Green Spaces Along the Greenway
Brooklyn Greenway Initiative is leading the design development for new green spaces adjacent to the trunk 14-mile Greenway route, including the Naval Cemetery Landscape, Columbia Waterfront Park, and Williamsburg Bridge Park.
Columbia Waterfront Park is a planned green space that will provide a new amenity to the Columbia Street waterfront. The park will be developed on a roughly two-acre property that extends from Kane Street to Degraw Street on the west side of Columbia Street. The first phase of the park commenced in Spring 2014 when BGI volunteers completed a native grass planting.
The Naval Cemetery Landscape is a 1.7 acre site developed in partnership with the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation. The design is for a landscape of native plants beneficial to pollinators such as bees, moths and butterflies. Ground breaking will take place in the 2014. $2M in capital funding has been secured from public and private sources.
Williamsburg Bridge Park is a community-driven project where BGI and RPA have created an economic prospectus. Agency operations must be relocated before construction commences.
Additional green spaces are in the process of being identified, pending funds to study and develop designs that are in keeping with the Greenway plan.
A Community Park
The Columbia Waterfront Park is a gathering space for local residents and an access point to the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway in the Columbia Street Waterfront District. Program elements include a natural amphitheater, dog run, bicycle amenities for cyclists on the greenway and several shaded walking paths.
The first phase of the park commenced in Spring of 2014 where BGI volunteers planted a meadow in a section of the future park. The next phase requires securing funding from elected officials for the park's construction.
Better Walking In Red Hook
The planned Columbia Street Connector aims to improve the pedestrian experience between the Red Hook Houses, Columbia Street Esplanade, Red Hook Park and the route of the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway. This stretch of Columbia Street has low traffic and wide sidewalks, while the land uses in the northern three blocks are mostly industrial and commercial.
A design process is underway to improve the pedestrian experience using vegetation and plantings. By encompassing three distinct places along its nearly mile-long route, the Connector has the potential to benefit a variety of residents and recreational users of the area.

Goaltender Ben Scrivens is trying his best to ignore all the trade rumours surrounding Roberto Luongo and the Toronto Maple Leafs.
"I know (Leafs goalie James Reimer) ignores it, I ignore it to the point where we're not affected by it, but it's impossible to completely shove your head in the sand and not acknowledge that you know those rumours are out there," Scrivens told Brady & Lang on Sportsnet 590 The Fan on Wednesday.
Scrivens has played nearly his entire professional career with the Leafs organization, but is looking to make the 2013 the year he permanently breaks into the NHL.
In a hockey-crazy city like Toronto, being surrounded by rumours could have negative effects, but the 26-year-old chooses to look at the positive side to speculation.
"Honestly it's kind of flattering to have your name brought up in conversations like that," Scrivens explained. "It just shows how great this fan base is. When people are genuinely interested and genuinely care about the product on the ice and the team.
"When people don't have an opinion on their team it's generally a bad thing."
In 22 games with the Marlies this season, Scrivens is 14-7-1 with a 2.22 goals-against average, a .917 save percentage and has momentum behind him heading into Leafs training camp where he will be joined by several of his AHL teammates.
"I'm extremely proud of the way I played and the team played as a whole over the past few months here and I'm really proud that the guys that are going up (to the NHL) are leaving the guys down there (in the AHL) in a perfect spot to continue success," he said.
Last year Scrivens made 12 appearances with the Leafs, posting a 4-5-2 with a 3.13 GAA and a .902 save percentage. The Spruce Grove, Alta., native also led the Marlies to a Calder Cup final appearance.
"I've got a dozen games under my belt right now, which isn't a lot, but I've played over 100 games in the AHL now and I think I've put up a pretty good showing there so I'd like to think that I've earned the opportunity to test my hand at the NHL level.
"All I can do is go up there and play the same game I was playing with the Marlies and let the cards fall where they may."
Scrivens added that he is going into camp with no expectations on how the team should do, despite lofty goals from fans.
"Honestly I'm just going (into camp) focusing on my job and my job is going to be — if and when I'm asked to play — to give the team good goaltending and give us a chance to win on the nights I'm playing," Scrivens said. "I don't think it's fair for me to speculate on what our team goals are. All I can ever do is control what I'm going to do on the ice. I'd like to think that both myself and James can give this club good solid goaltending and give our team a chance to win each and every night that things are going to go well for us as a whole."
Scrivens will not be accompanying the Marlies this weekend when the team travels to St. John's to play the IceCaps on Friday and Saturday because NHL training camps are expected to open on Sunday.
Will Ben Scrivens earn a spot on the Toronto Maple Leafs this season?

Ebola: US suit stockpile causes shortage in Africa
Biohazard suits are in short supply causing prices to rise as a result of 'increased anxiety' in the US
The biohazard suits that protect healthcare workers from contracting Ebola are in short supply in West Africa following a stockpile by US health officials.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has ordered $2.7 million worth of biohazard suits as part of what it calls its 'Strategic National Stockpile'.
The CDC says the hoard is necessary because emergency services across the country need to have access to the suits in case they come into contact with an infected patient in an emergency room or responding to a 911 call.
There are only a few manufacturers capable of making the suits, which are considered a key weapon in protecting healthcare workers from infection and containing the disease. Manufacturers have been struggling to meet demand, leading to price increases.
Over 15,000 people have been infected with Ebola in West Africa and at least 5,400 people are known to have died from the disease. In contrast, there have been just 6 cases in the US and two deaths.
"The shortage shows how the deep anxiety over Ebola's arrival in the US has complicated efforts to fight it in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea," writes the Wall Street Journal's Drew Hinshaw.
A spokesperson for World Vision, the Christian humanitarian group, working in Sierra Leone said that the scarcity of biohazard suits was causing "sleepless nights" for volunteers in the region.
Similar shortfalls have been reported with powdered bleach and rehydration solution. Both play an essential role in disinfecting treatment centres and treating patients.
"If you have an earthquake, your stress on your supply chain will be for maximum one month," said Jean Pletinckx, the medical emergency coordinator for the charity Medecins sans Frontieres. "But in an Ebola situation, because the situation is not under control, you never know if a new wave will come," he added. "It's like if you have a permanent earthquake."
Ebola: first team of NHS volunteers arrives in West Africa
24 November
The first team of British volunteers from the NHS has arrived in Sierra Leone to join the fight against Ebola.
The team, made up of more than 30 GPs, nurses, clinicians, psychiatrists and consultants in emergency medicine will work on testing, diagnosing and treating people with the virus across the country.
"Every one of these NHS heroes will play a vital role in the fight against Ebola," said development secretary Justine Greening.
One of the volunteers, senior sister Donna Wood, explained why she and the others were heading to Africa. "I'd been following the stories on the news and I felt I had to do this straight away: I could use the skills I've got to make a difference and join a team to help bring the disease under control,"
The volunteers attended a nine day intensive training course run by the Ministry of Defence in York in order to prepare them for the conditions in Sierra Leone.
They will receive an additional week of training in the capital Freetown, before moving to treatment centres across the country where they will be working with established medical charities. The group will spend five weeks away, returning at the end of December.
Dr Gordon Gancz, general practitioner and senior lecturer at the University of Oxford described how the team would cope with being away from their families and in such a challenging environment during the festive season. "We've all got little things hidden in our suitcases for Christmas and we've already started planning a pantomime for ourselves," he told the BBC.
Hundred of NHS volunteers have signed up to help contain the deadly outbreak which has killed over 5,000 people in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. Further deployments will continue in the coming weeks.
"I want to thank the brave NHS volunteers who are heading to Sierra Leone today to help in the fight against Ebola," said Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt. "They embody the values at the heart of our health service, and their expertise and dedication is second to none."
There are now over 1,000 British military personnel, scientists, healthcare and aid workers helping across West Africa as part of the UK's £230m aid package to help contain the disease.
Ebola: health fears stop British journalist from hosting awards
19 November
A British journalist has pulled out of an awards ceremony in London over health and safety fears after returning from West Africa where he had been reporting on the Ebola outbreak.
Alex Thompson, Channel 4 News chief correspondent had been due to co-host tonight's Rory Peck awards for freelance journalists in London, but will now be replaced by his colleague, international editor Lindsey Hilsum.
Thompson had been on assignment in Sierra Leone until last week and has been widely praised for his brave reporting of the deadly outbreak.
And although the event "honours those who typically take risks to report difficult stories", The Guardian reports that organisers may not have been able to secure approval from all audience members. "The fact Thomson would have to shake hands with the award-winners might have caused some concern," it reports.
The incubation period of Ebola can be up to 21 days, but a patient is not infectious until they begin displaying symptoms.
The ceremony co-host, Sky News correspondent Alex Crawford, who has also been covering the outbreak in West Africa but has passed the incubation period, said it was "shame" Thompson would not be joining her as it "would have dispelled myths around the disease".
Crawford has previously spoken to the Guardian about how her team were treated as "social pariahs" after returning from the region. She also criticised mandatory quarantines, saying such measures were used "to pacify people who are ignorant".
"Just because people are a bit scared – it's ridiculous," she said. "We're going back to the Dark Ages"
In other developments:
- William Pooley, the British nurse who has returned to Sierra Leone to treat Ebola patients after recovering from the disease himself, says he is "frustrated" by the "woefully slow" international response to the outbreak, the BBC reports.
- The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has pledged a further $5.7m to help fund the development of experimental drugs to fight the disease, particularly the use of blood plasma. The organisation has already donated $50m.
- A doctor treating Ebola patients in Sierra Leone has become the first Cuban national to ever contract the disease, Reuters reports. He is being treated by British healthcare workers and is expected to be flown to Geneva for more specialist treatment.
Ebola: experimental drug trials to begin in West Africa next month
13 November
Clinical trials for three experimental Ebola treatments are set to begin in West Africa next month, as the official death toll surpasses 5,000.
"This is an unprecedented international partnership which represents hope for patients to finally get a real treatment," MSF spokeswoman Dr Annick Antierens, told the BBC.
The virus is now believed to have infected over 14,000 people, mostly in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea, according to the latest figures from the World Health Organization (WHO).
Three different treatments will be trialled at hospitals managed by Médecins Sans Frontieres, the medical charity that has been leading the fight against the current outbreak. Two of the trials will take place in Guinea, while the location of the third is yet unknown.
Professor Peter Horby, from the University of Oxford said the trials are crucial to containing the disease. "There's both the humanitarian need, a tragedy for individuals and for communities and we need to do everything we can to offer some hope to those communities," he said.
"But there's also scientific need, we have these products which may or may not work in patients with Ebola and the only way we can test them is during an epidemic."
Ebola: US declared virus-free as the doctor recovers
13 November
An American doctor who was diagnosed with the Ebola virus last month has made a full recovery, according to health officials in New York, and the virus is now no longer believed to be present in the US.
Dr Craig Spencer caught the disease while working for the charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) in Guinea. He has been under quarantine in a New York hospital and received a wide range of treatments, including an experimental drug and blood plasma donated by a recovered Ebola patient, the New York Times reports.
"After a rigorous course of treatment and testing, Dr Craig Spencer has been declared free of the virus," said the city's health officials. He is expected to be released later today.
They say he now poses "no public health risk" but the World Health Organization warns that men are still able to transmit the disease through their semen for almost two months after their recovery.
His case sparked a national debate on how healthcare workers returning from affected regions should be treated and led to some states imposing highly controversial quarantine methods.
Eight out of nine Ebola-positive patients treated in the US have survived, showing that with early intervention and more intensive care, the fatality rate outside of West Africa is much lower.
The current outbreak has killed an estimated 5,000 people in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.
In other developments:
- Leading charities have warned that one in seven women in Ebola-affected countries could die in pregnancy or childbirth because hospitals are so overwhelmed.
- Bill Gates has said he believed that progress was being made in the fight to contain the virus in West Africa. "Ever since the big intervention that started in August I think the world's done quite well - the United States and the UK stepping up with the most resources," he told the BBC.
- Google has pledged to give $2 for every dollar donated through its site to the fight against Ebola. Its CEO also said the company would immediately donate $10m to support the charities "doing remarkable work in very difficult circumstances", in West Africa.
- Bob Geldof and Midge Ure are re-releasing the iconic song Do They Know It's Christmas to raise money for the victims of the outbreak. It was originally released 30 years ago and raised £8m for famine relief in Ethiopia.
Robots could be sent to join the fight against Ebola
07 November
White House officials are meeting scientists to discuss the potential role of robots in fighting the Ebola outbreak in West Africa.
Robots are routinely used in some hospitals in the West and are often deployed to some of the world's worst disaster zones, but their presence could soon be extended to countries facing disease epidemics.
There is significant interest in developing robots that could help save lives in the current outbreak, according to the BBC's Jen Copestake.
"We're trying to pull the workers further away from the disease," Velin Dimitrov, a robotics engineering PhD candidate told her.
Robots could perform a variety of dangerous tasks such as waste removal, the burial of bodies, helping healthcare workers safely remove their protective clothing as well as the decontamination of surfaces. This would significantly reduce the risk to health care workers, almost 300 of whom have died during the current outbreak.
According to scientists, using robots would be relatively inexpensive. Existing robots could also be deployed to the worst affected areas, saving millions that might otherwise be spent developing new ones.
The robots will not be autonomous, but remotely operated by someone at a safe distance, say developers at the Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) in Massachusetts. There is no suggestion that they would be used as a replacement for health care workers.
"We have a moral obligation to try and select, adapt and apply available technology where it can help," Gill A. Pratt, a roboticist at the federal Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency told the New York Times.
Scientists are aware that they will face numerous challenges on the ground if "Ebola robots" become a reality.
"We don't want to be seen as capitalising on the tragedy," said Dr Ken Goldberg, a professor of industrial engineering and operations research at Berkeley. Nobody, he says, wants to be seen as someone who says, 'We're sending in the robots,' which sounds "insensitive and crass."
Scientists also have to be aware of cultural attitudes, as many West African people may be unwilling to accept the fact that a machine is handling the body of a loved one. "It's something we can do, but it has to be culturally sensitive," said Robin Murphy, a specialist in rescue robotics.
Scientists also need to make sure that the use of robots will not inflict any additional mental trauma on patients. People with Ebola already feel stigmatised by their communities, so it's important this situation is not exacerbated.
Ebola: UK-funded treatment centre opening in Sierra Leone
05 November
A British funded treatment centre and laboratory are opening in Sierra Leone as part of the UK's contribution to the fight against the Ebola outbreak in West Africa
Located south of the capital in Kerry Town, the facility is able to treat nearly 100 patients at a time and is the first of six British-funded centres built to help fight the deadly outbreak. It will be jointly run by the Department for International Development and the charity Save the Children.
Further treatment centres and laboratories are expected to be completed in the coming weeks and will be staffed with British volunteers from Public Health England, the NHS and universities as well as army medics.
Save the Children's chief executive Justin Forsyth told the BBC: "We've never done something like this treatment centre. It's enormous for us and it was a risky decision, but it's something I feel very proud about." He added that he and his team were in a "race against time" to contain the outbreak.
In total, the UK government has committed £225 million to help fight the outbreak in West Africa which is thought to have killed over 5,000 people so far. The government's response includes the deployment of 800 military personnel, the construction and staffing of treatment centres and laboratories as well as the training of local healthcare workers.
"Tackling Ebola at the source is key to beating it and stopping the spread, said development secretary Justine Greening on a recent visit to the region."Some of Britain's best and brightest scientists will be at the forefront of our UK-funded testing facilities ensuring that people with Ebola are isolated and then treated as soon as possible."
Visiting the new treatment centre, Sierra Leonean president Ernest Bai Koroma told the BBC that it was "very impressive," adding that he hoped it would "give a lot of confidence, not only to locals but internationally, to come here and work with us".
Ebola: infections rise 'frighteningly quickly' in Sierra Leone
03 October
The number of people infected with the Ebola virus in Sierra Leone is increasing nine times faster than it was two months ago, according to a new report by a leading charity.
There have been at least 1,500 deaths in Sierra Leone, with the fatality rate increasing the quickest in rural areas, ABC reports. On average, there had been 12 new cases every day in October, compared to 1.3 in early September.
"Whilst new cases appear to have slowed in Liberia, Ebola is continuing to spread frighteningly quickly in parts of Sierra Leone," the report by Tony Blair's Africa Governance Initiative said.
Nick Thompson, chief executive of AGI, praised the Sierra Leonean government for making positive strides in tackling transmission by improving access to treatment and making burial methods safer, but said much more needed to be done.
"We can't rest until Ebola has nowhere to hide. And we can see from growth in new cases in some rural parts of Sierra Leone that we still have no time to lose if we're going to get on top of this."
Over 13,000 people are infected with the virus and at least 5,000 are now known to have died, mostly in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea.
Separately, a UK appeal for donations to help fight Ebola in West Africa has raised millions of pounds in just two days.
The Disaster Emergency Committee has raised over £4 million, telling the BBC that it was "overwhelmed" by the "extraordinary generosity of the UK public. The government has also agreed to match the amount raised up to £5 million.
But the charities involved are appealing to the public to do even more to help. "It is getting worse, not better, on the ground here," said Justin Forsyth, chief executive of Save the Children. "We are not ahead of the curve, we are in a race against time and we need to urgently act – and money is very, very important."
Ebola: should returning medics and troops be quarantined?
30 October
A nurse who was put into quarantine after treating Ebola patients in West Africa is threatening to leave and take legal action, arguing that the isolation is a violation of her civil rights and will deter other volunteers from helping fight the disease.
Kaci Hickox, who returned to the US from Sierra Leone last Friday, was initially placed under precautionary quarantine in hospital in New Jersey. After several days, she was allowed to leave and serve the remainder of her 21-day isolation period at home in Maine.
She has twice tested negative for the Ebola virus and is displaying no symptoms, but state officials say precautionary measures must still be taken as the virus' incubation period can be up to three weeks.
Hickox points out that even if she was infected, she would not be contagious until she started displaying symptoms. She insists that the policy of quarantining health care workers returning from Ebola stricken countries is neither "scientifically nor constitutionally just", and a violation of her civil rights. Now she is threatening to take action.
"If the restrictions placed on me by the state of Maine are not lifted by Thursday morning, I will go to court to fight for my freedom," she told Reuters.
In another interview with the BBC, she said: "I am not going to sit around and be bullied around by politicians and be forced to stay in my home when I am not a risk to the American public."
Hickox also warned that the policy would be a "big deterrent" to health care workers thinking about responding to urgent calls for volunteers in West Africa. "It's already difficult for people to take time out of their lives to go and respond," she said, explaining that an additional three-week confinement could prove too much.
Her case has sparked widespread debate in the US over its quarantine polices, which vary from state to state. A three-week quarantine period for health care workers returning from Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea has been imposed in New York, New Jersey and Maine, with California issuing them on a case-by-case basis.
Officials in Maine in New Jersey say the measures are designed to keep the public safe. "[Quarantine] is a reasonable request to ensure – out of an abundance of caution – that we are protecting the people of this state," Mary Mayhew, Maine health commissioner, told CNN.
"While we certainly respect the rights of one individual, we must be vigilant in protecting 1.3 million Mainers, as well as anyone who visits our great state," said the Republican Governor Paul LePage.
The policy has been condemned by President Obama on several occasions, and he has called on states not to impose their own measures as science does not support the need for quarantines.
He said healthcare workers who have risked their lives to care for patients were "American heroes" who "deserve our gratitude, and they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect".
Obama has, however, authorised the forced quarantine of all military personnel returning from the region – even though many of them have not come into contact with Ebola patients and were in the region building treatment centres. When questioned about the discrepancy in policies by journalists at CNN he said: "We don't expect to have similar rules for our military as we do for civilians."
Ebola: DEC launches 'unprecedented' appeal
29 October
The Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) has launched an unprecedented appeal for funds to help stop the "explosive" spread of the Ebola virus in West Africa.
The group, made up of 13 of the UK's leading aid charities, has never before called for public donations for a disease outbreak.
"This appeal is completely unprecedented and that is a sign of just how serious the situation in West Africa has become," said DEC chief executive Saleh Saeed.
In its 50-year history, the committee has made appeals for humanitarian disasters caused by natural disasters and conflicts, but "we have never run an appeal in response to a disease outbreak - until today", he said.
Nearly 5,000 people are known to have died from the disease and more than 10,000 have been infected, but the World Health Organization (WHO) believes the real number could be up to three times higher. It warns that without large-scale intervention, there could be 5,000-10,000 new cases of the virus every week by December.
Saeed told the BBC that donations were urgently needed to help the affected countries and to prevent the outbreak from spreading further, warning that the committee currently faced a shortfall of £69m to carry out their work in West Africa. "This is a race against time," he said.
"Without urgent action to stop the spread of Ebola and to help those affected by the crisis, parts of West Africa face catastrophe within 60 days," Saeed warned.
Funds raised will be used to run treatment centres in the worst affected areas of Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea, provide protective clothing and medical supplies for healthcare workers, provide food aid to affected families and protect children who have been orphaned by the disease.
Just £25 will provide three families at risk of the disease with chlorine cleaning kits, while £50 will allow the charities to provide three healthcare volunteers with basic protective clothing.
To make a donation to the DEC Ebola Crisis Appeal visit www.dec.org.uk, call the 24 hour hotline on 0370 60 60 900. You can also donate £5 by texting the word DEC to 70000.
Ebola: 'thousands' more medics needed to fight virus
28 October
Thousands more volunteers are needed to help combat the Ebola crisis in West Africa, according to the president of the World Bank.
In an "emotional appeal", Jim Yong Kim said at least 5,000 more healthcare workers were urgently needed in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea, the BBC reports.
Over 10,000 people have been now been infected with virus, nearly half of whom have died.
"Right now, I'm very much worried about where we will find those health care workers," he said, as most would be too afraid to travel to the region. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that at least 443 health workers have contracted the virus and 244 have died.
He said he hoped that they would "understand that when they took their oath to become a health worker it was precisely for moments like this".
Meanwhile, US authorities have decided to quarantine troops returning from West Africa for 21 days in Italy, while Australia has become the first country to issue a visa ban on the affected countries, angering West African leaders. Critics say both moves will prevent volunteers from travelling to the region to help.
"Western countries are creating mass panic, which is unhelpful in containing a contagious disease like Ebola," Ugandan government spokesman Ofwono Opondo told Reuters.
"If they create mass panic ... this fear will eventually spread beyond ordinary people to health workers or people who transport the sick and then what will happen? Entire populations will be wiped out."
Ebola: paper tests for the virus in development
27 October
A simple and inexpensive genetic test for Ebola, using discs of paper, has proved effective at detecting two strains of the virus, say scientists at Harvard University.
The technology involves printing sequences of DNA onto paper and freeze-drying them. They can then be stored at room temperature and reactivated by adding water, like "living powdered soup". Once reactivated, the discs will change colour if they come into contact with the virus.
The tests are simple, cost effective and take just 30 minutes to display a result. The technology costs just £13 to produce and as the tests are easy to mass produce, they could end up selling for less than 2p, New Scientist reports.
"The fact you can leave these freeze-dried systems for a year, and they'll still work - that's quite remarkable," Professor Lingchong You, an expert in cellular reprogramming at Duke University, told the BBC.
However, more testing is needed before they can be distributed in West Africa. "Potentially, it's wonderful, but it's one thing to do it in the lab and quite another to manufacture it up to the standards required for it to work in real situations," says Ruth McNerney of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
Currently, testing for Ebola needs to take place in laboratories and is expensive. One of the main tests for the virus called RT-PCR can cost between £40-£130 per test and results can take up to six hours to develop, according to the New York Times. They are also less than 100 per cent effective and so need to be run twice for each sample.
Over 10,000 people have now been infected with the Ebola virus, almost half of whom have died.
In other developments:
- The US ambassador to the United Nations, Samantha Power, is currently on a tour of the West Africa and has criticised the global response to the outbreak. "The international response to Ebola needs to be taken to a wholly different scale than it is right now," she said.
- Mandatory 21-day quarantines for health care workers returning from West Africa are causing controversy in the US. The procedures were implemented in New York, New Jersey and Illinois but experts warn it could discourage medics from travelling to the region to help.
- An American nurse is taking legal action after being quarantined under these measures. The woman, who had been treating patients in Sierra Leone, says said she was made to feel "like a criminal". Here lawyers say her case raises "serious constitutional and civil liberties issues," the BBC reports.
Ebola: New York confirms first case of the virus
24 October
An American doctor who returned from treating patients in West Africa has become the first person in New York to be diagnosed with the Ebola virus.
Craig Spencer had been working with the medical charity Medecins sans Frontieres (MSF) in Guinea and returned to the US last week. He has been placed under quarantine in New York and is receiving treatment.
The 33-year-old doctor, who lives in Harlem, is now the fourth person to have been diagnosed with the disease in the US, along with a Liberian man and two nurses who treated him in Texas.
Spencer's wife and two friends have also been isolated and are being monitored for signs of the disease.
Mayor Bill de Blasio attempted to reassure New Yorkers that the threat of an outbreak in the densely populated city remained low.
"There is no reason for New Yorkers to be alarmed," he said. "Being on the same subway car or living near a person with Ebola does not in itself put someone at risk."
He told the public that Ebola is an "extremely hard" disease to catch as it is only transmitted through contact with an infected persons blood or bodily fluids and not through "casual contact".
He emphasised that New York City has the world's strongest public health system and the world's leading medical experts. Authorities in the city have been preparing for the arrival of the virus "for months", according to the New York Times.
MSF says Spencer complied with protocol, alerting them as soon as he began displaying symptoms on Thursday. "The individual engaged in regular health monitoring and reported this development immediately," it said in a statement.
Meanwhile, Mali has also confirmed its first case of the virus, the [2]BBC reports. A two-year old girl tested positive after returning from Guinea, making Mali the sixth West African country to be affected by the outbreak, although Nigeria and Senegal have since been declared Ebola-free.
More than 4,800 people have now died of the disease, with Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea the worst affected. The World Health Organization (WHO) also estimates that at least 443 health workers have contracted the virus, of whom 244 have died.
Ebola: blood serum leads the global race to find a cure
22 October
Serum extracted from the blood of Ebola victims who survived the virus could be made available to patients in Liberia in the coming weeks, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
The body is fast tracking several experimental drugs and vaccines to be ready by January, according to the BBC.
There is currently no proven Ebola vaccine or cure, but several pharmaceutical companies are racing to develop safe and effective methods of treating and preventing the disease.
What is blood serum and how does it work?
Serum is part of blood plasma and, in this case, is taken from a patient who has recovered from Ebola as it contains essential antibodies that can fight the virus. It has proven effective in earlier outbreaks, but the WHO has previously been hesitant to use it widely until stricter safety controls were introduced. Healthcare workers warn that the blood needs to be screened carefully for diseases such as HIV and the serum only be administered by health care professionals.
When will it be ready?
The serum has already been used to treat infected healthcare workers. Earlier this month, William Pooley, the British nurse who recovered from the virus donated his blood to infected healthcare workers in Texas. The WHO expects the serum to be more widely distributed in Liberia, the country worst affected by the outbreak, "within weeks".
Human trials are currently underway for several different vaccines developed by the large pharmaceutical companies GlaxoSmithKline and NewLink Genetics as well as the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Scientists hope that patients will react to the small amount of the virus and develop immunity against it.
When will they be ready?
The latest announcement from the WHO suggests that a vaccine could pass safety and efficacy tests as early as January next year. However, just last week, GlaxoSmithKline said their vaccine would not be ready in time for the current outbreak as safety trials would not be completed until the end of 2015.
The experimental drug is made up of a cocktail of antibodies harvested from an infected animal's blood and grown in specially-modified tobacco leaves. It works by stopping the virus from entering and infecting new cells. It has been used to treat dozens of healthcare workers, many of whom have gone on to make a full recovery. However, doctors say it is too early to know whether the drug is effective or safe in the long-term.
When will it be ready?
ZMapp takes a long time to produce even in small quantities and all available doses have now been distributed, according to its manufacturers. Supplies of the drug "will not be sufficient for several months to come" the WHO warned recently.
Developed by a Canadian pharmaceutical company, the drug works by interfering with the virus's genetic code and stopping it from producing disease-causing proteins.
When will it be ready?
Human trials were halted earlier this year over safety concerns, but the company recently announced that the US Food and Drug administration had partially lifted the ban, raising hopes that the drug could be made available in the near future.
Ebola: fresh deployment of UK troops to West Africa
21 October
Soldiers from the Royal Army Medical Corps have been deployed to Sierra Leone as part of the UK's pledge to help fight the Ebola outbreak.
Nearly 100 medics were joined by International Development Secretary Justine Greening, who is travelling to the region to oversee the UK's training centres. The medics will be working alongside 90 military personnel already stationed in the country.
The deployment forms part of the UK's £125m aid package to help the tackle the disease in West Africa. This includes setting up treatment centres, training healthcare workers and sending around 750 personnel to the region along with the Navy's RFA Argus.
"Halting the disease in West Africa is the most effective way of preventing Ebola infecting people here in the UK," she told ITV news.
"I look forward to seeing for myself how British Army medics and engineers, as well as our humanitarian and health workers, are spearheading the UK's efforts to contain and ultimately defeat Ebola."
The outbreak has killed over 4,500 people, mainly in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea.
Ghana's President John Mahama has said that vital medical supplies are finally beginning to reach the worst affected countries. Aid agencies have criticised major airline carriers such as British Airways for cancelling direct flights to the region as it impedes their ability to deliver essential goods and personnel.
European countries have already pledged £400m in aid to help stem the crisis, but the UK is pressing for that amount to be doubled, the BBC reports.
The BBC's international development correspondent Mark Doyle has said that while the UK's contribution is "significant", it has come "very late", as aid agencies had been warning of a humanitarian crisis since April.
Meanwhile, enhanced screening methods have now been extended to Gatwick Airport. Passengers arriving from West Africa face temperature checks, will need to fill in a questionnaire and will be observed for visible signs of the virus.
The measures are expected to be introduced at Eurostar terminals by the end of the week and at Manchester and Birmingham airports in the coming weeks.
Ebola virus factfile
What is the Ebola virus and what are the symptoms?
The World Health Organisation describes Ebola as "a severe acute viral illness". Early symptoms are similar to malaria and include the sudden onset of fever, intense weakness, muscle pain, diarrhoea, vomiting and both internal and external bleeding. There are five known strains of the virus, the one currently spreading across West Africa is known as the Zaire Ebola virus and is one of the most dangerous. Patients who do not survive the disease most often die from blood loss, organ failure or shock.
Where did it come from?
Scientists believe it was initially present in wild animals such as fruit bats living in tropical rainforests in equatorial Africa. The disease spread to humans when they came into contact with the organs, blood or other bodily fluids from infected animals through hunting.
How is it spread?
Ebola is highly infectious. It can be transmitted through contact with the blood, bodily fluids and organs, including skin, of sufferers or through indirect contact with environments contaminated by the disease. The disease can also have a long incubation period, up to three weeks, which allows it to spread rapidly before diagnosis and quarantine can take place.

Keep in mind that, just like Arch Linux, Manjaro Linux is a rolling release. This means that users don't need to download a new ISO image in order to upgrade the system to the latest stable version.
Boot options
The boot menu is exactly the same as on the other Manjaro flavors, allowing users to boot the live environment with or without proprietary drivers, check if the hardware components are correctly recognized, test the system memory (RAM), and boot the operating system that is currently installed. "Start Manjaro Linux" is the recommended option for all new users, as it will start the graphical environment powered by the lightweight Xfce window manager.
Default applications
Thunar is the default file manager, Mozilla Firefox can be used for all your web browsing needs, Mozilla Thunderbird is the default email client, and the Pidgin multi-protocol instant messenger application is there for any type of communication. The Steam client for Linux is also installed by default in this edition of Manjaro Linux, along with the HexChat IRC client, Viewnior image viewer, the powerful GIMP image editor, VLC Media Player, Xnoise music organizer and player, and the entire LibreOffice office suite.
Xfce is in charge of the graphical session
Besides the common utilities such as calculator, terminal emulator, text editor, clipboard manager, dictionary, document viewer and archive manager, the Manjaro Xfce edition also includes the GParted utility for disk partitioning tasks, and the Xfburn application for burning CD/DVD discs. We strongly recommend the Xfce edition of Manjaro Linux for new Linux users, old computers, and for all who want to discover the true power of the Arch Linux operating system.

This week started with gorgeous weather and a 3 mile family fun run down the Gilman Trail.
Julia ran about halfway with us and spent the rest of the time with Grant in the jogging stroller. I need to figure out a good running posture for the stroller because I think I was leaning on it too much and hurt my neck. Ouch!
Because of my neck, I missed zumba and Wednesday's run, but I had a great 4 mile run this morning.
I'm getting nervous about running outside. My treadmill is so safe and comfortable! I'm also wondering how the heck I'm actually going to run 13.1 miles without dying. I feel fine after 4 miles, but that's only on the monotonous treadmill. I get bored and tired. I'm hoping that getting outside will help those miles go by faster.
So with all this self doubt, guess what I went ahead and did yesterday! Signed up for another half marathon. Why not? I figured if I'm training for one in September, I might as well do another in November since I'll hopefully be in shape for it. Doing a second one also gives me another chance, since I'm guessing that each experience is quite different.
So my goal for last week was to run 12 miles, and looks like I did it! I'm also glad to report that with my new running shoes I now have happy knees. Yay!
Sunday 3 miles
Monday core
Tuesday rest
Wednesday rest
Thursday 2 miles core
Friday 3 miles core
Saturday 4 miles
Total: 12 miles
Goal for next week: 14 miles. Run 5 miles one day.

CHICAGO Processor and distributor A.M. Castle & Co. plans to focus on two key areas in the year ahead: integrating its legacy Castle Metals Oil & Gas business with Tube Supply Inc., and realigning its Castle Metals Aerospace unit.
There was little overlap between Houston-based Tube Supplywhich it acquired in December 2011 for $165 millionand Castle Metals Oil & Gas, president and chief executive officer Scott Dolan told AMM Feb. 26. "The beauty (of integrating the two) is to provide customers with one-stop shopping for the full array of oil and gas needs, both transactional and program business," he said.
Oak Brook, Ill.-based Castle has long focused on program business, supplying contract volumes of heavy nickel alloy and stainless steel bar products to such major oilfield services companies as Baker Hughes Inc., Halliburton Co., National Oilwell Varco Inc. and Schlumberger Ltd. Tube Supply, a highly transactional business that sells heavy-wall mechanical tubing, stocking a lot of inventory for fluid control, downhole and numerous other applications.
Oil and gas accounted for 25 percent of Castles revenues after the Tube Supply acquisition, up from 12 percent previously, Dolan said, conceding that the energy industrys demand cycles are uneven. "Its had some wild swings ... but long term, its a great end market to be in and will have great growth," he said. "Tube Supply leverages us better to meet customer needs in any cycle and take out some volatility."
By creating a new structure under one commercial leader, Castle will leverage its sales force to "cast a wider net, up toward the Bakken (shale) region," for example. "Thats exciting. It also opens up international opportunities. We are doing some (energy-related) business in the U.K., leveraging our industrial facility there by stocking oil and gas products," he said.
Asked why the integration didnt happen last year, Dolan said Castle brought the sales teams together but they lost some focus on the legacy business while focusing on Tube Supply. "We are now trying to get back to balance"integrating systems, warehouses, internal business processes and the sales approach, he said.
The companys aerospace business also represents 25 percent of total revenues. It has long supplied heat-treated aluminum plate to the aerospace sector, but over time "we have been trying to focus on complex subsystems using nickel alloys for (such aircraft components as) engines and landing gears," Dolan said.
Castle still sells heat-treated plate, but the company has become a supplier to the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program. Its Trafford Park plant in northwest England performs complex machining for BAE Systems Plc and supplies Eurofighter GmbHs Typhoon plane, a special project that became operational in the fourth quarter of 2012, Dolan said.
Although Castle will close its Kent, Wash., plant this year, it will continue to service its aerospace customers from other warehouses.
"The build rates and growth for aerospace continue to look good. We havent gotten our fair share, probably, but we are doing our best to deliver better product on time while staying lean," Dolan said.
All comments are subject to editorial review.
All fields are compulsory.
Every month American Metal Market takes a statistical look inside the marketplace.
We actually don't know who his investors are. At the point when we are ready, we will investigate further. There are just so many things to handle and there are a lot of items to be considered with the project."

Our school is looking to either purchase the SMART Airliner or the Promethean ActiveSlate. Does anyone have any opinions on the two or is there something else out there that would be better?
The salesman was all for SMART but we know he would earn from it if we were pushed. Didn't really get to see the ActiveSlate and what it could do, but we currently have 5 Promethean boards and NO SMARTboards. He did tell us that Promethean software was sold only as SINGLE licenses, but to get the SMART software we would have to purchase at least 1 SMARTboard.
Again any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Chico women's clinic worried vandals targeted them
Workers at a Chico women's center are concerned they may have been targeted by vandals after they found out a sign that sits out front had been torn down overnight Monday.
The Women's Resource Clinic provides counseling on controversial issues surrounding pregnancy and abortion.
When employees arrived Tuesday morning to find a sign that reads "Free Pregnancy Tests" missing, they didn't think it was random.
The clinic on the corner of West 2nd Avenue and The Esplanade is a place where women who may be, or are, pregnant seek out advice on options including abortion, adoption or keeping the baby altogether.
They're controversial topics but the clinic isn't too outspoken on which option they prefer-- although at their roots they are pro-life.
When the sign outside disappeared overnight Monday, it got their attention because of the effort it took to bring it down.
"We examined it and it looks like somebody cut it off," says Executive Director Brenda Dowdin. "I think it was purposed, I really do. We'd like to find out who did it--why they did it. Or if it was just some kids doing an initiation for a club or something. I mean, we'd like to know why. I'd like to know why."
A police report was filed online Tuesday evening so there's no indication yet that the case will be treated as a hate crime.
Dowdin says she and her staff want to make sure that if they were targeted this becomes an isolated incident.
Anyone with information can contact the clinic or the Chico police.

Livonia teacher fired amid allegations of mistreating special education students
Updated On: Jun 20 2012 06:27:41 PM EDT
The Livonia School Board fired a tenured teacher after allegations of mistreating special education students at Webster Elementary.
The School Board fired the teacher Monday night. The accusations include hand slapping, grabbing the face, loud yelling at students and force feeding.
The 12 students, between ages 3 and 5, were enrolled in a pre-school program at Webster. A school spokeswoman, Donna McDowell, said the mistreatment of students is distressing.
Livonia police investigated the teacher, a paraprofessional and at least one other employee at Webster. The police referred the case to the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office. A warrant was denied due to insufficient evidence.
One parent, who has been a persistent critic of Livonia Schools, said the behavior should have been stopped sooner.
"You failed these kids every bit as much as the teacher and the parapro handing out the abuse," said Loyd Romick.
Police were contacted in April about potential child abuse dating to last October. The school district said it investigated concerns about "the atmosphere in the classroom last fall ... but the incidents with the children didn't surface until April."
"During that investigation, other allegations came forward about the teacher's practices and behavior with students," said McDowell.
No one answered the door at the teacher's home, but according to the school district she denies the allegations.

Wiki Headlines
18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
An extreme safeguard which destroys the contents unless properly accessed
It is a fact that no safe can ever be impregnable. Even a meter thick titanium box could be cut through eventually. Security measures are designed with the intent of making any attempted break in so time consuming and recognizable that the thieves will be apprehended before they can succeed. So long as the thieves were somehow able to secure themselves sufficient time and privacy however, there are ways of penetrating just about any physical security. But while you can't make it impossible for thieves to get in, you can make it impossible to get anything out intact if they don't use the proper access method. So long as its more important that the contents stay out of the wrong hands than in one piece, you setup a failsafe that will destroy the contents before an attempted break in can be completed. The technique also has the advantage of not requiring any staff to check on the security regularly, and so is good for security that will be unattended for long periods. This is typically used to protect information rather than unique objects, as its easier to have a backup copy so that the loss of any single copy doesn't mean its lost forever. However it can also be found used with unique items that would be dangerous in the wrong hands, under the logic that its better for no-one to have it than the wrong people.

Nelson Mandela Dies at Age 95
Longtime civil-rights leader and former president of South Africa Nelson Mandela died Thursday due to complications from a lung infection. He was 95 years old.
Longtime civil-rights leader and former president of South Africa Nelson Mandela died Thursday due to complications from a lung infection. He was 95 years old.
Black Friday has grown into a weekend of consumer-oriented festivities starting as early as 6 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day. We've put together a guide as to who's open when and what kinds of deals you can find when you shop, either at brick-and-mortar stores or on the Web:
The bad news is that we're nearing the end of the college football season. The good news is that this week gives us some of the game's most heated rivalries with championships potentially on the line. Here are some of the big questions going into Week 14:
The long Thanksgiving weekend is filled with great games for football lovers. Here's what to watch:
UPDATE 3:15 p.m. EST: The lockdown and shelter-in-place orders have been lifted, according to the Yale alert system. Police have been going door-to-door on campus searching for the gunman, though authorities will not confirm whether it may have been a hoax.
The horror of asking out a member of the opposite sex has no place in one school.
Thanksgiving, of course, is a time to pause and reflect about all the good in our lives, but what exactly are we thankful for this year?
Thanksgiving means the whole family—in-laws, distant cousins, grandparents and grandchildren—gets together to share a meal, catch up and generally spend some quality time together. If you're the host, it can be a challenge to entertain such a broad gathering of people.
Would you go bungee jumping without a harness? This woman would.
It may be November, but that isn't stopping one boy struck with baseball fever.
Silly answers and game shows go together like Thanksgiving and turkey.
Thanksgiving, which we've been celebrating in America for centuries now, is a time of family, food and, especially, tradition. Even so, many of the stories we take as gospel about this wonderful holiday—wonderful if you're not endlessly bickering with your relatives, that is—aren't true at all. Myth, legend and wishful thinking play into a lot of the misconceptions surrounding Turkey Day.
