Shared-nothing has become the dominant parallel architecture for big data systems, such as MapReduce and Spark, analytics platforms, NoSQL databases and search engines [Özsu & Valduriez 2020]. The reason is simple: it is the only architecture that can provide scalability at reasonable cost, typically within a cluster of servers. In the context of cluster computing, scalability can be further characterized by the terms scale-up versus scale-out. Scale-up (also called vertical scaling) refers to adding more power (processor, memory, IO devices) to a server and thus gets limited by the maximum size of the server, e.g. 32 processors. Scale-out (also called horizontal scaling) refers to adding more servers, called “scale-out servers”, in a loosely coupled fashion, to scale almost infinitely.
But what does shared-nothing mean? The term was first proposed by ACM Turing Award Professor Michael Stonebraker in 1985 (the ACM Turing Award is the equivalent of the Nobel prize in Computer Science) to characterize an emerging class of parallel database systems [Stonebraker 1985]. The problem faced by conventional data management has long been known as “I/O bottleneck,” induced by high disk access time with respect to main memory access time (typically hundreds of thousands times faster) and ever growing processor speeds. Then, the solution used by parallel database systems is to increase the I/O bandwidth through parallelism; having multiple disks that can be accessed by multiple processors in parallel. Note that the main memory database system solution, that tries to maintain the entire database in main memory, is complementary rather than alternative. In particular, the “memory access bottleneck” in main memory systems can also be tackled in a similar way, using parallelism.
In a parallel database system, the real challenge is to scale linearly with increasing workloads (see our blog post on Scalability), including more users and more data. For instance, if you double the size of your cluster, you would expect to support a workload that is twice as big. For an OLAP workload, this may mean dividing the response time of a large analytical query by two, whereas for an OLTP workload this may mean doubling the system throughput (e.g., number of transactions per minute). Note that these are very different objectives, which can be achieved with different architectures and techniques. The level of difficulty to implement basic functions (concurrency control, fault-tolerance, availability, database design and tuning, load balancing, etc.) varies from one architecture to the other.
Stonebraker proposed the term “shared-nothing” to better contrast with two other popular architectures, shared-memory and shared-disk. A shared-nothing architecture is simply a distributed architecture. This means the server nodes do not share either memory or disk and have their own copy of the operating system, hence they share “nothing” other than the network to communicate with other nodes [Valduriez 2018]. In the 1980s, shared-nothing was just emerging (with pioneers like Teradata and Tandem NonStopSQL) and shared-memory was the dominant architecture.
In shared-memory (see above), any processor (P) has access to any memory module (M) or disk unit through some interconnect. All the processors are under the control of a single operating system. One major advantage is simplicity of the programming model, which is based on shared virtual memory. Metadata (e.g. directory) and control data (e.g., lock tables) can be shared by all processors, which means that writing database software is not very different than for single processor computers. In particular, load balancing is easy since it can be achieved at runtime by allocating each new task to the processor with least load. However, the major problem with shared-memory is limited scalability and availability.
With increasingly quick processors (even with larger caches), conflicting accesses to the shared-memory increase rapidly and degrade performance. Furthermore, since the memory space is shared by all processors, a memory fault may affect most of them, thereby hurting data availability. Depending on whether physical memory is shared, two approaches are possible: Uniform Memory Access (UMA) and Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) (see Figure 2). UMA is the architecture of multicore processors while NUMA is used for tightly-coupled multiprocessors. Interestingly, today’s servers are NUMA, which introduces many difficulties for database managers since they were built for UMA. In particular, seeing as all threads can access memory from an CPU, this results in a high fraction of accesses to remote NUMA memory. This results in exhausting the memory bandwidth to remote memories that is significantly smaller than the memory bandwidth of the local memory. Most database servers just do not scale up linearly in NUMA and a lot of work is needed for them to become NUMA-aware.
In a shared-disk architecture, any processor has access to any disk unit, but exclusive (nonshared) access to its main memory. Each processor–memory node is under the control of its own copy of the operating system and can communicate with other nodes through the network. Then, each node can access database pages on the shared-disk and cache them into its own memory. Shared-disk requires disks to be globally accessible by the nodes, which requires a storage area network (SAN) that uses a block-based protocol. Since different processors can access the same page in conflicting update modes, global cache consistency is needed. This is typically achieved using a distributed lock manager, which is complex to implement and introduces significant contention. Shared-disk has three main advantages: simple and cheap administration, high availability, and good load balance. Database administrators do not need to deal with complex data partitioning, and the failure of a node only affects its cached data, while the data on disk is still available to the other nodes. Furthermore, load balancing is easy because any request can be processed by any node. The main disadvantages are cost (because of the cost of the SAN) and limited scalability, caused by the potential bottleneck and overhead of cache coherence protocols for large databases. In the case of OLTP workloads, shared-disk has remained the preferred option as it makes load balancing easy and efficient. However, their scalability is heavily limited by the distributed locking that causes severe contention and limits the scalability to a few nodes.
Today, a shared-nothing architecture (see Figure 4) is cost-effective as servers can be off-the-shelf components (multicore processor, memory and disk) connected by a regular Ethernet network or a low-latency network such as Infiniband or Myrinet. To maximize performance (yet at additional cost), nodes could also be NUMA multiprocessors, thus leading to a hierarchical parallel database system [Bouganim et al. 1996]. By favoring the smooth incremental growth of the system by the addition of new nodes, shared-nothing provides excellent scalability, unlike shared-memory and shared-disk. However, it requires careful partitioning of the data on multiple disk nodes. Furthermore, the addition of new nodes in the system presumably requires reorganizing and repartitioning of the database to deal with the load balancing issues. Finally, fault-tolerance is more difficult than with shared-disk, seeing as a failed node will make its data on disk unavailable, thus requiring data replication. It is due to its scalability advantage that shared-nothing has been first adopted for OLAP workloads, in particular data warehousing, as it is easier to parallelize read-only queries. For the same reason, it has been adopted for big data systems, which are typically read-intensive.
A final question is: can shared-nothing be used to support big write-intensive transactional workloads as well? NoSQL (see our blog post on NoSQL), in particular key-value systems, have excellent horizontal scalability, i.e., scaling over a cluster of nodes. However, since they did not manage to scale transactional management, they gave up on transactional consistency; choosing to focus instead on scalability. However, it is possible to provide both scalability for data management and transactional management (see our blog post on the CAP theorem). Yet, it is a hardcore problem that only a few systems in the NewSQL category have managed to solve (see our blog post on NewSQL).
There are three main parallel database architectures: shared-memory, shared-disk and shared nothing. Shared-memory is used for in-memory databases, and shared-disk for small clusters. Shared nothing is becoming the dominant technology since it works anywhere, from on-premise cluster to private or public cloud. The main challenge is to attain linear scalability and transactional (ACID) consistency. Initially, key-value NoSQL systems have been able to achieve linear scalability, but by sacrificing transactional consistency. More recently, a few NewSQL systems have been able to achieve both linear scalability and transactional consistency.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court, declaring that public officials may not seek to advance or promote religion, on Monday struck down the posting of the Ten Commandments on the walls of two Kentucky courthouses.
But the court did not set a clear rule for deciding when the government had gone too far in permitting religious displays, and the decision probably wasn't the last word.
In its 5-4 ruling, the court said the commandments were "a sacred text" that carried an "unmistakably religious" message. For that reason, their prominent display in a government building violates the Constitution's ban on laws "respecting an establishment of religion."
The court's opinion, coming on the final day of its term, narrowly holds the line on the separation of church and state. The government and its officials must be neutral toward religion, the court majority said, and may neither promote nor discourage it.
However, in a separate 5-4 ruling, the justices upheld as constitutional a granite monument depicting the Ten Commandments that sits among 17 other monuments and 21 plaques on the grounds of the Texas Capitol in Austin.
The pair of rulings suggests that the Ten Commandments may be displayed inconspicuously among other documents or monuments, but cannot be made the focus of attention in a courthouse or government building.
Justice Stephen G. Breyer, who voted to strike down the display in the Kentucky courthouse, cast a fifth vote to uphold the Texas monument. He called it a "borderline case," but stressed that the 44-year-old granite monument did not look to be a religious display. It sits among monuments to war veterans, Boy Scouts, Texas' early pioneer women and others.
The Fraternal Order of Eagles erected the Ten Commandments monument in 1961 as part of its campaign to combat juvenile delinquency, Breyer noted. Visitors to the Capitol grounds might not even notice the monument, he said.
"The Texas display falls on the permissible side of the constitutional line," Breyer concluded. "This display has stood uncontested for nearly two generations.... As a practical matter [it] is unlikely to prove divisive."
In announcing the Kentucky ruling, Justice David H. Souter noted that in the facade above the justices' courtroom, there were stone carvings of 18 ancient lawgivers. One of them is Moses shown holding a tablet. This partial depiction of the Ten Commandments is not objectionable, Souter said, because no reasonable observer would see it as a promotion of religion.
But it is a different matter, he said, when officials prominently display the biblical commandments so that all can see a religious message.
"Context matters," Souter said.
That distinction pleased advocates of church-state separation.
"Everyone interested in religious freedom should want the government to stay neutral when it comes to religion," said Ralph Neas, president of People for the American Way.
But leaders of several Christian groups attacked the Kentucky decision. Roberta Combs, president of the Christian Coalition of America, called it "tyrannical" and said it "showed once again the nation's top court is completely out of step with the American people."
The Ten Commandments cases came before the court during a time of renewed dispute over the role of religion in public life.
President Bush often has spoken of the importance of religion, and he has promoted a faith-based initiative to direct taxpayer money to church-sponsored groups. Administration lawyers endorsed the displays of the Ten Commandments in the Kentucky and Texas cases, arguing that the government should be allowed to give "official acknowledgment" to religion.
The justices in the Kentucky case majority seemed just as determined to hold the line.
"The divisiveness of religion in current public life is inescapable," Souter said. "This is no time to deny the prudence of understanding the establishment clause [of the 1st Amendment] to require the government to stay neutral on religious belief, which is reserved for the conscience of the individual."
He and Justice Sandra Day O'Connor said they saw a danger in allowing the government to take sides on religious matters.
"Allowing the government to be a potential mouthpiece for competing religious ideas risks the sort of division" that the Constitution sought to avoid, O'Connor said. "Those who would renegotiate the boundaries between church and state must therefore answer a difficult question: Why would we trade a system that has served us so well for one that has served others so poorly?"
Justices John Paul Stevens, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Breyer joined them.
Justice Antonin Scalia responded to the Kentucky ruling with strong dissent, accusing his colleagues of ignoring religion's role in the nation's founding.

ALBEMARLE — In a recent social media post, Rep. Wayne Sasser, a Republican who represents most of Stanly County in the N.C. House, blasted the state’s guidance on COVID-19 control in schools and defended local school boards who are being forced to abide by it.
“Just read the latest Covid-19 Control Measure in Schools,” Sasser said. “Everyone who has a question about why kids have to wear mask in school should read this. The mandate from the state is about forcing everyone in public education to be vaccinated.”
Sasser said that the guidance from Gov. Roy Cooper’s Department of Health and Human Services makes it virtually impossible to run a school without mandating vaccines and masks. He cited the different rules on quarantining, which require no time away for the vaccinated, as few as 7 days away for those wearing masks, but 14 days for the unmasked.
He said that because of this, the school board is being forced to require masks and push vaccines in order to stay open, since “You cannot run a school of 8000 kids with everyone with Covid or exposed to Covid out of class for 14 days.” But by tightening the rules, Sasser believes local school boards are absorbing a lot of the anger that would more rightly be directed at the state.
“These rules are just the state’s way of forced vaccination without taking the grief,” Sasser said in the post. “Don’t shoot the messenger or the school board.”
On Aug. 3, when the Stanly County Board of Education voted to require masks, many of the members indicated that they were against any mask requirements, as they had said publicly before, but that their hands were now tied because of these state directives. Without masks, too many students and staff would be out for extended periods, and the funding for virtual classes was no longer available.
The only member of the board to vote against the mask mandate, Bill Sorenson, indicated that even though he was voting against masking, he believed his colleagues were right that they were left with few choices. To Sasser’s recent post, Sorenson responded, “I don’t have words other than to say. THANK YOU!! You articulated my position from day 1.”
Sorenson added that he believed the teachers unions and national Democrats were pushing health authorities to require these kinds of mandates.
“Maybe since you sir are respected medical expert others may start listening!” Sorenson told Sasser.

One of the primary goals of asthma management is to ensure that all children with a diagnosis of asthma are able to lead a normal healthy life.
A child with well controlled asthma should be able to sleep through the night without coughing or wheezing, should not miss school due to frequent asthma flares, and should be able to participate in athletic activities and sports as well as anyone.
Don’t Let Asthma Hold You Back!
The goal in pediatric asthma is to take control of one’s asthma so that it doesn’t take control of you. With good management, a child can not only plays sports, but can excel in sports. There are many elite athletes who have achieved excellence in their sport; there are even Olympic athletes who have asthma, and have set world records!
It is important to let your teacher and coach know that your child has asthma. You should also provide them with a copy of your asthma action plan and physician’s medication order form. Your child should have an albuterol inhaler available to him/her either in the school office, YMCA, after school program, with his/her coach for out of school sports, or on his/her person when playing sports.
What causes asthma in kids?
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways of the lungs. It consists of airway inflammation and excessive mucous production which causes airway narrowing, as well as muscle tightening around the airways which in turn also causes airway narrowing.
Researchers believe that heredity plays a major role in the tendency to develop asthma. Children who are likely to have asthma have inherited genes that make them susceptible to asthma. So, if a parent or sibling has allergies or asthma, it is likely you are at risk of also developing asthma. Asthma is caused by the interaction between a susceptible child and something in the environment.
Triggers in the environment cause the airways to become swollen and constricted, which then brings about asthma symptoms; these triggers can include dust, pollen, smoking and changes in weather. Children who were born prematurely, or those who have had a certain viral respiratory illness as babies, are also at risk of developing asthma.
Asthma in younger children (toddlers and preschoolers) is generally caused by a viral infection. Most pediatric asthma is allergic asthma. Currently, asthma cannot be cured but it can be controlled.
What is “exercise induced” asthma?
In some children, exercise alone might be the only trigger for their asthma, though many children with asthma experience symptoms with physical activity and exercise. If not properly diagnosed and treated some children might avoid exercise altogether. Children with exercise induced asthma might experience shortness of breath, chest tightness, cough or wheezing 5-20 minutes after exertion begins. These symptoms tend to occur more frequently when the air is cold and dry or with strenuous activity.
Treating exercise induced asthma with medications prescribed by your physician, as well as following some simple tips, can allow almost all children to be able to exercise and play their favorite sport.
Sports less likely to cause asthma symptoms:
- Team sports that involve short bursts of energy (baseball, football, volleyball, tennis, wrestling, gymnastics)
Sports more likely to cause asthma symptoms:
Endurance sports that require more continuous activity are more likely to trigger asthma. These include:
- Long distance running
Tips for exercising with asthma:
- Warm up before you exercise
- Cool down slowly after exercise
- Exercise in a warm place, like a gym
- Cover your nose and mouth with a loose scarf during cold weather
Are there times when a child should NOT participate in a sport?
A child should not participate in a sport if his asthma is currently unstable or not in control. Symptoms of an asthma flare are: cough, wheezing, shortness of breath, chest pain/tightness. Pollen and air pollution are common triggers for many children, so a child may want to avoid outdoor exercise during dangerous air quality days.
How young can a child develop asthma?
Infants frequently have wheezing associated with viral respiratory infections. This is not always asthma, however some of these children will later on receive a diagnosis of asthma. It is difficult to determine after just one or two wheezing episodes if a child has asthma. “Not all that wheezes is asthma”. If respiratory symptoms of cough, chest tightness or wheeze are frequently present without a viral infection, such as when the child is exposed to certain triggers (cigarette smoke, animals, exercise, pollen), then the diagnosis of asthma is likely to be made.
Signs & Symptoms of Asthma in Children
Signs and symptoms of asthma in children include:
- Shortness of breath
- Chest pain
Other possible signs/symptoms of asthma include:
- Persistent cough that wakes a child up more than two nights a month
- Persistent cough that occurs more than twice a week during the day
- Cough, wheezing, shortness of breath or chest pain during or after exercise
- Significant coughing/wheezing with each cold
Signs of Severe Respiratory Distress
Seek medical help immediately if your child experiences the following:
- Breathing hard and fast
- Pulling in of ribs or stomach muscles (retractions)
- Opening and closing of nostrils (flaring)
- Inability to talk
- Dusky or blue color to lips, nails and face
When should your bring your child to a doctor for asthma?
If your child experiences the above symptoms routinely, especially after having a cold or other viral infection, during or after exercise, or is woken up at night by these symptoms, they should see their doctor.
Make an appointment with your primary doctor or pediatrician to have your child evaluated for possible asthma. You should also bring your child to see a doctor if he/she has had a chronic cough for several weeks. Cough is a major symptom of asthma, but it is important to note that “not all that coughs or wheezes is asthma”.
Determining Whether Your Child Has Asthma
In order to determine whether your child has asthma, your doctor will take a very detailed history. They will also want to know:
- How many days a week your child coughs or wheezes during the day, during the night, or with exercise
- If your child has any seasonal allergies to pollen or mold
- Whether anyone in the home smokes
- Whether there is a family history of eczema or allergic rhinitis
Your doctor will then perform a physical exam. During this exam, your doctor will:
- Look for signs of inflammation in the nose
- Listen to your child’s breathing for signs of wheezing
- Look at your child’s chest and stomach muscles to see if they are pulling in and out when breathing
- Look at your child’s skin for signs of dry skin/rash/eczema.
More detailed testing could involve a chest X-ray, allergy testing via a blood draw or skin pricks, or a peak flow assessment to see how fast your child can blow air out of his lungs.
An even more detailed test is a pulmonary function test, which uses a computerized machine called a spirometer to measure the amount of air your child can blow out from his lungs over time. All of these methods assist your doctor in making a diagnosis of asthma.

Distinguish between animal protein and vegetable protein
Animal and plant proteins are indispensable components in the formation and development of the human body. Understanding the differences, pros and cons of animal or plant proteins will help us make the most of their role in the body.
1. Learn about protein
Protein, also known as protein, is a component that can be found everywhere in the body (muscles, muscles, skin, bones, hair...). Protein plays a role in creating enzymes that promote chemical reactions and help red blood cells hemoglobin carry oxygen throughout the body.
According to research, in order to have a complete human body, it requires at least 10,000 different proteins combined. The deficiency of animal or vegetable protein will cause slow growth, muscle deficiency, resistance decline, heart and respiratory system weakness.
Protein can be found in many foods of animal or plant origin. Protein is divided into 2 types, including:
Animal protein: Found in fish, meat, eggs, milk, seafood....; Plant Protein: Found in rice, soybeans, corn, noodles, other legumes....
2. How to distinguish animal protein and vegetable protein?
Each animal protein or vegetable protein has different sources, so there are differences in each type that are hard to see with the naked eye.
2.1 About amino acid content During digestion, protein will be broken down into amino acids, there will be about 20 essential and non-essential amino acids used by the human body. The body cannot make essential amino acids but can produce non-essential amino acids and these amino acids are obtained through the diet.
Both proteins and amino acids play an important role in most metabolic processes in the human body. While animal proteins contain a good balance of all the amino acids needed by the human body, some plant proteins contain only a small number of essential amino acids that the body needs.
In particular, scientific studies also prove that foods containing animal protein contain more nutrients than foods containing plant protein, on the contrary, there are also many nutrients found in plants without present in animals. Therefore, using a balance of foods containing animal protein and vegetable protein is the best way to make the most of the nutrients that the body needs.
2.2 In terms of health benefits In fact, a diet rich in plant protein or vegetarian will bring many health benefits to users, research has proven that vegetarians will control Better weight control, low cholesterol and stable blood pressure, effectively preventing the risk of stroke, cancer and death from heart disease is also lower.
On the other hand, using a diet rich in plant-based protein will also contribute to a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes. A plant-based protein-rich diet will provide many health benefits to users, possibly due to the diet combined with an overall healthy lifestyle, not necessarily the difference between animal and vegetable protein. object.
Compared with plant protein, animal protein also has a positive effect on health although not as healthy. Scientific research has shown that consuming low-fat poultry, fish or dairy products helps to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Eating eggs will help improve cholesterol levels and lose weight effectively. Regularly eating animal protein will help increase lean muscle mass and reduce age-related muscle loss.
2.3 About nutritional value Foods containing protein often bring a lot of nutritional value, in which animal protein tends to bring more nutrients than vegetable protein, specifically:
Vitamin B12 : This vitamin mainly mainly found in meat, fish, poultry, dairy products...; Vitamin D: Found in fatty fish, eggs, milk... Some plant-based foods also contain vitamin D, but not much; DHA: Scientific name is docosahexaenoic acid, is an essential omega-3 brain fat found in fatty fish; Heme iron: Found in many types of meat, especially red meat. Compared with non-heme iron from plant foods, heme iron is better absorbed in the human body; Zinc: Found in many animal protein sources such as pork, beef, lamb.... Research has also shown that the human body will more easily absorb zinc from animals than from plants; There are also many nutrients necessary for the development of the body found in plants that are not available in animals, so it is very important to use scientific and rational food from animals and plants. and necessary.
In summary, animal protein and vegetable protein are both important and necessary substances, each of which plays a different role in the process of formation and development in the body, using plant and vegetable protein. Smart objects will help make the most of the benefits they bring to the health of the user.

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has announced the results of its latest pedestrian-detection tests. The goal of the tests were to test the automatic emergency braking systems in nine small SUVs.
The 2019 Honda CR-V, 2019 Subaru Forester, 2019 Toyota RAV4 and 2019 Volvo XC40 earn the highest rating of superior for pedestrian crash prevention. The 2019 Chevrolet Equinox, 2019 Hyundai Kona, 2019 Kia Sportage, 2019 Mazda CX-5 and 2019 Nissan Rogue received an advanced rating. The 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander received the lower basic rating, while the 2019 BMW X1 doesn’t receive any credit for a rating. Pedestrian detection is standard on the Forester, RAV4, Rogue, X1 and XC40.
The pedestrian autobrake test is the fourth crash avoidance evaluation in the Institute’s quiver of safety tests.
“We want to encourage manufacturers to include pedestrian detection capabilities as they equip more of their vehicles with automatic emergency braking systems,” stated David Aylor, the Institute’s manager of Active Safety Testing. “We also want to arm consumers with information about these systems so they can make smart choices when shopping for a new vehicle.”

This memoir was a powerful read and I would have have had this book read in a night if I didn't have to get up so early the next day, yes it's that good! Reading books like this gives you a better understanding of what really happened to certain people in certain countries that history books don't show at all. Even now, I'm still thinking about everything that Krysia and her family went through during that time and you can only pray that nothing like that would ever happen again.
Thank You to Krystyna Mihulka for sharing your story with the world so people can have a better understanding of what really happened!

NY GOP tilts LI-ward
Each state GOP organization gets to pick two representatives to the Republican National Committee. Both serve on the 168-member RNC alongside that state's party chairperson. Last year, there were no Long Islanders in New York’s three seats; now there are two. And the change isn’t random.
Three months after Ed Cox of Westhampton returned as New York State chair — succeeding new Rep. Nick Langworthy of western New York — the state party committee has elected Joe Cairo, the Republican chairman in Nassau County, to one of the at-large slots. Cairo replaces another western New Yorker, the oil-pipeline businessman Charles P. Joyce.
The third national committee person from New York, Jennifer Saul Rich, a longtime Fifth Avenue, Manhattan resident, remains on the RNC.
Cairo was thrust into a difficult spot as county chairman when Rep. George Santos (R-Nassau/Queens), whom he gave the nomination with no primary challenge, turned out to be a poster boy for political fraud, and Cairo responded by demanding his resignation and vowing Santos would never get the line again.
While putting Cairo in the national spotlight, his demands that the freshman in CD3 quit went unheeded. As it happened, Cairo’s RNC ascension, voted Monday, was announced Friday — the same day that the people who co-signed Santos’ $500,000 bond in his criminal fraud case were described by his attorney as family members.
But as much as Santos’ win marred it, that wild-card election was part of a successful 2022 red wave that turned the Island’s four-member congressional delegation all-GOP alongside local and county successes. As a result, Cairo, the county’s OTB chairman, becomes a logical choice for Cox and the RNC going into next summer’s national convention.
“Nassau County Republican Chairman Joe Cairo will be a great National Committeeman,” Cox said in a news release Friday. “He has demonstrated that he can raise funds and mount winning campaigns. I am eager to continue working with him as he serves in his new capacity.”
Responded Cairo: “I am excited to continue my work with a great State Republican Chairman, Ed Cox, to realize more Republican victories at every level.”
That sounds like a long-term shift of regional diplomacy. Cairo’s predecessor, the late Joe Mondello, had been a rival of Cox, who in 2009 ran against and succeeded Mondello for state chairman, the first time Cox held the post.
Do this week’s changes also end the New York party’s reflexive fealty to the defeated and indicted former President Donald Trump? Early last year, committee members Langworthy, Rich and Joyce voted on the 168-member RNC to denounce then Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for joining the House probe of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

Huntington tries housing … again
Even as housing legislation died — again — in Albany this week, the Town of Huntington is preparing to consider its own effort to expand housing, by legalizing accessory dwelling units, or ADUs, in basements and detached garages.
As the town gears up for a public hearing scheduled for Tuesday, it seems the legislation may have the support of as many as four of the five board members — Sal Ferro, Gene Cook, and the legislation’s co-sponsors Joan Cergol and Dave Bennardo. Town Supervisor Ed Smyth is refraining from taking a position until after the hearing, a spokeswoman said.
But the potential for a supportive vote isn’t stopping the opposition from stepping up its efforts. That starts with a two-page mailer that encourages residents to stop the plan, by calling Smyth and the town board members to voice their dissent. The flyer is labeled as coming from Citizens for a Sustainable Huntington.
No one in town leadership or advocacy seems to know who that group is, and the group has no discernible presence on social media or elsewhere online. But the layout of the flyer is strikingly similar to an opposition mailer that emerged in the wake of the town’s last attempt to legalize ADUs late last year, which mentioned Save Huntington Village, an activist group that has protested development.
“Huntington Town Board proposes abolishing single-family zoning,” the flyer says, falsely. “Governor Hochul twice tried to pass similar ill-conceived zoning, which was rejected by residents and legislature. But now the Town Board thinks it’s good for us???”
The flyer, which features a hand-drawn cartoonish picture of blocks of homes with basements for rent, cars parked in front, and a home’s falling sales price, focuses on the impact on safety, water, infrastructure and taxes.
“The Huntington Town Board’s affordable housing plan … Destroy our suburban single-family neighborhoods, packing in apartments, requiring more government services, raising our property taxes, and lowering the value of our homes,” the flyer states.
Advocates, however, say the mailer isn’t accurate, noting that home values are expected to rise with the legalization of basement and garage apartments, and that safety has been accounted for, noting that the fire marshal will be alerted to all units, and that sprinklers will be required.
“It was inaccurate, it was divisive, and it seems to me it came from a position of certain privilege,” said housing advocate Pilar Moya, the executive director of Housing Help.
Moya noted that she works with Huntington homeowners who have trouble paying their mortgages, for whom an accessory apartment could be a helpful source of income, and with young residents and seniors looking for affordable housing, for whom accessory apartments could be a viable option.
Basement apartments were legal in Huntington until 2019, when the town board banned them as part of a larger effort to revise accessory dwelling and affordable housing code. Late last year, the town board first proposed re-legalizing basement apartments, but Ferro withdrew that effort in the face of opposition, saying he hoped to rework it to address concerns.
That reworked effort will come up for discussion Tuesday.

Howdy doody blogaroos. Squirmy put-that-down Wormy here on a marvelous Monday. We had super duper weather this weekend, so we got lots of good walks. Which of course, means photos. Honestly, can My Enforcer ever resist the urge to take photos of us? We’re on a walk and BINGO- she says “ooooooo, look at that.” And she makes us pose. Mind you, she does carry the extra good treats for modeling shots. So the pay is good.
Today according to the crazy calendar is something called “Defy Superstition Day.” So I guess you go walk under ladders, step on cracks in the sidewalk, smash some mirrors and open some umbrellas in the house. It’s all kinda weird if you ask me.
There are superstitions involving dogs – and here’s an article about how they might have started:
If the one about barking at nothing is a sign of ghosts, our house is totally haunted. Because the Coyote barks at nothing. Mind you, we THOUGHT he was barking at nothing, and then realized he finally noticed the goose. So realistically, he could see a fur ball rolling along, and that could set off his bark meter. So I’m not so sure we’re haunted.
Now the poop one is a BIT troubling because My Enforcer had poop on her right shoe the other day. And she didn’t notice. So she tracked it onto the welcome mat outside the front door. Nice welcome. So that was bad luck. For the welcome mat. I’ll see if I can strategically poop so she steps in it with her left foot. And we’ll watch for the good luck. That’s just silly. There’s nothing good about stepping in poop. I don’t t believe that one at all.
What else is new? Oh yeah. We got a new dog in our house. Settle down, before you all start sending congratulations. He’s an old dog. Actually he’s an old dog painting. To join all the other old dog paintings we have. My Enforcer saw him in a second hand store. And he cost way less than a bag of dog treats. So she couldn’t leave him there all by himself. So she adopted him. If anybody knows who this terrier is, who is named Toby, let My Enforcer know. Was he a famous Toby? An infamous Toby? I was fine with her bringing this new dog into the house. Because he doesn’t eat anything. And he won’t take my toys. Yes….I like my stuff….
My Enforcer told me she might take me on an adventure this week. I’m not sure where. She said she has an “idea.” Which probably involves more craft supplies. But what that has to do with me, I don’t know. Maybe I’ll get to go to the craft store. Yawn. I’ll keep you posted.
Almost time to walk and roll!
Have a good one. Peace and paws up. Stay safe.

This book of the well-known Japanese laureate and winner of the Fields medal appeared for the first time in Japanese (1977, 1978) in three volumes. The present version contains all three volumes and it appears in English for the first time in a such form (the first two volumes were published in English under the title “Introduction to Complex Analysis“ in 1984). The book starts on a basic level and many theorems (which are quite often considered as prerequisites of such texts) are included. The approach can be characterized as geometrical: it was the intention of the author to avoid a detailed study of topological properties of the complex plane.
The first part of the book contains classical material on holomorphic functions, the Cauchy theorem and conformal mapping, followed by chapters on analytic continuation and the Riemann mapping theorem. More than the last third of the book is devoted to Riemann surfaces. It is divided into three chapters: Riemann surfaces, The structure of Riemann surfaces and Analytic functions on a closed Riemann surface. The last chapter includes the Riemann-Roch and Abel theorems. While most of the material included in the first part could be used in a basic course on complex analysis, the whole book could serve as a text for an advanced course on Riemann surfaces. The book contains many pictures (helping to build geometric intuition) and problems (elementary and advanced). The book could be very helpful for students as well as for experts in the field.

Lately, I can’t be still long enough to eat breakfast, write a post, a chapter in my book, or do the dishes without flitting around like a nervous hummingbird. Normally playing inside is some radio broadcast like Democracy Now or Morning Maine on WERU, or a dance-to-it Pandora or Genius playlist. I like a stimulating aural environment, yet since moving recently, I’ve been disinclined towards manufactured sound in my new space. What wafts in from the surrounding wooded hillside provides plenty of ambient chirp and chatter. When I listen closely, the rustling branches, whose sways hypnotize through wide skylights, whisper to me to turn off the computer, the Netflix, the modern technological impositions to concentration and creativity. Skittish as a dragonfly, I’m regretfully honing to a steel glint an attention span more suitable for a fourteen year old with ADHD.
Completely at odds with my meditation practice, eh?
Seems I’ve got my feet on the brake and the gas simultaneously and if I remember from Ms. Ewanciw’s ninth grade math class correctly, [ + times – equals -], which means I’m a poor conductor of electricity – that creative spark every writer needs for propulsion. What good are rituals and discipline if I’m training my mind right out of focus?
So last night I go low, low enough to be eye level with the water – that surefire conductor, and paddle up the hyalescent Megunticook River. My savage beast is quietly tamed by rhythmic paddling and harmonic birdsong. That one music turns off while another turns on is the Rx for all that insanely eddys and ails. Outside of time, I ponder lily pads and heron flight and the splashes of just-missed fish feeding on the bugs of dusk.
So sublime. Ahhhhhh…
The boil thus reduced to a simmer, inspiration glides near, throwing golden coins into the water around me like I’m the fountain, a wellspring, the bestower of wishes. Seduced by the setting of these rippling sunstreaks and mesmerized by the coquettish moon peaking behind a wash of clouds, my relaxed and fertile mind receives the planting of a new seed.
I drift back to the sandy shore, pull my kayak out of the water, and pause before heading home. The discovery of such a lovely spot minutes away feels like being baptized; I am submerged in deep appreciation. How have I let the falsely urgent crowd out the important? This natural beauty taken for granted! Such foolishness…
Back under darkened skylights, in centered calmness, I sit and write. And write and write and write – outlining chapters and anecdotes, developing theme and tone – any and all jumbles merely sequences and friendly tangents that will illustrate and illuminate this freshly waterborne idea. Only a few days ago I was distraught over my riches: having so many good projects…how could I ever choose which to cultivate? Too many sometimes is just that: too many. What I longed for was THE ONE. The one that would propel me out of creative logjam and launch me, like Tigger, into joyful action.
Yes! Clarity emerges. Focus and Direction hold hands, winking slyly at me.
To refine this new germination, I consult the I Ching, an ancient Chinese method of divination and guidance. I throw 3 coins, resulting in 54, Changing, and my changing lines lead to 51, Shock / Thunder. Curious, as tomorrow is the full moon (in July often referred to as the Full Thunder Moon), I put the burgeoning project into the reading’s context:
“The shock of continuing thunder brings fear and trembling. The superior man is always filled with reverence at the manifestation of god; he sets his life in order and searches his heart, lest it harbor any secret opposition to the will of god. Thus reverence is the foundation of true culture.” (~from the 1950 Wilhelm translation of the I Ching)
Anew, I surround myself with fluidity, with natural rhythms, with less 21st century madness. I bring reverence to the well, not to the chariot of technology, so when the thunder comes, I will not be deterred.

WBAL News Radio 1090 and FM 101.5's John Patti
There is a group of people who run through parts of downtown Baltimore around 5:30 just about every morning. Yes, they are training for this year's Baltimore Marathon, but they are also learning how to become self-sufficient.
Karen Cedeno, Development Director for the Baltimore chapter of "Back On My Feet," says the way running helps with their mission is that running "shows that you have to put one foot in front of the other to get to an end result." She adds that "determination really helps."
After a member is with the program for 30 days, Cedeno says they graduate to the "next steps" program, which is where they can start getting housing and employment assistance.
Cedeno says a lot of their members are in recovery and are residents from partner programs like Christopher's Place, Helping Up Mission, McVett, Penn-North, and Baltimore's Station. She says the goal is to get their members to independence and self-sufficiency.
"Back On My Feet" Baltimore will have about 200 members as part of this year's Baltimore Marathon team. About a quarter of them are residents in recovery; the rest are volunteers and fundraisers. They have been gathering mornings at 5:30 to run and train for the marathon. The group will enjoy a "pasta party' the night before the marathon at the Lord Baltimore Hotel. Then, on race day, they will staff a tent with water in Waverly.
One of those who will be running is Adam Trionfo, a resident of "Helping Up Mission" who has been an intern with "Back On My Feet" for two years. He tells WBAL News Radio 1090 and FM101.5 that "Back On My Feet has paid for me to take recovery classes, which has allowed me to get a job helping people experiencing homelessness and addiction."
The program has also helped Trionfo's family reconnect with him. Adam's young daughter has been able to go to races and see her father win medals.
Trionfo adds that "Back On My Week" helped to get him off of probation by paying his restitution at a time when being in a recovery program did not allow him to hold a job. Trionfo had accumulated two theft charges when he was on the street and was also dealing with heroin addiction.
He goes on to say the program has allowed him to spend weekends with his daughter, enjoy extended stays at his mother's house, and be reunited with his sister, who had not talked to him in two years.
Troinfo admits that he will be in recovery for life because he says every day is a struggle, but he likes to say the past is behind him, and the mistakes that he made were for a purpose.
Karen Cedeno says, "Adam is a great representative of our program." She says that about 70% of the people who go through their program end up like Adam, where they are getting employment, housing, and are on the path of recovery. She proudly adds that 90% of them maintain that self-sufficiency.
Cedeno says that "Back On My Feet" is definitely bridging the gap, and Baltimore is just one of thirteen other chapters nationwide doing the same thing.

Recent advances in single cell sequencing technologies allow for greater resolution in assessing tumor clonality using chromosome copy number variations (CNVs). While single cell DNA sequencing technologies are ideal to identify tumor sub-clones, they remain expensive and in contrast to single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) methods are more limited in the data they generate. However, CNV data can be inferred from scRNA-seq and bulk RNA-seq, for which several tools have been developed, including inferCNV, CaSpER, and HoneyBADGER. Inferences regarding tumor clonality from CNV data (and other sources) are frequently visualized using phylogenetic plots, which previously required time-consuming and error-prone, manual analysis.
Here, we present Uphyloplot2, a python script that generates phylogenetic plots directly from inferred RNA-seq data, or any Newick formatted dendrogram file. The tool is publicly available at https://github.com/harbourlab/UPhyloplot2/.
Uphyloplot2 is an easy-to-use tool to generate phylogenetic plots to depict tumor clonality from scRNA-seq data and other sources.
Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has become an important new tool for studying gene expression in individual cells of heterogenous samples. While this technology is still maturing, it is already providing powerful new insights into normal and diseased tissue types [1, 2]. In particular, single cell technology has resulted in great strides in cancer research. A hallmark of cancer cells is aneuploidy and chromosomal copy number variations (CNVs), which often correlate with tumor aggressiveness [3,4,5,6]. CNVs can be used to identify subclones of tumor cells and to infer tumor evolution, which can have important clinical implications . Single cell sequencing can be used to analyze subclonal tumor architecture at unprecedented resolution [1, 8]. While single cell DNA sequencing (scDNA-seq) is an emerging technique for this type of analysis, it is very expensive and yet to be optimized. Alternatively, CNVs can be inferred from scRNA-seq and bulk RNA-seq using applications such as inferCNV , HoneyBadger , and CaSpER . Following, these applications cluster the inferred CNV patterns, allowing to define discrete subclones and infer tumor evolution. This approach for studying tumor clonality and evolution has been used successfully by our group and others [8, 12]. Tumor evolution is commonly visualized with phylogenetic plots, where the length of tree branches is proportional to the number of cells in each subclone. This, in contrast to plotting the dendrogram files, allows for a simple and intuitive representation of tumor evolution. Until now, such visualization required time-consuming and error-prone manual curation. Here we describe a new tool called Uphyloplot2. This program uses inferCNV output files to generate phylogenetic plots depicting tumor evolution, and also works with any other Newick formatted dendrogram files such as those derived from HoneyBADGER and CaSpER (Fig. 1).
Uphyloplot2 was written entirely in Python 3 to enable pipeline integration, customization, and platform independence.
Availability and requirements
Project name: Uphyloplot2. Project home page: https://github.com/harbourlab/UPhyloplot2/. Operating system(s): Platform independent. Programming language: Python. Other requirements: None. License: GNU General Public License v3.0. Any restrictions to use by non-academics: No.
To infer tumor clonality/evolution from scRNA-seq data, we first ran the inferCNV  pipeline on four uveal melanoma tumor samples  to infer CNVs from RNA-seq and cluster cells into subclones. inferCNV must be run with “HMM” to generate a “HMM_CNV_predictions.*.cell_groupings” file, which contains information on cell clusters. Following, reference cells (normal controls) were removed from that file manually before plotting. Uphyloplot2 can plot multiple trees at once and will plot all files placed in the “Input” directory in one figure. In the example above, we used all four “.cell_groupings” files to produce the four phylogenetic trees depicted in Fig. 2. The first branch (seen in red) always has the same length and is introduced to depict the evolution of normal cells to tumor cells. All following branches are labeled with letters corresponding to distinct tumor subclones. The branch length correlates with the number of cells in the respective subclone. For instance, in tumor 1 most cells are found in cluster “I” and “J”, where “J” is predicted to have directly evolved from “I”. Subsequently, more detailed information on which chromosomal regions were gained and lost for each subclone can be obtained from the “.HMM_CNV_predictions.*.pred_cnv_regions.dat” file. For example, cells in cluster “J” have lost part of chromosome 19q, in addition to the chromosome 8p loss found in cluster “I”. As can be seen in this simple example, sub-clonality of the four tumor samples differs substantially, and indicates the presence of multiple evolutionary branches.
Uphyloplot2 was designed to work directly with the “.cell_groupings” output from inferCNV after removing reference cells. Additionally, Uphyloplot2 can plot user derived, Newick formatted dendrogram files, for instance exported from HoneyBadger, CaSpER, or inferCNV if preferred. Using dendrogram files requires additional processing steps: In brief, using R the dendrogram has to be exported in a “Newick” format. Second, the Uphyloplot2 folder contains a python script called “newick_input.py”, which can be used to convert the Newick file to a “.cell_groupings” file. Once the “.cell_groupings” files are generated, they can be used as outlined above. A detailed user guide is available on the Uphyloplot2 GitHub page.
The python script presented here allows to plot phylogenetic trees of tumor subclones from inferCNV output files and other Newick formatted dendrograms. The output files generated are true Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files, enabling easy attribute editing like colors, lengths, or angles in any SVG editor, while maintaining high resolution. Depending on the datasets, some branches might overlap in the figure, however, these can easily be rotated for visual clarity. In contrast to algorithms that estimate molecular time from whole-genome sequencing data using mutations , the use of CNVs to infer clonality and tumor evolution is more complex because some chromosomal segments are selectively altered while others occur through massive genome reorganization such as chromothripsis [14, 15], chromoplexy  and anaphase catastrophe . It is important to note that Uphyloplot2 evolutionary plots might not represent molecular time accurately. Uphyloplot2 constructs trees with subclone branch lengths proportional to the number of cells in each subclone. New methodologies are also being developed for analyzing single cell CNV and single cell mutation data . In summary, we present an automated tool for generating phylogenetic trees from scRNA-seq data that allows the visualization of tumor subclones and heterogeneity.

So today I cut down the tall Pringles can that we have been using for the straw activity. Miss L loves using the straws & can. When I made it smaller, it was that much easier for her to manage it now. The straws now stand a couple inches above the top of the can & that seems to be a good size for her. She isn't constantly having to pull it down to peer inside. ;-)
However, today I think I hit on a new love....
I cut a wide hole in the top of a nut can. I happened to have some state disks (not sure what they are really made for. I got them from my aunt who used to teach fourth grade). Miss L loved this! She spent at least 20 minutes playing with it.
She spent some time trying to figure out how to get the top off. She never did figure it out. So this is what would happen when it was full...
I was always happy to help her.
I love the look on concentration on her face in this photo.
I even managed to get sort of a smile out of her! She's a tough one. ::grin:: I pulled this out again in the afternoon for her & she was just way too cute. She saw the can & started doing her "uh-uh-uh" noises when she wants something & started flapping her hands. She spent quite a bit of time in the playpen putting the chips in & out once more.
I also put a bunch of liquid soap in a baggie (within another baggie). Then I gave her a matchbox car. I showed her how to squish it around, drive the car on it, just had fun with it. She wasn't impressed. She wanted the car but did not want that soap baggie at all.
I'll continue to try things out with her & make a list of what works and what doesn't. I'm hoping to have a nice long list of activities to keep her happily occupied for the three hours it takes us to get through our school day.


The 23-year-old teacher was killed on Wednesday evening as she went for a run by the Grand Canal in Tullamore, Co Offaly.
The funeral of school teacher Ashling Murphy will take place in Co Offaly at 11am this morning.
The 23-year-old teacher was attacked and killed at Cappincur on the Grand Canal in Tullamore last Wednesday afternoon.
The funeral cortege will leave Ashling’s home at 10.30am and arrive at St Brigid’s Church in Mount Bolus
Ms Murphy’s parents Raymond and Kathleen, her sister Amy, brother Cathal and boyfriend Ryan will be among the chief mourners.
Teachers and pupils from Coolanarney National School in Blueball, where Ms Murphy went to school, will form a guard of honour.
Teacher unions have asked schools across the country to observe a minute of silence in Ashling’s memory, at 11am this morning.
Her many friends from school, college, her local GAA club Kilcormac/Killoughey and Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann will also attend the funeral. She was also a member of Ballyboy Comhaltas.
Local musicians, many of whom Ms Murphy played with throughout the years, will play the music.
Parish priest Fr Michael Meade will be the chief celebrant at this morning’s mass. President Michael D Higgins, Taoiseach Micheál Martin and Minister for Justice Helen McEntee will be attending the funeral mass.
Ms Murphy will ‘rest in peace’ forever in Lowertown cemetery nearby, following the funeral mass.

Maroon becomes back-to-back Cup winner with Blues, Lightning
EDMONTON, Alberta -- Patrick Maroon didn’t get the chance this time to lower the Stanley Cup so that his son, Anthony, could kiss it before lifting it again over his shoulders.
Anthony stayed home in the U.S., as did fiancee Francesca as Maroon celebrated with the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday night as he became a back-to-back NHL champion. A year ago on the ice in Boston, the St. Louis native won the Cup with the Blues, his family by his side.
Maroon had his phone out for the party on the ice in Edmonton after his key steal helped set up the second goal in the 2-0 win that sealed the title.
''Just celebrating with my future wife Francesca and then my family back home,’' he explained. ''I thought last year was something else, but this year was something special. I’ve been fortunate enough to be on so many good hockey teams, and to go back to back, most people don’t get the chance to play in a Stanley Cup Finals, I got to do it back to back, and win. I got the chills talking about this.’'
According to NHL Stats, Maroon is just the eighth player to win the Cup in back-to-back seasons with different teams and the first since Cory Stillman in 2004 and 2006, sandwiched around the lockout year.
''It’s extremely different,’' Maroon said before the final wrapped up, acknowledging the decision for his family not to join him in the bubble. ''It’s kind of been a dream. I’ve been living in a dream, honestly.’'
Maroon will be the first player since Claude Lemieux in the 1990s to get his name on the Cup in consecutive years with different teams, and only those two and Stillman have done it since the expansion era began in 1967.
''I’ve been fortunate to play on some really, really good hockey teams,’' Maroon said before Game 5. ''I’ve been fortunate to come back to the Stanley Cup Final, even though there’s a lot of guys that play in the league for 10-15 years that only get one opportunity at this thing. I’ve been fortunate to get two whacks at it.
''I’ve been blessed, and without my family and my teammates for all the support, I don’t think it happens.’'
If the Blues don’t let Maroon go and the Lightning don’t sign him, maybe none of this happens. Tampa Bay is a different team with him after falling short many years in a row.
Maroon was a late-summer signing a couple of weeks before training camp in the summer of 2019. It was his second consecutive one-year deal, now with his sixth NHL organization, worth $900,000 - roughly half his St. Louis salary.
It has been a perfect fit, even if Maroon hasn’t been as prominent as he was in the Blues’ run, when he scored a series-clinching, double-overtime goal in the second round to eliminate the same Dallas Stars he and the Lightning defeated in the final. But along with trade deadline pickups Barclay Goodrow and Blake Coleman and free agent signings Zach Bogosian and Luke Schenn, Maroon has played a big role in bulking up the Lightning enough to get the job done.
''The M.O. on us and the Lightning over the last few years is that they’re offensive and they’re skilled and the way to beat them is to play them hard,’' said Game 4 overtime hero Kevin Shattekirk, also a new addition. ''Things have changed this year.’'
Coach Jon Cooper knew Maroon had the potential to change the complexion of the team. He coached Maroon from 2005-07 with Texarkana and St. Louis Bandits of the North American Hockey League, kept in touch over the years and followed his career closely.
Cooper remembers Maroon going from an overweight 17-year-old who had to do extra work to get in shape to a dominant player at that level. Maroon grew into his 6-foot-3, 225-pound frame as a player, grew up as a person and became an NHL regular.
In February, Maroon’s mother was diagnosed with breast cancer - he told NBC she beat it and was healthy - and he was hoping to bring the Cup home to her.
''You never know when you’re going to come back, so you’ve got to take every opportunity and cherish it,’' he said.
Maroon dressed in all 25 Tampa Bay games this postseason, providing some much-needed muscle and filling a vital role in front of the net on the power play.
''He’s a good teammate, and he knows his role, so he knows the minutes he’s going to get,’' Cooper said. ''I’d give guys roles and make sure they all know what they are, and he knows his. He’s got character, and he is a character. It’s two good attributes to have.’'
Watching Maroon play elsewhere, Cooper often ''sneakily’’ whispered to former Lightning general manager Steve Yzerman, ''Hey Steve, if we got the chance.’'
It was new GM Julien BriseBois who got the chance and took it, and now they are all Stanley Cup champions.
