In 1990, Atlanta’s per capita income was below that of its metro area. But in 2004, after years of encouraging professionals to move to the city’s downtown and neighborhoods, its per capita income was 28 percent higher than its metro area. The New York Times (3/11/06) reports that this shift was the largest in the nation. The majority black city is changing in other ways as more affluent whites move in, “reclaim” blighted communities and displace lower-income African Americans. The percentage of black residents of Atlanta dropped from 67 in 1990 to 54 in 2004. Many fear that the culture and character of this city will change, and not for the better.
What’s happening in Atlanta is happening in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast, only in an accelerated way. How it plays out will depend on whose voice is heard loudest – the rich and powerful or the poor and working class.
Over the next year, Shelterforce will look at the direct consequences of Hurricane Katrina and what it means for community development as a whole. We’ll examine more closely the housing story and the fate of tenants (who are notably absent in most of the area’s recovery programs), take a look at the role of CDCs and their limited capacity in the Gulf Coast and in the South and examine the politics of the Diaspora in New Orleans. Will it turn into the “whiter city” predicted by HUD Secretary Jackson, or will it remain a “chocolate” city as Mayor Nagin assured an audience recently. In this issue, we present a group of articles that provide an overview of the politics, planning and organizing that preceded and followed the hurricane.
We open with Peter Dreier’s analysis of the political disaster. By now, we’ve seen President Bush’s shirt-sleeved stage show, promising to do everything possible to bring New Orleans back. But six months later, an administration determined to dismantle domestic government agencies and hostile to the very real needs of poor and working-class Americans, has done too little and too late. Dreier helps us understand why government agencies that were successful in past disasters have been so incompetent in this one.
Dreier also reminds us that, if there is a single remedy to the ideology of greed and disdain, it is the organized voice of the people. Champions of that voice are the organizing networks active in the region, such as IAF, PICO and ACORN. Miriam Axel-Lute tells us how these national and local networks responded to the immediate crises, providing needed food, shelter and communications. She also examines the long-term issues the networks now face, from organizing a Diaspora, to connecting local problems to national political action.
If the region is to be rebuilt in an equitable way, the people’s voice will need to be an integral part of any redevelopment plans, such as those proposed by the Urban Land Institute in New Orleans. Ken Reardon takes a look at that plan and the mayor’s plan for the city’s rebuilding, and finds them lacking. The plans will work fine for the relatively unscathed and affluent areas of the city, but they provide very little opportunity to hear the voices of the lower-income African-American households who lived in the heavily damaged areas.
Whatever the long-range plans are, however, work needs to be done right now. As is often the case, such work is done by nonprofit, community-based organizations. Aggressively stepping into the area are the national intermediaries – LISC and Enterprise – and NeighborWorks America. Catherine Smith tells us how they’ve grown their collaborations within the region and are attempting to deal with two major issues – the lack of nonprofit infrastructure and the overwhelming devastation that will need far more resources than most nonprofits are able to muster.
Indeed, getting those resources will be a challenge. And having those resources targeted to the people whose needs were never a priority of this administration, will be even harder. Just take a look at the FY2007 budget request. Most of the money to be spent in the rebuilding will benefit the well-off and connected, and much of it will be paid for by cutting benefits – housing, healthcare, education – to the poor and working class. For clear and painful analyses of the administration’s budget request and its effect on Katrina survivors, see the Web sites of the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities (cbpp.org) and the National Low Income Housing Coalition (nlihc.org).
Also in this issue, Alex Salazar tells us about a downtown Oakland housing development aimed at stemming the gentrification being encouraged by the city’s mayor. Committed to grassroots organizing, Salazar sees his work as not an end in itself but as a tool in service to the voice of the community. It’s only when the voice of the community is raised, that real change – from housing developments to equitable recovery to responsive government – is possible.

Money and Mental Health
Are you living with financial stress?
A Bankrate article titled: Bad Credit Affects Mental Health, recently caught my eye. Here are some of the things that I learned. Nearly half of all people who have debt problems also have mental health problems. 86% of people with mental health issues said their problems were made worse by their financial condition. Money’s often a source of arguing and tension in relationships. If you’ve ever experienced financial stress, you know how intense it can be. Spending money can temporarily relieve stress, but when overspending becomes compulsive, it impacts mental health and leads to greater debt. Sometimes financial issues are beyond our control. but if you know that overspending has led to your problems, confess it, repent, and then make a plan.
Financial coach, Kristin Lobenstein says, “People who feel financially stable perform better at work and feel more confident when interviewing and interacting with others.” She also says, “Partnered people who have open conversations about money are happier in their relationships.” Debt and bad credit can make life difficult from both a financial and a mental health perspective. Assuming responsibility and taking action will grant purpose and hope. Begin with prayer. Ask God to help you stop borrowing and live on a budget. This will help you eliminate debt, spend wisely, save, and give. The debt snowball and debt avalanche are two methods to pay off debt faster with less interest. Research both and choose one. Humbly approach your lenders and seek to negotiate better terms, and most importantly, commit your plan to the Lord. He can work miracles.

Since we worked so hard yesterday, today was going to be a tourist day. We started out by heading to Cripple Creek. This is a town way up in the mountains. It was known for its gold mines way back in the 1800's. Now its mainly a casino town. There were no neat shops and touristy stuff in this town, just casinos. I have never seen so many slot machines, of course I guess besides Vegas. We weren't there to gamble so we checked out the museum and a few other sites. Problem was they didn't open up until after Memorial Day. So our trip there was mainly eat some lunch and head back down the mountain. There was a gold mine shaft tour but you had to go 1000 feet underground to see it and us claustrophobic people decided that wouldn't be a good thing to do.
After getting back down the mountain we wanted to find the place where you take the Cog Train up to the top of Pikes Peak. (That's the plan for tomorrow, unless the weather doesn't cooperate.) We were in the town of Manitou Springs and saw this place called Miramont Castle so we toured that. Interesting place but I wanted to touch stuff and they won't let you. Whats up with that.
This town had so many old buildings from back in the 1800's. This one was called the Barker house and was built in 1872. It was converted into a hotel but now is a retirement home with a restaurant in one end.
What better way to end the day than with an ice cream cone. Did I mention how great the weather has been? Heard Wisconsin got some more snow. Sorry we weren't there to enjoy the white stuff. NOT!

Review from Jake. THE JUKER
Update the game please. I wish you could to update paid game to 126.96.36.199... Like free version. Edit: Also DID I JUST SPEND MONEY FOR NOTHING??
I wish.... You created a popular classic mobile game and you just abandoned creativity all in all????? I loved this since it came out but... If this game was mine i would make lots of updates ,1000of new blades and backgrounds and just find other ways to make it more interesting ,and bring something to look forward to for the players that had the game for yeaaaaars. Youve put up the challangers for awhile now they are also gone.not that it was the best thing,but it was SOMEthing...
Good game but... ... but I lost a blade I bought after a hard rest and they never cared to even answer my e-mail. Don't ever use the IAP option, sooner or later you'll regret it. That said the game is as good as it used to be, even though there are graphical bugs
Great game! Awesome game have been waiting for a while. On desire. Just a little slow on tracking and needs dual finger input. UPDATE: on Samsung Galaxy SIII and just amazing.UPDATE 2: they update the free version, but not the paid version...please tell me the logic of that?
What can I say about this game that hasn't already been said? Fluent controls, exciting gameplay, and simple but effective interface. Really the only flaw I have is that the mission "Zen: Slice every fruit in a single game" doesn't work, so I have to skip it every time it shows up. But besides that, this game is fantastic!
Had stopped working crashes on loading and closes other apps such as music apps when crashing. Got plenty of room and ram on phone and tried moving to and from a quick SD card to internal storage and nothing. Please fix asap it's a good app I like and I want to put my rating up to 5 again
Closed before opening I don't know why but I can't even open the app. Both paid and free versions. I tap the icon and it pops up saying the game has closed. I've reported the issue but nothing has changed. Has anyone else had this problem?
The new Ghostbusters™ movie is here! Are you ready to bust some fruit?!
NEW BLADE – Proton Pack? Bet it’s got nothing on the Ghostbusters™ Proton Blade. Draw an ‘X’ to cross the streams and spawn energy traps!
NEW DOJO – Ghosts have frozen all the fruit! Return to NYC and test your skills against the greatest menace the city has ever faced!

Minnesota officials announced a multi-step strategy to address PFAS contamination in the environment. Referred to as Minnesota’s PFAS blueprint, the plan will focus on three goals: to prevent PFAS pollution, to manage sources of already occurring PFAS, and to clean up contamination. The blueprint would add all PFAS to the state’s hazardous substance list and require all companies to report any use of the man-made chemicals.
“These forever chemicals are everywhere,” said Laura Bishop, commissioner with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, at the blueprint release. “And new PFAS are being invented, used in industry and incorporated into commercial products, and released into the environment every day. The gaps in our understanding of the effects of PFAS on human health and the environment is one of the primary reasons Minnesota needs a coordinated, strategic approach to PFAS.”
The plan focuses primarily on pollution prevention, either by restricting the production of PFAS or by banning the substances entirely. Within two years, Minnesota plans to monitor groundwater in active landfills, enact statewide water quality standards, and dispose of firefighting foam containing PFAS. In the longer term, Minnesota wants to aid companies in transitioning away from PFAS substances, mandate that companies report air emissions of PFAS, and study the health effects of people exposed to contaminated water.
The proposal to add PFAS to the hazardous substances list would give the state more funding for cleanup due to the “polluter pays” provision, which requires those responsible for pollution to pay for damages. Minnesota would be the first state to add PFAS to its hazardous substances list, which, in Minnesota, also includes lead, arsenic, and acids.
“Chemicals like PFAS in our water threaten our public health, wildlife, our beloved Minnesota environment, and our economy,” said State Sen. Jennifer McEwen. “This is a major challenge that we must address as policymakers.”
PFAS, which are found in food packaging, water-repellent fabrics, nonstick pans, and some cosmetics, contaminate water, land, and air. In Minnesota, there are a number of contaminated sites, most notably in the city of Cottage Grove, where 3M manufactured and dumped PFAS for decades. PFAS have also been found in surface water around the Duluth International Airport, in Lake Elmo fish in Washington County, and in Bemidji, where drinking water was contaminated by firefighting foams.
The CDC has linked PFAS to an increased risk of kidney and testicular cancer, thyroid disease, and liver damage.

History professors Ling Zhang and Stacie Kent, as well as sociology professor Charles Derber presented as part of a panel on “An Unholy Trinity of Oppression: Colonization, Capitalism, and Race,” hosted by FACES at Boston College on Thursday.
Larissa Truchan, MCAS ‘21, and An Nguyen, MCAS ‘22, the event planners for FACES, moderated the panel. Both introduced the event by explaining the definitions of racism, colonialism, and capitalism that would be used in the discussion.
Racism involves both prejudice and systemic power.
“Prejudice is when we judge someone else, assuming something without knowing all the relevant facts,” Nguyen said.
“Another part of racism is systemic power,” continued Nguyen. “Racism is a system that our country was built on, and all of our institutions are created by it.”
This systemic power is reinforced by the institutions that were created through racism, and help to keep the racial majority in power. Racism is “two-fold,” including both prejudice and systemic power.
“By 1914, a large majority of the world had been colonized by Europe, over 75%,” Nguyen transitioned to the subject of colonialism.
Colonialism involves one nation controlling or acquiring the political power of another nation. The colonizing nation takes over the land and culture of the indigenous people because the colonizers believe only they know how to properly use these resources. The motivation of colonization is exploitation, with the resources of the colony being used to benefit the colonizing nation.
“Slavery and colonialism intersect and interlock to make the European nations that were involved even more powerful,” Nguyen said.
Colonialism affects the world today by valuing certain cultures above others. It is also present in the way military intervention is used.
“We are standing on land stolen from the Wampanoag nation,” Nguyen reminded audience members, before the panel transitioned to capitalism.
“The definition that we’re [FACES] using is when the production of goods and services is done for the sake of profit and is in private hands,” Truchan defined.
Karl Marx’s ideal version of a market is where a person has a product, sells the product, buys a new product, and the cycle repeats. The exchange goes product, money, product.
However, in a capitalist market the exchange starts with money, which a person invests in a product, and then makes more money. In this market the exchange is money, product, money.
“In capitalism, there is no responsibility. The goal is to make profit and only benefit the capitalist from making that profit,” Truchan said.
After defining the terms of the discussion, FACES invited the BC professors to share more about their biographies, as well as their reasons for joining the panel. All three panelists talked about the classes they would be teaching next semester.
Zhang spoke of the change between colonialism of the past, which emphasised the visible power dynamics of a master slave economy, to the invisible colonialism of the present. The colonialism of today is traceless, promoting a complete lack of responsibility.
Derber answered a question on the connection between race and capitalism in the criminal justice system, by explaining the capitalist theory that underpins it. Derber used the metaphor of an upstairs and a downstairs house. Capitalism is supposed to make sure that through a meritocracy, people in the downstairs can work their way to the upstairs.
“The problem becomes when the stairs narrow,” he said.
In order to keep the downstairs from banding together, the upstairs divides the downstairs based on race. The upstairs then prevents class solidarity by introducing hyper-nationalism to divide the downstairs into distinct countries that are further divided by race.
The moderators asked Kent, “How would you describe the role of capitalism and racism in amplifying the American opioid epidemic?”
“The idea here is that the pharmaceutical companies make money by growing markets for drugs,” Kent explained.
These markets include complex relationships between how we understand pain, how we understand patient-doctor relationships, and the relationship between doctors and the pharmaceutical agency.
“How is pain understood in our country, such that opioids are the solution for it?” Kent asked.
All three professors agreed that the “unholy alliance” between capitalism, colonialism, and racism is still functioning in our society.

Let’s get ready to Taaaannnngooooo!
Last night on “Dance War”, ABC unveiled the cast of the next “Dancing with the Stars”. As usual, it’s a mixed bag of actors, athletes and personalities most of whom will leave the average viewer saying, “who?”
Let’s take a look.
- Talk show host / comedian Adam Carolla
- International film and TV star Cristian de la Fuente
- Actress/model Shannon Elizabeth
- Actor Steve Guttenberg
- R&B/Pop singer and actor Mario
- Actress Marlee Matlin who has been deaf since infancy
- Illusionist Penn Jillette
- Actress and producer Priscilla Presley
- Tennis champ Monica Seles
- NFL’s Man of the Year Jason Taylor
- Broadway actress Marissa Jaret Winokur
- Ice skating Olympic Gold medalist Kristi Yamaguchi
My money is on Priscilla Presley or Marissa Jaret Winokur. Skater Yamaguchi has the flow and dance background, but I don’t think she has the stage presence to take the win. In the men, I’d go for Latin star Cristian de la Fuente – he’s one hot cookie!

Late fall in the Pacific Northwest brings rain and darkness. It is a good time for projects. This one modifies a Black Diamond Mega Light sil-nylon pyramid tent to add tie downs, wind guys, insect netting and wet weather features, while still preserving it’s usefulness for winter snow camping. And of course, doing so with minimal added weight.
So here is the Mega Light, practice pitched on a nice spring day in Mt. Rainier National Park. The basic tent weighs only 25 oz. and can be pitched hanging from an overhead line or with a center pole. You can use a pair of ski or trekking poles with a supplied coupling accessory, or the 11.4 oz. carbon fiber sectional pole that comes with the tent. Tent weight of 2 lbs. 5 oz. for over 50 sq. ft. of interior space and 65 inches of head room is pretty light.
Still some customization can produce an even more versatile, big four season tent, in the range of comfort light packing.To start with it needs seam sealing, like all sil-nylon tents. Paint the seams with a good quality silicone caulk, cut with mineral spirits to the consistency of syrup. Two coats do a good job with an occasional leak needing touch up after a rain or hose test.
The tent and pole weight does not include stakes. For snow camping, big snow stakes are outside our weight tolerance. We need sil-nylon snow anchors. Once again I am in the debt of others. Allen O’Bannon and Mike Clelland’s excellent book, “Allen and Mike’s Really Cool Backcountry Ski Book” shows how to make them. The finished anchors are a 5″ x 6″ sil-nylon square with two 1/2″ x 24″ webbing loops. Fasten these to spectra guyline running through LineLoc 3 Line Adjusters with a 5″ piece of 1/2″ webbing loop sewn into them. The anchor and adjuster just attach to the stake out loops on the tent for snow camping. We need 8. Finished they weigh 3.1 oz.
The Mega Light has no provision for guying out the upper part of the tent against wind. While pyramid tents are pretty good in wind, gusts will push the flat side panels inward. An old article on a Paradox and Bedrock blog post has a good suggestion for wind guys. Sew a reinforcing square and a 1″ binding tape loop to the midpoint of the side panels . I rotated the reinforcing 45 degrees to distribute the stress on the side panel more evenly. Connect another set of snow anchors to the guys via a loop of 3/16″ bungie and a stainless steel cotter ring. This adds shock absorption and an easy way to hook up the guys when I need them. The wind guys and extra anchors pack in an zip lock bag and add 3.7 oz. to the package. Everything but the poles fits in the original, 0.8 oz. tent stuff sack.
So here is a good 4 season, roomy snow camping tent for a trail weight of 2 lbs. 12 oz.
Of course there is no floor or ground cloth and no insect netting. For winter camping, the snow is landscaped inside the tent as desired. Stay tuned for Part 2 to make the tent also work for warmer, wetter weather use.

Huagang Biological Feed Company was established in 2015 and is mainly engaged in feed processing and sales. Due to production needs, Huagang Biofeed added a 4 tph biomass-fired boiler to the plant to provide stable heat energy for feed drying. DZL series biomass-fired boilers are designed by ZOZEN and Shanghai Jiaotong University based on various biomass fuel characteristics with burning rates, and designed through numerical simulation, rational arrangement of furnace arches, furnace walls, and furnace heat receiving surfaces. In the production of biological feed in China and Hong Kong, there will be a large amount of crop residues, and ZOZEN proposes to use these residues as fuel for biomass-fired boilers. Compared with conventional boilers, the DZL series biomass-fired boilers have a large space in the furnace. At the same time, a very reasonable secondary air is arranged to make fuel fully burned, effectively reducing NOX emissions. The speed control box is configured for it, and then the speed can be reasonably adjusted according to the biomass burning rate to ensure that the fuel burns out with no CO2 emission.
The biomass-fired boiler provided by ZOZEN uses the crop residues generated from the feed as fuel to reduce our fuel costs. The boiler has high efficiency and sufficient burning, exhaust emissions are fully in line with national standards, which is a new environmental-friendly product.

At the end of last month an article written by Fran Allfrey and I was published in a special issue of Textual Practice, which introduced the work of the shortlisted and winning entries for the Creative Responses to Modernism Prize, 2015. It was a really rich opportunity to reflect on the curation of our medieval-modern book, A Gift for the Illuminated Sphere, and how the process of making the book related to our practice as researchers.
‘In her 1938 monograph on Picasso, Gertrude Stein described the experience of seeing the earth from an airplane:
I saw there on earth the mingling lines of Picasso, coming and going, developing and destroying themselves, I saw the simple solutions of Braque, I saw the wandering lines of Masson, yes I saw and once more I knew that a creator is contemporary, he understands what is contemporary when the contemporaries do not yet know it.
Just as the de-familiarising effects of Stein’s aerial view gave her new perspective on abstraction, ‘A Gift for the Illuminated Sphere’ – a book curated and produced in response to The Whitechapel Gallery exhibition ‘Adventures in the Black Square: Abstract Art & Society 1915-2015’ – is designed to push the viewer towards a new mode of seeing. The juxtaposition of images from medieval visual, textual, and material culture and abstract art bring about a realisation that medieval art is as contemporary as the radical forms of abstraction conceived in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. As Deborah Levy said of the book, it ‘whips the rug from under modernity’s feet and destabilises it all over again.’’

Electric mobility is becoming more and more popular and leads to a significant increase of development efforts for next generations of battery electric vehicles (BEV). While the first development approaches represented just a solution transfer from vehicles with integrated combustion engines (ICE) to BEV, more sophisticated methods are expected to be considered in the future.
Within the European-funded project ACHILES, such a new approach is used to optimize amongst others the wheel brake for BEVs.
In a first step, the general requirements for vehicle dynamics are elaborated, what also includes the definition of use cases. As an output, requirements and limitations of electric powertrains are given. It means in detail the consideration of the battery pack, the electric motor plus inverter and also the electric energy supply.
Those analyses allow as a next step to derive the requirements for the brake system. Since the brake represents a safety-relevant component, vehicle safety requirements are investigated additionally.
Finally, it is discussed which requirements for the electric / electronic (E/E) components exist and how the brake system and the powertrain can be implemented into the E/E architecture.

The Title 42 public-health order implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic has expired. The order allowed for the expulsion of migrants, including asylum seekers and unaccompanied minors, from the U.S. border to mitigate the spread of the virus.
The expiration of Title 42 has brought hope to many migrant advocates and organizations, who have been pushing for the end of the policy for months. They argue that Title 42 is a violation of human rights and puts vulnerable migrants in harm’s way.
“The expiration of Title 42 is a step in the right direction towards a more humane and just immigration policy,” said Sarah Pierce, policy analyst at the Migration Policy Institute. “It’s time for the U.S. to prioritize public health without sacrificing the rights of asylum seekers and migrants.”
Some lawmakers have criticized the Biden administration for ending the policy, with GOP Senator Tom Cotton tweeting, “Ending Title 42 is reckless and will only exacerbate the crisis at our southern border. Biden’s incompetence knows no bounds.”
The Biden administration has defended the decision to let Title 42 expire, citing improvements in the COVID-19 situation and a commitment to human rights.
“We can protect public health and uphold our values as a nation of immigrants at the same time,” said Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas in a press conference.
“We will continue to process asylum claims in a fair and efficient manner while also addressing the challenges at the border.”

DENVER -- A bigger and better I-70 through east Denver and Aurora is headed closer to reality. The Colorado Department of Transportation Wednesday took an important step in getting the more than $1 billion project underway.
It’s hosting a two-day forum for the industries that want to build the improved interstate.
I-70 East is one of the most heavily traveled and congested roads in Colorado.
Up to 205,000 vehicles a day travel the 12-mile stretch from I-25 to I-225. And that figure will grow between 115,000 and 285,000 vehicles daily in 20 years.
They don’t have their hats in hand. And they’re not ready to drop to one knee.
But CDOT is suddenly the "belle of the ball."
“We’re looking for the right partner. There’s a lot of interest out there that we are hearing,” says Megan Castle, CDOT spokesperson.
Nearly 200 companies are courting CDOT with the hopes of landing the largest transportation project in state history.
“We’ll be talking with companies that manage these projects. They would be looking at providing design, building the project, financing it, providing operations and maintenance,” she says.
The perfect partner wins the I-70 East project that runs from I-25 to Tower Road in Aurora.
Here are some of the highlights of the project:
- Up to two new express toll lanes in each direction
- Removal of the 50-year-old bridge from Brighton Boulevard to Colorado Boulevard
- Highway below ground, with a four-acre landscaped cover over the Interstate by Swansea Elementary School.
“Right now that bridge is like a divider,” said Fernando Torrez, who has lived in his Swansea home for 47 years.
He’ll be glad to see the elevated portion of I-70 go—along with the traffic gridlock. “It's really heavy traffic anymore ... didn’t use to be that way. But it is now, bumper-to-bumper even in the morning now,” he said.
It is a goal bringing together minds from all over the world. Each hopeful about a future with CDOT--and bringing drivers an I-70 that wins their affection.
CDOT will select a partner in the fall of 2016, with construction starting late the same year or early 2017.

DINAJPUR: Two upazila level leaders of ruling Awami League’s associated organisation have been expelled from the party as they declared themselves as 'rebel candidates' in upcoming Union Parishad (UP) elections of Hakimpur upazila in the district.
The expelled leaders are upazila unit Swechchhasebak League vice-president Kawsar Rahman and the upazila unit joint secretary Shahdat Hossain Shado.
Kawsar Rahman and Shahdat Hossain were seeking party nomination as chairman candidates from No. 1 Khatramadhavpara and No. 2 Boyaldar union parishads in the upcoming UP election slated to be held on November 11. But they did not get any green signal from the high command.
As a result, the two candidates declared them as rebel candidate which has violated the party discipline.

The introduction of the EVO ICL lens (EVO) ushered in a new era for the ICL procedure. Now, it serves as a firstline option for patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism. Evidence has even shown the procedure to be an effective treatment for as low as -3.00 D of myopia.1 This article reviews proper patient selection and provides insight into what outcomes can be expected after EVO surgery.
PATIENT SELECTION AND EDUCATION
Patient selection. In my practice, we position EVO as a treatment offering in place of surface ablation procedures, although we still preform surface ablation where indicated. In the past, we might have offered the procedure only for those who were not good candidates for LASIK, such as those with troublesome corneas or high myopia (>-6.00 D). Now, however, we recommend EVO for a wider range of patients such as those with a stable refractive history and moderate myopia because the implant is removable by a doctor, setting the patient up for success in the future as the needs of their eyes may change. EVO is indicated for use in patients between 21 and 45 years of age with myopia or myopic astigmatism with spherical equivalent ranging from -3.00 to -20.00 D and cylinder from 1.00 to 4.00 D at the spectacle plane, and the internal anterior chamber depth (ACD) is at least 3.00 mm. EVO should not be used in patients with a true ACD of less than3.00 mm, an anterior chamber angle less than grade III, who are pregnant or nursing, are less than 21 years of age, who have moderate to severe glaucoma, or who do not meet the minimum endothelial cell density (ECD) in the directions for use.
EVO streamlines and enhances the patient experience, and therefore many patients become interested in the technology. We also prefer EVO for those with troublesome corneas and those at risk for keratoconus based on topography or epithelial mapping.
Introducing the procedure. Our email refractive consultation appointment reminders include a brief description of the services we offer with a hyperlink to our website. We encourage patients to review the EVO information on our website, most of which was provided by STAAR. The company provides excellent resources on the benefits and risks of surgery, including compelling testimonials from influencers such as Joe Jonas, of the Jonas Brothers band (click here).
Having EVO available in the United States is a game changer. It has made the conversations we have with our patients and our consultative process much simpler. Part of our advanced vision analysis is determining what’s the best fit for the patient in front of us. In the past when we talked about the multiple vision correction procedures that we offer, the discussion about ICL surgery was a little cumbersome because we had to explain the necessity for a preoperative peripheral iridotomy. Now with EVO, however, we explain that it takes about the same amount of time as LASIK but has numerous benefits unique to EVO, which is why this has become one of the most rapidly growing procedures that we offer. We tell them that it is removable by a doctor, allowing us to create vision for a lifetime and setting them up beautifully for the future. We also tell them several studies have demonstrated that postoperative vision is as good as or better than LASIK, which provides outstanding results.2 For all these reasons, our conversion rate has increased significantly since EVO became available.
I prefer to approach EVO surgery as a same-day bilateral procedure, which we currently perform in an ambulatory surgery center. I don’t check the postoperative vault in the first eye before operating on the second eye because the vault at that time can appear to be greater than it actually is due to the timing of the assessment. The second eye is treated as an entirely new procedure with a separate sterile setup and medications and instrumentation from different manufactured lots to reduce the risk of endophthalmitis, consistent with same-day bilateral IOL surgery protocols.
On the day of surgery (between 1 and 6 hours after surgery) and at days 1 and 7, my practice checks visual acuity and IOP, and we assess the vault and centration of the lens. Postoperatively, the vault of EVO should be between 50% and 150% of the central corneal thickness (ie, 250–900 µm). If the vault falls outside this range, exchange or removal may be required only if the patient is experiencing visual symptoms (Figure 1).
EVO can help patients achieve freedom from spectacles and glasses. Studies have shown that EVO achieves a high level of postoperative visual acuity, refractive predictability, and stability.3 In the published literature, 90.8% of 1,905 eyes achieved an accuracy within ±0.50 D, and 98.7% were within ±1.00 D up to 5 years after surgery. The uncorrected distance visual acuity was -0.02 logMAR. In the US FDA clinical trial of 619 eyes at 6-month follow-up,1 90.5% and 98.9%, respectively, were within ±0.50 and ±1.00 D of intended correction, and the efficacy index was 1.06. The efficacy index was defined as postoperative UCVA/preoperative CDVA. Regarding CDVA, most eyes (98.5%) were the same or better at 6 months postoperative, and about half (52.3%) gained one or more lines.3
EVO provides excellent visual stability. The US FDA clinical trial also showed excellent refractive and IOP stability at months 1, 3, and 6 postoperative (Figure 2). EVO also had high predictability across a large diopter range (Figure 3).
Patients typically have excellent night vision with EVO. Studies have shown that there is significant improvement in mesopic contrast sensitivity with and without glare after EVO surgery4 with low induction of coma- and spherical-like and total higher-order aberrations.5 The rare potential for glare or halos is, however, always discussed with patients preoperatively.
EVO surgery is safe. The US FDA clinical trial confirmed that EVO has a reduced rate of anterior subcapsular cataract and pupillary block relative to earlier ICL models.1,3 Of course, all risks, benefits, and alternatives are always discussed with patients and documented.
EVO provides a quick visual recovery. Patients can expect quick visual recovery and may return to their daily activities the day after surgery. My patients are prescribed a mild steroid and antibiotic three or four times a day for 1 week.
Collectively, these outcomes point to a great potential for patients to experience these outcomes in the real-world setting.
Properly selecting patients, setting expectations, customizing the procedure, and using a meticulous surgical technique typically leads to an excellent outcome with EVO. Patients can expect the potential to achieve freedom from spectacles and glasses, stable effects, and excellent night vision.

GROW GUIDE PESTS: Practice 2–4 year crop rotations between all Brassicaceae species. Insect pressure on fall-harvested brassicas is typically not as heavy as on spring crops. Encourage beneficial insect activity for suppression of aphids, and/or control aphid outbreaks with insecticidal soap. Control cabbage worms and loopers with Bt (Bacillus thuringienthus), available commercially as Dipel. Floating row covers used from the day of planting will protect from heavy flea beetle damage on spring crops. Maintain a pH between 7.0–7.2 for suppression of Club Root (Plasmodiophora brassicae).
Seed Origin: Open Pollinated
Plant Spacing: 16–18 inches
Plant Size: 20–26 inch plants, 6–7 inch heads
Hardiness: Hardy Biennial
This early variety has robust, self wrapping, erect leaves that offer good protection. The heads are an ivory color, with excellent flavor.


Just a few days after the announcement that Israel had agreed to U.S.-sponsored peace talks with the Palestinians, Glenn Beck devoted more than nine minutes to a rant suggesting that the president and his administration are anti-Israel. Beck never mentioned the peace talks; rather, he devoted time to building a sense of impending doom, predicting a “bad conflict coming our way soon in the Middle East.”
“Who's side are we on?” Beck asked before stating that the kind of thinking that “permeates” the current administration is a type that would “defend Iran instead of Israel if a confrontation happens.”
Beck then went on a guilt-by-association spree, using old distortions and falsehoods to attack the president's appointees and advisors over invented anti-Israeli sentiments and purported ties to anti-Israeli organizations.
Beck criticized Obama for having “nothing but kind things to say” about “terrorist sympathizer” Rashid Khalidi -- an old and distorted attack.
Beck also revived the absurd attack against White House Advisor John Brennan for referring to his love of “Al Quds -- Jerusalem.” Beck claiming that Brennan “insulted Israel” by referring to Jerusalem as “Al Quds.” But “Al Quds” is the Arabic term for Jerusalem and other political figures, including a member of the Reagan administration and a former prime minister of Israel, have referred to “Al Quds.”
Beck also attempted to paint Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services head Donald Berwick as anti-Israel because of his position on the board of Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) -- an organization that was a co-recipient of the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize -- for the group's supposed “outspoken” criticism of Israel.
And Beck even brought up William Ayers and Jeremiah Wright yet again to attack Obama over Israel.
Beck also suggested that Obama is inappropriately sympathetic to Muslims. He bemoaned Obama's statement at inauguration that “we are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus, and non-believers,” claiming that “I don't think that's ever been said before by a president of the United States in that order.” He then stated that Obama “needlessly th[rew] his hat into the ring” over the Islamic community center in Manhattan. After noting that Obama hosts Ramadan dinners -- which Beck said was not a problem by itself -- Beck presented his most ridiculous piece of “evidence”: Michelle Obama's visit to the “Alhambra Palace mosque,” which, as Beck himself notes, is a tourist attraction.
“Are they sending messages?” Beck asked. “I don't know. I don't know. I've never had to look for messages before.”
The real “messages” that the Obama administration is sending on its position on the Middle East are pretty clear: They're attempting to restart peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians. Really dangerous stuff, huh?

Big Bass Bonanza
Set upon five reels, three rows and 10 paylines, the aim of this game is to land three matching symbols on one of the paylines, starting from the far-left reel. With up to 2,100x your stake, up for grabs in the free spins round, you’ll want to keep an eye out for the angling-related symbols such as fish, a tackle box, dragonflies and a fishing rod. The multi-coloured float is the most lucrative symbol, with five on a payline offering you 200x your stake! There’s also a fisherman acting as the game’s wild, appearing only in the bonus rounds to further enhance your gameplay.
Different coloured fish can each payout different values, so why not see if you can hook a win? What’s more, if Big Bass Bonanza takes your fancy, then you could see if you can catch any bigger wins when you play Bigger Bass Bonanza online!
Bigger Bass Bonanza
After its release in 2020, Bigger Bass Bonanza became the latest catch with its bonus game, multipliers and free spins. The underwater action takes place upon five reels with four rows and 12 paylines. Essentially, this newer version of the game has the addition of another reel, with the potential to bag a payout of 4000x your bet, as well as some new symbols and the familiar free spins feature where different valued fish are up for grabs.
With the same brightly coloured graphics and bubbles framing the reels, this slot might look the same but has some incredible bonus features. For example, during the free spins round, every fourth wild that lands could grant you 10 additional gratis turns, paired with a multiplier of two, three or 10x your bet. This can be retriggered up to three times!
The game is compatible on any mobile device, and with a Return to Player (RTP) rate that’s higher than the average slot game, so do you think you have what it takes to catch a big’un?

The manufacturers of embedded mini PC in Thailand have established that the device could be found anywhere in the future. However, many manufacturers of the mobile phone and consumer electronics are not willing to include the embedded mini PC to their products when they are considering for a high price. Only few brands of mobile phones have applied this feature to make it unique and different from the others. It’s actually the main form at the beginning of its development.
The price of the embedded mini PC in Thailand has been reduced rapidly in a span of years of development; therefore, the ratio taken by the embedded mini PC is now increasing. Mobile phones are the handheld electronic products which have the largest scales. This makes the cellular phones an important application of the device, especially in the digital camera industry. In Thailand, they have released the related products, and more Thai factories are following it up.
What is more, the embedded mini PC was encouraged after the iPod Touch was first released. In the COMPTEX of 2010, there are more cellular phones and cameras with no basic frequencies, but are able to play videos that are stored in memory by the operating system easily. These machines have duplicated the operation module.
On the COMPTEX of 2010, the embedded mini PC in Thailand is applied to a portable DVD player, which shows that some manufacturers have considered the traditional view of the application in home entertainment systems. The only difference found on it is that there are no applications in the automobile and personal computer industry at this time. It is such as some technological hurdles need to be overcome.
The embedded mini PC in Thailand have been popularized in terms of price and features. They are now offered in any online shop for a reasonable price. Manufacturers of cellular phones and cameras will certainly add these functions. Reliable experts say that shipment of the embedded mini PC can reach millions around the world in the coming years. This will mean that many people will be using the technology in their personal or business consumption.


The economic recession provoked by COVID-19, in addition to the huge inflation in prices has pushed thousands of Syrian refugee families in Lebanon into more vulnerability and dramatically increased their needs for urgent support.
Looking for a safer and better life, Hanaa and her family escaped the harsh war in her homeland Syria and settled in the Bekaa Valley five years ago. “Our house was destroyed, so I took my seven children and fled to Lebanon. The journey was very difficult. it took us six hours to cross the borders across the mountains. When we first arrived at the other side, the traffickers took our money otherwise they threatened to shoot us,” says Hanaa. “Despite living in a tent, it’s much better than living under bombs. We got used to our life here, and I don’t think we will be going back to Syria in the near future,” she adds.
Hanaa’s husband, Khleif, who arrived in Lebanon seven months before his family escaping the terrorist groups, never imagined that misfortune will follow him to Lebanon. “I haven’t been able to find work for a year and a half. I used to work as a tailor and now due to the recent economic crisis all job opportunities vanished,” he says. “We are now living either on humanitarian assistance or debt. I have a three million Lebanese pound debt and I don’t know how I am going to pay it.” He adds
World Vision, with support from UNICEF and funding provided by the United States government and the government of Canada, provided Hanna and her family with water trucking and desludging services. “Thank god that World Vision is providing us with clean water. Water is the most important thing for a healthy and clean life. Without this essential support, our situation would have been much worse,” explains Hanaa.
Since the COVID-19 outbreak, the family has been experiencing further stress and anxiety every single day. “At first, we did not know what to do, so we locked ourselves inside without welcoming anyone. We didn’t want to put our children’s lives at risk,” says Khleif. “World Vision provided us with soap, bleach bottle and sanitizers. They also trained our children on how to properly clean their hands and take the right precautions. Now, whenever I want to go outside to get some stuff, I make sure I am wearing a mask. I make sure to wash my hands first thing when I’m back in the tent,” he adds.
“Since schools are closed, the children are reviewing their study material daily and watching some educational programs on the phone. When they are bored, they can play just in front of the tent but not far,” says Hanaa. “We will try to stay resilient to all the problems we are facing. I hope our financial situation will get better soon so we can go back to normal life and our children to school,” adds Hanaa.
As part of World Vision response to COVID-19, the WASH team has distributed soap and flyers in 426 informal settlements reaching 28,740 Syrian refugees in the Bekaa of which 17,244 are children. Also, the team has distributed 7432 bleach gallons and 14864 hand sanitisers in hope of slowing down the spread of the disease.

text: Intrastrand cross-links (IaCL) connecting two purine nucleobases in DNA pose a challenge to high-fidelity replication in the cell. Various repair pathways or polymerase bypass can cope with these lesions. The influence of the phosphodiester linkage between two neighboring 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) residues attached through the O(6) atoms by an alkylene linker on bypass with human DNA polymerase η (hPol η) was explored in vitro. Steady-state kinetics and mass spectrometric analysis of products from nucleotide incorporation revealed that although hPol η is capable of bypassing the 3'-dG in a mostly error-free fashion, significant misinsertion was observed for the 5'-dG of the IaCL containing a butylene or heptylene linker. The lack of the phosphodiester linkage triggered an important increase in frameshift adduct formation across the 5'-dG by hPol η, in comparison to the 5'-dG of IaCL DNA containing the phosphodiester group.

November 1st, 2022
Purdue Libraries and School of Information Studies is pleased to recognize two individuals with the 2022 Leadership in Open Access Award: Dr. Harry Denny, Professor of English and Director of the Writing Lab and Dr. Yung-Hsiang Lu, Professor, School of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The Leadership in Open Access award is given annually in recognition of exceptional commitment to broadening the reach of scholarship by making Purdue research freely accessible online. This award is granted to nominees who have worked in collaboration with one or more repositories supported by Purdue Libraries, such as Purdue e-Pubs, Purdue University Research Repository (PURR), or Purdue e-Archives.
Denny, along with his fellow journal editors of the Writing Center Journal, successfully transitioned this formerly closed access, print journal to an Open Access journal. The journal was made openly available in Purdue e-Pubs through a partnership with Purdue University Press. In addition to publishing all forthcoming content from the Writing Center Journal, all back issue content has also been made available on the Open Access site and provided with DOIs, making the journal’s legacy stable and globally accessible. https://docs.lib.purdue.edu/wcj/
Lu has been the lead organizer of the annual IEEE Low-Power Computer Vision Challenge since 2015. Between 2015-2021, 108 international teams submitted more than 500 solutions. Since 2019, winners have to release their solutions and present their solutions in conference. The winners’ solutions are collected and published in a book “Low-Power Computer Vision Improve the Efficiency of Artificial Intelligence”, Chapman and Hall/CRC, ISBN 978-0-3677-4470-0, February 23, 2022. For transparency, the referee system’s source code as well as reference solutions are released before the challenges (https://github.com/lpcvai). The reference solution serves as the basis for participants to improve upon. Lu is also a strong proponent of Open Access to research software. Each of his research papers is accompanied with a github repository of the software used for generating the data presented in the research paper. Most important, Lu promotes Open Access in his courses. He teaches students the concepts of Open Access and explains the tools for managing Open Access—including software and data. In the past 5 years, more than 1,000 students have learned the skills to manage and share Open Access information.
Dr. Harry Denny and Dr. Yung-Hsiang Lu join the growing list of previous recipients of the Leadership in Open Access Award.Filed under: faculty_staff, general, News and Announcements, Open_Access, scholcomm if(!is_single()) echo "|"; ?>


With the development of new running gear, the formula E began its evolution into a series of “normal” motorsport. This season will be also available in the race power increase.
During the first season, the available power for Formula E was 133 kW (180 hp) for the first few tests and then had gone to 150 kW (approx. 204 hp) for the first season with a chance to reach 200 kilowatts (270 hp) during testing or during the “fan boost”. Now it is 170 kilowatts (230 hp) that will use the drivers and still 200 kilowatts at peak. Williams Advanced Engineering has worked on various components for this.
Batteries however retain their total capacity of 28 kWh. However the increase in available power should not lead to higher consumption through more efficient engines trains. In the end we should have a faster sprint and/or more tactics to shift the car change halfway. The boost fan will create it a less significant difference but will be still interesting.
Alejandro Agag said: “The development of future battery technologies is one of the foundations of the championship. Formula E should show the progress of electric vehicle technology and through the development of Williams Advanced Engineering, we will have a faster sprint, better and more exciting this season”.
To recall, the opening of the second season was postponed one week and Beijing e-Prix will take place on 24 October.

The cost of a commercial in some of the biggest shows on TV is getting lower.
Out of the 66 returning series on the big four broadcast networks and The CW, 41 saw the cost for a 30-second ad decrease in the 2018-19 season, according to Ad Age’s annual pricing survey of media agencies. Only 12 returning shows received a price hike, and another 13 remained relatively steady compared with last year.
And TV’s biggest property—the NFL—might have hit a ceiling in commercial prices, at least for now.
After two years of price hikes for a 30-second commercial in NBC’s “Sunday Night Football,” those increases have stalled this season. Advertisers are paying $665,677 on average for a 30-second spot in the broadcast, about $30,000 less than the $699,602 advertisers paid last year.
Still, “Sunday Night Football” remains by far the most expensive TV show for advertisers (excluding Fox’s late-national NFL games on Sunday afternoons, which are not technically in prime time and average over $700,000 a pop).
