LAKEPORT — Missing nearly half their team, the Middletown Mustangs barely escaped with a 40-33 win over Upper Lake during a Coastal Mountain Conference wrestling tri-meet on Wednesday night in Lakeport.
The understrength Mustangs didn’t fare nearly as well in their second dual, falling 60-15 to the Clear Lake Cardinals.
“Clear Lake went from having a small group a year ago to a big group with lots of good wrestlers this year,” Middletown head coach Brian Hunt said. “They’ve got a solid group of kids.”
Middletown’s only winners in contested weight classes against Clear Lake were Anthony Nudy by first-round pin at 160 pounds, Xander Romero by technical fall at 113 pounds, and Filemon Sanchez by major decision at 126 pounds.
Against Upper Lake, the Mustangs won only three of seven contested weight classes but picked up enough forfeit points to beat the Cougars. The dual was 34-33 in Middletown’s favor going to the final match of the night at 152 pounds where Jackson Bomberry pinned Mallory Henry to secure the team victory for the Mustangs.
Middletown’s other winners were Romero by major decision over Dylan Slater at 120 pounds and Joziah Pyzer by pin over Robby Harper at 145 pounds.
Upper Lake winners were Tatum Salas by pin over Kamilah Chairez at 113 pounds; Rene Diaz by pin over Sanchez at 126 pounds; Dena Loans Arrow by pin over Parker Boden at 132 pounds; and Cody Banks by pin over Ruben Cortez at 138 pounds.
Middletown is now 3-1 in CMC action.
Clear Lake beat Upper Lake 48-24 in the late dual to square its conference record at 2-2. Upper Lake is 1-3. Upper Lake winners in contested matches were Tatum Salas at 106 pounds, Cody Banks at 138 pounds, and Bradley Sneathen at 220 pounds.
Clear Lake individual match results were not reported.

European Football Teams of Winemakers kick off with a variety of ideas on wine, football and education
Headquarters at Hochschule Geisenheim University – resolution on European symposium and scholarship
All eight participating nations in UENFW, the Union of European National Football Teams of Winemakers (Verband der europäischen Fußballnationalmannschaften der Winzer e.V. – www.unefw.com), gathered in the town hall the Czech city of Znojmo in mid-November for its first official general meeting. The focus was on planning VINOEURO 2020, the European winegrowers' football championship, which will be held in Znojmo, Mikulov and Uherské Hradiště. The final will take place on May 23, 2020 in the Miroslav Valenta Municipal Stadium in Uherské Hradiště. The patron is Miroslav Kadlec, still very well known in the Palatinate region as a former Bundesliga player for 1. FC Kaiserslautern. In the preliminary round, the German team will face Italy, Switzerland, and defending champions Slovenia. Sports director and team manager Michael Apitz, otherwise known for his art, and co-trainer Jürgen Fladung, vice-president of SV Wehen Wiesbaden, say that this is a very difficult group, but they still want to focus on winning the title. WEINELF were the runners-up twice at the European Championships; in 2014 they won the European Championship in Switzerland with a 3:2 victory over Hungary. The team was awarded the Deutsche Weinkritik prize in 2018.
UENFW was founded in 2018 with the aim of enhancing the organization of the cultural assets of wine, football and education at a European level. The focus is not only testing each other’s skills on the pitch, but also on enjoying great wine together at celebrations after the match. In this context, a partnership with the European "Wine in moderation" program is well received and supported.
In spring UENFW Honorary President Dr. Franz Josef Jung, General Secretary Erica Fischbach and President Robert Lönarz had the opportunity to visit EU Commissioner Günter Oettinger in Brussels to discuss key issues relating to the development of the Union. Applications to participate in European programs are pending.
“We have taken an important step forward,” said President Robert Lönarz on the outcome of the almost four-hour conference. In addition to football and wine, education will also be a key element of VINOEURO going forward. In this regard, UENFW will invite researchers from all eight countries to establish a European symposium on topical issues for winemakers. In 2020 experts from, among others, Geisenheim, Brno, Pisa, Lisbon, Wädenswil and Maribor will be working on the topic of climate change. A related excursion and a football match against Brno University of Technology are also being planned by Geisenheim students.
“We are particularly proud of the unanimous decision to award a European UENFW scholarship,” added Lönarz. The scholarship will awarded to take place during each VINOEURO and will provide young people with a two-week, free-of-charge insight into top universities and leading businesses in currently eight European countries. “We want to pass on the diversity and knowledge acquired through our active friendship in the wine industry in Europe to young people. As winegrowers, we play football for our home countries, but we are all committed Europeans sharing in the great cultural assets of wine, football and education.”

American University is one of the many landmarks of the Washington DC cityscape, bringing nearly 15,000 students into its hallowed halls. These bright minds enrich themselves on one of three main campuses that stretch across the Northwest quadrant of Washington DC, either living in on-campus housing or in apartments, condos, and nearby homes.
This year, however, it is likely that more students than usual will be looking for somewhere to live off-campus. American University recently informed its enrollees that student housing would be limited to single-occupant dormitories, in order to comply with social distancing recommendations. Furthermore, priority for these dorms would be given to first-year and transfer students, with sophomores getting second dibs on any remaining rooms. This is a large adjustment from their traditional policy of ensuring two years of on-campus housing to any students who want it.
All told, these dormitories will be available to somewhere around 2,300 American University students — but what about the other 12,000 attendees?
Luckily, American University is in a thriving and vibrant metropolis, so there are plenty of great options in nearby neighborhoods for students to live!
American University Park
For students who are interested in buying or renting a single-family, detached home, there are few neighborhoods that offer more convenience than American University Park. As one might suspect, American University Park is a community that lies in close proximity to the educational institution that bears the same name.
The neighborhood lies directly north of American University’s primary campus, along the Northwestern edge of Washington DC. To the west, American University Park marks a border between the District of Columbia and the state of Maryland.
American University Park is laid out in a way that creates a tight, communal atmosphere. Many of the homes do not feature full length driveways and sit on shady, tree-lined streets. This layout gives a sense of tranquility without cutting residents off from the conveniences and local entertainment of DC.
To the east of American University is Cathedral Heights, one of the hottest neighborhoods in Washington DC. Like American University Park, Cathedral Heights has plenty of single-family homes near the school, although there are options for apartment buildings and condominiums along Wisconsin Avenue and Cathedral Avenue. The neighborhood is also characterized by the classic DC rowhome.
The most prominent landmark — and namesake — of Cathedral Heights is the Washington National Cathedral. This Episcopal cathedral, bearing the full name of the Cathedral Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul in the City and Diocese of Washington, is one of the most prominent features of the local skyline. As one of the largest buildings in DC, and one of the tallest church structures in the nation, residents are sure to be awestruck at the neo-gothic majesty of the cathedral in their backyard.
If you are looking for somewhere to live that offers several different housing options, all with a twist of historical beauty and convenient access to American University, then Cathedral Heights might be the perfect choice for you.
Sitting to the north of American’s main campus, Tenleytown is a great option for students who want convenient access to both American University and the rest of DC. Like much of Northwest DC, Tenleytown is characterized by detached, single family homes, often in a colonial style. However, the neighborhood is starting to become the premier scene for new condos in DC as the neighborhood has seen an increase in condominium development over the past few years, with new luxury condo properties in Tenleytown cropping up.
Like Cathedral Heights, Tenleytown bears a throughline of historical significance. The neighborhood, which marks the highest elevation in the District of Columbia, is also the site of now-defunct Fort Reno. This military entrenchment was constructed in the winter of 1861, the first year of the U.S. Civil War, after the Union Army faced defeat at the First Battle of Manassas. The fort and surrounding sites served a role in the Battle of Fort Stevens, the only skirmish of the Civil War that touched the District’s soil. Today, Fort Reno is one of the DC area’s beautiful parks, with plenty of spaces of recreational activity and an entertainment venue.
Even for those residents who care little about the historical significance, Tenleytown has an undeniable allure. The neighborhood is also the site of the nearest metro station to American University, the Tenleytown-AU Metro Station. This means that people who choose to live in the neighborhood have convenient access to the rest of DC — as well as Arlington VA and Alexandria VA — by way of the Red Line. Residents can, therefore, cut down on time spent in DC’s famously frustrating traffic!
To make it even better, American University traditionally operates a shuttle between the Tenleytown metro stop and their campus, so you can get back and forth between the two with ease.
Of the listed neighborhoods, Woodley Park is the farthest from the main campus of American University. It is a larger neighborhood, sitting to the southeast of AU. Unlike many of the more northern communities, which feature a lot of detached housing, Woodley Park offers the traditional DC row home as its most notable style.
In fact, although the areas surrounding Woodley Park — like the northern stretch of Connecticut Avenue — have been redeveloped to high-rise apartment buildings, the well-preserved Woodley Park still features the classic row home. This, combined with the relative tranquility afforded by the tree-lined streets, makes Woodley Park a wonderful option for American University students looking for off-campus housing.
But, if the neighborhood is so much farther out, why include it in this list? Well, Woodley Park exists as a sort of gateway between the northwestern extent of DC and the other quadrants of the District. Woodley Park has gained a reputation for having a more active nightlife than some of the sleepier neighborhoods of NW DC, and the recent addition of a shuttle bus that runs into the entertainment heart of DC means that residents can quickly and easily get to where the action lives.
On top of that, Woodley Park has its own metro stop, the Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan Station, servicing the Red Line, which allows residents to enjoy everything the DMV has to offer. And, as the metro stop name belies, people living in Woodley Park have premium access to the DC Zoo, with all of the beauty and majesty therein!
No matter where you choose to live near the American University campus, it’s important to make sure that you are getting the best deal possible. A lot of university students are interested in living in Washington DC on a budget, and housing can often be a big cost in the hot real estate market of DC.
That’s why, no matter the decision that you make, it’s important to work with real estate professionals who can help you get the best possible deal! At the Keri Shull Team, we specialize in helping you find the right property for sale or for rent and making sure that your offer is the most compelling, without necessarily being the most money.
So if you are ready to take the next step in finding the perfect off-campus home, then you need to contact the Keri Shull Team today! Our expert agents are standing by to help you, so just click here to schedule a time for a free consultation to determine your needs!

Feet of linear projection
We faced an interesting challenge of three different objectives that needed to be met: 1. honour the retirement of former Executive Director Pierce Handling; 2. celebrate and empower women; 3. raise funds for TIFF’s Share Her Journey campaign. Ready for the task, we built a program and show flow that accomplished all three. So impressed, when Handling eventually took the stage, he ripped up his original retirement remarks and instead honoured the women who had been so important in his life, especially his mother.
Nearly 600 people attended dinner at the Royal York, with a few hundred more joining them for later an after-party celebration. Guests were welcomed onto the TIFF red carpet, before entering the Royal York where they were greeted by a female DJ and served cocktails and canapes. The perimeter of the ballroom was completely draped, covering the about-to-be-revealed technology. As the night unfolded, the drapes were dropped, lighting up a series of projection screens that provided the canvas for the evening – showcasing women in film, both behind and in front of the camera. This was truly a female empowerment moment, driven by an all-female orchestra. The after party was developed with a movie concession theme, featuring a massive candy station, popcorn, and a movie video dance party. The band Dwayne Gretzky performed music from film, with footage playing from the movie in question on an LED screen behind the band.
The true Whizbang moment was the crazy collaboration that was undertaken to build the event, especially in terms of assembling the all-female orchestra. Thirteen women were brought together, ranging from with Broadway singers to a hip hop group.
It was truly a coming together of talented women with varied backgrounds and provided an international flavour to already unique event.

Low unemployment in South Florida
Unemployment declined in South Florida last month, showing signs of strengthening mixed by evidence that a slow recovery of employment may be getting bogged down.
Miami-Dade scored particularly well on some indicators, it ranked second in the state for annual employment growth and saw its unemployment rate down to the fastest in nearly 20 years, from 13 percent in July to 12.2 percent in August. The 13.900 jobs added during the last 12 months in Miami-Dade come from all sections of the economy, health services, the retail industry and restaurants in the forefront. In the rest of Florida, only the Tampa area added more jobs.
“Miami is still inching forward,” said Mark Vitner, economist at Wells Fargo. “Any place that has strong ties to the global economy appears to be doing reasonably well”.
Friday’s report continues to show an area hit by the worst job market in 30 years, and the details point to some persistent problems and disturbing trends.
The Broward County job growth slowed, with unemployment slightly lower, 9.7 percent to 9.5 percent. After adjusting the figures for seasonal changes in terms of recruitment, payroll stalled in Miami-Dade in July and August, the first time since December that the county did not add jobs a month to month. Broward similar adjustments in the month also showed weaker hiring in 2011.
But in general, preliminary figures suggest that South Florida did not suffer a blow in August in front of the hiring, despite national economic problems among those who counted a strong collapse of the Stock Exchange , plummeting consumer confidence and predictions of a second recession may be underway.

This charming, lighthearted Regency, written in three parts by bestsellers Quinn (Ten Things I Love About You), James (A Kiss at Midnight), and Brockway (The Golden Season), delivers wit and heart with every page. Lady Carolyn Finchley hosts a house party to find a match for her horse-mad brother, Hugh Dunne, earl of Briarly. Hugh (who compares the season's top debutante to the "one foal that everyone thinks will breed a winner") and two other exceedingly eligible gents mingle with Miss Gwendolyn Passmore, who conceals awkwardness with arrogance; the straight-speaking Miss Katherine Peyton; and Hugh's recently widowed childhood friend Lady Georgina Sorrell. The romance's cheerful tone and key plot points carry through seamlessly as each author takes the reins, making three matches for the price of one. (Jan.)

Thiruvananthapuram, March 25 (IANS) Leader of Opposition V.D.Satheesan on Saturday slammed Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan over thrashing of Congress workers who took to the streets to protest disqualification of Rahul Gandhi as Lok Sabha MP.
He accused the Chief Minister Pinarayi of playing a game to please Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
"On the one hand, Vijayan criticised the action on the Congress scion, but on the other, his police on Friday late evening thrashed the Youth Congress taking out protests march against the highhandedness against Gandhi by the BJP government. We have got enough evidence that the thrash order came from the CM's office," Satheesan alleged.
"With the Damocles sword hanging over Vijayan on account of a few cases currently under probe, he has to please Modi and that's what happened when our activists were roughed up and cases registered against several protesters," added Satheesan.
He further said that the entire Congress-led UDF has decided to strongly protest the "autocratic" ways of the Modi government.
Since Rahul Gandhi represents the Wayanad constituency, hence numerous protests were witnessed across the state after his disqualification from the lower House following a Surat court's verdict.

Students were treated to an array of guest speakers as Lankershim Elementary School celebrated its 19th Annual Career Awareness Week in Highland June 6, 2013. The four-day event brought 100 speakers to speak to students and educate them about a variety of career choices. “I like how we learn new stuff that we can use in the future,” said fourth grader Skyler Moreno, 10. Program coordinator Gail Shaw touts the uniqueness of the event as being a week-long event rather than one-day event. “The kids need to be exposed to the limitless opportunities available to them as they get older,” said Shaw. “Its never to soon to start that readiness process and get them interested in careers now.”

BioVentrix has announced the initiation of a phase II clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of its Revivent Myocardial Anchoring System for use in Less Invasive Ventricular Enhancement (LIVE) procedures in patients with heart failure. The phase II study commenced in Western Europe under the guidance of Louis Labrousse, professor of Cardiovascular Surgery, Hopital Haut-Leveque, Bordeaux-Pessac, France.
“The results from our first LIVE procedure using the Revivent Myocardial Anchoring System on a 58-year-old male with symptomatic heart failure confirm the safety and efficacy of this novel technique,” said Labrousse. “The left ventricle end diastolic volume decreased by 45% and the left ventricle end systolic volume decreased by 53%, while ejection fraction improved from 26% to 36%.
“Because this procedure was performed on a beating heart without the risks of a ventriculotomy or the need for cardiopulmonary bypass, the recovery of the patient is significantly faster. Our patient was released from the intensive care unit within two days of the LIVE procedure and released from the hospital within 10 days of undergoing treatment due to the excellent progress in recovery. Additionally, this was the first BioVentrix patient to be treated with an indwelling implantable cardioverter defibrillator. This further demonstrates that the Revivent technology can be applied to a broad spectrum of heart failure patients in various stages of treatment,” continued Labrousse.
The phase II, 50-patient study will take place at up to 25 institutions throughout the European Union, and will be limited to patients whose heart failure is due to ischaemic cardiomyopathy. The primary safety endpoint will be an assessment of the overall rate of serious adverse events during a 12-month follow-up period, and the primary efficacy endpoint will be assessment of a measurable decrease in left ventricle volume by either an echocardiogram or a cardiac magnetic resonance exam at six months, and at one year.
“BioVentrix has clinically proven the benefits of LIVE using the Revivent system as evidenced by improved clinical outcomes from patients treated to date,” said Tessa Yamut, vice president of regulatory and clinical affairs at BioVentrix. “In fact, data to be released later this month demonstrate that 12-month outcome measures show a clear trend in quality of life improvement from pre-operative evaluation.
“Our phase II study provides us the opportunity to broaden our clinical experience base amongst leading heart failure institutions throughout the European Union, as well as expand awareness of our promising, innovative technique,” said Yamut.
Earlier this year, BioVentrix presented six-month results of a phase I trial demonstrating safety and feasibility of the Revivent system for use in LIVE procedures. Results from the 26-patient trial indicate that the BioVentrix approach is an impactful method of treating ischaemic heart failure. Left ventricle volume reduction was accomplished in all 26 patients. Post-procedure follow-up included serial echocardiograms to measure the function of the left ventricle, six-minute walk tests, New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class assessment, and quality of life questionnaires at one, three, six and 12 months.

“Spain,” of course, is code for a switch to Real Madrid, who overhauled their squad this summer, or a move to his former club Barcelona. But with the summer waning, Barca and Madrid have been less than keen to offer what PSG are asking for.
Real is said to have tempered its cash-deficient offer by essentially throwing anyone not named Eden Hazard into the mix, along with as much as $133 million in cash. PSG shrewdly wants no part of that deal unless rising Brazilian star Vinicius Jr. is involved. This seems to be a non-starter for Real.
Barcelona, which is rumored to have insulted the PSG brass during the two clubs’ initial talks, was at one point thought to be offering Philippe Coutinho and Ivan Rakitic, along with $112 million. But with Coutinho having been shipped off to Bayern Munich in a loan deal, and PSG really wanting winger Ousmane Dembele or right back Nelson Semedo, Barcelona’s last play here is rumored to be a proposed loan deal, which PSG is expected to reject.
Now, out of nowhere, Serie A giant Juventus has come out of the mist to throw its name in the ring, offering up Argentinian attacker Paulo Dybala and $111 million. But seeing as that almost certainly won’t pass muster for PSG given Dybala’s inconsistency over the years, there is now talk of Barca, PSG, and Juventus pulling off an NBA-esque three-way deal involving Dybala, Rakitic, Dembele and Luis Suarez, all just to move Neymar to Barcelona.
As Neymar rots away in a prison of his own making, the entire affair has devolved into a sideshow outside of the actual transfer itself.
Neymar, for his part, hasn’t spoken out publicly about a desire to leave, making it seem like he’s actually on the fence about leaving Paris. This is a preposterous notion.
This is a transaction that, on paper, could have and should have been wrapped up in June. These are clubs that have the spending power of small-to-medium-sized nations, and could make this deal happen with a few emails and a Venmo request. So it’s worth asking: What in the hell is going on here?
Well, aside from the usual blunders by PSG’s inept front office, which is perpetually a few dollars away from getting hit with a transfer ban, the club is apparently held up on wanting to recoup the vast majority of that $253 million it carelessly spent to bring Neymar to the Parc des Princes.
But PSG is out here grossly overestimating the amount of leverage it has in this situation, and what it fails to realize is that Barca and Madrid do not need Neymar as much PSG needs to get rid of Neymar.
Despite dropping points at Atletico Bilbao on Friday, Barcelona still have a very productive Messi, along with Luis Suarez, Ousmane Dembele, and new Ajax arrival Frenkie de Jong providing a formidable presence. Madrid went out this summer and signed Eden Hazard — who spent his summer carbo-loading — and potential-laden Luka Jovic to try and fill the Ronaldo-sized hole left on the pitch when the star moved to Juventus in 2018.
But isn’t Neymar an otherworldly talent worth whatever price tag a team throws on him, you ask?
Perhaps, but would you want to deal with Neymar breeding resentment in your best players and picking up significant injuries in the most crucial parts of the season, then have to explain why Neymar’s dad is causing drama in the stands with Manchester United legend Eric Cantona? (The answer is no. No you do not. Not at that price.)
This is how we got to late-August, with Barca and Real appearing content to wait things out until the final days of transfer window when they can call PSG’s bluff.
Don’t even bother trying to guess what happens from here on out, but I think we can all agree that the most entertaining outcome would be for PSG and Madrid to agree to a deal on deadline day, only for it to fall through because they couldn’t process the paperwork in time.

After a TikTok audio blending the piano introductions of both ABBA's 1979 hit "Chiquitita" and John's 1974 hit "Bennie and the Jets" went viral on the platform, the iconic Swedish pop group's Benny Andersson and 75-year-old "Rocket Man" singer teamed up to create a video soundtracked by the mash-up.
The clip begins with the opening piano part of "Chiquitita," which Andersson, 75, is seen playing on a black grand piano in what appears to be a recording studio. As the sound transitions into the instantly recognizable pounding piano riff at the start of "Bennie and the Jets," John appears onscreen, sitting at a brown grand piano before the camera pans to show an ear-to-ear grin on his face.
Posted to both musicians' official TikTok accounts, ABBA's caption reads, "Heard that 'Chiquitita' was trending again…with @Elton John!"
Meanwhile, the clip was shared to John's account alongside the caption, "Heard about this little mashup of Bennie and the Jets with @ABBA and had to get involved."
Titled "Benny and Chiquitita," the mash-up audio was uploaded by TikTok user @reymifasol and has since been used in more than 54,000 videos on the platform. It ranks above John's most-used official songs on TikTok, with "I'm Still Standing" appearing in around 35,000 videos.
For ABBA, on the other hand, the mash-up audio's video count doesn't come close to beating out their official TikTok sounds. "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" has been used in over 432,000 videos, while "Mamma Mia" ranks second with over 252,000 videos, followed by "Dancing Queen" with over 119,000 videos.
Andersson and John's joint TikTok marks the first collaboration between the two artists, both of whom saw their respective careers take off worldwide in the 1970s.
In 2017, John met with Björn Ulvaeus of ABBA for a casual hangout, and the pair posted a photo together on Twitter. "A true pop legend, Björn Ulvaeus, dropped in for tea at home yesterday," wrote John in the tweet.
— Elton John (@eltonofficial) November 29, 2017
Last year, John released an album titled The Lockdown Sessions featuring collaborations with Dua Lipa, Stevie Wonder, Stevie Nicks, Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile and Lil Nas X, among other musicians. He'll release a new version of 1972's "Tiny Dancer" featuring Britney Spears sometime this month, a music industry source recently confirmed to PEOPLE.
ABBA released its first album in nearly 40 years, the Grammy-nominated Voyage, last year. The 10-track set charted at No. 1 in several countries around the world, including the group's native Sweden and the United Kingdom.

The hottest issue these days is whether the legislation to increase the H-1B cap will pass or not. Negotiations on the H-1B cap have collapsed. Suddenly, the hi-tech lobby is fighting to keep alive the legislation to increase the number of H-1B workers that can be admitted into the United States.
Just after the 65,000 cap was reached in May, Senator Abraham's bill, s.1723, sailed through the Senate and it looked like industry would get a bill that would have increased the numbers. However, an odd alliance emerged between anti-immigrant Republican leader Lamar Smith in the House of Representatives and the labor friendly Clinton administration.
Shortly after the passage of the Senate bill, Lamar Smith also proposed legislation in the House that would have increased the cap but he included two riders that would effectively destroy the H-1B program. Smith's bill would require American companies seeking to import H-1B workers to make two attestations:
the employer has tried and failed to hire qualified American; and
that no U.S. workers were laid off to create vacancies for foreigners.
On July 16, the President issued a press statement indicating that if Congress sends him a bill that increases the cap on H-1B visas but does not contain the two attestations in Lamar Smith's bill, he will veto it.
There are only twenty days left before Congress goes out of session. The clock is ticking on this issue and one cannot take for granted that the cap will be lifted by the legislation. Estimates show that after new H-1B numbers are released in October 1998 and new H-1B visas are issued, the cap again will be reached as early as December 1998 and new H-1Bs would not be available again until October 1999.
Two Silicon Valley lawmakers, Representatives Tom Campbell, a Republican, and Zoe Lofgren, a Democrat, are trying to broker a compromise between the Senate bill, which the industry likes, and the current House version, which it hates. Even House majority Republican leader Dick Armey is trying to broker a compromise between Abraham and Smith. He proposed that the H-1B program remains intact and a new H-1 visa be created for additional numbers beyond 65,000 that would contain the attestations. But all his efforts have failed thus far. Smith refuses to budge.
This is really your last chance to act. Contact your Congressperson and consider urging him or her to support a raising of the H-1B cap without new anti-business attestation requirements.

Techno-centrism is the death of the city
How has your research in computing and robotics helped you to take a fresh approach to the urban question?
For me technology represents a way of understanding how urban spaces respond to functionality. By working in a quite pioneering manner on digital platforms with the goal of integrating heterogeneous systems, I have managed to grasp the ability of the digital realm to allow new services to emerge in a horizontal fashion. Digital platforms are tools that allow for the integration and cross-referencing of large quantities of highly differentiated data that can be linked together for new uses. In spite of all that, I quickly understood that techno-centrism would mean the death of the city in the sense that it erases the place of the living and the social interactions that are woven within it.
Eighty percent of the population of France live on twenty percent of its territory, and two percent of the surface of the planet today plays host to half of the world’s inhabitants. The city has therefore become a major issue. However, the first priority is for people to feel good within it. Therefore, I became interested in urban construction not only from the point of view of infrastructure and digital interactions, but through the prism of human beings, their needs, and the social appropriation of space. In a world where mankind has developed ubiquity, hyper-collectivity, and omnipresence, it is essential to establish a dialogue with the governance of the city, while at the same time favoring the strong participation of citizens at all times, and all of this over the mid and long term. The essential goal is to provide quality of life to the city’s inhabitants, to fight against the many inequalities in the urban environment, and to develop social inclusion, in a city that must be in harmony with nature and respectful of its balance.
Rather than speaking of the smart city, considering that the city is intelligent by definition, you prefer the idea of the “living city,” that you compare to an organism. What do you mean by this?
It is not enough to breathe to consider oneself alive. This is simply a metabolic ability, as essential as it may be. In the same way, it is not enough to be able to breathe in a city, to avail of clean energy or low energy buildings, nor even to enjoy a pollution-free environment. Human beings really come alive when they come into contact with society and acquire a capacity for creation and possibilities for co-construction and co-creation. Exchanging ideas constitutes the basis for the emergence of the living as a being, identified by a biological metabolism but also by the appearance of creative thinking, bringing new creations in its wake. This is the basis of evolution.
Smart city: The danger of the single model
I speak of a living city as I am quite opposed to the smart city in its technocentric dimension, even though I remain fully aware of the importance of these tools in urban transformation. I have come to disassociate myself from the tendencies of the major software companies who apply a copy-paste model of the intelligent city. According to this vision, a control center combined with the most powerful monitoring possible provides the city with its own intelligence. But running the coordination of traffic lights, sprinkling sensors around the city, and increasing the amount of silicon per square meter is not enough to ensure quality of life. I bitterly observe an international thinking that considers the mastery of technology as the solution to all our problems, even though it may generate dead cities. In Korea, the large projects of technological cities like Songdo—a prime example of the smart city—quickly became money pits and have already been deserted by the population. More and more neighborhoods are being built while ignoring the place of the human being and the importance of their relationships with others.
The essential issue is to find a cultural identity that allows one to feel that one is “from somewhere.” It is fundamental to understand the fragility of the planet upon which we live, and first and foremost that of the city, because it represents 75 percent of energy consumption, 80 percent of CO2 emissions, and 85 percent of the world’s wealth. While urban life is literally in the process of asphyxiating us, it remains an object of desire and tends to continue to spread further and further afield. Peaks in pollution have become endemic, biodiversity is experiencing a new crisis of extinction, social gaps are widening, access to water is increasingly unequal, populations are growing as is the need for food. In a world that is becoming increasingly fragile, cities are becoming easily destabilized, as the study of the risks of a centennial flood in Paris has shown. A simple look at our planet from east to west and north to south can be quite instructive, when one considers the damage caused by flooding, earthquakes, ecological crises, and catastrophes. Hence the importance of taking into account resilience, of reinventing common wealth and an approach to the living. Man is at the heart of the urban issue, it is he who holds the keys to improving his own living conditions.
Every city is a creative ecosystem
The living city is the ability to understand the other and the way that they interact with their socio-territorial-urban environment. Augustin Berque calls this relationship with the milieu the ecumene, updating the idea of anthropized lands already established by Eratosthenes in the third century A.D. At the beginning of his book he quotes the phrase from Jean-Marc Besse, “Between me and myself, there is the Earth.” The world is a whole and man, to cite Edgar Morin, has artificially separated things that are naturally connected. We are a part of a complex world, made up of transversal elements, or interrelationships and interdependencies. The living city is nothing other than a city that takes into consideration all of these relationships in order to allow the emergence of new ideas, practices, and creations.
The smart city is human before being technological. A city like Medellìn is a terrific example of resilience, reinvention, and low-tech creativity. Civil society’s involvement in the identification of its ills and in the desire to appease one of the most violent cities in the world—due to its domination by the mafia—has played a fundamental role. It was rebuilt in favor of life and gave birth, at that moment, to the Cities4Life movement that has taken on an international dimension. Yet, nothing can be taken for granted; impermanence is an element to be kept very much in mind when faced with the uncertainty of our future. There are also cities that die, like the industrial cities of the rust belt in the United States, which doesn’t mean that they cannot be reborn—look to Detroit for proof of this—through re-appropriation by citizens and in accordance with a do-it-yourself philosophy.
The living city is a creative ecosystem in which citizens and governance can exchange in a transversal manner, where the way in which things are built is no longer dictated by verticality of technology or of architecture. It is a question of a city that listens, in search of its rhythm, its breath, according to a process that unfolds over the long term.
The notion of a “living city” is profoundly connected to the idea of an “urban metabolism.” This image refers to the process of transformation that the city is capable of mobilizing at the heart of the environment from which it draws its resources. The absorption of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide, the filtering of blood, the beating of the heart, represent a functional basis that must be enriched by a new emergence. In this sense, I am extremely favorable to inter-city capillarity vis-a-vis nation states. The virtual hyper-metropolis SAN-SAN (San Francisco/San Diego) represents 68 million inhabitants, while the BOS-WASH (Boston/Washington) virtual hyper-agglomeration groups together 70 million inhabitants. These two clusters, theorized and identified by the visionary geographer Jean Gottmann in his 1961 book Megalopolis, reveal an urban vitality that is extremely different to that of the federal State, and we can see this for example on an electoral level. They are the ones who are today on the front lines of resistance to the policies of president Trump, who launched calls to respect environmental agreements, who fight to defend immigrants and numerous fundamental freedoms. This urban vitality forms a counter power to the nation-state that it is fundamental to maintain in order to preserve a human life that is both rich and plural.
A socio-technological hybridization to serve the living
In light of your experience with robotics and artificial intelligence, how do you envisage the way that the living will be taken into account, and its hybridization with technology in the construction of tomorrow’s cities?
The twenty-first century will be one of cities that go “beyond” metropolises, the century of ubiquity and algorithm-based intelligence, but also the century of other technological revolutions concerning nano-technologies, bio-systems, and AI which, when combined, will produce a new relationship for mankind with itself and with urban space. Some say that the city dweller has left to live in the digital and in social networks, but I consider that the opposite is true, that the digital is making itself an inevitable part of our lives. What I call socio-technological hybridization or even “reverse cyberspace” refers to how these things are gradually influencing our way of life.
The urban metabolism is today crystalizing around climate issues. This is clearly an issue of survival for humanity, that has never been as threatened as it is, and for the first time in its history, by its own activity. The city dweller today has a major role to play, one that requires pedagogy, commitment, and mobilization. The tech revolution and hybridization with biotech and nanotech can help to limit and even repair the impact of our past activity. Change is beginning to affect our way of thinking—the realization of the Anthropocene—of building—preferring wood to concrete—of discarding—in a circular approach—and even of considering other living things. The polycentric and multifunctional city, which I call the “quarter-hour city,” where essential services can be accessed in 15 minutes, should represent a living habitat in its chosen materials but also in what it hosts. It is absurd that our vital spaces—buildings, passages, common spaces, garages, learning spaces—so separated, remain empty 60 percent of the time. The concept itself of the way in which we build and what we build is in opposition to the urban metabolism. Nonetheless, I am ready, in a utopian mindset, to bet on humanism in thinking that this will change, to embrace another paradigm around the circular nature of the living, where respect for dignity and quality of life are at the heart of our urban concerns.

Lady Urchins close home slate with win
East Union’s Lady Urchins closed their regular season home play with a big win, routing Falkner 14-4 in 5 innings.
The Urchins totaled 15 hits during the game, with four doubles and a triple home run from senior Katey Hunt inside the first inning.
Hunt’s homer placed the first three runs on the board for East Union, the hit following a double by senior center fielder Savannah Alexander.
Falkner loaded the bases in the second, though the first score came in the third on a double home run for a 5-2 score after RBI’s from Raelee Bell and Samantha Lineberry.
A double from Stephanie Hardy added two runs, w hile Kallie Roberts plated another for Hardy on her own double hit for a 8-2 score.
A fielders choice on loaded bases added a single run for Falkner, while Hunt and Tianna Castillo earned RBI’s to place the game at 12-3.
Falkner’s last score arrived in the fifth, a base hit plating a run after a pop-fly ball advanced the runner to third.
The Urchins added two more runs, Bell and Rebecca Sheffield with the RBI hits, for the 10-run lead to close the game in five innings.
With the win, East Union advances to 19-6 for the season after taking the division 2-2A title with an undefeated run.
“I’ve said all season that this might be the best group I’ve ever had,” Head Coach Josh Blythe said, “They are in record, but they’ve played a great season. This game was really just for fun, something to send our five seniors out with. And they played well tonight, I’m happy with how things went.”
The Urchins will draw hosting duties for the first round of playoffs, which begin on Tuesday, Oct. 15.
The best-of-three series will be against either Baldwyn or Mantatchie, depending on which team draws the number two seed out of Division 1-2A.
‘It’s a little tougher this year, but I like it. We usually have a team from the Delta or somewhere, but this year its closer to home and harder competition. But we get to play at home first, which is an advantage and we are just going to have some fun and see what happens. You have to take it a game at a time,” Blythe said.
Combined, Baldwyn and Mantatchie have lost five games in the 2013 season.
The Lady Mustangs ended a 21-game winning streak for the Lady Bearcats when the two teams met for a division game last week.
The two face off for the final division match-up today, with the winner taking the division title and the loser earning the runner-up position.

This is not your typical coleslaw. I created this recipe to go with my fish tacos (find the recipe here), but I wanted a healthier version of the tradition mayo-base coleslaw.
My recipe does not use any mayo, and it also has a few HEALTHIER-FOR-YOU ingredients that kick up the flavor as well as the nutrition.
Give my recipe a try. I think you’ll like it. 🙂
- 2 bags (10-oz each) angel hair coleslaw (or 12 cups finely shredded cabbage)
- 6 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons blackstrap molasses (you can use honey, but the molasses is healthier for you…read more about its amazing health benefits here.)
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon celery seeds
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Stevia sweetener (or you can add 2 more tablespoons of honey)
Place the sliced cabbage in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Add the parsley.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and parsley.
Toss the ingredients together. Refrigerate the coleslaw until you’re ready to serve your meal. This will give it time to let the flavors meld.
Serve along with your favorite meal and ENJOY!

To discuss whether the recently described relationship between proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use and the risk of adverse kidney outcomes represents a causal relationship or is merely the result of confounding.A wave of observational studies has described an association between PPI use and the risk of development of chronic kidney disease and its progression to end-stage renal disease. The results are generally robust and remarkably consistent across different studies. The application of modern pharmacoepidemiologic methods to estimate the effect of a putative unmeasured or unknown confounder or set of confounders on the relationship of PPI use and risk of adverse renal outcomes suggests that confounding is unlikely to explain away the reported association.The constellation of evidence from all available studies suggests that PPI use is associated with increased risk of adverse kidney outcomes. Exercising vigilance in the use of PPI is warranted.

Governor Ralph Northam said in a press conference Friday that all school divisions in Virginia should provide some degree of in person education by March 15. Accomack and Northampton County Public Schools have had, with some brief interruptions, hybrid learning in place for the entire school year. Both counties offer in classroom instruction two days per week with online instruction two more days. As of now, it isn’t known if the in person component will be increased on the Shore.
Northam’s comments mainly concerned the availability of COVID vaccine and his hope that school systems will remain open during the traditional summer break to help students prepare for the 21-22 academic year.
Northam says every school division in Virginia should make at least some in-person schooling available by March 15, citing CDC guidance and research that shows coronavirus spread is rare in schools when proper safety measures are in place. Teachers are in the process of getting vaccinated and Northam emphasized how teachers have been prioritized for vaccines. Summer schooling will not be mandatory, but schools should prioritize it as an option. Northam says federal dollars are available to help.

Gum Recession Treatment At Home
I am positive you’ve heard the question, Can Receding Gums Grow Back? And maybe even wondered about it. In this article I’ll let you know exactly what causes receding gums and things you can do to help.
Receding gums happen whenever there is tooth loss. This normally happens within a time of adult hood, when a person loses plenty of teeth. Receding gums usually occur because the consequence of a disease known as periodontitis.
Periodontitis occurs when bacteria grow in the mouth which forms pockets that start spreading bacteria into the gum tissue. That is the reason why they appear to look as they are receding. Click Here To Know More About Gum Recession Treatment Without Surgery
1 way to understand if you’ve got receding gums is to pay a visit to your dentist and find an xray of your mouth. The perfect way to tell when you have receding gums would be always to see how long that they have been diminishing and when they are slowed at all. If they are not growing back, this really might be an indication that you’ve Gum Disease.
Receding gums usually start to shrink before the age of 20. I am only guessing here but it feels like the receding gums start off smaller and they simply continue to get smaller until they stop growing in any way. There are many ways which could cause gum disease.
Having excess plaque in the mouth may cause the gums to recede. You can also notice a thinning of the tissue onto the gum line, and in some instances that could cause the gums to begin to fallout.
Gum Recession Alternative Treatment
Healthy oral hygiene is crucial. Natural Mouthwash is a good means to prevent any future problems. A tooth extraction may be very painful.
When you find a lump, bumps, or spots in the gums, it is very important to find a physician right away.
As a mommy and wife, I’m made to wonder: Just how do Receding Gums Grow Back? The answer is clear, but many of us have never been taught about any of it. As the older period, it gets more challenging to provide care for their disorders and disabilities.
Receding gums are normally a complication of older age and different diseases that damage the mouth and throat. Therefore that the main question when it comes to elderly people would be, How can Receding Gums Grow Back? I’ll tell you now… they can’t.
It’s hard enough for people in their golden years, let alone an older person, who is undergoing oral surgery to fix this problem. Oral surgery can’t only hurt the patient, but it may also hurt the physician. It needs to be done under local or general anesthesia, and the physician is forced to leave the patient at the living room with Mother or Dad.
Unfortunately, Mom or Dad will sometimes do or say something that may violate the seal of your mouth. This sometimes happens as soon as a kid or even a parent provides the wrong answer in an exam or quiz, or it can occur after, after the patient has undergone surgery or a severe illness. Afterward a surgeon or the health care provider can not seal the patient up, so they can’t have an ordinary night’s sleep. There’s but one choice left.
Receding gums and healing scars are no problem. As there is no requirement to have surgery, the practice is quick and painless. Afterward a time period of recuperation and healing may follow, allowing patients to go back to work or school.
Treatment For Gum Recession
When the patients have no this problem, it will most likely be because they failed to follow through with a easy flossing regime. They ought to floss each day, and this would help eliminate plaque build up and also a buildup of bacteria that cause this condition.
Receding gums and a receding hairline might become considered a indication of an underlying illness which may be treated properly. Sometimes just proper diet plan and exercise might do the trick.
These illnesses are generally related to sleep apnea, and it is a common problem. It is a condition where the affected person can’t find any sleep and can’t breathe through their nose and mouth, making them awaken repeatedly during the nighttime.
This condition can be very dangerous. If the patient does not secure sufficient rest, they can faint from lack of oxygen or get pneumonia from a lack of proper ventilation. It could be fatal when the patient doesn’t require any sleep at all.
Before you blow off something similar to this as old news, please see this and think of it. It can happen for you! There’s absolutely no shame in being part of the shocking statistic.
Even if people believe that they don’t have any teeth, they can still have a receding gums. The main reason that this happens is due to tooth decay, and which causes the teeth to lose their color, which then causes the gums to recede.
A lot of people think this condition will never come back, but this can be really a misconception. If the patient has a receding hairline, receding gums, or possibly a dental problem that needs treatment, it may always occur. It’s just a matter of knowing just what direction to go about any of it.
Gum Recession And Treatment
Are you looking for answers about how to quit receding gums? If this is so, read on. Once you eliminate them, do they grow back? Yes but just in a very modest degree, and your toothbrush will be your very best friend in quitting their receding.
What is happening if you have receding gums? Basically, your toothbrush has become the most important tool you can use to fight this particular condition. You want to brush your teeth regularly to keep them healthy and strong. Brushing nightly, morning and night will help block the loss of your teeth.
In the event you’ve got receding gums, and also you forget to brush your teeth each night, then bacteria will begin to form. These bacteria are created by your own saliva. It helps break down the food that you eat, for example sugars, proteins and carbohydrates. This is an significant part our entire body, however, you want to utilize it wisely.
Our saliva helps clean our teeth, however it is also required to help prevent them from getting infected. If you don’t brush them on a normal basis, plaque builds upon the teethand it starts to decay and mold. You’ll discover tartar at the back of your teeth, and at times the front too.
The further plaque you have on your teeth, the more bacteria will thrive there. Once you do not brush them on a regular basis, these bacteria start to multiply, and then grow. Since they multiply, the natural oil onto your teeth becomes rancid, and the plaque can liquefy to the idea your teeth may be loose and also fall out.
Whenever you receive yourself a pit or gingivitis, the very first thing you can do is get your dentist drill a hole into your mouth and take a swab of one’s gums to see if it’s some other bacteria. You need to try not to eat large meals before you see the dentist’s office. Some of these bacteria aren’t destroyed by acids and will start to breed again. Once they get going , they can not be stopped.

So, I have been putting all of these thoughts to use. During times of nostalgic thinking, I make collages. I guess it how I articulate my thoughts into something a little more organized. Although, I wouldn't describe a collage as being organized. At least not mine:
As you can see, this is a jumbled mess of floral-pastel-overexposedness. I'm obsessed with anything and everything floral at the moment. Anything that makes me feel like a butterfly makes me happy. My back to school shopping list?
1. Floral Keds
2. New backpack
3. BUTTERFLY GARB
If you're confused as of what I am talking about, take a looksie:

Also, this band makes me so happy. Little Dragon, everyone.
Yukimi Nagano has such a dreamy, funky, unique voice. Whenever I listen to one of their songs, I get up and dance. Especially this one:
I think I will listen to all of their songs before I head to school.
P.S. Back to school shopping later today! Wooooohooo.

For parents who are feeling in the dark about their child's fascination with Pokémon, the Monopoly Pokémon Edition is just the game to turn on their lights. By joining in this game of traditional Monopoly with a Pokémon twist, parents learn firsthand about the characters and stories of Pokémon. Instead of buying property, houses, and hotels, players collect Poké centers or gyms. Buying a space means catching a Pokémon character. Players who catch all the characters of a color earn the badge for that gym. Playing tokens are Pokémon characters. The board looks much like classic Monopoly, but it features a Pokémon map in its center. "Go To Jail" is still where you'd expect it, so some things never change. --Lee Strucker

Educational and Enjoyable...you needn't be a Pokemon expert! Jan 05, 2000
Santa brought this for my 7 year old. As a kid I HATED Monopoly and rarely played it. I do not know much about the beloved Pokemon, either, but you don't need to know anything! We just loved this game. The games lasted 4-5 hours and the kids (7&10) sharpen their math skills with money counting and learn how to handle money on an adult level without even knowing it. You can shorten the game...but we never wanted to. It sure doesn't seem like the boring old Monopoly I remember as a kid. My 7 year old still crys when he has to mortgage property or lose a favorite Pokemon due to a competitor rolling double sixes but he always wants to play again! Nice family game!

pokemon monopoly Jan 04, 2000
My 8 year old son bought this game with money that he got for xmas and I ended up giving him half of the money back because after we played it,we all had so much fun we decided it would be a good game for family game night. Now we play it almost on a daily basis with him and he is learning to manage money (as good as you can at 8)and he has fun doing it. Thank You Parker Brothers for making this one.

My sons LOVE Pokemon Monopoly! Dec 29, 1999
My son placed this item on his wish list for Christmas and was delighted to have received it from a friend. I was skeptical, since they already had Monopoly, and Jr. Monopoly. Boy was I WRONG! They ADORE this set! I have played it a few times with them and find the game refreshingly different from the mundane rules of the original monopoly.

Pure Fun Feb 11, 2001
By stephen Garry
The pokemon edition of monopoly has got to be the best version that i have played. The concept of the game is more or less the same as the original. Instead of buying property you have to catch pokemon of the same colour, once you have collected all of the pokemon of one particular colour you earn a badge. Once you have a badge you can build a gym or a pokemon centre. (instead of houses and hotels) This version of pokemon will appeal to all ages even those who were't fans of the original as this game is so much fun

Every Aberystwyth student should feel that they have an opportunity to undertake their studies without fear of bullying or harassment. However, if you feel that you may have been treated badly, then we are here to help.
Acts of bullying or harassment committed because of a person’s identity often start with negative attitudes, beliefs, and stereotypes about others. These beliefs are embedded through exposure and repeated reinforcement by those around them.
These beliefs can often form prejudices in a variety of forms because of:
If left unchallenged these beliefs can lead to prejudicial and biased behaviour and potentially more serious acts of discrimination, hate and violence.
The definitions used within this guide are taken from the University’s Student Code on Dignity and Respect. A full list of unacceptable behaviours can be found on the University’s website.
Aber SU’s No Excuses campaign exists to empower others to be active bystanders and take action against instances of bullying, harassment, hate crime, sexual assault and other unacceptable behaviours.
What is bullying?
Bullying is defined as:
“...offensive, intimidating, malicious or insulting behaviour, an abuse or misuse of power through means intended to undermine, humiliate, denigrate or injure the recipient”.
An important aspect of bullying is intention, with no requirement to demonstrate an intention to bully, only that bullying occurred.
There are several forms of bullying, and these behaviours can take place between staff and students or between students themselves. These issues can occur wherever students gather, including, for example, where they live, work, study, play or volunteer (such as sports and societies).
For students, the most common types of bullying that are reported include:
What is harassment?
Harassment is defined as:
“...unwanted comments or conduct viewed as demeaning and unacceptable by the recipient or by any reasonable person. It may be intentional or otherwise; persistent or an isolated incident”.
Examples of harassing behaviours include:
Sexual harassment refers to unwanted sexual comments, sexual invitations, innuendos, and offensive gestures including catcalling, groping, pinching, or smacking an individual’s body. It also includes removing clothing without agreement or an individual(s) exposing themselves without consent; inappropriate physical contact, displaying sexually explicit material (on paper or electronically), inappropriate jokes of a sexual nature, indecent requests, or suggestions.
Racial harassment is behaviour which is offensive to the recipient and includes derogatory name calling, inappropriate jokes, comments or conduct based on the perception of race, colour, nationality, or ethnicity.
Harassment on grounds of sexual orientation includes homophobic remarks or jokes, threats to disclose sexuality, spreading malicious rumours and inappropriate questions regarding sexual activity.
Harassment on grounds of gender identity includes inappropriate displays of material that degrades a particular gender, such as a comic or other type of visual; comments or remarks that gender-degrade, such as inappropriate jokes or stories (especially if they are directed at a particular person or group of persons). Also insults or derogatory actions directed towards a person based on their gender; remarks that continue after the person has requested them to stop, or has indicated they are offensive; actual physical contact, assault, or interference with the person due to gender issues.
Aber students, like others, will have protection from harassment through key legislation. The key principles which apply to all of these pieces of legislation is that it does not matter whether a harasser intends to harass or not, but it is more important how the victim feels in context with how a reasonable person might view the particular behaviour.
Effects of bullying or harassment
The effects on the recipient of bullying and harassment vary from individual to individual. While this list is not exhaustive, it does give an indication of the symptoms that may occur:
Other unacceptable behaviours
As well as bullying and harassment there are several other behaviours that the Student Code of Dignity defines as unacceptable.
A hate incident is defined as:
“any incident which the victim, or anyone else, thinks is based on someone’s prejudice towards them because of (but not limited to) their race, religion, sexual orientation, disability or because they are transgender.”
A hate crime is an incident which reaches the threshold of a criminal offence.
Hate crimes and incidents can take many forms including:
Domestic violence is defined as:
“[any] abuse within all kinds of intimate or family-type relationships.”
Such abuse can be physical, sexual, psychological, or emotional, and can be actual, attempted or threatened. The abuse can begin at any time, in new relationships, or after many years together.
It can also include Coercive Control behaviours which intimidate, degrade, isolate and control, with the use or threat of physical or sexual violence.
Sexual abuse is defined as:
“any non-consensual sexual contact.”
Sexual abuse can happen to anyone and can include derogatory name calling, removing, or refusing to use contraception, deliberately causing unwanted physical pain during sex, deliberately passing on sexual diseases or infections and using objects, toys, or other items without consent to cause pain or humiliation.
You can find more information on sexual violence and abuse, including links to various support services in our Sexual Health and Relationships guide.
What to do if you have been affected?
If you believe you have been abused, assaulted, discriminated against, or harassed, by someone, don't blame yourself. Often perceptions of bullying or harassment may arise from a misunderstanding, or from a lack of awareness that a person’s behaviour has been offensive or distressing; in fact, both parties can often feel victimised by a formal investigative process.
The person raising the complaint should always be encouraged and supported where they feel comfortable to approach a person who they are alleging has bullied or harassed them to give examples of such behaviour, to discuss the situation and agree a way forward sometimes using mechanisms such as informal mediation.
However, such an informal approach is not always possible or appropriate, and for this reason the University has a separate Student Code on Dignity and Respect. These rules exist to set clear behavioural expectations about our responsibilities to ensure the dignity and respect of others, as well as the consequences for not doing so.
Any student can report a concern using the University’s online form whether in person, anonymously or as a third-party. Where you identify yourself, your report will be passed to a Student Adviser in the Advice and Money Service based in Student Services. They will contact you and advise you about your options for taking your concern forward, as well as discuss what support is available to you.
It’s important to understand that by submitting a report you are not initiating a formal complaint, which is often one of the options you will have when reporting a concern. Personal or identifiable information will not be disclosed to others without your consent, unless the university believe there is a risk to your or another individual's safety and wellbeing.
If you are nervous about approaching the University with a concern, the AberSU Advice Service can talk you through some of the potential options likely to be available to you, as well as information that could be helpful such as preparing a timeline of instances and recording evidence, be it text or images where appropriate.
You do not have to give details of any names when you come in to see us, but at least you will have all the information needed to make an informed decision on what to do next. We will assist you whatever decision you take, and if needed we can accompany you to any meetings where you would like support and representation.
We can also talk you through what support is available to you and how such concerns might be impacting other areas of your life, whether it’s academic work, living arrangements or relationships with others.
In addition to the support referenced above there are a range of charities and organisations that provide advice, information and support to individuals who are experiencing bullying and harrassment.
What can the AberSU Advice Service do to help?
The AberSU Advice Service is independent from the University and provides a free, confidential, and impartial service to all Aberystwyth University students.
The Advice Service can assist you in a range of ways, including:

The image of Tombstone, Arizona, doesn't often stray from its rough and tumble roots. Despite a tradition of gunslingers, gamblers, and cowboys, the town's businesses, hotels, and restaurants continually emphasized the boomtown's refinements, and nowhere was their promotion more apparent than in the foods of the town. The massive silver strike of 1879 gave rise to a number of grocery stores, butcher shops, ice cream parlors, and restaurants that spoke to a refined urban scene.
In this lively study, Sherry Monahan offers a brief history of Tombstone and the evolution of its increasingly sophisticated dining scene. Businesses that began in tents due to a lack of building supplies raced to keep up with the area's exploding population. Soon the town boasted restaurants to rival the finest establishments of San Francisco and the business district achieved fame for the availability of posh hotels and luxurious eating. Monahan includes 140 recipes from the 1880s, most from Tombstone restaurants, so that readers may experience their own taste of Tombstone.

Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA, previously DEXA) is a means of measuring bone mineral density (BMD). Two X-ray beams with differing energy levels are aimed at the patient’s bones. When soft tissue absorption is subtracted out, the BMD can be determined from the absorption of each beam by bone. DXA is the most widely used and most thoroughly studied bone density measurement technology.
Commonly known as a bone density scan or bone densitometry, DXA scans are used as a screening and diagnostic test for osteoporosis. The bones that are most commonly fractured in humans with osteoporosis are scanned for screening purposes, although osteoporosis can occur in any bone and is not necessarily uniformly distributed in the skeleton. These include the proximal femur, and the lumbar spine. Under some circumstances, the distal radius and ulna are also scanned, usually in obese patients, or those whose orthopedic impairments make scanning of the spine and hips impossible.
In patients who have already sustained a fracture, the DXA scan is used to diagnose osteoporosis if it is suspected. For example, a 50 year old man falls and fractures his hip. The fall is minor enough to suspect some disease of bone may be present. A DXA scan would be used under these circumstances to determine the presence of osteoporosis.
Maximal Bone Mineral Density occurs at age 30 in both males and females. This BMD is used as the standard to which all DXA results are compared. A DXA scan report shows the measured BMD, the difference between your measured BMD and the age-sex matched average, known as the Z score, and the difference between your measured BMD and the sex matched average 30 year old standard, known as the T score.
A T score of -1.0 to -2.4 is diagnostic of osteopenia, which confers a modest fracture risk. A T score of -2.5 or less confers a greater fracture risk and is indicative of osteoporosis as shown in the reference graph for each area measured.
DXA scans can also be used to measure total body fat content, which is useful for athletes, models and health-conscious people.


South Atlantic Omega Validation. Volume 1. Summary, Analysis, Appendices A-E.
SYSTEMS CONTROL TECHNOLOGY INC PALO ALTO CA
Pagination or Media Count:
A validation study has been performed of the Omega navigation system in the South Atlantic region. For purposes of the study, the validation region is bounded by 20 deg E and 70 deg W longitude, 20 deg S and 60 deg S latitude, and includes an area of about 35 million square miles. The objectives of the study are to characterize the inherent position-fixing accuracy of the Omega system in the South Atlantic, as it will be when the eight and final transmitting station is commissioned in Australia in 1982, and to validate Omega signal coverage and characteristics in the region. The basic data resources available for meeting these objectives include 1 Theoretical at 10.2 kHz boundaries of useful signal coverage 2 A computer-based file of long-term Omega phase-difference data collected by ONSOD at eight fixed monitor sites in the region 3 Short-term signal amplitude and noise measurements take with both fixed and airborne monitors for ONSOD by the Naval Ocean Systems Center NOSC cooperatively with the Federal Aviation Administration Technical Center FAATC 4 Shipboard phase, SNR and fix accuracy data from integrated Omega-satellite IOS receivers and 5 Operational signal quality data from the marine and aviation user communities.

Foreign Service Officers may find the description of the 1930s-era Foreign Service to be of interest. This novel has some twists and turns making it an even better story.

I almosy understand why we couldn't see a further storyline with Alais; she was an actual historical figure, so the author couldn't go rewriting history. With a character as unique and unorthodox as Feynman, anything he chooses to write about will be very entertaining.
