Fort Laurens, Ohio
FORT LAURENS, OHIO. November 1778–August 1779. Located near modern Bolivar and subsequently a state historical site, this was the first U.S. fort established in what became the state of Ohio. Work was started after the twelve-hundred-man expedition under General Lachlan McIntosh reached the spot on 21 November 1778. Their march having taken far longer than expected and with no supplies having yet reached Fort McIntosh, seventy miles to the east, the proposed invasion of Indian territory in the direction of Detroit was abandoned. Instead, McIntosh decided to establish the isolated post of Fort Laurens on the west bank of the Tuscarawas River and hold it with a small garrison through the winter, using it as a jumping-off place for an offensive in the spring of 1779.
Fort Laurens was planned by a regular army engineer—possibly Louis Cambray-Digny—and garrisoned by 150 men of the Thirteenth Virginia under John Gibson. McIntosh's troops withdrew on 9 December, before work was completed, and it was not until late December that Gibson was able to report that his post was tenable, though it was far from secure. Short of provisions, Gibson negotiated with friendly Delawares at Coshocton to buy cattle. A detachment under Samuel Sample, an assistant quartermaster, was attacked on its way to get these cattle, losing one man. At the end of January 1779, Captain John Clark of the Eighth Pennsylvania was returning from Fort Laurens to Fort McIntosh with a sergeant and fourteen men when they were attacked three miles from Fort Laurens by seventeen Mingo Indians led by the renegade Simon Girty; there was a loss of two killed, four wounded, and one man captured. Further attempts to supply the garrison were unsuccessful, and by the middle of February the food situation was critical. On 23 February, nineteen men sent to cut wood were attacked, with two captured and the rest killed within sight of the fort.
Shortly thereafter, the fort was besieged by a force composed primarily of Wyandots and Mingoes. Their numbers were variously reported as being from 180 to almost 300, though Gibson thought he faced more than 800 warriors. After 15 days, with his garrison nearly out of food, the Indians, who also lacked food, proposed to lift the siege in exchange for a barrel of flour and some meat. Assuring the Indians that he had rations to spare, Gibson promptly agreed, and the siege was soon lifted.
On 3 March 1779, General McIntosh received a message from Gibson informing him of the situation. On 19 March a force of some two hundred militia and over three hundred Continentals left Fort McIntosh and covered the seventy miles to Fort Laurens in four days to find the siege lifted. A celebratory volley fired by the garrison stampeded the pack train, causing the loss of some horses and supplies and ending the epic on a note of comic opera. The defenders had been living for almost a week on raw hides and such roots as they could find in the area. A council of war decided against McIntosh's plan for continuing the advance toward the Sandusky region. Major Frederick Vernon was left to hold Fort Laurens with 106 rank and file of the Eighth Pennsylvania and was given less than sixty days' supply of food. On 28 March 1779, soon after the departure of McIntosh's column, Indians reappeared and attacked a forty-man woodcutting party, killing two men. By the middle of May, Vernon had to order most of his garrison to return to the east because of a lack of provisions. By the end of the month, with its twenty-five-man garrison on the verge of starvation, Captain Robert Beall of the Ninth Virginia reached Fort Laurens with supplies. In late June, Lieutenant Colonel John Campbell reinforced the garrison with seventy-five well-supplied men and assumed command.
Colonel Daniel Brodhead succeeded McIntosh as commander of the Western Department in March 1779. He soon realized that Fort Laurens was untenable, and on 16 July he informed Campbell that the post would be abandoned as soon as horses could be sent to evacuate the stores. The fort was vacated early in August 1779, but not before two more Americans had been killed in the immediate vicinity. Planning to return at some point, Campbell did not destroy Fort Laurens, which remained intact until demolished after the war.

Catching up with 'Vegas Dave', who won millions by predicting the Super Bowl
Feb 15th 2016 5:18PM
Watch full Video here
A couple weeks ago, we talked with Dave Oancea, better known as Vegas Dave, who is regarded as one of the elite sports handicappers of this era. He was insistent that the Denver Broncos were going to win the Super Bowl — and he won $2.3 million off his prediction.We caught up Dave to get his reaction, talk about baseball and discuss much more.
Dave Oancea
Q: Were you nervous at all throughout the two weeks leading up to the big game or did you stay confident?
A: I was steady. I wasn't going bet the game, but when (the line) went on to 6, I bet an extra $145,000 on them. I had a strong feeling they'd still win game.
Q: Were you nervous during the game, at least?
A: Even when they were up six points, I was still a little nervous. If Carolina got within three or so, they were one turnover away from taking the lead.
Q: Which big win, for you, was sweetest? The Broncos or when you predicted the Ravens years ago?
A: Broncos. The Ravens was like three years ago. I only put $8,000 to win a quarter million. But with Manning and Broncos, when Manning went down, I re-upped the ante again. I saw an opportunity because the odds skyrocketed to 15 to 1. Even if they were to win three and lose three without him, they'd still go to playoffs – and it turned out Osweiler won three of four. I was confident in this pick. I wrote a five-page article a week before the Super Bowl why Denver will beat Carolina, just like I did with the Royals, when I said they'd beat the Mets in the World Series.
SEE MORE: Meet 'Vegas Dave'
Q: Do you ever get upset at Twitter trolls?
A: I'm a business man. People say my picks are fake or photoshopped. I don't know what else people want. I don't care anymore. I don't respond. I already know. They're not at my level. No one wins $2.5 million on the Royals, $240,000 on Holly Holm and, $2.3 million on the Broncos. That's three records in 90 days for $5 million.
Q: Now that football is over, are you actually bored?
A: No. Believe it or not, I've been doing research on baseball already and I already know who I'm taking in World Series. I have more confidence who is winning that than anything in my career. I've never had more confidence. I'm excited this year.
Q: Tell me about the service you offer for those who want consultation?
A: Right now, I'm offering an early bird baseball package with a discount. For advice on the whole regular season and futures picks, it's usually $2,000 but you can get it for $1,500 now. You can play stock market, sure, but my returns are better.
I email you and people can bet what they want. It's 100 percent profit. I teach money management. If you can read an email or push a button, you can do this business – and I'd say 80 percent are $100 bettors.

BREAKING NEWS: POTATO ENCLAVE'S DERANGED DICTATOR – CRIMINAL PAUL KAGAME REINSTATES GATABAZI JEAN MARIE VIANNEY AS GOVERNOR OF NORTHERN PROVINCE
Gakwerere 7th July 2020 East Africa 1,646 Views
Potato enclave's deranged dictator has just reinstated Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi as governor of Northern Province.
On Monday, 26th May 2020, potato enclave's deranged dictator removed Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi from his post as the governor of the Northern province, on accountability/embezzlement case.
On 26th June 20, during an RPF executive committee meeting which was held at RPF headquarter in Rusororo, dictator Paul Kagame humiliated Gen Emmanuel Gasana, Clever Gatete and Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi, referring to them as incompetent corrupt officials. And ten days later, the dictator has reinstated Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi as the governor of Northern Province after humiliating him in front of ruling party cadres.
Letter to reinstate Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi
Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi is a well known goon within the satanic regime. He has raised through the ranks of RPF, the ruling party by singing and praising criminal Paul Kagame 24/7. Within the hierarchy of Rwanda Patriotic Front, he is known as "Umukiga wa Kagame," Kagame's mukiga.
In 2000, Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi was recruited to the ruling party, Rwanda Patriotic Front by death merchant Maj Gen Jack Nziza who was then a Lt Colonel, and head of the Directorate of Military Intelligence (DMI). He first operated as Jack Nziza's informant within the Hutu community.
Gatabazi Jean Marie Vianney
After an excellent job of spying his community without sparing his own relatives, an impressed Maj Gen Jack Nziza forwarded Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi's names to RPF Secretariat for a seat as a Member of Parliament. All oppressed and enslaved Rwandans know that members of Rwanda's Parliament and senate are directly appointed by RPF secretariat through the approval of criminal Paul Kagame.
In 2003, with recommendation of Jack Nziza, intelligence informer, Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi was appointed an RPF Member of Parliament, a position he served until 2017 when criminal Paul Kagame appointed him the governor of the northern province. While in Parliament, oppressed and enslaved Rwandans still remember of his dramas, he always refers a bloodthirsty dictator – criminal Paul Kagame as "Jesus's twin." While in Parliament he once told oppressed and enslaved Rwandans that, "no one in the country has the capacity, potential or knowledge to lead the country like Kagame. President Kagame is the best gift that God has ever given to Rwanda."
It is through his sycophantic dramas that he caught the eye of criminal Paul Kagame. And today, criminal Paul Kagame, a narcissistic character who loves praises has recalled back his inept minion after more than a month in the cold.
Jean Marie Vianney Gatabazi was dismissed from being a governor of northern province on 26th May 20, and he has been reinstated on 7th July 20. Criminal Paul Kagame operates like a medieval king, he appoints whenever he wants, dismisses anyone under any pretexts, re-appoints you, humiliates, incarcerates or kills you whenever his tired of you.
Corporal is merely a messenger of criminal Paul Kagame's polical, economic, social and military madness.

Capital of Galicia, Austria; 180 miles east of Cracow and 60 miles from the Russian frontier. Its population in 1869 was 87,109 of whom 26,694 were Jews; in 1890 it was 127,943, including 36,130 Jews; in 1900 there were 44,801 Jews in a total population of 159,618.
The history of the Jews of Lemberg dates from its foundation in the middle of the thirteenth century. The Jews were among the first settlers, with Ruthenians, Armenians, Tatars, and "Saracens"; they even preceded the German and Polish immigration. These "Saracens" were Karaites, a remnant of the Byzantine Chazars, who migrated from Asia Minor to Ruthenia and Lemberg. The city's records of 1356 distinguished the Karaites as "Saracens" and other Jews as "Judæi" (comp. Sokolow, "Sin'at 'Olam," p. 82, Warsaw, 1882). German Jews expelled from their fatherland settled in Lemberg after its capture by Casimir the Great (1340), who gave the Jews equal rights with the Christians. The Jews of Lemberg enjoyed the same rights under Casimir's successor, Ludwig of Anjou.
Originally, the Jewish quarter was located within the city walls, on the southwest side. The Jews that came later took up their abode outside the walls, in the environs. For a long time the congregation in the city had its own rabbinate, independently of that of the Jews outside; but about the beginning of the seventeenth century they were united under a chief rabbi, with a special bet din for each congregation.
Under Casimir IV. (1447-91) the Jews of Lemberg obtained certain privileges on payment of an exorbitant tax to the king. A general conflagration which visited Lemberg on Aug. 5, 1494, destroyed most of the Jewish dwellings. The Jews were permitted to rebuild on easy terms and, as an inducement to stay, were released from part of their taxes.
Under Sigismund I. the Jews of Lemberg engaged in many commercial enterprises, but the German merchants, fearing Jewish competition, induced the Polish noblemen to check the Jewish expansion of trade. In 1521 the magistrate of Lemberg joined the magistrates of the neighboring cities in a petition to the king to abrogate all commercial privileges enjoyed by the Jews. In a letter from the magistrate of Lemberg to that of Posen the Jews are referred to as "infidels and dangerous competitors of Christian merchants." The Cracow diet was induced to propose such measures "to save the Church from ruin." The king, however, refused to sanction them. In his veto he maintained that the Jewish commercial activity was essential to the welfare of the community at large. It was shown that out of a total of 3,700 merchants in Lemberg only 500 were Christians; that the Jews lived economically and were satisfied with small gains, while the Christians were spendthrifts and extorted large profits from purchasers. Furthermore, the Jews promoted a large export trade with Wallachia and Asia Minor, which exceeded the imports and thereby drew money into the country. Jewish business privileges then extended only to the sale of wax, leather, and cattle. The sale of cloth was not permitted them, except at regular fairs. Yet the Jewish merchant was indispensable to the inhabitants of Lemberg; even after the fire in 1527 it was necessary to promise the Jews twenty years' immunity from taxes and to extend their cattle-dealing privileges from 500 to 2,500 head per annum to each dealer as an inducement to them to stay in Lemberg.
Moses Niemiec was made a citizen in return for his conveying a piece of ground to the city authorities for the erection of a public building. Certain privileges and restrictions of trade passed by the diet in 1581 were renewed in 1592 (see Caro, "Gesch. der Juden in Lemberg," p. 37).
While the Jews in Lemberg suffered restrictions in business, they were not subjected to religious persecutions. Indeed, the Ruthenians suffered just as severely from trade restrictions. It is to the credit of the magistrate of Lemberg that he protected the Jews against the force sent by Pope Pius II., in 1463, under one Szczesny, to aid Hungary in her struggle against the Turks. Szczesny's soldiers would have slain the Jews, but the magistrate of Lemberg shut the gates against them until the Jews had secured themselves by the payment of a ransom. The persecution of the Jews in Lemberg did not commence before Sept. 1, 1592, when the archbishop, Solikowski, invited the Jesuits to build a church in Lemberg; the date of that event is marked in black letters in the Jewish calendar. It was the beginning of the anti-Jewish movement in Lemberg, and blood accusations and desultory attacks soon culminated in murder and plunder. Jesuit machinations in 1603 resulted in the confiscation of the Jewish synagogue and grounds for a Jesuit church and school, on the pretext that the Jewish title to the property was invalid. The Jews protested, but the courts decided against them, and they were compelled to deliver the keys of the synagogue to the Jesuits. Fortunately for the Jews, their opponents were divided; Rabbi Kalman of Worms and his wife, Rosa ("the golden Rose"), appealed to Archbishop Zamoyski, and finally succeeded in reclaiming the property, after a lapse of four and a half years, by paying a ransom of 4,000 guilders. On Purim, 1609, the synagogue was rededicated with great rejoicing, and a special hymn by Isaac ha-Levi was sung. The hymn was afterward inserted in the liturgy for the Sabbath following Purim and was recited annually.
In Sept., 1648, the Cossacks under Chmielnicki besieged Lemberg and reduced the town to the verge of starvation, withdrawing upon receivingan enormous ransom, a considerable part of which was paid by the Jews.
The Jesuits concocted another blood accusation in 1728, and incited the followers of Shabbethai Ẓebi, the false Messiah, against the Jews in Lemberg. The Frankists had been solemnly excommunicated by the rabbis of Lemberg in 1725; the Jesuits, therefore, induced the Frankists to revenge themselves by embracing Christianity and accusing the Jews of using Christian blood for the Passover service.The canon De Mikulski later arranged for a disputation in Lemberg in June, 1759, between the rabbis and the Frankists, which resulted in renewed persecution of the Jews of Lemberg.
Lemberg was, also, a center of modern Ḥasidism; but such men as Joseph Perl (1773-1839) and Solomon Löb Rapoport (1790-1807) opposed the movement, the former by the establishment of a model high school for Jewish and secular instruction and with his persuasive pen, especially in his "Megalleh Ṭemirin," written in a peculiar Hebrew jargon, and exposing the methods of the Ḥasidim. Rapoport founded a literary circle with a library supported by Judah Löb Mises (d. 1831), thus providing ambitious young men with a liberal education.
Lemberg is well provided with Jewish institutions. The first synagogue was built by the Karaites in 1582. The Ashkenazic synagogue, the title to which was contested by the Jesuits, followed in 1632; this ancient building has capacious vestry-rooms that are now used as separate synagogues. Since the Karaites removed from Lemberg their synagogue has been occupied by Rabbinite Jews. Altogether, Lemberg has three large synagogues and nine smaller synagogues, two batte ha-midrashot, the "Chorschule," or "Temple" (dedicated in 1846), a commodious Jewish hospital, an orphan asylum, a technical school, regular Talmud Torah schools, and several yeshibot. A new Jewish hospital costing 800,000 crowns ($160,000) was founded Oct. 1, 1902, to commemorate the seventieth birthday of Prof. Moritz Lazarus.
Title to the old Jewish cemetery was granted by the city authorities in 1414, when several burials had already been made, as indicated by a tombstone, of a youth named Jacob, dated 1348, and by another tombstone, of Miriam, or Marysia, daughter of Samuel, dated 1380 (Tammuz 2d). This cemetery is surrounded by a stone wall, with Karaite graves close to the wall. The second cemetery was opened in 1856.
Lemberg has seven Jewish printing establishments, the first dating from 1611. During the eighteenth century it was the principal Austrian center for Hebrew publications. Since the removal of censorship in 1848 the printing of Jewish works has greatly increased. As a commercial and industrial center Lemberg is even more important than Cracow. Next to the Germans, the Jews control the greatest amount of business.

Bengaluru is top destination for real estate investments
Nearly 13 per cent Rs 44,450 crore that PEs have invested in property market from 2013 have come to the city
Sobia Khan
Kailash Babar
Updated: November 10, 2015, 14:01 IST
BENGALURU | MUMBAI: The IT capital has surpassed both the commercial and political capitals of India as the top investment destination in the property market.
Nearly 13 per cent of over $6.7 billion Rs 44,450 crore) that PEs have invested (.in India's property market from 2013 through the first half of 2015 has gone to Bengaluru.
Global property consultancy Jones Lang LaSalle's (JLL) latest Asia-Pacific City Investment Intensity Index ranks the southern city among the top-20 destinations globally. At the 20th position, it is well above New Delhi (34th) and Mumbai (42nd). JLL had earlier this year listed Bengaluru among the top-20 technology-rich cities globally.
"Despite being a smaller city than the political and financial capitals of India, it has managed to attract a lot of investment in comparison of its size," a JLL report said.
The investment intensity index provides a measure of real estate market liquidity and is a barometer of a city's overall attractiveness to investors based on direct real estate investment over a three-year period. "Real estate investment is generally difficult for foreigners in India, and investors looking to take part in market growth may need to go through routes such as debt deals and joint ventures with local partners," said Anuj Puri, chairman and country head at JLL India."The index advises investors to continue to seek core business park or office investments in Bengaluru."
Leased office assets such as IT parks and IT-SEZs attracted significant interest from foreign investors as they continue to ramp up their portfolio of office space. This is primarily due to low risk owing to high occupancy levels along with stable rental yields and significant potential for appreciation in capital values. "Bengaluru's office market has seen the highest commercial space absorption in the country and continues to retain the spot. This, along with the consequent job creation, would throw up opportunities in residential space," said Rubi Arya, executive vice chairman at Milestone Capital Advisors. "We are keenly watching the market given the momentum."
Milestone has invested more than Rs 120 crore in an asset at Electronic City in south Bengaluru. The fund has been receiving interest from high net-worth individuals for picking up stake in this fully leased property , Arya said.
Ambar Maheshwari, chief executive of private equity funds at India bulls Asset Management Company, said both the residential and commercial markets in Bengaluru were more vibrant and mature than any other property market in India.
"As a thumb rule, every 100 sq ft of commercial space absorbed leads to demand for 600 sq ft residential area. In terms of commercial space, Bengaluru is the biggest market and that explains investors' interest," Maheshwari said.
Cities like New York, London and Tokyo almost always rank at the top in commercial real estate investment volumes. The top five cities in the Asia-Pacific region are Tokyo, Singapore, Seoul, Sydney and Hong Kong, ranked by three-year rolling direct real estate investment volumes though the second quarter of 2015.

Pediatric Acute Kidney Injury
Tiziana Fragasso, Zaccaria Ricci, Stuart L Goldstein
Ospedale Pediatrico Bambino Gesu
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) in children is a serious condition with an important impact on morbidity and mortality. Onset can be insidious and it is frequently unrecognized in the early phase when the therapeutic opportunities are theoretically more effective.
SUMMARY: The present review focuses on the most recent epidemiology studies and the progress in pediatric AKI (pAKI) research. Standardization of definition (presented in the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) and novel biomarkers have been developed to help clinicians recognize kidney injury in a timely manner, both in adult and pediatric populations. Strengths and weaknesses of these diagnostic tools are discussed and the clinical scoring system (Renal Angina Index), which aims to provide a rational context for biomarker utilization, is also presented. Even if effective treatments are not currently available for established AKI, specific preventive approaches and some promising pharmacological treatments will be detailed. Renal replacement therapy is currently considered the most effective way to manage fluid balance when severe AKI occurs. Key Messages: Great efforts in pAKI research have today led to new strategies for early AKI detection and prevention strategies. Further studies have to be conducted in the next future in order to definitely improve the outcomes of pediatric patients experiencing this deadly syndrome.

Home	Upcoming Books	Best Upcoming Books: October 2020
by Janise September 4, 2020
October is a spooky month, but it's also a great month to stay inside and read! The fall weather and the falling leaves always makes for a great reading background and I love curling up with a good book and a Pumpkin Spice latte around this time of year.
This month has some great titles that I can't wait to get my hands on. The Mirror Man by Jane Gilmartin is a book that I can already tell is going to keep me up all night until I finish it. A man replaces himsself with a clone and things go wrong? That is just my kind of story! This is a really good month for science fiction as Kim Stanley Robinson also has a new book coming out called The Ministry for the Future that deals with climate change.
Of course, you can't do October without horror and I'm already mentally preparing myself for The Hollow Places by T. Kingfisher. A woman discovers a portal to another world and that sounds fun, right? But this portal leads to a place with monsters who feed off your fear and that does not sound fun at all!
I'm also very excited for a couple of thrillers/mysteries coming out this month. Confessions on the 7:45 is straight out of Alfred Hitchcock as two strangers meet on a train and the next thing you know one of their nanny's goes missing. This month also sees Stuart Turton's follow-up to The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, a book called The Devil and the Dark Water that looks like a great read.

Want to know the history of the Spanish Royal Family? Looking for a Spanish Royal Family tree? Our guide to the royal family of Spain gives you the facts & information you want to know.
Since 1978 Spain has been following a system of Constitutional Monarchy with Parliament. This system is very similar to the one followed in Great Britain. The King of Spain is the head of the state and is also responsible for representing the country at an international level. The Royal Family of Spain is comprised of the direct descendents of the current king Juan Carlos.
The Royal Family of Spain does not have free reign to rule. The constitution has limited the powers and roles of the king and all the current or future Monarchs to ceremonial purposes only. Although the king can propose a head of a governmental department it is not necessary that the government accept that proposal. Currently, Spain is ruled by King Juan Carlos I and his family. Before him his grandfather had given up the throne and moved to Rome along with his entire royal family. King Juan Carlos I was born in Rome on 5th January, 1938 but he returned to Spain in 1948 to start his educational life. He married Princess Sofia of Greece on 14th May, 1962 and became the King of Spain on 22nd November 1975. He showed his inclination to restore democracy from the first speech that he delivered as a king.
In June 1977 the first free elections in Spain were conducted since 1936. The new government passed the current constitution on 6th December 1978 which also comprises of the role of the King of Spain that was to be adopted in future. Although the current King of Spain showed his support for democracy through his act his actions were put to test when the Spanish military decided to take matters in their own hands believing that King Juan was not really in favor of democracy. However, their doubts were put to rest when the king addressed the nation on 23rd February 1981 to show his support towards democracy. The people of Spain showed their support to the Kings' decision by conducting a march of 1 million people on the streets of Madrid on 27th February 1981.
Although the Royal family of Spain does not have much power regarding the government they still retain their titles along with all the rights associated with it. Given below is a list of the titles and the style with which the Royal Family of Spain is addressed.
3. The Prince of Spain, The Prince of Asturias (Crown Prince) holds the titles The Royal Highness.
4. The wife of The Crown Prince holds the title Her Royal Highness.
5. The eldest daughter of the Crown Prince The Infanta Leonor de Borbón y Ortiz holds the title Her royal Highness.
6. The youngest daughter of the Crown Prince The Infanta Sofía de Borbón y Ortiz holds the title Her Royal Highness.
7. The eldest daughter of the king The Infanta Elena holds the titles with the style Her Royal Highness while her husband holds the title His Excellency.

Opioid use is 'waning' in Pa. hotspots as other drugs rise in popularity, Drug and Alcohol secretary says
Elizabeth Hardison
DDAP Secretary Jessica Smith testifies before the Senate Appropriations Committee on Monday, March 4.
One of Pennsylvania's top drug watchdogs said Monday opioid use is showing signs of decline as other drugs appear more popular in hotspots across the state.
"The notion of the opioid crisis is starting to wane," Jennifer Smith, secretary of the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs, told the Senate Appropriations Committee. "We have seen an uptick in cocaine and meth particularly in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Cambria County, and Johnstown, [which] are the first areas to show new trends across the state."
Westmoreland County District Attorney John Peck recently told TribLive detectives in Western Pa. "are seeing a resurgence of cocaine and methamphetamine as drug users increasingly shy away from heroin." Why? A fear of fentanyl, the synthetic opioid linked to many of the state's fatal overdoses.
Smith also said that her agency is seeing more drug use among "ethnically diverse populations," particularly low-income Pennsylvanians and people of certain nationalities. For instance, Bhutanese immigrants are showing "tremendous need" for alcohol abuse treatment services.
Smith said her office is keeping a "very close watch" on the switch from opioid to cocaine and methamphetamine abuse.
She did not recommend that the state dial back its opioid treatment programs, though, and said Pennsylvania must maintain its opioid treatment capacity as it prepares to confront new types of drug addiction.
Smith also told senators that a growing number of Pennsylvanians are taking advantage of telemedicine services, especially for cognitive behavioral counseling and drug treatment services they may not be able to access locally.
Pennsylvanians who lack reliable transportation, or whose work schedules prevent them from attending in-person appointments, can receive counseling services over the phone or computer from licensed medical professionals, she said.
These services are particularly valuable to rural Pennsylvanians, she said, though demand for telemedicine is widespread across the state.
In addition to cognitive behavioral therapy, many patients turn to telemedicine for specialty services, evaluations, or other diagnostic services they cannot find close to home, Smith said.
This year, her office plans to partner with the Department of Human Services to mount an educational campaign to inform Medicaid patients that telemedicine appointments are often eligible for insurance reimbursements.
Many patients assume that telemedicine services are not covered by Medicaid or private insurance, Smith said.
She hopes that as the field grows in popularity among Medicaid patients, private insurance providers will start to offer reimbursement for remote medical care.
A bill introduced last session by Sen. Elder Vogel, R-Beaver, would have required insurance companies cover "medically necessary telemedicine" if the same care is provided in person. The legislation passed the Senate unanimously, but didn't get a vote in the House.
Elizabeth Hardison is the Capital-Star's Senate reporter. She previously covered the city of Harrisburg for TheBurg Magazine.

2. These burgers look super easy to make!
3. It has veggies in it, so along with lean turkey, it could be quite a healthy burger option.
Except for the turkey and rolls, I had all these things in stock- I love when recipes turn out that way!
1. Round up all of your ingredients (except the rolls and optional toppings, duh). Dump them all in a mixing bowl. Smoosh together with a fork, spoon or your hands.
2. Form small patties from your turkey mixture. Cook on a medium-high grill for about 3 minutes per side (making sure it's cooked through!).
3. Slide them into their buns and "dress" them up with your favorite toppings! Per Kim's reco, I made some cilantro-chili mayo (chop up fresh cilantro, and mix it up with some mayo and chili-garlic sauce). Deeeelish!
These burgers were really delicious, indulgent with the sauce, and healthy (I used lean turkey and light mayo). The spicy kick just hit the spot. And – I made these burgers in about 10 minutes. If you're looking for a super quick, simple, healthy and delicious meal, definitely give these burgers a try!
Wow, I adore Thai food and have got to try this! Thanks for the recipe!
These look delicious and fun! I love it when recipes that look complicated are actually quick and easy!
I don't eat meat, but if I did, I would definitely make those. They look so yummy!
These look so good! I started a healthy lunch club at work recently & this would be the perfect recipe for one of my days! Thank you! I have a feeling these are going to be a huge hit!
Bookmarked to add to my upcoming menu! Thanks!
Ummm, these look absolutely delicious! I'm going to try them next week!
I saw these on Kim's blog and have been meaning to try them, they look wonderful!
HOLY COW THESE SOUND AWESOME. My love of both turkey burgers and Thai food required the use of caps lock there, that's how excited I am!

Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) is a condition in which an excessive preoccupation with an imagined physical imperfection/anomaly is the most marked symptom.
Other symptoms may include a fear of ridicule, an avoidance of mirrors, repeatedly seeking reassurance about the perceived defect, frequent measuring of the 'imperfection, and attempts to hide or camouflage the problem area. BDD can lead to a great deal of social isolation and distress.
Body Dysmorphic Disorder is sometimes considered to have associations with Social Phobia and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. It can be associated with eating disorders, in that the 'body dysmorphia' can be seen to have similarities with the dissatisfaction with, and distorted view of, body shape and size seen in anorexia nervosa.

Delivering a World First for Decarbonisation
Back to Customer Success Stories
Working in partnership with Low Carbon Farming
ESB's Smart Energy Services partnered with Low Carbon Farming to design, build and manage a renewable heating solution for the UK's largest greenhouse complex. Located in East Anglia and covering two sites and 29 Hectares, the project now serves as a critical proof of concept in meeting the challenges of the UK's post-Brexit food security needs, as well as its 2030 carbon reduction targets.
The Ask
Low Carbon Farming came to us with an ambitious vision to achieve a world-first: deliver a large scale greenhouse heating solution that would not rely on fossil fuels.
"If we are to meet our carbon reduction targets, we need bold, innovative solutions like the one ESB's Smart Energy Services delivered for Low Carbon Farming"
– James Samworth, Partner, Low Carbon Farming"
The scale of the project presented a unique design challenge, while the global pandemic created additional logistical issues. Among them: the procurement of the heat pumps from Northern Italy, the heart of Europe's outbreak. In the midst of nationwide lockdowns, a tremendous cross-border collaborative effort secured their delivery in March 2020.
Inspired by the observation that water recycling plants expel tens of thousands of litres of clean warm water per second, at temperatures upto 25oC, the solution was designed to capture the heat energy wasted.
Two heat exchanger buildings capture 72MW of waste heat from nearby water recycling facilities and transport it 2.5miles to the greenhouses. CHP units provide the electricity for the heat pumps, while providing the necessary CO2 to feed the plants.
72MW of thermal power generated—enough to heat nearly 20,000 new homes
90% of heat required produced on-site by heat pumps
Most efficient system of its kind in Ireland and the UK
75% lower carbon emissions than traditional greenhouses
ESB's Smart Energy Services has already delivered projects for more than 300 large businesses across Ireland and the UK.

If I had to choose one fault that I have as a mom it would be that I do too much for my girls. I do this for many reasons, but one of those reasons is that it is just plain easier to do it for them.
Please tell me I am not alone. Please tell me you have the same tendencies. It has been something that has been on my mind for quite some time. It has been something I've been working on VERY intensely for the last 6 months.
Self-reliance and potential came up as the next values to focus on and I counted it as a sign. I wanted to start the month out great by rounding up some simple family home evening ideas on self reliance and potential. I love all these ideas because they show ways to be self reliant AND that we have amazing potential. The key is to just remember that we do.
All of these ideas are simple. Some of them might require some materials and a little prep, but nothing extreme. I feel like as a busy mom I can't add extreme things to my schedule. I hope you don't mind (something tells me you won't).
I found a lot more options on potential and I think that is what kids need to understand. If they truly understand their potential then they will want to be more self reliant. I have four lessons on potential and one on self-reliance listed below. I hope you enjoy these ideas and they can help your kids throughout the month feel their divine potential and establish a little more self reliance.
I am most definitely interested in this one. dissertation writing service Just concept that I'd put up and can help you realize.
You can find more family ideas at reviews on Essaydune! I always use it for a chance to find something apopriate!


NAPA VALLEY, Calif. — The California sun is just beginning to burn off the morning fog that's cascading over the Mayacamas Mountains as we make our slow ascent to the To Kalon vineyard's most prized blocks of vines.
It is a comfortable bike ride, and by the time we reach "I Block", where glasses of chilled Fume Blanc from this very vineyard are waiting, the sun has obliterated any sign of the cooling mist that shrouds Napa's west border most mornings.
It's only early May but already the vines are showing lush foliage as tiny flowers begin to emerge, setting off an annual ritual that turns grapes into wine in the most important wine region in the U.S. It will be a stressful season of relentless sunshine beating down on the vines with little or no relief from rain until fall. Up here, in the northwest corner of Robert Mondavi Winery's share of the To Kalon vineyard, snuggled up against the Oakville bench, these 68-year-old vines, believed to be the oldest Sauvignon Blanc in the New World, are a freakish mess. There is no discipline, no geometric order to the freestanding, head-trained and gnarly-twisted vines planted in wide rows, 8-foot by 12-foot (454 vines per acre). These bush vines are thick, unruly and utterly deranged in their untamed state.
They are totally impractical, of course, yielding small, yet intense berries that in a good year produce a paltry half a ton of fruit per acre. It's hard for an accountant to see the upside of the old vine To Kalon vineyard planted in this manner. A number cruncher would tear out all the Sauvignon Blanc, justifiably so, and plant high-density vines in 4-foot by 4-foot rows (2,750 vines per acre) all to Cabernet Sauvignon. Yeah, $200-$350 a bottle, compared to $85 for the top To Kalon I Block Sauvignon Blanc, that's what sends the ledger from red to black in a hurry. And with vineyard land in Napa selling at $300,000 an acre and up … well, you can do the math.
But at the Mondavi winery, it's not always about the bottom line. They have history to preserve, a reputation to uphold, and their proudest legacy lies right here in this beautifully incongruous vineyard planted in 1945 at the highest point of the winery's holdings.
I Block is living proof of the past, the link that gives Napa Valley its rich history.
To Kalon "The Beautiful" was so named by one of Napa Valley's first wine pioneers, Hamilton Walker Crabb, shortly after he planted his first vines in 1868.
Crabb and other early grape growers and winemakers, including George Yount, Gustave Niebaum and Thomas Rutherford, established an industry that would grow to 140 wineries by the end of the 19th century. Several of those wineries still exist today: Beaulieu, Beringer, Charles Krug, Chateau Montelena, Far Niente, Mayacamas, Markham Vineyards, and Schramsberg Vineyard.
Crabb's To Kalon vineyard consisted of 130 acres of vines by 1877 and he was making almost 200,000 litres of wine a year using an astonishing 400 different grape varieties as he experimented with what worked best in the well-drained, gravelly loam soil on the slopes and alluvial, loam, and clay on the valley floor of his unique vineyard.
Crabb died in 1899 and his beloved To Kalon changed hands several times through the 1900s before being bought by Robert Mondavi where, at 53 years old, he established his iconic winery in 1966 surrounded by the vineyard.
It was Mondavi's primary goal to combine European craft and tradition with the latest in American technology to make Napa Valley wines of world-class quality.
Mondavi, who died in 2008 at the age of 94, acquired 450 acres of To Kalon, the lion's share of the vineyard, which is also owned by Beckstoffer Vineyards (90 acres), Opus One (100 acres) and the University of California at Davis (20 acres). The vast majority of the vineyard is planted to Cabernet Sauvignon with supporting red Bordeaux varieties for blending and a little Semillon to blend in with the old-vine Sauvignon Blanc.
Grand Cru is not a phrase used officially by anyone in Napa Valley, but it is whispered in certain circles when referring to the To Kalon vineyard.
According to Master of Wine Mark de Vere, from the Constellation Academy of Wine, terms like Village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru are used more as a metaphor to describe the various parts of To Kalon with the highest quality coming from the back of the vineyard (the vineyard rises 23 m to 152 m front to back).
De Vere admits to an obvious bias, as he is employed by Constellation Brands, the company that now owns Robert Mondavi Winery, but there is no doubt To Kalon provides some of the most sought after fruit in Napa Valley, most of it Cabernet Sauvignon that's undergoing replanting to high-density vines using various trellising systems as the older vines succumb to age.
Aside from fruit Mondavi and Opus One own, To Kalon grapes are sold to over 23 different wineries in the Napa Valley, most from grower Andy Beckstoffer's holdings (UC Davis sells much of its fruit to Silverado). The vast majority of those bottlings are clearly marked To Kalon on the label, which is only permitted if 95% of the fruit is from one single vineyard. A bare minimum price for these wines seems to hover around $90 a bottle with prices reaching $350 and beyond. It has been suggested that the more you sell your Beckstoffer To Kalon wines for, the higher the price you are charged per ton to purchase the fruit; a sliding scale, if you will, that can reach $25,000 a ton (the Napa average hovers between $6,500 and $7,500 per ton).
Tasting a collection of To Kalon wines together shows a common element that seems bound by terroir and only separated by the artistry of the winemaker. It is, as Jannsens, Dowell and Durling suggest, the quality of the place that shines through all the wines and a refinement of the tannins that make these wines some of the most sought after in the Napa Valley.
As an ode to Robert Mondavi's oft stated credo: that his wines can stand beside the best in the world, we are poured, in order, Krug Grand Cuvee Brut, Domaine Gros Clos Clos-Vougeot Musigni 2009, Chateaux Margaux 2006, Sassacaia 2008 and Penfold's Grange 2006 all served one after the other as we move slowly around the To Kalon winery that was built exclusively to make the wines from grapes that were harvested from the To Kalon vineyard.
In 2001, Janssens and Robert Mondavi unveiled the To Kalon Cellar. It took five years to design and build the 20,000-square-foot state-of-the-art winery and it represents a complete re-imagining of the vinification of red wine fruit from To Kalon. The 56 5,000-gallon Taransaud oak fermenters form the backbone of the red winemaking program. The winery is entirely gravity flow, gently allowing wines to age in the first-year barrel room where the winemakers choose from among 10 different coopers to achieve the complexity and balance they seek.
It is a spectacular sight, all clean lines and fine oak in perfect symmetry from top to bottom where, three floors down, new French oak barriques house the wine for nine months before moving to another cellar for a further nine months. The wine spends a further year in bottle before being released.
It is the Robert Mondavi Reserve that is the flagship wine of this storied winery, and the wine most closely associated with To Kalon even though you won't find To Kalon anywhere on the label. It only contains 90% of that vineyard's fruit, a blending decision that Janssens hints could change with the 2012 vintage.
She says the winery wants to honour the legacy of Robert Mondavi and finally putting his beloved To Kalon on the label of its most important wine would be the perfect expression of gratitude to the man who nurtured Napa's most famous vineyard to its modern glory.
Aside from the Reserve Cab, Mondavi also bottles a rare small-production Cabernet Sauvignon simply called To Kalon made from the oldest vines in the vineyard and available only at the winery for $250, an I Block Fume Blanc (which is a term invented by Robert Mondavi to differentiate it from sweeter style Sauvignon Blancs) from old vines that sells at the winery only for $85, the Fume Blanc Reserve from a blend of older and newer To Kalon vines that sells for $50, and Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon made from 100% newer To Kalon plantings and sells for $55.
Some other wineries to produces wines from purchased To Kalon fruit include: Alpha Omega, Bacio Divino Cellars, Bounty Hunter Rare Wines, Morlet Family Vineyards, Paul Hobbs, Provenance, Realm Cellars, Schrader Cellars and Tor.
The Five Dot Ranch ribeye, blood rare and as tender as warm butter, is served with roasted sunchokes, Maitake mushrooms and braised ramps with Bordelaise sauce. It is as perfect in the mouth as it looks on the plate but it is the wine on the table that makes me swoon. Four decades of Mondavi Reserve Cabernet from the vineyard that surrounds us on this warm spring evening. Our view from the floor to ceiling windows that look out onto the To Kalon vineyard is breathtaking as our stemware is charged with Cabernet Reserve 2009, 1999, 1989 and 1979.
Forty years of To Kalon, a snapshot through time that shows the complete transformation of this wine as it ages ever so gently. The subtle freshness and brightness of dark fruits, fine tannins and spices in the current 2009 vintage give way to lovely tertiary flavours of black olives, garrigue, herbs and bay leaves with softening tannins and integrated spices in the older vintages. These are wines connected by their place, the sprawling vineyard from which they are grown, To Kalon, or simply and utterly appropriate, The Beautiful.
Robert Mondavi To Kalon 2009, Oakville, Napa Valley ($250, 94 points) — This is the epitome of the To Kalon vineyard, the benchmark, and a pure expression of single-vineyard Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. It is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from two To Kalon blocks planted in the 1970s. It is complex and just about as elegant as a Napa Cab can be with aromas of wild berries, crème de cassis, black currants, bay leaves, black licorice, garden herbs, loam and cocoa. It is full and broad on the palate as the fruit builds in intensity and the elegant oak stylings and array of yummy spices chime in. It is a stunning wine with assertive tannins and verve through the finish. Nicely integrated now but will develop further for years to come.
Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve, Oakville, Napa Valley 2009 ($145, 93 points) — Mondavi's flagship wine and considered by some to be one of Napa Valley's "First Growths." This contains just over 90% fruit from To Kalon with a bit of Cab Franc and Petit Verdot added to the blend. It is a grand wine with notes of blackberry, dark plums, kirsch, cedar smoke, thick cassis, black currants, black olives, graphite, bay leaves and a smidge of wild herbs, spice and loam. This is a big wine that's driven by rich, thick fruits on the palate that are complex and balanced by equally profound spice notes, polished tannins and a vibrant core of acidity. I would buy and hold for a few years or serve now with a big juicy ribeye steak.
Provenance Cabernet Sauvignon TK2 Beckstoffer To Kalon 2010, Oakville, Napa Valley ($95, 93 points) — This beauty shows rich aromas of cassis, blackberry, cherry-kirsch, loam and spices to go with wild herbs and cedar notes. It is simply gorgeous on the palate with soft, supple fruit that is ripe, concentrated and silky in the mouth. This is heady stuff, luxurious and complex yet not at all chunky with a gentle vibrancy through the long, lingering finish.
Alpha Omega Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon South 2010, Oakville, Napa Valley ($150, 92 points) — A lot going on here on the nose: Blackberry, dark plums, cassis, tobacco leaf, cocoa powder, wild berries and sweet oak spices. The flavours are expressive and compact on the palate with a baker's rack of spice harmoniously woven in. It's all backed up by chewy tannins and fairly decent acidity through a long finish.
Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville 2010, Oakville, Napa Valley ($55, 91 points) — I don't think you'll find a To Kalon wine for less money than the Oakville from Mondavi. It's a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 4% Merlot and 1% Malbec from newer To Kalon plantings. The 2010 vintage is slightly cooler giving this wine a bit more finesse on the palate. The nose shows classic black fruits of cassis and blackberries with cherry fruit, mocha, peppery spices, licorice and tar notes. There is a raciness on the palate from higher acids but the fruits are ripe and bold with integrated spice, oak and tannic structure.
Robert Mondavi To Kalon I Block Fume Blanc 2009, Oakville, Napa Valley ($85, 92 points) — Fume Blanc is just Mondavi's way of telling consumers this is a completely dry Sauvignon Blanc. I Block is the oldest planting of Sauvignon Blanc (1945) believed to exist in the New World. This is heady stuff with a vibrant and expressive nose of gooseberry, citrus-lime, lemon zest, white flowers, crushed rock and then tropical-peach aromas as you swirl the wine in the glass. It has such racy acidity in the mouth and that is matched by profound minerality, freshness of fruit and depth through the finish. An extraordinary wine, but you will have to go the winery to get it.
Robert Mondavi Fume Blanc Reserve 2011, Oakville, Napa Valley ($50, 93 points) — This is made from 100% To Kalon fruit, 30-40% from old plantings. The nose is an intense mix of pear, citrus, guava, white flowers, minerals, passion fruit and lovely oak spices. It has weight and vibrancy in the mouth to go with succulent fruits and creamy spices through a long and glorious finish. Such a powerful white wine yet maintains balance and freshness through a long finish.

A new video highlights how Tarantino and Rodriguez's divisive project continues to inspire filmmakers today.
Something of a critical and commercial flop on its release, Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's Grindhouse likely failed because it was a big budget imitation of a low budget form. In its wake however, a new generation of filmmakers have followed in Tarantino and Rodriguez's footsteps, but with budgets closer to those of the films the pair initially set out to homage. This video from Rossatron looks at the ongoing legacy of Grindhouse.
