Ecology, Professor Michelle Jackson.
The study, which gained extensive coverage in The Guardian, confirmed that no river in England passes tests for chemical or biological pollution, and government targets to improve the water quality in rivers will not be met. In response, the authors of the study say there is clear need for more regulation of water companies and improvements at their treatment plans to protect rivers.
Dr Albini said: ‘Our study highlights the disproportionate impact that sewage discharge has on river quality, presenting an urgent need for a comprehensive action plan targeting the sewage discharge problem.’
Treated sewage released by water companies into rivers and raw effluent that is dumped in rivers via storm overflows is the primary driver of increased nutrients, algae and sewage fungus in rivers, according to the study. It radically alters plant, animal and microbe communities and increases the abundance of harmful species.
‘Improvements to wastewater plants should be implemented along with more regulations,’ said Dr Albini. ‘These efforts are crucial in safeguarding the integrity and safety of our rivers – fundamental elements of both ecosystems and human wellbeing.’
Professor Jackson, who is senior author of the study, said: ‘There is ongoing debate about the cause of the poor ecological state of many rivers in the UK because it is difficult to disentangle different pollution sources. Here, we show that even treated sewage appears to have a stronger influence on river communities than pollution from the surrounding land. This important information should be used to prioritise the management and conservation of our rivers moving forward.’

Asian shares fell broadly on Wednesday, while the Australian dollar fell after unexpectedly low domestic inflation data, and short-term Treasury yields remained elevated ahead of the Federal Reserve’s rate decision.
Chinese markets wobbled after an official factory survey revealed that China’s manufacturing activity contracted for the fourth consecutive month in January.
MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan (.MIAPJ0000PUS) fell 0.5% and was on track for a 5% monthly loss, ending a two-month winning streak.
This was due in part to a sharp selloff in Chinese markets, which was fueled by concerns about the lack of large stimulus measures by authorities to boost the economy and dwindling investor confidence.
Concerns about the country’s struggling property sector persisted, as investors waited to see how the liquidation of China Evergrande Group (3333.HK) would play out.
China’s blue-chip index (.CSI300), which fell to its lowest level since 2019, was 0.7% lower on the day and down about 6% in January, marking its sixth consecutive monthly decline.
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index (.HSI)shed more than 1%, weighed down by property and tech names, and was on track for its worst January performance since 2016.
Beijing has intervened to support its sliding stock market, including a significant reduction in bank reserve requirements.
“There’s a patently clear sign in my mind (that) they don’t want the market to go down anymore,” Mark Matthews, Bank Julius Baer’s Asia head of research, said at an outlook briefing in Singapore on Tuesday.
“Up until last week, they somehow thought that they could get away with just little dribs and drabs, and somebody must have decided somewhere that actually, no, we have to do more.”
Japan’s Nikkei (.N225), which has been one of Asia’s standouts in recent years, appeared to be on track to end the month with a more than 7% gain, its best January performance in over 10 years.
The index was last down 0.5% as expectations rose for an impending BOJ monetary policy pivot.
A summary of the central bank’s January policy meeting, released on Wednesday, revealed that policymakers discussed the likelihood of a near-term exit from negative interest rates as well as potential scenarios for phasing out the bank’s massive stimulus program.
Following the release of the minutes, the yen advanced marginally, closing at 147.62 per dollar.
Nonetheless, the currency was on track for a monthly loss of more than 4% due to a resurgence in the dollar and the fact that Japan and the United States continue to have significant interest rate differentials.
The Australian dollar was last down 0.6% at $0.6564 after data on Wednesday showed Australian consumer price inflation slowed more than expected in the fourth quarter to a two-year low, raising expectations of imminent rate cuts.
Other market movements were muted as traders remained cautious ahead of the Fed’s rate decision later in the day, with expectations that the central bank would keep rates on hold.
The focus, however, will be on Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s post-meeting press conference, as well as any hints from policymakers about when the Fed may begin easing rates.
“It’s too early to claim victory on inflation… Therefore, we expect some persisting hints of tough language at this week’s FOMC,” said Benoit Anne, managing director in the investment solutions group at MFS Investment Management.
“But there is nothing to worry about. The macro backdrop is as good as we have seen in a very long time, characterized by diminished recession risks and favorable disinflation dynamics.”
Data released on Tuesday showed that U.S. job openings unexpectedly increased in December, and data for the previous month was revised higher, pointing to a still-resilient labor market that will allow the Fed to keep rates higher for longer.
This boosted the two-year Treasury yield, which typically reflects short-term interest rate expectations. It was last at 4.3345%, up more than eight basis points on the month.
The US dollar remained broadly stable, with the euro down 0.18% to $1.0823. Sterling fell 0.17 percent to $1.26795.
Oil prices fell after rising the day before, as tensions in the Middle East remained high.
Brent futures declined 38 cents to $82.49 per barrel. U.S. crude fell 32 cents to $77.50 per barrel.
Gold last traded at $2,033.94 per ounce, retreating from a two-week high set in the previous session.

At the edge of the Kalahari Desert in Namibia, in a community-run wildlife reserve called Nyae Nyae, where roughly 2800 San people live today in unyielding conditions, villagers shovel dirt over the skull of a bull elephant hunted earlier in the day. It will be dug up about a week later when the muscles around the tusks have receded.
The hunter will take the tusks home, while the meat, and a portion of the fee will go directly to community members, and to fund for conservation projects to protect the area’s wildlife. There is a trophy hunt limit of five elephants a year in Nyae Nyae representing real money, and a vital source of protein to the San.
Seen from the air Africa can appear as an illusion, rich velds and dramatic rifts, wide deserts and thundering rivers, these seemingly vast stretches of unfettered, unpopulated wild ostensibly forgotten by time and people. At a glance, it could be a repository for all our ideas about wilderness at its wildest. And yet today no patch here goes unclaimed, whether it’s marked, monetized, or fought over. The animals that roam the land have become commodified, part of a new consumerism, marketed and sold, their brands pitted against each other, their continued existence now a question of human demand, whim, and calculation. Wild game is the continent’s version of crude oil—and it too will run out someday. Revenues of hundreds of millions in federal excise taxes levied on hunters go directly to wildlife management and related activities each year in the U.S. alone. And anyone who keeps a freezer full of venison is likely to tell you that the act of killing your own dinner in the wild is more humane than buying the plastic-wrapped meat of industrially raised livestock. This hugely complex relationship that exists between man and animal, the hunter and the hunted, has always been one of the most difficult to navigate; we need to create a space for much needed dialogue, we can not, and should not simply turn away. This story is out in Octobers issue of National Geographic.

the Shipyard Nautor was founded in 1966, Pekka of Koskenkyla and was initially built only a 36-foot yacht. The first one was called Swan (Swan), which later gave name to the whole brand. Customers quickly noticed the high quality yacht that later became the trademark of Nautor.
the First boat of the Finnish shipyards was a mixture of luxury interior hull of fiberglass and technical solutions used in racing yachts. Models of the Nautor's Swan has successfully acted at competitions. So, Swan 48 won the Bermuda race 1972, and two years later Swan 65 won the world >Whitbread Round the World Race.
In the 80s with the arrival of the designer Herman Frers in the history of the company began a new phase. Lineup Nautor's Swan has added to Maxi-yachts. In 2001, the company began to produce monotypes. In August 2012, the shipyard, bazoumana Jakobstad, launched its two-thousand "Swan" — >90S Freya. Today in the Bank at Nautor's Swan, more than 2,000 boats from 36 to 131 feet, and it employs around 400 people are working.

TI shrinks industrial designs with industry's smallest 12-, 14- and 16-bit SAR ADCs
New ADCs push size, power and performance boundaries for industrial monitoring and control applications
DALLAS – Texas Instruments (TI) is enabling system designers to reduce the size of their industrial monitoring and control applications with its newest successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The ADS7042 is the industry’s smallest and lowest-power 12-bit SAR ADC, and the ADS8354 family includes the industry’s smallest 14- and 16-bit, simultaneous-sampling SAR ADCs. For more information about the ADS7042 and ADS8354 family, visit www.ti.com/saradc-pr.
The 1-MSPS ADS7042 pushes the boundaries of size and power. The tiny device uses only 690 uW of power at full speed and scales consumption down with sampling rate to unprecedented levels for use in ultra-low-power systems. At 1 kSPS, for example, the ADS7042 consumes less than 1 uW of power, enabling its use in remote system monitoring and energy harvesting applications. It can also be used in motor control, metering, and portable medical equipment, as well as space-constrained consumer applications, such as hard disk drives, computer peripherals, wearable fitness and smart phones.
Key benefits of ADS7042:
Enables industry's smallest sensor module designs: Tiny 1.5-mm by 1.5-mm package is 44 percent smaller than competitive devices.
Ultra-low power: Uses 52 percent less power than competitive devices.
Simple serial peripheral interface: Achieves 1-MSPS throughput with only a 16-MHz clock, 67-percent lower than the competition, which enables a seamless connection to most low-power processors, including TI’s MSP430™ microcontrollers.
The 2-channel ADS8354 family includes the industry’s smallest 14- and 16-bit simultaneous sampling SAR ADCs. With data rates ranging from 600 kSPS- to 2 MSPS-per-channel, no latency and dual, independently controllable internal voltage references, the family is optimized for the industrial market, most notably motor control, DC load control, optical networking, power quality, industrial automation and programmable logic controllers (PLCs).
Key benefits of the ADS8354 family:
Saves board space: Measures only 3 mm by 3 mm with two independently programmable voltage references, which enables separate full-scale ranges per channel. This reduces the need for external signal conditioning circuitry and cuts overall board space to further shrink industrial designs.
Large family provides design flexibility: 12-, 14- and 16-bit family includes 11 devices with data rates from 600 kSPS to 2 MSPS and with single-ended or differential inputs, which allows designers to more easily customize the analog signal chain to meet their industrial system needs.
Flexible interface with fast response time: Enables fast, no latency motor control with a simple, configurable 18-MHz or 32-MHz clock.
Tools and support to speed design
TI offers a broad range of support tools for the ADS7042 and ADS8354 family to speed time to market, including hardware demonstration kits, reference designs and simulation models.
System designers can evaluate the ADS7042 and ADS8354 family in a fraction of the time with performance demonstration kits (PDKs) that feature a simple one-click installation process. These first-of-their kind ADC demonstration kits include an evaluation module (EVM) and simple capture card for plug-and-play functionality, eliminating online software installations. To further speed evaluation time, the kits’ intuitive, easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) enables designers to quickly evaluate ADC performance in specific end equipment.
SAR ADC SPICE models to ease system-level design of input and voltage reference drive circuitry and IBIS models to perform timing analyses are available for all of the new devices.
The following TI Designs reference designs provide theory, simulation, calculation, design methodology and more for designing with the new precision ADCs:
•12-bit data acquisition system for low-power and ultra-small form factor applications in the following three speed grade options (TIPD168):
-1-MSPS data rate for hard disc drives, motor control, motor encoders, optical encoders, and optical modules.
-500-kSPS data rate for current monitoring, battery monitoring, electromyography (EMG), skin impedance, and wearable fitness equipment.
-1-kSPS data rate for taking tilt, gyro, pressure, temperature, gas, chemical and blood glucose sensor measurements.
•12-bit, 1-MSPS, dual-channel data acquisition system for optical encoders (TIPD117).
Customer support is available on the Precision Data Converters Forum in the TI E2E™ Community, where engineers can search for solutions, get help, share knowledge and solve problems with fellow engineers and TI experts.
Availability and pricing
The ADS7042 is available today in a 1.5-mm by 1.5-mm QFN for a suggested retail price of $2.10 in 1,000-unit quantities. The ADS7042EVM-PDK may be purchased for US$300 to speed device evaluation.

The traditional forms include many aspects of performance and musical instrumentation that are unique to particular regions or Aboriginal Australian groups; and some elements of musical tradition are common or widespread through much of the Australian continent, and even beyond. The occasion is usually a circumcision ceremony or a ceremony to purify a dead person's belongings with smoke. Simple Music Lesson - Indigenous Australian (NAIDOC) Composition and Performance. Kun-borrk songs terminate most commonly with the didjeridu first, often in conjunction with vocals. Musical Intimacies and Indigenous Imaginaries: Aboriginal Music and Dance in Public Performance Byron Dueck Abstract. Owned and operated by Indigenous Northern Territory artists and musicians, visitors have the opportunity to meet the maker of their instrument and hear the stories behind every piece sold. They are of oval shape with paintings of snakes, lizards, birds and more. Music is an integral part of Aboriginal ceremonies, also known as corroborees. Musical Intimacies and Indigenous Imaginaries: Aboriginal Music and Dance in Public Performance Just make sure you pick yourself up a souvenir to keep the memory alive when you leave. The earliest transcription of Aboriginal music was by Edward Jones in London in 1793, published in Musical Curiosities, 1811. Now disbanded but an important part of the musical history of our region, the Warumpi Band incorporated traditional didgeridoo and vocal work with a guitar-heavy, modern sound. If it’s not enough to just hear the music and you want to get involved in it, guests are in the right place. Because of their role in Indigenous traditions, the many festivals listed above are likely our guests’ best chance to see a traditional Aboriginal dance ceremony that may otherwise be unavailable. Tourism NT provides product listings to facilitate tourism operators and consumers connecting and booking products or services directly with each other. Country music has remained particularly popular among the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for decades, as documented in Clinton Walker's seminal Buried Country.

It is sometimes fitted with a mouthpiece of beeswax. — Born Long Ago, Creation's Keeper — Wire MC, Indigenous rapper. The Desert Song Festival is a ten day showcase of the incredible musical talent and vibrant multi-cultural community the Red Centre has to offer. Kun-borrk songs from Kunbarllanjnja (Gunbalanya) almost always follow the order of didjeridu, voice then sticks. With performances like the nightly Bungull ceremony, one of the world’s oldest preserved music traditions, and shows from emerging artists as well as our old NT favourites, there’s always an act worth catching at the Garma festival. Although traditionally the instrument was not widespread around the country - it was only used by Aboriginal groups in the most northerly areas - today it is commonly considered the national instrument of the Australian Aborigines by southern peoples and is world-renowned as a unique and iconic instrument. In addition to these Indigenous traditions and musical heritage, ever since the 18th-century European colonisation of Australia began, Indigenous Australian musicians and performers have adopted and interpreted many of the imported Western musical styles, often informed by and in combination with traditional instruments and sensibilities. Indigenous music of Australia comprises the music of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of Australia, intersecting with their cultural and ceremonial observances, through the millennia of their individual and collective histories to the present day. General. Anybody coming to visit around August should definitely make this part of their itinerary. They use instruments known as "Idiophones" to accompany songs. Aboriginal creation myths tell of legendary totemic beings who wandered over the continent in the Dreamtime, singing out the name of everything that crossed their path – animals, plants, rocks, waterholes – and so singing the world into existence. Sometimes the vocals finish first, sometimes the clap sticks, but the didjeridu never starts last or finishes last. An extremely high note starts the song, accompanied by rhythmic percussion, followed by a sudden shift to a low tone. Thus, they define the intangible relationship between Aboriginal music, beliefs and the land. Despite varying influences from non-Aboriginal people, most Indigenous groups in Canada have retained nation-specific musical traditions. Whether you’re heading to Darwin, Alice Springs, Katherine or Arnhem Land, we recommend you take the time or make the detour for a once-in-a-lifetime show. They relate the holder or the keeper of the song or Dreamtime story with an inherent obligation and reciprocity with the land. World famous after their viral performance in full ceremonial dress, the Djuki Mala dance troupe hails from the Elcho Islands, just off the coast of Arnhem land. They should not be used in any situations where traditionally oriented men or women of Central Australia may hear them, or be otherwise informed of their use, without explicit consent. The songs contain specific words and use a similar structure, and there is often a "final recitative", where lyrics are sung for a long period after the didjeridu and stick beating has stopped. Specific tribes had very different styles of music, and our guests are sure to find out plenty about the myriad of tribes that have populated the Top End during their stay. The movie Wrong Side of the Road and its soundtrack (1981), highlighting Indigenous disadvantage in urban Australia, gave broad exposure to the bands Us Mob and No Fixed Address. , Wajarra are non-sacred songs originating in the Gurindji region of the Northern Territory and performed for fun and entertainment. Often held before an event or activity, a Welcome to Country is a way to show respect to the traditional owners of the land.
