Global Health Security in Africa
Finding Solutions and Emphasising the Critical Role of Laboratories:
The recent Ebola outbreak in West Africa and global COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of early disease detection and response in preventing the rise of new global health threats. ASLM is committed to supporting laboratory systems and networks that are efficient in combating global health security risks.
Updates on the Freetown, Sierra Leone, Regional Global Health Security Consultation:
New 'Freetown Declaration' advocates for increased prioritisation of functional tiered laboratory networks to close gaps in global health security agenda
View the press release from the Regional Freetown Consultation.
Early detection requires that rapid disease testing capacity reaches across countries and into rural communities where people live. Health experts in Africa are taking steps to strengthen laboratory networks in order to improve the early detection of outbreaks on the continent.
Significant progress has been made in strengthening laboratory networks since the adoption of the 2008 Maputo Declaration for Strengthening Laboratory Systems and Resolution AFR/RC58/R2 at the 58th session of the World Health Organization Regional Committee for Africa (WHO AFRO), both resulting in the scale-up of diagnostic services for HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria. Emerging threats now require even more responsive and harmonised laboratory networks, which are significantly integrated and aligned with public health institutes for effective surveillance responses.
Together with ASLM and WHO AFRO, high-level Ministry of Health officials from more than 20 countries in Africa have issued a "Freetown Declaration" calling for international and local stakeholders to bolster capacity to establish resilient tiered laboratory networks, regularly measure progress with a standardised score card, and effectively integrate these networks into disease surveillance and public health institutes.
The Diagnostic Evidence Hub is a knowledge platform that provides national reference laboratories, national regulatory authorities, and diagnostics stakeholders with key information from published studies on the technical performance of new in vitro diagnostic products. It seeks to improve access to publicly available technical data in order to inform decision-making and support in-country registration and adoption of new, impactful, and quality-assured diagnostic products. Click below to learn more and explore the available products.
In 2009, World Health Organization's Regional Office for Africa (WHO AFRO) established a framework for improving the quality of public health laboratories in developing countries to achieve ISO 15189 standards. This framework, renamed in 2011 and implemented by ASLM in Africa, is the Stepwise Laboratory Quality Improvement Process Towards Accreditation (SLIPTA) programme.
Through standardised processes, SLIPTA measures and evaluates the progress of laboratories towards international accreditation and awards a certificate of recognition with 0-5 star ratings. SLIPTA enables laboratories to develop their quality management systems in order to produce timely, reliable and accurate laboratory results.
What is the difference between SLIPTA and SLMTA?
Proportion of internationally accredited medical/clinical laboratories in Africa from 2014 and 2019
Since the launch of the SLIPTA programme and the Maputo Declaration, the number of accredited laboratories in Africa has increased from 422 in 2014 (Figure 1) to 633 in 2019 (Figure 2). As indicated in the figures, there the proportion of laboratories achieving accreditation outside South Africa is increasing, illustrating the overall advancement of quality management systems across the continent. Twenty percent of non-South African laboratories achieving ISO accreditation in 2019 have been engaged in the SLIPTA programme.
*Data collected from these accreditation bodies

The Laboratory Systems Strengthening Community of Practice (LabCoP) is a new learning network, designed to link multidisciplinary teams from member countries to exchange laboratory experiences and best practices.
ASLM's role in the laboratory mapping program is to propose solutions for the standardised collection, storage and analysis of geo-located data on laboratory capacity, and to support the establishment of public and country portals in accordance with national requirements for data sharing.
The global market for diagnostics in low-resource settings does not meet the needs of the millions of people living with HIV, TB, HPV, Hepatitis and other diseases, so the Integrated Diagnostics Consortium was formed to enable the scale-up of better coordinated procurement and deployment of platform-based diagnostic technologies.
Here you will find the latest news, guidelines and tools to fight endemic and pandemic outbreaks.
What is Point-of-Care Testing? Why POC Testing Making It Happen Partners Resources
Point-of-care (POC) technologies bring tests closer to patients in a convenient and timely manner to allow rapid care and treatment. The introduction of molecular testing has been a game changer, particularly for major diseases such as tuberculosis and pediatric HIV. Tests for these diseases traditionally entailed transporting samples from local clinics to testing centres, and patients and clinicians often waiting hours, weeks or months, to receive results needed to inform care and treatment. Today, HIV test results are usually returned to caregivers on the same day and HIV-infected infants can begin antiretroviral therapy (ART) immediately, reducing the risk of loss to follow up. However, in many settings, obstacles remain to POC testing even when POC testing is available, and must be overcome if, the full potential of POC early infant diagnosis (EID) is to be maximised.
POC Testing is critical because:
It brings essential diagnostic testing closer to patients, therefore quicker access to results
It helps more children receive more access to life-saving care
It facilitates more rapid clinical decision making
Point-of-care viral load (VL) testing can address systemic challenges and support PMTCT efforts
It can help avert vertical transmission from pregnant or breastfeeding mothers to their children
It facilitates more appropriate treatments and interventions
ASLM has partnered with The Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) and UNICEF to accelerate adoption and uptake of new diagnostic technologies under the Unitaid-funded POC HIV Diagnostic Project, which brings essential diagnostic testing closer to patients. Together with the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (EGPAF), ASLM, CHAI, UNICEF and Unitaid, we have successfully supported the introduction of POC EID and VL technologies, pilot and scale up activities in 15 sub-Saharan African countries.
In order to accelerate POC implementation ASLM disseminates related resources, evidence and lessons learned, leading the development of technical best practices of supportive systems, and establishing a community of practice for laboratory leaders, implementers, and partners to promote knowledge sharing and south-to-south learning.
The number of types of technologies formally registered per country can been used as a proxy indicator for uptake of this relatively new market of POC NAT diagnostics. This map indicates the distribution by type and numbers of POC Nucleic Acid Testing (NAT) for HIV, EID and VL technologies being used by some countries in Africa.
ASLM and our partners have amassed a collection of tools, guidelines, publications, reports, presentations and other resources related to point-of-care, viral load testing, waste management and other relevant topics, to help build your knowledge base and enhance your organisation.

Centres of excellence strengthening laboratory medicine and improving health outcomes in Africa
ASLM's Network of Centres of Excellence comprise a nucleus of the leading national public health laboratories on the African continent. These Centres of Excellence play a key role in strengthening laboratory medicine and improving health outcomes in Africa by becoming leaders in several important initiatives.
This ASLM laboratory network currently consist of six centres of excellence with a national and international reputation in laboratory medicine, research, policy guidance, technology assessment and implementation, and training, amongst other areas. Three of the centres are accredited to international ISO standards.
Significant opportunities exist for the ASLM network of Centres of Excellence to strengthen laboratory medicine in Africa, including:
Improving regulatory harmonisation for diagnostics within economic zones. Opportunities exist for theC entres of Excellence to partner in efforts with other agencies to establish regional diagnostics regulatory harmonisation. Several groups, including WHO, ASLM, the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), and others are working on initiatives to build the appropriate political support, create assessment standards etc. The Centres of Excellence can play a key role by conducting evaluations of new technology to produce high quality data for regional regulatory review.
Establishing a south-south fellowship programme to provide opportunities for promising young laboratory scientists to train, study, and research at centres of excellence for several months at a time. This would promote skills transfer and collaboration between the network of laboratories on the continent and help develop the next generation of laboratory medicine leaders.
Establishment of an international network of proficiency testing (PT) providers to support SLIPTA and other quality improvement and accreditation programmes. Each Centre of Excellence would be responsible for a different range of PT services as part of a self-sustaining initiative, coordinated by a committee of the Centres of Excellence with a rotating lead.
Fostering the establishment of the Association/Network of National Public Health Reference Laboratories (NPHL) in Africa. NPHLs play a key role in training, assuring quality and developing laboratory capacity throughout the health care system in their respective countries. Linking these laboratories in a regional network is critical to increase research capacity, quality management systems, disease detection, and sustainability of health programs throughout Africa. Moreover, the regional laboratory network will facilitate South-South cooperation and collaboration.

The Documentary institute of South Africa (DOCi) was established in March 2018 with the aim of running full time, 10 week courses to teach the fundamentals of documentary film-making. The course is both academic and practical, and is devised to enable previously-disadvantaged young people to gain a foothold in this exciting and dynamic industry.
The founders – Michael S. Murphey and Malcolm Kohll – each have over 30 years of commercial film-making experience both in South Africa and internationally. In addition Malcolm was Head of AFDA film school and in charge of Post Graduate productions covering Honours and Masters level films. Monde Kewana supports them in a number of key technical and administrative functions.
The course was run with the generous support of the American Consulate in Cape Town, and hosted at the American Corner at the Central Library.
Michael is a Cape Town-based American feature-film and television producer with over 35 years of experience. His credits include Dredd 3D, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and District 9 which was nominated for Best Picture Oscar at the 2010 Academy Awards. Michael is co-owner with Irfaan Fredericks of Kalahari Film and Media.
Malcolm is South African who studied at Middlesex University and trained at the BBC, working for over 30 years a freelance writer/producer before joining Focus Films where he oversaw 9 international features, including the USD$26M The 51st State starring Samuel L Jackson. In 2014 Malcolm returned to Cape Town to run AFDA film school.
Monde is a Zambian filmmaker based in Cape Town. She graduated from City Varsity Media in 2013 and has since then ventured on as a producer and editor working with independent filmmakers Benchfilms, and as a producing intern at Kalahari Film and Media. On the Doci Course she lectures and supervises editing and general admin.
Terence is a young local theatre maker with a passion for documentaries. He studied at the Waterfront Theatre School, writing his debut play "Kinders van die Wind", in his final year. Makapan was part of the Reel Lives documentary training programme in 2017 where he directed his first documentary, The Invisibles.
I came from the DRC to Cape Town to study filmmaking but unfortunately I couldn't afford the school fees. I attended Reel Lives classes in 2017 but I didn't finish the course, so this year I enrolled in the DOCi program to achieve my dream of making a documentary about Albinism.
Eemaan – I was born in Cape Town after Apartheid and have lived my whole life guided by the principles of equality and community. I aim to use those practices throughout my career. As a young entrepreneur and woman, I believe that good actions bring good action, and always aim to be the best at what I do and appreciate those who do their best.

Q: Amazon S3 to Amazon Glacier custom vault So I was researching about Amazon Cloud services and how to backup all my personal infrastructure to the cloud -btw it's really amazing what Amazon has achieved on this field-.
I started looking into S3 storage + Amazon Glacier automatic migration, that would give me high availability for recent files and high durability at low cost per GB for older files.
I followed this steps:

*

*Create a new bucket with S3

*Create a new vault with Glacier

*Create a new lifecycle rule, to transfer files to Glacier after 365 days and delete them from S3 after 400 days.

Here is my question. There is nowhere to specify on which vault you would like to copy your S3 bucket files into, so I don't exactly know what is going to happen when the rule is activated. Both bucket and vault are on the east-2 (Ohio) server. A new vault will to be created?. It will default to my only created vault?.

A: You cannot specify a vault.
Think of S3 as a customer of Glacier.  They have their own Glacier accounts -- they don't use your vaults.

Although the objects are stored in Amazon Glacier, these remain Amazon S3 objects that you manage in Amazon S3, and you cannot access them directly through Amazon Glacier.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/storage-class-intro.html#sc-glacier

There is also more information in that sentence than meets the eye.  Configuring a lifecycle policy to delete the objects "from S3" removes them from Glacier.
S3's Glacier storage class allows you to store objects at Glacier pricing, while still having access to the object metadata through S3 -- they are still S3 objects.

Jesse Redwing
Jesse Redwing grew up on punk, found inspiration in the likes of Peter Green, John Mayall, Eric Burdon, Eric Clapton and the Stones, then took a step back to "the real shit": Chess Records, Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Little Walter, Buddy Guy and Willie Dixon.
"I wasn't born to the blues, but it found me somehow and now there's no turning back," he says.
Backed by the Real MVPs (drummer Nicholas Meredith and bass player Brendan 'Thumper' Clark), Redwing's real, raw, punk-tinged blues is a live experience to behold, and producer Stephen Mowat has proved himself capable of capturing their explosive energy on tape.
Studio recordings have so far come in the form of singles Comin' On and Crawlin' Up The Walls – the latter recently launched at a packed Brighton Up Bar – and there's a full-length album set to see the light later in 2016.
A blues revival looks well-and-truly ready to kick off, and Redwing might just be the man to lead the congregation. Hallelujah.

Simply striking yet remarkably detailed. That's the beauty of the Branbury end table. Its clean-lined profile is greatly enhanced by a dramatic tabletop with butterfly veneer layup. And the finish? So complex in a rustic gray tone with hints of aged metallic. Unique oval shaped hardware on the smooth-gliding drawer rounds out the look.
Two tone finish pairs a rustic gray wood with aged metallic silver color. Table top has butterfly veneer layup with breadboard ends, legs and shelf frame. Wood tone has a grayish brown color with textural effect. Bottom shelf for ample storage and display. Oval knob with a patinated silver finish. Drawers have a smooth operating glide system with sanded sealed interiors. French/English construction. Cocktail table has casters for mobility.


ORIGINAL:Original game did randomize three cards.
Then two first cards was revealed to player while third card still hided.
After this, player had to choose do he believe that third card is between two revealed cards.
So basicly, if revealed cards were (13) and (8), player were asked do he believe third card is 9, 10, 11 or 12.
If player did think so, he could bet for it. If player didn't believe it, he just pressed <ENTER> and next turn started with two new revealed cards and third one that were hided.
If player did bet, he either win or loose, depending was third card between two revealed ones.
Game did continue until player did loose all hes moneys or game was interrupted by keyboard.
TRANSPORTED:Transported version follows main idea of AceyDucey.
Instead of just randomizing card's, this version does create a real deck of cards with all four lands.
After deck is created, game shuffles the deck.
First two cards are revealed on screen while third is hided. Now player can either bet or just press <ENTER>.
After this, first of revealed cards is removed from game, second revealed card comes a first revealed card and third card wich was hided at first, comes as second revealed card. Fourth card in deck is now hided and player has to choose does he believe if it's between cards that are now revealed on screen.
Game continues as long there is cards in deck and player has money to bet.

1. Subscribe to the Faithlife YouTube channel.
2. Sign up to hear about Faithlife's latest Bible study resources, deals, and more.
3. Share the brand-new Psalms animation at the bottom of this post.
That's all you need to do to be eligible, but if you want to win Logos 6 Gold, you'll have to work a little harder than the rest.
Only the most active YouTube user will win. How do you show us that you're the most active? Like, share, and comment on some of our other videos—including episodes of Faithlife Today (there are over 100 of them!) and other Bible animations! On August 21, we'll tally your points and give the winner Logos 6 Gold. 10 others will be randomly selected to win The Treasury of David by Charles Spurgeon.
Don't forget to join our email list and subscribe to our YouTube channel, and you're eligible to win!
Head to the Faithlife YouTube channel to like, share, and comment your way to Logos 6 Gold!
You must be a resident of the United States in order to win. "Spam" or duplicate comments will not be approved, and will not count towards the contest.
How do you do #2 and sign up to hear about Faithlife's latest Bible study resources, deals, and all that stuff? Is it on Youtube that you do that?
Sorry, Drew. The post went live a little early by mistake. You should be able to subscribe to the email list now using the entry form which has been added to the post.
There was a similar contest in July. Who was the winner of that one?
The winner of the previous contest was Colb B.
Ryan Nelson Awesome! Thank you very much!!!
I just want to confirm that people will not get points from re-sharing the same link on Facebook or anywhere multiple times.
Unique comments on the same video will count, but spammed links and duplicate comments will not be approved, and will not count towards the contest.
Yikes… I wish I had seen this comment before I started posting the same comments over and over again. I apologize for doing so, and will stop immediately.
The link to like the Faithlife Study Bible page doesn't work. I clicked it, but it doesn't take me to facebook.
"Share the brand-new Psalms animation at the bottom of this post."
How do you keep track of our activity on the youtube channel? My youtube account isn't tied to the same email as my faithlife account. How will you keep track of my activity?
YouTube allows us to see which YouTube users are most active on our channel. We will contact the winner using YouTube, and at that time they can tell us what email they would like the resources to be unlocked for.
For what it is worth, I am extremely grateful for these contests. I won the last one and have been truly blessed by the Spurgeon Commentary series that I won. It is not often that one sees a company giving away a $1,500 grand prize in a contest that does not cost a single penny to participate in. In fact, it is rare to see a company give away anything period, unless it is in a contest that costs money to enter. The giveaways Faithlife has held recently are incredibly generous by my standard. You're right, spending time on the computer participating isn't for everyone. But I know I speak for many of us when I say that we are thankful for giveaways like this one!
What about those people who don't spend their life on Facebook and YouTube? Like, share, click here, click there. What a waste of precious time.
Hi Dennis. We understand it's not for everyone, but Logos 6 Gold is worth $1,540.55 if you don't already own a base package, and The Treasury of David in Logos format is worth $59.95, so you will have to decide for yourself if it is worth it to pursue. Entering to win The Treasury of David doesn't take that much effort, but yes, winning Logos 6 Gold will take some work.
Looking forward to the contest!!
All through August, get a free commentary on the Book of Acts!
All through AAll through August, get a free commentary on the Book of Acts!ugust, get a free cAll through August, get a free commentary on the Book of Acts!ommentary on the Book of Acts!

Sorry for the delayed response, John. Everything you need to do to become eligible is within the entry form, embedded in the blog post above. Entering your name and email in the entry form is how you sign up for the email list. Each social site you used to share the video is a separate channel (Facebook, Twitter, etc.). I hope this helps, please let me know if you have further questions.
Ryan Nelson, hello, I am just wanting to verify that I haven't been disqualified for posting duplicate comments on the same video early on in the contest. I have been spending many hours each day participating in the contest and do not want to waste my time doing so if I have already been disqualified. I share Logos/Faithlife videos quite often as it is, but I won't continue to do it thousands of times a day unless there is a competition going on LOL! ;-) Thank you for your time!
Hi, Colby. You are definitely not disqualified, but any duplicate comments will not count towards the contest. Good luck!
Awesome, thank you for allowing me to continue on, I am grateful!!
John Schmidt Sorry about the confusing end date. The contest ends on August 21, not August 17.
I really like my Logos 6.
I bought my original LOGOS software a LONG time ago and bragged on it then. Even bought one for a friend going into bible school. It has improved so much over the years it just makes doing bible study and research educational and fun now. I would love to have the Gold package but with an extreme stretch of my budget the best I could upgrade to is the starter package and basic crossgrade features plus my original package books from years ago. Still lovin it though! Wish more could afford it.
Charles Thibodeaux, I agree with you, Logos certainly makes Bible study fun! I also understand the financial aspect, I too am on a tight budget, and never dreamed of even owning Logos at all. But when I checked the "Pay Monthly" options, I was pleasantly surprised. If you haven't already, I totally recommend checking out the different payment plan options. If it weren't for the pay monthly feature, I wouldn't be able to own Logos 6. God bless!
I love the animation graphics on Psalm 139.
Thanks for creating that awesome Psalms 139 animation. It Rocks!
The psalm 139 video evokes a powerful message.
Hi! I am presently working here Saudi Arabia and I owned Logos 5. Can I be eligible to join this contest? Just reverifying. Thanks!
The animation is neat…Psalms is an awesome book in the bible.
I would love to win this, but I live in Canada, I guess we can't get free stuff here.
Is this similar to the Christian Discourse giveaway from last year? Do the same rules apply?
Good on you Bob Pritchett! Our money is good enough for them, but I guess they have a new Bible translation – the A.I.V. (American Imperialist Version) that amongst other statements says "We are all one in Christ as long as we American". It's so good to see the American arrogance and exclusivity that causes the good ol' U.S. of A. to be so near and dear to the hearts of people elsewhere. Good on you Bob Pritchett! you really know how to with the hearts and minds of the rest of the World – yes that's right. There is actually a world outside America and they are necessarily thrilled or delighted by what the allegedly exceptionally great America does. It's just as well I've cut back on buying Logos products and considering changing to Accordance. After all, with treatment like this and having to download the bulk of what you buy every time you need to reinstall it Logos has lost a lot of its shine in my eyes. Oh, and let's not forget the fact there's a good proportion of heresy amongst the wares for sale. Pfft! So much for loving the brethren! "If you're American you're cool and well bless you to the hilt. If not well, your money's good, but hey, you're not American so what else do you expect?".
I complained to Bob, the big boss and he said he will look into this. He said it's the issue of legal restrictions that have deterred him, but I got the impression he will do what he can to open up competitions to folk like you and me.
It's the issue of laws governing competitions, but Bob, the big boss replied to an email message I sent him and I understand him to mean he will have the marketing department look into this.
May the almighty God help us to do what is right while on earth.
Any word on who won the Gold base package? I am curious who won.
Hi Colby. Erik Pastorek won the base package!
Nooo. Denmark is not eligible to join!
Is there any new information about the winner of the contest yet?
Hi Drew. Erik Pastorek won the Gold base package.

Review: Casting for Gravity – Donny McCaslin
Donny McCaslin is a bit more established than our usual All Jazz Sax review subjects, but, sad to say, I'm pretty unfamiliar with his work. So I thought I'd use McCaslin's recently-released recording, Casting for Gravity, as an occasion for getting to know his playing a bit better.
The recording starts out with "Stadium Jazz," McCaslin gently introducing the tune with a slow line, backed by synthesizer. But this quickly gives way to an up-tempo groove. This tune sounds like some of Michael Brecker's later work, such as some of the things from Tales from the Hudson and Pilgrimage. McCaslin displays the kind of control over the tenor sax that Brecker had, hyperfast articulation, strong sound in the lowest part of the horn, fluid in the altissimo. There's some nice drum work here from Mark Guilliana and some distorted synthesizer from Jason Linder. I would also characterize this tune as the electric Return to Forever tempered by the warmth of McCaslin's tenor sax. The tune closes with synthesizers tuned to sound like voices, backing McCaslin while he plays the melody. A strong start to the recording.
"Says Who" is an upper mid-tempo burner built on a series of brief, repeated phrases. This tune reminds me of other electronic jazz projects that include a saxophonist, like Weather Report and saxophonist Bill Evans's Petite Blonde. McCaslin's solo is full of ear-catching virtuoso patterns, and after his solo, Guilliana's drumming is the focus. Guilliana sounds like he internalized the drumming of Dennis Chambers on Petite Blonde. But the cut overall is not very interesting.
"Losing Track of Daytime" slows things down. This tune, with Linder on electric piano, is similar to the work of pop group Zero 7, like the pretty song "Home" from their When It Falls, except that it has a jarring bridge section that doesn't really fit. Linder plays a solo that doesn't have much substance. McCaslin aggressively solos over a rougher background, sounding great, firing off some impressive false fingering phrases and doing some altissimo screaming. Electric bassist Tim Lefevbre plays well in the background. This cut is pretty effective--Zero 7 with a world-class tenor saxophone soloist. "Alpha and Omega," starts out with some spacy playing from Linder on synthesizer and some electronically-echoed phrases from McCaslin; the synthesizer and saxophone phrases are repeated without break throughout the cut. The variety in the tune is provided by interludes of high energy playing from Guilliana and Lefebvre and some synthesizer effects from Linder, but the tune doesn't include any real improvised soloing.
"Tension" almost counts as up-tempo electronica, with a repetitious theme featuring McCaslin in unison with Linder on synthesizer, and as a tune it's just not very interesting. But McCaslin plays a good solo, full of variety. Linder adds layers of synthesizer, and Guilliana continues his Dennis Chambers act. "Praia Grande" is more compositionally interesting, approaching the quality of the work of David Binney, (such as the first cut on Barefooted Town, reviewed here). McCaslin plays a very high-energy solo, and some voice-like synthesizer joins in near the end of the solo and the cut.
"Love Song for an Echo" is a mid-tempo tune that starts out with some quiet, spacy synthesizer, McCaslin then coming in with a gentle melody. The tempo picks up a bit, and Linder comes in on acoustic piano. Linder's solo is pretty but underdeveloped; it kind of just meanders. Then McCaslin solos, showing again what terrific control he has over the saxophone. Then he returns to the tune's gentle theme to close things out. "Casting for Gravity" is an interesting, upper mid-tempo tune, Linder playing a nice synthesizer line in the background. McCaslin plays a strong melody, but the cut ends up disappointing because it doesn't include any real improvisation.
"Bend" has synthesizer and saxophone playing an elusive melody in conflict with an insistent bass line. McCaslin plays another sleek solo, with the whole group in a very solid groove; everybody's together on this one. Linder plays a very good solo on synthesizer here and makes me wish he had more synthesizer solos on this recording. The recording ends with "Henry," a quieter tune with a pretty melody. This tune has a nice, confident groove. Linder plays a solid electric piano solo, Lefebvre laying down a cool background behind him, and McCaslin plays a laid-back, too-brief solo. At this point, the last cut on the recording, the group seems truly relaxed and comfortable, like they finally found their groove.
Ultimately, Casting for Gravity is a bit disappointing. For one thing, too many of the tunes are on the bland side. For me, if you're going to play this type of electronic, pop-oriented music (but without a vocalist and lyrics), you have to have strong tunes and do some pretty interesting compositional things within the tunes. The thing is, the group achieves this high level a few times, like on "Praia Grande," "Bend," and "Henry." Also, as is evident on "Bend" and "Henry," Linder is a good soloist, and he gets too few opportunities to shine on this recording. If all the tunes on Casting for Gravity had the quality of "Bend" and "Henry," and if the supporting players got more of a chance to stretch out (especially Linder), this would have been a superlative recording. Having said this, Casting for Gravity is almost pulled into the superlative category just by virtue of McCaslin's tenor saxophone playing. His playing is so strong that, while listening to it, though late at night, I was tempted to grab my own tenor sax to do some practicing. McCaslin may be the rightful heir to Michael Brecker's legacy. Those interested in jazz saxophone cannot afford to miss out on his playing.

Q: Generate RTF Text from Chinese string stored in UTF8 database field In Delphi 7 (for a lot of reasons I can't convert the application in Xe) I must generate the RTF string from a Chinese string that is stored into a UTF8 field (in Firebird 2.5 table).
For example I read the field value that contain the UTF8 value of the string "史蒂芬·克拉申"  string  into a wiredstring and then I should convert to a string like this
'ca\'b7\'b5\'d9\'b7\'d2\f1\'b7\f0\'bf\'cb\'c0\'ad\'c9\'ea\
The value of UTF8 field for the previous Chinese string is 'å²è''芬·克拉申'
How can I do that ?
I have done a lot of search but I haven't find  solutions.
Please give me some advice to solve this problem.
Thanks Massimo

A: After several days I finally found a solution inspired by this post
Getting char value in Delphi 7 and the conversion to decimal available on this site https://www.branah.com/unicode-converter
After loading the UTF8 value from the field I use UTF8Decode and then I convert to Rtf ..
var
  fUnicode : widestring;

  function UnicodeToRtf(const S: WideString): string;
   var
     I: Integer;
   begin
     Result := '';
     for I := 1 to Length(S) do
         Result := Result + '\u' + IntToStr(Word(S[I]))+'?';
   end;

begin
   fUnicode := Utf8Decode(DbChineseField.AsString);
   fRtfString := UnicodetoRtf(fUnicode);
   .....
end;


This corresponds to a 9P Tread request. The message is a list of three elements, the fid of the file, the offset to read from, and the number of bytes to read. fid-value is the value bound to the fid.
If the read succeeds, reply! should be called with a list of one argument, that being a u8vector of bytes of the desired length or less.
If the read fails, error! should be called with a suitable error message.
The default implementation calls error! with a message stating that reading is not supported.

Email: operationthugs@yahoo.com
"Operation T.H.U.G.S." is an non-profit Christian ministry, based out of Fairfield/Suisun, California, who are a group of men & women from different churches who share the same passion to reach out to the lost. This mission is bigger than just one church, this is a Body movement who represents UNITY in the Body of Christ.
The Harvest is great but the laborers are few. Matthew 9:37 Check out their website www.opertionthugs.org
"Operation T.H.U.G.S." Mission statement is to reach into the wicked dark streets and be the light and gather souls for my King Christ Jesus!
"Operation T.H.U.G.S" is a street ministry geared at bringing the Gospel of Christ into the streets. Being the light in dark places and sharing what Christ has done for us and also sharing what we have been through. Matthew
"OPERATION" has many meanings. One which is the power to act; efficacy or influence. In the medical field operation would mean a procedure aimed at restoring or improving the health of a patient, as by correcting a malformation, removing diseased parts, implanting new parts, etc. and in the military field it would mean, a campaign, mission, maneuver, or action. So I am saying I want to work... on the so called "THUG" to influence them to a new way of living. The medical term operation is the part Christ would have to perform on them to restore and improve their standing and spiritual health, to correct malformation and the removal of diseased parts and implanting new parts, amen! And of course the military term would be used to describe what we do when we are outside of the church in the streets. And yes we are on these streets, going places most people won't go. We can and do go because as ex-thugs we can identify with the streets and on first glance we often time look like the streets so we are able to approach them and often time based on that alone they receive us, respect us and now that we have their attention they have opened the door for us to win their souls for Christ.
T.H.U.G.S. is an acronym and simply stands for The Harvest Unit Gathering Souls. God gave me the name of this ministry as an attraction tool. When one see's it, it causes one to question what it is, what place does it have in the church and at that point it gives us an opportunity to share and witness. To the street person it's attractive because they can identify with the word thug.
This is all done for Christs glory, not ours. We are His vessels and we are seeking to be lights in dark places...join the cause of Christ today! Help us to win souls.

FoundNation is more than just a rap group. It is a group of men, driven by their Christian identity, to serve others, and make God known to them through their lives and their music.
This new group that spans to all the borders of the United States is not only bringing a new sound to Christian rap but is also setting a high bar for Catholic rap. The 3 artists with the stage names of Thot, Dy-Verse, and C2Six have many years of ministry, from the local level of parish ministry with CCD and catechetical teachers to street ministry with gang intervention and street witnessing. After pursuing solo careers in the hip-hop world, they crossed paths through Phatmass, and quickly bonded as artists and friends. Desiring to bring change to the lives of individuals, their communities, and their own personal lives as they continuously sought to live out their Catholic-Christian faith, these young men became the group called FoundNation.
With their individual talents, they seek to bring light into a dark world, through rhymes, beats and songs. The sounds represented from the group come from "tha South" and also from a "latin" rap mixed with a "now-pop" sound, the music is definitely engineered for our street youth but enjoyable for all ages and backgrounds.

So Cali's 1st Christian Hip Hop Radio Station
http://www.ktstfm.com/
Every Friday from 12:00pm-1:00pm
ChristFM is joining a revolutionary movement which started in the 1960s and early 1970s. The event was called the "Jesus Movement," which spawned a transition in Christian music from hymns and choir songs into rock and metal sounds. This evolution of Christian music was the first of its kind and eventually popularized into what people hear today.
Although Christian radio stations are heavily saturated with rock and alternative songs, Christian hip-hop is ready to make its debut this year.
The streets have pushed hip-hop into the spotlight, but will the Christian culture be ready for the sounds of this genre? Time will tell, but more importantly will this genre will be effective for
spreading the gospel?
Hosting and taking prayer request on ChristFM will be M.C. Javi G and Sam Da Ram. If you're in the LA and Orange County area don't forget to tune into 89.5FM or listen worldwide on KTSTFM.com

KIAC Station Community is where listeners and artists create playlists and party mixes called Stations from all the great songs on IAC.
The stations on IAC range from genre-based to pretty much every possible theme on the map and can be created in a large assortment of colors. Day and night you can see the station owners adding songs to their stations. It is very easy to start a station for listeners or artists. Just start a page (artist or pipeline), and go to the right of your administration page to "Create New Station." Then go anywhere on the site, click on the plus button to add songs to your station.
Create multiple stations for your various moods. And you can enter your station in the monthly station contest too. The IAC station concept is renowned among music sites for its look, and ease of use. And that's not all.
Once you create a station, you can put it on any site you want (with an auto-play option) using the KIAC Export Player. Click on that link and it
will take you only a few seconds to create a code that will place your songlist/station for play on your homepage, domain site, or My Space page.
The IAC player has enhanced sound for exceptionally crisp streaming, and now you can take your station all over the web. Also, now you can customize the color of your Export Player too.
While we're on the subject of song streaming, this might be a good time to mention that IAC is one of the few sites that allows artists to upload
mp3s at any kbps bitrate for no additional cost. This means that many of the songs you hear on the site will be playing in super hi fi mode, which is
basically CD quality.

Marvel Resurrects The X-Babies
Graeme McMillan
Filed to:x-babies
As if three different versions of Marvel's X-Men wasn't confusing enough for casual readers, this weekend saw the announcement of yet another take on the mutant franchise. But at least this one has a gimmick: They're a bunch of babies.
Marvel have announced that they're bringing back one-time joke characters the X-Babies for a new four issue series later this year. Surprisingly, this won't be the first time that the characters - clones of the one-time de-aged versions of the original X-Men, created to star on an alternate dimension reality show (Confusing, I know) - have had their own comic book; they'd previously headlined 1998's X-Babies: Murderama and 2000's X-Babies: Reborn. So what makes this third try so different? As writer Gregg Schigiel explains, media satire:
The new programmers have a very specific vision for what should air-[they are] more interested in 'safe, pleasant, cute, educational and moral-heavy' programming... This is distinctly different than the rock 'em-sock 'em, fight-heavy stuff more common in classic super hero stories. Obviously, the X-Babies-who've been replaced by kinder, gentler, cuter versions of themselves-think that's dumb.
The new series also offers nostalgia for the longterm fanboy, as the replacements for the X-Babies turns out to be revived characters from Marvel's 1980s kids line, Star Comics. Schigiel:
What's cool about it, to me, was that the story idea came first... And then came the 'holy moley' moment where I realized there was this untapped reservoir of characters in Marvel's publishing history that fit the story perfectly. You know, you kind of search the landscape for unnoticed or unused characters, which can be tough these days. Kind of made me glad to be old enough to remember these guys.
As someone who suffered through the adventures of Planet Terry way back when I was a kid, I can't deny that I'd be interested in seeing him get punched a few times by Kid Colossus. Or maybe more than a few times.
X-Babies will launch later this year.

Observation of Si emission during thermal oxidation of Si(0 0 1) with high-resolution RBS
S. Hosoi, K. Nakajima, M. Suzuki, K. Kimura, Y. Shimizu, S. Fukatsu, K. M. Itoh, M. Uematsu, H. Kageshima, K. Shiraishi
An epitaxially grown Si isotope heterostructure, 28Si(2 nm)/30Si(1 nm)/natSi, was used to study the behavior of Si atoms during oxidation. The change in the Si-isotope profiles during the oxidation was observed using high-resolution Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy. A significant oxidation-enhanced diffusion of 30Si into the natSi layer was observed in the oxidation at 800 °C, while the concentration of emitted 30Si into the 28SiO2 layer was found to be less than 5 at.% in the oxidation at 1100 °C.

"Incorporating Population-Level Variability in Orthopedic Biomechanical Analysis: A Review" was recently published in the Journal of Biomechanical Engineering. The paper is co-authored by Jeffrey E. Bischoff and Yifei Dai from Zimmer, Inc.; Casey Goodlett and Brad Davis from Kitware; and Marc Bandi from Zimmer, GmbH.
In researching the orthopedic biomechanics of tissue or joint behavior, it is important to account for variability such as age, gender, ethnicity, and/or disease state. While this can be difficult to accomplish, according to the paper, we can use medical imaging, biomechanical testing, gait analysis, and computational analysis to create models that give us a better comprehension of how biomechanics operates in regards to health, disease, and reconstruction. Such an understanding can aid in joint disease care.

Traveling will take a tole on your skin. Starting with the airplane just parching you from the inside to spending hours in the sun, pool and of course drinking Mai Tais by the sand. We have walked into countless appointments finding dry and sun burnt beauties! So the search was on to find the best SPF and products to protect and hydrate. This is when we fell in love with COOLA.
The COOLA travel kit comes with 4 travel size, TSA approved (yay!), products. The chapstick, with SPF 30, will last long passed your travels and keep those lips ready to be kissed. My favorite is the Body SPF 30 Pina Coloda Sunscreen Spray. Ever since I have had this in my hands, I have not been burnt. Best of all, it is a spray so you can sun bathe alone and get all of those hard to reach spots. Following the spray, the Face SPF 30 Cucumber Moisturizer goes along way without compromising the skin. Have you ever had a breakout just from using sunscreen? Well not likely with COOLA's face sunscreen. It is super light, smooth, and composed of ingredients safe for the face. Last, if you happen to miss a spot and need some moisture recovery, or are just feeling dry their ER+Radical Recovery After-Sun Lotion will last for months after your holiday. That sums up the complete kit of vacation ready skin care.
For our clients and brides you may pre-order them via email and we will hand deliver to your hotel/vacation rental. The COOLA travel kit is $45 and includes the cutest travel bag for all of your goodies.


In Soviet Russia Building tag you.

Smoke rises slowly from the crater that erupted in 2002, spewing rocks 300 metres into the air at the speed of sound. This is Etna.
As with the sunrise it's a dramatic affair, in both colour and speed, which the photograph doesn't do justice to.
We watched it pull in, load up with waiting vehicles and then depart into the night, destined for the other island where the city lights flicker across the sea.
With such amazing light and colours. Photographs, particularly from this mobile phone camera, simply cannot do it justice. I would have to be a painter or a writer to describe it properly.
In the Netherlands last week I noticed that bicycles and scooters happily share lanes.

is a psychological test in which subjects' perceptions of inkblots are recorded and then analyzed using psychological interpretation, complex scientifically derived algorithms, or both. Some psychologists use this test to examine a person's personality characteristics and emotional functioning. It has been employed to detect an underlying thought disorder, especially in cases where patients are reluctant to describe their thinking processes openly. The test takes its name from that of its creator, Swiss psychologist Hermann Rorschach.
Although the Exner Scoring System (developed since the 1960s) claims to have addressed and often refuted many criticisms of the original testing system with an extensive body of research, some researchers have raised questions about the objectivity of psychologists administrating the test; inter-rater reliability; the verifiability and general validity of the test; bias of the test's pathology scales towards greater numbers of responses; the limited number of psychological conditions which it accurately diagnoses; the inability to replicate the test's norms; its use in court-ordered evaluations; and the proliferation of the ten inkblot images, potentially invalidating the test for those who have been exposed to them.
Apparently some psychologists think their patients are telling them about repressed sexual desires when in actual fact the blot simply reminds them of a pig.
Congratulations! At a 45% Sickness Quotient, you're almost well-adjusted.
You think everyone is out to get you, and you're absolutely right. It's because you're an awful person without any redeeming qualities. You never give up and refuse to settle for less than the best. In other words, you're impossible to please and you never shutup.
Rather than do a one-time job that takes ten minutes, you'd work for 5 years to automate it. You hate your job but will never leave it. That's because no one else will hire people whose job skills consist of sleeping and surfing the web.
Your personal motto is "Be a traveller in Life, not a tourist." But you're the kind of person that can't even get a temporary visa.
