Gov. Ron DeSantis has asked the Florida Supreme Court to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate adverse events connected to the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines manufactured by Pfizer Pharmaceuticals and Moderna, Inc.
DeSantis announced his request for the grand jury during a roundtable event on COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Accountability on Dec. 13. Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo and seven other physicians, researchers, and public health experts also took part in the event.
“Healthcare professionals should always communicate the risks of a medical intervention to their patients in a manner that is clinically appropriate and meets standards of ethical practice,” Ladapo said. “President Biden and Big Pharma have completely prevented that from happening – it is wrong.”
Specifically, the petition seeks the grand jury on grounds that mRNA vaccinations carry risks, including acute cardiac injuries, encephalitis, appendicitis, shingles, and other conditions, and that Pfizer and Moderna encouraged the vaccine’s use despite the risks.
“Florida law prohibits fraudulent practices, including the dissemination of false or misleading advertisements of a drug and the use of any representation or suggestion in any advertisement relating to a drug that an application of a drug is effective when it is not,” the petition said. “Questions have been raised regarding the veracity of the representations made by the pharmaceutical manufacturers of COVID-19 vaccines, particularly with respect to transmission, prevention, efficacy, and safety. An investigation is warranted to determine whether the pharmaceutical industry has engaged in fraudulent practices.”
In response, Pfizer said the use of the vaccines has been authorized worldwide based on data relative to their “quality, safety, and efficacy.”
“Over the course of this deadly pandemic, mRNA vaccines have saved hundreds of thousands of lives, tens of billions of dollars in health care costs, and enabled people worldwide to go about their lives more freely,” the company said in a written statement. “As of November 27th, 2022, we have delivered 4.3 billion vaccines to 181 countries and territories in every region of the world.”
No one from Moderna was available to comment on DeSantis’ petition.
Also, during the Roundtable Event, DeSantis announced the establishment of the Public Health Integrity Committee to assess federal public health recommendations and guidance to ensure that Florida’s public health policies are tailored to Florida’s communities and priorities.
Ladapo will oversee the seven-member Committee.
Finally, based on autopsy results, the state will collaborate with the University of Florida to compare research with studies done in other countries connected to the sudden deaths of those who received the COVID-19 vaccine in Florida.

Night blindness is also called nyctalopia. It's a type of vision impairment. People with night blindness experience poor vision at night or in dimly lit environments. It is not a disease in itself, but rather a symptom of an underlying problem, usually a retina problem.
What Causes Night Blindness?
A number of eye conditions can cause night blindness, including:
- Nearsightedness or blurred vision when looking at faraway objects.
- Cataracts or clouding of the eye's lens.
- Retinitis pigmentosa, which occurs when dark pigment collects in your retina and creates tunnel vision.
- Vitamin A Deficiency
- Zinc Deficiency
- Dry Eyes
Are the Symptoms of Night Blindness?
The sole symptom of night blindness is difficulty seeing in the dark. You're more likely to experience night blindness when your eyes transition from a bright environment to an area of low light, such as when you leave a sunny sidewalk to enter a dimly lit restaurant. You're likely to experience poor vision when driving due to the intermittent brightness of headlights and streetlights on the road.
How can I Prevent Night Blindness?
You can't prevent night blindness that's the result of birth defects or genetic conditions, such as Usher syndrome. You can, however, properly monitor your blood sugar level and eat a balanced diet to make night blindness less likely.
Orange colored foods are excellent sources of vitamin A, including:
- Sweet potatoes
- Butternut squash
What are the Treatment Options for Night Blindness?
The treatment will depend on its causes.
- Nutrient deficiency (Vitamin A and Zinc) is the easiest to treat.
- If the cause is cataract, you can go for cataract surgery to remove the clouded lens and replace it with artificial intraocular lens. Vision is usually dramatically improved after surgery.
- For dry eye syndrome, lubricate your eyes with artificial tear drops as they provide instant relief. Just make sure that they are without preservatives.
- Diabetic retinopathy can be prevented with tight control over blood sugar, active lifestyle and good dietary habits.
- As for retinitis pigmentosa, unfortunately there are no treatments available. Thankfully, new research is showing that vitamin A might have a slowing effect on the progression of this eye disease. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult an ophthalmologist.
I am having specs but since last 2 month sometimes occasionally I am not able to read everything look blur thru specs. I had tested eyes 2 months back. My age is 35, male.
Mujhe jyada TV dekhne ke karan +1 point ka chasma lag gaya hai. Mai jaldi chasma utarne ke liye kya karu. Please tell me what should I do.
I have two deep lines under both my eyes. I am just 25 it makes me look tired as if I have been crying all night. Also when I wake up my eyes are puffy. I drink proper water do not even touch coffee do not smoke or drink. I eat healthy only fruits and salads. I am also suffering from hair loss on crown and top of head. I am ageing at such a young age. Can you please tell me what might be the problem.

Hong Kong: Two of the past week’s most sensational stories in Hong Kong – a Kowloon Bay gunman who shot a neighbour before committing suicide, and the marital woes of actress Lee Sinje and director Oxide Pang – took a surprising twist when they turned out to be related.
The gunman, Li Tak Yan, is the father of Liddy Li, the model reported to be the third party in Lee and Pang’s marriage, said Apple Daily.
Li, a divorced, unemployed 51-year-old, killed a 41-year-old mechanic on Saturday night, locked himself in his home and had a six-hour standoff with policemen.
Li, an immigrant from Hunan province, China, finally shot himself in the mouth on Sunday.
Later, the police seized a Chinese Black Star pistol and a homemade gun at his flat in Lok Ching House, a rental block in Kai Ching Estate, said Ming Pao Daily News.
Apple Daily, quoting sources, said Li, a former chef, had to change jobs after he was robbed and sustained a hand injury.
In 2011, when he was living in an interim housing estate in Yuen Long, he assaulted a neighbour and was sentenced to one year in jail.
Detectives on the shooting case found that he has a family member called Li Ting, who has the same mobile phone number and date of birth as Liddy, the model photographed kissing Pang last month, said Ming Pao.
Liddy has not commented on the case. Apple Daily spoke to her mother’s neighbours in Cheung Hong Estate in Tsing Yi, who said Li had lived in the neighbourhood with his wife and two daughters before the divorce.
The neighbours confirmed that the older girl is now the model known as Liddy.
Liddy, 26, hit the headlines last week when Pang, 48, was photographed on a date with her at the posh Elements mall in Tsim Sha Tsui.
He and his 38-year-old wife have since said they will face the future “together”. — The Straits Times / Asia News Network

Abstract : Construction of Kenya's Nairobi expressway by Chinese contractor is on track, with the project set to be completed on time, Transport Cabinet Secretary James Macharia said on Wednesday.
NAIROBI, March 31 (Xinhua) — Construction of Kenya‘s Nairobi
expressway by Chinese contractor is on track, with the project set to be
completed on time, Transport Cabinet Secretary James Macharia said on
The expressway is being financed and constructed by the China Road
and Bridge Corporation (CRBC). “We expect the elevated highway, which is
progressing at 60 meters per day from both ends to be completed by
early 2022,” Macharia said in a statement issued in Nairobi after
touring the project on Wednesday.
The project being done links the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport
(JKIA) to Nairobi-Nakuru highway. The progress of the whole project is
up to 33 percent by far.
He said construction of the project is at a critical section of the
northern corridor, which is the main gateway for imports and exports
from the port of Mombasa to neighboring countries such as Uganda and
More than 1,800 local youths have been employed by the contractor.
During the construction, eco-friendly measures have been taken to reduce
noise and dust pollution, and discharge sewage properly, according to
The Nairobi Expressway will comprise both a four-lane and six-lane
dual carriageway with 10 interchanges. “The new highway will also carry
85 percent of all cargo and commuter traffic in surrounding areas,” said

Slide 1 / 5
Major: Illustration and Creative Writing
Genre/Medium: digital art
About the work: This was easily the most labor intensive project I did for my internship, but it was worth the work, as I am satisfied with the end result and learned so much about comic making and digital painting! This piece is a continuation of the work I made for Project 2, where I made a comic page based on a short poem I wrote about Psyche. I had a lot of fun making that comic page and decided I wanted to expand upon it and create a fully resolved mini-comic. However, I redrew the first page, since I felt that I had grown too much as an artist to use it in conjunction with new pages. I still maintained the narrative established in Project 2, though, where my ethereal protagonist explores Psyche’s supposed terrain. The comic’s text is comprised of the remainder of my poem, and I aimed to create a kind of reflective dialogue by pairing it with my illustrations. I think that when we examine Psyche, we can not only learn more about our Earth, but learn more about ourselves: our motivations for exploring the asteroid and the way we think about its physicality can provide insight into humanity’s own psyche.

Last week the Legatum Institute published its report on public opinion in the post-Brexit era with a particular focus on attitudes towards the economy and different economic systems. The report, co-written by Populus head of analytics James Kanagasooriam and based on Populus survey data, underlined the growing reputational challenge faced by corporates.
Put simply, people don’t much like capitalism. Regardless of age or, more strikingly, political affiliation, people tend to associate capitalism with greed, selfishness and corruption. It is no surprise, therefore, that people are also likely to believe that regulation is necessary, again regardless of age or political affiliation.
What should worry corporates is how far people seem prepared to go in policy terms. The survey found widespread support for capping the pay of senior executives and more Government regulation for corporate behaviour, and people were also more likely than not to believe that companies have a responsibility to ensure worker representation at board level. Regardless of the practicability or desirability of such policies, they send out a clear message: people do not feel that big business has got its priorities right.
The events of the last two weeks further evidence the point. Ryanair has been accused of seeking to avoid its legal obligations to thousands of passengers whose flights have been cancelled due to the company’s mismanagement of a change in its holiday system, while Uber has seen its London licence revoked due to criticism of its working practices and allegations it has failed to protect passengers. For those who think that capitalism means businesses putting profit before doing the right thing by customers, employees, and society more broadly, these case studies could hardly be more compelling.
These views have, of course, been recognised by political parties. The Labour party is determined to emphasise negative public opinion towards big business in order to justify its policy agenda, especially when it comes to industries it would like to take back into public ownership. Meanwhile the Conservatives, after their chastening general election performance, are caught between attempting to make the positive case for capitalism while pursuing punitive policies against, for example, energy companies.
The stage seems set, then, for an extremely difficult period for big business. But the picture is not all doom and gloom. When Populus looks beyond broad attitudes towards capitalism and analyses the reputations of individual companies, it becomes clear that the capitalist model doesn’t inevitably lead to negative opinion. Strong brands known for their commitment to good customer care and excellent working practices (for example John Lewis) or for consistently innovating to provide an excellent service (like Google) are able to enjoy excellent reputations regardless of their profit margins. And there are newer companies such as Ovo in the much-maligned energy sector that are making corporate responsibility a point of differentiation rather than a box to be ticked.
The lesson here is that while making money is a must for any business, it seems that consumers are becoming increasingly sensitive to the manner in which those profits are made and the quality of the service being offered. What is more, the public appetite is there to respond to any failure to meet these demands with regulatory intervention. It is therefore more imperative than ever that companies seek to proactively understand and manage their reputations; failure to do so could be very costly indeed.

Sunrise leaders realize they have a money pit on their hands: the city's golf course, recently renovated for $3 million.
In the past decade, Sunrise has spent $8.3 million maintaining Seven Bridges at Springtree Golf Club. The city spent $1.24 million in 2010 managing the greens and will spend $809,000 this fiscal year.
That doesn't include last year's $3 million redesign of the fairways or the $3.9 million spent on a new clubhouse in 2004.
In these tough times, the expense worries Mayor Mike Ryan and some commissioners.
To balance the city's $109 million budget for the fiscal year beginning Oct. 1, Sunrise is using $5 million in reserves. But, based on a plan that won approval Monday, homeowners would continue paying a $139.50 fire fee and a tax rate of $6.05 per $1,000 of assessed property value.
Commissioners will take a final vote on the budget and tax rate on Sept. 22 at 6 p.m.
In previous budget meetings, Ryan has questioned whether the 18-hole golf course, bought by Sunrise in 1974, would ever earn its keep.
Ryan has noted the city is "hemorrhaging" money on the golf course and has worried about future costs. But what are the options?
"We can't sell it," he told the Sun Sentinel. "Who's going to buy it?"
Sunrise is not alone. Other municipal courses are facing a similar plight, struggling to break even in a bad economy with golf on the decline.

For the last month, we've been wondering whether Ohio would truly adopt the NGA/CCSSO Common Core State Standards , or whether the Ohio Department of Education would forge its own path in revising academic content standards so as to meet the June 2010 deadline. The issue was one of timing, as Common Core Standards won't be finalized until January, and this didn't give Ohio enough time to meet its June 2010 mandate.
Given that Fordham gave Ohio a "D+" in our last State of the State Standards report, and that we think the Common Core Standards are substantially better (see our latest report, "Stars by Which to Navigate"), the possibility of Ohio reneging on the Common Core Initiative was worrisome. Emmy wrote on Flypaper:
"What's the Buckeye State to do??? Should the state board of education risk non-compliance with state law and wait for the Common Core work to be finished??? Should state lawmakers revisit the law and extend the deadline for updating the standards??? Are other states in similar predicaments??? If so, what becomes of the Common Core Initiative?"
This week we got our answer, as state education officials announced that Ohio is fully committed to pursuing the Common Core Standards. According to the Columbus Dispatch:
"This decision means the department won't be releasing its own draft standards in English and math this month as planned, because most, and possibly all, of those updates will be scrapped."
(The Ohio Department of Education will release draft standards in science and social studies this afternoon.) Given that the final priorities for Race to the Top allot 70 points to states for the "Standards and Assessments" category, we're glad to see Ohio fully on board with the Common Core. Adopting common standards is worth 40 points alone. (In contrast, accessing and using state data is only worth 5 points, making education a funding a "priority" is only worth 10 points.) Of course, a back of the envelope estimate quickly shows Ohio might lose a larger number of points for "Great Teachers and Leaders" (138 points) or being able to articulate an education reform agenda and get the participation of LEAs (65 points). But we'll save that for another blog. For now, we're happy that Ohio is adopting Common Core Standards.

well known as leaders of the Rationalistic party, although some, like Rothe and Baumgarten, have always been looked upon as prominent representatives of the evangelical school. They all agree, however, upon leaving to every particular congregation the right of choosing its own pastor, no matter what his theological views may be. The congregations are to hold their provincial and national synods, the powers of which are, however, not to interfere with the rights of the individ. ual congregations. Some particulars of the plan are yet involved in considerable obscurity, but in the main it seems to aim at introducing a kind of mixed Congregational and Presbyterian Church Constitution, with a great latitude as to creed, so as to embrace all shades of orthodox as well as Unitarian Churches.
The chief importance of this "Protestant Diet" lies in the fact that it represents the first national organization among the State Churches of Germany, which is sincerely in favor of emancipation of the Churches from the State, and of introducing the era of ecclesiastical Church government. Its design to put an end to the present isolation of the Churches in every particular German state, and to substitute for it a national organization, may likewise lead to important results.
THE NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN ITALY AND THE POPE.-The progressive party of Italy, and the friends of civil and religious liberty all over the world who sympathize with it, have viewed with considerable alarm the opening of negotiations between the government of Victor Emmanuel and the Pope. It was feared that the hope of restoring peace between Church and State might induce the Italian government to make compromises respecting the remainder of the temporal power of the Pope, which would destroy the nation's hope of the ultimate annexation of Rome.
These fears have fortunately proved groundless. The Italian government, it is true, was very anxious to establish peace with the head of the Roman Catholic Church. Its special envoy, Signor Vejezzi, was instructed to show the most conciliatory spirit, and only to
guard against making any concessions which would imply the negation de facto of the existence of the kingdom of Italy. The government was of opinion that the court of Rome, if it really wanted the establishment of amicable relations, could at least not refuse to grant to Italy the minimum of the rights and powers conceded to all the other Catholic governments of the world. It demanded, therefore, in particular the submission of all the papal bulls to the royal exequatur, and the oath of allegiance from the bishops. When the Papal court persisted in refusing these demands, the negotiations were broken off, and the envoy recalled from Rome.
The issue of the negotiations between Italy and Rome has dispelled many fears and raised great hopes for the future. The Italian government has hastened to lay before the world, in the form of a report, addressed by the Minister La Marmora, to the king, a full and official narrative of the whole of the negotiations. At the close of this report the minister says-and the government, by publishing the report, indorses the sentiment-that the day is perhaps not far distant "when the so much desired separation of Church and State will bring with it the complete separation of religious and spiritual from civil interests, to the common benefit of both Church and State." Hitherto none of the larger governments of Europe have yet dared to adopt the principle of separation between Church and State. The example of a powerful state like Italy would prohasten the complete triumph of one of duce a profound sensation, and greatly the fundamental principles of American democracy.
LIBERAL REFORMS.-The government of Spain has for many years been regarded by the ultramontane party as a true model. This reputation it owed chiefly to its loud professions of devotion to the Roman Catholic Church in general, and to the Pope's temporal power in particular. The fact that even this most Catholic of all the gov ernments did not grant to the monastic orders that liberty which they enjoy in the United States and most of the Protestant countries, and that even associations which extend throughout the whole Catholic world, as the Society for
the Propagation of Faith, were barely tolerated in Spain, and therefore unable to strike root, was readily ignored in view of the rigid legislation adopted against Protestantism. It is, therefore, easy to comprehend the disappointment and mortification felt at Rome, and by the ultramontane party throughout the world, at the great change which has recently taken place in Spain. The ultra-conservative ministry has been dismissed, and a new ministry, under the presidency of General O'Donnell, has been appointed, one of the first acts of which has been the recognition of the kingdom of Italy. The Catholic party made the most strenuous efforts to prevent this. In the Cortes the ultramontane members most vehemently protested against it. All the bishops addressed letters to the Queen strongly denouncing such a policy, and some of them in their letters used language which will make them liable to be summoned before the courts. It is gratifying to know that the ministry has resisted all these attempts. The recognition of Italy is already an accomplished fact. The confessor of the Queen, Bishop Claret, one of the most fanatical priests of Spain, and an equally fanatical nun, who was one of the chief advisers of the Queen, have been removed from the court, and the Archbishop of Burgos has been relieved from his position as instructor of the Prince Asturias. The Anglican Bishop of Gibraltar has received permission to visit the resident Englishmen in several of the large cities, to hold religious service for them, and to consecrate Protestant cemeteries.
the right nor to the left in prosecuting the objects they have in view, while Roman Catholic ladies "laugh those to scorn" who would induce them to take active parts in furthering acts of charity and works of educational advancement for the benefit of their poorer and more ignorant fellow-men, women, and children. Dr. Goss deplored the religious destitution that existed in different parts of England, and declared that the churches and chapels of his faith were for the most part deeply encumbered with debt, from the startling sum of £10,000 downward. He also stated, as a proof of the decline of his Church, that in one street in Liverpool, in which were one thousand Roman Catholics, there was only one man who went to church, and only four children who went to school.
PROGRESS OF RELIGIOUS TOLERATION AND OF THE PROTESTANT MISSIONS.-In
Spanish America one country after another is removing from its constitution that odious provision which prohibits the public exercise of any other form of religion than the Roman Catholic. In July the Congress of Chili was occupied with a consideration of Art. 5 of the
Constitution, which is as follows: "The religion of the Republic of Chili is the Roman Catholic, to the exclusion of the public exercise of any other." The debates were lengthy and most animated. The reform side was advocated by the ablest and best men in Congress, and violently opposed by the priests, especially the Jesuits. At length a proposi tion of the government to allow Protestants to exercise their religion in chapels and private edifices, and also to have schools for the education of their children, was adopted by both houses, with the omission, however, of the word "chapel" in the first proposition.
ROMAN CATHOLICISM NOT INCREASING. -A curious testimony that the Church of Rome is not making as great progress in England as has sometimes been reported was recently given by one of The number of Protestants in many the Roman Catholic bishops, Dr. Goss, of of the South American countries, espeLiverpool. In an address to one of the cially in Chili, the Argentine Republic, Catholic congregations of Liverpool he and Brazil, is rapidly increasing in consoundly rated his flock, especially the sequence of immigration. By far the female portion of it, for their apathy, majority of the Protestant immigrants neglect, and indifference in carrying out are Germans; and already each of the works of charity and education. He above three states has flourishing colotold them in pretty plain terms that nies, and even large towns, exclusively Protestant ladies are zealous, hearty, inhabited by Germans.

them, and churches and schools are therefore sadly wanting. Of late, however, some improvements have been noticeable, especially in Brazil. Reports from the Brazilian province of Rio Grande do Sul state that the total German population (Protestant and Catholic) of this province already amounts to fifty thousand, or nearly one third of the aggregate population of the province. The centers of colonization are St. Leopoldo, Porto Alegre, and St. Cruz. largest of these colonies is St. Leopoldo, which in a total population of twentyfive thousand has twenty thousand Germans. They received in 1864, from the supreme ecclesiastical council of Berlin, a pastor. Churches have also been built at St. Cruz, Donna Josepha, and Porto Alegre, all of which congregations have applied to the Supreme Ecclesi
astical Council of Berlin for resident pastors.
Fully as good are the prospects of Protestantism in the Argentine Republic, where the Methodist Episcopal Church has highly flourishing missions. The city of Buenos Ayres has no less than four Protestant churches. The Methodist preachers have the nucleus of a congregation and regular preaching at six places in the province of Buenos Ayres, (besides the capital,) at two in the province of Santa Fé, and at one in the province of Entre Rios. The annual number of immigrants into the Argentine Republic amounts to about twelve thousand, and it is thought that nearly twelve thousand of them are Protestants. Religious toleration is fully secured, and the prospects of Protestantism are therefore brilliant.
ART. VIII.-FOREIGN LITERARY INTELLIGENCE.
AMONG the more important works which Rénan's Life of Jesus have call
ed forth, and the new works on the same subject by Dr. D. F. Strauss, in Germany, belongs one by Professor Sepp, (Roman Catholic,) Professor of History at the University of Munich, and author of a very comprehensive Life of Jesus, in seven volumes. His new work treats of the proofs to be found in the world's history for the truth of the deeds and the doctrines of Jesus, (Thaten und Lehren Jesu mit ihrer weltgeschichtlichen Beglaubigung. Schaffhausen, 1865.)
The Commentary on the Psalms, by Dr. Hitzig, Professor at Heidelberg, (Die Psalmen. Heidelberg, vol. 2, 1865,) has been completed by the publication of
the second volume.
the evangelical Church of Germany, and called forth from the evangelical party a demand for his removal from the posi tion as President of the Preachers' Seminary, has published in defense of his opinions, and of the rights of his party in the evangelical Church, a work entitled "Protestant Freedom, in its Combat with the Ecclesiastical Reaction," (Die Protestantische Freiheit in ihrem gegenwärtigem Kampfe mit der Kirchlichen Reaction. Wiesbaden, 1865.) The work treats fully of the recent Church history of the Grand Duchy of Baden, and may be regarded as an apology of the new, chiefly Rationalistic, organization in Protestant Germany, called the "Protestant Association," on the first General Assembly of which we report more fully in our department of "Religious Intelligence."
Of the first complete edition of the The proceedings of this General Asworks of John Calvin which has been sembly (Verhandlungen des Deutschen begun by Professors Baum, Cunitz, and Protestantenvereins auf dem Ersten ProtesReuss of Strasburg, the third volume tantentage, Elberfeld, 1865) contain a has recently been issued: Corpus Refor-number of important addresses: for exmatorum. Series Altera. Jo. Calvini Opera. Vol. iii. Brunswick, 1865.
Dr. Schenkel, whose Life of Christ has produced so great an excitement in
ample one by Dr. Rothe, on the best means by which members alienated from the Church may be regained to her; and another by Dr. C. Schwarz, (the author of the work on modern
theology,) on "Freedom of Teaching in the Protestant Church, and its Limits."
A new "Life of Jesus," which will attract considerable attention, has recently been announced in Germany, being a posthumous work by the late Chevalier Bunsen, and constituting the ninth work of his Bibel-werk. The standpoint of this work will be similar to that of Schenkel, and will be, like the what Strauss calls the "half" men. latter, a representative publication of
The literary controversy in Germany on the "Life of Jesus" continues to call forth a number of works from both parties. The posthumous work on the subject by Schleiermacher was replied to by Dr. F. Strauss, in a pamphlet called The Christ of Faith and the Jesus of History," ("Der Christus des Glaubens und der Jesus der Geschichte." Tübingen, 1865,) in which he strongly denounces the attempt of Schleiermacher of mediating between the old Christian Churches and the new school as impossible, while in an appendix he passes a similarly severe sentence against the work of Schenkel. Against the latter Strauss has since written a new work entitled "The Half and the Whole," ("Die Halben und die Ganzen." Tübingen, 1865,)|hung. Berlin, 1865.) meaning those that in his opinion are wholly and consistently, and those that are only half and inconsistently combating the old views of the Christian Church concerning the Scriptures and concerning the Life of Jesus. Strauss, of course, regards himself as one of the "whole" men, and Schenkel as a representative of the "half." The party of Schenkel replies bitterly to Strauss in the eighth number of its organ, the Allgemeine Kirchliche Zeitschrift. mutual animosity between the "half" and the "whole" men belongs among the worst specimens of the odium theologicum which the history of theology records. We learn from the above number of the Kirchliche Zeitschrift, tuat a letter written by Strauss in 1839, or four years after he had written his
"The Prophecies of the Prophet Isaiah," (Die Weissagugen des Propheten Jesaia. Berlin, 1865,) is the title of a work by Dr. Hosse. It is to serve as the introduction to a new commentary on the prophet.
Dr. L. Wiese, one of the prominent German writers on educational matters, has issued a new volume on the education of woman. (Ueber weibliche Erzie
"Life of Jesus," when he had been elected Professor of Dogmatic Theology in Zurich, has recently been published, and in this letter still speaks of Christ as "really the son of man, and also the son of God," whose death is "the guarantee of our pardon and salvation, as well as of the bliss and joy which awaits us in the future life." Schenkel calls that rather strange language from a man who four years before had published such radical views on the Life of Jesus, and who now so loudly boasts of his radicalism and his contempt of all the "half" men. Strauss explains the language of his Zurich letter by the fact that at that time he was an adherent of the Hegelian School, and that as such he could use the terms above quoted.
Positivism has found a new champion in M. Alph Leblais, who has published a work on "Materialism and Spiritualism," (Matérialisme et Spiritualisme. Etude de Philosophie Positive. Paris, 1865.) The work is introduced to the public by the present chief of the Positivists, M. Littré, who sharply attacks Professor Janet for his articles against the Positivist school. M. Leblais begins by remarking that two great principles have from the earliest times divided the camp of metaphysicians-the one being represented by Aristotle, the other by Plato. The latter, of course, is thoroughly condemned, while Aristotle is represented as one of the fore
most instructors of mankind. M. Le
blais applies Positivism to the fine arts
Professor Janet has published in book form his able articles in the Revue des Deux Mondes on the chief French representatives of Positivism and of Pantheism-Taine, Rénan, Littré, and Vacherot, (La Crise Philosophique. Paris,
1865.) We have given an account of these articles in our notice of the Revue des Deux Mondes, in a former number of the METHODIST QUARTERLY REVIEW.
Mr. Emile Saisset had proposed to himself as the great work of his life to write a history of Skepticism. He charged, it seems, both theology and science "The Science of the Invisible." (La losophy by denying its ability to estabwith undervaluing the power of phiScience de l'Invisible, Etudes de Psycho-lish the great truths of natural theology, logie et de Theodicie. Paris. 1865,) is the the existence of a personal God, and the title of a new work by Charles Lévêque, Professor at the College de France. The immortality of the soul, and on that account he pronounced both of them guilty of skepticism. The above work contains those portions of the proposed work
volume consists of a lecture on "Lib
erty and Fatalism," two essays originally published in the Revue des Deux Mondes, on the "present condition of the science of the soul," and "Proclus and his God;" and two articles on Dameron and Saisset. In the preface the author states that he desires to serve that philosophy which, for the last sixty years, has been teaching in France the existence of a personal God, the immateriality of the soul, liberty, right, and duty.
Another posthumous work of the late Emile Saisset, on Skepticism, (Sur le Skepticisme. Paris, 1865,) has been published by his brother, Amedéo Saisset. Professor of Philosophy at the Sorbonne,
which the late author had been able to finish. Some of them had appeared before; others are now published for the first time. Among the latter class belongs an article on Enesidemus, the greatest skeptic of antiquity. The most important articles in this volume are one on Pascal and the other on Kant, the latter of which had already appeared in the Revue des Deux Mondes, while the other appears now for the first time. Two other volumes of Emile Saisset have been recently published by his brother in the Bibliothèque de Philosophic Contemporaine, the one entitled l'Ame et la Vie, and the other Fragment et Discours.

Florida Report Findings in Escherichia Coli -->
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Biotech Week -- Research findings on Proteobacteria are discussed in a new report. According to news reporting from Gainesville, Florida, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Laccases are multicopper oxidases that couple the oxidation of phenolic polymers to the reduction of molecular oxygen. While an archaeal laccase has only recently been described (LccA from the culture broth of Haloferax volcanii), this enzyme appears promising for biotechnology applications based on its robust bilirubin oxidase and laccase activities as well as its ability to withstand prolonged exposure to extreme conditions."
The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from the University of Florida, "To further optimize LccA productivity and develop an option for LccA purification from whole cells, the encoding gene was modified through deletion of the twin-arginine translocation motif and N-terminal propeptide, and the modified genes were expressed in Escherichia coli. With this approach, LccA was readily purified (overall yield up to 54 %) from the soluble fraction of E. coli as a 74-kDa monomer with syringaldazine oxidizing activity as high as 33 U mg(-1). LccA proteins prepared from H. volcanii culture broth and the soluble fraction of E. coli cells were compared by ICP-AES, EPR, DSC, CD, and UV-Vis spectroscopy and found to have a similar folding pattern with T (m) values and a rich ?-sheet structure analogous to other multicopper oxidases."
According to the news reporters, the research concluded: "However, in contrast to the H. volcanii-purified LccA, which was loaded with copper, copper was not fully incorporated into the type-I Cu center of E. coli purified LccA, thus, providing insight into avenues for further optimization."
For more information on this research see: Enhanced archaeal laccase production in recombinant Escherichia coli by modification of N-terminal propeptide and twin arginine translocation motifs.

Laboratory Detection of Imipenem or Meropenem Resistance in Gram-negative Organisms
Imipenem and meropenem are carbapenem antimicrobial agents used to treat a variety of serious infections when an organism is resistant to the primary agent of choice. Carbapenems also are used to treat nosocomial and mixed bacterial infections. Resistance to these antimicrobial agents limits therapeutic options.
In general, resistance to these carbapenems is rare. Within a healthcare setting, increases in species-specific carbapenem resistance should be monitored and sudden increases investigated to rule out an outbreak of resistant organisms or spurious test results.
Published reports indicate some resistance in a variety of clinical Gram-negative organisms, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Burkholderia cepacia, Acinetobacter species, Proteus species, Serratia marcescens, Enterobacter species, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia isolates are intrinsically resistant to imipenem.
Resistance to carbapenems occurs either through bacterial production of β-lactamase enzymes that hydrolyze (break down) the antimicrobial agent or through porin changes in the bacterial cell wall that reduce the permeability of the drug into the organism. In some organisms, both mechanisms may be present. DNA coding for enzyme production can be passed from organism to organism via plasmids or can occur through mutation of an existing β-lactamase enzyme. Porin changes arise through mutation.
The level of resistance is determined by the efficiency of the enzyme for hydrolyzing the drug and by the number of resistance mechanisms present in the organism. Organisms can produce more than one hydrolyzing enzyme and may show modifications in more than one porin, producing high-level resistance to the carbapenems (minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] >16 µg/ml). Organisms with decreased susceptibility produced by porin changes alone often have lower MICs (2-8 µg/ml).
Organisms with MICs near interpretation breakpoints have greater potential for reporting errors. For example, isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa often have MICs that are at or near the carbapenem intermediate (8 µg/ml) and resistant (>16 µg/ml) breakpoints (3). Some species, such as Proteus mirabilis, P. vulgaris, and Morganella morganiii, often have MICs (1-4 µg/ml) just below the carbapenem intermediate breakpoint of 8 mg/ml. Most other species of Enterobacterales are very susceptible (≤0.5 µg/ml).
Broth microdilution methods usually detect carbapenem resistance when the tests are performed properly. However, studies have shown false resistance to imipenem in commercially prepared test panels due to degradation of the drug or to a manufacturing problem where concentrations of imipenem were too low (1,2,4,5). When performed properly, disk diffusion and agar gradient diffusion also are acceptable methods for carbapenem testing.
Imipenem degrades easily. Studies suggest meropenem may be more stable than imipenem. However, for either antimicrobial agent, storage conditions of susceptibility panels, cards, and disks must be monitored carefully and quality control results checked frequently. If possible, store supplies containing carbapenems at the coldest temperature range stated in the manufacturer’s directions. An additional test method, such as agar gradient diffusion (i.e., Etest), can be used to verify intermediate or resistant results.
Meropenem is slightly more active than imipenem against Gram-negative organisms. However, the activity is species dependent. Meropenem is a relatively new drug and more studies need to be published before susceptibilities of one carbapenem can be used to predict the other.

|Reviews for The Burden of History|
| Sasayaki chapter 1 . 11/8/2009
Thank you for writing such a wonderful piece. You captured each characters personality perfectly; conveyed places, scenarios and feeling so vividly that this was a pleasure to read.
That it is a Xenogears fanfiction of my favorite characters was a bonus!
Thank you, again, for sharing this!
| Measured chapter 1 . 7/15/2008
I never played Xenosaa. Orz. My childhood was so lacking, it didn't include PSX RPGs at all. However, 0 reviews was a glaring issue, though I assume this fandom is rather...quiet.
Either way, lovelovelove your gen. And style.:3


No Sidney Crosby, no problem.
Not so fast.
Although the Pittsburgh Penguins will be without the face of their franchise when they face the Calgary Flames Saturday at the Saddledome, the hosts know the Eastern Conference club is still a contender.
“You saw how they played without him last year. They were still one of the top teams,” Flames defenceman Mark Giordano said.
“They’re really fast and really aggressive. They get hard on the forecheck. They play a real up-and-down game. They get pucks going from their own zone to the other zone pretty quickly.
“We’ve just got to match their work ethic.”
Even matching the Penguins’ work ethic a year ago might not have been enough for the Flames when they visited Pittsburgh last season before Crosby was sidelined by consecutive concussions.
A missed penalty shot in the first period was all that kept Sid the Kid from scoring the cycle — at even strength, on the powerplay, into an empty net and on a penalty shot — in a 4-1 victory over the Flames Nov. 27.
“It was probably one of the more dominating games I’ve ever watched a player play in the league, seriously,” Giordano recalled. “He was just unbelievable.
“He was unstoppable.”
So in a way, it’s a bit of a relief the Flames don’t have to face arguably the best hockey player in the world. Giordano, though, admits it’s not great for the league that Crosby is still sidelined.
“I think it’s been the biggest news of anything, him being out. And rightfully so. That hurts our game,” Giordano said. “But in saying that, not having to play against him, I don’t want to say it’s a plus, but ... “
But it’s definitely a plus.
Especially when you consider the fact Evgeni Malkin — no slouch himself when talking about the game’s most talented players — seems motivated to rebound from an injury-shortened campaign that followed a couple of disappointing years statistically.
“They’re a team that plays extremely fast. Malkin’s gonna be back, and you look at their defencemen, they move the puck extremely well,” Flames winger Alex Tanguay said of the Pens.
“They’re a skating team. They’re gonna be in your face. They’re gonna be aggressive.”
“He’s a top player,” Giordano said of Crosby. “But they still have a lot of great players over there.”
Malkin’s expected to be joined by Steve Sullivan and James Neal on the top line. Jordan Staal centres the second unit, with Tyler Kennedy and Chris Kunitz on his flanks. Matt Cooke, Pascal Dupuis and Mark Letestu have been skating together, with Joe Vitale, Craig Adams and Arron Asham on the fourth line.
Opening their season against the Vancouver Canucks, the Penguins game Thursday night offered the Flames a sneak peek of the competition for Saturday.
But rearguard Cory Sarich figures it will be the Flames’ play that dictates the outcome Saturday.
“Over the course of last year, we learned that we wait, we play the other team’s speed, read off them, it doesn’t bode well for us,” the defenceman said.
“We need to be pushing the play, pushing our game at them. If we do that, that’ll be the best option for us.”

In case there was any question, the Obamas have officially mastered the art of the family vacation.
As if their Bali tour wasn't drool-worthy enough, Sasha, Malia, Barack, and Michelle spent an afternoon white-water rafting down the Balinese rapids. Can you say #vacationgoals?
According to TMZ, the first family is currently on a 10-day trip to Indonesia, where President Obama will be speaking to the Indonesian congress in the capital city of Jakarta — but the trip seems to be shaping up to be equal parts work and play. The Obamas started their tour on the island of Bali, one of the country's most popular beach destinations, and have reportedly posted up at the luxurious Four Seasons Resort. But considering how much the Obamas love vacation activities (remember that time when the POTUS kitesurfed with Richard Branson?), it's no surprise that they're doing more on their island than just chilling by the pool.
Based on the photo from the rafting trip, Sasha seems to be loving the rapids, while her parents and sister don't seem to be such huge fans. TBD who the other lucky members of their entourage were, but safe to say they'll be telling the story of "that time I went white-water rafting with the Obamas" for a long, long time.
The Obama crew also visited one of Bali's famed rice terraces before they hit up the rapids, TMZ reports. President Obama spent a few years growing up in the Indonesian capital of Jakarta (his mom did research there), so it's no surprise he feels right at home on his own stomping grounds.

Coleman Legion Honors Those Who Gave the Supreme Sacrifice Issue Date: May 31, 2017
Coleman"The Kalbes-Seewald American Legion Post 280 Memorial Day Services were held in the Coleman High School Gym, on Monday, May 29, at 10 a.m. The program was dedicated to the memory of Robert Murrock, who passed away on Oct. 5, 2016. Former Legion Commander, he served in the Marines during the Korean War and was a very involved Legion member.
After the presentation of Colors by the Legion Color Guard and the posting of the flags, the Coleman High School Band, under the direction of Becca Shuman, played "The Message on the Rock" as Sean McGough narrated past presidential quotes. The musical composition was inspired by The Freedom Rock, a 60+ ton boulder located in rural Iowa that contains battle scenes from the nation's history and fragment of speeches from American presidents. It was established in 1999 and is repainted with different scenes every year to thank veterans and to honor their service.
The Coleman High School Choir, under the direction of Kathy Bader sang several selections during the program including: The National Anthem, the "Salute to the Armed Forces" and "An American Celebration" the closing song along with the Band.
The 2017 Badger State Girls Beth Gannigan and McKenna Kreischer led the Pledge of Allegiance.
In his opening remarks, Legion Chaplain Dennis Alexander stated that Memorial Day is a day for remembering those lost in the line of duty and asked for prayers for the families of the veterans whose lives were lost.
Legion Commander Ken Stodola welcomed those in attendance and again reminded the audience of the true meaning of Memorial Day-"to remember those who paid the ultimate price for our safety, by laying down their lives for us."
A moving video "I Will Remember" cast a somber tone over the crowd and this was followed by Guest Speaker Dennis Bratton, a retired Desert Storm veteran. Bratton spoke of not just the colors of the flag, but the individual threads of the flag which represent to him his family and all of the families. He compared the shortest threads to those veterans who "gave up the only thing we truly own-our life" and pledged that he would not forget, as he remembered his comrades whose lives were lost, whether on the battle field or otherwise-both men and women. Veterans have been lost not just in the war zone, but also in the country, especially to suicide and he urged the people to recognize the signs and symptoms and "grab and take care of those in need". In conclusion, he stated, "Never Forget".
The 2017 Badger State Boy, Tylor Kwiecinski read the poem "Forgotten Fighter" and followed by a video message from former President Ronald Reagan, titled "Thank You".
The Memorial to Veterans Killed in Action, highlighted area veterans, who lost their lives from the following wars: Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korean War, Cold War, Vietnam War and the War on Terror. They were saluted by a rifle salute by the Legion Firing Squad and Taps by the Legion Bugler.
Stodola recognized and congratulated two 2017 Coleman High School graduates will be entering the military. They are Hunter Schlies, who has chosen the Army and leaves June 21st for Fort Benning, GA to train for mortar infantry and Abe Nowak, who chose the Marines and will leave for San Diego, CA on July 17.
The closing song, "An American Celebration" ended the program and the Colors were retired.

- Neil Young
- Peace Trail
Any of the young bucks out to make an alternative rock record should first pop in Peace Trail for a tutorial on lo-fi grind and shine that, at once, soothes and peels back the flesh. Young has been hard to shadow throughout his career, darting from rock and roll across landscapes of folk, grunge, experimental electronic, and even ‘50s pop without stopping long enough in any to be typecast. To be sure, there is by now, (this being his 38th album), a definitive Neil Young sound. What’s remarkable is how, from record to record, his songs and songwriting have avoided much repetition in structure or sonic delivery. Never is that more the case than here, with Young twice employing his harmonica as a sort-of train whistle on Hell’s locomotive rolling through the boneyard of life, (“Can’t Stop Workin’,” “Terrorist Suicide Hang Gliders”), or running his acoustic guitar strums through blown-speaker overdriven static. Lyrically, he name-checks Amazon.com and robots, talks the politics of ecology and agriculture, and champions trees, water, and women’s rights. Riding along are Jim Keltner and his percussive patterns that tilt the picture at just the properly obtuse angle, and bassist Paul Bushnell, whose inconspicuous tone and choices match Keltner step for sidewinding step. Odd syncopated vocal melodies on “Texas Rangers” find Young ambitious, even brave for the type of album track for which albums need to continue to be made. From his work with Pearl Jam, or more recently, with Promise of the Real, Young has shown a willingness to partner up with the younger generation he’s influenced. With this hat-toss into the alt-rock ring, Neil Young has assembled not just a brazenly creative set of songs, but a statement to all those young bucks: This is how it’s done.

Naperville North's boys basketball team made a statement Friday night.
The Huskies aim for another on Saturday.
A loaded weekend started well for Naperville North, which rallied to beat York 54-51 in a key nonconference game in Elmhurst. With one big win in the bag, the Huskies (7-2) want to keep the momentum in Saturday's DuPage Valley Conference showdown against Glenbard East in Naperville.
"We have two big games in a row, and this is our test basically," said Huskies forward Derek Westman, who led all scorers with 20 points and grabbed 7 rebounds. "With Glenbard East tomorrow, York today. I think they're both Top 20 teams in the Daily Herald so we're trying to make a statement. We want to show people that we're Top 20 material."
A tight game saw both sides take turns leading, but a strong third quarter, capped by a Justin Kurash dunk, put York (7-3) ahead 37-34 entering the fourth quarter. Westman, however, started the fourth with a 3-pointer and added another basket to give the Huskies their first lead since the second quarter at 39-37.
York's David Cohn, who led his team with 15 points, narrowed a 5-point deficit to 50-48 in the final minute. After Westman split a pair of free throws the Dukes got the ball with a chance to tie with a 3-pointer.
York never got the chance. Naperville North's Jayson Winick tipped the ball away to Bryan LoLordo, who fed Winick for a layup and a 53-48 lead. The hustle play epitomized the Huskies' fourth-quarter effort and sealed the win.
"We're trying to get on the map and this is our ticket into it," LoLordo said.
York struggled all night from the field, but especially in the second half when the Dukes made only 10 of 30 attempts from the field. Frank Toohey added 10 points for York.
"They hit that 3 at the beginning of the quarter and that got them going," said York coach Vince Doran. "Give credit to them. They stepped up and hit some shots."
Anthony Rehayem scored 10 points for Naperville North while Winick made 5 free throws and scored all 7 of his points in the fourth quarter.
"I think they're feeling like everyone's overlooking them a little bit," said Huskies coach Jeff Powers. "With this one they wanted to make sure people know that they're for real."
