Nicholas Maw is a dominant force in contemporary British music. His Violin Concerto won for Joshua Bell the Mercury Music Prize for Classical Album of the Year in 2000, while his latest opera, Sophie’s Choice—a Covent Garden commission setting William Styron’s harrowing tale of Auschwitz and its aftermath—is currently receiving its American premieres.
Throughout his long career Maw has periodically found time amidst his predominantly orchestral and operatic output to craft some inimitable choral works. This new recording by Schola Cantorum of Oxford present many first recordings and gives a broad overview of Maw’s choral achievements.
Swelling organ accompaniment opens the programme with the Three Hymns; Maw’s reponses to these metaphysical texts are innovative and effective. Two cycles of five miniatures, Epigrams and Irish Songs, show a very different complexion. From the ribald humour of On a noisy polemic to the intense lyricism of Ringleted youth of my love Maw puts his singers to the test, with results that are at once entertaining and moving.
The programme is completed by five carol settings and One foot in Eden, commissioned by King’s College Cambridge as part of their 500th anniversary celebrations in 1990. It demonstrates a composer in total command of his medium and is impressive in its varied choral writing and striking use of harmony and melody.
Performances by Oxford University’s crack chamber choir, Schola Cantorum, under their director Mark Shepherd, are taut and responsive, the perfect vehicle for this music which deserves the opportunity to reach a wider public.
All works except for One foot in Eden still, I stand and Balulalow are here recorded for the first time.

Conservation group boosts Sidmouth FolkWeek
PUBLISHED: 09:30 25 June 2013
The Sid Vale Association’s Keith Owen Fund pledged £8,000 to Sidmouth FolkWeek so the town’s cultural traditions can live on in the next generation.
Sidmouth Primary School classes are benefiting from music workshops and art classes to encourage the youngsters to get involved in the festival. The donation was made as part of the civic society’s commitment to preserving the town’s heritage.
The Reverend Handel Bennett, the chairman of the Keith Owen grants committee, said: “As a conservation society we are very pleased to see folk traditions maintained and preserved in Sidmouth. This year we are backing their efforts to produce some great ideas with youngsters from Sidmouth Primary School, who are learning and performing traditional folk arts.”
Receiving the cheque was festival director John Braithwaite, who said: “We are bringing opportunities to the children of Sidmouth – it wouldn’t have happened without the Keith Owen Fund.”
Bev and Ray Langton, who produce the Children’s Festival, visited the primary school on Monday to give them a taste of what to expect during the festival.
They took six classes through the day, teaching the youngsters to play the melodeon.
“We taught them to play ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ - and they have all been little stars,” Bev said.
As well as music workshops, the youngsters will be designing flags to represent life in a seaside town that will be flown in future FolkWeeks.
Children will also have the chance to try traditional arts, crafts and dancing, and there will be special family performances across the week.

Scientists at EPFL, in collaboration with startup Xsensio, have developed a graphene-enhanced wearable system that can continually measure the concentration of cortisolâthe stress hormoneâin human sweat. Their device can potentially help to better understand and treat stress-related conditions like burnout and obesity.
The team developed a small wearable sensor that can be placed directly on a patient's skin and can continually measure the concentration of cortisol, the main stress biomarker, in the patient's sweat.
While cortisol helps our bodies respond to stressful situations, it's actually a double-edged sword. It's usually secreted throughout the day according to a circadian rhythm, peaking between 6am and 8am and then gradually decreasing into the afternoon and evening. "But in people who suffer from stress-related diseases, this circadian rhythm is completely thrown off," says Ionescu. "And if the body makes too much or not enough cortisol, that can seriously damage an individual's health, potentially leading to obesity, cardiovascular disease, depression or burnout."
Blood tests can be used to take snapshot measurements of patients' cortisol levels. However, detectable amounts of cortisol can also be found in saliva, urine and sweat. Ionescu's team at Nanolab decided to focus on sweat as the detection fluid and developed a wearable smart patch with a miniaturized sensor.
The patch contains a transistor and an electrode made from graphene which, due to its unique proprieties, offers high sensitivity and very low detection limits. The graphene is functionalized through aptamers, which are short fragments of single-stranded DNA or RNA that can bind to specific compounds. The aptamer in the EPFL patch carries a negative charge; when it comes into contact with cortisol, it immediately captures the hormone, causing the strands to fold onto themselves and bringing the charge closer to the electrode surface. The device then detects the charge, and is consequently able to measure the cortisol concentration in the wearer's sweat.
So far, no other system has been developed for monitoring cortisol concentrations continuously throughout the circadian cycle. "That's the key advantage and innovative feature of our device. Because it can be worn, scientists can collect quantitative, objective data on certain stress-related diseases. And they can do so in a non-invasive, precise and instantaneous manner over the full range of cortisol concentrations in human sweat," says Ionescu.
The engineers tested their device on Xsensio's proprietary Lab-on-Skin platform; the next step will be to give it to healthcare workers for field testing. Esmeralda Megally, CEO of Xsensio, says: "The joint R&D team at EPFL and Xsensio reached an important R&D milestone in the detection of the cortisol hormone. We look forward to testing this new sensor in a hospital setting and unlocking new insight into how our body works." The team has set up a bridge project with Prof. Nelly Pitteloud, chief of endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism at the Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV), for her staff to try out the continuous cortisol-monitoring system on human patients. These trials will involve healthy individuals as well as people suffering from Cushing's syndrome (when the body produces too much cortisol), Addison's disease (when the body doesn't produce enough) and stress-related obesity. The engineers believe their sensor can make a major contribution to the study of the physiological and pathological rhythms of cortisol secretion.
The technology also has potential for impact in the psychological diseases caused by too much stress: "For now, they are assessed based only on patients' perceptions and states of mind, which are often subjective," says Ionescu. "So having a reliable, wearable system can help doctors objectively quantify whether a patient is suffering from depression or burnout, for example, and whether their treatment is effective. What's more, doctors would have that information in real time. That would mark a major step forward in the understanding of these diseases." The sensors could one day be incorporated into smart bracelets. "The next phase will focus on product development to turn this exciting invention into a key part of our Lab-on-Skin sensing platform, and bring stress monitoring to next-generation wearables," says Megally.

Do you appreciate good work of others?
The other day, I had gone with a friend of mine for a painting exhibition of teenagers. As we stood before a painting titled as “Winning Energy,” which was an awesome abstract painting by a young girl of 13, we both were struck by the brilliance of it. It was a painting portraying a galloping horse; the colors, the expression, the energy and the milieu – everything was awesome. Every detail in the painting stood out and it simply showed the strength of the young painter. My friend and I immediately wrote our remarks in the space provided for visitors. While writing my remarks, I heard another lady speaking some unwanted things about the artist, about her background and her parents. The lady was quite loud. Like me, many other visitors did not appreciate the lady’s remarks.
Is it so difficult to appreciate somebody’s good work? As a society are we so narrow-minded to value good work? Why do people criticize and snub others’ great works – we cannot appreciate other’s good work, good deeds when we are jealous of them. Many times we do not appreciate others due to some petty and insignificant reasons, and trust me; it is our own weakness of not recognizing the goodness in others. Even if we don’t appreciate good work, there are millions of people to appreciate and support those who are doing something good for the society. There are some great artists, physicians, scientists, architects, lawyers, writers, journalists, politicians, and philanthropists who are doing good work and making our living better. I believe not appreciating others for their good work is our own loss.
Remember, when we learn to appreciate others, we never lose anything, instead we become better persons. Appreciating others helps us to enhance our gratefulness and will also boost the doers’ capacity and fortitude. The world requires good work of people. If we cannot do some good work, at least let’s appreciate other’s good work.
May be you don’t stop when you see an accident on road, but somebody else does stop; maybe you don’t contribute for somebody’s illness, but somebody else does; there are some good hearts who are helping people in emergencies, there are some generous people not very rich but, they still help some patient have better facilities in hospital. We don’t need to be rich to help, we need a strong heart, and we need compassion to lend other a support in their crucial times. If we can’t, let us at least appreciate those who go out of their way to reach out.
Learning to appreciate others’ ideas, sincerity, contribution, good deeds etc enhance one’s life. If we really take some time to ponder on how many people have helped us – done well to us so far in our lives; if we really count all those people and their contribution to our personal growth, and just bless them, it will harness the power of gratitude within us. Please try doing this, and it does feel really good.
Harness the power of gratitude within you. Many people for many good works, good deeds, good art, have never received any appreciation or reward in their lifetime. Do they need to be remembered after they pass away from this world? It is much better to say a word of appreciation while they are living than writing a beautiful biography or carrying a bouquet on their death ceremony. It is simply an act of hypocrisy in my opinion. The dead people – those imparted souls cannot see or smell beautiful flowers or read great biography written on them in their praise. While the person is alive, a simple appreciation is what is required. Appreciating others and talking good of others after they are dead is one of the weakest attitudes of mankind in this world.
But friends, many people work hard regardless of others appreciation and recognition. But what about those young children who need to be held, who need to be supported, who need to be appreciated and recognised? Let’s not be cruel – let’s appreciate the youngsters to have a better and bright world tomorrow. Let’s harness their talent and their worth – so that we have more innovations and advancement for the future generations of our. Appreciation should come from our heart. If we do not appreciate others from our hearts, it is better not to show our artificial appreciation because it only wastes energy and time.
By appreciating we can boost and harness our relationships with others. A simple ‘Thank you’, Get well soon’’, ‘Happy Birthday’, Congratulation’, ‘Love You’, ‘Care for you’ can make great wonders in relationships. It’s so easy to forget and be aloof by not cheering others, by not loving others, not sympathizing with others, and not appreciating others.
In fact, to recognize others for their small good deeds is so beautiful. This simple tactic can literally transform an important relationship like a marriage, an employment, or friendship. If you constantly are ignorant about seeing the goodness in others, you will see your relationships will slowly deteriorate. Nobody wants to be associated with a self-centered, uncouth person.
It’s not too late to learn to say ‘’thank you’’ whenever someone shows you the least bit of consideration. Doing this will make you feel better and it will encourage others to be more considerate. There are plenty of rude and inconsiderate people out there in the world, but you can be a force for good people by simply spreading some appreciation and gratitude around. When you notice some good work of others, be quick to express appreciation and watch what happens – you will only see kindness, goodness, and uprightness around you.

Tool and farm supply company continues push into upstate NY
- Staff Albany Business Review
Runnings, a Midwestern farm, tool and clothing retail chain, is poised to acquire a former Lowe's store in Ticonderoga, NY as the privately-held company moves forward with its aggressive push into New York state.
According to a report by the Plattsburgh Press-Republican, Runnings is negotiating the purchase of the former building supply store that closed three years ago due to lower than expected sales.
Plans for the Ticonderoga store come two weeks after a marketing official from Runnings confirmed that the company had acquired a 90,000 square foot former Walmart store in Johnstown, NY where it plans to open its first New York store.
Runnings, which is based in Minnesota, operates 34 stores in the Midwest, but plans to open five stores in New York and one in New Hampshire by 2015.

Prince William and Catherine are suing French magazine for publishing topless photographs
Did the tabloid go over too far?
The royal couple is suing Closer, a French tabloid magazine for publishing topless photos while Kate Middleton was sunbathing topless at the private residence. Prince William and Catherine are demanding $1.6 million (1.5 million Euros). This is for damages over the photos of the Duchess of Cambridge in 2012, the magazine's lawyer told the UK Press Association on Tuesday. Closer is a different publication from the UK's Closer magazine.

The trial began on Tuesday in French court for the six people connected to Closer magazine and the regional newspaper La Provence, the Press Association reported. The tribunal de Nanterre is hosting the trial related to the paparazzi photos of topless Duchess of Cambridge.
The explicit images showed the duchess sunbathing topless while vacationing in the South of France in 2012 in the couple's private villa. They scandalized St. James Palace and dredged up memories of the royal family's rocky relationship with the media 15 years after the death of William's mother, Princess Diana, as she fled photographers in Paris. The palace called the photos a grotesque invasion of privacy, similar to the kind of harassment Princess Diana faced. This legal action is an effort to prevent this injustice from repeating itself.
"The incident is reminiscent of the worst excesses of the press and paparazzi during the life of Diana, Princess of Wales, and all the more upsetting to The Duke and Duchess for being so," a source from the palace back in 2012.
The royal couple is suing a French tabloid over topless photos taken while the duchess was sunbathing topless at the private villa. The pictures were taken from a long-lens camera when the couple was on vacation.

In many ways, this lawsuit is a way of trying to prevent history from repeating itself.

"According to the Press Association, Ernesto Mauri, chief executive of the publishing group that produces Closer, faces one charge of using a document obtained by a breach of privacy, along with Marc Auburtin, La Provence's publishing director at the time. Laurence Pieau, editor of Closer magazine, is charged with complicity. Agency photographers Cyril Moreau and Dominique Jacovides and Valerie Suau, who was a photographer for La Provence, face charges of invasion of privacy and complicity."
Paul-Albert Iweins, representing Closer magazine, argued that there was nothing inappropriate about the photos. The depict the royals "in a positive light" and did not constitute a breach of privacy, the Press Association said. However, Prince William conveyed that it was unwise to publish the photographs of his wife was "particularly shocking" especially considering his late mother's conflicts with the paparazzi.

The couple's lawyer, Jean Veil, read this in court Tuesday on William's behalf:
"In September 2012, my wife and I thought that we could go to France for a few days in a secluded villa owned by a member of my family, and thus enjoy our privacy... The clandestine way in which these photographs were taken was particularly shocking to us as it breached our privacy."
A French court fined Closer in 2012 for printing the images and banned it the distribution of the magazine in any form. There should give a verdict to resolve this trial on July 4.

THE AFL will partner with Channel Seven to broadcast the highly popular EJ Whitten Legends Game for the next five years.
The annual match will be played at Etihad Stadium during the week's break between round 23 and the finals series.
AFL general manager of clubs and AFL operations Travis Auld said the League was pleased to confirm its commitment to the match.
"The legends game has a great history and is much loved by our fans and supporters. We are delighted to be partnering with the EJ Whitten Foundation to promote the game, and to entrench this into the weekend in the lead up to our final series," Auld said.
"The commitment of the EJ Whitten Foundation to raising the issue of men’s health and in particular, prostate cancer is a very worthy cause, and we look forward to being part of the team to make the legends game bigger and better than ever."
Net proceeds will be distributed to the EJ Whitten Foundation and the AFL’s charity partners.
The foundation honours the legacy of EJ Whitten, who died after a long and public battle with prostate cancer.
Since its inception in 1995, the EJ Whitten Foundation has raised more than $8.5m for prostate cancer research and awareness.
The future of the match was put in doubt when it was reported late in 2015 that the foundation and its management company ended their partnership after a dispute about the game's finances.
The cancer charity had been receiving about $100,000 from money raised at the mid-year match, but had been banking on a more lucrative deal.
Channel Nine had been the official broadcaster of the match for the past 20 years.
The 2014 event was the fourth most-watched game of Australian rules football on television that year, and the match regularly draws a Melbourne audience approaching half a million people.
Ticket prices are expected to be set at $20 for adults, $15 for concession, $5 for children and $40 for a family ticket.

Parliament of Kyrgyzstan supported the decision of the parliamentary commission to refuse to strip a deputy Bakyt Zhetigenov of his immunity.
According to the Chairwoman of the commission Aisuluu Mamashova, the charges of the Prosecutor General’s Office are not supported by a sufficient evidence base.
«Bakyt Zhetigenov did not stage a rally in Chui region. He participated in the rally as a member of Parliament and a person of authority in Chui region. There were no calls for seizure of power in his speech,» Aisuluu Mamashova said.
The commission’s decision was supported by 88 MPs with one against.
Bakyt Zhetigenov is suspected of attempt to seize power. He was detained and placed in a pre-trial detention center. The investigation believes that he entered into an agreement with the leader of El Yntymagy association Askat Temraliev. Members of this movement and Bakytbek Zhetigenov were organizing mass protests in the capital, after which a violent seizure of power was to take place.

‘We’ve always cooked kangaroo. We still cook kangaroo. Although sometimes we use cookbooks now’ : Aboriginal Australians and cookbooks
journal contributionposted on 2017-12-06, 00:00 authored by Bronwyn FredericksBronwyn Fredericks, R Stoter
Aboriginal Australians have a long history of eating native animals and plants. Food preparation techniques were handed down through the generations, without any need for cookbooks. But colonisation changed the diets of Aboriginal Australians, introducing us to a processed diet high in salt, sugar and fat, and causing a wide range of diet-related health problems. Over the years, many Aboriginal Australians lost their connections to traditional food preparation practices. In this paper, the authors provide a brief overview of Aboriginal food history and describe a newly-emerging focus on reintroducing native foods. They describe the work of an Aboriginal chef, Dale Chapman, who is actively promoting native foods and creating a native-Western food fusion. Chapman has developed native food recipes and a cookbook, in an effort to make native foods accessible to all Australians. She promotes a future when native foods are part of the identity of all Australians – both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal.

Universal Design for Learning and the Arts
“I'm a great believer that any tool that enhances communication has profound effects in terms of how people can learn from each other, and how they can achieve the kind of freedoms that they're interested in” (Bill Gates).
Once again, I have the pleasure of being a guest online lecturer for a Universal Design for Learning course hosted by The George Washington University in Washington, DC. I would like to share with you the mini-lecture on the arts and Universal Design for Learning that I posted during the online discussion. I hope that this information will continue to spark ideas and conversation.
A book that made a profound impact upon my life was Howard Gardner’s, Theory of Multiple Intelligences. I read it and thought …he understands what it is to be an artist…he understands that there are multiple view points and they can all be valued..he understands that honoring multiple intelligences will lead to a full picture of a topic as informed by a confluence of the intelligences of multiple learners. I found his ideas liberating in my art studio allowing my elementary and middle school students to bring their sensitivity their unique way of knowing something to each project. Collaboratively we decided to drastically move away from uniform outcomes, students were encouraged to create from their hearts, what they saw, how they saw, how they felt and experienced their world. Below are paintings of “The Essence of a Bicycle” painted by fifth grade students.
The Essence of a Bicycle
As a lifelong artist and elementary and middle school art teacher I took it for granted that the integration of tools for learning and learning itself were so intertwined that they created transparent processes in the studio. For example, one could see the progress by watching the students mix colors, use brushes, start with a blank canvas and gradually create a painting, which connected their internal thoughts with the external world. Four years ago I took a Universal Design for Learning (UDL) course. I realized that there was a synergy between the art studio and UDL and I began exploring ways to embed the use of technology both as a teaching and learning tool and a modality of expression into my art classes. What developed was a practice in my art studio where students were free to use the computer, scanner and printer as touchstones of innovation to explore and gather information by visiting various websites, to plan and create artwork and even sound-scapes. This technology provided content, inspiration and a platform for creating. Even video games, many of which have negative reputations, were used to spark discussion about art technology and censorship. Technology in my view pushes the boundaries of learning in studio beyond the walls! It offers paperless, instantaneous communication, access to information, artistic creative capabilities once thought unimaginable, virtual realities, a new language of knowing and a platform for educating that asks us to re-examine the traditional modes of teaching and learning. An example of art and technology used for teaching physics is found in the visual applets created at MIT for use in thier freshmen physics studio. They are beautiful to look at and create artistic images of what is scientific truth but is invisible to our eyes. Art and technology marry to make visible the invisible!! I have linked to
“The Falling Ring with Finite Resistance". What a beautiful work of art and valuable teaching tool!
Perhaps a confluence of technology and the arts may offer great promise in helping to solve the dropout epidemic in our country. Much educational research has been done on the reason high school students are dropping out"(Bridgeland, DiIlulio, & Burke Morison, 2006). Reasons cited for dropping out include that school lacks relevance to a student’s life and real world challenges, that no one takes a personal interest in the student and that it is too hard to attend school and deal with issues of life outside of school. Further, student engagement research has illuminated what is needed to keep students engaged in school (Sharan, S. & Tan, I.G.C. 2008). Student engagement as defined by Sharan and Tan goes beyond “motivation to learn” it must take into account “student interest, attachment to school achievement motivation, self-regulated learning, commitment to learning, and/or the investment of energy in learning in general” (p. 41). Further supporting this definition studies have shown that students who were placed at risk by circumstance became engaged in school through collaborative group project-based learning where the teacher was actively engaged with the students and the students felt a personal connection to their teacher (Kuh, 2007; Means & Knapp, 1991).
Universal Design for Learning offers foundational tenets for truly egalitarian education where no one is marginalized by being labeled as having “special needs or exceptional needs” rather, UDL widens the circle so that every learner is considered unique and has a full compliment of accommodations offered to them to support a holistic educational experience. Accommodations become invisible, embedded in the classroom and integrated into the way we teach and learn. In this same way the art studio classroom allows project based learning and portfolio assessment to be the norm. Students work collaboratively and the teacher becomes a facilitator or guide. Both models move away from lock step “one size fits all” curriculum and instruction mode to a classroom which allows the student to take control of their learning by integrating rich and varied tools that allow for multiple ways of showing knowledge. The studio and UDL embedded technology break down the barrier between teacher and student by making the teacher a facilitator and guide while the student takes active control of their learning. As posted of the Arts Ask for more website the benefits of arts education are listed:
-The arts make a tremendous impact on the developmental growth of every child and have been proven to help level the "learning field" across socio-economic boundaries
(Involvement in the Arts and Success in Secondary School, James S. Catterall, The UCLA Imagination Project, Graduate School of Education & Information Studies, UCLA, Americans for the Arts Monograph, January 1998).
Has a measurable impact on at-risk youth in deterring delinquent behavior and truancy problems while also increasing overall academic performance among those youth engaged in after school and summer arts programs targeted toward delinquency prevention (YouthARTS Development Project, 1996, U.S. Department of Justice, National Endowment for the Arts, and Americans for the Arts).
The National Universal Design for Learning Task Force states the benefits of UDL:
*UDL improves educational outcomes for ALL students by ensuring meaningful access to the curriculum and accurate skill and knowledge assessment. In addition UDL complements existing school reform initiatives.
*Provide multiple and flexible methods of presentation to give students with diverse learning styles various ways of acquiring information and knowledge.
*Provide multiple and flexible means of expression to provide diverse students with alternatives for demonstrating what they have learned, and
*Provide multiple and flexible means of engagement to tap into diverse learners' interests, challenge them appropriately, and motivate them to learn (CAST, hosted by The Advocacy Institute, 2009.
Ultimately UDL and the arts together offer a way of pursuing social justice in our classrooms by opening up possibilities for providing teaching, learning and assessment in multi-modalities. The environment created by an art studio that embraces UDL to teach all disciplines would offer every student access to the general curriculum and fair assessment methods. It further would offer pro-social benefits of peer instruction and opportunities for students with disabilities and students who have been marginalized because they cannot attend school because of a disability or circumstances to participate fully through technology. It is up to the teachers to move the current discourse in education away from top down mandates of high stakes testing that marginalize some students towards systemic change which is student-centric addressing the learning styles and needs of all students. UDL and the way students learn in the art studio may hold the key to a level educational playing field!
So I ask you as educators to ponder the following questions:
In the current educational climate in the United States, which focuses on high stake testing, what are your thoughts on UDL and the art studio?
Do you think there is a possible bond between the arts and UDL?
What is the role of the educator, student, school administrators, legislators in embracing such systemic change as adopting UDL and arts based practice as the norm?
What challenges do we face in an attempt at such change?
Do you have a story to share about UDL and arts based practice in your school that would add to the discussion.
I look forward to hearing your thoughts on UDL and the arts.

Paris (ESA) Mar 12, 2015
Air was pumped out of the International Space Station's air lock for the first time in the name of science last week. Inside the cylindrical Quest airlock, ESA astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti and NASA's Terry Virts monitored their breathing for researchers back on Earth.
With each lungful of air, our bodies absorb oxygen and exhale waste-product molecules such as carbon dioxide and the important 'signalling' molecule nitric oxide. The Airway Monitoring experiment looks at the amount of nitric oxide the astronauts expelled by the astronauts in the airlock.
Nitric oxide is a gas found in cigarette smoke and car exhaust, for example, and it is produced in our bodies to regulate blood vessels and act as an antibacterial agent.
Doctors measure the amount of nitric oxide exhaled by patients to help diagnose inflamed lungs and asthma.
Airway monitoring for space and Earth
In addition, dust on the Moon and probably Mars sticks to astronauts through static electricity and has sharp edges - all making it more likely that dust will enter astronauts' lungs and do harm.
The Airway Monitoring experiment will test the use of nitric oxide as a tool to monitor lung inflammation as well as charting lung health in astronauts.
Four sessions will see the pair exhale into the equipment. Samantha and Terry made their first contributions before flight at NASA and ran their first space session in space in January.
On Friday, they entered the Station's Quest airlock for their last run and reduced the pressure by 30% - equivalent to being on a mountain at 3000 m altitude.
They are the first of eight astronauts to collect data on their lungs for this experiment. It is also the first time that Quest is used for scientific purposes - the module was installed to allow astronauts to venture outside on spacewalks.
A complete view of lung health
Lars Karlsson, lead investigator for this experiment from the Karolinska Institutet of Sweden, is hopeful that the experiment in the airlock will open up new fields of research in reduced pressure in space: "In the future, it is quite likely that drugs could be designed based on exhaled nitric oxide measurements, to find the most effective molecules to treat inflamed airways and lungs. This type of research is a first step down this road."

Synopses & ReviewsPlease note that used books may not include additional media (study guides, CDs, DVDs, solutions manuals, etc.) as described in the publisher comments.
Guidelines for Closing the Black-White Cultural Gap
"Reading this book is like talking with a trusted friend about serious and sensitive issues.Dr. Thompson has provided a real service for teachers and everyone else who cares about the success of African American students."
Diane F. Halpern, director, Berger Institute for Work, Family, and Children andprofessor of psychology, Claremont McKenna College
"For those teachers, administrators, and researchers who deal with culturally sensitive issues, Through Ebony Eyes is a powerful tool. Gail Thompson writes with passion and authority on teachers' beliefs and attitudes regarding African American students, and how these affect their instructional practices and achievement. Her research and observations are insightful, and her recommendations essential."
James P. Comer, M.D., Maurice Falk Professor of Child Psychiatry, Yale Child Study Center, associate dean, School of Medicine
"Thompson does not tiptoe around issues that are sensitive for most educators, such as the controversy over Ebonics versus Standard English, and the continued controversy surrounding the use of the 'N word' by African-American students . . . . For those teachers, researchers, and administrators who want to deal with culturally sensitive issues, this is a very important tool."
"By effectively melding theory and practice, this book offers professionals and parents a guide toward understanding African American cultures and background. Thompson is an effective cultural translator; her research and knowledge base rely on a triangulation of effective theory, proven practices, and common sense. Highly recommended."
Taking on the volatile topic of the role of race in education, this work explores the black-white achievement gap and the cultural divide that exists between some teachers and African American students. It provides information and strategies that will help teachers increase their effectiveness with African-American students.
In this book, Gail L. Thompson takes on the volatile topic of the role of race in education and explores the black-white achievement gap and the cultural divide that exists between some teachers and African American students.

As technology continues to improve, IMU motion sensors are likely to become even more important in surveying, making it possible to gather more accurate and detailed data than ever before.
IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) motion sensors are increasingly crucial in surveying. These sensors can measure the movement, rotation, and acceleration of a device, and they are used in various applications, including land surveying, construction, and mapping.
Advantages of IMUs
One of the key advantages of IMUs is their ability to provide accurate and reliable data even without a clear line of sight to a GPS receiver. This makes them ideal for use in remote or densely forested areas, where traditional surveying methods may not be feasible. Additionally, IMUs can provide data in real-time, allowing surveyors to adjust their measurements as needed.
IMUs in Land Surveying & Mapping
In land surveying, IMUs can create highly accurate 3D terrain models. This can be useful for various purposes, such as planning new construction projects, monitoring land use changes, or identifying potential hazards. For example, by measuring the movement of the land over time, engineers and geologists can detect possible landslides or subsidence, which can help to prevent accidents and protect the lives of people living in the affected areas.
IMUs are also used in the field of mapping. They can be used to create detailed 3D models of cities, buildings, and other structures. This can be useful for various purposes, such as city planning, traffic management, and emergency response.
IMUs in Construction
IMUs are also used in the construction industry, often integrated into robotic total stations or drones. These devices can quickly and accurately map out construction sites, measure the progress of construction, or inspect structures for damage. This can help to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and ensure the safety of workers.
IMUs are becoming an essential tool in the field of surveying, providing accurate and reliable data in a variety of different applications. Their ability to work in remote or densely forested areas and the construction and mapping industries make them valuable assets in the field. As technology continues to improve, IMU motion sensors are likely to become even more important in surveying, making it possible to gather more accurate and detailed data than ever before.

Civil War Anti-Slavery movement.
There are several events that strengthened the antislavery movement prior to the Civil War. These events include the establishment of an antislavery newspaper, the tension Elijah P. Lovejoy's death caused, the law passed in 1850 denying runaway slaves the right to a trial, Harriet Beecher Stowe's involvement in the movement, The Dread Scott Case, and finally the John Brown movement. Collectively, these events supported and established the antislavery movement prior to the Civil War.

Takeaway: Tow Tea: New Forms of Reader Engagement
As news organizations grapple with how to cultivate reader engagement through their online offerings, metrics are becoming a central subject of analysis and experimentation in many newsrooms. At our Tow tea on Nov. 20, about 20 people gathered at Columbia Journalism School to discuss new forms of reader engagement with Amanda Zamora, Senior Engagement Editor at ProPublica and Brian Abelson, Knight Mozilla Open News fellow at the New York Times.
Abelson discussed his research for the NYT, in which he analyzed on a month’s worth of articles in terms of how they were promoted and the traffic they received.
When judging the “success” of an article, he said, you have to evaluate how it is shared.
“Turns out being tweeted by the NYT account, being on the homepage guaranteed the success of articles,” he said.
Abelson explained that a lot of content that is meaningful doesn’t really have a news cycle, meaning that instead of limiting efforts to a single Tweet when it first publishes, you can continue to promote the story later on. “It doesn’t have to die in a day,” he said.
Zamora’s focus at ProPublica is less on quantitative measures, and more on audience engagement. For example, ProPublica has experimented with platforms like ReadrBoard, which allows users to post “reactions” in addition to comments.
“It’s easy to use,” Zamora said of ReadrBoard, noting that it allowed audiences to engage with ProPublica’s work with less effort than it would take to generate a thoughtful comment. Readrboard is also used by the Tow Center.
Zamora has also found that giving feedback to users is an important part of building engagement. If audience member offer tips or story suggestions, they need to know what becomes of their input. Her strategy is to build a core audience for a story through discussions in the comments section. Those readers who return to the site may then start to build a community around a particular investigation. “Returning visitors and shares for me are expressions of loyalty,” she said.
ProPublica is also experimenting with the Facebook app Cloudtangle and a new commenting system that allows users to post comments on ProPublica through their social accounts, in order to help keep track of the conversations around their stories that happen on other platforms. Zamora and Abelson agreed that a lack of metrics beyond their own site was holding back many news organizations’ ability to make the most of their content.
“Buzzfeed is successful not because of cat pictures, but because they track the usage of 200 news sites,” Abelson said. “There is no way the New York Times, or Propublica, or anyone can compete with that.”

Visit DC and DELMARVA
DC Region Sites to See
Since many visitors stop in my area every year, I decided to put this short flyer together highlighting some of our most famous local spots. There are so many things to see and do around here that it's impossible to hit everything in one visit. For my visiting friends, I usually can take you to all the best spots.
Washington D.C. is the nations capital. You can tour the Whitehouse, visit many great museums and monuments, stop at famous battlefields like Bull Run and Gettysburg, get a dose of culture or do just about everything else you are looking for in a vacation getaway. It's a good place to visit for surfers al well as an educational experience since DC is located close to great surfing locations like Assateague Island National Seashore, Ocean City, and Virginia Beach.
You can also visit places like Colonial Williamsburg, 173 acres and more than 500 restored and reconstructed buildings of this famous early settlement. There is also the restored first settlement of Jamestown nearby.
Assateague Island, famous for its wild horses, is a barrier island bordered on the east by the Atlantic Ocean and on the west by Sinepuxent Bay. The island features two miles of ocean beaches that offer swimming, beachcombing, sunbathing, surfing and fishing. Chincoteague Island farther south is a similar island featuring the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge, the perfect setting for photography buffs.
The most consistent break near DC is Ocean City. It's located on the eastern side of Maryland. It has 140 streets of white beautiful sandy beaches. Other than areas where the beach has been replenished, the best part about Ocean City is that each street has different surf break conditions. Where one street can be totally flat and the next street can feature nice little waves! That is the fun part about Ocean City, If you feel like a shore break then head down to 100th street. If you feel like getting tubed then hit the OC Inlet.
Another great surf break is the Indian River Inlet, particularly the north end called the Cove. It's home to great fishing and a wonderful stretch of beach which is part of the 2,018-acre Delaware Seashore State Park.
Below are some of the more famous sights in the DC region.
Some of the best are:
Jefferson - Lincoln - Washington - Iwo Jima - Vietnam - Grant - Korean War - Arlington National Cemetary - WWII

Q345R material is a special steel grade for pressure vessels with a yield strength of 340MPa. It has good comprehensive mechanical properties and technological performance. The phosphorus and sulfur contents are slightly lower than the low-alloy high-strength steel plate Q345 (16Mn) steel. In addition to the increased tensile strength and elongation requirements compared to Q345 (16Mn) steel, it also requires impact toughness. Q345R steel plate is currently the most widely used and most used steel plate for pressure vessels in China.


Tips For Finding The Right Low Pressure Cracking Check Valve
Valves of all types are designed to work based on pressure on either side of the valve. For a check valve, the pressure on the inlet port of the valve is higher, forcing the liquid through the valve in one direction through the outlet port.
Should the pressure in the system on the inlet side of the valve drop, the ball, disc, diaphragm or another component in the check valve is pushed against that side of the valve, completely blocking the inlet so the liquid cannot flow back through the system. This is called the reseal pressure. It is the force required to push the ball, disc or diaphragm to prevent any flow.
With that in mind, each check valve is designed with a specific cracking pressure. This is the pressure upstream of the valve that is required to get the ball, disc, diaphragm or another component to move forward to allow the flow to occur through the valve. In some areas, the cracking pressure may be known as unseating pressure.
The Low Pressure Cracking Check Valve
While systems often run with thousands of pounds per square inch of pressure, it may be essential to use a low pressure cracking check valve in the system. This allows the release of the liquid through the system as the pressure builds, not requiring a full level of pressure before the flow starts.
These low pressure cracking check valve designs will be rated for a specific pounds per square inch or PSI level. This is not the same as the pressure that is required to provide a full opening of the check valve. It is important to remember these are two different measurements.
It is possible to have a low pressure cracking check valve made of metals, including brass, as well as plastics. Both can be a good option depending on the specifics of the system requirements.

He admitted that he was ‘hurt and disappointed’ with himself and his ego and described the monk as ‘gentle and kind’. He was quoted stating in his letter: "It is that same ego that I hope to defeat, with your help. I apologise again, from the depths of my heart, and ask that Muni-ji and all my Jain brothers and sisters, forgive me.”
Music composer Vishal Dadlani, who landed in trouble for his tweet on Jain monk Tarun Sagar’s address to the Haryana assembly, was granted anticipatory bail in the case on Wednesday. He was granted anticipatory bail in the Vishal Dadlani vs. State of Haryana case, vide order passed by Ambala Sessions Court. The order came as a relief to the music composer courted controversy because of his vociferous criticism of the speech delivered by the Jain monk within the precincts of the Haryana Legislative Assembly, and made his disappointment public through various tweets on Twitter.
Following this, an FIR was lodged under sections 153A, 295A and 509 of IPC against him wherein the complainant, a resident of Ambala Cantt., held him responsible for causing utter disrespect, criticism and spread of religious discontent/enmity towards the Jain community and the monk.
The court held that there was nothing in the FIR to suggest that one group or community was intended to be pitted against the other, on the ground of religion, race, place of birth etc. so Section 153A of the Indian Penal Code could not be attracted. For section 295A of IPC ‘deliberate and malicious’ intent to cause hurt to religious sentiments was necessary.
However, it was clear from the tweets posted that the petitioner had only wanted to show his concern about mixing of religion with the politics and criticise the action of the state government in inviting Jain Muni to the Legislative Assembly. What also went in favour of the petitioner was that after realising that his tweets were being criticised and were not being understood as he wanted to intend, he issued numerous apologies making it clear that he did not want to upset the Jain feelings and that his intent was to ridicule the merger of religion and politics.
The opposite parties had also contended that the petitioner was trying to evade arrest and not coping with the investigation. Since his petition for quashing the FIR was dismissed at the Supreme Court, his anticipatory bail should be denied. The Sessions Court said the petitioner couldn’t be denied bail just based on the fact that petitioner had earlier filed petitions before the Supreme Court and the High Court because by filing these petitions, he was exercising his right. When it was suggested that the petitioner should be asked to join the investigation, if police wanted to interrogate him, the complainant and prosecutor strongly opposed it. The court drew an inference that the purpose of the complainant/state is to humiliate the petitioner and not to make progress in the investigation.

Finally, the court directed the petitioner to join the investigation and cooperate with the investigating agency. Petitioner Vishal Dadlani was also directed to present himself before the Investigating Officer at Police Station, Ambala Cantt, on Wednesday noon. During this period, he was given an interim bail to the satisfaction of the arresting officer. Advocates Karuna Nundy, Umrish Gandhi and Amardeep Singh Talwar appeared for Dadlani
After the order, the music composer went to meet the Jain monk at his ashram in Chandigarh to apologise and later said ‘Guruji’ had accepted his apology and that the two were ‘friends now’. He admitted that he was ‘hurt and disappointed’ with himself and his ego and described the monk as ‘gentle and kind’. He was quoted stating in his letter: "It is that same ego that I hope to defeat, with your help. I apologise again, from the depths of my heart, and ask that Muni-ji and all my Jain brothers and sisters, forgive me.”

Throughout organized team activities, several players enhanced their value in front of coaches and media members. While those positive moments were important, the bulk of the evaluation process has yet to take place.
Mandatory minicamp will feature even more tests in preparation for training camp. Following the three-day minicamp, the players will spend their off-time resting and preparing for the next stage of the team-building process.
The OTA workouts offered a glimpse at some of the Eagles’ tightest competitions. While there aren’t many starting roles up for grabs, the competitions for other key jobs will go a long way in determining the team’s overall depth.
Here are the three tightest competitions entering mandatory minicamp:
1. Starting Middle Linebacker
Outside of cornerback, middle linebacker may be the only starting job truly up for grabs. Since the cornerback competition hasn’t really started with Ronald Darby and Jalen Mills sidelined, the middle linebacker job has been the main source of intrigue in the starting lineup during the offseason program.
Nathan Gerry has been the starting middle linebacker with the first-team defense throughout the majority of OTAs. While L.J. Fort was brought in to compete for the job, he has mostly been practicing with the second-team defense. Zach Brown, a proven NFL starter, has also been working with the second unit. Gerry has an advantage due to his experience in the scheme.
2. Fourth Defensive End
Chris Long’s retirement has left a hole in the Eagles’ pass-rushing rotation. The fourth defensive end has played quite a bit in recent years and the Eagles have very little experience behind the top trio of Brandon Graham, Derek Barnett and Vinny Curry.
Josh Sweat, a former fourth-round pick, has been working with the second-team defense throughout OTAs. He seems like the favorite to win the job after a forgettable rookie season. Fourth-round rookie Shareef Miller, journeyman Daeshon Hall and practice squad holdover Joe Ostman are also competing for the job.
3. Fifth Wide Receiver
The Eagles’ top four wide receivers have clearly been established: Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson, Nelson Agholor and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside. Behind that group, the fifth spot is wide open.
With Mack Hollins still sidelined with a groin injury, veteran Charles Johnson has been taking reps with the first-team offense, as Jeffery has been skipping voluntary workouts. Johnson is competing with Hollins, Shelton Gibson, Braxton Miller and DeAndre Thompkins for a job.

The Inuit are just one of the many indigenous groups that comprise Canada’s First Peoples. From British Columbia’s Nisga’a to the Mi’kmaq in the Atlantic provinces, these rich and distinct cultures are most accessible through their art. First Nations art can be found at a number of fine galleries.
Find totem poles, masks, sculptures, prints and more from the Haida, Iroquois, Woodland and others native peoples at Bay of Spirits. Works from Inuit, Cree, Mi’kmaq and other artists are also available.
Established in 1966, Yorkville’s Beckett Fine Art displays a select group of First Nations works, particularly those from the estate of Arthur Shilling. The gallery also represents historic and contemporary artists from Canada, the United States, Britain and Japan.
Though Canadian historical and contemporary art is the main attraction at Kinsman Robinson Galleries, it also has a large selection of works by renowned Aboriginal artist Norval Morrisseau, like Grandson Parents.
Native art is well represented at Maslak McLeod Gallery, which specializes in classic and contemporary sculptures, paintings and fine art by the Woodland, Haida, Inuit, Maritime and Plains peoples. Its roster of artists includes Roy Thomas, Norval Morrisseau and Floyd Kuptana.

A 68-year-old man crossing a crowded Manhattan street was killed yesterday when he was struck by a tour bus whose driver was unaware that he had hit anyone, the police said.
The man, whose name was not released, was crossing Columbus Avenue at 86th Street about 6:30 p.m. when he was hit by a rear wheel of an Academy bus headed for the Port Authority Bus Terminal, said Sgt. Michael Wysokowski, a police spokesman.
The bus was turning onto Columbus Avenue from 86th Street at the time of the accident, Sergeant Wysokowski said.
The man was taken to St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center, where he died.
After the accident, the bus continued to the Port Authority terminal, where officers located the driver. The driver told the police that he did not know that he had hit anyone, Sergeant Wysokowski said.
The police said no charges had been filed against the driver, whom they did not identify.Continue reading the main story

In recent years, the United Arab Emirates has been implicated in a series of aggressive smear campaigns targeting individuals who criticize the country. These campaigns involve surveillance, defamation, and the spread of fake news to tarnish the reputations of critics. The victims include human rights activists, UN investigators, and lobbyists for rival countries such as Qatar. These campaigns shed light on the UAE’s efforts to protect its image and suppress dissent, revealing the vulnerabilities of international mechanisms in the face of external influence.
Investigating War Crimes in Yemen:
Kamel Jendoubi, a French-Tunisian human rights lawyer, finds himself at the center of an aggressive response after publishing a UN report on war crimes in Yemen. The report implicates all parties involved in the conflict, including the UAE and Saudi Arabia, in potential war crimes such as airstrikes on civilian targets. Following the report’s release, Jendoubi becomes the target of online publications accusing him of ties to extremists. These baseless allegations, systematically repeated, aim to discredit Jendoubi and undermine the credibility of the report.
The UAE, a wealthy nation with significant influence beyond its borders, has engaged in influence operations in Europe to shape public opinion about the country. Leaked documents reveal the UAE’s collaboration with Swiss intelligence firm Alp Services to launch campaigns targeting critics and spreading fake news. These operations not only targeted individuals sympathetic to the Muslim Brotherhood, but also aimed to improve the UAE’s human rights reputation through defamation and the manipulation of Western PR consultants.
The UAE intensified its efforts against the UN investigators in 2018, employing Alp Services to discredit the team’s leader, Kamel Jendoubi. Alp Services proposes creating negative articles about Jendoubi every two weeks, linking him to controversial figures and organizations. The UAE approves the plan, and a series of articles are published portraying Jendoubi as an opportunist and questioning his integrity. The smear campaign extends to other Arab members of the investigative team, such as Moroccan researcher Ahmed Himmiche, who faces a comprehensive intelligence operation to find damaging information.
Protecting the UAE’s Image:
The UAE’s Crown Prince, Mohammed bin Zayed (MbZ), strives to present himself as a progressive leader within the Arab world. However, his tolerance does not extend to critics. Political opponents, especially Islamists and activists supporting them, are repressed under his regime. Reports of torture and lack of freedom of expression highlight the UAE’s significant human rights challenges. The UAE is keen to avoid scrutiny of these darker aspects of its rule, fearing damage to its relations with the European Union, a vital trading partner.
Surveillance and Intimidation:
Safwa Aïssa, head of the NGO ICJHR, becomes a target of UAE surveillance after she raises awareness about human rights violations in the UAE at the United Nations. A confidential surveillance report prepared by Alp Services describes Aïssa’s movements, including her bus routes, visits, and package pickups. Such surveillance is aimed at intimidating and silencing critics, preventing them from shining a light on human rights abuses in the country.
When negative reports emerge about the UAE’s treatment of prisoners, the country employs prominent defamation lawyer Paul Tweed to handle the situation. Tweed, representing a doppelgänger of a detained individual, sends legal notices to platforms demanding the removal of content relating to the prisoner’s case. This manipulation seeks to create confusion and discredit reports about the UAE’s human rights abuses.
The UAE’s smear campaigns also target Qatar, which supports the Muslim Brotherhood—a group considered a threat to MbZ’s power. In 2017, the UAE, along with other Arab countries, imposed a blockade on Qatar, severing diplomatic ties and imposing travel restrictions. Lobbyists for Qatar become targets of influence campaigns, including French-Tunisian PR consultant Sihem Souid, who is followed and surveilled by a private detective. The goal is to undermine Qatar’s positive image and promote negative narratives.
The UAE’s aggressive smear campaigns against critics, including UN investigators, activists, and rival countries, highlight the lengths to which the country will go to protect its image and suppress dissent. By employing surveillance, defamation, and the spread of fake news, the UAE aims to discredit and silence those who challenge its human rights record. These campaigns reveal the vulnerabilities of international mechanisms in the face of external influence, raising concerns about the credibility and integrity of global institutions.
