De Vries, in Encyclopedia of Rose Science Authors generally agree on Rosa chinensis var. The origin of Miniatures is a colourful story. Their direct import in Europe has not been recorded, but plants described under this species are not indigenous to China.
Sweet's plant was disseminated as R. However, John Sims had already in described a dwarf rose under the name R. According to the late British breeder Jack Harkness this was a dwarf seedling selected from a segregating population of R. Because R. In the botanist Andreas Voss described and denominated a dwarf rose as R. Rosa chinensis var. The Swiss botanist Pyramus de Candolle also reports having obtained a dwarf rose from Mauritius, which he disseminated in Europe under the name R.
Several authors mention that another R. From till about Miniatures were desirable pot plants in France. However, from these tiny roses became out of style and were gradually replaced by the somewhat larger and more winter-hardy Polyanthas. Rosa rouletii has become the major ancestor of the present class of Miniatures.
Miniatures or their descendants form the major part of modern pot roses all over the world. Figure 1. Because triploid roses readily produce viable diploid pollen, the new generation of Miniatures, like practically all modern large-flowered rose varieties, became tetraploids within several decades. Owing to their somewhat sturdier growth, tetraploid Miniature varieties have become attractive pot plants. Free exchange of plant material among these breeders accelerated the development of new varieties.
Roberts, P. Blake, in Encyclopedia of Rose Science The gene responsible for this characteristic is a mutant gene that is silent in the presence of the wild-type allele and F 1 hybrids between recurrent-flowering cultivars and wild roses are seasonal-flowering.
If the F 1 hybrid is selfed or crossed with a recurrent-flowering rose, a proportion of the offspring will be homozygous for the mutant gene and express the recurrent-flowering character. Crosses between recurrent-flowering cultivars produce only recurrent-flowering offspring. It is generally the case that a recessive mutant gene is a damaged gene that is unable to function normally.
At one level it can be said that the function that has been lost is the ability to restrain flowering, but it would be of interest to understand, at a molecular level, how this is achieved see GENETICS Marker-Assisted Selection. The mutant gene that originated in R. It is also possible that mutations of different genes may also result in recurrent-flowering. Differently mutated genes may confer slightly different characteristics. From this pedigree it would be expected to be heterozygous for the wild-type and mutant gene and is, of course, seasonal-flowering. Rosa rugosa is an unusual example of a wild rose that produces flowers throughout the growing season.
It is possible that the genetic determination of the recurrent-flowering character of this species is different from that in the China roses. Andrew V. Roberts, Patrick S. Blake, in Reference Module in Life Sciences Recurrent-flowering sports of Rosa chinensis were found, cultivated and bred in China about years ago Guoliang, Modern-day recurrent-flowering cultivars were bred from these sports. The gene responsible for this characteristic is a mutant gene that is recessive to its wild-type allele and F 1 hybrids between recurrent-flowering cultivars and wild roses are seasonal-flowering.
In the case of the recurrent-flowering gene the ability that has been lost is the restraint of flowering. Recently information has emerged at the molecular level, on how this happens. RoKSN is activated transcribed into mRNA when gibberellins are present in shoot apices in a sufficiently high concentration. RoKSN is then produced which prevents the initiation of flowers Randoux et al.
The role of wild-type RoKSN is to repress the transition from vegetative growth to flowering. The effect of the recurrent-flowering mutation is to render RoKSN impotent and unable to repress this transition. In both of these roses, flowers are initiated soon after chinese and Rosa AL dating break at the start of the growing season when endogenous concentrations of gibberellins are low as in March, Table 1. In the absence of RoKSN and its inhibitory effects, flowering proceeds unabated through to the end of the growing season.
It has not yet been resolved how the mutation to recurrent flowering in the RoKSN gene interacts with the gibberellin pathway. Very specific information is now available about the mutational event that gave rise to recurrent flowering. It resulted from the insertion of a 9-kbp transposon into the second intron of the RoKSN gene Iwata et al.
Materials and methods
In an interesting experiment which further demonstrates the ability of RoKSN to inhibit flowering, a recurrent-flowering tetraploid cultivar of Rosa hybrida was transformed with a construct containing wild-type RoKSN Randoux et al. Five transgenic plantlets were regenerated from in vitro culture. They did not produce flowers within 12 months of transfer from in vitro culture to a greenhouse, which is what would be expected of seasonal-flowering roses. In contrast, controls consisting of non-transformed plants and plants transformed with an empty vector flowered within 70 days which is typical of recurrent-flowering roses.
Recurrent-flowering roses frequently mutate to a climbing habit in which the first flush of flowers in spring is followed by a second flowering late in the growing season. The climbing mutants differ from the original cultivar in producing more nodes before the inflorescence is initiated, not by an increase in the length of internodes.
They arise from a mutation that occurs within the transposon that disabled RoKSN and involves a reduction of 9-kbp transposon to a 1-kbp fragment of DNA Iwata et al.
This reduction in a partial reversion to seasonal flowering. This shows that the gene containing the 1-kbp fragment is dominant over the gene containing the original 9-kbp fragment. Dwarf phenotypes mainly derived from the species Rosa chinensis minima Sims Voss.
The ease with which dwarf genotypes have been selected from crosses with diploid and tetraploid plants in the past and the observation that single-gene mutations cause dwarf phenotypes in plant models, such as Arabidopsis thaliana L. Detailed genetic analysis of rose diploid populations indicated that the dwarf character is inherited as monogenic-dominant. Due to the different of genes found in plant model systems, it cannot be excluded, as for the inheritance of prickles, that mutations in several different genes may lead to dwarf phenotypes.
Mattock, in Encyclopedia of Rose Science Since about with the introduction of Rosa chinensis into breeding programmes there has been a marked reduction in the vigour of rose plants grown from cuttings, particularly Hybrid Teas, because of their inability to produce a satisfactory root system to sustain a reasonable rate of growth and probably of greater importance a good quality of flower. The fact that the growth of a cultivar could be improved by using a vigorous rootstock had been common knowledge since biblical times particularly in the production of fruit and other economically important plants.
It was no great surprise therefore that a rose cultivar should be budded onto a compatible vigorous rootstock, e.
In the last years this method of propagation has become commonplace and worldwide some million plants commonly called maidens are produced annually through the process of budding. It is important to remember that whilst the majority of stocks give greater vigour to a variety than can be obtained by propagating by cuttings they cannot determine any other form of growth as for instance a dwarfing stock on fruit trees. Guoliang, in Encyclopedia of Rose Science It is acknowledged that the rose is one of the four major cultivated flowers in the world.
Fortunately, the Chinese rose has the same status among native Chinese flowers and its cultivation has a long history which can be traced back years, to the period of the Han Dynasty —87 bcwhen wild roses were seen everywhere in the gardens of the imperial palace.
China is the distribution centre of the genus Rosa. Fossils of rose leaflets unearthed in Fushun, Liaoning province northern China have proved that the Chinese rose existed at least 40 million years ago in the Eocene epoch. Infossils of two kinds of wild rose were discovered in the Shanwang palaeobotanic region of Shandong province, and they were then named Rosa shanwangensis Hu et Chaney Figure 1and dated 25 million years old.
Since then many archaeological discoveries have been made.
Pieces of clay pots engraved with des of pot plants made years ago were excavated at the New Stone Age relic site of Yuyao county, Zhejiang province. Some coloured pots and flat basins painted with colourful five-petalled flowers dating from bc were unearthed at Dawenkou relics site in Taihu Lake region, Jiangsu Province Figure 2. In ancient inscriptions on bones and tortoise shells, there are Chinese characters like yuan gardenpu nursery and you hunting park.
In the Chinese language, yuan relates to planting and cultivating trees or fruit trees, pu to vegetables and you to early parks and woods. In addition, there were hua flowershui plantschong insects and cao weeds. However, the first appearance of the phrase hua hui flowers and plants was in Liang History — Biography of He Dianwritten years ago.
In the Tang Dynasty — adworking staff specialized in planting flowers and other plants. Any flowers will be greatly appreciated.

Whenever my husband and I review how much we need to earn in order to live, I’m struck by how much lower our expectations are than those of our friends. Most seem to expect a holiday abroad a couple of times a year, new clothes and meals out – whereas we go for a few drinks in the pub at the weekend and eat out less than once a month.
There have only been a couple of times in my life when I’ve not had to worry about money and, unusually, one of those periods was when I was a student. I juggled jobs as a childminder, shop assistant and nightclub attendant and could earn £150 a day, going into bars asking people about cigarettes and alcohol for a market research company.
My bank balance dipped when I left university, married and bought a house. I dreamt of a career in journalism and took on freelancing jobs for a local paper. When in 2012 my husband and I decided to move back to London, we swapped our three-bedroom terraced house in Frome – which sold for £205,000 – for a wreck of a flat in Clapton, east London, and money was tight.
My freelancing wasn’t earning enough for anything other than bare essentials and after a year of spartan living I realised my chosen life wasn’t working out. I put my journalism ambitions to one side and took a full-time contract job copywriting for a tech startup. At its peak it earned me £250 a day. Suddenly I didn’t have to worry about money any more. I didn’t get paid leave so in my two years with the company, I rarely took a day off.
That flush period was short-lived. When I gave birth to our three-year-old I lost the job. I was told my post would be kept open for me but they wouldn’t put it in writing – and it wasn’t. The statutory maternity pay of £137 a week and the £10,000 I’d saved kept me going for 10 months, and when it ran out I took a part-time job on a magazine, though that only paid £75 a day. Luckily, my parents were very generous when it came to childcare.
When my daughter was one I set up a digital parenting magazine, theearlyhour.com, for new parents, like me, who felt lonely in the early hours of the morning. I learned how to monetise it, and it now earns me between £500 and £2,000 a month. Setting up the business has led to consultancy work – I do it once or twice a month, and charge £500 a day. There have also been brand collaborations and photoshoots, which can pay up to £1,000 a job. I earn £200 a month blogging for BabyCentre and £600 copywriting for women’s app Clementine. Recently I was given a £5,000 advance by 4th Estate to write The Freelance Mum, a guide for other mothers looking to fit freelance work around family.
I now have two young children and choose to work around them rather than forking out for full-time childcare. My daughter is at pre-school from Monday to Friday, and my one-year-old son has a childminder two half-days a week, which costs £400.
Although my income has improved and we split the bills, we still have to live fairly frugally because I don’t have a predictable salary. I need to earn about £1,200 net to pay my bills and on months when I exceed this I put the extra into a holiday fund or a savings account to cover the lean times.
We’ve cut out meat from our diet to save money. I reckon that’s reduced our food bills by a third. We cook from scratch to make food go further and typically spend about £600 a month in supermarkets.
We allocate about £200 a month for family spending at the weekend. My husband pays the mortgage, utility bills, weekend days out and for the car. I cover childcare, food during the week, clothes for the children and me which averages at £100 a month, my £45 a month phone bill and subscriptions to Netflix and Spotify.

WASHINGTON — Only four governors have been contacted about sending National Guard units to the U.S. – Mexico border, a Department of Homeland Security spokesman told the Chicago Sun-Times on Thursday, as Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., who served in the reserve forces, said she was “alarmed” at the potential deployment.
Duckworth, in the Army Reserves and the Illinois Army National Guard for 23 years, retiring as a lieutenant colonel, said in a statement, “I am deeply alarmed that the Trump Administration is attempting to politicize the National Guard and using deployments to advance a political messaging agenda that is detached from real operational requirements.
“The U.S. military and Federal law enforcement deserve better from their Commander-in-Chief,” said Duckworth.
When President Donald Trump announced his plan, neither his White House nor the DHS, nor the Pentagon would or could say the number of troops needed, the specific missions, about how long the deployments will last, how much this will cost and how states will be reimbursed for expenses.
On Thursday afternoon aboard Air Force One, Trump said the National Guard members would number “anywhere from 2,000 to 4,000.” Asked about cost, the president said, “We’re looking at it, but, I mean, I have a pretty good idea. But it depends on what we do.”
A DHS spokesperson, Jonathan Hoffman, told the Chicago Sun-Times the governors of the border states of Arizona, Texas, New Mexico and California were called by DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.
Republicans are governors of Arizona, Texas and New Mexico, while California is led by Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown, a leader of the Democratic resistance to Trump. Governors are the commanders-in-chief of state guard troops.
The Los Angeles Times reported that Brown is holding back on approving the request until he knows more details.
The Times reported, “California Gov. Jerry Brown, heard from Nielsen about the issue for the first time on Wednesday, according to a spokesman. Without key details — including the number of troops, the duration of their deployment and the cost — the Democratic governor was unwilling to commit to the effort, his spokesman said.
Deputy White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley, in a Thursday morning interview with Fox News Channel’s America’s Newsroom, when asked about the numbers said “as many as it takes. … I can’t give you an idea because we don’t know exactly how many are going to participate – how many we need to solve this problem. We do know the problem is a crisis. It’s urgent.”
The National Guard members will be assigned to assist the Border Patrol.
Nielsen, in a Fox News Channel’s Fox & Friends interview on Thursday morning discussed some ways the troops could be used, including air support.
“So we’d be looking for them to do that. They help provide medical care for those that we do interdict. They’d help us do fleet maintenance. You know we need a lot of mechanics to use in that terrain so it’s a lot of support functions that will free up the border patrol to do what they do best, which is enforce border laws.”
THE STATISTICS: Trump’s move seems pegged to two events, a “caravan” of migrants from Central America on a march toward the U.S. border and a rise in the number of apprehensions. The “caravan” has been broken while still deep in Mexico.
While there has been a recent spike, over the past years illegal entry to the U.S. has not climbed.
According to DHS data released on Thursday, “In March a total of 37,393 individuals were apprehended between ports of entry on our Southwest Border, compared with 26,662 in February and 25,978 in January.”
But overall, apprehensions have been down, DHS numbers show: In Fiscal Year 2017, the U.S. Border Patrol “apprehended 303,916 individuals along our Southwest Border, compared to 408,870 in FY16, 331,333 in FY15, and 479,371 in FY14.”
More people presenting themselves at border crossings in the Southwest have been turned away from entering the U.S. in the past three months.
According to DHS, “In March, 12,915 people presenting themselves at ports of entry on the Southwest Border were deemed inadmissible compared to 10,021 in February, and 9,839 in January.
“In FY 2017 111,275 individuals were deemed inadmissible compared to 150,825 in FY16, 114,486 in FY15 and 90,601 in FY14.”

John Parker Wilson is the Atlanta Falcons’ third quarterback after all.
A day after waiving Wilson, the Falcons announced he has been signed to their practice squad. Starter Matt Ryan and backup Chris Redman are the only two quarterbacks on the active roster. Wilson served as the team’s No. 3 quarterback last season, but a change in rules allowing 46 active players on game days this season has prompted more teams to keep only two quarterbacks on the regular roster.
Also signed to Atlanta’s practice squad were safety Rafael Bush, receiver Kevin Cone, receiver Drew Davis, guard Andrew Jackson, linebacker Robert James and tackle Jose Valdez. The Falcons still have one unfilled spot on the practice squad.

Manchester is a city synonymous with guitar-driven indie with a rich musical heritage that is hard to ignore. It has arguably given us as many seminal bands as London, whilst also producing plenty that feel all too familiar in comparison to others; stale even, something which makes The Slow Readers Club even far more crucial to the city's musical landscape.
Forgoing the arrogant guitar-based swagger of so many of their contemporaries, The Slow Readers Club are making waves with their own brand of brooding electro-indie. It might not be the stereotypical sound of contemporary Manchester, but The Slow Readers Club are breathing new life in to tired lungs and are very much the band Manchester's clamouring for.
Forthcoming single 'Plant the Seed' is a pulsating slice of electro pop with an infectious vocal hook and has already drawn comparisons with Depeche Mode and The National. The band’s last four singles have enjoyed airplay on BBC 6 Music and XFM (now Radio X) and featured three times as XFM’s shock of the new. The single ‘Don’t Mind’ was featured on Steve Lamacq’s round table on BBC 6Music.
The Slow Readers Club have been getting rave reviews for their live shows, including a sold out show at Manchester Academy 3, Isle Of Wight Festival, Tramlines Festival and Ramsbottom Festival (including support slots with 'Catfish & The Bottlemen', 'The Struts', 'Reverend and the Makers' and 'The Sunshine Underground' )
The Slow Readers Club seem to be set to take up the mantle of Manchester’s next big thing with their trademark ‘dark, broody, indie electro’ led by Aaron Starkie’s impassioned delivery. Their atmospheric set living up to the billing of being Louder Than War’s ones to watch - Louderthanwar.com
The Slow Readers Club are without doubt on the cusp of something spectacular and if you haven't immersed yourself in their indie electro sounds by now, then it's high time you paid attention - Louise Dodgson - CityLife Extra
We are extremely excited about these guys here at XFM and Forever In Your Debt is always playing on our big indie jukebox - One of XFM's Top 5 Songs Of The Week (1 December 2014)

An August Evening in Aspen
We had the pleasure of partnering with a dream team of vendors in August for one of our most breathtaking photo shoots to date. When Laura Murray reached out asking if she could borrow two spectacular Galia Lahav gowns to shoot on top of a mountain in Aspen, we didn’t hesitate. Smith Cabin sits on 692 private acres surrounded by national forest with rolling hills of wildflowers and views of Castle Creek and the Conundrum Valley. The cabin was the perfect setting for the August shoot, with the perfect light at, what seems like all times of day.
To top off the perfect team of vendors, we had the opportunity to shoot the Galia Lahav Ambrosia and Magnolia gowns. For the boudoir shoot inside Smith’s Cabin, Monica wore the dramatic Ambrosia gown. Ambrosia is a sheer, hand-beaded kimono dress with a high slit and a sheer tulle godet with a low asymmetrically draped back. For those incredible mountaintop shots, Monica wore Magnolia, a corseted ballerina ballgown made of soft silk tulle, a draped corset, and a sheer voluminous skirt.
Thanks to this amazing team of friendors and to Rocky Mountain Bride for the beautiful feature in Rocky Mountain Bride Volume 4!

If you’re into health and wellness, then chances are you’re already familiar with adaptogens, though you may not even know it. You may not quite be at the level of your yoga-obsessed, daily green juice-drinking friend who keeps a tincture of ashwagandha in her bag and fancies herself a soul sister of Shailene Woodley. But if you’ve ever cooked with turmeric or ginger, then you too have consumed an adaptogen.
Adaptogens are plant-based substances like ginseng, maca, and holy basil that help the body respond to physical, emotional, and environmental stressors. To be classified as an adaptogen the plant must help bring the body back into equilibrium, be non-toxic, and provide health benefits. You can think of adaptogens as a biological thermostat for stress — when they register that your body is stressed, they step in, helping you to adapt so that you stay in that sweet spot of being neither depleted nor anxious and remaining calm and clear-headed.
How Do Adaptogens Support Your Skin?
Adaptogens are plant extracts that help balance stressed skin, such as skin that has suffered from spikes in the stress hormone, cortisol. “Studies have shown benefits when adaptogens are taken as oral supplements, but now they're becoming popular ingredients in topical skincare products as well,” Dr. Hadley King, board-certified dermatologist says. “Although we do not yet have a thorough understanding of [how], we do know that stress and anxiety can impact most inflammatory skin conditions, including acne, rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, hives, and alopecia areata.”
King explains that stress elevates cortisol levels, which affects the immune system, and the immune system creates inflammation which may manifest as a flare-up in any of the above conditions. “Cortisol levels can also affect other hormone levels, which can play a part in skin conditions as well,” King says.
If you’ve ever gotten a breakout before a big presentation or felt oily before a first date, then you’ve seen firsthand how internal stressors can affect the way your skin looks. In addition to the flashes of mental anxiety most of us know all too well, your skin can also get stressed by exposure to external environmental factors like UV rays, pollution, and smoke.
Cortisol Calming – is a daily supplement that fights cortisol spikes to soothe stress and anxiety, improves memory, reduces skin inflammation with nootropics and adaptogens such as ashwagandha.
This is where adaptogenic skincare comes in. Just as adaptogens like ginseng or maca can increase focus and endurance, while others like valerian root or holy basil can promote feelings of calm and well-being, adaptogens used in your beauty products can assist your body’s natural defenses in its efforts to combat both internal and external stress.
Today, these buzzy ingredients may be popping up in everything from supplements and drinks to premiere skincare. But the health benefits of these plants have been known for centuries: Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine have used them in their healing practices for thousands of years.
Some Adaptogens That Shine in Skincare
Simply put, all stress can throw your skin out of equilibrium to some extent, which is where adaptogens step in, working to gently guide your skin back to where it wants to be. They do this in two ways: in the short term, they help bring the skin back to baseline after exposure to stress. In the long term, they protect your skin against future effects of stress, including signs of skin aging. Some of the best adaptogens in skincare are:
Shiitake Mushroom Extract: An adaptogenic mushroom known as the “Long Life Elixir”. Sourced from the stalk of the plant, this extract is rich in anti-inflammatory lentinan and immune boosting pro-vitamin D2, along with amino acids and other trace elements. This ingredient works by alerting the skin’s immune system to reinforce its natural defense system helping protect the skin from aggressors that lead to sensitivity and premature signs of aging.
Found in Advanced Hydration Cleanser – an oil to milk cleanser that melts away makeup, sunscreen, and pollution while fortifying the skin barrier and replenishing fry depleted skin.
Poria Mushroom + Tall Reed Extract: Mushrooms in general contain compounds that “show excellent antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, anti-wrinkle, and moisturizing effects, which make them good candidates for skincare products,” Dr. King says. Poria mushroom extract is a great example of this. Because poria mushrooms are rich in antioxidants, they are able to combat oxidative stress on the skin caused by environmental factors like sun exposure or pollution. When paired with tall reed extract, which comes from tropical perennial grasses, the powerhouse duo helps to reduce inflammation, protecting and re-establishing the skin’s barrier function.
Found in Inflammation Response – a potent antioxidant skin serum for hormonal acne, facial inflammation, and skin redness. The soothing, light, cream concentrate shrinks pores, protects against breakouts and is a safe alternative to salicylic acid (BHA).
Turmeric root: Turmeric is more than just a common yellow spice used all over the world. It’s packed with antioxidants that can combat inflammation, helping to even skin tone and enhance skin radiance.
Found in Brightening Support – a potent Vitamin C serum that reduces the appearance of hyperpigmentation and melasma. The silky gel concentrate is supported by antioxidants and collagen-boosting botanicals; protects against environmental stressors.
Snow Mushroom Extract: In addition to antioxidant powers from the adaptogenic mushrooms, snow mushroom extract has the added benefit of being a lightweight, yet powerful source of hydration. It acts like a natural hyaluronic acid by pulling moisture into the skin, but it is even more effective. Because its particles are actually smaller than those of the acid, it can deliver moisture more deeply into the skin.
Garland Lily Extract: This plant-based extract comes from the rhizomes (underground roots) of the butterfly ginger plant. It protects the skin against external and environmental stress, including blue light, UV rays, infrared light, heat, and air pollution, which makes it a staple for anyone who lives in a city or spends a lot of time in front of a screen.
Cherimoya Extract: Cherimoya fruit is sweet and creamy with characteristics that allow it to adjust to its environment (meaning it can withstand changes in temperature or humidity). These qualities also help relieve skin stress helping to reduce redness and rebalance your complexion.
Found in BioEvolve Serum – a silky smooth hydrating serum with potent antioxidants, adaptogens, and collagen promoting ingredients that repair and smooth skin, and help to protect from environmental stressors. The ultimate nourishment for your skin.
Found in BioEvolve Moisturizer – a rich hydrating moisturizer with hyaluronic acid, biomimetic, and adaptogenic ingredients that delivers age-defying and customized hydration leaving skin smooth, supple, and radiant, while strengthening your skin barrier.

Missle appears to
try avoiding defenses
WASHINGTON (TNS) — A newly tested North Korean short-range ballistic missile appears to be a copy of an advanced Russian design that could greatly improve Pyongyang’s ability to evade U.S. missile defense systems, according to U.S. officials.
President Donald Trump, who has sought unsuccessfully for the last year to persuade North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to give up his nuclear weapons, has dismissed the new missile as “very standard stuff.” But military and national security officials see a potential threat to U.S. forces and allies in northeast Asia.
Three of the missiles were test-fired on May 4 and May 9 from northwest North Korea. They flew on a low trajectory, never exiting the Earth’s atmosphere, and flew about 180 miles before plunging into the Sea of Japan.
Pictures showed the missile closely resembles a short-range Russian missile, called the Iskander, right down to the solid fuel engine and four fins on its tail for making in-flight course adjustments. The similarities are so strong that some experts dubbed Pyongyang’s version “the Kimskander” after the tests.
A low-flying missile with a satellite guidance system, as the North Korean missile appears to have, is potentially far harder for U.S. anti-missile systems deployed in South Korea to intercept, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal assessments.
The weapon also could be hard to destroy on the ground because it relies on a mobile launcher that carries two missiles and can be moved. It is likely more accurate than North Korea’s aging arsenal of short-range Scud missiles.
The tests appeared aimed at increasing pressure on the White House to resume negotiations that stalled after a Trump-Kim summit in February failed to make any progress on getting Kim to abandon his nuclear arsenal and weapons production facilities.

resigns after turmoil
BOGOTA, Colombia (TNS) — Colombia’s attorney general abruptly resigned Wednesday after the country’s Special Peace Tribunal refused to extradite a former commander of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia to the United States on drug trafficking charges.
Attorney General Nestor Humberto Martinez told the court that he wouldn’t sign off on the release of Seuxis Paucias Hernandez, better known as Jesus Santrich, because “my conscience and my devotion to the rule of law will not allow me to.”
In April 2018, a U.S. court indicted Santrich and others of conspiring to send tons of cocaine to the United States..

The previously reported compound [(PMDETA)K(mu-TMP)(mu-CHQCH(2))-Zn(CH2SiMe3)] (2) (PMDETA = N,N,N',N '',N ''-pentamethyldiethylene-triamine) and 1 are used as potential model compounds for anionic ethene polymerisation. Detailed Density Functional Theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory on both 1 and 2 in conjunction with Bader AIM and NBO analyses revealed a substantial interaction between the Zn-CH atom and the Li (in 1, d(Li-CH) = 2.43 angstrom) or K (in 2, d(K-CH) = 3.01 angstrom). In fact, in the case of 1, this interaction is even stronger (estimated to be 20-30 kJ mol(-1)) than those reported in the previously reported DFT studies of the reaction with butyl lithium and ethene in the presence of diamino ligands. Our theoretical results are in good agreement with experimentally observed parameters.

The Huskies had little trouble with UMass-Lowell in their second and final preseason game, a 100-62 win, days before they head to Germany for the season opener against Michigan State. Even in this rebuilding year, the result wasn't a surprise, but the game shed light on one of the biggest issues facing Kevin Ollie's squad: who would step up with Jeremy Lamb and Andre Drummond in the NBA and Roscoe Smith and Alex Oriahki having transferred?
The obvious answers: Shabazz Napier, Ryan Boatright and Tyler Olander. Beyond that? It's not clear. Or at least it wasn't. Freshman Omar Calhoun is fearless and sophomore DeAndre Daniels appears to have regained his confidence after a rocky rookie season.
"Last year, when things would go bad, I wanted to go home," Daniels admitted after scoring 15 points and grabbing 14 rebounds. "I understand my role better. I'm boxing out better, and I'm going to get the ball better. I have to do that because I'm not as big and strong as some of the [frontcourt] guys we're going to face."
Ollie, whose contract expires in the spring, knows exactly what he needs from Daniels, a 6-8 forward.
"We need DeAndre to rebound," Ollie said via the Hartford Courant. "He dedicated himself this summer, and after he came back later in the summer, he dedicated himself. He had nine rebounds last time, and he had 10 in the first half in this game, and we need him to keep getting better."
Calhoun, meanwhile, seems unaffected by the bright lights of big-time college basketball. Of course, it's hard to make a final judgment on Calhoun's game based on two home exhibition games. We'll know more once the regular season kicks off but this much is clear: Calhoun can score and you can't put a premium on points.
"He wants to shoot," Ollie said, "it doesn't matter if he makes or misses, he wants the next shot."
That's going to be important in a season without Kemba Walker or Jeremy Lamb.

The incidence of CVD increases with aging, because of long-term exposure to risk factors/stressors. Aging is a complex biological process resulting in progressive loss of physiological integrity, leading to impaired function and increased vulnerability to death. The main hallmarks of aging are cellular senescence, stem cell exhaustion, and altered intracellular communication. The major hallmarks of senescence are mitochondrial dysfunction, genomic instability, telomere attrition and epigenetic alterations, all of which contributing to cellular aging. Such events are controls by a family of small, non-coding RNAs (miRNAs) that interact with component of cellular senescence pathway; mitochondrial biogenesis/removal, DNA damage response machinery and IGF-1 signaling pathway. Here, we review recent in vivo/in vitro reports that miRNAs are key modulators of heart senescence, and act as master switchers to influence reprogramming pathway. We discuss evidence that abrupt deregulation of some mit-miRNAs governing senescence programs underlies age-associated CVD. In particular, due to the highly conserved nature and well-recognized target sites, miRNAs have been defined as master switchers in controlling heart progenitor cell biology. Modulation of mit-miRNA expression holds the great promise in switching off/on cellular senescence/reprogramming to rejuvenate stem cells to aid regenerative process.

Brett Kavanaugh has been confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court but California’s Democrat governor Jerry Brown, also a Yale law alum, opposed President Trump’s pick. During the left’s smear tsunami, Brown told reporters, “There’s no doubt that he was a heavy drinker and he told the exact opposite statement. So his lies, I think, are relatively well-proved and I hope the FBI can figure that out.” As it happens, concern over heaving drinking is a new development for the California’s top Democrat.
Previous governor Arnold Schwarzenegger appointed as state finance director Ana Matosantos, who held only a BA in political science and feminist studies. In 2011, Sacramento police busted Matosantos for drunk driving, which from 2003 to 2012 claimed 10,327 lives in California. She took full responsibility for her “reckless and irresponsible” actions and offered to resign but incoming governor Brown declined the offer and kept the unqualified Matosantos on the job.
In late September, the California governor vetoed a senate bill that would have allowed “undocumented immigrants,” also known as illegal aliens, to serve on all state boards and commissions. Brown’s veto said existing law “which requires citizenship” for these forms of public service, “is the better path.” That judgement came a bit late.
California’s voter-approved 1996 Proposition 209 bans racial and ethnic preferences in state employment and education. In March, California senate boss Kevin de Leon defied that law when he appointed Lizbeth Mateo, 33, an “immigrant rights activist,” to the California Student Opportunity and Access Program Project Grant Advisory Committee. The attorney become the first “undocumented” resident to occupy a statewide post. The senate boss, now running against fellow Democrat Dianne Feinstein, said the appointment was “a clear shot to a president and attorney general that continued to demonize these young men and women who in many ways are more American than they are.”
Governor Brown offered no objection to the appointment of a non-citizen to a state position. Legitimate citizens and legal immigrants had good cause to wonder if the governor wanted non-citizens to vote.
In 2015, Brown signed the “Motor Voter” law that empowers the DMV automatically to register voters. The law supposedly had “firewalls” that prevented illegals from voting but secretary of state Alex Padilla refused to cooperate with a federal probe of voter fraud after the 2016 election. By March 2018 the DMV had issued driver’s licenses to more than one million “undocumented” persons.
Padilla believes the right to vote is “fundamental” and Brown has expressed no concern that more than one million non-citizens might vote in November. The three-time contender for president of the United States is on record that Californians are “the citizens of the fifth-largest economy in the world.” Brown also approves California’s sanctuary state law and attacks its critics as “low-life politicians.”
The shooting of Kate Steinle and murder of police officers Danny Oliver and Michael Davis by previously deported Mexican nationals prompted no second thoughts on sanctuary from Brown. As he heads for the door in January, the hereditary, recurring governor has stayed busy.
In September, Brown signed a bill barring anyone under age 21 from purchasing a rifle or shotgun. As Second Amendment advocates noted, this meant that those under 21 can deploy guns to fight for their country but stand prohibited from buying a gun to defend themselves and their families. This also marks a change of sorts for Brown.
During the 1970s, AIM militant Dennis Banks was involved in a gun battle at a South Dakota courthouse. Banks fled to California and governor Jerry Brown refused to extradite the fugitive, whose “gun violence” was politically correct at the time. More recently, the governor has been fondling his soft spot for violent criminals.
On September 30, Brown signed Senate Bill 1391, which empowers criminals age 14-18 to commit murder and other violent crimes and escape prosecution in adult court. These juvenile criminals, who could easily include MS-13 gang members, can be imprisoned only until they turn 25. Brown’s approval of the measure proved distressing to crime victims and their families, but crime victims have never rated highly with Brown.
For chief justice of the state supreme court governor Brown picked his campaign chauffer Rose Bird, who had no judicial experience. In 10 years Bird heard 64 capital cases and never voted to uphold a death sentence. The cases included Theodore Frank, duly convicted of kidnaping, torturing, raping, murdering and mutilating two-year-old Amy Sue Seitz in 1978. In 1986, voters booted Bird by a two-to-one margin and ousted justices Cruz Reynoso and Joseph Grodin, Brown appointees who sided with Bird on the death-penalty cases.
Last year Jerry Brown commuted the sentences of nine convicts convicted of murder or attempted murder. Crime victims and their families might watch how many of California’s convicted murderers the 80-year-old Democrat pardons before leaving office next year. Maybe he will commute the sentence of Juan Corona, 84, the previously deported Mexican national who murdered and mutilated at least 25 Americans.
Jerry Brown made it easier for violent criminals to claim victims and more difficult for law-abiding citizens to defend themselves. Brown has also made California the state with the highest income and sales taxes. Whatever the decade, Jerry brown is the perfect governor for the party of crime, high taxes, illegal immigration and voter fraud.

Britain votes to leave EU, David Cameron resigns as Prime Minister
Prime Minister David Cameron is to step down by October after the UK voted to leave the European Union.
Speaking outside 10 Downing Street, he said “fresh leadership” was needed.
The PM had urged the country to vote Remain but was defeated by 52% to 48% despite London, Scotland and Northern Ireland backing staying in.
UKIP leader Nigel Farage hailed it as the UK’s “independence day”, while Boris Johnson said the result would not mean “pulling up the drawbridge”.
Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said she was “absolutely determined” to keep Scotland in the EU so a second Scottish independence referendum was now “highly likely”.

I have so many other projects I want to work on, but constant revisions slow me down.
I actually just pulled a sub - one I was invited to submit - because the story didn't feel complete, and the sub call limited the word count to 15k. In the end, I don't think I'll regret it, though I had the feeling it was a slam dunk. *sigh*
Does anyone else have this problem? Or am I taking perfectionism too far?

Unlike PFS OP, we won't be publishing scenarios for different levels to pick and choose from. We're essentially publishing a new AP that runs alongside the S&S AP, where the first month's scenarios comprise Adventure 1, the next month's comprise Adventure 2, and so on.
I am playing Skull and Shackles in real PF. I was considering not opening some of the later packages of the card game until I am through them in the game.
Would you consider the OP scenarios as also being spoilers for S&S?
Yeah, but OP Scenarios (I'm assuming) have their own Adventures and their own Scenarios (and maybe their own Villains) so I wouldn't necessarily have to look at those cards.
That's essentially what I'm asking. Are the OP Scenarios different enough that it would only be mild spoilers?

HOLLISTER, Mo. — A new police department and public works building in Hollister was dedicated on Wednesday, June 16.
Although workers began moving into the new space in early May 2021, the ceremony celebrated the full transition into the building.
After the ribbon-cutting, an open house was hosted for members of the community to see the new facility.
Preston Schmidt, chief of police, said the larger space allows for future expansion.
“To be in a purposely built facility, is phenomenal,” said Schmidt. “Been energized. You can tell they’re happier. They’re at peace. And one group of people that I really want to thank are the citizens of Hollister.”
The new space has a gated parking area, swipe cards for the building and other additional security measures.

- ¼ cup tomato sauce (I used All Gold)
- 2x cups of boiled water
- 1x teaspoon chilli flakes (more if you want a harder kick)
- 1x teaspoon onion powder
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- Soak the soya mince in water for 20 minutes. Drain water and squeeze out excess water from the soya mince.
- Fry the chopped onion in a bit of olive oil.
- Add the tin of black beans and the tin of chopped tomatoes and let it simmer on the stove.
- Add the kettle corn, chilli flakes and BBQ sauce and stir well.
- Add the soya mince and two cups of boiling water and turn up the heat.
- Stir occasionally until all the water is absorbed and the soya mince is soft (about 15 minutes).
- Add the tomato sauce, onion powder, salt and pepper and stir well.
- Serve hot with cooked rice, mash potato, couscous or samp corn.

The Don Cesar is distinct in its appearance, between its pink, castle-like exterior and monolithic position of jutting above the adjacent seaside-it’s hard to miss the hotel which staff affectionately refer to as “The Pink Palace”. Find out how this historic jewel of Florida has made its way to becoming a modern legend below
Hospitality is an industry that prides itself on constantly exceeding expectations. As guest satisfaction is at the very centre of a hotel’s business model, the standards that they hold themselves to is the key to their success. As a result, we can see a huge number of properties (both hotels and restaurants) that hold significant prestige in the industry.
However, even in an industry as saturated with prestige as hospitality, there is still room for particularly bright stars to shine through. Last time we spoke about Sea Island, the warmly hospitable Southern jewel: Sea Island, nestled in the coast of Georgia. Today I’m here to introduce you to…
The Don Cesar is a grand, beautifully designed hotel on Florida’s Gulf Coast. With a state that includes the unforgettable, vibrant city of Miami and the family-friendly amusement park- laden city of Orland, it is easy to forget that other parts of the state exist. While it is easy to overlook it, disregarding the Gulf Coast of Florida would be a crime and part of that reason is Don Cesar.
The Don Cesar is distinct in its appearance, between its pink, castle-like exterior and monolithic position of jutting above the adjacent seaside it’s hard to miss the hotel which staff affectionately refer to as “The Pink Palace”. The Hotel itself offers a gorgeous mix of both antique décor and modern amenities. Guests also have the option of spending their nights sleeping directly by the sea in one of the hotel's almost 300 luxury seafront guest rooms. In addition to its grand exterior and luxurious rooms/location, The Don Cesar also attracts visitors through an impressive set of features, such as:
- An 11,000 square foot spa, complete with top of the line treatments
- A fully stocked fitness centre
- Top of the line pool, with concierge services and late night access
- Activity centre for kids and pets
As a clientele, the Don Cesar is known for attracting the wealthy and famous due to the hotel’s prestige, appearance and luxurious amenities. However the Pink Palace is also known to attract history aficionados, and it's easy to see why…
The History of the Don Cesar
The Don Cesar was opened in 1928 by real estate Tycoon, Thomas Rowe, as a tribute to his lost lover. The property opened within the height of the roaring 20’s. Due to it’s beautiful exterior and white sandy beaches, the hotel was known to be a playground for the rich, powerful and famous. This reputation meant that the hotel attracted many influential figures, including jazz stars of the decade and even some big name gangsters such as Al Capone.
After Rowe abruptly died in 1940, the hotel was given to his estranged wife, Mary, who allowed the property to fall into disrepair. While this likely didn’t help with guest revenue, the existence of this large, coastal structure attracted the interest of the US military, who you may remember were in somewhat of a predicament in 1940 (RE: WW2, the largest global conflict of all time)
The US military temporarily purchased the Don Cesar to assist in the war effort. It’s prime function would be as a sub-base hospital and a care home for US airmen returning from their tour of service. As the war drew to a close in 1945, the US military would begin to vacate the premises and it would seem that the now dishevelled, empty building would be destined for demolition upon the military’s exit in 1969.
However, when news of the demolition plans reached the surrounding community, the demolition project faced heavy resistance, as many saw it as an icon of the Gulf Coast and a historical landmark. Fortunately, these community heroes got their wish and the property was bought by businessman William Bowman in 1972, who invested 3.5 million dollars into restoring the hotel to its former glory. The property would open its doors again in 1973 and gain historical site status in the following year.
Since its reopening, the Don Cesar has regained its reputation as a playground for those who can afford it, but through its historical journey, The Pink Palace has gained an air of significance and grandeur both among the local community and the rest of the USA.

BCCI gags Dhoni over questions on IPL scandal

If there was anyone who could have cleared the air surrounding the biggest controversy in IndianA cricket in over a decade is M S Dhoni himself. Not only does he head the Indian Cricket team but also captains the beleaguered Chennai Super Kings side, whose "enthusiastic Honorary member " is now in the dock for alleged betting in the Indian Premier League. There were four occasions when Dhoni was quizzed over the controversy:
- What do you have to say over the recent spot fixing controversy in the IPL?
- You are the captain of the Indian cricket team. This is Indian cricket's biggest crisis since 2000 and yet we haven't heard from you. Why is there no voice from your side? A Why are you silent over this scandal?
- Can you guarantee to the citizens of India that there won't be any spot fixingA in the Champions Trophy?

Mayor-President Kip Holden is scheduled to give his annual State of the Parish address to the Rotary Club of Baton Rouge at noon Wednesday.
Holden, who has been largely quiet on efforts to create a new city in the southern part of the parish, is expected to use the speech as an opportunity to speak out against the St. George incorporation attempt.
“You’ll hear my comments (about St. George),” Holden said of his speech plans during a recent radio interview. “Once and for all, I’ll make a definitive point.”
Supporters of St. George’s creation claim to have more than half of the signatures they need to put their proposal on a ballot for voters to decide. They have planned a $125-per person fundraiser later this month.
Meanwhile, a grassroots group of residents frustrated by a lack of clear opposition has formed to oppose St. George incorporation efforts, and a group of business leaders are expected to push a campaign against the proposed city.
During last year’s State of the Parish address, Holden focused his remarks mostly on crime.
He urged Gov. Bobby Jindal to hold off on state budget cuts to mental health and domestic violence programs, saying “Fallout from this endangers cities and public safety.”


TIBER secured their spot in the cup third round after firing in five goals against Tantallon on Saturday.
Dale Andrews started the scoring on 12 minutes, before helping to double the lead three minutes later with his good work on the right setting up Davy Kirkland to score.
On the half hour mark, Dave Smith smashed a shot past the keeper to make the score 3-0, which is how it stayed until half-time.
In the second half, Tiber continued to dominate the game. Just after the hour, Owen Quigley crossed for Kirkland to score his second and Tiber’s fourth.
With four minutes to go, Quigley drove through the Tantallon defence and was pulled down in the box. Dave Smith stepped up to score from the spot.
Tiber will be at home to County Thistle in the third round of the cup this Saturday.

UN rights boss asks US for facts on bin Laden killing
* Navi Pillay says counter-terrorism operations must respect law
* Calls for U.S. to provide "precise facts" of his killing
* But says his deed amounted to crimes against humanity.
"In respect of the recent use of deadly force against Usama bin Laden, the United States of America should disclose the supporting facts to allow an assessment in terms of international human rights law standards," Christof Heyns, the expert dealing with extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, and Martin Scheinin, who deals with human rights and counter-terrorism, said in a joint statement.
It has not taken long for the United Nations to respond to the raid into Pakistan, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Navanethem Pillay called Thursday for a “full disclosure of the accurate facts” on Usama bin Laden’s killing. What other facts is there to disclose other than accurate facts?. The United States located the worlds number one terrorist, hiding out or being hidden by Pakistan's in Abbottabad , Pakistan, this is an accurate fact. Without Pakistan's consent or knowledge, the United States entered Abbottabad Pakistan, the Navy Seals located Usama Bin Laden and killed him within his million dollar compound, mere yards from the Pakistan Military National Academy. Here is another accurate fact Navi, Bin Laden was a cold blooded terrorist killer, having killed thousands of Americans on 9/11 and has killed countless others for no reason in many other countries. Why did you not call on Bin Laden and address with him his human rights violations? That makes about as much sense as you calling out the United States on human right violations. Those are the cold hard facts that the United Nations needs to concern themselves with, nothing else. That is a true accounting of the facts. In my opinion, if the United Nations wants precise answers into Bin Laden's killing, they should elect to ask the Pakistan government how it was that Usama Bin Laden had been hiding in Abbottabad, Pakistan for the past 5 to six years right under the governments nose. How could that be? It seems that it would have been in Pakistan's best interest to have found UBL or had given him up,(wink, wink) they could have hood winked the American people, the Congress in to believeing that they are on our side in this war on terror and would have gained much needed respect had they captured or killed Bin Laden themselves; Pakistan's aid package may have even been increased, however complacency set in, and the United States located UBL, in Pakistan's backyard. It appears that someone within the Pakistan government was very comfortable that Bin Laden would not be located, and had he been located, someone would have had ample time to get him (Bin Laden) relocated. To me, those are the questions the United Nations should be asking Pakistan.
know this, Washington is responsible for 22 percent of the core U.N. budget and more than 25 percent of its peacekeeping costs and lawmakers are ready to cut spending on the United Nations by hundreds of millions of dollars. I hope they do, I would support this issue. Why is it that the Unites States is the first called upon for assistance around the world to keep the peace, or to root out dictator's. The United States is the first to toss in tax dollars to support the United Nations, and the first to be criticized and kicked in the cajones by the majority of the world. We are at times the biggest suckers around, we are the most generous country in the world. However, when the crap hits the fan, we are the first country that is called, for the most part, we are ready to help, without being asked. However I believe it is time we take care of our own business and of ourselves first; as other countries around the the world with the exception of a few, will let us sink to the bottom of the deepest part of the ocean, just take a look at the voting record and look at how many of the countries we have supported in the past, and these same countries have stuck it to us...it is just amazing...you only need to kick me in the mouth just once, before I take my ball and go home........

Well, it is time for the United States to take our ball and go home, the only time anyone wants the United States is when they want our money or our Military, I say the heck with them. We have enough natural resources to produce our own gasoline and anything we need, if we had a President of the United States would just promote our own resources instead of depending on others. However he will not. Obama would rather be dependent on borrowing from China and others. Chances are, he will be re-elected to another 4 years, and polish off economically what is remaining of the United States. Obama will attempt to ride the killing of Bin Laden straight to the White House, chances are, he will succeed. Some people will over look the dying economy, the loss of jobs, the loss of the United States STATURE in the world and give him 4 for years to finish us off.
In closing, I want you to take this and chew on it, a new "World Religion" was presented before the United Nations body and was backed by the United Nations, this is what our tax dollars are going for. Now we are going to have the United Nations attempt force feed us a "World Religion" well you know what they can do with that. This is just one of the reasons I am fed up with the United Nations...yeppers my friend, my cup runneth over...how about yours??
Until Next Time......God Bless You and May God Bless America

LOS ANGELES — The Sharks continued to have problems scoring even-strength goals in their 4-3 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday, but at least their power play was on target in its final tuneup before the playoffs.
All three San Jose goals came with a man advantage. And even the one that looked like a fluke play — a second period shot from the point by defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic that ended up as a double deflection before going into the Kings net — turned out to be something the team had been practicing.
“We got lucky because it hit both our sticks,” said left wing Milan Michalek, who first got a piece of the puck before center Joe Pavelski tipped it into the Los Angeles net. “But it was a play we worked on the other day and it worked.”
That goal came at 13:23 and narrowed the Kings’ lead to one goal, but the Sharks could get no closer.
The Sharks took a 1-0 lead on right wing Devin Setoguchi’s power play goal at 5:41 of the first period when a shot by defenseman Christian Ehrhoff hit Setoguchi’s skate and he was able to control the puck, reach around and put it behind Kings goalie Jamie Quick.
But the Kings scored the next three goals — Michal Handzus, Alexander Frolov and Wayne Simmonds doing the honors — leaving the Sharks down 3-1 early in the second period.
Pavelski’s tip-in made it 3-2, but the Kings got that one back early in the third period after a misplay between Sharks right wing Claude Lemieux and defenseman Brad Lukowich ended up in the San Jose net off the stick of Kings defenseman Peter Harrold.
Sharks captain Patrick Marleau’s one-timer off a pass from defenseman Rob Blake at 9:19 of the third brought the Sharks within one goal, but that’s where the comeback attempt ended.
Defenseman Rob Blake finished the regular season with twice as many games in the NHL as teammate Dan Boyle. Saturday’s game was the 1,200th for Blake and the 600th for Boyle. Blake, who played most of those 1,200 games with the Kings, continued to get booed inside the Staples Center each time he touches the puck. … Left wing Jody Shelley exchanged punches with Kings left wing Raitis Ivanans in the second period. The fight was Shelley’s 16th of the season and his second with Ivanans. … Forward Jeremy Roenick and defenseman Alexei Semonov were healthy scratches. Jonathan Cheechoo missed his second game with an unspecified lower body problem. … The Sharks are continuing their past policy and keeping all postseason practices closed to the public.

text: This study surveyed the prevalence of postnatal depression and demographic factors associated with it in a Swedish population. A community sample of 1,584 women was screened at 8 and 12 weeks postpartum using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS). The point prevalence of depression, using a threshold of 11/12 on the EPDS, was 12.5% at 8 weeks and 8.3% at 12 weeks postpartum. The period prevalence for 8 to 12 weeks postpartum was 4.5%. A significantly increased risk of postnatal depression was found for single women. Parity, maternal age and occupational status were not found to be related to postnatal depression. The findings suggest that screening for postnatal depression is feasible at the time of postnatal checks on the baby, and that it can aid in the identification of women at risk for depression. A two-stage screening procedure will identify women at risk for more persistent postnatal depression.

How cloud affects a business's digital ambitions
Kyocera Document Solutions SA will host a panel on "Moving to the cloud: How it can affect a business's digital ambition and journey"' at ITWeb Cloud Summit 2019, to be held at The Forum in Bryanston, on 12 February.
JP Lourens, software product manager at Kyocera Document Solutions SA, who will moderate the panel, says: "As most are aware, the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has come into effect, and has in some way had an effect on a lot of local businesses."
As for the Protection of Personal Information (POPI) Act, he notes SA's information regulator has given the business community one year after commencement to become compliant. "Government has set the date for the first quarter of 2019, with a one-year grace period."
The panel will cover several topics on what this means. "This will include why POPI and GDPR are important when considering moving to the cloud, as well as understanding the importance of information storage and data storage when moving systems and infrastructure to cloud providers, and the impact it will have on ensuring personal information conforms to these standards."
Lourens says when companies map out their cloud journey, they should understand the impact it will have on their digital transformation journey too.
"We will cover what organisations are hoping to achieve, and why they should consider going digital. For example, is the company looking to move file servers and unstructured content to the cloud, and if yes, why? In addition, if the organisation's ambition is to adopt cloud, but is printing documentation from the cloud for the purpose of digitising it again at a later stage, why bother printing in the first place?"
Another question he says businesses need to ask themselves is whether the cloud will allow them to implement their digital plans and become more efficient, while working smarter and not always harder.
Delegates attending the Kyocera panel will gain an understanding of how they can leverage cloud technologies to streamline business processes, automate workflows, digitise paperwork and enable machine-to-machine communication.

WRC 3 Monte-Carlo Screenshots Released
Recently, we brought you the latest trailer for World Rally Championship 3, but this morning Milestone and PQube have released some new screenshots showing off the Monte-Carlo stage.
The snowy peaks of Monte-Carlo look pretty nice in the official video game of the FIA World Rally Championship, we think you’ll agree. To ensure 100% accuracy, the developers spent some time there (lucky them!) to analyse, evaluate and take photos.
WRC 3 Game Director, Sébastien Pellicano says:
Realism and a true racing experience for every gamer. That’s the goal we’re pursuing.
WRC 3 will be released in October for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Windows PC. A PlayStation Vita version will follow.
