Post #89, April 27, 2020: The 38 Baby 2 Post
YoungBoy is definitely not a stranger to this blog, I've reviewed probably 2 other projects by him, AI YoungBoy 2 & Still Flexin, Still Steppin. I normally have positive thing to say about YoungBoy so I'm definitely ready to see what I have to say about this release. I've always thought that he's been one of the best in his class and definitely one of the most consistent. Lately through social media it's been a common theme to say that YoungBoy is a bad rapper, I feel like one of the very few that thinks otherwise, I definitely think he is passionate about the music he makes because he has proven this to me in the past, he is entertaining and can actually rap in my opinion. I'm ready to see what YoungBoy has to offer and hopefully it's better than his most recent project.
38 Baby 2 by YoungBoy Never Broke Again
Right off the bat 2we get this intro track titled "Bout My Business (feat. Sherhonda Gaulden) and it is not that good in my opinion, it just doesn't have that typical NBA YoungBoy vibe to it, the phone call in the beginning is very touching though. This track along with the next 3 really turn me off from the whole project, not the best start to a YoungBoy album. Now this is where it starts to pick up, track 5 "Ain't Easy" is the first track that I like in any way. It has a more upbeat tempo behind it compared to the tracks before this one. This album is starting off really bad, definitely one of the worst starts to a YoungBoy album to date. Most albums I listen to don't ever start off with bad track, they are normally in the middle of the album, this shows me that YoungBoy seemingly just threw a bunch of tracks together and called it an album, not good. The next track "Rough Ryder" has the right amount of aggression that I was looking for with this album, it definitely seems like we're starting to get on track with the sound that I intended on hearing. "I-10 Baby" is the third good track in a row, I think he is starting to heat up. The album definitely started off too slow for my liking but it definitely seems like he's picking it up. This is totally the sound that I wanted to hear, it sounds a little different if you ask me. I've always loved that street rap from YoungBoy, that's what I fell in love with so typically the slow music from him doesn't cut it for me. I definitely don't have a problem with "Nawfside" at all, I don't think it's the best but I definitely think it's a good to decent track, although not much sticks out I still think it does it's job as a typical YoungBoy track or as a filler track. I just think that I don't like when YoungBoy goes slow, the track "Fire Stars" just isn't good at all to me and it's probably the 4th or 5th slow track, it definitely seems to be a me problem with YoungBoy and his music. This YoungBoy and DaBaby track is everything I thought It'd be, lackluster but clear as of why it was made, everyone wants to hear a DaBaby and YoungBoy record. The track itself isn't anything crazy as expected but has the potential to be so much more. The narrative for the album so far is tracks that are not that good but just barely good enough, in my opinion and experience at least. "AI Nash" has a really nice flow to it and overall vibe to it, I really enjoy this track, definitely a highlight for this lackluster project from YoungBoy. Without a doubt my favorite off the whole album. I can't really talk much about "Ten Talk" because I've said everything so far, what I said for the first track I like applies here, nothing stands out on this album besides a handful of tracks. I do like the handful of bangers on this album but I don't like how inconsistent it is. This album definitely has its highs and it's lows, more lows than high but they are definitely there. "On the Rest" does a really good job as the outro track, I really can't complain at all, it was a super enjoyable track. Like I said I don't like how inconsistent this album is, I like about half the tracks on here and the other half are pretty unbearable to me.
In the very beginning of the review I said this "Lately through social media it's been a common theme to say that YoungBoy is a bad rapper, I feel like one of the very few that thinks otherwise" I just wanted to touch up on that a bit because I'm curious as of what you all think. YoungBoy in my opinion has a lot of talent, he is very immature and needs a lot of time to grow but I feel that he has the potential to be up there on the list with some of the greats out of the south, he is super consistent, entertaining, can actually rap, passionate, emotion, and energetic, these qualities just scream longevity in my opinion. I definitely think if he stays out of trouble he has the potential to be as big as Gucci Mane or Lil Wayne but that would have to take a lot of time.
This album definitely started off super slow, turned me off right at the beginning. The album slowly took a turn for the good around track 5 to track 9 then took a dip and peaked at track 12 until the end, here and there. Like I said in the beginning of the review, YoungBoy isn't a stranger here on this blog but I can definitely say that this turned out to be not as bad as I expected it to be, his last album is still probably the worst I've heard from him. I know I said that this album started off to be the worst to date but it definitely ended up not that bad. With all that being said I'll more than likely give this project a 6/10. This album totally went by super quick which typically isn't a good thing. In my opinion, quick albums mean that I'm not paying a lot of attention to the music which also means that the content isn't the best. YoungBoy's music normally doesn't do this to me but this album definitely made me feel this way.
Thank You!!! For coming back to read another post here on TMT. I definitely have dreams and goals for this blog but those can come to fruition unless you follow so go ahead and follow the blog and tell your friends to follow this blog and have their friends follow this blog!!! See you all tomorrow for another great review.

Q: Difference in the function return value and direct operation in cpp I am not able to understand why the function (log_a_to_base_b) is returning a different value in comparison to the same operation if given with the input values in single line (Please refer below and code for much clearer explanation of problem)
-Basicaly why the function value and the variable x returned values are different
as function return type is INT and the x is also storing the answer in INT shouldn't both answer be same
If given the same value
The function value in the below code is coming as 3 while the x value in the below code is coming as 2
For refrence the log of 445943744 with base of 764 is 3
// C++ program to find log(a) on any base b
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

int log_a_to_base_b(int a, int b)
{
    return log2(a) / log2(b);
}

// Driver code
int main()
{
    int a = 445943744;
    int b = 764;
    cout << log_a_to_base_b(a, b) << endl;
    int x=log2(445943744)/log2(764);
    cout<<x<<endl;
    return 0;

Ottawa Writers Fest: Michael Crummey's latest takes a turn into an unsettling discovery
Paul Gessell
Detail from Lucas Cranach the Elder's Adam and Eve. Michael Crummey's novel The Innocents seems to compare the characters' experiences to that of the Biblical characters living in an idyllic Garden of Eden.
Michael Crummey's enchanting, but disturbing, new novel, The Innocents, is set amid a hardscrabble Garden of Eden hugging an isolated cove along the coast of northern Newfoundland.
The fable-like story was inspired by a supposedly true event from the late 18th century when a traveling clergyman discovered a young brother and sister living alone, for years, in similar circumstances.
Crummey has fictionalized what became an unsettling discovery for that clergyman and, come Oct. 27, he will attend the Ottawa International Writers Festival to discuss the issues raised by a book that will undoubtedly leave some readers with the clergyman's same sense of discomfort.
The famed Newfoundland author found the clergyman's one-paragraph reference in a document buried in the provincial archives. For years, the author of such previous Newfoundland-based novels as River Thieves, Galore and Sweetland wrestled with the notion of turning that paragraph into a novel. Finally, he has spun a tale of two illiterate pre-teens completely left to their own devices when their parents and a baby sister die of an unnamed illness. A spot on the Scotiabank Giller Prize shortlist resulted, along with a nomination for the Writers Trust Fiction Prize.
There are no neighbours. The closest town, Mockbeggar, is several hours away by rowboat. The children have never been there. The only person they have met from Mockbeggar is a witch-like midwife who was summoned to help deliver their late sister. Their only regular contact with people is the twice yearly visit by a merchant ship, The Hope, where, on board, they trade flour, molasses, tea and other necessities for their haul of fish and furs.
The children, Evered and Ada, bear names strikingly similar to Adam and Eve. Clearly, the author wants us to compare the children's experiences to that of the Biblical characters living in an idyllic Garden of Eden, where bliss ends after tasting the forbidden fruit; shame is discovered in their nakedness; paradise is lost.
In The Innocents (Doubleday Canada), the children manage, barely, to survive cold, hunger and isolation for years. But they are content, at least in the beginning. They know little of the world beyond and are not bothered by their ignorance. They are tough and determined. They fish, they bake bread, they scavenge, they make do.
"The cove was the heart and sum of all creation in their eyes and they were alone there with the little knowledge of the world passed on haphazard and gleaned by chance," Crummey writes.
Their paradise, such as it was, is disrupted when puberty hits. The children don't understand the changes to their bodies and to their yearnings. Experimentation is pleasurable but shameful. The children are confused and frightened with no adults to help them cope. An overlay of dread leaves readers fearful paradise will come crashing down one day.
This is surely Crummey's best book since his debut novel River Thieves, another historical novel set in rural Newfoundland. No one captures the cadences, minutiae and lore of old Newfoundland like Crummey. Every sentence is exquisite in this story unfurled like the words of an ancient Newfoundland sailor spinning tales around a nighttime campfire.
The prose in The Innocents immediately pulls you into the story. "They were still youngsters that winter," the book begins. "They lost their baby sister before the first snowfall." You have no choice but to continue reading.
The language is salted with archaic Newfoundland slang, "God's nails" being a favourite expletive for Evered and Ada. Crummey says he wrote the book with the help of The Dictionary of Newfoundland English. That book would also undoubtedly help readers, too.
Ada is the most memorable of the two children. "She's as stubborn as a mule," Everud frequently says, without really knowing what a mule is. She's not only stubborn and adventurous, but mystical, hoarding a strange collection of shells, bones and other artifacts and carrying on one-way conversations daily with her dead sister Martha. Ada simply can not fathom leaving their seaside shack, in what sailors have dubbed Orphan Cove, because Martha is buried nearby, alongside some man who may be a dead seaman washed to shore or maybe someone the father murdered.

To protect Ada from the roaming hands of lusty sailors, Everud, alone, rows out to The Hope for the semi-annual trading. Ada watches all from shore through a spyglass salvaged from an ice-bound shipwreck containing the remains of sailors cannibalized by starving mates.
One time peering through the glass, Ada sees a handsome young sailor aboard The Hope. She fastens onto the notion of him like a drowning sailor to a lifeboat. She longs to be with him, just as Everud fantasizes about sexual antics with a much older, big-bosomed mistress of a traveling adventurer who unexpectedly and luckily appears in the cove to nurse Ada through a near fatal illness.
So, is The Innocents believable? If you think about it too carefully, the ability of two pre-teen children to survive on their own in such a forbidding environment stretches credulity. But it is not impossible.
The Innocents is based upon a supposedly true story, richly embroidered to become art, a story with the lessons learned from those other innocents who, so long ago, lived, some might say unbelievably, in that other magical, Biblical kingdom called the Garden of Eden.

Terminally ill Hemlington man given suspended jail sentence after stabbing brother-in-law
Michael Nixon, 43, from Hemlington, is in the late stages of Huntington's Disease which was said to affect his thinking

A judge showed mercy to a terminally ill man who stabbed his sister's husband.
Michael Nixon, 43, from Hemlington, is in the late stages of Huntington's Disease which was said to affect his thinking.
His lawyer told Teesside Crown Court today that it was an appalling disease, and he had no explanation for the stabbing.
Prosecutor Shaun Dryden said that Nixon went to his sister's home in Hemlington at 7.30AM on August 12 last year armed with a small kitchen knife.
He went into a bedroom where his brother-in-law was asleep, and the man woke to find him standing over him with the knife in his right hand.
Nixon drove the knife down towards the centre of his chest, and the man grabbed his arm and dragged him out of the bedroom with the help of other members of the family, and put him outside.
It was only then that he realised he had been stabbed in the chest with a 1 centimetre cut through a T-shirt he was wearing. He did not receive any form of medical treatment.
Nixon was arrested two hours later, and initially he described his conduct as a moment of madness in going to the house and into the bedroom.
Mr Dryden added: "He said that he had taken the knife simply to frighten him.
"It appears that there had been a dispute regarding his mother's will after she died two years before."
Nixon had no previous convictions for violence. The judge granted an application for a five year restraining order banning him from contacting the family or going near their home.
Nigel Soppitt, defending, said: "It's a strange matter and he can offer no explanation.
"It's the sort of case for a suspended sentence upon him. It was an isolated case in August last year.
"He has an illness which distorts his thinking. It's an appalling illness that he has, and he could be supported by those around him. He is assisted by the community health team."
The Recorder of Middlesbrough Judge Simon Bourne-Arton QC told Nixon: "You are suffering from Huntington's Disease, which is a terminal illness, you know that, and you were clearly at an advanced stage of that illness.
"For whatever reason you went to your sister's home and attacked her partner, but fortunately the injury was not serious.
"It's certainly not in the interest of the community for you to receive a sentence of immediate custody."
Nixon, of Phoenix Park, Hemlington, was given a nine months jail sentence suspended for 18 months after he admitted unlawful wounding and possession of an offensive weapon.


Trump Week: Arpaio, Gorka, Cohn, Transgenders; Mueller Reality waiting?
Some believe it's all a 3 ring circus. Others prefer using the simple word, "Chaos".
Regardless, welcome to Trump Weekend special, August 26, 2017 Edition.
Regardless what you might call it, it's never boring. Hardly a moment goes by without controversial tweet or insult.
This weekend is no different. Eye-opening. Frantic. Angry.
This weekend features Sebastian Gorka, that deep-voiced protectionist of Donald Trump, a darling of the far-right wing, the ying to Steve Bannon's yang, now joining his former Breitbarter into the fog of the fired-from the Trump White House club? Too bad.
And, Gary Cohn, the director of the National Economic Council, publicly airing his disappointment about Trump's Charlottesville comments followed by a chorus of "Resign, Cohn, Resign".
And, Trump's transgender ban which John McCain claims is "a step in the wrong direction" and which arguably now puts the military in a position of being anti-gay.
And, the President giving Texas, a "good luck" nod and a Friday night breaking-news dump as a category 4 Hurricane readied to slam into Texas promising to make the southeastern part of the state into a bowl of soup?


BRC and SQF include provisions for determining weight declaration compliance with respect to applicable regulations. For most, that means establishing a sampling program for packaging tare and product contents based on National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Handbook 133.
As stated in the document's forward, the NIST Handbook 133 was prepared as a procedural guide for compliance testing of net content statements primarily for government officials including the USDA, FDA, FTC, EPA, and TTB. However, the handbook is also referenced in regulatory requirements, and is a national standard for evaluating accuracy of the content packaging process. For example, Title 9 CFR 317 describes labeling requirements for USDA products, including content statements. No manufacturing process is perfect. There will be variances, but how much of a variance is acceptable?
Title 9 CFR 317.2(h)(2) states: "The statement as it is shown on a label shall not be false or misleading and shall express an accurate statement of the quantity of contents of the container. Reasonable variations caused by loss or gain of moisture during the course of good distribution practices or by unavoidable deviations in good manufacturing practices will be recognized. Variations from stated quantity of contents shall be as provided in §317.19….." Title 9 CFR 317.19 references the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Handbook 133 to define allowable reasonable variations.
Developing a net weight verification program using the over 250 page NIST Handbook 133 can seem like a daunting task. The handbook includes provisions for multiple products including food, alcohol, beverages, cosmetics, and even landscaping supplies like mulch and rock. One needs to first identify the sections of this handbook applicable to one's business to avoid information overload. There is a sufficiently detailed Table of Contents on page ix in the beginning of the handbook to help guide your way. One could supplement research using the "Find" function within the PDF version of the NIST Handbook 133. Simply hold the Ctrl and F keys on your keyboard. A Navigation Window should appear on your screen. Type any word in search bar to help identify applicable sections of the handbook.
For USDA regulated products, Table 2-2 Sample Plans for Category B is a place to start. Column 1 defines the Inspection Lot Size as either 250 units or fewer or 251 units or more. A lot is a production lot with a common net content per packaging line. For example, if a facility manufactures 1 and 5 pound tubes, also known as chubs, of packaged ground beef in a single product lot on a single line for manufacturing purposes, those products are actually two separate lots for net weight sampling. All the 1 pound packages are one lot, and all the 5 pound packages are a separate lot.
Once a lot is determined, Column 2 states the minimum sample size required for content verification per lot, and Column 3 states the minimum sample size required for packaging tare samples per net weight lot.
Column 4 references Table 2-9 to determine the maximum allowable variance of net contents. Table 2-9 U.S. Department of Agriculture, Meat and Poultry Groups and Lower Limits for Individual Packages (Maximum Allowable Variations [MAVs}) can be found on page 153 of the NIST Handbook 133. This table establishes the lower limit for individual packages sampled. This does not establish the lower limit of a lot average. The lot average still needs to be at or above the declared content.
Let's go back to the 5lb packages of ground beef. According to Table 2-9 a 5lb (or 80oz) package can have an MAV of 0.094lb (1.5oz). 5lb – 0.94lb = 4.906lb. Therefore, a single 5lb package of ground beef can have a net weight as low as 4.906lbs and still be in acceptable. However, the average net weight of all the samples must still weight 5lbs or more.
If the facility produced 250 five pound packages of ground beef, the facility would then sample 10 of those package for declare net weight. If all 10 packages had a net weight of 4.906lbs or between 4.906lbs and 4.999lbs the product lot would not be an acceptable net weight because the average would be less than the 5lb declared net weight.
What if the facility makes ice glazed frozen chicken breasts? Does the ice count toward the declared net weight? There's a sampling plan for this as well. NIST Handbook 133 2.6 Net Weight of Encased-in-Ice and Ice Glazed Products includes provisions to account for ice glazing. Special procedures are also defined for Fresh and Frozen Chitterlings (NIST Handbook 133 Section 2.7.2) due to purge. If you procedure liquid items like beer, spirits, or FDA regulated foods like bottle water pay close attention to chapter 3 of the NIST Handbook 133. As aforementioned, NIST Handbook 133 has something for almost all product types.

Q: Sending/Receiving Multiple Message over TCP in Python I want to send/receive messages multiple TCP messages between the server and the client. For Example:
Server:
ip=""
port=8888
buffersize=1024

s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind((myIP, myPort))
s.listen(1)
(cl, adress) = s.accept()

cl.send("hi!".encoded())

msg=cl.recv(bufferSize).decode()
msg=msg[0]
print(" Received message is '{}'".format(msg))

Client:
ip=""
port=8888
s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect(ip,port)

msg=s.recv(1024).decode()
print(" {} ".format(msg))

#sending to server
s.send("OK!".encode())

They can communicate with each other.
I want to send a second message and I want to receive second message in a loop.

A: I wrote a code demonstrating this. Writeup is here: https://aknirala.github.io/maintaining/python3TCP.html
Code is here: https://github.com/aknirala/python3TCP
I found that people (heart-less-ly) deleted the previous link I posted (which was: https://realpython.com/python-sockets/) saying that: if link changes then answer will become invalid. But I don't get why the need to delete, as after that, there was no answer!!. Leaving a comment to explain stuff would have been fine. Anyways here is the code (server wants to do 1000 tasks 10 times each.

msgStart = "crrrazy_msg_START"
msgEnd = "crrrazy_msg_END" #Hoping that this will not be in the message.

    #Below we are assigning three things to each clinet connection, if we want more details
    #like, when was the last time clinet communicated we need to pass one more argument here
    # and later, ensure that it gets updated.
    data = types.SimpleNamespace(addr=addr, inb="", outb=b"")
    #Above notice that inb is not binary. This is becasue our code will be simpler

Barcelona Local Expert June 7, 2012
Barcelona's most well known Vietnamese restaurant, ME, not only serves the hottest (both spicy and trendy) Asian food in town, but it's now offering live music with dinner. This added touch of 'piano serenation' provides for an even more relaxing evening in a cool and elegant setting.
ME Restaurant — Photo courtesy of Sam Mednick
The restaurant's modern decor complements its designer dishes and tasty, high quality food. The menu is short but varied with options for meat and fish lovers and even a few veggie plates as well.
If you're looking for a classy, but unpretentious restaurant with the best Vietnamese food in Barcelona, then ME is your best bet. Order a few starters to share amongst the table and then order a main dish for yourself.

This page provides a structured representation (serialized as HTML+RDFa) of the description of the entity denoted ("referred to") by the hyperlink that anchors the About: <Entity Label> text at the top.
The data is presented here in the form of a collection of Entity->Attribute->Value (EAV) or Subject->Predicate->Object (SPO) relations.
In conformance with core Web Architecture, the same description data may also be retrieved in a variety of other negotiable serialization formats, which currently include CSV, HTML+Microdata, (X)HTML+RDFa, N-Triples, Turtle, N3, RDF/JSON, JSON-LD, RDF/XML, Atom, and CXML.
Why is this page important?
This page and its neighbors provide 5-Star Linked Data URIs (Web Super Keys) for HTTP-accessible data. These URIs are powerful starting points for serendipitous data discovery using the Web's "follow your nose" pattern, as well as a key ingredient for SPARQL queries over HTTP, ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, OLE-DB, or XMLA connections.
A single link from this page can be the seed of a powerful Web traversal, en route to discovery and exploitation of unimagined insights, using existing tools such as browsers, spreadsheets, business intelligence and analytics packages, basic report writers, presentation generators, project management packages, and many others.
How can I discover more structured data like this?
A variety of discovery pointers are available to users and user agents (software programs) that include:
<link /> relations embedded within the <head /> section of each description page
"Link:" response headers included as part of HTTP response metadata.
Can I expose my own Web resources this way?
Yes! Simply include entries, based on the example below, in the <head/> section of your (X)HTML page, whether static or dynamically generated --
<link rel="related"
title="My Data in Linked Data form"
href="http://linkeddata.uriburner.com/about/id/<scheme-part-of-url>/<host-part-of-url>/<path-part-of-url>"
The scheme part is the first bit of a URI, up to but not including the first colon (":"). The host part includes the port, if any, and is found between the double solidus ("//") following the first colon, and the first solidus ("/") thereafter. The path part is everything thereafter (possibly including a query part or fragment identifier part).

There will be no new blockchain law in Switzerland. At least according to Finance Minister Ueli Maurer. This was announced by the SVP member at the Infrachain in Bern. Nevertheless, the country does not want to miss out on European integration.
The Infrachain is a blockchain conference that is somewhat out of line. Instead of the usual focus on the future of (international) financial technology, the Swiss capital will focus on the needs of public administration and infrastructure operators. In short: all areas that blockchain technology can revolutionize with more efficiency and cost reduction. To discuss this potential, representatives from industry and government met in Bern on 3 December.
Ueli Maurer, Switzerland's Finance Minister, spoke on the subject of crypto trader regulation. According to http://www.onlinebetrug.de/crypto-trader-review, there should be no new law for blockchain technology. Rather, the government wants to adapt existing laws in order to meet the new requirements of the technology. The Blockchain Task Force, which was set up in January, now has two weeks to provide the necessary documents.
According to the magazine, a total of six laws are about to be changed. These include the Swiss Code of Obligations and the Bankruptcy Act – according to Ueli Maurer, the necessary adjustments are to be introduced before the end of this year. After all, it is also important not to miss the European blockchain race.
Countries such as Malta and Liechtenstein are making efforts to achieve effective and attractive regulation. They offer tax incentives for young blockchain start-ups. In Germany, the authorities are not yet quite as united as in Switzerland. But at least there is already a plan to bring early regulation to the German Bitcoin scene. In any case, there is plenty of fertile soil for this.


Test Valley Borough Council have created nine road and seven off road circular routes in the North and West of Hampshire. The following routes have been designed to be followed at any time of the year. All the off-road routes are clearly waymarked with Test Valley Tour discs. More information is available on the TVBC web site and leaflets describing the trails can be downloaded or printed.
View a map of start points for Test Valley Borough Council routes. This map also lets you view the routes, link to the TVBC leaflets and download track files ready to load into your GPS.
The TVBC also run the Test Valley Tour: a series of four events, two on road and two off road that usually attract hundreds of the riders. The routes are fully waymarked and refreshments are provided around the routes and at the end.
Hampshire is one of the best counties for both on road and off road riding. With a little planning you can ride on quiet country lanes avoiding traffic. Off road riding is varied ranging from short gentle family rides to challenging rides with steep hills. Most of the rides pass close to cafes, tearooms and pubs so if you are hungry or thirsty you should be able to stop for refreshments.
Also online, Hampshire has a section on the Hantsweb site showing maps of the whole county at 1:10,000 scale – probably more suited to walking than cycling. Neighbouring Surrey has a more useful interactive map. For more links to digital mapping go to the 'GPS and Map help' page.
For cyclists who use a handheld GPS for route finding tracks are available for downloading. Click on the GPS and Map Help link to find out more about using the maps on this site and GPS navigation.

Partners to advance early-stage discovery
by Mel. J. Yeates	| Email the author
Astex Pharmaceuticals
Heptares Therapeutics
HILLSBORO, Ore. and LONDON—FEI announced recently that it and a collection of corporate and academic partners are forming the Cambridge Pharmaceutical Cryo-EM Consortium as part of a three-year agreement under which FEI will provide sample preparation and data collection services on a Titan Krios cryo-transmission electron microscope (cryo-EM) to the consortium companies for early-stage drug discovery research.
To do this, FEI has partnered with five pharmaceutical companies—Astex Pharmaceuticals, AstraZeneca, GlaxoSmithKline, Heptares Therapeutics and UCB—as well as the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology (MRC-LMB) and the University of Cambridge's Nanoscience Centre.
Richard Henderson, a pioneer in the field of cryo-EM at MRC-LMB, states, "It is delightful to know that the development of cryo-EM, which many people have worked on for many years, has now reached mainstream structural biology. It is particularly satisfying that pharmaceutical companies are keen to evaluate the approach for drug development."
The five companies involved in the consortium will share access to the technology with colleagues from the MRC-LMB and the University of Cambridge in return for expert guidance on the use of cryo-EM technology. FEI's Titan Krios was installed at the Cambridge Nanoscience Centre in May. According to Peter Fruhstorfer, vice president and general manager of FEI Life Sciences, there will be an annual review on the success of the consortium, and a decision will be made about the future activity of the consortium after the three-year agreement is finished.
"The current configuration of the consortium contains all of the necessary aspects to test drive cryoEM successfully in the field of early drug discovery," Fruhstorfer tells DDNews. "FEI contributes the equipment, the expertise to use the vitrification and microscope equipment and training capabilities; MRC-LMB contributes their expertise in biochemistry, sample prep, microscope application and data processing; the University of Cambridge has the high-end facility to house the microscope; and the pharmaceutical companies invest in people being trained and begin pioneering in sample processing for their early drug discovery projects."
The pharmaceutical partners of the consortium will be able to gain higher success rates and effectiveness, says Fruhstorfer. Pharmaceutical companies can test the new technology in terms of target selection, determining ligand binding sites, studying protein-antibody interactions and other analyses, thereby speeding up their drug discovery process. "At the same time, this will be an opportunity to train their scientists in developing necessary cryo-EM skills and expertise," says Fruhstorfer.
Cryo-EM is a form of transmission electron microscopy that has quickly become an important technique used by structural biologists today to obtain molecular-scale 3D information about protein structures. When combined with traditional methods for structure determination, such as X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the resulting models can reveal the structure of complex, dynamic molecular assemblies down to the scale of individual atoms. The consortium's Titan Krios will use the Relion software package, developed by Sjors Scheres at MRC-LMB, to process the image data into a visual 3D model that helps researchers see and understand the structure and function of the protein.
Sir Mark Welland, director of the Nanoscience Centre, said, "This is a great opportunity for researchers across the University to access a state-of-the-art microscope."
"Cryo-EM 3D models allow us to see and understand the workings of protein-based molecular machines that we could not analyze before because they were too large and complex or were resistant to the preparations required for other techniques," stated Fruhstorfer. "The technique was rapidly adopted by leading academic researchers and is now finding its way into early stage discovery and development in the pharmaceutical industry."
The application of cryoEM technology that is most helpful for researchers in the pharmaceutical drug discovery realm, according to Fruhstorfer, is the capability to see the 3D structure of complexes which won't crystallize. X-ray crystallography is the current method of choice for pharma researchers.
"So far, researchers have had to put aside complexes which wouldn't crystallize, since they wouldn't yield any result in a synchrotron beamline," says Fruhstorfer. "CryoEM enables researchers to study proteins in their native environment, and at the same time, complement the powerful methods of X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, which have been in use in pharmaceutical research for a long time. With the resolution now nearing atomic resolution, and the size of proteins coming into the range of interest, cryoEM is a very viable and valuable method to determine the 3D structure."

The Albanian word "kapica" is, of course, a borrowing from the proto-Slavic "kapa", i.e. cap, it's exactly what the headdresses for men and women are called in neighboring Albania, Serbia and Macedonia. The Albanian kapica is made of satin fabric and most likely worn under scarf. only frontal part would remain open; it was decorated with pewter pendants. Our item was bought in the town of Kruja in northern Albania, but similar headdress can be found throughout Albania, and Bosnia, which shares Islam with Albania.

Central Florida Sink Hole Attorneys - Malik Law P.A.
Sinkhole damage to homes has increased substantially in recent years, especially in the state of Florida. Until recently, sinkhole damage was covered under most homeowner's insurance policies. Due to the increase in the frequency of sinkhole claims, many homeowners' insurance companies have begun to separate sinkhole coverage from the coverage available with a standard policy.
A sinkhole occurs when underground materials give way and the surface cover of an area collapses. The erosion of the underground material can be gradual or sudden, and can be caused by a number of different factors. Some sinkholes are caused by natural catalysts, while others may be influenced by the activity of people.
Florida ground is made up of limestone and dolomite, both of which dissolve when exposed to acidic conditions. Long term exposure to acid rain may weaken the stability of these materials underneath the ground and contribute to the formation of a sinkhole. Heat is also a contributing factor in weakening the stability of underground materials.
While the frequency with which sinkhole claims are filed has undoubtedly increased, it is difficult to ascertain whether the actual occurrence of sinkholes has increased. The development of land which is susceptible to sinkholes has increased, so it is more likely that a sinkhole will cause property damage now than in the past. Information about recent sinkholes is also much more readily available, which can contribute to the perception that sinkholes are occurring more often.
Homeowners should be aware of changing sinkhole policies when purchasing homeowners insurance, and should ask about whether sinkhole damage is covered. Homeowner's insurance companies are not required to cover sinkhole damage in some states. Many homeowners do not realize that sinkhole damage is not covered until after a claim has been denied. This can cause financial hardship and make sinkhole damage difficult to repair.
In 2011, Florida Governor Rick Scott passed legislation that allows insurance companies to separate sinkhole insurance from standard homeowner's insurance policies. The law also allows companies to limit coverage to damage affecting the main building and exclude swimming pools, sidewalks, and grounds. This legislation was designed to assist Florida homeowner's insurance companies, as many companies had been adversely affected by the rising costs of sinkhole damage. The law also makes it possible for companies to lower the costs of a standard homeowner's insurance package, though it may foster confusion regarding coverage.
If sinkhole damage is included or has been purchased separately, homeowners often fail to realize the specifications of the policy. Sinkhole policies may require the home owner to cover percentages of the initial cost of repairs prior to meeting claims or may specify items and property that is not covered. Home owners should be sure that all aspects of a policy are understood prior to purchasing sinkhole or homeowner's insurance coverage.
If a ground cover collapse has been caused by collapsing clay or stems from human activity such as abandoned mines, the damage may not fit the insurance company's definition of sinkhole damage. It is important that home owners are wary of differences in definition such as this that may cause a claim denial. If a homeowner has any questions regarding the sinkhole definition in a policy, the home owner should communicate with insurance representatives to make sure that the definition is understood and agreed upon prior to purchasing the insurance policy.
If a sinkhole claim is denied or a lower amount than expected is paid out by the insurance company, home owners have the right to appeal the decision. If the home owner feels that the insurance company has been intentionally misleading or that the decision is contradictory to the terms of the policy, it may be in the home owner's best interest to hire an attorney. Insurance companies will often respond more quickly are favorably to a home owner that has hired an attorney to help overturn a claim denial.

On now-CEO Tim Sloan's watch, the Wells Fargo Wholesale Bank broke money laundering laws and then forged signatures, falsified documents to fake compliance with OCC-ordered fixes.
Washington, DC - Today, United States Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) wrote to Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell once again urging him not to lift growth cap restrictions on Wells Fargo until Tim Sloan is removed from his role as CEO.
Her letter comes in the wake of a deeply troubling new report in Capitol Forum that reveals that, beginning in 2016, employees in the Wholesale Banking division of Wells Fargo "routinely falsified clients' signatures and otherwise doctored paperwork" in order to comply with a legal settlement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) related to violations of anti-money laundering laws.
Sloan led the Wholesale Bank during the money laundering violations that were the subject of the OCC settlement. The new report reveals that he was also in charge while documents were doctored by the bank to falsely represent that it was complying with the terms of that settlement.
In February 2018, the Federal Reserve Board of Governors imposed a growth restriction as part of a consent order that requires Wells Fargo to maintain total consolidated assets below the level it reported at the end of 2017. The settlement requires Wells Fargo to "ensure senior management 's ongoing effectiveness in managing the Firm 's activities and related risks and promoting strong risk management across the Firm" as a condition for the Fed to lift the growth cap.
Based on this new evidence that Sloan not only presided over the Wholesale Bank while it got caught breaking money laundering laws, but also had its employees doctor paperwork to cheat on the terms of its settlement with the OCC, Senator Warren renewed her call to the Fed to require that the Wells Fargo board dismiss Sloan before lifting the growth cap on the bank. Sloan's abysmal leadership at the Wholesale Bank makes it impossible for the board to trust his ability to manage the bank's "activities and related risks."
Senator Warren first called on the Fed to require that Sloan be fired in October 2018, arguing that Sloan's long tenure in senior positions at Wells Fargo during a string of illegal activities made him unable to fulfill the terms of the settlement.
In today's letter, she wrote, "This latest report of Wells Fargo misconduct, if true, provides evidence the bank, under Mr. Sloan's leadership, failed to comply with anti-money laundering laws and then falsified documents to cover up non-compliance with a government order when the company got caught...The Federal Reserve should take no action to remove the growth cap until Wells Fargo replaces Mr. Sloan as CEO."
On January 17, 2019, Senator Warren questioned Tim Sloan on excessively high fees Wells Fargo charged college students.
