Elsewhere, Oncolytics Biotech Inc. (Nasdaq) jumped 23 cents, or 14%, to $1.86. The company said it had completed an initial production run of Reolysin, a potential cancer therapeutic. The treatment is based on a human reovirus and is designed to target and destroy cancer cells, either alone or combined with radiation or chemotherapy. "Reolysin is a cancer therapeutic but it is different than all the other drugs that are out there and being developed," said Reni Benjamin, an analyst at Rodman & Renshaw. "This is still a product being evaluated in clinical trials but there is some potential for this product as a therapy," Benjamin said. "With the clinical results reported to date and the expected initiation of our pivotal program this year, keeping pace with the manufacturing process is critical," said Dr. Matt Coffey, chief operating officer of Oncolytics. Oncolytics' clinical program includes a variety of Phase 1 and Phase 2 human trials using Reolysin.

In a previous blog, I admitted my ignorance of nursing science during both my early diploma nursing education, and at least the first 18 years of my nursing practice. But in the mid 1980s, I became aware of an increasing trend in Toronto area hospitals to adopt nursing theoretical frameworks. Long after the fact, I also learned there had been nursing theory conferences held in Toronto around that time and set out to learn about those conferences, the experiences of the nursologists who attended, and with those in other provinces to discover other such events or activities. What I found far exceeded what could be captured in 1 blog and yet I know I have barely scratched the surface! My purpose here is first to thank everyone who has been so generous in sharing their time and archival documents (which will eventually be included in the Landmark Events section of the History tab of this website), and second, to invite nursologists from across Canada to add to my limited findings with what I'm sure is a wealth of information.
The critique, comparison, and explication of nursing theories by Canadian nursing scholars.
Many of the prominent nursing theorists of the time participated in the 1986 conference, including Dickoff and James, Imogene King, Myra Levine, Betty Neuman, Rosemary Parse, Martha Rogers, and Sister Callista Roy. Some returned for the 1988 Toronto conference and notable additions for this conference included Virginia Henderson and Jean Watson.
participant in both nursing theory and NANDA conferences and, has generously provided proceedings from the 2 Toronto conferences as well as from many of the NANDA conferences. Those proceedings are in the process of digitization and will be added to this website in the near future. Information about the other 3 conferences would be a great addition, as would information about any other Canadian nursing theory conferences.
Dorothea tells the story of meeting Virginia Henderson at a reception at the 1988 conference and telling her about her work in advocating for poverty reduction. Dorothea had prepared a resolution for the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO), arguing that poverty was a health issue and urged RNAO to lobby for poverty reduction at the provincial and federal levels. The resolution was passed and promptly acted upon by RNAO. Dr. Henderson enthusiastically supported Dorothea's actions and asked her to send her a copy of the resolution, which she did. In return she received she received a letter in which she says she is encouraged by Dorothea's efforts in "trying to do something about basic problems in society like poverty. We too often in the States leave this to others thinking that if we do our particular work well that we have fulfilled our role in society." The handwritten letter, its transcribed content, and a brief statement of context have been framed and hang in the York University School of Nursing.

Top Digital Marketing Trends 2020 in India – What does the future behold?
Brand & Design, Social Beat News, Social Media Marketing
The year 2019 has been a whirlwind in terms of growth in the digital space. The number of internet users has gone up to a number that was previously unprecedented – from 483 million users in the year 2018, India has now crossed half a billion internet users at a whopping 566 million. This means brands and companies have a whole new audience to market to and multiple innovative ways to do so! If you are keen to learn more about digital marketing, do check out our digital marketing training arm, DigiGrad.
Here are 7 digital marketing trends for 2020 that we expect will see the most traction:
The rise of new social platforms
While user growth has slowed down across most key markets, India has shown no such trend. This is a direct result of easy accessibility to mobile internet and cheaper smartphones with the advent of Jio. This has consequently led to the huge influx of new social apps in digital markets, like TikTok, Helo, Sharechat, Vigo, Bigo, Firework and some more in the pipeline.
The year 2020 will likely see a rise of even more such apps as these have proved to be a hit with new data users, having tapped into vernacular content and the interests of people in smaller towns. And since a large chunk of internet users from rural India – 251 million to be precise – have contributed to the growth in the total number of Indian internet users this year, 2020 can expect to see a higher demand for social apps that cater to this demographic.
It also doesn't hurt that these media conglomerates have figured out a key factor in driving growth – offering social apps with access to entertainment like short-videos, gaming and live-streaming. 2019 has already seen these newer social apps climb the rankings on Google's Android PlayStore, with TikTok ranking number one, and Helo at a close second. Facebook currently holds the third position, which may indicate that the dominance the Facebook family of apps has had may see a negative impact.
Vernacular will go mainstream for brands
On that note, with so many first-time internet users, the rise of a lot of social platforms have seen their tremendous growth simply because they offer their content and services in vernacular. Language-driven services have had such an impact this year, that even Amazon and Flipkart are planning to get on this bandwagon soon to catch up with new age players like niki.ai, bulbul tv and Shop101. With a higher demand for vernacular content online, brands across segments will be forced to explore and deliver too if they want to see bigger growth. Storytelling is an impactful way to engage and connect with customers, and when done in a native tongue, the outcome is very personal and unique. This is evident in the thumbstopper format that Facebook offers, which intends to tell a story without sound, in order to capture the essence of a story and be able to tell it to speakers of any language.
Featured below are the thumbstopper videos we did in collaboration with Malabar Gold to promote their 'Men in Platinum' collection. The campaign dismantles stereotypical gender roles and highlights the fact that men are at their best when they are in their element. With an overall reach of 13 lakh views across Facebook, Instagram and Youtube, the brand's Facebook page witnessed a 450% increase in user engagement proving that relatability is a language in itself.
Speaking about breaking language barriers, Swiggy recently ran a campaign titled #SwiggyStarhunt – a platform for delivery partners to showcase their talent by uploading videos on popular video-sharing app TikTok. These videos come under the categories of acting, dancing, singing and musical instruments. Since the campaign was targeted at delivery partners, we created a robust social media strategy in 11 languages to grab their attention and encourage them to participate in the event. The campaign resulted in an outpour of uploads onto the video-sharing app, with a whopping 44+ million organic views, reaching a pan-Indian audience and giving Swiggy the uplift it deserved. #SwiggyStarhunt is also a testament to the fact that leveraging new social media platforms like TikTok, along with the relatability of vernacular content, is a great way to connect with consumers.
AR will pick up momentum
4G has taken India's markets by storm, and Indian service providers are eager to capitalize on this moment to drive user and customer engagement. Augmented Reality can be used in a multitude of ways, changing experiences across different sectors, be it retail, live events, museums, real estate, education or automobile.
Facebook introduced Spark AR this year for the general public, which allows users on Facebook and Instagram to create filters and upload them online. Other users can then save these and apply them to their stories. Facebook has been seeing a lot of success with the launch of this product and this will probably 'spark' AR trends even more. Google had already rolled out Google Lens which is an image recognition technology that uses the point and shoot feature to show fitting search results. These two giants have showcased the diversity in the use of AR and how successful it can be when implemented right, driven by function.
VR will also start to pick up more as we enter 2020, but since VR devices are still too expensive for the Indian market, it is unlikely that it will pick up at the same pace as AR will.
Voice will also start driving e-commerce
E-commerce is the way of the future, and with search interaction having increased, leading companies will find voice a profitable technology to drive sales and revenue. This has already been evidenced in the huge investment Amazon has put into Alexa and Google into Google Home and its Google Assistant. Businesses will see voice user interface as an innovative tool that enables faster, more efficient customer engagement as voice commands surround every sphere of life, driving purchases, payments and more. Voice ordering, already a popular phenomenon in the US, will start picking up in India as well. Brands are also tying up with new-age start-ups like niki.ai to engage with the next billion internet users. These AI powered start-ups build user experiences that are not just intuitive but also in a language that the customers in the Tier II and III cities are comfortable in, making it easy for them to place orders using voice commands.
Looking for a few tips on voice search marketing? Here's our tell-all guide:
Better audience targeting through AI and first-party data
It's quality over quantity, always. Which is why many brands are now wanting to capitalize on their first-party data, instead of opting for second and third-party data. First-party data allows for exact, valuable insights into a customer's direct engagement with the brand, whether it's their individual interests, which ads they engage with, or how much time they spend on the brand's website. This information is unfiltered, specific, and relevant, which helps to build an audience profile that is an exact match with the product or service in question. It is also cost-effective, as it's free, and is lawful and transparent. Nike is one such company which has already announced that they will be selling only directly going forward.
Artificial intelligence fits into this equation as it can prove to be extremely beneficial in sifting through these data sets, which for a team of actual people, can be daunting. AI could uncover insights that could have been missed otherwise, identify critical data and trends, and all at unmatched speed with extreme accuracy. Thus, AI and first-party data may hand-in-hand serve to drive more personalized communication soon.
Influencer marketing will have a rocky 2020
Social media platforms have seen quite a few changes this year, which were a little surprising for everyone. At one end, there are platforms like TikTok and Sharechat, which incentivized influencers, and at the other end, Instagram rolled out an update that removed the like count. The Advertising Standards Council of India has also announced that they are framing new guidelines and rules in a bid to protect consumer interests, which will include influencer marketing under its purview. With the aim to curb forms of misleading information, the reach influencers have, the kind of information they put out, and the engagement brands have with influencers may all change in 2020.
Online to Offline Attribution will be more prevalent
It is commonly believed that as the world became increasingly digital over the years, physical stores began to see less engagement. But this doesn't hold true for brands that rely heavily on location, like hotels, restaurants, and auto dealerships. For such brands, online to offline attribution is extremely relevant and useful, as this metric helps brands to trace and identify which online ads can be attributed to driving in-store foot traffic.
While Google Store Visits is already live and being used across brands, other platforms will also start leveraging location data, combined with first party and CRM data, to showcase what results digital is driving for retailers and offline stores. This can be a game changer for traditional brands that did not have digital as a key aspect of their marketing campaigns. The start of the next decade will likely see a lot of brands who are not yet using digital come online to use this tool to engage with customers better and drive sales insightfully.
Store visit ads were an integral part of our campaign with retailers like Malabar Gold, Khadims and Specsmakers. We leverage a mix of Google products using detailed demographic targetting as well as geo-fence the retail stores. The ads used online to offline attribution data to measure the increase in footfall to their stores. The below case study of Malabar Gold showcases how thousands of shoppers were targetted and tracked, for the recent Brides of India campaign.
All that being said, the trends predicted show a range of exciting opportunities to be used for growth. We at Social Beat are definitely eager to see what the start of the new decade has in store for the digital marketing sector and are excited to grow with it, scaling new heights.

My Internship Experience At Social Beat : Harsha
Internship is the most stressful period in any student's college life, but my experience with Social Beat has changed the whole mindset of it. I joined Social Beat three months back and I have learnt a lot in this period. In these three months, I have not only learnt about HR functions but also how to handle people around you.
The team is very welcoming and they always give the opportunity to learn and implement your subject. The culture of the organization is very different from other organizations where I have interned; they have a very warm and energizing environment. This helps any intern to explore the subject as well as their other interests.
The HR team with whom I interned always treated me as one of their team members and did not hesitate to teach or to assign any task. The team is very supportive and helps you to learn and understand your subject. They always give you space to work according to your preference and also gives you the liberty to learn from your mistakes. The team makes sure that your style is exhibited in your work and does not restrict you to work in a particular manner. When I compare my previous internships with the present one, I can see myself learning a lot in terms of my subject.
The team always encourages their interns to think out of the box, and helps them to act upon it. They are always open for any discussion, which can be with anyone from the team. They have freely adopted an open door policy, where everyone is approachable including the founders. In fact, I'd say Social Beat is the perfect example for exhibiting open door policy. This has helped me interact with different team members, and have an insight on digital marketing as well.
This internship is a valuable one as I have learnt to prioritize my work, be independent, and also pay attention to my values and follow them. I am thankful for this internship opportunity and it has been a great experience working at Social Beat.

ISLAMABAD: A large number of students and faculty members of Yusra Medical and Dental College Islamabad and Continental Medical College Lahore on Monday held a protest outside the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) against the closure of their colleges.
"We are shocked because of the decision of the council as second and third year exams are to be held after a month. The students of final year will appear in their exam after two months. If the closure of the colleges was necessary we should have been sent to other colleges at the start of the session. Now we fear that other colleges may not accept us or they will tell us to repeat the session due to which our one year would be lost. Moreover, the new colleges can demand extra amount from us," Hunain Faheem, a student of final year from the CMCL, told Dawn.
After the inspections of both the colleges, the PMDC recently closed them and directed the students to inform about the colleges in which they wanted to be sent. The students have been informed that they would have to complete their education in other registered medical colleges.
The decision to close the colleges was made after an investigation by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) about colleges which were registered during the tenure of Dr Asim Hussain as the PMDC president in 2010.
There were allegations that the colleges were registered after getting bribes.
Mr Faheem said: "We spent whole day here protesting against the decision of the council. Though PMDC Registrar Dr Waseem Hashmi assured us that he would look into the issue but we were not given any assurance in writing. After a day-long protest we have decided to go back and return again after deciding our future line of action," he said.
President Parents Council at the Yusra Medical College Dr Imran Khattak told the protesters that the college was closed without giving any notice.
"It is unfortunate that no one is willing to listen to our point of view. Even students were not given an opportunity to give their input over the issue and their future has been put on a stake. We want justice and will continue our struggle for it," he said.
A few days ago, the PMDC registrar told Dawn that the decision of the council to adjust the affected students in other colleges would secure and streamline their future.

In the first of its articles for Your Hidden Potential, alternative invoice finance provider MarketInvoice examines the scourge of the business owner, late payments and provides some advice on how to avoid them and ensure prompt payment.
Late payments are one area that MarketInvoice has particular expertise in managing. The online invoice finance platform MarketInvoice facilitates helps growing small and medium sized enterprises deal with long payment terms from blue-chip customers. We are a solution to the problem of late payment but not non-payment. This problem is worse in periods of uncertainty – for example, the eurozone crisis – can often trigger a push by large corporates to lengthen payment terms.
Here is some sound advice to ensure prompt payment and help you maintain positive, flexible cash flow.
It may be a cliché but it pays to have a good relationship with your client or a representative of that business, such as the FD. That way it will be easier to sort out payment terms and chase any outstanding payments. Just always make sure you don't let any frustration at a late payment sour these relationships. One problem is that small business owners cannot risk offending their biggest and most important client by ringing up and being terse with the person on the other end of the phone.
By agreeing terms in advance, strategically you can pre-empt cashflow fluctuations and decide on something that suits your business growth plan, maybe even it up in a cheeky contract (if your opposite number agrees.) Of course, some blue chip customers will insist on extremely long payment terms that are standard across the business. If entering into a relationship with exceptionally long payment terms – 90 days is not unusual with supermarkets or high street retailers, for example. It may be worth trying to negotiate a price discount with your client in exchange for faster payment terms. This way, you trade some of your profit margin for prompt, reliable payment. But do be careful to assess different options. Many large customers will ask for rebates for early payment of invoices – if these are 5% or more, you will need to weigh this up with the cost of monthly funding – as this might be a cheaper alternative.
Anything that slows the payment process or distracts from it could lead to serious problems. It cannot be stressed enough that organisation is paramount. The faster that the billing department generates invoices and sends them to the customer after a product or service is delivered the sooner payment will be received. As obvious as this may be, too many companies will perform such work in batches and it may take them a week or more to invoice their customers. Checkout electronic invoicing and payment tools options that can further speed up the payment process.
Errors in invoicing are a great contributor to long payment cycles. Quoted prices might not match up with master data, and invoices might not include the all-important purchase order number, which leads to an invalidated invoice that might be disputed by the customer. Analysis of such errors can uncover the failures that are driving such mistakes. Simplifying payment terms and controlling other sources of complexity can limit the opportunities for error. Of course, if the client or customer still refuses to pay, that's a completely different issue.
corporates, this kind of negotiation can be very delicate. Usually, the problem is down to an error in some labyrinth department that your regular contact has no access to within a huge layered organisation. Try to solve things through your regular contact, rather than going over their head and encourage them to talk to relevant staff in payments.
One of the worst steps a small business can take in this situation is to attempt enforcement action: for example, to try to levy statutory interest on an overdue invoice. It is better in the long run to try and retain credit management.
You may be aware that a recent trend for large corporations is to implement online vendor portals where suppliers can log-on, submit their invoices, and check the status of upcoming payments. It's very important that suppliers know how this system works and understand the right process for accepting purchase orders, issuing invoices, and implementing correct payment bank account details. It is important that you take the time upfront to understand the protocol, avoiding any delays when you are really dependent on receiving the cash to meet your own bills.
A cunning ploy for improving cash flow is to start a relationship with an invoice discounting facility, or alternative finance lender. Recently, factoring and invoice discounting, both forms of traditional invoice finance, have become a major source of working capital. Factoring is a viable solution for late payments; this form of invoice finance converts unpaid or late paid invoices into cash; ultimately raising money on outstanding invoices and advancing cash quickly against them. However there are ongoing monthly service fees that are payable regardless of whether funding was required that month. In addition factoring means that the factor will manage your sales ledger and chase invoices on your behalf. For those who prefer to stay in control of their cash flow and credit management and sell only the invoices they choose to rather than have to sell them all there is an alternative and cheaper solution. With the improvements in technology there are a few innovative online marketplaces for invoices, which enables UK businesses to raise short-term finance or improve cash flow by enabling them to 'sell' invoices raised, to investors via online auction.
Some delays in payments – particularly long payment terms – cannot be fixed so easily. As mentioned, long payment terms arise as a natural consequence of being a supplier to a large corporate. Waiting on long payment terms will often retard a business' growth, especially in fast moving industries where waiting for three months for a big client to pay can be a big drag on their ability to take on new staff, or move up the ladder, dealing with bigger and bigger clients.
Of course, like most advice, it is easy to offer and sometimes hard to follow – all business can benefit from being a little better organised, a little better managed or having a better relationship with suppliers.

The program features stories about diseases, including celiac disease, that are difficult to diagnose. Stay tuned for this important program!!!
I saw this episode a couple weeks ago.
I dont want to spoil it for anyone but...the little boy has celiac disease.
Darn, Rachel, you took all the suspense out of it!!!!
First giggling, and now this? Rachel, you are *SOOO* in detention!
I just got this update e-mail from the Celiac Center (at Columbia).
I guess I was feeling a little naughty last night...don't know what came over me.
Now I'm having flashbacks of my detention days....boy was that fun!
Excellent idea to bump this, Deb. Thank you.
Jen-- Keep watching for it, I saw it about a month ago. I think they repeat shows pretty frequently.
I watched it last night-was very impressed. Good info on it!
It was a good show but the whole hour wasn't about the Murphys. Strange, but the third story sounded more like somebody with celiac than the Murphy story.
Even Peter Greene said the boy's symptoms were very atypical. To me the real outrage was that the mother's doctor told her not to worry about family members having it, and that it took doctors so long to say, hey, she has celiac, maybe we'd better throw that test in even though this is an unusual symptom.
I havent seen this show, but have heard a lot about it. Its my understanding that the boy had a seizure(s)? I had a seizure (my one and only) about 3 months ago and then was diagnosed Celiac about 1 month after that. Neither my top notch neurologist nor my celiac specialist has been able to tell me if they are connected. Did this show discuss the seizure aspect at all, that any of you can remember?
I dont really remember them getting into the seizure aspect. Did he have a seizure? I saw the episode about a month ago...I dont remember if he actually had a seizure...he would kind of go into a catatonic (sp?) state. It was like he was zoned out...is that a seizure?
hmmm... I think it would probably be classified as a type of seizure. There are many different levels. Sometimes you are awake and conscious when its happening - sometimes you are not. I was not - I had a grand mal. I just find it all to be waaaay too coincendental if the seizure and the celiac disease were not related. Anyway - I will have to watch the show - i just keep missing it. Damn! these are the times when i really really wish i had Tivo.
I was cat sitting for my parents when this was supposed to be on and they have this channel, but I don't. So I rushed over there in time to see it, found the channel amongst the hundreds of channels and the show was actually on! I was so excited, I sat through the first two stories and they obviously weren't celiac, then the third one came on and I'm like "this must be it" and the symptoms were tired, diarrhea, but it wasn't celiac! I don't know what happened, but it was obviously a different episode.
Its going to be on again on december 4 this sunday and then again someother time in december. i found this out on their website their three times that i cant remeber but if you go the website it will tell you and you can sign up for a reminder of when its going to be on.

Cross-Post: Bishop Braxton calls action to end racism imperative for every American
September 26, 2017 by BFC in Racial Justice
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Every person "must do something," whether big or small, to address racism in the United States, Bishop Edward K. Braxton of Belleville, Illinois, told an audience at The Catholic University of America.
From taking a public stance at a rally to reaching out to a neighbor, racism can be addressed and overturned, the bishop said during a presentation at a Sept. 21 "teach-in" on fighting racism sponsored by the university's National Catholic School of Social Service.
"We must expand the horizon of possibilities to ourselves by listening, learning, thinking, praying, acting," he said.
Recalling that Catholics in public life and leaders in the U.S. Catholic Church once supported slave ownership and widely denied the civil rights of enslaved African-Americans early in the country's history, Bishop Braxton said much remains to be accomplished to heal the sin of racism and the "flaw at the foundation" of past teaching.

JJ's teacher told us a good way of teaching a kid their times tables.
It involves creating them on the computer, or you could do it by hand, and cutting them out so they're all individual like in the image above.
Then you put them all in a jar and pull them out one by one and ask the question, eg 10 times 1. If your child doesn't answer straight away it goes back in the same jar.
If they do answer straight away it goes in another jar.
I guess the idea is repetition so that it eventually sinks in.
For me, it's remembering to do it with all the other stuff I have to do as a single parent.
Now, for a way to get a kid to learn how to spell!
Firstly, congratulations on the month's work – may it lead to providence!
That is a great trick – something we probably still need to do.
I actually did a similar thing with dd's reading words in younger grades (and probably need to get back to as well) and used them as flash cards.
Jeanie is right – use the same technique for spelling. Another tip is to do it whilst doing the ironing (that's if your clothes aren't all non-iron) or any other relatively mindless job around the house. It worked with three of my four (and might have done with the fourth but he needed one-to-one to cope with dyslexia).

What Medications To Avoid Before a Plastic Surgery?
Jan 12 Comments Off on What Medications To Avoid Before a Plastic Surgery?
Plastic surgery can be a wonderful way to enhance your appearance and boost your self image. But as with any surgery, there are risks involved, and certain medications to avoid and prevent complications. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Richard J. Brown consults with each patient before surgery to create a list of allowable medications, but certain drugs will almost always need to be avoided. Related: Why You Should Talk to Your Doctor About Your Medications Before Your Surgery Medications that contain aspirin may cause bleeding problems during and after the surgery, which would make it more difficult for even small incisions to heal. Any other blood thinners or anticoagulants would have the same effect and should be avoided for at least two weeks before and after a surgery. Herbal supplements can put patients at risk during surgery as well. Gingko biloba, ginseng, and fish oil can increase risk of bleeding, while garlic and ephedra have been associated with cardiovascular risk. Other supplements have been known to increase the skin's sensitivity to light, which can complicate laser skin treatments. Diet pills and energy drinks, though not always considered to be medication, can interfere with some procedures. The ingredients in these have been known to cause heart rhythm problems when combined with general anesthesia, which Dr. Brown uses for many of his procedures. If you are a smoker, you will be asked to quit smoking for six weeks prior to and six weeks following your surgery, as the narcotics contained in cigarettes do not allow the body to heal itself properly. Dr. Brown provides a list of medications that must be avoided for two weeks prior to and following surgery. After your surgery you can speak with Dr. Brown and with your general practitioner about resuming medications and supplements. Related: What to Expect During a Post-Operative Appointment For questions regarding your medications and surgery, or to schedule a consultation, call the offices of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Richard J. Brown at 480-947-2455.

Q: test class method that return another class I want to test whether the main class method of getService return the correct new class based on the correct conditional
// main.js
import ServiceA from './serviceA'
import ServiceB from './serviceB'

class Main {
   constructor(){}
   getService(serviceName){
     switch(serviceName){
       case 'serviceA':
          return new ServiceA()
       case 'serviceB':
          return new ServiceB()
       default
          return null
     }
  }
}

Would it be possible to test that the returned class is correct? I tried something like this
import Main from './Main'

describe('Main method', () => {
  describe('getService given ServiceA', () => {
    it.skip('should return an instantiate of ServiceA class', function () {
      const main = new Main();
      const getService = spy(main, 'getService');

      main.getService('serviceA');

      expect(getService).to.be.an.instanceOf(ServiceA);
    });
  });

A: There shouldn't be a need to spy on getService(). Since you are just testing the input and output of the getService() without any dependencies. Spying would allow to see call count and arguments passed to the spy to see if it was called inside the method you are testing. How you had it is mostly correct as it is.
import Main from './Main'
describe('Main method', () => {
  describe('getService given ServiceA', () => {
    it('should return an instantiate of ServiceA class', function () {
      const main = new Main();
      const result = main.getService('serviceA');
      expect(result).to.be.an.instanceOf(ServiceA);
    });
});

About Homelessness
Knowledge Panel
Nanaimo Warming Centres Now Open
Homelessness In Nanaimo
Like many cities across Canada, Nanaimo is in the midst of an affordable housing and homelessness crisis.
The minimum number of people facing homelessness in Nanaimo is 433, but likely the number is closer to 600; an increase of 29% since 2018 (335) and 149% since 2016 (174). Already strained services for vulnerable residents are unable to keep up with demand.
Someone experiencing homelessness lives day-to-day, with no certainty when or where they'll be able to eat, bathe or sleep.
They live without the basic amenities many of us take for granted. When focused on survival, it's near impossible for someone without the security of shelter and stability of regular meals to think about recovery, health and employment.
An estimated 6000 people are living on the brink of homelessness in Nanaimo.
The 2020 Point-In-Time Count also found that people facing homelessness in Nanaimo are from Nanaimo. 71.2% have been here for more than five years and initially moved to Nanaimo for the same reasons as everyone else: work, school and family.
The 2020 Point-In-Time Count found that the minimum number of people facing homelessness in Nanaimo is 433 but likely the number is closer to 600.
What Causes Homelessness?
The Nanaimo Homeless Coalition recognizes how challenging homelessness is in our community. Nanaimo and region are not unique in facing a big increase in homelessness. Communities across BC and Canada are challenged by the rapid increase in homelessness and the opioid crisis'.
1. Affordability
Ideally, less than 30% of your income is spent on housing. Almost half (47.4%) of Nanaimo's renters spend more than 30% of their income on housing.1 In 2018, rent for a two-bedroom apartment increased by nearly 10% while the average BC wage increased by only 2.4%. Rental rate increases are outpacing wages, making housing in Nanaimo unaffordable.2
3. Insecure Housing
The 2020 Nanaimo Point-in-Time Count made clear that once a person loses their home or chooses to leave unsafe housing, it's very difficult for them to secure housing again. Increased rents have made previously affordable homes out-of-reach for those with low incomes. Landlords have a larger tenant pool, making tough competition for those with poor credit and/or mental or physical health problems.
2. Low Wages
The median income for those living alone or with non-relatives is $27,850, which means that 45.5% of single people earn less than $25,000 a year. Almost a third (29%) of single parent families earn less than $25,000 a year.3

2 Health & Housing Nanaimo – Backgrounder
3 Source: Statistics Canada, Family and Individual Taxfiler Data
4. Mental Health & Addictions
While not everyone who is homeless has a substance use disorder, a high number do suffer with substance use and it's typically related to an underlying mental health challenge. A significant number of people experiencing homelessness suffer from both severe mental illness and addictions. In the past few years, impacts of the opioid crisis have complicated things further, making it even more difficult to address mental health and substance use.
How We're Taking Action
Tackling the root causes of homelessness requires intervention at all levels. Without financial investment and resources from all levels of government and the support of many non-profit organizations on the ground, solving this issue would be impossible.

Q: Magento 2 How to apply jquery for getting input text value in checkout page? I want to get input text value in checkout page.
I have tried to apply jquery in checkout page but it didn't work it. I have also worked with pure javascript but it also didn't work.
Jquery not working because checkout page working only knockout js
<script type="text/javascript">
    require([ 'jquery', 'jquery/ui'], function($){
        jQuery(window).load(function(){
            jQuery("#shipping-new-address-form input[name='vat_id']").keyup(function(e) {
                alert("test");
            });
        });
    });

</script>

This code is working fine on console.
Please help me and solve this issue
Thanks in advance.

A: Hi please try the below code and it should work as i am already using something like this and it is working fine.
<script type="text/javascript">
    require(['jquery', 'jquery/ui'], function($){
        jQuery(document).on('keyup', '#shipping-new-address-form input[name="vat_id"]', function(e) {
                        alert("test");
        });
    });
</script>

A: Magento 2 works with requireJS library, so you need to use "require"/"define" function to receive the jquery.
I think that you want to change the shipping behavior, so, you can do a fallback of shipping.js from Magento_Checkout module and add your code there.

That is how Japan developed its technologies in the fields of the environment and energy, thereby overcoming two major challenges which arose: pollution and the oil crisis. With the growing demand for energy, improving energy efficiency has become a key policy issue in Japan.
Therefore, this study estimates the energy demand function of Japan's industrial sector using a stochastic frontier model and analyzes the level of energy efficiency and its determinants. An empirical analysis based on the data of 47 Japanese prefectures presents three main by: 2.
Energy efficiency has tremendous potential to boost economic growth and avoid greenhouse gas emissions, but the global rate of progress is slowing – a trend that has major implications for consumers, businesses and the environment. Energy Efficiency examines in detail the reasons for this.

Aspect Ratio Random Weirdness
Since I was talking earlier about how most movies today use the 2.35:1 'Scope aspect ratio, I wanted to bring up the one and only thing worth mentioning in connection with Pink Panther 2 (apart from the obvious, that with his disappointing 30 Rock and SNL appearances and now this, Steve Martin has gone from a performer who makes things better to one who actually makes everything worse). Both Pink Panther 2 and Martin's first Pink Panther, from a different director, are shot in the "flat" 1.85:1 aspect ratio. The movie series it's based on, of course, was all shot in 'Scope and features some of the most 'Scope-dependent comedy in movie history. (The dentist scene in Pink Panther Strikes Again, for example: the punchline, "he's pulled the wrong tooth," gets its laugh from the fact that Dreyfus is in the foreground while Clouseau is in the background on the other side of the wide frame. I can't really explain why that makes it funny, but the scene isn't funny at all when panned and scanned.) So Martin and his Pink Panther team couldn't even get the shape of the screen right.

Aspect ratio aside, there is NO WAY anyone can replace Peter Sellers & Herbert Lom--they knew how to fill a 2.35.1 screen with comic magic.
Blake Edwards tells anyone who'll listen that he "uses all of the frame" composing his pictures for scope.
I saw Steve Martin a few months ago.... he looks OLD.
Steve Martin is in his sixties & IMO too old for slapstick roles, especially iconic ones created by other comic actors.
The Marx Brothers and Laurel & Hardy were considered past their prime when they were in their early fifties. Part of the reason their later films were less than classic was because watching an aging obese Ollie pratfall was no longer funny. Maybe Martin should stick to family fare like Father of the Bride III.
Anthony Strand said...
I don't get all the hate for Steve Martin's 30 Rock appearance. I thought it was a funny episode and he was perfectly fine in it.
I thought it was a pretty good episode, but I just didn't like Martin in it -- he wasn't terrible or anything, but I just found him bland, as I often do.

Butler's Tate Fritchley receives a crown fit for a Dawg

MALACHI WHITE | ASST. CULTURE EDITOR | mrwhite1@butler.edu
After months of preparation, junior marketing major Tate Fritchley was crowned Miss Indiana USA 2019 on Oct. 21. Last year, Fritchley placed fourth. This year, she came back with new determination, and it paid off.
"I used to get caught up in trying to make everything perfect and I had to learn that not everyone or everything is," Fritchley said.
The two-day pageant was held at the Palladium's Center for the Performing Arts. Fritchley and the other 21 contestants competed in three areas: the interview, swimsuit and evening gown.
This year, her on-stage interview question addressed celebrities and their role in politics.
"Taylor Swift recently came under fire for posting on social media about the upcoming midterm election," the host said. "Do you think celebrities should be vocal about their political beliefs?"
"I think celebrities have all the right to vocalize their beliefs," Fritchley responded. "Just because one person believes something doesn't mean someone else has to. I think Taylor Swift has the right to believe what she wants and to vocalize her opinion just as we do ourselves."
Fritchley overcame her nervousness and, at the end, became the organization's newest queen and Indiana representative. She will now be moving on to the Miss USA pageant in the spring 2019.
She shared her excitement about winning on social media the day after the pageant ended.
"Absolutely speechless. I am so humbled to represent you Indiana! God's timing is always perfect and I'm so grateful that he has placed this opportunity in front of me," Fritchley wrote in an Instagram post. "I have so many thank you's to give all who have supported me and helped me reach my dreams! But for now, we're going to Miss USA!"
The road to Miss Indiana USA was not an easy one. Fritchley dedicated hours of practicing, working out, dieting and praying to prepare for the pageant.
"The hardest part for me was just trusting the process," Fritchley said. "I just wanted to make sure that the efforts I was putting into this would eventually be rewarded, and you just never know what's going to happen."
While preparing for the pageant, Fritchley also balanced being a student, a friend and girlfriend.
"If you ask me, I think she's superhuman, just because I really don't know how she does it," Rayder Hobbs said, Fritchley's boyfriend of two years and a junior at Butler. "With everything she's got coming up, I really don't know, but I do know that she does have great time management."
Meetings, photoshoots and traveling are just a few of the new responsibilities now added to Fritchley's calendar.
"She keeps everything on point, and she never wastes time," Hobbs said. "I try to be positive and do anything to just pick her up. Whether it's texting some Bible verses to her or just some encouragement to get through some weeks."
This also includes going grocery shopping with Fritchley and participating in her new dietary habits.
"I try to eat well with her sometimes too, just so it was easier for her to go through the process knowing she wasn't doing it by herself," Hobbs said.
Fritchley said Butler's chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta has been a source of monumental support. Her childhood best friend Layne Wright and fellow Miss Indiana USA contestant Mikayla Eaton are also members of the sorority.
Wright is a junior human communication and organizational leadership major who has known Fritchley since fourth grade. They are currently rooming together in their sorority house. They've been through it all, Fritchley said.
"We have a saying, 'FTC,' or 'for the crown,' which is kind of funny," Fritchley said. "So anytime we wanted to go out for ice cream or do something that I would have to stay back to study or stay on track, she would say, 'FTC!'"
Wright said she believes Fritchley developed further as a person after placing top five last year.
"She worked even harder for this year's pageant," Wright said. "I've also seen her grow in her confidence in herself and in where she finds her self-worth. I definitely think that her biggest strength as a person is her heart."
Eaton, a senior marketing and entrepreneurship double major, competed with Fritchley for the first time this year. They met before the summer of their first year at Butler. Fritchley at the time held the Miss Indiana State Fair title while Eaton was Miss LaPorte County.
"In the pageant scene, Tate is so grateful and so humble," Eaton said. "If you know her, you know she's accomplished so much at her age. She definitely deserved to win because she just embodies being a genuine girl."
Some of Fritchley's most important supporters came from home, as family has always been an important aspect in her life.
"They saw something in me that I didn't see in myself, and they never stopped believing in me even when I started to doubt myself," Fritchley said.
Tate's younger sister Ryan Fritchley, 15, says that she admires her sister's commitment especially because of how much she said Tate loves food.
"We both have goals and we have the same thought processes so I admire her drive, because anything she committed to she stuck with it," Ryan said. "We went to a rodeo and she was munching her broccoli and chicken and sticking to her diet. She's such a foodie that I couldn't believe it."
Paul Fritchley is Tate's father and said he is proudest of the fact that Tate holds on to her core values and "is original anytime or anywhere you meet her."
"I was worried that style and beauty would become her focus, but God bless her, she's never changed," he said. "She continues to put value on what is reality rather than what's visual like social media and the glam of pageant life."
Paul talked about how he was far less concerned about the results of this pageant because of the preparations Tate took to achieve her goal became evident in her performance.
"Last year I don't think Tate was ready to do what she was being called and required to do in this pageant," Fritchley said. "This year I believe was a lot more ready for what was required of her. She's grown in the fact of public speaking and making you want to hear what she has to say."
Not only was she surrounded by supporters near and far, but she also had role models like Miss Indiana USA 2016 winner Morgan Abel, who encouraged Fritchley to pursue Miss Indiana USA.
"Some people just have that 'it factor,' and there was something about Tate's presence that I thought was special," Abel said. "She's extremely grounded and just has this sweet demeanor about her. I knew if I could convince her and her dad, Paul, to compete that she would win."
When they met, Fritchley had just been crowned the Miss Indiana State Fair title holder. Abel told Fritchley and her dad about the 2017 Miss Indiana pageant and her experience as Miss Indiana USA. Once Fritchley committed to compete in last year's pageant, Abel continued to encourage her and offer advice.
"Of course Tate is beautiful, but her exterior beauty doesn't begin to compare to the beauty of her soul," Abel said. "I believe so many contestants get caught up in the idea of what a titleholder should be, instead of staying true to themselves, and they lose their edge. Tate has always stayed true to who she is, and it's refreshing."
As a Christian, Fritchley said she has used her faith as a building block to discover her purpose — not just pageantry, but also in life.
"This was a growing experience," Fritchley said. "At the end of the day, God has a plan no matter what my plan is. So maybe His will isn't for me to win Miss Indiana USA, and maybe it is."
Fritchley said the women who participate in pageants are more than just pretty faces. Their role in society impacts the next generation of women.
"I think a lot of people don't realize how intelligent and how accomplished these young women are," Fritchley said. "I hope that I make an impact of just being that positive light that people can look to and say, 'Oh, she's so full of joy and I can be the same way.'"
Her accomplishments did not begin with winning Miss Indiana USA, but Fritchley said she hopes that they won't end now that she is a representing the state.
"It's really humbling to know that I not only represent Butler, and myself, and my family, but Indiana as a whole." Fritchley said. "It's going to be really cool to meet different people from across Indiana, and embody what it means to be a Hoosier."

Butler Bulldog placed Top 5 at Miss Indiana USA


There were no doctors in Donna May Kimmaliardjuk's family. No nurses, not even a physiotherapist. Still, from the time she was very young, Kimmaliardjuk was determined to become a physician.
Now 28, she is doing a residency in heart surgery.
Kimmaliardjuk — "Dr. K" to patients at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute — is Canada's first Inuk heart surgeon, recently recognized with an Indspire Award for being a role model for young women and Indigenous youth.
"I feel like I have a responsibility now. I think what I want to do, at the very minimum, is share my story and let them know how it's possible to complete high school and go on to post-secondary education," says Kimmaliardjuk.
Kimmaliardjuk has roots in Chesterfield Inlet, Nunavut, a village of only a few hundred people. Her grandparents were both born in an igloo — there were no prefab houses in the community at the time. One of her great-grandfathers was a shaman.
Born in Winnipeg, Kimmaliardjuk lived briefly in Nunavut before her parents decided to move south, settling in Orléans. She went to St. Peter Catholic High School, where she excelled in math and science, and loved to play the piano.
Kimmaliardjuk and her brother, Stephen, were the only Indigenous students at St. Peter. If there was racism, she says, she didn't feel it deeply. "I think I was fortunate," she says.
According to Statistics Canada's 2011 National Household Survey, about 42 per cent of Inuit between the ages of 18 and 44 completed the requirements for a school diploma, compared to 89 per cent of the non-Aboriginal population. About 26 per cent of the Inuit population in that age range had post-secondary credentials in 2011, compared to 64 per cent of the non-Aboriginal population.
Kimmaliardjuk went to Queen's University in the life sciences program — plenty more math and science — and graduated in 2011. She decided to go to medical school at the University of Calgary. When it came time to apply for a residency, she contemplated going into family medicine and working in the North, but her mentor convinced her to apply for a residency in cardiac surgery.
Her mother, Julia Kimmaliardjuk, believes her daughter's vocation goes back to a blessing she received from her great-grandmother. Julia was visiting with her infant daughter when the elder asked her to approach and took the baby's hand.
Julia was educated at the insistence of her own grandfather, who couldn't speak English and was once stung by his inability to defend himself when he was accused of theft by an RCMP officer. She went to residential school in the early '80s and felt drawn to a military career.
"I used to get these catalogues, Sears or Eaton's, and see images of people in their uniforms. I was fascinated," she says. In 1984, while living in Ottawa, Julia went into a recruiting centre and signed up. She went through basic training and was assigned to work in finance and logistics.
Kimmaliardjuk's brother, Stephen, went to Immaculate University near Philadelphia on a baseball scholarship and was scouted by the Atlanta Braves before he was injured and returned to Canada.
Kimmaliardjuk considers her parents to be her best role models. "They set examples of working hard and being kind and having high self-esteem," she says.
Kimmaliardjuk is disarmingly modest, describing her medical residency as "a kind of apprenticeship." Residency spots in certain medical specialties are coveted, and a spot in cardiac surgery is notoriously difficult to win. Still, she insists that cardiac surgery was less competitive the year she applied because there have been few job openings for cardiac surgeons.
"What I like about surgery is that you can have an impact on a person's life right there and then. Sometimes people don't take their meds. But if you do heart surgery, you do something, right there," she says.
Jeffrey Taylor had a triple bypass at the Heart Institute in September. He praises Kimmaliardjuk for her bedside manner.
"The last person I saw before they put me under was Dr. K. She was rubbing my hand. She went though the whole operation with me. She even allowed me to return home a little early. I'm a big fan. So is my wife, because I'm home," he says.


The paradox of our time is obvious: information production is more than ever before, but confusion in the world is more than ever before as well; food production is more than ever before, but hunger in the world is more than ever before as well; medicine has advanced more than ever before, but death from incurable deceases is more than ever before as well; science has progressed more than ever before, but mythical obsession is more than ever before as well; talks about human rights are more than ever before, but might is ruling the world more brutally than ever before; declarations about social justice are louder than ever before, but suffering from injustice and tyranny in the world is more than ever before; peace proclamations are more than ever before, but wars in the world are more than ever before.
Perhaps, we humans down there on this planet earth or up there as we look down at animal species don't see this paradox because we don't want to see it or we don't have time to see it because we are so busy looking up for more information, food, medicine, fictions, rights, growth and peace.
Suppose that someone outside of our planet earth is looking at us right now from up there or from down there. What he, she or it would or could say how we look like?
I know that it would offend us, it would hurt our humanity, if she, he or it would have come and told us that we look like beasts. If she, he or it would have said that we behave like beasts behave in the jungle.
What would be our response? It would be like: – No, not at all. We are not the beasts who kill each other in the jungle. We are humans who love each other on this planet! Here is our proof: we meet and we talk about peace and security as well as economic growth and equality. Here we are united in a big human soul for peace. Don't you see, our friend? We have come here because we love each other for the sake of our planet, where we like to live in peace like the humans not like the beasts. Thus, we don't like to be called the beasts. We like to be called the humans, indeed.
But what if our friend, the stranger from the other planet, asks us as we claim to be humans – what if he asks us about the current not one but many wars, not one but many injustices and inequalities in our world which he, she or it sees by his/her naked eye?
What if he, she or it says that these bloody wars among the humans on earth look even worse than the killing among the beasts in the jungle?
What if our friend from the other planet confronts us with the truth that we humans, who like not to be called the beasts – we humans know how to talk about peace, but we don't know how to stop making wars; we know how to speak about human rights, but don's know how to control our holy might; we like to look like being just, but we don't like to do justice; we humans have the idea of right and wrong, but we don't know how to make the difference between the two; we know the difference between good and evil, but we are not willing to stop evil when it comes.
What if he, she or it from other planet reminds us that there is a big discrepancy between our talking about peace and making our war, between our speaking about justice and our doing injustice?
What if he, she or it tells us that we humans are big hypocrites who don't know how to tell the truth, but know how to manipulate the lie?
These are hard questions for us all? Aren't they? So, what can we, the humans, not the beasts, tell to our friend from the other planet who asks us these questions? Each one of us should try his/her best to answer them.
As you know I am coming from the Balkans that have witnessed the worst war since the Second World War. The cry of "Never Again" has failed in Bosnia as you all know it. Once again an intolerable affront to the human conscience has occurred: Genocide! I have lived it. And I have survived it in order to testify before you today that the law is not in the books; the law is in the heart, and the heart is in the soul, and the soul is in the trust, and the trust is in God, the Loving, the Merciful, the Caring, the Good.
Thus, I would like to ask our friend from the other planet to tell us how can we find our heart in our soul; how can we get back our soul to our trust; how can we earn our trust in God, who is watching us as we humans are apparently losing our mind, our heart, our soul, our trust in each other?
Yes, indeed, we desperately need help because we are becoming helpless and hopeless.
We need someone to tell us how to help the little Syrian girl who is crying in tears and blood before our naked eyes!
We need someone to guide us how to give hope to a little boy who is sailing in the ocean for his safety from endless wars!
We need someone from the heaven to soften our human hearts which seem to be hardened like rocks, or worse than rocks. There are rocks out of which rivers gush; there are rocks which split asunder so that water flows from them; indeed, there are rocks which fall down before Merciful God, but some human hearts are harder than the rocks. These hard human hearts make hard wars. They make racial, religious and social discriminations. They have no heart.
But, there are human with good hearts. I see them here in Kiel at this Global Economic Symposium who are willing to be different and to call others as well to be vigilant about the peace and safety of our common planet, to be promoter of justice and equality in the world. An this is why I am here with you. Because I believe that change for better is possible.
And it is time that we start thinking how to change the paradox into the harmony of good will and good action with good heart and strong mind!
I believe that it is possible!
There are humans with good hearts and strong minds!
Good humans with hearts are not bad beasts!
Good humans with hearts can change from good to better!

Augenblick, that means actually 'In the blink of an eye', describes a 'decisive second' in time that's either fleeting but momentously eventful, even epoch-makingly major. during this publication Koral Ward investigates the advance of the concept that into one of many center principles in Western existential philosophy along such thoughts as anxiousness and person freedom. Ward examines the total volume of the assumption of the 'decisive moment', within which an individual's whole life-project is open to an intensive reorientation. From its inception in Kierkegaard's works to the writings of Jaspers and Heidegger, she attracts on an enormous array of assets past simply the normal figures of nineteenth and twentieth century Continental philosophy, discovering rules and examples in images, cinema, song, paintings, and the fashionable novel.
In philosophy as in usual existence, reason and influence are dual pillars on which a lot of our notion turns out dependent. yet nearly a century in the past, Bertrand Russell declared that smooth physics leaves those pillars with out foundations. Russell's innovative end used to be that "the legislation of causality is a relic of a bygone age, surviving, just like the monarchy, purely since it is erroneously speculated to do no harm".
During this e-book, fifteen authors from a large spectrum of disciplines (ranging from the average sciences to the humanities) supply checks of ways time enters their paintings, the definition and makes use of of time that experience proved best or difficult, and the teachings their matters can supply for our figuring out of time past the school room and laboratory partitions.
A Naïve Realist concept of color defends the view that colors are mind-independent homes of items within the setting, which are particular from houses pointed out by way of the actual sciences. This view stands not like the long-standing and known view among philosophers and scientists that colors do not quite exist - or at any fee, that in the event that they do exist, then they're considerably varied from the best way that they seem.
In this chapter, then, I will tease out a problem concerning two different translations of Fragments where the word 'moment' is rendered in different and perhaps conflicting ways. The relation between 'the god' [Guden] and human being is, for Kierkegaard, necessary to an understanding of the moment as a matter of faith. Following the development of the concept from 'an atom of time' to its elevated sense as the moment of the incarnation of Christ and its consequent moment of 'subjective appropriation', we find its culmination in a more 'replete sense' as 'an atom of eternity' or the 'fulness of time'.
11 The Concept of Anxiety reflects Kierkegaard's personal history, concerned as it is with existential anxiety, a state to which he was no stranger. 12 The unfolding of ideas follows a progression through stages or individual 'moments' [Momenter], the very naming of one of Kierkegaard's works as Stages on Life's Way illustrates the importance of the progression of an individual through aesthetic, ethical, and religious stages of existence. The concepts which Kierkegaard addresses in various works also pass through stages in their own development toward a higher, and deeper meaning.
There is no direct progression of the concept from Kierkegaard to Nietzsche, unlike the cases of Jaspers and Heidegger, who derive major aspects of their concept directly from Kierkegaard and Nietzsche. Yet there are some striking similarities between their renditions of the Augenblick, along with fresh strands which emerge independently in Nietzsche. A central idea is the elevation of the Augenblick from its place as a moment in ordinary time to one with a relation with 'the eternal' and the notion of escaping or transcending the temporal domain through an immediate and intense experience, or in reflection.

Iris bashing...
Yesterday it was revealed that Northern Ireland's First Minister's wife - Iris Robinson, had been having an affair...a 21 year old called Kirk McCambley, who is the joint owner of the business The Lock Keepers Inn...Apparently Peter found out about the affair after Iris attempted suicide in March 2009. It has been previously announced that Iris has stepped down from public life.
We discovered officially about this story by way of arranged press interview with Peter Robinson on Wednesday.
Its a sad story. Iris is well known in Northern Ireland because of her attacks on the gay community. The interview given by Peter was simply vocal Iris bashing. It was done to save his political skin, to protect his position, to distance himself from further revelations to come.
I can't help thinking that Peter has played a blinder, attempted and achieved to sway public opinion. In his press interview he read his comments from a prepared script. Its just a nasty business.
More on BBC NI Spotlight 10.35 tonight.
