CSEAS-KASEAS Joint Conference 2023
Engaging Southeast Asian Studies in an Age of Uncertainties
On 26-27 May 2023, the Korean Association of Southeast Asian Studies (KASEAS) and the Center for Southeast Asian Studies (CSEAS), Kyoto University, jointly organized the conference “Engaging Southeast Asian Studies in an Age of Uncertainties.” The conference, which has been held alternately in Korea and Kyoto since 2008, aims to exchange the progress or new observations in Southeast Asia by scholars from the two countries. It was conducted online during the Covid-19 pandemic, but they resumed the in-person format after a while. Eight participants from several Korean universities and research institutions and seventeen from CSEAS and ASAFAS participated as presenters and commentators. During the two-day meeting, through keynote speeches, panel discussions and presentations, opinions were exchanged on a variety of topics related to Southeast Asian studies, bearing in mind the various uncertainties of recent years, such as pandemics, war, and the fluidity of economic and human mobility.
The full program can be accessed via this link: https://kyoto.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp/en/event/20230526/
In the keynote speech, Prof. Je Seong Jeon of Jeonbuk National University gave a presentation on “The Asian Solidarity Movement of Korean Civil Society: Observations of 30 years of Development.” It was impressive that he emphasized that the solidarity movement with Asia, which initially emerged as an extension of the awareness of the problems of Korean society, has since the 1990s transformed into a solidarity movement with universal values as a common denominator, such as solidarity with the independence movement in East Timor and the democracy and human rights movement in Myanmar. He suggested that it is not a recent phenomenon that Southeast Asian studies and solidarity movements in various countries develop and transform in relation to various uncertainties and crises.
In the conference, various issues were discussed, including the recession of democracy and the resurgence of authoritarian tendencies, large-scale economic transformations such as the One Belt One Road program and urbanization. The new intra-linkages of these issues and their ramifications were also addressed, such as the change of geopolitical balances, environmental changes and disasters, issues of economic inequality and the security of autonomy, human mobility, infectious diseases, and the way in which area studies interacts with social networking services and fake news. Despite the various risks identified, however, some participants elaborated on Southeast Asian people who overcome difficulties with creativity and resilience, such as the people of Mindanao who create discourses of romance that transcend longstanding religious conflicts, and Malaysian Muslims who cross the border to achieve marriage, which faces various domestic barriers.
The state and the directions of Southeast Asian studies
Regarding the state of post-colonial Southeast Asian studies, while the importance of fieldwork was still recognized, common directions and new problems were noted, such as how to utilize the rapid development of communication technology, information processing technology and AI in research, and how to deal with the negative effects of information overload and the flood of fake news. For example, it was pointed out that new methodologies for understanding the region are becoming possible, such as new quantitative analysis through the use of macro information processing and the identification of the chronology of historical documents through interdisciplinary and comparative use of databases and research results. On the other hand, there is an abundance of information with problems of authenticity and ethics, such as information generated by social networking services and AI, and it was discussed whether area studies can create a unique academic and intellectual discourse that transcends these problems.
Another panel that included presentations on Southeast Asian studies from Asia, discussed the importance of what used to be called the “internal” approach in linguistics and anthropology, and the need to address the question of how knowledge is produced in Southeast Asia and the wider Asian region; by whom, for whom and for what purpose. These papers also sought to offer new directions for Southeast Asian studies by conducting interdisciplinary, comparative and historical research that focused not only on the contextual thinking of Southeast Asian peoples, but also on the interrelationships between animals, the environment and various institutions.

Most biological nitrogen fixation is catalyzed by molybdenum-dependent nitrogenase, an enzyme complex comprising two component proteins that contains three different metalloclusters. Diazotrophs contain a common core of nitrogen fixation nif genes that encode the structural subunits of the enzyme and components required to synthesize the metalloclusters. However, the complement of nif genes required to enable diazotrophic growth varies significantly amongst nitrogen fixing bacteria and archaea. In this study, we identified a minimal nif gene cluster consisting of nine nif genes in the genome of Paenibacillus sp. WLY78, a gram-positive, facultative anaerobe isolated from the rhizosphere of bamboo. We demonstrate that the nif genes in this organism are organized as an operon comprising nifB, nifH, nifD, nifK, nifE, nifN, nifX, hesA and nifV and that the nif cluster is under the control of a σ[superscript 70] (σ[superscript A])-dependent promoter located upstream of nifB. To investigate genetic requirements for diazotrophy, we transferred the Paenibacillus nif cluster to Escherichia coli. The minimal nif gene cluster enables synthesis of catalytically active nitrogenase in this host, when expressed either from the native nifB promoter or from the T7 promoter. Deletion analysis indicates that in addition to the core nif genes, hesA plays an important role in nitrogen fixation and is responsive to the availability of molybdenum. Whereas nif transcription in Paenibacillus is regulated in response to nitrogen availability and by the external oxygen concentration, transcription from the nifB promoter is constitutive in E. coli, indicating that negative regulation of nif transcription is bypassed in the heterologous host. This study demonstrates the potential for engineering nitrogen fixation in a non-nitrogen fixing organism with a minimum set of nine nif genes.

Pick your poison-Benzene
Our next stop on our pick your poison tour is Benzene
Although small amounts are created as a chemical reaction in the fermentation and distillation processes of many wines and liquors, it is a nasty chemical in any amount for your body to process. Benzene is rapidly metabolized in the human body and is exposed to your vital organs quickly.
Benzene increases the risk of cancer and other illnesses. It is a wide know cause of bone marrow failure. Many clinical, and laboratory data link benzene to aplastic anemia, acute leukemia, and bone marrow abnormalities.
The American Petroleum Institute (API) had stated "it is generally considered that the only absolutely safe concentration for benzene is zero and The US Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) classifies benzene as a human carcinogen.
Benzene targets liver, kidney, lung, heart and the brain and can cause DNA strand breaks, chromosomal damage, etc. Benzene causes cancer in animals including humans. Benzene has been shown to cause cancer in both sexes of multiple species of laboratory animals exposed via various exposures from inhalation to consumption.
Benzene was historically used as a significant component in many consumer products such as Liquid Wrench, several paint strippers, rubber cements, spot removers and other hydrocarbon-containing products.
Help protect your organs by using a BooZi! Third party independent testing found that the use of a BooZi removed Benzene from all spirits tested as well as other toxins and congers found present.

As the Tata group company increases its focus on green energy, Tata Power intends to invest Rs 55,000 crore in wind and solar power generation in Tamil Nadu over the course of the next five to seven years.
Speaking to Business Today on the fringes of the Global Investors Meet 2024 on Sunday, the company’s MD and CEO, Praveer Sinha, stated, “We are looking at investing Rs 70,000 crore for 10 GW of power across wind and solar over a period of 5-7 years.” He added that the amount comprises investments of Rs 15,000 crore that have been made for operational and ongoing projects in Tamil Nadu’s central and southern regions.
Thus, the net new investments, which total almost Rs 55,000 crore, will be formally disclosed on Monday, the second day of the summit.
The company aims to produce 70% clean and green energy by 2030 and 100% by 2040. The share of green energy is now less than 40%.
Because of the southern state’s strong winds and abundance of sunlight, Sinha continued, they are committed to investing in renewable power generation there. He indicated that the energy mix between solar and wind would be 50-50, or 5GW each.
According to him, Tamil Nadu will be among the states where Tata Power can generate the most electricity.
“Here, we also find talented people. We are hiring residents of the 50–100 km radius around the new manufacturing plant we are establishing in Tamil Nadu. Eighty percent of the two thousand operators will be female. In reference to their planned greenfield 4.3 GW solar cell and module manufacturing factory in Tirunelveli, he added, “We have already onboarded nearly 1000 women.”
In Bengaluru, the business has a 500 MW solar cell and module production facility.
With 5,000 public chargers and over 70,000 private chargers spread across the nation, Tata Power is also the largest supplier of EV charging infrastructure in India. “Over the next five years, we plan to add 25,000 EV chargers, mainly home chargers,” he stated.

RESIDENTS broadly welcomed ideas for a new development of "upside-down" houses in Salford but some believed local people would not be able to afford them.
Urban Splash chairman Tom Bloxham presented his design for 400 terraced houses, with bedrooms on the ground floor and living rooms on the first floor, in Langworthy and Seedley to a meeting of residents last night.
He outlined how government money would mean he could sell the homes at a lower price than the cost of rebuilding them.
The scheme would include enclosed private communal gardens and retractable bollards at the end of the street to provide secure on-street parking for residents only.
Many residents felt they would not be able to afford the é30,000 to é50,000 price. Some believed that an Urban Splash development in the centre of Salford it would help bring in more investors and ensure all house prices went up.
Resident Deborah Bolton, of Alder Street, said: "Rather than it being a derelict area I think the new scheme is good but I think they have told us about it late in the day. I think they are going to end up more expensive than the é30,000 they are saying it will be. We can't afford that anyway."
Deborah Hill, of Reservoir Road, said: "This scheme will be sold to people out of the area but the other houses in the area might go up in value as well."
Coun Andy Salmon, the vicar of St Ambrose Church in Liverpool Street where the meeting was held, said: "This will attract the type of people who might like to live in Salford Quays or the city centre but can't afford to. It is an exciting choice for local people as well as bringing in new people."
At the end of the meeting the Seedley and Langworthy Partnership Board - representing police, councillors, residents and others - voted to support the scheme.
Mr Bloxham said: "It was a positive response to the scheme. There is always a tension between making real, high quality homes and getting them affordable.
"We are lucky to attract, or hope to attract, some central government funding, so we can sell them for less than they are costing us to build. We are hoping to give priority to key workers and existing residents.
"We need to change the way people think about Salford, I hope it will become an area that people want to move back into."


Get ready to have your blood boil, because a screen shot of a text message between a mom-to-be and a birth photographer is going viral as it's infuriating moms (and fellow birth photographers) across the Internet.
via: FacebookTo clarify, a birth photographer refuses to take on a client who will be having a c-section. Why? She insists it’s “not childbirth."
Not much is known about either person involved in this exchange, but people on Facebook had a LOT to say about it.
This isn't the first viral shaming of a C-section, and sadly, probably won't be the last. But the moral of the story is all moms are badass — no matter how they go about it.

Council Approves Free Bus Rides for Waco ISD Students Through 2021
The city of Waco will continue to provide free rides for Waco ISD students this fall.
KWTX reports Free bus rides will once again be offered to students of Waco ISD who present a valid student ID when boarding.
Waco ISD will pay the city $45,000 to cover the cost of around 20,000 trips to school. Waco Transit conducted a pilot program in 2013-2014 which kept track of the number of students riding city buses to school. That year the number of rides totaled 18,786
Students can take advantage of the free rides from August 24, 2018, to August 31, 2021. The renewal of the free rides was passed unanimously by council members on Tuesday.

There are some marketing triggers which can sell your products more and make people purchase your products and services. Customers are more excited to buy products because of their emotions trigger. It should be cleared in your mind that people buy what they want not what they need. Needs are determined by reasoning and wants by emotions. Everyone has the similar mental triggers and needs that force to take action.
Customers’ decision consists of various conscious and unconscious emotions. Deep understanding of human psychology and behavior is a key to the success of your business. If marketers recognize these emotional triggers, they can create more effective marketing campaigns, messages and tag line for maximizing their sales.
Psychological and emotional triggers are given below to increase your sales. These are:
Belongingness is a strong human desire to attach with someone or thing, like, a group, a gang, a clan, a family and social network. Mostly people buy products or services to show the sense of belonging. Social skills, intellectual level, mental health, motivation and many other areas can be improved with sense of belonging. Customers get attached with products and feel happy to belong with them.
Love and affection is the most powerful emotion. People usually do odd things in love and show their love with attractive and classy gifts. Their love for arts, hobbies, culture, pets or anything that they like most can motivate them to spend huge amount of money to attain, nourish & enjoy their love.
Marketing messages which make consumers to feel guilty can be useful and repulsive. Charities and donations campaigns use this approach in their ads and messages so frequently that customers feel guilt over the cup of glass, beer, coffee or even their evening meals.
Fear is a most powerful drive and we learned to fear risk, embarrassment or missed opportunities. Do not use fear marketing in your messages and advertising content. With customer’s perspective, when they buy products with this emotion they can take wrong buying decisions.
If you are planning for a long term game, trust should be your first priority. Customers show their buying loyalty to those products that have won their trust. Once you win their trust they will buy your products repeatedly.
Values bind together personal perception, judgment, actions and motives. Values can also be a criterion that helps us to make personal verdict. We can consider it as personal values. People make buying decisions on daily basis which are based on their personal values and judgments. These judgments are sometimes conscious and sometimes not.
These emotional triggers are very important to drive sales. The sales triggers are connected with the emotional points. If you are using these emotions well in your marketing campaigns it will maximize your sales and you would become the trustworthy brand for your consumers.

MSI GeForce GTX 650 Ti OC Boost Twin Frozr full review
Only last month we were sounding a lament for the graphics cards market of 2013, suggesting that the heavyweight Titan might be the last significant graphics card release for some time. From a purely technological point of view, that might be true, but the continued pursuit of more frames per second for your pound has driven both AMD and nVidia to unleash new products in the same month.
See: more graphics cards reviews.
In truth, only the AMD is really new, but though the nVidia GeForce 650 Ti Boost might be more of a new tilt at older technology, the results are compelling for mid-range consumers.
Both products come in close to the £150 mark, so we're not talking bargain-basement products here. But neither are we covering cards that can only really appeal to those with gargantuan bank accounts or a serious gaming addiction to feed.
Working with the tried-and-tested GK106 chip, the Boost builds on the standard GTX 650 Ti. That card, reviewed previously in a PNY version, had significantly inferior specifications to the 650 Ti.
Not only has the 928MHz core-clock speed of the standard 650 Ti been pushed up to 1033MHz (versions of the card with factory specifications go up to 980MHz), but nVidia has enabled the Boost feature, so it can turn on the throttle and speed up to a maximum of 1098MHz - a sizeable 170MHz increase on the standard 650 Ti.
The memory clock speed has been raised noticeably too, with the 1350MHz of the PNY's 650 Ti being increased to 1502MHz in the 650 Ti Boost.
Add in the quadrupling capabilities of the GDDR5 RAM (of which a capacious 2GB is offered), and that means that the effective memory clock of 6008MHz is a very great improvement on the 5400MHz of the standard 650 Ti.
The original 650 Ti was itself partly a cut-down version of the 660, with the stream processors and texture units cut to 768 and 64 respectively. The Boost retains these specifications.
However, it raises the number of raster operation units from 16 to 24. And, more crucially, it improves on the memory interface. The 650 Ti's 128-bit version was rather limited, and constantly kept a lid on the performance of the GK106. The Boost, though, pushes this up to a 192-bit version.
Combine this with the extra clock speeds of the Boost, and you now have a rather powerful little piece of silicon.
The memory bandwidth (often an interesting indicator of real-world performance) comes in at massive 144.2GBps, as opposed to the 86.4GBps of the standard 650 Ti. That's a massive difference, and much of it is down to the increased memory interface.
The Boost also improves on the 650 Ti's texture fill rate, using that boost feature to push the figure from 59.4GTps to 70.3GTps.
MSI GeForce GTX 650 Ti OC Boost Twin Frozr: Perfromance
The MSI GeForce GTX 650 Ti OC Boost Twin Frozr does come with quite a high TDP of 134 watt - a good 49 watt up on the 7790. This is also a significant jump on the 110 watt of the standard 650 Ti.
In practice, we found the difference between the 650 Ti and 650 Ti Boost to be about 18 watt. Not quite as high as the figures on paper, but still reasonably power hungry.
Helped by MSI's customised dual-fan design, the card is fairly quiet, and remained relatively cool throughout testing.
The MSI GeForce GTX 650 Ti OC Boost Twin Frozr makes full use of that 192-bit memory interface, and this addition seems to give the card perfect balance that permits it to push frame rates to their max for this price point.
In Crysis 2 it produces figures of 30.5 and 21.1fps at the highest resolutions (1900 x 1200 and 2560 x 1600).
These are comfortably superior to the Radeon 7790's figures of 26.6 and 18.9fps, but even the immensely powerful 7870 can only offer figures of 33.7 and 22.6fps respectively.
As the tests get easier, the 650 Ti Boost extends its advantage, pushing to 65.9 and 41.3fps in Stalker: Call of Pripyat, and opening up double-figure leads over the 7790.
It's also a good margin ahead in Battleforge, offering figures of 59.8 and 36.1fps against the 7790's inferior scores of 51.5 and 28.0fps.

Prescribed drugs suppose to help individuals manage their health conditions, but in some cases, they can lead to wrongful deaths, particularly in nursing homes. Nursing homes provide care to vulnerable populations, including elderly and disabled individuals who require around-the-clock medical attention. Unfortunately, nursing home residents are also at risk of having their medications given incorrectly. This can lead to wrongful death. In this blog, we will explore wrongful death claims resulting from prescribed drugs in nursing homes.
Understanding Wrongful Death From Prescribed Drugs
Wrongful death is described as a death caused by the carelessness of another person or thing. Wrongful death claims may be filed when nursing home patients are over or wrongly administered drugs, resulting in their death.
Overmedication and Improper Medication in Nursing Homes are Grounds for Liability
Nursing homes are responsible for making sure that residents receive the proper care, including the medication and medical attention they require. However, residents might experience serious injury, including wrongful death, when nursing homes don’t offer adequate care.
Overmedicating occurs when professionals give a resident more prescription medication than is necessary or safe. Numerous factors, such as insufficient personnel levels, ineffective medicine administration, or a lack of medical oversight, may contribute to this. Overmedication may be done on purpose on occasion, such as when a resident’s demeanor is under control with medication.
Improper medication occurs when staff gave a resident the wrong medication or dosage. This can result from a lack of communication between medical professionals, inadequate training of staff, or errors in medication administration.
Establishing Liability in a Wrongful Death Claim From Prescribed Drugs
To establish liability in a wrongful death claim resulting from overmedication or improper medication in a nursing home, plaintiffs must prove that the nursing home was negligent. As well as, that their negligence caused the resident’s death. This may involve demonstrating that the nursing home failed to provide appropriate medical care. Also, staff members may have inadequately been training in medication administration.
Additionally, plaintiffs may need to prove that the nursing home knew about the unsafe conditions and didn’t take appropriate action. For example, if a resident had previously had adverse reactions to medication but was still taking it, this could be evidence of negligence on the nursing home’s part.
Damages in a Wrongful Death Claim
In a wrongful death claim resulting from overmedication or improper medication in a nursing home, damages may include funeral expenses, medical bills, and loss of income. Additionally, surviving family members may get compensation for their emotional suffering, loss of companionship, and other non-economic damages.
The number of damages awarded in a wrongful death claim can vary widely depending on the specific circumstances of the case. For example, if the nursing home’s negligence was particularly egregious, the damages may be higher. Similarly, if the resident who died was a primary breadwinner for the family, the damages may be greater.
Preventing Wrongful Death in Nursing Homes
Preventing wrongful death in nursing homes requires nursing homes to take responsibility for ensuring that their residents receive appropriate medical care. Including appropriate medication administration. This includes ensuring that staff employees have correct pharmaceutical administration training and that drug administration is constantly under monitor. Also, medical professionals are available to address any adverse reactions or complications.
Additionally, families can take steps to protect their loved ones from overmedication and improper medication in nursing homes. This includes staying informed about their loved one’s medical care. As well as, monitoring medication administration, and reporting any concerns to nursing home staff or medical professionals promptly.
Contact Attorney Today
Wrongful death resulting from prescribed drugs in nursing homes is a tragic and preventable outcome. Nursing homes have a legal obligation to provide appropriate medical care to their residents, and when they fail to do so, they may be liable for the resulting harm. Establishing liability in a wrongful death claim requires proof.

Study visit to Vienna, 7-9 November 2022
Between the 7th and 9th of November 2022, under the scope of the KOMPLEKS project, ICMPD organized a study visit for representatives of Polish local authorities and project partners to Austria.
The objective of the study visit was to take a closer look at the system of identification and support for vulnerable migrants in Austria, including unaccompanied minors, LGBTIQ asylum seekers, single parents with minor children, people with disabilities, and victims of THB. Discussions also revolved around the situation of persons displaced from Ukraine in Austria – a group of vulnerable applicants consisting largely of women with children, facing risks of family separation and access to the labour market. Experts at ICMPD headquarters presented an overview of the asylum procedure in Austria, and participants had the opportunity to meet with key federal, municipal and non-governmental stakeholders such as representatives from the Federal Agency for Reception and Support Services, Fond Soziales Wien, Integrationshaus and Queerbase. Discussions included approaches and challenges in the Austrian reception system, customising reception conditions to special needs (such as alternative accommodations adapted to vulnerabilities), and good practices in the identification of and support for vulnerable migrants in Austria with a particular focus on the needs of people requiring special care, such as those who have undergone trauma, single parents, and both accompanied and unaccompanied minors. Among the good practices identified was also extensive cooperation between federal institutions and a number of specialized non-governmental organizations, particularly with regard to identifying vulnerable migrants.

TITLE: Morgen Song
SERIES: Deep Magic – Book 3
AUTHOR: Gillian St. Kevern
LENGTH: 257 pages
RELEASE DATE: December 29, 2016
Does an underwater king have a future on land?
A wave of near drownings along the Welsh coast can only mean one thing: the morgenau, Welsh sirens, have returned to the Llŷn Peninsula. Myrhydion seizes the chance to prove himself as future king. Instead, he falls under the spell of a cunning underwater sorcerer. Myrhydion fights to free himself, while keeping up the fiction of his human identity. As he loses more and more of his power to the sorceror, Myrhydion risks more than the crown. He could lose the life he’s created on land with Olly.
As Myrhydion and Olly struggle to protect the people of the Llŷn, Myrhydion faces an impossible choice. Surrender the magical powers that are his only defense against the machinations of the former king, his evil grandfather, or risk the lives of everyone he cares about. Rapidly running out of magic, options and friends, Myrhydion knows that only a king can win this battle–and Myrhydion is prince of nothing.
Morgen Song rejoins the cast of Deep Magic eight months after the events of the first novel. Welsh folklore meets modern sensibilities as Olly and Myrhydion fight for their happily-ever-after, facing foes that range from an ancient and bitter king to mothers-in-law and AirBNB guests–as well as some new foes familiar to readers of Morgen Curse. Morgen Song is a modern fantasy perfect for readers of gay romance who like their happy endings with a touch of mythology! It blends elements of Welsh mythology and folklore with the Gothic atmosphere of North Wales for a unique spin on the mermen genre of paranormal romance.
I was afraid when I began this one that it might have been too long since I read the first two books in the series. I remembered that the two books were only tangentially connected. They were both about the Welsh myths of the Morgen of the Llŷn Peninsula, but they didn’t really come together as one story, instead being two vastly different tales. I also remembered a lot of Welsh words that I stumbled over reading.
Well, the Welsh words are still there. But again, as in the other books, there is almost always an English translation or reference so that you get what is being discussed. I’m happy to say that the two preceding storylines come together in this installment. We have the characters from both books showing up, and the blurb says it is about eight months after the events in the first novel. Truthfully, it read like a continuing story, and I fell right back into the storyline very easily.
Myrhydion, or Rhys as he is known to the humans of the small town he lives in, is now living with Olly, who we met in the first book, and they are battling some sort of unknown magic that has stolen Myrhydion’s powers. The theft has something to do with the deposed King of the Morgen, Myrhydion’s grandfather. The bad guys are the good guys from book two, so it confused me for a time, but all was revealed as the story proceeded.
I liked this one. I liked the locale and the characters. I would be remiss though if I didn’t caution that it should not be read as a standalone. You must read the first two books, in my opinion, before you read this one, and then the story in this one will flow smoothly.
There is obviously more to come in this continuing tale. We still haven’t resolved the search for a missing man we met in book two, and I’m really looking forward to seeing what happens next. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a tale based on mythological beings. Or are they? Ms. St. Kevern makes you feel they might be there, just under the water…

Almost everyone who has been in a relationship has experienced a breakup. Some are amicable, but many are acrimonious, or just plain awkward and uncomfortable. Wouldn’t it be great if we could avoid all the hassle of ending a relationship? If we could cut a partner out of our lives quickly, decisively, and with the least possible effort?
If that idea sounds appealing, you may be prone to “ghosting." It’s a relatively new term for what is likely an age-old solution to a relationship that is going nowhere. To “ghost” someone is to cut them out of your life entirely and ignore all their attempts at contact — to vanish into the ether like a phantom, leaving the ex to work it out for themselves that they’ve been dumped.
This type of behavior may be tempting in that it demands the least possible effort — who doesn’t approve of efficiency? — it also seems rather heartless. Technology may be adding to the problem: After all, it’s easier to block a person you met on a dating app than to avoid a former office crush.
So why are some people more likely to ghost than others? How can we choose a partner who, if love fails to bloom, will let us down gently, rather than disappearing into the night?
Gili Freedman, a postdoc at Dartmouth College, recently ran two studies to find out. She wondered whether a willingness to ghost might be explained by the lay-theories we all hold about how relationships work. Some of us believe in destiny — that there is one soul mate we are meant to be with. Others believe more in growth — that people change over time and that a relationship that has lost its way can be successfully prevented from hitting the rocks. Maybe believers in destiny or growth feel differently about ghosting.
Freedman had over 500 men and women complete questionnaires about their destiny and growth beliefs, and their attitudes toward ghosting. When is ghosting permissible, only after a few dates or even when the relationship has become long-term? Had the respondents ever ghosted or been ghosted? Would they think less of someone who ghosted? And, finally, how likely would they be to use ghosting to end a short- or long-term relationship?
Around a quarter of the volunteers reported having been ghosted in the past; around a fifth said that they had ghosted someone else. What’s more, volunteers with strong beliefs in destiny were more likely to think it was OK to end a relationship by ghosting, compared to those with a weaker belief in destiny — 22 percent more likely in the case of a short-term relationship; 63 percent more likely in the case of a long-term relationship. Growth beliefs weren’t related to feelings about the acceptability of ghosting a short-term partner, but believers in growth were 38 percent more likely than non-believers to think it acceptable to ghost a long-term partner.
Stronger believers in destiny were 24 percent less likely to think poorly of a ghoster, and 43 percent more likely to consider ghosting; stronger believers in growth were 35 percent more likely to think poorly of a ghoster, but were no more or less willing to ghost someone themselves.
Freedman argues that her results are "...consistent with the possibility that destiny theorists [people who believe that the ideal relationship partner is our 'soul mate'] are more likely to act decisively on their relationship once deciding it is not 'meant to be.'”
In other words, if you think you are destined to find “the one” but decide that your current partner doesn’t fit the bill, ending the relationship abruptly may feel appropriate: Why attempt to work at the relationship when you are not destined to be together, and don’t believe that relationships can evolve and change over time?
Earlier research has also shown that believers in destiny are less likely to remain friends with an ex. An unwillingness to maintain any kind of relationship with a former partner may mean that destiny theorists aren’t concerned about harming or confusing an ex they will probably never see again.
Perhaps it’s time for the belief in soul mates to give up the ghost.

Question about Garmin GPS Devices
Most GPS would have a cigarette lighter adapter to charge the unit while in the car. If you vehicle has onle 1, then it would be needed to pullout the cigarette lighter and use that for the charger. If your unit does not have a cigarette lighter adapter/charger, then pls post back the brand/model.
Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.
Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

Bevacizumab and Cetuximab With or Without Irinotecan in Treating Patients With Irinotecan-Refractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
Basic Trial Information
|Phase II||Biomarker/Laboratory analysis, Treatment||Completed||18 and over||NCI||NCI-2012-01445|
MSKCC-03135, NCI-6444, CDR0000350086, 03-135, 6444, N01CM17105, N01CM17101, N01CM17103, N01CM17102, NCT00077298
This randomized phase II trial is studying giving bevacizumab and cetuximab together with irinotecan to see how well it works compared to giving bevacizumab and cetuximab alone in treating patients with irinotecan-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer. Monoclonal antibodies such as cetuximab and bevacizumab can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or deliver tumor -killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as irinotecan, also work in different ways to kill tumor cells or stop them from growing. Giving cetuximab and bevacizumab together with irinotecan may improve the ability to block tumor growth.
Further Study Information
I. Evaluate time to tumor progression in patients with irinotecan-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer treated with bevacizumab and cetuximab with or without irinotecan.
II. Evaluate objective response rate in patients treated with these regimens. III. Evaluate overall survival of patients treated with these regimens. IV. Evaluate safety, tolerability, and adverse event profiles of these regimens in these patients.
V. Correlate a panel of molecular markers (e.g., those involved in the epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway, angiogenic pathway, and irinotecan metabolism) with clinical outcome in patients treated with these regimens.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to participating center, ECOG performance status (0 vs 1), and albumin (> 3.0 g/dL vs ≤ 3.0 g/dL). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.
ARM A: Patients receive cetuximab IV over 1-2 hours on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36; bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1*, 15, and 29 OR on days 1 and 22; and irinotecan IV over 30-90 minutes (at the same dose and schedule that the patient previously received) beginning on day 1.
ARM B: Patients receive cetuximab as in Arm A and bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on days 1*, 15, and 29.
NOTE: *Bevacizumab is given on day 2 (instead of day 1) of course 1, and is given on day 1 of subsequent courses.
In both arms, courses repeat every 6 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

The Call to Go Paperless
The automotive industry tends to run a little behind when it comes to technology. Many shops are still using primarily paper documentation. Now, more than ever, creating less touch points and a seamless system is important.
Pam Cichoke, VP of automotive sales at Nvoicepay, an automated payment processing business, spoke with Ratchet+Wrench at the beginning of April during the coronavirus outbreak. She shared a story about a contract that needed to be signed, and, because the person who needed to sign the contract was under quarantine, someone had to go deliver the contract, wait for the signature, and come back to the office. This wasted time, and, in a time where we’re social distancing, also was not the safest move. Creating a paperless process, using Docusign for example, would have eliminated all of this, Cichoke says.
“I think we’re all learning because we’re being forced to learn,” Cichoke says of the importance of going paperless during the coronavirus.
Nvoicepay is a company that helps move the automotive industry into a paperless world. It’s payment solution enables AP teams to pay supplier invoices through a single, automated workflow. This is an easy way for automotive repair shops to cut down on their interaction with vendors. Nvoice can convert 80 percent of a company’s payments from paper checks to electronic. Cichoke says they’ve had an increase in phone calls since social distancing has been put into action.
“This whole paperless model is going to benefit us all moving forward,” Cichoke says.
Going paperless isn’t only essential in a time of crisis. Going paperless can create a more efficient and more streamlined shop, Cichoke says.

Let’s do food too for each planet of the week.
- Sunday: planet Sun- food associated is wheat. Taste – bitter (like bitter gourd). Don’t eat wheat if you are allergic to it.
- Monday: planet Moon – food associated is white rice which is cooling just like moon light. Taste – salty. Don’t start dumping salt on food. Instead you can include sea vegetables.
- Tuesday: planet Mars – food is red lentils / masoor. Taste – pungent. If you are told that your “mangal” is too strong, then eat/drink some aloe vera juice which is cooling.
- Wednesday : planet Mercury – food is mung beans. Taste – mixed. You can eat mung dal and other green color vegetables too.
- Thursday: planet Jupiter – food is chick peas. Taste – sweet. sweet doesn’t mean sugar and cakes. But lot of foods are naturally sweet like both rice and wheat is sweet. If you chew properly, you will know. Chick peas are sweet too.
- Friday – planet Venus – food is lima beans (we call val in gujarati). Taste – sour. Do you know that santoshi ma vrat where sour is prohibited for 16 fridays? It’s all related.
- Saturday – planet Saturn – food is sesame seeds , urad dal (black lentils). You can eat any black color food like black beans, black sesame seeds, black rice. And also blue color food. Taste – astringent.
If you are trying to work with planets, astrology and fasting then you can include food for that planet. Before you start any good diet or new plan it’s a good idea to cleanse yourself first by taking laxative, drinking water. It’s like starting with a clean state. Also you can do mantras for the planets. Do it for 16 weeks and observer changes. Have an open mind.
Do you know abt rainbow diet? It basically says include all colors in your diet. Planet based diet is same. Include all taste and colors. And have a balanced meal.

Cherry M11 is a family of linear switches manufactured by Cherry. This switch has only been found on the HP 4953A protocol analyzer keyboard. The heat sealing used to attach the shell to the base is very weak and is prone to tearing off when pulling a keycap. This is likely the reason the switch is so rare, because when the heat seal fails the switch falls apart.
The M11-0101 schematic indicates that the initial switch design was completed late 1979. Modifications were done in 1980 and was marked complete in 1981. The HP 4953A keyboard was introduced sometime 1984. The switch does not appear in the 1982 Keyboards and Switches catalogue.
The M11 switch used different slider colours to represent weightings. Black for (TODO weight) and white for (TODO weight).
The switch's identity is not proven. The M11-0101 schematic does not cite the family name, and based on other Cherry switch part numbers it stands to reason that "M11" means "M1, subtype 1". However, based on the dates found on the schematic, and the clear similarity to Cherry M8 and M9, which were not listed in the 1973 and 1974 catalogues, it could be considered reasonable to assume that "M11" does in fact mean "M-eleven". The confirmed switch types introduced after M9, are MX, MY, and ML, which sidestep the issue of dealing with two digit series numbers.
The switch consists of 6 parts:

The Richland County Foundation, a not-for-profit 501(c) (3) organization, was established in 1945 as a way for individuals to pool and invest their gifts for the long-term good of Richland County and its residents.
We are marking the 75th Anniversary this year. Learn more here.
The Foundation helps people in Richland County give back to their community by investing their gifts for charity wisely so that grants can be made to improve the quality of life for all of the county’s citizens. Working together with donors, the Foundation meets important needs today and plans for a strong future in our community.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Richland County Foundation Board of Trustees redirected its Unrestricted/Community Fund to meet emerging needs. The Community Fund is awarding grants for basic needs such as food and housing along with other essential health and human services on a rolling basis to nonprofit organizations in Richland County.


It confused Gene Simmons, inspired Judy Collins and changed one pop star’s mum’s haircut. Here, musicians recall the impact of the Beatles’ debut single
I was three years and two months old when Love Me Do came out, but I had a plastic toy guitar and whenever the song came on the radio I would stand on a stool and sing along. I don’t know why that song more than any other would leap out at me, but it was the first song I ever sang. It might have been the harmonica intro – the only other song I remember with a harmonica break back then was Frank Ifield’s I’ll Remember You – but Love Me Do was head and shoulders above Freddie and the Dreamers or Gerry and the Pacemakers or any of those bands with similar accents. Lennon and McCartney’s voices weren’t swathed in reverb like records were then, and their sense of melody was phenomenal. In terms of what they did later, Love Me Do is the bit that gets jettisoned once the rocket is in orbit, but it was vital to the whole process. It still makes me smile when I hear it and I take enormous pride in thinking that it was the launchpad for me.

Step into a world where food becomes a celebration of health, flavor, and cultural legacy with the Mediterranean diet food list. This captivating culinary journey unveils a treasure trove of ingredients that have sustained generations along the sun-drenched shores of the Mediterranean Sea. From vibrant fruits and vegetables to heart-healthy fats and lean proteins, this article presents an exploration of the Mediterranean diet food list, offering insights into its nutritional riches and the joy it brings to both the palate and the body.
What Makes Food Mediterranean Diet Friendly?
In a world brimming with diets, the Mediterranean diet shines as a timeless beacon of balanced eating and vibrant health. At its heart lies an array of foods that capture the essence of both nourishment and pleasure. In this article, we delve into the key elements that define what makes a food Mediterranean diet friendly, unraveling the harmonious blend of flavors, nutrients, and cultural heritage that have garnered global admiration.
1. Abundance of Fresh Fruits and Vegetables
Central to the Mediterranean diet is an abundant array of colorful fruits and vegetables. These naturally nutrient-rich foods provide a treasure trove of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. From sun-kissed tomatoes to earthy spinach, these ingredients form the foundation of a diet that promotes well-being.
2. Emphasis on Whole Grains
Whole grains take center stage in the Mediterranean diet, offering a satisfying source of complex carbohydrates and fiber. Foods like whole wheat bread, brown rice, and quinoa are filling and contribute to sustained energy levels and digestive health.
3. Healthy Fats from Olive Oil
The Mediterranean diet is synonymous with extra virgin olive oil, a potent source of monounsaturated fats and antioxidants. Olive oil’s role in heart health, inflammation reduction, and culinary excellence cannot be overstated, making it a hallmark of Mediterranean cuisine.
4. Lean Proteins
Protein sources in the Mediterranean diet lean towards lean and plant-based options. Fish, particularly fatty varieties like salmon and sardines, provide omega-3 fatty acids that support cardiovascular health. Legumes such as beans and lentils offer protein and fiber, while poultry and lean cuts of meat are enjoyed in moderation.
5. Dairy and Dairy Alternatives
Dairy in the Mediterranean diet often takes the form of yogurt and cheeses. With its protein content and probiotics, Greek yogurt finds a prominent place. Alternatively, alternative plant-based milk options like almond or oat milk can be embraced.
6. Herbs and Spices for Flavor
Herbs and spices are the seasoning stars of the Mediterranean diet. These aromatic additions not only elevate taste but also offer potential health benefits. From oregano’s robustness to mint’s freshness, these flavors create a sensory journey.
7. Savoring the Sweetness
While moderation is key, the Mediterranean diet doesn’t shy away from sweet pleasures. Fresh fruits and occasional indulgences in honey and dark chocolate provide a touch of sweetness without derailing the diet’s healthful focus.

The US Constitution is arguably the greatest governing document ever written. But great notwithstanding, our Constitution has its frailties. Indeed, every socio-legal contract ever conceived has an intrinsic Achilles’ heel. For America’s constitution that vulnerable place is located in its fifth section: “Article V.”
Article V gives state-level lawmakers the power to force Congress to arrange a meeting (convention) of delegates to change, suspend, rewrite or overhaul the Constitution of the United States of America.
Our nation’s Constitution is not an easy study. The relevant part of Article V, however, is only 87 words in length and takes less than a minute to read and comprehend. (Lincoln’s Gettysburg address was a comparative tome at 272 words.) The literary footprint of Article V is unremarkable, belying a clear and present danger to our nation’s supreme law in its entirety.
Manipulation of our Constitution through its fifth section is serious and recent; this isn’t a fictional Tom Clancy conspiracy novel. SD’s House of Representatives conducted floor debate three times this year on the invocation of an Article V Convention (House Joint Resolution, HJR 1002). Our constitution was under genuine and substantial threat.
Ostensibly, the Resolution’s primary purpose was to force Congress to exercise self-control in collecting and expending taxpayer dollars. Washington D.C. was to be contractually bound by the Constitution via the colloquialisms “Convention of States” and “Balanced Budget Amendment.” Despite attractive taxpayer-seductive language, SD’s State Representatives wisely and soundly killed HJR 1002.
Although advertised otherwise, the Article V application for a Convention of States does not grant SD’s Legislature any control over convention topics. Our US Constitution would be hung on a wall to become a dartboard for random whimsical repeals and modifications. Would South Dakotans be willing to risk their right to keep and bear firearms? …or freely worship? I think not.
Had the Article V Convention been authorized, the US Congress would’ve had sole authority to appoint delegates and assign state allegiance to each. California’s 55 electoral votes versus South Dakota’s three? Could’ve happened. Congress also owned the prerogative to select the ratification process. Further, once convened, delegates become self-sovereign; accountable only to themselves. Not to Congress. Not to the SD Legislature. Not even to “We the People.”
Every SD state representative favors fiscal responsibility and limited federal government. Proponents of the Article V Convention couldn’t explain why they’d hold our Constitution hostage, in ransom for unenforceable federal fiscal requirements. Blackmailing Congress is flawed strategy. An Article V Convention directly implies that our Constitution is structurally unsound and in dire need of repair. The majority of SD’s state representatives did not – and do not – concur.
Besides, there’s a better and safer way. If answerable fiscal policy is the target, then American citizens should focus their sights on our elected officials at their federal posts. Know that our Constitution in its present state already includes restraints on the Feds. Demand your elected officials adhere to the Constitution – not amend it. None of the existing 27 constitutional amendments were enacted utilizing Article V procedures.
President James Madison – a primary author of our Constitution – expressed grave concern regarding Article V “difficulties.” In 1788, he stated he’d quite “tremble” at the thought of likely “insidious” partisan delegates at Article V Conventions. Eventually, he proposed the Constitution be void of all reference to the Article V process.
Our supreme law is vulnerable at its succinct, exploitable fifth section. Since our nation’s birth, more than a million American men and women have sacrificed their lives, providing the armor that’s protected the Constitution at its Achilles’ heel. The Article V Convention of States is perilous self-sabotage. The sacred, venerable Constitution of the United States of America is not wherein the problem lies. This state legislator asks – and votes – that it be left alone.
Rep. David L. Johnson, R-District 33

New York, NY – Despite assurances from the food delivery sites Grub-Hub and Seamless that they would overhaul their restaurant verification process following an I-Team investigation that unearthed dozens of “ghost” eateries, a follow-up by the news team reveals that at least one “ghost” kitchen is still operating, this time at the expense of a midtown Kosher bistro.
NBCNEWYORK.com reports that the scam began to unravel when an I-Team rep ordered food from Seamless-sponsored Mike’s Bistro Asian Fusion said to be located on West 72nd Street.
When the I-Team got to the address, they found an empty restaurant with only an old Mike’s Bistro sign and a “For Lease” placard in the window.
With prior knowledge that Mike’s Bistro on 72nd Street was not listed on the city’s Department of Health grading website, an I-Team member placed an order of edamame and vegetable dumplings from the number on the suspicious Seamless listing.
Within minutes a man riding a bike came up 72nd Street with the order.
When pressed, the man could not reveal where the food was cooked and a callback to the restaurant ended quickly when the I-Team rep began asking questions.
In reality, the old Mike’s Bistro moved over a year ago to 54th Street and is operating as a Kosher eatery.
When shown the food, Mike’s Bistro manager David Zinstein said, “This is definitely not my food.
We try to hold a very high standard. Especially in the Kosher world—which has to be Kosher food anything saying Mike’s Bistro could affect our business.”

Before coulrophobia became cool, Bozo the Clown ruled the airwaves. Created by Alan W. Livingston, Bozo first made the scene on a children's record and book series from Capitol Records. In 1954, entertainer Larry Harmon purchased the rights and suddenly Bozo was a celebrity, appearing on TV channels across the country thanks to the magic of franchising. Tragically though, interest in Bozo began to wane and a fear of clowns overtook our culture. But now… Bozo is back, baby! Actor David Arquette has purchased the rights to Bozo from Larry Harmon Pictures.
Apparently Arquette is creating a live interactive experience in Brooklyn, titled Empire Circus and starring good ol' Bozo!
"Bozo represents a world of love, light, and laughter," Arquette says. "Something we can all use more of right now."

Employers will face a crackdown on cash-in-hand payments from July 1, with new measures to stop businesses from claiming tax deductions for cash payments even though they're ignoring tax withholding rules.
If a contractor fails to supply their Australian Business Number and an employer doesn't deduct tax from their invoice, those wage payments will not be tax deductible either.
The move is yet another black economy measure coming into effect in two weeks' time.
The crackdown comes after research into lost tax income found Australian businesses had previously been able to claim tax deductions for practices that were actually black economy activities.
This meant businesses had previously been able to pay their staff in cash and then under-declare their income, and if that lack of declaration was later uncovered by the tax office the company would then be able to claim a "pay as you go" withholding deduction for those cash wages.
"You could say there is a bit of a loophole to be closed here, to encourage proper wages made to staff as well as payments to contractors," Tax Office assistant commissioner Peter Holt said.
If a contractor doesn't give a business an ABN when invoicing, companies should pay the top marginal tax rate to the Tax Office.
Small businesses who have not been abiding by the rules are invited to come forward ahead of time so they can maintain their deductions and "may be entitled to reduced penalties".
It's unknown how much the new rules will recoup in terms of tax dollars though assistant commissioner Holt believes the move will stop businesses in their tracks when under-reporting income.
"Transacting in cash is not illegal. When transacting in cash though, it is often used to deliberately hide income."
The introduction of single-touch payroll to all Australian businesses will make it easier for the Tax Office to see what a company pays staff in real time.
Those falling foul of the new system will also face a range of penalties.
