ABSTRACT & COMMENTARY
Gene-Modified CD4+ T-cells Infused in HIV Patients may be a Promising Treatment
By Dean L. Winslow, MD, FACP, FIDSA
Clinical Professor of Medicine and Pediatrics Division of Infectious Diseases and Geographic Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, is Associate Editor of Infectious Disease Alert
Dr. Winslow is a consultant for Siemens Diagnostic
SYNOPSIS: Autologous CD4+ T-cells modified to delete CCR5 by Zinc-finger nuclease (ZFN) were infused into 12 HIV-infected patients. Cells survived in the circulation of patients and provided some control of viral replication and immune reconstitution after interruption of antiretroviral therapy.
SOURCE: Tebas P, et al. Gene Editing of CCR5 in Autologous CD4 T Cells of Persons Infected with HIV. N Engl J Med 2014; 370: 901-910.
Twelve patients with aviremic stable HIV infection receiving antiretroviral therapy had lymphocytes harvested, had ex-vivo modification of the CCR5 genes performed in the CD4+ T-cells using ZFN, then had approximately 10 billion of those CD4+ cells reinfused (11-28% of which were shown to have undergone CCR5 modification). 6 patients underwent interruption of HAART 4 weeks after the infusion of the T-cells. Preinfusion CD4 counts were a median of 448 cells/uL At 1 week post infusion, the median total CD4 count was 1517/uL and median CCR5-modified CD4 count was 250/uL, constituting 13.9% of total circulating CD4 cells. The mean half-life of the genetically-modified CD4 cells was estimated to be 48 weeks. During treatment interruption and the resultant viremia, the decline in circulating CCR5- modified cells (−1.81 cells per day) was significantly less than the decline in unmodified cells (−7.25 cells per day) (P = 0.02). HIV RNA became undetectable in one of four patients who could be evaluated. The blood level of HIV DNA decreased in most patients. Infusion of cells was generally well-tolerated with only one patient experiencing a transfusion reaction.
In the mid-1990's the chemokine receptors, CCR5 and CXCR4 were identified as the major co-receptors for HIV on CD4+ T-cells. It was later demonstrated that the relatively common (in patients of Northern European genetic origin) 32 base pair deletion in CCR5 when present in homozygotes conferred almost complete resistance to infection with HIV. Heterozygous individuals who possessed one copy of this deletion per cell were often "long term nonprogressors" who maintained relatively preserved CD4 counts in the absence of antiretroviral therapy. Maraviroc, a small molecule, orally bioavailable inhibitor of CCR5/HIV-1 binding has demonstrated clear antiretroviral activity and is effective (as part of a HAART regimen) in the treatment of HIV infection in individuals who are infected with CCR5-tropic HIV. Finally, the "Berlin patient" (a man with chronic HIV infection who developed acute leukemia and received a bone marrow transplant from a homozygous CCR5 delta 32 donor) has had undetectable plasma and lymph node HIV-1 RNA and proviral DNA more than 4 years post-transplantation and off antiretroviral therapy. 1,2
While the trial reported here does not represent a "cure" for HIV infection, the success in providing short-term immune reconstitution and partial suppression of HIV replication without HAART is exciting and may, eventually prove to be clinically beneficial. In addition, the use of other novel Zinc finger nucleases may prove to be useful in the treatment of other infections or non-infectious genetic diseases.

Kia Motors Nigeria has introduced measures to curtail the spread of the virus and to minimise the chances of their employee and customers’ exposure to the disease and to join responsive corporate entities across the country to restrain the spread of the COVID-19.
Rooted in the practice advised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and National Center for Disease Control (NCDC), personal hygiene had been constantly reinforced in all their locations with designated handwashing places, deployment of the infrared thermometer for temperature checks at the points of entry into the facilities, hand sanitizers, nose masks, social distancing, amongst others.
There is no gainsaying the fact the current outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has taken the world by storm and ravaged cities across the globe, thereby paving the way for extreme measures like social distancing and in some cases, total lockdown. To curtail the spread, measures have been taken by quite a number of companies. At the frontline of this fight, like every person/customer-facing business, the auto industry expectedly needs to be conscious and cautious of the pandemic. Premised on this and having been recognized as one of the socially responsive companies in Nigeria, Kia Motors Nigeria has instituted a more precautionary operational practice in their showrooms and service centers in order to avoid contracting and spreading the coronavirus, as the country comes to grips with a growing pandemic.
Further to the measures taken by Kia, the auto company has also restructured its workforce to a more dynamic operational base. In the meantime, quite a number of their staff are advised to work remotely starting March 23rd until further notice — “except those in business-critical roles that cannot be done away from Kia facilities. In addition, we join the WHO and NCDC to strongly advise anyone who feels like they are showing symptoms of COVID-19—which can be as mild as those of a cold, or more serious, like the fever or flu—are advised to seek medical attention and self-isolate while they take care of themselves,” said the Chief Operation Officer, Sanjay Tatpati.
People are understandably concerned about the COVID-19. To allay the fears of customers and ensure them of Kia’s readiness to provide premium care for their car and adequately support its customer base during this outbreak, Sanjay further stated that “as a business that interacts with the public on a daily basis, we understand car servicing and repairs may seem essential in this period as health officials advise against public transportation. Thus, we are geared towards ensuring safe, secure and hygiene facilities as spelled out by the WHO.
Although we are taking every precaution with our facility and staff, we also have an even better and alternative solution which centers on online booking for service and sales.”
In an attempt to make its service readily available to customers, Olawale Jimoh, Marketing Manager of Kia Motors stated that “a responsive customer care outfit is equipped to attend to the sales and service requirements of customers via phone, email, web live chat, WhatsApp & social media platforms to provide real-time answers to any questions the customers’ may have about a vehicle, repair, and servicing, financing or the Online booking tool. With our digital platforms, the power of car shopping and servicing are firmly in the hands of our customers and can save time at our locations, as well as, money in this critical time”.
The unprecedented situation arising out of the spread of COVID-19 has already taken a toll on the automotive industry. With almost all companies, from the financial institutions to public service taking serious measures, Kia Motors Nigeria has joined in on the need to restructure their business operations to help curtail the spread of the Virus. It has done so keeping in mind the safety and well-being of all customers, employees, workers, partners, and associates across the country.
The company’s outlets will remain open for now and will be available to its customers for all their requirements. The company is ensuring deliveries are not delayed for its customers as well as service requirements, without compromising on the safety precautions sent out by the government.

The Observer reports that The Undertaker is in far worse physical shape than is being let on. WWE officials aren’t ruling Taker out for WrestleMania 28 in 11 months but don’t expect him to work another match before then.

Navy is closer to finding ill-fated Indianapolis
New information uncovered by the Naval History and Heritage Command might shed light on where the World War II cruiser Indianapolis was attacked and sunk. A new section of the NHHC website consolidates all of its holdings on the Indianapolis into an easy-to-navigate online resource.
NHHC historian Richard Hulver recently uncovered information on this dark episode in U.S. Navy history. In the final days of the war, the Indianapolis completed a top-secret mission to Tinian Island in the Mariana Islands to deliver components of the atomic bomb that was to be dropped on Hiroshima.
The Indianapolis then headed to Leyte, an island in the Philippines, when it was torpedoed and sunk by a Japanese submarine just after midnight on July 30, 1945. Approximately 900 of the ship’s 1,196 sailors and Marines survived the sinking, but after four to five harrowing days in the water, suffering exposure, dehydration, drowning and shark attacks, only 316 survived. You may recall the story being told by the grizzled, Narragansett Beer-drinking, shark-hunting Capt. Quint in the '70s blockbuster movie "Jaws."
Hulver found a blog post and photo online that recounted the story of a World War II sailor whose ship passed the Indianapolis less than a day before the ship was sunk. This corroborated an account by Indianapolis Captain Charles McVay III that his ship passed an unspecified tank landing ship approximately 11 hours before the sinking.
Hulver located the sailor’s service record from the National Personnel Records Center, which identified him as a passenger on tank landing ship LST-779 during the period in which the Indianapolis sank. That sent Hulver to the National Archives, where LST-779’s deck logs confirmed the story.
The close passage between the Indianapolis and LST-779 had been seemingly overlooked in previous studies of the Indianapolis. Hulver said, "The LST-779 data sheds new light on where Indianapolis was attacked and sunk. This brings us closer to discovering the final resting place of the ship and many of her crew … to ensure that their story lives on."
In addition to the summary of Hulver’s research, the Indianapolis collection page on the website includes links to high-level intelligence not made available to the crew because of operational concerns; rescue operations; the subsequent investigation and court martial proceedings against the ship’s captain; artwork; Navy photos of survivors; oral histories; and much more. Research into the sinking is ongoing by the Navy.
Additional information about this topic or anything related to naval history is available from the Naval History and Heritage Command’s Communication and Outreach division at (202) 433-7880 or via email at email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.org. The NHHC, located at the Washington, D.C., Navy Yard, is responsible for the preservation, analysis and dissemination of U.S. naval history and heritage.
Although the loss of the cruiser Indianapolis was a tragedy, the ship and crew had served faithfully throughout the war, frequently as the flagship of the U.S. Fifth Fleet, earning 10 battle stars and successfully completing a top-secret mission transporting the atomic bomb used on Hiroshima that directly contributed to the end of World War II.
The loss of the ship also resulted in several sweeping changes for the Navy, including improvements to reporting procedures for ship arrivals and non-arrivals, establishing requirements for ships of a certain size to be escorted and a reevaluation of the lifesaving equipment used on combatant ships.

Hope for drug breakthrough
Scientists at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and several universities are working on the development of synthetic polymers that would mimic those the body produces to treat illnesses, according to the July 1 edition of the Armed Forces News Online. While the Fold F(x) program is years away from fruition, it someday could foster development of medications that would not have expiration dates.
In time, combat medics no longer would have to worry about the medicines they carry in their med kits losing effectiveness. To date, research teams have made inroads in creating synthetic polymers that have shown some promise in possibly treating biowarfare agents, Ebola, and Burkholderia (bacteria found in soil or water often resistant to common antibiotics).

Measurement of Indianess: wannabe to FBI
Little Hawk is Troy Westwood an ex-football player in the Canadian Football Leagues Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Troy was in a music band called Eagle and Hawk that my cousin Vince Fontaine had formed. Troy is one of those that has an "Indian soul". The person that has found Indianness to be a calling and has been accepted (to some degree) into the world of the Indian. This is an interesting phenomenon. People becoming another culture and heritage other than their own. This practice is not new or without some controversy. There are numerous cultures that have been infiltrated with the wannabe. Indian's have Archie Stansfeld Belaney,aka Grey Owl the infamous Indian environmentalist. Not to mention the famous crying Indian Espera DeCorti, Iron Eyes Cody. These guys were different types of wannabees, they were pretending to be Indian to further their career or escape their life. With Troy I don't see that. I see a guy that is doing fine without having to pretend to be Indian. He acknowledges that he is white but likes Indian heritage. So he does what he can to hang around Indians. I kind of get a kick out of wannabees, but I realize that there is something askew to that phenomenon.
I remember that Indians pretended to be something else as well. Many pretended to be French, Italian, or whatever they thought they could pass for. Anything except being Indian. Society for Indians (and other minority groups) could be harsh. People tried to escape the stigma of being who they were. There really is a societal privilege to being white, but that's another story. It is kind of ironic that people want to be Indian while many Indians tried to be anything other than who they were.
I once thought that people want to be Indian (Black, Japanese, and others) because they did not have any heritage of their own. They like the "text-book" image of what those groups are associated with; the noble savage, the Samurai, the strength and coolness. Not sure if that is the reason they become Indian.
Indian people have become more Indian than Ira Hayes. Indians are all FBI's, Full Blood Indian. Indians are seen by other Indians as tainted if they are not FBI. Even if you are not FBI but have the brown look, they will claim to be FBI and the mixed bloods are less than them. You are "nose bleed", red bone, apple, white, and wannabe. The whole identity picture is really abstract. In a way it is a good thing, we no longer are hiding that we are Indian. Actually it is a great thing that we have never lost that pride in our heritage. It was really hard for our old people to continue with their identity. Society, specifically government, tried hard to eradicate the Indian.
It's (now) cool to be Indian.
One thing I am not a fan of is the belittling of others to feel superior. That is what some of us do. The Reserve Indian will act superior to that urban Indian. Saying they are more Indian because of the link to the community. Other Indians will put down the fair skinned Indian because they don't have the features with being FBI.

Synthesis of phosphate-containing oligosaccharides corresponding to capsular antigen structures from Haemophilus influenzae
2000 (English)Doctoral thesis, comprehensive summary (Other academic)
This thesis describes the synthesis of spacer-equipped di- and trimeric oligosaccharide structures corresponding to fragments of the capsular polysaccharides of Haemophilus influenzae types c and f. Both of these polysaccharides are of the teichoic acid type, built up by disaccharide repeating units linked via interglycosidic phosphodiester bonds. Introduction of the phosphodiester linkages was accomplished employing the glycosyl H-phosphonate method. The syntheses are designed in such a way as to allow the formation of even larger structures, as well as conjugation to a carrier protein. The first section of this thesis presents a general overview of the biological significance and structural features of anomeric phosphodiesters and synthetic approaches towards these structures, including a literature survey of research in this area during the past decade. In the second part, a new approach to the synthesis of anomeric phosphodiester linkages, utilizing non-anomeric glycosyl H-phosphonate acceptors and various galactosyl donors in glycosylation reactions, is described. Finally, synthesis of the capsular polysaccharide fragments of H. influenzae types c and f is discussed.

Are you prepared for an earthquake if it happens today? Unlike hurricanes and tornados, earthquakes strike without warning. How do you keep your dog safe during an earthquake? Being prepared is the best protection for you and your pets.
No one knows when the “Big One” will hit, but if you live in a seismically active area, it’s not a matter of if, but when you’ll have to deal with a serious quake.
As a pet owner, learn what to do now, so there’s no doubt in case of an emergency. Be prepared in the even disaster strikes!
How to Keep your Dog Safe During an Earthquake
First, make sure you’ve done everything you can to protect your pet. Taking these steps will also help you get back together with your pet if an earthquake separates the two of you.
Microchip your pets and don't forget to register them
If you have your pet micro-chipped and their contact info up to date, you have a better chance of being reunited during an earthquake.

Check your dog's collar
Check the fit of the collar on your pet regularly to ensure it doesn't slip off in the event of an emergency. When the collars fitted properly, you should be able to slide two fingers underneath it. Their collar should have current ID tags.
Keep your pet's vaccinations up to date
During natural disasters, stagnant water, poor sanitation and rotting debris might make your pet sick.
If you keep vaccinations current, you can keep your pets healthy, even in unsanitary living conditions and under higher stress levels that might compromise their immune system.
Training and socializing your pet
If your pet escapes, he or she will be easier to catch if they are well socialized with people and new situations.
A well-socialized pet also handles stress better than an under-socialized pet. Dogs can be socialized regularly by attending puppy classes and visiting unknown places like dog parks, pet stores, outdoor cafes, etc.
Include your Dog as Part of your Disaster Plan
Make a disaster plan and pick a place that everyone in your family can go if the power goes out and the phone stops working.
Make plans for your pet in case you have to leave them behind. In your disaster plan, have the phone numbers and addresses of places where you can board your pet in an emergency. You can even find out their disaster protocols.
If you are leaving your dog at home, let a friend or neighbor have a set of your house keys and a copy of your disaster plan, as well as instructions on how to care for your dog while you're away.
Create a First Aid Kit for your Dog
Create a pet first aid kit for your home, and one for your car if you travel with your pet a lot. Include basic pet first aid items and other useful disaster materials. Pack blankets and towels and something to confine your pet with such as a crate, play pen, carrier or yard stakes.
Also include supplies for cleaning up pet waste, like paper towels and waste bags, and your pet’s medical records, including current photos.
You should store your pet’s disaster supplies in such a way that they are easy to grab and go. Duffel bags work great for storing dog stuff near or inside their carrier.
What to Do During An Earthquake
What do dogs do during an earthquake? When frightened or distressed, any animal could bite or scratch to flee, so it is very important that you not restrain your pet.
If an earthquake happens outside while you're walking your pet, stop and get down on the ground.
How to Protect Pets During an Earthquake
- If Your Outdoors with your Pet:
- Try crawling to an open area, so you're far from trees, power lines and buildings.
- Attempt to hold on to your pet’s leash. However, if this puts your safety in danger, let go.
- Although it might be heartbreaking, you can’t protect your pet if you’re injured.
- You could still catch your pet once it's safe, and the shaking has stopped.
- Next, put your arms around your head and neck and hold on to something to stabilize yourself.
- If you’re Driving with your Pet:
- Pull over to the side of the road.
- Don’t park anywhere near power lines or overpasses.
- Don’t get out until the shaking is gone.
- If your Dog is already inside, it's crate:
- Let him stay there.
- The structure will give them much-needed protection from falling objects.
- If you can easily move it, carry or drag it to safety.
- If you are at Home when the Earthquake happens:
- Let your animal find safety on its own.
- If your pets don't mind being held, drop to the floor with them, crawl under a desk or table and cover your head and neck.
- You can also grab a table leg.
- If your pet struggles to get away, you should let them go.
Should you go inside a Collapsing Building During an Earthquake?
Should you go inside a collapsing building during an earthquake to save your dog?
Keep in mind that if you go back in a building and it collapses, you’re also putting first responders at significant risk trying to rescue you’ve gone back in for your pet.
It's important to first evaluate the situation and make sure it's safe before proceeding, and then factor in how your family would be affected if you were lost. This is something people should think about, no matter if it’s an earthquake, fire, tornado, hurricane, or anything of the like.
Also, dogs have a way of finding their way to safety, even in a collapsed building.
3. Can Dogs Sense or Predict Earthquakes?
How does a dog act before an earthquake? Many people think that dogs and cats can predict earthquakes. People have long reported that their pets began behaving strangely right before an earthquake.
Pets may behave differently for a few minutes or days before an earthquake, such as anxiety, pacing or increased activity. This phenomenon called Seismic Escape Response and may result from dogs hearing high-frequency seismic sounds coming from deep within the ground.
There have been several studies investigating a pet's ability to predict earthquakes. After the big earthquake in Japan, they performed a 9-magnitude earthquake study, which investigated pet owners accounts of their pets acting abnormally right before the earthquake.
- Out of 1259 Dog owners, 236 of them reported their dogs acting strangely.
- 115 cat owners out of 703 reported the same strange behavior minutes before the big one hit.
The study concluded that pets can predict earthquakes.
However, you shouldn't trust your pet to let you know when it's time to prepare for an earthquake. Start preparing now!
Gather a First Aid Kit for Dogs and Cats
Earthquakes and emergencies can happen. When they do, you want to be prepared with a first aid kit for your dog, just as you would for yourself.
Always keep your kit well stocked and contained in a box or bag. You can easily make a backpack as a "go bag."
You can buy a complete first aid kit online if it's easier, simply add important items like leashes, collars and important papers.
First Aid Kit Supplies for your Dogs
- Extra collar and leashes
- Familiar Toys
- Collapsible food and water bowls
- 1 Week of non-perishable food
- 1 Week supply of water
- 1 Week supply of your pet's medications if needed
- Styptic Powder
- Vet Wrap
- Pet Specific Healing ointment - for minor cuts and scrapes.
- Adhesive Tape
- Antibacterial ointments
- Blunt scissors
- Diarrhea medication for pets
- Digital rectal thermometer
- Hydrogen peroxide
- Medicine dropper
- Plastic storage container
- Self adhesive bandaids
- Litter box for cats and litter
- Manual can opener
- Copy of veterinary records in a waterproof bag.
- Vaccine Records
- Micro-chip number
- Photos of your pet
- Doctor's letter if an emotional support pet.
What to Do After an Earthquake
Follow your disaster plan. If your home isn't safe, take your go pack and make your way to the agreed-upon meeting place.

It writes at about 30mbps on my PC. The 'up to 120mbps speed' claim on the packaging is READ SPEED not write speed. This is a game all card manufacturers play on us. (To get a card with high write speeds you need to pay much more - look into the write details not the headline claimed 'speed'.)

I Promised I Wouldn’t Cry
Nov. 15th 2019 – Nov. 17th 2019
2019 is the 30th anniversary of CRC. The National Human Rights Museum commissioned Flip Flops Theatre to produce a children's play I Promised I Wouldn’t Cry, which was performed in the Jingmei White Terror Memorial Park Auditorium from November 15th to 17th.
I promised I Wouldn’t Cry is based on the true story of former White Terror Victim Fred Chin. There are no lines in the performance, the actors have their unique skills: vocal mimicry, balloons, light and shadow, puppetry, and bubbles. The four large puppets have their characteristics and symbolic significance. The huge and bleak Dragon King represents those in power during authoritarian regime, while the Death, the black god with gloomy eyes symbolizes the desire for death in despair.
Director Wu Yizhen abandoned the traditional proscenium-arch Stage and used childlike and warm interactive display techniques by shortening the distance between the actors and the audience to interpret the sadness of forced separation during white horror and created a new human rights children's play.

For decades — perhaps even longer — Florida has been a popular destination for domestic vacations. Now, as Americans slowly regain confidence in travel, recent data from travel insurance and assistance company Allianz Partners shows that Florida is firmly top of mind among people planning to venture out this summer. According to the company’s analysis, Orlando is the No. 1 choice for domestic travelers, while Miami ranks 10th on the top destinations list.
Although these cities are tourist hot spots with good reason, the Sunshine State has much more to offer, especially for those in search of an outdoor adventure that’s also perfect for social distancing. To send your clients on a Florida vacation that goes beyond the usual suspects, check out the adventurous activities offered by these North Florida cities.
Set along Florida’s Historic Coast, St. Augustine is known for being the oldest city in the U.S., as well as for the quaint, European-influenced architecture that comes from its centuries-old history. Outdoor enthusiasts, however, will find plenty of opportunities to explore the natural beauty of North Florida here.
With rivers, intracoastal waterways and the Atlantic Ocean all at its doorstep, St. Augustine attracts anglers to its fish-filled waters year-round. It’s not uncommon to see people cast their lines from the sandy shores of the beach or head out in a kayak to fish in the smaller inlet channels. For a chance at catching some of the larger fish in the local waters, the experienced captains of Sea Love Charters and Drum Man Charters take guests on fishing trips through the intracoastal waterways, as well as on deep-sea fishing trips in the Atlantic.
St. Augustine is also home to two species of dolphins — one that lives in the city’s rivers and another that stays in the coastal areas. For a chance to admire these marine mammals, St. Augustine Eco Tours Anastasia Watersports , Ripple Effect Ecotours and Kayak St. Augustine offer guided tours via boat, kayak and stand-up paddleboard through the city’s many waterways.
If clients prefer land-based adventures, St. Augustine also offers opportunities to go hiking and spot the wildlife and native plants at Fort Mose, Anastasia and Faver-Sykes state parks.
Tallahassee may be Florida’s capital city and an infamous college town, but it also deserves some recognition for its wild side. With over 700 miles of trails for hiking, biking, paddling and equestrian adventures, there’s a reason this city is nicknamed “Trailahassee.”
Most of Florida is flat, but in Tallahassee, travelers can find rolling hills perfect for mountain biking, including some highly technical paths. The Lafayette Heritage Trail is a popular option as it offers multiple terrains and a shared-use trail that welcomes runners, hikers, bikers and even paddlers on the nearby Piney Z Lake. St. Marks Historic Railroad State Trail is another local favorite, as this 16-mile paved path leads straight to the Gulf Coast. Traveling cyclists who don’t have any gear with them can always rent a bike from The Great Bicycle Shop.
For kayaking enthusiasts, Tallahassee is also home to several spring-fed rivers, such as the Wacissa, Wakulla and St. Marks rivers. Along their journey, paddlers can spot plenty of wildlife — maybe even a gator or two — before they reach the springs, which are a perfectly safe and refreshing spot for a swim. To rent a kayak and even contract a guide to take your clients out on the water, the Harry Smith Outdoors company does it all.
Beyond the many miles of trails, the Tree-to-Tree Adventure at the Tallahassee Museum is also a must for adventure-seekers. Combining manmade fun with Mother Nature, the Tree-to-Tree Adventure is equal parts zipline, ropes course and obstacle course — and it’s all suspended anywhere from 16 to 60 feet above the ground. As guests make their way through the forest by jumping, hopping and sliding from one tree platform to the next, they’ll also have plenty of opportunities to scope out local wildlife, including wild turkeys, white-tailed deer and more.
A trip to Florida would be incomplete without a visit to the beach, and the Panhandle, including Panama City Beach (PCB), has some of the whitest, softest sand in the state.
Although lounging on the shore is a perfectly acceptable choice while in PCB, for a little taste of some adventure, travelers can rent a pontoon boat from Lagoon Pontoons (or from one of several other companies in the area) and venture out into the Gulf waters all on their own. These boats are simple enough that anyone with a driver’s license can captain them.
Clients might consider taking one of these pontoon boats to nearby Shell Island, where people often hop off to do some snorkeling. And because PCB is home to one of the world’s highest concentrations of bottle-nose dolphins, sun-seekers on the way to Shell Island often spot a few of these animals roaming the waters. Lagoon Pontoons even offers guided jet ski and snorkeling trips designed to give people an up-close view of these playful dolphins.
For a change of pace from the beach, visitors can also opt for an airboat tour that explores the backwaters and marshes of PCB in search of alligators and other wildlife. Wild Thang Airboat Tours and Airboat Adventuresare two of the recommended companies in the area; the latter is known for its live gator demonstrations.

There was a moment the other week, when I was downloading and looking through cards from an outdoor wedding I helped shoot*, when I thought: gosh, this venue has amazing natural light, but the timeline did not work it to its advantage.
* we wedding photographers often help out our colleagues by acting as second shooters or assistants (it’s a small world and pretty tight-knit)
Because, as “regular” wedding timelines go, it’s typically in this fashion:
– ceremony (in the daylight)
– formals during cocktail hour
– sunset portraits with the couple
– reception (as the sun sets and the rest is in darkness)
Sometimes, that amazing natural light that looks fantastic for sunset portraits means a face-full of bright sunshine as the wedding processional walks down the aisle. The guests are holding their hands up to block their eyes as they are seated full west, the couple squints as they walk down the aisle, and it’s just a little too harsh. It’d be nice, I mused, if we did the ceremony in the soft rosy light of dusk.
And I started to think: what if we did it all in reverse?
I think it’d take a certain type of couple to do a wedding timeline in reverse, but think of how awesome it would be! Consider this possible outdoor wedding (preferably done in the spring or fall):
– guests would arrive and receive beverages
– food (possibly lunch) would be served
– toasts would be given (in the sun)
– dancing in the daytime!
– cake cut and served before sunset
– family photos are done in the shifting light
– golden-hour portraits with the couple (an hour before sunset)
– in that beautiful time between golden hour and actual sunset, the ceremony is performed in that rosy dusk glow
– and in the darkness, people either continue to dance or everyone is already spent, so they go home :)
For some reason, it just sounds like a cool idea. I’d probably recommend that it be done after Daylight Savings time, so the sunset would be around 8 rather than 6.
I really want an offbeat couple to try this out sometime.
Edit: I was just alerted to the idea that some people have guests who might eat and leave before the actual ceremony. In that case, I’d say… hold out on cutting the cake until after the ceremony! I bet people will always stay later for cake, especially if they know there is cake :)

Q I hate the way so many people have casual sex. I'm fine with flirting, but abhor the thought of going further with a stranger - how can people do that? This is causing me problems as I keep getting stuck at the same point - having met the guy but unable to become intimate. Do I have a problem or is it the way other people behave that's at fault?
A I'd suggest you have a type of sexual phobia. In other words your anxiety is not just about being naked and physical it's about deeper fears of people gaining emotional power over you.
This could be for a number of reasons. Maybe you have a family history of anxiety disorders and phobias. Perhaps you've suffered a long-term illness which left you socially isolated. Possibly you've come from a family where religious expectations have caused you to think of sex as 'not very nice'. Or maybe you suffered an abusive sexual experience when you were very young.
If any of this sounds familiar it is possible you are suffering from Sexual Aversion Disorder, a condition which results in people seeking to avoid any physical intimacy and developing a revulsion at the thought of sexual touch. The good news is this can be treated by sex therapy and CBT (cognitive behaviour therapy). Visit www.relate.org or www.babcp.com for further help.
Q I find myself having sex with the wrong men. I go out every weekend with my mates and have a few drinks. Once I'm drunk I only have one idea in mind - finding a man and letting whatever happens happen. I've even broken the law by having sex in public. I know if I quit drinking this behaviour would be far less likely to occur. I just don't seem to be able to control myself, and I really don't think I'm an alcoholic.
A Well you know the old saying: "I'm not a compulsive drinker because I only go to the pub when I want to!" While you make use of alcohol to lower your inhibitions, you then seem to find the thrill of sexual risk-taking almost addictive. Perhaps the truth is you suffer from basic shyness.
Obviously you don't really want to fall into the arms of any old Tom, Dick or Harry not least because you could be attacked, injured or worse. But what attracts you to drink is the way it releases the secret you - chatty, flirty and sexually free. Even if you do secretly relish some of this risky behaviour, the fact is that anyone of either sex who gets hammered on booze is making themselves vulnerable to abuse and it could all go horribly wrong.
The irony is you have the skills to cope without getting tanked up if only you gave yourself a chance. Ration your drinks and make conversation the goal rather than focusing on yourself. Nobody but you is bothered by what impression you create, so try to stop feeling so self-conscious. Then you'll not only have a good time, you'll be in charge - and be able to remember what happened afterwards.

Nemrut is the site of the eminently impressive first century BC mountain-top tomb of King Antiochus I Epiphanes. Also known as or Nemrud or as Mount Nemrut (Nemrut Dağı in Turkish), the site is famed for its 10-metre-high statues depicting various heads, both mythical and real in nature.
History of Nemrut
Mount Nemrut is located in the southeast region of Anatolia, Turkey. Crowning one of the highest peaks of the Eastern Taurus mountain range, the site is the Hierotheseion (temple-tomb and house of the gods) built by the late Hellenistic King Antiochos I of Commagene as a monument to himself.
A 50m high funerary mount of stone chips with a diameter of 145m is surrounded on three sides with terraces to the east, west, and north. Surrounding the tomb are a number of 8-9m high stone statues of the king himself, two lions, two eagles, and various Greek and Iranian gods. Many of the statues are now damaged, likely on purpose as acts of iconoclasm.
Antiochus may have been descended from Darius the Great and Alexander the Great, but his own Commagene kingdom is far less well known. Indeed, the grandeur of Nemrut has proved such a draw over the years that this UNESCO-listed site is often credited with putting his realm on the map.
The site was excavated in 1881, a German engineer assessing transport routes for the Ottomans. Further and extensive archaeological research has been conducted at the site, though the tomb of Antiochus itself has never been located.
Nemrut was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987.
Today, Nemrut is one of the most important and visited attractions in the country. A cold but sunny site, it is popular among visitors and locals alike. Nemrut is usually visited at sunrise or sunset, which are times considered best for admiring its still-life population.
It is important to bring walking shoes, water, and warm clothes; from the car park, it is a 600m climb to the top, either by foot or by a number of shuttle buses which depart every half an hour.
Getting to Nemrut
From Kahta, Nemrut is around an hour by car via the Adıyaman Diyarbakır Yolu/D360 roads. From the bottom of the mountain, it is best to take a sturdy car up to the carpark, and then catch one of the regular shuttle buses to the top. Again, it is best to visit the site at sunrise or sunset.


The work energy theorem states that work done on a body is equal to the net change in its energy. (P.E or K.E) Proof: Consider a body of mass ‘m’ moving with an initial velocity u. Let a constant force F acting on a body changes its velocity to v.
What is work-energy simple definition?
Work is the transfer of mechanical energy from one object to another. Since work is a movement of energy, it is measured in the same units as energy: joules (J).
What is the work-energy theorem physics in motion?
W net = K B − K A . According to this theorem, when an object slows down, its final kinetic energy is less than its initial kinetic energy, the change in its kinetic energy is negative, and so is the net work done on it. If an object speeds up, the net work done on it is positive.
What is work-energy theorem state its equation?
The work-energy theorem states that the net work done by the external forces on an object is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object. If \(∆K\) represents the change in kinetic energy of the body and \(W\) represents the work done on it by the external forces, then: \(∆K = W\).
When can you use the work-energy theorem?
In situations where the motion of an object is known, but the values of one or more of the forces acting on it are not known, you may be able to use the work-energy theorem to get some information about the forces.
What is work-energy theorem prove it in Brainly?
Work energy theorem states that the change in kinetic energy of an object is equal to the net work done on it by the net force. Hence, work done on a body by a force is equal to the change in its kinetic energy.
What is the definition of work power and energy?
Work, Energy and Power are fundamental concepts of Physics. Work is said to be done when a force (push or pull) applied to an object causes a displacement of the object. We define the capacity to do the work as energy. Power is the work done per unit of time.
How is work defined in physics?
work, in physics, measure of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force at least part of which is applied in the direction of the displacement.
What is difference between work energy and force?
Work is referred to as the displacement of an object when a force (push or pull) is applied to it while energy is referred to as the capacity to do the work. It exists in various forms like potential, kinetic, chemical, thermal, nuclear, electrical energy and so on.
What is work-energy theorem example?
For example, as an object falls in a gravitational field from a high elevation to a lower elevation, some of the object’s potential energy is changed into kinetic energy. However, the sum of the kinetic and potential energies remain constant.
Who created work-energy theorem?
W = Δ K E = 1 2 m v 2 2 − 1 2 m v 1 2 . The subscripts 2 and 1 indicate the final and initial velocity, respectively. This theorem was proposed and successfully tested by James Joule, shown in Figure 9.2.
Is the work-energy theorem always true?
It is instructive to note that the work-energy theorem given by equation (5) is always true, whether or not the force F derives from a potential.
Why is work-energy theorem important?
The work-energy theorem states that the total work done by all of the forces on the object is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object. This theorem is important because it allows us to predict the direction, speed, or energy of a moving object.
What is work-energy theorem BYJU’s?
According to this theorem, the net work done on a body is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body. This is known as Work-Energy Theorem.
What is the advantage of work-energy theorem?
What advantages does the work-energy theorem have? The work-energy theorem has the advantage that if an item moves from point A to point B, the work done on it can be calculated by integrating the area that is applied as a force and multiplying it by the work done.
How do you use the work-energy theorem to find distance?
What is the unit of work is?
The SI unit of work is joule (J). Joule is defined as the work done by a force of one newton causing a displacement of one meter.
How do you find velocity with work-energy theorem?
What is Work energy theorem Class 11?
The work-energy theorem, also known as the principle of work and kinetic energy, states that the total work done by the sum of all the forces acting on a particle is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of that particle.
What is unit of work and energy?
The standard unit used to measure energy and work done in physics is the joule, which has the symbol J.
What is the SI unit of work energy and power?
SI unit of work = joule (J) SI unit of energy = joule (J) SI unit of power = watt (W) Dimensional formula of work =ML2T−2.
What is work done formula?
Work done = force × displacement. W = F × s. The SI unit of work is Joule (J).
What is the relation between work and energy?
Energy should be transferred to an object to move it. Transferring energy can be in the form of force. This amount of energy transferred by the force to move an object is called work or work done.
What is definition of energy in physics?
energy, in physics, the capacity for doing work. It may exist in potential, kinetic, thermal, electrical, chemical, nuclear, or other various forms. There are, moreover, heat and work—i.e., energy in the process of transfer from one body to another.
What is the SI unit of energy?
The SI unit of energy is same as that of work, which is joule (J).

In the early fall of 1857, a wagon train of migrants from Arkansas to California was massacred in Mountain Meadows in what is now Zion National Park. The site was recognized as a national historic landmark on Saturday. The dedication seemingly closes a long-running dispute about the role of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the tragedy. So what is the story and what took so long to resolve it?
Once again the LDS church imposes their 'norms' on their victims.
The Baker-Fancher wagon train pioneers were mostly Methodists, therefore the Memorial should rightly have included a Christian Cross.
Even now years after this murder of innocents by a Mormon militia, we only get a Memorial purely on Mormon terms.
Show some respect, Please.Malky –Sep 14, 2011 08:51:21 AM

Movie Theater Coming to Chicago’s “Block 37”
CHICAGO, IL — According to an article in the Chicago Tribune, movies are making a return to Block 37, the long-vacant block of the Loop bordered by State, Washington, Dearborn, and Randolph Streets. Almost two decades after the last movie palace on the block, the United Artists, along with almost everything else on the site was razed, Muvico Entertainment LLC has signed a letter of intent to open an 800 seat, seven screen movie complex at 108 N. State Street. The Fort Lauderdale-based Muvico recently opened its first movie theater in the Chicagoland area, in the suburb of Rosemont.
The theater is now the second retail tenant announced for the 108 N. State project, along with David Barton Gym. The block will also include, among other things, the new studios of CBS' Chicago affilate, a residential tower, a hotel tower, and a transit station for the “L”, providing express service to the two major Chicago airports.
With the influx of residents moving into the Loop in recent years, the idea of opening a movie house at Block 37 seemed like a good idea to Muvico president Michael Whalen. “We think the demographics downtown are fantastic. We think’s it’s an up-and-coming trendier area”. Whalen says that he plans to sign a lease within the next month for 30,000 square feet on the fourth floor near the gym, opening in early 2009.
The theater will feature reserved seating, digital projection, and free popcorn, as well as a bar and restaurant operated by Levy Restaurants. Reserved weekend tickets are expected to run $13-$15 dollars.

The Government is currently reviewing National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England. Over half of the land we care for lies within designated areas, and we know first-hand how important they are to the people who live, work and holiday in them. In this blog, Simon Pryor, our Head of Landscape Scale Conservation, and Georgina Holmes-Skelton, Head of Government Affairs, explain the key points we have made in our response to what is becoming known as ‘the Glover Review’.
The National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act, passed in 1949, was a ground-breaking piece of legislation to give protection for many of the outstandingly beautiful landscapes in the UK. The National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) that were designated as a result have stood as England’s most cherished landscapes, enabling people of all walks of life to experience the natural beauty, history and culture that these places hold, and for which England is world-renowned.
Nearly 70 years later, in January 2018, the Government launched their 25 Year Environment Plan. Within this Plan they committed to undertake a review of National Parks and AONBs in England, to ensure that they are achieving the purposes for which they were created and are up to the challenges of the 21st century.
45% of Trust land lies within National Parks and 27% lies within AONBs. These areas are home to 2.3 million people, including National Trust tenants, and visited by more than 260 million people every year. The Trust sees everyday how important natural and cultural spaces are to the people that enjoy them, and we want to make sure that England’s most cherished landscapes remain special for everyone who lives, works in or visits them. We have taken several ways to engage with the Review, including meeting with the Panel and a visit to the Peak District. In late October, a formal call for evidence was launched, and we’ve now published our response.
Our conclusions and recommendations have been informed by experience from all around the Trust, and we have sought to come to a holistic view of how England’s designated landscapes are working. However, we are very conscious that there is a large degree of variation in terms of approach and practice. Different places face very different challenges. It is important that they are working with and properly supported by local and national government to achieve their aims and priorities, and that they have the needs of the nation as a whole in mind. While there are some fantastic examples of really great work out there, there are also some areas where we would like to see improvement.
It is well-documented that nature worldwide has been in serious decline over the last fifty years and it is a tragedy that despite being designated as National Parks or AONBs, these most precious landscapes have fared little better than undesignated land. The SSSIs within these landscapes have generally been well protected, but despite a lot of agri-environment funding, wildlife across the wider National Parks and AONBs has drastically declined or been lost. This is the biggest failing of the legislation, and the highest priority for this Review to fix. Our designated landscapes offer huge potential for the restoration and protection of our natural environment at a time when it has never been more under pressure; they can, and should be, demonstrating best practice, acting as reservoirs of high quality habitat and biodiversity and delivering ecosystem services in abundance. We therefore want to see clear vision set for how designated landscapes can become bold exemplars of landscape scale restoration, so that once again they are renowned for their abundant, diverse and vibrant wildlife.
There is a need to strengthen some of the tools that exist to help the protection of the special features of these sites, particularly for AONBs, who have particularly suffered from reductions in local authority funding and pressures to deliver new housing and infrastructure. We would like to see AONBs strengthened, particularly in terms of influence over land management, and granted greater independence to protect and manage their landscapes.
It is also important that these places deliver for people – not only those living within the landscape and in local communities, but also those who live further afield. It should be easier for people living in towns and cities to access and enjoy these places, and benefit from the opportunities for connecting with nature and experiencing our shared cultural heritage that they offer. A clearer focus on how our designated landscapes can benefit everyone today would be welcome.
There are several practical ways that we propose to help enable designated landscapes to better support nature and people, such as a review of funding and governance structures, supplementary guidance on major development planning, and increasing the power and quality of management plans. The world has also changed significantly in the 70 years since their establishment, and there is perhaps a need to be clearer on the role of National Parks and AONBs in addressing some of the most pressing concerns of the 21st Century – climate change, public health, and wellbeing for example. We would like to see central government set clearer expectations about how National Parks and AONBs should be engaging with these issues – which may require refreshing or reinterpreting their statutory purposes.
Most importantly the Trust believes in the value of these places, and the work that our National Parks and AONBs are doing. These landscapes mean so much to so many, and we want to see them delivering on their potential now and for future generations.

About Annie Chun's Seaweed Snacks
Annie Chun's Roasted Seaweed Snacks are very much like the Japanese nori seaweed used for making sushi, but they are roasted and seasoned to create a crispy, tasty snack. They are thin and paper like out of the container, but once they hit your tongue, they become chewy and filling, with numerous flavor varieties to choose from. These seaweed snacks contain very few calories and are low in fat. They fit into a meal plan, and offer huge health benefits.
Cracked Pepper & Herbs Seaweed Snacks are flavored with bold, savory herbs & spices providing a flavor-packed yet light, crispy, healthy snack to satisfy any midday craving!
Brown Sugar & Sea Salt Seaweed Snacks provide a sweet and salty treat to enjoy whenever the urge strikes as an alternative to overly sugary snacks that lack nutritional value.
Wasabi seaweed snack flavor is awesome and spicy, creating a savory taste sensation that promises to excite your palate.
The Sesame flavor is seasoned with a dash of salt and sesame seed oil. They have 30 calories or less and 2.5 grams of fat per serving, with the serving size being 10 sheets! They are preservative, MSG, dairy- and gluten-free, are low carb and low fat and are appropriate for vegan consumers.
Health Benefits of Seaweed Snacks
While many snacks, such as pretzels and chips, are high in carbohydrates, these seaweed snacks are not. Eating each 6-g serving of seaweed snacks provides you with just 1g of carbohydrates, so these items are perfect if you're trying to lower your carbohydrate intake, and studies show low-carbohydrate diets produce a quicker rate of weight loss than low-fat diets.
Seaweed snacks are also high in fiber, so including roasted seaweed in your diet helps lower your risk of diabetes and heart disease, but it also influences bowel health, because getting adequate amounts of fiber prevents diverticulitis, hemorrhoids and constipation.
Many snacks aren't optimal choices for nutrition because they don't offer many vitamins and minerals, but this is certainly not the case when eating seaweed snacks, as they provide you with 20% of the daily recommended intake of vitamin C. Eating foods rich in vitamin C helps your body heal wounds and maintain tissues such as teeth, bone and cartilage. It also aids in the production of collagen, a structural component of ligaments, tendons and skin.
The thyroid gland relies on iodine to function correctly, and without enough in your meal plan, you may develop an enlarged thyroid or other thyroid issues. Roasted seaweed is a good source of iodine, with one serving totaling 65% of the amount you should consume every day.

There is very little that can be said about Eric Clapton that hasn’t already been said; except I saw him last night.
I’ve been listening to the musician, in all stages of his career, over the past five decades and he has been around even longer than that.
Through the years I’ve grown to appreciate Clapton more as a performer, recording artist, and as one of the greatest guitarists of all time, but I’ve never seen him live; until last night.
He was everything (and more) that I expected, playing selections from his lengthy career, and paying homage not only the blues artists who have influenced him but also to friends no longer with us.
Clapton and his band kicked of the Toronto concert with a cover of The Band’s The Shape I’m in, a fitting tribute to his longtime Canadian friend Robbie Robertson. Then, later, a tune he once recorded with Tina Turner: Tearing Us Apart.
The show was filled with both popular hits and selections you could tell he felt like playing. With a catalogue like Clapton’s there could have been even more hits, but he did what he had to do.
At age 79, Clapton’s seemingly effortless prowess on electric and acoustic guitar was both mature and effective. There were a lot of “wow” moments.
It was quite an evening.
What else can I say?

Still I write.

Wednesday sits naked and ordinary waiting
between the bookends of social Saturday
and restive Sunday. The day is little more
than a cluster of hours or a stop on the treadmill. Indecisive and lonely
nobody chooses a Wednesday. Nothing happens on a Wednesday
and it’s the same each week.
Sept 11/01, a Tuesday. London Subway bombings: July 7/05, a Tuesday, also July 21/05, and also a Tuesday. Assassinations: John Lennon on a Monday, Martin Luther King Jr. a Thursday, and John F. Kennedy a Friday. Kurt Cobain’s body was discovered on a Wednesday, but he chose his way out three days earlier. Nothing happens on a Wednesday.
There are fewer concerts mid-week, and opening night is never a Wednesday. They never open the Olympics on a Wednesday. Nobody gets married on a Wednesday.
Yet I will choose Wednesday, or I will start with a Wednesday. I’ll begin with a page, a place where I can plant my thoughts. I have many thoughts, each week, every day (even on Wednesday), but I will commit to posting something once a week. There are seven days to choose from, and I chose Wednesday.
Now I may post something else on some other day, I’m like that (a true Gemini). If I am moved or if I have time, if the stars align or the moon gives me a nudge, or if something is really bothering me, I won’t wait for Wednesday. But I will post something each Wednesday.
Something will happen each Wednesday, every week. Right here. If you want to see, or wish to be reminded, sign up. There will also be a daily breath (usually 140 characters or less) and it will not be limited to Wednesday, but will, or should, arrive every day.
Until Wednesday . . .


Wuhan has set a goal to peak emissions ahead of Chinese targets, and has placed a strong emphasis on education and management of schools to create a generational shift in carbon emissions.
Wuhan, the largest city in central China, is growing rapidly. Building sustainability into future economic growth plans is a challenge for many Chinese cities, and Wuhan is demonstrating how more ambitious strategies can be put into place.
The Chinese megacity Wuhan has committed to reach its carbon emissions peak around 2022. The model-based action plan established yearly carbon emission goals by district and industry across the city, and received input from businesses and citizens during the drafting process. Schools are seen to be a key focus area for Wuhan, which has established a set of low-carbon management and education principles suited for middle and primary schools. This strategy is the first of its kind in China, and will foster awareness of a low-carbon life and society and help students understand what steps are being taken in response to climate change in their city and why. The city hopes that with teachers and students as knowledge brokers, awareness amongst the general public will increase too.
Economic Benefits – Based on the current carbon price, Wuhan will save around $370 million by 2022 with carbon emissions reductions.
Health Benefits – Reducing emissions associated with polluting transport and coal burning will also improve air quality and save an estimated 50,000 lives by 2022.
Presented by C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group (C40), Sustainia and Realdania – Cities100 2017 showcases leading solutions to urban climate challenges in five sectors: Energy, Waste, Adaptation, Mitigation and Transportation.
Available online and in print, Cities100 provides stakeholders an accessible format to explore achievable solutions for climate action in cities, and will be a useful tool for relevant groups ranging from impact investors and development organizations, to mayors and city governments. You can access the full Cities100 2017 publication online here.
