NEW YORK, Feb. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Kallyope Inc., a leading biotechnology company focused on identifying therapeutic opportunities involving the gut-brain axis, today announced a $66 million Series B financing and significant progress in building an industry-leading research program.
All investors from the Series A financing participated in the Series B, including Lux Capital, The Column Group, Polaris Partners, Illumina Ventures, and Alexandria Venture Investments. New investors Euclidean Capital and Two Sigma Ventures also joined the syndicate.
"We have had two highly productive years since launch, assembling a world-class team, establishing our state-of-the-art technology platform, and initiating several drug discovery programs," said Kallyope CEO Nancy Thornberry. "The Series B financing gives us significant runway to continue to advance our innovative research and unlock the broad potential of the gut-brain axis. We are now poised to become the pre-eminent player in this promising, emerging area of biology."
The gut-brain axis, the bi-directional communication between the gut and the brain, is composed of hormonal and neural circuits. This system modulates important aspects of physiology and behavior, and defects in gut-brain circuits have been linked to metabolic and gastrointestinal diseases as well as CNS disorders including mood, cognition, autism, and Parkinson's Disease.
"Kallyope has developed a unique platform that includes single-cell sequencing, computational biology, optogenetics, chemogenetics, and circuit mapping technologies," said Kallyope Founder and Board member Tom Maniatis, Ph.D. "By integrating these complementary technologies, Kallyope is building a comprehensive map of gut-brain circuits, which provides fundamentally new insights into gut and gut-brain biology."
The platform enables a rational, well-informed approach to targeting gut-brain circuits involved in diseases of high unmet need. Based on the novel biology that has been discovered to date, Kallyope has initiated several drug discovery programs for modulating gut-brain circuits with gut-restricted molecules. Initially, the company will focus on metabolic and neurological disorders, but the company's technology platform and map of gut-brain circuits is applicable to virtually every disease area involving the gut and gut-brain axis.
To date, Kallyope has built a team of more than 40 researchers comprising both academic scientists who are experts in neuroscience, gut biology, and the company's core technology areas, and individuals with deep drug discovery expertise and a proven ability to translate science to products. The company expects to grow to nearly 60 employees by the end of 2018.
Kallyope, headquartered at the Alexandria Center® for Life Science in New York City, is a platform biotechnology company dedicated to unlocking the therapeutic potential of the gut-brain axis. A cross-disciplinary team integrates cutting-edge technologies in sequencing, bioinformatics, neural imaging, cellular and molecular biology, and human genetics to provide an understanding of gut-brain biology that will lead to transformational therapeutics to improve human health. The company's founders are Charles Zuker, Ph.D., Lasker Award winner Tom Maniatis, Ph.D., and Nobel laureate Richard Axel, M.D. For more information visit www.kallyope.com.


One of the recent focuses in Cloud Computing networks is Software Defined Clouds (SDC), where the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) technology is combined with the traditional Cloud network. SDC is aimed to create an effective Cloud environment by extending the virtualization concept to all resources. In that, the control plane is decoupled from the data plane in a network device and controlled by the centralized controller using the OpenFlow Protocol (OFP). As the centralized controller performs all control functions in a network, it requires strong security. Already, Cloud Computing faces many security challenges. Most vulnerable attacks in SDC is Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed DoS (DDoS) attacks. To overcome the DoS attacks, we propose a distributed Firewall with Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) for SDC. The proposed distributed security mechanism is investigated for two DoS attacks, ICMP and SYN flooding attacks for different network scenarios. From the simulation results and discussion, we showed that the distributed Firewall with IPS security detects and prevents the DoS attack effectively.

On the first day (23rd), there will be a reception dinner at the Italian restaurant "Comesta" which is located at the first floor of the Mitsui Garden Hotel. All the participants are invited to the reception.
Participants are asked to pay for the drinks which cannot be paid using public funding by Japanese law.
Drinks cost 2,000 JPY per person (free drinks). Participants are asked to prepare it (in cash) at the registration.
After 2.5 days of hackathon, in the afternoon of the third day (25th), we will have a break and go for an excursion then dinner.
The local organizers are excited to offer a rare chance to visit a traditional Japanese sake brewery (or winery, as sake is a kind of rice wine). Then, we will go to a soba noodle restaurant which has its home at a traditional old fork house.
A bus will be arranged to bring us to the places and back to the hotel.
Food and drinks at the restaurant will be costed 3,500 JPY per each. Participants are asked to prepare the price at the registration.
Please let us know (admin@linkedannotation.org) in advance, if you are a vegetarian or have a food allergy.
Right next to the venue (and the hotel) is there a giant shopping mall, Lala port, where you can find a wide variation of cuisine.
In front of the hotel, there is also a convenience store which is open for 24 hours.
As you may expect, you can find almost every kind of shops in the shopping mall. There is also a big electronics store.
At least around the venue and the hotel, you can always find free wifi.
At least around the venue and the hotel, you can pay by credit card for almost everything. I recommend you to check if your credit card is usable in Japan, rather than preparing much Japanese Yen.
Also, you can easily find ATMs in the shopping mall.

National COVID-19: 306 new cases registered as one person dies
Chris Fearne committed to replace current scheme to sell Maltese passports
Labour leadership contender says new scheme should replace IIP in full agreement with European Commission
17 December 2019, 10:12am
by James Debono
Deputy PM Chris Fearne
Labour leadership contender and deputy Prime Minister Chris Fearne has committed a future Labour government with him as PM to scrap the Individual Investor Programme and replace it with a new scheme negotiated with Brussels which "does not harm Malta's image abroad."
In an interview to the Times of Malta, the aspirant Labour leader described the controversial sale of citizenship as a "good source of income" both for Malta and the practitioners working in the field.
But Fearne is now committed to start a new scheme "which is different from the one in place together" following discussions with European institutions – including the European Parliament – and local practitioners.
The IIP, alongside similar ones in other EU members states like Cyprus, had been repeatedly condemned by the European Parliament.
Although the European Commission had in 2016 'endorsed' the scheme following the introduction of a 12-month residency clause, it has increasingly expressed concern on the inherent risks, in particular as regards security, money laundering, tax evasion and corruption related to golden passport schemes.
The reform will take place once the current scheme reaches its cap, something which expected to happen within the first 100 days of his premiership.
Under Muscat, the government had taken no commitment on what it would do with the scheme after the cap is reached. But in a clear indication that the government's intention was to retain the scheme, in January 2018 the government commenced a public consultation through an online poll with the first question being whether the number of applications under the IIP should be capped at law or left at the open discretion of the government. The main objective of the updating and revision of the Programme was "to ensure it remains at the forefront in reputation, attractiveness and rigorousness".
The current programme is capped at some 1,800 main applicants: that does not include dependants.
Fearne's misgivings on the IIP is in synch with the views of the majority of respondents in opinion polls. A recent MaltaToday survey found that 56.3% disagree with the Individual Investor Programme.
The IIP was recently at the centre of controversy after a French TV sting recorded one of the passport agents boasting about his close connections with people in power and how authorities can close an eye. The agent's licence has been suspended and all his applications, past and present, are being probed.
Citizenship Parliamentary Secretary Julia Farrugia had defended the scheme saying that this resulted in €544 million being poured into the National Development and Social Fund (NDSF), a good portion of which is used for social causes to help the vulnerable.
Applicants for a Maltese passport under the IIP should have at least a 12-month residency status in Malta although this has never been understood as implying physical presence on the island. The other requirements are the purchase (minimum €350,000) or lease (minimum €16,000 per annum) of property; a contribution of €650,000 per main applicant plus a contribution in respect of the spouse (€25,000) or other dependants (€25,000 – son/daughters under 18, €50,000 – unmarried sons/daughters between 18 and 26 and parents or parents-in-law above 55) accompanying the main applicant; and the purchase of Malta Government Bonds or locally listed securities and equities amounting to not less than €150,000.
The contract with Henley & Partners, the concessionaire of Malta's IIP's passport sale scheme, obliges the Maltese government to send, whenever requested, appropriate high-ranking government representatives, or other senior government officials, to speak at the events and represent the Programme and the government. The Prime Minister himself had participated in these road shows.

The Debate Over the Philippines
Dec 10, 2020 in Analysis
This writing features the debate about annexation of Philippines Island by the US. First is Emilio Aguinaldos Case against the United States, 1899. It is a review by an anonymous representative of Arguinaldo and edited by N. A. R. The document ridicules the US government for double standards in its administration of domestic affairs in comparison to its administration in the Philippines Islands. The second document features the interview between the Christian Advocate and President William McKinley, 1903, by Arthur J. Lacy who reveals the agenda that the US President, had concerning annexation of the Philippines Islands and the considerations for that. Thirdly are the speeches made by Senator Hoar and Platt on 9th January, 1899 during the senate proceedings, by Walter McDougall who revealed the duo as being anti-annexation of the Philippines Island instead suggested the approaches that would rather uplift humanity than benefit US. The anti-annexation protests by Colored citizens of Boston was a post of July 18, 1899. They encouraged the US to focus more on internal issues that demanded much attention rather than seizing other territories. The fifth document is the speech of Senator AlfredBeveridge, in Congress, January 9, 1900, by journalists. Beveridge is for the attempts of annexation terming it of great benefit to US for its economic and political relevance. The final document is the Judge Magazine, Filipinos First Bath by Kathleen Maltzahn, revealed on the 2004 International Women's Day on 4th March in Canberra. She ridicules the US efforts to forcibly civilize the Filipinos against their will. This essay critically examines these documents by looking at the pros and cons of what transpired from the annexation debates, the arguments for and against the proposed annexation and the analysis of the political cartoon that was inset.
Description of the Debate, Pros and Cons
The proposal by the United States to annex Philippines state triggered a confounding debate among the concerned parties drawn from both sides of the political divide. Whereas some argued in favor of the proposed invasion, the majority were totally repugnant to the idea. The debates that took center stage in the US Republicans verses Democrats politics were conducted between 1899 to 1903; the period within which the US government was grappling with its economic rivals in finding a voice over territories that had not been put under colonial influence (Emilio).
The annexation of Philippines would be very beneficial to United States, as it would expand its potential market for its surplus. Furthermore given that Philippines lie adjacent to China; its natural customer, US would use Philippines as its strategic base to China. Furthermore, leaving Philippines to themselves would be translated as a cowardly act by the US perennial rivals who would definitely take advantage and seize the territory to their own advantage (Beveridge).
On the other hand, annexation would be a good idea to the Filipinos only if the US would initiate humanitarian mission to uplift their standards in terms of education, Christianize them as way of initiating a conventional religion in them and the giving them the capacity to govern themselves through civilization, lest they dwell in perpetual tribulations. Other than these reasons, annexation of Philippines was unnecessary and inhumane mission especially if it would only favor unilateral benefits; to the US.
Arguments Are Offered Between Those Who Favor Annexation and Those Opposed
Those who supported the annexation agenda such as President McKinley and Senator Alfred Beveridge based their arguments on the fact that Philippines proximity to the Republic of China gave United States a grand opportunity for intensification of their economic ties with china; the natural customer for their surplus. They further expressed fears that following the vulnerability of Philippines, retreating would be viewed by their perennial rivals such as Spain, France and Germany as a cowardly act hence prompting them to seize it with much ease. They reiterated that leaving Philippines to themselves would mean no sense since the territory did not have any formal structures for governance, leave alone their feeble cognizance in education, civilization and Christianity (Beveridge).
However the majority of those who protested against the annexation agenda such as Senator Platt in the second document and the colored citizens of Boston in document five, dismissed their opponents sentiments and advocated for adoption of humanitarian approach to salvage Philippines from its economic and social bondage. They suggested the means of uplifting the lives of Filipinos through civilization, Christianizing them, intensifying education system and enabling them draft a fair constitution for themselves.
They made clear the conventional belief of equality of men and their entitlement to inalienable rights endowed by their Creator; from which governments should derive their just powers to rule over mankind. They advocated the means of civilization that the US adopted in spreading civilization across its own continent to be applicable even to the territories which they intended to have control over. While solemnly protesting against the unjustified invasion by the US to the Philippines Island, colored people of Boston ridiculed the step taken by the Republican government to attempt to forcibly civilize aliens by recurrent extrajudicial lynching, while evading their constitutional mandate of resolving their severe domestic mistakes.
Interpretation of the Message in the Visual (Political Cartoon)
The annexation of the Philippines Island by the US Republican government is likened to the analogy of The Filipinos first bath illustrated in the cartoon. The US pay a mysterious visit to the island and finds the natives peacefully enjoying their environment as they fend for themselves by use of rudimentary implements. After examining their simple lifestyles the US decides to subject the Filipinos to civilization, their first bath. This is done in a ruthless way without the consent and the will of Filipinos themselves, who were comfortably going about their errands. The implement (brush) used to sanitize them is quite abrasive causing more harm than good to their general wellbeing. Unfortunately, the few possessions that they have are taken away by aliens while they are still undergoing a painful transformation in their body hygiene.
Philosophically, the cartoon denotes the iniquitous means by which the US adopted to put the Filipinos under their ruler-ship. Though they looked like they had a good agenda of bringing civilization to the region, the means they used were so cruel and unwelcome by the natives. The most disgusting thing is that the US motive behind annexation was to enrich itself by exploring and exploiting the meager resources available in the island to the detriment of the Filipinos.
Attempts by colonial powers to control developing territories were not received in good faith by the natives of those territories as well as the human rights activities of the colonial powers themselves. Although the civilization was necessary to the whole world, the approaches used to instigate it were too cruel to be welcome by natives.
Although no colonialism is literally taking place today, the dominance of some countries over others economically and politically is a sign of mild perpetuation of colonialism. This has subjected some countries to permanent dependency over others as they grapple with socio-economic challenges on a daily basis. It is evident that the motive behind the efforts of civilization was ill, intended to enrich the colonial powers themselves at the detriment of colonies. It is time the colonial powers demonstrated remorse for the harms cause during their colonial rule and jump start processes to reimburse the victims of colonialism.

Is LG tribute empire 3G or 4G?
Tribute empire, from LG, is a 3G phone. But what does that mean? 3G phones are those that use the third generation of wireless phone technology, also known as UMTS. UMTS is an International Telecommunications Union (ITU) standard that delivers high-speed data and voice services.
4G, or fourth generation, wireless technology is the next step up from 3G. 4G LTE (Long Term Evolution) is the most common 4G standard, and it promises even higher data speeds and reliability than UMTS.
Most countries around the world have started to roll out 4G LTE services, and in many cases, 3G networks are being phased out in favor of 4G. So, if you're buying a phone for use in a foreign country, it's a good idea to make sure it's a 4G LTE phone.
That said, 3G phones are still very common, and in many cases they offer perfectly acceptable data speeds. So, if you're not planning on traveling abroad, or if you're not bothered by slightly slower data speeds, a 3G phone is a good option.
If you're looking for a 4G phone, Tribute empire is not it, but LG's G Flex 2 is.

ALEKS has allowed me to teach math more successfully in my special day class, where my students' skill levels range from third grade to Algebra.
I had many levels of student skills in my special day class, and students who really learned better with individual instruction. It was very difficult to find lessons that were standards-based for all grade levels and at the students' instructional level.
I assign six students a day to use ALEKS during the math period. During the computer lab period, I give students at least 20 minutes to work in ALEKS.
No, I let ALEKS determine what needs to be taught.
I have a chart on my white board that lists what each student should be doing.
ALEKS allows me to truly individualize my instruction, which makes my students feel successful.
It is a parental decision whether or not the student works at home. However, it is obvious which students work at home due to their greater success.
I share the data on students' progress reports. Last year, a student grew three grade levels in one year because of his parents' dedication to using ALEKS at home.
I do not typically give homework, but I do require concentrated effort in class.
I give a participation/effort/attitude grade for using the program. I am looking to develop a more data-based method of grading ALEKS.
I haven't been requiring a certain amount of progress, but I would like to start doing that in the future.
I have seen a lot of growth on the state standardized testing. With ALEKS, my students are able to cover a wider range of skills, and at least be exposed to problems written in a similar way to the standardized tests. My students beg me for more time on ALEKS, because it provides them with a feeling of success that is real, which is rare for a special education student.
I have noticed that having students help their peers is a double success for me. First, I can tell whether or not a student has a good understanding of the concept; second, it can be less emotionally difficult for students when they work together to solve a problem.

[43818/09]
Question 179: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the number of the existing remand, detention and assessment beds which will transfer to Oberstown in view of his plans to move the Finglas child and adolescent centre; the reason no discussions on these proposals have taken place in the Labour Relations Commission; if unions representing staff in Finglas have been informed of the proposals; and the manner in which staff in Finglas will have an input into plans for the transfer of existing services. [43819/09]
Question 180: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the plans for the use of the existing buildings in Finglas following the proposed transfer of services from the Finglas child and adolescent centre in 2010. [43820/09]
Dermot Ahern (Minister, Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform; Louth, Fianna Fail)
I refer the Deputy again to my response to Parliamentary Question No. 262 on 10 November, 2009.
I would just add that the four Schools have a total certified accommodation capacity of 77 beds of which 61 are currently operational. All four Schools provide both remand and committal beds and each can provide an assessment service, if requested by the courts, while a young person is on remand. There are a total of 16 remand and committal beds in the Finglas Child & Adolescent Centre with 11 of those beds occupied on Monday 23 November, 2009. I am informed by the Irish Youth Justice Service that there are sufficient surplus beds, both remand and committal, in Oberstown to accommodate children as the phased transfer from Finglas takes place.
I am also informed that discussions, facilitated by the Labour Relations Commission, commenced last Friday. Those discussions are focused on the closure of the Centre by the end of March, 2010, the transition to Oberstown, and the arrangements that need to be made. The site will then be returned to the Office of Public Works to determine its appropriate future use (as recommended by the Working Group).

Composer/Bandleader Roland Vazquez Proudly Announces The Release of Roland Vazquez Band: The Visitor
Posted by Rob Young in Latin Jazz, Modern Jazz, New Music, What's New?
≈ Comments Off on Composer/Bandleader Roland Vazquez Proudly Announces The Release of Roland Vazquez Band: The Visitor
Drums, Roland Vazquez
Roland Vasquez Band - The Visitor
The Visitor is Vazquez' tenth album as composer/leader, his first studio recording in thirteen years, & a 19-piece all-star Afro Latin "big band" project made possible through a grant from The Aaron Copland Fund For Music
The Roland Vazquez Band featuring:
Aaron Heick, Joel Frahm, Dan Willis, Roger Rosenberg,
Tony Kadleck, Alex Norris Luis Perdomo (piano),
James Genus (bass), Ignacio Berroa (drums)
Samuel Torres (congas & percussion), Pete McCann (guitar)
Roland Vazquez (composer/conductor/producer)
Roland Vazquez Band
To know Roland Vazquez is to know his music, and vice versa. Like many true artists, his work is inseparable from the essence of his character. One can hear in the music of Vazquez, the powerful optimism, wisdom, love, humor and joy that exudes so effortlessly from the man. Nowhere has this been more prevalent than on the award-winning and critically-acclaimed composer, bandleader and drummer's glorious new recording, The Visitor, to be released on RVCD through iTunes on July 8, and through CD Baby on August 9.
The Visitor was recorded in Clinton's Studio A in New York City, one of the last big rooms on the East Coast (this recording now stands as a testament to the dynamic energy of a big band sound captured "live in a room"), and was made possible in part by a Recording Grant from The Aaron Copland Fund For Music, Inc.
Roland Vazquez Band, an all-star 19-piece group of unique individuals, whose origins are from all over the Western Hemisphere, delivers the most fully-realized performances of these brilliantly elaborate compositions to date. Just assembling this A-list of musicians in the studio was a major feat. The Visitor marks the first time many of these players have recorded together. Vazquez explains further, "It has been a real gift for me to work with each of these outstanding musicians while preparing, performing, and recording this music. Their individuality of spirit clearly resonates throughout the recording – they have succeeded, beyond my best expectations, in lifting this music 'off the page'. While this is certainly my biggest project, I feel The Visitor could well be my most significant recording to date." Co-producer and engineer Todd Whitelock (a long-time collaborator and friend) commented that he had never experienced "so much goodwill" surrounding a recording, from everyone involved. Tangible evidence of this goodwill pours from the speakers as the spirit of selflessly giving to one another, and to the music, comes shining through the notes that collectively make up The Visitor.
The Visitor includes six Vazquez compositions, as well as "Guarabé" by Grammy winning composer/arranger, and Roland's inspirational mentor, Clare Fischer. The CD is deeply rooted in the Afro-Latin and contemporary jazz traditions, and all of the compositions are rich with riveting ensemble passages and exciting solos. "Each of these compositions holds a special meaning for me, either in their story-oriented subtext, or as a mirror of an actual life experience or dream," explains Vazquez.
Since his last studio album, Further Dance, Vazquez has been most active writing new music, performing with his Quintet, and presenting works for various ensembles while giving clinics, lectures, and performances at residencies around the country (Berklee School of Music, Eastman School of Music, UCCM, Ohio University, and others). In addition, he has dedicated time to teaching (Jazz Faculty at Manhattan School of Music, 1988-1998, and The University of Michigan, 2000-2005). Vazquez also spent an amazing, productive year in Rome as an Artist-in-Residence at the American Academy, collaborating with jazz and world musicians in Italy.
What a thrill for listeners to experience the return of Roland Vazquez with The Visitor, a joyously gripping recording that presents over 72 minutes of dynamic & demanding music which Vazquez has been conceptualizing, refining and composing during the past thirty years.
Recorded Feb 28, March 1-2, The Visitor (RVD7007) was made possible in part through the generous support of the Aaron Copland Fund for Music, Inc. Recording Grant Program. The Visitor will be available on iTunes on July 8, and through CD Baby on August 9, 2010.

Despite rocketing fuel costs and the eurozone recession, Ryanair has pulled record profits of more than €0.5bn out of the bag.
By launching 330 new routes, increasing traffic by 5% to 76 million passengers and, of course, squeezing every last penny out of travellers, the airline has notched up revenues of €4.3bn and profits of €503m. That's 25% more profit than last year.
Compared to its closest rival, budget airline easyJet, it's quite the result. Stelios' outfit managed to cut first-half losses to £112m, but it'll need to have one hell of a summer to get back into the black. Ryanair, however, has managed to fill the £360m hole created by extra fuel costs with a 16% rise in fares.
Nevertheless, the group is quick to follow its record results announcement with a warning about the coming year. 'Recession, austerity, currency concerns and lower fares at new and growing bases in Hungary, Poland, provincial UK and Spain will make it difficult to repeat this year's record results,' reads the company statement. It forecasts annual profits of between €400m and €440m for the year to the end of March 2013.
Let's not mention this weekend's balls-up, for example. The Ryanair website was closed for 'essential maintenance', making online check-in unavailable and forcing many passengers to pay fees of €60 to get on their flights.

Mark Bittman writes about the need to escape technology and connect to yourself once a week. I think it's a great idea.
In short, my name is Mark, and I'm a techno-addict. But after my airplane experience, I decided to do something about it. Thus began my "secular Sabbath" -- a term I found floating around on blogs -- a day a week where I would be free of screens, bells and beeps. An old-fashioned day not only of rest but of relief.
Escaping screens for 24 hours a week could only be a good thing for me.

Orange County Public Schools Career and Technical Education (OCPS CTE) provides short-term practical career training, most often resulting in an immediate job opportunity.
With four tech centers and five campus locations, Career and Technical Education is an integral part of the OCPS K–12 system and works in close partnership with surrounding businesses and industries. Each program provides quality training and preparation for entering the workplace with the knowledge and competence needed to compete in a global marketplace. In addition, the diversity of these program offerings strengthens the economic base of the community by providing a well-trained workforce.
Prior to joining forces with our team, OCPS CTE was in need of increasing awareness of its programs and services in order to grow enrollment. Our research showed that prospects valued OCPS CTE's ability to provide low-cost, convenient, short-term career training. Career certificate programs are very affordable with most taking approximately one year to complete, making this the institute's biggest competitive advantage.
Our strategic solution was to create an integrated, multimedia advertising program to stimulate action.
It communicated key strengths as an educational provider with a goal of creating more awareness and enrollment opportunities for the tech centers.
Based on our research findings, we positioned OCPS CTE's services as a fast, low-cost career path in comparison to a four-year degree with a high tuition. Our marketing statement, "1/4 the Cost. 1/4 the Time." was visually reinforced with quarters and headlines encouraging individuals to make a change.
The campaign was strategically optimized to reach a tight geographic segment within the Orlando DMA, which accounts for more than 80 percent of enrolled students. Media vehicles included cable TV, interactive ads that offered the ability for TV viewers in digital households to use their remote to obtain a direct mail piece, in-cinema advertising, bus advertising (external signage and internal video displays), outdoor, radio, direct mail, print, interactive and online direct-response.
Increasing web visits by 40 percent during peak advertising periods.
Establishing method for tracking phone activity to a centralized number; calls now averaging more than 100 per month.
Developing monthly web leads system that produced 1,344 highly qualified prospects during the campaign, with a conversion rate of 3 percent.

Brighton Bier
Does anyone not love Brighton? Modern, but with a whiff of British seaside nostalgia. Colourful, cosmopolitan and a little bit nuts. It's also great fun. Now they've got a craft brewer in town that is all of those things and more.
Brighton Bier began life in 2012 as a gypsy brewery at the famous Hand in Hand brewpub in Kemptown. "From the outset the ambition was to play a lead role in the revival of the city's once proud and independent commercial brewing heritage, and put Brighton firmly back on the brewing map" explains Stephen Whitehurst, one of the directors at the brewery.
The brewery is just 1.5 miles from the town centre and a stone's throw from the Brighton seafront. You sense a central location in the city has always been of paramount importance to Brighton Bier. Staying close to their brewing roots, but also maintaining the integrity of their brand as a brewery based in Brighton.
It's been an exciting journey from humble beginnings having quickly grown to a 7,500-litre per week production capacity less than a mile from where it all started. They've got a clear plan for the kind of beers they want to produce according to Gary Sillence, Founder and Head Brewer; "we want to embrace the attitude, ingredients and flavour profiles of the progressive beer styles from Belgium, North America and beyond, but to do so in a way that respects the character and historical integrity of British ale".
A few weeks after bottling their signature "Brighton Bier", the first beer they bottled, they rather cockily entered it into the International Beer Challenge. Over 630 beers from more than 30 countries entered. Brighton Bier was one of only three UK breweries, along with Beavertown and BrewDog, to win Gold. Nice work.
It's a top session beer. Weighing in at just 4% it punches well above it's weight flavour-wise. Tropical fruit dominates both the aroma and taste whilst the pale malts rein it all in and make it necessary to drink it in massive gob-fulls. The finish is dry and bitter making you want to gulp it faster. Oh, it's gone.
"From its inception Brighton Bier has been about developing the beer culture of the city and getting the best possible beer into the hands of Brighton residents and visitors alike", said Gary Sillence (Brighton Bier founder and Brewer). We're a long way from Brighton but we may well visit for a few more bottles of this. To the beach.

Indian chess grandmaster Viswanathan Anand talks about the game, advantages a chess player enjoys by training in Chennai and how has the infrastructure changed in recent decades.
Most chess players and enthusiasts from Chennai cite you becoming India's first GM in 1988 as the main inspiration for their taking to chess and pursuing it as a passion. How do you see this?
Well, I was the first one. When I started playing, there wasn't a clear path as to what to do to become a GM. I think that was a big moment for Indian chess in general, as many of us were close to the title.
Your winning the World Championship six times has kept the momentum going?
Definitely. My first win was partly in India. When you have someone win a world championship, it definitely helps the sport. People have someone to cheer. Even now, I get people saying they study my games in Bonn, or that my game against Gelfand fascinated them.
How was the chess infrastructure in Chennai during your younger days, and what has changed in the decades since?
We mainly played blitz among ourselves. There were many weekend events. The first prize guaranteed me an ice cream and dosa on the way home. It was all friendly and casual. Now, everything is more systematic and measurable. Chess has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of technology and the internet. Chess training has changed so much. A six-year-old will approach chess more systematically now than when I was playing.
What advantages does a chess player enjoy by training in Chennai? Do the city's environs pack something special?
As they say, Chennai is an emotion! Many people play, so you can always get together to play or study chess. In fact, we realised that within Chennai itself, Anna Nagar has the highest proportion of Elo ratings.
Is there any aspect where you would like to see some improvement? Like chess being part of school programmes?
Chess in schools is becoming a reality—the effects of which we are slowly noting.
When do you see another world chess champion emerging from India? Are there any promising players you see?
Chess is in one of its best phases in India. I could say there are at least five contenders who could take a shot at the title.

Benvenuto di Giovanni
Benvenuto di Giovanni, also known as Benvenuto di Giovanni di Meo del Guasta (13 September 1436 – c. 1518) was an Italian painter and artist known for his choral miniatures, pavement designs, and frescoes. Working chiefly in Siena, he was first recognized to be working as an artist in 1453 and continued his work nearly until his death in approximately 1518. During his lifetime, he was influenced by many various artists and in the 1480s, Benvenuto's style changed drastically.[1]
St Francis of Assissi, c. 1475–1478
Though Benvenuto did explore into other fields of work, painting was consistently a part of his life. His son, Girolamo di Giovanni, followed in his footsteps and also became a painter. In fact, there have often been instances in which the work of one the two has been confused for that of the other.[2] Nevertheless, Benvenuto left behind significantly more works. Some of his works were both signed and dated, some were only signed, and some were only dated. However, regardless of debate over date or authorship, Benvenuto left behind a significant number of works, both ones that are quite well known as well as others that are more minor in their distinction. His pieces that are signed, dated, and still existing have dates spanning a period of 43 years.[1] In addition to the works that he left behind, he also left behind a legacy through the artists that he influenced during his lifetime.

5 Legacy
Life and influencesEdit
Born to a bricklayer in Siena, Benvenuto remained there for his entire life, only occasionally venturing to nearby cities for his work. The first records of him as an artist are of his contributions to the Siena Baptistery in 1453. His work here was likely in collaboration with il Vecchietta, as it is believed that Benvenuto was trained in his workshop. Outside of Vecchietta, Benvenuto was also likely to have worked under Sano di Pietro because they share a number of similarities stylistically.[1]
Benvenuto was commissioned to do a number of works in the Siena Cathedral during his life that included choral miniatures, pavement designs, and frescoes. However, he was not the only artist requested to work in the cathedral; artists and painters such as Matteo di Giovanni, Francesco di Giorgio Martini, and Neroccio di Bartolomeo de' Landi were also commissioned, or hired, for nearly the same jobs. This commonality led to Benvenuto and the other artists having a significant amount of influence upon one another's style.[1]
Other painters that had works in the Siena Cathedral were Liberale da Verona and Girolamo da Cremona. What sets these artists apart is that it is believed that their pieces in the cathedral were what led to Benvenuto's great shift in style in the 1480s. In 1482, he was commissioned to paint Donation of the Keys to St. Peter in the Antiphonary of the Birth of St. John. It was at this time that he saw Liberale and Girolamo's recent works in the cathedral that incorporated bright colors and manipulated light. As a result of this, he began to do the same in his paintings. Additionally, not only did his style shift in this way, but he also began to experiment with the concept of spatial distortion that was common in paintings by Vecchietta and Donatello.[1] He used a very naturalistic style for his figures, but paired them with a brightly colored and sharply lit background.[3] The combination of his efforts to depict realistic figures, to strategically utilize colors, and to manipulate space in order to give his paintings depth led to a style that was both distinct and uniquely his. These shifts in his style can be seen in paintings such as Maestà and Ascension.[1]
Outside of painting, Benvenuto also explored other personal endeavors. In 1466, he married Jacopa di Tommaso de Cetona. After their marriage, he served at least two terms in a public office. Together, they owned a vineyard and also had seven children. The only child that much is known about is Girolamo, as he was Benvenuto's only follower. However, Girolamo is regarded as both less gifted and less influential, largely because he only survived his father by six years.[1][4]
Major worksEdit
AnnunciationEdit
Annunciation, 1470
It is known that Benvenuto painted at least two versions of the Annunciation. His first Annunciation is the earliest known painting by him, dated in 1466. Despite this being his first work, there was little evidence of the influence of his teacher, Vecchietta. Rather, this work was very clearly inspired by Simone Martini's 1333 painting of the same name. Many other Annunciation works by other artists during Benvenuto's lifetime used landscapes and backgrounds, but Benvenuto employed a more simple gold ground that was typical in works of the early Trecento.[5] Benvenuto's 1466 version resides in the church of St. Girolamo in Volterra.[6]
Benvenuto's growth as an artist is evident through comparison of his 1466 Annunciation with his 1470 version. In 1466, Benvenuto opted for a more subtle coloration in his work. However, in 1470, while many of his contemporaries still utilized softer palettes, Benvenuto chose to paint with rich, deep colors that pleased the viewer's eye. This shift in style is likely to have been inspired by two artists that were quite famous during the latter part of the Quattrocento, Girolamo da Cremona and Liberale da Verona. Additionally, Benvenuto traded in his previous flat gold background for one of detailed scenery, including lush gardens, mountains, and lakes.[5]
Expulsion from ParadiseEdit
Expulsion from Paradise, 1470s[7]
This painting, done by many artists, depicts Adam and Eve being cast out of the Garden of Eden by the archangel, Jophiel. However, Benvenuto's version stands out from the others because his depiction of Eden is far more realistic than that of other artists. He paints Eden as a lush green forest rather than a land full of a myriad of plants and animals. He expertly constructs the figures in a way that makes the subjects come alive through the intermingling of their arms and angling of their bodies.[5] Most likely painted between 1480 and 1500, this exhibits Benvenuto's later style that combines realistic backgrounds and dramatic subjects.
At this time, nothing is known of this painting's provenance, or ownership, before 1921, when it became a part of the Engel-Gros Collection. In fact, even the validity of who may be the artist of this painting underwent speculation. Expulsion from Paradise is unsigned and was originally attributed to Benvenuto's son, Girolamo. The credit continued to be given to his son for quite a while, until it was also given to Cosimo Tura, and then finally to Benvenuto, which was settled upon by art historians.[2]
Despite the credit eventually being given to Benvenuto, it is likely that this confusion arose in the first place due to their probable collaboration on the piece. Towards the end of his life, Benvenuto regularly worked with his son, which this piece seems to exhibit. The design itself appears to be Benvenuto's, but certain aspects point towards the assistance of his son. The details of the figures' faces, as well as their shaping, is in a style that is typical of Girolamo.[5]
Minor worksEdit
The Adoration of the MagiEdit
The Adoration of the Magi, c.1470/1475
This theme is one that has been depicted in Italian paintings since the Middle Ages, but it became particularly popular with Sienese painters after Bartolo di Fredi created his triptych to decorate the altar of the Three Kings in the Siena Cathedral. After this creation, Bartolo's influence began to be seen in nearly every Sienese painting of the same theme, including Benvenuto's. However, the influence of other artists is evident as well. It is believed that Benvenuto's version was inspired by Gentile da Fabriano's 1423 version that was commissioned by the Church of Santa Trinità.[3]
Benvenuto's work now resides in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., but is currently not on exhibit. The date of the painting is unknown, with estimates ranging from 1460 to 1490. The difficulty in deciphering the date largely comes from the wear on the work, with most of the original painting being now covered by retouches. Nevertheless, when compared to Bevenuto's dated pieces, many art historians are convinced that it was completed between 1470 and 1475. This conclusion is a result of the perspective of the painting, or the way in which the flat painting is made to seem three-dimensional. Much like his 1470 Annunciation, the apparent vanishing point of the painting is lower than the horizon of the background would suggest.[3]
Madonna and Child with Saint Jerome and Saint Bernardino of SienaEdit
Madonna and Child with Saint Jerome and Saint Bernardino of Siena, c. 1480/1485
Unlike many of Benvenuto's works, this one in particular has consistently been attributed to him without any confusion. Nevertheless, its date is still unclear. In most paintings of this theme, Madonna's child is held in her arms, but Benvenuto depicts him seated in front of her. The child is holding a pomegranate that is representative of both the Church and the blood of Christ. The choice to not place the child in Madonna's arms as well as the inclusion of the pomegranate are both artistic decisions that don't appear in Italian paintings until significantly after 1470, thus, the painting's date has been approximated as c. 1480/1485.[3]
Much of the confusion with the date of this painting revolves around the fact that it doesn't quite fall into either Benvenuto's early, flat and crisp, style or his later, brightly colored and more detailed, style. It is far simpler than nearly all of his paintings, likely due to his patron's request. Recently, the first expressions of doubt of his attribution have surfaced due to this stark contrast. Nevertheless, attribution still lies in Benvenuto's hands.[3]
The CrucifixionEdit
The Crucifixion, c. 1491
Framed alongside four other of his works (Agony in the Garden, The Way to Calvary, The Resurrection, and The Descent into Limbo), this predella set of paintings details the struggles of Christ.[8] It is believed that these paintings were created in or around 1491 due to the similarities in the landscapes of The Crucifixion and Benvenuto's 1491 Ascension.[9] In The Crucifixion, various prominent biblical figures within this story can be seen in Benvenuto's portrayal of the event. Longinus is depicted on horseback slightly behind Christ, holding the spear that he had pierced Christ with earlier. In the bottom left corner of the painting is the Virgin, Saint John, Mary, the mother of James, the Magdalene, and the three holy women. The Virgin is the figure that is fainting and the others are the ones surrounding and supporting her.[9]
Painting the Virgin Mary fainting is an artistic choice that was very common in fourteenth-century Sienese representations of this event. However, what was not common, was Benvenuto's choice to include the children on the hill in the upper left corner. They are, from a distance, pointing towards and spectating the cruelty that is occurring in the center of the painting. This inclusion had never been made before, thus, it exemplified Benvenuto's creativity and inventiveness.[9]
Extant signed and dated paintingsEdit
Benvenuto has 11 signed and dated paintings that are still surviving. Their dates of creation span 43 years.[6]

LegacyEdit
As stated previously, Benvenuto's only known follower was his son, Girolamo. Nonetheless, it is believed that he did have influence upon other artists during his life. Specifically, works by the Sienese painter, Andrea di Niccolò, show significant evidence of Benvenuto's influence. In her dissertation, Diane Vatne details this connection, showing that Andrea and Benvenuto had a lifelong relationship, beginning with Benvenuto writing Andrea's tax returns in 1481 and continuing through Benvenuto's influence upon Andrea's work. However, it must be noted that Andrea was not a follower or student of Benvenuto, the latter's influence was a mere result of proximity, both physically and emotionally.[10]
Benvenuto's influence is the most evident in Andrea's 1502 version of the Crucifixion. In this painting, the sharpness and intensity of the drapery, figures, and colors point directly towards the influence of Benvenuto's later style. Other works are less obviously influenced by Benvenuto, but still hold characteristics that point towards his impact upon Andrea. These characteristics are largely ones pertaining towards Benvenuto's distinct naturalistic depiction of figures, crisp backgrounds, and intentional draping of clothing that are evident in Andrea's works.[10]

They say that good sportsmanship involves treating each other with respect. It is also about supporting one another, and helping to conquer someone's athletic goals. I was introduced to the incredible power of positive sportsmanship during the inaugural Spinning® Escape Jamaica Event (SEJA) in Negril, Jamaica which was held November 4th – 6th, 2016. Hosted at the incredible sports complex of the Couples Swept Away Resort, SEJA was designed as a spinning, fitness and yoga destination event geared towards developing the skills of fitness professionals, while also providing fun and inspiration for all types and levels of fitness enthusiasts.
There were three days of events, the first two comprised more than 40 sessions broken into themes of outdoor fitness, swimming, yoga, fitness tips, In-Trinity® and of course spinning.
Spinning is growing as a form of exercise in Jamaica and is widely popular worldwide, an indoor cycling class led by an instructor who guides you on the "ride", indicating hills and flats, and is usually set to music.
The In-Trinity® programme also developed by the Spinning creator, Johnny G is new to Jamaica and the Caribbean. SEJA was the first time the boards, instructor training and classes were offered allowing participants an in person experience of this new fitness regime, where strength and balance are combined for a full mind body connection.
The final day involved a Reverse Spinning Triathlon that involved a 30-minute run, 2-hour spin and then a 300-meter swim. This "reverse tri" as it was referred to, was billed as the Caribbean's first land, indoor and sea event where the traditional triathlon is done in reverse order.
The brainchild of four dynamic spinning instructors - Jodi Mair, Natalie Murray and Lisa Adelle-Jondeau from Jamaica along with Natashia Iacovelli from Australia - SEJA took 2 and half years of planning and based on the experience of guests, it was very much a success. Instructors and participants came from far and wide, including South America, Europe, the UK, Saudia Arabia, the United States and Canada. For many, it was their first time to Jamaica and very much a fitting introduction.
As engaging and active as the sessions were, the other experience of the event was the incredible venue of the Swept Away Couples Resort Negril. Beyond the beach, the all-inclusive resort has an incredible sports complex that supports health and wellness. From the air-conditioned spinning room, to tennis courts, indoor racquetball/squash courts, lap pool and fresh juice bar, Swept Away was a magnificent venue. While wandering through the lush, tropical setting, it's easy to see how one would want to exercise while vacationing. A true wellness experience!
As we moved through the various sessions and sporting events, the theme that complemented the sunshine and breezy atmosphere was inspiration. This was not an isolating experience. You were never on your own or intimidated. This was inspiration to be better at fitness. To help others with their goals. To learn from one another. To overcome fear. To be a better, healthier you. Echoing the sentiment of everyone at the closing event, I cannot wait to attend next year because quite frankly, it felt incredible. Kudos to the SEJA team for their choice of destination and sport! Save the Date for SEJA 2017: Nov. 3 – 5, 2017.

One of the great artists of the Baroque, Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione (1609-64) was perhaps the most innovative and technically brilliant Italian draftsman of his time. He practised as a painter, but won fame for his drawings and prints.
Despite leading a violent and turbulent life, he produced works of grace and rare beauty, which were highly esteemed for a century after his death. But Castiglione unaccountably fell from fame in the modern era. The Royal Collection holds the finest surviving group of the artist's works.

BURUNDI'S parliament passed the government's planned budget of 1.7 trillion francs ($869.7 million) for the financial year starting July, up 8% from the expenditure for the current fiscal year.
Friday's measure puts priority on areas such as "good governance, public health, agriculture and livestock (and) youth development," in the next fiscal year, the government said in a budget document presented in parliament by Finance Minister Domicien Ndihokubwayo. Ndihokubwayo said 76.4% of the budget would be funded from tax revenues while the rest would be from aid.
The economy of the central African nation, which relies on exports of coffee and tea, is seen expanding at 3.6% in the next fiscal year. The minister did not give a figure for the previous period.
Burundi's economy is reeling from the impact of pandemic and years of violence and lawlessness under the deceased former president Pierre Nkurunziza.
The government will crack down on corrupt practices including embezzlement and diversion of public funds, the minister said.
