UC Davis Names Recipients of 2020 Chancellor's Innovation Awards
The University of California, Davis, today (June 15) named the recipients of the 2020 Chancellor's Innovation Awards. The awards recognize faculty, project teams and community partners for their work, dedication and success in improving the lives of others and addressing the needs of our global society through innovative solutions.
"Research universities like UC Davis play a critical role in advancing innovative solutions for the global community that not only stimulate our economy but create a better quality of life," Chancellor Gary S. May said. "The recipients of this year's awards demonstrate the impact of reaching beyond what is expected to deliver game-changing innovations that address some of the world's most critical issues."
The awards comprise Innovator of the Year, Innovative Community Partner and Lifetime Achievement in Innovation. The program is managed by the Office of Research.
"Some of the greatest examples of bold innovation emerge when experts from different disciplines work together to solve a problem," said Prasant Mohapatra, vice chancellor for research. "Many of the recipients for this year's awards illustrate just how effective those collaborations can be."
Innovators of the Year
- Ramsey Badawi and Simon Cherry, for development of EXPLORER, the world's first total-body positron emission tomography, or PET, scanner.
- Daniela Barile, Bruce German, Carlito Lebrilla, David Mills, Jennifer Smilowitz and Mark Underwood, for advancing infant health through microbiome restoration.
The Innovator of the Year awards recognize individual faculty, staff or teams whose innovative research or accomplishments have made a measurable societal impact in the preceding year, or whose activities have achieved important milestones and present very strong potential for societal impact. Recipients receive $10,000 to apply to their research or community engagement efforts.
Ramsey Badawi, professor and vice chair of research in the Department of Radiology, and Simon Cherry, Distinguished Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, developed EXPLORER with the intent to fundamentally change the way cancers and other diseases are studied and diagnosed. Cherry and Badawi conceived of the idea in 2005 and worked relentlessly to bring their vision to fruition — reaching the major milestone of clinical implementation for patient care in 2019.
The novel EXPLORER whole-body scanning technology has the potential to revolutionize human health by providing comprehensive imaging data for disease diagnosis and treatment and by enabling entirely new fields of biomedical research.
Traditional PET scanners use short-lived radioactive tracers to show how organs and tissues are functioning in the body, only scanning approximately 20-centimeter segments at one time. In contrast, the EXPLORER can image the entire human body all at once, revealing system interactions that were previously unavailable.
The EXPLORER also has the capability of producing much higher quality images than any other prior PET scanner, or alternatively of reducing the radiation exposure to the subject by as much as 40-fold.
Cherry and Badawi developed and tested several prototypes to prove the concept using RISE Grant funding from the Office of Research. This work led to a $15.5 million Transformative Research Award from the National Institutes of Health, which laid the foundation for a partnership with United Imaging Healthcare to develop a system for human clinical trials.
The Food and Drug Administration approved the scanner in late 2018, and UC Davis Health subsequently opened its EXPLORER Molecular Imaging Center in Sacramento — the first combined research and clinical total-body PET center in the world. EXPLORER scanned its first human research subject in June 2019 and first clinical patient the next month.
The technology is already being used in groundbreaking studies tracking HIV reservoirs in patients with quiescent disease, measuring the metabolic parameters of cancer in vivo, and looking at systemic inflammatory responses of patients with recent heart attacks. More than 300 research and clinical cases have been completed in the first year of operation.

A 'heist' appears to have been caught in action on Google Maps - but on closer inspection is one prankster immortalised 'holding up' another with a glue gun.
Dad-of-one Darren Honeyman and his colleague of 15 years Dave Hutchinson were at work in Darlington, County Durham, in January when they spotted a Google Earth van approaching around the corner.
Unable to resist the temptation to have their antics recorded for the world to spot while browsing Google, the pair staged the mock hold-up with just a few seconds' notice.
The 52-year-old can be seen pointing what looks like a large gun at Dave, 38, while he stood there frozen with both hands in the air - but with careful zooming in it is possible to spot the 'weapon' is in fact a glue gun.
The electrical engineer said that the spontaneous snap was 'just a bit of fun' and joked that they were practicing for their 'next pork pie heist' as it was taken outside a 'famous' butchers.
The 'hilarious' snap has amassed more than 1,200 likes, comments and shares on Facebook and the pair have even been hailed as 'complete legends' for their opportunistic comedy stunt.
Darren, from Darlington, County Durham, said: "We happened to just be at work and we pulled around the corner and saw the Google Earth van come around and I said 'for once, we'll have a pose that we set'.
"The nearest thing that we had was the glue gun and ourselves so we jumped out and did the pose just for a bit of fun.
"I'm the one holding the gun - Dave's the one getting mugged.
"There's a famous pie shop called Taylor's that's why I said it's a stick up for a pie - we were practicing for our next pork pie heist.
"It gave us both a laugh - you can't take yourself totally seriously all the time and you've got to see the funny side of most stuff."
The father-of-one said they were caught out on Google Earth a few years previously while him and Dave were trying to open shutters that had seized on their business premises
He said they'd spotted the 'strange' snap of them by chance when looking on Google Earth so when they noticed the van this time around he said 'for once, we'll have a pose that we set'.
Darren said: "We found out through a couple of people and even someone in the shop said 'you're famous'.
"A neighbour said 'look, check out what you've both been doing' and someone had put it on Facebook.
"Someone must have checked Google Earth for some reason, saw that and posted it.
"We just took the chance as it came - most people would have just walked past I don't know."
Dave added: "It was just a laugh - we have a bit of a [joke about] at work."

Three common mistakes we usually make when washing our hair
Should I wash my hair after every workout, is it okay to apply conditioner on my scalp and should I clean my hairbrush? We're addressing 3 common questions and mistakes that many of us make.
1. We wash our hair incorrectly and too irregularly
Many people forget that grease, dirt and product residues accumulate on the scalp. Therefore, it's extra important to clean your scalp when washing your hair! The trick is to mainly focus on washing your scalp as this will result in the rest of your hair being cleaned as well. Wash your hair by massaging the shampoo into your scalp until it ladders. Then rinse your hair thoroughly, making sure that it's properly cleaned.
It's extra important to wash your hair and scalp properly after exercising as harmful bacteria otherwise will accumulate in the sweat. Sweaty and unwashed hair can lead to persistent problems with itching and dandruff, therefore it's important to wash your hair after every workout. Although, make sure that you choose deep cleansing haircare products that are gentle on your hair and scalp to ensure that you don't dry them out. For example, the new haircare series Björn Axén Sport.
2. We use conditioners and hair masks in the wrong way
Did you know that 1 in 4 Swedes experience issues with their scalp and that the majority concern problems linked to dryness? In worse case a dry scalp can lead to hair loss as the blood supply to the hair follicles is affected. Therefore, it's only a myth that you shouldn't use conditioner on the scalp and it's in fact important to use moisturizing conditioner there. For this reason, our products are specially developed to be used on the scalp without straining the hair or making it oily.
A common mistake that many people make is that they start using hair masks when their hair is already damaged and dry. The trick is to start using hair masks when the hair is still healthy as this will help you maintain a strong and beautiful looking hair.
3. We use dirty hairbrushes in newly washed hair
When was the last time you cleaned your hairbrush? A common mistake that many people make is forgetting to regularly wash their hairbrush which leads to dirt accumulating in the hair quickly again. A tip is to clean your hairbrush at least once a week to better keep your hair fresh and maintain that newly washed feeling longer.

Congratulations to Derrick Webb and Charlye Williams!
The Institute of the History of Medicine extends our warmest congratulations to Derrick Webb and Charlye Williams, who conducted research as part of the Department of the History of Medicine's Summer Research Early Identification Program (SREIP). The SREIP is coordinated by the Leadership Alliance, which connects promising undergraduates to fully-funded summer research opportunities.
At Johns Hopkins, SREIP students participate in the Humanities Collaboratory, an innovative peer-led environment designed and coordinated bv Dr. Natalie Strobach and Dr. Julie Lirot. Derrick and Charlye also studied with Dr. Jeremy Greene, chair of the Department of the History of Medicine, and Dr. Graham Mooney, Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of the History of Medicine.
Please join us in congratulating Derrick Webb and Charlye Williams for the extraordinary and important research they completed this summer—and under difficult circumstances, due to the devastating COVID-19 pandemic. We are grateful that they chose to join the Department of the History of Medicine for the summer, and we look forward to learning how their scholarly and professional careers develop.
Charlye Willams
Charlye Williams, an undergraduate student at Howard University, aspires to train as a doula before attending medical school to become an obstetrician. Williams undertook a research project closely related to her professional goals. She studied the historical marginalization of African American midwives in the United States, and argued that historical analysis is key to addressing contemporary racial disparities in maternal health outcomes.
As she explained: "I chose this topic to help me better understand the positive influence midwives and doulas make on maternal health outcomes, as well as to give me a holistic perspective when practicing medicine as an OB/GYN. I would like to integrate the two professions to improve Black women's health."
Charlye envisions practical applications for the knowledge she gained. As she reflected, "with the experience I gain as a doula and the research I have done about midwives, I will apply that to modern medicine by listening to my patients and finding ways to make them feel more comfortable." Analyzing healthcare "from a historian's point of view has been essential in my academic career… [this training] helped me be a more critical thinker and allowed me to look at broader scopes of research" on maternal health disparities. Charlye's supervisor for this research was Dr. Elizabeth O'Brien.
Derrick Webb
Derrick Webb joined us from New Orleans, where he is currently a student at Dillard University. He completed a research project entitled "Past, Present, and Future: The Historical Continuity of Medical Racism and COVID-19 vaccination within the Alabama Black Community." His primary supervisor was Dr. Alexandre White.
Derrick's project combined his interests in healthcare policy and advocacy, medical humanities, and biomedical ethics. He analyzed "how the COVID-19 vaccination provided a framework for exacerbated skepticism in the healthcare field as it relates to the Alabama Black community." Like Charlye, Derrick's research was initially inspired by his situated knowledge; as he explains, "Coming from a disadvantaged and underrepresented background ignited my passion to explore the problematic racial structures that Black, Indigenous, and People of Color endure daily in medicine." Both scholars have valuable voices in these fields of study; their passion and dedication promise new insights into complex historical and social issues.
In the future Derrick hopes to expand his research "to the two southern states of Mississippi and Louisiana and examine widespread health disparities that plague both states and study the rural Black communities." He also plans to pursue a dual M.D./M.P.H. or M.D./Ph.D. and work in healthcare policy in order to explore "methods that will combat health inequities and disparities and create a more diverse healthcare workforce for all."

Ripon Advance News: Fitzpatrick leads call for legal standard to curb excessive political gerrymandering
U.S. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) led dozens of current and former lawmakers on Wednesday in calling on the U.S. Supreme Court to limit partisan gerrymandering in the Gill v. Whitford case that will be heard on Oct. 3.
The Campaign Legal Center (CLC) challenged Wisconsin State Assembly electoral district lines that were drawn in 2011 as an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander on behalf of 12 Wisconsin voters.
Trevor Potter, the president of CLC and former Republican chairman of the Federal Election Commission, said he was pleased to see many of "America's most accomplished Republican leaders urging the Supreme Court to rein in excessive partisan gerrymandering."
"They know that the legitimacy of all elected officials comes from being freely chosen by voters, not by seizing power from voters to keep themselves in control," Potter said. "We are confident that when the justices see how pervasive and damaging this practice has become, the Supreme Court will adopt a clear legal standard that will ensure our democracy functions as it should."

BM Hospital Logistic Service
A transport management system specially adapted for transport and logistics work at hospitals
The BM HOSPITAL LOGISTICS SYSTEM™ is a transport management system specially adapted for transport and logistics work at hospitals. It covers the areas of transport order planning, management, and execution, as well as the tracking, follow-up and invoicing of patient and goods transports.
It all started back in 2005, when Karolinska Hospital wanted to digitalise its patient transport system. Since then, we have collaborated with our customers to drive the development forward at a rapid pace, and today's solution covers most types of work transport and logistics work for hospitals of every size. The system is currently used by most hospitals in the Stockholm, Uppsala and Värmland regions.
With our intelligent BM Hospital Logistics System™ management system, everything can be digitalised. You'll be spared the hassle of placing verbal orders over the phone, as well as all unnecessary paperwork. All order details need only be entered once – after that they will continue to be delivered to the right person at the right time. The carrier can easily generate action histories for performed assignments. With a simple tap on a smartphone screen, statistics/invoice documents are created automatically. This minimises the risk of errors, while simultaneously streamlining work and making it possible to process more assignments per day with the same resources.
The introduction of the system is surprisingly quick and easy. Within 4-6 weeks you will have the basic system up and running, and can then start to considerably lighten the workload of your order reception team. We usually think of the launch process as a three-stage rocket. In the first step, we help you get the right information into the system – addresses, carriers and the initial services you wish to offer your customers. In step two, the deployment takes place with the installation of the programme system and personnel training. Of course, the final step comes when you start to use the system – but most importantly, it also involves working to continuously improve it and to incorporate more and more services that need to be digitalised. That's where our experienced business consultants come in handy – they possess a wealth of knowledge about how other hospitals work.
The BM Hospital Logistics System™ is a highly scalable programme system that can be used by the country's largest hospitals, but also by small, outsourced care locations where there may only be one attendant who works part-time and manages his own jobs. The system is usually operated centrally, and separate services (sites) are created for the region's various hospitals and transport departments. For example, this means that the transport orders are submitted to a particular hospital, but the same transport manager can process the orders of several hospitals at the same time.
The system consists of a basic service and a number of additional modules
- Basic service for transport departments/hospitals
- Itinerary management module
- Freight tracking module
- MT transport module.
Our transport management system for internal transports at hospitals has been developed over the past 15 years in close collaboration with Sweden's largest hospitals. Its features are fully adapted to the needs of the business. This means that it has user friendly interfaces and features that work in practice, and which are quick and easy to use – no matter whether the user is an orderer, a supervisor, or a carrier.
The introduction of a digital way of working doesn't merely ensure that all information is processed properly and that transports are safe and traceable. Work methods, workflows, and responsibilities also become clearer when systems can help control who should do what, and when. In businesses like these, which have many different types of assignments and where there are many different customers and delivery locations, it is especially important to get the business in order and create a better working environment for the staff.

As a critical day draws near in Iran, which will see subsidies on basic commodities being lifted, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has launched a campaign to portray himself as a poor man, a man without a penny in his pocket; Ahmadinejad claims to drive a 1977 Peugeot 504, and says that his original salary as a university lecturer did not exceed $250 per month. [According to this campaign] Ahmadinejad only owns a modest house in a poor neighbourhood in southern Tehran, a house where he continued to reside until he became president. Ahmadinejad claims to have resided in this modest home even after he became Mayor of Tehran, refusing to move into the palace that is the official residence for this post.
All that has been said about his modest lifestyle and poverty may be entirely true, however this must also be subject to scepticism considering the position that he currently holds. However Ahmadinejad cannot conceal aspects of his lifestyle under the ragged coat that he is keen to wear in Iran when he is seen dressed in elegant suits during his most recent visit to New York.
Ahmadinejad is not the only leader to try this; numerous leaders have been eager to portray themselves to the populace as being poor and common people. However this quickly becomes nothing more than propaganda, as was the case with Chinese leader Mao Zedong. Mao pursued many who he deemed to be members of the bourgeois, confiscating their property at the same time that he himself was residing in a number of luxurious palaces. This was also the case with leaders in the Kremlin during the Communist Era, who led a prosperous life enjoying special privileges. All revolutionaries are keen to appear to the public as being underprivileged. For example, prominent leaders in Hamas previously distributed pictures of themselves, living in modest homes. However, following this, they were responsible for the destruction of half of Gaza, contributing to further poverty and fostering equality [amongst its people], albeit in terms of destitution and suffering.
The underprivileged leader who is of the common people is a form of propaganda that may convince the public for a while, and may help in bringing this leader who lives in the palace closer to the populate for a time, however this is a façade that does not last for very long and becomes irrelevant when he fails to manage the state's affairs. This is a situation that Ahmadinejad finds himself facing today. Ahmadinejad will not benefit from portraying himself as a poor man who has an old Peugeot in his presidential garage. In the next few weeks, his government will lift subsidies on meat, vegetables, fuel, diesel and other basic commodities; people will suffer, and the poor will become even poorer. Will the story of the poor president convince them to tighten their belts? I doubt it.
Many talk about the excessive wealth of their leaders, but they would talk about this even more if their leaders were impoverishing them. I believe that Ahmadinejad will face difficult days to come, regardless of his propaganda machine promoting the story of the poorest president in the world, and in fact he will need his suppressive forces and Revolutionary Guards. The people will pay no attention to this story when they are no longer able to feed their children.
US President Barack Obama was born into a middle-class family that was not rich at all. Once he entered the White House, he immediately signed contracts to write his biography in two volumes for $10 million.
Ahmadinejad could be both a great and wealthy leader at the same time, if he could resolve the crisis in Iran whose people are living in hardship due to the policies adopted by Iran's mullahs, who are eager to sit in front of television cameras and boast of their poverty. Iran is in fact wealthier than the all of the Gulf States, yet Iranians look to these states, envious of their wealth, and wonder how the people of their country, which is rich in oil, gas, and agriculture, live upon subsidies and cheap propaganda.

COVID-19 scam targeting DVA clients
There's a scam being sent to DVA clients and others purporting to be from DVA and COVID-19 support payments – DO NOT FALL FOR IT.
The email subject relates to COVID-19 payments offered by the Australian government, and the hosted content includes the myGov branding, which appears legitimate to recipients.
However, the scam prompts users to provide scans of their passport and driver's licence in addition to a picture of themselves holding the documents.
If you receive an email of this nature, either at work or home, do not open the attachment or click on any link.
You should delete the email immediately.
Three simple rules to remember to protect yourself and your information from malicious emails are:
- Don't open messages if you don't know the sender, or if you're not expecting them.
- Be suspicious of messages that are not addressed directly to you, or don't use your correct name.
- Don't reply to or forward chain letters you receive by email.
And don't click links in emails that are even slightly suspicious. Google-search for the right information instead [CONTACT tip].

A squatter is more like a guest who is not willing to leave. Imagine hosting a gathering, and one of the guests refused to leave? It can be annoying and frustrating as they have already overstayed their welcome. Squatting is when a person decides to live on property without the owner's permission.
Most states have established squatter laws and rights. However, this depends on the time they may have occupied the property. This suggests that a squatter can be registered as the property owner if they have occupied the property for a long time, even without the owner's permission. The squatter can successfully apply for ownership if they have been on the property for 10-12 years. They also must prove that they did not have the owner's permission and have acted as the property owners as long as they have lived on it.
This guide gives you expert advice on how to protect your property, limit its access to squatters, the legal rights of both the landlord and the squatter, and how to evict a squatter lawfully.
Who is a Squatter?
A squatter is a person living and possessing land without legal permission. Quite often, the property is entered and occupied illegitimately. In some cases, the property may be acquired by fraudulent means.
Squatting applies not only to residential property but also to commercial property. Squatters may occupy abandoned commercial property like schools and hospitals.
What Are Squatters' Rights?
Squatting is an act of property violation. However, evicting a squatter from the property is not very easy. Some regulations and procedures are implemented for squatter eviction in every state. Squatter rights are a set of laws designed and written by the government according to the Homestead Act of 1862. This means that there are laws protecting a squatter as long as they are eligible to stay on the specific property. Squatters must pay taxes and other property fees for legal rights over the property.
These rights will protect the squatter from:
- Eviction without notice
- Any form of violence during an eviction
Any of these can be a valid basis to file a lawsuit against the property owner. Squatters have rights because it's more affordable to live in an abandoned home due to the high living costs and expensive housing. Arguably, a squatter can be a law-abiding citizen.
A squatter is also very different from a renter or trespasser. A renter will resolve any disputes with their landlord as per the landlord-tenant agreement. On the other hand, a trespasser commits a criminal offense by law and can be arrested. Squatters may also get arrested if they do not meet their obligations.
Can I Claim on My Insurance for Damage Caused by Squatters?
Insurance policies vary wildly but the general idea is that they provide compensation when your house is damaged. Speaking from experience my insurance did cover me for damage caused by squatters in a rental I have in Denver, CO. The property was empty because I was renovating it to sell. Several squatters enjoyed the house and it's amenities over a weekend. Interestingly, it created an entirely different problem of whether I could sell my house with an open insurance claim.
Which States Have Squatters' Rights?
Every state has laws and regulations put in place for squatters. They will, however, differ in the period of occupation in different jurisdictions. The average period is living in the property for 7- 30 years. In Alabama, the law allows the squatter to possess property after 10 years if they pay their taxes. This is slightly different in Alaska, where the squatter can get the deed after living for 7 years and paying taxes for 10 years.
In Arizona, squatters must pay property taxes for 3 or more years and acquire a deed to live on that property. They must pay property taxes for 5 years when the property is part of a city lot. To gain possession of the property in California, the squatter must pay its taxes for 5 years. You must have lived on the property for 18 years or paid the tax for 7 years in Colorado. Comprehensive details can be seen at the following link relating to Colorado squatter's rights.
Below is a list of squatter periods allowed in different jurisdictions:
- Florida (7 years)
- Indiana (10 years)
- Iowa (10 years)
- Georgia (20 years)
- Hawaii (20 years)
- Idaho (20 years)
- Illinois (20 years)
- Louisiana (30 years)
- Maine (20 years)
- New York (10 years)
- Oklahoma (15 years)
- Oregon (10 years)
- Vermont (15 years)
- Virginia (15 years
When Do Squatters' Rights Apply?
The other question that comes to mind is how and when these rights apply. How exactly does a squatter legally possess property without buying it? Some valid reasons include:
- Living on the property for the time stipulated amount of time according to your state laws.
- The owner has not tried to evict them.
- They have entirely lived on the property.
- It is not a commercial property.
How Do I Protect Property from Squatters?
As a property owner, there are steps to take when evicting a squatter and protecting the property. First, you may need to alert the authorities in case of a squatting incidence. You will also be required by the law to offer an eviction notice to the squatter before eviction.
You may also consult organizations that deal with these incidences for professional help on how to handle them or assistance in complex situations like fraud and improvements on the property. Due to the provisions of the law, eviction can be tedious and frustrating to the property owner. Here are verified ways to prevent squatting:
- Adding disclaimers against trespassers and indicating that it's not abandoned property.
- Securing a perimeter wall and reinforcing the locks and fences of the property.
- Consider alarm and effective surveillance throughout the property.
- Make sure the doors and windows are secure and well reinforced. This will also eliminate the chances of trespassers breaking into the property.
- Finally, make regular visits and scout for any break-ins or damage to property.
How to Legally Evict a Squatter
Suppose you found someone living on your property without consent. How do you evict them according to the law? Here is a guide on the steps to take in the event of squatting:
1. Seek police intervention
The police will come in to deescalate the situation. The owner will provide the necessary information and solid evidence relevant to the case in case of a lawsuit. Calling the police will also prevent any form of violence or forceful eviction which may be legally implicated by law.
2. Offer an eviction notice
This is the statutory period offered to the squatters requiring them to vacate the premises. Make sure to seek expert advice and help from your attorney due to legal implications.
In conclusion, evicting squatters can be a very tedious process. You are advised to lease out your property if you no longer use it. Alternatively, you can sell your property or make sure to protect it from squatters at all costs.

Cristina Chipurici @ 'How do You Know?' podcast by Andra Zaharia
A few weeks ago, Andra Zaharia interviewed me for "How Do You Know?", her podcast about how to make better decisions.
This was probably one of the hardest conversations I ever had, since I've known Andra for 10+ years and she's one of my closest friends. We talk every day, we're taking vacations together, and we can get lost in conversations for hours and never get bored, so it was hard to switch to a "this is going to be public" mindset when we recorded this.
Andra is one of the best content marketers in the world, although she'd never say that about herself – she's too modest to even think that. I can't really remember how we first met, but I believe it was thanks to Bobby, as we both worked with him (Bobby's my business partner at The CEO Library, and we co-founded another project back in 2007). Andra's also part of the accountability group I was telling you about, and, of course, she's an extraordinary human being overall. Yesss, we're cheezee! 🙂
Here's what Andra wrote in our interview's introduction:
"Today's conversation features the incredible Cristina Chipurici (aka Pyuric), one of the most resilient, hard-working, and high-performing people I know.
An hour is not nearly enough to tell even a summary of her story. However, I tried to get the most important moments of her evolution and capture the decisions that shaped her trajectory.
Cristina is one of the most impactful people in digital in Romania and well beyond it. Her project, The CEO Library (to which I often linked to), extends her reach in countries across the world as people turn to her book recommendations for life-changing ideas.
From journalism to founding high-quality content projects to music marketing and back, Cristina's path is an example of what it's like to use your principles to guide your decisions."
So, if you want to learn more about my story and how The CEO Library was born, you can listen to the whole episode here:

Many of you are probably unaware how much music influences my daily life. I wake in the morning and before I even rub the goo out of my eyes, I have music setting the tone for the day. Most often, it is so I can generate the motivation to walk the 25 feet into my office and work, sometimes to go out for a walk/run, or to deal with whatever goals I set for the day.
Music has been missing from the blog here for some time. That changes today. On the right sidebar there is a player that will have whatever mp3 files I am listening to at any given time. Sometimes they will change daily, sometimes weekly, sometimes not for months. If I find anything interesting though, I will post about it and embed a special player in the post. Right now I am knee deep into Eels and so, everything in the player right now is from that band. If you don't know who the Eels are, perhaps you should check them out.
If you have a word press blog, and would like to set up the music player on your site, send me an email and I will walk you through it.
Hope you are all having fun with whatever it is you are doing.

The music of Gaze is Ghost has fascinated me for years. Her songs have such emotive qualities that set them apart from most contemporaries, frequently compelling and otherworldly. The music takes the form from the classically trained composer Laura McGarigle, alongside more contemporary influences. Those songs have been gifted on a handful of rare occasions in the last year, but a double single was released earlier this year with the promise of more. Where the fragile piano of 'Wild Geese' floats, at one with a natural world, 'Feather and Bone' uses the talents of the trio for a fuller sound, bolstered by percussion and bursts of bass, with McGarrigle is now joined by Casey Miller and Keith Mannion (Slow Place Like Home).
We asked Laura to pick out a few of the songs that have inspired her music, a selection as diverse and distinct as her own music.
Julia Holter – Whether
Julia Holter is such a fascinating singer/songwriter- she seamlessly fuses art music forms and instrumentation with weird and wonderful off-kilter electronic soundscapes I particularly love the relentless drive of 'Whether' – the pounding bass drum is punctuated with skittery brass and the result is beautiful chaos.
Cosmo Sheldrake- Birthday Suit
I blame Cosmo Sheldrake for contributing to a recent woodwind obsession. Who thought bassoons could be so catchy? This is such a clever and fun song – the only criticism I can level to it is that it is so short (I am always left wanting more, but maybe that's the point).
FKA Twigs – home with you
I always found FKA Twigs' music interesting, but Magdalene is the first album that captured my heart as well as my head. I find the production very inspiring-it effortlessly flips from a more organic sound (voice, piano and woodwind) to something darker, creating a very rich musical landscape.
Meursault – Klopfgeist
This is one of my all-time favourite songs- I just adore everything about it. The piano chords, the lyrics, his voice. It is just such a gut punch of a song emotionally and breaks my heart every listen.
Laura Cannell – Untethered
I heard Laura Cannell perform at a concert in Glasgow a number of years ago and was completely blown away. 'Untethered' is from her album The Sky Unturned, an album on which the songs (largely improvised) were captured in a single take. This energy comes across in the music, which is raw, otherworldly and beautiful.
Caleb Burhans – Nunc dimittis
I love how bleak, beautiful and big this track is. I particularly love the diving glissandos in the voices. I would love to write a choral work someday (with pipe organ).
Laura Mvula – Sing to the Moon
I love Laura Mvula's 2014 album Sing to the Moon which is a live recording with the Metropole Orchestra of her 2012 album of the same title. The lush harmonies and rich orchestral arrangements are quite sublime.
Nautilus – Anna Meredith
There is such a glorious energy to this track- that tuba line is wonderful (did I mention I love brass?). I do not think there is anything that Anna Meredith has done that I don't find interesting. Nautilus I first heard live (complete with tuba) on the Tiny Desk Concerts. I would love to see her in concert.
Johann Johannason – The Cause of Labour is the Hope of the World
I find the late Johann Johannason's music incredibly inspiring. 'The Cause of Labour is the Hope of the World' is the first piece I heard of his. It is for brass band and was written for the film 'The Miners' Hymns'- an elegy to mining life in Durham. It is such a powerful piece, both defiant and celebratory yet shot through with poignancy and loss.
Niamh Regan – How About That Coffee?
I heard this song only recently and my goodness, that voice! It stopped me in my tracks when I first heard it. There is such a sense of intimacy and authenticity in her music – I really admire these qualities as I tend to compose the music before the lyrics and struggle to enter into the personal. The production is also stunning.

Average lexicographic efficiency for data envelopment analysis
Cross evaluation measures the efficiency of each DMU based on both its self-evaluation and the peer evaluations of all other DMUs. One problem of cross evaluation is that the cross efficacy scores may be not unique because of the non-uniqueness of the optimal weights of the conventional DEA model used. We propose a new approach for measuring the efficiencies of DMUs based on their lexicographical evaluations. It does not require a common set of weights for all DMUs but can provide a unique efficiency score for each DMU. In the approach, the efficiencies of the DMUs are lexicographically evaluated for each of their possible orders, subject to the constraints that the efficiencies of all DMUs already evaluated cannot be changed. The average lexicographic efficiency of each DMU is then obtained by averaging its lexicographic efficiencies. This efficiency has some desirable properties. Since all DMUs have an equal right to claim a position in the lexicographic evaluation, it is fair in some sense, as the Shapley value for payoff allocation in cooperative games. A procedure for efficiently computing the lexicographic efficiency is proposed. Numerical results on two instances demonstrate the vitality of our approach and the efficiency of its computation procedure.

Pike County residents got a visitor from the north this weekend. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources is alerting residents in Barry of a black bear traveling through the region. He was helped across Interstate 72 outside of Barry on Sunday night by Conservation Police and IDNR staff. IDNR has been watching the bear travel through the state since it crossed from Wisconsin back on June 10th.
IDNR is asking the public to please leave the bear alone, as it is likely searching for a mate and for food. IDNR warns people to stay off of private property if they are trying to get a picture, and to not crowd the bear to stay safe. IDNR expects the bear to cross back north to Wisconsin when fall weather begins.

Companies in the industry of car manufacturing are very curious about producing fuel efficient car for riders on one side and environment-friendly on the other. It looks like a dream but not now, engineers from Germany make it possible to get highest miles while consuming fewer gallons of fuel. You can get 300 miles per gallon from a very cool and thriller car Volkswagen XL1. Here we are going to discuss its features in details. The construction technique that is used in Volkswagen XL1 is unique. Due to the use of hybrid drive train, it's become lighter weight and very efficient fuel consumption car. Producers have an opinion that its dramatic fuel efficiency is due to new production techniques that are used for its manufacturing, fabulous aerodynamic drawing, and its light weight.
Left Hand Drive
Volkswagen XL1's Fuel consumption is 314 miles per gallon. Its mean that if you are traveling straight from London to Edinburgh, you will only pay for just 1 gallon of fuel and this amazing.
Limited numbers were produced
Co2 emissions are just 24g per kilometer that also makes it very environment-friendly.
Initial price is £92, 4902
Two seats space
Scissor doors
Its measurements are 4 meters long, 1.2 meters tall like Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder and 1.7-meter width same as VW Polo
Hybrid in nature (electric and diesel)
Interior Design Look
Function of Fuel Efficient Car Volkswagen XL1
Volkswagen XL1 is a combination of I20 kilowatts electric motor and two cylinder engine having the power of 800cc.
Lightweight has just 796 kilogram due to the replacement of steel parts like chassis and other with very light weight carbon fiber.
The car can travel up to 36 kilometers without using the power of diesel engine just on electric power.
12 seconds are sufficient for getting the speed of 0 to 60 miles per hour.
A very innovation change that could be seen in its exterior design is that side mirrors are replaced with two side cameras on both sides. They reflect the exterior image on displays screen in front of the driver. It is for overcoming the resistance of the air that produced while touching both mirrors. By introducing this car, Germany sets a new benchmark in the car production industry and the field of fuel efficiency. Its teardrop shapes make possible to get more speed, but it has electronically limited with a speed of 99 miles per hour. Although company's previous cars like Golf Cabriolet and Porsche Boxster are also giving good fuel consumption, Volkswagen XL1 is great in this regard. So the company can rightly claim that this is the most fuel-efficient car in the world.
Features and Engine
So, now it is proved with necessary evidence that Volkswagen-XL1 is the most fuel-efficient car in the world.

Valve has taken the gaming community by storm with the announcement of the new portable gaming console- Steam Deck. Steam Deck is a mini-computer version of a gaming console that will feature all of steam's extended library games. The best thing about Steam Deck is the portability of the play unit. An easy-to-carry handheld gaming computer is a dream come true. Steam has carefully partnered with the best hardware and software designers to produce a masterpiece of gaming. Soon the days will come when gamers can sip a latte on the way to college and play their favorite game simultaneously. Naturally, with the introduction of Steam Deck, various mobile gaming communities might feel attracted as the concept is fairly the same. The reason is, while gamers are looking for portable gaming solutions, they also want high-definition gameplay and captivating graphics.
What is Steam Deck?
Steam Deck is a handheld mini-computer acting as a gaming console for every game in the Steam library. This is a portable gaming solution bearing a close resemblance to a PSP or Nintendo Switch. But the game mechanics and UI completely resembles a computer. Steam has carefully incorporated all the AAA games into the gaming console. According to Steam, the device is powerful enough to run even the heaviest of games. Earlier in May 2021, rumors were heard about a portable gaming console that Valve was working on. Valve CEO Gabe Newell also testified to the news of developing games for consoles. Finally, on July 15, Valve revealed the all-new Steam Deck. The portable gaming unit was up for pre-orders from the next day itself.
According to Gabe Newell, Valve wanted to focus mainly on the performance of the new portable gaming unit. Steam Deck promises powerful performance with strong hardware and software support. Valve has also adopted an aggressive strategy regarding the sale and pricing of Steam Deck. When asked about the 'slightly high' price of Steam Deck, Newell said that it was a painful decision for them. But the decision to keep the price a bit high was necessary to meet the expectation of all the gamers. Valve has promised to deliver the best PC gaming experience in a handheld console. The Steam Deck promises to deliver games at 30+ FPS with high resolution. The device will also have an option to limit the FPS fluctuation to better gameplay and performance as required. Steam Deck will feature SteamOS 3.0 as the operating system.
Specs and configuration
The Steam Deck runs on quad-core Zen2 with 8 threads at a viable frequency of 2,4-3.5 GHz. Valve has partnered with AMD to manufacture a powerful APU for the unit. The Steam Deck will feature a 7-inch display with a 1280×800 LCD. The gaming unit will boast a 720p clarity with added resolution boosters. Valve has also incorporated Bluetooth and WiFi in the Steam Deck for the ease of gaming. Dimension-wise, the Steam Deck is 298 by 117 by 49 millimeters. Therefore, the Steam Deck is approximately 669 grams in mass. The controls of the console will be fairly easy, as promised by Valve. To play any game, one will have to click on the power button. Thereafter, if the Steam Deck is connected to the internet, a steam login pop-up will appear. Upon logging in to steam, the user can play any game of their choice. Valve has promised the users a powerful gaming experience on the Steam Deck.
The website of Steam Deck boasts a video of Stars Wars Jedi Fallen Order gameplay on the Steam Deck. In the video, the gamer appears to play the game effortlessly using various joysticks and controls. Steam Deck uses hardware that is designed to put "real games in real hands." Steam promises a Powerful, Comfortable, and Versatile hardware experience with the new Steam Deck. The portable hand-held gaming computer can run any AAA games without any issues. Valve has also provided a full-fidelity control setup for the Steam Deck, allowing gamers to play for hours at a stretch. The gaming experience will go up several notches with the new system configurations.
Valve has partnered with AMD to device a custom-made Accelerated Processing Unit for the Steam Deck. The custom-made APU is designed after the Zen2 and RDNA 2 architectures of AMD. The CPU of Steam Deck runs on a quad-core eight-thread unit to boost the performance. As for the GPU, it runs on eight compute units of 1.6 TFLOPS. The time frequencies of both the CPU and the GPU varies as needed. CPU uses a time-frequency variance of 2.4- 3.5 GHz. For the GPU, the range is 1.0- 1.6GHz. In addition, the valve has managed to include Ryzen 3000 desktop computer-like performance in the CPU. On the other hand, the GPU performance can be compared to Radeon RX 6000 series. Steam Deck also boasts a powerful memory of 16 GB of RAM of the LPDDR5 version. Valve has included the RAM in a quad-channel configuration.
Gamepad controls
Valve has included some of the best gamepad controls for smooth gameplay in the new Steam Deck. The Gamepad promises absolute comfort to the gamers. Steam Deck bears both a trackpad and Thumbsticks for easy movement and navigation. A gamer can choose to use either of them or both during a game. The shape of the device is sculpted in a way to facilitate long gaming sessions. This means a player won't have hand-aches or stress during long gameplay hours. Valve has promised to deliver the best portable gaming thumbsticks in the market with the new Steam Deck. The thumbsticks will carry built-in capacitive touch sensors to provide a range of accuracy and perfection. There are also analog triggers that can be used to avail a whole range of gaming precision. For example, they can be quite handy while playing a racing game. There are four user-assigned grip buttons at the back of the device. This will allow the gamer to have a firm grip over the control pad allowing the thumb to move freely.
The trackpads are a new inclusion for a hand-held gaming unit. Many PC games are quite hard to play on portable consoles. Thus Valve has decided to provide the Steam Deck with smooth trackpads to operate as touch control. Difficult FPS game movements can be easily accomplished by mastering the trackpad control.
Gyro control
Steam Deck comes with a Gyro sensor that enables the user to take the help of the Gyro controls. The Gyro sensors can provide great help during in-game movement precisions. While playing a competitive FPS game, using the trackpad and thumbsticks alone may not be enough. Thus the option to move the device and move the in-game avatar is quite handy. The gyro settings can provide absolute control over PC games in a hand-held unit with the control pad.

Users can access the Steam home page directly by the Steam Deck and browse it the way they like. Steam OS is a modified arch-Linux that will run on the Steam Deck. Proton's added layer protection enables most Windows games to be played on a Linux environment. Steam Deck is conjured to deliver a performance of the eighth-generation console. Valve has tested all the games on the Steam library, and each one has checked out nicely. Most games are running on a minimum frame rate of 30 FPS.
The Steam Deck will host a desktop version of Steam. Valve has added several options to navigate through the Steam client on the Deck. The feature comes quite handy during browsing games, chatting with friends, or simply connecting to the client.

Community Standards
Community Standards
The mission of the Office of Community Standards is to articulate to students the standards of behavior expected within the University community. Standards of student conduct ensure respect for all members of the community and maintenance of a collaborative and learning-centered environment as described in the University's mission statement. Rowan University has instituted a Student Code of Conduct to set forth the standards and expectations that are consistent with its purpose as an educational institution. The Student Code of Conduct has been developed to guarantee procedural fairness to students when there has been an alleged failure to abide by Rowan University's policies and regulations. While it is the goal of the student disciplinary process to educate students as to the purpose and importance of abiding by the Student Code of Conduct, the University will also issue sanctions as are appropriate and necessary to ensure continued and/or future adherence to this Code, and to protect the university community from disruptive behavior.
Student Learning Outcomes
- During involvement in the discipline process, students will learn about the behavioral expectations set forth in the Student Code of Conduct.
- Students will be able to articulate ways to positively contribute to the Rowan community and mission.
- Students will demonstrate insight into how their behavior affects all aspects of their life.
- Students will be able to articulate how their actions impacted the Rowan community.
- Students will be able to identify areas for improved decision-making skills.
- Students will be aware of their rights within the disciplinary process.
- Students will indicate that the sanction(s) they received were appropriate.
- Students will perceive the appeal process to be fair.
Key Performance Indicators
- Reduce the average number of days taken to process a disciplinary case by 5% per year.
Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drugs Statement (ATOD)
The Division of Student Affairs is committed to promoting a safe and healthy learning environment for Rowan students.
It is expected that students will make legal and responsible lifestyle choices concerning the use of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs. Responsible lifestyle choices can be facilitated by engaging in positive activities that build community and enhance learning.

Our friends at the Columbus Regional Airport Authority (CRAA) Police Department are off to a great start with Books & Badges. Sergeant Jonathan Todhunter sent us these photos of readings he and Officer Jeff Ford did recently at the John Glenn Columbus International Airport. He said parents were so happy with the program that many asked for pictures of the officers with their children after the readings.
As we've found when officers read to kids in schools, Sgt Todhunter said the children at the airport were thrilled to have their books autographed by the officers who read to them. We love the idea of them heading off to their destinations with those newly autographed books in their bags and happy memories of officers reading to them at CMH.

The album digs deep into Raines' family life and her upbringing in West Virginia. Featuring previous and current members of her live band, as well as cameos from other bluegrass greats such as Stuart Duncan and Tim O'Brien, the album is a gorgeous look into the perspective, history, and musical influences of one of Nashville's most beloved musicians, Missy Raines.

The latest 'vaccine' excitement circulating the defunct and corrupt media is surrounding a new study out of the UK's PHE(Public Health England).
Headlines are claiming 'One Dose Cuts Infection Rate in Half', this rather definitive statement comes from a study of almost 1 million households who were monitored for infection rates.
One thing you will notice is how the media fail to link the study they are referring too. Why? Because you are far too stupid to read a study, that's why those good old boys at the media are there, they can do the hard work for you.
I joke, in fact it's because most are far too smart and a quick glance at the study reveals a few important points that the reports fail to mention, points I should add that drastically change the certainty of the headline.
From the study[1]:
In households where the index case was not vaccinated before testing positive, there were 96,898 secondary cases out of 960,765 household contacts (10.1%).
There were 196 secondary cases in 3,424 contacts (5.72%) where the index case received the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine 21 days or more before testing positive, and 371 secondary cases in 5,939 contacts (6.25%) where the index case received the BNT162b2 vaccine 21 days or more before testing positive. – PHE[1]
So the comparison is, as you can see, is clearly unbalanced. We have 96,898 showing positive infection transmission out of the 960,765 unvaccinated contacts, while the unvaccinated showed infection transmission in 196 of the 3,424 vaccinated contacts.
I do not mean to preach to the choir, but one of the most important things we learn about data analysis is the significance, or insignificance of numbers. The larger the study group, the greater the accuracy.
For example, if we had 10 vaccinated people in a study group and one happens to die within 24 hours of receiving the vaccine, then technically the conclusion from the study is 10% of will die within 24 hours of vaccination. Obviously not true.
The accuracy of this PHE study regarding the infection rates of the vaccinated is totally disproportionate to the accuracy of the vaccinated group. There is huge room for error, simply due to the significantly smaller study group.
So when the mainstream media and public health officials make such claims as "One shot cuts infection rates in half", know now that they are lying, no such evidence exists and unless they are exceptionally incompetent and ignorant to the data then they are doing so knowingly with malicious intent.
Let me know what you think in the comments below.
