As Black History comes to its annual end, the Black Student Union isn’t slowing down on events to continue celebrating. This week, the student organization held a special seminar on Tuesday, Feb. 23 with actress Keke Palmer as the guest speaker to end the month-long event with a bang.
Keke Palmer is a renowned-actress and activist who is known for her roles in acclaimed films such as “Akeelah and The Bee” and “Jump In,” along with TV shows such as “True Jackson VP.” She hosted her very own talk show “Just Keke,” and co-hosted the “Good Morning America” talk show “Strahan, Sara, and Keke.”
Joining the recognized actress was Esi Fynn-Obeng, a former FIU psychology and communications major who continues to fight for the economic and social justices of African Americans.
Kicking off the seminar, Fynn-Obeng asked questions regarding the star’s time in the spotlight.
Palmer discusses how she balances her life when it comes to music, hosting, and acting through her support system along the way.
“I have always had a good support system when it came to my mom, teaching me how to advocate for myself and also own all that I am.” She continues “…I was always encouraged and that’s how I was able to evolve and transition how I did because my mom really supported me in embracing all that I can do.”
Later, Fynn-Obeng asked Palmer about the biggest influence in her life, leading into an in-depth discussion on how the guest speaker’s mother impacted her when it came to obtaining stardom.
“As I got older, I realized all the things she really taught me and prepared me for when it comes to understanding this [acting] business and I am just grateful because she set me up for success,” Palmer said. “She always kept it real. It’s so special because my mom did theater growing up and that’s how her and my father met… that’s how my mom and I began to realize we shared that same passion.”
Fynn-Obeng and Palmer discussed how important it is to have a support system, especially when coming from a background such as the renowned actress. This led to the conversation on how black people can achieve their dreams, even through the struggles they may face.
“I want people watching me that look like me to know that we are the same. And there is nothing that can stop you from being where I am, but yourself. You know, the black hardships and the women hardships thing, no, we can overcome that and I’ve seen it.”
Mental health is another discussion that was brought during the seminar. Fynn-Obeng asked Palmer how she has been able to maintain her mental health during the current pandemic.
The actress shared how much of her time has been focused on being alone while coming up with ways to center and enhance the love for herself.
As she continues to juggle many projects at once, such as her acting and singing career, she’s focused on unwinding and taking a break.
Afterward, Fynn-Obeng asked Palmer how others can maintain joy as a black person, especially during the recent happenings of the Black Lives Matter protest and the incident with George Floyd.
The actress gave advice on how this can be done.
‘Keep your imagination open… if you’re not, that means that you are not seeing a future or thinking about what you are going to do next… Focus on what you want to see or ‘manifest,’” Palmer said. “As much as there are negative things, there is just as much positive. There is alot of us who love each other and want to lift each other up.”
Palmer continues by discussing the boundaries that people must set in place when it comes to things they see, such as the incident with George Floyd
. She shares her experience witnessing the news on the situation, how it pushed her to join the BLM marches, and even led to an incident with the national guard.
Now that I have all this in my hands, what can we do with this? From that moment, I internalized and held on to so much until I was out in the marching and said all that stuff to the national guard,” she said. “That is all it’s going to lead you to, you can’t keep that in. It is that kind of trauma and pain that black people have been holding on for centuries.”
In June 2020, Palmer participated in a BLM protest shortly after the incidents of Gorge Floyd and Breonna Taylor. A video circulated of her pleading with the national guard to join and march with everyone to help stop governmental oppression.
As the event came to an end, Fynn-Obeng and Palmer held a Q&A where viewers can ask the famous activist questions about her career, her life as a black woman, and advice.
Palmer spoke about representation within the Black community, gave advice for those who refuse to “follow beauty standards,” and gave suggestions as to how people can achieve their dreams, even when they seem big. Moreover, she talked about things in the music and movie industry that are long overdue in consideration of Black women.
BSU will be hosting more events this week in celebration of Black History Month.

Deborah Flint, a mum-of-two from Denton, was 26 years old when she experienced the first signs of having a stroke.
Deborah, who is now 48, is sharing her story in support of the relaunch of the national ‘Act F.A.S.T.’ stroke campaign.
It's reminding people of the symptoms and reinforcing the importance of acting F.A.S.T. and calling 999 if you notice any single one of the signs in yourself and others.
- Face – has their face fallen on one side? Can they smile?
- Arms – can they raise both arms and keep them there?
- Speech – is their speech slurred?
- Time to call 999 if you see any one of these signs
The Complaints and Customer Care Officer at NHS Tameside and Glossop Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) said: “In 1998, I was just 26 years old when I had my first stroke.
“When I woke up, I couldn't walk properly. My arm felt dead and I looked at myself in the mirror to see my face had dropped on one side.”
Being alone at the time, she promptly phoned her local GP practice who contacted her mum and dialled 999.
She added: “In total, I was in hospital for about 2 weeks to undergo intense physio and speech therapy as I couldn’t walk or talk properly.
“I was off work for about 6 months before I totally recovered. However, I have been left with a slight right-sided weakness and when I get tired, the right side of my face droops slightly.”
At the time, the hospital did not know what had caused her to have a stroke and she has subsequently experienced two further Transient Ischaemic Attacks (TIAs).
Deborah continued: “Since the stroke, I have been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), so I still get tired and fatigued. However, this is more than likely connected to the MS.
“I have refused to let the stroke or the MS take over my life - my mantra is that they do not control me, I control them.
“I have since gone on to get married and have two children as well as continue working full time.”
Throughout her recovery she received regular GP visits at home and an Occupational Health Visitor from Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust (ICFT). She has also received yearly checks with a neurologist and is doing well.
Deborah finished by saying: “If you think you or someone you know has/is having a stroke, act fast. It could make all the difference with recovery.”
Dr Asad Ali, Co-Chair at NHS Tameside and Glossop CCG, said: “I want to thank Deborah for sharing her story as it is a stark reminder that having a stroke can affect anyone, at any age.
“A stroke is known as a ‘brain attack’. It is a medical emergency that requires immediate attention as every minute is vital. That is why calling 999 is so crucial. An ambulance can give stroke patients those extra precious minutes, through faster and more specialist treatment via their knowledge of the nearest appropriate Hyper Acute Stroke Unit.”

A recent study published in The BMJ examined the effectiveness of new drugs that are approved for multiple uses. The study found that less than half of the initial approved uses for these drugs in the United States and Europe actually provided significant therapeutic benefits compared to existing treatments. Additionally, only about a third of additional approved uses showed substantial therapeutic value when compared to the original uses. The researchers suggest that when these new uses don’t offer added benefits, patients should be informed about it and the price of the drugs should reflect their value.
The researchers looked at data from 2011 to 2020 and analyzed the therapeutic value of 124 initial uses and 335 additional uses approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as well as 88 initial uses and 215 additional uses approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). They found that almost half of the drugs had one additional use, and some had even more. Most of the approved uses were for treating cancer.
When they examined the ratings given by French and German health technology assessment bodies, they found that 41% of the initial uses and 34% of the additional uses approved by the FDA had high therapeutic value ratings. In Europe, 47% of the initial uses and 36% of the additional uses received high ratings.
The study also showed that when they focused on the first three approved uses, the second and third uses were less likely to have high value ratings compared to the first use.
It’s important to note that these findings are based on observations and not all uses were rated for therapeutic value. The researchers recognize that the assessment methods and scoring system can be influenced by factors specific to each country. However, they conducted additional analyses to confirm the initial results.
In summary, the study found that less than half of the approved initial uses of new drugs in the US and Europe provided significant therapeutic benefits, and the additional uses had even lower rates of value. The researchers stress the need for clear communication with patients when new uses don’t offer added benefits, and they believe the pricing of the drugs should reflect their value.

In the past, Republicans in the largest townships in McHenry County have typically held primary elections to select their candidates for the April election.
The exception was McHenry Township last time around, which held a caucus after which the GOP-nominated candidates for Supervisor and Road Commissioner were defeated by Independents who were appointed while Republicans.
In order to invoke a primary election, major parties have to notify the County Clerk.
Grafton Township Republican Central Committee Chairman Orville Brettman did just that yesterday.
He didn’t do it on his own.
Members of the Central Committee voted for the action.
Attending the meeting were Carolyn Schofield, Cheryl Myer, Charles Hoffman, Fred Wickham, George Gow, Jeffrey Thorsen, Joe Camp, Shannon Teresi, and Orville H. Brettman.
All township offices are up for election next spring.

what are you hoping to gain over and above the
existing Commander multi-radio support that allows you to switch
between a pre-configured set of radios? Just checking an radio
name in a group of radio buttons seems far easier than switching
+ It would be nice if selecting a primary transceiver in
Commander caused WSJT-X to automatically choose the correct
(pre-configured) configuration for that transceiver. That would
require extending Commander to send a message to WSJT-X when the
selected primary transceiver changes.
that is certainly possible, UDP message SwitchConfiguration(14)
will switch a specified WSJT-X client to the named configuration
if it exists. It would need a rather loosely coupled setup where
the user would be responsible for creating the configurations that
Commander/SpotCollector/SC_WSJTX might switch to.


1) The Microsoft XBox One Controller + Cable (Wireless or Wired) for Windows is on sale, about $20 cheaper than the normal Wireless Xbox One controller. From my understanding, it's literally just the normal wireless controller + wire.
However, I can't seem to find out if it's the newer 3.5mm one. On the Microsoft web store, they have 2 editions.
So is there a 3.5mm jack version of the controller that comes with the cable? Since it's cheaper, I want to pricematch, but I'm not sure if it even exists.
I ordered one from Walmart (after price matching) and it says it features a 3.5mm jack: http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/microsoft-xbox-controller-cable-for-windows/6000196488062
Just got it today, and it doesn't have the 3.5mm jack. It's the old one.
2) If I buy a normal wireless 3.5mm Xbox One Controller, can I plug it into my computer using any cheap micro USB cable, and will it require batteries or just power itself through the cable? That's the main reason I want the Xbox Controller with the wire, along with the price reduction.
3) Anyone have problems with the microUSB cable becoming loose? Reading that it happens frequently for the Xbox One controller.

Upon graduation from the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine in 1964, Dr. Wayne Lutz founded Greenhaven Animal Clinic. Dr. Lutz began providing care to both the small animal patients and large animal clients in the area, and it did not take long for the practice to take off.
After his graduation from the University of Illinois in 1988, Dr. William Armbruster decided to return to the area and join his mentor and friend in the veterinary practice. Over the next several years, the business grew into the 3-plus-doctor practice it is today. At Greenhaven Animal Clinic, our focus is on providing cutting-edge veterinary care to both small animal and large animal patients throughout central Illinois.
In the beginning, the practice was focused mainly on large animal veterinary care. Over the years, the practice has continued to provide advanced veterinary care to our large animal clientele, but has expanded the small animal portion of the practice. We are now capable of providing the same kind of cutting-edge care found in much larger cities, but with the friendliness and compassion found in a small-town atmosphere. We invite you to meet your pet's healthcare team and tour our facilities to learn why we are your first choice in comprehensive, state-of-the-art veterinary care for large and small animals.

On Sunday, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) reiterated his position that disaster relief funds for the tornado victims in Joplin, Missouri must be balanced with tax cuts for the wealthy,” Cantor said on CBS’ Face the Nation.
“We live in a country where everyone is equal,” Cantor said. “We are all going through tough times and we should not be singling out people just because their lives have been decimated by an act of nature. If we’re going to hand over 100s of thousands of dollars to tornado victims, that needs to be offset by more tax cuts for the wealthy. It’s only fair.”
The House Republican leader is the first to push for tax cuts for the wealthy as a stimulation for aid related to the disaster that has already claimed over 100 lives. Democrats slammed the Republican leader, saying it amounted to “ransom.”
Rep. Billy Long, who represents the district impacted by the disaster, said Tuesday that he is pushing for federal emergency funding.
“Shock and disbelief best describe the reports from those fortunate enough to have survived the tornado in Joplin,” Mr. Long said in statement after touring the disaster area. “It is comforting to see the strong response from our local, state, and federal authorities and to see the surrounding communities come together and offer assistance during this difficult time.”
Right-wingers responded to Long’s comments with claims of “socialism” and warnings of “big government.”
“It’s time we got rid of the nanny-state,” ranted one right-winger who wasn’t affected by the tornadoes.

President Emmanuel Macron described the reactions of the French services to pacify the Algerian demonstrations in Paris in 1961, demanding the independence of Algeria, in which dozens of demonstrators were killed, as “the unforgivable crime of the Republic”. Macron was the first French president to attend an official ceremony to commemorate the anniversary of the massacre. He paid tribute to the victims on the banks of the Seine, at the height of the Bezons Bridge, and spoke to their relatives.
“The crimes committed that night under Maurice Papon are unforgivable for the Republic,” wrote a press release for the Elysee Palace.
Macron was the first president to attend the official ceremony commemorating the anniversary of the massacre of the Algerians on October 17, 1961 in Paris. The president spoke to the relatives of the victims, paying tribute to them on the banks of the Seine, at the height of the Bezons Bridge.
60 years ago, Algerian demonstrators protested against the ban on Algerians from leaving their homes after 8:30 pm. On that day, police and services brutally pacified the demonstrators and the bodies of the victims were thrown into the Seine.
“Nearly 12,000 Algerians have been arrested and transferred to camps at Coubertin Stadium, the Sports Palace and elsewhere,” the press release said.
Many families have never found the remains of their loved ones. Historians estimate the number of people killed as a result of the massacre at several dozen, and the official number of victims is only three.
Macron “found the facts to be crimes unforgivable for the Republic”
In 2012, then-president Francois Hollande condemned “bloody repression.” Macron went on, commentators comment, because he “found the facts to be crimes unforgivable for the Republic.”
The president laid a wreath on Bezons Bridge and honored the victims with a minute’s silence. “We made more progress in a few months than in 60 years,” says historian Benjamin Stora, who prepared a report on the effects of colonization and the war in Algeria (1954-62).
On Saturday, left-wing politicians, including Alexis Corbiere of Untamed France and communist Fabien Roussel, asked that the Algerian massacre should be considered a “state crime”. Far-right leader Marine Le Pen has criticized “these repetitive and unbalanced regrets”, arguing that Macron belittles France while “Algeria insults us every day”.
A series of events commemorating the victims of Algerians fighting for their country’s independence is scheduled for Sunday in the Seine-Saint-Denis department.

For those not keeping count, one is a caretaker who has been found very guilty of two appalling child murders, while the other is a man who revolutionised pop music two decades ago, but who has been haunted in recent years by allegations about his sanity and sexual preferences. The reason these two are playing on my mind is not the nature of their crimes, proven or alleged, but the reaction to them. Jackson, for example, is being treated as if he’s been found guilty, instead of just charged. One of the fundamental precepts of our justice system is that he is innocent until proved guilty.
Huntley, on the other hand, is guilty and thus is busy being introduced to the very well-deserved life sentence a judge has given him for Christmas. That’s not enough for the tabloids, though, oh no. They want him hung. Or, better, they want a headline declaring that his mother wants him hung. (Yes, they got it. No, I’m not linking it. I don’t even want to given them the measly hits they’d get from this blog.) They also want a witch-hunt of all the people who are responsible for letting Huntley get away with it. Quite who they are is proving to be a little problematic, given that the only three people in the house at the time of the crime were the murderer and his young victims. However, the papers have settled on the police and social service for failing to spot that Huntley had a history of being accused, and even charged, with sexual assaults and violence. “Something must be done,” say the papers, “the government must act.”
There are two problems with this. The first is that Huntley wasn’t actually found guilty of any of these crimes. With marvellous, stereoscopic hindsight we can see that he may well have been, but, well, remember that “innocent until proven guilty”? That said, in a rare burst of both realism and pragmatism (politicians are usually better at the latter than the former), legislation already exists to prevent people with this sort of history getting jobs near children. It just happens that the Police have been rather shoddy in following the procedures laid down in that legislation. Easy to deal with.
The problem is that sending HUntley away for the rest of his life and chastising some police officers just doesn’t feel like enough to certain sections of the British public. They want blood. They have an Old Testament “eye for an eye” impulse, rather than a New Testament “turn the other cheek” instinct. Our tabloid editors have worked out that pandering to that instinct, and fanning the flames of mob outrage, gets them sales.
The most important reason we have a formal court system is that mob vengeance is no way to dispense justice in a society that aspire to being civilised. It’s a reaction to the truism that individual people are intelligent, but huge groups of people are very, very dim indeed. The more our tabloid editors pander to the worst instincts of society reacting en masse to horrific events, the more likely it is that our politicians will enshrine that reaction in law. As Roy Hattersley was saying on Radio 4 yesterday, most of the wost legislation he has seen has come from that knee-jerk legislative reaction to appease the mob.
The real tragedy of all this is that the real problem behind these events gets lost in the tabloid headlines. The difficult issues that society as a whole needs to address aren’t easily reduced to a five word headline, and so are ignored. If Jackson is found guilty, I’d like to see him in a secure mental care institution, not a prison. I’d also expect to see the more considered heads in society giving some serious thought to the deleterious effects our insatiable appetite for celebrity have on those individuals who fulfil that need, especially those who are sacrificed on the altar of mass-media as children, like Jackson. Quite honestly, all I think we’ll see is a combination of the normal gloating over a celebrity brought low and headlines along the lines of “Paedo Prevent Wacko Jacko”.

Functional analysis of two-amino acid substitutions in gp91phox in a patient with X-linked flavocytochrome b558-positive chronic granulomatous disease by means of transgenic PLB-985 cells
Source: Human Genetics, Volume 115, Number 5, October 2004 , pp. 418-427(10)
Abstract:Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare inherited disorder in which phagocytes lack NADPH oxidase activity. The most common form is caused by mutations in the CYBB gene encoding gp91phox protein, the heavy chain of cytochrome b558, which is the redox element of NADPH oxidase. In some rare cases, the mutated gp91phox is normally expressed but no NADPH oxidase can be detected. This type of CGD is called X91+ CGD. We have previously reported an X+ CGD case with a double-missense mutation in gp91phox. Transgenic PLB-985 cells have now been made to study the impact of each single mutation on oxidase activity and assembly to rule out a possible new polymorphism in the CYBB gene. The His303Asn/Pro304Arg gp91phox transgenic PLB-985 cells exactly mimic the phenotype of the neutrophils of the X+ CGD patient. The His303Asn mutation is sufficient to inhibit oxidase activity in intact cells and in a broken cell system, whereas in the Pro304Arg mutant, residual activity suggests that the Pro304Arg substitution is less devastating to oxidase activity than the His303Asn mutation. The study of NADPH oxidase assembly following the in vitro and in vivo translocation of cytosolic factors p47phox and p67phox has demonstrated that, in the double mutant and in the His303Asn mutant, NADPH oxidase assembly is abolished, although the translocation is only attenuated in Pro304Arg mutant cells. Thus, even though the His303Asn mutation has a more severe inhibitory effect on NADPH oxidase activity and assembly than the Pro304Arg mutation, neither mutation can be considered as a polymorphism.

They may be rookies, but the three newest Real Housewives of New Jersey certainly brought out old-school Jersey drama on Sunday.
The housewives attended a First Responders-themed costume party, only to witness a five-alarm fire breaking out when hostess Nicole Napolitano confronted Amber Marchese about the rumors that she heard Marchese was spreading about her being a homewrecker.

Trash, trash talk and talk Teresa Giudice didn't want to hear filled Sunday's Real Housewives of New Jersey.
"I don't go to psychics regularly," said Giudice, who went to see BFF Dina Manzo's friend and spiritual medium, James Van Praagh. "It is weird, right?"
Maybe she should have listened to her own intuition, because she didn't like what she heard about husband Joe's fraud charges.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey celebrated Christmas on Sunday night, and Santa certainly seemed to have a naughty and a nice list.
"There's something nice about being home for the holidays and out of the public eye," said an emotional Teresa Giudice, who faces possible jail time along with her husband, Joe, after pleading guilty to fraud charges. "It's all just hanging over us."

Sunday's Season 6 premiere of The Real Housewives of New Jersey was filled with new blood, old blood, bad blood and – as always – big hair.
Front and center, of course, were the legal woes plaguing Joe and Teresa Guidice, who pleaded guilty to four counts of fraud in March and await sentencing in September.
"Our money's going to attorneys," said Teresa. "I had a normal life, and now I'm in this nightmare."

Despite legal trouble that resulted in Teresa Giudice pleading guilty to four counts of fraud, the reality star had no hesitations about returning to the Real Housewives of New Jersey amid the ongoing court case.

Season 6 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey will feature new blood, old blood and, as always, bad blood.
"The b–– is back, and you can kiss my a–," says a sassy Dina Manzo, who makes a return to the show, which premieres July 13 (8 p.m. ET) on Bravo. (A preview airs June 1.)
Manzo's marital and relationship woes look to take center stage, as do Teresa Giudice and husband Joe's legal woes.
"I'm in this nightmare I can't get out of," says Giudice, who recently pleaded guilty to four counts of fraud.

The Obama administration is increasingly concerned about a wave of digital extortion copycats in the aftermath of the cyberattack on Sony Pictures Entertainment, as the government and companies try to navigate unfamiliar territory to fortify defenses against further breaches.
About 300 theaters on Thursday screened the movie that apparently triggered the hacking attack, a comedy about the assassination of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, after Sony reversed its initial decision to acquiesce to hacker demands that the film be shelved.

(To snob your friends call it a foulard print, scarf in french, the new trendy word to describe a scarf print)
|sources: Style me Romy and Vogue|
|D&G SS 2012|
|H&M SS 2012|
The scarf print... scarf
The easiest way to adopt this trend is to wear a silk scarf (yes, that easy !). You might already have one in your wardrobe so there is no spending involved to be right on trend which is always a good thing for our credit card.
|Sources: Chiara and Hermes|
The scarf print blouse
Wearing a silk blouse with jeans seems to be the winning combo amongst fashion bloggers, wear a silk blouse with destroyed boyfriend jeans to be super trendy or with white jeans for a chic look to the office.
|Soraya, Charlotte and Camille|
|Maria, Krystal and Blair|
The scarf print shorts
Shorts are probably the most versatile way of wearing the scarf print. As you can see on the pictures below the scarf print shorts will look good with anything (if you style them right, bien sûr !). They are perfect with a simple white men's shirt as Rumi, with a sporty twist like my dear Jen or with a simple blazer as worn by E.
|Rumi Neely, Jen and E|
The scarf print shorts are definitely my favorite, and the options are endless. If you're into DYI projects you can easily transform an old scarf into a cool pair of new shorts. Check out how to do it by following Geneva's tutorial here.
The scarf print trousers
I have talked about the silk trousers in the blog a few months ago so I don't need to tell you how much I like these. Wear them with a simple top and a leather jacket and you're good to go !
|Jennifer, Charlotte and Audrey|
The scarf print total look seems too risky in real life but on paper nothing can beat the head to toes foulard outfit worn by Kristin, right ?
|Sources: Glamour FR (younglington) and Kristin in D&G|
Now, if you are falling for this trend, I would recommend that you go for affordable pieces unless you're going for the scarf. I'm not sure that foulard print trousers and shorts will still look very cool a few years from now so it's better not to invest your month's rent on a pair, right ?
What's your verdict, are you into this trend ?
As for me, I think I'm going to pass, or maybe I should use this as an excuse for splurging on an Hermès scarf which has been on my wishlist forever... Any thoughts ?

At the upcoming “HIV Pathogenesis & Cure” and “HIV Vaccines” joint meetings, Editor Caeul Lim, PhD, of Cell Press will be on the hunt for the latest advances and trends in HIV research. As Scientific Editor at Cell Host & Microbe and Trends Reviews, a portfolio of 16 different Review titles at Cell Press, she is on the look out for both ongoing primary research stories, as well as review ideas covering new insights and directions in the field.
The global HIV pandemic has caused a staggering 35 million deaths to date, and after decades of research and development, there is still no cure. Currently, 37 million people are living with HIV infection and will likely succumb to acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) without lifelong antiretroviral therapy. The goal of this conference is to bring together an amalgamation of basic and applied scientists to work together on functional cures and eradication of HIV, in an effort to not only better understand HIV treatment strategies but also the emerging technologies and approaches that will enable the eventual eradication of HIV.
Follow up-to-the-minute coverage of the “HIV Pathogenesis & Cure” meeting on Twitter:
In this Q/A, Caeul Lim, PhD, of Cell Press’ Cell Host & Microbe and Trends reviews tells us what she is looking for at the upcoming HIV meeting
How does this conference fit into the research landscape of the field?
HIV research has been at the core of host-microbe pathogenesis field, as well as our journal (Cell Host & Microbe). Despite considerable advances in our understanding of HIV and its pathogenesis, there are still strides to make to achieve HIV prevention and cure. It is thus a major conference that we would not miss! As scientific editor at Cell Host & Microbe as well as a Trends reviews editor, I am excited to hear about both ongoing primary research, as well as review ideas!
Why is it important for editors to attend Keystone Symposia meetings?
It is quite a privilege as an editor to attend Keystone Symposia as it gives us the chance to hear and discuss more about ongoing research before it reaches our editorial table in the confined form of a manuscript. In addition to these individual stories, I think it is also important for editors to see the bigger picture and future directions of the field.
Keystone Symposia meetings allow us to see what excites the community, new scientific questions that are arising, and new directions and strategies researchers in the field are taking on.
What’s the best way for attendees to get in touch with you at the meeting?
- You can email me at email@example.com
- Or follow me on twitter @galette86
Let me know if you want to schedule a short meeting during coffee breaks, and you will see me at every session and roaming between posters!
What motivated you to choose a career in science publishing and editing?
This is a common story among editors, but my favorite part of my PhD was when I was writing my thesis. While I enjoyed bench work, I enjoyed thinking about science and ways to communicate it to an audience even more. After spending many years focused on one specific question (cell tropism of a malaria parasite), I was also eager to learn about all the other fascinating microbes. Scientific editing and publishing seemed like a good fit, and I was right.
I am constantly learning new biology, and constantly thinking of ways to better communicate research from experts to a broader audience.
What qualities do you think are important to be a good scientific editor?
Communication is key! We need to be able to communicate clearly with our authors, reviewers, other editors, and our readers. Being curious about various scientific topic, and your willingness to explore and understand research outside your comfort zone is also very important.

Simply Sustainable Beauty is a tutorial and recipe guide for DIY beauty and self-care products by Emilie Woodger-Smith. Due out 7th Sept 2021 from Pen & Sword on their White Owl imprint, it's 176 pages and will be available in paperback format.
This is an exuberant and well written guide to spa and beauty products done just a little bit more sustainably and with less waste. The author is adept at explaining the selection of different ingredients and what functions they perform in each recipe. Recipes are arranged roughly thematically: face, body, & hair and have their ingredients listed bullet style in sidebars. Ingredient measures are given for the most part in US standard measures (teaspoon, tablespoon, etc) with some larger measurements given by weight in grams. Most of the ingredients will be readily available at larger health-food stores or online. The tutorials are clearly written in easy-to-follow language and the photography is plentiful and in color. Extra tips and alternative preparations are provided in text boxes with each recipe. For the more difficult to source ingredients, the author has included a resource/retailer guide and short directory to suppliers. The sources are slanted to readers in the UK, but readers elsewhere shouldn't have much trouble finding ingredients for most of the recipes.
There are a number of recipes here which I've never seen in any other DIY beauty products book. There are recipes for tinted eyebrow wax, self browning tanning cream (she promises no "oompa loompa" results), and several skin peels. The recipes use natural ingredients are non-toxic and family friendly.
In fact many of these tutorials would be appropriate activities with younger family members, maker's groups, scouting groups, and similar. It would also make a good selection for library acquisition or home use for DIY/self-sufficiency folks who aren't ready to give up their skincare products but want more earth-friendly and sustainable alternatives.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.

Jigfoot play music for dancing. They approach traditional dance tunes with energy,
inventiveness and, above all, swing. This is music that defies you to stay still, whether it’s at a dance or in a concert performance.
Their repertoire is mainly, although not exclusively, from southern English sources, especially their home county of Hampshire. They work closely with dancers Simon and Jo Harmer developing material based around their inspirational southern English stepdancing.
They also appear as a concert band and created the film short Welcome or Welcome Not.

WASHINGTON — The Senate gave final congressional approval yesterday to a bill renewing the government’s authority to monitor overseas the phone calls and e-mails of suspected foreign spies and terrorists — but not Americans — without obtaining a court order for each intercept.
The classified Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act was on the brink of expiring by year’s end. The 73-23 vote sent the bill to a supportive President Obama, whose signature would extend the warrantless-intercept program for another five years.
The Senate majority rejected arguments from opponents who sought to amend the bill to require the government to reveal whether any Americans were entangled in the foreign intercepts.

The pumpkin is colored and shaded on white paper using Copic markers. The shading adds another dimension. I highly recommend people develop some way of coloring their images but if you don't have any way of coloring a pumpkin image you can always just stamp it on orange cardstock.
If you have been following along you should recognize this pumpkin image as one of the dollar stamps I've been using a lot. You can also think of this card as the final step up on the series of simple orange cards I posted using this image because this does represent what you can do when you move beyond a simple pack of cheap colored cardstock to a higher quality coordinated pack of cardstock and a modern stack that uses the same types of colors.
As always, click on the card for the larger image and direction sheet if you want more.

The planning project provides the framework for habitat restoration and public access elements that will transform a former golf course in Marin County, CA into an open space preserve spanning 157 acres.
In 2018, The Trust for Public Land undertook a massive effort to reimagine a former 157-acre golf course in San Geronimo Valley to a new use that prioritizes conservation, habitat and creek restoration, wildlife connections, nature interpretation, passive recreation, and community spaces.
WRT led the preparation of the Vision Framework, as well as an intense and involved stakeholder/community engagement process. The Vision Framework establishes a broad planning foundation to guide future uses of the San Geronimo Commons, with the primary goals to restore its ecological health and resilient functions, support public access including multi-use trails and compatible recreational uses, and make space for a Marin County fire station and community-serving amenities in appropriate locations.
Today, thanks to the continued work of Environmental Science Associates, Trout Unlimited, and Trust for Public Land, a constrained creek is restored to braided channels that support endangered salmon fisheries. The former golf course is now a meadow and host to a healthy upstream food web ecosystem.

I was awake before the 6.30am alarm we had set after having not great night’s sleep mainly caused by Karen’s snoring as she continued to recover from a cold.
We were checked out and waiting outside the Hotel when Sunny arrived on time to take us to the airport itself.
Excitingly Virgin Upper Class have their own terminal entrance. It is hidden away up behind several barriers is very exclusive. We felt like celebrities as we were driven to it. The concierge greeted us with our names as we got out of the car and he retrieved the luggage from the car and took it to the waiting check in staff. After a couple of photos, we were whisked to our own dedicated security line and within almost seconds of arriving were in the actual airport itself.
This is definitely the way to arrive at an airport. We then had the usual winding walk along with everyone else through the duty-free area. I suppose even rich people may want to buy perfume before they fly or are they all like us and just keep heads down and march through it all as quickly as possible.
We headed to Lounge H which is the Virgin Upper Class Lounge. We took the lift which was exciting as it had seats for the rich people who are too posh to stand for the 1 floor ride up.
The lounge was the best we have been in around the world. The service was absolutely first class in every aspect. We found some comfortable seats and settled in. With restraint we ordered tea before starting on the champagne. My strict diet would be tested today.
From the menu we both ordered Eggs Royale which was superb although only really a half portion that you would get anywhere else. We ordered the other portion half an hour later. We started on the champagne and it just kept flowing. Karen had 4 glasses whilst I kept to just the 3.
Every single member of staff was a delight. I asked one whether they had had any celebrities in recently and she said that Anthony Joshua had been sitting in my seat a few days earlier. She said he was probably the biggest man she has ever met.
I took a couple of newspapers and magazines for the flight.
They called our flight when boarding had started and we were able to walk straight to the gate and get on board with no wait. I was though quite disappointed that at the boarding gate my reserved seat was moved and that I was no longer next to the window behind Karen. There seemed no logic to it as when onboard it just seemed that a single guy had somehow usurped me. I knew that there was little point complaining to the cabin crew as they would have had no input and didn’t want to create a fuss. I will ask the question why later though.
So, we settled into what Karen called our little individual cupboards. In reality there was little difference between the Upper-Class seat on Virgin and the Business Class seat on BA, although being able to Bluetooth my headphones to the TV was a real bonus as was the wireless charging pad for my phone. What was the big difference though was the service which was absolutely first class. We wanted for nothing at any point during the flight. Drinks, food and snacks were constant. Karen had another 3 glasses of champagne before dinner.
The food was really good, as was the ability for Karen and I to go and set in a communal area for a while. It was great to be able to chat on a comfortable bench in different surroundings. We both had the Serrano Ham prepared as our starter followed by Chicken. I then had the cheese board whilst Karen went for the Chocolate Torte.
The flight was long though due to prevailing strong headwinds. I watched ‘Jerry & Marge go Large’ which I had wanted to see for a while. It was based on a true story about a guy who works out a flaw in the Lottery and forms a cooperative to win big every time. It was all legal and the lottery operators knew about it. They won over $20 million before stopping. It is well worth a watch.
Then I watched the new Indiana Jones film which I thought was better than the reviews I had read, followed by The Unlikely pilgrimage of Harold Fry which was also very enjoyable.
Then we were offered afternoon tea. None of your packaged scones or inedible sandwiches for Virgin Upper Class. Karen had a freshly cooked Burger (delicious apparently but somewhat over the top in my opinion) whilst I had a couple of freshly cooked plain scones. Hopefully I have eaten with a bit moderation today overall and not exceeded by too much the recommended daily adult 2000 calorie and after all free champagne don’t count – does it? That will be all my alcohol intake for the trip apart from the free drink on the way home. Tomorrow had better though be a below 1000 calorie day to make up for it.
And then we were there. Being in Upper Class we were off the plane first. Within 20 minutes we had been through Immigration, collected our luggage and making our way to collect the rental car.
Although we had flown with Virgin, I had booked the car through BA. In fact, it was the 4th car I had booked as the prices had continually been dropping through the year. This booking was considerably less than the first one. Also, with BA you get an additional free driver and I planned to add Neil onto the booking. There was a short wait at the desk where we were told that Neil needed to be there in person to be added and as I had Avis Preferred Status I could go straight to the garage where our car was already waiting.
It was a Kia Sportage and was fine. We got it set up and were soon on the 40-minute drive to the Holiday Inn Express at Madeira Beach. I had forgotten until we pulled into the car park that it was adjacent to a Walmart.
We had been allocated the nearest room to reception on the ground floor which was nice. After settling in and having a cuppa we decided to walk to the Walmart to pick up a few pieces. As usual I lost Karen in the store and had to wait until she wandered back to the front of the store.
After another cuppa and catching up on a few messages we were in bed by 9.15pm which given the time difference and the long day wasn’t too bad.

Bithumb, the largest cryptocurrency in South Korea, has launched a case with the Tax Tribunal against the National Tax Service (NTS). The company wants the tax of nearly $70 million disannulled by the Tax Tribunal. It was previously imposed by the National Tax Service on its customers. According to a report, the exchanges foreign customers were hit with a withholding tax of $69.3 million at the end of 2019. This was the first time where the Korean government taxed a crypto transaction.
The famous exchange stated that it will take lawful action against the National Tax Tribunal, and they stood by their words. Today, it was reported that they’ve filed the case. The company claims that it has already paid the fundamental tax amount. And that NTS’s demand for more is “groundless” A bithumb official said – “We believe we will be given a chance to clarify our stance in court.”
It is the payer of the income, who has to pay the withholding tax to the government, and not the recipient. A decision in the next 30 days can be expected from the Tax Tribunal. Bitcoin’s argument is that since digital assets are not officially recognized currencies in Korea, ergo, they should elude them from taxes. This is the primary cause of contradiction. The National Tax Service considers foreign customers, who made gains from Korea must be taxed.
Experts on Bithumb’s Side
Bithumb’s statement has received support from experts that suggests that cryptocurrencies should not be taxed till they are legally recognized. Choi Hwoa-in, an adviser to the Financial Supervisory Service talked about this in-depth:
“Bitcoin under the current law is not an asset. It is clear and simple. The Ministry of Economy and Finance already made that clear. The NTS pushing ahead with the tax imposition is baseless and groundless, especially since it is still awaiting the ministry opinion on the same matter it sought again.”
She also believes that Bithumb case is calculated and they have a chance to receive the full return or at least partially.

Moisés Kaufman and members of New York's Tectonic Theater Project went to Laramie, Wyoming after the murder of Matthew Shepard. This is a film version of the play they wrote based on more than 200 interviews they conducted in Laramie. It follows and in some cases re-enacts the chronology of Shepard's visit to a local bar, his kidnap and beating, the discovery of him tied to a fence, the vigil at the hospital, his death and funeral, and the trial of his killers. It mixes real news reports with actors portraying friends, family, cops, killers, and other Laramie residents in their own words. It concludes with a Laramie staging of "Angels in America" a year after Shephard's death. Written by

Ahoy, mateys! Why not try your hand (or hook) at being a pirate to show all those landlubbers who’s boss? Pirate Radio, presented by Spin Genie, will let you do exactly that. AND you’ve got every chance of stumbling upon some hidden treasure at the same time…
Don’t let a peg leg and chatty parrot stop you from spinning on Spin Genie’s latest 5-reel, 20-payline slot machine – the brilliant, pirate-themed Pirate Radio! Grab yourself a hoard of valuable booty with three fantastic bonus features, including a Free Spins Bonus round, all designed to make your jackpot as big as possible! As you play, you’ll be joined by the captain, a wild red-haired woman, and a cackling, toothless first mate. Shiver me timbers! And once you’ve sailed the sea’s surface, why not explore its depths with Mermaids Millions?
How To Play
Dominate the seas by mastering the simple rules of Pirate Radio. Your aim is to line up 5 Jolly Roger symbols on any active win line, since this rewards you with the ultimate treasure – the jackpot! To play, choose the number of lines in play and your stake per line using the up and down arrows in the centre of the slot machine. You can have any number of lines between 1 and 20 active, and your bet per active line can be between 50p and 1p. Remember: how much you choose to stake will be multiplied across each active line – so 50p across 20 lines is actually £10 per spin! Once you’ve decided, hit START to set the reels in motion, or hit AUTO if you’d like to have a set number of spins played out automatically. Your spins can play out until you hit STOP, reach a certain win amount, or trigger a bonus.
Free Spins Bonus
Get 3 or more Chest Scatter Symbols appearing in the window at any one time, in any position, and you’ll trigger the Free Spins Bonus. On the rocking deck of a ship, you’ll be presented with 2 wheels – one for free spins and one for a multiplier. Stop these reels spinning to reveal the number of free spins won and your bonus multiplier. By the end of this round, you’ll have landed on a treasure island to capture your wins!
Pirate Bonus Round
The Pirate Bonus Round is activated when you get 5 of the same Pirate symbols appearing on a win line. In this exciting round you’ll be awarded 10 Bonus Spins on an enhanced set of reels, with all 20 paylines ACTIVE regardless of the number of paylines played in the triggering spin. And what’s more, if you trigger the Pirate Bonus during the Free Spins Bonus, all wins will be multiplied by the awarded multiplier value. Your chances of racking up wins are endless!
Return To Player
This game has a theoretical RTP of 95.39% - 95.52% which means for every £100 wagered it will pay out £95.39 - £95.52. Malfunction voids all pays and play.

The OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite launched a couple of days ago. The phone got announced in India, and we were wondering in what markets will the phone be offered later on. Well, the OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite will be offered in the US, but under a different name.
The OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite is coming to the US under a different name
This does make sense, as the Nord N20 was on offer since April last year. OnePlus did not officially confirm this, though. A user shared some evidence of this on the OnePlus forums. He dug around the archive containing software builds.
There, he spotted the OnePlus Nord N30 5G name, which more or less proves that a market-specific variant is coming. Chances are that this phone will be identical to the variant that already launched.
The device will be available from OnePlus directly, but also from T-Mobile. The phone’s FCC ID is also mentioned in this software library, which only further confirms that the phone is coming to the US.
The OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite aka Nord N30 features three cameras on the back, and a flat display on the front. A display camera hole is included in the package, and the bottom bezel is slightly thicker than the rest of them.
The device features a 120Hz display, and a 108-megapixel main camera
This smartphone comes with a 6.72-inch fullHD+ LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The phone is fueled by the Snapdragon 695 SoC, and it packs in 8GB of RAM. Two storage models were announced initially, 128GB and 256GB models. Both of them offer storage expansion, by the way.
A 5,000mAh battery is also included in the package, and the phone supports 67W SuperVOOC fast charging. Android 13 comes pre-installed on the device, along with OxygenOS 13.1.
You will find a 108-megapixel main camera on the back of the OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite. A 2-megapixel depth camera also sits on the back, and the same goes for a 2-megapixel macro camera.
If you’d like to know more about the device, click here. We’re still not sure when will the Nord N30 arrive to the US, but chances are it will happen at some point this month.

Tyler Herro of Kentucky announced Tuesday he plans on remaining in the NBA Draft after initially saying he would leave the door open to return to school.
The 6-foot-5 freshman guard made the announcement via a news release, a week after saying he would enter the draft and secure the services of an NCAA-certified agent but would not commit to leaving Kentucky.
However, in the news release, Herro said he is “ready to jump into that next stage.”
Herro was second on the Wildcats in scoring, averaging 14 points per game, and will join teammate P.J. Washington in departing Kentucky early to head for the NBA.
