Clinton Team Begins To Control Agenda
State of the Union address will be next milestone, when president announces a plan for the economy. FIRST 100 DAYS
TWO weeks into his presidency, Bill Clinton is beginning to gain some control over the public agenda through the daily news media.
On Feb. 1, the White House was careful to offer the press one story line - with on-camera comments by the president himself - about a move to give states more latitude to design their own Medicaid programs.
The next day, the story was welfare reform, offered again by the president himself with the gathered governors as a chorus.
These, at last, were the "new kind of Democrat" themes that Mr. Clinton had campaigned on as his top priorities.
The Clinton administration squandered much of its first two weeks by failing to control the public agenda. Communications director George Stephanopoulos sought to portray the president as spending most of his time and attention on his economic program and overhauling the health-care system. But he spent the week answering questions on the military ban on homosexuals, an issue that put Clinton to the left of Congress.
Republican veterans were sympathetic, acknowledging the daunting adjustment in moving from even a superbly run campaign to running the United States government. Democrats say that on the issues that count - the economy and health care - the Clinton team took office not yet ready to outline its direction.
But the problems the administration is addressing are also larger, more complex, and more politically problematic than most White Houses have launched into. "I think it ought to be credited for having larger ambitions," says Will Marshall, president of the Progressive Policy Institute, a centrist Democratic think tank closely associated with the Clinton campaign and transition.
The agenda now hinges on a date, Feb. 17, when the president plans to lay out his economic plan in his State-of-the-Union address. If he can announce a good economic package, "then he's off to a good start," says Mark Siegel, a former executive director of the Democratic National Committee and a veteran of the Carter White House.
Clinton has told federal agency heads that his proposed federal budget for the next fiscal year will be completed by March 23. He has promised his plan for cutting health-care costs and expanding access to health insurance by the end of April.
That will still be a later start than Clinton himself had predicted. The clarity of direction and focus of this administration suffers by comparison to the opening of the Reagan presidency in 1980. Clinton has cited President Reagan's strategy as a model for setting the agenda in Washington. Mr. Reagan's agenda was short and simple, and it grew directly out of his campaign: cut taxes, cut federal regulation, and strengthen military power. His communications strategy, with its single message of the day, w as a major advance in the art of public agenda setting.
"Mr. Clinton, on the other hand, as good as his campaign was, wasn't quite as prepared, wasn't quite as focused," notes James Lake, communications director for the 1992 Bush campaign.
While Reagan immediately put Congress on the defensive and showed that political body that he must be reckoned with, Clinton admitted Jan. 29 that certain senators had driven the timing and action on the military gay ban.
Clinton has narrowed his top priorities to four. First is producing an economic plan that creates jobs and growth. Any effort to reduce the federal budget deficit is only a means to jobs and growth, Mr. Stephanopoulos said Jan. 2. Next is health-care reform, with the strongest emphasis on cutting costs. In the next tier is designing a national-service program linked to college-tuition aid, and, finally, reform of the political system.
BUT Clinton's approach to these subjects is much less clear-cut and easily grasped than Reagan's was - partly because it is less ideological and more technical, partly because it is more vague.
Reagan's communication strategy was run by then-communications director Michael Deaver, who plotted how to dominate the news with clear messages the White House wanted to convey. Larry Speakes, the press secretary, briefed reporters every day. Both communications director and press secretary are full-time jobs, and no one person can do both well, Mr. Lake argues.
Stephanopoulos does both, although Dee Dee Myers carries the title of press secretary. Stephanopoulos has moved into the press secretary's office, formerly occupied by Marlin Fitzwater.
During the final year of the Bush White House, Mr. Fitzwater carried both titles. But even with his experience and comfort as press secretary, Lake says, "he never became a real communications director." Clinton, he suggests, may need one.

High protein diets have always been popular with athletes. Their popularity increased tenfold during the past 5 years with the introduction of the low carb type diets to the public that include high protein foods.
Regular people who do not exercise can eat moderately high protein foods. On the other hand athletes and people on muscle building diets must eat at least 1gram per lb of bodyweight in order to build muscle. A high protein diet is the staple of bodybuilders. Bodybuilding athletes always include a high protein food source in their daily diet.
High protein foods you can include in your diet are:
Turkey breast Chicken breast Lean cuts of red meat Lean cuts of pork Fish (most fish is high in protein) Eggs & Egg Whites Skim Milk Low fat cottage cheese Protein powders & bars
Whether you are going for muscle building or fat loss, a high protein diet plan can certainly help you either way.
If you are trying to build muscle, you need a high protein intake in your daily diet in order to recover from workouts and build muscle tissue. Protein provides the building blocks for muscle and without it muscle building and growth simply will not occur. During weightlifting and hard training, muscle tissue is broken down. In order for that muscle tissue to be rebuilt and grow stronger, we need to eat a diet high in protein. It’s pretty simple.
If fat loss is one’s goal, a high protein diet is also an absolute must. Most high protein foods are very low in carbs and saturated fats. Therefore by eating high protein foods in your diet, you also also eating quality low calorie foods. In order to accelerate the fat loss process, reducing carbs and overall calories is usually recommended. High protein foods can help you in achieving that.
An average person who trains hard and weighs 180lbs requires a minimum of 180grams of protein in his diet per day. This means at least 1gram of protein per pound of bodyweight. Anything less and muscle building/recovery will not be optimal. Some hard training athletes consume up to 2 grams of protein per lb of bodyweight in order to accelerate the muscle building process. This is not recommended for most people who require a moderately high protein intake. The total amount of protein taken every day should be spread over 5 to 6 meals throughout the course of a day.
Timing of high protein foods is also very important. You should be consuming high protein foods at all times but more for your breakfast, post workout meal and before-bed meal. Start your high protein daily diet by giving your body good quality protein to start the day. Then, right after your workout, consume a protein shake that will help kick start the muscle repairing process. Last but not least you have your before bed meal where you must consume a slow digesting form of protein (casein mostly) that will give you a steady release of high quality amino acids throughout the night.
Eating high amounts of protein in your diet can be very demanding. It requires a lot of time to cook high protein foods like chicken and turkey. The best way to get all of your protein is to use protein powders. Protein powders are extremely high in protein and they are very convenient to use. Just one small scoop of protein can provide 20-24 grams of the highest quality protein available. Make sure you choose your high protein supplements wisely. Do not get caught up in the marketing frenzy of magazines. A tub of high quality protein should not cost you more than $30 at any given time.
For more information on protein foods vs. protein supplements, check out: http://www.bodybuildingapplied.com/index_center_articles.asp?newsId=88
If you decide to embark upon a high protein diet, make sure you include a lot of vegetables and fibrous carbs with your meals in order to help protein digestion. Try to eat at least two salads per day and/or steamed vegetables. Furthermore, try to stay consistent with your high protein diet, day in day out, in order to keep a steady influx of aminos to your muscles. Always remember that if you are not eating enough protein & calories in your diet, your body will use existing muscle tissue to repair itself.
High protein foods are great for packing on extra muscle. To make sure that your diet is filled with muscle-building proteins, it is extremely important to consider which high protein foods you should consume during your daily eating routine. To help you select the best high protein foods for your diet, we’ve compiled a list of some of the most protein-packed foods that you can find in your average grocery store.
You will notice that the list covers a broad variety of high protein foods. This was done intentionally so that you can compare food types and have more options to add to your daily meals.

High protein foods vary substantially in protein, fat, and calorie content per serving. Some of the best high protein foods have high fat counts; however, it is important to consider that not all fats are bad for you, and some can be very beneficial to your diet- even if weight loss is your top priority. Almonds, for example, are rich in omega three fatty acids but low in saturated fats.
In general, if you are looking for an efficient way to increase your protein count but keep your calorie and fat intakes minimal, than fish and lean meats are an effective option. Canned tuna (hold the mayo) tops the list as the most efficient protein source. Skinless chicken breasts, deli turkey, ground turkey, and lean ground beef are also highly efficient high protein foods.

Honey bees tagged with RFID chips
The mysterious drop in honey bee populations—often called colony collapse disorder for lack of a more specific name—has generated a long list of suspects that includes mites, viruses, malnutrition, and even cell phone radiation. Two new studies published in Science suggest that neonicotinoids, a class of widely used insecticides, may belong at the top of the list.
That an insecticide kills insects like bees is not particularly surprising. Neonicotoinoids have already been partially banned in Italy, Germany, and France for their possible role in colony collapse disorder. Still, it remains one of the most common pesticides: one neonicotoinid alone, imidacloprid, is authorized for use on over 140 crops in 120 countries. Results from the two new studies suggest that even doses that do not kill the bee immediately can have enough ill effect to eventually cause colony collapse.
Don’t you forget about bumblebees. While DISCOVER and others have extensively covered the mysterious colony collapse disorder that’s been crashing honeybee populations around the world, bumblebees have not escaped the tide of doom.
Sydney Cameron leads a team that just published a new study of bumblebees in this week’s Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and tallied up some scary numbers.
The relative abundance of four species of bumble bees over the past few decades has dropped by more than 90%—and those disappearing species are also suffering from low genetic diversity, which makes them that much more susceptible to disease or any other environmental pressures. [TIME]
In addition, the geographic ranges of those species shrunk precipitously—between 23 and 87 percent, depending upon the case. That reduction in range could have catastrophic impacts on agriculture:
More trouble for bees: A study out in the open-access journal PLoS One finds that viruses that previously had been the bane of domesticated honeybees have spread to wild pollinators.
A pattern showed up in the survey that fits that unpleasant scenario. Researchers tested for five viruses in pollinating insects and in their pollen hauls near apiaries in Pennsylvania, New York and Illinois. Israeli acute parasitic virus (IAPV) showed up in wild pollinators near honeybee installations carrying the disease but not near apiaries without the virus. In domestic honeybees, such viruses rank as one of the possible contributors to the still-mysterious malady known as colony collapse disorder that abruptly wipes out a hive’s workforce, [study author Diana] Cox-Foster says. [Science News]
UPDATE: Fortune reports today that the lead researcher on this study, Jerry Bromenshenk, had financial ties to Bayer Crop Science—including a research grant—that were not disclosed. Bayer makes pesticides that some beekeepers and researchers have cited as a possible cause of colony collapse disorder, and Bromenshenk’s conclusions in this study could benefit the company. Bromenshenk says the money did not go to this project or influence its findings.
Viruses. Mites. Fungi. Genetically modified crops. Inbreeding because of industrial agriculture. They’ve all been floated as possible causes of colony collapse disorder (CCD), the mystery affliction that’s been wiping out honeybees, and by doing so threatening the agricultural industries that rely on those insects. Despite the flood of reports since 2006 about these suspects (and more absurd ones, like cellphone radiation disorienting the bees), the bee die-off continues without a clear explanation.
A study out this week in PLoS One points the finger in a new direction. What’s interesting about this explanation is its contention that there’s tandem foul play at work in CCD—two of the suggested culprits could be working together. But the mystery isn’t solved just yet.
This spring, many beekeepers across America opened their hives and found ruin within. At a time when they should have been buzzing with activity, the hives were half-empty, with most adult bees having flown off to die. A new federal survey indicates that 2010 has been the worst year so far for bee deaths. Another study suggests that pesticides might be to blame for the mass wipeout of adult honeybees.
This winter’s die-off was the continuation of a four-year trend. At any given point, beekeepers can expect to see 15 to 20 percent of their bees wiped out due to natural causes or harsh weather. But this alarming phenomenon, termed colony collapse disorder (CCD), has seen millions of bees perish in a mysterious epidemic, with some farmers losing 30 to 90 percent of their hives.
As for the cause of this epidemic, experts say their best guess is that many factors are combining to sicken bees, with the list of culprits including parasites, viruses, bacteria, poor nutrition, and pesticides. Now a new study published in the scientific journal PLoS ONE strengthens the case for pesticides’ culpability.
Scientists have long wondered what exactly is killing bees in hives afflicted by colony collapse disorder (CCD), and now they may have found a clue. Bees in collapsing hives showed evidence of damaged ribosomes, which are crucial to protein production, according to a study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. The researchers suggest that an onslaught of viruses may be responsible for the cellular damage.
The findings suggest that CCD, which has been blamed on everything from viruses to fungi to pesticides, may be linked to problems with protein production that could make bees more susceptible to these threats. “If your ribosome is compromised, then you can’t respond to pesticides, you can’t respond to fungal infections or bacteria or inadequate nutrition because the ribosome is central to the survival of any organism. You need proteins to survive” [AP], said lead researcher May Berenbaum.

This text includes sections from the mid of 37th section to mid of 43rd section of a literary work copied in Arabic letters. The text, including some stories told by prophets, religious information and religious advices, has been expanded with short quotations from some suras of the Koran. In the available seven sections of the text, there is no information about the author of the text, the date when the text was written, who its scribal was. An Uzbek Linguist Ergaş İsmailoviç Fazılov, to whom Uzbek folklore researcher Professor Hadi Zaripov gave the 11-page manuscript in Arabic letters as a gift, carried on the first study on this text and published it in Russian under the title of Fragmentı Neizvestnogo Starotyurkskogo Pamyatnika in Taşkent in 1970. Afterwards, he published its revised version in German under the title of Eine choresmtürkische Handschrift über gute und böse Taten in the Journal of Turkish Studies in 1990. I wrote my thesis on the above mentioned text in 2012 by using the facsimile of Fazılov published in the Journal of Turkish Studies under the titles of “Introduction, Language Properties of the Text, Transcription of the Text in Latin Letters, Translation of the Text into Turkish, Index” and “Appendix” in which the facsimile of the text is present. In this paper, the aforementioned text written in Khorezmian Turkic Language and its language properties is studied.

Electricity market basicsSlides [link]
To help reinforce the concepts discussed last week, this week we’re going to be playing the Stanford Energy Market Game. This game simulates the California electricity market.
Required reading and response questions
- Read the Energy Market Game About page and player tutorial.
- Watch this short video on California’s ISO (the market we’ll be looking at in the game).
- Watch this short video lecture on how a uniform price electricity auction works.
- How do generators make money in a uniform price auction like the one described in the last video? Do you think power plants make more money if they bid their true costs or if the bid higher or lower? Response should one paragraph. Don’t worry if you don’t “know” the answer, just try to reason through it.
- Read RFF’s Carbon Pricing 202 Explainer
- What are the channels through which a tax on carbon emissions from electric generators reduces carbon emissions?
- Which channel do you think will be most important (ie will result in the biggest drop in emissions)?

We have heard it before: the tide is turning in Greece. Just one more austerity package, and things are finally going to get better. As I have explained repeatedly, and correctly, these predictions of better times have been nothing but hot air.
Over the weekend the EU Observer published another story predicting macroeconomic sunshine in Greece. This time, though, there is a grain of truth in the rhetorical optimism. But just a grain.
Here is what the EU Observer reported:
After six consecutive years of recession, the Greek economy might finally be allowed to leave its life support machine this year. The country’s debt burden should start to fall in 2014. So should unemployment. It may even post economic growth by the end of the year. Both Greek and EU officials insist that the tide is finally turning.
First of all, this is not a recession. When a country loses one quarter of its GDP in five years, and when more than half of its young are unemployed, it is in a depression.
That said, a look at some economic data from Eurostat indicates that for the first time since the crisis started, Greece may actually be seeing the end of its multi-year decline. More on those numbers in a moment. First, back to the EU Observer:
But if the Greek economy is no longer on the precipice of one or two years ago, it is hardly in good health. At 27 percent, Greece has the highest jobless rate in the EU. Its debt pile is also Europe’s highest at around 180 percent of GDP. More than a quarter of its economic output has been wiped out since 2007. The Greek government has forced through a programme of spending cuts, tax rises and labour reforms of unprecedented severity. … [Greek finance minister Stournaras] points out that in three years Greece’s primary budget balance has been transformed from being in deficit to the tune of 14 percent to a surplus of 6 percent.
The transformation of a deficit into a surplus has taken place while the fundamental tax base – GDP – has shrunken by one quarter, while poverty has skyrocketed and unemployment has turned into an epidemic. This means that the budget deficit has been wiped out not by means of sound, growing private-sector economic activity, but by a total recalibration of the Greek welfare state. In other words,
- The eligibility criteria for entitlements have been totally revamped, primarily by severely cutting what people are eligible for (such as health care, unemployment benefits and subsidies for medical drugs);
- The taxes that pay for the significantly smaller government spending programs have gone up in order to compensate for the revenue loss that follows when the tax base shrinks.
Austerity as applied to Greece and other EU member states is really nothing more than a massive recalibration effort. To see why, consider the following example. Government spends 100 euros and pays for it with 100 euros worth of taxes. GDP is 1,000 euros.
A recession hits, shrinking GDP to 950 euros. At constant tax rates – and with a very simple tax system – tax revenues fall to 95 euros.
Government now wants to close its budget gap, but not by encouraging GDP growth. Its method is instead that of traditional European austerity, combining tax hikes with spending cuts. It decides to cut spending by 2.50 euros and increase revenue by 2.50 euros. In order to accomplish the latter, government raises tax rates by 0.26 percent.
As the higher taxes and the lower spending impact the economy, GDP will continue to contract. The process can go on for years, as demonstrated in, e.g., Greece.
The recalibration is aimed at making government spending – the welfare state – fit into a tighter tax base. This is in fact the overarching purpose with austerity, a fact we should never forget when we analyze the European crisis. It explains why the EU and the Greek government have decided that one quarter of the Greek GDP is a perfectly acceptable sacrifice: their welfare state is more important than the jobs and the future prospects of more than 25 percent of the Greek workforce, and more important than the jobs and future prospects of six out of ten young Greeks.
Consider this for a moment while we hear a bit more from the EU Observer:
Labour costs have also seen a 25 percent reduction. Stournaras also says that average incomes have fallen by 35 percent in the past four years, signifying a huge drop in Greek living standards. … [Finance minister Stournaras] commented: “In economics there is no black and white but I am confident that there is going to be growth this year.” However, the pain is by no means over. Exports increased by 5.4 percent in the first eight months of 2013 to €18.28 billion but, if you exclude petroleum products, the figures are much less impressive – an overall drop of 2.6 percent worth €293.8 million. … Although an export surplus has long been a key target for the European Commission and Greece, it does not necessarily translate into a boon for the economy. Anaemic exports alongside declining consumption is a recipe for a spiral of deflation rather than growth.
Which brings us to some Eurostat numbers for Greece:
|Changes over same period previous year; adjusted for inflation|
|Government debt, pct of GDP||159.0||163.7||170.3||136.5||149.2||151.9||156.9||160.5||169.1|
There is a slowdown in the decline of GDP, but it is still declining. The same is true for the contraction of private consumption. Both unemployment measures show jobless rates plateauing, with a possible beginning of a decline on the youth side. Government debt, though, has continued to rise just as before, a fact I discussed at length back in September.
Undoubtedly, there is a convergence of indicators – GDP, private consumption and unemployment – which could be interpreted as the beginning of the end of Greece’s long, depressive decline. Under one important condition, I am willing to predict that these indicators are right, namely that the slight downturn in youth unemployment is the result of an actual, microscopic but still real increase in employment among the young.
This is a hugely important condition. If the decline is instead the result of young Greeks emigrating, then we have to exclude that variable, and open for the possibility that the plateauing of general unemployment is also due to emigration.
The slowdown in private-consumption decline could indicate that the end of unemployment rise is in fact not caused by emigration. However, the downward trend in consumption is still pretty solid, continuing at levels that we normally see in economies in serious recessions. This means that the economy as a whole is still on the depression track. Furthermore, the decline in private consumption during the depression has been so massive that what remains at this point of people’s regular spending is the bare-bones deemed quintessential for life in a poor, but still industrialized country. In other words, there is not much left for people to cut down on.
One explanation does not exclude the other. The fact that consumption is down to its bare bones could mean that households will be flattening out their spending. This stabilizes the economy at its “survival core”, where all the extras outside of mere, industrial-life survival, are cut away. As this happens, the job loss trend also flattens out, as there fewer and fewer businesses remain in the non-survival sector of the economy. As a result, there are fewer and fewer jobs to cut away.
This is the most probable explanation. It goes well with what the OECD said in November, namely that Greece will not at all recover in 2014. It also fits well with my analysis of the European crisis as a structural transition from prosperity into industrial poverty (more on that in my new book Industrial Poverty, tentative publication date July). Under this explanation, what Greece has to look forward to is not a recovery, but a stagnation that in theory can last forever. Consider life under communism in Eastern Europe a good indicator.
I wish I could be more optimistic, but so long as the ideological preference behind the fiscal policy of both the EU and the Greek government is to preserve the welfare state at all cost, that is where Greece – and eventually the rest of Europe – is heading.

[Online lecture] Recurrent melanocytic naevus vs melanoma
In this online lecture, Associate Professor Andreas Blum provides an overview of how the history, clinical features and dermoscopy of a lesion can help differentiate between a recurrent melanocytic naevus and a recurrent melanoma.
In the scenario of re-pigmentation of a scar, A/Prof Blum speaks about the factors clinicians should assess to determine whether the pigmentation is related to a recurrent melanocytic naevus or symptomatic of melanoma.
Some of these factors include the history (such as the time of recurrence), the clinical and dermoscopic features, and the histopathological findings from the previous excision if available.
A/Prof Blum shares the findings of a recent study into these differentiating factors, describing how diagnosticians can use these techniques in their practice for earlier and more accurate diagnosis of recurrent melanoma, with real patient case studies.

Today’s post is about movies. Well, actually one specific movie; The Lone Ranger. As most of you know, I live in New Mexico. The Land of Enchantment. We have ski resorts, a piece of the Rio Grande, mountains, desserts, Native American Pueblos and movie studios.
We residents of New Mexico are always the first to know when a big name movie is being filmed here. We actually have several famous residents, (Val Kilmer, Julia Roberts, the late Patrick Swayze; just to name a few). Our local papers are on location as often as possible to keep us up to date. But to say we’re excited about this movie is an understatement. This is a blending of the old west meets Native American heritage. Thanks to Johnny Depp, Tonto will be portrayed as the intelligent, savvy, and reliable sidekick he truly is, while presenting authentic Native heritage. Here’s the link to the webpage where you can learn more about Mr. Depp’s feelings on his portrayal of Tonto.
The movie is due for release on May 31, 2013. Obviously, since the movie is only now being filmed I can’t give you a true review of the movie. However, given Mr. Depp’s feelings for Tonto and with Native Americans on site, consulting with cast and producers, I feel this movie will be a much more authentic portrayal of the Native Americans and their interactions with open minded whites. Here is the link for a list of the cast and more information on the behind the scenes activity.
And finally, here’s a picture published in one of our local papers. The woman standing beside Tonto (Johnny Depp) is the Surgeon General for the Navajo Nation, Dr. Gayle Dine ‘Chacon.


Ohio election law is clear: absentee ballots may not be collected or returned to a Board of Elections by anyone other than a voter’s immediate family. So why is U.S. House candidate Kate Schroder and the Hamilton County Democratic Party encouraging community organizers to break the law?
On Schroder’s Facebook Live show, Hamilton County Democratic Party Executive Committee member Keizayla Fambro talked about the importance of encouraging people to vote in the upcoming election. Schroder, a health care lobbyist and corporate executive, is challenging incumbent U.S. Rep. Steve Chabot (R–Cincinnati).
That’s all fine and good, but the conversation quickly took a turn for the illegal.
Fambro—the executive director of political consulting firm Black Fork Strategies and therefore someone we’d reasonably expect to be familiar with Ohio election law—began talking about ways people could break election law. According to this elections whiz, people who don’t feel comfortable dropping ballot off in person or using the mail “can drop it off to different organizations, like the NAACP, drop it off to the Hamilton County Democratic Party. Drop it off to them and allow them to put your ballot in that box.”
This is a bad idea, fam. Bro has it wrong. It gets worse.
Fambro encouraged people to help senior citizens vote by “helping them out, ‘here is your provisional ballot, here is your absentee ballot, I’ll drop it off for you.’”
Ohio Revised Code Section 3509.05 specifically precludes this.
According to the law, “the elector shall mail the identification envelope to the director from whom it was received in the return envelope, postage prepaid, or the elector may personally deliver it to the director, or the spouse of the elector, the father, mother, father-in-law, mother-in-law, grandfather, grandmother, brother, or sister of the whole or half blood, or the son, daughter, adopting parent, adopted child, stepparent, stepchild, uncle, aunt, nephew, or niece of the elector may deliver it to the director.”
Rightfully so, Ohio Republican Party chairman Jane Timken quickly filed a complaint with Attorney General Dave Yost, writing that Fambro’s explanation of the plan on Schroder’s show demonstrates that “the candidate and members of the Democratic Party are planning to illegally harvest ballots.”
You’d think that a political consultant of Fambro’s caliber, one in a position of power so high up in the Hamilton County Democratic Party, would know that her illegal ballot-harvesting plan is… well… illegal.
You’d think that Kate Schroder, someone who aspires to be a lawmaker, would know enough about the law to tell her guest that the hare-brained scheme to stuff the ballots is against the law.
It really makes you wonder why neither of those things happened on the Coffee with Kate Show. It also really makes you wonder… are other Ohio Democratic Party candidates planning on stuffing the vote, and just haven’t yet blurted it out on Facebook Live?

Just like every living being, plants need regular care and attention in order to grow properly. Whether placed inside or out of the home, they ask for love from their owners. But, there is no denial in saying that it’s not possible to always take good care of them. Sometimes, the owners might not be able to provide a good environment for growth while sometimes, there is not enough sunlight to keep them healthy.
In that situation, LED strip lights
come to the rescue with their feature of being the grow lights
as well. Yes, they are capable of providing directional light distribution against less heat production. LED growth lights are actually an inexpensive way to keep the garden in good health, thereby ensuring robust growth of the plants. But, how do owners convert these strip lights into grow lights? Let’s have a look at a simple guide written by led strip lights supplier
experts that comprises of three steps to make it happen within hours:
Step 01: Gather Parts of LED Grow Light
Before practically converting LED strip lights
into grow lights, it is necessary to know the important parts in LED grow lights
. The list includes:
· Adhesive pads
· UltraBright 24 volts LED strip lights
· RTV silicone
· Solderless LED connectors (strip to power and strip to strip)
· Nylon ties
· 24 volts power supply
Step 02: Connect Aluminum Bars with LED Strips
To begin with, measure and cut the strip lights according to the width of the place. Make sure to keep an eye on the markings, which are present after every 3rd
chip, in order to ensure proper cut. Once done, take out the adhesive backing and attach these strips following the position of aluminum bars so that they can work as a heat sink and keep the plants safe from excess heat. This step will extend the life of LED chips while keep the owners rest assured about not spending money every now and then due to a number of reasons.
Don’t forget to connect solderless connectors with the LED strip lights
along with a nylon tie for stability. Silicone blob should also be used on the connection of insulation.
Step 03: Installation of Aluminum Bars with LED Strips
After completing the bar connections, it’s not time to install them at the desired place. take out adhesive pads and secure both ends of the bar so that they the light will be secured above the indoor garden frame. Now, use bolts to strengthen the light structure and maintain equal distance between the bars so that there will be even heat distribution from the LED grow lights
When it comes to providing power to these LED strips, the ideal method is to connect each strip to the supply and use strip to strip connectors to create a circuit. This connection is best for up to 32 feet long strips. So, while connecting the first strip to the supply, take a strip-to-power connector and attach the wire to the female coaxial connector. Now plug the coaxial cord to the male connection of the power supply and turn on the lights.

Iron constitutes the most prevalent nutritional deficiency worldwide. In Chile, anaemia epidemiological data is scarce, evaluating mainly children and women. Our objective was to determine prevalence of anaemia in an inpatient elderly population (≥60 years) and assess the usefulness of sTfR levels analyzed by other authors as a good predictor in the differential diagnosis of iron deficiency anaemia and anaemia of chronic disease. Method. We studied medical patients admitted at Hospital of Valdivia (HV), Chile, in a 2month period. World Health Organization criteria were used for anaemia. Results. 391 patients were hospitalized, average age 62.5 years, 247 elderly and 99 of which had anaemia. Anaemia was normocytic in 88.8%, and we observed: low serum iron in 46.3%, low ferritin 10.1%, high TIBC 2%, low % transferrin saturation (Tsat) 40%, and high sTfR 25%. Conclusions. As a first figure known in Chile, the prevalence of anaemia in the elderly inpatient was 40.1%. Our findings encourage us to promote the implementation of sTfR determination in the clinical setting to analyze the state of erythropoiesis in patients with chronic diseases wich commonly occurs in elderly.
Iron (Fe) is an essential metal ion for living beings; although it is the fourth most abundant mineral in the earth’s crust, it is the most prevalent nutritional deficiency worldwide . It participates in a variety of vital physiological processes such as oxygen transportation, energy production in the brain by cytochrome oxidase, enzymatic cofactor in the synthesis of neurotransmitters and myelin [2, 3]. The main consequence of iron deficiency is the generation of anaemia which allows us to estimate its prevalence in a given population indirectly by red blood cell counting. However, this approach has the limitation of including other aetiologies. The worldwide prevalence of iron deficiency is approximately 30%, resulting in close to 2 billion people with anaemia of this cause. In developing countries, the prevalence of anaemia among pregnant women and children under two years exceeds 50% [4, 5]. In Chile, the epidemiological anaemia data is scarce and sectored, with values ranging from 5.1% in women  up to 36% in infants of low socioeconomic status .
The impact of iron deficiency occurs not only in the hematopoietic system and is more evident in the early stages of life affecting preschool children who suffer from behavioral and affective disorders , increased infection susceptibility, and pregnant women having increased risk of preterm delivery, low birth weight, and death in the newborn (NB). Children, especially premature NB children from mothers with iron deficiency, adolescent girls, and women of childbearing age [9, 10] represent the most vulnerable population for this deficiency because of their increased demand and/or physiological loss of Fe.
There is no epidemiological data available of iron deficiency in the elderly, but they are expected to have a higher prevalence of anaemia than in the general population, since longevity is associated with a variety of physiological dysfunctions, chronic and inflammatory diseases, and occasionally inadequate diet that lower reserves and availability of Fe. Clinical manifestations of anaemia in the elderly add to changes in sensory organs, increasing the risk of falls, with a decline in mobility and loss of autonomy  that results in an increase in health expenses.
When facing a patient with iron deficiency anaemia (IDA), the hematimetric and ferrokinetic classical standards can be altered by concomitant anaemia of chronic disease (ACD) secondary to infectious, neoplastic, or inflammatory diseases [12–15]. ACD is the consequence of the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL1, 6, TNFα)  and some anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10) which induce the reticuloendothelial system to store Fe limiting its availability for erythropoiesis, decrease the half-life of erythrocytes, inhibit the production of erythropoietin (Epo) and decrease the sensitivity of erythroid precursors to Epo [16, 17]. Thus, ACD by itself results in hypoferremia and hyperferritinemia thereby complicating etiological diagnosis of patients with simultaneous IDA. Moreover, normal physiological levels of serum iron are difficult to establish in a population due to its circadian rhythm , technical limitations of the method, and frequent indication of ferrous salts .
In Fe deficiency, the decreased serum iron concentration leads to an increase in total capacity of iron binding (TIBC) and a decreased saturation of the iron transporter transferrin (Tsat). Ferritin (Ferr) and transferrin (Tf) have the disadvantage of being acute phase reactants with limited value in the differential diagnosis of ACD from IDA .
The above considerations justify efforts to design a highly sensitive and specific test to detect iron deficiency, ideally before the development of anaemia [21, 22]. Staining of the iron deposits in bone marrow (BM) remains as the gold standard, but it is an invasive technique. We assessed the use of soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) [23, 24], present in the serum that can be easily quantified by conventional techniques and presents great potential for the distinction between IDA and ACD [24–26] highly necessary for the therapeutic treatment in the elderly. Its’ concentration rises when there is marked lack of intracellular iron as the cell increases the number of receptors on its membrane [27, 28]. These parameters can eliminate the need of using BM aspirate to diagnose iron deficiency in some cases. However, it must be remembered that the sTfR commonly is ubiquitously expressed at low levels. Its expression can be elevated, in a variety of human cancers . In addition to its role in iron metabolism it has been suggested that sTfR may play a role in cellular signaling and proliferation stimuli .
Our aim was to determine the prevalence of anaemia in a hospitalized elderly population and quantify the proportion that corresponds to iron deficiency using the ratio sTfR/log Ferr as a gold standard diagnostic parameter, as other authors , in order to assess later its utility in the differential diagnosis of ACD with IDA in comparison to other ferrokinetic and hematological classical parameters for use in the future in elderly patients.
2. Patients and Methods
We studied all the patients who were admitted at the Internal Medicine Ward at HV, Chile, between October 31 and December 31, 2008. Prior to informed consent, they were asked to participate in this research protocol without compromising medical care for their condition. Identification data and sociodemographic variables were asked (age, sex, marital status, health insurance, urban or rural residence, and educational level), and the cause of their hospitalization was obtained from the medical history.
We defined as elderly adults those with age ≥60 years. We assessed the presence of anaemia through the first inpatient complete blood count (CBC) using the World Health Organization definition: Hemoglobin (Hb) <13 g/dL for males and 12 g/dL for women. Anaemia was considered microcytic when MCV was ≤80 fl, macrocytic ≥100 fl, and normocytic 81–99 fl. The severity of anaemia was considered to be severe: (Hb < 7 g/dL), moderate (Hb 7–9 g/dL) and mild (Hb 9–11 g/dL). Patients with anaemia were further for analyzed serum iron, serum ferritin, TIBC, Tsat and sTfR quantification. The techniques used in the study and their normal values according to the manufacturer are shown in Table 1.
The ratio sTfR/logFerr was calculated in patients with ferritin <30 ng/mL considering the value <1 as compatible with ACD, >2 as ACD associated with another etiology using the flowchart of Weiss and Goodnough . Statistical analysis was expressed as mean ± SD or range of distribution if not distributed normally. Statistical calculations were performed with Epidat 3.1.
During the study period, 391 patients were hospitalized, out of which 247 were over 60 years. Details of their sociodemographic variables are shown in Table 2. It was not possible to survey 44 patients because of their clinical features (confusion, dementia, etc.).
The patients hospitalized () had an average hospitalization time of 6.3 days, with an average age of 62.5 years (15–95 years) of which a 63.15% were elderly. The CBC assessment revealed 99 elderly patients with anaemia according to the WHO criteria. This allowed us to calculate a prevalence of anaemia of 40.1% in the elderly inpatient population. In this population, the mean age was 73.2 years (60–90); the distribution by sex was 59.6% female and 40.4% male. The first three causes of hospitalization were in order of frequency: acute lung infection 12.5%, heart failure 10.2% and acute coronary syndrome with a 9.9%. Analysis of the haematological parameters revealed an anaemia distribution according to morphology of 88.8% normocytic, 9.1% microcytic and 2% macrocytic; and according to severity: severe 3% (Hb < 7 g/dL), moderate 25% (Hb 7–9 g/dL), mild 39% (Hb 9–11 g/dL), and of lower intensity 32% (Hb 11 to 12.9 g/dL). Ferrokinetic analysis revealed (see Figure 1) that serum iron was low in 50.5%, normal in 47.5%, and high in 2%; ferritin was low in 10.1%, normal in 52.5%, and high in 37.4%; TIBC was low in 73.5%, normal in 23.5%, and high in 2%, Tsat was low in 40.2%, normal in 44.8%, and high in 14.6%, and the sTfR quantification was low in 1%, normal in 74.3%, and high in 24.7%. Figure 1, illustrate the variability of the analyzes ferrokinetics present in the same group of patients (Elderly anaemic). Example: Serum iron was low in 50.5% ( patients) and 14 of them had high sTfR. Ferritin was low in 10.1% () and 6 of them had high sTfR, %Tsat was low in 40.2% () and 10 of them had high sTfR.
According to sTfR levels, patients were grouped into low 1%, normal 74%, and high 25%. Using the ferritin and sTfR/log Ferr values according to the algorithm suggested by Weiss , we concluded that there were 67% of ACD, 13.5% of IDA, 9.3% a combination of both, while 1.2% could not be categorized. The statistical analysis comparing the sensitivity and specificity of the sTfR/LogFerr ratio versus the other ferrokinetic parameters (Serum iron, TIBC, Tsat, ferritin, sTfR) was obtained from receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves (Figure 2). The following areas under the curve were obtained for serum iron 0.2487, Tsat 0.1938 and ferritin 0.1061. sTfR and TIBC areas under curve was better: 0.9609; 0.7538, respectively. But when comparing the areas under the curve of sTfR and TIBC, any of them is a better diagnostic support if we do not have other test (e.g.,: Perl’s stain), since both have asymptotic significance less than 0.05. However, the confidence interval for TIBC test was significantly lower than sTfR, which was a statistically significant difference between the two areas under described under the ROC curves (χ2 test of homogeneity ).
From an epidemiological point of view, the prevalence of anaemia was 40.1% for elderly hospitalized patients which is higher than that reported in other age groups in Chile and was unknown until now [6, 31, 32].
Our study confirms that sTfR quantification is a valid method to analyse the erythropoiesis in several diseases. To evaluate the clinical usefulness of sTfR in elderly patients for determining their iron deficiency status, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used, and the maximum discrimination cut-off point was calculated (see Figure 2). The sTfR was highly superior (sTfR area under ROC curve = 0.9609) to discriminate IDA from ACD in an adult patient population as compared to the classical ferrokinetics and haematological parameters. Ferrokinetic studies in the analyzed population were not useful for evaluating iron reserves and even were misleading in the diagnosis. A low ferritin concentration had been described as a good parameter for diagnosing iron deficiency anaemia  however, it only managed to predict 10% of patients with anaemia of this type in our study. The low Tsat was consistent with iron deficiency anaemia in 25%, but did not discriminate with ACD. This is consistent with the fact that transferrin, similar to ferritin, is an acute phase reactant which is elevated in inflammatory disorders , still both are widely used  in clinical practice due to the simpler technique and low cost. Furthermore, low levels of transferrin or TIBC may be due to increased degradation rather than decreased synthesis, as a result of increased protein catabolism secondary to catabolic or antianabolic proinflammatory cytokines [35, 36]. Our study confirms that the analysis of different individual ferrokinetic parameters is of little use in patients with concomitant systemic diseases, which are especially prevalent in the elderly; see ROC curves and areas.
In elderly adults requiring hospitalization, ACD was the primary cause of anaemia constituting over 75% of cases, while only 10% were due to iron deficiency. Folic acid and/or vitamin B12 deficiencies were not analyzed because it was beyond the scope of this study. Finally, the method of excellence to evaluate iron deposits remains bone marrow aspirate analysis with Perls stain constituting in some cases the only technique for diagnosing iron deficiency, however, this test cannot be performed routinely because it is invasive, expensive and slow [37, 38]. Our work shows that quantification of sTfR is more sensitive and specific for discriminating iron deficiency anaemia from anaemia associated with inflammatory events, consistent with work from others authors [21, 23, 39, 40], and will be a useful diagnostic tool for the future in our elderly patients. It is also necessary to note that most of the study population was admitted to the hospital primarily for cardiac diseases (29.22%), respiratory diseases (13.14%), and renal failure (6.17%). The latter is directly related to the generation of anemia by a low secretion of Epo, which must be considered when making the sTfR test if a patient with impaired renal function.
This sTfR/logFerr ratio gives us an inverse linear relationship of the iron stores state and has the advantage of combining the increase of one parameter (sTfR) and the decline of another (ferritin) [21, 41]. Our findings encourage us to promote the implementation of this determination (sTfR) in the clinical setting as was previously proposed [24, 26, 42], and high interest for the elderly adults. It is important to note that this method still requires international standardization in order to define normal ranges, which at the present time limits its routine clinical application .

Rotterdam coalition loses majority due to city councilor's party switch
The Rotterdam coalition of Leefbaar Rotterdam, CDA and D66 no longer has the support of a majority of city councilors as councilor Mohammed Anfal switched from Leefbaar to Islam inspired party NIDA. Party leader Nourdin el Ouali announced the switch to NRC on Monday evening. The city council will discuss the consequences of the switch in an emergency debate on Thursday. Mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb is meeting party leaders to talk about it today, according to AD.
Anfal is more attracted to NIDA because it works to find connection, and that is what Rotterdam needs, he said. At Leefbaar he felt like the "poster-Moroccan", he said to NRC. He joined Leefbaar Rotterdam because in 2014 because the party helped him in a conflict with the municipality. "They say that origin does not matter. But they are dividing the city. They increase the gap between rich and poor", he said.
He went to NIDA leader Nourdin el Ouali, and after months of discussion and consideration, NIDA decided to take him in. Anfal decided to turn to NIDA instead of splitting off into a one-man faction because he wants to "come to terms" with himself, he said to the newspaper. "For three years I voted with Leefbaar on anti-social policy. I want to make something better, now while I still can."
Despite Anfal already approaching NIDA in March, Leefbaar Rotterdam was shocked by his departure. Only when Anfal left the group app on Monday night did they realize something is going on, according to AD. Their ignorance led to some snide responses from other parties. "Amazing not to know what's going on in their own faction. Sincere interest", PvdA councilor Aruna Radjkoemar said.
Rotterdam Mayor Aboutaleb is meeting with party leaders today, in preparation for the emergency debate on Thursday. He sees three possibilities for the now minority coalition. "Either the college continues as a minority coalition, where a majority must be obtained in the city council on each subject, or the coalition is repaired and a new party is added, or the coalition agreement is renegotiated and there will be new aldermen", he said to AD.
