Anti-trade rhetoric is key to U.S. electoral success, study shows, but rarely translates to action
Bashing trade has always been assumed to be good politics, never more so than during this U.S. election cycle. However researchers at Georgetown University have done the math, showing exactly how anti-trade rhetoric translates into victory at the voting booth.
Both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have said they would significantly alter – or even rip up – key agreements such as the North American Free Trade Agreement and the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
That kind of rhetoric resonates with a segment of voters – low-skilled, highly paid manufacturing workers, whose jobs are at the highest risk of being outsourced to lower cost jurisdictions overseas – that have an extraordinary amount of influence when it comes to Electoral College votes.

Reinstate top regulatory cooperation official, say business groups
June 30, 2016 / Sarah Reid
Canadian and American business groups are calling on Ottawa to reinstate a senior official, arguing regulatory cooperation might be in jeopardy without him.
Sixteen business groups, including the Canadian and U.S. Chambers of Commerce and Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters, sent a letter to David MacNaughton, Canada's ambassador in Washington, D.C. last Friday. They asked for Robert Carberry, formerly assistant secretary for the Regulatory Cooperation Council secretariat at the Privy Council Office, to be put back in his role.
"More than any single individual on either side of the border, Mr. Carberry's leadership and dedication to regulatory cooperation between our countries and the many disparate agencies of our governments has been essential to the success of [this] key bilateral initiative," the letter says.

Who said August was boring? We start with an update on Brexit where a deal doesn't seem so likely and continue with escalating trade wars and what it means for financial markets.
Brexit blues: There is growing talk of a no deal Brexit. Falling off a cliff could hurt the economy. We argue about what response the Bank of England could provide to such a scenario, the other scenarios and the potential movements for the British Pound.
Trade wars: New tariffs are introduced but the US economy is doing great so stock markets are also doing great. What does it mean moving forward? Can this continue forever? We discuss the current state of affairs, look at China's reactions, discuss the Fed, and basically everything you need to know about trade and the markets.

Recognizing that the Toronto Ultimate Club (TUC) has a duty to ensure a safe sporting environment for all programs it delivers, TUC is committed to doing everything reasonable to provide a safe and secure environment for all participants in TUC activities. Juniors programs are of particular concern and it is imperative that only properly qualified individuals are engaged to lead juniors activities. Screening staff and volunteers is an important part of this commitment and a police reference check (PRC) is part of the screening process.
It is the responsibility of the Toronto Ultimate Club to ensure that all PRCs and related documents are maintained in a secure fashion and with the strictest of confidence. The failure of any TUC member to maintain such confidence will result in that member being subject to disciplinary actions, including suspension and/or dismissal from his/her position. Such measures will be at the discretion of the TUC Board of Directors.
Only selected individuals associated with TUC will be required to undergo screening through a PRC, since all volunteer positions do not pose a risk of harm to TUC or to its members. TUC will determine, as a matter of policy, which designated categories of persons will be subject to screening through a PRC.
At the present time, 'designated categories' are those classes of persons who work closely with juniors within TUC and those involved in administering the police reference check policy. As such, the designated individuals include the PRC policy contacts, the TUC juniors coordinator, juniors league convenors & coaches, and the coaches of juniors touring teams affiliated with TUC. Individuals who infrequently volunteer to coach juniors are not included within the designated categories. They are not required to undergo a PRC; however they must be supervised by an individual within the designated categories who is present at all times.
Staff and volunteers in designated categories, as such categories are defined in this policy, will be screened using PRCs.
Candidates for positions in a designated category will be made aware of this police reference check policy before they are engaged and a reference check is initiated.
PRCs will be mandatory for all staff and volunteers in designated categories. There will be no exceptions.
Failure to participate in the PRC process as outlined in this policy will result in the ineligibility of the individual for the staff or volunteer position.
TUC will not knowingly place in a designated category an individual who has a criminal conviction for a 'relevant offence', as defined in this policy. However, where the Review Committee is of the opinion that, notwithstanding a conviction for a relevant offence a person can occupy a position in a designated category without adversely affecting the safety of an athlete or TUC member, through the imposition of such terms and conditions as are deemed appropriate, the Review Committee may approve a person's participation in a designated category.
The implementation of this policy is the responsibility of the TUC Executive Director, who is appointed at the sole discretion of the TUC Board of Directors. The Board of Directors will also assign a Review Committee that possesses the requisite skills, knowledge and abilities to accurately assess PRCs and render decisions under this policy.
The Review Committee will carry out its duties, in accordance with the terms of this policy, independently of the Board of Directors.
The Review Committee is responsible for receiving and reviewing all PRCs and, based on such reviews, making decisions regarding the appropriateness of individuals filling positions in designated categories within TUC programs. In carrying out its duties, the Review Committee may consult with independent experts including lawyers, police, risk-management consultants, volunteer screening specialists or any other person.
approve an individual's participation in a designated category subject to terms and conditions as the Review Committee deems appropriate.
Where, the Review Committee denies an individual's participation in a designated category or approves an individual's participation in a designated category subject to terms and conditions, the reasons for such decision will be provided, in writing, to the designated member within 14 days of the Review Committee's decision being made. A copy of this decision will be provided to the TUC Board of Directors.
The decisions of the Review Committee will be effective upon notice being sent to the individual by regular mail to his/her last known address on record.
Where the Review Committee determines that an individual is ineligible for a staff or volunteer position, that individual may appeal and seek a review of the matter before the TUC Board of Directors at its next regularly scheduled meeting. The subsequent decision of the Board of Directors will be final and binding.
Within 31 days of this policy taking effect, all individuals in the designated categories (as specified in paragraph 2) will be required to complete a "Consent to Disclosure of Personal Information" form to initiate the police reference check process. Subsequently, all PRCs will be forwarded to the Review Committee for review.
Going forward, as vacancies in the designated categories arise and are filled, the designated candidates will be required to complete the "Consent to Disclosure of Personal Information" form at that time to initiate the police reference check process. At the appropriate time, all PRCs will be forwarded to the Review Committee.
PRCs are valid for a period of two years unless any additional relevant information with respect to any staff or volunteer comes to the attention of the TUC. Notwithstanding this, the Review Committee may request that a staff person or volunteer in a designated category undergo a police reference check. The results will be provided to the Review Committee for review and consideration. Such request will be in writing and the reasons for this request will be stated.
Each staff person and each volunteer in a designated category will complete the "Consent to Disclosure of Personal Information" form provided by TUC.
TUC will submit this form to the Toronto Police Service, along with the appropriate fees.
Upon completion of the search, the Review Committee will be given the results and it will determine whether an individual's PRC reveals a relevant offence.
If an individual's PRC does not reveal a relevant offence, the Review Committee will notify the Executive Director that the individual is eligible for the volunteer or staff position, and will return the original PRC to the TUC office for secure storage.
If an individual's PRC reveals a relevant offence, the Review Committee will render its decision and provide notice of its decision in accordance to paragraphs 9 through 11 of this policy. After providing notice, the Review Committee will forward the original PRC to the TUC office for secure storage.
Nothing in this policy will prevent an individual from re-applying for a staff or volunteer position with TUC at some point in the future, and submitting to a new police reference check.
The Review Committee will always give an individual the "benefit of the doubt" but will seriously question or prohibit, at their discretion, the eligibility of a staff or volunteer whose record is considered to directly or indirectly impact the safety and/or wellbeing of TUC members.
For the purposes of this policy, 'relevant offences' include the following offences for which pardons have not been granted: any criminal offence involving the use of a motor vehicle; any violations for trafficking or significant possession or other offence under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act; any crime of violence including assault; any criminal offence involving a minor; any sexual offence; or any other criminal or other offence in which it is reasonably expected that the prior commission of such may adversely affect the safety and wellbeing of an athlete or TUC member.
The Review Committee will not retain copies of PRCs but may retain written records of communication with the TUC office and with individuals whose PRC's indicate a relevant offence.
The TUC Executive Director will maintain and access records of individual PRCs in secure storage. All PRC data will be kept at the TUC office, in a separate file under lock and key at all times. All files will be kept for a period of 5 years and then destroyed.
Records kept by the Review Committee and the TUC office will be maintained in a confidential manner and will not be disclosed to others except as required by law or for use in a legal or disciplinary proceeding.
This policy was approved by the Board of Directors of the Toronto Ultimate Club on October 17, 2006. The Board of Directors will review this policy on an annual basis with input from the Review Committee.

Жэньшо́у () — уезд городского округа Мэйшань провинции Сычуань (КНР).

История
Во времена империи Цинь здесь существовал уезд Уян (武阳县). При империи Суй в 593 году он был переименован в Жэньшоу.

В 1950 году уезд вошёл в состав Специального района Нэйцзян (内江专区). В 1958 году уезд был передан в состав Специального района Лэшань (乐山专区). В 1968 году Специальный район Лэшань был переименован в Округ Лэшань (乐山地区). В 1985 году округ Лэшань был преобразован в городской округ Лэшань. В 1997 году шесть уездов городского округа Лэшань были выделены в отдельный Округ Мэйшань (眉山地区).

В 2000 году постановлением Госсовета КНР округ Мэйшань был преобразован в городской округ.

Административное деление
Уезд Жэньшоу делится на 29 посёлков и 31 волость.

Q: Is the conditional densities of X given Y and X given a bijective function of Y equivalent? Suppose that I know the conditional density $$ f_{X\lvert Z}(x\lvert Z=z) $$
It is the same as knowing $$ f_{X\lvert Y}(x\lvert Y = y) $$
if I assume that $Z=g(Y)$?
Let say I have two continuous random variables $X\in A$ and $Y\in B$. They could be vectors or matrices, but they have the same dimensions $\dim(A)=\dim(B)=p$. I want to know the conditional density of $X$ given $Y$, denoted $f_{X\lvert Y}(x\lvert Y = y)$. For some reason, it is more convenient for me to work with a third variable $Z\in C$, $\dim(C)=p$. I know the following relationship $Z=g(Y)$ to hold. The mapping $g:B\mapsto C$ is bijective and continuously once differentiable. Under those conditions, it seems to me that the following is always true: $$ f_{X\lvert Y}(x\lvert Y=y) = f_{X\lvert Z}(x\lvert Z = g^{-1}(y)) $$
Indeed by using the ''change of variable'', I obtain: $$ f_{X\lvert Y}(x\lvert Y=y) = \frac{f_{X,Y}(x,y)}{f_Y(y)} = \frac{f_{X,Z}(x,g^{-1}(y))\Big\lvert\det\left(\frac{\partial g^{-1}(y)}{\partial y}\right)\Big\rvert^{-1}}{f_Z(g^{-1}(y))\Big\lvert\det\left(\frac{\partial g^{-1}(y)}{\partial y}\right)\Big\rvert^{-1}} = \frac{f_{X,Z}(x,g^{-1}(y))}{f_Z(g^{-1}(y))} = f_{X\lvert Z}(x\lvert Z=g^{-1}(y)) $$
If the result is exact, it would mean that the conditional density is invariant to bijective transformation of the conditioning.
I could not find any similar result in textbook or by googling. Is this result known? Is there something wrong with the proof or the hypothesis?

Home International Indonesia ups efforts to woo Taiwan tourists
Indonesia ups efforts to woo Taiwan tourists
Indonesia's Ministry of Tourism on Monday announced ambitious plans to boost the number of inbound Taiwanese travelers in 2016.
The goal, unveiled during an industry event in Taipei, is to attract 275,000 Taiwanese visitors by the end of the year. Taiwan is already a growing source of travelers for the Southeast Asian country, with the number of Taiwanese visitors increasing by 1.4 percent last year to 203,000 people.
Visa-free entry for Taiwan nationals, announced last October, is also expected to boost tourist numbers.
The ministry's Director of Asia Pacific Promotion Vinsensius Jemadu said Taiwanese enjoy traveling to beaches, with Bali continuing to rank as the top choice among destinations.
However, Jemadu stressed this year the ministry had declared 10 major destinations that it aims to market heavily to foreign travelers. Aside from Bali, the list includes Tanjung Lesung, Tanjung Kelayang, the Thousand Islands, Mandalika, Labuan Bajo, Wakatobi and Morotai. Visitors can plan their travels based on the country's designated entry points in Bali, Jakarta and Batam.
The official said Indonesian spas, haute cuisine and shopping have also been popular among previous Taiwanese visitors.
The Indonesian government plans to kick off promotion campaigns in crowded areas in Taiwan to directly reach out to local people. The two promotions will take place in the coming August and November.
"Taiwan is very important for Indonesia, we want to be more aggressive in the Taiwan market," said Jemadu.
The head of the Indonesian Economic and Trade Office to Taipei, Arief Fadillah, said he feels that the market in Taiwan is slowing down and the portion of Taiwanese that choose to go to Indonesia continues to be small compared to other countries.
The tourism industry event organized by the Indonesian government will take place between April 11 and 13, in both Taichung and Taipei City. One of the highlights of the three-day event will be a table top business meeting, during which 150 of Taiwan's travel companies will meet with 21 Indonesian firms, according to organizers.(China Post)

Nigeria gets tough on pipeline vandalism
Published by Stephanie Roker, Editor
World Pipelines, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 11:30
Concerns of a militant revival in the Niger Delta, the Nigerian government has stated that anyone who attacks the nation's oil pipelines shall be prosecuted.
Nigerian Information Minister, Lai Mohammed, stated: "[The Nigerian] government is now fully ready to prosecute them according to the laws of the country that deal with economic saboteurs and vandalism. None of them will go free when arrested. Government will make sure that they are prosecuted and pay for the crime they committed against the nation."
He continued, explaining: "Vandals, whatever their motives are, cannot and will not be treated with kid gloves because their actions constitute a clear and present danger to the nation's economic, social and political well-being. The attack on the Forcados Export Terminal that has affected gas production by oil firms and reduced gas supply to power generating plants and the shutdown of Utorogu gas plant are totally condemnable and cannot be allowed to continue."

Military Legal Clinic
Nick's Book
Nicholas J. Murphy Foundation
MILITARY FAMILY LAW LEGAL SERVICES AND GRANTS
In Honor of a Shining Hero
Bravery. Sacrifice. Commitment.
That is what Nick Murphy showed and that is the legacy we are following in providing family law legal services for veterans and active duty members of the Armed Forces.
On November 19, 2016, Red Cross Heartland Hero Nicholas J. Murphy saved the life of fellow Navy Seaman, Breona Mackoff Williams, by pushing her out of the way of the speeding motor vehicle that took his life in a tragic accident in Pensacola, Florida. By sacrificing his own life to save hers, Nick was killed. In addition, Nick's unselfish sacrifice also saved numerous other families by six of his organs being donated successfully to five other gravely ill donor recipients. Nick's legacy of sacrifice, bravery and commitment continues to inspire others today through the work of the Nicholas J. Murphy Foundation. To see his story, play the video below.
The purpose of the Nicholas J. Murphy Foundation is to provide free and reduced rate family law legal services to veterans and active duty members of the Armed Forces in Illinois through the Nicholas J. Murphy Military Legal Clinic, to provide financial support to military families through military grants at Christmas, and to provide educational scholarships and financial support to high school and college student-athletes to advance their college and graduate school education, all in honor of our son, Nicholas James Murphy, who was killed on November 19, 2016 while serving in the United States Navy.
We are excited to announce that Nick's Foundation is growing at a rapid rate and we are going to take it to the next level. We recently hired Grant Murphy, Nick's brother and a recent graduate of Valparaiso University College of Law, as Executive Director of the Foundation to sdtart running the non-profit and to head the Nicholas J. Murphy Military Legal Clinic. Down the road, we will be hiring other full time staff (including veterans) so that we can assist more veterans and active duty members of the Armed Forces. We will be actively seeking corporate and individual donations and grants to allow Nick's Foundation to become self-sufficient financially and be able to complete more work on a full time basis. In the last 28 months, we are proud to announce we have undertaken 87 cases and completed over $475,000.00 worth of free family law legal services through the Nicholas J. Murphy Military Legal Clinic and through the efforts of the attorneys and paralegals at Murphy & Dunn.
This past week we met in Chicago with potential donors on a large scale to help get our Foundation running with a full time staff. If we can make that happen, we could represent an unlimited number of veterans and members of the military in their divorce, custody, child support and other family law related cases throughout the State of Illinois. Right now, we simply do not have the ability to expand past the huge number of cases we are doing (approximately 36 cases per year) through the Clinic on a volunteer basis. Thank you everyone for your support.

BUFFALO, NY — Researchers at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center have uncovered a new pathway by which cancer cells, such as in breast cancer, stimulate the expansion of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), a blood cell population known to interfere with the body's anti-tumor response. The findings, published online today in The Journal of Clinical Investigation, shed new light on the pathological events that fuel tumor growth and could lead to the development of new therapies to hinder it.
The MDSC is now thought to represent a key perpetrator in this scenario, in part through the secretion of substances, which do not discriminate normal from cancerous cells that promote new vessel formation.
Although much is known about how MDSCs act, little is known about how they develop. Abrams and colleagues hypothesized that tumors disrupt normal myelopoiesis, the process by which myeloid cells ordinarily develop, through inhibition of a critical myeloid-related protein called interferon regulatory factor-8 (IRF-8). Decreasing IRF-8 levels facilitated MDSC expansion; whereas, increasing IRF-8 levels reduced MDSC burden and improved tumor growth control. So, what caused IRF-8 levels to decline?
"Certain products released by cancer cells initiated the drop in IRF-8 levels, and they did so by activating either one of two other proteins, known as STAT3 or STAT5 [signal transducers and activators of transcription], which then repressed IRF-8," Abrams says.
These findings were confirmed using blood samples obtained from 30 Roswell Park breast cancer patients taken at diagnosis. Patients with lower MDSC levels had higher IRF-8 levels than patients with higher MDSC levels. In addition, patients with higher MDSC levels had a significantly poorer prognosis than patients with lower MDSC levels, in terms of progression-free and overall survival. The researchers are now designing novel approaches to modulate IRF-8 levels with the goal of improving the anti-cancer immune response.

NEW PROVIDENCE, NJ – New Providence resident Rebecca Perlman Coniglio, a licensed clinical social worker and certified school counselor, and author of children's book series, "Lily's Little Life Lessons," (lilyslittlelifelessons.com) has found a creative way to support The NJ Sharing Network.
Her most recent book, "Lily's Laces" was written specifically for The NJ Sharing Network, with all proceeds from the book benefiting the organization which saves lives through organ and tissue donation. "Lily's Laces" will be released in Spanish later this month.
Coniglio was inspired to write her books after her daughter, Lily, became very ill from complications of a virus when she was in kindergarten. "When she got better I did feel so lucky, so I reached out to the NJ Sharing Network and told them that Lily always wanted to participate in their 5K, and I wondered if they wanted me to write a story about it," she tells TAP into New Providence. She explains that The NJ Sharing Network funds the book's publications and receives all of the proceeds from the sales.
When she heard about The NJ Sharing Network's new foundation, Riley's Dance (www.rileysdance.org), she offered to write another story for them. Coniglio is currently working on the book that will benefit Riley's Dance, a foundation honoring five-year-old Riley (of Livingston, New Jersey) who saved two people's lives by donating her organs when she died.
"Writing these books is a way to give back to the community and support the very worthy cause of organ and tissue donation," said Coniglio.
Current research and a search of the literature have given Santa Fe Childcare a new way to look at the activity level of our infants and toddlers. We were pleased to welcome Eleanor Campbell, PT, to our Infant Toddler Center, on April 16th where she spoke to parents and staff about the importance of movement in the lives of our youngest children. The title of her presentation was "Babies Need to Move" and she had everyone fascinated with the information shared. She reviewed typical sensory/motor development, which is similar for all children – progress on a continuum which contributes to the many vital connections that are formed between lower and higher centers in the brain.
Infants must be allowed to move in order to gain muscle strength against gravity, to get up on hands and knees, to crawl and to eventually walk. The efficient and healthy development of the neurological and motor system is dependent on freedom of movement of infants as well as the continued encouragement of active play for the older children. In this age of car seats, infant seats, exersaucers, infant swings, and jolly jumpers, we need to critically look at whether we are providing enough opportunity to allow our children to be on the floor, to be in an environment where they can freely move and help to develop all their senses. We can prevent some of the developmental, learning and emotional challenges our children face, as well as plagiocephaly (abnormal head shape) in infants or torticollis (asymmetrical neck position) by allowing our infants to spend most of their awake time on the floor or in an environment that allows free movement. Less time in infant seats/carriers, swings or other restrictive devices which inhibit free movement is the key.
We are all well aware of our five senses and through growth and exposure these are well stimulated — but how many are aware of the proprioceptive sense and the vestibular sense? The proprioceptive sense helps us to know where our body is in space, how much force is needed for postural control against gravity and for movement. The vestibular system helps us to know where our head is positioned in space and to comprehend movement. These systems work together to develop motor control, balance and equilibrium. A baby's first playground is the floor and here is where learning about the body and the environment is gained. Full development of movement, body awareness, and balance is a gradual process that is not complete until at least 7 years of age and beyond. Allowing our older children more free outside time and less regimented classes will help to not only develop the motor and neurologic system but will help with social and emotional growth and stress release.
Here at Santa Fe, we work hard to provide such an environment, which helps to develop all the senses so important for proper neurological and motor growth.

Jeff Jarrett was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2018, but hadn't appeared in a WWE ring since 1999 before showing up at the Royal Rumble.
Jeff Jarrett is back with World Wrestling Entertainment after nearly two decades away from the company.
Jarrett, who is from Hendersonville and still resides there, has signed a deal with the WWE, according to Wrestling News and several other outlets. According to reports, he will serve mainly as a behind-the-scenes producer but also will make some in-ring appearances, as he did Sunday and Monday.
Jarrett wrestled in the WWF, as the company was known then, from 1992 until departing for rival World Championship Wrestling promotion in October 1996. In 2002, he co-founded Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, which had headquarters in Nashville, and was associated with that company until 2014.
Jarrett, who began his WWE career with a country music singer character, made his return Sunday at the Royal Rumble at Chase Field in Phoenix. He interrupted Elias, who always opens strumming a guitar and singing while sitting on a stool in the ring. Elias cut a short video when he was in town for a WWE show in December that was played at a Predators game.
Elias suggested the two sing a duet, then attacked Jarrett, smashing his guitar over Jarrett's back. The scene played out in similar fashion Monday on WWE's flagship show, "Raw," which originated from Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix.

Home House + Garden Gibson Girl
Gibson Girl
by Meridith Ingram
Luxury home furnishings designer Dana Gibson, a descendent of one of America's most celebrated artists, is every bit the modern woman.
Dana Gibson.
"It's important to have uplifting surroundings, to live among things that move you, and to celebrate being alive every day," says Gibson.
Dana Gibson's glass-front studio showroom is awash in morning light, illuminating an abundant display of her colorful work. Pillows in cheerful florals and geometrics are mounded on an antique couch; tole accessories—lamps, ginger jars, cachepots—are scattered throughout on hutches, shelves and cocktail tables of her own making. Decorative trays and other artwork hang on walls painted a soft yet vibrant shade of lavender. Baskets on the floor brim with more of her inventory: travel bags, totes, eyeglass cases and more. Here, you'll also find books of fabric and wallcoverings from the Dana Gibson for Stroheim line, her recent collaboration with the high-end home interiors company. Surrounded by these pretty things in glorious colors, it's impossible to be gloomy.
Gibson's studio on Horsepen Road in Richmond is the workspace of someone who is crazy about color but knows how to harness its energy in tasteful, controlled ways. "Color can be exciting, and powerful," she says. Her work features traditional motifs—think chinoiserie, animal prints, twigs and trellises—reimagined with her signature painterly touch. Her colors are vibrant and saturated, but handled with measured restraint.
Talent is in Gibson's genes. You'll recognize her name—she's the great-granddaughter and namesake of turn-of-the-19th-century artist and illustrator Charles Dana Gibson, best known for creating the iconic "Gibson Girl," modeled after his wife, Irene Langhorne Gibson. The Langhornes have plenty of stories of their own—Irene's sister Nancy (whose second marriage into British aristocracy made her Viscountess Astor) became the first woman to hold a seat in the British House of Commons. The Langhorne name is also carried through generations of Gibson's family. Her father, Langhorne Gibson Jr., a lifelong Virginia resident and retired investment banker, is creative in his own right—he is a born storyteller and the author of several books.
Gibson's mother's side of the family is equally talented; her mother, Casa Bacot, is an accomplished artist, and her grandmother was a sculptor. Growing up in Richmond, Gibson and her three siblings saw their mother make art a priority, respecting her off-limits studio and going to galleries with her, learning early the importance of following artistic yearnings.
Though Gibson consistently took home top art honors from St. Catherine's School, she didn't set out to become an artist after graduation. "I didn't think that art would be as practical as a college major," she says. Like her father, Gibson had a knack for telling stories, so she focused on a degree in writing, graduating from Hollins University and earning a Henry Hoyns fellowship to pursue her masters of fine art from the University of Virginia. But art was always a part of her life; she says she could be found drawing in her dorm room for hours on end.
After college, the now 50-year-old Gibson did a stint teaching literature and writing to high schoolers in Baton Rouge. "I loved teaching younger people how to express themselves, and helping them find their voices. But teaching was hard," she says. However, taking a ceramics class at Louisiana State University proved to be a pivotal experience for her. "I completely lost myself in building this big strawberry pot ... and it was all over," she laughs. To Gibson, making ceramics didn't feel like work—though she thought she could earn a living doing so. In the years that followed, she moved back home to Richmond, grew her ceramics business, met and married her husband, Mark Longenderfer, and became mother to Jack and DeWolf, now both teenagers.
Gibson's early work included vases, tureens and animal figurines—pieces that recall the feel of a gentle English countryside but with a simple, no-fuss aesthetic. Luxury retailers Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus were among her top customers. But around the time the economy floundered in 2000, Gibson also felt like it was time to do something different. "I got tired of ceramics. They can be limiting—they break easily, are harder to ship, plus you can't get intensity of color," she says. "And if I had to make one more vase .…"
So she shifted her focus, still using home accessories as her canvas but working with more practical, useful things, like pillows, lamps and bags. "I wanted to create things that were functional but pretty, too," she says. Today, she sells her wares to about 700 retailers and is involved with other product collaborations. Several years ago, a Dana Gibson-embellished slow cooker by Hamilton Beach brightened up kitchens across the country and is still selling strong. She's also working with the MT Company of High Point, North Carolina, on a line of upholstered furniture featuring her Stroheim fabrics. "I designed and chose those frames and finishes. This spring we're adding bright leathers to the mix, plus a few creative fabric applications," she explains. And you can also expect more designs from Dana Gibson for Stroheim. She's currently developing a new collection of fabric and wallcoverings that will be released in about two years.
When dreaming up new looks, sometimes capturing what she calls a "scribbly sketch" with pen and ink, paint, or even drawing on her computer, she gravitates to images that originate in nature. Her designs have clever, telling names—further indulgence of her artistic flair and love of words. Social media is another creative outlet for this business-savvy artist—Pinterest and Instagram are her virtual playgrounds for sharing peeks at her latest work and inspiration.
If Gibson's great grandmother, the original "Gibson Girl," represents the face of women at the turn of that century, Gibson herself is a model of what it means today to be a modern woman—thriving in art and business amidst a bustling family life. And she's using her talents to help people outfit their interiors with inspiring pieces: "It's important to have uplifting surroundings, to live among things that move you, and to celebrate being alive every day."

A look at the effects of nutrition during pregnancy to the growth and development of a child
Eating a poor diet not only affects development during pregnancy, but it could also have negative effects on the future health and well-being of the baby. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends that, on average, pregnant women should consume 2, to 2, calories daily, increasing their intake gradually as pregnancy progresses. A study published in May in "Biology of Reproduction" describes the negative effects of poor maternal nutrition on growth and development of the fetus. Human babies with low birth weight are more likely to develop problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure and neurological problems later in life, according to this study.
Regnault 2 Janna L. This article is an open access article distributed under the terms and conditions of the Creative Commons Attribution CC-BY license http: This article has been cited by other articles in PMC. Maternal nutrition during pregnancy, and how this impacts placental and fetal growth and metabolism, is of considerable interest to women, their partners and their health care professionals.
In developing countries, maternal undernutrition is a major factor contributing to adverse pregnancy outcomes. Conversely, with the increased prevalence of high calorie diets and resulting overweight and obesity issues in developed countries, the impact of this overnutrition situation upon pregnancy outcome is highlighted as a contributing factor for adverse metabolic outcomes in offspring later in life.
What You Eat = Your Baby's Future | Fit Pregnancy and Baby
Further, while low or excessive food intake per se is an important aspect of pregnancy development, the specific role that the placenta plays in nutrient metabolism and overall nutrient supply to the fetus in situations of undernutrion, overnutrition or poor diet composition is still poorly defined.
Both epidemiology and animal studies now highlight that undernutrition, overnutrition, and diet composition negatively impact fetoplacental growth and metabolic patterns, having adverse later life metabolic effects for the offspring.
This issue aims to highlight new research in a number of these abovementioned areas across the early life course. A great deal of data now highlights the periconceptional period as a critical period upon which insults may generate later life physiological and metabolic changes in the resulting offspring.
In the review submitted by Padhee and colleagues [ 1 ], the procedures of ARTs are examined, specifically in terms of how common procedures associated with the handling and preparation of gametes and embryos may impact later life metabolism, particularly impacting offspring cardiometabolic health.
These later life defective metabolic effects are also understood to be established during pregnancy. In surveying preconceptional women, pregnant and lactating women and women of reproductive age, Cuervo et al. Poor maternal nutritional intake after the periconceptional period during pregnancy can also negatively impact fetal genetic growth trajectory and can result in fetal growth restriction.
In addition to maternal nutrient supply, the effectiveness of the placenta in transporting nutrients and oxygen to the fetus is important in determining fetal growth.
A range of adaptations to placental development occur when the fetus is growth restricted and these are described by Zhang et al. Regardless of the cause of low birth weight, Zheng et al.
Wood-Bradley and team provide a review of the literature surrounding the potential mechanisms by which maternal nutrition focusing on malnutrition due to protein restriction, micronutrient restriction and excessive fat intake influences offspring kidney development and thereby function in later life [ 8 ].
In the same light, Blumfield et al. Furthermore, Colon-Ramos and colleagues investigated the potential association between maternal dietary patterns during pregnancy and birth outcomes in a diverse population with a historically high burden of low birth weight and other adverse birth outcomes [ 10 ].
Experiences in the perinatal period also play a key role in defining how offspring respond to stress es in postnatal life. To this point, Tsuduki and colleagues report upon the impact a high fat diet during mouse lactation, where it appears to increase the susceptibility of later life obesity induced through postnatal social stress [ 11 ].
This paper highlights the importance of understanding how an early life environment predisposes offspring to potential detrimental responses to postnatal adverse situations. In a review by Dunlop et al.
While meeting dietary guidelines is important, overall maternal health status also plays a pivotal role in determining fetal nutrient supply. In situations of maternal disease, such as infection with human immunodeficiency virus HIVthe ability of the mother to consume sufficient substrates to maintain herself and meet fetal demands is often compromised.
In situations of HIV, resting energy expenditure is increased and the disease may limit dietary intake and reduce nutrient absorption, in addition to influencing the progression of HIV disease as reported by Ramlal and colleagues [ 13 ]. Their study described typical diets of HIV-infected, pregnant Malawian women and highlighted that poor quality maternal diets should be enhanced to meet demands of this particular group of pregnant women, vulnerable to both HIV and malnutrition.
While deficiencies in nutrition during pregnancy can result in adverse offspring outcomes, once pregnant, maternal weight gain during and after pregnancy are critical issues for maternal and fetal health as well.The Effects of Poor Nutrition on a Fetus.
by FRANCINE JUHASZ Aug. 14, acid and essential fatty acids are critical during pregnancy in order to prevent neural tube defects and poor brain development, respectively. Lose Weight. Feel Great! Anorexia During Pregnancy & the Effects on the Child 5.
HEALTH ODYSSEY - PRENATAL NUTRITION
The mother's nutritional intake before, during and after pregnancy influences their child's immediate and long-term mental development and performance.
The greatest brain growth occurs between the 3 months before birth and 2 years of age. Eating a nutritious diet during pregnancy is linked to good fetal brain development, a healthy birth weight, and it reduces the risk of many birth defects. Nutritional shortages during pregnancy and in the early years of life may promote obesity by causing metabolic changes in how energy is used and stored.
13 Brain development may also play a role. Irregular eating patterns can disrupt brain networks involved in energy regulation and hunger signals. Nutrition During Pregnancy and Breast-Feeding.
A complete balanced diet to support healthy fetal growth and development is required for the nutritional demands of pregnancy.
Facts for Life - Nutrition and growth
Maternal nutrition determines birth weight outcomes as well.6 Low-protein diets are associated with . If a woman is malnourished during pregnancy or if her child is malnourished during the first two years of life, the child's physical and mental growth and development will be slowed.
This cannot be corrected when the child is older – it will affect the child for the rest of his or her life.

The Edinburgh People's Festival is an arts festival and labour festival in Edinburgh, Scotland which is intended as a celebration of indigenous talent and cultural entertainment at venues across the city, especially in the outer schemes at prices everyone can afford. It is inspired by the 1945 Labour Government which established the Edinburgh Festival to be a celebration of the arts 'for the people, by the people'.

The festival was re-established in 2002 by Colin Fox, who was later elected to parliament as a Lothian MSP in reaction to high ticket prices at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and the lack of events away from the city centre. It was initially organised by the Scottish Socialist Party, trade unions and local artists.

It carries on the tradition of the original Edinburgh People's Festival 1951–54 and acknowledges the cultural contribution made by Hamish Henderson, Ewan MacColl, Joan Littlewood, Norman Buchan, Joe Corrie and Councillor Jack Kane.

History

Since 2002 the People's Festival has presented shows in Saughton Prison, Edinburgh's Royal Infirmary, the Scottish Parliament, The Stand Comedy Club, Woodburn Miners Welfare, the BMC Club in Gorgie, Artspace in Craigmillar and the North Edinburgh Arts Centre as well as community centres in the North, South, East and West of the city.

The People's Festival's award-winning exhibition was constructed by the inmates of HMP Edinburgh and tells the story of the organisation from its origins in 1951 to the present day and was the centrepiece of last years Radical Book Fair.

The 2009 August programme included the Hamish Henderson Memorial lecture, the launch of a new book entitled 'What Robert Burns means to me' to celebrate the bards 250th anniversary, a walking tour of 'Radical Edinburgh', a concert 'Songs of the People' and a tour of Rebus' Edinburgh endorsed by Ian Rankin himself.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. Marshall baseball (21-15, 8-7 C-USA) won in extra innings over the Ohio Bobcats, 4-3, on a Tucker Linder walk-off single at the Kennedy Center on Tuesday.
The Herd got the scoring going in the third inning with a two-out rally. Erik Rodriguez drew a walk, Luke Edwards singled through the left side and Elvis Peralta, Jr. capped off the rally with a single to left to score Rodriguez and put the Herd up 1-0.
Ryan Capuano started the game for the Herd and was near perfect in his five innings of work. The freshman gave up just one hit and hit one batter while striking out four in a start which resulted in a no decision.
Ohio took the lead in the top of the sixth on a two-out two-RBI single by Aaron Levy as Marshall trailed 2-1.
The Herd quickly answered with another two-out run in the bottom of the sixth as after a Zach Inskeep double down the left-field line, Rey Pastrana brought him home with a single up the middle to tie the ballgame, 2-2.
Kyle Schaefer led off the bottom of the seventh with his first-career home run which went over the right-field fence to put Marshall up 3-2.
Ohio loaded the bases with one out after a single, a pair of fielder's choice, a pair of errors and an intentional walk. Levy was then walked as the Bobcats tied the game, 3-3. Michael Guerrero then induced an inning-ending 6-4-3 double play to close out the inning.
After both teams went down 1-2-3 in each of their halves of the ninth, Marshall and Ohio went to extra innings.
Hunter Sexton came on in relief of Guerrero to begin the 10th. Sexton issued a leadoff walk and got an out on a sac bunt with next batter. He then struck out Richardson on a dropped pitch and turned it into a strikeout them out, throw them out double play recorded as a 2-3-5 with runner being gunned down at third to end the inning.
Robert Kwiatkowski pitched a near flawless inning allowing just one hit to send it to the bottom of the 11th. Peralta began the inning with a walk and then advanced to second on a wild pitch with Linder at the plate.
Linder, who extended his hitting streak to 21 games with a single up the middle in the second, smacked another single up the middle to score Peralta for the walk-off win.
"Once I step in the box, it's locking in on the pitch," Linder said about his hitting streak.
- Linder was the lone Marshall player with multiple hits in the game.
- The combination of Garett Priestley, D'Andre Knight, Bryan Callaly, Guerrero, Sexton and Kwiatkowski threw the final 5.2 innings with giving up just two hits and one run, which was unearned.
-Inskeep reached base three times on a hit and two walks, his double was lone extra-base hit for the Herd.
- Kwiatkowski earned the first victory of his career.
Marshall travels to Lousiana Tech for a three-game series beginning on Thursday in Ruston.


Prior to during 2016, millennial reporters at various online outlets suggested that blue collar coal miners "learn to code" as the Obama Administration hatched plans to close coal mines. More than one outlet suggested as much with the New York Times even going so far as to profile one group that taught unemployed rust belt workers to code.
Well, what's good for the goose … isn't working so well for the gander. The internet trolls at 4Chan have encouraged people to tweet out "learn to code" to some of the very same millennial reporters who were suggesting blue collar workers do that.
Now? These thin-skinned reporters have gotten Twitter to view it as "abusive behavior." Maybe they should have thought of that a few years ago. Or maybe they should learn to code.

Empowering Communities to End Mass Incarceration

Thu 2:30pm: Empowering Communities to End Mass Incarceration
Posted by Netroots Nation on Thursday, August 2, 2018
The United States is the incarceration capital of the world, and Louisiana has the highest incarceration rate in the country. Louisiana's incarceration rate is nearly five times Iran's, 13 times China's and 20 times Germany's. But Louisianans are not taking this lightly. In 2017, community members—including those directly impacted by the criminal justice system—organized to advocate to reduce the number of people in prisons. People flooded the capitol and contacted their legislators demanding change. In 2018, bills passed that enfranchised a larger portion of the formerly incarcerated and sought to bring fairness to a unjust justice system. We'll talk about how others can do the same.
Jamila Johnson
Jamila Johnson is the senior supervising attorney for criminal justice reform at Southern Poverty Law Center in Louisiana where she leads both litigation and legislative efforts to end mass incarceration. Prior to coming to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Ms. Johnson spent a decade litigating disputes with government in the Pacific Northwest and served on the board as the Vice-President of the ACLU of Washington. She has a law degree from University of Washington School of Law, and a degree in Mass Communication from Seattle University.

I'm hitchhiking north today, maybe as far as Big Sur tonight, but I wanted to jot a few notes before I leave. I'm bringing a cell phone this time, so look for further notes along the way.
1. Russia and the U.S. appear to be spatting about their new spheres of influence in Syria, but in fact they are cooperating. The two countries have in common that both were founded by Vikings who subjugated the indigenous peoples where they invaded and formed a new ruling class. The Viking invasion of England in 1066 formed the English upper-class and by extension the American, but the Vikings never made it into the acronym W.A.S. P. Today Vikings would be called "white people;" in fact they were the "white people" who gave "white people" their cachet as ruler/oppressor. Thus the continuing post-war relations between the U.S. and Russia can be interpreted as a civil war betweeen Vikings, or alternatively as co-operation against those of non-Viking descent.
2. On my hitchhiking tour north I may pass through Roseburg, Oregon, where a deranged man killed ten people yesterday at a community college. I spent some time this morning probing President Obama's thoughts after I read that he had once again, as he does after each shooting, bemoaned the gun lobby influence. Back in 2012 after the Newtown shooting, before Obama was a lame duck, he made a show of urging Congress to act on gun control, but his effort was entirely verbal. No serious pressure was put on key committee members, as it was to pass Obama's Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) or his Iran Deal. Those deals were not popular, far from it, yet the President was able to muscle them through. He didn't even try with gun control. I went as deeply as I could into his thoughts and came upon what I expected: Obama could secure the TPP and Iran deals because his efforts were part of larger efforts, backed by wealthy special interests. No powerful interests backed him on gun control. One problem is that the corporate entities that form much of what we call the U.S. government do not care about the shootings, partly because the private sector is making money off them, not only from gun and ammo sales but from increased media ratings. I do not fault President Obama for not being able to overcome this reality, but I do fault him for pretending, in 2012, that he tried to. At least he's stopped pretending.
That's it for now. I'm out the door, walking up to Pearblossom Highway in the great Mojave Desert, looking for a ride! I'll be in touch!

Colour you can live with
Farrow & Ball reveals nine new shades that don't demand too much.

If it feels like we're all being asked to live inside an enormous decorative rainbow lately, that wouldn't be far off. Show after show, furniture and décor brands have asserted that colour is no longer a light suggestion. It should live. On the walls! In the kitchen floor! In the bathroom!
The British wallpaper and paint maker, Farrow & Ball has just released nine new colours (unveiled at a special installation at the London Design Festival) that speak to the "right now." New paint might not stir everyone, but Farrow & Ball doesn't make a regular habit of introducing hues. The company refreshes its palette of 132 colours but once every few years, and archives others in the collection.
This range has its share of neutrals—Jitney No. 293 is a sandy offering named for the bus that takes New Yorkers to the Hamptons, and Shadow House White No. 291, a soft white described as "reminiscent of the colour used in school houses." There are also richer offerings like a moody, Georgian-influenced Paean Black No. 294, a strong hue that has a red base; De Nimes No. 299, an elegant blue, and the Japanese leaf-inspired Bancha No. 298, which is a hardy take on F&B's beloved Olive. There is also pink—a colour that has been (regrettably) appropriated for an entire generational of Millennials. The brand has two options: Rangwali No. 296, a vibrant shade that summons the bright pink powder found during India's Holi festival, and Sulking Room Pink No. 295 which has a more languid, muted tone.
We are so accustomed to reacting to colour—on our bodies and on the walls—that it's easy to overlook the very complex work of developing it. "Creating new colours is a meticulous and timely process—from the initial research to launching the new colours is around 18 months—ensuring that each new colour really earns its place on our colour card," says Charlotte Cosby, head of creative at Farrow & Ball. "When developing new colours, we speak to our global colour consultants and showrooms and analyse our existing colour card to identify any gaps in the palette. We also look at long term decorating, social and economic trends to help us choose the right colours to add to our edited collection."
Thinking of pigments as part of a broader cultural exercise makes sense considering the role fashion plays in our lives. The Pantone Institute has been christening a Colour of the Year for nearly two decades, helping track how we feel and articulating in tones sometimes before we know it. Colour at home will always feel more personal. Living with it, or the absence of it, is an exclusively personal choice. Designers agree that painting is the easiest and fastest way to give a space an entirely new character, or in some cases, a modest one. "Updating an existing scheme by painting an alcove, piece of furniture, one wall or trim can be a great way to introduce a stronger colour without feeling overwhelmed," says Crosby.
"If you are confident with colour, Preference Red is our 'colour of the moment', it's our richest, deepest red and looks amazing teamed with gold, Paean Black or Hague Blue. For a super luxe look use Preference Red on the walls and ceiling, Paean on the trim with accents of gold. Rangwali is our friendliest colour, welcoming, vibrant and adventurous. My favourite uses for this hue are the front door, hallways, exteriors, and the underside of free-standing baths. It looks spectacular with Vardo, Downpipe and All White!"
