On December 10, the photojournalism class of Ms. Benedicte Kurzen had their works on display at the Robert Pastor Library.
The work is a photo exploration of a particular subject from environment to security. Each work also had a legend that describes it.
Aisha Babangida’s work, “Beauty Street,” and feature story “Daily Life,” capture a particular line of shops in the Jimeta Modern Market. In her words, “It’s a street where every shop is like a little theater.” Ms. Babangida’s photo work shows different ways that women beatify themselves from hair styling to nail fixing. Other items of beauty such as dresses, accessories, shoes, and veil that beautify women were also on display.
Kalifa Noma’s work, “Mai Gadi,” is on the traditional guardsman. Here, he features the vigilante guards who help secure Yola. The exposition featured the guard holding a gun, the guard’s living room, local weapons such as machetes and local guns, as well as some traditional objects that serve as his talisman.
Cletus Ilomuanya explored 35-year-old Abdulateeef Oyinlola as “an all-round sports enthusiast.” His feature story “The Kick Fanatic” shows his body-building work and martial art training, as well as karate, kick boxing, yoga, and Tae Kwando. According to Ilomuanya, Oyinlola’s father was a boxer and mother was a sprinter.
Ms. Zamiyat Abubakar’s work “Recycling Cycle” is on the environment, focusing on the sustainability efforts at AUN.
Grace Johnsini’s “Almajiri No More,” features the story of AUN Almajiri Feed and Read program where children are being taught to read and be provided a meal a day. The exhibited photos show their prayer session, eating, learning, and queuing for meal, and the set of plates they use in feeding.
Faridah Harunah’s work “By the River” features the environment. In the photo work, she shows the Yola axis of River Benue, and the fishing activities of people in the community as well as the landscape, surroundings, and people fishing in the river.

A Metabolomic Perspective on Coeliac Disease
News Apr 07, 2014
Metabolomics is an "omic" science that is now emerging with the purpose of elaborating a comprehensive analysis of the metabolome, which is the complete set of metabolites (i.e., small molecules intermediates) in an organism, tissue, cell, or biofluid. In the past decade, metabolomics has already proved to be useful for the characterization of several pathological conditions and offers promises as a clinical tool. A metabolomics investigation of coeliac disease (CD) revealed that a metabolic fingerprint for CD can be defined, which accounts for three different but complementary components: malabsorption, energy metabolism, and alterations in gut microflora and/or intestinal permeability. In this review, we will discuss the major advancements in metabolomics of CD, in particular with respect to the role of gut microbiome and energy metabolism.

‘Get Him To The Greek’ is a Comedy Rock-movie, which was released back in 2010; starring Jonah Hill and Russell Brand. The movie was written, produced and directed by Nicholas Stoller. The movie discusses the personal life of a famous Rockstar after his fall, due to producing a song against the African society and how events developed with him from a falling star and back to the top again.
The movie had several points that should be discussed separately:
The Same bad Image of a RockStar:
The movie continues to have the same bad image for any star, especially who chose Rock music to for a career. The front man Aldous Snow of the mentioned band in the movie Infant Sorrow, cares about nothing, but himself. His main target in life is drugs and sex. The Movie also portrays how Snow only cares for money.
There is no doubt that the acting was excellent. The actors did their best in the movie and they delivered their emotions and feelings very well through their acting.
Sex And Drugs All The Time
88% from the movie’s dialogue was about drugs and sex and a big portion of the scenes were about the same subjects as well, and that really drove me crazy. When Aaron was sent to bring Snow to L.A for the tenth anniversary of his legendary performance at the Greek Theatre – hence the name. Snow showed Aaron the dark side of being a famous rock star by clubbing, drinking, sex and drugs. The real question here, was why did the movies and the society portray the difference in a negative image? It is not only about music, it is a matter of difference. Society refuses any difference and it keeps is distorted.
Where is the Music?
As I waited to watch where the music will play a part of the movie, as I thought the music would be part of the theme, but the movie revolved around Aldous Snow. The movie doesn’t show any of the band members and their relations with each other, how they produce their music and I could never imagine that one man could control his band although it’s a teamwork. The usage of the music was supposed to be more than that.
Love, Loneliness and Human Feelings:
I can’t deny that the movie contained some good scenes and ideas as fame doesn’t support care, and love.
Clothes And Accessories:
The outfits of all actors were suitable for them expect for Russell Brand because, his clothes style was familiar to pop style more than rock one, as well as the accessories.
Finally, and after the discussing of all points, I loved the humanities’ parts in the movie and the matter of feelings but the scenes of drugs and sex wasn’t very comfortable and the main subject is not clearly discussed.
I give the movie 5 out of 10.

Lou Bunk, electronics and invented instruments
“Figure and Ground” is an eclectic program of contemporary works that in different ways explore innovative approaches to the relationship between developing figures and the environments in which they’re set. The program features works by three composers associated in part with the tradition of spectralist music, Edmund Campion, Dominique Troncin, and Jonathan Harvey. Pianists Marilyn Nonken and Augustus Arnone will perform Edmund Campion’s virtuosic work for two pianos, “A Complete Wealth Of Time,” written in 1989-90 while the composer was studying in France with Gerard Grisey. The work is based around variations on a 4 note motive, presented initially as a bare skeleton, but later progressing to more complex harmonic and rhythmic configurations, in effect transitioning from clear figure to a swirling and complex ground. Another work on the program, Jonathan Harvey’s “Run Before Lightning” (2004) for flute and piano, is characterized by torrid and unstable harmonic textures based around the acoustic characteristic of the flute itself. These works will be joined by new compositions written for Collide-O-Scope Music by Aaron Brooks, Nathan Davis and COSM co-director Lou Bunk, as well as music by Webern andBrown.
Marilyn Nonken is one of the most celebrated champions of the modern repertoire of her generation, known for performances that explore transcendent virtuosity and extremes of musical expression. Upon her 1993 New York debut, she was heralded as “a determined protector of important music” (New York Times). Recognized a “one of the greatest interpreters of new music” (American Record Guide), she has been named “Best of the Year” by some of the nation’s leading critics. Marilyn Nonken’s performances have been presented at such venues as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Miller Theatre, the Guggenheim Museum, (Le) Poisson Rouge, IRCAM and the Théâtre Bouffe du Nord (Paris), the ABC (Melbourne), Instituto-Norteamericano (Santiago), the Music Gallery (Toronto), the Phillips Collection, and the Menil Collection, as well as conservatories and universities around the world. Festival appearances include Résonances and the Festival d’Automne 4both, Paris) and When Morty Met John, Making Music, and Works and Process (all, New York), American Sublime (Philadelphia), The Festival of New American Music (Sacramento), Musica Nova (Helsinki), and Aspects des Musiques d’Aujourd-hui (Caen). Composers who have written for her include Milton Babbitt, Drew Baker, Pascal Dusapin, Jason Eckardt, Michael Finnissy, Joshua Fineberg, Liza Lim, and Tristan Murail.
Collide-O-Scope Music, now in its fifth season, is a contemporary music ensemble music with a focus on combining diverse media forms and emphasizing the relationship between emerging technologies and their aesthetic impact. Led by Artistic Directors Augustus Arnone and Lou Bunk the group has maintained a dedication to commissioning new works from some of the exciting emerging composers of our time as well as performing essential classics from the modern repertory. A signature feature of Collide-O-Scope Music concerts has been an innovative approach to the medium of the public concert itself, where fixed works give way to episodes of improvisation and open-form interactive music in a seamless unbroken pastiche. Collide-O-Scope Music has performed at premier venues around New York and presented by The Issue Project Room, The Cell, Firehouse Space, and The Intersections Festival (Washington DC). The group has commissioned an ever growing body of works by composers including Yotam Haber, Spencer Topel, Aaron Brooks, Nathan Davis, Ken Ueno, Derek Hurst, John Mallia, Elizabeth Adams, James Romig, Michael Klingbeil, Matt Lima, Jack Callahan, Chris Bailey, and Todd Tarantino.

Things are suddenly heating up again with Fukushima. As reported yesterday, the southern wall of Fukushima reactor #4 apparently collapsed over the past few days, calling into question the structural integrity of the remainder of the containment building.
The mainstream media has said absolutely nothing about this development, continuing its pattern of downplaying news involving Fukushima, radiation or the flawed structure of nuclear power plants. This is hardly surprising, given that many of the largest media outlets are owned by corporations such as General Electric, the designer of many of the world's nuclear power plants.
Photos of the failed structure have emerged on Enenews.com, where a report explains that a once-intact wall is now essentially "missing" and that further degradation of the structure could lead to mass evacuations in Japan.
50 million times higher radiation levels
What has hit the mainstream media, however, is a report entitled Impacts of the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plants on Marine Radioactivity, authored by Ken Buesseler, Michio Aoyama, and Masao Fukasawa
This report, published in Environmental Science & Technology, reveals that levels of radioactive cesium reached 50 million times normal levels in the ocean water off the coast of the Fukushima Dai-ichi facility. Even more concerning, the abstract of this paper concludes, "...the concentrations through the end of July remain higher than expected implying continued releases from the reactors or other contaminated sources, such as groundwater or coastal sediments."
This, of course, contradicts mainstream media reports which for the most part stated that the radiation was "contained" and was not leaking directly into the environment. Only the alternative press has covered the real story on Fukushima, which has now become the worst radiological accident in the history of human civilization.
This same study ultimately concludes that this level of radiation contamination of the ocean is essentially harmless, stating, "...dose calculations suggest minimal impact on marine biota or humans due to direct exposure in surrounding ocean waters, though considerations for biological uptake and consumption of seafood are discussed and further study is warranted." That's a conclusion to be viewed with skepticism and caution, of course, as it says on one hand that "it's no problem" and yet on the other hand, maybe you shouldn't eat the seafood because we really don't know what quantity and concentration of radioactive elements may be ingested and concentrated by seafood sources.
Radioactive strontium admittedly leaked into the ocean
Another important development now surfacing is that TEPCO has finally admitted that alarming quantities of radioactive strontium (which has roughly a 30-year half life) have leaked into the ocean -- and that the leaks are ongoing!
According to TEPCO, which has repeatedly and deliberately lied to the public in order to downplay any "bad news" about radiological leaks, " 26 billion becquerels of radioactive materials" have leaked into the oceandue to the Fukushima accident.
"This suggests that the releases have not ended, so that is of concern," said Ken Buesseler from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. "If the contaminants end up in the marine sediments / muds, then they will remain there for decades to come, and thus potentially be of concern for benthic biota and consumers of benthic fish/shell fish, i.e. any local filter feeders near the source waters at the coast."
The worst may be yet to come
What's clear from all this is that:
If you want the truth, don't trust official sources
Under such circumstances, the wise thing to do is stay informed and get prepared in case the Fukushima situation suddenly worsens. Hopefully everyone in North America knows by now that another release of radiation from Fukushima could widely contaminate the West Coast of the United States with radioactive fallout.
Given that government agencies in both the United States and Japan have altered the definitions of allowable radiation exposure limits, it hardly seems reasonable to think that these government are erring on the side of caution. In fact, by all accounts these governments are proactively working to downplay the severity of any future radiological event by claiming that levels of contamination previously considered poisoning are now suddenly "within safe limits."
But within whose definition of safe limits? After all, the U.S. government also thinks it's perfectly safe for you to drink fluoride, microwave your body at TSA checkpoints, eat genetically modified organisms, get yourself repeatedly injected with chemical adjuvants in vaccines and drink aspartame.

Davids is currently fighting to win her fourth term this November — a tough battle, as her district’s demographics have changed to become less Democratic-leaning, and Republican opponents are lining up to challenge her. But she has also been fighting another very important battle: the fight for increased access to mental health care.
Davids has co-sponsored bipartisan legislation to fund mental health programs in local clinics, schools, and law enforcement centers, as well as a bipartisan bill to help people recovering from substance abuse reenter the workforce. She has also supported dozens of bills to bring down the costs of health care and prescription drugs and introduced the Pride in Mental Health Act — legislation that would improve data collection and resources for at-risk queer youth.
For Davids, mental health strikes an especially personal chord since she’s part of two distinct groups with disproportionately high rates of suicide: Native Americans and young LGBTQ+ people. Native Americans die from suicide at higher rates than any other racial or ethnic group, according to a 2022 reportfrom the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Another recent CDC study found that LGBTQ+ young people are over four times more likely to attempt suicide than their cisgender and heterosexual peers.
But this issue cuts across political, geographic, and generational lines, she says. If anything, Americans’ mental health worsened during the isolation, fear, and uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic — over half of adults with a mental illnesscan neither access nor afford mental health care.
Davids believes increasing access to mental health care isn’t merely “putting a Band-Aid on a broken arm.” Rather, she sees such access as an integral part of improving people’s overall emotional well-being.
“I think it’s like an all-of the-above approach, where we do need to be thinking about the most severe and sometimes acute issues happening around mental health or mental illness,” Davids says, “but we also need to be doing that long-term work that helps prevent things like bullying, helps prevent things like young people who are in the foster care system not having anyone around who understands, who has never gotten the training to understand what they’re going through as part of the LGBTQ+ community.”
“If what we’re doing over time is helping people understand how to cope, how to recognize the impacts of trauma, or help people interact with people who are experiencing those things,” she continues, “then I wouldn’t call that a Band-Aid. I would call it the necessary work for keeping people healthy and safe.”
Because many Americans have loved ones who have struggled with mental health, she’ll often watch her conservative colleagues’ committee hearings or press conferences to listen for an opening to reach across the aisle and engage them on this issue.
“There are folks who care about youth mental health and emotional well-being in a way that it probably just doesn’t cross their mind to think about the LGBTQ+ impact,” she says. Some of her conservative colleagues are “often surprised” when they find out about the aforementioned CDC statistics. These discussions can sometimes lead to larger conversations about LGBTQ+ civil rights.
Praising David’s bill to improve data collection on the mental health of queer youth, Melanie Willingham-Jaggers, executive director of the LGBTQ+ student advocacy organization GLSEN, said, “Being excluded, erased, and further stigmatized — by discriminatory policies, peers, and by adults who should protect young people — harms LGBTQI+ youth’s mental health and overall well-being.”
Davids says, “A lot of times, [my conservative colleagues] might not be aware of how often discriminatory practices [against LGBTQ+ people] are allowed under the law. It’s not right, and it’s not fair, and it doesn’t align with the values that, as Americans, we want to see and that we’re all constantly striving for,” she says.
The mental health disparities facing the LGBTQ+ community are just one part of the institutionalized discrimination experienced by queer people.
Studies suggest that when queer people have the same legal protections as their cisgender and heterosexual peers, their mental health improves, alleviating the anxiety and depression that otherwise accompany worries about discrimination. When Davids points out to colleagues that people can be rejected from a jurybased on their sexual orientation or denied housing based on their gender identity, she notes that she’s not trying to give “special rights” to people based on their unique identities — she’s just trying to make sure that all individuals are afforded the same rights, protections, and responsibilities as other citizens under the law.
Questioning the 2024 election’s long-term impact
Since arriving in Congress, Davids has noticed Republicans increasingly targeting LGBTQ+ rights amid their attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
Last year, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and members of the far-right Freedom Caucus demanded the removal of LGBTQ+-inclusive DEI policies from 12 appropriation bills to effectively fund all U.S. government agencies. She and other Republicans claimed that policies are “woke,” are anti-American, waste taxpayer money, and make the nation less safe.
Similar criticisms have especially accelerated now that it’s an election year.
“There’s a shift, we’ve seen it, and we’re also seeing it in state legislatures that there’s a ‘two steps forward, one step back,’ ” she says. “There’s a ‘one step back’ happening in quite a few places on a number of different types of issues.”
“We have responsibilities to the people who come after us, but also to the people who came before us.”Rep. Sharice Davids
Though President Joe Biden signed a law requiring government entities to recognize same-sex marriages nationwide and the Supreme Court ruled that it’s unconstitutional to fire someone just for being LGBTQ+, Republicans in other states have pursued legislation to allow religious-based discrimination against LGBTQ+ people, including by medical providers. While the Biden administration has restored protections for trans and nonbinary students to access school facilities and sports teams matching their gender identities, Republican-led state legislatures and school boards have been trying to roll back these rights.
Polls have indicated that voters aren’t enthusiastic about a rematch between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. Davids urges voters to not only consider the immediate issues facing their communities but also the long-term impacts of the policies we support, something her Native American identity as a member of the Ho-Chunk Nation has taught her to do.
“I ask questions about the long-term impacts — not for political purposes, but because it’s just kind of how I think about things,” she says. “We have responsibilities to our family, to our community, to our tribe; we have responsibilities to our country; and we have responsibilities to the people who come after us, but also to the people who came before us.”

If you’re interested in finding the best engine oil for your infiniti g35 you’re in the right place. We’ re about to cover all you need to know in order to ensure that you don’t mess up and buy the wrong oil.
For a start you should understand that the majority of modern vehicles in most cases would function better if the oil was fully synthetic because it gives better gas mileage, and the G35 is no exception to this.
So you may want to plan on using an engine oil like fully synthetic 5W-30, which ensures that the engine will stay lubricated and functioning in colder or hotter conditions while keeping fuel use efficient. Such an oil will also promote smooth operation and less friction between the metal engine parts.
It is usually better to get a branded lubricant, as they tend to be more reliable and have proven themselves in the market. To make things easy, simply keep reading and you will find the best engine oil for your Infiniti G35 listed below.
Best Oil for Infiniti G35 – Top 5 Picks Reviewed
We have thoroughly checked all of the top engine oils available in order to come up with this list of the five best options available on the market at this current time for every price range.
Each of these products offers overall performance, and value for money. They also each have their own unique set of pros and cons, so read on to find out which is the right choice for you.
1) Castrol Edge 5W-30 Advanced Full Synthetic Engine Oil
Castrol SAE 5W-30 is defined with its Fluid Titanium Technology. This technology provides strong motor oil assistance for certain engines that operate harder because of higher temperatures. That puts a lot of pressure on the engine. Hence, it helps your engine to work like that while maximizing vehicle performance.
Castrol EDGE is one of Castrol’s finest engine oils. It is premium pure synthetic oil designed for consumers who desire the best performance from their cars while keeping their engines healthy. Top-of-the-line car manufacturers approve Castrol EDGE. This oil by Castrol is no regular oil, and it caters to the engine needs of cars like Mercedes-Benz and BMW, and of course the infiniti g35.
This oil meets high temperature requirements like no other oil on the market. The Fluid Titanium Technology changes the oil’s behavior when it is under pressure. As a result (and due to the increased demand for strength and fuel economy), engines have evolved so much to cater to these needs in the last three decades. However, just transforming the engine might stress out the oil and would lead to more friction. Eventually, the engine performance goes down under these conditions. The pressure can go up to 10 tons per square centimeter. That is like many cars resting on a high heel that relies on a thin layer of oil.
Therefore, you need to understand the importance of a good engine oil to reduce friction and boost an engine’s horsepower and fuel economy. For fighting today’s increased pressure faced by the engine, Castrol’s patented Titanium Technology ensures excellent results in friction reduction. Additionally, its anti-wear properties ensure it does not wear out the engine.
Is It Suitable for the Infiniti G35? The most acceptable engine oil for the Infiniti G35 is the Castrol SAE 5W-30 oil. As Castrol EDGE 5W-30 is currently the most advanced motor oil, if you want the best performance for your vehicle, then SAE 5W-30 is highly recommended. As said before, the formula features Fluid Titanium Technology, this formulation is the best to decrease direct metal-to-metal contact compared to any other options.
This oil is excellent for smooth engine operation, and it greatly enhances engine performance. So, this will eventually save you a lot of money that you were planning to spend on a new motor. This SAE 5W-30 oil is perfect to use for the Infiniti G35 as it meets all the specifications provided by the manufacturer. The viscosity is very suitable for all kinds of temperatures generally. However, if the temperature drops to 0°F, then you may switch to SAE 10W-30.
2) Castrol GTX High Mileage (5W-30)
Castrol GTX High Mileage motor oil is specially designed for those engines that go above 75,000 miles. However, it is not a fully synthetic engine oil. Instead, it is a mix of different synthetic oils that extend your engine’s life and protect it from sludge. The blend of oils is also very useful for preventing any burn-off to protect the emission system overall.
Castrol GTX High Mileage oil also exceeds the manufacturer’s warranty requirements regarding the applications which consider API SN and ILSAC GF-5. It also has advanced technology to keep the catalytic converter and emission system protected from wear-off and sludge. It’s a great option that is specifically formulated with a little phosphorous content, unlike other oils. As vehicles become old, their strong features grow weaker leading to costly repairs and replacements. For high mileage vehicles, the failure of the catalytic converter is one of the most commonly occurring problems and the most expensive repair.
Phosphorous is a “catalyst poison,” and mostly cheaper quality oils consist of high phosphorous content. That is primarily responsible for making the catalytic converter weak. Castrol GTX High Mileage Oil is liquid engineered for phosphorous replacement to replace most phosphorous content with other advanced additives that do not damage the catalytic converter and make it robust.
Other than the mileage, this oil has other additional features to offer too. It also improves fuel economy, and the additional additives make the engine powerful, preventing it from wearing down as fast.
This engine oil is a great choice for high mileage Infiniti G35s, but modern G35 engines would function better if the oil is fully synthetic because then it will give better gas mileage. The only drawback of Castrol GTX is that it is not made of full synthetic oil, which if your vehicle is high mileage isn’t actually a bad thing.
3) Mobil 1 ESP Motor Oil
Mobil 1 ESP 5W-30 oil is a very advanced performing engine oil that gives promising results to keep engines clean. Hence, it has a strong cleaning power built into it which keeps the engine protected from getting worn out. Mobil 5W-30 is expertly designed to help increase the car’s life span while caring for the car’s emission system for both petroleum and diesel-fueled cars.
Mobil ESP Formula is a very strong synthetic motor oil made using proprietary blends of top-of-the-line ingredients. This formula is fully compatible with all the latest Diesel Particulate Filters along with Gasoline Catalytic Converters.
Mobil synthetic motor oil is guaranteed to meet or even exceed all the requirements of modern vehicles. Mobil technology is standard equipment for many different vehicles, including high-performance vehicles like the infiniti g35. It is a promising formula for keeping the g35’s engine well lubricated and looked after – with a focus on keeping it clean.
4) Pennzoil Ultra Platinum Fully Synthetic oil
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum Synthetic motor oil has to be one of the finest motor oils available on the market today. It is made of fully synthetic oil that works best for healthy engine life. It’s famous for outperforming other conventional oils in the market for high-temperature performance and stability.
Their fully synthetic motor oils are uniquely designed by revolutionary Pure Plus Technology. This converts natural gas into top quality synthetic base oil, and it is a patented process. Since it is produced using natural gas, the high-quality base oil may contain more impurities than other base oils made from crude oil. But the formula becomes better as soon as it is combined with some advanced additives. Hence, that makes it one of the best formulations in the market.
Pennzoil Ultra has been approved by the most distinguished car manufacturers such as Ferrari. It tends to exceed all the requirements that any engine would have, such as protection and cleanliness. Other than all those high end cars, it has also been very suitable for vehicles including trucks, vans, and anything using the infiniti g35 or similar engines.
Pennzoil SAE ultra Full Synthetic Motor Oil offers many other benefits, such as acting as an effective cleaner for pistons. It also benefits fuel economy because you can easily drive an extra 550 miles on average per year compared to the economy of a dirty engine.
This Oil also protects the engine against loss of power. Hence, the engine is safe from getting worn out and waste depositing at the bottom. It is one of the best motor oils for protection against friction as it keeps metals safely gliding apart. Therefore, you can be relieved that all the internal components of your engine are safe from friction as it can severely damage your engine’s health. It’s also suitable for operating your engine in a wide variety of different temperatures and climates.
5) Valvoline Fully Synthetic Motor Oil
Lastly, this oil by Valvoline is an excellent choice too. It is made with fully synthetic oil that keeps the engine healthy and ensures the smooth functioning of other engine parts. It also protects the engine, ensuring that there is no wear, deposits, and excessive heat in it. What makes it different from other engine oils is that other than being fully synthetic, it is also formulated with durable additives. That makes the oil stronger and boosts engine performance. Hence, the engines health and longevity is further extended.
Valvoline Synthetic Motor Oil gives advanced protection for vehicles that are used all day long. The oil is well researched and designed with extra added substances to bring further innovation to the market. It is also well designed to protect the engine from extreme weather conditions.
It has a lot of engine cleaning properties too. Because of various additives included in the ingredients, it makes sure to protect from sludge and deposit formation throughout the integral parts of the engine. Overall it is another decent choice for the infiniti g35.
Buying Motor Oil for your Infiniti G35
In the above list we have gone through some of the top picks available on the market for your infiniti G35’s engine. If you’re in a rush you can just pick one of those listed above and rest assured you will have made a decent choice! But to ensure that you get the right oil for your specific engines requirements you should read on through our buyers guide below. We will go over many of the key points that you need to consider before you make any definite buying decision.
Each engine manufacturer lists specific oil requirements including oil grade, viscosity, etc – the G35 is no different. So take a look at these well thought out tips in order to keep your engine performing well and in top shape for years to come!
Stock Grade Engine Oil for Infiniti G35
The G35 is recommended to be supplied with 5w-30 grade engine oil. This is great advice generally, but not in all cases. The 5w30 oil is mostly suitable for lower temperature climates in terms of performance. If you want higher performance in a hot climate then opt for something like 10w-30 instead.
Infiniti, the manufacturer, recommends not using oils with additives. Again, this is good advice in a general sense but only provided that you stick to regular maintenance schedules. Oils with additives in other cases may help prolong the life of your engine.
Type of Oil (Viscosity etc)
There are a huge amount of different engine oils available on the market today. The key figure to look at when trying to sort though them to get to the one you want is the SAE grade. This is the piece of information that lets you know how well a given oil will perform in different temperatures.
The number before the “W” shows the oil viscosity at 0 degrees, and the number afterwards is the flow at a temperature of 212 degrees F. So if you live in an area where the climate is lower you should go for something with the first number being reasonably low. And if you live in a particularly hot climate you need to look at the second number as well.
Fully Synthetic Oil, Blend, or Conventional
For a good all around solution that looks after the engines longevity, a synthetic oil mixed with a high grade conventional oil is a safe bet. It will do the job nicely on any modern vehicle and will help keep the engine clean during operation. The price of a synthetic blend is generally less than that of a fully synthetic engine oil, which is another thing worth considering.
Full synthetic oil is usually the most expensive option and has higher performance than the standard OEM options. It also allow the engine to operate more efficiently, thus using less fuel. Since it’s the most expensive option some people do opt for conventional oil instead.
Engine Oil by Vehicle:
Each manufacturer tends to have recommendations for which oil you should use for specific conditions, for each different engine – the infiniti G35 is no different in this regard. Which one of the oils listed above you should choose depends on your own specific needs, including the conditions in which you will be driving your vehicle.
As choosing the right engine oil for your infiniti g35 is crucially important to ensuring that the engine maintains high performance over a long period of time, you should not make this decision lightly. Hopefully our top 5 list along with the buying guide makes this process a bit easier for you.

Speak Out against sexual and domestic violenceNorthwestern Wisconsin residents will rise up and speak out against sexual violence Thursday in recognition of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. The fourth annual Speak Out Superior features a march from the University of Wisconsin-Superior to the Douglas County Courthouse, followed by music, food and speakers.
Northwestern Wisconsin residents will rise up and speak out against sexual violence Thursday in recognition of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. The fourth annual Speak Out Superior features a march from the University of Wisconsin-Superior to the Douglas County Courthouse, followed by music, food and speakers. New at the courthouse this year is a separate, supervised room for children, where they can enjoy structured, age-appropriate activities that tie in with the Speak Out Superior message. The event is organized by the Center Against Sexual and Domestic Abuse, Inc. (CASDA), and the UWS Gender Equity Resource Center.
Speak Out Superior participants will gather at 4:30 p.m. in UWS parking lot 2, between Burger King and Pilgrim Lutheran Church. The group will then march down Belknap Avenue to the Courthouse to rally and hear from speakers from 5:30-6:30 p.m. The event is open to Superior residents and anyone who wants to take a stand against sexual violence. Free parking is available in UWS lot 2. Speak Out Superior T-shirts will be available at the event and can also be purchased in advance from CASDA for $7 each or $9 for extra large sizes.
Presenters at Speak Out Superior will include Mayor Bruce Hagen, Sen. Bob Jauch, Superior Community Policing Officer Bonnie Beste and emcee Jane Larson, Human Development Center “Project Reach Out” coordinator. Superior Police Detective Michelle Lear will receive CASDA’s annual Community Helping Hand Award to recognize her tireless work helping victims of domestic and sexual violence in our community. Members of the public will also be invited to share their experiences and survivor stories.
Douglas County ranks fifth out of Wisconsin’s 72 counties in the number of reported sexual assaults per capita, according to 2010 data provided from the Wisconsin Office of Justice Assistance. More than 1,200 of Wisconsin sexual assaults were reported to law enforcement eight or more days following the incident. Many sexual assaults are never reported, making the number of incidents very difficult to track. Nearly 90% of Wisconsin sexual assaults reported in 2010 were committed by someone known to the victim.
CASDA provides supportive services to individuals hurt by domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse, as it advocates for a community effort to end violence. For more information about Speak Out Superior and other Sexual Assault Awareness Month activities, please contact CASDA at (715) 392-3136, go to www.casda.org or visit their Facebook page.

The Strathnaver Trail links and interprets 29 archaeological sites beginning at the Strathnaver Museum where you can get a map and very informative Trail Guide.
The trail guides visitors around a wide range of sites, including the remains of Neolithic horned chamber cairns, Bronze Age cairns and hut circles, Iron Age brochs, Pictish carved stones and pre-Clearance townships. The 29 sites include 12 Scheduled Ancient Monuments, one listed building (the museum), and several other monuments that provide good examples from different periods.
The landscape of Strathnaver has evolved under human influence for at least 6,000 years. Together, these structures create a powerful picture of life throughout several millennia in what is now an almost deserted landscape. All the sites lie within a compact geographical area. In addition to its prehistoric sites, which have made Strathnaver a favourite venue for university and archaeology society field trips, the area has historical associations with key events and personalities during the infamous Highland Clearances of the 18th century.

A treasure trove of high adventure and bad behavior, Booty tells the all-true tales of real women pirates who prowled the seas from the 9th to early-20th centuries in search of easy prey and easy profit. Raiding ships, boozing, brawling, and looting, they struck terror in the hearts of men from the Mediterranean to the South China Sea to the rivers of New York. Meet Rachel Wall, who traded her devout religious upbringing for "lewd and wicked company"; Cheng I Sao, who led a fleet of 2,000 ships and made her men drink cocktails of wine and gunpowder; Mary Read, who killed one pirate for the love of another; and Sadie the Goat, who headbutted her victims before fleecing them of cash. Their exploits and those of many more swashbuckling women fill these pages, along with salty illustrations and an informative look at the finer points of pirate life (grog, flogging, fashion, and more). Arrrrr.
Anderson's essay shows how the European processes of inventing nationalism were transported to the Third World through colonialism and were adapted by subject races in Latin America and Asia.
Revered and reviled, Leo Strauss has left a rich legacy of work that continues to spark discussion and controversy. This volume of essays ranges over critical themes that define Strauss's thought: the tension between reason and revelation in the Western tradition, the philsophical roots of liberal democracy, and especially the conflicting yet complementary relationship between ancient and modern liberalism. For those seeking to become acquainted with this provocative thinker, one need look no further.
An illuminating study of the intertwined lives of the founders of the American republic--John Adams, Aaron Burr, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington.During the 1790s, which Ellis calls the most decisive decade in our nation's history, the greatest statesmen of their generation--and perhaps any--came together to define the new republic and direct its course for the coming centuries. Ellis focuses on six discrete moments that exemplify the most crucial issues facing the fragile new nation: Burr and Hamilton's deadly duel, and what may have really happened; Hamilton, Jefferson, and Madison's secret dinner, during which the seat of the permanent capital was determined in exchange for passage of Hamilton's financial plan; Franklin's petition to end the "peculiar institution" of slavery--his last public act--and Madison's efforts to quash it; Washington's precedent-setting Farewell Address, announcing his retirement from public office and offering his country some final advice; Adams's difficult term as Washington's successor and his alleged scheme to pass the presidency on to his son; and finally, Adams and Jefferson's renewed correspondence at the end of their lives, in which they compared their different views of the Revolution and its legacy. In a lively and engaging narrative, Ellis recounts the sometimes collaborative, sometimes archly antagonistic interactions between these men, and shows us the private characters behind the public personas: Adams, the ever-combative iconoclast, whose closest political collaborator was his wife, Abigail; Burr, crafty, smooth, and one of the most despised public figures of his time; Hamilton, whose audacious manner and deep economic savvy masked his humble origins; Jefferson, renowned for his eloquence, but so reclusive and taciturn that he rarely spoke more than a few sentences in public; Madison, small, sickly, and paralyzingly shy, yet one of the most effective debaters of his generation; and the stiffly formal Washington, the ultimate realist, larger-than-life, and America's only truly indispensable figure. Ellis argues that the checks and balances that permitted the infant American republic to endure were not primarily legal, constitutional, or institutional, but intensely personal, rooted in the dynamic interaction of leaders with quite different visions and values. Revisiting the old-fashioned idea that character matters, Founding Brothers informs our understanding of American politics--then and now--and gives us a new perspective on the unpredictable forces that shape history.
There is no easy way out of the spiraling morass of terror and brutality that confronts the world today. It is time now for the human race to hold still, to delve into its wells of collective wisdom, both ancient and modern.--Arundhati RoyThe Power of Nonviolence, the first anthology of alternatives to war with a historical perspective, with an introduction by Howard Zinn about September 11 and the U.S. response to the terrorist attacks, presents the most salient and persuasive arguments for peace in the last 2,500 years of human history. Arranged chronologically, covering the major conflagrations in the world, The Power of Nonviolence is a compelling step forward in the study of pacifism, a timely anthology that fills a void for people looking for responses to crisis that are not based on guns or bombs. Included are some of the most original thinkers about peace and nonviolence-Buddha, Scott Nearing, Henry David Thoreau's Civil Disobedience, Jane Addams, William Penn on the end of war, Dorothy Day's position on Pacifism, Erich Fromm, and Rajendra Prasad. Supplementing these classic voices are more recent advocates of peace: Albert Camus' Neither Victims Nor Executioners, A. J. Muste's impressive Getting Rid of War, Martin Luther King's influential Declaration of Independence from the War in Vietnam, and Arundhati Roy's War Is Peace, plus many others.
The complete text of the Constitution of the United States is accompanied by a helpful glossary of terms, explanatory notes, incisive commentary, and a discussion of the document's historical background and significance. Reprint.
In his introduction to this new translation by Russell Price, Professor Skinner presents a lucid analysis of Machiavelli's text as a response both to the world of Florentine politics, and as an attack on the advice-books for princes published by a number of his contemporaries. This new edition includes notes on the principal events in Machiavelli's life, and on the vocabulary of The Prince, as well as biographical notes on characters in the text.
Did the world change on September 11, 2001? For those who live outside of New York or Washington, life's familiar pace persists and families and jobs resume their routines. Yet everything seems different because of the dramatic disturbance in our sense of what our world means and how we exist within it. In A Delicate Balance, philosopher Trudy Govier writes that it is because our feelings and attitudes have altered so fundamentally that our world has changed. Govier believes that there are ethical challenges we cannot ignore. From Plato and Aristotle on courage to Kant on revenge, to 20th Century philosopher John Rawls's views on justice, Govier mines the world of philosophy to reflect on terrorism. Govier argues that moral complexities such as victimhood, evil, power and revenge, if properly understood, can provide a basis for hope- not despair. Govier walks the reader through this shift, challenging us to construct a new sense of the world and our place within it.


WWE NXT Results: Winners, Grades, Reaction and Highlights from June 1
With TakeOver: The End right around the corner, the Superstars who will play a key role in that night's proceedings took center stage on the June 1 episode, the spotlight burning brightest on Asuka and Nia Jax as they signed the contract for their upcoming NXT Women's Championship match.
Tag teams dominated the show, with The Revival kicking off the evening's broadcast, only to be interrupted by Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano. The opening promo led to a huge main event bout, but that was far from the only in-ring content on Wednesday.
Austin Aries and Tye Dillinger were both in action to round out the night's festivities.
What went down ahead of June 8's monumental and potentially historic TakeOver broadcast? Who stood out, who emerged victorious and what did it mean for the current state of NXT?
Find out with this look back at Wednesday's show, its biggest winners and analysis.
The Revival Promo
Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson kicked off the show by promising to end American Alpha's NXT Tag Team Championship reign.
Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano interrupted, only to have their status on the NXT roster questioned by the former tag champions, who essentially referred to them as jobbers. Ciampa and Gargano responded by challenging The Revival to a match, but that went unanswered.
Gargano and Ciampa called their courage into question, leading to a double dropkick by the babyfaces and the former champions retreating.
A match between the two was announced for later in the show.
This did more for The Revival than any match could have in that it gave them the opportunity to talk. Unfortunately, they are not nearly as confident as one would hope. Add to that some fairly generic mic work from Gargano and Ciampa, and you have a promo segment that probably should have been significantly better than it was.
The only reason it did not grade out worse than it did was for the aforementioned microphone exposure it granted The Revival and the fact it led to the creation of a potentially great main event tag bout.
Tye Dillinger vs. Buddy Murphy
In Buddy Murphy's first opportunity to prove himself as a singles competitor in quite some time, he entered the NXT Arena without Alexa Bliss and Wesley Blake for a showdown with Tye Dillinger.
The Australian competitor stalled early, and he found himself at the mercy of Dillinger when the action finally picked up.
Breaking free of a strong arm bar by The Perfect 10, he wore his opponent down. Dillinger mounted a comeback with a series of chops, followed by a Thesz Press. A big back body drop followed, and the 10 corner punches continued Murphy's suffering.
A fireman's carry neckbreaker followed and Dillinger scored the victory.
Tye Dillinger defeated Buddy Murphy.
Well, Tye Dillinger victories do, in fact, exist.
This was an interesting match in that one would have assumed Murphy would be the spotlighted Superstar as the story of his split from Blake and Bliss took center stage. Instead, perennial enhancement star Dillinger essentially dominated the action and scored the win.
Dillinger is an incredibly talented wrestler but has always been one push away from being a star. With so many of his contemporaries moving onto the main roster, perhaps the door is open for him to finally enjoy a bit of the spotlight.
Austin Aries vs. Elias Samson
On the heels of the announcement he will battle Shinsuke Nakamura at TakeOver: The End, Austin Aries battled "The Drifter" Elias Samson in singles competition.
Samson controlled the middle portion of the match, working his same, tired and generic offense.
Aries battled back, using a series of chops and clotheslines. A diving back elbow from the second turnbuckle and a suicide dive continued Aries' intense comeback. A corner dropkick preceded the Last Chancery, which secured the submission victory for the former Ring of Honor and TNA world heavyweight champion.
Austin Aries defeated Elias Samson.
Austin Aries' confidence in NXT continues to grow. He looked as good as he has to date Wednesday night, an intense comeback leading to a submission win, proving that he has an arsenal of weapons with which to beat his opponent.
The clean and decisive win is exactly what Aries needed just seven days from his match with Nakamura, which could prove to be the most important of his career.
Samson, once an intriguing character, is essentially dead in the water. He has zero momentum but remains over thanks to the complete disdain the audience has for him.
Tommaso Ciampa & Johnny Gargano vs. The Revival
The overconfidence of former NXT tag team champions The Revival proved damning for them as they attempted to put Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa away in the main event of the in-ring portion of Wednesday's show.
Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson showed their strong tag team chemistry, working over Ciampa after seizing control off a momentary distraction. The Sicilian Psychopath found himself in trouble, isolated from his partner and in danger of losing the contest for his team.
A hot tag to Gargano, though, energized the babyfaces. The heels cut off the momentum for a moment, a superplex from Dawson to Gargano seemingly turning the tide back in the favor of the heels. As the Superstar hit the mat, Johnny Wrestling stunned Dawson with a small package and scored the upset victory for him and Ciampa.
After the match, the villains made the victors pay, using The Shatter Machine. American Alpha made the save and stood tall.
Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano defeated The Revival.
It would be fun to see what these two teams are capable of with more time, higher stakes and a more energetic crowd. All four wrestlers are talented performers, and that much was on display Wednesday night.
The upset victory gives Ciampa and Gargano a claim to the tag title opportunity, which likely awaits them post-TakeOver. They have been a staple of NXT of late, and for good reason. Could their time at the top of the brand finally be on the horizon?
As for The Revival, they figure to lose their rematch to American Alpha anyway, so the loss likely means nothing. Dash and Dawson are a great tag team and will rebound nicely later.
Women's Championship Contract Signing
Nia Jax and NXT women's champion Asuka met in the center of the ring to sign the contract for their upcoming match at next Wednesday's TakeOver: The End.
General manager William Regal oversaw the proceedings, applauding everything Asuka has achieved in only nine months with the brand. Jax, less impressed, told the champion she is not afraid of her.
After some words in her native tongue, Asuka warned Jax she should be afraid.
The No. 1 contender countered a kick from the champion and planted her with a powerbomb to close out the show.
Sometimes the most effective segments are short.
Neither Asuka nor Nia Jax is a strong talker at this point in her career. So why throw them out to suffer in front of a live audience? What they were asked to do was simple and did more to sell the danger element of each woman than any long, drawn-out segment would have.
Asuka remains one of the more intriguing characters in NXT. Here's hoping the different layers of the Japanese enigma are explored more thoroughly coming out of TakeOver.

Del Bosco positive; Riffle national champion
Colorado Springs, CO (Nov. 5, 2004)The United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) announced Friday that Chris Del Bosco of Vail, Colorado, an athlete in the sport of cycling, tested positive at the USA Cycling Mountain Bike National Championships on September 26, 2004 in Mammoth Mountain, California.
Del Bosco tested positive for tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a prohibited substance under World Anti-Doping Agency’s prohibited list. THC is listed as a “specified substance” under the rules. This substance is included in this category because it is less likely to be abused for doping purposes.
Del Bosco, 22, received a public warning for a first offense. In addition, he is disqualified from his first place finish at the event. Union Cycliste International is the international federation for the sport of cycling. USA Cycling is the national governing body for thesport in the United States and will carry out the sanction.
USADA is responsible for managing the testing and adjudication process for athletes in the U.S. Olympic Movement. USADA is equally dedicated to preserving the integrity of sport through research initiatives and educational programs.
Del Bosco, who won the pro men’s downhill event at the inaugural USA Cycling Mountain Bike National Championships in September, forfeits his national title.
As a result, Duncan Riffle (Santa Barbara, Calif.) has been awarded the national title.

Woodgate Aviation has signed up Northern Ireland golfer, Jonny Caldwell, to ‘spread the word’ as part of an all-out drive to win business ahead of The Open in 2019.
Under the sponsorship deal, Jonny will grace golf courses wearing shirts emblazoned with the Woodgate Aviation logo.
The intention is to reach as big a UK and international audience as possible ahead of the big build-up to the prestigious Royal Portrush event.
The Clandeboye golf pro who plays in the PGA Euro Pro Tour will be seen by a global television audience, on Sky Sports, as he competes in forthcoming tournaments.
Jonny says the arrangement with Woodgate Aviation is a ‘most welcome boost.’
He adds: “I am delighted to have the support of Woodgate Aviation. I will wear shirts with the company’s logo and hopefully drive up awareness of what this great Northern Ireland company is capable of doing.
“Woodgate’s hangar is the most modern and best equipped anywhere in the island of Ireland and I can see considerable interest from golf pros who will be taking part in The Open in 2019. It’s an ideal location for them or charter aircraft companies to touch down for the Championship and then use helicopters to get to Portrush.”
Woodgate Aviation Business Development Manager, Keith McKay, said: “This sponsorship is all about spreading the word nationally and internationally that’s there’s a world-class facility here with a proven track-record in meeting the most exacting needs of the private jet customer.
“Golfers talk to golfers, and I know Jonny will make a first-class ‘ambassador’ for the company when he’s talking both on and off the course. That’s an audience we need to reach and Jonny will also help give us the increased visibility we need.
“This is the start of Woodgate Aviation’s own race to The Open. We want to cater to the needs of golf pros and the small legion of customers who either own or charter private jets to get to where they need to be. We couldn’t be better placed to do that job.”

Riddley Leads Pride Men To Victory Over Columbia International
Courtesy of Wes Gullett, Greensboro College SID
ROCKY MOUNT, N.C. – The Greensboro College men’s basketball team closed out the 2017 Roger Taylor Invitational at North Carolina Wesleyan College Saturday with a 94-72 victory over the Rams of Columbia International University.
With the game tied at 16 with just over ten minutes to play in the first half, Greensboro went on a 9-2 run to take a seven-point lead with 7:27 showing on the clock. Kyle Riddley, who finished with a game-high 27 points, started the run with five straight points, while Torrence Lathon added the remaining four points.
Following the Greensboro run, CIU was able to battle back over the next eight minutes to regain the lead at 36-35 before the Pride closed out final two minutes of the first half on a 11-6 run to take a 46-42 lead into halftime.
On the Pride’s first possession of the second half, Joseph Gatling hit a shot from three-point land to push the Greensboro advantage to seven points.
Much like the middle part of the first half, Columbia International was able to chip away at the Greensboro advantage and pull within one point at 52-51 with 16:06 left to play.
However, Greensboro was able to hold their advantage.
The Pride was then able to put together a 16-4 run that lasted five minutes to extend their lead back out to 13 points midway through the final period. The run featured four three-pointers. Gatling hit two shots from long-range, while Keyford Langley and Riddley had one each.
Over the final 10 minutes of play, Greensboro would not allow the Rams to get any closer, while pulling away for the 22-point victory.
Five other Greensboro players joined Riddley in double figures scoring. Trey Smith, Gatling and Langley had 12 points each, while Carmoni Marks and Lathon chipped in 10 points each.
The Pride finished the contest shooting 49-percent from the field and 42-percent from long-range.
Following the conclusion of the game, Riddley was named to the All-Invitational team.
The Greensboro men will return to action at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 13 when they host the Falcons of Pfeiffer University. For more information on Greensboro College men’s basketball, continue to follow www.greensborocollegesports.com.

Three Young Friends See Elderly Woman Eating Alone, Here’s What They Did Next
"I think it was a God thing. I think God sent me there," she said.
We live in a world where we see a lot of mistreatment of the elderly, and it is so nice to see the true kindness, that in actuality, happens often. Three friends went to eat, and they noticed a little old lady silently eating alone. What happened next went viral.
While the incident happened in April, the post and story are still garnering attention, with almost 300k likes, 75k shares and over 27k comments. So let’s continue to share this random act of kindness! You share this story as well!
Jamario Howard, JaMychol Baker and Tae Knight, were waiting for their food at a restaurant in Oxford, Alabama. They noticed 80 year old Eleanor Baker dining by herself. Eleanor is a widow and lives with her dog. While she has a big family, they mostly live out of town, so she was alone the night she went to the restaurant.
“My exact thought was, ‘Dang I’d hate to have to eat alone,'” Howard wrote on Facebook. “So after thinking about it a minute I walked over to her and asked if i could sit with her.”
After some conversation, Howard learned that it was Widow Baker’s Anniversary. The 60th!
“After a while of talking she told me she lost her husband and that tomorrow would have been their 60th anniversary,” Howard wrote. “I instantly gave my condolences and asked her to come eat with us, which she was excited to do.”
What a special thing to do. So important, that little word; Kindness.
Howard went on to explain:
“The point in this is always be kind and be nice to people. You never know what they are going through. This woman changed my outlook on life and how i look at other people. Everyone has a story so do not judge! And people i can’t stress this enough. GO SEE YOUR MOM AND YOUR GRANDPARENTS. They miss you!!”
Widow Baker said her visit was especially divine.
“I think it was a God thing. I think God sent me there,” she said.

Those 20-somethings enjoyed her company as much as she enjoyed theirs.
“‘Cause when we left there, that’s all we talked about,” said Tae Knight.
“When you make that kind of connection with somebody, it’s hard to let it go,” said JaMychol Baker.
“And it was really just a nice, pleasant evening,” said Eleanor.
The elderly widow touched the young men’s hearts. They touched thousands of others by sharing their story of kindness. It was a win, win, win!
I was very close to my grandmother.
My grandmother lost her older brother, Marcus, when he was 16 and she was 14. While, obviously, I never met him, she had so many stories. By the time I became an adult, I knew him well.
He was an incredible baseball player. Like few had ever seen. He was good to the heart. Too good, she always said, for this world.
Church and teaching God’s Word were priority to him.

Most especially, he love the elderly. He hugged every little old lady at church services, without ever a miss. He went and helped them at their homes when in need, and often when that need was just a visit. He was well known in his small Oklahoma community for how he treated the elderly.
So as a young man, I made it my goal to be just like him, a Great Uncle I never met.
So the elderly, and as well teaching God’s Word, have been a priority in my life. Always. I cannot count how many times i have been in a rest home to sing and visit. I never miss getting my hugs from the elderly at church. So it is with tears in my eyes that I write this article today.
It is so important. Be kind to the older folks. Go walk through a rest home. Now! Get up, leave my article and go do it! You will reap the benefits, and so will those you speak to. You don’t have to know them. They will say ‘hello’ first, I guarantee it!!!!
Go. Now. Get up off you butt and do it! Kindness!


text: I was lucky enough to get a pass to see Hanna last Tuesday before it officially opened, and even luckier that the film’s teenage star, Saoirse Ronan, was there (in Brooklyn, in fact!) to answer questions after the movie. Saoirse, who is probably best known for her roles in Atonement and The Lovely Bones, was being considered for the hugely coveted role of Katniss in The Hunger Games but now the cat’s out of the bag that Jennifer Lawrence was has been cast. She’s basically unrecognizable in Hanna with her eyebrows bleached. The scenes in which she stars in with Jessica Barden – who’s a teen soap star in England – are so spot-on for real teenage interaction that they’re hilarious and heartbreaking. I was really lovin’ this movie, especially the soundtrack by the Chemical Brothers, and really… with Eric Bana, how can a film go wrong? Anyway, my point in this post is that even though the film is an action thriller, it contains some of the most genuine teen dialog I’ve seen in any recent movies. And Saoirse is fantastic, both in the movie and in person. She raved about getting to go see Lady Gaga in Berlin for her 16th birthday, spent on the set of Hanna. She artfully dodged questions from the audience intended to start a discussion about too much violence in movies and the recent tendency to put guns in the hands of young female characters by insisting that Hanna’s just a character and the impact of the violence in the movie is offset by her innocence. As a writer, I frequently struggle with wondering how much frank dialog about the kinds of things teenage girls really talk about might be offensive to some readers to put down in words, and how much violence is just too much to include. The last thing most artists want is to inspire negativity in their audience. But I am of the belief that honesty and presenting violence in a way that emphasizes its brutality in a way that might function as a deterrent is OK.

Jason Giambi hit his 30th homer and drove in five runs, helping the New York Yankees rout the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, 17-3, last night in St. Petersburg, Fla., to nudge closer to the Red Sox in the East.
Hideki Matsui and Jorge Posada had four RBIs apiece, and the Yankees climbed a season-high 19 games over .500 to pull within 2 1/2 games of Boston.
Jaret Wright (5-2) allowed three runs and five hits in seven innings, winning his third straight decision since coming off the disabled list Aug. 15. He had no decisions in his previous three starts.
Giambi had a three-run homer in the first and a two-run single in the sixth, when New York scored seven runs and batted around for the third time in the game. The Yankees had 20 hits, 18 singles.
After getting just 12 homers and 40 RBIs during an illness-filled 2004 season, he has reached 30 homers for the sixth time in his career and driven in 79 runs.
Matsui went 4 for 4 with a two-run double and two-run single. Posada drew a bases-loaded walk in the first, then followed with a RBI single in the second and two-run single in the sixth.
Tampa Bay has been a troublesome opponent for the Yankees, winning 11 of 17 games between the teams.
The Yankees scored five times in the first and added five more runs in the second, with the first seven batters reaching base in each inning against Doug Waechter (5-10) and Dewon Brazelton.
Indians 5, Athletics 2 -- Ben Broussard's second homer of the game, a tiebreaking three-run shot in the eighth inning, sent host Cleveland over Oakland and kept the Indians in control of the wild-card race.
Cleveland was down, 2-0, in the seventh when Broussard hit a two-run homer.
The Indians lead the Yankees for the wild card by one game. They moved 2 1/2 games ahead of the Athletics.
Kevin Millwood (8-11) allowed one run and seven hits while lowering his league-leading ERA to 3.02, and Bob Wickman earned his AL-leading 40th save.
Mariners 2, Angels 1 -- Greg Dobbs singled in the winning run with two outs in the ninth inning, enabling host Seattle to prevent Los Angeles from widening its lead over Oakland in the West.
The Angels lost dropped their second straight to Seattle but still lead the Athletics by one game.

Earth's interior is made up of a series of layers that sit below the surface crust. In order of depth, these layers include the solid, but flowing mantle, the liquid outer core and the solid iron outer core, which helps create Earth's protective magnetic field. The layers can also be categorized into the rigid outer lithosphere (which includes the crust and top portion of the mantle and makes up Earth's tectonic plates) and the athenosphere, the portion of the mantle that is solid, but made up of hot, weak, flowing rock. Read about the latest research on Earth's layers below.
After analyzing the crater from the cosmic impact that ended the age of dinosaurs, scientists now say the object that smacked into the planet may have punched nearly all the way through Earth's crust, according to a new study.
Researchers have found that the vast majority of brimstone — reverently referred to in biblical times as "burning stone," but now known more commonly as sulfur — dwells deep in the Earth's core.
Mysteriously, most of the expected levels of xenon are missing from Earth's atmosphere. Now, researchers might have the answer: The noble gas, which usually doesn't bond with other atoms, may chemically react with iron and nickel in Earth's core.

Our Mission, Our Values
Boston CASA, Inc., is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote and advocate for the best interests of children involved in abuse and neglect cases in Suffolk County. We fulfill our mission by recruiting, training and supervising community volunteers to serve as Court Appointed Special Advocates ("CASAs”) who work to ensure that these children have safe and permanent homes.
The Boston CASA Program
Statistics show that if a child remains in the "system” more than one year the possibility is very high that he/she will live out his/her subsequent childhood in multiple placements. Historically, the "system” often has failed this population either in not promoting the satisfactory reunion of the parent and child or in not providing for the successful placement of the child with adoptive parents.
It is from this perspective that Judge Francis G. Poitrast, Chief Justice of the Juvenile Court Department of the Commonwealth and Presiding Judge of the Boston Division, concerned with the need for permanency for these children, established the CASA Program, under the jurisdiction of the Court in 1982.
CASA - Court Appointed State Advocate
Since that time, volunteers from the community have given their time to advocate for abused and neglected children. The basic goal of the CASA/GAL volunteer is to ensure that child victims of abuse and neglect are not overlooked in an overcrowded court system. CASA volunteers are appointed by the Judge as Guardian ad Litems for "Best Interest”. These GAL's conduct thorough on-going investigations and present relevant facts at court hearings and provide advocacy, to ensure that services are being provided to the children.
The Boston CASA Program is a fully autonomous 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. At the present time, the staff is comprised of an Executive Director, Program Manager, Advocate Supervisor, Administrative Coordinator, and Development Officer. The role of staff is to screen applicants, provide training, process referrals, and provide supervision to volunteers working on cases.

It's almost 2 months since I travel alone. The experience is surreal, I've learn to appreciate the beauty of every tourist spots and not to be so conscious about the pictures. At my back is the famous mosque in Brunei which we always see in the magazines. .
I find peace in this place, the locals are helpful and you don't have to worry walking late (except for the public transportation which has schedules and very limited), the crime rate is very low and almost none. The weather? Oh, just like here in the Philippines, also no time difference. .
Travelling here may sound not popular which I really planned for. Here, you can prove that they are the true Green Heart of Borneo.💚
"And then I always thought the words, and then, were a prelude to something wonderful. Like seeing a ship come in or finding a note in your letterbox when you weren't expecting one.That swift, surprising transition from nothing to everything.
Two little words that hold a world of promise. And then the light pierced through the dark, forbidding sky, and the rain stopping falling.
And then I met you."

The Early Years, 1917 to 1925
While traveling in Asia in 1913, Levi Barbour visited with UM alumni in Singapore, Shanghai, Beijing, Manchuria, and Tokyo. In Japan and China, he met three medical school alumnae who had established successful practices as medical missionaries in their native countries: Mary Stone (born Shi Meiyu) and Ida Kahn (born Kang Cheng), both of whom graduated in 1896, and Tomo Inouye, who graduated in 1901. Barbour was impressed by the lengths they’d taken to obtain a higher education, by their talent, and by their impact in providing some of the only medical care available in their areas. These meetings solidified and shaped his existing interest in bringing female international students to UM.
In a letter to President Hutchins, Barbour explained his intent: “The idea of the Oriental girls’ scholarship is to bring girls from the Orient, give them an Occidental education and let them take back whatever they find good and assimilate the blessings among the people from which they come.” Barbour felt that women “should have every facility for education and every right and privilege to exert their influence to the fullest extent.” He saw a need for professionally trained women in Asia and recognized the value of greater cross-cultural understanding between Asia and the United States—both significant at a historical moment when anti-Asian prejudice and immigration restrictions were increasing in the United States and when Asia was striving rapidly to modernize.
Barbour brought Kameo Sadakata and Mutsu Kikuchi to Michigan under his own care in 1914, and the Barbour Scholarship was formally established in 1917 when the Board of Regents accepted Barbour’s gift of $50,000 to endow scholarships for young women from Asia and the Middle East. Barbour further solidified the program’s financial foundation with another gift of $50,000 in year—totaling approximately $2M in 2017 dollars— and with his bequest of real estate holdings in Detroit to provide renewable income.
Early program reports note the recruitment challenges posed by women’s irregular access to academic preparation and highlight the dramatic obstacles that early scholars overcame, even though most were from privileged families: some disguised themselves as boys to obtain early education, left the segregated seclusion of purdah in India, or resisted the practice of foot binding in China. Arrival at Michigan posed its own challenges; the Michigan Daily reported on a Barbour Scholar’s travel as an event of interest to the entire campus, and transition to life in Ann Arbor could be difficult. Struggles were often but not always met with sympathy by campus officials.
Levi Barbour lived to see the scholarship begin to grow. In 1922, twenty-two young women from Japan, China, and India had received the scholarships. Just three years later, the total number had reached fifty-seven. Barbour had met many of them personally, and those who were in America at the time of his death in 1925 attended his funeral in Detroit and conducted a memorial service for him at Betsy Barbour House.

A new infestation of an invasive ant species capable of causing blindness and decimating crops has been detected at Terania Creek, nearly 30 kilometres north of Lismore, in northern New South Wales.
The yellow crazy ant is a highly destructive species which is said to be in the top 100 invasive species in the world and they have the potential to wreak havoc on the environment.
NSW had been yellow crazy ant free for more than a decade until an outbreak early last month in the Lismore central business district.
- Yellow crazy ants are recognised by their pale yellow colour, unusually long legs and antennae.
- Their name is derived from their frantic movements and frequent changes in direction, particularly when disturbed.
- The ants use a formic acid to overpower and destroy prey very quickly.
They're known to build super colonies with several queens which can expand rapidly and in some cases double in size in just 12 months.
The NSW Department of Primary Industries' (NSW DPI) Invasive Species Programs manager Scott Charlton said they responded to an enquiry to their Invasive Plants and Animal Hotline two days ago.
"It's at an isolated property and it's a small infestation, we've been out there already to inspect a couple of times now," he said.
The samples of the ants were forwarded to the NSW DPI's laboratory in Orange and confirmed as yellow crazy ants.
"It's a private property, probably about three dwellings, and the ants were found near a retaining wall," Mr Charlton said.
"These ants are tramp ants — they're called that because they travel by human assistance.
"So anything humans carry with them they can potentially go on, they have preferences for timber and vegetation but we can't actually determine how they got there are this stage."
Yellow crazy ants move very quickly, build super colonies and are thought to be highly dangerous not only to crops and local ecosystems but also to humans and pets.
There been reports of the risk of blindness to humans or animals who get close to the ants, which can spray formic acid.
Yellow crazy ants have reportedly decimated native wildlife such as ground-dwelling birds and smaller insects in Queensland and in the 1990s were thought to have killed tens of millions of red land crabs on Christmas Island.
Movement restriction strategy
Following the latest outbreak at Terania Creek, Mr Charlton said the NSW DPI will continue to investigate and monitor for further presence of the ants.
"We'll interview the owners and make enquiries and search around the perimeter and other areas, but that will be part of a larger surveillance piece," he said.
The NSW DPI is now reviewing the movement restrictions put in force on June 1, under the NSW Biosecurity Act 2015, following the Lismore yellow crazy ant outbreak in early May.
The restrictions have prevented the movement of plant matter and soil within, into or from the restricted zone, for a five kilometre radius of the CBD, without a permit unless taken to the local tip, the Lismore Recycling and Recovery Centre.
"We're reviewing the current restrictions and immediately we'll place movement restrictions on the property, and that's our standard policy to do so," said Mr Charlton.
"It's probably too early to tell our overall movement restriction strategy, but we'll no doubt have to change and respond to new incursions as we go."
Baiting for eradication
The NSW DPI has taken steps to eradicate the yellow crazy ants at the Terania Creek site.
"They'll be baited with a similar treatment we've used at other places," he said.
"The response has been fairly positive so far, so we're quite happy with the uptake of the baits."
The DPI is also treating another site at Goonellabah as a "property of interest" following a report of possible yellow crazy ants.
"As yet we still have to get confirmation of a secondary sample of the ants from there," he said.
