The motto of the 47th Apimondia International Beekeeping Congress, which will be held in Istanbul Congress Center on August 24-28 this year, is “Bees unite the world”. World beekeepers, honey industry experts, scientists, honey merchants, public institutions and organizations, including specialists in apitherapy, bee biology and beekeeping economics will come together at the congress and discuss a wide range of topics such as beekeeping and beekeeping for the development of rural areas. health, pollination and bee flora, beekeeping technology and quality.
In the Turkish language, there is an expression “Arı gibi ışışım”, which literally means “to work like a bee”, and it means to work extremely hard, almost non-stop, to achieve a goal. Bees actually build a comb, fill the comb with honey, ventilate the comb to evaporate the excess water in the honey, then seal the combs, etc. they work endlessly in their efforts. Hive life is very busy, with bees coming in and out and working non-stop. We also have a statement on this. When we talk about a store or place that is doing very well, a place that is very busy and crowded, we say “Beehive-like”, that is, busy like a beehive. In Turkish culture, bees, unlike other insects, are considered pure and respected animals because they produce honey, the main source of sweetness that makes up the life cycle and gives strength and energy. Honey is always considered a healthy food; Many people believe that drinking a spoonful in the morning will give you health and longevity. When you ask a very old person the secret of their age, the secret often comes as a spoonful of local honey every morning. As the bee goes to all the flowers to gather nectar, nature’s elixir, honey is believed to have almost supernatural powers, secrets that we can never discover. This is why honey is the main ingredient in many folk remedies.
Honey is not the only magical element in the world of bees. The task of the bee is not limited to making honey. Each bee works to support the pollination of many plant species by collecting as much pollen as possible for the growth of their hives, but this generally helps to increase the productivity of plants. For many dishes that come to our table; we should be grateful to the bees. 80 percent of flowering plants and trees reproduce thanks to pollen carried by bees. Thanks to pollination, the productivity and taste of vegetables and fruits increases. “If there were no bees, there would be no plants, no animals, and no people!” Apimodia is the motto of Balparmak, a leading honey producer/trading company, which is the Platinum sponsor of the congress. Özen Altıparmak, chairman of Balparmak’s management board, said, “We are proud to have Apimondia in Istanbul.” “Our biggest wish for Turkish honey is to see the value it deserves in the world markets,” he said, drawing attention to the importance of International Beekeeping. Congress for the development of industry in our country. In recent years, honey production has been affected by climate change, disease and natural disasters such as fires and floods, and has faced major setbacks that threaten the future of honey, bees and the beekeeping profession. The future of sustainable beekeeping and protection of bees as one of the most important elements of the ecosystem, scientific and technological developments in the sector will be discussed at the congress. Altiparmak says: “We care about our bees and beekeepers, who are the most important elements that ensure the sustainability of the ecosystem. Climate change, pesticide residues and pesticide use pose serious risks to bees. Beekeepers have important duties such as placing bees in the right place at the right time, protecting them from diseases, preparing them for nectar time by growing strong, keeping bees away from places where pesticides are applied, preventing bee diseases, and preventing bees from feeding. hygienic environment. All this constitutes the content of technical training. We also work to attract young people and women to the beekeeping profession with our training on modern beekeeping techniques at the Balparmak Beekeeping Academy.
All is not so sweet in the honey world. As well as having such valuable value in human health, honey also has considerable commercial value. Inevitably, honey fraud is one of the stickiest topics in the world of honey and beekeeping. It is difficult to stop the growth of counterfeiting in the honey business because it is difficult to detect counterfeiting even with sophisticated tests. It is becoming difficult for consumers to get natural and pure honey. Balparmak R&D Center has implemented a new method for determining the presence of brown rice syrup in honey. Imitation honey is usually made with corn syrup, beet syrup, and white rice syrup, but in the past, certain methods and tests have been developed to detect the addition of plant-based syrups to identify adulterated honey. But there was no way to prove the existence of brown rice syrup, which is closer to honey in color and is widely used in the market. As a result of intensive R&D research, Balparmak was able to identify the component in honey that is an indicator of brown rice syrup, and for this, they filed a patent application for the first method in the world. The method was published in one of the world’s most prestigious scientific journals, “LWT Food Science & Technology”, and entered the world literature. All the details of the method will be shared with the participants at the Apimondia congress. Finally, another topic to be discussed will be the future of pine honey, the world’s main producer, Turkey, which produces almost 90 percent of the world’s pine honey and has been severely affected by recent forest fires. year Bees are our future, so everyone who is interested in beekeeping and loves honey, pay attention to the bee and Apimondia!
Fungus of the Week: Kalecik was a sleepy, almost forgotten settlement located about 70 kilometers northeast of Ankara’s city center. The history of the city dates back to the Hittites, and even earlier to about 4000 BC, and although it remained an active trading city during the Ottoman period, the city later lost its luster due to the decline of viticulture due to the phylloxera disease. Back in the 1970s, the viticulture scientist of Ankara University’s Faculty of Agriculture, Professor Dr. That’s when Sabit Agaoglu began research to preserve the city’s blackish red grape known as Kalecik Karasi, or Kalecik Black. the legendary grape took off and became one of the most important local grapes of the Turkish wine industry, now grown not only in Kalecik, but also in the main vineyards from the Southern region of Denizli to Cappadocia. Those in Ankara are lucky! On August 27, the Kalecik Karası event will be held, with around 70 wines from sparkling whites, blushes and rosés to monosepage reds made with the Methode Traditonelle. Aagaoglu will be there and the master classes will be held by Professor Dr. Ertan Anlı (in Turkish) and Serhat Narsap (in English, London-based wine expert, founder of TWC, Turkish Wine Challenge) will be held. In one day, you can walk and sip all the KK available in the market and meet the producers. A great opportunity to learn all about the grape, a light medium-bodied ruby red flavor. The event is held at Litai Hotel, from 11:00 to 17:00 and tickets are 550 Turkish lira, https://kkankara.com/

Nestled among the Leaf Hills in Ottertail County, Inspiration Peak overlooks the open, oak savanna of western Minnesota. The Leaf Hills are a series of glacial moraines—mounds of rock and sediment built up by glacial movement left behind by Minnesota’s glaciers nearly 11,000 years ago.
Elk at Inspiration Peak is one of only two large dioramas at the Bell Museum to depict an autumn scene. The background, painted by Francis Lee Jaques in 1946, showcases the auburn, crimson, and amber leaves of the oak savanna from a unique perspective—above the landscape. Jaques’ painting extends the scene not only away from viewers, but beneath them, giving the entire scene greater depth and immensity.
Jaques’ brilliance is also showcased in his depiction of wildlife. The diorama depicts 14 elk and 5 red-tailed hawks, but with the exception of the taxidermied bull elk in the foreground, all were painted by Jaques. Each painted animal is carefully detailed, no matter its distance from the foreground. Even the most distant elk and hawks were painted with beautifully realistic detail (unlike those v-shaped birds we’ve all used to fill the skies of our own drawings).
Autumn is a transitional season when many plants and animals enter into a period of dormancy, and even those that remain active throughout the cold winter slow down and rest. Trees shed their leaves, birds migrate south, and many species bury themselves underground until spring. It’s a period of relative inactivity that is still full of life, if you know where to look for it, and that life is perfectly depicted here.
These elk are in the middle of their fall rut, when males fight for the right to breed with a harem, or group of females. While the fall rut is considered the elk’s mating season, a bull elk’s entire year is devoted to preparing for this time, unlike other species that begin preparations in the month or two leading up to their respective breeding seasons.
Every spring, a new set of antlers begins to grow beneath a thin layer of skin and velvet. This velvet is full of blood vessels that feed the bone underneath as the antler grows throughout the summer. As the rut begins, the velvet is shed, and the sharp, bony antlers beneath are exposed. Males wrestle with one another for control of a harem, locking antlers until one male forfeits, or is too injured to continue. The victor must then defend the harem from predators and other males until the rut has ended. In late winter each male’s antlers are shed, and in the spring a new pair will begin to grow again.
There’s more to see at Inspiration Peak than the elk rut. The foreground, constructed by John Jarosz and Walter Breckenridge, contains models of many common prairie species. Among them are a few late-blooming wildflowers. Downy gentian, purple coneflower, and silky aster dot the dry prairie grasses with flecks of purple, and the slope to the right is spotted with yellow hairy false golden asters.
A number of invertebrates populate the prairie foliage as well. Two butterflies, a monarch and a southern dogface (sulphur butterfly), rest in the dry grass, likely on their way to their southern wintering grounds. Built beneath the bright green leaves and orange berries of the American bittersweet, a bald-faced hornet nest subsides with the cold. Only this year’s new queens will survive the winter. The rest of the colony will die in the fall, and the following spring the queens will emerge to establish new colonies on their own.
Instead of the activity of new growth and migratory arrivals featured in many spring dioramas, Elk at Inspiration Peak feels relaxed and personal. Though this diorama is static, it depicts a time and energy that many of us are familiar with (though our experiences are likely elk-free). The warm colors, cool breeze, and rustling leaves of autumn are comforting for many because, like the plants and animals depicted here, we too are entering a period of relative dormancy as winter approaches.

Photos of Ohio riverside cities in late March 1913 show buildings surrounded by water, where water should not have been. The tremendous Easter weekend flood, part of a storm that brought tornadoes and high water to the U.S. from Nebraska to the East Coast and down the Mississippi valley, caused 752 deaths in Ohio, and it ended once and for all -- and in one city with a blast -- the state's canal system.
Ohio's canals opened the state to economic development in the mid-1800s. The Ohio and Erie Canal broke ground south of Newark in 1825, and the first stretch opened from Cleveland to Akron in 1827, reaching Stark County soon after. The canals brought prosperity to a state that had been isolated and struggling. But by 1900 canals were in decline, giving way to the railroads, and a series of improvements to locks in the early 1900s in the northern portion of the O&E were a last-ditch effort to save the canals in their last gasp of usefulness. That work was proven pointless a few years later when the flood hit the state.
Spring rains were abnormally heavy after a winter of record snowfall on Easter weekend of 1913, says Jack Gieck in "A Photo Album of Ohio's Canal Era, 1825-1913." The reservoirs near Akron were gorged, and excess water was spilling into the canal, destroying aqueducts and banks and flooding adjacent towns and farms. Trudy Bell in "Timeline" called it "a near-biblical deluge."
Heavy rains began early on the morning of Sunday, March 23, and continued all day and into Monday. The Little Cuyahoga River in east Akron submerged the lower floors of the Goodyear complex and extinguished the fires in the company's powerhouse, and the fire department evacuated families from homes along the banks. The stream, despite its name, is the size of a middling creek in that area, and a storm that produced enough water to flood buildings along its shores should give an idea of the incredible amount of rain and melted snow inundating the area.
On Tuesday morning the Little Cuyahoga's banks began collapsing and houses began floating away. Portage Lakes levels rose, and summer cottages were flooded. A dike on East Reservoir gave way, and the water divided at Young's Tavern, beside Manchester Road (state Route 93 just south of U.S. 224), going southwest toward Barberton and north to Akron. The torrent roared over the lock gates, making it impossible to open them to relieve the pressure, warehouses and stores along South Main Street were flooded, and boilers of the electric power plant in the Cascade valley, where the canal dropped through a series of locks from the summit in Akron to the Little Cuyahoga, were drowned. Several locks were dynamited to save the city.
The lockmaster at Lock One in downtown Akron called B.F. Goodrich engineer John Vance just before noon Tuesday saying the water was rising behind the lock's lower gates, which held back the nine-mile stretch of summit-level canal water. Workers from Goodrich, which was threatened by the water, worked for hours to build a levy of dirt-filled sacks, but by 9 p.m. it had begun to crumble. State offices in Columbus gave Vance executive authority, and he and a contractor found dynamite nearby and blew the lock gates. A geyser of water shot into the air, and millions of tons of water rushed down the canal to the Little Cuyahoga, destroying the cascade of locks. In Akron 9.55 inches of rain had fallen, across Ohio, and property damage totaled hundreds of millions of dollars. Portions of the canal were restored for industrial uses, but commercial traffic ended on March 26.
Terry K. Woods, of Canton, writes in "Ohio's Grand Canal" that the Tuscarawas River in Massillon floated a house along Tremont and drove it against a railroad trestle, where it disintegrated. The river flooded the Ohio Drilling Company, the Massillon Foundry and the Schuster Brewery in downtown Massillon to three or four feet, and Sippo Creek flooded the main business section. The police chief ordered saloons to close, and several drunken men were rescued from floodwaters. Much of Navarre was on high ground and was thus safe, but the canal in that village was ruined. The flooding Tuscarawas destroyed every bridge but one that crossed it in Stark County.
Although commercial canal traffic ended in March 1913, some stretches were preserved as sources of water for industry and can be seen today. The summit level of the canal in southern Summit County (the county took its name from the canal's summit) provided water for hydraulic power and cooling for industries in Akron and Barberton, so a 10-mile stretch was preserved, and the canal north through Akron was repaired enough to channel water through ruined locks to the Little Cuyahoga Valley, where it still enters that stream today by Mustill Store, a restored canal business that houses a museum. The rugged remains of the canal can be seen at Lock 3 Park and Cascade Locks Park in Akron. A stretch in Stark County provided industrial water to Massillon but was eliminated by the Route 21 expressway.
The Ohio Historical Society houses a collection of flood materials that can be seen in the Research Room in Columbus, and Stark Parks in partnership with the Massillon Museum is displaying photos of the flood from March 23 through the end of the year at Canalway Center at Sippo Lake Park. I recommend visiting the remains of the canal, especially its shattered remnants in Akron. Nothing brings home the effect of the flood like viewing crumbled lock walls and picturing a torrent raging down the valley, taking with it buildings and boulders and the Ohio and Erie Canal.

Brief description For many patients with cancer, the best hope for obtaining cures or much longer remission lies in new drugs that efficiently kill the tumour cells by targeting cell survival pathways or by somehow reinstalling chemotherapeutic response. We aim to develop novel small molecules able to neutralise pro-survival proteins. Furthermore, we aim to identify new tumour suppressor genes, some of which are likely to represent attractive targets for cancer therapy.

Claude Julien's crying is embarassing and needs to stop. Nothing from last game warranted such tears. You should be fined for accusing the other team of diving when you have Marchand in your lineup.
Every team does it from time to time, and you've got to be mentally challenged or simply irrational to think that a team benefits from it more than any other. You'll still have some conspiracy theorists coming in here telling us how some teams benefit from embellishment and how 9/11 was Bush's plan. Reading some of the Bruins fans on their board really feels like they're living in an idiocracy.

SmartMAG - Automated Self-Indexing Magazine and Rapid Selective Deployment System
Agency / Branch:
DOD / ARMY
Future weapon system operators of attack vehicles will use advanced ammunition technology as a battlefield force multiplier providing improved lethality and tactical superiority against the enemy. This will be accomplished by employing a suite of tactical,"Smart"rounds with varying capabilities to carry out defeat of the enemy. The use of Smart rounds will result in the soldier's spending less time engaged in costly and potentially deadly fire exchanges with enemy forces. The last barrier to achieving this critical tactical integration is a"Smart-Feed"magazine and deployment system to first locate the system-selected round in a magazine, and then rapidly deploy the selected smart round to the feeder at the gun turret. SMRC proposes the SmartMAG, an automated self-indexing magazine and rapid selective deployment mechanism. With the press of a button in the cockpit, the SmartMAG locates the selected round, transfers the round to the linkless feed system, then rapidly deploys the round to the feeder at the gun turret - all within seconds. The SmartMAG system will consist of an Ammunition Control Unit coupled with a Red-Green-Blue color sensor, a standard magazine storage unit, and a sprocket transfer assembly based on the current magazine technology available.

Westminster City Council has granted planning permission for two cycle hangars outside 18 Ilbert Street, W10 4QJ.
A cycle hangar of the type to be installed
Westminster's planning officers had advised against granting permission, on the grounds that Ilbert Street was a in a conservation area. We are grateful to Queen's Park Community Council, Councillor Heather Acton, Councillor Paul Dimoldenberg, Councillor Brian Connell and others for supporting the Ilbert Street on-street bike hangar planning application, with the result that the committee decided to grant permission.
Since conservation areas account for a large part of Westminster, it is extremely useful that the council has agreed to the principle of having cycle hangars in them. Otherwise it would have been difficult to install them elsewhere in the Westminster.
We understand that the hangars will be installed in March. However, permission was granted only for their temporary installation. Unless permission is obtained for making them permanent, they will have to be removed by 31 January 2018. Although this may make the hangars less attractive to potential users, we understand that a lot of interest has already been shown in using them.
After the hangars have been installed, the council will identify any issues that need to be addressed in any future roll-out as well as finding future possible sites for installation. Cycle Hoop, who provides the hangars, has a website (http://www.cyclehoop.rentals/) that allows residents to request them in their street and the council will be linking to that as part of the promotion.

U.S. Rep. Steny H. Hoyer recently visited the Charles County Hospice House to meet the staff and tour the 10-bedroom facility off of Davis Road in Waldorf.
Today, the Maryland General Assembly took significant action to help lift Maryland families out of poverty and help ensure they have the opportunity to succeed by raising the state’s minimum wage to $10.10 an hour.
Accompanied by U.S. Rep. Steny H. Hoyer (D-Md., 5th) and state Senate President Thomas V. “Mike” Miller Jr. (D-Calvert, Prince George’s), Brown’s campaign hosted a house party in each county before wrapping up his visit with a stop at The Greene Turtle in Prince Frederick to chat up local residents
U.S. Congressman Steny Hoyer (D-Dist. 5) of Mechanicsville said relocating the FBI to Prince George’s County is also a matter of regional equity
With close proximity to Washington, efficient transit connections, world-class institutions of research and higher education, and great neighborhoods, Prince George’s County is the right choice for the FBI’s new, consolidated headquarters.
"With thousands of employees, both stationed at the headquarters and visiting from field offices around the country, we anticipate significant economic growth directly outside the complex and in the surrounding region," Rep. Steny H. Hoyer, the Southern Maryland lawmaker, said in a statement.
It was a great honor to receive the Louis L. Goldstein Award last year, and I can think of no more deserving recipient for this year’s award than our outstanding Governor, Martin O’Malley.
WASHINGTON DC – Congressman Steny H. Hoyer (MD-5) released the following statement today after President Barack Obama announced his budget proposal for Fiscal Year 2015: “The President’s budget released today reflects important priorities for the state of Maryland and our nation – increasing economic opportunity promoting job growth and strengthening our national security while addressing our long-term fiscal sustainability. It also makes important investments in the Fifth District.
House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, D-Md., encouraged the crowd to “join up, pair up, and speak up."
“Pax River, Indian Head and Webster Field have become anchors for regional growth and development,” Hoyer said. “But there's more work that we must do to ensure that they're there because they support the jobs that will help more of our workers make it in America.

As of Friday, November 29, 2013
BEND (AP) — The Oregon attorney general’s office says most of the $17 million in state aid it alleged that two charter school operators misspent was in fact used properly for education.
In January, the attorney general’s office filed a claim accusing Tim King and Norm Donohoe of racketeering and money laundering through their company, EdChoices, between 2007 and 2010. It sought the $17 million as well as $2.7 million for breach of contract and legal fees. But the Oregon Department of Justice found it was mostly wrong about how the state aid was handled.
“When we were doing our investigation and litigation we discovered that most of the $17 million was not diverted but was spent properly on education purposes, which is why the negotiations led to the settlement we ended with,” said Michael Kron, the department’s government transparency counsel.
Under the settlement, King and Donohoe each are to pay the state $475,000 and refrain from a number of educational activities for four years, The Bulletin newspaper of Bend reported Wednesday.
Kron said it was hard to determine how much might have been diverted given the comingled funds of the enterprise. He said the state was not likely to have been made whole, but the two men have negative net worth and King has filed for bankruptcy protection.
“In any case with contested issues that have a resolution like this, the resolution is made without any stated wrongdoing and is a compromise on the part of all involved,” said Carl Rodrigues, attorney for Donohoe. “What’s fair to say is that everyone is glad the matter is resolved.”
King’s lawyer, Christopher Parker, said he had no comment.
King and Donohoe also agreed in the settlement never to consult with state-funded charter schools for compensation.
Beginning in 2006, King and Donohoe operated 12 charter schools under a company named AllPrep, which paid the Clackamas-based EdChoices for administrative work and online education programs. King was the director of EdChoices, Donohoe president and chief financial officer.
Oregon charter schools get state aid based on enrollment. Money is first sent to the sponsoring district, which takes a portion, before passing the remaining funds to the charter.

Stacey Solomon has been crowned the most glamorous mum of the year, according to a new poll.

Founder of The GLOMAMA Awards Agnes Ageypong said: "Seeing other mothers on social media sharing their authentic motherhood journeys - the highs and the lows - really inspired me to keep pushing.
"I know there is a lot of negativity that is associated with social media, but for me it really was a lifesaver and once I began to feel better I vowed to create a platform to celebrate all of those mothers who, unbeknown to them, had inspired me to glow up."
She added: "I had no idea so many other mothers felt like me, and wanted to be seen and heard.
"Now we have a national movement of mothers across the UK celebrating one another and cheering each other on through The GLOMAMA Awards. I am so proud of all of our nominees and winners and I am so excited for our 4th Annual GLOMAMA Awards."
Stacey earned the prize for best Instagram profile due to being open and honest with her ever-growing following.
The TV personality talks candidly about everything from her home to her pregnancies, as well as other personal details.
The proud mother has two older children, Zachary, 12, and Leighton, 9, from previous relationships, as well as a newborn baby Rose and a two-year-old boy Rex, whom she shares with her soon-to-be husband Joe Swash.

Legit.ng earlier reported that Lionheart was presented as the movie selected by the Nigerian Oscars Selection Committee (NOSC) for consideration under the International Feature Film category of the Oscars in year 2020.
Interestingly, Lionheart is the first Nigerian movie to be selected by the committee for consideration by the Oscars and Genevieve has expressed her gratitude at this great feat.
In an Instagram post, she wrote: "The Nigerian Oscar Selection Committee has chosen @lionheartthemovie to represent Nigeria for the 2020 Academy Award for Best International Film! This is the first entry ever for Nigeria. It’s an honor to be a part of such a pivotal moment in the history of Nigerian cinema. A moment we know will be replicated as our stories continue to resonate with audiences around the world.

See her post below:
In other news, Legit.ng reported that after the news of Lionheart making it for Oscars consideration, some Nigerians on social media compared it with another blockbuster movie by Kemi Adetiba titled King of Boys.
While some Nigerians are of the opinion that Lionheart is an overhyped movie, others disagree.
Some other Nigerians also compared King of Boys to Lionheart as they feel the former should have more recognition and international appeal because according to them, it perfectly mirrored the Nigerian society.

Last week, an article on the first page of the New York Times announced that Michelangelo is out and Caravaggio is in. Of course, we don’t have to read it to know that Michelangelo will never be out, but the idea that Caravaggio is in is great news. I am weary of blank looks when I mention his name. And I am encouraged that if Caravaggio is in, maybe Artemisia Gentileschi is not far behind. I let her write her memoir in my Daughters of Eve, a Herstory Book and she expressed her admiration for Caravaggio and admitted his influence on her work. She swore to paint women the way he painted men. She did, but only after she was raped. Does it take a great jolt to make a woman go in search of what she can be? To make her reach heights otherwise never considered?

On Thursday, London was awash in red, white, and blue as massive crowds went to the city to watch the Queen and her family honour the Platinum Jubilee.
The area around Buckingham Palace and nearby St James’ Park was filled with local and foreign tourists, some of whom had camped out overnight to attend the opening event of the four-day weekend festivities.
And the monarch certainly lived up to her reputation as a faithful crowd-pleaser after 70 years on the throne. She may not have been up to the ceremonial function of riding a horse as part of Trooping the Colour at the age of 96, but she did emerge on Buckingham Palace’s famed balcony following the military parade to tremendous applause.
The Queen smiled as she took the salute as soldiers and officers returned from Horse Guards Parade during Trooping the Colour. She was dressed in a dusky dove blue Angela Kelly costume with matching hat.
The “great military performance” entailed “months of training and centuries of history,” as well as 1,500 soldiers and commanders, 400 musicians, 250 horses, and 70 planes, according to the UK Ministry of Defence.
The heir to the throne, Prince Charles, represented his mother in the ceremonial role that she has historically performed. His sister Princess Anne and his son, Prince William, went alongside him on horseback.
Other members of the royal family, including Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, who was accompanied by her three children, and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, rode down The Mall in carriages to the parade area.
Other royals watched from the Major General’s Office adjacent while the Colour of the Irish Guards was trooped at Horse Guards Parade, during which military bands played in formation and undertook a complex movement known as “the spinwheel.”
The Queen arrived on the balcony of Buckingham Palace with her cousin, the Duke of Kent, a little time later.
During the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee celebrations on Thursday, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall rides in a carriage with Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge and her family.
She was joined by three of her four children, as well as numerous family members, in a second balcony appearance. The Queen ordered last month that only royals doing official responsibilities would be allowed on the balcony, thus Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex did not appear.
The Sussexes, on the other hand, had watched the Trooping of the Colour with other royals from the Major General’s office at Horse Guards Parade earlier in the day, in their first public appearance with the royal family since they left their jobs as royals two years ago.
Prince Andrew, who was stripped of royal duties and his HRH title in January following his civil sexual assault case in the United States, did not appear on the balcony due to the Queen’s choice to only invite working royals. He will not be attending Friday’s thanksgiving service at St Paul’s Cathedral with his family since he has tested positive for coronavirus. CNN was informed by a royal source. The duke had visited his mother in the previous three days, but he has been undergoing regular testing and has not seen her since he was found to be positive.
The stunning RAF flypast, an awe-inspiring air show comprising 70 aircraft, including the Red Arrows, was the highlight of the proceedings for many.
The 4-year-old Prince Louis, on the other hand, did not appear to be impressed with the show. As the spectacle to honour his great-70 grandmother’s years on the monarchy proved a little much, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s youngest child was photographed holding his hands over his ears and drawing faces. Nonetheless, his family appeared unconcerned about Prince Louis’ failure to follow etiquette, smiling and chatting with one another as the jets continued to fly — even forming a formation to represent the number 70 at one point.
Over 3,000 beacons will be lit later across the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, and UK Overseas Territories. At Buckingham Palace, the main beacon will be illuminated in a special ceremony. Beacons are lit to commemorate royal occasions such as jubilees, weddings, and coronations. In the capital cities of Commonwealth countries, beacons will be illuminated as well.

The University of New South Wales has announced plans to offer spots to top students from disadvantaged schools - regardless of their ATAR score.
The most comes as part of a push to have increased socio-economic diversity in the university cohorts, with 1000 spots up for grabs.
UNSW research shows that some students from disadvantaged schools were achieving ATARs significantly lower than the cut-off - and then performed just as well as other students in the university coursework.
"We don't want to be a university for the privileged few," vice-chancellor Professor Ian Jacobs told SMH.
"We want to be a university where anyone of talent can get the full benefits that the University of NSW can provide."

Instead of waiting in her tower, Rapunzel slices off her long, golden hair with a carving knife, and then uses it to climb down to freedom.
Just as she’s about to take the poison apple, Snow White sees the familiar wicked glow in the old lady’s eyes, and slashes the evil queen’s throat with a pair of sewing scissors.
Cinderella refuses everything but the glass slippers from her fairy godmother, crushes her stepmother’s windpipe under her heel, and the Prince falls madly in love with the mysterious girl who dons rags and blood-stained slippers.
Persephone goes adventuring with weapons hidden under her dress.
Persephone climbs into the gaping chasm.
Or, Persephone uses her hands to carve a hole down to hell.
In none of these versions is Persephone’s body violated unless she asks Hades to hold her down with his horse-whips.
Not once does she hold out on eating the pomegranate, instead biting into it eagerly and relishing the juice running down her chin, staining it red.
In some of the stories, Hades never appears and Persephone rules the underworld with a crown of her own making.
In all of them, it is widely known that the name Persephone means Bringer of Destruction.
Red Riding Hood marches from her grandmother’s house with a bloody wolf pelt.
Medusa rights the wrongs that have been done to her.
Eurydice breaks every muscle in her arms climbing out of the land of the dead.

Instead of the dragon, it’s the princess with claws and fiery breath
who smashes her way from the confines of her castle
and swallows men whole.
really sick of seeing so much hate directed towards the police on here. look, we get it, you prefer sting’s solo work, i like it too alright? that doesnt mean ‘every little thing she does is magic’ and ‘can’t stand losing you’ arent awesome jams. ‘roxanne’ and ‘don’t stand so close to me’ are classic, don’t even get me started on ‘spirits in the material world’. just stop ok?

M*A*S*H rewatch: 2x03 - ’Radar’s Report’
“Cutting up a nurse is bad enough, but why the hell did he have to louse up my patient?”
I usually don’t add comments but I feel like we really need to talk about this show and how ahead of its time it was. These doctors helped anyone who came through, even ‘the enemy’ regardless of what the higher-ups would think. They confronted serious issues that are still relevant today like sexism, racism and homophobia.
Keep in mind that this was the early 70’s-80’s too. The writers had an incredibly hard time even getting the show on the air because of the way it often showed the military in a bad way, and represented people that weren’t white (even though the show had its fair share of middle aged white guys). And while it’s been some time since I’ve watched the show, I do remember how well they represented a diverse group of people. They had complex, well-written POC that were rarely stereotyped. They had a FANTASTIC female lead whose character development blows my mind. They had openly gay characters. They even had a cross dressing male character (although he could be problematic at times)
While I’m not saying that the show was never offensive (it had its moments), it was so ahead of its time in the way it focused on the major social issues of its time that are still present today. It’s powerful, well-written and just an overall amazing show that I’d recommend to anyone.
This is Chester. When I was in Afghanistan I got a care package from one of those “Adopt a Soldier” programs that lets families send care packages to service men and women who are deployed overseas. Anyway, I got this care package, and it came with the usual stuff: Baby wipes, crackers, peanut butter, the Dad threw in a pack of cigarettes, and there was some jerky. But there was also a little beanie baby gold fish and a hand written note from a 7 year old girl that said
“Dear Soldier, (I wasn’t even mad)
I hope you are doing well. I’m sorry you have to miss thanksgiving with your family. This is my friend Chester. He keeps me safe from monsters, but I think you need him more than I do. I hope he keeps you safe from the monsters you’re fighting. Take good care of him for me”.
You bet your ass that little fish was in my pocket every time I went on patrol.
To wake up from that after, after years, after decades… after we’d become old souls thrown back into youth like that… I knew something was wrong with her. She just wouldn’t admit it. Eventually, she told me the truth. She was possessed by an idea, this one, very simple idea, that changed everything. That our world wasn’t real. That she needed to wake up to come back to reality, that, in order to get back home, we had to kill ourselves.

Holy shit Hermann smashing the table with his cane and Newt twirling his shirt i’M DYING


PAUL MCCARTNEY is thrilled his late wife’s photographs are going on show in Glasgow.
On July 5, The Linda McCartney Retrospective will be staged at Kelvingrove Art Gallery.
He first met Linda on May 15 1967, at a Georgie Fame gig in the Bag O’Nails club in London.
Linda was on assignment for a book called Rock And Other Four Letter Words, taking pictures of “swinging London”.
“She passed our table and I was blocking her exit,” said Paul in Many Years From Now, his autobiography.
“I introduced myself and said, ‘We’re going to another club, would you like to join us?’ That was my big pulling line. But it worked.”
Romance blossomed and the couple married two years later. They had three children – Mary,
Stella and James – and Paul adopted Heather, Linda’s daughter from a previous marriage.
It’s said they only spent six nights apart during their happy 29-year marriage.
Linda was also a prominent animal rights activist. She launched her own vegetarian food range and wrote several best-selling veggie cook books. She died from breast cancer in 1998.
“I met Linda early in her career. I saw her photos essentially when we started going out together. I knew her work inside out,” said Paul.
“So it’s lovely it’s being exhibited in Glasgow. Linda would have loved it too as she always loved the town.
“We drove through Glasgow a lot while we were going down to our house in the Mull of Kintyre.
We were very familiar with the route from to Glasgow then down to Argyll.
“We did that journey a lot of times. Linda would be very proud to be having an exhibition at Kelvingrove.”

NEW YORK (AP) — New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s team is saying that everyone shares responsibility for public safety amid a report that the mayor’s official SUVs have broken several traffic laws.
WCBS-TV released video footage Thursday of the mayor’s two-SUV caravan speeding, running through two stop signs and not signaling when changing lanes.
That comes just two days after de Blasio outlined his traffic safety plan, which includes a proposal to lower the citywide speed limit.
De Blasio’s press secretary, Phil Walzak, says the mayor is “firmly committed” to the traffic safety plan, but did not comment directly on the video footage. Instead, he referred questions related to security and transportation to the NYPD.
The SUVs were driven by members of the NYPD on de Blasio’s security team.
The NYPD released a statement saying the drivers receive “specialized training” in terms of maintaining the mayor’s security while driving.

21 years in the puzzle palace: School district employee keeps events calendar humming
FAIRBANKS — With the recent start of the school year, there’s plenty of attention on the interaction students have with teachers, principals, bus drivers and cafeteria workers, but that’s not to mention the countless efforts that go on behind the scenes at the Fairbanks North Star Borough School District.
One of the employees who has done her best to make sure her part of the district has run smoothly for more than 21 years is Velma Vargo, the 58-year-old administrative secretary charged with juggling the hundreds of events and activities scheduled throughout the school district.
The district rents its gyms and activity rooms to the public at a deep hourly discount and Vargo works with the public, as well as youth and adult recreational groups to find the right school district facility to host the event as well as fit it in with a myriad of school-sponsored sports, plays and science fairs.
“It sounds boring doesn’t it?” she said. “But I never know what someone’s going to ask me and I have try to figure out a place to do it. It’s like a giant jigsaw puzzle. It’s just a real challenge to help figure how to make the events happen and a lot of times the community member doesn’t know how they want to do it.”Read full article

Abstract: This NORRAG Highlights is written by guest-author Simon McGrath, UNESCO Chair in International Education and Development at the University of Nottingham. Vocational Education & Training (VET) in Africa has been heavily criticized for its ineffective job production and lack of sustainability. The author proposes “VET 4.0”: a new system which considers multiple sectors, the climate crisis, and youth agency.
Vocational education and training in Africa since independence has gone through three phases, linked to post-independence industrialisation, basic needs and neoliberalism. It currently sits with no real, credible vision of where it is going. From the right, it is criticised as it does not produce jobs for the growing African youth population, whilst the left reminds us that VET cannot produce jobs but merely supports their creation if other factors are in place. Even where there has been economic growth in Africa this millennium, decent jobs have no followed in its wake. More seriously, there is an emerging environmental critique that argues that VET is inevitably implicated in carbon capitalism and is not set up to deliver skills for sustainable futures.
Is there any hope for VET in Africa then? With an increasing number of colleagues, I believe that there is, that we need a VET Africa 4.0. This requires a radically different theoretical approach and political imaginary that is grounded in both the lived experiences and material conditions of those learning vocationally, and genuine labour market and livelihood possibilities that reflect the desperate need for just transitions. It requires also a far greater sense of the agency of individuals and the possibilities of collective aspirations and actions, whilst remaining aware of structural injustices and power imbalances. It sees both vocational learning and work in broad terms, avoiding narrowing the relationship to a consideration of public VET for formal sector employment.
We suggest some ways forward. One of these is the well-established political economy of skills tradition, already well-represented in the literature on African VET. However, this has been too focused on the nation state as the unit of analysis. This leads to the need to build a multiscalar approach that acknowledges the importance of sectoral and place-based dynamics, which are often intersecting. To Africanise this account, it is also necessary to bring in more of the informal sector, and community and rural dimensions.
The environmental crisis means we need to become more focused on skills development for just transitions. Where the political economy tradition generally provides a broad-brushed critique of failures in both VET and industrialisation, a just transitions perspective is needed that can focus on what types of skills, work and industries need to develop if the climate crisis is to be overcome.
Equally, we draw on emergent African approaches to research in VET and community development; on the critical capabilities approach that focuses on youth and their aspirations; on relational skills; and the ways in which history has shaped negative attitudes towards vocational education. Such accounts stress the possibilities of a VET that has more of a sense of agency, solidarity and non-economic rationales. Across these accounts too there is an emphasis on what knowledges are afforded economic and social status, and which pedagogies best support effective, inclusive vocational learning.
What emerges from this set of accounts is an agreement that we need more critical understandings of how VET is supporting individuals, communities, firms and countries to find new ways of becoming more productive at the same time as delivering on decent work, sustainable livelihoods and just transitions. This requires better conceptualisations of economies and labour markets at different scales and in different settings, including rural and informal urban, as well as industrial. Together, these accounts point to the need to look more into how individuals and communities form aspirations about how productive work supports better lives and what place vocational learning can play in this. However, they also point towards the necessity of understanding how attitudes of learners, parents and employers are shaped both by economic signals and by their perceptions about the value of different forms of learning, knowledge and qualifications. Some of these accounts raise important questions about how both VET’s current status and potential to play a transformative role are dependent on issues of knowledge and learning and how these are structured by the effects of power.

Maryland bills would loosen state’s strict divorce requirements
Measure would scrap Maryland’s one-year waiting period for divorce
A number of bills currently before Maryland lawmakers would loosen the requirements for getting a divorce in the state, according to the Frederick News-Post. One of the proposed measures would do away with the current one-year waiting period that is required for many divorces in Maryland. The other proposal effects only limited divorces, which are somewhat uncommon, but could help victims of spousal abuse get out of troubled relationships. Supporters of the bills say they will help bring divorce law in Maryland up to date.
Need for change
Maryland is widely considered to have some of the strictest divorce laws in the country. Most couples in the state who are looking to divorce must first live apart for a year before they can begin divorce proceedings. According to the Baltimore Sun, the one-year waiting period can currently only be bypassed when abuse or adultery occurred in the marriage, one of the spouses has a serious criminal conviction, or in cases of year-long desertion.
Critics of the current law say that forcing people to wait a year to get divorced can cause serious problems. Waiting for divorce proceedings to begin means that dividing marital property also has to be put off, which can prove costly and stressful for couples who need to sell a home, for example, and divide the proceeds quickly.
Bypass the waiting period
A bill currently working through the state legislature, however, would largely do away with the one-year waiting period for many divorcing couples. If the bill passes, couples who agree on matters such as alimony, childcare, and property division would be able to bypass the waiting period. Such an agreement would also have to be independently reviewed to make sure the agreement is in the best interests of any children the divorcing couple may have.
Another bill has also been put forward that would do away with the requirement for each spouse in a limited divorce to prove that their separation is voluntary and that they cannot reconcile. While limited divorces are relatively uncommon, doing away with the requirements could help people in abusive relationships get out of such relationships more easily.
With divorce law in Maryland in flux, it is important to make sure that one’s own family law concerns are handled by someone who has the very best qualifications and experience to understand the latest legal developments. An expert family law attorney can assist anyone who is planning on or going through a divorce understand what their best options may be and what to expect in the days and months ahead.

text: On Monday’s Backchat, walking the walk. the Government is looking at plans to remove traffic from some streets in Central and Shamshiupo as part of its ‘Walk in HK’ initative. This would include part time pedestrian areas in Soho including Hollywood Road, as well as more walking space in Des Voeux Road and Queen’s Road. Traffic in Sham Shui Po would be slowed down for better road safety. What do you think of the ideas, and in general how would you improve pedestrian experience ? Can we have a car free zone without pop up banners and loudspeakers? After a stream of accidents involving pedestrians, do we need more railings in congested areas to keep cars and people apart?

3 1/2 YEARS OLD
$350 TO ADOPT
This is Bentley the very handsome 3 1/2 yr old purebred Dalmatian. The best word to describe Bentley is active, and he will need a forever home committed to exercising and playing with him. He is also mad for a ball. Due to his size, energy and complete lack of spatial awareness he would be best suited to a home with children over 10 years old. He knows basic commands and is generally very obedient but a bit scatty like most Dalmatians. He would suit someone who is kind, caring but firm and experienced in owning a dog. The key to Bentley’s heart is through his stomach, he a bit shy at first but after a meal or two he loves whom ever feeds him! He is available now to adopt to the right home not the first home.
Bentley is desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea & tick treated, vet checked and wormed. Call 0409 184 685 between 9am-4pm daily to meet him.
To adopt you will need photo ID, proof of residence, as in a current rates notice or a rental agreement showing approval to have animals, as well as vaccination records for any current pets you may already own.

In medicine, the primary issue is how to maximize patient outcomes by delivering effective medical services (Aiken, 2014). This is highly dependent on the level of treatment patients receive in medical facilities, which is determined by a variety of factors ranging from the recipient’s perspective to the provider’s perspective. The majority of research has focused on patient outcomes in terms of the quality of health care offered. The PICO question in this paper is whether a 1:3 nurse-patient ratio or a 1:6 nurse-patient ratio improves patient outcomes in the long run. From the PICO question, the problem is patient outcomes, intervention increasing nurse-patient ratios, comparison not increasing the nurse-patient ratios and the outcome of interest is increased patient outcomes. The paper is based on the analysis of the results of studies done to determine the relationship between nurse-patient ratios and patient outcomes.
Background of Studies
A significant number of these studies were conducted as a result of inadequate studies done regarding the topic; most researchers generalized the quality of healthcare and hardly expounded on the role played by various nurse staffing levels on the quality of care. Its impact on the healthcare system has clearly been taken for granted when according to the results summarized below; the former influences the effectiveness of the medicine field (Minnesota Department of Health, 2015). These studies therefore, show how increasing the nurse-patient ratios affects safety outcomes and some of them also do a cost-benefit analysis to determine the impact in the long run (Penoyer, 2010). They also emphasize the fact that factors such as patient acuity and morbidity rates should be considered while designing nurse staffing models (Mark, 2011).
Methods of Studies
They mostly included quantitative data retrieved from nearby health facilities’ records and observations by researchers (Minnesota Department of Health, 2015). Quantitative data was used in some studies to compare the accuracy of the information portrayed in the medical records. This ensured that the data collected was feasible and not exaggerated/underrepresented. The timeframe was also considered by collecting records within the past years to capture changes in the nurse staffing models used.
Results of Studies
Studies show that increasing nurse-patient ratios improved patient outcomes (Kutney-Lee, 2013). This was however, dependent on nurses’ attributes and qualifications and the level of patient acuity (Aiken, 2011). The more tolerant the nurse was, the more effective the nurse staffing model was (Bradshaw, 2011). Patient acuity on the other hand was different in each patient and the nurse staffing model was more efficient if patients’ conditions were considered; increasing nurse-patient ratio is futile if nurses do not provide undivided attention to individuals suffering from chronic illnesses and other severe conditions (Anderson, 2014). This does not imply that some patients should receive special attention than others; nurses should be keen to notice patients requiring frequent follow ups and medications (Bae, 2014). Nurse staffing models are determined by administrators and other stakeholders of medical institutions. Some may decide to lower the nurse-patient ratio to cut down on costs in terms of remuneration and employee packages. This may lower costs in the long run but deteriorating patient outcomes may discourage potential investors and the medical center end up having lower or no profit margins. Increasing the nurse-patient ratio ensures that each patient’s needs are met to reduce or if possible eliminate medication errors and as a result improve patient outcomes (Shekelle, 2013).
Nurse staffing is a key concept in nursing practice since it contributes to the performance of medical practitioners if factors such as their qualifications and patients’ acuity are considered. Nurses should be educated and trained on the effective nursing skills to increase the effectiveness of improving nurse staffing models. Increasing the nurse-patient ratio in health facilities will enable the health sector to meet its goal of providing affordable and high quality health services.

Evanston voters will face two ballot questions next month about the fate of the Civic Center after all.
Cook County Circuit Judge Susan Fox Gillis today rejected arguments by members of the Friends of the Civic Center group that a City Council-sponsored referendum would confuse voters and should be removed from the ballot.
The council’s proposal pegs the price of rehabbing the Civic Center at $31 million. The Friends group gatheredÂ more than 2,000 petition signatures to place aÂ question on the ballot that urges aldermen to maintain the existing building as the headquarters of city government, without specifying a price tag.
In its answer to the residents’ complaint, the city provided a summary of five alternative scenarios for a new Civic Center developed by city consultant U.S. Equities.
The proposals listed include building on a Northwestern University-owned parking lot on University Place that’s now used for the Farmers Market, building on a city-owned parking lot on Chicago Avenue near the main public library, buying and rehabbing for city use part of the office and retail complexÂ managedÂ by Golub & Company at 1603 and 1629 Orrington Ave., building a new Civic Center on the existing site and rehabbing most of the existing building while tearing down and replacingÂ its original 1901-wing.
Four of the five scenarios involve using land that is already tax exempt and thus show no tax impact from removing property from the property tax rolls.
The new construction scenarios all envision a construction cost of about $250 per square foot for a 90,000 square foot building, excluding the cost of land.
John Kennedy, an organizer of the Friends group, has argued actual construction costs would be much higher. He says a just-completed new city hall in Arlington Heights cost $400 per square foot.
Mr. Kennedy also contends that the consultant exaggerated the cost of renovating the existing building.
TheÂ consultant’s document also assumes thatÂ the cityÂ would be able to sell the existing Civic Center site for almost $12.7 million and that it could generate from new housing that might be built on the site incremental tax revenue worth nearly $25.4 million over the 23-year life of a Tax Increment Financing district.
The consultant’s report was prepared before recent proposals were made suggesting moving the Civic Center to sites on Evanston’s west side.

PhotoPlus Expo 2012: CineMoco Motorized Camera Dolly Gives You Hands-Free Movement Shots for Video and Time-Lapse Photography
Fresh off the success of his popular CineSkates HD-DSLR dolly system from last year, inventor Justin Jensen of Cinetics was at PhotoPlus Expo this week showing off his latest product: CineMoco, which is a compact, motorized dolly and slider for shooting video and time-lapse photography.
Think of it as CineSkates with a brain.
Like CineSkates, CineMoco started as a Kickstarter project and easily blew past its pledge goal. The Kickstarter goal for CineMoco was $50,000 but, at the time of this writing (with just eight hours left in the Kickstarter campaign), the product had received nearly $103,000 in pledges.
While the appeal of CineSkates was it simplicity (three skate-like wheels that attach to a tripod to turn it into a dolly), the modular CineMoco system is a much more sophisticated product.
It includes the SkatePlate to mount your HD-DSLR onto; the SkateTrack rail system for tracking shots; the new V wheels (though it also works with the old CineSkates wheels as well); and the CineMoco itself, which is the computerized brain that automates smooth, repeatable movements of the dolly for videos and for shooting images between moves for time-lapse photography.
The software that comes with the CineMoco is open-source and Jensen hopes photographers and cinematographers will write their own scripts for the motorized dolly and share them to create a library of pre-programmed movement shots.
Official pricing hasn’t been set yet since the CineMoco is just coming out of Kickstarter but the basic CineMoco Dolly set-up (which includes the CineMoco, SkatePlate, and V wheels) was being offered for a $495 pledge, while the CineMoco Slider (which adds the SkateTrack and travel bags) was going for $795.
