AU, UA team up for $2M project
Goal is to make diesel fuel burn cleaner
Auburn University researchers are working on a bio-based additive to make diesel fuel burn cleaner as part of a $2 million U.S. Department of Energy project that will see researchers at the University of Alabama help test the blend.
The $2 million project led by Auburn is part of about $10 million in funding from the DOE for the co-optimization of engines and fuels. The department is providing $80 million for 42 projects to support advanced vehicles technologies research.
Cornell University, Virginia Tech and corporate partners Microvi Biotech Inc. and EcoEngineers are collaborating on the project.
The project focuses on a process to efficiently produce a bio-based fuel additive called butyl acetate, an organic compound that occurs naturally in various fruit but can also be produced in a lab.
The traditional petrochemical-based production is energy consuming and not environmentally friendly, said Yi Wang, principal investigator for the project and assistant professor in the Department of Biosystems Engineering in Auburn University’s College of Agriculture, in a statement released by Auburn.
Auburn researchers have developed a process using a genetically engineered strain of the bacteria Clostridium that has resulted the highest butyl acetate production that has ever been reported in a microbial host. A patent has been filed from this work.
“In this project, we will further enhance BA (butyl acetate) production through systematic genome engineering,” Wang said. “CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) technology has been used by many different labs, but we are one of the pioneering labs who have developed the customized CRISPR system that can be applied to the solventogenic clostridial strains, which are notoriously difficult to manipulate genetically.”
The additive can be blended with diesel fuel to reduce soot and greenhouse gas emissions and yield cleaner engine operation in cold-weather conditions.
“We anticipate that adding BA (butyl acetate) to diesel fuel will reduce pollutants and costs associated with meeting environmental regulations,” Wang said.
Engineering researchers at UA and Cornell University will test the fuel blend produced by Auburn researchers to study how the mix performs in diesel engines used in commercial trucks.
“Our engine facilities and capabilities complement well with Auburn’s ability to produce the fuel,” said Joshua A. Bittle, assistant professor of mechanical engineering at UA, in a statement released by UA.
Blends with different amounts of butyl acetate will be studied by the engineering researchers at UA. The experimental results will be provided to Auburn researchers to refine the fuel production.
“We are providing research support from the end-user side,” said Ajay K. Agrawal, the Barfield Endowed Chair professor in mechanical engineering at UA, in a statement released by the university. “We will find out how this fuel mix improves engine emissions and efficiency both inside the engine cylinder and in an actual engine during a typical drive cycle.”

Bright and early on January 19, thousands of runners braved the cold and descended on downtown Houston to compete in the Chevron Houston Marathon and Aramco Half Marathon. Andrew Rogers was one of them.
You may remember Andrew from our interview this summer as he was training for the big event.
The night before the big race, Andrew was at First Presbyterian Church Houston for PCHAS’ Annual Pasta Dinner, were he loaded up on carbs, met fellow PCHAS runners and even spoke with us about how he was feeling about the race. “It was a lot of fun getting to gather the night before the marathon to celebrate,” he says. “My wife and I loved getting to meet others who support PCHAS through the marathon, to not only fundraise for PCHAS but to also give of their time and energy in such an intense manner.”
Andrew’s goal was to finish the 26.2 mile race in 4 hours, but since it was his first marathon and he knew anything could happen, his main goal was to finish. At mile 20, he was still on pace to make that goal. Around mile 21, he began to feel pain in his knee and foot, which caused him to limp, hobble and jog the final five miles to the finish line.
“My favorite memory will forever be seeing my wife and children about 100 feet from the finish line and having that moment where I realized, ‘This was worth all the pain!’” he says.
Although it took a lot of hard work and he faced ups and downs throughout his training, Andrew says being part of such an enormous endeavor is an incredible memory and he’s already looking forward to next year.
“I can’t help but think, ‘What if PCHAS ran a team of 50 people, 75 people, 100 people?’ I can just imagine 50 people in their purple PCHAS shirts raising awareness for the awesome work we do for children and families in need.”

I am attending a charity luncheon next month in California with my Marta and her family. She is 'hosting' a table -which is another word for doing alot of work - she will be decorating and setting a table for 8 women who have paid money for the luncheon. The theme she is decorating around is the 50's -yes the era we were born in. She asked me to help -so I made 8 aprons for us to wear at the lunch. They are really cute and colorful if I say so myself and I was so excited to put the finishing touch on each one - a rose.
The roses are called 'zipper flowers' - the center being a gathered zipper!!

I have started a partnership with One Earth - One Ocean (oeoo), a renowned German NGO dedicated to fighting ocean plastic pollution worldwide. Together, we're initiating positive change right here in Bocas del Toro, Panama. The island archipelago consists of numerous mangrove islands, where ocean plastic accumulates with no one addressing the issue.
Teaming up with local plastic processing company Bocas Recycle Center, our mission is to establish a comprehensive recycling structure, introducing oeoo's expertise in plastic recovery and recycling to our shores.
My first step is to coordinate the setup of their new operation that starts with marine debris removal, addressing the root of the problem and building a sustainable, trash-free future for Bocas del Toro and the broader Caribbean.
In Bocas del Toro, the challenge of plastic pollution is starkly evident, with the pristine beauty of the island archipelago marred by the pervasive presence of plastic waste. The mangrove islands, which should stand as sanctuaries of biodiversity, bear witness to the alarming accumulation of plastic debris. The lack of a comprehensive waste management system exacerbates the issue, pushing residents to unsustainable practices like illegal dumping and burning. This not only degrades the local environment but also poses severe threats to marine life and ecosystems.
The partnership between Seas & Straws, oeoo, and Bocas Recycle Center aims to not only address the immediate problem through recycling initiatives but also to instigate a shift towards sustainable practices, creating a model for responsible waste management that can be replicated across the region.
In Bocas del Toro, the Bocas Recycle Center plays a vital role in processing waste, particularly handling materials from tourists and hotels. However, facing challenges such as limited municipal recycling pickup and affordability issues for residents, the Recycle Center processes less than 5% of the total waste on the islands. They've responded to new mandates by launching a subscription service for businesses and exploring a potential deposit system with the local government. The center collects plastics, cardboard, Tetra Pak cartons, aluminum cans, and glass bottles. Materials are responsibly processed, with plastics compacted and sent off the island for recycling, glass crushed for concrete usage, and aluminum cans sold to metal recovery buyers. Collaboration with oeoo holds the promise of expanding recycling efforts, handling more volume, including ocean plastics, and further contributing to the community's well-being.
The Bocas Recycle Center looks forward to a fruitful collaboration, aligning with oeoo's dedication and the municipality's commitment to progress.
One Earth - One Ocean, a non-profit environmental organization headquartered in Munich with offices in Kiel, Battambang/Cambodia, Manila/Philippines, and Rio/Brazil, has been dedicated to the global elimination of plastic waste from the world's waters since 2011. With a comprehensive "Maritime Waste Disposal" concept, oeoo not only processes land-based plastic waste but also collects plastic from global waters using specialized waste collection ships. These include innovative vessels like SeeHamster and SeeKuh, designed for plastic waste removal. Projects are actively underway in Cambodia, Brazil, Indonesia, the Philippines, Uganda, and Egypt, with a groundbreaking initiative, the SeeElefant, set to launch in 2026. This converted multi-purpose freighter will pioneer waste recycling at sea, featuring sorting, shredding, processing, and pressing systems on board. Oeoo is committed to research on microplastics, along with extensive educational and awareness campaigns on marine litter. It's impactful work has earned recognition, including the prestigious GreenTec Award in 2013 and the Federal Ecodesign Award in 2019.
In collaboration with One Earth - One Ocean and the Bocas Recycle Center, Seas & Straws is proud to spearhead the transformative initiative in Bocas del Toro, Panama. As the dedicated Project Manager, I am committed to overseeing the establishment of a comprehensive recycling structure, leveraging oeoo's expertise in plastic recovery and recycling. This partnership marks a significant stride towards a sustainable, trash-free future for Bocas del Toro, addressing the pressing issue of plastic pollution in our oceans.
Together, we aspire to set a precedent for responsible waste management in the Caribbean, emphasizing the importance of collective action for a cleaner, healthier planet. Stay tuned for updates as we continue our journey toward a more sustainable and environmentally conscious community.

What a way to be introduced to True Crime!
Everything. The way it started hooked me, the way it built the twisted family life of Mac Smith was so enthralling that you sometimes felt bad for the guy and wanted him to get off. He was so sympathetic at times, but then you realize...this REALLY HAPPENED! He's a horrible person and should be punished to the extreme!
Any fictional thriller, but fact is always more horrifying than fiction.
My favorite scene I can't really talk about. It's because I think if I did, and people read this review, it might have taken away the emotional impact of the situation. Needless to say, it shook me.
It was. The pacing was perfect, the narration was absolutely engrossing, and the story was better than fiction.
Overall just a flat out, well rounded true crime. Going in not knowing what to expect I sure didn't expect to be listening to it like a fiction work, and definitely didn't expect to feel sympathetic to a horrible criminal at times.

The Smolt Spy is FISHBIO’s first fully custom video monitoring system that can be configured for a variety of applications to monitor juvenile and adult fish. The system consists of high-definition Internet Protocol (IP) digital cameras that operate with a computer and software, and have much higher resolution than the closed-circuit television (CCTV) security cameras that are often used for monitoring. The cameras use wide-angle lenses to help eliminate blind spots, and are paired with infrared lights to provide reliable monitoring during low-light conditions while minimizing disturbance to fish.
A major advantage of the Smolt Spy system is the incorporation of motion-detection software, which records video of passing fish as small as 50 mm and greatly reduces the amount of video to review. Digital videos are sent from the cameras to a connected computer and can be saved to portable hard drives, which allows the system to operate with minimal maintenance. Hard drives are periodically replaced and the videos can be reviewed by a trained fisheries technician to quickly identify and count passing fish. FISHBIO has deployed the Smolt Spy in a variety of settings to monitor fish moving through streams, fish ladders and dam infrastructure.

You love your RV, and you want it to last for as long as possible. As your RV gets older, though, you know there will be certain inevitable repairs and maintenance that you need to do to keep it in good running order. You need to make sure the engine is working properly. You need to have fresh oil, and you need to be sure the tires are in good shape. One of the things that you tend not to think about until it is too late is the roof. However, if you suddenly found out that you had leaks in your roof, what would you do?
If you are like many RV owners, you would panic. You would start imagining just how much it would cost to take the RV to a professional for repair. It might be more than the RV is worth, and it could be more than you can afford. However, you do not have to imaging this doomsday scenario. Instead, consider using RV roof coatings instead. These coating could be just the thing your RV needs to take care of those leaks.
What Are the RV Roof Coatings?
These are elastomeric coatings that are applied to the top of your RV like paint. They can be rolled on with rollers and brushes, or they could be sprayed onto the roof. The coating is a type of rubber that creates a shield between the roof and the outer elements. It means that the leaks will vanish, so you can keep your RV in good shape for a lot longer.
These coating are so popular that many manufacturers today have them on the new RVs they sell. As someone who owns an older RV, it makes sense that you would want to add the RV roof coating, as well. Fortunately, it is easier and more affordable than you might think.
Easy Application of the Coating
You do not need to hire a professional to apply the coating to your RV. You can take care of the entire project on your own. This can save you a substantial amount of money, and it does not take too long to apply the coating, either. Since you are only covering an RV, you should be done in no time at all.
As soon as you have applied the coating, the waterproofing aspect of it goes to work. Even if it were to start raining right after the application goes on, it will still provide protection for your RV. After you clean the roof of the RV, you can make repairs to flashing, vents, and other areas if needed, and can then apply the coating with a roller or a sprayer.
Whether you have noticed a leak or not, the RV roof coatings can be a fantastic investment for your RV. Having the coating will ensure you do not have to worry about leaking, or damage from UV rays. It is a nice solution all around.

I'm a retired teacher and have lived in San Tan Valley AZ for over 5 years. I will admit that, finding this place comfortable to live may have been difficult in the past, but that is certainly not the case today. There is much evidence that San Tan Valley AZ is the perfect place to retire. People from all origins have chosen this city for a peaceful life during their golden years. Classic examples are the active retirement communities in the area. A number of residents have likened this city over Queen Creek and other suburbs of Pinal County.
As for the nightlife, this city can get pretty boring if you are in your early 20s or 30s. There is literally no nightlife in this part of Pinal and people enjoy their spare time shopping, going to theaters and doing recreational activities during the day. In sharp contrast, this city has many cuisines and interesting restaurants for friends and families to enjoy food, such as Tamari Fine Japanese Cuisine, Lotus Garden Chines Cuisine and Barro's Pizza. The ambience in these cuisines are unbeatable as well. The pizza restaurant has very large customer base as this is in close proximity to major shopping areas.
San Tan Valley is family centric in the sense, you can see that many people living here are families with school going children, There are some fantastic schools with great ratings and year-round athletic programs. There are many places where you can go hiking; I have lost 20 pounds just by walking these trails for 3 months. Basically, you can get cheap housing here if you are looking in the right place. This city has some great markets for groceries and clothing as well.

Disc jockeys, often referred to as DJs, have played a significant role in shaping the music scene in Toronto throughout its vibrant history. From the early days of vinyl records to the digital era, DJs have been at the forefront of entertainment, captivating audiences and pushing the boundaries of musical expression. In this blog post, we will delve into the rich history of DJ services in Toronto, exploring their rise, the venues they frequented, and the cultural impact they have had on the city’s nightlife.
The Birth of the Disc Jockey
The term “disc jockey” originated in the 1930s and referred to radio personalities who played recorded music on the airwaves. As the popularity of radio grew, so did the recognition of DJs as tastemakers and curators of musical content. Their ability to select and present music to a wide audience made them influential figures in the world of entertainment.
The Emergence of DJ Culture in Toronto
In the 1970s, Toronto witnessed the emergence of a vibrant DJ culture, fueled by the growing popularity of disco music. Nightclubs and discotheques became hotspots where DJs showcased their skills, blending records seamlessly and creating an electrifying atmosphere. These early pioneers of the Toronto DJ scene, such as Gino Soccio and David Knapp, paved the way for future generations of DJs and set the stage for the city’s thriving nightlife.
The Rise of House Music and the DJ Renaissance
The 1980s marked a turning point for DJs in Toronto as house music gained momentum. This electronic genre, characterized by its infectious beats and soulful melodies, became the soundtrack of the underground club scene. DJs like Frankie Knuckles and Ron Hardy from Chicago played a significant role in popularizing house music, and their influence transcended borders, reaching Toronto. The city became a hub for house music enthusiasts, with DJs like Chris Sheppard and Kenny Glasgow captivating audiences with their unique sound.
The Technological Revolution
As the 1990s unfolded, technological advancements revolutionized the DJ landscape in Toronto. Vinyl records were gradually replaced by CDs, and eventually, digital DJing emerged with the advent of software like Serato and Traktor. DJs now had access to vast digital music libraries, enabling them to explore a wide range of genres and experiment with new sounds. This era witnessed the rise of DJ collectives, such as A.D/D and Promise, who pushed boundaries and curated unforgettable club experiences.
From Nightclubs to Festivals
The 21st century saw the Toronto DJ scene extend beyond nightclubs into the realm of music festivals. Events like the Electric Island Festival and Veld Music Festival provided platforms for local and international DJs to showcase their talents to larger audiences. DJs such as Deadmau5 and A-Trak, hailing from Toronto, achieved worldwide recognition, solidifying the city’s reputation as a breeding ground for exceptional DJ talent.
The Present and Future of DJs in Toronto
Today, DJs in Toronto continue to push boundaries and shape the musical landscape. With the rise of streaming platforms and social media, DJs have new avenues to connect with their audiences and share their music. The city’s diverse and multicultural character has also influenced DJs to explore and incorporate a wide range of global sounds into their sets, fostering a rich and inclusive music scene.
From the birth of disc jockeys in radio to the present-day digital age, the evolution of disc jockeys has played a vital role in Toronto’s music history. Their ability to curate, blend, and innovate has not only entertained audiences but also shaped the city’s cultural identity. As we look to the future, it’s clear that DJs in Toronto will continue to captivate and inspire, leaving an indelible mark on the ever-evolving music landscape.

Best way to mesh closed pipe-loop
Join Date: Nov 2012
Posts: 34Rep Power: 6
I am modelling a rectangular(with branching at top and bottom) natural circulation loop with isothermal heat source and heat sink and the rest of the surfaces are adiabatic.
I am unable to mesh the closed loop properly.If I use the default mesh generate
option,I am getting 1 million cells.I also need to redefine mesh near the wall for the boundary layer.
Out of the many meshing methods available in ansys mesher,
which one would be suitable for this?
Also how can i convert tetrahedral(triangular) mesh to quad mesh?
I am attaching a pic of the geometry.One pic is of the whole geometry.
2nd pic is of upper-right zoomed-in section of the geometry showing tetrahedral cells.
Any help is appreciated.Thnx

Some analysts close to Silicon Valley say the dream has run its course and that innovation is now a euphemism for the proliferation of social media websites with ever-smaller niches. Others, such as Todd Hoff, disagree. The High Scalability blogger believes the development of cloud-computing is encouraging a new kind of innovation based on data storage and meta-computations. Beyond Instagram and Pinterest, biomedical companies like DNAnexus and Bina Technologies are using big data capabilities in concert with cloud storage to revolutionize genetics research.
What’s the Big Idea?
What Silicon Valley pessimists may be unable to see is that cloud computing is disrupting Silicon Valley itself, using scalable technology to offer business software, for example, as a service rather than a strictly physical good. “And if you’re trying to make money,” said GigaOm’s Derrick Harris, “who wouldn’t make a small bet on a business that can scale like crazy overnight in terms of both users and infrastructure?” While social media tend to be treated as catch-all entities, they are a very diverse and profound change in how people communicate–one that will evolve as cloud technology advances.


PUNE, India, Sept. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Commenting on the walkie talkie market report, an analyst said: "The latest trend gaining momentum in the market is Increase in use of smartphone networks or Wi-Fi connections. A trend that is being observed in the walkie takie market is the use of cellular networks such as LTE in walkie talkies for communication. This is mostly being seen in digital radios, where radios are being equipped with chipsets capable of using LTE or even Wi-Fi, for nearby communication."
The analysts forecast global Walkie Talkie Market to grow at a CAGR of 9.47% during the period 2017-2021. According to the report, one of the major drivers for this market is Augmented disposable income. Disposable income is described as the summation of household final consumption expenditure and savings, after deducting the change in net equity of households in pension funds. It also corresponds to the sum of mixed income, wages and salaries, net current transfers, net property income, and social benefits excluding social transfers in kind, less taxes on income and wealth, and social security contributions paid by employees, the self-employed and the unemployed.
Main players in the global walkie talkie market: Motorola Solutions, Hytera Communications, JVCKENWOOD, ICOM, and Tait Communications. Other Prominent Vendors in the market are: Abel, BFDX, Cobra Electronics, Kirisun Communications, Midland Radio, Shenzhen HQT Science and Technology, Uniden, and Wintec.
A walkie talkie, also called a handheld transceiver (HT), may be described as a portable and handheld two-way radio transceiver. A walkie talkie works on simplex communication and uses inbuilt transmitters to send and receive radio signals to communicate and hence does not require a separate network tower. Walkie talkies are commonly used in settings where portable radio communications are necessary such as public safety, business, outdoor recreation, and military. Devices are available at various price points, ranging from inexpensive analog units sold as toys to ruggedized analog and digital units, which are waterproof or intrinsically safe, for use in boats or heavy industries.
Further, the report states that one of the major factors hindering the growth of this market is Competition from smartphones. The technological superiority of smartphones is posing a major challenge to walkie talkies. This technology has a point-to-point approach. During communication, the transmitter and receiver connect directly with the receiver and transmitter of another walkie talkie through some particular frequency not used for commercial purposes.
This report, Global Walkie Talkie Market 2017-2021, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

Newcastle Assistant Manager John Carver is participating fully in the huge Newcastle recruitment drive for the summer, which is already well under way.
John Carver – very involved with the scouting missions
The Newcastle scouts, along with Alan Pardew and John Carver will be out again next weekend, which is an FA Cup weekend, to watch some of Newcastle’s top targets across Europe.
Of course Alan will be keeping close to his chest who the real targets are this summer, and we’ll no doubt be linked with many many players this summer – but what’s new?
And it’s likely to be even more than usual because the gossip press knows Newcastle have that £35M available from the Andy Carroll sale.
John Carver told the Evening Chronicle today:
“Ideally, you would love to be playing to keep some momentum.” “But when the break came up last time and we knew we were out the cup it was an ideal opportunity for us to go out and watch games.”
“Some were in this country and some were abroad, without going into too much detail or give anything away.” “It’s good for us to get out there and look at some of our targets.”
“You watch different teams and different systems, how teams play and how they handle it.” “There is no pressure on you, you’re just watching players, so it is enjoyable.” “But the tactical side of it is also interesting. It’s a good learning process.”
It promises to be one of the most exciting summers for Newcastle fans for a quite a while, as the squad already looks more than good enough to hold its own in the Premier League this season.
We did take the opportunity to watch Gervinho play last Sunday for Lille against Lyon on TV in the 1-1 draw, and he looked very fast and quite dangerous, and can play on either wing, and he has already scored 11 goals this season for Lille.
The 23 year-old Ivory Coast International is averaging around one goal every two games for the French side, and reports today suggest that Aston Villa and Gerard Houllier are very keen on the player at around £15M.
But his contract at Lille runs out in 18 months time, so we’d be surprised if he will cost that much, and 10M was a previous figure mentioned.
But it does seem that Alan Pardew wants to bring some players with some speed into the side – and that would be another dimension to Newcastle’s play next season.

Heidi is a wife and mother of two, living in Lincoln, Nebraska. She has been cooking and writing recipes since she was eleven. Her recipes are influenced by: growing up in Nebraska with East Coast roots, living in Santa Monica for six years as a poor newlywed, her English and Norwegian grandmothers as well as seasonal foods.
Food should not be feared, cooking isn't scary. Eating is the simplist pleasure and a respite from daily life. Be flexible, (Flexitarian) limit meat and gluten to special indulgences. Healthy choices are always satisfying and choosing local, in-season foods are prioritized over niche-ingredients or meats that have a high-carbon footprint. However, indulgence every once in a while maintains the old adage of moderation; do the best you can with what you can find easily and also splurge every once in a while-both in eating and cooking.

Report - River should meander freely
WASHINGTON -- The Missouri River should meander freely along some stretches, returning to the conditions that existed before dams and channels created barge traffic routes, the National Research Council said Wednesday.
A more natural flow might entail an end to navigation along portions that are open to towboat traffic, but entire species of birds and fish may disappear without it, the council said.
Dams and channels have straightened the river's loops and meanders over the years, providing flood control and allowing navigation but stopping nearly all of the sediment flow responsible for the nickname "Big Muddy." The Missouri flows 2,341 miles through one-sixth of the country, from Three Forks, Mont., to St. Louis.
Not only did the council's findings hearten environmentalists seeking the changes, they satisfied a recreation and tourism industry that earns tens of millions of dollars from boating and fishing on upriver lakes that would keep more of the river's water in the busy summer season.
Besides benefits to ecology, the economic benefits alone "could justify reforming dam operations to create a spring rise and low summer flows," said Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, a Democrat from South Dakota.
The issue is the subject of bitter dispute between upriver and downriver communities and divides otherwise like-minded lawmakers, such as Daschle and House Democratic Leader Dick Gephardt of Missouri.
The recreation industry insists it contributes millions of dollars more to the economy than does navigation, estimated at $87 million versus $7 million. The council agreed.

FAQ: The Deadly Ebola Virus
Concerns were raised after an Ebola-infected man from Liberia flew to the Nigerian capital of Lagos, only to die on July 25, soon after arriving. He was identified in media reports as Patrick Sawyer, 40, a naturalized U.S. citizen making his way home to Minnesota.
But most flights between West Africa and the U.S. require one or more stops in other countries, making it unlikely a sick person could travel the entire distance, Marty Cetron, director for Global Migration and Quarantine at the CDC, said on July 28.
The CDC says Ebola poses little risk to the general U.S. population.
“We are confident that we will not have significant spread of Ebola, even if we were to have a patient with Ebola here,” Frieden told reporters July 31. “We work actively to educate American health care workers on how to isolate patients and how to protect themselves against infection. In fact, any advanced hospital in the U.S., any hospital with an intensive care unit, has the capacity to isolate patients. There is nothing particularly special about the isolation of an Ebola patient other than it’s really important to do it right.”
“Because it’s not airborne, it would take very close contact with someone who is at an advanced stage of illness to become infected,” Thomas Geisbert tells HealthDay.
One of the five Ebola virus strains caused an outbreak in laboratory monkeys in Reston, VA, outside Washington, DC, in 1989. People who were exposed to that strain of Ebola virus did not get sick. But they developed antibodies to it.

I had missed this, but several readers have alerted me to the fact that Jake Fox of the Baltimore Orioles was excoriated by both the opposing manager — Jim Leyland — and his own manager following what they perceived to be a clear violation of one of baseball’s many, many unwritten rules the other day:
The Orioles had runners on second and third and no outs in the eighth inning today when Fox came to the plate against Tigers minor leaguer Chance Ruffin. The most important aspect of this story is the score was 13-3 at the time, and both teams had subbed out most of their regulars. Ruffin started the at-bat with three straight balls, but Fox decided to take a rip at a 3-0 pitch in a clear take situation.
Taking that 3-0 rip in a blowout got both Leyland and Buck Showalter barking at Fox for not playing the game the right way and all of that rebop.
For what it’s worth, I think ‘Duk at Big League Stew nailed it in his post yesterday when he noted how — no matter what you think of Fox’s act on its own terms — it’s rather silly to get worked up about this sort of thing in a spring training game where the last thing anyone usually thinks about is competitive integrity. And even if you should care about competitive integrity in such a game, it’s worth noting that the the Tigers staged a bit of a comeback in this one, with the score ending up 14-9.
But really: if pitchers are allowed to “work on stuff” in spring training games, why can’t hitters? There will be a time this year when Fox gets a green-light 3-0. Is he not entitled to practice up on his from-the-heels swings?
Fortune Magazine has put out a list of The World’s Greatest Leaders. Not the greatest business leaders, not the greatest leaders in a given industry, but the Greatest Leaders, full stop. The greatest according to Fortune: The Cubs’ Theo Epstein.
For some context, Pope Francis was third. Angela Merkel was 10th. Lebron James was the next greatest sports leader, ranked 11th. Take Fortune’s methodology with a grain of salt, however, given that it has John McCain above Merkel — what, exactly, does he lead now? — and Samantha Bee in the top 20.
So what makes Theo the world’s best leader according to Fortune?
The Cubs owe their success to a five-year rebuilding program that featured a concatenation of different leadership styles. The team thrived under the affable patience of owner Tom Ricketts, and, later, under the innovative eccentricity of manager Joe Maddon. But most important of all was the evolution of the club’s president for baseball operations, Theo Epstein, the wunderkind executive who realized he would need to grow as a leader in order to replicate in Chicago the success he’d had with the Boston Red Sox.
I don’t want to take anything away from what Theo has done — he’s a Hall of Fame executive already in my view — but I feel like maybe one needs to adjust for the fact that this is a baseball team we’re talking about. They’re the whole world to us and their brands are nationally and even world famous, but as an organization, sports teams are rather small. There are guys who run reasonably-sized HVAC companies with more employees than a baseball team and they don’t get the benefit of an antitrust exemption and a rule which allows them to get their pick of the best new employees if they had a bad year the year before.
Really, not trying to throw shade here, just thinking that being the spiritual father for 1.2 billion Catholics or running a foundation that serves 55 million needy children — like the woman who comes in at number 14 — is a bit of a tougher trick.
But this will make a great framed magazine article on Theo’s wall in Wrigley Field.
United States starter Marcus Stroman was named Most Valuable Player of the World Baseball Classic after helping lead the U.S. to its first ever WBC title on Wednesday night in an 8-0 victory over Puerto Rico. Stroman flirted with a no-hitter through six innings, but gave up a double to lead off the seventh before being relieved by Sam Dyson.
Stroman also pitched 4 2/3 scoreless innings against the Dominican Republic in Pool C play on March 11. He struggled in Pool F play against Puerto Rico last Friday, surrendering four runs in 4 2/3 innings.
The WBC MVP award understandably goes to a player of the winning team. However, Wladimir Balentien of the Netherlands deserves special mention. In 26 at-bats during the WBC, he hit a double and had a WBC-high four home runs, 12 RBI, and 12 runs scored while putting up a .615/.677/.1.115 batting line. That’s MVP-esque as far as this tournament is concerned.


Luisa Elena Castillo had always said she would never get a tattoo because she didn’t want to endure the pain. But when her brother Miguel was shot dead in May during protests in Venezuela against President Nicolás Maduro’s government, she had his name tattooed on her ribs.
Luisa Elena, 33, even picked the most painful spot – her ribs. That was where a lethal projectile entered her brother's body and tore into his heart. Miguel Castillo’s name is now etched into her skin along with two angels and a baseball, because that was his favorite sport.
Dozens of other young Venezuelans have lost their lives on the streets since early April, the beginning of the revolt against Maduro, who they say is destroying democracy in the oil-rich country. With the death toll nearing 100 in the economic and political crisis, “martyr” shrines have begun to appear all around Caracas, often with a portrait of the victim painted on a wall and vows to keep up the fight against the Maduro government.
For Neomar Lander, who was just 17 when he was assassinated June 7, the shrine is on an underpass on Libertador Avenue where he died. His friends, family members and opposition supporters now call the spot "Neomar Lander Tunnel." A member of the National Guard (GNB) shot Neomar from about 30 feet away, blowing his chest wide open, the terrible moment captured on video by witnesses.
“He was always at the front line, engaging the National Guard," his father, Neomar Lander, Sr., said last week as he showed a reporter videos of his son attacking security force members and even their armored vehicles. In one of the videos, Neomar, Jr., is setting a GNB vehicle on fire with a Molotov cocktail.
His mother, Zugeimar Armas, defended her son’s actions. “On the street, you see so many ugly things, and when they go after you, your instinct tells you to fight back,” she said.
The couple said Neomar's 12-year-old sister, Paola, was one of the key reasons he risked his life on the streets of Caracas. “He wanted a better future for his little sister,” Armas said, describing her son as a happy, extroverted and sensitive boy.
But now it is the father who has turned into a rebel. Like his son, he fights the security forces, throwing stones and Molotov cocktails at them, carrying on his son's fight.
As he describes his actions, his wife shoots him a worried look and whispers, "He does whatever he wants."
Though grief-stricken, Armas, 35, said she remains convinced that the resistance must continue.
Others who have lost loved ones recently also have found ways to continue their battle against the Maduro regime. Rosa Orozco put together a civic organization called Justicia, Encuentro y Perdon that demands justice for the victims. Rosa also lost a child — her 23-year-old daughter, Geraldine. GNB members shot her in February of 2014 during the first wave of anti-government protests against Maduro's rule.
Rosa Orozco also has a combative side. “They [GNB] made a mistake by killing my daughter but they were also wrong about the mother. I will never be silent,” she said.
She pulled out photos of her daughter. The first depicted a beautiful girl with a radiant smile, filled with vitality. The other photo, after her death, showed the young woman’s bloody and disfigured face, her left eye concealed by bruises, blood and swelling.
Orozco’s daughter was shot three times, killed by GNB members in cold blood, according to her mother. She said they shot the 23-year-old in the back as she was running away from approaching GNB troops, then in the face, destroying her left eye and most of her brain. The third bullet, Orozco said, came as Geraldine lay dying and a GNB soldier got off his motorcycle and shot her in the chest. Two of the assassins were recently sent to prison for 30 and 16 years, respectively, for causing the death.
Looking back, Orozco talks about a “bad gut feeling” the day her daughter was killed. It's a feeling shared by Neomar’s parents. On the day their child was killed, President Maduro warned that that the protest would be the last one. “It turns out it was the last protest for our son,” Armas said.
Neomar Jr.'s parents have little hope for bringing justice to the murderers. “The best justice would be the fall of this government,” Armas said.
The government has framed the conflict as a war against the revolution launched by "the right wing" opposition but Orozco dismisses that assertion, saying there is no evidence of that. She fears that more families will lose their sons and daughters as the conflict continues. Her organization, she said, is ready to offer such families legal help and hope that they can find comfort in each other's company.
"Rosa helped me so much to heal," said Neomar Lander, Sr., though he struggles with the loss of his son.
The heartbreak for Castillos, Landers and other families remains fresh. Luisa Elena Castillo remembered imploring her brother, Miguel, to skip the protests, fearing the worst. “He told me that Virgin of the Valley will bring him home safe,” she recalled, referring to the saint venerated in Venezuela.
“Mama, Venezuela cannot wait for you,” was the last thing Orozco heard from her daughter, Geraldine, alluding to the fight for a free country shared by many of the youth.
And while their families continue to resist the government as a way to deal with their loss and honor their children, it can be hard to move on.
Luisa Elena Castillo keeps the baseball jersey Miguel once wore for his games. When he was alive, she would reproach him for its sweaty odor. Now she presses the jersey against her face as a way to remember.

fireworks above the ferns
rain on rose petals
flush of memory
As I stood there in the center of the room, one of the jays landed in a feeder. Usually I shoo them off because they're too big for the feeders, and they eat too much. But I hadn't seen a jay here for awhile, so decided to let it eat in peace. Their blue plumage (which isn't really blue, but that's another story) looks so pretty in contrast with the white snow.
Soon the second jay passed overhead, moving from a nearby tree to the edge of the roof over my feeders. But instead of another jay at a feeder, a Red-Bellied Woodpecker suddenly appeared.

Should I expect all my dreams
to become as real
as this visiting woodpecker?
Despite today's raw edge, there are some signs of spring out there. Sheltered by a south-facing wall at the Camden Public Library, clusters of crocus bloom cheerily, always the first flowers I see each year. Around the neighborhood, milk jugs hang from maple trees, collecting sap; this is Maine Maple Sunday, after all. The Canadian robins have mostly moved northward and incoming migrant robins are beginning to feed on half-frozen lawns--a shift from their winter diet of fruits and berries. I spotted some red-winged blackbirds in Lincolnville along Frohock Brook. Many trilling juncos create music in the bare trees around our house. A tom turkey, surrounded by a heedless harem, was displaying in the back yard a few days ago. And Canada geese are beginning to return to the Megunticook River, even as winter ducks--goldeneyes, buffleheads--linger before heading up to Hudson Bay and points north. I've even noticed that some of my lilies are starting to poke tender green shoots through the veneer of dead leaves and road grit plastered across the front lawn (along with remnant snow banks that will probably linger till the next Ice Age). We're on the cusp of the season.
Goodbye and hello:
birds of winter, birds of spring
Leaves skitter like birds,
birds scatter like leaves. Two black
ravens ride the wind.
Later in the day a flock of a dozen or more juncos passed through, scuttling in the heaps of fallen leaves, trilling in the pines. Juncos are often accompanied by sparrows, but all I had were my lousy office binoculars, so I couldn't pick out anything but a junco in the bunch. These pert grey and white birds with pink bills will also appear intermittently throughout the winter. My grandmother used to call them "snowbirds."
A birder friend in southern Maine reported literally thousands of cormorants migrating off Biddeford Pool and Eastern Point this morning, including one single flock of 2,500 to 3,000 birds! Cormorants fly in big vees like geese, although often in much more dramatic numbers and more quietly--endless skeins of birds flapping their wings with purpose.
These crowds of feeding, flying creatures moving overhead or in the underbrush add to the overall restless and unsettled mood of this season of transitions. I find myself jumping out of my office chair, useless binoculars in hand, walking from window to window and then outside, wanting to follow the birds. Not far--just enough to get a sense of where they're going. Although as darkness closes in so early now and a chilly fog shrouds the mountaintop, heading south to warmer climes appeals to me more and more. I'm not prepared for winter.
Restless birds fly south
ahead of snow. How I long
to grow wings, follow.
The first bird is a junco that has been coming to a feeder in Freedom for most of December. Normally, a junco is an overall slate-grey bird with a white belly. This junco, photographed on a very snowy feeder against snow-covered bushes, is strikingly white, with only a thin dark edge to its wings, dark eyes, and a junco's typical pink legs and bill. This beautiful bird looks as if it's been crafted from the surrounding drifts and brought to life--Frosty the Snowbird. I wonder if it's aware how well it blends in with the snow, if it has learned how to make itself invisible.
This morning a birder in southern Maine posted a photo of a leucistic red-tailed hawk that has apparently been regularly seen in Eliot for the past four years in the neighborhood of the Marshwood Middle School. The photographer has seen the bird with his non-white mate. (With most hawks, the females are larger, hence the assumption that the smaller, white bird is male. Apparently his freakish color didn't render him unattractive to at least one other of his kind.) The photo shows a white hawk flying against a background of bare trees. Except for his dark eye and bill, the hawk truly looks like a ghost bird, or the surreal visitation of some forest angel.
Two unusual white birds during these snowy days of winter, two pale muses:
White bird in winter--
blank as the snow-covered field
and as beautiful.

In the year 2007, HarperCollins Publishers India brought out a 100-page hardback collection of poetry, titled The Disappearances. The book was described as "grave and witty, classical and contemporary", bringing together the best of Vijay Seshadri's poetry, drawn from The Long Meadow (2004) and Wild Kingdom (1996). "The award-winning poet, described as 'a writer of subtle, elastic and unblinking intelligence', is being published in India for the first time," said Harper Collins.
As happens with many books of poetry, the volume — almost uncannily true to its name — disappeared without a trace. In the words of Anita Nair, Bangalore-based best-selling novelist and poet, "In 2007, that brilliant editor-publisher Karthika VK of HarperCollins India published him and the book was almost completely ignored by literary editors". Though Seshadri was building a formidable reputation in the United States, where he had lived since the age of five, back home in the country of his birth, few people seemed to know who he was, or care — even though his work had also been published in major anthologies such as Jeet Thayil's The Bloodaxe Book of Contemporary Indian Poets (2008) and Sudeep Sen's The HarperCollins Book of English Poetry (2012).
All that changed last Monday, when Vijay Seshadri won the prestigious 2014 Pulitzer Prize for poetry. Suddenly, it wasn't just the literary circles that were abuzz; his victory was seen as a matter of pride for Indians everywhere. "Of all the winners of the Pulitzer Prizes announced on Monday, perhaps the most unexpected was the poetry collection 3 Sections by Vijay Seshadri, which largely passed under the critical radar," said one April 15 report.
While many people were asking fundamental questions — 'Who is Vijay Seshadri? Where did he come from out of the blue?' — veteran poet Keki Daruwalla, who has ten collections of poetry and a novel to his name, immediately rang up Karthika VK, chief editor of HarperCollins Publishers India, to congratulate her for being among the first to recognise his talent. "This is turning out to be a very good period for Indian poetry in English," Daruwalla said to this writer afterwards, adding that he had been following Seshadri's work in the best of American publications such as Poetry Chicago in recent times.
"It's a wonderful surprise to suddenly have a Pulitzer Prize-winning author on the list," says Karthika VK. "Nandita Agarwal, who was at that time my colleague at Harper, introduced me to his work and commissioned the book. We acquired the rights from Graywolf, Vijay's publishers in the USA, and it was only the second book we published in our fledgling poetry list. It did get reviewed well at the time but we have never met him or had direct interaction with him, it has been through Graywolf." Karthika believes that Seshadri's poetry, especially the poem
The Disappearances, which became the title of the Harper edition, "captures the urban ethos, the American experience of contemporaneity, with such evocative warmth that it gathers you into itself in that indefinably 'universal' way, even reading him here in India."
So who is Vijay Seshadri? By now, post the Pulitzer, the facts of his life are fairly well-known: Seshadri was born in 1954, in Bangalore, but moved to the United States at the age of five, where he grew up in Columbus, Ohio. Sen's anthology in 2012 describes him as teaching poetry and as director of the graduate non-fiction writing programme at Sarah Lawrence College. Among the many accolades Seshadri has garnered over a steady writing career, he was winner of the Guggenheim prize in 2004 and the James Laughlin Award in 2003 from the Academy of American Poets, and has been recognised as a significant voice in American poetry for nearly two decades (though not until now, as an Indian one, it must be said!). Seshadri's academic career may be an illustrious one, but other occupations have also enriched his writing — including, as Thayil tells us in The Bloodaxe Anthology, a stint as a commercial fisherman in Oregon, as a biologist with the National Marine Fish Service, and as a copy editor with The New Yorker.
In the year 2004, Alice Quinn, poetry editor of The New Yorker interviewed Seshadri. His poem, The Disappearances, had been published three years earlier, on the back page of The New Yorker, in the aftermath of the tragedy of September 11, 2001. He had actually written it two months before the attack, while recalling the Kennedy assassination, which had impacted him profoundly as a child; when 9/11 occurred, the poem seemed eerily appropriate.
The wheels of the upside-down tricycle are spinning.
The swings are empty but swinging.
And the shadow is still there, and there is the object that made it, riding the proximate atmosphere, oblong and illustrious above the dispeopled bedroom community, venting the memories of those it took,
their corrosive human element…
Your friend's mother is saying,
Hush, children! Don't you understand history is being made?
You do, and you still do. Made and made again…
Many would say that Seshadri made history too, when he won the Pulitzer Prize last Monday. But, while all of us collectively celebrate the success of a poet we now consider our own, it is worthwhile to spare a thought for a question that Anita Nair asks: "Does it take an American prize for us to appreciate and accept talent? Don't we have the acumen to judge for ourselves what constitutes literary merit?"
Poet and founding editor of Drunken Boat
Well I first met Vijay in the late 90's when I was living in New York. I was put in touch with him when Tina Chang and I began editing a collection to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Asian American Writers Workshop. He was always kind, serious but with a spritely wit glimmering underneath, and he wrote me a blurb for my first book that I will always treasure.
A quintessential Vijay moment for me was just recently at the AWP panel where we were discussing the importance of global literature and the interconnectedness of the historical moment. He shared an anecdote about how his poem The Disappearances which he has become famously associated with because it was on the back page of The New Yorker after 9/11 was actually about the assassination of President Kennedy. As he wrote in an interview "the poem moves towards a historical cataclysm and then moves beyond it. It takes in loss and it makes the historical personal somehow." But he somehow managed to capture all our grief and loss during that tragic day.
But he wears his erudition so lightly than in disagreeing with a fellow panelist, he said, "well, I wouldn't be so rebarbative but..." That utterance of "rebarbative" has stuck with me as the perfect word that only he could utter without anyone blinking an eye.
Poet and editor The HarperCollins Book of English Poetry
I first met Vijay Seshadri for a drink in the late 1980s/early 90s in a Manhattan hotel when I lived and worked there. I found him very gentle-natured and remember he took me to meet the then poetry editor of The New Yorker, Alice Quinn.
Vijay is wholly an American poet. His poems use a very contemporary idiom that is steeped in popular culture, using nature in an unsentimental but vivid way.
He had moved to the USA at age of five and his relationship with India is conveyed both in its sense of the geographical distance from the country, as well as in the couched unobvious display of it: "I said Rajasthan, she said Sahara, / but we knew beyond question / it was desert we were after" (The Lump); or obliquely "when Stalin's daughter / fled to Delhi" ('Visiting Russia').
I have published his work in various journals I have edited, as well as in the recent anthology, The HarperCollins Book of English Poetry.


Fire officials say there is a likely chance of dense smoke or a super-fog event Wednesday evening into Thursday morning south of the Juniper Road fire potentially impacting I-40, Hwy 17 and other roads in the fire area.
Fire officials say driving in these conditions is extremely dangerous and should be avoided. If you find yourself in these conditions, experts say get as far off the road as possible and remain in your vehicle with your lights and emergency flashers on. Road closures are possible. Officials will monitor conditions continually to assess risks to public safety.
An approximate 8,000 acre burnout operation was conducted Tuesday in the Holly Shelter Game Lands East on the south side of the fire, north and east of New Road. The burnout operation successfully burned the fuels between the fire and New Road, improving the ability of firefighters to contain the fire and protect homes along Hwy 17 when winds shift and come out of the north, northwest.
The fire is approximately 30,593 acres with 68% containment. The fire is burning in the Holly Shelter Game Lands, 8 miles North of Topsail and was reported June 19th after it was started from a lightning strike.

Derwick Associates, an energy company based in Venezuela, is looking to expand its business opportunities overseas. Directors from the company met with the Spanish Association of the Electrical Industry to discuss the company's potential options.
Caracas, Venezuela (PRWEB) January 09, 2014
Derwick Associates is looking to bring its unique brand of experience to Spain.
The energy company has announced that it will be attempting to further expand their reach by investigating opportunities for investment overseas.
A delegation from Derwick Associates, including directors Leopoldo Alejandro Betancourt López, Pedro Trebbau López, Edgard Romero Lazo and Francisco Convit Guruceaga met with the president of the Spanish Association of the Electrical Industry with the hope that they can bring their successful business to Spain.
According to Leopoldo Alejandro Betancourt Lopez, the meeting with the Spanish Association went well. “We liked what we saw from the electrical association and we are definitely interested in further exploring our opportunities overseas,” said Lopez. “We feel like our experience in Venezuela has made us uniquely qualified for this opportunity to expand.”
Derwick Associates does indeed have a unique experience record, as the company was awarded numerous power station contracts during the Venezuelan energy crisis. In a compressed amount of time, Derwick was able to complete the contracts, enabling a significant increase in the generating capacity in a number of cities, most notably Caracas.
The energy shortages in Venezuela are also part of the reason for Derwick's rapid growth and development. One of the more intriguing aspects of the company has been its ability to handle the rapid expansion without suffering through the growing pains emerging companies traditionally experience.
“Our situation with our company in Venezuela has been unique,” said Pedro Trebbau Lopez. “We were put in a fairly unusual situation that carried a lot of risk, and not only we were able to handle it, we were able to come out very successfully. While we are proud of what we have already accomplished, we are still looking to grow. We feel that Spain can offer us a number of great opportunities, and we certainly intend to explore all of the opportunities presented to us.”

Health-based regulations for indoor sound pressure level (SPL) within 20–200 Hz presuppose that the planners of industrial sites shall estimate the indoor SPL of environmental noise in nearby dwellings. However, data about typical façade sound insulation is not available in Finland. The aim of the study was to determine façade sound insulation of typical Finnish residential houses. Level difference between outdoor and indoor sound pressure level was measured in 1/3-octave bands 5–5000 Hz using special loudspeakers as sound sources. The measurements were made for 26 façades in 13 different houses. The apparent sound reduction index for the façades was determined according to ISO 16283-3 in 50–5000 Hz. The weighted apparent sound reduction indices, R´w + Ctr (ISO 717-1), varied between 31 and 51 dB. The level differences were from 3 to 40 dB within 20–200 Hz, and from -3 to 30 dB within 5–16 Hz. The results depended strongly on frequency, building materials, window area, and measurement positions. The 84% percentile value of the 26 measured level differences can be used to estimate the indoor SPL caused by environmental noise which is usually determined outdoors by sound propagation models.

As the summer heat lingers away and is replaced by the autumn breeze, I know, for certain, that a season in my life is changing too. Although it is much more subtle, I can absolutely feel a change in my personality; a change peppered with motivation and calmness. I've learned that patience is one of my best friends and that with it I will reach my destination with most of my sanity. Perhaps the entire world takes a big, deep breath upon Fall's arrival, because I just feel calm.
Awhile back, when I stopped updating my blog, I began keeping a list; a bucket list. This list was composed of short term goals and hopes. On the list was to make an appearance on a television show or movie; even if I just walked through a scene. I got myself involved with an agency that books that exact type of work. I am so excited to begin my life adventure in film.
On my list, I also included singing at a major sports game. I excitedly will be auditioning to sing "God Bless America" at a Los Angeles King's game! High hopes, but no expectations, of course!
For those of you who are my blogging community, I only find it fair to update you on my journey; since you all were part of it in the beginning.
I am in my new apartment, about a mile away from Downtown Los Angeles. It is a nice vintage home with a deck overlooking Hollywood.
I am still working for Club Nokia at LA Live, except now I work in the VIP section. I still stand in an elevator, but I am grateful. The newest update in my employment record is one that I am so excited about. I finally found a job that allows me to work as an entertainer. I am a proud member of the Los Angeles King's Ice Crew. My team and I are responsible for making sure that the fans have the most stellar time possible at all of the games. I've gotten so many great experiences so far!
I am working with a producer on a demo right now. Pursuing music is my passion and I love every minute of the journey. I know, deep down in my soul, that music is my destiny. I am working towards getting something for you all to listen to. I truly hope you enjoy it.
Although I am in a different place, a different mind set and a new season...I am still Nick James, the writer you all grew to know. I feel sorry that I fell so far out of the loop, but affording my life has taken up so much time. I am going to work my hardest to get back in the community. PLEASE let me know how you all are doing.

It’s 2:30 a.m., raging floodwaters are dragging away cars outside your home and the phone lines are dead – so who do you call?
If you’re ex-Deputy Mayor Tony Coles, who found himself in such a nightmare this past weekend in the French town of Hendaye, try City Hall.
As in New York, not Paris. Coles made the lifesaving phone call to quick-thinking New York officials before dawn Monday, after deadly floods trapped him, his wife, young kids and a friend’s family on top of their rented, three-story vacation home.
At first, Coles desperately tried to reach local authorities with his global cell phone.
When he couldn’t get through, Coles fell back on a number that had served him well before: the NYPD night desk.
Coles asked the cops to wake up an old pal, Fire Commissioner Nicholas Scoppetta, who then called FDNY Chief of Operations Salvatore Cassano.
Cassano phoned Stephan Hittmann, the FDNY’s director of fire and life safety, who is fluent in French. Hittmann also knows Gilles DeBouttier, head of the Paris fire department.
Hittmann called DeBouttier. DeBouttier called the French interior minister. Meanwhile, Hittmann phoned Coles.
“He was calm but anxious,” Hittmann recalled. “The water was rising.”
Divers eventually rescued the party by boat.

06 Nov Presenting “Oh Là Là Paname” for adidas Skateboarding
“Oh Là Là Paname” is the most recent project from adidas Skateboarding and its European team. Following skater superstars Magnus Bordewick, Heitor Da Silva, Lucas Puig and Gustav Tønnesen through the streets of Paris, the music on the video had to transmit both the raw energy and the savoir-faire of the French capital.
With a short cinematic instrumental opening and a consistently catchy baile funk rhythm, the central track carries on the action with the nonchalant disco of Naples duo Nu Guinea and their club banger ‘Stann Fore’. Watch the whole video below and enjoy the style and natural talent on display from both the skaters and the musicians!
