Fermi 2 Nuclear Power Plant, Circulating Water Pipeline
The 144 in. dia. circulating water pipeline at Fermi 2 consists of two intake lines between the reservoir and condenser and two discharge lines between the condenser and two cooling towers. All four pipelines are prestressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) manufactured in the early 1970s. SGH first developed a design basis document and specifications for carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) pipeline repairs, determined failure risk, and prioritized repairs for distressed pipes in the East and West Supply Lines. SGH then provided engineering support for repairs to the East Supply Line.
For the design basis document and specifications, SGH developed repair design criteria, inspection procedures, and repairs for the PCCP. Based on presumed distress, our documents serve as a guideline for DTE Energy to help them anticipate possible repairs, including CFRP pipeline repairs, repairs to joints with missing grout, repairs of leaking joints using inner seal, repairs to the damaged concrete inner core, and repairs to joints between PCCP pipes and adjacent steel piping.
SGH also performed visual and sounding inspections and failure risk analyses of the East and West Supply Lines. We determined the failure risk of the distressed pipes and prioritized pipe repairs. SGH designed all CFRP repairs and repairs to concrete cores. We provided continuous engineering support throughout construction, including quality assurance inspections and laboratory testing of CFRP properties and degree of cure.

Rickea Jackson has been out of No. 20 Tennessee’s lineup since Nov. 13, when she was listed as day-to-day with a lower leg injury.
Jackson has been seen at games with a boot on her foot, and Volunteers head coach Kellie Harper did not offer an update on Jackson’s condition prior to her squad’s loss to Notre Dame on Nov. 29.
“We’re still in the same situation where each and every day is the day we’re going to be evaluating her,” Harper told the Knoxville News-Sentinel. “Each day is different. So, literally, I’ll walk in today and find out what she’s doing today. I know (the boot) was definitely off some.”
The story remained the same at practice on Dec. 1. The continued absence of the fifth-year-guard is a blow to Tennessee, as she is a key piece to the lineup and a projected first-round pick in the 2024 WNBA draft. Last season, she averaged 19.2 points and 6.1 rebounds per game, but she has played just two games this season.
Just Women’s Sports is tracking injuries to key players throughout the NCAA season and, when possible, outlining the timetables for their returns.
Azzi Fudd, UConn
Fudd is out for the remainder of the season with a torn ACL and a torn meniscus in her right knee. She played just two games before injuring her knee in practice. Fudd is the second Huskies player in two years to miss the majority of the season with an ACL tear, following Paige Bueckers’ lost season in 2022-23.
Sa’Myah Smith, LSU
Smith will miss the rest of the season for No. 7 LSU with tears to the ACL, MCL and meniscus in her right knee. Smith’s injury occurred early in the Tigers’ Nov. match with Niagara on Nov. 24. Smith, who appeared in just seven games this season, will be given a redshirt for the remainder of this season and will be able to get this year of eligibility back, per LSU Athletics.
Hannah Stuelke, Iowa
Stuelke arrived at No. 5 Iowa’s game against Florida Gulf Coast on Nov. 25 with her right ankle wrapped after she appeared to slip during the Hawkeyes’ game against Purdue Fort Wayne on Nov. 24. Stuelke has been listed as day-to-day since the injury, and while it is unlikely that she’ll play Saturday against Bowling Green, Iowa head coach Lisa Bluder alluded to a possible return to the lineup for the sophomore forward.
“I don’t think she’ll be back for this weekend. Hopefully for the Iowa State, but that has yet to be determined,” Bluder told Hawkeye Report. “She is doubtful for this week. … I’m not going to go into the exact injury. It’s just not my place to talk about the personal injuries of our players.”
Caroline Ducharme, UConn
The junior guard played in No. 11 UConn’s first four games this season but she has been out since Nov. 19 with neck and back spasms. Ducharme has dealt with concussion issues in past seasons. On Dec. 1, head coach Geno Auriemma could not provide a timeline for her return to the team.
Avery Strickland, Tennessee
Strickland has been sidelined since Nov. 13 as she goes through concussion protocol. Strickland has missed four games so far, the most recent being the Vols’ matchup with Notre Dame on Nov. 29. There is still no timetable for her return.
Sonia Citron, Notre Dame
Citron sustained an injury to her leg in the third quarter of the Irish’s game against Northwestern on Nov. 15. The junior guard needed help to return to the locker room after she was injured.
Notre Dame head coach Niele Ivey had announced that Citron was dealing with a sprained knee and would be out for just a couple of weeks. But on Nov. 28, Ivey said Citron would need a few more weeks of recovery before she could return to the court.
Jasmine Powell, Tennessee
Powell also did not play in the Vols’ game against Troy. She was seen with a brace on her right arm, as reported by the Knoxville News Sentinel. Tennessee head coach Kellie Harper did not provide a timeline for the senior point guard’s return.

Marion Manola [Mina Stevens, Mrs. Henry S. Mould] (1866-1914)
Vivacious, charming, and slight, Marion Manola began her life on the stage in Cleveland, first at the Rockwell School, and later on the recital stage. After marrying Henry S. Mould, the couple performed in local productions of Gilbert & Sullivan comic operas until Mould, to avoid debt proceedings, skipped town. Mina followed, and they fled to Europe--rumor suggested to Paris so that Marion could refine her vocal artistry under Mathilde Marchesi. They next surfaced on the London music hall stage sporting new names--hers Marion Manola; his Carl Irving. Manola's reputation was established in London playing the lead in Reginald DeKoven's unexpected hit "Maid Marion" ("Robin Hood" in the U.S.). The couple returned to America, joined the Casino Opera Company in which Marion Manola performed in "Erminie". Irving's talent was insufficient to establish him as a singing comedian. Marion Manola, however, climbed the ladder of accomplishment, securing better parts,eventually becoming prima donna in the McCaull Comic Opera troupe. She enjoyed a string of hits as a comic opera diva--"Bocacio," "Tar and Tartar," "Black Hussar," "The Mikado," and "The Beggar Student."
While playing the "May Queen" for McCaull, Marion's flirtatious behavior with singer Hubert Wilkie prompted the jealous husband to break with her in 1889. They divorced in 1891. During the 1890s Manola's life became bizarrely complicated. She toured for a period with DeWolf Hopper's company in "Castles in the Air," abducted her daughter with Mould and shipped her to Europe for education, married actor Jack Mason and became entangled in his financial problems when attempting to take over the Tremont Theatre. During the early 1890s Manola and Mason toured America in "Friend Fritz" when not dodging process servers. She was hospitalized in 1893-94 for a nervous breakdown, although rumor suggested she had become addicted to opium. In the mid-1890s she attempted to alter her vocal fact, abandoning high soprano parts for mezzo roles such as "Falka." In 1898 her attempt to tour as a star failed and her daughter ran away, claiming that Mason abused her. This provoked a split between Manola and Mason, and divorce in 1899. Manola's career degenerated to tours through the vaudeville circuits singing light classics and comic songs or appearances in suggestive productions such as 1903's "The Tinted Venus" at the Point of Pines playhouse in Boston. During the run of this production she married accountant George Gates, a man involved in the financing of early motion picture companies. Manola died in 1914 from complications during an operation to remove gall stones. She was 48 years old at time of death.

Punjab-origin man jailed for lying about having Covid-19, spitting at police in UK
Karan Singh, 23, pleaded guilty at the Croydon Crown court to three counts of assault on an emergency worker, use of threatening, abusive, insulting words, behaviour to cause harassment, alarm, distress and possession of a class B drugUpdated: Apr 29, 2020 00:31 IST
An Indian-origin London-based man has been jailed for eight months after he spat at police custody staff after lying about having Covid-19 because he was “angry”, Scotland Yard said on Tuesday.
Karan Singh, 23, pleaded guilty at the Croydon Crown court to three counts of assault on an emergency worker, use of threatening, abusive, insulting words, behaviour to cause harassment, alarm, distress and possession of a class B drug (cannabis).
He was sentenced immediately to four months’ imprisonment. He was also sentenced to an additional four months’ jail, to run consecutively, for being in breach of a suspended sentence – making his total sentence eight months.
The police said on March 14, officers were on patrol when they spotted Singh sitting in a car in a driveway in Croydon. Officers recognised Singh as being disqualified from driving and so they approached the car and spoke to him.
Singh denied he was disqualified from driving and said he had been given his licence back. As officers were speaking to Singh, they noticed a strong smell of cannabis coming from him and the vehicle. Officers asked him about the smell and he admitted to smoking cannabis.
As one of the officers began explaining the grounds for a search under the Misuse of Drugs Act, Singh attempted to start the engine of the vehicle and make off from police. The vehicle stalled and officers were able to detain him.
A snap bag of cannabis was found and Singh admitted to having cannabis for personal use. Singh was arrested and when he was taken to a south London police station, he was said to have been verbally abusive to the interviewing officers. Following the interview, Singh became aggressive and said he would not go back to his cell. He had to be physically taken back by a custody sergeant and PC, with a DC and designated detention officer (DDO) also stepping in to support their colleagues.
Once at the cell door, Singh continued to struggle with the officers. The officers managed to get him into the cell and when the door was partially closed, Singh spat directly into the custody sergeant’s face. Some of the spit also hit the DDO’s lip and the DC’s cheek.
Singh then tried to prevent officers from closing the cell door, during which he told the custody sergeant that he had coronavirus. He was further arrested on suspicion of assaulting an emergency worker.
Following the incident, he was interviewed behind his cell door for safety reasons. He admitted to spitting at the officers stating he did it because he had been waiting for hours and he “got stressed out”.
Superintendent Dan Knowles said: “It is never acceptable to spit at an emergency worker, whether it is during these unprecedented times or not. Singh carrying out this vile act and then lying about having coronavirus was a deplorable thing to do and it caused a great deal of distress for the officers and staff who were just trying to do their job and keep London safe.”

There's no better way of bringing the wonders of nature into your home than with house plants. Their benefits are numerous. Along with adding life and color to a room, they've been found to reduce stress, boost productivity, and improve indoor air quality.
Keeping house plants isn't as easy as other household items like say, a painting or a sculpture; however, the fact remains that plants are living things and you'll have to pay special attention to keep them that way.
Many make the mistake of thinking that regular watering is all there is to it. If only. Plants require correct lighting conditions, specific watering regimen, correct food. They also need to be repotted from time to time.
Where do you begin? Well, that's easy. Begin with our short guide just ahead.
It's all about lighting
First things first. Positioning. Where you put your plant depends a lot on its light requirements. Plants need light to process food through photosynthesis, which occurs in sunlight. You'll have to research how much light your particular species of plant needs. The amount of light a plant needs falls into three groups:
- Direct sunlight: the light hits the plant directly.
- Indirect sunlight: the light hits the plant through reflection off other objects. In a bright room a little away from the window is perfect.
- Diffused light: Light reaches the plant after being filtered through a screen or sheer curtain.
Water is key
The most common mistake people new to gardening make is to kill plants through overwatering. We've all been there. This is because different plants require different levels of soil moisture. Some thrive if their soil is kept constantly moist while others prefer their soil to dry out between waterings. Here are some important watering tips:
- Use your fingers to feel the soil and work out how moist it is.
- Invest in a watering can so you can get right in there, past the leaves.
- When watering, water thoroughly, so that water drains through the hole in the bottom of the pot.
- Use lukewarm or warm water as cold can shock the roots.
- Use water in a spray bottle to spritz the leaves and up the humidity.
- If your pot has no holes in the bottom, you need to pot your plant in a smaller pot with holes in the bottom to allow drainage. You can still put your new pot within the old pot.
Food, glorious food
Be careful with plant food, as a one-size-fits-all approach is not advised. Plants have individual nutrition needs and new gardeners should be careful not to overfeed.
- Water-soluble: a liquid mixed with water and poured on the plant.
- Spikes: a solid food pushed directly into the soil that releases nutrients slowly.
- Granular: sprinkled around the base of the plant and watered in.
When to repot?
Beginners often overlook this, but your plant will eventually outgrow its pot! You'll know it's time when it's top-heavy or its roots are growing out of the drainage hole. Here are some tips:
- Use a pot with drainage holes.
- A small net over the drainage hole can help prevent dirt from leaking out between waterings.
- Always use potting soil rather than soil from your garden.
- Dampen the potting soil before placing it around your plant.
- Add some soil to the bottom of the pot and pat it down. Remove the plant from its old container carefully, shaking soil loose from around the roots so they will spread out easily in the new soil. Place the plant in the container and fill to the top with potting soil, tamping down firmly around the edges; water thoroughly.
- If you see brown leaves at the bottom of the plant after transplanting, just pinch them off.
There you have it. We hope this guide helps you and your indoor garden thrive. Long live your plants!

An 18th-Century Time Warp on the Costa Verde
As the gold rush of the 18th century died down, so did Parati’s importance as the flourishing port for galleons carrying precious cargo from inland Minas Gerais to Portugal’s royal court: The town went into hibernation, encapsulating its colonial heyday until its eventual rediscovery in the 1950s. Located on the coast midway between Rio and Sao Paulo, its precious time-warped beauty is one of the few things on which the cariocas and paulistas (Sao Paulo residents) agree.
Visitors and locals navigate the waterfront cobblestone streets (closed to traffic) by foot or by bicycle, while small family-run shops confirm the suspicion that this is a town where the locals still thrive on fishing and fanning. There’s no action and no beach to speak of, but you can still admire the fine houses and the few elaborate churches that wealthy merchants built for themselves (along with two churches exclusively for their slaves and servants). One of the first inns to jump on the tourist bandwagon is still the town’s most charming: Pousada Pardieiro’s rustic simplicity is offset by a stylish selection of artwork, objects, and such discerning touches as chilled Champagne in your minibar and a pool for further refreshment. Parati’s location on the lush, jungle-clad Costa Verde makes it the perfect jumping-off place for boat excursions to any of the 365 outlying islands and the deserted beach idylls they promise.

The Marching Band is a competitive ensemble that performs at all home football games, as well as field tournaments throughout Southern California in the Western Band Association (WBA) and also the Southern California Band and Orchestra Association (SCSBOA).
Being in the Marching Band is not mandatory, but it is highly recommended. This is a great way to develop your musicianship while having tons of fun with 65 of your closest friends!
Marching Band rehearsals are usually 3 days per week after school during the fall. Membership in the Marching Band is open to anyone who is already enrolled in either Concert Band or Wind Ensemble. The beginning of the season starts with a camp in August that happens every summer two weeks before the school year begins. This is an important time for the band to begin learning our fall show while establishing fundamentals and making friends.
There are some additional expenses associated with this activity and while the boosters work to plan fundraisers to help families offset these costs, the responsibility of funding this program rests with the band program at large. In order to ensure that all expenses related to the production of the Fall Field Show are met, it is necessary to determine, in advance, if the support is in place to move forward. So we ask parents to complete a Marching Band Financial Commitment Form and place it, along with their donation, in the black payment lockbox located in the Band Room.

Nigeria’s lawmaking body, the National Assembly, and the Presidency have agreed to work together in implementing the Social Investment Programme.
This decision was made at a meeting between the leadership of the two federal lawmaking chambers and the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Farouk, with top officials of the ministry.
Leadership of the NASS faulted the SIP initiative, observing that “some of the conditions or guidelines” the ministry set to reach out to the poorest of the poor actually excluded them from the government palliative.
Nigeria had, through the ministry, begun the distribution of cash to poor citizens, and this raised dust based on the exclusion of some areas where it assumed has no poor citizens.
Chairman of the NASS and Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, who led the legislative team to the meeting, said an effective implementation of the programme would help those who were supposed to be beneficiaries directly benefit from the programme as they were not difficult to identify.
He said, “We feel that we need to work together with you to ensure efficiency, so that those who are supposed to benefit will benefit directly.
“Some conditions are set, that those who will benefit will have to go online, through the internet or must have Bank Verification Number and the rest of it. I want to tell you that the majority of those who are supposed to benefit have no access to power and internet. They have no bank account, so no BVN. In fact, many of them don’t even have phones, and these are the poorest of the poor. Yet some of the conditions or guidelines which you set inadvertently leave them out.”
Lawan stressed that the partnership would help the government achieve more in reaching those who are in serious distress.
“We believe that when we work together, the executive side of government and the National Assembly as representatives of the people, we will be able to reach many more of these people who are in serious distress, even before the coronavirus outbreak.
“Now with coronavirus, they need our attention more than ever. The time has come for us review the ways and manner we use to deliver the SIP to Nigerians. So we need to put on our thinking cap and work out some strategies on how to identify the poorest persons in Nigeria. I think we have not been able to reach far out there to get them properly captured,” he added.
Lending his voice, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, said, “Your job right now is probably the most important as we speak, because you are saddled with the responsibility of alleviating poverty or the hardship, due to no fault of anyone, being thrust upon Nigerians.”
He advised the minister to consider some tough questions based on how comprehensive the distribution list is, the set parameters, the geographical spread in helping her ministry to make laudable achievement at this particular time.
Responding, Farouk expressed happiness to partner with the legislature for legal support “because it is the only way to go.”

Www.digitalplayspace.com - Digital Children’s Books. Cartoon is quickly becoming an extremely popular career choice for those thinking about combining their love for art with their love for computing. With movies such as Monsters Inc. and Cars holding the interest of children and adults alike, it's not surprising that animation technicians have become popular after. This can be connected to Digital Children’s Books.
This text talks with regard to the big difference of cartoon and anime, plus the definition of each in numerous groups. Anime, primarily from Japan, exhibits alone to generally be quite a bit deeper and very well thought-out in plot and character enhancement than people of cartoons.
A cartoon is defined as a visual shift in a scene with respect to time. The visual shift in the spectacle is not only linked to the change in the position of this thing, but additionally having its shape, color, transparency, texture and structure. An important point about cartoon is that it usually suggests the hand attracted or artificially drawn sequence of images, which contrasts to the pictures where actors performances with real life scenes are listed.See Also: Pet Store Where You Can Play With Puppies
Should you ended up to ask many individuals what their favored productions were without a doubt each would've their own individual individual lists. You'll be amazed at the range of animated types that will be included. So if who at any time mentioned that cartoons are for youths? They can be a thing that touches the hearts of your younger and aged for possibly gender.
Associated to Digital Children’s Books, 3D Cartoon animation has come up as amongst quite possibly the most endorsed systems in today's personal computer age. It is a type of graphic imaging which has taken around 2nd or scale design puppets also as drawings which were generally often known as stop motion animation. Over the several years, there's been an ever raising need for cartoon videos too given that the usage of 3D cartoon animation from the media for endorsement of brand name names that has initiated greater and more advanced imaging software's available in the market.
Animation may be employed to inform, instruct, promote and express emotions equally as live activity can employing the very same techniques; such as for instance the employment of colour, picture language and noise.

The first public poll in Oregon’s gubernatorial race in six months is certainly eye-catching. It shows Gov. Kate Brown and Republican challenger Knute Buehler tied at 45 percent apiece.
What’s not clear is just how accurate the survey is, or the motivations of the Florida-based firm that is behind it, Gravis Marketing.
The July 16-17 survey of 770 likely voters also found voters almost evenly divided over a November ballot measure that would overturn Oregon's sanctuary law, which limits state and local law enforcement cooperation with federal immigration authorities. However, more than 20 percent of voters say they are undecided about the initiative, which was qualified for the ballot last week.
In the governor’s race, Brown has been seen as the strong front-runner by several political forecasting groups, at least in part because Democrats hold all but one statewide elected office in Oregon. But there’s been little in the way of hard data that’s been made public about the state of the race.
The last public poll, conducted in January for Oregon Public Broadcasting by DHM Research of Portland, found Brown with a 17-point lead — 46 percent to 29 percent — over Buehler.
John Horvick, vice president and political director for DHM, said that private data he’s seen shows that the race has tightened considerably.
The Gravis poll “is directionally correct, I think,” said Horvick, adding that he still believes Brown has a small cushion.
Related: Buehler's Platform Builds On Health Care Reform
Horvick said it would make sense that the race would tighten as Buehler, a state representative from Bend, becomes more well-known. The Republican candidate also spent more than a million dollars in advertising in the primary, most of it including criticism of Brown. The governor had little primary opposition and instead continued to save her money for the general election.
The Gravis poll did raise some methodological questions. The firm says it used “an online panel of cellphone users and interactive voice responses.” The latter phrase means that many respondents were questioned by an automated voice and used touch-tone buttons to list their choices. Some polling experts raise doubts about the accuracy of those kinds of polls.
In addition, Horvick noted that the poll doesn’t draw from lists of registered voters. Instead, voters are asked to self-identify, which Horvick said makes them more likely to describe themselves as an independent.
As a result, 44 percent of the sample identified themselves as an independent. In reality, a much higher share of the electorate will be made up of voters registered as Republican or Democrat. And Horvick said there’s no way to know if Gravis got the right mix of Democratic and Republican voters.
Gravis founder Douglas Kaplan couldn’t be reached for comment Monday.
His firm has received a C+ rating from FiveThirtyEight.Com, a well-known politics website that regularly rates pollsters.

The firm has had some notable failures since it started in 2010. The Washington Post reported that in 2016, Gravis said a primary challenger to a Republican congressman in Maryland was leading by 29 points. Months later, that challenger lost by 76 points.
In 2014, the firm said Texas Sen. John Cornyn was ahead of his primary challenger by 15 points. But Cornyn ended up winning by 40 points.
Gravis said in the polling memo it released this weekend that it paid for the Oregon gubernatorial poll on its own. It said the poll has a margin of error of 3.5 percentage points.
Buehler’s spokeswoman, Monica Wroblewski, alerted at least one journalist by email to the poll. But she told OPB that the campaign wouldn’t have any comment on the survey.
Brown’s campaign spokesman, Christian Gaston, questioned Gravis’ credibility. He declined to comment on what his campaign’s own polls show about the state of the race.

WHEN POLICE threaten to arrest agents of Carroll County's most powerful developer for trespass, it's clear the issue is bigger than details of building plans. At Roberts Field subdivision in Hampstead, there's a long list of community disputes with developer Martin K. P. Hill, from ownership to housing density to open space.
The conflict came to a head this week when workers for the developer were blocked from constructing a storm-water basin on land owned by the Fields Homeowners' Association.
Mr. Hill claimed he had easements for the pond in gaining a state storm-water permit two years ago. Only after the police confrontation did the state Department of the Environment belatedly change its permit to require proof of the easement. The storm-water basin is needed to build 96 more condominiums in Roberts Field, where Mr. Hill has built 600 homes.
The trespassing showdown would not have occurred had the developer enjoyed better relations with the town of Hampstead and with buyers of his housing. Instead, there has been tension and disagreement at almost every turn.
Hampstead claims that the developer owes the town 16 acres of unencumbered open space, under the code for subdivisions, which he has not provided. The municipality also claims he exceeded the population densities allowed in his building plan for the subdivision (by constructing three-bedroom units instead the permitted two-bedroom units). And the town is challenging Carroll County for issuing a grading permit to Mr. Hill for the project, over the objections of Hampstead.
Meantime, the homeowners' association is negotiating a transfer the town of storm-water control properties deeded to it by the developer, which are costly to maintain. There is discontent that storm-water facilities in Roberts Field were claimed by the developer as "open-space amenities."
Home owners are worried about the long-term environmental effects and legal responsibilities for the proposed storm-water basin. Property owners downstream on Piney Run are concerned about erosion and stream-widening they link to the Roberts Field development.
With so many such actual and potential problems, the community would benefit from Mr. Hill's graceful withdrawal from the Field.

Police have launched an investigation into claims staff at a morgue in the 1990s ‘had sex with dead bodies’.
The allegations have been made against council-owned Edinburgh City Mortuary.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “We are aware of a report. Enquiries are ongoing and at an early stage.”
An Edinburgh City Council spokesperson told STV News that the local authority was aware of the police report.
They added: “We’ll assist them fully with their enquiries.”
According to The Sun, the allegations were reported in light of the court case of hospital electrician David Fuller.
Last week, the 67-year-old admitted murdering then sexually assaulting two women decades before carrying out dozens of sex attacks on corpses in mortuaries over a period of 12 years.
He filmed himself carrying out the attacks at mortuaries inside the now closed Kent and Sussex Hospital and the Tunbridge Wells Hospital, in Pembury, where he worked in electrical maintenance roles since 1989.
An inquiry has been launched in England to examine how Fuller went undetected.
Fuller pleaded guilty on November 4 to murdering Wendy Knell, 25, and Caroline Pierce, 20, in two separate attacks in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, in 1987.
Identified victims from his mortuary attacks included three children under the age of 18 and others older than 85 between 2008 and November 2020.

PBI-Guatemala expresses concern for the security of food and water defender Abelino Mejía
On May 28, the Peace Brigades International-Guatemala Project posted on its Facebook page that Abelino Salvador Mejía Cancino, a member of the Council of Communities of Retalhuleu (CCR), suffered an attempted raid on his home by armed men wearing ski masks on the night of Monday May 25.
Then on Wednesday May 27, armed men wearing balaclavas surrounded his home and watched him and his family.
PBI-Guatemala began accompanying Abelino Mejía earlier this month, as part of the CCR, as a result of his work in defence of health, access to water and food sovereignty for local communities given the impacts caused by sugar mills in the territory.
Abelino lives in the community of Olga Marina Cuchuapán (the town of Champerico) in the department of Retalhuleu. Champerico is a port city situated on the Pacific Ocean about 225 kilometres south-west of Guatemala City.
REDSAG (the National Network for the Defence of Food Sovereignty) notes that Abelino “has championed and accompanied the struggles for the liberation of the kidnapped rivers on the South Coast by agribusiness, especially the sugarcane industry, in addition to demanding the rights to water and food of the communities affected by agribusiness that contaminates and destroys our natural assets.”
Earlier this month, Prensa Libre reported that the Ixquiyá River is the only source of water for several villages in Retalhuleu and Champerico.
Concerns have been expressed that the waterflow in the Ixquiyá River has diminished because monoculture companies have built dams to irrigate their crops.
Broader context provided by Canadian university professor
University of Regina Professor Simon Granovsky-Larsen has written: “The world is searching for cleaner sources of energy. [That has] made growth industries out of alternative energies such as hydroelectricity and biofuel, which counts sugarcane and African palm among its top sources.”
“In Guatemala, this growth has shaken up patterns of land and water usage. Guatemala is the world’s fourth largest exporter of sugar, it follows only Indonesia and Malaysia for palm oil exports and the country is the largest Central American exporter of electricity.”
“Land dedicated to sugarcane in Guatemala grew by 46 per cent between 2001 and 2012, with expansion concentrated along the Pacific coast.”
“Hydro and biofuel are intimately connected through more than the use of the same rivers. Sugarcane producers also generate electricity onsite by burning the crop’s biomass pulp, and many of the small hydroelectric dams in the Pacific region are financed by sugar companies.”
“Many local residents also take issue with the dams due to water usage, land access and pollution.”
“Sugarcane requires three times more water than corn, the primary subsistence crop grown by Guatemalan campesinos. African palm, rubber and banana plantations under expansion in the Pacific region have also diverted community water to satisfy irrigation needs.”
“Due to a shortage of water, plantations have begun ‘stealing’ water, in the words of people from surrounding communities: diverting river routes, mechanically extracting river water and drilling deep wells.”
“Violence against those engaged in water battles on the Pacific coast has not been as extreme as that seen around Canadian mines, but the movement has experienced repression.”
PBI-Canada joins with PBI-Guatemala in expressing concern about the security situation for Abelino Mejía.


Yesterday in Times Square, 358 people set a world record for "Most People Twerking Simultaneously." The highlight was a twerker named Joan Wind . . . who's 73 years old. Joan wasn't actually PLANNING to twerk yesterday. She was doing some shopping at Macy's when she saw the crowd. She reminds me of Blanche Devereaux from the Golden Girls, lol.

Already have date of launch official for the iPhone 7, one of those mobile more expected for the year. Will come to rival with the mobile more important of this year 2016 that have arrived with the system operating Android. However, is for see if in truth the iPhone 7 can be rival of these smartphones. For now, it seems that one of the keys will be the camera but, really iPhone 7 can plant facing the best Android of 2017
The camera will be an improvement
In the invitation sent by Apple to them media is can see it part superior of the logo of Apple, simulated with lights in bokeh, what us leads to think that the iPhone 7 will be a mobile that will highlight especially by your camera. Specifically, refers to a dual camera for the iPhone 7 Plus, and in general an improved module for the camera in the two versions of the mobile. With said module probably we would find with ones photosensors more large, capable of capture more light and, therefore, of get some photographs of a quality upper.
In fact, dual camera would not be a special novelty on the market, since we already have several smartphones that have come to market with a dual camera, as it is the case of Huawei P9, with that certification of Leica camera. In the same line we should Honor 8, and other smartphones that are coming, as the Xiaomi Mi Note 2, for example.
They do not have that dual camera mobile as the Samsung Galaxy S7 or Samsung Galaxy Note 7. However, the great Chamber of these mobile makes it really complicated that 7 iPhone to compete with these. Regarded as the best mobile camera in the market, we’ll see if Apple is able to respond to this and the other large mobile cameras in the market. Did in the past, and does not seem that that is going to change much. We will see.
Something that Yes we will see in the iPhone 7 new will be more memory RAM. Specifically, is speaking already of a memory RAM of 3 GB. Nor is anything new on the market. In fact, it is something that demanded long for the Apple mobile. A memory of 3 GB of RAM in the iPhone, with the performance of iOS, will be already something quite interesting, but even so will continue to being lower to the capacity of the memory RAM of many smartphones of the market, that already are in them 4 GB. Refers to any this year reaching the 8 GB, and already at the end of this year we will see the 6 GB to become standard. One does not wait the 7, the most expensive iPhone, having half of RAM memory.
Almost the same design
There will be an especially remarkable renewal in the design of the smartphone. Is amended the form of the antennas, happen to be a mobile something more fine, and perhaps more light, but us will find with the same mobile that has identified to them iPhone from makes years. Will check in missing a renewal of the design of the mobile, and more when the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 already is has released in a unique version with screen curve. We found with a design beautiful in the mobile of Samsung, and with an iPhone that continues being equal that the of makes some years…
The shortcomings of iOS
Finally, should talk about some shortcomings with that will come the mobile as a mobile Apple. The company has had a very concrete policy with iOS, and that has continued with their devices. For example, you have seen with the amount of memory with which has the mobile. Very little for what is a smartphone of high level. Even though pass to being of 32 GB the version more basic, is little. It worse is that not is can expand by means of microSD, by what those photos of high quality with which will have, will have that store is in the memory internal, or in the cloud, which also costs more money. For me, is an of the shortcomings more important of the iPhone. And not seems that a new go to be the compatibility with the cards microSD, or much less.
The article can be the iPhone 7 a rival for the Android of the moment? is published at AndroidAyuda.


Maybe the intro above is a little hyperbolic (only a little!), but it’s hard not to get all NME when reading the liner notes to Gyrate Plus, a rerelease featuring the original tracks backed by some choice singles and EPs. Testimonials from B-52’s sing/speaker Fred Schneider, Gang of Four drummer Hugo Burnham and R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe in the liner notes make the case for Gyrate’s legacy before the disc even plays. Schneider and Burnham talk up the group’s live show, while Stipe compares the album to Wire’s 154 and Gang of Four’s entertainment!, calling it part of a “library that stands as shockingly modern and unparalleled these many years later.”
Hype is empty without quality tunes to back it up, though. Fortunately, Gyrate Plus meets expectations. On these early recordings, the band still sounds pretty harsh, especially compared to their colder, distant, still fun follow-up Chomp, but underneath Randy Bewley’s wall-o’-noise guitars and Vanessa Briscoe Hay’s occasionally shredding vocals exist a fine, funky place. Maybe it starts with drummer Curtis Crowe – dude locks into a nervous yet steady beat and keeps it there on tracks like “Dub” and “
Despite drawing from several different sessions, Gyrate Plus flows well. “Cool” and “Dub,” from their first seven-inch released in 1979, opens the album, segueing into Gyrate perfectly. From there, it’s more grooves and spacey imagery – Hay often creates moods instead of stories. Deciphering the tone of the songs usually hinges on a single lyric. But it’s all alluring; as experimental as the band gets, there’s still an underlying pop element anchoring the songs. An alternate recording of the track “Danger,” helpfully labeled “Danger!!”, follows, and it’s a lot more dub-heavy. An unreleased demo of a song called “Functionality” finishes off the album. Sonically, it’s a palate cleanser compared to “Danger!!” in that the quality is grainer yet the music is more straightforward and driving. It’s not quite on par with the rest of the collection, which is probably why it never found a home until now, but it’s still a worthwhile curio. At 16 tracks and 57 minutes, Gyrate Plus is an important document for all punk fans to check out. Like Stipe writes in the liner notes, it’s still relevant in the new millennium.

In addition to the similar games listed above, which have been linked to this game specifically in the database, you may find games with a similar theme to Blazing Beaks in the following lists:
Play is more fun when it’s shared. This is as true about video games as it is when building a massive sandcastle on the beach or playing hopscotch in the playground. Finding brilliant team games is a great way to involve more people in the fun and share the experience together as a family. More experienced players naturally help novices contribute to the team.
Along with teamwork, the games I’ve selected here use the fact that players are all sitting next to each other.
These are games where players take on different roles in order to complete unusual tasks. The fun is often as much about the conversations (and arguments) that happen in the room as what’s happening on the screen.
Shooting games are usually a challenge of targeting your enemy accurately while they are moving around. This is complex because of the quick reflexes as well as using two sticks to navigate the 3D environments you are playing in.
Twin Stick Shooters, take this mechanic and simplify it. You view the play from above and use one stick to control movement and the other to control the direction of your bullets. This simple change (harking back to the days of Asteroids) makes the play simpler and more direct while also offering a big challenge for players.
Online games are great because you have a world of opponents to take on and defeat (or be defeated by). But beyond the competitive element of these games are often a strong sense of community and camaraderie.
We’re supporting the Every Mind Matters
campaign from NHS and bringing you some games that help you connect with friends and family while you look after your mental health.
Players enjoy making new connections in these games, as well as connecting with wider family and friends. Listen to the chatter while children play these games, and you hear as much talk about homework, television, YouTube or what's happening in the world as much as how to win the next race in Mario Kart.
Surviving in games is often a key element. Some games, however, make it the main focus. With minimal resources and little light can you make it through to the morning? Can you prepare a shelter as the daylight dwindles in time for you to cope with the lurking creatures of the dark?
Whether this is as simple as closing the door to keep the zombies out in Minecraft
or as complex as crafting food, clothing and medicine to cope with the freezing blackness of The Long Dark
, these games are exhilarating as they pose a strategic puzzle with personal consequences.
Many of these games offer an open world in which to survive, which opens up more ways of preparing for and then making it through the night time. This, of course, leads to another day where you need to spend time and resources wisely while exploring your surroundings.
Growing up playing video games creates a strong sentimental connection to the sounds, sights and feeling those experiences gave you. Returning to these games in adulthood is a un diversion, but often the experience doesn't live up to the memory.
The games in this list have been recreated (sometimes officially and sometimes unofficially) by developers who love and respect the original while also wanting to update it for modern technology and players.
Raucous, unbounded, exuberant, all-age competitive fun is something video games are known for. Find the right games for your family and you can create important and healthy ways to let off steam, excel and persevere as you sit next to each other on the sofa. These games can play a big part in raising children to be magnanimous in victory and generous in defeat. Kids love competing online, but the games here focus on battling in the same room. Played with multiple controllers and a shared screen, they offer challenges that require real skill and give everyone a chance to rise to the top of the family pile.

The project will be aimed at better treatments for river blindness
NEW YORK – New York Blood Center’s Sara Lustigman, PhD, will be a collaborator in a project to develop new treatments for onchocerciasis, also known as river blindness, a devastating parasitic infection common in sub-Saharan Africa and in few foci of Central and South America. River blindness is classified as a neglected tropical disease by the World Health Organization (WHO) and is targeted for elimination by 2030.
The research project entitled “Integrative approach for accelerating filarial worm drug discovery to treat river blindness” has received a grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) totaling more than $2 million. The long-term goal of this project is to develop new drug candidates that will allow us to ultimately eliminate this disease that affects millions of the world’s most vulnerable populations in mostly poor, tropical or sub-tropical developing countries.
Sara Lustigman is Head of the Laboratory of Molecular Parasitology at the New York Blood Center (NYBC) and a member of the Lindsley F. Kimball Research Institute (LFKRI). The Lindsley F. Kimball Research Institute is the research branch of the New York Blood Center, known for efforts that have paved the way for new blood-related products, techniques and therapies and has resulted in numerous landmark patents and licenses.
“This grant provides us with the opportunity to develop novel therapeutic macrofilaricidal drugs that kill directly the adult worms and thus expand treatment options that could reduce the burden of Onchocerca volvulus infections,” said Sara Lustigman. “I am excited to build on my research and work alongside my talented colleagues at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Drs. Makedonka Mitreva and James W. Janetka.”
River blindness has affected millions of people, causing about 270,000 people to become blind and 1.2 million people to become visually impaired. River blindness is spread by blackflies that are common near fast-moving rivers. The current treatments for river blindness only prevent transmission of the disease and cannot eliminate an already established infection, making new and complementary treatments for the disease essential.
Sara Lustigman has been with the New York Blood Center and Lindsley F. Kimball Research Institute for over thirty years. She has spent years studying the biology and host-parasite interactions of Onchocerca volvulus, the parasite that causes river blindness. This has allowed the identification of key pathways and molecules that are essential for parasite development, propagation and survival. This information can be used to identify new therapies for river blindness and will be used as one of the bases for this project.

Senior Correspondent, bdnews24.com
Published: 2017-03-02 14:14:20 BdST
A two-hour protest was held from 10am on Thursday at Dhaka’s Engineers Institute Premises. Several hundred BNP activists participated in the protest, holding placards protesting the gas price hike.
“We protest this decision that will hurt the people,” BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi told bdnews24.com. “BNP activists conducted peaceful demonstrations in various districts including Chittagong, Rajshahi, Bogra and Mymensingh.”
The demonstration ended around 12pm with a speech by the party’s Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir.
Police and other law enforcement officers had been deployed to monitor the protest at Ramna Park, Suhrawardy Udyan and other protest areas.
On Feb 23 the Bangladesh Emergency Regulatory Commission (BERC) announced a two-tier hike in the price of gas. The first hike came into effect on Wednesday.
According to the BERC announcement, residents will have to pay Tk 750 a month for one stove and Tk 800 a month for two stoves starting from March. The previous prices were Tk 600 a month for one stove and Tk 650 a month for two stoves.
Though the BERC announced the second price hike would take effect on Jun 1 and raise the price of gas for one stove to Tk 900 a month and the cost of two stoves to Tk 950 a month, a court order has stayed the decision.
The CPB and the Democratic Left Alliance previously protested the price hike with a half-day demonstration last Tuesday.

The vet just sent two beautiful videos, or Panna eating and drinking enthusiastically!!
The vet also says that the top half of the thigh muscle and tissue are all still fine. This probably means the gangrene had not spread upwards. Luckily!!
She has she will monitor Panna for another 3 days to see his progress, especially his temperature and appetite.
Szetoo also received the same videos and he and his wife are overjoyed to see Panna eating and drinking so enthusiastically. Before the surgery, Panna was very subdued.
This reminds me of Jenny, a rescued dog we helped way back. Jenny needed a leg amputated and the senior vet told us animals don’t care about appearances, unlike humans. When there is pain, they just want that pain to go away. That’s all. True enough, after the leg was amputated, Jenny ate voraciously and before you know it, she was running around the clinic so happily…on three legs!
Szetoo is now looking at all kinds of wheels that is available on the market and also on youtube. He’s preparing for Panna’s homecoming where he starts a new chapter in his life.
Panna will face certain challenges, of course, but he will get through with lots of love and support from his family!
More updates tomorrow when Szetoo visits Panna.
We thank the vet very much for her dedication and commitment and for staying until so late to watch over Panna!

Incredible, jaw dropping experience
The robots were very intricate and well detailed, the dance choreography was rehearshed superbly. I enjoyed myself very much!
No words to explain...
It is a must see... however once seen, I would never go back. Very outrageous and over the top. "Robots" (if you can call them that" are outdated. Possibly from the 1990s-80s. Think they should go to Disneyland and see how robotics is done.
Dancing and the show is surreal. It is a great experience. But only to be experienced once.
Lots of fun if you turn your mind off.
Very touristy but very much worth it!
It was a fun and entertaining show. I brought my cousin who lives in Japan but has never been to it before and he had a great time.
Very loud noises and lots of lights so be prepared! As it's very touristy, try to eat/drink beforehand.
Although this was a fun experience, I would say if you were running low on time, don't try to fit this in your schedule. It was worth going to for me, but not a "must see".
Robot restaurant Shinjuku
Fun night with my family of 4, including my 11 and 17 year old sons. Highly recommend it for a night out in Tokyo .
quite a uniq experience. Show was entertaining.
A unique experience
A very unique show. I recommend it to others. Just watch the show and get food somewhere else.
Like nothing else!
A loud, colourful, exciting performance that my kids enjoyed. Not exactly as we expected, but still a lot of fun.
Well i must say that it was a completely different experience.... Not what i was expecting. Nonetheless I had a blast and don't regret checking it out. It's a very "tourist" show because Japanese People don't actually go there. So don't go & tell yourself I'm doing Japanese activities cause you're not haha. I promise you you won't see another show like that in your life so might as well go !
Robot restaurant was a unique experience and haf lovely staff members. I believe this would be fun for kids. When we arrived we waited in a lounge room where there was a live band playing which was lovely and available drinks for purchase .. we were then moved to the main room for the show to begin.. lots of lights, and the dancers have a lot of passion in their work which was great to see and lots of props/robots. Overall a good experience

In the latest case, it was the niece of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi who was the victim of snatchers. Damayanti Modi and her husband had returned from the border town of Amritstar in Punjab and had hired an autorickshaw to reach a guest house on Saturday. As the couple was about to get out of the hired vehicle, two motorcycle-borne miscreants snatched her purse and sped away. Damayanti is the daughter of Modi’s brother.
According to reports, Damayanti’s purse contained two mobile phones, her travel documents and around $800. She was scheduled to leave for Ahmedabad on Saturday evening. She said she's filed a police complaint about the matter.
The incident took place in the area where the Lieutenant Governor and Chief Minister of Delhi live. Law and order in the national capital are under the control of the Lieutenant Governor. City Chief Minister Aravind Kejriwal has been at loggerheads with the federal government for the worsening crime situation in the capital, as the police and the Lieutenant Governor report to the federal Home Ministry.
Delhi reported 130 robberies, 420 snatchings, 40 murders, 35 attempted murders, 160 rapes, 450 kidnappings, and 3,400 motor vehicle thefts in September, in addition to other categories of crime. In 2018, 4,707 cases of snatchings were reported, while by September 4,516 cases had been registered with the police.


A search has been launched for a woman who has been missing since Thursday.
Glasgow-born Hilary Woolley , 49, left her home, which is close to Robinson Way, Burbage, at 1pm on June 27.
She failed to return and was reported missing,
Leicestershire Police have been carrying out enquiries to find Hilary, with the last confirmed sighting of her at a store in Wolvey Road, Burbage, around 1pm on Thursday.
The mum-of-two is white, of large build, around 5ft tall, with shoulder length ginger hair.
Officers believe Hilary may be in the Glasgow area of Scotland and prior to that she may have been in the New Street area of Birmingham on Saturday (June 29).
In a statement, a spokesperson for Leicestershire Police said: "Hilary has never been missing before, as each day of no news or sightings goes by we and Hilary’s family are growing increasingly concerned for her welfare.
"She is known to have connections in the Daventry area of Northamptonshire, as well as Dunbar, Scotland. We are carrying out enquiries in those force areas and have circulated the appeal for Hilary across the country.
"If you can help in any way, whether you saw her a few days ago or you have any suspicions about where she may be now, then please get in touch."
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Leicestershire Police on 101, quoting incident 705 of 27 June 2019.
Police confirmed this afternoon that she had been traced safe and well in Scotland, while thanking all who had shared their earlier appeals.

Today for a change a movie review : The remake of the 1967 classic Le bal des vampires by Roman Polanski. Starring as Professor Abronsius is Géraldine Laloux from the de Duve Institute at Louvain University, Belgium and co-starring as Alfred, the assistant, is her postdoc Yoann Santin. Both also co-wrote the script and directed the film assisted by Adrià Sogues, Yvann Bourigault, and Han Remaut. They had casted Caulobacter crescentus as the innkeeper's pretty daughter Sarah, and as the villain Count von Krolock none other than Bdellovibrio exovorus.
Having bdellovibrios play the role of villains in microbiological vampire films is not new. Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, which is usually cast in this role, was first described four years before Roman Polanski released his movie in 1967. Briefly, it attacks its Gram‑negative bacterial victims, slips into their periplasm, and then sucks them dry as it grows and propagates (more on its predatory lifestyle in the last section). Susan Koval & Sandra Hynes (1991) describe the isolation of a "predacious vibrio that possessed a single, polar sheathed flagellum", and continue that they "did not observe any intraperiplasmic growth of strain JSS on C. crescentus, an essential character for Bdellovibrio species and [shall] refer to this isolate as Bdellovibrio-like." This isolate was baptized Bdellovibrio exovorus JSST by Koval et al. (2013) and characterized as a predatory epibiont of C. crescentus that remains attached to the outside of its host − better: victim − during growth and subsequent binary fission.
All previous studies of B. bacteriovorus, B. exovorus and other Bdellovibrio-like organisms (BALOs) have failed to clarify why these predators have very different host ranges among Gram‑negative bacteria. Related to this is the question of how they actually attach to their victims, that is, what their receptors are. The S-layer, a porous self-assembling paracrystalline protein lattice that covers the whole cell and which many bacterial and most archaeal species possess, was thought to be a protective coating that keeps vampires at bay. But this has not been proven. I have gone into such detail here to make it clear that new studies often build on decades of earlier work. Santin et al. (2023) were aware of this and mentioned it, of course, when they drafted the screenplay for their remake of Le bal des vampires.
B. exovorus takes center stage Every moviegoer expects a vampire movie to include several scenes in which they can witness a bitten victim turning paler and paler. B. exovorus does not disappoint here, and you see in Figure 1 how tiny hungry vampires attack and attach to the larger, happily growing Caulobacter cells. As in the other images in the study by Santin et al. (2023), the Caulobacters are mostly predivisonal cells, indicating normal growth with the signature stalk at one pole of the mother cell and, on the other side of a visible constriction, the to‑be daughter cell ("swarmer cell") lacking visible flagella at the other pole (like pili, flagella are too thin to be visible under the light microscope). Once attached, B. exovorus sucks out a Caulobacter cell in about 4 hours.
In the upper panel of Figure 1 (phase), the Caulobacter cells successively turn pale ("ghosts"), and the lower panel shows that a fluorescence-labeled protein completely bleaches out of the cytoplasm of the Caulobacter victims without (re)appearing in the firmly attached B. exovorus cells. This indicates that this protein, mCherry, is degraded and only oligopeptides or amino acids are absorbed by the vampire. In a similar experiment, DAPI‑labeled DNA in the cytoplasma of a "bitten" Caulobacter cell disappeared even a tad faster than its proteinaceous content. You will notice that the pale Caulobacter ghosts (Figure 1, top panel) retain their typical crescent shape. When the researchers labelled the prey peptidoglycan (PG) with the fluorescent D-amino acid HADA prior to the addition of B. exovorus, they found that ghost cells were stained entirely, like uninfected cells, indicating that predation only marginally disrupts the victim's cell wall.
During shooting the hunting scenes in their remake, Yoann Santin and his coworkers also casted several Alphaproteobacteria from the wider Caulobacter family in the role of the victim and found that some, which I am not listing here, are also "vampirized." It looks as if the host range of B. exovorus is not as limited as previously assumed. And while they were still busy with the hunting scenes they surprisingly found that the reference strain C. crescentus CB15N, which expresses the rsaA gene forming a functional S‑layer, was similarly predated as the S layer-deficient CB15N ΔrsaA mutant strain. Thus, the S-layer does not seem to protect against vampires very efficiently, at least not against B. exovorus. Of note: the 27 Å‑wide pores of the Caulobacter S-layer appear to be wide enough to allow, for example, pili (⌀ ~10 Å) to pass through and reach the outer membrane (OM).
The vampire's teeth Santin et al. (2023) caught the vampires grabbing their prey in flagrante, (see movies below), but light microscopy cannot provide details of the attachment process, which molecular structures are involved. However, they got a closer look at its teeth using cryo‑EM (Figure 2). You see in the magnification (Figure 2, ii) that (1.) Caulobacter's S-layer is penetrated, (2.) B. exovorus's OM is drawn so close to the OM of Caulobacter that both appear fused, and (3.) Caulobacter's inner membrane (IM) shows signs of progressive fragmentation. Apparently, B. exovorus uses this structure − the authors call it a "feeding" junction − to gain access to the cytoplasmic contents of its victim. This happens very quickly when secreted lipolytic enzymes fragment its IM, and secreted proteases and nucleases turn the cytoplasm into a smoothie.
Such "feeding" junctions do not show any conspicuous structures in the cryo-EM images, but have a remarkably consistent diameter of 165±20 nm (48 cells) in two experiments with C. crescentus CB15N (S‑layer) and of 164±22 nm (12 cells) in the S layer-deficient CB15N ΔrsaA mutant. What seems interesting, but does not lead to learning more about their molecular composition, is that the vampire attacks its victim over the entire surface of the predivisional cells − including the stalk, although less frequently − and only avoids the flagellated pole of the (future) swarmer cell. It is known that this pole ("polar microdomain") is heavily crowded internally − see here its modeling by David Goodsell and Keren Lasker − but it is unknown whether the cell wall here is depleted of any (suspected) receptor(s) for the attachment of B. exovorus.
The astounding vampire triplets Contrary to the conclusion of Koval et al. (2013), B. exovorus does not appear to reproduce by binary fission. Santin et al. (2023) found that predivisional B. exovorus cells, short filaments, mostly displayed two constriction sites, indicating that these vampires rely on a non-binary mode of cell division (Figure 3, B). The majority of B. exovorus cells produced three daughter cells (76%), while two progenies were rarer (24%), and four progenies were only occasionally observed in an (artificially) elongated Caulobacter (popZ::Ω) host.
Time lapse observation with short time intervals (Figure 3, A) revealed that B. exovorus initiates cell constriction during growth, apparently well coordinated with cell wall synthesis for cell elongation. Release of progeny cells is sequential, where the outermost (distal) cell leaves first and the prey-attached (proximal) cell leaves last (marked 1−3 in white, in Figure 3, A). Two other interesting details can be seen very clearly in Figure 3, A. First, after being "bitten" by B. exovorus, the predivisonal Caulobacter cell instantly halts its normal cell cycle progression, that is, it "freezes" before division, and successively (suckessively?) turns into a "ghost". Second, and this can only be seen in the bottom panel (mCherry), the residual fluorescence that remains in the ghost after the vampire has detached leaks out (min 207−209). This may indicate that when the vampire detaches from its victim, it plucks a piece out of the victim's OM and takes it with it, leaving an unsealed scar.
The B. exovorus life cycle Based on the above, Santin et al. (2023) describe the life cycle of Bdellovibrio exovorus in its main steps in Figure 4. While there are some similarities, there are still notable differences from the life cycle of the closely related, better-studied Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus (see here in STC, and here for a diagram). Both bdellos actively hunt by swimming, propelled by flagella, and attach with pili to prey cells they encounter to sites opposite to the flagellated pole (Figure 4, 1.). Once firmly attached to a prey cell, B. bacteriovorus slips through the outer membrane (OM) into the victim's periplasm, while B. exovorus forms a tight junction between its own OM and the prey OM (Figure 4, 2.).
The secretion of specific enzymes enables B. exovorus to disintegrate the inner membrane (IM) and to digest prey contents in situ (Figure 4, 3.). As the attached predator cell grows, sequential constriction sites become visible along the filament (Figure 4, 4.). Once growth is complete, the filament sequentially releases the outermost and then the second progeny (Figure 4, 5.+6.). When finally detaching from the sucked-out prey cell, which remains behind as a "ghost" while retaining its shape, B. exovorus may pluck out part of its victim's OM and leave an open scar (Figure 4, 7.).
During the shooting of the movie Le bal des vampires, various rehearsal shots were taken, of course. The directors kindly provided two short takes as time-lapse. Can you follow the successive steps of the diagram in Figure 4 in these clips? I apologize for the lousy, pixelated quality of the clips, as I had to compress the large video files to show them in this size, 400×400 pxl, on STC's website. However, all the essential details, for example the Caulobacter stalks, can be seen, and flagella are not/hardly visible under the light microscope anyway.
Unlike B. exovorus, B. bacteriovorus modifies the cell wall of its victim and grows within the periplasm ("bdelloblast") while sucking-up the cytoplasm through the shrinking but intact IM. Within the belloblast, B. bacteriovorus grows as a filament with regular constrictions, the number of which − and thus the number of equally-sized progeny cells later − is largely determined by the size of the host cell, while the growth rate depends on the nutritional status of the host cell. Finally, the filament divides (non-binary!) into up to a dozen or so mature, that is, already flagellated progeny cells and the bdelloblast is popped to release them.
Isn't it fascinating to learn that two organisms with the same lifestyle and a very similar genetic makeup arrive at quite different solutions in detail to successfully practice vampirism? Exactly what one finds again and again in almost all of biology: distinctly different molecular, mechanistic, and regulatory solutions for the same pathway among organisms with similar genetic makeup.

When a female gourami fish is pregnant, her belly is swollen at all times, according to Fish Spawn. The male builds a bubble nest before the bulge is visible. A bubble nest looks like a cluster of many tiny bubbles that float on the surface of the water.
During the first stage of gourami breeding, the male and female swim alongside each other for a few days. If the tank's temperature is between 78 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit and there is an adequate food supply, spawning successfully initiates. Some species of female gourami have been known to eat their eggs, so Fish Spawn recommends temporarily removing the female from the tank after she lays her eggs.

Increase your gut health by consuming bone broth.
All you need is:
- a slow cooker
- chicken frames (1-2) OR
- beef bones OR
- fish bones
- filtered water
- Apple Cider Vinegar
- Vegetables (optional)
You can pick up your animal frames or bones usually from either a local butcher, local markets or health food store. Call around to check beforehand though, just to make sure.
What to do:
Before you go to bed, place your bones into the slow cooker, pour in roughly 1/5 cup of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV), and fill it up with filtered water. The ACV works to draw out the nutrients from inside the marrow and other parts of the bones that humans can’t naturally chew/access. If you’re adding vegetables, chuck them in now too! Put the lid on and heat on the highest setting for at least 2 hours. Then turn to low and go catch some zzz’s. That’s it. When you get up the next morning (leave the broth at least 12 hours), simply strain the bones from the liquid, let it cool and store for up to one week in a sealed glass jar in the fridge.
You can use bone broth’s in place of stock for a healthier alternative, or use to create you own stews or soups. You can also drink bone broth straight, or with a few veggies (no salt needed) for the same benefits. It’s totally okay to re-heat.
For me, consuming bone broth regularly has really had a positive impact on my entire wellbeing. My gut feels healthy, is no longer bloated, and can digest certain foods a lot easier. Because it’s all connected, when my gut is healthy, my skin feels healthy and my brain is active, giving me more motivation to get out there and live the best life I can!
Tip: Save your offcuts/scraps from vegetables instead of chucking them in your compost sometimes (like carrot tops, celery leaves, onions, brocolli bases, Sweet potato skins, etc), and freeze them in a clip seal bag or jar. When you go to make your broth, chuck them in with your bones and get all the left over nutrients out of your veggies too! This is a good way to save money. Plus all the best parts of the veggies are usually in the roots or parts that don’t taste too great.
If you’ve ever made broth, or thought about doing it, let me know how you go, or where you got your recipe from! I’m always looking for new tips to get the most out of all my foods. If you have thyme, leave a comment below on how bone broth makes you feel. Or tell us how often you have broth (I definitely need to increase my intake!)

The "We Can't Stop" singer along with Demi Moore and Bruce Willis' youngest daughters, Scout and Tallulah Willis, all struck NSFW poses to fight back against Instagram's rule that women cannot show their breasts on the photo-sharing site.
Miley and Scout both flashed their breasts but censored the image with strategically placed stars so as to not have the photo removed by Instagram. Meanwhile, Tallulah is seen propped on a table on all fours sticking her butt out. Scout, 23, gestures as if she's about to spank her sibling. "Lazzzzz night," Miley captioned the racy photo.
Tallulah, 21, and the former Hannah Montana star then took their photo shoot the the bathroom. "@buuski bathroom selfie," Miley captioned.
