Learning in the 21st century: For the last decade, educators have stressed the importance of the 4 Cs of learning: critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity. These components are embedded in standards and must come to the forefront as we shape student skills and learning environments for success in the digital age.
Classrooms without technology are no longer an option–nor is tech simply a fancy but meaningless addition to student work. Teachers are currently seeking ways to effectively integrate technology directly into instructional design and learning. A crucial component of technology-infused learning is multimedia, or content that uses a variety of forms, such as text, audio, video, images, and animation, to provide a more holistic and individualized approach to communication. Students must also consider a target audience and the medium they use to best communicate their message.
Enter Adobe’s Creative Cloud Suite, with 22 industry-standard apps that enhance learning and turn students into creators.
My co-author Holly Clark and I have come up with this simple framework to help teachers utilize technology–and multimedia–in meaningful and relevant ways for student learning. Adobe’s Creative Cloud suite is perfect for this. Classroom tech should help to:
- Make thinking visible- This could look as simple as having a student screenshot their written work or using an audio recording feature to explain their understanding of an idea or process.
- Cultivate student voice- In 2020, if we are not hearing from each learner in our classrooms and allowing them to have voice and choice in their learning, we are doing something wrong. With today’s tech, learners can choose appropriate media that best shares their learning. Since not every student prefers using written language to express understanding, they personalize their communication by adding graphics or video to convey their understanding. They can even add music or voiceover narration! Giving each student a voice levels the field and equips them with ownership of their learning.
- Enable students to share work- We know that grades alone are not a great motivator. Fortunately, learners today can go beyond the traditional digital turn-in protocols that include only their teacher, with a grade as the ultimate goal. But choosing an audience for a message inspires learners to put their heart and soul into their work. Taking a page from the blogger and social media influencer playbook, students can now utilize the platform to best communicate their message. Tech that supports this goal provides choices like graphics, video and audio to enhance the message.
Multimedia is the key that unlocks the door to the thinking process. Students have a choice in how they demonstrate their learning. Adobe empowers learners to harness the tools that cultivate the 4 Cs, become creators–and share their ideas with the world.

Senior Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Monday said it was unfortunate that Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar was “busy in Goa’s politics” while terrorists were attacking the army. “Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar is sitting in the Goa (BJP) office distributing (poll) tickets while our army base camps are being attacked by terrorists,” he told reporters here.

“It is unfortunate that the Defence Minister is busy in Goa’s politics while terrorists are attacking our army,” Raut added. The Sena MP said Parrikar may have started his political career from Goa but currently, he is India’s Defence Minister.
Three civilians, working as labourers, were today killed in a pre-dawn terror attack by militants on a General Engineering Reserve Force camp near the LoC in Akhnoor sector of Jammu and Kashmir. Meanwhile, Maharashtra BJP spokesperson Madhav Bhandari said not much importance should be attached to Raut’s remarks.
“Those who should be sitting in Mumbai and responding to corruption charges in connection with the BMC’s road repair scam are going to Goa and levelling allegations against the BJP government there,” he said. “People do not pay heed to such baseless allegations. This will be proved within the next few days when the people of Goa vote,” said Bhandari.

And one player, former No. 1 pick Anthony Mantha, has not come close to meeting expectations.
"Very, very, very disappointing," said Wings Senior Vice President Jim Devellano, who saw the Griffins play their final three games, including Sunday's 3-1 win, over the Toronto Marlies. "And I say that with a lot of sadness. Coming out of junior, we had such high hopes for him."
What the fracking frack????
Devellano should shut the hell up and retire. Mantha is a struggling kid and he doesn't need to be embarrassed by the Wings front office.
I guess they've given up on him already. Wow. Total BS.


Senate Foreign Relations advances Nides nomination; Cruz, Hagerty, Rubio vote no
Cruz also asked that a vote on State Department nominee Barbara Leaf be delayed until the committee meeting

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday to approve former Deputy Secretary of State Tom Nides’s nomination to be U.S. ambassador to Israel, with just three senators — Ted Cruz (R-TX), Bill Hagerty (R-TN) and Marco Rubio (R-FL) — voting no.
The Nides nomination was advanced to the full Senate as part of a block of more than 30 other nominations, including former Sen. Tom Udall (D-NM), the nominee to be ambassador to New Zealand; Laura Holgate, the nominee to be the U.S. representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency; and former Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ), the nominee to be ambassador to Turkey.
The committee was also set to vote on Barbara Leaf’s nomination to be assistant secretary of State for Near Eastern affairs, but Cruz asked that a committee vote on Leaf be delayed until the committee’s next meeting. Leaf is currently the National Security Council’s senior director for the Middle East.
Cruz told Jewish Insider Tuesday afternoon that he voted against Nides because he disagrees with the Biden administration’s Israel policy.
“The Biden administration in 10 months has significantly undermined Israel, including in particular their move to try to open a Palestinian consulate in Jerusalem, which is designed to elevate Palestinian claims of sovereignty to Jerusalem and undermine Israel’s claims of sovereignty. And Nides is who they’ve picked to [execute their policy],” Cruz said.
During the hearing, Nides expressed his support for reopening the consulate.
Cruz also accused the Biden administration of failing to adequately support the Abraham Accords, the 2020 agreements that normalized relations between Israel and several Arab states.
Nides vocally supported the Abraham Accords during his confirmation hearing, during which Cruz asked no questions.
In a statement to JI, Hagerty spokesperson Judd Deere likewise cited the consulate issue as a major factor in the senator’s decision to vote against Nides.
“When the Trump Administration fully and faithfully implemented the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995, it rightly recognized Jerusalem as the eternal and undivided capital of the State of Israel,” Deere said. “Senator Hagerty believes that President Biden’s plan to reopen a U.S. consulate for the Palestinians in Jerusalem would undermine this recognition, and is opposed by the Government of Israel, so he could not support a nominee to be U.S. Ambassador to Israel who will not stand with Israel on this central issue.”
Hagerty’s vote appears at odds with his largely positive comments about Nides on the day of his confirmation hearing.
Hagerty told JI at the time, “I was pleased with [him] on the whole. I thought he handled himself well in the [hearing],” but declined to say how he would vote until Nides answered his written follow-up questions.
Even though Nides’s nomination has advanced out of the committee process, he’s unlikely to be confirmed in the near future. Cruz is blocking quick confirmation of a raft of Biden State Department nominees in an attempt to force the administration to enforce sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, and indicated he might continue that practice with the latest batch of nominees. He said on Tuesday that he would make an exception for Udall and Flake “out of senatorial courtesy.”
Cruz reportedly told colleagues that he asked that Leaf’s nomination be held on Tuesday because he felt she had falsely answered or failed to adequately answer his written questions.
Asked about the move Tuesday afternoon, he told JI that he would have more details to offer on Wednesday.
According to a memo from Cruz’s office, in her answers to Cruz, Leaf said, “There have been no… arrangements, deals, or agreements contemplated to reduce pressure on Iran.” Cruz’s office contended that answer is untrue, citing news reports about discussions of a potential alternative agreement to the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action or a series of incremental steps back toward the agreement.
Cruz also asked that Leaf provide documentation related to alleged internal State Department guidance instructing officials not to use the term “Abraham Accords.” According to the Cruz memo, Leaf said that, as a nominee and not a current member of the State Department, she was “not in a position” to provide these documents, as is long-running State Department practice.
Secretary of State Tony Blinken denied earlier this year that he had issued or supported any such guidance.
The Texas senator also asked Leaf for details about the State Department’s decision to withhold $130 million in aid to Egypt over human rights concerns, including the government’s dropping of criminal charges against 16 individuals and/or releasing them from prison.
Cruz asked for details about the individuals and their possible affiliations with “groups that promote Islamist ideologies, distribute antisemitic materials or distribute political disinformation.” Cruz’s office claimed that Leaf’s responses did not substantively answer these questions.


- FTX's collapse underscores the need for US lawmakers to learn about crypto and widen regulation, Senator Cynthia Lummis says.
- Lummis introduced a bipartisan crypto bill with Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand in June.
- The Wyoming senator holds bitcoin in a blind trust.
The implosion of cryptocurrency exchange FTX underscores the need for US legislation aimed at greater regulation of digital assets, according to Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis who introduced a bipartisan crypto bill earlier this year.
"I hope [FTX's collapse] highlighted with members of Congress who have not taken the time to learn more about this asset class, that it's time for them to learn more about it so we can engage in proper regulation," Lummis told the Financial Times in an interview published Monday.
The Wyoming senator along with Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York in June unveiled their Responsible Financial Innovation Act, a bill touted as, to date, the most comprehensive bipartisan effort to create a regulatory framework for digital assets.
Lummis is considered one of the more well-versed Washington lawmakers on the subject of crypto. She bought bitcoin in 2013, and in October 2021 reported that it amounted to between $50,000 and $100,000. She told Protocol in June she put her bitcoin holdings in a blind trust after receiving "so much grief" for owning the cryptocurrency.
Lummis told the FT she wants stricter rules around companies like FTX as they trade, have custody of clients' assets, and are engaged in circular lending practices such as rehypothecation, where the same asset can be lent multiple times.
The senator also said her bill would ban the commingling of customer assets with investments that belong to an exchange. FTX's collapse is rooted in allegations that founder Sam Bankman-Fried used customer assets to support his crypto trading firm, Alameda Research. FTX, once valued at $32 billion, is pursuing Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
Lummis said she's "very hopeful" her bill, which is in the Senate finance committee, is high on the legislative agenda when Congress reconvenes in January. She also told the FT she's working with the US Securities and Exchange Commission to ensure her bill wouldn't create loopholes for some non-crypto companies to evade oversight.


Renting a three-bedroom home is cheaper than owning one in 90% of the U.S., report says
January 21, 2024 | by stockcoin.net
In a recent report, it has been revealed that renting a three-bedroom home is more affordable than owning one in 90% of the United States. The report from Attom, a real-estate data analytics company, analyzed the cost of renting versus owning three-bedroom homes in 338 U.S. counties. The findings showed that home prices continue to rise, making it difficult for potential buyers to enter the market. On the other hand, renting remains a more affordable option, with median rental rates requiring a smaller portion of wages than buying a home in 88% of the counties analyzed. This trend highlights the challenges faced by home buyers in a housing market with rising prices.
Renting vs. Owning: Overview
In the majority of U.S. real estate markets, renting is the more favorable option compared to owning a home. This is especially true in the current housing market, where rising home prices have made it difficult for homebuyers to afford a house. Renting remains more affordable than owning, making it the preferred choice for many individuals and families.
Factors Driving the Housing Market
The housing market is influenced by various factors, including falling mortgage rates and rising home prices. The combination of these factors creates a challenging environment for homebuyers. While mortgage rates have decreased, the increase in home prices offsets any potential savings. As a result, the cost of owning a home remains high.
Another factor impacting the housing market is the “lock-in effect.” This effect occurs when homeowners are hesitant to sell their homes due to the fear of buying another property with higher mortgage rates. This phenomenon has led to a decrease in home sales and further exacerbates the challenges faced by homebuyers.
Comparison of Renting Vs. Owning in Different Locations
When comparing the cost of owning versus renting in different locations, some areas stand out as particularly expensive for homeowners. Honolulu, Brooklyn, and Oakland are deemed the most expensive places to own a home relative to renting. In these areas, owning a home consumes a significant portion of a person’s average wages.
On the other hand, there are locations where owning is more affordable than renting. Riverside County and Wayne County, among others, offer homeownership opportunities that require a smaller share of average wages compared to renting. These findings are based on the assumption that buyers put a 20% down payment on their homes.
Renting and Owning in Various U.S. Counties
An analysis of renting and owning in populous U.S. counties reveals that renting typically requires a smaller share of wages on average. This means that individuals and families who choose to rent can allocate a larger portion of their income towards other expenses or savings. However, there are specific counties where owning a home is more affordable than renting, bucking the overall trend. Such examples should be considered by those weighing their options.
Implications for Homebuyers and Renters
Homebuyers face numerous challenges in the current market conditions. Rising home prices, combined with falling mortgage rates, make it increasingly difficult to find affordable housing options. However, there are advantages and disadvantages to both renting and owning. Renting offers flexibility and lower upfront costs, while owning provides stability and potential long-term financial benefits.
Regional Differences in the Housing Market
There are significant regional differences in rental and home prices across the United States. Affordability varies from one region to another, impacting both potential buyers and renters. High rental and home prices in certain regions can pose obstacles to individuals and families looking to enter the housing market. Understanding these regional differences is crucial for making informed decisions.
Market Trends and Future Outlook
Recent trends in rental and home prices indicate a decline in rents and a rise in home prices. This trend reflects the current challenges faced by homebuyers and the increasing demand for rental properties. Predictions for the future of the housing market suggest continued uncertainty, but factors such as mortgage rates and housing supply will play a significant role in shaping the market.
Financial Considerations for Renting and Owning
There are several factors to consider when deciding between renting and owning, including financial stability, long-term plans, and personal preferences. Evaluating personal financial situations is essential to determine which option is more feasible and advantageous. It is important to assess factors such as income, savings, and expenses to make an informed decision.
Tips for Renters and Homebuyers
For those looking to rent a three-bedroom home, it is advisable to research rental rates in different locations and consider factors such as amenities, commute, and neighborhood safety. It is also essential to establish a budget and prioritize non-negotiables.
For individuals considering purchasing a three-bedroom home, it is crucial to evaluate their financial situation, including credit score, down payment amount, and future financial goals. Researching the housing market and working with a qualified real estate agent can provide valuable insights and guidance.
In conclusion, renting remains the more affordable option in the majority of U.S. real estate markets. Rising home prices and falling mortgage rates have created a challenging environment for homebuyers. While there are regional differences and specific areas where owning is more affordable than renting, renters enjoy greater flexibility and lower upfront costs. It is essential for individuals and families to consider their personal financial situation and long-term goals when making the decision between renting and owning. By carefully evaluating these factors, individuals can make an informed choice that suits their needs and financial capabilities.

A Muslim woman named Nahella Ashraf, 46, recently claimed that she was racially abused whilst on a business trip in London, which then resulted in an anti-racism protest in the city.
According to Ashraf’s claims, she had apparently been spat on and then assaulted by a man who attempted to kick her out of a fish and chip chop and exclaimed that she “shouldn’t be here.”
The authorities are currently investigating this matter further to determine the motives behind the attack and the circumstances leading up to it.
Ms.Ashraf said that she was simply having dinner when a random man had confronted her and as her friend tried to shove the man away from her, one of the staff members stood up to the man.
Always Time for Hate
According to those who were present, they claim that the stranger had stated during the altercation that “people like her, they kill” and then had been thrown out but not before spitting on the face of Ms.Ashraf.
As soon as the staff members had begun to contact the authorities, the man immediately proceeded to leave.
First Time for Everything
“I was totally shocked, it all happened so quickly. I have never had this before” Ms.Ashraf remarked on the matter, adding that the staff had proven to be completely helpful and assisted her throughout the entire conflict.
The staff told Ms.Ashraf that the man had mental issues.
Ms.Ashraf expressed how stunned she was in experiencing such a matter in Hammersmith out of all places, where an extremely diverse background of ethnicities coexist.
Ms.Ashraf then added that since it even occurred in such a culturally mixed area, then no doubt the seriousness to this matter is ever more real, and thus she felt obliged to stand up and expose this incident.

The disheartening case of a New York surgeon who wants the kidney he gave his soon-to-be-ex-wife -- or $1.5 million (US) in compensation -- returned to him has the caught the eye of medical ethicists.
Not the least because his demands seem to put a monetary value on human parts. Dr. Richard Batista says the $1.5 million reflects in part the value of the kidney he donated to Dawnell Batista in 2001, and he should be compensated for it.
"The entire language of organ donation in the United States is very clear. The word donation means strictly a gifting relationship and certainly everyone understands it is irreversible. ... In no way can she purchase it from him or is it direct property of the marriage. We don't share organs to create a business partnership."
Ethicists agree that the question of whether Batista can get his kidney back is a non-starter, and have moved on to the question of whether the case puts a price on something that is illegal to sell in the U.S. -- or Canada, for that matter.
Batista's lawyer Dominic Barbara says the $1.5 million reflects how much money Batista's wife made as a result of being able to continue working and not having to go on dialysis. "A price can't be placed on a human organ but it does have value," Barbara said.
"It's illegal for an organ to be exchanged for anything of value. When you give something, you can't get it back. It's her kidney now and . . . taking the kidney out would mean she would have to go on dialysis or it would kill her."
Writing in Slate.com, national correspondent William Saletan questions whether compensation can't be demanded, at least in this case, without commodifying a vital organ.
"Batista can't take his kidney back, but that's not what he's after. He wants his ex-wife to let him visit their kids, on pain of compensating him for what he gave her. And what he gave her, according to his attorney, wasn't just an organ but a livelihood. According to Newsday, the attorney says the $1.5 million demand 'reflects damages, including how much money she made as a result of being able to continue working and not having to go on dialysis.' So the dollar figure isn't based on the price of an organ (which would be considerably cheaper, based on the going rate of kidneys abroad); it's based on the income one spouse accrued thanks to the other's sacrifice. And sacrifices between spouses are treated differently, under the law, from sacrifices between strangers or friends. There's a tradition and expectation of common benefit. You and your spouse become one flesh—in this case, literally."
Based on how Batista is valuing his kidney, however, could we see a sliding scale for buying kidneys, based on how much the life saved is deemed to be worth?
And who decides?

Researchers looked at second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors at their current prices to test treatment value for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.
Second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), at their current prices, are a poor treatment value as frontline treatment for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) compared with the cost and value of generic imatinib, according to the results of a modeling study.
For patients with CML, the ultimate treatment goal is to be able to discontinue TKI therapy, known as treatment-free remission. Using second-generation TKIs, such as nilotinib, dasatinib, and bosutinib, more patients with CML may be able to achieve deep molecular response more quickly. However, all of these second-generation TKIs are still on patent, with costs estimated to exceed $200,000 per year. In contrast, imatinib is available in generic formulations at a price ranging from $4,400 to $82,000 per year in the United States, with preliminary data showing safety and efficacy similar to the brand name formulation.
“The findings from our study could have a major effect on frontline therapy of chronic myeloid leukemia, on the assessment of the value of treatment-free remission, on governmental and insurance policies and coverage of different tyrosine kinase inhibitors as frontline chronic myeloid leukemia therapies, and could support lowering the cost of second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors,” wrote researcher Ya-Chen Tina Shih, MD, of the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, and colleagues, in Lancet Hematology.
The researchers used a decision analytic model to look at the value of different TKI approaches from the payer perspective. In the model, about 26% of patients taking imatinib and 44% of patients taking second-generation TKIs would achieve sustained deep molecular response at 5 years. The researchers also modeled more favorable scenarios for second-generation TKIs with 66%, 88%, and 99% of patients achieving sustained deep molecular response.
For each scenario modeled, the study considered the combination of health utilities for chronic-phase CML and the annual cost of second-generation TKIs compared with generic imatinib. They considered price scenarios reflective of pricing in the United States, Europe, and developing countries. They also calculated incremental-cost effectiveness ratios (ICERs) and cost effectiveness that considered societal willingness-to-pay thresholds of $50,000 per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) for all markets and $200,000 per QALY in the United States.
In the base case scenario, which priced nilotinib at $152,814 per year, the ICER was more than $22 million. This means that it would cost society more than $22 million to achieve 1 additional QALY from replacing generic imatinib with second-generation TKIs in the frontline. According to the researchers, this meant that “second-generation TKIs as frontline therapy to achieve sustained deep molecular response was not cost-effective under either of the societal willingness-to-pay thresholds.”
Further, none of the scenarios used show a potential treatment value for second-generation TKIs at the current US pricing, or at cheaper international prices of $30,000 to $40,000 per year.
“For example, considering a scenario in the USA using second-generation TKIs vs imatinib (annual price $4,400 per year) with the potential benefit in favor of second-generation TKI (willingness to pay $200,000 per QALY, 66% of patients achieving sustained deep molecular response, and health utility of the chronic phase of 0.1), the cost of second-generation TKIs would need to be less than $25,000 per year to be a cost-effective option,” the researchers explained. “Under the same conditions in developing nations, with a price of generic imatinib of $2,100 per year and a willingness to pay of $50,000 per QALY, the annual price of second-generation TKIs should not exceed $10,000 per year of therapy.”
In an editorial that accompanied the study, Claire N. Andrews and Jeffrey Lipton, PhD, MD, of Princess Margaret Cancer Centre in Toronto, noted that until second-generation TKIs come off patent, cost-effectiveness of these drugs will continue to be an important factor when considering first-line therapy for CML.
In addition, they noted that this study did not consider costs of side-effect management, which can be greater with second-generation TKIs.
“This might mean, for example, patients developing cardiovascular conditions and going on antihypertensives and statins, which add extra costs,” they wrote.
Finally, they noted that the variation in prices of generic imatinib were “sobering.”
“As 80% of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia will never achieve a treatment-free remission, the lifetime cost of drug treatment is substantial to both the individual and society, especially in those with universal healthcare,” they wrote.

Éva Pusztai-Fahidi (22 October 1925 – 11 September 2023) was a Hungarian author and Holocaust survivor. Born into an upper-class Hungarian-Jewish family in Debrecen, she and her family were deported to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in 1944. Her life was a testament to resilience and the power of bearing witness to history.
Éva Fahidi was raised in an affluent Hungarian-Jewish household in Debrecen. Her family converted to Catholicism in 1936. On April 29, 1944, Éva, along with her parents Irma and Dezső Fahidi, and her sister Gilike, were arrested by the Hungarian gendarmerie, in collaboration with the Eichmann commando. They were confined in a newly built prison ghetto along with other Jews from the city.
The Holocaust Experience
On May 14, 1944, they were deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Her mother and sister were selected for the gas chambers by SS doctor Josef Mengele and subsequently died. Her father died due to inhumane prison conditions. After six weeks, Éva was transferred to Münchmühle, a satellite camp of Buchenwald, where she worked 12-hour shifts at the Allendorf and Herrenwald explosives plants. She escaped during a death march at the end of World War II.
After wandering for months, Fahidi returned to Debrecen on November 4, 1945, only to find her parents’ home occupied by others. She joined the Hungarian communists and began working as an industrial employee, eventually becoming an external representative for the Hungarian steel combine. Despite her experiences, she continued to read works by German authors but avoided speaking the German language.
Witness to the Shoah
In 1989, the administration of Stadtallendorf, formerly known as Allendorf, published an advertisement seeking former prisoners of Münchmühle. Fahidi took up the role of a translator and began visiting the site regularly, giving lectures, interviews, and guiding school tours. In 2003, she also visited the memorials at Auschwitz and began speaking openly about her experiences.
Publications and Legal Actions
Her memoir, Anima rerum, was first published in German in 2004 and reprinted in 2011. She testified as a co-plaintiff in criminal trials against former camp guards Hans Lipschis and Johann Breyer in 2011, and against Oskar Gröning in 2015.
In 2015, she also appeared in a dance theatre play titled “Sea Lavender”, which was about her life. In 2019, the German Resistance Memorial Center dedicated an exhibition to her.
Honors and Legacy
Éva Fahidi-Pusztai was made an honorary citizen of the city of Weimar on April 11, 2020. She passed away in Budapest on September 11, 2023, at the age of 97. She left behind a powerful legacy, advocating for the remembrance of the Holocaust through various mediums, ensuring that “It must not and cannot happen again.”

Hundreds of Long Islanders kicked off the Chinese New Year in grand style Saturday in a celebration at Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park in Oyster Bay.
Hosted by the Oyster Bay-based educational nonprofit Planting Fields Foundation, people from around Long Island spent the day having fun with friends and family and learning about Chinese traditions through dancing and martial arts, children’s games, and Chinese arts and crafts booths.
For Lan Hu, 62, of Dix Hills, and her friends Nancy Wu, of Syosset, and Angela Liang, a Dix Hills resident in her 50s, it was the second year for the trio to perform at the festival.
The three friends were taking in the sights of lush plants in a greenhouse on the property in a moment of relaxation before going onstage as part of the Yi Yuan Dance Group to perform a festive Chinese dance.
Hu, who had been practicing the dance three times a week, said the festival connected everyone. Even the dancing, which she said kept her healthy, had a purpose.
“The dancing is not just for fun, it helps to develop culture, and to share culture,” she said.
For Lisa Zhang, 50, of Searingtown, the new year festival marked “a good start, a new chance for happiness and health.”
Liang, who wore a traditional Chinese red and black dress, said the color red has a special meaning. “In Chinese, red means good luck for the start of the new year,” she said.
For Liang, who happily hugged other friends she met at the event, the festival was a way to do a lot of things at once. “You can make a new friend, you can celebrate and have fun, and it’s great for the children because they can learn more about Chinese culture,” she said.
Learning about Chinese culture was one of the things Britt Comess, 45, of Nassau County, and her daughter Stella Comess, 10, were enjoying about the day. The pair were played a game in which adults and children unraveled riddles to win prizes.
“She really loves riddles,” Comess said of her daughter.
“It feels like once you keep going, there’s an answer,” Stella said as she showed a small toy prize she had won.
While the game was her favorite part of the day, Stella said she thought it was fun to learn about Chinese culture, especially since some of her classmates were Chinese.
“Today was awesome,” said Britt Comess. “And it’s important for children to learn about another culture, especially in today’s world.”

A US research ship is the first vessel to encounter the giant new iceberg knocked off the edge of Antarctica.
The RV Nathaniel B Palmer passed within a few kilometres of B49, as it’s been designated – the largest of a group of ice fragments ejected by Pine Island Glacier (PIG) over the weekend.
B49 itself covers just over 100 sq km; the other pieces total about 200 sq km.
Dr Robert Larter took a picture of the big berg from the deck of the Palmer, which he then posted on Twitter.
The British Antarctic Survey scientist is part of a major US-UK expedition that is investigating the nearby Thwaites Glacier.
- World’s biggest iceberg makes a run for it
- Journey to the ‘doomsday glacier’
Both streams – PIG and Thwaites – move enormous amounts of ice off the west of the continent into the Amundsen Sea.
The fronts of these glaciers actually float where they meet the ocean, even though they are hundreds of metres thick. And every so often, the leading edges will calve great chunks of ice.
Researchers have become concerned at the speed with which the PIG and Thwaites are losing ice.
Satellite records show the glaciers have speeded up in recent decades. They’ve also thinned and their fronts have pulled back towards land. Warm ocean water is said to be infiltrating the glaciers’ undersides and melting them.
In addition, the PIG appears to be calving bergs at an accelerating rate.
Dr Larter said B49 and its “PIGlets” represented the seventh large tabular iceberg calving event from Pine Island Glacier this century. A tabular berg is big, wide and flat.
“The interval between them is decreasing,” he wrote on Twitter. “Sequence since November 2001: 71 months, 73 months, 22 months, 25 months, 15 months, 14 months.”
The Palmer ship is trying to learn about the history of Thwaites Glacier on its present cruise.
It’s collecting seafloor sediments, which, when they’re inspected in the lab, should reveal details such as the past position of the front of the glacier and the climate conditions that persisted at the time.
This is work that can help scientists forecast how much the likes of the PIG and Thwaites could contribute to future sea-level rise if they continue to lose their ice.
As massive as B49 seems, it is dwarfed by a 5,000-sq-km colossus known as A68.
This broke away from the continent in 2017 and is now moving alongside the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula. It’s being monitored closely by the Sentinel satellites, which are owned by the EU and operated by the European Space Agency.
All the major tabular bergs have to be tracked because of the risks they could pose to shipping.

San Bernardino, CA
On Monday, San Bernardino County District Attorney Mike Ramos announced a $2.07 million settlement with BP West Coast Products LLC, BP Products North America and Atlantic Richfield Company for violations of environmental law in San Bernardino County.
According to Ramos, the settlement was part of an overall $14 million case for violations statewide and involved a number of other counties including San Diego. A statewide investigation revealed violations of hazardous materials and hazardous waste laws and regulations at gas stations in a total of 36 counties around the state.
The settlement purportedly resolved ongoing civil litigation related to alleged violations of state laws that govern the proper operation and maintenance of underground storage tanks that were used to store fuel at the companies’ gas stations.
The complaint, initiated in 2013, alleged BP had been in violation of environmental laws at its gas stations since 2006. The purported violations included failure to properly maintain leak detection devices; test secondary containment systems; conduct monthly inspections; train employees in proper protocol; and maintain operational alarm systems among other failures.
Lead Deputy District Attorney Douglas Poston reported that BP has sold nearly all of their interests in the underground storage tank sites in California. However, also according to Poston, “The parties have agreed to resolve the matter and anticipate final judicial approval of the settlement.”
In commenting about the settlement, District Attorney Ramos stated, “BP failed to properly maintain and monitor their underground storage tank system so as to prevent leaks of fuel into our groundwater supplies.” He concluded, “This result should send a strong message to would-be environmental violators—If you don’t follow the laws and rules designed to protect our natural resources, you will be prosecuted.”

Cysts are sac-like lumps filled with air, fluid, or other substances. In most cases, cysts are neither harmful nor painful. Cysts range in size from too small to see to the size of an orange. These lumps can appear anywhere on the body, including the vagina. Vaginal cysts may be caused by injury to the vagina through childbirth, by benign tumors in the vagina, or by a buildup of fluid. Vaginal cysts are most likely to occur when a duct or gland becomes clogged, causing liquid and other materials to collect.

A number of properties in and around a market town have been without water early on Easter Sunday due to a burst water main.
Anglican Water said the pipe that burst near the Haven Gate Bridge in Boston was one of their biggest at 21in (53cm).
Engineers have been able to isolate the burst and the water company said the supply should be "coming back on" for those who had "experienced an interruption".
The firm is now planning the repair of the pipe and said that was expected to take a couple of days.
Photos shared on social media showed a lot of water on a number of roads, particularly John Adams Way.
Regan Harris from Anglian Water said: “There was quite a bit of water around and quite a wide area effect.
"Our teams are really agile at being able to move water around when we have burst water mains.
“The good news is our teams have been out on site and we've managed to isolate that burst.
"So anybody that's experienced an interruption to their supply this morning should now be coming back on”.
Anglican Water said readings suggested that everything was getting back to normal.

The movie is Groundhog Day meets 12:01 meets The Hitcher.
I don't want to give any of the plot away as it's best not knowing much about it and just letting it play out.
James Belushi is great in this and Kylie Travis is also very good (she gave up acting in 2001 though) and it's almost like a 2 actor play although there are other actors in it (not many) like Frank Whaley (swimming with Sharks).
The movie is well shot and the fx are good for it's low budget.
Well worth an hour and a half of your time.
What if you could go back in time to save a life? What if you could avert disaster? Karen Warren finds herself in the middle of an emergency, with the power to turn back the clock and rescue a battered woman. Her car breaks down on a hot Texas afternoon, and Frank, a despicable and lecherous man, gives her a ride. On the way, he begins to fight with his wife. The wife is accidentally killed, and Karen runs in terror from the car and into the United States supercollider laboratory looking for help. Instead, she stumbles onto a scientific experiment and is sent back in time.
If you like endless shooting, endless road rage and endless nonsense. Oh, by the way, our psychiatrist lady is a horrible shot. Frank, like some monster, just can't be eliminated.

What if you could go back in time, knowing what would happen, and change it?
That's what happens in this film, but sadly, all the things our heroine tries to change only end up making things worse.
What are the filmmakers trying to tell us here? That, if you try to change the future, you will inevitably make a pig's breakfast of it? Or is it just that this particular character fails to learn the crucial lesson(s) which would enable her to make everything better.
I think it must be the latter. But let's face it, if she made everything better the first time around, it wouldn't be a very interesting movie, would it? Everyone gets off on catastrophe.

Green Bay Packers running back Ryan Grant has shown no signs of physical limitations in his comeback from a severe ankle and leg injury last season.
Come Friday night in Indianapolis, look for Packers head coach Mike McCarthy to give Grant a larger number of carries than the eight he has had in the Green Bay Packers' first two exhibition games.
"Running backs are just like quarterbacks," McCarthy said Friday night after the Packers beat the Arizona Cardinals, 28-20, at Lambeau Field. "Running backs need different looks. He needs reps. He'll be the first to tell you that."
Grant rushed five times for 23 yards. Combined with a 3-for-12 effort in Cleveland, Grant is averaging 4.4 per carry (8-35).
Grant should have a nice comeback from his lost 2010 season, but the presence of James Starks and Green Bay's pass-happy offense caps his ceiling. Right now, he's being overdrafted in a lot of leagues. Don't reach to get Grant if you have a draft on the immediate horizon. Let him come to you.

The group independently produced a slew of music videos and slogged its way across the county with four national tours doing shows in bars and skateparks from Raleigh, North Carolina to San Francisco California. The band’s current line-up of Nashville rock scenesters is no less potent or ambitious as it delivers its second 7″ vinyl release for Fat Elvis Records in 2020. This latest offering entitled Mister Nineteen Eighty More and its accompanying music video is a dark Orwellian send-up of dictators, demagogues, and strongmen. The band’s aggressively creative vision has broadened with its horizons as it grapples with hard political realities shaping our culture, nation, and world.

Fionna discusses her work with Camilla, the Duchess of Rothesay, after the completion of a painting with a difference for the charity The Elephant Family. The charity asked Fionna to paint a sculptured crocodile which was displayed alongside an array of other animal works in Princes Street Gardens,Edinburgh, for Jungle City during the summer of 2011.
The inspiration for Fionna's crocodile came from her birthplace of Caithness and included images of thistles and rugged seascapes. The crocodile took more than three weeks to paint in the Dovecot Studios in Edinburgh. Coincidentally, Fionna discovered that there is a stuffed crocodile on show in Wick Library, a fact which amused Camilla.

THEY say artists must be prepared to suffer for their work, and Fionna Carlisle walked through fire and crashed into the North Sea to prepare herself for a commission.
The artist had to endure the rigours of an oil industry survival course before starting a series of portraits on various people who have played leading roles in the history of North Sea exploration.

The 80th birthday on 22nd April, 2009, of Sir Michael Atiyah was celebrated with the Atiyah80: Geometry and Physics conference organised by ICMS at the Informatics Forum of the University of Edinburgh and the Royal Society of Edinburgh, April 20–22, and a sequence of events Science, Politics and Drama at the Royal Society of Edinburgh and the Royal Lyceum Theatre, April 23–24 2009.
Fionna created a set of drawings at the Atiyah80 conference, you can see the full set at the Atiyah80 website.
These sketches led to commission of Sir Michael Atiyah and Professor Friedrich Hirzebruch, two double portraits one is in University of Edinburgh and other Max Planck Institute of Mathematics Bonn. Drawn in Bonn and Edinburgh, 2011

A portrait of the late Rt. Hon. Robin Cook was unveiled yesterday by the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Michael J. Martin MP. The reception was attended by Mrs Gaynor Cook, Mr Christopher Cook and Mr Peter Cook.
The portrait is an important new acquisition for the House of Commons Collection. Painted by Fionna Carlisle during the months before Robin Cook's death in August 2005, it depicts the Parliamentarian informally, with his two dogs "Tammy" and "Tasker", named after the Scottish whiskies Tamdhu and Talisker. He chose to wear his racing clothes and asked the artist to include in the background two prominent Edinburgh references, Musselburgh Racecourse and the Firth of Forth. By his hand is a copy of Hansard, dated 17 March 2003, the day he resigned from the Cabinet over the decision to go to war with Iraq.
Hugo Swire MP, Chairman of the Speaker's Advisory Committee on Works of Art, said
"We are delighted to have obtained this important picture for the Collection. Robin Cook was a Parliamentarian whose reputation grew over the years and it is quite proper that we should have an image of him. I am certain that this iconographic portrait will become one of our most popular images with the public"
Fionna Carlisle said
"He was a joy to paint – a challenging and rewarding sitter, who was very generous with his time. I found him witty and easy company and he took a keen interest as the painting progressed. He wanted his smile in the portrait to show a happy and contented man, which is how he felt"

July 5, 2023 –A suspect has been charged with five counts of murder after a mass shooting in Philadelphia on Monday, according to the local district attorney.
Kimbrady Carriker, 40, was also charged with attempted murder and carrying a firearm without a licence.
Five people – including a 15-year-old boy – were killed and two were wounded in south-western Philadelphia.
The suspect, who was not required to enter a plea during Wednesday’s court appearance, is being held without bail.
“Public safety is clearly an issue. There are no set conditions to ensure the safety of the community,” Judge Naomi Williams said during the hearing.
Wearing a bullet-proof vest and carrying an AR-15-style rifle, a handgun, a police scanner and ammunition, the suspect appeared to fire randomly along several blocks of Philadelphia’s Kingsessing neighbourhood on Monday night.
Officers ultimately arrested Mr Carriker after chasing him on foot, and found an additional handgun in his possession.
The suspect has no known connection to those killed. Authorities have identified the victims as Daujan Brown, 15; Lashyd Merritt, 20; Ralph Moralis, 59; Dymir Stanton, 29; and Joseph Wamah Jr, 31.
At a press conference, Wamah’s twin sister Josephine described him as “a kind soul” and passionate artist who “was like a second father to me”.
“It’s hard to wake up from this,” she said. “I don’t understand how someone could do that to my brother.”
Two children, including a two-year-old, were also shot in Monday night’s attack.
Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner told reporters Mr Carriker had a prior gun-related misdemeanour charge but was in legal possession of his firearm. The unfired handgun he owned, however, was of the untraceable ‘ghost gun’ variety, Mr Krasner said.
He told CNN the shooting was a “random, premeditated deliberate killing carried out with an assault rifle. This was someone who set out to kill strangers, which of course has become way too common in the United States.”
Investigators from Mr Krasner’s office said the suspect was “exhibiting abnormal behaviour” observed by those living with him, including wearing a bullet-proof vest at home.
“They thought he was getting more and more agitated as the days were passing, and their way of dealing with it was just to avoid and not interfere with him, even though they all live in the same house,” said Assistant District Attorney Joanne Pescatore. But she was not assigning blame to them, she added.

- He counts shootings. He no longer remembers names
- How gun violence is reshaping American lives
In sum, Mr Carriker is facing five counts of murder, five counts of attempted murder, 10 counts of assault, 10 counts of recklessly endangering another person and four counts of weapons charges, according to the District Attorney’s office.
Mr Carriker’s next court date is scheduled for 24 July.
Philadelphia’s mass shooting came just a day after two people died and 28 were injured – about half of them children – in a shooting in Baltimore, Maryland. Police there are still searching for multiple suspects who opened fire during an annual community gathering.
And late on Monday, a shooting in Fort Worth, Texas, after a local 4 July festival left at least three people dead and eight others wounded.

Taiwan Sees ‘political Warfare’ In Dispute With China Over Vaccines
If your pet will be transported as cargo, check in early so it could possibly go to the quiet and dimly lit maintain of the aircraft.

Does My Rabbit Want Vaccinations?
DO name your native trash or public well being division to search out out about sharps disposal packages in your area. One person drove from California to Colorado to return their canine because the owner found the canine uncontrollable, she said. Your family doctor can provide reliable information about the COVID-19 vaccine and other beneficial immunizations. As far as being pregnant goes, in accordance with our consultants, hundreds of pregnant ladies have already been immunized and their circumstances are being studied by researchers. But thus far there isn’t any link between the vaccine and issues with pregnancies. “The vaccine may be very particular and one of the ways they work is by inflicting the body to make antibodies specifically in opposition to certain proteins and people are proteins which might be concerned within the infection,” Dr. Scialli mentioned.
Protection from maternal antibodies usually fades somewhere between the ages of eight and 18 weeks. If South Africa’s elderly inhabitants had been given the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine, as much as lives may have been saved, in accordance with Professor Shabir Madhi. Africa faces a 470 million shortfall in Covid-19 vaccine doses this year after the Covax alliance reduce its projected shipments, the WHO has mentioned. The two-sentence announcement warned shareholders to take care when coping with their shares, until more details are supplied. A lady who cared for three South African kids who had been discovered dead of their new New Zealand residence has described the family as “always happy”. Mandy Sibanyoni labored for the Dickason family for years earlier than they moved abroad. She said the information of the ladies’ death left her devastated.
When kittens are born, their immune methods usually are not totally developed and they are unable to battle disease on their very own. Fortunately, they are able to get some safety from their moms. Nursing mothers present antibody-wealthy milk known as colostrum. These maternal antibodies provide kittens with short-term immunity against illness.
Disposal Of Sharps By Health Care Facilities
“You cannot think about the homeless as totally different from you and me. I’ve met these folks. They are the same as us except one paycheck, one sickness, one mental illness, one substance abuse problem that didn’t get caught early away from this,” Dally said. “This rocks. We can actually assist individuals,” said Dally, who volunteers with the unhoused group in addition to working as a veterinarian with Aloha Pet and Bird Hospital in Indian Harbour Beach. Alicia Moore, spokesperson with the Brevard Health Alliance, mentioned the occasion was about offering look after the lives at “each ends of the leash.” At the primary vaccine visit, your veterinarian will do an examination earlier than vaccinating your kitten. Vaccines should never be given to a kitten with a fever or illness because the vaccine will not be efficient. Giving a vaccine to a sick kitten can actually make her really feel worse. Your kitten might feel a little pinch or sting, but many do not react in any respect.

The recycling process for production and end-of-life fiber reinforced thermoset plastic waste is usually a two-step process: the reclamation of the fibers from the matrix through its degradation and their recovery and remanufacture into new feedstock material or product. The chapter will be opened by an outlook of the current sources of waste in the composite industry. This will comprise a review of the principal fiber reclamation technologies, categorizing them based on the degradation mechanism (pyrolysis or solvolysis), and an overview of the obtainable properties will be provided. The chapter will then focus on the description of the available remanufacturing technologies for reclaimed carbon fibers, into new recycled composite materials. The chapter will also provide an overview of the current industrial landscape.

Ghana rejects Myanmar rice
Yangon - Ghana's rejection last month of 15 000 bags of "unwholesome" rice from Myanmar has sparked calls for improved quality controls for the commodity, one of the country's key export items, media reports said on Sunday.
Ghana's Food and Drugs Board last month rejected a shipment of Myanmar rice "for being unwholesome for human consumption", as it was infested with weevils and gave off an offensive smell, the Myanmar Times reported.
Myo Aung Kyaw, a central executive committee member of the Myanmar Rice Industry Association and secretary of the Myanmar Rice Traders Association, said the rejection was a wake-up call for the local industry.
"Africa is a key export market for Myanmar rice, and quality control is a priority, from seeds to finished products," he said.
"If this happens again, Myanmar rice could disappear from the international market. Our rice exporters and traders have to meet international standards," Aung Kyaw told the Myanmar Times.
He said the country needs to ensure that exported rice contains no more than 14% moisture.
"If moisture levels in the rice aren't properly checked, you can get foul odour, caking and discolouration," he said.
As of October 1 2009 halfway through the country's fiscal year which ends on March 31, Myanmar had exported 558 900 tons of rice.

Author(s): Mike McCormack
McCormack's ambitious and other-worldly novel is both simple and devilishly complex. Once a year, on All Souls' Day, it is said in Ireland that the dead may return. Solar Bones is the story of one such visit home.
Written in one long sentence (in which line breaks perform as a higher order of comma), McCormack’s remarkable and enjoyable book succeeds at both stretching the formal possibilities of the novel (for which it was awarded the 2016 Goldsmiths Prize) and in being a gentle, unassuming and thoughtful portrait of a very ordinary life in a small and unremarkable Irish town. The flow of McCormack’s prose sensitively maps the flow of thought, drawing feeling and meaning from the patterning of quotidian detail as the narrator dissolves himself in the memories of which he is comprised. This wash of memory suggests that the narrator may in fact be dead, the narrative being the residue (or cumulation) of his life, the enduring body of attachments, thoughts and feelings that comprise the person. Few novels capture so well the texture of a person’s life, and this has been achieved through a rigorous experiment in form.
Wimmer of the Goldsmiths Prize 2016.

With the recent treatment dished out to Willie Collum still fresh in the memory, referees have been going the extra mile to stamp their own interpretation on incidents at Ibrox.
Over the last week Livingston, Aberdeen and Ayr United have all been denied justice as John Beaton, Don Robertson and Collum ensure that they keep their lucrative place on the refereeing circuit.
David Martindale, Neil Warnock and Scott Brown have all prepared their sides then lost out to some baffling decisions, with Connor Goldson at the heart of most of the ‘baffling decisions’.
?? Goldson with the Eric Cantona in the build up https://t.co/vmzS3OWse4
— Mark ? (@minimark3324) February 5, 2024
Five minutes before half-time against Livingston and with the match goal-less Goldson charges in Kung-fu style to a Livi defender, the ball breaks to Fabio Silva who scores with Beaton bottling out of applying the Laws of the Game which would have resulted in at least a booking for the former Shrewsbury ace.
??”They’re fortunate, Rangers.”
??”Talk about clutching at straws.”
— Sky Sports Scotland (@ScotlandSky) February 6, 2024
With Aberdeen pushing for a late equaliser at Ibrox Goldson fell to pieces, handling the ball twice in one incident in full view of Robertson who decided to look the other way to deny the Dons, just as he had in the final of the League Cup when Jack Butland wiped out Duk.
??’It’s pretty reckless. I think the reaction from the Ayr United player influences Willie Collum’s decision’
— BBC Sport Scotland (@BBCSportScot) February 11, 2024
Showing his versatility against Ayr United, Goldson knocked the ball too far in front then made up for his mistake with a dangerous lunge at his opponent. After the lack of backing from the SFA following the three statements following the Glasgow Derby it will be a long long time before Collum sends off anyone from Charles Green’s 2012 Tribute Act.
Alan Muir will take on the baton for Wednesday’s match at home to Ross County, his second appointment of 2024 involving Philippe Clement’s side.
The former Monaco boss has promised to resign if any match official isn’t neutral.
