I have been reading David Landes’ Dynasties: Fortunes and Misfortunes of the World’s Great Family Businesses (2006). This book is a coda to his The Wealth and Poverty of Nations: Why Some are so Rich and Others So Poor (1999), part of his ongoing argument with his friend and neighbor Alfred Chandler Jr., exponent of managerial capitalism, who died last year. These are business stories – pithy, chatty, brilliant – about families whose present-day members are, in many cases, friends of Landes and his wife.
There is something distinctly old-timey about the book. (Landes, of
The world changed in the late 1970s. The entry of China into world markets, the collapse of the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the reunification of Europe, the reorganization of the economies of Brazil, India and Mexico – all this has led to a colossal consolidation, from autos to steel to natural resources and communications.
The great new fortunes still seem to be made in the
Why are family firms so important in business? Landes enumerates and illustrates several virtues. Dynasties travel well. They keep their secrets better. They understand the value of knowledge. They get away with more. Summing up, he writes:
In some ways, all dynasties are alike. They are structures of blood relationship, often reinforced by marriage ties and adoption. The essence of the relationship lies in the nature of paternal governance: father, later grandfather, rests his authority on age, love, the habit of accepted power, the advantage of experience, the legal possession and control of assets. In dynasties that work well, these considerations make for a system of reciprocal trust, duty, habit, and affection transcending legal and even personal obligations, surpassing time and cultural environment, and surmounting generations. As we have seen, however, such systems don’t always work well, and can run into emotional difficulties. These emotional clashes seem to be almost unavoidable, gaining force from both success and failure (ya can’t win and can’t afford to lose!) and it is the family’s ability to deal with such clashes within the structure of the business that helps determines their success.
Why, then, do dynasties fare so poorly in politics? Perhaps for the very reason that they cannot deal with their problems internally, “within the structure of the business.” Whenever in the past week I have thought I have read enough Landes, I have picked up Jacob Weisberg’s book, The Bush Tragedy. Weisberg’s book, which appeared last month, has been somewhat overlooked in the excitement surrounding the Democratic primaries. No surprise. Yet not only does it present the best interpretation yet of the past eight years. It also is an excellent guide to meditation on the problems that can be expected to arise should Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton somehow pull off a miracle and win the Democratic Party’s nomination.
Weisberg writes, “After a presidency that resembles a plane crash, we need to examine the political wreckage around us to try to understand what went wrong.” He takes apart what he describes as the “black box” of Bush family history and discovers complex tangle of admiration and resentment that can be summed up simply as intra-dynastic rivalry. Bush is a man “who has been driven since childhood to challenge, surpass and overcome his father.”
Much has been said before about various aspects of the Bush family dynasty, in good, solid books written along quite different lines, by the likes of Craig Unger and Kevin Phillips. But those books are nothing like this one. The spine of Weisberg’s book is a shrewd and dispassionate account of the stresses that developed between the Walkers of St Louis, Mo., and the Connecticut Bushes in the course of five generations, and the profound distortions to which they led. Weisberg’s advantages include simplicity, familiarity, shoe-leather and an unerring sense of how families and friendship work – virtues much like those of David Landes. His analysis of
For dramatic purposes, it culminates in George H.W. Bush snookering his
George W. Bush likes to say that he is his mother’s son. But many of his most distinctive traits don’t seem to come from her or from his father. He is impatient, aggressive, often angry, and sometimes cruel. He’s a plunger, not a careful analyst or a patient builder. He lives to compete but can’t stand losing. The man’s a
, through and through. Walker
Perhaps the Weisberg book will get some of the attention it deserves after the election, during those long two and a half months while we wait for Bush to leave office. It is destined to be a minor classic, I think; to remain the best book on the Bush years, much as David Maraniss’ First in his Class remains the best book about the
For now, the important thing to recognize that the dynastic principle broke down precisely because George H.W. Bush couldn’t intervene to prevent his son from going off to war in Iraq at the crucial moment. Politics is not like business. Authority, the habit of accepted power, the advantages of experience, the legal possession and control of assets – none are worth much when power has been won at the ballot box. And that’s the point I took away from these two books on dynasty.
Many of the same rivalries and resentments are implicit in a marriage as between a father and his son. It seems to me that they would render a second “plane crash presidency” all but inevitable should Sen. Clinton succeed in inheriting the White House. The Clintons and their supporters don’t want it framed this way, of course. They have sought with considerable success to rule it out of debate. When The New York Times last month took more than half a page to endorse Sen. Clinton, unconvincingly rejecting the dashing suitor in favor of the previously-arranged marriage, the dynasty issue never even came up. How’s that for ignoring the elephant in the room?
Even The Economist, normally perspicacious, missed the point last week when they wrote that “The Clintons have fought a leaden and nasty campaign; at present, the prospect of a ‘Billary presidency’ (even before you take into account the dynastic Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton aspect) is hardly enthralling.” The basic fact of the matter, though, is the point that Weisberg makes: the Bush experiment with succession was a disaster precisely because it was a dynasty.
Why would Americans want to do it again if they don’t have to? Mrs. Clinton is an excellent senator, but this is the

One of the most powerful gatekeepers in the U.S. pension industry has walked away from the gate. For close to a quarter century, Wilshire Associates' longtime consulting chief, Stephen Nesbitt, advised giant pension funds, including the California Public Employees' Retirement System and Massachusetts' Pension Reserves Investment Management Board, on which asset managers to hire. He also ran Wilshire's $10 billion asset management business.
Forced by reorganization at the firm to give up consulting and focus on his money management role, Nesbitt decided instead to resign, say sources at Wilshire. He thus becomes the first collateral casualty of the Securities and Exchange Commission's two-month-old probe into potential conflicts of interest at pension consulting firms.
Neither Nesbitt nor Santa Monica, Californiabased Wilshire has been accused of any wrongdoing. Nevertheless, Wilshire chairman Dennis Tito decided to take preemptive action by separating the firm's consulting activities from its asset management business. Nesbitt straddled both; Tito replaced him as consulting chief with Wilshire veteran Julia Bonafede but offered him the chance to remain head of asset management. Apparently chagrined about losing the consulting brief, Nesbitt resigned. He would not comment. Tito declared in a written statement that "Steve was offered the opportunity to move from his position as head of the consulting division to head up the funds management division but declined."
Wilshire is just one of several major investment consulting firms, including Mercer Investment Consulting and Frank Russell Co., that have received inquiries from the SEC. The agency wants to know whether they receive compensation from the money managers that they recommend to pension plans.
Nesbitt's contemporaries at other consulting firms speculate that he will start his own consulting practice, perhaps with two other ex-Wilshire consultants who left after he did: Dennis Sugino and Kathy Barchick. Certainly, he's got something to say about how to handle an SEC probe.

Women asked to screen regularly as cervical cancer claims more lives
●Mrs Zenabu Addo (middle) cuttingthe tape to launch the programme
Described as deadly, devastating and leaving families in misery, cervical cancer has claimed many lives in Ghana than those recorded by road accidents and maternal deaths.
Data from the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) Information Centre in Ghana has revealed that about 3,151 new cases of cervical cancer are diagnosed annually, and the disease is ranked the second most frequent cancers among women.
In 2019, alone, the disease claimed a total of 2,103 lives in the country.
The District Deputy Director of Nursing Services, Mrs Zenabu Addo who was speaking at the launch of this year’s Cervical Cancer Awareness Month at the Madina Polyclinic, Kekele in Accra, said Cervical Cancer was caused by a sexually transmitted virus called HPV.
The programme which was organised by the Madina Polyclinic in collaboration with the Cancer Support Network Ghana was themed, “Early Detection is Key.”
Mrs Zenabu Addo enumerated the risk factors as engaging in early sex before attaining the age of 20, smoking, having multiple sexual partners at different times and one’s family history among others.
Mr Blaise Ackom, a Cervical Cancer Ambassador in a keynote address emphasised the point that women should embrace regular screening for early detection of the disease and subsequent treatment.
He said the key preventable method was for young ladies to abstain from sex and that women should take advantage of the awareness creation month and have themselves screened at a lower cost.
He noted that there was no cure for cervical cancer anywhere apart from the hospital.
Mr Ackom warned against smoking, especially shisha which he said was more dangerous than smoking many sticks of cigarette and lamented that the rate at which the youth were smoking shisha was alarming.
He called on husbands to support their wives and female children to screen regularly and parents in general to take good care of their children so that they would not fall prey to bad behaviours in society.
He advised women to study their bodies well in order to identify abnormalities and promptly report issues of post-coital bleeding.
The Cervical Cancer Ambassador appealed to the government to include free screening of the disease in the National Health Insurance Scheme.
Ms Rosetta Ntriwaa Aboagye, a Midwife at the LekMA Polyclinic at Teshie Tsuibleoo, observed that since the cervix played essential roles in the lives of women, there was the need to cherish it and ensure that it was well maintained.
“Since this is the only cancer which is preventable, why do we wait unnecessarily without embracing the preventable means for it to destroy us,” she asked.
Ms Afwoa Mireku Ampomah, also a Cervical Cancer Ambassador, called on women to take control of their lives, boost their immune system and avail themselves of vaccination.

LAASA’s Solution:Provided basic needs assistance
Beneficiaries:30 dumb and deaf children at Navajeevan Trust
Location:Pathapatnam, Srikakulam Dist., AP.
The human being is born to render selfless service and not to indulge in selfishness. Selfless service alone can achieve unity of humankind. Only through unity can humanity attain Divinity. Hence service is very essential to understand this unity in humanity. People are under the impression that service means merely to help the poor, the weak and forlorn. It is a big mistake to think that you are rendering service to others. Infact you are serving yourself because the same principle of the Atma, the same Principle of Love, is present in all. All human beings are essentially one. The differences lie only in their feelings. So, a person should change his or her feelings and try to recognise the truth that the same Divinity is immanent in all. Only then can there be transformation in the human being.
Our volunteer members Kalivarapu Prasad and M.DilliswaraRao has identified needs of Navajeeven Trust at Pathapatnam, Srikakulam Dist., AP. This trust is taking care of 30 dumb and deaf children and is in need of stove and gas stove. LAASA provided this basic needs to the Trust through our volunteer team.
We the LAASA with selfless love, serving the needy which was a bliss to the one who serves and who receives. Thus, showing the unity among the humanity.

GC wrestling looks forward to a spring season start
Despite many college athletic programs being moved from a fall to spring semester start because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Garrett College's wrestling team continues to work hard and practice for a hopeful season this spring.
"COVID-19 has put a little bit of a cloud over our 2020-2021 wrestling season," stated John Chambers, GC's wrestling head coach. "With the NJCAA moving our wrestling season to a January 2021 start, we have adapted our workouts to only being able to practice this fall."
According to Chambers, Garrett athletes continue to work hard through strength and conditioning training. As a result, he is extremely pleased with the level of talent exhibited by this year's team.
"Our workouts consist of swimming workouts, technique, and weight training," Chambers said. "We have a mixture of high-level athletes, and a very competitive wrestling room from returners, Division I and II transfers, and high school wrestlers from Maryland and Pennsylvania. We are highly excited with the talent assembled and can't wait to put it on full display this spring."
Garrett's first Columbia/Navy team scrimmage was highly competitive, coming down to the final match to decide the outcome. The second team scrimmage is scheduled for Thursday, November 12th at 7 p.m.
"The competition within our wrestling room is what we envisioned as our program continues to grow," noted Chambers. "Our on-campus wrestling room is on pace to be completed before we return in January, which is a huge step for our program."
The Garrett Lakers wrestling team will open their season with a home quad scheduled for January 23, 2021.

STROUDSBURG, Pa. — A wildlife hospital in our area opened it’s doors today to let the community get a sneak peek at what they do.
It was a chance for visitors to have an up-close encounter with the wildlife that call northeastern and central Pennsylvania home.
“I get to see baby raccoons every day, I get to see baby owls every day. To get to share that with my community who supports what we do is a really good feeling,” said Kathy Uhler, Director of Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center.
“We saw a coyote, we saw a couple skunks, we saw baby rabbits, which were pretty cool,” said Kassidy Bond of Saylorsburg, who visited the center with her parents.
The annual open house allows the public to see the animals, as well as learn about the center.
“Our community supports us, and if they can`t see what we do, it`s hard for them to support us. So once a year, for a weekend, we open up and so people can come and see what it is that we do at a wildlife hospital,” explained Uhler.
Visitors were able to see fawns, many different species of owls, porcupines, foxes, and other animals throughout the center’s grounds.
But the newest residents, played hard to get. Two five month old bear cubs were brought in this week after their mother died.
While many of the animals at the Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation Center are permanent residents, some will later be released back into the wild after rehabilitation, and it`s all thanks to donations from the public.
“We’re licensed by many state and federal agencies, but we are not funded by any. A lot of people think we are, we`re not. We`re funded by our community, so without everyone out there who is watching right now helping out, we couldn`t do what we do,” said Uhler.
The Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation Center accepts monetary donations and supplies, including paper towels and fruits and vegetables.
Officials hope that the open house will help bring donations in, as well as people interested in volunteering, like Kassidy Bond.
“I think it`s really cool how they put this all together by donations, and I think it`s great, rehabilitating animals and putting them back into the wild,” said Bond.
The Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation Center will be open tomorrow, Sunday June 23, from 10am to 4pm for another day of open house festivities.

The multitude is a concept of a population that has not entered into a social contract with a haardt political body, such that individuals retain the capacity for political self-determination. For Hobbes the multitude was a rabble that needed to enact a social contract with a monarch, thus turning them from a multitude into a people.

“Pistachios are a great addition to a diet aimed to help one lose weight because they're one of the lowest-fat and lowest-calorie snacks that offer the most nuts per serving (49 pistachios per 1-ounce serving) compared to cashews (18) and walnuts (14 halves),” says Shaw. Get in-shell pistachios because the leftover shells may provide a visual cue for portion control to curb intake.
Carbohydrates are one of your body’s main sources of energy. But most should come from complex, unrefined carbs (vegetables, whole grains, fruit) rather than sugars and refined carbs. Cutting back on white bread, pastries, starches, and sugar can prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar, fluctuations in mood and energy, and a build-up of fat, especially around your waistline.

If you’re on a quest to jumpstart weight loss, why not kick your metabolism into overdrive by sneaking spicy foods into your diet. Capsaicin, the active ingredient in cayenne pepper that gives it its spiciness, revs up your metabolism in a way that’s conducive to weight loss. In fact, according to a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, those who supplemented their diet with capsaicin consumed 200 fewer calories during their next meal.
The weight of evidence strongly supports a theme of healthful eating while allowing for variations on that theme. A diet of minimally processed foods close to nature, predominantly plants, is decisively associated with health promotion and disease prevention and is consistent with the salient components of seemingly distinct dietary approaches. Efforts to improve public health through diet are forestalled not for want of knowledge about the optimal feeding of Homo sapiens but for distractions associated with exaggerated claims, and our failure to convert what we reliably know into what we routinely do. Knowledge in this case is not, as of yet, power; would that it were so.
Wouldn’t it be great if life came with a magic remote control that made the bad parts speed up and the good parts slow down? You could hit FF at the beginning of every workday, and RWD at the end of awesome date. All the vacations, holidays and parties could move at the pace of a Kenny G song, and all the endless conference calls could spin by faster than Nicki Minaj’s hairstyles.
Blueberries are lousy with antioxidants, satiating fiber, potassium, and more, and according to researchers at the University of Michigan, the colorful fruits may also encourage weight loss. In a study of laboratory rats, scientists found that after 90 days the rats who consumed blueberry-enriched powder as 2 percent of their diet had less abdominal fat, lower triglycerides, lower cholesterol, and improved fasting glucose and insulin sensitivity, than the rats who didn’t consume any blueberry-enriched powder.
Popular diets, often referred to as fad diets, make promises of weight loss or other health advantages such as longer life without backing by solid science, and in many cases are characterized by highly restrictive or unusual food choices.:296 Celebrity endorsements (including celebrity doctors) are frequently associated with popular diets, and the individuals who develop and promote these programs often profit handsomely.:11–12
Beans are a great weight loss food that can help boost feelings of fullness and manage blood sugar levels, making them an excellent ally in your weight loss battle. In fact, a recent study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found eating one serving a day of beans, peas, chickpeas or lentils could contribute to modest weight loss. And if you need another reason to bulk up on beans, remember that the fiber and protein-rich legumes are other excellent sources of genistein—the same compound found in peanuts and lentils that aids weight loss.
Eating a healthy diet doesn’t have to be overly complicated. While some specific foods or nutrients have been shown to have a beneficial effect on mood, it’s your overall dietary pattern that is most important. The cornerstone of a healthy diet pattern should be to replace processed food with real food whenever possible. Eating food that is as close as possible to the way nature made it can make a huge difference to the way you think, look, and feel.
Prefer water over other beverages. Avoid sugary drinks, and limit intake of juices and milk. Coffee, tea, artificially-sweetened drinks, 100-percent fruit juices, low-fat milk and alcohol can fit into a healthy diet but are best consumed in moderation. Sports drinks are recommended only for people who exercise more than an hour at a stretch to replace substances lost in sweat.
Hello, hydration. Watermelon, which gets its pretty color from the antioxidant lycopene, is a juicy, delicious way to make sure you’re staying hydrated—a key factor in weight loss for various reasons. When you’re drinking enough water, all your systems (including your metabolism) are better able to work at their maximum capacity, Shawn Talbott, Ph.D., a nutritional biochemist, told SELF in a previous article. Plus, proper hydration prevents you from confusing thirst for hunger, which can lead you to overeat throughout the day. And don’t buy into the hype about watermelon being a calorie bomb—1 cup only contains 46 calories.
Yes, you can eat dark chocolate to lose weight. A study among women with normal weight obesity (or “skinny fat syndrome”) who ate a Mediterranean diet that included two servings of dark chocolate per day showed a substantial reduction in waist size than when on a cocoa-free meal plan. Researchers attribute dark chocolate’s weight loss abilities to flavonoids, heart-healthy compounds in the sweet treat that the scientists at Harvard say can reduce the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and mortality. Like nuts, dark chocolate has also been found to induce satiety. When reaching for chocolate, just make sure you choose a bar with at least 70 percent cacao. Anything less contains more belly-bloating sugar and a significantly reduced flavonoid content.
A 2012 CDC study found that the average adult consumes about 100 calories worth of alcohol daily, but favoring a glass of wine instead of beer or sugary cocktails can drastically reduce that figure and make your waistline slimmer. In addition to having fewer calories than most alcoholic beverages, red wine, in particular, is a good source of those waist-shrinking flavonoids that are also found in red fruits. Resveratrol, a particular flavonoid found in red wine, is believed to have heart health benefits because it helps prevent blood vessel damage and reduces your ‘bad cholesterol.’ Just remember to imbibe in moderation.
These tiny fish are the unsung stars of the sea. With 23 grams of protein per can and a truckload of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, they're an easy way to load up on nutrients. They're also low in mercury and high in calcium, making them a smart fish pick for pregnant women. If the flavor doesn't appeal to you, soak them in milk for an hour to help cut down on the fishiness.
These support bone health and have other possible benefits. Dairy products are the best sources of calcium, but you can also get it from fortified foods as well as canned salmon, sardines, dark leafy greens, and most tofu. If you can’t get the recommended 1,000 to 1,200 milligrams a day from food, take a calcium supplement. It’s hard to consume enough vitamin D from foods (the RDA is 600 to 800 IU a day, though other experts advise more). Thus, many people—especially those who are over 60, live at northern latitudes, or have darker skin—should consider taking a supplement.
Water is a weight loss ally in a number of ways. For starters, if sipped prior to a meal it can help ensure you eat less. A British study published in the journal Obesity that asked participants to chug 16 ounces of H2O prior to eating found said participants lost an average of 2.87 pounds in 90 days—which translates to nearly 12 pounds in a year! Water helps you blast even more fat because it is a much better beverage choice than diet soda or fruit juice, both of which are full of artificial sweeteners that can pack on belly fat super fast.
Here’s more reason to add avocado to everything. “Most of the carbohydrate content in avocados comes from fiber (1/3 of an avocado provides 11 percent of our daily fiber needs), and it also contains monounsaturated fat, which is known as a ‘good’ fat and [is] important for heart health,” says Zigler. Together, the healthy fats and fiber will keep you full to avoid mindless munching throughout the day.
Excess sodium, found in many processed foods and restaurant meals, raises blood pressure in some people and can have other adverse effects. The Dietary Guidelines recommend a limit of 2,300 milligrams a day for the general population; people with hypertension or prehypertension can benefit from a further reduction to 1,500 milligrams per day. As you cut back on sodium, eat more potassium-rich foods, which help lower blood pressure. These include citrus fruits, bananas, beans, avocados, some fish, and dairy products.
If giving up pasta is the hardest part of making changes to help lose weight, zucchini noodles are a healthier alternative, Michalczyk says. "I like to think of them as pasta's lower-carb and higher-in-nutrition cousin because zucchini is a good source of vitamins A and C, fiber and potassium for only about 33 calories per zucchini,” says Michalczyk. You can use in zoodles, much on as is with some dip, roast them, or add to salads.
Since avocados are packed with nutrients and healthy fats that can stimulate weight loss, it’s no surprise that avocado oil acts in a similar fashion. When Penn State University researchers compared those who consumed monounsaturated-rich oils (like high-oleic canola oil or avocado oil) with those who consumed a flax-safflower oil blend, they found that those who used just three tablespoons of the monounsaturated-rich oil daily lost nearly two percent of their belly fat in just one month.
Steel-cut and rolled varieties of oats have up to 5 grams of fiber per serving, making them the most filling choice. (Instant oats contain 3 to 4 grams per serving—if you're opting for that kind, make sure to skip the versions with added sugar.) And as a complex carb, they can help with weight loss. "Your body needs to break down complex carbohydrates because they’re a complicated mesh of molecules,” Lauren Harris-Pincus, M.S., R.D.N., and owner of Nutrition Starring You, told SELF in a previous article.
Try not to think of certain foods as “off-limits.” When you ban certain foods, it’s natural to want those foods more, and then feel like a failure if you give in to temptation. Start by reducing portion sizes of unhealthy foods and not eating them as often. As you reduce your intake of unhealthy foods, you may find yourself craving them less or thinking of them as only occasional indulgences.
Welcome to the Best Foods For Weight Loss Treasure Trove. Contrary to popular opinion, slashing as many calories from your diet as possible is not the optimal way to lose weight. Instead, you should be loading your diet with whole, healthy foods that fill you up (making you less likely to go overboard on less healthy options), boost your energy so you can crush it at the gym, and provide enough calories to keep your metabolism chugging right along.
Yogurt is protein-packed and full of probiotics, which are good for gut health and may help your weight-loss efforts. Your gut health can impact your weight, and eating more fiber and probiotics helps keep your gut bacteria happy, which can be good for your metabolism (read more about your gut-weight connection). Go Greek for more protein; plus, research from Appetite found that consumption of Greek yogurt was associated with reduced appetite and increased satiety. Just keep an eye on added sugars in flavored yogurts, which only add calories. Instead, use fresh fruit to sweeten plain yogurt.
Another weight-loss-friendly substitute to keep in mind is favoring salsa over ketchup. While ketchup typically has around 19 calories and 4 grams of sugar per tablespoon, fresh tomato salsa has about 5 calories per tablespoon, no added sugar, and is packed with nutritious veggies. Tomatoes, for example, are loaded with fat-blasting fiber and vitamin C, a deficiency of which Arizona State University researchers associated with increased body fat and larger waists. If you can handle spice, toss some jalapenos in your salsa to rev up your metabolism. For more on how you can switch your metabolism into overdrive, check out the best ways to boost your metabolism!
As it turns out, almonds aren’t the only superstar nuts around. Studies have shown pistachios aren’t bad to snack on either. UCLA Center for Human Nutrition researchers divided study participants into two groups, each of which were fed a nearly identical low-cal diet for three months. One group was given 220-calories of pretzels as an afternoon snack, while the other sect munched on 240-calories worth of pistachios. About a month into the study, the pistachio group had reduced their BMI by a point and improved their cholesterol and triglyceride levels, while the pretzel-eaters stayed the same.
As found in nuts, seeds, fish, avocados, and plant oils. You should consume these high-fat foods in place of other high-calorie foods; otherwise, you’ll be adding excess calories to your diet. For instance, substitute olive or canola oil for butter, and nuts for chips. Fatty fish may reduce the risk of heart disease and have other benefits, attributed at least in part to their omega-3 polyunsaturated fats.
Although they're best known for containing potassium, bananas are also a great source of resistant starch, a type of starch that's important for weight loss. Your body digests resistant starch slowly—helping you feel full for longer—while simultaneously encouraging your liver to switch to fat-burning mode. And no need to wait for them to become completely ripe; bananas actually contain more of this calorie-torching ingredient when they're still a little green.
All beans are high in fiber, which is your friend when you're trying to lose weight because it helps you feel fuller longer, thus controlling hunger. Eating beans and legumes has also been linked with various other health benefits, including lowering blood pressure, reducing LDL cholesterol and reducing risk of cardiovascular disease. Beans are fairly low in calories and deliver protein as well. Try them in homemade veggie burgers, soups and salads.
Try a lower-calorie version. Use lower-calorie ingredients or prepare food differently. For example, if your macaroni and cheese recipe uses whole milk, butter, and full-fat cheese, try remaking it with non-fat milk, less butter, light cream cheese, fresh spinach and tomatoes. Just remember to not increase your portion size. For more ideas on how to cut back on calories, see Eat More Weigh Less.
The DASH diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) is a diet promoted by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (part of the NIH, a United States government organization) to control hypertension. A major feature of the plan is limiting intake of sodium, and the diet also generally encourages the consumption of nuts, whole grains, fish, poultry, fruits, and vegetables while lowering the consumption of red meats, sweets, and sugar. It is also "rich in potassium, magnesium, and calcium, as well as protein".
This often over-looked gem is loaded with protein, filling fats, and calcium to help you build and repair muscles, which can aid in weight loss. “It's fabulous with fruit, on whole grain toast, oatmeal or salads, but the super high protein content [13 grams per 1/2 cup serving!] helps to keep you full in between meals,” says Harris-Pincus. You can also use it in smoothies, in eggs, or in pancake batter. Just be sure to check labels and find a product that’s low in sugar.
Eggs are rich in high-quality protein, fats and essential nutrients, like vitamin D and choline. It's the protein, and the time of day we tend to eat them, that especially makes them a powerhouse for weight loss. Eating a high-protein breakfast promotes weight loss, because protein increases satiety while regulating hunger and appetite hormones, helping fend off your hunger until lunchtime. One study found that eating eggs for breakfast left people feeling more satisfied than those who had bagels—which helped them eat less throughout the day.

Mystery, Alaska Reviews
Weaknesses: While the hockey scenes are fantastic, they're few and far between. I understand having to build character in the non-sports scenes, but there were far too few. It led to a few boring lulls in the movie. Several characters have plotlines that kind of don't do much. For example, Mayor Scott R. Pitcher (Colm Melany) finds out that his wife Mary Jane (Lolita Davidovich) is sleeping with the team's notorious playboy, Skank (Ron Eldard) and though it gets resolved, you could've chucked it and missed nothing. Too much of things like that bog this down. Mike Myers (Donnie Shulzhoffer) gets a cameo that's supposed to be funny, but isn't at all.
Overall: It's a personal favorite sports movie of mine, but it's not without flaws. I like a good chunk of the characters, the sports scenes are fantastic, and the setting is great. With more of the stuff that worked replacing the parts that didn't, the movie would rank higher.

Federal officials are still developing the process health insurers and benefit plan administrators will use to “make contributions” to a new Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act reinsurance program.
The Center for Consumer Information & Insurance Oversight talks about the PPACA reinsurance program payment process in a new fact sheet.
CCIIO – the arm of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in charge of carrying out PPACA provisions that affect commercial health insurance – said in the fact sheet that it will post a PPACA reinsurance program payment form at Pay.gov, a federal government payment website.
CCIIO should be ready to train plans to use the system in late June, and payment information will be due Nov. 15, CCIIO said.
PPACA now requires health insurers to sell individual coverage on a guaranteed-issue basis. The only personal health information insurers can use when setting individual rates is age.

PRENEED FIRM PLACED UNDER CONSERVATORSHIP
The Insurance Commission has placed preneed firm Paz Life Plan Inc. under conservatorship as it was unable to comply with the capitalization requirement.
“The result of the examination made into the affairs, financial condition and methods of doing business of Paz Life Plan as of end-2016 showed the company had failed to comply with the minimum P50-million paid-up capital requirement," Insurance Commissioner Dennis B. Funa said, adding that Paz Life Plan’s paid-up capital was only P1.17 million.
“Under the Pre-Need Code, preneed firms existing at the time of the effectivity of the law selling a single type of plan are required to have a minimum unimpaired paid-up capital of P50 million. Those selling two or three types of plans are required to have a minimum paid-up capital of P75 million and P100 million, respectively,” Funa said.
The order placing Paz Life Plan under conservatorship came after the company failed to comply with the order of the Insurance Commission to address the capital deficiency issue and explain why it should not be placed under conservatorship, Funa said.
As such, Paz Life Plan can no longer sell new memorial plan contracts.
But Funa clarified that memorial plans issued before the conservatorship order remained valid and the obligation of the company toward the planholders still existed until the expiration of the plans.
On its website, Paz Life Plan said La Funeraria Paz Inc. was its “premium service provider.”
Formerly Paz Memorial Services Inc., the company’s license was suspended by the regulator through an order issued by Funa in April.
Last month, Funa named lawyer Raul I. Rafael conservator to manage the company.
At end-2016, Paz Life Plan had 14,739 planholders.

Since September 2018, the City of Dubrovnik, in cooperation with volunteers who care for abandoned animals, has been implementing the action of sterilization of street cats in the entire city area. According to data from veterinary clinics, in the past two years, 1,018 cats have been sterilized in this way, including 715 females and 303 males.
This year Sanitat Dubrovnik planned 80,000.00 Kuna for sterilization, and that amount has been evenly distributed to the three veterinary clinics from the city that are involved in this action.
"We are on a good path to reduce the population of street cats to a minimum, we can see the results and every cat with a cut ear on the street is our success," said the initiator of the action, Ljubica Kežić.
Castration and neutering of cats is carried out primarily for the purpose of control and regulation of the cat population, especially when it comes to cats that are not cared for and stay outside and for public health reasons. All neutered cats are marked with a small incision at the tip of the ear and can be easily identified as such.
The Mayor of Dubrovnik, Mato Franković, commented that this action will continue in the future.

With a wide variety of adventures under his belt, Pete Goss talks positively and with passion about leading teams through exciting, but often complex, difficult and dangerous situations. A natural communicator with a dynamic but informal style, Pete never ceases to amuse, entertain and inform with his presentations.
At the height of the Team Philips project, Pete headed-up a workforce of more than 100 employees, brokered multi-million pound sponsorship deals and assisted in the creation of several new companies in fields as diverse as new media, engineering, education and boat-building. Handling these complex and often conflicting pressures whilst all the while being under the media spotlight, gave Pete a unique insight into the challenges that face every organisation.
Equally at home battling the elements alone or leading a business team from the front, Pete draws from these experiences to offer management talks, team-building exercises and training sessions that will not only challenge individuals and groups, but inspire them to achieve beyond what they thought possible.
As Pete says: “I have been fortunate to have been brought up on a diet of adventure and privileged to take part in number of challenges. My training in the Royal Marines taught me to be professional at all times, even in dangerous and frightening circumstances. But fear can be dispelled by knowledge and preparation. I truly enjoy helping other people realise their full potential and tailor my talks and training to suit the needs of the audience.”
Following Pete’s dramatic rescue of Frenchman Raphael Dinelli during the 1996/7 Vendee Globe non-stop single-handed round the world yacht race, he was awarded the MBE by HM The Queen and the Legion d’Honneur by the French President, amongst a plethora of other awards, honours and life memberships.

As the general elections in Pakistan are scheduled for February 8th, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has released special directives for Presiding and Assistant Presiding Officers who will play a crucial role in the electoral process.
According to the issued guidelines, Presiding and Assistant Presiding Officers are instructed to reach their respective polling stations two hours before the commencement of polling. The directives emphasize the importance of these officers arriving promptly to ensure the smooth setup and functioning of the polling stations.
The ECP’s instructions highlight that Presiding and Assistant Presiding Officers are to meticulously record all relevant information on the file of ballot papers counters. This meticulous record-keeping is essential for the transparency and accuracy of the election process.
Additionally, the guidelines outline specific measures related to the placement of thumb impressions on the counterfoils of ballot papers. Voters are advised to place their left thumb impression for men and right thumb impression for women, along with a designated government seal on the back of the ballot papers.
Furthermore, the guidelines detail the placement of a unique number-specific government seal on the back of the ballot papers. This measure aims to enhance the security and traceability of each ballot paper, contributing to the integrity of the electoral process.
It is crucial to note that the ECP has established a polling scheme for the upcoming elections, with a total of over 90,675 polling stations set up across the country. Among these, there are 25,320 polling stations designated for male voters and 23,950 for female voters. The summary released by the ECP underscores that there will be 41,405 joint polling stations where both male and female voters will cast their votes.
As the elections draw near, these guidelines serve as a comprehensive framework to ensure the fairness, transparency, and efficiency of the electoral process. The ECP’s meticulous planning, along with the dedication of polling officers, is essential for conducting free and fair elections, upholding the democratic values of the nation.

Victor Yushchenko on Thursday presented state awards to a group of the Chornobyl liquidators to mark the 21st anniversary of the world’s worst ever nuclear accident president's press office informs.
“I am honored today to present the people in this hall with high awards as a token of respect for your exploit. On behalf of the Ukrainian nation, I would like to express gratitude to you,” he said.
“…We understand that there is no past tense in the Chornobyl issue. It follows us every day and will be following us for decades. Ukraine is bearing the heavy burden of Chornobyl,” he said in a speech, adding that lots of measures had been taken in the past several years to help and support those in charge of the removal of the consequences of the 1986 blast.
He reiterated his demand that the country’s central and regional executive bodies develop the contaminated area around the shuttered nuclear power plant, rehabilitate those affected by the accident and create favorable conditions for their activity. He added that it was time we should look at this uninhabited territory as having prospects and put it to use again.

Royal Wedding 2018: Harry & Meghan Release Official Photos
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have released three official photographs taken on their wedding day.
The pictures, taken by Alexi Lubomirski, include a group photograph with bridesmaids and close family, including their parents and the Queen.
“Their Royal Highnesses are delighted with these official portraits,” a statement added.
ICYMI, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle found ways to pay tribute to his late mother, Princess Diana during their royal nuptials in their wedding photographs.
The pics were GORGEOUS but it gave the prince another chance to honor his mother. An what a special detail that many people may have missed.
In a second photo released by the palace, Harry and Meghan are surrounded by their page boys and bridesmaids:
While Meghan sits on the floor of the Green Drawing Room at Windsor Castle, Harry sits on an emerald green couch, a couch that he sat on once before in another photograph marking an important milestone in his life.
The couch was the same couch in which Harry’s late mother was photographed sitting on while holding a baby Harry at his christening in 1984.
But this is the money shot:
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex would like to thank everyone who took part in the celebrations of their wedding on Saturday. They feel so lucky to have been able to share their day with all those gathered in Windsor and also all those who watched the wedding on television across the UK, Commonwealth, and around the world #RoyalWedding

Headquartered in Dongguan, Oppo is a Chinese electronics brand founded by Chen Mingyong in 2001. Incorporated in 2004, the company made a name for itself by selling high-quality Blu-ray players, amplifiers and headphones in its early days. It forayed into phones in 2008 with the launch of Smile Phone, the sale of which was limited only to the China region. The company entered India’s smartphone market in 2014 with the launch the Oppo N1, the world’s first smartphone to feature a swivel camera. Like the OnePlus and Vivo, Oppo is a subsidiary of BKK Electronics.
The history of Oppo smartphones has so far been full of camera-related innovations. The Oppo N1 introduced a swivel camera module that could rotate full 180 degrees. This helped the phone to use a single camera for both rear and front. This phone was followed by the Oppo N3, which also had a rotating camera, but this time it was powered by a motor. Oppo was among the first to launch a selfie-centric phone with dual front cameras, the Oppo F3 Plus. It was also one of the first smartphone brands to launch dual rear cameras in a mobile phone. In 2018, Oppo introduced the Find X smartphone, becoming the first phone brand to use a mechanical pop-up camera module.
Though Oppo’s smartphone portfolio covers a wide price spectrum, the company launched its subsidiary, Realme Mobiles, to cover the budget and midrange segments. Later, Realme snapped its ties with parent Oppo and became an independent mobile phone brand. However, it remained a subsidiary of BKK Electronics, like Oppo, Vivo and OnePlus.
In 2019, the company announced the Oppo Reno-series with the launch of the Oppo Reno 10X Zoom and Oppo Reno. The Reno 10X Zoom became the second smartphone after Huawei P30 Pro to use the periscope telephoto lens, capable of up to 10x hybrid lossless zoom. Besides, the Reno 10x Zoom and Reno became the first smartphones with a sharp fin-shaped pop-up camera module that comes out from the top.

When you want to plan a trip, you need a map -- one you trust. So when I was trying to understand the increasingly more complex world of media, I asked my friend the Map Maker. Evan Shapiro calls himself a media cartographer, since our phones, living rooms, and computer screens have increasingly become a complicated journey.
“In 2022, the underpinnings of the media economy have come undone,” he said. “You've got this free-form system of asymmetrical consumption and unlimited supply of content on many different devices all the time, not all tethered to fundamental economically sound business principles.”
Chances are you’ve observed this phenomenon, either as a consumer or someone in the media business. “As this
media system expands and contracts, there used to be the cable bundle and the triple play. Now we are without those things, and the entire system becomes unmoored. Everybody's trying to move into
television and audio and gaming and social media simultaneously, and they're trying to race for the same dollars and eyeballs” explained Shapiro. “But no one can figure out their own
business model anymore.”
Here’s the map that Shapiro produces, and updates every few months:
You can see the players on the media map, and some of the larger ones may surprise you.
“The winners are the ones who can give the consumers enough utility to both pay and watch ads to stay subscribed and use the service on a regular basis” explains Shapiro. “I think there's this misperception now that consumers don't want to pay and younger consumers don't want to pay either, but they do. Younger consumers are more willing to pay than anybody else. We've raised three generations who have been trained to pay for media that they love. Right. And when you go into the income element of things, even people who make less than $35,000 a year are willing to pay for the right types of content.”
comes down to what a new generation of media consumers wants, and what they’re willing to pay for. Shapiro calls it “Maslow's hierarchy of feeds.” He says definitions are changing,
in particular social media. “Yes, people use Facebook, but not everybody. Yes, people use TikTok, but not everybody. There's a lot of social media happening on Roblox and Fortnite right
now with younger people.”
The bigger companies are poised to get bigger. Google is the fastest growing operating system in connected televisions (Android), and the largest share of all video on connected televisions is YouTube, which is also Google, which makes it a hard act to compete with.
In terms of streaming, YouTube had 9.1% of the streaming share in the U.S. as of
February, with Netflix at 7.3%, and Hulu at 3.6%.
Where is this all taking us? Well, advertising of course. But it’s’ not about impressions anymore said Shapiro. It’s about performance. It used to be called CPA, cost per action. Now, it’s pay per action (PPA) performance-based advertising -- and YouTube is the leader in the space. YouTube ad revenue has performance ads outperforming brand ads. As of 2021, performance was $20,768 and brand $8,077, according to Social Media Today.
So, if you’re in the media business, you’re going to
need a map to make a trip to the future. Chances are, it’s a map that is going to get more complicated before it gets simpler.
You can watch Shapiro's talk in its entirety here.

A new Which? investigation exposes the confusing care system that is driving people to breaking point, with those not eligible for state funding often struggling to get basic advice.
We asked 30 people across the UK to keep a diary as they tried to get advice and organise care for their partners, parents or themselves. Our research reveals that people are facing a maze of confusing advice and information, with families feeling distressed when trying to make care arrangements and having to resort to complaining to get things done. One described the process of arranging care as a ‘lottery’.
Surprisingly, those who aren’t eligible for state funding often fare the worst in information and advice, with some people wrongly told that they could not get council support to help them assess their needs. One of our diarists said relatives are left to find their own way as soon as self-funding is mentioned.
The little help and little signposting that people did get can be just as confusing, with many left drowning in a sea of jargon and bureaucracy. Our research found that it’s not always clear to people what roles different professionals play, and people are being pushed from pillar to post and having to repeat key information. One of our diarists seeking care for his wife received a two-hour assessment from the ‘falls team’ which was then referred to another division who also wanted another two-hour assessment because the teams didn’t fully liaise with each other.
A separate Which? survey of more than 1000 people finds that four in 10 (42%) who may need to look into care in the next two years either for themselves or on behalf of someone else say they don’t understand where to go for information or advice, with half (48%) saying they don’t understand how to access services to help live at home. Even those who have looked into care recently don’t have all the knowledge you’d expect with one in five (22%) saying they don’t understand where to go for information.
Councils have a duty to assess people who need care, regardless of how much money you have, and under the Care Bill currently going through Parliament, local authorities will have duties to provide information and advice about care to everyone in their area who needs it, including family carers.
As a response to this problem, Which? has launched an Elderly Care website offering free and practical advice about caring for older people, with information on care choices, including finance and housing options.
Which? executive director, Richard Lloyd, said:
“Organising care is a complex process but we found it’s often made worse by a lack of relevant information, confusing jargon and some services leaving people to work it out for themselves, resulting in unnecessary distress for family carers.
“Which? Elderly Care helps people find the information that’s relevant to their situation, and offers free, practical advice to help them with difficult decisions.”
With major changes to the care system underway, it’s important that standards remain high, which means people need to feel confident to speak up when things go wrong. Which? is campaigning to make complaints count in public services to give people the confidence that their feedback will make a difference and will trigger action.
Notes to editors
1. ComRes interviewed 1,119 English adults who have sought information and advice about care and support services in the past two years (either for themselves if they are over 65 or on behalf of someone else aged over 65), or think they may have a need to do so in the next two years. Research was conducted face to face in people’s homes between 17th August and 13th September 2013. Data were weighted to be representative of all English adults aged 18+ who have looked for information and advice about care and support services over the last two years, based on the results of a previous online omnibus survey (ComRes interviewed 1757 English adults online on behalf of Which? between the 9th and 11th August 2013. Data were weighted to be nationally representative of all GB adults aged 18+).

The Hanover Central girls’ softball team was awarded their Regional trophies at half time of last night’s basketball game. Coach Bolden spoke about the season and their motto “Hold the Rope” which propelled them to the IHSAA Semit-State game. The replica trophies were purchased by the Hanover Central Booster Club and the Athletic Department would like to thank them for their generosity. We are looking forward to another great season with all but three starters returning. Good luck, Wildcats!!

Parts 97 reads: (under definitions)
6) PEP (peak envelope power). The average power supplied to the antenna

the modulation envelope taken under normal operating conditions
Part 97 section 313 defines the actual limits in PEP.
Based upon that I would say peak voltage.

We are thrilled to share a new ribosome profiling approach that leverages the principles of microfluidics and isotachophoresis: Ribo-ITP. Our ongoing work is using Ribo-ITP to characterize translation control in biological contexts that remained beyond reach due to limited availability of biological material. Our studies encompass a broad range of areas, often involving collaborations with domain experts. This work is the culmination of six years of development by many talented scientists. See our Twitter feed for some highlights.
https://t.co/Y9VDhDHfa5 We developed a novel microfluidic isotachophoresis method (Ribo-ITP) to measure ribosome occupancy from ultra-low input samples including single cells. Here, we characterized transcriptome-wide ribosome occupancy during early mouse development. (1/6) pic.twitter.com/qwF8xXJYVk— Cenik Lab (@CenikLab) December 9, 2021
Translation regulation is critical for early mammalian embryonic development1. However, previous studies had been restricted to bulk measurements2 precluding precise determination of translation regulation including allele-specific analyses. To address this challenge, we developed a novel microfluidic isotachophoresis approach, named RIBOsome profiling via IsoTachoPhoresis (Ribo-ITP), and characterized translation in single oocytes and embryos during early mouse development. We identified differential translation efficiency as a key mechanism regulating genes involved in centrosome organization and N6-methyladenosine modification of RNAs. Our high coverage measurements enabled the first analysis of allele-specific ribosome engagement in early development and led to the discovery of stage-specific differential engagement of zygotic RNAs with ribosomes and reduced translation efficiency of transcripts exhibiting allelic-biased expression. By integrating our measurements with proteomics data, we discovered that ribosome occupancy in germinal vesicle stage oocytes is the predominant determinant of protein abundance in the zygote. The novel Ribo-ITP approach will enable numerous applications by providing high coverage and high resolution ribosome occupancy measurements from ultra-low input samples including single cells.

THE SERIES: This is the season's only meeting. The Lightning leads 13-5-2.
KEY INJURIES: Los Angeles _ Jason Allison (whiplash, out), Adam Deadmarsh (post-concussion, out); Jozef Stumpel (chest, out). Tampa Bay _ None.
THE LOWDOWN: The Lightning's 5-1 loss Tuesday to the Capitals snapped its eight-game unbeaten streak to start the season. Tampa Bay's first loss last season, 5-1 to the Devils after a seven-game unbeaten streak, was answered with a 6-1 victory over the Panthers. Despite Wednesday's win against the Panthers, Los Angeles has lost three of its past six. RW Ziggy Palffy led the league with 13 assists and 10 power-play assists. He was second with 10 power-play points and tied for third with 16 points. G Roman Cechmanek had an .876 save percentage in his previous six games. The Kings had the league's worst penalty kill at 72.9 percent. Lightning RW Martin St. Louis has goals in consecutive games. The Kings' last victory over the Lightning was October 1999. Tampa Bay has won two straight at the Times Forum and is unbeaten in six overall (4-0-2) against the Kings.

i can’t stop thinking about what kind of criers dan and phil would be. i feel like dan’s crying would be a slow build up. his eyes just get watery at first, and he tries so hard to keep it in, but eventually the tears start cascading down his cheeks. he’d get a runny nose and his forehead would crease out of frustration because he hates crying, but he does it all the time. when his crying hits its peak, he’d be a blubbering mess, wiping furiously at his tears and constantly blowing his nose. he doesn’t like to be comforted while he’s crying, but when he’s finished and all that’s left is tear stained cheeks, he’d cling to the closest thing, preferably another person that would play with his hair, rub his back, and comfort him quietly.
phil on the other hand is a quiet crier. it happens really suddenly because he’s not afraid to be emotional and soft. his tears build up and he doesn’t try to hold them back. his eyes get red and puffy, and he tries to wipe away the tears quickly with his sleeve. he gets sniffly, but hides it by taking deep breaths through his mouth. his eyes are glossy and doe-like when his crying reaches the climax. he likes to be held the whole way through, even if it’s just someone holding his hand or resting a hand on his knee. physical contact calms him down and helps him feel more real. his favorite thing is when people rub their fingers up and down his arm, it nearly lulls him to sleep, but it distracts him from whatever it is he’s crying about.
“I think I owe you an apology. For not creating an environment where you felt like you could talk about this with me. All those years we spent together growing up, the endless nights talking and sharing, now I realise they were all about me and my secret. There’s never been room for you, and that’s my fault, and I’m so sorry. I know this is not the same at all, but I do know how it feels to keep a part of yourself shut off. To keep it inside. And I know lonely that can make you feel. But Alex, you are not alone.”
