There’s rhythm in routine when it comes to date-night beauty makeup, whether it’s a few extra swipes of a trusted mascara or a never-fail red lip. Confidence, after all, is key—something that comes with a look you’ve got down to a science. But a visual punctuation mark isn’t the only way to dial up the drama. Consider a stealthier, multipronged approach that fine-tunes features and somehow replicates the glow of candlelight even before you’ve slid into the restaurant booth.
First things first, shake off signs of a long week with a swipe of Givenchy’s Hydra Sparkling Illuminating Eye Stick. The sheer formula offers an instant cooling effect and minimizes puffiness and dark circles. Next comes that sleight-of-hand luminosity, courtesy of Make Up For Ever’s Star Lit Liquid. Applied to the bridge of your nose, onto the tops of cheekbones, and above the cupid’s bow, the buildable highlighter can go from subtle radiance to full-swoon glow.
A sugar lip-scrub-and-balm duo from Dior preps the canvas for an understated lipstick that stays put through dinner; Tom Ford’s Soleil Blanc Dry Oil Spray is another night-out multitasker, lending a hydrated sheen to legs and collarbones along with a low-key scent that lingers on skin. Before heading out the door, don’t forget Clarins’s 4-Colour All-in-One Pen, sized to slip into the slimmest of clutches. Equipped with three eyeliner colors (brown, black, and blue) along with a nude lip liner, it’s a win for mid-date touchups. Here, nine products to try in the weekend ahead.


'Giving Tuesday' encourages spending, donating for less fortunate
Cincinnati got into the giving spirit on "Giving Tuesday."
The social media phenomenon encourages people from across the country to take a break from consumer spending to give to others in need.
On Fountain Square, players from the Cincinnati Bengals teamed up with Lighthouse Youth Services for their Share on the Square event.
They accepted gifts, gift cards, and cash donations to make sure the more than 5,000 people they serve have a Merry Christmas.
“I remember when I was a kid and how it felt, because I didn't really have much growing up, so I know the kind of impact this can make,” said Bengals fullback Chris Pressley.
Lighthouse will continue accepting donations at their administrative location on 401 East McMillan Street. Their big Gift Delivery will be Dec. 14 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Dress for Cincinnati put their own spin on Giving Tuesday with Giving “Shoes” Day, asking for professional shoes to finish off interview attire.
“Really, having the clothing is something that many women lack. When you've been out of work for a long time, you really need to be able to finish of the entire package for an interview,” Courtney Barlow said.
For folks who couldn’t make it out to donate, Dress for Success also accepts donations at 208 McFarland Street from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. every Thursday, and the first Saturday of the month from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m
People intending to donate online to any charity are encouraged to check them out on one or more of these websites:

Oh ya, I finally purchased this!

In the end, I had less than 1 yard of the yarn left over—this included the tails from the cast on, the tails from the bind off, and the tails from change of skeins.
After weaving in (actually what I did was some duplicated stitches, and then pulled the tail between the 2 layers of knitting) the total was about 12 inches of waste.
And the finished length? 75 inches! All I wanted (72 inches!) plus 3 more!
As I have mentioned, I don’t much like scarves snug around my neck—and the thought was, this narrow(ish) scarf could be worn folded and the ends tucked into the fold. To be long enough to do this, (and still not be ‘close’ (because close is too close, and close is way looser than tight!)) I needed at least 36 inches when the scarf was folded.
The extra inches make it all the nicer.
Yesterday Virginia commented that she thought the scarf must be boring to knit—
(Every row the same, row after row) but actually this has been one the least boring scarves I have ever knit!
I started with an Italian (tubular) cast on, and finished with a grafted bind off (see details to left) and worked in simple double knitting (K1, Slip 1) the way it worked was:
Change colors before my eyes
Yes, Blue violet and violet blue are different colors.
Oh look Red—wait no its not, its red violet.
(Other such sentiments!)
R1 was alternating colors, R2 filled in with the new color. Interesting!
R3 and 4—Ok—(not yet boring) and then
R1 and R2 –Interesting again!
While the stitch pattern was boring (and there are one or two errors and the scarf is not a perfect tube!), the color way’s keep the whole thing interesting beyond belief. I could see myself knitting another scarf like this!
The socks are moving along, too, I started the heel flaps yesterday, (and just got a few rows done—half the time was taken up finding the ends and neatening up the balls (not balls, but collapsed skeins) of the solid black yarn. I'll take a photo when there is something interesting to see—Like a finished heel—or at least a finished heel flap and turning, and gusset stitches picked up!

The use of medical marijuana is rapidly growing. We've heard of children who've received medical cannabis to treat various ailments, such as pain and inflammation, irritability, anxiety, etc. For many of us, pets are our children. We love and cherish them and would do anything to restore their joy when they feel troubled or ill. As cannabis' medicinal significance becomes extensively accepted, some pet owners and veterinarians have turned to it as a potential medicine for pets.
What Ailments Does Cannabis Treat?
The primary reason cannabis is used to treat the same medical issues is that we (humans and animals) have endocannabinoid systems.
This is a complex system in our bodies with cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2), whose balance creates harmony in our internal processes – the body operates smoothly and efficiently. On the other hand, an imbalanced endocannabinoid system leaves the body compromised. By binding with cannabinoid receptors, cannabinoids enhance the endocannabinoid system's ability to maintain balance, thus bringing equilibrium to various body processes, including mood, appetite, motor function, etc.
From the above information, it's logical to say that cannabis treats similar maladies in humans and animals. In pets, cannabis is explored to treat a range of health issues, including:
- Cancer pain
- Allergic reactions
- Appetite loss
Cannabis is also believed to enhance the quality of life of animals with terminal illnesses
Cannabis' Safety and Efficacy in Pets
The FDA is the federal agency that approves any form of medical, pharmaceutical, or cosmetic products for which therapeutic claims are made. The FDA approval process demonstrates the efficacy and safety of legally manufactured and marketed products. The guarantee of a product's safety is critical to animal lovers who want to use cannabis to treat their pets.
Until now, no cannabis-based product suggested to have therapeutic benefits to animals has undergone the traditional FDA approval process. While robust evidence shows that some cannabinoids, like CBD, have the therapeutic potential to treat conditions, there's still little research on their administration in animals. Much of what we know is still anecdotal or deduced from human and animal studies.
The Best Weed Strains for Pets
As you might have noted, pet-friendly weed strains are the ones with a higher concentration of CBD than THC. Your dog doesn't need a high-potency weed strain like Laughing Buddha or Silver Haze. Some dispensaries and manufacturers make animal-friendly products. But if you want to make CBD-rich cannabis edibles on your own, here are the best strains for pets:
For many people, the idea of a weed strain with a 1:1 ratio of CBD to THC might sound hilarious, but this pooch-friendly Cannatonic strain does. Created by Resin Seeds, Cannatonic boasts a 50/50 hybrid strain with THC levels below 6% and CBD content of 6%-17%. A powerful relaxing stain, the Cannatonic produces an uplifting effect that focuses on the mind.
It's great for your furry friend who needs pain relief in the morning or afternoon. Cannatonic is also believed to have therapeutic properties designed to alleviate anxiety, stress, nausea, and moodiness (so it's also perfect for your feline).
Another pet-friendly cannabis strain is ACDC, thanks to its extremely low THC level and incredible CBD content. It contains only 1%-6% THC, so you can't expect your Fido to shake all night long. On the other hand, CBD levels fall around 20%, which is a surprisingly higher level than the average 0.05%.
ACDC is a cross between Cannatonic and Ruderalis, a 50/50 sativa/indica hybrid. Perked with terpenes, this weed strain exudes a sweet, earthy, and skunky flavor. In pets, ACDC may treat various medical problems, including pain and discomfort. And because of its balanced indica-sativa content, this strain may produce an uplifting effect combined with peace and happiness.
Sour Tsunami is another well-balanced pet-friendly strain comprising 60% sativa and 40% indica, although it's more sativa-leaning. A crossbreed between Sour Diesel, NYC Diesel, and California's Ferrari strain, Sour Tsunami boasts THC levels of up to 10% and CBD levels as high as 11-13%. In fact, some Tsunami concentrates are known to contain as high as 30% CBD.
First, you must gauge your dog's tolerance to Sour Tsunami using minor doses due to the extremely high CBD content. However, if well administered, this weed strain may alleviate pain without making your pooch high and incapacitated on the couch. Furthermore, it may treat several medical conditions, such as stress, cancer, and insomnia.
Harlequin is a sativa-dominant, CBD-rich strain that has grown in demand as a non-psychoactive medical strain. It combines various strains, such as Colombian Gold, Swiss Sativa, Thai, and a Nepali indica. Created by Mr. Green of the House of David Collective, Harlequin has a 5:2 CBD to THC ratio, although lab analytics show that its THC level ranges from 4-10% while the CBD content varies from 6-15%.
It's the perfect strain for a sweet-toothed pooch as its high terpene profile gives it a woody, earthy scent with a tinge of mango flavor. This strain has the potential to uplift the mood, alleviate stress, deliver an anti-inflammatory effect, and relieve pain.
How Much Cannabis to Give Your Pet
A 2018 study on dogs with osteoarthritis showed that the most effective dose for enhancing your pet's comfort and activity levels is 2 mg/kg of weight. However, that shouldn't be a rule of thumb because the study might have been biased, and also other data on CBD dosage is quite limited.
Every dog has a different need, and they'll respond differently to cannabis. That's why it's crucial to start with low doses. Monitor how your furry friend responds to the dose and adjust it accordingly. Most CBD products may come with dosing suggestions but bear in mind that these are based on the manufacturers' recommendations. It's challenging to tell how much is safe and effective because CBD isn't regulated.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are the commonly reported symptoms in pets after CBD ingestion?
After ingesting CBD, your dog may experience the following symptoms: vomiting, inappetence, lethargy, and diarrhea. S/he may also suffer from Ataxia with large ingestions.
Do vets recommend CBD for dogs?
If your pet is under any medication, talk to your vet before using CBD to be safe. Most holistic and integrative vets are familiar with the interactions between other drugs and CBD, as well as the benefits of the latter. However, remember that your vet can talk to you about CBD, but they can't initiate a conversation about CBD (except in California).
Does CBD make dogs high?
The hemp plant from which pet CBD is derived contains high CBD levels and almost no THC, thus doesn't cause psychoactive effects. THC can be toxic to animals, but CBD is safe. Besides, hemp-derived CBD is legal in the US.

The reign of Charles I saw only a few tracts of woodland in England that still covered more than twenty square miles. Those Who Worked: An Anthology of Medieval Sources, Italica Press: New York, 1997. Basically, smelting is the process of melting down ore in order to separate its metallic components from impurities. The Mennonites left Germany because they were persecuted for refusing to perform military service on the basis of religious objections. Colonial families were large, and these small dwellings had much activity and there was little privacy. In New York's fertile Hudson River Valey, soil and climate favored diversified agriculture. The oldest university in the South, , was founded in 1693 in Virginia; it pioneered in the teaching of and educated future U.
Unlike English colonial wives, German and Dutch wives owned their own clothes and other items and were also given the ability to write wills disposing of the property brought into the marriage. At the beginning of the 16th century, the political power of the kings was increasing in most Western European nations. Quaker William Penn In order to avoid the kinds of problems that plagued the old cities of Europe, Philadelphia was carefully surveyed and mapped out ahead of time, ensuring that the streets were wide, the docks were well-situated and homes, business and government buildings were spread apart. Existing conditions of natural resources greatly affected the development of technical innovation in the field of iron manufacture. The main commercial center of Philadelphia was run mostly by prosperous Quakers, supplemented by many small farming and trading communities with strong German contingents located in the Delaware River Valley.
The Colonial Population The population of the American colonies through the 18th century was primarily a mixture of immigrants from different countries in Europe and slaves from Africa. Europeans were intolerant of non-Catholic religions, of people who were different, and of the poor. Eventually, it was a dispute over the meaning of some of these political ideals especially and that led to the. When Penn's father died, William suggested that the king could give him land in America as repayment of the debt. At town meetings, however, there was opportunity for discussion of public problems, and settlers thereby received a certain amount of experience in selfgovernment. After more than eight months in prison, Zenger was defended in court by Philadelphia lawyer, Andrew Hamilton.
In the fall of 1999, he testified before a congressional committee to disabuse members of Congress of their optimism and to warn them of what was to come. Though the Quakers dominated in Philadelphia, elsewhere in Pennsylvania other strains were well represented, The Germans came from a war-ravaged land in large numbers, asking for the chance to earn their bread. Southern Colonies The Southern Colonies were economically dominated by the wealthy planters in Maryland, Virginia, and South Carolina even though much of the population of the south consisted of enslaved Africans. To that end, and to avoid trouble with the British government, they encouraged Protestants as well as Catholics to settle. Even while Plymouth struggled for existence, other settlements were planted nearby.
And many Dutch customs -like the habit of calling on one's neighbors and sharing a drink with them on New Year's Day and the visit of jovial Saint Nicholas at Christmas time - became countrywide customs which have survived to the present day. On July 2, 1776, New Jersey enacted the , soon after having empowered delegates to the Continental Congress, on June 21, to join in a declaration of independence. Common Sense called for independence and challenged the largely accepted notion that a good government employed a balance of monarchy, aristocracy, and democracy.

Having received heavy criticism from different quarters of the society, including Information Technology experts and the general public, on the proposed Prevention of Electronic Crimes Bill 2015, the National Assembly’s Standing Committee on Information Technology and Telecommunication has decided to hold a public hearing on it in Islamabad next week.
Muttahida Qaumi Movement MNA and member of the committee Syed Ali Raza Abidid tweeted on Thursday that the committee's chairman Captain (retd) Muhammad Safdar had agreed to hold a public hearing on the proposed Cyber Crime Bill on Tuesday.
Good news, the Chairman Standing Committee Capt. Safder has agreed to hold a public hearing on the Cyber Crime Bill on Tuesday at the NA.— Syed Ali Raza Abidi (@abidifactor) May 7, 2015
Abidi told The Express Tribune that he had invited the committee and its chairman to hold the public hearing in Karachi, since many people affiliated with the IT industry are work there. However, Capt Safdar excused due to some personal reasons, and the hearing will now be held in Islamabad.
"I will be flying to Islamabad to attend the meeting."
Meanwhile, Capt Safdar's office confirmed that the hearing has been scheduled for Tuesday.
Earlier on April 30, the committee had asked the general public and other stakeholders to relay their feedback, including objections and suggestions, on the bill within seven days.

On April 16, the standing committee had approved a ‘controversial legislation’ on cyber terrorism and had referred it to Parliament for final approval.
The parliamentary panel was criticised for adopting the Cyber Crimes Bill 2015 without considering objections as serious or merited.

A majority of members failed to turn up at the meeting when it approved the bill, paving the way for Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) legislators to surpass those critical of the legislation, including the media, internet service providers, NGOs and members of civil society.
State Minister for Information Technology Anusha Rehman told The Express Tribune it was incorrect to say that the legislation is non-transparent and non-consultative.

The storm system forming in the southeastern Gulf of Mexico may be nothing, forecasters say. But it may be something.
Forecasters at the National Weather Service's National Hurricane Center are monitoring the system, which is currently centered just north of the Honduran Bay Islands, according to a Saturday release. There's an 80 percent chance the system will form into a tropical depression or tropical storm in the next 48 hours, the weather service said. In five days, those chances go up to 90 percent.
Cuba has issued a tropical storm warning for the provinces of Pinar del Rio and Isle of Youth. Mexico has also issued a tropical storm watch for the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula from Tulum to Cabo Catoche.
Florida isn't included in any alerts. But the weather service cautions that even if the system doesn't turn into a major storm, it could still bring "torrential" rain to nearby coastal areas.
Gov. Rick Scott took to Twitter to warn Florida residents about the system Saturday.
A bit of good news out of all of this? If the storm system does take a turn north into the central Gulf of Mexico, it may help break up the red tide algae bloom that's ravaged Florida's coasts in recent months.

We may be just decades away from devising a cure for all types of cancer, but, at the moment, scientists are struggling to find out a way to prolong the patient’s life. And it would seem that a team from Mary Crowley Cancer Center is on the verge of a major breakthrough. The doctors can keep cancer in check with a new vaccine that uses a patient’s tumor cells.
But before heading on over to the treatment itself, let’s talk a while about the patients who were chosen to participate in this novel clinical trial.
Carly Rutledge is a 15-year old college student. A while ago, Carly’s doctors broke the news to her and her family. The 15-years old was diagnosed with Ewings Sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer. According to her physicians, this type of cancer is, in most cases, highly deadly and it can spread quite rapidly.
In Carly’s case, traditional courses of treatment such as chemotherapy or immunotherapy would have had no results. In fact, according to Carly’s own testimony, immunotherapy had the opposite effect.
Before being enlisted in this new clinical trial, Carly underwent chemo on a regular basis, some of the treatments lasting for 5 days. After enduring the debilitating effects of chemotherapy, Carly was asked to participate in a new clinical trial with involved a new type of cancer management drug.
A few years after starting the treatment, Carly returned to school, after her doctors acknowledge that her cancer was in remission.
Doctor Neumunaitis, another medical scientist, working with Baylor Hospital, the center where the trial took place, remember another case involving this novel cure.
A proud father received the news that his daughter is getting married. It was a time of joy and anticipation for the father until the doctors diagnosed him with an aggressive form of cancer. According to his doctors, the father had only a few months to live.
After undergoing the trial, the patient is now cancer-free and is doing a great job caring for his grandnephew.
Doctors can keep cancer in check with a new vaccine that employs a patient’s own cancerous cell. According to doctor Maurizio Ghisoli, one of the scientists involved in the project, this is how the new treatment works. After diagnosing a patient, the doctors harvest a fresh batch of his cancer cells.
The patient’s cancer cells undergo several treatments in the lab, before being injected back in the patient’s blood stream. After the process is complete, the body recognizes the destructive potential of the back-engineered cell and devises powerful antibodies in order to take them down. The body can use the information from these back-engineered cells in order to keep cancer in check.
If the treatment is approved by the FDA, patients will require injections once a month.

When Old School was released in 2003, the film was a total sensation, sparking Will Ferrell's film career, re-inventing Vince Vaughn's onscreen persona, and ... well, Luke Wilson's on Enlightened now, so it all worked out. More than anything, it kicked off ten years of comedies about Manchildren. Guys who didn't want to grow up, who dedicated themselves to behaving badly, who celebrated immaturity.
Immature comedies were hardly a new thing, of course. I don't want the cast of Police Academy to start rolling in their graves or anything. But the specific post-Old School era of comedies have been a pretty cohesive lot, with Ferrell, Vaughn, Ben Stiller, Judd Apatow, the Wilson brothers, Kevin James and others forming a veritable cottage industry of one type of comedy. That's the legacy of Old School. Here's a look at ten years of its legacy.
The movies were still figuring out how to respond to our new Manchild ideal in 2004. Ben Stiller was still playing out the Meet the Parents string, which featured awkward comedy but was actually about growing UP (getting engaged, having babies) than regressing. Meanwhile, Adam Sandler was busy revisiting his rare "being sweet with Drew Barrymore" side with 50 First Dates. But Manchildren would have their day, as Dodgeball, Starsky and Hutch, and especially Anchorman set new standards for how men in comedies would behave. With the latter two movies, both set in the 1970s, the Manchild was even given a historical context. The Manchild was ever thus, his collars just used to be wider, that's all.
[A note on inclusiveness: It's telling that 13 Going on 30, a film explicitly about an adult acting like a child because she really is a child, brought in less money that all the movies listed above. The journey of the Womanchild would be an arduous one.]
Wedding Crashers brought Vince Vaughn together with a different Wilson brother this time, but the results were the same: men acting like boys to get chicks. Will Ferrell made a cameo, and he also starred in Kicking and Screaming, the movie that proves that a Manchild can inspire actual children (also the movie that will show up on your cable grid and make you think it's the Noah Baumbach one EVERY TIME). The next evolution of the Manchild game would occur when The 40-Year-Old Virgin came along. The Apatovian style had a name now and was more explicit than ever about being unable to deal with adult relationships without 150 minutes worth of difficulty.
With Adam Sandler being a family man and learning lessons and growing old in Click, Vince Vaughn delivering as close to an adult relationship as he was capable of in The Break-Up, and Ben Stiller making actual children's entertainment, the Manchild slack had to be picked up by some new faces. Enter Matthew McConaughey, whose Failure to Launch kicked off a mini-genre of Manchild rom-coms (the concept of the Manchild has always been a fixture in rom-coms, but the McConaughey films really laser-focused on it); and Matt Dillon, Manchild emeritus from at least There's Something About Mary, if not before, played the straight guy to Owen Wilson's Manchild in You, Me, and Dupree.
Still, the Manchild standard for 2005 was set by one of the originals: Will Ferrell in Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. The logline of which could very well have been "Manchild drives a car." Ferrell also brought along Euro Manchild Sacha Baron Cohen, helping to expand the Manchild Universe to new voices.
[A note on inclusiveness: It didn't make much of a splash, but Dodgeball alum Justin Long went and made Accepted, which was basically Young School, i.e. Old School for actual college-aged people. America wasn't ready to have their minds expanded quite that far.]
Judd Apatow returned with another movie about guys who refuse the call to maturity. The specific Manchild aspect of Seth Rogen and pals in Knocked Up was more central to the plot than in his previous film, and while in the end, Rogen put down the bong, Katherine Heigl's character was still clearly painted as the bitch in that scenario. Sandler and Ferrell did their part for the genre this year, with I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry and Blades of Glory, respectively.
But the demographic of the Manchild really expanded in 2007: Wild Hogs pushed well past the "mid" in mid-life crisis, while the hugely successful Superbad introduced Jonah Hill and Michael Cera as stars who would end up taking Manchild-style comedy into the realm of actual youth. Less successful? Dane Cook, who seemed perfectly poised to further the cause of cinematic Manchildren, but Good Luck Chuck bombed.
Manchildren suffered their harshest betrayal yet in 2008, as Owen Wilson abandoned ship and made Marley and Me, a movie about a responsible adult relationship and the unconditional love of a family pet. Vince Vaughn at least had the decency to act annoyed while being dragged to the in-laws' houses in Four Christmases.
Ben Stiller picked up the torch for Manchildren with the super-successful Tropic Thunder, bringing Robert Downey Jr. into the fold and, via Downey, earning the very first Oscar nomination of the Manchild era. (Speaking of which, can we say that the Manchild movement of the 2000s helped to inspire the Best Picture-nominated reverse-aging drama The Curious Case of Benjamin Button? I SAY WE CAN!)
More classic Manchild movies like Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly's Step Brothers and Adam Sandler's You Don't Mess with the Zohan didn't perform as well (though not as poorly as Ferrell and Owen Wilson's respective bombs, Semi-Pro and Drillbit Taylor) and seemed a lot older and mustier than comparatively more spry movies from the Paul Rudds, Seth Rogens, and Jason Segels of the world with movies like Pineapple Express (Manchild stoners), Role Models (Manchild mentors), and Forgetting Sarah Marshall (Manchild gets dumped).
[A note on inclusiveness: Still working on that mythical Womanchild. Anna Faris gave it her best shot with the indie Smiley Face (Womanchild stoner) and the more mainstream The House Bunny (Womanchild Playmate), but America didn't wholly respond.]
Just when it seemed like the Manchildren could barely make an effort, when limp movies like Couples Retreat and Old Dogs were just going through the Manchild motions, when the best movie about a man trying to recapture his lost youth was 17 Again with ZAC EFRON, of all people*, when Judd Apatow and Adam Sandler gave up all pretentions of comedy and just focused on the desperate misery of the Manchild in Funny People ... when all seemed lost, it came.
It came from Vegas. It came with Ken Jeong locked in its trunk, naked. The Hangover came and told Manchildren everywhere that they didn't have to despair. They didn't have to get old and sad and contemplate their mortality. They could look like Bradley Cooper, man! They could do GHB and fuck tigers and get married to Mike Tyson (that's what the movie's about, right?) and be friends forever in the City of Sin! They could also make $277 million and send the movie industry into a copycat frenzy.
* On the real, though, the best Manchild movie of 2009 was obviously I Love You, Man.
The Hangover effect would be seen in debauched movies like Get Him to the Greek and Hot Tub Time Machine, as well as the increased presence of New Manchild Ideal Zach Galifanakis, who teamed up with Robert Downey Jr. for Due Date. Adam Sandler went the more classic route with Grown Ups, addressing the Manchild issue head-on. Also notable: The Expendables, which extended the Manchild ethos into action drama.
Here's where The Hangover effect really kicked in, trickling down to horny-dude-is-horny movies like The Change-Up and Hall Pass, one-drugged-up-night-of-funny-crime movies like Horrible Bosses, and even the odd Hangover-lady movie like Bad Teacher. But the gender card was really flipped with Bridesmaids, the first successful Womanchild movie. HUGELY successful. A breakthrough. And with The Hangover II being such a huge disappointment, Bridesmaids was suddenly the new standard-bearer. (Well it wasn't going to be Jack and Jill.)
Has the time of the Manchild passed us by? Is Ted really the best the genre had to offer us this year? (No, the best the genre had to offer us was 21 Jump Street, but with twentysomethings acting like high schoolers, it feels appropriately a generation away from the Old School model.) Ferrell and Galifanakis didn't make much of an impact with The Campaign, Bradley Cooper and Kevin James were making stabs at semi-seriousness with Silver Linings Playbook and Here Comes the Boom (obviously some more successful than others). And This Is 40 felt almost like a eulogy for the Manchild movie, with Judd Apatow learning to accept his life as an adult.
Is this it, then? Is this the end? Maybe not. We've got the wave of post-Bridesmaids comedies still to come. And Anchorman: The Legend Continues could bring it all back around. If Old School taught us anything (it taught us EVERYTHING), it's that you can always go back and make an ass of yourself at any age.

Nabire – The Regent of Nabire Regency, Isaias Douw, S. Sos., MAP affirmed that essentially the Youth Pledge is spirit. Therefore, Indonesian youth in Papua and especially in Nabire must continuously maintain the spirit of youth pledge in establishing themselves, families, regions and nations.
“The Youth Pledge is full of zeal, the spirit of unity, the spirit of the homeland, the spirit to show the your identity namely the language,” said Regent Isaias answering questions from a number of media crews related to Youth Pledge Day 2017, Saturday (27/10/17) in Nabire.
Isaias explained, “To Our youth today in Nabire, I ask to uphold the spirit of unity among fellow youths without distinction of race and religion. Nabire is Bhineka Tunggal Ika, mini Indonesia, so keep the four pillars of the nation, combat terrorism and radicalism.”
“Papuan youths must be zealous in self-improvement, do not indulge in negative things, drunkenness, drugs and free sex,” exhorted Isaias …
“Love yourself, your family, and your future. Learn things that can add skills to improve your level of life. Unskilled and impassionate youth will be abandoned or defeated by other youth.”
Isaias also hopes that youths who have possession of land, manage the existing land to plant crops that can bring in money. Say ‘no’ to land sale. Land prices will increase, if you sell land it will be the same as giving away your future.
Isaias asserted, “The land of Papua will only be built if we have Papuan youths who fear God and have knowledge, skills and a good conscience.”

Belimumab addition to standard therapy improves results in lupus Nephritis: NEJM
Lupus nephritis, which occurs in 25 to 60% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), is the most common severe manifestation of SLE and a major cause of illness and death. This condition if left untreated, progresses to endstage kidney disease.
Despite aggressive treatment, approximately 60% of patients with lupus nephritis do not have complete remission, and these patients have poor long-term outcomes. This risk has remained unchanged during the past three decades.
Belimumab, a recombinant human IgG-1λ monoclonal antibody that inhibits B-cell activating factor, is approved for patients with active autoantibody-positive SLE who are 5 years of age or older. To date, data on the efficacy and safety of belimumab in patients with active lupus nephritis are lacking due to limitations in sample size and sample selection.
In a recent trial involving patients with active lupus nephritis, more patients who received belimumab plus standard therapy (mycophenolate mofetil or cyclophosphamide–azathioprine) had a primary efficacy renal response than those who received standard therapy alone.
The findings have been published in The New England Journal Of Medicine.
This phase 3, multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 104-week trial under Richard Furie and team, was performed following the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. The trial was conducted at 107 sites in 21 countries. The sponsor (GlaxoSmithKline) supported the authors in the development of the manuscript.
The inclusion criteria were patients of 18 years of age and had autoantibody-positive SLE (antinuclear antibody titers ≥1:80, anti-double-stranded DNA antibodies, or both) that fulfilled the 1982 American College of Rheumatology classification criteria for SLE. At the screening, the patients had a ratio of urinary protein to creatinine of 1 or more and biopsy-proven lupus nephritis of International Society of Nephrology and Renal Pathology Society class III (focal lupus nephritis) or IV (diffuse lupus nephritis) with or without coexisting class V (membranous lupus nephritis), or pure class V lupus nephritis within 6 months before, or during, screening.
Random allocation of patients in 1:1 ratio to receive intravenous belimumab (at a dose of 10 mg per kilogram of body weight) or matching placebo, in addition to standard therapy was done. The primary endpoint at week 104 was a primary efficacy renal response (a ratio of urinary protein to creatinine of ≤0.7, an estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] that was no worse than 20% below the value before the renal flare (pre-flare value) or ≥60 ml per minute per 1.73 m2 of body-surface area, and no use of rescue therapy). Further, the time to a renal-related event or death was assessed.
The following key facts emerged on analysis.
- A total of 448 patients underwent randomization (224 to the belimumab group and 224 to the placebo group).
- At week 104, significantly more patients in the belimumab group than in the placebo group had a primary efficacy renal response (43% vs. 32%; odds ratio, 1.6; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.0 to 2.3; P=0.03) and a complete renal response (30% vs. 20%; odds ratio, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.1 to 2.7; P=0.02).
- The risk of a renal-related event or death was lower among patients who received belimumab than among those who received a placebo (hazard ratio, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.34 to 0.77; P=0.001).
- The safety profile of belimumab was consistent with that in previous trials.
"The current international trial showed that belimumab plus standard therapies for lupus nephritis enhanced renal responses; furthermore, the risk of a renal-related event during the trial was almost 50% lower among patients who received belimumab than among those who received standard therapy alone." concluded the authors.

The quarterback competition Colt McCoy was hoping for never materialized. It appears his opportunity to lead the Cleveland Browns as a starting quarterback only will happen again if things go horribly wrong.
"If it comes to that, if they decide to do something, [I'll deal with it] at that point," McCoy said, via The Plain-Dealer. "But no one has said anything to me yet, and there's no place I'd rather be than here. I'm invested in this city and this team, and I wouldn't have it any other way."
It's uncertain if McCoy would even be the backup if he stayed in Cleveland. Coach Pat Shurmur said the No. 2 job is up for grabs. McCoy has played terrific in two preseason games, averaging over 10 yards per pass. Our resident Browns homer Marc Sessler doesn't want the team to deal McCoy either.
McCoy says things have slowed down for him and he's playing much better. But there's no doubt life is different as a reserve.
"They're spending a lot of time getting Brandon [Weeden] ready," he said. "I'm spending a lot of time in my playbook and watching a lot of tape. I feel pretty comfortable with what we're doing."

Here is a crazy looking old Decca bass guitar from the 1960’s. It was made in Japan and I suspect it was made by the same folks who made the Teisco Del Rey guitars and some other imports from that era.
It features two pickups with rocker switches and controls for volume and tone. It has a plastic guard and a chrome control plate.
As you can see the finish shows some small scratches, nicks and dings but nothing terrible. There is a section of missing binding on the bass side of the fingerboard from the nut to the 5th fret or so (see photos).
One tuner is changed. The neck is REALLY chunky but still comfortable and the small frets are in good shape. Both pickups work and have good output.
The bass plays and sounds good for an early import, and it definitely looks cool. So while it may not replace your Fender or other more modern bass it’s still fun to play and eye catching.
It comes in the black chipboard case you see in the photos. The case is Very worn but is The Original Case .

Over the past few months, we’ve seen drones do it all. We’ve seen someone attach a flamethrower to a drone and roast a turkey, and more recently, we even saw an enterprising Star Wars fan build a flying version of R2-D2 around the frame of a DJI drone.
And yet, we can readily admit that we haven’t quite seen anything like this. For reasons that defy explanation, the fun-loving folks over at Speed Motion Films decided to see how their DJI Phantom camera drone would operate as a blender.
Confused? Well imagine a real-life version of Fruit Ninja, only instead of a samurai sword, you have to rely on the Phantom’s propellers to get the chopping done.
The video description reads, “Watch our drone chop food at full throttle – shot in super slow motion at 1500fps on the $60,000 Phantom Miro camera from Vision Research.”
From grapes and donuts to carrots and eggs, and everything in between, this video might not have a purpose, but it’s a whole lot of fun. Make sure to watch through to the end to see if the drone is able to fly away to safety after a job well done.

] I find it ironic that the man who revolutionized sports entertainment [and] erased the stigma of fakery surrounding it... is the one guy in the company who feels compelled to become a wrestling character whenever a camera light turns on.
In his last match (to date), faced Randy Orton (as Cactus Jack) in a No Disqualification Match at Backlash 2004. Surprisingly lost the match when Randy Orton RKO'ed (Diamond Cutter)Cactus Jack on a bat warped with barb-wire.

The New York Times seem to be the one that debuted the trailer for guitar-rock documentary, "It Might Get Loud" last week, but /Film reminds us that various outlets like Trailer addict have stolen it and released it on their site.
Centering on three "rock guitar gods," Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, U2's The Edge, and The White Stripes' Jack White, the film is directed by Oscar-winner Davis Guggenheim who helmed, "An Inconvenient Truth." But none of the rockers on the poster? Seems odd, no?
Here's the synopsis:
Who hasn’t wanted to be a rock star, join a band or play electric guitar? Music resonates, moves and inspires us. Strummed through the fingers of The Edge, Jimmy Page and Jack White, somehow it does more. Such is the premise of It Might Get Loud, a new documentary conceived by producer Thomas Tull.The film hits theaters in limited release (New York and Los Angeles) on August 14. And we hate to burst your rock bubble, but, it's a decent film, but not exactly essential viewing. We saw it at TIFF last year and it was fine, but not exactly riveting. One of my friends said, "Isn't this something you'd just normally watch on IFC?" That said, if you're big fans of one of these three rockers, you'll probably enjoy it as it does have some fascinating moments and insights. It just won't change your life. The moments with The Edge showing off his crazy guitar effects (a moment of Brian Eno-esque sea squalls in particular) are pretty cool to watch and probably our favorite moments in the picture.
It Might Get Loud isn’t like any other rock’n roll documentary. Filmed through the eyes of three virtuosos from three different generations, audiences get up close and personal, discovering how a furniture upholsterer from Detroit, a studio musician and painter from London and a seventeen–year–old Dublin schoolboy, each used the electric guitar to develop their unique sound and rise to the pantheon of superstar. Rare discussions are provoked as we travel with Jimmy Page, The Edge and Jack White to influential locations of their pasts. Born from the experience is intimate access to the creative genesis of each legend, such as Link Wray’s “Rumble’s” searing impression upon Jimmy Page, who surprises audiences with an impromptu air guitar performance. But that’s only the beginning.

It had been in the pipes for several days, and it is now official, Rafinha will no longer wear the Paris Saint-Germain jersey this season. The Spanish midfielder has just been loaned to Real Sociedad for the next six months. The former Barça joins the sixth in the Spanish league. This season, he only took part in five short bouts of matches in the capital and obviously no longer entered Mauricio Pochettino’s plans.
This loan does not include a purchase option and the salary of the Brazilian international will be shared between Paris Saint-Germain and the Spanish club.

Sorrowland by Rivers Solomon - tpbk
A TIME 100 Must-Read Book of 2021
A New York Times Best Science Fiction and Fantasy Book of 2021
The Stonewall Book Award winner of 2022
Named a Best Book of 2021 by NPR, The New York Public Library, Publishers Weekly and more!
A triumphant, genre-bending breakout novel from one of the boldest new voices in contemporary fiction.
Vern--seven months pregnant and desperate to escape the strict religious compound where she was raised--flees for the shelter of the woods. There, she gives birth to twins and plans to raise them far from the influence of the outside world.
But even in the forest, Vern is a hunted woman. Forced to fight back against the community that refuses to let her go, she unleashes incredible brutality far beyond what a person should be capable of, her body wracked by inexplicable and uncanny changes.
To understand her metamorphosis and to protect her small family, Vern has to face the past and, more troublingly, the future--outside the woods. Finding the truth will mean uncovering not only the secrets of the compound she fled but also the violent history of America that produced it.
Rivers Solomon's Sorrowland is a genre-bending work of gothic fiction. Here, monsters aren't just individuals but entire nations. This is a searing, seminal book that marks the arrival of a bold, unignorable voice in American fiction.

The things that matter most in our lives are not fantastic of grand. They are moments when we touch one another, when we are there in the most attentive or caring way. This simple and profound intimacy is the love we all long for.

SMALL FAITH COMMUNITIES
Remember the popular television show “Cheers”? Its opening song went like this:
Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
and they’re always glad you came.
You wanna be where you can see,
our troubles are all the same
You wanna be where everybody knows
That song is a great description of a Small Faith Community. People who were once strangers come together, get to know one another and, before long, become friends. They know they are accepted as they are and are supported in their struggles as well as their joys.
What is a Small Faith Community?
Small faith communities are relational groups that gather regularly to pray, learn, and share faith. A small faith community is a smaller, more intimate experience of church. Small faith communities provide safe places where people can be open and honest.
Who is invited to join a SFC?
You are invited to be part of this exciting and enriching model of parish life! It’s our hope that everyone would be a part of a small faith group.
What are the benefits?
Here are just a few:
What is the importance of joining a SFC today?
Catholic parishes are meant to foster an experience of love and an experience of faith. In a large parish like St. Thomas Aquinas, that can be a challenge. Among so many, it is easy to feel isolated and alone, especially during a pandemic. Gathering in Small Faith Communities allows the church to become smaller and more intimate. These communities offer what everyone desires: the experience of being known and being loved. SFCs also offer an experience of faith. We all have faith, but most of us need help from others to learn to trust the faith within us and learn to recognize and describe our experience of faith. The more our experiences of faith and love are shared—and this can only happen in a small group—the more we notice God and God's call to be church for one another. SFCs enable us to be who we are—the loved and cherished faith-filled people of God.
What is faith sharing?
It is the simple sharing of our experience that gives us the opportunity to reflect on and recognize God’s activity and presence in our daily lives.
What about the programs used by the groups?
Groups begin with Come as You Are, a 12 session program that is an invitation to slow down and become more reflective about life. It helps people connect with one another beyond the usual “news, weather, and sports” conversations so that they will want to stay together and go beyond this introductory program.
How do the groups meet?
How do Small Faith Communities remain connected to the parish?
Each group has a leader who keeps the community connected to the parish just as the pastor is the connector to the diocesan church and the bishop is the connector to the Pope and the universal church.

A fortnight ago I reported on a Sybil Pye binding for a copy of the first Vale Press publication, John Milton's Early Poems (April 1896). [Read more about this special binding.] The new owner has sent me some images to prove that the binding was made by Sybil Pye.
Marianne Tidcombe wrote: 'Her bindings are signed with a monogram stamp' ['SP'], 'and the date, inside the lower cover, nearly always towards the top of the fore-edge turn-in.'(*) That is indeed the case, only the date is missing here.
|John Milton, Early Poems (1896). Binding signed by Sybil Pye|
The inscription linking this book to the collector who commissioned the binding is as follows: 'from the books of Arthur & Margaret Gillett | 21.4. 1962'.
|John Milton, Early Poems (1896). Inscription|
The titles of quite a few Vale Press books are uncertain. The title on the binding often differs from the title on the opening pages (there are rarely any actual title pages), which in turn differs from the title in the colophon.

This new social justice theory is making academia dangerous for Jews
This June, two Jewish mental health providers at Stanford University alleged they were the targets of anti-Jewish harassment. Ron Albucher, a prominent psychiatrist and Sheila Levin, a clinical social worker, have filed a legal complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on June 15. The complaint alleges that Stanford University’s Counseling & Psychological Services’ Diversity, Equity and Inclusion program became a hostile environment for Jews. The treatment they experienced, the complaint holds, violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
The complaint is a case study in the dangers of Critical Social Justice, a theoretical approach that asserts oppression is embedded in society’s systems and structures and that only the victims of oppression have the lived experience, insight and moral authority to define such oppression for the rest of society.
CSJ can be particularly hard to decipher because it cloaks its core ideology in the language of justice and equity. Who wants — or dares — to oppose such ideals?
But while CSJ purports to highlight existing racism in society, it sets up a false oppressed-oppressor binary that is used by some to portray Jews and other minorities as oppressors. The ideology thus becomes a source of oppression itself.
Antisemitic incidents within academia, I’m sorry to say, will keep occurring as long as the ideology that enables them goes unchecked.
According to the complaint, the CAPS DEI program has promulgated invidious notions of Jewish power, conspiracy and control, relying on “racial and ethnic stereotyping and scapegoating by describing all Jews as white or white-passing and therefore complicit in anti-Black racism.”
“Everybody started attacking [Albucher],” Levin recalled of a DEI meeting when Albucher had refused to read the assigned book, “White Fragility.”
CSJ framework makes it possible to see Jews only as perpetrators of racism and prejudice, never its victims.
This is precisely what happened in May 2020, after a virtual town hall at Stanford was “zoom bombed” with racist messages, swastikas and uses of the n-word. The DEI committee raised the incident for discussion, the complaint alleges, but decided not to address the antisemitism so as not to take the spotlight off of anti-Black racism.
Instead of using the incident to speak about the dangers of antisemitism, participants “accused Dr. Albucher of derailing the program’s focus on anti-Black racism merely by raising the issue of antisemitism,” the complaint alleged. Two months later, according to the complaint, when swastikas were discovered inside a Stanford Church, the DEI program once again took a pass at any discussion of how this symbolism affects Jews.
“I did not feel in the least bit safe saying anything at all,” Levin said. “I feel terrible about it, but I actually watched as staff just tore Ron up just for asking why they omitted swastikas from the discussion…They were talking about his privilege and that he was basically wanting to take up time talking about antisemitism, rather than focusing on anti-Black racism, which really wasn’t true.”
The complaint also alleges that Jewish staff members were pressured to join the DEI program’s “whiteness accountability” affinity group, created for “staff who hold privilege via white identity” and “are white identified, may be newly grappling with or realizing their white identity, or identify as or are perceived as white presenting or passing (aka seen as white by others even though you hold other identities).” No affinity group was created for Jewish staff members, despite their repeated requests for such a group.
Why is this happening?
These incidents are primarily a byproduct of the rapid spread of Critical Social Justice ideology in our institutions. This ideology places demands on its adherents that make it nearly impossible to take an opposing stance without being labelled as racist. The result is that when legitimate cases arise that do not fit the model, they are overlooked or warped in a way that causes even further damage to the victims.
CSJ holds that only those who experience certain CSJ-approved categories of discrimination have insight and “lived experience” that uniquely allows them to render the only acceptable definitions of racism and bigotry for the rest of society. If you don’t fit into one of these approved identity categories and feel you’ve experienced discrimination, you’re simply out of luck.
Under this conception, only members of particular oppressed groups get to dictate the nature of oppression — even its ability to be experienced by others.
We should, of course, listen to all minorities when they share their experiences, because they do have insights others need to hear. But the overwhelming message from CSJ activists is that people must defer to any demands made in the name of those experiences. Those who disagree, don’t fall perfectly in line or just want to examine the issue further risk being labeled “privileged” or racist.
Once people buy into the idea that they have to acquiesce to someone else’s particular outlook, they feel obliged to stay the course, no matter how outrageous the claim. The predictable result is that well-meaning people are acceding to an ever cascading list of radical demands that in some cases may have crossed the line into illegality.
When the outgrowth of such demands produces hostility against Jews, those who defer to the ideological demands are left bewildered and tongue-tied because they thought they were fighting on the side of justice. How could something so seemingly righteous spark antisemitism?
What did the well-meaning people, including many Jewish leaders, think would happen when they suspended their critical faculties and signed on the dotted line of deference?
Did they consider that this simplistic power analysis doesn’t allow for the complexity of groups that both wield power and are victimized, such as Jews and Asians?
Did they consider that the assertion that Jews are complicit in white supremacy would be weaponized and come back to haunt American Jews?
Did they consider that the very rigid understanding of white privilege and the hierarchy of privileges would be used by antisemites to invent “Jewish privilege?”
Did they consider the new Ibrahim X. Kendi definition of equity, which holds that it is permissible to discriminate in the name of overcoming structural inequities , would single out Jews for being over-represented in many fields?
Did they consider that “white accountability” groups would be problematic for many Jews (not to mention many non-Jews) who don’t view themselves as white or identify along racial lines?
Countering these incidents of antisemitism is like playing a game of whack-a-mole and Jews are inherently susceptible. Unless the CSJ ideology itself is held in check and replaced by better models, there will be more and more antisemitic incidents and antisemitic attitudes will spread.
Now would be a good time to rethink what we mean by racial justice. What we have now leaves little room for Jews, or anyone else, to make the world a better place.


Le’Veon Bell is a NFL athlete who raps on his spare time. I’ve heard worst but truthfully his mixtape Life’s A Gamble is not worth listening to. Le’Veon Bell recently signed with the New York Jets but decided to share with listeners “Free At Last”, a song about the contract dispute he had with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Checkout Life’s A Gamble below.
I became familiar with NAV after hearing him on several of Gunna’s tracks. I decided to checkout NAV’s Brown Boy EP and it is decent, I like the tracks 8 to 4 and Athlete. I’m not feeling the track Go to Hell... for obvious reasons #TeamChristian. Anywho, NAV is signed to The Weeknd’s label XO and it’s save to say Toronto has a great catalogue of artist.

Piers Morgan Tries To Place A Rs. 1 Million Bet With Sehwag, Gets Massively Trolled By Indians
Piers Morgan is at it again! The journalist took to Twitter to place a bet with none other than Virender Sehwag.
Morgan tweeted that he bet England had a chance to win a World Cup before India won an Olympic gold. He was ready to bet Rs. 1 million with the Nawab of Nazafgarh.
Hi @virendersehwag, I bet you 1 million rupees to charity that England wins a ODI World Cup before India wins another Olympic Gold. Accept?— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) 30 August 2016
One must remember that they previously had an engagement when Sehwag trolled him for criticising India's Olympic celebrations.
This time however it was other Indians who went after him. And they were relentless. Hopefully the man has learnt his lesson, or has he? Only time will tell. This is what Twitter had to say:
So 50 people from India have tweeted about how @piersmorgan isn't apparently worth the attention he's getting from them. At 2am. Makes sense— Ishita Yadav (@IshitaYadav) 30 August 2016

NEW HARTFORD – Sangertown Square Mall held a job fair Tuesday to help fill the coming need for holiday workers. It’s the sixth year the mall has held the job fair in its center court.
The job fair isn’t only to help stores in the mall hire holiday help, however, as outside businesses were also welcome to set up booths and dip into the applicant pool.
Mall management says that finding and keeping quality workers can be a challenge, and they just want to help their own stores – along with outside employers – do just that.
“This year is actually our biggest one yet. We have 24 employers … with over 500 jobs available, so we have a lot of opportunity here today,” said Victoria Orilio, marketing director for Sangertown Square.
Family Fun Factory confirmed to NEWSChannel 2 that they will be leaving the mall to make room for a new attraction, but mall employees have not yet provided any details. Mall management says an announcement will be coming next week.

Hydrodynamics of Two-Phase Flow in a Trickle Bed Reactor
MetadataShow full item record
Hydrodynamic data from large trickle bed columns are scarce. In this study, pressure drop, liquid holdup, and transition from low interaction regime to high interaction regime were investigated in a pilot-scale trickle bed column of 13 in. inner diameter and 8 ft. bed height, using air-water system at atmospheric pressure. Data were collected in the low gas superficial velocity range, which has not been covered extensively in literature. Gas flow rate was varied from 0 to 400 SLPM (standard liter per minute), i.e., 0 – 70 mm/s, and liquid flow rate was varied from 0 to 60 gpm (gallons per minute), i.e., 0 – 45 mm/s. The system was prewetted in high interaction regime before taking each measurement. Pressure and liquid load were measured using sensors, while flow regime transition was observed visually and by noting the standard deviation in pressure drop. The aim of this study is to record and analyze hydrodynamic data that can closely match that of industrial-scale reactors. The experiments showed hysteresis, indicating multiplicity of hydrodynamic states. For experiments following a consistent prewetting procedure, significant deviation was observed from the pressure drop and liquid holdup correlations in literature. At lower liquid flow rates, flow is gravity driven, while drag forces come into play as liquid flow is increased. In addition, at higher liquid flow rates, liquid holdup is overestimated by correlations from studies on lab-scale trickle bed columns. Lastly, flow regime transition agreed with existing flow maps in literature, with the observation of local pulsing in the bed.

Baltimore City Health Commissioner, Dr. Leana Wen, is working to make training for the life saving drug naloxone more accessible by offering it online.
As reported in The Baltimore Sun:
Dr. Leana Wen, the city health commissioner, issued a standing order in October that allows anyone instructed on the use of naloxone, also known by the brand name Narcan, to get it without a prescription. More than 8,000 people attended training sessions last year.
Now the health department has developed a quick online tutorial, available at DontDie.org, for those who can’t get to the city health department or other demonstration locations.
The battle against heroin has taken on new urgency in recent months as more quantities of the drug have been found to contain fentanyl, a synthetic painkiller that is 10 times more potent.
The online training module was developed with a small grant from the Open Society Institute. The overall budget for the naloxone program this year was $200,000, which came mostly from the state and largely pays for the cost of the drug given out during training.

Dear Mass NOW members,
With confirmation by the US Supreme Court that the leaked draft opinion would indeed overturn Roe v. Wade, the rights of all Americans are at risk.
The federal right to access to abortion without restriction by state mandate is a right for women, yes, but it is a right for humanity as a whole. It is a protection to all regardless of declared gender, age, race, or class.
To be certain, the loss of this right leads to guaranteed restrictions of freedoms that will impact certain individuals harder than others such as people with uterus’, youth, the disenfranchised, the unhoused, those who fall within the poverty margin, and immigrants, to name a few. But it will also impact those we deem powerful, men, those beyond child-bearing, and the so-called one-percent. Because someone has to bear the burden of policing such strict reforms, financing the punishments, and overseeing the charge of tattling on those smeared guilty.
This is a movement in the making. Abortion bans in many states have already been forming across the country in preparation for this moment, putting countless people at risk just because of where they live.
This federal right can still be protected by an act of Congress under the Women’s Health Protection Act of 2021(H.R. 3755), already passed by the House. You can do your part by contacting your US Senator today to get it pushed through the Senate!
