Truly Unusual Contract
Filed under unusual contracts was the one where I billed for "Omphaloskepsis".
"Navel gazing?" you ask incredulously?!
Yes. And I was paid for it.
I was hired by a lawyer for an intellectual rights case. I was supposed to determine when the material in question was actually first generated, as the company was claiming it was done when the person was in their employ, therefore the concept belonged to them. Not so unusual.
The opposing lawyer was stalling and delaying. Also not so unusual.
Then when the hard drive containing the concept in question was, at long last, to be delivered so I could evaluate the time frame of the data, there was a motor vehicle accident on the way. In the ensuing chaos, with police, and towing, and whatnot, the hard drive in question disappeared.
Hmmm. Now the fun begins. The lawyer that hired me still had to go forward somehow with the case...
So he contacted me, and requested that I NOT write a report telling him the steps I would have taken, and what I would have been able to have determined had I had access to the hard drive and data in question. Not writing a report made sense as that prevents discovery. So I obliged, and saw to it that there was no written material in the process while making sure the lawyer understood exactly what I would have been able to determine and how I would have determined it.
Then came time to bill for my services. Any written reference to the report I did NOT do makes the information discoverable even if the report itself did not happen. So I contemplated how to document my services for the bill, which naturally led to "Omphaloskepsis".
The lawyer happily paid me for said service.
Unusual? Yes, but what else was I supposed to do under the circumstances?

Hillary Wants To Do For The Housing Market What She Tried To Do For Health Care
At the last Democratic debate, Hillary Clinton laid out her proposal to deal with the subprime mortgage crisis:
“I have a plan – a moratorium on foreclosures for 90 days [and] freezing interest rates for five years, which I think we should do immediately,” Clinton announced at what was the last Democratic debate before the Nevada Caucus on Jan. 19.
As Fortune’s Jon Birger notes, Clinton’s proposal for an interest rate freeze would be a complete, utter disaster:
[S]uch a freeze would be disastrous. Interest rates on new mortgages would skyrocket – perhaps past 8 percent, as the mutual funds, pension funds and other investors who typically provide capital to the mortgage market shift their money into other investments where the government isn’t impairing returns. With higher mortgage rates eroding buying power, the downward pressure on home prices would only increase. Lower home prices would lead to even more defaults, as more folks who’d lost the equity in their homes choose to walk away from their mortgages.
“It certainly would not speed the recovery of the housing market,” says Doug Duncan, chief economist of the Mortgage Bankers Association. “The problem now is that investors are already worried about what the risks are, and (a rate freeze) would only widen risk premiums more.”
Then there’s the long-term impact such a bailout would have on behavior. While Clinton’s plan would no doubt save some legitimate victims who were duped into taking out bad loans, she’d also be saving the flippers and speculators who knew the risks of low teaser rate mortgages but figured (wrongly) that they could always sell their house for a profit if the reset mortgage rate proved unaffordable. Bailing out these folks now would only encourage them to take even bigger risks down the line.
And, you see, that’s what this housing crisis is all about. People took risks and made dumb decisions and now they’re paying the consequence for it. It would’ve made much more sense to find suitable land to redevelop properties on, like The Property Block does, as this is a much more effective way to solve this particular problem.
And if that doesn’t work, the only sane and rational thing to do is to allow the crisis to play itself out, and whether that means more foreclosures or banks renegotiating the terms of loans to allow people to get out from under payments they can’t afford is something that private parties, not the government should decide. That being said, real estate companies like the property block have developed new technologies that allow them to redevelop homes to make them more affordable. This way private companies are solving the housing crisis, and not the government.
But Hillary’s proposal just reminds me of the something else. The Republicans are bad on economics, but at least they aren’t proposing a plan that would send the housing market into a death spiral.
So who do you vote for — the eventual Republican nominee, whoever that might be, or the woman who will destroy the economy ?

Geelong landmarks snapped up as buyers see city’s prosperous future
THE days for the last remaining house on a Geelong CBD street appear to be numbered after it was sold as a development opportunity last week.
A local buyer has snapped up the weatherboard house at 88 Brougham Street after an expressions of interest campaign.
Darcy Jarman, Newtown agent Tim Darcy described the buyer as an owner occupier-developer.
He said nine formal offers were submitted for the 431sq m property between Yarra and Bellerine Streets.
“It invoked broad interest from a raft of parties,” he said.
“Not only local but also external parties from the Melbourne and Sydney market.”
Mr Darcy said it was a rare property, given its location opposite Transvaal Square.
“We’re talking about the only property anywhere on Brougham Street of a residential nature, other than apartment buildings,” he said.
“It was freehold land, with uninterrupted view across parkland to Corio Bay.”
Mr Darcy said the Activity Centre zoning presented development scope to the buyers, with the additional access to the rear adding another dynamic.
Meanwhile a Melbourne investor has added a multistorey Geelong office building to his portfolio.
The city training base for not-for-profit disability, ageing and community service provider GenU offered a recurring income through a recently signed five-year lease, with an option for an additional years, providing an annual rent of $135,000, with fixed 3 per cent annual increases.
The property at 15 Little Ryrie Street, Geelong sold for $2.91m at auction.
“They were seeking a passive investment, something that might provide some a strong recurring income,” Mr Darcy said.
“He very much perceived Geelong as a prosperous market and a reason to invest their money in.”
Mr Darcy said the property attracted 70 direct inquiries during the campaign.
“That’s a strong response. We’ve got a property at the moment in High St, Belmont attracting similar response.
“I think Geelong is very much perceived as a prosperous market,” he said.
Mr Darcy said there had always been people prepared to invest in commercial property in Geelong, but that demand was heightened by the disruption experienced in Melbourne through the coronavirus pandemic which has placed additional focus on regional areas.
He said commentary around worsening returns for bank investments had turned people to real estate.
“We’ve always had people who are prepared to invest money in Geelong.
“But it was further heightened by the period of disruption that Melbourne has been through.
Additional focus in regional areas, none more so than Geelong.
“People are looking for a good grade of property, good areas.”

The Exciters – 1969 – Caviar & Chitlins
Read Reviews, Buy the Album or Download the Album for free
I’ve always wondered why The Exciters didn’t enjoy greater commercial successes given their talents. Brenda Reid had an amazing voice – tough, but highly commercial and was more than the equal to scores of contemporaries who enjoyed far more commercial recognition and success. How do you explain something like that ?
1968 found the group signed to their fifth label in six years (which may have at least partially explained the lack of greater commercial success). Signed by RCA Victor, they made their debut with a sterling single that should have burned up the charts:
– ‘If You Want My Love’ b/w ‘Take One Step (I’ll Take Two)’ (RCA Victor catalog number 47-9633)
A1 Blowing Up My Mind 2:47
A2 Give It All 2:39
A3 Fight That Feelin’ 3:00
A4 Always 2:20
A5 You Don’t Know What You’re Missing (Til It’s Gone!) 3:26
B1 I Don’t Have to Worry (No More) 3:15
B2 You Got Me 2:44
B3 Movin’ Too Slow 2:50
B4 If I Could See Into Tomorrow 2:22
B5 A Year Ago 3:01
B6 Turn Me On 2:37
Review by RDTEN1
While it wasn’t a massive commercial success. the song did well enough for RCA management to green light an album – 1969’s “Caviar and Chitlins”. Co-produced by Larry Banks, Paul Robinson, and Herb Rooney the album clearly put the spotlight of lead singer Reid. While Rooney was pictured on the cover, with the exception of ‘You Got Me’ and ‘A Year Ago’ he was notably absent from the performances. With Banks and Rooney responsible for writing all ten tracks, material like ”Fight That Feelin”, ‘I Don’t Have To Worry (No More)’ and ‘Movin’ Too Slow’ was clearly intended to update the group’s sound, adding a contemporary soul sheen to the mix. While it wasn’t quite the psychedelic soul Norman Whitefield was churning out with The Temptations, ‘Blowing Up My Mind’ had a similar adult contemporary vibe, while ‘You Don’t Know What You’re Missing (Til It’s Gone)’ came about as close to outright funk as The Exciters ever came. To my ears the results were simply wonderful – among the best soul albums of the year. You were left to wonder how popular radio and the buying public overlooked the set.
Opening up with some tasty organ, ‘Blowing Up My Mind‘ was a stomping slice of up-tempo soul. Reid seldom sounded as good as on this one, literally slamming the lyrics out with the speed and impact of a 50 caliber machine gun. My only complaint was the song faded out too early. Easy to see why RCA tapped it as a leadoff single.Wrapped in a big horn arrangement, ‘Give It All‘ had a more sophisticated pop sound, but unlike a lot of Motown’s efforts to go ‘uptown’, Reid voice was strong enough to make sure the track didn’t drown in an MOR puddle. ‘Fight That Feelin‘ found the group taking a stab at a bluesier sound and once again, thanks to the strength and quality of Reid’s voice, the results were impressive. To my ears Reid actually sounded a bit lit Aretha Franklin on this one.
Another orchestrated, mid-tempo number, ‘Always‘ came close to crossing the line into MOR territory. Luckily another great Reid performance coupled with an insidiously catchy title track chorus saved the song from itself. Side one’s funkiest number, ‘You Don’t Know What You’re Missing (Til It’s Gone)‘ was a great dance track. Kicked along by some great horns, this one was slinky and seductive with a great call-and-response arrangement between Reid and backing singers Carol Johnson and Lillian Walker.
With a rousing pseudo-Gospel delivery, Reid’s take-no-prisoners performance on ‘I Don’t Have To Worry (No More)‘ made me a believer …Showcasing Rooney on lead vocals, ‘You Got Me‘ showcased one of the album’s prettiest melodies and a near perfect vocal from Rooney. With some of the best female empowerment lyrics you’ve ever heard, ‘Movin’ Too Slow‘ was another highlight. Reid’s biting I’m-out-of-here-loser delivery was the stuff Diana Ross and the Supremes could only dream about.The first disappointment, ‘If I Could See Into Tomorrow‘ fell face long into the MOR swamp. Reid sang the hell out of the track, but it was just too gooey to salvage.
I’d venture to say Rooney was the group’s hidden treasure – he had a great voice and the fact he was seldom featured on lead vocals served to make his occasional performances all the more enjoyable. With a breezy heartbreak melody (I even liked the tropical-tinged flute accompaniment), this one sounded a but like a rouged-up Smokey Robinson pleading for a bit of sympathy. One of few tracks that sounded a bit old school, ‘Turn Me On‘ had a distinctively top-40 melody and one of Reid’s toughest vocals.
In addition to the leadoff single, the album was tapped for a follow-on 45:
– 1969’s ‘Blowing Up My Mind; b/w ‘You Don’t Know What You’re Missing ( ‘Til It’s Gone!); (RCA victor catalog number 47-9723)

I had a revelation while looking at news footage of the Trump Tower climber. For those who don’t remember, I’ll give a brief synopsis. Back before the 2016 election, a young man scaled the facade of Trump Tower in New York using industrial strength suction cups. He made it to the 26th floor (if I remember the number correctly) before police caught him and hauled him inside the building. A massive throng of people amassed outside on the street to watch the spectacle, with police blocking off the road for traffic. Objectively speaking the man transgressed. Scaling other people’s buildings without permission is morally wrong, and potentially puts people in danger. That being said, many people cheered for the climber and wished him success in his endeavor. I’m confident that many onlookers both at the scene and on the other side of television and computer screens would have liked for the cat and mouse game to have continued, with the level of excitement increasing as he reached higher and higher.
What does this tell us about our society if we extrapolate this concept? Most people if asked would tell you that respecting property rights is important, yet many people (including many who would tell you it was wrong) cheered enthusiastically for the climber. There is a disconnect between what we know is right and what we support in the moment. Other examples of this will be illuminating. Free climbing or “parkour” videos are popular on YouTube and other video sides. The vast, vast majority of these videos are filmed at locations where the climbers obviously don’t have permission to be there. Often, they climb ridiculously high, perform stunts at extreme altitudes without safety gear or much of a margin for error. If they fall down and hit someone, the victim would be instantly killed by such a mass moving at tremendous speed. Yet, we don’t chastise the freerunners, we cheer them and click play on the next video.
Prank videos featuring pranks on innocent bystanders, store/restaurant employees and so on are also in high demand. There is a lack of empathy for the innocent party here. Some of the pranks will necessitate time and resources in order to clean up, both physically and mentally/emotionally. One egregious example is a prank done by the channel “Vitalyzd” a few years ago. In the video the pranksters pretend that a pram carrying a baby is out of control and rolling downhill, off a cliff or something similarly dangerous. Bystanders rush into action, suffering extreme mental anguish at the thought of an innocent young baby suffering severe injuries or worse. For the pranksters this is hilariously funny, but what about the bystanders?
What all this means is that our modern society is suffering from a distortion from the fundamentals we like to think our civilization is built upon. At the same time, we wish for others to be moral and conduct themselves in a respectable manner, we cheer on and support those who transgress and break the covenant of societal rules. What are we to make of this clear disconnect? While the renegade, outsider, outlaw archetype has always been popular in fiction, my experience is that we now look up to those deviating from classical norms at the expense of law abiders. We have definitely experienced a moral, sentimental, emotional and cultural shift over the last decades. In that context the recent rigid stratification of American politics and culture into distinct camps is more a symptom than independent happening.
While the worship of the outlaw can be perfectly healthy, it requires a strict adherence to the moral and law-abiding foundation that should lie at the center of ourselves and society at large. What is new is that this foundation has eroded and been replaced by widespread indifference to what is going on. Apart from the politically active on both the right and left, there is a massive blob of people in the center completely consumed by consumer culture, mindless non-challenging entertainment and a going along to get along sentiment that is detrimental to political discourse.
While I enjoyed “Breaking Bad” as much as anyone, I’m able to distinguish between the flourishing of anti-heroes in fiction and the ethical ruleset I advocate and follow in my personal life. Perhaps the hysterical soccer moms were right all along, video games, violent television programs and movies, derogatory music and so on have had a negative impact in the moral vacuum found in contemporary society. I myself am able to enjoy Grand Theft Auto without having the simulated actions spill over into real life. But in a culture where apathy, indifference, non-confrontation and hedonism rule, the consequences can be and already are catastrophic. As a society we must reclaim a healthy relationship to proper ethics, start caring again and relegate the outlaw anti-hero to his proper place, the world of fiction.

Ban on single-use plastic items in the state from November
Wokha Nov. 7 (EMN): Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio on Wednesday said that the people of Nagaland should desist from handing out free food and locally made products as gifts to visiting VIPs and tourists. Rather, he advised, they should opt to capitalise on their work and finished products.
Speaking at the Tokhü Emong festival, the post-harvest festival of the Lotha tribe at Wokha public ground, the chief minister said the well-known hospitality of the Nagas can be for own loss as they sometimes go out of their way to express gratitude to others.
Rio opined that the people should use events (festivals) as an opportunity to sell and advertise their work and products by opening stalls, instead of giving them away as complimentary gifts.
With Wokha district all set to host the first-ever Amur falcon conservation week and festival from November 8, Rio said a noted conservationist had confided in him about the possibility of the migratory birds not returning to the state in the future, as early as next year if it is disturbed by human activities near the roosting places.
He requested the authorities and officials to find viable arrangements to ensure that the visiting birds are not disturbed, and that the district can continue to celebrate the annual festival.
The chief minister also gave assurance to assist in construction of the proposed Lotha Tribal Council hall but said that the public also should contribute to the project so that everyone would have a sense of ownership and belongingness.
Host of the festival and Deputy Chief Minister Y Patton thanked all the artistes from neighbouring districts who added colour and made the festival more vibrant with their participation.
Putting an end to the rumours of cracks between the Nationalist Democratic Progressive Party (NDPP) and Bharatiya Janata party (BJP), Patton said the present People’s Democratic Alliance (PDA) government under the leadership of Neiphiu Rio is stable and strong. He stated that unlike the previous NPF government wherein legislators spent most of their time at Kaziranga over infightings due to lack of leadership, the PDA government under the stable leadership of Rio is focused on development, and that the alliance would come to power in the next election too after successfully completing five years tenure.
The festival was marked by cultural display from Assamese cultural troupe, and performances from Ao tribe, Rengma tribe and Longsa village. A mass Tokhü Emong feast followed after the programme ended.
State to get rid of plastic waste
While speaking on the occasion of Tokhü Emong, Rio said that single-use plastic items like bottles, paper cups and plates will be completed banned in the state from November, thus fulfilling the promise made by the state government during World Environment Day in June this year to free Nagaland of plastic waste.
The chief minister stated that INR 10 lakh each has already been allotted to all the districts under the deputy commissioners from CM corpus fund to promote bamboo products like bags, baskets and containers as an alternative to plastic products.

Dr. Lefort's Lab
The primary focus of Dr. Lefort's lab is on elucidating the mechanisms of leukocyte integrin activation. Integrins are adhesion receptors that are critical for leukocyte trafficking by allowing them to interact tightly with the blood vessel wall. The affinity of integrins is highly regulated by proteins that bind to their short cytoplasmic tails and change the structure of the integrin extracellular domains -- a process called "inside-out" activation. We discovered that two of these proteins, Talin-1 and Kindlin-3, play distinct roles in regulating beta-2 integrin activation. We are now further dissecting the molecular details of integrin activation and investigating how the roles of integrins (and their activation) varies across leukocyte subsets and in different vascular beds throughout the body.

Roguebook has four unique and exciting heroes you can unlock and use. This guide on How To Unlock All Characters In Roguebook will tell you everything you need to do in order to unlock Seifer and Aurora so you have all four characters to explore the pages of the book.
At the beginning of Roguebook, you start with two characters unlocked at the very start. One of which is heavily focused on dealing damage and attacking, the other predominantly works on defensive abilities and keeping your team alive. The next two characters that you unlock are more complex but also far more rewarding, with more exciting combinations, more potential, and more depth.
How To Unlock All Characters In Roguebook
How To Unlock Seifer, Blood Tyrant
Seifer is easily my favorite character in the game and one of my favorites in the genre. He has a unique combination of skills that allows him to focus on both offensive and defensive abilities. He utilizes a rage mechanic where rage builds up for each damage he takes. Once he reaches max rage level he transforms and his next special class card has additional effects. He can self heal by defeating enemies, sacrifice HP for additional damage, he’s a lot of fun. If you want to unlock Seifer you need to defeat the boss at the end of Chapter One
Unlocking Aurora is slightly more complicated as there’s a random element involved. I was on Chapter 2 of the Epilogue, after you’ve completed the game twice and have a new modifier unlocked, but I think he is available to unlock earlier. When you are exploring the map, look for the scroll icons. These are special story events that appear on the map. They usually give you a choice in exchange for an item but, and this is a random chance, one will make Aurora spawn on the map.
He will ask you to find his teacup. The teacup is a special artifact that is usually visible on the map if it’s available to collect. I’m not entirely certain but I would assume that any map that features the teacup also has Aurora, if you can find him. Grab the teacup and then interact with Aurora. Give her the teacup and she will be available for all future runs.
That’s how you unlock all characters in Roguebook.

When Illinois' last three-point shot bounced off the rim and Sean May snatched the last rebound of the game Monday night, the last critics of Coach Roy Williams were out of ammunition.
Ol' Roy, as the Blue Ridge mountains native sometimes calls himself, won the big game when it mattered most, delivering North Carolina's fourth national championship in his second season as the Tar Heels' head coach.
It was a win that brought the Tar Heel Nation as much relief as jubilation; a loss in St. Louis would have left Williams still seeking that elusive national title after four Final Four tries at Kansas, and it would have denied a core of talented players the most coveted trophy in college basketball.
From Bucknell's upset of Kansas in the first round to the thrilling overtime games that decided three of the four regional championships, the 2005 version of March Madness proved to be one for the ages.
For North Carolina fans, defeat Monday night would have written a bitter ending to a season woven of such high expectation.
Saturday's game -- a relatively easy 87-71 win over Michigan State -- showed the Tar Heels poised and ready for the primetime showdown with Illinois, which ended the season ranked No. 1 and had won 37 games against one loss before Monday night.
The Tar Heels came into the game perhaps the only team in history whose chances were belittled by sports pundits on the grounds that their players were too good. They were too talented and too high-scoring, went the faddish prediction, and would lose to the better-coached and more disciplined Illini.
"I didn't know if we had a great chance," Williams said after the 75-70 victory. "I just love this team as a family. Our guys stood up and made the big shots. We went out there and won it as a team."
Big shots indeed played a role. Sean May scored 26 points on 10 for 11 shooting and finished carrying the team across the finish line. But in the end the Tar Heels won it with tough defense. They stopped Illinois from scoring over the last 21/2 minutes, and Raymond Felton's steal in the last minute helped clinch the victory.
The sports writers had spent days peppering Williams with the question: How would he feel if he left the Final Four empty handed again? Monday night, he had to answer no more. He deflected credit to the Carolina tradition, his players, his mother, Lallage Williams; his high school basketball coach at T.C. Roberson, Buddy Baldwin.
The stars of the game and the season -- May, Felton and McCants -- are probably off to the riches of the NBA, sad to say, even though they're juniors.
Ol' Roy stays on. Having brought the Tar Heels another national championship banner, Carolina fans will be happy to have him in Chapel Hill for a long time.

USDA Projects Lower Meat Production The USDA U.S. meats supply and use is showing a remarkable decline in red meat and poultry supplies.
USDA is projecting 2010 U.S. total meat and poultry production to decline almost 2.8 billion lbs compared to 2008. A huge decline. In our farmer way of looking at things, 2.8 billion lbs is about 85,000 tractor-trailers of meat and poultry, or about 250 loads each and every day.
Why is the supply coming down matter? There are over 6 million more Americans than two years ago, pushing demand. Pork demand in itself is stronger than last year. Iowa-Minn lean hog price last week was 68.79 … a year ago the same week – 54.92. A cool 25% higher. Anyone who says pork demand is not better check the prices. Also remember a year ago now H1N1 (swine flu) had not hit (came late April). The stronger U.S. economy and stronger exports are pushing prices. The demand for hams from Mexico due to their massive herd liquidation there has pushed hams up 50% from a year ago (2010 – 67¢, 2009 – 44¢).
The demand equation will be only enhanced by Russia and China’s announcement last week to re-open their markets to U.S. pork (H1N1 is over?). Hogs are $1.50 U.S. lean in Russia. China’s prices are about 80¢ lean. In our opinion any pork to either country is price supportive. If Russia and China because of the borders opening take only 2% more of U.S. production (500 million lbs), this would be tremendously hog price enhancing. Enhanced exports and USDA predicting about one billion lbs less pork produced in 2010 compared to 2008. You can see why we remain bullish.
We are not the only ones. June lean hogs at 83¢ are life of contract highs. For everyone’s sake, we all need some luck. Two and a half years of losing our rear ends has been bad for everyone, including bankers.
Credit remains tight and we expect it to remain as such. Not only have losses been in the billions, it’s more than that – it’s personal. It’s one thing to talk in industry numbers, but each and everyone has their personal circumstances. Some have lost their farms, some have had their family lives crushed by day upon day of financial pressure and the collateral damage of scrambling to pay the bills, equities have eroded not only from the cash loss, but also from the equity loss from decreased inventory and fixed assets real value. It’s a grim reality of our industry. Many are hanging on by their fingernails to get to higher prices. If one thing we have come to appreciate, it is the ‘can do’, no surrender attitude of our industry. There is no quit. It’s made this thing drag out. Few have left our industry easily or quickly. No question, if you want a team of fighters with a no quit attitude, take hog producers. We are glad we are associated with an industry with such character.
June lean hogs life of contract highs. China and Russia are opening borders to U.S. pork. USDA is projecting less pork, less beef, less poultry. The economy is recovering domestically and globally. A combination for strong hog prices for the next year. We believe there are dynamics in place for lean hogs to hit 90¢ lean this summer.

Objective: Takayasu arteritis is a large-vessel vasculitis that occurs predominantly in young females. The diagnosis is not usually established before arterial stenoses or occlusions are present. The aim of the study was to find out if sonography can aid in the diagnosis of the disease in earlier stages.
Methods: We describe three patients with early disease who had no haemodynamically relevant stenoses. They are compared with nine patients who were diagnosed in the stenotic/occlusive stage of the disease. All patients were German Caucasian females. Colour Doppler sonography and angiography were performed in all cases.
Results: Patients with early disease had general symptoms of fatigue and arthralgia and laboratory signs of inflammation, but neither bruits nor decrease of pulse rate. Sonography of the carotid and subclavian arteries demonstrated a characteristic, homogeneous, midechoic, circumferential thickening of the wall. At this stage of the disease it was difficult to get unequivocal results with angiography. In all nine remaining patients, sonography also demonstrated inflammation of the subclavian or carotid arteries, as did angiography in eight of these patients.
Conclusion: Sonography of the carotid and subclavian arteries aids in the detection of early Takayasu arteritis. In young females with unclear symptoms and laboratory findings of generalized inflammation, the primary extracranial branches of the aortic arch should be investigated by sonography to detect early Takayasu arteritis.

Billy Cobham Colin Towns & HR Big Band - 2006 "Meeting Of The Spirits"
There's plenty more too. The recent release of the wonderful A Meeting Of Spirits album from the brilliant keyboardist Gary Husband. A cover of the Mahavishnu classic, "Thousand Island Park," from keyboard wizard Mitchel Forman on his new Perspectives disc. And just a few weeks ago, the pairing of Cobham and Mahavishnu violinist Jerry Goodman, who had not played together in over thirty years, for a performance of Mahavishnu music with the hr-Bigband at the Berlin Jazz Festival. Up next will be a DVD of a performance from the second version of the Mahavishnu Orchestra at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1974.
We've been lucky so far. Those who have chosen to interpret this engaging, but very challenging, music have produced work worthy of Mahavishnu's legacy. This new disc from Germany's hr-Bigband (a performance broadcast live on German radio earlier this year) is no exception. The hr-Bigband's manager, Olaf Stotzler, had been looking for someone who would take the music and crash through barriers with it—and in English arranger/composer Colin Towns he found him.
Initial exposure to the Mahavishnu Orchestra could sometimes be overwhelming. The original band's complex time signatures, most evident in Cobham's masterful drumming, could be confusing to musicians and audiences alike. But if you stuck with them, you'd likely find yourself locked into the groove. Towns and the hr-Bigband have taken this dimension even further. There are main themes being performed while sub-themes and sub-sub-themes are being played simultaneously. At first it's almost too much—until you remember the spirit of the original band. To take this music out, you need to take it out. Only then do you find yourself immersed in the arrangements and lost in lofty thought.
Cobham revisits his past with fervor. His drumming remains a dominant, driving force. Time has passed and he takes more reflective solos, but his support playing is still powerful and compelling. The band itself is full of accomplished musicians who seem to understand the nuance—even if it is bombastic—of the music. Martin Scales' guitar captures the essence of the original sounds without attempting to mimic them. The horns and keyboards provide their version of swing for music in which sometimes the swing is implied. It's a full-bodied sound with all the power you'd expect from a big band. Yet the players are at home too in quiet sections of great beauty. To be able to carry off that latter aspect of the Mahavishnu music, as required by Towns' arrangements, is key to any successful interpretation of these tunes.
The way the album has been edited creates what could be considered one long composition, seamlessly formed of movements from the first and second Mahavishnus. This imbues a sense of building tension which is released on the final cut, “Meeting Of The Spirits,” and through the joyous yelps of an appreciative crowd, whose enthusiasm throughout is part of the listening experience.
Mahavishnu's guitarist, John McLaughlin, who wrote some of the liner notes, never expected to hear his compositions played by a big band. The music on this CD, he says, is a revelation to him. Meeting Of The Spirits successfully presents Mahavishnu music in a way you'll never have experienced it before.
It’s fair to say that there has been no shortage of bad press for jazz-rock fusion over the last two decades in a classic case of throwing the baby out with the bathwater. As a result, the achievements of the Mahavishnu Orchestra have been diminished with the passage of time to the point it now seems like a footnote in the pages of history. Yet the Mahavishnu Orchestra was the next major step in jazz rock after Bitches Brew. OK, it may have triggered the guitar Olympics, where every guitarist wanted to play faster than McLaughlin, but here was the visceral marriage of Hendrix’ guitar sound and blistering jazz improvisation taken to a level of excellence that is now a benchmark in the music.
Billy Cobham, Colin Towns and HR-Big Band - Meeting of the Spirits: A Celebration of the Mahavishnu
While the group is remembered for vistuosity taken to the nth degree, McLaughlin’s compositions for the band, with their intricate melodies and tricky time signatures, are largely forgotten. This project brings those compositions alive, and is a reminder that the Mahavishnu Orchestra were by no means one dimensional. Towns’ orchestrations are a stunning mix of imagination and craftsmanship (‘Birds of Fire,’ ‘Celestial Terrestrial Commuters,’ ‘Meeting of the Spirits’), but they also let the music breath with exciting and wholly apposite solos from the members of the HR-Big Band that show how this music works in an acoustic context.
Axel Schlosser on trumpet on ‘Birds of Fire’ or Johannes Enders on tenor on ‘Dawn’, for example, rise to the challenge of this demanding music with ease and elegance. Cobham’s captures much of the coiled spring intensity of his work on the originals, and has plenty of solo space, such as ‘Resolution’. A great album, which places jazz-rock in a different light – as Towns says, ‘Take a look at this, if you like it, check out the original records. It will enhance your life more than realise!’

Fans inside Old Trafford pay tribute to The Queen following her death
It was announced on Thursday that The Queen had died at her royal residence in Balmoral, aged 96.
United confirmed prior to kick-off that their Group E clash would be going ahead, but both sets of players would be wearing black armbands.
Flags inside the ground were also flown at half-mast.
Manchester United and Real Sociedad hold a minute silence to pay their respects to Her Majesty the Queen, who passed away today aged 96.pic.twitter.com/5aIX7nqzBF— SPORTbible (@sportbible) September 8, 2022
Stadium announcer Alan Keegan said: "Manchester United shares the sorrow of the entire nation following the announcement from Buckingham Palace on the passing of Her Majesty The Queen.
"The club recognises her immense contribution to public life, including sport, both here in the United Kingdom, across the Commonwealth and around the world.
"Everyone connected with Manchester United joins the wider football family in sending our deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathy to The Royal Family."
Everyone inside the stadium rose to their feet to impeccably hold a minute's silence, with television cameras capturing the crowd.
Sociedad fans held their scarves high in the air in a symbol of unity.
Queen Elizabeth II was the first British Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee following her accession to the throne on February 6, 1952.
Following her death, the throne was passed to her son, Charles.
He will be known as King Charles III.
United have started with a much-changed team from Sunday's 3-1 victory over Arsenal, with summer arrival Casemiro given his first start since arriving from Real Madrid.
Cristiano Ronaldo returned to the starting line-up and thought he'd scored the opening goal midway through the first half.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner fired a header home, but was correctly ruled offside.
The game is currently 0-0 at halftime.

United Reaches Joint Collective Bargaining Agreement with Dispatcher Unions
Almost four years after United Airlines merged with Continental Airlines, several of United’s unionized work groups continue to operate much as they did before the deal, essentially as if there were two separate and distinct carriers. On Tuesday, however, United announced progress in this area.
The carrier said that it has reached a tentative joint collective bargaining agreement with two unions that together represent a total of 330 flight dispatchers, namely the Professional Airline Flight Control Association, which represents dispatchers at the airline’s United subsidiary, and the Transport Workers Union, which represents dispatchers at its Continental subsidiary.
The airline also reached an agreement with its flight attendants union to begin what it called “a collaborative process of facilitated problem-solving” as it tries to negotiate a joint collective agreement with that workgroup. The two parties have requested the assistance of the National Mediation Board, and will meet with the Board’s representatives in future bargaining sessions.
A battle over flight-attendant furloughs in January highlighted the difficulties the carrier has faced in harmonizing contracts, but United said it hopes to move towards an agreement with the Association of Flight Attendants that is similar to the one that it came to with the two dispatchers unions.
United also said that it plans to begin negotiations for a joint bargaining agreement with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, the union that represents its aircraft technicians, in the near future.
United Airlines and United Express operate an average of more than 5,200 flights a day to 369 destinations over six continents. To date, the airline has reached joint collective bargaining agreements with a majority of its employees, including pilots, fleet and passenger service crew, and reservations workers.

Takakkaw Falls - Yoho National Park
This is a short hike, only 1.3 kilometers. It is paved and wheelchair accessible. The road to the trailhead is usually open at the end of June, closing early October so I suggest you call (250.343.6783) or stop in at the Visitor Centre in Field to find out if the road is open.
To get to Takakkaw Falls follow the Trans-Canada Highway for 23 km (14 mi) west of Lake Louise until Yoho Valley Road. When accessing from the West, drive 3.7 km (2.3 mi) east of Field on the Trans-Canada Highway and turn left on Yoho Valley Road. Follow this road for 13 km (8 mi) to the parking lot.
At 384 meters, these falls are the second highest in Canada.

Airbus building flying testbed to evaluate hydrogen combustion jet engine
Airbus, in partnership with CFM International (a joint company of GE and Safran Aircraft Engines), is developing an A380 flying testbed called the ZEROe Demonstrator to examine how hydrogen combustion can be used to power turbofan jet engines.
From an environmental point of view, hydrogen is an attractive alternative to conventional jet aviation fuel for an aerospace sector that has pledged to go carbon-free by 2050. In its gaseous form it's almost as easy to handle as natural gas, it burns readily and relatively clean, and leaves behind only water and 90 percent fewer nitrogen oxides emissions than kerosene.
At a superficial glance, it seems like an ideal substitute, but a closer look shows that there's a long way to go before we see hydrogen-burning jetliners taxiing up to the gate. For example, it would be easy to say that it does away with nasty fossil fuels, but most of the hydrogen produced on an industrial scale comes from petroleum through the steam-methane process. So using hydrogen as a green fuel would mean a huge shift in production to alternatives like biomass or electrolysis of water using non-fossil-fuel energy sources, and all of the infrastructure issues such a shift would entail.
If that wasn't enough, hydrogen has other problems. Though it has 2.5 times the specific energy of kerosene it has a much lower energy density and occupies four times the volume. This means that a one-for-one swap of hydrogen for conventional fuels would mean an aircraft could only fly a quarter as far.
To offset this, the hydrogen would have to be turned into a cryogenic state, where the it's converted to a liquid at -420 °F (-250 °C) that would require it to be carried in specially insulated tanks that would be four times as large as current tanks. This would require aircraft that would have a bulbous appearance or be designed with a blended body where the wing and the fuselage merge into one.
This introduces its own problems because these hydrogen planes would have a larger surface-to-volume ratio, which means more aerodynamic drag and reduced fuel efficiency. However, the hydrogen would be lighter than conventional fuel, which would introduce a trade off.
The alternative might be to simply live with a shorter range, but this is a problem because producing and handling cryogenic hydrogen is extremely dangerous and expensive, so it would be preferable to need as few refueling locations as possible along any given route.
On the other hand, it would be possible to design a hydrogen-powered plane that retains most of the conventional control systems and basic jet engine configurations, so certification wouldn't pose the major problem that an entirely new class of plane would entail.
In addition, using hydrogen in jet engines isn't a new idea. The first German jet engine made in 1937 used hydrogen for ground tests, and a Martin B-57B Canberra bomber flew for 20 minutes on hydrogen in 1957. Since then, there have been a number of studies into using hydrogen as an alternative form of jet fuel. A number of auto manufacturers are also exploring the potential of hydrogen combustion engines to power vehicles closer to the ground.
Now, Airbus and CFM International are working on a demonstrator for a hydrogen jet engine that is expected to fly in the next few years and could lead to the introduction of a zero-emission aircraft by 2035.
Under the new agreement, Airbus will provide an A380 aircraft for conversion into the ZEROe Demonstrator flying testbed with caudal hydrogen tanks installed in the fuselage and will determine the system requirements for the test engine, which will be a GE Passport turbofan with a combustor modified by CFM to burn hydrogen.
The new engine will not be powering the A380, which will use conventional engines. Instead, the hydrogen engine will be mounted on the fuselage toward the stern. This will allow the engineers to monitor the emissions of the hydrogen engine while in cruise mode without interference from the engines mounted under the wings.
"This is the most significant step undertaken at Airbus to usher in a new era of hydrogen-powered flight since the unveiling of our ZEROe concepts back in September 2020," said Sabine Klauke, Airbus Chief Technical Officer. "By leveraging the expertise of American and European engine manufacturers to make progress on hydrogen combustion technology, this international partnership sends a clear message that our industry is committed to making zero-emission flight a reality."
The video below introduces the ZEROe concept.

By George Munene
The halt in schooling caused by the coronavirus has left hundreds of thousands of young people at home for at least another four months at a time when the economy is estimated to have lost one million jobs and forecasts of economic contraction compete for gloom. However, some of our youth have turned to agriculture to earn through the break.
Frank Muthomi, a Bachelor of Science in Animal Science student at Egerton University is one such young man. At Nkubu town in Meru County the 24-year-old is now a month into establishing the Rambo F1 tomato variety on ¼ of an acre.
Some of the bananas on his farm are now ready for harvest and he’d hoped this would give him some upkeep money once schools reopened. Covid-19 has upended his plans and he’s used this opportunity to delve into the much more labour intensive but high value tomato farming.
To start off, he was simultaneously tending to his tomato seedlings in a nursery—they need one month to mature—whilst harvesting maize from the previous season, clearing and preparing his land to receive the tomatoes.
For manure, he bought five 100 Kg bags from Isiolo for Sh400 a bag—a lorry of the same goes for Sh35,000 and farmers contend that the goat manure from Meru’s neighbour county gives better yields as it is more easily taken up by crops than the locally sourced usual cow manure.
He also bought 15 Kgs of DAP fertiliser for Sh1050.
For every tomato plant he transplanted he mixed in fertiliser and manure then watered adequately to avoid scorching his plants. With his labour force of five, this took four days, and he paid each person Sh400 daily.

Pests are the bane of any tomato farmer, for Frank these are usually red spider mites, thrips and cutworms. Beforehand, he had read up on pest control and readied himself with a regiment of pesticides, which he alternately sprays once every week to avoid pests building up resistance.
He waters his tomatoes once every day, unless the weather is very cold. He also cautions farmers against the use of sprinklers—water shouldn’t get in contact with tomato leaves as this exacerbates cases of blight.
In the third week after transplanting, the tomato roots were established enough to top dress, which he did with DAP and compound NPK 23:23:23 fertiliser. He has also desuckered and staked his tomatoes—this reduces the number of branches making the plant healthier and encourages vertical growth, it also makes the plant suitable for support.
Frank is now readying for his first harvest. From the market study he has done of the nearby Nkubu and Kiigene markets, he could fetch at least Sh25 per kg for his tomatoes. He bought a 25 gram sachet of seed for Sh1,000 and hopes to harvest 4,000 kilograms from his crop, bringing in revenue of around Sh100,000. For the next season, he plans to grow cabbages.

Hamill to seek seventh heaven with Lisburn Distillery
Rory Hamill has joined his seventh Carling Premiership club after agreeing to sign for Lisburn Distillery.
Hamill, who had also been in talks with Institute, has turned out for Glentoran (twice), Coleraine, Ballymena United, Dungannon Swifts, Donegal Celtic and Cliftonville and after being released by the Reds is expected to go straight into the squad for the Whites’ league opener with the Glens at New Grosvenor tomorrow.
New Distillery boss Jimmy Brown was assistant manager to Roy Coyle while Hamill was in his first spell at the Oval and knows all about the forward, who on his day still has the ability to be one of the most exciting players in the league.
The once-capped Northern Ireland international, has become something of a nomad of late, but Brown will be hoping that his experience, alongside one of the signings of the summer in Glenn Ferguson will help to, finally, bring silverware to New Grosvenor.

Samsung on Wednesday 23 September 2020 unveiled the Galaxy S20 FE (Fan Edition). It’s basically an S20 that doesn’t have all the expensive parts while still housing all the key Samsung features we know and love.
The Galaxy S20 FE comes in six different colours, sports an OLED 6.5-inch display and has a 120Hz refresh rate for smooth graphics and animations. Here’s what you need to know.
Let’s be real, we all want an Ultra, or a Plus or any one of the other flagship devices currently on the market. However, not everyone can afford the astronomical price tag that comes with a premium device.
Enter the S20 Fan Edition: a premium device doesn’t skimp on specs. Samsung told The Verge that the Fan Edition wasn’t initially part of its 2020 lineup. Dieter Blom writes:
“[Samsung] tells me that when it originally launched the S20 lineup this past mark, an FE version wasn’t in its plans. But then the pandemic hit — Samsung’s S20 event was one of the last that many tech journalists attended”.
Samsung decided to manufacture the Galaxy S20 FE shortly after the March 2020 event.
Samsung heard you and unveiled S20 Fan Edition. It might be a budget device but it doesn’t lack power.
The Galaxy S20 FE is equipped with 4 500mAh battery, 6GB of RAM and the snappy Snapdragon 865 processor. It supports wireless charging, too, and is IP68 water resistant.
The phone is available in Cloud Navy, Cloud Red, Cloud Orange, Cloud Lavender, Cloud Mint, and Cloud White; the ‘Cloud’ being an indication of the matte finish. And that, my friends, means that fingerprints won’t be all that visible.
Unfortunately, the Fan Edition doesn’t sport Samsung’s premium camera options, but the Galaxy S20 FE’s camera is far from inferior. It has a 12MP main sensor coupled with a 12MP ultrawide lens and 8MP telephoto lens.
The front-facing selfie camera is a whopping 32MP. The Galaxy S20 FE 5G’s rear camera incorporates advanced artificial intelligence (AI) to pull in more light, so your shots come out detailed and colourful.
Of course, no Samsung device would be complete without the beloved Single Take feature. Single Take enables you to shoot for up to 15 seconds and then let your phone do all the hard work.
Once the process is complete, you’ll find a variety of optimised photos and videos in the Gallery.
The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE will be available from 2 October 2020, at a suggested retail price of $699. We will share further updates once Samsung provides information regarding launch date and price for South Africa.
In short, if you want a device with an all-day battery coupled with a professional-grade camera and powerful processor, then the Galaxy S20 FE is the phone for you.

Older parents enjoy better filial piety and care from daughters than sons in China
American Journal of Medical Research, 3:1, 244–272 (2016)
This study analyzes the unique datasets of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey using logistic regression and controlling for various covariates. Our analyses clearly demonstrate that disabled older parents are more satisfied with care provided by daughters than sons and that older parents enjoy greater filial piety from and better relationships with daughters than sons. The daughter-advantages of enjoying greater filial piety from and better relationships with children are stronger among the oldest-old aged 80+ than the young-old aged 65–79, and surprisingly more profound in rural areas than urban areas, while son-preference is much more prevalent among rural residents. We also discuss why China’s rigorous fertility policy until October 2015 and much less-developed pension system in rural areas substantially contribute to sustaining traditional son-preference and a high sex ratio at birth (SRB) when fertility is low. We recommend China take integrative public health policy actions of informing the public that having daughter(s) is beneficial for old age care, developing the rural pension system and implementing the universal two-child policy as soon as possible. We believe that these policy actions would help to reduce son-preference, bring down the high SRB, and enable more future elderly parents to enjoy better care from their children and healthier lives.

Drunk driving kills thousands of Americans each year. It is a catastrophe of responsibility that affects families and communities, and can make a parent’s worst nightmare a vivid reality.
The good news is these tragedies are entirely preventable. All it takes is a HERO to step up and offer their service as a designated driver.
First, let’s consider these facts from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration:
- More than 10,000 Americans die each year from alcohol-impaired vehicle crashes.
- An average drunk driver has driven 80 times before their first arrest.
- One in three people will be involved in an alcohol-related crash in their life.
While the report showed drunk driving fatalities having fallen by a third in the past 30 years, there is still clearly work to be done to eliminate drunk driving and prevent these senseless tragedies. Such a plight calls for proactive measures.
The best way to do that is to be proactive. Plan ahead by asking a friend or family member to be your designated driver.
At the heart of our HERO Campaign is the Designated Driver Pledge. By taking the pledge and encouraging your friends and family to do the same, you can make a difference and save lives! Your pledge could mean one less roadside memorial, one less crying mother and one less statistic.
Take the pledge today and remember: you can be a HERO to so many for doing something so easy!


Some say the party is different today, but is that really true? Ben Armstrong explains that the Democrat Party not only was a racist and bigoted party in the past, but it still is today.
Why does it seem like the left is always winning? Will elected Republicans take a stand or just give in to the bullies? Hey elected Republicans, if you think you are one of the strong ones, Ben has a challenge for you in this video!

Learn about the goals and objectives for Gresham-Fairview Trail. View maps illustrating the Metro Council's priorities for this regional trail corridor and learn more about what parts of the trail are already complete.
Tier I Objective
Tier II Objective
The Gresham-Fairview Trail will serve as a major north/south connector for cyclists and pedestrians between two regionally significant and heavily used trails: the Springwater Corridor and the 40-Mile Loop (along Marine Drive on the Columbia River). Separated from motorized traffic, the 5.2-mile trail will provide a safe north/south route for commuters as well as recreational users and provide access from Gresham to natural areas along Johnson Creek, Fairview Creek, the Columbia Slough and the Columbia River.
The Gresham-Fairview Trail has been constructed between Halsey and Burnside streets. A master plan was completed for the Gresham-Fairview Trail in 2002 and a refined alignment study was completed for the northern portion of the trail in 2007. Some acquisition of the trail corridor has been completed in the northern sections but gaps in the trail corridor remain.
This multi-use trail is a major north-south connection through the Gresham area. It connects the Springwater Corridor at Linneman Junction and crosses the eastside MAX light rail line at Ruby Junction. Continuing north to Blue Lake Regional Park, the trail ends at the Columbia River and connects to the existing Lewis and Clark Discovery Greenway Trail (part of the 40-Mile Loop) along Marine Drive. Acquisition of the remaining corridor is needed to complete the trail and secure an important eastern spine of the regional trail system.
In September 2007 the Metro Council approved acquisition plans for each of the 27 regional target areas. The Metro Council established these priorities with the input of natural resource and land use experts, scientists, citizens and local land managers. More than 500 people attended eight community open houses to share their ideas with Metro Councilors. Nearly 1,000 people filled out questionnaires ranking their priorities and offering ideas for partnerships and other ways to stretch the public's investment. The acquisition plans include a map, goals and objectives for each target area.
