MiG-19PM Farmer E
by Tom Dungan
MiG-19PM
Trumpeter's 1/32 scale MiG-19PM Farmer E is available online from Squadron.com
The MiG-19 was the outcome of the Soviet program begun in 1948 to design and produce a supersonic fighter. By 1952 the development program had settled on designs descended from the MiG-17, but with 2 engines. By 1953, a speed of Mach 1.33 had been achieved using new AM-5F engines in a prototype, and production as the MiG-19 was begun in 1954.
The definitive MiG-19S (NATO code name "Farmer-C"), featured improved flight stability, armament of three 30mm cannon, provision for light bombs and rockets, and Mach 1.44 speed in a dive. Almost 2,300 aircraft of these initial series were built, and were used by the PVO (Air Defense Force), Frontal Aviation, as well as Warsaw Pact allies.
Next in line was the radar-equipped MiG-19P ("Farmer-B"), which added a primitive Izumrud radar in a lengthened nose. Gun armament was reduced to two 30mm cannon, retaining the light stores hardpoints.
The Soviet RS-2US (AA-1 "Alkali") air-to-air missile program had borne fruit in the meantime, and it was logical to upgrade the MiG-19P to accommodate this new technology. The resulting MiG-19PM ("Farmer-D") featured an improved Izumrud-2 radar in a nose that was again lengthened and fattened. Four APU-4 launch rails were provided for the AA-1 missiles, with each rail having an integral control antenna at the leading edge. Capacity to carry rockets and external tanks was retained, but the gun armament was removed. Production began in 1957, but only ran for 400-odd aircraft. All of the PM aircraft were issued to the PVO.
Other versions of the MiG-19 included the PMU with improved missile capability, the SV high-altitude interceptor, and numerous experimental rocket-assisted aircraft.
Altogether, some 3,700 aircraft in the MiG-19 family were built by the Soviet Union, which also licensed production to Poland (as the LiM-7) and Czechoslovakia. China copied the MiG-19S as the J-6, and exported it to several countries, notably Pakistan. Pakistani MiG-19's were modified to fire western AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles. China also developed a 2-seat trainer version (JJ-6), a use that was not required by the Soviet Union.
Maneuverability, and climb rate were the chief attributes of the MiG-19. As with most Soviet aircraft of the period, range and all-weather performance suffered. The use of two engines within the small airframe also created maintenance problems, and safety issues. Loss of one engine would generally damage the other engine. Fire was also a problem, due to pooling of fluids, and lack of heat-resistant protection.
In the end, the service life of the MiG-19 was cut short by the rapid pace of aircraft development, with its famous descendant, the MiG-21 replacing it on the production lines by 1959.
Trumpeter's 1/32 Scale MiG-19PM
Trumpeter has released an entire family of 1/32 MiG-19 derivatives, including the MiG-19S, the missile-equipped MiG-19PM, and the Chinese JJ-6 trainer. There is also a growing stable of 1/48 kits, which look like scaled-down copies of their larger brethren.
The MiG-19PM kit comes in the typical large, durable Trumpeter box. I really like these heavy-duty cardboard boxes as they prevent shelf wear. All parts are in plastic bags, and the clear parts are in a separate bag to prevent scuffing. The decal sheet is also sealed, and the resin parts for the two engines are protected in bubble wrap. Nice job.
The 16-page instructions are clear and detailed. It is clear which parts are used for which version (Soviet or Chinese). The only drawback is the lack of FS color references, although most parts are labeled as to their generic color.
The kit contains an ungodly number of sprues, many of which are common between the three Trumpeter kits. There are four (!) common sprues for the engine parts (plus the resin), five common sprues for the rear fuselage and wings, and four sprues specific to this version of the aircraft.
The kit comes with several sprues for the AA-1 missiles, as well as underwing stores which are not used on this aircraft. Save these for your MiG-19S, as this kit doesn't have the stores, but needs them!
Detail is very well done – panel lines and molded details. It will be a very detailed model right out of the box, especially if you opt to display the engines. More on that later.
Assembly begins with the cockpit. The ejection seat is made up of 10 pieces, and I only added a set of Airwaves harnesses and some bits of wire to complete it. Cutting Edge makes an SM-2 resin seat that is superior only in scale thickness of some parts. The instrument panel is supplied as an acetate sheet that is glued to the back of a clear panel. The cockpit was painted with a lightened Testors USN Intermediate Blue, per reference photographs. The cockpit is very detailed, and I only added various sizes of wire to the sidewalls. Members of the local club asked if the cockpit is resin, but it's not!
Next comes the nose and splitter intake assembly.
The nose requires significant weight to prevent the MiG from being a tail-sitter. I forgot and had to drill and load in lead beads after the fact, so add your weight of choice before cementing the two intake splitter halves together! The detailed nose gear bay and the avionics cabin are included in this section. I added plumbing to the gear bay, drilled lightening holes in the framing around the avionics bay, and wired up all the cool little boxes inside
The engines are next, and these are models unto themselves! Hunks of resin and a multitude of plastic parts for hoses, fans, etc. await your attention. However, tough choices also await! The only way to have a proper engine exhaust on the tail end of this thing is to install both entire engines in the fuselage – otherwise, Trumpeter provides a set of the traditional Soviet red FOD covers for the holes (a better solution would be to provide a set of exhaust inserts for those that don't want to install a complete engine). The problem is that there is no possible way that BOTH engines will fit into the fuselage once completely assembled. I fiddled with this aspect of the kit for about a week, test fitting, and it just won't work. So the options are:
Assemble just the engine bodies (no resin parts or hoses), and install them so that proper exhausts are visible, but leave the upper fuselage engine access doors closed.
Assemble the engines, leave them out for display, leave the access doors closed, and install the FOD's.
Install one complete engine, open one access door, and install a FOD on the other side.
I fudged and went with option #3, having already assembled 2 beautiful engines, and wanting to maximize their use. One engine went into the fuselage, and the other went onto a service cart that Trumpeter provides in the box. The installed engine was made visible by opening the access door. The access doors has ejector pin marks on the interior that need to be removed if you choose to open them.
At this point, I strongly recommend digressing from the instructions. To provide three different MiG-19 versions from essentially one set of molds, Trumpeter provides the fuselage in four halves: two halves for the rear section common to all kits, and two halves for the front section unique to the kit. I recommend gluing the two halves for each side together BEFORE assembling the opposite halves. Otherwise, you will have to deal with a painful seam around the entire circumference of the fuselage. This will likely improve fitting of the engines, and now the attachment of the tail cone is moved to later in construction.
Another recommendation is to use strip styrene to create backing tabs inside the front section fuselage halves, on the bottom. Later in construction, version-specific panels are inserted into the complete fuselage section here, and positive stops will help in preventing a nasty puttying and sanding job. This is also a good point to add additional weight into the forward section.
The remainder of assembly is a snap. I added some hydraulic lines to the three speed brakes, and chose to display them in open or semi-open positions. Based on photos, they don't necessarily open when the aircraft is powered down, but were likely opened as needed for maintenance. I added a lot of plumbing to the wheel wells. The texture inside the wheels wells is faithfully reproduced, but the plumbing adds a lot in this scale. Mold marks had to be removed on the inside of the gear doors. All wheel wells were shot with USN Intermediate Blue, and speed brake interiors with a mustard yellow, based on photos.
Flattened and non-flattened wheels are provided in the kit. I chose to add bulging to the flattened wheels using Milliput.
Note that the stabilizers on the tail rest in a slightly upward angle when the MiG-19 is parked.
There is no good reason not to attach the APU-4 launch rails before painting – they won't interfere with painting or decaling. Just be careful of the fragile director tips!
I added wire to the canopy section, and plumbing to the relatively bare deck behind the cockpit, based on reference photos.
The canopy has a faint molding seam down the center. I sanded lightly, polished, and dipped the canopy in Future, eliminating the defect.
For the MiG-19PM, the modeler has but one choice – natural metal. Kit decals are for Soviet, East German, and Chinese examples. I chose the Soviet machine.
I used SnJ buffing metalizer for the first time, and was pleased with the result. It was durable for masking, and dried quickly. Slightly darkened RLM66 Schwarzgrau was used for the radar cover, and a light spray of Tamiya Clear Orange was added to the exhaust area.
I chose to paint the four AA-1 missiles in a slightly darker natural metal color, instead of white as modern missiles are painted. Some art has shown them in all-red, but period photos look like natural metal to me.
The kit decals went down well. I did not coat them, as experimenting with various available coats seemed to dull the metal finish too much. Anyone with experience or ideas in this area, please contact me!
Overall, this was an enjoyable model to build, other than the agonizing over the engines. The lessons learned will certainly make the other MiG-19's waiting in the hangar (er…closet) easier to build. Next up…one of the many colorful MiG-19S's!

Beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.), also called as garden beet or table beet, is one of the major root vegetable. It is grown in almost all states of India but in small scale only. It produces green tops and a swollen root used both as vegetable and salad. It is highly productive and usually free from pests and diseases (Ado, 1999). A field experiment was conducted during rabi, 2014 in alkali soils. The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with three replicated 11 treatments viz., T1: FYM (100%), T2: Vermicompost (100%), T3: Neem cake (100%), T4: Poultry manure (100%), T5: Green manure (100%), T6: FYM (50%) + Vermicompost (50%), T7: FYM (50%) + Neem cake (50%), T8: FYM (50%) + Poultry manure (50%), T9: FYM (50%) + Green manure (50%), T10: RDF, T11: Control. The data were recorded on NPK uptake (kg ha-1) by the crop. The highest N uptake in plant was recorded with FYM (50%) + vermicompost (50%). The highest P and K uptake in plant was recorded with poultry manure (100%).

Benefits cheat given 958 years to pay back £88,000 she defrauded while living in Spain
May 19, 2019 admin Lifestyle News photo
Jayne Kitching, 53, has been ordered to pay back the £88,000 she defrauded at a rate of just £7.65 per month
A benefits cheat has been ordered to pay back nearly £88,000 she wrongly claimed while living in Spain, but not until the year 2977.
Jayne Kitching, 53, is paying back the amount she defrauded at a rate of just £7.65 per month, Grimsby Crown Court has heard.
At the rate agreed by the Department of Work and Pensions and Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, it would take 958 and a half years, or up to the year 2977.
Based upon the average life expectancy of 80 for a Grimsby woman, that could leave a total of £84,683 unpaid.
In court the mother of two admitted cheating the public revenue between July 2013 and August 2016.
She obtained income support, disability living allowance and carer's allowance having failed to tell authorities she had moved to Spain.
Kitching also admitted taking tax credit from HMRC between September 2013 and April 2017 and failing to failing to let agencies in the UK know that her children had been taken into care in Spain.
Prosecuting Nigel Clive said she claimed the benefits while living in Spain with her children. She did not tell agencies in the UK she had moved abroad.
Mr Clive said her children were taken from her and placed in the care of local authorities in Spain.
He said: 'The money she claimed was used for ordinary day-to-day living costs and to pay Spanish legal teams over her childcare claims. There was no lavish lifestyle.'
The children were not returned to her until April 2017 and the prosecutor said she has so far paid back £400.
The benefits cheat would take 958 and a half years, or up to the year 2977, to pay back the full amount she owes
He said: 'She gets £2,000-a-month now. She is repaying at £7.65 per month and there is no indication that she has any form of assets.'
The court was told she is the registered carer for one of her teenage children.
For Kitching, Craig Lowe said his client 'cuts a disconsolate and pathetic' figure.
He said: 'She is not the most intelligent of individuals and there was no prospect of success. It was only a matter of time before she was caught.'
Recorder Abdul Iqbal QC questioned why authorities had not detected her claiming benefits while living in Spain.
He asked: 'How would they know if she was living in Doncaster, or Grimsby or Malaga?'
Kitching's defence lawyer, Craig Lowe, told Grimsby Crown Court (pictured) his client was 'not the most intelligent of individuals'
Mr Clive said she had posted on Facebook how much she was looking forward to moving to Spain with her two teenage children and said the DWP had been tipped off.
Recorder Iqbal imposed a 12-month prison sentence suspended for 12 months.
He said he was doing so as 'an act of mercy towards her children' and to avoid them having to be taken into care.
He said: 'I hope you are thoroughly ashamed of your dishonesty.'
He added benefits agencies in the UK are 'overburdened and have over-stretched resources' which she had taken from dishonestly.
Kitching has also been ordered to undergo 20 days of rehabilitation.

Angi is an Indiana Emergency Medicine, Critical Care and Trauma ICU Physician and the Medical Director of NASCAR/AMR Safety Teams and a member of the Indy Car Safety Team. More importantly, she is Rachael's Mom and the woman behind our program. Wearing her heart on her sleeve, she shares her heartache with thousands of young people each year with the hope of changing the fate of just one student. She acts as second mom to many of Rachael's friends, who label her as Momma Fiege.
Gabi is the new Executive Director, and is responsible for establishing Rachael's First Week as a nonprofit organization and ensuring its sustainability for the future. In her previous role at the Community Foundation of Boone County, Gabi worked closely with the Fiege family to preserve Rachael's legacy and is honored to continue that work here.
Julie is the Marketing and Programming Director. She handles Facebook, Twitter, the website and all email correspondence. She does the photography, marketing and attends programs to ensure the tech runs smoothly. She works on getting the program into area high schools, sororities/fraternities & local colleges.
Shary's relationship began with Rachael's Family when her son played on Coach Fiege's soccer team. After Rachael's death, Sharyl helped conceptualize the idea of Rachael's First Week. Despite so busy working as a Medical Administrator, you can almost always catch Sharyl at the RFW events, taking pictures and keeping Momma Fiege sane, program after program.
Rick is Rachael's dad and her biggest soccer supporter. Rick works as a Real Estate Broker and coaches club soccer. Whether you know him as Rick or Coach or Papa Fiege, you know that he is a behind-the-scenes kind of man. You may get lucky enough to see Coach Fiege at one of our programs, but usually his work for RFW is done outside of our program time.
Jeremy is Rachael's brother and was one of her best friends. While you almost always find him at the fields coaching and working as a ref for youth club soccer. Jeremy often speaks at our programs about the Indiana LifeLine Law, as his passion towards the law increased after we lost Rachael. He is a very vital part of our presentations and this program.
Jake is a former Butler Bulldog. Although he never knew her, he and Rachael share a lot of common interests; especially their love of soccer. Jake is a medical resident at the IU School of Medicine. In his spare time, Jake joins the panel of residents during our RFW programs.
This crazy Scottish man was a recent medical resident at the IU School of Medine. Adam has been with RFW for a few years now and we are thankful for him. He is one of our lead resident speakers, who always adds some comic relief. Adam has been dedicated to making sure another accident like Rachael's doesn't happen again.
Jill has been with us for a few years and has taken a huge leadership role in recruiting new residents and reaching out to universities. She is currently a resident at the IU School of Medicine. Chances are you'll see Jill on stage at a program, as she is a regular speaker. You may also witness her putting one of the largest boys in the crowd into a recovery position on stage. We love Jill and are thankful for her dedication to our team!
Sammy and Rachael met on their childhood soccer team. The two became extremely close and shared an abundance of laughs and crazy times together. Sammy has been with Rachael's First Week since our first program. Although she is busy teaching, Sammy is part of our panel and is often responsible for discussing hard topics such as suicide and the impact of losing Rachael.
Julia was one of Rachael's closest friends. They became friends their freshman year of high school while playing on the same soccer team. Julia is a regular speaker and is often given the difficult task of tackling the topics of depressions, suicide and Adderall at our programs. She is currently pursuing a master's degree in social work.
Dara and Rachael met on their first rec soccer team called the Purple Apes when they were about 5 years old. Although a year younger than Rachael, the two remained friends throughout the years. When she's not DJing under the name Derz, you may catch Dara at a RFW program. Dara has been on the friends panel since the program started and we are so thankful for her positive energy!
Rachael and I became best friends through soccer and she was always a light in my life. I have loved being part of Rachael's First Week and hearing how Rachael's story has made a difference in so many lives. Currently, I am in the Physician Assistant Program at Northwestern University but try to stay involved with RFW and attend the program when I am home!
Hannah and Rachael played soccer together through high school, sharing many great memories. Hannah is busy going to school for her doctorate currently, but still attends Rachael's First Week programs. She has been with the program since the beginning, often serving on the student panel.
Laura and Rachael were best friends for 12 years. Laura lived behind Rachael for most of their lives and the two were inseparable. Laura has been on the Rachael's First Week team since the beginning. Despite being busy teaching, you'll probably see Laura on the friends panel at an RFW program discussing her "exit strategies". Laura is in charge of the RFW Instagram, Snapchat and other behind-the-scenes jobs.
Like Rachael, Shelby grew up in Zionsville and graduated from Zionsville High School in 2014. She then furthered her education by attending Indiana University where she received a degree in Secondary Special Education in 2018. Shelby is currently working as a visual merchandiser at Free People but plan to eventually go back to school in order to pursue a graduates degree in Higher Education.
Catana is the Injury Prevention Coordinator for IU Health Methodist Trauma Services. She has been with Rachael's First Week for a few years, interfacing between trauma services and outreach. You may catch her in the audience of some of our programs or representing RFW at events. Without Catana, our programs would not be possible!
Katie, a former IU grad and current IUEM resident, has been apart of Rachel's First Week since medical school. Previously involved in program development and medical student recruitment, she is now one of the regular program speakers. She thoroughly enjoys the interactions with other speakers on stage and the opportunity to help educate and guide program participants into safe life experiences.
Mary met Rachael through soccer and high school where they became best friends. Rachael was a big influence on Mary's choice to attend IU. Mary is currently in nursing school and has a passion for emergency medicine! Mary helps with RFW to share Racheal's story so students can be prepared, educated, and keep others safe.
Erich is a 3rd year medical student at IU pursuing Emergency Medicine. Although he did not know Rachael, he was moved by her story and wanted to help educate students across the state. He is grateful for all the wonderful individuals that work with RFW to give high school seniors and college freshmen the tools they need to succeed in the coming years!
Katie is a high school student at Zionsville Community High School. She has volunteered her time to stuff all of the phone wallets Rachael's First Week hands out during their presentations.

Zillow continues on path of world domination—but what does it mean for apartment hunters?
July 28, 2014 - 11:59am
By Lucy Cohen Blatter
Today, online real estate listings giant Zillow announced that it'll acquire its largest competitor, Trulia, for $3.5 billion. Assuming the deal is approved by regulators, which is expected, two of the country's biggest real estate search sites—which reportedly control 61 percent of the market—will combine, creating a huge repository for online listings and property-value data.
What it all means:
Well, first off, if you're looking to buy an apartment, there's a very good chance you'll be using Zillow or a site that Zillow owns, at least in combination with other search sites. Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
Around this time last year, the Seattle-based Zillow made big headlines locally when it bought the New York listings portal StreetEasy. Since then, StreetEasy has had a facelift, with its website and app getting a total redesign, and the company dropped its paywall. So far, so good. (Meanwhile, Trulia has been trying to appeal to New York renters by trying to weed out duplicate listings on its site.)
But one concern with the Trulia deal is that it will dumb down one of the site's major selling points: its visualization of local data. Trulia's "heat maps" show environmental hazards, crime rates, local amenities, demographics and more in any given neighborhood—and in a more detailed way than Zillow's version. Still, Zillow's popular "Zestimates" feature, which gives a ballpark estimate of how much a property is worth, is likely to live on past the merger.
Readers, what do you think? Do you use Zillow, Trulia, StreetEasy or any combination of the above? Which one's your favorite?

Q: Cassandra query on secondary index is very slow We have a table with about 40k rows, querying on secondary index is slow(30 seconds on production). Our cassandra is 1.2.8. The table schema is as following:
CREATE TABLE usertask (
  tid uuid PRIMARY KEY,
  content text,
  ts int
) WITH
  bloom_filter_fp_chance=0.010000 AND
  caching='KEYS_ONLY' AND
  comment='' AND
  dclocal_read_repair_chance=0.000000 AND
  gc_grace_seconds=864000 AND
  read_repair_chance=0.100000 AND
  replicate_on_write='true' AND
  populate_io_cache_on_flush='false' AND
  compaction={'class': 'SizeTieredCompactionStrategy'} AND
  compression={'sstable_compression': 'SnappyCompressor'};

CREATE INDEX usertask_ts_idx ON usertask (ts);

When I turn on tracing, I notice there is a lot of lines like the following:
Executing single-partition query on usertask.usertask_ts_idx

With only 40k rows, it looks like there are some thousands of query on usertask_ts_idx. What could be the problem? Thanks
More investigation
I try the same query on our test server, it is much faster(30 seconds on prod, 1-2 seconds on test server). After comparing the tracing log, the difference is the time spending at seeking to partition indexed section in data file. On our production it takes 1000-3000 micro sec for each seek, on dev server it takes 100 micro seconds. I guess our production server has not enough memory to cache the data file so it is slow at seeking in data file.

A: I am presuming ts is a timestamp, in which case this is not a good candidate for a secondary index.  The reason is that it's a high cardinality value (i.e. all values are essentially unique).  This means you'll end up with almost one row in the index for each row in usertask--effectively resulting in a join operation.  Joins are terribly slow on a distributed database.  Since you haven't shown your query I'm not sure exactly what you're doing, but you'll need to rethink your model if you want to query based on time.

Lookey-loo! I finally got round to doing an actual bourbon review! And only a week late. So, just real quick, to make sure we're all up to speed. What is Bourbon? To start, the mash (the fermentables in water) must be 51% corn. The rest of the grain is usually a mix of barley and rye. The other thing is that it's got to be aged in new charred oak barrels – and quite frankly it's not any sort of whisky unless it's been aged on oak. Interestingly Bourbon does NOT have to be made in Kentucky, that's just Kentucky straight bourbon, which has it's own special marketing designations. Normally, when these are fermented (and this is generally true for the bulk of large modern distilling operations) a sour-mash is used to ferment the mash. In Beer, you'd mash by steeping the grains in water at a temperature of about 150F. Provided you have enough barley (natural source of amylase), the starches in your mash will convert to sugars that can be fermented. In a sour-mash, everything is just dumped into a fermentation vessel of some sort and allowed to slowly convert the starches to sugars and ferment at the same time. Lactic acid builds up in the process giving a distinct sour taste that comes through so strongly in american whiskeys & bourbons.
In any case, that's enough about bourbon as a thing. On to reviewing this specific whisky. First off, it is smooth like a Canadian whisky, but without all of the heavy caramel flavors you usually get in one of those. Normally, Bourbons tend to be a bit more rough around the edges.
The nose here reminds me of apple, but it also smells 'raw', as if it's just been brought out of the still and into the cup. It's sort of hard to describe, but it's like the grain flavor has been reduced into it's essential grainy bits and fed to you. The flavor is kinda bland actually. A hint of caramel, a hint of oak, or toffee, a bit of something nutty and some spice, but that's sort of it. The finish is not super long and a wee bit spicy. Really, it's about as smooth as the taste itself. If I'm being honest, this bourbon reminded me of what would happen if an Irish Whiskey knocked up it's Canadian Whiskey girlfriend.
On a scale of Mix to Neat. I'd actually put this as shots. (yes, below mix, it mixed plain and din't add much to the drink). Anyhow, it was cheap, and I wouldn't say don't buy it, but meh, sometimes you need to take shots – like when arguing with someone politically diametrically opposed to you on Twitter. Nobody is going to win and you really just need something to bring you off the ledge of apoplectic rage.
Just tried this bourbon and have to say, I agree on the mildness. Although, I don't feel it's a strike against it or specifically a shots drink. I used it to help a friend compare between Jack, Evan Williams, Canadian, Crown, and this. Interesting to note this is very subtle and light. On the whole, I'd compare it to Bradly Cooper, a white wash who is great for everyone but not really good at anything in particular. Sometimes you need it… if not because it is useful when needing something that everyone can agree on but offers nothing in particular.


What if we could use power plants to remove excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere? This might sound far-fetched, but as a recent crop of carbon capture projects has proven, this could be the future of energy. Until recently, the idea of capturing carbon was widely considered an implausible way to reduce the world's carbon dioxide emissions. However, many scientists today believe carbon capture technology will play an essential role in the race against global warming.
While most carbon capture systems are still in the experimental phase, a few have already become fully operational power plants. One plant in Iceland, operated by a startup company called Climeworks, has demonstrated the amazing ability to produce energy with negative carbon emissions. That means the plant actually removes more carbon dioxide from the surrounding environment than it produces. Let's take a quick look at carbon dioxide capture and storage to understand how this is possible.
Researchers have been developing two distinct carbon capture methods: reversible absorption and direct air capture. Reversible absorption, the more common of the two methods, runs polluted air through a material called amine to absorb the CO2. Alternatively, direct air capture uses huge turbines to draw in exhaust from the power plant so that excess carbon dioxide particles can be extracted.
But where does all the carbon dioxide go? Once it is removed, power plants need a place to store it. Methods of carbon storage vary widely. In Switzerland, Climeworks operates a clean power plant that funnels into greenhouses, improving crop yields by 20 percent. Global Thermostat, a carbon capture project in Palo Alto, is working on a way to convert captured carbon dioxide into fuels.
Unlike other carbon capture and storage projects, Climeworks' power plant in Iceland generates geothermal energy, which is considered a clean energy source. Electricity is generated by pumping water through a series of underground pipes. Then, heat from deep underground turns the water into steam, which is used to generate electricity. The process emits a very small amount of carbon dioxide, which is where the carbon capture and storage process begins. Climeworks uses direct air capture to gather up carbon dioxide. The CO2 is then mixed with water and injected 700 meters underground. Finally, this mixture becomes trapped in basalt rock for millions of years.
The great news is that there are large basalt deposits all over the world, meaning that this carbon capture and storage process could someday be used on a large scale. The only drawback is that current carbon capture and storage technology isn't cheap. Scientists in Iceland have managed to capture carbon dioxide and store it underground for only $30 per metric ton of carbon dioxide. But researchers working on other methods of carbon capture estimate that the process will cost at least $100 per metric ton, although when scaled up, some projects could drop down to $50 per metric ton. Only one carbon capture plant currently operates commercially: another Climeworks project in Switzerland.
The Climeworks plants in Iceland and Switzerland are only two of many similar CO2 capture and storage pilot programs around the world. Other startup businesses in the U.S., Canada and British Columbia have received millions of dollars in private investments. Traditional energy companies are also experimenting with carbon dioxide capture technology. Exxon Mobil Corp. and FuelCell Energy have started a program in Alabama that aims to capture carbon dioxide from a combination of coal and natural gas emissions. ConocoPhillips, General Electric and RoyalDutchShell Corp. have all begun similar programs.
Jeffrey Bobeck is the lead policy analyst at the Global CCS Institute, an organization devoted to the advancement of carbon capture technology. He says that in order for carbon dioxide capture to be used on a large scale, researchers will need federal support. Bobeck has proposed increasing the 45Q tax credit, which incentivizes companies to participate in carbon storage programs. Whatever the solution, scientists and lawmakers need to act quickly. Combined with other clean energy technologies, carbon capturing could help halt global warming before the earth's temperature rises to dangerous levels.

Ten plays. Four performances. Two days. One theme.
Chesil Theatre's new writing festival –
TakeTen launches today with The Road Not Taken selected as theme
1st May 2020: THE ROAD NOT TAKEN has been selected as the theme for a new national playwriting festival run by Chesil Theatre Winchester, with the winning 10 plays performed over one weekend in February 2021.
TakeTen Chesil Theatre New Writing Festival ('TakeTen'), the new biennial contest, opens today to entries and has a simple format:
plays need to be ten minutes in length
scripts can include one to four actors, with minimum props, lighting and sound, and
they must also be unperformed, unpublished and original work.
The theatre company has built a strong reputation for cultivating new plays and discovering new writers over the past decade and has attracted the attention of some renowned actors. Having watched a performance, Sir Ian McKellen enthused: "I thought the whole enterprise was startlingly good and an example of what a theatre company like the Chesil can do better than a professional one. They should be very proud of the result of their labours."
TakeTen builds on this success and the company hopes its new contest will be the most successful festival yet.
David Small, Chairman, Chesil Theatre, says: "Chesil Theatre has long been associated with performing ground-breaking work, and 'TakeTen Chesil Theatre New Writing Festival 2021' aims to cement that reputation and to give new talent an opportunity to be celebrated – in front of a paying audience – over one weekend.
"We received a large number of suggestions for the festival theme, with The Road Not Taken selected owing to its wide opportunity for interpretation. While it is the name of a well-known poem by Robert Frost, we hope that new playwrights will have a lot of fun with it and use its versatility to come up with some theatre firsts."
A unique feature of TakeTen is its final rehearsal period taken over a concentrated time. This makes it easier for those who can't normally commit to the theatre's usual eight-week schedule to take part. The set for each play is also kept intentionally simple, allowing for the 10 winning plays to be performed back to back and with minimum set change time.
David Small concludes: "The whole 'hothouse' atmosphere of the festival creates a tremendous team effort when 50 people or more finally get together for the four performances over one frenetic weekend, culminating in a final end of show party."
All entries must be in by 11:59 on 18th July 2020. Those shortlisted through an initial selection process then go to a panel of judges before the short list of 20 and final 10 winners are announced in autumn 2020. Chesil Theatre will then start appointing directors and stage management, with auditions and casting to follow.
Rules and entry criteria are available here www.chesiltheatre.org.uk or email if you have any specific queries not covered by the entry criteria to taketen@chesiltheatre.org.uk.

The Chesil Theatre (Winchester Dramatic Society) is based in Winchester and presents six main productions a year, ranging from comedy to classics. Chesil Theatre also performs regular rehearsed readings as well as offering stagecraft training. The company has been performing plays for 150 years.
Since 1966 the Chesil Theatre has been our permanent home - a former 12th century church in Chesil Street. Its medieval building provides an intimate 75-seat studio-style theatre and versatile performance space. It has around 250 members including two youth groups, and auditions are open to everyone; newcomers are welcome.

Background and challenges to implementation:
Cinema influences children of young impressionable mind. A LANCET publication revealed that viewing smoking scenes in movies promotes smoking initiation among adolescent. The findings indicated that the effect of exposure to movie smoking was stronger on the adolescent than parental smoking.
The Government of India and the WHO supported study on "tobacco in movies and impact on youth" also revealed that after the ban on all forms of Tobacco Advertisement Promotion and Sponsorship in 2003, by India there was nearly 50% increase in smoking scene by lead character and more than 50% increase in tobacco products/brands placement.
Considering the influence of movies on youths in India, the Government of India in 2005, banned the depiction tobacco usage in Films.
Subsequently, The Tobacco-free Film Rules were legally challenged by the film industry for alleged violation of freedom of speech and expression. There was also difference of opinion between the Health Ministry and Information & Broadcasting Ministry. This resulted in deferment in implementation of Rules.
Intervention or response:
The two Ministries through inter-ministerial consultations reached on an agreement have an effective law to curb TAPS through films. The Government of India also responded strongly while defending the new warnings in the court cases.
Finally with the intervention of the Supreme Court of India the Film Rules in its modified form were implemented from 2nd October 2012.
Results and lessons learnt:
The Film rules mandate that to depict tobacco product or its usage in any film, an editorial justification will be given by the producer explaining the necessity of such scenes.
Also a anti-tobacco disclaimer and health spots in the beginning and middle of the films and display of anti-tobacco health message during such scenes have been made mandatory.
Conclusions and key recommendations:
Through strong political commitment and coordinated advocacy and legal efforts, its is possible to restrict depiction of tobacco use in films.

With over 60 years of experience in supplying our custom parts to customers throughout North America and across the oceans, we've encountered our share of "faux pas" with shipping. So here are a few things to think about in the pursuit of getting your parts on time, in one piece, at a somewhat reasonable cost.
Let us know who your favourite carrier is (courier, trucking company, delivery service, Uber...). *Note that you need to consider if it's a heavy item or a large quantity; shipping hundreds of pounds by air is going to increase the cost significantly.
Do you have an account with your carrier that we should be aware of?
UPS is a very popular carrier but they're also really big – good luck finding an account manager to talk to if things go wrong. We've had a lot of success using Fed-Ex ground.
We'll need your Tax ID # if you're in the U.S. (for Customs purposes).
How soon do you really need the parts? You can save a lot of $$ by shipping over the course of a few days or picking up tomorrow instead of today.
Consolidation of multiple orders in one shipment at the same time can offer large savings.
If you're Offshore, we recommend working with a Freight Forwarder. One of our favourites is Kintetsu World Express (KWE); they're totally with it and have all the info on what's needed, wherever.
Finally, rest assured that we'll prepare the customs paperwork for our neighbours to the south so no worries on that side.
OK, so we've been a little hard on some of the big carriers but please know that we use many of them daily because they generally get the job done...and we know the ups & downs. The main point is that with just a little preparation in advance, we'll get your parts to you safe & sound, on-time and at a cost that won't empty your wallet.

Violette Szabo Museum
The history of a real life heroine
About Violette Szabo
Secret Agents
Carve Her Name with Pride Film: The Story of Violette Szabo
Carve Her Name with Pride is a 1958 film that is based on the adult life of Violette Szabo who worked for the Special Operations Executive during World War II as a spy. Violette subsequently was captured, tortured and executed by the Germans. Let's take a look at the movie in more detail.
Violette Bushell is the daughter of an English father and a French mother. The film begins at the start of WWII where Violettes mother suggests the family invite a French soldier into their home to celebrate Bastille Day with them. Violette, played by Virginia McKenna, goes to the park and meets a French officer, Etienne Szabo, played by Alain Saury, who she takes home to meet her family. The couple soon fall in love and marry before he is posted back to North Africa.
Violette gives birth to a daughter and shortly afterwards Etienne is killed in action at El Alamein. Violette is invited to join the SOE as they think she will be useful to them as she is bi lingual speaking both English and French fluently. Violette agrees and following in depth training she parachutes in to France in 1944 in order to salvage a resistance unit.
The mission is a success and Violette returns to England to take up her role as a mother but the SOE asks her once again to take on a mission, following the D Day Landings. This was to seal Violettes fate as she was captured and never returned home. Carve her Name with Pride is a true story of a heroine who was posthumously awarded the George Cross in recognition of her bravery.
Review of the Movie
Carve Her Name with Pride is a black and white movie that is characteristic of its time. It was made in 1958 therefore is typical of the era, with the main characters of Violette and her two female colleagues displaying a real "stiff upper lip" attitude to what befalls them. Were this film to made now we feel it would most likely be a much more gutsy offering with more realism.
Having said that the film is never the less well worth watching as it does tell the truly heroic story of a woman of great fortitude who gave her life selflessly for her country. As the movie was filmed in black and white it adds to the grim atmosphere somewhat making up for the lack of realism and obvious violence that would have been encountered by Violette during interrogation.
It is intimated in the film that the poem "The Life that I Have" which was used as a way of passing on code during operations was chosen by Violette as Etienne had read it to her in the park before he left for North Africa. The poem was written by Leo Marks's girlfriend and was actually chosen by the SOE. Leo Marks was the head of the SOE ciphers unit.
Virginia McKenna plays the role of Violette with great dignity and calm, while the fact that Violette was a very beautiful brunette seems to have passed the casting director by as Virginia McKenna is well known for her light blonde hair. That said, Carve Her Name with Pride, available to buy from Amazon, is a great way to introduce us to the courageous Violette Szabo and is well worth watching. The final scene where Violettes little girl goes to the palace to receive the George Cross on behalf of her late mother is particularly poignant.

Rules to Know for Chase Credit Card Applications
By Gavin | October 12, 2018
We're going to talk about what rules need to be aware of if you're applying for a Chase credit card. There are two rules you need to be aware of, there's the 2/30 rule and the 5/24 rule.
A good strategy here for both cards
The 2/30 rule says they can only have two applications every 30 days, otherwise, they'll automatically be rejected. A good strategy here for both cards on the same day tastes like a lot of other issuers. If you apply for more than one card in a day instead of pulling your credit twice throwing in a folded one.
Even though you can't apply and get approved for two cards, if your credit profile isn't good enough you're not going to get approved. For example, if you're someone who recently got credit, who doesn't have too much experience, the Chase is already has a lot of Chase cards, then Chase will probably only approve you for one card every 30 days.
Reports to your credit report your one as well matters
The next thing we're going to talk about is a Chase 5/24 rule and something that a lot of people get confused with. I want to provide a bit more clarity, the main idea is that if you have more than five new accounts in the last 24 months then you're automatically going to get rejected for certain taste cards, and again the five new accounts can be from any issuer, and they're looking at your credit report.
Whatever reports to your credit report your one as well matters. For example, if you've got three Bank of America cards and two Citi cards in the last 24 months then you're going to be affected by 5/24.
The main exception to this is business cards, that don't post on your credit report. Bank of American, Express, Chase, those don't post to your credit report so they won't affect your 5/24. Rating trades business cards don't report to your credit report, so they do not affect 5/24.
Even though Chase can see them and they know that they exist, it's sort of like a robot seeing that if on credit record greater than 5 in 24 months then reject, otherwise it's okay. For example, if you hook up 7 new business cards in the last 24 months, not possible, but let's run through this example, then your x24 rating would be zero out of 24 because those don't count.
The boxes with color meaning
Let's take a look at my cards since I Chase 5/24 if you want to know what these boxes mean you can look at the bottom, the grey ones mean that you can apply to them, they don't matter.
Green ones mean that they are not affected by pop coming for so you can apply for them freely. The blue ones and red ones, our work is a bit interesting, the blue ones are the ones that are affected by 5/24.
Again if you have more than five new accounts in 24 months then you're automatically going to be rejected, but there are ways around them via pre-approvals. What's a bit more - pre-approvals?
Weird ones are cards that are affected by 5/24, and there are no pre-approvals, pre-approvals basically means that you're going into a branch and talking to a banker and seeing what cards they see on there and are pre-approved.
What is pre-approvals
Anything like this is I get to go into a branch to find out or you have to kind of build a rapport of a banker and just email them, and be like 'hey, can you tell me if there are any new pre-approvals?
If a banker tells you that you're pre-approved for everything I'd be a bit careful. Either you are pre-approved for everything are they're not sure, and they're saying that hoping that you will apply for a card, the way that makes sure is the bankers that print out the terms.
For example, if you're pre-approved you'll see something like 18 points, just because you're pre-approved for a card, does not mean that you're going to get approved.
They're still going to look at your income and your credit score and stuff like that, so don't think that it's a hundred percent for our purpose. We're looking at pre-approvals as a way to get around 5/24.
The optimal strategy that you should go towards
If you're looking for the optimal strategy that you should go towards the red cards first, then the blue cards, and then the green card.
The main reason you want to go towards the red cards first is that they're affected by 5/24 and there are no pre-approvals, meaning that there's no way to get around it. Once you go over about 24 and just because it's also the most rata tree, it doesn't mean to make sense for you.
If you want to go to the exotic place and the ones I recommended was the tree Sapphire Preferred, which Asaph I reserved, the Hyatt and the Ritz-Carlton the Hyatt of the Brooks Carlton are not affected by 524, but for his purposes, it makes a lot of sense because he's trying to have a really special occasion.
Two ways to see if you're pre-approved
I would check that, and the alternative is you might get a mailer with a very specific link, if it's not a general one, if it has a very specific link to apply then that's typically a pre-approval. If you're wondering how to get pre-approved for cards the recommended way is not to add any new taste cards for six months, pre-approvals are not science though, so it's still kind of a black box.
Some people say four months, some people say six months, and some people say that it's not based off when you add a new account, it's based on applications and stuff like that.
But for me, what has works is basically don't apply for any taste cards for six months in terms of the sign up bonus, you're eligible to get it as long as you do not currently have a card either yourself or as an authorized user, and you have not gotten the bonus in the last 24 months as the main user.
Eligible for the offer
For example, if you have the ice she signs up off for in 2014 since it's been more than two years, you're going to be eligible for the offer again. It just really depends on whether it makes sense for you to do that, for me, cards like the I extreme card, and they're the firm base I need for my credit score.
Let's say I have a card tonight at Mandy as an authorized user, if I do a product change then Chase is going to send me two of those new cards. Let's say I change from the freedom to the freedom unlimited for whatever reason, then Chase is going to mail us to new freedom unlimited cards.

1 What is hydrotherapy good for?
What is hydrotherapy good for?
Hydrotherapy is the external therapeutic use of water for the cure of the pain or the remediation of certain diseases.
Hydrotherapy is based on the ability of water to transmit heat or cold, which produces specific responses to each type of individual.
The use of water for healing dates back to antiquity. The first to use it were the Egyptians, but the maximum boom coincided with the ancient Greeks and Romans, as shown in the remains of baths found.
Among the top names in the history of the phytotherapy, we must mention Priessnitz Vincent, who based on studies of Hippocrates. He is considered the father of hydrotherapy.
Sebastian Kneipp is another of the big names. He was a German priest, founder of the " Kneipp cure". He used hydrotherapy, along with herbs and a proper diet to increase the body's defenses. thereby he achieved to cure his own illness.
Spas became especially popular in Europe during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
At present, the therapeutic use of water is well recognized and there are many centers around the world. We find the use of hydrotherapy spas both as nursing homes, hospitals, etc. Increasingly the use of massage is setting not only in hotels but in private homes.
Between 26 and 33 º C water produces no specific sensation, as it approaches to body temperature.
Between 34 and 36 ° C, we start to notice it hot.
Between 39 and 45 º C we perceive it as very hot.
Between 19 and 26 ° C, moderately cold.
Cold water: In early stages, it produces a cold sensation by vasoconstriction of the peripheral blood vessels. Later, in reaction, it provides warmth and redness in the skin and dilation of blood vessels in the skin.
This type of water is used to increase metabolism in the event that the body then reacts to heat by increasing the body temperature. It is used to reduce acute inflammation resulting from trauma. In general, cold water has an invigorating effect.
Hot water: It increases body heat, reddens the skin by means of producing peripheral vasodilation (blood is concentrated in the area where water is applied).
It is used to decrease pain, relax the body, purify the body by increasing metabolism, reducing stress and improving the defenses.
Very hot water: It causes a primary state of discomfort and the body becomes pale at first. Subsequently, a reaction that turns pale redness and discomfort into well being.
It is applied in short periods (1 to 2 minutes) and ending with cold water. This procedure is good for the circulatory system since it improves circulation.
Use of alternate hot and cold water: Used to improve blood circulation, strengthen the tissues and relieve congestion.
It's a good way to activate the body's defense systems and train the blood vessels that are strengthened as a result of exercise resulting from the expansion of their muscular walls followed by their contraction.
Sulphated water: They are rich in sulfates. Increase the intestinal peristalsis, and therefore have a laxative or purgative when drunk in larger quantity. (suitable for constipation) They are also used as stimulants of bile.
Chlorinated water: They are rich in chlorides. They are used as stimulants in the body, for the treatment of skin diseases.
The use of water as a curative element is one of the most economical and safest ways to remedy the physical problems. In general, water relieves pain, improves physical conditions, soothes and relaxes the body and provides a sense of well being.
Pelvic and abdominal problems: They are remedied essentially by sitz baths that can be made with hot or cold water. Among them we have, for example, the treatment of hemorrhoids, constipation, kidneys diseases, diseases of the liver.
Problems of the circulatory system: such as poor circulation, varices. It is usually applied with cold water. However, it is not adequate to rheumatic patients who react negatively to cold.
Problems of body pain: such as rheumatic pain, headache, arthrosis, etc. These are mainly chronic pains which are treated with hot water. Do not apply hot water in the case of severe pain caused by trauma, as in the case of sprains or shock.

Q: Should I use @typescript-eslint/explicit-function-return-type eslint's rule? I've started working on a project which has this eslint rule enabled (@typescript-eslint/explicit-function-return-type) and I was wondering what value it provides?
From my personal experience, I feel like this rule doesn't provide much value and adds boilerplate in 99% of the cases. I think disabling it and only specifying types when they can't be inferred would be a better approach. Thought on this?

A: I also believe that it is redundant. But only if you use --noImplicitAny. We all know that using any is a criminal offence in TypeScript, right? (Attempted joke)
So since TypeScript doesn't allow implicit anys, everything is sensibly typed (unless you specify any explicitly, so add es-lint no-explicit-any to avoid prison time), TypeScript will make sure that all the function returns are properly typed and used accordingly.
And this way we gain more flexibility when having to change function signatures. Imaging changing id: number to id: string in all the project? So for more flexibilty you can also use id: Entity["id"] - longer to write but never breaks.

Quotes by Caroline Scott (?)
"You can't give me this."
"Yes, I can. It's mine to do with as I choose, and I choose to give it to you. I can't vouch for its luck-delivering properties, but it can't do any harm, can it?"
"No." He looked at the gray metallic medal in his palm. The ribbon was still warm. He closed his fingers around it. "I want to say something to you. If I don't say it now, I might never say it."
She looked down as she shook her head. "Harry-"
"I am permitted to make a fool of myself because I might die tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? In Altrincham?"
"I'm not being literal."
"You are being dramatic." Edie pushed her hair behind her ears and put the beret back on. She smiled at him and widened her eyes. "You might not die tomorrow, and then what a fool would you feel?"
"Edie, please, let me be serious."
"No, because you will say something that you regret. And then I will say things that I regret."
"Will you?"
"I have to get my bus," she said. "Saint Christopher protects travelers. Now you'll always be able to find your way back to me, won't you?"
"I will. You know I always will."
"Don't really stop writing to me, will you?"
"How could I? I promise; I won't ever stop."

"She inhales the peppery warm breath of the cypresses. She loves their scent. It's a scent that seems to make moments memories even before they've stopped happening."
― Glenn Haybittle, The Way Back to Florence
"Since the advent of war many things have happened to him that he could not possibly have imagined. He wonders if this is one of the subliminal reasons men wage war. To increase the daily frequency of surprise and shock. The forerunners of revelation."

We are delighted to announce to a new collaboration between Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH) patient representative network, FH Europe, and the FH investigators from all over the world who work together as part of the EAS FH Studies Collaboration (FHSC). This announcement is made on behalf of EAS President, Professor Lale Tokgözoglu, the FHSC Leads Professor Kausik Ray and Professor Alberico L. Catapano, together with Jules Payne, Chair of the FH Europe network.
FH continues to be a major global health problem, very common — worldwide, one in every 200 to 500 people has FH — yet widely underdiagnosed and undertreated. Most people who have FH do not know they have it. These people have inherited high cholesterol, and are at risk for premature atherosclerosis and early cardiovascular events that are often fatal. But if FH is identified early, and effective treatment begun, individuals with FH can live long and healthy lives.
Through this collaboration, by linking FH patient groups with expert clinicians from all over the world, we will share globally established best practices that will mean more persons with FH are identified early and, once they are identified, a smoother pathway for the patient to referral and potentially life-saving treatment in the clinic.
FH Europe's patient organisation network works to secure early identification and diagnosis of FH patients to prevent early cardiovascular disease, providing information to patients and families and supporting development of newer or smaller patient groups.
Closer interaction with FHSC's network of expert clinicians as a result of this collaboration will have real benefits for FH patients. Interacting at national level, patient groups and clinicians will work together to establish and optimise communication and medical referral processes, so that once diagnosed, FH patients quickly receive all the information, support and treatment they and their families need.
Currently 84 contributing clinical leaders from 70 countries worldwide are submitting the information they have collected nationally about their FH patients to the FHSC's global registry of FH patient cases. Analysis of this registry – currently standing at over 28,000 cases, expected to reach over 40,000 by the end of 2019 – is providing unique results about the global burden of FH covering every continent, and will provide new and uniquely detailed knowledge on how FH is detected and managed globally, the clinical consequences of current policies and practices on delivery of care, and how these in turn affect the life course of FH. EAS FHSC's global data registry will allow us to make country-by-country data comparisons that will support and inform the development of international programmes, initiatives and policies specifically focused on FH.
Our collaboration aims to improve the diagnosis and management of FH patients globally, and we will work together on our common goals towards improving care for FH patients: working within the FH community with initiatives reducing gaps in knowledge, informing best practice, assisting in clinical trials design, and supporting clinical guidelines and development of policies; reaching outside the FH community by raising awareness of the burden of FH among healthcare professionals and policy-makers, and advancing global public policy on FH.
Through this collaboration FH Europe and the FHSC will speak with one voice on FH, driving early recognition, promoting stronger and more effective global advocacy, and improving the lives of millions around the world through the early detection and effective treatment of FH.
Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH), inherited high cholesterol, continues to be a major global health problem, very common, yet widely underdiagnosed and undertreated. Untreated FH can result in premature atherosclerosis and potentially preventable cardiovascular events that are often fatal. Less than 5% of individuals with FH are identified in most regions around the world.
FH Europe is a registered charity, Charity number 1170731, registered in England and Wales. Set up in 2015, comprises multiple FH patient groups (currently 24 organisations from 23 countries) across Europe. By sharing information & best practice FH Europe's aim is to secure early identification and diagnosis of Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH). FH Europe members are both organisations and individuals that represent FH patient groups within their specific European country.
FH Europe Trustees Board: Chair, Jules Payne (Chief Executive of HEART UK – The Cholesterol Charity); Honorary Treasurer Gunnar Karlsson (Patient Association FH Sweden), Gabriele Hanauer-Mader (voluntary president and founder of FHchol Austria, the Austrian patient organisation for patients with FH or related genetic lipid disorders), Inese Maurina (co-founder in 2011 of the Latvian FH patient organisation ParSirdi.lv which she now heads) and Theodora Varkonyi-Weisz (co-founder and director of the Swiss FH organisation).
European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) was founded in 1964 with the aim of "advancing and exchanging knowledge concerning the causes, natural history, treatment and prevention of atherosclerotic disease". The Society contributes to the development of knowledge in the field, with publications and educational activities, and by providing a forum in which new research developments can be discussed, leading ultimately to the improved treatment of persons with cardiovascular disease and lipid disorders.
European Atherosclerosis Society FH Studies Collaboration (EAS-FHSC), set up in 2015, currently has a registry of over 28,000 FH cases (anticipated to attain 40,000 cases before the end of 2019). Publication of the first data analyses is planned for during 2019, providing robust information on the burden of both homozygous and heterozygous FH, how FH is detected and managed, and the clinical consequences of current practices on delivery of care and outcomes worldwide. This global initiative is led by Prof Kausik Ray (Imperial College London, UK) and Prof Alberico L. Catapano (Italy) and an executive committee comprising ; Dr. Tomas Freiberger (Czech Republic); Prof John Kastelein, Prof G.Kees Hovingh (Netherlands); Prof Pedro Mata (Spain); Dr Handrean Soran (UK); Prof Gerald Watts (Australia); Prof Frederick Raal (South Africa) and Prof Raul Santos (Brazil). The Coordinating Centre for the EAS FHSC is based at the Imperial Centre for Cardiovascular Disease Prevention (ICCP), School of Public Health, Imperial College London, UK.

PB.53: Are ethnic minorities more likely to develop triple-negative breast cancer? A systematic review
R Limbada1,
A Slater1 and
AK Jain2

Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor
Progesterone Receptor
Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 10 to 15% of diagnosed breast cancers worldwide. TNBC is negative for oestrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression, and is associated with a poor prognosis. Our study aims to systematically review the possible link between various minority ethnic groups and development of TNBC.
A systematic review of carefully selected studies was carried out with search of relevant articles in Medline, Science Direct and PubMed from 2005 up to 2013 with studies specifically aimed at TNBC. In the UK, receptor data have not been consistently recorded and involve smaller sample sizes. Hence, the relevant articles include ethnic groups from Asia Pacific and USA. Keywords were: triple negative, TNBC, ethnicity, incidence, prevalence. The data from all relevant articles were combined to give a sufficiently large sample size.
Complete receptor data were available for 72,763 cases, which constitute the sample group. On the available ethnicity data these were divided into five groups: Caucasian (n = 50,797), Black (n = 4,969), Asian (n = 6,909), Hispanic (n = 9,898) and other (n = 190). Overall there were 9,887 TNBC cases in the sample group with Caucasian (n = 5,956), Black (n = 1,341), Asian (n = 842), Hispanic (n = 1,732) and other (n = 16). Hence, overall 13.59% of all diagnosed breast cancers were TNBC with 11.73% in Caucasian, 26.99% in Black, 12.19% in Asian, 17.5% in Hispanic and 8.42% in other women.
Overall minority ethnic women have higher incidence of TNBC than Caucasian women with resultant poor prognosis. With rising minority ethnic population in the UK the overall number of TNBC will rise. Further research is required into the reasons for this.

Nearly seven months after the House oversight panel moved to impeach the Internal Revenue commissioner, the Judiciary Committee has announced two hearings on "misconduct" by John Koskinen, though the IRS has not confirmed that he will appear.
On May 24, the panel led by Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., will hear witnesses presenting the findings of the Oversight and Government Reform Committee on "the targeting of conservative groups for several years." The panel noted in a statement that "many of the committee's members have found that Commissioner Koskinen failed to comply with a congressional subpoena which resulted in destruction of key evidence, made false statements during his sworn congressional testimony, and did not notify Congress that [former IRS Exempt Organizations division head] Lois Lerner's emails were missing."
A second hearing in June will feature still unnamed outside experts "on the findings presented in the first hearing and whether further congressional action is warranted," the Judiciary Committee said in a Friday announcement noting that Koskinen will be invited.
"The fact that officials at the IRS wielded their power to target certain Americans for their political views is both outrageous and contrary to our nation's values," Goodlatte said. "As a result of the IRS' targeting, conservative groups were singled out across the nation, resulting in lengthy paperwork requirements, overly burdensome information requests, and lengthy, unwarranted delays in their applications."
Between now and the hearings, he added, the Judiciary panel will examine Koskinen's "misconduct and the implications of his actions" that, the statement said, "have consistently undermined the investigation."
Asked whether impeachment is on the agenda, a committee spokeswoman told Government Executive, "These are simply two hearings to methodically examine the allegations made against the IRS commissioner and whether additional congressional action is needed."
The IRS has not committed to having the commissioner appear. "Commissioner Koskinen and the IRS workforce remain focused on serving the nation's taxpayers," the agency said in a statement late Friday. "In addition to completing a successful filing season this spring, we continue making progress on a number of important issues involving taxpayer service, tax enforcement and cybersecurity."
Republicans appear divided on whether to proceed with the impeachment articles drafted by Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, with House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., having suggested last month that the matter might be better addressed next year. Koskinen was sworn in in December 2013—after a year with acting commissioners--for what by statute is a five-year term.

"In the Heat of the Moment" is a song by the English rock band Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. Written and produced by eponymous frontman Noel Gallagher, it was released on 17 November 2014 as the first single from the band's second studio album, Chasing Yesterday (2015).

Background
Written and produced by Gallagher, "In the Heat of the Moment" was the last song to be recorded for Chasing Yesterday. It is said to be "inspired by a documentary featuring an astronaut who likened going into space for the first time to 'touching the face of God'". Spin described the track as follows: "[It] is a subtly layered track, but its steady beat imbues it with a certain amount of tension – fitting, since it's about a journey into space – and the few odd bell chimes amid the guitars invoke a subtle sense of otherworldliness." The song was revealed on 13 October 2014, shortly after the initial announcement of the new album and tour dates.

A remix of the song by artist Toydrum is also featured on the cinematic trailer for Assassin's Creed Syndicate.

Music videos
Released on 23 October 2014, the music video for "In the Heat of the Moment" was directed by Ollie Murray. The video sees the band in a room filled with coloured lights. The style of the video has been compared to that of a number of Oasis songs, including "The Shock of the Lightning" by website PopMatters, and the United States version of "Live Forever" by magazine Spin, who described it as a "hazy, washed-out clip".

The B-side, "Do the Damage" also received a music video on 25 November 2014. It sees Noel observing a roller skate rivalry, and features Devon Ogden who starred in the video The Death of You and Me.

Critical reception
Spin magazine described it as "hypnotic", "a trip", and compared it to the 1994 Oasis album Definitely Maybe in style.
