Travesties was born out of Tom Stoppard noting that in 1917, three of the 20th century's most crucial revolutionaries – James Joyce, Dadaism founder Tristan Tzara, and Lenin – were all living in Zurich. This resulting work won the 1974 Tony for Best Play.
The plot centres on the figure of Henry Carr, an elderly man who reminisces, quite wrongly, while working at the British Consulate, that he was pivotal in the events of all three lives. Henry's memories are seen through the prism (the original title of the piece) of Joyce writing Ulysses and both performing in Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest, over which a lawsuit is ensuing about the cost of trousers and tickets.
The audience are taken on a literary rollercoaster ride of head-spinning comedy, madcap musical turns and social commentary, involving deft footwork, swift changes and dialogue using various poetic and literary devices. The dialogue is delivered at a breakneck pace, requiring the audience to concentrate so as not to miss the next witty line. It's a tour de force which the ensemble takes on with brio, directed by Richard Baron who seems to be able to bring the best performances out of his talented ensemble, putting his own take on this complicated play. The show also has a stunning set, designed by Adrian Rees, which transforms from library into a typical Swiss drawing room with trick cuckoo clocks, and dance staging by Chicago choreographer Chris Stuart-Wilson.
The central character of Henry Carr, played with skill and panache by Mark Elstob, hardly leaves the stage with an opening monologue which must be all of fifteen minutes, including a clever transformation trick along the way. Riveting stuff.
The pace of the piece slows down when it comes to the Russian Revolution and Lenin played by Alan Steele who presents a wonderful image when the library desk turns into his famous train journey.
Lucie-Mae Sumner playing Cecily shows again her performance and dance skills with a comic striptease. Her duet with Camrie Palmer playing Gwendolen is a delight, demonstrating their vocal talents and comic acting abilities. Supporting players Helen Logan as Nadya, speaking in Russian I presume, and Carl Patrick, playing Bennett the lackey with aplomb, complement this fast-paced and wacky production.
In the end, the performance by Mark Elstob takes centre stage in this strong ensemble production that delivers an evening of literary delight.
Mary-Ann has had a very long and varied career in show business. Her professional journey has taken her from west end dancer and TV actress to air stewardess, business woman, secondary school teacher, cultural project officer, founding a site specific theatre company to award winning producer. Amazingly she still enjoys sitting in the stalls and enjoying a good show.

William Optics FLT98 – flattener test – part 1.
Notwithstanding the poor seeing and occasional clouds I wanted to try my new Lunt white light solar wedge.
This is a single shot with a William Optics FLT98 (cf), Televue 2x PowerMate, and Canon EOS 60D. ISO200, 1/2500sec. Processed in ImagesPlus and Paint Shop Pro.
Comet C/2009 P1 (Garradd), 2012-03-21.
After a visit to a local school (30 minute talks about Venus, Jupiter & Mars for 120 children and their parents) I returned to the observatory for an imaging session of comet Garradd. Skies were clear but a bit hazy, which became apparent when looking at the first photo's; bright stars with nice halo's. Garradd was passing by M81 and M82, so I used the 135m to frame both the comet and the galaxies.
I also tested the new Vixen Polarie star tracker. This very compact travel mount is shaped like a camera and runs on 2 x AA batteries or an USB power supply. A Manfrotto 410 geared head was used for mounting the Polarie and a Gitzo ballhead with Canon EOS 40D and EF 35/1.4mm was attached to the Polarie mounting block. I did a rough polar alignment by pointing the Polarie north and setting the correct latitude using the built-in tilt meter. Polaris could now be seen through the polar sight hole. No further polar alignment was done (a polar scope is optional). A 1m 45s test shot of Bootes does not show any trailing. Nice!
Shortly after purchasing the William Optics GT81 FD, the focuser started to slip when used with a camera or heavy eyepieces. Adjusting the tension fixed that problem at first, but over time it became worse. Time to start looking for a replacement focuser! I had upgraded my FLT98 with a FeatherTouch focuser a year ago, so the most obvious choice would be to contact Starlight Instruments to find out if an adapter was available for the GT81. Indeed, they had one that was compatible; Wayne informed me that the adapter for GSO/AT RC telescopes is the same thread as the GT81. So what focuser to get? I chose the new lightweight focuser FTF2020 BCR-LW and added a 3.75″ riser. The FTF2020 focuser has a shorter drawtube compared to the stock focuser and the body is shorter as well, so you need a riser to be able to reach focus. With the 3.75″ riser, a TV reducer and Canon EOS will reach focus. A 2″ mirror and eyepiece will reach focus as well. For prime focus photography you need to extend even more. Total weight of the GT81 with the 3.75″ riser and FTF2020 BCR-LW is only 2.2kg (4.85lbs)!


An explicit legal basis for online inspection of files was created. This step was necessary due to reasons of privacy and copyright. The German Patent and Trademark Office will offer online inspection of files in the cases of patents and utility models, presumably beginning from January 07th, 2014.
The deadline for the submission of the German translation of a patent application text initially filed in English or French will be extended to 12 months after filing date, however, not more than 15 months after priority date. If the applicant misses the submission of the translation in time, the application will be regarded as withdrawn. However, the Office can even request that the applicant has to submit a German translation of the patent application before the above-mentioned deadline under certain circumstances.
The content of the search report will be extended by a preliminary assessment of the possibility to protect the subject-matter of the application. Therefore, the applicant should get a better basis for a decision how to proceed. On the other hand, the workload at the German Patent and Trademark Office will increase due the production of the new search report. The law provides a suitable increase of the research fee by 50 EUR (now 300 EUR instead of 250 EUR) for compensation reasons. Associated with the extension of the search report, the right of a third party to request a search will be canceled. However, a third party can continue to request an examination. If the search is performed by a non-national institution, the applicant can request that the result of the search can also be used for the European patent application.
The deadline for filing an opposition against an issued patent will be extended from 3 months to 9 months.
If requested, the examining sections always have to conduct a hearing in the examination pro-ceedings in the future. Further, hearings in an opposition procedure will be always open to public. However, if protectable interests are in danger, the public can be excluded by request of one involved party.
If you have further questions regarding this topic, we will be happy to assist you.
As from November 2014, the EPO will enable applicants to request further searches in the European regional phase for international patent applications that are found to lack unity of invention.
Under the current practice, when an application enters the European regional phase and the EPO objects to the lack of unity of the invention (i.e., if, in the EPO's opinion, the application includes more than one invention), the EPO searches – according to Rule 164 of the European Patent Convention (EPC) only the claims for the (chronologically) first invention. However, the EPO does not allow the applicant to request additional searches. Thus, the further inventions can be protected only by filing divisional applications, even if the applicant does not intend to continue the procedure for the first invention.
Now, the EPO has announced by press release (http://www.epo.org/law-practice/legaltexts/ official-journal/ac-decisions/archive/20131014b.html) an amendment of said rule. The new rule will come into force on November 1, 2014 and will enable applicants to request additional searches in the European regional phase if the EPO objects to the lack of unity.
Under the amended Rule 164, the applicant will be given two months from receipt of a corresponding notification to request additional searches by paying a respective fee. The new provisions will apply to any case in which no EPO examination communication has been issued by November 1, 2014. In cases for which the EPO was not the International Searching Authority, the new provisions will apply if the supplementary European search report (SESR) is drawn up on 1 November 2014 or later.
Since also Rule 135 EPC was revised accordingly, in addition, further processing will be available for requests for further searches.
f you have any specific questions, please do not hesitate to contact us any time.
Important change from April 1, 2014: 24-month time limit for the filing of divisional applications shall be repealed!
On the EPO-website, the Administrative Council of the European Patent Office announced an important amendment concerning the rules for divisional applications.
With effect from April 1, 2014, a divisional application may be filed as long as the earlier application is still pending. Therefore, the existing 24-month time limit for the filing of divisional applications is repealed.
Where the two-year term for filing divisionals has already passed, applicants may have a further opportunity to file divisionals when their application is still pending on April 1, 2014.
However, since the original purpose of Rule 36 EPC was to reduce the number of divisional applications and it came clear that the rule did not have the desired effect, the amended regulations will introduce an additional fee growing progressively for each subsequent generation of divisional applications. This means that the filing of divisional applications based on antecedent divisional applications will be subject to an additional fee.
The precise details of the new fee is still to be published.
If you have any specific questions on this development, please contact us.

Get-rich-quick schemes and fad weight-loss diets are naturally popular because they satisfy the id while also attending to the super-ego. The ego's job is complete when it sees something like this. The appeal of "fast'' stems from the innate desire for instant gratification, so beware of what seems too good to be true (they often are) when you're looking to make money quickly. Be wary. Listen to the conversation deep within the confines of your mind and do your best to tame the proverbial beasts.
You get to hand-pick what you promote. Unlike display ad systems that typically choose which brands serve ads on your WordPress site, you have total control over this with Amazon affiliate links. You'll never have to worry about a competitor's link showing up on your site and the link will always be relevant to the content that it appears within or beside--which will improve its chances of getting clicked.
You could try advertising more, for example, by putting up signs around the neighborhood, posting about it on social media, or having people you know spread the word. You could also try doing it in a different neighborhood that might have friendlier people, or do it in a time and place where there's likely to be a lot of people walking around the area (e.g., near a church before the end of a mass).
There's something about an image that people are drawn to and that makes them click. I began to experiment with linking images to Amazon with my affiliate links, setting up a tracking code to test whether they converted. While they didn't convert as well as text links, they did convert in some instances and to this day I still use this technique most of the time.
Product Linking > Native Shopping Ads: Let's say you've written a review about a new hair product. If you want additional money-making opportunities from this despite only recommending a single product, you can add native shopping ads to the end of your content. Think of them like related post content, except it's a banner that promotes other Amazon products.
You may have noticed in my overview of the Amazon Associates site that I left out the mention of the plugin they built for WordPress. That's because the plugin doesn't work (at least not well). Luckily, the Amazon Auto Links plugin will simplify the process of finding new and relevant products to promote and creating affiliate links to them--all from within WordPress.
A browser extension is a plug-in that extends the functionality of a web browser. Some extensions are authored using web technologies such as HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. Most modern web browsers have a whole slew of third-party extensions available for download. In recent years, there has been a constant rise in the number of malicious browser extensions flooding the web. Malicious browser extensions will often appear to be legitimate as they seem to originate from vendor websites and come with glowing customer reviews.[32] In the case of affiliate marketing, these malicious extensions are often used to redirect a user's browser to send fake clicks to websites that are supposedly part of legitimate affiliate marketing programs. Typically, users are completely unaware this is happening other than their browser performance slowing down. Websites end up paying for fake traffic number, and users are unwitting participants in these ad schemes.
Armaan's approach is simplicity. He takes us through the Amazon Affiliate Program basics, then right into his strategies for content and backlinks. He could have stopped there - his methods are simple, down-to-earth, very common sense. But he added on seven tips on conversion that any reader, IM newbie or old hand, can use as valuable tools in their online business. Did I say this book is gold? Nix that..it is GREEN! Evergreen! Everybit as useful and up-to-date as the day he wrote it. Thank you Armaan. OH! I almost didn't mention the giveaway at the end!!
As someone who's been immersed in a number of online industries for quite some time, I know a thing or two about what it takes to succeed in this arena. However, just like you, I started at ground zero with little knowledge, but a great deal of passion. What I learned along the way were some invaluable lessons from failure that hurt at the time, but helped immensely in the grand scheme of things.
The one thing to be aware of with WordPress Amazon affiliate plugins is that you don't want to use one that offers link cloaking. This is a method used to protect affiliates from a threat known as affiliate link hijacking. However, Amazon expressly forbids the cloaking of their links, so you'll want to avoid plugins that do that or always be sure to disable that functionality if they give you the option.
There's no need to be intimidated by the cons noted above. Every affiliate program comes with them as does any working relationship you enter into with a well-known brand. Think of Amazon like Google: their top priority is keeping customers happy. Without their continued satisfaction, they wouldn't be in business and you wouldn't have an affiliate program to take advantage of, so they need to ensure you don't abuse the terms of use.
I do this because I want to build a solid reputation and a loyal readership of people who trust me. I'd rather make less money and still have a reader than make lots of money and never see the reader again. For me, this comes not only from my ethics but my belief that in the long term building a good profile and reputation leads to other opportunities for profit.
Deliver newspapers every morning if there's a route in your community. Find out if there are routes available in your area by contacting your local newspaper. Collect your bag of papers each morning and ride your bike from house to house to hand them out or have your parents drive you around. Most newspapers have to be delivered very early around 5 a.m. so be prepared to wake up at the crack of dawn.[14]
It has universal appeal. Unlike some types of marketing that work better for certain segments than others, affiliate marketing is really something that anyone can use on their WordPress site or e-commerce store. With millions of products available and categories covering a wide spectrum, you're bound to find more than enough products worth promoting.
Yep. I'm back again lol. Started making SOME money on my website – about $150 per month. I started in May, I write 3-5 posts PER day, sometimes more if I feel up to it, but I know with the 3-5 posts I am doing a lot more than a lot of others lol. However, in the beginning I DID link images to the amazon product. Then I just decided it was too much work (because it is when you do it manually), but I think I might make that change, starting this month and try it for another 4 months and see if it increases my income.

Q: How can I move my picture on the screen using a keypress? I'm currently writing a program that will display a house on a screen based on the size of the house, It will also detect 'A' 'S' 'W' 'D' key presses and breaks on the key press of esc. Now that I have gotten all of these functions working, as well as borrowing clear screen function. I would like to move this image that i have on the screen up and down. I know that I am very close, however I'm not sure how I should go about moving the picture. I would like the program to move to the right if the user presses "d", I'm assuming this would be like adding 1 to the x coordinate, and moving left by pressing "a" subtract one from x, and likewise for up and down, would be pressing "w" or "s" and adding or subtracting from the y value.

    hStdOut = GetStdHandle( STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE );
    if (hStdOut == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) return;
    /* Get the number of cells in the current buffer */
    if (!GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo( hStdOut, &csbi )) return;
    cellCount = csbi.dwSize.X *csbi.dwSize.Y;
    /* Fill the entire buffer with spaces */
    if (!FillConsoleOutputCharacter(

    /* Fill the entire buffer with the current colors and attributes */
    if (!FillConsoleOutputAttribute(
        hStdOut,csbi.wAttributes,cellCount,homeCoords,&count)) return;

    /* Move the cursor home */
    SetConsoleCursorPosition( hStdOut, homeCoords );
}

A: What is missing here, is the position at which you draw the house. Let's change the drawing function accordingly:
void draw(int h, int v, int j)
{
    cout << string(v, '\n');  //vertical offset
    string hs(h,' '); // prepare horizontal offset

    cout <<hs<< "  /";       // add horizontal offset at each start of line
    for (int c = 0; c<j; c++) {
        cout << "  ";
    }
    ...
}

Now moving just requires to change the horizontal and vertical offset.  So let's revise the function.  We will pass these two by reference so to change their value in the calling function:
void Move(int key, int& h, int& v, int housesize)
{
    if (key == 'a') {     // would worth considering tolower(key)
        if (h>1)
            h--;
    }
    else if (key == 's') {
        h++;             // is there a maximum (e.g. screensize - housewidth) ?
    }
    else if (key == 'd') {
        v++;
    }
    else if (key == 'w') {
        if (v>1)
            v--;
    }
}

Then finally, in main() you need to keep the horizontal and vertical offset, and use them in the redesigned functions:
int h = 0, v = 0;  // horizontal and vertical offset
...
while (1) {
    letter = getch();
    ...
    else if (number != 27) {
        Move(number, h, v, i);  // <=== just change position.  Will redraw later
    }
    ClearScreen();
    draw(h, v, i);              // draw at new position what ever happened
}

Hydatid disease (HD) is a cosmopolitan parasitosis caused by Echinococcus granulosus that can potentially affect any part of the human body. Liver and lungs are the most frequent localizations. Primary musculoskeletal hydatidosis are seldom reported in literature and their incidence is unknown.
We deem interesting to report a case of a primary hydatid cyst in a 25-year-old patient who presented with a painful swelling of the right elbow. Meticulous examination and preoperative imaging did not reveal other localizations. Patient was admitted for surgery where total excision of cyst was done without intraoperative spillage and a cutaneous skin flap was subsequently required to make up for soft tissue loss.
Primary hydatid cysts are sometimes difficult to diagnose preoperatively. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis of subcutaneous cystic lesions in regions where hydatid cysts are endemic. Currently, surgical excision is deemed first choice treatment for solitary cysts and antihelminthic treatment should be initiated preoperatively in the case of risk of rupture or in the event of complications.
Hydatid disease is an anthropozoonosis caused by Echinococcus species. Species mainly involved include granulosus, multilocularis and oligarthrus, with granulosus commonly responsible for cysts in predators such as dogs, wolves, and foxes as well as intermediate hosts such as sheep, goats, and cattle . Humans are a coincidental intermediate host. The disease is more frequent in the Middle East, Central Europe, Australia, South America and the Mediterranean basin, where livestock breeding is very rampant. Several strains of granulosus appears to be commonly found in North America, Morocco, Tunisia, Kenya, Kazakhstan, western China and Argentina.
Parasite larvae can develop in any part of the human body with the liver (68.8–80%) and lungs (10–22.4%), representing the most frequent localizations. Other rare localizations reported in literature include the spleen, peritoneum, skeleton, kidney, brain, cardiac muscle and even sub cutis [2, 3]. Subcutaneous hydatid cysts are secondary in nature, resulting from migration of larvae from a primary site after spontaneous or trauma-induced cyst rupture or could even be iatrogenic after release of parasite material during invasive treatment procedures. Primary musculoskeletal hydatid cysts are rare not to mention subcutaneous elbow hydatid cysts even in countries endemic to Echinococcus.
We hereby report a case of primary subcutaneous hydatid cyst of the elbow in a 25-year-old patient with a 3-year history of an incipient right elbow swelling.
The authors intend to highlight the pitfalls in the diagnosis and management of primary musculoskeletal hydatid cysts through a rare case report and a review of relevant literature.
A 25-year-old man, Middle Eastern origin, history of exposure to livestock was admitted to our unit complaining of a painful swelling of the right elbow. The swelling developed over 3 years and was associated with recent pain without fever or rigors, and pruritus. Anamnesis did not reveal any trauma to the elbow or prior medication.
He was afebrile on admission with good general conditions, and physical examination revealed a tender right lateral elbow mass with distension of overlying skin. Mass measured 4 cm by 6 cm and there were no signs of excoriations nor fistula (Fig. 1).
On day 3, patient became febrile with a temperature of 38.8 °C. Lab test demonstrated a normal total WBC count of 5.0 × 109 cells/L, eosinophil level of 158 cells/L, and a normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate of 15 mm/h. Liver function tests were unremarkable. Hydatid serology was negative and there was no modification in the appearance of the mass.
Plain elbow and chest radiographs were also unremarkable albeit diffuse soft tissue swelling of the elbow: there were no bone erosions nor calcifications. Ultrasound came back for a cystic lesion of the elbow with several floating membranes without color Doppler test. Magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) depicted a unilocular cyst with multiple septations giving it a multivesicular or rosette appearance, confined to the soft tissues, adjacent to the medial elbow muscles without infiltrating bone nor surrounding neurovascular structures (Figs. 2 and 3).
Patient was prepared for elective surgery with consent and antihelminthic therapy was initiated preoperatively for 5 days. En block surgical excision of the mass under general anesthesia was undertaken. Care was taken to remove the mass en block without perforating the cyst wall, through meticulous pericystectomy along surrounding muscle fibers (Fig. 4). The cyst was multivesicular containing daughter cysts and were filled with muddy substance typical of hydatid disease (Fig. 5). After excision, extensive washout of the surgical field was carried out. Wound could not be closed due to massive soft tissue loss (Fig. 6).
The operating field was covered with adequate dressing. Cutaneous skin flap was done subsequently with favorable outcome and no signs of local recurrence 2 years after surgery.
Hydatid disease is an anthropozoonosis caused by Echinococcus species; humans represent intermediate hosts in parasite life cycle when they occasionally ingest eggs through contaminated food or water [2, 3]. The shell of parasite eggs opens in the presence of upper gastrointestinal tract acidity. Oncospheres, so released in small bowel, penetrate the intestinal wall, and are carried out through portal circulation into the liver. Having made it pass the portal filter, they could potentially reach every organ with the lungs serving a secondary filter. A possible dissemination through lymphatic channels has also been reported [4, 5]. The majority of the hydatid cysts occur in the liver, the lungs, or both, but muscular and subcutaneous area is considered an unsuitable site for infestation.
Thus primary soft tissue involvement is very rare; causing a diagnostic challenge . It is widely postulated that the low prevalence of this form of the disease is potentially due to the physical barriers to the hematogenous dissemination of cysts created by hepatic sinusoids and pulmonary capillaries. In addition, it is widely believed that the higher lactic acid concentration in skeletal muscle and mechanical factors, such as contractions make encystment less likely. The most common musculoskeletal sites include pelvic, thigh, and paravertebral musculature . Another compatible hypothesis is one of a spontaneous resolution of primitive hepatic localization but with systemic diffusion of the parasite and positivity of serological exams [8–10].
Cysts may present in several ways, including a slow-growing lump with variable pain or sudden onset of symptoms due to cyst rupture. Rupture of cysts releases antigens into muscles thus causing an inflammatory response that may be complicated by secondary bacterial infection . More so, involvement of adjacent structures, such as blood vessels, may result in vascular insufficiency , whereas muscle infiltration may produce mechanical limitation of movements . Tuna et al.  reported a case of upper extremity hydatid cyst associated with peripheral neuropathy in relation to median nerve compression.
Diagnosis is based on clinical evidence such as anamnestic data pertaining to origin and history of exposure to livestock, presentation as well as radiological backing. Hydatid serology is often negative in 1 out of 2 cases of extra hepatic hydatid disease as was the case in our patient. Ultrasonography (USG) is a very useful diagnostic imaging tool for hydatid disease. Not only does it detect liver cysts but it also allows the classification and staging of liver hydatid disease [15, 16]. Nevertheless, we strongly believe the sensitivity of USG for floating membranes, daughter cysts, and hydatid sand in purely cystic lesions make it very ideal in the initial workup of even uncommon localizations. In general, MRI has a higher specificity and sensibility than ultrasound for hepatic hydatid cyst . It also allows a better characterization of anatomical relations and aids surgical management of cyst as was the case in our patient.
It is essential to establish definitive preoperative diagnosis of skeletal muscle hydatid cysts. This contraindicates certain treatment options like marginal excision or incisional biopsy due to the likelihood of dissemination and anaphylactic shock on spillage. Thursky et al.  reported a case of cyst rupture complicating the surgical drainage of an infected primary musculoskeletal hydatid cyst after previous fine needle aspiration. Pericystectomy remains treatment of choice in musculoskeletal hydatid cysts. Percutaneous aspiration, infusion of scolicidal agents like chlorhexidine gluconate, and reaspiration (PAIR), under imaging (ultrasound or CT) guidance can be used as alternative to surgery in inoperable cases.Ormeni et al.  reported percutaneous puncture with concomitant injection of ethanol and polidocanol in the cyst cavity as treatment for selected cases of primary muscle hydatidosis without recurrence. Regardless, the inherent risk of rupture and hydatid matter dissemination cannot be ruled out completely.
Supplementary chemotherapy with antihelminthics for skeletal muscle hydatid disease is controversial and currently no evidence provides sufficient backing on the benefit of its association with conservative treatment. Albendazole remains the gold standard drug administered in adjuvant therapy. Combination therapy with praziquantel has been reported in the treatment of inoperable hydatidosis . In cases affecting skeletal muscles where surgical excision is possible, the rationale of adjuvant chemotherapy is to reduce the risk of dissemination during surgery and to prevent recurrence . The inherent risk of dissemination of cyst during surgery due to its large size was a key factor in our indication of neoadjuvant therapy with albendazole.
This case of primary skeletal muscle hydatidosis illustrates the significant morbidity associated with hydatid disease. Preoperative diagnosis is important in the management of hydatid cyst. Pericystectomy potentially combined with neoadjuvant therapy could help reduce complications and recurrence in large hydatid cysts.

Top Israeli Covid Officials Spar Over Mandatory Vaccination
Gwen Ackerman
2:07 PM IST, 01 Dec 2021 8:59 PM IST, 01 Dec 2021 2:07 PM IST, 01 Dec 2021 8:59 PM IST, 01 Dec 2021
(Bloomberg) --
Top Israeli coronavirus officials took conflicting positions on the need to weigh mandatory inoculation in light of the omicron variant, with the unvaccinated accounting for a large percentage of the country's serious Covid cases.
"Mandatory vaccination needs to be considered, whether through legislation or otherwise, especially given the fact that not only is the pandemic here, but I fear it will get worse," coronavirus czar Salman Zarka said on 103FM radio.
He said he changed his mind following the appearance of the new variant, which has been identified in several Israelis. About 680,000 of Israel's 9.3 million people haven't been inoculated at all, Zarka said.
But Sharon Alroy-Preis, director of public health services, opposed mandatory jabs, adding that while the situation is worrying, it's not an emergency.
"We need to do everything we can in the health ministry to make the vaccinations accessible, to explain, to show the data," Alroy-Preis said in an interview on the Ynet website. "I don't think we need to mandate vaccinations."
A very small number of countries have made vaccines mandatory, though others have required it of federal workers. Israel has restricted incoming and outgoing travel since the emergence of the omicron strain.

Whether you're an active holidaymaker seeking your next challenge, or a self-confessed sun lounger devotee looking to try something a little different, Neilson's skippered Flotilla holidays will certainly fit the bill. No boating experience? No worries! Neilson's Flotilla holidays are suitable for complete beginners, and what's more, you can work towards achieving a sailing qualification!
Upon arrival at Neilson's Vounaki Beachclub, you'll be shown to your private yacht by your personal skipper (how fancy is that?!) before spending the evening at your leisure. The Beachclub provides the perfect location for a little exploring before your flotilla adventure begins. With the pretty shore side village of Paleros close by and the larger towns of Lefkas and Preveza are just a short bus ride away.
Joining you on board the following morning, your personal skipper will ensure you know your port side from starboard side and the aft from the forward before you launch into the cerulean waters of the Ionian Sea. They'll spend each day with you, not only ensuring you enjoy a unique holiday that's quite literally a breath of fresh air, but teaching you all the basic skills you'll need to work towards earning a qualification. Beginners can earn their Royal Yachting Association Level 2, whilst those with more sailing experience can strive for their International Certificate of Competence or Royal Yachting Association Day Skipper certificate.
At the end of each day, your skipper will leave you and join the lead crew boat, meaning you have time to truly enjoy your private yacht experience. Perfect for couples and groups of friends, skippered flotilla holidays are also great for families. Children can join in with learning the ropes, and those aged 16 and above can work toward their certificate too.

Master Biodiversity Hotspots in India [2022]
Biodiversity Hotspots in India are four in number. Across the world, 36 areas qualify as Biodiversity hotspots. They account for just 2.4% of Earth's land surface, but they hold up more than half of the world's plant species as endemics ( i.e., species found no place else) and nearly 43% of bird, mammal, reptile and amphibian species as endemics.

There are four biodiversity hotspots in India:
Indo-Burma
Sundalands
Western Ghats and Sri Lanka
To qualify as a Biodiversity Hotspot a region must meet these two strict criteria:
1. The place must have at least 1,500 vascular plants as endemic to it. Such a place must have a high percentage of plant life found nowhere else on the Earth. So a hotspot is an irreplaceable region.
2. It must have a surviving population of 30% or less of its original natural vegetation. Or we can say that it must be a threatened region.
Conservation International a pioneer in defining and promoting the concept of hotspots. Formed in 1989, just one year after scientist Norman Myers wrote the paper that introduced the hotspots concept, Conservation International adopted the idea of protecting these incredible locations.
Conservation International is an American NGO headquartered in Virginia. Formed in 1987, it strives to protect our environment by acknowledging Biodiversity Hotspots around the world.

Himalaya Hotspot consists entire Indian Himalayan region along that falling in Pakistan, Tibet, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Myanmar.
Himalaya Hotspot stretches in an arc over 3,000 km.
Himalaya Hotspot endowed with the world highest mountain includes all of the world mountain peaks that are higher than 8,000 meters counting Mt. Everest.
The Himalayan Mountains ranges from less than 500 m to more than 8,000 meters which creates a diversity of ecosystems that are:
It contains Alluvial grassland among the tallest in the world.
Subtropical broadleaf forests along the foothills
Temperate broadleaf forests in the mid-hills,
It has Mixed conifer and conifer forests in the higher ranges.
Himalayan Mountains ranges have Alpine meadows above the tree line.
Biogeographically the Himalayan Mountain Range lies between the Palearctic and Indo-Malayan realms. Species from both these realms exist in this hotspot.
Plants that make this area a Biodiversity Hotspot are
There are an estimated 10,000 species of plants in this hotspot with about 3,160 endemics.
The large scale family of flowering plants in this hotspot is the Orchidaceae having 750 species.
Five plant families that are endemic to Himalaya hotspot are
Tetracentraceae
Hamamelidaceae
Circaesteraceae
Butomaceae
Stachyuraceae.
The Himalaya Hotspot have a zone of permanent rock and ice that begins at about 5,500–6,000 meters. Despite these harsh climate, there is evidence of vascular plants occurring at some of the highest elevations on Earth.
32 Elephant Reserves in India Biodiversity hotspots in India
40 UNESCO World Heritage Sites India Critically Endangered Species in India
46 Ramsar sites in India Mangrove sites in India
52 Tiger reserves in India Vulture in India
The famous western Tragopan is found here, having plumage shades of blue, black, crimson and brown speckled with white. The male Tragopan shows off during courtship by erecting two blue horn-like feathers and inflating its purple throat.
In the upper reaches of the Himalaya Hotspot roams the solitary snow leopard whose favourite prey is the Ibex and bharal.
Hotspot Original Extent 2,373,057 km²
Geographical Extent
The Indo-Burma hotspot in tropical Asia positioned to the east of the Ganges Brahmaputra lowlands.
The Indo Burma hotspot also contains the Lower Mekong river catchment area.
It starts in eastern Bangladesh then extending across north-eastern India to the south of the Brahmaputra River.
It encompasses nearly all of Myanmar, parts of south and west Yunnan Province in China, the whole of Lao People's Democratic Republic, Cambodia and Vietnam, and a vast majority of Thailand and a small part in Peninsular Malaysia.
The Indo Burma hotspot includes the coastal lowlands of southern China with several offshore islands such as Hainan Island in the South China Sea and Andaman Islands of India in the Andaman Sea.
During Winters, dry and cool winds blow from the stable continental Asian high-pressure system that creates dry weather with clear skies across much of the south, centre, and west of the Indo Burma hotspot. It is known as the dry northeast monsoon.
As this continental system weakens during spring, wind direction reverses. So the southwest monsoon picks up moisture from the southwest seas and brings heavy rains.
Ecosystem Found Here
A wide diversity of ecosystems found in this hotspot includes
mixed wet evergreen
dry evergreen
montane forests
localized vegetation found in Indo-Burma hotspot includes
lowland floodplain swamps,
lowland wet evergreen forest
seasonally inundated grasslands.
The biological diversity in the Indo-Burma hotspot is a result of the interaction of topography, past climate changes, characteristics of soil, and the patterns of seasonal rainfall.
The hotspot contains many localized centres of endemism, in particular the montane isolates.
An estimate of total plant diversity in the Indo-Burma hotspot reveals about 13,500 species of vascular plants from which 7,000 (52%) are endemic.
Among other flora of the Indo-Burma Hotspot are wide varieties of orchid and ginger species. More than 1,000 orchid species found in Thailand alone and many other tropical hardwood trees, including commercially valuable dipterocarp species and teak (Tectona grandis).
Many of the species found here, but few have been rarely seen by human eyes like
Annamite muntjac
Grey-crowned crocias
The Sundaland hotspot encompasses the western half of the Indo-Malayan archipelago, is an arc of about 17,000 equatorial islands, dominated by two of the largest islands in the world: Borneo
725,000 km² and Sumatra 427,300 km².
More than a million years ago, the Sundaland islands, was connected to mainland Asia. As sea levels changed in the Pleistocene period, this connection disappeared slowly, eventually leading to the current isolation of these islands.
The topography of the Sundaland hotspot ranges from the mountainous terrain of Sumatra and Borneo, having Mt. Kinabalu with a height of 4,101 m, to the fertile volcanic soils of Java and Bali.
Granite and limestone mountains form the backbone of the Malay Peninsula.
Sundaland covers a small portion of southern Thailand; nearly all of Malaysia; Singapore at the tip of the Malay Peninsula; all of Brunei Darussalam; and all of the western half of Indonesia, including Kalimantan (the Indonesian portion of Borneo, Sumatra, Java, and Bali). The Nicobar Islands of India; are also included in the Sundaland Hotspot.
The Sundaland Hotspot is bordering three other hotspots.
The Indo-Burma Hotspot to its northwest marked by Kangar-Pattani Line that crosses the Thailand-Malaysia border.
Wallacea hotspot lies immediately to the east of the Sundaland Hotspot, separated by the famous Wallace Line,
The 7,100 islands of the Philippines Hotspot lie immediately to the northeast of Sundaland Hotspot.
Lowland rainforests are full of towering trees of the family Dipterocarpaceae.
Sandy and rocky coastlines harbour strands of beach forests, while muddy shores lined with mangrove forests, and the inland areas consist of peat swamp forests.
Higher elevated areas consist of forests thick with moss, lichens, and orchids, while further up on mountains, subalpine forests are dominated by rhododendrons.
At the tops of the highest mountain peaks, the land is rocky and without much vegetation.
Sundaland hotspot is one of the biologically rich hotspots on Earth, with about 25,000 species of vascular plants, among which 15,000 (60%) found nowhere else.
There are at least 117 endemic plant genera in this hotspot, 59 of these endemic genera found in Borneo that hosts a spectacular diversity of trees and 17 genera in Sumatra, 41 genera on the Malay Peninsula.
Notably, plants in the Sundaland hotspot is of the genus Rafflesia. One of these Rafflesia arnoldii flowers is the biggest on Earth that measures up to one meter in diameter.
The hotspot is home to iconic species found only in Borneo like
Orangutans,
Pig-tailed langurs,
Javan and Sumatran rhinos
Proboscis monkeys
Hotspot Original Extent 189,611 km²
The Western Ghats of southwestern India and the highlands of southwest Sri Lanka which are 400 kilometres apart are strikingly identical in their geology, climate and evolutionary history.
The Western Ghats / Sahyadri Hills formed by the Malabar Plains and the chain of mountains (30 to 50 kilometres inland) running parallel to India western coast.
The Western Ghats covers 160,000 km² area and stretch for 1,600 km from the southern tip of India to Gujarat in the north, interrupted only by the 30 km Palakkad Gap.
The Western Ghats impacts the rainfall pattern of peninsular India by intercepting the southwestern monsoon winds. The western slopes of these mountains experience heavy annual rainfall, 80% of which falls during the southwest monsoon period from June to September.
The eastern slopes of Western Ghats are drier, and the rainfall intensity decreases from south to north in the Western Ghats.
The wide variation in rainfall patterns of the Western Ghats coupled with the region complex geography generates a great variety of vegetation types. These include
Scrub forests in low lying rain shadow areas and plains
Deciduous and tropical rainforests up to about 1,500 m
unique Montane forests and rolling grasslands above 1,500 m.
Sri Lanka is a continental island separated from south India by 20 meters deep Palk Strait.
Rainfall across Sri Lanka depends on monsoonal winds. Most of the island experiences relatively low rainfall that is less than 2,000 millimetres per year except for the southwestern wet zone, where rainfall ranges to 5,000 millimetres per year.
Dry evergreen forests occupy almost all of the dry zone area.
Rainforests dominate the lowlands of the wet zone.
220 km² of tropical montane cloud forests exist in the central hills, which rises to a maximum altitude of 2,524 m.
A minimum of 6,000 vascular plant species occurs in the Western Ghats and Sri Lanka hotspot of which more than 3,000 are endemic (52%).
The Western Ghats harbours approx. 5,000 species of vascular plants belonging to nearly 2,200 genera among which 1,700 species (34%) are endemic.
The Agasthyamalai Hills In the Western Ghats at the extreme south harbours the highest levels of plant endemism and diversity at the species level.
Nearly 87% of the Western Ghat's flowering plants are to the south of the Palakkad Gap (37% is exclusive to this sub-region); these figures decrease to about 60% and 5%, respectively, in the Nilgiri Hills.
Some of the main plant species of Western Ghats include
Dipterocarpus
The only gymnosperm tree Podocarpus (Nageia) wallichianus, is also endemic
Of the 267 species of orchids found here, 130 are endemic.
Plant diversity and endemism in Sri Lanka are also very high.
About 3,210 flowering plant species are found in Sri Lanka, in which 916 species are endemic.
Diversity, richness, and endemism are much higher in the wet zone than in the dry areas of Sri Lanka. Indeed the wet zone that accounts for only a quarter of Sri Lanka territory contains 88% of the flowering plants occurring on the island and 95% of its angiosperm endemics.
The montane tropical rain forests here have a variety of animals like:
Black panthers,
Leopards.
lion-tailed macaques -who are in grave danger of going extinct,
Pig-nosed purple frog

We've entered the New Year, but before starting the spring semester, consider taking a moment to search for grants and other sponsored research opportunities. The Graduate Center Library provides access to several grants and funding databases.
1) Pivot bills itself as a tool providing "access to the most comprehensive source of funding opportunities globally." You have the option to create a profile, search by keyword (for example, "urban farming"), and save your searches for later (once logged in). The Profiles feature allows you to easily pull up information about individuals at different academic institutions, such as their website, list of research interests, and affiliations. Pivot uses its algorithm to identify possible funding sources for listed individuals, their department, and also for users who create their own Profile.
These databases are maintained through The Foundation Center, which aims to be "the leading source of information about philanthropy worldwide." The organization offers many digital resources as well as in-person availability: "anyone who lives, works or studies in the five boroughs of New York City is eligible to borrow from the Foundation Center library," and can also use their full suite of web-based resources on-site.
The Foundation Directory Online is designed to search through 20,000 large and mid-sized U.S. foundations and files for more than half-a-million grants. You could search by Grant Recipient, to see what types of funding has been awarded to similar organizations; by Company, to look through corporate offerings; or use their "Powersearch" feature for keyword-based searching.
Foundation Grants to Individuals Online helps to narrow the field, describing 8,300 programs that fund students, researchers, artists, and other seekers of individual grants. Across the various Foundation Center sites, you will find free webinars, subject-specific posts, research bibliographies, and even comic infographics, so be sure to explore the many options available (GrantCraft, GrantSpace, GlassPockets).
If you seek simplicity in your searching, try Grant Advisor Plus. It offers a searchable, up-to-date database of grants/fellowships, and a monthly newsletter that can be downloaded as a PDF from the site (unfortunately, there is no option to have it sent to your email). The focus is on Federally-based sources or long-established Foundations, so you will see many fewer results than with another search tool, and some prefer the website's less-cluttered interface.
Grant Forward offers up-to-date information about new and ongoing grant opportunities, with about 43% currently listed as Federal/State sources, and 26% from private foundations. It highlights the deadlines for grant applications, and you may search by due date as well. They also allow you to select by Applicant Type – Undergraduate, Graduate, Early Career Investigator, International – and save searches once logged in.
In addition to these sites, The Graduate Center Library has a comprehensive Research Guide devoted to this topic, which is worth exploring: (http://libguides.gc.cuny.edu/grants). At the top, be sure to click on the individual tabs: Research and Writing, Arts, Humanities, and Science Funding Sources.

text: define({name:"foo/second"});


This very interesting surname is believed to be of English-Welsh medieval origins, but it has said that even that simple statement is clouded with some doubt. It was once claimed that the name was a short form of the surname 'Fewster'. This derives from the pre 10th century, Old French 'fustier', meaning a 'saddle-tree maker', but at best this prognosis seems unlikely. The earliest church recordings show that 'Few', the modern spelling, is a progressive development of 'Fewe', itself from 'Phehewe'- see below. Although we habe no absolutely conclusive evidence, we believe that the original 'Phehew' is a dialectal form of the Welsh 'Ap Hugh' i.e The son of Hugh, which is also recorded as 'Phugh'. In support of these observations we include the following examples of the surname recording commencing with Anne Phehew, the daughter of Robert Phehew, christened at St Mary Magdalene, Bermondsey, on September 27th 1584, and Dorothie Pehew, who was probably the sister of Anne, christened at the same church on October 26th 1589. Later recordings are those of Joane Fewe who married Alexander Willes at St Dunstans in the East, Stepney, on January 15th 1603, Ana Few, daughter of Edmond Few, christened at the church known as St Botolphs Without, in London, on October 9th 1653. Finally we have Robert Phugh, son of Richard Phugh, christened at St Martins in the Field, Westminster, on March 30th 1685. The coat of arms granted in 1612 has the blazon of a blue field, a silver lion rampant armed and langued in red. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Thomas Phehewe, which was dated July 7th 1582, christened at St Mary Magdalene, Bermondsey, London, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I.
This is a locational surname of great antiquity. It derives from the Olde English pre 7th century 'flagge' and as such describes someone who lived by a 'paved road', a rare occurrence at the time. This suggests that as the art of road making by the laying of 'flagges' was totally lost after the Romans left England in the year 410 a.d., that the original name holders did in fact live near the remains of a Roman road. The earliest recording of the surname comes from Kent, and this again would seem to be further proof of the origin, as this region was full of Roman remains. It has been suggested that the name could apply to one who cut 'flagges' and this is also possible, if unproven. Early church recordings of the surname include Margery Flack, who married Richard Dickinson at the church of St Martin Orgar, London on July 12th 1542, in the reign of the infamous Henry V111, and Mary Flacke (or Flache), who married John Norris at the church of St Katherines by the Tower (of London), on September 15th 1678. A Dorothy Flack is recorded in the 'History of the County of Norfolk' (England) for the year 1715, and the name is also recorded in the early registers of the cities of Boston and Philadelphia, USA. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Robert del Flac, which was dated 1273, in the Hundred Rolls of the County of Kent,, during the reign of King Edward 1, known as 'The hammer of the Scots', 1272 - 1307. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.
This ancient surname is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and is from an ethnic name for someone from France, derived from the Middle English (1200 - 1500) "frennsee, frenche" a development of the Olde English pre 7th Century "frencisc", meaning french. In some cases it may originally have been more that a nickname for someone who adopted French airs. Irish bearers of the surname are said to be descended from Theophilus de Frensche, a Norman baron who accompanied William the Conqueror in 1066, a branch of whose descendants settled in County Wexford in circa 1300. Some of the same family settled in County Roscommon in circa 1620, this was the branch that produced Field marshal Sir John French (1852 - 1925), commander-in-chief of the British Expeditionary Forces in the First World WAr.
Over nineteen Coats of Arms were granted to French families; one granted to a family in Cranfield, Essex, is an azure shield, a gold bend, between two dolphins embowed gold, the Crest being a crescent per pale silver and gold, between the horns a fleur-de-lis counterchanged.
The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Simon le Frensch, which was dated 1273, in the "Hundred Rolls of Wiltshire", during the reign of King Edward I, known as "The Hammer of the Scots", 1272 - 1307.
