Monday, Oct 3, 2022
From 10:00 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. Central Time
Learn how to grow herbs to spice up your healthy dishes – and complement your patio landscaping, too.
Join AARP Texas and attendees from across the U.S. for a FREE virtual event on Monday, October 3, 2022, at 11:00 p.m. ET | 10:00 a.m. CT | 9:00 a.m. MT | 8:00 a.m. PT - AARP Membership not required.
Growing seasonal herbs for health and the holiday table is the focus behind this gardening class. Cultivating a culinary herb garden is easy when you know herbs' climate and water needs. Basil and mint like lots of water and make great companion plants when they’re grown in the same container. Sage and thyme like their roots to be high and dry. Harvesting herbs for culinary use and teas helps to both preserve foods and support the immune system through herbs’ anti-bacterial properties. They make lovely patio and garden companion plants, too!
This event is FREE, but registration is REQUIRED. Please do not opt out of event-related emails, as you will be emailed a link to join the class via Zoom prior to the event.
For more information, contact AARP Texas at email@example.com.

KRAFT Foods has secured 75.41 per cent acceptances from Cadbury Plc shareholders in its takeover of the British confectioner and will now move to delist Cadbury form the London Stock Exchange.
Kraft said in a statement that assuming it gets 90 per cent acceptances from Cadbury shareholders it intends to move toward the compulsorily purchase of any outstanding shares of Cadbury.
It added that its final offer remains open until further notice and urged all Cadbury shareholders to accept its takeover offer.
Kraft announced on 2 February that it had acceptances of almost 72 per cent of Cadbury’s stock to seal its £11.7bn ($18.4 billion) takeover of Cadbury and create the world's biggest confectionery group after a near five-month takeover battle.
Chairman Roger Carr, chief executive Todd Stitzer and chief financial officer Andrew Bonfield are all to step down.

So, what books are people reading right now? What are they about? What do you think of them? Would you recommend them?
I tend to read two or three books at a time. Currently, I'm making my way through the following:
I only just started Ishmael, but The Omnivore's Dilemma is very good.
I'm rereading T.A. Barron's The Lost Years of Merlin series, and after that I'm moving on to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
1984 by George Orwell. I like it so far.
finished Blood and couldn't resist starting Temple of the Winds
Felidae by Akif Pirinicci
It's a murder mystery novel except with cats. It's pretty disturbing, a good amount of sex and gore. It's oddly hard to put down thought. I don't really even understand why I enjoy it.
I'm reading Inheritance : The Vault of Souls by Christopher Paolini. I'm kind of indifferent to it so far. It doesn't seem to be as enduring or interesting as the first two books of the series. Lots of summary, tons of it. I'm only 25% through, so hopefully it'll pick up in pace.
haven't read any of inheritance yet, but i've found most fantasy series guilty of this over recap. sounds like it should be wrapped up though.
Just finished " the perks of being a wallflower"(: It was AMAZING!!!
About to start "The Pirate's Son" by Geraldine McCaughrean
"The Fortress" by Mesa Selimovic. He's a local author and the book is awesome so far. When I finish it, the next one will be "The Dervish and the Death".
I am currently reading The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, I'm about half way through and I'm really into it! Has anyone else read it!! I am still a little confused on how how his soul and the painting are linked - though it may still get into that!
I just got a Kobo Vox E-Reader from my parents for Christmas and this is the first book I'm reading on it :) does anyone else have one?!? What do you think of them?!? :)
I've just finished Amy Tan's The Joy Luck Club, and now I'm starting Tina Fey's Bossypants. I vowed to read 50 books this year, and Bossypants will be number 49, so close!
you might still pull it off.

As Shantipriya in her debut movie Om Shanti Om, then as Veronica in Cocktail and recently as Rani Padmavati in Padmaavat, Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone has given many memorable performances throughout her career. The diva, who is currently in New York, left us floored with her fairytale avatar when she made a stylish appearance at this year's MET Gala.
The 33-year-old actress was seen donning Zac Posen's strapless custom gown with pink lurex jacquard, embellished with three-dimensional printed pieces meant to resemble embroidery for Met Gala.
Deepika opted for a retro hairdo and teamed it up with an embellished headband. She accessorised her outfit with a pair of pink earrings and a bracelet of the same colour. The stunner rounded off her look with an oxblood lipstick and pink smokey eyes. Check out the photos and videos below.
The theme of the MET's 2019 Costume Exhibition was “Camp: Notes on Fashion”. The theme comes with its exaggerated plethora of costumes that puts on an exhibition by the global stars who attend the gala. The exhibit is inspired by Susan Sontag's 1964 essay that defines camp as "love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration."
Interestingly, Deepika is attending the MET Gala for the third time. She first appeared at the MET Ball in 2017 during the release of her first Hollywood movie, XXX: Return of Xander Cage. Dressed in an ivory slip-dress by Tommy Hilfiger along with a flower crown, the diva looked mesmerising.
Last year, the actress looked ethereal in an Atelier couture by designer Prabal Gurung. Making a statement with her draped number, the actor accessorised her look with siren red heels, dainty diamond jewellery and bright red pout.
On the work front, Deepika is currently working on her first collaboration with filmmaker Meghna Gulzar. The duo has teamed up for biographical drama, Chhapaak which is based on the life of acid attack survivor, Laxmi Agarwal. The movie also stars Vikrant Massey in a key role. Chhapaak will also mark the actress' debut as a producer.
Stay tuned to this space for more updates!

Selma Sun's Faith Callens reports on the new Chick fit A truck coming to Selma on Wednesdays.
Citizens of Selma were lined up in the city’s welcome center parking lot to get “first glance” at the newest attraction in town, the McCalla Chick-fil-a food truck.
The food truck operated for the first time on Wednesday, Sept.29 from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
About 30 people stood in line within the first hour, waiting on their food.
Selma’s Planning and Development Director Danielle Wooten said the city is super excited to have a franchise such as Chick-fil-a to operate within the city.
“For a few weeks now, we’ve been working with the owner of McCalla food truck to bring them to Selma to serve the Selma-Dallas County area and surrounding areas”, said Wooten.
McCalla Chick-fil-A owner Kerry Jones said the City of Selma reached out to his Chick-fil-A because residents within the city had little to no food options.
“They really wanted a Chick-fil-a building but that’s not up to us, so we got a corporate food truck about earlier this year, and we decided to partner with them by bringing the food truck once a week on Wednesdays from 11 to 7 just to bring a little excitement to Selma”, Jones said.
Selma resident Lauren Smith felt the food truck was an awesome idea and mentioned how big a difference it would make having a local Chick-fil-A right at home.
“It’s awesome. I mean, I love Chick-fil-A and now it comes to Selma once a week, we don’t have to drive all the way to Montgomery to get it. It’s a little bit more than buying it at the restaurant but at the same time, it’s coming to me. I’m not having to drive an hour there and an hour back so I’m saving on my gas”, Smith said.
Along with Smith, resident Temeaia Sykes said she is excited for the food truck to be in Selma, and she feels having the food truck is an asset to the city.
“This is something that has been needed and me personally, working with city government for over 8 ½ years, Chick-fil-a is a restaurant that we were trying to get here and I think that the food truck coming today, all of the citizens will be very excited.”
The food truck plans to operate four times within the month of October.
The dates of operation are October 6, 13, 20, and 27.

Wade is currently trying to make his way in the USA having joined the NFL’s International Player Pathway earlier this year.
He impressed during pre-season and is currently contracted to the practice squad.
But despite being new to the NFL, Wade is well aware of Kaepernick’s situation.
The experienced quarterback is still available having not played competitively since 2017.
Kaepernick, having last been on the books with the San Francisco 49ers, is a hugely divisive figure in the NFL ranks.
In a bid to highlight social injustices, he opted to kneel during the national anthem.
However, his controversial call has led to him being shunned by the sport’s elite.
A comeback looked closer than ever just a few weeks ago, though.
Kaepernick had a workout arranged for him by the NFL at the Atlanta Falcons’ training facility.
But in another twist to the tale, legal wrangles meant it ended up taking place at a local high school.
Wade, who wants to get on the Bills’ roster next season, says the 32-year-old deserves another chance with an NFL franchise.
He told Starsport: “I think he’s a wicked player, man.
“I think there shouldn’t be any reason for him not to be back in the league and doing what he loves to do.”
Wade was an England international rugby union player and managed 82 Premiership tries before opting for a career change.
The 28-year-old says he’s still hoping to make it big Stateside, but admits the learning curve is steep.
“Yes. I get extra attention,” he added. “I’m developing a good relationship with Kelly Skipper, our running backs coach.
“He knows what sort of player I am now. I’m working on the basics: footwork, hand-offs, pass protection.
“I’m still the weakest link in the room, the others all have the skills, I’ve got a lot to learn.
“But I’ve gone from learning the playbook, to now knowing the plays but trying to execute them at the highest level.”

The thermal response of a large and complex city including the energy production aspects of it are explored using urbanized atmospheric mesoscale modeling. The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Mesocale model is coupled to a multilayer urban canopy model that considers thermal and mechanical effects of the urban environment including a building scale energy model to account for anthropogenic heat contributions due to indoor–outdoor temperature differences. This new urban parameterization is used to evaluate the evolution and the resulting urban heat island (UHI) formation associated to a 3-day heat wave in New York City (NYC) during the summer of 2010. High-resolution (250 m) urban canopy parameters (UCPs) from the National Urban Database were employed to initialize the multilayer urban parameterization. The precision of the numerical simulations is evaluated using a range of observations. Data from a dense network of surface weather stations, wind profilers, and Lidar measurements are compared to model outputs over Manhattan and its surroundings during the 3-days event. The thermal and drag effects of buildings represented in the multilayer urban canopy model improves simulations over urban regions giving better estimates of the 2 m surface air temperature and 10 m wind speed. An accurate representation of the nocturnal urban heat island registered over NYC in the event was obtained from the improved model. The accuracy of the simulation is further assessed against more simplified urban parameterizations models with positive results with new approach. Results are further used to quantify the energy consumption of the buildings during the heat wave, and to explore alternatives to mitigate the intensity of the UHI during the extreme event.

Danielle Koeing told Reuters that her requests for information to the federal government have been unanswered since April.
“We have not heard anything from the federal government since 23 April,” she said.
On 23 June, immunisation experts sent a joint letter alongside state and local public health officials to Operation Warp Speed, the Trump administration’s vaccine research initiative, pleading for guidance.
Claire Hannan, executive director of the Association of Immunisation Managers, represents one of the four organisations that signed the letter.
“We urgently await federal, state and local collaborative discussions to identify challenges and plan solutions. A vaccination campaign of this magnitude is unprecedented and it’s going to take more than an army,” Ms Hannan said.
“More than an army” is a reference to Mr Trump’s claim that the US military would be used to distribute the vaccines.
The Trump administration insists that the necessary logistics for a vaccine rollout are already in place.
“We’re all set to march when it comes to the vaccine ... And the delivery system is all set. Logistically we have a general that’s all he does is deliver things whether it is soldiers or other items,” Mr Trump said.
“We are way ahead on vaccines, way ahead on therapeutics and when we have it we are all set with our platforms to deliver them very, very quickly.”
Mr Trump’s assurances provide little relief for state leaders left in the dark.
Not only are state leaders and health officials concerned about logistics, they also want to understand who will receive the vaccine first.
It’s unlikely there will be enough vaccine doses available to inoculate the totality of the US population all at once. Decisions must be made on what populations will receive the vaccine first.
Even with an efficient distribution plan in place, health officials fear sceptical segments of the public will be unwilling to take the vaccine once it is ready for use.
During a Senate hearing on 2 July, Robert Redfield, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said a public outreach programme to establish trust in the vaccine would be necessary ahead of any successful rollout.
Roy Blunt, a Republican Senator who chairs a panel overseeing health programme funding, is pushing for the CDC to direct any future vaccine distribution efforts.
“They are the only federal agency with a proven track record of vaccine distribution and long-standing agreements with health departments across the country,” Mr Blunt said.

Making a list and checking it twice is not just for Santa Claus. Newtown Labor Day Parade organizers were checking lists once, twice, and maybe multiple times more as coordinating the parade entries got underway, early Monday morning, September 7, at the top of Main Street. While organizers tweaked the order of march, thousands of paradegoers settled in along the parade route in anticipation of the annual end of summer event. It wasn't just Newtown residents who were looking forward to the parade. Visitors from all around the area spilled out of friends’ homes along the parade route, or secured a spot at the edge of the road. Friends Riley Burke, 5, and Arianne Lauf, 6, were with their families from Danbury, just to see Newtown’s Labor Day Parade.
Newtown Woman’s Club is ready to begin sales of its newest pewter Christmas ornament. The 2015 ornament — which has once again been produced by Woodbury Pewterers, Inc — depicts Newtown Hall at Fairfield Hills. The building was one of three that stood at the entrance to the state psychiatric hospital when it opened in June 1933. The Newtown Hall ornament will be available for purchase for the first time this year during the Labor Day Parade. On Monday, September 7, Project Chair Mary Antey will have a table set up in front of C.H. Booth Library, at 25 Main Street. She will be selling ornaments to paradegoers that morning and early afternoon. The ornaments are still $10 each.
“We’re serving as a bridge to connect people to the horses. The horses are really the therapists,” said PATH (Professional Association for Therapeutic Horsemanship) certified therapeutic riding instructor Diana Kruzshak. Ms Kruzshak and Christine Patella, of Therapeutic Recreation Center in Woodbridge and director of the Animal-Assisted Therapy Services at Miles Hill Farm in Guilford, have joined with Barbara Gaydosh of Timber Hill Farm on Huntingtown Road to open Animal-Assisted Therapy Services, an equine therapy program. The first session will begin Saturday, September 19, said Ms Kruzshak, with programs geared to people of all ages on the autism spectrum, and for riders who suffer from emotional, physical, and mental issues.

A firebrand Zimbabwean teachers union is threatening to pull out its members from school by March 20 should schools not be closed forthwith.
By Kudakwashe Pembere
The Rural Teachers Union calls for the closure of schools with immediate effect as the country prays to be spared by the menacing Coronavirus Disease.
“Almost all schools have a population of more than 100 people who spend the day together. Therefore in the wake of this pandemic, ARTUZ wishes to advice the ministry to immediately close all government schools on the 20th of March 2020, failure to that ARTUZ will not hesitate to withdraw its members from schools,” said the Union’s secretary general Mr Robson Chere.
ARTUZ arrived at this decision following the declaration of the COVID-19 as a National Disaster by President Emmerson Mnangagwa.
“The matter above refers to the Amalgamated Rural Teachers Union Of Zimbabwe, ARTUZ a public service association representing the interest Of teachers.
After consultations with our members concerning the dangers being posed by the pandemic Corona virus in our schools and having considered the following.
1. The President of the Republic of Zimbabwe has already issued a statement banning all public gathering of people more than 100
2. There are no serious measures that have been put in place for every school to prepare for the prevention of the spread of Covid-19
3. Most schools in rural areas have no running water at all for teachers and for people to simply wash their hands,” said Mr Chere.
With the President saying schools are to be closed in the next two weeks,Mr Chere added that Schools do not usually set end of term examinations this first term and as such they are already winding down since we are only 2 weeks before school close.
“Parents for our pupils are already coming back home from abroad for the Easter holiday, it has to be noted that some of our parents are coming from countries that are hard hit by the Corona pandemic which leaves us in an exposed situation.
6. Almost all schools have a population of more than 100 people who spend the day together. Therefore in the wake of this pandemic, ARTUZ wishes to advice the ministry to immediately close all government schools on the 20th of March 2020, failure to that ARTU2 will not hesitate to withdraw its members from schools.
Further to that, we request for an Education Sector Indaba to further dialogue on strategies that we might take so as to upscale our preparedness in the face of Corona virus,” he said.

Find a set of attractive posters (PDF) to exlain learning styles at this website (scroll down completely!):http://www.teachingideas.co.uk/more/pshe/contents.htm
There are also labels you may want to use.
An attractive way to deal with MI in class is by doing some activities specific for each intelligence, e.g. asking pupils to use their arms to show the time to a classmate (kinaesthetic / body smart), organising vocabulary into categories or a logical sequence of their own choice (logical-mathematical + kinaesthetic), etc. After having done these activities ask pupils for their preferences by having them stand by ‘their’ poster and pick up their label. Use the posters to explain some more what kind of activities cater for the pupils’ preferred intelligences and ask if they recognise this. Try to refer to activities you normally do in language class if you can.
Let me know your ideas on how to use these posters!
On the other hand…
This professor actually believes learning styles don’t exist : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIv9rz2NTUk

The perfect blend of tangy and savory makes this dish a true standout.
|12 oz uncooked angel hair pasta|
|1/2 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves, divided|
|1 tbsp olive oil|
|l1 1/2 b large uncooked shrimp (21-25 per pound), peeled and deveined|
|6 garlic cloves, pressed|
|1 tbsp Chipotle Rub|
|1 cup dry white wine|
|6 tbsp butter|
|3/4 cup chicken broth|
|1/2 tsp salt|
- Bring salted water to a boil in covered stockpot. Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, chop cilantro; reserve 3 tbsp for garnish. Drain pasta; toss with remaining cilantro.
- Meanwhile, add oil to skillet; heat over medium-high heat 1-3 minutes or until shimmering. Combine shrimp, pressed garlic and rub in large mixing bowl; toss to coat. Arrange shrimp in a single layer over bottom of Skillet; cook 2-3 minutes or until browned on one side and edges are pink. Remove Skillet from heat and turn shrimp over with tongs (removing the skillet from the heat and then turning the shrimp prevents them from overcooking) ; let stand 1-2 minutes or until centers of shrimp are opaque. Remove shrimp from Skillet, set aside and keep warm.
- Juice limes to measure 1/4 cup juice. Add wine to same Skillet. Cook over medium-high heat 3-4 minutes or until wine is reduced by half, stirring to loosen browned bits from bottom of Skillet using a whisk. Add butter, juice, broth and salt; cook 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Drizzle pasta with sauce. Top with shrimp; garnish with reserved cilantro.
Yield: 6 servings

Infectious agents cause approximately 20% of all human cancer cases worldwide, with higher rates in low-income countries. Six human viruses, including high-risk alpha human papillomaviruses (HPV), hepatitis B (HBV) and C (HCV) viruses, human T-cell lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV-1), Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), and Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (HHV-8), have been classified as class 1 carcinogens by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. In addition, the Helicobacter pylori bacterium as well as the Opisthorchis viverrini, Clonorchis sinensis, and Schistosoma haematobium helminths have been also defined as class 1 carcinogens to humans. All known oncogenic pathogens can promote cell survival and transformation because of their common abilities to cause chronic insults, genetic and epigenetic alterations, deregulated metabolic pathways, and immune escape.
The global burden of pathogen-related cancers is expected to grow with the identification of novel oncogenic microorganisms or uncommon tropism of known agents in the body sites. Paradigmatic is the role of HPV infection in oropharyngeal cancers and the clinical relevance of such association. The cooperation of viruses with environmental risk factors, such as cutaneous HPV types and ultraviolet radiation or HBV and aflatoxin, is another important emerging issue in cancer development. Furthermore, recent findings showed the intriguing effects of microbiota in cancer susceptibility, neoplastic progression, co-infections with carcinogenic agents, and response to therapy.
This collection aims to gather and share novel information focusing on epidemiology, molecular biology, cellular biology, genetics, and epigenetics as well as translational research of infectious agents causing cancer. All types of manuscripts in this scope will be welcome, including research articles, brief reports, and review articles.
Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure you have carefully read the submission guidelines. The complete manuscript should be submitted through the journal submission system. To ensure that you submit to the correct collection please select 'New insights in pathogen-related cancers' in the drop-down menu upon submission.
The Guest Editors have no competing interests with the submissions which they handle through the peer review process. The peer review of any submissions for which the Guest Editors have competing interests is handled by another Editorial Board Member who has no competing interests.

Seriously, I'm not really obsessed with Microsoft! I think they are verging on irrelevance! This sad bloated corporation is still fighting 20th century wars with 20th century technology (Psst! update: We are now in the 21st Century -- but don't tell the brains trust at Redmond!).
But after the revelations surrounding the Live Search Cashback initiative and the vast quantity of bovine faeces distributed by so-called online technology journalists, I have to add my own two bob's worth.
Contrary to the rubbish widely disseminated on the Internet, Live Search Cashback is not a brilliant strategy! Nor is it a case of the "The Empire Strikes Back!" as some silly journalists have proclaimed. It is sheer desperation! Not content with bleeding to death slowly, Microsoft have now decided to open their veins completely, and demonstrate to the rather disinterested public how much of their own lifeblood they can spill before the pallor of cash deprivation immobilises them and drives them out of the online search market altogether.
The desperate idea of giving away money to consumers as a possible means of gaining market share will eventually cause concern amongst the bean-counters in Redmond's central money bin. The one thing the geniuses, who came up with this idea, forgot was the important three R's of search. And here, I will enumerate all three important principles. They are:
That's right folks! If you are in the search business, irrelevant results mean death! And it doesn't matter how much money you give away to online users! If your search results are not relevant, you don't increase your market share. And consequently, you slowly bleed to death. Whether or not you choose to increase the amount of blood you spill (as Microsoft has) does nothing to make the search more effective. It just hastens the rate at which you bleed.
Oh! And how do you get relevant results?.
With powerful, lean, mean, open source search engines.

Travel Quote of the Week: I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it – but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor. – Oliver Wendel Holmes
Some people are just contended to be in their own comfort zone. Others can’t stand being in one place for a long time. I chose the latter. I believe that the world offers more than what I am getting within my own comfort zone. Traveling makes me see things beyond what I see in my own surroundings. It makes my world more exciting. It widen my knowledge on many things including learning more about myself. It widens my horizons as I explore my freedom to live the way I want my life to be.
No matter where the wind will take me, for as long as I am moving, I will always be making the best of what life ought to be….and this is why I continue to leave my home and wander about to places I’ve never seen before!
What about you?

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is having a really hard time hiring enough cybersecurity pros.
The agency has not hired about nearly 40% — or 52 of the 134 — of the computer scientists for which it has been authorized, and five of 56 field offices are still lacking a computer scientist for their cyber units, according to an audit released Thursday by the Department of Justice’s inspector general.
The audit cites recruitment challenges, given that private sector positions in cybersecurity typically offer higher salaries and a simpler background check process. The median salary for a so-called ethical hacker is more than $70,000, according to the compensation website PayScale.com — a figure recruiters say computer science graduates can earn off the bat. Salaries can run as high as nearly $125,000 for security engineers, and past $200,000 for chief information security officers.
Another reason: The agency may attract 5,000 candidates to a recruitment event, but only about 2,000 end up meeting eligibility requirements, a human resources official told the inspector general’s office. Only about two of the eligible candidates were actually hired. Here’s why: The FBI wants U.S. citizens who haven’t used marijuana in the last three years, or any other illegal drug in the last 10 years, and even subjects applicants to polygraph tests. Tack on the fact that a computer scientist can find a higher salary in the private sector, and that whittles down the pool even further.
Competition to attract recruits is fierce. Jobs for information security analysts are expected to grow 37% from 2012 to 2022, the Bureau of Labor Statistics projects, as companies bolster defenses to avoid becoming the next headline.
To lure more cybersecurity pros, the agency puts people through a two-year information technology Master’s program at Carnegie Mellon University, in exchange for a three-year commitment to investigate cyber intrusion threats at the FBI. The FBI plans to start up a similar program with New York University Polytechnic School of Engineering. The inspector general’s report is focused on the “Next Generation Cyber Initiative,” a program that supports FBI efforts to predict and prevent hacks against the U.S. by recruiting, among other responsibilities.
The FBI is considering implementing a private-sector internship program, through which its cybersecurity officials could leave the agency and work elsewhere for a period of time, Richard Jacobs, assistant special agency in charge of the cyber branch at the FBI’s New York office, told MarketWatch. That stint would offer employees new experiences — potentially helping with retention — and give the agency private-sector perspective after their return, Jacobs says.
“Keeping them for the long-term is a challenge,” he says. “These folks are very marketable.”

The influence of practical work in the understanding of scientific concepts has been receiving the attention of many scholars all over the world. In particular, the need to address the little or no consideration of practical work in science teaching/learning process in distance education seems to have received greater attention. This paper focuses on students’ perception of practical work in learning chemistry through distance education. Data were collected from 100 chemistry students of National Open University of Nigeria using questionnaire surveys. The findings revealed that students placed a high value on practical work in the learning of chemistry courses in distance education. Further investigation on this issue may help instructional designers and chemistry curriculum developers to design and incorporate practical activities into chemistry courses in distance education.

Today’s top stories
New data from South Africa suggests the Omicron variant spreads more than twice as quickly as the Delta variant, and that immunity from prior infection doesn't appear to protect a person very well against Omicron variant.
Why it matters: The findings are extremely preliminary, and there are still many open questions about how well vaccines work against the variant. But these initial breadcrumbs of data are helping the world begin to understand what it's up against.
AI companies are developing methods to translate and synthesize voices in ads, movies and TV.
Why it matters: The advances in voice synthesis could help fix bad movie dubbing — and they come as international content is becoming increasingly important to studios and streaming platforms as part of the globalization of entertainment.

A new short film warns of the coming risks posed by the development and proliferation of lethal autonomous weapons.
Why it matters: Drones with the ability to autonomously target and kill without the assistance of a human operator are reportedly already being used on battlefields, and time is running out to craft a global ban of what could be a destabilizing and terrifying new class of weapon.
- Health: Coronavirus variant surveillance varies widely by state — Omicron cases confirmed in 5 U.S. states — America probably won't lead the effort to understand Omicron.
- Vaccines: Omicron adds urgency to vaccinating world — Omicron fuels the case for COVID boosters — Moderna loses patent battles tied to COVID vaccine — Pfizer could have vaccine data for children under five by end of 2021, CEO says.
- Politics: Nevada to impose insurance surcharge on unvaccinated state workers — New Jersey GOP lawmakers defy statehouse COVID policy — Oklahoma sues Biden administration over Pentagon vaccine mandate — Omicron travel bans are sign of what's to come.
- World: WHO: Delta health measures help fight Omicron — COVID cases surge in South Africa in sign Omicron wave is coming — Germany approves new restrictions for unvaccinated people.
- Variant tracker: Where different strains are spreading.
The parents of a 15-year-old accused of killing four students and wounding seven other people at a Michigan high school have been charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter, according to court documents.
The latest: Lawyers for James and Jennifer Crumbley told the Detroit News they are "returning to the area to be arraigned," after law enforcement officials announced a search for the Crumbleys had been initiated.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is demanding a legally binding guarantee that NATO will not expand east — including to Ukraine — and plans to raise the issue in an upcoming phone call with President Biden, according to the Kremlin.
Why it matters: Russia has massed more than 94,000 troops on the border with Ukraine and could be preparing for a large-scale invasion at the end of January, Ukraine's defense minister said Friday.
Whatever you think about the economy, you’ll find something in this morning’s conflicting jobs report to reinforce your views: America's job market is white-hot and the labor market is anemic.
Between the lines: The conflict comes from the two separate surveys the government uses to compile the report.
- Musk ranks No. 1 on the global Bloomberg Billionaires Index, with a net worth of $284 billion.
The largely successful U.S. effort to hobble China's Huawei has benefitted a host of other tech companies — from smartphone makers such as Apple and Xiaomi to chipmakers like Qualcomm to network vendors including Nokia and Ericsson.
Yes, but: The massive disruption to the industry furthered an industry wide mismatch between supply and demand, exacerbating the global chip shortage.
If the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, abortions could be harder to access even in states where they remain legal, because those clinics could be flooded with patients from states that have cracked down.
The big picture: This has happened before, and clinics fear the crush of demand would be a major problem in the immediate wake of a decision that would allow states to ban abortion.
Richard Delgado, one of the founders of the critical race theory movement, tells Axios he and his wife have been receiving a steady stream of threatening messages since the coordinated, conservative campaign against critical race theory began.
Why it matters: Educators across the country — even some elementary school teachers — have faced harassment and threats over the past year over lesson plans that teach about systemic racism in the U.S.
Speed up the taper, supercharge communication and release the digital coin white paper — this is advice to the Federal Reserve from a surprising source: college kids.
The backstory: For a few minutes each year, the students act as Fed officials and compete to pitch staffers the best direction for the nation’s economy.
Burnout, better opportunities and concern about being permanently branded a "Harris person" is driving some of the turnover in Vice President Kamala Harris's office, people familiar with the situation tell Axios.
Why it matters: Harris is not only a heartbeat from the presidency but, by virtue of her office, the presumed 2024 frontrunner if President Biden doesn't seek re-election. There's been an inordinate amount of disarray — and, now, turnover — throughout her tenure.
Some states are much more likely to catch cases of the Omicron variant early on — including California and Minnesota, which did, in fact, find the first two confirmed U.S. cases.
The big picture: Omicron has thrust the U.S.'s genetic surveillance capabilities back into the spotlight. And the more cases sequenced, the better the chances of finding the variant before it takes off.
Health measures taken to combat COVID-19 before the emergence of Omicron would also help against the new variant of concern, World Health Organization officials said Friday.
What they're saying: Takeshi Kasai, WHO regional director for the Western Pacific, said during a virtual briefing broadcast from Manila, Philippines, that border controls imposed by the U.S. and other nations can "buy time" to deal with the variant, but warned "every country and every community must prepare for new surges in cases."
The Senate voted 69-28 to pass legislation Thursday night to fund the government until February 18.
Why it matters: The move staves off a government shutdown but lawmakers still have a busy month ahead: Congress needs to work out a deal to raise the debt ceiling in a few weeks and Democrats are trying to pass their behemoth social spending bill.
Chinese ride-hail giant DiDi said it will delist from the New York Stock Exchange, following a Chinese government crackdown on foreign listings.
Why it matters: This reflects how geopolitical tensions are bleeding into the capital markets.
Hawaii became on Thursday the fifth state to confirm the newly discovered Omicron variant after New York announced five new cases earlier in the day.
The latest: In Hawaii, the variant was found in an unvaccinated O'ahu resident with moderate symptoms who had previously been infected with COVID-19, per a state health department statement. The variant has also been confirmed in California, Colorado and Minnesota.
A major Democratic donor and Nord Stream 2 lobbyist has made maximum campaign contributions this year to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and vulnerable Senate Democrats, campaign finance records show.
Why it matters: If pressure from the White House to vote against reimposing sanctions on the Russia-backed natural gas pipeline weren't enough, Democrats who back such legislation also will be at loggerheads with one of their party's top fundraisers.
Mitch McConnell has told colleagues and donors Senate Republicans won't release a legislative agenda before next year's midterms, according to people who've attended private meetings with the minority leader.
Why it matters: Every midterm cycle, there are Republican donors and operatives who argue the party should release a positive, pro-active governing outline around which candidates can rally. McConnell adamantly rejects this idea, preferring to skewer Democrats for their perceived failures.
South Africa alerted the world to the Omicron variant. Now data out of South Africa may serve as a warning of what we're facing.
Driving the news: South Africa recorded 11,535 new cases Thursday with 22.4% of tests coming back positive — up from an average of about 300 new cases, with a 2% test positivity rate 10 days earlier. The country's top public health officials expect that exponential rise to continue as Omicron rapidly becomes the dominant variant.
BuzzFeed is set to become publicly traded on Monday, after shareholders of a SPAC called 890 Fifth Avenue Partners voted to approve a previously-announced merger.
Yes, but: The vast majority of the money the SPAC raised in January was yanked, a signal that investors aren't very optimistic about BuzzFeed's future prospects.

Small painful mouth sores can be anywhere in the mouth lips, soft palate, hard palate, cheeks, gum base, tongue and even on the roof of the mouth. When situated inside the mouth, they can cause pain during eating or swallowing, especially with hot or spicy foods. A bigger cause for concern is that these mouth sores or mouth ulcers or canker sores could be an indication of an underlying health condition. A lot of chronic diseases, including HIV, herpes, and syphilis, manifest themselves as mouth sores. The following are some of the health conditions to watch out for when you have mouth sores. Each disease has characteristic appearance and so very often are easy to identify.
1. Herpes simplex (HSV1): The herpes simplex virus causes sores on the lips only which are usually painful with red blisters that last about 10 to 14 days. These are caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 and the sores appear about 20 days after contracting the virus. Also, once they enter the system, they can cause recurrent attacks especially when the immunity is low.
2. Canker sore: The most common type of mouth ulcer, they are also known as aphthous ulcers and are usually seen on the soft tissues of the mouth (not the hard palate or the gum base). These are generally innocuous and heal within 5 to 7 days. Do reach out for medical help if there are more than 5 to 6 bouts of canker sores in a year.
3. Oral thrush: Also known as candidiasis, this is where there are whitish lesions on the tongue and the insides of the mouth. Candida is a fungus that is normally present in the mouth, but when the immune system is weakened, it can lead to an infection, orally manifested as white lesions. These are typical and appear in toddlers and in patients with anemia, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, or cancer patients on chemotherapy.
4. HIV/AIDS: Another disease which first can be diagnosed in the mouth is HIV/AIDS. In the first stages of infection, known as acute retroviral syndrome, where the first symptoms of the disease begin to manifest, oral ulcers are one of the first symptoms. With the other associated symptoms, more workup for diagnosis should be done followed by appropriate treatment.
5. Oral cancers: The lining of the inside of the mouth can develop cancer and usually it appears in the form of chronic non healing ulcer that just does not go away. Seen anywhere in the mouth, nonhealing ulcers are a cause for concern and should be investigated and treated.
As seen above, mouth sores may be harmless often, but in some cases, may have something more to tell about the health in some cases. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a dermatologist.
Pregnancy may bring a glow to your face, but can affect your dental health quite adversely. Thus it is important to pay attention to your dental care routine and visit your dentist regularly for checkups. Most of the changes in your dental health are due to hormonal surges that occur during pregnancy.
- Pregnancy and plaque buildup: Pregnancy can aggravate gum diseases like gingivitis. This is caused by the buildup of plaque on the teeth and is characterized by red, swollen and bleeding gums. Pregnancy gingivitis affects of majority of pregnant women. If left untreated, it can lead to a more serious condition known as periodontitis. The swelling of gums can also trigger the development of pregnancy tumours and non-cancerous growths. These tumours will usually subside on their own after delivery. However, if they interfere with eating or your dental care routine, your dentist may advise you to get it removed. A link has also been suggested between gingivitis and the delivery of premature babies by triggering the production of prostaglandins that induce an early delivery.
- What to keep in mind while visiting the dentist: Regular dental checkups are as important as your gynecological checkups. Be open with your dentist and let him know the status of your pregnancy. Dental visits are recommended in the first, second and third trimester of pregnancy. At your visit, the dentist will assess the condition of your teeth and suggest an oral care routine. Getting your teeth regularly cleaned can prevent the buildup of plaque and lower your chances of suffering from gingivitis. Regular fillings and non emergency procedures can be performed during pregnancy. However, the best time to undergo any dental procedure if you are pregnant is between the 4th and 6th month. Avoid X-rays unless in cases of emergencies when pregnant. If you need to take any form of medication or need to put under anesthesia, consult your gynecologist about the procedure. Wherever possible, try and postpone dental treatment till after delivery.
- Brushing while pregnant: Along with brushing your teeth regularly, it is also important to use the right toothpaste when pregnant. Choose fluoride toothpastes and mouthwashes for your daily routine. Rinsing your mouth with mouthwash can also help curb morning sickness and erase its distaste from your mouth. Flossing can also help keep your teeth healthy. Along with this, include plenty of vitamin C and B12 in your diet to prevent dental problems.

Thanks! The dimmering is just done via a potentiometer (manual), but this function is really only there to set intensity/color blend of the LEDs. I have the drivers on two different timers, so the RBs come on first and go off last, to 'dummy' a sunrise/sunset effect. With the meanwells ( -P model), you can set them up to run off a controller. Then the dimming at sunrise/sunset could be automated. I don't run a controller as I like to do everything manually. I gladly take that piece of mind with the cost of the labor.

Crouching tiger, FAST ASLEEP dragon: Smugglers can't shift iPhone 6s
China's grey market reports 'sluggish' sales of Apple mobe
Chinese grey market sales of Apple's new iPhone 6 have been sluggish, according to local sources, as the Middle Kingdom fails to warm to the smartphones.
The country's fertile grey market is usually overcome with intense demand following the announcement of a new iPhone, as the mobes are generally released a few weeks later than other territories.
However, after sending their cronies to queue outside Apple stores around the world, the poor Chinese scalpers reportedly are finding that no one wants their carefully smuggled goods.
“iPhone 6 stocks are way too high right now,” said one purveyor of grey iPhones in Zhongguancun, a Beijing tech hub. Smuggled iPhones generally come into China from Hong Kong, with a markup of about $325 (£200).
Some poor soul (with a valid Hong Kong ID card) is paid to stand in line for a new iPhone, which is then skillfully smuggled into China, and eventually distributed across the country.
But, smugglers are not only reporting fewer sales, but a dwindling markup, with some wholesalers reporting profits of just $163 per device.
Hong Kong cops recently seized almost 300 devices from a group of men who were allegedly trying to transport them through a mangrove swamp to a waiting speedboat.
However, research firm IDC suggested Cupertino could still expect to shift four million iPhones a month in the Asian powerhouse, and already has a current Chinese user base of about 50 million.
The dwindling popularity of grey market iPhones could be down to a crackdown on state corruption, which has caused normally lavish apparatchiks to curb their spending. There are also rumours suggesting the government has ordered staff to use domestically manufactured phones in the wake of the Snowden leaks.
Apple is expected about to start selling the new pair of iPhones in China on October 10.

New York City’s luxury rental market is thriving with prices up 6% this year, while those in London continues to tumble under travel restrictions
- Rents in Manhattan rose 5.9% through March, while London fell 14.3%
- The New York market is getting a boost from the better economic outlook
- London remains badly affected by restrictions on international travel
The luxury rental market in New York City is rapidly recovering from pandemic stagnation, while prices in London continue to fall, new data shows.
In Manhattan’s most expensive neighborhoods, rents rose 5.9 percent this year through March, while in central London, prices fell 14.3 percent over the same period, according to data from Knight Frank.
While New York City has been buoyed by the improving US economic outlook and vaccine roll-out, the London market continues to suffer from international travel restrictions.
“There is generally greater optimism in the US market,” said Kate Everett-Allen, Knight Frank’s chief of international residential research. Bloomberg.

“What we’ve seen in London, and we’ve seen it in New York, in recent months is that the number of leases is starting to rise and the pace of rent declines is really starting to slow down,” she said.
Both London and New York have taken steps in recent months to ease pandemic restrictions, although New York has arguably moved more aggressively, with Mayor Bill de Blasio and Governor Andrew Cuomo vying over who can lift the restrictions faster.
In London, the supply of luxury rentals has increased significantly due to the closure of the short-term rental market, but demand has been limited due to international travel restrictions.
However, analysts at the brokerage and consulting firm see the trend approaching a low point and predict that London rents could rise rapidly.
‘As the UK continues to unlock the economy and people take up residence permits, the flow of short let properties that have entered the long let market will start to wane and the declines in rental value will eventually reverse’, Tom Bill, head of UK Residential research at Knight Frank, said in a statement.
“ Question marks remain around international travel, affecting the demand side of the equation, although the rules should relax from next month, ” he added.

The agency notes that a trend toward city flight during the pandemic has begun to reverse, with some tenants choosing to move closer to central London to take advantage of lower rents.
“There has always been a group of people living on the periphery of central London who couldn’t afford to move on,” David Mumby, head of Prime Central London Lettings at Knight Frank, said in a February note.
“That has changed and we are seeing movement from Wandsworth and even Croydon to Chelsea and South Kensington.”
In New York, median rents in both Manhattan and Brooklyn have started to recover, according to data from Douglas Elliman.
However, total rental vacancy in Manhattan was 9 percent higher in March than a year ago, and prices fell 14 percent.
In Brooklyn, median rents were 10 percent lower than a year ago, but higher than in January.

Why did European people want to come to Rēkohu?
- They believed that Rēkohu was a pacific paradise, with plenty of natural resources
- Rēkohu had no law or regulations and settlers could take what land they needed
- There were plenty of opportunities to make a good living on Rēkohu
- The natives wouldn’t resist Europeans settling wherever they wanted
- There wouldnt be any upper class people bossing settlers around
- It turns out that New Zeland was becoming just like the old country, whereas they had heard that Rēkohu was free
- It was just far enough away from society, but close enough when needed
What was the boat trip like?
- The boat trip there was horrendous. Heaving seas, endless fog or spirited Sou’West gales provided the worst conditions.
- Nearly everyone got seasick.
- Not everyone survived, especially on those long trips from America. The dead were hastily ‘buried’ at sea.
- Some of those that only came from New Zealand fared better, but the conditions when they arrived were pretty primitive.
- Weather conditions were unpredictable.
- The on-shore winds while on the anchorage caused mayhem and many were caught out.
- The food was abysmal and depending on what was served and how long since setting off, could usually be summed up by at least two of the following terms: rancid, rotten, damp, mouldy or ‘alive’.
When we left Boston, we took aboard a plentiful supply of foods. There were dried peas and beans, potatoes, rice, hard tack biscuits, salt pork, salt beef, salt fish, dry fruits, and hogsheads of molasses. We also shipped crates of pigs, chickens, ducks, and goats. It transpired that these animals were better fed than the steerage passengers. Better even than the crew. They were there to keep the Cap’n and his wife and the officers fed, while we were given gruel and and dried bread, complete with a free helping of maggots, weevils, worms or roaches, depend’n on the menu. Many a time dislodging them was forgone in favour of consuming them to supplement the meagre fare.
What was Rēkohu like for those early settlers?
After the disastrous start to the European presence on the islands, the next “white” visitors were a little more careful to not get off to such a bad start, so used bribery and largess to establish their foothold on Rēkohu.
By careful management and not an insubstantial amount of deceit, misrepresentation, brigandry and manipulation, the Europeans quickly established their claims (irrespective of the lack of understanding of this concept among the local Moriori ) to whatever lands they liked. They set about clearing land, building shelters and making the most of their new domain.
Wasnt no-one using it side from some aborigines making camp in passing there. They didnt seem inclined to object, so we just stayed. Of course we cleared some trees and dug ground for planting necessities. They seemed fretful about the trees but we needed the wood.
The lack of commodities and time between ships visits was the hardest part, but it was only a matter of a few years and suddenly Rēkohu was literally awash with visiting ships, calling in on the hope of getting fresh supplies (and fresh water) before (or after) heading for the rich whaling grounds to the south.
We built our second hut using the punga which grew in abundance over the islands. Lashed together with the flax strips and caulked with moss and mud and topped with a thatched roof, it was quite weather proof and a welcome respite from the endless winds that beset these islands.
Life was particularly difficult for the families of those few settlers that had brought them with them to these far flung shores. Often, the whole family lived in a singe room rough hut. Food and supplies were scarce until crops could be established and harvested.
We built our hut the same as those we were raised in back in the old country, for generations. Half dugout with cob upper walls and a thatched roof. Obviously we had not the soils for good cob, but we did have the peat sods. Whilst we were pressed for time, we still took every care to ensure it was worthy, but every downpour turned the floor to mud.
Some settlers quickly found that some staple crops would not grow easily, yet others thrived.
Our hut never ever had glass windows and I lived there for 25 years before I moved. Our nearest neighbours had lived there since before my family settled there and their hut never had a tin roof, so in the wildest of storms they had a leaky roof as water made its way in through the thatching.
Oddly enough, it was discovered that there were several places where wheat grew easily, but there was little free-draining land available and even less cleared land. That New Zealand tuber, the ‘Kumara’ would not grow on Rēkohu, as it preferred the sandy soils of the North Island of New Zealand. Whaler’s potatoes, cabbage and umbelliferae, such as carrots seemed to thrive here.
Many settlers lived in isolation.
It was usually the job of the women and children to prepare meals and look after the young
Of course, initially there were no schools, but even after the first school was opened, harsh conditions, or the need for children to work alongside their families meant that some children never went to school.
As it turned out, growing vegetables like potatoes and cabbages was a lucrative alternative to the dangers and effort involved in chasing whales or seals. And of course, there was a source of very cheap labour around.
What was it like for the settlers once the Māori arrived?
When the Māori arrived, the settlers kept close contact with each other and it was a very scary time, even for them. They were told that they were safe and no harm would come to them, but they didnt feel safe and were seriously outnumbered…. and the settlers were not the only ones with muskets.
It was some time before the killing and the feasts stopped. Even then, every so often groups of Māori would find another Moriori that had hidden away from them. They were usually treated very poorly, but the Europeans could not do anything about it as they were initially fearful of their own situation and were out-numbered many times over.
Occasionally, in the aftermath of the initial onslaught, some lone survivor who had hidden away from the invading Māori , or some escapee bent on freedom (or death) would be found and dragged back to camp and berated, beaten or subjected to some demeaning punishment. One Moriori, called Koche (later came to be known as “King of Pitt Island”) escaped multiple times and each time he was captured, he dared and pushed his ‘owner’ Chief Matioro to kill him. Matioro was determined not to give Koche the satisfaction of dying (on his terms) and continued to mistreat him and ensure his abject misery. Koche had the last say though, as he eventually escaped by stowing away on an American whaler and his story was retold in print in an American newspaper in 1873.
As time passed the Māori settled into their new domain and each left the other alone.
The enterprising Māori saw the Europeans as a source of potential income as well and with their Moriori slaves began providing services and supplies for some of the Europeans and many of the visiting ships.
For many of those settlers that stayed the course, cultivated land, and began raising stock, the wait was worth it and some of the run-holders became very prosperous. Some acquired others blocks and became large landowners, conveniently forgetting about who really ‘owned’ the land.
Others, newcomers and agents alike, purchased their lands from the newer Māori ‘owners’. Some acquired significant holdings in this way from Māori that had no interest in ‘farming.’
What was Rēkohu like for Moriori once the settlers arrived?
Local Moriori were initially not certain what to do about these strange and demanding white men that elbowed their way in.
They seemed harmless enough and they came bearing gifts. They didn’t seem to mean any malice or mischief. Sure, they were rough and didn’t appear to show due deference to the atua, but perhaps they had their own ways of doing so , whence they came.
Initially, there were only a few……………. Once other Moriori around the motu learned of these white men and in many cases, saw them for themselves, the die was cast and they became an accepted part of life. The novelty of these strange irreverent men faded as numbers increased.
The newcomers used Moriori for labour and rewarded them with gifts; material, an axe, fire making stones, and knives. In return they were shown where the best food sources were. Where the best grass grew, the tallest and straightest trees, the sweetest waters and the choicest sea fowl.
These men pushed their way in, further and further. They took our rakau, our shelters, they took our manu, our tuna. They did not thank the atua and they did not show enough respect to papa. They carried fires wherever they went and they cleared much land. They did not understand how we lived.
Many of our people died once the whiteman came. It was sickness that killed them. We could not stop them dying. Hundreds died.
When the Lord Rodney anchored off Whangaroa in November of 1835 and disgorged its human cargo, there was some discussion among the Moriori as they were initially fearful of the New Zealanders, particularly the men who showed no understanding of their customs, language or beliefs.
Moriori knew their own status as the people of the land, the ‘normal’ people and they also knew that these people needed help. So they helped them. Many of them were poorly from their voyage.
What we did not comprehend at the time was their intent. We sensed that they wanted to stay, so we offered to share our world with them. It was a big enough world for all of us normal people, so some more would not matter. The white man was also living among us so we believed that we could cope with these newcomers as well.
It is strongly recommended that you read Chapter 3 of the Michael King Book “Moriori, A People Rediscovered” to get a better understanding of what this meant for Moriori and the chronological turns of events on the Islands.

Twain’s satire shows how ridiculous and dangerous it can be to trust someone based solely on money—or, in this case, on the appearance of having money.

This is a model of schooner-rigged merchant ship built in the early nineteen-hundreds, mainly used as a bulk carrier during peacetime.
The Hunter was originally a British Merchant Navy ship . She was later acquired by Royal Navy for her seafaring capabilities particularly suited to the North Seas, and converted for war duty as a Q-ship.
Like all other Q-ships, she was converted at the Queenstown shipyards in Ireland (hence the term Q-ship), as fitted-out as a decoy to lure submarines to the surface, with false structures to conceal its deck weaponry. These structures were designed for rapid removal and stowage below deck, revealing her guns only during battle ,while lowering its lifeboats into the sea.
