The placements of the sequence improvement and annotation projects are available through the "Finishing Projects
" and "Annotation Projects
" tracks on the GEP UCSC Genome Browser (under the Assembly Tracks
You can access the whole genome assemblies for the eight Drosophila species that have been sequenced by the modENCODE project by selecting the "April 2013 (BCM-HGSC)
" assembly on the GEP UCSC Genome Browser Genome Gateway page. In most cases, you can simply enter the name of the D. melanogaster
ortholog into the "search term
" field to navigate to region within the whole genome assembly that contains the putative ortholog. You can then change the display modes of the "Finishing Projects" and "Annotation Projects" tracks to "pack
" to determine the relationships between the finishing and annotation projects.
You can also navigate to the genomic region from which the annotation and sequence improvement projects were derived by entering the name of the project into the "search term" field. For sequence improvement projects, you can simply enter the name of the sequence improvement project (e.g., DELE8596006
) into the "search term" field. For annotation projects, you will need to include a database prefix
and an underscore
before the contig name. The database name is listed at the end of the title at the top of the genome browser page (e.g., Dele1).
For example, in order to navigate to the D. elegans
Muller F element project contig10 in the D. elegans
, one would enter "Dele1_contig10
" into the "search term" field.
You can then download the corresponding annotation and sequence improvement projects through the GEP Data Repository

Review: Of Sea & Stone by Kate Avery Ellison
Author: Kate Avery Ellison
Genre(s): Fantasy, Young Adult
Released: February 2nd, 2014
All her life, clever Aemi has been a slave in the Village of the Rocks, a place where the sea and sky meet. She’s heard the stories about the fabled People of the Sea, a people who possess unimaginable technology who live below the waves in the dark, secret places of the ocean. But she never dreamed those stories were true.
When a ship emerges from the ocean and men burn her village, Aemi is captured, and enslaved below the waves in Itlantis, a world filled with ancient cities of glass and metal, floating gardens, and wondrous devices that seem to work magic. To make matters worse, her village nemesis, the stuck-up mayor’s son Nol, was captured with her, and they are made servants in the same household beneath the sea.
Desperate to be free, Aemi plots her escape, even going so far as to work with Nol. But the sea holds more secrets than she realizes, and escape might not be as simple as leaving...
*Note, I received a copy of this book from Xpresso Book Tours & the author in exchange for a review*
My Rating:3.5/5 stars
This book was definitely interesting. There were some things in the plot that I didn't quite understand, and still don't. The story line was kind of confusing at certain points in this story.
I did like the overall idea of this story, like I said earlier this book was interesting. I loved the whole new spin on the story of Atlantis. The characters were fairly well written and I liked how Nol was written so you'd really dislike him but like him at the same time.

The circle of support opposite shows the range of help available; from friends and family, through neighbourhood groups and voluntary organisations. Local councils are also available to help and are providing a safety net for the most vulnerable or those needing support through a crisis.
There are many individuals and organisations who would be pleased to offer support during this challenging time. If you can, reach out to people you know. They may be pleased to help, but not sure how to offer. If you are not sure who to ask then contact the Reigate & Banstead Borough Council Help line on 01737 276000 or take a look at their map of services.

"No Hope For Butch" was an impromptu performance of the world-famous repertory theatre group known as "Bad SH Theatre" which has been holding performances at SHareCons since bad SH stories have been written. In other words, a very long time. The performance was held at SHareCon 2000 before an appreciative audience, which was positively struck dumb by its wit and charm. And weirdness. The "script" was written in a feverish burst of creativity right at the con. Which shows. During the performance the "story" was read by the Narrator (which was good since no one had any time for rehearsals), and acted out by SHareCon members who had no lines, no props, and no shame. They did, however, have wigs, which didn't fit, and appropriate looking leather jackets made of plastic. And, of course, raw talent and more brass than a statue in the park. Comments on this story can be sent to Flamingo who will forward them to the authors.
THE INTREPID CAST
He had been waiting for months for this opportunity of a lifetime.
It was their fault. ALL their fault. He knew that if they hadn't busted him that night, his life would have been so very, very, very different. His marriage to the wealthy orange juice heiress, Anita Valencia, would have gone off without a hitch and he would have been richer than Rockefeller, with a wallet bigger than Onassis's—wealthy enough to make Scrooge McDuck look like a plucked chicken.But noooooo. One last lousy little armed robbery. One stupid 7-11 clerk who was too slow to dodge a warning bullet. And 600 pounds of cocaine transported across state lines in a stolen garbage truck. And a left turn that left him going in the wrong direction down the interstate. It could have happened to anyone.
And they had to make a federal case out of it.
And Anita, the ignorant slut, had thrown him away like a used orange peel. And six months in County lock-up before Bo and Lola had paid off the judge had turned him from Beauregard Brandon Beufort the Third to "Butch Bottom Boy."
And so here he was, in the alley behind the Green Parrot, waiting for the bane of his existence, the ruination of his plans, the dead fly floating face-down in the soup of life to come out and meet their fate.
Butch readjusted his grip on the sawed-off shotgun. He'd been waiting for Starsky and Hutch for hours.
Finally, the stage door opened. Bright light lit two figures from their behind. Butch squinted and aimed. He watched as the two leanly-muscled men, on tall, lean and blond, the other shorter, darker and leaner, came through the door.
Clearly, the two evil detectives were drunk. Neither of the two of them could walk the proverbial straight line. The two men clung to each other for support, grabbing arms, griping shoulders, hands roaming over the other's body for support, heads leaning together, tripping over two pairs of shows, throwing up their hands in dismay.
Butch aimed. He held his breath, squinted his eye, and waiting. The two deserving detectives climbed clumsily down the back stairs. Upon reaching the bottom, the both erupted in spasms of giggles.
Butch released his breath. He took another breath, then another, then held the third. He fired off five shots in quick succession.
One of them was down! Hooray! But the other wasn't as drunk as he looked. He grabbed his big, huge weapon, aimed and fired. Six shots rang out in the night. He paused, fumbled in his jeans pocket and reloaded. Another six shots rang out.
Butch dropped his sawed-off in surprise. Shock cushioned the initial pain, but warm liquid began to flow from the holes in his body. Butch fell to his knees and looked up at the formidable figure standing before him.
Butch smiled weakly. "Got your partner, punk."
The blond, blue-eyed Midwesterner with the face of an angel didn't smile back. Instead, he put his finger on Butch's forehead, and pushed. Butch fell back, shrieking in pain.
The other man turned and ran back to his grounded buddy. "Starsky! Starsky!" he cried. He knelt besides his wounded partner. He cradled his head in his hands.
"Are you hurt, buddy-pal?" Hutch brushed the damp curls from Starsky's forehead. Tears filled his sad sky blue eyes.
"Can't tell," Starsky moaned. "Everything feels numb."
"I'll look," Hutch offered. He began to explore his partner's possible-wounded body. Starsky's hard, muscular, lightly-furred chest and wiry muscled arms seemed undamaged. His firm flat stomach likewise. He ran large, gracefully-shaped hands down Starsky's leanly-muscled thighs.
Butch knew he was in trouble if only one of them was dead. He knew he had to kill them both, or he would be dead himself. Butch felt along the dirty wet pavement for his rifle.
Apparently, Hutchinson had had the same thought, and got up to walk over and kick the rifle out of the way.
"Bitch," hissed Hutch.
Hutch went back to his other.
"Hutch?" Starsky gasped.
"Right here, buddy of mine." Hutch knelt down besides him. "I think you've been shot."
"Where?" Starsky looked up at Hutch, with large, wide eyes.
"Here in the alley. We were ambushed."
"Yeah?" Starsky asked innocently. "Am I hurt bad?"
Hutch couldn't lie to those deep blue, cerulean, sapphire eyes. But he did anyway. "It's just a flesh wound." He put his hand on Starsky's thigh. His left thigh.
"Let me put pressure on that for you." Hutch pressed firmly on Starsky's left thigh, over and over.
Starsky moaned. "I feel funny," Starsky admitted. "My stomach is in knots from all the excitement."
Hutch slid his hand higher and pressed some more, desperately offering comfort to his desperately wounded partner.
Starsky groaned, shifting restlessly. "Is that where I was hit?"
Hutch nodded. It wasn't, but he knew the pressure from his ministrations would take Starsky's mind off the real injury. Wherever that was.
Butch rolled painfully over. He looked at the two detectives. Blood poured from his mouth and ears. He rolled back. A hand reached out and felt for the kicked shotgun.
Bingo! He felt the cold metal against his fingertips.
But once again, Hutch suddenly appeared and kicked it even further away.
"Turkey," Hutch spat.
"Huuuutch," Starsky cried out.
Hutch was instantly there.
"I'm here, baby blue," Hutch comforted.
"When's the ambulance going to get here?" Starsky sighed.
"Soon, babe, soon." But Hutch knew soon would never be soon enough if it didn't get there in the next five minutes. He held him harder, unable to let go of the thing that had filled his life for almost all his life.
Suddenly, Detective Sally Jo Jensen drove up into the alley, her headlights big and filling the alley.
"Thank goodness," Hutch prayed silently.
Sally Jo unholstered her weapon and snuck up on Butch.
"This is the perp?" Sally's eyes narrowed suspiciously.
Butch looked up at her with menace.
Sally Jo kicked him with her platforms.
It was too much for Butch. He reached out and grabbed Hutch's ankle, hanging on like a Florida tourist would clutch a palm tree in a hurricane.
Sally unloaded her gun into Butch.
"Thanks, Sally Jo." Hutch relieved himself.
"My pleasure." Sally Jo stepped over Butch's writhing body and moved to Hutch.
"Let's get this guy to the hospital and get you home," Sally Jo breathed. She heaved, with Hutch's help, Starsky got to a standing position and lugged him into her hatchback. They got in the car and Sally Jo backed out.
Suddenly, in the light from the dimly-lit streetlight, Hutch noticed that Starsky wasn't really wounded. "Hey," he said, surprised. "You aren't really wounded."
Starsky grinned at him like a turtle at Christmas. "I know," he chuckled gaily. "But the comfort was so good I didn't wanna interrupt you."
Butch watched them speed to safety.

I love the Strip District. You love the Strip District. We all love the Strip District!
NEXT Pittsburgh recently took note of the growing love of the Strip District, observing that, “with its eclectic shops and restaurants and turn-of-the-century buildings awaiting restoration, the Strip is prized property right now, attracting more than just visitors. Million-dollar condos, luxury apartments, office buildings and a parking garage are newly built or nearing completion. Other sizable projects soon will start.”
But, fear not. Thanks to organizations like Neighbors In The Strip, all the love the District is feeling right now won’t distill its authenticity or soften its grit. Instead, new additions and infrastructure updates will shine a spotlight on the Strip District’s best qualities, broadening its appeal for even more to love.

100th Birthday of Curt Swan - comic book artist
Today marks the 100th birthday of the late, great Curt Swan. For those taking any kind of deep dive into Superman as a long-running comic book character, it doesn't take long before you start producing your list of giants associated with the character's creation and adventures - and Curt Swan is top of the list.
Siegel and Shuster created Superman, but eventually many of the art duties fell to first Wayne Boring, and then as we transitioned into the mid-Silver and Bronze Age, Swan became the primary pencil behind Superman. For about three decades Swan drew covers and interiors of Adventure Comics, Superman and Action Comics, and saw the end of his reign with the new era that began post COIE. In his tenure he created such characters as Supergirl, Titano, Lucy Lane and many more.
I became familiar with his work through a mish-mash of back-issues and collections of Silver Age comics, and he's very much locked in my mind as one of the best of the best. It's astounding to see the care put into every panel of his art and how his own style evolved to meet (and often exceed) the times.
More about Curt Swan from Comic Vine and Wikipedia.

On Saturday, Orioles rookie left-hander Wei-Yin Chen will face the Washington Nationals at Camden Yards on five days' rest. The next afternoon, the Nationals are scheduled to send veteran right-hander Chien-Ming Wang to the mound.
If they faced each other, it would be the first time two Taiwan natives started against each other in major league history.
"If I ever have a chance to pitch against him, it would be wonderful because I'd really want to pitch against him," Chen said through interpreter Tim Lin. "It would be really good competition between us. That is not my call right now, because it is about the manager. But there is still a long way to go. Like next year we may have a chance to pitch against each other."
The 32-year-old Wang is a legend in Taiwan. This is his seventh season in the majors and his second with the Nationals. He rose to prominence with the New York Yankees and in 2006 went 19-6 with a 3.63 ERA, finishing second in the American League Cy Young Award voting.
"Chien-Ming Wang is a superstar in Taiwan and I barely know him, and he is a really good pitcher," said Chen, who is 7-2 with a 3.36 ERA in his rookie campaign. "I have never watched him for a whole year or a whole season. I have only watched him pitch a couple games in Taiwan for the national tournament."
So, Chen admits, he'll be excited to witness Sunday's Orioles-Nationals game. And a little piece of him will be conflicted.
"He is a Taiwanese superstar and I play for the Orioles. I want the Orioles to win, but I want Chien-Ming Wang to pitch good," Chen said laughing. "So it's a really hard decision for me."
The Orioles do not have a starter listed for Sunday, but manager Buck Showalter said he is not considering rearranging his rotation to make the matchup happen.
"I got to tell you, in all the things I consider about who is going to start when, that ain't one of them," Showalter said.
Moyer pitches Wednesday for Norfolk
Veteran lefty Jamie Moyer will make his third start for Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday. He is 1-1 with a 1.50 ERA in first two starts for the Tides, for whom he has pitched 12 innings, allowing just eight hits and no walks while striking out 12.
When the Orioles signed the 49-year-old Moyer earlier this month, executive vice president Dan Duquette said he would get two to three starts and then be re-evaluated. That still seems to be the case heading into his third start.
"The word I heard was three starts and we'll see where we are," Showalter said. "I'm hoping and I expect he will pitch well tomorrow and I'm sure Dan will address it again."
Around the horn
Orioles outfielder Endy Chavez said he had his photo taken Monday next to a section outside of Citi Field that commemorates great moments in Mets history, including Chavez's incredible, home-run-robbing catch for the Mets in Game 7 of the 2006 National League Championship Series. …. Right-hander Joel Pineiro, who is rehabbing from a shoulder injury, threw five innings for the Gulf Coast League Orioles on Tuesday. He allowed one earned run on four hits with a walk and three strikeouts in a 5-3 victory over the Minnesota Twins' GCL team. …. Double-A Bowie right-hander Zach Clark was named Eastern League Pitcher of the Week for throwing seven shutout innings last week against Portland. He allowed just two hits in the victory. … The Orioles haven’t made significant progress with any of their five remaining unsigned picks in the top 10 rounds of the June draft (Kevin Gausman, 1st round; Branden Kline, 2nd; Christian Walker, 4th; Colin Poche, 5th; and Matthew Price, 7th). Walker and Price can’t negotiate until South Carolia is eliminated from the College World Series. The signing deadline is July 13.

The 2012 Nate's Verbal Hootenanny Countdown comes to its frightening end with Part 2 of the Best Halloween Movies!
A Quick Review of #'s 7-4 posted yesterday 10/30:
#6. The Fog
#5. The Shining
#4. The Exorcist
Before we move on to the Best 3 Halloween Films of all time, here are some Hootenanny Honorable Mentions:
DRACULA: "Children of the night, what music they make..." A classic film. The ultimate vampire tale. Still yet to be matched.
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD: "They're coming to get you, Barbara" Yes they are. Oops... and there goes my bladder.
ERNEST SCARED STUPID: Dumb, campy, yet somehow fun. Actually- this is only on the countdown because Adam D. Wilson said it had to be. ;-)
GARFIELD'S HALLOWEEN ADVENTURE: Garfield, Odie and Lou Rawls music. Wait, what? Yep- you read that right. Good clean 80s Garfield Halloween hijinx with a Lou Rawls soundtrack... what more could you possibly want?
INSIDIOUS: This is the last movie in the theaters to make me scream. Despite some cheesy effects toward the end, this movie is one damn good scare. Kudos to Lynn Shaye- an actress I normally associated with comedy (The Farrelly Brothers movies specifically) proving she's got some serious chops.
Now without further delay...
The Top 3 films to really get you in the Halloween mood:
#3. HOCUS POCUS
Ok, some of you may hate me for this.
But open your minds... this is the very definition of Halloween films. Witches, magic, danger, zombies, curses, spells, and virgins lighting magical Black Flame candles! Just doing my part to remind you that the Halloween mood doesn't always have to be scary and creepy... it can be funny and campy.
As far as quality of film goes, this is NOWHERE close to the other films on my countdown but I defy you to watch this movie and not be ready to go out trick-or-treating. It's impossible. And come on... Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy casting a spell on a ballroom full of people by singing "I Put A Spell On You" is classic!
Anyone else wonder how the Sanderson Sisters, having been dead for 300 years right down to the day, knew the lyrics and melody to "I Put A Spell On You" without even a single rehearsal? I mean, I know they're witches, but come on...!
Sit back, watch and have fun with Hocus Pocus... it'll give you a break from the terror that's about to ensue...
#2. TRICK 'R TREAT
While Hocus Pocus may excited you about going out for tricks-or-treats, this next flick may give you pause...
Many of you have probably never seen this film. And that's a shame.
If there ever was a love letter to everything that is Halloween, it is Trick 'r Treat. Starring Anna Paquin, Bryan Cox and Dylan Baker, TrT is a film that weaves 4 different stories together over the course of one Halloween night in a small nameless town. Part dark comedy, part thriller, part true horror film writer/director Michael Dougherty touches all the truly Halloween elements: serial killers, ghosts, monsters, werewolves- and even manages to create a few new ones.
I discovered Trick 'r Treat 3 years ago and have made it a point to watch in preparation for every Halloween. Truly a hidden gem of cinema, I was saddened to hear that politics and typical industry BS kept this film from being the massive Warner Bros. release it was originally intended to be... however, its anonymity makes this film feel even more special.
So do yourself a favor... before this day is over, go to Netflix and discover this movie. It will undoubtedly make you just a little bit more afraid of going trick-or-treating. And what fun is going out in costumes looking for candy without some small hint of danger...?
You all knew this was coming, right?
Well you were right. But honestly... can anyone think of a movie that defined this holiday more than John Carpenter's 1978 masterwork? Here's a little SAT work for ya: Halloween is to Halloween as It's a Wonderful Life is to Christmas.
The above image is exactly what pops into my head when I think of Halloween the season. Carpenter created a very simple tale: disturbed young man escapes from mental hospital and murders young kids. It's an urban legend we've heard since we were kids. What Carpenter did was make it both real and more complex: instead of it being just some mental patient, Michael Myers is a purely evil lunatic who murdered before he was old enough to even stay home by himself. Myers is so evil that the doctor who was supposed to treat him instead spent 8 out of 15 years trying to KEEP him locked up and when he escaped, ol' Dr. Loomis went out, bought a gun and decided to personally hunt him down. Oh and by the way... no matter how many times you stab or shoot him, he doesn't stay down.
"I met him fifteen years ago. I was told there was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding of even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, of good or evil, right or wrong. I met this six year old child with this blank, pale, emotionless face, and the blackest eyes, the Devil's eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized that what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply... evil."
What makes Halloween so successful is that, despite how superhumanly evil and strong Myers is, it all seems plausible. We see that "The Shape" as he is mostly referred to, is a stalker. He drives by the unsuspecting female leads, parks outside their classroom windows, follows them on their walk home and hides behind bushes. What really gets me is when poor Laurie Strode looks down from her room, she sees the ghostly figure standing in her hanging laundry outside, staring right up at her.
Because there is really no scenario presented to us that couldn't actually happen (until late in the film), we immediately put ourselves in Laurie's place. We suddenly begin to relate to her predicament: ok, so there's a guy following me, my friends suddenly aren't anywhere to be found, even though they're supposed to be right across the street, maybe I should go check things out just to be safe, hm this house is empty and dark and much more quiet than it's supposed to be, and oh wait... what's that on the bed in there...?
Shit, meet fan.
I was born after the release of Halloween and since 1978 many movies have tried to copy or put their own spin on the tale John Carpenter told here. Some have succeeded, most have failed. What makes Halloween such an awesome seasonal film besides bearing its name is that it reminds us that there is sometimes, quite simply real evil out there. That sounds depressing. But maybe the best way to deal with that is by giving ourselves an outlet to release all the anxiety and fear that comes with such a truth. We watch scary movies and dress in scary costumes and walk down dark streets knocking on strangers homes so that we don't REALLY have to worry about bad people and things they do.
So, let loose, get frightened, pee your pants a little... after all:
"It's Halloween. Everyone's entitled to one good scare."

KARACHI – Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan chief Farooq Sattar has warned that party lawmakers will resign en-masse if anyone of them is made to desert the party or taken to another ‘camp’.
MQM-Pakistan has been witnessing erosion since the formation of the group when MQM lawmakers in the country announced parting of ways with London-based Altaf Hussain and his associates.
The party claims that establishment has been pushing its members through stick and carrot to join other parties, especially the Pak Sarzameen Party of Mustufa Kamal – the former Karachi mayor and MQM member.
Now that Senate elections are approaching near, the party claimed on Sunday that Pakistan Peoples Party was hatching a conspiracy to cut its representation in Senate through effecting defections.
“The time has come that we make a decision,” Farooq Sattar along with other party members told a press conference in Karachi.
“It’s been a year since we parted ways with the MQM-London. Still our party’s legislators are being forced to switch loyalties. I don’t understand why this is happening,” he added.
“A conspiracy is being hatched to force MQM-Pakistan out from Senate and give the mandate to the Pakistan People’s Party,” MQM-P chief claimed.
“We will now approach the Election Commission of Pakistan against the [deserted] MQM lawmakers to unseat them as they have left the party. We will also urge the commission to announce by-elections on these seats,” he said.
He claimed that all the lawmakers sitting in the press conference were asked to desert MQM-P on one excuse or the other.
If any lawmaker would now be issued threats to make him or her leave the party, they would convey it to the prime minister and chief of army staff and ask them if lower rank officials were doing all this on their orders, he said. He added that they hoped it was not the policy of the state and its institutions.
“We are not opposed to anyone’s changing loyalty” but it must not come out of coercion, he said.
“If even a single lawmaker will now switch loyalty under pressure then we will be forced to divorce the parliamentary process,” he warned.
Referring to the allegations levelled against him by MQM’s expelled MNA, Salman Mujahid Baloch, Farooq Sattar said it has been a year since MQM-P ended contact with MQM-London.
“These attempts [to weaken MQM-P] would only damage our efforts aimed at standing with the country and rejecting a narrative coming from London,” he said, in an effort to dispel the impression that they were still under Altaf Hussain’s control.
The MQM-P leader also announced holding a public gathering at Mazar-e-Quaid on November 5 to raise the issue of irregularities in census process in the province.
“We have approached the courts and other relevant quarters for resolving this issue but now we will be approaching the masses for it,” he said.
Pakistan People’s Party rejected the allegations that a conspiracy was being hatched to lower MQM-Pakistan representation in Senate and said that they had nothing to do with defections within the party.
“Those who had established the MQM are now trying to eliminate it from political landscape,” said a statement by PPP Secretary Information Chaudhry Manzoor.
He said that MQM-P was witnessing internal rift and defections due to its undemocratic attitude in the past and present scenarios.
“Farooq Sattar should not blame PPP for his wrongdoings as PPP never believes in creating factions among the parties and instead believe in democratic and political processes,” he said, posing that what his party could achieve by making MQM members to join PSP or other parties.
Manzoor said that people in Karachi wanted to get rid of the politics initiated and practiced by MQM over the past three decades. They were looking towards PPP for a new hope, he held.
He said that the defeat was written on the wall for MQM in next general elections and this was the reason Farooq Sattar was feeling the heat and blaming the PPP for their own wrongdoings.

You can only confront your boyfriend about using multiple numbers and smartphones. If he agrees, then to trace all of the messages, you will need to ask him for his permission to install spy programs onto his smartphones. If he agrees, then you will need to spend a lot of money by installing spy applications on each smartphone or just into one with multiple SIM cards.

PNB’s Brady Road branch sealed as CBI quizzes Nirav Modi’s executive
The CBI continued interrogating two Punjab National Bank officials and an authorised signatory of Nirav Modi’s company, officials said.india Updated: Feb 20, 2018 17:30 IST
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Monday sealed the branch of Punjab National Bank (PNB) that is at the heart of a Rs 11,400-crore fraud involving billionaire jeweller Nirav Modi and his uncle, Mehul Choksi.
The CBI was also questioning Vipul Ambani, the chief financial officer of Modi’s Fire Star diamond company, and employees of PNB’s Brady Road branch in its probe into one of India’s biggest banking scams, agency sources said.
Ambani was holding the position for last three to four years they said, adding he was understood to be a relative of late Dhirubhai Ambani, the founder of Reliance Industries.
The CBI pasted a notice on the branch premises in south Mumbai barring anyone from entering the office. The branch was sealed a day after the agency searched its premises and also questioned five more PNB officials, a source said, taking the total number of bank staff questioned so far to 11.
Three people, including two PNB employees, one of them retired, have been arrested and were presented before a Mumbai court over the weekend.
The agency was questioning Gokulnath Shetty, a retired deputy manager, and Manoj Kharat, the single window operator at the Brady Road branch, and the signatory of Modi’s company to uncover the money trail, sources said.
The bank has said Shetty and Kharat colluded with companies belonging to Modi and Choksi and issued fraudulent letters of undertaking to overseas branches of other Indian banks which lent money to the jewellers based on the guarantee from PNB.
The CBI was also examining financial transactions of 18 India-based subsidiaries of the Gitanjali group of companies promoted by Choksi.
PNB shares slid for a fourth straight day on Monday, falling 6.7%. The selloff has wiped out about $1.7 billion, or more than a quarter of the bank’s market value, since it disclosed the fraud last Wednesday. Other bank stocks with exposure to the fraudulent transactions that PNB says began in 2011 also fell.
Modi, whose clients include top Indian actors such as Priyanka Chopra and Hollywood stars such as Kate Winslet and Dakota Johnson, has not commented on the allegations. Modi and his family left India before PNB filed a complaint on the alleged fraud, police have said.
Including direct loans given to companies of Modi and Choksi, Indian banks are at the risk of taking a hit of more than $3 billion after the fraud, according to an internal tax department note seen by Reuters.

By Dr Woolombi Waters
(Last week in The National Indigenous Times) we mentioned how John Koowarta, Vincent Lingiari and many others who have contributed to the civil rights movement in Australia such as William Cooper should be house hold names.
Should be … but they are not.
John Koowarta, become the plaintiff in a legal challenge won against the Queensland Government for discrimination in the 1970’s. The Queensland Government brought a separate action against the Government of Australia, and as such, the case was moved to the High Court.
Vincent Lingiari was a member of the Gurindji people who lead the The Wave Hill strike of the 1960’s. The protest soon became a major federal issue when the Gurindji people demanded the return of their traditional lands.
The strike lasted 8 years. The protest eventually led to the Aboriginal Land Rights (Northern Territory) Act 1976. This act gave indigenous Australians freehold title to traditional lands in the Northern Territory and, significantly, the power to negotiate over mining and development on those lands.
William Cooper spent his life protesting against oppression. He presented the Maloga petition in 1887 addressing prior traditional land ownership and self-reliance to the Governor of Victoria. His protests were relentless and he never stopped campaigning for human rights throughout his life.
By 1935 Cooper had helped establish the Australian Aborigines League. Seeing the failure of using democratic means, Cooper’s Australian Aborigines League joined forces with Jack Patten and William Ferguson from the Aborigines Progressive Association to shame white Australia.
They arranged a Day of Mourning to commemorate the 150-year anniversary of colonisation on Australia Day 1938. The protest was watched by journalists and police, and was held in Australian Hall in Elizabeth Street Sydney. This was the first combined, interstate protest by Blackfella’s in Australia.
Cooper also led a delegation of the Australian Aboriginal League to the German Consulate in Melbourne to deliver a petition, which condemned the “cruel persecution of the Jewish people by the Nazi government of Germany.
On 6 December 2008, the 70th anniversary of the protest against the NAZI’s Cooper’s grandson, Alfred “Boydie” Turner, was presented with a certificate from the Israeli Ambassador stating that 70 Australian trees were to be planted in Israel in honour of William Cooper.
In August 2010, the Yad VaShem Holocaust museum in Israel announced they would honour Cooper for his protests against the Nazi’s towards the Jews. Cooper’s rally was the only private protest against Germany for its treatment of the Jews before WWII.
He is better known and respected overseas than he is here in Australia.
As stated last week, racism goes far beyond calling someone out because of their colour – it goes to the very heart of our education system and deciding who is retained in our histories consciousness and who is not.
These men were freedom fighters of the same status of Gandhi, Martin Luther King and Malcolm X and yet most Australians have no idea who they are.
This week myself and the editor of The National Indigenous Times – Mr John Rowsthorne discussed this idea further which has lead to this weeks article questioning what would happen if world leaders who created history in fighting for civil rights and social justice were born in Australia?
To write the article I looked at the lives of Mahatma Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Martin Luther King and Malcolm X.
I also looked up significant data & analysis focusing on different periods of age development and history for Indigenous Australians taken from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, historical records, oral histories and health records.
If born as Aboriginal Australians today our three civil rights leaders would have made up 2.3% of the Australian population. Their family would have consisted of 3.5 people, compared to a non-Indigenous family, which averages about 2.6 people.
Chances are that 1 of the 3 of these newborns would be of low birth weight, this low birth weight would determine many health factors for this child in later life.
But this is if the child was born today, what say as in the case of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi the child was born on the 2nd October 1869 and lived until the 30th of January 1948. This means Gandhi was 79 years old when he was killed making his life 21 years longer than the current life expectancy of contemporary Indigenous Australians living in remote communities.
If he was born in Brisbane 1869 it has been just over a decade earlier that the Aboriginal frontier warrior Dundalli was executed and hung from the windmill at Wickham Tce, Brisbane. Who is left of our people live sporadically as fringe dwellers up to the north coast while others have moved down south looking for food.
In 1861 there was a massacre at Breakfast Creek, which is when the last of the local Brisbane blacks were moved on due to European settlement.
Born and raised in a Hindu family in coastal Gujarat, western India, and trained in law at the Inner Temple, London, Gandhi became famous for nonviolent civil disobedience first used as an expatriate lawyer in South Africa.
After his return to India in 1915, he set about organising peasants, farmers, and urban labourers to protest against excessive land-tax and discrimination.
Taking leadership of the Indian National Congress in 1921, Gandhi led nationwide campaigns for easing poverty, expanding women’s rights, building religious and ethnic relationships, but above all he achieved self-rule for his Indian people.
Gandhi’s vision of a free India was challenged in the early 1940s by a new Muslim nationalism, which demanded a separate Muslim homeland carved out of India. In August 1947, Britain granted independence, but its people were divided into two separate countries, a Hindu-majority India and Muslim Pakistan. Many Indians believed Gandhi was too accommodating to Pakistan and on The 30th of January 1948 he was assassinated.
There would be no law degree or international travel for the Aboriginal born Gandhi.
By the time of his 10th birthday his people have been almost wiped out, their drinking water had been poisoned and many others had been shot and executed by killing raids throughout the East Coast of Australia.
Their hunting grounds and the biodiversity and ecosystems that have supported their way of life for thousands upon thousands of years have gone and there is no escape.
Those who are left alive are starving to death and there is nowhere to go.
The greatest killer of his people though, is not the gun, poisoned water or starvation – tens of thousands of Gandhi’s people have perished through the infamous smallpox, epidemics, that spread as a wave of disease in the late 1820s and early 30s and again in the 1860s and 70s.
His people with no immune system have no defence against the deadly disease.
In 1788, there had been over 300,000 Aboriginal people in mainland Australia … by 1888, approximately 100 years later there are only an estimated 80,000 of our people left.
Those who have managed to survive have turned to the missionaries to stay alive.
The missionaries though, like the settlers are losing patience with the Blackfella’s realising that Blackfella’s interest in religious teaching had nothing to do with faith – the mobs would only come if the missionaries were willing to share food and tobacco.
Also, when the ‘church bell’ was rung for prayers, the Blackfella’s knew that no one would be there to guard the gardens, and would often make raids on the food supply.
Under these pressures, the once optimistic missionaries soon became frustrated – not with a government which had given them an impossible task – but with the Blackfella’s and even they have now turned their guns on the Mobs to protect their crops.
By this time Gandhi’s mob who were once in the tens of thousands have become only hundreds surviving in groups of no more than 30. Any more than this and they are hunted down and shot.
Not only starving to death, syphilis has been introduced as a form of biological warfare with Aboriginal woman raped to spread the disease. Together with the earlier introduced smallpox running rampant and with no immune system to protect them Gandhi is watching his people die.

Eipper of the Lutheran Mission states “the intellectual faculties of the Aborigines are by no means to be despised”, but within a short while he saw them as “the living embodiment of Philippians 3:19 – whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.”
Eipper observed that almost all the Aboriginal children were to some degree affected by syphilis interpreting the widespread venereal diseases as ‘a judgement upon the Aborigines’.
It is here that Gandhi’s Aboriginal people are labelled as a dying race with no hope of survival.
With over two-thirds of our people killed through a process of colonisation in the first 100 years the Aboriginal Gandhi is dead before his 20th birthday. His name, language and culture, as are the crimes of the white invaders lost in the history of Australian written textbooks that teach an alternative history.
Colonial Governments not wanting to be responsible for genocide which would attract negative attention from the international courts of the world decide the best way to help Aboriginal people was a policy of Protection.
This policy lasted from the 1880s to the 1930s by which time both Martin Luther King Jnr and Malcolm Little have both been born.
Martin Luther King Jnr (1929 –1968) was an American pastor, activist, humanitarian, and leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement. He is best known for his role in the advancement of civil rights using nonviolent civil disobedience based on his Christian beliefs.
King also helped to organize the 1963 March on Washington, where he delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech. There, he established his reputation as one of the greatest orators in American history.
In 1968 King was assassinated on April 4 in Memphis, Tennessee.
Malcolm X (1925 –1965), born Malcolm Little was an African-American Muslim minister and a human rights activist. He was a courageous advocate for the rights of blacks, a man who accused white America in the harshest terms for its crimes against black Americans.
He has been called one of the greatest and most influential African Americans in history. Malcolm X was effectively orphaned early in life. His father was killed when he was six and his mother was placed in a mental hospital when he was thirteen, after which he lived in a series of foster homes.
At the age of 20, he went to prison for larceny and breaking and entering. While in prison he became a member of the Nation of Islam, and after his parole in 1952 quickly rose to become one of its leaders.
By 1964 after a period of travel in Africa and the Middle East, he returned to the United States to preach Afro-American Unity and though continuing to emphasize Pan-Africanism, black self-determination, and black self-defence, he recanted racism, on both sides declaring himself free of the mental slavery of hatred.
In February 1964 he was assassinated.
The Autobiography of Malcolm X, published shortly after his death, is considered one of the most influential books of the 20th century.
The Aboriginal Martin and Malcolm who are instead born in Australia have become refugees in their own land. The only way to survive is to return to the government reserves and church missions as part of the protection act moving Aboriginals away from other Australians.
It is legislation that South Africa will adopt on developing its own Apartheid system.
They are given food, clothes, blankets and young Martin is lucky in receiving a very basic education. Young Malcolm is not so lucky and becomes victim to predatory sexual abuse from the male missionaries and escapes to become used as cheap labour offered accommodation and food to work as a slave by pastoralists.
World War II begins. Although Aboriginal people are not recognised as citizens, two Aboriginal military units are established and some Aboriginal people serve in other sections of the armed forces as formally enlisted soldiers, sailors or airmen. Aboriginal people serve in Europe, the Middle East, the Pacific and New Guinea.
Both boys try to enlist to escape their treatment in Australia and see the world but are too young and are turned away.
Martin takes on a position as an assistant within the Aborigines Inland Mission, an Evangelical movement based upon Baptist values with Christian Endeavour.
He becomes prominent and well known as a passionate and enthusiastic speaker and after its national convention he begins to work for the publication.
It in is this capacity that he travels to almost every Aboriginal settlement in NSW, as well as to Cherbourg, Woorabinda and Palm Island in Queensland.
The Aboriginal Welfare Conference of Commonwealth and State Authorities established by the federal government, decides that the official policy for Aboriginal people of mixed race is assimilation.
The minutes of the meeting say:
“The destiny of the natives of aboriginal origin, but not of the full blood, lies in their ultimate absorption… with a view to their taking their place in the white community on an equal footing with the whites.”
A.O. Neville, Western Australian Chief Aboriginal Protector declares “In 50 years we should forget that there were any Aborigines in this country”.
Malcolm has found happiness living with extended family in a Blacks camp just outside of Moree NSW. His happiness does not last long as he is forced to move to Sydney due his being of mixed race.
Segregationist practices continue until 1960s with separate sections in theatres, separate wards in hospitals, hotels refusing drinks and schools able to refuse enrollment to Aboriginal children.
White Australia policy has been a great success with 99% of Australia’s 7 million population being white.
An Exemption Certificate is introduced, exempting certain Aboriginal people from restrictive legislation and entitling them to vote, drink alcohol and move freely but prohibiting them from consorting with others who are not exempt.
Thousands of our people leave the communities to take advantage of the exemption certificate only for their grandchildren to return some two or three generations later utilising opportunities for equity scholarships and special entry into universities.
Many of these returning grandchildren take significant positions in parliament and government services that deal with policy and legislation to the Aboriginal people who remained in these communities and chose not to leave.
The Aboriginal people who have decided to stay use the derogatory terms ‘dog tags’ or ‘dog licences’ to refer to the certificates.
Martin comes into conflict with his Aboriginal Inland Mission teaching which supports the exemption certificate promoting them as an opportunity to overcome poverty, gain work and access to education and social welfare benefits.
He breaks from the movement and starts to attend meetings in Brisbane in setting up the Aboriginal legal service and health centre along with Don Davidson, Alice James, Eunice Watson, Bowman Johnson and others…
He then joins the Federal Council for the Advancement of Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders. This group brings together a number of civil rights and Aboriginal welfare organisations. Its work plays a large part in bringing about the 1967 referendum.
Malcolm, unable to find work or accommodation in Sydney makes his living as a petty thief and drug dealer and is transferred to Palm Island in Queensland.
While in Palm Island he is part of a workforce that demonstrates and strikes against unfair wages and apartheid. In response, the Queensland government dispatches 20 police to put the rebellion down.
At gunpoint, 7 men, including Malcolm and their families are shipped off the island in leg irons and transported to settlements on the mainland.
Martin speaks at the Native Welfare Conference.
Ministers agree to strategies to assist assimilation of Aboriginal people. These include the removal of discriminatory legislation and restrictive practices, the incorporation of Aboriginal people into the economy through welfare measures and education and training and the education of non-Aboriginal Australians about Aboriginal culture and history.
After the conference, all states and territories amend their legislation.
The conference marks the beginning of a modern land rights movement and widespread awakening by non-Aboriginal Australians to claims for justice by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
Martin arranges to meet with South Australian Premier Sir Thomas Playford and convinces him to argue for integration rather than assimilation of Aboriginal people.
In 1962 The Commonwealth Electoral Act is amended to give franchise to all Aboriginal people, extending the right to vote to Aboriginal people in Western Australia, Queensland and the Northern Territory.
The Yolngu people of Yirrkala in Australia’s Northern Territory (about 700 kms east of Darwin) send a bark petition to the House of Representatives to protest against mining on the Gove Peninsula.
Although it is signed, by senior clan members the federal government fails to recognise Aboriginal political structure and rejects the petition.
Police evict residents at Mapoon, an Aboriginal community in far north Queensland. The people are forcibly taken to other reserves and their settlement is burned down, to allow Comalco mine the biggest bauxite deposit in the world.
New Mapoon is established with families having to move over 500 kilometres away by gunpoint and in chains.
It is now 1965 and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders’ Affairs Act, passed in Queensland, gives the Director of Aboriginal Affairs considerable power over ‘assisted Aborigines’.
For example, an assisted Aboriginal person could be detained for up to a year for behaving in an ‘offensive, threatening, insolent, insulting, disorderly, obscene or indecent manner’ or ‘leaving, escaping or attempting to leave or escape from the reserve’.
Lyall Munro Snr leads a protest in Moree against racism and oppression that explodes into conflict when Blackfella’s are not allowed to use the Moree public swimming pool.
It is highly emotive as many of the Blackfella’s pick cotton for the local pastoralists in a multi million-dollar industry. It is hard hot gruelling work and the Blackfella’s are paid loose change.
Being denied entry to the swimming pool is the last straw.
Charles Perkins a leading university educated public servant is brought to Moree to resolve the conflict and is convinced to instead lead a freedom ride by Aboriginal people and students through North-Western New South Wales in support of Aboriginal rights.
Participating in the freedom rides is Martin Luther King and Malcolm Little, it is the first time they have seen each other since attending mission school as kids. Their meeting does not go well as both men realise just how different their lives have become – for Malcolm it brings back his childhood trauma and he has a relapse turning to drugs and alcohol.
The meeting also has a profound effect on Martin as he looks to reunite with family and rather than continue his struggle for integration decides to go through ceremony and re-learn his language and culture.
The freedom marches did not lead to the political life change Malcolm was hoping for and he finds himself in Redfern Sydney and has become addicted to heroin.
He is arrested for armed robbery – unlike the American Malcolm there is no Nation of Islam or predominant Indigenous group that he can join to begin a life of re-education.
Alone and once again in despair Malcolm commits suicide and is found hanging in his cell only 9 months before the 1967 Commonwealth Referendum. More than 90% vote to empower the Commonwealth to legislate for all Aboriginal people and open means for them to be counted in the census.
All states except Queensland abandon laws and policies that discriminate against Aboriginal people. The first census fully including Aboriginal people is in 1971.
Martin has become disillusioned with the struggle. Many of the children of the families who took exemption certificates are coming back into the communities.
When asked about their family histories and ties to communities they hide behind the stolen generation claiming they don’t know – it is an emotional card to play.
But Martin like many others of his generation remembers the families, which escaped persecution through the certificates. He watches as they take opportunities afforded to them in universities and become leaders within the public service sector outside of the community run organisations.
Values move from land rights, sovereignty, Black Deaths in Custody and Treaty, towards education participation and access which to Martin and others who fought the fight is just more labels for assimilation.
He brands this new middle class as gate keepers and hearing of Malcolm’s own death in custody chooses to retreat from public life. He returns to his traditional homelands with his priorities becoming his wife and children.
He passes time teaching his culture, language and ceremony to the next generation of Blackfella’s.
Now 40 years old Martin’s health outlook is bleak: There’s a 50% chance that he is a smoker and he is three times more likely to develop heart disease.
He does go to hospital, but having returned to the remoteness of his traditional homelands he doesn’t receive the diagnostic procedures he needs. He is admitted to hospital for his coronary problems and never fully recovers.
Martin’s health further deteriorates having developed type 2 diabetes and he dies 6 months before his 50th birthday.

Four killed, 24 wounded in shootout at maximum-security prison
BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) _ A riot and subsequent shootout Thursday between guards and prisoners at a maximum-security prison left at least four inmates dead and 24 wounded, authorities said.
The violence at La Modelo prison occurred after inmates stormed the guard’s command center and stole a gun, ammunition and knives, the national prisons institute said in a statement.
They took two guards hostage, then freed them and tried to gain access to a cellblock roof, said Miller Rubio, the national prisons spokesman. The shootout with guards lasted for three hours.
Another inmate was killed and five others injured when a riot broke out Thursday in the Picalena prison in Ibague, 95 miles southwest of Bogota, said Javier Suarez, another national prisons spokesman. He said authorities had no further details.
There have been more than 30 riots so far this year in the country’s badly overcrowded prisons.
Justice Minister Anabeatriz Rengifo said the government will announce measures to try to ease overcrowding soon, but gave no details at a news conference after a hastily called security meeting at the presidential palace.
She said transferring prisoners is also under consideration, but very few of Colombia’s 168 prisons have free cells. The prison system, designed to house 28,000 inmates currently holds more than 40,000, according to a study released Wednesday by the Foundation of Higher Education and Development, an independent think tank.
After the La Modelo riot, eight wounded inmates were evacuated to the San Juan de Dios hospital. Dr. Alvaro Casana, the hospital director, told Radionet network that all eight had been shot and two were in serious condition.
Hours after the shootout, police and soldiers ringed the prison. Inmates had returned to their cells by midday. A team of prosecutors and ombudsmen entered to prison to talk with the inmates.
``There is weakness in the jail system ... but we are working on it,″ national prisons director Rafael Lamo told Caracol radio.
La Modelo, built to house 1,500 inmates, is crammed with nearly triple that number, and many live in appalling conditions. More than 85 percent are still awaiting sentence.
Inmates there include Cali drug cartel kingpin Victor Patino and rebel leader Francisco Galan, as well as a younger brother of Miguel and Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela, other top Cali leaders.
The three men are held in a separate, top-security building and were not involved in the uprising, said Javier Suarez, another prisons spokesman.
Miguel and Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela are held along with other Cali bosses at Bogota’s other maximum-security prison, La Picota.

Maybe Cord Cutting Isn't Here Yet. What About Cord Shaving?
Here’s an answer that might satisfy the two sides in the “Cord cutting is real! No it isn’t!” debate: Perhaps Web video fans aren’t dumping cable in favor of Netflix, Hulu, etc. Perhaps they’re just dumping premium cable channels, like HBO.
We can call this the “cord shaving” argument, and if I could remember where I first saw the term, I’d be happy to give them credit. (My hunch is that it was BTIG Research’s Rich Greenfield. Or maybe digital-media-executive-turned-aggregator Jason Hirschhorn. Or maybe Video Nuze, etc.).
This one has a nice ring of logic to it: You’d have to be a very committed non-cable watcher to dump your entire service and make do with the Web stuff. But depending on your viewing habits, it might be quite easy to substitute, say, Netflix for HBO.
It would be cheaper, too–you’d just have to wait a while to see “Boardwalk Empire” or “Game of Thrones.” (Though I’d still pay a premium to see Kenny Powers.)*
And that may be what we’re starting to see now.
Here, for instance, is a new study from Accenture that draws a connection between Web video watchers and a drop in premium cable: It figures the Internet is responsible for an eight percent drop in subscriptions.
Alas, just as with the cord-cutting debate, we may be stuck, for a while, with competing sets of data.
Market researcher SNL Kagan, for instance, says that in the last quarter of 2010, subscriptions shot up for CBS’ Showtime and Liberty’s Starz, while Time Warner’s HBO stayed steady.
These are apples and oranges data points: The Accenture numbers are taken worldwide, while the Kagan numbers are U.S.-only. And they cover different time periods, too. Etc.
Still, there’s a reason why Time Warner CEO Jeff Bewkes has been so forceful about bashing Netflix publicly. Investors, at least, are concerned that the Web service (and perhaps Web video in general) will indeed cut into HBO’s business. So this won’t be the last we hear about this one.
And here’s one of the least unsafe-for-work Kenny Powers clips I could find. But it is still not going to be safe for some workplaces. It is awesome, though:
* For the concerned reader who inquired: No, you can’t get anything HBO shows via Netflix’ streaming service. But if you’re patient enough, and you subscribe to the DVD tier of the service, you’ll be able to get the shows and movies that way.


Ecochlor BWMS to be retrofitted in 36 ASGL vessels
Ecochlor will retrofit its ballast water management system (BWMS) in 36 of Angelicoussis Shipping Group’s (ASGL) vessels.
The installations for the vessels, which include Suezmaxes, Aframaxes, VLCCs, Minicapes and Capes, are expected between 2018-2020 in Singapore, Dubai, Qatar and China.
Speaking of the agreement, Ecochlor CEO Steve Candito remarked: “Having both IMO and USCG Type Approval were very important factors in the selection process by ASGL.
“Our expertise as well as the system’s ease of use and reliability are critical issues to shipowners as they look for manufacturers that are absolutely committed to making sure their vessels are in compliance with BWT regulations now, and for the life of the vessel.”
Over the past two years, Ecochlor’s BWMS has been installed on dozens of tankers with ballast water flow rates ranging from 750 to 6,000 m3/hr. Currently, there are two bulk carrier newbuild installations in process in China and four tanker retrofits scheduled over the next few months.
ASGL’s fleet is comprised of bulk carriers, tankers and LNG vessels. Maran Tankers Management (MTM) manages the oil tanker shipping unit and Anangel Maritime Services Inc. (AMSI) manages the bulk carrier fleet.

A win would see the Nerazzurri second in Serie A over the Christmas period, but the coach feels that there is no time for teams to breathe with injured players and a busy schedule."It's a game that has a fundamental importance. I want to see a great Inter, because with a win comes second place at [the] half-way [point of the season],” said the Inter coach.
“There are some injured too, the latest Nagatomo and Castellazi, nor [is] Cambiasso fine. If the disqualification of Guarin were to be confirmed, then we're really [low on] numbers," the Italian told Sport Media Set.
The team goes into the match having defeated Verona in the Coppa Italia on Tuesday.

Non-surgical body contouring is becoming more and more popular among both men and women, and for a good reason. With our busy lives today, we simply don’t have time for loads of downtime or scars from liposuction and surgery. Thankfully, there are plenty of options for patients seeking to contour their figure without surgery.
Is Vanquish ME™ Really Non-Invasive?
Yes! Vanquish ME™ uses powerful, yet gentle radio-frequency technology to selectively target and kill pockets of fat. Surrounding tissue remains completely unharmed during the process. Over time, dead fat cells are naturally metabolized and flushed from the body.
When Can I Get Back to My Normal Activities?
Vanquish ME™ is considered a no-downtime procedure. Patients can get back to their normal routine immediately after treatment. Vanquish ME™ is done in-office and takes less than 1-hour to complete. Men and women can easily schedule their body contouring treatment during their lunch break or while out and about running errands.
Will I Have Any Restrictions?
Unlike other treatments, Vanquish can treat us “bigger” people who aren’t gym rats. And there are no post-treatment restrictions associated with the Vanquish ME™ Fat Melting System. Unlike similar procedures, you can immediately head back to work, hit the gym, or just relax.
Vanquish ME™ Consultations Available
Are There Any Side Effects?
Vanquish ME™ has little to no known side effects. Most patients enjoy the discrete procedure because they won’t have any visible signs that they’ve undergone any treatment. Directly after your procedure, you may feel slightly tight or sore similar to what you’d expect from a good workout.
Can I Get Real Results without Downtime?
One of the best things about Vanquish ME™ is the fact that you can get real results in as little as 2-weeks. An optimal outcome will typically occur in about 3-months. Several sessions may be needed to get you the initial results you’d like. Best yet, treated fat cells are unable to return, so maintaining lasting results is easier than ever.
Am I A Good Candidate for Vanquish ME™?
You may be a good fit for Vanquish ME™ if you are in good general health and have realistic expectations about what the procedure can do. Dr. Dohner will evaluate your concerns and walk you through every aspect of the procedure so you can make an informed decision about what’s right for you.
Dr. Dohner makes me feel at ease, I trust him. He and his staff give exceptional customer service. They make you feel welcome with their friendliness. They exhibit patience, and are very professional. I highly recommend!
