Blackburn Rovers could be set to allow goalkeeper Aynsley Pears to leave Ewood Park on loan this summer but they would need to bring in a replacement, according to The Sun journalist Alan Nixon.
Pears only arrived at Blackburn last summer from Middlesbrough, and the keeper was aiming to battle with Thomas Kaminski for the club’s number one position in the Championship.
However, the form of the Kaminski kept him out of the side all season, barring a run of three matches against Reading, Swansea City and Boro in October and November when the Belgian was injured.
He, therefore, had to settle for the role of backup at Blackburn despite having moved to try and get more first-team minutes.
It is now being reported by Alan Nixon that Blackburn are going to be willing to allow the keeper to leave the club temporarily in the summer. However, it is believed that Rovers would not sanction a move until they have brought in someone to replace him as their backup to Kaminski.
Can you name the Blackburn Rovers player who has been carded the most in each of the last 16 seasons?
Blackburn. Open to loan move for keeper Pears to get games. Would need a new number two.
— Alan Nixon (@reluctantnicko) May 23, 2021
Tony Mowbray had suggested back in October that Blackburn need to have patience with Pears and allow him to gel with the rest of the squad following his move from Middlesbrough. It now seems like they are willing for him to go now to get minutes under his belt next term.
This seems like a very sensible approach by Blackburn to Pears’ situation, the keeper is obviously a player that is itching to play games and he is going to struggle to oust Kaminski as Rovers’ first-choice stopper in the near future. Therefore, it does make sense for him to go out on loan and get some confidence next season.
Pears is a player with potential and he could well further down the line establish himself as Rovers’ number one keeper. Kaminski’s form if it continues might well see him attract interest from elsewhere further down the line and that is when Mowbray could re-introduce Pears to the side.
However, Blackburn are right to first ensure that they will have enough cover in the goalkeeping department before they do sanction any potential loan deal for him. It will be interesting to see who Mowbray looks to bring into the club to provide that backup option.


Unexpectedly, I became a fan of the R&B Divas in Atlanta. Unlike most reality tv shows featuring casts comprised of mostly women, the R&B Divas had disagreements but they never resulted in blows or bottles being thrown. There was no physical drama but the show was never boring. So I’m happy to see that TV One is expanding the franchise and hiring a whole new cast for LA. We already told you who’s going to be on the show but here’s what we’re looking forward to learning and seeing from each cast member.

Stress holds us back both mentally and physically. It doesn’t take long for stress to take its toll on the body as well as the mind. Due to this, it’s important to have coping strategies to achieve relaxation. There are many different strategies to aid relaxation, and there’s no one fits all solution. For those looking to improve their calming practices, here come ten to try give a try!
Writing down our feelings and thoughts when we feel stressed can be a great way to help us to relax. Write down what’s making you feel stressed and the other emotions that you are experiencing. Write down ways that you think you could solve the issue. Try to determine what or who might be able to help you. Sometimes, we feel stressed yet are unsure what the cause is. In these moments, writing freely can be a great way to connect to our minds and figure out the problem.
Aromatherapy is a great way to relax when you feel tense. Jasmine oil and chamomile oil have excellent calming properties; you can inhale them or add them to a bath if you prefer. Frankincense oil is another popular choice, as is lavender. Some people prefer to rub the oil into their skin to achieve the benefits. When rubbing essential oils into your skin, ensure that you first dilute them with some kind of carrier oil. A good carrier oil could be, for example, almond or coconut oil. Essential oils are quite potent, so applying directly to the skin could irritate sensitive skin.
Deep breathing can be a fantastic way to relax when you are feeling anxious. Simply taking deep and drawn- out breaths can help you to check-in with your body and mind to calm down. There are many different types of deep breathing techniques to practice. One example is ‘Equal Breathing’ or ‘Sama Vritti, ’ which is often practiced in yoga. To practice this technique, you must breathe through your nose in counts of four. So you’d inhale counting to four, and the exhale doing the same. Another breathing technique practiced during yoga is ‘Nadi Shodhana, ’which involves breathing through one nostril (while closing the other) and then switching nostrils.
Meditation is a fantastic way to relax and connect with the mind and body both. There are many different types of meditation to try; one, for example, is mindfulness meditation. During this style of meditation, the goal is to listen to thoughts as they go through your mind. The intention is to only observe the thoughts without judging them. Then there are styles of meditation that are concerned with clearing the mind of thoughts. Focused meditation, for instance, involves concentrating on one thing (like your breath) and trying to focus only on this without letting your mind wander.
Yoga is the ultimate relaxation exercise, perfect for those who struggle to unwind. During yoga classes, you’ll build up your core strength plus your flexibility and balance. Classes incorporate meditation, deep breathing, and relaxing music for a fully calming experience. Hatha yoga is a great go-to for beginners as these classes are generally rather slow. Hatha starts with the basic postures, so you’ll get to pick these up before trying more dynamic classes. For those who have trouble sleeping, it can be great to practice a gentle yoga class before going to bed. In addition, there is always the possibility of taking a dc yoga instructor course, and making a career out of this ancient practice too!
Guided imagery involves closing your eyes and imagining that you are in a positive and calming place. It could be on the beach or in the forest, for instance. You imagine that you are alone walking through this peaceful scene, looking at the beautiful sights, hearing the relaxing sounds. You can do this practice yourself, or you can find a guided imagery recording to help you do this.
Supplements like Ashdawagna or St John’s wort are great for easing anxiety and promoting relaxation. Both are extracted from flowering plants and can be purchased in pill form. Those who struggle to sleep could also try magnesium supplements, as these can be beneficial to get a better night’s rest. Now that company websites like Unify Health Labs are available to search for the perfect supplement for you, there's really no excuse to not be getting the right vitamins into your diet! Another great product to try is CBD oil. It’s extracted from the marijuana plant, but it is not the same compound that can produce the marijuana-associated ‘high.’ The oil can be used to relax and feel calm after a hard day.
During times of tension, relaxing music can be lovely to listen to. Find something that’s slow, full of nature sounds, and melodic. There are many of playlists of soothing or meditative music to try. Simply lay down, put some calming music on in the background and allow yourself to unwind. Natural sounds like the waves or birds chirping can help us to feel peaceful and rest.
Drawing is a highly therapeutic way to relax and ease tension. With therapeutic drawing, it’s less about skill and more about focusing on the task. When you are focused on drawing, you allow your mind to become quiet. If you’re not sure where to start, perhaps choose an adult colouring book. There are some great ones available that involve the colouring of geometric patterns and shapes (which is said to be a rather soothing practice)!
The natural world raises our endorphin levels and is beneficial for both the body and the mind. Whether it’s a walk in the forest or a swim in the sea, try to get amongst nature as much as you can. Often we spend so much time immersed in the technological world that we forget to get our much-needed dose of the natural world!
As 2019 draws to a close, we start to reflect on our achievements and set goals for 2020. Reducing stress will help you to grow in the other areas of your life, so set a few of these stress-busting practices as goals.

The city needs homes not retail parks say Cambridge Liberal Democrats
Lib Dems are calling for Cambridge City Council to invest some of its own money to provide more homes in the city at attractive rents.
In response to the Labour city council’s plans to invest £20 million in commercial property, such as the B&Q retail park at Haverhill, Liberal Democrats are urging a rethink to instead spend £10 million on council housing stock.
They are calling for the council instead to make investments new homes, which they say is the city’s number one need.
Under their proposals, they say two-thirds of the new housing development on the site of the Council’s Mill Road Depot site could be provided at sub-market rents.
Cllr Rod Cantrill, Lib Dem spokesperson on Finance & Resources said: “Of course the Council needs to obtain a return on its assets, but a local council should be trying harder to couple a financial return with a social return and not be acting like a property speculator. The city is crying out for new homes for rent, where possible provided at levels below today’s crippling market level.
“The Council has been successful in winning £70m from the government to build more council homes, but while welcome, this will not transform the city’s housing crisis. Housing shouldn’t only be expected to happen with government money. The Council should put some its own money where its mouth is.”
The Lib Dem plan, proposes up to 30 of the new homes on the Mill Road Depot site to be provided at 80% of market rent, supplementing the expected 84 at fully social rents. Planners expect a total of 167 homes on this site.
Lib Dem housing spokesperson Cllr Nick Avery says: “Our proposal will improve the mix of tenures on this unique site at the heart of the city. It helps to avoid polarising housing provision in Cambridge between the extremes of high market prices and what could be afforded out of welfare benefits. There are those who will never meet the criteria for purely social housing, yet still struggle to get a foothold in the city where they work, or to afford transport costs to live outside.”

Is there anything worse than coming home on a scorching summer day only to find that your air conditioning has decided to take an unexpected vacation? We’ve all been there, and it’s not a pleasant experience. That’s why today we’re here to remind you: don’t neglect your HVAC system! This essential piece of equipment keeps us comfortable year-round, but without proper maintenance, it can quickly turn into our worst enemy.
In this blog post, we’ll dive into the must-do maintenance tasks that will keep your HVAC system running smoothly for years to come. So, grab a cup of coffee and get ready to learn how to become the ultimate protector of your indoor climate control!
Introduction to HVAC Maintenance
Your HVAC system is one of the most important components of your home, and it’s important to keep it running smoothly. Regular maintenance will extend the life of your system and prevent costly repairs down the road.
Here are some essential HVAC maintenance tasks to keep your system running smoothly:
1. Change Your Air Filter
One of the most important things you can do for your HVAC system is to change the air filter regularly. A dirty air filter will restrict airflow and put extra strain on your system, leading to higher energy bills and potential damage. Most filters should be changed every 1-3 months but be sure to check your owner’s manual for specific recommendations.
2. Clean Your Vents and Registers
Another easy way to keep your HVAC system running smoothly is to clean your vents and registers on a regular basis. Dust and dirt can build up on these surfaces, restricting airflow and causing problems with your system. Simply vacuum or dust these areas as needed to keep them clear.
3. Have Your System Inspected Annually
Even if you do all the other suggested maintenance tasks, it’s still a good idea to have a professional inspect your HVAC system at least once a year. HVAC services in Bergen County, NJ, and similar services in other parts of the country can spot potential problems and make sure everything is running as it should be. This inspection should be done in the spring before cooling season begins.
The Benefits of Regular Maintenance
It’s no secret that regular maintenance is essential to keeping your HVAC system running smoothly. However, many people neglect this important task, thinking that it’s not necessary or that it’s too time-consuming. The truth is regular maintenance can save you time and money in the long run by preventing expensive repairs and extending the life of your system.
Here are some of the benefits of regular HVAC maintenance:
1. Improved Efficiency
One of the main benefits of regular HVAC maintenance is improved system efficiency. Over time, dirt and debris can build up in your system, causing it to work harder to heat or cool your home. This not only wastes energy and increases your utility bills, but it also puts unnecessary wear and tear on your system. Regular maintenance will clean out your system and help it run more efficiently.
2. Fewer Repairs
Another benefit of regular HVAC maintenance is that it can help you avoid costly repairs down the road. By catching problems early on, you can often fix them before they turn into major issues. This can save you a lot of money in the long run.
3. Extended System Life
Regular HVAC maintenance can also extend the life of your system by keeping it running properly and preventing wear and tear. This means that you won’t have to replace your system as often, saving you even more money in the long run.
How to Properly Maintain Your HVAC System
Maintaining your home’s HVAC system is essential for ensuring optimal comfort and efficient operation. Regular maintenance not only extends the lifespan of your equipment but also helps prevent costly breakdowns. Start by scheduling professional HVAC inspections twice a year, ideally before the start of summer and winter seasons.
During these inspections, an experienced technician will thoroughly clean all components, including coils, filters, vents, and ductwork to remove dirt, debris, and allergens that can compromise air quality. They will assess refrigerant levels to ensure proper cooling capacity and inspect electrical connections for safety purposes.
Additionally, they will examine belts, motors, fans, and bearings to identify potential wear or damage that may hinder performance or lead to unexpected failures. By addressing minor issues promptly during routine check-ups through timely repairs or replacements as needed – such as worn-out filters or loose wires – you can prevent major breakdowns down the line.
Maintaining your HVAC system is essential to keeping it running smoothly and efficiently. By following the tips outlined in this article, you can ensure that your HVAC system continues to work correctly for years to come. Regular inspection, cleaning, and filter changes are all important tasks that should not be neglected when it comes to maintaining your HVAC system. Don’t wait until it’s too late – start taking care of your home’s heating and cooling needs today!

Cornelius Amory Pugsley Silver Medal Award, 1932
Peter Norbeck (1870-1936) received the Pugsley Silver Medal "for his services in the establishment of Custer State Park in the Black Hills." He was a prominent senator from South Dakota who fought vigorously for the establishment of national and state parks, forests and wildlife refuges, and for the preservation of the heritage of nature contained within them. He understood the need for parks at all levels of government, regularly attended meetings of the state park directors, and indeed, was at the 1921 meeting when the National Conference on State Parks was organized. To many South Dakotans, the career and personality of Pete Norbeck towers above that of any other resident in the state's history. From 1909 until his death in 1936, Norbeck occupied all of South Dakota's highest political offices, and he was never defeated for public office.
Although Norbeck was a rough-and-tumble well-driller and politician, he had an artistic nature and love of natural beauty which caused him to achieve national prominence in the field of park and conservation legislation. The federal Migratory Bird Act of 1959, the establishment of Custer State Park and the Badlands National Park, along with the Mount Rushmore Memorial are all testimonials to his efforts. He once declared, "I would rather be remembered as an artist than as a United States Senator."
Norbeck was born near Vermillion, Clay County, South Dakota into an impoverished Scandinavian immigrant family. His father was a Lutheran preacher and he was the oldest of six children. Since he was needed at home to help with the chores on the family homestead and had to look after his younger siblings he had little formal schooling, but he did receive a basic education and religious training from his parents at home. Norbeck was anxious to obtain more education, so his parents scraped together the resources for him to attend the newly-established University of South Dakota in 1887, but he attended only two semesters before a serendipitous event led to him becoming an entrepreneur.
Like many areas in the west, water was the key resource in the Dakotas. In the community in which the Norbecks resided, water scarcity in the late 1800s and early 1890s resulted in drought conditions. To address this problem, his father bought an old horsepower drilling machine to seek artesian water. When he asked his oldest son to fix it up, it took nearly a year to do the job, but he got good water, and decided he would drill wells for other homesteaders who needed them. This was how he launched a highly successful business career.
After a slow start, Norbeck became a major driller of artesian wells. The method he formulated was substantially less costly than that used by others, so business flourished. He ultimately left his own business and linked up with the American Well Works Company which had the resources to assist him in developing new technology for well drilling before establishing the firm of Norbeck & Nicholson whose success resulted in him becoming wealthy. By the age of 30, his early persona as a difficult, quiet, unworldly farm boy had been transformed to a vigorous, active and confident businessman.
By 1905, Norbeck had twenty-five artisan well rigs in operation in South Dakota and had expanded into several adjacent states. During his lifetime, his company drilled over 12,000 wells.
Buoyed by his substantial assets, in 1905 Norbeck made the first automobile trip from the Missouri River to the Black Hills. On this trip, he first conceived the idea of establishing a state game park in Custer County in order to preserve South Dakota's natural game, such as buffalo and antelope, which were rapidly becoming extinct.
Norbeck's friends encouraged him to run for the state senate in 1909. The assets which they believed made him electable included his Scandinavian heritage (there were many of similar heritage in the state); a wide range of acquaintances across the state from his business activities, a reputation as a successful and honest businessman, and financial independence. Because of his background, he was widely viewed as a "practical" man and not as a "politician", and he was easily elected.
Norbeck was not a good speaker, but the techniques of the politician came naturally to him. He always prepared thoroughly for debate and it was his knowledge of the topic and logic of his argument, rather than eloquent rhetoric which were his weapons for making his case. These attributes, together with his commanding personality, inspired enthusiasm and confidence in him by others.
After six years in the state senate, friends persuaded him to leave his business interests in the hands of partners in order that they could nominate him for lieutenant governor. He was elected early to this position and his widespread popularity resulted in his subsequent election as the state's governor from 1917-1921.
In his inaugural address to the state legislature as governor, Norbeck prominently featured protection for South Dakota's wildlife resources in his agenda. Few had realized during his years in the senate that this rough, energetic, well-driller loved natural beauty and preserving it became a passion. He aspired to establish a great state park in the Black Hills and its acquisition became almost an obsession.
In 1913, he was influential in getting 61,440 acres of land in Custer County designated for a state game preserve. The eight-by-twelve mile area was ideal for a park and game preserve. However, very few Dakotans were interested in this project. It was said he "could count his supporters on the fingers of one hand." There was opposition from Black Hills' ranchers who could no longer use the land for grazing and by many in the eastern part of the state who objected to the expense. However, as governor, he successfully prevailed on the legislature to provide resources to enlarge the initial park area, and then persuaded the federal government to transfer 30,000 acres of national forest land into the state park.
In 1920, the legislature proposed changing the name from Custer State Park to Norbeck Park in recognition of his effort, but Norbeck rejected the proposal because "it stands in the way of getting further work done." To establish the park was only part of the job as Norbeck saw it. It must be made accessible to tourists. He spent days walking and riding over the area laying out roadways and trails. There are reports of the governor's trousers being badly torn and his legs scratched and bleeding. It was not easy to push his 240 pounds over rugged, heavily forested terrain.
In 1921, when Norbeck decided to seek a U.S. Senate seat, his popularity as governor assured his nomination and election. When he arrived in Washington D.C., Norbeck's life-long interest in wildlife conservation and park development soon brought him into prominence in these fields. Those interested in preserving the country's natural resources quietly came to depend on him to get their bills through Congress. Many of the country's leading conservationists were among his closest friends, especially Horace Albright with whom Norbeck traveled thousands of miles in the west.
His first few years in the Senate were spent with minor conservation and park measures, and those which affected primarily his own state, but while so engaged he was preparing to deal with broader problems. In 1924 he obtained an extension to Custer State Park, which reportedly made it the largest state park in the nation, and in establishing an antelope preserve in northwestern South Dakota.
His two most prominent achievements in Congress were the passing of the Migratory Bird Act and funding the work needed to complete Mount Rushmore. Conservationists were concerned that nesting grounds of migratory birds were being drained and this was accelerating bird extinction. A bill providing for the purchase of land to be designated as inviolate bird sanctuaries first was introduced in the Senate in 1921. It failed again in 1924 and 1926 when Norbeck reintroduced it.
Norbeck's Norwegian stubbornness and tenacity resulted in the bill being reintroduced in 1927 and again in 1928 when a version of it finally passed. It provided for the purchase of bird sanctuaries from funds raised by selling federal hunting licenses priced at one dollar per hunter. He estimated this would raise approximately $1 million annually for land purchases and law enforcement. When the bill was finally passed, the federal licensing feature had been removed from it, but Norbeck countered successfully with an amendment authorizing $1 million annual appropriations from the federal treasury.
Conservationists were elated with its passage regarding it as a landmark event. The editorial in one of the leading conservationist magazines was typical: "Senator Norbeck earned the everlasting gratitude of all friends of conservation by his tireless and persistent efforts for this legislation." Norbeck, however, was disappointed because he realized the difficulty of persuading Congress each year to appropriate the $1 million which was authorized. His fears were confirmed over the next few years when less than half the amount authorized was appropriated. Nevertheless, by 1933, twenty-two refuges comprising of 1,085 million acres had been acquired, and in 1934 Norbeck got his act amended to provide for the federal license which guaranteed on-going funding for the program. This act served as a model for much subsequent major conservation legislation.
Norbeck had been an early advocate of creating a great national shrine dedicated to democracy on Mount Rushmore. He became a close friend of sculptor Gutzon Borgium who was commissioned to undertake the carvings of the presidential figures there. To garner support for the project, Norbeck persuaded President Coolidge to preside at a formal ceremony launching it. Coolidge was impressed and pledged federal support.
Norbeck led the South Dakota delegation in passing an act in 1929 that provided for the federal government to contribute $250,000 on a matching basis for the memorial's construction which was estimated to cost $500,000. After maneuvering to get it passed, Norbeck wrote to an old friend, "That was the hardest day's work I have done since I came to Washington." Subsequently in 1934 when the $500,000 cost estimate proved to be too low, he persuaded President Roosevelt to support an additional appropriation of $200,000. This was duly appropriated by Congress and ensured the memorial would be completed.
Norbeck took a personal interest in promoting and developing the Mount Rushmore Memorial's Iron Mountain Road. He insisted on directing its route so none of the area's natural beauty would be destroyed. When completed, it passed through three rock tunnels, each framing a spectacular view of Mount Rushmore several miles away. A newspaper editorial asserted Norbeck "has been a leader in the development of a new form of art...In laying out these magnificently beautiful roads, he pioneered in the framing of natural scenery for the public. He found great pictures in nature and gave them to the world by building roads to them."
Norbeck's park activities were not confirmed to the Black Hills. His planning and vigorous support was also largely responsible for the passage of the so-called Kendrick bill establishing Grand Teton National Park. He also initiated a measure extending the boundaries of Yellowstone Park. Indeed, he regularly inserted amendments into legislation at the behest of the NPS.
In the discharge of his official duties, he knew no fear, and he could not be intimidated. His politics were not merely the good of his party, but the good of the whole people as he saw it. He was a Republican only to the extent that the Republican Party was rendering a real service to mankind. Anything less than that was repugnant to his whole nature.
By 1935, Norbeck was suffering from painful cancer of the tongue and jaw. At the 1936 dedication of the Jefferson head at Mount Rushmore, he could only stand by mutely as Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Borglum made their statements. He died in December 1936. Norbeck's modus operand and character were summarized by a political commentator writing in 1930 who described Norbeck as a man with:
No suppressed pride of place...one who makes no attempt to conceal his broad Scandinavian accent, which with his plain dress, gives him the cast of a prosperous butcher...Seemingly a naive and childlike spirit, 'Pete' as he is known...is one of the smartest politicians in the Senate; his nature is an affection and armament.His six foot, 230 pound stature gave the impression of rugged strength and power. At the time of his death, one of his peers in the U.S. Senate stated:
Like the rail-splitter of Kentucky, this well-driller of Dakota wrested his education from few books and many thoughts. In him, as in all great men, this thought, shaped by contact with well-chosen minds, bred vision. And that vision was ever the well-being of his neighbors, his State and his Nation. It was never clouded by passion, prejudice, nor greed.
It shone in the honesty of his battles against special privilege; the clarity of his hatred of hypocrisy; the tolerance which led him to understand the motives of his opponents; the vigor of his ceaseless pursuit of beauty and the valor of his votes for civic liberty and moral right.
Horace Albright, director of the NPS declared:
We are not likely to see soon another leader arise who will have such a broad knowledge of the conservation problems of the country and the courage, power, and legislative skill in drafting and guiding through Congress the laws necessary to provide permanent solutions to these problems.Source:

A CFD model was developed to simulate the turbulent flow field and the associated dust dispersion in an agitated spherical explosion vessel. Simulations were performed in the presence of a fan at the bottom of the sphere. Numerical results show that a helicoidal flow pattern is established. The dust entrained by the fluid flow accumulates at the wall and mainly at the top of the sphere.

I first came to know Elliott Carter’s music while an undergraduate student at the Univesity of California, Irvine while I was working in the listening lab. I practically “lived” in that lab, and working there gave me the opportunity to help build my knowledge of repertoire by repeated listening to the records and tapes that were on file there. I fell in love with his music immediately upon first hearing it.
As I discovered Carter’s work, I was utterly fascinated, and found in it a wealth of invention and a harmonic language that I found to be truly unique. Even the early works such as the Piano Sonata (one of the first works of his I studied) owing as it does to a certain extent, its debts to Copland and possibly, other mid - century Americans, possess a remarkable degree of innovation (particularly the first movement, with its unmeasured delineations and phrasing). After becoming acquainted with his Piano Sonata and then his ‘Cello Sonata, the First String Quartet was a true revelation, and perhaps has had the most influence on my work and approach to musical form. His sense of duality and multiplicity in these and the works that followed, has been a profound inspiration. Put simply, his music opened up whole new worlds for me, realizing that music like that is possible. Every measure reveals profound poetry and a depth of expression that is remarkable.
I first met him at a concert at Carnegie Recital Hall in the late 70s, at which time we spoke briefly and I indicated to him that I hoped that he would take a look at some of my work, We agreed to talk more at the upcoming Aspen Music Festival, where he was going to be in residence and where I was a student. After looking at some of my work in Aspen, he offered to take me on as a private student when we returned to New York. And so, for three years (1980-1983) I had the privilege and pleasure of visiting his apartment on W. 12th St for lessons.
A few years later, my wife & I were invited to the legendary Waccabuc residence for a very stimulating day in the country, with Mr. & Ms. Carter and Allen Edwards, his longtime friend and associate. I had the opportunity to see where he wrote some of his most well known works, and where he surely derived a great deal of inspiration. I will always remember that day.
His consummate class and elegance are a gift to us all, and the legacy of the depth and intelligence of his music will live on far into the future, as successive generations discover it. Words cannot express the gift he has given me in my focus and journey as an artist. Words also cannot express how much I miss him.

I am not sure who advised you on not shooting reloads but every gun manual I have ever seen says not to shoot reloads. It is standard to say not to do it but obviously a lot of people do.

Having said all that, I have fired my gun a few times and the more I handle it the better I like it. I'll stick with my 40 and having reloaded centerfire rifles and wheel guns I'll follow the specs if I choose to reload. Great gun!!! Lools like a G19 appears to be on the radar.

Embracing the world with positive creativity since Sept 2007.
I think of you,
as sundown settles into cradle of twilight's rest,
and stars come out to dance and play,
like the twinkle in my eye that dances when with you,
when we rest side by side at the end of the day.
Every day I pine for you,
as the pitch of night gives way to newborne dawn,
fawn awakened in unknown fields of forest,
forests where dwells the song of your loves promise,
whos' tune I listen for so that I may merrily sing along.
Every day I ache for you,
passions ache seeping through skin and even past bone,
to the most hidden inner recesses of my soul,
where your loves virtues are extoled to me,
telling me that THIS love
...is the love that will help me to grow wise,
that will help me to grow strong.
Every day I cry for you,
tears of joy when I feel you coming closer,
tears of sadness when I feel you drifting farther away,
sails of love set every eve,
as I let my soul drift to the soft shores of loves quay.
You are the one I think of,
the one I pine for,
the one I ache for,
the one I cry for,
and every day,
it starts for thee anew,
as every day I discover your love in new colors,
stepped in ever new shades and hues.
Come to me in the pitch of the stygian abyss,
set my soul to fire with your starlights healing kiss,
than lay me down to cool that fire with your loves healing shores;
show me the same adoration in heart and spirit that I imagine for thee,
even though I have not yet met thee,
and know that though I know not the signature of your loves presence,
that I already feel your presence there,
peeking into my heart with a hint of your loves aftertaste,
as I wake to that aftertastes sweetness,
and I whisper your unknown name
...as I imagine myself running rivers through your soft and pillowy hair...

South Africans held in Syria went there to join Isis - Trac
During an interview with Dr Imtiaz Sooliman, founder and chairman at Gift of the Givers on Wednesday, it emerged that a number of South Africans are trapped in Syrian camps.
Sooliman said about 27 South African women and are children scattered across Syrian camps and the government is working on bringing them back to South Africa. This included the family of Dr Feroz Ganchi who is believed to have been killed in an airstrike in Syria.
Intelligence and terrorism expert Jasmine Opperman says the number of South Africans in Syria is still not confirmed.
However, she has confirmed that there are seven South African women in Syria who went there to become Jihadi brides and they are now held in these camps.
My factual information indicates seven women and about 10 - 15 children. They were part of Isis and they are being held there now.Jasmine Opperman, Director - Africa at Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium (Trac)
The children ages vary between 5 and 15 years.Jasmine Opperman, Director - Africa at Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium (Trac)
Opperman says some of these women followed their husbands who went to Syria to join Isis, while others went voluntarily after being recruited by Isis.
But there also those who went to carry out humanitarian work and got caught up in the ideological battle, she explains.
Rather get these women back as soon as possible and get those poor kids into structured programs over the long term, otherwise one is breeding the future Jihadists.Jasmine Opperman, Director - Africa at Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium (Trac)
What is happening in these camps is that a group of Isis women that show no remorse, they are enforcing these Isis extremist ideologies on women who don't want to be part of it.Jasmine Opperman, Director - Africa at Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium (Trac)
My message to government is that get the Muslim communities involved. You need people who can fight Isis based on knowledge and understanding.Jasmine Opperman, Director - Africa at Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium (Trac)

Their husbands are unproductive, idling all day in their Kiabiraa village in Manga, Nyamira County, drinking locally brewed alcohol.
As the men waste away drinking, their wives have become the sole breadwinners of their families.
In this part of Kenya, women choose to get married as a routine. More specifically, the Abagusii culture dictates that a woman should get married and bear children.
But children are not just children – boys count for more.
Those not blessed to bear male children are abhorred and life in the villages becomes a tad difficult for them.
In Kiabiraa village, a group of women, just like others in Gusiiland, got married and hoped to live happily ever after.
But woe unto them; life has not been easy after their husbands became habitual drunkards, leaving them with the heavy burden of fending for their families.
Hellen Kwamboka is now old, sickly and frail. But even in her condition, she has to get up and work. She manually breaks rocks to make gravel for sale.
The gravel is preferred in house construction.
Breaking the rocks is backbreaking. But she has done it for many years.
Benefits for all
At the site, she lifts her small hammer and carefully hits the rock lying in front of her. It shatters into small pieces, adding onto an already formed pile of gravel.
She repeats the same procedure, all day, determined to make a sizable heap, which she says should be enough to fill a pickup truck. One pickup-full of gravel goes for Sh2,500. A medium truck goes for Sh9,000 and a wheelbarrow Sh150.
“To ensure we all benefit, we each contribute two or three wheelbarrows to a buyer. We at least get a customer who wants to fill a pickup or truck daily,” says the 67-year-old mother of two.
The women sit tactically on one of the piles of gravel. Their legs are wide open to create room for the rocks, prepared for crushing.
At times, the shattering rocks hit their eyes, injuring them. Other times, when the hammer misses its target, the rocks, it lands on their fingers. It’s a painful venture.
“When are injured, we are rushed to the nearby Manga Sub-County Hospital for treatment. We resume work after recovering,” Ms Kwamboka says.
But this they must do, otherwise their families will starve to death.
Each time they lift their hammers to hit the rocks, the sound and action of shattering stones is in itself an inspiration to them, that their food for tomorrow is assured. They live one day at a time.
Ms Kwamboka says she has done this work since she got married aged just 16.
“I have raised my children using the proceeds of this work. They are now grown up and fend for themselves doing other jobs,” she says.
“Unfortunately, my second-born son survived an accident two years ago and lost his leg. I take care of him as well, together with his father.”
Judy Kemuma got married aged 20. She was introduced to this work by her husband, but the man later pulled out, leaving her to struggle alone.
She has three children and has been taking care of them single-handedly.
“At times, my husband demands a share of the little I earn. I have no option other than to give him, otherwise there will be no peace in that house,” says the 35-year-old woman.
No formal group
In this particular site, there are six women out of 12 gravel-makers.
They do not have a formal group, which would have helped them to organise themselves better.
In Gusiiland, excessive consumption of local brews has affected many people, making them unproductive.
This is a problem the national government, through the Ministry of Interior, has acknowledged and vowed to deal with.
Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i has time and again called on residents to resist the urge to drink the illicit brews.
Late last year, he said the performance of national government administrators will be gauged on how they tackle illicit brews and alcohol abuse in their jurisdiction.
“Their Key Performance Indicators (KPI) will largely depend on how they handle these societal issues,” he said.
County commissioners, chiefs and their assistants who condone illicit brews, drug and substance abuse in their areas of jurisdiction risked being sacked.
He spoke at Kebirigo High School in Nyamira County after meeting local chiefs and their assistants.
“The use of alcoholic and narcotic substances has contributed to the rise of defilement, rape, murder and other forms of crime in the society,” he said.
He warned that each administrator, right from chiefs and their assistants to the county commissioner, will be held personally responsible for any illicit brews and defilement cases in their jurisdiction.

The retail stores in Romania and Lithuania will boast the highest growth rates in sales this year, 7% and 5.9% respectively, but the purchasing power of the buyers in these countries remains among the lowest in Europe, resulting in lower productivity for retail spaces here, shows a GfK study.
The consultancy company estimates a 2% average increase in retail business in the 27 EU countries (less the UK).
Compared to the average productivity of EUR 7,250 per square meter of retail space in Luxembourg (the highest in European Union), or EUR 6,430 per sqm in Norway, the retail spaces in Eastern Europe yield much lower sales: between EUR 2,680 per sqm and EUR 2,760 per sqm in Romania, Poland and Bulgaria.
The eastern countries also rank low in terms of retail spaces per capita: Romania has only 0.73 sqm of retail space per capita, up 1.7% from last year, compared to an EU average of 1.13 sqm per capita.

“Long before Merlin and Imp, Blondie and Condor — and Charley,The Wizard, Morning Cloud, Santa Cruz 27s/50s/70s, Regardless, Fast Is Fun, Mirabella V, the Chicken Coop, half the Swan lineup in the ’80s and ’90s and, well, everything else — Ron Holland and Bill Lee were just two young guys having fun and hoping to make a career in the marine industry. “
Looking for a nice Christmas present? How about Ron Holland’s book “All The Oceans”. Ron Holland drew his first yacht at 19 years of age. He rapidly made a name for himself as one of the most successful and sought-after designers in the highly competitive world of international ocean racing. Ron designed the 1973 Quarter Ton Cup (Weymouth) winning 1/4 tonner ‘Eygthene’ and the 1977 Quarter Ton Cup (Helsinki) winning 1/4 tonner ‘Manzanita’. A great book!
Holland grew up in Auckland, New Zealand, where, he recalls, every family had a boat – the majority of them built right at home – to sail Harukai Gulf and the Firth of Themes.
By 15, he was crewing on yachts, and competing in races and regattas, and made the 1,000-mile journey from Auckland to Sydney, Australia aboard at 236-foot ketch. He became an apprentice boat builder.
In 1966 – at the age of 18 – he received his first design commission, which led to more, and he traveled to San Francisco as a Trainee Naval Architect, under celebrated yacht designer Gary Mull.
Holland arrived in St. Petersburg in 1972, accepting a job with Charley Morgan, whose Morgan Yachts was one of the most successful design and construction companies in the States. He became a well-known figure out the St. Petersburg Yacht Club, and in his memoir he recalls the organization “was primarily a social club but they also had a good racing organization … I spent most weekends racing around the magnificent Tampa Bay and Gulf of Mexico aboard a variety of yachts.”
It was here that Holland designed the first of his legendary vessels – a 24-foot racing boat called a “quarter tonner.” Called Eygthene, the scrappy little yacht was built for approximately $6,000.
From All the Oceans: “I drew a deep breath and approached senior members of the yacht club committee with a proposal that they organize an event that would showcase the Quarter-Ton class on Tampa Bay: a level-rating event, a true test of the relative merits of the yachts. Considering I was not even a member of the club – and a New Zealander to boot – was probably asking a bit much.
This book will not give you the technical expertise to design a yacht but it is a wonderful, rollicking adventure story of Ron Holland growing up and getting to the top of his profession in often hilarious steps. In any successful life chance plays a part but more important is the ability to capitalize on good luck and the ability to somehow derive benefit from bad luck as well.
Ron Holland’s story is inspiring, fascinating and amusing. It is a good easy read and beautifully presented book.
In a long and successful career, Ron Holland has seen many of his creations launched, from America’s Cup yachts to Whitbread yachts to superyachts. Now he has launched a book, All The Oceans: Designing by the seat of my pants, recounting his life as a leading yacht designer.
“I did not pursue what is now considered the traditional way to become a yacht designer,” he says. “Always fascinated by voyages of exploration under sail, a natural talent for drawing and a three-year apprenticeship in a wood boat fabrication shop laid the foundation for me to strike out on my own. Without hesitation, I grasped every opportunity that came my way.
Friends, clients, crew-mates and colleagues came to a function at the Quaterdeck in the RNZYS to celebrate the launching of his book – now on sale at the RNZYS Retail Store – were tales were exchanged and the usual toast raised.

After more than ten years, object technology pioneer Rebecca Wirfs-Brock teams with expert Alan McKean to present a thoroughly updated, modern, and proven method for the design of software. The book is packed with practical design techniques that enable the practitioner to get the job done. Like many human endeavors, design is part art, part engineering, part guesswork, and part experimentation. Discipline, hard work, inspiration, and sound technique all play their part as well. For any given problem, there are many reasonable, but only a few very good solutions. The authors' goal is to help readers learn to make those very good design decisions on their own. The book explores challenges that software developers will face as they build their design, and shows how design patterns can be used to solve design problems. Long awaited and eagerly anticipated, this book represents the first great software design book of the century. A FUTURE CLASSIC!

This week, we conclude our special report series exploring how high-speed fiber networks can future-proof distributed data centers by exploring cost and network topology – and how virtualization can help IT leaders when future-proofing their infrastructure.
With the pace of change only likely to quicken in the future, IT leaders should begin thinking now about how they can future-proof their infrastructure. Here are some of additional factors they should take into account.
Cloud computing services have increased the latitude customers have in budgeting and cost allocation, but they have also introduced new expenses that aren’t always apparent and that can add up over time. For example, egress fees, which charge for data taken out of public cloud storage, can be substantial when large data sets are involved. A 150 TB file transfer from a cloud platform costs an average of $1,000 in egress fees alone, and large enterprises typically move many times that amount on a typical day.
Software-as-a-service provides an abundance of choice, but it is up to their customers to watch for collateral costs created by unused or underused accounts as well as security risks like data exfiltration and configuration errors that leave data exposed. Ninety percent of respondents to a recent McAfee report said their organizations had experienced some security issues with cloud infrastructure, mostly attributable to user error.
People costs are usually the largest single line item in a CIO’s budget and administering networks of distributed data processing equipment can require a lot of people. With data center operators already facing desperate skills shortages, automation should be applied wherever possible. Virtualizing infrastructure lays the foundation for automation and is now applicable across servers, storage, networks, desktops, and data. Moving to software-defined infrastructure insulates IT organizations against equipment obsolescence and can significantly reduce staffing needs.
The distributed, heterogeneous enterprise IT landscape in the future will require far more robust and automated networking capabilities than were used in the past. Legacy networks were designed for static workflows. However, today’s business climate is dynamic and mobile, subject to sudden spikes in activity and often unpredictable traffic patterns. New technologies like robotics, virtual and augmented reality, video streaming, and real-time equipment monitoring will also require organizations to allocate plentiful bandwidth to meet latency demands.
IT leaders should look to fiber networks constructed from a mesh fabric to give them maximum flexibility and automation. A mesh network links devices together through other branches or nodes. They are optimized for routing data efficiently between devices and clients, enabling organizations to maintain consistent connections with a minimum of vulnerability to disruption or unexpected changes in traffic flows.
New Ethernet fabrics based upon industry-standard protocols such as Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) and Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (Trill) enable all links in a network to be active with multiple equal-cost paths. This improves performance to optimize routing while permitting the network to quickly repair itself and route around outages.
Perhaps more importantly, fabric networks lay the foundation for software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV). SDN uses virtualization to improve flexibility and management by abstracting the control plane from the data forwarding functions in network devices. Essentially, all devices can be treated as a single pool and capacity allocated dynamically depending upon the needs of applications. This enables centralized management, control, automation, and policy enforcement across both physical and virtual networks.
NFV applies to services commonly provided by dedicated hardware such as routers, firewalls, and load balancers. It enables those important functions to be deployed at a lower cost on commodity hardware and managed centrally. In most cases, there is no need for on-site troubleshooting, which reduces travel and personnel costs and enables faster setup and remediation.
Virtualized networks also support multiple physical topologies and can be constructed incrementally over time.

Colleges still have millions to fire football coaches despite claiming financial trouble from coronavirus
The University of Arizona athletic department announced some troubling news last month in Tucson.
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Wildcats said they faced $45 million in losses and were forced to make job cuts, including 21 layoffs.
Athletic director Dave Heeke called it “a difficult day of very tough decisions.”
“These challenging economic times have affected all of us,” Heeke said then.
Less than six weeks later, the Wildcats didn’t seem quite as broke. After his football team lost its 12th consecutive game dating to 2019, Heeke fired coach Kevin Sumlin and put Arizona on the hook to pay Sumlin $7.3 million to buy out his contract, half of which is due to Sumlin within 30 days of his termination.
This is part of a surprising trend in recent days. Despite claiming financial trouble during the pandemic, several major college football programs found the huge sums of money necessary to fire coaches for not winning enough games during a truncated season filled with disruption.
Altogether, Football Bowl Subdivision public schools have committed themselves to more than $107.5 million in buyout-related payments this season for head coaches, assistants and strength coaches, according to figures compiled by USA TODAY Sports. This includes just over $63.8 million for head coaches at eight schools. Vanderbilt, a private school, also fired its coach, Derek Mason.
Among public schools, Auburn will owe Gus Malzahn about $21 million and his staff as much as $8.3 million. South Carolina will owe Will Muschamp about $15.4 million and Arizona will owe Kevin Sumlin about $7.3 million.
This kind of spending, at this time, for this reason, has elicited criticism and some astonishment from those who monitor and work in college sports.
“We were certain there would be a limited number of changes, and they would come with retirements or guys going to the NFL, but we really didn’t anticipate people would pay multimillion-dollar buyouts in this environment,” said Todd Turner, president of Collegiate Sports Associates, which assists colleges in coaching searches.
It was supposed to be a mulligan year for coaches, according to this theory. Because it was a short, troubled season and because schools were supposed to be strapped for cash, the expectation was schools would give losing coaches a pass this year instead of paying them so much not to coach.
That has not been the case.
Auburn fired Malzahn after eight seasons and a record of 68-34, including 6-4 this season. He is owed $21 million for the school breaking his contract, half of which is due to him in 30 days and the rest payable over four years. In November, a university official said at a board of trustees meeting that athletic revenues were down $62 million. In July, Auburn athletic director Allen Greene issued a letter to season-ticket holders saying “we are evaluating every expense” in response to the impact of the pandemic.
“Your contributions will help Auburn weather this crisis,” he stated. Auburn didn’t immediately respond with a comment when asked about the situation.
South Carolina owed Muschamp $15 million after firing him last month, when his record after four-plus years was 28-30. In September, athletic director Ray Tanner reported the Gamecocks were facing a $58 million revenue shortfall. His department has taken pay cuts, furloughs and other measures to reduce expenses. In June, university president Bob Caslen also issued a dire message to faculty and staff.
“The budget outlook before us is more serious than any the university has faced since the Great Recession, and the loss of revenue next fiscal year could surpass the recession in terms of a single year impact,” Caslen said. “It will require a new level of creativity and shared sacrifice from our entire campus community.”
South Carolina didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
Illinois owed fired coach Lovie Smith $2.5 million after he went 17-39 in five seasons. In August, athletic director Josh Whitman addressed financial challenges his department faced, which included more than $300 million in debt, at least 15 job cuts and at tens of millions in lost revenue. “I think we only have so many levers to pull,” he told reporters then. Illinois said the buyout will be absorbed in the operations budget for fiscal year 2021 and any shortfall at the end of it will have to be made up over time.
Arizona fired Sumlin after he went 9-20 in three seasons. Asked how his buyout costs square with the financial challenges there, Arizona athletics referred USA TODAY Sports to a statement that said the university will honor Sumlin’s contract “including all buyout provisions, with funding from athletics-generated revenue and sources.”
Some of the buyout money owed to fired coaches can be spread out over time. It also can be reduced if these fired coaches get new jobs and use their new pay to mitigate the buyout pay from their previous employers. But that is not always required and often is just a small fraction of what the coach will be owed by his firing school. In Malzahn’s case, Auburn owes him that full amount regardless if he gets a new job.
Even if they're partially reduced, such buyouts still add up to a huge and questionable expense, demonstrating why the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics recently advocated a breakup between FBS football programs and the NCAA. The independent group pushes for reforms that strengthen the educational mission of college sports.
“The unseemly spectacle of colleges paying excessive buyouts to football coaches at a time of significant cuts and dwindling revenue erodes public trust in college athletics and is a good example of why the Knight Commission has recommended separating FBS football from the NCAA,” said Nancy Zimpher, incoming co-chair of the Knight Commission and chancellor emeritus of the State University of New York. “The first necessary step of getting a grip on spending is to fix the dysfunctional governance of college sports, including the fragmented governance of FBS football. Once that happens, a new, fully accountable FBS football organization can explore solutions to control spending.”
Turner, the search executive, previously served as athletic director at several schools, including Washington and Vanderbilt. He said athletic directors are looking “past the pandemic and how we’re going to recover from this,” with football still the primary driver of that.
That means getting fans and alumni excited about a new coach after the current one fell short.
In Arizona’s case, Sumlin at Arizona got canned after a 70-7 loss against rival Arizona State.
Even if this season deserves an asterisk, school presidents and athletic directors are still hearing complaints from alumni and donors if their team loses like that and doesn’t win enough.
“They could never make a commitment that it was a mulligan year, because the alumni never were going to treat it that way,” said David Berri, a sports economist at Southern Utah. “If you’re going to play the game, there were going to be losers and whoever lost was going to lose their job.”
So then how are they paying for it?
“It’s the big cigar guys with big dollars who are willing to spend it, because it suits them and because they can,” Turner said of donors. “Universities get held hostage over that, and it just takes courage on the part of presidents and other leaders in higher ed to say that’s inappropriate.”
Berri notes that the big universities have billions of dollars and that these severance packages are nothing in comparison. At Auburn, the university system had a proposed budget of $1.4 billion for 2019-20.
He also said athletic directors deal with problems as they come and prioritize according to what their constituency considers to be important.
“You didn’t have ($7 million) last month” to save those jobs, Berri said. “Yeah, that was a different problem on a different day. This is a new problem on a new day. My problem today is people are yelling at me (about firing the coach). It turns out I have ($7 million) to spend on that problem.”
Public pressure plays a big role. And football has a much bigger constituency than the athletic department staff members who lost jobs or suffered pay cuts.
“If the president would have gotten calls from hundreds of people about those 15 furloughed positions," Berri said, "then it wouldn’t have happened.”

Senior Night was a success for the Lady Tigers’ volleyball team. The intensity was high as the Lady Tigers’ seniors of Dorothy Brown, Vanessa Brown, and April Johnson all were honored on the court just before they swept the Alcorn Lady Braves 3-0.

Kayla Lewis had multiple assists as her contribution lead to the Lady Tigers taking a 23-18 lead.

Zaudito Yosef Seri: Flakes of Charcoal. April 5 - June 24 2017
Charcoal has been used as an artistic material for thousands of years throughout human history, stretching back to the cave-paintings, and artists still use it in their drawings. In different forms of processing, it is part of sculptures and installations by contemporary artists. Yet the way that Zaudito Yosef Seri (b. 1983) uses this material is unique to her and in her works, charcoal is simultaneously the medium, the subject, and the image.
The artist’s chosen material is wood charcoal - a coarse material without artistic lineage – chiefly used in Israel for grilling food on barbecues. She crushes and grinds it in ‘kitchen work’, then recombines the particles to form delicate, pierced surfaces like black lace. The material’s affinity with an ancient element - fire – and with the most fundamental need – food – together with its fragile, crumbling nature, enriches it with profound meanings for the artist, who chose it to express her identity and the erased memories of her childhood.
Zaudito Yosef Seri discovered charcoal while studying art at Sapir College, when she explored the concept of home and memories from home. In the neighbourhood of Ethiopian immigrants in Sderot, near the college, Ethiopian-born Zaudito came across aromas evoking her childhood home; the odour of charcoal in a campfire, the scent of roasting coffee, Ethiopian bread, and distinctive foods. At the same time she discovered the special quality of the sense of smell, which preserves primary memories that are lost over time. Zaudito immigrated to Israel in 1991 and, she maintains, remembers nothing about her country of birth. It is only from stories that she knows about life in Ethiopia and her family’s harrowing two-year journey to Israel. The awakening of her sensory memory through those aromas was a turning-point that led her to adopt charcoal as a material she strongly associates with.
Scraps of personal memory take shape in the work Monument as if they were physical organs in a laboratory glass jar, while the title refers to large sculptures constructed to represent events deserving commemoration. Declaration of Independence recalls the egalitarian utopia cited in Israel’s constituting document, overshadowed by the reality experienced by various populations in Israel. Issues of gender equality - primarily attitudes to woman’s body as recruited to national and social goals - are alluded to in Womb Cluster. Charcoal’s blackness also arouses associations in several spheres. Beyond all these, the exhibition presents art whose unique language constantly shifts between painting and relief, between abstract and tangible, between fragility and strength, between the material and the spaces surrounding and within it, between black and white, and between the visible and the imagined.
Zaudito Yosef Seri was brought up in Ashdod, graduated in art studies in 2014, and now lives in Ramat Gan. She has participated in several group exhibitions, and this is her first solo exhibition. We thank her for the loan of the works.

Five Ladies and a Fork Lift
THE BOOK! Now available at www.Amazon Books.com
An Inspirational ‘How-To’ Book on Forming Public-Private Partnerships
Intent on reducing the number of SIDS cases in America, the executive director of SIDS of Pennsylvania, Judy Bannon, and her nonprofit staff set out to discover why babies were still dying in spite of the highly successful Back to Sleep campaign by the National Institutes of Health.
After poring over local death investigation forms, Bannon’s team noted a startling trend—90 percent of the babies had been found in unprotected sleeping environments such as adult beds and couches. Was it possible that these tragic deaths were due to the simple fact that parents couldn’t afford safe places for their babies to sleep?
Five Ladies and a Forklift recounts the inspiring story of how Judy launched Cribs for Kids®—from her early struggles trying to convince others of the importance of safe sleep to the creation of the public-private partnership model that has allowed the organization to transform into a multimillion-dollar nonprofit that is reaching parents all across the country and saving thousands of babies every year.


IPPNW condemns today’s test of a nuclear weapon by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. We urge the DPRK government to reconsider its pursuit of nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them, and to join with the majority of States that have pledged to stigmatize, prohibit and eliminate nuclear weapons because of their unacceptable humanitarian impact.
It is essential to stop perceiving nuclear bombs as weapons. They are useless in serving any legitimate national purpose. They are not weapons, but instruments of genocide.
