James B. Castles was truly a 'Steward of the West.' His legal career is well known to business lawyers. The memoir by John Castles in the December OSB Bulletin highlights Jim Castles' outstanding charitable work which is less well known. He was especially interested in supporting educational enterprises. Some years ago I invited him to tour the museum above the Willamette Falls in Oregon City operated by the Clackamas County Historical Society. After viewing the exhibits he called me and said that he believed good museums are truly educational institutions. Since that time the Murdock Trust has supported various educational projects at the Museum.
Jim Castles was also open to change. For some years because of a misunderstanding he did not want the Murdock Trust to support the Boy Scouts organization. At a CLE in Kalispell I had a chance to talk to him about the problem. He listened to my viewpoint as a long time supporter and beneficiary of Scouting. The next year the Murdock Trust started helping with some Scout projects.
The Office of the Legislative Counsel is pleased that practitioners will have available to them whatever versions of the statutes are most useful. Some readers may find West's research links worth having to flip to pocket parts to find amendments to laws. Others may prefer to support Oregon's 50-year tradition of providing the full text of statutes at cost. Purchasers of West's product should be aware that they put that tradition at risk. If enough people buy West's statutes, Oregon won't have enough money to put out the ORS. Oregon's independent revision and publication of statutes protects the public from the much higher prices charged in states where West is the sole source of statutes.
We are pleased that Ms. Midkiff found parts of the official ORS index better than West's and other parts equal to West's. We are aware, however, that some readers find the official ORS index to be less useful than they would like. We are building a new indexing system and readers should see marked improvement beginning with the 2005 ORS.
The office offers specialty publications, such as the Criminal Code of Oregon and the annotated Oregon Family Law Code, that are less expensive alternatives to purchasing single volumes of the ORS. Information about these products is available at www.lc.state.or.us.
West is not 'making its annotated code available before the official version comes out.' The 2003 official full-text ORS will be available before West's 2003 pocket parts.
You printed a letter from Peter Appleton under the banner, 'All Are Responsible' (Letters, January 2004). Mr. Appleton's point was that it should not solely be the responsibility of lawyers to provide services to those who can't afford them and I would generally agree with that proposition.
In the same issue of the Bulletin, Jad Lemhouse makes a plea for more use of Justice of the Peace Courts (Parting Thoughts, 'Back to the Future'). And why not? Why not simplify the process and procedures? What if we spent a fraction of the time we spend on figuring out existing procedures and inventing new ones, working on systems designed by geniuses to be used by idiots? If we are as smart as we think we are, we can do it easily.
And if more people could be responsible for themselves we wouldn't face such an avalanche of need. We might not even need all of us lawyers.
Oregon lawyers are indebted to Stephanie Midkiff for her 'fair and balanced' comparison of ORS and West's new version of the Oregon statutes in the January 2004 Bulletin ('WORSA vs. ORS'). WORSA is a handsome set for office shelves; the volumes are a handy size; it offers copious annotations integrated with the text of the statutes and written by the highly professional West editorial staff, as well as other bells and whistles which may (or may not) be useful–like references to other West products.
All these features may tempt lawyers to purchase the West set over ORS. The price seems to be a bargain: 47 hard bound volumes for $425 works out to a little over $9 per volume, so cheap by law book standards that you may wonder how West can do it. The answer is that they can't, and probably won't for very long. West statute sets in other states are far more expensive. For example, West's Maine Revised Statutes Annotated is currently priced at $935 (39 volumes). Like Oregon, Maine has a biennial legislature. Updating the Maine statutes cost $754 in 2001; $948 in 2002. West's Colorado Revised Statutes Annotated (49 volumes) goes for $1,735. Updates were $871 in 2000; $1,171 in 2001. West's Connecticut General Statutes Annotated (49 volumes) were $1,633; updates were $1,122 in 2001, $1,328 in 2002. West's statute sets for larger states are even more expensive.
The only prices comparable to WORSA appear to be in states in which the set is new. For example, West's Code of Georgia Annotated (64 volumes), introduced like WORSA in 2003, is now at $600. My guess is that these are both 'introductory' prices. I think that we can anticipate that they will escalate rapidly, and that updating WORSA will soon be several times the cost of keeping ORS current. Oregon lawyers who are considering WORSA should consider carefully what those bells and whistles are worth to them. (Prices are from Kendall F. Svengalis, Legal Information Buyer's Guide & Reference Manual, 2003).

A tick whose bite can trigger a meat allergy is populating New England, report says
Conditions along New England's southern coast favor the lone star tick, which can spur a red meat allergy in its victims, according to experts.

Christopher Gavin, Boston.com Staff
Two years ago, a woman from a town in coastal Maine was told she had developed a new allergy to red meat.
The cause?
A lone star tick bite.
Yes, the small, aggressive parasites carry alpha-gal, a sugar molecule most mammals have, except for humans, monkeys, and apes, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says.
Lone star ticks transmit the molecule, which in turn triggers the allergy, prompting common symptoms such as hives, swelling, and difficulty breathing, according to the Mayo Clinic. Those can take several hours to show.
"People need to know about it because I think that people may have also been bitten by a lone star, but may not have the severity of the symptoms that I have," Patty O'Brien Carrier, of Harpswell, told The Portland Press Herald last year as she recounted how she endured through two episodes of anaphylactic shock from eating mammal meat before the discovery was made. "They don't go back and say, 'Oh, wow, look what I had for dinner at 7 o'clock.'"
Lone star ticks — adult females have a white dot on their backs, hence, "lone star" — have been in the South for over a century, far from the shores of New England.
But experts say that's changing.
"Both blacklegged (Ixodes scapularis) and lone star (Amblyomma americanum) ticks may be recolonizing areas where they thrived historically, before rampant deforestation and substantial local reduction of key hosts," a report published in The New England Journal of Medicine Thursday says. "Linked, in part, to a warming climate, there has been an increase in the number of ticks and associated diseases recorded in the United States and Canada, as well as in Europe."
Lone star ticks, which can carry several diseases too, mainly target large mammals and are especially attracted to white-tailed deer, according to the report.
"The resurgence of lone star ticks is linked to increased populations of deer, eastern coyotes, and wild turkeys," the report says. "In addition to occupying its established range, the lone star tick has expanded into the upper midwestern and northeastern United States and eastern Canada."
Breeding populations were recorded in Newport County, Rhode Island, in 1986, but have been more recently found in Connecticut's Fairfield and New Haven counties in 2018 and 2019 as well, according to the Journal. Massachusetts logged its own findings this year in Nantucket, Barnstable, and Dukes counties, the report says.
In Maine meanwhile, lone star ticks are indeed moving north, but are "not fully established" in the state, the Maine Center for Disease Control & Prevention notes.
"Current environmental and climatic conditions favor the establishment and expansion of lone star ticks along the southern New England coast," the report says.
Authors of the Journal article write that "active surveillance" should be required to properly track the northeastern growth of the lone star tick, which, they add, is "an important emerging health threat to humans, domesticated animals, and wildlife."
"It's also plausible that the lone star tick will displace local tick species, transmit different pathogens than those species, and alter the tickborne disease landscape," the report says.

Prestigious commission for Mike Fletcher Jazz Orchestra
By Peter Bacon on 28 March 2016 • ( 0 )
The Mike Fletcher Jazz Orchestra (Photo © Garry Corbett)
Birmingham saxophonist, composer and bandleader Mike Fletcher doesn't get to roll out his jazz orchestra nearly often enough, but he'll be doing that in mid-April and the concert will feature a new work written specially for him and his band by composer Anna Meredith.
Meredith is a composer of great versatility, as shown by the fact that her music has been broadcast by the BBC on all its radio stations barring the sport ones and the world service. Her music has been performed at the Last Night Of The Proms and during Prada fashion campaigns.
She says: "I love the sound of a big-band line up and was bowled over by the incredible virtuosity of Mike Fletcher's ensemble. I'm planning to explore short, focused ideas in a devised/collaborative way with the band to create a series of Studies for Big Band showcasing small ideas maxed out for this brilliant, shiny sound."
Fletcher's band includes saxophonist Tom Challenger, trumpeter Nick Malcolm, pianist Dan Nicholl's and a whole host of familiar faces from the Birmingham jazz scene.
Of his JO, Mike says: "This instrumentation gives me a good degree of flexibility as both a composer and director/performer. With the smaller sections there remain sufficient voices to facilitate rich full band voicings, yet with an increased degree of agility when we are all improvising together.
"It was very important for me when selecting the particular musicians that each one be fluent in both the traditional and free idioms, as my music moves between the two. The choice of sax players is also important; between us we have a wide palette of woodwind (flutes and clarinets)."
You can hear the Mike Fletcher Jazz Orchestra playing Anna Meredith's Studies for Big Band and lots of other music on Saturday 16 April in the Adrian Boult Hall at Birmingham Conservatoire (and let's treasure this lovely little concert hall while we can before the wrecker's ball hits it in a matter of months).
More details of this THSH Jazzlines concert/commission, presented as part of the Rhythm Changes jazz conference programme, together with online booking are here.

Indexing Blockchain While Introducing Parallel Processing — aelf's Solution
Mappo
Mar 1, 2019 · 5 min read
Introducing any new innovation often comes with growing pains. One such has been found by many emerging projects as they attempt to solve the scalability debacle. Aelf model relies in indexing the transactions through the use of merkle tree technology, but this also introduces a new hurdle as the project also incorporates parallel processing.
Indexing is how side chains connect to the aelf main chain. To participate in the aelf ecosystem, a side chain requests indexing by the main chain, for which the side chain pays transaction fees. Indexing a static blockchain comes with its own challenges. As more blocks are added to the chain, it becomes more time-consuming to index the entire chain.
However, even this challenge takes a somewhat simplistic view, as it assumes indexing happens while the blockchain itself is static, when in reality more and more blocks are being added while indexing is ongoing. This brings a more significant set of challenges, as there will be dependencies between the inputs and outputs of some transactions, while others are unrelated to one another. So, in trying to index a dynamic blockchain, it's inevitable that indexing will at some point become stuck at a transaction dependent on another that has yet to be processed.
Blockchains such as Ethereum overcome this by requiring transactions to be processed strictly in sequence. However, sequential processing puts a limit on transaction speed and thus, on scalability.
In the development of aelf, we have set out to build an ecosystem that overcomes these problems. Our solution provides a high transaction throughput on the aelf main chain, allowing side chains to process transactions at speed and process unrelated transactions in parallel to one another.
At the same time, the main chain must also be able to index the necessary transactions on the side chains at the same pace. This is achieved through a side chain dynamic indexing system which operates alongside parallel transaction processing.
Side Chain Indexing
Side chains on aelf may be either internal side chains operating under the aelf OS, or they may be external side chains of high importance, such as the Bitcoin or Ethereum blockchains. The nodes on the main chain read information from the side chains and form a Merkle Tree root. In the case of external blockchains, this root obtains Merkle proofs via messaging to verify any given transaction.
The precise indexing strategy for each side chain is determined based on its unique characteristics. This flexibility in indexing strategy overcomes the issue that different side chains may have different block generation speeds. It also avoids the wasted effort of indexing orphaned blocks on blockchains that have a high probability of forking.
So, for instance, the indexing strategy for a blockchain such as Bitcoin could mean indexing happens one minute after block formation, once a block can be confirmed not to be an orphan. If an aelf side chain and the main chain adopt merge mining, then the miners of both chains can also index both chains in real-time.
Indexing of side chains is incentivized through the aelf token system, which pays miners in transaction fees generated by the side chains. In this way, side chains must also ensure that indexing remains economically favorable for the miners.
Sequential processing requires that all transactions are processed in sequence. It offers the benefit of more straightforward indexing; however it's inefficient as it hampers the speed at which a blockchain can operate.
Parallel processing allows unrelated transactions to be confirmed in parallel to one another. So, a transaction from one side chain can be processed at the same time as one on a different and unrelated side chain. In aelf, a node will assign unrelated (mutex) transactions to different groups. Within a single group, all transactions are processed in sequence. However, the groups are all processed in parallel, achieving far faster confirmation time than pure sequential processing.
Nodes will prioritize transactions that can be processed in parallel. However, it may be that a particular transaction cannot be processed because its input is dependent on an unconfirmed output. These "special" transactions can be processed in sequence, rather than in parallel, provided the side chain is able to pay sufficient transaction fees to the miners to incentivize them to do so. Otherwise, nodes can simply reject these transactions.
If one node ends up accepting seemingly dubious transactions that can't be processed in parallel or within an acceptable time frame, then it increases the likelihood that the block will be rejected by other nodes.
If a transaction is left unconfirmed and isn't withdrawn within a short timeframe, it will be deemed to be in "chaos." To handle this, aelf requires that each transaction is marked with the header of the latest block at the time it's broadcast to the network. If the transaction remains unconfirmed after 64 subsequent blocks are confirmed, then it will expire.
Amdahl's Law and Computing Resource Efficiency
Amdahl's Law allows us to calculate the theoretical speedup resulting from using parallel processing. The law shows that the execution efficiency of the whole task increases with better resources in the system. The increase in speed is always limited by any part of the task that doesn't benefit from the improvement. In other words, if a blockchain network with sequential processing is a herd of buffalo, it can only move as fast as the slowest member of the herd.
Therefore, aelf's Parallel Execution Scheduler (GPES) separates transaction data and computational dependency from the memory pool. Cloud computing allows nodes to operate across clusters of machines, thereby enabling increased transaction speed which supports parallel processing across the entire network.
Scalability is one of blockchain's most significant problems to date and one that aelf has set out to tackle from multiple dimensions. Through the deployment of the DPoS protocol, combined with parallel processing and a dynamic side chain indexing mechanism, aelf aims to achieve an unprecedented level of scalability, the start of it already having taking form in the initial TPS results of 14,968 in Aug, 2018 at the start of the testnet.

A new study has revealed yet another way climate change is going to alter the future of Earth.
A new study has found that climate change is making it harder for Rocky Mountain forests to recover after a wildfire.
The regional droughts that are happening partly because of global warming are resulting in big problems after wildfires wipe out forests: growth of new forests is hindered by the fact that post-fire seedlings can't establish a foothold because of the drought conditions, according to a University of Wisconsin-Madison statement.
There's also been an increase in the average distance between burned areas, which provide an addition obstacle to seeds that would be need to replace lost trees.
Unfortunately, this is what the future looks like for our planet, scientists say. The study could help researchers better understand how this will impact forests later this century and could inform simmulate models on climate change.
The forests of the Rocky Mountains are especially informative because they tend ot be well-adapted to fire. Lodgepole pines have seed cones that are actually opened by fire, causing many thousands of seeds to be released after a wildfire. Unfortunately, the new findings indicate that these seeds struggle to survive because of these conditions once they are released.

Czastuszka (przyśpiewka, krótka piosenka) — gatunek rosyjskiego folkloru, powstały w 1870 roku. Termin "czastuszka" został wprowadzony przez pisarza G. I. Uspienskiego w felietonie "Nowe pieśni narodowe" (1889 r.), uwzględniającym charakterystykę narodowych wierszyków. Źródła czastuszki — przyśpiewki do zabawy i tańca, "zbiorowe" pieśni w korowodzie, rymowanki dla dzieci, ślubne  rymowane wierszyki i miejskie pieśni. Dla czastuszki charakterystyczna jest aktualność tematyki, zwięzłość, niespodziewane metafory i rytm, śpiewno-recytatywny typ melodii, improwizacja na podstawie stałych form muzykalnych.

W wersji A. A. Szachmatowa, nazwa czastuszki pochodzi od czasownika "paplać" ze znaczeniem "szybko mówić do częstych taktów muzycznych"; druga interpretacja umotywowania nazwy — "to, co często powtarzają".

Charakterystyka czastuszki
Czastuszki tworzone są przede wszystkim przez wiejską młodzież, wykonywane są one całymi seriami w jednej melodii podczas spacerów przy akompaniamencie  harmonii, bałałajki lub też bez muzycznej asysty. Główny emocjonalny ton — majorowy. Główną tematyką jest tematyka  miłosno-życiowa, jednakże już w  okresie przewrotu październikowego w 1917 r. pojawiają się czastuszki o społecznej treści (częściej z ironicznym zabarwieniem); w okresie sowieckim znacząco zwiększa się ich ilość na tle wszystkich czastuszek a  ich zakres tematyczny ulega poszerzeniu. Będąc odpowiedzią na codzienne wydarzenia, czastuszka zwykle powstaje jako poetyczna improwizacja. Charakterystyczne dla niej są zwroty do określonej osoby lub słuchaczy, bezpośredniość wypowiedzi, realistyczność, ekspresja. Pod wpływem folklorystycznych czastuszek powstała czastuszka literacka (D. Biednyj, W. W. Majakowskij, A. A. Prokofiew  i in.).

Tekst czastuszki — zwykle jest to czterowiersz trocheiczny, w którym rymują się druga i czwarta zwrotka (czasami wszystkie zwrotki rymują się krzyżowo). Charakterystyczną cechą języka czastuszki jest wyrazistość i bogactwo środków językowych często wychodzących poza ramki języka literackiego. Często czastuszka wykonywana jest przy akompaniamencie harmonii i bałałajki. Podstawą muzyczną czastuszki są krótkie jednoczęściowe, a rzadziej dwuczęściowe melodie wykonywane w połowie za pomocą gwary lub śpiewu.

Historia pojawienia się czastuszki
Istnieją fakty świadczące o występowania króciutkich piosenek, zbliżonych do czastuszek w  XVIII w. i pierwszej połowie XIX w., jednak nie są one przekonujące. Jednakże metoda badania tekstów folklorystycznych, związana z próbą stosunkowo dokładnego datowania czasu ich pochodzenia, na podstawie dat ich pierwszych publikacji, nie może w pełni odnosić się do folkloru i dlatego nie jest podstawą odniesienia czasu powstawania tych lub innych gatunków folkloru do okresu nie wcześniejszego niż  XVIII w. Dlatego przyjęło się uważać, że czastuszka pojawiła się w połowie XIX w. w męskim środowisku i jej największy rozwój przypada na okres po ukształtowaniu się władzy sowieckiej. Poprzednikami czastuszki były pieśni do zabawy i tańca nazywane "częstymi".

Początkowo czastuszki nie uznawano za gatunek artystyczny twórczości narodowej, uważano, że  zepsuje ona i zniszczy pieśń narodową. Ostro na ten temat wypowiadał się  wielki śpiewak rosyjski Fiodor Szalapin. W swojej książce "Tonacja" znany pisarz  W. I. Biełow przytacza jedną z wypowiedzi  F. I. Shaljapina: "…Co się z nim stało (narodem), że zapomniał pieśni i zaśpiewał tą czastuszkę, to nieprzyjemne, nieznośnie pozbawione talentu bezguście? Ta przeklęta niemiecka harmonika, którą z taką miłością trzyma pod pachą jakiś robotnik w wolny dzień? Wyjaśnić tego nie mogę. Wiem tylko jedno, że ta czastuszka —  to nie pieśń, а sroka, i nawet nienaturalna a  bezwstydnie pokolorowana. A jak dobrze śpiewali. Śpiewali w polu, nad rzeczką, w lasach, w chatach przy pochodni..."

W XX w. ostrość i oryginalność melodii czastuszek przyciągnęła uwagę kompozytorów. Stworzono wiele oryginalnych odautorskich dzieł w tym gatunku. Teraz czastuszka żyje pełnowartościowym, twórczym życiem, zajmuje znaczące miejsce w  kulturze rosyjskiej narodowej pieśni.

Czastuszki całkowicie nie występują nad Donem, ponieważ kozacy odnosili się lekceważąco do rosyjskich  chłopów (od "łapti" - ros. buty z wikliny), dlatego też nie  przejmowali gatunku czastuszki. "Czastuszka" została wprowadzona do słowników wielu języków bez tłumaczenia, tak jak słowa "samowar" i "matrioszka", które w słownikach obcojęzycznych nie są tłumaczone.

Różne nazwy czastuszki
Istnieje wiele melodii czastuszek. Często tekst czastuszki śpiewają z tym samym, znanym motywem. Tymczasem w każdym obwodzie, prawie w każdym rejonie można usłyszeć oryginalne niepodobne do innych melodie i akompaniamenty. W różnych obwodach Rosji czastuszki były nazywane w rozmaity sposób: prigudki, przyśpiewki, stradanija, sbiruszki, pribaski, zawliekaszy, nieskładiechi, pieriepewki, skomoroszyna, taratorka, prochodnaja itd. Były i są one śpiewane w pojedynkę, w tańcu i w pracy. Czastuszki, w zależności od ich treści, śpiewane są szybko lub wolno.

Rodzaje czastuszek
 Liryczne czastuszki (przyśpiewki) — czterowersowa czastuszka  o różnej tematyce.
 Taneczne  — czterowersowe przyśpiewki, różnią się one od lirycznych szczególnym rytmem, odpowiednim do tańca, wersy są krótsze niż w lirycznej czastuszkie. Odnoszą się do nich czastuszki typu: Jabłuszko, które pojawiły się na początku XX w. na Ukrainie, jako miłosne. W latach 1917—1920 tego typu czastuszki zyskały nową tematykę socjalno-polityczną.
 Stradanija — z reguły, dwuwersowe czastuszki o miłości — śpiewane są wolno, przeciągle. Śpiewano je nad Wołgą i  w środkowym pasie Rosji. Na północy Rosji, Uralu, Syberii nie były one znane.
 Czastuszki, nazwane od zaśpiewki — "Semjonowna". Są to dwuwersowe czastuszki ze szczególnie smutnym rytmem. Pojawiły się one w latach 30 XX w. W czastuszkach Semjonowna to cwana rosyjska baba. Na motywie "Semjonowny" w latach 30-40 XX w.  stworzono wiele  bezwzględnych romansów.
 Matania — ze słowem "Matania" wykonawcy czastuszek zwracali się do swoich  ukochanych, przy tym słowo tak często brzmiało zarówno w na początku pieśni, jak i w przyśpiewkach, że została po nim nazwana cała  gatunkowa różnorodność. Ten czterostopniowy trochej, a także zwrotka "Matani" składają się z dwóch zwrotek i przyśpiewki.

Tematyka czastuszek
Większość czastuszek jest o miłości, jednakże granica między czastuszką osobistą, życiową a społeczną, socjalną ma znaczenie całkowicie umowne. Można wydzielić następujące tematyki: miłosno-życiowe, społeczno-polityczne, wiejsko-kołchozowe dni powszednie o tematyce kołchozowo produkcyjnej z udziałem traktorzystów-mechaników. W latach władzy sowieckiej powodem do tworzenia czastuszek była sowiecka propaganda. W wielu czastuszkach demonstrowany był ogólnonarodowy los zdrowego cynizmu w odniesieniu do wszystkich perturbacji w kraju— w przeciwieństwie do narzucanej aktywności politycznej. Niekiedy w czastuszkach odzwierciedlano bieżące nowości. Niektóre czastuszki były natychmiastową i trafną reakcją na aktualne tematy. W tym czasie, w celu propagandy, wydawane były zbiory "ideologicznie poprawnych" czastuszek. Czastuszki tworzone były przez wszystkich — zarówno dorosłych jak i dzieci. Po pieriestrojce, w roku 1990, pojawiły się czastuszki, w których wykorzystywano obcojęzyczne słowa. Na równi ze zmianami w kraju zmieniła się i tematyka czastuszek, jednak główną tematyką pozostały stosunki między mężczyzną a kobietą. Niektóre tematyki czastuszek zostały objęte cenzurą. W okresie przed władzą sowiecką do takiej właśnie tematyki odnosiła się religia. W epoce ZSRR większość czastuszek skoncentrowanych było na ostrej polityce lub seksualności. Wiele z nich zawiera nienormatywną leksykę.

Symbolika koloru w czastuszce
W czastuszce kolor ma znaczenie symboliczne: czerwony — kolor siły, niebieski — kolor wątpliwości, żółty — kolor zdrady, czarny — kolor smutku, biały — kolor czystości i  niewinności.

George Lippert (1844, Bavaria – July 1906, Salem, Oregon), was born with three legs and, as was discovered during his autopsy, two hearts. He worked as a curiosity for nearly 50 years, many of them for P. T. Barnum. Although he claimed that his third leg was fully functional until it was fractured in an accident, this has not been firmly established.

In 1898, he began facing competition from a three-legged boy, Sicilian-born Frank Lentini, who was touring with the Ringling Brothers Circus. By 1899 he was penniless, but found a benefactor in a florist named Mary Riggs, with whom he lived in his final years.

He died of tuberculosis in 1906.

The Ronald G. Becker Collection of Charles Eisenmann Photographs, held by Syracuse University, includes a photograph of a painting titled "George Lippert three legged man".

Acupuncture is a type of eastern medicine that has been around for many centuries around the world, predominantly in Eastern Asia. It is a type of medical procedure that involves using thin sterile needles to stimulate acupuncture points around the body. This enables the body to start healing itself naturally by releasing hormones that stimulate growth and healing. By letting the body heal itself, it targets all abnormalities within the body and allows a full recovery and has no negative side effects due to its natural method. Western medicine involves using synthetic medicine and gives a abnormal dosage of chemicals that result in many side effects and not fully targeting the root issue. This is the reason many people have turned to holistic healing and eastern medicine in recent times. America is still new to the idea of eastern medicine and holistic medicine, so it is important to understand the fundamentals involving acupuncture and herbal medicine.
Many licensed acupuncturist will perform acupuncture on a patient and depending on the symptoms, may even use other methods like giving herbal medicine, moxibustion, cupping, and more.
Most treatments will begin with the doctor asking a few questions about the patients symptoms and how long they have been dealing with the sickness.
Next, they will undergo acupuncture for around 30minutes to an hour. Afterwards, the doctor may even prescribe herbal medicine to further help with the healing process.
This is important because we want to target the symptom using multiple methods that will induce healing in a natural manner with the least side effects.
Acupuncture is effective for many types of disorders and illnesses such as arthritis, joint pain, muscle pain, headaches & migraines, shoulder and neck pain, fibromyalgia, sports injuries, scoliosis, gout, and more.

Neurological disorders such as bells palsy, peripheral neuropathy, pinched nerves, numbness, myasthenia gravis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and more.
Mental and emotional disorders such as depression, anxiety, stress, panic attack, insomnia, dizziness, and vertigo are also effectively treated.
Both Men's and Women's health can benefit from acupuncture and herbal medicine.

Alexandria, 391 AD: Hypatia shows cosmology, science, and reasoning. Her understudy Orestes is infatuated with her, as is Davus, her own slave. As the city s Christians, drove by Ammonius and Cyril, increase political force, the establishments of learning may disintegrate alongside the administration of servitude. Bounce ahead 20 years: Orestes, the city s administrator, has an uneasy peace with Christians, drove by Cyril. A gathering from the recently enabled Christians has now taken to authorize their social administration ardently; first they see the Jews as their obstruction, then nonbelievers. Hypatia has no enthusiasm for confidence; she s worried about the development of divine bodies and "the fraternity of all". In spite of the fact that her previous slave doesn t see it that way.

Mega Millions jackpot climbs to $940 million after no winner
Posted: Jan 4, 2023 / 02:45 AM PST
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Mega Millions jackpot increased to an estimated $940 million after another drawing Tuesday resulted in plenty of losers but not a single grand prize winner.
The numbers drawn late Tuesday night were: 25, 29, 33, 41, 44 and gold Mega Ball 18.
The next drawing is scheduled to be held Friday night.
Oregon to return $10 million of unclaimed funds
The new $940 million jackpot is for a winner who chooses to be paid through an annuity over 29 years. Nearly all winners opt for a cash payout, which for Friday night's drawing would be an estimated $483.5 million.
In Tuesday's drawing, there were more than 2.9 million winning tickets of various amounts including three $4 million tickets sold in Arizona, Mississippi and South Dakota, Mega Millions said in a statement.
The lack of a winner of an estimated $785 million jackpot Tuesday means there have been 23 straight drawings without anyone taking the top prize.
The new jackpot will remain the sixth-largest jackpot in U.S. history.
The jackpot-winning drought isn't surprising given the daunting odds of one in 302.6 million of winning the top prize.
'It was terrifying': Woman says her house was shot at least 25 times on New Year's day
The jackpot is the largest since someone in California won a record $2.04 billion Powerball prize on Nov. 8. There still has not been an announced winner of that prize.
There have been only three larger Mega Millions jackpots than Friday's estimated prize in the game's 20 years, including $1.53 billion in 2018, $1.05 billion in 2021 and $1.33 billion in July, Mega Millions said.
Mega Millions is played in 45 states as well as Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

You Don't Pay Unless We Recover 40-145-3270
Suing For Gun Violence Or Gun Liability: It Is Possible
As a general rule, under federal laws, gun manufacturers cannot be held liable for injuries caused by the guns that they make or that they manufacture (unless the gun itself was defective, causing an injury, or there is some false advertising claim that leads to an injury). But as victims of the Sandy Hook school massacre recently learned, in some cases, even when federal law doesn't allow recovery, state law often will.
Sandy Hook Victims Reach Settlement With Manufacturer
The victims and families of victims of the Sandy Hook school shooting had sued gun manufacturer Remington, but to avoid the restrictions of federal law, they sued under a state law in Massachusetts, that allows gun manufacturers to be sued for false advertising or for marketing guns to people who shouldn't have them or possess them.
The families alleged that the marketing was targeted towards people like the Sandy Hook killer, thus leading to someone buying and using a gun, who shouldn't have had the gun.
Remington said that it still could not be sued, because the federal law trumped or superseded the state law–that is, they argued that consumers couldn't sue under the state law, given the federal law said that gun manufacturers could not be sued.
But before any decision could be rendered, Remington agreed to the sum of $73 million to a group of families, thus leaving the legal question up in the air–but still showing that when there is gun violence, parties, including the gun manufacturer, can be sued.
Other Parties Who May be Liable
Not only can a gun manufacturer be sued when there is gun violence, but there may be other parties liable for gun violence.
For example, if the gun violence happens on a business' property, victims may allege that the property could have and should have done more to secure the premises, through the use of gates, security guards, or better lighting.
If gun violence happens at work, victims can allege that businesses should have done background checks on employees.
Negligent Entrustment Theories
Often, gun users–especially younger ones–get the guns from parents or guardians. Victims can allege that the parents are liable, for allowing the child, teen or young person, to come into possession of the gun when it was obvious that it was dangerous. This often happens when guns in homes are not properly secured or locked away.
Criminals also may get guns from stores, which may allow employees to access the guns, or which may sell guns to customers that are, again, too young to purchase them.
Of course, there are also unintentional shootings, such as when someone accidentally fires a gun into the air, or when someone is shooting for sport, but accidentally ends up injuring someone else.
The moral of the story here is that when someone is injured because of a gun, don't assume that nobody is liable. There may be a host of companies or actors, including the manufacturer under state laws, that could be liable to victims for injuries caused by guns.
If someone you know has been injured because of a gun, or from criminal activity, we may be able to help get you compensation. Contact our Rhode Island personal injury lawyers at Robert E. Craven & Associates at 401-453-2700 today.

About Merry-Go-Round Magazine
Merry-Go-Round Magazine is a continuation of an earlier project called Crossfader Magazine. Crossfader was founded in 2015 by a group of film student seniors who had the slightly arrogant and foolhardy notion that they could start an independent culture magazine to share their thoughts on movies, TV shows, video games, and music in a format other than lengthy Facebook screeds.
Merry-Go-Round Magazine is an attempt to bring thoughtful, independent criticism to an increasingly homogeneous and corporatized media landscape. We pride ourselves on presenting our honest takes on whatever pop culture we choose to write about without cowing to pressure from the major studios and forces that dominate an ever-increasing amount of the pop culture available to us. Simultaneously, we believe in being fair to the creators who work tirelessly to produce the content we critique; we don't set out to eviscerate anything for the sake of cheap and immediate clicks. By the same token, we hope to always be considerate of the existing fan bases for the things we discuss—through trial and error over the past few years we've learned there's no joy in being vicious to the people who just happen to like something. In short, we aim for this magazine to be a new way to engage with pop culture critically, without entirely sucking the fun out of it in the process. We hope to be a one-stop shop for recommendations in what's current in any major media platform, while also providing more thorough analysis of what it means to live in an era saturated with so much content.
As we've attempted to imagine new and better things we could do with this iteration of our publication, it's become impossible to keep running this operation without bringing in at least a little money. The cost of keeping a website up and running has gotten to be too much for our editing staff to self-fund. More importantly, we feel that all our talented friends who've produced so much exceptional writing for us over the last couple of years deserve to be compensated for their hard work. Nobody is expecting to get rich off this endeavor, but we would be thrilled to start building a community of subscribers who want more from their online content, who are willing to contribute directly to see it come to fruition. We hope you'll join us.
$300 - reached! per month
Our operating costs are covered! $300 a month will let us start having serious discussions about establishing compensation structures and long-term goals such as events.

GAINESBORO – After scoring on each of their first two possessions, the Jackson County High School Blue Devils struggled to stop the Watertown Tigers Friday night as they fell 31-14 in a Region 4/2A football battle.
"We knew coming in that we were going to have issues matching our kids up speed wise with them," said Jackson County coach Sean Loftis. "We were hoping to get there to them (in the backfield) and in the first half we were able to get pressure on him (Watertown QB Bryce Webster).
Jackson County is 4-4 and 2-2 in the region. Watertown is 6-2 overall and 3-1 in the league. The Blue Devils will visit Gordonsville Friday, while Watertown will travel to Carthage to play Smith County. Kickoff at each location is scheduled for 7 p.m.
Bryce Webster threw for four touchdowns in the second half, including three scoring strikes to Heath Price, to lead Watertown to the come-from-behind victory.

MONACO -- Canadian Milos Raonic defeated Spains Tommy Robredo 6-4, 6-3 on Thursday to reach the quarter-finals at the Monte Carlo Masters. The 23-year-old from Thornhill, Ont., will next take on Australian Open champion Stanislas Wawrinka, who advanced on a walkover when Spanish opponent Nicolas Almagro retired before their match with a foot injury. Wawrinka, the third seed, has beaten the eighth-seeded Raonic in both of their previous meetings. "Ive struggled in the past against Stan but it will be quite different this time around," said Raonic. "Im doing a lot of things well and Im looking forward to that challenge." Raonic had seven aces in his third-round match and broke Robredos serve once per set while never facing a challenge on his own serve. The Canadian also beat Robredo in their previous meeting last spring in Barcelona. His next match marks a breakthrough as it will be Raonics first quarter-final appearance at a clay-court 1000 Series event. "This is a first, thats for sure," he said. "Its a result of a lot of the good things Im doing. But I can do better and Im looking forward to bringing that out in myself. "This is the closest Ive gotten to a big clay opportunity, so its definitely a positive." In second-round mens doubles play, Torontos Daniel Nestor and Serbian partner Nenad Zimonjic defeated the Polish duo of Mariusz Fyrstenberg and Marcin Matowski 6-7(6), 7-6 (3), 10-7. Raonic claimed the opening set against Robredo with a break in the final game, smashing down an overhead winner on his second set-point opportunity. The Canadian jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the second set when a Robredo return wide down the line. Raonic then stayed the course to serve out the victory, finishing in just over an hour. "Im very pleased with myself, I showed a lot of discipline," Raonic said. "I struggled in the beginning but was able to figure it all out towards the end of the set. I gave myself a lot of opportunities afterwards." Raonic credited his world-class serve with keeping him out of trouble. "Serving well was a big thing today," he said. "I was also moving well and able to dictate with my forehand." The victory boosted Raonics record to 10-3 on the season and has given him a boost of confidence on the slower surface. "Ive played a lot of the Spanish guys in practice matches," said Raonic, the former pupil of Spaniard Galo Blanco. "I definitely have more of an understanding of what I need to do and what I can expect from them as well." Also Thursday, defending champion Novak Djokovic raced into the quarter-finals by dispatching Pablo Carreno Busta of Spain 6-0, 6-1 in 47 minutes. Eight-time champion Rafael Nadal also had little trouble, beating Italian Andreas Sepppi 6-1, 6-3, while fourth-seeded Roger Federer shook off a slow start in a 6-4, 6-1 win against Czech player Lukas Rosol.dddddddddddd The second-seeded Djokovic won his second-round opener in 45 minutes and has yet to be tested this week. He next faces Spaniard Guillermo Garcia-Lopez. The top-seeded Nadal has looked sloppy at times. "Lost only two games in the first two matches (here). Cant be better than this, for sure," Djokovic said. "I am confident on the court. Im coming off a great American hard-court season." Djokovic sealed the 22-minute first set with a crisp forehand. Carreno Busta received loud cheers, clenched his fists and grinned broadly when he won his only game for 3-1 in the second. Djokovic served out, tormenting him one last time with an exquisite drop shot. He is aiming for his fifth straight Masters win. He won at Indian Wells and Key Biscayne, dominating Nadal in the latter final to record his third straight win against him in straight sets. "Ive had more time comparing to last year to practice on the clay courts and to get my game to the level where I want it to be," Djokovic said. Nadal achieved his 300th win on clay in beating Seppi. He won this title for eight straight years until last year when he lost the final to Djokovic. "Today I played a little bit better than yesterday," Nadal said. "I was playing at a good level." He next faces sixth-seeded David Ferrer, who easily beat Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria 6-4, 6-2, while Federer will face ninth-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Nadal has a 21-5 career record against countryman Ferrer, winning 10 of the past 11 meetings. "David is a tough, tough player on any surface," Nadal said. "But here on clay, always a big challenge." Rosol, meanwhile, broke Federer in the third game and held for 3-1. "It was a bit rocky in the beginning," Federer said. He broke back with a stinging cross-court forehand at Rosols feet, and then broke him to love. He clinched the set when Rosols forehand sailed long. Federer has a 10-4 record against Tsonga, who beat him in the French Open quarter-finals last year and in the Wimbledon quarters in 2011. "Ive seen Jo play different kind of quality matches lately, so not quite sure hes going to play, how aggressive, how passive," Federer said. Tsonga won 5-7, 6-3, 6-0 against Fabio Fognini of Italy, who did his best to spoil the Frenchmans 29th birthday with his wild antics, including smashing rackets and shouting loudly. In the days only upset, Garcia-Lopez beat fifth-seeded Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic 4-6, 6-3, 6-1. The only other time Garcia-Lopez reached a Masters last eight was in Shanghai four years ago, when he lost to Djokovic, who leads 5-0 in their head-to-heads. ' ' '

Having produced our 10th annual Retail Conference in 2016 we decided it was time to review and refresh our format and approach. Taking attendee feedback into account, and for the first time in 2017, we will be producing two annual events, each with specific themes and focus.
On 17th May 2017 we will be delivering the Retail Customer Experience Conference.
Our delegates feedback highlighted that in recent years most retail events had focused on ecommerce, mcommerce, social media and digital/technology. Front line store operations, a critical component of the omni-channel customer experience, have become the poor-relative to conferences focused on 'exciting new developments'. With the ONS reporting that 80%+ of all retail sales are STILL served through stores (whether through traditional sales or click-and-collect), it seemed madness that there wasn't an event dedicated to retail operations and customer experience professionals.
Then, on 15th November 2017 we will be delivering the Retail Supply Chain Management Conference .
Our attendees had also commented that there are few forums that consider best-practice in the end to end retail supply chain. With the omni-channel customer demanding more rapid and flexible fulfilment and returns options, more and more pressure, and cost, is placed on the outbound, and reverse, logistics and supply chain operations.
Feedback also suggests that the core supply chain is also challenged - with the business need for more efficient flow of stock, reducing out of stocks, maximising lost sales potential, whilst limiting the cost of clearance due to obsolescence. As customers expect more frequent range changes and extended online offerings (leading to increased SKU counts) the merchandise and assortment planning, demand forecasting and replenishment processes have dramatically increased in complexity.
So, for the first time in 2017, we will be presenting a conference that focuses on how retailers can address these challenges, ensuring they have a well-planned, efficient supply chain that supports the business needs, the customer demands, whilst not haemorrhaging profit. You can find out more via Retail Supply Chain Management Conference.
Why should you attend one of The Retail Conferences?
By attending one, or both, of The Retail Conferences, you will be placing yourself ahead of your peers as a fresh, forward-thinking retailer who is not afraid to embrace change and innovation to secure your place in the future.
We pride ourselves on welcoming quality delegates, bringing them together to bolster and progress the retail industry as a unit. For almost a decade, The Retail Conference's attendees have enjoyed flawless expert insights, inspiring success stories and meaningful networking opportunities.
What will you can expect at a Retail Conference?
Exclusive, delegate-only access to download all presentations and other supporting materials immediately after the event.
The opportunity to network and connect with delegates who are all as passionate about retailing as you are.
Time to browse our sponsors stands, showcasing the latest technologies, systems and products to aid the retail industry.
Welcome refreshments - morning goods, coffee, tea and juice.
Mid-morning refreshments - biscuits, coffee and tea.
Lunch - a delicious, hot, fork-buffet meal.
Afternoon refreshments - cakes, coffee and tea.
If you're as enthusiastic about the retail industry as we are, join us on either 17th May or 15th November, at the Nottingham Conference Centre. Ticket prices for retailers are just £149, or £299 for non-retailers! If you book for both events you get a preferential rate of just £199, or £499 for non-retailers! We look forward to seeing you at one of our events soon!
