Dr. Marvin Ellis Uy Wee (黄智毅) & Mikee Elaine Uy Wee (黃淳郁)
Created on April 27, 2020 11:07 PM
Last Updated on April 29, 2020 12:28 AM
At the forefront of this battle against the COVID-19 pandemic are two doctors, siblings and both CKSians, serving in two different hospitals.
The elder brother, Dr. Marvin Ellis Uy Wee (黄智毅), is from CKS high school batch 2004. He is a physician and instructor with specialty in Radiology at the Metropolitan Medical Center. As one of the hospital's chief radiologists, he checks and signs the reports for X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, and ultrasounds, and performs critical imaging guided procedures for diagnosis and treatment, assisting attending physicians in arriving at the best diagnosis possible.
Doc Marvin had his 1 year internship, 4 years residency, and 2 years as consultant, all at the Metropolitan Medical Center since 2013. With a lot of advancement in medical technology particularly in Radiology, Marvin has the luxury of interpreting most of the images at home. Nevertheless, he still reports to the hospital for important emergency procedures and to check his staff and their work in the Radiology Department.
Just being human, Doc Marvin admits to having some psychological burden every time he reports to the hospital. He can't help thinking if unknowingly, he has contracted the virus or not. He fears that if he has been infected, he may unknowingly transmit it to his family, friends, colleagues, and especially his 9-month old daughter. But despite all these worries, he still performs his duties because it is what is expected of him in his profession and as a responsible citizen of the country.
Doc Marvin attributes his strong sense of compassion and camaraderie from his many years of basic education at CKS College.
He quoted: "Even without me needing to reach out to ask for help, I receive calls and messages from fellow alumni, asking how they could help during these hard times. These values makes me proud to be an alumnus."
Marvin's younger sister, Mikee Elaine Uy Wee (黃淳郁) of CKS High School Batch 2008, is a second year Internal Medicine resident at the Manila Doctors Hospital. As part of the residency program, Mikee helps man the Emergency Room, including admitting, treating, and stabilizing patients who come into the hospital.
Doc Mikee's dilemma in her current job is the difficulty to triage whether a patient is considered a Person under investigation (PUI) or not, since all sorts of patients come thru the ER door. As such, it is imperative for her and the other ER doctors to practice extra caution not only for themselves, but also for other patients inside the Emergency Room. As the number of cases steeply rise, a lot of medical staff at the Manila Doctors Hospital were exposed and were advised to undergo quarantine. And as the medical work force became less and less, manpower became more in demand.
Like her brother, Doc Mikee also knows her limitations, especially since there were already casualties from the ranks of doctors in their hospital. She said: "Other than the PPE we all know of, top priority for me is to organize and compose myself. Getting infected with the novel virus is indeed frightful, but never should I let fear hit me first. Never let fear rattle you, because once it does, you'll miss a lot of important details and you'll have to suit up again and go back to the patient. Not only will it waste valuable protective equipment, but it will also increase everybody's exposure. The main goal is to minimize exposure. So, I try to list down in my mind everything I need to do for the patient, gather all the equipment I need to examine the patient, calmly take the history of the patient and do physical examination. My mindset - do it once and do it right. Lastly, nothing beats handwashing and hygiene. I make sure to clean myself before and after patient contact, to and from hospital shifts."
Doc Mikee fondly remembers a story from her Chinese teacher about "Kong Rong Gave Away Biggest Pear (孔融讓梨)". It was about a young scholar, who was the second youngest among seven siblings. Being the favorite, he was given the biggest pear his father brought home. But instead of accepting the biggest pear, he took the smallest pear instead. He gave away the biggest pear for his older siblings, and took the smallest so his younger sibling can have a bigger pear.
How does Doc Mikee apply this to the current situation? "Amidst the panic and anxiety, there should be no room for selfishness. Instead, we should be hand in hand (figuratively only by remembering social distancing) to fight this COVID-19 together, even in our own little way. There should be no "I", but "We" instead.", she added.
Going back to the elder brother, Doc Marvin ended our short conversation with an advise for everyone, and he said: "Please stay home as much as possible. Just by staying home, you're already doing your part to confront this pandemic and minimize community spread. Stay home so you could protect yourself, your loved ones, your neighbors, and our community. Stay home so you could protect our frontline workers and give them a fighting chance."
Thank you, Docs Marvin and Mikee. CKS College is proud of you, WEE siblings!

All films are available for purchase.
Purchase your DVD today of
Wendell G. Freeland A Silent Soldier
today for $19.99
plus shipping.
Tuskegee Airman. Civil Rights attorney. Powerful advocate for the poor and disenfranchised. Wendell Freeland devoted seventy years to fighting injustice wherever he found it, from the age of Jim Crow to that of Barack Obama. He blazed a trail for racial equality by working largely behind the scenes in America's courtrooms, boardrooms, and political backrooms.
The half hour documentary "Wendell Freeland: A Silent Soldier" will tell the story of a complex and courageous man, whose long career helped shape an era of historic change.
We Are Universal today for $19.99
We Are Universal
is a documentary film that recounts the influence of the "Black Is Beautiful" movement on the art of Black people. Scenes of arts organizations, performances, and lifestyles in four of the major urban areas for art in the country – Boston, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles – are interwoven with opinions of Black art from artists who were themselves major influences on the art [then] [in the 1970's], and who now have a place in Black history.
Visual segues of two young boys as they explore their hometown from downtown to "uptown" combined with a musical score, written by Carl Atkins and featuring the performances of Gary Bartz and James Ntume, provide visual metaphors and thematic cues for the discussions of how Black culture has evolved. The conclusion of the film offers a projection of Black art that, as the years have passed since it was produced, remains undeniably accurate…
That We Are Universal was produced in the 60's, when ideologies of Black people had a major influence on all art forms, and that it is now a document, will have increasing importance in the years to come. Artists who appear in the film include Quincy Jones, Freddie Hubbard, Charles White, Nikki Giovanni, Don Lee, Hugh Masekela, Betty Carter, Lee Morgan and many others*
Purchase your DVD today of Didn't We Ramble On? today for $19.99
Didn't We Ramble On?
The culmination of ten years research by Dr. Carl Atkins, Didn't We Ramble On traces the evolution of the Black marching band from 14th Century West African processions to present-day bands. The music, the pageantry, and the many uses of current marching bands have been irrefutably traced to centuries-old Yoruba processions by Dr. Atkins and confirmed by noted ethnomusicologists Dr. Eileen Southern and Dr. John Szwed.
Narrated by Dizzy Gilespie, this visually and aurally exciting film features performances of a West African procession, New Orleans jazz funeral procession and the Florida A&M University Marching Band. Archival photographs, depictions and music from Africa, Europe and the United States are used to underscore similarities in the evolution of this ancient art form. Didn't We Ramble On won the "Best Film" Award in the Black Filmmakers Hall of Fame and National Black Programming Consortium competitions in 1991. It also won, among other awards, a CINE Golden Eagle, a Blue Ribbon at the American Film & Video Festival, and a Director's Choice in the Atlanta Image and the Black Maria Film Competition.
Enough is Enough today for $19.99
On October 12, 1995 Jonny Gammage, a 31-year-old African-American businessman, churchgoer and volunteer, was pulled over by five white police officers while driving a Jaguar owned by his cousin, Pittsburgh Steeler Ray Seals. During the ensuing struggle Gammage was asphyxiated. There was shock and revulsion in the community, and thousands, both black and white, took to the streets to protest.
Enough is ENOUGH! examines the criminal justice system and the procedural relationships among the law enforcement officers, the Coroner's office, the District Attorneys, and the courts. Interwoven with the story line are interviews with prominent lawyers, politicians and activists such as Prof. Charles Ogletree of Harvard, Louis Farrakhan, Johnnie Cochran, Al Sharpton and many others. Enough. . . examines Jonny Gammage, the person, and the icon that is inextricably linked with the struggle to end police misconduct. It looks at the criminal justice system, the police, Coroner's office, District Attorneys, and courts. Enough. . . then focuses on how the community mobilized for change. Archival footage, newspaper clippings, animation, and narration tell the story of Jonny's death and add the egregious police killing of Jerry Jackson in the same year. Police in that case also were found not guilty. In 2005, police were judged innocent by reason of "poor training" in yet another case of positional asphyxia. The lessons still have not been learned.
Interwoven with the story line are interviews with prominent lawyers, politicians and activists such as Prof. Charles Ogletree of Harvard, Louis Farrakhan, Johnnie Cochran, Al Sharpton and many others.
Rodger Humphries / Pass it On
Rodger Humphries: "Pass it On" is a half-hour documentary on this legendary jazz drummer and music educator. Pass it On showcases Rodger's formidable talents as a musician and musical group leader, his skills as a teacher, and his inspirational dedication to his family, students, colleagues, and community.
Rodger is known and respected among jazz fans and musicians worldwide. "Discovered" by other musicians in the family when he was only three years old, at four Rodger was sitting in with the Tab Smith Big Band, where his Uncle Frank Humphries played.
At 14 he was playing professionally, and at 16 led his own group at Carnegie Music Hall. He has played, toured, and recorded for more than 50 years with such jazz greats as Ray Charles and Horace Silver and his own RH Factor quartet and Rodger Humphries Big Band. Equally important, and less known than his discography of more than 20 albums, is Rodger's personal legacy. His talent has taken him around the world, but he has always maintained his connections to family and Pittsburgh, finding his deepest satisfaction in the successes of his students. His story is told in the words of those former students as well as interviews with family, friends, and other professional musicians, artfully interwoven with music footage both new and old, and Rodger's own communication in concert and classroom.

AFC "Sport" was een Amsterdamse voetbalclub en de eerste Nederlandse club die Association Football speelde, het huidige voetbal.

In Amsterdam werd in het najaar van 1880 een voetbalvereniging opgericht die bestond uit spelers van rugbyclub R.U.N. en de cricketteams van B.A.T. en Strong. Bij AFC "Sport" voetbalden voornamelijk Engelse jongelui van de firma Imperial Continental Gas-association, een Britse onderneming die voor het lichtgas in de hoofdstad zorgde. Eerste vermelding van een cricket wedstrijd was op 14 oktober 1883 een wedstrijd tegen Rood en Wit in het vondelpark. De oudste vermelding van een Nederlandse voetbalwedstrijd was tussen de Koninklijke HFC en AFC "Sport" die op 21 november 1886 gespeeld werd in Haarlem. Deze wedstrijd werd met 3-5 gewonnen door "Sport". Op 19 december 1886 vond de return match plaats in het Amsterdamse Vondelpark. Ook dit keer won "Sport", nu met 3-0 dankzij doelpunten van Easton, captain Spiller en Sowray.

Twijfel over oprichtingsjaar
Sportjournalist Frans van den Nieuwenhof zette in 2014 vraagtekens bij het oprichtingsjaar 1880 van "Sport" en voert daarbij diverse argumenten aan. Volgens hem dateerde RUN van 22 maart 1882 en bestond toen nog minstens drie jaar lang als afzonderlijke vereniging. Pas in 1884 werd melding gemaakt van de Amsterdamsche Cricketclub Sport, opgericht door medewerkers van de Imperial Continental Gas Association. Imperial Gas vestigde zich niet eerder dan in 1883 in Amsterdam. En pas in het voorjaar van 1885 veranderde de naam van de club in de Amsterdamsche Cricket- en Footballclub Sport.

Dr. Drew Heads Back to Rehab
By Valerie Tejeda 01/16/12
His new show will feature "real" addicts, rather than celebrities.
It's back to the future for Dr. Drew.
After announcing that VH1 was dropping Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, America's favorite addiction expert is returning to television with a new—and rather similar sounding—reality show. Tentatively tilted Rehab With Dr. Drew, it will feature "real" people with substance abuse issues, as opposed to celebrities. The addicts will follow the same detox and treatment programs at The Pasadena Recovery Center as seen previously. The show is set to air this summer on VH1. "I am so excited to once again have the opportunity to educate viewers about the deadly disease of addiction. More than 85 million Americans are affected by addiction, whether they've faced the disease themselves or have supported family members or friends through a substance abuse issue," says 53-year-old Dr. Drew Pinsky. "The stigma and shame associated with drug and alcohol addiction prevents many from getting the help that they need. It is my sincere hope that this show will encourage people who are struggling to seek the help. Treatment works and there is hope and recovery is possible."

Balkan Fighters In Eastern Ukraine: Why Are They There?
by Asya Metodieva|Published 29.04.2019
The third part of the series 'Safety first' examines the tangled ideological motives behind Balkan fighters taking up arms in Eastern Ukraine
Type "foreign fighters" into Google, and the results skew toward those who joined the Islamic State in Syria or Iraq. A few results, however, reveal the role of foreign nationals in the ongoing conflict in Eastern Ukraine. Why do we know less about international fighters in Donetsk or Lugansk than about European jihadists in the already defeated "caliphate"? There are three main reasons. First, they are not perceived as a threat in the public discourse. As long as there is no terror attack conducted in the West by foreign fighters with experience on Ukrainian battlefields, the news media are less inclined bother us with their stories. Yet, the Christchurch mosque shootings seem to have drawn inspiration from radical forms of ethno-nationalism that drew many to join Russia-backed separatist units in Eastern Ukraine. Second, their departure seems to be tolerated in their countries of origin or at least local governments do not feel the need to talk about it. Finally, their propaganda is not that loud. Relying on social media for recruitment and communication, contingents in this war hardly can afford the media machinery of IS. There are no fancy magazines or professionally filmed videos. Nonetheless, active profiles of fighters on Instagram and Facebook make the battlefields of Ukraine appealing enough.
More than 1500 insurgents from 27 nationalities have taken part in the conflict (up to June 2016), in addition to the thousands of Russian "volunteers". According to the available data, most have been from Belarus, Georgia, Serbia and Croatia. About 300 Balkan fighters have joined various units. Serbs have fought on the separatist side in Ukraine. They support Russia in the name of a Pan-Slavic and Orthodox Commonwealth. Warriors from this "corner" of Europe have embraced the Russian cause of the conflict as if it was their own. The opposite with Croats, who have participated on the Ukrainian side; a gesture of friendship from the time of the Yugoslavian Wars.
The Sense of Orthodox Christian Brotherhood
Many Balkan fighters say they have gone to Eastern Ukraine out of a deep sympathy with the Russian cause there. Serbs from Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina are known to have carried out combat and counter-intelligence missions for eight pro-Russian paramilitary units. Among them, the prominent Wagner mercenary group.
Serbian fighters have sparked tension between Ukraine and Serbia over the past few years. Serbia never condemned Russia's actions in Crimea and refused to join with EU sanctions. Kiev has repeatedly warned security institutions in Belgrade, listing Serbian citizens as allegedly members of pro-Russian separatist groups. In a 2017 interview, Ukraine's ambassador to Belgrade argued that Serbia is doing nothing to stop its citizens from fighting in East Ukraine. He warned this Balkan nation that Moscow is 'using Serbia' for its battles elsewhere. In 2018 SBU's Igor Guskov claimed that at least seven Serbian mercenaries are known to have been fighting under orders from the Wagner group. Serbia has passed a law prohibiting its citizens from fighting in foreign conflicts. Yet the country's reactions to this information were reticent. So far, there are criminal proceedings against 45 individuals. Of them 27 have pleaded guilty and negotiated with the prosecution. 28 were convicted. 24 of them have received conditional sentences. Only four have been sentenced for going to Eastern Ukraine.
The presumptive number of Balkan fighters seems rather high. But local media and institutions do not dwell on this issue beyond stories of several Serbian "heroes" of the Ukrainian battlefields. One of them is Radomir Pocuca, a former special police spokesperson. Patriotism is a key word in his argumentation. In his words, he went to Ukraine to help Serbia's "Russian brothers", largely as payback for Moscow's support for Serbia in its dispute with Kosovo. Another fighter from Montenegro, convicted for participation in the war in Ukraine, said he had gone there to "help people for moral and patriotic reasons". Serbian fighters in Ukraine also refer to Russian volunteers who came to the Balkans in the 1990s to support the Serbs in the Bosnian war.
Indeed, many of the Serbian fighters had previous fighting experience before going to Ukraine. One example is Ranko Momic, a Bosnian Serb, a former member of Arkan's Serbian Volunteer Guard. He escaped trial for alleged war crimes in Kosovo and fled to Donetsk in 2015. Dejan Beric is another prominent Serbian fighter with past experience in the Bosnian war. He was running a small business in northern Serbia but in 2014 closed it and left for Ukraine. Beric is known to be currently living in Donetsk. He claimed to had traveled to the battlefield after an invitation from two Russians who fought in the Balkans in the 1990s.
The recruitment: From Belgrade via Moscow and Rostov-on-Don
Recruitment of Balkan fighters does not differ much from other cases. Social media has become a key venue to get in touch with people on the battlefields. They inspire support via posting stories from Ukrainian separatist zones. They also use videos to inform their followers about organizational dynamics and invite them to join the cause.
The initial step for many is to get in touch with pro-Russian humanitarian organizations on the ground. At the later phase of the conflict they have been able to connect with each other. Fighters from the Balkans have been choosing between two options to reach the separatist zones. The route most frequently includes a stop in Rostov-on-Don before travelling to Eastern Ukraine. The second option is to enter Ukraine legally on a 30-day visa-free travel. From there, they sneak into the contested areas where Ukrainian and forces supported by Russia fight.
A focal point in the story of Serbian fighters is the Russia-based Kosovo Front Organization. The formal mission of the organization is to assist support from Russia for Serbs in Kosovo. Nonetheless, media and security sources point to a link between the Kosovo Front Organization and the recruitment of Serbs fighting in Eastern Ukraine. In a 2017 interview, Aleksandar Kravchenko, a founder of the organization, states that it does not provide any funds for organizing trips of fighters from Serbia. But Kravchenko adds they are willing to help Serbs who arrive in Russia who do not know the language. Kravchenko adds that with the outbreak of the conflict, Kosovo Front supported the referendum in Crimea. It did, he said, take part in what he described as humanitarian actions in Donbas region.
Another trace in the story is "Unité Continentale", one of the paramilitary groups fighting on the pro-Russian side in Ukraine. In June 2018, Ukraine's General Prosecutor's Office has launched investigation of 54 suspected members of the pro-Russian foreign legion operating in Eastern Ukraine. Among them were six Serbian citizens. These included Bratislav Zhivkovic, the self-proclaimed commander of Serbia's Chetnik movement, who was convicted for recruitment. The separatist fighters allegedly took part in attacks on Ukrainian forces in the region of Donetsk and Lugansk from July 2014. Although there is no well-organized, hierarchical grassroots recruitment network in the Balkans that can be easily identified, it is evident that the six involved in "Unité Continentale" were connected to each other.
The Radical Milieu
Serbian foreign fighters seem to be either ideologically or organizationally linked to or egged on by right wing movements, veteran and patriotic organizations, or radical political parties. In drawing volunteers and mercenaries to support its cause in Ukraine, Russia has increased its influence on the radical milieus across the region. The "tango" between Moscow and the Far-Right in the Western Balkans follows a similar trend to other European countries. Local ethno-nationalisms have been awakened by orthodox Christian brotherhood rhetoric. This rhetoric has been promoted more noticeably following the annexation of Crimea and the war in Ukraine. It merges to supranational struggles and inspiring volunteers for action. In 2017, 60 websites in the region promoted "the idea of ethnically pure nation states, neo-Nazism, violent homophobia and other radical right-wing policies," run by a new generation of regional extremists who are "even more radical than those who split up the former Yugoslavia."
To sum up, foreign fighters in Ukraine are among the visible outcomes of invisible processes of radicalization inspired and encouraged by Russia. They are only the tip of the iceberg of radical communities sharing the same ideological worldview. The Far-Right in the Western Balkans and separatist groups in Eastern Ukraine have similar sources of inspiration. However, the political and institutional acceptability of this phenomenon at the international level is worrisome. Moreover, it looks like neither the EU nor Facebook has put any efforts in addressing the foreign fighter phenomenon beyond ISIS. Are we waiting for "breaking news"?

Здесь Родос, здесь прыгай () — афоризм, восходящий к Эзопу. Высказывание предлагает собеседнику, хвастающемуся своими успехами, которых никто не видел, доказать свой талант тут же, на месте («вместо хвастовства, покажи на деле»: не рассказывай о своих славных делах, совершённых где-то или когда-то, а покажи свои возможности здесь и сейчас). Часто цитируется на латыни, хотя не дошедший до нас оригинал был написан по-гречески: .

Происхождение
В эзоповской басне «Хвастливый пятиборец» путешественник по возвращении домой начинает хвастать своими успехами, особенно выделяя далёкий прыжок, якобы совершённый им на Родосе, и указывает на свидетелей, которые могли бы подтвердить его слова. Скептический слушатель замечает: «Если всё, что ты сказал — правда, то свидетели не нужны. Здесь Родос, здесь и прыгай».

 прослеживает историю афоризма через «Поговорки» Эразма (№ 2229 в издании 1508 года, № 2328 в издании 1515 года и последующих).  отмечает, что первый издатель «Поговорок», Альд Мануций, использовал этот афоризм в своём предисловии на первой странице книги, после перечисления заслуг автора и издателя с самоиронией завершая его словами: «воистину, » (предисловие написано на латыни). После Эразма выражение вошло в немецкий язык, где употреблялось знаменитостями от Гегеля до Маркса.

У Ленина
В. И. Ленин употреблял выражение многократно в разных смыслах, переводя его как «Здесь Родос, здесь  пляши». В 1909 году в письме к И. И. Скворцову-Степанову Ленин употребляет его в значении «решайся, выбирай!», призывая к поддержке крестьянского движения: «Hic Rhodus, hic salta! Тут либо отказ от всей аграрной программы <большевиков> и переход… почти что к кадетизму, — либо признание принципиальной разницы в постановке вопроса в Германии и в России, принципиальной не в смысле того, чтобы у нас была некапиталистическая, а в смысле того, что совсем иные, принципиально иные эпохи капитализма».

Scientists will present their latest results in developing and researching gamified immersive elements in educational environments. Educators and work professionals will present their experience and best-case scenarios for applying those elements to their daily life teaching and work life. Presented ideas will be discussed in terms of impact, expectations of further developments, and possible fields of application. The scope of topics will therefore range from game design or gamified immersive elements in a technical and non-technical utilization.
The second part of the workshop is an interactive design jam to collaboratively discuss and design future game design elements for immersive educational environments. The workshop will be moderated and results will be summarized and documented at the end.
Space and Enrollment restrictions: Enrollment must be limited to 20 in order to moderate the workshop in an appropriate way.


Shukhrat Sirojiddinov, the Rector of Alisher Navo'i Tashkent State University of the Uzbek Language and Literature held a meeting with academic staff and talented students of the university. He uttered about the affairs in university in 2018 and details of visit to Turkey, and discussed the further plans with the participants of the meeting. "Our national duty is to promote the Uzbek language and literature around the world. We need to know foreign languages to complete this task. Russian, English, and oriental (Arabic and farsi) have been taught so far in our university but you have to learn Turkish, French, Chinese and other languages additionally. This is the requirement of development. Our philologists must be the personnels who are well knowledgeable of information technologies, our history and traditions, as well as are capable of speaking in several languages fluently" stressed Shukhrat Sirojiddinov. According to the agreements signed with other countries, visits of our hundreds of students are planned to Turkey, Russia, China and India in this academic year. In order to accomplish our great aims not two, but four languages are needed.

ICE-TI Projects create and/or adapt and assess innovative models and materials for teaching and learning in STEM, embody knowledge about how students learn most effectively in STEM teaching and learning activities, and bring STEM disciplinary advances into the undergraduate experience.
Broadening Participation Research in STEM Education (BPR) provides support for research projects that seek to create and study new models and innovations in STEM teaching and learning, enhance the understanding of the participation of diverse groups in STEM education and inform education practices and interventions. BPR projects add new research-based strategies and models to broadening participation in STEM and increase the capacity of scholars in TCUP-eligible institutions to conduct this type of research.
Targeted STEM Infusion Projects (TSIP) provide support toward achieving a short-term, well-defined goal that promises to improve the quality of undergraduate STEM education at an eligible institution. Targeted STEM Infusion Projects could, for example, enhance academic infrastructure by systematically adding traditional knowledge to the scope or content of a STEM course, updating curriculum, modernizing laboratory research equipment, or improving the computational network array for research and education.
Catalyzing Opportunities for Research and Education (CORE) projects provide support for faculty members in STEM areas at TCUP-eligible institutions to pursue research at an NSF-funded Center, at a research-intensive institution, or at a national laboratory. Awards are intended to help further the faculty member's research capability and effectiveness, to improve research and teaching at his or her home institution, and to involve undergraduate students in research experiences. These awards are particularly appropriate as a means of recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientists and engineers at TCUP-eligible institutions.
Estimated Number of Awards: 18 to 23 - Up to 2 Planning Grants, up to 5 Broadening Participation Research Projects, up to 10 Targeted STEM Infusion awards, and up to 2 Catalyzing Opportunities for Research and Education will be made pending the availability of funds. Up to 4 Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions awards will be made as continuing grants pending the availability of funds.
Anticipated Funding Amount: $6,000,000 pending the availability of funds.
TCUP Proposals: Tribal Colleges and Universities, Alaska Native-serving institutions and Native Hawaiian-serving institutions as defined in Section IV of this solicitation. Priority for TSIP awards will be given to TCUP-eligible institutions that have not previously received Implementation-level support.
For the Planning Grant and Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions award tracks, the Principal Investigator (PI) is expected to be the chief academic officer of the institution, or another senior academic officer responsible for oversight and management of curriculum and instructional policies for the institution. All full time faculty members at TCUP-eligible institutions are eligible to serve as PI on Broadening Participation Research in STEM Education. Typically, the PI for Targeted STEM Infusion Projects and Catalyzing Opportunities for Research and Education proposals would be a member of the STEM faculty. Prospective PIs are encouraged to consult TCUP program staff.
Eligible institutions may receive only one Planning Grant. Eligible institutions may receive consecutive, but not concurrent, Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions awards. There is no limit on the number of Targeted STEM Infusion Projects, Catalyzing Opportunities in Research and Education, or Broadening Participation Research projects per TCUP-eligible institution.
NSF supports research at the frontiers of knowledge, across all fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics and all levels of STEM education. NSF enables innovation and discovery in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics by educating and preparing a diverse and able STEM workforce motivated to participate at the frontiers of science. NSF is committed to reaching across society to ensure that the rich diversity of the nation's cultures is well represented in the STEM workforce and that individuals engaged in STEM fields are trained to participate fully in the global research enterprise.
The Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) is managed by the Division of Human Resource Development (HRD), which is part of the Directorate for Education and Human Resources (EHR) of the National Science Foundation (NSF).
To meet the challenges presented by the nation's increasing needs in STEM, the Tribal Colleges and Universities Program is committed to enhancing the quality of undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education and research at Tribal Colleges and Universities, Alaska Native-serving institutions, and Native Hawaiian-serving institutions. TCUP seeks development of STEM education initiatives to support the preparation of a science and engineering workforce that is broadly inclusive and capable of performing in an international research and development environment in order for the U.S. to remain at the forefront of world science and technology.
How does cultural integration with the STEM curriculum affect student success?
How does the engagement of discipline-specific undergraduate research affect student success?
How does the increasing level of rigor affect student success?
What are the critical support services and how do they affect student success?
How does faculty development affect sustainability of institutional transformation?
Improving student performance in science and mathematics requires an adequate supply of well-qualified STEM teachers 1, 2, and community colleges play a vital role in the preparation of those teachers, particularly among underserved populations. TCUP strongly encourages PIs to address STEM teacher preparation at either the associates or baccalaureate level to help increase the number and quality of future science and mathematics teachers. A focus of TCUP is the recruitment and retention of veterans in STEM fields as a means to diversify and increase the STEM workforce. Proposals that recruit a cohort of veterans and suggest strategies to retain them are strongly encouraged.

The Tribal Colleges and Universities Program promotes improvement and continued quality in undergraduate science, technology, engineering and mathematics instructional and outreach programs at Tribal Colleges and Universities, Alaska Native-serving institutions and Native Hawaiian-serving institutions.
Through this program, assistance is provided to eligible institutions in their efforts to upgrade cyberinfrastructure, prepare students for careers in STEM fields, and build the STEM capacity of Native communities toward achieving community goals. TCUP projects are also intended, in their entirety and in the long-term, to promote innovation in STEM education in all settings (including, e.g., other Minority Serving institutions and mainstream educational institutions). TCUP and the National Science Foundation allow proposers flexibility and creativity in the design of efforts to improve undergraduate STEM education. Proposed activities should be the result of a careful analysis of institutional needs, address institutional and NSF goals, and have the potential to result in significant and sustainable improvement of STEM programs. TCUP emphasizes the expansion of course and degree offerings, development of undergraduate research opportunities, faculty skills, and STEM-education technologies; and the integration of community goals and traditional knowledge with mainstream STEM education and research. Support is available for focused STEM interventions, STEM-education research, and the implementation of comprehensive institutional approaches to strengthening STEM teaching, learning, and application. Partnerships among institutions of higher education and collaborations with K-12 schools, tribal government units or other relevant groups are encouraged.
TCUP support is available through Planning Grants, Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions awards, Broadening Participation Research in STEM Education projects, Targeted STEM Infusion Projects and Catalyzing Opportunities in Research and Education awards. Typical project goals and approaches (described in greater detail below) include course, degree, and curriculum development, reform and enhancement; faculty professional development; the integration of active learning tactics into the STEM curriculum; community outreach and engagement; student support; internships and other educational enrichment activities; student recruitment, retention and placement; infusion of technology to enhance STEM instruction; collaborations with other educational institutions, business, or other community partners; and activities that enhance the knowledge and skills of technical support personnel. Proposals that include these or other activities that will meet institutional and community needs are encouraged. While the primary focus of TCUP is at the associate and baccalaureate degree levels, proposers are encouraged to include methods to promote successful advancement by students through the critical transition points: the transition between high school and college, 2- and 4-year colleges, undergraduate and graduate studies, and from college to the workplace. A focus of TCUP is the recruitment and retention of veterans in STEM fields as a means to diversify and increase the STEM workforce. Proposals that recruit a cohort of veterans and suggest strategies to retain them, are strongly encouraged.
Planning Grants provide support to undertake self-analysis of the TCUP-eligible institution's undergraduate STEM programs to identify components that need improvement or enhancement in order to ensure a high quality undergraduate STEM education. Planning Grants should also examine existing activities and strategies across the nation that could be implemented in a proposed project to improve the quality and competitiveness of undergraduate STEM education at the institution. Proposed activities should include an institutional STEM self-analysis leading to an action plan. This should include activities and strategies to identify the strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities that affect the capacity and effectiveness of the institution to attract, retain, and educate students in STEM fields and graduate them prepared for further study (transfer to a four-year institution or graduate school) or the STEM workforce. Typical activities include: data collection and analysis, stakeholder consultation, development of potential activities and strategies, site visits to model programs, and data gathering for a proposal for an implementation or research project. TCUP Planning Grants typically provide up to $50,000 for up to one year. Eligible institutions may receive only one Planning Grant. TCUP will accept proposals for Planning Grants at any time: there is no deadline for Planning Grants. Interested individuals are strongly encouraged to discuss this option with a TCUP program officer.
Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions (ICE-TI; formerly Initiation Projects) strand provides support to design, implement and assess comprehensive institutional efforts at eligible two-year or four-year colleges to increase the numbers of students in STEM and the quality of their preparation by strengthening STEM education and research. ICE-TIs create and/or adapt and assess innovative models and materials for teaching and learning in STEM, embody knowledge about how students learn most effectively in STEM teaching and learning activities, and bring STEM disciplinary advances into the undergraduate experience. Projects that may result in new STEM degrees at the associate or baccalaureate levels are encouraged. Proposers are encouraged to analyze the strengths and potential of the institution in STEM. Based on this analysis, they should design innovative educational strategies appropriate in content and context to increase the capacity and effectiveness of the institution to attract, retain, and educate students in STEM. The students should graduate prepared to pursue further study at the baccalaureate or graduate level, or to join the STEM workforce. Dissemination of successful models, effective methods, and innovative materials for educating STEM students are critical aspects of ICE-TIs. ICE-TI components may include, but are not limited to: developing and assessing innovative STEM curriculum and teaching and learning techniques, using cyberinfrastructure for anytime, anywhere learning; providing novel undergraduate student development activities and educational enrichment services; enhancing undergraduate student research experiences; providing activities that promote the development of a globally engaged workforce; creating new approaches to recruitment and retention of undergraduate STEM students; providing faculty professional development in effective STEM teaching; preparing K-12 STEM teachers; addressing the critical transitions from K-12 to undergraduate; 2-year to 4-year, and undergraduate to graduate; and implementing other activities that enhance the quality and competitiveness of undergraduate STEM programs.
TCUP encourages the submission of proposals from eligible institutions that have completed the necessary planning activities (with or without NSF support) to develop an appropriate strategy for STEM instructional improvement. Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions awards will typically be awarded for up to five years, in amounts of up to $500,000 per year dependent on performance; total funding per project is not expected to exceed $2,500,000. ICE-TI projects should actively engage STEM faculty members who will be responsible for the successful implementation of the proposed project.
The TCUP Broadening Participation Research in STEM Education track provides support to undertake a one-to-three year educational research project that will inform STEM education and research programs at TCUP-eligible institutions. BPR awards will be up to $300,000 for up to three years. BPR proposals should be theory-based and employ sound research methodology and projects should contribute to broad scientific understanding of STEM education. Research proposed in the BPR track must be within the scope of areas supported within the NSF's Directorate of Education and Human Resources. Potential education research topics include (but are not limited to) place-based learning; student retention; diffusion of innovations; curricular enhancements; technology in education; integration of student research with disciplinary learning; effectiveness in STEM teacher education; or the identification of successful curriculum or student-support models. Studies of educational components across multiple TCUP-eligible institutions are encouraged. Projects that include TCUP students on the research team are encouraged. College faculty members who are not experienced educational researchers are encouraged to partner with experienced researchers from other institutions. Proposals can be submitted by partnerships of multiple TCUP-eligible institutions, but proposals must be submitted and directed by a TCUP-eligible institution.
Targeted STEM Infusion Projects (TSIP) strand provides support toward achieving a short-term, well-defined goal that promises to improve the quality of undergraduate STEM education at eligible institutions. Targeted STEM Infusion Projects could develop innovative learning experiences in emerging fields of science and engineering such as energy science, climate science, and other dynamic interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary fields. Projects could develop creative uses of cyberinfrastructure for anytime, anywhere learning in STEM and next generation STEM undergraduate programs. Projects could enhance academic infrastructure by systematically adding traditional knowledge to the scope or content of STEM courses, updating curriculum, modernizing laboratory research equipment, or improving the computational network array for research and education. Such approaches could help to improve the preparedness of students for further study and the recruitment of qualified STEM faculty. Projects could enhance existing degree programs, establish new degree programs at the associate or baccalaureate level, secure specialized accreditation or certification, or infuse STEM programs with disciplinary field advances and evolving workforce requirements. These approaches should be aimed at improving the academic preparation of graduating students and recruiting more students to the program. Projects could build explicit collaborations between STEM disciplines and teacher education programs. Typically, projects are focused on one activity within a single STEM department; however interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary projects are encouraged. Eligible institutions may include strategies to bring scientists and educators in STEM fields to their institutions as visiting faculty in order to help establish new courses or degree programs, build partnerships to promote successful student matriculation to mainstream universities, or otherwise support success of the educational mission of the institution.
Competitive proposals will describe clearly the innovation in undergraduate STEM education the project will realize. Appropriate short-term goals should be easily measurable and attainable within the project time frame, and appropriate metrics should be identified. The proposal also should include activities for dissemination of project results.
Normal operating activities such as salaries to teach existing classes and normal recruitment and outreach activities will not be funded. TSIP proposals are not supplements to existing TCUP projects. Targeted STEM Infusion Project awards are up to three years and up to $500,000. Eligible institutions do not need to have an existing implementation (i.e., non-planning) award in order to submit a TSIP proposal.
Catalyzing Opportunities in Research and Education (CORE) provides support for faculty members in STEM areas at TCUP-eligible institutions to initiate or pursue research endeavors. These activities can be centered at the PI's home institution, but may also involve activities at another institution or research agency, such as an NSF-funded Center, a research-intensive institution, or a national laboratory. Awards are intended to help further the faculty member's research capability and effectiveness, to improve research and teaching at his or her home institution, and to involve undergraduate students in research experiences. Catalyzing Opportunities for Research and Education awards are for up to two years and up to $200,000.
For both undergraduate and faculty development experiences, the TCUP program also encourages inclusion of international experiences where relevant and feasible. PIs are encouraged to consider adding international activities to their proposals. Additional opportunities for funding for international experiences can be found through NSF's Office of International Science and Engineering (OISE) and can be found at the OISE website.
Note: Funds should be budgeted for the PI and PD to attend a three-day grantee meeting in the Washington, DC area and a TCUP Leaders' Forum each award year; as well as a single reverse site visit at NSF.
Note: Funds should be budgeted for the PI to attend a three-day grantee meeting in the Washington, DC area each award year.
Organizations eligible to submit TCUP proposals are Tribal Colleges and Universities, Alaska Native-serving institutions and Native Hawaiian-serving institutions. Multiple campuses of one university system are normally encouraged to consider collaborative submissions. Executive Order 13021 defines Tribal Colleges and Universities ("tribal colleges") as those institutions cited in section 532 of the Equity in Educational Land-Grant Status Act of 1994 (7 U.S.C. 301 note), and other institutions that qualify for funding under the Tribally Controlled Community College Assistance Act of 1978, (25 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), as well as Navajo Community College as authorized in the Navajo Community College Assistance Act of 1978, Public Law 95-471, Title II (25 U.S.C. 640a note). The term "Alaska Native-serving institution" means an institution of higher education that is an eligible institution under section 1058(b) of the Higher Education Act; and that, at the time of submission, has an undergraduate enrollment that is at least 20 percent Alaska Native students. The term "Native Hawaiian-serving institution" means an institution of higher education that is an eligible institution under section 1058(b) of the Higher Education Act; and that, at the time of submission, has an undergraduate enrollment that is at least 10 percent Native Hawaiian students.
Proposals for Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions (ICE-TI) projects should provide a clear picture of the current status of the institution's STEM infrastructure and an institutional plan to enhance the STEM program by indicating the anticipated value added by the NSF-supported efforts.
ICE-TI projects are intended to implement significant and sustainable enhancements to the institution's STEM instructional capacity. They should involve all key governance and instructional stakeholders. Therefore, proposals to this TCUP strand should include a description of the project management structure. In addition to the Principal Investigator, (normally, the chief academic officer of the institution, or another senior academic officer responsible for oversight and management of curriculum and instructional policies for the institution), typical project organization consists of a Project Director, and a Steering Committee with lead faculty from the relevant disciplines or programs and administrators from partner institutions, if any.
ICE-TI proposals should also include a plan for establishing an external advisory committee, normally convened by the college or university president or another ranking institutional representative not designated as key personnel on the project. The PI cannot chair the advisory committee, nor can other members of the project leadership serve on the advisory committee. This committee will help guide the implementation and assessment of project activities. The size of the committee is left to the discretion of the proposers. However, there should be adequate representation from partner institutions, industry and the local community, as appropriate, and adequate expertise and experience with the topical and programmatic emphases of the project. Prospective candidates for the committee should be identified in the Project Description.
ICE-TI projects are intended to continue beyond the period of NSF funding. Successful proposals should provide evidence of the commitment of the proposing institution to the improvement of undergraduate STEM education including plans and resource alignment strategies to continue elements of the project after NSF funding ends.
project activities are demonstrated to affect student learning and student access to quality STEM education as defined by measurable quantitative student-based outcomes pre- and post-TCUP investment; e.g., number of STEM majors involved in active learning activities, research activities, or community service; number of STEM majors who have enrolled in and successfully completed newly developed or revised courses or programs; rates of successful completion of STEM gate-keeper courses; student retention in STEM disciplines; number of STEM graduates with grade point averages of 3.0 or higher; number of STEM students matriculating into 4-year colleges or graduate programs; and number of graduates that enter the STEM workforce.
presentations to organizations or other audiences that have access to particular practitioner communities (e.g., professional associations or teacher organizations) of strategies and materials based on project results and providing strategies for reaching their members or other audiences with the resources.
Prospective proposers are encouraged to confer with NSF TCUP staff prior to proposal submission.
TCUP-eligible institutions may submit proposals for Broadening Participation Research in STEM Education projects focused on educational advancement and educational attainment in STEM. Any topic(s) in STEM education and learning at the undergraduate level could be targeted for a TCUP BPR proposal.
influences on the effectiveness of partnerships with and pipelines from K-12 education.
influences on effective integration of formal instruction with research or applied experiences.
The research proposal must address the usefulness of the anticipated outcomes to science-based knowledge of, for example, transforming student learning, transforming recruitment and retention strategies and practices in STEM education at critical educational junctures, or development of the STEM workforce. Research project proposals are neither a substitute for, nor can they be exactly the same as, the evaluation plan for a TCUP Instructional Capacity Excellence, Targeted STEM Infusion Project, Catalyzing Opportunities for Research and Education or Planning Grant proposal. Evaluation and research proposals may overlap to some extent, but the latter should make a significantly greater contribution to scientific knowledge about STEM education, and have a greater focus on studying educational initiatives in ways that are both internally and externally (i.e., generalizable) valid. A plan for dissemination of research results (described further below) must also be included in BPR proposals.
TCUP BPR studies should reflect the challenges and opportunities for STEM education at TCUP- eligible institutions, and in Native communities. Outcomes of the proposed research should be developed with the intent to provide a framework to inform all education, including faculty and teachers, administrators, parents, the community, policymakers, and education researchers. It is anticipated that these efforts may also contribute to the future development of effective learning experiences, retention, and academic success in STEM of all students.
presentations to STEM-discipline conference or other audiences (e.g., professional associations or teacher organizations) of project results.
The CORE project summary should provide a succinct summary of the intellectual merit of the proposed project, and describe the broader impacts of the proposed work, including benefits to society, dissemination of work, enhancements to scientific knowledge, as well as how the proposed activity will broaden participation of underrepresented groups. Project summaries that do not contain separate paragraphs that are labeled and explicitly address both intellectual merit and broader impacts will be returned without review.
plan for evaluation of this project.
Support can be provided for release time during the academic year, summer salary for the PI, travel and housing at the research site for the PI and undergraduate students, and stipends for undergraduate student research experiences.
Cost of equipment cannot exceed 20% of the total budget.
a mentoring plan from the PI for the undergraduate students that are involved in the project.
All proposals to any strand of the TCUP program should provide objectives, benchmarks, and indicators of progress that will be used to judge the effectiveness of the project. The specific elements of the evaluation plan will vary depending on the type and details of project but, in general, evidence of STEM knowledge, skill and aptitude development; and both quantitative and qualitative (e.g., the process of change in organizational culture; student-participants' and other constituents' perceptions of the program) indicators of progress in STEM education should be included.
Each TCUP proposal submission is expected to include a plan for effective project evaluation. An individual must be explicitly designated in the proposal to lead the evaluation. The evaluation plan must correspond to the overall stated goals and objectives of the project. Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions: Formative and summative evaluations should include holistic assessments of student recruitment; curriculum development; and faculty development activities and achievements in addition to evaluation of the direct outcomes (e.g., student participation and achievement; progression of students to advanced degrees or to the workforce) of the educational intervention. Yearly reports should include evaluation indicators to date. Reporting of full evaluation activities should be included in the final project report.

Please refer to the NSF Website for additional information. See especially educational research funding opportunities from other HRD programs (e.g., LSAMP), and those in the NSF's Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE). Information on DUE programs can be found on its website.
Funds should be budgeted for the principal investigator and project director of Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions projects to attend two grantee meetings each year: a three-day meeting in the Washington, DC area and another two-day Leaders' Forum in the midwest or western United States. Funds should be budgeted for the principal investigator of Catalyzing Opportunities in Research and Education awards, and the principal investigator and project director of Broadening Participation Research projects and Targeted STEM Infusion Projects to attend a three-day grantee meeting each year in the Washington, DC area. Instructional Capacity Excellence in TCUP Institutions projects should also budget funds for the project leadership to participate in a reverse site visit to NSF over the course of the total award period.
Special Award Conditions: The Foundation and project leaders to whom it makes awards are obliged to conform to the various acts governing activities affecting the environment and cultural or historic properties. Project leaders should be aware of these acts and adhere to their requirements. Project leaders proposing work that may affect cultural or historic properties, or whose work involves tribal lands must cooperate with the agency in complying with the consultation requirements of section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Project leaders are encouraged to contact TCUP for more information about cultural or historic impact considerations of their proposed field work. For additional information on cultural or historic preservation issues, see the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's web site here.

Kirill Karabits (, deutsche Transkription ) (* 26. Dezember 1976 in Kiew, Ukrainische SSR, Sowjetunion) ist ein ukrainischer Dirigent. Sein Vater, Iwan Karabyz, war ebenfalls Dirigent und ein Komponist.

Leben
In seiner Jugend studierte Karabits Klavier, Musikwissenschaft und Komposition, währenddessen er sich schon im Alter von 13 Jahren für das Dirigieren eines Orchesters interessierte. In Kiew studierte er zunächst an der Lysenko-Musikschule, später an der Nationalen Musikakademie der Ukraine Peter Tschaikowski. 1995 wechselte er an die Musikhochschule Wien und erlangte nach fünf Jahren ein Diplom als Kapellmeister. Danach wechselte er an die Bachakademie in Stuttgart, wo er Schüler von Helmuth Rilling und Peter Gülke war. Mit einer wissenschaftlichen Arbeit im Musik-Archiv der Berliner Singakademie mit der Transkription der vermeintlich verschollenen Partitur der Johannes-Passion von Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach verdiente er sich Anerkennung.

Noch während seiner Studienzeit im Alter von 23 Jahren, von 1999 bis 2000, assistierte er als Dirigent am Festival Orchester Budapest. Danach arbeitete er als außerordentliches Mitglied am Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France von 2002 bis 2005 als Dirigent. Dem schloss sich von 2005 bis 2007 die Tätigkeit des ersten Gastdirigenten am Orchestre Philharmonique de Strasbourg an.

Im Oktober 2006 gastierte er das erste Mal am Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, wo er bei zwei Konzerten mit seinem Können beeindruckt hatte. Im November 2007 gab die Leitung des BSO bekannt, dass die Orchestermitglieder einstimmig für Karabits als Musikdirektor ab 2009 votiert hatten. Seither wurde sein Vertrag mehrfach verlängert, sodass Karabits das BSO 2022 bereits im 13. Jahr leitet. Mit dem BSO bespielte er CDs mit Kompositionen von Rodion Schtschedrin für Naxos und Kompositionen von Aram Chatschaturjan für das Onyx Classics Label.

In einem Artikel der Thüringer Allgemeinen im Juli 2016 wurde bekannt, dass Karabits parallel zu seiner Tätigkeit in Bournemouth, nach dem Auslaufen des Vertrages der siebenjährigen Amtszeit mit Stefan Solyoms im Juli 2016 für zunächst drei Jahre auch als Generalmusikdirektor am Deutschen Nationaltheater und der Staatskapelle Weimar verpflichtet worden war. Karabits hatte in Weimar als Gastdirigent schon zwei Mal in den Jahren 2014 und 2015 gewirkt. Mitte 2018 wurde bekannt, dass Karabits seinen Vertrag mit dem Nationaltheater Weimar nicht verlängert und sein Engagement mit der Spielzeit 2018/19 enden werde.

Today we are going to take a look at the Kraken X40, which is one of NZXT's first attempts at a performance liquid cooler. It is a similar design to the X60, however it features a smaller 140 mm radiator for those who don't have room for a 280 mm unit in their case. We look forward to seeing how it performs in our tests.
Like the Kraken X60, the X40 is based on Asetek technology, making it similar to the Corsair H90. We will be looking at the differences between the two coolers in this review, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each.
We will also look at how it compares to the Kraken X60 and Corsair H110, to show how the larger radiator affects performance. The 140 mm radiator differentiates the X40 from the competition as it has more surface area than the myriad of 120 mm coolers on the market.
World's first all-in-one 140mm cooler with capacity to mount up to two 140mm fans.
High performance pump and copper block with interactive digital fan control.
Integrated HUE controlled LED pump cap.
Large tower support with extended 16″ tubing and premium black sleeved cables for a clean look and improved airflow.
Completed sealed system backed by a 2 year warranty.

La cota és un tipus d'armadura per a protegir el tors, i alguns cops també part dels braços o les cames. És una versió reforçada de la cuirassa. Sobre el suport de cuir es cosien làmines addicionals de cuir, o bé anelles o plaques metàl·liques (armadura de plaques). Un tipus freqüent d'armadura de cota és la cota de malla en què les peces no van cosides sobre un suport sinó que les peces s'entrellacen entre elles.

[Active ingredients in rhubarb with anti-proliferative effects on scar fibroblasts].
This study is to explore the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine rhubarb with antiproliferative activity on hypertrophic scar fibroblasts (HSF). Rhubarb was extracted with Soxhlet extraction method by different polar solvents. MTS method was used to screen rhubarb solvent extracts (25 microg x mL(-1)) with anti-proliferative activity on HSF, and flow cytometry was used to detect their influences on cell cycle. Then, the active ingredients were analyzed by HPLC. The components with high activity were identified by UPLC-Q/TOF and verified by HE staining. The results showed that the ethyl acetate extract of rhubarb had higher anti-proliferative activity (P<0.01), increased significantly the proportion of cells in G0/G1 phase (P<0.01), and reduced the proliferation index (PI) (P<0.01). The main active ingredients were anthraquinones. The results of confirming experiment showed that emodin, rhein and gallic acid could inhibit cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, the ethyl acetate extract of rhubarb showed anti-proliferative activity on HSF, and the anti-proliferative ingredients might be anthraquinones.

JUST CRIMINAL … FBI CLAIMS TEXT MESSAGES BETWEEN PETER STRZOK AND LISA PAGE MISSING.
From The Daily Caller comes this troubling and obvious story, the FBI coincidentally has failed to preserve" five months worth of text messages exchanged between Peter Strzok and Lisa Page. Imagine that. Of all the data that the FBI has some hoe failed to save, it is from the two FBI employees who made pro-Clinton and anti-Trump comments while working on the Clinton email and the Russia collusion investigations. REALLY? Sorry, the FBI needs an enema and individuals need to be prosecuted and go to prison. These types of corrupt actions cannot take place in America. The FBI has lost all credibility and this does "stink to the high heavens." Who honestly thinks this data is really lost forever, even as the FBI may try to cover their corrupt tracks?
JOHN adds: Given the manner in which Barack Obama politicized the upper reaches of the FBI, along with the rest of the Department of Justice–we know that the Bureau's Deputy Director, Andrew McCabe, was involved in discussions of how the FBI might deprive Donald Trump of the presidency–I have absolutely no confidence that the Bureau's deleting of five months' worth of critical texts was accidental.
JOE adds: We don't know whether the FBI's five-month records evaporation was deliberate or mere incompetence. But there is no doubt that those text messages can be found. Whereas once upon a time a text message was sent from one cell phone, to a tower, briefly cached, and sent to the recipient cell phone, today text messages are transmitted over cloud-based platforms that all, with rare exceptions, save the complete data. Moreover, it isn't just in one place (say, Google's messaging platform, or Apple's iMessage platform) where these messages are saved. Each party's smart phone is backed up, probably both to the cloud and to a home computer. These backups, too, would contain the text messages in question.
This is beyond corruption. We have a politicized FBI that was weaponized against a presidential candidate in Donald Trump and then tried to stage a coup to overthrow a duly elected president … now covering up their crimes!!! Via The Gateway Pundit, on Sunday afternoon Freedom Caucus Chairman and Rep. Jim Jordan called for a second special counsel investigation of the corrupt FBI.
HMM, I GUESS AL SHARPTON AND JESSEE JACKSON WON'T BE VISITING NJ TO PROTEST HATE CRIMES … BLACK ON BLACK CRIME.
24 year old Kayla-Simone McKelvey, of Union, New Jersey, who recently graduated from Kean University in May 2015 finds her self in some hot water that she completely created, or should we say, made up. The black female Kean alum has been charged with third-degree creating a false public alarm after she tweeted threatening comments on Twitter stating, "i will kill every black male and female at kean university".
Third-degree Creating a False Public Alarm? Sorry, she should be cgarged with a hate crime as her sole intent was to create friction and animosity among backs and whites. Now that is truly hateful.
A recent Kean graduate has been charged with being responsible for a series of tweets threatening black students at the school two weeks ago, acting Union County Prosecutor Grace H. Park announced Tuesday.
DRIP, DRIP, DRIP … And the Hillary Clinton email/private server scandal keeps on coming. Just when you thought there was only one IT company involved in Hillary Clinton's email server, there now appears to be another. Datto Inc., an IT company based in Norwalk, CT, has become the second firm to get caught up in the Hillary email/server scandal. The Connecticut based company to provide Hillary's server data to the FBI. Hmm, remember when it was said that Hillary's server was wiped/scrubbed clean? Not so fast. As Doug Powers at Michelle Malkin.com opines, maybe Val the bartender can explain to Hillary how her secure emails got in the Cloud.
Oh what a tangled web we weave, when we practice to deceive. But of course Hillary Clinton will tell you that she is the most transparent individual ever. More from McClatchy DC.
As reported at the NY Post, NYC attorney have warned Dominique Sharpton, the daughter of Rev. Al Sharpton, not to destroy or delete any pics on her Instagram account, like the ones that show her hiking in Bali. The 28 year old Sharpton is suing NYC for $5 million claiming she fell in the street and sprained her ankle that supposedly left her "severely injured, bruised and wounded". Dominique's lawsuit states she "still suffers and will continue to suffer for some time physical pain and bodily injuries;" however, she stupidly posted hiking pics on her Instagram account showing her hiking in atop an Indonesian mountain and making comments regarding how tough the hikes were. CAN YOU SAY BUSTED!!!
City lawyers warned Dominique Sharpton not to delete Instagram photos like this one atop an Indonesian mountain — where she trekked while claiming in a lawsuit that she has "permanent" injuries.


Early in 2018, on behalf of the PPTF, Lythos Studios applied for a Marketing Leverage Program Grant (MLP) with Virginia Tourism Corporation and was awarded a full $50,000 matching grant. The grant was used to create a marketing campaign focused on the Tiffany Windows at Blandford Church. The campaign began in April 2018 and ended in December. The results were amazing-a 76% increase in tourism over the same period of 2017. Great creative and strategy yield highly effective results. Those results were so impressive, the PPTF applied another MLP grant for 2019 and was awarded $25,000 to continue the efforts of marketing the museums in Petersburg through the end of 2019.

Roseanne Barr: 'Hillary Clinton Is The Same Old S***'
Kaitlan Collins White House Correspondent
Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton won't be receiving any endorsements from comedian Roseanne Barr, who said it didn't matter that Clinton was a woman running for president — "She's the same old shit."
"I think she's a Democrat just like they all are," Barr said. "She seems like every other Democrat. I would not like to see her win."
In a recent interview, Barr, who ran as the Peace and Freedom Party's candidate back in 2012, said she just doesn't see a Clinton win happening in 2016. (RELATED: Are Hillary Clinton And Huma Hungover? This Photo Could Be Proof)

"But it will be interesting to see how the process goes — although its kind of offensive that the American people for 21 months have to live through the mudslinging that goes on between the two parties, which I think is just a tactic to prevent government from doing anything about any of our problems."
The Daily Beast asked Barr if she thought another Clinton in the White House, should Hillary be elected, would carry any "symbolism."
"'Symbolically'? What does that mean? I would rather see the first intelligent, honest American president."
"I don't care what's in their shorts. I don't care what it looks like down there at all. The thing I did like Hillary for was that she was the first candidate who ever listened to what women said, because she had to."
