Turns out that CAVALERA CONSPIRACY and SEPULTURA co-founder Iggor Cavalera is also great at making music in a totally different universe. The Brazilian crew known as MIXHELL, also composed of Laima Leyton and Max Blum, finally make their smashing studio album debut with Spaces.
Generally speaking, one could describe Spaces as "dance music" but pigeonholing as merely that would be doing yourself a disservice. This album is about depth, diversity, and musicality. The band incorporate different vibes and genres (i.e. rock, alternative, electronica, Afro-Brazilian) and instrumentation. Speaking of instrumentation, it sounds damn good to hear the (live) drumming brilliance of Iggor and bass playing of Max throughout most, if not all, of Spaces as they prove that sometimes humans can still beat out computers.
While most of the tracks have vocals, MIXHELL finish out the last three tracks with three killer instrumentals. The drum beats of "White Ropes" are monstrous. "Daria" has sweet layers of bass, guitar, and synthesizers behind a steady beat. "Come with Me" may be the best song here with its deep emotion and understated momentum.

Home NEWS National Is Joe Biden Grooming Stacey Abrams To Be His Running Mate?
Is Joe Biden eyes a 2020 presidential run, he's apparently laying the groundwork for a ticket with Stacey Abrams, one of the rising stars in the Democratic Party's constellation.
Abrams, who fell short last year in her historic race for Georgia governor, met privately with the former vice president on Thursday in Washington—at Biden's request—the Associated Press reported.
It was unclear exactly what they discussed, but after two successful campaigns with President Barack Obama, Biden tapping Abrams as his running mate could serve as a source of excitement for and ignite interest among Black women, who have emerged as a powerful voting bloc.
In addition to helping to turn out the Black vote, Abrams, 45, could appeal to younger voters. At 76, Biden tends to draw support from older, working-class white voters—many of whom defected to Trump in 2016. Abrams, a progressive Democrat, could possibly also bring folks on the far left to the team.
All of that said, Abrams has multiple options in her political career.
Although lost the governorship in a contest that was plagued with voter suppression targeting African-Americans, her future has perhaps never looked brighter.
In January, Democratic Party leaders picked her to deliver their response to Trump's State of the Union address.
There was also the possibility of Abrams running for president in 2020, which she said Monday was "definitely on the table." If Abrams enters the race, she would all but be a favorite among Black women who are ready to leverage their political strength.
Democrats have called Black women the backbone of the party and have relied on them before to help save the party. Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perezhas sung the praises of Black women as an important voting bloc in the party.
"Let me be clear: We won in Alabama and Virginia because Black women led us to victory. Black women are the backbone of the Democratic Party, and we can't take that for granted. Period," Perez told The Washington Post in 2017 after big election wins in those two states.
Abrams also has not ruled out a Senate run in 2020. She told the AP that she was sticking to her previous commitment to announce her Senate plans in early April.
"The Senate is a different way to tackle the issues I see. It is a continuation of my legislative work, which I appreciated, but it's an indirect solution to some of the challenges I see," Abrams said.

How to Accept a Job Offer and Thank the Recruiter
How to Respond to a Cancelled Interview
Do I Thank Someone for an Interview Even Though I Didn't Get the Job?
Proper Way to Write a Cover Letter
What to Say When Turning Down an Interview
When you're in the middle of a serious job search, it's hard to imagine you might ever be in a position to turn down a job offer. But if you're lucky enough to have more than one offer, you'll need to know how to decline one of them. You might also be offered a job that turns out not to be a good fit for you, so you have to reject it. Once you've evaluated an offer and decided to reject it, call the hiring officer making the offer to inform her of your decision.
Call the hiring officer or recruiter who contacted you to make the offer. Thank him for his time and consideration. Tell him that, while you appreciate being offered the position, you have decided to decline the offer.
Answer her questions about why you're not taking the job. You're not required to provide a detailed explanation, but business etiquette dictates you offer at least a basic response. Tell her you received an offer for your "dream job" that you couldn't turn down or indicate that your personal or family circumstances have changed, if that is the case.
Remain polite and professional during the phone conversation. You don't want to burn any bridges with either the individual or his company, both to protect your own reputation and in case you come across him again in the future.
Follow up your phone conversation with a formal letter declining the position.This officially closes the loop and serves as official notice to the company that you have rejected the offer. Keep the tone of the letter respectful, appreciative and professional. Address it to the person who originally tendered the company's job offer. Keep a copy of the letter for your records.

Nordic News Weekly – June 7th
Biennials open in Moss and Örebro, profile updates for Den Frie and Kistefos Museum, and an artists' housing project in Oslo may become reality.
Av Mariann Enge	 07.06.19 Nyhet

On Saturday 8 June the 10th edition of the Momentum biennial opens in Moss, Norway. The exhibition, curated by Marti Manen with assistant curator Anne Klonz, will present the biennial's history from "an emotional point of view." Of twenty-nine participating artists, twelve have had work included in a prior edition of the biennial. Among them is Norwegian artist Knut Åsdam, who participated in the first edition in 1998. Åsdam has been asked to recreate his architectural installation Psychastenia #5. "It is a mix of sci-fi and sex club and cinema architecture, a place to see video art and to experience one's own body in relation to other bodies," Åsdam told Kunstkritikk. He stated that he found it interesting to experience the work again, but that it was also a bit complicated to recreate: "Firstly, the same videos that we screened in 1998 were not available for this exhibition, neither were the same lamps and monitors. It's easy to presume that it's just a building, but everything has its specificity." Åsdam added that he is still concerned with the same themes as he was back then: "I wanted to highlight social spaces and practices that formed part of the subconsciousness of the city, where the things that were aberrant, repressed, or hidden could appear." Read the full interview in Norwegian here.

Opening of the OpenArt Biennial 2019
Saturday 8 June will also see the inauguration of the 7th edition of the international contemporary art biennial OpenArt in the Swedish city of Örebro, this time with a special focus on the Nordic countries. A large-scale outdoor exhibition with no curator and no theme, OpenArt presents itself as "a biennial that revolts against traditional urban spaces, encourages creativity, and gives us the opportunity to experience the city from completely new perspectives." Among the sixty participating artists are Nordic representatives such as Anders Sunna, Astrid Myntekær, Aurora Passero, Egill Sæbjörnsson, Ilija Wyller, Jacob Dahlgren, Jeppe Hein, and Åsa Jungenlius. The exhibition even includes established international artists such as Guerrilla Girls, Jennifer Allora & Guillermo Calzadilla, Hito Steyerl, and Thomas Hirschhorn. The program for the opening weekend features an artist talk with Fikret Atay and Anri Sala, a textile workshop with Hanna Holmgren, performances by Jani Ruscica and Christian Falsnæs, and art films by Kirsten Astrup and Anri Sala. The exhibition is free, and will run for twelve weeks during the summer, until 1 September.

Artists' housing in Oslo may become reality
On 3 June Oslo's red-green city council presented its proposal for a new social housing policy aiming to create a "third housing sector" for people unable to buy their own house or apartment. The city council will initially launch five pilot projects. One of the projects under consideration is a plan for artists' housing and studio spaces at Hasle, developed by Young Artists' Society (UKS) in collaboration with the architectural firm Fragment. Recognising the problem of artists being displaced because of housing prices, Rasmus Reinvang (Green Party), secretary for the vice mayor for urban development, told Kunstkritikk that the city council is generally positive to the UKS project. Nevertheless, the proposed property at Hasle will temporarily serve as a fire station for the next five years. Ruben Steinum, until recently the chairman of UKS, told Kunstkritikk that the artists' housing project answers the challenges of the housing market in Oslo, as well as the precarious lack of production spaces. "The point is to create an infrastructure that can enable a future situation where socio-economic background does not determine who can become an artist," Steinum said.

From art museum to "destination"
Situated some four miles north of Oslo, the Kistefos Museum in Jevnaker comprises a museum of the timber industry, a sculpture park, and a kunsthalle. Kistefos now claims to be developing from a museum to a "destination", in their effort to draw a larger number of visitors to the admittedly remote location. The ambitions are nevertheless high: 18 Sempember, a new museum building, called The Twist, designed by the architects of Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), will be inaugurated. The new building, mainly financed with a donation of 200 million NOK (21,5 million EUR) from the museum's founder Christen Sveaas, will make room for a modern kunsthalle for comtemporary art. A brand new visual profile will be launched, and the sculpture park, which already consists of over forty sculptures, will be extended with three new sculptures. The first of these, Shine of Life, a site-specific work by Yayoi Kusama, was unveiled on 26 May in conjunction with the opening of the exhibition Tempo Tempo Tempo,curated by Rhea Dall. The show presents new works by eight younger Norwegian contemporary artists: Ragna Bley, Marthe Ramm Fortun, Ane Graff, Yngve Holen, Sandra Mujinga, Urd J. Pedersen, Eirik Sæther, and Fredrik Værslev.

Den Frie to focus on collaborations between visual and performing arts
Den Frie Centre of Contemporary Art in Copenhagen has announced that in the years to come, it will focus on developing experimental projects at the intersection between visual and performing arts. In addition to funding from other sources, the Bikuben Foundation has granted 2 million DKK (290,000 EUR) in support of this new strategic venture. The ambition is for Den Frie to function as a workshop for developing and experimenting with new artistic formats, and exploring various ways to engage audiences. In a press release, Den Frie states that it sees the combination of visual and performing arts as a natural development of its institutional tradition, as it has been an arena for meetings between different art forms ever since it was established by the artist, photographer, ceramicist, and architect J.F. Willumsen in 1898. The new programme was inaugurated on 30 May with the premiere of a version of Nam June Paik's fluxus work Symphony for 20 Rooms, re-enacted in collaboration with Scenatet, a young Copenhagen-based experimental ensemble.

Carter Family Crest
John Carter (ca. 1613–1670)
Contributed by Martin H. Quitt and the Dictionary of Virginia Biography
John Carter was a member of the governor's Council and the House of Burgesses. His family had familial and business connections with the Virginia Company of London, and Carter left England for Virginia during the 1630s. In 1642 he began acquiring the extensive property on the north bank of the Rappahannock River that became the family seat known as Corotoman. Carter married five times and founded one of the greatest of the colonial Virginia families. During the 1640s and 1650s Carter served in the House of Burgesses, which elected him to the governor's Council in 1658. He was again a burgess in 1660, when Charles II was restored to the throne, and Governor Sir William Berkeley reappointed Carter, a royalist, to the Council. He remained a councillor until his death ten years later. MORE...

By the King. A
Proclamation concerning
Tobacco.
Carter was born into an English family with commercial and kinship connections to members of the Virginia Company of London. He was probably the son of John Carter, a London vintner, and his second wife, Bridget Benion Carter. Historians once described Carter as an unhappy royalist who fled England after the execution of Charles I in 1649, but he had traveled to Virginia as early as 1635, when he gave his age as twenty-two on boarding the Safety on August 10. He may have been the John Carter, of London, age about twenty-three, who sailed to Virginia in 1637 but whose ship was captured by the Spanish. Literate in English and probably in Latin, Carter was better prepared to succeed than some of his contemporaries. Like many other young men with commercial connections, he may have made multiple crossings of the Atlantic while learning the tobacco trade. Carter's familial relationship to Edward Carter (d. 1682), who served with him in the House of Burgesses and on the governor's Council, was probably close but is unknown.
Map of the Northern Neck
Carter almost certainly decided to settle permanently in Virginia sometime before he was elected a burgess from Upper Norfolk County (later Nansemond County) for the assembly that met in January and June 1642. He also sat in the assembly that met on March 2, 1643, when for the first time the burgesses convened as a separate house. He represented Nansemond County again in the 1649 assembly. In 1642 Carter obtained the first of several grants of land on the north bank of the Rappahannock River in what became Lancaster County nine years later. There he established Corotoman, which became the family seat, and during the next quarter century amassed several thousand acres by patents and purchases. He received his largest single grant, for 4,000 acres, in 1665 for transporting to Virginia eighty people, including twenty-one of African origin or descent.
By 1652 Carter was a major in the county militia and soon thereafter became a colonel. Representing Lancaster County in the assemblies of 1654–1655 and 1658, Carter in the spring session of 1658 chaired committees that presented proposed revisions of the colony's laws to Governor Samuel Mathews (d. 1660) and that defended the burgesses' rights when the House got into a dispute with the governor and Council. On March 13, 1658, the burgesses elected Carter to the governor's Council, a selection the House confirmed on April 3 of that year, but on March 15, 1659, the assembly postponed a decision whether to reelect him. Carter served in the House of Burgesses again in the spring of 1659 and was present in Jamestown when news arrived of the death of Oliver Cromwell and the succession of his son, Richard Cromwell, as lord protector. A royalist, Carter objected so sternly that on April 8, 1659, the governor issued a warrant for his arrest. How long Carter remained in custody and the result of the arrest are not known. He returned to Jamestown again as a burgess for the March 1660 assembly, which elected Sir William Berkeley governor pending receipt of a commission from the restored king Charles II.
Sir William Berkeley
After Berkeley's reelection, Carter won reappointment to the Council. Records of the governor's Council are scarce, a consequence of the destruction of most of the official documents, and the date of his appointment is not known. Carter joined other Council members and Berkeley in March 1663 in complaints after the king granted the Northern Neck to several court favorites, and that same spring he took part in negotiating an agreement that the Virginia and Maryland Councils concluded to reduce tobacco production in hopes of raising the crop's price. Carter was busy with his own affairs and could not attend all the recorded Council meetings in Jamestown, but he was present in June 1667 when the governor and Council wrote the king concerning the colony's defense during the Second Anglo-Dutch War (1665–1667) and remained a member until his death.
Carter exemplified the success that young men of urban backgrounds could attain in the middle third of the seventeenth century by entering the tobacco trade and becoming Virginia landowners and planters. The inventory of his estate, taken in July 1670, listed more than thirty indentured servants, with the amount of time left in each of their terms of service, and more than forty persons of African origin or descent, none of whom had a stated limit on future service. The distinction suggests that Carter, like other leading planters of his time, was shifting to a greater reliance on black laborers held in lifetime service.
Carter's success in business and in acquiring land, together with his political prominence, made him an increasingly attractive marriage partner in a society in which women were still in short supply. He founded one of the greatest of the colonial Virginia families. Carter married Jane Glyn, perhaps before settling in Virginia. The date and place of their marriage and the time of her death are not known. They had a daughter, who married a member of the Maryland governor's Council, and two sons. One of them died young, and the other, John Carter (d. 1690), served in the assembly during the summer of 1676. Carter married Eleanor Eltonhead Brocas, the recent widow of the Council member William Brocas, in 1655. They are not known to have had any children before her death not long thereafter. On a trip to England in 1656 Carter married Anne Carter, who soon died, also without having any recorded children. By early in the 1660s Carter had married Sarah Ludlow. They had one daughter, who died in infancy, and one son, Robert Carter (ca. 1664–1732), before her death. On October 24, 1668, Carter executed a marriage agreement and then or very soon afterward married Elizabeth Sherley. Their son died probably early in the 1690s.
See Panoramas
Virtual Tour of Christ
Carter died, probably at Corotoman, on January 10, 1670, and was buried at the first Christ Church in Lancaster County, a parish and a church he had helped build. His fifth wife, one daughter, and three sons survived him, among them Robert Carter, who eclipsed him and who, because of his vast accumulation of wealth, other Virginians called King Carter.

A Year Like No Other
Post On Sunday December 31, 2020 4 min read
By Talent Katsande
"This is double tragedy." Of late, the arts and entertainment industry has experienced an exodus of our neighboring countries visiting us, seeking an understanding of what happened to their favourite, talented, charismatic and energetic shining stars.
Even 'us,' Zimbabweans, do not have answers to that for we were left with permanent marks that's will never fade away.
It was a year like no other, a year that made us believe that death spares no one, the rich and the poor. Surely we were never meant to stay forever on this earth, but God will come as a thief to take each and every one of us on a different day and time.
The year 2020 was not a good year in the arts and entertainment industry as it witnessed the deaths of so many celebrities and also the production and projects were affected by the global pandemic Covid-19.
If we could turn back the hands of time, nobody could ever wish to go back to 2020 because everybody has a different story to tell, our dear celebrities are gone but we will never forget them.
As rich as he was, God chose to take him at the age of 36 without considering the fact he was a man who was so much loved by his fans, it was therefore least expected that Ginimbi, 'Genius Kadungure' would not be amongst us by this time, for his death was so sudden.
Being a flamboyant socialite and businessman, he left his vast resources, and was buried alone after having a head-on collision with a Honda Fit along Borrowdale Road, in Harare on the 8th of November 2020.
But because he is God, nobody has the authority to question him when he makes his judgments according to his own will, however he gave us the holy spirit to comfort us.
Our beloved comedian Lazarus Boora "Gringo" is now history, he entertained our generation with all sorts of comedies but died on November 9 at the age of 47 after suffering from stomach cancer and was buried at his rural home in Rukweza, Rusape.
Imagine being a celeb and die as young as 26, was Mitchell Amuli "Moana" who left her fans with nothing to say but in shock waves and lessons drawn before and after burial as families fought for the ownership of her dead body.
All her beauty was burnt beyond recognition on the 8th of November after being trapped in Ginimbi's car, coming from celebrating her birthday.
It feels like a dream that Prince Musarurwa an Afro-Jazz musician of the popular hit song "Runonzi Rudo" featuring Pah Chihera is no more, he died of lung cancer at the age of 32 at Chinhoyi Hospital on February 15 2020.
Think of Scara, the most popular and talented drummer died on September 4 at the age of 26, after succumbing to heart disease for long time.
Also, Lavona Maria Staal, a Bulawayo dancer, singer and actress Lavona Maria Staal also died at 32 on September 1.
She was one of the nominees at last year's Roil Bulawayo Arts Awards in the best female dancer category and started dancing at an early age with the likes IYASA and Yvette Ndaba before she founded her own LTC Legacy brand.
There is no one like Calvin Nhliziyo, a Bulawayo based rap king contender who was famously knows as CalVin-the rapper, died on October 25 after involved in a hit and run accident near his home in Luveve 5, Bulawayo.
For sure, death is unavoidable because no matter how much we may grieve, all these celebrities we lost as Zimbabweans will never be replaced.
I remember Iyasa founding and longest-serving member, Sibonisiwe "Bonnie" Sithole died in Bulawayo on October 14 at the age of 37 from chest pains.
Sithole served Iyasa from its inception in 2000 when she joined the likes of Sandra Ndebele, Nomathamsanqa "Nkwali" Mkhwananzi, Roben Mlauzi and Futurelove Sibanda.
Who will forget "The fading Son"?, a novel that was published in 2009 by David Mungoshi, the National Arts Merit Award (NAMA) 2010 winning novel writer, poet and academic, which tackled issues of breast cancer and its effect on the patient, their spouse, family and friends
He died at 71 on the 29 of August and was buried in Manyene Village, Chivhu.The book was put on a list of literature set books for schools.
Our promising actor, Samantha Kapora featured in Telecel and Zimgold adverts as well as local movies such as My First Boyfriend and Tsitsi died early February following a short illness, 'stomach ailment' and was buried at Warren Hills Cemetery in Harare.
Today being the last day of 2020, the arts and entertainment industry pays tribute to those stars who made the world a place and their works will forever be honoured.
Although they did not make it for 2021, we forget not the media industry which lost a number of practitioners in 2020 from Covid 19 and road traffic accidents, may their dear souls rest in eternal peace.

Youth call out Taliban at 'peace and ceasefire' cricket tournament
Youth from seven southern provinces urged the Taliban at cricket tournament to accept peace and declare a nationwide ceasefire.

ZABUL -- Cricket teams from seven southern provinces held a tournament September 1-10 in Zabul Province, urging the Taliban to choose the path of peace and end the war.
Teams from Kandahar, Helmand, Nimroz, Herat, Ghazni, Paktika and Zabul provinces played against each other in the "Peace and Ceasefire" cricket tournament in Qalat, the capital of Zabul Province.
In the final match, the team from Helmand won the championship by defeating Paktika.

"I am very happy the cricket tournament under the name of 'peace and ceasefire' was held in Zabul," said Lal Jan Afghan, a resident of Shamalzo District, Zabul Province, who attended the final match.
"May God bring permanent peace in Afghanistan," he said. "If peace comes, we can go to any part of Zabul and live a happy life."
"I am calling on the Taliban to make peace and declare a ceasefire," Afghan said. "All the victims of the fighting in Afghanistan are innocent Afghans, so we all are tired of this situation and we are asking for peace and a ceasefire."
The cricket tournament "shows that we are thirsty for a ceasefire and peace", said Abdul Qayum Ajez, a civil society activist in Zabul.
"We are asking the Taliban to join the peace process and take advantage of this opportunity," he said. "We have not seen anything other than misfortunes during the past 18 years of war."
"Cricket is a game of peace, brotherhood and unity," said Rohullah Hakimi, a 35-year-old cricket fan from Zabul who watched the tournament.
"This tournament has an important role in uniting the youth and building ties among the provinces," he said. "We hope that the insurgents will stop fighting and join the peace process because fighting has oppressed many Afghans."
"With these matches we mean to raise the voice of peace from one province to other provinces," said Abdur Rahim Rahimi, a player on the Nimroz cricket team.
"Through cricket games, we can make a good campaign against fighting and drugs," he added.
Uruzgan youth call for ceasefire
Other Afghan youth are continuing the calls for peace.
Dozens of youth gathered September 12 in Tirin Kot, capital of Uruzgan Province, to call on the Taliban to declare a ceasefire.
"There are youth who have lost their eyes in land mine explosions, they have lost legs and their wish is to see peace," said Ahmad Jawed Khpalwak, 36, a participant from Uruzgan.
"If a ceasefire is not declared, this misfortune and hateful treatment will continue, which will be to the detriment of Afghans," he said.
"Our fundamental demand of the politicians, government and Taliban is to make a permanent ceasefire and meet each other the same as they did during the last year's Eid ceasefire so that the happiness can return once again," Khpalwak said.
The Afghan government announced a week-long ceasefire with the Taliban starting June 12, 2018, in a bid to bring the group to the negotiating table. The Taliban agreed that year to observe the ceasefire for Eid ul Fitr from June 15-17.
This year, a much-anticipated Eid ul Adha greeting from Taliban leader Mullah Haibatullah Akhundzada on August 8 made no mention of the truce that many Afghans long for.
This year's Eid ul Fitr also passed with Haibatullah's rejection of a ceasefire.
"Now we and you are forced to make peace at any cost, and we want permanent and stable peace," said Daud Durrani, a participant of the Tirin Kot rally. "We do not need a five-day-long peace where the next day Afghanistan gets into trouble again and no Afghan finds shelter or spends a peaceful night."
"In the fighting, youths are the ones who get hurt the most," said Asadullah Noori, another participant. "The only reason behind today's gathering is that on both sides, youth are in the fighting forces. Peace is important because we are being killed; therefore, we want a permanent ceasefire and peace."

HVAC systems are typically a building's largest energy user. HVAC first-costs account for just 43% of the life-cycle expense. Maintenance and repair add another 7%, leaving a full 50% of life cycle costs to energy usage.
Wiegmann engineers understand how to design an HVAC system that saves money now, and saves more over the life of your building.
Whether we design your HVAC system or value engineer an existing design, our focus is on simplicity and proven reliability.
Right-sizing systems not only saves money up front but also generates long- term energy savings and improved environmental conditions. We streamline ductwork and piping systems and select equipment that is sized for the actual load. We build safety factors into our designs where it counts and does not impact system performance. This often results in the need for less equipment, which means reduced electrical and structural work and a lower overall construction budget.
We are also experts in Building Automation Systems, which provide a detailed view of how HVAC systems really operate and insight into how to properly apply systems on future projects.
Saving energy is our promise, and we deliver. In addition to saving upfront costs, our energy saving techniques generate annual savings that many times lead to a simple pay back of the initial project costs in three to five years. These savings continue for the life of the building.
Energy rebates can offset a major portion of equipment upgrade costs. We take the lead to identify available rebates and guide our clients through the rebate process.

Rebels collapsing in last stronghold east of Damascus as the Syrian Army rapidly advances
by Leith Aboufadel
in Syria
BEIRUT, LEBANON (5:05 P.M.) – Minutes ago, the Syrian Arab Army's 105th Brigade of the Republican Guard broke-through Jaysh Al-Islam's (Army of Islam) primary defenses at Hazrama and entered this town for the first time in four years.
Backed by the Palestine Liberation Army (PLA), the Syrian Arab Army managed to seize most of Hazrama already, killing and wounding several Jaysh Al-Islam militants while also capturing a large weapons depot inside this East Ghouta town.
A Syrian Army officer told Al-Masdar News during the advance that the 105th Brigade cutoff Jaysh Al-Islam's main supply line to the town, leaving them without the possibility of reinforcing Hazrama from the nearby village of Nashabiyah.
In addition to this information, the Syrian Army officer also informed Al-Masdar News that the 105th Brigade has seized more than 70 percent of Hazrama today.
Elsewhere, in a lightening style attack, Syrian Army Special Forces stormed the key hilltop town of Tal Farzat, capturing half of this area and jfortifying their positions.
If the Syrian Arab Army captures Tal Farzat, then they will essentially have fire control over the nearby towns of Hawsh Salhiyah and Nashabiyah.

FBI Demonstration Educates Local Law Enforcement On IED Chemicals
Filed Under:Anti-Terror Training, FBI, IEDs, Joint Terrorism Task Force, Meg Baker
EDISON, N.J. (CBSNewYork) — In a training exercise to stop terrorism, the FBI on Tuesday was educating local authorities on the power of improvised explosive devices made with household products.
As CBS2's Meg Baker reported, the demonstration in Edison, New Jersey included examples of IEDs that have actually been used by terrorists around the world.
The FBI conducted the demonstrations as they emphasized that we are all partners in a fight against terrorism.
"Without the public's help and input, it's really difficult to identify any kind of threat without the assistance," said Kevin M. Conklin, Supervisor Special Agent of the Joint Terrorism Task Force in Newark.
Special agents with the Joint Terrorism Task Force said the recent and tragic attacks in Turkey and Belgium show the real threat we face from improvised explosives, made with household products.
"Bleach, ammonia, nail polish remover, brake fluid – you know, when they're combined in right amounts, they can inflict serious damage," said Timothy Gallagher, JTTF Special Agent in Charge for Newark.
The training event included members of state and local law enforcement – first responders and private-sector partners – who may deal with sensitive chemicals that could be used to make a homemade bomb.
"We provide them an understanding and overview of what types of chemicals and devices can be put together, and then we complete the training by showing them exactly what the destructive nature of those devices are," Conklin explained.
The effort helps to combat terrorism from all angles.
"Anyone seeking to do us harm – whether it be, you know, an individual from abroad or someone who grew up right here in New Jersey" can more easily be detected, Gallagher said.
Special Agent Christopher White did the lethal mixing.
"One of the explosions we made, we refer to as a cold-pack explosive," White said. "Basically, we're using ammonium nitrate, mixing that with the field components."
White said two of the most dangerous substances are nail polish remover and peroxide. A similar chemical was used by the Brussels bombers.
The agents said if you see something – even with the simplest of ingredients being mixed or bought – say something.

Atlantic Canada > Federal Election
Province extends deadline for DSME Trenton
Fram Dinshaw | Posted: April 5, 2018, 6:08 p.m. | Updated: April 5, 2018, 6:08 p.m. | 2 Min Read
The province is still mulling what to do with the shuttered DSME wind tower plant in Trenton as it stretched its deadline to decide into May.
Minister of Business Geoff MacLellan said the government has three options: sell off the whole site, liquidate all assets, or turn the site over to Nova Scotia Lands who can then manage individual on-site facilities as needed.
"The province is left with the facility [an] enormous footprint," MacLellan told The News.
Maintaining the DSME Trenton site presently costs the province $150,000 per month.
However, this is not the end of the road for DSME Trenton. The former Sydney tar ponds became a park and green space enjoyed by many, while buildings at the former Bowater mill in Liverpool were leased out to private firms.
"This would be a private sector management opportunity," said MacLellan.
That said, the hundreds of local jobs the plant once promised for Pictou County are now gone.
MacLellan said that a supply glut of wind turbine parts was one reason why the plant ultimately failed. Markets in need of wind plants already had other supply sources lined up.
The minister said that obtaining turbine parts and other energy grid infrastructure, whether from within Canada or abroad, was easy and the DSME closure did not affect this fact.
"This was about the remaining operating funds that were retrieved from the company when the agreement was nullified," said MacLellan.
The plant's story began in 2010 when DSME made a deal with the province to open the wind tower manufacturing plant.
The plant opened the following year and the first tower section was built. More towers and other components were built until 2015.
In 2016 the province was informed that the plant would be closing permanently. As a result, the province filed an application with the Nova Scotia Supreme court for receivership proceedings.

What to expect on Sunday mornings:
Please dress as you feel most comfortable. There is no dress code for you to follow. Many people dress casually, and you will be warmly welcomed as you are.
SNACKS AND COFFEE
Most weeks, we have small breakfast snacks and coffee available before the service. Come a few minutes early to meet someone new and enjoy some homemade bagels!
WORSHIP STYLE
Churches of Christ traditionally sing a cappella, meaning our church typically sings without instruments on Sunday mornings. (The Table is our instrumental worship service on Saturday nights.) We sing a mix of traditional hymns and more contemporary praise songs. The a cappella tradition is beautiful: When we lift our voices together on Sunday morning, we become God's musical instruments through which God makes amazing music. We also know the a cappella tradition can be unfamiliar for a lot of people, and that's okay! We encourage you to simply take it in or to participate as you feel comfortable. Every voice is beloved to God — even those that are not perfectly in tune!
Communion (also known as Eucharist or the Lord's Supper) is a sacrament of eating bread and drinking fruit of the vine as a reminder of Jesus' life, ministry, death, and resurrection. Communion is central to who we are, and we observe it every week with crackers and grape juice. We practice an open communion, which means anyone can participate in communion as they feel comfortable and called. We believe communion is a symbolic, tangible representation of Jesus' faithfulness to us and our commitment to Jesus.
Different members of our community lead different parts of our worship service, including reading Scripture, praying, and leading our communion meditation. This means we get to hear the voices and perspectives of many different people in our congregation.


I met Jane Irish at Locks Gallery to discuss her work a few days before the closing of her show, Faience and Firenze. This is a particularly exciting time for her because she is retiring from her position at Penn, where I first met her as a student, to focus full-time on her art.
I am drawn to the way Irish works, painting en plein air and creating her own source material to remake on ceramics and large canvases. This allows her to re-see, and therefore rework older material to make it new again––to make the past relevant in a new way to the present and to develop new connections between people and places. The work in Faience and Firenze consisted of en plein air paintings from Florence, ceramic bowls, and several larger canvases painted with the natural light in her studio.
Gordon Stillman: Before we talk about some of your recent work, I was wondering how Philadelphia has been important to your work? Why didn't you stay in New York City after getting your MFA?
Jane Irish: I really like that you asked that! I know I am of this place, and my artwork reflects this sense of place even though it is kind of hard to talk about and kind of minimal. Something about using what is at hand, finding a history in the town you live in or are from, and then letting that history lead you around the world so that it is more informed.
Indigenous for me is attending the Barnes as a student at 16 and living through the historical changes in my city. The Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) was very active in Philadelphia, with performative actions at the Betsy Ross house for example, and their first national protest, Operation Raw, has been very influential for me [Operation Raw was a protest "march" from Morristown, NJ, to Valley Forge meant to demonstrate the horrors of the Vietnam War through guerilla theater, reenactments, readings, and community engagement. Jane Irish organized a previous show about Operation Raw in the Crane Arts building in 2005]. The Imaginative Representations of the Vietnam War Collection at LaSalle University is a constant resource, and the only one like it in the world that traces the artistic output of the Vietnam War.
GS: I found myself immediately drawn to the Resistance Ceiling, which seems to bring together a lot of your recent work, namely your work from Italy, France, and Vietnam. I was wondering if you could briefly mention the different parts of the composition and your inspiration for this piece?
JI: I was reminded [by a friend upon seeing the ceilings from Florence] that the ceiling can be this huge mythological space, and I wanted to create a ceiling about the spiritual ideals of the anti-war, peacemaking, and resistance movements.
So I set up my studio like a stage set, with panels and paintings, and paint with the natural light in my studio. This painting combines the ceilings I painted in Florence with a French interior from the Musée Jacquemart-André in Paris, gardens outside of Paris, and resistance figures––veteran protesters, monks, and other figures.
GS: I really love the figures in the ceiling, and I recognize a few of them from previous paintings you have completed. I am drawn to this notion of combining paintings and repainting them because I see it as creating new relationships not only within your work, but between the people and places in it.
JI: It's really fun to make a painting off a painting because you can imitate and also change your own hand. Another important aspect to my work is that my work comes from my experience and personal connections. I paint from the motifs for real. I meet the poets for real, the Vietnamese artists, the scholars, the French writers and colonialists. I am served by the butler of an Italian Baroness and I am mentored by anti-war veterans. I somehow tap the tales told to me into my brushstrokes. Sometimes you just pick things up that you experience firsthand. I am a receptor, and I have collected these ideas on power and resistance, and when I see something that inspires it, it gets into my work.
GS: The VVAW peace movements, France, and Vietnam are all things you continue to reference in your paintings, but Italy is relatively new. What are some of the ideas that you continue to work with?
JI: In Italy –– I don't really look at Italian artists, besides Titian –– I was surrounded by the history of composition, the birthplace of it, and so this definitely affected my work. I've been working with the same storyline, but it has been ten years (just as long as the VVAW peace movement lasted). All artists have this one thing that they are trying to make more relevant to our present history–mine is to show the continued relevance of resistance and peace movements from the Vietnam War era.
GS: So the ceramic bowls bring us back to this era and to Vietnam. The press release for the show states that these bowls were a new shape for you. Where did that inspiration come from?
JI: I originally saw this shape bowl in Bat Trang, Hanoi. It is a ceremonial bowl style and these bowls are full-scale models of ones I propose to make. Vu Kim Thu, an artist from Hanoi, is helping me set up a residency in Bat Trang. There are many small ceramic companies in this handicraft village that I visited on my second trip to Vietnam. Young Vietnamese artists are beginning to collaborate with the craftsman, and I wanted to show the potential of my project, so I worked on the prototype bowls in this show with Philadelphia ceramicist Ryan Greenheck. The shape also reminds me that many anti-war protests happened outside in natural amphitheaters, like the bowl at Valley Forge where Operation Raw finished. This gave them natural areas to perform their acts of protest for an audience.
I did these bowls in pairs, with matching styling and motifs inspired by Vietnamese faience pottery and painted scenes from VVAW protests on the inside of one bowl, while I painted scenes from Hoa Lu Ancient Capital in the matching bowl [for example, a ceremonial arch].
GS: How did you decide on the motifs for the matching bowls?
JI: I start my ceramics with a pattern book, to take something I've done in painting and put it on a bowl and create the whole dialogue between the arts myself. The general trajectory that moves me to make a body of work in ceramics is that I am not just critiquing the patriarchy but making pieces that try to correct the paternalism I see in decorative arts. I am interested in focusing on peace, on the spirit of the VVAW, and questioning the dominant narrative. My source of inspiration in the decorative arts gives me license to repeat myself, and also lets me question my own work.
GS: So now I want to move forward, to think about the future, since you just retired from your job at Penn. Florence was a new location for your work, and it was suggested by Carl Brandon Strehlke, a friend, curator, and member of your community. Is there anyone else in your community you would like to reconnect with or work with in some new way? Any big projects coming up?
JI: Well, I've spoken with an arts social practice program in Philadelphia developing a program that may take place this coming Labor Day (Monday, September 7, 2015) which is the 45th anniversary of Operation Raw.
I also hope to visit New York more and see what happens, and return to Bretagne [France] and paint La Chipaudiere and Le Puit Savage. Make bowls at Bat Trang, Hanoi, and show at Art Vietnam Gallery. Think of a project for New Space Arts Foundation in Hue, Vietnam, where I have been offered a stay with the Le Brothers at their residency.


We're giving you a sneak peak of what's to come later this year.
We have not long returned from the PGA Show in Orlando where we viewed the Fall 2014 collections and here exclusively on our Blog, we're giving you a sneak peak of what's to come later this year.
For Fall, you should expect lots of bright colours for Menswear with sporty and travel inspired themes.
Fairway and Greene showcased their Centre Courts collection, which revolves around a Tennis theme, so expect Bright Blues and Tennis Ball Yellowy Greens.
Positano is a collection based on the warm colours of the Amalfi Coast, Italy. Drawing inspiration from clear seas, beautifully painted buildings and seasonal fruits of the Italian cuisine, you'll see an array of Blood Orange and Blue Sea colourings.
Bobby Jones' Menswear is equally as colourful but opt for a more muted and pastel based collection.
The Front Side collection (above) is made of the finest cotton materials and will feature three key colours – Wisteria, Apricot and Meadow.
Peter Millar is one of our key sellers in our Golf Shops here at St Andrews Links, and had a vast array of cotton and technical pieces in bold colours. The colours that stood out most to us were Black and Pimlico Blue so we built a collection around these colours. We think that these colours will be a welcome addition to the Old Course Shop during the Fall season and will sit perfectly amongst the collections already in-store. The Ladies collection from Peter Millar, something that we are selling for SS14 this year was available in colour stories revolving around Aqua or Orchid – two very different colour stories as you can see from the image below. It has yet to be decided whether we will have either of these stories available for Fall.
We also visited the Tom Morris stand during the PGA Show. Tom Morris, which has its flagship store here in St Andrews, was exhibiting the Autumn-Winter collection for 2014. The collection is based on the famous road trip Old Tom made across Scotland, from East to West, to Prestwick. The collection draws on a tonal, autumnal palette of Russets, Vintage Blues and neutrals. We hope our customers visiting the Tom Morris store or website this Fall will love the collection as much as we do!
For our Men's rain and wind wear, expect all of your favourite Rainwear pieces with a Fall update. The Power Torque Jacket and the Quarter Wedge (amongst others) will be available within a Red and Graphite Grey colour story.
For the Ladies, the collections were fruity and sweet; monochrome with a splash of colour; deep; dark and nautical.
The ever popular nautical themed look came from Fairway and Greene. The Sail Away collection has an Americana colour palette of Yacht Blue and bright pomegranate Pink. The collection features a Chevron print and has a modern sporty edge.
For EP Pro, both collections that are available for Fall are bold statements – one a sweetie based Red collection and the other a monochrome Domino collection with a pop of Yellow (Margarita).
Purple was a popular colour at the PGA show, but the best Purple colour story by far was the Ladies' Bobby Jones collection of Cassis and Black. A mostly technical collection with a few lifestyle pieces thrown in, the Cote D'Azur collection revolves around Purple and Black with hints of Grey.
The Fall collections will hit stores during the month of July and we look forward to welcoming our visitors with these exciting collections later on in the year.


Hillsboro-Deering Principal Jim O'Rourke was our guest speaker to tell us about the high school and their programs. As a result of his attending, the club will be having a regular breakfast meeting at the Hillsboro-Deering High School and hosted by the DECA members on November 19th. Any guests wishing to join us should call Joyce Bosse at 464-3053.

USE OF TECHNOLOGIES OF PLASTIC AND RECONSTRUCTIVE MICROSURGERY IN TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH PATHOLOGY OF KNEE
Rodomanova L.A., Kochish A.Y., Kutyanov D.I., Ryabov V.A.
Analysis of the results of surgical treatment of 63 patients with knee-joint pathology who were treated in Vreden's Scientific-research Institute of traumatology and orthopaedics (Saint-Petersburg, Russia) within the period from 2000 to 2011. All the patients had pedicled flap transfer or free tissue transfer. 53 patients (84,1%) had additionally various orthopedic operations on the knee joint: 42 patients had primary or revision total knee arthroplasty, 6 patients had resections of bony tumors and total knee arthroplasty, 4 - knee arthrodesis, 1 - open reduction and internal fixation of patella. The results of treatment were estimated according to WOMAC knee score. 4 patients had total necrosis of flap what demanded repeated reconstructive microsurgical operation. 6 patients had knee arthroplasty surgical site infection, 1 patient had recidive of osteoblastic sarcoma and he was made leg amputation. 65,7% of patients had good results according to WOMAC knee score, 28,6% patients had satisfactory results. Microsurgical operations in patients with pathology of knee-joint mainly aim to correct various pathological changes of tissues located in this particular area. In cases of scarry deformations and defects of tissues located in the area of knee-joint microsurgical technologies increase the opportunities for fulfilling total knee arthroplasty and improve its results as well as results of other orthopedical operations. At the same time microsurgical technologies may be used as preparative operations, single-step maneuvers and operations fulfilled in case of development of local infectious complications.
THE LONG-TERM RESULTS OF SURGICAL TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH ISTHMIC SPONDYLOLISTHESIS USING ANTERIOR LUMBAR INTERBODY FUSION
Shapovalov V.M., Nadulich K.A., Teremshonok A.V., Nagorny E.B., Yastrebkov N.M.
The authors analyzed the long-term results of surgical treatment 47 patients with true spondylolisthesis. The follow up period ranged from 14 to 25 years. All patients underwent an isolated anterior interbody riving allograft fusion. The scales of VAS and ODI were used for subjective assessment of treatment outcomes; objective assessment was based on clinical and radiographic, CT and MRI outcomes. There were 42.6% (20 cases) patients with good, 31.9% (15 cases) with satisfactory and 25.5% (12 cases) unsatisfactory results in the long-term follow-up. The main reasons of poor outcome were: the continued high degree of displacement of the vertebral body (17.6%), instability (38.3%) and the disbalance of the lumbosacral spine (63.8%), persistent compression of neural structures (42.6%). Most patients had the combination of these factors that were existed against backdrop of progressive degenerative changes of the spine.
EXPERIENCE WITH MODULAR BLOCKS FOR REPLACEMENT OF MEDIAL CONDYLE BONE DEFECTS OF THE TIBIA IN PRIMARY KNEE ARTHROPLASTY
Kazemirsky A.V., Kazemirsky A.V., Preobrazhensky P.M.
Experience of using modular metal blocks for knee replacement for the replacement of defects of the tibial condyles in the Russian NIITO named after R.R. Vreden is more than 9 years. Authors analyzed the results of the using of blocks that replace defect of the medial condyles tibia bone, from 2003 to 2009 years. There were three group of patients: two group - comparison group and one - control group (the first group consist of 100 patient without defect of the condyle tibia. This patients a standard knee replacement was performed; the second group consist of 28 patient with the defects of the medial condyles tibia bone. This patient was used knee replacement with the bone autoplasty defects of the medial condyles of tibia bone; the third group (control) consists of 56 patients with the defects of the medial condyles of tibia bone. This patients a knee replacement with the using of blocks that replace defect of the medial condyles tibia bone was performed. Periods of studies were from 2 years till 7 years. Scale KSS was applied for the evaluation of the results. Among the patients were women (114-66.3%), nearly one third (58-33.7%) - men, mean age - 68.4 years. Similar demographics were occurred in all groups, however, a comparative evaluation on the scale of the study and control groups in the preoperative period revealed significant differences. In the postoperative period results were similar in all groups. The applying of modular units for replacement of defects of the medial condyle of the tibia bone during knee replacement is a simple and effective method, shown with significant bone defects - more than V the area of the condyle, a depth of 10 mm, which is an alternative to bone grafting and allowing early activation of patients.

Reznik L.B., Dzuba G.G., Novikov A.A.
In the experiment on 5 dogs weighing from 6 to 10 kg the results of applying ultrasonic technology of polymer removal and treatment of bone mantle in revision total hip and knee arthroplasty were examined. As a source of high-amplitude low-frequency ultrasound an ultrasonic surgical apparatus «Tier», operating at 42 kHz, and provides the intensity of exposure at the end of the waveguide to 1200 W / cm2 was applied. The physical parameters of the influence of ultrasound on the bone were studied. The analysis of the rate of removal of the old plastic mantle was performed. The results of experimental and clinical studies proved that the use of ultrasound frequency of 42.5 kHz facilitates the removal of old bone cement in revision arthroplasty of large joints, reduces the duration and severity of the operation.
REGIONAL HEMODYNAMICS IN DIFFERENT TYPES OF SURGICAL TREATMENT OF DIAPHYSEAL FRACTURES OF THE SHIN BONE
Pisarev V.V., L'Vov S.E., Vasin I.V., Tikhomolova E.V.
82 patients were examined with the tibia fractures. Osteosynthesis with the help of plates was executed by 40 patients, osteosynthesis with the help of hinges with blocking was executed by 42 patients. The methods of duplex scanning of vessels and reovazografic inspection were used for studying of the blood circulation in tibia. Researches were conducted on the 5th and the 10th days in 1, 2, 3 and 4 months after the operation. It was established that the surgical treatment of the tibia fractures without any difference in using various methods of the broken fragments fixation in the early postoperative period (first 10 days) leads to a decrease in the level of arterial blood flow as a result of the vessels hypotonia. The absence of postoperative immobilization and early loading lead to the more rapid restoration of the initial indices of hemodynamics. Blood flow changes are least expressed and more rapidly restored during the closed reposition osteosynthesis with the help of hinges. The reaction of the vascular system of periosteum in the process of the regeneration of the tibia tissues does not depend on the method of the surgical treatment.
THE USE OF PROLONGED BLOCK OF PLEXUS AXILLARIS IN CHILDREN WITH EXTENSION CONTRACTURES OF THE ELBOWS DUE TO ARTHROGRYPOSIS
Zabolotskiy D.V., Baindurashvili A.G., Agranovich O.E., Savenkov A.N., Trofimova S.I.
Elbow deformities is one of the most widespread pathologies in patients with arthrogryposis. In the majority of the cases children have extension contractures. Most of the children have limitation of active and passive movements in elbow. The aim of this research was to establish the efficiency of prolonged block of plexus axillaris in children with extension contractures of the elbows due to arthrogryposis. From 2010 to 2011 we performed prolonged block of plexus axillaris in 23 children with arthrogryposis after mobilization of elbow. During catheterization of perineural space we use ultrasound navigation and neurostimulation. We carry out elbow capsulotomy and V-Y triceps lengthening with (or without) transposition muscles. Prolonged block of plexus axillaris after these operation helps to improve passive movements in the elbow (the average passive flexion was 80-50°, passive extension was 170-160°). The mean time of rehabilitation was 3 weeks. Combination of this method with physiotherapy helps to restore range of motion in elbow in patients with arthrogryposis.
PREDICTION OF THE DURATION OF DISTRACTION REGENERATED BONE MATURATION
Tushina N.V., Stogov M.V., Kononovich N.A., Yemanov A.A.
Aim of the study the characteristics of changes of serum biochemical parameters in dogs with delayed maturation of the distraction regenerate after surgical lengthening the leg bones by Ilizarov. The comparative analysis of biochemical changes in blood serum of animals with delayed regenerated bone osteogenesis after surgical leg bone lengthening according to Ilizarov has been made in the work. The development of persistent and marked hypocalcemia, significant accumulation of blood serum nonoxidized degradation products during limb bone surgical lengthening according to Ilizarov have been revealed to be adverse signs evidencing of the high probability of the disorder of further formation of the regenerated bone and its subsequent maturation at the stage of fixation.
CURRENT OPPORTUNITIES OF SONOGRAPHIC DIAGNOSTICS TIBIAL OSTEOCHONDROMAS
Tarasov A.N., Kroshkina V.A., Greenberg E.B.
Osteochondroma is the most common tumor of the skeleton. Its frequency is more than 40% of benign and at least 20% of all human bone tumors. The objective of this study was to improve methods of diagnostics of shin bone osteochondromas with using of modern imaging techniques. There were treated 81 patients with primary tibia osteochondroma and one with a secondary chondrosarcoma during the period from 2000 to 2011 in the Clinic of Traumatology and Orthopedics of the Astrakhan Medical Academy Diagnostics was based on the data of anamnesis, physical examination, standard X-rays and computed tomography. We applied ultrasound studies of shin bones in 11 patients. The ultrasonography has allowed revealing two main forms of osteochondromas: "globular-shaped" and "hill-shaped". The tumor goes into the third "cauliflower-shaped" form in the case of malignant transformation. The distribution of the cartilage on the osteochondroma surface is irregular and depends on the tumor shape. The indirectly malignant signs are the loss of sharpness and smoothness of the contour, hyperechoic inclusions in the cartilage cap.
CLINICALLY SIGNIFICANT PARAMETERS OF GAIT
Yefimov A.P.
Researches of biomechanical parameters of gait are carried out at flatfoot, arthritis deformans and consequences of fractures of the lower extremities by an accelerography (study group consisted of 2988 persons). The method is applicable for studying push functions of the lower extremities - sharpness. Results are issued in the form of the table push the accelerations registered in various sites of a body in norm and at flatfoot. The gait accelerograms are presented in norm and at consequences of fractures and arthritis deformans. The analysis of results is carried out. The most informative biomechanics parameters of gait are allocated: angular speed for joints (hailstones/sek); acceleration angular and linear - for muscles (m/sek2); sharpness - for bones (m/sek3). Besides in conclusions amortization functions of the spring arch of foot and muscles of feet and a backbone are reflected, at a pathology directed on decrease push loadings on a head and a brain that is especially appreciable at expressed flatfoot. Thus the biomechanics of movements of a head integrity reflects all set compensative and the adaptive phenomena in locomotors system at a pathology and is an informative indicator of locomotion symmetry Locomotion character makes considerable impact on head and brain biomechanics in norm and at a pathology.

Tikhilov R.M., Dokolin S.Y., Vorobjev S.L., Dubovik V.V., Bazarov I.S.
Primary synovial chondromatosis of a shoulder is quite rare in clinical practice. The diagnostics of this pathology has to include the histological examination of intraarticular material to detect the signs of tissue malignant transformation. Currently surgical intervention of this disease involves the removal of intra-articular cartilaginous bodies and local synovectomy of the affected joint by arthroscopic or open methods. The authors describe the clinical, histologic and arthroscopic features of primary synovial chondromatosis of the shoulder in order to assess the possibility of its minimally invasive correction. The clinical example of diagnostics and treatment of patient with this pathology was presented.

Two following major methods of operative treatment were used: external fixation and combination of external and internal fixation. According to characteristics of posterior part of pelvis injuries patient were distributed as following: 19 patients with rupture of sacro-iliac joint, 15 patients with fracture of sacrum. In 18 patients injuries were associated with neuropathy of plexus sacralis. Follow-up long term results were estimated by Majeed scale. In the group of patients with vertically unstable injuries excellent results were achieved in 15 (45%) cases, good - in 10 (30%), satisfactory - in 9 (25%) patients.
SOME ASPECTS OF SECONDARY DEFORMITIES DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN WITH POSTBURN SCARS, PRINCIPLES OF SURGICAL TREATMENT
Filippova O.V., Afonichev K.A., Baindurashvili A.G., Galyana S.I., Stepanova Y.V., Tsyplakova M.S.
The authors determined the characteristics of secondary scar deformities in children depending on its localization and specificity of the primary injury. For the period from 2008 to 2010 we examined and treated 184 children with scar deformities of varying degrees of severity and location. The examination included: clinical methods including neurological examination, as well as rentgenography, electroneuromyography, ultrasound, CT and MRI, depending on indications. In addition, depending on the localization of a deformity were performed stabilographic and biomechanical studies. Surgical and medical treatment of cicatricial deformity in children depends on the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the affected segment. In planning the reconstruction of treatment, must be taken into account the conditions of local blood circulation, which can vary greatly depending on the duration of the existence the deformity and the etiology of the primary lesion. Basic principles of prophylactic clinical examination of pediatric patients at the stages of rehabilitation:
SYMPTOM COMPLEX OF CHRONICAL ATLANTOAXIAL SUBLUXATION IN PAEDIATRIC PATIENTS
Baindurashvili A.G., Ivanova N.E., Kobyzev A.E., Kononova E.L.
The objective of this study is to determine the complex of symptoms, including both orthopedic and neurological changes that occur against the backdrop of long-existing disturbances of the atlanto-axial joint. The authors conducted in-depth analysis of the orthopedic and neurological examination of 58 children aged between 10 and 17 years with first diagnosed disturbances of relationship between C1 and C2 vertebrae. Complexes of symptoms are identified from the combination of clinical data obtained with in-depth orthopedic and neurological examinations that are pathognomonic for lateral and posterior atlanto-axial chronic subluxation. Rotational subluxation of C1-C2 vertebral-motor segment was associated with concomitant neurological disorders and additionally with the no gross structural deformity of the spine and the disturbed foot support function in all cases. Using of the study findings will allow to make an adequate diagnosis and to determine the correct choice of additional diagnostic and therapeutic methods for this category of patients on the stage of conventional examination of the patient in clinical practice.
SURGICAL TREATMENT OF CHILDREN WITH CONGENITAL IMPAIRED FORMATION OF VERTEBRAE IN THE LUMBAR SPINE
Vissarionov S.V., Kartavenko K.A., Golubev K.E., Batpenov N.D., Abdaliev S.S.
A description of the surgical correction technology and the results of surgical treatment of 26 patients with an isolated violation of the vertebrae formation (lateral and posterolateral hemivertebra) at the lumbar spine in Russia and Kazakhstan are presented. The age of patients ranged from 1 year 6 months to 8 years 4 months. After instrumental correction of spinal deformity on the background of the lateral hemivertebrae scoliosis angle ranged from 0 to 6°. The degree of correction ranged from 94 to 100%. After extirpation of the posterolateral hemivertebrae the residual angle of scoliotic deformity ranged from 0 to 4° (average 2,5°), the degree of correction ranged from 95 to 100%, the kyphotic angle of the component from 9 to -6° (average 2,2°). Results were studied in terms from 2 to 7 years after surgery.

Kuzmin V.P., Tarasov S.O., Popov I.N., Mironov S.V., Voytenkov A.F., Kononir N.N., Krylova N.N.
Humeral fractures in children are from 4 up to 10% of the general number of child fractures. Recently the trend is marked to expansion of indications to operative treatment despite of mainly conservative treatment of humeral shaft fractures. The experience of humeral shaft fractures operative treatment with use of Ender nails was analyzed. 8 humeral bones were treated with use of 2 nails, 15 humeral bones - with use of 1 nail only. The good and excellent results were received in both groups of patients. At the same time group with monolateral osteosynthesis (with 1 nail) had statistically significant (p<0,01) decreasing of surgery time (average difference 16 min), and also it had statistically significant (p <0,001) decreasing of X-ray exposition time (average difference 23 sec) in comparison with group where the osteosynthesis was done with use of 2 nails. The results received in study show necessity of the further work for this direction.
A PRIMARY TEST OF COMBINED THROMBOPROPHYLAXIS AT LOWER EXTREMITIES ARTHROPLASTY: ASPECTS AND VARIANTS OF USAGE
Akhtyamov I.P., Kolesnikov M.A., Shigaev E.S., Ziatdinov B.G., Gatina E.B., Korotkova O.S.
Expansion of vein thrombosis and embolism remains a serious problem in traumatology and orthopedics up to the present day. Maintaining the balance between the efficiency of thromboprophylaxis and the danger of post operative hemorrhage can be achieved only when the prevention medication, its dose and the duration of use have been correctly chosen. An anticoagulant of the new generation (Pradaxa), per oral direct thrombin inhibitors dabigatran etexilate to the utmost complies with the above specified requirements that are why the authors decided in favor of its use in everyday clinical practice. A primary test for open use of dabigatran in 48 patients who underwent hip or knee arthroplasty has been carried out. Taking into account the highest risk of thromboembolic complications after large joints plasty, the method of mechanical prophylaxis DVT - electro neurostimulation of shin muscles has been introduced into clinical practice. According to the results of follow-up of the patients, who received different anticoagulants, the algorithm of an anticoagulant's choice has been developed in various kinds of clinical situations with the possibility of changing injectable preparation to per oral forms. Convenience of per oral administration and predictability of dabigatran effect made it possible to provide consistency of hospital and out-patient stages of treatment, which also contributed to the reduction of thromboembolic complications, especially at an out-patient stage.
SURGICAL TREATMENT OF ADULT PATIENTS WITH CONGENITAL CLUBFOOT IN SEVERITY DEGREE
Mukhamadeev A.A., Norkin I.A., Koryshkov N.A., Balayan V.D., Kireev S.N., Ediev M.S.
There were treated 48 patients (adolescents and adults) with severe congenital clubfoot in Saratov Research Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics. 43 patients had the age ranged from 16 to 30, 5 patients had the age over 30. 19 patients had bilateral clubfoot, 29 patients had unilateral clubfoot including 19 on right side and 10 left side. To improve treatment results and to prevent deformity recurrence we developed two-staged surgery for congenital clubfoot treatment in adults. Cartilages of talo-navicular, talo-calcanean, cuneo-talar joints are deleted and deformity is corrected with external fixator on I stage. Surgeon performs external fixator resetting, autobone grafting of these joints with compressive arthrodesis on second stage. This method results in full foot reconstruction, good functional outcome, full weight-bearing and improves patient life's quality.

In the article recent publications dedicated to unicompartmental knee arthroplasty are analyzed. Evolution of indications and contraindications, mid- and late term results, difference in functional outcomes in comparison with total knee arthroplasty are discussed. Taking into consideration all relevant information unicompartmental knee arthroplasty may be considered as effective and reliable method of treatment of patients with knee osteoarthrosis and osteonecrosis.
COXA-VERTEBRAL SYNDROME AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE IN HIP ARTHROPLASTY (REVIEW)
Denisov A.O., Shilnikov V.A., Barns S.A.
Lumbosacral spine and hip joints is a complex physiological functions of the co-operation of a large number of anatomical structures. Lesions of the links in the system can mutually afflict each other. Combined pathology of the hip and lumbosacral spine is called hip-spine syndrome, or coxa-vertebral syndrome. Symptoms of the joint and spine are very similar and only a careful examination and clinical examination may find the differences. As the disease progresses the hip increases the restriction of movement, there is a contracture of the limbs in a vicious position, which leads to an increase in tilt of the pelvis, increased lumbar lordosis and to functional shortening of limbs on the affected side. This gives rise to functional impairment, and then strain the joints of his spine and disease - osteochondrosis and scoliosis. After the successful operation of total hip replacement is often progressive clinical lesions of vertebral segment, which is manifested pain and is often offset by the results of arthroplasty as the restoration of movement in the hip joint, and the change in length limb after arthroplasty leads to rupture formed a functional stereotype change in the mobility of the lumbar spine, pelvis regression bias that causes the dynamic compression spinal nerve root. Depending on the duration of the existence, severity and nature of changes in the pelvic girdle is suitable correction of equipment replacement surgery, including, for example, in some cases, deliberate shortening or lengthening the preservation of the lower extremity, offset change, etc.
OSTEOCYTIC REMODELING: QUESTION HISTORY MODERN REPRESENTATIONS AND POSSIBILITIES OF THE CLINICAL ESTIMATION
Avrunin A.S.
The article discusses in a chronological order the terms used by different researchers during over 150 years to describe the phenomenon of osteocytic remodeling (halisteresis, oncosis with trypsis, Inseln von basophiler Substanz, zone of diffusion, intermediate resorption areas, sinus type of resorption, liquid bone, osteocytic osteolysis, osteocytes of osteoblastic type, osteocytes of osteoclastic type, resorption periosteocytaire, nid d'abeilles, calciolysis, cementolysis, osteocytic remodeling). According to the authors' opinion a big step forward has been made in developing functional morphology of this phenomenon and defining the circle of problems, which being solved will allow further qualitative development of osteocytic remodeling concept. The time has come to systematize the known facts, and basing on its results to outline further directions of experimental-theoretical studies aimed at elaboration of methods of osteocytic remodeling and their implementation in clinical practice.

Q: Trying to understand Render Loop of AutoLayout in iOS Hello I'm trying to understand Auto Layout's Render Loop which is introduced in WWDC 2018 High Performance Auto Layout
They said when Engine(Auto Layout) calculated equation of Constraints and then engine inform the value to View
At Last view call superview to call setNeedsLayout
So I tried to check this
this is my view

BlueView is SuperView and GreenView is Subview
and I override setNeedsLayout, layoutSubviews, draw and updateConstraints to check order of method call
the result was like this

I can understand except 4 times of setNeedsLayout Call and Only Superview call setNeedsLayout
These are my questions

*

*Why only SuperView call setNeedsLayout

*Why setNeedsLayout called 4 times in this case

This is my Code
class SuperView: UIView {
    override func updateConstraints() {
        super.updateConstraints()
        print("SuperView : updateConstraints")
    }

    override func setNeedsLayout() {
        super.setNeedsLayout()
        print("SuperView : setNeedsLayout")
    }

    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()
        print("SuperView : layoutSubviews")
    }

    override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
        super.draw(rect)
        print("SuperView : draw")
    }
}

class SubView: UIView {
    override func updateConstraints() {
        super.updateConstraints()
        print("SubView : updateConstraints")
    }

    override func setNeedsLayout() {
        super.setNeedsLayout()
        print("SubView : setNeedsLayout")
    }

    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()
        print("SubView : layoutSubviews")
    }

    override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
        super.draw(rect)
        print("SubView : draw")
    }
}

A: AutoLayout Engine set value from AutoLayout Engine model (which calculated with constraints) in layoutSubviews()
setNeedsLayout called in superview because something trigger this. I think it because of changing hierarchy (adding subview) after this you add constraints to the subview (that's also trigger setNeedsLayout), change priority of constraints also trigger this.

*

*add or remove subviews

*intrinsicContentSize changed

*activate or deactivate constraints

*change constraints priority

This points trigger setNeedsLayout() in superview.
I hope this helped you!

There were no injuries as a result of the attack on the BCR Somme, the ministry said. The pirates opened fire at midnight local time, about 250 nautical miles (463 kilometers) off Somalia's coast, officials added. An hour after the attack, the French command and supply ship chased down one of the pirates' skiffs, and detained five suspected pirates, it said. A second skiff involved in the attack got away. The BCR Somme was carrying supplies off Somalia's coast to forces involved in the European anti-piracy operation, called "Atalante," the ministry said. Europe and other Western powers have stepped up their maritime patrols off Somalia's coast following a spate of pirate attacks over the past year. Somalia's transitional government, which has a tenuous grip on power, has been unable to stop the pirates, many of whom are based in Somalia's port cities.
Those who have tracked pirate activity say it started in the 1980s in Somalia, when the pirates claimed they were aiming to stop the rampant illegal fishing and dumping that continues to this day off the Somali coast. Piracy accelerated after the fall of the Somali government in the early 1990s and began to flourish after shipping companies started paying ransoms. Those payments started out being in the tens of thousands of dollars and have since climbed into the millions. Some experts say companies are simply making the problem worse by paying the pirates.
