Many of our head and neck cancer patients know Randal Weber, M.D., as their surgeon. But Weber recently took on a new role as MD Anderson's chief patient experience officer. In this role, Weber plays an invaluable role as we strive to offer our patients and their families the best experience possible.
What do you enjoy most away from work?
Exercise, fly fishing, reading and traveling with my family.
Tell us about your time in the Navy.
Joining the service after college and medical school was a special experience for me. For a kid from Chattanooga, Tennessee, it was a wonderful opportunity to see the world. As a battalion surgeon, I was responsible for over 1,000 Marines. I learned how to be resourceful and independent; it helped me to mature as a physician and develop my confidence.
Pay attention to the details. Details matter when treating patients and can make the difference between a good and bad outcome.
How did you end up specializing in head and neck cancer?
I sought a challenging specialty, and head and neck cancer surgery is both challenging and complex. When you go home at night, you want to feel like what you did was important. Treating head and neck cancer patients has been meaningful to me and impactful for my patients.
You were previously chair of our Head and Neck department. What are some things you did as chair to foster successful improvement in patients' care and experience here?
I haven't done anything on my own – it's been a team effort. When we see a problem or issue that affects our patients' quality of care or their experience, we make changes to improve the care we're delivering. We've improved access to care, decreasing the time between the first call to the first appointment from 12 days to six days. We've changed our process for follow-up appointments for surveillance with the aim of reducing extra appointments and tests for our patients.
We've used data and worked with our surgeons to improve the success of surgeries. This meansfewer patients get readmitted to the hospital, fewer unplanned returns to the operating room and decreased costs.
I've been chair of Head and Neck for 14 years. I'm happy with our accomplishments and am ready for a new challenge. Patient care is my passion, and that's why I'm excited to help MD Anderson deliver patient-centered, value-driven care.
What are your priorities for the first year?
We're first looking to our patients for their perspectives and ask about their experiences. What has been positive and negative? What are their highest priorities so that we can focus on those to improve their experience? We'll talk to providers and ask them to identify their challenges. What are barriers to providing patient-centered care? Then, we'll bring in key leaders to look at what's in place and develop strategic priorities for improvement, based on the data from our patients.
What would you like everyone to know about the patient experience?
We all own the patient experience at MD Anderson and play a role. It's important for us to think about what we would want our experience to be like if we were patients. We'd want high-quality care and great service, and that's what we owe our patients.
We'd want high-quality care and great service, and that's what we owe our patients.

Using Terahertz Reflectance Spectroscopy to Quantify Drug Substance in Tablets
Chemical & pharmaceutical bulletin, 2012
Co-Authors: Jin Hisazumi, Tatsuya Suzuki, Tomoyuki Watanabe, Naoki Wakiyama, Katsuhide Terada
The purpose of this research is to investigate the applicability of terahertz (THz) reflectance spectroscopy for quantification of drug substance in Tablets, so as to demonstrate the feasibility for applying this technique to Tableting process monitoring. In order to acquire a suitable absorbance spectrum for this purpose, it was necessary to enhance the reflection intensity. By using an aluminum plate as a mirror at the opposite surface of the Tablet, a reasonable absorbance spectrum could be acquired to reflect the bulk information of the Tablet. To assess the limit of Tablet Thickness, linearity between the Tablet Thickness and the absorbance value was investigated using lactose and mannitol Tablets. Since linearity was found within 0.75-5.0 mm for both Tablets using 0.4 and 0.8 THz region, it was confirmed that THz reflectance spectroscopy is applicable to Tablets within at least 5.0 mm Thickness. Mannitol Tablets containing sodium salicylate as the model drug substance were used to investigate the quantitative performance of this technique. It was confirmed that the established calibration model was acceptable for this quantification because of the root-mean-squared error of cross-validation (RMSECV) being 1.95%. In order to evaluate the applicability of this technique, content quantitative performance in double layered Tablets having active and placebo layers were assessed. Since this calibration model achieved the root-mean-squared error of prediction (RMSEP) of 1.42% for the double layered Tablets, this technique was considered feasible even if the drug substance is localized in the Tablets.
Development of a method for nondestructive NIR transmittance spectroscopic analysis of acetaminophen and caffeine anhydrate in intact bilayer Tablets.
Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, 2010
Co-Authors: Masatomo Ito, Tatsuya Suzuki, Shuichi Yada, Hiroaki Nakagami, Etsuo Yonemochi, Hiroshi Teramoto, Katsuhide Terada
Calibration models for nondestructive NIR analysis of API (active pharmaceutical ingredient) contents in two separate layers of intact bilayer Tablets were established. These models will enable the use of NIR transmittance spectroscopy in bilayer Tableting processes for the control of API contents in separate layers. Acetaminophen and caffeine anhydrate were used as APIs, and Tablets were made by the direct compression method. Their NIR spectra were measured in the transmittance mode. The reference assay was performed by HPLC. Calibration models were generated by the partial least-squares (PLS) regression. The initial calibration generated models with insufficient linearity and accuracy because the fluctuation range of Tablet Thickness was excessively large and irrelevant information on the Thickness fluctuation was included in the models. By narrowing the fluctuation range to determine the proper range for acceptable prediction accuracy, it was confirmed that calibration models with less irrelevant information can be generated when the range was 4.30 ± 0.06 mm or narrower. Furthermore, the fluctuation range of 4.30 ± 0.06 mm was considered to be empirically valid in covering the fluctuation actually observed in ordinary Tableting processes. Thus, the sample Tablets within this range were used to generate the final calibration models, and calibration models sufficient in linearity and accuracy were established. In addition, it was proven that controlling the irradiated side was unnecessary. Namely, it is not necessary to keep the same side of sampled Tablets for the online NIR analysis during bilayer Tableting. It is useful, in order to obtain adequate calibration models, to evaluate the variable factors that affect the linearity and accuracy of the generated models and restrict the range of models or use a subset of prepared samples. Loading vectors, explained variances, and correlation coefficients between components and scores are important for the evaluation of variable factors.
Development of a method for the determination of caffeine anhydrate in various designed intact tables by near-infrared spectroscopy: A comparison between reflectance and transmittance technique
Co-Authors: Masatomo Ito, Tatsuya Suzuki, Shuichi Yada, Akira Kusai, Hiroaki Nakagami, Etsuo Yonemochi, Katsuhide Terada
Using near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, an assay method which is not affected by such elements of Tablet design as Thickness, shape, embossing and scored line was developed. Tablets containing caffeine anhydrate were prepared by direct compression at various compression force levels using different shaped punches. NIR spectra were obtained from these intact Tablets using the reflectance and transmittance techniques. A reference assay was performed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Calibration models were generated by the partial least-squares (PLS) regression. Changes in the Tablet Thickness, shape, embossing and scored line caused NIR spectral changes in different ways, depending on the technique used. As a result, noticeable errors in drug content prediction occurred using calibration models generated according to the conventional method. On the other hand, when the various Tablet design elements which caused the NIR spectral changes were included in the model, the prediction of the drug content in the Tablets was scarcely affected by those elements when using either of the techniques. A comparison of these techniques resulted in higher predictability under the Tablet design variations using the transmittance technique with preferable linearity and accuracy. This is probably attributed to the transmittance spectra which sensitively reflect the differences in Tablet Thickness or shape as a result of obtaining information inside the Tablets.

Quantitative Analysis of Pharmaceutical Bilayer Tablets Using Transmission Raman Spectroscopy
Journal of Pharmaceutical Innovation, 2015
Co-Authors: Yan Zhang, Gary Mcgeorge
Introduction Transmission Raman Spectroscopy (TRS) has become an increasingly applied technology in the analysis of pharmaceutical Tablets for quality control purposes and developing formulation and process understanding. One area that has received only cursory attention to date is that of bilayered Tablets that represents an unusually challenging situation. This study aims to provide an understanding of the relationship of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) content and the transmission Raman spectral response in bilayered pharmaceutical Tablets to facilitate development of quantitative models for the prediction of API content in multilayer Tablets. Methods and Results The Raman intensity was considered as a function of the Raman photon generation and decay in a layer of interest (the API layer) and Raman photon decay from a second layer (the non-API layer). To separate and understand the various contributions, a variety of Tablet configurations were studied and it was found that (1) with increasing the Thickness of the non-API layer, the API Raman signal displayed an exponential decay as a function of the non-API layer Thickness as well as the total Tablet Thickness; (2) when only changing API concentration, the Raman signal linearly responds to the API content; and (3) when increasing the weight/Thickness of the API layer and keeping the non-API layer constant, the Raman signal reaches a maximum at a particular Thickness and then decays as Tablets become thicker. The complex spectral response was effectively modeled according to a modified Schrader, Kubelka-Munk model where both the Raman photon generation factor and photon losses were accounted for. Coupling the results of these studies together yields a comprehensive approach for modeling multi-component bilayer Tablets. The addition of a beam enhancer on the bottom surface allowed for a selective over-enhancement of the bottom layer, which helps in the analysis of thin layers or coatings.

Q: Multiple SAM templates on one local emulator Is there a way to deploy multiple SAM templates to one emulator.
If I have multiple teams working on their own lambda stacks, each having a SAM template. I would like to be able to run a bigger composite application which may need to call any one of these lambdas but without having to start a local emulator container for each of the lambdas.
# I'd like to start one client
 lambda_client = boto3.client('lambda',
                                 region_name="us-west-2",
                                 endpoint_url="http://127.0.0.1:3001",
                                 use_ssl=False,
                                 verify=False,

Fiji is a strikingly beautiful country, consisting of more than 300 pint-size islands. Encircling each island is a warm, turquoise lagoon busy with vibrant coral and fish life, while onshore swaying coconut trees line white sandy beaches. The Fijian's who call these islands home welcome visitors with genuine warmth, generous smiles and a laid-back nature. It is this paradise, which you must discover when you explore Fiji with South Sea Cruises.
One of the features that make Fiji so appealing is that each island offers its own unique slice of paradise. Some islands are perfect for families, while some are more suited to couples seeking romance. Many of the islands have a great range of activities on offer while others just focus on the simplicity of kicking-back and relaxing.
There's no doubt you'll find your own tropical paradise in Fiji by visiting her islands with South Sea Cruises.
On each of the Fiji Island Day Cruises we outline the features and highlights that make each island special in its own right.


I quite like Taeku Lee's identity points. It encourages people with multiple identities to declare them more reliably than other methods. So when I had the chance to set questions on a survey in multi-ethnic Bosnia and Herzegovina, the question had to be on it. Alas, it didn't make it beyond the pilot.
There were 50 individuals in the pilot, and only 4 of them chose more than one identity. The other 46 put all their identity points into one identity.
As we were under pressure to shorten the survey, and the survey wasn't really about identity, we did not pursue identity points any further. What I really would like to know is what the result would have been in 1991 before the war, but that's something we'll never know. Or perhaps someone will one day run a survey using identity points for children of mixed descent in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In any case, Bosnia and Herzegovina is obviously a special case, and it illustrates how entrenched ethnic identities can/have become in a place otherwise noted for its diversity.

Huron University College is a university college affiliated with the University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario, Canada. Incorporated on 5 May 1863, Huron is the founding institution of the University of Western Ontario.

It was established in 1863 by two Anglican clergyman and is the oldest affiliated institution of the University of Western Ontario. Huron is also home to an Anglican seminary. Huron predates the establishment of the University of Western Ontario by 15 years and acted as a founding element of the larger university. In the latter half of the 20th century, Huron evolved from its theological roots into a modern liberal arts college.

History

Huron was founded on 5 May 1863 by Benjamin Cronyn (first Bishop of Huron) and Isaac Hellmuth (Archdeacon of Huron), as an evangelical low-church alternative to the high-church Trinity University in Toronto. The first class of 13 students was taught by Isaac Hellmuth (Huron's first principal) in the winter of 1863.

The evangelical section of the Church of England obtained a charter for Huron, under the name of the Western University of London in 1878. It has been a University of Western Ontario founding institution since 1878 (the oldest affiliated institution of the University of Western Ontario).

William A. Joanes (architect) designed an addition to Huron College's original property in 1891.

Over one-fifth of Canadian Anglican chaplains who served in the First and Second World Wars were trained at Huron. A plaque was unveiled on 11 November 1997 to commemorate the lives of 18 Huron graduates who died in the First and Second World Wars.

Its original property, known as Rough Park, occupied the block bounded by Grosvenor, St. George and St. James Streets. In 1951, Huron moved to its present location and has since seen a growth in not only student enrollment, but also in its residence facilities, classrooms, library, and faculty offices. Huron's faculty of Arts and Social Science has been in partnership with the University of Western Ontario since 1956.

An Act respecting Huron was given Royal Assent on 23 June 2000. The name was changed to Huron University College on 23 June 2000. The Huron University College Corporation's Arms, Supporters, Flag and Badge were registered with the Canadian Heraldic Authority on 15 September 2005.

Administration

Governance
Huron is currently governed by the Ontario Huron University College Act, 2000.  The act provides for an executive board composed of The Bishop of Huron, the Coadjutor and Suffragan Bishop or Bishops of Huron, the principal of Huron, the president of the Huron's Students' Council, the deans of Huron, the president of the alumni association, a full-time student from each of the Faculty of Theology and Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, and up to 12 additional members.  The Act also provides for an Academic Council to oversee issues relating to the academic life of Huron College.

As an affiliate of the University of Western Ontario, Huron is also subject to an Affiliation Agreement which outlines the relationship between both universities.  Under this agreement, the university grants degrees on behalf of Huron College and has authority to set common academic and admission standards in consultation with Huron and the other affiliate colleges, Brescia College and King's College.  Huron retains the right to grant Honorary Doctor of Divinity degrees.

The strategic plan for 2005–2010 aims to "nurture a sense of community respectful of individual differences and responsive to individual needs; to support an active student life which encourages the personal and intellectual growth of its members; and, through its chapel and theological programs, to affirm its heritage as an Anglican university."

School structure

The majority of students are enrolled in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, which offers over 60 undergraduate programs of study.  The remainder of students are enrolled in undergraduate and graduate programs through the Faculty of Theology.

Campus property
Rough Park, its original property, occupied the block bounded by Grosvenor, St. George and St. James Streets in London Ontario. In 1951, Huron moved to its present location steps from the University of Western Ontario.

Huron is located on the western side of Western Road, across from the centre of the University of Western Ontario Main Campus. The University Community Centre (UCC) and the Weldon Library are also nearby.

The Administrative Wing includes the Silcox Memorial Library, the Great Hall and the Chapel of St. John the Evangelist. The Valley Wing includes Jago Courtyard and classrooms. The Huron dining hall is steps from the Western campus. Classroom W12, one of Huron's largest classrooms, which holds 120 seats, is used for many first-year courses and larger lectures. The Kingsmill Room in Huron's main building is used for larger events such as convocations and guest lectures.

Chapel
Huron is also home to the collegiate-style Chapel of St. John the Evangelist, which was built in the 1950s to replace the original chapel. The chapel has a seating capacity of 160 and includes a Casavant organ. There are also a number of Orthodox icons, including a 19th-century hand-painted Russian icon of the Holy Trinity. The chapel is open to students of all denominations.

Silcox Memorial Library
The Huron University College Library is located on the main floor of the administration wing of the Huron campus. The library has a collection of over 165,000 volumes. The Kimel Family Information Commons has 20 PC workstations and wireless Internet access. Comfortable reading alcoves and private group study rooms are available in addition to personal study carrels. All registered students, faculty and staff at Huron and Western, as well as qualified guest borrowers may borrow from the Huron Library.

Campus life

Residence
Huron has three residence halls:  Hellmuth Hall, a co-ed residence accommodating approximately 98 first-year students; O'Neil/Ridley Hall, a co-ed dormitory, 185 first-year students; and Southwest Residence, a suite-style residence building, 56 first-year students. Huron also has two houses on campus, Brough House and Henderson House, which provide lodging for first-year and upper-year students.

Huron University College Students' Council

The Huron University College Students' Council (HUCSC) is a student government organization and non-profit corporation at Huron. It is committed to enhancing the educational experience and quality of life for all undergraduate students at Huron University College. The HUCSC works toward this mission in three main ways:

- Amplifying the collective student voice through advocacy on student issues, concerns, and priorities to Huron administration, faculty, and other community stakeholders.

- Providing programming to students in the form of social and academic events, as well as services like the HUCSC Clubs System, Intramurals, and the campus bar, the Beaver Dam.

- Creating opportunities for meaningful involvement in the Huron community, service-learning, and leadership-development for students.

There are typically 70+ members and positions on the HUCSC ranging from executive positions, elected councillors and representatives, hired bartenders, commissioners, coordinators, and associate vice-presidents. The HUCSC consists of 6 portfolios: the President's Portfolio, the Student Affairs Portfolio, the Student Events Portfolio, the Finance and Administration Portfolio, the Communications Portfolio, and the Governance Portfolio.

Academics

Huron offers programs in the arts and social sciences, business, and theology. Degrees are granted by Western University. Students are free to take up to forty percent of their courses at Western, and thus can even complete a major at Western.

Students may choose to pursue a dual degree in collaboration with the Ivey School of Business. Moreover, Huron has established a partnership with Harvard Business School, enabling students to earn online a Credential of Readiness (HBX CORe).

The Faculty of Theology has 56 students enrolled in its Master of Divinity and Master of Theological Studies programs. The faculty includes Ingrid Mattson, who is the chair of Islamic Studies.

Research Opportunities

Centre for Undergraduate Research Learning
Through the Centre for Undergraduate Research Learning (CURL) students apply for funding and research fellowships. After completing a research project, they are able to present their findings in a capstone CURL Showcase event at the end of the year.

Liberated Arts Undergraduate Research Journal
To Liberated Arts, a peer-reviewed academic journal, students submit original research. This is an open access publication. It is available online and at the University of Western Ontario and Huron University College libraries. The ISSN number is 2369–1573.

Our previous logo with its vibrant colors and seven overlapping spheres represented the plurality of iLEAP's work with leaders from around the world. However, with our new mission directed exclusively on Japan, it is as if we are now focusing on just one of the spheres. We felt that, if one were to get closer to the details of one of the spheres, they would see that in fact the solid color was not solid at all–but made of up a brilliant mix of hues. In this way, our new logo maintains the spirit of our previous one, but highlights the uniqueness in each circle.
For many participants, they will find our new logo to be a familiar image as it has been on the cover of our iLEAP journals for nearly 5 years. While we considered a number of options, this best captured the new direction of iLEAP–familiar, yet fresh and alive.
Finally, the image itself is intended to represent a dandelion. Dandelions often thrive in adverse circumstances and find ways to spread their life force in some of the most difficult conditions. Resilient, adaptable and open to wanderlust, the dandelion captures many of the leadership sensibilities that we are looking to grow in our young Japanese participants. With a new mission to nurture a new generation of globally-minded leaders in Japan with the inner and outer resources to pursue lives of purpose and to advance social good in the world, we seek to cultivate more of this leadership.

HomeHome TechXiaomi Smart Door Bell 2 and Lite Edition Launched
Xiaomi Smart Door Bell 2 and Lite Edition Launched
Xiaomi has been launching various new products for its ongoing Mi Festival. The company is primarily aiming at different IoT appliances in a smart home, which includes the latest Smart Door Bell 2 and Smart Door Bell Lite Edition.
Starting with the Xiaomi Smart Door Bell 2, the company has launched another home appliance that serves the purpose of security for houses. It is essentially a small doorknob with a camera, intercom and ring button. This allows for users to talk in a two-way audio system to enquire regarding who is at the door -without opening the door itself. The camera of the Xiaomi Smart Door Bell 2 records at 1080p and can recognized humanoid figures thanks to AI assistance.
The device also supports the XiaoAI voice assistant and can be remotely accessed and operated. It has a 100-degree field of view and can sense people from up to 5 meters away. When paired with a smart display or a smartphone, this allows users to receive notifications when the door is rung, allowing a conversation without ever having to open the door. Thus, further helping in keeping users informed and safe.
Alongside this, Xiaomi also launched the Smart Door Bell Lite Edition as well. As the name suggests, it is a cut down version of the Smart Door Bell 2 and is priced appropriately too. This version also features XiaoAI voice assistant and can even be operated remotely as well. However, its camera only captures in HD quality but are capable of infrared footage during night time. Its field of view is also 100 degrees, but the range is only 3 meters.
The Xiaomi Smart Door Bell 2 is priced at 199 Yuan, which roughly translates to about 28 US Dollars. On the other hand, the Smart Door Bell Lite Edition carries a price tag of half of the former, coming in at only 99 Yuan (or about 14 US Dollars). Notably, both devices look nearly identical and are currently available for pre-order on Xiaomi's official website in China.
Although it is a formidable gadget, looking at previous versions, I really want Xiaomi to solve some details in its smart bells.
One of them is resistance to water and dust. As much as it can withstand some rain, the bells are not suitable for constantly putting in the rain. That is, it is perfect to have inside a porch; however, little advantage to have it on the wall that connects the house to the street.
Then I also feel like having the possibility to contact wires. For those that do not want to take the time to change batteries every six months. I believe that with these two features, we would have an even more complete gadget.

AFT Leaders on Proposed Deal to End West Virginia Teacher Strike
WASHINGTON—AFT President Randi Weingarten and AFT-West Virginia President Christine Campbell issued a statement on the proposed deal to end the West Virginia teachers strike.
While it's not over we expect the deal to pass. Weingarten said: "I'm proud to be in West Virginia today to stand with the educators and school personnel who stood strong and stood together to fight for what they need to do their jobs and stay in the profession, and for what their kids need to thrive.
"West Virginia has a long history of labor activism—where right often met might. Today, right beat might in the truest tradition of Mother Jones. That victory is a testament to the voice and determination, the resilience and compassion, and the collective power and organizing of the educators of this state. The governor and the Legislature heard, finally, and acted, we are grateful for that.
"While the strike has been front-page news for days, what was missed was that, for months, educators and school personnel were having conversations with on another—on Facebook, in person—about the issues they were facing and what to do about them. By the time the decision to strike was made, workers were united in their demand for action, the unions were together in solidarity, and parents and community members were there to support them. Teachers and their
unions even ensured that our strike and disaster relief funds could be used to feed the students in the state who get breakfast and lunch at school.
"Make no mistake, the attacks on working people aren't just happening in the classroom or on the job, they're happening in the Supreme Court and in the state legislatures around the country. But teachers and support personnel in West Virginia showed that, as corporate and right-wing interests try to thwart our voice even more, we will rise up. If you push us to the brink, we will fight for ourselves, our families and our students. We want to teach. We want to do this job, and we proved it during this strike. This isn't the end of the battle; teachers are still not paid well enough, and they still don't have enough resources. But in West Virginia, lawmakers were put on notice that they needed to act in the best interests of kids and workers, not for special interests. And if they didn't learn that lesson through this strike, workers will make sure they do in November."
AFT-West Virginia President Christine Campbell said:
"This is a huge victory and symbol of respect for every teacher and school support staff member in the state of West Virginia. Thousands of educators and their supporters came to the state Capitol for the last week to ensure the public and the Legislature understand how important their jobs are and that they have been underpaid and undervalued. The strike and its strong outcome should be seen as a shot across the bow to every lawmaker who may underestimate the support teachers have, the hard job they do and their willingness to stand up for what they deserve as they educate the next generation."


Not The Barnet Times: Grumpy New Year!
Don't Call Me Dave wishes all his readers a Happy New Year. At the same time, he intends to have a moan at the £1.8 million cost of the firework display organised by Boris Johnson.
The event was financed by the London Development Agency and the office of the Mayor of London - or taxpayers to use the correct term.
We are in the midst of a financial crisis. Due to the profligacy of Gordon Brown and his discredited Labour regime, the current government has been forced to implement the most severe austerity measures of a generation. Local Authorities the length and breadth of the UK - including the GLA - are similarly being required to make massive budget cutbacks.
There is no question that it was a most fantastic and well organised display, but public servants who face redundancy in the coming weeks, and residents facing the loss of vital front line services will not be impressed that money can none-the-less be provided for a giant party which, quite coincidentally of course, portrays the Mayor in a good light.
We expect our political leaders to lead by example. The Conservative Prime Minister has pointed out that we face tough times in the year ahead. The Conservative Mayor of London, meanwhile, appears to be singing from a different hymn sheet.
"...the current government has been forced to implement the most severe austerity measures of a generation."
The severity is, as yet, unproven, and maybe still reversible, if Mr Cameron is overtaken by "events, dear boy, events."
implemented by the generation educated during Thatchereconomics.


We hare in the grief of the City of Boston at the passing of former Mayor Thomas Menino. The mayor was known to be a champion of the people and of diversity. His departure from this life, even though he had stepped down from his office will leave a void in the hearts of many. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.


The UK's four largest supermarkets are among the 20 largest retailers in Europe, according to a new Kantar Retail study. In part, the success of Tesco, which is in second place in the new European rankings, Sainsbury's (in tenth place), and Asda Walmart (11th) is down to their multichannel strength. Lagging behind is Morrisons (in 14th place), which has yet to launch its online grocery service but is expected to do so early next year.
But, while Tesco's UK £1bn turnaround programme, which includes a focus on online, convenience shopping and refurbished stores, is seen as boosting Tesco's recovery in this country, Kantar says that it must also "focus on its price, quality and service in other parts of Europe if it is to continue to compete on the European and global stage" and retain number two place in Europe, which it currently predicts that it will. Kantar says that Tesco is currently struggling with consumer confidence in central and Eastern Europe and that could have an impact.
Elsewhere it predicts that by 2018 Amazon will be the second largest global retailer. In Europe, it currently places the pureplay in 23rd place, with estimated European sales of £17.5bn but predicts these will grow to £40.7bn by 2018, putting it into ninth place. Himanshu Pal, Kantar Retail's Director for Retail Insights, said: "This top 20 European ranking shows real opportunity for UK retailers if they continue to invest in the right areas. For example, there are already visible signs of improvements in Tesco stores with regards to quality and service, which are likely to get better with the integration of Euphorium Bakery, Harris + Hoole cafes and Giraffe restaurants.
Both Kantar's current estimated European sales figures for the top 20 retailers, and predictions for five years hence can be seen in chart below.

MHS Alumni plan centennial celebration for old school house
Lauren Blankenship
From its origins of one-roomed schools to the building standing now, the schools of Merryville have evolved just like the town.
This year marks a special milestone for one of the past Merryville schools and the first school built within city limits.
In October of 1919, the town of Merryville opened the doors of a stately two-story brick schoolhouse for the 1919-1920 school year.
This year marks the building's centennial.
The school became a landmark over the 60 years it stood, but as the town developed, the need for a bigger school came too. In the 1970s the red brick building was demolished.
Today, 100 years later, the original location of the school is now a parking lot. The school building was beloved by the citizens who attended school in it and drove past it every day. Though it has been gone for years, the Merryville Alumni Association is making sure the historic building is remembered and celebrated 100 years after it was built.
The Merryville Alumni Association is celebrating the 100th birthday of the building next years at Merryville High Homecoming Week.
Jessica Chaney Ramirez and the rest of the Merryville Alumni Association are hard at work planning the event and are looking for other Panthers who may want to help out or spread the word.
Ramirez is confident the Centennial celebration will a great time for all and is excited to hear from any Panthers who may want to help to make the celebration a roaring success.
Individuals with Merryville High School, past and present, are encouraged to become involved in the planning and for next year's reunion and celebration.
This celebration will take place during the 2019 Homecoming week. To help with the planning or for more information contact any MHS alumni association officer at the email MHSalumniassociation@outlook.com or go to merryvillehighschoolalumni.com.

Channel: Tim Humble
Series: Tim Humble - Power of Dhikr
Go away and change my dad

do me a favor.
alone.
Don't leave me
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh Welcome to another episode of the power of liquor. We're continuing to talk about some of the virtues and the benefits of remembering Allah subhanho wa Taala.
We're talking about these benefits and these virtues so that we can motivate ourselves to be from those people who remember a lot much from those men and those women who are Lost Planet Allah says, Those men and those women who remember a lot much I wanted to start this episode by reading a Hadith, which is narrated by Eben magia and Timothy and Habana Hakeem and others from the narration of Abby's Hawk from a ver, Abby Muslim, that he witnessed Abu hurayrah May Allah be pleased with him and Abu Seidel, Quadri and those to witness that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
if a slave says La ilaha illallah wa Allahu Akbar. So a servant of Allah He says, La ilaha illallah wa Allahu Akbar
Allah Tabata, Kota, Allah says sadaqa AB de la ilaha illa Allah, what
Allah says, my slave has spoken the truth, my slave has told the truth. There is no god worthy of worship except me. And I am the greatest. If a slave of Allah says La ilaha illallah wa de, there is no god worthy of worship except Allah alone. Allah says sada Abdi my slave has told the truth, La Ilaha Illa Anna YT there is no god except me alone. If a slave of Allah says La Ilaha Illa La La Sherry Keller, a law says sidecar Abdi my slavers told the truth, La Ilaha in Anna luxury Kelly, there is no god worthy of worship except me. And there is no partner with me. Again, if the slave says La ilaha illAllah la Hulu Allah hand Allah says sada AB de la isla de Lille MOOC Wali at hand,
I have all of the dominion and I have all of all praises due to me. If a slave says La Ilaha in La La La hawla wala quwata illa Billah. Allah says sadhaka Abdi, my slave has said spoken the truth, La ilaha illa Allah, Allah, Allah Wa La quwata illa B, and there is no god worthy of worship except me. And there is no way to change anything, no movement, no power, except by me. And then I heard he said something that one of the narrator's he didn't understand. And so he said, What did he say? He said, Whoever is given these words at his death, will not be touched by the hellfire. Whoever is given these words at the death of his moment of death, he will not be touched by the hellfire.
From the benefits of remembering Allah azza wa jal much is that it saves you from the danger of hypocrisy, and it makes you safe and secure from being a monastic from being a hypocrite. Because Allah azza wa jal says about the moon if you're clean when he's describing them, what are your guru and Allah illa karela. They only remember Allah a tiny little bit. And so they only remember a lot, a tiny little bit. And you remember a lot a lot. This is giving you a guarantee of safety and security that you will not be classed amongst the Monaro team. And that's why kab may Allah be pleased with him said whoever frequents the remembrance of Allah will be free from nifa whoever
frequently mentions Allah will be free from the FARC and perhaps this is why Allah subhanaw taala finishes Satomura 14 the surah of the Manasa t by saying yeah, you have Latina Amman or you who believe and then ally So Joe says la
Amala Kumara Allah to come and victory LA, don't allow your wealth and don't allow your children to take you away from the remembrance of Allah when they Yes, I Valley Casa La ecohome aloha see Ron, and those
People who do that they will be the losers, those people who are going to lose out in the end. So panela think about this ally So we just finished a song when I feel cool by encouraging the people who believe to remember Allah and mentioning that those who don't remember Allah Leah's Quran Allah Allah Karim karela tomonaga Khun who don't remember Allah except for a small amount, those are the people who are going to be the ultimate losers in the sight of Allah azza wa jal from the benefits of remembering Allah is that remembering Allah makes you close to him and gives you a kind of closeness that isn't for anybody else. It's not the closeness that allows knowledge is surrounding
you or that Allah sees everything you do, because this is for everybody. But a special kind of closeness that is for the one who remembers Allah subhanho wa Taala much because Allah azza wa jal says in a la hammer, I live in a taco when levena, homosapien, Indeed Allah is with those people who fear Him and are pious towards him. And those people who are more senior. And there's no doubt that one of the greatest forms of taqwa and the greatest forms of SSR in Islam is that you remember Allah azza wa jal much, and Allah says, Allah who masabi Allah is with those people who are patient. So this kind of special,
special, Allah being with you in a special way our last pantalla being you being closer to Allah being closer to the one that you are remembering, there's no doubt the more you remember Allah, the closer you will be to Him. From the benefits of remembering Allah azza wa jal is that it brings you good things, it brings you blessings and it keeps bad things out of your life. Allah azza wa jal says in the Quran, in no law her you there are any levina Allah, Allah azza wa jal
protects and defends those who believe. And Allah subhanaw taala defends them by keeping them away from evils that are going to happen to them. And those who believe that Eman one of the characteristics of the people of Eman is that they are those people who remember a lot much so by remembering Allah azza wa jal much, then, if this is something which will keep you away from bad things and bring further good things to happen to you. We have a Hadeeth, which is the heartbeat of Abu hurayrah, which is that the there were some poor people in Medina from the poor mahadji room, they came to the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and they said, O Messenger of
Allah, the people of wealth, and the people of richness and the people who had a lot of you know, they were very rich, they were very wealthy. They pray, like we pray, and they fast, like we fast, and they have the benefit of the extra wealth, and they are able to perform hajj and we're not able to perform hajj and they're able to go and fight and they're able to give sadaqa and we're not able to do so because we don't have the wealth to do it.
So the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, shall I not teach you something
that you will be able to reach those who have proceeded you to catch up with those who have preceded you, and you will be able to proceed those who come after you.
And nobody will be better than you except the one who does the same as what you do. They said, Oh, yes, or messenger of Allah teach us something that we can use to catch up with those who have preceded us, and we're going to proceed those who come after us, nobody's going to be better than us, it less they do what we do. And he said, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that to set behold, that you do tasveer you say Subhan Allah, and you say Alhamdulillah and you say Allahu Akbar, after every Salah. So this is the vicar that we do after every Salah that we do on our fingers on the fingers of our right hand, and we say Subhana Allah Subhana, Allah Subhana Allah, and we do so 33 times and we
say Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah 33 times. And again, we say Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar 33 times and we use the, the breaks in our fingers or the the, the marks in our fingers and thumb to count those on our right hand only. And this is the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And so he taught this to the poor people, in order for them to be able to catch up with all of those things that the richer people were doing, that they were not able to do. The richer people were able to participate in the army. They couldn't because they couldn't afford the horses or the camels. The richer people were able to give sadaqa they couldn't because
they didn't have any extra wealth to give it from the richer people were able to perform hajj, and they couldn't
Wouldn't because they didn't have the wealth to be able to perform the Hajj. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, I'm going to teach you something to catch up to them. And it is that you say after every prayer Subhana Allah, and then you say at Hamdulillah, and then you say, Allahu Akbar, and there are different durations, there is an aeration of 33 times in which you go over your whole hand twice around, and then you finish with your thumb. And there is an array of 10 times where you count 1-234-567-8910. So this is how we do so we do so on our, on the fingers of our right hand, we don't use our left hand, and we don't use any other form of sort of counters or beads
or anything like that, or rosary beads, we simply do the remembrance of Allah on our right hand. And that is from those things that those people were able to do. But the Hadith continues. And so what happens in the Hadith at the end of the Hadith is they come and they complain to the Messenger of Allah again, and they say to the Messenger of Allah, the problem is that these people who are able to go to Hajj and Umrah and they're able to participate in the Muslim army. When they heard this hadith What do you think they did? When they heard this hadith they started to do this test by themselves, they started to remember Allah and to do the vicar of Allah themselves. And so when they
did that, they caught up again to those people. And so the the poor people came again to the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and they said, these rich people who do all the things we can't do, they started to do the test be after the Salah, because they asked us and we told them, and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Valley, Carfagna la UT he may share this is the grace of Allah, He gives it to whoever he wills. That's enough for this episode in sha Allah, Allah we do hope that you will join us for a future episode of the power of victim in sha Allah Allah until then Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh

Interview with Secretary General of l'Organisation internationale de la francophonie
Here's the text of an interview with the Secretary General of l'Organisation internationale de la francophonie, an interview conducted a week before the next sommet de la francophonie which is taking place in Kinshasa (last time it was Quebec). Here's part of it:
Q: Le sommet de la francophonie will take place from the 12th to the 14th of October in Kinshasa, capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). What is the future of the French language in a world that seems dominated by English?
Let's keep in mind that in 2050 the French language will have about 715 million users in the world, of which 85% will be in Africa, a continent with a rapid demographic growth. We count a user of the language as one that speaks, reads and writes French. And in Africa, the centre of the francophonie will be the DRC, which will have a greater population than France.
Q: So Africa represents the future of French?
A: In former colonial countries in Africa, there are several national languages. But you need one to communicate, administer the country and operate the country's institutions. This language, shared by all, was decided to be French, in order to not favour a single national language. In any case, the honest man of the 21st century must have a mother tongue and at least two major languages of international communication - English, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, maybe Chinese, Hindi or Russian tomorrow...

Weston High School's baseball team gives the ultimate gift during others' time of need
by: Chris Demirdjian
Sometimes if you can't give a gift, you can be the present in someone's life.
"I mean, it's really fun, " says Weston baseball second baseman, Braden Theriot. "It's a blessing to be able to come up there to make these kids' day and do something good for them."
It was a regular day for Weston High School's baseball team, but essentially Christmas morning for dozens of young children in Ruston. The kids were the recipients of love and items handed out.
"It's a surreal experience that we get to give these kids a good experience and come out here and do the best we can, " says Layton Garrett, Weston baseball pitcher and outfielder. "And, really shows us we can't take anything for granted. And, how lucky and blessed we are to do the things that we're able to do."
They first handed out gifts to those at the Lincoln Parish Early Childhood Learning Center.
"I always enjoy doing good things for people who may not have a chance to get in on some of the stuff that people like me usually do, " says Cooper Delaney, Weston baseball pitcher and third baseman. "I was really excited to come here and excited to have the opportunity to come up here and make Christmas special for some people who don't usually have something like this."
"We have never had a group of young men come to our school just for our kids, " says Mechelle Brown, self-contained special education teacher. "They need to be commended on it."
All of the credit the Wolves baseball team received were in the form of smiles on the faces of many young children.
"Oh, it's great, " says Tayt Culpepper, Weston baseball pitcher. "And, make these kids' day? Just warms your heart."
The team also donated their time at Little Helpers in Ruston, and at a foster care facility in the city. Aside from handing out more gifts, there were lessons to be learned.
"Some of them don't have the ability to go out on the field and do what we do everyday, " says Theriot. "This is really just a blessing to give them something back."
"Makes me feel good that we're out here doing this, and I wouldn't want it any other way, " says Garrett.
"They just make me think how thankful we are to be like we are, " says Culpepper.

Washington Post Article Critical of Baffert
June 25, 2021	by gdpetty56 0 Comments
BOB BAFFERT (Darron Cummings (AP) & Washington Post)
The Washington post recently published an article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2021/06/18/bob-baffert-horse-deaths-drug-violations/
A few thoughts regarding some quotes from article:
"He'll do anything to win, and he's got all his bases covered politically," Barry Irwin, owner of 2011 Kentucky Derby winner Animal Kingdom, said of Baffert. "And because of that, he has become arrogant as hell. He's Mr. Teflon."
By way of editorial comment, I know Barry Irwin, he's a tough guy and a straight shooter…
And like all things, success leads people to think they are bullet proof when it comes to following the rules. That said, the drug rules are so complicated that now they are almost impossible to follow and my racehorse trainer friends tell me they constantly have to guess about what the right dosage for each horse will be so it doesn't trigger a positive test. They also tell me that the new no tolerance rules make it worse not better. Suffice to say, it's complicated. I have published a few blog post regarding these issues here: https://olddominionhorseracingnews.com/2021/05/12/medication-explained/ and here: https://olddominionhorseracingnews.com/2021/05/12/update-and-explanation-medina-spirit-positive-test/
Another pull quote from WP article, I have to say I agree with what the lawyer for Medina Spirit's owner said:
"The lawyers said that taking into account Baffert's estimate of how many horses he has in his care, a count that differs from the starts data, "the number of deaths of horses in Bob's barn is consistent with what would normally be expected from the horse population in general."
If you look at the table at the beginning of the article it shows Baffert as having the most deaths per 1000 starts. The trainers on the list average 61.7 horse deaths.
When I used the lawyers' number of 72 deaths as opposed to 74, Baffert's number is 8.07 which is a pinch lower than Jeff Bonde's (8.12) who is 2nd on the WP list. If I scale the number back to 70 as the attorney suggest, his number is 7.85 which is still seems too high. When you do the math the percentage for all ten on that list it's 6.22. But, when you do the math the total number of deaths is still shocking as it adds up to be 98,760…
The national rate for all of U.S. is 1.53 and that is why California has been under so much scrutiny the last 5 years.
ARCI President Ed Martin said the rules limiting race-day medications have been tightened not out of concern for performance enhancement but to prevent breakdowns. "There's a recognition that certain substances are normal in equine care," Martin said, "but if that horse still requires that, then maybe you shouldn't run the horse."
Arthur and CHRB investigators inspected Baffert's barn, reviewed veterinary records and interviewed Baffert, who was flanked by an attorney. According to Arthur's report, he found that Baffert was dispensing Thyro-L, or thyroxine, a prescription thyroid hormone, to all horses in his care. And Baffert's veterinarians were prescribing it at his request without conducting laboratory tests to see whether the horses needed the drug, according to Arthur's later report.
Arthur indicated in his report that thyroxine was suspected to cause heart problems for horses during exercise, and at least four of the sudden deaths involved confirmed or suspected cardiac failure. "How carefully the dosage was followed was not determined," Arthur wrote. "Per Baffert, barn staff including grooms, were involved in administering the thyroxine in feed."
Baffert told investigators he used the drug for about five years to "build up" his horses, which Arthur noted was unusual because it was typically used to slim them down. The veterinarian chalked up Baffert's response to ignorance. "It's not uncommon to find trainers who don't understand medications and how different medications work," Arthur said.

Q: jQuery slideDown with easing How can use the slideDown() function with easing?
Maybe extend it somehow?
I'm looking for something like this:
jQuery.fn.slideDown = function(speed, easing, callback) {
  return ...
};

So i can use it slide this
$('.class').slideDown('400','easeInQuad');

or this
$('.class').slideDown('400','easeInQuad',function(){
   //callback
});

A: Easing In and Out:
            $("#SignIn").click(function () {

                $(".divSlideTop").slideDown({
                    duration: 1000,
                    easing: "easeInQuad"
                });
            });

            $("#close").click(function () {

                $(".divSlideTop").slideUp({
                    duration: 1000,
                    easing: "easeOutQuad"
                });
            });

A: Take a look at this page, which contains many easing functions: http://gsgd.co.uk/sandbox/jquery/easing/
Using that plugin you can do things like:
$(element).slideUp({
    duration: 1000,
    easing: method,
    complete: callback});

A: You can use the animate method with jQueryUI and the easing effects like this:
$(".demo").animate({height: "hide"}, 1500, "easeInQuad", function(){});

A: Have a look at my pen Demo you simple to use $(element).slideUp({duration:1000});

A: $('.class').slideDown(400,'easeInQuad');
