Allowances worth $118 billion for four billion tons of carbon emissions changed hands worldwide in 2008, according to investor information firm New Carbon Finance, an increase of 42% in the number of transactions over 2007.
Higher trade volumes and prices resulted in an 84% year-on-year increase in market value in 2008, according to the research firm, which analyzes the world’s carbon markets.
The European Union Allowance (EUA) market accounted for 70% of carbon emissions trading volume and 80% of value in 2008. One EUA permits the emission of one ton of carbon dioxide or an amount of any other greenhouse gas of equal global warming potential during a specified period.

"I tell people that everybody likes good news and so if you have good performance that’s wonderful,” explains Mike McKitish of Peddie School's endowment, “but it’s the people that want to talk about the bad news or where they drifted and how they came back and how they stayed to their discipline…” that he wants to hear from.

Sometimes truth sounds like fictionPosted: November 8, 2011
“You know what my favorite sound is? It’s when you’re writing on a sheet of a paper on a glass paper and it’s like ‘chik chik chik’ and you can hear the individual pencil strokes.”
Someone said this to me yesterday, and I couldn’t help but thinking “I wish I had written that character.” It’s times like this that I have no qualms about my journalism and creative nonfiction majors. Sometimes life just needs to be written down.

Home appliances company Sunny penetrated the UK market and set up an office in the country this year, according to Adem Atmaca, Chairman of the Board of Atmaca Elektronik. The company cemented an agreement with Samsung during the pandemic to manufacture smart phones. Germany is on Sunny’s radar after the UK. “We have increased our domestic market share to 16% in the last three years. Nearly 30% of our
sales revenues were earned from abroad in 2020. We also increased our exports with sales to Italy and Greece from 17% to 30%,” Atmaca said. The company has a wide product range, from televisions and satellite receivers to small home appliances, which are manufactured under the Sunny brand. It exports to 42 countries and has a facility in Esenyurt Istanbul.

Endogenous ligand for APJ, an alternative coreceptor with CD4 for HIV-1 infection. Inhibits HIV-1 entry in cells coexpressing CD4 and APJ. Apelin-36 has a greater inhibitory activity on HIV infection than other synthetic apelin derivatives. The oral intake in the colostrum and the milk could have a role in the modulation of the immune responses in neonates. May also have a role in the central control of body fluid homeostasis by influencing AVP release and drinking behavior.
Expressed in the brain with highest levels in the frontal cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus and midbrain. Secreted by the mammary gland into the colostrum and the milk.
Belongs to the apelin family.
Several active peptides may be produced by proteolytic processing of the peptide precursor.
ab59469 (1:500) staining Apelin in human placenta using an automated system (DAKO Autostainer Plus). Using this protocol there is strong staining of cytoplasmic/secreted regions of cells in the basal uterine glands. Sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3 in 1 AR buffer EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 mins. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 min and detected with Dako envision flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that, for manual staining, optimization of primary antibody concentration and incubation time is recommended. Signal amplification may be required.

It’s been a busy couple of days in the small historic town of Brigus. The Blueberry Festival began with a parade that was short and sweet. These are the winners of Muff and Duff, the “Missed Blueberry” contest from last year (for men only).
A dancing troupe, who also entertained on stage the next day, danced down the street.
Fire Department trucks were there, of course.
And there were a few old cars, but nothing I consider antique, as well as some other entries. However, the town itself is very old, dating back to 1612. I love the old houses, some of which have whimsical names/signs, and many that are so close to the street they have to check traffic before opening the door. That’s because the houses were built before the streets.
The Hawthorne Cottage, home of Captain Robert Bartlett (see below for more about Capt. Bartlett), is here, and we plan to tour it tomorrow.
There was quite a variety of booths selling everything from food to quilts to novelties. Many involved blueberries, of course.
Don found a great gift for Susie to go with Denny’s ugly stick – a fish-shaped tambourine!
Denny got a new cap, free!
We listened to many hours of music from a variety of groups.
The dancing troupe danced.
A lot of people gathered under a big tent yesterday when the skies opened up and dumped rain for about an hour.
A river developed under our feet.
One woman took refuge in a washroom!
Volunteer firefighters came to our rescue and kept the tent from collapsing under the weight of water pooling in the tent. They couldn’t fix the hole in it, however.
These boys thought it was great fun to play in the rain!
This morning we had a breakfast of blueberry pancakes, bacon and sausage at the Recreation Centre. We had a nice conversation with a couple at our table. We soon learned that she is Marion Bartlett, closely related to the famous Captain Robert Abram “Bob” Bartlett who accompanied Robert Peary’s expeditions to the North Pole 1898-1909, and has possession of many artifacts of Capt. Bob’s.
She and her partner Dan invited us to her home a few blocks away to view the collection. The home is beautiful, and was formerly a restaurant. Marion bought it at auction, did some modifications to it, and lived there with her husband until his death. It is now her summer home.
I didn’t take any pictures of the inside out of respect for the integrity of the collection, but suffice it to say that I felt like I was in a museum. What a fine collection! I hope it will one day find its way to an appropriate archive.
Here are some views from the 2nd story deck in the back of the house. Too bad it was a little overcast today.
Thanks, Dan and Marion, for an interesting glimpse of history!

It’s time to dig our your ludicrously large suit, and brush up your best David Byrne dance moves. Because, as A24 is claiming (and frankly nobody is arguing), ‘the greatest concert movie of all time’ is coming back to cinemas. Yes, it’s 40 years since Stop Making Sense brought the immaculate vibes of the Talking Heads to the big screen, marshaled by none other than director Jonathan Demme – resulting in an all-time classic music movie. And to mark that anniversary, the film has been scrubbed up in 4K, and A24 is bringing it back to the big screen. Whether you love Talking Heads or not (let’s face it, you probably do), that’s a must-see cinema appointment. Watch the reissue trailer here.
The film, then, is… well, same as it ever was. But Stop Making Sense has lost none of its joy – or any of its sheer cool – in those 40 years since it debuted, and it’ll be a joy to see Byrne and co quite literally strut their stuff on the stage once more. The film was shot over three nights at the Pantages Theatre in Hollywood, with the Heads playing all of their greatest hits – ‘Burning Down The House’, ‘Once In A Lifetime’, ‘Psycho Killer’, ‘This Must Be The Place’, ‘Girlfriend Is Better’… what a setlist.
Best of all? You might be able to see this one in IMAX too. It’s receiving a ‘global IMAX Live event’ screening on 11 September to line up with the reissue’s world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), before receiving a wider IMAX release on 22 September. Then, the regular cinema format is rollout out in the UK on 29 September. Stop Making Sense? More like, start buying tickets. Cinema’s greatest party awaits.

Protests around the world have become historical and uniting. Inspired by the murder of a black man, George Floyd, men and women of all races, creeds, and colors are marching together protesting against police brutality and demanding legal reform in nations across the planet.
Sadly, I’ve been reading this morning about more brutality by law enforcement in the city where it all started, Minneapolis, and in others including Los Angeles, Seattle, and New York.
In one of my recent articles I admitted that I no longer trust law enforcement. I am an old, white man and generally have nothing to fear. However, the stories I read every day offer proof that I have “white privilege.” The purpose of law enforcement today does not fit their slogan, “to protect and serve.”
I never thought about this when I was growing up in Los Angeles in the 1950’s and 60’s. That is until I left Catholic school before my junior year in high school. Venice High was a racially mixed school in my youth. After I became friends with some young black men who were on my basketball team, I learned there are two Americas; one for whites and one for black men and women. The only difference in 2020 is that everyone has a camera, and cameras don’t lie.
After I began writing in 2011, I discovered even more racist action by the entire legal system.
- In 2014, African Americans constituted 2.3 million, or 34%, of the total 6.8 million correctional population.
- African Americans are incarcerated at more than 5 times the rate of whites.
- The imprisonment rate for African American women is twice that of white women.
- Nationwide, African American children represent 32% of children who are arrested,
42% of children who are detained, and 52% of children whose cases are judicially
waived to criminal court.
- Though African Americans and Hispanics make up approximately 32% of the US
population, they comprised 56% of all incarcerated people in 2015.
- If African Americans and Hispanics were incarcerated at the same rates as whites,
prison and jail populations would decline by almost 40%.
With only four percent of the world’s population, America has 25 percent of all men and women incarcerated in the world. More than 2.3 million Americans are in our nation’s jails and prisons. Possibly the most frightening statistic is that the United States has the highest recidivism rate in the world. Punishment is the priority, not rehabilitation.
When Ivanka Trump’s commencement speech was canceled at WSU Tech, she began to whine. The reason given for rescinding her invitation is her father’s open racism and refusal to address our nation as protests continue to grow.
“Our nation’s campuses should be bastions of free speech. Cancel culture and viewpoint discrimination are antithetical to academia. Listening to one another is important now more than ever!”
First, this is not a “free speech” issue for Ivanka. She is not a guest speaker at a rally, she was given an undeserved honor. Uninviting her was the right of the university and the graduating students.
Most importantly is the fact that she marched with her fascist father through Lafayette Park to St. John’s Episcopal Church. Leading the procession, whose only purpose was to take a photograph, were police and military. Trump wanted to remove the crowd and ordered the heavily armed gestapo to fire rubber bullets into the crowd, and explode tear gas canisters. This was the most egregious violation of the first amendment rights of hundreds of peaceful protesters I have witnessed in my entire life. The closest example would be the tragedy at Kent State in the 1960’s in opposition to the Vietnam War. I was appalled, greatly saddened, and angry. If I had ever considered voting for Trump, this ended on that day. He is not an American, and cannot be allowed to remain in our White House. Fascists are not welcome in my America.

So what happens when one gets married? Do we create new rituals, blend two different sets or try and find compromises? And is it even more difficult when one marries into a different culture?
James Baxter, an Australian writer, journalist and film maker confronted this very issue when he moved from Los Angeles to Paris to live with his Parisian girlfriend, whom he later married. Not only did he have to cope with adapting to French life but he also did the unthinkable by taking over responsibility for cooking Christmas dinner for his new extended French family.
An Immoveable Feast is Baxter’s third volume of autobiography, following on from A Pound of Paper: Confessions of a Book Addict and We’ll Always Have Paris: Sex and Love in the City of Lights. It tells the story of his family life in France, based around preparations for his Christmas dinner and how he is trying to impress his family by introducing new dishes to the meal without moving too far away from the kind of repast that French culinary tradition would demand at Christmas. Let’s just say that he serves up Cajun spit roast suckling pig.
An Immoveable Feast is an easy and inoffensive read. There’s the requisite amount of gastro-porny description of French food and the sourcing of his dinner and sufficient Parisian atmosphere to create the sense of the different that the “foreigner living abroad” genre of books would require. Ultimately, however, it is a little bit “meh”, a little bit insubstantial and a little bit pointless. I suspect part of my reaction may be because I hadn’t realised that it was a volume of autobiography as well as a book about food. I’m not a big fan of memoirs by “ordinary” people. If I am reading biography or autobiography, I tend to need it to be about someone of real significance in their field. I am not criticising Baxter here, I appreciate that he is a successful writer and probably a very nice chap, it’s just that I’m not that interested in his story.
I am, however, very interested in food (Mrs Falaise would say, too interested) and food writing. And therein lies the nub. There was not enough about the food or about French Christmas eating habits and rather too much about how his family and how he learned to cook as a young man in Australia to impress the girls. It doesn’t make it a bad book, just not quite what I thought I was getting.
I don’t know if I would have had a different reaction to it if I had read his other autobiographical pieces first or if I had come to the book with different expectations but I didn’t really connect with it. It would pass a couple of harmless hours but, in all honesty, there are many other books that would do the job better and leave more of an impression, at least in my opinion.
As for tomorrow’s post, well you’d better watch out, you’d better beware, ‘cos Terry Pratchett’s Hogfather is coming to town.

How many times have you replaced your planter hitch – just the part that bolts onto the tongue and then fits over the drawbar on the tractor? No, it's not a trick question. Pete Illingworth, a mechanic at the Throckmorton Purdue University Ag Center, tries to keep their planter in top shape. One of the things he did this year was buy a new hitch.
"It's surprising to see how much wear you can have on a hitch after a few years and not realize it," he says. "I didn't realize the old hitch was worn as much as it was until I bought a replacement and put the two side by side. Then I could see that the pin through the hitch and drawbar had caused a great deal of wear over the years."
Illingworth hopes replacing the hitch that bolts to the planter tongue will eliminate some slop that was occurring because of the wear. He also wonders if it will affect how level the planter runs. He uses a level to check to see if the planter main frame is level once he is operating in the field.
Those who put on planter clinics say one of the keys to uniform planting depth and even emergence is a level tongue, leading to a level mainframe. Otherwise the pitch of the planter either forward or backward can affect whether or not the planting depth on all the row units is uniform or not. Experts say it's one of the easiest things to check, and yet often overlooked. The true test is when it is operating in the field, not on the driveway during testing before the season starts.
Illingworth goes through the entire planter routinely and replaces parts once they have enough wear that he believes they are impacting the performance of the planter. This year that included the hitch.


After nearly a month of on and off rain, we are really starting to feel it here in Austin. As I was driving in this morning, listening to Fox & Friends, Doocey reported that there were "fast-water rescues" happening here in Austin! statesman.com is reporting:
The rainfall has led to widespread road flooding and closures, and forecasters warn that flooding will continue as waterways flush the heavy rainfall from their systems. Austin-Travis County EMS officials report that several swift-water rescues are in progress, and that there are "multiple reports of persons trapped in fast moving water atop vehicles, on roof tops, or clinging to trees."
The weather page on statesman.com appears to be a good source of information on road closures and general Austin weather. The Austin-Travis County EMS website has a press release up that they have been updating throughout the morning.

By Benny Carrillo / June 19th, 2017
Harvest Moon is a franchise that while simple, does have a bit of a high barrier to entry if you think about it. For one, you need to know how to read. Secondly, a basic understanding of how a farm works and animal care is a plus. Finally, you do need some basic understanding of economics. As a veteran of the Harvest Moon 64 days I can attest we made spreadsheets plotting what crop would net us the most gold per season. What this all really boils down to is that for as “simple” as Harvest Moon is, it still requires someone to either be at the age where they start to enjoy RPGs or have a parent play along to assist in explaining things. Simply put, Mario this isn’t. You can’t expect a 4 or 5-year old to pick up Harvest Moon and enjoy it, until now.
Harvest Moon Lil’ Farmers is a title that’s designed with a young audience in mind. Namely around 2-6 years old. This is meant as an introduction to the franchise and some of the basic ideas surrounding it. That means that while certain things will be familiar, a lot of things go right out the window. For one there is no text in this game, and I mean none. You do not need any sort of reading skills to play this. Instead, you’ll rely on context clues to perform actions. For example, if you want to shear a sheep you’ll be given the sheep on screen and the shears. Simply drag the shears to the sheep and hold over the wool. This brings us to our next point, there’s no economy or relationships.
That’s right, you aren’t here to make money or find your true love. As I said this is pretty much the franchise condensed down to its very core, which is the caring of livestock and the growing of produce. While things like this are second nature to us adults, kids are still figuring this stuff out. Hey, when you were five did you really understand the concept of profits or that giving the pretty girl over there an egg was better than fresh milk? Probably, not and that’s where Lil’ Farmers excels.
Lil’ Farmers is based around the idea of doing repetitive tasks, which it does pretty well. The first time you boot up the game, you’ll be taken through a tutorial of sorts. The game will lead you to each area of the farm and have you perform a singular task. Once done, you’ll head back to the main hub and onto the next task. Repeat until you have access to everything on the farm. From there, things do get a bit more complicated.
While there is no economy, you still can give things to the people who show up at your farm. However, you need to produce those things. If they want certain vegetables you’ll have to grow them. If they want yarn, you need to go sheer a sheep, etc. Yes, it’s very simple, but again try and remember the target audience here. Most kids enjoy being able to accomplish things on their own, which is this goal of this game. It’s meant to teach them cause-and-effect and how to perform repetitive tasks. Once again think back to your childhood or even to your younger siblings. How often did they want to show off that they could do something on their own? Thankfully Harvest Moon Lil’ Farmers understands its target audience well and even understands it’s price point.
Harvest Moon Lil’ Farmers will run you $3.99 and does not feature any in-app purchases. That’s right, there’s no chance you accidentally end up with $1000 worth of tokens or in-game currency here. Simply purchase the game, open it, and hand your device to your child. I would still recommend sitting with them however at least through the tutorial in case they do have any questions. What I’m not as sure about is how long this will keep their interest, as that is something that will vary from child-to-child. Four dollars though isn’t much to ask for an afternoon of playtime. At the least, I don’t regret paying the $4 to capture images for this write-up.
Harvest Moon Lil’ Farmers is available now for iOS and Android devices.

Skanska has opened its fifth office building in Wroclaw. The 18,000 sqm Green2Day complex’s tenants include KPMG, Ultimo, Tieto, Natek and Enel-Med. The Business Link, a coworking network, is also establishing a branch in the building.
One of the most active developers of Prague’s office market is ready to embrace the digital transformation and is actively looking at new projects and new locations. Alexandra Tomášková, Managing Director of Skanska Property Czech Republic talked to Property Forum about changing tenant needs, digitisation and market expectations.
Skanska has sold Mill Park, a two-building office project in Budapest, to the real estate fund of Erste Alapkezelő Zrt., one of the subsidiaries of Erste Asset Management GmbH, for €100 million. This is the second acquisition from Skanska in Budapest that the purchaser has made following the Nordic Light transaction in 2016.
Skanska has acquired the 61-meter Waterworks office building in Budapest. The developer is demolishing the 26,000 sqm office building which dates from 1981. Later on, Skanska plans to develop a modern, visionary office complex in the same location.
Office developers have for years been struggling with the speed of new technologies. While the innovation cycle in high tech lasts for around 18 months, the development process for office buildings still takes around five years. To ensure tenants and users have easy access to new solutions, Skanska has created an all-in-one operating system for office buildings and workplaces, which can be upgraded over time just like a smartphone.
Skanska has invested €52 million in the first phase of an office development in Wrocław, Poland. The first phase with a total leasable area of around 26,000 square meters will consist of two buildings, 15 and six stories high, with a shared two-level underground parking lot.
With the purchase of the Visionary office building in Prague, CA Immo and Skanska have successfully signed and closed the second transaction between the two companies in the CEE region in 2018. The gross transaction volume is approx. €68 million.
Skanska’s commercial development unit in CEE has announced the appointment of Alexandra Tomášková as Managing Director for Skanska Property Czech Republic. She will begin in her new role from June 1st 2018, and will also become a member of Skanska CEE’s commercial development unit Management Team.
CA Immo has acquired Campus 6.1 office building in Bucharest from Skanska; the transaction volume is approx. €53 million. The closing of the transaction is subject to the conditions usual for such transactions and is expected by the end of 2018.
Skanska has sold the Green2Day building in Wroclaw, Poland, to the real estate fund manager Niam. It is the developer’s fifth office project in the city with its sixth – Nowy Targ – currently under construction.
108 Agency Slovakia has secured a lease of 5,300 sqm for RajHračiek in ANTRACIT Park Senec, a built-to-suit project by HSF. RajHračiek is a fast-growing online store offering a wide selection of toy brands for children.
Contract Administration as a result of the renegotiation of the lease agreement, remains in the premises of the West Forum complex in Wrocław. The Lessor, represented by TFG Asset Management, was supported in the process by the consulting agency Corees Polska.
Uni-logistics, which specializes in sea, rail and air freight forwarding and road transport, has leased 5,825 sqm of warehouse and office space in Panattoni Park Tricity East VI in Poland. Real estate advisory firm Cresa Poland assisted the tenant during negotiations.
Paweł Suracki joined Colliers as the Investment Services Director. He will be responsible for managing sales and purchasing processes on behalf of Colliers' clients and for establishing and maintaining relationships with potential and current Colliers' partners in Poland.
Avison Young has announced a key change to its directors’ team in Budapest with the arrival of Martina Cifer at the helm of its Office Leasing department. In her new capacity, she shall oversee both the company's Landlord and Tenant Representation divisions.
Łukasz Czajkowski joins the team of JLL Poland as Business Services Lead in Tenant Representation Department. He will be responsible for enhancing relations with the BSS sector.
Property Forum is a leading event hub in the CEE real estate industry with nearly 10 years of experience. We organise conferences, business breakfasts and workshops focused on real estate, in London, Vienna, Budapest, Bucharest, Bratislava and Prague, amongst other locations.

Life can be challenging for all of us. All the more reason to take a deep breath, pause, and think before speaking to ensure that our words honor diverse opinions and backgrounds.
Information is important at all levels from donors to organizational decision-makers. That’s why you’ll see our independent audits, IRS 990s, and other documents available for review on our website.

Biokido was founded by 4 entrepreneurs with the mission of contributing to the efficiency and effectiveness of the healthcare industry by using artificial intelligence. Three of the co-founders have more than 20 years experience in the sector, and more specifically in distribution, sales and management. The fourth co-founder has worked on deep learning and artificial intelligence for more than 10 years both academically and professionally. As a result, they have been able to identify problems within the sector and develop specific solutions tailored to addressing the problem. Their last product is a good example: They identified that the need for the use of digital images and auxiliary software during surgery is increasing as the technology develops. Thus, Biokido developed DORA Motion, which is a medical device that allows the surgeon to access the desired information which includes the patient's radiological images. Auxiliary software allows for simple hand movements without touching the mouse and keyboard while maintaining a sterile environment. The product can also be connected to other computers and mouse-controlled devices so that the surgeon can control the devices without physical contact. Informative videos about DORA Motion can be found on their YouTube channel.
Biokido's main innovation is DORA Motion, an AI medical device that enables surgeons to access and easily manipulate patient images and information with only a few hand movements without touching any surface: it enables sterilised access to digital files and auxiliary software during surgery. A demo of DORA Motion can be found on their YouTube channel. Additional innovations include:

The number of lightning strikes has increased by over 37% between April 2020 and March 2021 as compared to the previous corresponding year, according to a study conducted by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) and Down to Earth. 18.5 million strikes were reported this year, a significant increase from 13.8 million last year.
The study has attributed an increase in the number and frequency of lightning strikes in the country to climate change and unplanned urbanization. Data revealed that over 1,697 people died in the country between April 2020 and May 2021 after getting hit by a lightning bolt. Recently, on June 11, 11 tourists visiting the Amer Fort in Rajasthan became victims of the natural phenomena. In fact, over 100 people have died in northern India since the onset of the monsoon this year, according to a report by India Today.
According to Down to Earth magazine’s editor Richard Mahapatra, the increased pace of urbanization and population growth has intensified the danger of humans getting exposed to lightning.
Scientists have also found a strong link between forest fires and increased lightning strikes. Research conducted on the concentration of cloud condensation (CCN) in the central Himalayas found that CCN was 5 times higher during forest fires as compared to rains. “Researchers in Australia linked excess CCN to the increased number of lightning strikes during the 2019-20 Australia forest fires,” says Kiran Pandey, program director at CSE.
In order to mitigate the damage caused by lightning strikes, Pandey emphasized the need to create awareness among citizens. He advised that if the duration between lightning and thunder is less than 30 seconds, people must take refuge indoors for up to 30 minutes after the last flash is seen.
The Indian Meteorological Department(IMD) has now started to issue lightning forecasts and a Lightning India Resilient Campaign has also been launched by the Indian government. Arguing that the seasonality of lightning strikes differs across regions, Pandey also recommends decentralization of predictions and risk management.

Int.: Robert Mitchum, Johnny Depp, Benicio del Toro, Polly Bergen, Brenda Vaccaro, Marianne Faithfull, Rickie Lee Jones, Doctor John, Carrie Mitchum, Cindy Azbill, Jack O’Halloran. DCP. D.: 68’. Bn e Col.
In 1991 iconic photographer and filmmaker Bruce Weber set out to make a portrait of legendary actor and original Hollywood ‘bad boy’ Robert Mitchum. Twenty-six years later the filmmaker Bruce Weber had made a musical, featuring Robert Mitchum singing jazz standards along with Rickie Lee Jones, Marianne Faithfull and Doctor John, among a few other adventures with a great cast of characters and admirers like Polly Bergen and Johnny Depp. The film is a rare and intimate glimpse into the world of one of Hollywood’s greatest actors. Replete with stories of another time, plenty of duets, a lot of laughter – and some tears – it is a madcap and loving tribute to the actor.
A famous actor once told me that one of the best performances he’d ever seen was Bob Mitchum during a dinner party. In making a portrait of Bob, I tried to show the man who made over 130 movies and still wanted us to believe that he just didn’t care. Bob was very well-read and wrote poetry, which comes as a surprise to most people, who can only see him as the original tough guy who made war movies and Westerns.
This is how the project began – our film was initially inspired by a book Bob wrote with his brother John called Them Ornery Mitchum Boys. Then, with the help of Dr. John, Marianne Faithfull and Rickie Lee Jones, it became a musical. But as we continued filming, I realized that my film was really about an aging sex symbol, who happened to be a man – instead of the usual Marilyn Monroe story that we’re so used to reading about in books and magazines.
Bob didn’t like to talk about the early days because he had run away from home ten times before he was fifteen, had been in prison, and was on a chain gang in Georgia. Like most male actors who had come of age at that time, he had a problem communicating when he wasn’t in wardrobe and makeup. I think that my film tries to show through interviews, music and archival footage of Bob’s old films, the struggle that one has when you spend your entire life still trying to run away from home.

There were bongos, maracas, wooden blocks and a drum. But what really made the first Drum Circle at Addams Junior High School in Schaumburg a memorable event were the garbage can, copper pots, paint bucket and even tap dancers that added original sounds.
About 90 children, moms and dads participated in the event sponsored by the Friends of the Gifted, a group for children who are identified as gifted in Community Consolidated School District 54.
Drum Circle participants create and share a rhythmical and a musical experience. It's not about becoming a drummer but using drums as a means of communication, music and celebration, said John Yost of Chicago, a nationally recognized drum facilitator who ran the event.
"The most amazing thing about drum circles is anybody can do it," said parent Todd McCagg of Streamwood. "I played a 10-gallon paint bucket with drum sticks. I thought it made a great sound."
"It was amazing how you could bring a variety of instruments together and make such beautiful music," said Mary Mastenbrook of Schaumburg, one of the drum circle coordinators.
For parent Bill Goffinski of Hoffman Estates, the event was a place to relieve some tension. Goffinski, who played a plastic garbage can, said, "This was an extension of the beating of my heart. It uplifted me and calmed my spirit."

Cost of living increase benign?
Bollocks. Electricity has gone through the roof over here - South Australia now has the most expensive electricity on the PLANET. Not only that, but housing prices have also exploded, to the point where a normal suburban home will set you back around half a million dollars. Rents have increased accordingly. Most working class people are now spending more than the recommended third of their income on housing because of the insane property prices in this country. and these increased costs have had a flow-on effect to everything else.
Basic foodstuffs have remained relatively stable, as have consumer electronics, although how I don't know, considering petrol, energy, housing and everything else have gone nuts over here.

This mini-album, Just JeA, is being billed as the solo debut of JeA, leader of the insanely popular K-pop girl group Brown Eyed Girls. And it is her first album or mini-album. But she's actually contributed various solo tracks to soundtracks during recent years, including "Geudae Babo" ("You Fool") for Padam Padam, "Because Of You" for History of a Salaryman, "Mia" for Chuno and "Poison" for The Fugitive: Plan B.
Just JeA opens with "Days & Nights," a duet with none other than the famous R&B singer Eric Benet. And you could definitely call this song R&B, but it's also something of a genre-bender featuring sexy Spanish guitar and percussion on top of its uber-heavy beat, which could have just as easily been used for a pop or hip-hop song. It starts off with JeA singing in Korean, her voice sweet and sultry. Eric's smooth-as-ever vocals first appear during the bridge, which they sing together: "and I can't help that I'm in love with you, I'll never love again like we did then." They continue singing together for the oh-so-passionate chorus, which is mostly in English, though Eric's voice is significantly louder in the mix. For the next verse, it alternates between JeA singing a line in Korean and Eric singing a line in English. The two definitely have chemistry, resulting in a very seductive song and it's easy to imagine them performing it live on Dancing With The Stars or the like.
"I'm a kitty on the street," JeA sings during the second track, " 길고양이" (translation: "Street Cats"), delivering one hell of a hook. It's a very fun mid-tempo song that blends everything from upright bass to piano to acoustic guitars to fingers snapping. Genre-wise, it's impossible to peg down. It has moments where it sounds like jazz and moments where it sounds like funk, among other things.
Next up is "그대가 잠든 사이" (translation: "While You Were Sleeping"), an epic song that begins with some mellow piano and JeA singing oh-so-softly. It quickly becomes intense with sweeping strings and JeA really opening up her voice. The impressive arrangement also features layers of backing vocals and an electric guitar solo, calling to mind none other than Queen. To that end, JeA hits Freddie Mercury caliber high notes time and time again throughout the dazzling song.
The silky R&B ballad "Let's Hug," a duet with Jung Yup, follows. It's something of a retro track, calling to mind the R&B sound of the '70's. While it is endearing and a solid song in its own right, it pales compared to "Days & Nights," but then most R&B songs would pale in comparison to that powerhouse.
The mini-album concludes with the edgy song "Silent Stalker" featuring Double K. It has some potent beats, as well as some crunchy guitars, but the vocals dominate throughout most of the song. "Believe me, I'm in love, I'm in love with you," JeA sings super passionately -- and in a slightly creepy manner -- while Double K expresses his lack of interest in the background. (He also gets his own verses in the song, making it sure to please his fans as much as JeA's.) I would have to say it's the most intense song about stalking I've ever heard and it's also my favorite track here. -Michael McCarthy

Editorial on the Research Topic
Regulators of a Regulator: Post-Transcriptional Regulation in Tregs
In the last 20 years, an enormous body of evidence has demonstrated critical roles of a unique subset of CD4 T cells, so-called regulatory T cells (Tregs), in maintaining immunological self-tolerance by actively suppressing aberrant immune responses. The multiple functional properties of Tregs target a variety of immune cells through a range of potent suppressive mechanisms. Moreover, it has also become clear that rather than being a homogeneous population, Tregs can undergo functional specialization in response to different environmental clues, allowing them to control local inflammation in a given tissue microenvironment. While numerous studies have established Foxp3 act as a master molecular regulator that orchestrates a transcriptional program that governs the differentiation and function of Tregs, mounting evidence has also demonstrated a crucial role of post-transcriptional mechanisms in controlling multiple aspects of Treg biology.
A series of recent contributions in Frontiers in Immunology have addressed post-transcriptional and post-translational mechanisms of regulating Treg development, homeostasis, activation, lineage stability, and suppressive function. In the mini-review “Effects of Non-Coding RNA on Regulatory T Cells and Implications for Treatment of Immunological Diseases”, Luo and Wang provide a comprehensive overview of individual non-coding RNAs that control Treg homeostasis and suppressive function. Non-coding RNAs, including microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs, were once considered “junk” genetic material, but extensive efforts in the last decade have revealed that key non-coding RNAs are indispensable in the generation and function of Tregs. To this end, Kunze-Schumacher and Krueger provide a broad overview of how microRNAs influence Treg development and function in their mini-review, “The Role of MicroRNAs in Development and Function of Regulatory T Cells – Lessons for a Better Understanding of MicroRNA Biology”. The network of microRNAs and their targets are extremely complex. Kunze-Schumacher and Krueger discuss miRNA-target relationships in detail, including context-dependent function and the roles of individual targets vs. complex co-targeting networks.
RNA modification, also called “RNA epigenetics” is another attractive area of research on post-transcriptional regulation. Among these modifications, RNA methylation is particularly common and abundant. With the identification of the important “writer”, “eraser” and “reader” enzymes that reversibly mediate methylation, the functions of RNA methylation in T cells, including Tregs, are now being elucidated. In their mini-review entitled “Multiple Functions of RNA Methylation in T Cells: A Review”, Chao et al. provide a detailed summary of recent progress in uncovering the effects of four major forms of RNA methylation (m6A, m6Am, m1A, and m5C) on T cell function.
Finally, two articles have provided insights on post-translational regulation in Tregs. In original research entitled “Mouse Double Minute 2 Homolog-Mediated Ubiquitination Facilitates Forkhead Box P3 Stability and Positively Modulates Human Regulatory T Cell Function”, Wang et al. demonstrated that mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2), an E3 ubiquitin ligase of p53, also interacts with Foxp3 and unexpectedly stabilizes Foxp3 expression. Dong et al. focus on post-translational regulation of Foxp3 in their review entitled “Post-Translational Regulations of Foxp3 in Treg cells and Their Therapeutic Applications” and provide detailed lists of Foxp3 binding patterns and post-translational modifications and their potential function in regulating Foxp3 function and plasticity.
This series of Research Topics provides an extensive update on post-transcriptional and post-translational regulation in Tregs. A deeper understanding of these molecular and cellular mechanisms that control Treg development and function would undoubtedly provide unique opportunities to treat not only various autoimmune diseases but also other immunological disorders.

In her Maine Voices piece on March 13, Katherine Merseth scolded Portland Mayor Michael Brennan for not supporting the creation of Baxter Academy, a proposed charter school that would be located in Portland.
Charter schools are publicly funded schools that are run privately. Public schools, on the other hand, are funded through our tax dollars but are run by publicly elected school boards. Public schools are a cornerstone of American democracy.
Dr. Merseth is correct in stating that our mayor should be aggressively working to expand high-quality opportunities for all students.
However, Mayor Brennan should (and does) show that support through our public school system, not through a system that has no input from our democratically elected leaders and our voters.
To promote a charter system as a means to improve education for all students is a folly. Portland’s public school district has a proven track record of improving educational opportunities in Portland (such as Casco Bay High School, a success notably absent from Dr. Merseth’s editorial), and should be encouraged to continue to do so.
Instead of scolding our publicly elected mayor for not supporting a private, anti-democratic “fix” to our public schools, perhaps Dr. Merseth should support school reform that honors local knowledge and control.
Charter schools do not do better, on average, than public schools, but they do manage to take away public control and put it in the hands of private citizens and corporations, ones that have a very different bottom line than our public schools.
I applaud our mayor for standing up to attempts to privatize public education and keeping our public schools just that: public.


[Continua da qui]
“The order of combat is given, to the streets the revolutionaries …”. With this parole, Miguel Mario Diaz-Canel Bermúdez, president of Cuba, as well as “primer secretary” of the Communist Party, concluded “en vivo y en directo” in full “prime time” on Sunday 11 July, his very solemnly announced speech-appeal to the Nation.
In the streets, the echo of a protest still resounded which, started quietly in that of San Antonio de los Baños, about thirty kilometers west of the capital, it had spread rapidly, like the famous one iskrá, spark, of Leninian memory, at every ravine of the prairie. Cuba was on fire. Or rather: it was swept by a wave of protests which had never been seen along the sixty and more years of a revolution that continues to be called this despite being – for a very long time now – but the defense of an authoritarian status quo and of the myth of itself.
In the name of this revolution Diaz-Canel had spoken. And it really could not have been, in his address, any more martially dramatic and, at the same time, more flatly traditional. Martially dramatic because precisely this – a very martial appeal to combat, or civil war – was unequivocally his speech. And flatly traditional because his words did not deviate an inch from the basic idea that has always marked the relationship between the revolutionary government and any form of dissent.
Basically: those who protest – and whatever the reasons for the protest – is a enemy of the fatherland, a puppet manipulated by imperialism or, at best, an asocial, a criminal. And anyway, he’s a mercenary, a hired tool of the “bloqueo criminal”, of the embargo with which imperialism is, recently “growing”, trying to strangle Cuba. There is nothing to see or understand (if not, precisely, the evidence of a heterodirect counter-revolutionary plot) in what is happening. There is no voice to listen to, or any need to attend to. There is only to hit. And it is with this aim, to strike, that “los revolucionarios” – that is to say: the so-called “Black berets” of the special forces, plus the complex of the capillary social organizations of Castroism, plus the enormous mass of state employees – more or less spontaneously went down “a la calle” to regain the lost square.
Have they succeeded? Difficult to answer. In the avalanche of images that are circulating on the net – in that network which, as underlined in a previous post, was the real multiplying force of the protest – it is very often difficult to distinguish between the true and the false. There are pro-government demonstrations mistaken for protests and vice versa. There are solidarity marches that run through the streets of Miami, presented as demonstrations in Cuban locations. As always there is, on the net, everything and more. A “more” that, often, is a little, or a lot, less than the truth. But two things, it seems to me, can already be said.
The first is that, however widespread (tamed or not) the protests of these days have been and are, we are not – to use an expression dear to the Doc anti-Castroists, those who, for many decades, on the other side of the Strait of Florida, every midnight on December 31st they toast with an “el proximo año a la Havana” – in front of the “right time”. Or at least not yet. The two pillars of the regime – the single party and the armed forces – still remain solidly standing. And – if, as always, it is not easy to calculate the real consensus enjoyed by the regime – it certainly remains standing the entire apparatus of repression. All with an addition: it is precisely the spontaneity of the manifestations of these hours, without a recognizable leadership, the element that, paradoxically, best guarantees the continuity of the government that accuses them of being the fruit of a diabolical, well foraged and well organized conspiracy.
The second thing – diametrically opposed – is that, although it is not yet “the right time” (or the bad time), and however much the shock force of the protest may have faded, the riots of 11 July have definitively changed one of the most tested paradigms of Cuban politics. Repression has always had a nature throughout the sixty years of the revolution “Preventive”, the purpose of which was, precisely, to avoid the descent into the streets of the protest or the need for recourse to violence. Or, if you prefer, repression was a recourse to violence practiced in a fragmented and widespread form, widespread, anticipated, precautionary and precautionary.
The shame of Umap – military production support units, in fact forced labor camps – was born, in the 1960s, on the basis of these principles. It was on the basis of these principles that dissidents, homosexuals, practicing Catholics or, simply, young people refractory to the rhetoric of the regime ended up in the Umap. And it was on this basis that, later, a law was promulgated, still fully in force, known as the “ley de peligrosidad predelictiva” which allows convict for crimes which are supposed to be committed by the “offender” in the future. Starting from what, “is it supposed”? Starting, of course, from the system of mutual spying installed in every corner of social life. In the workplace, in the family, through an infiltration system revealed over the years – someone remembers the very sad process of “Black spring” in 2003? – very petty, but extraordinary effectiveness.
This is what the protests that shake Cuba tell us. People are in the streets. The times of “prevention” and fear are over and a new era has begun against the backdrop of a pandemic, a very deep economic crisis and of the obsolescent, inconsistent and unjust, but permanent presence of the embargo. All themes that, due to their importance, deserve a separate post.

Robotic Process Automation
I have followed the below steps to configure the robot virtual machine with PEGA. But if the VM registartion is successfull , it will generate operator id. But i am not getting it even after followed all the below steps for VM registration with PEGA7.2.1.
Created Operator id.
Assigned access group to that operator id and also assigned role “PEGARULES:RoboticAdministrator”.
Configured robot work baskets and workgroups
Configured access group for workgroup.
Configured heart beat interval
Configured robot queue shape in flow with the workbasket and automation.
Edited the runtimeConfig.xml file as <MenuItem item="RPACredentials" label="Enter RPA Credentials..." show="true" />
Created automation in PEGA robotic studio. Then I just did solution up by clicking the “Start Debug” option . So run time is up and we will able to call automation from the PEGA.
Right Click on studio run time icon and provided RPA credentials.
10. Right click on project name and select properties .given robot queue name to my workgroup name.
Ran the automation from PEGA. So that Virtual machine will get registered with PEGA7 and will generate new operator id .(But here we are not getting this even if I follow all the above steps).
**Moderation Team has archived post**
This post has been archived for educational purposes. Contents and links will no longer be updated. If you have the same/similar question, please write a new post.
The Robotic Activities within the automation will not fire if you are running your solution in Studio. You need to run the Runtime as a stand-alone to actually test your solution. This was done to allow the developer to test his solution within Studio from another source and not depleting the work basket queue.
Steps to test:
Create a deployment package using studio
If you are testing on a Studio system: Navigate to the installation folder for Studio and double-click on the OpenSpan.Runtime.exe. This will launch the Runtime as a stand-alone application
Right click on the Runtime Icon in the Tray and set the RPA Credentials
If this is the first time you are setting the RPA Credentials Stop the Runtime and restart it
Right Click on the Runtime Icon and select "load local project"
Select your deployment package you created in step 1


replace the current license list facility with a new batch agent to generate report and store as a file
|Assignee:||larry shi||% Done:||
It looks like this needs some more clarification.
Use an agent (a license list module) for the background process.
Having an agent write to report_cache isn't a good idea. The report_cache is just that, a report cache, not a repository for scan results.
Let me recap:
1) we can't create and display a license list in real time because:
1.1) it takes too long to generate the list for more than a few thousand files. I think this is mostly due to resolving the file path names.
1.2) it takes too long to send and render more than a few thousand lines in a browser.
This means that we have to either do it batch or do small lists in real time and larger ones batch. For simplicity of the UI, I vote for doing them all batch. Hence, we need a license list module, agent, and UI.
[larry] that means we will add a new module ./src/licenselist, include agents and ui, right?
2.2) When the user clicks on "License List", queue the job, display the job link, but leave the user on the license browser page. This may be best done with a popup.
[larry] my suggestion is: when the user click on “License List”
a) If the list is already created, just stay in the [browse] page (looks like /repo/?mod=browse&upload=4&folder=1&item=3&show=detail), the default page when you click on a package, then download the list automatically.
b) If the list is not created, queue the job, leave the user on the job page(looks like /repo/?mod=showjobs&show=job&job=1).
c) Do not popup any window. The user can check if the job is done via the mail notification or check the job status manually.
You have to tell the user that the job was queued.
3) Where should the agent store the license list?
I recommend a new repo section "licenselist". A side effect of this is that delagent needs to remove the list.
[larry] one license list file looks like /srv/fossology/repository/ licenselist/uploadtree_pk.txt
Don't use the uploadtree_pk by itself. Upload tree's can have different license lists if done with different versions of the nomos.
We will save the license list info in report_cache,
The key is the job link, looks like: /repo/?mod=showjobs&show=job&job=1
The value is the license list file, looks like: /srv/fossology/repository/ licenselist/uploadtree_pk.txt
No. The report_cache table is to cache reports, not save filenames. The licenselist_ars table would contain enough information to find the file in the repo.
4) How does a user know when the job is done?
4.1) The usual, scheduler email notification or user manually checks. See the email from earlier today on email notification. The license list agent needs to include a link to the results (see UI below). This link will download the results.
5) What does the license list UI do?
There are two parts to the UI, one is to process the link when someone clicks on "license list". This code should look to see if a list has already been generated and if it has, download the file to the user. We already have a common function to handle downloads. If the list hasn't been generated, it queues the license list agent.

- Subject changed from replace the current license list facility with a new batch agent to generate list and store as a file to replace the current license list facility with a new batch agent to generate report and store as a file
- Description updated (diff)
In our meeting tonight, Larry asked for clarification of the enhancement description. Specifically, "2.2 When the user clicks on "License List", queue the job, display the job link, but leave the user on the license browser page." He noted that "License List" is on the Browse page not License Browser, and asks Bob to confirm.

1) I still can not understand what will be stored into report_cache? what is the report_cache_key? what is the report_cache_value?
2) what time will begin to run licenselist agent,
promptly when you click on [license list] sub-menu?
or wait for more than a fixed time(e.g. 10s) when you click on [license list] sub-menu?
3) when you click on [license list] sub-menu, if take more than a fixed time, will begin to run licenselist agent, then popup one window to download the license list report, do not display the license list report on UI (original behavior), correct?
4) if you have to wait for a fixed time, how about use fo_nomos_license_list from command line to get the license list report?
you always have to wait for a fixed time at the 1st time, certainly if you want get the same license list report at the 2nd time, create on licenselist agent is useful.
create new licenselist module, my draft estimate is >40 points.
So besides the solution creating a new licenselist module, one simple proposal is:
when you click on [license list] sub-menu, if wait for more than a fixed time, pop up one windows notice the user that: this action will take a long time, you can run fo_nomos_license_list from command line, ok or not?
if you click ok: exist; if you click on no: keep going on.
want to talk with bob, tonight?

1) Like mentioned in the original comment, do not use the report_cache, use the repo for saving the report.
2)Right now we have "License List" and "License List Download". Get rid of "License List Download" since that will be the default action. When the user clicks on "License List", download the list if it has already been created. If it has not been created, queue it up immediately and display the Show Jobs link.
3) See 2) Never display the license list report on the UI. Always download it.
4) See 2) Always queue up the license list agent.


Cop suspended for fake encounter
An assistant police sub inspector who tried to get a truck driver involved in a fake encounter and forced him to pay a bribe of over Rs 53,000, saying he had detected a explosives placed in his truck has been arrested and later suspended from service.
The arrest and subsequent suspension of assistant sub inspector, Ankush Kharat, of the Begumpura police was, however, not easy, and came only after two days of hectic follow up by the company the truck driver worked for, as the police station kept delaying filing of a complaint.
Ankush Kharat, though in uniform, was actually not on duty when he tried to intercept the truck that Sunil Sampat Nighare was driving on Saturday. Nighare neglected Kharat's signal to stop and sped past him, not knowing the cop would give him a hot chase. Riding a two-wheeler, Kharat, managed to block the truck, after a eight kilometer chase, and managed to stop the truck. Kharat, was accompanied by a local goon, who did enough to scare the driver to submit to a thorough search of the truck.
Within minutes of the search, Kharat's aid, declared he had come across something incriminating --- bomb explosives in the truck. The driver, Nighare, could not know how could explosives get on his truck and pleaded ignorance. But, Kharat, with a well rehearsed threat, let Nighare know that he had enough evidence to declare him a suspected terrorist and bring up charges which could keep him behind the bars for his entire life.
After much pleading, Kharat allowed the driver to call an official from his company and arrange for the one lakh bribe that he was demanding to set him free. Very soon an officer did turn up and Kharat somehow managed to convince him of his findings. The bribe was finally settled at Rs 53,000, paid and the truck and driver freed.
When the official later discussed the matter with the driver he realised how Kharat had trapped them. But the Begumpura police would hear nothing of it and advised him to forget the money or file a complaint against Kharat. It was only when the official took the matter up to the commissioner of police, Uddhav Kamble, that the Begumpura police filed the complaint and arrested Kharat.
The next day on Sunday, Deputy Commissioner of Police, MB Tamble, issued an order to suspend Kharat, who is currently under police custody.

There’s no reason to resort to synthetic dress shirts because cotton shirts require ironing. Learning how to iron a dress shirt is easier than you may think. Invest in an ironing board and a good steam iron, and then follow these simple tips. Soon you’ll have a dress shirt that’s crisp from collar to cuffs.
- Always iron a shirt when it’s slightly damp. This can be done by removing the shirt from the dryer before its completely dry or using a spray bottle to dampen a dry shirt. You can also use steam from the iron to dampen the shirt while ironing.
- Consult the shirt’s care instructions for the correct heat setting for your shirt’s fabric. Begin by ironing the shirt collar, starting with the underside and pressing from the collar points to the center. Repeat on the inside of the collar.
- Drape one of the shirt’s shoulders over the end of the board. Iron the yoke (the strip of fabric between the collar and the shirt back) from the sleeve to the center back. Iron flat any pleats on the back of the shirt. Repeat for the other shoulder.
- Lay a sleeve on the ironing board and iron the inside and outside of the cuff. (Iron around buttons with the tip of the iron to avoid damaging them.) Iron the sleeve flat, beginning with the back and then ironing the front. Repeat for the other cuff and sleeve.
- Iron each shirt front from top to bottom and then iron each side of the back. Finally, iron the shirt placket being careful to iron between the buttons.
- Check for any remaining creases or wrinkles and use steam if necessary to smooth them out.
After your shirt is ironed hang it on a wooden or plastic hanger to keep it wrinkle free.

NEW YORK & PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL, as assignee of Alanis Omar, respondent, v. AMERICAN TRANSIT INSURANCE COMPANY, appellant.
In an action pursuant to Insurance Law § 5106(a) to recover no-fault benefits allegedly awarded under an insurance contract issued by the defendant, the defendant appeals (1), as limited by its brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Woodard, J.), dated December 19, 2006, as, upon reargument, granted the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment on the complaint, which had been denied in a prior order of the same court dated June 20, 2006, and (2) from a judgment of the same court entered January 2, 2007, which is in favor of the plaintiff and against it in the principal sum of $86,829.36.
ORDERED that the appeal from the order is dismissed; and it is further,
ORDERED that the judgment is reversed, on the law, so much of the order dated June 20, 2006, as, upon reargument, granted the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment on the complaint is vacated, and, upon reargument, the court adheres to its original determination in the order dated June 20, 2006, denying the motion; and it is further,
ORDERED that one bill of costs is awarded to the defendant.
The appeal from the intermediate order must be dismissed because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of judgment in the action (see Matter of Aho, 39 N.Y.2d 241, 248, 383 N.Y.S.2d 285, 347 N.E.2d 647). The issues raised on the appeal from the order are brought up for review and have been considered on the appeal from the judgment (see CPLR 5501[a]  ).
The Supreme Court, upon reargument, should have adhered to its original determination denying the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment. On that motion, the plaintiff established its prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law by demonstrating that the necessary billing forms were mailed to and received by the defendant, and that payment of the no-fault benefits was overdue (see New York & Presbyt. Hosp. v. Selective Ins. Co. of Am., 43 A.D.3d 1019, 842 N.Y.S.2d 63; Insurance Law § 5106[a]; 11 NYCRR 65-3.8[c] ). However, in response, the defendant raised a triable issue of fact as to whether the benefits were overdue (cf. A.B. Med. Servs., PLLC v. Liberty Mut. Ins. Co., 39 A.D.3d 779, 780-781, 835 N.Y.S.2d 614; New York Univ. Hosp. Rusk Inst. v. Government Empl. Ins. Co., 39 A.D.3d 832, 833, 835 N.Y.S.2d 612). The defendant provided evidence showing that the plaintiff's claim for the benefits was timely denied on the ground that the plaintiff submitted the billing forms more than 45 days after the last date of medical service (see 11 NYCRR 65-1.1, 65-3.3[e]; St. Vincent's Hosp. & Med. Ctr. v. Country Wide Ins. Co., 24 A.D.3d 748, 749, 809 N.Y.S.2d 88; NY Arthroscopy & Sports Medicine PLLC v. Motor Veh. Acc. Indem. Corp., 15 Misc.3d 89, 90, 836 N.Y.S.2d 753).
The defendant's remaining contentions have been rendered academic in light of our determination.

He joins Oskar Schindler and some other similarly honored Germans who protected and saved Jews duringthe Holocaust. Karl Plagge's story is of a unique kind of courage-that of a German army officerwho subverted the system of death to save the lives of some Jews in Vilna,Lithuania.
These peculiar tales have been arousing over the years and have been given strong attention to the public eye.
They have raised questions that have not yet been completely answered, gave rise to conspiracy theories that in some cases have not yet been disproven, and brought about myths and rumors that have not yet been completely put to rest.
The beloved John F. Kennedy th president of the United States- passed away in a very traumatic matter. Instead, they believe that the government caused those events. But what triggers them to do so? Yes it was unquestionably a tragic day for America and the world.
But for many in the country, and a staggering number of foreign citizens, the truth about what really took place on September 1 1, remains under relentless scrutiny and doubt.
Bush at the time of the attacks? Conspiracy theorists claimed that Israel wanted to draw America into a final showdown with its Arab enemies.
This is what supposedly happened… president Kennedy insisted on visiting Texas in Novemberwhere crowds of excited people lined the streets and waved to him and his wife… The car Alicia applemen s jurman report off Main Street at Dealey Plaza around As it was passing the Texas School Book Depository, gunfire suddenly reverberated in the plaza.
After a 10 month investigation, Kennedys iller was identified; Lee Harvey Oswald, who was immediately arrested. Now there have been different opinions and accusations on this case.
Just as mentioned, some concluded Oswald acted alone, others that there was a conspiracy behind it. And many have easily connected this incident to the one that occurred nearly a years ago. A similar assassination of another American legend, Abraham Lincoln. His story went something like this… On the evening of April 14,while attending a special performance in a theatre, President Abraham Lincoln was shot in the head and in the ar.
The man who snot him, was Jonn W tn tamous American actor. For instance, Lincoln was president on while Jfk was onthey were both fully directed in civil rights both played a major role in helping African Americansboth of their ives lost children in the White House, both shot on a Friday, their murders were both killed before trial, theories that both killers were involved in greater conspiracies.
The list goes on. So, you may be either shocked or you are a being skeptical about all this.
Many people believe that both the Kennedy nd the Lincoln assassinations were carried out as part of a larger government- centered conspiracy, rather than as a random event arranged by a single gunman.
But for many in the country, nd a staggering number of foreign citizens, the truth about what really took place on September 1 1, remains under relentless scrutiny and doubt. She was young, naive and a bit immature.
But this woman completely endeared herself to the public through her warmth and caring. As the wife of Prince Charles, she not only gave birth to the future British king, but also became an important figure to her people. Yes, I am talking about Princess Diana. Her unfortunate death, was omething this world did not expect.
We all know what and how it happened. Exactly 16 years ago, she passed away from serious internal injuries at a hospital in France due to a terrifying car crash.
Now there is something extremely interesting and unbelievable about this case.
Diana wrote a letter to her former butler Paul Burrell 10 months before she died claiming there was a plot to tamper with the brakes of her car. There was no proof nor any response from the British officials regarding this letter after her death.
However, after it was discovered, it certainly fueled conspiracy theorists who refused to accept the official version of the circumstances surrounding her death. So are you the kind of person who likes to hear a good conspiracy theory?“ Throughout Asia, the Empty Mirror is a symbol for the cosmos.
