4 breakthrough 'firsts' in spine surgery this year

Written by Anuja Vaidya and Laura Dyrda
Clinical innovation moves at breakneck speed, and this year saw a number of 'firsts' in spine surgery. Here are four that could potentially change the spine industry:
First ever spine surgery with 3D-printed vertebral body
In August, spine surgeons made history when they performed the first spinal disc replacement implanting a 3D printed vertebra. Three-dimensional printing technology uses digital models of a patient's anatomy to construct a "printed" customized implant in almost any material. The technology isn't new per se, however applying it to the orthopedic device space is cutting-edge.
The spinal procedure in China using a 3D-printed vertebra replaced the second vertebra in a 12-year-old boy's neck. After the procedure, the patient's head was framed with pins and will remain that way for three months. Dr. Liu Zhongjun performed the procedure and said the customized 3D printing technology made the surgery stronger and more convenient than other procedures.
The 3D printing in medical applications market is expected to reach $0.9 billion by 2019, according to a new report from Transparency Market Research. North America held the largest market share for 3D printing in medical applications in 2012, and several device companies are looking to this technology. Medicrea offers 3D-printed UNiD ALIF customized cages, which are part of the company's entire patient-specific spine implant offerings. In August, Oxford Performance Materials was honored by the New Economy Magazine for developing an additive manufacturing technique with ultra-high performance PEKK to print patient-specific functional and biocompatible prosthetic implants. OPM is the only company with FDA clearance to manufacture 3D polymeric orthopedic implants.
It may be years before spine surgery with 3D printed implants becomes the standard of care, however, it has the potential to change the spine industry as we know it.
First U.S. fetoscopic spina bifida repair successful at Texas Children's Hospital
The first two-port fetoscopic procedure to repair spina bifida in-utero in the United States was performed this year by surgeons at Texas Children's Fetal Center and Baylor College of Medicine, both located in Houston. Michael Belfort, MD, obstetrician and gynecologist-in-chief at Texas Children's Hospital, and William Whitehead, MD, a pediatric neurosurgeon developed the procedure. The team also worked with Dr. Jose Luis Peiro and Dr. Elena Carreras of Vall D'Hebron Hospital in Barcelona, Spain.
The surgery features an in-utero, single layer, suture repair through two different four-millimeter incisions in the uterus. Physicians use a carbon dioxide gas technique during the procedure to repair the spina bifida.
Years of preparation and training went into developing the program both nationally and internationally. Before performing the procedure, Drs. Belfort and Whitehead performed more than 30 simulated procedures using the simulator including two full simulations, gowned and gloved under actual operating room conditions with a full support team.
While the procedure was successful, the final outcome remains to be seen. "While we have had a technical success with this procedure, we will only be able to truly know the outcome once the baby has been delivered and we are able to assess the spina bifida repair," says Dr. Whitehead.
Spinal cord stimulation results in voluntary movement for paralyzed patients
In April, a study was published in Brain showing that paralyzed spinal cord injury patients may be able to regain voluntary movement in their legs and feet. The study was conducted by researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles and the University of Louisville (Ky.), who implanted spinal-cord stimulators made by Medtronic into the three paralyzed individuals, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
Neuromodulating the spinal circuitry with epidural stimulation combined with physical therapy has resulted in three individuals being able to wiggle their toes, flex their legs and even stand independently for moments at a time. Two of the three individuals had complete paraplegia and previously could not move at all.
Spinal cord stimulation currently does not allow a paralyzed individual to walk again, however, the researchers found that in addition to standing, the therapy does help improve a number of other bodily functions, such as bowel and bladder function, according to a CBS News report.
The research was partially funded by the National Institutes of Health and the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation, the CBS report notes.
Stem cell transplant reverses spinal paralysis
An Anglo-Polish team of physicians in Britain pioneered the new technique that has reversed spinal paralysis for the first time. The medical team implanted harvested cells — known as olfactory ensheathing cells, which repair damage to nasal nerves — into an 8mm gap in the spinal cord of Darek Fidyka, a Bulgarian who was confined to a wheelchair after being stabbed in the back in 2010.
Physicians reported that the cell implants on the two "stumps" of the spinal cord slowly restored the nerve fiber connections between both sides, returning feeling and movement to Mr. Fidyka's legs. Around 10 months after the surgery in 2012, Mr. Fidyka was able to walk with the aid of braces and a walking frame.
The new technique has thus far only been applied to Mr. Fidyka. The medical team and other experts emphasize further testing.
Professor Geoff Raisman, chair of neural regeneration at University College London's Institute of Neurology, who led the research team in Britain, told BBC News that what had been achieved was "more impressive than man walking on the moon."

So interesting! Watching the advancements in spinal surgeries and issues through the past 10 years has been amazing. Keep doing those roll-a-thons and walks for spinal cord research, folks!

It seems everyone is talking about "detox" or considering a "cleanse." Toxins are said to be the problem, but when was the last time anyone explained what detoxes or cleanses actually are?

ICELANDIC SCRIBES is an individual research project funded by the European Commission through a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship (grant no. 654825) running from 2016–2018 at the University of Copenhagen.
While much work has been carried out on medieval manuscripts, literary patronage, and reading culture (both within and outside the Nordic region), less attention has been paid to these issues in the centuries after the Middle Ages and Reformation. While the introduction of print in the 15th century certainly altered literary production throughout Europe, its influence is now understood as less definitive than was once thought, and in Iceland especially, people continued to copy books by hand until the early 20th century, keeping alive medieval scribal practices long after they had ended elsewhere.
As a cross-disciplinary investigation of the society and culture of post-Reformation Iceland, the project is moreover from a wider perspective advancing our understanding of Icelandic literature and society, and bringing new perspectives to the wider fields of socio-cultural history, the history of literacy, and the history of the book.


May 3, 2018 – San Diego, CA – Carlsbad Charitable Foundation (CCF), an affiliate of The San Diego Foundation, marked its 11th year of giving at its Annual Grant Awards Celebration on May 2 at the home of members Yvonne & Carm Finocchiaro. At the event, CCF and its members awarded grants to three nonprofit organizations with programs that will help combat poverty and homelessness within the Carlsbad region.
According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development 2017 Point-in-Time Count, homelessness has increased 5 percent in San Diego County over the past year, with more than 9,000 San Diegans living on the streets or in shelters and an estimated 160 living in Carlsbad. The 2018 CCF grants aim to be part of a regional solution by supporting programs that give Carlsbad residents the necessary tools to avoid or move out of homelessness.
The $15,000 grant to Interfaith Community Services will support the Carlsbad Family Self-Sufficiency Program, which provides residents with access to comprehensive programs that empower local youth and families to lead independent and thriving lives. Thanks to the grant, residents will have greater access to critical support, such as employment support, nutrition assistance and housing and social services. In addition, local families struggling with poverty will be provided transportation assistance through bus passes and gas vouchers so they can travel to school and job interviews or work sites to gain or retain employment.
The $60,000 grant to Solutions for Change will support the sponsorship of up to six Carlsbad families. Families will be enrolled in the award-winning Solutions University program, where they will be provided vital life skills classes, individualized case management and career preparation. The Solutions University program helps create strong, independent families that are capable of pursuing every opportunity they want in life, from raising a happy family, to creating a successful career, to buying a home and sending kids to college. Once the program milestones are met, the families will move into supportive permanent housing in Carlsbad.
The $15,000 grant to Voices for Children will support Transitional-Age Teens and Homelessness Prevention (TTHP) Program and provide six Carlsbad foster youth with a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for an entire year. Through the program, Voices for Children will help local youth become self-sufficient, contributing members of society. become self-sufficient, contributing members of society. With a CASA by their side, foster teens will be better prepared for a successful adult life outside of the foster care system and will realize their full potential as future community builders and leaders.
CCF is supported by local philanthropists and businesses working together to improve the quality of life for everyone in Carlsbad. Since 2008, CCF has granted more than $800,000 to more than 45 programs helping grow a more vibrant community so that families today, as well as the next generation of Carlsbad residents, have a place they are proud to call home.

Saratoga Associates worked with the NYS Office of Parks Recreation and Historic Preservation to prepare designs to revitalize the beach area at Chenango Valley State Park. Nestled within Chenango Forks, New York, Chenango Valley State Park still holds wonder from the ice age. The parks is home to two Kettle Lakes, Lily and Chenango, that were created when the last glacier of the area melted away but left behind huge patches of buried ice which melted to form the lakes and bog.
Saratoga worked closely with the regional park administration to identify challenges related to the aging infrastructure and contemporary user trends. As lead consultant, Saratoga Associates was responsible for complete professional design services through construction administration for architectural and site improvements. The design for the reconstructed beach area provided new swimming and water play amenities that meet current recreational expectations of park patrons. The project focused on an expanded beach area that improved visual connectivity and integrated pedestrian paths along the lake, while adding a brand new splash pad area, boat rental and lifeguard station, docks, and other recreational areas. Project costs were evaluated and a phased plan for logical implementation was developed. The Saratoga Associates team ensured the design maximized parkgoer enjoyment while being sensitive to the natural setting, incorporated environmentally sustainable improvements, and improved swim area circulation to prevent degradation of water quality.
This past summer, the State Park celebrated its updated features just in time to savor what was left of the warm weather here in New York. The beach was filled with many happy patrons and the new waterslide and splash pad saw lots of children's smiles.

Letter: What do you have to lose?
I must congratulate Sarah Austin on her belief that she is in such good shape, having never committed a sin that needs to be atoned for, and her belief that I'm OK, you're OK ["Reject proposed Bible class for Florida schools," Feb. 10].
She also seems to believe that humanity is getting better and better by its own power. That's atheism isn't it? How's that working out for you?
I know I'm just an old, white male, so my opinion doesn't count for anything, but when I went to school we had prayer regularly and asked for help and strength from our Lord Jesus Christ. Now no mention can be made of that in school under penalty of the law.
There were plenty of guns around. As a matter of fact, I can remember taking a BB gun to school. What I don't remember was failure to respect authority, and I never even thought about any of my schoolmates coming to school and shooting even one person, let alone dozens.
I will close by quoting C. S. Lewis: "If you're right and I'm wrong, I have lost nothing. But if I'm right and you are wrong, you have lost everything."

Make Me King – "The Whisper is the Hint"
Make Me King are a five-piece pop-punk types from Lancashire, whose take on the ubiquitous genre is particularly sharp. Long since a style given up for dead – oh lovely, another hand-clapped chorus – this fresh take should pique the most cynical of interests. It's the theory of sour milk – everyone loves milk, tea drinkers or not, it's the threat of the contents being sour which leads us all to give the bottle its surreptitious sniff, however involuntary. These lads are not the bad stuff, they're fresh from the fridge refreshing.
And so before I hijack any more Rafa Benitez quotes on milk….
….I'll start with "If You Can't Be Good, Don't Get Caught", zipping and tip-toeing through an interchange between pointed ska and pop-punk, and throughout a variety much more surprising and mature than you'd first expect. The interplay and production quirks sprinkle through "Every Truth or Dare" (with its hint of blues in the vocal melody) and the stripped "Wake The World".
There is particularly dangerous territory in these parts, because all groups have to do is time-signature-switch once too often and they're trapped in Lost Prophets Hell; but follow the melody fairies down the lane with too many skips in the step and there's the Fightstar comparisons hanging off every branch like torn sheep's wool. Fair play to Make Me King for knowing how much of each influence to hat-tip whilst strutting along with their own confidence. It's unfortunate that the title track is the weakest here, though with so many reasons to be cheerful it's likely whispers will become shouts before long.


The methods used are as follows: analysis of scientific literature, trial expert evaluation, average comparison method, and Kendall's coefficient of concordance.
Kendall's coefficient of concordance represents the degree of concordance in the number of found rules among examined files.
Species Associations: The Kendall Coefficient of Concordance Revisited.
Friedman's [chi square] statistics was used to test Kendall's coefficient of concordance (W) for statistical significance.
Equal orders were verified by Kendall coefficient of concordance W.
The performance of the models was estimated by comparing the differences in coefficient of determination (R2) root mean square error (RMSE) relative error (RE %) and coefficient of concordance (CC).
Interrater reliability was assessed using the coefficient of concordance (Kendall's coefficient) between measurements performed by five competent examiners (Slusarz, Beuth, & Kasprzak, 2003).
Internal consistency reliability coefficient of the instrument was established using Kendall's coefficient of concordance.
The consistency level of the group of experts is determined by the coefficient of concordance W (Kendall 1970) (i=1, 2,.
Kendall and Bernard Babington Smith, Kendall's coefficient of concordance W is a measure of the agreement among several m quantitative or semi-quantitative variables that are assessing a set of n objects of interest .
The coefficient of concordance values (Table 11b) is almost 0.
If weight values (points) given by experts to AMP quality criteria (indices) presented in Table 1 are available, the correlation of their opinion is determined by computing the Kendall's coefficient of concordance W.


Wade-in waterfowl hunts within Mid-America Hunting Association are wetlands without blinds. Waterfowl hunters would reserve anyone of a number of wade-in spots, mostly for ducks, have that reservation for a day or two, set their own blind in addition to their own decoys.
Wade-in waterfowl hunts areas are typically for duck hunters that like to set up on their own with layout boats or their own make shift blinds. This is true unguided duck hunting with the benefit of no public wetlands hunter mentality. Recent years have seen more and more retriever dog hunters using the wade-in areas in conjunction with our permanent blind wetlands to work their dogs for the enjoyment of the dog work more than the ducks.
Several designated wade-in areas once had blinds but the bird pattern from year to year with fluctuating water levels was unpredictable and it's to the hunter's advantage to set up own their own. This combined with increased requests from mostly retriever hunters for more shoreline areas has resulted in expanded wetlands and tree cutting.
If you reserve a wade-in area we will not allow another member to hunt the same area on the same day unless you request us to do so.
Many hunters with inexperienced young dogs prefer wade-in areas so the dog is not confined to a blind and the dog has greater visibility of the game.
On several of our properties with irrigation lakes the landowners discourage permanent blinds because they interfere with their equipment during the off season. Many of these lakes are designated wade-in areas that are greatly under utilized, but on the right days as good or better than many of our wetlands with permanent blinds.
Each wade-in pool is sufficiently large enough for an entire day's hunt and with the right spread and calling any nearby flights should be able to be decoyed in just as well as in the duck blind areas.
The water surface looks deceptively small in this picture. It is much larger than it looks. This entire area to include that beyond our lease is lowlands that collects and retains water through the year and gives no elevation for a good picture. This is an example of how our self guided hunts work. We make this type of information available and then the hunter must experience the hunt for himself. The confidence this spot is a good do it yourself duck hunt location is that we spent money to make it good.
Pictured is a wade-in area on one of our wetlands. The "wade-in" designation means a shooting pool within a wetlands where the wetlands has duck blinds on other pools, just not the one marked as "wade-in" on the wetlands maps.
The collection of ducks and geese show this to be more likely one of our open water hunts. This group that generously sends in pictures each year prefers to hunt a combination of wet and field sets over wade-in, farm ponds and watershed lakes.
The interesting part for many is that good duck and goose hunting is available on other than the Association's enhanced wetlands. Many other Association lands in the right spot yield good hunts.

Earth and Water 10: Ceramic Art in the St. Croix Valley
Oct 21 to Nov 27
Northern Clay Center in partnership with The Phipps Center, presents Mark Lusardi
Friday, October 21, 6:00 p.m. – Gallery Talk with Mark Lusardi, free
Opening reception: Friday, October 21, 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.
Mark Lusardi holds a B.A. in fine arts and has extensive training in glaze theory and raku firing from both the University of Maine at Presque Isle, University of Minnesota–Twin Cities and Haystack Mountain School of Crafts in Deer Isle, Maine. He has been conducting raku and glaze workshops throughout western Wisconsin, eastern Minnesota and Maine for over 30 years. Currently, Lusardi is a clay technician and glaze designer at Continental Clay Company, and has a studio on Bass Lake in New Richmond, Wis. His own ceramic work is both wheel-thrown and hand-built.
For this exhibition, Lusardi has chosen to show a body of work inspired by his time spent in Acadia National Park, to thematically tie into the concurrent exhibition in The Galleries, National Parks – Personal Narratives. He writes, "My work is a reflection of the mystical land of Acadia and the area surrounding Mount Desert Island. It's a passage of my time spent wandering the many trails and conquering my darkest fears while sailing in the aftermath of a hurricane at the hands of a weathered sailor, yet feeling alive and inspired by Mother Nature in all her splendor. The sheltered coves and the melody of the water coursing underneath the rocks in a sound so long and drawn out you would have thought you were in a distant realm.
"As with all my work, my inspiration comes from the essence of those moments, dreams and travels while living in Acadia. Even though I cannot remember all the details of my experiences I have found a solution that allows me to relive a fraction of those moments – I call them spirit maps.
"I hope that, in some way, you may see your own travels mirrored in the patterns and shapes of my work and that it sends you off into some hidden glades and sheltered ponds for your own reflections."
Northern Clay Center and The Phipps have joined forces on an exhibition partnership aimed at increasing the profile of ceramic artists located throughout the lower St. Croix River Valley watershed. This cross-state collaboration features three ceramic artists annually in the Atrium Gallery at The Phipps.

Hearken back to the launch of the original Xbox Live, when online play on consoles was a novelty, when gamer stereotypes were edgy and totally in your face - and they didn't wear pants, either.
Anyway, the video is an amusing look back at how Microsoft originally promoted its Xbox Live service at the beginning of the decade, as the company prepares to pull the plug once and for all. It's funny to see these things promoted as groundbreaking features - like voice-chat mute, for example - that we've come to hold as absolutely necessary to the experience.
We've gotten rid of that "over-enthusiastic, hard-core, in-your-face, edgy" gamer stereotype since then, right? Please tell me we've gotten rid of it.
However, I wasn't really aware that "doesn't like to wear pants" was ever part of the mainstream gamer stereotype. Seriously - DarkMaster is in his boxers pretty much the entire movie, and it's rather distracting.

Recreational marijuana use may not be legal everywhere in the US, but the enormous economic boost it has offered to the few states that do allow it should entice others to follow-suit.
Colorado's Decision To Legalize Pot Just Makes Cents; and Dollars!
The war on cannabis over the past few decades has cost the nation an outrageous amount of money. From the countless man hours, to the prosecution and imprisonment costs, this is money that could be going towards education, social programs and emergency services.
What many people fail to account for, is the individual cost of being prosecuted for smoking a joint. It can virtually ruin someone's life, which is ludacris.
I want to discuss the financial benefits though, plain and simple. Money talks, and by keeping marijuana illegal we are leaving hundreds of millions of tax dollars on the table.
In 2014 alone, Colorado had roughly $700,000,000.00 in total legal marijuana sales. Of this, $76,000,000.00 was collected by the taxman.
The tax collected through legal cannabis sales has been earmarked by the state to go towards public schools, infrastructure repair, maintenance and upgrades, prevention programs as well as public health initiatives.
All of this money came from 1 year of sales in Colorado alone, and sales in 2015 are expected to surpass the previous year by quite a bit.
The current tax rate for cannabis in Colorado is 10%. However this rate is going to be lowered to 8% in July of 2017.
Oregon is playing with the idea of a 20% tax rate for marijuana purchases.
There are two real options we can take, either we keep cannabis illegal in the majority of the nation, continue to pour money into an endless war on grass and imprison our citizens. Or we can finally tax marijuana sales and make it a safer, regulated industry that contributes to society.
People are concerned that their young children may be more inclined to try and use marijuana if it becomes legal in their state. A legitimate concern, but one that has been disproven by a reputable study. In states that have legalized medical marijuana use, there has been no increase in teen usage.
Colorado has become a kind of cannabis vacation destination, and even a marijuana mecca in some cases. This has substantially boosted the housing market, with some properties appreciating over 8% in just one year.
Jobs. A popular topic for any politician and news channel, because jobs matter. Well, by legalizing marijuana sales we are creating thousands of new jobs. From the shop owners and workers who dispense it, to the green-thumbed gardening wizards who grow it.
The countless medical benefits of marijuana have been well documented, even the nation's top doctors are starting to admit there are some seriously beneficial clinical uses for this herb. So let's allow every individual to make up their own mind and purchase marijuana if they so desire. All the while we can reap the tax dollars and help improve our economic state as opposed to worsening it with the continued war on weed.


Welcome to the Addiction Support Podcast! This week, my dear friend shares her story of having an alcoholic father. Then being raised by a single mother of 3 in a new country. No family to support them.
She had her first drink at age 13 – was able to recover, then turned back to alcohol as an adult.
Today she is celebrating and embracing her recovery while helping others do the same!
Also, please leave an honest review for the podcast on iTunes. Ratings and reviews are extremely helpful and greatly appreciated! They do matter in the rankings of the show, help more people find us, and I read each and every one of them.
Special thanks to my brave anonymous friend for joining me this week. Until next time!

Hippeis era denumirea dată de greci pentru cavalerie. Hippeis (gr. ἱππεύς) era cea de-a doua clasă socială din Atena, compusă din bărbați care îți puteau permite să întrețină un cal de război în serviciul statului. Rangul acestora poate fi comparat cu Eques romani și cavalerii medievali.

His legendary, unconditional obsession with his trade has led him to become the publisher of choice for an A list of artists that include Martin Parr, Ed Ruscha, Robert Adams, Jeff Wall and Robert Frank among others.
Steidl is himself an artist in his way, travelling the world to discuss the saturation of colours, the perfume of ink and the comparative qualities of paper with his clients, then returning to his presses in Göttingen, Germany to assail his staff with a minutiae of details in his quest for perfection.
Steidl's passion is infectious, his client list unique and the quality of his work without parallel. These, together with his idiosyncratic approach have made him a gift for documentary film makers Gereon Wetzel and Jörg Adolph who spent a year following the meister and his herculean schedule: ten appointments in a day; Los Angeles, Astoria, Nova Scotia and Vancouver in four days, then months at the presses.
Their resulting film: 'How to Make a Book with Steidl' is a gem of a document. Steidl appears to flit at superhuman tempo between meetings with Karl Lagerfeld in Paris and Günter Grass in Schleswig-Holstein. Then there are hours of travelling, of waiting between appointments and the quiet poetry of loving conversations about art with some of the greatest photographers of the twentieth century. And all the way through the viewer is compelled by the energy with which drives his vision through everyone and everything like a relentless steamroller.

Providence Mayor Elorza Ends Water Privatization Plan
LPR News April 5, 2019 Providence Mayor Elorza Ends Water Privatization Plan2019-04-05T11:38:01-05:00 Featured, LPR Sports Network, News No Comment
Community groups and indigenous leaders rejoice as the mayor, responding to public opposition, cancels plans to privatize the regional water system
On Thursday, March 4, 2019, Providence Mayor Jorge Elorza announced that he is backing away from a plan to privatize the city's water system. The Land and Water Sovereignty Campaign, along with community activists across the state, have led the call to keep Providence's water in public hands.
Since February, the Rhode Island state legislature has considered legislation to enable the privatization of the Providence Water Supply Board. With his announcement today, the mayor requested that the bill sponsors remove it from consideration.
"We are glad to hear of Mayor Elorza's decision to stop all legislative efforts towards monetization and privatization of our water," said Cristina Cabrera, AKA Chunchip Deer Spirit, Core Team Member, Water Is Life – Land & Water Sovereignty Campaign & Environmental Justice Director of Indigenous Affairs, Pocasset Pokanoket Land Trust. "As indigenous people, our care and our responsibility lies in protecting our land and water from any form of commodification, capitalization or privatization. This is the beginning of a long road to ensure that our water remains protected for future generations. We welcome the opportunity to work with the City of Providence on a participatory budgeting process for its financial concerns, but Water is not up for lease or sale. Mni Wiconi."
"As a member of the core group of the Land and Water Sovereignty Campaign, a Standing Rock water protector, and 30-year resident of Rhode Island, I would like to thank everyone who diligently participated to stop the monetization of our water supply, that provides 60% of Rhode Islanders with potable drinking water," said John Gonzalez of the Pimicikamak Cree Nation. "This is not the end. This is only the beginning for Land and Water Sovereignty, our indigenous and most heavily impacted communities."
"We are glad to be working in collaboration with the Land & Water Sovereignty Campaign to protect the interest of our water," said Sequan Pijakì, aka Chief George Spring Buffalo, Chief Executive Officer, Pocasset Pokanoket Land Trust. "The purpose of the Pocasset Pokanoket Land Trust is to advocate for indigenous lands to ensure rightful stewardship and protection of our territorial lands and water. We celebrate the Mayor's decision to stop all legislative efforts towards monetization and privatization of our water. It is of utmost importance to hear the cries of our Mayan Ancestors in support of Indigenous land and water sovereignty."
"Water is a human right, and efforts to commodify it run counter to the public good and do great harm to all, but especially the most vulnerable in our communities," said Gillian Kiley, Cranston resident. "I am grateful for the leadership of City Council members like Rachel Miller, Kat Kerwin, and Seth Yurdin on this issue, and am pleased that Mayor Elorza heard the broad opposition voiced by the community and responded by withdrawing support for these bills. Going forward, the city of Providence and the state of Rhode Island must recognize that water is a precious, essential public resource that cannot be commodified."
"Leasing or selling water is just a roundabout way of making Rhode Island residents pay for a problem they didn't cause with their water bills, housing stability, and health," said Janice Gan, resident of Providence. "A better approach would come from the ground up, through the leadership of the Indigenous people who have long managed this watershed and the frontline communities who are already being harmed by poor infrastructure, toxic facilities, and an ongoing history of extraction and exclusion."
"We are glad that the mayor has listened to the community, and hope this will be the beginning of a process in which Rhode Islanders, the region's Indigenous people, and city, town and state legislators will work together to ensure safe, clean, accessible and affordable water for all for years to come," said Providence resident Kate Schapira.
"We applaud Mayor Elorza for listening to the overwhelming community opposition to privatization, and for making the right decision to be a champion for public water," said Food & Water Watch Senior Northeast Organizer Nisha Swinton. "The city's water system is too vital to lease off to the highest bidder. These privatization deals result in higher rates and diminished service, and leave ratepayers paying off what is essentially a high-interest loan for decades to come. Providence should seize this opportunity to find a solution to its financial challenges that protects its public water system and honors its commitments to public workers."
"This is a clear victory for people in Providence and across the state. It's just the latest in a string of cities around the globe that have cast out privatization and affirmed the human right to water," said Corporate Accountability Senior Water Organizer Alissa Weinman."Given the industry's track record of rate hikes, labor abuses, and corner cutting that jeopardizes public health, privatization in Providence threatened both communities and the city, all in the name of profits. From Lagos to Pittsburgh to Providence, people are sending a clear message to the private water industry: 'Water is for people, not for profit.'"
The Poor People's Campaign Steering Committee released this statement: "We are committed to lifting up and deepening the leadership of those most affected by systemic racism, poverty, the war economy, and ecological devastation and to building unity across lines of division. In this spirit we join in support of the Water Is Life – Land and Water Sovereignty Campaign to protect the interest and indigenous sovereignty of territorial land and water. Water is life and neither water nor people are up for lease or sale."

Visible minorities over-represented in Middlesex-London cases
Jennifer Bieman • The London Free Press
A medical professional makes an assessment at the COVID-19 assessment centre at Carling Heights Optimist Community Centre in Londo in October. Derek Ruttan/Postmedia Network
Visible minorities are vastly overrepresented in London-area COVID-19 cases nine months into the pandemic, the health unit says in a new report one observer hopes will influence the agency's strategy through the second wave.
The percentage of London-area cases in visible minorities is nearly double their proportion of the general population, the latest data from the Middlesex-London Health Unit show.
Visible minorities over-represented in Middlesex-London cases Back to video
Of the COVID-19 cases reported in London and Middlesex County, 32.4 per cent identified as visible minorities, people who are non-white and non-Indigenous.
Visible minorities made up 17 per cent of the population in London and Middlesex County in 2016, the latest year for which data are available.
"COVID-19 has exposed some systemic barriers and systemic issues of oppression that don't often get noticed," said Trevor Hinds, a London anti-racism advocate and principal consultant of Black Unicorn Collective.
"Racialized people have all sorts of intersections of oppression. Racialized people tend to make less money and have less access to education. Racialized people face barriers of racism and stigma. All of these things come to light when seeking out services like health care."
The data stems from 1,145 COVID-19 cases in London and Middlesex County between Jan. 24 and Oct. 31.
The health unit report highlights the relationship between social determinants of health, including race and income, and COVID-19. The data may be used to shape health equity strategies and public outreach initiatives as the pandemic drags on.
"It's a place of vulnerability that people in decision-making positions have to look at. If they acknowledge they built a system to reach people who look like them, that's a tough pill to swallow," Hinds said.
"As soon as they get over that piece and recognize that it's not about holding onto guilt, it's about really reaching out and connecting, I think you can start to see some change."
Though there are shortcomings with the health unit's data on household income, Londoners making less than $30,000 don't appear to face the same disproportionate fallout as racialized groups.
The percentage of people infected with COVID-19 who reported gross income of $30,000 or less is nearly identical to the proportion of the London-area population in that income bracket.
The health unit found 15.4 per cent of confirmed cases reported total pre-tax household income below $30,000 in 2019. Families of two or more people that earn less than $30,000 fall below the poverty line, based on Canada's official Market Basket Measure.
In 2015, 15 per cent of the area population met that criteria.
But local data on the income levels of COVID-19 cases has limitations, the report said.
About 88 per cent of people who were infected answered the household income question, but of those, 48.8 per cent didn't want to provide a number or said they didn't know their household income. The limited numerical data makes "meaningful comparisons between income groups difficult," the report said.
What's more, only 37.5 per cent of the cases had household size recorded. Without robust data on household size, determining if the COVID-19 case earning less than $30,000 comes from a home that is below the poverty line — as opposed to being a single person or post-secondary student — is challenging.
Middlesex-London officials have been collecting race and socioeconomic data on COVID-19 cases since April. At the time, it was the only health units compiling such data. Answering the demographic and race questions is voluntary.
In June, following a provincial directive, the health unit added questions on income, language and household size. As before, people could choose not to answer.
The health unit report also revealed:
The youngest reported COVID-19 case was two and the oldest, 102. The mean age for cases in London and Middlesex County is 44.
The average age of people with COVID-19 who were admitted to hospital was 69 and the mean age of people requiring an intensive-care stay was 65.
The average age of cases where COVID-19 was the primary cause of death was 82.
Six of the cases reported they were homeless or underhoused.
The new data are a prime opportunity for the health unit to examine its strategy and build connections to populations struggling the most, Hinds said.
"I'm hoping that this elicits some change, not just in conversations, but in how they go about doing their work."

"My father passed away when I was one year old, it was my mother who paid for my school fees.
"My mother worked as clothes cleaner.
Furthermore, my mother can wash clothes faster than me.
After finishing the cleaning of his mother's hands, the youth quietly washed all the remaining clothes for his mother.
" Can you tell me what have you done and learned yesterday in your house?"
" please tell me your feelings."
I know now what is appreciation. Without my mother, there would not the successful me today.
" This is what I am looking for to be my manager. I want to recruit a person who can appreciate the help of others, a person who knows the sufferings of others to get things done, and a person who would not put money as his only goal in life. You are hired.
A child, who has been protected and habitually given whatever he wanted, would develop "entitlement mentality"and would always put himself first. He would be ignorant of his parent's efforts.
For this kind of people, who may be good academically, may be successful for a while, but eventually would not feel sense of achievement.
You can let your kid live in a big house, give him a Driver & Car for going around, Eat a Good Meal, learn Piano, Watch a Big Screen TV. But when you are Cutting Grass, please let them experience it. After a Meal, let them Wash their Plates and Bowls together with their Brothers and Sisters. Tell them to Travel in Public Bus, It is not because you do not have Money for Car or to Hire a Maid, but it is because you want to Love them in a right way. You want them to understand, no matter how rich their parents are, one day their hair will Grow Grey, same as the Mother of that young person. The most important thing is your kid learns how to appreciate the effort and experience the difficulty and learns the ability to work with others to get things done..

On the 12th February the South Bank BID attended a major conference concerning the various ramifications of local development in London.
With the huge amount of public and private developments underway across London, Lambeth and Southwark are at the centre of a rapidly changing landscape. As new buildings and homes are constructed, businesses and residents are placed under pressure, and communities are forced to adapt.
In order to help address the huge number of concerns arising from a hitherto unprecedented amount of local development taking place, the Anglican Church organised a consultation event with business and government leaders to discuss how developments such as Battersea Power Station will affect residents and businesses, and consider the possible impact changes have on the city of London as a whole. The meeting was named: 'Battersea to the Barrier: London's Creative and Flourishing Waterfront' and it was held at Lambeth Palace, the residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby (who was in attendance).
South Bank Employers' Group were invited to attend this prestigious gathering as it has been at the centre of changes affecting both Lambeth and Southwark for the past 25 years. Alongside the South Bank BID, SBEG actively works with major businesses to make the area a better, more vibrant place for all.
Have a look at the Battersea to the Barrier website for further information.


A delightful and historic country cottage located within special rural surroundings in Enys on the edge of Penryn. Spacious and glorious accommodation full of character with beautiful sheltered South facing gardens and plenty of parking. One of a kind and an absolute gem! THE LOCATION Located on the outskirts of Penryn on the road towards the well regarded Enys Botanical Gardens, this is a special rural spot but from a safe and select collection of properties. One enjoys being on the edge of an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' close to the waterside villages of Mylor Bridge and Flushing. The closest town is Penryn, a historic and ancient market town with an active community and excellent everyday facilities including a nursery, primary and secondary schools. The town enjoys good communication with Falmouth via its bus service and train station, which links to Truro city and mainline Paddington. Penryn is enjoying something of a renaissance witnessed in the regeneration and development of Penryn's inner Harbour area providing riverside accommodation and extensive and exciting dining options. Penryn Campus is occupied by both Falmouth and Exeter Universities sharing buildings, facilities and services as part of the combined universities in Cornwall project; this recent transition into a University town is creating a real 'buzz' for the area. Falmouth town (approximately 2 miles) provides comprehensive shopping, schooling, business and leisure facilities and was recently voted 'the best place to live in the South West' in the prestigious Sunday Times guide.
THE PROPERTY The Belle Vue House Private Academy for Boys was established here in 1804 by a Mr Barwis, who was formerly a master of a London academy. An extract from the West Briton and Cornwall Advertiser of the day states 'Mr Barwis begs leave to recommend it to Gentlemen of this part of the country as fully calculated to remove the expensive inconvenience they have hitherto laboured under – namely that of sending their sons to London and other distant parts of the kingdom". The cost was 25 guineas a year and apparently had a countrywide reputation. Mr Barwis died in 1825 with the running of the academy taken over by his two sons, one of whom moved to Penzance and opened the Penare Academy. It appears that the Bellevue Academy was closed when Benjamin Barwis II retired. By the 1861 Census the school was a private establishment with just the family and staff resident.
Fast forward to 2019 and Belle Vue is a small community comprising seven period properties of which No 7, Gardener's Cottage, is a very special one indeed. This is real quality, the property has evolved beautifully and slowly having been respectfully renovated, restored and seamlessly expanded with such care and attention to detail throughout. The purist should be happy here, the use of reclaimed materials mellows and softens the exterior and its garden, giving the impression that all is 200 years old. Within, this is a very practical, well proportioned, lovely and comfortable family home, with great space across the three bedrooms (master en-suite), two further bath/shower rooms, attic bedroom, farmhouse style kitchen/diner with separate utility, large living room with wood burner and stunning sun room accomplishing an 'inside/outside' feeling from the bi-folding doors opening to the South facing garden. The outside is a delight, an immediate enclosed area which then meanders through a beautiful cobbled pathway, passing a memorable timber tree house and sunken terrace to the large workshop accessed through a gateway in the old stone wall. Immediately accessed from the road and a short walk from the cottage is a car park owned by the property shared with its six neighbours.
Gardener's Cottage is the kind of instruction we relish and enjoy at Heather & Lay. We wholeheartedly recommend you come and see for yourself.

When she first conceived An American Songline, Cece wanted to follow a historic route that would let her travel the entire country. She chose the Lincoln Highway, the first paved road that took Americans from New York City to San Francisco, passing through 14 states in total. With a program of 20 songs ranging from opera to show tunes, Cece traveled from one end of the highway to the other, giving concerts in each state along the route — 30 performances in all. She took part in the centennial celebration for the highway in Kearney, Nebraska; rode in a parade in Jefferson, Iowa; and gave the first-ever scheduled concert at the annual Dam Jam in Rockport, Utah, among many other highlights.
Cece recounted her travels in a book and also recorded an album of music from her program, along with several new pieces inspired by the journey.
