The most brutal prison you will ever live in is the fear of what other people think.
It can paralyze you from moving forward in your life and putting your wants and needs first. I lived this firsthand for many years before finally realizing how much it affected my life and happiness.
About nine years ago, my life felt like it was falling apart, and I could not understand how I let this happen or why it was happening.
I was sitting at work knowing my life was at a crossroads, my marriage was failing, and work had become unbearable.
After dedicating 17 years of my life to working my way up the corporate ladder, I knew it was time to do something new because every day I woke up to go to work, there would be a pit in my stomach.
My wife and I had been together for seven years, and we were at an all-time low in our relationship. Barely speaking to one another, basically coexisting in a house like roommates that didn't get along.
I had lost my desire for my job or to fight for my marriage because I could no longer make anyone happy, especially myself.
So I decided to change my job to run a start-up company, thinking having a new job I enjoyed would allow me to gain clarity in my life and focus on improving my marriage.
Well, that's not exactly how it played out.
Shortly after taking the job, my marriage ended, and shortly after that, the company failed. Talk about not feeling like you are good enough, it hit me so hard, and I didn't see it coming, but I should have.
Oh shit...here we go again...my life was in a tailspin, and I had no idea what to do next.
I'd been doing my best to make everyone happy. I tried to be what work wanted me to while giving my wife anything and doing whatever she wanted.
I did all this thinking it would make everyone happy, and when it didn't, what did I do? I blamed everyone else for everything happening in my life because, after all, I was doing what they wanted me to do.
How could it be my fault?
That's when it hit me like a four hundred-pound gorilla right between the eyes. The only constant in my life issues was me; I chose to do all those things, and no one made me do them.
Damn, it's me and always has been and always will be. This happened because I completely overlooked anything I wanted or needed to be happy with. I wasn't filling my cup because I was too busy trying to fill everyone else's.
Something had to change, and I knew it was me. I finally realized the only person who can make you happy is you.
I took a long hard look in the mirror and realized if anything was going to change in my life, I had to be the one to change it.
Not only for myself but the people around me as well. I wanted people to accept me for who I was, not for who I thought they wanted me to be.
That's when I started my self-development journey to understand myself better, what happened, and how I could change my life for the better.
I spent months digging into my childhood, teen years, and early adult to the present day, and what I found out shook me to the core.
BAMN...there it was...
I was not being true to myself by putting my life on the back burner, and I was doing this to myself while not even realizing it. I was so busy putting everyone else ahead of myself to be who I thought everyone wanted me to be because I cared what others thought or how they might judge me.
Looking back on my life experiences revealed a pattern of my fear of expressing who I was. For example, in elementary school, I was placed in special classes, and other kids made fun of me for being what they called dumb because I didn't learn like them.
I had no idea I was unconsciously carrying this insecurity or letting it impact my life choices. I'm making decisions for my life with a bias that I'm not good enough.
Think about that for a second; imagine trying to get a job, making new friends, or keeping old ones, starting a romantic relationship while telling yourself you're not good enough, so take what they give you.
Sounds miserable, and it was.
I finally figured out why I felt lost and discouraged, and it was all due to living in a prison of fear of being judged by others, and I would do anything not to face that fear.
It was right under my nose this whole time, and I didn't even see it.
I spent so much time working on myself to have the necessary tools in my toolbox of life to break down my actions and understand my triggers.
Going through this allowed me to address them as they came up so I would not fall back into my old habits of making decisions that weren't good for me.
During this journey, I discovered we all have a superpower: to be yourself and let the world adjust. There is one caveat, lead with kindness and compassion.
Many people like me are afraid to embrace their superpower because they live in the same prison of fear of what other people think.
If you've ever felt the way or can relate to what I went through, I want to help you get through it.
I put together a short ebook that is 100% free ebook to help you get started embracing your superpower of being yourself.
Remember, there is no such thing as the "right time." In life, there's just time, and you can choose what to do with it.
Have a fantastic day.

Hi guys, I know I've not been around much but I'm having the most amazing (and busy ) time with my honours (and now working as well!) and planning my wedding haha. BUT I also have some amazing photos to share too. I am hoping to put those up in a few days or so.
Anyway, the real reason for this journal is that my dear friend smudge-92 's wonderful dog, Finn has been having some trouble. He's been sick and had multiple trips to the vet and may possibly (hopefully not!!) need surgery. As an unemployed uni student she is really struggling to pay back all the bills associated with the vet visits. I know Finn means the absolute world to her and she will do anything possible to help him, so if anyone is able to, please send a commission her way!! Even a small one, a few dollars, can make a difference. I know she would never want to ask for money for nothing, but as she draws using a tablet if you are able to grab a commission off of her it will only take up her time, and everything she receives will be able to go towards Finn's vet bills. I'll finish this off with some photos of the adorable little man.

|From:||Representative Dan Moul|
|To:||All House members|
I am preparing to re-introduce legislation that will amend the Public Welfare Code to require counties to conduct ongoing efforts to find family for children who become involved with a county Children and Youth Agency.
Some children who receive services from a Children and Youth Agency may have to be removed from their homes, and may be able to remain at home while their parents work to address the concerns that led them to become involved with the child welfare system. Either way, having a strong network of family (used broadly to include adult relatives and anyone who has a significant positive relationship with the child) support to help rectify concerns for the safety, permanency, and well-being for a child. Family finding is a vital tool that can identify and build positive connections between a child and his family and create a network of extended family support for the child during what is typically a very difficult time in his life.
Under my legislation, counties would be required to conduct family finding to build these networks of support for children involved with a Children and Youth Agency. Family finding would be conducted when the child is accepted for service by a county Children and Youth Agency, and at least annually until the child’s involvement with Children and Youth is terminated.
NOTE: This is a revised version of prior session HB 2499. The Children and Youth Committee held a hearing on HB 2499, and the legislation has been updated based on stakeholder feedback.

Of the most wicked species in the plant world, Mesquite takes the cake. It grows fast, spreads rampantly and is covered in thorns the length of roofing nails. The only common use for this species is as a fuel for grilling. Otherwise, throughout the Western and Southern portions of Texas, Mesquite plagues pastures, farmland and the right-of-ways of utility and pipeline companies.
Not only is it growing faster than the rate of Texas cookouts, but it’s also extremely difficult to kill. Mechanical clearance only spreads the seed of this gnarly brush and it comes back thicker and thornier than before it was cut. Controlled burns are attempted, but not only does this create a potentially dangerous situation, but it also spreads the bean-like seed pods, proliferating the problem. One method of elimination that has proven successful is herbicide application.
Edko has been aiding utilities in Texas with the control of this species for years. However, there’s more to eliminating Mesquite than just herbicide. Sometimes the hardest part is getting to the Mesquite to spray it. Edko has made considerable investments in equipment that can traverse the inhospitable terrain that Mesquite often lives in. Paired with our combined years of expertise in the state of Texas, this thorny beast doesn’t stand a chance.
Whether you’re a pipeline company, an electric utility or simply a landowner, Edko has a solution for you. Give us a call at one of our 4 Texas locations and allow us to help you defeat Mesquite.

The objective of the present study was to investigate the relationship between chronotype, lifestyle habits during the pandemic, and changes in sleep timing during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in youth. An online survey of adolescents and young adults (N = 449) was conducted in June 2020. Multivariate hierarchical regressions assessed the contribution of chronotype and changes in lifestyle habits to sleep timing during the COVID-19 pandemic in two age groups (12 to 17 years old and 18 to 25 years old).

The outbreak of COVID-19 has significantly impacted travel behavior. However, few studies have analyzed the impact of COVID-19 on adolescent travel behavior. This article analyzed the impact of COVID-19 on adolescent travel behavior using questionnaire survey data. This paper first used confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to explore the psychological factors related to the adolescents' perceptions about the severity of COVID-19. The study then established a logit model to study the effects of COVID-19 in different phases (before, during, and after the epidemic peak), demographic characteristics, and the role of psychological factors on their travel behavior.

COVID-19 has posed unique challenges for adolescents in different dimensions of their life including education, home and social life, mental and physical health. Whether the impact is positive or negative, its significance on the overall shaping of adolescents’ lives cannot be overlooked. The aim of the present study was to explore impacts of the pandemic on the adolescents’ everyday lives in Pakistan. Following ethical approval, this cross-sectional study was conducted through September to December, 2020 via an online survey on 842 adolescents with the mean age of 17.14 ± SD 1.48. Socio-demographic data and Epidemic Pandemic Impact Inventory-Adolescent Adaptation (EPII-A) was used to assess the multi-dimensional effects of the pandemic.

Since December 2019, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global pandemic. Currently, the COVID-19 pandemic is still ongoing. What changes have taken place in the obesity and obesity-related lifestyle behaviours of adolescents during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic? This study aims at analysing the changes in obesity and lifestyle behaviours of Chinese adolescents before and 1 year after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, providing evidence for the global strategies to respond to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on adolescent obesity.

In the United Kingdom, children are spending less time outdoors and are more disconnected from nature than previous generations. However, interaction with nature at a young age can benefit wellbeing and long-term support for conservation. Green space accessibility in the United Kingdom varies between rural and urban areas and is lower for children than for adults. It is possible that COVID-19 lockdown restrictions may have influenced these differences. In this study, we assessed parents' attitudes towards green space, as well as whether the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions had affected their attitudes or the amount of time spent outside by their children, via an online survey for parents of primary school-aged children in Cambridgeshire and North London, UK (n = 171). We assessed whether responses were affected by local environment (rural, suburban or urban), school type (state-funded or fee-paying) or garden access (with or without private garden access).

Studies show smoking and vaping
behaviors increase risk of contracting and worse symptoms of COVID-19.
This study examines whether past 30-day youth and young adult users of
marijuana, e-cigarettes, and cigarettes self-reported changes in their
use of these substances due to the COVID-19 pandemic; and
cross-sectional associations between perceived stress, nicotine or
marijuana dependence, and COVID-19–related changes in use. Participants
were 709 past 30-day self-reported substance users from the Texas
Adolescent Tobacco and Marketing Surveillance study (TATAMS; mean age =
19; 58% female; 38% Hispanic, 35% white). Multiple logistic regression
models assessed cross-sectional associations between perceived stress
and dependence and increased, decreased, or sustained past 30-day use of
marijuana, e-cigarettes, and cigarettes due to COVID-19 (e.g., “Has
your marijuana use changed due to the COVID-19 outbreak?”). Covariates
included age, race/ethnicity, socio-economic status (SES), dependence
(exposure: stress), and stress (exposure: dependence).

Children are particularly vulnerable to the psychological effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The disruption in daily life has impacted children significantly. Moreover, the increased worrying associated with the probability of getting infected or becoming seriously unwell due to infection can potentially precipitate anxiety disorders among children. This study aimed to determine rates of elevated anxiety symptoms in children with COVID-19 infection. It also explored whether there were any differences in terms of age, gender, and residency status. A cross-sectional, questionnaire-based study with 88 participants (children aged 7-13 years, 54.5% males, 45.5% females) from two institutional quarantine centers. The Spence Children’s Anxiety Scale and its validated Arabic version (self-reported questionnaires) were used to measure anxiety symptoms.

This study aimed to examine the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the lifestyle, habits, and behavioral differences in children, and their changing internet use habits. The research was planned as a cross-sectional study involving 4892 children aged 8 to 17 years attending schools in the city center of Trabzon, Turkey. Children’s daily living activities, social habits, mood and temperament changes, and internet use were investigated before and during the pandemic. In terms of problematic internet use, internet addiction rates were evaluated using the validated Turkish-language version of the Parent-Child Internet Addiction Scale (PCIAT-20).

Childhood obesity is a global epidemic and a chronic disease. Multifactorial determinants have long been linked with childhood obesity. These have been challenged with the onset of COVID-19 and the associated mitigation measures. The study aimed to re-highlight these determinants while exploring the effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on these pre-existing childhood obesity determinants, while providing evidence that may be beneficial for the post-COVID-19 recovery plan. A PubMed literature search (2016–2021) using the keywords, “childhood obesity”, “gender”, “sex”, “obesity in youth”, “obesity in adolescents”, “COVID-19″ and “SARS-CoV2” was performed.

Music publishing did not begin on a large scale until the mid-15th century, when mechanical techniques for printing music were first developed. Prior to this time, music had to be copied out by hand.
Italian, as they were very popular throughout Europe during the Renaissance. His printing shop used the triple-impression method, in which a sheet of paper was pressed three times. The first impression was the staff lines, the second the words, and the third the notes. This method produced very clean results, though it was time-consuming and expensive.
With his method, the staff lines, words and notes were all part of a single piece of type, making it much easier to produce. However, this method produced messier results, as the staff lines were often inexactly aligned and looked wavy on the page.

7 Things You Need To Know Today (February 28)
1. Wanna go to the moon?
SpaceX has announced its plans to send two private citizens to the moon next year, with initial training for the citizen astronauts to begin later this year. The project, done in partnership with NASA, is the culmination of years of planning and research. To millions of little girls and boys everywhere, the news is literally a dream come true. (SpaceX)
2. People in this country will outlive us all.
In a new study, researchers from the Imperial College London and the World Health Organization analyzed data about life expectancy from 35 different countries. Results showed that life expectancy will increase in all 35 countries by 2030—and South Korean women will have an average life expectancy of over 90 years old. (Science Daily)
3. There's new help on the way for those struggling with alcohol addiction.
A medicine long used to help wean addicts off of opioids may help alcoholics break the habit. A study published in the journal Addiction found that Naltrexone can reduce alcohol cravings by curbing the euphoric and calming effects of drinking. It's also worth noting that Naltrexone is known to have complicated and serious side effects, and are not meant to displace an integrated approach to recovery. (NPR)
4. There are some things you should know about the history of the sports bra.
Believe it or not, there was a time when women exercised in regular bras. But when runner (and multinational corporation owner) Lisa Lindahl found herself uncomfortable on her daily jogs in the 1970s, she decided to take matters into her own hands. One day, Lindahl pulled her husband's jockstrap over her chest and said, "You know what? This has potential." And from there, the sports bra was born. (WBUR)
5. Most Americans support an expansion of Medicaid, regardless of their party affiliation.
A new Kaiser family poll shows Americans value accessible healthcare. Ninety-five percent of Democrats, 84 percent of Independents and 69 percent of Republicans voted in favor of a Medicaid expansion under Obamacare. (Huffington Post)
6. Are men just babies or do we actually react differently to sickness?
The science isn't conclusive yet, but evidence suggests that male and female immune cells do react differently to invading viruses, with males getting hit harder with certain types of illness. We're still going to give guys a hard time for trying to turn a cold into a deathbed illness. (TIME)
7. The UN's latest enemy? Plastic pollution.
The United Nations just announced a new initiative called the Clean Seas campaign, which will work to reduce plastic pollution by challenging governments and individuals to rethink the way they use plastic. On the campaign website, people can commit to certain actions, such as not using disposable grocery bags, bringing their own coffee cup, avoiding cosmetics with microbeads, and pressuring firms to reduce excess packaging. (Treehugger)

Built into Gov. Chris Christie?s budget is an increase in fees expected to raise more than $50 million a year from court users.
While Gov. Chris Christie and lawmakers are jockeying for tax-cut supremacy, that doesn't mean the public is going to escape paying more for services in the coming year.
Built into Christie's budget plan is an increase in court fees expected to raise more than $50 million a year from court users.
The money - which amounts to a roughly 70 percent jump in court-fee revenue - won't pay for the judiciary's ongoing operations but will be diverted elsewhere in the budget, fund a digital upgrade for the courts and help pay lawyers to represent the poor in civil court. ...

Developmental Cell, Volume 12, Issue 5, 8 May 2007, Pages 727-738
Tony J.C. Harris and Mark Peifer
SummaryTissue morphogenesis requires assembling and disassembling individual cell-cell contacts without losing epithelial integrity. This requires dynamic control of adherens junction (AJ) positioning around the apical domain, but the mechanisms involved are unclear. We show that atypical Protein Kinase C (aPKC) is required for symmetric AJ positioning during Drosophila embryogenesis. aPKC is dispensable for initial apical AJ recruitment, but without aPKC, AJs form atypical planar-polarized puncta at gastrulation. Preceding this, microtubules fail to dissociate from centrosomes, and at gastrulation abnormally persistent centrosomal microtubule asters cluster AJs into the puncta. Dynein enrichment at the puncta suggests it may draw AJs and microtubules together and microtubule disruption disperses the puncta. Through cytoskeletal disruption in wild-type embryos, we find a balance of microtubule and actin interactions controls AJ symmetry versus planar polarity during normal gastrulation. aPKC apparently regulates this balance. Without aPKC, abnormally strong microtubule interactions break AJ symmetry and epithelial structure is lost.

- Drosophila Cip4 and WASp Define a Branch of the Cdc42-Par6-aPKC Pathway Regulating E-Cadherin Endocy...
Current Biology, Volume 18, Issue 21, 11 November 2008, Pages 1639-1648
Andrea Leibfried, Robert Fricke, Matthew J. Morgan, Sven Bogdan and Yohanns Bellaiche
Integral to the function and morphology of the epithelium is the lattice of cell-cell junctions known as adherens junctions (AJs). AJ stability and plasticity relies on E-Cadherin exocytosis and endocytosis. A mechanism regulating E-Cadherin (E-Cad) exocytosis to the AJs has implicated proteins of the exocyst complex, but mechanisms regulating E-Cad endocytosis from the AJs remain less well understood.
Here we show that Cdc42, Par6, or aPKC loss of function is accompanied by the accumulation of apical E-Cad intracellular punctate structures and the disruption of AJs in Drosophila epithelial cells. These punctate structures derive from large and malformed endocytic vesicles that emanate from the AJs; a phenotype that is also observed upon blocking vesicle scission in dynamin mutant cells. We demonstrate that the Drosophila Cdc42-interacting protein 4 (Cip4) is a Cdc42 effector that interacts with Dynamin and the Arp2/3 activator WASp in Drosophila. Accordingly, Cip4, WASp, or Arp2/3 loss of function also results in defective E-Cadherin endocytosis.
Altogether our results show that Cdc42 functions with Par6 and aPKC to regulate E-Cad endocytosis and define Cip4 and WASp as regulators of the early E-Cad endocytic events in epithelial tissue.

- aPKC Phosphorylation of Bazooka Defines the Apical/Lateral Border in Drosophila Epithelial Cells
Cell, Volume 141, Issue 3, 30 April 2010, Pages 509-523
Eurico Morais-de-Sá, Vincent Mirouse and Daniel St Johnston
SummaryBazooka (PAR-3), PAR-6, and aPKC form a complex that plays a key role in the polarization of many cell types. In epithelial cells, however, Bazooka localizes below PAR-6 and aPKC at the apical/lateral junction. Here, we show that Baz is excluded from the apical aPKC domain in epithelia by aPKC phosphorylation, which disrupts the Baz/aPKC interaction. Removal of Baz from the complex is epithelial-specific because it also requires the Crumbs complex, which prevents the Baz/PAR-6 interaction. In the absence of Crumbs or aPKC phosphorylation of Baz, mislocalized Baz recruits adherens junction components apically, leading to a loss of the apical domain and an expansion of lateral. Thus, apical exclusion of Baz by Crumbs and aPKC defines the apical/lateral border. Although Baz acts as an aPKC targeting and specificity factor in nonepithelial cells, our results reveal that it performs a complementary function in positioning the adherens junction in epithelia.

Echinoid Is a Component of Adherens Junctions That Cooperates with DE-Cadherin to Mediate Cell Adhesion

- Echinoid is an immunoglobulin domain-containing transmembrane protein that modulates cell-cell signaling by Notch and the EGF receptors. We show that, in the Drosophila wing disc epithelium, Echinoid is a component of adherens junctions that cooperates with DE-Cadherin in cell adhesion. Echinoid and β-catenin (a DE-Cadherin interacting protein) each possess a C-terminal PDZ domain binding motif that binds to Bazooka/PAR-3; these motifs redundantly position Bazooka to adherens junctions. Echinoid also links to actin filaments by binding to Canoe/AF-6/afadin. Moreover, interfaces between Echinoid− and Echinoid+ cells, like those between DE-Cadherin− and DE-Cadherin+ cells, are deficient in adherens junctions and form actin cables. These characteristics probably facilitate the strong sorting behavior of cells that lack either of these cell-adhesion molecules. Finally, cells lacking either Echinoid or DE-Cadherin accumulate a high density of the reciprocal protein, further suggesting that Echinoid and DE-Cadherin play similar and complementary roles in cell adhesion.

Borussia Monchengladbach have announced that it has signed United States international Fabian Johnson to a four-year-deal set to begin at the end of this season.
The news confirming Johnson’s transfer to Monchengladbach comes after weeks of speculation that the German-born player would leave Bundesliga side Hoffenheim this summer.
“We’ve fought for Fabian’s signature since the summer, but he has decided to leave us,” said Hoffenheim coach Markus Gisdol in early February.
Confirming the deal for Monchengladbach was director of sport Max Eberl. “Fabian Johnson is a very interesting player who can play attacking or defensive roles on either flank. He comes on a free transfer and we’re delighted he’s opted to join us.”
The 26-year-old began his professional career at Bundesliga 2 side TSV 1860 Munich in 2006 before moving on to top-tier Wolfsburg in 2009. After two years and 16 appearances for Die Wölfe, Johnson completed a transfer to Hoffenheim where he’s made 76 Bundesliga appearances, scoring four goals.
The move looks to be a bright one for Johnson as Monchengladbach have been working hard to strengthen a side that is currently in 6th place and in line for a Europa League spot. The full-back, who can also play in the midfield, has been capped 18 times for the United States and is expected to be a major factor in this summer’s World Cup.

Arctic sea ice volume can bounce back during cooler summers
But declining sea ice still the long-term trend
The volume of Arctic sea ice jumped in 2013, suggesting that sea ice may be surprisingly capable of bouncing back temporarily during cooler summers.
Data from the European Space Agency's CryoSat-2 satellite show that Arctic sea ice volume during its annual autumn minimum increased 41 per cent in 2013 compared to the year before, following an unusually cool summer, the researchers reported in the journal Nature Geoscience this week.
"The sharp increase in sea ice volume after just one cool summer suggests that Arctic sea ice may be more resilient than has been previously considered," they wrote in a more detailed analysis of results first reported by the space agency in 2013.
So the events of 2013 will have simply wound the clock back a few years on the long-term pattern of decline.- Andy Shepherd, study co-author
The Arctic has warmed unusually quickly due to human-caused climate change, and that has had a dramatic effect on the proportion of the Arctic covered by sea ice (also known as sea ice extent), which has declined about 40 per cent since the late 1970s. That, in turn, has raised concerns because ice strongly affects the Arctic environment. For example, snow-covered sea ice reflects sunlight, cooling the surrounding area, while dark, melted ice causes increased warming.
- Melting Arctic ice called 'economic time bomb'
The Cryosat-2 satellite was launched in 2010, and measured a 14 per cent decrease in sea ice volume from 2010 to 2012. The proportion of the Arctic covered by sea ice hita record low in 2011, according to data from NASA's Aqua satellite. The U.S.-based National Snow and Ice Data Center reported another record low in 2012.
But in 2013, a cooler summer meant there were fewer days when the ice melted. Compared to the average for 2010 to 2012, there was 33 per cent more ice in 2013. The ice was also 21 per cent thicker, on average, than the average for 2010 to 2014 – up to 3.5 metres thick in some places.
"Although models have suggested that the volume of Arctic sea ice is in long-term decline, we know now that it can recover by a significant amount if the melting season is cut short," said Rachel Tilling, lead author and a PhD student at University College London's Centre for Polar Observation and Modelling, in a statement.
But co-author Andy Shepherd, professor of Earth Observation at University College London and the University of Leeds, said Arctic temperatures are expected to keep rising in the future.
"So the events of 2013 will have simply wound the clock back a few years on the long-term pattern of decline."
Paul Kushner, principal investigator of the Canadian Sea Ice and Snow Evolution Network and a physics professor at the University of Toronto, who was not involved in the study, said the amount of the increase in sea ice volume in 2013 isn't surprising.
"It's consistent with a simple relationship the authors find between melting degree days (the number of days above freezing) and sea ice loss each year," he said in an email. "Even with global warming and even stronger Arctic warming, there will be years like 2013 and 2014 where things will cool down a bit."
In 2014, the sea ice volume declined by nine per cent, the study showed.
Without snow cover, ice changes faster
John Yackel, a sea ice scientist and climatologist at the University of Calgary who was not involved in the study, said it also demonstrates how quickly sea ice volume can change when the surface of the ice isn't covered by an insulating blanket of snow, as is happening more often.
"It allows the ice to respond to these changes in the atmosphere really quickly," he said. "It can either grow thick really quick if it's cold or melt really fast if it's warm."
He added that the thicker ice in 2013 was still very thin compared to the thicknesses of five to seven metres thick that were directly measured in parts of the Arctic in the late 1970s, and is likely not as cold as that thicker ice.
That means it's quite susceptible to melting the next summer. This summer there has already been a lot of Arctic sea ice melting, he said, and sea ice extent could be headed for another record low for its minimum extent this fall.
It already set arecord low for its maximum spread this past spring. However, in general, the new study found that the Arctic springtime sea ice volume is relatively stable.
Kushner thinks the real significance of the study is it shows how well the Cyrosat-2 satellite is able to measure sea ice thickness and volume – something that has been much harder to measure in the past than the extent of sea ice, which is not necessarily proportional to the volume or thickness.
"We are now for the first time going to be able to put solid numbers behind our understanding of how sea ice thickness and volume will vary in the coming years," Kushner added.

What’s on the grill? Inihaw na Baboy in the Air Fryer Ninja Foodi. The onset of the hot, humid summer made us yearn for outdoor barbecue favorites. But the weather patterns made us shift plans. A rainy day didn’t dampen our spirits, though. I discovered I can grill this all-time Filipino favorite on my Ninja Foodi, which has settings for an Air Fryer, as well.
Inihaw means grilled. We cook this grilled pork every summer on the outdoor grill. So, I can’t believe I haven’t discussed it or blogged about it since 2012.
This recipe is as simple and as basic as it gets. You only need to marinate the pork the night before and chill it in the refrigerator for flavors to penetrate and set in.
The next day, all you do is to turn on the Ninja Grill Air Fryer and cooking takes around 20 to 25 minutes, depending on the amount and thickness of the cuts. Once chopped, serve the pork straight off the grill. Chop them in cubes. They are savory, sweet and tangy all at once, with a garlicky vinegar dipping sauce on the side. The slightly burnt, crisp edges on the sides make way for the tender, moist center. Serve warm and savor the delights of summer.
Inihaw na Baboy - Grilled Pork - Air Fryer Ninja Foodi
- Ninja Foodi
- Mixing bowls
- 2 pounds pork belly or pork shoulder, fat trimmed, boneless
- 2 Tablespoons finely minced garlic, about 8 cloves
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper powder
- ½ cup cider vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup ginger ale
For dipping sauce:
- 1 cup vinegar, cider or white
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 pieces siling labuyo (bird's eye chilies)
- 2 stalks scallions, chopped
- cooking spray
- steamed or garlic rice
- Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add the whole slabs of pork to the marinade. Prick the meat with a fork randomly all over. Keep the marinated pork belly or shoulder in a resealable plastic bag and refrigerate overnight.
To cook in the Ninja Grill Air Fryer:
- Take the pork out of the refrigerator. Discard the marinade liquid.
- Spray the inside of the grill with cooking spray.Pre-heat the Ninja Foodi at 375 F for about 5 minutes.
- Place the whole slabs of pork belly inside the Ninja FoodiSpray a little of the cooking spray on the meat.Cook at 375 F for about 20 to 25 minutes. Flip the meat, using a pair of tongs, at the first 10 minutes. *If using the Ninja Foodi, it would be the air crisp function.
- When done, place the slabs of pork on a cutting board.Chop into 1-inch cubes or serving pieces. Serve warm immediately after cooking in the Ninja Grill.
To prepare dipping sauce:
- Combine all the ingredients in a bowl of mason jar. Mix well. Keep refrigerated till ready to serve.
To cook on the outdoor grill:
- Clean the grates well and remove previous food residue. Spray the grates with cooking spray.Pre-heat the outdoor grill to High.Place the entire pork slab on the grill. Grill for about 30 to 35 minutes per pound of boneless meat, turning after the first 12 minutes. When done, chop into 1-inch cubes. Serve warm immediately with a side dipping sauce and steamed or garlic rice.

A new patent dug up by MobileGeeks suggests Samsung is definitely, maybe working on a smartwatch with a round face. The company has pretty much covered every other entry in the smartwatch market—Android Wear, Android, Tizen and even some really cool, if not entirely necessary fitness tracker. With all the attention on Motorola’s Moto 360, it’s no surprise Samsung would explore a similar design. Let’s be honest: that’s how a watch, smart or not, should look.
Patents don’t always necessarily mean a consumer product is on the way, but with rumors of yet another Samsung wearable on the way, maybe this is it. Now it’s just a question of whether or not it’ll run Android wear, which is just gaining its footing in the wearable market, or its own home-brewed Tizen.
In addition to offering the timelessness of a rounded face, the patent also details more futuristic features, such as a gesture control system, and a charging port directly on the watch itself. Progress! The G Watch is nowhere near attractive, while the Gear Live is decent-ish. But the Moto 360? That seems to be the crowd favorite so far (even though it’s not available), so more options like that will just mean better-looking devices down the road.

Top 10 Best Free MMORPG Games 2010
In the video above I highlight my top 10 favorite free to play MMORPG games. I did not consider any new free to play games that are still in open beta when I made the video (May 15, 2010), so games not Mytheon and Battle of the Immortals were not considered, though they are both GREAT games. I also did not include any MMO Games (MMOFPS, MMO Strategy, Etc), and kept the list strictly about MMORPGs. The top 10 list is simply my personal opinion regarding the best MMORPGs and there’s really no way to figure out which game is objectively the best. Everyone like’s something different. Even if you disagree with the rankings of the game’s mentioned, the 10 MMORPGs mentioned are all top notch games that are all worth checking out. From #10 to #1 the games mentioned are Fiesta Online, Fly for Fun, Grand Fantasia, MapleStory, Ragnarok Online, Perfect World, Allods Online, Atlantica Online, Dungeons and Dragons Online and Runes of Magic.
If you disagree with the list that’s perfectly fine. Feel free to leave your own top 10 best free to play MMORPG list in the comments below.

Pet Shop Boys' Neil Tennant shares hilarious George Michael story
28 January 2020, 12:22 | Updated: 26 February 2021, 14:11
Pop legends George Michael and Neil Tennant shared a hilarious moment several years ago.
Speaking to the Guardian, Neil said that while he didn’t know George too well, they crossed paths here and there across 30 years before George's death in 2016.
Neil said that the last time he saw George was at the London Olympics Closing Ceremony in 2012. He said: “We were in these Portakabin-y dressing rooms and the person next to us is playing music unbelievably loudly.
"I said to our tour manager: ‘Can you go and ask him to turn that down, please?’.
“And suddenly the door flings open and George, who we hadn’t seen since he’d been in jail, comes in and says: ‘Did you just tell me to turn my music down?’ I said: ‘Yes, I did.’

In a blog post, Facebook says it’s come up with a robot capable of aerial fiber optic cable deployment.
It’s part of a bid by Facebook Connectivity to bring high-speed internet to remote parts of the world.
Facebook won’t install or control the fiber networks, but will instead license the robotic installation technology to internet service providers.
Fiber optic cable is one of the fastest ways to deliver the internet, because its bandwidth is thousands of times greater than, say, coaxial cables—those wires with a pin sticking out from the center that you may have screwed into your WiFi router at some point.
The cable itself only costs a few meager cents per meter, but the construction can be pricey, deterring installation in rural or developing regions. As a result, fiber optic networks are only available to about 30 percent of households across the U.S., according to a 2019 study, let alone the rest of the globe.
Facebook thinks it has the solution: a robot that crawls along existing power lines to install fiber optic cables without a full crew.
When Facebook engineers noticed the company’s electrical infrastructure is, relatively speaking, ubiquitous in rural African countries, they decided to capitalize upon the existing infrastructure. Uganda, for instance, only has an electrification rate of about 43 percent, according to the World Bank, but the country’s medium-voltage power grid (shown below in yellow) is still much more pervasive than its fiber network (shown in red).
In many cases, construction crews install fiber optic cables underground, digging out “microtrenches” for the network hardware. That’s an expensive practice you don’t really see with the electrical grid; outside of wealthy neighborhoods and packed cities, most power travels along aerial lines from a generation site, to substations, to communities.
“We realized that following the same grid with fiber could be an efficient way to build an end-to-end telecommunications network,” Karthik Yogeeswaran, a wireless systems engineer for Facebook, said in a company blog post.
Facebook plans to use a less-common fiber optic installation method, known as a helical wrap, or optical attached cable, to build internet access into pre-existing power lines.
Wayne Kachmar, a longtime cable designer, consulted with Facebook to come up with 200-micron-thick fibers with a high-strength, high-temperature, and track-resistant polymer coating. A typical fiber optic cable weighs about 250 pounds across a 1-kilometer span, but this cable only weighs 28 pounds across the same distance.
Electric utilities can attach 1-pound “repair splices” to existing power lines without creating more work (like surveying and analyzing the pole load, or moving attachments), so it doesn’t cost anything extra to add the splices on, since they’re so light. Facebook plans to take advantage of that concept for its fiber optic cables.
Since the 1980s, machines have been capable of wrapping fiber optic cable around existing power line conductors. Because these power lines are mostly devoid of hardware in between poles, usually to prevent fires, there’s room for a machine to travel along the length of it.
Enter Facebook’s fiber-wrapping robot.
For the fiber installation process to make sense, the machine has to install the cable while the power lines are energized. Power outages would be extremely inconvenient to nearby homes and business, not to mention counterintuitive to the process of better connecting those places.
So the wrapping robot must cross all of the obstacles on its route without any humans, who could be electrocuted if they intervene. The New York-based LC Robotics helped Facebook come up with the right design to accomplish that.
The final robot uses a pair of drive subsystems, including robotic grippers, to control forward motion; a lift subsystem that raises the robot’s full payload up over obstacles; and a rotation subsystem that helps the full machine balance itself on the electrical cable. A vision system helps the robot identify obstacles and change course appropriately.
As for the outside components, like the shape of the robot and any coatings, Facebook is still working to come up with the best combination of materials to keep weight to a minimum and to ensure safe operation.
In around 90 minutes, each robot will be able to install about 1 kilometer’s worth of fiber while getting around obstacles. The full crew will include two or three electric utility linemen, a pickup truck with a few kilometer spools of fiber, and one robot. The idea is to have a couple teams working in tandem along the electrical wires at a time.
Internet for All
Not only should this help bring faster internet to households that already have internet and want to upgrade, but the initiative will also fill in the connectivity gaps across the globe, Facebook says. According to a September 2019 report by the Broadband Commission for Sustainable Development, roughly 3.5 billion people—half the world’s population—still don’t have access to the internet at all.
Facebook won’t actually install the fiber, but will instead license the technology to third-party internet service providers and infrastructure firms. Facebook is giving NetEquity Networks, a San Francisco-based infrastructure sharing company, the first non-exclusive, royalty-free license to deploy its fiber network installation system. Facebook won’t own or operate any of the fiber optic cables.
“If successful, we believe this technology will allow fiber to effectively and sustainably be deployed within a few hundred meters of much of the world’s population,” Karthik Yogeeswaran, a wireless systems engineer for Facebook, said in the blog post. “We expect to see technology trials of this fiber deployment system next year.”

US Supreme Court decision to bar gene patents opens genetic test options
The June 13 U.S. Supreme Court's unanimous decision to bar the patenting of naturally occurring genes opens up important clinical testing options for a variety of diseases.
Several UW medical geneticists and laboratory medicine experts hailed the ruling's benefits for patients.
"We're thrilled," said Gail Jarvik, professor and head of the Division of Medical Genetics in the UW Department of Medicine. She explained that some patents on human genes restricted clinical care and research. Such patents posed an obstacle to developing and using multi-gene panels. These efficiently check mutations in scores of a patient's genes, not just one or two.
While the Supreme Court case focused on one company, Myriad Genetics Inc., that had patented two breast and ovarian cancer genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, the ruling against gene patents has far greater medical implications.
According to Jonathan Tait, professor of laboratory medicine and director of the Clinical Molecular Genetics Laboratory at University of Washington Medical Center, "The Supreme Court decision is broadly beneficial to UW Medicine, going well beyond removing limits on testing for these two cancer risk genes."
"We'd like to be able to perform genomic tests that screen for all the mutations implicated in the medical question at hand," Jarvik said. "In our inherited colon cancer program, for example, we'd also want the ability to report genetic results that might be important to a patient or family even if the mutation is not related to the condition for which we are seeing them."
Cancer treatment decisions also increasingly require multi-gene test panels on diseased tissue, as the presence or absence of hundreds of gene mutations helps predict which therapies will and won't work. One of these tests, UW-OncoPlex, was developed by a UW team led by Tomas Walsh, UW research associate professor of medicine in the Division of Medical Genetics, and Colin Pritchard, UW assistant professor of laboratory medicine. The test checks a cancer sample for mutations in 194 genes. The information can help improve the accuracy of diagnosis and the selection of proper therapy for solid tumors and blood cancers.
Along with the changes expected from the landmark court opinion, Myriad Genetics specifically was denied its previously exclusive right to isolate an individual's BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes.
A woman's odds of developing breast or ovarian cancer are greatly increased if she inherits a mutation in either of these tumor-suppressor genes.
The existence of the genes was first determined by a University of California Berkeley group led by Mary-Claire King, now a professor of medicine and genome sciences at the UW.
Myriad Genetics in Utah acquired several patents after establishing the genes' DNA sequence and exact location on the human genome. The company then designed medical tests to detect mutations in their patented genes.
Because of gene patents, the UW Department of Laboratory Medicine had to mask results on BRCA1 and BRCA2 in the cancer-risk gene panel conducted in the clinical labs at UW Medical Center and the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance. Samples from hundreds of patients a year, whose family history put them at risk for breast or ovarian cancer, had to be sent out for Myriad testing at a cost in excess of $4,000, despite the institutional expertise available here.
The UW's clinical laboratories had stopped performing their own methods to test for mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 after receiving a patent infringement warning letter.
Following the Supreme Court ruling, the UW Department of Laboratory Medicine announced that it would provide clinical testing for mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes as part of the BROCA Cancer Risk Panel. This lab test looks for mutations in more than 40 genes associated with breast, ovarian, colon, pancreatic, throat, kidney, and other cancers.
The BROCA panel emerged from UW genome research. Tait, who oversees UW Medical Center 's clinical genetics lab for patients, explained that BROCA testing, performed with next-generation DNA sequencing, detects all known classes of disease-causing mutations. Tomas Walsh, Mary-Claire King and other UW medical scientists first developed this technology to study hereditary risk of breast and ovarian cancer. They reported their methods in 2010.
"The Supreme Court decision is a victory for patients, their families, their physicians and common sense," King said. "A measure of its importance for our patients is that UW Lab Medicine now offers testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 and all other known breast cancer genes. The test was open for clinical use less than 24 hours after the decision was announced."
