August 23 Morning News
August 22, 2012, Morning News
State Treasurer Young Boozer says Alabama’s prepaid college tuition plan will pay full tuition for the fall semester while it waits for a court to rule on the legality of making reduced payments. Alabama’s plan currently has more than 36,000 participants, and more than 19,000 of them are eligible to attend college this fall. The financially troubled program reached a settlement with most participants in 2010 to pay tuition in future years at fall 2010 rates to keep the program afloat. The Alabama Supreme Court struck down that settlement, saying state law didn’t permit reduced payments. The Legislature changed the law in May, and now a judge is considering whether the change can be applied retroactively.
A lawyer representing the University of Alabama fan accused of poisoning Auburn University’s oak trees wants to leave the case before his client stands trial. Birmingham Attorney Louis Willie III filed a request saying he was asked to represent Harvey Updyke for free, yet he’s had to travel to meetings on the case for months and it’s a burden. He says he needs to step aside given the uncertainty over Updyke’s trial date in Opelika. Willie says another lawyer who’s acting as the lead defense attorney can represent Updyke without problem.
A former State senator is suing in state court in Montgomery claiming that legislators violated the Alabama Constitution earlier this year by passing a 2013 budget that was not balanced. The 2013 General Fund budget relies on a transfer of approximately $467 million from the Alabama Trust Fund into state coffers over the next three years. Voters must approve the transfer in a constitutional amendment on the ballot September 18. If the amendment is rejected, the state budget would have to be cut significantly. The lawsuit, filed Tuesday by former state Senator John Rice, names Governor Robert Bentley, Finance Director Marquita Davis and Comptroller Thomas White as defendants. Rice wants the court to block use of General Fund money.
Jefferson County Circuit Judge Robert Vance Jr. is the only Democrat to sign up to run for chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court. The deadline to sign up was yesterday. The Democratic Party began seeking a new candidate after a party committee disqualified the original Democratic nominee, Pelham attorney Harry Lyon. Lyon says he plans to vote for Republican nominee Roy Moore as a matter of principle. A write-in candidate for chief justice, Mobile attorney Melinda Lee Maddox, says she’s dropping her campaign and supporting Vance.
Alabama has a new state archivist. After a nationwide search, the board of trustees elected Steve Murray to be the director of the Alabama Department of Archives and History. Murray has been assistant director of the department for six years.
Governor Robert Bentley has set a special election schedule to fill the seat of Republican Representative Elwyn Thomas of Oneonta before the Legislature’s next regular session. Last week, Bentley selected Thomas to become executive director of the Alabama Manufactured Housing Commission effective September 1st. Candidates for the District 34 seat have until September 7 to qualify with their parties. A primary election will be October 23 and the general election will be January 29th, just days before the legislature’s next regular session begins. House District 34 covers much of Blount County and part of northern Jefferson County.

The California State Fair is planning to put Hollywood front and center this summer. Organizers have settled on a number of featured attractions that will focus on Hollywood and how modern day movies and entertainment come to life. There will also be numerous casting calls, celebrity seminars and stunt shows at the fair grounds. The fair is following in the footsteps of other West Coast events, that have embraced Hollywood culture and movies, including the recently concluded San Diego Comic-Con.
However, the fair is taking things a step further by offering actual casting calls, which could be of value to industry pros, as well as to fans.
This is in addition to standard programming, including a concert series featuring performances by Smash Mouth and Chicago.
“Hollywood is an integral part of California’s culture and economy. Every industry and culture in the State has played a role in making Hollywood what it is today,” said Norb Bartosik, State Fair CEO. “Our goal is to celebrate those connections and bring some of the Hollywood energy, excitement and diversity to Cal Expo, while still maintaining our time honored State Fair traditions and customs.”
The following ar a few of the Hollywood-themed exhibits and attractions that fairgoers can expect to see at Big Fun Studios from August 15 through Labor Day.
- Going Hollywood Exhibit – This exhibit will take fairgoers on a journey through the movie-making process beginning with the development of a story and ending with movie production. Fans can see a casting call, get autographs from visiting celebrities and take pictures with costumed characters. A wide variety of film props and actual wardrobe items from different movie genres including; westerns, alien invasions, monster movies, romance and kid’s flicks will provide something for fans of all ages.
The center of the exhibit will be the Sound Stage Nine, an interactive replica of a sound stage complete with green screen technology, professional stunts, special effects and exclusive Q & A sessions with influential members of the Hollywood community.
- Hollywood Backlot – A life-sized outdoor backlot similar to the sets and studios of Los Angeles. You be the star. Walk the Red Carpet, stroll down the streets of New York or journey back to the Wild West.
- Sound Effects Stage Show – An interactive stage performance showing what happens behind the scenes, and lets audience members play a role.
- Sea Lion Encounters Live Show -Celebrity animals that have been on the big screen. They’re coming to the State Fair with a water stunt show and an educational program.
- Hollywood High Dive Stunt Show – High flying stunt divers celebrate Hollywood through the ages with a high energy dive show.
- Stars of the Peking Acrobats Live – Performers combine Chinese acrobatics with comedy, balancing feats and more.
- CSI Live – An interactive journey through the world of crime scene investigation.
- Casting Calls – The Fair is on the hunt for celebrity look-alikes to help bring Big Fun Studios to life every day. Plus, on Saturdays you could get discovered during Casting Calls.
- Red Carpet Fashion Exhibit – This exhibit will showcase actual red carpet fashions worn by celebrities attending major Hollywood events.
- Floriculture An Indy Adventure – A replica exhibit of the on location set from Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls.
There are also numerous returning and alternatively-themed exhibits to the fair this year as well, so alumni attendees probably shouldn’t feel left out in the cold.
Discount tickets to the 2008 California State Fair are on sale now at www.bigfun.org.

Or choose to buy from one of your favorite retailers:
Our generation stands on the brink of unprecedented opportunity and influence. Equipped with more than any generation before, we want to make a difference in the world. We want to count for something greater than ourselves. But sometimes it's not clear exactly how to turn our ideas and energy into reality. With the gap between the generations growing wider, it's easy to feel misunderstood, like the world's problems are being left for us to fix, and no one really believes our generation will succeed.
Thankfully, there are members of older generations who do care. They want us to do better than they have--to be better than they've been. And they have so much experience, wisdom, and help to offer us along the way.
In this book, Jonathan Catherman assures us that our influence matters and will continue to grow. With plenty of examples and clear application, he shows us how to prepare ourselves to accept any challenge by practicing how to:

Various health agencies from Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation to World Health Organization say that rising cases of Omicron are impacting large swaths of the population. While Omicron appears to be less deadly than the Delta variant, it is generally considered far more contagious. And the impact is being felt far and wide.
As cases rise, people call in sick to work and school. Businesses and schools are seeing record absenteeism as teachers, staff, students, and employees across the nation stay home to recover from the illness, isolate and quarantine, or care for family members.
What if you have to return to the office, or are an essential worker that cannot work from home? Public health experts recommend mitigating the spread of the virus by using "health and safety layers" This infographic, credited to Ian M. Mackay, a virologist at the University of Queensland, in Brisbane, provides a visual representation of various steps individuals and groups can take to address a mitigate the pandemic. (See Diagram Here)
The CDC has also recently recommended upgrading from cloth masks to well-fitting medical-grade N95 and KN95s. The good news about these face masks is that they tend to fit better than cloth masks, while making it easier to speak clearly and be understood.

The FDA is looking for companies to join a voluntary pilot program that encourages the use of radiation sterilization for medical devices instead of ethylene oxide (EtO).
The FDA is scheduled to publish details of the pilot program in the Federal Register tomorrow. The agency announced the program just days after the EPA proposed new rules to measure and reduce EtO emissions from chemical plants due to health risks. The EPA also said it plans to propose updated regulations for commercial sterilization facilities that emit EtO, which is used for around half of all medical device sterilization each year.
With medtech industry group AdvaMed warning that medical device EtO sterilization facilities are already at capacity and could choose to shut down if new regulations are too burdensome, the FDA’s latest move could give EtO alternatives a boost.
“This voluntary pilot is intended to help contract sterilizers and medical device manufacturers to make changes to or advance alternative ways to sterilize approved medical devices, including changing radiation sources, in a least burdensome regulatory approach,” the FDA said in announcing the program.
Related: How Phiex could revolutionize medical device sterilization
The FDA said the pilot will accept up to nine sterilization providers that sterilize single-use, PMA-approved devices using gamma radiation or EtO and intend to submit master files when making certain changes to sterilization sites, sterilization methods or other processes.
To be eligible, sterilization providers must be in good compliance standing with the FDA, have an approved gamma radiation or fixed-chamber EO sterilization process for the device in an existing PMA, and propose one of the following changes:
- A change from gamma radiation sterilization at a PMA-approved sterilization site to the same process at a different site;
- A change from gamma radiation sterilization at an existing PMA-approved sterilization site to X-ray or electron beam radiation sterilization at the same or different site;
- A change from a gamma radiation sterilization at an existing PMA-approved sterilization site to gamma radiation with a lower radiation dose at the same or different site;
- A change from fixed-chamber EO sterilization at an existing PMA-approved sterilization site to X-ray or electron beam radiation sterilization method at the same or different site
Like EtO, radiation sterilization can penetrate product packaging, but it’s less ideal for electronics and plastics. Gamma radiation is the most commonly used method of radiation sterilization for medical devices. Electron beam sterilization is growing because it’s faster and less expensive than X-ray and safer than gamma radiation, which uses radioactive material.
FAQ: What is electron beam sterilization?
A similar program launched in 2019 to reduce EtO emissions, the EtO Sterilization Master File Pilot Program for PMA holders, accepted five participants: Boston Scientific, Becton, Dickinson & Co., Medtronic, Oscor and Steris Corp.
“The sterilization of medical devices is a vital process to help prevent serious infections,” Dr. Jeff Shuren, director of the FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH), said in a statement. “CDRH remains committed to encouraging novel ways to sterilize medical devices while reducing adverse impacts on the environment and public health and to developing solutions that avert potential shortages of devices that the American public relies upon. We are continuously working to oversee sterilization methods for medical devices to ensure they are effective and used in amounts that are safe for the patients and health care professionals who use them.”

As far as déjà vu goes, its pretty spectacular.
Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton and her husband Prince William have just arrived at Westminster Abbey to mark the 60th anniversary of the Queen's Coronation their first public appearance together at the iconic landmark since they were married there just over two years ago.
And what a difference two years make.
With just one month to go until shes due to give birth to the couples first child, Kate looked relaxed and happy in a peach-colored summer dress by Jenny Packham and matching lightweight coat, accessorised with a veiled hat by one of her favourite milliners, Jane Taylor.
Plus, todays formal service has another star of note in attendance.
The iconic St Edward's Crown will rest on the High Altar during the ceremony, marking the first time it has left the Tower of London since it was used to crown the Queen during the 1953 coronation.

About one in four Americans supports reparations for slavery. There is a racial split on that question, with up to three in four African Americans–but only 15% of whites–in favor.
If you think that justice demands reparations, you should support them. You might not make reparations your main criterion for choosing candidates in a given political contest, because you might vote on other grounds, but you should endorse proposals that you believe are just.
Here I want to address a different issue. I’ll offer an explanation (not a justification or a critique) of the importance of reparations in the mentality of left-leaning Americans.
I think that many Americans on the left are torn between two political positions, each coherent on its own but in tension with the other:
1. A strong version of New Deal/Great Society liberalism and/or social democracy, in which the nation-state intervenes assertively in the economy to promote equity and environmental sustainability. This stance is compatible with enthusiastic support for voting and democratic processes. It requires a lot of trust in the state and a willingness to entrust state actors with the ability to, for example, investigate how much wealth (not just annual income) you have, which schools your kids will attend, and which health treatments will be paid for, given data about your body.
Martin Luther King, Jr., provides a classic statement of this view when he recalls the launch of the Great Society: “A few years ago there was a shining moment in that struggle. It seemed as if there was a real promise of hope for the poor — both black and white — through the poverty program. There were experiments, hopes, new beginnings.”
2. A deep suspicion of the United States government as white-supremacist, patriarchal, and colonialist: as a continuous entity that has played a leading role in genocide, enslavement, and apartheid, in part because those policies have sometimes been popular among the white majority of the country.
It’s debatable what positive program follows from the second position, but in practice, it can mean support for local initiatives, nonprofits, women- and minority-owned businesses, and autonomy at the neighborhood level. Malcolm X provides a classic text for this view:
The white man, the white man is too intelligent to let someone else come and gain control of the economy of his community. But you will let anybody come in and control the economy of your community, control the housing, control the education, control the jobs, control the businesses, under the pretext that you want to integrate.
… we haven’t had sense enough to set up stores and control the businesses of our community. … But the political and economic philosophy of black nationalism…the economic philosophy of black nationalism shows our people the importance of setting up these little stores, and developing them and expanding them into larger operations. Woolworth didn’t start out big like they are today; they started out with a dime store, and expanded, and expanded, and expanded until today they are all over the country and all over the world and they getting some of everybody’s money. …
So our people not only have to be reeducated to the importance of supporting black business, but the black man himself has to be made aware of the importance of going into business. And once you and I go into business, we own and operate at least the businesses in our community.
Note that this position is compatible with certain forms of libertarian thought but not with social democracy.
It is not embarrassing to be drawn to two incompatible views. The social world is complicated, and there are good reasons in favor of many positions. However, when you feel the pull of two incompatible ideas, a deciding factor becomes very important.
Reparations play that role for the American left. If the United States government were to pay reparations, that would tilt many left-leaning people from the second position to the first: from Malcolm to Martin, if those labels are helpful. The impact would be especially strong if Congress and the president decided to pay reparations of their own volition–not by grudgingly negotiating with a social movement–and if the payment were substantial.
The underlying theory here is similar to Homer-Dixon et al (2020). An ideology is a complex system that consists of numerous ideas with logical links among them. It cannot be described adequately by placing it on one left/right spectrum, nor even several such continua at once. It is not a point in logical space but a structure of ideas.
In complex systems, we frequently see multiple equilibria, and specific nodes have surprisingly large impact because of their location. A single node can tilt the system from one equilibrium to another.
My conjecture is that reparations plays such a role in the system of the ideology of the American left. Left-leaning people may not rate it as the most important issue. They may not even endorse it whole-heartedly. But it (perhaps uniquely) can tilt them from a libertarian equilibrium to a social-democratic equilibrium.
This is an empirical conjecture for which I do not have data. To test it, we would have to explore the epistemic network of left-leaning Americans, either by analyzing large bodies of text or by surveying individuals about their ideas and perceived connections among their ideas.

Historical Traveler Reviews Bonnie Castle Resort Alexandria Bay
My husband & I stayed at Bonnie Castle on Columbus Weekend. Our room was clean & well kept. The staff was terrific! The restaurant has the most wonderful food and the bar was fun. This is an older resort...some repairs should be made, but I think the price, the views, the food and the staff made it at steal! We will definitely stay there again.
Read reviews before you go....
I just return from a weeks stay at the Bonnie Castle. I read the review before I went and glad that I did. The room they gave us was not that clean and we could not open the air conditioner vent due to the age. I had mentioned this to the head of our group. He stated that we were to all be together and I should not have had that room. I went back and they gave me another room and acted like it was a hardship. The people across from me never got their ac working. This is a beautiful area...resort has many meanings to different people. This is an older area and does need some maintance. The food was excellent in the dining room. The pool and hot tub were okay. They have their own boat to go to Boldt Castle which was very nice. You can walk down to the shopping areas. A lot of the shops had closed down for the season but the ones left open are nice. Susan and her staff were very nice and helpful. I would go back again but make sure to check your room first.
Bonnie Castle area is prettier than the post cards and very relaxing.
I feel good !
Right from the start I was treated well. The courteous staff put us on the right foot starting with the reservations. The meals were delightful and the prices and portions were fair. I would do it again. Bill
We stayed at Bonnie Castle Resort last night. This is not a resort!!!
The rooms were terrible - filthy, no alarm clock. TV from the 70's - 19 inch if that. No PS or Nintendo or Movies available on the tv. Our room did have a vcr that they offered to rent movies to you for. We had water stains all over everything & dried on food on the "desk". Air Conditioner didn't work & couldn't open the windows because they had no screens. Kids enjoyed the indoor pool - would have been a great view if the windows ever got washed & you could see through them - the ones that were'nt broken & boarded up. Alex Bay is a great place - I've been there dozens of times and this is the only hotel in the area that I have not been 100% pleased with. Make the trip, just don't stay here.
Place needs repairs just to make it acceptable
The web site is totally misleading. The buildings and grounds are a disgrace. The owner should stick to fixing up the place instead of adding more properties. It is only a matter of time this place will fall apart
Choose another hotel at A Bay
This is not my first choice to stay in A Bay. The rooms are adequate at best. My sister-in-law was charged top dollar and when she entered the room there was scrambled eggs behind the door on the shag rug. The front desk was ambivalent.
I have rented a slip from them and this seems to be o.k....However be warned that you must bring your own towels if you utilize the shower.
Barely adequate for a very short stay..
Room accomodations are adequate. Brochure and website are totally misleading. This not a Resort Hotel by any stretch of the imagination. The property is shabby, we ate elsewhere as the dining room smelled. The pool is in the middle of the parking lot and poorly maintained. The gift shop is the size of a large closet.
We were in Alexandria Bay for a martial arts hall of fame banquet and tournament earlier this month and all of our party was to stay at the castle. After smelling the lobby and the uninformed staff we took the liberty of viewing our rooms. Oh my god I wish this was a "smell a review" It stunk so bad and was filthy. The pull out sofa had something vile squirted all over it and when I had called ahead to see if they would put an iron and ironing board in our room it turned out to be one of those table top ones that had a cover on it that was all shreaded. One of our other party said the room he was shown had a huge rip in the carpet all the length of the room. If we had stayed there we would have had to burn our clothes it smelled so bad. The food at the banquet was adequate but there was no offer of any beverage other that water and coffee and that we had to ask for. We had to pay for tea and soda. The recreation facility should have been condemned a few years ago and do the words broom and soap and water mean anything. We all ended up staying at the Pine Tree Resort and it is cute and quaint with a lovely staff. A little worn but just enough to give it character. We had prompt service and comfortable accomodations. I would stay there everytime I went up and our entire party agreed.
Peaceful & Beautiful
The setting at Bonnie Castle Resort is, I think, the most tranquil & beautiful of all the hotels. We had a great room right near the water right across from Bolt Castle. Can't wait to go back!
Bonnie Castle has a great restaurant with a lovely view and great food. The resort has lots going for it but if you are looking for a room that overlooks the water you might try somewhere else. Very few rooms have a water view or balcony close to the water.

For our second camping trip we headed out to Rideau Acres campground near Kingston. A nice campground although we we placed on the main road so a fair amount of traffic. Set up was much eaisier this time (we're learning) and we had a nice weekend just chillin'.
Breaking camp went well also and we were home around 3pm Sunday after an enjoyable drive home. Starting to get the hang of having the trailer behind, so far so good.

12 Aug In the Covid-19 crisis, good leadership and governance is “the difference between life and death”
FMG CEO Devadas, referencing the World Health Organisation’s situation report, underlines the importance of leadership and governance in guiding nations through times of crisis:
“Managing COVID in any country and globally is not centrally a clinical challenge, it is a test of governance. And governance not only in the present day but historically, as public health infrastructure and capacity and efficient and effective public administration, public finance adequacy and an adequately educated population are the work of generations, though the good work of generations can be ruined by poor governance in a much shorter period.
Good governance also incorporates trust between people and the government to ensure compliance with mandatory precautions without recourse to the use of force.
Finally, good governance is not only about good government but leadership in the civic and economic sectors working in concert rather than in contention with each other or the government.
Vaccine or no vaccine, the quality of governance is the difference between life and death for many in every population.”

Boxwoods are a popular evergreen shrub that can be used to create topiary balls. To make a topiary ball, you will need:
1) A boxwood shrub
3) A pot or container
The first step is to select a boxwood shrub. Boxwoods can be purchased at garden centers or online.
A boxwood topiary ball is a classic addition to any garden. Here is a simple guide on how to make one:
1. Choose a healthy boxwood shrub from your garden or nursery.
2. Cut off the desired amount of branches with pruning shears. Try to keep the cut as flush with the trunk as possible.
3. Remove all leaves from the branches and discard them.
4. Place each branch in its own individual pot filled with soil. The pots should not have drainage holes because they are going to sit inside the larger container that holds water for irrigation purposes. This allows roots to grow into the soil instead of through the bottom of the pot.
how to make a boxwood topiary ball
Topiary balls are a popular way to dress up a garden, and they are surprisingly easy to make. You will need a boxwood plant, some wire, and a wire cutter. Start by cutting a piece of wire about 18 inches long. Make a loop in one end, and twist it around the stem of the boxwood plant. Cut off any excess wire. Twist the other end of the wire around another stem on the plant to form a second loop. Continue twisting wires together until you have created your desired shape. The more twists you add, the thicker the base becomes. Once you’ve made all of your loops, cut them free from their stems with a pair of scissors or wire snips. This is an excellent project for kids who like playing outside!
Single ball topiary tree
A topiary is a plant that has been clipped and shaped into an ornamental form. The most popular type of topiary is the spiral form, but there are many other shapes that can be created. A single ball topiary is made by clipping a small boxwood bush into a round shape. It can be used as an indoor or outdoor decoration. This style of topiary will last for years if cared for properly.

Boxwood is a popular type of plant to use for this, but other plants can be used as well. Making a single ball topiary tree is not difficult, and can be done by anyone with basic gardening skills.
Topiary is the art of clipping plants into ornamental shapes. Boxwood is a popular choice for topiary because it is easy to clip and has a dense, compact growth habit. You can make a topiary ball from a single boxwood plant or from several plants clipped together. The technique is simple: just clip the boxwood plants into a ball shape and secure them with wire.

Next, cut off the bottom third of the shrub with sharp scissors. This will create the base for the topiary ball. Cut away all leaves from this section except those at the very center. Then remove the central stem by cutting through the bark on both sides until it comes out easily. Now flip over the tree trunk and repeat steps 1 & 2 again so that there are two layers of wood around the middle. Remove the inner layer of bark using your hands and fingers as you would when peeling an apple. Finally, use your knife to trim down the outer edges of the tree trunk into a circle shape. You can also make a triangle shaped topiary if desired.

This was a gig last Saturday held from around 2 in the afternoon to accommodate the fact that across town, Voivod and Doom, were playing in the Village that night. To attract attention for this, the organisers Into the Void, decided to hold this as an-all ages affair and to make it accessible to everyone. The fact that two of Ireland’s premier pagan metal bands were playing at it, made it an extremely enticing prospect. It is easy for many to see such bands and to think of the likes of Finntroll and Korpiklaani. There are major differences however. The two Irish bands embody what it is to embrace a more ancient and interesting time, rather than a deliberate attempt to court commercial favour.
Celtachor have a more doomy/black sound to them to set them apart. Inspired by the likes of Cruachan, Primordial and Tyr but also the likes of Enslaved and Bathory. They are a band that have in a quite short period of time have gained quite a live reputation for themselves and are set to release their debut album around November. And in frontman, Stefan De Roiste, they certainly can get themselves noticed. Eyes bulging in urging the crowds response and clad in traditional Gaelic dress, he certainly makes himself known. In addition to his vocals, he also contributes on tin whistle. He is not a one-man project though and is ably backed up by the excellent Anais on drums and solid bass and guitar work. In the Hall’s of Nuada, Rise of Lugh, The Battle of Tailtin are all tasters of the upcoming release whilst the Riders of the Fomor remind us of the excellent work on their sold out debut EP.
Waylander from Armagh, are due to be celebrating twenty years as a band next year, have a bit of an issue today. Michael Proctor, their bassist, has had a family bereavement, and cannot make it down in time for the gig. So, the band has to perform bassless for the gig. Initially, they do seem to be slightly worried by this and especially the two guitarists, Tor Dennison and Saul McMicheal. Waylander are a band that are inspired by the past and especially the work of bands such as The Horslips, but taking in themes from their own experiences from growing up in the troubles in Northern Ireland. They soon manage to find their feet though and especially multi-instrumentalist, Dave Briggs, who takes the opportunity to show case his tin whistle work. Front-man Ciaran O’Hagan, is very different in styles to the previous band, in that he possesses far more of a harsher sound almost akin to one of the German thrash leaders, Mille Petrosa or Tom Angelripper. The crowd are really into it now and songs like A Hero’s Lament, Born to the Fight, Honour Amongst Chaos, The Light, the Dark and the Endless Knot please all, whilst new tracks like Of Fear and Fury and Kindred Spirits make all quite interested in the new album due out.
All in all a good day.

text: Nowadays, different anatomical atlases exist for the anatomical interpretation of the results from neuroimaging and lesion analysis studies that investigate the contribution of white matter fiber tract integrity to cognitive (dys)function. A major problem with the use of different atlases in different studies, however, is that the anatomical interpretation of neuroimaging and lesion analysis results might vary as a function of the atlas used. This issue might be particularly prominent in studies that investigate the contribution of white matter fiber tract integrity to cognitive (dys)function. We used a single large-sample dataset of right brain damaged stroke patients with and without cognitive deficit (here: spatial neglect) to systematically compare the influence of three different, widely-used white matter fiber tract atlases (1 histology-based atlas and 2 DTI tractography-based atlases) on conclusions concerning the involvement of white matter fiber tracts in the pathogenesis of cognitive dysfunction. We both calculated the overlap between the statistical lesion analysis results and each long association fiber tract (topological analyses) and performed logistic regressions on the extent of fiber tract damage in each individual for each long association white matter fiber tract (hodological analyses). For the topological analyses, our results suggest that studies that use tractography-based atlases are more likely to conclude that white matter integrity is critical for a cognitive (dys)function than studies that use a histology-based atlas. The DTI tractography-based atlases classified approximately 10 times as many voxels of the statistical map as being located in a long association white matter fiber tract than the histology-based atlas. For hodological analyses on the other hand, we observed that the conclusions concerning the overall importance of long association fiber tract integrity to cognitive function do not necessarily depend on the white matter atlas used, but conclusions may vary as a function of atlas used at the level of individual fiber tracts. Moreover, these analyses revealed that hodological studies that express the individual extent of injury to each fiber tract as a binomial variable are more likely to conclude that white matter integrity is critical for a cognitive function than studies that express the individual extent of injury to each fiber tract as a continuous variable.

Cook the sweet potato in boiling water for 10 minutes or until tender, drain and mash, allow to cool slightly.
Meanwhile, place the fish in a shallow pan and just cover with water. Poach for five minutes, until just cooked then drain and flake.
Mix the mash with the fish, mustard, oats, parsley and seasoning. Divide into eight and mould into rounds.
Heat half the oil in a frying pan and fry four of the fishcakes for three to four minutes on each side until golden. Remove and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining fishcakes. Serve with salad. Try adding some Cajun seasoning for a spicy variation. Potatoes work just as well as sweet potatoes and this is a great way to use up leftover mash. Recipe: All About Oats

[Gnso-epdp-team] Contracted Parties and Small Teams #1 and #2

James, can you clarify this:
“many of whom could lose access to their registrations.”
From: Gnso-epdp-team <gnso-epdp-team-bounces at icann.org> On Behalf Of James M. Bladel
Sent: Monday, November 5, 2018 10:57
To: gnso-epdp-team at icann.org
Subject: [Gnso-epdp-team] Contracted Parties and Small Teams #1 and #2
ePDP Colleagues and WG Leadership -
This morning, Registry and Registrar representatives met to discuss the status of potential recommendations from Small Group #1 (Legal vs. Natural) and Small Group #2 (Geographic Regions) in our Draft Initial Report.
We concluded that there are some legal bases supporting these distinctions under GDPR and other data protection laws, and note that our Initial Report supports this. However, we reiterate our numerous high-level concerns against making any Consensus Policy recommendations for contractual requirements in these areas.
Our concerns involve:
* Legal - Aside from GDPR, other data protection laws are less clear on the distinction between legal and natural persons. Future regulations may contain contrary requirements. Furthermore, data of legal entities may contain or consist of personal information of natural persons, which would be entitled to protection under the GDPR and similar data protection regimes. Likewise, the geographic distinctions also create uncertainties.
* Technical - Contracted Parties are uniquely situated to assess the current level of the technological means available to us, and it is our stated position that a technical basis to reliably and confidently make such a distinction does not exist. Especially because any distinction schema would be dependent upon Registrant Self-Identification, which is fraught with error.
* Commercial - Developing and deploying this technology will involve significant costs, which may be prohibitive for smaller organizations and a barrier to market entry. Regardless of whether the distinction(s) are applied to new registrations or legacy domain names, it would be a logistical nightmare for Contracted Parties, and a source of confusion for Registrants, many of whom could lose access to their registrations.
* Asymmetrical Risks vs. Benefits - Contracted Parties would assume all regulatory risks of such an obligations, exclusively for the benefit of unburdened third parties.
* Scope - The distinction between Legal and Natural persons, or geographic regions, does not currently exist in the Domain Name System. Therefore, any recommendation mandating this change is outside the scope of the ePDP, and possibly the “picket fence” of Registrar and Registry contracts.
As a result, and for the avoidance of doubt, Contracted Parties oppose/reject any recommendations for new contractual requirements in the ePDP Draft Initial Report, and will remain opposed to these recommendations as we move towards final recommendations.

Following the spate of kidnapping in the country, the Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC) has expressed concern over the growing but pervasive rate of kidnapping, and poor proactive measures by the government to addressing the issue in the country.
The Executive Director of CISLAC Auwal Musa noted that in spite of the huge investments in security agencies the business still thrives.
He said while security of lives and property constitutes the fundamental purpose of government, CISLAC said it finds it worrisome that kidnapping for ransom which is direct threat to right to live and freedom of movement, has received little or no concern from the federal government despite persistent public outcry.
He said most Nigerians had gone through the trauma of being guests of kidnappers. Apart from paying hefty ransom, many of the victims do not live to tell their stories.
“We are not unaware that kidnapping for ransom which began in the South South region as a form of measure adopted by the agitating youths clamouring for resource control and the federal government; and in the North East region as a sustenance fund raising strategy by the insurgents, remains a fast growing menace flooding the country with exhausting financial demands that exacerbate existing socio-economic burden on the victims and unprecedented intensity in Zamfara, Borno, Adamawa, Kaduna, Katsina states, and other extensively underreported cases.
“We condemn poor response system and lack of appreciable proactive measures by relevant authorities, given the glaring danger alerts and trend of killings, ransoms and other illegitimately frustrating demands on the victims.
“We are worried over the present inefficiency, high-handedness and underperformance of the security forces as clear manifestation of unchecked secrecy and faulty recruitment processes that dominate the forces.
“Apart from the unaccountably questionable security votes, we are surprise that despite the huge budgetary allocation to defense and security in the country, the sector records severe systemic under-performance, poor personnel appraisal and encouragement, and dearth of appropriate incentives.
“We are surprised that the increasingly budgetary allocation and other financial considerations attributable to the sector are not judiciously utilized to effectively upturn situations and efficiently address the prevailing security challenges bedeviling the country.
“We are bothered by the poor state of infrastructural facilities across the country creating high tendency for poor standards of living with increasingly youth propensity to escape poverty and socio-economic deprivation.
He noted that while the rising youth unemployment with its socio-economic and political effects is worrisome, “we find apparent failure of the government to curb the challenge through holistic revamping and transformation of the critical sector shameful and disturbing.
“Although the creation of employment opportunities to absorb teeming youth constitutes majorly campaign promises and political agenda of successive administrations, the government has however, failed in initiating realistic needs assessment and appropriate ideology to address the scourge.
“We urge the review of recruitment process of the security agents as they are clearly no match to terrorists and thugs. Wide-spread corruption in security sector impacts the moral and equipment of all security agencies.
“The re-prioritisation away from absurd protection of politicians and governmental executives towards intelligence gathering and prevention is required.
“While the Police has a fundamental mandate to secure and protect the citizens, the obsolete legal framework, catastrophic mismanagement in the Police Force and the break-down of trust between the Police and the citizenry leaves the police corps and the citizens exposed to the violent crime.
“We call for the immediate passage of the laws that will improve the framework conditions for the Nigeria Police Force and other agencies. We call for a holistic policy which will rapidly improve prevention, sanctions and investigation of the kidnapping epidemic.
“We also call for clear lines of responsibilities and for consequential dismissal of political appointees and commanding officers if there is no rapid improvement measured by the decreased rate of kidnappings across the nation.
“We therefore, demand institution of an emergency response system that will adequately interpret kidnapping in line with insurgency and terrorism,” he said.No tags for this post.

ABU DHABI // Officials today announced widescale improvements and alterations to the emirate's roads in the hope that they will lead to another big change: improved safety. A design manual unveiled by the Urban Planning Council (UPC) will guide the design of future roads. But in the present, Department of Transport officials say improvements to the 327km Al Mafraq-Al Ghweifat motorway should erase its reputation as the most dangerous road in Abu Dhabi. Fourteen per cent of the emirate's wrecks occurred on the motorway in 2007. Ibrahim al Hmoudi of the UPC's transport section said good street design would be "vital to safety and quality of life to the people of Abu Dhabi". One of the UPC's proposed changes is to reduce the number of lanes on Abu Dhabi roads from three to two. That would allow pavements to be widened for bicycle lanes or shade for pedestrians. Mr al Hmoudi said it also would lead to a natural calming effect, reducing speeds on the roads. The so-called superblock layout in the capital would be broken up by intersections and more zebra crossings, which would increase crossing opportunities for pedestrians. In the future, the capital's streets also will have fewer right lanes at traffic lights, meaning all vehicles must stop for traffic, making it easier to cross roads on foot. Alterations of Khalifa bin Zayed Street will begin next year, with the UPC recommendations likely to be rolled out in Al Ain and Al Gharbia later. The move was welcomed on the street yesterday, with Limbo Ramez, a Nepalese electrician, saying it was crucial to close up unofficial pedestrian crossings. "It is not just me, it is everybody," he said. "If there is no gap, nobody will cross - very simple." Among the improvements announced by the transport department yesterday for the Al Mafraq-Al Ghweifat motorway, which will cost about Dh40 million (US$11m), were new warning signs and the closing of dangerous U-turns, where drivers face turning into oncoming traffic at high speeds. The motorway, the main thoroughfare between the capital and the Saudi border, is heavily used by lorries. firstname.lastname@example.org email@example.com

LOS ANGELES — On Tuesday, voters in California’s 25th Congressional District will choose the successor to former Representative Katie Hill, and Wisconsin voters in the state’s Seventh District will look to fill the seat left by former Representative Sean Duffy.
The race between Christy Smith, a Democrat and longtime elected official, and her Republican opponent, Mike Garcia, a former pilot and current defense contractor, has become increasingly nasty as they have battled on the airwaves while confined to their homes.
Wisconsin’s special election to fill the House seat vacated last year by Mr. Duffy, a Republican, is not expected to be close, but is being viewed by both parties as an important indicator of enthusiasm. Like Wisconsin’s contentious April 7 elections, the voting in the district, which covers parts of 26 counties in the state’s north, will be conducted both by mail and in person, with National Guard troops deployed to help operate some of the polling locations.
The National Guard has also been activated in Nebraska, which is holding its primary elections in the already-decided Democratic presidential contest as well as in local races.
Here’s what to watch for on Tuesday:
What will California turnout look like?
In the race to replace Ms. Hill, who resigned after admitting to an affair with a campaign staff member, the biggest question is turnout.
Every registered voter in the district received a ballot in the mail. All they have to do is place that ballot back in their mailbox — the postage is already paid for by the state.
But that is hardly a given, and early returns showed that Republicans are sending their ballots back at a significantly higher rate than Democrats. As of Monday, 40 percent of registered Republicans had mailed in their ballots, according to tracking data, compared with 27 percent of Democrats, who have about 30,000 more registered voters in the district.
During the 2018 midterm elections, liberal activists from Los Angeles flocked to the district to knock on doors, particularly focusing on independent and occasional voters — the sort of people who tend to sit out most midterm contests. Now, the question is: Will those voters participate this time?
And there is a significant gap in returns based on age and ethnicity: 51 percent of voters older than 65 have mailed in ballots, while just 15 percent of voters younger than 35 have done so. Roughly one-third of white voters have returned ballots, compared with 17 percent of Latinos, according to tracking data.
The Republican is echoing Trump’s misleading attacks
Those numbers have many Republicans optimistic that they may be able to pry back a California congressional seat from Democrats for the first time since 1998. But President Trump does not appear to be so optimistic; after backing Mr. Garcia last month, the president weighed in again this weekend, calling the election “rigged.”
In several misleading tweets, the president attacked the decision to add an in-person voting center in Lancaster, a city in the northern suburbs of Los Angeles County.
Mr. Trump wrote in a tweet: “So in California, the Democrats, who fought like crazy to get all mail-in only ballots, and succeeded, have just opened a voting booth in the most Democrat area in the state. They are trying to steal another election. It’s all rigged out there. These votes must not count. Scam!”
Lancaster is represented by two Republicans in the State Legislature and has long been governed by a Republican mayor, R. Rex Parris, who is a vocal supporter of Mr. Trump and has supported the move to open another voting center in the area, which is predominantly African-American. The center is one of 13 in-person polling places open on Tuesday, and will also allow for same-day voter registration.
Mr. Garcia echoed the president’s attacks, saying Ms. Smith and “her liberal Dem allies” are “desperate and trying to change the rules to steal an election,” adding, “We can’t let them succeed!!”
Mr. Garcia has repeatedly declined to be interviewed by national and local news media.

The margin of victory matters in California
In 2018, Ms. Hill won the district by a nine-point margin. All signs point to a narrower margin on Tuesday. And no matter what happens, the two candidates will go on to a rematch in November. Democrats have played down expectations for the special election, but argue that they will fare better in the fall, when more voters are motivated to show up for the presidential election.
If Mr. Garcia emerges the winner, expect Republicans to seize on the victory as evidence that they can win in suburban swing districts and as a way to energize their base.
But the district’s changes have been clear for years, as the electorate has become younger and more diverse. Now, nearly half of all voters in the district are black, Latino or Asian. In 2016, the district backed Hillary Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, over Mr. Trump by seven points — and a Republican win would most likely prompt hand wringing among Democrats, who are counting on suburban voters to take back the White House.
In California, Republicans have consistently lost ground to Democrats in the past several years — the G.O.P. holds just seven of the state’s 53 congressional seats.
If the Republican wins in Wisconsin, is that a win for Trump?
Tom Tiffany, a Republican state senator from Hazelhurst, Wis., is widely expected to beat Tricia Zunker, a Democrat from Wausau, Wis., and a school board official, in the special election for Wisconsin’s Seventh District congressional seat. But the margin between them will be instructive for what the state may look like in November’s presidential election in this battleground state.
Mr. Trump carried the district by 20 points in 2016; Mr. Duffy, the former representative, won re-election in 2018 by 22 points. He resigned last year to help care for a baby born with health complications.
Mr. Tiffany has campaigned as an ally of Mr. Trump’s and has not made any mistakes that have made Republicans nervous about his ability to hold what has become a deeply conservative part of the state. But if there’s any question about whether he’s the winner as votes are counted, it will say a lot about where Wisconsin stands in the presidential contest to come this fall.
A Nebraska Democratic primary
The Democratic presidential primary is over, but there is still a fight in Omaha between the party’s centrist and liberal wings.
Kara Eastman, a nonprofit executive who lost the 2018 race to Representative Don Bacon, a Republican, is running again in Nebraska’s Second Congressional District, which includes the state’s biggest city and its suburbs. She faces a Democratic primary against Ann Ashford, the wife of former Representative Brad Ashford, whom Ms. Eastman beat in the 2018 Democratic primary.
Ms. Eastman is no longer the surprise upstart she was two years ago. She’s raised more than twice as much money as Ms. Ashford has, and has more TV ads running in the primary’s final weeks. Endorsed by Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and liberal groups like Justice Democrats, she has staked out the role as the progressive candidate in the race.

EUSEBIUS MORSE MILES.
Extended realty activities throughout a number of well known regions in the Pacific coast country gave to Mr. Miles
a comprehensive knowledge of the soil, climate and possibilities of each section; and to Elsinore, where the closing
years of his life were passed, he gave a devotion of citizenship as sincere as it was unquestioned. Without making
any pretentious claims as to possible rivalry with the more populous cities of the valley, he yet appreciated its
spirit of quiet restfulness, understood its merits of soil and climate, and entered into harmonious accord with
its zeal for development and educational advancement Since his lamented demise Mrs. Miles has continued to reside
here and owns a cozy, attractive home, with real estate representing important moneyed aggregations.
It was the misfortune of Mr. Miles to suffer for many years as a result of the hardship, injuries and exposures
of war, and his death eventually resulted therefrom. Having been born in 1846, he was only fifteen years of age
when the war cloud darkened the national sky. Youth was no handicap to patriotism and he was enthusiastic to serve
the Union in the cause of freedom. With a company of privates from his native city of Galesburg, Ill., he enlisted
in the service and was assigned to Company C, Eleventh Illinois Cavalry, a regiment commanded by Col. Robert G.
Ingersoll. With the command he marched to the front and immediately began to take part in a series of engagements
that kept him in the din of battle and the excitement of camp until his health broke down. On account of a very
serious illness he was honorably discharged in 1864 and returned to his old home, where for some time he was unable
to engage in business of any kind. Indeed, he was never afterward rugged and sturdy, but was forced to give constant
attention to the care of his health.
The marriage of Mr. Miles took place in 1869 and united him with Miss Geraldine Shipman, a native of Wisconsin
and a daughter of Isaiah Shipman, the latter of Ohio birth, while Mrs. Shipman was born and reared in Canada; Mr.
Miles himself was of southern extraction and came from ancestry long identified with the development of Virginia
and Kentucky, his parents having been Kentuckians by birth. However, they left the home of their forefathers and
began anew among the pioneers of Illinois, where they lived to attain a fair degree of material success. Two sons
blessed the union of Mr. and Mrs. Miles. The elder, Eugene Herbert, was born at Chippewa Falls, Wis., and received
a high school education in that town. The younger son, Frank, was born in the same city in 1873 and died there
at the age of ten months. The family removed from the Falls to Iron River, Bayfield county, Wis., in 1891, but
during September of the following year they came for the first time to California and for five years lived at Castle
Craig, Shasta county.
Subsequent to a residence of eight years at Fall River Mills, Shasta county, Mr. Miles removed to Watsonville,
Santa Cruz county. During 1906 he went to Washington and carried on realty interests in Seattle for sixteen months.
At the expiration of that time he spent three months at his old home in Watsonville and then sojourned at Los Angeles,
whence he removed to Elsinore in 1906 and here, after more than forty years of ill health, he succumbed December
8, 1910, to the effects of his service in the Civil war. For a long time he had retained membership with the blue
lodge of Masons at Chippewa Falls, Wis., and his body was conveyed to that town, where the beautiful burial service
of the order was read beside his last resting place. His long struggle against ill health and his brave attitude
in continuing business affairs despite physical suffering, had won for him the sympathy and admiration of friends
at every place where he made his home. Often, in testimony of their appreciation of his discouragements, his friends
in the Republican party elected him to local offices and at such times he received likewise the support of many
Democrats, for he was respected by all acquaintances regardless of their political views.

Earlier this week, anti-piracy lawyers ACS:Law had their website taken down by a 4chan DDoS attack. Adding insult to injury, owner Andrew Crossley was harassed at home in the middle of the night by prank phone calls. Now, through a fault with his website, hundreds of megabytes of private emails have been exposed to the public and uploaded to The Pirate Bay. To those hoping that this is a MediaDefender-type fiasco all over again, trust us – it is.
After coordinating DDoS attacks against the MPAA, RIAA and anti-piracy company AiPlex Software this week, 4chan turned to a new target.
Anti-piracy lawyers ACS:Law, who send out tens of thousands of letters demanding cash-settlements from often innocent Internet subscribers, became the new target. The company, which is headed up by lone principal Andrew Crossley, is widely hated among file-sharers and innocents alike and with 4chan’s Operation Payback now in full swing, payback is the operative word.
After prank telephone calling Crossley in the middle of the night during the week, it now seems that 4chan are aiming to tear his professional life apart, as they have obtained and are distributing a 350mb file of the company’s website which includes countless company emails.
So how were they obtained?
“Their site came back online [after the DDoS attack] – and on their frontpage was accidentally a backup file of the whole website (default directory listing, their site was empty), including emails and passwords,” a leader of the attacking group told TorrentFreak. “The email contains billing passwords and some information that ACS:Law is having financial problems.”
Financial problems? Interesting. Many tens of thousands of people who received letters from ACS:Law are also experiencing the same problem, having already paid up several hundred pounds each to make non-existent lawsuits go away.
“We’re still sorting through it. There’s a lot of stuff here to go through. But, basically, we were told we were less important than a 10 minute late train, or a queue for coffee by Andrew,” the attackers’ spokesman told us, adding:
“Payback is a bitch, isn’t it Andrew?”
Actually, I think right about now, Andrew is the bitch.

by Agorist died
The number of people who die from disease among all infected individuals, whether asymptomatic or asymptomatic, is known as the infection fatality rate. (IFR). As for COVID-19, it is widely known that age plays a huge factor in mortality. According to the Centers for Disease Control, the IFR for children is almost zero (0.002%) which means it is very rare for a child to contract and die from COVID-19.
The IFR rate approaching zero for children during COVID-19 has been a huge relief for parents around the world. Because the infection rate among children was so low, schools were able to safely reopen their doors in 2020, and some states have never closed them. Despite the fear of the mainstream media, schools weren’t the “super-high-profile” events that the masses in favor of the lockdown made.
Had children been flooding emergency rooms with COVID-19, be assured this epidemic would have happened very differently. Fortunately, this was not the case, and the vast majority of children remained completely safe.
In 2020, when vaccine manufacturers rushed to market COVID-19 vaccines, none of them tested children. This was because of two things: Children are not as vulnerable as adults, and the FDA has only granted emergency use permission for the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to those 16 and over. Moderna and Janssen vaccines have been given emergency use for people 18 years of age or older.
However, in March 2021, that all began to change and Pfizer Advertise Clinical trials of the COVID-19 vaccine in healthy children between the ages of 6 months and 11 years. Johnson & Johnson and Moderna also made similar ads.
“Pfizer has deep experience developing clinical trials of vaccines for children and infants and is committed to improving children’s health and well-being through carefully designed clinical trials,” the company said in a statement.
But this statement above appears hollow given Pfizer’s lesser than stellar (and, in fact, criminal) record. Pfizer has paid billions in fines for healthcare fraud and has been a party to the largest healthcare fraud settlement in US history.
The The pharmaceutical giant paid $ 2.3 billion In 2009 to solve the criminal and civil liability arising from the illegal promotion of some pharmaceutical products.
“Pfizer has violated the law over an extended period of time. Moreover, at the same time that Pfizer has been in our office negotiating and resolving allegations of criminal behavior by its newly acquired subsidiary, Warner Lambert, Pfizer itself in its other operations has been violating Those same laws, “Mike Lux, the acting Massachusetts county attorney at the time said.
But this was only one case. This company has a proven track record dating back decades that includes everything from bribing government officials to illegal business Testing products on children To make false claims about drugs and their illegal marketing – Which leads to multiple deaths. Despite achieving the biggest push in history, Pfizer has been called to the carpet since 2009 multiple times to mislead the public about their medications – Up to and Including vaccines.
Despite their checkered pasts, immediately after Pfizer announced it would start testing a COVID-19 vaccine in children, the mainstream media and the government undoubtedly began recommending children get the vaccine – before clinical trials end.
Some states have even linked childhood vaccination to Relaxation of lockdown restrictions. Michigan officials, particularly Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, have plunged the state into tyranny over the past year, issuing some of the country’s toughest lockdowns. The lockdowns have done nothing to curb the epidemic in the state either, and appear to have had the opposite effect as Michigan remains the worst COVID-19 hotspot in the country, with an average infection rate for seven days at 235.2 per 100,000 people. – More than double the national average of 96.6, according to Y. Center for Disease Control.
Despite pressure from the media and the government alike to have children vaccinated, it appears that most parents simply do not want it for their children. Last week, Joe Rogan was criticized for comments he made regarding younger people and the COVID-19 vaccine. Calls were made to Spotify by the miners to pull Rogan out of the airwaves for his opinion.
Even Biden officials heeded Rogan’s opinion, saying “Did Joe Rogan become a doctor while we weren’t looking?” Ironically, these are the same people pushing the words of Bill Gates – who’s also no doctor – as the gospel of everything COVID-19.
Although the miners force Rogan to “clarify” his comments, most people seem to agree with him. Only about 29% of parents of children under the age of 18 said they would get their children vaccinated “immediately” as soon as the child was eligible, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation Covid-19 Vaccine Monitor data Posted Thursday.
That’s less than a third of parents surveyed despite massive pressure in the media and the government to tell everyone that herd immunity would be impossible without vaccinating children.
Suspicion about a vaccine that is now only being tested on young children is completely normal, especially considering that it is being put out under permission for emergency use and Not Fully approved by the Food and Drug Administration. It is really healthy to question the safety of such widespread measures that have not been tested as widely as other vaccines.
Even so, those who advocate vaccine safety are being silenced, banned, and pushed into the dark corners of the internet – despite the fact that more than 70 percent of parents doubt their children receive it right away. This is not the way a free society works. This is how an authoritarian and technocratic medical police state works and we need to stop rushing to it.
Doubt is healthy. Wondering about everything healthy. Those who seek contempt for this trait in humanity do not take your interests into consideration and have no business that influences your decisions. Fortunately, for now, it appears that their attempt to suppress natural human doubts has not been successful. Nice work America.

Worth noting the line...
"The BBC also confirmed the series will have a 10-week run of 50-minute episodes in autumn 2018, starting with a feature-length hour show for the launch."
It seems slightly odd that most episodes will be 50 minutes, instead of either 45mins or 1 hour. It'll be interesting to see what the programme length will be when shown abroad & repeated on UKTV. Looks like the number of episodes has decreased again, having originally been 12 (excluding X-Mas episodes) on the new series, then cut to 11, and now to 10.
Also I see we're going to have to wait until next Autumn until the new series. Considering Jodie Whittaker was announced back in July I assumed the next series would be in the Spring, as with the previous series. I can't help speculating that cost-cutting at the BBC may play a factor.
