YouTube automatic captioning
(Via Slashdot):
PCMAG.COM is reporting that YouTube has just released their automatic captioning system for public use:
The technology still isn't perfect, but Google is also using YouTube, with its vast array of accents, languages, background noise, and other distractions to improve its technology.
But the closed-captioning also means that millions of users who are hard of hearing, deaf, or simply speak another language as their primary language can now have a greater access to YouTube videos, the company said. "A core part of YouTube's DNA is access to content," said Hunter Walk, the product team lead for YouTube. "From day one, that's what we were hoping to do with video."
It's worth noting that as well as opening up information access for "hard of hearing, deaf, or [non-English speakers]", it's also another example of Google making the world more and more machine-readable. Google Books is another massive-scale example of this.
Edit: After requesting automatic transcription of one of my YouTube videos yesterday (which features pretty clear spoken English), I've received a "Transcription Failed" message today. No option to retry or suggestions why. I.e. this tech might not be so fantastically world-changing yet.

Hilton introduces Bernic, expands Tapestry brand in New York
Published on : Thursday, December 27, 2018
Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. has been constantly focusing on unit growth as a major growth strategy.
The company has announced the opening of The Bernic Hotel New York City by Tapestry Collection. Representing the first Tapestry Collection property in New York City, the hotel is located in close proximity to the Grand Central Station and Rockefeller Center.
During May 2018, Hilton had announced that two of its marketing leading brand, namely Curio Collection and Tapestry Collection is expected to boost its portfolio with as many as seven hotels in the United States. Already having six hotels under Tapestry collection, the company further plans to enhance the portfolio of this brand by adding three more hotels.
The shares of Hilton have rallied 30.2% in the past year, outperforming the industry's growth of 13.3%.
The move underscores Hilton's absolute focus on aggressively expanding its brands in both the domestic and international markets. With an aim to maintain its position as the fastest-growing global hospitality company, Hilton is continuously driving unit growth. In 2017, Hilton had witnessed net unit growth of 18,400 rooms. Further, the company expanded its footprint across new countries for a total of 105 countries and territories. For 2018, it projects an approximate 6.5% net unit growth.
Hilton's relentless expansion helps it in strategizing against growing competition in the industry.
The company is continuously facing intense competition from large hotel chains like Marriott and Hyatt, and also from new channels of distribution in the travel industry. Additional sources of competition include large companies that offer online travel services as part of their business model such as Alibaba.
Hilton, therefore, through its disciplined as well as strategic operations, and expansion is trying to navigate stiff competition.

You obviously do a reasonable mileage,which is a bit surprising.
Never had any issue with my 2015 model in 37000 miles.
I imagine it would be to prevent sticking calipers. I used to drive a Prius as a taxi, and it was a very common problem. Every Prius that I knew of suffered from it, especially those that were rented. It didn't help having them washed often, the jetwash blasting the brakes a couple of times a week. The problem was solved by stripping, cleaning and greasing them every other oil change, ie twice a year. The Prius specialist I used would do this very quickly whist you waited.
He has pre built bearings and suspension units on the shelf. If you pre booked, a front wheel bearing was done in 25 minutes, the whole hub being replaced. The worn hub was then rebuilt and put on the shelf. He obviously charged his labour for the whole job, not just the 25 minutes! He's brilliant, saving drivers being off the road for long periods.
No I don't do many miles, the GS as done less than 14000 in two years, that is possibly why the brakes were cleaned and greased.
I imagine it would be to prevent sticking calipers.
I'd agree expect the series IV GS doesn't have a sliding calliper design, it uses a 4 pot design that doesn't suffer from that issue.

Junior Wright Steps Up To Face Micki Nielsen
By Jake Donovan
Published Thu Apr 02, 2015, 08:18 AM EDT
Micki Nielsen's next fight was supposed to be the latest in a step up in class—however subtle the progression–as he looks to make his mark on the cruiserweight division.
With originally scheduled opponent Felix Cora Jr. withdrawing, the May 2 headliner in Copenhagen, Denmark will now feature a showdown between unbeaten cruiserweights. Nielsen remains atop the bill, as he faces American prospect Junior Wright, who as of Thursday morning has formally accepted the fight.
The upgrade in competition doesn't seem to faze the local favorite, in fact insisting that he welcomes the challenge.
"It doesn't matter who is put in front of me," Nielsen (17-0, 12KOs) suggests. "No one is taking this (regional) title away from me. I'm ready and willing to fight anyone. Line them up and I will knock them out!
"Like me, Wright is undefeated but unlike me he will taste defeat on May 2. He's a good boxer and I'm sure he will come to fight, but there's only going to be one outcome - my hand will be raised and the belt will remain round my waist."
Nielsen is coming off of 10-round decision wins in each of his past two starts. The most recent took place in February, outpointing Brazil's Julio Cesar dos Santos in a virtual shutout in Denmark, where all but three career bouts have taken place to date.
Wright (13-0-1, 11KOs) travels abroad for the first time in his young career. The 28-year old has fought predominantly in the Midwestern United States—strategically marketed and developed near his hometown of Evanston, Illinois—along with a few appearances in New York on shows presented by Dmitriy Salita's Star of David Promotions, who inked Wright to a deal last summer.
"Junior just had an impressive KO win over Rayford Johnson, Jan 22nd on the Brooklyn Brawl Series in NYC. He is one of the best cruiserweights in the world," insists Salita. "He has proved it inside the ring be being successful against top undefeated prospects through out his career."
The upcoming road trip and challenge versus Nielsen represents a step far outside his comfort zone, but all parties involved are confident that the motivation from both fighters to remain unbeaten and make their mark in the cruiserweight division should make for a mouthwatering main event.
"There are going to be fireworks in Frederiksberg," promises Nisse Sauerland, Nielsen's promoter. "Micki and Junior are two young, hungry fighters, both undefeated, both big punchers and both gunning for a world title shot. This fight has all the ingredients of a real barnstormer. It is definitely not one to be missed."
Wright's side sees it th same as its promotional counterpart—although obviously envisioning a different ending.
"Micki is a talented accomplished fighter I think this will be a very exciting fight as long as it lasts," believs Salita. "Junior wants to be the one to bring the cruiserweight title and glory back to the U.S."

Is the CD Finally Dead? Sony Closes Its Huge Plant
Published Jan 21, 2011 at 10:03 AM | Updated at 10:15 AM PST on Jan 21, 2011
In the biggest sign yet that the good old CD is finally on its way out, Sony has announced that it plans to shutter its huge Pitman, NJ CD manufacturing plant on March 18.
This leaves Sony with just one remaining US CD plant in Terre Haute IN, down from a total of three a few years ago. The Pitman plant laid off 160 workers last year when the DVD and Blu-ray lines were shut down, and the plant closing will result in another 300 layoffs.
The Pitman plant was opened in 1960 to manufacture LP records for Columbia, and at its peak the facility could make more the 200 million CDs per year.
Sony blames the ailing economy, and falling interest in physical media for the closing. Employees interviewed by CNET stopped short of blaming illegal downloading, but admit that it's at least a part of the problem. One employee said he knew they were in trouble when they stopped putting CD players in some cars.
What do you think? Is illegal downloading to blame, or is it the fact that you can fit a huge music collection on a tiny iPod?

Players Take The Knee To Support One Another – Gareth Southgate
Sports By David F. Jun 3, 2021 No Comments2 Mins Read
England coach, Gareth Southgate has come out to say that he feels fans do not understand the message behind players taking a knee. He recently revealed this after the gesture was booed ahead of the friendly win over Austria.
Gareth Southgate
According to him, it seems some football fans believe taking the knee is a political stand that not everyone will agree with, but that is not the case.
He added that players simply take the knee to support one another, and he was happy that the booing was drowned out by the majority of the crowd.
His words, "I did hear it,"
"It's not something on behalf of our black players that I wanted to hear because it feels as though it is a criticism of them."

"I think we have got a situation where some people seem to think it is a political stand that they don't agree with."
"That's not the reason the players are doing it. We are supporting each other."
"I was pleased that was drowned out by the majority of the crowd but we can't deny the fact that it happened,"
"I think the most important thing for our players to know is that all their team-mates, all the staff are fully supportive."
"I think the majority of people understand it, some people aren't quite understanding the message and I suppose we are seeing that across a number of football grounds at the moment."

McDonagh shedded his no-contact sweater and was a full participant in Friday's practice and could make his debut vs. the Canadiens this afternoon. Because of the early start there will be no morning skate, so expect head coach Jon Cooper to update McDonagh's status around 11 p.m. ET.

McDonagh (upper-body) should make his Lightning debut next week.
McDonagh was acquired in a blockbuster trade on Monday, but has been sidelined since February 7th and will miss at least the next three games. Monitor his status heading into next Tuesday's game vs. the Panthers.
The Lightning have acquired Ryan McDonagh and J.T. Miller from the Rangers for Vladislav Namestnikov, Libor Hajek, Brett Howden, 2018 1st Round Pick and a conditional 2nd Round Pick.
McDonagh has missed the last nine games with an upper-body injury but is expected to be back in the near future. His 50th game of the season will come in a Lightning uniform, but his fantasy value may actually take a hit because he will probably see less minutes behind Victor Hedman. McDonagh boosts the Lightning's blueline a lot and make them and solidify them as Stanley Cup favourites.

McDonagh was back on the Rangers second power-play unit this morning, so look for him to replace with Brendan Smith or Steve Kampfer in the lineup tonight. McDonagh is still searching for his first goal of the season, but is tied for 10th among defensemen in assists (19).

MELBOURNE resident Colin Boyd is urging men to ditch their razors and shavers for a month and grow a beard to help beat bowel cancer.
Colin, 64, from the Melbourne suburb of Box Hill, was diagnosed with bowel cancer three years ago and is now on a mission help eradicate the disease.
"I've worn many hats working in industries from petroleum and energy, to insurance and education and farming," he said.
"Now I continue another endeavour, to help us better understand a disease of many forms: to rid us all of bowel cancer.
Colin will join thousands of men around Australia for this fun hair-raising fundraiser throughout December which encourages men to grow a beard or take a Beard Challenge to raise money for Bowel Cancer Australia.
Bowel cancer is Australia's second deadliest cancer, affecting around one in 11 men in their lifetime, yet it remains largely unspoken about.
"That's why we've dedicated December to raising much-needed awareness and funds to address bowel cancer in men," Bowel Cancer Australia's Claire Annear said.
The Decembeard campaign features photos of people who have been affected by bowel cancer, including Colin, and their loved ones.
The images were taken by photographer Matt Korinek who lost his mum to the disease.
"By using photographs of real people and sharing their stories, we hope people who come across the Decembeard campaign will stop and realise, 'That could be me, my husband, my brother, my dad'," Ms Annear said.
"Anyone can get involved and there are no complicated rules.
More than 8000 Australian men are diagnosed with bowel cancer each year, with the risk increasing every year from age 50.
About 55 per cent of all Australians diagnosed with bowel cancer are men.

Waters Introduces Groundbreaking Legislation to Shut Down Abusive Megabanks Like Wells Fargo
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Print this Page Share by Email
Washington, DC, October 4, 2017
Following her release of a Democratic staff report titled "The Case for Holding Megabanks Accountable: An Examination of Wells Fargo's Egregious Consumer Abuses," Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-CA), Ranking Member of the House Committee on Financial Services, introduced groundbreaking legislation that would hold megabanks like Wells Fargo accountable when they exhibit a pattern of abusive behavior towards hardworking American consumers.
"Rampant violations of consumer protections by megabanks are just as consequential to a megabank's safety and soundness as capital levels or other indicators of bank health," said Ranking Member Waters. "This is why my bill, the Megabank Accountability and Consequences Act, will require federal prudential banking regulators to fully exercise their authorities and shut down megabanks that repeatedly show indifference toward consumer protection. It's time to hold these financial institutions accountable and put people over profits."
The Megabank Accountability and Consequences Act requires federal prudential banking regulators, such as the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Federal Reserve Board, to fully utilize their authorities to shut down megabanks that repeatedly harm consumers and hold culpable executives accountable.
Original cosponsors of the Megabank Accountability and Consequences Act are Representatives Michael Capuano (D-MA), Al Green (D-TX), Keith Ellison (D-MN), Marcy Kaptur (D-OH), John Sarbanes (D-MD), Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), Jamie Raskin (D-MD), and Jan Schakowsky (D-IL).
The bill is also supported by Americans for Financial Reform, AFL-CIO, National Consumer Law Center (on behalf of its low income clients), PIRG, Public Citizen, and Rootstrikers.

I certainly wasn't expecting to reap the benefits of two children at, what is it? Ten weeks? (How can it be only ten weeks?) But Julia loves Claire so much, it's nuts. Jeremy dragged the bouncy chair down from the attic, so these days Julia spends her mornings watching Claire eat her breakfast. If Claire goes out of sight, Jules makes heartbroken complaints. When she's turned towards her sister, she coos and gurgles adoringly.
Claire is taking the hero-worship in her stride.

AMANDA ELLIS: Good morning, everyone. Welcome to today's NASCAR teleconference. We are joined by Kasey Kahne, driver of the No. 5 Farmers Insurance Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports. Kahne won last week's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway and currently sits seventh in the championship standings. He has one victory at Auto Club Speedway, the site of this weekend's Auto Club 400. Kasey, last year at this point you were 32nd in the standings and ended up finishing with your career best points finish. Now you have one victory and are seventh in points after four races. What does a strong start to the season mean to your championship hopes for 2013?
KASEY KAHNE: Well, yeah, the championship is still a long ways away, but I think a good start. Just off to a much better start than last year. Feel good about that. We got a little behind at the start of the season and fought back clearly in the last two weeks and got back to a good spot. So I feel good about where we're at, feel good about the speed of our car and our team, and that's what it's all about is just being on the right page, same page with all the guys. Right now we're really working well together and enjoying it, and we have some momentum and confidence after Bristol and really looking forward to Fontana.
I've always enjoyed racing there, and I think this new car is going to create a better race at that track, a more aggressive race. As slippery as Auto Club is, it's just going to make it even a little better for us.
Q. I wanted to ask you about you and Kenny, and if you could kind of pick a couple of reasons why you feel like you two work so well together. Are you similar personalities? Is it just a comfort level you have now? And the second part of the question is when did you know that you two were going to stick together throughout all of the changes with teams and manufacturers and all of that?
KASEY KAHNE: Yeah, all right. I would say probably our personalities as far as neither one of us like talk a lot if we don't need to. We kind of just ‑‑ we talk when we feel like we need to and we're usually on the same page I think because of that.
Between that, work ethic, he's nonstop trying to figure out how to make his race cars faster, and I try to do everything I can to know about the car and also physically and mentally I'm as prepared as I can be. So I think we're just ‑‑ we see what each other does and really like it, and the communication is there, which is a big part of what we do, being able to communicate with someone and understand and being on the same page more often than not. So that's key for us.
And as far as going through all the different teams and different ‑‑ man, we've had some things thrown at us over the years, and we've just always stuck together. At the end of each year we've talked, and sometimes he'd be like, man, do you want me to still be your crew chief or do you want this or what are you thinking, and I mean, we were just always kind of up front with each other, and it was just easy to say that I don't want anybody different for myself. I feel like he's given me more opportunities to win in the situations we've been in than anybody else ever would have. I just have a lot of respect for Kenny Francis.
Q. How far along do you feel like you understand this new car after a month of racing it?
KASEY KAHNE: I feel like I understand it pretty well, between the testing last year and ‑‑ you know, to me the only thing that threw me off this year was Phoenix, and that was ‑‑ to me it was the tire. I mean, it was such a different tire than what we had raced there before, than what we had raced on before, and so it kind of threw me off, the feel and everything that we were looking for.
We were still decent early in the race but fell apart the last half of the race, and I would say that threw me off. I don't think the car did. Other than that, I think the cars really reacted just how I expected it to at these other racetracks, and it's been a good thing, and that's why I think Fontana is going to be a solid race, better than what it's been before, because of the grip, entry at the corner that we have now, and I think Fontana you're usually off the gas for so long just waiting for your car to do something, and I think with the car this year we should be able to be a lot more aggressive and really push harder than what we have before.
Q. A lot of times you're going to be testing this car obviously throughout the year with the number of tests that you get. Is there any danger to being so good so early in the sense of maybe you won't try ‑‑ you won't just be throwing things at it to try and may not learn maybe as much as some other teams might be who are struggling?
KASEY KAHNE: Yeah, I think there's different ways to look at that. I think our stuff is handling really well early in the season, so that's a ‑‑ just a huge effort by Hendrick Motorsports. That opens, do we test early in the year, do we wait closer to the Chase and try to learn some things when that time of the season comes along, and I think it just leaves it up to us. It gives us a we can do it when we want, when the crew chiefs think it's the right time to test and prepare better at these tracks that we're going to, and so I think by starting off strong it just gives us all a little bit more time to figure all this stuff out, which I think is a good thing.
Q. Although you didn't get the results you wanted those first couple races, you've had really good cars in every race this year. Did you kind of reach a point of frustration there early when you didn't get the finishes or was that pretty easy to move through?
KASEY KAHNE: The Daytona one was kind of tough on me. I've never had a car that fast at Daytona, at any race at Daytona, and especially the Daytona 500. That was tough to figure that out and understand how I ended up crashing when we were running single file around the top just kind of waiting because that's all you could do with that package is you just kind of wait until later on to race.
So yeah, I was discouraged with that one, and it took me a couple days to get over it.
Phoenix we just missed it a little bit. I missed it probably with some of my feedback on the car, and we just didn't get it done at Phoenix. So that one wasn't as bad because we just ‑‑ I think that was ‑‑ we worked hard and just didn't hit on it, and then in the last two weeks we've been fast and have stepped up and finished the deal both weeks and been right there going for the win.
Q. You mentioned a few months ago about the tires at Phoenix and we're hearing a lot of talk about tires this year and the new car. Is that a situation where once you're on the track for the first time you can actually sort of feel the difference when the tire is different, or is it just coming in the lap times and that sort of thing?
that's the California tire, no wonder. And I had no clue it was the California tire, but I felt like I was at California.
So to me tires are such a huge part of what ‑‑ such a huge part of the race car and how it goes around the corner. There's so much that goes into the tires, and Goodyear just ‑‑ they have a huge ‑‑ to me a huge responsibility to make sure that we're racing on the best tires we can, the safest tires, the best tires to create great side‑by‑side racing. I know they work really hard at it, but they have a big responsibility that they take on to have the tire for NASCAR. It's very meaningful.
Q. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it seemed like whenever we had a caution, then we got the green flag on a restart, your car did not come out of the hole fast. It seemed like it took a couple of laps before the car was full of racing power. Did you feel that way or was it something that you were doing?
KASEY KAHNE: Yeah, no, I felt that way. I thought my restarts weren't too bad, getting down the front stretch. I've been working really hard on that to get them better. And I felt like the majority of the restarts throughout the race I could come out in second or first if I was leading off of Turn 2. But for the next six to 10 laps I would struggle to go as fast as probably the three to four cars around me and either get past or kind of hold my position but the leader would slowly getaway maybe a half straightaway or so. And then after 10 laps my car would come in and it was like that the entire race, every run it didn't that except on two tires it didn't do that.
So I was kind of confused by that, but we've done that before. There's been plenty of tracks over the years that for whatever reason, the way I kind of like the feel of the car or something, it doesn't necessarily take off as good as some of the other guys the first 5 or 10 laps. Even at Vegas for 10 laps, 5 to 10 laps, I couldn't really go fast quite as fast as some of the guys, and instantly, whether it was Kyle Busch or Jimmie Johnson or whoever it was, I'd reel them in, drive by them and drive away, and I felt like that was very similar to Bristol. It must just be something that I do or something that I look for in the feel of the car.
Q. Your consistency seems to be on the upswing. Do you believe in momentum, and what do good results do most for your team?
KASEY KAHNE: Yeah, I definitely believe in momentum. I know I've tried to work hard over the years to get more consistent because that was definitely my weak spot since I've been in the Sprint Cup Series. Yeah, I feel really good about where we're at right now, and the momentum is huge. Confidence, momentum, from the driver to the pit crew to the crew chief, I mean, every aspect of putting our car on the track, I think when you have momentum and confidence it helps. I've been in situations before where I've felt like everything was fine, like I wasn't ‑‑ like I was driving every bit as hard as I usually do and all that, and then I won a race and realized, man, now I'm like rejuvenated and have a boost of energy again to race and things.
So I think it definitely helps, and sometimes you don't realize it, but when you are on the upswing and things are going well, everybody feels it, and it's a big part of running well.
Q. Being back on top with the No. 5 in the Hendrick Motorsports must feel rather good. Speak a little bit about getting No. 5, which is kind of a favorite of Rick Hendrick, back in the winner's circle.
KASEY KAHNE: Yeah, it feels really good. I mean, it feels ‑‑ every day I wake up and know that I'm part of Hendrick Motorsports it feels good, and then to get a win early in the season, such a competitive series and do it in the 5 car, I was ‑‑ I was having a great week. I feel really good about it, and it's great to get those calls from Mr. H, and when he's excited and happy that we were able to pull it off and put an entire race together and win, it makes it all pretty exciting and fun. Yeah, the 5 is the car they started with, so that car needs to go to victory lane some of the time. I know the 48 visits victory lane a lot and the 24 and things, but yeah, it's nice when we can get the 5 over there, also.
Q. Coming up there's California, Fontana. What do you look forward to going to that race this coming weekend?
KASEY KAHNE: I look forward to just the really wide racetrack, the speeds will be up, you can move around usually from the white line all the way to the wall, just about run right against the wall on a big, two‑mile racetrack, and just trying to ‑‑ it's pretty technical because of the seams there where the track is paved and then it stops and then it starts another paving section, and the seams are pretty thick, they're pretty wide I guess you would say. So getting on top of those seams can be rough, just figuring out how to get the car go around all that stuff and make good laps. To me I'm really excited because I think we'll be able to drive harder than we've ever been able to drive at Fontana in a Sprint Cup car, and I'm really looking forward to that. I think it's going to be pretty exciting.
Q. I'm curious about one of your initial comments about explain the better race scenario for the fans. What do you anticipate the cars to do, packs of cars, two by two? If you would explain that for us.
KASEY KAHNE: Well, to me I feel like a lot of times at that track you go down the straightaway, and when you go to get in the corner you're so loose behind other cars and the back is slippery, or the back is tight behind ‑‑ or the front is tight behind other cars so you're kind of pushing the nose, and you have to pick a lane and really ease into the corners pretty gently, I guess.
I feel like with this car, so far this year at Bristol and in Las Vegas we've been able to really charge the corner and push a lot harder every lap of the race run, and I think it'll be the same way at Auto Club.
I just think that you're going to be able to drive it in the corner harder, make more aggressive moves getting into the corner and through the middle of the corner, and that's something that we haven't had there before. So to me it's going to create a much better race to where you'll be able to pass and make those moves a little bit easier is what I'm hoping for.
Q. You have your short track and your long track cars. Is there any kind of a lucky charm in taking the Bristol car and retrofitting it to California to just take that momentum with you to another race?
KASEY KAHNE: Well, I kind of beat that car up a little bit late in the race, made contact with a couple guys, and it won't be available this weekend.
But we raced that same car at Phoenix, and it's a really good car. The car we raced at Las Vegas was a great car, and that's what we're taking to California ‑‑ no, I don't think that's the car we're taking to California, never mind. But it's in good shape for Texas or whatever the next track will be. I think California will be a new car, which will be I'd imagine just as good as the other ones, and they've been really fast.
Q. Taking you off the track for a quick second, are you glad the race season is underway and you're not asked to do Dancing With the Stars?
KASEY KAHNE: Absolutely. I race. That's all I really want to do is race cars. I've been able to my whole life, and I enjoy it. I love every bit of it. To be able to think about racing each week, whether we're doing appearances or testing or whatever it may be during the week and then you get to go and race a Sprint Cup car on Saturday or Sunday from here until the end of November, I'm loving what's going on.
Q. No Dancing With the Stars in your future?
dance, so I don't think I'll ever go on that show. It wouldn't be a good one for me.
AMANDA ELLIS: Kasey, thank you for joining us today and best of luck this weekend in California, and thank you to all the media for joining us, as well.

Regional Cancer Care Associates LLC (RCCA), one of the largest oncology physician networks in the nation, is pleased to announce that Michael Nissenblatt, M.D. has been selected as one of 25 nationally recognized individuals to receive the American Cancer Society's St. George National Award for outstanding service to the community in support of the Society's mission to combat cancer. Recipients are chosen based on ongoing leadership, time commitment and their dedication to areas such as fundraising, mission delivery, patient support, legislative advocacy and clinical engagement. It is the highest honor given for volunteer service by the American Cancer Society.
All nominees for this award have dedicated at least six years of their time to the fight against cancer. They have all significantly contributed to advancing the Society's mission, strategic goals and programs. Since the award was conceived in 1949 by Dr. Charles S. Cameron, former American Cancer Society medical and scientific director, the St. George award has been presented annually to select volunteers nationwide.
Dr. Nissenblatt is a member of RCCA serving the Central Jersey community and beyond. He is the founder of the Michael J. Nissenblatt Partners in Healing Foundation, which is designed to help patients and their families who are simultaneously suffering from cancer and experiencing financial hardship. He and his wife, Marlene Helen, have chaired the major fundraising event for the American Cancer Society in Middlesex County for the last 16 years. Known as the Night of Wine and Roses, they have engendered excitement and have raised enormous funds over these years to sponsor national American Cancer Society projects. Dr. Nissenblatt has also founded the Challah Foundation in 1995. The Challah Foundation distributes loaves of bread called challah (commonly called the "bread of hope") every Friday to patients of all faiths and ethnicities whose common bonds are having cancer and being hospitalized at St. Peter's University Hospital and Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital. To date, they have distributed more than 160,000 loaves of challah. Dr. Nissenblatt is also a marathon runner, and for the last 7 years he has raised money for the Aubrey Fund and Fred's Team of Sloan Kettering, and was the leading fund raiser in 2012.
"Dr. Nissenblatt is a dedicated volunteer whose distinguished service has been instrumental in the fight to eradicate cancer. His efforts are a wonderful example of what RCCA physicians provide to the communities of NJ," said Andrew L. Pecora, M.D., F.A.C.P., C.P.E, President of Regional Cancer Care Associates.

Extreme drought and fire risk may double by 2060
Climate change may soon double the impact of extreme drought and fire. And it's a two-way traffic.

As climate change threatens a doubling of the impact of extreme drought and fire within a generation, researchers are uncovering the influence of human activity on both these growing risks.
One study has found that human numbers exposed to the hazard of extreme drought are likely to double in the decades to come, as global heating bakes away the groundwater and limits annual snowfall.
Another team of researchers says the risks of extreme wildfire could also rise twofold in the next 40 years in the Mediterranean, southern Africa, eastern North America and the Amazon. In those places already severely scorched by frequent fire − western North America, equatorial Africa, south-east Asia and Australia − hazards could rise by 50 per cent.
And a third, separate study warns that global temperature rise will shift the patterns of rainfall around the tropics − with the consequent risks to tropical crop harvests and to equatorial ecosystems such as rainforest and savannah.
All three studies are reminders of the intricacies of the planetary climate system and the impact of human action in the last hundred years.
An international research team reports in the journal Nature Climate Change that it looked at the simple problem of global terrestrial water storage: all the moisture in the canopies of forest trees, in the mountain snows and ice, in the lakes, rivers, wetlands, and in the soil itself.
This wealth of stored water is a big player in the patterns of global flooding and drought in the monsoon climates and the arid lands alike. But, the researchers say, there has so far been no study of the potential impact of global climate change on global terrestrial water storage overall.
So researchers from the US, China, Japan and Europe began modelling tomorrow's world. And they found that, while 3 per cent of the planet's people were vulnerable to extreme drought in the timespan from 1976 to 2005, later in the century this proportion could increase to 7 per cent or even 8 per cent.
"More and more people will suffer from extreme droughts if a medium-to-high level of global warming continues and water management is maintained in its present state," warned Yadu Pokhrel, an engineer at Michigan State University, who led the research.
"Areas of the southern hemisphere, where water scarcity is already a problem, will be disproportionately affected. We predict this increase in water scarcity will affect food security and escalate human migration and conflict."
Fire chances increased
Australia is a southern hemisphere country that knows about water scarcity: its wildfires in 2019 broke all records and sent a vast cloud of smoke to an altitude of 35 kms.
And, on the evidence of a new study in the journal Nature Communications, it won't be the last such extreme event. Californian scientists, struck by the scale and intensity of Californian wildfires in 2017 and 2018, report that they took a closer look at the way greenhouse gas emissions and human land use change have played into the risks of extreme fire weather.
The simple act of setting forests afire to clear land for farm use has amplified the risk of extreme blazes in the Amazon and North America by 30 per cent in the last century. Fires create aerosols that could, by absorbing sunlight, help cool the terrain beneath them − in some zones. But they could also affect rainfall levels and raise the chances of fire. The nature of such impacts varies from place to place.
"South-east Asia relies on the monsoon, but aerosols cause so much cooling on land that they can actually suppress a monsoon," said Danielle Touma of the University of California at Santa Barbara. "It's not just whether you have aerosols or not, it's the way the regional climate interacts with aerosols."
Aerosols − with other forces − cannot just suppress a monsoon, they can shift rain patterns permanently. The tropics, too, have begun to feel the heat of the moment.
Drought stress rises
The footprint of extreme drought and fire is massive. Californian researchers report in Nature Climate Change that, across two thirds of the globe, the tropical rainbelt is likely to shift north over eastern Africa and the Indian Ocean to cause more drought stress in south-eastern Africa and Madagascar and intensified flooding in south Asia.
In the western hemisphere, however, as the Gulf Stream current and the North Atlantic deep water formation weaken, the rain belt could move south to bring greater drought stress to Central America.
And once again, climate change driven by global heating is at work with other human influences to alter what had for most of human history been a stable pattern of climate.
"In Asia, projected reductions in aerosol emissions, glacier melting in the Himalayas and loss of snow cover in northern areas brought on by climate change will cause the atmosphere to heat up faster than in other regions," said James Randerson of the University of California, Irvine, one of the authors.
"We know the rainbelt shifts towards this heating, and that its northward movement in the eastern hemisphere is consistent with these expected impacts of climate change."
