Author: Associated Press | Date: 30 October 2018
Besides the breeze blowing off the nearby Pacific, the only sounds are electronic levers, gears, cranks and the occasional warning sirens bleating from vehicles hauling steel shipping containers to awaiting vessels.
What is unusual for a bustling dock that moves 5.2 million containers annually is that you don’t hear any shouts, laughter or other human speech.
Welcome to Qingdao Port, home of one of the few fully-automated port terminals in the world and one of the most advanced in Asia. Now in operation for over a year, the terminal boasts a loading efficiency of over 33 containers an hour, and in April this year reached a record of 42.9 containers in an hour.
“This is the highest level of efficiency in the world,” Luan Baobo, vice general manager of the port, said. “Traditional terminals are around 23 or 24 containers per hour.”
Port authorities say they developed all the technology for automating the port themselves from the ground-up. Vehicles moving containers use a magnetic guiding system and censors to ensure they do not collide with each other, as well as the overall technology that automatically brings the containers up to the port area for loading. They also developed the first automatic robotic disassembly system for unlocking the twist locks to remove containers from the vehicles.
“We’ve not had any collisions or accidents for over a year,” Luan said. “Traditional terminals can occasionally have accidents, and perhaps one or two deaths a year at a port.”
When it comes to building automated platforms such as this, Shandong province is taking a lead in China.
From companies like Changyu, the biggest wine producer in Asia, to Bright Moon Seaweed Group, the largest producer of seaweed-based products such as food, cosmetics, medical materials and fertilizers, everything here is done on a massive scale that increasingly requires automated systems to keep up with demand.
Nearby in Qingdao is one of Haier Group’s 10 interconnected factories used to make both large-scale industrial air conditioning systems and smaller ones for home use as well. The company has put both automation of its industrial process and intelligent communication with its customers through a platform called COSMOPlat as keys for its continued development.
COSMOPlat allows Haier to monitor and communicate with users of its industrial air conditioning systems throughout China, gathering data on their energy use and efficiency in order to offer solutions on how they can best optimize those systems during their production processes.
“We’ve developed this whole procedure for using the platform, starting from interaction between marketing, manufacturing, producing and when we reach the end user, we can use big data and artificial intelligence to bring the most intelligent solution to our users,” said Wang Xiaohu, Haier CEO for its Mass Customization Platform.
A few hours away in the city Yantai, one of China’s oldest port areas, is home to two major companies also making strides using automation to create advanced systems for extraction industries.
One is Jereh, a leading oil and gas equipment manufacturer that is increasingly moving toward creating safer, more reliable, energy efficient and environmentally friendly equipment due to customer demand and increasing regulation around the world for protecting and cleaning up the environment, according to Louis Song, director of Marketing for the company.
The other, Yantai-based CIMC Raffles Offshore Ltd., builds some of the largest and most advanced semi-submersible drilling platforms in the world. At the assembly area, which is home to a crane system that can lift around 20,000 metric tons — enough to lift some of these platforms for additional construction — visitors are shrouded in the shadows of these massive systems that will soon be sent to sea.
CIMC Raffles has built two drilling platforms that will increasingly become news items in the future — Bluewhale I and Bluewhale II — each, when fully realized, are designed to use pressure drilling systems to extract natural gas hydrates from seabed combustible ice.
The gas trapped in seabed hydrates is a possible major energy source if engineers can perfect the pressure drilling process and minimize the release of methane gas, one of the most significant greenhouse gases contributing to climate change.
Bluewhale I is back at the facility now for retooling after having spent two months earlier in the year as part of a research project the company has partnered with the Ministry of Natural Resources and China National Petroleum Company. The platform can sail from Yantai all the way to the Pearl River Delta where the testing occurred in just 15 days.
“These two rigs will go to the South China Sea at the beginning of next year,” said Pan Xilu, senior manager of strategic maritime development at CIMC Raffles. “Last year it produced 30,000 cubic meters a month of gas in two months. Right now, it is still just testing. There are still a lot of questions that need to be resolved and a lot of technical issues to answer.”

Kathleen Battle, Cyrus Chestnut Kick Off Kennedy Center's Jazz Season
Eve M. Ferguson | 11/18/2013, 8:56 p.m.
Last weekend's concert featuring Kathleen Battle, accompanied by pianist Cyrus Chestnut, was indeed "Something to Sing About," the title of the performance and also an apt introduction for a stellar line-up of jazz programs and concerts scheduled through the end of the year.
Battle, who makes occasional regular appearances at the Kennedy Center, came in full voice to perform songs that she has made her own through the varied repertoire she has performed on her Grammy-award winning albums. With a repertoire that spans over three centuries, Battle is as comfortable performing arias as she is spirituals, ragtime classics and popular songs by Gershwin, Ellington, and Rodgers and Hammerstein. Time has done nothing to diminish her glorious voice, which soared and sweetened to match the varied genres she performed.
Throughout her career, Battle has joined forces with Chestnut for select tours, and the two play off of each other comfortably. Opening with traditional spirituals and sacred music, Battle's voice is strong and emotive against Chestnut's church-trained gospel piano. But when it came time to switch to playful jazz, as she did with Ellington's "Squeeze Me" in the second half of the two-hour concert, Chestnut's versatile keyboards kept pace.
Throughout the concert, which moved from the Gershwins, to "Ragtime" by Scott Joplin and W.C. Handy, to the American Songbook closing out with Ellington classics, Battle's vocals were point and counterpoint with Chestnut's piano, but she also stepped back allowing the consummate jazz pianist to improvise within the tunes, even performing solo on Ellington's "Caravan."
"Something to Sing About" ushered in what promises to be a full-on jazz closeout to the year for the Kennedy Center, which next week will present "American Voices," a program which looks at master vocalists through workshops which are open to the public followed by panel discussions. On Nov. 22, the legendary Dianne Reeves will instruct a selection of students in jazz vocalization followed by a panel discussion. On Nov. 24, gospel powerhouse Kim Burrell will lead a workshop followed by a panel including Richard Smallwood, Deborah Smith-Pollard and Nolan Williams Jr.
As the holidays commence, "NPR's A Jazz Piano Christmas," will be presented on Dec. 7 in two shows at 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m with Andy Bey, Stanley Cowell, Sullivan Portner and Michele Rosewoman. On Dec. 31, jazz piano legend Ramsey Lewis teams up with John Pizzarelli for "Straighten Up and Fly Right: The Nat King Cole Tribute" for a Jazz New Year's Eve. Also on New Year's Eve, Ellis Hall will perform "Ray, Motown and Beyond," taking the iconic music of Ray Charles and Motown to close out the year.
Contact the Kennedy Center at (202) 467-4600 or visit www.kennedy-center.org for a complete schedule and to purchase tickets.

Air Force Academy Public Affairs
11/3/2011 - ANGEL FIRE, N.M. -- Many children enjoy playing in the mud, but most outgrow that urge by the time they reach college. But for mountain bikers, playing in the mud never gets old.
Three cadets from the Air Force Academy's cycling team braved the mud and the snow to put in a gritty performance at the 2011 USA Cycling Collegiate Mountain Bike National Championships here Oct. 28 through Sunday.
Sophomore Coleen Pacurariu, of Cadet Squadron 08, won the downhill race on Saturday, and placed second in the dual-slalom race Sunday. She completed the downhill race with a time of 10:42, beating all Division 1 and Division 2 women and besting her closest competitor by 32 seconds.
Junior Zeb Hanley, of CS 37, finished 17th out of 40 in the cross-country race, Oct. 28, and placed 33rd in the short track race Saturday.
Freshman Karl Schroeder, of CS 19, had to drop out of the cross country race Saturday due to a mechanical problem, but returned strong Saturday to finish 17th in the short-track race.
Angel Fire received nearly nine inches of snow Oct. 26, and while the weather had warmed up by the start of the race, snowy, muddy conditions added an additional technical challenge to the racers.
As a team, Air Force placed 12th in the nation against 21 Division II schools.
All three racers agreed that cycling helps them to excel as cadets, and that the rigors of cadet life make them better cyclists.
"We make the most of what we have to work with, but it's a rigorous daily schedule," Hanley said. "We wake up, go to class, work out, do home work, and do it all over again the next day. It teaches you a lot about time management, but it also attests to our dedication to do everything we can to get in the hours we need to ride."
Pacurariu has had a stellar year, winning 10 of 12 events she entered, and she's only in her second year racing mountain bikes. In the downhill race, she was one of the only riders to stay on her bike throughout the course.
"It was very icy on the top, but it also made it a lot of fun" Pacurariu said. "It all came down to who fell the least, versus who had the most technical skill, although I guess those things go hand in hand. By the end of the race, you just have to pedal your heart out to gain those few extra seconds as you cross the finish line."
Pacurariu grew up in Santa Cruz, Calif., but didn't discover mountain biking until midway through high school.
"I did a lot of skateboarding with my guy friends, and one day they said they were going biking, so I went with them," she said. "After following them down a few trails I decided I liked it even better than skateboarding."
Pacurariu never thought she would have the opportunity to practice her newly learned skills at the Academy but was pleasantly surprised to discover the Academy had a cycling team.
"I had never raced before I came to the Academy, but once I heard there was a team I signed right up," she said. "It has been awesome."
The cross-country course covered more than 17 miles and about 1,400 feet elevation gain per lap, over three laps. Adding to the challenge, mud and snow wreaked havoc on the racers' ability to change gears, a crucial part of the sport.
A fall in the first lap, combined with the mud and grit, caused Schroeder's chain to break, eliminating him from the cross-country race, but he came back on Saturday to put in a strong performance in the short-track race. Schroeder credits his success, in part, to the training he's received at the Academy so far.
"In basic (cadet) training, you learn that your mind can push your body beyond what you thought it could, and you really don't realize that until you're in that situation," he said. "There's a point in any race where there's a hill and you're out of energy, and you just have to push yourself. You see guys get off and walk the hill, but you decide to go ahead and ride it, and it turns out you can do it. So it definitely helps."
This was Hanley's first national mountain bike competition, and his strong performance in the cross-country race set him up for the short-track event. The muddy goo limited him to only a third of his available gears, however, and he placed further back in the pack than he would have liked as a result.
Despite this setback, Hanley said he was happy to be competing in the nationals and believes the experience will help him as a cadet and as an Air Force officer.
"One thing they stress here at the Academy is the whole-person concept," Hanley said. "I think it's essential to be in good shape and to be a well-rounded officer. I try to tailor everything I do here at the Academy to benefitting myself as much as I can, centered around the whole-person concept."
And so far, it's working. The scholar-athlete is a two-time Dean's Ace, which means that he was one of a handful of cadets recognized for having a 4.0 grade point average on two separate occasions.
Lt. Col. Len Cabrera, the officer in charge of the cadet cycling club, said he was very happy with the cadets' performance.
"We're obviously disappointed with the mechanical issues in the endurance events, but it was a good experience for our riders, both of whom were at their first national competition. I hope their experience and Coleen's success will motivate them, and the rest of the team, and get them hungry for next year.
"For Coleen, I expected great things based on her racing over the last two years. She dominated all the regular season races, scoring more points than every other gravity rider, male or female. It's great to have her on the team," he continued. "I wish I could take credit, but she developed those skills before coming to the Academy, assisted somewhat this year by our volunteer coach, Shannon Ambrose."
The cadet mountain bikers racing season is now officially over, but they'll continue to train and be ready for the next racing season.
"Regardless of what career path they take, the leadership lessons they learn from these efforts will help them in their careers as Air Force officers," Cabrera said.

A study by German researchers has concluded what many Asterix fans have long suspected: Traumatic brain injuries were rampant among Roman soldiers stationed in northwestern Gaul around 50 B.C.
The researchers at the Department for Neurosurgery, at Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf, studied the 34 Asterix books and found 704 cases of traumatic brain injury. The study found that the injuries were overwhelmingly suffered by men and 98.8 per cent were caused by assault.
There was no breakdown on whether the assaults involved fists, menhirs or slightly smelly fish, however.
The Romans, who made up nearly 65 per cent of the brain injuries, may have wished that they had been wearing better designed equipment because the study found that while most victims were wearing helmets, these were lost during altercations nearly 90 per cent of the time.
But the study did have some good news for Roman soldiers: “Although over half of patients had an initially severe impairment of consciousness after TBI, no permanent deficit could be found.”
The study does not address the possibility that this helped the Roman Empire survive as long as it did.

You would think it's common sense, don't drink and drive. But so many in Acadiana haven't learned their lesson and continue getting behind the wheel. We're constantly asked, why they're given the opportunity to do it again.
We found out through public records requests, in a three year period, 80 people went to city court for their second OWI arrest. Of those, nearly 70 percent were only charged with two, first offense OWI's, instead of a second offense OWI, which gets your license suspended for a longer period of time. We also figured out thirteen of these suspects were arrested twice in the same month for drinking and driving.
So why? Why are repeat offenders getting back on the road without, in some of the victim's minds, paying the price for their first offense?
The statistics are staggering, one in seven people sentenced in city court are arrested as repeat offenders.
"A person might have multiple arrests but on their driving record; it shows no conviction, so unless theirs proof of a conviction it means nothing," said Judge Douglas Saloom.
But it can be a battle to obtain records, even from other parishes in Louisiana.
"Some of them don't have very good minute entries. Some of these jurisdictions, all they want is fine money, and they don't care what happens to their record," said Lafayette District Attorney Mike Harson. "They might report the conviction, but they're not going to be worried about the niceties of the convictions."
The simple answer, a database, something that, despite the available technology, has never been put in place. You'll recall back in August, a KATC investigation revealed Tyson Dupuis was able to plead to a first offense OWI, twice, because of overlooked court records. He would later be behind the wheel, causing an accident that killed 18-year-old Mitchell Romero. Being charged with a second offense OWI wouldn't have prevented the accident, because Dupuis would have been eligible to drive, but it's an example of why a database is so desperately needed.
"If you want some kind of uniformity you're going to have to do something on a national level," said Harson. "Because no state has the authority to tell any other state how to run their business, or what they have to do."
But a database would not solve everything. Problems also arise when offenders are arrested multiple times, less than a year apart.
"But if the original charge does not result in a conviction than it can not be used to enhance a penalty," said Saloom.
That means if your first offense OWI is pending, you can't be charged with a second. But that doesn't mean you get the opportunity to plead to a second offense if arrested a third time, says Saloom.
"Now understand if you plead to two, first OWI's, your next ones a third. It's not a step ladder," said Saloom.
A third offense, or higher, is a felony carrying mandatory jail time, fines, rehab, probation and community service. And depending on the interpretation of the law, OWI offenders may never face life in prison, even under the repeat offender provision.
"If he's a second, fourth then he's a fifth. And a fifth is covered under the same provisions as the fourth because it says fourth, or subsequent offense. So once you get to fourth offense, or higher, the penaltys essentially remains the same; Up to 30 years in prison," said Harson.
But rather than simply locking up these offenders in the beginning, Judge Saloom believes in solving the problem.
"Sentencing is a balance between punishment and rehabilitation," said Saloom. "When a person has shown they do not want to be put through rehabilitation, then all it leaves you is punishment. If I don't take the time to do what I think is right, how can i expect you to do it right?"
In addition to pushing for a database, Judge Saloom is working with lawmakers to simplify the OWI laws. His hope is to make punishment and enforcement easier to understand.

Nicola, Frank, and Tom are three fellow Italophiles, equal parts inquisitive, daring and conscientious. United over an attitude of adventure, an aptitude for exploration, and a thirst for great bottles, the three joined forces to take on Vecchie Terre di Montefili, and begin the never-ending transformative process to ensure its legacy.
A lover of Italy’s rural architecture, and an avid restorer of vintage Ferrari race cars.
From 2007, Tom embarked on a 6-year project to build an authentic Tuscan house in Southern California from almost entirely reclaimed components. His passion for Italian wine developed alongside this endeavor, and intensified over many dinners accompanied by great bottles with his then colleague, now friend, and Italian wine devotee…
A successful businessman and proud father, Frank’s wine journey started by way of another love, his wife, Nancy. On their honeymoon in Italy, the pair encountered Tuscan wine up close in its natural habitat: over a romantic dinner followed by a walk through the Sangiovese vines in picturesque Montalcino. As Frank puts it, ‘I guess you could say I picked up two lifelong passions on that trip’.
When Frank and Nancy moved to New York with their young son, they were in need of a place nearby for good food and drink. Luckily, the world famous I Trulli’ restaurant, complete with its sister bar ‘I Trulli Enoteca’ and all-Italian wine shop ‘Vino’, was just a few blocks away.
Whilst sampling its huge selection of Italian wines by the glass, Frank became firm palate-pals with the knowledgeable (and opinionated) …
A creative entrepreneur and restaurateur, Nicola was born in Puglia where he lived until he was 11.
Nicola’s career on the New York dining scene has always been characterized by daring and innovation, from his first restaurant Tempo in 1987 to ‘I Trulli’ and its ‘Enoteca’, and New York’s first all Italian wine shop ‘Vino’. With an intimate understanding of Italian wine, from its difficulties to its triumphs, and all the nuances inbetween, it was inevitable that Nicola would one day embark on a wine project of his own…
Frank and Nicola planted the first seed of Montefili when Nicola suggested he could commission and make his own wine. For a few years, the pair floated the idea of managing a vineyard with varying degrees of seriousness (largely influenced by the number of bottles of wine opened that evening), but the seed started to grow, and the question became not ‘if’, but ‘where’. On the other side of the country, in California, Frank regaled Tom with his grand viticultural dream, who immediately wanted to join the team.
The trio was made.
The three began searching with earnest for the perfect location, with not only terroir, a sense of belonging, and great grapes, but a pure place to fall in love with, somewhere they wanted to just be.
They realized they had only one real choice. It had to be Vecchie Terre di Montefili, and Sangiovese, and the blessed hill of Panzano. From then the real work began, with purity and passion.
‘It’s the sides of the mountain which sustain life, not the top. Here’s where things grow.’
Zen & the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance - Robert Persig
At Montefili our value is in our vision. We want to reach for the top, for the utmost, for the very best we can do here, in this very place. We know what can be achieved in a beautiful place, with good vineyards and good people. We care about culture, and respect local customs and techniques, and strive with sincerity to have a positive influence on quality and perception of wines from this special area.
Our goal is to make Montefili better every year. With our minds open, and willingness to evolve, we strive to prepare her for the future, when we will pass down this piece of heaven to other generations.
Vecchie Terre di Montefili casts a long shadow. It is a tree with the deep roots of a thousand hands past; its DNA holds the codes to create thousands of future leaves. Since the Medici in the Middle Ages they have been making wine on these hills. We find beauty in the fact that nobody on this tree-chart is important on their own, they are but one leaf of that ancient tree that continues to grow year on year.
So what is the value of a piece of heaven? We have no idea, but we believe the true value is not in its ownership, but in the knowledge that it will exist and flourish long after us.

With that in mind, I recommend that blog readers who want to contribute donations to the relief effort consider the following organizations, all of which were already in Haiti with proven track records of providing medical care and fostering self-reliance there:
- Doctors Without Borders, which had more than 800 medical personnel in Haiti when the quake hit, has already treated hundreds of people injured in the quake and is working to get more staff into the country. Doctors are setting up medical facilities in tents, since their own clinics there are severely damaged.
- Partners in Health has been providing medical care to the poor in Haiti since 1983. PIH's flagship project is located there, and the agency has a strong record of promoting self-reliance through medical education. PIH is coordinating 120 doctors and 500 nurses already on the ground, with more personnel and supplies slated to arrive soon.
- Oxfam's Latin America emergency response team is headquartered in Haiti, so they are well positioned to respond quickly. They have a strong track record of supporting local rebuilding rather than funneling money to outside contractors. Right now, Oxfam is focusing on water and sanitation (to prevent the outbreak of waterborne diseases), sending badly needed medical supplies, and erecting temporary shelters for the quarter-million or more displaced residents of the devastated capital city.

United Kingdom: Comcast Beats 21st Century Fox For Sky
Comcast, The American pay-TV operator, has put in a bid higher than that of Rupert Murdoch’s 21st Century Fox in a blind auction to take over Sky.
The auction was held on Saturday, and the two telecommunications giants had been in a heated competition for the British pay-TV operator, according to the United Kingdom’s Takeover Panel.
Comcast is currently offering £17.28 per share for Sky ($40 billion), compared to Fox’s bid of £15.67 per share - 10% more – this means that Comcast's bid values Sky at £29.7-billion.
With Comcast's higher bid for Sky in the race that it entered in February, it has become highly likely that Comcast will now become the new owner of Sky in the American pay-TV operator's global expansion, after shareholder approval.
This is a massive loss and disappointment for the Murdock family as Rupert Murdock has tried to get control of all of Sky for almost the entire past decade.
Sky has around 23 million subscribers and 31 000 employees in the UK, Germany, Ireland, Austria, Spain, Italy and Switzerland.
With a robust pay-TV offering tied into distribution and lucrative deals with American TV brands like HBO and Showtime, a production slate of premium local series it sells internationally, licensing agreements for the best premium sports rights such as the English Premier League (EPL) for the next 3 years, and a tie-in agreement with the worldwide streaming giant Netflix.
South Africa's MultiChoice has been closely mimicking Sky's operations and services model the past decade across Africa through its DStv, Supersport and MNet brands.
While Comcast has a large NBCUniversal International Networks office in Central London, Comcast promises to keep Sky's corporate headquarters at its Osterley campus in West-London. Comcast CEO Brian Roberts says that the acquisition of SKY will allow a quick and efficient increase of Comcast’s customer growth and that they are very excited about this new opportunity.
Jeremy Darroch, Sky group executive, has released a statement saying that the Comcast offer is an excellent outcome for Sky shareholders and that on behalf of the independent committee of SKY he wishes to congratulate everyone at SKY on creating such a successful company.

Both the McBride and Valemount communities have been affected by low snowmobile numbers so far this season.
According to the groomer report, the three main sledding destinations in the McBride area, Lucille, Belle and Renshaw fell from 8,449 last season to 5,740 in the same three month span this year.
Dec 2021 – 2345, Jan 2022 – 2724, Feb 2022 – 3380 = 8,449
Dec 2022 – 1728, Jan 2023 – 1276, Feb 2023 – 2736 = 5,740
“Due to lack of snow and warm weather at the beginning of the season it gave a slow start to our sled season,” said Dave Mcleod, president of the McBride Big country Snowmobile Association. “Things are ramping up with new snow in the forecast.”
Valemount has also seen a significant decrease in sledder tourism this year. The three most frequently visited areas around the community, Allan Creek, Chappell Creek and Clemina Creek have all had less traffic. Between December 2021- February 2022, the area had 12,738 users. This year, the same three months brought 8,330 riders to the trails.
Dec 2021 – 3427, Jan 2022 – 6415, Feb 2022 – 2896 = 12,738
Dec 2022 – 1878, Jan 2023 – 3222, Feb 2023 – 3230 = 8,330
“There are many factors that play into this including weather, perceived lack of accommodation, as well as drastically rising costs of living,” said Valemount and Area Recreation Development Association Executive Director Curtis Pawliuk. “VARDA will continue to work closely with Tourism Valemount and our other stakeholders to try to encourage users to return to our beautiful valley for recreation in the years ahead.”

Patients with elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) may have a higher likelihood of developing early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. A study in JAMA Neurology found an association between high LDL-C levels and gene variants known to influence cholesterol levels, including the rare apolipoprotein B (APOB) variant. However, the presence of these variants could not fully explain the connection between this neurological disorder and LDL-C, suggesting that other factors may be contributing to neurologic disease.
Apolipoprotein E ε4 (APOE E4), a gene variant associated with elevated levels of circulating cholesterol, LDL-C in particular, is a known risk factor for Alzheimer’s. APOE, along with other gene variants APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2, have been linked to about 10% of all early-onset cases. Multiple studies have shown an association between high cholesterol and late-stage Alzheimer’s, yet no research has ever established a definitive causal link between early-onset Alzheimer’s risk and high cholesterol.
“One interpretation of our current data is that LDL cholesterol does play a causal role. If that is the case, we might need to revise targets for LDL cholesterol to help reduce Alzheimer’s risk. Our work now is focused on testing whether there is a causal link,” said the study’s lead author Thomas Wingo, MD, an assistant professor at Emory University School of Medicine, in a statement. The goal of the study was to examine the relationship between circulating cholesterol levels and early-onset Alzheimer’s disease and any underlying genetic factors that might be influencing disease pathogenesis.
Wingo and colleagues from the Atlanta Veterans Affairs Medical Center and Emory University sequenced specific genomic regions from the blood samples of 2,125 patients, 654 of which had early-onset Alzheimer’s and 1,471 individuals with normal cognitive function, to examine the link between early-onset disease and known Alzheimer’s variants APP, PSEN1, PSEN2, and APOE E4. In another step, they measured plasma cholesterol levels in 267 samples to assess any connections between cholesterol and early-onset Alzheimer’s.
Similar to estimates in late-onset Alzheimer’s, APOE E4 explained about 10% of early-onset Alzheimer’s. Even after controlling for those cases with the APOE E4 variant, researchers found that patients with higher LDL-C levels were more likely to have early-onset disease compared with those with lower cholesterol levels—suggesting that cholesterol could serve as a risk factor independent of the APOE gene variant.
“Because of the strong association between elevated plasma LDL cholesterol levels and [early-onset Alzheimer’s disease] that was at least partly independent of APOE E4, the authors hypothesized that genetic variants in the gene for apolipoprotein B (APOB), the major lipoprotein of LDL cholesterol, could be involved,” observed Makoto Ishii, MD, PhD, in a related editorial. After adjusting for various factors such as APOE E4 status and sex, the researchers found that the prevalence of the rare APOB coding variant was higher in early-onset cases. “Five percent of patients with [early-onset disease] carried an allele, in comparison with 1.7% of controls,” the researchers reported.
In other findings, early-onset Alzheimer’s disease risk factors such as APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2 showed up in at least 3% of the early-onset cases. Negligible or no associations were found between early-onset disease and higher triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels.
Neither APOE E4 nor APOB were able to fully explain the association between early-onset disease and elevated LDL-C levels. As an example, some of the noncarriers of APOB exhibited a strong link between these two variables, suggesting that factors other than this rare variant might be influencing cholesterol levels in patients with early-onset disease, Ishii noted.
The study provides breakthrough evidence that a link between rare genetic coding variants of APOB and early-onset Alzheimer’s exist, Ishii continued. “As the authors of this study note, it is not known if there are protective variants of APOB that would decrease the risk for developing [early-onset Alzheimer’s disease]. Identifying such a protective coding variant of APOB would greatly strengthen the link between APOB and [Alzheimer’s disease] pathogenesis.”
Although it represents just 5% of cases, studying early-onset disease is crucial, not just in helping affected patients, but also for providing insights that might lead to breakthroughs for the majority of patients who have late-onset Alzheimer’s—and determining whether other factors independent of APOB/APOE might contribute to Alzheimer’s, Ishii noted. “These may include rare variants in other genes involved directly in LDL cholesterol metabolism, such as the LDL receptor and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 or factors known to modulate circulating LDL cholesterol levels, such as thyroid hormones,” he offered.

American Tower closes Eaton Towers transaction
American Tower Corp. has closed its previously announced acquisition of Eaton Towers Holdings, adding approximately 5,700 communications sites to its African portfolio. Total consideration for the acquisition, subject to certain post-closing adjustments, was approximately $1.85 billion, including the assumption of existing Eaton Towers debt.
The company has also reached an agreement with MTN Group to acquire MTN’s minority stakes in each of the company’s joint ventures in Ghana and Uganda for total consideration of approximately $523 million. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2020, subject to regulatory approval, and will result in a one-time impact for American Tower of approximately $65 million in 2020 from the payment of previously deferred cash interest related to joint venture debt.

Women’s rights activists have observed 25 November as a day against gender-based violence since 1981. This date was selected to honour the Mirabal sisters, three political activists from the Dominican Republic who were brutally murdered in 1960 by order of the country’s ruler, Rafael Trujillo (1930-1961).
Finally, on 7 February 2000, the General Assembly officially designates 25 November as the International day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and in doing so, inviting governments, international organizations as well as NGOs to join together and organize activities designed to raise public awareness of the issue every year on that date.

Paxton’s Williams commits to Shorter
PAXTON — When last we heard from Zach Williams, the Daily News’ reigning Small Schools Boys Basketball Player of the Year, in mid April, his future was uncertain.
With no scholarships on the table, Paxton’s star 6-foot-4 forward said his playing days appeared numbered.
“I’m still a little confused about the future,” he said. “I still got a couple months left to decide what I want to do, but if basketball doesn’t work out, I plan to go to Northwest (Florida State College) and get an AA degree then see from there.”
Late Tuesday night, the murky outlook of his future became crystal clear, Williams announcing he had committed to the Shorter University basketball program in Rome, Georgia, with a graphic on his Twitter page.
“100% ready,” he said simply.
This past season, Bobcats coach Jeff Bradley said Williams provided Paxton a much-needed spark after starting just 6-4 one year removed from a trip to Lakeland and the Class 1A Final Four.
With Paxton at its lowest point, Williams showed his teammates how to raise themselves up.
“After our first couple of games we needed to have a talk in the locker room,” Williams told the Daily News in April. “I said, ‘It’s not gonna be easy going back, so we’re gonna have to put in the work we did last year.’”
Paxton lost just twice more the rest of the season — once to 6A Lincoln and once to Hawthorne, 70-58, in its second straight Final Four appearance — and it claimed a second straight District 1-1A title against Jay, 55-32; Williams posted a game-high 23 points, nine rebounds, four assists and three steals against the Royals, shooting 7-for-11 with three 3-pointers.
For the season, he averaged 11.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, three assists and one steal per night.

The end of the 2011 Major League Baseball season was one that will always be remembered for those of us who watched all of it play out over the four-plus hours on the final day of the season. For as much as it was baseball poetry for many of us, the story of certain teams’ success also meant the failure of others.
The 2011 Boston Red Sox became one of the biggest collapses in sports history. The story has been written out plenty so I won’t beat a dead horse. The fallout was the dismissal of manager Terry Francona, amongst other things.
So when the search began for a new manager, the Red Sox set their sights on a few options. They eventually landed former New York Mets manager Bobby Valentine. Valentine has been no stranger to controversy. From wearing disguises in the dugout after being ejected and being outspoken, often negatively, of his own club and organization, Valentine has often found himself in the headlines.
This year, Valentine quickly drew the ire of both Red Sox fans as well as the players he managed, when he criticized third baseman Kevin Youkilis for what Valentine perceived to be “dogging it” on the field. Youkilis, who has always been known for his hard work and dedication on the field, never was able to reconcile with Valentine.
So on June 24 with the Red Sox tied for last place in the American League east with a 37-34 record, and sitting five and a half games back, the Red Sox made a deal with the White Sox and dealt Youkilis to Chicago.
For the past few years, I had often wondered why Valentine wasn’t getting opportunities to manage a big league club. He was often viewed as the frontrunner for many jobs over the years (take the season following 2010 for the Milwaukee Brewers for example), but nothing ever came of it. Valentine, while extremely quirky, has a brilliant baseball mind. His 1117-1072 (.510 winning percentage) career managerial record heading into this season would back that statement up.
But while I had hoped to see Valentine manage again in the majors, my immediate reaction to his hiring in Boston was “this is going to be a disaster.” Valentine is a manager who creates headlines. The Red Sox created enough of their own headlines last season with a seemingly out of control locker room that was lost by Terry Francona.
The Youkilis/Valentine squabble is the latest addition to Valentine’s reputation. It is also the reason the White Sox are no longer looking for a third baseman. Since coming to Chicago, Youkilis is hitting .323/.416/.523 with three home runs and 15 RBI in 17 games, hitting in the two spot for manager Robin Ventura. He has been a huge upgrade from the production the White Sox were previously getting from Brent Morel and Orlando Hudson.
So at the trade deadline, if the White Sox are able to pick up a pitcher, you can look at the early disagreement between Youkilis and Valentine as a reason. After all, they didn’t have to try and improve at the hot corner. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. Ventura and Kenny Williams are certainly enjoying Valentine’s garbage.

Larry Neizmik, a former banking executive and current lecturer in economics at Penn State Behrend, and his wife, Charlotte, recently committed $250,000 to endow the Larry D. Neizmik and Charlotte A. Neizmik Scholarship in Economics to benefit Behrend economics majors with financial need.
“Charlotte and I had the assets to form the scholarship, and giving back is such a great feeling,” he said. “I know from firsthand experience that the monies will help today’s youth. I very much enjoy teaching at Behrend and working with students, and the scholarship is a way for me to keep educating them long after I’m gone.”
Neizmik spent his first two years as a Penn State student at Behrend and earned his bachelor’s degree at University Park,m since Behrend didn’t offer the economics major at that time. He earned his MBA in 1994 with a 4.0 grade-point average, receiving the “Outstanding Graduate of the MBA Program” award.
“The Neizmiks are an excellent example of how the support of alumni and friends can contribute to the success of Behrend Scholarship Extends Faculty Member’s Impact students,” Chancellor Ralph Ford said. “Scholarships, especially, provide much needed financial support and also convey to our students that others believe in their potential to create bright futures for themselves.”
If you think you might like to make a gift to help future students, contact Penn State Behrend’s Office of Development and Alumni Relations at 814-898-6159 or [email protected].

The Alabama House Ways and Means-Education Committee has approved a bill to sell $50 million in bonds to fund improvements to make Alabama public schools safer.
The sponsor, Republican Rep. Allen Treadaway of Birmingham, said the bill is designed to "prevent tragedies in schools" like the recent shootings at a Connecticut elementary school.
He said 46 percent of Alabama teachers are unable to lock their classroom doors. Treadaway's bill would provide $10 million to each local school system to make safety improvements such as installing door locks and metal detectors.
The bill would provide $40 million on an as needed basis for all schools.
Eric Mackey, executive director of School Superintendents of Alabama, said some schools have as many as 80 to 100 doors that need to be secured.

A new study, coordinated by a team from Siena University (Italy) has published findings on heavy metals concentrations in cancer patients’ blood, shedding light on the environmental implications of life in Italy’s “Land of Fire” in the Campania region. The results were published in the journal "Cellular Physiology".
Environmental contamination by agents potentially harmful to human health in the "Terra dei fuochi" (in English: Land of Fires) is at the center of a study conducted by the research team coordinated by Professor Antonio Giordano. The research is based on a screening that checked blood levels of carcinogenic heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) on a cohort of 95 cancer patients living in Campania, Italy.
"The phenomenon sadly known as the Land of Fires, in Campania, is a real emergency" - explains Professor Giordano. "Vast areas of the Naples and Caserta provinces, in fact, have been afflicted for decades by a brisk illegal activity of uncontrolled spills (and burning) of industrial and urban waste of various kinds; and in the same areas, there has been an increase in the incidence of various chronic and degenerative diseases, including cancer. The research project - he adds - aimed to measure the concentration of four heavy metals [arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb)] and four classes of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in the blood of cancer patients living in different areas of Campania".
"We have observed high levels of heavy metals blood concentration (in cases) in some municipalities, such as Pianura, Giugliano, Qualiano and Castel Volturno" stresses Dr. Iris Maria Forte, the study's main author. "In particular - explains the physician - a statically significant result has been observed for Giugliano, where cancer patients have high blood levels of cadmium and mercury".
"Despite some limitations in this exploratory study - explains Professor Enrico Bucci of the Sbarro Institute (The Sbarro Institute for Cancer Research and Molecular Medicine, Sbarro Health Research Organization, Philadelphia) - such as the small sample size for some municipalities -, our preliminary observations confirm some previous studies: the level of toxic metals in the blood of cancer patients in some municipalities of the "Land of Fires" is completely out of safe levels. The causal link between tumor development and exposure to these metals has been known for some time. Since that causal link is obvious, the constant exceeding of legal limits even in the small number of individuals examined is an alarming fact in itself, which requires the immediate extension of the analysis to a larger population, so as to have an epidemiologically accurate representation".
"These studies - concludes Professor Giordano - are crucial to promoting interventions aimed at improving health conditions in these areas. It is necessary to underline that the right to health is linked to the obligatory nature of interventions aimed at protecting the environment and its inhabitants".
Forte IM, Indovina P, Costa A, Iannuzzi CA, Costanzo L, Marfella A, Montagnaro S, Botti G, Bucci E, Giordano A. Blood screening for heavy metals and organic pollutants in cancer patients exposed to toxic waste in southern Italy: A pilot study. J Cell Physiol. 2019 Dec 15. doi: 10.1002/jcp.29399.


Four months after Day N Vegas brought Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Migos and many more to the Las Vegas Strip, live music paused worldwide for more than a year. But anyone who worried the pandemic might derail Las Vegas’ new hip-hop festival clearly wasn’t paying attention to its November 2019 debut.
Day N Vegas’ first edition was a success by most any metric, selling out and drawing rave reviews for its music by fans and critics in attendance. That meant the AEG/Goldenvoice-produced fest would almost certainly be back—and it is.
DNV’s November 12-14 return—set for the Las Vegas Festival Grounds at Sahara and the Strip—will feature another powerhouse lineup. Lamar, Post Malone and Tyler, the Creator will each headline a day, and the stacked undercard will be loaded with the likes of Doja Cat, SZA, YG, Lil Baby, Ari Lennox, Lil Uzi Vert and dozens more.
Travis Scott, originally scheduled to headline Saturday, dropped out after at least eight people died and more were seriously injured during his set at last weekend’s Astroworld Festival in Houston. On Tuesday morning, Day N Vegas issued this statement: “The security and safety of all attending Day N Vegas has been and is always top priority in our festival planning. We continue to work hand in hand with law enforcement, medical personnel and public safety agencies on our protocols for the weekend. Please take care of yourself and each other.”
Weekend and single-day Day N Vegas tickets remained available at press time, so whether you already have yours or are considering purchasing, read on and get excited about the artists on the bill.
A don’t-miss dozen: 12 acts to catch at Day N Vegas
by Amber Sampson
Young M.A. (4:30-5 p.m., Sammy Stage) In 2016, Brooklyn’s Young M.A pulled up on the rap world with her debut single “OOOUUU.” She’s been a New York icon ever since. The multiplatinum rapper is bullish on the mic, shooting well-placed shots at her haters and breaking down barriers as an openly queer female artist in a male-dominated industry. Expect to hear hits from her swagful May LP Off the Yak-—and for the crowd to turn up accordingly.
Rico Nasty (5:10-5:45 p.m., Sammy Stage) When it comes to rap, Rico Nasty’s dancing to the beat of her own “sugar trap” drum. The Maryland rapper coined the term to define her style of trap rapping over melodic, bubblegum beats, but she also draws from the well of nu metal, punk and rap rock. Rico’s 2020 release, Nightmare Vacation, is a fully formed example, showcasing a rambunctious brand of music that’s unapologetically Nasty.
Lucky Daye (7:25-7:55 p.m., Sammy Stage) Before you ever knew Lucky Daye’s name, you knew his work. The 36-year-old New Orleans native has co-written songs for Boyz II Men, Ella Mai and even Mary J Blige. In 2019, he debuted “Roll Some Mo,” a single that paved the way for Painted, a Best R&B Album contender at the 2020 Grammys. Lucky Daye’s a refreshing addition to the R&B scene, one you’ll want to keep an eye on.
Thundercat (7:25-8:25 p.m., Dean Tent) How does one describe Thundercat? Let’s count the ways. Groovy. Soulful. Progressive. LA singer and bassist Stephen Bruner is the man behind the moniker, best known for his Grammy-award winning work on jazz-funk projects like 2020’s It Is What It Is. Thundercat has worked with Ariana Grande, Kendrick Lamar, Stevie Wonder and Erykah Badu, among others. You’re in for a treat.
Kendrick Lamar (10:20-11:50 p.m., Frank Stage) At this point, what else can Kendrick Lamar do? At 34, the Compton rapper has won 13 Grammys, released an album that won a Pulitzer Prize for Music, produced and curated a soundtrack for a critically acclaimed Marvel movie and received a Generational Icon Award from California’s State Senate. Rumors are swirling about a new album as the influential rapper makes his return to Day N Vegas, but his set here is billed as “from Section.80 to Damn,” so it’ll cover his last four LPs. Will we get a taste of the new stuff? With an artist this talented, we’d be crazy to complain either way.
Latto (4:55-5:30 p.m., Sammy Stage) Latto got her first break after winning Jermaine Dupri’s reality TV competition, The Rap Game. The Atlanta rapper’s breakout single, “Bitch From Da Souf,” put her on the map, and she has since joined the ranks of rising female rap stars dominating the game. Latto can flow over anything, including —on current hit“Big Energy”—a sample from Tom Tom Club’s “Genius of Love” (also famously sampled by Mariah Carey on “Fantasy”). Come prepared to sing along.
Yves Tumor (7:15-7:55 p.m., Dean Tent) You won’t find anyone else on this lineup like Yves Tumor. In 2020, Pitchfork called Miami’s experimental electro-rocker one of “the most interesting artists working today,” and two Weekly writers included 2020 album Heaven to a Tortured Mind in their year-end Top 10s. That record’s theatricality earned it comparisons to David Bowie and Prince, but there’s something intrinsically Yves Tumor in the music. Find out what it is when you catch this unskippable set.
Victoria Monét (8:05-8:35 p.m., Dean Tent) Victoria Monét has a way of making every song feel like an instant classic. Her latest single, “Coastin,’” has the trappings of an ’70s-infused funk record, but the singer-songwriter brings a freshness to what’s already familiar. In previous years, Monét has penned music for Nas, Blackpink, Fifth Harmony and Ariana Grande, most notably on Grande’s Thank U, Next. At Day N Vegas, expect something completely original.
Tinashe (9:15-10 p.m., Sammy Stage) Back in 2014, you couldn’t turn on a radio without hearing this pop starlet’s club track, “2 On.” Tinashe has worked with everyone from Britney Spears to A$AP Rocky, securing her spot as a multiplatinum musician. But in 2019, she left her record label, starting over as an independent artist. On fifth album 333, Tinashe basks in that newfound freedom, melding rhythmic pop with strokes of EDM and alternative R&B.
Almondmilkhunni (1-1:25 p.m., Dean Tent) Philadelphia’s rising star might be fresh-faced, but she shows all of the signs of a natural hitmaker. Almondmilkhunni blends airy pop with a subtle dose of R&B, as her vocals glide over standout tracks “Damnboy” and “Grapefruit.” A proud member of the LGBT community, this artist knows who she is and carries that confidence into her music.
Raveena (4:50-5:20 p.m., Dean Tent) Raised in a traditional Sikh house by two Indian parents, R&B darling Raveena grew up with three core influences: Bollywood, Nina Simone and Ella Fitzgerald. Her 2019 album, Lucid, arrived rife with soul, inviting vocals and pure, unadulterated emotion. Raveena’s music is a multi-genre gem, some of the most refreshing stuff around today.
SZA (8:20-9:20 p.m., Frank Stage) It’s been four years since SZA released her groundbreaking debut, Ctrl, and last year, Rolling Stone ranked it among its 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. Fusing contemporary R&B with elements of neo-soul, jazz and indie pop, SZA created a modern romance playbook that feels timeless and right for any season. SZA has been teasing a ton of new music, so time will tell if she’ll unveil some of it at Day N Vegas.

Plymouth Argyle may have lost 4-0 to Scunthorpe United but the result didn't give a true reflection of the game.
The Pilgrims dominated the first half and even though Paddy Madden put the Iron 1-0 up on the 27th minute, Argyle always looked like they would get back into the game.
Unfortunately Antoni Sarcevic's red card made that much harder just before half-time and eventually the extra man helped Scunthorpe to a flattering result.
Jake Jervis looked furious with Sarcevic following his dismissal, with Scunthorpe's Jack Levi Sutton having to hold him back.
Nadir Ciftci had an encouraging debut and if it hadn't been a good save by Matt Gilks he would have been celebrating his first goal for the club.
You can see all of that and more by watching the highlights above.
