The fifteenth International Aids Conference was held in Bangkok in July 2004. Around 20,000 delegates attended the conference. The Thai Prime Minister and the Secretary-General of the United Nations both gave speeches at the opening ceremony.APNSW hosted a “go-go bar” at the event, where performances and demonstrations about HIV prevention took place. APNSW also hosted a session where members taught conference delegates "Information Education Communication" (IEC) production skills. This session was based on APNSW's experience developing the cross-cultural "Making Sex Work Safe" training materials.Paulo Longo, co-ordinator of the International Network of Sex Work Projects and co-author of the English and Spanish versions of “Making Sex Work Safe” said: “APNSW has developed a lot through this cultural approach to Making Sex Work Safe. It is the more impressive because of the many languages here. I hope what people see at this conference convinces them to invest in sex workers to use some of this technique in other regions too.”As a result of their activities around the conference, Empower Foundation reported a significant and positive shift in Thai public opinion towards sex workers.

I was curious about the value of gold and America's CPI (Consumer Price Index). What relationships exists between the gold and the CPI. Year 1950 is the base year in which I purchased 34.72 dollars of CPI. From 1960 until 2010 I show what 34.72 is worth in that year's dollars. CPI inflation % shows the yearly increase from the base year. While CPI to gold shows what percent of one troy ounce of gold does CPI equal.
So I built the simple spreadsheet listed below.
--------CPI GOLD -CPI--------CPI to
Year VALUE VALUE Inflation% GOLD
2010 4.16 1,410.25 804.84% 22.28%
1960 .64 .27 22.81% 120.90%
1950 .72 .72 0.00% 0.00%
The value of gold stayed ahead of CPI inflation by double digit percentages. An exception being 1960 and 1970 where CPI exceeded the value of a troy ounce of gold. I pose a small question for my readers. Why does the 2010 cost of goods and services within the CPI cost 804.84% more since 1950? The dollar is a dollar. Has inflation taken its toll? Congress will tell me quick that the prices went up. Everything costs more now. After checking decades old newspapers I can see that prices were cheaper in 1950 than 2010. Everyone is aware of inflation but few understand deflation. This of course is my statement of fact and may be an assumption that I will regret.
Dictionary dot com says inflation is a persistent, substantial rise in the general level of prices related to an increase in the volume of money and resulting in the loss of value of dollars.
While deflation is a fall in the general price level or a contraction of credit and available dollars.
Disinflation is a period or process of slowing the rate of inflation.
My college economics teacher stressed that when government prints more money than the value of goods and services it is buying things on the cheap, gold would probably grow in value. The market place will naturally adjust to there being more dollars in circulation by revaluing prices upwards. A loaf of bread cost 1.10 dollars until the printing press produced X dollars more. Now that same loaf of bread cost 1.39 dollars. The value of my money shrunk by 29 cents.
If a government buys back some of it currency from the market place. Then prices fall to match the availability of fewer dollars.
With that said, a citizen has a simple decision to make. Find an asset that stores value recognized by others. Two recognized stores of value are silver and gold. Not paper certificates of deposit or currency. No, I mean physically owning gold or silver. Perhaps storing it in a bank deposit box. A bar of the gold or coins such as the American Buffaloes and Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs, or South African Krugerrands can store value for you.
Americans haven't noticed how much currency one needs to carry in order to handle your daily spending. One reason is credit or debit cards equals not having to carry around bags of money just a slim plastic card.
I'm not on a rant about America falling. Any nation that treats its currency or debt like us has had rude awakenings. Germany, France and Great Britain should now know better from its recent experiences after World War II.
We need to take the credit / debit cards and check book away from our elected officials. They should only spend what they take in on taxes. Turn off the currency printing presses for a while. It would be nice to celebrate no governmental spending days. Sooner rather than later other governments are going to say, "I don't want to buy your debt! It's not worth anything."
Our politicians need to check into the Betty Ford's clinic for addiction treatment. Not for drugs or alcohol but our money!

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — AJ Brodeur scored six of his career-high 36 points in overtime and grabbed the last rebound to help Pennsylvania beat Dartmouth 82-79 on Friday night.
Dartmouth trailed 80-79 and had possession with 14.9 remaining in the extra period. Chris Knight drove to the basket but his shot rimmed out. Brodeur grabbed the rebound with 0.6 seconds left then added a pair of free throws. Ian Sistare's half-court shot hit the top of the backboard to end it.
Brodeur split a pair of free throws with 46 seconds left in regulation to tie it at 70. The Quakers forced a turnover on the next possession, but they didn't get off a shot as time expired.
Brodeur grabbed a game-high 11 rebounds. Devon Goodman had 12 points for Penn (15-8, 3-4 Ivy League). Antonio Woods added 10 points and 10 rebounds.
Knight had 25 points for the Big Green (11-12, 2-5). Sistare added 16 points. Brendan Barry had seven assists.
Penn plays Harvard at home on Saturday. Dartmouth plays Princeton on the road on Saturday.

Chinese President Hu promotes new economic co-op potential with Italy, EU
09:02, July 07, 2009
| Commerce Minister: protectionism not China solution against protectionism
Largest China biz delegation sign 30 plus deals with Italy
China active in boosting int'l co-op on tackling crisis - special
Visiting Chinese President Hu Jintao called for exploiting new cooperation potentials to further boost economic and trade relations with Italy in his meetings with Italian President Giorgio Napolitano and Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi on July 6 in Rome.
In his meeting with Berlusconi, the Chinese President said that the governments of the two countries should further facilitate economic and trade exchanges between enterprises of the two countries, particularly by offering policy support to financing and guarantee for cooperation between small and medium sized enterprises.
More bilateral strategic cooperation should also be tapped on the fields of telecom, infrastructure, automobile and logistics.
Hu urged the two sides to joint hands on opposing the trade and investment protectionism and solving trade disputes through consultations and dialogues.
Hu stressed that China and Italy should draw on their experience of bilateral cooperation on science and technology and environmental protection, deepen their cooperation on energy conservation and emission reduction, and new energy.
In addition, the two sides should seek cooperation on film and media and innovative designing.
He also hopes that the two countries would strengthen cooperation on tourism, research on traditional Chinese medicine, disease prevention and control, and disaster prevention and alleviation.
Agreeing entirely with Hu's views and proposals with regard to the development of bilateral ties, Berlusconi said Italy is ready to join hands with China to further bilateral cooperation in a number of fields.
Noting the smooth development of bilateral ties in recent years, the Italian prime minister also pointed out that both sides were making efforts to push ahead with their cooperation regardless of the impact of the international financial crisis.
The two leaders also exchanged views on ways of tackling the global financial crisis, fighting climate change and advancing the Doha Round talks.
After their meeting, the two leaders attended the signing ceremony for a number of cooperation documents between the two countries.
Italy is China's fifth largest trading partner within the European Union. Bilateral trade reached more than 38 billion U.S. dollars in 2008, which is close to the target of 40 billion dollars set by the two sides for the year of 2010.
In his meeting with his Italian counterpart Giorgio Napolitano at the Quirinal Palace, Hu urged both sides to expand substantial cooperation on various fields such as trade, investment, science and technology, environment protection, medicine and tourism.
Hu said both countries could enhance dialogue and coordination on various major international issues such as the global financial crisis, reform of the UN Security Council, climate change, environment protection and sustainable development.
Hu also briefed his Italian counterpart on the latest social and economic developments in China.
Napolitano said Italy is willing to further increase its economic cooperation and trade with China,
Napolitano praised China for its important role in the international arena as well as in addressing major global challenges.
He said he appreciates China's role in the G20 summit, the G8 + 5 summit and active participation in UN peacekeeping actions.
He also said the Italian side spoke highly of the measures China has taken to tackle the global financial crisis and economic downturn. He noted that China's participation is a must for the international community in its move to tackle the crisis, reform the international financial system and realize sustainable development.
On the EU-China relations, President Hu told his Italian counterpart that he believed Italy would continue to exert its influence within the European Union to boost the EU-China ties at large.
Napolitano said Italy would continue to play an active role in boosting the EU-China ties.
Italy is an all-around strategic partner of China, and also a trustworthy friend of China's within the European Union, said the Chinese President in his meeting with Italian Prime Miniter with Berlusconi.
Hu arrived in Rome earlier on July 6 for a state visit at the invitation of Napolitano.
Hu was also to attend the summit of the Group of Eight and major developing countries later this week in the central Italian city of L'Aquila.

“Are you in a complicated relationship? Does he unintentionally give you mixed signals? Do you constantly wonder where you stand with him and whether or not you have a future?
This is all too common. Some men have avoidant attachment styles, which means they claim to want intimacy but do whatever they can to avoid it. Some men are selfish and excited to court you and seduce you, but not excited about being great boyfriends. Some men are perfectly content as boyfriends but never want to get married. Some men are genuinely confused about what they want and how they feel about you.
So what do you do when you’re in love with him, but you don’t feel safe? What happens when the guy who seemed really into you stops texting, complimenting, and initiating sex. What’s the point of a relationship with a man who claims to love me but doesn’t act like it?
If you’re up in the middle of the night, wondering, “”Am I wasting my time in this relationship?”” you’re in the right place.
Want to end your confusion about whether Mr. Inconsistent can become Mr. Right? Keep reading…”
Hi Evan, My boyfriend of 2 1/2 years (off and on) says he loves me everyday, but his actions don’t follow his words. He doesn’t show me affection or attention, either physically or verbally. By this I mean he does not send text messages to say good morning anymore, he calls sometimes, but never to just say “Hi, I am thinking of you”; it’s always just to ask a financial question or work-related question. Sometimes he calls to tell me he needs something or to tell me something that happened to him. He never builds me up with kind or sweet words like he did in the beginning. He very rarely touches me, and sex has diminished ALOT over the last 10 months. It’s as though he lives in his world by himself, and so I am supposed to live by myself in mine, yet we live together…. I’m not saying that I require these things everyday, but every once in a while it would be nice to know that he thinks I am pretty or sweet or SOMETHING. I don’t think I am being too high maintenance by wanting his attention, but then again, I am not a guy and don’t know what they think or why they think it. He has asked me about marrying him a few times; I say “about” because he later told me that he was just asking to see where I was on the subject, not REALLY asking. Yet if he says something to me involving marrying him, I playfully reply with “I haven’t been asked”, to which he replies, “I have asked you”. So now not only does his behavior confuse me, but I cant help but wonder is he just not that into me, but afraid to break up? What do I do? I feel like I am in a sea of uncertainty and wasting my life away waiting on him. Your thoughts? —Michelle
You don’t really want my thoughts, do you?
My thoughts are merely going to challenge your worldview, rock the axis of your earth, and change the course of your entire life.
That’s a lot of impact you’re willing to give some stranger who gives dating advice.
I don’t understand this phenomenon of “My boyfriend is totally indifferent towards me; how can I lock him in for the rest of my life?”

The Great Lakes of North America make up 20% of the Earth’s fresh surface water. Their dynamic ecosystems have been considered by many Native American tribes to function as the heart of the interconnected ecosystems that make up the North American continent known to many of the Indigenous peoples here as Turtle Island. The Great Lakes are known world wide for their biodiversity, beauty, fishing, and trade and shipping routes. These fragile and beautiful ecosystems along with the human populations that live along their shores are under constant threat from the Nuclear Industry that has been slowly and quietly irradiating the heart of the Turtle for decades.
Spent fuel pools of highly radioactive wastes sit dangerously on the shores of lakes Erie, Huron, Michigan and Ontario. Aging and dysfunctional reactors continue to operate as the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the Department of Energy and their Canadian counterparts push to allow these dangerous behemoths to function for decades more, prioritizing corporate profits ahead of public health and safety and the protection of the natural environment. This series of articles will detail this Nuclear Nightmare on the Great Lakes of North America as it has transpired and continues to unfold.

3.8 split port swap help
ok guys ive got the motor in and have had it running for a while my problem is the fuel.
i modded the fuel rail to be return style like i needed but the damn thing keeps leaking where i put hose and clamps on it. i know someone used to make these things and it isnt too hard to do but in my sourcing of fuel rails i stumbled upon the e150 and f150 fuel rail and was led to believe one from a 97-99 would fit no problems and work no problems.
this is unfortunately a lie. only 2 bolt holes actually lined up not a big deal that can be fixed nd then the manifold hits the return line so i modified that it fit after that then with the manifold on it makes the injectors sit at a weird angle and the leak from the tops. so that rail comes off old moded one goes back on fixed leaking hose and changed the fpr setup but it still leaks.
anyone have any ideas how to make this thing not leak its irritating. ive attempted to fix it several times and for a bit it runs fine then starts leaking.
any help is greatly appreciatted.

Radhika Radhakrishnan and Sebastian NauThesis Commendation
Reducing the energy demands of cities will be one of the biggest challenges for architects and urban planners in the coming decades. Tackling the urban microclimate, by addressing the urban morphology in design processes, could play a crucial role in this process; it is likely the most suitable way to enforce means of passive energy saving onto urban agglomerations.
The design research project presented in this thesis investigates the current methods in microclimatic research and proposes how such strategies, which so far have only been used in urban analysis, can be implemented in design processes. The complex interaction of physical processes that result in urban microclimates leads to the adaptation of simplified morphological indicators. Such indicators that reveal latent microclimatic characteristics of urban morphologies will be analysed and further explored. Coupled with a genetic algorithm it is subsequently shown how they can be utilized to simultaneously generate and evaluate urban layouts as part of generative design processes.
The project thus introduces a bio-climatic approach to urban planning that incorporates microclimatic considerations. Throughout the project strategies are developed that approach urban design from the patch/block level. It will be shown how patch morphologies can be optimized according to microclimatic considerations and how such patches may aggregate to form coherent urban structures. By implementing different indicators at different stages of the design it is revealed how different parameters for evaluation might come into play at different stages of the project. The result is a hierarchical planning approach from schematic urban patches all the way down to the building level.
In addition, the method of using morphological indicators will be extended to draw conclusions about urban qualities inherent to patch morphologies. Together with microclimatic considerations it will be shown through a series of design experiments how these can be utilized as latent information within urban planning.

These days Reputation Managers no longer have to only contend with traditional media, they also have to deal with citizen journalists and bloggers and the public alike.
Now there is an addition to this mix. Enter Current TV as part of the Top TV offering.
South African bloggers and citizen journalists now have a new outlet for their creative efforts as Al Gore’s Current TV launched this weekend as part of Top TV’s entry-level bouquet offering.
Current TV chairman and co-founder Al Gore explains that the TV channel encourages submissions of content of all kinds from young videographers and citizen journalists.
With a particular passion for investigative journalism – he was a journalist himself for many years before entering politics – Gore says CTV is actively looking for news and investigative pieces.
"The accent of Current TV is on citizen and investigative journalism," he says. "I need not say how important it is to civilisation and democracy to have vigorous investigative journalism.
IT-Online – http://www.it-online.co.za/content/view/2076841/142/ reported that Gore told them that Current TV hopes to avoid some of the legal and regulatory problems that have plagued some other blogger or citizen journalism platforms by following a particular submission process that will help raise professional standards and ensure legal compliance.
The key thing is that "Current TV is open in that the viewers themselves decide what content will go on the channel." Before content is aired on Current TV, it is first loaded on to the company’s web site, www.current.com, where users critique offerings and select those they wish to see broadcast.
Anyone can submit content to Current TV, and full directions for doing so are on the site.
Reputation Managers should develop strategies to deal with all types of journalists and watch & monitor the impact of this outlet.


After being selected, Johnson assured Pirates fans about his playing ability. “You’re getting the best player in the draft,” Johnson said on MLB Network.
Georgia Tech catcher Kevin Parada was selected by the Mets at No. 11. Parada established himself as one of college baseball’s best catchers and top hitters. Standing at 6-1, the 197-pounder posted a .360 batting average, 88 RBIs and 26 home runs last season.
“I’m extremely proud of Kevin and his night tonight,” Georgia Tech baseball coach Danny Hall said in a statement. “To be drafted by a great organization like the New York Mets and to join other Georgia Tech greats as a first-rounder is a tremendous honor.”
The Padres selected the first high school pitcher of the night in right-hander Dylan Lesko at No. 15. Hailing from Buford High School, the 6-2, 195-pound Lesko was regarded as a potential top overall pitcher in the draft until having Tommy John surgery in April. The Padres took their chance on Lesko, given his track record as a game changer. In his junior season, Lesko, who also had committed to Vanderbilt, was named the 2020-2021 Gatorade National Baseball Player of the Year after recording 112 strikeouts with an 11-0 record.
The Reds selected 17-year-old third baseman Cam Collier with the 18th pick. The son of former MLB player Lou Collier joins a lengthy list of other second-generation players picked in the 2022 draft. Collier is from Austell but attended Kennesaw’s Mount Paran Christian School. After graduating early, Collier competed at the junior college level with Chipola College in Florida this season. The 6-1, 220-pounder had a .333 batting average with eight home runs in his first season. After one year, Collier announced his commitment to the University of Louisville.
In the Competitive Balance Round A, right-handed pitcher Landon Sims, another Georgian, was selected by the Diamondbacks. Representing South Forsyth High School in Cumming, Sims spent the last two seasons playing for Mississippi State. As a Bulldog, Sims held a career 1.82 ERA with 123 strikeouts. He was looking to add to his stats this season, but his campaign ended early after he tore his UCL in March.
Jackson Holliday, a shortstop from Stillwater (Okla.) High School and the son of former major leaguer Matt Holliday, was the first overall pick by the Orioles.


Will Jeremy Hunt (senior UK Minister responsible for the Olympics) be in post when the games begin?
Settled on 07/27/2012 21:54 by kruijs
settled question on option 'Yes'.
Jeremy Hunt: David Cameron rules out Hunt inquiry
David Cameron has told MPs he has seen "no evidence" that Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt acted improperly in handling News Corp's proposed takeover of the broadcaster BSkyB.
Labour wants the prime minister to order an inquiry into whether Mr Hunt broke the ministerial code.
But, in response to an "urgent question", he said this was "not necessary or right".
Speaker John Bercow granted the question following Labour's request.
David Cameron clearly didn't want to be there, forced to come to Parliament by a Speaker who probably didn't want to be seen to play any part in protecting Jeremy Hunt.
The prime minister was combative, at times angry, as he insisted Mr Hunt had acted fairly and impartially in the BSkyB takeover.
For Ed Miliband this is an issue of leadership. The Labour leader said the rules had clearly been broken, yet the prime minister was standing by and doing nothing.
Mr Cameron said Mr Miliband was "weak and wrong" and said it was right that Mr Hunt should give evidence to the Leveson Inquiry rather than face a separate probe into the ministerial code.
The culture secretary will be grateful for the fulsome support the PM gave him.
But he is not in the clear yet - the prime minister repeated that if Leveson uncovered new evidence of any wrongdoing he would act.
The opposition says Mr Cameron's independent adviser on ministerial interests - Sir Alex Allan - should investigate whether Mr Hunt's contacts with Rupert Murdoch's News Corp were too close during consideration of the company's attempt to take over BSkyB.

The challenge: to leave your billionaire lifestyle behind for two weeks…
Italian tycoon Antonio Di Marcello relishes the challenge—but running into Sadie Parker while working undercover as a mechanic rocks him to the core. Four years after their fevered fling stripped away his iron guard, he’s confronted with the shocking consequences…
Sadie has given up hope in her desperate attempts to contact Antonio. Now she has to face the day she’s both dreaded and longed for! And Antonio’s claim over her and her son is hard to resist—especially as he’ll use a sensual onslaught to get what he wants!
Rachael Thomas does it again! Sunshine, sizzling passion, and simmering sexual tension abound in this latest novel. Antonio Di Marcello is a real alpha male – the epitome of a rich playboy, with the billionaire lifestyle, gorgeous Italian looks, and a reputation as a real womaniser.
His first marriage to Eloisa has failed catastrophically, and as far as the press are concerned, that’s entirely down to him. His cheating ways are well documented. It seems Antonio has no heart, and no ability to love or be faithful.
Sadie is all too aware of that fact. A tempestuous weekend with Antonio took her to the heights of happiness, but she quickly crashed down to earth when Antonio abandoned her, informing her that he was to be married and telling her coldly that he can offer her nothing more. Finding herself pregnant, Sadie went to his family home to tell him of his unborn child, but was cruelly turned away by Antonio’s mother. Antonio ignored her pleading letter, and clearly wanted nothing to do with her or the baby. For three years now, Sadie has been a single parent, caring for her beloved little boy, Leo, and trying desperately to put the memory of Antonio’s cruel betrayal behind her.
When he crashes back into her life in the most unexpected way, Sadie is in turmoil. No matter what he did to her, how can she resist those dark eyes – eyes which are so like their son’s? How can she hide the passion he still ignites in her? Yet, when it becomes clear that Antonio has deceived her yet again, and that he has a very clear motive for wanting her back in his life, she knows she must hide her true feelings at all costs.
For how could a man like Antonio ever bring her happiness, when he is incapable of love?
Taking the reader on a whirlwind journey through Rome, a Caribbean island, London, and an English country estate, Rachael Thomas creates a page-turning story of a cat-and-mouse game where the stakes are high for everyone involved. Can Antonio be the father he always wanted to be? Can he be the husband Sadie deserves? Or will his cold upbringing bring nothing but disaster for his new wife and child? Read it and find out! You won’t be disappointed. 5/5

Are we throwing away too much?
Will raw materials become endangered species?
That is fabric for thought!
Discarded materials are often still usable before they end up in the recycling circuit.
Making new products out of discarded materials is what we call ‘upcycling’.
Upcycling is hot but more important, it’s useful and environmentally friendly.
With upcycling we combat waste.
Textile is one of the materials which we throw away in large quantities. But as long as the material isn’t worn-out, one can still use it for many things.
The second Hasselt Upcycling Festival wants to assemble upcycling-addicts from all over Europe for a creative, inspirational and artistic conference on upcycling textile.

The murder charges against Donnie Ray Brantley were dropped again just moments before a jury was to be seated for his trial Monday in a Bradley County courtroom.
This was the second time Brantley has seen the charges dropped accusing him of the murder of his wife, Marsha, who disappeared in June 2009. Her body has never been found.
Criminal Court Judge Andrew Freiberg granted the motion to drop charges made by 10th District Attorney General Steve Crump, who said he took the action “with a heavy heart.”
The motion was filed "without prejudice," meaning the charges could be brought again in the future.
Crump said he did not believe there was enough evidence to continue into the trial, but felt it was his office’s duty to proceed on the finding of the grand jury’s October indictment of Brantley for first-degree murder.
The defense had filed a motion claiming there was a question concerning where a crime against Marsha Brantley actually occurred, causing Crump to consider a similar case in McMinn County on which the state had lost the argument.
The decision was made over the weekend as Crump said that was when he spoke to Marsha Brantley’s family about the decision.
“They were saddened, but they said, ‘We believe in you,’” he said.
Early this morning Crump issued a full, formal statement to the Cleveland Daily Banner regarding his decision to drop the case for now:
"After much study and consideration, our trial team felt that the best decision was to dismiss the case," Crump cited. "This decision was not made lightly or without due reflection. We discussed the matter with the family of Marsha Brantley, and while they were disappointed, they ultimately trusted our decision, as did the investigators with the Bradley County Sheriff's Office and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation."
Crump added, "We were very concerned based upon the state of the law and the previous rulings of the court that there was a very significant chance that our case would not survive a motion for judgment of acquittal at the close of the state's case. There is no appeal for the state of Tennessee from that decision, unlike civil cases with a similar result. We have moved the matter to our Cold Case Task Force and will redouble our investigative efforts to uncover additional evidence that will lead to a final and just resolution to the murder of Marsha Brantley."
Brantley, appearing with his attorney, Lee Davis and his daughter, Elise, thanked the judge for dismissing the charges.
“I would also like to thank my family for all their support for this extremely stressful period, and I look forward to putting this time behind me,” Brantley said.
Crump said the Cold Case Unit's investigation " involves going back to the basic building blocks of the case, tearing apart all of the assumptions you’ve made in the case and going forward — re-testing where you can and locating things you can that you probably thought were unlocatable,” Crump said.

As of today, American Alan Gross has been in a Cuban prison for five years, Reuters reports, and his wife is calling on President Obama to bring him back before it's "too late." "I am afraid that we are at the end," says Judy Gross. "After five years of literally wasting away, Alan is done," though he's far from done with his 15-year sentence. She says her husband has lost more than 100 pounds—as well as five teeth—over that period, and he's now hobbling and blind in one eye. His lawyer says Gross is more and more suicidal and said his goodbyes to his wife and daughter in July.
Gross, who turned 65 in May, said he would rather die than turn 66 in prison. He's been refusing medical care and threatening a hunger strike, ABC News reports. He was arrested Dec. 3, 2009, while working for USAID as a subcontractor and sentenced for bringing telecommunications gear into the country. US officials have turned down one potential avenue to freedom: a prisoner exchange involving three Cuban agents. They say Gross shouldn't be compared to spies, Reuters notes. But the White House, which has said that the detention is "hurting the relationship between the United States and Cuba," tells ABC it's working on securing his release. (More Alan Gross stories.)

Job Outlook For Physician Assistants in Virginia
The demand for physician assistants in Virginia is expected to grow by a whopping 32 percent by 2030. Several factors are responsible for this demand. Like many other states, Virginia is facing a physician shortage: The Old Dominion State only has 256 physicians for every 100,000 individuals, and more than 25 percent of those physicians are over the age of 60. Physician assistants can perform many of the same services physicians perform, particularly in the area of primary care.
Additionally, health disparities based on income and geographic factors continue to exist throughout Virginia that derive from disadvantaged groups’ ability to access the care they need. Physician assistants most often deliver care in non-teaching hospitals that are well positioned to serve the health needs of populations that would otherwise be underserved, particularly in rural areas.

Virginia Metro Wise Employment & Salary Data For Physician Assistants
The highest concentration of physician assistants in Virginia is to be found in the cities of Norfolk, Newport News and Virginia Beach. It’s also one of the areas where physician assistants earn the highest salaries. This is one of the most densely populated part of Virginia where the need for health care providers is most acute. The Richmond metropolitan area is another populous region where nearly 25 percent of the inhabitants have incomes below the federal poverty line; among such populations, the need for primary care services is traditionally high, so it’s not surprising that many of Virginia’s physician assistants are employed in Virginia’s capital city.
The Blue Ridge Mountain communities of Roanoke and Lynchburg also have high numbers of working physician assistants. These communities are popular retirement locations, and aging populations typically have a higher demand for health care services than their younger cohorts.

| Virginia Beach-Norfolk-Newport News || 990 || $55.43 || $9,610 || $115,290 |

UNIONDALE, N.Y., Dec. 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Angion Biomedica Corp (NASDAQ:ANGN), a biopharmaceutical company that has focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel small molecule therapeutics to address fibrotic diseases, announced that on December 15, 2022, it received a letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market notifying Angion that for the last 30 consecutive business days the bid price of Angion’s common stock had closed below $1.00 per share, the minimum closing bid price required by the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq listing rule 5450(a)(1).
The notification received has no immediate effect on the listing of Angion’s common stock on Nasdaq and Angion does not believe the notification will adversely impact its ongoing strategic realignment process, previously announced July 25, 2022. In accordance with listing rule 5810(c)(3)(A), Angion has 180 calendar days, or until June 13, 2023, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price rule. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of Angion’s common stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days before June 13, 2023.
If Angion’s common stock does not achieve compliance by June 13, 2023, Angion may be eligible for an additional 180-day period to regain compliance if it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and provides written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Nasdaq staff that Angion will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if Angion does not meet the other listing standards, Nasdaq could provide notice that Angion’s common stock will become subject to delisting. In the event Angion receives notice that its common stock is being delisted, Nasdaq rules permit Angion to appeal any delisting determination by the Nasdaq staff to a Hearings Panel.
Angion currently meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement. Angion intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its common stock between now and June 13, 2023, and will evaluate available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the minimum bid price rule.

Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In particular, Angion’s ability to execute its ongoing strategic realignment and its ability to comply with the other Nasdaq listing rules, among other factors, could cause results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this release. Angion undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement in this press release, except as required by law.

The tragic suicide of famed-chef Anthony Bourdain has shed renewed attention on how those who suffer from depression tend to suffer alone, and in silence. This was certainly the case when Robin Williams passed away, and it will undoubtedly be linked to Mr. Bourdain’s passing as well. Depression is something that we don’t talk a lot about in the prepper-verse, but it’s actually a topic that deserves a lot more attention, particularly when we consider the grim way of life that survivors can expect to contend with following a game-changing disaster.
While many people who commit suicide often do so without alerting others to problems they may be going through beforehand, the majority actually do. However, these signals can be hard to pick up on, and there’s no universal checklist that we can follow for guidance. However, there are some general things that we can look for that may indicate that someone is in trouble.
Talking About Suicide or Death
The first, and most-obvious sign is when people actually verbalize their bleak views on life and their desire to end it all. Unfortunately, most people don’t take these claims seriously, and most people who make them will also downplay it as well. Consequently, if someone who is down to begin with starts talking about suicide, it can be a strong indication that they’re either looking for help or they intend to go through with it.
Tidying Loose Ends
Another sign is when people suddenly start preparing for their death. They make a will, they wrap up loose-ends, they visit family and friends. The trick is to be able to distinguish between someone who is being prudent and responsible as opposed to someone who is acting out of character. However, these uncharacteristic steps are a strong indication that someone may be planning to end their lives, and they often go unnoticed.
Uncharacteristic Behavior Changes
People who commit suicide usually show some kind of change in their behavior at some point along the way. While they can be subtle, they are a red-flag, particularly if they’re really out of character. Perhaps they get depressed, hopeless and start isolating themselves all at the same time. Some start drinking or taking drugs. Others become reckless and increasingly-place themselves in harm’s way. While these signs don’t necessarily mean that a suicide is imminent, they do indicate that someone may be going through some dangerous mental health issues that should be addressed.
Surprisingly, a good percentage of people who take their lives actually threaten to do it beforehand, but people don’t take them seriously. Maybe someone will joke about keeping guns, knives or pill bottles away from them. Perhaps they will comment about driving into a tree while they’re behind the wheel. Maybe they’ll actually go into creepy detail about how they imagine killing themselves. However, they usually end up brushing-off these instances and downplaying their significance, and this can give people the impression that things aren’t that serious after all.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of different ways that we can interpret signs like these, and it’s really easy to read things into situations that are not all that dire. On the other hand, ignoring signs and symptoms that tell our gut that something’s wrong can provide us with a missed-opportunity to intervene as well. At the end of the day, knowing the person, knowing when something isn’t right, and not being afraid to address the issue head-on can end up being what it takes to save someone’s life.
Take some time to think, research and talk about suicide warning signs. Suicide rates are increasing year after year, and it doesn’t take a lot of imagination to see how they can easily skyrocket following a SHTF situation when things get really bad. The question is how prepared are you to deal with it when the time comes?

About this product
- DescriptionThe Cans and other later writings of the school of Mo-tzu, dating from about 300 B.C., contain nearly all that survives of the logic of ancient China, and its optics and mechanics, the only organized set of geometrical definitions, and the only fully rationalized system of ethics. They represent the high point of abstract rationality in traditional Chinese civilization, and are crucial documents for any inquiry into its achievements and limitations in logic and science. Unfortunately their formidable textual difficulties have hitherto made it impossible to use them with any confidence, and English translations of Mo-tzu, have omitted them. Western silogists have generally igred this rich material with the result that they have been forced to draw their conclusions about Chinese logic from the almost negligible remains of the Sophists. The present work begins with a general account of the school of Mo-tzu, its social basis as a movement of craftsmen, its isolated place in the Chinese tradition, and the nature of its later contributions to logic, ethics and science. The relation of Mohist thinking to the structure of the Chinese language is also discussed. The textual problems of the later writings, the grammar and style, the technical termilogy, the significance of stock examples, and the overall organization of the documents, are then explored in detail. With the investigation of these preliminary questions, the possibilities of interpretation are confined within controllable limits. The edited and antated Chinese text follows, with an English translation and commentary, a glossary, and a photographic reproduction of the unemended text from the Taoist Patrology.
