Immunocore names AstraZeneca exec as new CEO
Clinical stage biotechnology company Immunocore has announced the appointment of AstraZeneca executive Bahija Jallal as the company's new CEO.
The privately held, Oxford-based firm is focused on the research and development of biological drugs to treat cancer, infectious diseases and autoimmune diseases using soluble T-cell receptor (TCR) technology.
Bringing to the role more than 25 years' worth of experience Jallal joins Immunocore from AstraZeneca subsidiary MedImmune, the company's global biologics research and development arm, where she is president and a member of the senior executive team.
Having authored more than 70 peer-reviewed publications Jallal holds in excess of 15 patents. Under her leadership, MedImmune has seen the development of a number of medicines including cancer drug Imfinzi, having expanded its pipeline from 40 to more than 130 molecules.
Sir John Bell, Chairman of Immunocore, commented: "Bahija is the ideal candidate to lead Immunocore at this transformational point in its development. A champion for science and diversity, Bahija is a highly seasoned pharmaceutical executive with considerable experience in biologics R&D and immuno-oncology. Her appointment will significantly strengthen Immunocore as we advance our lead candidate, IMCgp100, towards commercialisation, and our growing pipeline of TCR candidates through clinical development. I would like to extend my thanks also to Andrew Hotchkiss, who has been a highly capable interim CEO of Immunocore, for his support."

Q: If I am a future teller and made a prediction yesterday about something two days in the future, how do we use tenses here? I happened to imagine this particular situation, which is quite unreal.
But I am curious how we use verb tenses to describe the situation.
Let's say I am future teller. I can tell the future.
One day I write down what my girlfriend will say two days in the future. And I tell this to my friend one day later.
I know it is confusing. Let me put it in a simple way like this.

5/24 - Me writing down the words my girlfriend will say on 5/26.
5/25 - Me telling to my friend about the prophecy.
5/26 - The date when my girlfriend says what I have predicted.

My question is here: the conversation happens on 5/25.

*

*Me: Hey, mate. Yesterday I wrote down what my girlfriend will say.

*Me: Hey, mate. Yesterday I wrote down what my girlfriend would say.

Which one is correct?

A:
(Yesterday) I wrote down what she will say (tomorrow).

There is a misconception sometimes expressed here that subordinate clauses in a sentence must have the same tense as the main clause. This is often the case, but it is not a grammatical rule, just that, usually the time referred to in the subordinate clause is the same as in the main clause.
But there are plenty of examples where this is not true, and the "fortuneteller" example is one example.
Using "would" is also possible, but this suggests some condition that is unspoken or implied:

... what she would say tomorrow [ if ...]

You can also use other future constructions

... what she is going to say
  ... what she says when she first sees me tomorrow.

A: Considering the grammatical timeline set by the main verb (past tense), the choice of "would" could be better, due to the corresponding verb tense agreement.  Besides, "I wrote down what my girlfriend would say" could mean talking about the future in the past, and the usage of the word "would" seems more appropriate.

Clostridium butyricum attenuates cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in diabetic mice via modulation of gut microbiota.  – thumbs up for Miyarisan!
" We provide support for microbial mediation of the therapeutic effects of metformin through short-chain fatty acid production, as well as for potential microbiota-mediated mechanisms behind known intestinal adverse effects in the form of a relative increase in abundance of Escherichia species. Controlling for metformin treatment, we report a unified signature of gut microbiome shifts in T2D with a depletion of butyrate-producing taxa. These in turn cause functional microbiome shifts, in part alleviated by metformin-induced changes. Overall, the present study emphasizes the need to disentangle gut microbiota signatures of specific human diseases from those of medication."  again Miyarisan is implied.
The most interesting take-away was the use of bicarbonate-rich mineral water. This is actual clinical study confirmation of the health-loosing aspect of using soft water (see this post).

Third, the typical medication used for diabetes increases E.Coli and alters the microbiome, but not necessarily the right strains.
Last, there appear to be specific families (for example Blautia) that may be strongly associated with diabetes risk.

Manchester City vs Real Madrid Match-Day Experience – Written by Eleanya Ndukwe Jr.
"I was too pissed to notice the aesthetic makeup of the Los Angeles, Coliseum Olympic stadium, and the fact that dad laughed at me every single time Madrid conceded didn't help much. But that's on the side though.
Anyway, it was beautiful. Lots of energy, excitement among fans and even the security personnel.
With every piece of skill, or move or attempt on goal came a thunderous uproar of joy. It was beautiful.
Every football fan should experience live football…always. I'm so looking forward to attending the UEFA Champions League final and World Cup in the future.
I love the rush of excitement and the beauty that comes with knowing that I live once. I have to make it count.

The professionals on our Program Evaluation team have solid and successful track records in the design and execution of program evaluations in a range of human services and intervention environments. We've helped juvenile and criminal justice agencies, behavioral health organizations, chemical dependency programs, sexual assault and domestic violence victim service agencies, providers of emergency and supportive housing for homeless adults, and family and children's services agencies. In addition to individual program evaluations, we also work well as liaison between multiple program sites and as cross-site evaluators.
In every one of our evaluation projects, beginning with our initial involvement, we work closely with our clients' staff members and administrators to identify key elements, processes and expected outcomes. We know that effective program evaluations are carefully designed for the special needs of each situation. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all evaluations—we prepare and implement projects according to our clients' custom needs, not for our own convenience.
We generate accurate and timely data analyses, incorporating both standard and innovative methods. And we produce excellent reports of findings and results presented through written reports and verbal presentations.
If you're not looking for a full evaluation, we can develop and pilot-test data collection instruments, such as surveys, inventories and questionnaires. We're also available to extract data from pre-existing sources.
Or you can hire us by the hour to provide advice, technical assistance and consultation.

Beware a new wave of populism, born out of coronavirus-induced economic inequity | Nick Cohen
Big businesses and governments are fast making themselves inviolable. There could be a backlash
A global wave of injustice could follow the global pandemic. Pre-existing tendencies towards monopoly, Chinese dominance and predatory capitalism will explode unless governments take measures to contain them. I accept that it is hard to imagine public fury at a rigged economy when voters are rallying to their leaders and lockdowns are enjoying overwhelming support. Solidarity cannot last, however, as the crisis accentuates the division between insiders and outsiders.
You see them now. Employees with staff jobs, and the ability to work from home, are coping, for the moment. A few might experience lockdown as something close to a holiday and rhapsodise on the joys of home baking and box sets. As insiders stay inside, they save the money they would have spent in shops, restaurants, hotels and travel agents – the places where the insecure, the luckless nine out of 10 in the bottom half of earners who cannot work from home, once made their livings.
What applies to individuals applies to corporations and private equity funds that are strong enough to buy up distressed assets at a fraction of their pre-crisis value. I sat up and paid attention last week when I heard Sebastian Mallaby of the US Council on Foreign Relations warn that private equity is likely to play both sides: soaking up government largesse and profiting from market mayhem. It wont, he concluded, look great when we consider the political economy of the pandemic a year from now.
You catch a glimpse of the future in the manoeuvres of the US private equity firms thinking of deploying hundreds of billions of dollars they hold in reserve as high-interest loans to struggling companies. The arguments this month about a Chinese state-owned investment firm buying up the British chip manufacturer Imagination Technologies are a further harbinger of a possible world to come. The Chinese Communist Partys 2025 Made in China strategy sees it leapfrogging the west by taking over companies and establishing a global lead in smart manufacturing, digitisation and emerging technologies. Covid-19 gives the party the opportunity it needs. Funds and states are operating in a market where the tendency towards monopoly was already established.
The 2008 crash, like recessions before it, concentrated economic power, as large firms used their resources and access to finance to ensure their survival. But, unlike in the last century, a multitude of rival businesses did not emerge once recession had passed, to provide competition and new employment opportunities for workers wanting to raise their wages by switching firms. In 2016, according to the Resolution Foundation, Britains 100 biggest firms accounted for 23% of total revenue across the economy, up by a quarter since 2004. As the economic crisis we are entering looks worse than 2008, worse indeed than anything anyone alive can remember, the rise of corporate giants seems assured. Big governments and this crisis is making governments bigger than ever will welcome them, because they want the convenience of dealing with big businesses, not with tens of thousands of small and medium-size firms.
Do you begin to see how popular fury might build? Vulture capitalists swooping on undervalued assets. Chinese communists, who censored news of Covid-19 rather than alerting the world, benefiting rather than suffering. Big business trampling over all who might challenge it. Its not a recipe for social peace.
Superficially, the crisis of 2020 does not appear anything like the financial crisis of 2007-08 and not only because it threatens to bring an incomparably greater level of impoverishment. Then there were human villains: bankers and captured regulators who broke the financial system, northern Europeans who congratulated themselves as they let southern Europe collapse. Now theres just an invisible infectious agent that wants only to replicate itself. The similarities remain striking, for all that. Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling, like leaders across the west, werent interested in jailing bankers or making them pay back their bonuses. Their sole concern was to stop the collapse of the banking system. The morality of the bailout could wait forever, as it turned out. Everywhere in the west, the public reaction was the same. Democracy was a racket. Taxpayers had to rescue the richest people in the world and then suffer years of stagnant wages and cut public services to meet the bill. If you need a one-line explanation for populism, this is the best there is.
Yet again, vast amounts of public money are being committed, but instead of stagnation we face catastrophe. Nervous commentators rererence how the Great Depression of the 1930s fuelled nazism and communism, as 2008 fuelled populism, and dread what awaits us. They should know there is no necessary link between economic and political failure. Far from enabling tyranny, the economic crisis of the 1970s, for instance, saw the end of the rightwing tyrannies in Spain, Portugal and Greece and the beginning of the decline and fall of the Soviet empire. Our future depends not only on the work of scientists but on the efforts of governments to stop democracy turning into a swindle.
The EU says countries must ensure that big business doesnt use state funding to buy out rivals and adds that nation states should take stakes in companies threatened with Chinese takeovers. However the UKs relationship with the EU ends, thats good advice.
Governments should not forget natural justice as they did in 2008. Complaints about tax-exile billionaires in the Richard Branson mould wanting other peoples money are a warning, not a tabloid distraction. If, as seems likely, the government moves from subsidising wages to direct loans to big business, the first question must be what do taxpayers, employees and wider society gain in return.
Sociologists talk of the Matthew effect, an idea lifted from Saint Matthews account of the most unChristian words Jesus uttered: For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away. Our task is to make sure this miserable prophecy is not now vindicated.

Enterobacteriaceae is a gram-negative bacteria that can cause infections in healthcare settings, including pneumonia, bloodstream infections, wound or surgical site infections, and meningitis. Increasingly, Enterobacteriaceae bacteria have developed antibiotic resistance, most recently to the class of antibiotics known as carbapenems. When bacteria such as Enterobacteriaceae produce an enzyme known as a carbapenemase, they are referred to as carbapenemase producing organisms or carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE). This is considered a threat to patient safety because carbapenem antibiotics often are the last line of defense against gram-negative infections that are resistant to other antibiotics.


Fear not for stepping out causes others to step in.
You are capable of inspiring one, two, three… Countless. All you must do is think of yourself less and others more.
Other people's opinions of you are not as important as the mission that you have been given to accomplish. So what if people make fun of the fact that you like to write deep thoughts at 1 am in the morning on a Friday night. You're inspiring even one person. That in itself should be enough to distract you from those who throw hate because they're afraid to try.
There is so much greater in life than the fourteen seconds someone takes to hate on your passion.
You might not realize how much of an influence you're making; nonetheless, change is beginning to unsurface itself. You are transforming someone else's life.
Isn't that powerful enough to cause you to finally chase whatever it is that you've been pushing aside in fears of what others might think?
Thank you so much for the kind words. That's the dream.


Thailand's Chuleekorn captures the essence of boho chic with the design of this wristband bracelet. She crochets brass beads and agates dyed in many colours with khaki threads, adding labradorite buttones to fasten this beautiful bracelet at one of two lengths.
"Some days I sit and enjoy late-night knitting sessions because I can't wait to see how the necklace looks when finished."
"Growing up in Bangkok, I always played boy-games with my brothers. Not having any sisters to play with, I learned instead to assemble robots and airplanes. To this day we have dozens of aircraft collections which made ourselves.
"Another activity I enjoyed doing was going with my mom to buy fabric to be tailored into clothes at Bang Lam Phoo Town. Back then there weren't many ready-made clothes like there are now, and Bang Lam Phoo was the commercial town for most fabric shops. We usually went there every week, but the shops I was more interested in were bead and craft equipment shops, where I would admire the colorful beads while mom selected her textiles. Mom would allow me to buy just a few beads and I remember that I didn't do anything with those beads, just keep them where I could admire their exotic beauty.
"I was born into a warm and loving family, and my parents' main concern was that we'd grow to become good people and not get into trouble. Though they didn't pressure us with our studies, I finished high school with good grades and they supported me when I had the opportunity to study Graphic Design in Australia. During my free time, I would assemble aircrafts to help me feel less homesick.
"I also enjoyed crafting art jewelry. I saw one of my friends wearing an original necklace which I loved, so I started to study how to make jewelry and bought a starter kit. I made my first pendant with natural beads and gave it to my classmate on her birthday. I wasn't sure she would love it, but luckily she did! Many of my friends asked me to make some for them too!
"When I returned to Thailand, I started working in a manufacturing company thanks to my expertise with RC airplane. I hadn't even studied in this field; it all came from my childhood games with my brothers! After that, I got a job with a renowned graphics company, where I would spend almost all day and night working. I had earned a lot from working, but one day I began to realize that I was away from family, friends, and the things that I love. I would hardly talk with my parents and friends. Therefore, I chose to quit even though some people thought it wasn't a good decision to leave a job where I was earning more than most people my age. I did not know what to do next, but I needed to spend time with my family, have free time to go on holidays, eat together with family and friends, and do what I love: drawing and art jewelry.
"I had time to visit my relatives in Chiang Mai and I fell in love with the city. My relatives suggested I buy land next to them and build my own home, and I agreed immediately! With my parents' blessings, I moved there with my dog and built a one-bedroom house. I love the way of life here, I have more time and I enjoy looking after the vegetables I plant. I usually give some to my neighbors and when they cook them in curries, they let me have some in return. I have adapted well to the Chiang Mai way of life, and even my parents say they've noticed it has done me good to live here.
"Moving to Chiang Mai has given me the chance to work on things I prefer. I began to knit necklaces with unusual stones and rope. I taught myself how to crochet the candle rope, insert a beautiful stone and knit it into bracelet or necklace.
"I would send the finish pieces to my mother, she has experience in several crafts, and she would reply back with some advice on how to improve. One day I got a very good opportunity from my friend who gave me her area at the walking street market on Sundays to sell my necklaces. I was quite concerned because I had never sold at a market, but nevertheless, the response was better than expected!
"With my background in arts, my designs have evolved since then, blending thread colors, laces, and colored stone. Some days I sit and enjoy late-night knitting sessions because I can't wait to see how the necklace looks when finished. I have improved my knitting and crochet skills so I include other local materials such as clothes from the different hill tribe's which are embroidered with beautiful patterns.
"I've found such a favorable demand for my products that I've enlisted the help of a woman who has known me since I was little, as well as a that of a neighbor. Thanks to their help, I am able to design new products.
"One day I met a person from Novica, and I was very interested in what she had to say. After looking up the Novica website I became fascinated. I like that not only do they promote artisans and their products, they also showcase great foreign cultures. I was also impressed with their artisan videos. All of this encouraged me to take part in Novica so people can find out more of Thailand through me and my products. I hope you like them!"

Famous & 65
Look Who's Turning 65
Sept. 7—Chrissie Hynde
Best known as a founding member of the rock band the Pretenders, Chrissie Hynde has been the only constant member of the band throughout its history. "I saw her play in Central Park [when the Pretenders played in August 1980]," Madonna recalled. "She was amazing: the only woman I'd seen in performance where I thought, Yeah, she's awesome! . . . It gave me courage, inspiration, to see a woman with that kind of confidence in a man's world."
Born in Akron, Ohio in 1951, Hynde later moved to London, where she landed a position at the music magazine NME and got to know Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious (of the Sex Pistols). In the midst of the early punk movement, she joined several short-lived bands. In 1978, Hynde started putting together a band with Pete Farndon (bass guitar, vocals), James Honeyman-Scott (guitar, vocals, keyboards) and Martin Chambers (drums, vocals, percussion). The name Pretenders was inspired by the Sam Cooke version of the Platters' 1955 R&B song "The Great Pretender."
They recorded a demo tape (including "Precious," "The Wait" and a Kinks cover, "Stop Your Sobbing"), produced a single ("Stop Your Sobbing"/"The Wait") and performed their first gigs in a club in Paris. The single was released in January 1979 and hit the Top 30 in the U.K. Later that spring (1979), the Pretenders recorded their eponymous first album and hit the charts in the U.K. and U.S. with the song "Brass in Pocket." The band released an EP album, titled Extended Play, then Pretenders II later in the summer, which included "Talk of the Town" and "Message of Love."
Hynde has also released numerous hits with other musicians, including Frank Sinatra, UB40, Sheryl Crow and Emmylou Harris. In 2005, the Pretenders were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio. In 2014, Hynde released a new album, Stockholm, featuring contributions from Neil Young and John McEnroe. In 2015, she published an autobiography, Reckless: My Life as a Pretender. Hynde is also an animal rights activist and a supporter of PETA and the animal rights group Viva! She lives in London and also has an apartment in the Northside Lofts in her hometown of Akron.
Sept. 5—Michael Keaton
The actor, comedian, producer and director first rose to fame for his comedic film roles in Night Shift (1982), Mr. Mom (1983), Johnny Dangerously (1984) and Beetlejuice (1988), and he earned further acclaim for his dramatic portrayal of the title character in Tim Burton's Batman (1989) and Batman Returns (1992). Keaton's critically praised lead performance in Birdman (2014) earned him several awards. Keaton first appeared on TV in Pittsburgh public television programs, including Mister Rogers' Neighborhood (1975). After moving to Los Angeles, he appeared in various popular TV shows, including Maude and The Mary Tyler Moore Hour. Around this time, Keaton adopted a stage name to avoid confusion with well-known actor Michael Douglas and daytime host Mike Douglas. He chose Keaton because of an affinity for the physical comedy of Buster Keaton. He showed off his comedic talents with James Belushi in the short-lived comedy series Working Stiffs, which led to a co-starring role in the comedy Night Shift, directed by Ron Howard. His role as the fast-talking schemer Bill "Blaze" Blazejowski earned Keaton critical acclaim, and he scored leads in the subsequent comedy hits Mr. Mom, Johnny Dangerously and Gung Ho.
His title character in Tim Burton's 1988 horror-comedy Beetlejuice earned Keaton widespread acclaim and boosted him to movieland's A-list. Keaton's career was given another major boost when he was again cast by Tim Burton, this time as the title comic book superhero of 1989's Batman. Keaton's dramatic performance earned widespread acclaim from critics and audiences alike, and Batman became one of the most successful films of the year. During the 1990s, Keaton appeared in a wide range of films, including Pacific Heights, The Paper and twice in the same role as Elmore Leonard character Agent Ray Nicolette, in Jackie Brown and Out of Sight. In the early 2000s, Keaton appeared in several films with mixed success, including Live From Baghdad (for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe award), First Daughter, White Noise and Herbie: Fully Loaded. While he continued to receive good notices from the critics (particularly for Jackie Brown), he was not able to revive the box-office success of Batman until the release of Disney/Pixar's Cars (2006), in which he voiced Chick Hicks.
For his role in the 2007 TV miniseries The Company, Keaton received a 2008 SAG nomination for Outstanding Performance. He provided the voice of Ken in Toy Story 3 (2010), which received overwhelmingly positive acclaim and grossed over $1 billion worldwide, making it one of the most financially successful films ever. In 2014, Keaton starred in Birdman as a screen actor famous for playing the iconic titular superhero, who tries to regain his former glory. For his portrayal, he won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy and received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor. In the 1980s, Keaton bought a ranch near Big Timber, Montana, where he spends much of his time.
Sept. 20—Guy Lafleur
The Canadian former professional ice hockey player was the first player in the National Hockey League (NHL) to score 50 goals and 100 points in six straight seasons. Between 1971 and 1991, he played for the Montreal Canadiens, New York Rangers and Quebec Nordiques in an NHL career spanning 17 seasons, and five Stanley Cup championships (all five with the Canadiens). Lafleur started playing hockey at the age of 5 after receiving his first hockey stick as a Christmas present. In his teens, Lafleur gained considerable recognition for his play as a member of the Quebec Remparts of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, where he led his team to the Memorial Cup in 1971, scoring 130 regular season goals. He was a cornerstone of five Stanley Cup championship teams. He was one of the most popular players on a very popular team; fans chanted "Guy, Guy, Guy!" whenever he touched the puck. He became known among English fans as "Flower" due to the literal translation of his surname, while among French fans he was dubbed "le Démon Blond" (the Blond Demon).
When the Canadiens' dynasty came to an end in 1979 and injuries shortened Lafleur's 1980–1981 season, he decided to retire. After being inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, he came out of retirement to return to the NHL for three more seasons, from 1988 through 1991, with the New York Rangers and the Quebec Nordiques. Due to a grandfather clause, Lafleur remained one of the few players who did not wear protective helmets. He is the all-time leading scorer in Canadiens history, notching 1,246 points (518 goals and 728 assists) in his 14 years with the Habs. He led the NHL in points in 1976, 1977 and 1978. Lafleur was also the fastest player (at the time) to reach 1,000 points, doing so in only 720 games. In 1988 Lafleur was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. In 1998, he was ranked No. 11 on The Hockey News' list of the 100 Greatest Hockey Players. Lafleur currently operates a helicopter rental company in Montreal that shuttles VIPs to and from the airport.
Sept. 25—Mark Hamill
The actor is best known for his portrayal of Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars film series. Released in May 1977, Star Wars was an enormous unexpected success and made a huge impact on the film industry. Hamill also appeared in the Star Wars Holiday Special in 1978 and later starred in the successful sequels The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. For both of the sequels, he was honored with the Saturn Award for Best Actor given by the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films. In 2015, Hamill appeared in Star Wars: The Force Awakens and will continue to star in the new trilogy, alongside fellow Star Wars actors Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher.
After the success of Star Wars, Hamill appeared on teen magazine covers. To avoid typecasting, he appeared in the 1978 film Corvette Summer and the better known 1980 World War II film The Big Red One. To further distance himself from his early blockbuster role, Hamill started acting on Broadway, starring in plays such as The Elephant Man in 1979, Amadeus in 1983 and Harrigan 'N Hart in 1985 (for which he received a Drama Desk Award nomination). After a six-year hiatus, Hamill returned to film with the 1989 science fiction film Slipstream and continued to star in films throughout the 1990s, including the thriller Midnight Ride and The Guyver in 1991. When the Wing Commander series of computer games started using full motion video cut scenes, he was cast as the series protagonist. He also directed and starred in the 2004 direct-to-DVD Comic Book: The Movie, which won an award for Best Live-Action DVD Premiere Movie at the 2005 DVD Exclusive Awards.
Hamill has gained a reputation as a prolific voice actor. Though the voice role he is most known for is Batman's archenemy, the Joker, his success as the Joker has led him to portray a wide variety of characters in television, film, anime and video games (mostly similar super-villains). Hamill was the voice of The Hobgoblin in the 1990s Spider-Man animated series, as well as in other Marvel superhero genre roles. Non-comic related television roles include Dr. Jak in Phantom 2040, Christopher "Maverick" Blair in Wing Commander Academy and Buzz Buzzard in The New Woody Woodpecker Show. In animated films, he has voiced roles in Sinbad: Beyond the Veil of Mists, Joseph: King of Dreams and Futurama: Bender's Big Score. Notable video game voice roles include those in Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers, Soldier of Fortune II: Double Helix and the LucasArts game Full Throttle.

The story is spread out over several generations and illustrates multiple conflicts. An array of well-drawn characters make the wider picture personal and intimate.
In short, it was a real pleasure for me to read.
The book fares well on all accounts: It is well researched but not overloaded with unneccessary detail; it moves through the years fast enough to keep track of the overall development, yet it stays long enough with the characters to make their predicament understood; In short: History made feel real and alive. From the prologue to the epilogue I truly enjoyed this work of art.
This book sounds right up my street. Thanks so much for giving us your take on it.
I've just bought and downloaded it!

The department offers a PhD program focusing on teaching, researching, and training in theory and methods. The program is designed for students seeking a PhD and students obtain their master's en route to the PhD, thus we do not offer a separate MA program. More information about program specifics can be found in the Graduate Handbook.
Additionally, advanced graduate students are encouraged to teach their own courses as graduate part-time instructors (GPTIs). The department encourages graduate students to pursue opportunities for funded research wherever possible and supports the efforts of other university units in which students may seek financial support for their research, such as the Institute of Behavioral Science. Aside from teaching and research, the University of Colorado Boulder offers a wide array of courses for graduate students taught by a diverse and well-regarded faculty.
The goal of the Sociology Graduate Student Collective is to strengthen graduate student representation in departmental decision making.


Marimekko design team drew inspiration from personal growth stories and created a dialogue between iconic archive prints in the 50's to 70's and contemporary prints developed by younger generation designers for Spring Summer 2018 collection. The rich heritage of Marimekko serves as a seedbed for its designs of today and to grow further into the future.
Bold prints of the new season are seen in crisp primary colours of yellow, red and blue as well as botanical green. The materials range from silk, poplin to woven cotton and linen, all printed in Marimekko's in-house printing factory in Helsinki, which is also the innovation hub of the brand's creatives. The collection fully showcases Marimekko's art of print making.
Throughout the year 2018 Marimekko will celebrate the 50th anniversary of one of its most beloved stripe patterns, Tasaraita (evenly striped).
Designer Annika Rimala created this new symbol for the era of unisex in 1968, a time of reformist and brave ideas and actions, where passionate battles for equality also extended to fashion. This iconic stripe has been part of Marimekko cotton jersey line ever since, our symbol of equality regardless of gender, age or race; and during 50th anniversary the print grows into woven cotton line for the first time.

Just one week after the royal couple named four charities to consider donating to in lieu of sending baby gifts, they're updating fans of their enormous effect - even before their son or daughter has arrived! But if you take a closer look at the caption, you'll notice that the occasional American spelling crops up, such as "re-energized" instead of "re-energised".
A statement released from Kensington Palace read: "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very grateful for the goodwill they have received from people throughout the United Kingdom and around the world as they prepare to welcome their baby".
"Their royal highnesses wanted you to know the impact of your support - the direct effect your donation, energy, and action made! YOU chose to be part of the collective good, and you have a made a real difference". "And on behalf of The Duke and Duchess (and Baby Sussex), we thank you so much", a photo of the couple clapping during their March visit to Canada House in London for a Commonwealth Day event was captioned.
Since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex don't plan on sharing their baby's arrival at first, it must look like their offices are continuing to operate.
In addition to taking a different route, they might try to make it to the hospital in the middle of the night or early morning - even if Meghan Markle is only in the early stages of labor. Leaving in the middle of the night or early morning means fewer eyes on her and Prince Harry.


April 6, 2019 update: Our last puppy went home today. Thanks to everyone! We're pretty sure we've got at least one more litter of puppies on the way pretty soon. I've learned over the past month that it's easier to stay pupdated through our facebook page, so that's a more reliable way to keep pup-to-date on our puppy status. Our facebook page is Kansascountrycollies .
Welcome to Country Collies! We've got puppies again! Gracie gave birth to 8 puppies on January 23, 2019. If you're reading this and wanting to take one of the adorable little guys or gals home with you, give us a call at the number below. Looks like we have 4 males and 4 females...asking $250 for the males and $300 for females. Gracie is AKC registered, but the sire's (Levi's) litter, was never registered, so although these are purebred collie puppies they won't come with papers. They should be ready to go mid-March (the 16th is a Saturday, so we'll say about then).
We also have a facebook page. Search for Kansascountrycollies and you can find some more updates there.
Also, we've still got one of the puppies from the last litter available. He's a male and also does not come with papers, but if you're interested in him let us know--and you won't have to wait until March 16th to take him, either. If you scroll down the page you can see some of his puppy pics.
Thanks for looking, and we hope we hear from you!

Three desktop virtualization trends that won't go away in 2013
Gabe Knuth shares more of his favorite desktop virtualization trends from the past year -- and these won't be leaving the forefront anytime soon.
Gabe Knuth, Independent industry analyst
Last week, I shared some of my favorite things from 2012 -- desktop virtualization trends and products that excited me during the year. But that's not all.
There are three more stories that will be important to the VDI industry as we head into 2013. Here's how Microsoft licensing, Dell acquisitions and the consumerization of IT will affect desktop virtualization pros in the new year:
Microsoft licensing remains a thorn in our sides
Last week I discussed the OnLive vs. Microsoft licensing controversy in depth, so what does that mean for admins in 2013?
One good thing about OnLive's misuse of Windows 7 licenses was that it called attention to the fact that Microsoft does not offer a Service Provider License Agreement (SPLA) for Windows 7. Not only does OnLive have to deal with an issue like that, so do all the other Desktop as a Service (DaaS) providers in the world. As OnLive showed, the technology to effectively share hardware to run secure desktops exists, but organizations are prevented from using it by Microsoft's licensing practices.
That means that even though DaaS would be a perfect option for smaller deployments that want to access remote desktops without having to know all the intricacies of desktop virtualization, it's not cost-effective for a DaaS provider to put together standalone hardware for them.
More VDI news from 2012
Top 10 VDI news stories of the year
2012: A year of VDI acquisitions
VDI market shifts away from Terminal Services
It may sound like the only people affected are service providers, but there are still many challenges with Microsoft VDI licensing that will carry over into the new year. Using Windows 7 licenses with VDI requires Software Assurance (SA), and if your primary device doesn't have it, then you need to buy a Virtual Desktop Access (VDA) license. On top of that, you're also required to buy additional VDA licenses for other devices accessing your virtual desktop.
Microsoft attempted to change this with Windows 8 licensing, adopting the Companion Device License (CDL). Purchasing a CDL in addition to SA or VDA entitles you to use up to four other devices while at the office. Sounds great, but if you try to take them home, you still have to have a VDA license for them. (Incidentally, if you buy a Microsoft Surface tablet running Windows RT, your license is included and you can use it whenever and wherever you want. Go figure.)
On top of all this, you are technically required to have a Microsoft Office license for every single device that accesses Office. That means that if you have a physical desktop, an Apple iPhone, iPad, virtual desktop and a laptop, you need five Office licenses, despite the fact that you already own it.
We can only hope something changes with Microsoft licensing in 2013, but be careful what you wish for. Sometimes changes aren't all they're cracked up to be.
Dell goes acquisition-crazy
In the span of just a few months, Dell acquired two companies that are near and dear to the desktop virtualization market: Wyse Technology and Quest Software.
The acquisition of Wyse, makers of thin clients for the past 15 years and of dumb terminals for many years before that, was expected in light of the heavy competition that Dell was getting from Hewlett-Packard. HP thin clients are the largest competitor to Wyse, and Dell had almost no thin-client offering to speak of. The move made and continues to make sense. There's no doubt that Dell can be successful integrating Wyse's expertise in thin clients into their supply chain and sales channel in 2013.
The $2.4 billion Quest acquisition was more complicated, both because of the number of products that Quest had and because of the arduous task of sorting them out among the different Dell focuses. Quest has storage, monitoring and database management products that are highly regarded, and those took the lion's share of the spotlight post-acquisition. Still, our focus rested solely on what would happen with vWorkspace, one of the "Big Three" VDI and Remote Desktop Session Host platforms on the market. At first, Dell seemed content to let vWorkspace ride off into the sunset, but they're still making announcements and enhancing the product.
I've always had a soft spot for vWorkspace, and I hope that it remains in the discussion in 2013. There's much work to be done with Hyper-V 3, Windows Server 2012 and the changes that Microsoft has implemented in RemoteFX. Quest has been Microsoft's biggest supporter for many years, and I expect them to augment Microsoft's base technology with its own improvements this year.
Desktop virtualization feels the consumerization love
The last thing that sticks out to me about 2012 is that this was the year we really started to understand what the consumerization of IT and desktop virtualization are all about -- and why they always seem to go hand in hand.
Ultimately, all we care about as user-focused IT people is getting users access to their data and applications. How we go about doing that is different for every case, but with new devices and an empowered, technically savvy user base, we have our work cut out for us. Simply slapping a client on an iPad and sending down a published Windows app or desktop isn't enough.
As the consumerization and virtualization trends ramp up in 2013, we see companies, including Citrix Systems and VMware, dedicating astonishing resources to mobility. Citrix Receiver is becoming a platform unto itself, with built-in security, mobile application management, email, calendaring and data. VMware's Horizon Suite uses cloud-based application management and provisioning, as well as mobile virtualization and data.
The end result is a blurring of the line between consumerization and desktop virtualization, which reinforces that our jobs are about effectively delivering and managing applications and data to the places where they're needed -- be it a Windows desktop, an iPhone or a Google Chromebook.

We won't do much more with Vdi as the licensing costs do not justify the Technology.

MS is blocking virtualization in a horific manner.

This is a great post and it is particularly heartening to see you say that what IT users really care about is getting access to their data and applications when they want, where they want and with no concern for the technology that makes it possible. It's a lot like cellular services, as long as you have connectivity, whether its GSM or CDMA doesn't really matter to the average subscriber. For the last two years we have been in the market trying to convince IT heads that the real opportunity that the cloud affords is to manage end-users rather than infrastructure. However to IT organisations that have built empires around datacentres, networks and applications that is a frightening thought. Going a step further,we have even defined our pricing metric as cost of application delivery/per user/month (http://ow.ly/gCHsj). That said, end-user metrics are still hard to come by in most organizations.

Microsoft licensing affected in a negative way the VDI industry taking advantage of the user base. But there are other options that even though would require a culture change is doable. Let's make IT happen !!!

Microsoft's addition of Windows 7 to the SPLA package will change the way VARs will need to do business in the VDI space.

These Products Can Help You Pass A Drug Test
Urine tests are no joke. But Clear Choice solutions will let you have the last laugh, and stay green so you can pass your upcoming drug tests.
This article contains sponsored content.
Finding or keeping a good job isn't just about how well you perform on the job. It's about how you perform in the bathroom. If you smoke on the regular, then you know the frustrations. The irony is that today more than ever, many of the best employees happen to enjoy cannabis, and why not? Over half the country is legal for medical use and several states for recreational. But the unjust practices still in place work against pot users, as THC stays in the body for weeks or even months in regular consumers.
The irony of drugs tests
Cannabis remains the safest recreational substance used by man. However, dangerous drugs like cocaine and PCP only stay in the body for up to a week. Drug testing predominately catches harmless and productive pot smokers far more than the actual workplace dangers they supposedly help keep at bay.
For that reason, from the onset of drug testing, savvy smokers have tried to beat the tests. But gimmicky home fixes don't work on the spot. Thankfully, for urine tests, the most common method of detection, there is now a simple solution.
Know thy enemy
The most powerful tool to prevent testing positive is first knowing what kind of test is in place. If you work there already, then you should probably know from the interview or other coworkers what the testing consists of. If you are just applying, take the time to ask people who have worked there before.
There are two main types of urine tests:
GC-MS = Gas Chromatograph / Mass Spectrometer
EMIT = Enzyme Multiplied Immunoassay Test
The first is done in a lab, using a machine that separates all chemicals present and analyzing their structure to identify them. Needless to say, the process is both highly accurate and expensive. The same test is used by crime scene analysts, chemical researchers, and even scientists studying Martian soil samples.
Luckily, only very high-level jobs require this type of test, because it is virtually impossible to defeat.
But for 99% of "lab testing", the latter test is used. It is far cheaper, and results are faster and easier to read for less qualified personnel. Even better, this test can now be beaten easily.
Spike it
The EMIT test uses a chemically reactive strip to test for the presence of drugs and alcohol. It works just like a pregnancy test. The wrong color change equals guilt. But since it only tests a reaction, neutralizing the chemicals in the urine prevents the reaction.
To beat an EMIT test, Clear Choice brand Spike Urine Additive is the only sure bet. Just a small vial or two for heavy smokers mixed into the urine sample, and within minutes, it neutralizes all telltale toxins or metabolites.
It is important to note that this does not work on cups with a test strip integrated into it. Those all-in-one cups don't give time for the Spike Urine Additive to neutralize the chemicals before the strip absorbs the urine. But since those tests are also more expensive than the standard, penny-pinching companies usually don't use them.
Clear Choice brand has been the staple of beating drug testing from the very beginning. They dedicate thousands of hours of intensive laboratory testing and investigation into the latest testing techniques to constantly beat the system. Worried that SPIKE won't make the cut? Try a synthetic urine product like Clear Choice Quick Luck as an add-on precaution.
Don't risk your livelihood on bargain imitators, or sketchy home fixes. From urine tests to oral swabs, Clear Choice really is the clear winner for those wanting to enjoy the herb without a worry.

Kent disputes Sound Transit's cost estimate to build light rail yard on former landfill
City plans to hire consultant to come up with calculation
Wednesday, March 6, 2019 10:38am
City of Kent staff disputes Sound Transit's estimate of $1.3 billion to build a light rail Operations and Maintenance Facility on the former Midway Landfill, so the city will hire a consultant to determine a calculation.
The City Council's Public Works Committee approved on Feb. 25 to spend up to $100,000 to hire a engineering consultant to come up with a new estimate. The full council approved the measure Tuesday on its consent calendar, items the council considers non-controversial and that are adopted without any discussion.
"Our staff strongly believe one of the alternatives for the former landfill site is way high," City Public Works Director Tim LaPorte said to the committee. "We do not concur with the numbers that we have seen come from the consultant being utilized by Sound Transit."
Kent City Council ready to rumble with Sound TransitFeb 7, 2019
Sound Transit CEO promises 'robust public outreach' in picking light rail yard siteFeb 5, 2019
Sound Transit released the estimated costs on Feb. 19 for six sites the agency will consider for the new 30,000-square foot facility that will store and maintain up to 144 light rail vehicles. Three sites are in Kent, two on the former landfill west of Interstate 5, with estimated costs of $1.3 billion apiece, and one is at the site of the Lowe's store and Dick's Drive-In restaurant, with an estimated cost of $800 million.
"We have very early preliminary estimates for all six sites for comparative purposes," Sound Transit spokesman Scott Thompson said in a Feb. 27 email. "The costs will be refined as our evaluation process moves forward."
Two other proposed sites are in Federal Way and one in unincorporated King County near Federal Way.
HDR Engineering, based in Omaha, Neb., with offices in Seattle and 200 locations around the world, provided the cost analysis to Sound Transit. The board awarded a $10.2 million contract (with a 1 percent contingency up to $11.3 million) in December 2017 to HDR for the Tacoma Dome Link Extension, including a preferred route, location of light rail stations and finding potential sites for the Operations and Maintenance Facility.
"The city of Kent is free to hire an engineering consultant," Thompson said when asked to respond to the city's dispute about the cost estimates. "We will move forward with our scoping process and evaluation of all six sites."
Kent city leaders told Sound Transit in January that they want to agency to build the facility on the former landfill site (that closed in 1983) and not where Dick's just opened in December near South 240th Street and Pacific Highway South.
"It's unfortunate we find ourselves in the position of debating with another public agency over the need to better consider redeveloping a regional asset such as the Midway Landfill," Councilman Dennis Higgins said at the committee meeting. "We absolutely have to make sure the city's case is made fully, thoroughly and properly that the site is preferable in every way to lopping off half of the area available for transit-oriented development (near Dick's) adjacent to the Kent Des Moines light rail station.
"Why they would shoot themselves in the foot in that way is beyond me. We are going to help them come to their senses, and I would like to see this move forward very quickly."
Sound Transit plans to open a new light rail extension from SeaTac through Kent to Federal Way in 2024 and a Federal Way to Tacoma Dome extension by 2030. The project includes two light rail passenger stations in Kent, one at 30th Avenue South near Pacific Highway South and other at South 272nd Street near Interstate 5.
The council in January passed an emergency land use zoning change to ban the maintenance facility from being built on the Lowe's/Dick's property. Sound Transit CEO Peter Rogoff responded to that step that local zoning isn't the final word and that agency has gone to court over such matters in the past.
Rogoff also said besides the higher costs, the former landfill is a Superfund site, and building on that site could pose significant environmental risks – not just to neighbors – but to workers at the facility. The federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identified the landfill as contaminated by hazardous waste. The site has been cleaned up and is monitored, which Kent city officials claim make it ready for development.
City staff will move quickly to hire a consultant because Sound Transit opened the public comment period Feb. 19 about where to put the facility and closes that period April 1.
