UPDATE--ReFocus: A Series of Film/American Studies Anthologies
In 2015, the University of Edinburgh Press launched a multivolume series of scholarly, refereed anthologies entitled ReFocus. Edited by Robert Singer (CUNY Graduate Center, Liberal Studies) and Gary D. Rhodes (Queens University, Belfast), each book focuses on a critically overlooked American film director who worked in the studio system, independent cinema, experimental filmmaking, or documentary tradition. The volumes to be published this year focus on Preston Sturges, Amy Heckerling, Delmer Daves, Ida Lupino, and Budd Boetticher.
ReFocus features a series of contemporary methodological and theoretical approaches to the interdisciplinary analyses and interpretations of the work of these American directors, from the once-famous to the ignored, in direct relationship to American culture --its myths, values, and historical precepts. This series will consider any director who created a historical space, either in or out of the studio system, beginning with the origins of American cinema and continuing up to the present. This research may include work in other media such as television.
We are now soliciting on-line proposals by potential editors/authors for new ReFocus editions. We are especially interested in proposals for the following filmmakers:
• Julie Dash
• Joe Sarno
• Nora Ephron
• Susan Seidelman
• Archie Mayo
• Sydney Pollack
• F. Gary Gray
• John Singleton
• Irvin Kershner
• Stuart Rosenberg
• Franklin Schaffner
• Sydney Lumet
• William Wyler
• Spencer Williams
• Mervyn LeRoy
• Rouben Mamoulian
• Robert Florey
• Woody Van Dyke
• Joseph Mankiewicz
• Trinh T. Minh-ha
• Antoine Fuqua
• Jerry Lewis
• Suggest a director you deem worthy of consideration
If you are interested in editing/authoring such a volume, please attach a curriculum vitae to your abstract/proposal and email to both:

Receptor binding properties of four-helix-bundle growth factors deduced from electrostatic analysis (1994)
Hormones of the hematopoietin class mediate signal transduction by binding to specific transmembrane receptors. Structural data show that the human growth hormone (hGH) forms a complex with a homodimeric receptor and that hGH is a member of a class of hematopoietins possessing an antiparallel 4-a-helix bundle fold. Mutagenesis experiments suggest that electrostatic interactions may have an important influence on hormonereceptor recognition. In order to examine the specificity of hormone-receptor complexation, an analysis was made of the electrostatic potentials of hGH, interleukin-2 (IL-2), interleukin-4 (IL-4), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and the hGH and IL-4 receptors. The binding surfaces of hGH and its receptor, and of IL-4 and its receptor, show complementary electrostatic potentials. The potentials of the hGH and its receptor display approximately 2-fold rotational symmetry because the receptor subunits are identical. In contrast, the potentials of GM-CSF and IL-2 Iack such symmetry, consistent with their known high affinity for hetero-oligomeric receptors. Analysis of the electrostatic potentials supports a recently proposed hetero-oligomeric model for a high-affinity IL-4 receptor and suggests a possible new receptor binding mode for G-CSF; it also provides valuable information for guiding structural and mutagenesis studies of signal-transducing proteins and their receptors.
IgG monoclonal antibodies that inhibit osteoinductivity of human bone matrix-derived proteins (hBMP/NCP) (1994)
Monoclonal hBMP/NCP (human bone morphogenetic protein anrl associaterl noncollagenous proteins) antiborlies of the lgG class were prorlucerl. In vitro, 12 of 19 hBMP/NCP antiborlies showerl functional inhibition of hBMP/ NCP-induced chondroneogenesis in a neonatal muscle tissue assay. Inducing factors were characterized by their inhibiting antibodies with immunoblotting. Several peptide factors seem to be involved in the cascade of inducerl chondro- and osteogenesis.
Interleukin 7 as interleukin 9 drives phytohemagglutinin-activated T cells through several cell cycles; no synergism between interleukin 7, interleukin 9 and interleukin 4 (1994)
The effects of the interlenkins IL-7 and IL-9 on cell cycle progression were investigated by conventional [3H]thymidine incorporation and by the bivariate BrdU/Hoechst technique. 8oth IL· 7 and IL-9 drive phytohemagglutinin-activated T cells through more than one cell cycle, but IL-7 wasmorepotent on cell cycle progression than IL-9. Neither synergistic nor inhibitory effects were seen between various combinations of the lymphokines IL-7, IL-9 and IL-4 compared to each lymphokine alone. When T cells are activated with phytohemagglutinin for 3 days, all or most IL-4 responsive cells respond to IL-7 as weil, whereas only a part of IL-7 responders are IL-4 responders. In contrast, when T cells are activated with phytohemagglutinin for 7 days, the quantitative data of the cell cycle distribution soggest that the population of IL-7 responders is at least an overlapping, if not a real subset of the population of the IL-4 responders.
Aspects of receptor binding and signalling of interleukin-4 investigated by site-directed mutagenesis and NMR spectroscopy (1994)
Cytokines are hormones that carry information from ceJI to ceH. This information is read from their surface upon binding to transmembrane receptors and by the subsequent initiation of receptor oligomerization. An inftuence on this process through mutagenesis on the hormone surface is highly desirab)e for medical reasons. However, an understanding of hormone-receptor interactions requires insight into the structural changes introduced by the mutations. In this line structural studies on human TL-4 and the medically important IL-4 antagonists YI24D and Y124G are presented. The site a.round YI24 is an important epitope responsible for the a.bility of 11-4 t.o ca.use a signal in the target cells. It is shown that the local main-chain structure around residue 124 in the variants remains unchanged. A strategy is presented here which allows the study of these types of proteins and their variants by NMR which does not require carbon Iabeiied sa.mples.
Neutralizing monoclonal antibodies define two different functional sites in human interleukin-4 (1994)
Human interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a small four-helix-bundle protein which is essential for organizing defense reactions against macroparasites, in particular helminths. Human IL-4 also appears to exert a pathophysiological role during various IgE-mediated allergic diseases. Seven different monoclonal antibodies neutralizing the activity of human IL-4 were studied in order to identify functionally important epitopes. A collection of 41 purified IL-4 variants was used to analyse how defined amino acid replacements affect binding affinity for each individual mAb. Specific amino acid positions could be assigned to four different epitopes. mAbs recognizing epitopes on helix A and/or C interfered with IL-4 receptor binding and thus inhibited IL-4 function. However, other mAbs also inhibiting IL-4 function recognized an epitope on helix D of IL-4 and did not inhibit IL-4 binding to the receptor protein. One mAb, recognizing N-terminal and C-terminal residues, partially competed for binding to the receptor. The results of these mAb epitope analyses confirm and extend previous data on the functional consequences of the amino acid replacements which showed that amino acid residues in helices A and C of IL-4 provide a binding site for the cloned IL-4 receptor and that a signalling site in helix D interacts with a further receptor protein.
Design of human interleukin-4 antagonists inhibiting interleukin-4-dependent and interleukin-13-dependent responses in T-cells and B-cells with high efficiency (1994)
Human interleukin-4 possesses two distinct sites for receptor activation. A signaHing site, comprising residues near the C-terminus on helix D, determines the efficacy of interleukin-4 signal transduction without affecting the binding to the interleukin-4 receptor a subunit. A complete antagonist and a series of low-efficacy agonist variants of human interleukin-4 could be generated by introducing combinations of two or three negatively charged aspartic acid residues in this site at positions 121, 124, and 125. One of the double variants, designated [R121D,Y124D]interleukin-4, with replacements of böth Arg121 and Tyr124 by aspartic acid residues was completely inactive in all analysed cellular responses. The loss of efficacy in [R121D,Y124D]interleukin-4 is estimated to be larger than 2000-fold. Variant [R121D,Y124D]interleukin-4 was also a perfect antagonist for inhibition of interleukin-13-dependent responses in B-cells and the TF-1 cellline with a K\(_i\) value of approximately 100 pM. In addition, inhibition of both interleukin-4-induced and interleuk.in-13- induced responses could be obtained by monoclonal antibody X2/45 raised against interleukin-4Rm the extracellular domain of the interleuk.in-4 receptor a subunit. These results indicate that efficient interleukin-4 antagonists can be designed on the basis of a sequential two-step activation model. In addition, the experiments indicate the functional participation of the interleukin-4 receptor a subunit in the interleukin-13 receptor system.

He Who Kills the Dragon: Backstroem 2
Leif G. W. Persson
Ingår i 4 pocket för 3
Hos dig inom 5-9 arbetsdagar
Fri frakt för medlemmar vid köp för minst 149:-
In this second installment of Persson's trilogy of police procedurals featuring the "small, fat and primitive" Evert Backstrom, the grand master's most appallingly repulsive (and funniest) character is finally given his fifteen minutes of fame by way of his patented combination of laziness, luck, and an unbelievable sense of timing. A seemingly ordinary murder puzzles Backstrom, who is struggling with strict orders from his doctor to lead a healthier life. His gut feeling proves him right: within days, his team has another murder linked to the first on their hands, and reports of alleged ties to a Securicor heist gone out of control, killing two. The nation needs a hero, and the newly appointed head of the Vasterort police force Anna Holt needs somebody to kill the dragon for her. Who better to heed to the task than Evert Backstrom: self-sufficient, ostentatious, devoid of moral, Hawaii shirt-clad, and, latterly, armed?

After our trip to Füssen in Southern Germany, we headed to Nürnberg a city still in Bavaria, however a little further north. The GPS system initial told us the journey would take about 3 hours, however due to road works, which I might add seemed to have no point what so ever, it took us about 5.
In Nürnberg we were staying with Britty's cousin Birgit, and her boyfriend Dirk. They live very close the centre of Nürnberg, and have a really nice unit which made the stay really really comfortable. Birgit's owns her own business as a travel agent mainly organising trips for German tourists to Australia, so her tour guiding skills were exceptional when it came to giving us a guided tour of Nürnberg.
Nürnberg is a city rich in history, and is particular famous being the home of Nazi Party Rallies during the Nazi's reign between 1933 and 1945. It is also very famous for almost been completed destroyed during the war, and after the war was the home of the trails of Nazi Party Members. Nürnberg is also home of a really detailed and exceptionally well priced museum about the Nazi Party which I would class as a must if visiting the city. Britty and myself spent almost 3 hours there, and if given time I think we could have spent another 3 hours.
The old town in Nürnberg is also very beautiful, and was made all the more exciting during our trip because of the Nürnberg Christmas Markets. The market takes up quite a large portion of the city, and is jam packed full of tourists. Other than that it was pretty similar to all the other markets I saw during the Christmas period.
I of course had the camera ready at all times and snapped heaps of photos. Here are the best. You can see the rest here.
Britty and myself had a great time in Nürnberg. After our trip here we went on to Halle which is toward the middle of Germany to visit Britty's great Aunt. I will post the photos soon!

Can be manufactured only by Beirut and Bebe, who is a Godeater Rat and can digest sparks. Divine Sparks, no matter if Demigod, god, Highgod or sovereign, are extremely hard and impossible to scratch, let alone melt and shape them.
Godspark weapons are weapons that are created from Divine sparks. They can only be made by Beirut, as divine sparks are impossible to forge and only Beirut is capable of extracting their essence through digesting them. Bebe can digest them, but he is unable to extract or refine their essence. They are very expensive and are very tough, capable of clashing with even Sovereign Artifacts. Their toughness is on par with Sovereign Artifacts, but otherwise they lose out in effectiveness. Thus, they are considered one level above Highgod Artifacts but one level below Sovereign Artifacts.

Parents Have Teeth to Look After Too
Parent responsibilities
When it comes to our health, we often neglect to give proper attention in caring for our oral health. As parents, it is our responsibility to monitor the oral health status of our children. We should teach them how to brush their teeth, how to avoid eating sweets constantly, and how to control oral habits like thumb sucking at night. We must bring them to their dentist's regularly for restorations, fluoride treatments, and oral prophylaxis. We should make sure that they live a life free of infection and pain that may hinder their ability to eat well, speak well, and play well. However, we must remember that it is not only the children who can experience tooth decay. Even parents can suffer tooth aches and other oral health problems if we fail to take care of our oral health.
Importance of a parent's dental health
As we age, we can experience a lot of oral health problems that are more severe than that of our children's. Gum diseases such as gingivitis, and the more destructive periodontitis, usually occur first as a result of poor oral hygiene. In this instance, we experience bleeding upon brushing, moving of teeth, and swelling of gums. Peridontitis was even suggested to be one of the causes of developing coronary heart disease, diabetic complications, pregnancy complications and respiratory infections.
Xerostomia, or drying of the mouth, is also common as we age and it usually occurs due to some of the medications we take. Not having enough saliva in the mouth predisposes us to develop caries and other mouth infections which can make it difficult for us to eat and speak properly. Aside from xerostomia, we are also more prone to developing oral cancers which are usually detected at their latter stages already.
Find a level ground
Knowing more about oral health can help us look after the health of ourselves and our loved ones. We can now understand better the importance of allotting time to ourselves for doing the necessary things that will help us achieve a healthy life. How do you think we can take care of our children if we are not even fit and healthy enough to take care of ourselves?
Jem is a freelance writer concerned with peoples' oral hygiene, hoping to prevent the onset of oral health issues such as tooth decay and gum diseases. You can also find & follow Jem on twitter @writerjem to learn more.

I spent nearly a week in Dexter, Iowa, visiting my old friend Stosh and his family. Well nowadays everyone seems to call him 'Stan'. One day when I was there the town had a parade! I showed up and took pictures..
Yes that's right. They are hanging a flag from a CRANE.
Sure there are lots of people waiting, but where is the parade?
This is not *that* small of a town...is it?
There are lots of good looking people here, who are good to look at. And take pictures of...they seem to be wondering who is this weirdo taking pictures though. Hey this is all new to me! I have never been to a small town Iowa parade before!
AHA! Now we're cooking! There is one of Stan's step daughters, Jude, playing the trumpet!
...and his *other* step daughter, Michelle, carrying a flag. Is that the town flag of Dexter, Iowa? I never thought to ask...
Nice Truck! haha no that is not really the reason I took this picture:
SHRINERS! THEY'RE EVERYWHERE! and always driving around in those tiny little cars...
HA! here's a sneaked picture of both of Stan's daughters and his wife Amanda! Apparently I never got a shot of his son Jacob...
hmmm, who's THAT?
hey wait a minute..there's HORSES here.
HORSES! with purdy riders...
This is called the Roundhouse, probably because it's round. It's a historic community building. It wasn't open at the moment, so I didn't go inside.
I *believe* that's a storm cellar next to the Dexter Roundhouse.
This guy was not in the parade, but he should have been. Well, at least I didn't see him there. We passed "ANDY" driving toward Des Moines on the way to the airport.
And why were we going to the airport? Why, to
of course! Too see pictures from the flight,

There is a quote that says: 'the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result'. It's often attributed to Albert Einstein, but it perfectly describes the state of the oil sector in Nigeria. Governments come and go, oil licences are approved, and the heavy lifting is done by international oil companies headquartered in capital cities in far-away cities led by executives who've been to Nigeria a handful of times, if at all.
That's the way it's always been done. For all the talk of prosperity and economic empowerment, and no matter how many new committees or departments each new government creates to encourage the true potential of the sector, the oil business isn't changing and isn't flourishing. They do the same thing over and over and expect a different result. It's not insanity, it's negligence.
But within the stagnation, one company is at last doing things differently and the approach is already yielding results: Aiteo. I first read about Aiteo when the company shook off the old Sigmund Communecci brand and burst into the big leagues by fighting off some of the biggest names in global oil products to snap up what is thought to be Nigeria's largest oil block: OML 29. OML 29 was one of these massively bounteous blocks that plenty had tried to make a success of and plenty had failed. A story of great potential being squandered by mismanagement - not such a bad metaphor for the industry as a whole.
But enter Aiteo. Leading a small consortium of indigenous oil companies, Aiteo snapped up OML 29 and boy have they showed the big players how it's done. In its first year managing output from the block, Aiteo tripled production levels to almost 100,000 barrels per day (bdp). Shell, even at its absolute prime working the block, had just about managed 30,000. What's more, Aiteo have kept those levels consistent rather than pulling the old trick of celebrating spikes on the graph to hide a modest output across the board. But as always, behind the statistics lies something more profound. A cultural shift, as much as a corporate one.
Aiteo has been relentless in the consistency with which it has championed the use independent, local operators to support its operations. Benedict Peters, Chairman of Aiteo Group, has made a point of publicly endorsing the 2010 Local Content Act and been one of the most vociferous evangelists for acting upon its recommendations. Writing for this website, OilVoice, earlier in the year Benedict Peters said that Nigeria needs a "renewed confidence in local content players" and has led by example by showing just exactly how a local firm can outflank the IOCs.
But outside of the nuts and bolts of running the operations of Aiteo, the business has demonstrated real leadership in the structure, ambitions and relationships it maintains very publicly. Plenty of indigenous oil companies are very happy to stay in their area, not cause any trouble, not explore opportunities beyond its own borders. And they wonder why the sector isn't getting bigger or better?! Having an international vision for a company in today's globalised world is absolutely essential. And if Shell or Chevron can bring the Netherlands or the United States to Nigeria, why shouldn't Aiteo take Nigeria to the world? With due credit to the leadership of Benedict Peters, Aiteo took its first steps to a more international presence with the appointment of a former investment banker and former diplomat to the role of Group Advisor on Business and Capital Development. Tasked exclusively with 'reinforcing the Group's growth and diversification targets in Nigeria and across Africa as a whole', according to a company press release from May this year, the appointment signals a decisive leap forward in building the stature of the business.
So too at home Aiteo is providing a positive model for others to follow by addressing the public role that Nigerian oil companies play to support civil and social groups inside the country. Certainly a surprising move at the time, but no one today can criticise Aiteo's decision to sponsor both the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) and the coaching staff for its national soccer team, the Super Eagles. If the latest results against the mighty Cameroon are anything to go by (4-0 and 1-1, go on Eagles!), Aiteo's sponsorship is bringing stability, funding and expertise to a team that has historically been constrained by management disruption.
It's definitely an exciting time to be working in the oil market in Nigeria. It remains to be seen how the year will end out for the market, but if there are going to be more and more Aiteos then the reputation and stability of our biggest national asset is in safe hands for 2018 and the future.

The Crab Nebula (also known as M1, NGC 1952 or Taurus A). This is quite an improvement on the last attempt at imaging M1 about two years ago. This time it was possible to bring out some of the filaments that make this object so interesting - this despite using a much shorter focal length making the object appear significantly smaller. The image is cropped rather radically to show more details in the nebula so the stars appear bigger than I would prefer, but on the original they look fine.

Earlier this year, Holly was downtown in Fountain Square when she found herself face-to-face to the love of her life down on one knee. William professed his love for her, asked her to spend the rest of his life with her, and then whisked her away for a night at the Cincinnati Ballet. They've been counting down the days ever since to their fairytale wedding day, and these two lovebirds had the prettiest day.
Holly and William were married just as October hit and the leaves started to change, so their fall wedding was everything they hoped it would be. The couple exchanged sweet letters, had a tearful first look where William kept saying "Wow! I can't believe I get to marry you today!", and a smile didn't leave Holly's face all day. Thank you so much, Holly and William, for the honor of being a part of your big day! I'm so happy for you two!! XO

The Morning Risk Report: Midsize Firms Take Cybersecurity 'Sweet Spot'
Readers can subscribe to The Morning Risk Report here: http://on.wsj.com/MorningRiskReportSignup. Follow us on Twitter at @WSJRisk.
Good morning. Big companies have more sophisticated systems and more cash to throw at keeping hackers out, but tests of firms' vulnerability indicate that doesn't make them safer than their smaller counterparts.
A report by the cyber-risk advisory firm Coalfire Systems Inc., drawing on data from more than 300 attempts by the company to breach the defenses of 148 client firms from January through July 2017, found high-risk weaknesses at 49% of companies with annual revenue of more than $1 billion. The figure for companies with $100 million to $1 billion of revenue was 34%. Thirty-eight percent of the smallest companies, bringing in less than $100 million a year, had high-risk vulnerabilities.
Coalfire had believed that given their financial might, and the fact that they have been hammered by hackers for years, big companies would have gained ground on security, Tom McAndrew, the company's chief executive officer, told Risk & Compliance Journal. "But they really haven't made a whole lot of progress in the last several years, and they might even be getting worse," he said.
Large companies appear to be focusing on high-profile areas of cybersecurity, such as the use of artificial intelligence, while they should instead be focusing on basic cybersecurity, he said. "The majority of what we see out there are very fixable problems," Mr. McAndrew said. "If a company focused on one or two big changes, it could probably get rid of 90% of the risk that we see out there, and yet they continue to struggle with the same issues year after year."
Medium-size companies are in a "sweet spot" for cybersecurity, the Coalfire report said, because they are less dizzyingly complex than the larger firms, yet have the resources to take a more sophisticated approach than the smallest companies.
Midsize companies have their own challenges, though. The report indicated that as a group, they are the most susceptible to phishing attacks, four times easier to breach than big firms. Everyone may know all their colleagues at a small company, and a big firm may have sophisticated systems in place to prevent social engineering, but medium-size businesses often have neither protection, the report said.
"We didn't realize how susceptible they were, and four times more susceptible is quite a bit," Mr. McAndrew said.
ZTE has named a slate of new top executives, including a new chief executive, as the Chinese telecom firm presses ahead with its U.S.-mandated leadership purge. ZTE has already chosen a new board, seeking to meet U.S. conditions for lifting a ban on the telecommunications-equipment firm purchasing American-made parts, the WSJ reports.
European Union lawmakers rejected new copyright rules Thursday, instead opting for more debate. The contested rules are aimed at granting new rights to content owners to strengthen their position when negotiating with big tech firms, such as Alphabet 's Google, the WSJ reports.
Authorities in Singapore proposed to fine Grab and Uber Technologies, saying the ride-hailing firms went ahead with the sale of Uber's Southeast Asian business to Grab in March despite being aware of potential competition issues. A regulator said it may force the firms to unwind the deal, Reuters reports.
Months after the start of a corruption crackdown, Saudi authorities are still holding a senior prince and several dozen businessmen and former officials in detention and recently have made new arrests, government officials said, the WSJ reports. Spokesmen for the Saudi government didn't respond to requests for comment.
Chinese conglomerate HNA Group Co. said its chairman and co-founder Wang Jian died Tuesday after an accident during a business trip in France. Mr. Wang was one of the conglomerate's top decision makers, the WSJ reports.
Barnes & Noble fired Chief Executive Demos Parneros, citing company policy violations. Barnes & Noble didn't disclose what rules Mr. Parneros may have violated, but said the decision wasn't tied to any disagreement over financial reporting or any potential fraud, the WSJ reports. Mr. Parneros didn't respond to requests for comment.
The international system for resolving trade disputes will come under increasing threat if economies continue to ramp up the pace at which they impose restrictions on imports, the World Trade Organization warned. The WTO said G-20 economies introduced twice as many restrictions in the six months through mid-May as in the previous period, the WSJ reports.
U.S. cheese makers are suffering as China and Mexico raise tariffs. BelGioioso Cheese Inc., in Wisconsin, has seen sales to Mexico drop since that country levied tariffs of up to 15% in June on most U.S. cheese. Thursday, Mexico was slated to raise its levy to as much as 25%, while China on Friday is implementing tariffs on $34 billion of U.S. goods, including cheese, the WSJ reports.
The Trump administration has said its plan for tariffs on about $50 billion of Chinese goods is aimed at thwarting cyberespionage and subsidies that could put the U.S. at a disadvantage. But trade groups, particularly those that represent tech companies such as Cree , argue the move will backfire, with U.S. businesses ending up collateral damage, the WSJ reports.
A Chinese court temporarily stopped America's largest memory-chip maker, Micron Technology , from selling a range of products in China, two rival manufacturers said, escalating a battle the companies are waging over allegations of trade-secrets theft and patent infringement, the WSJ reports.
Purchasers stepped up orders for big rigs in June, when buying typically slows, pushing backlogs at factories to the highest levels in nearly two decades, the WSJ reports. Truck operators are racing to meet unrelenting shipping demand in a strong U.S. economy.
Hudson's Bay Co. has agreed to sell half of its European business in a deal that would bring in more than $1 billion in cash. The transaction, if completed, would unite Germany's two biggest department-store chains—Galeria Kaufhof GmbH and Karstadt Warenhaus —in one company, the WSJ reports.

Keeping the Heating and AC in Tip Top Shape for Your Hattiesburg HomePublished on: February 23, 2012
There are several ways to keep HVAC systems running in top shape. Homeowners in Hattiesburg, MS, should follow step by step instructions to prevent any accidents from happening. Only NATE certified technicians should perform air conditioning and heater repair and installation. However, Hattiesburg, MS residents can do their share in keeping their HVAC systems in good shape. After air conditioning and heater repair and installation is done, homeowners can start monitoring for reoccurring issues. If something is found to be wrong, they should contact a service provider in Hattiesburg immediately. They will be able to perform air conditioning and heater repair and installation correctly.
Hattiesburg residents should know how to keep their heating and cooling systems running well. This is essential to provide comfort at home. If an air conditioner begins to malfunction, serious problems can occur. This can cause a lot of discomfort for occupants. Heating systems that are not taken care of can also break down. This is a big problem, especially during winter. Homeowners can expect to be very cold if this situation is not remedied.
Regular maintenance can help avoid heating and cooling system issues. Filters should be replaced every one to six months. This will ensure that air quality is not compromised. With quality air filters, everybody can breathe clean air at home. It is also wise to have condenser coils and evaporators cleaned once a year. This will remove all mold and keep it from growing inside the system. Mold can grow quickly and leaving coils untreated will make mold problems worse. Air ducts should also be inspected every two years. If the ducts show any signs of contaminants, they should be replaced. Air conditioning and heater repair and installation can always help Hattiesburg residents breathe clean air and be comfortable at home.

On considering Amendment No 2 [Scriven–1]— to the Disability Inclusion Bill 2018:
The committee divided on the new clause:
Ayes 10
Noes 10
Majority 0
|Bourke, E.S.
|Franks, T.A.
|Hanson, J.E.
|Hunter, I.K.
|Maher, K.J.

|Lensink, J.M.A. (teller)
|Lucas, R.I.
|Pangallo, F.
|Ridgway, D.W.
|Stephens, T.J.
|Wade, S.G.
The CHAIR: There are 10 ayes and there are 10 noes, so in accordance with convention I cast to the noes.
New clause thus negatived.
The Hon. T.A. FRANKS: Point of order: on which convention did you just base your vote, Mr Chair?
The CHAIR: I took advice from the Clerk that, by tradition, and therefore by convention, the Chair of the Committee or President casts for the noes in the case of a tied vote and does not seek to make the majority. That is my understanding; I did take advice from the Clerk, to assure the Hon. Ms Franks.
The Hon. T.A. FRANKS: Second point of order for clarification, Mr Chair: is that based on a presumption that the Chair will then always cast their vote with the noes? Or will the Chair cast their vote with the status quo?
The CHAIR: Effectively with the status quo, and given that this was the introduction of a new amendment, a new clause, that is why I acted in that way. Thank you, the Hon. Ms Franks, for allowing me to clarify.
Clauses 13 to 15 passed.See full session on Hansard

How much?
Michelle Keegan has the youthful glow and clear complexion that many people dream of – but as it turns out, it comes with a hefty price tag.
The Our Girl actress, 31, spends a whopping £9,000 a year on regular trips to a top Harley Street clinic to keep her face looking young.
MORE: Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan look ADORABLE in rare red carpet appearance at the Global Awards 2019
According to her doctor, Michelle has a number of non-invasive surgical treatments once a month to make sure her skin is always camera ready.
'When Michelle visited the clinic, she has a combination of three treatments. She has amazing skin anyway, but she always maintains it in the right way,' Dr Esho said.
So what is Michelle's pricey choice of treatments?
Well, Dr Esho revealed she gets a HydraFacial, which costs £150, a pHformula Vitamin C Skin Resurfacing treatment, which will set you back £250 and Dermapen micro needling, which is £350 a pop.
And because Dr Esho recommends the treatments are carried out every month, that's £9k a year!
'She has a great complexion anyway but this treatment is designed to repair the surface layers of the skin and to leave it looking brighter, tighter, toned and with pores appearing more refined,' he added to new! magazine.
Michelle's expensive treatments certainly explain why her skin always looks flawless, as she previously admitted it has nothing to do with her going under the surgeon's knife.
Michelle confessed she's 'too scared' to have plastic surgery, although she does find the speculation she has flattering.
'I like the fact people point out they think I've had a nose job,' she told the Sunday Express S magazine last year.
'They think I've had new cheeks, a new chin – but I haven't and I don't think I ever would, if I'm being honest. I'm scared it would go wrong!'

The purpose of this quantitative study is to measure the attitudes of experienced teachers' willingness to change teaching strategies to achieve better results when comparing veteran teachers and new teachers' achievement test scores at middle school XYZ.
Explain how the data will be prepared for analysis.
I will collect my data from teacher using surveys and questionnaires and I will preassign a numeric score or value to each response. Once I collect the data I will use summed scores to compute the overall attitudes of new and experienced teachers. Once I score the data I will use a computer program to analyze the data such as Microsoft excel where graphs and tables will be prepared for analysis.
Explain how you will analyze the data.
I will analyze my data by going back to my research questions and I will be looking for trends in the data to the attitudes of teachers. I will compare groups of the independent variables or just new teachers or just veteran teachers to answer questions that require inferential statistics in order to draw a conclusion. I will be utilizing measures of central tendency such as the mean, median and mode.
Explain how you will report the results.
I will report my results in the form of tables, figures in the form of bar charts, and line graphs and third I report the results utilizing detail explanations about the statistical results. These results will provide clarification to written information

President Trump Taps Judge Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court: In this extended interview from Employment Law This Week® (Episode 124: Week of July 16, 2018), Jim Flynn, Member of the Firm, looks at what Judge Brett Kavanaugh's record on several labor and employment cases might indicate if his nomination to the Supreme Court of the United States is confirmed.

Ninth Circuit Affirms Conviction for Unauthorized Password Sharing: In this extended interview from Employment Law This Week (Episode 34: Week of July 18, 2016), James P. Flynn, Member of the Firm, discusses the Ninth Circuit's ruling that unapproved use of a former co-worker's password can be criminal. An ex-recruiting firm employee used a current worker's credentials to gain unauthorized access to a company database. The Ninth Circuit held that this act violated the "without authorization" prong of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, noting that permission for legal access must be given by a computer system's owner. This decision could have wide-reaching implications in an area of law that has become increasingly criminalized over the past few years.

With the kids back to school, the spontaneity of summer is replaced with tight fall schedules. With so much on everyone's plates on the weekends, from music lessons to sports practice, family time takes some planning ahead. The can't-miss family destinations on the East End this fall are Dan's Best of the Best Family Attraction winners, as voted on by Dan's Papers readers.
It wouldn't be fall in the Hamptons without pumpkin picking at Hank's Pumpkintown (240 Montauk Highway, Water Mill; 631-726-4667, hankspumpkintown.com).

Trade deal, Fed Beige Book, bank earnings — What to know in markets Wednesday
The signing of the phase one trade deal, the Federal Reserve's release of its Beige Book and another round of bank earnings will keep investors busy Wednesday.
Vice Premier Liu He and a Chinese delegation is in Washington this week to sign the deal. For more than a year, the ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China weighed heavily on both investor and business sentiment. Though stocks soared to record highs, it was a bumpy ride along the way as the two powers went head to head.
While investors cheered the phase one deal reached by the two nations, many are skeptical about whether a potential "phase two" will come quickly or easily. Allianz Chief Economic Adviser Mohamed El-Erian warned that a such a phase-two deal will likely be challenging.
"Phase two is a lot more complicated than phase one. Phase one for me is a ceasefire. It's a truce. It doesn't deal with the really complex issues," El-Erian said Thursday on Yahoo Finance's On The Move. "I'm not a buyer that phase one automatically means a solid foundation, a solid stepping stone to phase two. I think phase two is going to be really hard to achieve."
Beige Book
Additionally on Wednesday, the Federal Reserve will be releasing its Beige Book. "The Beige Book prepared for the January FOMC meeting will likely indicate a modest pace of economic expansion and inflation. We will look for additional anecdotal evidence from businesses of headwinds faced by the industrial sector, particularly given rising evidence of the industrial slowdown bottoming," Nomura economist Lewis Alexander wrote in a note to clients Jan. 10.
"Since the last Beige Book, while there have been some positive developments around U.S.-China trade, some surveys indicated that businesses continued to express concerns over trade policy uncertainty and input cost pressures from tariffs that are currently in place. It will be important to assess if Beige Book respondents have materially revised up their near-term business outlook since the announcement. In addition, we will pay attention to any anecdotal information on effects from Boeing's production halt and the normalization of GM's production," Alexander added.
The most notable earnings announcements scheduled for Wednesday include Bank of America (BAC), BlackRock (BLK), Goldman Sachs (GS), PNC (PNC) and UnitedHealth (UNH) before the market open and Alcoa (AA) after the market close.

"Why Streeterville as opposed to, oh, say, just about anywhere else?"
Our Tax Dollars at Work
Re "Apparently Money Does Grow on Trees: There's No Other Way the Park District Can Justify the $22 Million It's Spending on Its Streeterville Offices" by Ben Joravsky, April 10
And how much property could be purchased for $22 million in less affluent areas for the creation of neighborhood parks? The Park District is always crying poor when it comes to the neighborhoods but continues wasteful spending on administration and boondoggles like this.
Aviva Patt
Have you ever been in the offices? Beautiful!! Real wood, artwork everywhere; it is a fantastic custom build-out. I wish I worked there, except I think I would feel too guilty.
Hi Jenn, if you enjoy opulent interior decorating, don't miss CTA HQ.
Given the remedial math skills of these "brain trusts" they must have graduated from CPS schools.... Oh, that's right, the graduation rate sucks so maybe they went to... the Richie Daley School of "Stick It to the Taxpayers." One more in a long line of rip-offs, where the F*** is Fitzgerald?
Frank Morgan
This is the same park district that spent millions to put iron fences around the parks. I guess when you're spending someone else's money then the sky is the limit. Daley, Stroger, and the rest of the hacks are brilliant at rewarding their friends.
Men of Their Times
Re "Harold and Barack" by Michael Miner, Hot Type, April 10
Harold Washington was Black. [An] African-American who lived the American Black experience.
Barack Obama is African-American but lived the white American experience.
Barack Obama did not suffer racism but has been gifted because of white guilt, while Harold Washington was brutally oppressed because of race.
The ancestors of Harold Washington were slaves. The ancestors of Barack Obama were slaveholders.
Barack Obama is an intelligent and articulate man. But he does not speak truth to power. He is the Black man that whites feel comfortable with.
Barack Obama has been silent on torture under Jon Burge.
Barack Obama has been silent on corruption in the Daley and Blagojevich administrations.
Barack Obama has been silent on police torture in Chicago and racism that still happens today in his area.
Harold Washington had courage, Black unity, and higher turnout, which did not happen under Barack, and spoke truth to power.
How do YOU know what Barack "suffered"? I really wish people would stop playing the "is he black enough?" While your points about his support of machine politics and Burge are valid, they are overshadowed by the other crap you were kicking.
I hope Michael Miner's piece on "Harold and Barack" leads more readers to Salim Muwakkil's wonderful new book [Harold! Photographs From the Harold Washington Years], including its chapter on how "The Movement Finds the Man." It holds lessons from an earlier era that can help us contemplate today's challenges.
Harold Washington told me that he himself did not "subscribe to the great man theory." He thought that history's principal actors—the heroes who get the credit—were always the beneficiaries of what today we might call a perfect storm of opportunities.
But he did not credit "the Movement" for putting him into office—or anyway not beyond the decent respect of any politician for his or her political base. Specifically, he chuckled at the thought that he had auditioned for the role and had been anointed by a committee of elders (or, according to other claims, radical young Turks).
On the contrary, he told me that he had responded to calls for him to run—again (he had been a mayoral candidate in the 1977 primary)—by challenging community leaders to meet high goals for fund-raising and black voter registration, channeling their enthusiasms for his political risk taking ("Let's you and him fight," is how he put it) into focused work on his behalf. Like any leader who knows how to credit others for his successes, he never discouraged anyone from thinking that they were the indispensable element in his election—but the movement didn't make the man, the man surfed on the movement, and it doesn't help us in meeting today's challenges to perpetuate a myth or draw the wrong conclusions from history.
My long contemplation of the meaning of Harold Washington—in my teaching, in my sporadic journalism, and in my two nonfiction books plus a still unpublished novel about Council Wars—convinces me that it's the Moment, not the Movement, that makes the difference between a frustrated activist and a successful leader.
The Moment is always a patchwork of long-term trends and sudden opportunities, a matter of finding the perfect perspective from which to assemble seemingly disparate fragments into a coherent pattern—and then articulating a dynamic narrative supported and illustrated by that pattern of evidence, in which you—the "hero"—are the principal actor. This is not something that happens by itself. The "great man" is almost always an active player, not a humble Samuel who trembles at the call.
I agree with Salim's take on the similarities and differences between Harold and Barack. The Moment in 1982-1983 was not the Moment of 2007-2008. I have no doubt, however, that a leader of Barack's skills would have been able to put it all together as Harold did—and vice versa. I only wish such a leader had been around to pick up the torch in 1987, when we lost The Man and had only The Movement to turn to.

Speak Up Not Out of Line
Re "The Right to Rant" by Michael Miner, Hot Type, April 3
Any person, whether an extraordinary or average citizen, has the right to defend their reputation in court. Defamation law does not exist only to protect the meek, but also to protect those who have something to lose. My reputation is personally worth a lot to me. If someone were to attack me, I would respond. It is that simple. If you don't like the structure this developer is building, you have the right to speak up. You do not have the right, however, to attack a man's reputation in the public sphere, merely because you disagree with his business model. The article mentions that the Okons' "motion to dismiss" was denied. Therefore, one would assume that the developer must have a case.
Phaedrus: the denial of the motion to dismiss means the judge is going to let the developer make his case, not that he has one.

It's a creative time in the food world – and not just in epicurean circles. With a focus on addressing injustices to our environment, to people and to animals, several of this year's Hive companies are serving up alternative meals that are fresh, nutritious and unconventional.
One Simple Solution Addresses Three Big Problems
On the Menu: Excess but wholesome food that would otherwise be wasted by growers, manufacturers and retailers. This wasted food is used to cook up freshly prepared "grab-n-go" meals that are sold along with fresh produce and other grocery items at far lower-than-typical prices at Daily Table, an innovative nonprofit retail store. Daily Table's mission is to fight hunger and obesity in America by providing truly affordable nutrition to the food insecure.
"I am #BreakingThrough traditional mindsets about nonprofits, hunger relief and food recovery while engendering dignity and building a community's capacity for health," says Doug Rauch, Daily Table's founder. Explaining that the organization is "using one massive problem (wasted food) to solve another massive social issue (hunger/obesity)," Doug – formerly a president of Trader Joe's – collaborated with "world class medical education centers and nutritionists to adopt nutritional guidelines that will ensure that every product helps our customers feel and be their best. This great tasting, nutritious food is offered in a friendly retail format ensuring that the entire process engenders dignity and a sense of agency."
Asked how Daily Table evolved from an idea to the real-live supermarket that opened its doors in Dorchester, MA, on July 4, Doug responded that there were many "learnings." To name a few: "When I learned that the issue of dignity was the number one reason a person didn't apply for SNAP or use Feeding America's services; or when I discovered that hunger in America is a shortage of nutrients, not calories; or when I wrestled with how to create a nonprofit that could generate funding (revenue) through delivery of its mission instead of for the delivery of the mission." The word that brings it all together, he notes, is empathy. "It all flows from genuine care and empathy. It would be an empty shell without these."
A Quest to Eliminate the Need for Animal Farming
Impossible Foods (@PatrickOBrown)
The Main Course: A delicious, nutritious, environmentally friendly alternative to meat and dairy that comes directly from plants – but tastes better than the best burger an avowed carnivore has eaten. Next year, Impossible Foods will start selling its "Impossible Burger," the first product in a line of foods that look, smell and taste like – while also delivering the pleasurable sensory experience of – animal-derived foods (meat, cheese and milk). But amazingly, these products are are created entirely from plants.
"I am #BreakingThrough technical and cultural barriers to a sustainable, affordable and secure global food system," says Patrick Brown, a world renowned geneticist, Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, and Professor of Biochemistry at Stanford University. Founder of Lyrical Foods and maker of Kite Hill artisanal nut milk-based cheeses, Pat's latest venture was triggered by a realization that, even as the demand for meat and dairy products continues to rise, animal farming is "absurdly destructive and completely unsustainable." He started Impossible Foods and raised $75 million to "reinvent the entire system of transforming plants into meat and milk."
Only a few of The Impossible Foods scientists have worked professionally with food in the past; however, they have figured out how to extract materials from plants that can convincingly replicate the feel, the flavors and the satisfying texture of foods that people really want to eat. The result is better for animals, of course, but it's also good for those of us who will be able to enjoy a great burger without the attendant guilt that comes from consuming high-fat foods.
Breaking Through the Way We Think About Food
Bill of Fare: Insects. They are a commonly overlooked and sustainable source of protein that, in many parts of the world, are considered a delectable delicacy. Aspire Food Group is working to advance responsible insect farming and consumption by developing culturally relevant business strategies and potential markets for these foods. They are also, simultaneously, educating rural farmers on the best practices of insect farming and helping them break into formal economies where a market for these foods already exists.
Aspire is "breaking through" in many and varied ways, shares Shobhita Soor, a founding member and the firm's Chief Marketing Officer. "We are #BreakingThrough the way we think about food and protein sources … the way we formalize an informal food economy … and the way we adapt traditional food practices on a global scale," she tells us.
Shobhita and her partners found their inspiration as MBA students participating in the Hult Prize competition in 2013. Charged to develop a solution to address food insecurity, a member of her team "spoke to a physician who mentioned that he recently saw a patient who consumes insects in her native country, Columbia. Once we started looking into entomophagy there were several 'aha' moments, namely the understanding that many insects are highly nutritious and resource-efficient and that there is a real market gap in insect eating." The realization "that insect-eating is a strong traditional practice for over 2 billion people in the world, but that they remain inaccessible in terms of cost and supply," was when "we knew we were on to something."
What's most disruptive about Aspire, says Shobhita, "is that we are tapping into an extremely under-utilized resource that is familiar to 2 billion people in the world, yet virtually invisible to the rest. We are revolutionizing the way the majority of the world thinks about protein by working to make a traditional superfood more available and accessible through the improvement of its production, preparation and consumption methods."
Bonus: You'll have the opportunity to hear more about these innovative companies in the Food Fix session at TEDMED2015, where each of the three leaders will share more about their inspirations and hopes for feeding the world.

Home : 2006 : Nov : 10
My friend made a fabulous gift for her student teacher...and we all wanted one, too! She painted a terra cotta flower pot on the outside in a pale blue but she left the rim natural. Then she painted grass on the bottom third and added 19 stems and leaves. When this was dry she had each child (18 of them) make two thumbprints...one on a stem and one any place else. The color of the paint depended on their predrawn suggestions for the "garden". For example, one little girl made a brown thumbprint on a stem and a red thumbprint on the grass. When everyone added their thumbprint she let them add the details. The little girl with the brown center turned that flower into a daisy and her red print was a ladybug crawling in the grass. My friend had a super thin black Sharpie and she added their names in teeny tiny print. She also contributed with her thumbprint...she made a caterpillar with some of the other children who couldn't think of a bug to add.
When all the details were added...and it looked gorgeous...she wrote in calligraphy on the unpainted rim..."Thumbody at _______ School loves you very much!" You could do any seasonal picture and use their thumbs as the starting point for the details. Other sayings could be:
"Thank you for brightening our day!" and have all little sunshine faces.
"You made our garden of learning grow!"
"You're one in a million!" and do snowflakes all over.
"We're thankful we know you!" and make little turkey bodies out of the thumbs and the children add the feather and head details.
Another thing I have done is to tape the children talking about her/him while they drew pictures of a favorite lesson or moment with the student teacher. Too funny!
I also had a colleague take a class picture of us holding pieces of paper that spelled out a message...We'll miss you, Mr. So & So and added it to a really cool frame along with a gift card to a teaching supply store.
I also found a picture of a really great bird in flight that became the cover of a class book. The title was, "We gave you your wings, now fly!" Each child drew a bird doing a task and wrote what the new teacher should do when she has her own class. At the end of the book we had a picture of ourselves wearing bird headbands and "sitting" in a nest made of bulleting board paper crumpled around our feet.

Vulnerable children's charity's 'urgent' call for help to survive as demand soars
PUBLISHED: 09:40 25 September 2018 | UPDATED: 09:40 25 September 2018
Archant Norfolk 2017
A Norfolk charity which fights for families of children with complex needs has said it urgently needs help to survive.
Norfolk SEN Network, which was founded in 1987, said on its social media platforms that "we urgently need your help to keep the charity alive".
The charity represents families of children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and helps secure the best educational support to meet their needs.
They often guide parents through the process of applying for more support, and through tribunal hearings when an agreement can't be reached.
On Facebook, they said: "We will have to reduce the support we can offer to children and their families due to a reduction in the fundraising and grants we have received. This is not something we had wished to do but the charities funds have got to a point where this may be the only option to maintain a presence in Norfolk."

The charity, which is based in Thorpe St Andrew, said this year had been their "busiest year for a long time", with the number of tribunals lodged over the period trebling.
They said they had also helped families with transport appeals, governor complaints and exclusion issues.
"This has however put a considerable strain on our finances and we are currently struggling," the post said.
"We receive no statutory funding and have to raise all our own funds. We are a small dedicated team who have put parents first over financial restraints.
"Can you help us by making a donation, however small, to enable us to continue to support vulnerable children?"
