What Does Big E Think About WWE’s Push Towards Representation?
WWE Champion Big E discussed the importance of representation in wrestling and WWE's recent push to promote wrestlers of color
WWE Champion Big E is enjoying a remarkable reign on top. In the midst of a complicated feud between Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens, Big E is establishing himself as the top good guy in the company. What is also notable is Big E is the second Black WWE Champion this year, following Bobby Lashley.
This follows a push by WWE to push Black talent. Big E recently spoke about the importance of representation.
When you look around at the landscape of our industry, in WWE and outside of WWE, it just feels like a really good time to be a Black professional wrestler
I hope we continue to move in this direction and let people be themselves, let people be unique. I’m proud to be one of many talented Black wrestlers in WWE and around the world.
What’s important here is Big E and others weren’t given their spots. They earned them. I don’t think you could argue that Big E hasn’t been deserving of a championship reign for a long time.
Wrestling’s History Of Representation
Compared to other sports and entertainment sectors, wrestling’s record on representation isn’t bad. Promoters understand even in the 50s and 60s that Black champions could draw massive crowds. But progress still had to be forced. Wrestlers like Bearcat Wright, Junkyard Yard, and Bobo Brazil paved the way by drawing huge crowds and working to desegregate the sport.

The title “First black world champion” is disputed, but the most popular was Ron Simmons (later known as Faroq in WWF). Simmons defeated Vader for the WCW World Heavyweight Title in a historic match.

Sputnik Monore, while white, refused to wrestle in front of segregated crowds. He became so popular that promoters had no choice but to desegregate wrestling crowds in Jim Crow Memphis.
Wrestling has tried to reflect its audience because it is about making money and putting butts in seats at the end of the day.
What’s more, Big E, Lashley, Sasha Banks, and others weren’t handed their championship reigns to be “woke” or performative. Each of them earned it. People like to go after Vince for being a Republican and Trump supporter, but he allowed wrestlers to support BLM without any pressure to do otherwise.

The Beautiful Diversity of Wrestling
These stars aren’t getting a push because they’re Black. They’re getting a push because they’ve earned it. These stars are icons that fans of all backgrounds can appreciate.
Go to a wrestling show, and you will see everyone of every age, race, and economic status. Wrestling is for everyone, and it’s what makes it so unique. Too often in America, our entertainment is still segregated, but when you’re at a wrestling show, you’re just there as a fan. The universality of pro wrestling is unique, and it’s what makes me love it so much.

Scientists have captured the first-ever views of Mars replicating what a space station would see.
The unprecedented aspect showcases the curving horizon and layers of atmosphere, similar to what an astronaut sees of Earth from the International Space Station (ISS).
NASA’s Mars Odyssey orbiter captured the newly released panorama as humans work towards preparing towards a trip to the Red Planet.
The spacecraft took images in May from an altitude of about 250 miles (400 kilometres) – the same altitude at which the space station flies above Earth.
A series of ten panoramic images were stitched end to end to show the curving Martian landscape below gauzy layers of clouds and dust.
The space agency explains: “The images offer not only a fresh, and stunning, view of Mars, but also one that will help scientists gain new insights into the Martian atmosphere.
“While there are no astronauts yet at Mars, this view gives us a sense of what they might see.”
Jonathon Hill of Arizona State University, operations lead for Odyssey’s camera, called the Thermal Emission Imaging System, or THEMIS, adds: “If there were astronauts in orbit over Mars, this is the perspective they would have.
“No Mars spacecraft has ever had this kind of view before.”
NASA say the reason why the view is so uncommon is because of the challenges involved in creating it.
Engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, which manages the mission, and Lockheed Martin Space, which built Odyssey and co-leads day-to-day operations, spent three months planning the THEMIS observations.
The infrared camera’s sensitivity to warmth enables it to map ice, rock, sand, and dust, along with temperature changes, on the planet’s surface.
It can also measure how much water ice or dust is in the atmosphere, but only in a narrow column directly below the spacecraft. That’s because THEMIS is fixed in place on the orbiter; it usually points straight down.
The mission wanted a more expansive view of the atmosphere. Seeing where those layers of water-ice clouds and dust are in relation to each other – whether there’s one layer or several stacked on top of each other – helps scientists improve models of Mars’ atmosphere.
Because THEMIS can’t pivot, adjusting the angle of the camera requires adjusting the position of the whole spacecraft. In this case, the team needed to rotate the orbiter almost 90 degrees while making sure the Sun would still shine on the spacecraft’s solar panels but not on sensitive equipment that could overheat.
The easiest orientation turned out to be one where the orbiter’s antenna pointed away from Earth. That meant the team was out of communication with Odyssey for several hours until the operation was complete.
The Odyssey mission hopes to take similar images in the future, capturing the Martian atmosphere across multiple seasons.
“I think of it as viewing a cross-section, a slice through the atmosphere,” said Jeffrey Plaut, Odyssey’s project scientist at JPL. “There’s a lot of detail you can’t see from above, which is how THEMIS normally makes these measurements.

Picture:John Paterson-CEO of NACCHO affiliate Aboriginal Medical Services Alliance NT (AMSANT),one of the driving forces behind the APO NT (full details of APO below)
APO NT does not support passage of the Alcohol Mandatory Treatment Bill (the Bill). Our organisations do not agree with key assumptions which underpin the Bill. We do not agree that mandatory treatment as provided for in this bill is an effective way to assist in reducing alcohol related harm in the NT.
The mandatory rehabilitation scheme outlined in the Bill is not based on the best available evidence about what is effective to address alcohol dependence. The measures contained in the Bill will not be cost-effective and will not work.
The Bill in its current form would be a de facto re-criminalisation of public drunkenness which is contrary to the recommendations of the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. APO NT believes detaining problems drinks will lead to unnecessary tensions between Aboriginal people and police and is likely to result in more Aboriginal people entering the criminal justice system. Prisons in the NT are already overflowing with Aboriginal people.
We also believe that the Bill indirectly discriminates against Aboriginal people in the NT, particularly those Aboriginal people living remotely who are often more likely to drink in public places when they visit centres or towns.
APO NT believes that there may be a limited role for involuntary treatment in extreme circumstances where individuals are at very high risk of harm and unable to manage their circumstances, where clinically effective and culturally appropriate methods of engaging the patient into treatment have been tried and failed, and where strong safeguards and protections are in place, including that it does not criminalise, either directly, the behaviours it seeks to address.
The NT is a small jurisdiction with a finite amount of resources for programs and services. The budget allocation for the mandatory rehabilitation scheme is $45 million to set up and run the scheme for a year, which works out to an average spending of approximately $80,000 per problem drinker. APO NT believes that the NT, by investing in existing voluntary rehabilitation and other alcohol treatment programs including AOD treatment provided in Aboriginal primary health care, as part of a holistic suite of reforms which includes population supply reduction measures.
About APO NT
Aboriginal Peak Organisations of the Northern Territory – APO NT – is an alliance comprising the Central Land Council (CLC), Northern Land Council (NLC), Aboriginal Medical Services Alliance NT (AMSANT), North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency (NAAJA) and Central Australian Aboriginal Legal Aid Service (CAALAS).
The alliance was created to provide a more effective response to key issues of joint interest and concern affecting Aboriginal people in the Northern Territory, including through advocating practical policy solutions to government. APO NT is committed to increasing Aboriginal involvement in policy development and implementation, and to expanding opportunities for Aboriginal community control. APO NT also seeks to strengthen networks between peak Aboriginal organisations and smaller regional Aboriginal organisations in the NT.

Peter Schönlein is a lucky man, both privately and professionally. Marriage, family, the workplace, the daily round, every area of the restorer's life has a movie-like sheen, burnished with intensity, sensuality and happiness. But then his wife, Christa, leaves the family for a few days to attend a seminar, Peter meets a younger woman, and the gleaming picture begins to flicker. Why does he embark on an affair with Lisa whom he finds, let's not mince words, frankly repulsive? Where is the hidden flaw in his immaculate shooting script?
Norbert Niemann tells of the lives of five people in the 1990s. They are not big city dwellers, fashion-inflamed representatives of the "Me Generation", but inhabitants of the complacent provinces. And whatever is stirred up there has ramifications for the community. Niemann's five characters find themselves swept into a world whose images, patterns and implications threaten to overturn the purpose of their lives. Caught up in a flood of second-hand emotions, it becomes almost impossible for them to rediscover their true feelings.
Norbert Niemann has achieved something altogether unexpected: a large-scale social novel of the Nineties that asks how one can find the space to live an individual and meaningful life in an environment deprived of bearings and values.
For Wie man's nimmt, Norbert Niemann was awarded the prestigious Ingeborg-Bachmann-Preis.

I would like some info regarding slugs. How do you know if your barrel can shoot them? I am afraid of damaging my barrel.
I have a Priest in 5.5mm, the 15,89gr run at an ave of 950fps, the 18.13gr run at an ave of 910fps.
I got hold of a few NSA 22,5gr slugs to test, initial accuracy was good, and chrony was.....780fps
I cannot change the regulator pressure without major surgery, so slugs are out on the Priest, but
My Airforce Talon is another thing, when I get more slugs, they will be used in the Talon, due to the "adjustability" of the weapon
That is a project all on it's own
How do you get hold of the NSA slugs in this country? I have a Huben K1 and it was born for slugs but alas I cannot source them. - I would prefer a heavier slug tho, something like 34gr or so.
With the recent peaks of interests into slugs in the air rifle community I don't know why the major manufacturers(like JSB etc) havnt jumped on board the hype train.

Dairy products and wool are the main breadwinners' significant international export to New Zealand, together with a dairying course lead to over a fifth of the nation's annual export earnings.
Working an unusual natural phenomenon for farmer's land – milking cows, sheep shearing – when using the latest in technology to maintain and harvest their crops, which vary from the principles of wine and olives.
Farm automation, often associated with “smart farming”, is a technology that makes farms more efficient and automates the crop or livestock production cycle. You can get more information about Protrack farm automation systems at LIC via online sources.
Based on current reports, it is estimated that 25 percent of farms in New Zealand have observed a reversal of land use in the last ten years, together with dairying developing agriculture and forestry.

The strategy outlines how the business needs to work together to meet these challenges and issues by focusing on five main outcomes, be increased farm profitability, achieve industry-government effort that is solid, ensure that internationally competitive source of milk, increase local business and international reputation d and bring talented, skilled individuals for business.
The use of appropriate technology to increase productivity in all aspects of the farm is a theme continued through the strategy. New Zealand farmers have consistently been on the leading edge of innovation, being an early adopter of technology progress in their farming methods.

It was surprisingly chilly the morning we took these portraits. The kids had a hard time at first since it was so early in the morning, but as you can see, they quickly warmed up and gave me some sweet smiles that I adore! And how much do you love their little outfits!!!
Becky is the sweetest person, and her little boy and husband are so lucky to have her. And don't you love her cute cowgirl/ cowboy theme, so much fun! I had a blast that day, thank you to you both :)
He's here!! Andrea, as you might remember from her maternity session, delivered a GORGEOUS baby boy. He was so stinking cute i couldn't get enough of him. He has two big brothers that are waiting to welcome him home, and two loving parents, both are well and loving every moment!
No they're not engaged haha! Just tons of fun, and full of laughs. I could not have had more fun with this couple, love you guys!

I was so excited to photograph Andrea for her maternity session, not all women want to be photographed during this special time in their life. If only you knew how beautiful you are! I have to confess, I too hid from the camera during my pregnancies, and I wish I hadn't. There is just something about a woman carrying a child that is beautiful beyond measure.
This handsome little boy slept like a rock, he was so snuggly sweet! I'm glad I'm related and get to see him often! Love you baby Eli <3 <3

Whilst Plan B restrictions are easing, the government is still placing an emphasis on the importance of vaccinations, including the booster jab.
Portsmouth is therefore opening up more clinics throughout the next couple of weeks to make getting the Pfizer vaccine easier.
Instead of traditional settings like a doctor's surgery or hospitals, Portsmouth City Council is working with Solent NHS Trust and partners to run sessions in the heart of Portsmouth communities.
HampshireLive newsletter: We bring the stories to you
Signing up to the HampshireLive newsletter means you'll receive our daily news email.
It couldn't be simpler and it takes seconds - simply press here, enter your email address and follow the instructions.
You can also enter your address at the top of this page in the box below the picture on most desktop and mobile platforms.
Changed your mind? There's an 'unsubscribe' button at the bottom of every newsletter we send out.
Venues include community centres, fire stations and shopping centres with the hope being that residents will seize the opportunity to get a jab if the location is convenient.
Helen Atkinson, director of public health at Portsmouth City Council, said: “It is fantastic news that there are now even more opportunities for people to get their jab at pop-up clinics across Portsmouth.
"We are hugely grateful to Solent NHS Trust, Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service, local businesses, community centres and all of our colleagues, partners and volunteers for their continued support."
Over 300 people took up the offer of a vaccine at pop-up clinics last week and rates of case infections are declining in the city.
But clinicians are still urging people to get their first, second or booster vaccination.
Sarah Malcolm, Solent NHS Trust’s Business and Operational Director of COVID-19 vaccinations, commented : “The offer of a COVID-19 vaccine is the best protection we have against the virus. It is not time-limited and so anyone invited can have the jab – even if they have previously declined and changed their mind.”
A full list of when and where you can get a vaccine at Portsmouth's pop up hubs is listed below:
- Sunday, January 23, 10am – 4pm: Portsmouth Chinese Association (PO2 7LR)
- Wednesday, January 26 and Thursday 27 , 7.15am – 2.45pm: Queen Alexandra Hospital (PO6 3LY)
- Thursday, January 27, 9am - 6pm: Somerstown Central Community Hub (PO5 4JJ)
- Thursday, January 27, 1 – 8pm: Cosham Fire Station (PO6 3BS)
- Saturday, January 29, 10.30am – 4.30pm: Fratton Park (PO4 8RA)
- Saturday, February 5, 11am – 4pm: Paulsgrove Community Centre (PO6 4JB)
- Saturday, February 5, 10am – 4pm: St Jude’s Church (PO5 3EL)
Meanwhile, the vaccination centre at St James’ Hospital in Portsmouth continues to offer walk-in appointments for all doses to those over 12 years of age between 8am and 8pm, seven days a week.
Laly’s Pharmacy on Guildhall Walk (PO1 2RY) is also offering the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines to over 16s, Monday to Saturday from 9am – 1pm, and 2pm – 6pm, and from 10am – 2pm on Sundays.
Children aged 12-15 can get a first dose of the vaccine from the day they turn 12 and will need to attend with their parent or guardian, who will be asked to give their consent.
Anyone who has had a positive COVID-19 test will need to wait before getting any dose of the vaccine.

Tropical Storm Leslie..September 4th, 2012 at 6:43 pm by Tony Petrarca under Tony's Pinpoint Weather Blog
We continue to watch Tropical Storm Leslie with some interest. The storm expected to become a hurricane this week, as it moves slowly to the north and near Bermuda by this weekend. After that the storm makes its closest pass to New England (500 miles south and east of Nantucket) by Monday. While that is good news as far as wind and rain, very large swells and beach surf will build this week.
Below is one of the long range computer models we use. The concentric circles offshore show the forecast location of Leslie by Monday morning with respect to New England. Storm does bear watching this week to see if the track shifts closer to our coast. However many of our long range computer guidance point to the storm turning out to sea. Again the main concern for us will be increasing strong beach surf this week, strong rip currents, and for boaters, large swells offshore.……Tony Petrarca

The Status and Position of European Jews at the Beginning of the 20th Century
A Jew is a person belonging to the religion of the Jewish faith. At
the beginning of the 20th century many Jews occupied land in Europe.
The Jews had many different positions and status's depending on which
country they were living in, in some places Jews were welcomed as part
of the community but in other places there were always those who were
suspicious of them. Jews were discriminated (singled out) against by
many different ethnic groups before the 20th century, they were
especially discriminated against by Christians, as they believed Jews
were to blame for the death of Jesus. They were also discriminated
against because of their different traditions and beliefs.
An example of Anti-Semitism (prejudice against the Jews) happened
around the time of 1345AD, at this time they were accused of starting
the Black Death. Jews were also accused of sacrificing children during
certain celebrations. None of this was true but because of those
rumours they were from then on seen as outsiders. Hatred against the
Jews led to violence in England in 1189 and 1290, in Germany in 1345
and in Spain in1492.
A great amount of the Jewish population lived in Russia but many were
forced to live in a part of Russia known as The Pale (which is now in
Poland.) If a Jewish person wished to live outside of The Pale they
needed permission that was almost impossible to gain hold of. People
living in The Pale at this time often became very poor as business
owners could not compete with each other and bring in good enough
profits. Inside Russia Jews had a very low status and were still poor
compared to Gentiles (non-Jews.)
Jews whom lived in The Pale still continued to try and live their life
as normal, they continued to live their different lifestyles and keep
to their different traditions. Jews being different from other people
made them easy targets to persecute against. Jews were often taken to
court on false accusations and even given different laws to abide by,
if these laws were broken they were made to pay out hefty fines. Many
Jews found that bribing local authority and their gentile neighbours
was the only way to live a peaceful life.
Jewish children were discriminated against in their education, this
causing them to be less successful in later life. A Jewish child was
expected to take an entrance test for school at the age of nine, the
test was set out for a gentile the age of thirteen to take. Jewish
children were also sent to non-Jewish schools on very small numbers,
this also making them easy targets for discrimination.
Jews living in France were not sent to live in certain sectors of the
country but were still treated differently and also discriminated
against. They were discriminated against for looking...

Dr. Zein speaks of the relationship between eosinophil count and COVID-19 illness and mortality, especially as it related to inhaled corticosteroid use.
Recent literature on eosinophilia has hypothesized that an absolute eosinophil count >0.15 x103 cells/mL could result in protection against severe COVID-19 illness and mortality in patients with asthma.
In a new study, Joe Zein, MD, PhD, MBA, Department of Pulmonology at the Cleveland Clinic, evaluated the relationship between eosinophils and asthma as well as inhaled corticosteroid use among asthma patients.
The findings, which will be presented at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Annual Meeting (AAAAI) in Phoenix, noted that the association between eosinophilia and improved outcomes in COVID-19 was reliant on inhaled corticosteroid therapy.
“There was always a concern that people with low eosinophils may have issues with COVID-19,” Zein said. The reason is, we know eosinophils are not only there for allergy or for parasitic infection, they also have an antiviral effect…So this is why it was interesting to see whether they also fill have any role and COVID-19, and whether they are associated with better outcomes.”
Zein and colleagues examined a total of 46,397 patients, 19,506 of whom had eosinophilia and 5,011 of who received inhaled corticosteroids. From there, the team conducted a multivariate analysis that associated eosinophilia with lower risk of hospitalization and ICU admission, but only in asthma patients treated with inhaled corticosteroids.
Additionally, the increased risk of worse COVID-19 outcomes in patients with high eosinophils was mitigated by inhaled corticosteroid use. Zein recommended that future randomized controlled studies be conducted to support these findings.
“I think our paper has 2 messages, the first one (is that) your baseline immune profile or immune cell profile will kind of predict your outcome, and people who have a normal eosinophil count somewhere between 100 to 300, (they) have the best outcome,” Zein said. “The second one related to inhaled corticosteroids. We cannot make any recommendations at this time, (but) this was our message: If someone wants to start a study to check for the effect of inhaled corticosteroid in asthma and in COVID-19 they have to adjust or stratify that analysis by eosinophil (count).”

Panel discusses social and ecological impact of discarded food
THE SANTA CLARA
April 9, 2015
One man’s trash may be another’s treasure, but what about his dinner?
The Food and Agribusiness Institute sponsored a panel discussion on food waste, and, as moderator and assistant professor of Environmental Studies and Sciences Department Christopher Bacon put it, “the challenge of creating sustainable food systems and ending hunger in our lifetime.”
The event, “Local Food Security: Recovering Food for Families” as part of a series of lectures on topics related to food, agribusiness, and social and environmental responsibility, was held on Tuesday.
The panelists, including two Santa Clara students, spoke about the gravity of food waste not just across our country, but within local communities, and about how they have worked to combat the pressing matter and create a solution.
According to Wendi Shafir, who works for the Environmental Protection Agency, an astonishing 40 percent of all food is wasted in America.
However, more than just food is squandered — energy and resources are also tossed away in the process.
Food production uses up to 10 percent of the country’s energy and 80 percent of its freshwater, which takes a heavy toll on California in light of the current drought ravaging the state.
Diane Tye Zapata of Second Harvest Food Bank focused on the impact of food waste on the local community and discussed its devastating consequences.
“One in 10 of your neighbors are hungry,” Zapata said. “Forty percent of those people are children. And hunger is (very) invisible in our community. You can be right next to someone who is hungry, who is struggling.”
While much of the panel was dedicated to discussing the problem, it also placed a spotlight on organizations working to cut down on waste, such as Second Harvest Food Bank, Revive Foods and the Santa Clara chapter of the Food Recovery Network.
These organizations gather unsold and unused produce and food and redistribute them to various centers around the Bay Area.
Revive Foods even takes uneaten fruit and uses it to create affordable and healthy food products like jam.
While knowledge and cultural barriers may exist, breaking them down is not impossible.
Zapata addressed several basic steps to reduce food waste and create more sustainable food systems.
“It comes down to three things,” she said. “Educate yourself, other people … Inspire change, talk about where we could be going together. And then advocate on behalf of those people who are struggling, who are hungry.”

American diplomacy has been a force for change, stabilization and regulation outside of its territorial waters since the assumption of the Monroe Doctrine some two centuries ago. Since the doctrine’s implementation, American oversight has grown tremendously; from dominion over the western hemisphere to multi-categorical dominance the world over, American influence has worked its way into billions of non-American lives. As we reach the end of the first half of this decade, challenges to American diplomatic power threaten to shift international dominance from American hands, with the most prominent threat in the Eastern Hemisphere being China.
By asserting Chinese dominance in the South China Sea, President Xi attempts to fulfill the “Chinese Dream.” Drafting a broad set of goals for the Chinese people—the most worrying includes plans for a significantly strengthened Navy—it appears that Xi is looking to overturn American Naval dominance in the South China Sea. China has been looking to push the American Navy out of these waters to enable the Chinese Navy to sail with impunity in their oceanic neighborhood. Hypothetically, this would give China the ability to pressure Taiwan and Japan to capitulate to Chinese demands if they want to use particular sea-lanes (South China Sea) and economic trade routes (Silk Route). China has attempted to assert its power over the region for decades, only to run into the omnipresent shadow of America’s Military.
As tensions rise in the South China Sea, we will see a resurgence of an American naval presence, possibly on par with the Chinese naval incursions of Taiwanese waters in 1996. Nations in the region are looking to renew decrepit or expired naval alliances with the U.S. and create a buffer zone between them and the Chinese Navy. It now stands that China is on track to have a competitive naval force which could challenge American interests and assert a new age of Chinese hegemony in the region by 2020.
Combined China-Russia efforts could now rebuff American dominance in the Asia region. As of October, China and Russia have made a pact to undercut U.S. currency and are instituting economic policies that will allow the two superpowers to trade directly in their respective currencies, making deals backed without inclusion of the U.S. dollar. This pact has arisen amid a shift of Russo-Sino relations, with both countries moving away from the West and signaling a possible shift into a new Eurasian epoch that is enabling a change in Asian diplomatic momentum. Couple this with increased military cooperation between China and Russia and one begins to see a new, mutually beneficial partnership forming in which China and Russia can create political power blocs outside of Western influence and independent of U.S./European sanctioning bodies. With a combined front of Chinese land grabs in the South China Sea and Russian territorial pushes west into the former Eastern bloc, a new alliance of political power is born, one which will continue to push economic and political influence upon weaker neighbors if left unchecked by Western intervention.
The U.S. response to these diplomatic scenarios should be strong, and must be levied within the decade. With rising tensions in the South China Seas requiring a large American Naval response, coupled with rising Russian imperialism in the east, U.S. Diplomatic efforts will take a very different turn in the latter half of the 2010s. U.S. policy must slow Chinese expansion into the South China Sea while keeping international shipping lanes open for business and unmolested by Chinese Naval battle groups. Policy makers need to address the growing threat of Russian movement into the Middle East and Eastern Europe, minimizing Russian involvement in Ukraine and other conflicts that involve the U.S. and allied security interests.
Overall, the United States must take a more aggressive approach in international policy and conflict prevention/intervention if it aims to keep its dominance on the world stage in the latter half of this decade.

Readers will love meeting Natsumi, the little spirited girl who sometimes is MORE than a bit spirited! This effective marriage of Lendroth's well-plotted story and Illustrator Buriss's brightly designed drawings will surely have readers asking for multiple tellings. A true delight!
— From Staff Picks by Maureen
Another picture book favorite! Natsumi is very used to getting told by her family that she does things with too much vigor: she is too loud, or she is doing things too much, or too hard, or too wild… No one seems to see this as a strength, except for her grandfather, who guides her to a hobby that she was born for, where she can be as loud and as wild as she wants. Natsumi is a perfect story about how there is something perfect for each of us, and to stay true to yourself until you find that!
(Picture Book) - reviewed by Isabel
— From Staff Picks by Isabel
Natsumi is small but full of big exuberance, and puts her girl-power to good use when she discovers a Japanese tradition as energetic as she is.
When Natsumi's family practices for their town's Japanese arts festival, Natsumi tries everything. But her stirring is way too vigorous for the tea ceremony, her dancing is just too imaginative, and flower arranging doesn't go any better. Can she find just the right way to put her exuberance to good use?
This heartwarming tale about being true to yourself is perfect for readers who march to their own beat.
About the Author
Susan Lendroth combined her daughter's often over-the-top curiosity and exuberance with her fascination with an all-girl taiko drumming group she saw on a trip to Japan to create Natsumi's story. She lives in Sierra Madre, California.
Priscilla Burris graduated from The Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, studying Illustration, Design and Merchandising. Since then, she's illustrated several children's books. priscillaburris.com / @priscilladesign / facebook.com/Priscilla.Burris
★ "A joyful experience from beginning to end . . . Natsumi [is] a girl with lots of energy and spunk who throws herself into everything, while Burris portrays her in joyous action. The multigenerational nature of the family adds to the warmth of the story." —Booklist, starred review
"A whirlwind of energy, Natsumi often hears the words, "Not so fast" or "hard" or "loud" from her family. When she worries her boisterous actions always lead to mistakes, her grandfather finds the perfect outlet: taiko. On stage, Natsumi pounds the large, barrel-shaped drums—their thundering boom an extension of her enthusiastic spirit. Like Kevin Henkes with his water pistol-toting Lilly, Lendroth offers a charming character who defies traditional gender associations." —Kirkus Reviews
"Lendroth weaves cultural notes through her story, paying attention to traditional arts and the family's connections to the village . . . [A]t the festival, the family is delighted to see Natsumi among the taiko drummers, where her enthusiasm is welcomed . . . Those interested in Japan will be drawn to this, as will those who know someone who's a little over the top." —Publishers Weekly
"A little girl with a big personality finds the perfect way to channel her energy in this cheerful picture book . . . . [T]his book presents a positive introduction to traditional arts such as tea ceremony and flower arranging, and has a great deal to offer in its affirming message about being oneself." —School Library Journal
Fantasy fans rejoice! Here's an emotional, earthy fantasy world where 2 orphan sibling shapeshifters are consigned to help royalty discover a cure to a deadly disease. Instead, finding eminent war, diminished magical beings, giants, stardust and perhaps, love. What more could you ask for in this high action, strong series opener for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Marie Lu.

Researchers announce they may have discovered the first exomoon
01 Aug 2017
A team of exoplanet-hunters announced they may have detected a moon orbiting an exoplanet for the first time. According to commentators it is hard enough to reliably spot exoplanets given the observations are based on tiny flickerings in a star. The flickers from moons are even tinier.
The exoplanet in question is Kepler-1625b that Columbia University's Alex Teachey and David Kipping and citizen scientist Allan Schmitt observed and according to the abstract of their paper, it is scheduled for Hubble Space Telescope observations.
According to Science Magazine, the team was hoping to hold back their findings until after they had taken a look with Hubble.
However, according to Teachey writing for Scientific American, keeping their heads down might have been worse: ''we're not just trying to save ourselves from embarrassment; the announcement and subsequent retraction of potentially ground-breaking results has the effect of eroding public trust in science over time, and we are chiefly concerned with not contributing to that problem.''
He continues, ''we worried that getting the public excited about this object before we really know much of anything for sure is just bad for science''.
According to commentators it will be some time before the trio get their Hubble time and decide whether or not they have found an exomoon.
Kepler-1625b is at a distance of 4,000 light-years from the earth. It is a gas giant exoplanet of the star Kepler-1625.
''It would be a pretty big deal if this exomoon candidate turns out to be real, because it would be the first of its kind, and moons stand to tell us quite a bit about our solar system and other star systems,'' Teachey told Fox News via email.
''This could provide vital clues about how star systems form and evolve,'' he added.
According to the BBC, the exomoon may be the size and mass of Neptune, and is circling a planet about the size of Jupiter, but with 10 times the mass.

BRADENTON — The Bradenton Area Convention & Visitors Bureau has taken steps in a new direction to bring tourists to Manatee County.
Working with new agency of record Aqua Marketing & Communications Inc., the CVB plans a marketing push to promote name recognition of Bradenton and to highlight regional assets such as the barrier islands of Longboat Key and Anna Maria Island.
It involves a new tagline, URL and logo set to launch in October, as well as a campaign including print advertising, television and social media.
Bradenton is not a bustling major city, but it does offer the “attractions without the distractions,” said CVB Executive Manager Debbie Meihls.
Rather than redefine its audience, the CVB seeks to speak more directly to its current audience, which has an average age of 45 and an average household income of $100,000 plus, she said.
Central to the effort is positioning the name Bradenton at the forefront.
“Bradenton Area Convention Center” is the new name of “Manatee Convention Center” and www.bradentongulfislands.com, the new URL, replaces www.annamariaisland-longboatkey.com.
The name of the CVB, which includes Bradenton, will remain the same.
“[Our goal] now with the clear messaging is to reach people even quicker,” Meihls said. “They will know Bradenton. We are giving them a better map to get to us.”
Leaders of area tourist attractions said that Bradenton would benefit from becoming a better-known name.
Before now, Bradenton’s name recognition has not been as strong as Clearwater-St. Petersburg or Sarasota, said Brynne Anne Besio, executive director of the South Florida Museum.
From the Bradenton Riverwalk project to the Village of the Arts, that’s changing, she said. “Its name is being elevated as a place to go see.”
A natural and cultural museum, the South Florida Museum is home to Snooty, a famous 64-year-old manatee.
The museum’s audience closely mirrors that of the region.
“It’s clear that we get a good visitor market, which makes sense because we are part of the island traffic,” Besio said.
Aqua steps in
The CVB, through its marketing plan, aims to maximize the destination’s “visitation potential,” said Aqua President Dave Di Maggio.
Prior to inking a deal with Aqua as agency of record in July, the CVB hired Aqua on a research and rebranding project in August 2011.
Aqua spent nine months putting together a plan to rebrand. It was an “in-depth” process, Di Maggio said, that drew upon numbers from Tampa data research firm The Klages Group and a thorough examination of the destination’s place in the market.
“Once we determined they needed to re-brand, we went through a formal process of rebranding. It meant refining where they would sit in the marketplace, who their competitors were and what the message should be,” Di Maggio said.
The CVB revealed the results of the rebranding effort on Sept. 12.
That day the CVB hosted tours of the convention center, which has undergone a renovation of roughly $6.5 million.
The renovated convention center is a gateway to the small meetings business, another area with room for growth in Manatee County.
Aqua Marketing & Communications Inc., based in St. Petersburg, inked a four-year contract to be agency of record for the Bradenton Area Convention & Visitor’s Bureau in July.
Aqua replaces Insight Strategies Inc., based in Fort Myers.
Aqua was one of three finalists after a national search, along with Paradise Advertising & Marketing of St. Petersburg and Noise of Milwaukee, Wis.
The advertising agreement, which includes funds to be expended by Aqua on the behalf of the CVB, is for $400,000 in the first year.

Preclinical safety assessment services are conducted to determine the degree to which your drug candidate will be tolerated. Initial evaluation includes determination of the maximum tolerated dose for single and repetitive administration based on route and schedule of interest, which is key for further pre-clinical evaluation of drug candidates.
Buffalo BioLabs offers a range of non-GLP rodent toxicology services in mouse and rat to assist in your preclinical drug development program.
Acute, subacute, subchronic, and chronic toxicity testing is performed as single or repetitive dosing for the determination of maximum tolerated dose (MTD), No Observable Effect Level (NOEL), and optimal dosing schedule.
Multiple routes of administration are available, including:
Necropsy is performed upon request to record gross morphological changes at the conclusion of the in-life portion of an animal study. Tissue collection can be performed from simple snap frozen methods to specialized collections (e.g., organ perfusion, bodily fluid (e.g., blood, urine, feces, ascites), formalin fixed). Routine services for tissue trimming, embedding, preparation of slides of paraffin- or cryo-sections, and H&E and custom IHC are available.
Buffalo BioLabs offers traditional toxicologic pathology services from diligently trained and experienced technicians careful to adhere to all SOPs and study protocols and ensure all samples are labeled, catalogued, and properly stored for additional evaluation or shipment to the Sponsor.
PK/PD studies can help you better understand the in vivo response to your drug candidate or how your drug is processed. Various routes of administration, dose schedules, and collection schedules are available as well as method development and sample analysis.
In Vitro Toxicity
In vitro toxicity assays can measure cytotoxicity, viability, and proliferation as an early indicator of cell health in response to the presence or absence of toxic properties of drug candidates. In vitro assays can save time and money by enabling the investigator to eliminate toxic compounds early in drug development, without the use of research animals, and help to avoid late stage failures. Additionally, these types of assays can aid in the evaluation and potential optimization of drug concentration ranges as they relate to toxicity.
Cytotoxicity/ Cell Viability/Proliferation Assays
Cytotoxicity or cell viability assays and proliferation assays can be used with a panel of cell lines to assess a drug’s effect on cell viability and growth. Dose-response assays enable the determination of the IC50/LC50/EC50, which provides an indication of the strength of the effect on cells and allows the ranking of compounds when a panel of candidates are evaluated. These assays can examine the number of cells, cell proliferation, pr0liferation rates, and live/dead ratios using a number of readouts, and can determine the specificity of the effect for particular cell types (e.g., cancer versus normal). Various readouts are available. Please contact us for details!
Colony Forming Assays / Clonogenic Assays
Unlike cytotoxic assays that provide an aggregate readout of all proliferating cells and cell types within a culture, clonogenic assays can be used to evaluate the survival and proliferation of cells based on the ability of a single cell to grow into a colony in the presence of the toxic substance. Clonogenic assays are often applied to oncology research to understand the effect of drugs or radiation on proliferating tumor cells. In addition to assessing changes in proliferation, changes in differentiation potential in response to stimulatory, inhibitory or toxic agents can also be addressed through morphological assessment. Individual colonies can be isolated from the cell population for genomic or phenotypic analysis.
Ex Vivo Peripheral Blood Nucleated Cell Assays
Toxic agents are sometimes detrimental to blood cell populations (e.g. neutropenia). By performing cytotoxicity assays with freshly prepared PBNCs, we can determine whether drug candidates adversely affect critical blood cell parameters. In addition, the effects of drug candidates on specific cytokine levels can be explored.

Should I worry about papilloma?
Papillomas are benign neoplasms. This means that they do not grow aggressively and do not spread throughout the body.
Overgrowths are formed only in certain types of tissues, although these tissues are found throughout the body. Papillomas are often known as warts and warts when they reach the skin. They can also form on the surface of moist tissues lining the internal parts of the body, for example, in the intestines or respiratory tract.
The surfaces on which papillomas are found are called epithelium. For example, the skin epithelium is the top layer of flat cells.
The papilloma forms an outgrowth in the form of a nipple. Warts and warts on the skin have a familiar appearance, although they come in different shapes and sizes.
What is papilloma?
Papillomas are noncancerous tumors that grow outward, which can cause problems in some places. They do not spread and are not aggressive.
However, make sure you get a clinical opinion about a coma or skin lesion. If the lump is a more severe type of coma, it is important to intervene early.
Another reason for receiving medical care is that papillomas can cause complications or discomfort, and sometimes require additional treatment, even if these problems are neither malignant nor life-threatening.
Although papillomas themselves are not malignant, they are associated with a higher risk of developing cancer. For example, women who have received treatment for multiple breast papillomas may be monitored in case cancer also occurs.
Human papillomavirus is the most common sexually transmitted infection. Most sexually active men and women are exposed to the virus at some point in their lives.
The virus is spread in the United States, and about 14 million new cases of human papillomavirus (HPV) are reported each year.
There are different types of HPV. Some can lead to genital warts, while others can cause some types of cancer. Every year, about 19,400 women and 12,100 men in the United States suffer from HPV-related cancer. Vaccines can protect against infection.
In this article we will explain what HPV is, how it is transmitted between people, what symptoms can occur, as well as information about treatment, vaccines and prevention.
HPV may not cause symptoms at once, but they can appear years later. Some types can lead to warts, while others can cause cancer.
Common symptoms of some types of HPV are warts, especially genital warts.
Genital warts may appear as a small bump, cluster of bumps, or stem-like protrusions. They commonly affect the vulva in women, or possibly the cervix, and the penis or scrotum in men. They may also appear around the anus and in the groin.
They can range in size and appearance and be large, small, flat, or cauliflower shaped, and may be white or flesh tone.
Other warts associated with HPV include common warts, plantar, and flat warts.
- Common warts - rough, raised bumps most commonly found on the hands, fingers, and elbows.
- Plantar warts - described as hard, grainy growths on the feet; they most commonly appear on the heels or balls of the feet.
- Flat warts - generally affect children, adolescents, and young adults; they appear as flat-topped, slightly raised lesions that are darker than normal skin color and are most commonly found on the face, neck, or areas that have been scratched.

Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists newfound ally Diana Prince to face an even greater threat. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to recruit a team to stand against this newly awakened enemy. Despite the formation of an unprecedented league of heroes — Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and the Flash — it may be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Growing up a big DC Comics fan, Green Lantern specifically, and after waiting what felt like eternity for this film I’m glad I can say that I liked it.
They gave us just enough back story for all the hero’s we’re getting to see for the first time. How they came to be and where it is they came from, without moving away too much from the story at hand. What was even better for me is that part of those back stories confirmed some of the rumors I had heard… and I REALLY liked that. Watching this team come together and become friends and then that friendship helping make what has been a dark movie series into a much lighter one with the comedic aspect.
The only real problem I had with this film, and I can be really picky about this, was the CGI (Computer Generated Images). At times it seemed like way too much and made certain scenes not look believable. But with what they were trying to create I guess using a sound stage was better than using an actual location.
Personally I don’t think this one is better than Wonder Woman, but much better than BvS and I will be seeing it again. As far as the average movie goer, I think they’ll like it as well and for fans of these DC legends I think this is A Must See Movie.
Stay for the secret scene at the end of the credits.

Matt Talbot Kitchen and Outreach, which has long served hot meals to the homeless during the day, will soon offer them something warm at night, too.
The nonprofit announced Monday its role in an ambitious plan to end homelessness in Lincoln -- finding and renting apartments for 18 chronically homeless individuals and families, who are often battling addiction and mental illness.
Matt Talbot will take what it calls a no-questions-asked, housing-first approach, meaning it won’t require drug or alcohol testing, or even a commitment to abstain. The goal is to get someone a permanent home first, and then provide the services they need after, said Susanne Blue, Matt Talbot’s executive director.
The chronically homeless can better deal with their problems from a safe and stable home, she said.
“How can you work on your recovery without having a place to rest your head at night?”
Matt Talbot hopes to find and fill the 18 one- and two-bedroom apartments in the next six months, but its initiative to end homelessness in Lincoln started more than a year ago, said Eric Dinger, a Matt Talbot board member.
The nonprofit had been successful in feeding the hungry, and providing outreach services, and had amassed an army of about 1,200 volunteers.
But Dinger and others -- including Matt Talbot directors and staff, city officials, educators, business leaders and the Lincoln Homeless Coalition -- wanted to see how they could move Matt Talbot forward.
They formed a team, and they heard about other cities that had claimed to end homelessness.
They liked the sound of that. “Man, that’s a cool thing to say: ‘We’ve ended homelessness,’” Dinger said.
It doesn’t mean homelessness goes away; rather, it means a city has more permanent beds available than it does chronically homeless people.
You have free articles remaining.
Lincoln isn’t there yet. At the end of September, there were 110 permanent housing beds -- all of them always full -- but still 143 chronically homeless, according to Matt Talbot.
“These are folks who are in the most difficult situations,” said Jeff Chambers, director of UNL’s Center on Children, Families and the Law. They’re also the most difficult to find housing for, he added.
Matt Talbot will use an annual $200,000 federal Housing and Urban Development grant to try to change that. It hired a housing locator to work with landlords to find available apartments, Blue said, and hopes to fill the first few units by the end of the year.
“The biggest challenge is finding affordable apartments,” she said. “Definitely there’s a need, but we need people willing to take a few risks on clients.”
Matt Talbot will pay the rent indefinitely, she said. And it will build a contingency fund to help protect landlords, paying them for damage to their property or for outstanding utility bills, for instance.
“We step up, clean it all up, make things right for the landlord,” Blue said.
The type of housing Matt Talbot is offering, called permanent supportive housing, is the most effective solution for reducing future homelessness, Chambers said. Among 46 people who moved out of permanent supportive housing in Lincoln, 39 had not returned to homelessness after two years.
That’s 85 percent, he said: “A tremendous success.”
Matt Talbot won’t be alone in its efforts. At Monday’s announcement, Region V Services housing specialist John Turner said his agency would provide 60 permanent supportive housing units over the next three years.
Add to those CenterPointe’s 30 beds, and Lincoln will be 108 homes closer to ending homeless.
“We believe it’s possible,” Blue said. “And we have to. It’s that hope that keeps us going.”

Prepare and Format Your eBook Files
The formatting of your book is incredibly important and this step is fairly involved, so don’t expect to get it done successfully on the first try or in a single day’s time.
You will find that different distribution channels require different formats, which can be a real struggle when trying to ensure that your text displays correctly across all devices. This is important and you must test your ebook before making it available to purchase, or risk losing your formatting and having your text appear garbled and mutilated on different reading devices.
The formatting will likely need to be different for each site you use to self-publish your books. What looks great in print may not be readable on a Kindle device, and the same PDF file you upload to Lulu may look awful in your Createspace version.

In 1939, she moved to Cuba, the place she studied briefly at the University of Havana, and later went to New York City, the place she worked as a journalist till her demise in 1953. She was honored posthumously in 1987 by the University of Puerto Rico – Humacao Campus, which granted her an Honorary Doctorate in Humanities.
They additionally introduced what grew to become the everyday dances of Puerto Rico such as the Bomba and the Plena, which are likewise rooted in Africa. African girls also contributed to the event puerto rican women be like of Puerto Rican delicacies that has a powerful African affect. The melange of flavors that make up the everyday Puerto Rican cuisine counts with the African touch.
Therefore, the Royal Decree of Graces of 1815 was printed in three languages, Spanish, English and French. Those who immigrated to Puerto Rico were given free land and a “Letter of Domicile” with the condition that they swore loyalty to the Spanish Crown and allegiance to the Roman Catholic Church. After residing in the island for 5 years the settlers had been granted a “Letter of Naturalization” that made them Spanish subjects.
Traits Of Puerto Rican Girl
In textbooks, she’s often remembered as an alcoholic due to her premature demise, which was credited to cirrhosis, a reflection of a nasty double standard in the way girls are criticized for their addictions. But the role girls have performed in Latin American history cannot be missed if we need to establish a more diverse and equal area for all individuals to see themselves mirrored of their country’s stories. And Puerto Rico – a US territory that has at all times existed in it personal cultural spectrum – has a history of repeating those self same patriarchal patterns. Among the notable women concerned in politics in Puerto Rico are María de Pérez Almiroty, who began her profession as an educator and in 1936, turned the primary woman to be elected senator in Puerto Rico. In 1938, she served as Acting chief of the Liberal Party upon the death of the party president Antonio Rafael Barceló. That same 12 months Josefina Barceló Bird de Romero, the daughter of Antonio Rafael Barceló, turned the first Puerto Rican lady to preside a political celebration within the island when she was named president of the Liberal Party.
And it is sad to add that part of the struggle is against different girls upholding the established order. Today, when the now-defunct Partido Nacionalista is nicely known, many bear in mind its major chief Pedro Albizu Campos, who the United States authorities imprisoned and tortured till his demise. But the battle for Puerto Rican independence within the mid-20th century included many women like Lolita Lebrón and Blanca Canales, who have been simply as instrumental as Albizu Campos was. History isn’t short on patriarchal bias, and books are clear proof of that. While pages are filled with principally white men, who are called “heroes” and “founding fathers,” girls are often overlooked of the history lessons. Their accomplishments are generally even credited to their spouses or to a gaggle of male colleagues, diminishing the contributions of ladies just as qualified as their male counterparts.
Rios Versace wrote and edited for varied newspapers around the globe, together with places such as Guam, Germany, Wisconsin, and South Dakota, and publications such the Armed Forces Star & Stripes and Gannett. During World War II, Julita Ross entertained the troops together with her voice in “USO exhibits” . Some Puerto Rican girls who served within the navy went on to turn out to be notable in fields exterior of the army. Among them are Sylvia Rexach, a composer of boleros, Marie Teresa Rios, an author, and Julita Ross, a singer. Another was Lieutenant Junior Grade María Rodríguez Denton, the primary lady from Puerto Rico who became an officer within the United States Navy as a member of the WAVES.
While similarities of breast most cancers experiences exist within Latin subgroups, aspects experienced by Puerto Rican women might be unique to them. Unique parts of a lived expertise in a particular group may be influenced by sociocultural norms, behaviors, and beliefs. Katharine McCormick and Margaret Sanger set out to enhance women’s lives by way of “birth control,” a phrase Sanger coined. The eldest daughter of 13 siblings, Julia de Burgos is thought to be one of the best poets of Puerto Rico, publishing greater than 200 poems. Her works rely heavily on feminism, social justice, as properly as personal struggles, patriotism, and the social struggle of the oppressed. Apart from her career as a poet, she was an activist who joined the Nationalist Party of Puerto Rico in 1936. In 2012, Congress took actions that would put the future of Puerto Rico’s political standing to a preferred vote on the island.

PUCO and Duke Energy would both be satisfied with a $22.6 million increase in the utility provider’s yearly Ohio revenue
Columbus, Ohio – Clearly, this non-binding agreement is a compromise that demonstrates both PUCO’s technical team and Duke Energy’s own satisfaction with a $22.6 million increase in the power provider’s annual Ohio income.
Ohio Partners for Affordable Energy; Ohio Energy Group; People Working Cooperatively, Inc.; Retail Energy Suppliers Association; Walmart Stores East & Sam’s East; One Energy Enterprises; Nationwide Energy Partners; and Citizens Utility Board of Ohio are also signatories supporting the pact.
However, the agreement has not been signed by other intervenors.
The Ohio Consumers’ Council [OCC] has not signed on. Matt Schilling, a PUCO spokesman, stated that the city of Cincinnati had also not signed the agreement.
The Journal-News earlier stated that the OCC had formally recommended that PUCO “allow a rate drop (rather than an increase) of at least $1.4 million for Duke’s customers.”
Merrilee Embs, a spokesperson for the OCC, recently defined the agency as the “official state advocate for Ohio utility consumers” and restated the agency’s stance that now is not a good time to raise rates.
“The Ohio Consumers’ Counsel, the state’s advocate for residential utility customers, did not find the resolution acceptable for Duke’s home electric customers,” Embs wrote in a statement. With rising energy costs, inflation, and persistent pandemic issues, now is not the time to increase Ohioans’ electric bills.
Schilling stated that the absence of the OCC from the signature list is particularly significant and casts doubt on what the eventual decision of the five PUCO regulatory commissioners may be.
Notably, this agreement and any stipulation agreement are non-binding and somewhat extracurricular, but it is a regular and crucial stage in the lengthy process of an Ohio utility provider obtaining formal approval of a rate hike. Schilling referred to it as an additional commission “recommendation.”
Schilling stated that the evidentiary hearing must still occur, but the stipulation agreement speeds up the process and provides the commissioners with a more solid starting point than they would have had without the agreement.
“Those who oppose this settlement still have their day in court and the opportunity to present their case,” Schilling added. And, they may convince the commission.
It also affects the emphasis of the hearing, according to Schilling. Instead of needing to reach a compromise between $55 million and $15 million, the commission can now hear from opposing parties such as the OCC and assess if the stipulation agreement is equitable.
“Without a settlement, you’re basically battling against the company’s application, but in this case, they’ve reached an arrangement with a number of stakeholders,” Schilling explained. It is not everything the utility requested, nor is it as low as the PUCO staff report submitted earlier this summer.
The evidentiary hearing will be held at the PUCO’s Columbus office on October 3 at 10 a.m. and will be open to the public.

Maureen Hoock, as part of MSP 2.0, looks at “white privilege” as it relates to the culture of the United States. She uses Blessed Chaminade’s Five Silences and Marianist mindfulness as avenues to draw one to greater empathy and understanding for the need for a true discipleship of equals in modern culture.
Mary Snyder, as part of MSP 2.0, examines life lessons that shape her thinking related to social justice and the need for "nonviolent communication" in today's society. Key to her examination is the practice of Blessed Chaminade's concept of "silence of passion" and the need for dialogue in today's society.
In “Marianist Martyr—Blessed Jakob Gapp, SM,” Marianist Brothers Martin McMurtrey and Herbert Janson capture the essence of a man who defied Nazi Germany through his words and actions. Blessed Gapp’s story is rooted in an unshakable conviction of always living the Gosepl.
In "The Hurricane of Racism," Ted Cassidy, SM, describes the nature of racism and presents a method to go about changing it. Despite the fact that racism strongly seeks to maintain power, through strong leadership a person or group can bring about a change.
Father David Fleming, former Superior General of the Society of Mary, muses and expounds on key questions of contemporary Marianist life, but always through the magnifying lens of Blessed Chaminade’s quest for a “new fulcrum.” Father Fleming’s work contains 10 essays covering topics pertaining to Marianist education, spirituality, leadership, mixed composition, and identity.
Laura M. Leming, FMI, a sociologist at the University of Dayton and a Marianist Sister, highlights Marie Thérèse's "best practices" of social ministry in relation to this Marianist Founder's work with former sex workers at the Miséricorde.
