Case Study / Music For Hotels
Founded by Nick Jones in 1995, Soho House & Co. has grown from its Greek St private members club origins into a worldwide brand synonymous with all things current and cool. We've been working with them since 2007 and provide the soundtrack for all of the venues in their ever-expanding estate.
As the group grew from its roots in Soho, it sought to offer its membership a complete lifestyle experience giving them the opportunity to exercise, work and play all within a familiar and comfortable environment.
Soho House & Co's offer has expanded to include workout spaces, Cowshed spas and street-focused casual dining in the form of their Chicken Shop and Dirty Burger restaurant concepts.
New landmark Houses have opened in the best cities across the globe, and each of these venues require a constantly honed soundtrack reflecting the sophisticated playfulness that the company has become renowned for.
With such a diverse portfolio of venues and an A-List audience made up of media professionals, celebrities and up-and-coming taste leaders, the music has to be perfect - everywhere, every day.
To keep it on track, we put ourselves in the mix, with a methodology of regular visits across the whole estate so that we can live and breathe the company, its values and those of its clientele.
In our rolling programme, we visit around fifteen venues each month, sampling the music and how it complements the mood and surroundings. Staff can tell us their experience, offer suggestions and make requests. We even get a chance to provide feedback on the excellent food & service.
Although time-consuming, the invaluable insights provided by these visits are critical to our work of managing each venue's music policy. We regularly meet with senior members of the Soho House team to review our findings and evolve the sound in line with our mutual conclusions.
From the most intimate of restaurant spaces, across gyms, bars and work-zones, Soho House & Co trust us to provide the playlists to create the perfect soundtrack for members and guests from Los Angeles to Istanbul.
Delivering that soundtrack is handled by our ever-reliable Revolution music players which, with their multi-zone capabilities, give an easy-to-manage platform that takes the hassle out of an expanding estate.
Constant research and quick response times are key to our relationship with Soho House & Co and we're delighted for the recognition that we're able to consistently deliver to the high standards such a prestigious brand requires.

Edit: As lined out in the comments to this answer, that's not an ideal solution. Check the other answers in this thread, too.
that's pretty much the best way to do it. you could put the DATEADD(d, DATEDIFF(d, 0, GETDATE()), 0) and DATEADD(d, DATEDIFF(d, 0, GETDATE()), 1) into variables and use those instead but i don't think that this will improve performance.
I'm not sure how you're defining "best" but that will work fine.
However, if this query is something you're going to run repeatedly you should get rid of the get_date() function and just stick a literal date value in there via whatever programming language you're running this in. Despite their output changing only once every 24 hours, get_date(), current_date(), etc. are non-deterministic functions, which means that your RDMS will probably invalidate the query as a candidate for storing in its query cache if it has one.

The easiest way to add an extra layer of flavour to your cuts of beef and lamb before they hit the barbecue is by using a marinade. Here's how to do it right.
Made from dried spices and herbs, the essential oils released will be absorbed by the beef and lamb.
Made up from herbs, spices and a little liquid such as oil, vinegar or a paste of garlic or ginger.
Marinating time: Unless you are going to cook within 20 minutes of preparation, always refrigerate your beef of lamb after marinating. Whole pieces like steaks or roasts can stand for 12 to 24 hours covered in the fridge, while cubes for kebabs should only need 2 or 3 hours marinating time.
Rubbing it in: Rub your dry marinade in about 20 minutes before cooking and make sure you use enough pressure to ensure even distribution.
Cooking: If using a wet marinade make sure you remove your beef or lamb from the liquid and lightly pat with absorbent paper towel before placing it on the barbecue. If you don't, your cut of beef or lamb will stew and wont' brown well.
Don't pour marinade on whilst barbequing: This makes the beef or lamb stew and causes flare-ups. To keep your cuts moist you can brush it with a little of the marinade as it cooks.
Never pour raw, leftover marinade over the cooked cuts: The marinade mixture must always be bought to boiling point and boiled for a few minutes before using to kill any harmful bacteria.
How much?: Use half a cup of marinade or two to three tablespoons of dry rub for every 500g of beef or lamb.
Sugar and salt: Be mindful of the sugar content, as marinades high in sugar will burn before the meat is cooked. Additionally, go easy on the salt too as too much will leech out the meat's juices making the meat dry.
BeefandLamb.com.au will show you how to add an extra punch to your favourite cuts by using marinades, spices and other bursts of flavour.

1180 Murray Hill Avenue (Pittsburgh, PA): Located in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh, PA, now part of the Murray Hill Avenue Historic District, 1180 Murray Hill was the home of Judge Samuel A. McClung and his family. Cather lived there at Isabelle McClung's invitation from 1901 to 1906. She returned there to visit multiple times until 1915, often writing during these visits.
Person Annotations
Scaife, Roger Livingston (1875-1951). Head of publicity at Houghton Mifflin. An 1897 graduate of Harvard University, Scaife went to work for Houghton Mifflin in 1898 as assistant to Azaria Smith, head of the publicity department. Scaife subsequently assumed Smith's position and became a shareholder of the corporation and secretary of the board of directors. In 1910, when Ferris Greenslet became editor in chief of the trade department, Scaife divided his shares with him, and the two presented themselves to authors as partners, with Scaife handling book advertising and format and Greenslet negotiating contracts and supervising editing. Scaife anonymously published three satirical novels with Houghton Mifflin, The Confessions of a Debutante (1913), Cape Codities (1920), and The Reflections of a T.B.M. (1920), and two books of children's verse under his own name. Cather corresponded primarily with Greenslet about her novels, but in his absence she dealt with Scaife during the production of My Ántonia (1918), and her dissatisfaction with decisions made on his authority contributed to her decision to transfer her publishing business to Alfred A. Knopf, Inc. In 1934 Scaife left Houghton Mifflin to become executive vice president of Little, Brown. He later became the fourth director of Harvard University Press.

À leur retour de la Première Guerre mondiale, les vétérans Afro-Américains sont victimes d'une forte discrimination. Cet article se concentre sur les vétérans afro-américains qui ont été lynchés après la Première Guerre mondiale.

Contexte

Première Guerre mondiale
La Première Guerre mondiale se termine par la signature de l'Armistice de 1918. Bien que les combats aient cessé, le potentiel de reprise de la guerre existe toujours et la paix n'est atteinte que lorsque les représentants de la République de Weimar signent le traité de Versailles, le , exactement cinq ans après l'assassinat de l'archiduc François-Ferdinand. Les États-Unis sont entrés en guerre après que celle-ci ait fait rage pendant des années. Lorsqu'ils envoient des hommes sur les fronts européens, les forces armées américaines restent séparées, avec des unités entièrement composées d'hommes noirs, d'autres entièrement constituées d'hommes blancs.

Malgré la ségrégation, de nombreux Afro-Américains se portent volontaires pour participer à l'effort de guerre des Alliés. Au moment de l'armistice avec la République de Weimar, plus de  ont rejoint l'armée pour servir dans les Forces expéditionnaires américaines (AEF) sur le front de l'Ouest.

Réactions au retour des vétérans

Le , le sénateur , du Mississippi, parle de sa peur du retour des vétérans noirs dans le Sud, car il estime que cela .
Pour le Sud américain, l'utilisation de soldats noirs, dans l'armée, est une menace, pas une vertu. , et, avertit le sénateur, .

Dans les années qui suivent la guerre, de nombreux soldats noirs sont menacés de violence s'ils sont pris en train de porter leur uniforme, et beaucoup d'autres sont même agressés physiquement. Le , jour de marché à Sylvester, en Géorgie, un vétéran noir, Daniel Mack, marche dans une rue très fréquentée et frôle un homme blanc.
L'homme blanc se sent offensé que Mack n'ait pas fait preuve du respect nécessaire et les deux hommes se battent. La police arrive sur les lieux et arrête rapidement Mack pour agression. Il est condamné à 30 jours de prison. Quelques jours après sa condamnation, le , une foule blanche s'introduit dans la prison, l'emmène dans le désert et lynche Mack. Il survit en faisant le mort. Aucune arrestation n'a jamais été effectuée.

Souvent, des violences éclatent entre les militaires en service. Lors des  () et  (fin mai-début juin 1919), les militaires afro-américains actifs sont attaqués par des bandes de Blancs ou des unités militaires blanches.

Le , une  éclate à Norfolk (Virginie), lors d'une célébration de retour au pays des vétérans afro-américains de la Première Guerre mondiale. Au moins deux personnes sont tuées et six personnes sont blessées par balle. Les autorités municipales doivent faire appel aux Marines et au personnel de la Marine pour rétablir l'ordre.

, 25 ans, est le fils du révérend T. F. Harper, un  et respectable vivant à Helena. Il a combattu dans l'armée pendant la Première Guerre mondiale et vient de rentrer d'Europe. Le , alors qu'il se promène dans les rues de Newberry, en Caroline du Sud, il est accusé d'avoir insulté une jeune fille, de 14 ans, qui le dénonce rapidement aux autorités. Harper est arrêté et jeté en prison. Bientôt, une foule blanche se rassemble et aurait lynché Harper si le shérif local ne l'avait pas caché.

Lynchages des vétérans afro-américains

Conséquences

Ces lynchages font partie de plusieurs incidents de troubles civils qui sont maintenant connus sous le nom de l'Été rouge américain. Les attaques contre les communautés noires et l'oppression des blancs se sont étendues à plus de trois douzaines de villes et de comtés. Dans la plupart des cas, les foules blanches ont attaqué les quartiers afro-américains. Dans certains cas, des groupes de la communauté noire ont résisté aux attaques, en particulier à Chicago et à Washington. La plupart des décès sont survenus dans des zones rurales, lors d'événements, comme le massacre d'Elaine, en Arkansas, où l'on estime que 100 à 240 noirs et 5 blancs ont été tués. Les autres événements majeurs de l'été rouge ont été l'émeute raciale de Chicago et celle de Washington D.C., qui ont fait respectivement 38 et 39 morts. Ces deux émeutes ont fait de nombreux autres blessés et causé des dégâts matériels considérables, atteignant des millions de dollars.

When a refrigerator breaks down, it often takes all of its contents with it. As such, hiring a Vallejo refrigerator repair company is only helpful if they can be both quick. Having served the Vallejo CA area for a number of years, we are confident that your emergency refrigerator repair needs will be met by us.
Don't think your problem is too bizarre to handle, or at least to handle affordably. We have seen it all managing different cases of refrigerator repair in Vallejo CA. Refrigerators are usually defective when they start to poorly maintain temperatures or no longer accurately read the temperature. Other issues may arise if the icemaker malfunctions or if the defrost function in the freezer compartment is not working properly. Issues with the door seal and water dispenser are also pretty common.
If you're stuck and in urgent need of a refrigerator repair in Vallejo CA, feel free to give us a call. We are a team of highly qualified appliance repair technicians with an extensive history of successful refrigerator repairs in the Vallejo CA area.
We are here to help solve your problem. From the first call, we will be quick to address the issue and its possible causes. Our technician will also assist you at your home and identify which refrigerator parts need replaced. You will be given an estimate for the cost of the replacement parts and labor. We keep it fair, charging based on the Major Appliance Service National Price Guide, and we don't bill for any deceptive expenses. The quicker you call, the quicker we can help. Suppliers of refrigerator parts in Vallejo CA are vast and offer a diverse range of replacement refrigerator parts. Whatever you need for us to complete your refrigerator repair, we'll collect it and head back to get the repair done.
If your refrigerator's ice maker stops making ice, you might avoid fixing it due to fear of high repair costs. This could be the right decision but you should first check whether you can fix it yourself easily -- sometimes it's caused by a fault in the water inlet valve. If this turns out to be the reason for your ice maker troubles, you can buy a new valve for $50 or less and replace it in about half an hour. Otherwise, you will need a professional diagnosis and then you must contemplate whether it's worth the cost to fix.

The Gaiety
January 17, 2017 by gorevan Leave a Comment
2379-81 Paisley Road West, Glasgow.
The Gaiety. 1960s.
The Gaiety was opened in 1962 by West of Scotland Taverns Ltd. Mr Joseph M Smillie was licensee. Mr Duthie, managing director of J & R Tennent Ltd, presided at the opening ceremony which was performed by Mrs J S Young, daughter of Mr J W MacFarlane, a past president of the Glasgow and District Licensed Trade Defence Association.
Mr Duthie remarked at the opening that the work began on the premises eight months ago and asked Mrs Young to perform the opening ceremony by cutting the ribbon.
Mrs Young cutting the tape at the opening ceremony watched by Mr Duthie. 1962.
The new premises were the most up-to-date in the area having a new lounge bar, main bar, off-sales and a large function suite upstairs for weddings, dinner dances, private functions and banquets.
Two years later the Gaiety was under threat of being closed down along with three other premises in the Craigton Area, by the licensing board, however the new Gaiety was saved, but the old Half Way House was not so lucky and was demolished.
Champion Darts Player, that's H Duncan, left, who won the Tennent Caledonian Breweries West Region singles title from a big entry at the Gaiety. Mr Duncan, seen with his wife and Mr R J Kirkman, West area regional manager for Tennent Caledonian Breweries., plays at the Old Spot Bar, Rutherglen. The team championship was won by Bellfield Bar, Kilmarnock. Prizes were presented by W R C Elliot, managing director, Tennents Caledonian Breweries. 1967.

A warm welcome at the Gaiety.
Things are hotting up at the old Gaiety Function Rooms at 2397 Paisley Road West in Glasgow, since Tuesday, that is, when the former brewery owned property re-opened as an Indian restaurant.
New occupants, Mr Sharma, has decided to retain the old Gaiety name, spicing up the eating habits of that particular neck of the woods, but retaining the upstairs function room for wedding receptions, dinner dances, and all other types of special occasions.
In fact, The Gaiety brings a welcome taste to the east as it is the first Indian restaurant in the area. It also has the only function rooms.
Mr Sharma is pleased with the response to the function rooms, and reports that bookings are fairly full for the next year. With a capacity of 150 and attractive surroundings, the popularity is easy to comprehend.
The restaurant has a full range of Indian and European dishes. To some people food is all-important when enjoying a night out. To others the music may be the main consideration, and to many it is the ambience which really counts.
Places that excel in all three are rare, but the Gaiety is one. They serve cuisine to satisfy the most discerning of palates in a delightful setting. There are several outstanding dishes on the menu, but Mr Sharma does not like to class them as specialities.
"We do not like to call any dish specialities," he said. "We like to think that all our dishes are a little bit special, and that our customers are a little bit special too,"
I settled on the Chicken Biryani, full of flavour with succulent pieces of chicken. Proceeded, of course, by the obligatory-for-me portion of hot and crispy Pakora.
The restaurant has no drinks licence at the moment, but it's a situation that Mr Sharma hopes to remedy in the near future.
If you're caught up in the hustle and bustle of work, or perhaps can't dine out until later in the afternoon, don't worry if you think that you will miss out on the gaiety's special economy lunch menu.
You won't, because Mr Sharma has extended the hours for this tasty bargain from 12-5 p.m. A full carry-out service is available from the Gaiety, which is open six days a week, no Sunday, until 11.30 in the evening.
So if you are looking for a night-out, or perhaps are organising a special function, pop along to pay a visit to The Gaiety. Mr Sharma will have a warm welcome waiting for you.

The American crow (Fig. 1) is one of America's best-known birds. Males and females are outwardly alike. Their large size (17 to 21 inches [43 to 53 cm] long), completely coal-black plumage, and familiar "caw caw" sound make them easy to identify. They are fairly common in areas near people, and tales of their wit and intelligence have been noted in many stories.
Three other crows occur in the continental United States, the fish crow (Corvus ossifragus), the northwestern crow (Corvus caurinus), and the Mexican crow (Corvus imparatus). Fish crows are primarily inhabitants of the eastern and southeastern coastal United States, but their range extends into the eastern edges of Oklahoma and Texas. Fish crows are somewhat smaller than American crows, but in the field they appear much alike. They can be distinguished, however, by their calls — the fish crow call is a short, nasal "ca," "car," or "ca-ha." Northwestern crows, as their name implies, occur in the northwest along the coastal strip from Washington to Alaska. They are most often seen foraging along beaches. Northwestern crows are smaller than American crows, but in Washington state these two species may hybridize. Mexican crows occur in south Texas (Brownsville area) primarily during fall and winter and are fairly small for crows. Their voice is a low froglike "gurr" or "croak" or, in some areas, a higher-pitched "creow."
Ravens are similar to crows in appearance. Two species occur in the continental United States, the common or northern raven (Corvus corax) and Chihuahuan or white-necked raven (Corvus cryptoleucus). The common raven is found from the foothills of the Rockies westward, northward to Alaska and eastward across Canada and some northern U.S. states, and locally in the Appalachian mountains. Common ravens can be distinguished from crows by their larger size, call, wedge-shaped tail, and flight pattern that commonly includes soaring or gliding. In contrast, crows have a frequent steady wing-beat with little or no gliding.
Chihuahuan ravens occur in the Southwest, including portions of western Kansas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona and rarely in south-central Nebraska. This raven, which is smaller than the common raven and somewhat larger than the American crow, can be distinguished from the crow by its call, slightly wedge-shaped tail, and flight pattern that includes gliding. The white neck feathers, which account for its other name, are seldom visible in the field.
American crows are widely distributed over much of North America. They breed from Newfoundland and Manitoba southward to Florida and Texas, and throughout the West, except in the drier southwestern portions. During fall, crows in the northern parts of their range migrate southward and generally winter south of the Canada-US border.
American crows do best in a mixture of open fields where food can be found and woodlots where there are trees for nesting and roosting. They commonly use woodlots, wooded areas along streams and rivers, farmlands, orchards, parks, and suburban areas. Winter roosting concentrations of crows occur in areas that have favorable roost sites and abundant food.
Crows are omnivorous, eating almost anything, and they readily adapt food habits to changing seasons and available food supply. They belong to a select group of birds that appear equally adept at live hunting, pirating, and scavenging. Studies show that crows consume over 600 different food items.
About one-third of the crow's annual diet consists of animal matter, including grasshoppers, beetles, beetle larvae (white grubs, wireworms), caterpillars, spiders, millipedes, dead fish, frogs, salamanders, snakes, eggs and young of birds, and carrion such as traffic-killed animals. The remainder of the crow's diet consists of vegetable or plant matter. Corn is the principal food item in this category, much of it obtained from fields after harvest. Crows also consume acorns, various wild and cultivated fruits, watermelon, wheat, sorghum, peanuts, pecans, garbage, and miscellaneous other items.
General Biology, Reproduction, and Behavior
Crows are among the most intelligent of birds. Experiments indicate that American crows can count to three or four, are good at solving puzzles, have good memories, employ a diverse and behaviorally complex range of vocalizations, and quickly learn to associate various noises and symbols with food. One report describes an American crow that dropped palm nuts (Washingtonia sp.) onto a residential street, then waited for passing automobiles to crack them. Crows are keen and wary birds. Consider the number of crows that scavenge along highways; how many have you seen hit by autos? Crows can mimic sounds made by other birds and animals and have been taught to mimic the human voice. The myth that splitting the tongue allows a crow to talk better, however, is not true and is needlessly cruel.
Crows often post a sentinel while feeding. Although studies indicate that the sentinel may be part of a family group, unrelated crows and other birds in the area likely benefit from the sentinel's presence.
Crows begin nesting in early spring (February to May, with southern nests starting earlier than northern ones) and build a nest of twigs, sticks, and coarse stems. Crow pairs appear to remain together throughout the year, at least in nonmigratory populations, and pairs or pair bonds are likely maintained even within large winter migratory flocks. The nest, which is lined with shredded bark, feathers, grass, cloth, and string, is usually built 18 to 60 feet (5 to 18 m) above ground in oaks, pines, cottonwoods, or other trees. Where there are few trees, crows may nest on the ground or on the crossbars of telephone poles. The average clutch is 4 to 6 eggs that hatch in about 18 days. Young fledge in about 30 days. Usually there is 1 brood per year, but in some southern areas there may be 2 broods. Both sexes help build the nest and feed the young, and occasionally offspring that are 1 or more years old (nest associates) help with nesting activities. The female incubates the eggs and is fed during incubation by the male and nest associates. The young leave the nest at about 5 weeks of age and forage with their parents throughout the summer. Later in the year, the family may join other groups that in turn may join still larger groups. The larger groups often migrate in late fall or winter.
Few crows in the wild live more than 4 to 6 years, but some have lived to 14 years in the wild and over 20 years in captivity. Recently, a bird bander reported a crow that had lived an incredible 29 years in the wild. Adult crows have few predators, although larger hawks and owls and occasionally canids take some. Brood losses result from a variety of factors including predation by raccoons (Procyon lotor), great-horned owls (Bubo virginianus), and other predators; starvation; and adverse weather.
One important and spectacular aspect of crow behavior is their congregation into huge flocks in fall and winter. Large flocks are the result of many small flocks gradually assembling as the season progresses, with the largest concentration occurring in late winter. The Fort Cobb area in Oklahoma, a communal roost site, holds several million crows each winter. In Nebraska, Wisconsin, and possibly other states, crows appear to be roosting more commonly in towns near people, resulting in mixed opinions on how to deal with them. These flocks roost together at night and disperse over large areas to feed during the day. Crows may commonly fly 6 to 12 miles (10 to 20 km) outward from a roost each day to feed.
Recent radio-telemetry studies indicate that roosting crows may have two distinct daily movement patterns. Some fly each day to a stable territory, called a diurnal activity center, which is maintained by four or five birds throughout the winter and apparently then used as a nesting site in spring. Although these stable groups of crows may stop at superabundant food sources such as landfills, individuals within the groups typically fly different routes and make different stops. Other crows appear to be unattached and without specific daily activity centers or stable groups. Although they use the same roosts as the activity-cen-ter crows, these unattached birds, possibly migrants, are not faithful to any specific location or territory and more regularly feed at sites such as landfills.
Ongoing changes in land-use patterns may result in associated impacts on crow populations and behavior. Historically, crow populations have benefited from agricultural development because of grains available as a food supply and because trees became established in prairie areas where agriculture and settlement suppressed natural fires. The combination of food and tree availability favored crows, and in some areas with abundant food and available roost sites, large winter roosting concentrations became established. As the current trend toward sustainable agricultural systems continues, which may include a variety of crops and rotations with nongrain crops, food availability and associated patterns of crow roosts may change.
The growing number of crows that nest and roost in urban areas also raises questions. Are urban habitats now selected because of adaptive changes in crow behavior, or are changes in rural settings making urban sites comparably more suitable? One study described two neighboring but distinct crow nesting populations — one that was urban and somewhat habituated to people and another that was rural and relatively wary of people. Will crows that are hatched in urban areas be habituated to people to such an extent that they will be more difficult than their rural counterparts to disperse from problem sites? Understanding such factors may lead to better options for managing crows in ways compatible with the needs of people.

A rickety devalue in a dried area of Amalia, N.M. Five former residents were indicted on apprehension and gun charges.
A sovereign grand jury in Albuquerque has indicted 5 residents of a farming New Mexico devalue on new terror-related charges connected to an purported swindling to conflict FBI and troops personnel.
The 5 defendants were arrested final year after authorities found 11 malnourished children vital in filth in a tiny village of Amalia, nearby a New Mexico-Colorado border. They also detected a vast cache of weapons, heading to charges of swindling and bootleg possession of firearms.
The superseding indictment announced Thursday charges Jany Leveille, 36; Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, 40; Hujrah Wahhaj, 38; Subhanah Wahhaj, 36; and Lucas Morton, 41; with a swindling to yield element support for militant attacks on sovereign officers and employees.
Attorneys for a defendants funded comment, observant that they are watchful for some-more information from a government.
"We still don't have all a papers from a supervision per this case," pronounced Amy Sirignano, who represents Morton, as quoted by a Associated Press.
Sirignano pronounced in an email sent to a AP on interest of a invulnerability that their clients would beg not guilty when they are arraigned subsequent week.
Four of a devalue residents also are charged with abduction a child who after died. The stays of a tiny child were detected three days after a initial raid. The boy, three-year-old Abdul-Ghani Wahhaj, was a son of suspect Siraj Ib Wahaj and had been reported blank from his home in Georgia given Dec 2017. The hunt for a child led a FBI to start monitoring a group and to a contingent raid.
New Mexico state child abuse charges were discharged final year when prosecutors mishandled a case.
"Federal prosecutors contend that between Dec. 2017 and Aug 2018, a group, who are possibly siblings or associated by marriage, had 'a common devise to ready for aroused attacks on government, military, educational and financial institutions,'" NPR's Vanessa Romo reported in Sep 2018.
"According to a superseding indictment, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj and Hujrah Wahhaj collected firearms and ammunition, and all of a defendants ecstatic people, firearms, and ammunition opposite state lines and assembled a training devalue where they stored firearms and ammunition. The superseding complaint serve alleges that Siraj Ibn Wahhaj and Morton assembled and confirmed a banishment operation during a devalue where they intent in firearms and tactical training for other devalue occupants, and that Leveille and Morton attempted to partisan others to their cause.

What is pDONR221?
2022-08-30 By Maria Shackelford Mixed
What is the advantage of Gateway cloning?
What is attB1 and attB2?
What is attP and attB?
What is CcdB gene?
Detailed Vector Information: pDONR221 Description: Recombinational donor/master vector with M13 F and R primer sites; kanamycin resistance; recombinational cloning. Comments: The position of features were determined for the unrecombined (empty) form of the vector, which is described in detail on the Invitrogen website.
How do I create a gateway cloning primer?
Thermo Fisher Scientific recommend that to enable efficient Gateway® cloning, primers for addition of attB sites MUST contain the following structure: Four guanine (G) residues at the 5′ end of each primer, followed by a 25 bp attB site, and followed by At least 18-25 bp of template/gene-specific sequence.
Applications and Advantages of Gateway® Cloning High cloning efficiency. Reduced false positive rate due to the presence of ccdB gene. Flexibility in moving the gene of interest into and out of many vectors. Allowing to maintain desired reading frame and orientation.
Is Gateway cloning expensive?
Gateway cloning does take more time for initial set-up, and is more expensive than traditional restriction enzyme and ligase-based cloning methods, but it saves time, and offers simpler and highly efficient cloning for down-stream applications.
ATG. Table 1 provides examples of primer pairs (attB1 and attB2) which can be used to amplify genes for specific protein expression formats. Shine-Dalgarno (E. coli ribosome binding sequence) and Kozak (eukaryotic ribosome recognition sequence) show are typical sequences.
Who invented Gateway cloning?
The Gateway cloning System, invented and commercialized by Invitrogen since the late 1990s, is a molecular biology method that enables researchers to efficiently transfer DNA-fragments between plasmids using a proprietary set of recombination sequences, the "Gateway att" sites, and two proprietary enzyme mixes, called …
The attPλ is composed of two integrase binding sites (P and P′) and the core binding site (COC′). The attBλ site comprises a central overlap region, known also as O (7 bp), which is flanked by imperfect, inverted repeats, B (7 bp), and B′ (7 bp) (Mizuuchi and Mizuuchi, 1985).
What is the ccdB gene?
The ccdB gene, located on the F sex factor plasmid of E. coli, is part of a toxin-antitoxin system encoded by the ccd operon, which is responsible for plasmid maintenance during cell division.
What does LR Clonase do?
Gateway™ LR Clonase™ II enzyme mix catalyzes the in vitro recombination between an entry clone (containing a gene of interest flanked by attL sites) and a destination vector (containing attR sites) to generate an expression clone.

Also it may reduce costs and taxes which your company pays for the own IT employees.
Software outsourcing has a lot of advantages and sometimes it could be real panacea for companies even with existing IT department. Our professional experiences shows that it's very often appears in the real world when company's IT department can't solve problem existing in the company for the long time due to low professional level or even due to inability of IT personnel to solve that problem as IT department has no tools or knowledge to do that. That kind of situation often appears in companies where IT department has just a support role and company's line of business is far from IT business. Also in this case it's very often when IT department has a deal with technologies from the last century or just with old technologies or equipment. From company's management point of view everything seems fine but it's not true – there is no effectiveness in company managing process, slowness in decision making and usage of outdated data.

Sachindra Chandra Pal  (1942 - 19 May 1961) was an Indian student who took part in the Bengali Language Movement in Silchar and was martyred on 19 May 1961. Sachindra Paul Road in Silchar is named in his memory.

Early life
Sachindra Chandra born in the village of Madanpur, under Nabiganj police station in the Habiganj sub-division of the undivided Sylhet district in the year 1942, to Gopesh Chandra Pal. He was the second son among six sons and one daughter. During the Partition, their family migrated to Silchar and settled in the town. Sachindra attended the Cachar High School in Silchar and appeared for the secondary examinations in 1961.

Martyrdom
The very next day after the matriculation exams, a satyagraha was being organized at the Tarapur railway station in Silchar demanding Bengali as the medium of education. Sachindra joined the satyagraha. The rail blockade programme passed off peacefully in the morning. However, in the afternoon at around 2-30 PM, a truck carrying arrested satyagrahis were passing by, when suddenly it was set on fire. When the satyagrahis protested, the military personnel posted at the site started firing indiscriminately killing Sachindra.

Written and Recited before the Congress by Mr. Frank L. Stanton, of Atlanta.
From the northland, the eastland, the west.
Rest here on her breast.
In your states, in your honors, your names.
And the wreath on your foreheads is fame's.
All the people of Atlanta—and, indeed, of Georgia—were, in a certain sense, represented in the invitation extended us by their Governor and city authorities. The organized bodies that joined in the invitation include in their ranks nearly all the prominent and public-spirited men of Atlanta. It was, therefore, not surprising that from the beginning a lively general interest in the Congress was manifested by the best elements of the city. The Scotch-Irish Society of Atlanta, however, took the lead in making the arrangements for our entertainment. A finer body of men than they no city in the land can muster. This Society was organized in April, 1890, during a visit which Dr. John S. Macintosh and Col. John W. Echols, representing the National Society, made to Atlanta for that purpose. During most of the time since its organization, Rev. Dr. J. N. Craig has been its President, and until his removal to Texas in the summer of 1891, Mr. W. Hugh Hunter was its Secretary. To Mr. Hunter in largest degree was due the permanent organization and first considerable accessions to the ranks of this splendid body. Of pure Scotch-Irish blood himself, and with a strong conviction of the importance of his work, Mr. Hunter threw into his efforts an energy and enthusiasm which could not fail of success. After his removal to Texas the work was taken up and has been carried on with the same gratifying progress by his successor, Mr. T. H. P. Bloodworth, the present Secretary. This Society appointed special committees of arrangements for the Congress, selecting partly from its own ranks and partly from the other organizations that joined them in the invitation. The supervision of all the arrangements was imposed upon an Executive Committee, consisting of Dr. J. N. Craig, Chairman; Mr. T. H. P. Bloodworth, Secretary; Judge W. L. Calhoun and Col. H. F. Starke. Dr. Craig is at the head of the Home Missions of the Presbyterian General Assembly, a leader in the counsels of his Church; and, what is not generally expected of a clergyman, is a man of rare executive ability. Mr. Bloodworth is a successful business man, with the characteristic energy and ability of his race.
The name of Calhoun is a household word, but not on account of the great family to which he belongs so much as because of his goodness of heart and vigor of intellect is Judge W. L. Calhoun the idol of an admiring constituency.
Col. H. F. Starke is the grandson of the revolutionary hero, John Starke, and in him do the qualities of his illustrious ancestor live again.
The names of all the committeemen are given in the pages immediately following this article, but special mention is due Capt. G. B. Forbes, Chairman of the Invitation Committee, whose address in this volume breathes the spirit of fraternity which we are striving to cultivate; to Mr. J. C. Kirkpatrick, Chairman of the Finance Committee, whose respected name and influence, as well as his personal efforts, enabled the committee to secure the necessary fund for expenses; to Col. J. R. Whitesides, Chairman of the Committee on Halls, for his untiring efforts to provide for the comfort of visitors; to Col. Lavender R. Ray, Chairman of the Committee on Speakers; and to Mr. J. L. C. Kern, Chairman of the Committee on Music.
For several months before the date fixed for our meeting these gentlemen devoted themselves to the preparations for the event. The arrangements were projected on a most generous plan and were carried to the most satisfactory completion, as will be seen by reference to the report of the Executive Committee, published in another part of this volume.
The officers of the Society began to arrive in Atlanta the first days of the week of our meeting. The members, many of them with their wives and daughters, continued to come during the entire week until a goodly crowd of representative Scotch-Irish people were present from every section of the nation. It may be said, without disparagement to the cities which have heretofore entertained us, that the arrangements for sight-seeing and social entertainment were, in many respects, superior to those of our meetings in former years. This was due, in some measure, to improvements in our programme, suggested by experience, and to the superior facilities of Atlanta as a convention city.
The Kimball House, one of the largest and best-equipped hotels in the United States, was the official headquarters. Within its capacious walls were gathered the bulk of the visitors from a distance. Situated in the very center of the city, every point of interest in and about Atlanta is easily accessible from its doors.
The principal social event of our stay was the reception tendered the Congress at the Gubernatorial Mansion by Gov. and Mrs. Northen, who are themselves the highest types of Georgia's manhood and womanhood. Within the halls of this historic mansion the brilliant throng assembled was entertained with a genuine warm-hearted Southern hospitality which will not soon be forgotten. The social attention which we received did not end here, however, but continued to the hour of our departure. The freedom of the city was tendered us by Mayor Hemphill at the beginning, and it was no empty compliment. Every one, from the Governor down, seemed delighted to contribute to our pleasure, and the result was a week of the completest enjoyment.
The exercises of the Congress were held in the Hall of Representatives of the state Capitol. This magnificent building has been completed only a few years, and is a source of just pride to Georgia. The hall in which we met is a perfect audience chamber for our purposes. Our usual Sunday service was held in the afternoon instead of at night, as heretofore. DeGive's Opera House was chosen for this meeting, because it was the largest auditorium in the city. It was crowded to its utmost capacity, and the same profound religious impression was made that characterized the similar services held at Pittsburg and Louisville in 1890 and 1891. The far-reaching and elevating influences of these services cannot be estimated. The national Society has no part in making the arrangement for these meetings. They are entirely under the control of the local committees, who have, year after year, by common consent, chosen Dr. John Hall, of New York, to deliver the sermon of the occasion. His towering form seems to suffer nothing from the ravages of time, and his great powers of mind and heart grow with the years, and draw men heavenward with greater and greater strength.
The report of our Executive Committee, in succeeding pages, reviews the progress of our Society during the year ending at Atlanta, and it would be needless repetition to set it forth again at this place. Suffice it to say that we are moving steadily on to the accomplishment of our high purposes along the lines laid down at the beginning. The rapidity and scope of our progress in the future will depend upon the continued interest and work of our individual members.
It is earnestly hoped every member of the Society will endeavor to bring into our ranks during the year a number of his friends, and that we may close the year with the best record of any in our history. Springfield, O., will be our next place of meeting. The date fixed is May 15-18, 1893. Springfield is situated in the heart of one of the most populous, fertile, and beautiful sections of the United States, and is rich in historical incidents of special interest to the Scotch-Irish race. It is forty-four miles southwest of Columbus, eighty miles northward of Cincinnati, and one hundred and thirty-five miles eastward of Indianapolis. Through its railroad systems, the Pennsylvania, the Big Four, the N. Y., P. and O., and the Ohio Southern, and their connections, it is easily accessible from all directions. Excursion rates will be had over all the railroads. Springfield has about thirty-five thousand inhabitants, largely engaged in the manufacture of agricultural implements, in which it is easily ahead of the world. Its people cannot be excelled in warmhearted hospitality, and all visitors will receive a royal welcome. Mr. George H. Frey, of that city, will be glad to furnish information relating to Springfield and the arrangements for the Congress to all who may desire it. Mr. Frey is one of the most honored citizens of Springfield, and to his influence principally is due the selection of that city as the place of meeting. The early announcement of the time and place of meeting it is hoped will enable us to secure a larger attendance at our fifth Congress than we have ever yet had.

Projecting what the T.J. Otzelberger era will look like at UNLV
65dJohn Gasaway
T.J. Otzelberger brings his recruiting prowess and high-octane offense to Vegas. Can he succeed in the desert? Ethan Miller/Getty Images

Faced with a program that has missed six consecutive NCAA tournaments, UNLV athletic director Desiree Reed-Francois selected T.J. Otzelberger as the next head coach of the Runnin' Rebels at the end of March. The 41-year-old Otzelberger arrives in Las Vegas having coached South Dakota State to two appearances in the field of 68 and a 70-33 record in three seasons.
Hiring a head coach out of a mid-major conference is, naturally, a fairly common strategy for an underperforming program. In fact, Otzelberger's predecessor in Vegas, Marvin Menzies, took the job after he had led New Mexico State to five NCAA tournaments in nine seasons.
Chasing Ghosts: 25-plus years since Tark, UNLV is still searching
Menzies, however, isn't the only available precedent. After all, three years ago, UNLV thought it had just hired Chris Beard after his one and only season at Little Rock. But Beard had second thoughts, and he ended up at Texas Tech instead.
We should also mention Craig Smith, who made a rather impressive debut last season at fellow Mountain West foe Utah State. Prior to taking the helm in Logan, Smith recorded a four-year stint at South Dakota.
Which of these career arcs will best describe Otzelberger's trajectory one, two or three years from now? Here's what we think we know in the spring of 2019 about the new coach and his new team.

Like many first-time Division I head coaches before him, Otzelberger got his shot at SDSU in 2016 based in part on a reputation he built as a strong recruiter while serving as a major-conference assistant. In Otzelberger's case, those previous stops were at Iowa State and Washington.

If you're going to be holing up in a bookstore for a while, catching up on your reading, you might as well choose one with comfortable chairs. After an exhaustive search, we have determined that the Barnes & Noble in West County Center has the most abundant collection of squashy armchairs of any bookstore in the area. Even on a Saturday, you've got a good chance of securing one for yourself, possibly even near a window so you can take advantage of the natural light. The selection of books and periodicals is what you'd expect from a Barnes & Noble, as is the café; the music isn't too annoying, and the bathrooms are clean. What more could you ask for?

WNUSP Newsletter, October 2008
SPECIAL BULLETIN - OCTOBER 2008
UN Torture Rapporteur: Forced Treatment Against Disability Convention, May Be Torture
The World Network of Users and Survivors of Psychiatry is pleased to receive the Interim Report of the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture Manfred Nowak. The report, available on the web at the url shown below, states that:
"the Special Rapporteur notes that the acceptance of involuntary treatment and involuntary confinement runs counter to the provisions of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities" and that such practices may constitute torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
http://www2.ohchr.org/english/issues/disability/torture.htm
Also at this url you will find the report of an expert seminar on Torture and Persons with Disabilities, in which WNUSP co-chair, Tina Minkowitz, was one of the speakers.
The Special Rapporteur on Torture is a human rights expert on the issue of torture, appointed by the Human Rights Council. Individuals and organizations can can send information to the Rapporteur about individual cases and systemic practices of torture and ill treatment.
See http://www2.ohchr.org/english/issues/torture/rapporteur/
The World Network of Users and Survivors of Psychiatry urges all states, international and regional human rights monitoring mechanisms, national human rights institutions and non-governmental organizations to take account of this report and ensure that involuntary treatment and involuntary confinement are stopped.
UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights: Detention Based on Disability Violates Human Rights
The UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights is including disability-based detention as a human rights violation, as part of the Dignity and Justice for Detainees week, Oct. 6 - 12.
The Information Note on Persons with Disabilities, issued for this week-long initiative, states:
"The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) states clearly that deprivation of liberty based on the existence of a disability is contrary to international human rights law, is intrinsically discriminatory, and is therefore unlawful. Such unlawfulness also extends to situations where additional grounds—such as the need for care, treatment and the safety of the person or the community—are used to justify deprivation of liberty."
The Information Note also addresses legal capacity, saying that restricting legal capacity violates human rights and that legal capacity also has implications for criminal responsibility and the insanity defense.
http://www.ohchr.org/EN/UDHR/Pages/DetaineesWeekInitiative.aspx
No. 4: Persons with Disabilities in Detention
UN staff are planning to interview WNUSP members Karl Bach Jensen and Myra Kovary for their personal stories of detention. The stories will be posted on the UN website. Organizations can participate in Dignity and Justice for Detainees Week with their own activities. For users and survivors of psychiatry, this could include rallies, blogs, speak-outs, media work, publicizing more of our stories, going inside institutions, educating people about our human rights.

UNITED NATIONS — The United Nations urgently appealed for the release and evacuation of more than 1,500 detained refugees and migrants caught in the crossfire of escalating fighting sparked by a self-styled Libyan army commander's campaign to take the capital.
The U.N. refugee agency said the refugees are believed to be trapped in detention centers where hostilities are ranging.
U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said almost 10,000 people have fled their homes in areas affected by the ongoing fighting.
Libya slid into chaos after a NATO-backed uprising that toppled and later killed longtime dictator Moammar Khadafy in 2011.
In addition to being governed by rival administrations, Libya has become a haven for armed groups, including several from neighboring countries, and a major conduit for African migrants hoping to reach Europe.
Hifter's offensive has led to clashes with rival militias that support the U.N.-backed government in Tripoli. The escalation has threatened to plunge the fractured nation deeper into chaos.

Owning your own home is a lot more than just finding a house and making payments; it involves maintenance and lots of care if you want to keep it in good condition. It is important to keep a healthy and clean running water system in your home as it allows you to have one less problem to worry about with your home. It is important to keep an eye on these things so that you can be aware of minor problems before they turn into a major problem. However, in order to do this you first must be able to detect problems and know where to look for them. Do your research and figure out how to know if there is a problem so that if it does happen to arise you will not be left in the dark before it is too late and you end up with water damage or even flooding. If you're not sure what's happening and don't have the knowledge needed to do basic maintenance, consider hiring a local plumber to do a check-up to see if anything needs repairs or replacements.
The main thing you should do to keep a well running system is to stop the problems from happening in the first place. However, no matter how well maintained your water system may be things still happen and you need to hire a plumber for help. You should always keep an eye out for possible leaky pipes or faucets. Although this may seem like a small issue it will grow over time and if not taken care of will turn into a major issue for you. Aside from that, making sure all of your pipes are not leaking will also allow you to save money on your monthly water bill. A good test to see how your pipes are doing in different areas of your house is to take note of the water pressure. If some taps have high pressure and others have too low of pressure this could be a sign of buildup in your pipes in certain areas of your home. Keeping these things in mind will give you a better chance at avoiding problems with your piping.
