Shambolic Stansted: How you can grab duty free booze without leaving the country unchecked by short staffed customs and immigration

David HenckeLondon 06 April 2018
A damning report on the state of the border force at Stansted Airport by an independent inspector reveals how you can even get away with buying duty free stuff there without needing to fly and get away with it.
Just before Stansted was hit by a bus fire which wrecked people's Easter holiday flights Parliament received a damning report on the state of border controls at the airport by David Bolt, Independent Chief Inspector of Borders and Immigration.
Rushed out with four other reports from the inspectorate at the close of Parliament it went unnoticed by mainstream media.
What it disclosed is that the airport has been at the centre of a duty free scam under the noses of the border force enabling UK residents to get cheap duty free fags, perfume and booze without leaving the country.
It worked like this. Buy the cheapest air ticket from say Ryanair or Jet 2.com, get through customs and immigration control, go to duty free. Once there stock up with booze, fags, perfume. designer goods and then walk out of another exit to the baggage hall pretending you are on an incoming flight. Then leave the airport.
The scam first discovered in an earlier report in 2013 has been claimed by Stansted Airport's management to have been stopped though inspectors are sceptical.
The report says: "Border Force and Manchester Airport Group (MAG) (owners of Stansted) told inspectors that they had addressed this issue, and the number of such incidents had been greatly reduced. Border Force reported that "the newly created Stansted Crime Team had prioritised working with Duty Free Retail Partners as part of its routine to combat fraud and engagement with partners in this area had had demonstrable results with a number of cigarette seizures that were illicitly obtained."
However inspectors checking arrangements last year had a different view.
It says they didn't see any fraud but "they did witness individuals who had not travelled exiting the restricted zone via a channel marked "Returning Passengers". A MAG employee was tasked with verifying that individuals using this channel
had not arrived from abroad (by asking to check their ticket) before allowing them to enter the baggage hall.
"There were no Border Force staff in the "Returning Passengers" channel, and the MAG employee did not appear to notify Border Force of individuals entering the baggage hall via this route. Inspectors did not observe any customs checking of these individuals as they exited."
The report also finds a whole series of discrepancies between the management of the airport and the staff views of what is really happening. Management say staff are content while staff say they have low morale.
For a start it has never had a full complement of borders force staff and over a third of its 199 full time equivalent staff is on stand by - so called seasonal workforce (SWF)- mainly retired ex policeman- called in during peak periods which now extended to most of the time who can only monitor e-gates and sit on the immigration desk.
"Inspectors were told that levels of experience at Stansted were "dwindling" with fewer and fewer staff with the skills required to carry out a range of duties. As a result, managers were finding rostering increasingly difficult and time-consuming. Inspectors were also told that rosters were dependent on the availability of SWF, because there were not enough permanent staff. "
"The main complaint from frontline staff was that they were not able to access skills training,especially the nationally-managed "Core Skills" training required for different Border Force roles.
"As well as impacting morale, particularly where staff believe that Border Force has failed to deliver on promises made to them about developing them as "multi-functional officers" and providing job variety, the failure to provide skills training has created inflexibilities in terms of how staff can be deployed.
"This is inefficient and damaging to Border Force's operational effectiveness. It therefore needs to be dealt with as a priority."
The inspectors found safeguarding issues - particularly in checking whether 12 to 17 year olds who could use e-gates by themselves with hardly any monitoring.
And a disastrous re-organisation and centralisation of parcels checks meant that seizures of illegal drugs collapsed at one stage and only just recovering. "This function was centralised to the fast-parcel hub at East Midlands Airport, which now generates alerts and targets for itself and for Stansted. Staff at Stansted told inspectors that, initially, this change had resulted in a "collapse" in seizures."
Added to that :The customs teams working with freight and fast parcels told inspectors that they were hampered by a lack of suitable detection equipment, for example to test and identify controlled substances."
And inspectors suspect that border force people may miss people being trafficked into the UK due to shortages of skilled staff.
The report concluded that management has just " a tick box mentality" which did not correspond with the reality on the ground.
Stansted is the nation's fourth busiest airport. Half the people using it are British and all but 10 per cent are from the European Union. One wonders what will happen post Brexit and post a plan to double the size of the airport if it cannot cope at the moment. This is not a pretty picture of British competence.

Backlog of a Half-Million Endoscopies & Rising During the Pandemic, Report Finds

medicalxpress.com
A backlog of nearly half a million endoscopy procedures, essential for diagnosing gastrointestinal cancers and diseases, has built up during the COVID-19 pandemic, finds a new analysis of NHS England data led by UCL researchers.
The study, published in The Lancet Gastroenterology and Hepatology, shows the number of endoscopies being performed in April 2020, the month following the first lockdown, fell by over 90%.
By January 2021 researchers estimated the backlog was 476,000, and this figure could potentially rise to more than 870,000, should there be a further full or partial lockdown and/or a slow return to normality.
Clinicians are now calling on the U.K. government and NHS to implement a concerted mitigation plan, in order to prioritize patients in urgent need of an endoscopy and help reduce the health impact and consequences.
Explaining the study, lead author Dr. Alex Ho (UCL Division of Surgery and Interventional Science) said: "The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on NHS diagnostic services. This has included endoscopic services which are crucial in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal cancers and diseases, such as bowel, stomach and oesophageal cancer. In this study, we sought to quantify the national backlog of endoscopic procedures in England and assess how interventions may affect this backlog."
For the study, researchers analyzed the number of endoscopies (colonoscopies, flexible sigmoidoscopies and gastroscopies) performed across England, using NHS England's Monthly Diagnostic Waiting Times and Activity dataset.
To estimate the potential backlog they compared the number of endoscopies performed by month, from January 1, 2018, through to Oct 31, 2020, from 125 NHS trusts in England.
In April 2020, the month following lockdown, 10,476 endoscopy procedures were performed, representing 9·5% (or a 90.5% drop) of those done in April, 2019 when 110 584 procedures were done. Endoscopy procedures recovered to 105,716 in October, 2020—84.5% of the 125,072 done in October 2019.
As part of a modeling analysis, researchers concluded that even if endoscopy procedures reached 100% of pre-pandemic monthly totals from November 2020, the backlog in January 2021 would be 476,000.
Modeling against further interruption (i.e full or partial lockdown), researchers found a further two-month interruption would add an extra 15.4% or 73,000 to the backlog total, a four-month interruption would add an extra 43.8% or 208,000, and a six-month interruption (worst case scenario) would add an extra 82.5% to the potential backlog—equating to 393,000 additional procedures (so a potential backlog of 870,000). However, researchers say, the vaccine rollout and lessons learnt from the first wave mean the higher figure will likely be reduced.
Assuming no further interruption (recovery phase), researchers modeled the backlog from January 2021 to January 2023, using the average number of procedures carried out in 'normal times' researchers estimated the backlog recovery at 90% of capacity through to 130%. If 90% of procedures took place the backlog by January 2023 would be 811,000. At 100% the backlog would be 476,000. To clear the backlog by January 2023, procedures would need to be conducted at 130%.
In a separate scenario researchers asked what would happen if the NHS used the FIT (fecal immunochemical test) to triage/prioritize people for colonoscopies. They found that even with nationwide FIT implementation it would reduce colonoscopy volumes to around 75% of usual levels, with the colonoscopy backlog not cleared until early 2022 at the earliest.
Corresponding author, Professor Laurence Lovat (UCL Division of Surgery and Interventional Science) said: "Our study highlights the scale the COVID-19 pandemic has had on endoscopic services on the NHS in England. Even with mitigation measures, such as FIT triaging, it could take much longer than a year to eliminate the pandemic-related backlog. Urgent action is required by key stakeholders, including individual NHS trusts, Clinical Commissioning Groups, British Society of Gastroenterology, and NHS England, to tackle the backlog and prevent delays to patient management."
Co-author Professor Mark Lawler, Professor of Digital Health, Queen's University Belfast and Scientific Director DATA-CAN, the U.K.'s Health Data Research Hub for Cancer said:
"These data provide yet more evidence of the disastrous impact of COVID on cancer services and ultimately cancer patients. The precipitous drop in endoscopic services nationally (to less than 10% of pre COVID levels) is extremely worrying.
"We need to address the enormous backlog that has accumulated as a matter of urgency, otherwise we risk significant increases in deaths from colorectal and oesophageal cancer over the next five years."
The number of extra deaths or serious illness caused by delays in endoscopy procedures and diagnosis, was not covered in this study. However several modeling studies have been published in this area.
Professor Lawler added: "In previous work, we have shown that a six month delay could lead to nearly 3,000 excess deaths in people with cancers of the gastrointestinal tract."
The UCL-led study was carried out in collaboration with researchers at Queen's University Belfast and Newcastle University.
Funded sources included, the Wellcome/EPSRC Centre for Interventional and Surgical Sciences (WEISS) at UCL, National Institute for Health Research University College London Hospitals Biomedical Research Centre, and DATA-CAN, Health Data Research U.K..
Gastrointestinal cancers and diseases includes bowel (colorectal), stomach (gastric) and oesophageal (gullet) cancer. Bowel cancer is the 2nd biggest cancer killer in the U.K., oesophageal is the 7th and stomach is the 15th(CRUK data).
In March 2020, in response to COVID-19, the British Society of Gastroenterology issued guidance, recommending a six-week pause in endoscopic activity—so all but emergency and absolutely essential endoscopy should stop, including bowel cancer screening, allowing time to refine triage systems. In late April 2020 the BSG issued early guidance in the restarting of endoscopy services, acknowledging the additional challenges in delivering endoscopy services in the era of COVID-19.

CAPE TOWN - South Africa - Millions of noisy angry African bees have been attracted to the stadiums where the world cup games are being held, South African FIFA officials have revealed.
"The sound of the swarming bees is deafening. No one on the pitch can hear the referee blow his whistle and no one can hear the crowd cheering. The angry African bees seem to be attracted to the bright coloured football kits of the players and the bright clothes of the fans," a FIFA match official told South Africa's weekly, the Soweto Telegraph.
The bee swarms have invaded all of the stadiums where every world cup fixture is being held, and a number of people have been stung by the bees.
"Being stung by the bees was nothing, it was the bloody noise they made that really hurt. I'd rather be stung on my nut sack then listen to that racket all day," Geoffrey Alcoa, a fan who travelled all the way from Holland said.


Over the last year or so, there's been a pleasing ripple of musicians who, having internalised the old-timey American folk sound, produced work that at least makes an attempt at originality (as opposed to doe-eyed imitation). The debut House And Land album from 2017 is this reporter's contemporary gold standard, with the more recent solo album by Sarah Louise of the duo not far behind; 2018 releases by Anna & Elizabeth and British solo guitarist Gwenifer Raymond also warrant consideration. Nathan Bowles, a banjo player from North Carolina, has some pedigree in this field – a member of the Black Twig Pickers (whose number also includes House And Land's Sally Anne Morgan), he played alongside Jack Rose in the late 2000s, shortly before the Rose's untimely death. Plainly Mistaken, Bowles' fourth solo album, goes some way to demonstrating what a glowing legacy Rose left behind.
Actually, this isn't a solo album strictly speaking, or at least it's Bowles' first time using outside help: drummer Rex McMurry, who also plays in endearing yacht-psych band Cave, and double bassist Casey Toll. It definitely feels like the banjo player's vision, though. His first standalone instrumental (of two), 'Umbra', is minimalist and tender American primitivism which offsets the album's more rollicking turns. 'Ruby', a cover of a cover – Silver Apples via mid-century bluegrass favourite Cousin Emmy – is a brisk hoedown whose minor chords and non-trad tunings can't disguise an innate dust-kicking energy, yet it presently segues into 'In Kind I' and an improvised soup of Tony Conrad-ish string drone – later picked back up for reasonably titled penultimate track 'In Kind II'.
Then there are the parts where Bowles, McMurry and Toll are operating as a legit and weighted trio, none finer than on epic 'The Road Reversed'. Over nearly 11 minutes, it wends its way through hypnotic landscapes, verdant but calm; it thrums with the freedom of Can and the hillbilly microtonality of 75 Dollar Bill – a godly combo. That's not to take the shine off the mid-paced likes of 'Elk River Blues' or 'Fresh & Fairly So', which both have quite the Celtic lilt woven into their Appalachian picking and canyon-deep acoustic bass tones. With Plainly Mistaken, Nathan Bowles has stepped out of the Black Twig Pickers' shadow and demonstrated his vitality in forging new routes through old-timey music.

The games will be played at Havana's Pedro Marrero national stadium.The director of Nicaragua's women soccer team, Dalila Lopez, told Prensa Latina, that it was a great opportunity for both the teams to learn.
For the Nicaraguan team, this will be a great opportunity to learn techniques from their Caribbean counterparts, like warm up, discipline, physical tenor including speed and strength, which are distinct from the Central American players, Lopez stressed.
Lopez also affirmed that more than just sports, the visit to the Caribbean island's capital, Havana, is a great opportunity for the Nicaraguan delegation to learn about Cuba's rich history. The director stressed that it's important that the teams also have a pleasant experience.
The Nicaraguan team players have been working since ages 7 or 10, Lopez informed. Further adding that she hopes the experience is rewarding to their Cuban counterpart as well.
"They are the best we have of our players, physically they have done a good job that was the Achilles heel we had," Lopez told Prensa Latina, further adding that Fenifut, the Nicaraguan Football Federation has been supportive.
Lopez also praised media's efforts in bringing attention and increased viewership to the women's teams, like the 11th Central American Games held in Nicaragua in December, where the stadiums were filled to see women playing the sport.
Nicaragua's national team is preparing for the Olympic Qualifying Games of the Central American Football Union, to be held in June in Managua, as well as for the Central American and Caribbean Games, to be held in July in Barranquilla, Colombia.

Idaho-based Hecla Mining Co. booked a yearly increase in fourth-quarter 2019 silver and gold production and announced the ratification of a collective bargaining agreement at its Lucky Friday silver mine.
The company reported a 25% rise in silver production to 3.4 million ounces and a 5% growth in gold production to 74,773 ounces based on preliminary figures released Jan. 7.
Full-year 2019 silver production climbed 22% to 12.6 million ounces, and gold output improved 4% to a record 272,873 ounces. Silver equivalent output reached 47.2 Moz, and gold equivalent production totaled 549,172 ounces.
Hecla credited its strong cash flows in 2019 to record full-year silver production at its Greens Creek silver mine in Alaska and record total gold output for the year.
The company noted that its annual cash and cash equivalents reached about US$62 million as of Dec. 31, 2019, while its net debt was down 23% from June 30, 2018, to US$136 million.
Meanwhile, Hecla said it expects most of the workforce at Lucky Friday to return after the union ratified a new labor agreement and reversed the result of a vote in December 2019 rejecting the company's offer.
Ramp-up to full production is scheduled for late 2020. Operations at Lucky Friday have been crippled by a strike that began in March 2017. The company had planned to replace the striking workers before the union decided to ratify the deal.

Health Insurer Anthem Struck By Potential Largest Healthcare Related Data Breach in History
By Karen Painter Randall on 02.04.2015
On February 4, 2015, Anthem Inc., the second largest health insurer in America revealed that hackers broke into the company's servers and stole social security numbers and other personal information. This is a massive data breach with the potential to expose the information of nearly 80 million Anthem customers and has the potential to be the largest health care related data breach in history.
In an email, the company stated that they were the target of a very sophisticated external cyber-attack. The attackers gained unauthorized access to Anthem's IT system, and obtained personal information from their current and former members including their names, birthdays, medical IDs/social security numbers, street addresses, email addresses and employment information, including income data. However, Anthem advised that based upon the information known to date, there was no evidence that credit card or medical information (such as claims, test results or diagnostic codes) were targeted or compromised.
After discovering the data breach the company contacted law enforcement, and has stated that they are working with the FBI and cooperating in their investigation. The company says it will provide credit monitoring and identity protection services free of charge to those who have been affected. Furthermore, Anthem says it is conducting an extensive IT Forensic Investigation to determine which customers were impacted, and will notify all Anthem members who are impacted through a written communication.
Because no medical information was stolen it does not appear that Anthem will be subject to HIPAA. Nevertheless, this is the largest health care breach to date and another in a long line of breaches that continue to have a deep and disheartening effect on consumer behavior and the smooth flow of commerce both in the U.S. and worldwide.

Nov. 8, 2017 11:25 a.m.
Mounties have arrested a 15-year-old male student for posting threats against Cedar Community Secondary School in Nanaimo.
The incident was reported to the Nanaimo RCMP on Friday, Nov. 3 when the teen was arrested by officers with the Nanaimo RCMP School Liaison Unit and then released to the care of his parents.
It was determined that the school was safe for the return of students on Monday. District staff, school administration and the RCMP are continuing with an investigation.
School administrators and the Nanaimo RCMP School Liaison Unit will conduct a threat assessment of the incident, but according to police, at this point, investigators are satisfied the incident is confined to the one student and there is no risk to the school, staff or students of the school.
Const. Gary O'Brien, Nanaimo RCMP spokesman, said online threats by students are becoming more common and school liaison officers are also now tasked with educating students about the seriousness and consequences of making online threats.
Police did not detail the nature of the threat.
The student's release conditions restrict him from attending any school within School District 68. His first court appearance in Nanaimo provincial court is set for Jan. 18.

These are the 9 best universities in South Africa for academic performance
Home/Business Tech, Lifestyle/These are the 9 best universities in South Africa for academic performance
ShanghaiRanking Consultancy has published the 2020 Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), listing the top 1000 institutions globally – featuring 9 from South Africa.
The ARWU is one of several international league tables that are published throughout the year, assessing more than 1,800 universities on six key measures.
Alumni of an institution winning Nobel Prizes and Fields Medals – Alumni (10%)
Quality of Faculty – Staff of an institution winning Nobel Prizes and Fields Medals (20%)
Highly Cited Researchers (20%)
Papers published in Nature and Science (20%)
Papers indexed in Science Citation Index-Expanded and Social Science Citation Index (20%)
Per capita academic performance of an institution (10%)
Universities are ranked by several indicators of academic or research performance, including alumni and staff winning Nobel Prizes, highly cited researchers, papers published in Nature and Science, papers indexed in major citation indices, and the per capita academic performance of an institution.
Scores are determined in each field, weighted, and then balanced in relation to the top-perming university, which is assigned a value of 100. All subsequent scores are relative to the top university.
In 2020, Harvard is once again the top university, scoring a perfect 100 in every category except the per capita academic performance, where the California Institute of Technology came out on top.
South African universities
While the ARWU does not publish the overall scored for lower-ranked universities, it does make its full methodology known, along with all the stats it uses to calculate it.
For South African universities, it is then easy to determine how the local institutions rank relative to each other, even if their overall global placing is still only expressed in broad terms.
The 2020 ranking represents a significant shift for many of the listed local universities.
Wits tops the local ranking, over the University of Cape Town. The two universities are closely matched across all category scores, but Wits has double UCT's score in the category of highly cited research.
Stellenbosch University has also climbed the rankings, pushing past the University of Pretoria to now rank as the third best university in the country, according to these measures.
Overall, of the eight universities ranked in 2019, half improved their scores in 2020.
Those that saw improvements include Wits, Stellenbosch, the University of Johannesburg and North-West University.
UCT, UP, the University of KwaZulu Natal and Unisa saw their scores drop.
Rhodes University joins the 2020 ranking in ninth place, overall.
The table below outlines how South Africa's universities scored:
201-300 University of the Witwatersrand 15.9 16.3
201-300 University of Cape Town 17.6 15.3
401-500 Stellenbosch University 11.3 11.5
401-500 University of Pretoria 12.4 10.9
501-600 University of KwaZulu Natal 11.2 9.6
601-700 University of Johannesburg 8.7 9.0
601-700 North-West University 8.5 8.6
801-900 University of South Africa 7.2 7.0
901-1000 Rhodes University – 6.4

Outcomes Using the ORESTES technique, 22,585 portrayed series tags (ESTs) had been produced that matched up 3,387 genes. Despite normalization supplied by this technique (mean 4.6 ORESTES per gene), some transcribed genes highly, including that encoding dermokine, were overrepresented. About 330 portrayed genes displayed significantly less than 100 ESTs in UniGene clusters and so are most likely to become particular for GKs and possibly involved in hurdle function. This hypothesis was examined by evaluating the relative appearance of 73 genes in the basal and granular levels of epidermis by quantitative RT-PCR. Among these, 33 had been identified as brand-new, particular markers of GKs extremely, including those encoding a protease, protease proteins and inhibitors involved with lipid fat burning capacity and carry. We discovered filaggrin 2 (also known as ifapsoriasin), a characterized person in the epidermal differentiation complicated badly, aswell as three brand-new lipase genes clustered with paralogous genes on chromosome 10q23.31. A fresh gene of unidentified function, em C1orf81 /em , is certainly disrupted in the individual genome with a frameshift mutation specifically. Bottom line These data raise the present understanding of genes in charge of the forming of the skin hurdle and suggest brand-new applicants for genodermatoses of unidentified origin. History High-throughput genomic tasks concentrating on the id of cell- and tissue-specific transcriptomes are anticipated to discover fundamental insights into natural processes. Particularly interesting are genes in sequenced genomes that stay hypothetical and/or badly represented in portrayed sequence databases, and whose functions in disease and health stay unknown. A few of these are most implicated in organ-specific features probably. Their characterization is vital to comprehensive the annotation of sequenced genomes and it is expected to donate to developments in physiology and pathology. To be able to obtain such goals, transcriptome research on tissue than cultured cells rather, and eventually about the same cell type at an accurate differentiation step will provide brand-new information. The skin is an extremely specialized tissue generally focused on the establishment of the hurdle that restricts both drinking water loss from your body and ingress of pathogens. The hurdle function of the skin may involve the appearance of several tissue-specific genes, the majority of that are portrayed in the past due steps of keratinocyte differentiation particularly. To be able to create and keep maintaining this hurdle, keratinocytes go through a complex, extremely arranged and controlled differentiation program resulting in cornification and lastly to desquamation firmly. During this procedure, cells migrate in the basal, proliferative level to the top, where they type the cornified level (stratum corneum). Based on the current style of epidermis epithelial maintenance, basal keratinocytes encompass a heterogeneous cell people which includes slow-cycling stem cells [1]. These stem cells bring about transiently amplifying keratinocytes that constitute a lot of the basal level. They separate just a few times and move upward while differentiating to create the spinous layer finally. The proliferating area is seen as a the specific appearance of cell routine regulators and integrin family in charge of the connection of the skin to the basement membrane. Growth arrested keratinocytes undergo differentiation, mainly characterized by a shift in.(a) Expression pattern of the em C1orf81 /em gene. the amino acids of the catalytic triad are boxed. gb-2007-8-6-r107-S4.eps (1.8M) GUID:?56F7D014-8751-45D7-9140-CF8C6A207837 Additional data file 5 Gene nomenclature and IDs for five new mouse lipase genes. gb-2007-8-6-r107-S5.rtf (86K) GUID:?AD8B883C-56C6-42C5-A568-AAA8A3BE2C68 Abstract Background During epidermal differentiation, keratinocytes progressing through the suprabasal layers undergo complex and tightly regulated biochemical modifications leading to cornification and desquamation. The last living cells, the granular keratinocytes (GKs), produce almost all of the proteins and lipids required for the protective barrier function before their programmed cell death gives rise to corneocytes. We present here the first analysis of the transcriptome of human GKs, purified from healthy epidermis by an original approach. Results Using the ORESTES method, 22,585 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were produced that matched 3,387 genes. Despite normalization provided by this method (mean 4.6 ORESTES per gene), some highly transcribed genes, including that encoding dermokine, were overrepresented. About 330 expressed genes displayed less than 100 ESTs in UniGene clusters and are most likely to be specific for GKs and potentially involved in barrier function. This hypothesis was tested by comparing the relative expression of 73 genes in the basal and granular layers of epidermis by quantitative RT-PCR. Among these, 33 were identified Atorvastatin as new, highly specific markers of GKs, including those encoding a protease, protease inhibitors and proteins involved in lipid metabolism and transport. Atorvastatin We identified filaggrin 2 (also called ifapsoriasin), a poorly characterized member of the epidermal differentiation complex, as well as three new lipase genes clustered with paralogous genes on chromosome 10q23.31. A new gene of unknown function, em C1orf81 /em , is usually specifically disrupted in the human Atorvastatin genome by a frameshift mutation. Conclusion These data increase the present knowledge of genes responsible for the formation of the skin barrier and suggest new candidates for genodermatoses of unknown origin. Background High-throughput genomic projects focusing on the identification of cell- and tissue-specific transcriptomes are expected to uncover fundamental insights into biological processes. Particularly intriguing are genes in sequenced genomes that remain hypothetical and/or poorly represented in expressed sequence databases, and whose functions in health and disease remain unknown. Some of these are most probably implicated in organ-specific functions. Their characterization is essential to complete the annotation of sequenced genomes and is expected to contribute to advances in physiology and pathology. In order to achieve such goals, transcriptome studies on tissues rather than cultured cells, and eventually on a single cell type at a precise differentiation step are more likely to provide new information. The epidermis is a highly specialized tissue mainly dedicated to the establishment of a barrier that restricts both water loss from the body and ingress of pathogens. The barrier function of the epidermis is known to involve the expression of numerous tissue-specific genes, most of which are specifically expressed in the late actions of keratinocyte differentiation. In order to establish and constantly maintain this barrier, keratinocytes undergo a complex, highly organized and tightly controlled differentiation program leading to cornification and finally to desquamation. During this process, cells migrate from the basal, proliferative layer to the surface, where they form the cornified layer (stratum corneum). According to the current model of skin epithelial maintenance, basal keratinocytes encompass a heterogeneous cell population that includes slow-cycling stem cells [1]. These stem cells give rise to transiently amplifying keratinocytes that constitute most of the basal layer. They divide only a few times and finally move upward while differentiating to form the spinous layer. The proliferating compartment is characterized by the specific expression of cell cycle regulators and integrin family members responsible for the attachment of the epidermis to the basement membrane. Growth arrested keratinocytes undergo differentiation, mainly characterized by a shift in cytokeratin expression from KRT5 (keratin 5) and KRT14 in the basal layer to KRT1 and KRT10 in suprabasal layers. As differentiation progresses, keratinocytes from the spinous layers progressively express a small number of specific differentiation markers, like involucrin. However, the differentiation program culminates in the granular layer, where keratinocytes express more than 30 epidermis-specific proteins, including proteins that are stored in cytosolic granules characteristic of granular keratinocytes (GKs). These proteins include well known components of.

National Indigenous Peoples Day June 21
Bychristinajager	 June 20, 2020
Westfield's Conservation Area will be open on Sunday, and while we are not hosting our usual Father's Day activities, you can come for a hike on the trails or walk on the Village grounds. Visitors can see the outside of the historic buildings, but not go inside them. Our picnic area is open as well as the washrooms. Admission is $15.00 per car load or use your Hamilton Conservation Authority Membership for touchless entry.
We also would like to recognize National Indigenous Peoples Day which is celebrated in Canada each year on June 21. This is an official day to recognize and honour the culture, heritage and valuable contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.
While this day now seems to many an obvious, and in many ways, modest way to recognize the contributions of the Indigenous Peoples of our country, the creation of an official day of recognition took many years to come to fruition. In 1982, the National Indian Brotherhood (now the Assembly of First Nations) first proposed a national "Aboriginal Solidarity Day." It would be another eight years before Quebec became the first province to set aside June 21 as a day to celebrate Indigenous culture. The summer solstice holds important symbolism for many Indigenous cultures and this date seemed particularly fitting. Calls for a national day of recognition were renewed in the mid-90s. In 1996, a meeting of Indigenous and non-Indigenous spiritual leaders, known as The Sacred Assembly, encouraged the federal government to establish "National First People's Day" as a day of unity and acknowledgement. In that same year, the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples made a similar recommendation. Finally, on June 13, 1996, these and similar efforts would culminate in Governor General Romeo LeBlanc's announcement that Canada would celebrate its first National Aboriginal Day on June 21, 1996.
In 2009, Parliament declared the month of June "National Aboriginal History Month" (now Indigenous History Month) to highlight Indigenous histories, cultures and contemporary issues. In 2017, National Aboriginal Day was renamed "National Indigenous Peoples Day," reflecting a national and international preference for the term Indigenous. There is growing support for a national statutory holiday and for the creation of a National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

This sandbox is meant to be the easiest way to get started with the SynchroniCity Framework. It helps you download and install the latest version, with examples that demonstrate how powerful it can be.
In order to make the deployment as easy and quick as possible, the platform architecure was defined with a container deployment approach using Docker compose.
Deployment works best on UNIX type environments such as Linux or MacOS. Support on Microsoft Windows is experimental, and should be avoided. Linux is the only recommended OS for production.
The SynchroniCity project has made pre-configured versions of its components that you can play with out of the box. Of course you can customise this when the need arises, but getting started could not be easier.
or if you do not have git installed you can browse to the GitLab website and download a zip file containing the code from here.
Then you need to change to the latest available branch of the code, and navigate to the docker compose files. This can be accomplished with the following commands.
The structure of files in the project is as follows.
To download all the required docker images from all the docker compose files, simply use the docker-compose pull command as demonstrated below.
We will not cover the security framework in the getting started tutorial, so downloading it is not nessecary for the sandbox.
There are some optional extra's that might improve your experience, but they are not required to follow the tutorial.
In the examples on the pages that follow, many commands against the system will be done using cURL. The output will most often be of type JSON which havs been run through a 'beautifier'. The one used to generate the output is https://stedolan.github.io/jq/. Follow the link for detailed installation guides.
To use jq, you can simply add | jq . to the end of the cURL examples, and the JSON will be formatted in a human readable format by piping it into jq. The example below will not work yet, as we havent started the services, it is just to show how you can optionally use jq to make the output more readable.
curl http://localhost:8082/v1/stats | jq .

Scrapes Concordia's publicly accessible [course scheduling system](https://campus.concordia.ca/psc/pscsprd/EMPLOYEE/HRMS/c/CU_EXT.CU_CLASS_SEARCH.GBL) and outputs information about each section in JSON.

# Installation
The scraper requires CasperJS. It's tested to work with CasperJS 1.1.1 and PhantomJS 2.1.1.

# Usage
    $ casperjs concordia.js --semester="Fall 2016" --course=COMP [--code=218 [--number=1796]]

`--semester` is the semester the course takes place in. Seems to follow the format of "_season_ _year_"

`--course` is the course subject

`--code` is the course number. It's optional, if you omit it you'll get back all courses that are part of the subject

`--number` is the class number that uniquely identifies a section. Also optional

# Output
More or less outputs the data exactly how you'd find it on Concordia's site.

The only computed attribute for each `section` is `status`, which is one of: `open`, `waitlist`, `closed`.

```json
{
	"courses": [
		{
			"name": "COMP  218 - Fundamentals of Programming",
			"sections": [
				{
					"class": "1796",
					"instructor": "Nancy Acemian",
					"section": "EC-LEC  13 Wk",
					"status": "open",
					"term": "Fall 2016",
					"time": "TBA"
				},
				{
					"class": "7381",
					"instructor": "Nancy Acemian",
					"section": "ECEA-TUT  13 Wk",
					"status": "open",
					"term": "Fall 2016",
					"time": "Tu 5:45PM - 7:25PM"
				},
				{
					"class": "7382",
					"instructor": "Nancy Acemian",
					"section": "ECEB-TUT  13 Wk",
					"status": "open",
					"term": "Fall 2016",
					"time": "Th 10:15AM - 11:55AM"
				}
			]
		}
	],
	"status": "success"
}
```

If there's an error, the `status` attribute will reflect that.
```json
{
	"status": "error",
	"message": "Failed to load class list"
}
```

BioWare Montreal is dead and absorbed by EA Motive
One of Zombie Bioware's limbs has just been absorbed by EA Motive. BioWare Montreal's creative and technological distinctiveness will be adapted to service EA. The studio's existence, as you know it, is now over. Resistance is unprofitable.
As with all zombies, Zombie BioWare won't truly die until its nervous system is rendered inoperable. A short while after the release of Mass Effect: Andromeda, I put together a little piece in honour of the now dead and very zombified New Bioware. Cries of "pure speculation" and "ur just bashing BioWare for no reason" followed.
Fast-forward 5 months, and BioWare Montreal is no more. The studio is now part of EA Motive and working on Battlefront 2 as well as another unannounced Star Wars game.
YouTube Mass Effect: Andromeda - Feel the burn
"The teams in EA Worldwide Studios are packed with talent, and more than ever, we're driving collaboration between studios on key projects. With multiple major projects in development in Montreal, we are merging BioWare Montreal with Motive Studios. This is an ongoing process, but there are many exciting roles and opportunities for everyone on the team", is the way EA described the initial phase of assimilation back in May.
Let me filter out the PR-speak for you real quick:
"The teams in EA are packed, more than ever. We're driving studios on projects. With projects in development, we are merging BioWare Montreal with EA. This is a process, and there are many roles for everyone."
There, that's more like it.
TweakTown BioWare
EA has addressed its shareholders recently. The report never outright states any figures regarding Andromeda's performance, but generally praises the game as a contributor to growth in several aspects of EA's business. The publishing giant got what it wanted out of BioWare Montreal - a quick buck supported by BioWare's brand, along with a field test of Frostbite and various multiplayer/microtransaction systems for the upcoming Anthem. Why else do you think Andromeda only got multiplayer DLC, with only minor fixes to the singleplayer?
What is currently left of BioWare is now working on Anthem and Star Wars games. Star Wars is always a safe bet from a money perspective, and once the hype-machine gets to grinding for Anthem there will be little chance of the game failing as far as EA is concerned. Zombie BioWare lumbers on.

Public consultation on the draft ECB Regulation on infringement procedures in cases of non-compliance with statistical reporting requirements and repealing Decision (ECB/2010/10)
The European Central Bank (ECB) has finalised its review of the ECB Regulation on infringement procedures in cases of non-compliance with statistical reporting requirements and repealing Decision (ECB/2010/10).
The reviewed Regulation, published on 10 October 2022, establishes a harmonised framework for monitoring compliance with statistical reporting requirements, across different statistical domains and reporting frequencies and assessing procedures for alleged infringements in cases of non-compliance. This ensures transparency and the equal treatment of reporting agents. The revised Regulation also clearly defines the roles of all stakeholders involved in the process and the responsibilities among competent authorities when assessing an infringement procedure.
The draft ECB Regulation underwent a public consultation from 23rd June to 4th of September 2021 after the European Parliament was informed in June 2021.
During this process comments were received from one interested party. A general assessment of these comments was prepared, and they were given the greatest possible consideration.

Service announcements on the London Underground are to include the words of great thinkers such as Gandhi, Albert Einstein and Jean-Paul Sartre.
Turner Prize-nominated artist Jeremy Deller has compiled a list of quotations to be used by Tube drivers.
The phrases will be included in communications with passengers on the network's Piccadilly Line.
The initiative is said to be an attempt to make travelling on the Underground more enjoyable and thought-provoking.
The Tube system already has Poems on the Underground, launched in 1986, featuring written verse on advertising space inside carriages.
London Underground also has a long tradition of promoting art on the network, dating back more than a century.
And earlier this year novels were loaned out free to commuters outside five Tube stations.

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. Today I have a great new product to share with you guys. I have an extremely hard time applying eyeliner and I have a product that I think will fix that issue. I may have the most steady hands when it comes to painting my nails, or anything else for that matter, but when it is time to put anything near my eye… well my hands and lid become the most trembling thing ever! With the new ZuZu Luxe Liquid Liner I had a much easier time applying along my lash line, I dare not to attempt anything wing right now.
One of the reasons why I felt the ZuZu Luxe was easier than some is due to the handle, it was almost like holding a calligraphy pen. The soft felt like head was easy to control and the liquid liner was not to thin but not to thick. I did have a few little smudges due to my shaky hands but a quick swipe of coconut oil and things were looking much smoother. The liner is a mineral based blend that is both 100% vegan and cruelty free which are all huge pluses in my book. The ZuZu Luxe Liquid Liner is available in two new fantastic shades, Storm is a navy blue and Amethyst is a shimmery purple, plus tons of other great shades.
I really loved Storm for it's subtle coloring and Amethyst would be great for that extra pop of color. I certainly look forward to playing with this liner more and hopefully perfecting my liner application.
So what are your helpful tips for liner? I think as the old saying goes, practice makes perfect and now that I have a liner I can actually work with that is exactly what I am going to do. Be sure to check out the ZuZu Luxe Liquid Liner from Gabriel Cosmetics plus tons of other great goodies. When you share your Zuzu Luxe Liquid Liner looks use the hashtag #LineItUp for all to see. Thank you so much for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing you all again tomorrow.
These products were sent to me for review purposes but that does not influence my final opinion.

Q: Django Admin Search Field CheckBox Is there a standard way in Django Admin to add a checkbox next to the search to select (at runtime) on what field to search on?
I know there is the AdminModel attribute search_fields = ['one_field', 'other_field'] etc. But for this project I am in need to select one field at the time.
Any idea welcome! Thanx!

A: Django Admin doesn't provide custom checkbox for search fields but you can implement a similar functionality by overriding the django search. You can use prefix based searching.
Code Sample
class UserTimelineAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ('user_screen_name','user_name', 'created_at',)
    search_fields = ['user_screen_name','user_name']

    def get_search_results(self, request, queryset, search_term):
        new_queryset, use_distinct = super().get_search_results(request, queryset, search_term)

This is done to avoid the errors on using list filters with search field filters.

A: From the docs:
The default implementation searches the fields named in ModelAdmin.search_fields.
This method may be overridden with your own custom search method. For example, you might wish to search by an integer field, or use an external tool such as Solr or Haystack. You must establish if the queryset changes implemented by your search method may introduce duplicates into the results, and return True in the second element of the return value.
For example, to enable search by integer field, you could use:
class PersonAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ('name', 'age')
    search_fields = ('name',)

    def get_search_results(self, request, queryset, search_term):
        queryset, use_distinct = super(PersonAdmin, self).get_search_results(request, queryset, search_term)
        try:
            search_term_as_int = int(search_term)
        except ValueError:
            pass
        else:
            queryset |= self.model.objects.filter(age=search_term_as_int)

J.M. Barrie's classic story about the boy who refused to grow up first appeared on the London stage 100 years ago. Done countless times in the theater, and to great fame by Mary Martin in the 50's, the story was brought to the movie screen, first, in 1924, and recently made as a sequel in Disney's "Return to Neverland." Now, a brand new live action feature comes to a big screen near you and, once again, we are told the story of "Peter Pan." Robin: I think everyone over the age of three must know the story of Peter Pan, Wendy, Captain Hook and all. But, this is the first time, in almost 80 years, that the story has received live action treatment. (Well, some might consider Steven Spielberg's overblown "Hook" as live action Peter Pan, but I'm not one of them.) In this new rendition of the classic fairytale Jeremy Sumpter (the younger brother in 2002's "Frailty") is Peter Pan, who spies on Wendy Darling (Rachel Hurd-Wood) and loves to listen to her stories as much as her brothers, John (Harry Newell) and Michael (Freddie Popplewell). But, Mr. Darling (Jason Isaacs) has decreed that she must stop telling her stories and grow up. This edict is wonderful news for Peter. One night, Pan convinces Wendy to join him and the Lost Boys in Neverland where pirates, Indians, malicious mermaids, a monster-size crocodile and a whole bunch of adventures await. With the help of some fairy dust from his sidekick, Tinker Bell (Ludivine Sagnier), Peter shows Wendy and her brothers how to fly and they set off for the stars. This is all familiar territory as the five travelers set down on the island where Captain Hook (Jason Isaacs) and his gang of thieves plot their vengeance against their nemesis, Peter Pan. Director P.J. Hogan marshals the lavish, F/X laden production along at a fairly leisurely pace with lots of film time spent talking about all the adventures the children will face. (I would rather that more time be spent on the actual adventures.) This version of the Peter Pan tale is more a youthful love story than action/adventure flick with a disturbingly sensually full-lipped Wendy saving a hidden kiss for macho, swaggering Peter. Helmer Hogan is so intent on this youthful romance that the adventure saga often takes a back seat. I'm not sure I like the screenplay, by Hogan and Michael Goldenberg, introducing young sexual allure in a children's film like "Peter Pan." The action part of "Peter Pan" is serviceable enough with Jason Isaacs putting the right note of menace and comedy on his Captain Hook character. The actor also serves as the milquetoast patriarch of the Darling family but has the most fun as Hook. The other characters from Barrie's story - Smee (Richard Briers) and the rest of Hook's cutthroat crew; the Lost Boys; Princess Tiger Lily; the clock-swallowing croc - are presented without much development or depth. While watching "Peter Pan" I kept remembering Disney's recent "Return to Neverland" that did a better job of fleshing out the supporting characters and had more adventure, even if it is just a sequel Production techs are fine all around with the special effects, such as Peter's flying, done well and pretty seamlessly. Scripters Hogan and Goldenberg do some other embellishing with the original Pan story, adding Aunt Millicent (Lynn Redgrave) to the Darling family and coming to politically correct closure with the Lost Boys. "Peter Pan," if the screening audience (mostly kids) is any indication, should fit the bill for families with younger kids seeking suitable entertainment during the holiday season. Maybe the latent sexual allure is an attempt to get to the older kids. It doesn't work for me. I give it a C+.
Mr. and Mrs. Darling (Jason Isaacs, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" and Olivia Williams, "The Heart of Me") provide a uniquely creative home for their three children. The eldest, Wendy (Rachel Hurd-Wood), spins stories for younger brothers John (Harry Newell) and Michael (Freddie Popplewell) which all three play act. However, when their Saint Bernard nursemaid Nana (Rebel) embarrasses Mr. Darling in front of his boss, Wendy's childhood is declared over. That night, she's given one last fairy tale adventure by the little boy who refuses to grow up and has been listening to her stories all along from outside their second floor window, "Peter Pan." Director P.J. Hogan ("Muriel's Wedding, "My Best Friend's Wedding") goes back to J.M. Barrie's play and novel ("Peter and Wendy") to create the first literary, live action version of "Peter Pan." For the first time ever, the title character is portrayed by a little boy (Jeremy Sumpter ("Frailty"), and Hogan introduces a subtle eroticism which gives "Pan's" theme additional complexity for adult viewers which should fly over the heads of children. "Peter Pan" is kept from truly soaring, however, by a stiff performance from newcomer Hurd-Wood and some garish visual effects. Aunt Millicent (Lynn Redgrave, "Gods and Monsters," playing a character created by Hogan) makes the observation that Wendy is no longer a child, alarming Mr. Darling with the suggestion. Auntie points out 'a kiss in the right hand corner of her mouth' that is waiting to be bestowed upon the right young man. At school, Wendy's teacher discovers a drawing she has made of herself in bed with a winged boy hovering above like a succubus. Alarmed, the teacher sends a letter to Mr. Darling at his place of work, which Wendy and Nana attempt to intercept. After the resulting scene, Mr. Darling divests Nana of her vocational cap and declares the day Wendy's last in the nursery. That evening, Pan returns, charms Wendy by declaring one girl worth twenty boys and coaxes the Darling children to Neverland with promises of flight, pirates and Indians. The filmmakers have a lot of fun with Peter's unattached shadow, which taunts Aunt Millicent before Wendy has a chance to sew it onto the boy who can fly. Director of Photography Donald McAlpine ("Moulin Rouge") captures Pan floating outside of the nursery window with a vampiric eroticism that is as unsettling as it is magical. The children's trip to Neverland, though, finds them speeding amongst planets that look like a child's paper mache mobile painted in neons and the cloud they land in to observe Hooks ship is too brightly colored. Hook's ship, however, is delightful, initially mired in ice like Shackleton's Endurance. Hogan and Production designer Roger Ford ("Babe") also excel with creepy, blue/white mermaids who look like something out of a Korean horror film and a crocodile realistic in every way except its gargantuan size. Hogan, who did a rewrite of Michael Goldenberg's ("Contact") adaptation (they share screenwriting credits), brings Pan's themes of abandoning childhood squarely to the forefront in his version without sacrificing fun and adventure. Peter and Wendy set up house as father and mother to the lost boys and Pan brings Wendy to see the dance of the Fairy King and Queen before leading her into a duet of their own. Before Wendy bestows her kiss (the actress may have been chosen for her ripe lips alone), younger brother John gets one of his own from Princess Tigerlily (Carson Daly), which turns him bright pink. The same actor who plays the father pushing Wendy into adulthood reappears as Captain Hook, Pan's worst enemy. Wendy is pleased by her incarnation as 'Red Handed Jill,' the storyteller to a shipful of adult men, before learning of Hook's poison of 'jealousy, malice and disappointment.' Pan taunts Hook with the noise of a ticking clock before the children more blatantly tell him that he's old and done. Humor abounds with inventions like a peg-legged parrot and Indian rites to heal a warrior restoring Michael's beheaded teddybear. The siren of "Swimming Pool," Ludivine Sagnier, delivers a delightfully clownish Tink and Richard Briers ("Love's Labour's Lost," the British series "Good Neighbors") is an endearing Smee. Young Sumpter gives a lively performance as Pan and is physically adept as well, smoothly acing many scenes of suspended flight. Isaacs is well cast in the dual roles of Hook and Wendy's father, playing both straight with a gravity that balances out the film's lighter aspects - and this Hook gets to fly as well. Hurd-Wood pastes a smile across her face whenever appropriate but never achieves any real character for Wendy. Olivia Williams is radiant as the motherly ideal and Redgrave adds a nice mix of British whimsy as the elder aunt. P.J. Hogan's "Peter Pan" resists generic safety and emerges as a family film that tells a story worth repeating.
