The Bachelorette Australia (Season 4) – Episode 5: Please Invite Him to Your Wedding
October 24, 2018 October 25, 2018 Filed under:
What's that? Did I just hear Robert refer to Charlie as Charles? It's like he just signs the execution warrant on Nathan and puts a baseball cap on backwards and somehow he is King.
And, as in all tyrannical dynasties, the rest of them are a little on edge.
"Boo!" yells Osher, suddenly appearing from the butler's pantry.
Noticing their frayed nerves, Osher apologises for the joke, then slaps them with a double-date card.
"Two of you will go on the date, but only one of you will be coming back. Have fun, Ivan and Bill!" and he magically disappears in a puff of smoke.
Ivan is devastated. He has no idea why he is on this date because he has poured his heart and soul out to Ali in interpretative dance – at every opportunity.
Wow. Talk about answering his own question.
He just can't cope. And in a world first, a Bachelorette contestant does a diva run, in tears to the bathroom with three of the others in tow to comfort him. Like that's going to dispel stereotypes about male dancers.
The other bloke to be chosen is Bill. He's pretty sure that he's there because of some sort of edict from King Charles.
We are treated to a flashback to the previous cocktail party where Charlie is talking to Ali:
"Bill's not genuine. He's pushing his own agenda," says Charles, clearly pushing his own agenda.
Anyway, apparently the way to tell whether someone is genuine is to make them prepare lunch for you and the bloke you are competing against.
Bill heads off to the kitchen so that Ali and Ivan can chat.
Ali wants Ivan to step up; Ivan want to be on Step Up. Two, three months tops, he will have made it in the States (hahahahaha) and then he and Ali can be joined in a state of neverending hip hop and jazz hands and perpetual pregnancy as Ali spits out his troupe of Ivanettes.
Sounds dreamy.
Ivan wants to kiss Ali, but she thinks that would be disrespectful to Bill, but really she's afraid that his outspoken virility means that he might impregnate her with his tongue.
But that's all OK, because Ivan reckons he's made his point.
Bill has served up something mediocre for lunch that the producers don't bother showing us and Ivan is sent into the kitchen to make dessert.
This should be idiot-proof, except:
Ali wants some sort of pretentious thing where avocado is used in a dessert.
Ivan has never seen an avocado before.
The recipe doesn't have pictures.
Ivan puts two WHOLE avocados in a blender. He is either the dumbest person who ever set foot in a kitchen, or some sort of master-mind-culinary-date-saboteur. Apparently it is pretty much impossible to conduct a romantic conversation when a Kenwood blender is trying to pulverise couple of avo seeds.
"Some of the blokes are saying…" attempts Ali.
Grrrrrrrrzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
I know who's spreading that bullshit. It's…."
"Bill, I feel…."
"Ali, I…"
Grrrrrrzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
And to be perfectly honest, Ivan probably still had a chance…right up until Ali started pulling shards of Hass skin out of her teeth.
Bill gets the rose, and Ivan gets to moonwalk out of there. At least Ali offers to accompany him to the door, concerned he might knock himself out on a light fixture like he almost did coming out of the kitchen.
Ivan is hurt – like, emotionally.
"She's made a mistake. If she thinks she's gunna go through all the boys and then come back to me…no fucking way."
He fights back tears.
"Not even is she replicates every move in every Sia vid eva."
OK. No threat.
Meanwhile, Bill proudly strides into the house with his rose on full display.
"Who thinks I'm not here for the right reasons?"
Crickets.
"I told her you're feeding lines," Charlie admits.
"Well I got a rose, so na-na-na-na-na!"
Charlie takes it like a man, assuming the man is John McEnroe, as he throws his imaginary racquet and storms off the court out of the lounge room.
The next day, Ali has invited all the good-looking boys, and country Dan, to a sprawling manor where the boys are to spend the day wrangling children.
Osher has abducted said children from the surrounding estates. They all have names like Ivoca, and their parents won't miss them because they assume they are all with Peter Dutton approved au pairs.
"On the count of three," announces Osher, "you are to run to the human you would like to spend the rest of the day with."
After wrenching their horrified fingers from where they are wrapped around his thighs, they all make a run for Todd.
Harrison gets there first, and the rest of them reluctantly pick one of the others.
"This is my Hairy-Bear!" says Todd, and Harrison immediately regrets his decision.
The challenge involves putting together a kid's push-bike. Not surprisingly, Charlie breezes through this challenge. The media has leaked that Charlie has an eight-year-old son, something which hasn't managed to make his honest and open narrative with Ali.
"And the winner is Charlie!" announces Osher.
Pete's kid looks like he is about to golly in his face.
'You loser."
Charlie gets the one-on-one time. There's no surprise here. Charlie gets the rose.
"I've ticked a really huge box," says Charlie to camera.
I can't confirm that, but there was some blurred-out kissing.
King Charles returns to the castle mansion like he has been off crusading for three years and has returned with the Holy Grail. He declares his requited love for Ali, then heads off to commission an Elizabethan poet laureate to pen a timeless sonnet before pondering whose death warrant he will sign next.
The cocktail party is quickly upon them. Ali has had to rush back from a meeting she and Osher had to attend with a child psychologist at the country manor, and in her rush, she has forgotten to put on her pants.
Paddy, seriously starved of one-on-one contact with a woman, blows his melon.
Bill confronts Charlie and some-how they end up with some sort of bromance. Jules, observing this, is LITERALLY frozen in place – gobsmacked.
Then Ali chooses Bill for a quick chat.
So much for the bromance. Charlie hides in a pot plant to eaves-drop on every word before going the full Serena Williams:
"I'm a father, and my son is going to see this, and I am not a possessive f-wit. It's not fair. It's not fair. It's not fair…"
Yet the boys remain silent. Since Charlie has dobbed on all of them, they would just come across as petty if they were to in return dob on Charlie.
He returns to stand sullenly with Bill at the rose ceremony, where once again Jules wears his emotions on his sleeve, this time with good reason. There is no rose for Jules.
His demise now means that one-third of the remaining men go by Dan/Danny/Daniel. One of those hasn't said a word all season, one stuck his tongue down Ali's throat without an invite, and one of them bored her senseless with a description of his degustation.
These qualities apparently trump a mo, blonde highlights, and a first impression involving a segway.
Despite this, Jules takes it in his stride.
"Ali. You're a bloody darling. One of you had better marry her…and invite me to the wedding."
If I was getting married anytime soon, I bloody-well would.
I know he was never going to win, but at least he had a little bit of personality. He was a little ball of happiness floating in a sea of brooding testosterone.
And I, for one, shall miss him.

Sen. Johnson honors victims of Waukesha Christmas parade attack
Sen. Johnson held a moment of silence on the Senate floor, saying, "the victims and the community of Waukesha deserve justice."
Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) honored victims of the Waukesha Christmas parade attack Wednesday on the Senate floor when he delivered remarks then held a moment of silence.
Darrell Brooks, who reportedly has a lengthy criminal record, allegedly drove an SUV through a parade Nov. 21, killing six people and injuring 62 others.
Several of the injured, including three children, are still in critical condition, according to Johnson.
"Families with their children who came to see Santa Claus, high school bands, and the Dancing Grannies instead witnessed a horror that will leave life-long psychological scars," Johnson said. "First responders and law enforcement who rushed in to administer first aid and compassionately deal with the tragedy will be burdened by their terrible memories for the rest of their lives."
Today a moment of silence in the U.S. Senate for the victims of the Waukesha Christmas Parade attack.We pray for healing for those broken in both body and spirit and also pray for those who will help them heal. pic.twitter.com/jQ6KN045Ai— Senator Ron Johnson (@SenRonJohnson) December 1, 2021
Johnson said, "I have no doubt that the citizens of Waukesha will recover from this tragedy," with great effort.
The senator also spoke to the importance of the rule of law. "It will also be the responsibility of civil society to administer justice for this heinous act of evil, because the victims and the community of Waukesha deserve justice," he said.
He also listed the names of the deceased before turning over the floor to Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), who spoke before Johnson introduced the moment of silence.
The deceased victims are Virginia Sorenson, Leanna Owen, Tamara Durand, Jane Kulich, Wilhelm Hospel and 8-year-old Jackson Sparks.
Brooks faces six counts of first-degree homicide.

This is the most common issue, & can often be solved without the unit being sent in. Double check your power supply to make sure it is plugged in both at the wall & at the power inlet on the unit itself, or try unplugging the unit & then plugging it back in.
Majority of the time the EcoWasher® just needs to be reset. To do this simply unplug the power cord connected to the EcoWasher® for 5 minutes & plug it back in. If the red light still appears after resetting the unit, then the customer should send in their EcoWasher for repair service.
This is a rare occurrence that is that is typically caused by the washing machine itself & does not necessarily mean that the EcoWasher unit is not working. Newer style washing machines have settings that can cause the EcoWasher's lights to flash blue, instead of showing a solid blue light.
Make sure the power supply is completely plugged into the wall & into the unit itself.
Is it a new washing machine with a weighing setting? Is the water constantly flowing while the light is flashing?
If the water is constantly flowing while the light is flashing, this is an indication that there is an underlying problem.
If the water is not constantly flowing while the light is flashing, this could be because the washing machine is weighing the clothes first & determining if more water is needed before continuing the cycle. Allow a few extra minutes, the EcoWasher should then start up completely & do its job.
This is what we like to call the "cop car effect," & is usually caused by a malfunction with the power supply. First, you can try resetting the unit & double checking that the power cord is plugged in fully on both the wall & the unit itself. If the problem continues, it means that there could be an issue with the control board.
What you are hearing is the EcoWasher® moisture alarm (moisture sensor) indicating a possible leak inside of the unit, or detecting even a small amount of condensation.
Evaluate the area to find the possible leak.
If there is no detectable leak, try to reset the EcoWasher by unplugging it for 5 minutes.

Just two days earlier, Gravelyn's doctor said she needed to start giving herself hormone injections instead of getting shots in the doctor's office.
She called Carol Health's phone number for more information and then made the request online. A short time later, a registered nurse arrived on her doorstep.
"End of story. Life has been wonderful ever since," Gravelyn said.
Now she requests a Carol Health nurse every eight weeks. The RN arrives within an hour to administer the hormone injection prescribed by Gravelyn's doctor. The medicine relieves extreme menopause symptoms triggered by a hysterectomy.

Yesterday, August 25th, I was at the computer preparing a talk for a Symposium at Duquesne Universisty on Global Sustainability. My working title is: "Water, Refugees, and Geophysics – Are Humanitarian Water Problems 'Our' Problems?" Nevertheless, when WhatsAPP started buzzing on my phone, and I saw the call was coming from Bangladesh, I still had to think for a moment whether or not this was "My" problem.
On a very scratchy connection, that might as well have been coming from a phone under water in a monsoon flooded ravine in a remote corner of Bangladesh, was Sattar Islam Nirob. Sattar is a Rohingya aid worker and Rohingya youth representative (to UNHCR). We met in Cox's Bazar in November, 2017.
Being Canadian, my first question of course was "how is the weather?" The monsoon rains had stopped for the moment.
He had called to remind me of the 1 year anniversary of the August 25, 2017 beginning of the latest round of ethnic cleansing in Myanmar, the mass exodus of more than 700,000 Rohingya Muslims, the murders, the rapes, the orphans, and the protests. "What protests?" I asked. And what are they asking for? Sattar said thousands of men and women were protesting in the camps, requesting not for food nor housing, but with only two demands…secure human rights, and international protection. "Send me pictures?" I asked. And here they are.
I am willing to ignore the "cultural appropriation" seen in the photos. "Never again" was likely first widely used in association with the last stand of the Jews against the Romans at Massada, and of course became part of the lingua franca in association with the Warsaw Ghetto, Dachau, and the Holocaust in general. Given that last week in Singapore, on August 22nd, the honorary Canadian citizen, Nobel Peace Prize recipient, and Myanmar leader Daw Aung San Suu Kyi alluded to transforming the Rohingya's Rakhine state into a beach resort for foreigners, how many more UN and Canadian envoys must be sent to Bangladesh before the words Never Again are put into action?
The Society of Exploration Geophysicists and the Foundation Geoscientists Without Borders also made a trailer for the Kakuma podcast. Many of the photographs are by Josie Bauman from Quest University Canada who was half of the documentary film crew.
Besides the podcast being released on June 20, World Refugee Day, I was a Keynote speaker on the same day (serendipity or fate) at the geoscience conference in Vancouver RFG, Resources for Future Generations 2018. I had the great honor of speaking on Water Constraints with Dr. Jay Famiglietti, from NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology - Caltech, and now the University of Saskatchewan; Dr. Jason Gurdak from San Francisco State University who spoke about the groundwater situation in California; and Nalaine Morin, of the Tahltan First Nation, who gave a water perspective from both her engineering and aboriginal perspectives. My talk was titled Looking for "Good Water in Bad Places".
While I found the talks of all the co-presenters powerful and engaging, I found the presentation of Jay Famiglietti profound....very, very important stuff. Dr. Famigilietti presented an overview of the 15 years of data collection and interpretation of NASA's GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment). With no fanfare or hyperbole, he simply went through the results which show conclusively, on a world scale, in an irrefutable fashion....our groundwater resources are being depleted worldwide, the depletion of groundwater resources is where we grow most of the food in the world, the ice caps are melting, and sea level is rising in an inverse manner. We all know this, more or less, but it is too easy to ignore until you see the big picture with factual support.
Dr. Famiglietti will now be a Canada 150 Research Chair in Hydrology and Remote Sensing. Great catch for Canada.
From 1986 to 2007, Joseph Kony and the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) killed about 100,000 people in Acholiland in Northern Uganda, abducted and enslaved about an equal number, and displaced 1.7 million from their villages. About 2 million people lived in 200 displaced persons camps, with the largest holding more than 50,000 Acholi. Yet in our two weeks working in approximately 25 villages all over Acholiland, we did not see a single marked mass grave, see any remaining housing structures from the camps, or see a single marker or monument memorializing the violence and terror…until we went to Atiak.
Until January 17, I had never heard of Atiak. It is in the far northwest corner of Amuru District, 30 km south of the South Sudan border. Atiak sits at the end of Acholiland before one enters into the West Nile area, an ethnically and linguistically very different area. One of the female students had done an outstanding job of organizing the community engagement for a well repair there. Two communities were contributing a substantial amount of cash toward the well repair and the exploration program. They would supply and cook for us a goat at each site. They would supply labour. And they desperately needed the water. As a few of us, including myself, were somewhat done with the long, dusty drives, I was looking for any reasonable reason not to go to Atiak. Its remoteness, though, was just one more reason why the villages near the town were good airbenders.
Atiak, itself, had been one massive camp through the last 10 years of the LRA insurrection. If one looks on Google Earth at the 2007 image, you will see thousands of tightly packed mud huts. Today, none of those camp huts remain. The town center sits at the intersection to the road to Adjumani and the South Sudanese refugee camps. I guessed that there would be at least a coffee shop to succor the many NGO workers that must drive through there on the way to the West Nile. We saw neither foreigners nor a coffee shop. But more surprising, and only 50 m from the only functioning public well, there is a concrete monument with a large plaque, and on the plaque is a very long list of names.
In April 1995, a year before the government began to place the Acholi into concentration camps, LRA rebels entered Atiak. The LRA, who themselves were Acholi, and who even had a senior commander from Atiak, accused the villagers of falsely blaming the LRA for ruthless maiming and for not supporting the LRA cause….though that cause was never quite clear. To prove the villagers wrong, and to punish them, the rebels then rounded up villagers, and students and teachers from the technical college.
The LRA segregated very young children, the elderly, and the pregnant. They shot the rest, ordering the survivors to clap and cheer the rebels on. More than 250 were killed that day, with the names from the students of the technical school being on that plaque. The Atiak massacre prompted the Government of Uganda to break off relations with Sudan, as the rebels had found some refuge across the border. This, in turn, further encouraged Sudan to support the rebels, at least for a while.
While for me, seeing the plaque was unique, the story of villagers being trapped in an untenable position between the government and the LRA was not. While Musseveni's army was preoccupied in a faraway conflict in the Congo, the Ugandan government pushed the creation of village militias armed with bows, called the "Arrow Brigades." They were no match for AK47s, and the LRA rebels would chop off the hands of these primitively armed farmers. Women were encouraged to blow whistles if they saw rebels in the bush; the LRA would chop off the lips of anyone who would signal their advance. The LRA would even cut off the legs of anyone seen on a bicycle as they might provide warning of an impending attack.
The work went very well in Atiak. We repaired a well that had been drilled in 1986. While trapped in the Camp until 2007, the villagers had neither the means nor the money to maintain the well. The repaired well will provide water to about 100 households (approximately 550 persons) in a cluster of villages near the town site. We geophysically sited another well in a highly prospective location, which we expect to be drilled within the next 6 weeks. Colin Miazga once again managed the exploration group that day.
All the photos are from Paul Bauman, and all are of Atiak.
An interesting and important article forwarded to me by two missionary water well drillers from Alaska I met on a desert run in Turkana. As there is no Islamic terrorism and likely Donald Trump is unfamiliar with the Turkana, the drought and famine there are not in the news as they somewhat are in Yemen, Somalia, and neighbouring South Sudan. The very expensive 2013 survey referred to in the article was a highly flawed exploration program whose overly optimistic and unsupported results were reported in the New York Times, BBC and other media, and created false expectations all over the Turkana and Kenya. In contrast, while I am not a supporter of any missionary activities anywhere, it is remarkable what 2 Alaskan water well drillers can accomplish with so few financial resources. I was, and continue to be impressed with what Larry and Joyce are accomplishing.


While CSU quarterback Collin Hill tearing his ACL playing basketball is unfortunate, it's not practical to restrict activities of scholarship athletes.
Basketball is now banned for all non-basketball student-athletes.
Collin Hill, CSU's would-be starting quarterback in 2018, tore his ACL last week while playing hoops, leaving many asking what he was doing playing the sport.
We're also going to ban moving furniture because that's how former Ram Garrett Grayson was hurt in 2014.
Can't grill outside either as there's a long line of athletes who have suffered lacerations in cooking-related accidents.
Hill's injury, the second time he's torn his left ACL, is hugely unfortunate and quickly clouds the outlook on Colorado State University's 2018 season.
He'll have surgery Wednesday and there's no set timetable for his return. But it's hard to imagine him playing a big role, if any, in the fall.
On the surface, it doesn't sound good that the starting quarterback was hurt playing basketball, but the idea of trying to restrict activities of student-athletes on scholarship isn't a solution.
Hill was not recovering from his first ACL tear, which some on social media have alluded to, when he hurt his knee last week. His first injury happened Oct. 8, 2016. His second ACL tear came exactly 17 months later.
He had been medically cleared for the 2017 season, but redshirted as the Rams preserved a year of eligibility. Make no mistake, if there had been an injury to starter Nick Stevens, Hill would have been on the field.
Student-athletes have precious time outside of their sport to be normal college kids. There's nothing wrong with a 20-year-old playing some hoops with friends. If we find he was launching himself off a trampoline in some extreme dunk contest, we have a problem.
He could have been hurt just as easily Monday when the Rams take the field for spring practice.
In the first few days of spring break, athletes around the country have posted pictures of themselves surfing, skiing and everything in between. Nearly all of them will return injury-free.
Even if schools did place restrictions on what recreational activities student-athletes can engage in, there would be no way to police the restrictions.
Hill has probably lost plenty of sleep in the last few days over what happened.
It wasn't malicious. It wasn't even reckless.
There's no way to sanction bad luck, and there's no reason to try.


After seeing the documentary Spielberg, based on the legendary Ohio director, it got me thinking about the huge array of work Steven Spielberg has directed. In one of my early posts I created a quiz based on films he's been involved in away from the camera, but he's certainly earned a more full-scale celebration. How many do you recognise?
The opening lines of All the Love in the World by English by English rockers The Outfield, from their debut studio album Play Deep (1985). Curiously, the trio was far more successful in the US, especially for their other well-known song, Your Love.
I've always been a huge fan of the music video. It's such a great form of expression and when done well, really adds extra dimensions to the song. Here are eight of my favourite videos from well known artists that took imagination to new levels.

text: A style of cartoon animation originating in Japan, with distinctive character and background stylings that visually set it apart from other forms of animation. The term is a transliteration of the English term "animation." Storylines are typically fictional; examples of anime representing most major genres of fiction exist. Anime is broadcast on television, distributed on media such as DVDs, or included in console and computer games. Anime is influenced by Japanese comics known as manga. The history of anime begins at the start of the 20th century, when Japanese filmmakers experimented with the animation techniques that were being explored in the West. During the 1970s, anime developed further, separating itself from its Western roots, and developing unique genres such as mecha (science fiction featuring war machines and giant robots). In the 1980s, anime was accepted in the mainstream in Japan and experienced a boom in production. The 1990s and 2000s saw an increased acceptance of anime in overseas markets. Major genres include science fiction, comedy, drama, fantasy, horror, harem, children's, mecha, romance, samurai-era, shōnen (aimed at young boys), space opera, and sports. (from Wikipedia)

Mamma Mia Houston Tickets
We didn't find anything nearby, but here's what's happening in other cities.
About Mamma Mia HoustonSell tickets
A young girl, a search and a wedding — these are the perfect ingredients to use Abba's music in a theater production. Mamma Mia The Musical makes use of the Swedish pop group as the backdrop in protagonist Sophie's search for her biological father before she ties the knot. Her only wish — for her father to walk her down the aisle. And just like the pop group's unpredictable and lively tunes, Sophie's search led her to three possible candidates as her father. The musical was developed with Abba members and songwriters Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson. As the music for the production was being developed, producer Judy Craymer tapped Catherine Johnson to come up with its book while Anthony Van Laast was asked to do the choreography. Phyllida Lloyd directed the opening night. The show opened on at the Prince Edward Theatre in London's West End on April 6, 1999.
From Sweden with Love
Sweden's Abba captured the world starting in 1974 with the release of their single "Waterloo." But it was while working with legendary theater personality Tim Rice that Mamma Mia The Musical producer Craymer taught of working with the group and adapting their music into a play. She confessed that the Ulvaeus and Andersson were a bit reluctant about allowing their music to be in a musical at first. However, she was able to slowly convince them after saying that it would be used in an original book and not as a tribute show for the Swedish band. She added that aside from convincing the group, she was also occupied on whether the show will be a success as it is helmed by three women — her as a producer, Johnson as writer and Lloyd as director. It did go on to be a success. A great gamble for Craymer and Ulvaeus and Andersson. Mamma Mia The Musical has since been staged in various parts of the world since 1999. It ran in Belgium, United Arab Emirates and Japan and was even performed in a non-English production in Hamburg, Germany in 2002.
Where can I buy Mamma Mia Houston tickets
If you are a theater lover, StubHub is your best option to score all the tickets you need. It is an online ticketing platform offering passes to the hottest concerts, theater productions, sporting events and other live entertainment.
Are all Abba's discography featured in the play?
It is impossible to pack the group's decades worth of songs into a few hours of musical theater. But most of the Swedish quadruplet's well-loved songs can be heard in this production. These include "Chiquitita," "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" "Super Trouper," "Take a Chance on Me," "Thank You For The Music, "Dancing Queen" and "Mamma Mia."
Is the musical the same as the film that featured Meryll Streep?
Yes, the film was based on the musical's book written by Johnson. It was directed by Phyllida Lloyd; the director helmed the premiere night of the musical in 1999. It also starred Amanda Seyfried, Colin Firth and Pierce Brosnan.
Which actors are included in the Mamma Mia Houston production?
In the February to March 2019 production of the musical, it featured actors Sally Wilfert as Donna Sheridan, Felicia Finley as Tanya, Carla Woods as Rosie, Karl Joseph Ko as Skye and Matthew Scott as Sam Carmichael.
Where was the 2019 run of the Mamma Mia Houston show held?
The early 2019 run of Mamma Mia Houston production was held at the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts until March 3, 2019.
What other shows can I go to if I am in Houston?
Well, since everything is big in Texas, you should expect all the hottest and biggest live entertainment in the state. Aside from Mamma Mia, theater lovers can also catch Dear Evan Hansen at the Sarofim Hall at The Hobby Center in November 2019, Elf the Musical at the Sarofim Hall at The Hobby Center in December 2019 and The Color Purple at the Sarofim Hall at The Hobby Center in January 2020.Back to Top

Rotarix Most Beneficial for Poorer Communities in the UK
by Chrisy Ngilneii on January 30, 2018 at 3:02 PM
Childhood vaccination against rotavirus using the vaccine Rotarix has the greatest benefit in the most deprived communities in UK and could help reduce health inequalities across the country, recent research at the University of Liverpool claims.
The infectious stomach bug, which can lead to severe diarrhea, vomiting and fever, is most common in the under-fives. An oral rotavirus vaccine was introduced in the UK in 2013 and is given as two doses for babies aged 8 and 12 weeks.
'Following the introduction of rotavirus vaccination, the incidence of gastrointestinal disease reduced and the impact was greatest among the most deprived populations, despite lower vaccine uptake.'
Using routine health data collected by GPs, walk-in centers and hospitals, the research team found that the incidence of gastrointestinal disease has decreased across all levels of the health-care system in children aged 5 and under since the vaccine's introduction. For example, rotavirus hospitalizations reduced by 80 percent, and walk-in center and GP attendances for infectious gastroenteritis reduced by 32 percent and 13 percent, respectively.
Importantly, vaccine impact was found to be greatest among the most deprived populations despite lower vaccine uptake in these areas. For infants in the most deprived communities, the hospitalizations averted for acute gastroenteritis was double that found in the least deprived communities.
Lead author Dan Hungerford, said: "Rotavirus vaccine is proving to be highly effective at preventing severe childhood gastroenteritis caused by rotavirus in the UK. "We found that like for other childhood vaccinations, rotavirus vaccine uptake is lowest in the most deprived communities. But, crucially, in spite of this finding and because of the higher baseline disease burden, the rotavirus vaccine is having the biggest impact in these communities.
"In England, a disproportionately high number of young children live in the most deprived communities. Therefore, if we prioritize vaccination in the most deprived populations the rotavirus vaccine is likely to give the greatest health benefit and can contribute to reducing health inequalities."
The research also suggests that rotavirus vaccination is helping to reduce the burden on the healthcare system for gastrointestinal disease in un-vaccinated adults.
The research team is continuing to investigate the longer-term impact of rotavirus vaccination on a range of disease outcomes both regionally and globally. In Liverpool, they are currently running public engagement activities and conducting community-based research to better understand the barriers and enablers to childhood vaccinations.

Self Made Men Who Started from Nothing
Taggedfund, valuation
I was recently drawn into an online discussion, attempting to help an inexperienced but entrepreneurial poster understand fundraising options such as debt and equity.
It took a turn for the worse when he asked how to raise $100,000,000 without selling equity, and when I revealed a bank was unlikely to lend that sort of money based on 'an idea' he produced a list of self-made men who started with nothing.
How, he demanded to know, did they shift from rock bottom to fortunes. So I did the research – as you can see, even self-made men who started with nothing started with something.
Andrew Carnegie – borrowed $500 from his mother, who borrowed it using her $700 house as collateral
John D Rockefeller – saved diligently and took on a business partner (ie, diluted equity) with both putting $2,000 of their own savings into the new venture
Richard Branson – borrowed money from his mother to keep his first business The Student magazine afloat, which led to mail-order records (likely on consignment, so positive cashflow until he opened the Virgin Record store)
The Koch brothers, derived their wealth through their father Fred who combined an engineering business partnership (there's that equity sharing again) and a patent that had to survive years of litigation
Ingvar Kamprad – Starting selling matches as a boy, but IKEA was founded with a cash gift from his father
Carlos Slim – was a stock broker with a good financial education, starting his first business only after his personal investments had reached $400,000
Frank Mars – worked in Sales from the age of 19, establishing Mars 10 years later (1910/11) selling candy wholesales from his kitchen until finally funding a factory almost another 10 years later (1920)
These individuals spanned a century of entrepreneurship, and I think everyone would agree that they took responsibility for their own destinies and created their business empires from humble beginnings.
None of them took an idea to a bank and was blessed with an enormous bankroll to trial their idea. These self-made men either built their business:
having first worked hard for many years to build their own savings and investments, or
via a partnership, sharing equity, having a co-founder to support their risk and reward ratio, or
with the help of a loan or gift from a parent (which isn't really rock bottom)
Take responsibility, like these individuals did, and you can create great things in business. Don't hide behind the fact nobody wants to give you $100,000,000 as an excuse for why you're not successful.
Carlos Slim Helu has an estimated net worth in excess of $US81 Billion.

One small correction to one of Mr. Aldridge's examples. Andrew Carnegie's mother was desperately poor until Andrew started making enough money to support her. He bought her the first house she ever owned, and every house she ever owned.
There is an apocryphal story about her taking a mortgage on the house he'd bought her so that he could buy some shares of stock at a time when he didn't have ready cash, but some versions of the story say that he actually borrowed the money from Thomas Scott. In any event the only help Carnegie ever got from his mother was the values and habits she taught him in childhood.

Many thanks Al! When you can't believe Wikipedia, who can you trust?!


Another weekend in the books!
Both of us worked from home on Thursday, which became comical at points (when it snows I can have the attention span of a toddler). Friday we headed to Providence, Rhode Island for the wedding of one of my college roommates.
What a fun weekend! Being back in the city where I went to school, with the people I spent most of my time with while there, was just a joy – and then add a sweet ceremony and a fun dance party, and all was right with the world.
It even snowed a little bit on Friday night!
We had a nice view of the city from the 9th floor. Not bad!
And then we were greeted with another snowstorm Sunday night, but I'm not at all mad about it. I feel like I actually get a lot more done working from home than being in the office, plus I don't have to deal with a commute at all (hallelujah). Plus, it definitely feels like wintertime, which always makes the springtime that much sweeter!

With Eye-Light and Love and Other Stories
Michelle Repke, Western Michigan UniversityFollow
Date of Graduation
Thisbe Nissen
Jeffrey Abshear
A collection of short stories worked upon over two years independently and one semester guided by Thisbe Nissen. The title story is the first acceptable story written, and was the direction the other stories also followed, using varying sentence structure and concrete images. Some stories experiment with time while others experiment with unreliable narrators. All play with the lengths people will go to in order to satisfy their desires. Or, as in one story, what one will do when one knows no way of satisfying her desire; or, as in another, how retrospection can add another level of yearning. There are seven stories in all, whose titles are as follows: "The Kettle," "Bones," "Maura, Eighteen, Child of Spirit Vision," "And Then the Ice Caps Will Melt and People Will Move to Higher Elevations," "Time's Feet," "January Winds," and "With Eye-Light and Love." Influences stem from Haruki Murakami, along with Kelly Link, Ben Marcus, and Miranda July, though some probably also came from student writers in workshop classes who had written more successful stories.

analyze and discuss whether the Delaware court would likely uphold the Delaware law banning the importation of EPI's Brite Clean Floor Cleaner into the state and why or why not.
Background: TLG has explained to the GC owners that it is vital to understand the legal system and processes, including the court system and jurisdiction of the courts. This is especially important as GC plans to conduct business over the internet and thus, will have potential transactions throughout the U.S. and, possibly, globally.
For the initial meeting between GC owners and TLG, Winnie and Ralph asked you to present an overview of the law and the legal system. Your presentation explained federalism, the court system, and common law v. civil law, and explained the nature of law and the legal process.
Review all assigned materials listed in Overview.
Some of the points included in your presentation are:
(1) the primary purpose of the law is to establish a set of rules and guidelines for society to promote order and to create parameters for acceptable and prohibited behavior;
(2) laws are inevitably subject to interpretation and reinterpretation by courts;
(3) laws must be reasonably specific, and yet sufficiently general, with inherent flexibility, to withstand the rigors of interpretation and the "test of time";
(4) laws that strike a balance as described in (3) above, usually endure as relevant, applicable rules, even with societal changes and reinterpretations;
•example: the U.S. Constitution has withstood the test of time, partly because of an inherent balance of specificity, generality, and flexibility
(5) laws are promulgated and interpreted by human beings, and thus, are imperfect;
(6) some laws have a worthy purpose, but are difficult to adequately enforce i.e. speed limit laws;
(7) all laws are not necessarily ethical; some conduct can be legal, but considered unethical;
(8) U.S. law has a very dominant protective purpose – protecting all citizens, as well as providing special protections for certain groups of people, in certain circumstances, i.e., minors;
(9) fairness to all is a primary goal of the law, but what is fair to one group may be unfair to another group; what is fair in one situation may be unfair in another situation – every right granted to an individual or group, to some extent, impinges on the rights of another individual or group;
(10) legislatures enacting laws, and courts interpreting laws, must weigh and balance the right(s) granted v. the rights restricted by a specific law to determine if the law is justifiable and fair – this weighing and balancing involves determining if there a compelling public interest or purpose for the law that justifies granting certain rights while restricting other rights;
•example: highway speed limit laws protect everyone (drivers, passengers, and pedestrians), but also restrict the freedom of drivers to drive at a speed of their choice – on balance, the restriction is easily justified as there is an important purpose in protecting drivers, passengers, and pedestrians
•example: laws that prohibit alcohol consumption/purchase by minors grant rights to those 21 years and older, and restrict rights of those under 21 years – on balance, society, legislatures, and courts have determined this law is justified as Society has a strong public interest in protecting minors who may not have reached a level of maturity and judgment to handle the right to choose to consume/purchase alcohol
(11) the familiar symbol for law and the legal system is the Scale of Justice showing a blindfolded lady that represents the weighing and balancing process necessary to balance rights v. restrictions granted and imposed by laws.
Review all assigned materials in Overview.
To explain constitutional law and how it might apply to GC operations and transactions, you decide to prepare a hypothetical example scenario and an accompanying analysis to present to GC owners.
Assume the hypothetical scenario you prepared is as follows:
Hypothetical Example Scenario: EPI sells its green cleaning products to customers in most states. Its biggest product sales are in the Mid-Atlantic states.
Recently, the Delaware legislature enacted a law banning all sales and importation of EPI's "Brite Clean Floor Cleaner" in Delaware until further notice. It was discovered that one of the ingredients, derived from corn, is contaminated and causes a quick-growing mold to spread on surfaces to which it is applied. The mold can be toxic to humans and can cause damage to floors.
EPI challenged the new law as unconstitutional.
Address the questions below.
1. Applying the doctrine of "police powers" derived from the 10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, analyze and discuss whether the Delaware court would likely uphold the Delaware law banning the importation of EPI's Brite Clean Floor Cleaner into the state and why or why not. Explain your conclusion in detail.
Format Instructions:
Prepare the analysis in a report, addressed to Winnie and Ralph, to be used in discussion with the GC owners.
The report should address the questions in the Instructions above. Label each question and follow the format below.

The St. Patrick's Day Parade in Dogtown is always one of the biggest street parties of the year. The usually quiet south city neighborhood gets a full green makeover on St. Patrick's Day each year as residents from all over St. Louis flock to Tamm Avenue looking for a good time. The event always includes lots of pups outside partying with their humans, too. It is Dogtown, after all.
Check out all of the happy faces (and wagging tails) we saw at the event this year. For photos of Saturday's parade downtown, check out our previous gallery.

ARF Central Committee Condemns Hate Crime in Armenia
by Ara Khachatourian
in Armenia, Featured Story, Latest, News, Top Stories
ARF Western US Central Committee chairman Avedik Izmirlian
LITTLE ARMENIA– Two days after the parliamentary elections in Armenia, a homemade firebomb was used to vandalize DIY, a bar in Yerevan frequented by non-traditionalist thinkers in Armenia and a safe-haven for the often-persecuted LGBT community in Armenia. This act is a hate crime.
The Internet and social media sites are abuzz with condemnation of this deplorable act, which some forces are blaming the Armenian Revolutionary Federation because of the suspects' alleged affiliation with the party.
Asbarez caught up with ARF Western US Central Committee Chairman Avedik Izmirlian, who, on behalf of the ARF condemned the hate crime and called for "frank and honest discussion about intolerance."
Below is the complete interview:
ASBAREZ: What are your views on the vandalism incident in Yerevan last week?
AVEDIK IZMIRLIAN: The Armenian Revolutionary Federation Western US Central Committee strongly condemns and deplores the recent vandalism and destruction of a business in Yerevan. We also find the incident's root impetus of homophobia and intolerance as equally reprehensible. We believe that those responsible for this act must be brought to justice based on the letter of the law.
ASBAREZ: Soon after the incident there was a lot of finger pointing at the ARF because individuals allegedly involved with incident had affiliations with the organization. Should the ARF be blamed for this act?
A.I.: Equally deplorable are efforts by certain individuals and groups to politicize this matter and point the finger of blame at the Armenian Revolutionary Federation.
The Armenian Revolutionary Federation had no involvement whatsoever with this crime. Our party was founded on the credo of advocating individual rights and fighting all forms of oppression, exploitation and discrimination.
We also strongly condemn and find it absolutely unacceptable any effort to legitimize this crime and any inflammatory statements that further exacerbates the situation.
From its inception, the ARF has been on the forefront of the movement for human rights and justice and has relentlessly combated efforts to curtail or stifle fundamental rights and freedoms be that of a nation, a group or individuals.
ASBAREZ: This is an incident that took place in Armenia, why should it matter here in the United States?
A.I.: Because this is a universal issue. Discrimination based on race, religion, nationality or sexual orientation has always been a contentious issue in societies as advanced as the one here in the United States. It is the ARF's conviction, however, that in a civilized society, oppressing or stifling individual rights is unacceptable and must be outright rejected.
ASBAREZ: Are there lessons to be taken from this situation?
A.I.: We believe that this incident must become an opportunity for frank and honest discussion about intolerance, persecution and discrimination in our society and serve as an impetus for the advancement of justice and human rights.
The ARF's just mission of fighting for the aspiration of the Armenian Nation is anchored on the firm belief that no individual or state has the right to oppress or take away fundamental freedoms. After all that is what propels us-the ARF-to advance and fight for the ARMENIAN CAUSE.

Serge says:
I am very encouraged by this statement, there are no political party in Armenia with any ideology, if ARF could regain its commitment to the founding tenets of the party and show a genuine struggle for human rights, and against oppression and discrimination, the Armenian societies both in Armenia and diaspora are ready to embrace. ARF should understand that human rights are also integral parts of Hay Tad. Mr Izmirlian is right that this heinous hate crime incident must become an opportunity for the advancement of justice and human rights and I think ARF should lead on this perhaps by a visit to the bar and a frank discussion with the owner of the bar. ARF should also engage more directly with the NGOs who are fighting for human rights and environmental issues.
Tsayt says:
Izmirlian: " It is the ARF's conviction, however, that in a civilized society, oppressing or stifling individual rights is unacceptable and must be outright rejected."
Rubin says:

"This is such a misleading evaluation of the events, e.g. setting the pub in fire, with regards to which a criminal charge has been made and therefore, labeling it in any way prior to the court's decision, is merely a grave violation of presumption of innocence. "Such people" means the ultra-liberals who're equally to be blamed for causing a schism in an already deeply divided society. Did you know that DIY had Ataturk's portray hanging on their walls? Did you know that as an LGBT minority, the owner of the pub would not have been a famous band's equally famous lead singer and a downtown pub owner, had there been intolerance in Armenia? Why the need to constantly look for punching bags were there aren't any? Have you seen the video where she and her overpaid-by-grants colleagues called the entire nation "tget" (illiterate, imbecile) and fascists? How can you join the parade against a nation that has fought against the fascists and has been a victim of horrendous Genocide, the Cause of which the party you represent otherwise holds dear… This is a blind leading the blind situation whereby a case that happens in Armenia in a socially and politically different circumstances, gets analyzed from a perspective of western standards without consideration of many nuances that has driven Armenia's absolute public majority against ANYONE – be gay or straight – who'll mingle up with the Turkish side the wrong way. Watch the video and see how the pub advocates distinctly declare that the Turkey is a more open and progressive and tolerant society than Armenia will ever be…. In short, do your research and respect presumption of innocence. When it comes to public values and national interests, everyone is equally accountable before law – whatever one's religious, social, sexual, racial identity. P.S. I'm not a dashnak, never was, and never will be a part of any political party. I do follow every happening in detail. An informed society can achieve social justice. A public that is disinformed on a constant basis won't make it to the nearest bus stop. "
Your arguments are absolutely nonsensical. The bombing of that bar was a criminal action. Period. No one one is saying do not voice your objections against certain activities if you one does not like it. However, the same right that you want to have to air your opinion is the same right that every individual should and must have.
A criminal act, such is the bombing of "adversary" can in no way help strengthen the future of Armenia. It can do the opposite, it will weaken any sense of security and chaos will reign.
The trampling on individual rights is trampling on collective rights, you cannot have one without the other.
The way Armenia is currently heading proves the point and people are finding hope elsewhere. They are leaving en masse. So in many ways the bombing and the ridiculous and irresponsible declaration by ARF and government high officials fits the image of Armenia perfectly.
I am very proud that ARF structures in Armenia and diaspora corrected the error of some of their members, Artsvik Minassyan's to be specific ( with his incredible uttering that the bombing was "perfectly normal act").
And by the way it is true that in general there is more tolerance in Turkey than Armenia for gays and lesbians. Those who consider this statement as an insult to Armenia and that nothing in Turkey can be better than Armenia…..and continue with their gay-bashing must seriously check their mental stabilities with a good psychologist.
Bombing of the bar? There's a difference between a firebomb and a bomb. A little clarity goes a long way.

Let the ARF RISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Without the ARF you ARMENIANS WOULD BE SITTING IN Modern day Armenia not knowing your An Armenian… Armenian revolutionary Federation=Birth of the Modern Armenia-ARF for Armenia, With Armenia and willing to sacrafice itselfs for Armenia Know this or don't The ARF died for US to continue your works and this is what we get????? Shame on you Armenians Against the ARF No other political group in Armenia is as Sacrificing as the ARF
Peter Megerdumian says:
Why don't these gay activists protest the murder of homosexuals in Azerbaijan , Turkey and Central Asian countries , Saudi Arabia and other right wing Islamofacist countries. Now that is what they need to focus on instead of attacking Armenian politicians. What was done was not right but the crimes committed by the Islamofacists must be exposed first.
Avetis says:
One day this will be recognized as the day when the ARF died.
No, I don't believe that, more like the day it came into the modern world, and came out of the 19th century closet
arziv says:
This is a storm in a tea cup. Political mind games; an attempt to stain the ARF reputation by linking it to violence.
This LBG incident would not have taken place if in the first place such a club would have been granted no licence to operate. The government does one thing, the people does another or feels another. This is sickening in the sense that there is a falso impression that Armenia must be a carbon copy of contemporary decadent societies in the West. If the West tolerates gay clubs, Armenia must also have them, if the West tolerates pedophilia, Armenia must also do the same; if the West follows politics and practices of an antinational nature, Armenia must also do the same. In other words Armenia should be like monkey see monkey do ? No one is defending the violence against the club, it is to be condemned for the violence per se. But one needs to be reminded that democracy has also its limits, and thiese limits are exceeded when contrarian attitudes become adopted against the accepted social norms of a society.
Who in the west tolerates pedophilia, other than those who prey on children…so just because the west has soap operas on television Armenia must have it, just because the world has environment polluting range rovers so should Armenia? Think before you speak, and look around you. You are probably sitting next to, dining next to, drinking next to, working next to someone who is gay…it's not something that happened when the soviet union collapsed.
So according to you gays and pedophilia are interchangeable notions. Reality proves otherwise my dear arziv. All those "respectable' individuals, be it a school principal, daycare workers and in regular households in Armenia, and elsewhere, have been heterosexual individuals with their own families, unknown to ordinary citizens the monsters that they are. They are serving jail terms right now in Armenia.
The ignorance and the intolerance that stems from it is truly mind-bogling. Any ignorant society is a doomed society. The world has indeed trying to deal with this ignorance and yes Armenia should follow others, for the sake of making Armenia a livable place for every citizen, with equal rights.
Albert Nercessian says:
There is a report that the Armenian village of Dovegh was recently attacked by machine gun fire on a kindergarden and an ambulance. We should be concerned about this and we would be protesting this. We should pressure the Armenian governement to launch a formal protest on this war crime in the UN and Council of Europe instead of wasting time on this issue.
http://www.armenianow.com/commentary/analysis/37644/armenian_azerbaijan_frontine_dovegh_village
As a modern nation, Armenia needs to balance it's protection and protestations, and deal with many issues at the same time, not ignore one over the other.
Դրօ says:
Speaking of the Turks, they've been awfully quiet lately.
Armanen says:
I now consider the ARF to be a nationalist party only on paper. They have turned their backs on Armenian traditionalism, and are totally out of touch with Armenians in the Homeland.
Hagop D says:
Very well said, I agree. The supposed "ARF" is now a "politically correct" tree-hugging organization, at least in the US. What kind of Tashnag establishment would lower itself and even mention the likes of the Kardashians in their official publications? Our revolutionaries are turning over in their graves.
I suspect this attack was done by someone trying to discredit the ARF .
Well said, Rubin.
Media throws a bone in front of its viewers and they quickly seize the opportunity to take a bite.
I know this course of action is highly intolerable but the media needs to use proper adjectives when describing events instead of altering and using fictitious wording.


As many people know winter is our slower season at The Croff House. While it means we don't have the abundance of guests that we normally welcome during the rest of the year it doesn't mean that our work stops. On the contrary we do our best to complete those projects we normally would address during the rest of the year but which would otherwise disturb our guests. One such project is the repairing, refinishing and recarpeting of the main staircase.
The repairing involves shoring up each stair tread to reduce the old house "creaking" as guests walk up and down the stairs. This sound has become more prominent over the last few years and, while the sound maybe somewhat charming, we don't want it to create too much noise. Once repaired the stairs may make some sound but dramatically less. Additionally the repairs will also address the "give" on some of the treads, making the stairs more sturdy.
The refinishing involves the sanding, stripping and staining of the treads and the painting of the risers (the front portion of each step). The refinished treads (the top of each step) will be stained to match the floors and the risers will be painted black to match the underside staircase wall.
We aren't sure when the stair carpeting was installed but the pile is crushed and there are various and sundry minor stains (including "oops" during the painting of the inn). So it's time to replace it. Working with a local carpeting store we've selected a burgundy runner that both contrast nicely with the new finish on the staircase and work well with the existing color scheme of the hallways.
The project should be completed by the end of February and will hopefully create a wonderful first impression for our guests.


Christopher Carelli: Has Chris Capuano thrown his last pitch for Yankees?
Has Chris Capuano thrown his last pitch for Yankees?
The New York Yankees felt they needed veteran depth for the rotation during the offseason and signed Chris Capuano to a one-year, $5 million contract to fit the role. Capuano supplied the Yankees with some decent innings in 2014, but at the time of the signing I felt this was an unnecessary deal. After putting up a 6.97 ERA this season, maybe it's time the Yankees felt the same way.
The need for Capuano with Adam Warren, Bryan Mitchell and others in the system seemed like a move that didn't need to be made, but for the Yankees, $5 million is a splash in the bucket. It's hard to get too riled up when it's not my money, but Capuano on the mound causes more than just bad results for the team. He's taking a roster spot; one which could go to a pitcher who could grow with time on the major league roster. And more importantly, be better.
Capuano could not get out of the first inning of what turned out to be a Yankees' rout Tuesday night. In two-thirds of an inning, Capuano walked five batters, allowed three hits and five earned runs. He was rescued by the offense, which put up three touchdowns (PATs included) and a no-hit combination of Diego Moreno and Warren for the remainder eight and one-third innings.
To go along with Capuano's bloated ERA, he is now 0-4 with a 1.77 WHIP in 31 innings pitched. Capuano owns an ERA- of 174 (100 is average) and has an fWAR of -0.1 per FanGraphs.
Capuano has two jobs; keep games from getting completely out of hand in long relief and make a spot start here and there which should also result in keeping the team close in a few innings of work. He's been unable to do either. In his previous appearance to the disastrous start Tuesday, Capuano allowed four earned runs in one inning of relief.
This is simply not working out and the Yankees must come to the realization that one of their minor leaguers (please not Esmil Rogers) should occupy the role. Moreno was great, but he'll likely get sent down for a fresh arm Wednesday. Mitchell was pitching well out of the pen before the Yanks shifted him back to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre so he remains an option. Or maybe the Yankees finally bite the bullet by adding a starter via trade and shifting CC Sabathia to the bullpen.
Whatever way it works out, Capuano can no longer be relied on to do anything, not even give some innings. It's time to admit the signing did not work out and move on.

How Do You Know If A Dinosaur Was Male Or Female? Scientists Say It's Not So Easy

Spotting the difference between and male and female dinosaur specimens has long been a source of confusion for palaeontologists, and with good reason. New research published in the journal PeerJ claims that previous guestimates about the sex of recovered specimens are likely inaccurate, owing to how poorly the fossil record preserves the key indicators of sex in extant species. Researchers, led by the Queen Mary University of London, looked at the skeletons of modern-day gharials to see what indicators can be gleaned from the fossil record when trying to sex a specimen, and found the results were slim pickings.
Gharials, sometimes known as gavials, are an endangered group of Asian giant crocodilians that demonstrate sexual dimorphism as the males are larger than the females and have a fleshy growth at the end of their snouts known as a ghara. The ghara is made up of soft tissue, meaning it's not preserved in the fossil record, but it is supported by a bony hollow called the narial fossa that can be seen in their skulls post-mortem.
The research team studied 106 gharial specimens gathered from museum collections across the world to see if they could reliably identify the males from the females in this sexually dimorphic species. They found that, without the narial fossa, it was extremely difficult to identify which skeletons were male and which were female despite their known difference in size.
Skulls of a male (top) and female (bottom) gharial (Gavialis gangeticus). Larry Witmer, Ohio University
Dr David Hone, Senior Lecturer in Zoology at Queen Mary University of London and lead author of the study, said in a statement, "Like dinosaurs, gharials are large, slow-growing reptiles that lay eggs, which makes them a good model for studying extinct dinosaur species. Our research shows that even with prior knowledge of the sex of the specimen, it can still be difficult to tell male and female gharials apart. With most dinosaurs, we don't have anywhere near that size of the dataset used for this study, and we don't know the sex of the animals, so we'd expect this task to be much harder."
What Is Bloodstone Crystal?
While many extant animals exhibit sexual dimorphism, which is obvious in a living specimen, most of these features wouldn't be preserved in the fossil record, such as vibrant plumage. The researchers hypothesize that indicators of sex within dinosaurs may have been similarly dependent on the preservation of soft tissues, feathers, or keratinized features like horns meaning identifying male and female specimens from the fossil record alone is likely highly inaccurate.
"Our study suggests that unless the differences between the dinosaurs are really striking, or there is a clear feature like the fossa, we will struggle to tell a male and female dinosaur apart using our existing dinosaur skeletons," Dr Hone said. "Many years ago, a scientific paper suggested that female T. rexes are bigger than males. However, this was based on records from 25 broken specimens and our results show this level of data just isn't good enough to be able to make this conclusion."

"Foolproof Formula to Creating Positive Change"
 Are you frustrated, weary and overwhelmed trying to control SOMEONE or SOMETHING? Are you doubtful, disappointed and unable to take it anymore?
In two short and simple steps you can relieve your stress, cast your burdens on the Lord and wait for Him to help you and take care of all your needs.
When we attempt to be in control, we needlessly exhaust our physical, mental and emotional energy. We try to make things happen our way because we believe we know best. Unfortunately, we are sometimes wrong; unable to see the beginning from the end; and not as wise as God.
Every day we have a choice to follow what we naturally see or what we spiritually know and believe. It's time to walk in God's divine plan and purpose for our lives; embracing the positive winds of change that comes with trusting God.
There is no need that Jesus can't meet; He is the one who washed the disciple's feet. He came to serve, heal the sick and blind; He forgives our sins, cleanses our hearts and renews our minds! His name is Jesus; He is my everything! He is my Savior, Healer, Prince of Peace and The King of Kings!
If I am sick, He is my Healer….. If I am in debt, He can prosper me.... If I am weak, He is my Strength... If I am confused, He is my Counselor.....If I am addicted, He is my Freedom..... When I sin, He is Forgiveness!
No one ever said trusting Jesus was easy; but it is worth it.

Joe Harris takes 3-point crown, Smith flames out in dunk contest
By Marc Berman
February 16, 2019 | 9:55pm
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Another boon for the best basketball team in New York.
Before Knicks point guard Dennis Smith Jr. lost in the Slam-Dunk contest, Nets sharpshooter Joe Harris outdueled Stephen Curry in the final round to become the first Net to ever win Saturday's All-Star Weekend 3-point shooting contest.
In the championship round, Harris, in his fifth season after taking a roller-coaster ride to a solid role on the Nets, scored a 27, hitting his final seven 3-balls at the stunned Spectrum Center.
Meanwhile, Curry, the hometown kid out of nearby Davidson College whose father starred for Charlotte, got cold down the stretch after sinking his first nine attempts.
Smith made the finals of the dunk contest but lost out to Queens product Hamidou Diallo, missing 9 of 10 dunk attempts in the final round. Smith scored two perfect 50 dunks, including using his famous rapper friend J. Cole to toss a lob. He also used Curry and Dwyane Wade as props.
But in the end, Diallo was better, jumping over Shaquille O'Neal for one beauty and then another rapper Quavo to defeat a tiring Smith.
On the first dunk of the final round, Smith failed badly at a 360, between the legs. He missed all five attempts, essentially costing him the title.
"I wanted to win it yeah – disappointed,'' Smith told The Post. "I couldn't get control of the ball. It kept slipping out of my hand.''
Harris, who beat out a nine-man field, was more impressive than Smith. Harris called Curry's erratic finale at the end "a stroke of luck'' for him.
"It's incredible,'' Harris said. "Steph is the best 3-point shooter of all time. Again, shooting off the rack for a minute is not indicative of being a better shooter than Curry. I don't want anybody to get it twisted. He's won this thing. He's participated a number of times. For me to come in my first time and to win, it's a surreal experience.''
It's also indicative of the Nets' rise into a playoff spot as sixth seed while their geographical rival is the sad sack of the league.
Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell will participate in the main event and was on hand cheering on his relatively anonymous role-playing teammate. They chatted before the final round.
"He just dabbed me and said he had my back,'' Harris said. "He was probably the only one over there who thought I was going to win. He's the point guard leader of our team and I rely on him a lot to get shots in a game. It was nice for him to see me stand still and shoot off a rack.''
Regarding his rise this season, Harris said, "Some guys take longer than others.''

Google Nexus 6P | ..::Telefonosandroid::..
Google's Nexus phones multifariously are reference devices for developers, reasonable humanoid smartphones for the plenty (well, the tiny plenty within the U.S. World Health Organization get unbarred phones), aspirational, pocketably little and then huge that the code name for the Nexus half dozen was Shamu. For late 2015, Google launched 2 new Nexus smartphones: the Nexus 5X by LG that we have a tendency to recently reviewed and therefore the larger and costlier Nexus 6P created by Huawei.
The 6P may be a flagship with a giant five.7″ AMOLED show, high of the road flower 810 and aluminium unibody construction whose beginning worth is nearer to midrange. The thirty two gig Nexus 6P is $499, and every storage increment adds $50. The phone is accessible in matte black, aluminium and white (all anodized aluminum). each the Nexus 5X and 6P square measure unbarred to be used on any carrier and that they support each GSM and CDMA with LTE 4G, which suggests they will work on Sprint and Verizon likewise as AT&T and T-Mobile. As per usual with Nexus devices, the 6P runs a clean build of humanoid with no custom UIs or another apps. It's prepared for development, unlocking the bootloader and custom ROMs.
This is an outsized phone–it's as huge because the iPhone 6s and, Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ and LG V10. this is not a cuddlesome very little phone that is meant for petite hands and little pockets. That said, it's very slim and lightweight for its size at half dozen.27 ounces. The slim style and straight edges create it straightforward to carry (assuming medium to giant hands) and it isn't drop prone just like the incurved facet iPhone 6s and. The half dozenP feels smaller and is a smaller amount of some than the Nexus 6. it is the classiest trying Nexus nonetheless due to the chamfered edges, metal casing and overall smart vogue. the sole dissatisfaction is that the giant black pongid Glass four window that runs across the rear, housing the rear camera, IR optical device window and antennas. The phone slopes a small bit up thereto raised glass space, and it's unquiet, albeit distinctive. there is conjointly atiny low cap at rock bottom that is plastic (painted to match the metal close it), and it provides a window for a lot of antennas. Overall i prefer the design of the phone, and it's as as pricy because the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note five.
The front holds a rare treat: front facing stereo speakers. As you would possibly guess, they sound far better than the typical mobile phone speaker, however they don't seem to be quite as full and wealthy as HTC's BoomSound speakers.


Rich with promise: one of teNeues's most successful and revered artists uncovers an inimitable tourist destination for international travelers. Nature photographer Michael Poliza has already published nearly a dozen books—including bestsellers like Africa, Eyes Over Africa, and AntArctic—and as an organizer of high-end nature adventure treks, he has a particularly keen sense for unique locations. For his latest tome, he focused on a place of legendary beauty that brims unexpected surprises: Mallorca. It's no wonder that Mallorca has certain qualities in common with tapas, the island's culinary specialty. The great thing about tapas is that you don't have to make a meal out of just one ingredient; you can taste a bit of this and have a nibble of that and enjoy a broad spectrum of flavors. And that is the perfect way to describe the vacation mecca of Mallorca, which boasts an attractive mix of old and modern architecture, lively beaches and secluded bays, and the vibrant city of Palma and quaint mountain villages. On the ground or from the air, Michael Poliza paints an intimate picture of Mallorca and its most exciting locales—the salt mounds of Es Trenc, Cala sa Nau, the Cap de Formentor lighthouse, and the serpentine road to Sa Calobra—and fulfills his promise magnificently.
MICHAEL POLIZA is a man who is used to reinventing himself: he went from actor to entrepreneur to professional photographer to expedition leader to travel designer and head of the companies Michael Poliza Experiences and Michael Poliza Private Travel. He has received many awards for his photographs, including a 2008 International Photography Award. His book Eyes over Africa won the German Photo Book Prize. His most recent book, The World's Most Magical Wilderness Escapes, was published by teNeues in 2015.
