U's win 3-0 at Lincoln but miss out on play-offs

Lincoln City 0 Colchester United 3
Colchester United produced a fantastic display to win at champions Lincoln City this afternoon, but they ultimately missed out on the League Two play-offs.
The U's played out of their skins at Sincil Bank, easing to victory thanks to Brennan Dickenson's opener and a brace from Sammie Szmodics, all in the first half.
And that left John McGreal's men in the play-off zone, sitting in seventh spot, for most of the afternoon until Newport County netted a late equaliser at Morecambe to draw 1-1 and so pip the U's to the final play-off berth.
Dickenson gave the U's the lead in the 21st minute by meeting Sam Saunders' corner with a first-time shot which flew into the bottom far corner of the net. It was an inch-perfect finish from Dickenson.
And Szmodics doubled the U's lead, six minutes later, by powering to the edge of the six-yard box to meet Ryan Jackson's teasing cross with a thunderous header which flew like a bullet past keeper Josh Vickers.
It was Szmodics 14th goal of the season, and his 13th in the league, and he was soon celebrating his 15th goal of the campaign when charging down keeper Vickers' attempted clearance in the 43rd minute.
The ball struck Szmodics and then rolled towards an empty net, with the U's No. 10 having the easy task of helping it over the line.
The U's were on course for the play-offs, therefore, right up to the point where Newport got their equaliser.
The U's showed just one change to the side which beat MK Dons 2-0 in their final home match of the season. Mikael Mandron came in up front, to give more physical presence to the U's line-up, with winger Abo Eisa relegated to the bench.
Lincoln had not won in their previous four matches, but had already clinched both promotion and the League Two title, and U's players gave them a guard of honour as they onto the pitch.
The U's were pumped up, given the importance of the game, but Jackson was over-zealous with his first challenge, which resulted in a booking inside the first 30 seconds.
And Jackson must have been fearing the worst when he committed another foul, on Bruno Andrade, just three minutes later. Referee Trevor Kettle called him over for a stern lecture, but there was no second yellow or ensuing red card.
Mandron squandered a gilt-edged chance to put the U's 1-0 up in the ninth minute. He met Jackson's cross with a shot that keeper Josh Vickers blocked, and then ballooned the rebound over the bar from point blank range.
Mandron had another chance, following a swift break engineered by Courtney Senior. However, Mandron's angled drive was easily gathered by keeper Vickers.
You may also want to watch:
But the U's did take the lead, in the 21st minute, thanks to Dickenson's instinctive finish from Saunders' corner.
Lincoln fancied their chances of levelling, from a 26th minute free-kick, but Neal Eardley's shot from the set piece flew harmlessly over Ethan Ross' bar.
At the other end, the U's went in search of a second goal, with Szmodics having a goalbound shot blocked by defender Michael Bostwick, on the edge of the six-yard box.
But Szmodics was not to be denied, and just seconds later he steamed in to head home Jackson's pinpoint cross, delivered from the right flank.
It was so nearly 3-0 to the visitors in the 37th minute. Szmodics was teed up by a terrific run from Senior, and his shot beat Vickers but cannoned back off the far post and rolled to safety.
Ross had not been required to make a serious save in the first half, although he was relieved to see Matt Rhead's towering header soar over his bar on 39 minutes.
The U's made it 3-0 in the 43rd minute, Szmodics charging down Vickers' attempted clearance and then running through to plant the loose ball into an unguarded net.
Into the second half and Frank Nouble rattled the post with a close-range shot, from an acute angle, in the 50th minute.
Ross inexplicably picked up a Jackson back pass in the 55th minute, gifting a free-kick to Lincoln on the edge of the six-yard box, but the U's managed to block that set piece by all charging off the line.
Mandron and Nouble sliced shots wide, but the U's were content to sit back as the second half wore on, Frankie Kent clearing Andrade's shot off the goal-line in the 80th minute.
LINCOLN: Vickers, Eardley, Bolger, Bostwick, Toffolo, Anderson, O'Hara (sub O'Connor, 59), Pett, Andrade, Rhead (sub McCartan, 53), Akinde (sub Roberts, 69). Unused subs: Gilks, Angol, Chapman, Wilson.
COLCHESTER: Ross, Jackson, Eastman, Kent, Dickenson, Lapslie (sub Chilvers, 90+1), Saunders (sub Stevenson, 86), Senior (sub Eisa, 89), Szmodics, Nouble, Mandron. Unused subs: Vose, Wright, Kensdale, Clampin.

First, know that this is a sticky post for the week and new stuff is going on below. I keep finding new posts are ignored when I have something fastened to the top, but I want this here for a bit.
Starting in August, I'm going to be opening Sundays to authors who want to make a guest post or simply promote their books. All you have to do is make contact, send me the post with links and pictures, and I'll set it up. This is going to be a first come, first serve email type of deal. I figure Sunday is a good day to have one up and leave it at the top. I'll be doing a sticky post for it that will last until the next morning when the Monday post goes up.
So, let me know if you're interested and we'll try to set something up. Email is email@example.com. Enjoy the weekend.
EDIT: I just realized how silly it is to wait until August. The original plan was for this to be a Thursday thing, but I know a few people who do events on those days. To avoid stepping on toes, I switched to Sunday. That means we can start this right away.

A search has resumed for a man who got into difficulty in the River Wear last night.
It's believed the man fell into the water near Finchale Priory, near Durham City, at around 5.15pm and the another went in to try to help.
The second man was rescued by emergency services but the first is still missing.
Police, fire and rescue, the coastguard and the Teesdale and Weardale Search and Mountain Rescue Team joined ambulance paramedics at the scene during the course of the evening.
The search was called off last night at around 9.30pm due to bad light but has resumed this morning.
It is understood that both of those involved are male and in their late teens.
The rescued man was taken to Dryburn Hospital to be checked over.

In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE To Accept a Fascist America! at the Doo Dah Parade in Pasadena, CA
November 25, 2016 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
From a reader:
The Pasadena Doo Dah Parade, November 20. Photos: Special to revcom.us
November 20—The Pasadena Doo Dah Parade is a popular farcical and flamboyant parade held in Pasadena, California, each year. Absurd and unique participants such as the Shopping Cart Drill Team, the Bastard Sons of Lee Marvin, and the Men of Leisure Synchronized Nap Team form contingents, and thousands of people line the streets to watch and have fun.
This year's wild celebration featured a contingent named "In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE To Accept a Fascist America!" We were there to reach the crowd with the "In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE To Accept a Fascist America!" statement, posters, and a huge banner, and to distribute Revolution newspaper, the current issue of which also features "HOW WE CAN WIN—How We Can Really Make Revolution."
As soon as we unfurled the large banner right before the parade started—the main organizer of the Doo Dah Parade insisted we be front and center in the parade. We were a team of four to start, but had stacked up 6,000 statements, 500 posters, 325 Revolution newspapers, and a contribution bucket onto a decorated convertible "hand truck to platform," easily maneuverable by one person (this is important—and something to learn from—as the "convertible hand truck to platform" enabled a small team to be mobile with large amounts of flyers, posters, and newspapers).
In the Name of Humanity,
We REFUSE To Accept a Fascist America
Rise Up... Get Into The Streets...
Unite With People Everywhere
to Build Up Resistance in Every Way You Can
Don't Stop: Don't Conciliate...
Don't Accommodate...Don't Collaborate

There was an overwhelming response to "In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE To Accept a Fascist America!" Right away, two young guys with anti-Trump T-shirts took over holding the banner in the parade. Thousands of people reached for the statement as our contingent rolled through the parade. People young and old also reached for the posters, which were held up by hundreds along the entire length and breadth of the parade. It was truly an extraordinary response—the two banner holders telling us "these people weren't passive... they wanted the materials and they were looking for a way to act."
We distributed 4,500 statements (including many bundles to individuals) and 500 posters, and 165 Revolution newspapers toward the end of the parade. We took up fundraising and raised $145 toward the statements and posters, and $100 for Revolution newspapers. This all took place within the span of about 90 minutes, with the "In the Name of Humanity..." statement reaching not only thousands in the crowd and those participating in contingents and floats, but many more than that through the television and media coverage of the Doo Dah parade.

I know I shouldn't care.
I know.
But I do.
I care.
And that upsets me. Because it was I after all who left him. I left him. I didn't want to be with him anymore. Couldn't be with him anymore.
He wasn't meant for me. I wasn't meant for him. But I care.
He's so different than I am.
He's alive. I'm not. I'm here, but I don't live. I exist. He's here and he's alive. I could always see it in his eyes. That sparkle, that endless smile that I could see when he looked at me. How could I give him anything he needed? How can someone who's dead give anything to his lover who's alive. Who has a heartbeat. A heartbeat that I used to listen to for hours as he slept in my arms.
Seeing his naked chest rise and fall as he silently slipped into his dreams was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. And yet it scared me. Nothing scares me, I've seen it all in my unlife, but his living body did. It scared me because I knew that I could never be everything that he needed. I've known it from the moment I first kissed him. Tasted those sweet lips. I always told myself that I didn't care. I'm evil, remember. But I was lying. Lying to myself. I care.
Dreams and being haunted
He still haunts me in my dreams. I dream about him every night. Dream about us together. Our hours of lovemaking and taking melatonin uk, our hours of talking to each other. I'm torturing myself, but I deserve it. Because I gave him hope. I gave him the idea that I could be someone that I'm not. And I hurt him. Bad. And I shouldn't care. But I do.
I saw him today. It has been six months since I left him. Since I told him that I didn't want to be with him anymore. Told him that it was over. That he should go on without me. He didn't want to. He begged me not to go. But I had to. For him. For me.
I saw him today with someone else. Someone new. He didn't see me, but I saw him. He looked happy. With that person. A girl. A nice looking girl that was holding his hand. And he smiled at her. I felt my heart break when I saw that smile, because once that smile was only given to me. Once I was the one he smiled at like that. But I'm not anymore. Because I left him, hurt him. I know it's better this way. I'm not the one for him. I'm dead, evil and a cold-blooded killer. And I don't want to, but I care.
Fear & afraid
It was my fear, my insecurity that killed what we had. I was afraid. Afraid that I couldn't love him the way he deserves to be loved. Afraid that I would love him the way he deserves to be loved. And that it would hurt me. I was afraid of getting hurt, so I did what I thought was best. Hurt him before he could hurt me. I'm a fool. A bloody idiot. I made a mistake. And it's too late to do anything about it. I lost him.
And it's all my fault.
I pushed him away. I didn't open up to him. Afraid to show my true feelings and get hurt. I've been hurt in the past and somehow my mind won't let that happen again. Even if that means that I have to push away the one good thing that has happened to me in over a century. The one good thing that could make me a man again. Is it really better to stay the soulless demon and hide in my crypt and be sure that no one will hurt me? I'm afraid to take a chance – to care. I wish I didn't, but I care.

It's no coincidence that "Halcyon Digest," the fourth album from Atlanta indie-rock act Deerhunter, was partly produced by Ben Allen, who also had a hand in Animal Collective's 2009 album, "Merriweather Post Pavilion." On its past two efforts, Deerhunter has followed Animal Collective's lead in transitioning from a rootless indie obscurity into a hook-filled songwriting force. Following 2008's enjoyable "Microcastle," "Halcyon Digest" is both Deerhunter's most straightforward and best collection of songs: The melodies here are fully formed but don't sacrifice the band's hazy tones. The song "Revival" shimmies over guitar fuzz and frontman Bradford Cox's elastic vocals, while the "whoa-oh" chorus and extended instrumental breakdown of "Desire Lines" leave the listener wanting more despite its nearly seven-minute running time. Having defined its gauzy sound on previous albums, "Halcyon Digest" Deerhunter finds the group expanding it with knockout results.

The train on the East Rail Line goes north into the New Territories and stops in the last destination, Lo Wu that could be the border where visitors can cross into China mainland, together with the right visa. Now, KCR is merged with the MTR to grow into one program. For people who are used to the old KCR, noted that the former Mong Kok station is currently named "Mong Kok East", and "Kowloon" station is currently named "Hung Hom".
To head to Shenzhen, you can take the MTR and interchange at the "Kowloon Tong\" station. Switch to the "East Rail" line going to Lo Wu or Lok Ma Chau.
Changing from Tsim Sha Tsui MTR Station to Tsim Sha Tsui East Station, one still needs to exit the turnstiles and re-enter.
Pedestrian tunnels join the Tsim Sha Tsui station along with the East Tsim Sha Tsui station, The tunnels also take you to several attractions in Tsim Sha Tsui like the Avenue of Stars to the waterfront.
In the old KCR program was also the West Rail, western region of New Territories and the railroad connection between Kowloon. It is also, part of MTR now.

- Antonio Conte reveals he will forever have affection for Chelsea.
- Conte appears to be waving goodbye to the club and supporters.
- WATCH: Chelsea lift the FA Cup after defeating Man United
Antonio Conte appeared to bid farewell to Chelsea football club after winning the FA Cup at Wembley.
Conte went into today's game without ever having won a domestic trophy. Not only that, but he was going up against Jose Mourinho, a serial winner who has lifted everything that there is to win in England.
He did not appear phased, setting his Chelsea side up to limit Man United's opportunities, and doing so effectively.
Conte's future at Chelsea is in serious doubt, even after winning the FA Cup today. Speculation has been constant over the past weeks and months, and it feels as though it's only a matter time until Conte's recent shortfalls catch up with him.
Following the game, Conte spoke as though he was a man set to depart. The Italian revealed that he will forever hold affection for Chelsea after the time that he spent at Stamford Bridge:
Conte: "After this season I will always love this colour, this club, the fans." He sounds like a man saying goodbye #cfc
— Liam Twomey (@liam_twomey) 19 May 2018
Irrespective of our failures this season, Conte will always be remembered fondly for what we achieved during his debut campaign in SW6. Grazie, Antonio!

Nashville SC's group stage schedule has just be…
Jun. 24, 2020
You love your sports, you love your teams, and you're always looking for more news about them.
Ryan Tannehill's massive offseason extension to stay with the Tennessee Titans sure was a big help to Dak Prescott. The Cowboys' quarterback has been craving a long-term deal to stay with Dallas, but talks had slowed as the coronavirus pandemic set in.
Well, we now know where Dak will be in the fall and as everyone expected, he will not be leaving Jerry World. However, Dallas and their starting QB were unable to reach an agreement over a lengthy contract, so, Prescott will be franchise tagged in 2020.
Franchise tag payments are determined by taking the averages of all the players' contracts playing the position. Therefore, Prescott will receive $31.4 million for one season. As is to be expected, the average for quarterback contracts got a huge boost when Tannehill signed his four-year, $118 million deal to stay in the Music City.
So not only did Ryan help Dak in the franchise tag for this season, he will likely help the former Mississippi State star earn an enormous contract next summer when he is ready to negotiate with the Cowboys again.
Prescott and his agent can go to Jerry Jones and say "look what I have done over the last five years and look at what Ryan Tannehill got for just one really good season."
It's nearly impossible to compare Tannehill and Prescott's style of play or production on the field, but in terms of monetary compensation, the two will and should be very similar.

Treasury decisions on the forthcoming apprenticeship levy have created a financial squeeze and a policy dilemma for the devolved administrations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
In 2017-18, employers in Northern Ireland will pay an extra £76m as a levy of 0.5% on their pay-bill. Only employers with an annual pay-bill of less than £3m will be exempt.
This extra taxation goes to the Treasury and is then re-allocated under the Barnet formula.
However, the consequences are more complicated and far-reaching than creating an apparent revenue question for Stormont (and Holyrood).
The Northern Ireland allocation is not necessarily tied to an increase in local apprenticeship or skills training. The Executive must decide whether, in the local scale of priorities, any extra spending on skills is a priority.
The Executive could decide that extra money in Northern Ireland would simply maintain existing spending on various forms of apprenticeship and any extra revenue (possibly of £24m pa net) might fund other deserving public services.
There are two complicating features. First, Stormont will not receive an extra £76m as first thought. The Treasury will also deduct from Stormont revenue (as a Barnet consequential) £52m because of the withdrawal of other forms of apprenticeship training spending in England. Stormont will have a net financial gain of £24m in year one. That constrains the scope of new local skills training ideas or schemes.
Second, since all larger employers will pay the levy, Stormont departments and services will separately have to find £29m out of their existing spending approvals. To spend an extra £24m, the net levy income, government departments must find £29m to pay the levy. As local ministers have revealed, this is surprisingly a net cost arising from a new form of taxation.
Nevertheless, the expectation is that local ministers will focus on some steps to enhance targeted spending on the level of apprenticeships. The Northern Ireland budget will have to meet the (net) cost of the levy, even when it falls on government departments.
However, local initiatives might be devised to ensure that the extra £24m pa in taxation can be used more flexibly than in England.
There is also a major piece of unfinished business. Local construction companies already pay a levy to the NI Construction Industry Training Board. Can, or should, ministers remove this form of double taxation?

The use of ransomware in cyberattacks by hackers are soaring at an alarming rate!
These hackers cripple our business technology systems from supply chain to payments to manufacturing. They use ransomware and sophisticated malware programmes and will only stop when their ransom demands are met.
According to a Reuters report, businesses reported a 365% increase in such attacks in the second quarter of this year compared to the same quarter last year.
Lloyd's of London insurer Beazley experienced a 37% increase in ransomware incidents in the third quarter over the previous three months. They expect to handle double to triple the number of ransomware incidents in 2019 compared to last year, including another 800 claims by year-end. Small businesses which outsource IT functions to service providers are particularly vulnerable to ransomware attacks. These form the bulk of Beazley's claims.
Chubb Ltd faced as many ransomware claims for the first half of 2019 as they did for the whole of 2018.
Companies face massive costs associated with cyberattacks.
In March 2019, the LockerGoga strain of ransomware paralyzed Norsk Hydro's systems. To date, American International Group Inc has paid out $3.6 million to the Norwegian aluminium maker with more payouts expected. Norsk Hydro reported related losses of $60.1 million to $71.1 million during the first half of 2019 following the cyberattack.
Sompo are fielding a number of claims relating to a ransomware strain known as "Ryuk". This strain of ransomware is suspected to originate from Russia and Eastern Europe. Hackers target companies with annual revenue in excess of $500 million and demand as much as $5 million in bitcoin according to a FBI source.
On average, insurers typically pay $2 million for claims from large companies and between $150,000 to $250,000 from smaller companies. One insurer, FM Global, does not pay for ransoms.
Global insurers collected $7 billion to $8 billion in cyber-insurance premiums in 2018. However, they are grappling with pricing as ransomware attacks become more prevalent. The simple solution is to pay the ransom but it also emboldens hackers. A specialist lawyer dealing with cyberattack claims remarked that it is a hard problem to solve if people keep paying ransoms and the systems keep getting compromised!
This brings us to the question of loss prevention? How do you protect yourselves from cyberattacks?
In our next issue on CYBERSECURITY, we examine the measures which you can take to mitigate your risks.
Stay tuned.

4 Burgundy Ombre Hair Ideas That Are Awakening Our Inner Redheads
Looking to change up your look with colour? Take a look at these ideas to add some burgundy to your hair for the ultimate hair colour aesthetic.
How henna hair colour is back on trend for natural looking hair colour. Our hair.com lowdown on application, product and technique to achieve your best natural Henna colour.
Its official: henna hair dye is having a serious revival. Henna hair dye isn't a new colour technology – but there's a reason it's been used for more than 6000 years. Using henna is the ultimate way to achieve pure colour, in the most natural way. Cleopatra, Nefertiti and ancient Romans all used Henna to colour their hair – and it's just as relevant in salons today.
So why is henna hair dye back on our colour radar? This ancient herbal ingredient is trending again with a new wave of conscious consumers seeking out natural ways to colour their hair. It's why we're seeing a big rise in natural products and botanicals on salon menus.
Consumers are looking for sustainably sourced products and vegan ingredients, but with the added booster of advanced science for seamless hair colour. With beauty trends, comes clever new innovations like Botanéa, L'Oreal Professionnel's first ever 100% natural hair colour. Turns out traditional henna hair dye just got a 2018 makeover… (Cleopatra will be sad she missed the hair boat). This game-changing, all-natural in-salon hair colour features a trio of plant-based ingredients, sustainably sourced from India: Pure Henna, Indigo and Cassia. Combined only using water to create rich, vibrant hair colour.
We spoke to Adam Reed from Percy & Reed and L'Oréal Professionnel's Ambassador about this new exciting launch;
So why herbal hair dye? Many women now feel that natural products are important. Consumers want to know about the origins of their ingredients and exactly what they're putting on their skin and hair.
Henna is undeniably one of the most famous herbal hair dyes, and the henna used for Botanéa comes from the leaves of Lawsonia Inermis, grown in Rajasthan, north-west India. Its leaves release unique warm copper pigments, making it ideal for dark warm blondes and red heads.
The second star plant in Botanéa is Indigo - a game-changer for dark shades - transforming colour from muted dark bases to enriched glossy manes. This powerful natural dye from the indigo plant, Indigofera Tinctoria, contains blue to purple pigments that are ideal for brunette and dark bases.
Thirdly, Cassia is often dubbed 'neutral henna' as it doesn't have any colouring properties – but does act as the perfect natural hair toner and harmoniser. When mixed with Henna and Indigo or both depending on your bespoke hair colour, Cassia works to intensify or softens as well as acting as a natural shine agent.
Traditional henna hair dye colours were often restrictive, but new natural innovations like Botanéa bring more versatility to the colour party. The extensive palette of 100% natural shades range from light blonde through to deep, chocolate brunette.
Think customised colour that works with each individual's natural base – and lasts. Time to get your organic on…
So, how does today's henna hair dye work? Read on for a Botanéa pro masterclass:
Is Henna Hair For Me?
YES - The combination of three herbal powders give customised results. The colourist combines the powder pigments to get the desired shade and mixes them with water, heated to a precise temperature.
Does It Cover Grey?
Yes, for brunettes with over 30% white or grey hair, the colourist layers on the hair colour. It's applied twice in succession to blend white hairs for full coverage, working with the hair's natural highs and lows to create a customised colour.
I Have Used Other Hair Colours, Can I Still Use Henna?
Yes, it can be used on pre-coloured hair or natural hair.
Can I Go Lighter With Natural Hair Colour?
NO, you can't go lighter but you can get a beautiful hair glow that will enhance your natural tones and add gloss.
How Do I Care For Henna Hair?
Experts are recommending natural haircare to maintain their Botanéa hair vibrancy and longevity, using the L'Oréal Professionnel Source Essentielle range. The hero product? Try Radiance Balm, with 99% natural origin ingredients, it moisturises colour treated hair and maximises colour longevity and radiance.
To get colour care as well as volume check out Pureology, packed with colour-fade technology – their Clean Volume range offers volume without the issue of colour fade (a rare gem!).
Where Do I Sign Up?
Botanéa is available nationwide in the UK and Ireland across salons now. So, what are you waiting for?

Phase 2 study shows promise for GBM vaccine
LOS ANGELES, Calif.—ImmunoCellular Therapeutics, Ltd. announced that ICT-107, its dendritic cell- based vaccine, demonstrated a statistically significant increase in progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) in its randomized, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial. GBM is the most common and aggressive primary cancer of the brain. Patients with this disease have few therapeutic options; temozolomide is currently the only FDA-approved systemic chemotherapy for newly diagnosed GBM.
Patrick Wen, M.D., director of the Center for Neuro-Oncology at The Dana Farber Cancer Institute and professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School, and an investigator on this trial said, "The progression-free survival data look promising in this study. To my knowledge, this is the first time a placebo- controlled immunotherapy trial in glioblastoma has demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in a clinically relevant measure, such as progression-free survival. We await additional data to evaluate the effect on overall survival." He notes that Phase 3 trials for both avastin and cellingitude were negative. Wen also points out that immunotherapy studies to date have not been well controlled. "This study was," he stresses, "which makes the PFS findings really meaningful."
John Yu, M.D., founder, chairman and chief scientific officer of ImmunoCellular Therapeutics said, "We are quite pleased to see such a strongly statistically significant result in PFS in this exploratory trial, and believe that in conjunction with the indications of a survival benefit, these results provide a strong medical rationale for continued development of ICT-107 as a potential treatment for glioblastoma. We look forward to discussing this important clinical outcome, and what next steps, including a phase 3 trial, might entail, with the FDA in an end-of-phase-2 meeting."
Andrew Gengos, ImmunoCellular Therapeutics chief executive officer said, "Although we missed the primary OS endpoint, it is encouraging that the OS and PFS results are consistent and that most of the predefined secondary endpoints in the OS subgroups numerically favor ICT-107 over placebo, although none has reached statistical significance. These phase 2 results, in conjunction with the phase 1 results which have indicated the potential for long-term survival, support our view that ICT-107 has a biological and clinically relevant effect in GBM, and potentially may provide a long-term survival benefit. We plan to analyze the results further in the coming weeks and learn more with the goal of informing our next development and regulatory steps. We want to thank the patients who participated in this trial, and our trial site collaborators and dedicated clinical team for their high quality work."
The differences in the overall survival (OS) K-M curves did not reach statistical significance in the intent-to-treat population (the primary endpoint) or the per-protocol population, with p-values and HRs of p=0.58 two-sided, HR=0.87, and p=0.40 two-sided, HR=0.79, respectively. However, there were numerical differences in the median survivals favoring ICT-107 of two months in the intent-to-treat population and three months in the per-protocol population.
The OS analysis includes data on 67 events (patient deaths) out of a possible 124, whereas the PFS analysis includes data from 103 events. ImmunoCellular Therapeutics plans to continue following patients in this trial to collect more mature OS data. In the matured data from the open label, phase 1 trial, the company observed a consistent benefit in both PFS and OS compared with historical controls, and on this basis thinks that it is possible that the primary OS benefit could be clarified as the phase 2 data mature.
In this phase 2 study, ICT-107 was generally safe and well tolerated, with no imbalance of adverse events between the active and placebo groups.
The ICT-107 phase 2 trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 study of the safety and efficacy of ICT-107 in newly diagnosed patients with glioblastoma multiforme following resection and chemoradiation. ICT-107 is an intradermally administered autologous vaccine consisting of the patient's dendritic cells pulsed with six synthetic tumor-associated antigens: AIM-2, MAGE-1, TRP-2, gp100, HER-2, IL-13Rα2. The control consists of the patient's unpulsed dendritic cells.
A comparison of PFS between ICT-107 and placebo showed a statistically significant difference in the Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curves favoring ICT-107 (p=0.014 two-sided, hazard ratio (HR)=0.56) in the intent-to-treat population of all 124 randomized patients. The difference in the median progression-free survival times between ICT-107 and placebo favored ICT-107 and was two months in duration. For the per-protocol population (117 of 124 patients receiving at least four induction vaccinations), the K-M comparison p-value improved in treated patients to 0.0074 two-sided (HR=0.53) and the difference in median progression-free survival times increased to three months in favor of ICT-107.
A total of 124 patients were randomized at 25 clinical trial sites in the U.S. One third of the patients or 43 patients were treated with placebo (their own dendritic cells not exposed to antigen), and the treatment arm included two thirds or 81 patients who received the ICT-107 vaccine. All patients in the trial received standard-of-care temozolamide. The regimen is four induction doses of ICT-107 after chemoradiation, and then maintenance doses until the patient progresses. The primary endpoint of the trial is OS, defined as the time from randomization until date or death or the last date the patient is known to be alive. Secondary endpoints include PFS, defined as the time from randomization until the date of documented progressive disease or death, whichever occurs first, or the last date the patient is known to be alive and progression-free if progression or death is not observed. Other secondary endpoints include the rates of OS and PFS at six months after surgery, then assessed every three months until the end of the study. Safety and immune response are additional secondary endpoints. The phase 2 trial is powered at 80 percent to show a nine-month overall survival benefit assessed after reaching 64 events.
Patients who have not yet progressed will continue in the trial until an appropriate termination point can be determined.

Indonesian, Thai air forces conclude military exercise
Pekanbaru, Riau (ANTARA News) – Indonesian Air Force TNI-AU and Royal Thai Air Force concluded their two-week joint military exercise at Roesmin Nurjadin air base in Pekanbaru, Riau province, Sumatra, on Thursday.
The conclusion of the exercise codenamed "Elang Thainesia" was led by Deputy Air Force Chief of Staff Vice Marshal Hadiyan Sumintaatmadja at a military ceremony in Roesmin Nurjadin air base.
"I believe the exercise would enrich the experience and knowledge of the two countries air forces, especially their pilots, technicians, and other supporting staff," he stated.
He noted that the exercise was mainly aimed at strengthening the relations between the two countries.
However, he also believed that capabilities and professionalism, as well as tactics and combat techniques in air operations would also improved.
RTAF chief Air Chief Marshal Surasak Toongtong admitted that the exercise offered a good opportunity for capability improvement for the two countries air forces, especially in air operations and tactics.
He hoped the friendly relations that have developed so far would be deepened further in the future.
He also hoped that Elang Thainesia exercise would continue to progress and bring a lot of benefits for TNI AU and RTAF.
The joint exercise, which began at the end of July, involved 300 personnel from the two countries.
Six F16 fighter jets, two Hercules from RTAF, a squadron of F16 "Fighting Falcon," and Hawk 100/200 from Air Squadron 16 and 12 of Roesmin Nurjadin airbase were also involved in the exercise.
This was the 18th joint exercise by TNI-AU and RTAF. Pekanbaru hosted the exercise after hosting a similar exercise with Republic of Singapore Air Force.

How does the Henri IV compare to the Saint-Louis?
JubJub787_ posted a topic in French CruisersThe high tier French cruisers I've played so far (Charles Martel, Saint-Louis) have been really fun because of the reload on the guns, the speed, and the range. The Henri looks like a change from the playstyle I've grown accustomed to, is it a radical change or will it be easy to adjust to?

How to Open a Closed Door With a Broken Knob
Most residential doors have doorknobs. A spindle threads through the latch mechanism and attaches to both sides of the knob; turning the knob rotates the spindle and retracts the latch from the strike. You might be able to rotate a broken knob, but if it fails to engage the spindle, it will not open the door. You must access the latch and spindle to open a closed door when the knob is broken.
Exposed Screws
Remove the screws from the escutcheon plate covering the latch mechanism and the hole in the door. These screws hold both sides of the doorknob to the surface of the door and help support the spindle.
Grab the broken knob and pull it from the door. Depending on the manufacturer, the spindle may pull from the latch or slide off the spindle. Use the screwdriver to push the opposite side of the doorknob from the door and latch. Pull the spindle from the center of the latch if applicable.
Thread the screwdriver through the large spindle hole in the latch. Pull the screwdriver away from the jamb to retract the latch and release it from the latch strike. Push open the door as you pull on the screwdriver.
Hidden Screws
Look along the throat of your broken doorknob for a small set screw or a small slit. Use a small hex key to loosen the setscrew, or insert a small flat-head screwdriver into the slit to release the knob. Pull the knob off the spindle.
Remove the screws holding the escutcheon plate to the door if they are exposed, or look along the outer edge of the escutcheon plate for a small slit. Remove the screws from the plate, or insert the small screwdriver into the slit to release the plate from the door. Remove the escutcheon plate to expose the adapter plate supporting the spindle and door latch.
Grasp the exposed spindle with pliers. Try turning the spindle clockwise to retract the latch from the strike and open the door. Remove the screws from the adapter plate and pull the plate from the door if the spindle fails to turn.
Pull the spindle from the latch. Insert the shaft of the screwdriver into the spindle opening. Pull the screwdriver away from the jamb to retract the latch and release it from the latch strike. Push open the door as you pull on the screwdriver.

On campus students
Residents are able to apply to leave the contract through the online accommodation portal. The Accommodation Team do endeavour to find a replacement, but the student is advised that they can post on social media pages to see if a non-residential student (not in another contract off campus) would be interested in taking over their contract. NB We currently have no official platform for this. If a replacement cannot be found, the student is advised that they will be held to their contract.
If a student is withdrawing or intercalating from their course, their halls contract is able to be terminated (and a 28 day notice period applied from the date their keys are signed in at Campus Support Security). A termination form must be completed by the student to activate this process – as part of the withdrawal/intercalation process, they are required to speak to the Accommodation and Hall Fees Team to ensure they have terminated their contract.
Off campus
Students are advised to speak to their landlord in regards to this, as the University are not able to have any influence on a contract being cancelled in the private sector, even if they are withdrawing from their course.
Generally, students are expected to find a replacement to take over their contract, therefore we advise them to post on social media. If the property is registered with the Accommodation Team, the landlord is able to contact Accommodation Team to advertise this vacancy, which then appears on the off campus list.

The Quest for 30mpg in a Ram 1500 EcoDiesel: Final Gear
The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel is capable of an honest 30mpg, if you try for it.
There are certain numbers that seem to evoke more emotion than others. Numbers like 10 percent off, 21 years old, and 30,000 pounds of towing capacity. Since well before I started the '14 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel road test (Sibling Rivalry, March 2014) everybody that heard of it asked me the same questions, "Are you going to try for 30 mpg?" and then after "Did you get 30 mpg?"
At first glance, it's kind of an odd question. Never before has a full-size pickup gotten anywhere near that kind of fuel economy. At any other time this question would have just been laughed off, and the person asking it thought of as crazy. But with the introduction of the 3.0L VM Motori EcoDiesel engine by Ram and Jeep, the time has come that this once crazy notion of a 30-mpg-capable truck has become a reality.
On the first time out with the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, Editor-in-Chief Holman and I set up a drive route that combined a good amount of open highway with some decent elevation change and a touch of city driving. At the end of the 500-mile loop we averaged what we thought was an impressive 28.47mpg. As it turns out, this statistic was spot-on with the hot-off-the-press EPA figures: 20mpg city/28mpg highway/23mpg combined and 19mpg city/27mpg highway/22mpg combined for the 4x4.
One of the biggest complaints about not achieving the magical 30mpg number centered from the fact that I don't believe in the practice of hypermiling. In real life, people don't drive that way, so to gather the most realistic fuel economy possible, neither did I. We could easily have fudged the numbers by finding a totally downhill route and coasting most of the way, or by driving at an unreasonably slow speed, but that would just do our faithful readers a disservice by giving out incorrect, and not repeatable, information.
To try and quiet the critics, I once again got behind the wheel of an EcoDiesel-powered Ram and set out with the intent of breaking the 30mpg barrier. This time, equipped with a similar crew cab four-wheel-drive truck, I conned my wife into going for a late night drive. After traffic died down a little in the Los Angeles area we hit the road, this time setting the cruise control right at the 65 mph speed limit. After completing 188.1 miles round trip we did the math and found that the truck had in fact broken the barrier by logging a hand-calculated average of 31mpg.
So there you have it, the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel is capable of an honest 30mpg, if you try for it. I have also heard from sources that if you hypermile the truck they can crack 35, and now I completely believe it.

Monday, April 14th[fblikesend]
Happy Monday, Front Porchers, and happy birthday to David G. Burnet, the first (albeit interim) president of the Republic of Texas. Speaking of Burnet(t)s, we'd like to thank John for once again MCing Parable with Austin jazz heavyweights Rabbi Neil Blumofe and Michael Mordecai. We'd like to thank all of you who came out, too. Also a big shout-out to Angie Cross for wrapping up our Lenten series Autobiographies of Redemption on Friday; if you didn't hear her, you should check out her book The Butterfly Knight, which is alternately heartbreaking and uplifting. Looking ahead, Unplugged on the Front Porch is next Thursday, starring Jimmie Dale Gilmore and Colin Gilmore. It's not like they need an introduction, but holy cow are they talented.
On a more sober note, our Executive Director/fearless leader Rev. Dr. Steve Kinney's father is in ill health, so Steve will be in Houston for the next couple of days. If you could keep the Kinneys in your thoughts and/or prayers, we'd sure appreciate it.

Brazil breaks record in installed power capacityStaff Writer | January 12, 2017
A total of 9,526 megawatts had been added to the Brazilian national energy grid by December last year, the highest value since the start of the series in 1998, according to data from the National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel).
Energy in Brazil The largest growth was in hydro
The largest growth in installed capacity (in absolute numbers) in 2016 was in hydro, which added about 5,000 MW to installed capacity (53% of the total increase).
The second largest source of growth was wind power, with 2,564 MW added to the grid (27% of total growth as of November 2016).
It was also the fastest-growing source: wind power grew its installed capacity by over 20% compared to 2015. By December 2016, there were 10,092 MW being generated by wind farms in Brazil. The state of Rio Grande do Norte was the largest contributor to the increase, with about 920 MW added, followed by Ceará (600 MW) and Bahia (520 MW).
Thermal power plants contributed an additional 1,758 MW to the grid in 2016 (representing 18% of total growth), while Small Hydro Power (SHP) added 203 MW (2%).
This year, the power source expected to show the highest numbers in absolute growth is again hydro, coming mostly from large power plants (approximately 4,000 MW). The relative growth of wind power will again be significant, with forecasts predicting an increase of about 2,400 MW in installed capacity.
Also of highlight are the works to advance motorisation of the Belo Monte HPP, to bring the Mauá wind farm into commercial operation and the Mauá 3 Thermal Power Plant (590 MW), the latter currently under construction in the city of Manaus (state of Amazonas). ■

What's The Difference Between Gambling And Investing?
Many people have debated the differences between gambling on sports and investing on the stock exchange, but is there that much difference?
The truth is there isn't. They're both markets in which those that play can win or lose, but those that make the time and effort to acquire the right knowledge and skill set and apply them in the correct way normally come out on top.
Both Industries Are Heavily Legalised
The stock exchange and the betting ring have been the basis of many famous fictional and non-fictional stories of corruption since they began. But both are now so heavily legalised that neither are no longer exploited by shady characters with brown paper envelopes full of cash.
Instead, both are now the domain of tech savvy professionals that use statistics and algorithms to predict outcomes and source the value in the markets.
Put simply, the world of global sports betting is a multi-billion industry which generates wealth for professional punters and their followers, just like the stock market generates profit for the best traders on Wall Street and their investors.
Why More People Are Betting on Sports
Stocks and shares used to almost guarantee a higher than average return on investment, but that hasn't been the case in recent times. With interest rates low and the property market almost stagnant, traders have struggled to guarantee a decent yield for their investors.
That has meant some investors taking a chance on more volatile stocks, but that's why all investment companies must now state "your investment may go up or down".
Low yields from stocks and shares and the increased chance of losing some of their investment has seen more investors willing to take a chance on sports betting.
That doesn't mean these shrewd people are blindly gambling their money in the hope of winning. Instead, they're taking professional advice to find value in a variety of betting markets and making long-term investments using the expertise of professional punters that have proven their ability to make a decent long-term return on investment.
Sports Betting Is A Competitive Market
There's no doubt that the online betting revolution has helped professional punters. Not only do they have betting exchanges where they can bet on and lay selections, but they also have an army of online bookmakers competing with exchanges for their business.
This means professional punters have never been in a better position to exploit the value that many of these online sites are offering.
Many bookmakers even offer incentives like free bets for punters to sign-up, whilst offering other promotions to existing players as a reward for their loyalty.
That's the complete opposite in the world of stocks and shares, in which there aren't even the same amount of opportunities there were 20 years ago.
Competition Has Increased Liquidity
Many years ago, punters would have had a choice of taking early prices, the starting price, or an on-course price. But you no longer need to take on one bookmaker head-to-head. Instead, you can shop around and get the best odds on offer. You can even spread your money around if more than one bookie is offering value prices about the selections you want to back.
Even better, lots of people still bet for fun, placing bets with their hearts rather than their heads. This means that markets are seldom one-sided and shrewd professional punters can seriously exploit the value.
Football markets are a prime example, as many fans will bet on their team just because they want to double their excitement if their team wins and they win money at the same time. It's the same with horse racing, with many punters happy to back horses that have done them a favour before rather than working out which horses offer the best value in the race.
Understanding The VIG
The VIG is a term that is often used to refer to the "bookies cut" or the percentage that's built into a betting market and understanding it can help you find value bets.
Hypothetically, in a horse race with 10 runners, the bookies may price up each horse at 8/1. Those odds sound quite enticing, as a £10 bet at 8/1 would net you a profit of £80. However, if the bookie takes £10 on every horse, he's guaranteed a £10 profit whichever one wins.
Betting markets aren't quite that simple, as prices tend to be much more varied. However, bookies will still price in the VIG, which also allows them to alter prices in and out under the demands of the money that comes for each horse.
This is where a professional punter uses his vast experience of finding value. If he thinks a horse that he fancies should be 2/1 to win a race and it is 3/1 – it's a must bet. However, if the 2/1 shot is only offer at 6/4, he won't have a bet as it offers no value.
Backing a horse at a lower price than you think it should be is crazy. Do you think stock exchange traders buy stocks when a company is at the peak of its popularity?
Accessibility of Information
Because sports are so popular, you'll find there is usually plenty of accessible information about the kind of statistics you might use to formulate a sports bet.
Football punters may look at past head-to-heads, injury lists, and a wealth of other information before formulating their bets.
Meanwhile, horse racing punters may consider statistics such as going conditions, distance, times, jockey bookings, and trainer form to name but a few. There are also new trends such as studying stride patterns to work out a horse's potential optimum conditions.
That's the total opposite to stocks and shares, where it's very hard to find out useful information. You can even get done for insider trading, if someone leaks something to you before anyone else knows about it.
It's Not Wrong To Pay Someone For Their Expertise
For years, stock exchange traders have earned their money by charging investors commission, but of course, you can pick your own stock and shares.
Sports betting is no different. You can pick your own selections and, if you're a good judge, you'll make a profit. But if you find yourself making a loss, don't despair, Betting Gods has many professional punters that are willing to share their expertise for a reasonable fee.
You'll also find that their long-term return on investment compares favourably with those offered by stocks and shares – which is why we think our gambling tips will be a good investment!
