Note: The following story originally appeared in the tribal newsletter Yurok Today. Matt Mais is the tribe’s spokesman. A ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Bucktail Project, described below, will be held Friday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the project site, near Lewiston.

For Yurok Watershed Restorationist Roger Boulby, building new salmon habitat on the Bucktail Project is instantly rewarding work.
“As soon as we finish each new feature the fish find their way in,” said Boulby, a veteran heavy equipment operator for Yurok Tribe’s Watershed Restoration Program. “I like doing these kinds of jobs because it’s immediately gratifying to see salmon move into the habitat as we make it.”
Boulby is part of a multiagency crew, including the Yurok Tribe and Hoopa Valley Tribe, which has been constructing the Bucktail Project, an extensive river restoration undertaking on the Trinity River. On several different days during construction, the Yurok Tribal member and others in the crew saw salmon — both smolts and adults — and even Pacific lamprey, entering a freshly made side channel. Within a week of the channel’s completion, Chinook salmon were seen spawning in the new gravel bed and jumping over a human-made beaver dam to enter a wetland. Beavers moved into a wetland and began building a new home two-weeks later.
“The Yurok and Hoopa Tribes worked together to create more than a hundred acres of high quality salmon habitat on the Trinity River,” said Richard Nelson, Director of the Yurok Watershed Restoration Program. “In terms of its potential to increase fish populations for future members of both tribes, this was the most phenomenal project that we’ve ever completed. It was amazing to see these results in such a short period of time.”
The Bucktail Project, located about ten miles east of Weaverville, is funded by the Trinity River Restoration Program. The Yurok Tribe and Hoopa Valley Tribe collaborated on the construction project, which aims to improve salmon and steelhead habitat within the 110 acre project area.
The Trinity River, the Klamath River’s largest tributary, was completely altered after the erection of two dams in 1956 and 1963. More than half of the Trinity River above Lewiston Dam is currently shipped to the Central Valley for power production, agricultural, and domestic uses. For the first few decades following dam construction up to 90% of the water was sent to the Central Valley. More than a half a century of reduced flows has caused the river to lose numerous components of a natural/healthy river that previously supported substantial runs of salmon and steelhead.The Trinity River Restoration Program’s focus is to restore salmon population abundance through flow management, and restoration of habitat in the upper 40 miles of the Trinity, as well as in tributaries.
The combined restoration team used cutting-edge technology and heavy equipment to create the natural features, such as beaver dams, split channels and large wood jams, found on intact river systems. The Yurok crew sculpted a cascading side channel that delivers water into an impressive wetland, which spills back into the main-stem of the river. New alcoves, low flow channels, floodplains, and gravel bars were strategically placed along the central part of the river. These interconnected elements serve salmon and steelhead throughout three crucial stages of the fishes’ lifecycle: egg incubation, rearing and reproduction. They also produce the diverse dynamics, including varying water flow, increased ground water storage, and a broader range of temperature regimes, encompassed in a pristine riverine ecosystem.
The river flows for an approximate total of one mile through the horseshoe-shaped Bucktail site. Before the project started, the gap in the middle of the crescent contour was filled with refuse from an old mining operation. The flow velocity and temperature of this section of river, much like most of the present-day Trinity River, was nearly homogenous. Now, it contains diverse habitat conditions, including thermal and flow gradients needed for it to become a biodiverse ecosystem. In other words, the stage is set for the formation of a broadly populated, self-sustaining food chain — the hallmark of healthy fish habitat. To speed up this natural process, the Hoopa Valley Tribe’s Fishery Department will be planting numerous native plants after the heavy machinery work concludes.
All of these attributes were designed, over a period of three years, to function during a wide set of circumstances, ranging from a drought to a 100-year flood event. To fine-tune in the new fish habitats, Yurok Fisheries biologists used a real-time kinematic device, or RTK. An RTK is basically an extremely accurate GPS that can be programmed with the design plans of a restoration project. This highly sophisticated instrument has the capacity to show the operator exactly how deep to cut a channel, so that it performs under the ever changing conditions on the river. The digital tool can also be employed to dial in the depth a wetland and for many other purposes. The RTK enables watershed restorationists to be more efficient, and complete significantly more work in a shorter period of time.
Each of the restoration attributes installed on the Bucktail project have undergone rigorous scientific research and are proven to produce specific benefits for native salmon and steelhead. The fortified beaver dams and large wood jams provide places for juvenile fish to hide from high flows and protection from predation. The purposefully positioned stores of course gravel will gradually deliver substrate, during high water events, to established spawning beds, and cause geomorphic evolution of the physical habitats. The alcoves and wetlands will produce a buffet of bugs for baby fish to feast on, as well as provide refuge from high velocity areas during high flow events.
While the primary goal of the project is to improve salmon and steelhead habitat, many of the fish-friendly features simultaneously benefit migratory waterfowl and other birds, as well as resident mammals and amphibians. For example, the mallards and geese that frequent the Trinity each fall will use the wetlands to rest and feed. The US EPA calls wetlands, the foundation of many cold-blooded vertebrate, plant and bird populations, one of “the most productive ecosystems in the world.” More than 90 percent of all wetlands, in California have been destroyed due to dams, housing encroachment and farms, according to NOAA. In addition to salmon and steelhead, Tribal biologists believe there is no doubt the new marsh will soon be occupied by Western pond turtles, yellow-legged frogs and myriad other native creatures.
On a recent morning, in the three-day old wetland at Bucktail, songbirds stood on logs — put in place by Roger Boulby — protruding from the water, while migrating Canadian geese honked as they passed overhead. A doe and her two fawns sipped from the edge of the cool, clear water. From the deer’s vantage, those adult salmon could be seen spawning in the current. It was easy to imagine, great blue herons, bald eagles and many other animals making a future appearance at this biological oasis.

ONLINE ONLY A Molecular Toolbox for Research and Medicine
The “A Molecular Toolbox for Research and Medicine” weeklong on-line course is designed for high school students to learn different techniques applied in scientific research and the medical arena. Surgeons, physicians, and researchers all work in concert to cure human suffering. While researchers design new medical devices and medicines, the physicians and surgeons use them on their patients. Many physicians and surgeons actually work with the researchers on these designs. They use many special techniques to test and come up with these novel designs. I am sharing with you, many of these special techniques, so that you will have your own “molecular toolbox” with in which to draw from, for your scientific research proposal project.
During this weeklong program, students will explore different contemporary molecular techniques, experience reading current technical journals and design a novel research proposal using these techniques.

What is sshd in Linux?
sshd is a server process of the OpenSSH. It receives the incoming connections with the help of SSH protocol and operates as a server for this protocol. It manages encryption, file transfers, tunnelling, terminal connections, and user authentication.
Roles and start-up of distinct sshd processes
The process of sshd is begun when the system restarts. Usually, the program is located at the file, i.e., /usr/sbin/sshd. It executes as the root. The starting process operates as a master server that receives incoming connections.
This process is generally the one along with the process ID (lowest) or the one that is executing the longest. Also, it is a parent process of every other process of sshd. The below command could be used for displaying the process tree over Linux. It's easy to find which one is a parent process:
Various other processes of sshd are the child processes that represent an individual connection. A newer process is established for all the new sessions of SSH.
- When the SSH server is restarted or upgraded, the only master server is restarted.
- The server is developed hence that the processes of the server providing existing connections proceed to operate.
- It minimizes the interruption to users, for example, when the Sambar server configuration is modified.
- Usually, one of the easiest methods for restarting the SSH server is to apply the service sshd restart command.
- We should be careful when upgrading several configurations remotely because errors can prevent connecting to a server again.
Also, it's possible to kill a single process by killing the process of the server for a specific command, terminal, or user. It can be done, e.g., with the help of the kill -9 command.
It's also possible to execute more than one master sshd process over a similar system. It is very unusual, however, we have found organizational customers with multiple servers executing simultaneously along with distinct configurations.
All the servers will have to listen to a distinct port and will usually have a distinct configuration file.
sshd Configuration file
The SSH server contains a configuration file which is usually the /etc/sshd/sshd_config. This configuration file defines logging, file locations, authentication options, encryption options, and several other parameters.
The SSH server applies the syslog subsystem to log in. There are several ways for configuring syslog and various syslog servers. Several enterprises collect syslog information into the centralized SIEM system (short for Security Incident and Event Management system).
The syslog subsystem can be configured for logging SSH-related data into files under the /var/log/auth file by default on most of the systems. The /var/log/auth file is usually the default log file on most of the Debian-derived systems. The /var/log/secure file is usually the default log file on most of the Red Hat-derived systems.
Both the logging level and syslog facility could be configured inside the server configuration file. It is highly recommended for setting the login level to VERBOSE. Hence the fingerprints for the access of SSH get logged properly.
The newest versions of OpenSSH might automatically log it. However, several distributions of Linux come with various versions that do not log fingerprints without this type of setting.
Seeing at various log files could often acknowledge insights into the reason for the issues. Intentionally, the messages transferred to the client are created for revealing a bit about that user who has logged in as. It is for security causes.
For example, we do not wish the attacker to test the user accounts available over the target system. In other words, more data about authentication failures could often be detected inside the log file.
Manually, the system administrator can execute the server along with the option, i.e., -d for getting other verbose results by the server. Often, it is the end resort when identifying connection problems.
The reason for authentication failures is usually clearly transparent in the output. It might be desirable to execute the newer server in a distinct port as compared to a normal server.
It is because of not preventing new connections to a server. The server will be run along with sshd -d -p 2222 and after that, the client will connect with the ssh -p 2222 [[email protected]]host.
sshd Options in Command Line
Manually, it is very rare to have to facilitate command options for an SSH server. Only users repackaging SSH or making new embedded platforms or new Linux distributions will do it.
The below options have existed in OpenSSH:
- -4: It uses IPv4 addresses only. It may be applied inside the environments in which DNS provides IPv4 addresses; however, routing doesn't work for these types of options.
- -6: It uses IPv6 addresses only. It may be applied to test to ensure that the connectivity of IPv6 works properly.
- -C connection_spec: This option is used to test the specific Match blocks inside the configuration file or inside the combination with the option, i.e., -T. The connection_spec can be defined as a comma-separated of = pairs list, in which could be one of: addr, lport, laddr, host, or user. One than one option of -C is combined and permitted.
- -c host_certificate_file: This option defines the path of the file including the certificate of the host for a host. This certificate is in the proprietary format of OpenSSH.
- -D: It doesn't become a daemon and detach. Often, it is applied when sshd is executed with systemd. It permits the process of easier monitoring in such platforms.
Without using such option, the SSH server detaches and forks from the terminal, enabling itself a process of the background daemon.
Until recently, the latter is the traditional form to execute the SSH server. Several embedded systems will still make use of the latter.
- -d: It enables the mode of debugging. The server doesn't fork and it will exit later processing an individual connection. It could be used to diagnose user authentication and other types of issues.
Usually, it provides more details about the issue, and then it will be set to a client.
- -E log_file: It appends the logs to a particular file rather than transferring them to the syslog.
- -e: Ut writes the logs of the debug to various standard errors. It can be used to debug.
- -f config_fileIt defines the path of a server configuration file. The /etc/ssh/sshd_config file is by default used.
- -g login_grace: It defines how quickly the users should authenticate themselves later opening the connection to an SSH server. 120 seconds is the default but it could be modified inside the server configuration file. Permanently, the timeout restricts reserving resources over a server by starting the unauthenticated connection to it.
- -i: It will be used when the server was executed by using the inetd. But, nobody does it these days.
- -h host_key_file: It defines a file through which for reading a host key. We can use the file, i.e., /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ as the default. Only a single host key could be defined for all the algorithms.
- -k timeout: It is an obsolete option. This option was applied with the 1 version of SSH. Its application is discouraged strongly.
- -o options: It overrides the configuration option described inside a configuration file. It can be helpful to test and run more than one server on distinct ports.
- -p port: It defines the port that a server receives. 22 is the default port. The port could also be described inside a server configuration file.
- -q: It doesn't transfer anything to a system log. It is not suggested. One of the actual uses of this type of option will be for various attackers for hiding the logins with the backdoor. Really, this option should not be there.
It reads a server configuration file, inspects the syntax, and exits. It is helpful to check that a configuration file is fine before rebooting the server.
Especially, inspecting the configuration file is essential when remotely updating the configuration. In these types of cases, it's better to test a new configuration by executing the second server over a new port and only reboot the main server after login with the help of the test server successfully.
It could be combined with the options -C for testing a single Match block inside the configuration file.
- -t: It checks the configuration file and referenced key's validity. Check -T option for advice on extra resting before remotely rebooting the server.
- -u len: This option contains only one helpful aim: describing -u0 reasons dotted IP addresses to be saved inside the utmp file.
It also disables the lookups of DNS by an SSH server when the from=patterns or authentication techniques over the authorized keys don't need them.

Three seagulls have died after suspected air gun attacks at a Sunderland flat complex.
The RSPCA have launched an investigation after being called to three separate incidents in 10 days at the River Quarter Flats complex in Lambton Street.
One gull was found dead when inspectors arrived, while two others were injured and had to be put to sleep.
In the most recent case, on April 30, animal rescuer inspector Helen Nedly was called to reports of an injured gull by a neighbour.
The bird had a pellet wound in her front and a broken wing and sadly had to be put to sleep to end her suffering.
On April 27 another inspector from the Northumbria RSPCA group attended the complex following reports of an injured gull with suspected shot wounds which also had to be put to sleep.
And on April 19 the RSPCA were called to reports of a dead gull found on a balcony at the flat complex which again appeared to have been killed in suspicious circumstances.
Helen believes someone in the area is shooting at wildlife and is keen to trace the person responsible.
Helen said: “It seems that someone has decided to take shots at gulls in this area and we know of three casualties which have died in suspicious circumstances.
“It is very concerning to think someone is using a weapon in a public area and has deliberately targeted innocent animals like this by shooting at them. There may be other dead birds or injured birds around which have not been found.
“I am keen to find the person responsible and am appealing for anyone who can help my investigation to get in touch.
“Unfortunately, attacks like this are not as rare as we would like and wildlife are more susceptible to these incidents simply because they are out in the open with no-one to protect them.”
All wild birds, including gulls, are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 so it is illegal to deliberately kill, injure or take gulls except under licence.
Anyone with information should call the RSPCA appeals line on 0300 123 8018.

The numerous safety measures put into force as part of New York City’s Vision Zero plan seem to be having an impact. As DNAinfo reports, fatal pedestrian accidents are down substantially so far this year compared to 2013, the year before Vision Zero was adopted. However, not all groups are experiencing the same benefits of Vision Zero equally. In contrast to the decrease in pedestrian accidents, fatal bicycle accidents are on track to being higher in 2017 when compared to 2013.
Traffic safety improvements
The first six months of 2017 have, overall, been much safer for New York City residents when compared to the first six months of 2013. There have been 93 traffic deaths in the city for the first half of this year, which is the lowest for that time span since 2013. Pedestrian deaths have seen an especially large decrease, dropping from 83 in the first half of 2013 to 48 over the same period in 2017.
Not all groups are experiencing the same improvements, however. Cyclist deaths are actually increasing, from just seven in the first half of 2013 to nine so far this year. Motor vehicle occupant deaths are also up, from 23 in 2013 to 27 in 2017. Motorcyclist deaths, at 11 so far this year, are down from the 15 in 2013, but are higher than the six in 2016 and the 10 in 2016.
Enough protection for cyclists?
As Gothamist reports, it is important to point out that much of the increase in cyclist deaths comes down to an increase in ridership. The number of cyclists has increased in the city by about 150 percent since the mid-1990s. Since then, the rate of cyclist deaths has also been declining. There were 44.2 cyclist deaths for every 100 million bike trips in the city between 1996 and 2000, whereas between 2011 and 2015 that figure had dropped to 12.8.
Nonetheless, the fact that cyclist fatalities themselves have been rising over recent years is troubling and a sign that more needs to be done to protect cyclists. Currently, only about 20 percent of New York City streets have bike lanes. While the Department of Transportation has said it plans on adding 50 miles of new bike lanes each year, only 10 miles of those will be protected bike lanes.
Personal injury law
Being involved in an accident, especially as a pedestrian or cyclist, can be traumatizing and the injuries may take months and even years to recover from. In many cases financial compensation may be available to help address expenses related to medical treatment, lost wages, and pain and suffering. A personal injury attorney can help accident victims understand what options they have available and help them pursue whatever compensation the y may be entitled to.

|Drink the whole thing, dust and all.|
The first time I heard it was Tori Amos' version which is a B-Side from Under the Pink's "Cornflake Girl" UK single. If you were ever into Tori, you sought these things out. It's the version I first hear in my head since it's ingrained deeply. I played this thing over and over again, obsessed with the melancholy longing to want to get completely drunk on someone. There's a sense of morbidity in love that is rarely talked about explicitly, but I often hear in the best love songs. Tori's take on the song seems to drown in that submission and it's captivating. But eventually, I had to hear the original.
Remember that Janet Jackson song, "Got Til It's Gone" where she sampled Joni Mitchell and Q Tip kept saying "Joni Mitchell never lies"? Yeah, he wasn't lying either. Though her's is not my favorite, I think it's interesting that her's seems to lean a little more towards the defiant joy of a complicated, sometimes combative and maybe even slightly abusive (?) relationship. I mean it's her song, she knows what it's about so it makes sense her performance seems to stay closer to the emotion of the lyrics. And again, it's entirely possible the difference between these two versions is all in my head. But it is what it is and it's what this song is to me. So, then there was Prince.
Only Prince can do that. He takes it to a level that is at once true to both of the other two versions but amps up the sexy to the point that this is a bedroom jam. It's candle light and satin sheet music and it somehow fits perfectly. I don't normally go for this type of R&B, but this is just so different from the original that it's hard not to appreciate what he's done here. I'd mention the fact that it's coming from a male point of view when the song seems to be coming from a much more traditionally feminine perspective, but the truth is, Prince has never been tied to any gender and that fact also manages to add another layer of depth to this. Because at the end of the day, what does gender have to do with it? It's a direct challenge to preconceived notions that while now a days is beginning to seem obvious, wasn't always so. Anyway, one more to round this out, which I just discovered, can't stop listening to and I think has become my favorite.
Ana Maoura's fado version is absolutely perfect to me. It's a no-brainer to take this song of longing and do it in a style that is all about longing. This really brings the atmosphere of someone drinking a case of bittersweet memories of their lover in a lonely tavern to life in a way none of the other versions do. I could feel all of these, but I can really see this one. I'm in that room. I'm drinking with her. I get it in a way that can't be explained. That's perfection and I could drink many cases of that shit.

BMW is bringing its new X2 and i8 Coupe along to the North American International Auto Show for a pair of world debuts in Detroit.
The automaker says in a news release that the first-ever BMW X2 comes a year after the X2 Concept appeared at last year's show inside the Cobo Center in downtown Detroit. BMW's reveal press conference is scheduled for 9:35 a.m. Jan. 15, 2018.
The first-ever X2 comes with a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission. BMW says the coupe goes from 0 to 60 mph in 6.3 seconds, makes 228 horsepower and 258 pounds of torque, and will hit dealerships in spring of 2018. BMW describes the design as "fast-moving body language and low-slung proportions of a couple with the robust construction of a BMW X model."
The automaker has photos of the European model on its media website:
As for the 2019 BMW i8 Coupe, the German automaker says this world debut comes after showing off the i8 Roadster at the Los Angeles Auto Show last month. The i8 Coupe is an enhanced hybrid, and BMW touts it as the world's top-selling sports hybrid car since 2014.
The 2019 model makes 369 horsepower, an uptick of 12 from 2018, and is said to hit 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph. The i8 Coupe and Roadster models will hit dealerships in the spring of 2018.
A price has not been announced by BMW regarding either of the vehicles set for Detroit world debuts.
BMW says it will bring along the i3, X7 iPerformance Concept, M3 CS, M5 and the X3 to the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
The 2018 NAIAS opens to the public from Jan. 20 to Jan. 28 at the Cobo Center in Downtown Detroit. Press preview days are scheduled for Jan. 14 to Jan. 16, which is when to check in with MLive for any breaking news or coverage of fresh reveals.

ABOUT THE BOOK
Small towns are nothing if not friendly. Friendship, Wisconsin (population: 689 688) is no different. Around here, everyone wears a smile. And no one ever locks their doors. Until, that is, high school sweetheart Ruth Fried is found murdered. Strung up like a scarecrow in the middle of a cornfield.
Unfortunately, Friendship’s police are more adept at looking for lost pets than catching killers. So Ruth’s best friend, Kippy Bushman, armed with only her tenacious Midwestern spirit and Ruth’s secret diary (which Ruth’s mother had asked her to read in order to redact any, you know, sex parts), sets out to find the murderer. But in a quiet town like Friendship—where no one is a suspect—anyone could be the killer.
No One Else Can Have You is a weird book with a strikingly odd main character, Kippy Bushman, who lives in a safe, small town of Friendship, Wisconsin. I am aware of all the did-not-finish, what-a-slut-shaming-main-character, what-the-hell-is-this-book responses out there and you know what? All that coupled with a healthy dose of unease is a vital part of No One Else Can Have You. The reader has to be far out of reach of their comfort zone to read and enjoy it. So yes, I understand why certain readers couldn’t stomach all the weirdness that is this book but I could, I did and it was gruesomely aweinspiring.
The prologue of No One Else Can Have You sets such an eerie-ingly horrifying tone and that it’s hard not to cringe. It’s about a page long and it’s so disturbing that it still lingers in the back of a mind.
Kippy Bushman is equally flawed in her judgements of people and in her awkward quirkiness. She’s obviously had a hard time connecting to people which is painful to read about. Her relationship with her father, Dom, is as bizarre as the turtlenecks that are her standard choice of apparel. Ever since she lost her mother to madness and imminent death, Kippy Bushman has been overly attached to her only friend, Ruth Fried. But now that’s Ruth dead, well, that is enough of a push she needs to spring out of her shell.
You see, despite being her best friend, Ruth did not like Kippy. Sure, she appreciated their friendship but she wasn’t as good a friend as she seemed to be. And to know that your only friend in the world thinks that you’re pathetic to the point of being nauseous and that she was having an affair with a much older man only a few hours before that friend’s funeral is all just too much for Kippy to comprehend. So it’s no wonder that the funeral turns out to be the disastrous of funerals which is only the beginning.
Kippy is torn between her grief and anger over Ruth’s murder. With Ruth’s parents out of town, Dom acting all soft towards her and Ralph being his usual video-game-obsessed-neighbour-slash-second-best-friend, she turns to Davey to express her unease over Ruth’s murder and her alleged killer. Davey is Ruth’s brother back from war in Afghanistan minus one of his fingers. The almost-strangers-to-each-other duo manage to work together for a while before it all goes even further south for Kippy. With an avenging Sheriff, an overprotective father and a sketchy old lawyer, Kippy has her hands full trying to sort it all out but with a history of unintentional violence, it’s only a matter of time before the nice small town of Friendship turns on her for supporting the alleged killer.
No One Else Can Have You is a debut that tests the reader with its endless oddities. Despite being a little wary to pick it up, the disturbing prologue and the engaging mystery soon replaced my wariness. Whilst there are some things that are somewhat ridiculous and a bit exaggerated, they’re dismissible enough to not affect the murder mystery. Guessing and trying to sort out the mystery coupled with a dark and looming tone of the story makes the experience of reading No One Else Can Have You unique. If you are into reading an uncomfortable, character-driven story of a strange girl with her stranger behavior who’s too cool for a town named Friendship, this book is for you.
‘But I guess I still have this fear that you can catch invisible things from other people. That someone else’s insanity can creep under your skin and fry your brain.’
‘Now that I’m awake, I think of what I’ve lost and tumble between utter remorse and childlike hope, anxiously retracing all my wrong moves and praying for time machines. Part of me imagines clawing through the jungle surrounding this asylum, and crawling all the way to Davey—playing some kind of love song on a guitar outside his window, even though I don’t know how to play guitar—and begging for his company back.’

Micah Richards praises Fiorentina teammate Salah
Fiorentina’s latest addition Mohamed Salah was a Man of the Match contender after his outstanding performance against Sassuolo on Saturday.
With a goal and an assist to his name, the 22-year-old Egyptian drew much attention after his impressive full debut with the Viola, having been loaned from Chelsea until the end of the season.
The post-match comments were full of praise for Mohamed Salah, especially those coming from his new teammates. English international Micah Richards, also loaned from an EPL side – Manchester City – praised Salah as he told Sky Sport Italia: “Salah is a very good addition and is a great player. He played in the Premier League like me, this will be very helpful.”
On the other hand, the Viola are now focused on their upcoming match against Tottenham on Thursday the 19th in the Europa League round of 32.
“Tottenham will be a difficult match. They are in great form at the moment, it will be a difficult game,” said Richards.

The South Coast region in KwaZulu Natal is that special part of the east coast of South Africa which stretches from Durban to Port Edward. The South Coast is no longer a closely guarded secret but has become a major tourism and holiday destination with its pristine beaches, wildlife and high standard of holiday facilities.
Just five kilometres offshore lies the internationally-renowned Aliwal Shoal - a fossilised sand dune of sponges, soft and hard coral. Aliwal Shoal attracts not only a wide variety of warm - and cold- water fish, but also many Ragged-Tooth sharks an awe- inspiring and surprisingly safe adventure! There has not been a single recorded shark attack on a scuba diver here, and the number of dive companies, plus underwater- themed accommodation, restaurants and taverns bear witness to Aliwal Shoal's popularity.
Tours to view the whales and dolphins that cruise and frolic past the shoal make for a spectacular South Coat activity
Head inland from the South Coast and you re in traditional Zulu territory, and with it, the chance to witness at first hand all the song and dance of a living culture. Climb the imposing Execution Rock - a short distance beyond the village of Dududu - for vast, spectacular views and a spot of daydreaming about days gone by. Stories abound of the colonial eccentrics who renounced their 'duties' to immerse themselves in the 'alternative' Zulu lifestyle here. It's still possible to see your future laid out in a throw of the bones, or return home with authentic handicrafts and a highly - descriptive, custom-divined Zulu name - all guaranteed to suitably impress your friends!
Half an hour beyond Umzinto lies the 2 189 hectare Vernon Crookes Nature Reserve, a combination of open grassland and coastal forest... home to a wide range of wild animals plus more than 300 confirmed bird species. KwaZulu-Natal Wildlife Service maintains the reserve and its accommodation facilities.
Yet further inland, the small town of Highflats is a convenient base for exploring
cultural sites relating to the truly ancient San people. Caves,
rock paintings, religious shrines and ceremonial sites bear witness to this
fascinating culture's deep understanding of the relationship between Man and
Nature. The San's mystical communion with the Eland has imprinted much of the
region with artistic homage to this regal antelope. Evidence of Voortrekker
wagon routes into the Zulu Kingdom from the
Drakensberg mountains is found along the old St Faiths road heading seawards
Umkomaas is not unexpectedly a bountiful line-fishing locale, too, and away from the briny its challenging, heavily wooded and bunkered 5479m golf course was designed specifically to test those who boast a low handicap. Just south of the town is a sheltered surfing and bathing beach at Widenham, followed by the former German-American mission of Clansthal...with its rail station, well-situated caravan park and up- market holiday cottages right on the beach. At the southern tip of this beach is Green Point...our coast's original (but obviously no longer) 'Secret Spot' for surfers who travel the world in search of uncrowded point breaks where the waves peel off in unison for hundreds of metres at a time. As with all such 'unofficial' surfing destinations along out coastline, there are no shark nets or lifeguards...and belong only in the realm of experienced wave-riders. The Green Point lighthouse is a National Monument and much sought- after attraction for those interested in a different aspect of the ocean.
Scottburgh, where Mphambanyoni River and Indian Ocean meet, is the next port o' call - literally so in the 1860s, when would-be shipping magnates moved their harbour-building attempts there from the failures at Mkomazi River mouth. Named after colonial Governor John Scott, it was the first township to be laid out south of Durban, but not the first successful port - that dream was scuppered within a few years.
A little south of Scottburgh - and inland from the picturesque, safe beach at Park Rynie - is Sugar Country...centered around the predominantly Indian-influenced town of Umzinto. These are the cane-fields whose yield precipitated the flurry of transport initiatives around the turn of the century...and whose legacy of indentured plantation labour and immigrant traders from the Indian sub- continent informs much of today's South Coast society. In early magistracy, Umzinto also witnessed the first horse races south of Durban, and many a pioneering fortune changed hands at these meetings!

Trauma and Substance Abuse: Causes, Consequences, and Treatment of Comorbid Disorders
For individuals in the U.S. & U.S. territories
This edition is no longer for sale. However, the Second Edition is available.
Trauma and Substance Abuse explores the underrecognized connection between trauma, substance use, and posttraumatic stress disorder. Patients with trauma related distress such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) often have comorbid substance use disorders (SUDs).
This book presents cutting-edge research on how often the two disorders co-occur and why. Authors describe models of comorbidity and explore how specific PTSD and substance use symptoms are functionally related to each other. In addition, they suggest assessment approaches and practice guidelines to facilitate proper diagnosis and treatment. Particularly valuable are descriptions of several new treatment approaches that have been developed specifically for PTSD–SUD, including cognitive–behavioral and exposure therapy. This is the first book to evaluate and synthesize the two fields of PTSD and substance use disorder research and treatment.
This volume is indispensable for researchers and clinicians seeking a full understanding of the etiology, assessment, and treatment of this challenging dual diagnosis.

The Sitka Wolves prowled into Petersburg last weekend to challenge the Vikings boys basketball team.
Sitka left with a handful of wins but the story is more interesting than the scores show.
The Vikings have struggled this season with starting ballgames well, but Friday’s varsity game showed improvement in that respect.
Vikings Head Coach Rick Brock described the first quarter as passionate and competitive with a momentum that carried into the next quarter, until halfway through the second quarter when the Vikings started fouling.
Sitka would make their free throws, the Vikings would miss, then foul.
“We got into a bad rhythm, and that’s where they stretched their lead,” said Brock.
“Sitka is very explosive on the offensive end. They score quickly and in bunches,” said Brock. “At the end of the game they were able to take their lead and stretch it way out.”
The final score was 74-46.
Tristan Welton was Friday’s top scorer for the Vikings with 14 points. Taylor Pullar brought in 12, Dan Loucks added 8, and Hugh Fleming scored 6.
“On Saturday we had to regroup,” said Brock.
The Vikings started the game even more aggressively than the night before and had a 21-14 lead at the end of the first quarter.
Coach Brock described it as, “Really one of the best quarters we’ve had all year against a very, very good team.”
That momentum carried into the second quarter. Sitka made a buzzer beater at halftime to take a one point lead 29-28.
In the third the Viking defense went a little flat and the Wolves stretched their lead out by a few possessions, but the Vikings stayed competitive.
“In the last three minutes of the fourth quarter they just blitzed us, ending the game 73-48,” said Brock. “I feel the game was much closer than the score suggests. We were within striking distance all the way until the last few minutes of the game.”
“People are saying they are the team to beat in the conference, and for us, especially in Saturday’s game, to stay competitive for most of the game… You’ve gotta be happy about the progress we’ve made,” said Brock.
The Vikings have improved the way they start their games, but they’re still not shooting as well as they could.
“Hopefully that’ll be the next progression that we go through. Offensively we will continue to get better at working together and knocking down the shots that are available,” said Brock.
Petersburg’s JV games against Sitka followed a similar pattern, harder fought games than the final scores suggest.
Friday was a Wolves win, 58-33 with Kayin McCay leading Petersburg scoring with 12.
Saturday another Sitka JV win, 65-48, Colby Bell leading the Vikes with 12.
In Saturday’s game the Vikings were ahead most of the ball game until partway through the fourth when the Wolves went on a huge end of game run.
“It was very competitive, a good bounce back from Friday’s game,” said Brock.

As Eli Lilly inches ever closer to the finish line in its yearslong mission to bring an Alzheimer’s disease drug to the market, the company has picked up a side quest.
The Big Pharma is joining forces with Roche’s diagnostics arm to help develop the latter’s Elecsys Amyloid Plasma Panel (EAPP). The EAPP is a blood test that could help doctors reach definitive diagnoses of Alzheimer’s and therefore begin treatment earlier in the disease’s progression—ideally, well ahead of the 2.8 years after symptom onset that marks the current diagnosis point for the average patient.
“Today, over 55 million people are living with dementia, and this is projected to increase to nearly 140 million by 2050. Collaboration is essential to ensure these people receive a timely and accurate diagnosis,” Roche Diagnostics CEO Matt Sause said in Wednesday’s announcement.
Financial terms of the deal weren’t disclosed.
The EAPP test looks for two biomarkers in the plasma that have been linked to Alzheimer’s disease: the phosphorylated Tau (pTau) 181 protein—which has been found to build up in the early stages of the disease—and apolipoprotein (APOE) E4, the most common genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s.
The blood test isn’t meant to be used as a standalone diagnostic, but Roche has suggested that it could help winnow out the most likely patients for further confirmatory testing. A negative result for both biomarkers would indicate that a patient is likely amyloid-negative, meaning any cognitive decline they’re experiencing stems from a condition other than Alzheimer’s, according to the company.
The test has already received the FDA’s breakthrough-device designation. When the company announced the designation last July, Roche noted that EAPP is the first blood-based biomarker test for Alzheimer’s to receive the tag. So far, other tests recognized or cleared by the FDA have largely relied on samples of cerebrospinal fluid.
Though Roche has already put in much of the groundwork in developing EAPP, it tapped Lilly to help push it through the final stages of testing, leading up to an FDA review optimistically planned for 2025, Bruce Jordan, Ph.D., head of Roche Diagnostics’ personalized healthcare solutions, told Reuters.
Roche is planning to launch a two-year trial studying the test’s performance in several hundred people with early signs of dementia. That’s a particularly unwieldy task, according to Jordan, since it’s unclear how many individuals who voluntarily approach their doctor to discuss cognitive decline actually have Alzheimer’s. This makes it difficult to know how many people must be recruited to the study to prove the test’s sensitivity.
“We acknowledge that this is something that a single entity does not have the best chance of solving on its own, so we partnered up with Lilly,” Jordan told Reuters.

The number of conversions from rental apartments to condominiums rose to a record high in 2021 with 28,595 units in Berlin. In 2020, owners used the right in 19,189 cases, which was significantly more than in previous years. According to the Senate Department for Urban Development, 119,804 apartments have been converted in Berlin since 2015.
The reason for the sharp increase in 2021 was obviously the approaching restriction on conversions by the Senate. Many owners therefore took the last opportunity to convert before the law came into force.
In June 2021, the Bundestag decided with an amendment to the building code that the municipalities should from now on have more power against the conversion into condominiums. On this basis, Berlin banned the conversion to ownership citywide for all houses with more than five apartments. The only exception to this is if two-thirds of the tenants of a house would buy the apartments they use themselves. (There are also special regulations for inheritance.)
This ended the previously common practice of conversions. Only 15 applications for a total of 340 apartments have been submitted since then, according to the response from the Senate Department. Applications for 57 apartments of these were approved. For the rest, the proceedings are still ongoing.
In the past two years, 20,550 condominiums have been resold. The tenants were only in 1250 cases the buyers. Buying a home is not affordable for many tenants.
Overall, the ownership rate in Berlin's housing stock has risen slightly in recent years. In 2020 it was 34.2 percent. A total of 15.9 percent of the apartments in Berlin are used by the owners themselves.

Two UN agencies, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and UN Environment, have commended Nigeria’s efforts at adopting global solutions towards creating a safe, secured and sustainable environment. They, however, urged government to put in more efforts, given the enormity of environmental problems and attendant consequences facing different parts of the country.
Speaking at different side events during the ongoing 6th Assembly of the Global Environment Facility (GEF) in Vietnam, the organisations specifically called on Nigerian government to speedily clean up the Niger Delta region of oil spills as well as restore the vegetation of the desert-prone northern region, believing that those efforts would accelerate economic opportunities in the two regions, thus enabling lasting peace.
The side events came shortly after a plenary of the GEF Assembly, on Wednesday, June 27, 2018 chaired by the Natural Resources and Environment Minister of Vietnam, Tran Hong Ha , during which heads of delegations agreed on the urgency of governments across the globe to unite and scale up funding, innovations and ideas to save a deteriorating planet.
Briefing journalists, the UNDP Administrator, Mr. Achim Steiner, who stressed the need for different governments to work more strategically and ambitiously in creating economies that are ecologically healthy, submitted that many countries in Africa, particularly Nigeria, were making great efforts to entrench green economy, even though there were still lots of work to be done.
“Having spent 10 years living in Nairobi, Kenya and heading one of your programmes in Africa, I have never had any reason to complain about leadership from Africa.
“For there is green economy, for there is biodiversity population Africa has already invested. There is a great deal of leadership coming. There is also a great deal of transformation happening on the environment of natural resources of wildlife across the continent.
“I think our greatest focus right now is how to engage government and the economic players on the African continent to allow that transition towards green economy and sustainable economy to form African development planning,” said Steiner, while answering questions on the level of cooperation needed from African countries.
Steiner went ahead to list some commendable efforts by the government of Nigeria to include the launching the first green bond in Africa and investing massively in renewable energy.
He, however, expressed displeasure over the inability of the government to conclude the clean-up of Ogoniland, saying the Nigerian government should also extend its good leadership to the important project by collaborating with oil companies to put in place the remedial action necessary to restore what he described as one of the greatest catastrophes on the environment.
His worlds: “I think in Nigeria we have seen the first green bond on the continent being raised. A couple of years ago, I think we have seen enormous investment in renewable energy and we have also seen a significant amount of financial leveraging green environment into the treasuries and into the financial institutions.
“The other aspect has to do with some of the painful abuses of nature. Nigeria as you know has been struggling to clean up the oil spill in the Niger Delta and it continues to be my deepest hope that the commitment of the government and the oil companies will finally put in place the remedial action necessary to restore one of the greatest catastrophes on the environment on the continent in the near future. As has been tested, I think we have seen good development. So I hope this is another example of a government of the African continent taking leadership role in also addressing that problem in the development legacy”.
Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, on behalf of President Muhammadu Buhari, on August 7, 2017 set in motion a $1 billion clean-up and restoration programme of the Ogoniland region in the Niger Delta, the implementation of which was based on the recommendations from a 2011 UN Environment report, commissioned by the Nigerian government, on the impact of oil extraction in Ogoniland.
The report found severe and widespread contamination of soil and ground water across Ogoniland, which is severely threatening public health.
The UNDP Administrator further observed that, without putting in place practical measures to achieve sound environmental remediation, all efforts my governments in the country to develop the tourism industry would continue to be futile, because tourists would naturally not like to come to regions where the environment is filthy.
“If you look at African story, without the environment, without nature without conserving it, that tourism will never be achieved,” he concluded.
Also addressing journalists during another side event, Executive Director of UN Environment, Mr. Erik Solheim, sounded it loud and clear that until the desert-prone northern Nigeria is made economically sustainable for residents through restoration of lands degraded by desert encroachment, no meaningful progress would be achieved in ending restiveness in the region.
Solheim also advised on the need to harnessed the huge opportunity in solar energy to ensure adequate and sustainable power to drive small scale businesses in the region that create wealth for the people, thereby reducing occasions that lead to violence.
He shed light on the strong desire of the Assembly to see transformative changes in the quest to restore the environment to support human lives.
Some of the transformative changes that Solheim said the world should expect include the massive use of bicycles and electric cars which produce no destructive emissions.
Another is the total ban of smoking at UN conference areas and hotels, which he observed was achieved in Da Nang City, venue of the 6th GEF Assembly.
Solheim said the change would be achieved under four broad categories of action, namely: tackling the menace of plastic, safety mobility, efficient energy and effective agricultural practices, where chemicals that are injurious to the environment are phased out while adopting organic substitutes.

Burnaby Lyric Opera has cancelled a planned live production in February and March.
The opera company had planned to bring a live, full-length production to the stage at Shadbolt Centre for the Arts from Feb. 26 to March 5, but the current B.C. pandemic situation has put paid to those plans.
The opera company announced on Jan. 21 that it has decided not to proceed with the live shows at this time "due to current circumstances."
"We will not be mounting the two operas but will be planning for future concerts and operas when the time shows that it is safer to do so," an email from the company said.
The performance would have been a double bill featuring Gianni Schicchi and Pagliacci. Gianni Schicchi, a comic one-act opera by Giacomo Puccini, was set to feature baritone Jason Cook as Schicchi, soprano Sodam Lee as Lauretta, and tenor Sergio Augusto as Rinuccio. Pagliacci, a two-act opera by Ruggero Leoncavallo, would have starred Scott Rumble as Canio, soprano Chloe Hurst as Nedda. and baritone Scott Brooks as Tonio.
The performances were intended to continue company's tradition of producing one fully staged, costumed opera each year.
Burnaby Lyric Opera began in the early 1980s and, by 1997, had evolved into a professional intermediate company with a permanent home at Shadbolt Centre for the Arts. The company is a non-profit society with a vision to give emerging professional and semi-professional opera singers in B.C. the chance to sing leading roles in fully staged operas.

Artificial insemination is a popular fertility treatment option for individuals or couples who are struggling to conceive naturally. It involves the introduction of sperm into a woman’s reproductive system, bypassing the need for natural conception. This procedure has helped many people fulfill their dreams of becoming parents. However, before embarking on this journey, it’s important to consider the cost of artificial insemination and what factors contribute to the overall expenses.
The Cost of Artificial Insemination
When it comes to the cost of artificial insemination, several factors come into play. The price can vary depending on the country, clinic, and specific treatment required. On average, the cost of artificial insemination ranges from $300 to $1,000 per cycle. However, keep in mind that additional fees may be involved, such as medications, ultrasounds, and laboratory expenses. It’s essential to discuss these details with your healthcare provider to get a clear understanding of the overall cost.
Factors Affecting the Cost
Several factors contribute to the overall cost of artificial insemination. Let’s take a closer look at each of them:
1. Clinic Location: The geographic location of the clinic can have a significant impact on the cost. Urban areas and popular fertility centers tend to have higher prices compared to rural areas.
2. Treatment Type: There are different types of artificial insemination techniques, such as intrauterine insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF). IVF is generally more expensive due to the complexity and additional procedures involved.
3. Medications: Depending on your specific situation, you may need fertility medications to stimulate ovulation and improve the chances of successful insemination. These medications can add to the overall cost of the treatment.
4. Diagnostic Tests: Before undergoing artificial insemination, you may need to undergo various diagnostic tests, such as blood work, ultrasounds, and semen analysis. These tests help determine the cause of infertility and can be an additional expense.
5. Multiple Cycles: It’s important to remember that artificial insemination may require multiple cycles to achieve a successful pregnancy. Each cycle adds to the overall cost, so it’s crucial to budget accordingly.
Now that we have discussed the factors affecting the cost of artificial insemination, let’s delve into insurance coverage. The coverage for fertility treatments varies by country, state, and insurance provider. Some insurance plans may cover a portion or all of the costs associated with artificial insemination, while others may not cover it at all. It’s crucial to check with your insurance provider to understand what is covered and what isn’t.
If your insurance does not cover artificial insemination, there may be other options available to help with the financial burden. Some clinics offer financing plans or packages that can help make the treatment more affordable. Additionally, there are organizations and grants specifically designed to assist individuals and couples with the costs of fertility treatments.
If the cost of artificial insemination is a significant concern, there are alternative options to consider. Adoption and fostering are viable alternatives to traditional conception, providing an opportunity to create a loving and supportive family. These options can also be emotionally fulfilling for those looking to welcome a child into their lives.
While the cost of artificial insemination can be daunting, it’s important to weigh the financial implications against the potential joy of parenthood. Every individual or couple’s situation is unique, and what works best for one may not be the right choice for another. It’s essential to consult with a healthcare professional, discuss the financial aspects, and make an informed decision that aligns with your goals and resources.
Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1: How successful is artificial insemination?
The success rate of artificial insemination depends on several factors, including the age of the woman, overall health, sperm quality, and the underlying cause of infertility. On average, the success rate for artificial insemination ranges from 10% to 20% per cycle. However, multiple cycles may be required to achieve a successful pregnancy.
Question 2: Is artificial insemination painful?
Artificial insemination itself is relatively painless and usually does not require anesthesia. The procedure involves inserting a thin catheter into the woman’s cervix to deposit the sperm. Some women may experience mild cramping or discomfort during and after the procedure, but it is usually brief and subsides quickly.
Question 3: Are there any risks or side effects associated with artificial insemination?
Artificial insemination is generally a safe procedure with minimal risks. However, like any medical intervention, there are potential side effects to consider. These may include infection, allergic reactions to medications, and a small chance of multiple pregnancies. It’s important to discuss these risks with your healthcare provider and address any concerns you may have.
Artificial insemination can be an effective and accessible fertility treatment option for many individuals and couples. While the cost may seem overwhelming at first, it’s important to explore all avenues, including insurance coverage, financing options, and alternative paths to parenthood. Infertility can be a challenging journey, both emotionally and financially, but with the right support and resources, achieving the dream of starting or expanding a family is possible. Remember, every person’s journey is unique, and it’s essential to find the path that feels right for you.

Telecom giant MTN Ghana has joined the global community to mark Africa Safer Internet Day-2023 with a call on Senior High School students to observe cybersecurity safety measures to ensure their safety online.
Head of Corporate Affairs-MTN Ghana, Angela Adu-Ampofo, interacting with the elective ICT students of Osu Presbyterian Senior High School (Osu PRESEC) in Accra stated that apart from the voice, data and mobile money services it offers. MTN is also passionate about empowering children online.
“MTN wants to ensure that you are not being bullied on the Internet while also equipping you to safely use it. Apart from that, we also want you to be able to use the Internet to work productively and make good use of the available online platforms,” she stated.
Citing an online penetration report by the United Nations (UN) for 2021, she said about 36 percent of Ghanaian kids accessed the Internet or used screen-based devices during that year.
Prince Essandoh, Senior Lead, IT Governance and Compliance at MTN, taking the students through online safety lessons, cautioned them against cyber-bullying and other negative online proclivities.
“The best way of not participating in cyber-bullying is by not responding to unkind remarks that are sent to your DM, by either known or unknown persons. If someone sends you a message and you realise that the remark doesn’t sit well with you, don’t respond to it. Make sure you block any form of cyber-bullying and then tell a trusted adult. You can, tell your teachers, your parents or any of the staff here you trust,” he said while educating the ICT students of Osu PRESEC on how to stay safe online.
He added: “Be careful you don’t click on links in unsolicited emails through which most phishing links are sent. Those unwanted links are designed to lure you into downloading a virus”.
On her part, Senior Manager for Enterprise Security and Governance-MTN Jacqueline Hanson Kotei, also cautioned the students against the habit of self-disclosure, saying: “Be mindful about how you share your personal information with others on the Internet, because you do not know who may be receiving them.
“Some of us have our birthdays and we give the location of our houses. And we have a lot of information online. What happens when we share our personal information online? Some may get shared again by someone else. Let’s be mindful of the things we share,” she reiterated while encouraging students not to hesitate in reporting fraudulent/inappropriate Internet activities to relevant authorities.
Meanwhile, Vincent Esoah – Headmaster of the Osu PRESEC School, has made a passionate appeal to MTN Ghana, government, and all benevolent organisations to come to his school’s aid with computers for ICT teaching and learning.
In a startling revelation, he told the B&FT and other journalists who attended the programme that: “Osu PRESEC is computer ICT elective school with about 308 students, but we have only 33 computers presently. The West Africa Examination Council (WAEC) requires that we sit in only 2 sessions; and so, as I stand here, I am thinking of cutting down the number of pupils who will be doing the ICT”.
He however expressed hope that: “If we get a little support in terms of even used computers, we will be very glad – so that we can have each child having a computer, especially during the West Africa Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). Every year, we rent to write ICT”.
Counting on their support, Esoah said: “For MTN Ghana, I know you have a big heart to support the needy. If you are planning your charitable contributions to society, please remember Osu PRESEC”.
While lauding MTN for taking it upon itself to allow customers and the public at large to use its facilities, the headmaster also expressed gratitude to the telecom giant for making Osu PRESEC a preferred choice to mark the ‘Africa Safer Internet Day’ event that came under the theme ‘Get involved and promote a safer Internet’.


My guess is changing gear position obstructs antennas. Carbon fiber shields radio waves. The 2.4 antennas on the H are right next to the landing gear legs. Perhaps a slight bend in the antenna wires to reposition them would correct the video loss issue. As obtained from the factory, one of the 2.4 antennas is taped to the body. Remove that tape.All Europe has the same problem. We must contact the Yuneec. No upgrade did not solve the problem. At least tell us what it is, and if there is a solution.
