During its early January meeting, the Board of Education celebrated 14 Ward Melville High School students who recently performed in the All-State Festival at the New York State School Music Association Winter Conference.
The Board and administration commended all of these students for their outstanding commitment to music and statewide recognition of their talents.
Selection to the festival is based on students' NYSSMA scores from the previous spring, as well as teacher recommendations.

Lorain County Community College's 50th Anniversary: Profile of Professor Robert Dudash
Professor Robert Dudash sees the world through a wide lens, his view having been shaped by both his family and liberal arts background.
As a Hungarian immigrant, his father labored in the Pittsburgh steel mines, solidifying the family's belief that education was the way to a better life. "My parents' hard work provided the opportunity for me to attend Oberlin College, where I was exposed to theater, literature, and film," said Dudash.

On the Planet of the Blind
By the time he was seven, Stephen Kuusisto knew he wanted to be a writer. He was drawn to the rhythm of sounds: the rhythm of words in Robert Frost's poetry, the rhythm of music in the arias of the great tenor Enrico Caruso. "My job [then] was to keep track of sounds," said Kuusisto, a native of New Hampshire who is now an assistant professor of creative writing at Ohio State.
Kuusisto also remembers bike-riding and bird-watching, activities most people take for granted. Kuusisto, however, has been legally blind since birth. In a time when physical disabilities carried a social stigma, he followed his parents' lead by denying his condition.

High Heeled and Hardboiled
The box office success of The Silence of the Lambs in 1991 should have led to a run of formula films featuring smart, determined female characters fashioned after Jodie Foster's fledgling FBI agent, Clarice Starling. But that didn't happen, leading Linda Mizejewski to wonder why.
In researching the question, Mizejewski turned her love of women's detective novels and films into her own piece of investigative work, Hardboiled and High Heeled: The Woman Detective in Popular Culture, published in 2004.

Chihuly's Imagination Takes On New Life Forms
There's a sign in the Franklin Park Conservatory's show house that reads
"One touch of nature makes the whole world kin" – Shakespeare
Perhaps the same can be said of a touch of glass art.
As Bruce Harkey, executive director of the Franklin Park Conservatory, said at a recent luncheon hosted by the Columbus Metropolitan Club, there's something magical and ancient about glass blowing. Hosted by Ann Fisher of WOSU, Harkey was joined by Columbus Museum of Art executive director, Nannette Maciejunes for a lively conversation on the Chihuly impact on Columbus.

Ohio State Carves Out Rich State History
In June 2007, we began photographing the reconstruction work on The Ohio State University's Ohio Union building. The six bas-relief sculptures, which have been covered during construction, were recently unveiled for a brief period to allow for preservation work.
While they have since been recovered and will remain so until the official reopening of the Ohio Union in March 2010, we thought you might be interested in the history behind these eight-foot-tall limestone panels, which grace the facility's 12th Avenue façade.

Tablets Trump Smartphones In Watching Video Ad To The End, Says TubeMogul
By Danni Worthington
Programmatic video advertising company TubeMogul has unveiled research on the Australian mobile programmatic market, revealing that Android tablets have the highest completion rates compared to all other consumer devices.
The research report by TubeMogul found that 83 per cent of standard pre-roll video advertisements were viewed by consumers to completion on Android tablets. This compared to 46 per cent for the Apple iPad, while Blackberry-powered tablets registered completion rates of 61 per cent.
In the mobile phone category, Windows devices achieved standard pre-roll video ad completion rates of 56 per cent, compared to 48 per cent for iPhones, and 38 per cent for Android phones. The research was carried out over a three-month period, from April 1 to June 30 of this year.
TubeMogul also revealed that more than one third of mobile video ads served by the company in Australia are now running on tablet devices, demonstrating the strong opportunity for brands to serve programmatic ads that perform strongly on the larger-screen format.
The company said the rising profile of tablets, where 38 per cent of mobile pre-roll video ad impressions are served, is in line with market estimates that 37 per cent percent of Internet users in Australia own a tablet.
Taylor Schreiner, vice president of research at TubeMogul said: "We found it interesting that the choice of tablet device plays a huge factor in completion rates and varies from country-to-country. Android came out top in Australia, Apple tablet devices performed the best in the UK, and Blackberry devices led the U.S. market. Overall, our research demonstrates that tablet devices are becoming an important force in mobile programmatic advertising."
Sam Smith, TubeMogul Australia and New Zealand managing director, added: "We also analysed tablet advertising inventory over the Queens Birthday Weekend in June and found that available in-app tablet inventory spiked upwards by 12 per cent compared to the previous weekend. Advertisers have a tremendous opportunity to engage audiences with creative tailored for tablet devices. This opportunity only increases on public holidays when consumers take time out to relax and and browse on their tablets."

Q: Redis: Get all score available for a sorted set I need to get all score available for a redis sorted set.
redis>  ZADD myzset 10 "one"

(integer) 1

redis>  ZADD myzset 20 "two"

(integer) 1

redis>  ZADD myzset 30 "three"

(integer) 1

Now I want to retrieve all score for myzset, ie. 10,20,30.

A: EDIT: Since your problem with the size of the values wasn't obvious before, I did some additional research.
There is according to the current documentation no way to get just the scores from a sorted set.
What you'll need to do to get just the scores is to simultaneously add them to a separate set and get them from there when needed.
What you should probably do first though is to try to map your problem differently into data structures. I can't tell from your question why you'd need to get the scores, but there may be other ways to structure the problem that will map better to Redis.
--
I'm not sure there is any way to get all scores without getting the keys, but ZRANGE will at least get the information you're looking for;
redis>  ZADD myzset 10 "one"
(integer) 1

redis>  ZADD myzset 20 "two"
(integer) 1

redis>  ZADD myzset 30 "three"
(integer) 1

redis> ZRANGE myzset 0 -1 WITHSCORES
["one","10","two","20","three","30"]

A: One way to address this problem is to use server-side Lua scripting.
Consider the following script:
local res = {}
local result = {}
local tmp = redis.call( 'zrange', KEYS[1], 0, -1, 'withscores' )
for i=1,#tmp,2 do
   res[tmp[i+1]]=true
end
for k,_ in pairs(res) do
   table.insert(result,k)
end
return result

You can execute it by using the EVAL command.
It uses the zrange command to extract the content of the zset (with scores), then it builds a set (represented with a table in Lua) to remove redundant scores, and finally build the reply table. So the values of the zset are never sent over the network.
This script has a flaw if the number of items in the zset is really high, because it copies the entire zset in a Lua object (so it takes memory). However, it is easy to alter it to iterate on the zset incrementally (20 items per 20 items). For instance:
local res = {}
local result = {}
local n = redis.call( 'zcard', KEYS[1] )
local i=0
while i<n do
   local tmp = redis.call( 'zrange', KEYS[1], i, i+20, 'withscores' )
   for j=1,#tmp,2 do
      res[tmp[j+1]]=true
      i = i + 1
   end
end
for k,_ in pairs(res) do
   table.insert(result,k)
end
return result

Please note I am a total newbie in Lua, so there are perhaps more elegant ways to achieve the same thing.

A: You need to pass the optional argument WITHSCORES. See documentation here:

ZREVRANGE key start stop [WITHSCORES] Return a range of members in a
  sorted set, by index, with scores ordered from high to low

A: When it comes to ruby the following command will do
redis.zrange("zset", 0, -1, :with_scores => true)
# => [["a", 32.0], ["b", 64.0]]

Binance unveils debit card to pay with Bitcoin - Decrypt
So much has happened this week! We saw a capitulation point of bitcoin before bears took over and we saw the selling pressure push Bitcoin down toward the $9000USD mark then move back up above $9100USD So far it has been a stable hold, however we may see some more action within the coming weeks.
Widespread scamming within the Twitter-sphere, Youtube and other platforms as Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies may seem like fair game. Cryptocurrencies providing big payouts for scammers without the ability for reversals of accounts. Remember if something seems too good to be true, do some research or just plain do not respond/believe it. Stay safe and careful with your funds!
On the brightside, there has been even more adoption of cryptocurrencies as rumours of Paypal utilising cryptocurrency has been confirmed as they are developing crypto capabilities. In addition to this we received exciting news at the start of this week about Binance partnering with Swipe (SXP) and offering a debit card to spend BNB, SXP, BTC and BUSD. ( I will be keeping a swift eye on BNB and Swipe as its utilisation as tokens has just increased 43 fold).
Positive news for the Bitcoin network as its hashrate reaches all time high which helps to secure the network further even though mining profits have dropped by 50% from the recent halving. If you didn't know already the last Bitcoin will be expected to be mined in 2140 with its difficulty ever increasing and each time securing the network further. Processing units will have to become faster, stronger and most importantly more cost effective to continue to entice miners for the block rewards and further renewable energy practices.
Furthermore we can see Central banks and countries discussing and developing Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC). Read more about it here https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/central-bank-digital-currency-cbdc.asp and check out some of the developments in the world above. This shows the popularity and strong nature of cryptocurrencies. As the saying goes "If you cant beat them, JOIN them".
Overall, very solid week full of adoption, animation and anticipation. Another post next week for a weekly round up! See you then but in the mean time join us at our Gravychain Discord.

WEEKEND CRYPTO NEWS RECAP: Cryptocurrencies finish weekend mixed as StellarX officially launches zero-fee decentralized cryptocurrency exchange
A September report released by the Cyber Threat Alliance indicates that cryptojacking still has room to increase 500% this year after already increasing 8,500% in 2018. The report cites increased amateur involvement in cryptojacking and a vulnerability discovered in Apple Macs as main reasons for cryptojacking still having so much room to grow in 2018. The report also highlights that a massive 84.8% of malware attacks since July 2018 have targeted =Monero (XMR), the popular privacy coin ranked 10th overall by market capitalization. The Monero community announced last week an initiative to launch a new website aimed at educating users to clean-up cryptojacking malware and ransomware.
After the Economic Times released an article citing two anonymous sources that claimed the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had created a blockchain unit, the RBI has denied the "formal creation" of any unit to research AI and blockchain technology. To investigate the Economic Times' claims, Naimish Sanghvi, founder of Coin Crunch India, submitted a formal Right to Information (RTI) request to the RBI regarding the creation of a Blockchain unit. The RBI clarified in a response to the RTI that, while the RBI has formed a unit to "study and provide guidance on the desirability and feasibility to introduce a central bank digital currency", there has been no unit formed to research AI and blockchain technology in India.
Chinese cryptocurrency and blockchain tycoon and investor, Li Xiaolai, announced in a social media post Sunday that he will be taking a hands-off approach to future blockchain projects. Xiaolai will personally no longer invest in blockchain and crypto related projects as he appears to be dissatisfied with fraudulent actors in the blockchain industry who claimed Xiaolai was part of their undertakings. Since the uprising of initial coin offerings in 2017, a number of notable crypto and blockchain investors have been frustrated with their names appearing as advisors for blockchain projects, when in fact they have no connection.
Japan's self-regulatory cryptocurrency industry group, the Japan Virtual Currency Exchange Association (JVCEA), announced that it plans to limit the amount of digital currencies that can be managed online by any Japanese crypto exchange. The measure will limit exchanges to a range of roughly 10% to 20% of customer's deposits that can be held in "hot wallets", while requiring exchanges hold the rest of customer deposits in offline "cold wallets".
Popular web browser, Opera, announced in a press release that it is partnering with blockchain advisory and financial services firm, Leger Capital, to pursue potential applications in blockchain technology. The partnership will see the two firms specifically search for application and use cases for blockchain technology while identifying growth opportunities blockchain technology can offer. Opera is also currently developing a cryptocurrency wallet to be built into its Android browser.
Ripple (XRP) completed the month of September with a massive +79% return while setting a record for the highest 24-hour volume in a cryptocurrency on popular cryptocurrency exchange, Bitfinex. During September, Ripple also briefly overtook Ethereum as the market's second largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization but has since returned to the number three position. It is important to note that Ripple's September rally was largely driven by investor speculation.
StellarX, the Stellar-based zero-fee decentralized crypto exchange, has left its beta stage and fully launched as of Friday, September 28th. StellarX is a crypto exchange that utilizes Stellar's open-source protocol to enable cryptocurrency-to-fiat transfers while offering pairings for the US Dollar, Euro, Chinese Yuan, Hong Kong Dollar, British Pound, and others. In its announcement Friday, StellarX also revealed plans to offer digitized versions of other assets, including stocks, real estate, bonds, and commodities.
The London Block Exchange announced plans to release a new stablecoin pegged to the British Pound Sterling. Dubbed LBXPeg, the stablecoin will be backed one-to-one by the British Pound Sterling by reserves of the fiat currency. The London Block Exchange calls themselves the "only London-based cryptocurrency exchange offering safeguarded UK Banking", while offering over-the-counter trading services alongside their "College of Crypto" that teaches individuals about the cryptocurrency industry.
The world's largest cryptocurrency exchange by daily volume, Binance, will launch a beta version of its decentralized exchange by early 2019. Binance CEO, Changpeng Zhao, believes decentralized exchanges are the future of crypto, and has detailed that Binance's decentralized exchange will feature non-custodial wallets to enable peer-to-peer cryptocurrency trading where users have full control over their funds.

The Daily: Report Sees UK as Crypto Leader, Jersey Adopts ICO Rules
https://preview.redd.it/ak49rer34pa11.jpg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d7c412ffa547e29c635eed1d1400e86168bde968
The United Kingdom has what it takes to become a true leader in the crypto space, according to a new report covered in today's Bitcoin in Brief. Also in The Daily, the British Crown dependency of Jersey has adopted new requirements for ICO projects to better protect participating investors, Malta now has a two-way bitcoin ATM, and Hong Kong has been promised thousands of crypto payment terminals.
Britain Set To Become Crypto Economy Leader, Report
The United Kingdom is in a good position to be a leader in the crypto economy and the implementation of blockchain technologies, according to a new report quoted by the British press. Britain has all the required resources, the authors claim, as well as industrial and governmental will to become a global hub for the technology by 2022. The analysis has been conducted by Big Innovation Centre, DAG Global and Deep Knowledge Analytics.
The gap between the traditional financial system and the crypto economy in the UK will close, DAG Global CEO Sean Kiernan believes. "The UK is a major global financial hub and in recent years has become a fintech leader as well. At the same time, it is starting to demonstrate significant potential to become a leader in blockchain technologies and the crypto economy," he said, quoted by The Guardian.
The research, carried out in coordination with the parliamentary group on blockchain, has taken into consideration the £500m (~650 million) worth of investments into UK blockchain companies made in 2017–18 to conclude that the United Kingdom has the potential to become a world leader in the digital and crypto ecosystem within the next few years. "We are still at the early stages of the blockchain industry's development and the huge impact it undoubtedly will have in Britain and globally," said Birgitte Andersen, chief executive of Big Innovation Centre.
Jersey Introduces Requirements for ICO Projects
The Financial regulator of Jersey, one of the Channel Islands, has taken measures to protect investors participating in Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs). In a guidance note released this month, the Jersey Financial Services Commission (JFSC) provides basic definitions of cryptocurrencies, digital tokens, and token sales. It recognizes that their use "has risen dramatically" but also warns about the associated risks like high levels of price volatility, loss of funds through cyber-attacks, the high number of scams and pump-and-dump schemes.
Nevertheless, the JFSC states that most ICOs are unlikely to be regulated. Instead, the Commission places some conditions on the issuers of coins under the Island's statutory instrument governing capital raising, the Control of Borrowing Order, noting for instance that a consent from the JFSC is required to establish a Jersey company. In granting such consent, regulators say, the JFSC may choose to impose certain conditions on the respective entity. Jersey-based ICO issuers are also required to be incorporated as a Jersey company and administered through a trust and company service provider licensed by the JFSC under the Financial Services Law.
The Commission classifies digital coins in two major categories — security and non-security tokens. The latter have been divided into "utility token" — "a usage right or the right to access a product or service", and "cryptocurrency token […] designed to behave like a currency, being a store of value and medium of exchange."
The document also lists a number of requirements that apply to ICO issuers and describes certain procedures and processes that should be followed in order to mitigate and manage the risks for retail investors. Companies are expected to apply anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures as well as inform investors about the risks.
In recent years, the British Crown dependency, situated off the French coast of Normandy, has attracted many startups from the crypto space. In the summer of 2015, the Government of Jersey released a consultation paper on cryptocurrencies, becoming one of the first jurisdiction in Europe to address the regulatory challenges in the fintech industry.
Malta Acquires Two-Way Crypto ATM
Malta, another crypto-friendly European destination, has reportedly acquired its first two-way automated teller machine exchanging cryptocurrency with fiat. Last week, a company called Moon Zebra launched the ATM located at the Quicklets offices, on Tower Road in Sliema. It operates Monday through Friday, 9 am — 6:30 pm.
The new BATM offers users the opportunity to buy and sell two cryptocurrencies, bitcoin (BTC) and litecoin (LTC). Moon Zebra claims this is the first device offering two-way transactions with cash. Another teller machine supporting purchases of cryptocurrency strangely disappeared last year. According to Coinatmradar, two other devices are also operational not far from Moon Zebra's ATM, but both are buy only machines. One of them offers BTC, and the other supports BTC and LTC purchases.
The launch of the new BATM comes after the island nation took another step towards becoming one of the most crypto-friendly nations in Europe. Recently, the parliament in Valletta adopted three laws designed to introduce clear regulations for the country's growing crypto industry. It's been reportedthat the largest crypto exchange by trade volume, Binance, is considering a project to launch a "decentralized bank" in Malta. The favorable business climate has attracted other large crypto businesses to the island, including the Chinese exchange Okex and the Polish Bitbay.
Hong Kong Promised 5,500 Crypto POS Terminals
The Indonesian startup Pundi X is working to build a network of 5,500 POS terminals in Hong Kong supporting payments in a number of cryptocurrencies, the South China Morning Post reported. The devices will be able to connect not only to crypto wallets but also with other traditional payment methods like Visa, MasterCard, and Apple Pay.
According to Pundi X CEO, Zac Cheah, Hong Kong is the ideal place to test the payment network. His company has ambitious plans to introduce up to 100,000 crypto POS terminals in Southeast Asia by 2021. Recently, a chain of restaurants in Hong Kong installed crypto point-of-sale devices in partnership with the Indonesian startup. Pundi X claims that in the last six months 25,000 of its terminals have been ordered by businesses in Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and Switzerland.

SAN DIEGO—Amalia Martinez, the head of Small Business Administration ("SBA") lending at the now-defunct La Jolla Bank, pleaded guilty today to conspiracy to misapply bank funds, admitting that she and other senior bank executives accepted cash bribes and kickbacks from borrowers in return for issuing hundreds of millions of dollars in loans to borrowers they knew were unqualified and unlikely to repay. The mismanagement contributed to the bank's collapse in February 2010, when the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") took over and absorbed its outstanding debt of more than $1 billion. That $1 billion tab was ultimately passed on to the taxpayers.
Beginning in 2004, Martinez and senior bank officers agreed to issue loans under favorable terms to high-volume borrowers they referred to as "Friends of the Bank," or "FOBs." They accepted fraudulent loan applications from the FOBs, and overlooked negative information about the borrowers' creditworthiness. When the FOBs defaulted on their repayment obligations, the bank executives would issue more loans, so that the borrowers could use bank funds to make payments on their existing loans. In this way, the executives covered up the bank's true poor performance, and allowed the bad loans to inflate their performance measures—which, in turn, increased their compensation from the bank.
Martinez admitted that she arranged to lend more than $55 million in SBA-backed loans as part of the conspiracy, and lost nearly $20 million in bank funds when those loans defaulted. The bank's conventional lending portfolio was much larger, resulting in hundreds of millions of dollars in loans issued as part of the conspiracy.
To date, three other defendants have been charged in this case. SBA borrower Annand Sluman pled guilty and admitted paying cash bribes to Martinez in return for several SBA loans he was issued between 2006 and 2008. By 2008, Sliuman was not qualified to borrow, and he submitted fraudulent documents as part of his loan application that made his businesses appear to be qualified. Sliuman's assistant, Laura Ortuondo, assisted in creating the fraudulent loan documents. She pled guilty to making false statements to investigators about her involvement in the case; as part of her plea, she also admitted that she destroyed evidence and instructed her then-husband to testify falsely on her behalf to help cover up the crime.
In August 2015, La Jolla Bank loan broker Jocelyn Brown was indicted for paying bribes to Martinez and others, in return for their help arranging loans for Brown's borrowers. According to the indictment, Brown kicked back a portion of her broker commission to ensure that loans she referred to the bank were approved, regardless of the soundness of the loans and their benefit to the bank. Brown was arrested on August 7, 2015, and her case is pending before United States District Judge Anthony J. Battaglia. No trial date has yet been set.
"By accepting bribes in exchange for lending out the bank's money, corrupt officials at La Jolla Bank exposed the bank to a substantial risk and, ultimately, ran the bank into the ground. Their greed cost the taxpayers, who had to step in and repay its depositors," said U.S. Attorney Laura E. Duffy. "Attacking corruption at financial institutions is one important tool we have to protect taxpayers and reduce the likelihood that our country will have to 'bail out' another bank." U.S. Attorney Duffy noted that the investigation of La Jolla Bank continues, and anyone with information is encouraged to call the Federal Bureau of Investigation at 858-320-1800.
Martinez's guilty plea was taken before U.S. Magistrate Judge Bernard G. Skomal. She is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Battaglia on November 30, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. On September 12, 2014, Judge Battaglia sentenced Laura Ortuondo to three years' probation including 12 months of home detention, and ordered her to pay a $3,000 fine. Annand Sliuman is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Battaglia on December 14, 2015, at 9:00 a.m..
Maximum Penalties: five years' imprisonment, $250,000 fine or twice the pecuniary loss or gain, three years' supervised release, $100 special assessment, restitution.
Maximum Penalties: 30 years' imprisonment, $1,000,000 fine or three times the value of the thing given, offered, or promised, five years' supervised release, $100 special assessment, restitution.
Maximum Penalties: five years' imprisonment, $250,000 fine, $100 special assessment, restitution.


Positive means you don't have the STD right?
Based on this post, I think "no boyfriend" is code for "no witnesses".
It seemed a little corny to me too. Roger: Freddie, why don't you ever think about the band?!? Freddie: I am the band! Starts throwing punches. Bass Player: Dude, check out this cool riff I just discovered.
So did his balls get deflated too?
Most sexual assault statistics are obtained though gathering information from sexual assault services (hotlines, counseling session, etc.). Counselors ask the survivors if they have reported their sexual assaults to authorities. If they haven't, they are considered "unreported". Just to clarify how these statistics came to be.
It really bothers me that she has had gang affiliations and continues to flaunt it. How can you be proud of still being involved in a group that is actively engaged in violent crime?
I have stick, so I am right.
Also, English teachers always beat the books to death during the classes. In my one class, we spent over half a year just discussing To Kill a Mockingbird. Talking about it over and over again made me hate a book that is often named the best book of all time.
Thank you for this! In 2014, over 70% of adults in the U.S. were overweight or obese. With an issue that widespread, it's hard to just blame personal choice; there are likely other factors to consider.
Maybe just treat them like people?
Oh yeah, "big pharma" is the best textbook author. I particularly love his book "Harry Potter and the Doctor's Guide to Giving Children Autism".
I agree that only blaming genetics is oversimplifying the argument. However, fat distribution and metabolic rate is inherited as well as some other diseases (hypothyroidism etc.)that can increase your risk of obesity. I'm not saying that you can't lose weight with good diet and exercise, but obesity is also a multifaceted disease influenced by genetics, psychology, environment, and social standing. It is more difficult for certain people, and we can never fully understand their circumstances.
I really hope this is a Geoke.
With the current food system, I completely agree. The best solution would be to stop being so dependent on monocultures for our food supply. More plant diversity and a strategic use of integrated pest management would reduce the rate of pest resistance and result in less pesticide applications. It's just a matter of trying to get people make the sacrifice of having to eat "ugly" produce to switch to a new, more sustainable system.
Yeah if you ever want to talk, feel free to DM me! Not too often you see someone with PI.
I was scrolling through the comments and saw this. I have CVID, another type of PI, and related a lot to your comment!
Hope you are doing better! It's pretty neat to meet someone else who has PI!
The promise of eternity began as a simple seed that implanted itself in the realms of Dr. Mitchell's ever-bustling mind. It was a curious idea, one that required intense deliberation, Dr. Mitchell presumed, much tilling and watering before its enigmatic shoots sprouted into a garden of unforeseen opportunity and beauty. At first he toyed with this notion of everlasting life like a child joyously piecing together a jigsaw puzzle. It was a fun challenge that kept his mind ticking with determination and his heart beating with the adoration only scientific inquiry could bestow.
But as he felt the pain in his chest amplify to suffocation, heard the rattle of his lungs chime with every breath, and spat out the dark red viscous fluid with each piercing cough, Dr. Mitchell didn't need to see the looming hood of the grim reaper to know his experiment with eternity was no longer a game.
Dr. Mitchell concluded his anomaly was bacterial after observing the tiny dancing specimens in his microscope. With each new treatment, their dance became more and more sinister. The numbers of the bacteria would dwindle only to inexplicably regain their strength and wreak havoc on Dr. Mitchell's fading breaths. Their tendrils resonated with the laughter of mortality.
There was no cure. He closed his eyes and could only perceive darkness - an expanse of emptiness that tore into him like a vacuum. As his gaunt body collapsed onto the lab stool, he felt more than just the bacteria feeding at his insides; he felt the entire universe compress him into the minuscule box of his existence. The timeline of his life disappeared into behind the void of space, forgotten, desolate, and irretrievable.
Suddenly, the seed in his brain grew into a raging weed that encompassed every waking thought. He flipped through every scribbled page of his notebook, analyzed every piece of data, obsessed over the idea that his life was not a closed book. Until finally, with a broken gasp of air, he connected the dots to his universal enigma.
He could live on... with a sacrifice.
Dr. Mitchell unearthed the fact that every human could reincarnate to whatever he or she killed the most.
His mind swirled with confusion. He had a chance to live again. But he didn't want the lowly life of an insect or the intellectual inferiority of a fish. He wanted to be a human - a living, feeling, thinking being that could achieve beyond limits. That was his key to success, to emerging like a phoenix from the flames.
Perhaps Dr. Mitchell was so intoxicated by the promise of life that he couldn't reason the morality of what he was about to do. Perhaps his condition weakened his mind so much that he couldn't assess the improbability of his new actions. One can only speculate as to what would drive a brilliant, rational man to such drastic measures, but whatever the reasoning, Dr. Mitchell limped from his lab one bright, sunny day.
Amid the saccharine sounds of birds chirping, the gentle laughs of children playing, and crowds of people shuffling the paths, he sat on the park bench and closed his eyes to Dr. Mitchell's dying world. And with a slight tremor, pressed the button to the explosive device in his bag.
After the aftermath, one may wonder what happened to the dozens of bodies strewn like the shells of lost souls upon the blood-stained grass. What did they become? One may never know what became of those that died on that fateful day. Perhaps they are flying above your head as birds in the sky or trotting through the forest as a deer. We know where Dr. Mitchell is, however.
Despite his calamity, he is not walking streets or speaking languages, studying in lecture halls or traveling on a bus. He is floating, a very insignificant speck in a laboratory petri dish, as the very bacteria that drove him to madness.


Pevalen™ is being tested at PerstorpPevalen™ is our solution to the PVC industry's demand for a non-phthalate plasticizer, and we're constantly putting to the test. But this time it's different!
To show our confidence in Pevalen™ we have invited a European waterproofing company to install a new roof made from material including Pevalen™ on the guards' office in Perstorp Industry Park for long-term weather testing. This will allow a direct comparison to be made between the materials over time since they will be exposed to identical weather conditions, the test will run over 4 years.
In late 2016 we were successful in getting OEKO-TEX® certification for Pevalen™ which means it is certified as a non-toxic substance for clothing applications.

Michael Ovitz Sues Insurer Over Anita Busch Settlement

Ovitz claims Fireman's Fund Insurance paid an amount well below its policy limits and forced him to personally pay the balance.
After settling a long-standing legal battle with Anita Busch just days before a trial, Michael Ovitz has a new legal fight on his hands. This one is with Fireman's Fund Insurance, which the CAA co-founder says is refusing to pay its full share of his settlement to Busch.
The journalist claimed Ovitz hired now-jailed private investigator Anthony Pellicano to intimidate her into killing a story. After more than a decade of litigation, the parties reached an undisclosed settlement — until now, it was unclear whether that included a payment to Busch.
Ovitz denies Busch's claims, but acknowledged that going to trial risked both serious financial exposure and damage to his reputation. On Thursday, Ovitz sued the insurer for breach of contract, claiming the settlement was well within his coverage.
"An insurance carrier, it has been said, is a company that will sell you an umbrella when the weather is good, and take it back when it rains," writes attorney Eric George in the complaint. "[Fireman's] sold its aptly-named 'Umbrella Policy' to plaintiff, taking in substantial premiums for the promise of $30 million in excess insurance coverage. Then, when plaintiff himself was sued and sought to invoke the insurance benefits he paid for, Fireman's refused coverage."
Ovitz says both of his primary carriers have already paid up. Meanwhile, Fireman's is resorting to "extreme and frivolous" positions to avoid paying its full share, according to the complaint. Ovitz believes the insurer was trying to tank his deal with the journalist. It's also clear from the filing that the eleventh hour settlement had actually been in the works for months.
"Fireman's' bad faith tactics to stymie settlement forced Plaintiff — literally on the Friday before the Monday "Final Settlement Conference" preceding trial — to contribute his own funds in order to achieve settlement of the underlying claims," writes George.
AIG and Chubb contributed their policy limits, but the amounts were "far from sufficient to meet Ms. Busch's settlement demands." After months of correspondence from Ovitz's lawyers, Fireman's made a contribution "well below its policy limits," according to the complaint, which is posted in full below.
Ovitz claims Fireman's took these actions to force him to trial in hopes that he'd lose and the insurer could use the adverse ruling as grounds to deny coverage. He's seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, including related costs and attorney's fees.

In most communities, you can simply stow small pieces in a reusable tote for the trip to the recycling facility.
If you are required to bundle the metals, separate aluminum from stainless steel; flatten cans as much as possible..
Kills more than 99.9% of bacteria that cause infections within 2 hours of surface contact. … Stainless steel has no inherent antimicrobial properties and can harbor deadly bacteria for days.
Although different grades have varying costs, stainless steels are generally more expensive than carbon steels. This is due mostly to the addition of a variety of alloying elements in stainless steel, including chromium, nickel, manganese, and others.
In fact, although stainless steel is an alloy that contains chromium and other elements offering a certain amount of resistance to corrosion the base material is virtually as active as ordinary carbon steel. … So good care should be taken of this oxide layer to ensure stainless steel will last a lifetime.
fifty yearsStainless steel is a clean, durable, corrosion resistant material with a design life expectancy of over fifty years.
And that's because discarded or scrap metal do not decompose easily and that poses a serious risk to people and planet. To have a sustainable tomorrow, we need to use metals that are clean, durable and recyclable today. Stainless Steel is non-degradable and 100% recyclable.
Gold is clearly the most durable, but many objects fashioned from silver, copper, bronze, iron, lead, and tin have survived for several thousand years. Dry environments, such as tombs, appear to be optimum for metal preser- vation, but some metals have survived in shipwrecks for over a thousand years.
Type 304Type 304: The best-known grade is Type 304, also known as 18/8 and 18/10 for its composition of 18% chromium and 8%/10% nickel, respectively. Type 316: The second most common austenitic stainless steel is Type 316.
Austenitic stainless steels such as 304 or 316 have high amounts of nickel and chromium. The chromium combines with the oxygen before the iron is able to which forms a chromium oxide layer. This layer is very corrosion resistant which prevents rust formation and protects the underlying metal.
Yes! Stainless steel can rust. … Generally, the higher the chromium content, the less likely the steel will rust. However, over time, rust can and will develop on stainless steel.
The simple answer is 304 contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel while 316 contains 16% chromium, 10% nickel and 2% molybdenum. The molybdenum is added to help resist corrosion to chlorides (like sea water and de-icing salts).
Some of the primary disadvantages include its, high cost, especially when considered as the initial expense. When attempting to fabricate stainless steel without using the highest technology machines and proper techniques, it can be a difficult metal to handle. This can often result in costly waste and re-work.

Alexander Wang to skip pre-fall season
Gabriella Lacombe
American designer Alexander Wang is skipping the pre-fall season, Vogue reports.

The move marks Wang's latest disruptive move within the fashion world, following the designer's decision to drop out of New York Fashion Week in January 2018. Now, the designer is forgoing pre-fall in order to hold a grand celebration for the brand's 15th anniversary in 2020.
"It was really thinking about: How can we dedicate and really focus our resources where we felt it was necessary?" Wang told Vogue.
"For us that was the 15th anniversary. A show in December felt like it maybe wasn't the best place to put our focus. I don't want to say that this is a decision that means we won't return to a fashion show again or that we don't believe in the format, but it just felt like the right moment for us to do something different."
No stranger to deviating from industry rules, Wang was one of the first designers to move to the pre-season schedule in 2017, allowing his brand to show clothes while wholesale buying budgets were high.
True to form, the designer now intends to deliver even more undisclosed surprises, with plans to stage a major consumer-facing "moment" for the second quarter of the year and broaden the brand's ethos beyond its products, Vogue reports.
"There are other exciting projects coming up that I can't necessarily announce right now…but they will definitely push the limits in terms of how we can be able to build lifestyle," Wang said, without elaborating further.
Expectations are set to be high for the mystery 2020 celebration, coming after Wang's previous and legendary blow-out bashes, including the designer's '#Wangfest' celebration held for Spring 2018.

With the increase of id badges used in companies, the id badge holder slowly became an equipment needed for business. Two causes of the use of badge holders happen to be for an id marker to look professional and protection from wear and tear. Choosing a holder for yourself may look like a basic task, but there are several activities that you need to consider before you make that purchase. First, you need to take into account the amount of protection you need for your id badge. The least expensive option you have is the fluffy plastic holders, but they normally stand against damages perfectly. They bend way too quickly and are prone to tearing and ripping. Only choose the gentle plastic holder if safeguarding your badge id is definitely not your main priority. The rigid plastic holder is the best option if you prioritize the protection of your id logo. These kinds of holders can endure more abuse and can still be cheap.

Pierwsza klasa - pięć lat z rzędu dla nas!
Po prostu nie możemy narzekać na ten hotel, obsługa, jedzenie super, pokoje przestronne i czyste, basen wygodne i mnóstwo łóżek. To wszystko sprawiło, że nasz pobyt był bardzo spokojny. Na pewno wrócimy, dobrze zrobione i dziękuję Island Hotel.
Yes there has never been any issues with this in the 5 years we have been visiting. There are no warnings in the rooms or public toilets prohibiting the flushing of tissue.
0 Votes Dear Kerry L, Thank you very much for your interest in The Island Hotel. I am glad to reassure you that we don't have anywhere heavy-smoke areas in our hotel and that it is definitely not allowed to smoke indoor anywhere in our hotel, neither inside the hotel rooms nor in the indoor and outdoor areas of the 2 evening dining restaurants. We do not have non smoking pools because the hotel grounds & gardens are very spread out and large, therefore most of our guests are normally not bothered by any habits from other guests. However, rest assured, that if we will see during this season that there is a new need for more non-smoking areas, then this will certainly be discussed and wherever possible, it will be applied. If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact us directly at theisland@theislandhotel.eu Sunny regards, The Island Hotel Team.
Hi. Does anybody know if this hotel caters for gluten free eaters?


A great car and a great value! Toyota prioritized practicality, efficiency, and style by including: front bucket seats, air conditioning, and a split folding rear seat. It features an automatic transmission, front-wheel drive, and a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder engine.


– Can the choice of color have an effect on the productivity of employees?
– What about warm color being used as a tool to enhance the comfort level of employees?
– Can certain colors promote harmony stability and yes, even camaraderie?
– Which colors will promote clear fresh thinking, creativity and planning?
– Are there any colors that can be used in executive offices and boardrooms?
Productivity can mean different things to different people. If images of workers moving at a blazing speed across the shop floor is what you have in mind, color is not going to do that for any production facility and it really shouldn't.
Creating a comfortable work space for employees by using color as a tool, is a more realistic expectation. The existing lighting situation, artificial or natural, is a strong consideration. Another factor is the current color of other elements such as carpets, window coverings or furniture. Taking into account the above as well as the proven influence of certain colors, a comfortable space can be created for employees. It is safe to assume that comfortable and happy employees will always be more productive.
In "thinking" rooms such as classrooms and meeting rooms, very strong and contrasting tones may interfere with concentration. This does not necessarily mean that only boring and bland tones and colors will work in these rooms. Calm and cool colors can be used to promote clear thinking, creativity and planning. Such Athens paint colors can be light sage greens, even clean beiges (not muddy). Clean, cool and light blues can also used thoughtfully to help the creative mind.
In executive offices and boardrooms, strong colors such as burgundy, royal blue or brown can be used to state authority, promote respect and loyalty. There are circumstances where space, size of the rooms and lighting will not allow for the strong colors. The alternative is to use these colors on highlight walls, bulkheads, columns and sometimes doors, door frames and trim.
Sometimes the workplace is also where the customer is (for example retail or hospitality). In that case, the customers comfort level has to be balanced with that of the employees. Branding considerations, marketing decisions and how it affects the buying habits of the consumer should be of course taken into account. In reality, the comfort level and interests of the customer and company staff do not have to clash, especially in today's evolving marketplace.
After a clear understanding is evident and expectations are realistic, choosing the Athens workplace colors can be a rewarding experience that most employees can participate in. The ability to have a say and influence on the colors at work can be a powerful morale booster. And of course the jokes and light-hearted suggestions about the new pink, lilac or lime-green decor will last for days to come.

Nick Diaz's 2021 UFC return '99.99999' percent likely, according to manager
No matter how frequently or infrequently fights, one question at UFC press conferences has stood the test of time: "When will Nick Diaz fight again?"
As of late, UFC president Dana White has addressed this question with doubt it will happen at all. White said in August he doesn't think Diaz is serious about a return – despite videos surfacing in September of Diaz (26-9 MMA, 7-6 UFC) hitting the gym for a mock training camp.
Diaz hasn't fought in more than five years – but if his manager's prediction is correct, that will change in 2021. In a recent interview with Fanatics View, Diaz's manager Kevin Mubenga provided insight into Diaz's return.
"That's the millions and millions of dollars question," Mubenga said. "Yeah, the guy has been training. He's been training for at least four months now straight. … Now, we're in December – we're what? Four months (or) five months in now?"
According to Mubenga, Diaz began intense training around August or September. In November, he took a break to avoid overtraining but is getting back to the grind this month.
"He took a little break last month and now we're going to pick it back up in December and go into the new year hopefully with a new deal done," Mubenga said. "(We'll) make sure the money is right and the opponent is right and we'll be able to move forward with all of this."
Jon Anik endorses Laura Sanko for UFC cageside commentary: 'All you need is your shot'
Khabib Nurmagomedov aims to make MMA an Olympic sport by 2028
When pressed to put a specific number on the likelihood fans see Diaz back in the cage in 2021, Mubenga was extraordinarily precise.
"99.99999 (percent)," Mubenga said. "We just got to get everything else right with the organization and everything. We'll be able to move forward. He's been training. People want to see (that). Well, he's been training as you can see for the last few several months. He took a little break now. Now, it's time to get back on there and just go through it. You don't want to overtrain and over-exhaust yourself, especially when you don't have a date yet. But it was good to be able to go through the regimen and go through that small camp there to kind of feel everything out (and) get back with everyone (like trainer) Cesar Gracie."
Diaz's most recent fight occurred at UFC 183 in January 2015 when he lost to Anderson Silva – in a fight that was later overturned to a no contest when Silva tested positive for drostanolone and androsterone. Diaz, for his part positive test for marijuana after the bout.
Prior to the Silva fight, Diaz lost back-to-back fights to Carlos Condit and then-UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre. The former defeat snapped an 11-fight winning streak for the former Strikeforce welterweight champion.

Biogen boosts gene therapy strategy with Harvard pact focused on inherited eye disease
By Arlene Weintraub
Mutations in more than 270 genes have been implicated in inherited eye diseases like retinitis pigmentosa. Now, Biogen has formed a research pact with Harvard's Massachusetts Eye and Ear that's aimed at developing a gene therapy to help some patients with these blinding diseases.
The gene at the center of the new agreement, PRPF31, has been linked to autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. PRPF31 mutations are believed to cause an estimated 25% of all retinitis pigmentosa cases. The partners did not disclose the financial terms of the deal.
Mutations in the PRPF31 gene cause many more cases of retinitis pigmentosa than do mutations in RPE65, the gene targeted by Spark Therapeutics' Luxturna, Harvard researchers say.
The tie-up comes eight months after a Mass Eye and Ear team published preclinical research demonstrating a gene therapy technique for repairing cells with mutated PRPF31 genes. The technique partially restored the structure and function of retinal pigment epithelium cells, the team reported in the journal Molecular Therapy Methods & Clinical Development. The research was led by Eric Pierce, M.D., Ph.D., professor at Harvard Medical School and director of the inherited retinal disorders service at Mass Eye and Ear.

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C. Line a baking tray with foil and set a wire rack inside.
Rinse the chicken and towel dry and set it aside.
Combine the rest of the ingredients in a small sauce pan and bring just to a simmer, stirring frequently. Let the sauce cool down.
Just before cooking, thickly baste each drumstick with the sauce, leaving enough sauce for a second baste later on.
Set the drumsticks on the wire rack and bake them in the middle of the oven for approximately 25 minutes. If it looks like the sauce is starting to burn, move the drumsticks to the bottom third of the oven.
After that 25 minutes, give the drumsticks a second coat of sauce and return them to cook for another 10 minutes. Baste them with the remaining sauce and then cook for another five minutes.
The sauce will be sticky and hot, so take care of your fingers and let the drumsticks rest for a few minutes before digging in.

Maxazine presents: Ray Greene (Santana, Tower of Power) at De Duif in Amsterdam
Sugar Mizzy December 5, 2022
Carlos Santana, Tower of Power, Aretha Franklin and Rick James are just a few of the Soul/R&B legends credited with Ray Greene lending his silky smooth vocals. Now that Santana has to cancel his tour, Ray Greene is coming to De Duif with his five-piece band exclusively for the Netherlands: Maxazine presents: Ray Greene!
With his unknown album 'Stay' he effortlessly mixes Soul, R&B and Jazz, with which he once again makes it clear why these greats wanted to work with him. In addition to being an excellent vocalist, Ray is also an accomplished trombonist, as he has proven by appearing alongside the Tower of Power horn section on their last two releases and on Santana's 2019 album 'Africa Speaks'.
"Ray Greene in Tower of Power as lead singer and extraordinary trombonist was a blessing and a delight. He's a talent to be reckoned with, and his million-dollar smile and irresistible personality win over people all over the world! Ray will always be a member of the ToP Family," said Emilio Castillo, bandleader of Tower of Power. Carlos Santana agrees: "Having brother Ray Greene in the band takes us all to the spirit of the church and the streets, so soulful and sincere. We love and cherish him," said Santana.
On April 22, Ray Greene will come exclusively to De Duif in Amsterdam for a one-off performance in the Netherlands.

Count it all joy. Does "all" mean all? This is a hard truth but true nonetheless: God has what Tim Keller calls a "causal relationship with suffering"—meaning that God has good reasons for permitting it. As bad as our present suffering may be, we may trust that the alternative to our suffering—given this fallen world and its sin-filled circumstances—would be even worse. Even suffering, therefore, serves God's purposes. The good news, as a consequence, is that God has the power to redeem it and use it for our good.
As I've said many times before, if God can transform the worst evil and suffering on the cross of his Son Jesus into the world's greatest good, then he certainly has the power to redeem lesser evil and suffering—even our own.
Many Christians resist this idea. But I wonder: Would they rather God have no control over our suffering—and merely watch from the sidelines of our lives with pity? In that case, God would not be the God revealed to us in Jesus.
How did you wrestle spiritually with the fact that you contracted Ebola and lived while many of your colleagues did not?
God has allowed us to survive, and there are many African brothers and sisters who are surviving Ebola. We give God glory for those who are surviving. But it's like cancer or any disease: some survive and some don't. I trust the Lord in what he's doing and how he's working. He's brought awareness to the Ebola crisis, which has helped in getting a vaccine and a serum that can maybe help, and in raising awareness for the rest of the African countries that are suffering.
Did you ever ask God why you got sick?
To what extent had you already been thinking through these theological issues simply because you had been treating Ebola for several weeks?
I always felt safe going. I trusted the Lord that we were the hands and feet of Christ. I had experienced Christ's peace way before I ever contracted Ebola. [After I got sick,] my relationship with the Lord deepened, knowing he was in control. He was in control of what was happening, and it was not a surprise to God. He has our days numbered.
