MHG923 - Stone Rows - Upper Dounreay
No summary available.
Type and Period (1)
- STONE ALIGNMENT (Undated)
Standing Stones (NR) OS 6"map, Caithness, 2nd ed., (1907)
The stones are said to mark the graves of those killed in the 'Sandside Chase' (ND06NW 4: 15th century clan battle).
Name Book 1871.
The thirteen rows of stones in this monument appear to radiate generally to ESE from a group of four stones. These are arranged in an irregular square 4ft wide, and are between 1ft and 1ft 2ins long and the same in height above ground. The rows are about 100ft long and occupy an area some 44ft wide at the inner end and 115ft wide at the outer. The thin flat slabs which form the rows and which remain in situ appear to number 115 and are set on edge across the rows; they protrude about 1ft 6ins from the ground; the stones at the outer ends of the rows are larger. Some two thirds of the distance towards its broader extremity, the monument has been cut through by a road, and possibly a similar cause has destroyed the rows between the small square setting and their present commencement.
The slabs now number about 100 and seem to form the remnants of 13 rows aligned WNW-ESE and originally contained perhaps 20 stones each. A cist-like setting of 4 slabs which lies just above them seems to provide a focus for at least some of the rows. <1>
The site was Scheduled in 1964.
Only 56 stones, mostly set on edge, can be seen protruding through the heather to a max height of 0.6m. They are neither hewn nor marked and do not conform to any definite shape.
Resurveyed at 1:2500. Visited by OS (N K B) 20 11 1964.
(ND 0117 6595) Stone Rows (NR) OS 6"map, (1969)
The stone rows, in a hollow on undulating moorland, have been considerably obscured by peat and heather growth since visit of RCAHMS, and only about six rows (less than half of the stones planned by the RCAHMS) can be traced. The southern rows have been almost entirely buried by the vegetation. The stones appear to radiate from the direction of two cairns which are situated on a ridge to the NW (see ND06NW 14).
Revised at 1:2500. Visited by OS (JB) 7 September 1969.
As surveyed in 1982, 36 upright stones were noted (compared with the 115 noted by Curle) with many other dislodged stones. The general axis of the monument and four or five of the stone alighnments can still be discerned but little else can now be said. Whether the massive change in condition on this site is the result of vandalism or gradual attrition is not clear but little trace of any catastrophic impact on the site is apparent. <2>
The site was re-scheduled by Historic Environment Scotland in 2016 to better reflect its extent and area of importance. <3> <4>
The GIS spatial data was amended in 2017 according to the new Scheduled area. <5>

Hi all! Happy Thursday! Just a quick post to keep up with my blogging of HYCCT projects! Today I have the card I made for HYCCT1421 “Get Inked” – in honor of the tattoos you get when you undergo radiation. They are little specks of tattoos, but it is amazing how much they stick out! (Speaking from experience!)
I used Sno Cone, Blu Raspberry and Pink Lemonade reinkers and splattered my piece of white card stock with a paint brush. I then stamped it with Love and Happiness from the Always & Forever set and positioned a nice big Pink Lemonade ampersand in the middle. Sweet & simple!
Love & Happiness: MFT Blueprints 13, Ampersands, Always & Forever, Sno Cone card stock & reinker, Pink Lemonade card stock & reinker, Blu Raspberry card stock, ink, & reinker
Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Rapper and Joe Biden cheerleader Cardi B was terrified when she recently ventured into the real world and found there are Trump supporters everywhere. The Hollywood rapper expressed her horror at Trump supporter’s “big ass trucks”, declaring “I don’t like this shit!”
Cardi B posted a series of clips to her Instagram Stories on Saturday in which she livestreamed herself driving past huge crowds of Trump fans wearing MAGA hats and waving American flags.
“Look how many f*ckers! I’m scared now we’re gonna get jumped. I really feel like we’re gonna get jumped. Oh my God. Ahhh!” she screamed.
Of course, there was not a Biden supporter in sight.
In another clip, she said: “Trump supporters are everywhere, I’m scared. I don’t like it, with their big ass trucks.”
The rapper said in a third clip: “I don’t like this shit. Look at this. Look at this! Look how they’re walking around, with fake guns out and covering their f*cking face. I don’t like this shit!”
Cardi B stunned by trump supporters moments prior to offset alleged arrest pic.twitter.com/IQEzJDcLtl— soseriuzradio (@soseriuzradio) October 25, 2020
Breitbart report: Cardi B’s Instagram rants are believed to have taken place shortly before or after police officers detained her husband, the rapper known as Offset, after someone inside his vehicle allegedly pointed a gun at Trump supporters who had just participated in a rally in Beverly Hills.
Offset was detained in Los Angeles while on Instagram Live after run-in with Trump supporters. pic.twitter.com/YbRR8WNIXg— Pop Crave (@PopCrave) October 25, 2020
Cardi B reportedly pleaded with the officers to release her husband.
The Beverly Hills Police Department released a statement late Saturday, saying that they had arrested one of the passengers in the vehicle for pointing the weapon. The individual was identified as Marcelo Almanzar, 20, who faces charges of carrying a concealed weapon and carrying a loaded firearm in public. The Beverly Hills PD said Offset wasn’t arrested.

Cardi B has actively campaigned for Joe Biden, conducting in a lengthy interview with the presidential hopeful for Elle magazine in August in which she demanded free college tuition and health insurance. The “WAP” singer recently threw herself a lavish birthday celebration in Las Vegas where she was seen partying without wearing a mask.

September 11, 2001 was a day that changed America forever. Four hijacked commercial airliners crashed into some of the United States ' most prized and recognizable landmarks, including the North and South Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. These attacks shocked our nation and were intended to provoke fear and a sense of vulnerability amongst Americans. Though the emotional impact of the attacks remains significant, one could argue that an equally devastating and long-lasting consequence was the sharp decline that occurred with the economy. The 9/11 terrorist attacks worsened the 2001 Recession, caused a major increase in foreign defense spending, and prompted an unprecedented initiative to
To begin with, Counterterrorism measures such as Biometric data collection would not flag Adam Smith as a homegrown terrorist. Even though Homeland Security’s advanced data collection and evaluation methods from have had outstanding triumphs with many foreign terrorists entering the United States. In the same fashion, administered programs such techniques are probable to yield false positives due to temporary or permanently distorted physical injuries. Furthermore, the homegrown terrorist in the U.S. is typically obedient to the laws with authentic proofs of identification with transgressions or not has not been alerted by Homeland Security as a terrorist.
Imagine for a second that every phone call you make, every text message you send, and every place you go is being constantly monitored by multiple governments. Well this is basically what the United State and United Kingdom's government is doing on a daily basis. The United States National Security Agency has been implementing projects in secret to monitoring people since 2001 but it would still be kept as a secret if Edward Snowden did not reveal this massive secret that was intruding the public’s privacy for years.
The Patriot Act (the full name is the USA Patriot Act, or "Uniting and Strengthening America Act by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001") was signed on October 26 by the former U.S. President George W. Bush in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11. The main purposes are to improve the level of domestic security and to strengthen the powers of law-enforcement agencies in terms of identifying and eliminating terrorists. The US government and its supporters believe that it is one of the most useful tools to investigate and arrest terrorists within and outside the borders of the country. However, critics argue about Acts “overpower” which treats the civilians in non-democratic way and
Although the Patriot Act presents virtually many positives, the overall aspect of its existence is detrimental to the citizens of the United States as a whole. Originally being passed in order to protect the country from acts of terrorism, the specificities of the Patriot Act were never underlined which has since led to a much more generalized definition of what legal actions can be pursued on the basis of the Act. Essentially, the Patriot Act should be abolished because it infringes on constitutional rights of citizens, it lacks effectiveness in its goal, and the manner in which it was passed makes you question whether or not it was fully thought through.
(NPR, 2014, para. 12) This act is a big effect of 9-11. The Homeland Security Act is an act to keep America terrorist free. This act gave a lot of authority. This also took away some freedom of US citizens. The Homeland Security Act is able to get any information to not have any terrorism in America. (AHIMA, 2010, para. 3) With the help of TSA, they made security policies. For example, the group and the act gave commercial pilots guns for when piloting a plane. (NPR, 2014, para. 12) This act made a whole new Department also. This department is called US Department of Homeland Security. (NPR, 2014, para. 13) This department has many responsibilities. One of these responsibilities is grouping the condition of threats in America.
Network Security refers to any activities that take place to protect the network; more likely to protect the usability, reliability, integrity, and safety of the network and data. Targeting the threats and stopping them to enter or spread on the network is the job of effective network security. Most common threats for any computer networks are:
On September 11, 2001 terrorists attacked our country. Immediately after these attacks our US congress had to do something. They passed two major pieces of legislature. The first being authorization for use of military force, which gave George W Bush permission to use military force against terrorists, which he used to wage a full war. The second legislature was Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, or the patriot act, which allowed government to use loopholes in the fourth amendment to keep surveillance on their citizens to stop terrorism. (CITATION)The Patriot Act is like 1984 because the patriot act allows secret searches, without probable cause, and was enacted to stop our enemies.
The Department of homeland security was formed in the wake of the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001. It was created as a part of a determined effort to protect the United States against terrorism. The goal of the DHS is simple, one department of homeland security, one enterprise, a shared vision, with integrated results-based operations. There are a variety of topics handled by the DHS which are academic engagement, border security, critical infrastructure security, disasters, homeland security enterprise, human trafficking, preventing terrorism, privacy, transportation security, economic security, and plenty more.
After the 9/11 attacks on the US, the NSA, or “National Security Agency”, began doing surveillance on the country in order to find terrorists and stop them. The NSA, or National Security Agency, is an American intelligence agency specifically designed for national security. According to their website, “The majority of our nation’s intelligence for counterterrorism, hard targets, and support to military operations comes from the NSA.” However, US citizens are complaining that the NSA’s method for “securing our nation” is “unethical” and “unconstitutional”. They feel like they’re being “violated” and that their “right to privacy” is being overruled. To any uneducated individual, that individual’s right to privacy is as important as his/her right
How do you feel about about adding more border security? Border security is a way of having more protection so people don 't come into a country where they are not from without having thier document or having permission to come into another country. I say there is no need of that because no matter how much security they have people are going to come into the country that they don 't belong in and also because there they are full of ideas to come in the country.
Cybersecurity has become a growing cause for concern in the United States and indeed countries around the world. On February 9, 2016 President Barack Obama announced his Cybersecurity National Action plan (CNAP) to further the nations efforts to protect government agencies, citizens, and businesses from cyber threats domestic and abroad. However, cybersecurity is not a new issue in fact it is as old as the internet itself. With that said, I keep thinking back to that warm September day stained with the image of an enormous fireball engulfing our small TV set. This horrific day changed the course of history forever along with my future career path. At WIT I hit the ground with a running start and a determined mindset not only achieve the best
Cyber threats continue to plague governments and businesses around the world. Cyberwarfare is Internet-based conflict involving politically motivated attacks on information and information systems. Normally there are two purposes of Cyberwarfare, espionage or sabotage. Cyberwarfare attacks can disable official websites and networks, disrupt or disable essential services, steal or alter classified data, and cripple financial systems. Cyber operations can also aide military operations, such as intelligence gathering and information warfare.
Cybercrime is one of the fastest growing type of crime in our society today and have also been a serious problem since it causes a lot of damages and also affect us in different ways. But before I go further let me start by telling you the meaning of cybercrime, Cybercrime is different and more heinous than normal crime that we know. This crime is committed in an electronic medium and here means read is not a requirement and is done in secret Feldman(2013). Cyber war takes place largely in secret, unknown to the general public of crimes include pornography, cyber fraud, defamation, cyber stalking, harassment, IPR theft, data hostage, money laundering, phishing, e-mail bombing, cyber war, illegal monitoring. Secondly let me talk about the effect of cybercrime in our society today. Becoming the victim of cybercrime can have long-lasting effects on your life. One common technique scammers employ is phishing, sending false emails purporting to come from a bank or other financial institution requesting personal information. If you hand over this information, it can allow the criminal to access your bank and credit accounts, as well as open new accounts and destroy your credit rating. According to EWeek (2012) a survey of large companies found an average expenditure of $8.9 million per year on cyber security, with 100 percent of firms surveyed reporting at least one malware incident in the preceding 12 months and 71 percent reporting the hijacking of company computers
"While the Internet-based economy provides many benefits, it also raises new concerns for maintaining the privacy of information. â€œInternet privacy is the privacy and security level of personal data published via the Internet. It is a broad term that refers to a variety of factors, techniques and technologies used to protect sensitive and private data, communications, and preferences.â€


Advanced Navigation acquires ANU Photonic sensor start-up
AI and navigation technology company Advanced Navigation has announced the acquisition of Vai Photonics, a spin-out from the Australian National University for their patented photonic sensors developed for precision navigation.
Advanced Navigation has announced the acquisition of Vai Photonics, a spin-out from the Australian National University which was founded only a year ago by physicists Dr Lyle Roberts, and PhD candidate James Spollard in a deal reportedly worth $40 million. Their future vision includes vertical rocket landings on the Moon and flying cars back on Earth.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) robotics and navigation technology company Advanced Navigation has already made its mark on the space industry. Founded in 2012 by engineers Zavier Orr and Chris Shaw, the company produces AI-based robotics and navigation systems. It was one of the first recipients of a grant under the Federal Government’s Moon to Mars Supply Chain Capability program in 2021, awarded $690,892 to build the world’s first inertial navigation system to be used in future space missions.
Having a former Australian Prime Minister Hon. Malcolm Turnbull serving as a Director on the Board adds an impressive gravitas to both the company and its products both domestically and globally.
While the Vai Photonics technology has been in development over the past 10 years at ANU, their start-up is barely more than a year old. Their patented photonic sensors for precision navigation aims to solve autonomy challenges both in deep space and here on Earth.
With both companies focused on autonomous navigation, Xavier Orr, CEO and co-founder of Advanced Navigation said that the technology Vai Photonics is developing will be of enormous importance to the emerging autonomy revolution.
“The synergies, shared vision and collaborative potential we see between Vai Photonics and Advanced Navigation will enable us to be at the absolute forefront of robotic and autonomy driven technologies,” Mr Orr said.
“Photonic technology will be critical to the overall success, safety, and reliability of these new systems. We look forward to sharing the next generation of autonomous navigation and robotic solutions with the global community.”
James Spollard, CTO and co-founder of Vai Photonics explains the benefits of their photonic sensing technology.
“Precision navigation when GPS is unavailable or unreliable is a major challenge in the development of autonomous systems. Our emerging photonic sensing technology will enable positioning and navigation that is orders of magnitude more stable and precise than existing solutions in these environments.
“By combining laser interferometry and electro-optics with advanced signal processing algorithms and real-time software, we can measure how fast a vehicle is moving in three dimensions. As a result, we can accurately measure how the vehicle is moving through the environment, and from this infer where the vehicle is located with great precision.”
Dr Roberts said it was a ‘huge win’ for the Vai Photonics team of just seven.
“Together with Advanced Navigation, we are able to bring our product to market much faster than originally planned. We now have access to leading research and development facilities along with strong distribution channels. We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome and look forward to navigating the future with Advanced Navigation.”
Professor Brian Schmidt, Vice-Chancellor of the Australian National University (ANU) said it was the second successful start-up from ANU’s Centre for Gravitational Astrophysics.
“Vai Photonics is another great ANU example of how you take fundamental research – the type of thinking that pushes the boundaries of what we know – and turn it into products and technologies that power our lives.
“The work that underpins Vai Photonics’ advanced autonomous navigation systems stems from the search for elusive gravitational waves – ripples in space and time caused by massive cosmic events like black holes colliding.
“The team has built on a decade of research and development across advanced and ultra-precise laser measurements, digital signals and quantum optics to build their innovative navigation technology. We are proud to have backed Vai Photonics through our Centre for Gravitational Astrophysics and business and commercialisation office. It’s really exciting to see the team take another major step in their incredible journey.”


White Sox star Tim Anderson is back from injury for playoff push
— Chicago White Sox (@whitesox) September 14, 2021
While the White Sox basically have the AL Central crown locked up with a 12.5 game lead over the Cleveland Indians, having Anderson back in the fold is huge. He’s been arguably their best hitter across the last two seasons and is batting .302 with 14 bombs in 2021. The former first-rounder is a sparkplug at the top of the lineup for Tony La Russa’s squad and also gives Chicago speed on the basepaths, swiping 17 bags this season.
Anderson has been out with a small hamstring issue and the White Sox will likely be cautious with him as the playoffs quickly approach. Leurys Garcia has done a phenomenal job in place of their superstar but nonetheless, it’s impossible to replace a player like Anderson. The energy and grit he brings to this ballclub on both sides of the ball is unmatched. The 28-year-old is arguably one of the best shortstops in the game, committing just six errors this year for a solid .984 fielding percentage.
Injuries have been hitting Chicago hard lately, with both Lucas Giolito and Lance Lynn previously going on the shelf. Lynn returned on Sunday with a sharp outing of five innings, no runs, and nine strikeouts, while Giolito will take the mound on Tuesday.
If all the pieces to the puzzle can stay healthy, there’s no questioning the White Sox are a legitimate World Series contender.

Skype PhonesMove away from crummy headsets
Skype users rejoice. No longer are you confined to using those cheap headsets you buy at the local Wal-Tar-Co. What you need is something that looks like a real phone. CES 2006 had companies unveiling Skype phones left and right. Here is a sampling of some we saw.
If you havent tried Skype, then you belong with the Lost Boys in Never Never Land. Skype is one of the most popular free voice over IP (VoIP) applications out there. With the ability to place phone calls to anyone else in the world without paying long distance fees, users are scrambling to download and install this application. But wearing a headset connected to your computer makes you look rather goofy sometimes, and the short cable lengths keep you tethered to your desk.
IPEVO has released two new pseudo-phones to work with Skype. The first is the Fly-1 a cordless handset that looks like your everyday phone. This phone is very light and allows you to access all of your contacts with the handy scroll wheel.
If you are more of a hands free conference call kind of guy, then you need to check out IPEVOs other offering Xing. Designed for business users who are looking to save a few dollars in their telecom bill, Xing is another light and portable USB device to work exclusively with Skype. It can sit on your desk and take up valuable real estate or hang on the wall not quite the fly that most would hope.
Finally, IPEVO has updated their Free-1 Skype phone to be compatible with the Mac. Now Apple lovers can be just like their PC cousins and pick up the phone whenever they want to place free internet calls. The Free-1 is available now for $29.99, the other two models will be available Q1 06.
If IPEVO doesnt do it for you, then you might want to consider the Linksys CIT200, which made its debut in October of last year. Even though this is a wireless handset, it will not interfere with your 2.4GHz phone or other wireless devices.
The small LCD screen gives you access to your contact list, and with Skypes premium service, which is quite affordable, you can access your voice mail, receive calls via traditional land line and more. The CIT200 is currently PC and Mac compatible and sells for $130.
Netgear WiFi Skype Phone
Unlike most of the phones on this list, the Netgear WiFi Skype phone doesnt require you to connect to a PC to use. Instead, anywhere there is a wireless access connection, you can use the WiFi phone. This not only includes your home or office wireless network. It also will work in a hotspot at your local café, airport, or any other wireless access point world wide.
The phone is preloaded with Skype, so all you need to do is enter your login and password to get started. As with any Skype call, calls placed to other users are free, but with the SkypOut feature you can place phone calls to any number in the world. The Netgear phone is expected to drop in the first quarter of this year. No word on price.
US Robotics USB Skype Speakerphone
Another speakerphone comes to market this month (January) from US Robotics. This speakerphone works like other desktop hands free devices, but US Robotics has included echo cancellation technology to prevent any feedback from happening.
?Compared to other devices on the market today, the USRobotics speakerphone maintains exceptional voice quality in a small, easy to carry unit, says Rizwan Akbar, USRobotics product manager. ?You normally wouldnt expect a speakerphone with this sound quality to be this portable.
US Robotics is targeting the business traveler and families separated around the world and is making free long distance phone calls affordable for only $49.99.
The Japanese company Elecom showed off their ?Skype to Go USB phone at the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show. The BT-MG2 has 64MB of built in flash memory, 40MB User storage, and comes with the Skype software preloaded. The BT-MG2 even supports Bluetooth. Even though it is connected to your computer, there is nothing to install on the PC. This phone is targeted for an April 2006 US, but no price has been announced.
Speaking of Bluetooth, the Motorola Wireless Internet Calling Kit makes you look futuristic and price conscious at the same time. Harnessing the power of Bluetooth, this phone fits neatly around the ear using the H500 Bluetooth headset, then connects to your computer via the PC850 PC adapter. In your office or in the home, you are free to move around and make those free phone calls whenever you want. This kit is shipping now for $99.99.
Many more phones are now available for Skype users. For a complete list of currently available Skype certified devices, check out the Skype website at www.skype.com.

29. Grim Fandango (PC)
Grim Fandango was a commercial failure, which is a terrible shame, as it's a game that truly deserved to be played by more people. If you've ever played and enjoyed Monkey Island or anything like that, then you will probably love Grim Fandango as well. You play as Manny Calavera, who is an agent for the Department of Death, and over the course of the game you uncover a conspiracy within the department focused on denying people their rightful passage into the afterlife. It isn't without its flaws, as the controls can be a little awkward at times, as you'll be trying to interact with something and the game will take a while to let you, but that doesn't detract from the overall experience.

Clemson, SC: The Clemson men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams will host South Carolina this Friday November 4, at 5 p.m. at McHugh Natatorium on the Clemson campus.
The Gamecock men will enter the meet at 1-3 after falling to SEC frontrunners Auburn, Florida, and Tennessee. South Carolina women’s team is 2-3 with wins over College of Charleston and Gardner Webb.
The Clemson men are 1-1 overall and in the ACC after posting a win against Virginia Tech, then falling to #14 Virginia in the early season. Mark Vahle and Attila Ruszka have led the way, each with wins in the first two dual meets. Vahle has posted wins in the 50 free against Virginia and Virginia Tech. Ruszka won the 200 IM against Virginia Tech, and recorded wins in the 200 breaststroke in both meets.
The Lady Tigers have dropped their first two meets to start 0-2, but narrowly missed an upset win over #14 Virginia by 7 points. The Lady Tigers freshman class has helped shoulder the load by recording three individual victories in the loss to Virginia. Cassy LaRussa won the 200 free, Michelle Parkhurst won the 200 back, and Rachel Regone took home the victory in the 50 free. Senior Kim Routh has swept the 500 free and 1000 free in both meets.
Overall, the Clemson men are 14-34-1 against the rival Gamecocks. The Lady Tigers are 13-16 since they first met in 1975. The last win for each team came in 2004, also the last time Clemson hosted South Carolina.

Surely among the top ten slow foods is tomato sauce. The reward for preserving them in late summer will be the essence of luscious vine-ripened garden tomatoes mid-winter in a soup or marinara sauce, with an onion and sausage frittata or mushroom polenta. I’m a fool for tomatoes and should make myself a tomato cape, something to wear everywhere to signify my devotion.
Since our own backyard tomatoes are behind schedule I thought it would be a good idea to buy seconds from Billy and make a batch of sauce now and then again later this month when ours will finally, I hope, come on like gangbusters. Bob tracked down Billy at the Sunday Market and purchased a big box of seconds, 22# at $2.25 per pound. Since it reduced down to several quarts, this turned out to be some FABULOUS, but pricey sauce. No more than winter tomatoes though, and far superior.
We then rolled up our sleeves and made sauce. Rich and tomatoey, it will be delectable mid-winter. Here’s one way to *make a good sauce.
A Recipe for Tomato Sauce
You’ll need two cooking pots and two bowls, big ones. Amounts are ambiguous and, frankly, are meant to be. Use as many tomatoes as you have, as much garlic as you like or none at all. A lot of tomatoes will reduce dramatically during the cooking process.
Bring a pot of water to a boil.
In the kitchen sink, fill a bowl with ice water.
Peel and slice one or two heads of garlic. In another cooking pot, sauté the garlic in olive oil for half a minute, turn heat off and let sit. You’ll put peeled and quartered tomatoes into this pot a little later so make it a big one. Not necessary to quarter the tomatoes – skip this if you prefer. They’ll soften and fall apart anyway.
Blanch 8 or 10 tomatoes at a time in the pot of simmering water – leave them for one or two minutes until skins begin to loosen.
Remove them with a large slotted spoon/spatula and place directly into the pan of ice water.
Put more tomatoes into pot and while they’re blanching pull the skins off the others.
Large tomatoes sometimes have a hard core – remove that.
Place peeled and quartered tomatoes into the sauce pot with the cooked garlic, turn on the heat and begin to cook. Add other tomatoes as soon as they’re peeled.
Tomatoes will reduce in quantity as they cook so add salt to taste later on.
Smash tomatoes from time to time or use an immersion blender; you could also use a food processor after they’ve cooled, but watch out. Too much blending reduces texture and diminishes bright color. I prefer to use a potato masher or immersion blender which I purchased last year and love.
Stirring occasionally, allow tomatoes to simmer for several hours until they’ve reduced and thickened to your own liking. The bottom line is to make the sauce of a consistency that will serve your own culinary purposes later on.
Salt to taste near end of cooking time.
I let the sauce cool and then pour into quart-size freezer containers. Store in the freezer, until say November if you can wait that long, and have yourself a taste of summer. Or, process in glass jars, which I’ll do with my next batch. Their presence in the pantry is comforting, so red and regal, ready to add culinary distinction to whatever recipe needs a tomato.
Later in the month our tomatoes did finally come on like gangbusters and we preserved lots of them.
*Since this was originally posted, three years ago now, I’ve made most of my tomato sauce via roasting, blending, then freezing or canning. Easier and just as delicious.

The primary goal defined for the present study was to develop a sustainable way to produce biodiesel from microalgae. As a maiden step, potential microalgal strains were isolated based on biomass concentration and lipid yield.Among the six isolated strains, Tetradesmus obliquus KMC24 was considered the potential strain with maximum biomass (2.35 ± 0.02 g L-1) and lipid yield (29.51 ± 0.26%).Further,T. obliquus KMC24 was exposed to nutrient stress (nitrogen and/or phosphorus) for a short period via two- stage cultivation to enhance the lipid content of the biomass without compromising the biomass concentration. Nitrogen starvation (-N) and combined nitrogen and phosphorous starvation (-N-P) changed the morphology of T. obliquus KMC24 from unicell to 2 and 4 celled coenobium with multiple spines at terminal cells. Compared to various nutrient starved conditions, the photosynthetic apparatus was comparatively less affected during phosphorus starvation.The highest lipid content of 39.93 ± 0.64% was obtained in –N2 cultures, which was around 1.35 folds higher than the control. This indicated that nitrogen starvation triggered the production of intracellular lipid.The NL content in –N2 cultures was almost similar to –N4 cultures with significantly higher (P < 0.0001) DCW, suggesting that two days of nitrogen starvation is a better approach for obtaining high biomass and NL content in T. obliquus KMC24.The highest ROS fluorescence intensity (17051.49 ± 93.15 a.u.) and MDA content (3.81 ± 0.02 µM g-1 fresh weight) were observed in -N2 cultures, which indicated that a linear correlation exists between ROS level and MDA content. Moreover, Pearson's correlation analysis revealed a positive linear correlation between ROS and lipid accumulation under all nutrient starved conditions. The activities of CAT, APX, and polyphenols were consistent with lipid content suggesting a strong connection between oxidative stress and lipid accumulation.
152 | P a g e Nitrogen starvation for four days increased the degree of saturation of the total fatty acid pool by almost fourfold. Due to high SFA content in nitrogen starved cultures, biodiesel with higher CN, superior oxidative stability, and improved shelf life were obtained.Thus, it was observed thatT. obliquus KMC24 cells under two days of nitrogen starvation possess a high potential for biodiesel production.
In the next part of the study, waste eggshell derived bioflocculant was successfully applied for harvesting T. obliquus KMC24.Harvesting efficiency of 98.62 ± 0.43% was achieved within 25 minutes under optimal conditions of 120 mg L-1 flocculant dose, pH 4.0, and a temperature of 35 °C. The bioflocculant consisting of a high concentration of cationic calcium ions significantly influenced the zeta potential of the culture suspension.
Zeta potential analysis confirmed charge neutralization as the flocculation mechanism.
FESEM analysis showed no structural deformations when the cells were harvested under optimal conditions. Pseudo-second order kinetic model was a suitable fit for the data obtained from the experiments, which indicated chemisorption as the probable mechanism. The thermodynamic parameters revealed that the sorption process was spontaneous and endothermic in nature.The spent medium was successfully recycled and reused to cultivate T. obliquus KMC24, thereby reducing the water footprint.
In the final phase of the current resarch, a sustainable catalyst using de-oiled microalgal biomass as carbon support was developed. The carbon-based solid acid catalyst was synthesized at an optimum pyrolysis temperature of 600 °C, sulfonation time of 6 h, and H2SO4 concentration of 15 mL. The amorphous DMB catalyst was predominantly composed of carboxylic, phenolic, and sulfonic acid groups. TGA and NH3-TPD analysis confirmed that the DMB catalyst was thermally and chemically stable.
Hydrophobic carbon acted as potential support for sulfonated carbon catalysts.A high FAME yield with improved fatty acid composition was obtained. Moreover,FAME yield
>90% was obtained after four successive reuse cycles. Hydrophobic carbon support suppressed the leaching of −OH and –SO3H groups.Thus, the high catalytic efficiency of the DMB catalyst for the transesterification reaction process signified its potential for sustainable biodiesel production.
Therefore, the present study was able to accumulate a considerable amount of lipid in T. obliquus KMC24 under nitrogen starved conditions making it a promising
153 | P a g e candidate for biodiesel production. A waste-to-wealth approach was successfully implemented by valorizing waste eggshell-derived bioflocculant. This low-cost and energy efficient harvesting technology was developed to attain net sustainability.
Recyclability of the spent medium will certainly help to lower the water footprint of microalgal biodiesel production system. Moreover, the conversion of microalgal lipid to biodiesel and de-oiled microalgal biomass to catalyst will help to maximize the economic value of microalgae within a biorefinery concept, leading to a circular bioeconomy for biodiesel production from microalgae.
6.2 Future scope
The current research tried to address the various challenges faced during the upstream and downstream processes of biodiesel production from microalgae. However, the above study was limited to a lab-scale. Therefore, the research can be extended in the following mentioned areas to augment the work further.
Optimization of nitrogen starvation for enhanced growth and lipid accumulation in T.
obliquus KMC24 at the pilot-scale plant.
Genetic engineering of T. obliquus KMC24 for enhanced biomass and lipid production.
Process optimization and application of waste eggshell-derived bioflocculant for harvesting microalgae at the pilot-scale plant.
Process optimization and application of DMB catalyst for transesterification at the pilot-scale plant.
Leaching of active components is still an issue for the reported DMB catalyst, which needs further attention to reduce or eliminate them. It would help in enhancing the stability of the catalysts further.
Techno-economicevaluation and life cycle analysis of the overall process need to be carried out to determine the sustainability of the system.

AIDS at 30: A Relentless Search for Answers
A brief report on five gay men in Los Angeles with a rare and deadly form of pneumonia, published on June 5, 1981, sparked an ominous flash of recognition in a number of physicians and researchers in New York City.
They, too, were seeing such cases: young, previously healthy patients, nearly all gay men, who were appearing with swollen lymph nodes, pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, a rare skin cancer called Kaposi’s sarcoma, and other infections usually associated with weakened immune systems. Many of them were dying.
The report, published in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, was the first public acknowledgment of the condition that came to be known as AIDS.
Mathilde Krim, Ph.D., then a researcher at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, was among the first to recognize the urgent need for a robust research effort. Faced with inertia from government officials, in 1983 she founded the AIDS Medical Foundation (AMF), which awarded its first research grants the following year.
“From day one, we decided to deal with the fundamental aspects of the AIDS problem,” said Dr. Krim. “We were mostly people coming from the scientific and medical worlds and we had specialized knowledge that we could exploit in the fight against AIDS.”
Harley Hackett, an AMF board member, also realized that that something terrible was unfolding. His friend Joseph Sonnabend, M.D., was treating gay men in New York’s Greenwich Village. “Unless doctors were working with gay male patients, they were not likely to see enough people with these symptoms to know how enormous it was going to be,” said Hackett. “But more and more people were getting sicker and sicker in different ways.”“Research Was Our Only Hope”
In 1985, AMF joined with the Los Angeles-based National AIDS Research Foundation to form the American Foundation for AIDS Research—amfAR. The Foundation would play a crucial role in funding early studies of HIV and later in the development of antiretroviral therapy. “It was a matter of life and death,” said Hackett. “The research was the only hope we had.”
The approval in 1987 of the first anti-HIV drug, AZT, was an important milestone. Still, AZT’s side effects were debilitating and the drug was only partly effective in combating the virus. The real turning point came in 1995 when the first protease inhibitors appeared, paving the way for triple combination therapy—the drug cocktails that revolutionized the treatment of HIV. “We called it the Lazarus syndrome,” said Jeffrey Laurence, M.D., who soon joined amfAR and is now the Foundation’s senior scientific consultant. “It was amazing—patients came back to life.”
Stigma and Fear
Even after scientists had established that HIV/AIDS could not be spread by casual contact, the disease continued to provoke fear and misinformation. The intense stigma attached to HIV, often fueled by homophobia, caused people to be shunned by friends, co-workers, and even family members, and led many to keep their status hidden. “People affected by AIDS were being neglected because of their sexual orientation,” explained Dr. Krim. “Gay men were accused of creating the problem.”
In fact, anyone who came into contact with an HIV-positive person could be shunned. “At Rockefeller University, where I worked, the mailmen stopped bringing my mail to the lab,” said Dr. Laurence. “The secretaries wouldn’t let me put my coat in the office; they wanted me to put it in the hall. They were afraid I was carrying something.”
Early advocacy efforts by amfAR and other AIDS organizations were aimed at ensuring that people living with the virus enjoyed the same rights as their fellow citizens, including the right to treatment and care. Dame Elizabeth Taylor was an early and vocal advocate, and her outspokenness on Capitol Hill and in the media helped bring AIDS out of the shadows.
“She saw this terrible disease, and she was angered by the fact that nobody was doing anything about it,” said amfAR CEO Kevin Robert Frost. “She just stepped right into the breach.” Together with Dr. Krim, Dame Elizabeth lobbied for increased federal funds for research, prevention, education, treatment, and care.
The End of AIDS?
When the first AIDS cases were reported, no one knew what was causing it, how it was being transmitted, or how to prevent and treat it. Thirty years later, people with HIV/AIDS are living longer and healthier lives thanks to antiretroviral therapy, HIV-positive mothers are safely delivering babies who are HIV-negative, and new prevention strategies are helping to reduce the number of new infections.
Yet, as AIDS enters its fourth decade, more than 33 million people are living with the virus and 25 million people have died of AIDS-related illnesses. While access to treatment has greatly increased, less than half of those in need are receiving it. And for every person put on treatment, two to three more become infected with HIV.
“We’ve come a long way on treatment and we’re seeing some advances in prevention,” says amfAR Chairman Kenneth Cole. “But we’re not yet where we need to be. We need to find a cure, and that’s where we’re targeting our investments.”
“We’re closer [to a cure] than people think,” says Frost, “and with the right financial investment, we can get there. The real question in my mind is, are we going to find the money to do it?

Despite the huge impact cardiovascular disease (CVD) has on everyday lives, we still do not understand why it develops and progresses differently depending on the person. Current preventatives and treatments for CVD do not work for everyone because traditional research is based on large population groups, resulting in a “one size fits all” approach. But every heart is unique. Every heart needs personalised treatment.
We need to move beyond the “one size fits all” approach to look at how each person is uniquely affected by CVD and to understand what happens in CVD at the cellular level in each individual. Treatment needs to consider the unique biological needs of each patient, but that is currently not possible.
In an Australian first, HRI is establishing a cutting-edge Fluxomics Centre, led by Dr Sergey Tumanov, to identify and explore the cellular changes that are unique to each person’s CVD.
Fluxomics is an emerging technology that enables a holistic, big-picture view of cells. Current technologies can only provide static “snapshots” of what is happening in a cell at any given moment. Fluxomics combines current approaches to provide “video”, showing how the cell changes over time. This is particularly important for understanding diseases that affect the heart and blood vessels, which constantly change as the heart beats and the body moves.
The Fluxomics Facility Centre has the capacity to screen for changes in molecules that are known to be important for CVD. To take the next leap in our understanding of CVD, we need to analyse the rate of turnover of these molecules (metabolic flux) through the linked chemical reactions occurring within cells (metabolic pathways).
With fluxomics, we could take a patient sample and run it through a multi-layer system to understand what is happening within their cells, to generate a ‘chemical fingerprint’ for that individual. The supporting statistics will allow for data to be extrapolated forwards to predict the likelihood of developing CVD, and what treatments will work best. Through fluxomics, we will be able to design better treatments because we will have deeper knowledge of how and why CVD develops, and how and why medicines do and don’t work.

TikTok has sold part of its shares to Oracle, an American company, to avoid Trump’s ban in the US.
The trade war continues between the US and China. Trump had given numerous American companies until the 15th to stop offering services to other Chinese, such as TSMC. Last August, the TikTok application – which is so successful among teenagers – was going to be banned in the United States due to, according to Trump, a privacy violation and national security issues. It was then that some companies like Microsoft and Oracle were after him, trying to buy shares on American soil and thus be able to be partners of TikTok to control certain aspects that Trump dislikes.
Today a kind of partial acquisition of TikTok by Oracle was made public, making US users able to continue using the application as if nothing had happened and now having some control over what is shared and known in the app. Oracle CEO Larry Ellison is the world’s fifth-largest fortune teller and had previously shown his inclination to favor Trump., as with a fundraising campaign for Trump’s election as president, again. Perhaps this had something to do with Oracle being a benefactor of this operation instead of Microsoft, who has ensured that the terms and conditions of its proposal were more than fair and beneficial for TikTok consumers.

One of the states that started the month struggling with spiking coronavirus infections is also the state most resistant to wearing masks that limit infections.
AZ Central reports that Arizonans are least likely to cover their faces to protect themselves and each other.
Arizona started July by breaking the state’s record with 4,878 new coronavirus cases, which put it over the 84,000 mark. Officials there rolled back reopening plans as the numbers rose.
Citing Twitter data collected by Survival at Home, the southwest media outlet claimed that people in the Grand Canyon State recorded the most geotagged statements opposing facial coverings. Among the more popular hashtagged terms were #burnyourmask and #iwillnotcomply.
Nevada and Florida are also home to a large count of anti-maskers, according to the report. Twitter users on the east coast and in California were among the most likely to side with science.
The issue has been largely politicized in Arizona, where governor Gov. Doug Ducey has been seen without a mask during the outbreak, Tucson.com reports. Ducey’s administration has argued the state’s high overall number of infections is due to the high amount of testing it does, though Arizona’s 25% rate of positive tests is the nation’s highest.
When President Trump held a rally in Phoenix on June 23, many attendees ignored masks and social distancing recommendations.
A Trump supporter there told AZ Central she wouldn’t wear a mask because “I don’t live in a communist country.”
During a previous visit in May, Trump toured a mask-making factory bare-faced while Guns n’ Roses “Live and Let Die” blared through loudspeakers.
The president was finally photographed wearing a mask during a visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center over the weekend.

Child Poverty in the UK - “It Shouldn’t Happen Here”
The charity Save the Children, best known for helping some of the world's poorest families, has launched an appeal to help UK children, focusing the scale and impact of poverty amongst Britain's poorest communities...
The charity says the UK's poorest children are bearing the brunt of the recession, with some missing out on regular hot meals or new shoes.
The new campaign ("It Shouldn't Happen Here") urges the UK government to focus on benefits for low-paid families and ask employers to pay a living wage.
Researchers for Save the Children surveyed more than 1,500 children aged eight to 16 and more than 5,000 parents, focusing on the lowest income groups.
The campaign also draws on data from the Institute of Fiscal Studies (IFS) which estimates that there are 3.5 million children living in poverty in the UK and predict a steep rise in the numbers in coming years.
The promo film that launched the campaign is shown below.

Rangers star Glen Kamara has appeared to put the coolers on talk of imminently signing a contract, despite claims that the player was close to agreeing a new deal.
The Athletic had previously claimed that the Finnish international midfielder, 25, was closing in on a new deal at Ibrox after a summer of speculation regarding his future.
With only two years left on his current deal, this move would be designed to strengthen Rangers’ position and reward Glen for his influential performances at Ibrox.
As part of this, that report hinted that Rangers would facilitate any “sensible bid” for Kamara’s services and had given the player assurances as such.
Rangers manager Steven Gerrard would then reveal that the club had made a “strong” contract offer to Kamara with the decision firmly in the player’s hands.
“There is a real, strong, good offer on the table for Glen, so the speed in which this happens is totally on Glen. The ball is firmly in his court,” said Gerrard [Rangers].
“The offer is really good from the club – his advisors are happy with the offer so now it is totally down to Glen.
“I’m sure the question should go in Glen’s direction because we are ready, waiting and hoping that it’s done as soon as possible.
“He’s extremely important to keep at the football club.
“I think his progress since we took him in from Dundee has been clear for everyone to see. He’s gone on to become a real established international player.
“We know he can handle any football game here. I love the kid, I love the player and I’ve made it abundantly clear how much I want him to stay from a personal point of view.”
As the transfer window closed, Athletic Rangers correspondent Jordan Campbell then claimed that Kamara was “expected” to sign the deal.
However, expectant Rangers fans will be interested to hear the player’s take on the situation as he enjoys the international break with Finland.
Kamara revealed that there was interest from elsewhere but has warned “let’s see what happens” when it comes to a new deal.
“Discussions have taken place and are still ongoing,” said Kamara [MTV Uutiset].
“I can’t say much more about it. Let’s see what happens.
“I know there has been interest from different leagues but my focus has always been on Rangers.
“Mostly I thought that if something happens, then it will happen. But it didn’t happen.”
Rangers fans will be hoping Glen Kamara signs a new deal at the club given the player’s influence and ability, Glen now a key feature of Steven Gerrard’s side.
Read more about how the ominous comments of another Ibrox star suggest that there’s every chance a reported £3m exit clause could be activated in the coming months.

BLOG: We Must Pave The Way For Our Children’s Future
By: Megan Healey, Deputy Press Secretary
February 10, 2016
Pennsylvania is at a critical crossroads. We can fund our schools and fix our deficit or we will be faced with an additional $1 billion in cuts to our schools.
FAILURE TO ACT
It is time for the legislature to recognize the fiscal problem facing Pennsylvania and work with Governor Wolf to honestly eliminate the deficit. A failure to acknowledge our fiscal crisis will result in an additional $1 billion cut to education:
Here are just a few of the potential consequences:
In all, more than 23,000 education professionals, including guidance counselors, could be forced out of Pennsylvania schools.
Already crowded class sizes will balloon by 30 percent to account for all those teacher layoffs. Worse, classroom swelling will be more severe in the schools that can least afford it.
Technical education programs, special education programs, and Head Start programs will all be cut.
Tens of thousands of Pennsylvania children will lose access to pre-kindergarten, depriving them of early childhood education that we know is key to their future success.
A RESPONSIBLE PATH FORWARD
We can choose to avoid all of this pain, and makes smart investments in programs that combat some of Pennsylvania’s biggest social crises. Governor Wolf has presented a responsible path forward that will eliminate our deficit and fund our schools.
Significant Investments in Education
- A $200 million (3.3 percent) increase in the Basic Education Subsidy. This increase, above the assumed $377 million increase in 2015-16, will be distributed using the Fair Funding Formula created and unanimously adopted by the bipartisan Basic Education Funding Commission in June 2015.
- A $50 million (4.6 percent) increase in the Special Education Subsidy. This increase, in addition to the assumed $50 million increase in 2015-16, will continue Pennsylvania’s transition to the funding formula enacted in 2015.
- A $60 million (30.5 percent) increase in high-quality early childhood education. This builds upon the $60 million investment in 2015-16 to enroll about 14,000 additional children in Pennsylvania Pre-K Counts and the Head Start Supplemental Assistance Program. Currently, only 30 percent of Pennsylvania children in families earning up to three times the federal poverty level are enrolled in high quality pre-k programs.
Building a Bridge from High School to College and Careers
Over the next decade, Pennsylvania will seek to make a college degree or high-value industry-recognized certification available to at least 650,000 additional commonwealth residents.
This budget invests in programs that continue to modernize Career and Technical Education:
- Career and Technical Education: $15 million in additional support for the establishment and expansion of high-quality CTE programs to prepare students for success in today’s economy.
- Career and Technical Education Equipment Grants: $5 million for CTE equipment grants to support updating or purchasing new equipment used in the training of students.
- Career Counselors: $8 million to help school districts offer college and career counseling in middle and high schools to develop pathways to higher education and high-skill careers.
Reinvesting in Pennsylvania’s Institutions of Higher Learning
Finally, the governor’s budget makes investments in our colleges and universities, to ensure post-secondary education is both high-quality and affordable:
- Community Colleges: $22.1 million increase for Pennsylvania’s 14 community colleges to achieve the degree, certificate or certification goals.
- PASSHE: $42.3 million increase for the 14 universities that are part of the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education.
- State-Related Universities: $59.7 million increase for Penn State University, the University of Pittsburgh, Temple University and Lincoln University. These resources will encourage innovation by helping these institutions translate research into job creation.
Governor Wolf still believes in a bright future for Pennsylvania, but he can’t go at it alone. His 2016-17 Budget is a renewed promise to the voters who elected him to take the responsible path forward — eliminating the deficit and making our schools whole once again.

Tara Lynn Baisden is the bestselling author of 4 quilting books:
Simply Charming: Small Scrap Quilts of Yesteryear
Small Treasures From Scraps: More Simply Charming Quilts
Cozy Quilts: A Charming Blend of Wool Applique and Cotton Patchwork
Wool Rug Hooking
Thousands of her books were published by the former Kansas City Star brand in the USA and distributed worldwide. These books are now available in PDF format
Tara also had 14 designs published in two quilting industry magazines throughout her career. American Patchwork & Quilting and also Primitive Quilts & Projects magazine.
In her former life, she could be found hitting the quilting industry scene, marketing her original designs on her website (now closed), Etsy, through several distributors worldwide and her favorite – International Quilt Market and several other smaller quilting venues.
After a few life-changing events, her focus and interests switched to writing, a childhood passion that has now grown into her focus.
Baisden is captivated by her surroundings. The beautiful and scenic mountains and wildlife that surround her mountaintop home in West Virginia enchant her daily. She draws inspiration not only from the small close-knit and family-friendly town she now calls home but also from the many tucked away and sometimes little-known spots within and around her home state.
Tara is an animal lover. She has four fur babies; Dahlia and Daisy, both loveable dogs who think they run the house, and Hazel and Hank, brother and sister cats with who she fell in love with instantly.
She has many other species of animals around her daily, from the common rabbits, squirrels, birds, and deer that frequent the forest that wraps around her mountain home, to the raccoon that comes to visit her often, waiting at her back door for handouts — she affectionately named him “Mooch.” She’s seen enough snakes to last her a lifetime. Was fascinated by a mountain lion that walked in front of her truck while heading home one day. The wolves that howl during the night hour are fun to listen to, while tucked safely behind her closed doors. The owls and whipper wills that sing their song while she’s outside are enchanting. She’s still waiting to see the bear that frequents along the ridge where she lives, yet “she keeps eluding me!”
Hiking through the mountains, wading in the creeks, camping in the woods, strolling along sidewalks in little towns that remind her of Mayberry, and visiting long-forgotten towns that appear to be modern-day Waltons Mountain settings are just a few of her favorite things to do.
She is often asked, “How can you live way up in the hills like you do?” Her answer – “it’s Heaven on earth and I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Tara lives in a log cabin, on the very top of an extremely tall mountain. She is a 25-minute drive from the closest blacktop road. The drive to her home is all uphill, curving and winding through mountains.
Her first novel is set in the small historic town of Lewisburg, West Virginia. Lewisburg holds the title of “Coolest Small Town” which is a very deserving honor. Baisden’s novel is tentatively titled “Bluebird Falls” and will be the first in the series, which falls into the light romantic / women’s fiction genre.
and Writing…of course!!!
Quilting…..for pleasures nowadays!
baisden’s past adventures…..
Mommy – First and Most Importantly
Tara has two grown children. One enjoys his life and job, traveling around and doing what he does best – fixing big equipment. The Second is also enjoying her life, she is a senior at Fairmont State University in Fairmont, WV, majoring in education.
Baisden designed over 1,200 projects she either published and marketed herself or the designs were published in magazines and also her books. She designed everything from bed-size quilts to small quilts for decoration. Wool rugs, purses, dolls, stitcheries, and wool penny rugs were also among her designs.
A little-known fact of Baisdens – she used to be a hair “designer.” She in fact graduated from cosmetology school a full month before graduating high school! Her favorite thing to do as a hairdresser is, “hands down, I loved to color and style hair!”
The Working Teenage Years
During those glorious teenage years, Baisden was not afraid of work. She worked in several different places simultaneously, from picking produce on the small farms in her childhood town, DeMotte, Indiana, she moved into working alongside her mother at a nursing home. She also waitressed at the local small-town cafe.

NFL: Dolphins sign Lawrence Timmons, Cape Coral's Nate Allen
MIAMI — Linebacker Lawrence Timmons signed a $12 million, two-year contract Friday with the Miami Dolphins, one of several moves designed to shore up a defense that allowed a franchise-record 6,122 yards last year.
The Dolphins also signed safety Nate Allen, a Cape Coral High School graduate, and acquired defensive end William Hayes in a trade with the Rams
Miami tried to plug a hole on offense, too, by signing guard Ted Larsen to a three-year deal. Larsen has made 65 career starts, including eight last year with the Chicago Bears, and he's expected to contend for a starting job.
Timmons, who agreed to the deal after visiting South Florida on Friday, spent the past 10 seasons with the Steelers and has started every game since 2011. He had 78 tackles and 2½ sacks last year, and is expected to play middle linebacker.
Allen has 76 career starts, including four last year with the Raiders. He'll compete for a starting job after Miami waived safety Isa Abdul-Quddus, who failed his physical following a neck injury that ended his 2016 season and threatens his career.
Miami re-signed long snapper John Denney, who has played in a team record 192 consecutive regular season games. The Dolphins also announced they re-signed defensive end Andre Branch, who agreed to terms earlier this week.
The Hayes trade also involved draft picks, with Miami getting a seventh-round choice and the Rams getting a sixth-round selection.
Hayes spent the past five seasons as a key rotation member of the Rams' powerful defensive line. He started 14 games last year, getting 43 tackles and five sacks.

Renaissance Asset Managers has recently seen a surge of investor inflows into its Sub-Saharan Africa fund, which is now the largest Sub-Saharan UCITS fund on the market. Plamen Monovski, chief investment officer at the firm, talks about why the region is so attractive.
Investment Europe: Plamen, what’s caused this rapid increase in assets?
Plamen Monovski: This year, investors have finally started to realise the merits of investing in frontier Africa. The reason is that GDP growth has been nothing short of spectacular. And, in a sense, it’s been isolated from a lot of the trouble spots of the world, certainly from the European crisis. And the GDP growth has not only surprised with its robustness, by it has also boosted companies’ profitability and cash flows. So we’re seeing some of the highest earnings growth anywhere on the planet at this stage. And, at the same time, those companies that generate cash flow have started paying dividends, so we’re seeing some of the most generous dividend payers, again in Sub-Saharan Africa. Not the place you would expect. We’re also seeing a surge in local liquidity as the oil price has gone up, and that has created substantial inflows into local accounts, which have been under-invested. And, finally, the markets fell quite sharply in 1999 and they have just started their recovery. So in terms of actual performance, there is a very long way to go and I think investors are starting to see that.
IE: Who are the investors that are showing particular interest in this fund?
PM: We’ve got a very broad set of investors across the continent, especially from Germany, but, increasingly, from the UK and also from Scandinavia. Our investor base has always been global and we think this will continue. Over time, we expect to also be attracting some of the large institutional and private local investors who are getting increasingly confident to put money in their own markets.

Youre assuming that she was left out of it. But the thing is that "it" is a group of artists that have worked together in the past, and have decided that because of the things they all bring to the table, they should just work together, and look within their collective group to compose music... Lauryn was never a part of "it". She's worked with D'Angelo, sure... but she just had him sing on a track, by that measure then anyone who's ever collabo'ed with the artists in "it" would be included (i.e. Method Man, Beanie Sigel, Ceelo, Outkast, Beatnuts, and anyone else they've worked with). But in this case its the fact that they've worked together continuously. I mean... Maybe its all the fact that Lauryn doesnt WANNA be involved.... maybe they had asked her about it and received no response... maybe the difficulties in trying to work with her in the past made it unattractive to try to bring her into the group... there are a lot of possible reasons for them.
I guess we'll never know though.........

Lombard Risk Management plc has rolled out a Dodd-Frank Act Engine solution enabling firms to meet the requirements for reporting OTC swaps data throughout the lifecycle of the trade, according to the company’s release.
The solution addresses Title VII, “Wall Street transparency and accountability— regulation of the OTC swaps markets” under Dodd Frank requiring real-time public dissemination for price and volume transparency and confidential confidential regulatory use (to help conduct market oversight, enforce position limits and track systemic risk). The deadline for the first set of financial products covering credit defaul swaps/interest-rate swaps is July 2012, with other asset classes (e.g. equities, commodities and FX) to follow later in the year
Lombard Risk said it has been working closely with several large global banks in the United States and Europe to analyze the impact of this regulation on their businesses. As a result, Lombard Risk has developed a Dodd-Frank Act Engine solution to enable firms to meet the regulatory requirements relating to Title VII.
In the release, Nick Davies Chief Technology, commented, “The regulators are demanding all information reported “as soon as technologically practicable” and there is significant focus on real-time which may cause real issues for firms with silos of data. The Lombard Risk Dodd-Frank Act Engine is a rules-based, workflow technology and software solution that meets both real-time and event-driven reporting to the regulators, automatically collating and mapping reportable data from different source systems, keeping firms that use the solution compliant with SEC and CFTC rules and giving added benefits for internal management information and reporting.”
U.S. clients turned to the firm as its solution provider for this new regulatory issue as a result of “our quality work and valued experience in the regulatory and collateral management areas,” said John Wisbey, CEO of Lombard Risk in the release. Lombard Risk designed the technology solution with European regulations in mind as well. “We do not however see this as a U.S. problem only — European regulators are on the same track, with EMIR and MiFID2, expected to be operational towards the end of 2013, and our technology is designed with that in mind. The Dodd-Frank Act regulations affect European and other foreign banks in the U.S. that are active in derivatives and, as the top supplier of regulatory reporting solutions to foreign banks in the U.S., we believe we are best placed to serve our clients’ needs,” stated Wisbey.

IBAK PHOBOS 1
IBAK PHOBOS flushing nozzles provide maximum forward drive and range with push rod systems. At the same time, the IBAK flushing nozzles produce a certain cleaning effect so that ground sewers and laterals can be inspected and also cleaned, depending on the degree of soiling, in a single operation.
An ORION L, a POLARIS or a NANO L and an IBAK flushing nozzle with a push rod system or the LISY satellite inspection system are tried and tested combinations. The flushing nozzles are supplied with water from a high pressure jetter. The PHOBOS models are designed for efficiency and energy saving. The interior design of the nozzle ensures that the water jet is directed such that no vortices are formed as these would cause the energy to dissipate. In addition to maximum forward drive power for long ranges, both the PHOBOS 2.1 and the PHOBOS 3D are equipped with a lens-cleaning function. If the camera lens is dirty, it does not have to be withdrawn and cleaned outside the pipe in order to enable a good view again. This saves the user a considerable amount of time. Older PHOBOS 3D models can be retrofitted in order to also provide a lens-cleaning function.
The PHOBOS 2.1 is a flushing nozzle that can be operated with the Perfect or Magic Push Rod of the IBAK push rod systems MicroLite and MiniLite and the LISY satellite system. The lens-cleaning function is integrated.
The PHOBOS 3D offers the same same range of functions as the PHOBOS 2.1. In addition, it serves as a camera guide device to keep the inspection camera parallel to the pipe wall during 3D-GeoSense pipe run measurements. In mid-2019, the PHOBOS 3D was reworked; the lens cleaning function is now serially integrated into the current models and the strain relief of the cables was improved by a modification to the design. The PHOBOS 3D is available with 72mm ø for the ORION and the POLARIS and with 60 mm ø for the NANO.
The PHOBOS 4, like the PHOBOS 2.1, is designed to provide a maximum range. Two forward-facing water jets can be switched on additionally. These loosen dirt deposits in front of the camera to allow it to pass. As the camera moves over it, the loosened material is flushed out of the pipe. If the forward water jet is switched on additionally, this also makes it easier to withdraw the nozzle during flushing operations.
The main application of the PHOBOS 1 is cleaning pipes. It achieves optimum cleaning results thanks to the layout of its 5 nozzle inserts and a shallow jetting angle of 30°.

Gig #3 this year saw me witnessing the brilliant Pink at the M.E.N Arena last night.
Fantastic voice - if I could sing, I'd love to have a voice like hers.
Sexy, sassy, cheeky, ballsy, raunchy and fun - Pink was in great shape, looking toned and athletic as she strutted her stuff, belting out her popular hits (U + UR Hand and So What probably among my faves) as well as the emotional ballad Family Portrait and amazingly, sang a few of her tracks whilst swinging upside down, suspended from a trapeze! Wow, fantastic!
She did some excellent covers of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody and Gnarls Barkley's Crazy. It was an excellent show lasting over two hours.
The arena was packed (though not quite rammed as with the Killers), the audience was 99% female of all ages and it also seemed that many of the female half of Manchester's gay village were in attendance also - I noticed as it's usually the male half I see at gigs.
It was a great night out with the glamorous C (and her daughter who I think I'll now call Saffy...) - before the gig, we went for our usual Chinese buffet and were able to catch up a bit on our news - as Saffy was there (and most definitely earwigging!), there was much we couldn't discuss so we'll have to make sure we can catch up at lunchtime next week!
