We have already described both the original route from the Weiser area to the Cambridge Valley, and the central variant from Emmett north to the Little Weiser River and beyond. Both the continuation of the Goodale North from the lower Weiser area, and the variant north from Emmett, saw less early traffic than the part of the road that continued on to the Olds Ferry, crossing into Oregon, but both were the legitimate routes on to the upper Weiser River valley and to the Brownlee Ferry crossing of the Snake River.
We do repeat the fact of the probable little use of the “Midvale Hill” route for some years after Goodale, even though speculation in some written accounts from the past suggest more extensive use of this route than the present evidence and primary accounts support. Several undocumented written statements, claiming the road followed the path of U.S. 95, have been found, but the surveyor’s evidence and the lack of primary accounts of that area traveled leave an important question about the amount of early use in following the original Goodale route. On the other hand the use of the variant through Crane Creek has now been better documented and included in information presented in this paper.
Little more is needed to be said here, but the Crane Creek route north, which we have identified and often implied was a Goodale variant, carried emigrant traffic for several years. The evidence of the deep and well-worn old ruts, found in many places along the present road as well as miles of ruts across unchanged areas along the route, speak to the long and varied use of the trail there. Though Goodale did not lead his train through that route, there is a strong possibility that he had before traveled through there, and thus he knew that it would not be appropriate for wagons until route improvements were made!
While the Goodale Train was waiting in the later Salubria area and before building the road to the Brownlee Ferry, some freight packers going from Umatilla to Boise found them there. They advised them about improving the trail to the Brownlee Ferry to get the wagons through. This information suggests that they knew the area and may have followed the Emmett area pack trail. Packers were using that route earlier than the time of the Goodale Train! We are not told in the account by Moses Splawn how he and his “Grimes party” mining group, traveling with Goodale, later returned to the Boise Basin. They brought 50 packers from Walla Walla with them, and it is believed that they returned by this central trail and may have been the first miners to follow that route. They would then have known about the route. Splawn wrote that the larger party arrived back in the Basin in October 1862, and Pioneer City was begun on Grimes Creek. W. W. Lloyd and Mrs. Edna A. Melhorn, “Baker County Historical Society,” Oregon Historical Quarterly, V. 49 (1948). p. 306; Hiram T. French, “Discovery of Gold,” Chapter 5, … Continue reading
Goodale appeared to know where he was going all the way to the Snake River at the Brownlee site, and did not attempt that which would have been too difficult for wagons. As Merrill and Wells wrote, and which was quoted earlier, Goodale did know “enough about that country to avoid traps there,” Merrill and Wells, p. 11. Jewell included a written account of the Goodale Train travel, written by Dunham Wright. The later emigrants and miners that followed him across much of his whole Idaho Cutoff, but were soon able to follow that central route rather than going the longer distance, appear to justify the idea that it became a Goodale Cutoff variant.

John Buteyn, clinical assistant professor of music; director of popular music, music industry, and music technology programs; director of Gold Top Music Group
While growing up in western New York, John Buteyn didn’t know what his life’s profession was supposed to be, though he was sure it would involve music. Finding the definitive focus was difficult because he enjoyed all facets of the art form: performing, producing, organizing, and writing. And he was good at it all, though not superior in a particular area to make the decision obvious.
Like every student, Buteyn kept searching for who he was supposed to become.
“Even though I had played piano since I was 6 years old, I knew I didn’t want to be a pianist,” Buteyn said. “I picked up the bass guitar in middle school and started playing in bands and in churches, and that got me doing sound in churches and I loved it. I loved music and listening to records and figuring out what they were doing.”
He was passionate about all of it. Even when attending Houghton College to earn degrees in music and business administration, he still couldn’t pick an angle or even a genre to build a career. Because he loved learning about all aspects, he continued to graduate school at Georgia Southern University.
There, the light bulb of his future finally illuminated, though still in an unexpected way.
“As part of my assistantship, I was teaching undergrad classes, and I just loved it,” he said. “I never expected that, but I started adjunct teaching and did that for a few years, still working studios and live shows, in all sorts of genres with lots of late nights.”
What Buteyn understands now is that this path was preparing him to become something new, something that wasn’t even being dreamed of at the time — at least not in the academic world. That position was still six years — and about eight hours —away, though in a place he already knew.
Buteyn had purchased equipment at Sweetwater Sound in Fort Wayne and even attended GearFest once. During that visit, he noticed the Purdue University Fort Wayne Sweetwater Music Center and took a tour, even thinking for a split-second it might be sweet to work there one day.
Buteyn was teaching at Bethel University in McKenzie, Tennessee, when he and his wife Kaylan decided it was time to grow some more. He started applying for positions, but then COVID-19 canceled most of the searches. He became a PFW finalist during online interviews.
“I still got to come up and visit campus, which was weird because there were no students around,” he recalled. “I could still tell this was going to be a great next step, and I knew I’d be joining a great team.”
Buteyn was hired as a clinical assistant professor of music, director of popular music, music industry, and music technology programs, and became director of the new Gold Top Music Group. Finally, he found the career that fit all of his passions and allowed use of all of his skills.
Part of that included guiding the development of the Gold Top Music Group, a PFW Center of Excellence. Gold Top is essentially a student-managed record label that teaches them to work in various forms of the industry such as talent, production, business, and marketing.
“This is a hands-on experience that students don’t get in any other programs anywhere that is going to set us apart,” Buteyn said. “This offers something unique.”
The program isn’t about making money now, but training students to make the decisions that produce successful efforts as professionals in a few years. It’s the ultimate internship working in all aspects and helping performers such as indie-alt singer Bear Case and the duo Man of the Flood develop their own talents.
And Buteyn is right there next to the students in the studio, exploring, expanding, and especially sharing his own knowledge while encouraging their abilities in a no-limits style. This is where everyone is supposed to experiment and grow in the limitless possibilities of music, sometimes even the professor.
“I love teaching and working with students, and I love watching their drive and their passion for music develop,” Buteyn said. “It’s very creative, but still very technical, and I think that’s the balance I love about this career. The studio is a great place to be, and inspiring young musicians and producers in a studio, to me, is amazing.”
Finally, Buteyn found exactly where he’s meant to be.

Like most couples who’ve gotten married in the past year, Norman and Selina’s wedding was not what they had originally envisioned. There were countless changes – including the date, location, guest list, officiant, etc. But it was perfect. I have never photographed such a laid-back, relaxed wedding before. When there are only 10 people, it doesn’t matter if things aren’t on schedule.
We started off with a first look where Norman and Selina read letters to each other before seeing each other. It was such a beautiful and emotional moment. After the first look, they had their ceremony. I have always wanted to photograph a wedding in a forest, so this was one of my dreams come true!
It was such a treat to be able to take photos for however long we wanted to without having to stick to any kind of timeline. I had the most amazing couple to work with, the scenery was stunning, and the light was perfect. What more could I ask for? Most of the snow had melted the day before, but we still found several areas with snow which added so much to the photos.
After doing most of the photos at Bird’s Hill, we finished off at the St. Norbert ruins where we were blessed with a stunning sunset. I was on such a high after this wedding and wish I could photograph weddings like this every week!

WASHINGTON, Aug. 31 (UPI) — A study found that injecting a greenhouse gas into older oilfields could squeeze out millions more barrels of crude, the U.S. Department of Energy said.
The DOE said the results reported by the University of Kansas established the feasibility of using carbon dioxide to extend the productivity of U.S. oilfields while at the same time permanently keeping the gas out of the atmosphere.
The study focused on the Arbuckle Formation in Kansas, home to various mature oilfields where production peaked in the 1950s. The area is occupied primarily by small producers and typical of several other fields in the state.
Researchers used core samples from the Arbuckle to simulate a process in which carbon dioxide is pumped deep underground and where it mixes with crude oil. The result of the process, known as near-miscible CO2 flooding, is a swelling of the oil that pushes it toward the production well.
The DOE said in a written statement the results mean as much as 500 million barrels of crude could someday be recovered from Kansas fields.
The next phase of the project will be to better map the Arbuckle Formation.

UC San Francisco has been awarded one of three Cooperative Agreements from the U.S. Bureau of the Health Professions to establish the UCSF Health Workforce Research Center (HWRC).
According to director Joanne Spetz, PhD, the task of the center will be to examine the supply, demand, distribution and capacity of the health care workforce to meet the needs of older adults and persons with disabilities, many of whom will be likely to prefer receiving long-term care at home or in community-based settings.
Joanne Spetz, PhD
“The aging of the U.S. and global populations – the so-called ‘Silver Tsunami’ – means that an increasing number of us will require long-term care when we can no longer care for ourselves,” said Spetz, a professor of economics at the UCSF Philip R. Lee Institute for Health Policy Studies in the Department of Family and Community Medicine and associate director of research strategy at the UCSF Center for the Health Professions.
“Simply managing the activities of daily living often requires ongoing care from a combination of licensed and unlicensed health workers,” she observed. “We believe that the demand for these workers will increase significantly in the coming years. Health policy decision-makers need tools and strategies to ensure that the US has an adequate workforce to meet our long-term care needs.”
Spetz will lead the UCSF HWRC with deputy director Susan Chapman, PhD, RN, associate professor in the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the UCSF School of Nursing. The center represents a collaboration among the Institute for Health Policy Studies, the UCSF Center for the Health Professions and the UCSF School of Nursing. Spetz and Chapman also are affiliated faculty at the Center for the Health Professions.
Susan Chapman, PhD, RN
In its inaugural year, the center will conduct three major studies and respond to requests for data and information from the Bureau of Health Professions.
- The first study will explore differences in training requirements for Personal Care Aides, who provide assistance to older adults and people with disabilities in their homes and in long-term care facilities. There are nearly one million people working in this field in the U.S., but there is little consistency in the training requirements across states.
- The second study will extend existing prediction models that forecast demand for long-term care to understand how future changes in the settings in which such care is delivered translates to changes in the need for long-term care workers.
- The third study will analyze job mobility of long-term care workers, specifically examining wage differences that appear between entry and exit from this field. The analysis will identify the occupations and industries from which long-term care workers are drawn, and the fields that workers enter if they leave long-term care.
The new center will actively engage all five of UCSF’s health profession schools, and will draw from UCSF’s deep bench of long-term care health policy researchers. Additional expertise will come from collaborations with colleagues from PHI (formerly the Paraprofessional Healthcare Institute) and the George Washington University. The center will be guided by an expert panel of long-term care researchers and state and federal policy makers, and will seek input from many community advocate groups.
Said Chapman, “Our studies, using state-of-the-art analytics and modeling techniques, will complement the high-quality research to be generated by the other Health Workforce Research Centers, and help the United States prepare for our future health care needs.”
UCSF is a leading university dedicated to promoting health worldwide through advanced biomedical research, graduate-level education in the life sciences and health professions, and excellence in patient care. It includes top-ranked graduate schools of dentistry, medicine, nursing and pharmacy, a graduate division with nationally renowned programs in basic biomedical, translational and population sciences, as well as a preeminent biomedical research enterprise and two top-ranked hospitals, UCSF Medical Center and UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital.

Royal Mail smoothed its path to the stock market with a £200 million sweetener for prospective shareholders in what is set to be the biggest privatisation since the early 1990s.
The Government said that Royal Mail would pay a maiden dividend of £133 million next July, with a view to future payouts of £200 million annually.
With a market capitalisation expected to be about £3 billion, that would put Royal Mail’s dividend yield far ahead of privatised European peers such as Deutsche Post DHL.
Investors said that the payout, and the promise of a progressive dividend policy, would bolster support for the initial public offering. Royal Mail workers will be granted 10 per cent of the company through free shares and staff will also be…

|Quoting BA787 (Reply 3):|
It surprised me they didnt book through an alliance, they gone BA-SQ-QF. If I were them I would have booked either oneworld from MAN, or Star from LBA
there are not really any "alliance" tickets at present. I think its bizarre to be honest how in this ever increasing world of airline aliances, airlines do not share fares. The only such of these to Australia is the BA
/QF alliance, but it is generally quite expensive, and the service is not as good as SQ
. However being a travel agent, I must admit it is unusual for an SQ
ticket plus a QF
ticket on the trans-tasman flights to NZ
to work out cheaper than an all BA
/QF journey. Maybe your relatives did not realise this, or they were uncertain of their plans when they booked the international flights.
At work when I do Australia bookings (which is 65% of the time, being an Aussie travel specialist), I generally use QF
for international and domestics, or use other airlines in conjunction with Virgin Blue.
I hope this is of use!
|Quoting Zvezda (Reply 2):|
There might be lower fares on SQ via LHR in Y, but not in C or F.
The Manchester flights in economy do go very full permanently, its difficult to ever find availability in the cheap fare classes. Im not sure about business, but from what I have heard the yields are very low in this cabin, hence why the route has been cut back, and also why MH
dropped there non-stop Manchester service.

Shaker Heights Municipal Judge K.J. Montgomery moved her courtroom to the school's auditorium to educate students on how the court system works and to show them real-life examples of what could happen if they make poor choices.
About 120 students, the majority of them seniors, watched more than a dozen court cases for crimes including theft, domestic violence, driving under the influence and drug abuse. It was the fourth time the school has served as a courtroom for defendants.
The court serves Beachwood, Hunting Valley, Pepper Pike, Shaker Heights, and University Heights.
"When you get involved with the justice system, it kind of controls you," Montgomery said to students as she explained the importance of making smart decisions.
The students listened to stories from actual defendants who spoke with students about not following the same path they did.
Delrone Brown, 38, was arrested last year on a domestic violence warrant from 2005. He battled with homelessness and alcoholism before becoming a full-time college student. He urged students not to be like him.
"When you drink like I did, it leads to a lot of bad decisions," Brown said afterward. "I owed it to the students and to myself to tell them about the consequences for my behavior."
The lesson was not lost on 18-year-old student Shyera Jones. She said prior to the court project she had studied what happens to people who commit crimes but she got a better understanding from seeing the court in action.
"The court really has the power to take away your normal freedoms if you don't follow the law," Jones said. "I'm not into a lot of the things people were arrested for but this keeps my eyes open, and I'm more conscious about not giving in to peer pressure."
The defendants who shared their stories with students benefited in a small way. Montgomery said they received reduced fines or jail time. A number of the cases on Friday involved defendants who were only a few years removed from high school.
Max Selker, 19, of Cleveland, was in court because he was charged with drug possession last year in Beachwood. He said he was in high school a short time ago and wants to get his life back on track.
"I wanted other people my age to see that one minute you can be on top of the world and then the next, you're right back at the bottom if you made a poor choice like me," Selker said.
Educators at the school said since the prom and graduation season is almost underway, the court program was a good way to educate the students and to also remind them to be careful.
"For some of the kids, this is an eye opener because they realize that their mistakes can come back to haunt them," said Charles Longo, who chairs the school's social studies department.

The former business manager of three parishes within the Archdiocese of Cincinnati has been accused of embezzling more than $350,000. The media reports that a lawsuit filed in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court alleges that Thomas Martin “failed to deposit money into parish accounts, forged checks, paid phony bills to entities he controlled, skimmed from parish collections, abused credit cards and paid himself an excessive salary.” Martin worked for Holy Family, St. John the Evangelist and St. John the Baptist parishes.
A spokesman for the Church said that the Archdiocese has been “working closely” with county prosecutors, but that Martin has not been criminally charged. It bears repeating that persons being investigated for a white collar crime such as embezzlement should contact an experienced defense attorney as soon as possible. In our experience, the earlier a criminal defense lawyer is involved in the process, the higher the likelihood the attorney can reach a positive resolution to the allegations by working directly with investigators, employers or law enforcement before charges are actually filed.
The spokesman for the Archdiocese also said that the Church has been “tightening up our finances for some time,” and that a full-time auditor has been hired. This is a good first step, although the Church should also consider bringing in outside investigators. If a company faces a possible issue that requires an investigation, internal or government investigation, skilled investigators with law enforcement experience, such as the Lycurgus Group, can help an institution or company take the proactive steps needed to not only demonstrate the company’s desire to get to the bottom of a situation, but also to protect corporate interests. A prompt and thorough investigation will show a commitment to correcting possible mistakes or wrongdoing by employees, and give decision-makers documentation from a reliable, unbiased, third-party to help make appropriate decisions.

|Title: ||Effect of chip dimension and substrate thickness on the solder joint reliability of plastic ball grid array packages|
|Authors: ||Lee, Ricky Shi-Wei|
Lau, J. H.
Printed circuit boards
|Issue Date: ||1997 |
|Citation: ||Circuit world, v. 23, no. 1, 1997, p. 16-19|
|Abstract: ||This paper presents a non-linear numerical study to investigate the effect of chip dimension and substrate thickness on the solder joint reliability of plastic ball grid array (PBGA) packages. The package under investigation was a 225-pin full-grid PBGA assembly. The diagonal cross-section of the PBGA together with the printed circuit board (PCB) was modelled by plane-strain elements. A uniform thermal loading was applied and the solder joints were stressed due to the mismatch of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and constructions of the PCB assembly. The effective stress and accumulated plastic strain of solder balls against various chip dimensions and substrate thicknesses were evaluated as an index for the reliability of solder joints. The results of this study are helpful for electronics packaging engineers to optimise the geometry of plastic ball grid array packages.|

A grand stately home in the care of the National Trust. This is a must visit destination where you will step back in time and marvel at the splendour of the interior decor and enjoy serene walks in its extensive parkland.
No heating. No internet. Dark rooms and there is no complaint register. Lock is kaput so each time the receptionist has to accompany you to open your room. NOT WORTH THE MONEY NOR EFFORT. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. the staff keep nodding to whatever you say and the manager caters to only foreigners (read white) and never bothers to address yAour complaints. I booked for one night on 29 of January , as the next day was our anniversary. why can't they say that room lock does not function, there is no heating no wifi if this is not cheating , what is?
Please be careful when booking this establishment. The room you get will be nothing like you expect from the website and you will not be able to look at it until after you have paid. I know this as I booked a room for my partner and my daughter. This was their experience. The room was in poor condition, mouldy and dirty and the door was insecure. It was like a portacabin. Neither of them felt safe there and so they left before they had slept there and moved elsewhere. I cancelled the booking, which was for two nights, and the management have refused to refund anything. Booking.com also tried to sort this out for me and failed to get anything back from the hotel. BE VERY WARY!!
I've stayed in dozens of hotels and while this hotel is conveniently located for getting into London and has beautiful rooms, reception, a decent gym and dining room, it has two super annoying things that would put me off staying here again. 1. Pay-for Parking. I know this is a business but parking should be free for guests. 2. Very poor room WiFi. When I say very poor, I do mean nearly non-existent. You can connect but the download speed is abysmal and for me that's a real deal breaker because I wanted to get work done while I was here but to do so I have to go into the common area. As I have my son with me, I would have liked to be able to work in the room when he was asleep as I work until 3:00 am sometimes. Also the room was very hot and took a bit of fiddling with the temperature gauge to get it to a liveable temperature.. Breakfast was OK, not spectacular for a four star. But then "English Breakfasts" are usually very boring compared to the equivalent 4 star in Spain, Thailand or Portugal. This was the case here too. There were the standard things to choose from anyway.
More hostel than hotel..Don't stay there... Honestly, just pay an extra £20 and go to a hotel that provides drinking water from the taps and modern decorated rooms with comfy beds, because you won't get any of that from this place.
We enjoyed our stay here. Breakfast was good. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the staff were polite, helpful and friendly. The hotel is 10 minutes walk from Twickenham railway station, and 15 from shops, restaurants and riverside walks. Not far from attractions such as Kew Gardens, Hampton Court, Syon Park and Osterley Park.

The culture of microalgae requires rigorous control of all growth factors: nutrients, pH, temperature, and light. Among these factors, the light that directly influences photosynthesis mechanism is an important factor in defining optimal conditions for the culture. In this study, the effects of various intensities and its photoperiods on the growth and biochemical composition (carbohydrates, proteins) of two freshwater green algae (Tetranephris brasiliensis and Scenedesmus sp) were studied. Three different light intensities (50, 100 μmol m-2 s-1 and daylight) and three photoperiod cycles (24:0, 18:06 light: dark and natural photoperiod) is launched at a constant temperature of 23°C. Microalgal growth was measured using cell count, specific growth rate and OD in three. The results showed that under the light intensity of 100 μmol m-2 s-1 and photoperiod of 18 hour light: 6 hour dark cycle, Tetranephris brasiliensis, Scenedesmus sp. was found to grow favorably with a maximum cell concentration of 2.88 × 107 cells/mL, which corresponds to the growth rate of 0.253 d-1 for Tetranephris brasiliensis and 2.56 × 107 cells/mL which corresponds to the growth rate of 0.190 d-1 for Scenedesmus sp. These results confirm the real effect of photoperiod on the microalgae growth rate and show a good correlation between the absorbance measurements and cell concentrations.
Microalga; Tetranephris brasiliensi; Scenedesmus sp; Light intensity; Photoperiod; Growth rate biochemical composition
Microalgae are an autotrophic organism that consumes light energy and inorganic nutrients and produces biomass rich in value-added products . The biotechnological potential of microalgae is related to the fact that their biomass contains valuable components, including lipids, starch, and alkanes .
There are between 200,000 and several million microalgal species . Due to the increasing demand for microalgal biomass, a process-oriented strain selection supports the use of either indigenous strains from the respective production site or strains adapted to stress .
Environmental factors that exert an impact on microalgal growth include temperature, pH, salinity, inorganic carbon availability, light, silicate (for diatoms) and nutrient composition in the culture system . Among these factors, the light that directly influences photosynthesis mechanism is an important factor in defining optimal conditions for the culture , culture conditions have a substantial effect on the algal proliferation rate and biomass production.
In this regard, the present study focuses on determining the effect of light intensity and photoperiod on growth and biochemical composition (carbohydrates, proteins) of two green algae species Tetranephris brasiliensis. and Scenedesmus sp. in laboratory scale.
Materials and Methods
Microalgae cultures and medium
Two different Chlorophyceaen species were isolated from estuary (longest natural watercourse in Algeria) and were identified as Tetranephris brasiliensis. and Scenedesmus sp. These species were chosen for our work because they were well adapted to laboratory conditions. Cultures were unialgal. They were grown in the f/2 medium prepared in sterilized natural freshwater and 2 L Erlenmeyer flask with 1 L of working volume and air bubbling, under three different light intensities (50, 100 μmol m-2 s-1 and daylight) and three different photoperiod cycles (24/0, 18/06 light: dark and natural photoperiod) at constant temperature of 24 ± 1°C and pH 8.
Each experiment was performed in three replicates for the three different photoperiod cycles.
Measurement of microalgae growth
Algal growth was measured by daily changes in optical density (OD) at 680 nm (UV 500 UV-Visible Spectro, Spectronic Unicam) and cell number was monitored using malassez counting chamber.
The specific growth rate (μ) and generation time were calculated from equations A and B as described :
Where n2 and n1 are the cell number concentration at the times t2 and t1 respectively. The time required to duplicate the cell number division rate (K) was calculated according to the equation:
Determination of carbohydrate concentration
Determination of proteins concentration
The extraction of proteins was performed using alkali . The alkali extraction was repeated 3 times, the final repeat was heated at 100°C for 10 min to complete extraction of residual proteins.
To test possible statistical differences between the proteins concentration, carbohydrates, and growth rate, the data were subjected to one- factor analysis of variance (ANOVA), When the variances are homogeneous, the analysis is a parametric ANOVA test 1 (p ≤ 0.05). Otherwise, the analysis is a nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test. To determine whether the differences between the averages are significant, we used Tukey's test in the case of ANOVA 1 and the Mann-Whitney test in the case of Kruskal-Wallis.
Results and Discussion
Microalgae are photosynthetic organisms. They assimilate inorganic carbon for conversion into organic matter. Light is the source of energy which drives this process, the light may be natural or supplied by fluorescent bulbs . In this regard, the current study focused on the effect of light intensity and photoperiod on growth an biochemical composition .
FIG. 1 and 2 illustrate the cell growth rate of Tetranephris brasiliensis. and Scenedesmus sp. respectively at three light intensities (50, 100 μmol m-2 s-1 and daylight) and three different photoperiod cycles (24/0, 18/06 light: dark and natural photoperiod) for 12 days. The cultures were sampled at a 24-hour interval. The results revealed that the cell growth curves for the three light intensities are not similar. The effect of photoperiods on the growth of Tetranephris brasiliensis. and Scenedesmus sp. in the batch culture at 100 μmol m-2 s-1 were significant (p ≤ 0.05). The cell concentration reached the maximum value (2.88 × 107 cells/mL which corresponds to the growth rate of 0.253 d-1 for Tetranephris brasiliensis (TABLE 1) and 2.56 × 107 cells/mL which corresponds to the growth rate of 0.190 d-1 for Scenedesmus sp. (TABLE 2) under a photoperiod of 18:06 light/dark cycles, microalgae needs a light/dark regime for productive photosynthesis, it needs light period for a photochemical phase to produce Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Oxidase (NADPH) and also needs dark for biochemical phase synthesize essential molecules for growth . The cell concentration was significantly (p ≤ 0.05) lower in 24:0 light/dark regimes compared to 18:06 light/ dark regimes under the same light intensity, too high light intensity may result in photo-inhibition and photooxidation and can be stressful, leading to reduced growth or death while low light levels (insufficient light) will become growth-limiting microalgae is under photo limitation condition. The growth of microalgae becomes inhibited when the light intensity is increased beyond the saturation light intensity .

Biochemical compositional analysis of microbial biomass is a useful tool that can provide insight into the behavior of an organism and changes in its adaptational response . Biochemical composition of cells that includes carbohydrates and proteins can provide a valuable indication of the physiology and metabolic status of an organism.
Under light limited conditions, the protein percentage increased with increasing irradiance (FIG. 5). Protein percentage increased (p ≤ 0.05) from 21.35% to 42.54% of the organic content for Tetranephris brasiliensis and from 26.91% to 45.58% for Scenedesmus sp., As a whole, the carbohydrates were a most abundant component of Tetranephris brasiliensis and Scenedesmus sp. Carbohydrate percentage decreased with increasing irradiance from 8.28% to 16.57% and 10.19% to 21.1% for Tetranephris brasiliensis and Scenedesmus sp respectively. The response of an organism to its living conditions, such as light, temperature, and pH can be gleaned by monitoring changes in these gross indicators with respect to growth and survival.
FIG 5: Carbohydrates and proteins content of Tetranephris brasiliensis (1) and Scenedesmus sp. (2) under different light intensity (50 μmol m-2 s-1 and 100 μmol m-2 s-1) and different photoperiods lengths (daylight, 18/06 hour and 24/0 hour light: dark cycles).
Carbohydrates were often the major energy stores, changes in which can be indicative of how the organism perceives its environment and plans to adapt, changes in total protein can reflect the rate of metabolic activity. Cellular content of protein and carbohydrates in microalgae can be varied through variation of photoperiod .
Tetranephris brasiliensis and Scenedesmus sp. grows best at a light intensity of 100 μmol m-2 s-1 and the combination of 18/06 light: dark cycle with maximum cell density and specific growth rate. In contrast, Tetranephris brasiliensis and Scenedesmus sp. showed a gradual decrease in cell density and specific growth rate when the photoperiod cycle was extended to 24/0 hour light exposure at the same light intensity. The biochemical composition of cells was significantly changed depending on light intensities and photoperiod as well as cultivation time. Protein percentage increased with increasing irradiance and carbohydrate percentage decreased with increasing irradiance.

It’s one thing to paint the town red, but it’s quite another to paint the town yellow.
Little, bright yellow fish have appeared at storm drains throughout Harrison Hot Springs. These fish are the work of the Miami River Streamkeepers Society (MRSS), who painted the golden fish to remind the public that all storm drains empty into the Miami River.
MRSS member Janne Perrin told The Observer in an email that these fish were meant to be repainted for quite some time, but pandemic-related restrictions prevented the repainting of existing fish and the painting of new fish at new subdivisions throughout the village.
“Storm drains collect runoff from roads and parking lots and empty into the Miami River,” Perrin stated. “Runoff does not go into the domestic sewage system. People who do not realize this often allow oil, swimming pool water, and other toxic household or industrial compounds to get into storm drains.”
The runoff from the roads contain sediment, oil, particles from car exhaust and other materials that prove harmful to the ecosystem along the Miami River.
Members of MRSS haven’t completed their mission as they are waiting on a new supply of yellow paint from the Fisheries and Oceans community advisor. Those interested in painting can find out about the next session online at www.miamiriverstreamkeepers.ca or leave a message with Perrin at 604-796-9182.
MRSS has partnered with the village of Harrison Hot Springs in environmental restoration and awareness projects since 2006. These projects include removing trash, planting indigenous plants and caring for the local ecosystem.

Imagine for a moment your next door neighbor breaks into your home and attempts to assault you for no apparent reason. You would obviously attempt to protect yourself and perhaps fight back, and certainly call the police. However if you’re a U.S. Custom and Border Agent patrolling your side of the border apparently you’re fare game to be harassed and perhaps assaulted, and even shot at by foreign invaders, without so much as a formal complaint, and this seems to be exactly what is taking place along our southwestern border.
Based on documents obtained from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Judicial Watch has uncovered the details of an incident on June 26, 2014, in which a Mexican government helicopter crossed into U.S. airspace and opened fire on U.S. Border Patrol personnel located in a clearly marked position. The CBP documents were released in response to a July 9, 2014, Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
And apparently this isn’t an isolated incident, in fact this has been going on for decades, DHS records show that Mexican military incursions occur quite often and regularly go unpunished by the U.S. government. For instance, the DHS documents reveal 226 incursions by Mexican personnel into the U.S. between 1996 and 2005. In 2007 alone, 25 such incursions occurred along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Once again we’re witnessing a systemic break down by those in authority to protect or vital interests and preserve our sovereignty as a nation, what is even more troubling is that documents detailing intentional border incursions by Mexican military and other government personnel have occurred in both the Bush and Obama administrations with little if any consequences directed at the Mexican government.
The U.S. Border Patrol Agents were parked approximately 100 yards north of the border on the U.S. side when they observed a Mexican LEA helicopter cross north into the U.S. for approximately 100 yards, and observed two rounds being shot from the helicopter which landed approximately 15 yards to the side of one of the unmarked Border Patrol Vehicles (FOB) they were driving. Also, there were two marked vehicles at the scene next to the unmarked as well.

The students at Hailsham are like many other students of their age. Friendships are very important to them. People argue with each other, make up with each other or simply change their friendship groups. However, what is different for Kathy and her friends at Hailsham is that apart from the guardians, all they have is each other. Therefore, their friendships become more important and much more intense.
Ishiguro’s presentation of the friendship groups in Never Let Me Go is very realistic. He portrays Ruth as a typical leader, the girl many other students look up to, and Tommy as the student who is often goaded into making a fool of himself for the entertainment of his friends. Ishiguro also shows that as well as having silly quarrels with each other,
But the next second Ruth gave a little laugh and said: ‘The idiot! (Kathy), the students also care for each other and offer support when it is needed,
'It’s nothing to worry about,' I said before the silence got humiliating for him. 'It’ll come off. If you can’t get it off yourself, then just take it to Miss Jody.' (Kathy to Tommy). In a way, Hailsham is a glue that bonds its students together. Even when they fall out, they will still be tied together because of their shared history, shared experiences, and the fact that they know so much about one another.
There are moments during the novel when Ruth hurts Kathy greatly. During their time at The Cottages, Ruth tries hard to be like one of the veterans and as a result, often snubs Kathy in the process or humiliates her by pretending to have forgotten an event that Kathy remembers quite clearly. Ruth’s behaviour is partly to blame for Kathy deciding to leave The Cottages to begin her career as a carer. However by the end of the novel, Kathy has become Ruth’s carer and their fondness for each other has returned.
In Never Let Me Go Kazuo Ishiguro shows the theme of friendship through:
When Kathy is a carer and begins to be given the option of picking some of her patients, she begins to seek out donors who used to go to Hailsham School.
… I started seeking out for my donors people from the past, and whenever I could, people from Hailsham.
Kathy’s use of the word
seeking suggests that she actively searches for past students from Hailsham in the hope of being able to care for them. This shows that friendship is of real importance to her and that she has not forgotten the students she was at school with.
Despite having their differences and not parting on the most amicable of terms, Kathy decides that the right thing to do would be to become Ruth’s carer. Her past friendship with Ruth means more to Kathy than any quarrel they may have had in their youth and she does all she can to make sure that she is
assigned to Ruth.
She already had a carer assigned to her at the time, and I remember it taking a bit of nerve on my part. But in the end I managed it, and the instant I saw her again at that recovery centre in Dover, all our differences – while they didn’t exactly vanish – seemed not nearly as important as all the other things: like the fact that we’d grown up together at Hailsham, the fact that we knew and remembered things no one else did. (Kathy)
Later when Kathy meets Tommy for the first time in many years their closeness is obvious,
My heart had done a little leap, because in a single stroke, with that little laugh of agreement, it felt as though Tommy and I had come close together again... (Kathy)
After a considerable amount of time apart, the friendship between Kathy, Ruth and Tommy is still strong. Ishiguro shows how they remain close because of their shared experiences and because ultimately they were the only ones who really cared for each other. With no actual family to turn to, friendship between the students was of the utmost importance.

grrr... unfortunately, even with a walkthrough the final battle is currently impossible. first, it takes about eighty tries to even get the hourglass drawing to activate. second, once I've done it once, I absolutely CANNOT trigger a second glowy golden orb. the walkthrough says hit him until he jumps to the side, then hit him again. but when he jumps to the side, he immediately HITS ME, doing damage and making it take quite a while before I can hit him again. which means no glowy thing.
edit: although having just seen this video of using the silly spin attack on him... I STILL can't do it. And I really, really hate the game designers for making you sit through this long cutscene and pointless eye-stab repeatedly. I'm not sure I'm ever going to complete this boss battle, simply because this is ANNOYING.

When I was a kid, there were two grocery stores in town. Those on a tight budget shopped at one, those with a little more money to spare shopped at the other. In the 1960's and 70's, Moms roamed aisle by aisle, once a week, and picked up everything they needed in one fell swoop: fruits, vegetables, bread, dairy items, meats, and canned goods were all in one place. Even those families (like mine) with more than five kids didn't really vary from this routine--although in my household, Dad did the food shopping every Friday night (it was a big deal if I got to go with him and still be home in time to catch The Brady Bunch, followed by The Partridge Family on tv). And I know several very large families (10+ kids) where they required a parade of loaded shopping carts (along with a police escort to control traffic) to shop for a week's worth of groceries. Still, the routine remained the same: one store, one trip, once a week.
There are four people in my household. Four. Plus one dog and two cats. Yet, I find myself food shopping at least three times a week. And not in the same grocery store.
Yesterday, I hit my local supermarket chain for basic food staples. Then I crossed the highway to shop at the Italian grocer for meats, fresh cheese, and fish. Today on my lunch hour, I'll go to the discount store near my office for paper goods, health and beauty aids, and cleaning supplies. I have a local butcher I visit for meat prepared just the way I like it. My poor dog, who's growing old (yet, according to her vet "is in remarkably good health for her advanced age") has developed severe skin allergies and can only eat one brand and flavor of dog food. Of course, this particular hypoallergenic food is only sold in one particular specialty store, which will require another stop. I buy my produce (and some other basics) at Trader Joe's. Now, however, my daughter is working at Whole Foods and insists I have to start shopping there. Once every six weeks or so, I head to the warehouse store for bulk items. Because of my fondness for my Keurig (single-serve coffee brewer), I order my coffee and tea online.
When did food shopping become so complicated? Wasn't technology supposed to make things easier for us? I seem to have less free time and spend more of it food shopping. Even with a list, I always forget a key ingredient or someone in my household puts an empty package back on a shelf to fool me into thinking we still have plenty of that particular item. Don't you hate when you're halfway through a recipe and reach for the vanilla extract, only to find three drops left in the bottom of the bottle? Happens to me all the time. Empty boxes of microwave popcorn, cereal packages with nothing more than three Cheerios lingering in the cellophane wrap seem to find their way back into my pantry. I'll always locate two AA batteries when I need three. And let's not talk about the milk I bought yesterday that's soured even before I remove the safety seal. Or the times my husband decides he wants something unusual for dinner that requires a quick dash for one or two major items.
Does anyone remember Mr. Drucker? Sam Drucker ran the general store in both Green Acres and Petticoat Junction. I don't have a Mr. Drucker in my life, a man who knows exactly what ingredients I'll need from one week to the next and keeps them not only in stock, but ready to go the minute I walk into the store. And a tab! I don't have a tab at any store. Whipping out the debit card is often a painful experience. I don't seem capable of walking into a grocery store for one item and walking back out in possession of only that one item. Supermarket managers know exactly what they're doing when they display those bargains on the end caps.
We live in a wonderful age, chock-full of time-saving conveniences. For me, grocery shopping just isn't one of them.

Pakistan’s first formal company dedicated to offline and online gold trading was inaugurated on Tuesday.
Zakriya Gold, operating under the Zakriya Group umbrella, aims to generate about Rs2.5 trillion ($8 billion) in revenues for the national exchequer in five years.
The company claims it will provide transparent and regulated gold trading services through both online platforms and an extensive network of labs and franchises nationwide.
Gold buying and selling is not fully regulated in Pakistan and this gives way to speculative trading, under and over-invoicing, tax evasion, and black marketing.
Chairman of Zakriya Group Muhammad Shahid Zakriya said that at Zakriya Gold the buying and selling processes would be seamlessly integrated with the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) system and closely monitored through a robust tracking system.
“The buying and selling will be integrated with the system of Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) and the process will be monitored with a tracking system,” Zakriya told journalists at the company’s inauguration.
In an effort to bring regulation to a predominantly unregulated gold market in Pakistan, the company plans to establish thousands of gold labs ad franchises across Pakistan.
“We are planning to set up 2,300 gold labs and 820 franchises across Pakistan. Our calculation shows that Rs2,500 billion can be generated from this market within five years.”
Zakriya Gold is set to release daily gold rates in collaboration with the Pakistan Mercantile Exchange Company (PMEX), the country’s sole multi-commodity futures exchange. This approach marks a departure from the existing practice of rates being released by various traditional bodies.
The launch of Zakriya Gold follows the government’s recent crackdown on entities involved in the speculation and black marketing of gold prices within the local market.
Collaborating with the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), FBR, and other law enforcement agencies, this move seeks to instill transparency and regulation in Pakistan’s gold trading sector.
The establishment has been approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan and PMEX.

Potluck Dishes That Scream "Summer!"
It's hard to come up with a more versatile summer potluck item than roast chicken, since it's delicious hot, at room temperature or even cold. Plus, it's one of those uncomplicated entrees that feels at once familiar and special—and this version hits both notes beautifully. A tandoori chicken, it gets its spice from a blend of cumin seeds, sweet and smoked paprikas, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, peppercorns, salt and red pepper flakes. You simply marinate drumsticks, thighs, breasts and wings in yogurt mixed with the aforementioned spices; and roast.

A female Army National Guard soldier who served overseas for a number of years committed suicide after repeatedly being raped and sexually assaulted while on duty. Despite reporting the crimes that took place, her superiors did nothing to support or help their soldier.
At the young age of 29, Staff Sgt. Morgan Robinson took her own life in 2018. Two years before her suicide, she was sexually assaulted while being stationed in Kuwait. Four months before her death, her supposed comrades also gang-raped her in Afghanistan.
Robinson’s mother Debbie has finally spoken out about her opinion of the lack of accountability and failure to seek justice for the horrible suffering her daughter went through while serving her country.
Debbie insists that the failure to stop the torturous abuse her daughter experienced more than once ultimately robbed her of her life.
“To think that that’s what took her life — that’s what broke her. They wanted her body. And they took her soul,” Debbie told CBS investigative reporters.
According to her mother, ever since Morgan was young, she had already wanted to serve in the U.S. Armed Forces. She finally did it in 2010, when she turned 21 and enlisted in the Army National Guard.
On her first deployment to the Middle East, the horror that Morgan experience was not in a battle with the foreign enemy, but with her own comrades. She “was sexually assaulted and continually harassed by one of her superiors.”
Although Morgan reported the multiple sexual assaults she had suffered under the hands of her superior, her chain of command did “nothing” to protect her from further assaults or punish her perpetrator, said her mother.
“She got nothing,” Debbie said.
While Morgan was engaged to get married and had a child back home, she was sent to Afghanistan on the same deployment.
Assaulted further in Afghanistan, she was gang-raped by a group of soldiers. Scared and traumatized to report this atrocious crime, Morgan committed suicide four months later.
Debbie had known that her daughter was “very scared” to report the gang rape “because they threatened her.”
“And number two, she knew that it wouldn’t go anywhere. Nothing happened in Kuwait with the sexual assault and the harassment, so why would they do something, you know, in Afghanistan?” Debbie said.
Debbie received a report from the Army when they finally investigated her daughter’s tragic death – but all the crucial details to all crimes committed by other members of the Army were blacked out.
Those sections that weren’t redacted read: “Sergeant Robinson suffered sexual, physical, and psychological trauma while deployed. The sequel of this trauma was a factor in her death.”
This redaction-riddled report shocked Debbie to her core that the military would be so shameless to hide what truly happened.
“I just didn’t understand how they could actually stand there and look me in the eyes, and hand that to me,” she said.
Debbie fully blames the leadership in the army and their failure to take her daughter’s sexual assault reports in Kuwait seriously and “handle what happened,” which then paved the way to the even more horrible incident that occurred in Afghanistan.
“And to think that that’s what took her life. That’s what broke her. They wanted her body. And they took her soul,” she added.
Debbie strongly believes that there is a need for an outside agency to investigate these claims and destroy what appears to be a code of silence that is protecting criminals.
“They can’t police their self. How can you investigate yourself? You can’t,” says Debbie.
Eight months after Morgan took her own life, the officer who attacked her in Kuwait finally received a written reprimand. Debbie decried that as a mere slap on the wrist that came way too late.
Debbie said that “[It was] a job that she loved. It was for her country. Everything just plays over and over and over in [my] head, thinking, ‘Did I miss something? Could I have done something?’”
To top it all off, the Army released a statement defending its disciplinary actions against the offending supervisor saying his punishment was “appropriate.” Thankfully, after the release of the report, the Secretary of the Army did acknowledge and say that they had failed Morgan Robinson.
According to CBS Evening News, Sec. Ryan D. McCarthy tweeted that “this topic has captivated the attention of America and our Army leaders and it is abundantly clear — we must do better.”
“The department remains committed to our goals of ending sexual assault in the military, providing the highest quality response to service members and holding offenders appropriately accountable,” said U.S. Army principal policy adviser Elizabeth Van Winkle.

McCain Foods, which employs about 1,000 people in the Scarborough area, has announced plans to switch production at part of its Cayton site from baking and topping pizzas to baking potatoes.
A statement issued by the firm last week (June 1) said the proposal was a result of declining pizza sales. It said demand for its recently introduced Ready Baked Jacket Potatoes remained strong.
The move could involve significant financial investment from the company to convert the current prepared foods facility, which is alongside the main frozen chip production site.
“The scale of work required means decommissioning the current unit and extensive installation of new equipment in this part of the site,” said McCain manufacturing director Alan Bridges.
“As a result, we have met employees and made preparations for a period of consultation because, regrettably, up to 40 jobs may be at risk of redundancy. The exact number will become clearer once the consultation takes place and all options for suitable alternative employment have been fully explored.”
McCain said that, despite its best efforts, it had continued to experience declining volumes in an increasingly competitive market place and this trend meant that in-house pizza production was no longer financially viable.
“At the same time, demand for our new Ready Baked Jacket Potatoes is growing, so we want to move quickly and seize the opportunities this presents for growth and future jobs,” said Bridges. “This new production facility would be in addition to one already operating very successfully in the West Midlands.
“We fully appreciate that the uncertainty caused by this proposal will be unsettling for those potentially affected, so our focus is on open communication. Throughout the coming consultation process, we will continue to treat all employees with fairness and respect.”
Meanwhile, market research firm Mintel reported sales in the UK take home pizza market up by 22% to reach £825M between 2006 and last year.
“Growth was driven by a combination of factors, however, at core was the expansion of own-label, increased promotional activity and the position of pizza as a relatively low-priced family friendly food,” said Mintel.


Media officers for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services have promised to make top HHS officials available to answer reporters’ questions, after AHCJ President Ivan Oransky, M.D., called for a press conference with the HHS secretary and the administrator of the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
“We’re looking at ways to make our officials more available in multiple settings,” said Mark Weber, deputy assistant secretary for public affairs for human services. “It might not be a press conference but a series of venues.”
