> Just to be clear, I wasn't suggesting that the partitive is synonymous with the accusative (modulo telicity of the verb). Rather, I was suggesting that it codes both the "partitive" and "accusative" categories (so it can't apply to the demonstrative, because that would violate its partitive meaning). In cases other than the accusative, the partitive and non-partitive forms of a noun would be identical.
too. which are hardly accusative.
>>> This may seem less mysterious if we understand the "partitive" in these languages as actually being a "partitive accusative" (or "partitive core"?), and there being no partitive for any of the other cases.
>> That makes sense, especially in light of the fact that the Finnish partitive is used to mark atelic direct objects (in contrast to the accusative, which marks telic direct objects).
> Maybe, except that the noun phrase in question is marked with both the accusative *and* partitive cases. The demonstrative isn't marked with partitive. If it were purely a semantic issue, I'd expect the whole thing to be marked with partitive—unless there is no such distinction in the demonstratives.


You can always fire it again to cone 06 to be sure. But stuff won't explode when it's glazed as long as it's dry when it's fired.
When I fired a kiln like that I always started with the dials on low with the lid propped. I waited until no moisture condensing on a hand mirror held above lid. Then closed lid and started turning switches up.
I've never had a cone snap, maybe it was damaged before it went in. Maybe get some new cones to be sure they aren't all damaged?
I am trying to view all the replies to my post but I'm only seeing two, even after refreshing.

Projekt: "A childhood dream on majorca"
"A backdrop for our daughters' childhood memories"
A childhood dream on majorca
Family C.
Wood flooring Oak Smoked Elephant Skin Wide plank
A spacious factory was built under the fine Majorcan sun in 1886 - and the C. family renovates just this factory in 2017. After many years in London and New York, Aina C. was drawn back to the island to raise her two young daughters surrounded by nature, ocean, and sunshine. The old factory building of Aina's grandparents seemed just right. But the upper level has been almost untouched for nearly 130 (!) years! There was quite a bit of work to do. The old terracotta tiles were beyond saving. New flooring had to be installed.
From Parador, the family received the engineered wood flooring Oak Smoked Wide Plank. Wood is a highly unusual material for a floor in Majorca, but the family knew: It had to be engineered wood flooring. "It's hard to go back once you've had a wooden floor," laughs dad Joan. "It's so warm, and it's nice to sit on the floor." The right colour was also important: "The old-looking wood is just so stunning," says Joan. "We looked at so many samples, but this one just matches it perfectly." The red shade and the natural surface perfectly reflect the style of the building. The family clearly enjoys the new floor: "You can walk barefoot here, it feels so natural and nice!" It's clear - bright childhood memories can now be created here.
The C. family renovated the 130 year old Majorcan building from the ground up.
The family received the engineered wood flooring Oak Smoked Wide Plank from Parador - to match the old wood of the former factory.
With the patented Automatic- Click mechanism, installation is finished in no time at all.
The attic of the old building was completely renovated and now starts to shine in a new light.
The dark wood reflects the rustic and antique charm of the building.
Mom Aina tests the newly installed floor.
With a 25 year quality guarantee, the family can now securely look towards the future.
Playing with bare feet is now also possible on the warm engineered wood flooring - the wood provides a natural feeling.
The dark shade creates a contrast to the white walls while complimenting the original wood of the old building.
The individual texture of the wood creates an antique yet comfortable look.
The flooring is all-round impregnated to withstand the demands of lively families.
Each individual plank is emphasised thanks to the 4-sided grooves- this creates an installation pattern with the flair of a wood floor made from real planks.
Nature peeks in from outdoors - and the engineered oak wood flooring offers an all-natural indoors.
Joan and Aina C. in their finished home - they are now ready for furniture.
For a future full of nature, light, and sunshine in beautiful Majorca.

September 11, 2019 September 11, 2019 Dan Rodricks Dan Rodricks
A letter to the children of 9/11
Here's what I wrote for The Baltimore Sun on the one-year anniversary of the terrorist attacks. My own children were 11 and 8 at the time of 9/11, so I was thinking about them, their schoolmates, teammates and friends, a whole generation stuck with the memory of what happened on that day in 2001.
I WOULD LIKE to say something to the kids today, so you grown-ups will have to excuse me. All memories of the year past have me thinking of the future, and the future is where children live. So this is for them. Some of you kids might be reading this during the hour that exactly marks the one-year anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Most of you were in school when that happened. A lot of you were dismissed from class and sent home by midday. Remember?
It was a clear and sunny day, and you'll all live forever with the glaring contradiction of such a horrible act on such a beautiful, late-summer, back-to-school, back-to-work day. "The sky's still the same unbelievable blue, " Bruce Springsteen sings in one of the tracks on his new CD.
I have a similar memory from nearly 40 years ago — the dismissal from school on the Friday afternoon President Kennedy was killed. It was a November day, but clear and bright, and Officer Charlie Thomas, the usually jolly crossing guard, wept as he held up his arms to stop traffic in front of our school. Whenever we get to November, around Thanksgiving, I look at the silver bark of trees, washed in bright afternoon sunlight, and I think of the day Kennedy died and how the world seemed to shatter. Every generation lives with the memory of a day like that. Yours is Sept. 11. Sorry to say that, but I can't imagine any of you ever forgetting it. You know how parents are. We always want to keep the dam of bad news from breaking. For as long as possible, we want to protect you from all the ugly things that occur in the world, at the hands of cruel and ignorant and greedy and fanatical people. We want to extend your childhood for as long as possible, so that you have time to experience the good things and come to know life on Earth first as a great field of possibilities and pleasures. We figure you'll learn about the bad stuff in bits and pieces as you grow up. We just hate to see you become jaded by, say, 12.
But Sept. 11 was the day the dam broke. There was nothing we could do to protect you. A lot of parents felt helpless that day. We might have shown you a strong face, but inside we were crumbling. Which probably makes you wonder why I would conjure up that awful day again. It's because I had an idea to put in a plug for thinking in a way that's bigger than the day. I want you to think of yourselves in a grand way — as true citizens of the Earth and the Future Earth — and to consider all that could be done to make life better and maybe even reduce the chances of another Sept. 11.
I know that sounds like something you might have heard at a high school commencement, or in church, in synagogue or mosque. But, look, you either have to think in these grand terms or became a cynical crank who crawls through life, contributing nothing. We have the choice of stewing in our anger, bewilderment and hatred or reaching deep inside and pulling out the good stuff that could actually make a difference in the world.
I heard Rush Limbaugh say on the radio that Americans haven't been angry enough, that we're too soft, too caught up in trying to understand those who hate us instead of just hating them back. But Rush is wrong. Americans went through their anger and their hate, and if you're scraping around for a sign of hope today, it's that the anger and the hate did not fester. It turned into action and into displays of concern and kindness, of patriotism, of faith and love.
Hate begets hate; anger begets anger. Many generations have failed to grasp that lesson. You can do better than that.
Elizabeth Wainio's last act in a life of 27 years was to use her cell phone to call her mother, Esther Heymann, from one of the hijacked airliners. "Elizabeth wanted to tell me how much she loved each of us in the family," her mother wrote me from Catonsville in July. "She expressed concern for the well-being of those who would have to recover from this murderous act. In her typical style of thoughtfulness, Elizabeth calmly expressed more concern for how her family would recover [than] about herself. … Elizabeth knew what mattered: love well, and be unselfish."
I promise, kids, no one is going to give you a hard time if you bake cookies for the old woman who lives alone down the street, or call up a grandfather in the middle of a day to tell him he's loved. You can do something selfless for a classmate or a teammate, or your club or your neighborhood. You can read a good book, or encourage someone else to read it. You could teach someone to read it. Look for what's good in the orneriest person you know. Say hello to someone who usually looks too shy to start a conversation. Make a stranger feel included by kicking the soccer ball or throwing the basketball his way. Make someone laugh. Write a thank-you note to someone who deserves it — a teacher, a mentor, a coach — just so they feel appreciated and remembered. Be generous. Open your eyes and ears to the world, to people who are different. Dare to be smart. Dare to do something great. You're stuck with this day as a landmark in your lives. Use it for something good.

In the commercial upholstery market, is small beautiful?
September 7th, 2015 / By: Jamie Swedberg / Markets, Upholstery
Smaller upholstery shops can offer personal service as well as repair and long-term maintenance. "When we're designing these pieces, we're trying to build it for not only durability so that it doesn't get damaged, but so that if it does get damaged, we're able to repair it relatively easily without disrupting their business all that much," says Michael McMahon, project manager at Furniture Concepts Inc.
Smaller shops may not always have the staff, but they're local and they're flexible, advantages that are still valuable in the business.
With commercial furniture and upholstery becoming increasingly large-scale and increasingly technical in nature, is there still a niche for smaller shops? The answer is yes—if only by the skin of their teeth.
Robert Burkart, owner of Sewline Upholstery Ltd., Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada, says one of the biggest problems with commercial upholstery jobs is the strain they put on staffing. With only five people in his shop and ongoing difficulties finding skilled laborers, he's stretched to the limit all the time. A major commercial gig is welcome, but often difficult to fulfill.
"The public library just got a government grant, and they walked in the other day," he says. "We got [orders for] 60 and 80 chairs, respectively, of two different types, and 8 wingbacks." For a large job like that, Burkart says, he sometimes has to call two ex-staffers out of retirement for freelance work, just so he can meet deadlines.
Another issue is profit margins. Sewline doesn't have the staff in-house to build frames, so it contracts that work out. And very often, restaurant chains and corporate designers will pick out and purchase their own fabric. The upside is that the small shop doesn't have to worry about technical specs, but the down side is that there's only labor and foam to charge for, so the shop simply doesn't make very much money per item.
"One of the things we have is a CNC routing machine that cuts out a lot of our parts for the frames. You just program it in, you hit go, and it cuts all the parts out for you and you know that they're all exactly the same, they're all going to fit, it's great," says Michael McMahon. "So this machine is basically like hiring another guy to work in the frame shop, and nobody that works in the frame shop has to machine all their own parts anymore." Photos: Furniture Concepts Inc.
"We're looking at a restaurant now that's doing a renovation, and they want to move two booths from the lounge over into the restaurant," says Burkart. "Well, I have to get my contractor to do that, over and above my price. And then they want to supply materials. That takes away any kind of profits on our jobs."
But there's a bright side to being a small shop in this market, too. Smaller, more locally based businesses can take on work that larger shops can't or won't do, and that means there will always be a place for them in the furniture-building ecosystem. And they are sometimes more nimble and flexible than bigger organizations, thriving on diverse jobs and eclectic small-scale projects.
"I started this company when I was 17 doing automotive upholstery, and every time I would get somebody who was a good upholsterer, we started doing what they could do, too," says Larry Schneider, owner, president and CEO of Homestyle Awning & Upholstery, Bay View, Wis. "So we do furniture, we do cars, we do boats, we do aircraft, we do awnings. We just did all the seats for the high-speed ferry that goes out of Milwaukee to Michigan. We do stuff for inventors. Right now we're doing 25 cushions for a guy who invented a foot massager that takes money for airports and hotels."
Is diversification the key to his company's success? Absolutely, Schneider says. "When people come in here and they have a boat seat done and then they have their furniture done, they're like, 'Man, you can do anything.'"
Another plus: small shops can offer personal service and are often on hand for repairs and long-term care. "When we build our furniture, we try to build it with the idea that at some point it's going to have to be repaired," says Michael McMahon, project manager of operations at the 15-person shop Furniture Concepts Inc., Malden, Mass. "When we make restaurant booths, we make it so that our seats are removable. If the restaurant is local, we're able to go into the city in the morning, pick up two or three damaged seats, bring them back to our shop, reupholster them, and bring them back before they even start serving lunch. When we're designing these pieces, we're trying to build it for not only durability so that it doesn't get damaged, but so that if it does get damaged, we're able to repair it relatively easily without disrupting their business all that much."
Burkart offers the same kind of service. It's the up side of restaurant chains buying and stockpiling their own rolls of fabric and vinyl: the right material is always available when the seats need to be re-covered.
"I go in before the restaurant opens," he says. "I can have four seats done today and another four tomorrow. They like that service. Locally, that's what I'm known for."

With an effective compensation and benefits package, the organization will see improvements to include quality employees. There will still be ample turnover, which is healthy for the business. Provided the package is reviewed and updated to be current and remains competitive, you will consistently draw upper echelon talent, and exceptional performers.
In regards to training a strong, educated, and high-performance workforce, an up-to-date training plan that will equip employees with the tools necessary to meet organizational goals. Learning plans will need to be technical, as well as practical. Managerial level employees will have access to a tuition assistance program that will encourage higher education for use within the organization and their field of expertise. Employees will not only be equipped to perform the core tasks of their profession, but will also be well versed in teamwork, sensitivity, leadership, and recognizing various personality types, and how to better interact with them. They will be offered monthly internal training sessions, hosted by their co-workers, and will alternatively host them as well. This allows for fiscally sound cross-training opportunities, and well-rounded individuals to advance within the organization. This will also serve as a measure of the effectiveness of the training program, by allowing the employees to demonstrate their knowledge to their peers and leadership.

Q: Работа функции std::basic_istream::get У меня есть файл с последовательностью int чисел. Необходимо в цикле считывать по одному числу, чтобы проводить с ним манипуляции. В документации сказано, что метод in.get() возвращает int_type. Что этот тип означает?
std::ifstream in("in.txt");
std::cout << in.get(); // печатает код первого символа файла, а надо первое число

A: in.get() это аналог getchar() -- читает отдельные символы (char) из потока. Метод возвращает int_type вместо char_type, чтобы была также возможность вернуть индикатор конца файла (eof).
Чтобы числа в вектор скопировать из текстового файла, можно istream_iterator использовать:
#include <algorithm> // copy
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <vector>

int main()
{
  std::istream_iterator<int> numbers(std::cin), eof;
  // копируем по одному числу из ввода в вывод
  // std::copy(numbers, eof, std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, "\n"));
  // или в вектор можно сохранить для дальнейшей обработки
  std::vector<int> a(numbers, eof);
  std::copy(a.begin(), a.end(), std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, "\n"));
}

istream_iterator<int>(in) использует аналог in >> i внутри. Подробнее: Как найти слово?

A: Похоже, что числа в Вашем файле хранятся в текстовом представлении и Вы неправильно их считываете. Фактически, Вы читаете текстовый файл посимвольно, получая числовой код прочитанных символов. Вместо этого нужно читать до первого пробельного символа и преобразовывать полученную строку в целое число. Для этого можно воспользоваться оператором чтения из потока.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    std::ifstream in("in.txt");
    if (in.is_open()) {
        int i;
        while (in >> i) {
            std::cout << i;
        }
    }
}

Q: I am adding an ImageView in android app in android studio. The image size is 1.93MB. When I am running the AVD, app is getting closed due to an error This is the error I am getting :
java.lang.RuntimeException: Canvas: trying to draw too large(115781908bytes) bitmap.
Is there any way by which I can fix this without reducing the image quality?

A: That isn't a 1.93 MB image.  That's a 110MB image.  The compressed size of the file isn't what matters, its the uncompressed size-  which is 4*width*height.
Why is your image so large, in terms of width and height?  That's over 5300x5300.  You need a smaller image.  Reducing the quality wouldn't help, as the uncompressed size would be the same.
Edit:  Fixed initial math where I was off by a suffix. However the math on the pixel size was correct.

A: 115,781,908 Bytes is nearly equal to 115 MB.
If you could export it with SVG that would be better of course.


Another year down at Your Desk, and another wonderful Christmas party. Fab food, lots of laughs and DJs to boot.
What better way to see out 2016 than with a good ol' fashioned party. This year, we celebrated our Your Desk Christmas Party at our Clarence St venue. It was the perfect spot, and even had room for a dancefloor!
We think it's safe to say the Christmas Party was a blast (and whoever gifted those moustaches is a genius!). Thank you for coming along to celebrate with us!
If you missed the fun or just want to re-live the night, here are a few of the highlights from the night.
Big shout out to Mama and Papa Sullivan for the sumptuous spread of food, Jordan Kirk-Wylde for the snaps and every one of our Your Desk members for the sprite and cheer!

Following on from the publication of their report[linkme], Susan Bright (Oxford) and Lisa Whitehouse (Hull) held an invite only seminar at the beginning of June to encourage the development and exchange of ideas relating to housing possession cases.
Speakers at the seminar gave an insight into their experience of the legal process of housing possession in three separate plenary panels: mortgage, private landlord and social landlord cases and, later on, participants were invited to imagine recommendations for reform and the practical means by which to implement it.
As well encouraging discussion between key players within the housing possession process so as to enhance knowledge of their respective roles and how the process might be improved, Professor Bright and Dr Whitehouse intend to build upon the success of this event by involving seminar participants in the design and implementation of a future research project on decision-making in housing possession cases.
Recommendations following this seminar can be seen in 'Key to change' in the New Law Journal, 15 August 2014, available online.

Mariners notebook: Fifth spot in rotation still up for grabs
Mar 26, 2016, 1:32 PM | Updated: 2:26 pm
Nathan Karns is battling with James Paxton for the final spot in the Mariners' rotation. (AP)
BY SHANNON DRAYER
Mariners Insider, Seattle Sports
It's a busy day in Peoria, with the Mariners taking on the Dodgers in the main stadium and Hisashi Iwakuma pitching on a back field in a minor-league game. Kuma's last two outings of the spring will be against minor leaguers, but that isn't a concern as he knows what he needs to get ready, and he, of course, has a spot cemented in the rotation. As for the two who are fighting for the fifth spot in the rotation – Nathan Karns and James Paxton, according to Scott Servais – the assignment is still up for grabs.
"It's very close," Servais said. "Neck and neck. They both have struggled at times, they both have looked okay for an inning or two here and there. It's very close."
Servais' tone was a little grim when talking about his fifth starter candidates. It may have been because he is suffering from what has now been officially termed "the crud" – not to be confused with the flu that is going around – but there was a hint of something else in his voice as well. No doubt he'd hoped someone's performance would make this decision easier. While both Karns and Paxton have shown good stuff, neither have been consistent in their outings.
I mentioned the competition at first base yesterday and we should have news on that today or tomorrow, with Dae-Ho Lee's opt-out date Sunday. Luis Sardinas seems to have all but won the battle for the utility spot. In addition to playing some centerfield for the first time this spring, he is now also working at first base. As for the backup catcher spot, Servais likes what he has seen from both Steve Clevenger and late addition Rob Brantly.
"I have been very pleased with the progress that Clevenger has made defensively," Servais said. "For me, just the receiving and physical stuff, the blocking, throwing have been fine. That's what stood out for me because he has done a bit better there than I anticipated he would in this camp. He is in a good spot."
Brantly has made some defensive adjustments as well and the bat has certainly been noticed.
"Brantly brings some different things offensively as well," said Servais. "I think we are in a good spot there. Catching is hard to find and there are a lot of clubs looking for it."
Both catchers are out of options and there is a good possibility that either would be claimed off waivers, with the Astros being one of the teams looking for a backup since Max Stassi is out for at least six weeks due to hamate bone surgery. Clevenger is in the lineup today.

Last night the majority of the starters played the full 10 innings. While I was looking at the lineup posted in the clubhouse I heard a big voice over me excitedly exclaim, "Right field! Believe it." That, of course, was Nelson Cruz, who still very much likes playing in the field. Marte returns to the field after missing two days due to the flu.
&#8226 Tony Zych is scheduled to pitch today, which would give him his first back-to-back appearances of the spring. While there are plenty of questions remaining about the bullpen, Zych is hardly one of them, according to Servais.
"I think he is throwing the ball very well," he said. "I'm very happy with where he's at. He got roughed around in that one outing over at San Francisco this spring, but he has bounced back. He has a short memory, which is really good for a reliever."
&#8226 In addition to Iwakuma, we could see Franklin Gutierrez in a minor-league game today as he looks to get more at-bats after missing nearly a week with the flu.

Il remdesivir (codice di sviluppo GS-5734) è un farmaco antivirale della classe degli analoghi nucleotidici.

È stato sviluppato da Gilead Sciences come trattamento per la malattia da virus Ebola e le infezioni da virus Marburg, sulla base della tecnologia ProTide precedentemente sviluppata da Chris McGuigan all'Università di Cardiff. È stato poi dimostrato che possiede attività antivirale contro altri virus a RNA a singolo filamento come il virus respiratorio sinciziale umano, virus Junin (Argentinian mammarenavirus), virus della febbre da virus Lassa, virus Nipah, virus Hendra e i coronavirus (compresi i virus che causano la MERS e SARS).

Vari studi sono stati effettuati per valutare l'efficacia contro il virus SARS-CoV-2, responsabile della pandemia di COVID-19: nell'ottobre 2020 il farmaco è stato approvato negli Stati Uniti d'America per il trattamento della malattia, nonostante varie critiche da parte della comunità scientifica sulla validità delle evidenze ottenute.

Ricerca
Test di laboratorio suggeriscono che remdesivir è efficace contro un'ampia gamma di virus, tra cui SARS-CoV e MERS-CoV. Il farmaco è stato usato per curare l'epidemia di virus Ebola nell'Africa occidentale del 2013-2016.

Ebola
Remdesivir è stato sottoposto a test clinici durante l'epidemia del virus Ebola del 2013-2016. I risultati preliminari si sono dimostrati promettenti e il farmaco è stato usato in situazioni di emergenza durante l'epidemia di Ebola di Kivu iniziata nel 2018. Ad agosto 2019 i funzionari sanitari congolesi hanno annunciato che il farmaco è meno efficace dei trattamenti con anticorpi monoclonali come mAb114 e REGN-EB3. I test sono stati utili per capire il profilo tossicologico del farmaco.

Coronavirus
Alla fine di gennaio 2020, in risposta alla pandemia di coronavirus 2019-2020, Gilead ha avviato test di laboratorio sul remdesivir al fine di curare il SARS-CoV-2, affermando che il farmaco si era dimostrato attivo contro SARS e MERS in modelli animali di infezione da coronavirus. Gilead ha fornito remdesivir per il trattamento di un piccolo numero di pazienti in collaborazione con le autorità mediche cinesi. Alla fine di gennaio 2020, remdesivir è stato somministrato al primo paziente americano con polmonite da SARS-CoV-2, nella contea di Snohomish, Washington. Sebbene non si possano trarre grandi conclusioni sulla base del singolo trattamento, le condizioni del paziente sono migliorate notevolmente il giorno successivo e alla fine è stato dimesso. Sempre alla fine di gennaio 2020, i ricercatori medici cinesi hanno riferito che remdesivir e altri due farmaci, la clorochina e il favipiravir, hanno "effetti inibitori abbastanza buoni" su SARS-CoV-2, dopo di che sono state presentate le richieste per iniziare i test clinici.

Il farmaco è stato impiegato come terapia antivirale sperimentale all'Istituto nazionale per le malattie infettive "Lazzaro Spallanzani" di Roma per curare una coppia di turisti cinesi colpita da COVID-19.

Il 22 ottobre 2020 la Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ha approvato il remdesivir per l'impiego nei casi di COVID-19. Tale decisione è stata oggetto di diverse critiche da parte della comunità scientifica, secondo la quale gli studi sino ad allora effettuati non avevano evidenziato capacità terapeutiche nettamente maggiori rispetto alle terapie già impiegate nel trattamento della malattia. Pochi giorni prima, il 15 ottobre, l'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità aveva pubblicato un rapporto provvisorio dello studio multinazionale Solidarity trial asserendo che l'impiego del remdesivir, dell'idrossiclorochina, del lopinavir e dell'interferone aveva dimostrato capacità minime o pari a zero nel ridurre la mortalità e il periodo di ospedalizzazione dei malati di COVID-19. Gilead (l'azienda produttrice del remdesivir) contestò i risultati dello studio, sostenendo che fossero stati condizionati dalla multinazionalità (e conseguentemente dall'eterogenicità dei sistemi sanitari coinvolti e relativi standard) dello stesso.

Veterinaria
Nel 2019 la forma attiva di remdesivir, GS-441524, ha mostrato di avere possibile attività nel trattamento della peritonite infettiva felina causata da un coronavirus.

Meccanismo d'azione e resistenza
Remdesivir è un profarmaco, nello specifico un ProTide, che viene metabolizzato nella sua forma attiva GS-441524, analogo dell'adenosina. Interferisce con l'azione dei virus a RNA polimerasi. Non è noto se funga da terminatore delle catene di RNA o causi mutazioni. Sappiamo che l'RNA polimerasi RNA-dipendente del virus dell'ebola è inibita per la maggior parte dalla terminazione della catena.

Nel 2018 sono state identificate mutazioni dell'RNA del virus dell'epatite di topo che causano una resistenza parziale a remdesivir. Queste mutazioni rendono i virus meno efficaci in natura.

We have loaded ChEMBL data into ZINC. Combined with the purchasability information, this makes it easy to shop for compounds. Use the Search->by Target menu item.
Dozens of vendors have been added in the past year. We now have more than 200 catalogs.


Canary Wharf is just as static as the city, excepting the Hyde Park. That is all. I would rather be at Inverness or Penzance where I could stroll slowly and observe rather than choking from claustrophobia with the throng of tourists at Oxford Street and Camden. This is the view from the bedroom. The children were luckier. Their bed faced a glass wall which overlooked the wharf and its boats.

Day 1 Embark in Kugluktuk (Coppermine)
Located at the mouth of the Coppermine River, southwest of Victoria Island on the Coronation Gulf, Kugluktuk is the westernmost community in Nunavut. The Coppermine River itself is designated a Canadian Heritage River for the important role it played as an exploration and fur trade route. Copper deposits along the river attracted the first explorers to the area. Because the tundra is close to the tree line, a variety of wildlife can be viewed in the area, including grizzly bears, wolverines and moose, as well as tundra wildlife, such as musk ox, caribou, foxes, and wolves.
Day 2 Coronation Gulf
Located between Victoria Island and the Arctic coast of mainland Canada, the Coronation Gulf is an extensive body of water that is linked to the Arctic Ocean via the Dolphin and Union Strait on the west and by the Dease Strait and Queen Maud Gulf on the east. The gulf was named in 1821 by John Franklin in honor of the coronation of King George IV. The environment and Inuit cultural history of the region was studied by Rudolph Anderson and Diamond Jenness in 1916 as part of the Canadian Arctic Expedition. Explore the area and make an opportunistic expedition stop.
Day 3 Wreck of the HMS Erebus
The HMS Erebus was a Hecla-class bomb vessel built in Wales in 1826. She was named after the dark region in Hades of Greek mythology and weighed 372 tons. The ship took part in the Ross Expedition from 1839 to 1843, and was abandoned during the legendary Franklin Expedition after becoming icebound during an attempt to locate the fabled Northwest Passage. Her sunken wreck had actually been designated a National Historic Site prior to being located in September of 2014 by a Parks Canada underwater archaeology team. Here, have a chance to snorkel over the wreck. Those not wanting to get in the water may be able to view the wreck on screen where a member of Parks Canada's Underwater Archaeology Team can interpret the wreck using an underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV).
Day 4 Usqsuqtuuq (Gjøa Haven)
In 1903, explorer Roald Amundsen, while looking for the Northwest Passage, sailed through the James Ross Strait and stopped at a natural harbor on the island's south coast. Unable to proceed due to sea ice, he spent the winters of 1903–04 and 1904–05 at Usqsuqtuuq. While there, he learned Arctic living skills from the local Netsilik Inuit, skills that would later prove invaluable in his Antarctic explorations. He used his ship, Gjøa, as a base for explorations in the summer of 1904, sledding the Boothia Peninsula and traveling to the magnetic North Pole. Usqsuqtuuq offers a lot to its visitors, including he Northwest Passage Territorial Historic Park, where you can learn about the voyages of explorers such as Frobisher, Ross, and Franklin. Also, there is a 9-hole golf course, known to be Canada's most northerly course. Although Usqsuqtuuq is becoming more modern, many traditional Inuit activities are still being enjoyed, including throat singing, drum dancing, and hunting.
Day 5-6 Peel Sound and Parry Channel
As you head north up Peel Sound, get into serious polar bear country and be on the lookout for good spotting opportunities. Parry Channel is named after Arctic explorer William Edward Parry who got as far as Melville Island in 1819 before being blocked by ice at McClure Strait. Depending on ice conditions, you may make expedition stops along the way among the spectacular landscapes, a perfect setting for hiking and exploring the geological diversity of the area.
Day 7 Qausuittuq National Park
Parks Canada and the Qikiqtani Inuit Association (QIA) worked together with the community of Resolute Bay to create this new national park on Bathurst Island. After a local contest, the name of the park was selected: Qausuittuq means "place where the sun doesn't rise". During the winter months, the sun stays below the horizon for several months at a time. It is a traditional Inuit hunting ground, a vast habitat for the endangered Peary caribou, and a pristine example of Arctic wilderness. Today represents an unparalleled opportunity to experience the true spirit of expedition, and become a part of Qausuittuq's future.
Day 8 Beechey Island
In 1845 Sir John Franklin took his expedition of 129 men and two ships into the Wellington Channel. Not a soul returned from the fateful expedition. It was two years before search parties were launched. Aside from the bodies of three souls buried here, only relics were found as clues to the disappearance. The three graves found at Beechey Island left no indication as to the fate of the rest of the British party. In the autumn of 2014, Canadian archaeologists discovered remnants of the HMS Erebus in the frozen waters of the Northwest Passage, and in 2015, her sister ship—the Terror—was similarly located.
Day 9 Simirlik National Park
Sirmilik National Park, located in the Qikiqtaaluk region of Nunavut, is known as "the place of glaciers" in Inuktitut. It is composed of three areas: most of Bylot Island, Oliver Sound, and Baffin Island's Borden Peninsula. Beluga whales, seals, walruses, Peary caribou, arctic foxes, arctic hares, and wolves all call the area home—and the park is a migratory area for narwhals. A major seabird colony is found in Baillarge Bay and Bylot Island, the latter of which contains a rare colony of greater snow geese. The local glacial activity is of particular note, as are the sedimentary remains they deposit in the sea, leading to stunningly opaque, azure waters. Though the area became a national park in 2001, it continues to be inhabited by the Inuit who continue to hunt and fish the area as their ancestors did.
Day 10 Mittimatalik (Pond Inlet)
Mittimatalik is a bustling Arctic community surrounded by one of the most beautiful landscapes in the eastern Arctic. Have a chance to explore the town, including its excellent library and other facilities, and meet many local citizens who gladly share their culture. Mittimatalik is a famous region for viewing marine mammals, including the elusive narwhal.
Day 11 Northeast Baffin Fjords
This day enjoy an expedition in the truest sense as you navigate the fjords of northeast Baffin Island. Baffin's fjords are striking, affording stunning perspectives on geological processes. The Ocean Endeavour is the perfect vessel for exploring these hidden treasures of the north, as her maneuverability and shallow draft allow her to access regions that would be impassable to larger vessels. The crew is on alert for changing weather and ice conditions and uses its judgement as to which route along the coast would be the most spectacular. As ever, the team is on deck for the duration, searching for wildlife and contextualizing the mighty landscape through which you travel.
Day 12 Auyuittuq National Park
Located on the Cumberland Peninsula, Auyuittuq National Park ("the land that never melts") transitioned from a national park reserve to a full national park in 2000. It is home to little vegetation, although plants like mountain avens and saxifrage eke out lives on the barren terrain. Only twelve species of mammal call this remarkable area home due to the exceptionally low vegetation supply. Auyuittuq is noted for spectacular fjords, glaciers, and ice fields.
Day 13 East Baffin Island
Today explore the eastern coast of Baffin Island or Qikiqtaaluk, the largest island in Canada and the fifth largest island in the world, with a population of over 11,000. Named after English explorer William Baffin, it is likely that the island was known to Pre-Columbian Norse of Greenland and Iceland during the eleventh century, and presumed to be the Helluland of the Viking sagas. The coastline of Baffin Island is highly indented, particularly on the east and north. Large bays such as those of Frobisher Bay and Cumberland Sound are the largest and cut deeply into the southeast coast. The island's immensity and bewildering coastline confused early explorers and concealed its geography until recent times. It was likely here that one of the great ice sheets that covered most of Canada originated some 18,000 years ago, and ice lingered on the island until almost 1500 years ago; vast areas are still sheathed in ice year-round. Today, the Penny Ice Cap and the Barnes Ice Cap are the largest ice caps on the island; they are both remnants of the Laurentide ice sheet that once covered much of the North American continent. Both are currently in a state of retreat.
Day 14 At Sea
Today the presentation series kicks you into a high gear as you steam across the Davis Strait, bound for the spectacular Greenlandic coast. Expect to participate in workshops, engage in discussions and hear expert reflection on the journey thus far, and look forward to the exciting trip finale that awaits.
Day 15 Ilulissat
Ilulissat translates literally into "iceberg", and there couldn't be a more fitting name for this stunning coastal community. Your visit includes time in the colorful town and a chance to hike out along a boardwalk to an elevated viewpoint where you can observe the great fields of ice. Cruise in a fleet of Zodiacs through the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Ilulissat Icefjord. The Icefjord is home to the Sermeq Kujalleq Glacier, the most active and fastest moving glacier in the world at nineteen meters per day, calving more than thirty-five square kilometers of ice annually. The glacier has been the object of scientific attention for 250 years.
Day 16 Itilleq Fjord
The west Greenland coastline is a rich mixture of fishing communities, many islands, and complex coastal waterways. Make an expedition stop here to explore the Greenlandic landscape.
Day 17 Disembark in Kangerlussuaq, Greenland
Make your journey down spectacular Sondre Stromfjord, where early risers can experience its beauty. Sondre Stromfjord is one of the longest fjords in the world and boasts 168 kilometers of superb scenery! Kangerlussuaq, the town at its eastern head, means 'the big fjord.'
Disembark the Ocean Endeavour and make your way to the airport to meet your charter flight home.

Students were notified of the Code Orange via email, a pager system, and group SMS text message. Twenty-five students participated in the drill, while the three remaining student leaders worked with the ED staff and HazMat Branch Director to ensure that all protocols were followed properly. Five groups of five students took turns donning HazMat gear, decontaminating three mannequins (an infant, a child, and an unconscious adult), and then safely removing the gear.
All modes of communication were received within 5 min, and all the students arrived at the ED within 20 min. The decontamination was determined to be sufficient by the team leader, Emergency Department staff, and HazMat Branch Director and was completed approximately 10 min after the entrance to the decontamination chamber.
Current US medical school curricula lack emergency preparedness training in response to potential terrorist attacks and hazardous material exposures. Our program, while still in its early workings, not only allows students to develop critical knowledge and practical skills but also provides a unique opportunity to leverage much-needed manpower and resources during emergency situations.
In response to the increasing threat of terrorism in the USA, the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) called for better coordination between medicine and public health, as well as the incorporation of disaster education into medical education curricula . Health care experts found this to be highly relevant, and have consistently shown support for the proposed addition of disaster education; furthermore, they have supported increasing the role of medical students in disaster relief efforts [2, 3]. Moreover, polls have shown that the public often turns to their health care providers for guidance in cases of public health emergencies [1, 4, 5]. Even though the US terrorism index is at its highest in the past decade, the majority of medical schools in the USA still lack organized disaster medicine education, and few programs worldwide involve medical students in emergency response teams .
The number of host national and international health care providers trained to respond to disaster situations is very limited and can be easily overwhelmed . Thus, medical student training to respond to these unfortunate scenarios should be of the upmost priority. Their involvement can be used to provide much-needed human resources, and previous studies have shown that early involvement is essential in building a strong foundation and adopting a life-long passion for the topic [1, 2]. In response, our team designed and implemented a replicable disaster-training curriculum for the development of the hospital's first medical student hazardous materials response team. We understand that available resources can vary greatly at different institutions, but we believe that the most important aspects of this training process are quite generalizable and that the processes detailed here can serve as a structured guide and resource for other institutions to implement similar programs.
In January 2016, first-year medical students were recruited to take part in the medical school's first Medical Student HazMat Team via email and a general information meeting. Students who expressed interest met with the co-founders of the team in which they were informed about the objective and responsibilities of the HazMat team. The objective discussed was the establishment of an on-call hazardous materials response team that operates as an independent arm alongside other health care professionals in response to hazardous materials incidents or bioterrorism attacks. Responsibilities include participation in the training process, willingness to be part of an on-call team, and readiness to respond at any time. In order to maintain competency and to simulate the spontaneity of an actual terrorist attack, students are also expected to participate in drills every 6 to 9 months, with approximately 3 weeks notice. In the event of a hazardous materials incident, the team's primary job is the triaging and decontamination of patients in the Emergency Department (ED) ambulance bay, which doubles as a decontamination area.
Twenty-eight medical students agreed to participate. The training process included 4 h of didactic training, 4 h of operational training, and multiple simulations. Each phase of the training was led by disaster-trained health care professionals. The Director of Emergency Management led the didactic training and taught the students about the different types of disasters (including industrial accidents, terrorist attacks, bombings, and biochemical warfare) as well as the basic triaging strategies in the field and within the ambulance bay. The operational training was completed in the ambulance bay. Students learned how to properly don (put on) the personal protective equipment (PPE), properly decontaminate and handle patients, and safely doff (remove) the PPEs to avoid contaminating themselves. Due to the gaps in the existing literature regarding the training of medical students, we utilized the same training manual that the official University Hospital emergency response team uses for their training.
The operational training was taught by the Director of Emergency Management along with the team leaders and involved the use of mannequins that were triaged into predetermined zones designated inside the ambulance bay. Students donned in level 2 PPE began the decontamination process by first bringing the victims inside, placing them in a supine position on a conveyer belt, and then stripping off the contaminated clothing with trauma shears. The victims were then passed down the conveyer belt to get showered with high-pressure hoses and scrubbed down. Shaving cream was applied to the mannequins in various areas of their bodies to mimic the unpredictability of contamination. After the team members completed their decontamination of the simulated patient, the trainers provided feedback and pointed out any errors that may have occurred including leftover contaminants, inefficient decontamination methods, or dangerous manipulation of victims (Fig. 1).
In May 2016, the Medical Student HazMat Team joined our host academic hospital in participating in a citywide drill that simulated a large scale aerosolized release of Bacillus anthracis. The exercise was designed to address multiple Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP) capabilities and evaluate improvements based on information learned during 2015 hospital response efforts. The objectives focused on optimizing strategies in managing massive medical needs, coordination between emergency operations at different hospitals, information sharing, responder health and safety, and volunteer management. This citywide drill was used as an opportunity to run a small-scale Hazardous Materials Response Team (HMRT) decontamination simulation in the ED with our recently trained first-year and second-year medical students.
With 28 medical students present at the drill in May, 25 of the students performed the duties required by the simulation, while the three team leaders led the separate sections of the exercise including donning and doffing of the equipment, proper decontamination of the victims, and effective collaboration with the Emergency Department staff. The leaders worked alongside the HazMat Branch Director to ensure that all protocols were followed precisely. Due to the limited time available to initiate and complete the drill, and because the medical students had other various responsibilities, it was necessary to allow the students a 6-h window to receive a Code Orange notification and arrive at the ED for the simulated Code Orange.
Participating students were warned that they would be called in sometime between 0900 and 1500 and the day of the drill. At 0930, the team leader utilized multiple communication modalities to notify the students via email, group SMS text message, and a pager system that a Code Orange had been initiated. All modes of communication were confirmed to have been received within 5 min of sending the message, and all students arrived in the Emergency Department within 20 min of the initial notification. The team leader was informed beforehand by a Code Orange page and was waiting at the decontamination station. Other communication modalities that were considered but not used include phone trees, host hospital's internal alert system, and social media outlets. Once all the students arrived, the personal protective equipment had to be transported from the storage closet to the staging area.
Students were broken up into five groups of five at the time of the drill, and each group had the opportunity to fully don the equipment, run through the decontamination simulation, and then safely doff the equipment. A buddy system was used so that each student had help with the proper donning and doffing of equipment. Each group then worked as a single unit to decontaminate three dummy patients: an infant, a child, and an unconscious adult. The dummy patients were dressed in hospital gowns, so the students had to first remove them with trauma shears before beginning the decontamination. Shaving cream and toothpaste were used to represent the hazardous material exposure and were distributed throughout the body including on the sites that are difficult to decontaminate such as behind the ears, behind the knees, and the axilla. Each team member rotated through the various roles with each dummy patient: cutting off the patient's clothing, scrubbing the patient, flipping and handling the patient to clean the difficult sites of exposure, rinsing and drying, and preparing the patient for transport into the cold zone. Students had a difficulty in properly flipping the mannequins safely according to the training protocol, especially the adult mannequins that were larger in size.
At the end of the drill, each student's mannequin was assessed for satisfactory decontamination. From start to finish, the five groups of students were able to fully decontaminate the mannequins in an average time of approximately 10 min (Fig. 2). In a true decontamination scenario, it is more efficient to assign each team member to a single role, which allows for safe doffing of the equipment after completing his or her task. But in this drill, the rotation allowed every team member to experience each task while maneuvering around in the PPE suits. Spending an extended period of time exerting oneself while inside the suit can put the team members at risk of feeling dizzy, nauseous, and overheated, so we recommend limiting the time inside the suit to no more than 45 min. This is not a firm limit, however, and can be adjusted based on the weather and level of exertion required in the response to a given hazardous materials event. Additionally, we recommend monitoring the vital signs of the team members before donning and after doffing the suits. It is also continuously emphasized during training and simulations that team members should immediately remove themselves from a decontamination situation, whether real or simulated, if they do not feel well and are at risk of compromising the safety of themselves, their teammates, or the patients. It is also important for team members to monitor each other to monitor for any signs of fatigue.
Many countries have invested in various research projects that aim to improve the efficacy of disaster management [8–12]. However, despite the increasing threat of terrorism, training for this type of threat and other disasters has been focused on health care professionals and has neglected to include medical students [8, 13]. There have been multiple papers describing the importance of training and educating healthcare staff at all levels. Including a paper in the BMC Medical Education journal in which "a competency-based approach with specific measurable objectives was proposed by a national expert panel for specific levels of disaster training" . The article focuses solely on theoretical objectives and training exercises based on literature searches to identify courses that already exist. To our knowledge, this pilot program is one of the first to detail a replicable disaster training curriculum for the development of a medical student disaster response team, making University Medical Center one of the first medical schools in the nation to have an on-call Medical Student HazMat Team.
One of the most effective ways to practice, troubleshoot, and improve an emergency preparedness plan or protocol is through hospital-wide drills with various simulated incidents and patients . Hospitals and providers that participate in more exercises tend to perform better on objective evaluation tools that have been developed specifically to evaluate the effectiveness of emergency preparedness protocols . The curriculum presented here incorporates a simulation drill following didactic and operational training that is appropriate for medical students at any level of training. We believe that this structured approach is readily adaptable and can serve as a guide and resource for others.
Our experiences with training sessions and simulations have allowed us to discover three main areas for HMRT improvement: (1) equipment access, content, and organization; (2) practical skills and decontamination procedures; and (3) communication.
Durin5g the collection of the PPE, the medical students did not have the clearance to access the storage unit and were forced to interrupt an ED staff member to gain access. This cost the teams about 5 min and prevented another health care provider from performing his or her duties. Thus, it is important that the members of the Medical Student HazMat Team have the appropriate security clearance needed to access the necessary equipment and locations in the hospital. We also suggest a periodic equipment inspection by the team leaders to ensure that the equipment is always properly labeled and stored in an organized fashion. This will also reinforce their familiarity with the equipment.
In an actual Code Orange event that requires mass decontamination procedures, the staging area would be outside the ambulance bay while the decontamination area would be set up using the entire ambulance bay with floor to ceiling dividers splitting it up into three sections. One section would be for men, one for women, and one for families. There are connections in the ceiling for hooking hoses up to the water supply for decontamination. At the time of this drill, we were able to use the ceiling hoses in the ambulance bay but we did not have the dividers. We were able to decontaminate two victims at a time with two separate teams utilizing two separate conveyer belts.
During the decontamination portion of the simulation, the teams struggled with safely handling unconscious or non-ambulatory patients. Specifically, they struggled with the transportation and repositioning of unconscious patients from supine to prone. All of the team members were first- and second-year medical students, most of whom had not yet received proper training for transporting and maneuvering patients with possible spinal cord injuries. Thus, it is critical to incorporate these skills into the operational training so that team members can repeatedly practice safe patient handling while wearing the PPE suits. Other key skills that we believe should be addressed include handling of the hospital stretcher, basic life support (BLS), or advanced cardiac life support (ACLS).
The PPE suits made it very difficult for the medical students to communicate with one another. The suits muffled their voices, and the powered purifying respirator (PAPR) units created a steady hum that blocked out much of the surrounding noise. In addition, background noise from the hoses, sirens, patients, and other personnel all combined to make communication even more difficult. High-performance radio transmitters were utilized for every team member, but for some team members, they were difficult to use because they need at least one hand free to press the button that allows them to talk over the channel. This should improve with practice as team members become more comfortable using radio communication. It is essential that a team leader keeps the communication organized and in check, so as to allow all team members to be able to communicate clearly and effectively. When speaking through the radios in turn rather than all at once, communication between the medical students and with other integral members of the hospital personnel will allow for safer and more efficient decontamination. In light of recent threats of hacking of hospital systems, it is integral that these radio transmitters are encrypted to ensure patient privacy . In the event of radio transmitter malfunction, it is also important to establish non-verbal signals that will allow team members to communicate basic information.
There are several limitations in this process that will make future objective evaluation difficult. Although the curriculum incorporates both didactic and operational training and real-world simulation, single simulations only allow for brief practice with disaster medicine concepts and hazardous materials decontamination skills. Medical school hazardous materials response team curriculums should include periodic workshops and drills that will allow the team members to continuously improve their skills. The observations provided at this stage, while proving valuable for continued improvement of our program, do not quantitatively measure the effectiveness of the training, specifically as it relates to the medical students' knowledge, skills, and team efficiency. Our plan is to start incorporating objective data and outcome measures in future drills and training sessions so that we can better evaluate the effectiveness of our program. We will likely start by creating and distributing standardized questionnaires to the medical students to evaluate their disaster medicine knowledge and assess skills gained through the simulated drills. We will begin to develop checklists that can be used by an outside observer during a simulated drill that will allow team leaders to quantitatively evaluate each step of the decontamination process. We also plan to video record future drills, allowing the leaders and team to review all positive and negative outcomes and reflect on each drill. Finally, since we do not have any objective data, we cannot provide any evidence that the program positively affects patient outcomes, and there is no evidence that involving medical students in real disaster situations affects patient outcomes. The foundation has been built, however, and with this team in place, we believe that future objective measures will show that medical student involvement in hazardous materials response teams and disaster medicine as a whole will improve both patient outcomes and the competency of the nation's future physicians in responding to disaster scenarios.
According to the national security experts, it is not a matter of if a terrorist attack will take place on US soil; it is a matter of when . However, despite this increasing threat, the majority of medical schools in the USA still lack organized disaster medicine education. In response, we designed and implemented a pilot program for the development of the first-ever on-call medical student hazardous materials response team. The program detailed here, while still in its early workings, allows students to develop critical knowledge and practical skills in the realm of hazardous materials response and provides the groundwork and opportunity for further study of the effects of incorporating medical students into various roles on disaster medicine response teams.

Annie Moysey (* 1875 in Bourke (New South Wales), Australien; † 2. Februar 1976 in Wilcannia, Australien) war eine australische Matriarchin der Aborigines.

Leben und Werk
Moysey wurde als Tochter des europäischen Arbeiters Tom Kega und einer bald darauf verstorbenen Gunu-Mutter in der Nähe der Kreuzung der Flüsse Warrego River und Darling River in New South Wales geboren. Die Gunu gehörten zu den Barkindji, einem Stamm der Aborigines in New South Wales. Moysey wurde mit ihren Schwestern von ihrer Gunu-Großmutter traditionell aufgezogen und lernte mehrere Aboriginesprachen und Englisch. Ihr erster Ehemann Norman Clark half nicht bei der Erziehung ihrer Kinder, Enkelkinder oder der anderen Kinder, die in ihr Lager kamen. Sie arbeitete als alleiniger Familienversorger entlang des Darling River an verschiedenen Stationen, meistens jedoch in Old Toorale. Ein Mangel an Arbeitsplätzen zwang sie 1920 die Kinder flussabwärts in das Reservat der Pooncarie-Aborigines zu bringen. Um ihre Unabhängigkeit zu gewährleisten, schlug sie ein Lager jenseits der Grenzen auf. 1930 heiratete sie den 25-jährigen europäischen Arbeiter Leonard Alfred Moys in der anglikanischen Kirche St. James in Wilcannia und blieb während der Weltwirtschaftskrise und danach die Hauptverdienerin.

1933 lebte sie mit ihrer Familie in der Missionsstation in Menindee und kehrte 1939 dann zurück nach Wilcannia. Wieder verwitwet wurde sie als  Grannie Moysey  bekannt und als Matriarchin und Hüterin der Stammesgesetze verehrt.

Sie war die letzte Person in ihrer Gegend, die den Corroboree auf traditionelle Weise durchführen konnte. Ihren Enkel, den Künstler William Badger Bates unterrichtete sie im Kalti Paarti-Schnitzen.

American Bard Theater Company brings three one acts from the past and presents them in the present for an evening of relevance. Uniting the works of Susan Glaspell and Marita Bonner, Visionary Voices: 2 Women Writers, 3 Big Stories is a celebration of important works for today.
Kicking off the evening is Trifles by Susan Glaspell and directed by Aimee Todoroff. Possibly Glaspell's most revered work, Trifles recounts the strangulation murder of Mr. Wright, presumably by his wife Minnie. Trying to find clues, the county attorney, Mr. Hale, and Mr. Peters examine the upstairs of the house leaving Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale alone downstairs. As they wait, they come across a dead canary, leading the ladies to believe Mrs. Wright may have in fact done the crime. This one act is mystery at its core. There is immense intrigue but Todoroff needed to help heighten the stakes by amount up the pacing and fear. There was an ominous feeling, assisted by the atmospheric sounds from Matthew Fischer, but as a whole, the piece was lacking. There is inherent strength in Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale, yet Mel Houe and Cheri Wicks didn't quite pull it out of them as much as they could have.
The next piece up was Exit: An Illusion by Marita Bonner. Directed by Tonya Pinkins, Exit: An Illusion is a dangerous tale about colorism and sexism. Dot is on her way out for a date with a guy called Exit Mann but Buddy is furious at the though. Through a rage-filled rant from a visibly jealous Buddy, Dot insists on going despite her frail state. Playing like a surrealistic nightmare, this drama pulls the fear out within us all. Pinkins capitalized upon this. Where Exit: An Illusion could have been a bit stronger was through its lighting. This play is almost a blank canvas of possibility. When the piece is directed in the manner as it was, Christopher Weston's design was not as strong as it could have been. It was too noticeable. Perhaps a practical lamp or too could have allowed more light to shine without risking the full stage flush. If your focus gets pulled by the lights, it draws attention away from the story. As Dot, Morgan McGuire was a sultry rag doll, thrown around by the powerful force of T. Morgan as Buddy.
Closing out the night was a play of hope in a time of disparity. Glaspell's The People follow the titular newspaper on the verge of closing. As the news blows in the wind, a cavalcade of characters in a cornucopia of costumes arrives to share their voice and save the paper. With an important message deep within the text, the cartoonish nature of the narrative allowed for fun to be had. Directed by Todoroff, each character was given a clear and consistent identity. Through a structural lens you almost wish Glaspell could get another pass at her text but Todoroff highlighted the themes with ease. With twelve in the cast, staging all those bodies with one true entrance into the office could have been a headache but Todoroff pulled it off. Cheri Wicks as The Woman left you with a sense of triumph with her momentous monologue.
Visionary Voices was ambitious in the sense that this was three different plays needing three different worlds. Wonder how you create three distinct looks for three very different plays? Ask Zhao Mingshuo. Visionary Voices was a scenic triumph. How Mingshuo made it work was extraordinary. From a Nebraska farm house to a tiny apartment in Chicago to the office of a newspaper, the design allowed each world have it's own temperature and pallet. Sure, it may not have been the cleanest in execution but it was visionary!
American Bard Theater Company has provided an important night of art for two important voice in American literature. Celebrating these texts of the brilliant women is wonderful. Visionary Voices just needed a little more polish.

ICE Pursuing Migrant Charged With Killing Five Veterans, Married Couple in Horror Crash
Head of motor vehicles dept. resigns amid budding scandal
Image Credits: East Window Police Dept..
By Dan Lyman Wednesday, June 26, 2019
A Ukrainian man who reportedly arrived in the U.S. as a refugee has been charged with killing seven bikers in New Hampshire, and now Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has filed a detainer with local sheriffs.
Volodymyr Zhukovskyy, 23, was recently given permanent resident status in the U.S. despite an extensive criminal record, including multiple arrests for drunk driving, a DUI conviction, and a drug conviction.
Zhukovskyy is suspected of "driving erratically and crossed the center line" on a two lane highway before plowing head-on into a column of motorcyclists near Mount Washington, New Hampshire, on Friday night, killing seven, including five Marine veterans and a married couple.
State police say they confiscated "wax packets containing a residue suspected of being heroin" from Zhukovskyy, and additional charges could be brought against him if they test positive.
A judge ordered him held after he pleaded not guilty to seven counts of negligent homicide.
Zhukovskyy holds a lengthy record of convictions, arrests, and driving-related incidents, including at least two which occurred in the past two months.
On May 11, Zhukovskyy "failed a sobriety test after someone called the cops to tell them that someone was revving a truck engine and druggedly jumping around outside of a Walmart, according to the police report from the incident," the Boston Herald reports. "The officers who showed up arrested Zhukovskyy and were so alarmed by his 'suicidal comments and extreme behavior' that they turned him over to medics and sent him to the hospital."

On June 3, a tractor-trailer Zhukovskyy was driving near Houston, Texas, flipped over during a violent crash which he blamed on another driver who had allegedly cut him off and caused him to swerve, according to police.
"In that same Texas town, cops arrested him four months earlier on Feb. 11, when at 2 a.m. at the local Denny's, Zhukovskyy was sitting at the counter 'talking to himself and acting strange,'" the Herald reports. "Police searched him and found a crack pipe, charging him with possession of drug paraphernalia."
Despite this troubling record, Zhukovskyy maintained a valid Massachusetts license as well as a commercial trucking license.
Emerging details surrounding the New Hampshire crash has prompted Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles chief Erin Deveney to resign.
"The state Registry of Motor Vehicles chief has resigned over the case of the trucker charged with killing seven bikers in New Hampshire, after the agency admitted it failed to suspend the 23-year-old driver's truck license following a drunken driving arrest in Connecticut last month," according to the Boston Herald.
The fallen riders all belonged to the Marine JarHeads motorcycle club, which has established a GoFundMe for victim and family support.

yes.....but not in the way you would think?
I was in lafayette picking up the new to me trackbike, stopped at brewery for a couple of brews, really only two, tripped on my way out. I was holding baby too...did not drop, fall on, or even scare the child.
I'd venture to say your innate dad reaction in keeping the child steady probably contributed to the jacking of the ankle. Took one for the squad.
That's definitely a (lower deck) passenger cabin.
This is awesome. And I love the guys' screen name, though I suspect most here won't remember what it's from.
My company got acquired and merged - i got a nice payout for my shares. Looks like the partner in the merger doesn't have "me" or my team so we should all be good except a lot more work.
Baby will be here in a month or so - getting ready.
Woah, that came up fast.
picking up the new Tom Delong book?
Long day. Maybe heavy pour tonight.
We hired a new person for our team maybe 2 months ago.
We only recently found out she has a very long history with HR and other coworkers.
She is completely overwhelmed by what happens in our department.
She has a very strong type A personality and does not take feedback well even when asking for it if it is not what she wants to hear.
Recently she has been causing strife within our team, including verbally attacking me when in a closed door discussion with our boss.
We have been instructed to take notes and document everything, in case lawyers get involved.
Her husband works for a different department and told his boss he had to leave early because it might be his wife's last day at the bank.
He's been gone that long.
