Secular Missionaries: Americans and African Development in the 1960s (Culture, Politics, and the Cold War)
In 1961, as President John F. Kennedy proclaimed the beginning of a Decade of Development, the United States embarked on its first coherent Africa policy.

In 1961, as President John F. Kennedy proclaimed the beginning of a Decade of Development, the United States embarked on its first coherent Africa policy. Guided by the precepts of modernization theory, American policymakers, diplomats, academics, and Peace Corps volunteers were dispatched to promote economic growth and nation-building among the newly independent countries of sub-Saharan Africa. At the outset, Larry Grubbs shows, many of these secular missionaries were no less sanguine about their prospects for success than were their Christian predecessors a century earlier. But before long their optimism gave way to disillusionment, as rosy forecasts of sustained development collided with African political realities and colonial economies based on single-commodity exports subject to global price fluctuations.In this book, Grubbs presents a cultural history of this ill-fated American campaign to modernize Africa during its first decade of independence. Drawing on government documents and contemporary press accounts as well as an extensive body of scholarship on U.S.-Africa relations, he exposes the contradictions at the core of a self-serving idealism that promised to win the continent of Africa for the West in the context of the Cold War. While many Americans working in Africa considered themselves opponents of ethnocentrism, the modernization goals they served carried an ingrained, if unacknowledged, cultural and ideological sense of superiority and faith in American exceptionalism. Similarly, persistent myths about African backwardness and primitiveness continued to afflict U.S. policy, despite official pronouncements of confidence in the transformative power of Western expertise and can-do pragmatism in bringing African societies into the modern world. If the assumptions underlying U.S. policy toward Africa during the 1960s were simply relics of outmoded Cold War orthodoxies, that would be one thing. Unfortunately, Grubbs concludes, many of the same ideas imbue contemporary discussions of the ongoing crisis in Africa, from the campaigns to Save Darfur and stop the spread of AIDS to efforts to eliminate blood diamonds and forgive African debts.

What Soft Landing?The yo-yoing stock markets of 2000 may suggest otherwise, but a prominent economic forecaster says this year may end up as the most buoyant Buoyant
The term used to describe a commodities market where the prices generally rise with ease when there are considerable signals of strength.
These types of markets can be very volatile as the prices are rapid to rise and fall with investor sentiment. he's seen in 30 years of predicting productivity and growth. Dr. James F. Smith at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is a public, coeducational, research university located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, United States. Also known as The University of North Carolina, Carolina, North Carolina, or simply UNC -- deemed the nation's most accurate economic forecaster in three of the past five years by The Wall Street Journal -- says that the near-term outlook is "marvelous."

Often referred to as "constant-price", "inflation-corrected" GDP or "constant dollar GDP". (gross domestic product) growth several times, and are now doing it again," he said in late summer. "This has been driven by the wonderful gains in productivity, which seem likely to persist." GDP GDP (guanosine diphosphate): see guanine. growth should surpass 5 percent this year, Smith says, the highest since 1984.
Smith zeroes in on a couple of intriguing trends: productivity gains and higher education higher education
Study beyond the level of secondary education. Institutions of higher education include not only colleges and universities but also professional schools in such fields as law, theology, medicine, business, music, and art. . Productivity, which was largely stagnant in the years 1973-1991, rose at a 1.4 percent annual clip in the next five years and has been running at double that rate since then. While he says the cause is a mystery -- although many observers cite high-tech gains, especially the surge of the Internet -- Smith says that if the current 2.9 percent annual productivity gain can be maintained, long-term sustainable economic growth in the U.S. could stay at 4 percent.
As for education, he notes that the percentage of high school graduates going to college, 67 percent, is the highest ever. That bodes well for the economy and for economic spending, since college grads consistently earn more than high school graduates and have a lower unemployment rate.

As theorist Susan Sontag predicted nearly forty years ago, much of our modern way of life is organized around capturing the perfect, most sharable photograph, often at the expense of genuine and authentic experience. Samsung’s What Matters Most campaign (#mattersmostNX), which was released in conjunction with their new NX camera, brought us back to the core of what photography is really about: remembering unforgettable moments shared with those we care about.
Samsung teamed up with twelve photographers, each with their own unique vision and passions, who regularly shared photos that capture how they view what matters most to them, with subjects ranging from their own children to the wonderfully unfamiliar species of our oceans. In addition to their online showcase of these exquisite captures, Samsung also invited the public to participate in the What Matters Most open photography competition. You can see the result of the competition via #mattersmostNX on Samsung’s Instagram.
Of all the photographers who participated in the campaign, no one artist embodies the spirit of What Matters Most more than renowned Magnum photographer Alex Webb, the campaign’s celebrity photographer. After beginning his career as a young black-and-white street photographer in the American South, Webb traveled to the Mexico-US border, Haiti, and the Caribbean, beginning in the late 1978s, where he captured the world in brilliant and resounding color. His iconic images have been published in eleven monographs, been exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and The Whitney Museum, and have appeared in the pages of Time, The New York Times, National Geographic, Life magazine, and more. Other distinguished participants in the campaign included photographers Ali Jardine, Chris Ozer, Dave Engledow, Altug Galip, Halno, KD Kupier, Louis Cole Mike Kus, Elena Kalis, Theron Humphrey and Simone Bramante.
With its release, the Samsung NX1 camera brings with it a new era of professional innovation. Featuring Samsung’s fastest and strongest image processor yet, the DRIMe V, the camera enables users shoot with unprecedented accuracy even in low light conditions. The NX AF System III uses an autofocus of .055s, 153 cross type sensors, and 205 Phase Detection AF points for crystal clear focus, and in addition to producing photos without noise at an ISO of 25600, the camera also supports an ISO as high as 51200. The NX1’s 28MP sensor captures more details than the standard 20MP, allowing users to crop images without sacrificing quality.
Video shot on the NX1 is captured in 4K, delivering 4 times the resolution found in Full HD video while taking up minimal memory space. Continuous shooting features allow users to shoot up to 70 frames at a time at the lightning speed of 15 shots per second, each with a resolution of 28MP. In fast-paced sports scenarios, the groundbreaking Samsung Auto Shoot uses a predictive algorithm to trace the subject’s movement and release the shutter at just the right moment.
In addition to introducing multiple autofocus features, the NX1 is compact and easy to use. Made from sturdy magnesium alloy and designed to be dust and rain resistant, the camera includes an intuitive LCD status display and the OLED Electronic View Finder, enabling users to compose the perfect shot while having the ability to easily monitor settings. With Wi-Fi and Bluetooth sharing features, the NX1 allows users not only to capture what matters most to us, but also empowers us to share those moments worldwide.

Dental Waste Management Guidelines
Is your dental practice following dental waste management guidelines? It doesn’t matter whether you’re a member of the dental group, an oral surgeon, or run an independent facility in a rural region. Every dentist in every province throughout Canada must follow federal guidelines as well as provincial and regional guidelines when it comes to dental waste segregation and disposal practices.
In broad terms, dental waste management includes considerations for any waste produced in a dental office. That goes from any chemical used in the process of x-ray technologies to use of disinfectants, as well as identification and proper disposal of amalgam, mercury, silver and other heavy metals used in dental care scenarios. In fact, considerations for dental amalgam and mercury waste are the focus of many governmental regulations.
TOPICS WE WILL COVER:
What do Mercury and Amalgam Have to do With One Another?
As early as 1845, the American Society of Dental Surgeons attempted to adopt a ruling that required that its members not use amalgam. It was learned that mercury, the main component of the amalgam, is toxic. Interestingly, the Society declined to adopt that resolution. The issue didn’t come up again until the 1980s when countries around the world started to phase out its use due to increased medical studies – and complaints.
In Canada, dental filling materials such as dental amalgam, are classified as a medical device, found under the Medical Devices Regulations of the Food and Drugs Act. However, authority for enforcement only refers to the sale of medical devices and not how they’re used by healthcare providers. In fact, in 1994, dental filling materials were specifically excluded from medical devices subjected to pre-market reviews by medical devices regulations.
Mercury is a byproduct of amalgam. According to Canadian Health Services, vapours of mercury are stimulated and released from filling surfaces by chewing and other impact-like actions of the teeth. Over time, that vapour is inhaled into the lungs or swallowed in saliva. In some cases, mercury particles can expose an individual to toxicity if embedded in soft tissues of the mouth. However, the risk to humans and animals is considered extremely minimal, but Canada and other countries around the globe are aware of the environmental aspects of improper amalgam dental waste disposal and have taken steps to reduce risks.
Dental Amalgam- A Very Brief Glimpse at Regulatory Guidelines
In 1999, the Canadian Environmental Protection Act declared that mercury is a toxic substance and that any wastes containing mercury, including dental amalgam, be classified as hazardous waste (Ontario regulation 347). At the time, limitations were placed on the limits of mercury or other heavy materials allowed to enter wastewater streams.
In 2005, Environment Canada published the Dental Wastes Best Management Practice Guide. The guide provides advice for the disposal of a number of dental wastes, including mercury, silver, lead, and biomedical and pathological anatomical and non-anatomical wastes. The guide also includes detailed regulatory recommendations for federal, provincial, as well as municipal governments.
In 2010, Environment Canada also required that dental offices throughout Canada implement a pollution prevention plan that focused on mercury releases from dental amalgam waste. In addition to use of amalgam waste separators, amalgam waste, as it’s deemed a hazardous waste, is required to be recycled or disposed of through a certified hazardous waste management carrier.
The majority of dental practitioners today segregate scrap (contact or non-contact) amalgam due to specifications of their waste carriers.
In provinces throughout Canada, legislation has required dental practices that work with dental amalgam to repair, place or remove from teeth “to install and maintain a dental amalgam separator that meets or exceeds the ISO dental equipment amalgam separators standard.”
Rules to follow include:
- Segregating contact amalgam (amalgam that has been in a patient’s mouth) from non- contact amalgam (which has not been placed in a patient’s mouth).
- Separating unused or broken capsules that can be managed as non-contact amalgam and collect in airtight and break-resistant containers. Properly label container as non-contact amalgam for waste carrier pickup.
- Non-contact amalgam is not to be placed into “regular” garbage bags or bins nor washed down drains or placed into biomedical waste containers.
Contact scrap amalgam is to be connected to amalgam separators that meet or exceed ISO 11143 standards. Standard precautions should be in place. Chair-side traps and filters are to be airtight and non-breakable. Containers must be labelled as “contact amalgam”.
A number of cautions were also put into place in regard disposal of scrap contact amalgam:
- Contact amalgam waste is not to be placed in the same container as a biomedical waste
- Traps and filters are not to be rinsed in sinks due to the possibility of amalgam particles being discharged into sewer lines. Dental facilities connected to septic systems are not allowed to discharge amalgam wastewater into the septic system without first removing amalgam waste with the amalgam separator.
- Avoid wiping traps or filters with paper towels or any other materials, as this serves to create additional contaminated waste.
Be aware that an empty amalgam capsule is currently classified as a non-hazardous material. As such, it may be disposed of in regular garbage. However, it is the responsibility of the practitioner to ensure that the capsules do not contain any residue.
Although medical materials and devices are under the regulatory purview of the Health Protection Branch of Health Canada, restorative material such as dental amalgam doesn’t fall into any classifications where Health Canada requires pre-market approval. However, they can take regulatory actions on any material. At this time there is no restricted use, according to the Canadian Dental Association, of dental amalgam in Canada.
In 2012, a survey was sent to dental facilities throughout the country and determined that a majority of dental facilities have adopted best management practices and have installed dental amalgam separators. This has enabled the country to achieve near total reduction of mercury released into the environment from dental amalgam waste, which has met their risk management objectives.
About Silver Wastes
Dental waste that contains silver, such as x-ray fixtures and developers might also be classified as a hazardous waste (Ontario regulation 347), but is dependent on the concentration of silver. As a heavy metal, a number of disposal options are recommended.
- Developers and fixer solutions should be separated and such solutions must be collected in separate containers in compliant containers, provided by suppliers or waste management companies.
- Such containers must be appropriately labelled as “x-ray fixer” or “x-ray developer”.
- Containers are only to be recycled or disposed of by approved waste carriers.
- In cases where 25 litres per month or less of developer is used by a dental facility, the facility is required to contact local municipalities to determine disposal options.
X-ray films contain silver and lead are also classified as contaminants under Schedule IV of Ontario regulation 347. Such waste is not to be placed into regular garbage, classified as biomedical waste, or entered into the sewage system. Unused films should be recycled. Developed film, although not requiring special handling, is recommended to be recycled whenever possible. For collection, underdeveloped film that is expired or unusable should be placed into an approved waste container to be disposed of compliantly by a waste management company.

KUALA LUMPUR: Angry at a seven-year-old boy left under her care, an Indonesian maid attempted to burn the house down, with him in it.
The 37-year-old maid is also alleged to have hit the boy on the head with a blunt object earlier in the house at Desa Park City, Kepong, yesterday morning.
Police said she then set the double-storey house ablaze before making her escape.
The half-conscious boy managed to call for help, and neighbours, alerted the security guards who managed to rescue him.
Sentul OCPD Asst Comm R. Munusamy said firemen managed to put out the fire in 20 minutes.
ACP Munusamy said police were looking for Nurmi Muhamad, whose passport number is AR846893 to assist in investigations.

Sega's hit arcade fighting game makes a surprise appearance on Genesis with Virtua Fighter 2. Since the 16-bit system lacks the technology for a faithful port, several changes were made in the conversion. Instead of the arcade game's ten characters, Virtua Fighter 2 on Genesis features the original Virtua Fighter's cast of eight. Characters and backgrounds are 2D rather than 3D, requiring some alterations in the control scheme, such as the omitting the ability to sidestep away from rivals. The core gameplay is otherwise the same: engage characters in a series of one-on-one battles until you reach the final boss, a silver-skinned cyborg named Dural. In addition to fighting the computer, you can challenge a friend to a head-to-head match.

The project of Mac Demarco guitarist Peter Sagar, Homeshake brings a contemporary, jazzy twist to lo-fi indie pop. One Youtube comment described the Montreal-based solo act's frosh album Fresh Air as "so sexy it's probably banned in Saudi Arabia and Texas." While it's probably not banned, the music is a treat. The mix of gated, vintage instrumentals pairs perfectly with the wispy and refreshing vocal harmonies. Sagar is touring on his second album, Helium, which just dropped in February. He also released a collection of remixes to Helium this month. The album is more electronic than his first album, but carries the same ambience. Homeshake is hitting the Neurolux with KeithCharles and Daddy Frank. KeithCharles is a lo-fi rapper based out of New York City.
With KeithCharles and Daddy Frank. 8:30 p.m. $12-15. Neurolux, 111 N. 11th St., Boise, neurolux.com.

Already forecasting a new peak in Covid-19 figures for August, the government in Mexico said on Tuesday that young people have been the most affected share of the population in recent weeks. Currently, the average age of coronavirus patients is 38 years old, the lowest since the beginning of the pandemic.
At the same time, Mexico’s coronavirus task force chief Hugo López-Gatell said the number of deaths is not keeping up the pace with total infections, which health officials say is an effect of increased vaccination levels. Mr. López-Gatell said over 97 percent of people currently hospitalized for Covid-19 are not vaccinated.
Mexico reports a total of more than 2.6 million confirmed cases and 237,000 deaths. Over 17.2 percent of the country’s 126 million people have been twice vaccinated.

Arduino or Raspberry Pi? The answer is yes. I got an Arduino to play around with and to learn more (any) electronics, but it is basically a great switch. Hooks up to input, drives output. It makes it much easier to work with controller chips but that is what it does. So I can see working with it to do something cool and will learn more.
Raspberry Pi is my next purchase...it's a full linux box. I can program in linux. I do all kinds of things in linux. I'm thinking I will be able to do those things, but smaller.
So they both have a place. If you made me choose one over the other, I'd probably go for Raspberry Pi because I will be able to do more with less of a learning curve, but fortunately, I don't have to choose. I take all of the above.

C news doesn't surprise me, there's an awful lot of people dropping into C from time to time to do stuff. Arduino programming for example Also Mindstorms.
I've got an arduino datalogger on its way because that lets me run on batteries for extended periods (less than 1mW if I push it, 10mW is fairly easy) while still polling a pile of sensors at 1Hz or so. Or I can plug it into POE and see what's happening around the house. I'm tempted to buy several with wifi adapters just so I don't have to run cables around the little apartment we live in. But first, pretty plastic cases so there's less whining from the non-engineer part of the household.
The Pi would suit something more intensive. I fear my velomobile monitor may end up needing sufficient processing power to require a Pi if I'm to get proper power metering (bicycle power metering is tricky). But I don't have that even designed, let alone a hardware spec yet, so I don't have a Pi.
In terms of time cost, I studied electrical engineering so the whole soldering and twiddling side is pretty old hat to me, and experience suggests I should buy the pre-assembled one just because machines solder so much more reliably than inexperienced people (I haven't used a soldering iron to do anything tricky for 25 years). Getting back into the lowish level programming interrupts, state machines and event loops sounds fun to me. Having someone else's kernal do all the work is more power than I want to spend (how many years will a Pi run off 4xNiMH AA cells between charges?). If you don't really like soldering chips onto boards you can buy Arduino kits prebuilt, but with Pi that's really the only option. OTOH, just about everything is an optional extra with the Arduino, but all sorts of handy things are built into the Pi. Perhaps get both, drive a little screen etc off the Pi and use it to talk to your Arduino?
Also, get a passthru USB power adapter so you can drive the "high power" Arduino from your phone. That makes field playing much, much easier. I am waiting on a combo battery+hub toy from China so hopefully I can run a USB keyboard and the Arduino off my phablet to do in-the-field reprogramming. lack of cursor keys on the phone is surprisingly annoying when coding.
BTW, EneLoops FTW. Also the "little acorn" battery powered motion sensing camera. That's the other half of your datalogging needs right there, all it's missing is a "trigger out" port so you have to open it up a little.
Moz is still around

Arduino for me, because I'm just not a Linux guy, and on the other hand, I am a huge fan of the AVR chips. Not yet convinced about the Arduino language; all the exploring I have done with AVRs has been in assembly language, and their architecture and instruction set are really nice. Scary fast devices, too, for low power chips.

The map looks plausible. By the way, maybe you've also noticed a certain empty spot: India.
One out of 6 humans comes from India, and as India is called THE software development centre of the world, you'd expect a high concentration there.
So, what's up?
It's partly caused by the fact that Indian developers are supposed to "grow" much more rapidly in their careers. They start as a tester. After a year they become developer, after 3 years they become architects. 2 years later they either have to become managers, or if they're not good at that, they are fired. I've lost many good coworkers in India because of that.
Now, how does that relate to Delphi? Well, we already know that Embarcadero does nothing to recruit new developers on universities. Everyone who once programmed in Delphi is now too old and expensive to work as a developer in India, or they are now team leaders or project managers.
Those in India who do program in Delphi are juniors who maintain legacy systems, or their work is to port stuff to C#
A full enterprise license costs the equivalent of multiple year salaries per junior developer. That doesn't help either.
If Embarcadero would recruit on universities, and it would lower its prices, there could be a boost in countries like India. But as it's standing right now, the number of users will inevitably dwindle down over the coming years.

Long time reader, first time commenter
I've been working with Arduino for almost a year now. It's a great tool for learning (electronics, micro-controllers, even C for those who don't know it yet), and for making small, standalone projects. You can also take out the programmed chip directly from an "Uno" board, solder it onto a dedicated circuit, then buy another.
The Pi, like others here said, is essentially a PC that happens to have some GPIO. So the answer to your Question of the Day is indeed: what do you want to do with it?
P.S. Being an amateur Delphi programmer and an active member of my local Arduino community, I always tell everyone how easy it is to create Delphi desktop applications that talk with the Arduino Here's a very small example, if I may: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHdr4RRHNBk

Thanks for the info and thanks for the link. I'll post some more on what I'm thinking soon.

Arduino, mostly because I don't have local support for the Raspberry PI. I have excellent local support for the Arduino(QC Colab Hackerspace). I do wish there was a development environment that used Pascal instead of the pseudo C that is used in the Arduino development environment.
The views I express here are entirely my own and not necessarily those of any other rational person or organization. However, I strongly recommend that you agree with pretty much everything I say because, well, I'm right. Most of the time. Except when I'm not, in which case, you shouldn't agree with me.

Evolution Gaming Wins Game of the Year Award
Evolution Gaming earned another prestigious honor by having its Monopoly Live game named the 2019 game of the year for the second straight year at the operator awards. This is an award show that is hosted by EGR and Evolution Gaming was given the award at a ceremony in London. Accepting the award on behalf of Evolution Gaming was Todd Haushalter who is the Company's Chief Product Officer. He was effusive in his praise of his team and talked glowingly about how his entire team strives to build games that players will really enjoy and that they would also want to play as well. He also said it was an honor to work with an iconic brand like Monopoly that has such an incredible backing at Scientific Games and Hasbro. Partnerships with both of these entities were necessary to make this live casino game a reality. He finished by saying this award will motivate his team's plans for 2020 and beyond and is the affirmation of everything that the company is currently doing and plans to do in the future.
Evolution Gaming has long been a leading provider of casino gaming solutions and is very respected in an industry that puts a premium on innovation and improving the customer experience every year through the use of immersion virtual reality type technology. Evolution Gaming had previously been best known for its Dream Catcher game that has captivated game players with its intuitive design as well as its intriguing layout and interface.
The winning Monopoly Live game is a special edition of the popular Dream Catcher game that really has taken the casino game playing experience to the next level. The game was made through a sublicense from Scientific Games which has rights to the Monopoly brand through its own license agreement with Hasbro. The game is incredibly innovative as it includes components of augmented reality and immersive gameplay. There are also bonus rounds that are built into the game that occur in 3D. The game was made to surround the adventures of the iconic Mr. Monopoly.
This game of the year award designation is taken very seriously and is held in high regard across the casino gaming industry. The award is given to the studio or game operator that has produced the stand-alone game that made the most impact on the industry in the year. In 2019 there were thirteen other companies who had games that were on a shortlist to win the award which made the award designation even more impressive. The award is also voted on by operators of the game and the entire process is made official with the accounting firm Deloitte and Touche managing the process from start to finish.

After reviewing existing COVID-19 relief, USDA will take a new approach for distributing additional assistance to farmers and ranchers called Pandemic Assistance for Producers. USDA will rewrite rules for this relief, placing a larger emphasis on small and socially disadvantaged farm operations, specialty crop and organic producers and support for the food supply chain and renewable fuels. The existing Coronavirus Food Assistance Program will fall within this new initiative and parts of CFAP may be refined to address farmer needs. USDA will reopen CFAP 2 sign-up for 60 days starting on April 5. Read more.

8 January 2017 | ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR –
The Director-General of WHO has outlined his vision for a Madagascar free of plague epidemics during a three-day visit to the island nation that started on 7 January 2018.
“Madagascar can make plague epidemics a thing of the past through strategic investments in its health system – including better access to healthcare, improving preparedness, surveillance and response capabilities, and implementing the International Health Regulations,” said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
During his first visit to Madagascar since his election as Director-General of WHO last year, Dr Tedros is due to meet with plague survivors and affected families, key Ministers and officials leading response efforts, the President and First Lady, and representatives of UN agencies and health partners. He will also visit a plague treatment centre, and the National Operational and Strategic Centre for Epidemiological Surveillance.
On the first day of the visit, the WHO Director-General thanked national authorities for their leadership and partners for their support during the recent nationwide outbreak of pneumonic and bubonic plague that caused more than 200 deaths over four months.
“This unprecedented pneumonic plague outbreak was contained due to the tireless efforts of Malagasy health workers and partners. WHO will continue to support plague preparedness, control and response, and we call on our international development partners to help us end human outbreaks. This will include better understanding of the wider factors that allow plague to spread, and strengthening national capacities to manage similar emergencies in the future,” said Dr Tedros.
Although the acute phase of the epidemic was declared over by health authorities in late November 2017, plague occurs seasonally in Madagascar, usually between September and April each year.
Dr Tedros was accompanied by WHO Regional Director for Africa Dr Matshidiso Moeti who cautioned that the response must be sustained until the end of the plague season and beyond.
“We must sustain a strong alert and response system to rapidly detect and respond to new plague cases as they emerge,” said Dr Moeti. “WHO urgently requires an additional US$ 4 million to sustain response operations over the next three months and until April 2018.”
When the outbreak was detected in August 2017, WHO rapidly mobilised financial, operational and technical support to Madagascar and neighbouring countries – releasing emergency funds, delivering medicines and supplies, sharing guidelines on case management and safe burials, supporting surveillance and laboratory testing, and strengthening public health measures at
ports and airports. More than 4400 people were trained to identify, refer and care for close contacts of plague patients to prevent the disease from spreading.
“With support from WHO and other partners we provided treatment to nearly all identified plague patients and more than 7300 contacts free of charge,” said Dr Lalatiana Andriamanarivo, Minister of Health of Madagascar.
Through its Health Emergencies programme, financial support for WHO’s response to the plague outbreak in Madagascar has been provided by the WHO Contingency Fund for Emergencies (CFE) and the governments of Italy, Norway and the Republic of Korea. WHO and the Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network (GOARN) staff deployed more than 135 staff to Madagascar to respond to the outbreak.

Primera is pleased to announce that two of our projects recently received the Platinum Award in the 2018 Building Design+Construction (BD+C) Building Team Awards. Our newly built McCormick Square Marriott Marquis project and our Wintrust Arena project were both honored with the top award in the annual awards program that recognizes projects that best exemplify the collaboration between owner, architect, engineer, and contractor to produce buildings that exhibit architectural and construction excellence.
Primera joined Goettsch Partners as the Architect of Record with Clark Construction serving as General Contractor in the early design phase to provide mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection services. The Marriott Marquis is a 40-story, 1.2 million-square-foot hotel with 1,205 guest rooms and suites. Primera also provided energy modeling and LEED fundamental and enhanced commissioning services. As Commissioning Authority, Primera utilized CxAlloy (cloud-based commissioning software) to manage design/equipment reviews, pre-functional checklist verifications, functional performance test execution and issue resolution. The project is pursuing LEED Silver certification through the New Construction v3.0 rating system.
The new Wintrust Arena is a 300,000-square-foot facility designed for concerts, sporting events and other major special events that features 10,000 seats, 22 suites and 479 club seats. Primera was hired early in the design phase to provide LEED fundamental and enhanced commissioning services. Primera collaborated with the project team through overlapping design and construction phases and continued through system acceptance and warranty. The Arena is also now the new home court for the DePaul University basketball teams, as well as the city’s WNBA team – the Chicago Sky.
Each year judges at BD+C base their award selections on the design, engineering and construction quality and excellence of newly-built projects. Projects are also judged on how the building team (architects, engineers, contractors, CMs, subcontractors, building owners, developers, government entities, etc.) collaborates to overcome obstacles to make the project succeed.
Building Design+Construction Magazine is owned by Scranton Gillette Communications, a fourth-generation family-owned business-to-business communications company. BD+C reaches more than 72,000 professionals involved in nonresidential building. It is the only magazine that reaches the complete building team, including design firms, contractor/building firms and building owner/developer/management firms. Additional information about them can be found by clicking here.

My introduction to the Veazie Veterinary Clinic came from a referral from my own vet. My two Corgi puppies had a heart problem that my vet was not equipped to deal with.
The minute I entered the clinic I felt that my pups were going to be okay. The doctors and their staff exude confidence, capability, and compassion.
The heart surgery was done and I am delighted to say that my little girls will soon be home. In time, they will be better than ever.
I believe that all life is precious. Thanks to Dr. Cloutier and his assistants, my girls will have the lives they were meant to and deserve to have.
My prayers were answered when my Corgis and I entered the doors of the Veazie Veterinary Clinic!

The most successful games of the year tend to have quite a lot in common. Big budgets, marketing, big teams and non-stop development support after launch. Among Us, by comparison is a micro-budget game produced by three developers over at Innersloth. So how did Among Us, lacking the budget or professional capacity of its rivals, become the fourth most popular game on Steam?
Among Us: Initial release returns only minor success
To say Among Us flew under the radar is an overstatement. Among Us never saw more than 50 players in its first 6 months, and never more than 1,000 in its first 17 months. Additionally, because games require 10 players to play under optimal conditions, the small player base also made picking up the game less desirable.
During the few months following its release, Marcus Bromander, an artist for Among Us, stated that “we’re really bad at marketing,” in an interview with Kotaku where he was asked about why a game capable of reaching over 300,000 concurrent players took two years to do so.
Among Us is a perfect example of the paradox of success. As more players picked up the game, word of mouth helped spread the game through small circles. When players with platforms on Twitch or YouTube began playing, this increased tenfold, and hundreds of thousands picked up the game. Success breeds success.
Additionally, the extremely low cost to purchase (free on Android and iOS, $4.99 on PC) meant that players were not deterred by a large price barrier.
Who began the current Among Us craze?
It’s actually fairly difficult to identify who exactly is responsible for Among Us having the delayed explosive success. In an interview with Kotaku, Innersloth’s developers talked about how the game found success in Brazil, Mexico, and Korea before ever finding a foothold in the United States.
Eventually, Among Us got picked up by big streamers such as Sodapoppin and xQc, who eventually spread it to more and more streamers. Those streamers, in turn, spread it to their audiences. And now the game seems to be everywhere.
At the end of the day, Among Us never would have found the success it did if the game wasn’t worthy of it. The game is fun. It’s fun to play with friends, it’s fun to watch others play, it’s fun to win, it’s even fun to lose if you don’t take it too seriously.
Innersloth created a game that was capable and deserving of an audience of hundreds of thousands. They didn’t achieve those numbers through marketing trickery or inconceivably large budgets, they did it by making an excellent product and waiting for the audience to come to them. To that end, they deserve to be congratulated.

Mile 81 meets "N." in this collaboration between Stephen King and Joe Hill.
As USA Today said of Stephen King's Mile 81: "Park and scream. Could there be any better place to set a horror story than an abandoned rest stop?" In the Tall Grass begins with a sister and brother who pull off to the side of the road after hearing a young boy crying for help from beyond the tall grass. Within minutes they are disoriented, in deeper than seems possible, and they've lost one another. The boy's cries are more and more desperate. What follows is a terrifying, entertaining, and masterfully told tale, as only Stephen King and Joe Hill can deliver.
©2012 Stephen King and Joseph Hillstrom King (P)2012 Simon & Schuster, Inc
I should've heeded the warnings in other reviews. I'm a Stephen King fan, and didn't expect a lighthearted feel-good story, but this book was just too disturbing to finish (so I can't comment on the ending). It did start off very well and the premise itself was very clever, but about halfway through, I got the kind of sick feeling I imagine I'd get from watching a snuff film.
My taste differs from kid books to gory horror books.
This was an excellent scary story. It was gory, which just made it that more scary. In Kansas they don't have woods, so stories about getting lost in he woods does not scare anyone. In Kansas they do have tall grass, wheat, sunflower fields, corn, etc. It was good from start to finish, first half and second half.
I like Stephen King, I like Joe Hill and I like King and Hill together. I don't know what else to say.
The Path Between the Seas to The Great Bridge ~ Kagan's Peloponnesian War to Gaddis' Cold One ~ Mornings on Horseback to a River of Doubt ~ Tom to Huck ~ Lennie to Charley ~ Cadfael to Cross ~ Rhyme to Reacher ~ Blomkvist and Salander to Wallander and Wallander ~ Moving Cheese or Eating Frogs ~ On the Road and Into Thin Air ~ The End of History to A Short History of Everything to ... well ... everything else.
Read my reviews, I like horror stories. I am a great fan of both Steven King and his son Joe Hill. They are amazingly creative and, at their best, they build our terror as they build their tales.
At their best. This is not their best. This is not in the same zip code as their best. This is a cheap, ugly story with none of the nuance or suspense we can usually expect from both King and Hill.
I will admit that the first half of the book builds interest. Knowing these great writers, we are certain that they will redeem this introduction masterfully. And we are wrong. At some point, after wading through the grotesque muck of the last several chapters, we find ourselves asking "Is this it? Is this all they've got?" And then we take a shower.
This is the work of juvenile hacks. There is nothing here other than an apparent quest to find the most vile imagery. The plot lines are broadly derivative of other works (Children of the Corn, Blair Witch Project). The thrills do not build to a climax but are one-offs, relying for their power on the gross.
Don't waste your credit. Don't waste your cash. Don't waste your time. This is trash.
Still tempted? Well (Spoiler Alert) ... how anxious are you to spend a couple hours following a pregnant girl and her brother as they are lured into a Kansas field and become lost; as she confronts a supernaturally tainted madman who beats her into miscarriage; as her brother is similarly turned mad and feeds her the fresh corpse of her baby; and as she too is lost to madness and joins in luring others into the field? If this appeals, you deserve the experience.
Mixed, complicated feelings about this after listening.
We picked this up for a little Halloween road trip being huge fans of Joe Hill and having really enjoyed King's last few books.
And the beginning of this story is so, so, creepy. And wonderfully narrated.
When the explanation for what's in the grass comes, though, the story veers into King territory pretty hardcore. It's violent and disturbing and much more "The Regulators"-era King than "Nightmares and Dreamscapes," with a little too much "Dreamcatcher" in there. Yuck.
We don't regret the experience and it IS well written and wonderfully read, but know what you're getting into. We'd been hoping it would be a little more ofa Joe Hill story, but it is wonderful to see the two of them writing together.
Im awesome at listening to books.....your welcome world.
of the 160 audio books i have listened to. This one made me proclaim out loud , almost screaming. "OH MY GOD !...........OH MY GOD......NO effing WAY" This will be the most crazy thing you have ever heard. I promise. Damn!
maybe if they spent more time on the second half of the story would have been nice,it's like they had a good story but they didn't have a ending but they did it anyway,O-lets throw in something really sick maybe they won't notes the ending. don't spend the money if you already did turn it off half-way thew .Stephen Lang is great, but you can only do so much with a bad story,,
Dedicated Audible reader - love the average apocalyptic dystopian horror story!
I would recommend this book only to those who are not offended by extreme grotesqueries.
The story was a bit predictable but it was so raw and startling that I did not expect a lot of the imagery that took place.
The brother sister relationship established at the beginning of the book built a great foundation for the reader to get pulled in. Even in the short duration of the pages - the characters were crafted carefully and you actually get to know them before the darkness takes over the story theme.
It was over the top blood and guts! I wasn't expecting the punch in the stomach that it provided.
stephen lang was amazing. great book strait to the point and down right creepy. beautiful!
I enjoyed the story a lot. I didn't think it was going to end the way it did. Just like Steven King and Joe Hill to give you no resolve. This story is not about brother and sister, but more about a place... and a rock. A terrible rock

Show & Tell over at Kelli's
Click on photos to enlarge.
Here is a plate I bought quite a few years back, as per usual from the Car Boot Sale. It hangs on my kitchen wall, over a doorway, and I must look at it a couple of dozen times a day. I love the design and the bird - which I think is a bit peacock-like. Blue is my favourite colour too.
Here is a little pillow I made for a Forum swop. The little heart-shaped buttons are mother-of-pearl effect (think they are made of shells too). I love the lilac print material - I've had it years and only wish I had bought yards of it when I found it. The benefit of hindsight . . .
This is the reverse of the pillow. The colourful print at the top is some left over from a waistcoat I have been making for my eldest daughter, who does "colourful" in a BIG way! I embroidered around the flowers in chain stitch, did a few lumpy French knots, and added a few beads. The little rosettes are from some ribbon I had in my stash and beaded in the centre. The top edge is still tacked, because I thought to take a photo before it was finished, intending to take a finished photo too, then had to post it in a hurry and forgot. I think there was about 20 + hours sewing went into this.
