The Elections in Angola
The front-page article "Angolan President Urges US Role to Help End Renewed Civil War," Jan. 25, is a prescription for intensifying the fighting presently raging in my country. The unelected Angolan President, Jose Eduardo dos Santos, called on the United Nations to declare the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA) a "terrorist organization."
This movement would give the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA), which currently dominates the government, an internationally sanctioned license to declare UNITA illegal. It would also remove the only significant opposition force in the country, which won 70 of the 221 seats in the national legislature.
Mr. Dos Santos - who did not receive the constitutionally mandated 50 percent plus one votes needed to win the presidency - could also avoid a presidential runoff required by the law that the previous one-party legislature passed. The result would be a de facto one-party state.
Although the elections were declared free and fair by the UN, and seconded by the United States, the majority of the opposition parties, including bitter rivals of UNITA, joined hands to declare them fraudulent. Their complaints were given scant attention, a cursory 48-hour investigation by a harried UN mission. Internal UN documents indicate that its own investigators generally supported the opposition claims.
The article states that Jonas Savimbi called the vote fraudulent and renewed the fighting. The real military conflagration started in Luanda on Oct. 31, when MPLA commandos, misnamed the anti-riot police, launched attacks against UNITA. This MPLA-sponsored violence resulted in the deaths of 6,000 people. This ethnic cleansing was the real start of the war.
The MPLA's call for US recognition of the present Angolan government must be examined closely. Recognition will not end the government-instigated fighting or put an end to MPLA-inspired pogroms. It would encourage MPLA intransigence to pursue the long-term dream of recreating UNITA without Jonas Savimbi, a man who received almost 40 percent of the presidential vote in a disputed election.

EMBATTLED businessman Clive Palmer announced plans to restart his self-titled political party, while the corporate watchdog investigating his former business activities.
This is despite the party being voluntarily deregistered last year and his ongoing court battles over his former company Queensland Nickel going into liquidation owing about $300 million and leaving about 800 workers out of work.
He would have to find 500 members signed up to the party to be able to register it again with the Australian Electoral Commission, or find an existing Federal MP or Senator to sign up to the party.
In a statement this morning Mr Palmer stated he intended to restart the party to contest the next election, but did not say if he would be a candidate himself.
"Since I left Parliament I have experienced the frustration and helplessness that all Australians experience with the major political parties," he said in a statement.
"It's time for Australia to reset its agenda for economic growth and prosperity."
Clive Palmer said his party aims to reset the "agenda for economic growth and prosperity".
The Palmer United Party contested the 2016 Federal election, but received just 26,210 votes or 0.19 per cent of the national vote in the Senate.
It received just 4816 votes or 0.18 per cent of the Senate vote in Queensland.
The Townsville-based seat of Herbert was the only lower house seat to party contested.
Mr Palmer's nephew Martin Brewster was the candidate and received just 315 votes, or 0.36 per cent of the vote.
Last week Australian Securities and Investments Commission boss John Price told a parliamentary committee that their investigation into Mr Palmer's companies included "suspected breaches of directors' duties provisions and also various provisions of the Corporations Act to do with false documents".
"It is looking at a wide range of potential actions, administrative, civil and possibly criminal and the time-frame will depend on the best path," he said.
"It's looking at the directors and officers of the group of companies beneficially owned by Mr Palmer, including Mineralogy Pty Ltd and Queensland Nickel.
"Turnbull and Shorten don't care about our future generation and seek to deprive rather than provide opportunities for young Australians.
"The Palmer United Party will contest every seat in the House of Representatives and Senate in every state of Australia.
"We need to expand our economy and provide growth for all Australians."
He said ASIC had issued more than 120 notices for the compulsory production of documents, questioned more than 30 witnesses, received and processed almost eight terabytes of data, were currently undertaking detailed analysis more than 37,000 documents.
The Palmer United Party was swept into Federal Parliament in the 2013 election, winning three Senate spots and Mr Palmer himself was elected to the Queensland seat of Fairfax.
Before the term was up two Senators had resigned from the party, former footballer Glenn Lazarus and Jacqui Lambie.
Mr Palmer did not recontest his seat, while he announced he would "retire" from politics shortly afterwards.

Simple Language Content Negotiation With Override
Summary: This paper details a method for achieving "Accept-Language"-driven content negotiation with Apache, while still permitting the user an override mechanism which persists from page to page, without the need for server-side scripting or a CMS.
At one point, I was doing the website for two summer camps I'm involved with. (That site used to demonstrate these techniques, but I no longer maintain it and they are no longer using this mechanism.) The site was pretty simple in construction, and made up of static HTML pages. Because the camp is bilingual, we had a requirement that the site be available in both English and French. No problem - we made two versions of each page, and I set up content negotiation with a simple .htaccess file. However, sometimes people have mis-configured browsers, or have some other reason for wanting the site in a language other than the one their Accept-Language header is advertising. And, if they make that choice, they want it to persist from page to page.
After much head scratching and web searching, I found an obscure page which detailed, at the end of a very long discussion, how to do it. This is a (hopefully more accessible) summary of the technique. I will use English (en) and French (fr) as my example, but this could be done with any languages.
2. Content Negotiation
The first thing you do is create your content in two versions - an English version of the content, and a French version. How to do this is outside the scope of this paper; I use a template plus a hacked-together Perl script which replaces tags with localised text from a strings file. Give the two versions file extensions to match their language - e.g. .html.en for English. Use the standard instructions in the .htaccess in the root directory of your site to enable MultiViews and language-based content negotiation for the languages in question.
3. Manual Override
You could have a manual override on e.g. each English page by having a "en Français" linking specifically to the .fr file; however, this override wouldn't persist; when the user navigated away from that page - Accept-Language negotiation would take over again. Avoiding this would require rewriting all of the links in the page dynamically to have a parameter or extension indicating the language - and that requires complicated server-side scripting support or a CMS.
Instead, you take advantage of the Apache mod_rewrite module, which permits server-side URL rewriting. Create two directories off the root, /en and /fr, whose only contents is a single .htaccess.
The .htaccess in the /en directory turns on FollowSymLinks and the Rewriting Engine, and then rewrites *.html files to ../*.html.en. So, if you access http://www.interaction-france.org/en/index.html, the URL gets rewritten by the server to http://www.interaction-france.org/index.html.en, and the English version of the content is returned. However, the URL in the user's browser still remains as http://www.interaction-france.org/en/index.html, and any further navigation is relative to that, so the language choice persists.
The .htaccess also rewrites all other URLs but without appending .en - this allows you to have graphics and other sorts of file which just live in a single place, but are used by both language versions. The .htaccess in the /fr directory does exactly the same thing but for French.
So, your "en Français" link on each page just refers to the same URL but with /fr inserted at the front.
This technique imposes only one restriction - links within your site must all be relative. Any absolute link will break the persistence of the user's language choice, because it will remove the /en or /fr prefix. Hey - it's swings and roundabouts.
In this way, with just the addition of a couple of .htaccess files, and with no need for server-side scripting or other complexities, you can achieve both the automatic serving of the negotiated language (correct in 99.9% of cases) and a manual override which persists.

Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch?
Subject: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Fri 20 Nov 2020 - 19:06
I can't see another thread like this, let me know if I've missed anything.
It's a pretty simple question, but it's one that's been playing in my mind a bit recently, especially in a quieter year and with the recent Capcom 'leaks'. What games do you want to see on Switch that haven't been announced for it yet? (So no Metroid Prime 4 - however far off it is, it is definitely still coming.) New entries in old franchises, ports and remasters and remakes, or just something you think would be an excellent game that we don't have yet. I'll be keeping it reasonable rather than idealistic, but you don't have to. Speculation threads like this often die on their arses, but hopefully we (probably I) can keep resurrecting it as our hopes turn to truth/dust.
To start the ball rolling, we've seen a bunch of ports and remasters lately and to be honest I'm getting a bit tired of them - but here are some existing games I'd actually like to see appearing on the Switch.
Ace Attorney Investigations Fun Pack, containing 1&2 translated into English (but honestly Capcom anything that's not just the original trilogy again would be good);
The Great Ace Attorney translated into English (see above disclaimer);
The Earthbound Trilogy, containing Mother 3 translated into - are you noticing a theme yet?
Okamiden - would need to be made HD but would be great on Switch, with the myriad loading screens stripped out (but honestly Capcom if you're going to port/remake stuff prioritise Ace Attorney games that aren't the original trilogy again);
Ghost Trick, which would work perfectly on Switch (but honestly Capcom etc. etc.);
Ever Oasis deserves a chance if it's not going to get a sequel, and it could do with a bit of a polish-up. The only last-gen. game I want to see;
The glorious return of the best social network there has ever been: Miiverse.
What about y'all?
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Fri 20 Nov 2020 - 19:13
A lot of what I've wanted from the Switch is more 3DS than Wii U as in Bravely Default II and lot of that sort of thing is coming in 2021 including likes of a new Monster Hunter.
That I'm hard pressed to think of anything beyond Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts in a simlair way to Birth by Sleep or Tactics.
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Sat 21 Nov 2020 - 8:28
Nothing really. They'd have to rush out before March 26th anyway, after that I'm occupied.
Nintendo are the masters of giving people what they never knew they wanted (or, conversely, giving people what they couldn't possibly have wanted). Who knows what they're up to.
I'm getting a little tired of all these ports as well. I think we're well overdue for new Donkey Kong and Pikmin games especially, and I'd like to see Nintendo make new entries into their Mario Golf and Mario Strikers series. If there's one game I'd like to see most, it's Mario Kart 9. Whether that's for Switch, for next-gen or a joint Switch/next-gen release (like Twilight Princess or Breath of the Wild was on their systems), I'll basically take it whatever way I can get it.
Third-party, Sonic Mania 2 is what I hope for most.
Mario Kart 9 is such a weird one as I'm keen for one on Switch but the success of MK8D means that you're likely right it's not coming till next gen Nintendo whenever that is (2023? If Switch halfway based on investors meetings).
That it just feels wrong going a whole Nintendo systen without a new Kart maybe why we got home tour.
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Sat 21 Nov 2020 - 22:46
I've heard Home Tour is actually really good fun, so I think it is a worthy Mario kart, but for grown-ups like us we'll probably never get more than one or two chances in our lives.
Having played a bit of Starlink, I'm well up for a real new Starfox. No gimmicks, no nothing, just good levels and sick visuals.
Persona 5 Royal, assuming that I don't cave in and just get it on PS4. I already have the original on PS3 and PS4... Having a portable version with the expanded features would be nice.
Persona 3 remastered. I would have said Persona 4/Golden as well, but that already came to Steam and I got that. However my worry with this one, which I think is inevitably coming to Steam and very possibly Switch at some point, is that they'll mess up the remaster/port. There are two main versions of this game - FES on PS2 which has the 3D environments and cutscenes, and the PSP version which has the nice quality of life improvements and a cool alternate girl route.
I can't stress how good the quality of life in the PSP version is, even if some aspects of it make the game too easy, but it'd be lame if the other stuff was missing. Hopefully Atlus read the pulse on this one. The Persona 4 Golden steam port was good - from what I've heard the Nocturne Switch port has been less than ideal, however.
Classic Fire Emblems 2-6 translated into English. We're getting FE1 translated and that's great but it's far from being the best one. I'd like a way to officially own the rest too.
The Gameboy Advance and Nintendo DS Castlevania games. I've been replaying a few of them on emulator recently, and even on a big display they hold up well like especially nice-looking indie games. Ditto for the Sonic Advance games. It's such a shame that in legacy compilations, quality handheld games seemed to be ignored even though emulation for GB/GBA has long been perfected. And there are a lot of quality DS games that are worth port jobs.
Super Mario Galaxy 2 - I really enjoyed Super Mario Galaxy 1. If they made a sequel to the game and say streamlined it a bit and polished the gameplay, and added Yoshi, I'd love that. Even if it was similar to the first Galaxy game. A Galaxy 1.5, if you will.
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Sun 22 Nov 2020 - 17:51
The Persona games on Switch would be great as the series has worked well on PSP and VITA but I've never been that bothered as Nintendo systems for some years got SMT games where PlayStation didn't.
As someone that owned both systems always looked at it oh well one system gets one series and the other system gets the other but if you only own one then no Persona 5 or SMTV could be annoying.
Thought of something else that come to mind from the TOH Discord as I'm looking at maybe getting Sakuna and Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memories on Switch over PS4 and maybe asking for Paper Mario or 3D Allstars for Xmas. Then looking at next year Switch has some bangers that I as a Lite owner very much would like a Pro or something like this but for Rise

All of this. Mario Kart is particularly galling, not for Live Tour but for Tour. There are resources being spent on a new Mario Kart, but it's a mobile gacha hell. I'd like to see Persona 5 too, if only to feel deep within my my soul like Joker belongs in Smash.
There are a couple of smaller franchises I'd really like to see as well, but I'll mention Wario Ware for now. A properly all-new Wario Ware with all-new minigames. It'd make great use of the HD rumble, which I'd honestly forgotten about for ages until Jim Sterling mentioned it re. the Dualsense.
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Tue 24 Nov 2020 - 7:05
Mario Kart Tour was made by Nintendo EPD, a department set up in 2015 which works exclusively on spin-off projects, mobile games, ports and remasters. It doesn't take any staff or material from the development of a Switch Mario Kart sequel, it brings in a lot of cash for Nintendo and it provides some form of a Mario Kart experience to the millions of people who have a smartphone, which is a pretty essential part of modern life, but for whatever reason can't or won't buy a dedicated gaming machine.
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Tue 24 Nov 2020 - 13:26
I'd have to add Wario Ware to my list too, they're such fun and creative games, the Switch would be perfect for a new one and more importantly we still need a proper multiplayer sequel to the GameCube game.
I never played the GameCube version so I'd be really up for a new multiplayer Wario Ware! Add Rhythm Heaven/Paradise as well to that niche list of 'franchises that got late games on 3DS that were mishmashes of older games that could do with new entries on Switch'.
In which case, colour me surprised and wrong, although I'm never going to like the way they gacha-ed the game. (I can understand it, after the failure of SMR - I just don't like it.) In which case, it does raise the question of why we haven't had either MK9 or more material for MK8D. Either would be great!
Yeah, I'm so pissed off that the world rejected Super Mario Run. I like just buying a game and having it, and I hate all this free-to-play stuff. It's why, Pokémon Go and Duolingo aside, I just don't do mobile gaming. Even with supposedly "good" stuff, it always feels like some bullshit is right around the corner . . .
The world didn't deserve Super Mario Run, it's legit an enjoyable game well worth the small price.
This world never deserved Mario. Human beings should have been given Crash Bandicoot and a cup of dog's piss and been grateful.
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Mon 30 Nov 2020 - 9:45
That's reminded me - I hope Activision give us high-quality Switch ports of Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2. I personally think that a lot of the Switch's announced 2021 line-up looks like a big forthy steaming cup of dog's piss, but I'd look forward to those two a lot.
And 2021 looks the best year for Switch for me
I can see it looking absolute turd for Cappa right now. Were you a No More Heroes fan, Cap? (Before Travis Strikes Again anyway.)
I really liked the first one, never got round to the sequel, and thought Travis Strikes Again was a total chore, it just sapped all the fun out of No More Heroes for me. I'm approaching No More Heroes III with caution.
Another game I'm hoping for - and something we'll surely see - is a Legend of Zelda 35th Anniversary collection. How that'll look, I don't know. My recent experiences with the 3D Zeldas - Breath of the Wild in 2017 and Wind Waker HD earlier this year in particular - were really positive. On the other hand, the remake of the 2D top-down Link's Awakening bored the arse off me.
Yup, I remember your views on TSA! Sad stuff. As for Zeldas, I imagine we'll get some sort of compilation. A Super Zelda 3D All-Stars wouldn't be for me (especially not if they time-limit it and omit the best one), but I wouldn't say no to remakes of the Oracles or Minish Cap in the style of that game that bored the arse off you. (Minish Cap was much better in my opinion.)
One big possibility that hasn't come up yet is an all-new 2D Mario (proper 2D not 3D 2D like SM3DL/W), and it's one I find myself missing. I'm not sure why. I haven't loved a 2D Mario since Super Mario Land was my first console game ever, but I'd hope that a proper new game would be freed from the shackles of the 'New' moniker and could be something great.
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Tue 1 Dec 2020 - 2:55
I'd like to see an HD Collection with the two from Wii U and Skyward Sword thrown in as well, launched simultaneously with N64 on the Switch Online App so we can get those two. If they wanted to actually give those some sexy remakes, that would be great of course, but I don't want to get too excited. . .
I'd also like to see something new, not New, done with 2D mario. That said, I'm half way through replaying all the Mario games and I would be happy to take a break for a while when I'm done . . .
Subject: Re: Swishlist - What Are You Still Hoping For On Switch? Tue 1 Dec 2020 - 10:50
The title image of Balla's post sums up all I really want, but a no-nonsense Star Fox game would go down a treat too.
I don't really want a new Mario Kart, I just want them to release four more cups. Just keep giving me more of the good stuff Nintendo!
I think I'm really going to go for Monster Hunter Rise when it drops, and with such a timesink on the horizon in conjunction with having a new computer, I'm in the enviable position of just generally being happy with adding the odd full price game here and there alongside eshop bargains when it comes to the Switch.
For Zelda, I hope it's a good year and we may see BotW 2.
Why I say may see BotW 2 as I think we will get Zelda Collection which has OoT (SM64), WW (SMS) and TP (SMG) on it, and we will get Skyward Sword HD as the 3D World comparison.
That with those and due to how loved BotW is, gives Nintendo even more time to get BotW2 right if it doesn't need to come out till March 2022 on the 5th anniversary of the Switch and first game instead of a November, for instance.
Then mix in Pokémon anniversary which likely means some sort of new game umm Let's Go 2 along with Pokémon Snap etc be a decent year.
What I really want, what I really really want, zigga zigga zig aaaah . . .
Is a new Excite Truck.
I would love to see another Let's Go game. I really enjoyed the Eevee edition, and just how well the game captured the spirit of the original games, the anime, whilst also adding a good deal of modernisation. But actually, my ideal new Pokémon game pushes the boat out quite a bit...
Ok maybe I should save this for some sort of, Pitchtendo thread, where you have to pitch a new nintendo game, but I would fucking love some sort of Stone Age Pokémon game.
No, no not like that, with rock Pokémon only, but some sort of game that takes the spirit of Digimon World but with a good old lick of Pokémon polish.
You see, Digimon World saw you trying to build up a Digimon city, helping corrupt Digimon, training your companion, all while making the world a better place. In the game form, we are perpetually told, not shown, that Pokémon are an all important part of life. But whereas Detective Pikachu shows a kickass sense of Poké-bloke comradery and symbiosis, there's just nothing like that in the games. All we do with is make them fight and pet Pokémon every now and then.
So the premise of this game would be somewhat like your Dragon Quest Builders or your Dark Cloud's, only this time it's a game that explores the time where man and Pokémon came together to forge settlements. It wouldn't have to be super involved or anything, and I have no idea what (if any) combat systems should be in place, nor do I know where the story would go, but I would personally really enjoy something that lets me be more than yet another chosen-one trainer.
Maybe this is a bit too wacky for most people, but I'd love to see more risks taken with Pokémon games.
Only if this enables me to challenge you at officially sanctioned, World Excite Truck Championship level events.

This is a great speaking activity from my acting class. It allows students of lower intermediate + level to share anecdotes from their lives and get to know each other better, as well as practise a variety of tenses.
To use a variety of tenses.
To increase speaking fluency by sharing an anecdote from your life with your classmates.
To retell another classmate's anecdote as if it was your own.
To identify which anecdotes belong to which students.
Depending on the number of students, divide your class into a minimum of 2 groups, with a minimum number of 3 in each group.
Move the groups so they are as far away as possible from each other.
In turns, students in each group give a short anecdote from their life, for example, the last time they felt scared, lost something, received a letter, laughed, etc. The other members of the group make notes, as necessary.
Allocate a time for this; monitor and correct.
When the students in each group have shared their anecdotes, they must decide which person in their group will repeat their story in first person, and who will go first.
Nominate one group to start; the whole group stands or comes to the front of the class, and all the students tell another's anecdote in the first person.
The other group(s) must decide together which students they think the anecdote belongs to.
It is then the turn of the next group, who must stand or come to the front of the classroom.
Continue until all the stories have been told.

FIFA 19 eChampions League Preview
Apr 25, 2019 May 14, 2021
The FIFA 19 esports elite will gather in Manchester on April 26-27 to kick off the group stages of the inaugural eChampions League exclusive to PlayStation 4. Here is all you need to know to enjoy the FIFA 19 eChampions League tournament.
This is the first eChampions League ever. Pros like top-ranked F2Tekkz, MsDossary and Nicolas99FC, alongside FIFA eNations Cup champion Vitality Maestro will be competing in Manchester. The best competitive FIFA will be on full display. This tournament will narrow down the field from 64 qualified competitors to the top eight. The eChampions League Final will take place in Madrid on May 31st where the first eChampions League Champion will be crowned!
Just like the Messi vs Cristiano rivalry, we are witnessing a growing rivalry for dominance on the FIFA esports circuit. F2Tekkz and MsDossary are two of the top-ranked players and, arguably, the two most dominant players on the planet right now. The British wonderkind, F2Tekkz, is having a historic competitive FIFA campaign. He has picked up a record-setting six trophies throughout the FIFA 19 Global Series including three major tournaments. On the other hand, MsDossary is the reigning FIFA eWorld Cup Champion, he is the only pro who has won a major tournament in three consecutive seasons and he has lifted two major trophies this year. The two maestros exchanged words during the last FUT Champions Cup earlier in the month. The two paired up in their console final in what turned out to be one of the best FIFA esports matches in history. After losing the latest instalment of their head-to-head matches, F2Tekkz will be looking to face his Saudi Arabian nemesis once again and the eChampions League could provide the perfect backdrop for an epic rematch.
Former MLS Defender of the Year Jimmy Conrad will host the eChampions League broadcast. Alongside him, Spencer "Spencer FC" Owen and former Premier League defender and Champions League veteran Joleon Lescott will provide shrewd commentary. All the action will be brought to you by Richard Buckley, Brandon Smith, Mark Hatcher and Dan Gaskin. The broadcast team will be rounded out by Rachel Stringer, Kyle Walker, and FIFA professional competitor Mike LaBelle. Catch all the group stage action of the eChampions League live from Manchester on the EA SPORTS Twitch Channel, and YouTube Channel starting on Friday, April 26 at 12:30 p.m. BST. See the full tournament schedule to ensure you don't miss a single moment.
A total of $280,000 USD in cash prizes will be split between the top 8 finalists, including $100,000 USD for the winner. The winner wins $100,000, while the other finalist gets $60,000.
The Tournament Format
The tournament will follow the same Swiss-style format as the FUT Champions Cups played throughout this year. For those who are new to it, here's a quick refresher.
– In the first round there will be 64 players in a single group matched against another opponent based on their total Global Series Ranking Points.
– Competitors will play up to seven matches (or 14 games) against opponents with the same tournament record.
– Competitors will not play two matches against the same opponent.
– Competitors who earn four match wins will qualify to the Knockout Stage.
– Competitors who register four match losses will be immediately eliminated from the tournament.
– The top 32 competitors will advance to a single elimination knockout stage.
– The top 8 competitors will move on to play in the eChampions League Final on May 31 in Madrid.
Don't miss any of the eChampions League group stage tournament. The action kicks off in Manchester on Friday, April 26 at 12:30 p.m. BST

ASHG Honors Sekar Kathiresan with 2018 Curt Stern Award

Physician-Scientist to Receive Award at ASHG 2018 Annual Meeting

ROCKVILLE, MD – The American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) has named Sekar Kathiresan, MD, as the 2018 recipient of the Curt Stern Award. Dr. Kathiresan is the Director of the Center for Genomic Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital, Director of the Cardiovascular Disease Initiative at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, and a Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School.
This annual award, named for the late pioneering geneticist Curt Stern, PhD, recognizes genetics and genomics researchers who have made significant scientific contributions during the past decade. ASHG will present the award, which will include a crystal plaque and $10,000 prize, on Tuesday, October 16, during the organization's 68th Annual Meeting in San Diego, California.
"Dr. Kathiresan's research leverages genetic predisposition in preventive care; his work is helping the millions of people at risk for heart attacks and cardiovascular disease," said David L. Nelson, PhD, President of ASHG. "This prestigious award is given to Dr. Kathiresan for his tireless efforts to apply his research to the clinic."
Dr. Kathiresan has pursued a systematic approach to understand the genetics underlying risk of heart attack, to discover its root causes, inform new therapeutic approaches, and identify at-risk individuals. He has distinguished non-causal factors, such as HDL cholesterol, from causal factors, such as LDL cholesterol and triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, and has identified specific mutations in the APOC3 and ANGPTL3 genes associated with a lower heart attack risk. These observations are inspiring the development of medicines to mimic these protective mutations.
In the past year, he has uncovered two additional pathways underlying heart attack risk: (1) genes that regulate the movement of inflammatory cells into the artery wall; and (2) acquired mutations in blood stem cells that increase with aging and provoke inflammation. Finally, he has developed a genetic test to predict risk of heart attack and shown that statin therapy and/or a healthier lifestyle can decrease that risk.
A member of ASHG since 2004, Dr. Kathiresan belonged to the Society's Program Committee from 2011-2014. He has been recognized for his research contributions with several honors including the Stephen Krane Outstanding Young Investigator Award in 2010 from the Massachusetts General Hospital and the Distinguished Scientist Award from the American Heart Association in 2017.
About the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG)
Founded in 1948, the American Society of Human Genetics is the primary professional membership organization for human genetics specialists worldwide. Its nearly 8,000 members include researchers, academicians, clinicians, laboratory practice professionals, genetic counselors, nurses, and others with an interest in human genetics. The Society serves scientists, health professionals, and the public by providing forums to: (1) share research results through the ASHG Annual Meeting and in The American Journal of Human Genetics; (2) advance genetic research by advocating for research support; (3) educate current and future genetics professionals, health care providers, advocates, policymakers, educators, students, and the public about all aspects of human genetics; and (4) promote genetic services and support responsible social and scientific policies.

'Keg stand!': Fraternity suspended after video appears to show dog forced to drink beer
Chelsea Robinson
Warning: The video above may be upsetting to viewersA fraternity in New York has been suspended from hosting events on campus after officials viewed a video showing a small dog being held upside down and sprayed in the mouth with a liquid from what appears to be a beer keg.In the video, one young man yells, "Let's go! Keg stand!" as the other lifts the dog upside down. "That's disgusting. A dog can't say no," neighbor Violet Avery told CBS New York. "They are young people, they want to have fun, but there is a sense of decency in the neighborhood.""You don't need to involve animals. That's very wrong to me. I don't know why they felt the need to do that," said student Lili Nash.Newsday reports that Alpha Epsilon Pi sanctioned its Hempstead chapter at Hofstra University on Long Island with a "cease and desist" order on Sunday following the Saturday incident. The university called the behavior "unacceptable" and said the chapter has been "placed on interim suspension pending an investigation." A fraternity spokesman says they hope to use the incident as a teaching moment.The 10-month-old spaniel is owned by a fraternity member and is in the possession of the Nassau County SPCA. Officials say the dog is doing fine."It's wrong on every level. It's just not rational thinking," said Gary Rogers of the Nassau County SPCA. Rogers said the owner of the dog may face charges, as he is one of the men in the video."A misdemeanor for failure to provide adequate sustenance and overdrive and torture of an animal," Rogers said.

Improving Diversity in Publishing: Who Can Lead the Change Process?
Wednesday, 14 October, 10:00am (CEST); by FBM and IPA
The publishing industry knows, and the data shows, that there is much room for improvement with regards to how inclusive and diverse the publishing sector is. But promoting diverse authors is not only a necessary moral decision, it is a critical business decision if publishers want to reach more and new readers. But how can publishing approach this challenge and tackle the obstacles that run through the entire value chain? This panel will look at current quantitative and qualitative data, discuss concepts for change and look at what role publishers, associations, and other industry partners can and must play to bring about change on this urgent issue.
Speakers include: Michiel Kolman, IPA Presidential Envoy Diversity & Inclusion; Sharmaine Lovegrove, Publisher of Dialogue Books; Sandra van Lente, Co-Author of Rethinking 'Diversity' in Publishing. Further speakers to be announced.

"Many happy returns of the day to the great man.Hope you have a great day paaji. My two best moments with him were: 1) Sharing the match-winning partnership at Sydney against Australia in the first final. 2) Receiving my test cap at Eden gardens," tweeted Rohit.

Scholarship Winners Announced
A South Carolina teenager who explores the lighting possibilities of digital photography, and a New York City young professional who uses traditional large-format media, have won scholarships to attend the Center for Railroad Photography & Art's annual Conversations about Photography conference, April 12-14 on the campus of co-sponsor Lake Forest (Illinois) College.
Peter Lewis, 18 and a native of Clemson, South Carolina, was home-schooled and now attends Clemson University as a freshman majoring in pre-business. He says, "I can't count the number of times I have gotten up at 5 o'clock on a Saturday morning to seek out a few trains. Regularly, I would ride my bike to the railroad track." Additionally, he frequently serves as a volunteer photographer at events throughout the region. See more of his work on RailPictures.net.
John Sanderson, 29, is a rising young professional photographer in New York City where he has shown his general work as well as his railroad specialty at five galleries. He is a graduate of Hunter College, New York City, in political science. Of his choice to use 4×5 and 8×10 view cameras, he says, "The larger format changed my approach to the landscape. Since I could no longer capture fast-moving objects as I could with 35mm, I became more contemplative of the moment than I was with the smaller camera. I started to see the movement of light and shadow across a scene as important as a rumbling train." See more of Sanderson's work at www.john-sanderson.com.
This is the inaugural year for conference scholarships, which cover all expenses including travel for two young or emerging photographers. Applicants had to submit ten images with a statement of purpose and meet one of three criteria: under 30 years of age, enrolled in an art-related higher-education program, or have less than five years experience in the field. Support for the effort came from the sixteen patrons of the 2012 conference. They are Darryl Bond, Norman Carlson, Charles Castner, Bon French, John Gruber, Nona Hill, Clark Johnson, Jim Koglin, Jeff Mast, Brian Matsumoto, David Mattoon, Don Phillips, Kenneth Rehor, Michael Schmidt, Jeffrey Smith, and Michael Valentine.
The eleventh annual Conversations about Photography is April 12-14, 2013, for the tenth time on the campus of co-sponsor Lake Forest College, 30 miles north of Chicago. Other sponsors include Trains, Classic Trains, Canon, Railfan & Railroad, and the Railway & Locomotive Historical Society. The event begins at 5:30 on Friday with a reception, dinner, and keynote address by Tony Reevy on his new book about O. Winston Link's photography. Saturday features a full day of presentations headlined by Norfolk Southern company photographer Casey Thomason, with a reception in the evening. Sunday morning workshops include a panel discussion on railroad journalism led by Jim Wrinn, editor of Trains magazine.
Visit the conference page for more details and to purchase tickets. Consider becoming a patron to ensuring that the scholarship program continues in 2014 and beyond.

The Center's editorial consultant, John O. "Jack" Holzhueter, received the 2011 David P. Morgan article award from the Railway & Locomotive Historical Society. Holzhueter received the award for his story "Olive W. Dennis: B&O Polymath," which appeared in issue no. 24 of the Center's journal, Railroad Heritage.

Chicago Project Expanding
The Center's innovative "Faces of Chicago's Railroad Community: Photographs by Jack Delano" exhibition has received a larger and more prominent location at the Chicago History Museum, as well as new dates. The exhibition will now appear in the Green-Field Gallery, right off the main stairs and the only elevator in the museum, ensuring that every visitor will see it. The gallery's additional space will permit using larger photographs, more artifacts, and the incorporation of contemporary photographs of portrait subjects' families. These have been made by Jack Delano's son, Pablo—a talented photographer himself and a professor of fine arts at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut. The exhibition now will open on April 4, 2014, and remain on display through August 10, 2015. As senior curator Russell Lewis explained, "Faces has thus moved up on the CHM marquee, and we are looking forward to showcasing it in a larger form and more central location."

Railroad Heritage Article Wins R&LHS Award
Jack Holzhueter's article, "Olive W. Dennis: B&O Polymath," received the 2011 David P. Morgan Article Award from the Railway & Locomotive Historical Society. The article, a collaborative effort that began with Shirley Burman Steinheimer's files about women railroaders, appeared in number 24 (2010). Holzhueter, a consultant to the Center, is a retired researcher and editor for the Wisconsin Historical Society. "We are indebted to Jack Holzhueter and those who assisted him for doing the requisite research and writing this fascinating article about a truly remarkable woman," Lyle Key wrote in the Fall-Winter issue of Railroad History, published by R&LHS.
2013 Conversations Conference Scheduled April 12-14
The next Conversations about Photography conference will be held April 12-14, 2013, at Lake Forest College. Thanks to the generosity of this year's conference patrons, for the first time scholarships (PDF application) are available for two young or emerging photographers. Watch for announcements here and on our Facebook page. Visit the conference page for a review of the 2012 event.

NYPD Machete Attack Suspect Was Reportedly Placed On FBI Terror Watchlist, Family Member Said He Was Radicalized By Islamic Extremism
The 19-year-old suspect in a New Year's Eve machete attack on New York City police officers was reportedly placed on an FBI terror watchlist because of his alleged Islamic extremist views.
According to authorities, the teenager from Wells, Maine, attacked three NYPD officers near Times Square on Saturday at roughly 10:11 p.m., attempting to strike one with a machete before hitting two other officers in the head with the weapon. The suspect was reportedly placed on an FBI terror watchlist recently after his aunt reported that he had been radicalized online and expressed a desire to fight overseas for Islamic extremists.
Authorities are investigating whether the attack was inspired by radical Islamic extremism, CBS News reported. Police believe the teenage suspect traveled via Amtrak from Maine to New York earlier last week, and sources told CBS that the NYPD was not aware the suspect was placed on an FBI terror watchlist.
This is the weapon that was recovered at the scene. https://t.co/Waaux2hUTt pic.twitter.com/EijU7QUgkQ
— NYPD NEWS (@NYPDnews) January 1, 2023
The suspect was subdued after he was shot in the shoulder by one of the officers he had attacked. All three NYPD officers were taken to a hospital and have since been released. The suspect was also taken to a hospital for treatment and is expected to survive his injuries.
One officer, identified as an eight-year veteran, sustained a laceration to the head. Another, who graduated from the police academy on Friday, suffered a skull fracture and large laceration, NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell said.
New York City Democratic Mayor Eric Adams said he spoke to one of the injured officers while he was receiving treatment. Adams said the officer was in "good spirits" and "understood that his role saved lives of New Yorkers today."
The FBI is assisting the NYPD in the investigation.

Fall is our favorite season in Yosemite. The crowds depart the Valley, including families return home with children for school. We always feel like the Valley has been liberated, with the quiet magic of the forest returning. Just step a little bit off the trail and you are quickly in your own private Yosemite . The weather is crisp but the sun is usually shining. Trails are free of snow making high country adventures possible. And, you can find a parking place again!
As rock climbers, our clan even has a special name for the season — ROCK-tober . Lower temperatures make it easier for climbers' fingers and feet to stick to the rock. Days are just long enough for adventure and the temperature for moving over the rock is not too hot, not too cold, but ahhhh… just right.
Fall attractions include the changing colors, for photography or simple admiration, hiking in areas that present a snow covering in spring but are unpleasantly hot in summer, the annual parkwide public service event Yosemite Facelift , and the migration of climbers to the Valley, including El Capitan. Look through a telescope at climbers ascending in El Capitan Meadow or try it out a little rock climbing yourself, maybe with the world-class guides at Yosemite Mountaineering School .
The only downside we can think of at all to visiting Yosemite in the fall is that waterfalls will not be running. Otherwise, we find it quite perfect, which is why October is our favorite month of the year.
Uncrowded, mostly sunny weather without the intense heat, no mosquitos, more parking spaces, access to high places, great hiking, great rock climbing, fall colors.
Most waterfalls will not run at all in the fall, or if they do, just a trickle. It's a little chilly in the mornings and evenings throughout Yosemite, and especially at higher elevations, including our homes at 5500 feet. Bring an insulated "puffy" coat, a hat and a scarf and enjoy the comfort and style of your fall outdoor wear.

Q: PHP false negative with == on strings There are lots of examples of false positives when using == to compare two strings in PHP.
For example, '1' == '1.0' is true.
However, are there any false negatives? Is there some string $a such that $a == $a is false due to type juggling?

A: No, php will not provide false negatives.  php will create false positives via type juggling as a feature (it tries to help).

PULLMAN, Wash.— Jacob H. Rooksby, dean of the Gonzaga University School of Law, will deliver the inaugural Common Reading lecture for 2018-19 on Wed., Sept. 5, at 5 p.m. in CUE 203 at Washington State University.
The public is welcome at no charge to this event, which is cosponsored by the Common Reading Program with the WSU Pre‑Law Resource Center.
First-year and other WSU students are reading the common book, "Soonish: Ten Emerging Technologies That'll Improve and/or Ruin Everything" for many classes, and enjoying extracurricular programming related to it. The lecture series allows students to learn from experts in their fields about topics raised in the book. Rooksby's presentation will be the first guest lecture of many this 2018-19 academic year.
Rooksby, a renowned expert in intellectual property law and higher education law and policy and their intersection, will speak about the legal challenges created by emerging technologies.
His scholarship has been featured in journals such as the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology, the Yale Journal of Law and Technology, and the Review of Higher Education.
Rooksby became Gonzaga law dean this summer, having formerly served as associate dean of administration and associate professor of law at Duquesne University School of Law in Pittsburgh, Penn. He earned his bachelor's degree at the College of William and Mary, and his M.Ed., J.D. and Ph.D. at the University of Virginia.
Verification of attendance at the lecture is available for WSU students.
