Less than 12 hours after defending their Big Sky Conference tournament championship Wednesday night in Ogden, Utah, the Portland State Vikings returned home with all the paraphernalia befitting a champion.
But in addition to the plaques, trophies, awards and nets they came home with, the Vikings also brought back two things they didn't have after last year's championship: the resolve and experience to do some damage in the NCAA Tournament.
Junior Julius Thomas said the team's response Wednesday night after holding off Montana State 79-77 showed what it learned from last year.
"After the initial celebration and getting really excited, it was right back down to business," Thomas said. "This year it's like I've been here before. It takes a lot of hard work to get (to the NCAA Tournament) and now we're here and now we've got to continue to work hard and try to represent ourselves well in the tournament."
After winning the school's first Big Sky championship last year, the Vikings drew a 16 seed and a matchup with eventual national champion Kansas in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
The Vikings won't find out their seed and first-round opponent until Sunday, but they hope they have made a good case for a higher seed and a more winnable game. A win at Gonzaga, then ranked in the top 10, and a one-point loss to Pacific-10 Conference champion Washington figure to help PSU's argument, although losses at Cal Poly (7-21) and Idaho State (13-19) will hurt.
"We've got higher expectations this year," Big Sky Tournament MVP Jeremiah Dominguez said. "We've seen how we can play against Gonzaga. ... We should be all right."
"We're not satisfied," junior Dominic Waters said. "We want to win a game. We want to compete in the tournament."
Thomas, who slammed home the winning basket with 3.5 seconds remaining Wednesday, said in contrast with last year, this team knows what it will take to win.
"We learned last year that it takes a different level of intensity," he said. "Playing from the regular conference, to the conference tournament to the NCAA Tournament, the intensity level it rises at every level. You can't have mistakes at that level if you plan on being a lower seed and beating a top seed. You've got to work twice as hard as they are and hope that they're having an off night and you're having an on night."
Wednesday the Vikings ran into a Montana State team that was having an on night and managed to eke out a win, thanks to a dominant performance from Dominguez and tough inside play from Thomas.
The Bobcats took a 42-40 lead early in the second half and led for the first three minutes of the half before Dominguez took over. Dominguez buried a three-pointer to put PSU up 48-47 and then answered three consecutive Montana State points with a layup to retie the score. Dominguez then got the ball back and found Thomas for a layup, which gave the Vikings a lead they held until Branden Johnson hit a three-pointer to tie the score at 77-77 with 11 seconds remaining.
"We were struggling and the momentum was kind of shifting," he said. "I know they had a big bucket to tie the game and I saw the opportunity and took a shot and hit the three which put us back up and gave us momentum."
Dominguez finished with a game-high 22 points and added five assists to only one turnover while Thomas matched his career high with 17 points.
Dominguez and Thomas were named to the All-Tournament team along with senior teammate Andre Murray. Johnson, guard Will Bynum and center Divaldo Mbunga made the team from Montana State.
A tired but elated Dominguez reflected on the odyssey that brought him to Portland State three years ago after two years spent mostly on the bench at the University of Portland.
"This is the main reason I came over here," he said. "Portland State had something going and they needed a little more and I thought I fit their program and now two years later we've got two championships and we're going to the dance twice. It's been really good."
Coach Ken Bone sounded the same note, saying the team's success did not surprise him.
"I don't want to sound arrogant but it's not like I'm like, 'Wow we did it.'" he said. "That's why I came to Portland State and the assistant coaches came to Portland State -- we thought, you know, we can get this done. We can go to Portland State and have a great program. Let's go for it."

GOTS has released exceptional measures for GOTS Certified Entities which are affected by the earthquake in Southeast Turkey and surrounding regions.
Click here for more info.
On 22 December 2021, the IOAS Accreditation Body informed GOTS that OneCert lost its accreditation to GOTS with immediate effect. OneCert has requested IOAS arbitration on this issue. Regardless of any such process, the decision to withdraw accreditation to GOTS Scope remains in effect.
This means that entities certified by OneCert need to migrate to another certification body of their choice. This situation will potentially put their certified entities under some stress. OneCert has been requested to strictly follow Section 4 of the Policy for Change or Migration of Certification Body’. They will cooperate with other CBs for a smooth transition of business, thereby protecting the rights of GOTS-certified entities.

Consumer Reports Conducts Survey on Sleep Aids
Due to the results of two surveys conducted in 2022 on sleep, Consumer Reports reviewed the evidence concerning the effectiveness of popular sleep aids. The nonprofit consumer organization reviewed products that included CBD, melatonin, magnesium, iron, vitamin D and others. These are supplements commonly used to help people fall asleep or stay asleep.
Consumer Reports surveyed 2,048 U.S. adults in October 2022 to determine sleep habits, experiences, and efforts to improve sleep. The survey found that 91 percent of the people had experienced sleep issues, and 30 percent took either dietary or natural supplements, over-the-counter medication or prescription sleep medication. In a different survey conducted in June/July 2022, 1-out-of-3 people said they take sleep supplements.
Melatonin is the most popular sleep supplement, and evidence supports that it may help people fall asleep an average of seven minutes faster.
“But to avoid interfering with your body’s natural production, high doses should not be taken long term, says Selena Chan, DO, a psychiatrist and interim director of clinical programs at the University of California San Francisco Osher Center for Integrative Health.”
Much more research is needed, but Dr. Chan recommends that CBD before bedtime may be beneficial if a person practices good sleep habits. It is important to buy high-quality products from a reputable company that has honest labeling on the amount of CBD in the product.
Magnesium is another product that may help relax the body, but the research is minimal. The scarce research suggests there may be a link between magnesium and sleep improvement, but there is a need for more research on its ability to address sleep issues.
Valerian research reports mixed results. Some studies found it may help improve sleep, while others found no link between valerian and sleep improvement. The same is true for studies of vitamin D. There is one 2018 study that found vitamin D may help people with a vitamin D deficiency experience better sleep quality by taking vitamin D.
Though there is limited research, many scientifically controlled studies are underway. Personal evidence as to the efficacy of CBD has attracted the attention of medical researchers. A number of products contain CBD and melatonin, minerals and vitamins for maximum effect. Getting a good night’s sleep is very important to health. People should always combine whatever sleep supplement they choose with good sleep routines and not rely only on supplements.

India-based biotechnology company Bharat Biotech has secured regulatory approval from the Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) to advance its Covid-19 vaccine candidate, Covaxin, into human clinical trials.
This marks the first regulatory approval for India’s domestic vaccine to enter trials. DCGI’s approval will enable the company to conduct Phase I and II studies, which are set to begin next month.
Covaxin has been developed in partnership with the Indian Council of Medical Research’s National Institute of Virology. The inactivated vaccine was manufactured in Bharat Biotech’s facility at Genome Valley in Hyderabad, India.
Bharat Biotech chairman and managing director Krishna Ella said: “We are proud to announce ‘Covaxin’, India’s first indigenous vaccine against Covid-19.
“The collaboration with ICMR and NIV was instrumental in the development of this vaccine. The proactive support and guidance from CDSCO has enabled approvals to this project.”

In April this year, Bharat Biotech partnered with FluGen and University of Wisconsin–Madison (UWMadison) to develop and evaluate a Covid-19 vaccine candidate, CoroFlu.
CoroFlu will be administered intranasally with an aim to induce multiple immune responses.
Later in May, Bharat Biotech entered into an exclusive agreement to develop a Covid-19 vaccine candidate created at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, US.
Thomas Jefferson professor developed this vaccine candidate in January using an existing deactivated rabies vaccine as a vehicle for coronavirus proteins.
Apart from Bharat Biotech, multiple companies in India are working to develop a Covid-19 vaccine, including Zydus Cadila, Serum Institute of India (SII) and Panacea Biotec. Currently, these candidates are in preclinical development stage.
In addition, SII entered a licensing agreement with AstraZeneca for one billion doses of a Covid-19 vaccine developed by the University of Oxford. AstraZeneca agreed to supply 400 million doses before the end of this year.


White House Team Dispatched to Detroit to Assist in Resolving UAW Strike
A team appointed by President Joe Biden is set to arrive in Detroit early this week to provide support in resolving the strike between the United Auto Workers (UAW) union and the Big Three auto companies. White House adviser Gene Sperling and Acting Labor Secretary Julie Su have been designated to help end the walkout, which commenced on Friday. While their goal is not to mediate or intervene, they aim to offer constructive assistance to the negotiations. The administration is pleased that the parties continue to engage and meet, even after the contract expiration. President Biden, who has expressed support for workers' rights, hopes for a return to negotiations and acknowledges the frustrations of workers who feel that record profits in the automobile industry have not been fairly shared. The strike poses a challenge for Biden, who has positioned himself as a pro-union president. The UAW's historical support for Democrats contrasts with the backing received by former President Donald Trump from blue-collar autoworkers. UAW President Shawn Fain stated that the walkout would force politicians, including Biden, to choose a side on organized labor. As the strike commenced, approximately 13,000 UAW members walked out at General Motors, Stellantis, and Ford facilities. If all UAW members participate, the union would have sufficient funds for about 11 weeks of strike pay.
Conclusion: Implications of the UAW Strike for New Businesses
The ongoing UAW strike and the White House's involvement offer a "hot take" on how such labor disputes can impact new businesses, particularly those in the automobile industry.
Understanding Labor Relations
For new businesses, understanding labor relations is crucial. The UAW strike underscores the importance of fair wage distribution and the potential consequences of unresolved labor disputes. It serves as a reminder for businesses to prioritize employee satisfaction and uphold workers' rights.
Navigating Political Influences
The involvement of the White House in the strike highlights the intersection of politics and business. New businesses must be aware of political influences and how government interventions can impact labor negotiations and overall business operations.
In conclusion, the UAW strike and the White House's response provide valuable insights for new businesses. While the strike poses challenges for the involved parties, it also serves as a lesson for businesses to maintain fair labor practices and navigate political influences. The impact of such labor disputes on the broader industry and on new businesses venturing into this space will be significant.

Twitter seems to be contemplating introducing a paid tier to the social media platform, though they haven't revealed what that tier would include. A new survey conducted by Twitter, however, gives us an idea of what it might include, a survey that listed out several features and asked people to rate them from most to least important. The first thing that comes to mind for a new feature is undoubtedly an edit button, as many have asked for one since...well, forever really. There is no complete edit button in the survey, but there is a feature that could be as close as we're going to get, and that's the Undo Send feature. Basically it would allow you to recall the tweet before anyone sees it if you spotted a typo or just decided not to send it, but you only have 30 seconds to do it (via TechCrunch).
That's nice, don't get me wrong, but if you spot the error any later, you're still stuck either deleting it or just leaving it up. That won't satisfy everyone, but it is a step in the right direction at least. Now, that wasn't the only thing listed, as other features included longer videos, additional custom color modes, badges that let you show who you work for on your profile, and more.
Here are all the options on the survey (via Matt Navarra).
😮 Here’s a list of features Twitter may be considering for its paid / subscription service
Which would you be willing to pay for? pic.twitter.com/w8vYumrpx3— Matt Navarra (@MattNavarra) July 31, 2020
Undo Send: A 30-second window for you to recall/withdraw a tweet before anyone can see it.
Custom Colors: In addition to "Night Mode," you could change the fonts and theme color of Twitter on your phone and computer. Background color, links, mentions, hashtags and icons would appear in whatever color you choose.
Video Publishing: You could publish videos up to 5x longer than current default, with a much higher maximum resolution (8192×8192)
Badges: You get a badge(s) on your profile that links to businesses you own or work for (Example: A journalist can have a badge showing the magazines they write for.)
Auto responses: Able to write and set a menu of auto responses to use in replies. This would likely be more useful to brands that wanted to redirect customer inquiries to official channels.
Social listening: You can see conversation around your account on Twitter, including total volume, the people and businesses who are talking most often and what they are saying. This, again, would largely appeal to brands.
Brand Surveys: You could be able to survey people about the ads you run to better understand if your ad was memorable and if people are likely to buy the products or services featured. Twitter today already runs similar ads, so this feature would be relatively easy for it to implement.
Are you happy with the Undo Send option, or would you rather still have a full edit feature? Let us know in the comments or let me know on Twitter @MattAguilarCB!

End-of-season scenarios analysed
Coventry City's season has been decimated by the coronavirus crisis but discussions around a conclusion to the campaign are ongoing.
A number of ideas to conclude the League One season have been floated, with the EFL continuing to discuss potential plans with their stakeholders, though the timeframe to come to a decision is very tight.
While the preference is for the season to be completed and all matches played, there are a number of difficult issues to navigate through and, with every proposed plan, there are pros and cons.
Season simulation ends badly
Coventry City's Sky Bet League One season was due to come to end today, but who would have been promoted and who would have reached the play-offs?
Mark Robins' team is currently top, five points clear of Rotherham United and seven ahead of Oxford United as football waits to see when it can restart after being halted by the coronavirus pandemic.
Sky Sports have turned to Football Manager 2020 to find out what may have happened throughout the rest of the campaign.
According to a simulation by Football Manager, heading into the final day three teams - Coventry, Oxford and Rotherham - are level on 78 points at the top of the table.
Oxford record four straight wins in April, including a 2-1 win away at Coventry. That helps to put them top on goal difference going into the final day.

EFL 'financial madhouse' criticised
Stan Collymore has hit out at the EFL’s ‘financial madhouse’ as football contemplates life without gate receipts for the immediate future.
Writing in his column in Sunday People, the former Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa striker highlighted the way some players have been handed eye-watering deals – from the Championship down to League Two.
Collymore revealed he earned £1,500 a week during his time at the City Ground – which included promotion to the Premiership.
Yet now he says the second tier’s top earner pockets more than 40 times that figure, with players in League Two on more than double.
"With the Championship’s top earner on £68,000 a week, you realise just how ridiculous football is," Collymore writes.

The owner of the Fuge in Warminster got the township zoning hearing board's approval to hold daytime events on a case-by-case basis during the construction of additional onsite parking. Township supervisors appealed that decision, seeking to uphold a previous zoning board condition forbidding the daytime events.
Warminster supervisors are seeking to reverse the township zoning hearing board's approval for weekday banquet and catering operations at the Fuge.
The supervisors recently filed an appeal in county court, asking a judge to overturn the board's decision late last year to approve the weekday operations at the venue, which rents out space for events like weddings, concerts and fundraisers off Jacksonville Road.
That approval undid a condition the zoners set in July 2018, giving Fuge owner Cravero Turnkey Solutions LLC permission for food service in a 4,000-square foot, third-floor area, in addition to existing service in a combined 16,130 square feet of the building. The zoners conditioned the extra banquet and catering space on the Fuge only allowing events on weeknights and weekends.
But Cravero representatives returned two months later, in September, asking for a temporary variance so it could hold daytime events until it finished onsite parking additions, with case-by-case approval from Warminster's zoning officer.
The zoning hearing board got it right the first time and "committed errors of law" in reversing its restriction on the Fuge's daytime banquet and catering use, the supervisors' attorneys argued in the appeal.
The attorneys said Cravero did not present sufficient evidence or meet required standards for the zoners to overturn the restriction, less than 5 months after they deemed it "necessary to protect the public health, safety and welfare."
The zoners wrote in their December decision that they originally set the restriction on account of parking concerns, including that Fuge guests were parking on the grass or on nearby properties. In granting permission for the case-by-case daytime food service, the board placed new conditions for Cravero to put up "no parking on the grass" signs and restrict daytime events to no more than 750 guests.
Cravero representatives testified the Fuge typically plays host to two to five events each month and has a total occupancy around 1,100 people.
The township zoning hearing board has not yet formally responded to the appeal in court, though Cravero intervened as a party last week.
No residents attended the zoning hearings last year in support of or against the Fuge's requests, the decision documents show.

There was little doubt that Diablo 4 was the game dominating conversations and attention in June 2023 when it launched, but StreamElements’ State of the Stream report for the month of June confirms it. The game topped Twitch viewing charts by a massive margin, garnering 156 million hours worth of viewing for the month. It was more than 60 million hours up over the nearest competing game and was only topped by the always-active Just Chatting category.
StreamElements released its June 2023 State of the Stream report with data from its analytics partner at Rainmaker.gg on July 28, 2023. According to the latest report, Diablo 4 absolutely dominated game viewership on Twitch for June 2023. Where it had a pretty good showing in months where the beta was in play, the game’s launch in June saw a meteoric rise in attention and eyes on the game for nearly the entirety of the month. Diablo 4 viewership on Steam came out to 156 million hours. The closest competitor was League of Legends and it came in at 94 million hours, about 62 million hours behind Diablo.
Diablo 4 has had a rollercoaster ride of good and bad will from players since it launched. There’s little doubt that its dungeon loot grind formula still works and is addictive, but the live-service elements of the game have caused more than a few issues. Hardcore runs over hundreds of hours have been wiped by server issues, buffs and nerfs have thrown player-favorite builds into chaos, and some equipment just failed to spawn at all. Even so, it didn’t stop players from clocking over 700 million hours into the game in June as well.
With this in mind, for better or worse, it’s easy to see how eyes have stayed on Diablo 4. And with such a strong showing in June’s State of the Stream, it will be interesting to see if Diablo 4 can keep that steam going in following months. Stay tuned for more StreamElements State of the Stream reporting as it drops.

yes oil filters were being discussed elsewhere on here ,
Ive recently messaged a seller of K+P filters on ebay asking how many microns they filter down to and heres the reply, and I paid $21 Aust for a Polaris filter, so theres a big saving over time with reusable filters.
anyway heres what they said...
Just heard back from the K+P people
We use ASTMF316 testing procedures which eliminate many of the user variables found in the SAE procedures. We sent filter media from several common brands of paper filters to the lab to be run through the ASTM test.
The results for the paper filters ranged from 48 microns for the best filter to over 300 microns for the worst filter. Paper media filters pass particles anywhere between 50 and 90 microns. Paper filters are rated on averages, percentages of efficiency (also known as beta ratios) and multiple passes, so a 10 micron rated paper filter (as advertised on the packaging) may be letting particles 50 microns and larger through.
The medical grade stainless steel cloth that we use is consistent across the entire media surface and is rated at 35 microns, meaning nothing larger than 35 microns will pass through the material. The bottom line is we meet or exceed the filtration performance of OEM filters with improved oil flow at lower pressure.

Book Review: Preparing to Be a Help Meet by Debi Pearl
Published 7:25 am, Monday, October 24, 2011
I am often asked of good Christian dating books to recommend to younger girls. Recently I finished reading a very interesting book by called Preparing to be a Help-Meet. If you have a dating-interested teen who doesn't necessarily like reading - and has no older girl showing her what a godly relationship looks like - I would definitely recommend this book. For older girls, however, I would suggest something else.
Debi Pearl's Preparing to be a Help-Meet is a 227 page book written to single women who await the writing of their love story. Pearl uses eighteen chapters to tell nine real-life love stories. Some are godly examples of what to do and others are examples of what not to do. Throughout the book are insights from the three different types of men (explained in chapter three) which show the male point of view of Pearl's advice. I would say the overall theme of the book is practical advice for young women waiting to marry.

The book also includes an in-depth Bible study with step by step instructions for teachers in the back. This would be extremely helpful for anyone leading a group Bible study for the first time. Pearl gives specific details from setting the scene to applying practical homework.
The author Debi Pearl, is also the writer of a monthly magazine entitled No Greater Joy. Her and her husband started No Greater Joy Ministries in which they published their first book, To Train up a Child, in August of 1994. Her husband Michael has been a pastor, missionary, and evangelist for over 40 years.
The book is wonderful in that it gives very practical advice, such as learning to manage time and money, learning cooking, cleaning, and mechanical skills, and respecting and obeying authorities presently in your life as training for marriage. Young minds can be expanded as the reader travels through nine stories from all sorts of women, relationships, and outcomes. Finally, the layout of the book provides an easy and fun way to learn about Christian relationships.
One of the most disappointing features of the book is the poorly written content. Although the author's ideas are valuable, they don't come across as clearly as intended due to poor organization, editing, and grammar. As a fellow studier of relationships myself, I was also disappointed that the book did not emphasize the importance of guarding a young woman's heart, something I consider to be vital for any future relationship. I also thought that while Pearl gave advice on serving, ministering, and learning, she should have also briefly mentioned the importance of making disciples in this stage of life.
Overall the book is a wonderful read for young women waiting on marriage. While Preparing to be a Help-Meet offers great practical advice for preparation and understanding your future man, I do not recommend reading it unless you have given God all control of your heart. The fantasy-filled pages leave room for young women to waver in the desires of marriage, thus losing focus on God.

Kim Basinger Reveals the Moment Her Irrational Fear of Leaving the House Took Over
Oscar-winning actor Kim Basinger has been grappling with crippling anxiety since she was a child. Despite being a Hollywood A-lister at the peak of her career, Basinger became so worn down by agoraphobia and anxiety attacks that she could hardly leave her house. Opening up in her first interview in 14 years, Basinger details her troubled past, the generational cycle of anxiety, and how her daughter with ex-husband Alec Baldwin, Ireland Baldwin, helps keep her worst fears at bay.
Kim Basinger overcame childhood anxiety to become a star
Long before she was a bona fide Hollywood icon, Kim Basinger was a typical girl from Athens, Georgia, growing up in a time when anxiety was little understood. Following in the footsteps of her mother, who was also an actor-model, Basinger ditched the University of Georgia for New York and quickly found success as a model. But her early success also came with a cost. As she told Charlie Rose in 2000, she was so insecure about her looks she had a hard time glancing at herself in a mirror.
But Basinger wasn’t going to let her anxiety and insecurity win. After much success as an ad model in the 1970s, she picked up minor TV roles before transitioning to the big screen by the early 1980s. Basinger had a career moment co-starring with Sean Connery in the James Bond flick Never Say Never Again in 1983 and capped the ’80s with a major role in Batman, one of the decade’s biggest movies.
When Basinger was an outright star by the start of the 1990s, she met her second husband, Alec Baldwin, on the set of The Marrying Man. Wedding bells tolled in August 1993.
But even though Basinger and Baldwin seemed happy together, their union ended with a separation in 2000 and a public divorce in 2002.
Elaborating recently on Jada Pinkett-Smith’s talk show, Red Table Talk, Basinger described the divorce as “heavy-duty,” ultimately taking a significant toll on their daughter, Ireland.
Kim Basinger’s battle with agoraphobia has lasted for decades
While Kim Basinger’s star status and acclaim mounted, she privately waged a devastating battle with agoraphobia, an anxiety disorder tied to the fear of being trapped in certain situations. As detailed by the Seattle Times, Basinger explained that her trauma went back to her school days, when she was occasionally so nervous she thought she would faint during public speaking.
The same inhibiting fears swept through her in March 1998 at the moment she reached a career milestone. That year, Basinger was up for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her role in L.A. Confidential.
“I was just absolutely scared to death,” she recalled. “And I knew that the next year, I had to hand the award out to the next winner. I don’t know if I was more elated over winning or more in pain over knowing that I had to come back!”
Basinger overcame her nerves, calmly handing out the Best Supporting Actor statuette at the 1999 Oscars to James Coburn for Affliction.
Speaking in front of millions of viewers was also far from the only time Basinger struggled to control her anxiety. She explained on Red Table Talk that she once had such an intense anxiety attack in a grocery store that she subsequently had trouble leaving her house.
“People don’t really understand these things,” Basinger said of the stigma of anxiety disorders. “So when you really feel like you’re in it alone, it is a horrible feeling.”
The anxiety from that moment in the grocery store became so severe that she stopped driving for months and had to relearn everything behind the wheel.
Ireland Baldwin has been an enormous lift for her mother
For Kim Basinger, the anxiety she experiences can be traced back to her childhood, when she became obsessive about wanting to protect her mother. Basinger even figured out ways to be sent home from school and escape to her mother’s side, laying the groundwork for her agoraphobic fears.
When Pinkett-Smith asked Basinger about recognizing her daughter’s anxiety, the 68-year-old actor appeared emotionally devastated by the idea of Ireland inheriting similar challenges.
But Ireland, who also appeared on Red Table Talk, has also been a significant source of strength for her mother.
“She’s brought me out of my shell,” Basinger said, explaining a critical part of her ability to live with agoraphobia. According to the Mayo Clinic, a close friend or family member is often essential in confronting agoraphobic fears and overcoming the associated anxiety.
The support from Ireland also juxtaposes sharply with Basinger’s marriage to Alec Baldwin. Speaking of her father’s take on anxiety, Ireland said, “He grew up in a family that would suppress that or say that he’s weak.” Ireland experienced her own bouts of anxiety during the contentious divorce between Basinger and Baldwin, CNN reported.
But with a strong support system, Kim Basinger seems to have found some answers to her lifelong issues with anxiety attacks and agoraphobia. Although she still doesn’t go out much, the actor was seen in January at an LA restaurant with her hairstylist boyfriend Mitch Stone, according to Daily Mail.

Caves and mines are home to some of the most unusual species on Earth. From unicorn fish to centipedes, these damp and often isolated environments have conditions that can produce some extraordinary-looking species, including all kinds of arachnids.
In 2013, a new species of cave-dwelling spider was found in a small mountain range outside of La Paz in Baja California Sur, Mexico. This spider was one heck of a find, measuring roughly the same size as a softball, with the name given as Califorctenus cacachilensis. This newly found specimen is related to the same group as the highly venomous Brazilian wandering spider, according to the paper describing the species.
“The exoskeleton was abnormally big and I could tell by the eye pattern that it was in a group of spiders, wandering spiders from the Family Ctenidae,” said Jim Berrian, field entomologist at the San Diego Natural History Museum and co-author of the study, in a statement.
The team thought that the spider was probably nocturnal, so returned to the cave at night to catch a glimpse of the whopper.
“When I saw these spiders for the first time, I was very impressed by their size,” said spider expert Maria Luisa Jimenez, a researcher at Centro de Investigaciones Biológicas del Noroeste. “In all my experience over the years collecting spiders on the peninsula, I had never seen a spider this large. I suspected that something new was waiting to be described."
Researchers also went a step further than uncovering just one new species of mine spider, when in February 2023, a team found seven new species of troglobitic spiders in a cave in Israel. Different species inhabited different sections of the cave and had differences in their vision based on how much light was available in each niche within the cave.
Mine spiders could be helpful to humans too. In November 2019, a study was published that indicated that two species of Arctic wolf spiders in Greenland acted as bioindicators of metal contamination in Arctic mine sites, particularly for silver and cadmium. This could help inform policy decisions related to the environmental concerns around heavy metal contaminants and pollution.
According to a Newsweek article, around 1,000 species of spider are thought to live in caves and mines across the world. From the giant huntsman to the new Brazilian species, and those hiding in Mexican caves, these spiders can do everything from hunting to helping inform policy – and some of them don’t even need eyes to do it.

Diffraction grating, component of optical devices consisting of a surface ruled with close, equidistant, and parallel lines for the purpose of resolving light into spectra. A grating is said to be a transmission or reflection grating according to whether it is transparent or mirrored—that is, whether it is ruled on glass or on a thin metal film deposited on a glass blank.;Diffraction refers to various phenomena that occur when a wave encounters an obstacle or a slit. It is defined as the bending of waves around the corners of an obstacle or through an aperture into the region of geometrical shadow of the obstacle/aperture. The diffracting object or aperture effectively becomes a secondary source of the propagating wave.;The Diffraction Grating.

Thriller writers’ characters meet in ‘FaceOff’
In “FaceOff” (Simon & Schuster), nearly two dozen authors take their most popular characters and have them interact in 11 stories, edited by David Baldacci.
The anthology opens with Dennis Lehane’s Patrick Kenzie working alongside Michael Connelly’s Harry Bosch. Other authors who have their series characters working together include Jeffery Deaver’s Lincoln Rhyme with John Sandford’s Lucas Davenport, Steve Berry’s Cotton Malone with James Rollins’ Gray Pierce, and Joseph Finder’s Nick Heller meeting Lee Child’s Jack Reacher in a bar.
One of the drawbacks to a short story collection is that some of the tales cram too much information and plot into 30 pages or less, making the reader wish there was an entire novel to explore the characters and narrative. This is abundantly clear in all these tales.
Each is a fun romp, but just when things get interesting, the story is over. Having each author work together to write 11 novels is obviously out of the question, so having them write short stories is the next best thing.
Familiarity with the authors and their creations is a huge plus in reading this collection, but not knowing a particular character or writer should not be a deterrent.
While each story has its own charm, the first story with L.A. Detective Harry Bosch trying to navigate his way around Boston is a terrific fish-out-of-water story.
It’s not clear if newcomers to particular authors will feel compelled to seek out other works by those writers. Still, the collection is solid, and International Thriller Writers Inc. succeeds in showcasing some great collaborations and stories.
