CEDAR FALLS — A challenging non-conference schedule should have the Northern Iowa Panthers ready for the start of a difficult Missouri Valley Football Conference race. The 13th ranked Panthers are 2-2 after a loss at number five Weber State and open the league slate by hosting 17th ranked Youngstown State.That’s UNI coach Mark Farley who says the Panthers have been tested.Youngstown State is off to a 4-0 start.The Penguins are averaging more than 296 yards of rushing per game. GRINNELL — Grinnell College has canceled its remaining football season. Athletic Director Andy Hamilton says the squad only had 28 healthy players for this week’s game at St. Norbert.Hamilton says they were concerned about further injury playing with such a limited roster.Hamilton says their plan is to bring the program back for next season. There are five seniors on the squad.Grinnell lost its first three games by a combined score of 114-3. IOWA CITY — Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz will have a healthier team this weekend when the Hawkeyes visit Michigan. Safety Kaevon Merriweather and corner Julius Brents are expected to play and offensive tackle Alaric Jackson returned to practice. He suffered a sprained knee early in the season opener.Ferentz says the positive side of early season injuries is the Hawkeyes have built some depth.Iowa has only won 15 of the 60 games in the series against Michigan and Ferentz says it is never easy winning on the road against one of the country’s premier programs.Time of possession is considered an overrated stat but Ferentz says it can be crucial to winning on the road.An improved Iowa run game may help that cause. The Hawkeyes are averaging 217 yards on the ground per game and 5.2 yards per carry.===Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh hopes his team can put together a streak. After getting hammered at Wisconsin the Wolverines bounced back with a 52-0 win over Rutgers.Harbaugh on the challenge the Hawkeyes provide.Harbaugh says Iowa and Wisconsin have a lot of similarities.Kickoff on Saturday is scheduled for 11 o’clock, with the pre-game at 9:00 AM on KGLO. AMES — Matt Campbell coached Iowa State teams have won seven straight games in October and they look to keep the run going at home against TCU. The Cyclones are 2-2 after a 23-21 loss at Baylor.Campbell says there are a lot of things that go into their October success.Campbell is not concerned about a run game that managed only 62 yards in a loss at Baylor. Trailing by three touchdowns the Cyclones were forced to go to the air.Campbell says defensive end JaQuan Bailey is questionable for the game. He suffered a lower leg injury in the loss at Baylor.Kickoff in Ames is scheduled for 11 o’clock on Saturday — high school volleyball last nightCentral Springs 25-25-25, Newman 12-21-17Waukee 3-0 Mason City (set scores not available)Clarion-Goldfield-Dows 25-25-25-25, Humboldt 21-27-22-22Forest City 24-25-25-25, Bishop Garrigan 26-14-20-22Garner-Hayfield-Ventura 25-19-25-25, Hampton-Dumont 23-25-23-20Lake Mills 20-25-25-25, North Iowa 25-17-12-12Osage 25-25-25, Rockford 14-12-11Saint Ansgar 21-25-25-25, Northwood-Kensett 25-14-21-23 ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Minnesota Wild defenseman Greg Pateryn has undergone surgery on his midsection and will be out about six more weeks. The operation went as planned in Philadelphia. Pateryn is a seven-year veteran starting his second season with the Wild. He missed most of training camp because of the injury. He had one goal and six assists in 80 games last season
“I mean people are talking about if they are lucky they can make a billion doses in a year,” he adds. “In a week, we can pump out 1.5 billion doses of an antigen, which is the most active component that goes into making a vaccine. It’s a critical component.”Dyadic is working with labs and scientists worldwide on the project.The way it works is those labs share their vaccine gene sequence, which Dyadic places into its hyper-productivity C1 cells.The cells are grown in commercial fermenters, in order to produce the antigen quickly.Data so far indicates that C1 will be effective in vaccine production, according to Emalfarb.While the typical turnaround time for other methods is about 50 days, Emalfarb says commercial fermenters can mass-produce batches of C1 in just 10 to 14 days. Mark Emalfarb, founder and CEO of Dyadic International, which is headquartered in Jupiter, tells West Palm Beach television station WPEC his staff is capable of producing one-billion doses per month.Emalfarb explains that he has spent the last two-and-a-half decades engineering a fungal cell, nicknamed C1, which is now being used in industrial biotech.He goes on to say that it is being further developed to help eventually mass-produce vaccines and drugs in larger quantities at a more affordable cost.“It’s very unique and the hyper-productivity came from a serendipitous mutation,” he says. “This is something that happened by accident, kind of like penicillin.”In addition, Emalfarb believes the technology, which has FDA GRAS approval for food and feed and has already been successfully tested on animals, could lead to mass production of a coronavirus vaccine. A South Florida-based biotech company says it has the science to mass-produce COVID-19 vaccines more quickly and cost effectively than anyone else, when they become available.
England international Meghan MacLaren continued her remarkable US college career with her eighth win on the women’s circuit. She won the Conference USA women’s championship for the second year in a row and the third time in total. The 21-year-old, from Wellingborough in Northamptonshire, scored three-under par at the Verandah Club in Fort Myers, Florida, and was two clear of the field. She’s only the second student at Florida International University to win the title back to back and be a three-time individual conference champion. MacLaren (Image © Leaderboard Photography) flew home after the event to play in this weekend’s Helen Holm Scottish women’s stroke play championship at Troon. She’s teaming up there with fellow international Inci Mehmet (Royal Mid Surrey) to represent England in the Nations Cup. MacLaren is a past winner of the British and Irish stroke play titles and was eighth in the 2016 South American amateur. She is an England and GB&I international and represented Europe in this season’s inaugural Patsy Hankins Trophy against Asia Pacific. She is a member of the England Golf women’s squad. 22 Apr 2016 Meghan’s amazing college career continues with eighth win

Brede Hangeland suffered an Achilles injury in Fulham’s defeat against Manchester United and boss Martin Jol is hoping the defender will not be added to the club’s list of long-term absentees. Hangeland was forced off at the interval after struggling to get through the first half.Jol said: “I’m hoping it is not a long one – he picked up an Achilles problem.“That’s the first time I’ve had to substitute him all season and hopefully it’s not too serious.”See also:Fulham undone by Rooney’s late winner YTo4OntzOjk6IndpZGdldF9pZCI7czoyMDoid3lzaWphLW5sLTEzNTI0NjE4NjkiO3M6NToibGlzdHMiO2E6MTp7aTowO3M6MToiMyI7fXM6MTA6Imxpc3RzX25hbWUiO2E6MTp7aTozO3M6MjI6Ildlc3QgTG9uZG9uIFNwb3J0IGxpc3QiO31zOjEyOiJhdXRvcmVnaXN0ZXIiO3M6MTc6Im5vdF9hdXRvX3JlZ2lzdGVyIjtzOjEyOiJsYWJlbHN3aXRoaW4iO3M6MTM6ImxhYmVsc193aXRoaW4iO3M6Njoic3VibWl0IjtzOjMzOiJTdWJzY3JpYmUgdG8gb3VyIGRhaWx5IG5ld3NsZXR0ZXIiO3M6Nzoic3VjY2VzcyI7czoyODM6IlRoYW5rIHlvdSEgUGxlYXNlIGNoZWNrIHlvdXIgaW5ib3ggaW4gb3JkZXIgdG8gY29uZmlybSB5b3VyIHN1YnNjcmlwdGlvbi4gSWYgeW91IGRvbid0IHNlZSBhbiBlLW1haWwgZnJvbSB1cywgY2hlY2sgeW91ciBzcGFtIGZvbGRlci4gSWYgeW91IHN0aWxsIGhhdmVuJ3QgcmVjZWl2ZWQgYSBjb25maXJtYXRpb24gbWVzc2FnZSwgcGxlYXNlIGUtbWFpbCBmZWVkYmFja0B3ZXN0bG9uZG9uc3BvcnQuY29tIGFuZCB0ZWxsIHVzIHlvdSB3aXNoIHRvIHN1YnNjcmliZSB0byBvdXIgbmV3c2xldHRlci4iO3M6MTI6ImN1c3RvbWZpZWxkcyI7YToxOntzOjU6ImVtYWlsIjthOjE6e3M6NToibGFiZWwiO3M6NToiRW1haWwiO319fQ== Follow West London Sport on TwitterFind us on Facebook
Tom Magnuson at Access Research Network found this link that came out last year but is too good to pass up: another visualization of the bacterial flagellum, the “poster child of the ID movement,” by Japanese researchers on NanoNet, the Nanotechnology Researchers Network Center of Japan. The 02/05/2004 NanoNet Bulletin features the bacterial flagellum with still images from a stunning movie they made, A Rotary Nanomachine, downloadable from the site. The movie contains crisp animations of the flagellar motor at work and features amazing facts about how the propeller is assembled, molecule by molecule, at the growing tip. The film (34 minutes, 36mb) also tells the story of how challenging it was for the team to image the nanometer-scale parts of the system. Another issue, 09/16/2004 NanoNet Bulletin tells how professor Masasuke Yoshido first visualized the rotation of another biomolecular rotary motor, ATP synthase. The entire website is concerned with nanotechnology, and many of the articles blur the distinction between biological and artificial machines.This film makes a terrific follow-up to Unlocking the Mystery of Life for those interested in additional technical details of how the flagellum works. The animations are superb. Nobody would be able to look at this system and say it wasn’t designed – it looks for all the world like finely-crafted machinery. The researchers are in awe of the precision of the parts and the efficiency of the motor. Is it any wonder that there is no mention of evolution? On the contrary, the word design is key: “Looking at the shape of the flagellar basal body,” said Keiici Namba, the interviewee, “it is obviously designed to rotate.” Dr. Namba also said something that shows how biological design can stimulate a Darwin-free research program: “Looking at a picture of the flagellar motor on the wall every day,” he said in Asianized English, “I feel up towards revealing the mystery by any means.” How it works – and what we can learn from the design – those ideas borrow nothing from Darwinian theory, and sound remarkably similar to the motivations of Robert Boyle, James Joule and many other creation scientists throughout history. None of the People of Froth (the Anti-ID crowd) could claim that these Japanese researchers had a religious motivation for making this film or for doing their cutting-edge research. School boards can show this film as proof that design-based science is powerful and productive. The end of science? Bringing science to a halt? Taking us back to the Dark Ages? Bosh—this is the future of active, fruitful, motivating research that will inspire young scientists and bring the best technology to bear on understanding biological realities (see 10/29/2005 story). Intelligent design is not so much about making additions to science, but rather some blessed subtractions: removing the useless fluff of Darwinian speculation and storytelling (12/22/2003) that produces nothing but vaporware on back order. Throughout history (see online book), the design perspective has mastered the machinery of science that produces the goods.(Visited 32 times, 1 visits today)FacebookTwitterPinterestSave分享0
Who was the first black South African to play professional football in Europe? Who’s the most economical bowler in cricket history? Who kicked the most drop- goals ever in a rugby test match? Which sportsman can claim to have suffered the most jet-lag?Take a quick spin through our assortment of South African sports trivia.FOOTBALLPule ‘Ace’ Ntsoelengoe, the midfield general of many fine Kaizer Chiefs teams of the mid-1970s to mid-1980s, was inducted into the US Soccer Hall of Fame in October 2003. One of the North American Soccer League’s all-time leaders for both appearances and goals, “Ace” was voted onto the NASL’s All Star line-up in 1979 and 1982. Former South Africa coach Clive Barker – among many others – rates Ace as perhaps the best player South Africa has ever produced.Long before Lucas Radebe made his mark at Leeds United, becoming “The Chief” in the club’s central defence, there was another South African who served the club with distinction. Albert Johanneson was a left wing who represented the All Whites in 200 matches in the 1960s, netting 68 times.Who is he? He’s had a street in Amsterdam named after him. He’s had a book written and a film made about him. He was the first black South African to play professional football in Europe. After signing for English club Coventry City in 1955, he went on to achieve superstar status playing for Dutch side Heracles and later for Torino in Italy, becoming one of a few players in Europe to earn £10 000 a year. Who is he?RUGBYSpringbok flyhalf Jannie de Beer holds the world record for most dropped goals in a test match. Playing against England in the quarterfinals of the Rugby World Cup in October 1999, De Beer kicked five dropped goals, all in the second half, as South Africa won 44-21. De Beer scored 34 points.From 23 August 1997 to 28 November 1998, the Springboks won 17 successive rugby tests to equal the world record. Their record included three wins against Australia, two wins against New Zealand, two wins against England and two wins against France.Kitch Christie, who coached the Springboks to World Cup success in 1995, was in charge of the Boks for 14 tests. Those matches all ended in victory.Long before South Africa’s first democratic elections in 1994, Errol Tobias sealed his place in South African rugby history by becoming the first black player to start a test match for the Springboks, when he faced Ireland at Newlands on 30 May 1981. He was 31 at the time. In the four matches that Tobias played at flyhalf, South Africa scored 122 points, running in 18 tries, 12 of them by backline players. He played 15 times for the Springboks, including in six Tests – all of which South Africa won.Jonathan Kaplan set a world first by becoming the first referee in the history of rugby to take charge of 50 tests when he took the whistle in the 2009 Six Nations contest between Scotland and Ireland at Murrayfield.CRICKETGraeme Pollock’s test batting average of 60.97 is the second-highest in history, the highest ever by a left hander, and he is one of only four batsmen to average over 60 in a Test career. In February 2009, Pollock was voted into the International Cricket Council’s Hall of Fame as a member of the inaugural class of inductees.Who is he? In just 41 Tests, having made his test debut at the age of 34, he scored 2 484 runs at an average of 40.06, with five centuries and 15 fifties. He also captured 47 wickets at an average 39.55 runs per wicket. He never represented South Africa, yet he was nominated as one of the country’s cricketers of the 20th century. Who is he? Geoff Griffin is the only South African to take a hat-trick in test cricket. He achieved the feat against England at Lords on 23 June 1960. Later in the match he was no-balled for throwing – one of only 11 players to suffer that fate! It proved to be the final test of his career.Among bowlers that played 20 or more tests, South African all-rounder Trevor Goddard is the most economical bowler in history, conceding only 1.64 runs per over.Mike Procter shares the world record with CB Fry and Sir Donald Bradman of scoring six first-class centuries in succession. Showing that he was a fine all-rounder too, Procter is the only cricketer in history to capture two all-LBW hat-tricks.Barry Richards once scored 325 runs in a day, playing for South Australia against Western Australia. He went on to score 356, the highest first-class score by a South African batsman. In January 2009, Richards was inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame as one of the initial 55 players to be honoured.When left-handed opening batsman Gary Kirsten scored 150 against Bangladesh in October 2002, he became the first batsman in test history to score a century against all nine other test-playing countries.And who can forget …? He had shortcomings as a batsman, but was effective and consistent. His third test century was South Africa’s fastest in terms of balls faced. He holds the world record for the most catches – five – by a non- wicketkeeper in a one-day international. Yet his story is definitely not told by his career statistics. Do you remember that run out?Umpire Rudi Koertzen made history on 11 July 2009 when he became the first man to umpire 200 one-day internationals. On 16 July, he became only the second man to stand in 100 tests when he took to the field in the second Ashes test between England and Australia.ATHLETICSReggie Walker won the 100 metres at the Olympic Games in London in 1908 – the only South African, and African, to have won the Olympic 100 metres title.In 1979, Matthews ‘Loop- en-val’ Motshwarateu became the first South African to run the 10 000 metres in under 28 minutes, in one of the most sensational performances in SA athletics history – only three other South Africans have since beaten his time of 27 minutes and 48.2 seconds. “Loop-en-val” was also the first black South African athlete to break a world record, and still holds the SA 10km road record. Check out the full story – and origin of his nickname, which translates as Run and fall.The Comrades, widely regarded as the world’s greatest ultra-marathon, belonged to one man throughout the 1980s. Bruce Fordyce won the event one nine occasions: in 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988 and 1990. He didn’t win in 1989, but then again he didn’t run that year …Two of the biggest names in triathlon history grew up in Durban, South Africa, but never represented the country. Paula Newby-Fraser, representing Zimbabwe, was an eight-time Ironman world champion, while Simon Lessing, representing Great Britain, was a five-time world champion.Okkert Brits is one of only 15 athletes in history to clear six metres in the pole vault. He became the third man in history to achieve the feat when he cleared 6.03m in 1995.BOXINGAfter boxer Brian Mitchell won the WBA junior-lightweight title in 1986, he successfully defended it on 12 occasions before retiring as an undefeated champion. All of his title defences took place outside of South Africa. In December 2008, Mitchell was elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame, the first South African boxer to achieve the honour …… but not the first South African. Boxing referee Stan Christodoulou , only the third man in history to referee more than 100 world title fights, and the first to referee world title fights in all 17 weight categories, was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2004.‘Baby Jake’ Matlala, watched by former President Nelson Mandela and American actor Will Smith, brought the curtain down on a 22-year professional career on 3 March 2002 with a seventh- round stoppage win over Juan Herrera to retain his WBU junior flyweight title. At just 4ft 10in or 147cm – not much taller than the average 3ft 6in or 107cm tall Lord of the Rings hobbit – Baby Jake was the shortest ever world boxing champion.GOLFSouth African golfing legend Gary Player is one of only five players to have won golf’s Grand Slam of the US Masters, US Open, British Open and US PGA titles. Player is also one of only three golfers to win the British Open in three different decades – in 1959, 1968 and 1974. (The other two players to win the Open in three different decades did so in the nineteenth century.)During his career, Player has won 163 tournaments all over the world, jetting an estimated total of 17.5-million kilometres, more than any other athlete in history – and he’s still flying, playing, and winning.Sewsunker ‘Papwa’ Sewgolum played at the same time as Gary Player, but apartheid prevented him from making his mark around the world. How good was he? In 1965, when Player won the US Open, the World Cup Invitational, the South African Open, the Australian Open, the World Series, the World Matchplay and the NTL Challenge Cup, he finished second in the Natal Open. Sewgolum beat him.A self-taught golfer, Sewgolum played the game with a back-handed grip, hands positioned the opposite way to the traditional grip. The unorthodox grip has another name – the Sewsunker grip – named after him, because he used it with such success.Golfer Sally Little first made her mark when she was named the LPGA Rookie of the Year in 1971/72. She went on to win 15 LPGA titles, including three majors, and in 1985 became the LPGA’s twelfth millionaire.SWIMMINGOne-legged swimmer Natalie du Toit made history when she qualified for the final of the 800 metres freestyle at the 2002 Commonwealth Games – the athlete with disability ever to qualify for the final of an international able-bodied event. In 2008, Du Toit became the first athlete with a disability to compete at the Olympic Games, finishing 16th in the 10-kilometre open water event.Breaststroke swimmer Penny Heyns, an Olympic champion at 100 and 200 metres, broke four world records over those distances in the space of two days in July 1999. She went on to set eight world records in 11 races.Karen Muir was voted into Swimming’s Hall of Fame in 1980. She became the youngest ever world record holder in any sport in 1965, at age 12, when she established a new mark in the 110 yards backstroke. She went on to set 15 world records.Terence Parkin is the most successful swimmer in the history of the Deaflympics, accumulating 29 medals in total after the conclusion of the 2009 edition of the Games. In 2000, he won a silver medal in the 200 metres breaststroke at the Sydney Olympic Games. He has also won the Midmar Mile twice.Speaking about the Midmar Mile, it is the world’s largest open water swimming event and is recognised as such by Guinness World Records. It was first held in 1973 because petrol restrictions at that time prevented a group of friends from attending the Buffalo Mile in East London. Now held over two days to accommodate all the swimmers, it has drawn in excess of 17 000 competitors.TENNISBob Hewitt and Frew McMillan won 57 career doubles titles, including three Wimbledon crowns. After teaming up they played 45 matches before they suffered their first loss.Wayne Ferreira was a far greater player than many South Africans gave him credit for, as one little-known fact reveals: he boasted a 6-7 career head-to-head record against Pete Sampras. He also cannot be faulted for perseverance: he ended his career having played in a record 56 Grand Slam tournaments in succession.South Africa has one Davis Cup title to its credit – but not one that it likes to boast about. When India withdrew from the final in 1974 in protest against the South African government’s apartheid policy, South Africa became the winner by default.MOTORSPORTJody Scheckter is the only South African to have won motor racing’s Formula One title. He achieved the feat driving for Ferrari in 1979. The Italian team had to wait another 21 years for their next driver’s title, won by Michael Schumacher.Motorcross star Greg Albertyn made his mark overseas, winning the 125cc world title in 1992, followed by the world 250cc title in 1993 and 1994. He then moved to the United States, where he won the 250cc motorcross title in 1999.South African powerboat racing legend Peter Lindenberg won the national Formula One title 15 times between from 1981 to 2001. He might have won even more titles had he not also competed in the Powerboat Racing World Series.CANOEING AND PADDLE-SKIINGGraeme Pope-Ellis won the tough three-day Dusi Canoe Marathon, contested between Pietermaritzburg and Durban, on 15 occasions, competing in both singles and doubles. Not surprisingly he was known as “the Dusi King”.Paddle-skier Oscar Chalupsky has won the Molokai Challenge, considered the world championship of solo ocean paddling, a record 11 times. Seven of those titles came in succession, from 1983 to 1989.OTHER SPORTSThe Cape Argus Pick n Pay Cycle Tour is the world’s largest individually timed cycling event. It has attracted fields as large as 40 000 competitors.Downhill mountain bike racer Greg Minnaar is a three-time winner of the overall UCI World Cup title, in 2001, 2005, and 2008. He also won the World Championships in 2003. Minnaar has achieved more podium finishes than any downhill rider in World Cup history.Shaun Thomson won the world surfing title in 1977. Maybe a greater claim to fame for the man from Durban is that many regard him as the best tube rider of all time.Striker Pietie Coetzee became the all-time leading goal scorer in women’s international hockey on 21 June 2011 with the third of four goals she scored in a 5-5 draw against the USA in the Champions Challenge in Dublin. It took her to 221 goals, bettering the 20-year-old world record of Russia’s Natalya Krasnikova. She retired from international hockey in June 2014 having scored 282 goals in 287 matches. Incredibly, those figures included a five-year hiatus in the prime of her career to concentrate on her studies.Reg Park won the Mr Universe bodybuilding title in 1958 and 1965. He appeared in movies as Hercules between his two wins, and went on to become Arnold Schwarzenegger’s bodybuilding inspiration.The South African men’s bowls team, playing in the World Bowls Championships on home soil in 1976, achieved the unique feat of winning every single title on offer. Doug Watson was crowned singles champion. He and Bill Moseley won the pairs. Kevin Campbell, Nando Gatti and Kelvin Lightfoot triumphed in the triples, and Campbell, Gatti, Lightfoot and Moseley captured the fours title.Anneli Wucherpfenning (Drummond-Hay) enjoyed a spectacular sporting career in show jumping, winning the sport’s biggest event, the Badminton Trials, by the biggest margin in history. Among her other victories were wins in the British Championships, Bughley Horse Trials, the Imperial Cup, the Queen Elizabeth Cup, and the British Jumping Derby.On the subject of sporting greats who grew up, or at least were born in, South Africa: Gary Anderson, the scorer of the second most points in the history of America’s National Football League (NFL), was born in Parys and raised in Durban. And Steve Nash, the two-time Most Valuable Player in the NBA, was born in Johannesburg.Would you like to use this article in your publication or on your website? See: Using SAinfo material
Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma’s term as the head of the African Union has drawn to a close. No stranger to politics, she held the position for two terms. We look at her career highlights.Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma is the first woman to head the African Union. Her term runs until the end of January 2017. (Image: African Union, Twitter)Brand South Africa reporterShe’s been a freedom fighter, a politician, a diplomat, a doctor and now her latest role as head of the African Union (AU) – the first woman to hold the position – has come to an end. As Chad’s Moussa Faki Mahamat takes the reins at the pan-African organisation, we look back at Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma’s career.On its website, the AU describes Dlamini-Zuma as “a lady of noble character; a visionary leader, with an incredible passion for the African continent, its developmental ambitions, and is a champion of the renewal of Africa”.She had shown depth and understanding about issues dealing with the African continent and had a great grasp of the dynamics of the AU, the organisation said.The strength of Africa lies in its unity and its Pan-Africanism.— Dr Dlamini Zuma (@DlaminiZuma) January 31, 2017Watch:Her early lifeDlamini-Zuma was born during apartheid, on 27 January 1949, in KwaZulu-Natal. But that did not hinder her academic ambitions. She went to the University of Zululand where she read zoology and botany. She graduated with a BSc degree and moved to the University of Natal to begin her medical degree. At the same time, she became involved in South Africa’s liberation struggle.In 1976, she became deputy president of the South African Students Organisation and went into exile.

Dlamini-Zuma was integral to its development.Agenda 2063 is the AU’s vision to build an integrated, prosperous and peaceful Africa, and is viewed as a new phase in efforts by Africans to catalyse development of the continent and strengthen African integration and unity.“It is her biggest deliverable,” said the outgoing EU representative, ambassador Gary Quince. “For the first time, the AU has a blueprint and a vision.”I have no doubt that the in-coming Commission will continue to strengthen & build upon these foundations, just like the foundations we met.— Dr Dlamini Zuma (@DlaminiZuma) January 31, 2017She also focused on gender empowerment within the organisation, and for women in general.“For me and my fellow commissioners, wherever I shall be and in whatever capacity, I shall forever remain soldiers of the African cause,” she tweeted at the end of January.The new leadership of the AU comprises:Elected Leadership of the @_African Union Commission #28thAUSummit pic.twitter.com/nLOkNeQkmQ— African Union (@_AfricanUnion) February 1, 2017Source: African UnionWould you like to use this article in your publication or on your website?

Related Posts Why Tech Companies Need Simpler Terms of Servic… Tags:#Analysis#start A Web Developer’s New Best Friend is the AI Wai… In February, Portland, Oregon Mayor Sam Adams announced the city would put $500,000 towards a seed fund to help encourage regional startups. And on Friday of last week, the Portland Development Commission announced it had finally chosen the five local business leaders to help launch the fund, predicting it would be “open for business” by the fall.Portland isn’t the only city undertaking these sorts of early-stage investments. Last month, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced his city was sponsoring an Entrepreneurial Fund, in a partnership with Firstmark Capital that had over $20 million earmarked to fund startups.Following a rather dour report from the Kauffman Foundation that placed Seattle at the bottom of major metropolitan areas for entrepreneurial activity, the Seattle-based technology blog Techflash asked its readers if Seattle should setup its own, similar early-stage fund.The majority of responses to their poll were negative: the city had better ways to spend its money. And although the economic contribution of a healthy entrepreneurial climate is something that cities want to foster, managing these investments might prove difficult. While a city like New York not only has a sizeable startup fund but has a large community of investors, it remains to be seen how a small, city-run seed fund like Portland has created will impact both the local investment and the local entrepreneurial communities.What do you think? Should cities be in the angel business? What other steps – beyond the usual “tax incentives” – can cities take in order to help foster a strong local startup community?

In 2017, violence against the Rohingya in Burma, also known as Myanmar, forced some 700,000 to flee for their lives. Many remain in neighboring Bangladesh today. This exhibition explores how the Rohingya, a Muslim minority, went from citizens to outsiders—and became targets of a sustained campaign of genocide.
The exhibition features audio, video, photography, and first-person testimony. Guest curator Greg Constantine, a photojournalist, has been documenting the community since 2006.
This installation is funded in part by Todd and Christine Fisher, Robert H. Smith Family Foundation, David Marchick and Pamela Kurland, and Dan K. Wassong.

How much physical activity do you need?
Here are the American Heart Association recommendations for adults.
Fit in 150+
Get at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes per week of vigorous aerobic activity (or a combination of both), preferably spread throughout the week.
Move More, Sit Less
Get up and move throughout the day. Any activity is better than none. Even light-intensity activity can offset the serious health risks of being sedentary.
Moderate to vigorous aerobic exercise is best. Your heart will beat faster, and you’ll breathe harder than normal. As you get used to being more active, increase your time and/or intensity to get more beneﬁts.
Include moderate- to high-intensity muscle-strengthening activity (like resistance or weight training) at least twice a week.
Physical activity is linked with better sleep, memory, balance and cognitive ability.
And less risk of weight gain, chronic disease, dementia and depression. It’s one of the most important things you can do for your health and well-being.
Move more, with more intensity, and sit less.

The political elites must be getting antsy about the upcoming election because they're already coming up with ways to increase their control over the infrastructure and processes that will make it possible.
Since its formation in the aftermath of 9/11, the Department of Homeland Security has wandered well from its original purpose of protecting the US from terrorist attacks and started taking part in the gradual abrogation of Americans' rights. Having classified supporters of conservative candidates as domestic terrorists in the past, DHS is now attempting to top that blatantly inappropriate venture into electoral politics.
For some time now, the department has been murmuring about designating the presidential election as a “critical infrastructure.” Such a designation would grant the federal government even more influence over the voting process, to say nothing of its results, and now that the FBI is on the alert after two cyberattacks on election boards, we may be much closer to this actually happening.

Parasites of the Pigeonpea Podfly Melanagromyza obtusa (Malloch) in India
In a survey of parasites on the pigeonpea podfly. Mefanagromyza obtuse (Malloch) (Diptera: Agromyzidae) in India, six genera-Euderus (Eulophidae). Eupelrnus (Eupelmidae), Eurytoma, Plutarchia (Eurytomidae), Anusrrophoplex (Torymidae) and Ormyrus (Ormyridae) were recorded during 1977-83. Data on monthly overall parasitism revealed peaks during February-March. when the pest populations are also usually high. In a two year (1980-82) study at ICRISAT Center, Euderus and Ormyrus were found to be the dominant parasites on M. obtusa. Difference in extent of parasitism was observed between samples from two pigeonpea cultlvars- ICP 1 and HY 3C, which was probably related to host abundance. Surveys revealed that the genera - Euderus and Ormyrus are also dominant and widely spread in India and these should be conserved. The possibility of augmentation is also mentioned.

Challenges are Sure to Come
“Into each life some rain must fall.” —Allan Roberts
Yep, it’s true. No one goes through this world unscathed. Troubles are sure to fall like rain, whether we want them or not. So, if that’s the case, how should we respond?
As far as I can tell, there are only three ways. (If you can think of more, please enlighten me in the comments). You can either resist them by pretending they don’t exist, fight them angrily (blaming others in the process), or accept them, letting the challenges wash over you, knowing that somehow, they will transform you into a better person.
Challenges Are For Our Good
But, accepting them is not so easy, is it? We want to squirm out of them, side step them or squash them, right? If we are a child of God, though, we know He has a plan for our lives, and ultimately, our goal is to reflect our Father.
Sometimes, He uses the ‘controlled burn’ to conform us. Just enough challenges to kill the wayward parts like impatience and jealousy, so new seed can grow into hardy plants that will bear a good harvest (remember the fruits of the spirit?)
Not only do trials make us more like Christ, but when we accept them and allow them to strengthen our faith, in the end, it will bring honor His name. Check out the verses below. . .
1 Peter 1:6-7
Occasionally, we are the reason for the hard times. I know I have used a harsh word in the past, or avoided the truth when asked. I’ve even been jealous or critical, which leads to discontent and depression. No one sees it, of course, but Jesus does. He knows what’s in my heart. And at times, it’s not pretty—and I’m sure it makes Him sad.
Challenges Make Us Stronger
How many of us pray for challenges and trials? Scary idea, eh? But, consider this--we can speed up our goal of being Christ-like by putting ourselves into a situation that requires trust in our Heavenly Father. When everything is going well, why would we need to call out to Jesus?
I have done this a few times in my life. Sometimes, it’s being brave to talk with and editor or agent about my latest project. Other times it’s stepping out in faith, literally, as I walk across a mile-high swinging bridge, or climb a ladder like the one below. You see, I’m afraid of heights. But I was determined to move forward in faith. And I’m glad I did!
I’m not sure if it’s my age (I’m less intimidated), or that my desire to be conformed to Christ’s image is front and center in my heart right now. That, too, could be due to my age, since I have more years behind me that ahead of me.
This nomad journey has at times been a challenge. My time isn’t my own. Neither is my space. And don’t even talk about the issue of mail delivery when we move every few weeks. It’s a nightmare! One thing is for sure. I will appreciate our townhome So, Much. More. when our nomad life is done.
Whoa. I just thought of something. After dealing with this earthly life and our sinful nature all our lives, it will be So. Incredibly. Amazing. to finally step into Heaven and know we are FINALLY HOME and free of all that hinders us!

What's your favorite song? We asked Pinedrop's Derek Sensale
What's your favorite folk song?
Something by Bob Dylan, maybe "Boots of Spanish Leather."
What's your favorite bluegrass song?
That's always a hard one. There is just so much to pick from ... a really cool song is called "Fox on the Run." I'm not 100-percent positive who wrote it [Tony Hazzard], but I'm pretty sure this guy named Tom T. Hall made it famous.
What's your favorite song that tells a story?
There's a song by the Grateful Dead called "Bird Song." [It's a] really beautiful song, kind of unlike a lot of the regular Grateful Dead stuff. I actually just learned today that it's about the passing of Janis Joplin. I thought that was really cool. I've known that song for a while and never [known] what it's about.
What's your favorite current pop song?
That's on the radio?
I don't know if you consider it pop, but there's a new Dr. Dog song that I've been hearing on The River called "Heart Killer."
What's your favorite hip-hop song?
Probably "Check the Rhime" by A Tribe Called Quest.
What's your favorite song to dance to?
I'm a big dancer when it comes to anything by the Talking Heads. I really like "Cross-eyed and Painless."
What's your favorite song to belt out in the car?
Currently, I guess, it would be "No Hard Feelings" by The Avett Brothers — a real good belter.
What's your favorite song to perform live?
An original or a cover?
It could be either.
We do this three-song bit, and it's "Time" by Pink Floyd, and then one of our original songs called "Home Again," and then "Codeine" by Trampled by Turtles.

"What happened to the passion we started with?
Why aren't we as close as we used to be?"
PROBLEM: If you are a woman who is unfulfilled in your marriage...if you feel unheard or overburdened...if you quietly live in a state of slow-burn resentment...

This book offers a solution
Bestselling author and nationally renowned therapist Terrence Real unearths the causes of communication blocks between men and women in this groundbreaking work. Relationships are in trouble; the demand for intimacy today must be met with new skills, and Real -- drawing on his pioneering work on male depression -- gives both men and women those skills, empowering women and connecting men, radically reversing the attitudes and emotional stumbling blocks of the patriarchal culture in which we were raised. Filled with powerful stories of the couples Real treats, no other relationship book is as straight talking or compelling in its innovative approach to healing wounds and reconnecting partners with a new strength and understanding.
"Real is attuned to the characteristics of contemporary marriages and demonstrates insight into both male and female perspectives....This is a well-balanced and exciting new addition to the marriage-manual genre." Publishers Weekly
Drawing on his experience with hundreds of couples, the author of the bestselling I Don't Want to Talk About It explains how both men and women can escape the roles tradition has assigned them and develop the skills that lead to intimacy learning how to hold the relationship in regard and how to speak, listen, negotiate, and stay on course.

Pre-game on the Iran meeting.
The United States intends to lay out a comprehensive account of Iran's growing military role in Iraq -- including the array of arms provided to both Shiite and Sunni militias -- during critical talks between U.S. and Iranian diplomats scheduled for tomorrow in Baghdad, according to senior U.S. officials.
Ryan C. Crocker, the U.S. ambassador in Baghdad, will also outline steps Iran could take to help stabilize war-ravaged Iraq, both politically and militarily. Any subsequent meeting will depend on the quality of the dialogue and Iran's cooperation in the coming weeks, the sources added.
"If the meeting is productive and there's a promise that these meetings will be worthwhile, we'll agree to a second meeting," said a senior administration official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the delicate diplomacy.
However, the Bush administration enters the dialogue with limited leverage, analysts said.
"Iran has every advantage in these talks -- in geography, demography and time -- and they know it. Iran has better relations with every political party, militia and warlord in the Shiite and Kurdish communities than we do. It has the best intelligence apparatus in Iraq. And it has the advantage of a religious relationship with the majority population that is unique," said Bruce Riedel, a Middle East expert at the Brookings Institution.
Negotiations are not about facts, they are about leverage.
Two other notable moves from the US side coming into this meeting.
1) The "leak" of a presidential finding authorizing nonlethal covert efforts to destabilize Iran.
2) The dismantling of the Iran-Syria operations group.
Reading between the lines, it sounds like the Bush administration wanted the Iranians to know that the Iran hawks were no longer running the show.
Also: The US and British conduct more very public operations against Moqtada al Sadr's Mahdi Army.

The original 1947 plan for Galesburg Country Homes contained twenty-one circular homesites, each one acre in area. Of the four Wright homes built here, three follow the Usonian Automatic concept and employ “in-line” plans. The Eric and Pat Pratt House (1950–1951; 1951–1954 addition) at 11036 Hawthorne Drive is long and low and opens to the south, away from the road. The Samuel and Dorothy Eppstein House (1951–1953; mid-1950s south end), at number 11090, has a dramatic two-story living area shielded from the road by a semicircular retaining wall. The David I. and Christine Weisblat House (1951; 1961 addition, John Howe and Wesley Peters), at number 11185, is protected from the road by a berm but opens onto the rolling park land to the north and west through French doors in the living room. The homeowners worked closely with those building houses at Parkwyn Village ( KZ22), even sharing the molds for concrete blocks. The remaining house, designed for Curtis and Lillian Meyer and built in 1950–1951 at number 11108, is a solar hemicycle design. Naturalistic landscaping frames each of the circular lots.

FITCHBURG – A group of people connected to the city recently joined NeighborWorks America’s Community Action Center in Charlotte, North Carolina to focus on moving forward after the pandemic. and help those who need it most.
The theme of the event is “Make Your Mark: No Limits,” which according to the organization, provides a platform to gather with community leaders from around the country. support, heal, connect, and celebrate all that has been overcome since the COVID-19 pandemic. Leaders in Charlotte and across the country have shared how they are working in their communities to continue change despite and because of the restrictions of the pandemic.
“It’s a very positive impact,” said Fitchburg Public Schools Family and Community Engagement Coordinator Luisa Fernandez. “I had a wonderful experience learning about what other communities are doing in terms of housing, education, food insecurity, arts and culture, and diversity and inclusion. It It’s also beautiful to witness the support of some of the participants, despite their difficulties and limited language, and many young people participate.”
The mission of NeighborWorks America is to create opportunities for people to improve their lives and strengthen their communities.
As an interactive and grant-making non-profit organization with participating organizations in all states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, it supports organizations that provide communities with sustainable housing. budget, financial consulting and training, training, and community participation, and regional cooperation. of health, work, and education.
In 2021, $101.2 million in donations was distributed through its annual appropriation and in the same year NeighborWorks network members announced more than $16.8 billion in investments in their communities.
Fernandez joined five others for the national conference: NewVue Communities, Inc. Director of Community Engagement Francisco Ramos, Empowering Children for Success, Inc. President and CEO Marites MacLean, local artist Shara Osgood, who has been the lead muralist for many cities. projects, InTown Fitchburg Downtown Community Coordinator Monique Reverie, and Fitchburg Art Museum Vice President of Advancement and Administration Rebecca Wright.
“We play different roles in the community,” said Fernandez, “We all volunteer in different projects and causes but something that resonates with us is love for Fitchburg, and the vision of transforming our city into a better place for individuals and families to raise their families, work and play.”
MacLean said her experience with NeighborWorks online training inspired her to attend the conference because she knew she would “be able to develop new skills to use to improve the lives of the citizens we serve in Fitchburg.”
“We see that we have to speak for ourselves and tell our own stories,” he said. “We need to find a way for people in our community to come out and tell their stories. No one can tell us our stories. I’ve learned that hunger is a important problem in our society and the programs that address this problem take a group approach. The problem is always there, and we need to solve it at the base.”
Osgood said that for him, the conference experience as a whole was “very inspiring.”
“I met a lot of community leaders from all over the country and got some great tools and ideas to help move our city forward,” he said. “I’m excited to bring these skills to help support and empower our community. We can amplify our voices and build a stronger community.”
Reverie shared his thoughts, saying “it was a great experience to attend … and learn how to better myself and support my community.”
“Meeting people who are making a positive impact throughout the city is exciting,” he said. “Struggles and injustices that we all face are the same, so it is important for me to learn from my friends. It was a great experience, I learned a lot, and I was inspired to bring something back home that would help make a difference in my community. “
Ramos said that he thinks that the city and the region “heal a little from the development of leadership in other places and because of this it is important to go out to other cities and learn from other experiences and other efforts.”
“We came back inspired to apply what we learned, and we are committed to continuing to learn and improve in the future,” he said.
Wright said they all “came back with a lot of energy and enthusiasm to create positive change in Fitchburg and North Central Mass,” and said the conference “was a very powerful learning experience. from and share ideas with grassroots communities from around the world. countries.”
The group, who called themselves the ‘Charlotte 6,’ received $4,000 in NeighborWorks grants.
“We are very happy to bring home money for a community project that we have already planned together,” Fernandez said, adding that the group will meet this week to decide whether where the money will be distributed. “We know it will be a project that directly affects the minorities and the most vulnerable people in our city.”

Early Nitzer Ebb video material surfacesPosted on 30/09/08
Chris Piper, Nitzer Ebb's first producer and manager, has released early live video material (from around 1984) of Nitzer Ebb playing such rare songs as "Faded Smiles" and "Shade of Pale" on YouTube. Both tracks were filmed during one of Nitzer Ebbs first gigs in Romford England. "Faded Smiles" was originally on the demo tape "Basic Pain Procedure" (1983) which was produced by Piper. From this demo (which can be streamed right here) only "Crane" appeared on a later record. "Shade of Pale" on the other hand apparently would only have been played once by the band and it is his one time experience that is now available. Chris Piper who also ran Power of Voice Communication, the band's first label, left the band just before the big break through for Nitzer Ebb.

PLEASE NOTE: I'm rarely active here anymore, but please feel free to follow me on Goodreads, where I post regularly.
These are the chronicles of a book addict, a photo junkie, and an aspiring author, rewriting the very fabric of reality one page (and one snapshot) at a time. From the strange to the unusual; the abandoned to the abnormal; the haunted to the historic; the supernatural to the surreal; the forests of dark fantasy, the cemeteries of gothic horror, and the post-apocalyptic ruins of science fiction are the landscapes of my imagination.
There is absolutely no doubt that The Whispering Swarm is technically brilliant. The complex interplay of autobiography, real-life history, invented mythology, and pulp adventure is, really, quite stunning to behold. Never before have I seen so many genres and themes at play within the same text, all of them having a significant role within the overall story. While it's bewildering at times, the literary mastery of Michael Moorcockensures that it's never too dense or too confusing to hold the reader within the magical, mythical, marvelous walls of the tale.
With all that said, the emphasis here is largely on the autobiographical side of things, and that's where the story stumbles. Written entirely in the first person, here we have a relatively dry, straightforward, matter-of-fact presentation of a young man's life, as remembered (and, often, reinvented) by his older self. It has a rambling, stream-of-consciousness feel to it at times, with certain details explored at length, and others inexplicably glossed over. For instance, while it is interesting to understand how Moorock got his start in the business, and it's even fascinating to get a first-hand look at the process of writing, editing, and printing early fanzines and magazines, there's a point at which you really wish he'd just move on. At the same time, things like finding his true love are glossed over in a matter of pages, with the young woman never getting so much as a line of dialogue.
Now, back to the history/mythology aspect of the book, and the adventure it inspires. Alsatia is a mythological refuge of the White Friars, defenders of history's greatest treasures (both real and imagined). Most people are completely ignorant of their existence, and simply cannot see the massive old gates leading into a secret heart of London. Untouched by fire, famine, plague, or war, the refuge has stood strong against the years, with those inside living a multiverse kind of life that touches on random times and places in the outside world. It is, by far, the best part of the tale, especially when historical figures living in an alternate timeline lay siege to Alsatia, dragging Moorock into a battle across time.
There is so much promise in the premise of Alsatia, but I was truly disappointed to find that Moorock refrained from interweaving the multiverse here with that of theEternal Champion. I remember getting to the chapter titled The Lost Albino and getting ridiculously excited by the prospect of seeing Moorcock and Elric cross paths, even if it was just to have some albino swordsman pass through Alsatia to inspire the character. Alas, such interplay is not to be found here, and the chapter really glosses over the creation of his greatest character with some cold, bored declarations that he only intended one story, but fans demanded another, then another, then another.
Ultimately, it is an interesting tale, but I fear it's too long, too dry, and too autobiographical for all but Moorcock's most avid fans. The moments of adventure and excitement are simply too few and too far between. At the same time, the narrative style does nothing to help propel the story forward. Moorock has proven in the past that he can do first-person well, but it's as if he played it too safe here, trying to remain true to his own voice. Like I said, The Whispering Swarm is technically brilliant, but it's a hard book to enjoy.

Eco/K1 Coils (5-Pack)
Replacement coils for the K1, P18, and G18 tanks. These are the newer 1.8 ohm version with larger airflow holes. We recommend you operate them between 3.5V - 4.3V, or 7W - 11W. Any higher may reduce coil life dramatically.

transaction, no matter how large or complicated the transaction being spent was. Since segwit cant fix the problem, it settles on not making it worse: in particular, rather than introducing an independent limit for the segregated witness data, instead a single limit is applied to the weighted sum of the utxo data and the witness data, allowing. But in a system with third-party malleability, wallets must implement extra code to be able to deal with changed txids. This provides the same functionality more efficiently, so that large transactions can still be generated without running into problems due to signature hashing, even if they are generated maliciously or much larger blocks (and therefore larger transactions) are supported. We're Gauging Market Interest. People who run upgraded wallets will be able to take advantage of the increased block size by moving signatures to the witness section of the transaction. However adding the second constraint makes finding a good solution very hard in some cases, and this theoretical problem has been exploited in practice to force blocks to be mined at a size well below capacity. Finding the most profitable set of transactions to include in a block given a single limit is an instance of the knapsack problem, which can be easily solved almost perfectly with a simple greedy algorithm. With scriptSig malleability removed, it also stiftung warentest binäre optionen becomes possible to run lightweight Lightning clients that outsource monitoring the blockchain, instead of each Lightning client needing to also be a full Bitcoin node. Segwit prevents third-party and scriptSig malleability by allowing Bitcoin users to move the malleable parts of the transaction into the transaction witness, and segregating that witness so that changes to the witness does not affect calculation of the txid.
Currently there are two consensus-enforced limits on blocksize: the block can be no larger than 1MB and, independently, there can be no more than 20,000 signature checks performed across the transactions in the block. Segwit resolves this by explicitly hashing the input value. Upgraded users can withdraw anytime at no minimum balance requirements. If we follow that theory through, its hardly surprising that BTU has already caused made such an impact in just three months. Even if the fork does not take place on 11/2 as planned, growing congestion on the BTC network means that the implementation of a hard fork appears to be only a matter of time.

Fraud proofs allow SPV users to help enforce Bitcoins consensus rules, which will potentially greatly increase the security of the Bitcoin network as a whole, as well as reduce the ways in which individual users can be attacked. New nodes, which understand the full block with witness data, are therefore free to replace this limit with a new one, allowing for larger block sizes.

Scott wins First AND Second place prize in regional law enforcement dissertation contest
1977 Clever Industries holding company founded
Scott Douglas Redmond Produced a large number of major urban electro-optical programs for millions of live and webcast participants. These programs set many event and technical records for “firsts”. Scott directed, designed, developed and engineered these presentations. His ‘LUMIASCAPE’ series of major public light-events set numerous records for “firsts” and scale-of-deployment. His light events included lasers, pyrotechnics and custom-built searchlight and xenon systems. “LIGHTS1” was, as far as anyone has seen, the first urban simulcast light concert viewed by over one million people. The City of San Francisco gave him total control of the entire mountain-top in the middle of San Francisco. The Mayor gave him a proclimation for the project. He received one of the first public laser licenses from the FDA and was the first person to ever write on the mountain, known as Twin Peaks, with a laser beam. He was the Laserist for the San Francisco Symphony Pops Concerts and was conducted by John Williams for the Star Wars concert. One New Year’s eve he lit City Hall red (Another first-time-ever) and fired beam projectors from the apex. He was the first person to light Coit Tower with xenon searchlights. He produced the lighting of the Palace of Fine Arts that convinced the City of San Francisco to make the lighting a permanent feature of that historical architectural wonder. He provided solid lighting effects for a number of stage shows. His productions included: LIGHTS; The Royal Fireworks For Queen Elizabeth, The Palace Of Fine Arts Lighting; The Cow Palace Stage Extravaganza and more…

Mark Zuckerberg was pooping in his diapers and had no idea what ‘VR’ or ‘Metaverse‘s’ even meant. Meanwhile Scott was awarded many federal patents as inventor of VR and VR glasses. (FYI – Jaron only invented a glove)
Scott is held hostage at San Francisco Bank of America, in Glen Park neighborhood, during armed robbery and assists police.
Scott Douglas Redmond was the Founding Producer For The Bay To Breaker Footstock festivals and concerts. Footstock was a 200,000+ person rapid-built city, concert and public event like Woodstock. Scott produced it for over a decade on 2.5 million square feet of space in San Francisco. Stage acts included: Ray Charles (in his last outdoor super concert), Tower of Power, Robin Williams and more. Scott had to erect a portable city that had all of the resources for up to 200,000 people (Power, water, security, sanitation, staffing, operations, food & water distribution, promotional distribution, booth operations, staging, clean-up, structures, etc.) in 7 days, operate it for one day and then make it all disappear, like it was never there, in 48 hours. The entire race was “the largest race in the world” for a number of years. Scott Douglas Redmond produced Ooe of Ray Charles Last Outdoor Concerts here. It was presented for 200,000+ live audience members in the San Francisco Polo Fields.

A 1998 memo written by al-Qaida military chief Mohammed Atef reveals that Osama bin Laden’s group had detailed knowledge of negotiations that were taking place between Afghanistans ruling Taliban and American government and business leaders over plans for a U.S. oil and gas pipeline across that Central Asian country. The e-mail memo was found in 1998 on a computer seized by the FBI during its investigation into the 1998 African embassy bombings, which were sponsored by al-Qaida. Atef’s memo was discovered by FBI counter-terrorism expert John O’Neill, who left the bureau in 2001, complaining that U.S. oil interests were hindering his investigation into al-Qaida. O’Neill, who became security chief at the World Trade Center, died in the Sept. 11 attack. This led to the Afghan mining corruption for electric car minerals.
September 11, 2001, For 50 minutes, from 8:15 AM until 9:05 AM, with it widely known within the FAA and the military that four planes have been simultaneously hijacked and taken off course, no one notifies the President of the United States. It is not until 9:30 that any Air Force planes are scrambled to intercept, but by then it is too late. This means that the National Command Authority waited for 75 minutes before scrambling aircraft, even though it was known that four simultaneous hijackings had occurred, an event that has never happened in history. [Sources: CNN, ABC, MS-NBC, The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times.] Afghanistan at that time was targeted for rare earth mining by Big Tech oligarchs. 2 of Scott’s business associates were in the planes and one was in the towers, including Daniel M. Lewin, Co-Founder and CTO of Akamai who had been in partnership discussions with Scott for Scott’s video patents.

Scott and his team were awarded a Congressionally mandated multi million dollar-value contract in the Iraq War. He produced vehicle systems, energy production and storage technologies created by Scott Douglas Redmond. Scott won numerous federal patent awards, Congressional awards, innovation awards, federal grants and broke energy storage records. Scott’s projects have rebuilt or ground-up constructed numerous vehicles. He was awarded the seminal patents for solid-state fuel cell energy storage and distribution for Honda, Toyota, KIA and BMW fuel cell cars. He was awarded Congressional funding in the Iraq War Bill to help build America’s next-generation energy system. Scott’s vehicles had the highest calculated fuel efficiency in the world, the lowest cost-to- manufacture, the lowest selling price, the most attractive debt-ratio, the highest safety factor, the most hires of laid off Detroit factory workers and executives and the biggest volume of sales order requests! His vehicle and energy companies were financed by himself, the federal government, Autodesk and other major partners. Government labs evaluated Scott’s technologies and wrote technical white papers confirming that they beat all other alternative energy storage technologies on over 50 metric comparisons. Scott Douglas Redmond and his Team designed and built numerous pressure-membrane air structures for aerospace and vehicular uses.
The U.S. Department of Energy, via a Congressional order in the Federal Register, Contracts Scott and his Team to design the electric car that beats every other EV on price, safety, range, no offshore dependency, and all other metrics. He does it, but Tesla, the Senators that own Tesla (Yes, politicians own the companies they are in charge of regulating but THE STOCK ACT, in Congress, will fix that) and Detroit go nuts with anti-trust law violations because his car obsoletes their CAR-tel monopoly. He contracts most of the Detroit car builders and NASA engineers that got laid off in the down-turn.
Amazon buys Whole Foods and workers and public get nothing out of it except: “screwed” and spied on re: their buying habits
Scott and his associates sued the Dept of Energy for corruption, cronyism and insider trading scams. This first-of-its-kind action got the Secretay of Energy and the Attorney General fired, created a huge number of federal investigations, documented all of the crooked politicians in global media, created new anti-corruption laws and won Scott a Federal Remand award.
