Joan Baptista Pla i Agustí (Balaguer, ca. 1720 – Lissabon, 1773) was een Spaans componist en hoboïst uit de rococoperiode.

Levensloop
Joan Baptista kwam uit een Catalaanse familie van musici. Zijn broer Manuel Pla i Agustí (ca. 1725-1766) speelde klavecimbel aan het Spaanse hof in Madrid en componeerde ook. Ook zijn andere broer Josep Pla i Agustí (ca. 1728-1762) was hoboïst en componist.

Joan Baptista Pla en zijn broer Josep reisden vanaf 1750 als rondtrekkende muzikanten door heel Europa. Ze bezochten onder andere Padua, Venetië, Brussel, Parijs en Londen. Tussen 1755 en 1762 verbleven ze voornamelijk in Stuttgart, waar ze speelden in het hoforkest van hertog Karel Eugenius van Württemberg. In 1762 overleed Josep. Joan Baptista vertrok in 1769 naar Lissabon, waar hij aan het hof hobo, fagot en dulciaan speelde. Hij overleed daar in 1773.

Werken
Zowel Joan Baptista als Josep Pla schreef vooral kamermuziek. Het is vaak niet duidelijk wie van de beide broers welk stuk heeft geschreven. Ze werkten ook vaak samen.

Naast enkele sonates voor hobo en basso continuo zijn de belangrijkste werken van de beide broers circa dertig triosonates voor twee hobo's en basso continuo. Twee concerten voor hobo en strijkers en een concert voor twee hobo's en strijkers zijn vermoedelijk het werk van Joan Baptista alleen. Alle hobopartijen kunnen ook op de dwarsfluit worden gespeeld. Jean-Pierre Rampal speelde de drie concerten en drie triosonates op de fluit (met Claudi Arimany als tweede fluitist) op de cd Catalan Flute Music of the 18th Century.

EVERY BRILLIANT THING
Jonny Donahoe interacts with the audience in one-man show EVERY BRILLIANT THING (photo by Matthew Murphy)
Barrow Street Theatre
27 Barrow St. at Seventh Ave. South
Tuesday - Sunday through March 29, $20-$79

The Brits overuse the word brilliant the way Americans overuse the word awesome, diluting its impact and meaning. But Duncan Macmillan and Jonny Donahoe's Every Brilliant Thing is bloody brilliant and absolutely awesome, in every majestic sense of the hyperbolic words. It's billed as a one-man show, but it's an immersive experience in which dozens of ticket holders get to participate either from their seats or onstage with Donahoe at the Barrow Street Theatre, a small, square space with the audience arranged on all four sides. Donahoe, a British stand-up comic and leader of the musical comedy act Jonny and the Baptists, is so good, so natural in the role of a man sharing the vivid, poignant details of having grown up with a suicidal mother that it's hard to believe it's not his own true story, but it is indeed a fictional work written by playwright Macmillan (The Forbidden Zone, Monster) based on his short story "Sleeve Notes," a monologue he wrote for an actress who appeared in his first play. (Donahoe gets a smaller-font cowriting credit for what he brings to the production, which has been performed previously by other actors both male and female.) The lights remain up throughout the sixty-five-minute show, giving it even more of an involving, conversational feel. The story Donahoe, the narrator, tells is bittersweet and heartbreaking, beginning when he's seven, the year his mother first tries to kill herself. Immediately afterward, he starts keeping "a list of everything brilliant about the world. Everything worth living for." The list begins with "ice cream" and "water fights," and as the narrator grows up, the items on the list grow up with him, often becoming more mature and poetic ("the smell of old books," "old people holding hands"). The list also plays the central role in his relationship with Sam, leading to one of the most tender and heartwarming courtships you'll ever see onstage; I nearly broke down in tears not only while watching the beautifully staged scene but also when reading it in the script the next day. Through it all, Macmillan and Donahoe explore the fragile nature of depression and suicide, from how families deal with mental illness to the hyper-controlled way it's depicted in the media. "If you live a long life and get to the end of it without ever once feeling crushingly depressed, then you probably haven't been paying attention," the narrator says.

It's impossible not to pay attention to Donahoe, who gives a dazzling performance as the narrator. Directed by George Perrin (Good with People, Macmillan's Lungs), the Paines Plough production has an old-fashioned, home-made sensibility that matches the narrator's handwritten list. The narrator speaks eloquently about his love of vinyl records, the latter being number 2,006 on the ever-growing list: "I'm not being pretentious, the sound quality is better," he says. "It isn't compressed and it's tactile, you feel the weight of it in your hands. You can't skip like with CDs or mp3s, you listen through to the entire album. Dad's room had records on every surface and I loved the gatefold sleeves, the artwork, I love reading through the acknowledgments and the sleeve notes, the story of the making of the object." Books also play a major role; when the narrator selects someone from the audience to play one of his professors, he has him or her hold aloft a copy of Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther, a book he explains "resulted in thousands of copycat suicides." Later he reminds people that "there was a world in which you couldn't communicate with anyone after midnight. No mobile phones or social media. That world was called '1998.'" The heart of the show is the relationship between the narrator and a fellow student he meets in college, Sam, who was played when I saw it by a lovely young woman who really made the role her own, making a powerful connection with Donahoe that struck deep. And that's what Every Brilliant Thing is essentially about: making connections, both in life and in theater, being part of something that is bigger than yourself. It's tragedy and comedy of the highest order, an unforgettable experience that just might lead to your jotting down some of the things that make your life worth living. And the first one is very likely to be: Every Brilliant Thing.

#WOW: In conjunction with this year's International Women's Day, MIMS Today will be featuring a series of amazing, empowering stories—dedicated to our women in healthcare. Layout design: Brenda Lau, MIMS
In conjunction with the International Women's Day—a global event celebrated on 8 March annually—MIMS Today's editorial desk is proud to present seven profoundly inspiring stories for the entire month of March. Putting forward the notion that "women are healers", we bring to you our #HealsInHeels special feature—capturing a month of amazing, empowering stories—dedicated to our women in healthcare.
Our highlights of Part 1 are four leading women in healthcare who have contributed to the country's firsts, who are inspiration to many and who are making waves in the healthcare industry. They are showing the world that they are women of worth—symbolising a #WOW force of nature not to be meddled with. Next on the hot seat of our #WOW series is none other than Dr Chong Su-Lin, Chief Executive Officer of IMU Healthcare.
Dr Chong has always wanted to be a doctor, with no thoughts of ever being in the business sector. Photo credit: IMU
One on one with Dr Chong Su-Lin
Graduated in 1984 from the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine, London, Dr Chong began her medical career in the National Health Service (NHS), UK. While in the midst of her specialty training in radiotherapy and oncology, she found herself searching for other options—and that was when she decided to pursue her Masters in Business Administration (MBA) at the London Business School, in 1990.
Upon completing her MBA, Dr Chong worked as a management consultant in health economics in the UK, before returning to Malaysia in 1995. Since returning to her home country after living abroad for many years, Dr Chong has always been in the healthcare business, where she has held several top positions in managing hospitals—helping them to grow.
Dr Chong's diverse repertoire of experiences—acquired throughout her career—has seen her holding some of the senior management roles, including CEO of Sunway Medical Centre for 11 years, CEO of Prince Court Medical Centre for five years and Executive Director of Beacon International Specialist Centre, a specialist cancer care provider. She was recently appointed as Chief Executive Officer of IMU Healthcare.
1.	Tell us about your journey, what was the turning point that made you switch from working in the hospital to pursuing MBA?
I loved medical practice. The acute medicine, seeing patients in ER, tracking them through their hospital stay, seeing them through their illness, and working with the healthcare team—was really fun. Exhausting, but fun. Those were the days before there was any legislation about working hours; and we would do 120 – 140 hours per week. It taught me to be resilient and built up my stamina.
But, as you climb the ladder, it became (for me at least) less exciting—because I had to leave the juniors to the acute work whilst I as the senior, had to do more of the outpatient based work, which I found quite dull. I also realised that to climb the ladder further, I would have to take on research. And then I realised I was simply not cut out for that (to do a research-based doctorate). So, when a colleague suggested that I should explore an MBA—I did! And it was the biggest challenge of my life! [Smiles] To do financial accounting, economics, organisational behaviour—when all I knew was lungs, kidneys and heart! [Laughs]
2.	What is your biggest motivation and inspiration, especially to really be involved in the healthcare business?
As a clinical practitioner, you change lives one life at a time. In a healthcare business, there is an opportunity to change many lives at the same time—lives of your colleagues, lives of the patients who come to the hospital—and make a larger impact. But, this is me talking with hindsight. All I know is that when I did fall into medical management, I found it fun—and I discovered that I was reasonably good at it! [Smiles]
And this was a result of having some great mentors—particularly my first mentor, Mr Mack Banner, who was CEO at Subang Jaya Medical Centre (SJMC). He was the one who brought me in as a management trainee. He had a programme called "Administrative Residency", which allowed me to learn hospital management from the ground up.
3.	How would you describe the involvement of women in our healthcare scene?
The healthcare sector is actually taking the lead in this, as it has significantly more female participation than other sectors. Having said that, I would still like to see more women at the top. It's true we have them at lower to mid manager levels; but somehow, we don't have many who become CEOs or Directors. A significant percentage of female healthcare workers are in the nursing profession. At the moment, nursing is still at a Diploma level; and I have not seen too many who progress further from mid-manager level. This is possibly because they don't have further experience or qualifications in the larger environment of finance, business management. And this might also be related to time and cost. Time, because the person is likely to have family responsibilities to juggle, while cost is because few organisations will sponsor the manager to undertake the upskilling programmes.

4.	Was there any particular point in time (throughout your career), which marks your proudest moment as a woman (in healthcare)?
I wouldn't say the 'proudest moment'—but, I do remember the time spent in the 'Healthcare Lab' as being very interesting. This was the National Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) in 2010, and healthcare was one of the 12 national key economic areas. I was asked to be 'lab leader'—and it was remarkable to have the conversations and joint business development between private and public sector players. A wonderful experience that was, to be able to participate in a national project.
5.	Any advice or words of wisdom to those who aspire to follow your footsteps?
I learned about 'passion' when I was turned down for a job. I had met with Dame Cecily Saunders, the founder of the Hospice movement in UK—and said I wanted to go into palliative care. After asking about my interests etc, she told me quite frankly, that I should not go into this area of service—as it was a 'fall-back' option I had chosen; and it was not clear that I was truly passionate about this area. So really, if you're not passionate about the work you do, then go look for something that will really get you up in the morning!
Also, never stop learning—and a lot of this comes from 'active listening'. When we really listen to, and engage with people—whether someone we've just met or one of your own colleagues—it is amazing how much you can learn. It's fun at the same time!
Passionate about making a difference
Dr Chong shares the same concerns as most of the healthcare professionals regarding the general health of the nation. The biggest challenge for them would be changing mindsets and translating knowledge into practice and behaviours. "For instance, there's been so much research and knowledge about obesity-related diabetes and its impact on overall health. And yet, you still see people ignoring their medications, taking no notice of the dietary guidelines about food—ultimately, finding themselves with uncontrolled diabetes and all its complications. But, healthcare managers also have to ask themselves what their roles are: is it purely to ensure that share prices and bottom lines are healthy? Shouldn't their primary objective be to commit to clinical care and patient health?" asks Dr Chong.
Sharing about what's coming up in the pipeline, Dr Chong intends to start mentoring a whole community of healthcare professionals not just on 'how to be a good doctor' academically—but, also to instil the core value of 'why are you in this profession – and how can you make a difference'.
Dr Chong went from being a practising medical doctor to being one of the top women in healthcare business. She is a prime example that as a doctor, the passion to improve lives never goes away—and it is certainly not a one-way path. MIMS

12 kms from Ernakulam city, a leisurely walk through the lanes of the city is the best way to discover historic fort Kochi. An obscure fishing village that became the first European township in India, Kochi has an eventful and colourful history. The town was shaped by the Portuguese, the Dutch and later the British. The results of these cultural interfaces are seen in the remains of the indo European architecture here..

Gary Hart
Gary Warren Hartpence was born in Ottawa, Kansas, to Carl Riley and Nina Pritchard Hartpence, on November 28, 1936. He attended local schools and graduated from Bethany Nazarene College.
Hartpence married Oletha M Ludwig in Kansas City, Missouri, on August 10, 1958. He attended both Yale Divinity and Yale Law School. Both he and his father changed their surnames to Hart for simplicity. He began his career as an attorney with the U. S. Department of Justice. He was admitted to the bar in the District of Columbia and Colorado in 1965. After serving as the assistant to the solicitor of the U. S. Department of the Interior, Hart entered private practice at a firm in Denver, Colorado.
During the 1972 presidential primary Hart was named campaign manager for Democratic candidate George McGovern. Following McGovern's unsuccessful presidential campaign, Hart ran a successful campaign himself in 1974 for the U. S. Senate. As the junior senator from Colorado he earned a position on the Armed Services Committee; he was reelected in 1980.
In 1984 Hart launched a campaign for president. Walter Mondale received the Democrat Party's nomination and lost to incumbent President Ronald Reagan. Hart launched a second campaign for president in 1988, opting not run for reelection in the U.S. Senate. Allegations of an extra-marital affair began to circulate and Hart suspended his campaign, then reentered the race but failed to overcome the negative publicity. The party nominated Michael Dukakis who lost his bid to the Republican candidate, George H. W. Bush.
Hart returned to law, then pursued a doctorate in politics from Oxford University in 2001. Although he had considered a third run for president in 2004, he instead endorsed Democratic nominee John Kerry. Hart has written articles for the Huffington Post and other media, published books, served on the Council of Foreign Relations, served as vice chair of the advisory council for the U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security, and has been a guest lecturer to multiple universities.
In October 2014 Hart was appointed as the U. S. Envoy to Northern Ireland. He served in that capacity until January 20, 2017.

Today we take little break from haunted houses and slashers and watch Benji (2018). It's absolutely adorable. When it comes to these family films from Blumhouse, this is the best. Ashlee certainly loved it more than The Tooth Fairy.
I showed Ashlee Halloween, and we chat about it a little on the show. It upholds a grand tradition of me showing Ashlee movies when she's already about to go to bed, so you can guess how that screening went.
We also watched The First Purge for the Fourth of July! I look forward to talking about it on the show, but for now I'll say it was awesome and relevant and blunt as a bloody baseball bat with it's messaging. Honestly, I think we need more movies that can be schlocky and have something to say at the same time. Dumb movies can be smart, and The Purge series is our best modern example of this.


While there are many of us who live a simple life where, we are just able to cover bills and put food on the table and a roof over our head. There are many people who aren't able to do even that for themselves and their families.Mothers leaving their homes with not even as much as a toothbrush to get themselves and their children to safety and out of an abusive situation.Abuse is a major problem in our country, especially abuse against women and children.With this in mind we have teamed up with Rashieda Adams the amazing blogger behind TheEternalMuslimah to do a toiletry and non-perishable food drive for the Saartjie Baartman Centre for women and children.
The drive runs from the 23rd July until the 13th of August. Handover will be arranged for the 15th August (Womens month). Should you wish to donate you may contact me (Candice) on 081 3802879 or (Rashieda) on 082 752 0051 to arrange a drop off or collection. Both numbers are whatsapp friendly. All donations are welcome no matter how big or small.

The Brazilian endemic deep-water onefin skate (Gurgesiella dorsalifera) is a rare small species recently described in the 80's. No biological information is available on this species and its extremely restricted geographic distribution has been used to classify it as a vulnerable species under IUCN red list criteria. Twenty four specimens (115 to 207 mm disc width) were captured off southern Brazilian coast at the region of Cape Santa Marta Grande (State of Santa Catarina) by deep-water otter trawl (430-524 m). The analysis of stomach contents revealed an apparent opportunistic predation on juveniles of Urophycis brasiliensis (IRI = 6944), with an average total length of 21 mm, followed by mysidaceans (IRI = 2938), unidentified teleosts (IRI = 1969), the copepod Bradyidius plinioi (IRI = 393), and decapod crustaceans (IRI = 297). One mature female with 207 mm DW had two egg cases in its uteri.

A raia endêmica brasileira de profundidade Gurgesiella dorsalifera é uma espécie rara e de pequeno porte recentemente descrita nos anos 80. Não há informações disponíveis sobre a sua biologia e sua distribuição geográfica extremamente restrita tem sido utilizada para classificá-la como uma espécie vulnerável sob os critérios da Lista Vermelha da IUCN. Vinte e quatro espécimes (larguras de disco entre 115-207 mm) foram capturados na costa do sul do Brasil na região do Cabo de Santa Marta Grande (Estado de Santa Catarina) por arrasto de fundo de profundidade (430-524 m). A análise dos conteúdos estomacais revelou um aparente oportunismo predatório sobre juvenis de Urophycis brasiliensis (IRI = 6944) com comprimento total médio de 21 mm, seguido por crustáceos misidáceos (IRI = 2938), teleósteos não identificados (IRI = 1969), o copépode Bradyidius plinioi (IRI = 393) e crustáceos decápodes (IRI = 297). Uma fêmea adulta com 207 LD apresentava dois ovos, um em cada útero.

The skates of the genus Gurgesiella are poorly known and most of the literature is about occurrence reports in occasional deep-water surveys or in taxonomic reviews and species descriptions (McEachran & Compagno, 1980; McEachran, 1984; Rey-Carrasco & Acero, 1988; Seret, 1989; McEachran & Miyake, 1990). This genus comprises three small sized species, Gurgesiella atlantica (Bigelow & Schroeder, 1962), G. dorsalifera McEachran & Compagno, 1980 and G. furvescens de Buen, 1959, with an amphi-South America distribution (McEachran & Miyake, 1990). The two Atlantic species (G. atlantica and G. dosalifera) are considered sister species and the sister group of the eastern South Pacific species (G. furvescens) (McEachran & Compagno, 1980).
Gurgesiella dorsalifera was described by McEachran & Compagno (1980) based only on eight specimens and no further biological information was provided. This species is known only for the south-southeastern Brazilian upper continental slope at depths of 500-600 m (Séret & Andreata, 1992; Menni & Stehmann, 2000; Bernardes et al., 2006), and although it is frequently captured by the deep-water shrimp otter trawl fishery off southern coast, the only biological information on this species so far was provided by Menni & Stehmann (2000).
Twenty four specimens of G. dorsalifera were captured off Santa Marta Grande Cape region (SC-Brazil) by deep-water otter trawl in the past twenty years. Here we present the results on the analysis of the stomach contents of this rare species aiming to identify their probable trophic relationships and to describe some aspects of its reproductive characteristics and activity on the continental slope of Brazil.
In August of 1986 and September and October of 1991, twenty four specimens of G. dorsalifera were captured in three one hour sets of otter trawl in depths of 430 to 524 meters near Cabo de Santa Marta Grande (Brazil) by the ORV "Atlântico Sul" (1986 - 31º01'S-49º19'W one specimen; 1991 - 27º25S-47º07W-eight specimens and 29º47S-47º48W-fifteen specimens) (Fig. 1). The material was first conditioned in formalin 4%, later transferred to ethanol 70% and deposited at the elasmobranch collection of Department of Oceanography at the Fundação Universidade Federal de Rio Grande (FURG-Laboratório de Elasmobrânquios e Aves Marinhas). Twenty two specimens (8 males and 14 females), with disc widths (DW) ranging from 115 to 207 mm, were analyzed for identification of their stomach contents. In order to detect ontogenetic variation of prey composition, all skates were grouped in four DW classes (group 1 - 110-139; group 2 - 140-169; group 3 - 170-199; group 4 - 200-229 mm DW) and averages were statistically compared by a one way ANOVA test (a = 0,05) (Sokal & Rohlf, 1969). Statistical tests were performed by Statistica 5.4 software (STATSOFT). All items in the stomachs were identified to the lowest taxonomic level as possible, weighted to the nearest 0.001 gram, measured in millimeters and counted for the Index of Relative Importance (Pinkas et al., 1971) analysis of the pooled data: %FO x (%W + %N); where %FO is the percentage of frequency of an item, %N is the percentage of the number and %W is the percentage of its weight, which was used in the place of percentage volume of the original formula. Each item was partially dried using paper towel and weighted on a precision Marte scale, model 506. The fullness was also observed as: 0-empty, 1-a quarter; 2-half; 3-three quarters and 4-completely full. The reproductive system of a mature female was also described based on terminology of Hamlett & Koob (1999).
The results of stomach contents composition are expressed as an IRI diagram (Fig. 2) with the following order of importance: Urophycis brasiliensis (IRI = 6944), mysidaceans (IRI = 2938), unidentified teleosts (probably digested U. brasiliensis, IRI = 1969), copepod Bradyidius plinioi (IRI = 393), decapod crustaceans (IRI = 297), polichaetes (IRI = 3.1) and copepod Parapseudocyclops giselae (IRI = 2.6). Twenty stomachs were full or half full containing mainly juveniles of U. brasiliensis with an average size of 22 mm TL and two stomachs were empty. A single stomach had 14 U. brasiliensis with an average size of 21 mm TL. G. dorsalifera seems to be a piscivorous skate feeding mainly on juveniles of U. brasiliensis with an average total length of 22 mm. This teleost represented 66.1% of the weight, 33.1% of the number and 70% of frequency of occurrence. Mysidaceans were the second item in relative importance and represented 10% of weight, 35.2% of the number and 65% of frequency of occurrence. All the mysidaceans were represented by one single species that could not be identified, although very well preserved, and seems to be an undescribed species. Unidentified teleosts were the third item in relative importance and were 19.3% in weight, 16.5% in number and 55% of frequency of occurrence. The copepod B. plinioi was the fourth item in relative importance with 0.16% in weight, 7.7% of number and 50% of frequency of occurrence. Crustaceans were the fifth item in relative importance with 3.7% of weight, 6.2% of number and 30% of frequency of occurrence. Polichaetes and P. giselae had percentage numbers and weight of less than 1% and both were recorded by single occurrences.
Significant differences of average prey size were observed between the four groups of skate size classes (DW) (group 1 - 4) (F = 4.35; p = 0.006). However, no apparent tendency of relationship was evident on the scatterplot of prey size (TL) vs. predator size (DW) (Fig. 3). The use of DW or TL as predator size estimator had no effect on the analysis as TL and DW were linearly positive correlated (F = 643.77, p = 0.00) (Fig. 4). The relation between skate size (DW) and proportional prey size of U. brasiliensis (prey size as TL/predator DW x 100) is seen in the Fig. 5 and evidence an apparent tendency of narrowing the range of prey size with growth in order to stabilize under the limit of 20% of the predator DW. This relation ranged from 40.8% (group 1) to 3.3% (group 3) with an average of 15.3%. The largest amplitude of proportional prey size in the same predator size class was 19.7% DW (7.3-27.0% DW) (group 1).
One mature female (207 mm disc width and 365 mm total length) had one partially formed egg case in each 14 mm width horseshoe shaped oviducal gland (Fig. 6). Each uterus had part of the egg case which was opened to the oviducal gland and ready to receive the ova after fertilization. The left egg case was yellowish golden, 45 mm length, 16 mm wide and had two 33 mm anterior tendril-like horns directed to the cloaca. Both ovaries were functional and leaf shaped. The left ovary had a single 3 mm vitellogenic diameter follicle and total weight of 1.2 grams, while the right ovary had a yellow 4 mm diameter follicle, six undeveloped white follicles and total weight of 0.9 grams. The cloaca was slightly extroverted suggesting recent egg deposition activity. The partially formed egg case occupied the whole uterus. Another female with 375 mm total length (205 mm width) was immature with developing follicles of 1 mm diameter and 7 mm width oviducal glands. Both uteri were creamy and strongly attached to the dorsal cavity wall. All other females were still immature with undifferentiated follicles in their 8-12 mm length ovaries and presented undeveloped 1.5-2 mm width oviducal glands. No mature male was found based on clasper rigidity.
The presence of immature males, females and one mature female in the analysis indicates that teleosts may be an important food item throughout the life of G. dorsalifera and that the area is used by the whole population for feeding purposes. We have also observed occasional massive landings of mature (males and females) and immature specimens of the onefin skate captured as bycatch by the deep-water trawl squid fishery off southern Brazil (July-September/2000) with stomachs full of squid chunks (Illex argentinus). These specimens were not included in this study since no precise catch locality information was available, but they were probably feeding on aggregations of spawned dead squids left on the sea floor (Santos & Haimovici, 1997).
Adults of U. brasiliensis are not common in deep waters of 400 to 600 meters (Haimovici et al., 1994), but the high importance of these juveniles in the stomachs is strong evidence that it could be a nursery area for U. brasiliensis. Comyns & Grant (1992) have observed indications of a shoreward migration for recruitment of U. tenuis in the U.S Middle Atlantic Bight and larger concentrations of U. brasiliensis larvae have also been observed on offshore to oceanic waters of Southern Brazil (José Muelbert pers. com.). Haimovici et al. (1996) report that juveniles with total lengths of 15 cm or less are common on coastal waters of Southern Brazil in spring and summer. If juveniles of U. brasiliensis with total lengths of about 20-30 millimeters are using deep waters as nursery ground and migrating to the coast as they grow, they probably suffer the predation of G. dorsalifera. However, the high importance of juveniles of U. brasiliensis (i.e. IRI values) must be carefully considered, even if this importance has been confirmed in three different sampling periods (August, September and October). This apparent selectivity may be an artifact resulted from a recent reproductive activity of U. brasiliensis and consequently increased the number of juveniles in the area. The high values of %FO reported for all non single occurrences of feeding groups (30 to 70%), the homogeneous size of all U. brasiliensis found in the analyzed stomachs and the lack of predator/prey size relationship, may suggest that only juveniles of a given size were available in the area for any onefin skate size and are evidences of the predator's opportunistic behavior.
McEachran & Compagno (1980) have observed immature males with total lengths of 384 mm and 319 mm but the holotype was already mature at 424 mm TL. The largest analyzed male had 340 mm total length and uncalcified claspers. Based on the present analyzed specimen, females of G. dorsalifera probably mature at total lengths of up to 365 mm. Thus, males seem to reach their maturity at larger sizes than females. The only mature female was already in oviposition phase and the observed ovarian fecundity probably did not correspond to the initial ovarian fecundity at the beginning of reproductive cycle. These results added to the information on the capture of mature and immature specimens by the deep-water trawl squid fishery suggest that the area probably is a nesting and nursery ground for the species.
Oddone & Vooren (2002) and Jañez & Sueiro (2007) provided newborns' DW and egg case widths for Sympterigya acuta and S. bonapartii, respectively. Based on these values, the average DW of newborns ranged from 1.4 (S. acuta) to 1.9 (S. bonapartii) times the egg case width. Therefore, if the same proportions are also applied to the onefin skate, embryos hatch from their egg cases (16 mm width) at sizes between 22 to 31 mm DW, probably one of the smallest known newborn skates.
The restricted known distribution of the onefin skate, which is endemic to deep-waters off south-southeastern Brazilian coast and its possible vulnerability to any deep-water otter trawl activity within its area of distribution, has been used as arguments to categorize G. dorsalifera as a vulnerable species under IUCN's red list criteria (Rincon, 2004). The development of a deep-water fishery such as the monkfish and squid fisheries currently in action at the same known geographic range of the onefin skate (Perez et al., 2003) and the severe lack of information on almost every aspect of this species bring concern to its future conservation.

De blauwe kiekendief (Circus cyaneus) is een roofvogel uit de familie der havikachtigen (Accipitridae).

Kenmerken
Het vrouwtje is groter dan het mannetje en bruin met een witte stuit. Mannetjes zijn effen blauwgrijs. De poten en ogen zijn geel. Een volwassen vogel is 45 tot 55 cm groot, 350 tot 525 gram zwaar en heeft een spanwijdte van 97-118 cm.

Leefwijze
Deze trekvogel vliegt tijdens zijn zoektocht naar prooi laag boven de grond. Met zijn scherpe ogen en goed gehoor lokaliseert hij kleine zoogdieren en vogels in de vegetatie.

Voortplanting
Het nest bevindt zich op de grond, vaak in hoge vegetatie en is samengesteld uit takjes en plantenstengels. Deze vegetatie moet bescherming bieden tegen de vos. Een legsel bestaat meestal uit vier tot vijf witte eieren.

Voedsel
De hoofdprooi is het konijn, maar zangvogels en muizen zijn ook belangrijke voedselbronnen.

Verspreiding
Ze leven vooral in open, vochtige gebieden zoals moerassen en oevergebieden in Noord- en Midden-Amerika, Europa en Azië. In de winter komen Scandinavische blauwe kiekendieven Nederland binnen om te overwinteren. Zij jagen hier dan op veldmuizen.

Beschermingsstatus
Het aantal broedparen in Nederland daalt sterk sinds 1993 en de blauwe kiekendief is intussen een zeer schaarse broedvogel. De vogelsoort, hoewel internationaal geen bedreigde soort, staat daarom als gevoelig op de Nederlandse rode lijst.

De soort heeft een aantal broedplaatsen op de Waddeneilanden, in de Dintelse Gorzen, de Oostvaardersplassen, de Meinweg en zeer verspreid in het noorden van Nederland. In 2000 bedroeg het aantal broedparen hoogstens 100 paar, in de periode 2005-2008 was dit afgenomen tot 34-51 paar en in 2020 is het aantal broedparen verder afgenomen tot 12 paar.

Leader of Brent Council cleared of 'hiding death of councillor to stall by-electon'
PUBLISHED: 13:07 07 October 2016 | UPDATED: 13:18 07 October 2016
Lorraine King
Cllr Muhammed Butt has been cleared of any wrongdoing
The leader of Brent Council has been cleared of claims he covered-up the death of a councillor to stall a by-election following an independent investigation.
Cllr Tayo Oladapo died in January
The probe, led by independent investigator Richard Penn, looked into the allegation that Cllr Muhammed Butt purposely hid the news that Cllr Tayo Oladapo had died until an announcement was made in March
Cllr Oladapo, a 34-year-old Labour councillor in the Kilburn ward, died on January 29 following a long illness.
According to an email leaked to the press from the borough's former Labour Party organiser, Cllr Butt delayed announcing his death until March for political reasons.
Brent resident Philip Grant subsequently claimed Cllr Butt had breached the council's code of conduct.
Mr Penn, a former local authority chief executive of two major metropolitan authorities with 35 years of public sector experience, looked into the events leading up to the announcement of Cllr Oladapo's death.
He also scrutinised the town hall's policy regarding councillors who are continuously absent from council meetings.
Cllr Oladapo last attended a meeting in November 2014 with his subsequent absences from meetings being approved by the council until his death was confirmed.
Under current rules any councillor who fails to attend mandatory council meetings for six months, except certain exceptions, automatically loses their position and a by-election is called.
Mr Penn interviewed five council officers as witnesses.
Cllr Butt, the person who made the allegation and seven Labour councillors were also interviewed as part of the investigation.
Last month a 43-page report was released which details the investigation in its entirety.
Exonerating Cllr Butt, Mr Penn said: "I have found no breach of the London Borough of Brent's member's code of conduct."
According to Mr Penn's report the Labour Party have ruled that no further action would be taken against Cllr Butt following claims it had launched its own investigation.
Cllr Butt had vehemently denied any wrongdoing saying the claims were made for 'political point scoring'.

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com (https://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com/) announces a new blog post, "How to Get Cheaper Car Insurance for Teens"
LOS ANGELES, April 14, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has launched a new blog post that presents several methods that will help teens to obtain cheaper car insurance.
Car insurance for teen drivers can be very expensive. Insurance companies classify teen drivers as high-risk from various reasons and charge them accordingly if they want to obtain insurance.
Get on a family plan. Teen drivers should check if being added to the family plan is a better deal than being alone on a separate insurance policy. In many cases, teens can take advantage of several discounts that are offered to their parents. Be advised that many insurance companies will rate the teen driver at all the vehicles covered by the policy, thus the overall price of the policy will increase significantly. Before a teen is added to the family plan, it is recommended to do careful research and see how this action will affect the premiums.
Check the good student discount. Insurance companies consider teens that take good grades at school as more responsible and less likely to cause car accidents. Teens that can prove they have at least a 3.0 GPA can qualify for a good student discount. Usually, this discount can be as high as 15% of the price of the insurance policy.
Choose the right vehicle to insure. The price of insurance for teenagers is highly influenced by the cars they drive. The vehicle model, make, year of production, are all important factors that determine the price of a policy. To lower the insurance costs, teenagers can drive slightly used SUV's or minivans that come equipped with several safety features as standard.
Consider signing a driving contract. Some insurance companies will require the teen drivers to sign a driving contract where they accept to always drive carefully and obey the laws, wear their seatbelts, never drive while being drunk or under drugs influence, never use their cell phones while behind the wheels, promise to contribute to the car's maintenance. By doing so, teen drivers can obtain large discounts.
Take advantage of usage-based insurance. This is the fastest way for teenagers to obtain significant discounts on their policy. Usually, insurance companies will install a small telematics device that will record data about the driving habits of a driver. Policyholders that display good driving habits can obtain discounts as high as 40%.

OCR Emphasizes Security Obligations of Business Associates with Latest Enforcement
By Madeline Gitomer
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights (OCR) is taking an aggressive stand on HIPAA enforcement and targeting violations related to security risk assessments and business associate agreements. Three resolution agreements posted in the last month make clear that the agency expects entities subject to HIPAA to take appropriate steps to secure their data, regardless of the size or type of the entity.
Holding Business Associates Accountable for HIPAA Security Rule Compliance
OCR announced on June 29 that the Catholic Health Care Services of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia (CHCS) agreed to a $650,000 settlement and corrective action plan for potential HIPAA violations after the theft of an iPhone compromised the health information of more than 400 nursing home residents. This resolution agreement marked the first time that OCR entered into a settlement with a business associate directly.
CHCS operated as a business associate to six skilled nursing facilities, providing management and information technology services. The iPhone stolen from CHCS was unencrypted and not password protected, even though it stored extensive information including social security numbers and detailed medical information. OCR highlighted in its press release that CHSH had not completed a risk analysis or risk management plan, had no policy for the removal of mobile devices containing PHI from its facility, and had no security incident response plan. In the settlement, CHCS agreed to develop and implement the necessary policies and procedures to secure personal health information, including on mobile phones, as part of its two-year corrective action plan.
Identifying and Addressing Security Vulnerabilities in a Timely Manner
OCR announced on July 18 a $2.7 million settlement and three-year corrective action plan with Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU), after the public university reported several breaches involving unencrypted laptops and a stolen unencrypted thumb drive. Upon investigating these incidents, OCR discovered that OHSU was storing the ePHI, including sensitive health information, of more than 3,000 individuals on a cloud-based server without a business associate agreement. OCR also found that though OHSU had performed security risk analyses in the past, those analyses did not cover all ePHI in OHSU's enterprise, and OHSU did not act in a timely manner to address the risks identified. In announcing the agreement, OCR Director Jocelyn Samuels stated, "OHSU should have addressed the lack of a business associate agreement before allowing a vendor to store ePHI," As part of the corrective action plan, OHSU will implement encryption for all mobile devices with access to PHI and develop a comprehensive risk management plan covering all systems, networks, and devices engaging with PHI.
Safeguarding ePHI on Shared Networks
Shortly thereafter, OCR announced on July 21 a $2.75 million settlement and a three-year corrective action plan with the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) after a stolen laptop was reported to OCR as a breach. OCR's investigation of that incident revealed that UMMC maintained an unsecured network drive accessible by generic username and password to UMMC wireless network users. That drive contained the ePHI of an estimated 10,000 individuals. In its resolution agreement, OCR focused on UMMC's alleged failure to implement safeguards against known risks and vulnerabilities in the systems storing ePHI. OCR highlighted in its press release that the generic username and password used by UMMC was insufficient security for a wireless network containing ePHI; UMMC should have implemented a unique user ID system so it could track which specific users accessed ePHI. Under its corrective action plan, UMMC is required to draft an enterprise-wide risk analysis and risk management plan to reduce the risks and vulnerabilities to ePHI in its systems.
These three resolution agreements provide the following insights into OCRs focus and approach to HIPAA investigations and enforcement:
Appropriate security risk analysis and management are critical to HIPAA compliance for covered entities and business associates and the failure to document compliance efforts can result in significant penalties.
Entities should ensure that a comprehensive risk management plan covers everywhere ePHI is maintained—including mobile phones, wireless networks, laptops, thumb drives, and cloud storage centers—and ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for its protection.
Though business associates have been subject to the requirements of the HIPAA Security Rule for years, they are officially on notice that breaches and investigations of their compliance can result in significant settlement amounts and corrective action plans.
A single breach or incident can lead to a much more extensive OCR investigation. Many of the alleged findings on which settlement amounts and corrective action plans are based relate not to the incident initially investigated, but to unrelated non-compliance identified through further investigation. Many incidents now lead to a comprehensive HIPAA compliance investigation, and entities reporting breaches should be prepared to provide information and documentation related to their entire HIPAA compliance program OCR breach investigations.

Mr. Mohammed Katu, the legal counsel for the former Chairman, Presidential Pension Reform Task Team, Abdulrasheed Maina, told the House of Reps on Thursday that his client was still receiving salaries despite the report that he had been dismissed from service.
He also claimed that Maina treated official files up to last month (October).
Maina was not present as an ad hoc committee of the House opened its investigative hearing into the disappearance and reinstatement of the fugitive into the public service in Abuja.
The committee is chaired by a member of the APC from Kano State, Mr. Aliyu Madaki.
Katu said his client was not dismissed from service and that he only sought judicial intervention in 2013 when he realised that there was a move to dismiss him from service.
He added that while the litigation was in progress, Maina "disappeared" from Nigeria because his life was in danger.
However, when a member of the committee, Mrs. Ayo Omidiran, quoted a 2014 letter Maina wrote to the Federal Civil Service Commission, pleading for a review of his dismissal, Katu insisted that his client was still in service.
Omidiran stated, "We are not children here, and let the impression not be created that those of us sitting on this committee do not know what we are doing.
"If Maina wrote to the FCSC to appeal for a review of his dismissal, why would you be saying that he was not dismissed?
When asked again, Katu insisted that as far as his client was concerned, he was still in the service.

Farm leaders in last-ditch battle against Mercosur deal

Farm leaders were last night fighting a rearguard action against a sign-off on the Mercosur trade deal between the EU and South American countries.
https://www.independent.ie/business/farming/agri-business/farm-leaders-in-lastditch-battle-against-mercosur-deal-38248489.html
https://www.independent.ie/incoming/article38248624.ece/dc755/AUTOCROP/h342/il%20EU%20office%20protest2.jpg
Details of the deal, which could allow almost 100,000 tonnes of South American beef into the EU, are expected to be shared with Member States today in Brussels.
One senior official said yesterday that this is "the closest to a Mercosur deal being struck as we've ever been at" after almost 20 years of negotiations.
Farming organisations continued to keep pressure on to prevent a deal that they have warned will be devastating for the Irish beef sector.
IFA president Joe Healy called on Taoiseach Leo Varadkar to veto a bad Mercosur deal. "As it stands, the proposals are very bad and will seriously damage our beef sector. The Taoiseach needs to plant our flag in the ground and say Ireland will not go along with the charade of a raft of climate actions in Europe, while encouraging the destruction of rainforests in Brazil," he said.
Mr Healy claimed it was completely contradictory for Ireland to sign up to a deal that would bring in more beef from Brazil so soon after the publication of the Climate Action Plan.
"The Taoiseach says the Mercosur countries must comply with EU environmental standards. They don't, and both the Taoiseach and the EU Commission know this, because they have the evidence," he said.
"In view of the major Brexit implications overhanging the Irish and EU beef sector, and the environmental degradation associated with Brazilian beef exports, it would be reckless to support a Mercosur deal."
The belief in Brussels is that EU Trade Commissioner Cecilia Malmstrom is pushing hard to try and finalise an EU-Mercosur deal in the next week or so.
The move is backed by the German government, who see the Mercosur markets of Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay as an emerging outlet, particularly for cars.
The IFA claim that Europe's farmers are being sacrificed in the interests of industry.
"The EU Commission Joint Research Centre conducted an assessment on the cumulative impact of trade deals which showed that increased imports from Mercosur could cost the EU beef sector €5bn to €7bn per annum," said Mr Healy.

History Brooklyn Boro
Kaufman's Brooklyn: Eight photos of 'Public service organizations: children'
August 24, 2020 Phil Kaufman
Photos courtesy of Phil Kaufman
My father, Irving Kaufman (1910 – 1982), was a professional photographer who started in Brooklyn in the mid 1930s working for the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. He captured thousands of images of Brooklyn through the 1950s. I have recently digitized a great many of them. My father's profile can be found here.
This week's theme:
This week's theme is "Public service organizations: children." It's similar to last week's focus, "Public service organizations: healthcare." These photos of children often involve healthcare services, but also include general child welfare programs. Also, as was the case last week, these organizations were privately funded and organized, with minimal government support.
More by coincidence than design, this week also highlights four organizations; my father happened to do a lot of work for these four. Two were specifically Jewish — partly, I'm sure, because my father was familiar with them and may have had connections to them, but also because of the large and active Jewish community in Brooklyn at the time. The four organizations are the Brooklyn Hebrew Orphanage Asylum (BHOA), the Brooklyn Home for Children (BHC), the Flatbush Boys Club (FBC) and the Jewish Hospital and Sanitarium for Chronic Diseases (JHCD).
Today's photos:
This week I will display photos from a single organization each day. The BHOA will be shown today and also on Thursday, simply because I have a great many photos from there — and many of them happen to be of adorable kids. The other three organizations will be featured on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.
The Brooklyn Hebrew Orphan Asylum was founded in 1878 by a group of Jewish philanthropists (led, coincidentally, by a man named Sigismund Kaufman — no relation, as far as I know). They opened in 1879 with 10 children in a building at 384 McDonough St. The next decades saw enormous Jewish immigration and the home expanded dramatically. By 1909 it housed over 600 children in a large full-block, multi-story facility in Crown Heights.
From the beginning, not all children were orphans. Many had living parents who were too poor to provide adequate care. Also, by the 1920s, BHOA worked to provide foster care for as many children as possible. By the time these pictures were taken, more than two-thirds of the children referred to BHOA had been placed with foster families. In fact, some of the pictures below were taken for the purpose of distribution to potential foster parents. The fostering success grew to the point that in 1940 BHOA closed the large residential facility and changed its identity from "Orphan Asylum" to "Service Bureau." In 1960, together with a number of other Jewish social service groups, it merged into Jewish Family Services.
Below are seven photos, all taken between 1936 and 1940, of the youngest children in residence. I always like to give credit, when I can, to the adults who made these socially valuable organizations possible. The final picture is of the executive director of BHOA at the time, whose name I don't know. I assume she was a paid employee, not a volunteer, but I also assume she wasn't paid very much and worked very hard.
An index of Kaufman's Brooklyn posts may be found here.
Irving Kaufman's profile may be found here.
I invite you to submit comments, memories, images of Brooklyn, and especially any additional background information you can supply about the photos posted here to [email protected] I'd also be glad to supply information about buying prints of any of the images seen here. Many of my father's images are also available for viewing and purchase at http://yourartgallery.com/irvingkaufmanstudios. All prints purchased will be the product of professional scanning and editing.

We cannot thank Mr. Ray Luniewski enough for his caring generosity when we needed a bus. We would like to apologize for the unkind remarks that one of our members wrote about the vehicle, posting for the whole world to see. Dave Campbell posted that the State of Pennsylvania has only computer records of inspections and licensing. They no longer use stickers on the license plates with an expiration date. The Lake Erie bus was fully and currently licensed as well as inspected. Again, we apologize to the Lake Erie Regiment Corps on behalf of the Pioneer for the embarrassing and ungrateful gossip posting of one of our members.

Q: Dynamically load script to opera from bookmarklet I wrote bookmarklet:
Go

How you can see it dinamically load js-script to a page. It's works in Chrome, FF, IE (!!!), but doesn't works in Opera: "Linked script not loaded     Init.js" Can someone tell me why?

A: Opera has a security restriction that blocks access to local sites (eg. localhost) from internet sites and vica versa.  Put the script on a site with a address in the internet range and it should be fine.
Note that if this script is for your internal use only, you can disable this restriction with the opera:config#Network|AllowCrossNetworkNavigation setting.

This song has always kind of freaked me out...two Siamese cats creepily singing to Lady just to intimidate her and freak her out? No thank you.

Hodgkinson had been identified as the shooter at the congressional baseball practice Wednesday morning, where a congressman and three other people were shot.
Hodgkinson was killed by police.
Now more than 24 hours after the shootout, some leaders in Belleville are defending their community and its residents.
The Ogles neighborhood is less than 10 minutes from Hodgkinson's home.
And in the wake of the shooting, some residents felt pain as the media released more information about Hodgkinson.
Hagnauer said some of his friends even had their homes inspected by Hodgkinson or his company, JTH Inspections, also called JTH Construction.
Others called the shooter's connection to Belleville disappointing.
"It kind of makes me feel a little bit ashamed," Shawn Pfaff said after hearing the news Wednesday.
But some community members are more concerned about how the city can move forward.
Roger Wigginton, Belleville Alderman Ward 8, agreed.
