Sad News - Professor Sir Hans Kornberg FRS
It is with deep sadness that we have to announce that our former Master, Professor Sir Hans Kornberg FRS, died on Monday 16th December 2019.
Hans was born in 1928, in Germany, of Jewish parents, but moved to Yorkshire in 1939 to live with an uncle, although tragically his parents were unable to escape. At first he attended a school for German refugees but later went to Wakefield Grammar School. On leaving school he became a junior laboratory technician at the University of Sheffield in 1945, under Professor Sir Hans Krebs, who encouraged him to apply for a scholarship at the same University. He graduated in 1949 with a BSc Honour in Chemistry, and then went on to take a PhD in Biochemistry. After working for two years in the US he returned to the UK and took a post, again with his mentor Sir Hans Krebs, at the University of Oxford, where they collaborated on the first major publication on biological thermodynamics, and where he met and married his first wife Monica. In 1960 he was appointed to the first Chair in Biochemistry at the University of Leicester, which he held until 1975 when he was elected to the Sir William Dunn Chair of Biochemistry at the University of Cambridge.
Hans was admitted to the Christ's Fellowship in 1975 having been recruited by the then Master, Lord Todd, and was elected the 34th Master of the College in 1982, succeeding Sir Jack Plumb, and remained as Master until his retirement in 1995. Whilst Master he was President and a keen supporter of the College Boat Club which has a boat named 'Sir Hans' after him and another, Lady K, after his wife. Sadly his first wife, Monica, died in 1989 and Hans set up the Monica Kornberg Bursary in the College in her memory. He then, to his delight, met Donna and they married in 1991.
The word 'retirement' hardly applies in Hans' case. He left the Cambridge chair in 1995 to take up a position as a University Professor and Professor of Biology at Boston University in the US, where he has been teaching biochemistry ever since, living in Brookline, Massachusetts. His major research area is the nature and regulation of carbohydrate transport in micro-organisms, and he has published over 250 papers in professional journals.
He has received many honours for his work including election to the Royal Society in 1965 and a knighthood in the Queen's Birthday Honours List in 1978 for 'services to science'. He has been awarded 11 honorary doctorates and been elected into memberships of many eminent institutions, including the National Academies of Sciences of the USA, Germany and Italy.
Many in College will remember his puckish sense of humour and love of appalling puns. He and Donna often visited, the last time in the Summer of 2017, staying with the Master and her husband in Hans' beloved Master's Lodge, combining their stay with a visit to Hans' children and grandchildren, some of whom live close by in Bishops Stortford.
The funeral will take place at noon on Friday 20th December at the Falmouth Jewish Congregation, 7 Hatchville Road, East Falmouth, Massachusets. https://ccgfuneralhome.com/obit/sir-hans-leo-kornberg. Lady Kornberg has kindly suggested that donations can be made in lieu of flowers to the Sir Hans Kornberg Travel Award, a link for which can be found here.

Pretty Little Monster
Am I dancing?
I mean, do I really feel like dancing?
What are these ting tings?
What did they do to me?
I loved it!
The upbeat, it feels so good.
The feeling is at the edge of euphoria.
It burns, and it's great!
I'm addicted to it.
That's not my normal,
that's much, much better.
Are you calling me angel?
Oh, if you could read my mind,
if you had seen all my sins...
Are you calling me beautiful?
You, pretty little boy?

2018 marks 21 years since the first Harry Potter book was published, but it seems that J.K. Rowling continues to be humbled and astonished by her incredible success.
The author posted a photo on Twitter this week of a note she discovered when she was in a second hand book store, which reminded her of how popular and significant her books have been to her fans:
Second hand bookstores are always full of surprises but I did not see this one coming. pic.twitter.com/1cWDRABdvL
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) July 23, 2018
In a section of the store, Rowling found a shelf of books, that was labelled, not as simply fiction or non-fiction, romance or biography, but in a pleasantly surprising way. The label said, "Books you need to buy so you can say 'I should read that next' before re-reading Harry Potter."
Taking the wording of the classification of those books as the huge compliment it was, Rowling tweeted a photo of it, with the caption:
"Second hand bookstores are always full of surprises but I did not see this one coming."
The author, who is one of the most successful writers of all-time, may have been surprised by her discovery, but her fans were not. They tweeted their support in response, letting Rowling know how important she, and her work, is to them.
One fan said, "Surely by now you should know we're still madly in love with your books. They inspired a generation of readers, and they continue to inspire us. They're part of who we are."

Used Iveco Seat Belts
All used Iveco Seat Belts listed on Breakeryard.com are tested, original (OEM) manufacturer parts and come with a 14 day money back guarantee. Breakeryard.com list used car parts for Iveco are from premium breaker yards from across the UK, saving you up to 80% compared to main dealer prices.
About Seat Belts
The Iveco seatbelt is a vital safety device in a car, acting as the Primary Restraint System, helping to restrain and hold the person seated in the car secure in the seat in a crash situation, or when brakes are applied suddenly at high speed.
The Iveco seatbelt is a strong, retractable belt which is pulled across the driver and secured by clicking into a bracket fitted to the side of the seat. There are many different types of seatbelt, the two-point, the lap, the sash, the multi-point child's seatbelt, but the most common found in modern vehicles is the three-point seatbelt which consists of a strip of material or belt, anchored on three points around the seating position, that is placed over the chest and upper body and lap of the occupant.
The Iveco seatbelt works by stopping the body from flying out of the seat, minimising the risk of hitting the interior of the car, such as the windscreen. Seatbelts can limit the danger of serious injury or even death by stopping the driver or occupants of the vehicle being thrown out via windows, windscreens or doors in the event of a collision. They will also aid in safe deployment of the airbag as they will keep the occupant in the correct position should this be activated. Wearing a seatbelt, and ensuring it's worn correctly, can mean the difference between survival and serious injury or death in an accident.
It's law to have seatbelts fitted for every seat in the car and for these seatbelts to be correctly worn at all times while the car is moving. It's important that the seatbelts in your car are in good working order so that they can function properly when needed. The majority of faults regarding seatbelts are due to problems with the retractor system, either being stuck and not allowing the belt to unreel or not allowing it to be reeled back into its holder. The belts themselves may begin to tear or rip due to prolonged chafing and over-long usage. The seatbelt buckle may malfunction and not enable the tongue to insert correctly and be locked in place. When you need to replace the rear seatbelt on the driver's side, purchasing a Iveco seatbelt will ensure it's compatible with the make and model of your car.
Iveco trivia
- Iveco is actually five different European companies that formed in 1975. The brands from Italy, Germany, and France decided that they'd make more of an impact by pooling their resources, and the gamble certainly paid off.
- As winners of the IF Design Award in 2020, Iveco has joined the ranks of some of the most beautiful and practical products in the world. The prestigious award is granted to only the best in designed products, and the Iveco S-Way is the perfect example.
- There's an ongoing partnership between Iveco, FPT, and Nikola. The goal is to create a mass-produced electric vehicle. As of 2019, the first prototype was rolled out, but production is not expected to start until 2021.
- Between 1975 and 1979 alone, Iveco had more than 200 basic vehicles for sale, with over 600 versions in total! No wonder they had got such a big market share so quickly.
- In 1986, Iveco signed a deal with Ford to create Iveco Ford Truck Ltd, intended to make it easier to break into the British car market.

~ Four Foundational Facts ~
Ruined by Adam's Fall
our ruin
) ~ "
Therefore, just as through one man [Adam] sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned—(For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come [Jesus Christ]" (Romans 5:12-14).
Redemption by Blood
God's remedy
) ~ "
But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come,with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation. Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption" (Hebrews 9:11-12).
Regenerated by the Spirit
our need
) ~
"Jesus answered, 'Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, "You must be born again." The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit'" (
John 3:5-8).
Reception by Faith
our responsibility
) ~ "
So they said, 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved'" (
Acts 16:31).
"Jesus answered and said to him, 'Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things? Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness. If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish buthave eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God'" (John 3:10-21).
egeneration, and
eception are
acts of spiritual reality (4R's = 3F's).

Girl meets boy. Girl and boy dis each other. Girl complains that Asian men have no respect for Asian women. Boy laments that Asian women are never interested in Asian men. Such is the state of love, Asian-American style, as depicted in "Face to Face," a new work written and performed by the arts collective Peeling the Banana at the Second Stage Theater in Manhattan. For viewers, "Face to Face" offers a rare glimpse into loves and lives that are not often examined on stage or screen, says director Gary San Angel. "These are stories that Asian men and Asian women never tell each other. They are stories that are not told, period," San Angel explains. The vignettes in the show come out of the actual experiences of the New Yorkers who make up the East Village-based Peeling the Banana. The stories are at times funny, frustrating, poignant and painful, but always real. In one, "Connect Four," a South Asian woman worries aloud that the South Asian man she just met is interested in her because she is light-skinned. "What if he says to them, 'Well, she's Indian, but you could never tell,' " she says. "What if he's just trying to prove to his family that he can date his own kind.
" The war between Mars and Venus continues in "Honeymooners.
" A cloyingly cute couple disintegrates from kisses and coos into a Chinese-American version of Ralph and Alice Kramden, harboring disappointment and disillusionment. After nearly coming to blows, they begin to make their way toward common ground again. Like the relationships depicted in the show, "Face to Face" remains a work in progress. Group members who now number 20 include first, second and even fourth-generation Asian-Americans with roots in China, Korea, Vietnam, India and the Philippines. Most have limited experience as actors and writers. Bridging the gap Over the last 2 1/2 years, Peeling the Banana has evolved from a writing workshop for Asian-American men into a mini-movement that includes women as well. That shift represents an attempt by Asian-Americans to communicate across the gender gap, according to Hugo Mulchand Mahabir, a high school English teacher who has been with the group since its start. "For me, it comes out of a feeling that there's a tension between South Asian men and South Asian women in particular here in the U.
Most Read
S.," Mahabir says. "Different models of masculinity are considered attractive and valued by the society.
" Group member Sarita Khurana claims that the creative process is, for her, more important than the end product of the show itself. "You're working through the stuff and building it into theater," says Khurana, who lives in Brooklyn and teaches mediation and conflict resolution in the public schools. "I'm interested to see how people react.
" "Face to Face" will be performed tomorrow and May 11 at 8 p.
m. at the Second Stage Theater, Broadway at 76th St. Tickets cost $5. Reservations are required. Call (212) 787-2221. "Face to Face" also will be performed on May 16 at 8 p.

Unfortunately, Simpson and her natural curves have not been the only cast members in the franchise to be fat-shamed by fans. Here are 5 other cast members who noticeably lost a lot of weight after receiving hate from co-stars and trolls.

American President Lines (APL) of the US and International Container Terminals (ICT) of the Philippines have formally signed an implementation agreement with the Karachi Port Trust for construction of a new container terminal on a build-operate-transfer (BOT) basis. The agreement allows a six-month period for financing details to be finalised.
Muslim Commercial Bank and ANZ Grindlays Pakistan have been appointed arrangers of local cost finance.
The equipment supplier is also expected to be involved in the raising of finance for the project. Bank of America is the financial adviser.
The project will include two major contracts for the supply of equipment and construction. APL says that it is already in negotiations with a supplier and that a list of construction companies is being drawn up. Contracts are likely to be signed when financing has been put in place at the end of 1996. APL says. Completion is scheduled for mid-1998. The terminal will then be operated by a joint venture company formed by APL and ICT.

Jesus is Lord!
"Jesus is Lord!" was a common greeting among New Testament believers. They confessed a lifestyle of radical obedience to the Lordship of Jesus.
In the fullness of the Spirit
"Now Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, . . . was led by the Spirit into the wild. For forty wilderness days and nights he was tested by the Devil" (Luke 4:1, TM).
If Jesus was tempted, you and I will be tempted as well.
No work of grace will deliver us from being tempted. Temptation is not a sin.
The Lord encountered three basic temptations:
1. Flesh
"He ate nothing during those days, and when the time was up he was hungry. The Devil . . . gave the first test: 'Since you're God's Son, command this stone to turn into a loaf of bread. ' Jesus answered . . . 'It takes more than bread to really live'" (Luke 4:2-4, TM).
God-given appetites are good and necessary for life. Satisfying those appetites as God intended gives life. Satisfying the flesh in man's way destroys life.
2. Power
"He led him up and spread out all the kingdoms of the earth on display . . . 'Worship me and they're yours.' . . . Jesus refused . . . 'Worship the Lord your God and only the Lord your God. Serve him with absolute single-heartedness'" (Luke 4:5-8, TM).
We all have influence and power. Self-seeking power kills and wounds. Christ-centered influence empowers others. Our temptation is to want power for our ego gratification and to control others. "Jesus is Lord," means that we will not lord our influence over others.
3. Herd
"The Devil . . . put him on top of the Temple. He said, 'If you are God's Son, jump. It's written, isn't it, that "he has placed you in the care of angels to protect you . . ."
'Yes,' said Jesus, 'and it's also written, "Don't you dare tempt the Lord your God."' That completed the testing. The Devil retreated temporarily, lying in wait for another opportunity" (Luke 4:9-13, TM).
We all belong to groups that provide us with identity and community. Herd or peer pressure, however, can govern or curse us if we live to please people. In living for God's pleasure, I find my true identity and am free to serve others.
Christlike disciples are tempted to sell their souls and live for the gratification of the flesh, for the thrill of wielding power over others, or for the applause of others.
In the Power of the Spirit
"Jesus returned to Galilee powerful in the Spirit" (Luke 4:14, TM).
We find true victory through radical surrender to the lordship of Jesus. This must be followed by a daily surrender of the flesh, power, and the herd.
We overcome temptations in the power of the Spirit by using spiritual weapons that ". . . have divine power to demolish strongholds" (2 Corinthians 10:4).
I heard an evangelist speak of his previous addictive, sinful life. Upon conversion he was delivered from the temptation to use drugs and alcohol, dramatically. He shared, however, that he continued to battle overwhelming temptation to gamble each time he saw a casino. When he was tempted he:
- Called out the name of Jesus
- Claimed protection through the blood of Jesus
- Recited the Word of God
- Cried out in prayer
- Praised the Lord in word and song
- Used the "word of his testimony." He picked random phone book names and began to witness to strangers. His intention was to continue witnessing until Satan would leave him alone!
"No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it" (1 Corinthians 10:13).
Though every one of us will be tempted, we are not slaves to sin. By God's grace we are free to proclaim, "Jesus is Lord!"
Jerry D. Porter is a general superintendent in the Church of the Nazarene.

Gov. Cuomo jumped into the high-voltage battle between Con Ed and its union yesterday when he ordered the state's Public Service Commission to try to settle the dispute, warning, "There is a real possibility of a safety or reliability issue if this situation continues."
Cuomo was reacting to a memo from PSC Chairman Gary Brown claiming the regulatory agency was precluded by federal law from getting involved. Brown pointed out that the PSC had not intervened in the 1983 Con Ed strike, which lasted nine weeks, or the LILCO showdown in 1984.
"I respectfully suggest an alternative perspective," Cuomo wrote back. "When we can take steps to avert disaster before it strikes, it is a dereliction of our public duty not to act."
It didn't take long for the PSC to blink. "We are immediately reaching out to the utility and the union to set up a meeting," said spokesman James Denn after Cuomo's letter landed.
Cuomo instructed the PSC in no uncertain language to get a deal done.
"This lockout has gone on long enough," he said. "I urge you to bring both parties together to strongly encourage an expeditious resolution and to emphasize that both Con Ed and the union will be held accountable by the people of the state if their failure to settle the dispute contributes to service disruptions or impacts safety."
Con Ed locked out nearly 8,500 workers on July 1.
Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, reacting to a report in The Post that the utility was sending out wildly inaccurate estimated bills during the lockout that were resulting in overcharges, fired off his own letter to Con Ed Chairman Kevin Burke, saying he was launching an investigation.
De Blasio called the overcharges "avoidable, unnecessary and financially burdensome," and pointed out that customers can't challenge their bills because walk-in centers have been shut during the lockout.
The Public Advocate's Office set up a complaint hot line: (212) 669-7250.
Con Ed spokesman Mike Clendenin fired back that the utility would welcome a chance to meet with de Blasio "so he can be aware of the facts before he runs to the media."
Despite claims of soaring bills — one Upper East Side resident said he was hit with $235 in charges this billing cycle, compared with $72 last month — Clendenin insisted there hasn't been much change this year.
He called the month-to-month comparison "pointless," since usage increases as the weather gets hotter.
And he said customers can submit their own meter readings until the dispute is over.

I believe there are two possible causes for this press release by Seven Seas.
The first one may have been Zac Bertschy trolling the crap out of them with his last Answerman column in his typical "anime is for cool people; Escaflowne rocks; pedos, stay away" style. I read his column because he does offer *some* insight about the american anime industry, but whenever he starts talking niché anime, he turns into Holy Jesus himself. It's probably been a while since I haven't replied in the post-Answerman discussion threads on their forum where I'd suggest him or one of his colleagues to quit the biz.
The second one may be more likely--Seven Seas are effectively creating buzz to boost their future sales. If that's truly the case, I have to applaud them; they did good.

AnimeNewsNetwork is a business driven mostly by ad revenues. When content by itself doesn't suffice anymore, you either have to cover various controversial news or
news so it draws in more visitors. The following (hidden in the spoiler tag) is what
, one of their "senior" encyclopedist volunteers had to tell about the very people he helps with finding news and updating their encyclopedia.

You have no reason to apologize because, sadly, it's true.
Most, if not all, senior ANN staffs CANNOT read Japanese and possess little, if any, knowledge about adult gaming in Japan, an important element of modern-day anime and otaku culture that can't and shouldn't be severed from anime community. Some of those administrators had even announced their personal resentment towards this genre publicly (you should know which one I'm talking about...). They run the site in order to serve the North American anime fandom, with good connections with North American anime-related industries e.g. licensors; knowledge of otakudom and erotic gaming is not a prerequisite to run this site. We Encyclopedist volunteers, on the other hand, come from around the globe (thus most of us are bilingual or even more -- one of us is deca-lingual) and skilled with data mining abilities i.e. natural otaku -- even many would deny.
Now, back to the "H-Game maker" issue: while we non-core staffs do contribute news from time to time (I myself contributed the
news of
-- took them a full week to have it posted to the front page, though), we don't (actually, can't) participate in the final output of the news (review, column) items on this site. Even
my own articles
had been edited to a degree that deviated from its original intention without my acknowledgment (which incident drove me quite mad). In this specific case with KID, the purpose of the news was to introduce the event to the "average American anime watchers" i.e. those who have no idea of the terms I mentioned. Thus, in the eyes of news editors, a more understandable term (for average American anime fans) is better than an accurate but lesser known one, even the former has a very questionable neutrality. In the eyes of
editors, a debatable and firebrand term would be better (say, "Lolicon-game maker"), because that attracts more readers (which, of course, leads to more money), although I personally find this type of news "ethics" disgusting and repulsive.
To sum it up: bear in mind that this site's primary purpose is to serve North Americans, so accuracy and neutrality can be sacrificed in exchange of wider acceptance from "average American anime watchers." In my (and several others') not-so-humble opinion, however, "average American anime watchers" won't even pass the front page, let alone participate discussions over the forum; whoever signs up and participates actively are at least moderately passionate fans.
