Local teacher tapped for state task force
Task force to tackle concerns in opioid crisis
Brandon Gosey has spent his entire career in education, but now House Speaker Tim Moore has tapped him for input on a larger issue.
Gosey is one of 12 public members on a state task force that will be looking at sentencing reforms for people with opioid convictions.
"I am honored to be asked by Speaker Moore to serve on the Sentencing Reforms for Opioid Convictions Task Force. President Trump recently declared the opioid crisis a 'national health emergency.' I am encouraged by the work of our state leadership to bring attention to this serious issue. I am eagerly willing to listen to anyone who may have various ideas, recommendations or viewpoints with regards to the opioid crisis. I am hopeful that my work with state leaders will impact North Carolina and Cleveland County in a positive manner," Gosey said.
Gosey graduated from Western Carolina University in 2004 and started teaching just after that at Rutherford County Schools as a special educations teacher.
He then spent time working with Isothermal Community College, helping adults get their GED. While with the community college, he started working with prisoners to get their GEDs.
"The sense of pride they have when it's completed is something else," Gosey said.
Now Gosey is a teacher at Burns High School and a member of the Rutherford County school board.
He believes having an education could be a key factor in some people's recovery from the cycle of opioid addiction.
"These people need life rehab in a sense instead of just arresting them and putting them away," Gosey said. "The task force wants to look at what is the method that can be done to get off of the dependency."
The task force is comprised of people from the legislature, judicial system, education system and the mental health profession.
He is hoping the task force will be able to come up with some possible solutions to this growing epidemic.
"This is just putting all of the puzzle pieces together," Gosey said.
The group will be meeting for the first time in the next month and will provide the state legislature with an initial report in 2018 and a final one in 2019.

Greetings Fellow Members. The good news is that we are scheduling future work with high expectations of being able to actually complete it. We are of course holding our breath!!!!!.
Note: Recent Grand Lodge edict allows virtual meetings, but cancels all in-person meeting for the rest of the year. This bulletin was created before the edict was presented.
Greetings Fellow Masked Members. We have managed to get in some work despite the best efforts of Covid and the Grand Lodge Communication was held on October 23rd and they did it in one day. Don't you get nervous when old guys start to reminisce, and they want to tell you about their Grand Lodge experience back in the day. Yeah me too but I am going to reminisce anyway. Those were the days, getting up early and getting a good seat, watching all the pomp and ceremony for 2 ½ days and then going out to enjoy some fellowship with the guys every night in a new town where no one knew you except the guys you were with and they weren't going to blab about your exploits. It felt good to watch the proceedings and to be a part of something meaningful. What a difference a year makes. Even though things have changed you still belong to something meaningful. There are lessons to relearn, tenants to explore and ideas about life and what it can mean for you. Active participation is a great way to reinforce the early lessons you learned. Learn the work of a particular chair that interests you, learn a lecture or charge and ask to fill in on degree night and give it. I guarantee the experience will increase your desire to learn more and help you to appreciate your fraternity.
November 13 is our Annual Stated Meeting and Election of Officers at 7pm.
November 20 is Installation of Officers and Awards Night at 7 pm. Note: We will not be serving dinner on November 20.
We will be dark November 27 for Turkey Day.

Trump to Ban TikTok from the United States
President Donald Trump has announced that he is banning the Chinese-owned video-sharing app TikTok in the United States.
"As far as TikTok is concerned, we're banning them from the United States," Mr. Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on Friday.
The US officials have expressed security concerns over TikTok since it was purchased by the Chinese company ByteDance in 2017.
the US military in December 2019, announced that service members would no longer be allowed to use the app on their government-issued devices.
Meanwhile, TikTok has denied all such accusations that it is controlled by or shares data with the Chinese government.
It was not exactly made clear that how would the POTUS ban TikTok, as the app is available to download for free on the iOS App Store and the Google Play store.
If the said is done, the ban would be a major blow for ByteDance. The video-sharing app has up to 80 million active monthly users in America and is among the fasted growing ones.
TikTok's US General Manager Vanessa Pappas appeared in a one-minute video released Saturday morning addressing the "TikTok community" in response to President Trump's announcement.
"We've heard your outpouring of support and we want to say thank you, we're not planning on going anywhere," Pappas said.
"TikTok is a home for creators and artists to express themselves, their ideas, and connect with others across different backgrounds and we are so proud of all the various communities that call TikTok their home."
Pappas thanked the 1,500 US employees who work on this app every day and mentioned that the platform's plans for an additional 10,000 jobs TikTok will be bringing into the US over the next three years.
Meanwhile, the social-media platform's expansive community reacted by posting memes in response to Donald Trump's statement.
anyways follow my ig in bio♬ dont use if straight tiktok – hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia

Today, I am…..
Down, Down right Down!
Down to the Ground,
Down with a Frown,
Down wanting NOT a Sound!
Down! Down! Down!
Down, just wanting to Drown, with No Sound, all the way to the Ground with my Frown!
While I was Down on the Ground,
I found a shiny gem,
Gem, Gem, said to I,
"Do not be Down, as there are many Crowns around".
I looked around,
And She was right,
Why be Down when I can, Wear my beautiful Gown out to Town!
I'm off, I'm off, for the Showdown tonight,
I am in spirit and off to Shanty-Town.

If you're like me & too poor to afford to watch Twin Peaks' revival on Showtime, Riverdale may tide you over. At first I scoffed at this show because it's six years too late for a gritty melodramatic adaptation of Archie Comics, the wholesome teenage love triangle sitcom that has inexplicably been in print for seventy-six years. To my surprise, the show that aired after Powerless is actually good! It should not work nearly as well as it does. Curse you for making so much quality television, CW! (If comic book adaptations aren't your cup of tea, I suggest The 100 & Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.)
It's probably a lot easier to enjoy this if you're not a die-hard Archie fan (I've never met one in person, but I'm sure they exist) since it takes giant liberties with such characters as Chuck Clayton, Dilton Doiley, & Ethel Muggs. Jughead isn't asexual, although the series was well into development when the latest comics reboot made that canon. It would've been easy to write Veronica Lodge in her Middle Earth cape as the rich bitch, but they've subverted that so well by making her repentantly compassionate. (The ensemble is so wonderful it's hard to believe this is Camila Mendes's first TV role.) Instead of fighting with Betty Cooper for Archie's affections, they're an awesome friend duo. Prototypical all-American girl next door (which could mean something very different depending on where you go in the US) Betty Cooper gets layers & family drama from having a mom named Alice Cooper who's not the shock rocker. It's spider brooch wearing Cheryl Blossom that gets to be the over the top mean girl, but it's surprising she turned out as well-adjusted given her Gothic upbringing in Thornhill. Josie & the Pussycats give ridiculously awesome concerts, although they can't top the superlative Josie & the Pussycats movie. Archie Andrews is ostensibly the star yet he remains its least interesting character. He's also gauche enough to wear a varsity jacket to a wake.
The parents, played by former teen heartthrobs, get expanded roles to literally act as depressing mirrors to what the teens could grow into. Jughead's dad being a crimester never stops being shocking, although the entire Southside of town being a biker gang seems dubious. The tone is at the cross roads of deadly serious & arch camp, making it strangely addictive. I suspected the killer was Pop Tate, who just wanted to give his best customer,
Forsythe Pendleton Jones III Jughead, a topic for his literary debut! I wish I knew how to use spoiler text here so I can make a David Lynch quip about the real killer without giving it away.
Season one tells a complete mystery that still has me anticipating season two. I wanted Edward James Olmos for Hiram Lodge, but they cast Mark Consuelos. He needs to ride into town atop a throne of skulls. (Part of me wishes they'd changed Lodge to Hacienda so Veronica's parents could get in on the alliterative name action.) Will Betty's dissociative fugues resurface? Will Riverdale recasting Reggie rankle me as much as Gotham's Firefly? When will we meet Midge Klump? Can they get Dove Cameron to be Sabrina Spellman? How can modern special effects measure up to the majesty that is Sabrina the Teenage Witch's Salem? I just need season two to dive right into the supernatural & time travel so half the fandom will flip their lids! The next season will have about twice as many episodes, so they'll have to add plenty of kookiness so the pacing doesn't dry up. Also Cheryl Blossom should hit the gym to become literally #RiverdaleStrong!
I am fascinated by
Clickhole's Patriothole's "You Are The Cannibal Lobster-Man Of New England"simulator. Where are Anna Kendrick's Maine gubernatorial campaign ads?
I neglected to complain about Fox's The Gifted while I was trying to be all on topic for the past few installments. It's still a dull name for an X-Men show. Children of the Atom sounds much more dynamic. Even worse it looks like a generic ripoff of Heroes which already was an X-Men ripoff! I don't understand how they got Blink's makeup right in Days of Future Past, but she just has a magenta smudge below her eye in the TV show? Its Sentinels are just tiny Star Wars destroyer droids. It's set in another bland world where nobody has costumes & the X-Men & the Brotherhood
of Evil Mutants are conveniently absent. The blonde kids are supposedly Struckers but not the Fenris twins? Amy Acker's being squandered in a mom role. Polaris doesn't even have her signature green hair! (I know Polaris originally dyed her verdant locks to blend in with flatscans, but I'm not going to give Bryan Singer that much credit.) And I had such high hopes for this after Legion! Consider my expectations subterranean! It's taking Gotham's time slot, so now I guess I can watch Supergirl live unless this gets rave reviews.
Me Cheeta, the salacious tell-all of Cheeta the chimpanzee thespian, was most amusing & heartwenching. Sadly chapter 2.8 has been censored for legal reasons. While it's been debunked that the Cheeta the book is ostensibly about neither worked with Johnny Weissmuller nor is the the oldest living chimp, there was actually another chimp that probably meets that criteria. So this scandalous autobiography managed to lie its way to the truth!
Terry Rossio's "Time Risk" blog is making the rounds because it revealed Johnny Depp arbitrarily nixed a female antagonist from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. That's merely the clickbait tip of the content iceberg! The real reason to read the whole thing is because of all the other Hollywood anecdotes & practical screenwriting advice. It's an appropriately long read, but worth it!
Continuing my efforts to consume limited edition food, I tried Dairy Queen's
2 Guardians 2 Galaxy Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Brookie Blizzard. It was good albeit melty & would've splashed over my car if I didn't have a premonition. I have an incredibly specific superpower.
Wonder Woman is finally getting a feature film! Watch this space for a review coming up very soon!

Functional poisons called chemical compounds, do not cause visible destructive or non-critical changes to the human body. Externally, to determine the presence of toxic substances this group of poisons is almost impossible. Needed the special medical and chemical expertise.
Functional poisons: types
Functional poisons in terms of impact on the systems of the body are divided into groups:
- causing paralysis;
- a depressing impact on the CNS;
- causing seizures;
- inhibiting the peripheral nervous system.
Cyanides and organic compounds of phosphorus form a group of poisons, cause paralysis of breathing and heartbeat.
Cyanide is generally called chemical derivatives of hydrocyanic acid. Once in the human body, they acquire a peculiar smell of bitter almonds. The presence of this odor at the stage of initial investigative actions involve cyanide intoxication, and make a decision about the examination.
Toxicity of paralytic poisons is manifested in the suppression of the enzymes of the cells, providing cellular respiration. During the examination the forensic scientist says death from suffocation.
Organic phosphorus compounds are contained in almost all common household toxic chemicals. As a rule, this toxic liquid, but there are powdery: dust, for example. Functional paralyzing poisons are in the so-called subgroup of the poisons blood, that is, manifest their toxic properties, when get into the human bloodstream. Phosphate chemicals have the ability to penetrate even through the skin. In the blood the toxins enter, dissolving in fatty tissue, or through the lungs.
At acute poisoning with phosphorus chemicals at autopsy indicates specific swelling of internal organs, the overflowed liquid blood, very dark in color. Chronic poisoning is manifested as structural collapse of the vital organs, entailing, it would seem, natural causes of death – respiratory diseases, infection, anemia, dystrophy.
The functional poisons poisoning can occur at any age. This most often occurs during the consumption of low-quality alcohol.
Poisoning functional poisons: reaction
The reaction of the body in contact with cyanide or derivatives of phosphorus is of two types:
- lightning reaction occurs when ingested large doses and is manifested as spasm of neck ligaments, syncope and sudden death in 2-3 minutes;
- slow response is manifested as a series of low-intensity symptoms, the same as the mild pain in my heart, irrational fear, vomiting, bitter taste in the mouth, shortness of breath. In the event of failure of the antidote occur cramps, and then death.
Toxin, a depressing impact on the CNS, is considered to be ethyl alcohol. Surrogates and derivatives ethyl alcohol is more toxic and often lead to all kinds of complications. These include the barbiturate, chloroform, live, antifreeze, aldehydes, morphine, luminal and other hypnotics. Strength of toxic effect of alcohol depends on its strength and the amount of fusel oils. A lethal dose is 8 milliliters to 1 kilogram of body weight of a person.
When alcohol becomes a poison
Functional poisons have an immediate negative effect on people. Most often, the poisoning ends with the failure of the organs or death.
A person who has consumed alcohol, the person experiences a brief period of euphoria drug, soon changing into paralysis. Observed uncoordinated, sensation of heat. Further exposure occurs in the cerebral cortex, appears aggression.
Surrogates of ethanol are distinguished by the unpleasant smell, due to the high content of fusel oils. The most common substitutes of ethyl alcohol are methyl and amyl alcohols.
To the overall picture of poisoning with ethanol, methyl alcohol adds vision loss. Decomposition products of methyl alcohol is also toxic. A pair of formic acid is able to inhibit the respiratory enzymes in cells. Depending on the come consequences there are three forms of barbiturate poisoning:
- easy, the symptoms are similar to intoxication with ethanol;
- causing lose of ophthalmic nerve – fragmented vision, blindness;
- generalized – cramps, coma, death.
Amyl alcohol – a component of moonshine affects the structure of the medulla oblongata, blocking its centers, what causes respiratory failure or paralysis of the limbs.
The danger of rubbing alcohol
As poisons, causing seizures, are many medicines failure to follow the dosage intake. It is used in medicine and, especially, in surgery, stimulating the Central nervous system substance — amphetamine, atropine, scopolamine, strychnine.
All these substances are powerful drugs, giving such reactions of the organism, as the confusion, excitation, incoherent speech, hallucinations, paranoid behavior and delusions. Large doses of drugs lead to a fatal congestion of the brain centers, clearly entailing coma and death.
Poisons with a primary effect on the peripheral nervous system are also special drugs, used in medicine to reduce muscle tone of smooth muscles, including skeletal muscle.
Most often, the muscle relaxants used in surgery for muscle relaxation in anaesthesia. The mode of action of muscle relaxants is to cut the nerve signal from the brain to the tissues, causing the muscles cease to contract. In high doses, cause heart failure or sudden release of histamine.

Hello. This is Keir Starmer.
THE official Sir Keir Starmer fanclub page got another update yesterday. Sorry, I mean Robert Latham's Facebook page. This time with a Better Together snap with none other than Frank Dobson, the man Sir K hopes to succeed in parliament come next May.
The phonebank was being hammered by the all-star cast to get the 'no' vote out, but surely nobody can be in any doubt that it was the post-poned Camden full council meeting on Monday wot won it for the union.
You might think, as the selection saga runs on and on, north London Labour types might find endless pictures of the H&St P candidates on their FB screens a little fatiguing, even compared with the usual fare of nostalgic Buzzfeed links and pictures of their long lost university friend's babies.
But Bob is a canny guy and he must know the nation has shown before how much it loves a good politician-on-the-phone update on social media. Now he just has to sit back and wait for Sir Patrick Stewart to play along.

The Holy Spirit causes many things to be said in which he has a meaning different from that understood by humans. This is seen by what he brought Caiaphas to say of Christ: It is better that one man die than that the whole nation perish [Jn. 11:50]. Caiaphas did not say these words on his own, and he expressed and understood them in one way while the Holy Spirit did so in another.
Saint John of the Cross
The Ascent of Mount Carmel, II, ch. 19, no. 9
John of the Cross, St. 1991, The Collected Works of St. John of the Cross, Revised Edition, translated from the Spanish by Kavanaugh, K and Rodriguez, O with revisions and introductions by Kavanaugh, K, ICS Publications, Washington DC.
Featured Image: Christ before Caiaphas, (ca. 1525–1530) is an illumination by Flemish miniaturist Simon Bening (ca. 1483–1561) found in the Prayer Book of Cardinal Albrecht of Brandenburg in the collections of the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles (not currently on view). It was executed in tempera colors, gold paint, and gold leaf on parchment.
The gallery label provides us the following information concerning this image, of which we show a detail:
In this miniature the artist Simon Bening emphasized the contrast between the passive and gentle Jesus, in a neutral-colored garment, and the aggressively hostile high priest Caiaphas, clothed in more vivid colors and vigorously confronting him. Following Saint Matthew's Gospel, Caiaphas tears at his robe as he accuses Jesus of blasphemy for identifying himself as the Messiah. In contrast, Jesus, his physical beauty underscoring his divinity, calmly accepts his destiny. The artist heightened the drama of the confrontation by setting the scene in a darkened, monumental interior, illuminated only by eerie torchlight. By depicting a vulnerable and very human Jesus, Bening encouraged the reader to empathize with Jesus' suffering, a response that the Church and much religious art of the later Middle Ages promoted.
Bening framed the scene with simulated wood arches, suggesting that the viewer is peering through a window into a real, three-dimensional space. The frame also recalls the frames found on the altarpieces that graced the interiors of contemporary churches and chapels, reinforcing the devotional nature of the image.

Over 100 women benefited from a series of Women's Cycle Evenings across Hampshire recently, enjoying the relaxed atmosphere, and coming away armed with an array of new skills and greater awareness of bike types, parts, and accessories, and doing some hands-on repairs and maintenance.
The evenings were coordinated by Energise Me Women's Cycling Coordinator Ruth Crawford, and planned and promoted in partnership with the local Breeze Network Champions and local bike shops in their areas.
"It's been tremendously successful, and really catered for a range of needs" said Ruth. "We did some survey work in advance, and some women had said that they were too intimidated to even go into any bike shop so we needed to address that by offering a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere and encouraging more experienced ladies to bring a friend, and Champions to bring their participants.
A huge number wanted demonstrations hands on experience of puncture-fixing, as well as learning more about their bikes and how to care for them, as well as de-mystifying the huge range of bike options, accessories, and clothing types. So that's what we did."
Evenings at Sylvester Cycles (Farnborough), Hargroves Cycles (Winchester and Southampton), Abbotts Ann Cycles (Andover), and Pedal Heaven (Fleet) were soon fully booked, with the local bike shops offering refreshments on arrival, friendly introductions, break-out workshops and a chance to ask lots of questions. There was also the opportunity to shop with a range of discounts, and with close interaction with the knowledgeable staff, so attendees knew what they were buying was actually what they needed, and so far the feedback has been really positive:
"I may stand a chance of mending a puncture now !! Very informative evening – thank you!" – Workshop attendee.
"Thank you for organising this evening. Those I spoke to really enjoyed it. Everyone learned a lot and felt comfortable asking questions, however trivial. We would love to be able to do this again in the future. The evening has been a huge step forward for the way that bike shops are perceived." – Local Breeze Champion.
"Thanks for a good evening last night. It was great to meet you all and although I've mended my fair share of punctures and fiddled with bikes a bit I came away having learned something new which is always a great thing! The hands on mending punctures was great and I know that actually being able to have a go makes all the difference. Really worthwhile. I would also like to try and encourage some of the mums at my club to get involved with Breeze as I'm sure there are many who are keen. I'll certainly pass on the info you gave me." – Workshop attendee.
"For the long term, we want women to feel comfortable in their local bike shops, and for the bike shops and staff to have the local insight into 'what women want'" added Ruth. "The Breeze initiative and led rides are excellent, and by upskilling the participants, it both helps out the leaders, and also will enable all the women to ride with more confidence at other times, on their own, or with friends or family, secure in the knowledge they will be able to deal with the inevitable puncture when it arrives! They become more assertive, independent, and hopefully will enjoy their cycling even more."

Leuveris is an injection
Luveris® is the first and only pure recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH) available in the US. It is used in combination with GONAL-f® (follitropin alfa for injection) to stimulate follicular development in infertile hypogonadotropic hypogonadal (HH) women with profound LH deficiency (LH<1.2 IU/L). A definitive effect on pregnancy in this population has not been demonstrated. The safety and effectiveness of concomitant administration of Luveris with any other preparation of recombinant human FSH or urinary FSH is unknown.HH is a rare endocrine deficiency. Women with HH are unable to produce the hormones needed for full development of follicles in the ovaries, ovulation and growth of the lining of the uterus sufficient to support implantation of a fertilized egg and early pregnancy. Luveris® addresses an unmet medical need and has received Orphan Drug exclusivity from the FDA.
Luveris is sold as individual vials. Each vial contains 75 IU powder and solvent for solution for injection. The vial and the solvent need to be mixed together, it does not come in premixed syringes.
The Difference Between US and European Luveris
Luveris on IVFPharmacy is made by Serono Pharmaceuticals. It is a brand medication, not generic. The drug composition is exactly the same as Luveris in the US but the packaging may vary slightly.
Luveris (lutropin alfa) is a purified form of a hormone called luteinizing (LOO-tin-eye-zing) hormone, or LH. This hormone is important in the development of follicles (eggs) produced by the ovaries in women.
Luveris is used together with follitropin alfa to treat infertility in women with LH deficiency.
Luveris will not cause ovulation (production of an egg by the ovaries). You will need to receive other medicines to stimulate ovulation.
Important information
You should not use Luveris if you have primary ovarian failure, abnormal vaginal bleeding, uncontrolled thyroid or adrenal gland disorders, an ovarian cyst, uterine or ovarian cancer, a pituitary gland tumor, or infertility that is not caused by lack of ovulation.
Do not use Luveris if you are pregnant.
Stop using Luveris, do not have sexual intercourse, and call your doctor right away if you have any of the following symptoms: stomach pain, bloating, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, rapid weight gain, little or no urinating, or pain when you breathe, rapid heart rate, or shortness of breath.
Treatment with Luveris increases the likelihood of multiple births. Multiple births carry additional risk both for the mother and for fetuses. Discuss the risk of multiple births with your healthcare provider.
Before taking this medicine
You should not use Luveris if you are allergic to lutropin alfa or similar medicines (such as follitropin, menotropin, urofollitropin), or if you have:
infertility that is not caused by lack of ovulation;
a condition called primary ovarian failure;
abnormal vaginal bleeding that has not been checked by a doctor;
an untreated or uncontrolled disorder of your thyroid or adrenal gland;
an ovarian cyst;
cancer of the uterus or ovary;
a tumor of your pituitary gland; or
if you are pregnant.
Your doctor will perform blood tests and a pelvic exam to make sure you do not have conditions that would prevent you from safely using Luveris.
Your male sexual partner's fertility should also be checked before you are treated with Luveris.
To make sure Luveris is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have risk factors for coronary artery disease, such as:
high blood pressure or high cholesterol;
a family history of coronary artery disease;
smoking; or
being overweight.
Using Luveris can increase your chances of having a multiple pregnancy (twins, triplets, quadruplets, etc). A multiple pregnancy is a high-risk pregnancy for the mother and for the babies. Follow your doctor's instructions about any special care you may need during your pregnancy.
Luveris may also increase your risk of tubal pregnancy, miscarriage, stillbirth, premature labor, birth defects, or fever after childbirth if you become pregnant after being treated with this medicine. Talk with your doctor if you are concerned about these risks.
Luveris may increase your risk of developing uterine cancer. Ask your doctor about your specific risk. Report any unusual vaginal bleeding right away.
FDA pregnancy category X. Although Luveris can help you become pregnant, this medicine can harm an unborn baby or cause birth defects. Do not use Luveris if you are pregnant. Tell your doctor right away if you become pregnant during treatment.
It is not known whether lutropin alfa passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
Luveris is injected under the skin. You may be shown how to use injections at home. Do not self-inject this medicine if you do not understand how to give the injection and properly dispose of used needles and syringes.
Follow all directions on your prescription label. Do not use this medicine in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.
This medicine comes with patient instructions for safe and effective use. Follow these directions carefully. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.
Luveris is a powder medicine that must be mixed with a liquid (diluent) before using it. If you are using the injections at home, be sure you understand how to properly mix and store the medicine.
Gently swirl the medicine after mixing. Do not shake the medication bottle or you may ruin the medicine. Prepare your dose only when you are ready to give an injection. Do not use if the medicine is cloudy, has changed colors, or has particles in it. Call your pharmacist for new medicine.
Luveris is usually given daily for up to 14 days. To be sure the medicine is effective, you will need frequent blood tests and ultrasound exams. You may also need to record your temperature on a daily chart.
For the best results from your fertility treatments, follow your doctor's instructions very carefully.
Use a disposable needle only once. Follow any state or local laws about throwing away used needles and syringes. Use a puncture-proof "sharps" disposal container (ask your pharmacist where to get one and how to throw it away). Keep this container out of the reach of children and pets.
Store unmixed powder medicine at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and light.
You may also store the powder in a refrigerator. Do not freeze.
Infertility is often treated with a combination of drugs. Use all medications as directed by your doctor. Read the medication guide or patient instructions provided with each medication. Do not change your doses or medication schedule without your doctor's advice.

The Camden County police conducted drug sweep last week, arresting 19 drug dealers and 45 alleged drug buyers. The Courier Post lists the names and home towns of all who were arrested: "64 arrested in Camden drug sweep," June 2, 2013.
Fully 80 percent of the buyers were not Camden residents. In fact, the buyers come from all over the region, including upscale suburbs like Audubon, Cherry Hill, and Vorhees. While many suburban residents may look down on Camden, they do not seem to realize that Camden bears the burden of supplying drugs to users in their own communities. The consequences for the young men of Camden who meet the suburban thirst for drugs are dire. Young men become involved in violent clashes over control of the trade trade, leading to shootings and an astonishing number of murders for such a small community. Those who survive will usually be arrested and, with a criminal record, will find it hard to ever escape the streets for a job in the mainstream economy.
The point is not to excuse those who sell drugs for a living, in Camden or elsewhere. Rather, the point is that Camden is not the sole source of the problem, since every drug transaction has a buyer and a seller. The drug problem transcends Camden, but Camden bears a disproportionate share of the collateral damage of the drug trade in terms of ruined lives and squandered opportunities. Suburban jurisdictions need to recognize the complicity of their own communities in contributing to Camden's problems, and not feel content to wash their hands and look away.

Should We Be Treating PTSD With THC?
Women suffering from post-traumatic stress as a result of sexual assaults are being prescribed psychiatric medicines, even though there's plenty of anecdotal evidence that medical cannabis is another potential solution
D., a 26-year-old woman from the north of Israel, says she began to suffer from nightmares about seven years ago, after her partner raped her. After undergoing various forms of therapy, she thought she had largely put the trauma behind her. Then, two years ago, she chanced to see the rapist not far from her home. The nightmares came swarming back.
"I fell into a depression that went on until not long ago, during which I hardly slept or ate," she says in a quiet voice. "My whole life turned upside down. I left my job. Everything came to a stop. I went back to taking antidepressants and tranquilizers - Cipralex, Lustral and Prozac; sleeping pills that made me addicted. It was a nightmare. There was no way I could get through the day without those pills. Then I discovered cannabis."
Of approximately 6,000 Israelis currently being treated with medical cannabis (aka medical marijuana ), most suffer from chronic pain and terminal illnesses. The therapeutic potential of cannabis has been known for many years and is recognized by the Health Ministry. But many patients - for example, victims of sexual assault who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD ) and have a psychiatric recommendation for treatment with medical cannabis - encounter bureaucratic obstacles.
A year and a half ago, Dr. Yehuda Baruch - the chair of the Health Ministry's advisory board for medical cannabis - recognized the effectiveness of the substance for PTSD sufferers. Within a year, 142 requests by such patients for treatment were approved. Dozens of soldiers who suffer from PTSD as a result of their army service were, and continue to be, treated with medical cannabis, with the authorization and support of the Health Ministry and the Ministry of Defense. However, victims of sexual assault have been left out in the cold.
For D., marijuana is not a drug but a medicine. "When I smoked, I didn't need medicines," she says. "It didn't make my life good and beautiful, but it did make it bearable." She now shuns the array of medicines and sleeping pills she took because of the side effects. "If you take sleeping pills, you will bring yourself into sleep mode, you will succeed in getting yourself into bed and shutting off the light, but in the morning you are not the same person. You don't function. The quantity of pills I need in order to fall asleep will turn me into a zombie the next day. My brain is erased; people speak to me but I don't function. How can you live like that? How can you work like that, study, go out of the house, communicate with people?
"I refuse to take antidepressants because of the huge amount of weight I put on, and which I was able to shed only after I stopped taking them," she adds. "They also gave me constant stomachaches, made me nauseous and itchy, and caused dry skin and headaches. That's what life with medicinal drugs is like. So, yes, I'm not depressed. I don't want to die, but I also don't want to live. I'm not me, I don't feel anything, I'm some kind of robot - not happy, not sad, not anything. I am a straight line. It's not a life."
In June 2010, D. and the psychiatrist who was treating her requested a permit for the use of medical cannabis from the Health Ministry. A year later, she is still waiting for an answer. With no alternative, she smokes cannabis obtained illegally. "I am not a criminal," she says. "I need treatment and I can't go back to the serious side effects, which only make things worse."
The cannabis is effective, but fear of the police leaves her in a constant state of anxiety. "These days, most of my nightmares have to do with the police arriving and entering my home," D. says. "It's like rape, as though this is the only safe place I still have but it's not actually safe."
Perchance to dream
Tens of thousands of Israelis are afflicted by a wide variety of traumas every year, caused by everything from battle fatigue, terrorist attacks and road accidents to life threatening diseases. And about 3,000 sexual assaults are perpetrated each year. A small percentage of people, unable to liberate themselves from the trauma, are classified as suffering from PTSD. The conventional treatment in hospitals fuses psychology - in the form of cognitive therapy techniques - with psychiatric medicines, including antianxiety medications, sleeping pills and antidepressants. In recent years, researchers around the world have begun to probe more natural treatments, notably medical marijuana. New Mexico, for example, has passed legislation authorizing medical cannabis for soldiers who returned from a tour of duty in Iraq or Afghanistan suffering from PTSD. A number of interesting studies have been carried out on this subject in Israel. Prof. Rafael Meshulam, an Israel Prize laureate for chemistry and one of the country's leading experts in medical cannabis, and Dr. Irit Akirav, from the Department of Psychology at the University of Haifa, have shown, in separate research, some of the marked advantages of the treatment. "At this stage we are talking only about rats," Dr. Akirav explains, "but the model is relevant for humans, too."
According to Prof. Meshulam, "The active material in marijuana, tetrahydrocannibinol (THC ), emulates activity of materials that are bound up with an important system in the body - the endocannabinoid system. This system plays a critical role in regulating proper eating functions and various mental states, including forgetting. Forgetting is not necessarily something negative. If you enter a department store where there are a thousand people, do you want to remember what each of them looked like? Of course not. It's the same with trauma. What is post-trauma, actually? Something terrible happened and left a very strong impression. A week passes, a month passes, and it doesn't go away. You are unable to forget."
The experiments conducted by Prof. Meshulam and his colleagues were based on administering medical cannabis to mice that had been exposed to a trauma (electric shock ) after their endocannabinoid system was neutralized. The results were clearly positive. The hypothesis was confirmed in subsequent experiments, including a famous experiment carried out by Dr. George Fraser, a Canadian psychiatrist with abundant experience in treating soldiers with PTSD. "A significant improvement was observed in 70 percent of the soldiers who took part in that research, particularly in regard to their sleep," Prof. Meshulam notes. "And why do we examine forgetting and sleep in particular? Because they are essential. One of the most terrible phenomena among PTSD sufferers is that they are unable to sleep: They are afflicted by nightmares and are afraid to fall asleep."
In a similar experiment using rats, Dr. Akirav examined the effect of medical cannabis on a mechanism known as "extinction learning," which serves humans and animals to overcome past trauma. In this experiment, the medical cannabis is injected directly into the part of the brain called the amygdala, which is responsible for emotional memory and the sensation of fear. The rats were also exposed to additional pressure, resembling the permanent stress to which post-trauma patients are subject.
"The medical cannabis helped the rats with extinction learning, despite the trauma and the additional pressure," Dr. Akirav says. "That is extremely important, because researchers and psychiatrists maintain that in human beings who develop post-trauma, something has gone awry in the extinction learning mechanism - that is, they do not succeed in learning that something that was once dangerous is now safe." She emphasizes that the aim of treatment with medical cannabis is not to generate a high or a state of euphoria. "It is a tool," she explains. "The animals do not get a high, nor is their memory completely erased. The aim is simply to influence the element in the emotional memory that is responsible for extinction learning."
More dangerous and addictive
Cannabis is a medicine in every respect, Prof. Meshulam says. He does not understand the reluctance of many psychiatrists to make use of the substance on the grounds that it is dangerous and addictive. "The great majority of them are simply uninformed, period," he believes. "With psychiatric drugs, it's also hard to know what will help who, because it's hard to know which mechanism has gone wrong and which medicine will help. But to say marijuana can't help is from sheer lack of knowledge."
Even though the Health Ministry is aware of the findings of the experiments conducted in Israel and abroad, patients now face increasing obstacles instead of benefiting from solutions. "It is amazing that for my post-trauma I easily - and without unnecessary arguments - get hard drugs such as opiates," says N., a 27-year-old woman from the south of the country who was a victim of sexual assault. "I call it medical heroin, because there isn't much difference between the heroin that's sold on the street and the OxyContin that is prescribed for me. I also get sleeping pills from the benzaprine family, and for dessert I am offered Ritalin. The paradox is that all these medicines are far more dangerous and addictive than marijuana."
The situation is "absurd," says Dr. Ilya Reznik, an expert on the subject and medical director of the Israel Institute for Diagnostic Neuropsychiatry. "Cannabis was approved for post-trauma [treatment] in the past, and then suddenly Dr. Baruch demanded that those applying for approval for post-trauma treatment be recognized as disabled by the National Insurance Institute or by the Defense Ministry, and show proven experience with at least three psychiatric drugs for a very long period - at least half a year with each drug. He also demanded that we refer to cannabis only those patients who are resistant to all the other drugs, and that cannabis constitute a third- or fourth-line treatment for post-trauma. He was actually stipulating far harsher conditions than those demanded by clinical experiments, because cannabis is no more than a medicinal herb, and you can't compare a medicinal herb to Prozac and its like, which had all the wisdom of the scientific world invested in their development."
For whom is cannabis suitable?
Reznik: "Cannabis is suitable for intermediate cases; there is no point demanding that it be used only in the hardest cases, in which no medicine helps. That is just wrong. People diagnosed with cancer receive cannabis straightaway. So why, in cases of post-trauma, is it necessary to wait for the most difficult cases before they are ready to allow its use, if at all? The Health Ministry's approach in this matter is insensitive and without any scientific basis - and I say this on the record, because Dr. Baruch and I talked about it in several scientific conferences and I told him then that what the ministry is doing is not right. What if someone does not want to be officially categorized as disabled? Some people are ashamed to go before committees. Does that mean they are not entitled? That cannot be a Health Ministry criterion."
What do your physician colleagues say?
"On this issue, the medical establishment is divided into two: 95 percent are neutral-to-negative about cannabis, and the rest are neutral-to-positive. No more. Why? It's conservatism. They were always taught that cannabis is bad, that cannabis is a drug, and the moment they hear the word 'cannabis' they see handcuffs looming on the horizon. So they run from it.
"Very few in Israel have experience with medical cannabis. Yehuda Baruch allows himself to set criteria, but he says, 'Persuade me, I am receptive.' He is not a bad person - we have friendly relations - and he is open to suggestions, but the criterion he set is not based on scientific data, period."
Like a walking zombie
"We do not get authorization," D. says. "Apparently only men get such authorization for PTSD. We women are not heroic soldiers who were traumatized while trying to defend the homeland. It's only now that I understand that I am a second-class citizen: I am a woman, I am the victim of a sexual assault, I suffer from depression, but I am apparently not as good as someone who has a backache."
The Health Ministry says no more permits are being issued for the use of medical cannabis in post-trauma therapy, unless the patient is also suffering from a disease that might justify its use (see box ). Disabled army veterans who received authorization in the past are continuing with cannabis therapy but are loath to be interviewed, even anonymously, for fear they will lose the authorization.
One former soldier who did agree to speak on the record is Avraham Sherwood, who was wounded in an incident in which two armored personnel carriers were destroyed and 13 soldiers killed in attacks by Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on successive days in May 2004. He saw his buddies killed and since then has suffered from physical problems and PTSD. "My previous doctor was dead set against the use of marijuana," Sherwood says. "In every meeting he would just give me a prescription for something new or raise the dosage of what I was taking. The problem with these medicines is they cause extreme side effects. They contain cortisone, you start to put on weight, everything is stored up in the body, your face bloats and you look like a walking zombie.
"The antipsychotic drugs cause all kinds of stomach problems - to this day I suffer from heartburn because of them," Sherwood adds. "From my point of view - I say only from my point of view, I don't know about other people - the psychiatric drugs failed to treat my PTSD. Then one day a friend saw that I was walking around with a whole case of medicines - for morning, afternoon and evening - and suggested that maybe I should get a second opinion. That's how I got to Dr. Baruch and told him I wanted to cut down the medicinal dosage and start functioning again." According to Sherwood, Dr. Baruch - the same Dr. Baruch who is preventing other PTSD victims from getting medical cannabis - was his salvation. "From my point of view, the man is a saint," Sherwood says. "He saved me. He asked me if I wanted to try medical marijuana, and I got very uptight. I was afraid of the side effects, things that I now know are nonsense, but which absolutely made me shake when he said the word 'marijuana.' My previous doctor had totally frightened both me and my father: He said I would become addicted and that I would move on to hard drugs, to heroin. But actually I had already used heroin, because the pills I was taking contained morphine - and what is morphine?"
Despite his fears, Sherwood decided to try medical cannabis for a month. "My life changed completely," he says with visible emotion. "My face went back to what it was, I lost weight, I became a human being again. People are afraid, but there are problems caused by taking so many medicines that it's hard to know what a person is suffering from. In the meantime, I am with marijuana. Dr. Baruch left me with one psychiatric drug, which he says is keeping me in balance for now, and he will gradually lower its dosage. I went down from 17 medicines to five, including those against pains, against the nerve damage in my hand and against heartburn."
Dr. Baruch's response makes no mention of Sherwood, but it can be gleaned from it that, even if one of his patients received authorization to be treated with medical cannabis, this was not due to post-traumatic symptoms but to some other medical problem.
"Not one of [my] private patients received authorization for treatment with medical cannabis for PTSD," Dr. Baruch stated. "As a rule, I do not take patients who want treatment with medical cannabis in my private clinic. To the best of my knowledge, only three patients who went through my private clinic in the six years during which I have dealt with the subject have received authorization to use medical cannabis. The vast majority of the 142 people [who received authorization] are requests from other psychiatrists."
Like magic
In the wake of Sherwood's favorable reaction and the positive experience that soldiers suffering from PTSD have had with medical cannabis, it is difficult to understand the refusal of the Health Ministry to provide the same effective treatment to victims of sexual assault - who suffer from equally debilitating post-traumatic symptoms. That is exactly the question that L. asked for many long months. A self-employed woman in her thirties from the north of the country, she has been suffering from PTSD for years as a result of childhood sexual assault.
"That is how I grew up. I don't know the meaning of being normal," she says. "I know what it means to be depressed and have nightmares and anxieties and feel uncomfortable among people. For years I didn't tell anyone. It took many years before I told my parents, and they were very uncomfortable with it. It's the kind of thing you don't talk about at home. All the talk is about my problems, and it's hard for them to make the connection. I had psychological therapy but nothing helped. It's not easy." She falls silent.
After composing herself, L. continues: "About six years ago, someone gave me medical cannabis, which he had, and it really helped me. Suddenly I was able to obtain a master's degree, find a job and have a social life. It was like magic. [Previously] I had a great many nightmares - I woke from sleep shouting - and it helped me stop being wound up all the time."
She also continued to receive medicinal treatment. "My doctor kept switching my drugs. I would tell her that they caused side effects and that I felt no change, but she would say, 'Take this, it will help you' - she just wasn't listening to me. Two years ago, I looked at all kinds of websites about medical cannabis and I saw that it was used in treatment for PTSD. Hey, I thought, this can really help me. Then I found Dr. S. and told him about my condition. He said medical cannabis could help me a great deal."
Despite the unreserved recommendation of Dr. S. - an expert in post-traumatic therapy - L. discovered that the Health Ministry wasn't about to come to her aid. "There were delays for six months," she remembers. "Dr. S. kept telling me he wanted to help but couldn't, because of all kinds of restraints imposed on him from above. In the end he got a green light to recommend me, and then another half a year went by. In the meantime, other people told me they had received authorization, and it drove me crazy.
"People tell me, 'What's the problem? Tell them you have cluster headaches. What, you don't know you have them? They're a terrific thing. There are no tests for it. You just say you have the symptoms that you read about on the Internet and try. They'll give you Voltaren, you'll take it a couple of times and then throw it away and say it doesn't help. Then you ask for medical cannabis.' So, do I have to lie to get proper medical treatment?"
This month, L. was informed that her request has been approved. That's good news for her, but many patients - including the other women interviewed for this article - are still waiting.
Sexual favors
An egregious by-product of the Health Ministry's confused policy is the involvement of people who exploit patients' distress for their own personal benefit. One of the people L. encountered while looking for someone to help her was a man who presented himself as a volunteer with the Health Ministry. The ministry says volunteers are an integral part of its work, but it's not clear what training they get, whether background checks are run on them and what medical secrets they have access to.
According to L., the volunteer told her he could help her get a speedy authorization, but he wanted a quid pro quo. "He told me, 'You will have to come here and we will have to interview you.' I asked him what he was talking about. 'I have a doctor,' I said, 'I have a recommendation, I have to know whether you can help me or not.' He replied, 'Yes. Maybe I will come to your place.' In short, I understood that things were heading in an unpleasant direction."
A tape recording of their conversation makes it clear that the unpleasant direction was heading toward sexual favors:
Volunteer: "Do you hear? Like I did with a woman friend of mine who suffered from depression ... I got her a permit, the good life, I pampered her."
L.: "But I don't like people to touch me."
Volunteer: "You like my work."
L.: "No, no, I don't. I don't like it when people touch me."
Volunteer: "It's not about getting laid. I told you already back then, I don't want to sleep with you."
L.: "I can't..."
Volunteer: "Whatever you like. You can smoke before, so you'll be in a good mood."
L.: "What does this have to do with it? There is an authorization that gets signed by the ministry, no? So what's the connection?"
Volunteer: "Fine, e-mail me your request."
A spokesperson for the Health Ministry said in response: "That man is no longer a volunteer with us. At this stage, the ministry's work [in the area of medical cannabis] is based on volunteers, because until late 2010 there was no budgeting for professional staff. In the 2011 budget we expect to receive budgetary allocations to hire manpower, but not for permanent positions. Volunteers will therefore continue to work in the ministry; volunteering is valuable as such for patients."
One big mess
"Many people ask me why I don't pretend to have a disease in order to get cannabis," D. says. "There may be some people who do that, but I don't want to. I am afraid as it is, because I am treating myself, albeit under medical supervision - my psychiatrist knows that I smoke [cannabis] and accepts it and understands the situation."
All the women who were interviewed for this article say that, at one stage or another, they were told they would have to wait for the results of an experiment being conducted by the Health Ministry to examine the effect of medical cannabis on PTSD patients; any information about the experiment is shrouded in mystery.
According to a psychiatrist who asked for anonymity, the experiment is problematic: "Patients were told that if they wanted authorization, they should take part in the study," he says. "But it is wrong and illegal to say anything like that. And then, after some had agreed to take part, they were told, 'Just a minute, we are still organizing a group. Wait. We'll let you know.' One big mess.
"Yehuda Baruch decided to do a study precisely on post-trauma patients. I say that it is a conflict of interest for the regulator to conduct a study. The situation now is that people can't get authorization until the study is completed, and it hasn't yet begun. In the meantime, people are left dangling, with no answer, and are suffering."
D. is left feeling despair about the situation: "At last we found something that helps, but we are not getting it," she says. "From their point of view, I guess it's preferable for us to be in a situation of 'Another second and I will kill myself,' than 'Things are good but I am a criminal.' To whom are women like me - who had such terrible things done to them by men - supposed to turn in order to get the medicine they need? To drug dealers! It's like going back into this circle of scary psychopathic men who, in a second, can change totally. It's going to criminals to get medicine. Totally absurd."

Gneiss – Lewisian
£1.50 ex VAT
Lewisian gneiss from Northwest Scotland, formed during the Pre-Cambrian period, making it among the oldest rocks in the UK, pushed to the surface during an oregenic event, Lewisian gneiss exhibits banded like most gneisses but is comprised of more dark, dense minerals, often igneous in origin. Specimens are available in 3 different sizes.
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock often formed from high grade regional metamorphism, usually from pre-existing rock (known as the country rock). As the metamorphic processes are high grade, the original rock could have either been sedimentary or igneous. One of the most identifiable features of gneiss are its alternating dark and light foliations, known as banding, which are known as gneissic banding and composed of various dark and light coloured minerals. The dark bands are often comprised of mafic minerals such as iron and pyroxenes where as the lighter coloured bands are felsic in chemical composition, often comprised of potassium, aluminium or silicate minerals. These particular gneiss rock samples are of the famous Lewisian gneiss from Scotland, they are believed to have been igneous in origin, determined due to the rock being much more darker than other gneisses we stock, such as the Norwegian variety. It forms part of the Lewisian complex, a collective of various Pre-Cambrian rocks, and among the oldest rocks in the United Kingdom. The gneiss, and much of the Lewisian rocks were at some point caught up in the Caledonian orogeny which occured between the Ordovician to Devonian periods approximately 490–390 million years ago, which pushed most of these Archaeic rocks upwards, as outcrops on the surface. They are available in various optional sizes and come supplied in a card tray with an information label.

American horror movie director Eli Roth listed his Los Angeles Tudor-style home on Friday for just under $3.5 million.
The three-bedroom, four-bathroom home dates to the 1920s, but Mr. Roth modernized the space while still keeping the classic architecture in mind, according to listing agent Darian Robin, the director of the Estates Division at the Agency.
"He created this compound for himself," said Ms. Robin, who sold the home to Mr. Roth as well as the previous owner. "The things he added to the house—the gym, the sauna, and he extended the terrace off the office—it just has become the perfect escape in the middle of the city."
One of the bedrooms has also been converted into a home theater lined with built-in bookshelves. Plus there's a pool and several stone terraces with built-in nooks for lounging, dining or enjoying views that reach from downtown to the Pacific Ocean.
"The home has a fabulous creative energy," Mr. Roth said in an email. "When I wasn't on location filming, once I was at home, I rarely left. I could sink into the theater to watch movies endlessly, work out in the gym, relax in the pool and spa, and there are countless spots to write or read."
Sitting on a double lot, the residence retains its classic Tudor timbering and interior elements like stone fireplaces and dark-wood flooring, Ms. Robin noted. It has a gated entrance and is above the street level to ensure privacy. Although it's "a stone's throw" from the Sunset Strip, the property is in a quiet area, she added.
In addition, there are French doors and oversized windows throughout, allowing for views from almost every room.
"It's also a great house for entertaining," according to Mr. Roth. "We had some legendary parties there back when that was allowed. It's a beautiful house and it was very good to me, and I hope those creative vibes pass on to whoever enjoys it next."
The main floor features a living room with a fireplace and built-in window seating, a formal dining room and a chef's kitchen with wine storage and a breakfast nook.
Private living areas include a primary bedroom suite with an office that extends to a private terrace, a dressing room and spacious bathroom that also has access to the outdoors. There are two additional bedroom suites.
Mr. Roth, 48, purchased the home in 2007 for about $2.5 million, according to property records. He is best known for directing the horror films "Cabin Fever" (2016) and "Hostel" (2005). He will be working abroad for the next few years, Ms. Robin noted.

主讲人:崔宜筠 博士
Dr. Ryna Yiyun Cui(崔宜筠) is an Assistant Research Scholar at the Center for Global Sustainability (CGS), University of Maryland. Dr. Cui is an expert in global coal transition and climate and energy policies in China. She leads the Global Coal Analysis and Policy for Decarbonization Project at CGS. As the China research lead, Dr. Cui also manages the development and implementation of CGS's China program portfolio. Her research focuses on climate change mitigation, sustainable energy transition, and global and national integrated assessment modeling of China, India and the United States. Before joining CGS, Dr. Cui worked at the Joint Global Change Research Institute, a collaboration between the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the University of Maryland. Her prior research has focused on long-term food security under climate change mitigation, international agriculture trade and food demand, integrated assessment of energy-food-water nexus, and international carbon markets. She holds a Ph.D. in Environmental Policy from University of Maryland, a Master's degree in Public Policy from the College of William and Mary, and a Bachelor's degree in Management Science and Engineering from Renmin University in Beijing.
A successful energy transition in China would contribute fundamentally and significantly to China's own development priorities and is also consistent with the long-term Paris climate goals. To support the global 1.5°C and 2°C goals, achieving deep decarbonization in power generation and moving away from conventional coal within the next 30 years or earlier will be an unprecedented challenge for China. This research details how such a high-ambition coal power phaseout in China can be achieved feasibly, balancing multiple important needs. The analysis combines bottom-up plant-level data and top-down long-term deep decarbonization scenarios from integrated assessment models (IAM) – GCAM-China and IPAC. It evaluates more than 1,000 existing Chinese coal-fired power plants (including nearly 3,000 individual units), through a five-dimensional framework of technical attributes, profitability, environmental impacts, grid stability, and equity. Coal plants retirement pathways were designed based on global 1.5°C and 2°C scenarios, retirement priority of individual plants, and specific policy designs for an appropriately paced, sustainable coal phaseout strategy in China. Results shows that it is feasible to achieve a 2°C and a 1.5°C compatible coal power phaseout in China by 2050 or earlier with relatively small economic impact. To do this, a three-principle strategy needs to be followed: no new coal plant construction, rapid shutdown of older and inefficient plants, and a shift of coal generation from baseload to peak load in China's power system.

I know, it's confusing. But here's my guide to what beauty PRs really mean in a simple "They say: They Mean" format.
"Thank you for replying." "You never normally reply to anything."
"Do let us know if there is anything we can help with." "Please never email us again."
"We're holding an exclusive event." "We're desperate and inviting anyone."
"We're really excited." "The client has told us to build excitement."
"We're sorry you feel you haven't been updated." "We're totally trying to shake you off our send-out list."
"We're wondering if you received our latest product?" "We are checking Ebay right now."
"Thanks so much for posting about our product; however, there is one tiny thing that needs rectifying… " "You incompetent blogger b*stard."
"Our client was wondering if you would kindly add a link to their site." "You've got free product, now you have to sell it for him, too."
"Our client LOVES your site…". "Our client has never heard of your site."
"There's a MASSIVE wait-list for this product." "There is no wait-list."
"This range was tested in space!" "We wish it had never come back to earth."
"The products are all hand-made!". "An imbecile and a Magimix could throw this stuff together."
