Last week, MFNERC wrapped up the Virtual Clinical Services Regional. The leadership, participants, and organizers celebrated it as a monumental success for the organization's newest department: Digital Learning Environment.
The Digital Learning Environment department has been a long time in the making, as MFNERC leadership has prioritized access to professional development due to First Nations' feedback. First Nations schools requested accessible professional development when lacking the travel budgets to send staff in person or when unable to release staff for PD due to staffing constraints.
MFNERC infrastructure for delivering virtual events was already being developed, planned, and tested. Due to the ongoing travel restrictions of COVID-19, MFNERC moved quickly to offer this ground-breaking virtual event space for the benefit of First Nations school staff and students.
The virtual event space allowed participants to attend the regional from the comfort of their office or home without the need to travel. Those attending could participate and ask questions anonymously. For the first time, participants accessed recordings of all available sessions, even ones conflicting timewise with the live sessions they attended. The sessions were specifically developed to accommodate First Nations by using bandwidth-friendly techniques. Presentations ran smoothly and included meaningful dialogue and downloadable resources and links as take-aways.
The Virtual Regional even continued the beloved Elder lunch hour tradition, where Elders spend time visiting and sharing with participants during lunch breaks. Together, the Digital Learning Environment and Clinical Services delivered everything that participants loved about attending conferences in person, while making it safe and more accessible.
Congratulations to the newest department, along with the Clinical Services staff, for an exceptional event. Miigwech to all who planned, implemented, and attended the Virtual Regional; the first of many! Keep an eye out for future online PD at MFNERC!

A few hours back, Shah Rukh Khan, along with his kids AbRam and Aryan, were at the Mumbai airport, apparently headed for Kolkata to watch his team Kolkata Knight Riders take on Mumbai Indians at the ongoing Indian Premiere league.
The match is important for SRK's team as it will decide which team (KKR or Mumbai Indians) will go ahead in the tournament.
We first saw Aryan arriving at the airport with a bunch of friends as he walked towards the check-in counter. A few minutes later, SRK walked in with AbRam and followed Aryan inside the terminal.
Dressed in a white t-shirt and casual cargo pants, Shah Rukh looked like the perfect father while holding the adorable AbRam in his arms.
It wasn't just their colour-coordinated outfits, but also the similar hairstyles, that made it look as if they were actually twinning!
[ecp code="4″]
But sometime later, all the three came out from another terminal and looked quite upset. While it is not known what exactly transpired inside, but probably they missed their flight to Kolkata.
Later, on seeing paparazzi outside, SRK obliged the shutterbugs with a few clicks.
KKR will be playing against Mumbai Indians and the match is scheduled for tonight at 8 pm at Eden Gardens. It is a crucial match as it will decide which team – KKR or MI will be going ahead in the tournament. As of now, KKR is positioned second with 16 points, while MI occupies the top position with 18 points in standings.

Tracy arrived at the emergency department past midnight on a cold, rainy September night. She was in bad shape.
Tracy's woes started four months earlier when she developed pregnancy complications at 13 weeks. She started spotting one evening and went to see a doctor at the nearby hospital. She was examined and her cervix was found closed. The doctor, however, took note that her uterine size felt like she was already 16 weeks pregnant. She was put on progesterone supplementation and asked to come back the next morning for an ultrasound scan to assess the well-being of the pregnancy.
She was back at the same hospital at five in the morning with crampy, abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. The doctor diagnosed her with an inevitable miscarriage and sent her to theatre for evacuation of the uterus, so as to stop the bleeding. By nine o'clock, she was back in her house having breakfast.
She mourned the loss of her pregnancy as any first time mother would, but she picked herself up and tried to move on. However, three weeks later, while at her office desk, she started bleeding. She assumed her periods were back, but when the bleeding got very heavy and the crampy, abdominal pain persisted, she went to a hospital near her office. The doctor ordered for an ultrasound that showed that her uterus still had remnants of her previous pregnancy, hence the bleeding. She was taken back to theatre for a repeat evacuation of the uterus and went home thinking that she was fine.
By the time she came to us, Tracy had undergone uterine evacuation five times without a proper diagnosis. With the history she provided, the heavy bleeding and anaemia, an ultrasound scan was urgently ordered, along with a blood test measuring her pregnancy hormone level. The scan showed she still had remnants of a pregnancy and multiple cysts in her ovaries.
Tracy was wheeled to the operating room for the sixth time for evacuation. A sample of the tissue drawn was taken to the lab and she was transfused four units of blood. She survived the ordeal, but the journey had just began.
The test results confirmed Tracy had choriocarcinoma. Her miscarriage had metamorphosed into pregnancy cancer! Even more distressing was that it was a high grade type. Tracy was confused, and rightfully so. She had never heard of such a thing. There was no time to wait. She needed immediate commencement of cancer treatment.
The complex dynamics that result in a normal pregnancy are extremely intricate. Very small errors in the ovum or in the sperm genetic material results in catastrophic outcomes. Choriocarcinoma belongs to a group of pregnancy-related complications termed Gestational Trophoblastic Disease. These conditions vary in severity and not all of them become cancerous.
The origin of these abnormalities is in the chromosomes of the ovum and sperm that form the pregnancy. The ovum may have no chromosome and the sperm has double the amount of chromosomes it should have. Alternatively, the ovum may be fertilised by two sperms.
The resultant pregnancy ends up with partial or complete absence of development of a foetus, but the placental part develops and is abnormal. Since the pregnancy is incompatible with life, the woman miscarries spontaneously. The placental tissue coming out is abnormal and looks like a bunch of grapes.
After the miscarriage, the abnormal placenta may persist and keeps regrowing, effectively becoming cancerous. While majority of the choriocarcinoma cases follow a miscarriage, a few may result from a normal pregnancy and even rarer, following an ectopic pregnancy.
As the abnormal tissue is placenta, it will manufacture the pregnancy hormone, human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG). The larger the volume of abnormal placenta in the body, the higher the levels of the hCG hormone. This cancerous placenta spreads quite quickly outside the womb to the pelvic organs, lungs, liver and even to the brain.
Tracy was started on chemotherapy with close monitoring. We had high hopes that she would do well. She would come for her chemotherapy cycle every three weeks until all the monitoring parameters returned to normal. Thereafter, she would do an extra three cycles for good measure.
The treatment wasn't kind to her slight frame. She would go through the harrowing nausea and vomiting especially on the first two days of the cycle. She lost her glorious mane of hair by the third cycle and learnt to spot the bald look bravely. On two occasions, she needed blood transfusion to keep her strong enough to tolerate the onslaught of the next round and once, she needed an extremely expensive shot to boost her white blood cells to levels high enough to permit safe administration of the drugs.
Tracy received a total of eight cycles before we were satisfied with her progress. She was sad that despite completing her treatment, she would still not be permitted to conceive for a further one year to allow for effective monitoring of the condition to ensure there were no relapses. She had to take contraceptive pills to prevent pregnancy.
The hCG hormone levels would be used for effective monitoring of her progress and would be expected to remain undetected at all times. This would then mean that in the event she got pregnant, the hCG hormone levels would rise and we would not be able to tell if this was a result of a normal pregnancy or a relapse of the cancer.
Tracy went on to do well and eventually managed to fulfil her longing to be a mother. She was dutifully monitored for the first year after delivery to ensure the choriocarcinoma did not recur. She will always carry a high risk of the monster creeping back unannounced, but for now, she is braving the motherhood experience like a champion.

Four men fleeing in a car after killing a lawyer in a village were intercepted and beaten to death by people of a village 40 km from Muzaffarnagar town in UP.
Police suspect they were a gang of hired killers.
They were fleeing after shooting lawyer Sanjiv Malik in Kheri Gani village in Budhana Tehsil, a villager said.
Malik's father said he and his 35-year-old son were heading for their fields to work when they spotted a car parked on the road. "The driver said the vehicle had a snag. My son offered to call a mechanic but they refused. When my son turned to return, three men in their mid 20s shot him thrice in the head. The driver and the three fled in the car," Satbir said.
Villagers alerted people of adjoining villages to intercept the car heading for the main road.
A villager, Charan Singh, said people gave chase to the car and more joined in. "About 3 km from the spot, villagers of Lusana parked a tractor across the road. The assailants stopped the car and ran into sugarcane fields. They fired a few shots at villagers but were overpowered and beaten to death," he added.
The villagers set fire to the car.
Police took the four to hospital, where doctors declared them dead.
Police said Malik's murder appeared to be the fallout of rivalry. The lawyer had been practising at Budhana city court for 5-6 years now. He was former secretary of Budhana Bar Council Association.
The villagers feared reprisals if any of the four 'killers' was from adjoining Muslim-dominated villages of Husaainpur and Mohammadpur. By afternoon, none of the village heads could identify the four and police removed security personnel deployed in the village.
Vijay Singh, Station House Officer, Phugana police station, said, "We have not been able to identity the four. They are not from this area. We recovered a pistol and three country made pistols. It looks like they were contract killers from outside the region."

Everyday traffic is joined by new cars, running on expensive imported fuel and cluttering already overcrowded cities, which suffer from infrastructure bottlenecks and intense air pollution. This situation demands a transportation revolution in the country and electric mobility will be at the centre of it.

(CNN) -- Ten medical aid volunteers were killed in one Afghanistan attack in August. In July, a 78-year-old French humanitarian worker was executed along the Mali-Mauritanian border after some three months in captivity.
In Darfur, Sudan, two kidnapped German relief personnel were held captive for more than a month before their release in July. Another aid worker, an American woman, was taken three months ago in Darfur and is still being held hostage.
Aid workers have been ambushed, bombed, assassinated or taken hostage in growing numbers worldwide. Attacks and killings from attacks have risen over the last several years.
The majority of victims are local employees of aid organizations, who work to help their own people, U.N. and humanitarian officials say.
According to the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, 102 relief workers were killed in 2009, up from 30 a decade earlier. The year 2008 was a grim milestone -- 122 aid workers were killed, the most in one year.
Dr. Abby Stoddard, a partner at Humanitarian Outcomes, which monitors security issues in the world's relief community, told CNN: "There have been more aid worker attacks, but there have been more aid workers deployed, too.
"We have documented a 60 percent rise in such attacks between 2005 and 2009 per every 10,000 aid workers."
Another reason aid groups are vulnerable is that they often do not use armed escorts. The point is to be perceived -- without question -- as a non-combatant. But sometimes that doesn't matter.
On August 19, 2003, the U.N. headquarters in Baghdad was destroyed by a truck bomb, leaving 22 dead, including Secretary-General Kofi Annan's chief envoy in Iraq at the time, Sergio Vieira de Mello. Scores more were injured.
The U.N. designated August 19 as World Humanitarian Day in 2008 to honor those who perished in the Baghdad bombing and for the continuing sacrifice of the global aid community.

"It seems that the blue flag of the U.N. is no longer the shield of protection it used to be," Michael Bociurkiw, with the U.N. Children's Fund (UNICEF), said via cell phone from Maseru, Lesotho, where UNICEF is fighting malnutrition, poverty, HIV/AIDS and other diseases.
"It's as if the Baghdad bombing marked our loss of innocence -- that it was the start of a kind of open season on aid workers," the 46-year-old Canadian said. "The recent killing of the aid workers in northern Afghanistan was really horrific and shocked the entire aid community to the core."
No one understands that better than Dirk Frans, the Dutch national who leads the International Assistance Mission in Afghanistan -- the group that had 10 of its own slain on August 5 in the northern province of Badakhshan. That group included six Americans, a Briton, a German and two Afghans.
"It was an isolated, opportunistic attack," he told CNN from Kabul, Afghanistan's capital. "This group was in the wrong place at the wrong time."
Frans, 56, added: "Unfortunately, we are reducing our exposure in Badakhshan by not working in that area for now."
This hit on a point brought up by Stoddard: "When there is violence against aid workers, those who need the aid don't get it."
Stories like these don't deter Lisa Browne, an American project coordinator with the Johanniter-International Assistance medical group in Darfur, Sudan -- her third aid posting in Africa.
For more than two years she has lived and worked in Ed al Fursan, a remote section of South Darfur.
"I generally enjoy it here. I'm basically comfortable," Browne, 29, told CNN from Nyala, Darfur. "Staff safety and security is a general concern for all humanitarian actors in South Darfur, including (Sudanese) governmental partners."
She added: "If I was asked to take another position here, I would do it again, no questions asked."
Another aid worker, Marcus Prior, 41, with the U.N.'s World Food Programme (WFP), spoke to CNN via phone from WFP's offices in Islamabad, Pakistan's capital, where he was getting a quick break from working in the flooded Swat Valley.
The WFP offices in Islamabad were breached in October 2009 when a suicide bomber detonated a device inside the building, killing five.
"Places like Somalia and (the Democratic Republic of the) Congo have been particularly dicey at times," he said. "I remember on one of my very first aid missions to Somalia, being rushed into our office because there was an unidentified gunman in the vicinity.
"And then crossing the front lines outside Goma in eastern Congo, with flak jacket and helmet on, was also nerve racking. It felt like old-fashioned warfare, with two sides peering at each other from trenches across a no-man's land."
A Somali working with WFP in Somalia, who asked to remain anonymous, said via email: "For many people, including my family, the thought of working in Somalia, and Mogadishu in particular, is extraordinarily dangerous.
"Everyone who cares about me knows of a humanitarian worker killed, injured or abducted in the line of duty in Somalia."
He added: "The scale of disaster and human suffering I see daily and the value of my work gives me more reasons to stay than to leave."
John Holmes, the U.N. under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator, told CNN he thinks there is a "particular brand of ideology" proliferating in the world that identifies "all foreigners" as enemies.
"We are perceived as having some sort of political agenda, which is not true," he said from New York. "We are solely there to help people in need. We are operating purely on the basis of that need."
And that perception can sometimes be misperceived, especially in the case of Afghanistan, where U.S. military personnel comprise much of what are known as provincial reconstruction teams, or PRTs -- effectively working as an outreach unit to help develop areas outside Kabul. And while their purpose is to help locals, they are dressed in military uniforms and often carry weapons.
Stoddard said that in countries where the U.S. is one of the "belligerents" involved in conflict, such as in Afghanistan, a confusing message can go out to locals about aid workers.
"The PRTs have been a difficult aspect for the aid community to deal with ... much of the aid community feels this blurs the lines of aid work and military action, and further endangers the aid community."
Holmes said aid groups had to maintain strict neutrality and added a plea to captors of humanitarians worldwide currently holding them hostage.
"I would very strongly appeal to these armed groups -- whether they are Taliban or al Shabaab or whatever -- to release them immediately," he said.
But in reality, little can be done to keep combatants from targeting aid workers. According to Stoddard, a total of 45 aid workers have been killed so far in 2010, another 47 have been kidnapped.

They say to never work with animals or children, but this was not the case for staff at Grendon Underwood Primary School in Buckinghamshire, who saw this recipe when I contacted them with regards to our website.
I knew this particular school had a cooking club from previous work experience I had done for them. So I phoned and asked if they would be interested in following one of my recipes and take a look at our website which they kindly agreed to do.
I spoke to the cooking club organiser as well pupils who took part in the club, Mrs Shirley, the cooking club teacher said: "We saw this recipe and thought it was easy enough for school children of all ages and abilities in my club to make. They had great fun and the result was both great tasting and it smelled wonderful too. I am certainly going to keep an eye on this site''.
It is nice to see that our website has been used by a local school and one of its recipes has been used in a cooking club.
Pupils at the school voiced their views below:
A year one child said: ''It was really easy to follow the recipe and it tastes lovely and sweet. We ate it last night!''
A year two child said: "I loved the mashing the best it was really messy."
A year one child said: "Mum wants to make this again it was really tasty."
I would like to give a special thanks to the staff and children at Grendon Underwood Primary School, who kindly took part in baking one of my recipes and kindly submitted the pictures seen above.

Chocolate ganache is a rich chocolate sauce that can be a filling or a frosting. It's perfect for everything from truffles to cakes to chocolate brownies.
Although no one does chocolate ganache quite like a French patisserie, it is also quite simple to make at home.
Ganache, which looks and tastes as elegant as it sounds, is made by the simple process of introducing finely chopped chocolate to very warm cream, waiting a few minutes for the chocolate to melt, and then stirring until it blends together and you can no longer resist licking the spoon.
Whether you want to make a thick ganache (think: the filling for a truffle) or thin and silky (think: drizzled over a pound cake) — you'll need to understand two things: proportion and temperature.
Chocolate Ganache Proportions
The chocolate ganache that you roll into truffles calls for the same ingredients — and almost the same process — as the ganache you use to glaze your cakes.
The important difference between the two is the proportion of cream to chocolate.
Glazes and icings will require a thinner consistency, or a higher percentage of cream. A thicker glaze for frosting or for rolling into truffles needs to be stiffer, so the chocolate percentage is higher.
Based on weight and a 1:1 ratio (or four ounces chocolate to four ounces cream), these are the proportions for various types of chocolate ganache:
- Layer cake filling and thick glaze: 1:1, equal parts chocolate and cream.
- Chocolate truffles: 2:1, two parts chocolate to one part cream.
- Soft icing and pourable glaze: 1:2, one part chocolate to two parts cream.
Chocolate Ganache Temperature and Timing
When you heat the cream on the stovetop, you don't need to let it reach a boil, but you want it to become hot enough to melt the chocolate (or in this case, Nutella).
Chop your chocolate, or in the case of Nutella, add it a spoonful at a time so that it melts easily.
It's important too, that you use your ganache while it's at the right temperature for whatever you're making.
A still-warm ganache will pour easily over a cake and form a glaze. If it's too warm, though, it may be too loose and if it's too cool, it will be too stiff to pour.
At the end of the day, this one requires some judgment call.
Keep an eye on your ganache and be ready to use it in the appropriate window.
If it has cooled and stiffened too much, you can always reheat it over a double-boiler or in a bowl atop a pot of simmering water until it reaches the proper consistency.
This ganache is the perfect consistency for glazing a cake, drizzling over your favorite chocolate brownie recipe or for taking your vanilla ice cream to the next level.
If you've never made ganache before, aim for the glaze consistency. You can always heat it back up if it becomes too thick, but if it's too runny it's harder to fix.
- ¾ cup Nutella Hazelnut Spread (about half a jar)
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1 tablespoon brandy (optional)
- Place the nutella into a medium bowl. Heat the cream in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil and pour over the nutella. Whisk until smooth. Stir in the sea salt and brandy, if desired.
- Let the ganache to cool slightly before pouring over a cake, cupcakes or ice cream. If you're using it to top a cake, start at the center and work outward.
Shop the Recipe!
If you are planning to make chocolate Nutella ganache, you may need the following supplies:
A great sauce pan
I like this All-Clad D3 Tri-Ply Stainless-Steel Saucepan. It's oven-safe, dishwasher-safe, super versatile for cooking, baking and chocolate Nutella ganache making.
A double boiler
Sticking with the All-Clad theme, the All-Clad Copper Core Double Boiler is not inexpensive, but it will become a staple in your kitchen forever. It's the ultimate double-boiler trifecta with the heat-conducting properties of copper, the beauty and easy care of stainless steel, and a porcelain insert that transfers heat slowly and gently.
A high-quality whisk
Every kitchen needs a good set of whisks. If you want to go big, grab this trio from Williams-Sonoma, or start with a solo whisk that will suit your needs just fine.

New use for Medley Centre to be announced Tuesday
More than eight years after the Medley Centre closed its doors, there's a plan to breathe new life into the long vacant mall in Irondequoit.
Businessman Angelo Ingrassia, who bought the property in 2016, will unveil those redevelopment plans on Tuesday morning.
Irondequoit Town Supervisor Dave Seeley said Monday that he's been briefed on the concept but doesn't want to say anything publicly before the formal announcement takes place.
But he's certain it's something residents will be excited about.
"They'll get to see the concept [Tuesday]," Seeley said. "It's important to be able to visualize the property being redeveloped and what it might look like. It will allow people to envision how things will change. It has been the same for so long."
Seeley says the the vacant mall hasn't just carried an economic cost for the town but a psychological one.
"It's hard to quantify but the impact has been extreme," he said. "It has been linked to our identity for the past several years, a black cloud that overshadows all of the other great things about Irondequoit."
The 900,000-square-foot complex opened in 1990 as the Irondequoit Mall, but a decade later it was struggling. By the time Adam Bersin purchased the property in 2005, it was roughly 70 percent vacant. He re-branded the mall as Medley Centre but was unable to reverse the slide.
Two years later Bersin sold to Syracuse developer Scott Congel, who announced ambitious plans for a high-rise hotel, condominiums, and a movie theater complex.
None of that materialized, even after Congel kicked the remaining tenants out in 2009. A pair of anchor stores — Macy's and Sears — eventually left as well.
Amid a flurry of lawsuits against Congel, the property was put on the block at a sheriff's auction in January 2016. Ingrassia was the only bidder.
At the time, Ingrassia also assumed responsibility for $44 million in debt owed to Nomura Credit and Capital by Bersin Properties LLC.

"Getting Congel out of there was the first step, " Seeley said. "He was 1,000 miles away and had no regard for the people here. The best thing about Angelo Ingrassia is that he cares about the town. It's important to him."
Ingrassia was well-known for years as the owner of Irondequoit Dodge, appearing in ubiquitous television commercials with his partner Vinny Pellegrino. More recently. he's developed a series of projects in Irondequoit, including the Tops Plaza and an LA Fitness center on East Ridge Road.
Seeley said he believes Ingrassia did "exhaustive research" to determine what would be the most appropriate and reasonable way to reuse the property. He cautioned against the community setting its hopes too high.
"Over the last 18 months, I've heard a lot of recommendations about what people think would be best there," he said. "A lot of people want it to be a mall again, but given how the world works, that's just not feasible. Malls aren't opening anymore, they're closing and retail has really gone away."

Des Moines officials say any expansion of the NCAA basketball tournament would neither hurt or help in their efforts to make Wells Fargo Arena a future site. There is the possibility that the tournament may expand from 65 to 96 teams.
Greg Edwards is president of the Greater Des Moines Convention and Visitors Bureau and he says any expansion would add two more days and more teams to each site. Edwards says one of their challenges is getting enough hotels with room blocks for the teams, as he says the NCAA is particular about having each team stay in similar hotels.
Edwards says the next time Des Moines is expected to make a bid is 2011. He says they've been trying to win a bid since the work started on Wells Fargo Arena. Edwards says NCAA officials tell them to keep trying.
Edwards says the sites are awarded a few years before they actually host a regional. He says it's about a two year in advance cycle for the tournaments. Edwards says the next time Des Moines could be named a site would be in the summer of 2011.

Hard work? Not at all, but very time-consuming. Concentrating is also very important.
Last weekend my son and I worked on an order of 100 raspberry pi boards.
Visit the business blog for more information.
We made 10 bundles halfway on Saturday, 10 on Sunday.
Tuesday evening we finished all 20 off, ready to go to be soldered on Wednesday!
They still need to be tested before they can be sent to the customer.
We did a great job!

Marking the start of the third month of the Occupy movement's work in lower Manhattan I feel like I have finally had enough time to process through everything that has been going on to share a few thoughts and one frustration. Let start by saying that I believe this is a thoughtful group of people with important things to say.
My Frustration
First the frustration. There has been widespread attempts to marginalize this movement of people. This has been done by attempting to hijack their slogans (We are the 99%, etc.) and calling them to get jobs. Those who have marginalized this movement have – more than likely – avoided interacting with their very clear core complaint. This also includes all of the spin-off advertising (Jay-Z…) and attempts to redirect the frustration into other pursuits.
Engaging the Movement
I do believe that they OWS movement is raising a valid social critique. According to many of the metrics used to track the economy we have left the recession that we were in for a number of years. The financial sector has bounced back, and yet this growth has not been experienced by those outside of the markets (read as most of Americans). This, as I understand it, is the precepts for the movement's beginning. Why have the majority of the american people taken the brunt of the recession that one can easily argue was caused by a few people (who are doing better than ever).
The only other point I will make here has to do with structuralism in american society. Most people live unaware of the invisible networks and systems that inform their propensity to succeed in life. The way the game of life has been setup in america has certain rules, and by birth and good fortune some find themselves in situations to succeed more than most of their peers. I do not say this to imply that those guided to success should feel guilt for their good fortune, but if they stay unaware that these structures exist to ensure their success it becomes abusive to the majority who live without the same opportunity.
OWS and Myself
I write all this understanding full well that I am one of those who has been given more than the average american in terms of opportunities (emotional, scholastic, relational, fiscal, gender, race, etc). Most people don't have the resources or connections to start a software company, get my masters degree in divinity, or to have the freedom in life to dream the dreams that my wife and I do for our future (they are audacious dreams, i know). But I believe I hear OWS asking those living the high life to accept these advantages, and then to accept their civic responsibility to help the next generation to be lifted up. My hope is that who I am becoming, and what I do will help to elevate those around me, and those whom I may never meet. As a Christian, and a member of society I believe this is my responsibility. That for me to love and serve God means to love and serve my neighbors with whatever I may or may not have.
Other Issues
I have not spent time here talking about social issues like amendment rights to expression, speech, assembly that have obviously been violated all over the country. America has always had the freedom of speech, it is just that for the first time the ability to speak and be heard is free. Maybe in the future I will write about these, though there are many other more qualified than me on this front.

Enjoy Celebrity Radio's The Garden Restaurant Review Four Seasons New York….
The Garden @ the world famous Four Seasons Hotel New York is open for Breakfast & Lunch.
This elegant spacious restaurant offers fine dining by Chef John Johnson.
The food is in keeping with the standards of the Four Seasons Hotel – very elegant, perfectly presented with a sense of decadence.
The service is predictably second to none.
The lunch menu is refined and offers fresh fish, meat and salads as you would expect. The standard of presentation & quality is unsurprisingly exceptional.
I personally loved the Tartare Yellowfin Tuna which the highlight of my meal. Beautifully fresh, superbly presented and a pleasure to eat. So cleverly put together with delightful flavours.
The Organic Chicken Cobb Salad with Grilled Applewood Bacon, Light Buttermilk Dressing & Fresh Herbs was the epitome of the perfect lunch salad:
I highly recommend the Wagyu Hanger Steak with Warm Spinach Salad &Crispy Onions. The smell was divine and the most flavoursome steak I've tasted in some time.

Project site blessed by reverend as new McLaren hospital progress continues
An estimated 2,500 construction jobs will be created in the development of the new McLaren Greater Lansing campus.
The project site at McLaren Greater Lansing's new $450 million hospital is a bustling work zone, but a group of workers took pause to join a local priest in a blessing for the hospital, the people building it, and all those who will walk through its doors.
"Some people who come to the hospital in an ambulance will be having the worst day of their lives," said the Rev. Michael Murray of St. Martha's Parish as he began his blessing in front of the construction site. "We're going to pray for them and their protection."
An estimated 2,500 construction jobs will be created in the development of the health care campus, and the safety of those working on the site was a focus of the prayers offered at the blessing ceremony. "They're building a place of healing, and that's God's work," said Murray. "Let them go home safely every night with their hearts filled with joy."
Murray prayed for those providing care for patients at the hospital, asking that their compassion and skill be used to heal patients. "This hospital is going to be a very important piece of Mid-Michigan," said Murray. "The best of humanity is represented by the doctors and staff."

Growing up in Ilford, Essex, 18-year-old Ellie Goldstein always wanted to be famous. "I love lots of attention," she tells Vogue over email. Now, thanks to starring in a special new editorial for Gucci Beauty in partnership with Vogue Italia, all eyes are finally focusing on her.
The result of an Instagram scouting project, the editorial centres around the idea of authenticity. Shot by London-based photographer David PD Hyde, Goldstein can be seen smiling and wearing the brand's buildable Mascara L'Obscur. "I designed L'Obscur mascara for an authentic person who uses makeup to tell their story of freedom, in their way," says Gucci's creative director Alessandro Michele.
Despite being diagnosed with Down's syndrome at birth, Goldstein has never let her condition get in the way of living her life. After deciding she wanted to be a model, she signed to Zebedee Management at 15 years old, an agency committed to representing 'models with disabilities and alternative appearances'—something Goldstein is keen to uphold. Here, she shares her story.
Growing up, who was your beauty icon?
"My beauty icon was Marilyn Monroe; my mum has books about the Hollywood stars."
How would you describe your relationship with beauty?
"[It] is wonderful. I really enjoy makeup. I use it lightly as I think it's nicer on me, as I have a pale complexion. My earliest beauty memory is when my sister Amy used to put makeup on me when I was two years old [and] she was 10."
How did you get into modelling?
"I got into [it] when I was 15 years old. My mum found out about Zebedee Management and we decided to join them. The best part of modelling is showing myself off to everyone. I love to be in front of the camera and show how professional I am."
Zebedee is committed to representing models with disabilities and alternative appearances. Why is this so important to you?
"Representation is very important to me—let the world see that anyone can model and act with a disability."
Can you tell us a bit about your experience with Down's syndrome?
"I haven't had any bad experiences having Down's syndrome. I think it's because of my personality. The only challenge I have faced was maybe people signing to me and talking to my mum instead of me, until realising that I can communicate and that I am just like them, maybe just slower at learning some things."
How did you overcome that?
"By being myself. Once people realise I can talk and have a great character, they are different towards me and they smile. There needs to be more positivity out there and people should give us a chance and not be so ignorant."
How does it feel to star in the new Gucci campaign?
"It feels so amazing and fabulous to be part of the Gucci Beauty campaign. I feel so proud of myself, especially to have been chosen for this. When I look at the images, I feel happy with myself, and all the likes and comments on social media across the world have been overwhelming."
You're viewed as a role model by many. Do you feel a responsibility towards your fans?
"I enjoy being a role model. It shows that if you follow your hopes and dreams, you can achieve anything."
What advice would you give to those who don't feel confident in themselves?
"Be yourself and don't worry about what other people think of you."
When do you feel most beautiful?
"I always feel beautiful but especially when I'm in the media, offered modelling work and wearing lovely makeup."
Aside from modelling, what else are you interested in?
"I love to do drama and dance, and love reading and learning new scripts."
What are your hopes for the future?
"My hope as a model is to become famous one day. My dream job [is to] be on the front cover of Vogue and work for other big brands. My hopes and dreams are to show the world who I am and what I can achieve."

Civil Rights
Block on Trump's Asylum Ban Upheld by Supreme Court
The Mega Millions jackpot hit a record-breaking $540 million on Thursday morning, and has been confirmed as the largest jackpot in history. The number is expected to grow even more before Friday, when the multistate lottery will draw the winning numbers.
As lottery fever overtakes the nation, you might have noticed a growing number of office lottery pools. If you trust your co-workers, tossing in a few bucks may seem like a great idea. But remember, even trusted individuals can become a little sketchy when large amounts of money are at stake.
As such, you need to protect yourself should you enter an office lottery pool. Here are the top three ways you can do that.
1. Write it down. Create a document -- for each office lottery pool -- stating who contributed money and how much. Have everyone write down their name or signature, so that it can't later be called a forgery. Simple documents like these will stand up in court, according to legal scholar Jeffrey Toobin.
2. Photocopy it. A recent Mega Millions suit out of New Jersey could have been prevented if the individuals involved had each obtained a photocopy of the group tickets. The individual who purchased the tickets said he purchased two -- one for him, one for the group. He then claimed the ticket he bought for himself was the winner.
3. Check the law. Make sure the lottery is legal in your state. A number of states have outlawed lotteries and games of chance. Some state judges won't enforce contracts that pertain to illegal activity -- including lottery. You'll be forever angered if you can't collect the money you're owed.
If members of your office lottery pool object to any of the above, let them know the measures ensure that everyone is protected. If they still object, you probably shouldn't trust them anyway.

Moving from Zimbabwe to England as a child had caused our writer to reflect on the complications in understanding nationality.
It was only recently that I learnt the word 'diaspora', describing a body of people who have dispersed from their country of origin to live in multiple different places, meaning that I have unwittingly been part of one for half of my life.
Growing up in a different country to the one in which you currently live creates a very unique set of experiences. There is no simple answer to the question, 'where are you from?'. This might come with a complicated relationship with your accent, whether it is strikingly unusual, or whether it has evolved into something more conventional. Either way, it feels like it doesn't fit - either with the voices around you, or with your personal history and self-conception. A certain desperation for the once-familiar leads you to have in-depth conversations with people you would never otherwise speak to, about politics you still don't entirely understand and about places that have become sepia-toned in memory.
Having lived a multi-national life means that the constructed nature of nationality shows the scaffolding propping it up, provoking questions that are impossible to answer
This August marks the ten-year anniversary of my family's move from Zimbabwe, 7,800 miles north to Stamford, a small town near Peterborough. Such a drastic change, in culture and in climate, was an absurd shock as a ten-year-old, but as time passes, my prior life becomes increasingly hazy. As memories become more like half-remembered dreams, so too does the concept of nationality itself, though bureaucratic forms simplify it to a drop-down list of options. Having lived a multi-national life means that the constructed nature of nationality shows the scaffolding propping it up, provoking questions that are impossible to answer.
Legally, nationality is defined by citizenship. Where is it that you are recognised as a citizen? What colour is your passport? Such a definition allows for minimal nuance, giving dual nationality to a select number of people but refusing to acknowledge the diverse potential of those who have criss-crossed the globe. I have always held a British passport, since my mother is British, but my birth certificate was issued by Zimbabwean authorities in Bulawayo. Different pieces of paper tell small parts of the whole truth, but bouncers and airport officials always quirk an inquisitive eyebrow at the place of birth registered on my passport and driver's licence.
Perhaps nationality is determined by your family history. Children often divide their identities into fractions, working out their heritage down to eighths and sixteenths. However, this too is overly simplistic, particularly for families with histories of immigration. Zimbabwe, previously known as Southern Rhodesia after the colonialist Cecil Rhodes, was a British colony, and my grandparents who moved there in the 1950s were Scottish and English, during a time when the country was still under white-minority rule. You cannot have a conversation about Zimbabwe without mentioning this colonial history, particularly when you are white, and therefore one small cog in the mammoth bulldozer of British imperialism. Though Zimbabwe is, technically, independent, the aftershocks of colonialism are still felt today in the language, culture, and power structures in the country.
If I were to fully claim an identity as a white second-generation Zimbabwean... it would necessarily include questions of empire, power, and complicity that are almost unanswerable
My grandparents' children were all born in Rhodesia, before it officially gained independence as Zimbabwe in 1980, so are they then Rhodesian or Zimbabwean? And since those aunts and uncles diverged to live in different places across the globe, are they now Swiss, British, New Zealanders? I had always thought that my position in the second generation of my family to be born in Zimbabwe was fairly uncomplicated. But as I grew older and more aware of Zimbabwe's colonial history (something, unsurprisingly, that my primary education there and secondary education here never covered), it became more complex. If I were to fully claim an identity as a white second-generation Zimbabwean, which would erase the last ten years of my life, it would necessarily include questions of empire, power, and complicity that are almost unanswerable. The tangled ends of nationality are no sooner unravelled than another potential answer leaves them coiled into themselves again.
The question mutates into wondering whether nationality is something you are born with, or something you become. Many countries require a process of 'indigenisation' before you can achieve citizenship, which is curious. Transplanting people into a new place does not magically endow them with the traits and traditions understood to belong to the native people, and there is a great deal of work which goes into becoming socially indigenous, regardless of your legal status. This can be magnified by various degrees of difference; if, like me, you are white, have a British mother, and speak English as your first language, the process is automatically far smoother, even if the it takes the edges off your Zimbabwean accent and allows you to blend in. But there are still complications with the concept of indigenisation. How long does it take to become indigenised? Can nationality be fragmented into fractions by the length of time spent in one place? I am twenty, and I have spent half of my life in Zimbabwe and half in England. If proportions are an adequate way to determine nationality, I have been mostly Zimbabwean up until now, but soon the balance will start to tip the other way.
I will always be sentimental about my Zimbabwean childhood, spent running around wild kopjes and avoiding deadly snakes
People often ask me "Where do you prefer?" This primarily implies a choice, but implicitly, an connection with one place that is somehow stronger or deeper to the other. If you have paid attention to the news from Zimbabwe for any length of time, at a more political level than the shooting of Cecil the lion, you will be aware that it is a challenging place to live, to say the least. On the most basic level, living in England offers some stability which the turbulent political situation in Zimbabwe could not. This is largely why between 500,000 and 4 million people have migrated from the country in the last ten years (Harare's International Organisation for Migration office cannot be more specific about the figures).
The question of preference is particularly difficult when the life stages passed in each country are so vastly different; being a child of primary school age in one place and moving through secondary school to university in the other hardly allows for a fair comparison. In any case, preference in relation to nationality holds little sway in any realm other than the emotional. I will always be sentimental about my Zimbabwean childhood, spent running around wild kopjes and avoiding deadly snakes, but census forms and curious acquaintances aren't interested in the nuances of nostalgia. When people ask me in those moments of small talk about Zimbabwe if I'll ever go back, I'll say yes – it's an immensely important, if largely invisible, part of who I am. - varsity.co.uk

Join Gab (@StFerdinandIII) Western Civilisation was and is superior to anything Islam has developed. Islam has not aided in the development of the modern world; in fact civilisation has only been created in spite of Islam. Raising the alarm about the fascism called Submission since 2000.
Supremacist broadcasts funded by the tax payer, most of whom would not offer a single shilling to any organisation to broadcast Moslem hate speech and supremacism. But Al Beeb is not just a public broadcasting outfit. It views itself as the intelligence-inter-primus, the arbiter of 'British Values', which now include supine, abject, humiliating prostration to a 7th century moon cult.
The usual array of idiots will moan that the BBC already broadcasts Christian worship services. Given that the legacy, culture, development and brilliance of British history is dependent on its Christian origins, this makes sense.
Broadcasting Moslem supremacism and equating the retarding effects of Muhammadism with the flowering effects of Christianity is asinine. Moslem rape gangs parade up and down the country for 20 years and the BBC had nothing to say. Now that mosques are thankfully closed and hate speech volume is for the time being turned off, the BBC must leap to the defence of its fascist pets and ensure that the supremacist message of the Muhammadans is blasted into the ether.
BBC blasts out local Moslem prayers
"…..every Friday at 5:50am, a different imam will lead the broadcast, reciting a verse from the Quran or a saying from the 'Prophet' Muhammad, then translate it and talk about its relevance, followed by a minute of prayer.
"Local radio is all about connecting communities, and we hope these weekly reflections will go some way to helping Muslims feel a sense of community while they are isolating," said Chris Burns, the head of BBC Local Radio.
The British government ordered all places of worship closed on 23 March as part of its measures aimed at curbing the spread of the coronavirus.
Days before the announcement, more than 375 mosques and prayer facilities suspended congregational activities, according to the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB).
"Safeguarding all of our communities is paramount, and it's reassuring so many mosques and prayer facilities have heeded this advice in trying their best to minimise the spread of the coronavirus," Harun Khan, secretary general of the MCB, said last month.
Many of Britain's mosques hold thousands of worshippers at a time, including the East London Mosque, which has capacity for 7,000, London Central Mosque with more than 5,000 and Birmingham Central Mosque, which regularly hosts 2,500 worshippers or more for weekly Friday prayer services.
Several mosques and Muslim communities have tried fill the void of the closure by using virtual means to engage in spiritual practices, though the lack of physical connection has been hard to replace.
Still, the impact of the closure will be even more impactful during the holy month of Ramadan, which is set to begin in the third week of April.
Harry Farley, a journalist with BBC Radio 4, responded to criticism of the announcement by pointing out that the BBC already broadcasts Christian services every Sunday.
"And to those complaining about/questioning this, just a reminder that a Christian service is broadcast each Sunday at 8am on all 39 BBC local radio stations," he tweeted.
Thanks, witless Harry. Cultures are not equal. Muhammadism is not a faith nor a religion.

Pallavi Taywade, Student of M.I.T. Pune, Civil Structural Engineering;
Santosh Shejwal, Sr. Engineer at Tata Blue Scope Steels Pune.
Façade Engineering is the art of resolving aesthetic, environmental and structural issues to achieve the enclosure of habitable space. Today lightness and transparency are properties that both architects and clients try to obtain. This has rapidly increased the use of glass in facades. By using steel as a load bearing structure, it is possible to keep the transparency restricting structures slim.
The aim of this master's thesis is to gather together information on research, design and codes about the structural design in steel-glass facades. The use of glass in facades causes many problems due to the material properties of glass. Glass differs from other building materials in aspect of being an extremely brittle material and breaking without a forewarning.
This material property of brittleness has to be taken into account when designing large glass facades. The requirements of designing load-bearing structures are normally gotten from either the glass supplier or the producer of glass pane elements, who both are thereby responsible for the strength and functionality of the fastening.
Façade is a French origin word meaning the front face. The use of glass in the exterior facades provided more of light and good ambience to the occupant of the building which gave rise to the increasing use of glass. For the architectural point of view the use of glass gave aesthetic view to the building itself.
A structure supported by aluminum frame work which is made up of Mullion and Transom is called as a curtain wall. Mullion is a vertical support or we may call it as a column, while the transom is a horizontal support likely to a beam. The first curtain walls were made with steel mullions, and the plate glass was attached to the mullions with asbestos or fiber glass modified glazing compound.
Curtain wall meaning a set of aluminum profile like Mullion, Transom, Glass panel.
Figure: 1.1 Parts of Unitized System
There are three types of curtain wall
1.1 Stick System
1.2 Unit Panel System (Unitized)
1.3 Unit Mullion System (Semi unitized)
Above three we used the unit panel system which is also called as unitized system.
This system comes pre-assembled; it can be pre-glazed at the factory or shop, or glazed on-site. As such, it minimizes field labor and erection costs, and promises a shorter installation period than the stick system. Quality control issues can be significantly reduced in terms of site labor, especially with pre-glazed units, but assembly at the plant and transportation (due to bulk) increases its cost.
Another disadvantage to pre-assembly is any site changes become difficult to accommodate. Assembly must be carried out in a specific sequence to ensure a proper fit. In a unitized system, the manufacturer must rely on qualified installers to ensure that the air seals are properly installed between the split mullions. Nevertheless, the unitized system is the most popular façade system according to on manufacturer and it has performed satisfactorily when installed correctly.
Figure: 1.2 E-Type Unitized System
Male Mullion and Female Mullion combine forms the unitized systems.

Figure: 1.5 Unitized Curtain Wall Panel.
The Curtain Wall is designed to resist and handle all the imposed loads on it as well as keep air and water from penetrating in the building. The loads imposed on the curtain wall are transferred to the building structure through structural interface (i.e. brackets) which attaches the mullions to the building. The curtain wall is designed for the following Loads.
1.Dead Load
2.Wind Load
Applicable Standard Codes
IS 875-1987 (Part -1 Dead Loads) Indian Standard Code of Practice for Design
IS 875-1987 (Part -3 Wind Loads) Indian Standard Code of Practice for Design
IS 8147-1976 Indian Standard Code of Practice for use Aluminum alloys
IS 800-1984 Indian Standard Code of Practice for general construction in steel
Software's used for Analysis & Design:
STAAD Pro V8i (For Structural Analysis)
Typical Mullion Analysis
Figure: 1.6 UDL Due to Wind Load
Max Span (L) = 3.65m
Max Cross Span (S) = 1.05m
Number of transom per unit = 2
Max BM = 4.02 kN/m
Deflection Calculation of Mullion
Max Deflection = 6.11mm ….. From STAAD PRO
Permissible Deflection (Lesser) = Span/175 = 20.86mm or 19mm
Therefore Max deflection = 19.00mm

Permissible bearing Stress (6063 T6) = 139 N/mm2
1. Glass has become a major element in designing modern commercial or public buildings. Load-bearing structures are wanted to be delicate systems with a transparent feel.
2. The use of steel in load-bearing structures improves the transparency of facades because it has been possible to keep the load-bearing structure slender.
3. The main aspect in designing steel and glass joints is to consider the special material properties and behavior of glass.
4. Glass fractures brittle without a forewarning. These properties and behavior concern normal float glass as well as laminated glass and safety glass.

Nearly one-third of American adults, if alive during the Holocaust, would refuse to shelter a Jew from the Nazis, a recent poll found.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the poll was conducted as part of a unique marketing ploy to promote the digital release of Return to the Hiding Place which tells the story of a group of Christians who hid Jews during World War II.
Peter Spencer, who directed and co-produced the film, got the idea for the poll after one of its stars, John Rhys-Davies, asked interviewers during a promotional appearance if they would have risked their lives to shelter Jews.
"It's a moral dilemma that we've never had to face, but you know those kids did, and their families did, and a lot of them lost their lives because of it," Rhys-Davies told the co-hosts of the Hallmark's Channel Home & Family program.
Barna Research conducted the poll, asking 1,000 Americans to "think back to World War II when Jews in Europe were forced into concentration camps and many were killed by the Nazis."
Respondents were then asked: "If you were living in this time period, would you have risked the possible imprisonment and death of yourself and your family to hide Jews?"
Sixty-nine percent said they would agree to risk their lives to hide Jews, while 31 percent said they would not.
According to an analysis of the data, males were more likely than females to shelter Jews, as were married people and homosexuals over singles and heterosexuals, respectively.
In addition, religious people were more likely to answer yes than secular people, as were Southerners over those from the Northeast.

When it comes to your big day, you want to make sure everything looks perfect, including your skin. For those who are looking for something natural for their skin or are looking to find the perfect travel-friendly products for their destination wedding, Naples Soap Company has just begun a natural skincare line stocked full of great options.
The natural skincare line includes a variety of different products, from sea salt scrubs to body oils and to lip scrubs, all made with natural ingredients and available in different scents. Some products from the line include:
Sunkissed Sea Salt Scrub ($28) With a warm coconut and vanilla musk scent, this natural exfoliant leaves you with polished, smooth skin. The invigorating scrub gently buffs away dull, dead skin cells, while conditioning elements, such as shea butter and natural oils, replenish dehydrated skin and leave your body soft and irresistibly touchable!
Pink Grapefruit Body Oil ($18) Featuring the zesty freshness of juicy grapefruit, this lightweight oil provides deep hydration for the body while being dry to the touch so brides can avoid any fabric stains or marks.
Sangria Lip Scrub ($8) Rich and pampering, this lip scrub gently exfoliates and hydrates lips. Organic cane sugar whisks away flaky, dry skin and locks in moisture while avocado oil provides long-lasting hydration, leaving lips supple, smooth and ready for the big kiss.
Naples Soap Company offers quality natural products that actually work! The founder and CEO, Deanna Wallin, struggled with eczema and psoriasis, but never found products that worked for her, so she made her own solution. By using natural products, she saw amazing results and started the company to give users natural products for all skin issues or to just enjoy.
Many of the products by the company are perfect for travel as well. Instead of settling for a small 3.4 oz bottle, you can choose to bring shampoo and conditioner in soap bar form from the Naples Soap Company that will last you fifty or more washes. This is perfect for those destination wedding brides who don't want to settle for anything less than what they need!

The iPhone 11 is pretty easy to review: it's the best overall phone today. Against all the competitors, and even other iPhones, the iPhone 11 stands out with some of the best all-around features. Even Android users may be surprised how easy it is to jump ship, and the camera alone is worth it if you're a photographer.
There's a bit of magic in the iPhone 11, or else Apple just makes a seriously tough phone. Or maybe it's both.
When I'm travelling, I usually bring a lot of gear with me. There's my DSLR, an action camera, and usually a couple of phones because I'm working on reviews. For my vacation to Disney World this year though, I decided I was going to try and carry less, so I just brought the Apple iPhone 11 with me many days, and it was frankly one of the best decisions of the trip.
Enter to win a Mophie Juice Pack, the first certified battery extender for the Apple iPhone 3G.
With a slim design, and lots of extra power to let you talk, surf, and email, the Mophoe Juice Pack 3G will become your new best friend for your iPhone.

Reneé Elise Goldsberry is stunned at how "Hamilton" keeps paying career dividends. Five years after winning a Tony for starring in the hit Broadway musical, the filmed version is now a major contender at the Emmys — with Goldsberry among the nominees.
"Sometimes I wake up and pinch myself," Goldsberry says of her Emmy nomination in the supporting actress in a limited or anthology series or movie category for "Hamilton." Despite having three chances at landing a nomination, she says she never saw it coming. But in this episode of the Awards Circuit Podcast, Goldsberry calls it a "gift from God." Listen below!
Goldsberry, who originated the "Hamilton" role of Angelica Schuyler on Broadway, wasn't just surprised about her nomination. "Hamilton" received an astounding 12 nominations from the Television Academy: Lin-Manuel Miranda and Leslie Odom Jr. earned nods in the lead actor in a limited or anthology series or movie category for their performances as Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, respectively; other nods included editing, sound mixing and tech directing.
"It's just because of the amount of time it had been since it came out and I just didn't think anybody remembered or cared," she admits.
While Goldsberry says she's thrilled that the show has been preserved and captured for audiences to enjoy for years to come, she would have liked to have seen the film have a theatrical release as planned. But the COVID-19 pandemic had other plans, and the film instead moved to Disney Plus, where quarantined viewers were able to watch it last July.
"Something was more important, giving art into the summer of 2020 was a beautiful thing to do," she says. "I literally get choked up when I think about how special it is to allow us to have another opportunity to come together and just hug each other and celebrate something that we're so truly proud of."
"Hamilton" continues to resonate, and Goldsberry says she continues to hear from new fans – of all ages.
"A friend texted me and it's a little Black girl who is full on dressed up as Angelica Schuyler, and she is embracing this television. There's an image on the TV singing 'Satisfied' and there's a closeup of me," Goldsberry says. "It felt like being a Disney princess that different little girls and boys could see themselves in. Even with the corset on, there was something there that they could identify with and, and that probably hit me the strongest."
Recalling her greatest anxiety while performing, Goldsberry says it wasn't the "Satisfied" rap. It's the ending of the song where Alexander Hamilton and Eliza, along with the cast are frozen on stage, and Angelica has given up the love of her life to her sister.
"They start moving on, kissing and going off into the sunset and I am standing there alone on a stage," she says. "It used to be really hard to make sound. After emotionally experiencing that moment – I had to sing the loudest and the highest. It was the highest pitched emotionally as well. I used to be concerned that sound wouldn't come." She says that if she could make it to that point of the show, she could chill out and enjoy the rest of it. If she ever writes her autobiography, Goldsberry jokes that it will be called "After Satisfied."
Post-"Hamilton," Goldsberry has been on a career trajectory. She's one of the stars of "Girls5Eva," and also upcoming has the "She-Hulk" TV series and "What If?" from fellow Emmy nominee Billy Porter.
Also on this episode of the Awards Circuit Podcast, Variety co-editor-in-chief Cynthia Littleton joins Michael Schneider, Jazz Tangcay and Danielle Turchiano to discuss this year's Emmy nominations in the key drama acting categories and talk about her Variety cover story featuring Stephen Colbert.
Variety's Emmy edition of the "Awards Circuit" podcast is hosted by Michael Schneider, Jazz Tangcay and Danielle Turchiano and is your one-stop listen for lively conversations about the best in television. Each week during Emmy season, "Awards Circuit" features interviews with top TV talent and creatives; discussions and debates about awards races and industry headlines; and much, much more.

Adapted from a Smitten Kitchen recipe and a Just Bento recipe
Once again, Eilene is having friends over. I decided I would make chicken teriyaki and rice. I wanted to make a side dish, but it was too late to make pickles. I have been making blended soups lately, so I thought I would make a carrot soup with an Asian twist.
