'Tenet' Delayed Again to August; 'The SpongeBob Movie' Heading to CBS All Access in 2021
Well, we can scratch July as the month the Summer Movie Season officially began. Tenet has just been delayed for a second time and I'm now waiting for Disney to announce that Mulan has been pushed back as well.
Warner Bros. made the announcement yesterday. Tenet (watch its second trailer here) has been pushed from July 31 to August 12, 2020. The 10th anniversary re-release of Inception has moved back into Tenet's old July 31 slot.
In a statement, a WB spokesperson said:
"Warner Bros. is committed to bringing 'Tenet' to audiences in theaters, on the big screen, when exhibitors are ready and public health officials say it's time. In this moment what we need to be is flexible, and we are not treating this as a traditional movie release. We are choosing to open the movie mid-week to allow audiences to discover the film in their own time, and we plan to play longer, over an extended play period far beyond the norm, to develop a very different yet successful release strategy."
Honestly, this makes sense given that most American theaters (especially the ones in major cities) aren't open yet. But the rest of the world is slowly re-opening and, with no new movies to show, theaters have been showing classics. Jurassic Park topped the box office last weekend for the first time in 27 years. We are living in a strange, but interesting time for cinema.
Also on the move is The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run. The animated film has been pulled from a theatrical release and will instead hit premium digital rental services in early 2021 before going to CBS All Access as an exclusive original movie.
Marc DeBevoise, chief digital officer at ViacomCBS and president and CEO of ViacomCBS Digital, issued the following statement regarding the move:
"We are thrilled to have The Spongebob Movie: Sponge on the Run, a premier, first-run movie from one of ViacomCBS' biggest brands, join CBS All Access' expanding slate of franchise content from across ViacomCBS. This launch will be perfectly timed with our continued expansion and planned rebranding of the service in early 2021, as we welcome SpongeBob and the gang from Bikini Bottom to the service in the biggest way possible."
CBS All Access is undergoing a major corporate rebranding to make it more of a ViacomCBS streaming service to compete with such heavy hitters as Peacock, HBO Max, and Disney+. The revamp will include programming from Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, BET, and MTV as well as numerous Paramount films.
2021 is a long time to keep an animated film featuring SpongeBob in the can, but here's hoping that when it does arrive it will be funnier than his last outing.
Did WB make the right move in delaying Tenet for a second time? What film will actually get you back into theaters? Tell us in the comments!

ColumnAn interview with designer Eileen Fisher.
Threads, seams, and sewing machines were familiar and fascinating for Eileen Fisher from a young age. Growing up with a mother who often handmade her brother and sisters' clothing, Fisher enjoyed filtering through fabrics and selecting her favorites to be worked into her wardrobe. When she found herself more academically enamored by her college roommate's interior design projects than her math major assignments, she knew design must be a part of her future and focus.
Fisher's attraction and loyalty to fabrics stemmed from her early years, and has now evolved into one of the grounding forces behind Eileen Fisher, the brand. "You'll notice we use a lot of the same fabrics over the years. We get really hooked on fabrics, we love the way they feel but we change the proportions to make them feel modern and to give women different ways to mix it up," Fisher tells EcoSalon. Using this design approach allows women to buy consciously, adding to their wardrobe with staple pieces that will last, in style and quality.
It's intriguing to realize that the design process for Fisher is integral to extending the lifetime of her pieces. "We've never used prints – we value rich color and textures in quality fabrics over patterns and prints. Avoiding prints helped me think about simplicity and how it worked – because when a garment is patterned, it becomes the 'thing' and can disguise poor quality," Fisher explains. Instead, if the concentration is on investing in fabrics, garments will flourish and also maintain their versatility as prints and patterns tend to come and go instantaneously via the land of trends.
For Fisher, she believes her sustainable mind can be somewhat attributed to her roots. "Sustainability goes back to growing up in the Midwest. We didn't waste things. I don't like waste so I think clothes should last a really long time," she says. Whether it be long-lasting, durable fabrics, or thinking more creatively in the way you style pieces, simple shapes make the Eileen Fisher world go 'round. Now a core value for the company, Fisher was inspired by the Japanese aesthetic through her various travels to the country.
"I was very interested in the kimono because for 1,100 years in Japan, people wore nothing but the kimono shape and I thought that was really interesting – what made it timeless, what made it last so long?" This simple art philosophy that has filtered down into Eileen Fisher's collection is somewhat refreshing and calming amidst the world's chaos.
Global connections are undoubtedly part of the patchwork behind Eileen Fisher; with a team that sources wools from Italy, silks from China, collaborates with artisan groups in India, and develops fabrics in Japan, the accepting and open-armed nature of Eileen Fisher gives it an edge amongst the larger womenswear brands of today.
This spring Eileen Fisher will debut their first piece made in Africa – hand-loomed by a women's collective in Ethiopia, and for Fall 2012, they will launch their first item made in Spain – artisanal natural-dyed merino knit gloves. In an effort to support the local American culture, Eileen Fisher also produces their garments in NYC and Los Angeles. Literally a quilted work of art, Eileen Fisher is a collage of global cooperative efforts that respect local techniques from the world's artisans and producers.
Directly in line with the acknowledging, thought-driven philosophy behind the brand, Fisher asked Julie Ribuner, the sweater knit designer who has been leading The Peru Project for the past few years, to take over for her and answer EcoSalon's questions.
Born in 2005, this Project evolved out of an interest to boost Eileen Fisher's use of organic fibers and materials. "After researching options, we turned to Peru because we saw an opportunity to participate in a holistic program – not only do they grow organic cotton locally, they spin the yarn and knit the sweaters creating a sustainable local story," says Ribuner.
After instigating this venture with one iconic shape – the original box top in a simple reverse jersey stitch – Eileen Fisher has expanded the designs and production in Peru each season, due to their customers' positive reaction. "Our work in Peru supports the local community – workers are paid fair-trade wages and they collectively reinvest capital into the community," Ribuner adds.
The above video captures the authenticity and beauty of this project.
Another fascinating project led by sweater knit designer Mimi Wong, is built around yak yarn.
"The sweater knit design team was captivated by the beautiful story of Yaks and the nomadic herders of the remote Qinghai-Tibetan plateau," Wong says.
For these Tibetans, the yak is at the center of their livelihoods, providing them with fibers, shelter, clothing, milk, and yogurt, while also being used in farming and for transportation. With a body makeup designed to survive in frigid, high altitudes, these animals' long hair and thick overcoat sheds naturally once each year in the springtime. This super-soft-cashmere-like fiber is then spun into yarn. For Eileen Fisher, they blend their un-dyed yak yarn with merino to maintain its luxe touch.
Eileen Fisher appears to be taking on a younger edge as of late, but maybe it's less about the garments, and more about the styling. "As a designer, I think my perspective can shift, but I hold onto the core values of simplicity, comfort, ease, versatility and being drawn to beautiful fabrics," Fisher says.
In an emergence of design that is in-the-now and transcends time, Eileen Fisher's cooperative design team seems to really be finding their groove in balancing these distinct angles.
So what story does Eileen Fisher hope to share with the world?
"I guess it's really thinking about eco and sustainability in a more holistic way," Fisher says.
On a practical level, The brand offers wardrobe basics, like organic jeans and organic tees, or a pencil skirt made from recycled garments, but also luxurious silks that are made in a factory that uses fewer chemicals, less water, and less energy. However, for Fisher it's about moving beyond simply being organic and integrating organic fabrics into your designs.
When framed this way, the future of fashion from a holistic approach could prove beneficial for people and the planet. And we hope Fisher's groundwork is something upcoming designers will embrace and continue to evolve.


Rain is a condition that for some people hinder the work. In order to keep the activity going on, we use a rain coat or umbrella. What if we want to still be able to indulge in the rain without leaving the stylish aspect? Isabrella is an answer. This products from Ofess is managed to put the function and style together. Isabrella 0% is the umbrella that serves to protect the rain, but unlike ordinary umbrellas, Isabrella packed to be practical and stylish when taken.
When not in use, Isabrella 0% can be folded and rolled, and inserted in a practical package that looks more like a bottle of wine rather than an umbrella. The impression that umbrella is reducing our style and performance soon disappear with Isabrella. With its attractive, Isabrella is one of the accessories that can support your style. Want to keep your style when it rains? Prepare Isabrella.

Renewable Grid Integration and Microgrid Control Technology is the Future of Renewable Energy
Amanda Bowman
Texas Tech University expert available to discuss new renewable energy options.
With Texas expecting another scorching summer and the potential for rolling blackouts increasing due to strain on the electric grid, the need to focus on renewable energy options is front and center.
A Texas Tech University renewable energy expert knows what has to be done to have wind and solar energy reach its full potential.
Beibei "Helen" Ren
Beibei "Helen" Ren, joint director of Dynamic Intelligent Systems, Control and Optimization (DISCO) research group and an assistant professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, specializes in renewable energy grid integration and microgrid control. Her microgrid control technology received the 2017 TechConnect National Innovation Award. She is currently working toward making her lab a net zero-energy lab, a pilot project to provide insights for net zero-energy communities to improve the community resilience and energy independence.
Ren, with her collaborator Qing-Chang Zhong, the founder of the Chicago-based start-up SYNDEM, is developing enabling power electronics technologies to unify the integration of renewables in a stable and reliable way to achieve autonomous power balance between sources and loads with minimum human intervention and communication.
Beibei "Helen" Ren, joint director of Dynamic Intelligent Systems, Control and Optimization (DISCO) research group and assistant professor of mechanical engineering, (806) 834-6692 or beibei.ren@ttu.edu
Renewables and microgrids are alternative solutions to address the energy crisis, sustainability and environmental issues, but challenges exist for the integration of these non-dispatchable sources to the grid.
The future power systems with high-penetration of renewable energy sources will be power electronics-based instead of electric machines-based.
Advanced power electronics control technologies will play an important role for the integration of renewable energy sources to the current grid system to guarantee the stability of the whole system and avoid blackouts.
The SYNDEM (Synchronized and Democratized) architecture for the next generation of smart grids, which was proposed by Ren's collaborator, Qing-Chang Zhong, will empower all power electronics-interfaced suppliers and loads to behave like virtual synchronous machines so they can seamlessly integrate with the grid to actively take part in the regulation of system frequency and voltage in the same way as conventional synchronous machines do.

Q: Coloring cells in a table redux: Vertical and horizontal bars hidden in most views/zooms When using \cellcolor or \rowcolor to shade a cell (or row of cells) in a table, the vertical and horizontal separators become randomly obscured or hidden when viewing the PDF.  This is true for Chrome, Acrobat, and TexStudio's built-in PDF viewer.
I am required to comply with a style guide, and am allowed to use Word (!) or Tex, but the product must be a PDF.  The style guide was given in Word, with a table with a shaded top row of cells.  I am attempting to re-create this with LaTeX, but the PDF never renders well.  The vertical and top horizontal bars around the shaded cells appear and disappear depending on zoom level.  For example, see the images below, from three different zoom levels:
Zoom level 1:

Zoom level 2:

Zoom level 3:

After searching online and seeing several other posts about this, I employed and compiled many of them into this MWE.  Zero of the six options work or render consistently across all zoom levels.
I have tried: tabular, tabularx, using a hack via a one-column "multicolumn," hhline, etc.  Please see the MWE code below.
If anyone has an idea of how to shade a cell in a table without these rendering issues, please help!

It may be summertime but that doesn't mean that sometimes, you just want a nice hearty pot pie. Any season is good for it! I grew up right next to a Marie Callendar's and while my parents weren't too keen on us going out for food, every once in a while during high school and when I was back home from college on breaks, my friends and I would mosey on over if we were hanging out at my place. It was easy to do - cross the street and you can find yourself with American "comfort" food. Something that we had had in the house often were the frozen mini pot pies that Marie Callendar's makes; that was an easy favorite growing up (hush about the sodium content!) but nothing beat having it fresh from the restaurant.
I've always wanted to make it myself though, and it took a long time to find the occasion to because I wanted to do everything from scratch. Yes, even the crust. There was also the matter of getting the correct bakeware; I'm a bit particular about my ramekins. Pot pie also turned out to be one of Duc's favorite things to have so the pressure was on. We finally put one together after finding the perfect dish, and it was glorious. Flaky, buttery crust enveloping a creamy, loaded center...yes. Follow the recipe below for this chicken pot pie from scratch.
This is the longest part of the recipe process. The prepwork always seems to be. Is this why people have prep cooks? Anyhow, dice and chop everything as needed. I used rotisserie chicken breasts from Costco because I wanted to get their skin's roasted flavor in the meat but you can use your own poached breasts as long as they are cooked prior to adding to the pot pie. Prep the pie crust accordingly and refrigerate. I would say you should do this before starting the other prepwork so they can finish at the same time.
In a large pot, add 3 tbsps of the butter with carrots, celery, and onion on medium heat. Sweat them out until the celery and onion are barely translucent but haven't browned. Add garlic salt, pepper, and potato with remaining butter. Melt down until potato have gotten translucent around the edges. While you're waiting on that, heat up 3 cups of chicken broth in a small saucepan. Into the large vegetable pot, add in 1/2 cup of flour and stir rapidly to remove lumps. It may look like stuffing.
Pre-heat oven to 375°F. To the large pot, add in whole milk slowly and hot broth, stirring the whole time. You'll want to let this simmer on medium low heat, covered, for 10-20 minutes until it's the right consistency you prefer. When ready, add in peas, corn, chicken, parsley, and thyme.
While the pot is simmering, you can always take out the pie crust and prep it by rolling it out. I used a 1 1/2 quart bakeware dish for my pot pie. I lined it with the bottom crust, put it into the pre-heated oven for about 5 minutes, and then poured in the filling. You'll have plenty of filling left over by the way. Then I placed the top crust on top, used fork tines to crimp and seal the edges. If desiring a golden brown finish, brush the top of the crust with an egg wash. DON'T forget to slice a few vents on the top crust for hot air to escape! I nearly did, whoops.
Pop the pot pie into the oven for 40-50 minutes; the crust should be a golden brown. When ready to remove, let it sit out for several minutes to cool a little. The interior will be extremely hot. Enjoy!


From one Colorado girl to another, thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Disney's Animal Kingdom has come alive at night with new sights and sounds throughout out the park and new unique entertainment options to enjoy. Plus, Guests can experience some old favorites, such as Kilimanjaro Safaris, Expedition Everest and even the Tree of Life in a new way. Just like in nature, the park is a complete different experience after dark! There has been no indication that the nighttime hours at Disney's Animal Kingdom will be seasonal or temporary. However, park hours currently are only extended into the evening into September. Based on my experiences planning previous trips, it is very common for park hours to be changed and extended as my trip has approached. So I recommend that you keep an eye on the park hours and the Disney Parks Blog over the next few months for updates as your trip gets closer!
Please let us know if you have any other questions as you continue to prepare for your trip. T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!

Some lectures and tutorials scheduled to take place in the Human Sciences Building have been moved to new locations due to remedial work to the building since the switchboard fire in March.
As remedial work continues on the Human Sciences Building (201E and 201N) following last week's switchboard fire – and more spaces become available for reoccupation – the following steps have been taken to ensure the building is safe.
Immediately after the fire last Thursday morning, the building was checked for possible fire-induced asbestos contamination, and given the all-clear. The work was carried out by a WorkSafe-licensed asbestos assessor from asbestos specialists ATL Group.
The building was then cleaned (including horizontal surfaces and inside windows) under the direction of Contaminated Site Solutions, a company that specialises in post-fire cleaning services.
All remedial work has been led by Property Services with oversight from the Incident Management Team (IMT), and support from expert external contractors. The University's Health, Safety and Wellbeing team has continually reviewed all aspects of the work and has endorsed the approach taken.
Any remaining areas of the building that are still off-limits are closed not because they pose a contamination risk but because they are internal spaces that require mechanical ventilation, which is not yet available.
If you have any queries concerning the state of the building please direct them to Emmett Mackle, Associate Director Facilities.
All offices on external walls are available as normal. Please open windows and leave doors ajar when in the office to assist with air flow and natural ventilation.
PhD students whose offices are in internal rooms have been moved to 201e level 6 external offices.
Graduate Teaching Assistants with offices in internal rooms have been moved to 201e level 6 rooms 657, 655, and 651.
Staff, PhD students and GTAs will be able to briefly enter internal offices to collect any research materials or items urgently needed, but will not be able to stay.
Tutor consultation rooms have been relocated to level 6 rooms 650, 652, 656, 643.
A new meeting room has been set up in room 661 (capacity approximately 12-15); this is being added to the Room Bookings system.
The Tuakana space has been relocated to level 6 room 660.
The tearoom (Rooms 802/4) is available for use.
The Level 4 Student Hub (informal student study space), Arts Students' Centre, Student Engagement, Assignment Centre are all open as usual.
The Media & Communication TV Studio (Black Box), undergraduate edit suites (154) and the Macintosh lab (160) are available as usual.
The Arts Graduate Study Centre is open for normal hours.
The Anthropology Spatial Analysis Lab has been relocated to Level 6 room 644.
Meeting rooms (807 and 401) and internal and therefore not available. A replacement meeting room is being set up on level 6 of the building.
Computer Labs 259 and 151: alternative locations are being identified for scheduled classes. Students are being directed to Arts labs in the Fale Pasifika, building 207 room 302 (CLL), Māori Studies and to the Kate Edger Information Commons. Limited class usage can take place in lab 151.
The level 3 student hub (informal study area, computer and print stations, lockers) is not accessible at all due to lack of ventilation.
The Anthropology DNA lab, Drama rehearsal space and Arts storeroom on level 3 are not accessible at all due to lack of ventilation. An alternative location is being identified for Drama.

Австрійська Рив'єра (, , , ) — прибережна смуга колишнього Австрійського Примор'я, землі Габсбурзької корони, які до 1921, тягнулися вздовж північно-східного узбережжя Адріатики.

Австрійська Рив'єра охоплювала прибережні райони прилеглих до портового міста Трієст (). Істрійське південне узбережжя Трієсту є частиною гірської системи Крас з численними дрібними прибережними островами (наприклад, Бріуни) і тепер є частиною італійського муніципалітету Муггія () і на півдні є частиною Словенії і Хорватії. Берег на північ від Трієсту частково скелястий, і частково піщаний, з островом Градо. Він зараз є частиною автономного регіону Італії — Фріулі-Венеція-Джулія. Узбережжя має чарівний пейзаж і цілорічний м'який клімат.

За часів Стародавнього Риму на цьому терені було засновано Акуїлею.

У Середньовіччі, велика частина узбережжя, мало венеціанські поселення. У 1382 році, італійський Трієст був приєднаний до Габсбурзької монархії, яка контролювала велику частину внутрішніх районів, а більшість малих прибережних рибальських селищ залишалися частиною Венеціанської Республіки.

Трієст перетворився на важливий порт і центр торгівлі і у 1719 отримав статус вільного порту і на далі розвивався як основний торговельний порт і центр суднобудування Габсбурзької Австрії. У 1815 році, після наполеонівських війн, всі прибережні села стали частиною нової Австрійської імперії. Завершення будівництва Австрійської Південної залізниці Відень — Трієст в 1857 році не тільки сприяло подальшому розвитку торгівлі між двома містами, але й принесло верхній клас віденського суспільства до м'яких зим Рив'єри.

Трієст перетворився на місто-космополіт, його відвідували художники, музиканти, поети і письменники з усієї Австрійської імперії (згодом Австро-Угорщини) та інших частин Європи. Найближчі прибережні міста і села перетворилися на улюблені місця відпочинку для багатих і відомих.

У 1850 році Лошинь стала літньою резиденцію імператорської сім'ї Габсбургів, а в 1860 році, замок Мірамаре було завершено для ерцгерцога Максиміліана.

У 1883 році пляж курорту на острові Бріуни було створено, а в 1904 році Австрійський журнал Рив'єра (Österreichische Riviera Zeitung ) було вперше опубліковано в Пулі.

У 1921, після Першої світової війни Австрійська Рив'єра стала частиною Італії і була відрізана від деяких з своїх внутрішніх районів. У 1920-х була спроба відродити Австро-Італійську Рив'єру, але пишність її розквіту зникла. Французька та Італійська Рив'єри в західному Середземномор'ї перехопили ініціативу.

У 1945 р. Трієст, разом з невеликою ділянкою прилеглого узбережжя став незалежною Вільною територією Трієст. У 1954 році, Вільна територія була розділена між Італією та Югославією. Трієсті, Градо, Систіана і Муггія відійшли до Італії.

Під час Холодної війни федеральна земля Каринтія в Австрії, розпочала називати район озера Вертерзеє «Австрійською Рив'єрою».

Birth, Death and Family History Searches
Summary (optional) We wish you every success in tracing your family tree, we know it can be a long and time-consuming process. The borders of counties and registration districts have changed many times, making it difficult sometimes to trace the record you require.
If you are in any doubt where to send your certificate applications, please contact your local Register Office for advice. Birth, marriage and death certificate application forms are available below for you to download, complete and post with the relevant fee.
If you are unsure of any of the information on the form, please include as many details as you can. Index references that you may have found in your research (e.g. Vol & Qtr. Details) do not usually apply to locally held records but can still help in identifying a register entry.
Marriage records can be particularly difficult to trace, so if you are not sure of the place of marriage, please give any known addresses at the time and fathers' details.
General Searches
Register Offices do not have the resources to undertake searches of an indefinite or protracted nature. Usually a search in the indexes covering a period not exceeding 5 years will be made, but only where accurate details have been given. If a wider search is required it is necessary for the applicant or someone on his/her behalf to make a General Search in the indexes.
By arrangement with the Superintendent Registrar, and payment of the appropriate fee, a person may have access to the indexes of births, marriages and deaths (but not to the registers themselves) for up to six hours.
A certificate of any entry identified may be obtained on completion of an application form and payment of the appropriate fee.
To download a Birth, Death or Marriage Certificate Application form, please click on the attachments below.
North Wales Births, Marriages and Deaths
Although enquiries for birth death and marriage certificates can be dealt with at the local Register Office, you may wish to view indexes and obtain reference numbers yourself. This can be done through a growing number of websites. North Wales BMD website was launched in August 2003 and contains - although not yet complete - Birth, Marriage and Death indexes from 1837 to 1950 for the North Wales area. Researchers can make use of the search techniques in the website to identify the names they are looking for, and obtain reference numbers from which the Registrars can supply the birth, marriage and death certificates.

Welcome to the Emergency Medicine course! Whether your contribution to medicine will be made in Emergency Medicine or another specialty, emergencies occur in all specialties and in life (e.g. "Is there a doctor on the plane?"). Thus, it is vitally important for you to have the tools to deal with common emergencies that you are likely to encounter during your residency or even in life.
The 4 week Emergency Medicine course will introduce the student to emergency medicine and the initial management strategies for common life threatening emergencies. Students will develop an approach to common undifferentiated patient complaints and a practical skill set in: acid-base emergencies, basic airway management, electrocardiogram interpretation, and electrolyte emergencies. Students will also complete Basic Life Support (BLs) and Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) training. During the week, there are daily didactic sessions as well as procedure labs and high fidelity simulations. Clinical shifts are spread across a variety of practice settings (adult and pediatrics) and offer a broad exposure. Students work closely with emergency medicine faculty and residents to identify sick patients and develop differential diagnoses and management plans. Students also have the opportunity to participate in procedures and trauma resuscitations and Ground EMS ridealongs.
· Introduce initial management strategies for common life threatening emergencies, including a systematic approach to the priorities of resuscitation.
· Develop an approach to commonly encountered undifferentiated patient complaints, including abdominal pain, altered mental status, chest pain, and shortness of breath.
· Develop a practical skill set in: acid-base emergencies, advanced cardiac life support, basic airway management, basic life support, electrocardiogram interpretation, and electrolyte emergencies.
· Perform focused histories and physicals to develop ranked differential diagnoses for common complaints (abdominal pain, altered mental status, chest pain, and shortness of breath) that include high morbidity and mortality conditions and guide the use of diagnostic tests.
· Perform concise, clear patient presentations to faculty and consultant physicians.
· Employ knowledge support tools such as evidence based diagnostic criteria, management guidelines, and point of care information resources to inform patient care.
· Integrate into the Emergency Care Team and employ flexible communication strategies with patients, families, and all members of the Emergency Care Team (e.g. physicians, nurses, paramedics, technicians, and prehospital providers).
We welcome interested visiting students and invite you to spend an exciting, educational month with us! All visiting students must have completed core rotations in Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, Neurology, Psychiatry, Obstetrics, and Gynecology. Visiting student spots are available in June, July, August, and September. All rotations follow the VUSM academic calendar and visiting students must be available for the duration of the rotation.
Interested students should apply through the AAMC's VSLO (visiting student learning opportunities). Click here to apply Our course will open in VSLO on February 15th and we will begin accepting applications on March 15th.
Emergency Medicine is an amazing specialty and due to the increasing number of residency applications, we cannot automatically guarantee you an interview for a residency position after completing an away rotation with us.
We here at Vanderbilt University Medical Center truly value diversity. The Diversity Scholars Visiting Student Program is designed to expose medical students from underrepresented in medicine (URM) backgrounds to our clinical departments and foster interest in Vanderbilt residency training programs.
This program would provide financial assistance for current fourth-year medical students to complete a four-week clerkship at Vanderbilt in one of our outstanding clinical departments. Eligible students must be in good standing at an accredited medical school in the US. Ultimate acceptance into this program is dependent upon acceptance for an away clerkship by the registrar and the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine Office of Enrollment Services. Accepted students will be provided with monies to offset application fees, travel to Nashville, and housing costs during their four-week clerkship. Any questions about this program should be directed to the Office for Diversity Affairs at (615) 343-8299. Click here to complete the application.

Fish steamed in parchment paper, also known as fish en papillote, is a foolproof way to dish up tender fish. Wrapped in a parchment pouch, the fish is steamed in its own juices and the juices of anything else you add to the mix, resulting in a flakey fillet that is jam-packed with flavor. The process is simple, quick, and leaves you with very minimal cleanup! This is one of my favorite ways to cook fish along with grilling on a cedar plank.
There are several ways to prepare parchment packets; I used to seal my packets by brushing the edges with a diluted egg wash, then fold the edges over one another to create a secure packet with no air vents. But after playing around, I've realized that the "twist and tie" method brings the same results to the table without the fuss. I'll be more than happy to bring the sealed-packet method to the blog if I get enough requests! But until then, let's stick to my go-to.
1. Prepare your food. This all depends on what recipe you're following, or how your dressing your fish, but before you prepare your parchment, get your fish seasoned; have any sauces you might be using ready; and have your veggies washed, cut, and ready to place.
2. Prepare your parchment. Tear/cut parchment into segments — one segment per fish. The size of the parchment depends on the size of your fillets, but you should be fine with a piece of parchment that measures approx. 13 inches wide. Lay each segment down on a flat surface.
3. Place your food. If you're using veggies that work well as planks, like asparagus or zucchini spears, set them down at the center of your parchment paper. Set down your fish and top with your wet component (this might be a sauce, olive oil, knobs of butter, wine, or freshly squeezed citrus). Place any additional toppings you're using (grape tomatoes, olives, capers, artichokes, etc.), and a slice or two of a citrus fruit (optional, but adds great flavor).
4. Fold your packets. Once everything is in place, take one of the sides of your parchment and fold it over the fish. After that, grab the other side, and fold it over enclosing the fish. Twist the ends of the parchment one at a time, securing each one by tying butchers twine around it.
5. Baking the fish. Baking time depends on the thickness of your fillet. The rule I follow is to simply measure (or guesstimate) the thickness of the fillet before baking, then bake in the oven at 425 degrees F for 4-6 minutes per 1/2-inch of thickness. I usually find myself baking my fish for 12-15 minutes. If you have a meat thermometer, you can stick it into one of your fillets if you're unsure — if your fillet is between 140-145 degrees F, you're good to go. Fish should be 145 degrees F, but since protein continues to cook once removed from the heat, it will hit 145 degrees F by the time you dig in. The last thing you want to do is overcook your fish.

Home / All Coins / 2013 September 25 - 29 US Coins Signature Auction - Long Beach Auction #1189 / Lot #6235
1864 1C L On Ribbon PR65 Red NGC. Snow-PR2....
1864 Indian Cent, PR65 Red
L On Ribbon, Snow-PR2
Very Rare Issue, Ex: Norweb
1864 1C L On Ribbon PR65 Red NGC. Snow-PR2. Ex: Norweb. The 1864 L on Ribbon proof is one of the classic rarities in the U.S. cent series. Only 20-40 examples are believed to have been struck, just 20 pieces of which are traced today. The fascinating history of these pieces was published in Rick Snow's book The Flying Eagle and Indian Cent Attribution Guide, Vol. 2: 1859-1869. The die pair of the present coin is listed as Snow-PR2 in that reference. There is an obverse die line (as struck) on Liberty's neck (under the ear) that matches the diagnostics given by Walter Breen in his 1977 book Walter Breen's Encyclopedia of United States and Colonial Proof Coins: 1722-1977. Since that time additional discoveries have been made which shed new light on this enigmatic issue.
The initial proof delivery of the 1864 L on Ribbon cent was 10-20 examples. These coins were either held as die trials or sold to collectors in a random manner. Mint officials probably considered the addition of Longacre's initial to be a minor change that was not worthy of special consideration. It was not until a few years later that the existence of these proofs became known, by which time the advanced collectors who desired examples could not locate the coins. When Henry Linderman began his first term as Mint Director in 1867, the proof 1864 L on Ribbon Cent had already become a hotly desired numismatic item. During Linderman's first term (1867-1869), and continuing for a few years thereafter, many numismatic delicacies were restruck at the Mint. Far from being considered pariahs, the coins restruck during the "Linderman" period are some of the most sought-after issues in all of U.S. numismatics!
At least 10 (and perhaps more) additional 1864 L on Ribbon proofs were struck sometime around 1871, including the present coin. Rick Snow is credited with this discovery by matching the reverse die of the present example with the regular issue proof dies of that year. The unique die lines on the reverse are the same as on proofs from 1869 through 1871, although the 1869 and 1870 proofs were from earlier die states.
Virtually nothing was known about the proof 1864 L on Ribbon Cent until Breen published his work in 1977. Breen mistakenly identified the coins with the diagnostics of the present specimen as the only true proofs. This created a dilemma for the owners and sellers of the other proof examples. Most catalogers described the proofs that did not match Breen's diagnostics as copper die trials, or they conveniently overlooked Breen's research. It was not until the Bowers and Merena Higgins Sale of 1984 that Breen relented and proclaimed that there was a second die pair for the proof 1864 L on Ribbon (the original Snow-PR1 dies). Presently nine examples of that die pair are known. In 1997, Rick Snow identified a third die pair (Snow-PR3) when a unique specimen was offered in Bowers and Merena's Halpern and Warner Sale. Only 10 examples of the Snow- PR2 Indian cent are known, bringing the total to 20 specimens known for all three varieties. Recent auction sales of the Snow-PR2 include the PR65 Red and Brown PCGS coin in lot 3146 of the Pittsburgh Signature (Heritage, 10/2011), which realized $161,000.
The present coin is a spectacular Gem that traces its history to the fabled Norweb Collection. A custom holder from Capital Plastics accompanies the lot, along with a copy of the Norweb catalog by Bowers and Merena (10/1987), where the coin was described in lot 156. It exhibits sharply detailed design elements throughout, with the L on the ribbon boldly delineated. The devices are frosty, creating some elements of contrast with the deeply reflective fields. The well-preserved surfaces retain their original red color with a few highlights of gold. Only a few microscopic specks of carbon are evident. Listed on page 115 of the 2014 Guide Book. Census: 1 in 65 Red, 0 finer (8/13).

Q: I have a segmentation fault that I can't seem to find in C Hey I have a segmentation fault somewhere when I assign child. It seems to be in my for loop specifically in my add method when i==2.
When you compile the code, you input your name, the function, and "father('name of parent', 'name of child')" or respectively the same format for the mother. There are only parents no other child besides the root child.
UPDATE: I put my variables inside main.
For Example Input:
Brandon

add

father(a,Brandon)

Expected result:
father

a

Brandon

But it's:
father

a

                }
        }
        return *temp;
}

A: The problem is the scan function which I recommend by default should return an empty structure, for clarity. I have included some revised code below.
Insert to the beginning of the function:
node ret;

And then instead of always returning *temp at the end, use the following to conclude the function:
if (temp != NULL) {
    ret=*temp;
}

return ret;

Also some minor changes along with this are needed in the add function, beginning with child now defined as follows:
node child, *parent = NULL;

...

child = scan(root, pch);

child.left = parent;

Good monitors and TVs for gaming
Isn't a display just a display? Well, if that was the case, we'd routinely use TVs as monitors and monitors as TVs.
By Currys
To help you decide whether you need a monitor or a TV for gaming, and to help you get a better feel for the landscape, take a look at our guide.
TVs vs monitors
Monitors are designed to be used up close. They're better, in the main, at displaying very fine images - like text. TVs are designed to be viewed from afar. They tend to favour size, and almost always come with built-in speakers, making them good for social occasions. Monitors with inbuilt speakers are rare.
However, the majority of monitors have better input lag than TVs.
What is input lag?
Input lag describes the delay between moving your mouse and having the input registering on your screen. Or moving a thumbstick on a game controller, and seeing your character moving on the screen.
TVs come with game modes designed to drop the input lag when you're gaming. But monitors still have the edge here, as they can keep input lag low and visual fidelity exceptionally high, even close up.
On the other hand, TVs tend to output in higher resolutions. Why? Well, you need the extra pixels when you're sitting further away. It also makes more sense to output at a higher resolution when the surface area is bigger (the differences are more discernible).
That's why 4K TVs (which display a horizontal resolution of approximately 4,000 pixels) are cheaper than 4K monitors, as they're more regularly made.
TVs are also more likely to have HDR 10 support. HDR – high dynamic range – is a technology that increases the brightness in light areas of an image, and the darkness in dark areas of an image, creating a bigger contrast between the two.
So, in a nutshell: monitors are great for close, very fine viewing. TVs are better for sheer spectacle.
Good gaming TVs
LG OLED 55 B8
OLED is one of the newest technologies to come to the TV market.
Unlike LED TVs and LCD TVs, an OLED doesn't use a light at the back of the display to light a scene. Instead, each individual pixel lights itself. That means that when the screen goes black during a dark scene in a game, it's completely black. OLEDs, then, have pinpoint colour accuracy. However, they can be expensive.
That's where the B8 comes in - a quality OLED display that doesn't break the bank. The 55" screen is ideal for gamers, thanks to its low input lag (this hovers around 21 milliseconds, which is excellent), its four HDMI ports and outstanding colour accuracy.
Samsung NU7020
This 50-inch 4K Samsung TV is within almost any buyer's reach. Yes, it's an entry level model, but it natively displays 4K content and has HDR10 support. In short, games with high dynamic range will look fantastic.
Samsung has cut costs by offering 2 HDMI ports instead of 3, and using edge lighting instead of a full array of LED lights. Edge lighting is perfectly common, however - while blacks won't be as "black" as a TV that uses direct LEDs, edge lighting has a number of advantages, including avoiding the "halo" effect that some full LEDS produce.
Asus ROG Strix XG32VQ 32"
The Asus XG32VQ is not just a good gaming monitor, it's an incredible piece of viewing tech. It displays content at a resolution of 2560 x 1440, which means that, while it's not full 4K, picture quality will still take your breath away.
This is a part of the Republic of Gamers (ROG) Strix lineup that Asus has introduced, so you can rest assured it's a proper piece of hardware. The 32-inches of screen space are going to feel like they're engulfing you whole – games are going to look enormous.
The small stuff counts too: the ability to customise a special "light signature" is a neat touch, and lets you project a light beneath your screen.
For total immersion and an Asus seal of quality, the 32" ROG Strix is a good bet.

Trump Lawyer Running for Commonwealth Attorney in Fairfax
Posted on August 14, 2019	by Bryan J. Scrafford
In the lead up to the Democratic primary for Commonwealth Attorney in Fairfax County, there was a lot of talk about how the winner would be the next CA because there was no Republican running. It was actually discussed during some of the debates and there was a lot of hype about this year being the first Democratic primary for the position in 56 years. While it's still likely Steve Descano will win in November, conservatives have put forward a candidate as Jonathan Fahey has officially launched his campaign.
Fahey is technically running as an independent and used his official announcement to claim he's going to focus in on "public safety, not politics." He went on to paint himself as a moderate who has dedicated himself to public service and said he'll focus on gang violence and addressing the opioid crisis if elected.
While he's desperately trying to paint himself as an independent who won't being promoting a partisan agenda, he can't run from his time as general counsel for the Trump Administration's drug czar. Plus, several folks have pointed out he actually sought the Fairfax County Republican Committee's nomination while he was still collecting a government salary — a clear violation of the Hatch Act.
After Fahey's official campaign launch, Descano's campaign claimed the right wing attorney "has the support and financial backing of the local Republican party and fringe conservatives from both within, and well beyond, Fairfax County" and "Republican leaders rushed to gain the necessary signatures to place Fahey on the ballot as an independent in order to mislead voters." Descano also placed a lot of emphasis on Fahey's violation of the Hatch Act while he was still a federal government employee.
Of course, Fahey's not the only Trump Administration official who's violated the Hatch Act. Perhaps the most prominent example is Kellyanne Conway. Congress has actually been attempting to conduct an investigation into Conway's actions, but she's ignored subpoenas to appear before the House Oversight Committee. This shows how high ranking officials for Trump don't appear to respect the law — something you'd hope a candidate for Commonwealth Attorney would do. Combine that with how Fahey shares Attorney General William Barr's views on criminal justice and you get a prime example of why so many people are worried about the possibility of him being elected.
What's really interesting here is back in June, Tim Hugo and other local GOP leaders encouraged their supporters to vote for Ray Morrogh in the Democratic primary. John Frey, the Republican Clerk of the Court, for instance, claimed Morrogh's "a no nonsense prosecutor" who "tempers justice with mercy when appropriate." In other words, he appeared to realize Fairfax needs a Commonwealth Attorney who won't be pushing a radical right wing agenda. Fahey, however, appears to be pushing the policies of the extreme right that would send Fairfax backwards.
Perhaps realizing that some Republican leaning voters in Fairfax might appreciate the relatively moderate positions that Frey and Hugo highlighted back in June, Descano made it clear Fahey wouldn't be promoting those moderate sentiments once elected and his latest claims to be an "independent" are simply an attempt to fool the public into voting for him.
"Jonathan Fahey has never met a mandatory minimum he doesn't like, he has a narrow view of the criminal justice system, and he's not active in our community," Descano said in a statement. "If elected, his tough-on-crime policies would push marginalized communities to hide in fear from our criminal justice system, and the cycle of continued crime, increased poverty, and crumbling opportunity would continue to spread."
What will be interesting moving forward is seeing how former Morrogh supporters will respond to Fahey's candidacy. The Democratic primary wasn't the most cordial race ever and it's clear many folks were upset Descano received a lot of funding from outside Fairfax County. While Morrogh and his supporters have said the right thing publicly so far when asked about his candidacy after the primary, it's noticeable that several members of Morrogh's office were at Fahey's announcement and Morrogh apparently never responded when the Washington Post inquired about who he'd be supporting this November.
Descano definitely has the advantage heading into November, but the race for Commonwealth Attorney traditionally doesn't receive a lot of attention and turnout is already expected to be extremely low this year. As a result, Fahey could have a surprise victory if he's able to convince enough people he's a moderate while also inspiring the Republican base to get out to the polls.

New Brunswick ends eviction ban despite risks to tenants
by Naomi Gullison

Today the New Brunswick government is lifting the ban on tenant evictions. A Fredericton lawyer and tenant is speaking against lifting the ban and for better tenant rights in New Brunswick, topics that will be discussed at a panel on housing in the time of coronavirus co-hosted by the NB Media Co-op on June 17.
In an op-ed published by the Daily Gleaner on May 29, lawyer and Fredericton tenant Aditya Rao writes: "There seems to be light at the end of the tunnel as we contemplate reopening our province. But for many tenants in New Brunswick, that light is looking more like an oncoming train."
Rao points out that all provinces except Alberta continue to have an eviction moratorium in place, and that PEI, a province similar to ours in both population density and COVID-19 infection rates, has started a rent relief program to help subsidize rent for those who need it.
New Brunswick has had significant periods with no active reported cases, partially because New Brunswickers have been sheltering in place: something renters will no longer be able to do if they are evicted.
The Canadian Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) has been providing crucial support for Canadians, but Rao explains why the Higgs government should not simply expect New Brunswickers to rely on CERB support for rent payments, citing undocumented migrants and Canadians without social insurance numbers as groups that have fallen through the cracks of the CERB.
The Canadian Federation of Students has also been trying to bring to the attention of the federal government that international students studying in Canada should be eligible for the CERB as well as domestic students. Migrants who come to Canada on student visas are restricted from working more than 20 hours a week off-campus.
Those lucky enough to have support from their home countries can find that support reduced to up to half the original value depending on the exchange rate between the currency of their home country and the Canadian dollar. The differences in currency value between Canada and its allies have certainly been exacerbated by COVID-19, but paying the difference on their tuition in place of student loans or grants because of a recent change in exchange rates is a story many international students are familiar with.
Despite the province encouraging landlords to negotiate payment plans with tenants who are struggling, property owners such as Gorham Real Estate in Fredericton have made it clear in an email to its tenants at the start of the pandemic that they will continue to expect full payments on the usual schedule.
It is not practical to trust that for-profit entities will abide by "encouragement" to help New Brunswickers avoid the risk of increasing infections and, as Rao points out, to do so is to ignore the power imbalances that differentiate lease agreements from other forms of contracts.
Many people continue to be financially vulnerable despite the CERB. New Brunswick is already lacking bare-bones tenants' rights legislation such as eviction protection programs, rent control, protection for tenants associations, or housing rights acknowledgements.
If the province goes forward with its plans to lift the moratorium on evictions, it will be taking a gamble on losing the progress we have already made in the fight against the coronavirus. Now is not the time to be lifting the moratorium on evictions. The pandemic is still happening, and some landlords have not been following the measures recommended by the government to arrange alternate payment plans. Indeed large landlords like Gorham have put their efforts into maintaining the legitimacy of their current payment schedules and made clear to their tenants that the pandemic will not be viewed as a valid excuse for not paying rent.
The health and safety of New Brunswickers is at risk if the province continues with its current schedule to lift the moratorium on evictions.

Those Who Have Fallen into This Pit

The Morning Heresy
This is some unexpected good news: The Supreme Court, with John Roberts joining the liberals, blocks Louisiana's crazy anti-abortion law (for now) so that the state can have more than one single doctor who is authorized to actually perform abortions.
Trump tells the attendees at the National Prayer Breakfast, "I will never let you down." Nor will he give them up, nor will he run around and desert them.
In the village of Cheshire in the UK, a primary school cancels a kids' musical about Charles Darwin (Darwin Rocks) because some Christians complained. The decision is not going over well.
Natalia Pasternak and Carlos Orsi tout the launch of Brazil's Instituto Questão de Ciência (IQC) at Skeptical Inquirer online:
We could not have done it without the kind help of dear Barry Karr, CSI executive director, who went out of his way to advise us on how to start the institute, on how to navigate the tricky points of balancing credibility with financial support, and on the importance of building a committed skeptic community.
While dissing Trump's climate science denialism, The Washington Post editorial board also does a weird "both sides" move by poo-pooing the possibility of a Green New Deal because it could "vastly expand government rather than simply addressing the climate problem." But, like, there are other problems, right?
Julia Belluz reports on (and joins in) the lamentations over Netflix's planned Gwyneth Paltrow Goop series. What's to be done?
How a crackdown on celebrity woo — and its media enablers — might look isn't clear, but as their pseudoscience continues to grow like a cancer through new media platforms, it's something we're going to have to think about.
You got that right.In the middle of a measles epidemic, folks in Clark County, Washington and Portland, Oregon area all go, "Oh crap! We really screwed up. Gimme a jab!" as vaccine demand jumps 500 percent.
A Russian court sentences a man to six years in prison for the crime of "organizing the activities of a banned extremist organization," or in other words, being a Jehovah's Witness.
So this guy drives 24 hours from Missouri to Arizona to bludgeon his sister-in-law and her boyfriend to death with a hatchet and then burn their house down says he shouldn't get the death penalty because he did it to preserve the spiritual well-being of the woman's child…according to the tenets of Scientology. It's one of those times when you're like, "that's bull," and then you're like, "well, actually…"
Tara Isabella Burton at RNS considers evolving concepts of sin:
The early Christians had a term for this sense of responsibility: the creation of the kingdom of heaven on earth. … Jesus called his disciples to be the "light of the world."
Now, more and more of us — whatever our faith — are feeling called to do so.
Tax the churches! …through their parking lots.
I am utterly saddened by the death at 92 of former Rep. John Dingell, the longest serving Member of Congress in history, and perhaps most importantly, a freaking master of Twitter. Lordy I'm gonna miss him.
Steven Novella muses on how flat-Earthers represent "the perfect storm of self-deception":
[It] is probably also near-impossible to get through to someone once they are a dedicated flat-earther. The self-deception is constructed to immunize itself from refutation – that is part of the same process that gets them into the belief in the first place. At that point it is a religious belief, a cult even. It is a lesson and cautionary tale in the frailty of human cognition and emotion. We shouldn't miss the lesson by being simplistically dismissive of those who have fallen into this pit. There is something to understand here, something about the human condition.
