Number of Universities Prof Nyongo Taught
By Onlinenews_Updater (self media writer) | 1 month ago
Professor Peter Anyang' Nyong'o is the governor of Kisumu county. At some time back, he taught at the University of Nairobi, El Colegio de Mexico, and Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia. Prof. Nyong'o entered the African Academy of Sciences and was appointed as the Head of Programs from 1987 to 1992.
Having been involved in the fight against the dictatorial rule in our country throughout his education path, Nyong'o was among the leaders who made it into several party politics in 1992.
He was first, voted to the Kenyan Parliament in 1992. He has laboured in various breadths since then. He was given a chance to be the Minister for Planning and National Development between 2003 and 2005 under former President Mwai Kibaki's regime. And from 2008 to 2013 he was appointed as the Minister for Medical Services.
In my viewpoint, our political leaders need to be learned. This will motivate our children.

Now also features VICS compatibility! Convert to a return system or simply open up that restricting OEM fuel system. The rail is CNC machined from extruded 6063 aluminum, media blasted, black anodized, and laser etched for a high quality surface finish. All 4 ports are machined with 8AN ORB (3/4-16 female) threads.
Like the OEM fuel rails, the injector bores are 11mm ID so factory injectors are permitted. This kit is compatible with all fuel types including popular alcohol mixtures such as E85. The OEM plastic spacers are reused and Phenolic washers are included to thermally insulate the fuel rail from the aluminum intake manifold.

I'm guess I received a different model as its a 3 port and not a 4 port as the one shown above. I don't mind the port missing, but what I didn't like is the cool radioactive logo on the left has been replaced with a boring radiumauto.com logo. I loved the look of the original rail design and I'm disappointed that mine won't look as sharp.
Many options for fuel routing, lookins incredible and feels of solid construction. Highly recommend pairing with a Skunk2 manifold as that intake manifold exposes this rail a lot.


Heat a large skillet over medium-high and add oil. Toss in onion, peppers, celery and garlic. Stir and cook for 5 min. Add ham, tomato and chicken broth and heat for 2 min. Stir in rice and seasonings and turn the heat very low. Cook for 20 min. Check to see that the rice is tender and add the shrimp. Lid again and cook for an additional 5 min. Serve hot.


By inventing the Cabinet noir, Cardinal Richelieu had created a prosperous enterprize (four staff, twenty-two agents, amongst whom in particular Napolitans specialized in the breaking of postal seals). Louis XV, ruler of twenty million subjects and himself subject to bouts of melancholy, was indeed ageing badly, did not drink and every morning was interested only by the Moral Report, reading material which informed him better than no matter who about the state of the kingdom, while at the same time rousing a little his old bile.
It was Françoise d'Aubigné, marchioness of Maintenon, who had had the idea of supplying irreproachable spouses to the deserving: therefore she founded the Demoiselles de la Croix de Saint-Louis, a mixture of distinction and dignity with a touch of patriotism for these "grognardes" in petticoats, that is, in black skirts and white shirts buttoned up to the neck; sleeping in uniform nightshirts (for as drummed in by a poet-brother of Scarron: "woman who shows teats and bottom by tight clothing makes it known to every man that her con demands food") in some one-hundred-and-thirty beds at the heart of monastic dormitories; not using make-up, nor cigarettes, not using bad language in the way of Madame Happy go Lucky; honouring with their feminine presence the balls of the military academies of the Crossbow or of the Sand, receiving the King on the day of the annual concert; getting up at 7h, going to bed at 21h30; greeting the Emperor's full-length portrait in the dining-hall, going out in troops, always shepherded (the people in the neighbourhood treating them as nuns and daddy's girls); - and respecting above all the tough commandments of the Poissard Catechism: "I ain't one of these easy-going girls - we' re not having lots of loves, and not one of these misses with furry lapdogs, who keep paramours - admiring the little Dervieux who had refused the 400 Louis in ringing cash, offer made by Lord Egremont, if she allowed him, just once, to put an arrow into her quiver; being indignant at the morals of the Tcherkessian Tatars who thought that in their community a woman would be dishonoured, if found to have as much as sighed at her husband's funeral, a ceremony where habitually, among other enjoyments, a fifteen-year-old girl was deflowered, within the sight of all, as if scoffing at nature; laughing at the princess Enrichemont who threatened her chambermaids, when furious at them, with having them f... by her lackeys (precisely the reason why they often annoyed her); taking offence at the ordinance of 27 August 1763 which ruled that all negroes and all negresses had to leave the kingdom and retire to the respective possessions of their masters in America, all those who weren't slaves duely sent to Cayenne, the reason for this expulsion being too marked an infatuation of white men for negresses and of white women for negroes; in a word, fearing God, without having other fears, unless that of being faced one day with the new ambassador at La Porte, like this Mehemet-Effendi whose lance could be lowered by Justine alone.

There are two reasons to love Annabelle's Diner (705 Taft, 713-523-9959). The first is its BYOD policy (bring your own dog) where, on the outdoor patio, four-legged friends are treated to some B&B (a bone and a bowl of water). The second is the creation of Annabelle's avocado pasta ($12.95), an off-the-menu special, which is LAFB (love at first bite). The centerpiece of this dish is a whole avocado that has been peeled then sliced down the middle, pitted and stuffed with a scrumptious crawfish au gratin mixture. The avocado is then reassembled, rolled in spicy bread crumbs and quickly pan-fried to crispen the exterior. Then the whole thing is placed on a bed of linguini tossed with slivers of garden veggies and topped off with a creamy white wine sauce. With a dish like this, it's easy to move from love to serious devotion.

I have to admit that I count grapefruit juice as a perfect mixer. Despite it's not as popular as lime juice, grapefruit juice brings richer flavour, fresher fragrance and unique bitter and tart aftertaste.
I prefer pink grapefruits because I think they give more constant taste than white ones. Pink grapefruit juice combines perfectly with gin, vodka and tequila. But does it work with scotch?
Recently I've found simple cocktail recipe at CocktailDB in which blended scotch mixes with grapefruit juice and dry vermouth. It's called Woodward, and I was going to learn how it works.
Trying various blended scotches, I've surprisingly found that here I like harsh whiskies such as Grant's or Dewar's White Label. They were strong enough to compete with juice and vermouth while my favourite White Horse got weakened in the presence of grapefruit juice that eventually harmed the cocktail taste.
So Dewar's White Label became my choice for the first experiment.
25 ml fresh grapefruit juice.
First sip comes with dry and smoky whisky flavour with delightful citrus notes. On the swallow it turns to fresh sour taste where winy and spicy hints of vermouth comes to the foreground.
With delicate dry aftertaste, this Woodward version is very bright thanks to unexpected smoky and peaty undertone I can't find in Dewar's White Label neat.
Later I've made this version stirred. The main difference was in more transparent and bitter taste but on the other hand the flavour became too sharp and inharmonious.
My next move was to try this recipe with better components so I prepared 12 years old scotch and elegant French vermouth.
20 ml fresh grapefruit juice.
This version starts with mellow grapefruit and moment later develops into subtle whisky flavour full of oak and earth tones. Pleasant bitter aftertastes of vermouth, grapefruit zest, leather and wood prevail in the finish.
For me, this Woodward cocktail is better because of its clear, smooth and well-balanced taste. But definitely these advantages are reverse side of lacking individuality. Which one do you prefer – with ordinary scotch or with aged one? What vermouth will be perfect for chosen scotch?
How about your own Woodward? Would you like to create it?

Seattle police Captain Dick Belshay retires after 34 years
By Steve Roberts
Q13 FOX
SEATTLE -- With mixed emotions, Seattle police Captain Dick Belshay will retire on Dec. 20th as the traffic commander, after a 34 year career, one marked by tremendous achievements, personal tragedy and through it all, a strong sense of faith.
1979 - Belshay's first bust
"My first arrest happened on my second work day," says Capt. Belshay. It was 1979. A black and white photo shows a young Officer Belshay with his gun drawn, after pursuing a reckless driver. "I had just an electric feeling going through my spine. I was new. I kind of followed the lead of everybody else. They got out of their cars. They`re drawing their guns, so I draw my gun and I`m thinking 'aww man, what`s gonna happen next here.'" Out of the corner of his eye, he could see the photographer who snapped the shot by climbing on a car. Turns out, it was Renton's mayor, Denis Law, working for a weekly newspaper back then. "Back in those days, I didn't use a lot of common sense, I just wanted to get there quickly. He was out there where the action was, and I think his commitment to his position as a police officer, and his love for the job was one of the reasons he was able to rise through the ranks."
Belshay and K9 'Tali'
Mayor Law also took a photo of Belshay as a K9 officer with partner, 'Tali', in the back seat. The pair were on their very first track, finding a guy who shot a deputy. Capt. Belshay remembers, "He had dug a hole and actually pulled a piece of dead log over himself, and was trying to hide, but the dog found him. We never had a better K9 track then that."
Belshay and Seattle police Chief John Diaz
For four years, he worked on Alki in West Seattle, at a time when it was really hopping -- a lot of drinking, a lot of fights – and his partner was future Seattle police Chief John Diaz. "We did have to scrap every once in a while," laughs Capt. Belshay. "Unfortunately, more often than not. We never got injured, but there were some hairy moments, truly."
Belshay with SPOG President, Rich O'Neill, on his right
Chief Diaz wasn't his only high-profile partner. In 1982, he and Rich O'Neill, who's now President of the Seattle Police Officers Guild, were honored for rescuing a six year old abused runaway. John Abraham is a motorcycle officer who's worked for Captain Belshay off and on for 9 years. "He's got a heart of gold," says Ofc. Abraham. "It's like putty. It's like a big box of ice cream if you put it underneath a microwave. I think he has a tendency to make people go above and beyond what they want to do, whether they like it or not." Captain Belshay is quick to say cops don't work for him -- they work with him -- a police family that helped him recover after a personal tragedy in 2005. His old partner, John Diaz, called and asked to visit him at his home. "Tears… that was the first moment where I realized something was wrong," an emotional Belshay says. "My son is also a Seattle police officer. The first thing I thought was that he had been killed." As bad as that would have been, he knows that danger comes with the job. What happened was much, much more painful. His daughter, Laurie, had just given birth 9 weeks earlier to his second grandson, when she died from an overdose of pain medication. She was 29. "I got the biggest beating of my life and nobody put a finger on me." Captain Belshay, who keeps a bible in his office overlooking the railroad tracks in Sodo, says his firm belief that 'God is good' is what held him together. That, and the support of his fellow officers. He says the loss of his daughter made him more compassionate, especially for people in need. Now, after years of getting up at 4:40am, he's looking forward to sleeping in. "The first day I'm not at work, I'm not going to get up with an alarm clock." He plans to travel with his wife, Melodie, and go jet skiing in Puget Sound. He says he'll stay connected to the department through his son, Bob, and sister, Karen, both still on the force. But, for Captain Belshay, his career in law enforcement is at an end and he leaves feeling proud. "I've committed myself on December 20th. I'm walking out the door with my head held high." To give you an example of the kind of officer he is, earlier this week, Captain Belshay handed out $10 Ivar's restaurant gift cards to 34 drivers and bicyclists who stopped for him in a crosswalk --One for each year he was on the force.

Is the Mario theme tune an accurate transcription?
The Stylophone is played by tapping and sliding the connected stylus along the touch-sensitive metal surface. Each segment on the surface plays a different note, the same as different keys on a piano. But unlike the piano, it's so simple to play that anyone can have a go – perfect for beginners!
In Super Mario Bros., the Ground Theme is used as the background music of all levels that take place outdoors, excluding underground, underwater, and castle levels. This encompasses level themes that would be given separate music in later games, such as athletic and night levels.
It is very easy and fun to use the instrument. Even though the stylophone started as a toy for kids, these days even serious musicians use it to add value to their music. This specific model is very easy to use which makes it perfect for beginners.
Super Mario Bros Theme easy piano letter notes sheet music for beginners, suitable to play on Piano, Keyboard, Flute, Guitar, Cello, Violin, Clarinet, Trumpet, Saxophone, Viola and any other similar instruments you need easy letters notes chords for.
This theme was originally produced by Nintendo entertainment in 1985. Koji Kondo was the composer of this popular theme which is set in C major key. He considers this theme to be the most difficult song of the album. The use of syncopation and scored as a calypso song by led drums makes the song better.
He considers this theme to be the most difficult song of the album. The use of syncopation and scored as a calypso song by led drums makes the song better. The sound was later installed with the best hardware which sounds more powerful. Following is the piano letter notes for the Mario bros.
A fairly accurate transcription of the Mario theme tune, if I may say so myself! It's pretty challenging and not easy to read (first song i've done with no lyrics…!) so good luck – it's super fun to play when you can work up to speed 🙂 Like it?

The living room has board games, books, and an entertainment center with a flatscreen TV, CDs, and a DVD player. There's a breakfast bar, coffeemaker, and high ceilings in the kitchen. Off to the side, there's a washer and dryer for guests to use as they wish. Both of the spacious, air-conditioned bedrooms have king beds, ensuite bathrooms, flatscreen TVs, DVD players, and access to the balcony. There are blinds to roll down for afternoon naps, and large dressers so guests can move in for the week.
This villa is only a 10 minute drive from the North Shore beaches, and 5 minutes from restaurants and groceries. The villa is on the most developed side of St. John, so there's plenty to explore.
A 6-min. drive from Cruz Bay and just 10-12 min. drive to the spectacular Northshore Beaches!
Stays of less than 7 nights require a $150 cleaning fee.
The villa was perfect for our needs and, as advertised, the view is outstanding. It was very comfortable and had everything that we needed for a day at the beach. We experienced a power outage and when the power came back on, the water pump did not work. We called the island representative for WhereToStay and Alfredo arrived very shortly to fix the problem. The house was perfect, and the level of service from Shawna and others at WhereToStay was top-notch. We would highly recommend them and Exotic View Villa.
The villa was amazing! It's very close to the town of Cruz Bay, less than a 5 minute drive. The villa itself is exceptional, with awesome views and two huge air-conditioned bedrooms. Each suite has its own bathroom with a double sink vanity and walk-in tile shower. The kitchen is modern and big, and the back balcony is a great place to soak in the view, grill and eat. The pool on the lower deck was clean and deeper than most villas' splash pools. The deep end is 6 feet deep. We will definitely be booking this villa on our next St. John trip.
Shawna was extremely helpful. Anytime I called she had the answers I needed and made booking a breeze. She helped me with the trip insurance as well when I had trouble securing that.
Beautiful views and villa! Very convenient to town.
Exotic View Villa has great views of St Thomas, the sunsets, and Cruz Bay. This villa is top-notch, clean, and cared for. This is our 6th visit to St John, and this villa was by far the nicest we've been to. It was clean, pristine, and everything was in order. The villa management team was always available, quick to answer questions, and eager to respond to any needs. Sherrolynn, Alfredo, and Maria were awesome! We called to have the gas container changed on the grill and Alfredo was there in 10 minutes! We would return again and had a peaceful, relaxing vacation while staying here.
The furnishings were excellent, with a comfortable king bed and everything needed for closets/dressers/etc. It had a top of the line kitchen that was beautiful and equipped with anything we needed for cooking, drinks, and space.
Working with Shawna was a pleasure, and she was always willing to answer any questions to make sure we were comfortable with our trip plans. She stayed in contact before, during, and after our trip to make sure we were happy and that all questions answered. I appreciated Shawna's knowledge of St John, and she knew exactly what we were looking for to match us with the right villa.
Beautiful garden villa with an amazing view of Cruz Bay in St. John.
Exotic View Villa was absolutely everything we wanted for our stay on St. John to celebrate our anniversary. From the beautiful garden courtyard to the breathtaking view of the bay from the pool, every part was beautiful and cozy. Everything was modern and well thought-out. We loved the patio in the back and enjoyed breakfast and several romantic dinners while watching the sunset with villa provisioning by Sam and Jacks. It was a perfect way to end our days. Every window offered a beautiful view of either the front garden or the bay and ocean. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need and plenty of room. I recommend villa provisioning for mornings out on the patio. The pool also had a wonderful view and was a great place to watch the sunset. We enjoyed the provided beach chairs and cooler for our trips to the beach. There is plenty of room for two couples traveling or for a couple looking for a romantic getaway. This was our first time to stay in a villa and not an all-inclusive resort. I think we will always do a villa now. Having the privacy and room was perfect. We were only a short drive away from restaurants, groceries, and the North End beaches. It was very quiet, peaceful, and offered privacy. Exotic View Villa offered the perfect accommodations for a much needed romantic trip.
We booked with Shawna a year before our trip after doing extensive research. Shawna was very helpful with finding a villa that matched our interests and what we were looking for. Even after Hurricane Irma and Maria, Shawna was very helpful and answered every question I had during an uncertain time. I loved how she was always quick to respond to my questions and very thorough. She provided many helpful tips and suggestions, and handled booking our transfers and car rental concerns. During our travel day, we experienced long delays and she was quick to respond to my emails. She also kept the car rental and our villa greeter updated on our flight situation. It gave me such peace to know she was looking out for us and our travel situation. I will definitely book with WhereToStay again. Everything was top-notch and we had an amazing anniversary trip on St. John.
This villa had it all - modern kitchen, renovated bathroom, and air conditioned bedrooms… but the BEST was the view of the water and St. Thomas from the deck and pool. So relaxing during the day, lit up and sparkling at night. Exactly the romantic getaway we were looking for.
Working with WhereToStay was easy and seamless. Shawna found a great rental, and provided excellent recommendations for restaurants and other amenities. I would have liked to know in advance that stocking the villa needed a 72-hour order. But we pre-ordered groceries anyway and they were waiting at the market when we arrived.
We had a great week! Our greeter was wonderful and accommodating when our flight was delayed. The villa was as beautiful as the pictures! Views were amazing! We loved spending mornings on the patio and the pool was perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. While the island breezes were great, I would recommend adding air conditioning to the main living area. The bedrooms had air conditioning and were very roomy and comfortable. If we go back to St John again we will definitely rent Exotic Villa again. Highly recommend!!
Sharon was very responsive and helpful from the beginning of the process until we left for vacation. She took time to answer my questions whenever I called and made planning the trip very turnkey. The taxi service she set us up with, Wheatley Taxi on St Thomas was wonderful. Would definitely recommend to others. Drivers were very nice, helpful and knowledgeable on the islands.
Exotic View has wonderful proximity to Cruz Bay, and is a lovely home. It offers great privacy for two couples. The restroom and mini fridge by the pool could be improved so there was less need to go up and down the stairs, and the driveway access is extremely rough. Other than that, it's a wonderful home.
Shawna was great and very helpful. Her written instructions were detailed and well-done.

Az ultrák a sportklubokat, de főként labdarúgócsapatokat támogató szurkolói csoportok egy jellegzetes stílussal rendelkező válfaja, leginkább az európai és dél-amerikai labdarúgó csapatok mérkőzésein találkozhatunk velük. Kultúrájuk leglátványosabb része azokból a képekből és koreográfiákból áll, amiket a meccs alatt a stadionokban mutatnak be.

Története

Az ultramozgalom eredete máig vitatott.

Magyarországon az első ilyen jellegű csoport Kispesten jelent meg 1991-ben ULTRA RED BOYS néven..

Olaszországban, az 1960-as évek elején bukkant fel, amikor az egyesületek jelentősen leszállították a stadionok bizonyos szektoraiba szóló belépőjegyek árát. Maga az ultra szó latin eredetű, jelentése "ami túl van". A '90-es évek óta az ultra, az Angliában kifejlődött casual és huliganizmus köré gyakorlatilag teljes szubkultúra fejlődött.

Jellegzetességek
A csoport általában egy szűkebb vezetői szerepkört birtokló mag körül épül ki, (ők irányítják az egész csoportot) míg a létszám a kisebb csoportokból szerveződik össze, melyek összetételét meghatározhatják baráti vagy lokális szálak, esetleg az azonos politikai nézet. Általában az idősebbek szavát a fiatalok feltétel nélkül elfogadják, fontos a hierarchikus felépítés.

A csoportok rendelkeznek különböző méretű transzparensekkel, drapériákkal, zászlókkal melyeken a csoport neve és jelképe található. Némelyik csoport legyártatja és árusítja a saját termékeit, mint pl: sálat, sapkát, pulóvert vagy kabátot. Egy csoport létszáma a néhány főtől a több százig terjedhet és a stadionokban általában elválasztanak a részükre egy vagy akár több szektort is. Saját weblap illetve fanzine szintén fontos részét képezi a mozgalomnak. A mozgalom íratlan szabályai:

Az ultrák a meccsek folyamán minden esetben állnak
Lehetőség szerint, a távolságok és anyagi akadályok ellenére minden meccsen meg kell jelenni otthon és idegenben
Szünet nélkül támogatni (énekelni, tapsolni) kell a csapatot, az eredmény alakulásától függetlenül
Állandó törzshely a stadionon belül

Ultrák a meccsen

A nagy rangadókra általában látvánnyal, koreográfiával készülnek a csoportok. Ezek kivitelezése akár hetekig is eltarthat. A koreográfiák mérete, kidolgozottsága a csoport anyagi helyzetétől illetve az előkészítő munkában résztvevők létszámától, tehetségétől, ötletességétől is függ. Ezek témája általában a klub vagy a csoport dicsőítése, esetleg az ellenfél kigúnyolása lehet (de a kettő kombinációja is gyakori), esetleg más aktualitás. Az élőképekhez gyakran görögtüzeket, füstbombákat és egyéb pirotechnikai eszközöket is felhasználnak, a kartonlapok, lufik, papírfecnik, pénztárgépszalagok vagy műanyagcsíkok mellett. Gyakori technika az egész szektort beterítő, általában műanyagfóliából készített óriás zászló, amelyre előzetesen festik rá az aktuális témát.

A látványelemeket a mérkőzést megelőzően – méretétől függően akár több órával a meccs előtt – szállítják a helyszínre, ahol elvégzik az esetleges utómunkálatokat. A bemutatóra a csapatok bevonulásakor kerül sor. Minden csoport rendelkezik egy saját szimbólummal, címerrel. Ez sokféle lehet, gyakoriak az erőt és hűséget jelképező buldogok vagy egyéb harciasságot, nemességet tükröző állatok a címerben (oroszlán, sárkány, párduc), esetleg pajzs alakú címer évszámokkal, rövidítésekkel. Nem ritkán politikai jellegűek is lehetnek (Che Guevara-arckép, sarló és kalapács, kelta kereszt), esetleg könnyedebbek, mint sörös korsó, rajzfilmfigura vagy marihuána levél. Maga a szurkolás (kórus) fontos részét képezi a mérkőzés közben megoldandó feladatoknak. A nagyobb csoportokat megafonnal irányítja az előénekes, ezáltal lesz egységes a produkció. Fülbemászó slágerek átköltései adják a repertoár nagy részét (Pl: Guantanamera, Ének az esőben, Go West, stb…) Gyakori az utált ellentábor szidalmazása is – abban az esetben is, ha az nem egyezik meg a pillanatnyi ellenféllel –, ami gyakran szintén dalban foglalva valósul meg. Megemlítendőek még a taps, fütty, ugrálás, hajlongás kombinációk is. A mérkőzések jellemző képe a kerítésmászás is, amely a gólöröm egy felhevültebb kifejezési formája.

Politika

Magyarországon nem nevezhetünk kifejezetten csoportokat úgy politikai jellegűnek, mint klasszikus értelemben az olaszországi ultrák közül a Laziót vagy Livornót. Magyarországon a többség, ha már politikai nézetet kell megosztani a nagyközönséggel, akkor inkább a jobboldal, de inkább a szélsőjobb felé tendálódik (Ferencváros, Újpest, Kispest, Debrecen, Diósgyőr, Nyíregyháza, Zalaegerszeg). Baloldali tábor volt korábban a Székesfehérvár és Pécs.

Külföldön teljesen más a helyzet. Olaszországban megtalálhatóak a klasszikusan szélsőjobboldali táborok (Lazio, Verona, Ascoli, Inter) és a klasszikusan szélsőbaloldali táborok (Livorno, Atalanta, Pisa) is, sőt, arra is van példa, hogy egy csapat szurkolótáborán belül megtalálhatók a jobb- és baloldali beállítottságú csoportok (Milan,Roma). Spanyolországban a Real Madrid ultrái erősen jobboldaliak, míg ott színezik a képet a katalán és baszk csapatok is, amelyek erős függetlenedési törekvéseikkel sokszor szemet szúrnak a többi spanyol csapatnak.

Nemzetközileg kijelenthető, amelyik tábor vagy csoport vállalja politikai hovatartozását, azt zászlókkal, graffitikkel, dalokkal stb. módon ki is fejezik. Nem ritka például a Lazio meccseken a keltakeresztes zászlók megjelenése vagy Livornóban a Lenint ábrázoló kétrudasok és sarló-kalapácsos, vörös csillagos zászlók és transzparensek, de az utóbbi években – főleg a 2006-os év erőteljes belpolitikai események következményeként – hazánkban is terjed a nemzeti szimbólumok, így az árpád-sávos zászló, a Nagy-Magyarország valamint a turulmadár használata.

Rivalizálás
A rivalizálás különböző okokból adódhat, jellemzően lehet politikai szembenállás, vagy a legfőbb városi riválisok közötti, illetve egy szűkebb régión belül is gyakori, hogy a "szomszédvárak" ultrái gyűlölik egymást.

Magyarországon

A leghíresebb szembenállás egyértelműen a Fradi-Újpest, ennek van a legnagyobb hagyománya és ennek a két csapatnak a tábora a legnagyobb. Szintén jelentős még a fővárosban a Honvéd-Fradi,Honvéd-Újpest és a Honvéd-Vasas is. Vidéken futballban a Fehérvár-Győr, Diósgyőr-Nyíregyháza, Debrecen-Békéscsaba, Debrecen-Nyíregyháza, Haladás-ZTE, Nagykanizsa-ZTE, ZTE-Győr, Pécs-Komló, Pécs-Fehérvár, Pécs-Kaposvár, Siófok-Kaposvár, Tatabánya-Győr, Celldömölk-Tatabánya, Celldömölk-ZTE, Szeged-Békéscsaba, Cegléd-Vecsés. Sok fővárosi-vidéki csapat sem szívleli egymást, de alakultak ki barátságok is jó példája volt korábban ennek a Újpest, Békéscsaba, Újpest Angyalföld, Fehérvár, Debrecen, Diósgyőr hármas; de ezek az idők javarészt elmúltak. Továbbra is a Kaposvár-Kecskemét, a Haladás-Kecskemét, a Kispest-Haladás, a Nyíregyháza-Győr, a Győr-Békéscsaba, a Győr-Vasas, a Haladás-Celldömölk, a Nyíregyháza-Dorog, a Csepel-Dorog és a Ferencváros-Zalaegerszeg szurkolói közti alakult ki jó kapcsolat.

Futballon kívül jelentős még a kézilabda (itt szinte csak női vonalon), itt ki lehet emelni a Győr-Dunaújváros, Békéscsaba-Debrecen, Hódmezővásárhely-Békéscsaba, Ferencváros-Debrecen, Győr-Ferencváros, Vác-Érd párosításokat.Férfi kézilabdában a Veszprém-Szeged, Mezőkövesd-Gyöngyös, Kunszentmárton-Kiskunfélegyháza.Férfi kosárlabdában említést érdemel a Körmend-Szombathely-ZTE, a Hódmezővásárhely-Szolnok, a Szolnok-Alba Fehérvár, a MAFC-Honvéd, a Kaposvár-Pécs és a Dombóvár-Kaposvár párosítás is. Kosaras barátságok aFalco-ASE, Honvéd-Falco, ZTE-Sopron, OSE-Kaposvár, OSE-Honvéd és OSE-Békés. A megyei bajnokságokban is vannak kisebb ultra csoportok mint pl.: Magico Ultras (Mezőkövesd), ULTRAS OKÁNY KSK (Okány), Ultras Eger (Eger), Sárga Ultrák (Tamási).

Filmek
Keménymag (Ultra), Futball Faktor, a BBC dokumentumfilmjei, Discoveryn vetített Futball Huligánok dokumentumfilmjei sokszor közösen kezelik az ultrákat a huligánokkal, de jellegzetesen bemutatják az adott ország szurkolói kultúráját.

Comparing Alibaba and Amazon
The e-commerce marketplace keeps on growing as more people prefer the convenience of buying goods online. Amazon and Alibaba are notable players in the e-commerce field who operate via an online presence only. Each has unique features making them purely e-commerce businesses, but their respective business models are different. Amazon is a substantive retailer for new and used products while Alibaba acts as a middleman connecting buyers and sellers.
Amazon has been performing great and is regarded as the largest online retailer worldwide. However, recent data from financial analysts indicates that Alibaba is performing better than Amazon. In the previous year, Alibaba's stock increased more than Amazon, and it's market cap was within striking distance to surpass Amazon. That year, Alibaba recorded sales of more than $240 billion on its platform which was more than eBay and Amazon combined (Bloomberg, 2019). Amazon's stock went up by only 30 percent while Alibaba's nearly doubled. In addition to this, Alibaba stands to be the most shorted company globally by a mile. Its short positions total close to $23 billion while Amazon's is close to $5 billion.
Both companies receive a high valuation from financial analysts. Alibaba, which is a Chinese tech giant has 47 brokers covering it, and none of them has a sell rating. Recent records from the analysts place the company's mean target price at $197.51 which is almost 15 percent higher than where the company's shares stand today. Amazon, on the other hand, has 44 analysts covering it of which only one has given the company a sell rating. The analysts have given Amazon a sell rating of about 17 percent from its mean target price of $1,150.46. Among the reasons investors prefer Alibaba as a proxy for China is because shorting Alibaba is considered a way to bet against China's economic growth and broad stock markets.
The potential growth prospects for Amazon appear favorable despite several people in the market coming up with theories of what can go wrong with the company. The company has exceeded expectations as it invests in other businesses beyond e-commerce boosting its bottom line. Amazon might not have retained much earnings over the years, but has seen an increase in the scope of its business activities to a massive level. Since 2015, Amazon's stock has seen a sharp increase from around $300 to its value today of $1,640 (Amazon, 2019). The company's revenue has been increasing at a rate of 25.97% annually for the last three years.
Moreover, it has a 28% annual growth rate in net income and a 3% net margin. Based on these prospects, Amazon looks to be worth $6000 per share in 10 years (Amazon, 2019). Alibaba on the other hand also indicates favorable potential growth prospects as it is growing fast taking over the e-commerce industry. The company announced last year that its revenue reached $11.8 billion, an increase of close to 61% from their previous results (Bloomberg, 2019). In addition to this, the company expanded to offer services in the cloud computing business that generated revenues of about 5 billion Yuan in its first quarter. Despite both companies having a positive growth prospect, Amazon would be better to add to an investment portfolio since the company has seen a steady increase in the value of its shares year in year out. Investors, therefore, look to always gain if they choose to invest in the company.
Amazon has better quantitative and qualitative accounting metrics when compared to Alibaba. The company's financial reports contain substantive details on its profit margins, debt ratios and earnings multiple and the value of its shares. Details on Amazon's unquantifiable information including management expertise, the strength of development and research, labor relations and industry cycles are made available by the company as part of its accounting analysis (Amazon, 2019). Alibaba, on the other hand, does not have sufficient information relating to its accounting assessments. This is because the company went public recently as its initial public offer was on September 2014 (Bloomberg, 2019). However, analysis of its revenue, net income, and total assets is available.
Some non-accounting factors also indicate that Amazon looks to outperform Alibaba in terms of the company with more influence online. One of these factors is the venturing of both companies in offering cloud computing services (Bloomberg, 2019). Amazon is doing better despite the heavy competition from other tech giants specializing in the same such as Google. Another factor is the customer service of both companies. Amazon has an excellent customer service not only online in the simple purchasing process, but also in the delivery of the purchases to the customers, which arrive at the shortest possible time. These factors have proved to be a challenge for Alibaba.
Alibaba's corporate governance includes several positions such as executive chairman and vice-chairman, CEO, a board of directors made up of top managers, directors and independent directors (Bloomberg, 2019). Some of these top managers are the CFO, CTO,CRO and a president of wholesale marketplaces. Amazon's corporate governance consists of a board of directors, managers and an audit committee that oversees its board of directors. Both Amazon and Alibaba are socially responsible as stated in their CSR reports. Amazon does not tolerate any form of bribery by its employees, consultants, officers or any individual and company acting on their behalf. Also, the company is active in supporting the local community by not only creating jobs at its premises in Surrey but also by training future talent through its apprenticeship program for kids who are sixteen years or older (Amazon Filters, 2019). Alibaba provides responsible working conditions for all its workers and anyone undertaking work within its facilities. The company's working wages and hours including overtime are fair and comply with the local laws and also those that relate to working time regulations and minimum wage. Amazon's independence in governing managers makes the company better when compared to Alibaba. They are encouraged to speak their minds and if need be disagree with the standard ways of doing things. Amazon's managers are expected to have a mindset of a business owner and to be obsessed with the customer experience.
Alibaba recently fully acquired the online ticketing platform Damai.cn, after their merger in 2014. The acquisition is part of the company's entertainment strategy. Damai.cn will be a powerful platform for distributing media content and also grow their reach and engagement. Amazon, on the other hand, acquired Whole Foods Market last year at a whopping $13.7 billion, the company's largest-ever acquisition ( CB Information Services, Inc, 2018). The acquisition is a reflection of the expanding ambition in the grocery and brick and mortar space. The acquisition gives the company a stronger position in the delivery of groceries that maximizes on Whole Foods' loyal and large consumer base.

Q: Explaining the numbers in a decision tree Using the famous Iris data set with Julia decision tree classifier I get the following tree.
using RDatasets
using DecisionTree
iris = dataset("datasets", "iris")
features = convert(Array, iris[:, 1:4])
labels = convert(Array, iris[:, 5]);
model = build_tree(labels, features)
model = prune_tree(model, 0.9)

print_tree(model)
Feature 3, Threshold 3.0
L-> setosa : 50/50
R-> Feature 4, Threshold 1.8
    L-> Feature 3, Threshold 5.0
        L-> versicolor : 47/48
        R-> Feature 4, Threshold 1.6
            L-> virginica : 3/3
            R-> Feature 1, Threshold 7.2
                L-> versicolor : 2/2
                R-> virginica : 1/1
    R-> Feature 3, Threshold 4.9
        L-> Feature 1, Threshold 6.0
            L-> versicolor : 1/1
            R-> virginica : 2/2
        R-> virginica : 43/43

I can't really interpret the numbers after some of the branches, like "setosa : 50/50" or "virginica : 3/3".
Could somebody explain what those mean?

A: It looks like that on node "setosa : 50/50" 50 flowers was classified correctly (50 flowers was turned into this node and 50 are setosa)
versicolor : 47/48 means that one of them is virginica or setosa.

Thousands flock to Ipswich as new music festival Sound City gets underway
PUBLISHED: 20:56 04 October 2019 | UPDATED: 20:56 04 October 2019

A new music festival which aims to encourage touring bands to visit Ipswich has got underway with live music at the Cornhill.
Sound City is set to feature 23 bands performing across several venues across the Suffolk town, with the aim of uniting residents behind the cause to draw more touring bands.
Earlier on in the day a conference featuring artists, venues, promoters and industry figures showcased Ipswich as a viable location for touring artists to play.
The Cornhill is now the venue for bands to warm up the crowds before three gigs get underway at the Corn Exchange, Manor Ballroom and The Smokehouse featuring local and touring bands.
Hundreds have already gathered at the Cornhill for the start of the music.
Lauren Astbury and her husband decided to come to support the event.
She said: "You don't really get this kind of thing in Ipswich very often.
"There are actually some really good bands around here. I think we should probably make an effort a bit more.
"It's a good idea, hopefully if enough people come out some bigger bands might come here."
Other activities are going on such as coffee shop acoustic gigs, DJ sets, workshops and a free BBC Introducing gig are also being lined up.
The arts council-funded festival aims to change those perceptions, and wants more than 1,000 people will attend the gigs.
The Corn Exchange and Regent traditionally only attract heritage acts which tend to play more UK dates, while Ipswich Town Football Club has hosted occasional big concerts such as Rod Stewart, Elton John, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Pink in previous years.
Chantry Park also saw home grown superstar Ed Sheeran perform over four nights this summer.

How to Watch SpaceX's Falcon 9 Launch Monday
By Peter Hess
Filed Under Innovation, Elon Musk, Space Travel & Streaming
Update: SpaceX has delayed the launch due to adverse weather conditions. The new launch is scheduled for January 14, at 12:54 p.m. EST.
On Sept. 1, 2016, SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket exploded on the launch pad while being fueled for a static fire test. SpaceX has scheduled its first launch since the explosion for this Monday, January 9. at 10:22 a.m. PST at Vanderberg Air Force Base in California — assuming that the weather will cooperate, of course. Monday's forecast is currently calling for scattered showers, so hopefully all will go smoothly.
And what fun is private space flight if we can't get involved? You can tune in to watch the launch live from the comfort of your own home (or on your computer at work). As usual, SpaceX will broadcast the launch via its webcast, so you can vicariously experience the thrill of shaking loose the tyrannical force of gravity. We will update this story with more specifics as they are made available.
This event will be a big deal for the company, whose last successful launch was in August 2016, when it sent a Japanese communication satellite up and safely landed on a droneship in the Atlantic Ocean.
The Falcon 9 rocket will carry ten Iridium Communications satellites into Earth's orbit. Six more launches, each carrying ten satellites, are scheduled to follow this launch.
This launch has already made it further than September's did, with Iridium announcing a successful static test fire on Jan. 6. Iridium tweeted the announcement, and SpaceX's official account retweeted it.
Iridium is excited to share we're planned to launch on Monday, Jan 9 at 10:22am PST weather permitting. https://t.co/wiHgvdD6lk #IridiumNEXT
— Iridium Corporate (@IridiumComm) January 6, 2017
According to SpaceX's latest anomaly report, the explosion was caused by a failure in "one of the three composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs) inside the second stage liquid oxygen." And while this failure exposed itself during preparations for a static test fire, the recent successful static test fire makes us hopeful that they won't run into this same problem again. Of course, there's always the possibility that a new problem arises, but let's not focus too much on that until it's time. Let's tune in on Monday and hope for the best.

So, you usually have vandalism in trains, buses with scratching, tagging, hole digging in seats, etc.
a funny coincidence was found by a bus operator. They added a free wlan offering on several of the buses operating longer overland school ways.
The result was that the damages nearly stopped.
When they noticed that, they put it in more and more of their buses to get similar results - successfull.
Comparing the repair effort of the damages to the operational costs of the WLAN seems to be an easy calculation - it pays off.
Heh... the vandalism likely happened out of boredom. With the Wifi available, the boredom went away (as well as the vandalism). Interesting!

Canada's Imperial Oil vows disclosure after parent Exxon shares new pollution data
By Carl Meyer
Canada's Imperial Oil says it will update its carbon pollution disclosure "in the coming months," after parent company Exxon Mobil pulled back the curtain for the first time on emissions from the use of its own products.
Exxon bowed to investor pressure and released information this week showing the carbon pollution that is generated when its products are used, such as when the gasoline sold at company-affiliated gas stations is combusted inside people's car engines.
This measurement of pollution, known by its technical term "Scope 3," accounts for between 70 and 80 per cent of life cycle emissions for most oil companies, according to the Pembina Institute.
Exxon's Scope 3 emissions, the company admitted in its 2021 Energy and Carbon Summary, were equivalent to 730 megatonnes (Mt) of carbon dioxide in 2019. That puts Exxon, one of the largest oil and gas companies in the world, roughly on par with Canada's entire emissions output of 729 Mt in 2018.
Financial experts have suggested for years that firms move towards disclosing these emissions. Canada's federally appointed expert panel on sustainable finance, for example, recommended in June 2019 that corporations should begin preparing to "disclose, if appropriate, Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions" and related risks. Two years before that, the Switzerland-based Financial Stability Board said the same thing.
"We need oil companies to phase out their fossil fuel production in line with what the climate science demands, and reporting Scope 3 emissions instead of ignoring them is a small step towards that," said Oil Change International research analyst Bronwen Tucker.
Environmental groups, however, say the Canadian oil and gas sector is lagging when it comes to publicly disclosing this measurement of carbon pollution, at least to the fullest extent possible.
The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, the main industry group, did not respond to multiple requests for comment. The Canadian Fuels Association declined comment, while the Petroleum Services Association of Canada said it was not in a position to respond before publication.
In response to questions about whether the company would be making Scope 3 emissions data available to the Canadian public following its parent company's move, Imperial Oil spokesperson Lisa Schmidt said: "We will provide an update on our emissions disclosure within our sustainability report in the coming months."
Suncor, a large Canadian energy company, does disclose Scope 3 emissions, according to the Transition Pathway Initiative, which bills itself as a "corporate climate action benchmark" that assesses how companies are preparing for the low-carbon economy.
But Tucker argued that the Scope 3 data in the company's Climate Risk and Resilience Report for 2020 represented an incomplete picture as it focused on its own refineries. A request for comment to Suncor was not returned before publication.
Imperial and other companies do publish what's known as "Scope 1" and "Scope 2" emissions data, which refer to the carbon pollution from an energy company's own operations, like crude oil production, as well as those emissions associated with the electricity that the company consumes.
In Canada, much of the attention on rising emissions from the oilpatch have been focused on these kinds of measurements. Greenhouse gas emissions from oil and gas production climbed 23 per cent over the last roughly two decades, for example, largely due to increased production.
Oilpatch firms have also invested in technology that can decrease these kinds of emissions as well as their emissions intensity.
Cenovus Energy, another large Canadian company, said it currently reports Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions in its Environmental, Social and Governance Report for 2019. Cenovus recently merged with oilpatch firm Husky Energy in a $6-billion deal.
"ESG (environmental, social and governance) leadership will remain core to the combined company," said spokesperson Sonja Franklin.
"This includes ambitious ESG targets, robust management systems and transparent performance reporting. We will also maintain our ambition of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050."

No confundir con Claudio Apolinar ni Apolonio de Alejandría

Apolonio de Roma, fue un presbítero romano y mártir cristiano, venerado como santo por la Iglesia Católica. Su fiesta se celebra el 10 de abril.

Hagiografía

Las fechas de nacimiento y muerte de Apolonio son discutidas. Se afirma que su martirio ocurrió en el siglo VI, puesto que se asocia a Máximo con su ejecución.

Se le asocia con varios compañeros de martirio, que según las fuentes pueden variara en número hasta cinco (5) personas.

Luego de ser asesinados, sus cuerpos fueron arrojados al mar, de donde fueron recuperados y enterrados con los honores propios de un cristiano.

Los únicos hechos ciertos de su vida son su propia existencia, su calidad de presbítero, su relación con Alejandría, y su martirio.

Editors' Summary: The first Ruckelshaus EPA Superfund settlement was concluded recently between the federal government and a group of companies that generated hazardous wastes found at the Environmental Conservation and Chemical Co. (Enviro-Chem) disposal site in Zionsville, Indiana. Mr. Bernstein, cochairman of the generators' steering committee in the negotiations, describes how the parties resolved the critical issues of allocating liability among the generators and establishing a practical mechanism for operating the cleanup trust fund that will pay for cleaning up the site. In addition, he outlines the complaints that the generators have filed against the owners and operators of the site and their insurance carriers, the first suit for reimbursement among Superfund parties.
Editors' Summary: Supreme Court review in Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. and congressional reauthorization offer the possibility at last of clarification of the role of the bubble policy in implementing the Clean Air Act. Professor Rhinelander reviews the administrative and judicial histories of the bubble policy, concluding that it should be applied liberally, but that Congress and the D.C. Circuit have left too many obstacles in EPA's path. Turning to the pending Supreme Court action, he argues that the court can and should tear down an unnecessarily large barrier recently erected by the D.C. Circuit but that only amendments to the Act will allow realization of the full potential of the bubble policy.
Editors' Summary: Recent OSHA and EPA regulations will promote investigation and disclosure of the health hazards posed by toxic substances. The regulations will also provide potential plaintiffs with the information they need to win product liability suits. Mr. Atkeson analyzes recent rules and statutory provisions that may affect product liability exposure. He concludes that although the new laws will encourage suits, the laws ultimately will reduce toxic exposures and promote equitable assessment of victim compensation costs.
Editors' Summary: In Avoyelles Sportsmen's League, Inc. v. Marsh, the Fifth Circuit ruled that bottomland hardwood wetlands cannot be converted into farmland without an FWPCA §404 permit. The court endorsed EPA's broad interpretatin of wetlands and established a deferential standard for review of EPA wetland determinations. The author analyzes these rulingsand the changing role of the courts in the implementation of §404.
The Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) recently issued a proposed memorandum, 48 Fed. Reg. 36486 (1983), for federal agencies concerning the implementation of CEQ's "worst case anslysis" regulation, 40 C.F.R. 1502.22, ELR REG. 46023, promulgated under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The regulation provides for a "worst case" analysis in environmental impact statements (EISs) in rare but important circumstances. The basic requirements of the rule are simple—if an agency would like to do something which may have severe environmental consequences and it does not know what the effects will be and either cannot find out (i.e. it is beyond the state of the art), or is unwilling to pay the cost of finding out, it must at least determine and take a look at the worst that might happen before it plunges ahead. The proposed guidance memorandum would create an "initial threshold" of "reasonably foreseeable impacts or effects" before a "worst case" analysis would be required. "Potential adverse impacts" with an extremely low probability of occurrence would not be subject to analysis because they do not meet the threshold.
At first blush, any proposal calling for reasonable foreseeability is compelling. For several reasons, however, the proposal is not a reasonable interpretation of the worst case rule and is, indeed, downright harmful. It would not only gut the purpose of the rule, but is contrary to existing case law and previous CEQ interpretation of the rule, and to judicial interpretations of NEPA prior to the rule's promulgation.

quent cause to admire the threads which he finds strung across the water-courses, and fastened to the trees on the opposite sides. The threads of these spiders are of different kinds, and proceed from different glands. The silk which is wrapped around the cocoons is not the same that is spun in the webs, and may be of an entirely different color. The silks of various Epeiræ were brought to Europe by travelers in the seventeenth century, and excited admiration by their fineness and brilliancy. Experiments were tried in making cloth and gloves from them, but they were found to have no powers of endurance. Louis XIV, wishing to encourage a new art, had a coat made of the silk, but was glad to take it off the first day, for it suffered a rent every time he moved. These efforts appear to have been made with the silk of the webs. That unrolled from the cocoons proved to be stronger. M. Bon, in 1709, carded from the cocoons a silk which he described as much finer and stronger than ordinary silk, and which, he claimed, was fitted to make any kind of fabrics. In Spain, Raymondo María de Tremezer, between 1777 and 1791, made several articles as bright and fine as silk from the threads of the Epeira diadema. Mr. Rolt, an English merchant, was able to exhibit to the Society of Arts a specimen thread twenty thousand feet long, that had been spun by twenty-two spiders in less than two hours, and which was five times as fine as the thread of the silk-worm! Alcide d'Orbigny asserted that he had garments, able to sustain considerable wear, made in South America from spiders' silk.
Food and Civilization.—M. Beketoff, a Russian hygienist, has expressed some novel views in a paper on "The Alimentation of the Human Race in the Present and the Future." Physiologists are accustomed to consider a mixed diet, of which meat shall constitute about one third, to be the best for mankind in general, and to be almost essential to the best development. M. Beketoff does not consider this view to be well founded, or sustained by the facts as they appear on examination of the diet of the best races. A large majority of mankind do not use meat, nor a mixture of meat and vegetables, but vegetables alone, as food. The people of Europe consume more meat than those of any other part of the Old World, but most of it is used in the cities, while the country people enjoy only a small fraction of the quantity which the physiologists say they need, and it has come to that point that, in the most civilized part of the world, meat is only not wholly left out of the list of common foods. In the most populous and most civilized parts of Asia, as in China and India, cattle-raising is quite insignificant, and in Japan can hardly be said to exist at all. The Africans raise cattle, but live chiefly on vegetables. Only in North and South America and Australia is meat consumed on a really large scale. Not only the relative, but the absolute number of cattle also, shows a tendency to diminish as the population increases and the ground is more devoted to tillage; so that the prospect is apparent that, with the continuous development of agriculture, industries, civilization, and population, cattle-raising will pass into real insignificance, and the mass of men will be unable to obtain animal food. Sources of vegetable food must be found, to supply its place, among the plants richest in albuminous substances. The legumes are the most prominent of these plants. To determine the power of beans to sustain all the functions of life, Dr. Virochiloff performed a series of experiments upon himself, by eating regularly equal quantities of bread and sugar, and adding to them for a certain time meats, for another period peas. The result was, in his own words, that "both the mixtures quite fulfilled the purpose of nutrition, as was proved by the same weight of body being kept up and the forces being maintained in the same state by either food." The meat-mixture was, however, assimilated more readily than that of which the peas formed a part. It is affirmed that men occupied in intellectual work especially need a mixed food; but of this we are not certain, not knowing on what those whose intellectual achievements have been greatest have really lived; and many of them have been very irregular eaters. Taking the history of the human race as a whole, we may observe that races living almost exclusively on meat have been and are the most savage ones. The prehistoric "finds" show that the beginnings

Biopharmaceutical Representative Joins New Antibiotic Resistance Fighting United Nations Group to Avert Looming Superbugs Public Health
20 November 2020, The World Health Organization, the Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Organization for Animal Health announced today the creation of the One Health Global Leaders Group on Antimicrobial Resistance (Global Leaders Group). This new United Nations high-level group will include Kenneth Frazier, Chairman of the board and chief executive officer at MSD, whose company is a member of the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Associations (IFPMA). The Global Leaders Group has been established to advocate for urgent action to combat the threat of antimicrobial resistance and the IFPMA welcomes the opportunity for the pharmaceutical industry to be directly represented alongside other key stakeholders including heads of state, government ministers, and leaders of civil society organizations.
Superbugs that are resistant to existing antibiotics already take an enormous toll on health-care systems around the world. About 700,000 people globally die each year due to antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Without strong action to ensure appropriate use of existing antibiotics, as well as new and better treatments, that figure could rise to ten million by 2050.
The biopharmaceutical industry has been advocating for long needed action to avert accelerating crisis of drug resistance; but it has been a first mover in addressing some of the challenges. In July 2020, the new AMR Action Fund was launched, stepping in to save the collapsing antibiotic pipeline with pharmaceutical industry investment of US$1 billion. AMR Action Fund aims to bring two to four novel antibiotics to the market by 2030 and is one of the largest and most ambitious collaborative initiatives ever undertaken by the pharmaceutical industry to respond to a global public health threat. The biopharmaceutical industry has also joined forces with the diagnostics, generics and biotech industries through the AMR Industry Alliance, a unique 100 member strong life-science industry group established in 2017. This group's achievements include a breakthrough in the responsible manufacturing of antibiotics and positive steps to improve how patients access and use antibiotics.
"Antimicrobial resistance remains an urgent threat to all of us, both during this pandemic and beyond, and we all must do our part – as individuals, as organizations, and as a global community. I am honored to represent MSD and the research-based biopharmaceutical industry on the One Health Global Leaders Group. This partnership is an exemplar of the multi-sectoral collaboration and One Health approach that are necessary to accelerate progress against the critical issue of antimicrobial resistance." Said Kenneth Frazier, Chairman of the board and chief executive officer at MSD.
Welcoming in Frazier's appointment, IFPMA Director-General, Thomas Cueni said: "We are delighted to see Kenneth Frazier bring his unique expertise to this group. AMR is a looming global crisis that has the potential to dwarf COVID-19 in terms of deaths and economic costs. Tackling AMR requires a fundamental change in how society values new antibiotics, and government incentives that reward companies for successfully developing them. This year MSD is one of over 20 biopharmaceutical companies that have invested in the AMR Action Fund. Frazier's appointment will hopefully help us move from talk to action."


Chinese officials have announced that the Christians who attend churches which are not backed by government will not be eligible to receive welfare of insurance funds from the government. This announcement will directly affect the elderly Christians who are eligible to receive welfare assistance from the government.
Previously in a similar offensive against Christians, the government issued an ultimatum warning Christian parents that if they or their children attend church, the state will not allow their children to show up at college or enter the Chinese military service. In a similar attempt, an elderly church member was pressurized by the Chinese authorities, to sign a bond which forbade him from attending church, as a result his grandson was allowed to join military.
