Maine’s allegedly pro-business governor has vetoed an investment in Maine’s economic future. Now it’s up to Maine’s pro-business Legislature to stand up to him and bring this question to the voters.
At issue is a $20 million bond issue that would provide matching funds for private investment in research and development.
The money would be awarded in a competitive grant process in which applicants would offer a one-to-one match or better, using taxpayer money to leverage private investment that will create the kinds of jobs Maine needs.
Past grants have funded projects in partnership with universities and businesses, stimulating innovation that boosts traditional industries, such as blueberry harvesting and forestry, as well as composite manufacturing and biotechnology.
The bond issue received unanimous support from the Legislature’s Appropriations Committee and overwhelming support in the House and Senate. It is an issue that usually cuts through partisanship and ideological boundaries.
But Gov. LePage is being typically stubborn about clinging to any leverage he can have to force the Legislature to cut spending in other areas.
The governor is taking this stand at a time when Maine lags behind its competitors for new investment in its commitment to funding research. Maine spends about 1 percent of its gross domestic product on such investments. The national average is 2.6 percent. The New England average is 4.7 percent.
The governor’s ideological stand is not good for Maine, and it’s not good business. He says he cannot support this bond because it would use borrowed money to pay for operating expenses.
But someone with his background in business should know that this is how new endeavors get started. In the private sector, startups use equity investments and loans to keep the lights on and pay salaries until they can stand on their own. It’s not as if investments in building and equipment are the only use for borrowed money.
Lawmakers should look beyond the debt when considering this veto and focus on what the state can expect to see as a return for its investment. Investments in innovation increase the state’s capacity for high-paying jobs.
They also increase the skill level of Maine’s work force, opening the door to future investment.
This veto is poorly supported by the facts and short-sighted.
Lawmakers from both parties should stand up for the future of the Maine economy, and let Maine voters decide whether to make this investment in their future.

Mental health affects how people think, feel and do. This can include emotional, psychological and social well being. Mental health affects your mind, emotions, time, environment and relationships, and poor mental health can even take a toll on physical health, causing numerous life threatening diseases.
Why Does It Matter?
Mental health is as important as physical health. Four out of five employees say that workplace stress has an effect on their relationships in and outside of the workplace. Mental health struggles can impact the workplace, specifically by affecting employees’ physical health. Depression interferes with a person’s ability to complete physical job tasks about 20% of the time and reduces cognitive performance about 35% of the time. Additionally, depression can increase your risk of physical health concerns such as diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. Mental health and physical health go hand in hand. As an employer, it is a responsibility to invest in your employees’ physical and mental health.
As an employer, it’s essential that you ensure that your employees are taking care of themselves.
Here are 3 Ways Employers Can Combat Mental Health in The Workplace
Sitting at a desk eight to five every day can be exhausting. Encourage employees to take breaks within their workday by going for a short walk, running an errand, eating out for lunch, or taking a lap around the internal office. When employees take breaks, their brain can better process things and have more “aha” moments, which ultimately makes them more productive.
It’s important that employees take a lunch break every day, meaning an out-of-office “real” lunch break. About 35% of employees eat lunch at their desk every day, meaning they may not get up from their office during their 8 hour day. Lunch breaks should be an escape for people to take a second for themselves, without the craziness of the office.
Do Not Hesitate To Disconnect
When your employees leave work in the evening, make an emphasis on disconnecting for a few hours. Set a company wide policy for a period of time of disconnection; where employees can’t and shouldn’t email each other regarding work tasks. Tools like “do not disturb” and “auto reply” notify people when someone is busy and will be back shortly. It is important for employees to treat themselves on days off from work, and do things like travel, explore, exercise, and learn. Believe it or not, these experiences can even bring new ideas that they can take back to work. It is also important to take advantage of time off, for an optimal work-life balance.
Practice What You Preach
Set up a system where coworkers can hold each other accountable. Whether this is logging sleep or tracking steps, checking in with a coworker every so often is important to ensuring the workspace has healthy, happy employees. You may also consider doing wellness checks every so often. Nearly 70% of employees enrolled in a wellness program have reported higher job satisfaction. In summary, the workplace is an optimal setting to create awareness of the importance of mental health in and well being.

A UFC newcomer will try to become the latest fighter to keep Shane Del Rosario from his first victory in the promotion.
Del Rosario (11-2 MMA, 0-2 UFC) will meet Guto Inocente (6-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) in December at the UFC’s year-end card in Las Vegas. UFC officials announced the heavyweight fight on Friday.
UFC 168 takes place Dec. 28 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and Facebook. Del Rosario vs. Inocente likely will be part of the prelims.
Del Rosario, who started his career 11-0, including 3-0 with three first-round stoppages under the Strikeforce banner, has lost both of his fights in the UFC. After the merger of the two promotions, Del Rosario debuted against Stipe Miocic at UFC 146 in May 2012, but dropped a second-round TKO. Against Pat Barry this past December, he was knocked out in the second round at the TUF 16 Finale.
Prior to the skid in the UFC, the Californian had won 10 of his 11 fights with first-round stoppages, and the one that didn’t end in the first still was a TKO, but in the second frame.
Inocente hopes to stay on track with a four-fight winning streak, but he hasn’t fought since May 2012, when he outpointed Virgil Zwicker in his lone Strikeforce fight. He was scheduled to meet Gian Villante a little more than a year ago, but the Strikeforce card he was booked for was canceled. Before the Strikeforce win, all five of his wins had been by stoppage.
With the addition, the latest UFC 168 card now includes:
- Champ Chris Weidman vs. Anderson Silva – for UFC middleweight title
- Champ Ronda Rousey vs. Miesha Tate – for women’s bantamweight title
- Josh Barnett vs. Travis Browne
- Diego Brandao vs. Dustin Poirier
- Fabricio Camoes vs. Jim Miller
- Uriah Hall vs. Chris Leben
- Michael Johnson vs. Gleison Tibau
- Manny Gamburyan vs. Dennis Siver
- William Macario vs. Bobby Voelker
- Shane Del Rosario vs. Guto Inocente

By Regie Simmons
In the old Westerns it was always easy to identify the bad guys because they always wore black. But, in the ensuring decades it has not been as easy to delineate the good from the bad. Bad guys don’t always wear black, and every once in a while one of them actually turns out to be a hero.
Recent research sponsored by the American Diabetes Association and the National Institutes of Health is actually proving incredible insight into a notorious “bad guy,” and forcing researchers to rethink how we view good and bad fat.
Body fat—the good and the bad
Did you know that your body has two kinds of fats? No, seriously. Just like the fat that you can consume in foods, your body is naturally comprised of both good and bad fats. The question that researchers have been asking for years, is how we can increase the amount of “good fat” while reducing the bad?
Body fat or adipose tissue, as it’s known in biology, actually plays several vital roles within the body. In addition to insulating the body and cushioning internal organs, body fat serves as an energy store and secretes hormones such as leptin and estrogen. Brown fat or brown adipose tissue is considered to be “good fat” and is common to humans, rodents and small mammals. It was once believed that brown fat only existed in infants but was recently discovered in adults.
Researchers believe that brown fat may hold weight loss secrets that would benefit overweight and obese individuals. In infants and adults, brown fat actually generates heat to warm the body when it is exposed to cold. To generate heat the brown fat, mainly located in the neck and upper chest, burns calories through a unique thermogenic processes that raises the basal metabolic rate (BMR).
Brown fat is very different from white adipose tissue or white fat that develops from a sedentary lifestyle combined with poor diet. A certain amount of white fat is beneficial and necessary for bodily functions, but problems arise when too much accumulates within the body. Elevated levels of white fat especially abdominal fat are related to several disease including obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. And, unlike brown fat, white fat doesn’t burn calories.
New research offers hope
Two studies of mice and humans conducted by the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston suggest that exercise can actually led to a browning of white fat.
The studies found that mice that ran on an exercise wheel for 11 days and men who undertook 12 weeks of training on an exercise bicycle underwent a browning of their subcutaneous white adipose tissue that appears to have led to profound changes in the way that fat behaved in the body.
The browned white fat behaved more like brown adipose tissue in that it was more metabolically and thermogenically active than white adipose tissue. Researchers were able to discover that this “new” fat affected other bodily tissues by transplanting the exercise-training fat into obese mice. The murine study suggests that the browned fat was associated with increased glucose uptake, improved body composition, decreased fat mass and increased insulin sensitivity.
“Our results showed that exercise doesn’t just have beneficial effects on muscles, it also affects fat, said Kristin Stanford, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow at Joslin Diabetes Center. “It’s clear that when fat gets trained, it becomes browner and more metabolically active. We think there are factors being released into the bloodstream from the healthier fat that are working on other tissues.”
While researchers were unable to perform a similar transplant in humans they believe that exercise plays an important role.
“We know that exercise is good for us,” says Laurie Goodyear, PhD, senior researcher on the study and associate professor at Harvard Medical School. “But what we’re showing here is that fat changes dramatically in response to exercise training. This is not the fat that’s around your middle, which is bad fat and can lead to diabetes and other insulin resistance conditions. It’s the fat that’s under the skin, the subcutaneous fat that adapts in a way that appears to be having important metabolic effects.
Several studies have been conducted which conclude that 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per week, may be enough to improve an adults overall health.
Based upon the studies conducted by the Joslin Diabetes Center, it’s probably a safe bet that other researchers will be conducting trials of their own to investigate the correlation between exercise and the browning of white fat. In the meanwhile there are some valuable takeaways from the data that has been published. First, if you aren’t exercising then you need to start. Second, if you regularly engage in physical activity then you are definitely headed in the right direction, so keep it up.

Why Are My Zucchini Leaves Turning Yellow?
Yellow leaves on zucchini can be attributed to a range of factors, including environmental conditions, pests, diseases, or genetic markers. To determine the cause and find the appropriate solution, it’s important to consider the growing conditions for your zucchini plants.
Drought or Waterlogged Soil
Both waterlogged and overly dry soils can lead to yellowing and wilting of zucchini leaves. In heavy soils with poor drainage, a lack of oxygen can cause wilting, yellowing, and browning of leaves and stems. If your soil tends to retain water, consider planting your zucchini in raised beds for better control over the soil conditions.
Improper use or overuse of fertilizers and pesticides can also result in yellowing foliage. Fertilizer burn can cause leaf scorch, wilting, and yellowing, especially in hot and dry conditions. To mitigate this, opt for slow-release, organic fertilizers or amend the soil with compost. When applying granular fertilizer, ensure it does not come into contact with the leaves and water it in thoroughly.
Pesticide burn occurs when stressed plants are exposed to pesticides, resulting in chemical damage. Even seemingly harmless insecticidal soaps and horticultural oils can harm zucchini plants in extreme weather conditions. It’s crucial to read and follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer when using any pesticides.
Various pests can cause yellowing of zucchini leaves. Common culprits include squash bugs, squash vine borers, spider mites, and aphids. These pests can suck the sap from the leaves, leading to yellowing and overall plant decline.
To address pest infestations, consider using insecticidal soaps or neem oil to treat the affected plants. Additionally, introducing beneficial insects like ladybugs and lacewings can help control pest populations naturally.
Cucumber Mosaic Virus
Cucumber mosaic virus is a common disease that affects zucchini plants, often transmitted by aphids. This viral infection causes yellowing of leaves along the veins, stunted growth, and poor fruit development. Unfortunately, there is no cure once a plant is infected.
To prevent cucumber mosaic virus, monitor your plants for aphids and promptly treat any infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Remove and destroy any infected plant parts to prevent further spread.
Fusarium wilt is a fungal disease that affects the vascular tissue of zucchini plants. It can be carried by cucumber beetles and leads to yellowing leaves. Sadly, fungicides are ineffective once the plant is infected. The best course of action is to remove and dispose of infected plants.
Zucchini plants may also experience yellowing leaves due to bacterial and fungal diseases like angular leaf spot, bacterial leaf spot, gummy stem blight, phytophthora crown rot, scab, and aster yellows. It’s important to identify the specific symptoms and seek appropriate treatments or preventive measures.
How to Treat Yellow Zucchini Leaves
To effectively treat yellowing zucchini leaves, it’s crucial to identify the underlying cause. Based on the specific issue, consider the following solutions:
Irrigation: Ensure your plants receive adequate water by following a regular watering schedule. Water deeply at the base of the plants to avoid wetting the leaves.
Soil Drainage: If waterlogged soil is the problem, consider planting zucchini in raised beds or improving soil drainage before the next planting season.
Fertilization: Opt for water-soluble, organic, slow-release fertilizers. Test the soil before planting to identify any nutrient deficiencies, and amend it accordingly. Zucchini plants require sufficient manganese, sulfur, and iron for healthy foliage.
Pest Control: Employ organic methods to control pests effectively. Use horticultural oils or insecticidal soaps on cooler, calmer days to avoid damage to the plants. Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer and avoid applying pesticides in hot, dry, or windy conditions.
Preventing Yellowing Zucchini Leaves
To prevent yellow leaves on your zucchini plants, select disease-resistant varieties and properly prepare the planting bed. Prior to planting, enrich the soil with compost and other organic matter to improve soil structure. If the soil is dense or predominantly clay, incorporate peat moss and compost to enhance drainage.
Remember, chemical control should only be considered as a last resort. Organic approaches are safer and more environmentally friendly.
By understanding the causes and implementing the appropriate solutions, you can ensure healthy zucchini plants with vibrant green leaves. Enjoy a bountiful harvest and savor the delicious flavors of homegrown zucchini!

Knowing how many calories you need to eat as well as your macronutrient numbers is important for your success in weight loss or weight gain goals! Generally, you want to keep below 50 grams of carbs to stay in ketosis, but how about your fat and protein? Use our macro calculator to find out exactly what your daily macronutrients and calorie intake should look like. After all, calories are not created equal! You can read more about Calories vs. Macros if you’re interested!

Hey thank you so much Dorreen! 🙂 I hope your keto journey gets better! Keep going!!! And know that your coun’t net carbs (g of carbs – grams of fiber). So when you have fruits and vegetables on your keto diet, try to pick the ones that really high in fibers such as green peppers, spinach and raspberries. I usually have eggs and low carb sausages in the morning and a spinach salad with chicken or pork, bacon, avocado (not too much) and a high fat / low carb dressing. For dinner I would eat stuffed peppers, frittata, omelet or some stir fry.
keto diet made simple
Once you know what you will be eating on keto, you will probably be wondering how much of you should eat for each meal. Since meal size depends on the individual and his/her goals, we recommend using a calorie tracking app and our carb tracking guide to help you figure out the macronutrient content of your meals. As you track your macros, you will be able to figure out what adjusts you need to make to your diet to reach your goals.
I am new to this diet and have been incorporating your recipes and tips although I have not been able to hit the 21g carb goal I have been in the 30’s for 3 days. I tested last night with no trace of Keytones and haven’t lost any weight yet. My calorie intake is very close to my daily goals. I read that the first few days several pounds will be lost. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Can you drink vodka on keto diet
First of all, don't weigh yourself more than once a week. There are natural fluctuations related to water retention and hormonal balance. If you are a woman, you will notice these fluctuations more often. If you see no movement on the scales or even if your weight goes up, it doesn't mean you are not losing fat. If you exercise, you may even see a little increase in weight, as muscles are heavier than fat. The important thing here is to concentrate on losing body fat. Don’t rely just on scales, use body tape, calipers, belts or clothes to see any changes.
Can keto cause arthritis
Note: Because you'll be excluding some major food groups on the keto diet (grains, many fruits) you should definitely think about taking a multivitamin—especially one that contains folic acid, which helps your body make new cells and is often found in enriched breads, cereals, and other grain products, says Julie Upton, R.D., cofounder of nutrition website Appetite for Health.

There are so many tricks, shortcuts, and gimmicks out there on achieving optimal ketosis – I’d suggest you don’t bother with any of that. Optimal ketosis can be accomplished through dietary nutrition alone (aka just eating food). You shouldn’t need a magic pill to do it. Just stay strict, remain vigilant, and be focused on recording what you eat (to make sure your carb and protein intake are correct).

The round ligament, or ligamentum teres, of the liver is a dense ligamentous band of fibrous tissue. It is a remnant of the fetal circulatory system, the umbilical veins.
The world's most advanced 3D anatomy platform
Key Features/Anatomical Relations
The round ligament of the liver lies in the inferior portion of the falciform ligament. This ligament runs from the deep surface of the umbilicus to the inferior surface of the liver.
The round ligament of the liver is the remnant of the umbilical vein. The umbilical vein carried highly oxygenated blood from the mother’s placenta, through the fetal liver, to the inferior vena cava and heart for systemic distribution.
Following birth, the umbilical vein is no longer functional, and the patent tube eventually turns fibrotic, at which point it’s called the round ligament of the liver.

Thank you for contacting me with your concerns about declining honey bee populations. It was good to hear from you.
As you may know, honey bees are a vital part of our nation’s crop production because they pollinate a variety of important fruit, vegetable, and specialty crops. However, in 2006, beekeepers on the East Coast began reporting large declines in their honey bee populations. Adult honey bees stopped returning to their hive, which eventually led to the collapse of many colonies. Scientists are calling these dramatic and currently unexplained population crashes Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). Recent data shows beekeepers in 35 states, including Washington, have been affected by CCD.
I understand the importance of maintaining healthy honey bee populations. Washington state apple producers depend on honey bees for over 90 percent of their crop pollination. As a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, I have supported funding increases for the US Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) research divisions to work on CCD.
In April 2013 the European Commission voted to place severe restrictions on the use of certain pesticides for two years, citing a link between the use of these pesticides and declining honey bee populations. The US Environmental Protection Agency and the USDA released a report on May 2, 2013 highlighting the need for more research on the links between pesticide exposure in the field and Colony Collapse Disorder. Please know that I am monitoring this matter closely, and will continue to support research efforts to help us address this important issue.
Rest assured, I will continue work with my colleagues in the Senate to address CCD. I will certainly keep your thoughts in mind should legislation related to this issue come before the Senate during the 114th Congress.
If you would like to know more about my work in the Senate, please feel free to sign up for my weekly updates at http://murray.senate.gov/updates. Again, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with me.

Rod Smith sees the changes
- Smith said Tony Franklin was much more animated than usual. He stopped a play and showed everyone on the field why a particular route was incorrect and actually ran the (correct) route himself.
- Smith said Franklin commented that "the old Franklin" was back.
- Smith said he'd never seen "the old Franklin" before and this guy was much more stern.
- Smith said the team is running a smaller group of plays and focusing on making those few plays work correctly every single time. If anyone made a mistake today, Smith said the team had to run the play again. Some play were run as many as three or four times in a row.
- Smith said the tempo was much faster than ever before today.
I'll have more on this in a bit ...

Diterpenoids from Saliva plebeia R. Br. and Their Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Activities
AbstractA new skeleton of diterpenoid, 1,2,3,4,4α,9,10,10α-octahydro-(4α-hydroxyymethyl) -1,1-dimethyl-9-(1-methylethyl)-(2S,3S,4αR,9R,10αS)-2,3,5,7-phenanthrenetertrol, named plebeianiol A (1), along with four known diterpenoids (2–5), were isolated from Salvia plebeia R. Br. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectral analysis. In the bioactivity tests, compounds 1, 2 and 5 showed 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities with IC50 values of 20.0–29.6 µM. In addition, these three compounds had significant inhibitory effects on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced macrophages. Compounds 1–3 inhibited nitric oxide (NO) production in LPS-induced macrophages with IC50 values of 18.0–23.6 µM. These results showed that compounds 1, 2 had significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and might provide basis for the treatment of diseases associated with oxidative lesions and inflammation.

Florida Panthers forward Jaromir Jagr passed Ron Francis for fourth on the NHL all-time points list in a 4-2 win against the Boston Bruins at BB&T Center on Thursday.
Jagr passed Francis with his 1,799th point when he had an assist on Aleksander Barkov’s power-play goal with 1:20 left in the second period to tie the game 1-1. Jagr reached 1,800 with an assist on Jonathan Huberdeau’s goal at 4:02 of the third period.
Jagr, who has 721 goals and 1,079 assists in 1,549 NHL games, is 50 points behind Gordie Howe for third place all-time.
The 43-year-old, who has played for eight NHL teams, told a Czech newspaper this week he is contemplating signing with the Panthers to play a 22nd NHL season.

The Des Moines Register reported today (7/24/2014) that, “An Iowa newspaper editor fired after publishing his views on homosexuals is claiming he was the victim of religious discrimination by his former employer.” He has filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Editors of newspapers should not be protected by laws against discrimination in employment based on religious belief. Newspapers are privately owned businesses that typically express the opinions of their owners. They benefit our society by their independent advocacy regarding public policy. They should not be forced by government to employ editors who hold beliefs contrary to their own – especially political or public policy beliefs. Owners of newspapers should be free to fire editors at will, unless they have entered into an employment contract to the contrary. For government to force a newspaper to continue to employ an editor is wrong and is bad public policy.

A two-day workshop on water quality modelling in the Peace and Athabasca Rivers was held at Environment Canada's National Hydrology Research Institute in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on March 22-23, 1993. This workshop was part of the Northern River Basins Study (NRBS) and brought together experts in riverine ecology and water quality modelling from government, industry, and university communities. The goal of the workshop was to review and assess available modelling approaches for estimating the impact of biological oxygen demand (BOD) and nutrient loadings on the water quality of the Peace and Athabasca River systems. Primarily, this workshop dealt with Questions Five and Seven of the Study which, in part, fall under the responsibility of the Nutrients Component Group. These questions deal with the effect of nutrient loading on water quality and with the concentrations of dissolved oxygen (DO) required to protect riverine biota.

Smite developers Hi-Rez Studios and Todd Harris have started a new Kickstarter campaign. They're asking for $50,000,000 to create 'game,' which isn't just a game, but an "experience." Among other things, it'll be "resource based," "2d," and even "drivatar." Ambitious goals.
Backer rewards for the parody campaign include "pixel art portrait of you (limit 1 pixel)" and "you will be able to use your name as the main character of game, via the in-game keyboard."
Kickstarter lists the creator's real name as Andrew Sexton, who we presume is Hi-Rez content marketing lead Andy Sexton. A few Hi-Rez employees have commented in the thread on the Smite subreddit and tweeted about the campaign. We've reached out to Hi-Rez for further comment on 'game.'
Thanks for the tip, Rhys.
[Update] Hi-Rez has sent PC Gamer a statement about the parody, copied below:
For a few years now Hi-Rez Studios has created a live action web series called "Minion Has Spawned."
The series is a fake reality show - showing life at Hi-Rez but it is in fact a self-parody.
The show is intended to entertain our community but we also touch on subjects that are topical within the game industry: In past episodes we've alluded to paid live-streamers & youtubers, console wars, overhyped marketing campaigns, and even the Gamergate controversy.
In today's episode we reference Kickstarter and to promote the episode a parody Kickstarter campaign video was posted.
To confirm our position, at Hi-Rez Studios we support Independent Developers and we very much support Crowdfunding using vehicles like Kickstarter. Many successful game projects have been funded via Kickstarter and we ourselves heavily utilize crowdfunding for our esports prize pools.
Per the Minion Has Spawned episode it is satire and the parody is mainly aimed at ourselves; game developers sometimes take themselves too seriously and can get pretentious and buzzwordy with marketing toward their ambitious goals.


The Amarnath Yatra has been cancelled in view of the coronavirus pandemic, the board that manages the shrine said on Monday.
In a statement, the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board said that it has decided to hold the annual pilgrimage in a symbolic manner. All rituals will be performed at the shrine according to past practices, it said.
The decision was taken after Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha held discussions with the members of the board, senior police officers and administrative officials.
At the meeting, Sinha, who is also the chairperson of the shrine management board, directed officials to ensure that devotees can attend the morning and evening aarti online. “Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board is aware of and respect the sentiments of millions of devotees, and to keep the sentiments alive, the Board shall continue the live telecast of morning and evening Aarti from the Holy Cave shrine,” the lieutenant governor said.
Sinha said that priests visiting the shrine cave to perform the aarti would follow all Covid-19 appropriate behaviour. Nitishwar Kumar, the chief executive officer of the shrine board, said that it has made arrangements for the mace of deity Shiva to be taken to the cave on August 22, when the yatra will conclude.
“Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board has been assessing the Covid-19 situation in the Union Territory and the country,” he said. “Our focus is on containing the pandemic and strengthening health infrastructure.”
Kumar added that both the morning aarti at 6 am and the evening one at 5 pm will be live-streamed on the board’s official website and the mobile application specifically dedicated for the devotees.
This is the second consecutive year that the annual pilgrimage has been called off due to the pandemic, reported NDTV. The online registration for this year’s pilgrimage was also earlier suspended.
The 56-day pilgrimage was due to start on both routes of Pahalgam and Baltal simultaneously from June 28 and end on August 22.
Meanwhile, India reported 53,256 new coronavirus cases, taking its overall count of infections since the pandemic broke out in January 2020 to 2,99,35,221. This is India’s lowest daily rise in cases in 88 days. The country’s toll rose by 1,422 to 3,88,135.

Days later, and we’re still not any closer to getting real answers on this goofy Pelosi/Hammer story. The only thing that’s happened is that the media has been changing the story to suit the narrative. All the so-called “facts” they published early on, and what everyone ran with, mocked, and said didn’t “make sense,” have either been changed or omitted so the story makes more “sense.” It’s like trial and error, and we’re all watching it happen in real-time. Fake news at its best…
And it’s so obvious that this whole clown show is political. This is the new Dems “battle cry.” They want America to get out and vote their butts off for an 82-year-old millionaire drunkard named Paul Pelosi, whose wife is the most unpopular politician in Congress. I guess Joe and his team of nursemaids and Handlers don’t realize that Americans have had it with the clueless and out-of-touch political elites… or any elites for that matter.
I was on TikTok, and I saw this guy talking about how bizarre the whole Pelosi story was, so I stopped to listen, and not only was he so spot-on, and filled with common sense, but he also pointed out something we’ve all missed about that 911 call Pelosi made from the bathroom…very interesting indeed.
You can watch the video below:
@thesituationwithsuresh None of this is making sense…and there’s a reason why. #paulpelosi #nancypelosi #hammered #sanfrancisco #daviddepape ♬ original sound – 221B
Why on earth would Pelosi be in the bathroom, calling 911, and then hang up and rejoin a crazy nut, who wanted to murder his wife?
Also, I thought the cops who showed up were doing a welfare check, so there were two sets of different cops, responding to two different things, is that what the story is now?
But wait, we’ve got a new version from NBC now. Apparently, it was not a “mysterious 3rd person” who opened the door for police, as the media first reported. Now, we’re being told it was Paul Pelosi himself.
So, the crazy hammer-wielding guy who was there to murder Nancy, just let Paul answer the door?
How long was he in the bathroom for, then?
Here’s what conservative influencer Benny Johnson had to say: “BREAKING: Paul Pelosi opened the door for cops, did not flee or declare emergency, walked back to the attacker in the house, then was ATTACKED!? WHAT!?”
I’m sorry, but this makes zero sense.

They are trying to sell us a strange story here, and things are just not adding up.
UPDATE: things just got a helluva lot stranger. Now, NBD and The Today Show deleted and scrubbed this story from their websites and social media.
Here’s what people online are saying:
“So, the San Fran DA lied to all of us?”
“Release the videos. I’m tired of conspiracy theories being promulgated by the media”
“The story just keeps changing and getting weirder and weirder”
“DUI Pelosi getting more cover from corrupt law enforcement.”
“Ok if someone “breaks into” my home and I can get to the door to let the police in the absolute last thing I would do is go back inside. Of course they break in they aren’t getting the chance to go very far… that is all I’m saying”
“Everything is not what it seems.”
“Let’s please remember one very important take away: The Pelosis were harboring an illegal alien. That happened to be Pauls gay lover.”
“I smell a rat!”
“You ain’t gotta be a farmer to know the smell of Bullshit”
“WTH! This story changes ever day and becomes more and more bizarre by the minute. What we do know is that we dont know WTH really happened! I sense a coverup! Something is not right about this case.”
“Pauly P is a battered husband, beaten by Nancy when she is drunk, which is often, who was assaulted by his illegal alien gay lover. Now that makes the most sense.”
“In less than a week, anyone repeating this will be accused of spreading disinformation, if the trend continues to hold.”
“More fishy than the Smollett story.”
“What an absolute cluster f^**! (literally and figuratively)”
“How did the attack happen in front of cops ? There was no shouting no signs of disturbance so why didn’t Pelosi flee outside when cops arrived ? This stinks like all red flags false flags inside jobs. This is seeking sympathy at election time we’ve seen it all before”
You’d have to be a real dummy to believe all these different stories being told. It’s absurd.

Ever since Renault shocked the world by unveiling the Alpine Vision concept car in Monte Carlo, there has only been one question in everyone’s mind – “Is it good enough to even come close to the widely loved Alpine A110?”
There have recently been rumours about Renault releasing a new Alpine, and finally here it is: the Alpine Vision concept. Featuring a brand new 4 cylinder turbocharged engine, engineered by Renault sport, it will produce around 300 bhp and have extremely low weight of around 1040 kg, due to carbon fibre and fibreglass body. It is also rumoured that it will be able to achieve 0-62mph in 4.5 seconds, and “deliver its power with an inviting purr.” It will also have a dual-clutch transmission just like the 4C – another lightweight sports car. All of this this means that it should be able to deliver the incredible agility and power that the A110 was known for.
The exterior of the Alpine Vision concept is truly extraordinary, with its stunning wheels, pronounced headlights and sportish lines. It certainly does look like it deserves to be called a sports car. But the place where the Vision truly stuns is in the interior, with leather and microfibre hillclimb style seats, carbon all over the dash, and also a throwback to the A110 with an analogue stopwatch placed right next to the central screen. All of this really helps to bring together the best of the A110 whilst also adding a modern touch with the TFT screen, carbon fibre panels and a Lamborghini style start button.
The main rivals for the Vision will be other lightweight sports cars such as Alfa Romeo’s 4C, which is also known for its inventive headlights, all of Lotus’s lightweight speedsters, and with Porsche set to bring 4 cylinder engines to its Boxster and Cayman cars, it will also become a rival. However, Alpine does also have its heritage which should help them with the Vision, but it means they would really need to deliver one hell of a car!
Well, due to the Vision being a concept we are a little way from seeing this car on the road, however we will see the final version of the car before the end of 2020 and it will hopefully be going on sale in summer 2021. The final car has been rumoured to contain at least 80% of the concept’s car design, and will first be brought out to Europe and will then be released worldwide a short time after. Alpine say that the 12 months will give them time to make the final car extremely close to the concept, “in terms of design, weight, handling, agility and attention to detail.”

Wanuskewin Heritage Park, Wanuskewin Heritage Park Access Rd, Saskatoon, SK S0K 2T0, Canada
About the Event
Wanuskewin Heritage Park sits above the Opimihaw Creek and the South Saskatchewan River near Saskatoon – a window into a part of Canada’s history that remains largely undiscovered, and a link to our past unlike any other National Historic Site in Canada. Wanuskewin’s uniqueness is not just the fact that there exists evidence of ancient peoples, but rather the composition of many different aspects of habitation, hunting and gathering, and spirituality – all in one place.
Wanuskewin provides snowshoe rental free with admission to explore their beautiful trails. You are also welcome to bring your own if you have them. Kids, friends, and family are all welcome to join! Our adventure in Wanuskewin will be weather permitting as there has to be enough snow on the trails to use the snowshoes. Please RSVP if you're interested so we can keep in touch closer to the date.

This year, the revue has attracted about 2,500 visitors, which is a record, and something that Erik could not believe when he started the first revue in the family's basement more than a decade ago.
– I never thought that there would be a summer revue in Öje, says Erik Karlsson.
"Usually react to the fact that we are young"
Erik is both director and producer and writes most of the revue together with the rest of the ensemble who are all locals and about 20 years old. The fact that they are young – but still experienced – is something that people usually notice.
– People usually react to it, but there have only been positive reactions, says Agnes Nilsson.
Previously, the revue has been played indoors, but when the pandemic hit, it moved out to the disused party venue in Öje, which was renovated with the help of locals, local sports club and other committed people.
– The village really comes alive when the revue is underway and people set up as both parking attendants and in the kiosk without any problems, says Erik Karlsson
For the ensemble, the revue Swedish Championship in August now awaits. This is the second time that the revue has been selected, but this year they compete in three categories.

|Subject: Re: Loire Valley|
The Loire Valley is loaded with interesting things to do. Fontrevaud Abbey, where Richard the Lionheart is buried is very interesting (southwest of Blois). There are chateaux everywhere, including at Azay Le Rideau and Amboise as well as the better known Chenonceau etc. The Bayeaux Tapestry I'm sure is in the Samur area, there's also a place where Leonardo da Vinci lived but I'm more vague on that one. The garden at Villandry is fantastic, the borders are of vegetables such as cabbages and lettuce, and the display when viewed from the higher walls is extraordinary in it's geometric layout. The gelato that's for sale outside the gate is pretty decent as well. I'm sure you'll wish you had more time there.
Regards, Sally from Sydney

text: The goal of the present clinical study was to evaluate new bone formation in human extraction sockets augmented with enamel matrix derivatives (EMD) and Bio-Oss Collagen. Patients with symmetrical single-rooted teeth in the bilateral quadrants of the upper jaw condemned for extraction participated in this study. Following extraction, the sockets (20 sockets) were randomly augmented using either EMD or Bio-Oss Collagen. After 3 months of healing, bone biopsies were obtained and prepared for histological analyses. Dental implants were then placed. Implant stability quotient (ISQ) readings were obtained for each implant at the time of surgery and at 1 and 3 months postoperatively. The mean new bone formation was 34.57 +/- 25.67% in the EMD sites and 28.80 +/- 16.14% in the Bio-Oss Collagen sites. There was no significant difference between the groups. The ISQ values were significantly higher for the implants placed in the EMD sites at the first and third months, but no significant differences were observed in the ISQ values for the implants placed in the Bio-Oss Collagen sites. The augmentation of the extraction sockets with EMD or Bio-Oss Collagen leads to similar behaviour in bone regeneration.
