Liverpool are mulling over a £10 million move for Norwich City’s Jamal Lewis as they look at add defensive reinforcements this summer.
According to Mirror, Liverpool have set their sights on Jamal Lewis. The Norwich City star has been eyed as a potential option for Jurgen Klopp as he looks to add more reinforcements in the left-back position. The Reds are even looking to come up with a £10 million offer to sign the defender.
Although Lewis is keen to stay in the Premier League following his club Norwich City’s relegation in this past campaign, he is looking to move to a club who can guarantee first-team football. His desire for regular first-team action could, in fact, derail the potential negotiations.
On the flip side, though, Norwich City have expressed interest in Liverpool youth player, Yasser Larouci. The youngster, unlike his fellow teammate, Neco Williams, is yet to make himself an option for the senior side. Hence, a move away from Anfield could make sense, with the Canaries presenting themselves as an appealing destination.
Lewis, on the other hand, is the next relegated Premier League players to attract the interest of Liverpool this summer. The newly crowned Premier League champions have historically signed the likes of Georginio Wijnaldum, Xherdan Shaqiri and Andrew Robertson from clubs that were relegated to the second division.
— Canary Cast (@CastCanary) July 26, 2020
We, at The Hard Tackle, had already piled up a list of three relegated players Liverpool should look to sign this summer – a list that notably included Lewis.
Speaking of Robertson, however, his presence in the Liverpool side is a major problem for Lewis. The 22-year-old, who has emerged as one of the few bright spots in an otherwise dire campaign for Norwich, could find his progress being stalled due to the fact that the Scot is the undisputed number one left-back for the Reds.
Although Lewis does have the talent to establish himself as a quality full-back, the lack of game-time at Anfield could seriously affect his development. For Liverpool, it is a completely different story.
As iterated earlier, their youth sensation, Larouci has not been able to emerge as a strong competitor to Robertson in the first-team. Lewis, in that regard, should provide better quality and ultimately improve the club’s depth in the defensive unit. It will help Klopp especially in rotation, which could play a crucial role next season.
Moreover, a fee of just £10 million also seems like a bargain for a player Lewis’ quality. And amid the coronavirus pandemic that has inflicted massive economic damage on European clubs, it could bode well for any Premier League club.

Pro-Democracy Group Respect My Vote Movement has called out Prof Stephen Adei over his claim that Jean Mensa is the best EC Chair Ghana has ever had, saying they believe his judgment has been clouded by the benefits he gets from the Akufo-Addo government.
In a statement jointly signed by its spokespersons Akalilu Samed, Stephen Kwabena Attuh, Ama Owusuah Boateng and Gabriel Osei Owusu, the group said Prof Adei has consistently demonstrated that he has no credibility especially when it comes to matters related to politics in this country because of what he gets into his stomach through “juicy appointments”.
Accordinf to them, “he falsely accused President Mahama of running a family and friends government but has found nothing wrong with Akufo-Addo disgraceful family and friends government”
“The juicy appointments that Akufo-Addo has given Prof Adei has clouded his judgement and therefore his education and Academic credentials mean nothing to him anymore.” They added.
Prof Adei appears to have incurred the wrath of the group when he reportedly said Madam Jean Jean Mensa is the most competent EC of Ghana since at least 1992.
The group believes “Jean Mensa has brought international embarrassment to Ghana through her poor conduct of the 2020 elections”, contrary to Prof Adei’s claims.
Read the rest of the group’s response below:
All well-meaning Ghanaians, domestic and international observers have seen how the Electoral Commission actively stole the election for Akufo-Addo by subverting the sovereign will of the people of Ghana.
Jean Mensa has succeeded in eroding all the gains made by her predecessors Dr. Kwadwo Afari-Gyan and Mrs. Charllote Osei.
For the first time in Ghana’s Electoral history, the Electoral Commission declared results and subsequently changed it several times. This alone is a recipe for conflict as it has happened in other countries.
Again, the EC’s lack of transparency in the 2020 elections through the poor engagement of stakeholders and results collation is most regrettable.
Many of the post election disputes can be addressed by the EC as it happened in the past; with all these challenges lingering, Jean Mensa decided to close down the ECs offices.
Through her incompetent leadership, Jean Mensa has disenfranchised the People of Santrofi, Akpafu, Lolobi and Likpe when the Commission’s mandate is to work to enfranchise eligible Ghanaians.
No wonder this current EC leadership cannot go about their normal duties without military escort like their predecessors did freely.
With all these obvious acts of gross incompetence, Jean Mensa will go down in history as the worse chairperson Ghana has ever had. She is a disgrace to the office she holds.
We are calling on Ghanaians to disregard selfish senior citizens like Prof Adei who instead of speaking against acts of subversion by Jean Mensa has rather decided to praise her. May posterity judge Prof Stephen Adei for his dishonesty and disservice to the people of Ghana.

Infection with Mycobacterium ulcerans is characterised by tissue necrosis and immunosuppression due to mycolactone, the necessary and sufficient virulence factor for Buruli ulcer disease pathology. Many of its effects are known to involve down-regulation of specific proteins implicated in important cellular processes, such as immune responses and cell adhesion. We have previously shown mycolactone completely blocks the production of LPS-dependent proinflammatory mediators post-transcriptionally. Using polysome profiling we now demonstrate conclusively that mycolactone does not prevent translation of TNF, IL-6 and Cox-2 mRNAs in macrophages. Instead, it inhibits the production of these, along with nearly all other (induced and constitutive) proteins that transit through the ER. This is due to a blockade of protein translocation and subsequent degradation of aberrantly located protein. Several lines of evidence support this transformative explanation of mycolactone function. First, cellular TNF and Cox-2 can be once more detected if the action of the 26S proteasome is inhibited concurrently. Second, restored protein is found in the cytosol, indicating an inability to translocate. Third, in vitro translation assays show mycolactone prevents the translocation of TNF and other proteins into the ER. This is specific as the insertion of tail-anchored proteins into the ER is unaffected showing that the ER remains structurally intact. Fourth, metabolic labelling reveals a near-complete loss of glycosylated and secreted proteins from treated cells, whereas cytosolic proteins are unaffected. Notably, the profound lack of glycosylated and secreted protein production is apparent in a range of different disease-relevant cell types. These studies provide a new mechanism underlying mycolactone’s observed pathological activities both in vitro and in vivo. Mycolactone-dependent inhibition of protein translocation into the ER not only explains the deficit of innate cytokines, but also the loss of membrane receptors, adhesion molecules and T-cell cytokines that drive the aetiology of Buruli ulcer.
Mycolactone is a lipid-like polyketide macrolide virulence factor produced by Mycobacterium ulcerans, the infectious agent of Buruli ulcer (BU) , . This progressive, necrotizing, cutaneous lesion is common in West Africa but also found in other regions, including Australia, Asia and South America. Mycolactone is a key factor in BU pathology: possession of a plasmid carrying enzymes involved in mycolactone synthesis is essential for virulence and injection of mycolactone alone can reproduce many characteristics of the infection, including ulceration, necrosis and suppression of immune responses , . Mycolactone has been shown to have diverse effects on a range of cells and tissues but a unifying mechanism underlying its pleiotropic actions has remained elusive.
In this manuscript we have identified an important new activity for the M. ulcerans virulence factor, mycolactone. By investigating the inhibition of cytokine production as a model system to examine its basic cell biology, we have shown that mycolactone effectively blockades the translocation of nascent proteins across the ER membrane in a mechanism that seems to involve the Sec61 translocon. This finding is remarkable because previous data suggested that mycolactone was probably inhibiting the translation of inflammatory mediators such as TNF, IL-6 and Cox-2 , . However, our detailed investigation refutes this. We showed conclusively that the transcripts were actively translating in vitro and in a RAW264.7 cell model in both the absence and presence of mycolactone. The polysomal location of each of these transcripts in treated cells is remarkably similar to that seen in untreated cells and their relocation in response to inhibitors of translation is also unaffected. Likewise the demonstration of an association between these mRNAs and the membrane fraction in mycolactone-treated cells provides independent evidence of sufficient translation having occurred to allow signal peptide-directed targeting to the ER.

The Bill provides that an Employee, subject to their having 13 weeks continuous service with their Employer shall be entitled to up to and including 3 sick leave days per annum, or such additional number of statutory sick leave days as may stand specified from time to time by order of the Minister. Amendments to the number of sick leave days provided for can be brought forward by the Minister following consideration of the economic climate and the possible impacts an amendment will have on both Employers and Employees.
The Government’s statutory sick pay will be phased in over a four-year period, starting with three days per year in 2022, rising to five days payable in 2023 and seven days payable in 2024. Employers will eventually cover the cost of 10 sick days per year in 2025.
The payment rate for statutory sick pay has been set at 70% of the Employees’ normal rate, subject to a maximum of €110 per day. The Employer must deduct taxes in the normal manner and the Employee has to be medically certified as unfit for work to qualify for statutory sick pay.
Employers will have to retain records of all statutory leave taken by their Employees for a period of 4 years and Employees maintain all existing employment rights when availing of benefits under the proposed Statutory Sick Pay legislation. The right to sick pay will be legally enforceable by employees through the Workplace Relations Commission and the Courts. Remedies available to successful complainants will include an award of compensation up to a maximum of 20 weeks remuneration.

From 2008 - 2012 Dr. Santana was the Head of the Acting Program at the NYU Graduate Film School, Tisch School of the Arts, where he has influenced and continues to mentor some of today's most promising and award-winning young filmmakers: Shaka King (Newlyweeds), Josef Wladyka (Manos Sucias), Dominique Deleon (Rez) and over 200 director members of The Casting Directory*Social, which he created and is one of the Internet’s most unique and innovative recourses for young filmmakers.
PODCAST: ART PRINCIPLES FOR EVERYDAY LIFE
In the summer of 2009, Dr. Santana directed the world premier of William Inge's "The Killing", for the Summer Shorts 3 Festival. Opening to rave reviews, the production has been hailed as a riveting and central theatrical event, a "fascinating rediscovery" of work of one of our most important American playwrights.
‘"'The Killing,’ [is] a superb piece of theater . . ." The New York Times, Ken Jaworowski, August 8, 2009, New York Times Review.
In 1984, as an acclaimed young actor, Dr. Santana recognized pervasive media violence's destructive influence on young people's lives.
Rather than continue to make such programs, he went to work on helping young people ('87). Over his 20 years of working with teenagers, first as Drama Director of Jane Fonda's Laurel Springs Performing Arts Ranch, then as co-founder of Santa Barbara's award-wining City At Peace Youth Program, Dr. Santana has developed a unique approach to reaching young people who otherwise might fall through society's cracks. Santana's work, grounded in an archetypal perspective, is an approach that helps one to see the eternal patterns associated with youth in particular, and also, to recognize the patterns that underlie the multitude of dynamic forces which recur within, and, evolve throughout culture.
He focus has been to create a safe place for people to express themselves without fear of judgment; trying to "fix" them; or spending much time trying to figure out "why" things are the way they are.
"My interest in working with young people stems from an appreciation for the caring adults who LISTENED when I was a young person. As an actor in mass entertainment, all too frequently, I found myself participating in the making of media violence. Witnessing its negative effects on teenagers, this prompted me to learn the skills to provide myself, young people and other adults with healthier alternatives." - Dr. José Angel Santana.
In 1999, for his work with "City At Peace," he was recognized as a Santa Barbara "Local Hero."
He is a graduate of The Neighborhood Playhouse a student of Sanford Meisner. He can be seen in the documentary "Sanford Meisner: The Theater's Best Kept Secret", directed by Academy Award-winning Director, Sidney Pollack, as well as in the definitive document of Mr. Meisner at work, the 8 hour classic:"Sanford Meisner Master Class."
other influences have been the innovations of Viola
Sills, and Dorothy
Heathcote. Also, the theories and methods of Alternatives to Violence and Nonviolent Communication. Another large contribution to Dr.
Santana's development has been the visioning influence of Archetypal
Psychology from his postgraduate studies with some of that
field's guiding lights: Mary
L. Miller, and James
Hillman, at The
Pacifica Graduate Institute
As a young actor, José originated leading roles in world premiers of works by some of our most important international contemporary playwrites: three world premiers of Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Mamet's works: "The Blue Hour" directed by Mr. Mamet, at Joe Papp's Public Theater in New York City; "Edmond" directed by Gregory Mosher at Chicago's Goodman Theater and in its OBIE Award-winning production, at the legendary Provincetown Playhouse in Greenwich Village; and Mamet's adaptation of Anton Chekhov's "The Cherry Orchard", with Oscar Nominee (Fargo) W.H.Macy.
He also originated leading roles in Academy Award-Nominee - REDS - Trevor Griffiths' "Real Dreams" directed by Mr. Griffiths and opposite Oscar-winner Kevin Spacey, at the Williamstown Theater Festivl; in Joe Cacaci's "Self Defense" directed by Arvin Brown, at the Long Wharf Theater and Off-Broadway; in Eduardo Machado's "The Modern Ladies of Guanabacoa" directed by James Hammerstein, at Ensemble Studio Theatre, in New York City; as well as the title role in Felipe Santander's, Casa de Las Americas award-winning play, "El Extensionista" directed by John Dillon, at the Milwaukee Repertory Theatre.
In Film, he received critical praise for his heartbreaking debut performance as "José - the Junkie" in Sidney Lumet's "Prince Of The City" and is remembered as the "strange Boutique Owner" with Madonna in "Desperately Seeking Susan." Among his featured performances in film are, Benny in "Batteries Not Included" with Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn and roles in: "Night Hawks", "The Pope of Greenwich Village", "Garbo Talks" and "The Morning After". In television he guest starred on the Emmy Award winning episode of "Miami Vice - Calderon's Demise," "Hill Street Blues", "The Twilight Zone" and "Beverly Hills 90210". Most recently, he co-starred opposite Academy Award-nominated actress Lindsay Crouse, in the Lifetime Channel movie "Stranger In My House."
A gifted teacher, as a young actor himself, he taught "Directing Actors" for N.Y.U Tisch School of the Arts, Graduate Film School, where among his students was the highly original director Todd Solondz and "In Living Color" Emmy Award-winning Writer/Producer Les Firestein. He taught the Meisner Technique at Tisch School/N.Y.U., Undergraduate Drama School, in association with David Mamet. His students founded The Atlantic Theater Company. Santana was the founder of Santa Barbara's Actors In Training: The Meisner Technique and Artistic Director of its BugEye Theater Company.

The Benefits of Vaping
There are many benefits to Vape. One such benefit is that it does not result in smoke. An electronic cigarette is essentially an electronic device which mimics traditional tobacco smoking. It usually includes a battery, an atomizer, and a tank or cartridge like container. Rather than smoke, the vaper inhales only vapor.
Because Vape would not produce smoke, it truly is believed to become a healthier alternate to traditional smoking cigarettes. Some users claim to have noticed an instantaneous decrease in their particular cigarette cravings. Many users also notice that their lung area appear to heal themselves a bit through the constant inhalation of vapor in addition to the actual act of smoking.
Individuals who inhale Vape notice a new definite improvement in the way their lungs sense after a brief period of time. Due to the fact there is zero longer any smoke cigarettes and only a modest amount of vapor, this minimizes the chance regarding triggering inflammation of the lungs. Even if one will be not close to be able to a smoker, Vape can help reduce the urge to smoke cigarettes by making a great individual’s breathing more regulated. The reduced urge to smoke cigarettes also decreases the amount of mucus and air caught within the lungs, further decreasing the chance of triggering swelling in the lung area.
The second benefit of Vape is that that is much easier to use than other types of concentrates. Concentrates often take several hours to heat up and, based on the power of the particular unit, can even consider up to a new entire day to create a concentrated point of vapor with regard to inhalation. This implies that Vape could reach the smoker’s target quicker, thus providing these the more directed encounter. For these factors, many vapers favor Vape over additional concentrates.
A final good thing about Vaping that makes it a popular choice will be that it will not pose severe lung damage. In contrast to smoking, it is not necessary to inhale entire vapes to reach the targeted area. By utilizing only Vape a new single, simple to use device, many people are usually capable to Vape without having worrying about harming their lungs or even causing serious well being effects. Considering that the simply time Vape will be used is launched being used, that is almost completely portable. Many people pick to because that is so basic to do and no health results to worry about when doing thus.
Despite the fact that all Vape items contain some degree of nicotine, they vary greatly in the particular level of nicotine they will contain. Inhaling typically the concentrated liquid in the smokes may trigger a round of nicotine dependency that takes days and nights on end.

LisaRaye's Ex Husband Michael Misick Resigns Early!+Jill Scott Shows Her Preggers Fab+Dawn Says She's Moving Forward
Mar 25 | by Natasha
So Premier Michael Misick has resigned from his reign in Turks and Caicos today. He wasn't scheduled to do so until March 31st but clearly somebody put some fire under his ass. With all the bad publicity and drama surrounding his public divorce and domestic violence situation with soon to be ex-wife LisaRaye, he decided to step down from his post. I know Rocsi thought she had her First Lady parlor in the Premier's mansion sewn UP. Womp womp.
Jill Scott is covering the new issue of Heart & Soul magazine showing a little bit of her baby bump. YBF chick indeed.
And Dawn Richard (who has a new photoshoot in the new issue of VIBE--pic above) talked to Fox News and said she's already moving forward with her career post-Danity Kane drama. But she can't say exactly how:
“I’ve been working, grinding … in the studio and getting things together," Richard said. "I can’t say how because it will be revealed on the season finale of 'Making The Band,' but I will say I am definitely moving forward.”Too bad we already broke that exclusive weeks ago that this chick is going solo and will announce it on the finale. Or will she and Diddy change it up now that the cat's out the bag?

When Harry Truman was president of the United States, he famously displayed on his desk in the Oval Office a sign that read: ‘The buck stops here’. He understood the need to take responsibility not only for his own actions but also for those of his administration, and that this applied even to the toughest of decisions â€” such as dropping nuclear bombs.
Personal accountability has gone out of fashion since Truman’s day, replaced by a culture of blame that seeks to excuse individuals from the consequences of their choices. The surge in the number of people walking away from their debts, not because they have suffered an accident or lost their jobs, but merely because they cannot be bothered to pay back the money they borrowed, is the latest manifestation of this corrosive attitude.

Welcome back to my eclectic collection of odds and ends articles. Tonight, we’ve got one from a fellow author I met on Goodreads. Like most of us, he’s had to toil up that horrible slope everyone dreads, called the “learning curve”. One of the biggest issues most independent authors face is how to get the critical reviews for our works. David has some good points, and I think I will let him take over from here.
Paying for book reviews?
Reviews are the lifeblood of an independent author. In online bookstores, potential buyers rely on reviews and ratings from other people to decide whether or not to hit that “buy” button. So they’re critical to the success of a book.
You might not know this, but many “reviews” are in fact simply paid for, by the publisher or producers of a piece of work. For example, the much-vaunted Kirkus book reviews cost authors over $400 (over $500 if you want the “express” service). Many people probably look at the movie ratings and reviews on the IMDB website, not realizing that movie companies pay people in large numbers to rate and review the releases positively.
This has been going on for years of course, from the record companies that buy thousands of their own records to game the charts to Doctors paid by extremely rich pharmaceutical companies to give positive test results for (or even prescribe!) specific drugs.
So as a newly-published writer what do you do? If you stick to the “moral high-ground” and refuse to pay for reviews you run the very real risk of not being read. If you go the “pragmatic” route and accept that “everyone’s doing it, so I may as well,” are you throwing out your morals with the bathwater?
Salvor Hardin once said: “Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what is right.” Unfortunately for the reviewers, who undoubtedly make a fair amount of money at this game, my sense of morals tells me not to pay for a review. Do you agree?
Thank you David. I know where I stand on this issue, and look forward to hearing what others think. Please leave a comment below with your answers.

By Lise Alves, Contributing Reporter
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA – Billionaire philanthropists, Lynda and Stewart Resnick announced last week a US$750 million to Caltech for research in climate change and sustainability. The Resnicks’ donation is the second largest to an educational institution and the largest geared towards combating the consequences of climate change.
“In order to comprehensively manage the climate crisis, we need breakthrough innovations, the kind that will only be possible through significant investment in university research,” Stewart Resnick said in a statement.
“Science and bold creativity must unite to address the most pressing challenges facing energy, water, and sustainability,” added the billionaire entrepreneur after announcing the donation.
The Resnicks are owners of Wonderful Company, a fruit and nuts conglomerate in California. They are said to be the largest single producers of almonds and pistachios in the world. “Sustainability is the challenge of our times,” noted Caltech president Thomas F. Rosenbaum after the announcement.
“Stewart and Lynda Resnick’s generosity and vision will permit Caltech to tackle issues of water, energy, food, and waste in a world confronting rapid climate change,” added Rosenbaum.
“The Resnick Sustainability Institute will now be able to mount efforts at scale, letting researchers across campus follow their imaginations and translate fundamental discovery into technologies that dramatically advance solutions to society’s most pressing problems.”
With the Resnicks’ donation the Resnick Sustainability Institute (RSI) founded in 2009 by the husband and wife team along with the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, plans to construct a new 75,000 square foot research center.
The focus will be to study solar and climate science, energy, biofuel decomposable plastics, water and environmental resources, as well as ecology and biosphere engineering.
“It is essential to have hope. More than anything, this commitment from Lynda and Stewart places hope in science and technology, and also in Caltech, to help chart a more sustainable future for all of us” RSI director Jonas C. Peters told reporters last week.

Two recent studies show that organic producers are profitable and contributing the overall good of rural American economies.
Nate Lewis with the Organic Trade Association said one study from our own backyard it’s not just limited to our economy.
“Washington State University researchers have shown in one analysis that over 20 years across five continents that organic is a profitable thing for farmers to do.”
The two studies were presented at the recent USDA Ag Outlook Forum.
Lewis also noted that Penn State University researchers have highlighted what they call hotspot counties across the U.S.
“What they showed was that we have a tremendous benefit to rural economies from organic production. If your county is considered a hotspot what we see is causality between it being a hotspot and reduction in rural poverty rates of 1.37 percent and an increase in household median income of about $2,000.”
A hotspot is a county with a high number of organic operations surrounded by counties with similar number of organic farms.

Try these curry spiced almonds for a flavorful and satisfying snack.
I used Calcutta Heat Curry Seasoning, but you can try your own flavor combination. Next time I’ll try smoked paprika, Frank’s Red Hot, or cinnamon.
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Toss 2 cups of almonds with 1 egg white or 2 tbs olive oil in a mixing bowl. Add seasoning (about 2 tbs or to taste) and stir to coat.
3. Spread almonds in a single layer on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 10 mins, stir around, and bake for up to 10 mins more.
These can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple of weeks. Measure out 1/4 cup (or 28 grams) for a snack. Enjoy!

Cyberpunk has been hitting headlines lately, but in another win for Nvidia’s cloud gaming service, the game will be arriving on that platform.
GeForce Now recently landed on iOS and iPadOS, giving mobile gamers another avenue to play their games, so this will come as welcome news for gamers all over.
The game will be available to play in 1080 at max settings thanks to Nvidia’s hardware, and if you pay to upgrade your subscription you’ll get longer play sessions, and be able to jump the queue.
Although you can stream this from Google Stadia, you won’t have a local copy, so if you’re just biding your time until either Nvidia or AMD can provide you a new GPU, then this might be a good way to play. Buy it on Steam, GOG, or Epic, and then you have a local copy for a later date!
We will be going hands on with the game tomorrow, and bringing you an update on what it’s like to play on Nvidia GeForce now.
In the meantime, check out our impressions on the service for iOS below.

Three fund-raising runners who set out to raise £1 for each of the nearly 3,000 members of the Few in support of two Battle of Britain charities are now hoping to make three times that sum.
Author and top Battle of Britain Memorial Trust supporter Jonny Cracknell was joined by Chris Marsh and Chris Scott on their 80-plus mile sponsored run to mark the 80th anniversary of the 1940 aerial conflict.
They were planning to hand over the results of their marathon effort to representatives of the Battle of Britain Memorial Trust and the Kent Battle of Britain Museum this month, but with lockdown stopping that happening, the trio has decided to leave the appeal ongoing.
And with a total of £8,100 in the kitty already, they are hoping that the extra time may allow supporters to boost the final total to £9,000, which will mean each runner making what the whole team set out to achieve originally.
“By the time we finished the run we had raised almost £7,000, and with additional donations, that has gone up by another £1,000 or so,” Jonny explained. “We can’t organise a handover event just yet so we thought we would keep the appeal going. It would be nice to raise a bit more and then present it once the lockdown is over.”
Driver Iain Willis was another vital member of the team as it ran from the headquarters of the Aircraft Restoration Company in Duxford to the Memorial at Capel-le-Ferne, via more than a dozen stops at places with RAF or Battle of Britain links.
Supporters can sponsor the team by visiting www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/battleofbritain80


Sabu is a veteran of the wrestling industry. Throughout his career, he has become one of the most prominent figures in wrestling history. In ECW alone, Sabu is a multi-time Champion, which includes two reigns with the ECW World Heavyweight Championship.
Sadly, it appears the 53-year-old wrestler has been involved in a number of controversies over the past year in regards to his behavior on social media. The latest incident is based around Renee Young being promoted to a full-time member of the RAW announce team alongside Corey Graves and Michael Cole.
Sabu tweeted the following remarks but later deleted the tweet.
“She is the 1st non fag but she is one of many cock suckers”
This comment is both sexist and homophobic. As anyone familiar with social media could tell, Sabu wasn’t exactly in the good books from the majority of the wrestling fanbase on Twitter.
It remains to be seen whether the wrestling icon will issue an apology for his actions or delete the tweet in question, but it is safe to say he has offended a lot of people.

Some people might wind down from a hard day and try and achieve an enlightened state of mind with a warm bath, candles and a good book. Others hit the gym for a runners high, or a piece of yogic bliss. I experience my zen state of mind in a useless wooden toy.
A child’s plaything, and certainly something I should have outgrown years ago. But between the urethane wheels on the concrete and the freedom and expression of a gripped wooden deck beneath my feet, my enlightenment comes from a skateboard. A toy that has been with me through thick and thin.
Something that when I step on board allows me to truly escape from the outside world and be forced to live in the moment. When I am dropping down a nine foot vertical concrete wave, nothing is on my mind but making it down to the bottom. Skateboarding has been there for me through many of life’s situations and has been everything and nothing all at once. My mind is always racing on board.
You start to grow what I call “skateboarder’s eyes”, every part of the urban landscape is viewed differently. They all become an obstacle with seemingly endless possibilities. Can I ride on it, jump over it or grind on it? Can I go up it, down it or through it? Should my board jump high, flip beneath my feet, or viciously slide into the curb like a shark hunting for prey? It is a mind state, that helps me keep my mind clear, while racing through the options and creative moves like a painter holding a paintbrush. My body feels the brunt end of it a lot of the time, as evidenced by a car trunk filled not only with skateboards but also ankle, knee and wrist braces from past injuries, and helmets that would do a better job protecting my head if I had them on. But just as my body feels pain, I feel the reward of a hard skate session.
The pump and burn of racing through concave structures of wood and concrete, the ache of using every muscle in my legs to launch my body a few feet into the hair and land back on board. On board, I feel like I have found the fountain of youth. My board also brings me full circle, mind, body and lastly soul, where it transforms me into a child again. My heart sings with the freedom of expression a good ride gives me, the moments I can share with friends or just with the landscape I am exploring. Being able to stop and smell the roses, stop and jump the stairs, and start again as I push back home, tired, sweaty and thirsty, but most of all enlightened by my board. Afterwards I always have a few moments of decompression.
I let the physical and mental experience set in. Relish in the moments of creation and success and delight in knowing I made it out from the moments of danger and pain. I usually sit in my favorite chair and take a drink from some resource® Natural Spring Water. Not everything in life has to be so serious, and sometimes its important to live in the moment, the right here and now, and let the little boy or girl that is inside you to take a break from the grind and, well….get on your skateboard and grind.

The striped marmoset normally thrives in an
environment abundant in deciduous trees. The lush
greenery provided by the trees gives the striped
marmoset enough nourishment to keep it healthy
during its reproductive cycle, ensuring that newborn
striped marmosets will replace any older ones who
die off. However, in the Torkanda region, which is
known for its large number of deciduous trees, the
striped marmoset population is considered
Which of the following, if true, best explains the
apparent discrepancy in the argument above?
A) Many species of animals that can be found in
the Torkanda region, including brown bears
and flying squirrels, are considered
B) The striped marmoset is thought to be
endangered in several regions of South
America and Africa.
C) The long-eared mongoose, which is indigenous
to the Torkanda region, is a natural predator of
the striped marmoset.
D) The Torkanda region is known for its harsh
winters, where temperatures frequently drop
well below freezing.
E) Striped marmosets have very rapid
metabolism, which is aided by the nutrients
found in the leaves and shoots of deciduous
The only other answer choice that comes close is D, yet the passage doesn`t mention anything at all about the striped marmoset requiring a certain climate to survive, only that it needs the deciduous trees to reproduce.


Total media ad outlays to grow 5.7% in 2017
eMarketer - New York, NY (May 22, 2017) — eMarketer expects advertisers in Brazil will spend $3.36 billion on digital advertising this year, a 15.0% gain from 2016. While other countries in Latin America tend to skew more heavily toward digital display ad spending, Brazil will see an almost equal split in outlays on search (46.2%) and display (47.1%) in 2017.
Brazil’s economy has experienced weaker growth than expected over the past year thanks to increasing unemployment, political turmoil, and high consumer prices. As a result, eMarketer has downgraded its total media ad spending outlook for the country to 5.7% for 2017.
Mobile ad spending has had a slow start in Brazil. With 4G coverage rapidly expanding throughout the country coupled with the growing number of smartphone users, eMarketer estimates mobile ad expenditures in Brazil will increase 61.0% this year and account for 78.4% of total digital ad spending by 2021.
However, brands continue to invest a significant amount of advertising dollars in television, which will account for more than half (53.0%) of total media ad spending in 2017. Unlike other markets in the region, Brazil’s TV viewership does not show signs of declining.
Despite this trend, shifting media consumption patterns among younger consumers have given advertisers in Brazil plenty of reasons to invest in digital media.
In cases where advertisers target younger demographics, spending tends to flow toward digital media, with large portions allocated to mobile over desktop. Conversely, when the target audience is over the age of 45, digital ad spending drops dramatically, and investments in television and radio are more prominent.
Recent shifts in media consumption among consumers have prompted advertisers to rethink strategies to better reach audiences on new platforms and devices. For instance, a study published by Ericsson in November 2016 found that TV and video viewers in Brazil watch content on a mobile device 26% of the time.


In honor of Earth Day 2010, I looked for something in my collection that seemed appropriate and this was the best I could do. “What is it?” you ask. This is a small solar panel on my sailboat “Wandering Star.” Here it is beaded with dew and just beginning to do it’s work turning sun rays into energy to power essential things like my iPod.
Sailboats, of course, are solar powered since without the sun, there would be no wind. The hull of my boat is white. But “Wandering Star” is really pretty green.

SC governor signs First Steps bill at State House
COLUMBIA, S.C. (WCSC) - Gov. Henry McMaster held a ceremonial signing of a bill that permanently reauthorizes South Carolina’s First Steps program.
McMaster signed State House bill H.4023 at the State House Thursday surrounded by supporters as well as some of the young children who have already or may benefit from the program.
South Carolina First Steps is an initiative designed to make sure all children can start school ready to reach their highest potential. The bill also restructures local First Steps partnership boards.
“South Carolina First Steps has been a tremendous asset for our state and has helped South Carolina become a leader in early childhood education,” McMaster said before the signing. “With this legislation, we reaffirm our commitment to building a strong early childhood education system and further ensure our children enter school ready to learn, setting them and our state up for a bright future.”
The General Assembly created First Steps in 1999 under the First Steps to School Readiness Act. That law made South Carolina the third state in the nation to establish a comprehensive, statewide public-private partnership for early childhood education, he said.
Georgia Mjartan, the executive director of South Carolina First Steps, has said access to early learning is important for First Steps and filling in gaps where there are needs.
“For more than two decades, First Steps has been a lifeline to families with young children, ensuring that from birth through age five, they are supported in providing their children with the best possible start in life,” Georgia Mjartan, the executive director of South Carolina First Steps, said. “Today, with this landmark legislation, South Carolina families can be assured that our support is unwavering. First Steps is here to stay.”

The two firms, ViroXis Corporation and Santalis Pharmaceuticals, develop sandalwood oil skin products
Singapore: West Australian sandalwood producer TFS Corporation has announced the acquisition of two US pharma firms in a deal worth $ 23.4 million. The two firms, ViroXis Corporation and Santalis Pharmaceuticals, develop sandalwood oil skin products.
Primarily used as an ingredient in perfume, sandalwood oil is now increasingly being used as a component of dermatological products to treat skin conditions like acne, psoriasis and eczema. TFS chief executive Mr Frank Wilson said the buyout would boost the company's earnings in the global skin care industry.
The company has about 5500 hectares of Indian sandalwood plantations in Western Australia's Ord River region, and smaller plantations in Queensland and the Northern Territory.
Mr Wilson said the deal would allow TFS to work closer with pharmaceutical product development teams and speed up the establishment of a range of sandalwood-based dermatological products.

As a college student, there are ample opportunities for brain farts, lack of sleep, and high stress situations. Luckily we have discovered a few foods that might help with all of three these situations. Discover ways to boost brain memory, increase brain function, sleep better, sleep longer, and decrease stress.
Food For The Brain
Foods That Help With Memory & Disease
Tomatoes – The lycopene found in tomatoes helps protect the body from free radical damage. This damage has been linked to the development of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
Pumpkin Seeds – Another important micronutrient for the brain? Zinc. Zinc helps with memory and thinking skills. Just a small handful of pumpkin seeds can provide the brain with enough zinc to handle all the day’s work.
Avocado – This delicious topping is a great source of vitamins E & C. These vitamins have been associated with a lower risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
Berries – Different berries such as strawberries, blueberries, and acai berries have been found to help slow age-related cognitive decline. Snacking on a few berries might just help your brain stay sharp for a while longer.
Spinach – Lutein is an antioxidant that helps protect against cognitive decline. Spinach is a great source of this antioxidant and has been shown to help prevent disease.
Foods That Help With Brain Power & Energy
Whole Grains – The brain needs a consistent flow of glucose to function properly throughout the day. A great way to help supply this flow is through whole grains; whole grains are slowly broken down into glucose, unlike other forms of sugar that get broken down quickly, causing a sudden rush followed by a depletion of glucose to the brain.
Grass-Fed Beef – Iron helps transport oxygen through the body and into the brain. Grass-fed beef is a great source of iron and a healthier way to improve iron levels in the body.
Sardines – Ready to have an amazing mental focus? Eat a few sardines. They are packed with omega-3 fatty acids that increase the communication between brain cells and regulate neurotransmitters, improving mental focus.
Lentils – These legumes provide a double dose of brain power. As a great source of folate, lentils not only increase brain power, they can also reduce levels of amino acids in the body that impair brain function.
Fish – Salmon, tuna, mackerel, and other fish contain high levels of DHA, which is important for the normal function of neurons within the brain.
Dark Chocolate – This treat has just enough caffeine to help maintain mental acuity. But even more than that, the flavonoids available in dark chocolate improve blood flow, which can regulate cholesterol and lower blood pressure, all of which are helpful to the role the brain plays.
Water – When a person becomes dehydrated the brain tissue can actually shrink; this shrinking can affect cognitive function and impair short-term memory.
Blackcurrants – Blackcurrants are full of Vitamin C, a vitamin believed to increase mental agility.
Sweet Spinach Salad – Use spinach, avocado, and berries to create a sweet salad full of memory enhancing and disease fighting vitamins.
Fish & Rice – Create a dinner of fish and whole grain brown rice to discover heightened brain power.
Black Currant Dessert – Eat a delicious treat of black currants and dark chocolate for a dessert that builds and protects your brain.
Food For Sleep
Almonds – These nuts are rich in magnesium. The mineral magnesium is necessary for quality sleep, and if the levels of magnesium throughout the body are too low, it is harder to stay asleep.
Dairy – Dairy products such as cheese, milk, and yogurt contain both calcium and tryptophan. The calcium in these products helps the brain use the tryptophan to create the sleep-triggering hormone melatonin.
Chamomile Tea – This tea provides an increase of glycine to the body; glycine relaxes nerves and muscles, helping the body calm down.
Passionfruit Tea – This drink contains alkaloids that act upon the nervous system and make the body tired. Drinking a cup of this tea just an hour before bed might help cure a night of insomnia.
Cherries/Cherry Juice – While the hormone melatonin is produced throughout the body naturally, sometimes adding a little extra from outside sources is a great way to regulate your sleep. Cherries and cherry juice are a great natural source of melatonin.
Bananas – You may have heard before that bananas are a great snack to help prevent muscle cramps. In a similar way, this same snack is great for helping muscles and nerves relax and get ready for bed. This fruit also helps convert tryptophan into serotonin, which increases relaxation even more.
Chocolate Banana Smoothie – Drink this tasty treat for a post-dinner snack or for dessert and find yourself drifting off to sleep much more easily.
Granola Yogurt – Add some almond granola to the top of your yogurt for a great evening calming snack.
Food For Stress
Green Leafies – Vegetables like spinach, lettuce, and kale are high in folate, which produces dopamine; dopamine is a brain chemical that helps keep the body and mind calm.
Mixed Nuts – Stressing depletes the body’s store of vitamin B. This vitamin plays an important role in keeping neurotransmitters happy, and helps the body handle the fight-or-flight stress response. Nuts are a good source of this vitamin and a great way to replenish the body.
Red Peppers – This veggie is abundant in vitamin C; vitamin C helps lower blood pressure and allows the body to recover quickly from the cortisol surge it gets when people get stressed. This food might just help you cope a bit better next time you feel stressed.
Cashews – These little nuts pack a punch when it comes to zinc, a micronutrient the body needs to fight anxiety and depression. The body has no way of storing zinc, so finding outside sources is necessary.
Garlic – Stress lowers the immune system’s ability to fight off bacteria and infection. Garlic is full of antioxidants that neutralize free radicals and help fend off heart disease, colds, and more.
Sweet Potatoes – This vegetable is full of carotenoids and fiber; carotenoids help boost optimism. Plus, they are so delicious they can help curb a sweet tooth.
Spicy Food – Capsaicin, a molecule in chili peppers, causes the brain to release endorphins.
Spicy Stir Fry – Add some chili, garlic, sweet potato, spinach, and red peppers to your stir fry next time you’re feeling too stressed.
Sweet Potato Casserole – Sprinkling a few marshmallows and nuts on top of your sweet potatoes and baking them to perfection allows you to boost your optimism and keep your neurotransmitters happy all at the same time.

Burkholderia pseudomallei is a Gram-negative bacterium responsible for melioidosis, a serious and often fatal infectious disease that is poorly controlled by existing treatments. Due to its inherent resistance to the major antibiotic classes and its facultative intracellular pathogenicity, an effective vaccine would be extremely desirable, along with appropriate prevention and therapeutic management. One of the main subunit vaccine candidates is flagellin of Burkholderia pseudomallei (FliC<inf>Bp</inf>). Here, we present the high resolution crystal structure of FliC<inf>Bp</inf> and report the synthesis and characterization of three peptides predicted to be both B and T cell FliC<inf>Bp</inf> epitopes, by both structure-based in silico methods, and sequencebased epitope prediction tools. All three epitopes were shown to be immunoreactive against human IgG antibodies and to elicit cytokine production from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Furthermore, two of the peptides (F51-69 and F270-288) were found to be dominant immunoreactive epitopes, and their antibodies enhanced the bactericidal activities of purified human neutrophils. The epitopes derived from this study may represent potential melioidosis vaccine components.

I thought it was time to give this blogging thing a try. I have been viewing some crazy quilt blogs for sometime now and have gotten so many inspiring ideas and up lifting wisdom. For 18 years I have been stitching in one form or another. Cross-stitch, quilting, embroidery and then about 5 years ago I came across an old crazy quilt in an antique shop (oh ya, I love junk hunting too!) for almost nothing. So I picked it up and started doing some research because the stitching just made me want to know more. Well that's all it took, when I realized I could combine everything I love into one project, that's history and five years later I'm still in love with crazy quilting.
I had this pansy fabric forever and just could never find the right quilting project for it. A friend had picked up the pansy embroidery pattern and gave it to me to do, when I got it done I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my saved pansy fabric. So this small wall hanging was created and hung in the office where I work for a few months until a new project took its place. A girl I worked with had recently lost her grandma/best friend and the pansies reminded her of her grandma, so one morning she found it wrapped up on her desk. Sometimes you create things and you don't know why till fate rings that little bell.
Now, I need projects for the other million pieces of saved fabric. Any one else out there ever buy fabric that they are so in love with that they cant cut it? Sometimes I think I'm crazy. But then I remember, I am! For others that love crazy quilting you might like to check out http://cqmagonline.com, I have gotten many ideas from these very inspiring and talented ladies.
