San Francisco astrologer Julia Bonatti’s life is turned upside down when she becomes the target of the city’s newest cult leader, Reverend Roy of the Prophet’s Tabernacle. Driven out of her apartment in the midst of a disastrous Mercury retrograde period, she takes shelter with a client who’s caring for two elderly aunts. One aunt appears stricken with dementia and the other has fallen under the spell of the Reverend Roy. To add to the confusion, a young man claiming to be a long lost nephew arrives. The longer he stays, the more dangerous things become. Is the young man truly a member of the family? Can astrology confirm that? Julia’s not sure, but one thing she does know is that Mercury wasn’t merely the messenger of the gods—he was a trickster and a liar as well.

The first reports of a new virus spreading throughout Wuhan, China began in late December 2019. Since then the virus has continued to spread throughout China and beyond, with cases popping up worldwide. In China alone the number of confirmed cases is over 4000 and there have been more than 100 deaths. To curtail the spreading and outbreak, China has restricted travel for almost 60 million people, in 15 cities across the Hubei province (of which Wuhan is the capital). In addition, China is building two new hospitals (to be completed in the next week) to treat victims of the epidemic.
The virus in Wuhan is a vivid reminder of the ongoing need for medical advances to save lives and reduce suffering across the globe, not only for well-known chronic diseases, debilitating illness and injuries, but also new public health challenges. Around the world, scientists, physicians, health care providers, public health agencies and others are working to halt the spread of the virus. A look at their work serves as a reminder of the vital role that the study of other animals plays in our response to this epidemic (and possible pandemic).
- The SARS pandemic broke in China in 2002, with 8098 reported cases and 774 deaths reported in 17 countries. There was no vaccine for SARS during the outbreak. It took five years of studying horseshoe bats in caves, but scientists were able to trace the source of SARS virus, which is zoonotic—spread between animals and humans.
- MERS, first reported in 2012, is another coronavirus that has caused a total of 2494 cases and 858 deaths, the majority of which are in Saudi Arabia. Zoonotic transmission events have primarily been attributed to an intermediate host, the dromedary camel, although the source, like SARS, is the bat.
- The Wuhan virus (officially referred to as 2019-nCoV) also belongs to the coronavirus family (like SARS and MERS) and that typically results in respiratory illnesses.
- The source of the Wuhan Virus was quickly identified given its similarity to SARS — scientists knew where to look—the food markets. By studying the markets where the virus originated, scientists were able to deduce that it was most likely a zoonotic virus potentially spread from bats to snakes (which hunt bats) to humans (which eat snakes). Wuhan leaders quickly closed and disinfected the first identified market. It is worth noting that some scientists have questioned whether the snake is indeed the intermediate host for the Wuhan virus.
- Before moving to clinical trials in humans, the safety and efficacy of the SARS vaccine was tested in mice and rabbits (e.g., here and here). Why? Because the ethical codes adopted by many nations require that human lives and safety are prioritized. In addition, it is only through controlled, laboratory studies that the effectiveness of a vaccine can be adequately and most rapidly measured.
- During the SARS outbreak, it took just 20 months to go from genetic sequence to the first phase of human trials. The Wuhan virus’s genetic code is already known, and experimental vaccine candidates are being prepared — thanks to modern genetic techniques, and decades of basic research, much of which involved #AnimalResearch. Around 50 years ago, we understood very little about genetic codes and how to design vaccines from just the genetic code itself. But thanks to basic research on viruses, bacteria, nematodes, research animals, and humans the field of genetic sequencing has exploded, giving us powerful tools for improving human and animal health. Knowing the genetic sequence of the Wuhan virus has allowed us to confirm that the virus is from the coronavirus family and related to SARS and MERS.
- Candidate vaccines for the Wuhan virus vaccine will be ready in three months, says Dr. Fauci. Although 3 months may seem unimaginably long to those living in fear right now, the contrast with 20 months it took for the first human trial of a SARS vaccine, makes the point of why previous advances, speed, and response capacity matter.
- Our preparedness to face this emergent threat is because of #AnimalResearch into the source of the virus and in the development of the SARS vaccine. NIAID is working with Moderna Inc., a pharmaceutical company to develop the Wuhan virus vaccine. Additionally, Inovio Pharmaceuticals and Novavax Inc. are also working on candidates and are backed by the non-profit group, the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations who is also funding the University of Queensland in Australia to work on the vaccine.
- The safety and efficacy of all vaccines are tested in animalsbefore making their way to clinical (human) trials. Global society could decide that we should instead test all new vaccines in humans and this is exactly the outcome that groups opposed to animal research promote . In the case of the Wuhan virus, which is associated with a real chance of fatality, would you want the safety and efficacy of a vaccine to be tested on humans, without the controls inherent to animal studies.
So, the next time you hear animal research is irrelevant, remember this one of hundreds of examples of where #AnimalResearchSavesLives. Future threats are not always predictable, but animal research is essential in providing foundations to tackle these unknown threats.

The California Golden Bears got some good news this past weekend, securing the commitment of transferring running back Bradrick Shaw. The former Wisconsin running back received a sixth year of eligibility after tearing his ACL in 2018 and will be immediately eligible to play for the 2020 season.
Shaw played behind Jonathan Taylor for the past three seasons at Wisconsin, for sure learning something or two from the two-time Doak Walker Award winner.
Grateful for this opportunity! #GOBEARS pic.twitter.com/fO4sKm2Rxp— Bradrick Shaw (@bradricks7) May 30, 2020
So, here’s what you should know about Bradrick Shaw:
Hometown: Birmingham, Alabama
High School: Hoover High School
Career highlights at Wisconsin: 22 career games, two starts, 202 carries, 938 yards, 10 touchdowns.
High School Recruit: 3-star prospect, the 16th-ranked player in Alabama and 36th-ranked running back prospect.
His career-long run of 42 yards came this past season against Michigan, totaling three carries in that game for 53 yards. His most extensive action came in 2017 when he carried the ball 96 times for 365 yards and four scores. He had what seemed to be a breakout year in 2016 with an average yards per carry of 5.2 with 18 broken tackles on 88 carries but sat behind Taylor for the next few seasons.
Shaw tore his ACL in 2018 and has battled injuries for what seemed like his entire career in Madison.
He’ll likely pencil in behind Christopher Brown Jr. but has shown the talent and ability of a top-notch player at times through his career.
It remains to be seen if the season will start on time but when the season does play out, this will be an interesting position battle to watch during the lead up to the season. How many carries he receives behind Brown and against Marcel Dancy, DeShawn Collins and the rest of the Bears backfield is a mystery.
Either way, we’re happy to have you, Bradrick! Welcome to Berkeley!

Kane’s Flushing Diner will turn off its oven permanently on May 1 after the more than 50-year-old restaurant was sold to a Chinese real estate developer. An owner told the World Journal on April 25 that she doesn’t want to see the restaurant closed because it is filled with the memories of her family. But she won’t hold grudges against Chinese immigrants because of this. She said, indeed, she thinks the influx of Chinese has helped make Flushing safer and more popular.
Ernie Kane, an immigrant from Greece, purchased the restaurant located at 44-15 College Point Blvd. with his brother in October 1968 and changed its name to “Kane’s Flushing Diner.” They decorated the restaurant in a simple and cozy “granny’s kitchen” style serving American fast food 24/7. When Ernie died in 2008, his son George and twin daughters Toni and Patricia took it over. Toni, who now lives in Florida, came back to the restaurant on April 25 to serve the customers one last time. “Like all new immigrants, we were poor then. My father bought the restaurant when we were small,” recalled Toni. “In the beginning, he only had four employees. He was so busy that he didn’t seem to sleep. My sister and I helped in the restaurant starting when we were 10.”
Toni said, in the past 51 years, her family grew with the restaurant and witnessed the changes in Flushing. She said Flushing was a place marred by burglaries and robberies with many homeless people hanging around. It only got safer and more developed as Asian newcomers opened their own restaurants and shops one after another. She said Flushing was an obscure place until 20 years ago when the development started. “Our whole family is grateful to Chinese and Asian immigrants,” Toni said. “I and my employees all know how to say ‘hello’ and ‘thank you’ in Chinese.”
But the restaurant’s business had been struggling recently because of rising utility costs in New York and higher minimum wages. But the “last straw” came when George was diagnosed was cancer. He decided to sell the restaurant. “My sister and I didn’t know until prospective buyers came to visit,” said Toni. “We were so heartbroken.”
Toni said she understands that the growing population of New York demands more housing. A liquor shop the family owned was already sold to an Asian buyer. “But we didn’t want to sell this restaurant so soon because that will make the employees lose their jobs,” Toni said.
Sergio Morales, a waiter who has been working there for 12 years, said he likes the working environment and his bosses. Now the restaurant is closing and he doesn’t know what he will do next. “This is like my home,” Morales said.
The restaurant was purchased by Chinese developer Kenny Liu for $15 million. Liu has built several residential buildings in Flushing and Rego Park.

Group organizes to promote rail line rehab
An organization comprised of South Dakota farmers and citizens who support investment in the state-owned rail line west of Chamberlain was established at a public meeting at Kennebec February 6th.
The goal of the grassroots organization, Rails to the Future, is to find funding to upgrade the 42-miles of rail line to support 110-car grain shuttle trains from Chamberlain to Presho.
Senate bill 137 would appropriate at least $6 million from the state’s general fund to begin rehabbing the rail line from Chamberlain to Presho and spur economic development in central South Dakota.
Rails to the Future nominated Steve Halverson (222-0270) of Kennebec as chairman, Bill Ferguson (840-9015) of Witten as vice-chairman, and Bryan Jorgenson (840-9005) of Ideal as secretary/treasurer.
The organization is asking for financial support to hire lobbyists to promote SB137 in the 2014 legislature. Donations of any amount would be appreciated but only donations of $1,000 or more will be allowed a vote in the Rails to the Future organization. Donations may be sent to any of the officers or dropped at one of the Dakota Praire Bank locations at Presho, Draper or Fort Pierre.
For more information contact any Rails to the Future officer or see the website at railstothefuture.com.

BEIRUT: The search for a possible survivor trapped under the debris of a building toppled by the devastating Beirut blast resumed on Saturday in the city’s Gemmayzeh district – two days after a sniffer dog first discovered possible signs of life.
A border collie dog working with volunteer Chilean rescuers had identified what was suspected to be signs of a person beneath the destroyed building on Thursday, sparking an intensive search.
Early on Friday, special equipment appeared to confirm that there were signs of two bodies - one potentially of a survivor after breathing was detected, trapped in the debris.
The life signs were minimak - just 18 breaths per minute, while a faint heartbeat could also be detected, the Chilean team said.
However, Francisco Lermanda, head of the Chilean rescue team, said that it was likely whoever was trapped was in a coma.
The discovery was made 29 days after the huge explosion in Beirut’s port killed almost 200 people, injured 6,000, and devastated large areas of the city.
The building where the search was being conducted had once housed a bar on its ground floor.
“These (signs of breathing and pulse) along with the temperature sensor means there is a possibility of life,” rescue worker Eddy Bitar told reporters at the scene.
Rescue workers in bright jackets clambered over the building that had collapsed in the blast.
Bitar said a civil defense unit had been called in to help with extra equipment to conduct the search.
Local media said any search and rescue effort, if it became clear that someone was still alive, was likely to take hours.

— Arab News (@arabnews) September 5, 2020
Residents gathered nearby, holding out hope that someone could be found, while some voiced frustration that not enough had been done earlier to find survivors.
“How many people could have survived if there had been a state and rescue operations ready?” asked 28-year-old Chadem.
Rescue workers, many moving rubble with their bare hands, were preparing to work through Friday night in their efforts to find any survivor. They initially suspended the search operation late on Thursday night, sparking angered reactions from locals.
Lermanda said: “We decided to dig three tunnels to reach him, and today we continued to work in these tunnels. We are only 120 cm away. We cannot yet confirm whether this person is alive or not out of respect for the feelings of the family.”
He added: “We will continue to work and will not stop until we get a result. We will work even if there is a 1 percent chance.” Lebanese troops cordoned off the building on Mar Mikhael Street amid fears the already weakened structure could collapse, while media crews set up facilities in the surrounding buildings for live broadcasts of the rescue operation.

Lebanese troops cordoned off the building on Mar Mikhael Street amid fears the already weakened structure could collapse, while media crews set up facilities in the surrounding buildings for live broadcasts of the rescue operation.
The Chilean volunteers, who arrived in Beirut with their rescue dog Flash four days ago to help search for missing people, have now been hailed as heroes, with one Lebanese activist saying the dog “was smarter than the entire government.”
Paolo Torres, a Chilean-born photojournalist, told Arab News the team belongs to an NGO known as the Topos International Research and Assistance Disaster Relief Foundation, which has extensive experience in mine rescue operations in Chile.
Torres said a member of the Chilean team had told him: “No one brought us here; we came from Chile to help Beirut.”
Oscar-nominated director Nadine Labaki joined angered residents as they demanded the work continued.
“There could be someone alive,” she said. “That cannot wait until tomorrow morning.”
“You have no brains,” another woman was quoted as saying. “If your sister or mother was there, would you leave them?”
As a crowd gathered to await news of a “miracle,” Beirut residents took to social media to criticize their government, saying it had taken a foreign rescue team to find any signs of life so long after the Aug. 4 explosion.
One described the Chilean dog as a “hero” and wrote that it was “smarter than an entire government.”
However, Beirut Gov. Marwan Abboud, speaking during a visit to the rescue site, said: “Lebanon was not prepared for a crisis like this. We do not have the dogs, thermal machines, or the other equipment that the Chilean rescue team has.”
The Lebanese army said last Saturday that seven people, three Lebanese, three Syrians and one Egyptian, are still missing after the explosion.
Across from Mar Mikhail, near Beirut port, a commemoration was held for the 191 victims of the blast in the presence of some of their relatives on Friday evening. Lebanon observed a minute’s silence at 6:08 p.m. on Friday.
Soldiers fired a salute, then laid a white rose for every one of the 191 victims at a memorial. The crowd fell silent at 6:08 p.m., the moment of the explosion that marked the most destructive single blast in Lebanon’s violent history.
The blast displaced 300,000 people and caused direct damage of $15 billion to 50,000 homes, nine major hospitals and 178 schools.
The second phase of the judicial investigation, led by Judge Fadi Sawan, will begin on Monday with four witnesses due to appear. Rola Al-Tabash, a member of the Future Parliamentary bloc, said the possibility that a survivor was still alive in the debris is “a new scandal that parallels the tragedy in Beirut.”
Businessman Bahaa Hariri tweeted that “due to mismanagement by the corrupt authorities, people were left to die under the rubble.”

Opens soil, spaces seed, plants, covers and packs soil all in one operation. Use six interchangeable seed plates (Sweet Corn, Beans, Peas, Radish, Carrots and Beets). Seed plates will also handle 10 to 15 other common vegetable seeds. V-shaped front wheel opens ground or use the adjuster for deeper planting of seeds. No lubrication required, rust resistant to assure years of use.
An ideal row crop planter, the 1001-B is a tool that takes the guesswork out of planting any row crop.
Here’s how it works: install one of the precision seed plates that best fits your seed, then adjust the depth of planting on the ground opener, and then set your 30” long row marker for the desired width, then fill the seed hopper with seeds, then begin pushing in your well tilled soil, that’s it. The results will speak for themselves when days later you look at your garden and see all the row crops come out of the ground at the same time; perfect, making you the envy of all gardeners who don’t have the 1001-B.
Standard Seed plates included with the 1001-B are: 18100 Sweet Corn, 18101 Radish, Leeks, Spinach, 18102 Carrots, Lettuce, Turnips, 18103 Beans, Small Peas, 18104 Jumbo Peas, 18105 Beets, Okra, Swiss Chard.

Betfred Scottish League Cup
Location: Dens Park
Date: 23rd July 2016
Dundee have ground to make up after drawing with East Fife in their first game.
Dumbarton should present them with an opportunity to do just that. The Sons have drawn one and lost one and both to lower league opposition. Their recent 0-2 loss at home to East Fife is indicative of their problems.
Drawing away to Forfar wasn’t a surprise when you consider their away form. Their last win on the road came in December of last year. That’s a full eight months ago but their home form in that time was actually decent.
That makes their recent defeat concerning for The Sons Of The Rock. Another concern will be the fresh memories of their last trip to Dundee. That ended in a 5-0 hammering by The Dark Blues. While a similiar result is unlikely a comprehensive defeat is on the cards.
Dundee disappointed in their first game by letting a 0-1 lead slip to League One East Fife. Matters were made worse by failing to pick up the bonus point in the penalty shoot out and by East Fife going on to beat Dumbarton a few days later. But a win for Dundee here should see them right back in contention. It is an opportunity I expect them to grasp.
The first round of games produced a lot of surprises particularly in the performances from the fancied sides. By the time the second round of games came about the fancied sides, particularly those playing at home, looked in more control.
With a game under their belts Dundee can be expected to have the best of it. If Greig Stewart makes his seasonal debut it may even be extremely comfortable.
Dundee v Dumbarton Betting Preview Best Betting Odds
Dundee are short favourites to win the tie at a best price of 1.3 (3/10) with Marathon Bet. Dumbarton can be backed at 11/1 with McBookie who are also best price for the draw at 6.25 (21/4).
Both teams to score could be worth considering at 2.0 (evens) with bet365 but may be a touch on the short side. Goals backers can get no more than 1.58 (7/12) for +2.5 goals from Marathon Bet.
The best bet may be on the handicap markets. Dundee -1 handicap is available at 1.83 (5/6) with Skybet. That looks as good as anything available and given Dumbarton’s start to the season it could come in quite comfortably.

What is a High Tunnel
High tunnels are unheated, plastic-covered structures that provide an intermediate level of environmental protection and control compared to open field conditions and heated greenhouses. In high tunnels, seeds and transplants are planted directly into the soil rather than in pots or flats, or on benches or tables. Since there is no cement slab or heating system, construction costs are lower with a high tunnel.
In order to determine the effectiveness of a high tunnel in our area, temperatures were monitored at various locations both inside and outside of the high tunnel during the winter of 2003-2004. The chart shows that while outdoor temperatures dropped to -12°F on several occasions, soil temperatures inside the tunnel under the row cover remained at or above 28°F (early February). By early March, soil temperatures were above 40°F, the minimum soil temperature necessary for germination of some “cool season” vegetables. Air temperatures under the row covers remained above 20°F until early January. As a result, we harvested salad greens until that time and gained a very early start to our spring planting.


Rep. Rochelle Galindo Resigns Following Troubling Allegations
DENVER (CBS4) - State Rep. Rochelle Galindo announced her resignation on Sunday following sexual assault allegations made against her. Galindo says the allegations are not true.
"The allegations against me are false. That said, they will make our fight against the pending recall effort untenable. I will not put my constituents through what will surely be a recall campaign based on political smear tactics and false allegations. Instead, I will resign my seat as the elected representative of House District 50, effective immediately," said Rep. Rochelle Galindo in a news release.
The lawmaker, who was elected in November, is a gay, Latina woman. In January, she told CBS4 she embodies the diversity at the Capitol.
Distict 50, in which she represented, is one of the poorest in the state.
"I come from a working class family. My dad works in oil and gas. My mom has worked in the meat industry for over 30 years and my regular job outside of the legislature is being a head custodian at an elementary school. I think its very important that we have regular people in these offices who understand what regular people are going through," said Galindo in January.
House Speaker KC Becker and House Majority Leader Alec Garnett issued a response to Galindo's resignation.
"Today Rep. Galindo submitted a letter of resignation. We agree with Rep. Galindo's decision to step down at this time and allow someone else to serve the people of House District 50."

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Vegetable cultivation in Wayanad will get a big boost as the Agriculture Department is all set to launch ‘Vegetable Development Scheme’ in the district under Wayanad package.
The scheme will be implemented at a cost of `329.25 lakh. The Principal Agriculture Officer, Wayanad, had reported that claims worth
`11,20,180 of Kalpetta and Mananthavady blocks could not be encashed during the last three years since the bills were not honoured by the Treasuries concerned owing to treasury restrictions.
Hence the Director of Agriculture had submitted a proposal for settling seven claims connected with the construction of poly houses, open precision farming, capacity building programme and farmer’s training under vegetable development component of Wayanad package pertaining to Kalpetta and Mananthavady blocks for Rs 11,20,180.
The government had given administrative sanction to the scheme in the last week of August.


Once again in 2024, journalists need to justify treating Trump as a deadly bubonic plague, an impending Hitler. Treating him as one side of an election is dangerous when he is the End of Democracy. Then they claim they only have a bias in favor of Truth. Yes, they’re totally not favoring the Democrats with this foam-flecked Evil Trump coverage.
On April 1, the New York Times podcast The Daily tackled the “Trump Problem,” which they defined as this: Why must we deal with business executives who want us to treat Trump and his voters like they are normal citizens and not a Death Star for Democracy? Host Michael Barbaro asked Times political reporter Jim Rutenberg about the impression Republicans have that the media are wearing a “jersey” for Team Biden in all of their hostility to Trump.
Rutenberg’s reply was simply awful: “No one wants to be wearing a jersey on our business. But maybe what they really have to accept is that we’re just sticking to the true facts, and that may look like we’re wearing a jersey, but we’re not. And that may, at times, look like it’s lining up more with the Democrats, but we’re not. If Trump is lying about a stolen election, that’s not siding against him. That’s siding for the truth, and that’s what we’re doing.”
This podcast airs on more than 300 “public” radio stations, which underlines how NPR is one big liberal sandbox. It wasn’t even the only NPR talk program making this preposterous argument.
Over on 1A [for First Amendment, get it?] from northwest D.C. at WAMU-FM, co-host Todd Zwillich offered a similar awful spin: “I think that you’re seeing increasingly, luckily, journalists who cover politics realize they’re not in the old game anymore, that neutrality doesn’t only not serve them anymore, but doesn’t serve the public anymore. It doesn’t mean being partisan. It doesn’t mean you’re for one side. It means you’re for truth.”
Meanwhile, Joy Reid is comparing Trump and his followers to apocalyptic cults from David Koresh, Jim Jones, and Charles Manson. Is that what they mean as being “for truth”?
Both shows never touched on the Hunter Biden laptop or any other issue where the media suppressed and disparaged true stories. When they couldn’t suppress it, they lied about it, claiming it had “all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation.” Then, in 2022, the New York Times and other leftist outlets admitted the laptop was a real thing. This apparently isn’t supposed to dent their “we’re not for Democrats, we’re for truth” spins.
Right before the election, NPR executive Terence Samuel infamously dismissed the Hunter scandal: “We don’t want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories.” It was a “pure distraction.” It was, he said, a “politically driven event.” As if all of their wild caricatures and speculations about Trump aren’t “politically driven”?
Enjoy the podcast below, or wherever you listen to podcasts.


Residents of Magami in Gusau local government area of Zamfara state slept in fear and confusion after armed bandits were sighted riding on dozens of motorbike heading toward Dansadau forest.
A source told this medium that the suspected armed bandits are members of the notorious bandit Dandela who had been terrorizing people along Magami-Dansadau area.
“They were heading toward a forest that link Zamfara with the neighboring Niger State, and they were carrying deadly weapons” a source added.
“The bandit leader Dandela has been masterminding a series of attacks on several communities along Magami-Dansadau and his team has been terrorizing the people and also rustle many cattle and livestock”.
“His constant attack on the people of Kurar Mota has forced half of the residents to flee their homes and up-to-date the majority of them have not returned.
In a related development, angry citizens plying Dansadau-Magami-Gusau road have on Monday blocked the road to register their concern over frequent attacks on the commuters plying the road.
They called on the government and indeed the security agencies to come to their rescue and provide adequate security personnel to secure the road.


Solving the Google Workspace 100 TB Storage Limit for Research Institutions Using AWS S3
Are you struggling to accept the storage limit policy changes for Google Workspace for Education?
Does the newly imposed 100 TB storage limit have you scrambling to find a new home for your data?
Don't want to deal with the headaches of building your own access and collaboration interface for S3?
In the modern era, research institutions are generating and analyzing larger amounts of data than ever before. This trend is set to continue, as new technologies like AI, machine learning, and big data analytics continue to evolve. As a result, there has been a growing need for research institutions to store and manage vast quantities of research data. However, Google Workspace for Education has recently imposed a limit of 100TB across all end-users, creating a serious problem for research institutions with larger data sets.
Gladinet provides an access and collaboration front end for AWS S3 that provides virtually unlimited storage for these institutions.
Why the Limit of 100TB is a Challenge for Research Institutions
Research institutions generate vast amounts of data that needs to be stored, managed, and accessed by teams of researchers, faculty, and students. However, Google Workspace for Education has recently imposed a limit of 100TB across all end-users. This is a challenge for institutions with larger data sets, as it is simply not enough storage to meet their needs.
The 100TB limit might be sufficient for some institutions, but for those who generate large amounts of data on a regular basis, this limit presents a significant problem. Institutions will have to either find alternative storage solutions, delete data or purchase additional storage, which is not only time-consuming but also expensive. In addition, researchers and students might have to spend time migrating data between platforms, which can be a tedious and cumbersome process. As of this writing, Google limits data transfer to 750 GB per day. So, if Google Workspace holds the only copy of your data, it will take more than 3.5 years to extract the first 100 TB!
Solving the Problem Using Gladinet as a Front End for AWS S3
Gladinet provides an access and collaboration front end for storage services like S3 that provides virtually unlimited storage for research institutions. It offers a secure and scalable platform that enables researchers, faculty, and students to store, access, and collaborate on large amounts of data.

Growing Celery in Containers
Utah celery growing in a sunny spot on my balcony.
Celery is a biennial: taking two years to complete it's growth cycle. But that doesn't matter to us. I guess the benefit is that is shouldn't want to flower in its first year but under extreme conditions, it will try. I've been growing "Utah" celery. It's suppose to be a compact plant and therefor better for container growing I guess. But I think I choose it because it was the cheapest celery seed I could find at the time.
Apparently celery takes a long time to reach maturity. I start mine indoors and transplant out when the weather warms past the possibility of a late spring frost. It's not a large sprawling plant so it doesn't take up much space. And it has a shallow root system so keep that in mind when selecting a container and watering. It's a great candidate for drip irrigation but it will be equally happy in a self-watering container.
Celery requires lots of moisture to grow thick juicy stalks. Don't let it dry out. It also helps to keep the stalks out of the sunlight so they maintain a mild taste. But it also requires a good amount of sunlight to grow. I've read that celery is a nutrient-hungry plant. As it has a shallow root system, all of its nutrients must come from the top layer of the soil which adds to the challenge because constant watering will wash nutrients into the bottom of the container where the plant's roots will have a harder time reaching them.
I start my plants indoors. Germination time is around 2 or 3 weeks. Room temperature is fine. It takes a few weeks past germination for the plants to reach transplant size. Starting them in a window sill is not easy as the tiny plants will want to grow tall and spindly and always lean out towards the sunlight. But I haven't had any real problems with starting celery. No more than I have with any other plant. When planting celery plants, be sure to leave the crown of the plant above the soil surface. The crown is that part of the base of the plant from which the stalks emerge.
The crown of a new celery plant. Don't bury the crown of the plants when transplanting.
After a few weeks in their new container.
The best celery I was able to grow, I grew in a bucket on the floor of my balcony. I only filled the bucket to 2/3 with fertilizer rich potting soil. By growing it in a deep container I was able to keep the stalks shaded. The lack of sunlight exposer will give you a milder tasting celery. I placed the bucket on the floor of my balcony. It didn't get as much sunlight down there and therefor, didn't provide me with thick or tall celery. But I was able to keep the container shaded so I didn't have to worry as much about the soil in the container drying out in the hot sun. I was also able to setup a gravity fed drip irrigation system to keep the celery container soil constantly moist.
Small stalks but ready to eat. They will get thicker over time.
Celery plants should reach maturity in 80 to 100 days. But with a plant that lets you steal stalks as it grows, I'm not sure if that really matters. I think the young stalks taste much better than the older tough stalks. If you harvest stalks early they will taste best but they won't be very big. You can use tough or hollow stalks in a soup stock. And the leaves. Hollow stalks are usually a sign of under-watering.
Celery can be bound while growing. This blanches the inner stalks because it keeps them from receiving sunlight. That's why the inner stalks taste different from the outer stalks. Although the darker outer stalks are darker and perhaps tougher in taste and texture, they contain more nutrients.
Late in the season some leaves will start to yellow. That's a pretty good sign that the plants have exhausted their supply of nutrients from the soil. If you mow the plant down, removing all stalks while leaving the crown intact, it will continue to grow and put up new stalks. In fact you can take the bottom of a bunch of celery purchased at a store and plant it in the ground, and it will root and send up new stalks.
Growing your own celery in a container on a balcony, don't expect really thick juicy stalks like the kind you get a the grocery store. To be honest, I'm not sure there is much point to growing it yourself in a container. It's one of those things you grow for a challenge. I spend months tending to a few plants just to find they don't taste all that great. And I'm not sure there is much variation between celery varieties either. With all the effort required to grow decent celery in a container on the balcony, you might be better off passing on this one. But it's great it you're looking for something different to try.

In the article Harlem Shake Wedding Dance, I explained the Harlem Shake and described how the dance craze is featuring in Weddings right across the World.
Wedding Harlem Shake
The dance accompanies a new tune from an American DJ called Baauer and typically the Harlem Shake will start with one person in a group doing a random move repeatedly. At this point the others in the room are going about their usual business and ignoring the person gyrating in a strange manner but then, as the chorus starts and the bass kicks in, all of the others in the room spontaneously react and start doing their own random dance moves in time to the music.
We’ve chosen a couple of our favourite Wedding Harlem Shake videos:
Couple the unusual moves with equally weird items of clothing and you have the Harlem Shake! Some people will wear a dustbin on their head, some will carry a flag, others will parade around in their underwear and some people dance on tables. The idea is to be momentarily random.
The beauty of the Shake is that there are no set dance moves, there are no routines to learn and anybody can join in. There is no right or wrong way to do the Harlem Shake, it’s purely down to interpretation and having fun.
We’re regularly asked to play the Harlem Shake at weddings and parties and with people filming their antics and uploading to Youtube, this is the latest dance craze to spread around the World.

Porsche 964 trailing arm bushings kit and renovation service
Porsche 964 is a classic Porsche model produced from 1989 to 1994. To keep up with the market in 1989 Porsche made some major upgrades to the 911 model. At that time 911 G-model was phased out and brand new 911 Carrera 4 type 964 was introduced.
Porsche 964 is worshipped by many enthusiasts and collectors all around the world who like to keep their car in top condition. This also includes maintenace of steering and suspension parts. One of the important suspension parts of these cars are the rear trailing arms.
Trailing arms, also known as rear control arms or rear suspension arms, are important component of the 964 rear suspension system. Like any mechanical part, over time they experience wear and require maintenance or replacement.
Most common issues and signs of wear of Porsche 964 trailing arms:
- Bushings Wear
Porsche 964 trailing arms have bushings at pivot points. These bushings usually wear out over time, when you notice increased play in the rear suspension. Poor handling and feeling of instability is present.
- Sway and Handling Issues
When 964 trailing arms are worn, rear end of the car feel unstable. Especially during cornering, a lack of responsiveness in the rear suspension is present.
- Alignment Problems and excessive tyre wear
Worn trailing arms affect the alignment of the rear wheels, cause uneven tire wear and reduced handling performance.
When the bushings or other components of the trailing arms wear out, you may hear clunking noises coming from the rear end of the car, when driving over bumps or rough roads.
- Vibration Increase
Worn 964 trailing arm bushings transmit more vibrations from the road to the vehicle’s chassis, which leads to a rougher and less comfortable ride.
If you experience any of the above mentioned symptoms on your 964 Porsche, it is time to inspect your suspension components. You should regulary check the condition of the trailing arms and its bushings. If you find any irregularities, appropriate repairs or replacement of the trailing arms should be performed.

This season the birch pollen has been particularly bad. Some people with asthma have had to leave the state. The peak was May 18 when pollen counts were 974 grains per cubic meter.
Each spring, it seems, the air of Alaska is filled with the buzz of mosquitoes and the whines of people declaring that this is undoubtedly the worst bug season they've ever experienced. This year they may have a case.
The outlook for blueberries in Southcentral Alaska this year is bleak, scientists say. The reason: Two species of moth have damaged berry patches, as well as native deciduous trees, from the southern Kenai Peninsula to Mat-Su.

As Gov. Ron DeSantis begins to slowly reopen the state, recommendations issued by a task force offer a glimpse into what Florida could look like as it emerges from the coronavirus shutdown.
The final report from DeSantis’ Re-Open Florida Task Force, released on Thursday, includes plans for theme parks, restaurants, nightclubs, hair salons, casinos, vacation rentals and many other businesses that are crucial to keeping Florida’s economy afloat.
On Wednesday, for example, the governor said restaurants and retail stores will be allowed to operate at 25 percent capacity starting Monday. But the report shows the task force suggested allowing food establishments, shops, hair salons and barber shops to operate at 50 percent capacity, guidelines the governor did not go along with in his first phase of reopening.
Touting a “small, deliberate, methodical” approach to reopening the state, DeSantis said his decisions to reopen will be based on data and facts. But he hopes the next step will take place in weeks — not months.
“If we start seeing cases where more and more people are going into the hospital and we think that it might be a surge that they can’t handle, that is something that we are going to look at and that is obviously something that we are going to take into account,” the governor said during a news conference Wednesday.
But DeSantis maintained there is no timetable for when the second phase of reopening will happen.
The task force recommended the next phase — done in consultation with public health experts — should include allowing people to resume non-essential travel and permitting restaurants, gyms, movie theaters, concert halls, bowling alleys, auditoriums and casinos to operate at 75 percent capacity, while keeping large sporting-event venues at 50 percent capacity.
Theme parks — a critical part of Florida’s tourism industry — “may consider re-opening with capacity limits, strict social distancing and proper measures to clean and disinfect,” under the phase-two recommendations from the task force, whose members included executives from Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort.
DeSantis has prevented people from renting vacation properties because of concerns visitors would bring the coronavirus into the state. The task force would still impose restrictions on vacation rentals during the second phase. For example, hosts would only be allowed to rent to Florida residents and would be banned from accepting reservations from international travelers or from visitors who live in cities that are known hotspots for COVID-19, the illness caused by the coronavirus.
Hotels, motels, resorts and time-share projects would not be subject to the same restrictions as vacation rentals.
By the time the third phase comes around, the task force recommended local governments should return to in-person meetings after being allowed to meet in conference calls and video conferences to prevent spread of the virus. Also in the third phase, the task force recommended allowing bars, gyms, restaurants and nightclubs to operate at full capacity, theme parks to return to normal operations with “limited social distancing protocols” and vulnerable people to be allowed to “resume public interactions while practicing social distancing.”
Restaurants should also throw away paper menus after customers touch them and nail salons should not allow magazines or newspapers in service areas in phase three, the task force recommended.
Schools, state colleges and universities shut down their campuses in March and are providing online education for the rest of this academic year. While the task force did not set a plan for schools or universities in the second and third phases of the recovery, it said the education system should develop plans to resume “on-campus learning, full-time” next academic school year.

Management Information Systems, 13E
Laudon & Laudon
Lecture Notes by Barbara J. Ellestad
Chapter 13 Building Information Systems
“What do you mean we have to change the way we make our candy bars? They are the number one selling product we have. Everyone loves them. Why can’t we just keep doing things the way we’ve always done them? It’s worked fine this long.”
It’s not unusual to hear this type of dialog in companies, large and small, all across the world. Change is hard on people and organizations. But it’s one of those necessary evils that keeps companies in the lead or helps destroy them. In this chapter, we’re going to focus on using information systems as a way to successfully help redesign organizations so they can improve their current processes or establish new ones.
13.1 Systems as Planned Organizational Change
It would be nice if we could give you a precise checklist of how to smoothly introduce a new information system, but we can’t. No one can. What we provide in this chapter is information you can use to help plan and analyze organizational changes associated with new systems development.
The triangle that we’ve used before is back…
All three elements will pose their own unique challenges to managers, but you may be surprised to learn that the hardware and software will probably be the easiest of the three to manage. Successfully reorganizing the company relies on more than just bringing in new equipment and new programs. Understanding and incorporating changes in the social and political climate in any organization is one of the most important aspects managers will have to deal with. Systems Development and Organizational Change
Change is disruptive. Change is dangerous. Change is good. Change is necessary. Change is constant.
Figure 13-1: Organizational Change Carries Risks and Rewards
This figure shows the four degrees of organizational change. Automation is the easiest (except for those people losing their jobs), and the most common form of change. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to plan for the change first.
Rationalization of procedures causes the organization to examine its standard operating procedures, change the ones that don’t work well anymore, eliminate those no longer needed, and make the organization more efficient. It’s a good thing, as Martha Stewart would say!
Both of these types of change cause some disruption, but it’s usually manageable and relatively accepted by the people.
Total quality management, making quality control everyone’s responsibility, relies on an excellent information system that supplies workers and management with the data necessary to improve products and drive down costs. The lack of good, useful information may not be apparent until the organization can’t figure out what it’s doing wrong, or doing right. Data from all the types of information systems we discussed can be fed into quality management and make it easier to develop and improve products that blow away the competition.
Six Sigma is another initiative companies use to spot problems and correct them before they are too deeply embedded in the company’s processes. It just stands to reason that the longer a flaw is allowed to fester in the system, the more problems it may cause. And the more problems, the higher the costs. So if you can identify the defects early on and eliminate them, you can achieve more efficient production at lower costs. That’s the premise behind Six Sigma.
Business process redesign, on the other hand, can cause radical disruption. The mere mention of the term nowadays strikes fear in the hearts of workers and managers at all levels. Why? Because many companies use it as a guise for downsizing the organization and laying off workers. Business process reengineering causes planners to completely rethink the flow of work, how the work will be accomplished, and how costs can be reduced by eliminating unnecessary work and workers.
