Tensor decomposition of human narrowband oscillatory brain activity in frequency, space and time
Investigators: Roman Rosipal, Zuzana Rošťáková
The detection and changes of oscillatory rhythms in the EEG signal are important for understanding the processes taking place in the human brain during experiments aimed at modulating brain activity, as well as for the proper functioning of the brain-computer interface. In , we created a set of simulated EEG data copying the basic properties of a real EEG signal with the aim of rigorously demonstrating the advantages of tensor decomposition – PARAFAC and Tucker’s model – compared to standard methods in the time-space domain. We also showed that the limitations of the decomposition in the spatial and frequency domain (unimodality and bimodality) lead to a better physiological interpretation of the detected latent components representing oscillatory rhythms. Simulated EEG data helped us in  determine the suitability, or inappropriateness of applying the existing methods of determining the number of latent components F in the PARAFAC model to EEG data. We also confirmed the relevance of our proposed heuristic approach to determining F, which achieved comparable results with the best method based on Bayesian statistics. The created simulated EEG data can also serve in the future as a standardized set with known properties for further rigorous comparison of different EEG signal analysis approaches.

Seven dipoles were selected as sources of oscillatory activity at 5 Hz (blue), 8 Hz (green), 11 Hz (yellow), and 14 Hz (red). Right: Graphic diagram of the PARAFAC decomposition of the simulated EEG signal in the time-space-frequency domain. The PARAFAC model detected four latent components representing oscillatory activity at 5 Hz in the frontal region (component 1), 8 Hz in the central region (component 2), 11 Hz in the occipital region (component 3), and 14 Hz in the central region (component 4).

-NOTE: The signs will be turned on Thursday, 3/13-
Looking to improve the quality of bicycle access on a controversial and deadly stretch of SW Barbur Boulevard, the Oregon Department of Transportation will turn on four new “bicycle warning beacons” next week (they were first proposed last spring). ODOT says the new flashing signs will be the first of their type ever used in Oregon.
The signs will be placed at each end of the Newbury Street and Vermont Street bridges and will activate automatically as people on bicycles roll past sensors embedded in the pavement. ODOT is pouring $5 million into rehabilitating these two bridges and these bicycle signs are the result of public input on that project. ODOT’s Public Information Officer Don Hamilton says the four signs cost the agency $180,000.
When ODOT first announced the bridge project, concerned users of SW Barbur Blvd implored them to use the opportunity to put the large arterial on a “road diet” and add a dedicated bikeway. Barbur, a potentially perfect bicycling connection between southwest and downtown Portland, currently has just a standard bike lane that abruptly drops at the two bridges, placing bicycle riders directly in a lane shared with fast-moving traffic.
Despite pressure from citizen activists and advocacy groups — including the Bicycle Transportation Alliance — ODOT and Portland Bureau of Transportation Commissioner Steve Novick have opted to delay any major changes on Barbur for now.
While a major re-design of Barbur isn’t on the table, ODOT says these signs will increase safety. Here’s more from them via a statement they’ll send out later today:
When the beacons are activated, motorists will be alerted to bicyclists on the bridges and can then make appropriate driving decisions, such as slowing down or changing lanes. Cyclists will still need to use caution and watch for a gap in traffic before safely moving into the traffic lane.
Here are the features:
• The signs increase awareness by drawing the attention of motorists to bicyclists in the right lane.
• No stopping is required. The signs are activated by an automatic sensor.
• The signs will be located prior to the bridges in each direction.
We’ll see how the signs perform once they’re up and running. If you ride on Barbur, please drop us a line and tell us how the signs change your experience.

The Right Time To Eat
Eating food may sound very simple in itself but it’s the simple mistakes we make that make a huge difference. So its important to know that when it comes to eating, the timing of meals is the key.
At Morning, have breakfast in an hour after getting up. It will help your body get energy after a good deal of time without food and stabilize blood sugar levels. Best foods for breakfast are oats and other whole grains, slow carbs for getting steady and balanced energy. Fresh fruits and berries, fast carbs for a rapid boost of energy. Eggs contain proteins for building and repairing tissues and fat for feeling fuller for a longer period of time.
After 2 – 3 hours, have a small snack in order not to become “hungry” by lunch, but remember that snack is not a meal. So the portion should be moderate even if you choose healthy foods.
After 2 -3 hours, a fistful of nuts, a handful of berries or chocolate are good foods for brunch. After 3 hours, have a healthy lunch to stay full and active throughout the afternoon. At lunch, include foods from at least 3 food groups (protein, vegetables, fruits, calcium-rich foods, grains etc.). A good example of a well-balanced lunch is the combination of chicken breast (protein), vegetables & greens and quinoa (grains).
After 3 hours, have a small snack with food pairings that provide energy and satiety. For example a combination of cheese and fruit, whole grain crackers and nut butter etc..
After 2-3 hours, have dinner, which contains sources of protein, fiber and some healthy fats. Also 2-3 hours before going bed, have an evening snack to maintain your body while you sleep. Better to keep your evening snack, light in order not to overload your stomach during the night. Do not add any carbs as the energy provided by them is useless during your sleep.
This schedule is just an outline, as there are no strict rules for eating time. The key is to listen to your body’s hunger cues and do not make the break between eating more than 4 hours.
Try to use this scale to assess your hunger level:
- Starving and feeling weak/dizzy.
- Very hungry, irritable, low energy, large amount of stomach growling.
- Pretty hungry, stomach is beginning to growl.
- Beginning to feel hungry.
- Satisfied, neither hungry nor full.
- Slightly full/ Pleasantly full.
- Slightly uncomfortable.
- Feeling stuffed.
- Very uncomfortable stomach aches.
- So full you feel sick
You should eat when you are between pretty hungry, stomach is beginning to growl and satisfied, neither hungry nor full and stop eating before you get to slightly uncomfortable.

MEXICO CITY--Mexico's stocks slipped after a positive start and closed slightly lower Wednesday, with losses in retail stocks offsetting gains in several market heavyweights.
The IPC index of leading issues closed down 0.05%, or 20 points, at 41905 on volume of 340.6 million shares worth 9.15 billion pesos ($750 million).
Retail stocks were mostly lower, with Wal-Mart de Mexico (MWWVY, WALMEX.MX) V shares down 2.1% to MXN35.99 and Comercial Mexicana (COMERCI.MX) UBC shares off 2.7% at MXN48.44. Appliances and electronic-goods retailer Elektra (ELEKTRA.MX) shares fell 1.9% to MXN513.34.
Retail association Antad said its members' sales rose just 1.5% in April from a year before, while same-store sales, which exclude shops opened in the past year, fell 3.2% from April 2012. Department stores continued to outperform supermarkets and specialty retailers.
The L shares of telecommunications company America Movil (AMX, AMX.MX) rose 0.7% to MXN12.79, and cement maker Cemex (CX, CEMEX.MX) CPO shares rose 3% to MXN15.14.
A steeper-than-expected 0.5% decline in U.S. April industrial production and a negative New York Fed manufacturing report for May led the Mexican peso to weaken against the U.S. dollar, closing in Mexico City at MXN12.2070, according to Infosel, compared with MXN12.1880 Tuesday.
The peso had weakened to MXN12.2625 before recovering some ground earlier Wednesday.

Translation and commentary on John’s Gospel
JOHN 18: 17
So they took Jesus and he went out to the so-called Place of the Skull (Golgotha in Aramaic), carrying his own cross. There they fixed him to the cross, and two others with him, one on either side with Jesus in the middle. Pilate also had a title written and put on the cross. It said, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Judaeans.” This title was read by many Judaeans for the place where Jesus was fixed to the cross was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, Latin and Greek. So the chief priests of the Judaeans said to Pilate, “Don’t put, ‘The King of the Judaeans’ but ‘He said, I am the King of the Judaeans.’ Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
When the soldiers had fixed Jesus to the cross, they took his outer clothing and divided it into four parts, a part for each soldier; but his tunic was seamless, woven in one piece throughout, so they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it but cast lots for whose it shall be” – that the Scripture should be fulfilled that says, “They divided my outer clothing amongst them and for my inner clothing they cast lots”. So that’s what the soldiers did.
I have kept the traditional translation of the Greek stauros = execution stake because the latter is a little clumsy, but it remains important to remind the reader that Jesus was not killed on a ritual object, but on whatever kind of stake had been roughly put together for this occasion. Crucified people were exposed to the elements, naked and humiliatingly unable to control their bodily functions. They died of heart failure or suffocation often after many hours of terrible pain. It was a punishment reserved by the Romans for foreigners and slaves. The biblical writers are very sparing in their description of Jesus’ ordeal, giving minimum information. It seems possible in spite of this narrative, that none of the disciples witnessed this event.
The detail of the title on the cross is confirmed up in the other gospels. It may indicate that Jesus was put to death as a messianic pretender. That is certainly the logic of John’s gospel; the one who has spoken of another dimension is very firmly nailed down in the dimension that belongs to Caesar.
The “seamless robe” of Jesus seems to be invented by a misunderstanding of Psalm 22, where the dividing and the casting lots refer to the one action. The psalm had been used in the tradition of Jesus’ death for many years before its use in this gospel. It may have appealed to this author because the robe of the high priest was seamless.
Why did the numbering of your posts change at this juncture? Instead of continuing the numbering to 2086, I see 2056. And the next post is 2057.

Lions’ Ansah (shoulder) active for first time since Week 1
Ansah, who has been sidelined with a shoulder injury, is active for the Lions’ road game against the Minnesota Vikings.
The Lions placed the franchise tag in April on Ansah, who is playing on a one-year contract that is worth $17.1 million.
Ansah, who was the fifth overall pick of the 2013 NFL Draft, collected 30 sacks over his first three seasons — including a career-high 14.5 in 2015.
The 6-foot-5, 275-pound Ansah saw his production dip to 2.0 sacks in 2016 as he dealt with a high ankle sprain that hampered him throughout the season.
Ansah bounced back to register 12.0 sacks in 2017 even though he was also hampered by a knee injury that led surgery in the offseason.
The 29-year-old Ansah has four tackles and a sack on just 19 snaps this season.
The Lions (3-4) are one game behind the first-place Chicago Bears in the tightly bunched NFC North. Aside from the 48-17 shellacking in the opener by the New York Jets, the defense has held up fairly well without Ansah, ranking seventh in the league with 23.0 sacks.
Detroit also listed running back Ameer Abdullah, linebackers Jalen Reeves-Maybin and Kelvin Sheppard, defensive linemen Kerry Hyder and Eric Lee, offensive linemen Joe Dahl and Andrew Donnal as inactive.

I love a good Pioneer list. Whether it’s full of brands I know and love, like the top women-led companies across the country, or a more specific list, like today’s top women-led cannabis brands in Oregon, there’s something special about friendly competition. Today’s list is particularly interesting because it’s pulled many brands I, as an out-of-stater, am not familiar with. (Though our editor-in-chief, Felisa, may have a different take, being from Oregon.) What’s better than learning about more women-led cannabis companies?
If you’re not familiar with Pioneer Intelligence’s heat index, the data is not driven by sales numbers, but instead examines consumer engagement based on three pillars: social media, earned media, and website traffic. All of these brands have successfully leveraged these three pillars to make their way to the top.
SugarTop Buddery’s placement on this list comes as no surprise. We wrote about this vertically-integrated company recently, where we admired their vintage ‘70s style complemented by environmentally conscious standards. The result? Seriously good weed, or as they call it, Good Smokes.
And then there’s Siskiyou Sungrown, which was recognized as one of Oregon’s hottest homegrown brands last summer. This company is all about letting nature do the work, and clearly it’s paid off, landing a number-six ranking.
Number-one ranked brand Luminous Botanicals has nailed the tonics, oils, and tinctures market, with gently-branded products for various uses, as well as a tasty-looking sun syrup. Number-two ranked brand Green Source Gardens reflects a common theme in this list: ecocentric farms that care deeply about the environment and quality of the crop they produce.
Congratulations to all of the amazing women-led brands that made the ranks. Here’s the full list:
Pioneer Intelligence leverages data to benchmark marketing performance of consumer-facing cannabis brands. Built by a group of experienced and passionate marketers and data scientists, Pioneer helps industry stakeholders better understand how communications strategies resonate with audiences. In early 2021, Pioneer launched its first products, a suite of marketing performance scorecards. These reports present actionable data across three focus areas: social media, earned media and web-related activities. More information can be found on the company’s website, https://pioneer.buzz.
Disclaimer: Pioneer currently has more than 680 brands in their active pool with hundreds more in their pipeline. (Pipeline brands require six months of data before being added to the active pool.) Lists of both active and pipeline brands can be found at pioneer.buzz/brands. If you would like to request your brand be tracked by Pioneer, please email [email protected].

first time tandem nurser--hopefully
me, too. DS is 13 months old. Want to tandem nurse but my supply is dwindling and nipple pain is realllly bad. I am going to start mother's milk tea this week. I've always been a soaker with huge supply so this is a new experience for me. And I battled thrush for 12 weeks at the beginning so the nipple pain is not, shall we say, a pleasant memory for me. . .it's very similar (but not actually thrush) and I just want to know when it's going to get better!
DS nurses 2-5 times per day and at least 4 times a night
Not sure how I feel about night nursing him when newborn baby arrives, but I do not feel he is ready to nightwean at all!
I also feel like I'm struggling with food intake b/c of nausea. I am not a tiny woman, and I love eating, but b/c of all-day-sickness I am really having trouble eating enough and feel tired, miserable and sometimes even dizzy/low blood pressure!
This is so different from my first pregnancy, which was a total walk in the park
The best part is nursing allows me to lay down and sometimes catch a catnap with DS!

In case you didn’t know, there was a comic book convention of sorts this past weekend. And at said convention, Warner Bros. screened the first trailer for one of their 2016 entries into the Great Comic Book Movie Wars: Director David Ayer’s Suicide Squad, starring Will Smith, Margot Robbie and Jared Leto.
And, because it’s Comic Con, that trailer leaked to the internets. So Warners decided, officially, to release it, all shiny and HD.
So, listen. Firstly, everyone looks good. Robbie fits the bill as the Joker’s muse/moll Harley Quinn, Smith will always work as a dude holding a gun, and Leto seems to be carving out some space as his own Clown Prince of Crime.
But sweet jeebus, why does everything DC does have to feel like a dirge? I get that Marvel has positioned themselves as the Fun One and DC seems to have decided they have to be the Serious One, but if ever there was a concept that should feel pulpy it’s the Suicide Squad: villains that are forcibly rehabbed into being heroes — and if they refuse they’ll be both killed and left to take the blame. I’m not saying Suicide Squad should be a comedy, but would it kill them to give us something that looks like it won’t be a treatise on Depression as a Superheroic State?
As a great man once asked, Why So Serious?
Marc Bernardin is the Deputy Editor of Playboy.com. He just got back from Comic-Con and is fresh out of pithy.

Tamaskan Dog Lifespan
Looking to adopt a Tamaskan Dog and want to know what is the average age for Tamaskan Dog to die?
According to US breed survey, an average lifespan of Tamaskan Dog is 14-16 years with some living 4 years more that what is expected.
If you own or thinking to have a Tamaskan Dog, understanding the Tamaskan Dog life span is important when caring for these dogs.
"How long do Tamaskan Dogs live" is one of the hardest question, many pet owners ask themselves.
We all know that these Tamaskan Dogs cannot stay with us forever, so it is vital that we understand the perils of old age and their average life expectancy of Tamaskan Dog.
There are many factors that affect the lifespan of Tamaskan Dog, including breed, size and the general health of the animal.
These factors can help answer the questions on most Tamaskan Dog pet owner’s minds.
How Long Do Dog's Live For?
Lifespans for certain medium dog breeds: Australian Shepherd (12-15 years), Chinese Shar-Pei (12-14 years), Cocker Spaniel (13-15 years), Poodle (12-15 years), Whippet (12-15 years), Puli (10-15 years), Welsh Springer Spaniel (13-15 years), Bulldog (10-12 years), Boxer (10-12 years), Chow Chow (11-13 years), Curly-Coated Retriever (11-13 years) and French Bulldog (11-13 years).

Tamaskan Dog Information
The Tamaskan is a good family dog, being gentle with children and accepting of other dogs. His high intelligence makes him an excellent working dog and the Tamaskan has been known to exceed in agility and obedience as well as sled racing. This pack dog prefers not to be left alone for long periods of time. It is better suited to other human or canine company. Be sure you are this dog's pack leader, providing plenty of daily mental and physical exercise to avoid separation anxiety. The objective in training this dog is to achieve pack leader status. It is a natural instinct for a dog to have an order in its pack. When we humans live with dogs, we become their pack. The entire pack cooperates under a single leader. Lines are clearly defined. You and all other humans MUST be higher up in the order than the dog. That is the only way your relationship can be a success.

Timbermen on Hiatus for 2022
Unfortunately, the Nanaino Timberman has had to make the tough decision to not participate in the upcoming 2022 WCSLA season and will be taking a year hiatus with a return in 2023. This decision was not made easily, but the logistics of finding a new management group during the last two years of COVID uncertainty has proven to be too much of a hurdle to make it work this year.
In the meantime, the team will continue to look for a new management group to take over. Any interested individuals or groups who may have an interest in moving the team forward can contact team president Shawn Swanson (email@example.com) to discuss further. Please contact the Commissioner Jamie Scott for more information.

While Pope Francis calls for a deeper understanding of just war, and acknowledges the importance of self defense, he also insists that war is a “monster“: It’s “madness,” a trick of the devil, and a tragedy in which it’s the innocent who pay, very often children.
On his way home from Kazakhstan on September 15, 2002, he recalled an anecdote from his childhood, to reflect on those who have a heart for peace.
Everybody is talking about peace today: For so many years, for 70 years, the United Nations has been talking about peace; they have been making so many speeches about peace. But right now how many wars are going on? The one you mentioned, Ukraine-Russia, now Azerbaijan and Armenia which had stopped for a while because Russia acted as a guarantor: a guarantor of peace here and makes war there… Then there is Syria, 10 years of war, what is going on there for which it never stops? What interests are moving these things? Then there is the Horn of Africa, then northern Mozambique, or Eritrea and a part of Ethiopia, then Myanmar with this suffering people that I love so much, the Rohingya people who go around and around and around like a gypsy and find no peace. But we are in a world war, please…
I remember a personal event, as a child; I was nine years old. I remember hearing the alarm of the biggest newspaper in Buenos Aires sounding: sometimes to celebrate and other times to give bad news. They would sound that alarm – now it doesn’t sound anymore – and it could be heard all over the city.
Mother said, “What’s going on?” We were in the war, the year 1945. A neighbor came to the house, and said, “The alarm sounded …” and she cried, “The war is over!” And I still see Mom and the neighbor crying with joy because the war was over, in a South American country, so far away! These women knew that peace is greater than all wars, and they cried with joy when peace was made. I cannot forget that.
In sharing that personal memory, the Pope asked, “I wonder, I don’t know if our hearts are educated well enough today to cry for joy when we see peace.”
Now, he lamented, “everything has changed,” and there’s an attitude of “if you don’t make war, you are not useful! Then there is the arms business. This is a store of assassins.”
While acknowledging that he didn’t have exact research, he shared:
Someone who understands statistics told me that if you stopped making weapons for a year you would solve all the hunger in the world – I don’t know if that’s true or not. But hunger, education; it’s no use, you can’t because you have to make weapons.
And with that, he shared the story of another group who touched him:
In Genoa a few years ago, three or four years ago, a ship arrived loaded with weapons that was going to transfer them to a bigger ship that was going to Africa, near South Sudan. The dock workers didn’t want to do it; it cost them, but they said, “I won’t cooperate.” It is an anecdote but one that makes one feel a consciousness of peace.

Last night against Ottawa was Thomas’ first game back in Boston since snubbing the President and the Bruins faithful greeted him the one way some people thought they wouldn’t by cheering their heads off for him. As Joe Haggerty of CSNNE.com finds out, it’s a moment that Thomas isn’t going to forget.
“I was pretty certain [it would be a good reaction],” said Thomas. “But having said all that I didn’t take it for granted. I was mentally prepared either way.”
While Boston is one of the more politically active cities in the country, hockey fans there care not for these matters and like Thomas more for his ability to be a game-changing goalie instead. That’s probably for the best as Thomas’ actions could’ve made his life in Boston really difficult, really fast.
Perhaps now we can finally put this whole story to bed… Until Thomas wins the Republican Party nomination for President anyhow.

In a new stir to crackdown on criminals’ exploiting the Dark Web, UK has decided to take stringent action against the miscreant.
UK Home secretary Amber Rudd has announced funding of £9M helping UK law enforcement to tackle those who use the anonymity of dark web that is not indexed by search engines for illegal activities such as the selling of firearms, drugs, malware and people.
The announcement came amidst her latest speech at the National Cyber Security Centre’s CyberUK 2018 conference in Manchester.
On the first day of the conference, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and National Crime Agency (NCA) released a joint report showing that UK businesses are suffering more cyber-attacks than ever before.
More than £5m is known reported to be used to support the police to establish dedicated cyber-crime units to investigate and pursue cyber criminals at a regional and local level.
The announcement comes eight months after a report by think tank Reform called for an overhaul of UK policing, including recruiting volunteers from the private sector to fight cyber-crime, a huge increase in digital budgets, and upskilling officers.
Currently only 30% of local police forces have a cyber-capability that reaches the minimum standard. In March, a Parliament Street report revealed that UK police forces had spent only £1,320,341 on cyber-crime training courses in the past three years, with some spending much more on training than others.
The funding is part of £50m of newly allocated money to ensure police and prosecutors have the capabilities they need to tackle cyber-crime at a national, regional and local level during 2018/2019.
Making the announcement in Manchester, the home secretary is expected to say that the dark web is a “dangerous place” where anonymity emboldens people to break the law in the “most horrifying” of ways.
Describing the dark web as a “platform of dangerous crimes and horrific abuse” with a “sickening shopping list of services and products”, Rudd will say that the £9m in funding will enable UK police to tackle criminals who operate in this part of cyber space.

My Favorite Picture Books of 2011!
by Eric Rohmann
Eric Rohmann's illustrations are fantastic, but it is the heartwarming story of the love between a boy and his dog, a love which lasts beyond grave, that makes this my favorite picture book of 2011! This can be used as a Halloween tale, or a tale for those dealing with the loss of a pet, but in truth it is just a great story. I should make it clear that I'm not a dog person, since having my own child I am actually scared of most dogs. Still I have nothing but respect for the bond that children and their pets share.
by William Joyce
Fantastical illustrations accompany this lovely steam-punk tale of how the moon, the man in the moon, and the Guardians of Childhood (Santa, Mother Goose, etc) came to be.

Betty Bunny is a handful, a handful who loves chocolate cake, and has to learn how to be patient so that she can eat her chocolate cake. Betty Bunny's family, particularly her siblings play a big role in her story, and the illustrations make the Bunny family look like fashion models, in a good way. Betty Bunny is one of Oscar's favorites, thus this is not the first time I've mentioned the book. To read my first review about Betty Bunny click here.
by Jan Brett
This is perhaps the best Jan Brett book to come out since The Mitten in 1989. The story is of a wayward troll looking to find a home with all the animals except his own. In all honesty, Christmas comes up at the end, but it didn't have to be a Christmas book - alas I'm not Jan Brett's editor, I don't get a say. However, if you are going to have a Christmas story this is certainly one of the best out there. It is about family, it is about love, its got all the things the holiday should be about.

Pay for chief executives in the Dallas-Fort Worth area is good, but lags well behind the leading markets in the nation, according to a study of data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics by On Numbers.
CEO salaries in 362 markets were looked at by On Numbers, which ranked the Bridgeport-Stamford, Conn., market as No. 1. That area's 800 CEOs average $234,030 in annual pay.
The study broke the DFW area into two parts.
The 3,300 CEOs in the Dallas-Plano-Irving area ranked 52nd on the list at $198,250 per year, while the 920 CEOs in the Fort Worth-Arlington area averaged $178,970 per year, putting the area at a rank of 114th.
The lowest-paying area for CEOs was Jackson, Miss., where the area's 740 chief executives averaged $96,770 per year.
On Numbers is a feature of American City Business Journals, the parent company of the Dallas Business Journal. It has a database of the 362 markets included in the study.

Jottings from my Life in Tyrone, Ireland – Introduction
In this book “Jottings from my Life in Tyrone, Ireland” Elizabeth La Hiff Lambert, recalls some memories of her idyllic childhood in Cloon House, Gort and later in her mother’s family home Tyrone House near Kilcolgan in County Galway.
The book is a real gem and an important piece of our history, as it gives us a great insight into the privileged life of a member of the Landed Society in the west of Ireland in the 19th Century.
Her writings were edited by her niece Margaret Lahiff in 1979 and I was delighted to find a copy, published here for educational purposes only, when I was researching the Lamberts of Athenry 1999.
It is not known exactly when these “jottings” were written by my Aunt Elizabeth. They were probably finished in the early 1930s, but written over a period of many years before that.
She and her husband, with their two young sons, came to California, U.S.A., in 1906. She passed away in Santa Monica, California, on March 20, 1949. The memoires were given to my father,
Henry Lahiff, a brother of whom she was very fond.
The photograph on the cover was taken by my father when he visited his old home, Tyrone House, in 1904/05.
The captions of the various sections are mine to help the reader. Also, as few editorial changes as possible have been made. However, due to a few discrepancies, I have made some notes designated numerically in the Appendix, which includes an explanation of the various spellings of the surname, “La Hiff-”
Margaret Lahiff, Ed
Just a mile from the picturesque town of Gort, County Galway, Ireland, I was born of French and English parents. My mother was a daughter of Christopher French St. George, of Tyrone in that county. She was one of seventeen children: ten daughters and seven sons.
Her father dropped the title which his family held, his aunts being Lady Harriet St. George and Lady Matilda Bermingham. His wife was of Irish descent. My father’s parents were of French extraction. They came to Ireland at an early date, and their name was La Hiff. I was the eighth of ten brothers and sisters; my sister Tilly, of whom I was very fond, and James were the youngest. Our father, Daniel La Hiff, was a younger brother who got his share of the estate after his father’s death.
Long before my existence my father’s brother, Thomas, was celebrating his twenty-first birthday and, being the eldest son, he came into possession of thousands of acres. This was called the Kiltartan lands, which ran right into County Clare. Everything suitable was done as befitted the occasion; bonfires were lit all over that part of the county and dancing for the tenantry indulged in up to the late hours of the night – or rather the morning. When they were all well refreshed, they found their way home as best they could. Invitations had been sent out to all his relations and neighbours for miles around.
They all came: The Goughs of Lough Cutra Castle, Lord Gort, the Gregories of Coole Park, the Persses of Roxborough, the Blakes, de Blaquieres, de Stackpools, and others. Our people owned so much land that the La Hiffs had become the third largest landowners in the county; Lord Clanbrock was first and Lord Clanricard, second.
The jollifications were kept up for days on end, much to the disgust of the servants who were busy night and day preparing food and drink. When everything was over and they had settled down to normal again, Uncle Tom started off one morning for a hunt close by when he decided to take a water jump that happened to be on the lawn just a little way from the house. Unfortunately, his mount threw him off and his head struck a stone that protruded on the other side of the pond. His skull was fractured, so the result was disastrous for him. He partly recovered but a little later he had a relapse and, losing his mind completely, he never spoke again. A residence was purchased for him in the suburbs of Dublin. It was a beautiful old place, called Elmhurst, where he resided for the rest of his life. Everybody around Dublin knew his appearance as he was driven out every day in a carriage drawn by a magnificent pair of greys. Although he took no notice of anyone in his family, he seemed to take an interest in the horses. One day when he noticed a bay horse instead of the grey in the pair, he absolutely refused to sit behind them. And all the efforts of his doctor, who accompanied him, could not prevail on him to take his morning drive. “‘
During all these years his property was in chancery and could not be interfered with, as his recovery was still hoped for. The next of kin, his brother Henry, had been drowned while bathing, so the third son, my Uncle James, was looked on as the next heir, and my father and his sisters came in for additional allowances. So, you see, there is a lot of truth in that old saying “It’s an ill wind that blows nobody any good.” Uncle Tom spent 57 silent years in the valley of the shadow of death while his sisters and brothers enjoyed the best that this world could give them.

CROSS Safety Report
Failures of cold formed steel floor systems during construction
This report is over 2 years old
This report describes numerous collapses during construction of cold formed steel floor systems caused by lack of bracing/fastening and overloading of an incomplete structure.
Key Learning Outcomes
For structural design engineers:
It is good practice to include in the project design documents the requirement that cold formed steel joists be properly braced before loading.
It is good practice to not load cold formed steel joist systems until properly braced.
For code and standards writers:
Consider the addition of prescriptive requirements for bracing cold formed steel floor systems, similar to those adopted in New York City.

Our secure and confidential safety reporting system gives professionals the opportunity to share their experiences to help others. If you would like to know more, please visit the reporting to CROSS-US page.
The correspondent reports that in recent years there have been collapses during construction of cold formed steel floors. This is not just a recent trend, as several accidents of this type have been recorded since 2005. Although not very numerous, these accidents have led to serious injuries and even fatalities. Almost all had a common cause: floor overload during construction. Manufacturers’ instructions clearly define the allowable floor loads, but these refer to a system where the joists are properly attached to decking and braced. In some construction operations such bracing and fastening does not immediately follow the installation of the cold formed joists, leaving them in a potentially unstable condition. Of course, construction loads should not exceed manufacturer’s specifications, but several incidents have occurred when a lower load of construction material was deposited, and collapse occurred because the floor was unbraced. Collapses have occurred under a variety of loading, including depositing CMU, studs bunched together, or concrete being cast. In some cases, the depositing of the construction material occurred when the material was delivered by a lumber yard. Commonly the load might not have been extreme, but it was concentrated over a small area at mid-span.
Almost all had a common cause: floor overload during construction
The potential of local instability of cold formed floor joists is such that one should consider a cold steel formed floor as a one way spanning system. Despite this the IBC 2015 does not include specific requirements for special inspection of bridging.
The New York City Buildings Department issued a recent bulletin, with numerous and specific instructions, with the intent to curb these types of accidents. Through this bulletin, the following provisions related to special inspection of cold-formed steel were added to the New York City Building Code.
From Table 1704.3.4, Cold Formed Steel Light-Frame Construction, Bracing:
‘5.a. Verify that temporary bracing, shoring, jacks, etc., are installed, and not removed until no longer necessary, in accordance with the approved construction documents and approved erection drawings.
5.b. Verify that permanent bracing, web stiffeners, bridging, blocking, wind bracing, etc., are installed in accordance with the approved construction documents and approved erection drawings.’
Experience has shown that because this special inspection might occur at a late date, the requirements are not capable of detecting missing or improper bracing before construction operations take place and allow accidents to happen.
Expert Panel Comments

An Expert Panel comment on the reports we receive. They use their experience to help you understand what can be learned from the reports. If you would like to know more, please visit the CROSS-US Expert Panel page.
Cold formed steel joists are increasingly employed nationwide, especially in multifamily residential and hotel construction. The stability of traditional wood framing is less critical because of the dimensions (material thickness) of typical wood joists. Wood joists are inherently more stable.
OSHA 1926.750 contains extensive provisions for steel erection, which include cold formed steel framing. 1926.754(a) requires that ‘Structural stability shall be maintained at all times during the erection process.’ While OSHA 1926.750 contains specific provisions for metal decking, column anchorage, beams and columns, open web joists, and system engineered metal buildings, there are no similar specific provisions for cold formed steel framing.
The American Iron and Steel Institute Code of Standard Practice for Cold-formed Steel Structural Framing 2020 Edition (AISI S202-20), Section F6 Temporary Bracing, requires, ‘The installer shall determine, furnish, and install all temporary bracing for the cold-formed steel structural framing. This temporary bracing shall secure the framing against loads that are expected to be encountered during installation.’
Given the increasing use of cold formed steel joists in floor construction, the incidence of problems, and the evolving nature of codes and standards, it may be prudent for structural design specifications and drawings to make special note of the need to properly brace such floor systems before loading.
It may be prudent for structural design specifications and drawings to make special note of the need to properly brace such floor systems before loading

Michael Powell, the new chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, has a reputation for favoring free-market competition over government regulation. With similarly minded Republicans holding a 3-2 edge on the agency's five-member commission, he will have more clout to implement his vision than did his predecessor, William E. Kennard.
Powell wisely argues that he and other regulators should "take our ignorance more seriously," and he recognizes that "our bureaucratic process is too slow to respond to the challenges of Internet time." But Powell, the son of Secretary of State Colin L. Powell, must also be careful to uphold old democratic values like fairness in rapidly evolving new media. The Internet is just as susceptible to anti-competitive, monopolistic pressures as were the railroads in their day.

‘The Hurt Locker’ beats ‘Avatar’ for Best Picture and Best Director at Critics Choice Awards
Awesome!! As we noted in our previous piece, Kathryn Bigelow, director-producer of ‘The Hurt Locker’ happens to also be Cameron’s ex. Glad the serious film won. Enjoyed Avatar but it is NOT serious.
James Cameron’s “Avatar” and Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds” won the most awards at Friday’s Critics’ Choice Awards, but the top honor went to Iraq war drama “The Hurt Locker” and its director-producer Kathryn Bigelow.”Locker” was named best picture and Bigelow best director.
Accepting the best picture prize, screenwriter-producer Mark Boal said the award belongs to Bigelow “for her singular vision, for her endless inspiration and for never taking no as an answer.”
Bigelow had thanked Boal when she accepted the director’s honor, saying, “I stand here really because of one man, and that’s Mark Boal.”
“It’s wonderful to have this honor,” she continued, “but the recognition should also go to the men and women who are in the field to this day.”
“Avatar” was named best action movie and it collected a heap of technical awards, including honors for cinematography, editing, art direction, sound and visual effects.
The “Basterds” cast was the critics’ pick for best ensemble. The film’s villain, Christoph Waltz, was named best supporting actor and Tarantino won for his original screenplay.
“There’s really only one group of people to thank,” Tarantino said, “and that’s the actors who actually took it from the printed page and put it up on the screen. My material is not easy. It’s hard. I cannot have dumb actors do my material.”…

All sport leaders have one thing in mind when we get to lead a sport in our local community - to build a sustainable, successful, and scalable sport development eco system, we need to align ourselves with the international stakeholders, build bridges between tradition and innovation, and commit fully to shaping the future of the sport of figure skating towards a culture of innovation.
A digital and cooperative approach to make figure skating more attractive (Around the Rings)
The second and final session of the Figure Skating Marketing Summit, organised by the Chinese Taipei Skating Union, was a vivid proof of what can be achieved working with digital and cooperative minds to grow the sport and making it more attractive for fans and sponsors alike. Exclusive digital formats, educational content, virtual judging, and an athlete-oriented approach will help engaging with broader audiences.
"Over the past two days, we have all listened to international experts sharing their insights and experiences on how we could face challenges and seize new opportunities. By identifying actions, approaches and experiences that will help developing the sport of figure skating, we recognise the future of our sport is digital." said CTSU President Tiao-Ching Hung
Promoting figure skating is not so easy in Taiwan. By upgrading live broadcasting standards and its national tournaments, Taiwan aims to seize the digital opportunities in the post-pandemic era.
Scheduled to take place on September 27 and 28, the event aims to gather stakeholders in the industry to discuss topics such as the marketing potential of over-the-top media service platforms, the benefits of the "International Skating Union virtual judging system" and digital broadcasting of winter sports.

Tell Sacramento You Support Oversight of Delta Tunnel Spending!
This petition had 1,538 supporters
Tell Sacramento You Support Oversight of Delta Tunnel Spending
Please sign the following petition expressing your support for SB 204. We need to move quickly, as Metropolitan Water District of Southern California is seeking signatures to stop this legislation. We need as many signatures as possible by close of business March 7, 2019. Also please call your State Senator and Assemblymember to express your support for SB 204. Click here to find your state legislator’s contact information.
Dear Senator Dodd, and my local legislators,
I support SB204. The Department of Water Resources, the State Water Contractors, and the WaterFix Joint Power Authorities need to be subject to legislative oversight. The decisions made by these entities regarding water management, water transfers, water planning, and project spending must be made public to ensure transparency and the right of water ratepayers and California taxpayers to participate in the process.
SB 204 will help protect the public interest and integrity of democratic processes related to California water management for California residents.
Last year, the State Water Contractors and the Department of Water Resources moved forward with extending State Water Contracts as the first step in preparing new water contract extensions for California WaterFix (the Delta tunnels). Fortunately, the Joint Legislative Budget Committee (JLBC) held a balanced meeting with JLBC leadership promising follow through on oversight of water contract extensions for California WaterFix.
State Senator Bill Dodd took this promise to heart and on behalf of his office and the legislative Delta Caucus has brought forward SB 204.
This bill would require the Department of Water Resources, State Water Contractors, and the CA WaterFix Joint-Powers-Authorities (DCDCA and DCFA) to notify the legislature of contract negotiations, contract extensions, and financing decisions with ample public notice to ensure proper legislative oversight and public participation in these processes.
To put it simply, DWR, the State Water Contractors, and the WaterFix Joint Power Authorities need to be subject to legislative oversight, especially as WaterFix is the second most expensive public works project in California’s history. SB 204 will help protect the public interest and integrity of democratic processes related to California water management for California residents.

How are you doing? I hope your week is off to a great start? I had the intention of posting this look yesterday but the day got so busy and I apologize for that. I own a few boyfriend jeans but recently looked into getting the girlfriend jeans. The girlfriend jeans is similar to the boyfriend but hugs on the the body curves better while still a little slouchy. I am sharing my take on how to style the girlfriend jeans and I decided to wear it with the Sarria Top by Style Mafia via Shopbop.
This shirt is absolutely beautiful while the price point is a big up there, the details on the shirt does justify it IMO. It retails for $145. It is the kind of shirt that you can wear 10years from now and still guaranteed to be a conversation starter.
It has a zipper on the back and buttons on the sleeve. I decided on risk it all and go braless for this look lol. This is a first for me for this type of design but I wanted to show the details and beauty of the shirt(side note I forgot to buy a nude color slip which you should have in your closet) I am ordering one as I type this. Thanks to the power of photoshop you can’t see anything that doesn’t need to be seen lol (wink.)
A statement shirt like this one by Style Mafia works perfectly for a girlfriend jeans. Mine are by Express by the way and currently marked down. I love that it has a distressed look, gives it character IMO (in my opinion)
I am wearing the shirt in a size small, which fits pretty well but I had a bit of a hard time pulling it over my head. I do have a long torse though. I’ll recommend ordering your regular size.
Here are a few statement tops that are lower priced but I absolutely love too.
If you already aren’t, follow me on Instagram and check out my Instagram stories on @titispassion to keep up with daily fashion tips & more.Thank you for reading, enjoy the rest of your day!

Mozart’s dark and impassioned Piano Concerto No. 20 helped inspire the turbulent music of oncoming Romanticism’s greatest figure–Beethoven. Fast forward a century and we come to Bruckner, whose hero was another enfant terrible–Richard Wagner–in whose memory the massive, broad-sweeping, and brass-laden Symphony No. 7 was written.

Leeb Hardness Test Blocks : We offer wide range of Test Block for Digital Portable Hardness Tester of all range and scale. We offer low, medium and high hardness test block with all scale Rockwell, Brinell and Vickers hardness tester.
Using the Genuine Leeb Scales (HL) : The Leeb rebound method was invented in 1975. Since then, Proceq has maintained the genuine Leeb standard HL. That means, a measurement of a sample showing a result of 750 HLD by Proceq in 1975, done with the first generation Equotip, would still deliver the exact same result today, done with the most recent generation. With Equotip test blocks, end users can check if their testers conform with this hardness unit, similarly to using a ruler for length measurements. During a Leeb hardness measurement, an impact body with a hard ball indenter is launched by spring energy against the sample, and then rebounds. The ratio of the rebound velocity vr to the impact velocity vi multiplied by 1000 yields the hardness value HL (Leeb hardness).


VGM fights back with data
WATERLOO, Iowa – Results from The VGM Group’s “Supplier Impact Survey” debunk CMS’s claims that its competitive bidding program hasn’t affected access to home medical equipment.
Forty-one percent of HME providers report they have reduced their patient service area 1% to 24% due to the phased-in rollout of bid pricing to rural areas on Jan. 1 and July 1.
“So many folks are saying, I’m beyond 25 miles (from the patient), I can’t go,” said John Gallagher, vice president of government relations for VGM. “And therein lies the access issue for patients.”
Thirty-eight percent of providers who completed the survey report that 75% to 100% of their patient base lives in rural areas.
More than anything, Gallagher says the survey shows that CMS is setting up a two-tiered system for Medicare beneficiaries: One tier for those who can pay out-of-pocket for the equipment they need but are having a hard time getting, and one tier for those who can’t.
“So when CMS tells Congress, ‘We cut utilization by 25%,’ sure they did, because patients are paying out of pocket or going without,” he said.
The problem is only going to get worse, Gallagher says. Only 19% of providers reported that 60% or more of their business is Medicare-related, and 74% say they are billing or plan to bill more claims non-assigned.
While CMS may turn a blind eye to these figures, Gallagher says members of Congress, particularly from the Plains states and the Midwest, aren’t.
“Those folks haven’t been engaged because competitive bidding hadn’t impacted them,” he said. “Now they’re engaged because the patient population is heavily (dependent) on Medicare.”
VGM plans to conduct the survey on a quarterly basis to brief lawmakers on the situation on a rolling basis.
“I’m sure CMS’s response will be, ‘This is just a snapshot,’ ‘This is an industry grab,’” said Gallagher. “But if we have a good year to two-year trend, that will be important going forward.”

Organic Gardening. Monday , April 02nd , 2018 - 02:31:53 AM
When we talk about of garden preservation, garden soil is an important factor. It’s so important that you should give your garden soil enough care first before you start to treat your plants or do other activities. Your garden soil need to be feed with some good organic materials. This way, the condition of your soil (particularly the ones suffer from erosion) will get better, in which it improves their texture and ability to control water .

Harold Adamson (police officer)
|This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (March 2009)|
|Chief of the Metropolitan Toronto Police|
|Preceded by||James Page Mackey|
|Succeeded by||Jack Ackroyd|
Adamson's first foray into law enforcement was at the age of 18 when he came across a burglar in his home and hit him with his lunch bucket. He joined the Scarborough Police Department the next year.
In 1953, he came to public attention when, as a police inspector, he investigated the disappearance of Scarborough teenager Marion McDowell and organized what was then the largest manhunt in Toronto history for the missing girl. The case was never solved.
By 1956, Adamson was deputy chief of the department which was amalgamated with other Toronto area police forces to become the Metropolitan Toronto Police in 1957. In 1970 he became the new force's third chief. with the retirement of James Page Mackey.
The police force in the 1970s had to cope with a growing population, rising crime rate, and declining respect for authority. The Toronto Police faced public anger and charges of racism following the fatal shooting of Albert Johnson by a police officer in 1979. A royal commission under Justice Donald Morand investigated the police during his tenure and found acts of police brutality and police officers giving false testimony under oath.
Mel Lastman, mayor of the Metropolitan Toronto borough of North York in the 1970s said that Adamson responded to complaints and "outlawed displays of bigotry on the force, instituted new procedures following the Morand report into allegations of police brutality and commissioned the Hickling Johnson Report on adapting to the future." Adamson also pushed to recruit more ethnic minorities to the police force and oversaw changes such as improving officer training, and expanding work among youth and in crime prevention.
Of being police chief, Adamson once said, "this is a job that will never give you a swelled head. I didn't accept it with any great degree of relish. It was very nice to be made chief of police, but I certainly knew I wasn't in for any picnic."

We needed two bubbles today in the glorious sunshine. Thanks to Phil Stubbings for stepping up to lead the first bubble.
Our journey along the spring line road, down through Uffington, up to Faringdon and flat to Brize Norton was a joy for all. As we sat in the welcome shade at Humble Bumble chatting over snacks and drinks the only thing missing was some action on the cricket pitch.
Things got a little more interesting on the return leg. Within a mile of the restart we were due to go down Abingdon Lane. Unexpectedly, this was a farm track. (Note to ride leader/planner: do a bit more research.) Those riders with narrow tires and bling bikes, a clear majority as it turned out, changed our route to take a more circuitous route through Curbridge.
Thereafter we enjoyed the tail wind home. Shedding riders, who had other obligations, along the way, four of us returned to the market place a little bit after our target of 1:00pm.


Denso, Sonnen, and Supermicro Join GaN Systems Presenting at APEC 2019
Gallium Nitride (GaN) has reached prime time status as more and more GaN-based electronics go mainstream. The increasing adoption and popularity of GaN are evident in the presentations, displays, and demonstrations to be presented by GaN Systems and its customers and partners at the upcoming Applied Power Electronics Conference & Exposition (APEC) conference in Anaheim, Calif., March 17 - 21, 2019.
One of the most highly anticipated APEC Industry Session presentations is, "GaN E-HEMT Performance and Reliability in Datacenter, Solar, and Wireless Power Production Systems," happening Thursday, March 21, 2019. In this session, IS16, GaN Systems CEO Jim Witham and executives from leading companies will discuss the importance of using GaN power semiconductors in their applications.
Denso, an automotive electronics firm, will speak about the paradigm shift happening in the transportation market and how smaller and lighter electronics using wide-bandgap materials like GaN enable smaller and lighter electric vehicles.
Sonnen, an energy storage solution provider, will describe the challenges they faced in developing their next generation products and the improvements made using GaN, including decreasing the bill of materials (BoM) cost.
Supermicro, an innovator of high-efficiency server technology, will explain how increasing data center efficiency is reducing Total Cost to the Environment (TCE) and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of data centers.
"Meeting customers and hearing how GaN has enabled them to reach new milestones brings the realization that energy-efficient, reliable, and cost-effective GaN power semiconductor devices are proven," says Jim Witham. "I am pleased that Denso, Sonnen, and Supermicro will share their stories about how they are leveraging GaN to build systems designed to be more efficient, reduce cost, and help protect and improve the environment."
Sonnen CTO Carlos Restrepo added, "Developing the most efficient and affordable high-tech energy storage systems is key to our vision of clean and affordable energy for all. Therefore, our focus must be on crafting the right technologies suited to meet the challenges of a decentralized and sustainable energy future. The ability to wield power is central to our mission at Sonnen and for this, a key component in that recipe is GaN and we're excited to talk about how we're able to make major leaps in our next generation systems with GaN Systems."
In addition to the panel session, GaN Systems' experts will present in several industry sessions in Devices and Controllers in Adapter Application, Vehicle Electrification, and Wireless as well as participating in two Rap Sessions.

Background: There is no consensus regarding the best route of intranasal delivery of corticosteroids in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). The study objective of this work was to compare the impact of mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) vs mometasone nasal irrigation in the management of CRS patients who have not undergone sinus surgery. Methods: A double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial was conducted in adults with CRS. Individuals with nasal polyps and/or history of sinus surgery were excluded. Patients were randomized to receive 8 weeks of either MFNS or mometasone nasal irrigation. The primary outcome measure was change in the 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) score between the 2 groups. Secondary outcome measures included patient global response to treatment and Lund-Kennedy endoscopy scores. Results: A total of 43 participants completed the study (n = 22, MFNS; n = 21,mometasone nasal irrigation). Fourteen (64%) participants in the MFNS group and 17 (81%) in the mometasone lavage group had a clinically meaningful improvement in SNOT-22 scores with a proportion difference of 17% (95% confidence interval [CI], −9% to 44%). The least-squares (LS) mean difference between the 2 groups for SNOT-22 was −8.6 (95% CI, −17.7 to 0.58; p = 0.07), whereas the LS mean difference between the 2 groups for Lund-Kennedy endoscopy scores was 0.16 (95% CI, −0.84 to 1.15; p = 0.75). No adverse events were associated with the study. Conclusion: Both MFNS and mometasone nasal irrigations are beneficial in symptom management of CRS. Our study suggests that patients who perform mometasone lavage do better in a clinically meaningful way, but our results are not definitive and further studies are warranted.
- chronic rhinosinusitis
- nasal lavage
- topical intranasal corticosteroid

A Nanaimo woman battled against the clock and grabbed as many groceries as she could on Saturday.
Yvonne Werning won Buy-Low Foods’ Win Big contest and had one minute to spend $500. Werning, a regular at the Fifth Street store, said after she was notified that she had won the shopping spree, she scouted the University Village Mall store to plan her movements. She went for meat first, with two roasts among her haul, followed by cleaning and then paper towel aisles.
“The boys (her two sons) are taking the roasts home to their wives. I’m invited for dinner,” Werning said with a laugh. “I like my coffee in the morning … I got my dish soap, laundry soap, that’s really about it.”
Lynn Johnson, Buy-Low Foods’ Nanaimo location front-end manager, said the company-wide contest had been running for six weeks, with giveaways every week, with Werning taking home the grand prize.

Henry Cejudo has been reported to have submitted two samples to USADA.
Having remained out of action for over two years, Cejudo has been hinting at returning to competition ever since retiring. The former two-division UFC champion announced that he would be hanging up the gloves after his most recent outing against Dominick Cruz in May 2020.
Henry Cejudo submits 2 samples to USADA
Last month, ‘Triple C’ gave concrete proof of his plans to fight again in the UFC. In a message shared on his Twitter, Cejudo revealed that he had rejoined the USADA drug testing pool.
According to the USADA Athlete Test History, Henry Cejudo has already submitted two samples to USADA so far in the second quarter of the year.
When Cejudo had announced his return to the testing pool, no submissions had been made. As lightly as some may be taking ‘The Messenger’ in regards to a comeback fight, he seems to have solidified his intentions.
Cejudo calls for two main fights
Another topic of much discussion has been the likely opponent for Henry Cejudo. While he has called for a champ vs. champ fight against the reigning UFC featherweight king Alexander Volkanovski, it may not be his first fight back.
If there’s one thing that pisses off the boss it’s having champions fake retire in a bid to secure a higher purse. UFC president Dana White refused to take Cejudo’s declarations seriously. White is not a fan of the former bantamweight champion’s antics to gain leverage in negotiations and will probably not hand him his desired matchup.
Current UFC bantamweight titleholder Aljamain Sterling is another opponent Cejudo has been targeting for his next fight. The pair recently sat across from each other with Daniel Cormier in an honest discussion about the two.
While TJ Dillashaw’s name has come up in the discussion, the ‘King of Cringe’ has expressed no interest in taking his former opponent on again.

To use the sitting monkey, one had to hold a ceremony at midnight, in which they burned incense inside the cup and made a certain, strange chant. In return, they received greater skill in climbing, an overall boost to abilities that depended on experience, and the power to use the true seeing spell like a shukenja one time a day.
A user had to perform this ceremony nightly in order to retain these powers. However, if they continued this regimen for six months or more, they suffered a permanent change: their toes became as prehensile as a monkey's, able to naturally grasp things like branches, ledges, and ropes. This made it uncomfortable to wear shoes.
As one of the Wo-ha Ui-jung, the sitting bull's powers had most likely at one stage influenced the history of Koryo. However, it was later lost.
In the mid–14th century DR, King Wanang Sun led an expedition to recover three of the Wo-ha Ui-jung. He was successful, discovering the sitting bull, sitting monkey, and standing deer by 1357 DR. He kept the sitting monkey stored in his treasure rooms.
