Rachel Roddy is a food writer based in Rome.
This morning as I walked into the kitchen I was met by the smell of just-after-Christmas. Despite the cold, the scent from the bowl of mandarins in the middle of the table conjured up my parents' hallway in late December. The memory was only a flash, but it stopped me in my anti-slide sock tracks. It was all there: a house full of family, the weary tree hitting the ceiling and under it, among the dry needles and great tangle of fairy-light wires, a crate half-full of orange fruit. Is it because food is destined for our stomach that memories stir there?
The word nostalgia is a compound of two Greek words: nóstos (homecoming) and álgos (ache). At 7 o'clock this morning I felt both: an unusual thing for me. I put the oven on for heat and toast, and a pot of coffee, then sat in the nostalgia. As the kitchen warmed, the smell got stronger. Such power from a bowl of fruit! It was then I realised it wasn't the bowl of fruit at all, but a heap of yesterday's mandarin peelings in the rubbish bin, which was warming up next to the oven. But this discovery didn't rubbish everything; it amused me. It put things nicely in persective, and the kitchen still smelled lovely.
We were away for only 12 days, but in that time Rome has descended into a chilly vortex. Our communal heating has failed to clunk back on, which is the reason we are wearing many layers and why the suitcases are still unpacked, lying there like great open mouths, spewing clothes. I haven't unpacked in the kitchen either, in the sense that I am not really back in a cooking rhythm, despite the fact it is my job to be. I was meant to be writing about poached fish "in crazy water" as the Italians have it, but that will have to wait. For now, we are on running on any reassuring basic that will provide heat: soup, beans with pasta, and, tonight, frittata.
You don't need telling how to make the fat, open-faced egg dish Italians call frittata. As Pelegrino Artusi says in his introduction to Science in the Kitchen and the Art of Cooking Well, who doesn't know how to make a frittata? But even the simplest things – or perhaps especially the simplest things – deserve to be well made. A frittata should be tender and well seasoned, the eggs should be beaten lightly, it should be cooked in good fat – olive oil or butter (or both) – and in the shortest time possible. On one side only.
Non girare la frittata – don't flip the frittata – is a phrase I am familiar with. It is not just cooking advice: in Italy, to flip the frittata means to change your tune, and apparently I am an expert at doing so. Against the advice of some, I also flip my real frittatas. The reasoning behind not flipping, simply inverting on to a plate, is that the fritatta remains tender, like the heart of a good omelette I suppose. My mother-in-law is a firm believer in this theory, although she does appreciate my way of doing things, too. Like most people, she agrees a flip, then brief cooking on the second side, gives a lovely golden coat without compromising tenderness too much. Finishing in the oven is another option that avoids plate acrobatics, and it is neater, but the result is on the sturdy side.
I was stuck in my ways with frittata – pea and potato, gangly wild asparagus my eccentric neighbour finds for me, ricotta and mint – until I read a recipe for pumpkin frittata in Katie Parla's fine book about Roman food. For a moment I felt like my grandma when we told her our childhood discoveries: "Well I never." I now know what you already knew: that pumpkin in fritatta is delicious. It is a dish traditional to Roman Sephardic Jews, one often made during Rosh Hashanah, when gourds or pumpkins are eaten to ward off evil and bring a trouble-free year.
You want to cook the pumpkins slowly, letting them collapse into a sweetly savoury mess, which is then encased by eggs. Sage – musty, assertive and virile – loves pumpkin, so it works well here. Whether you flip or not, let the frittata rest briefly, then serve in slices with green salad, some cheese and, for afters, mandarin oranges. Don't forget to put a curl of peel on a radiator, or by the oven. It makes the kitchen smell lovely.
1 Peel and slice the onion, potato and pumpkin. In a medium-size frying pan with a lid, fry the onion in 4 tbsp of the olive oil.
2 After 2 minutes add the potato and pumpkin. Stir until each slice is glistening, then cover the pan, lower the heat and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. If it looks as if it's sticking, add a little water. By the end of cooking time the vegetables should be really soft and collapsing.
3 Add the sage, salt and pepper and cook for a minute longer, uncovered.
4 Beat the eggs in a large bowl with salt and pepper. Either pour this over the vegetables or – if you are afraid of the egg sticking or you are using an iron pan – scrape the vegetables into the egg bowl, wipe the pan clean, smear with butter, then pour it all back in the pan, stirring until the eggs begin to cook.
5 Let the frittata cook over a low heat. As the edges start to set, use a spatula to ease them away from the pan sides. Once the frittata is golden underneath – mostly set but with a wobbly top, which takes about 10 minutes – you can either serve as is, or, if you want it crisper, either finish the frittata in the oven, or invert twice on to a plate and put it back briefly in the pan to cook the other side.


The share of the tourism industry in the economy of Akmola region will grow by eight per cent by 2023. In addition to the Pearl of Kazakhstan, The Burabay resort area, the government will pay attention to the development of the area around Astana.

India is at the cusp of a paradigm shift where 200 million children need education and employment. Seize it, and we would be at the forefront of an economic and demographic renaissance.
A plethora of government initiatives to provide access to primary education may be underway, but issues of equity, quality and access remain areas of concern particularly in rural schools. Children in rural areas continue to be deprived of quality education owing to factors like lack of competent and committed teachers, lack of textbooks or teaching-learning materials and so on.
We believe that education and employment are two crucial weapons to win the war against poverty. Rane Group has been actively involved with several educational institutions in supporting and providing industry exposure opportunities to students and faculty. Most of our initiatives have been aimed at improving infrastructure for schools in the rural areas of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Telangana.
Our commitment to imparting quality education dates back to 1960 when Rane Group founder Mr. L.L Narayan donated his personal land in Gopalapuram to the Government. This went on to become the famous Ganapathy Iyer Girls Higher Secondary School. His pioneering vision for education helped and supported educational institution like Meenakshi College for Women.
Rane Polytechnic
Rane Polytechnic Technical Campus (RPTC) was established in Sethurapatti village, Trichy in 2011. Since its inception RPTC has contributed to the industry needs and sustainable development of rural youth. RPTC focuses on the holistic development of students by providing theoretical knowledge (curriculum), technical exposure (on the job training) and management programs. It offers diploma courses to secondary and candidates and follows the curriculum and evaluation system as prescribed by the DOTE. Our college governing council comprising of eminent members from industry, academia and government oversee the operations. RPTC is accredited by NBA for Diploma in Mechanical Engineering (DME) course. RPTC is based on the "Green Building" concept with maximum natural lighting and water conservation methods built into its ecosystem. It has created employment opportunities for over 1200 students over the last 6 years.

Rane Vidyalaya
India has made significant progress in ensuring children's access to school with near-universal enrolment in primary education over the last decade. Ensuring access to primary education and improving quality and learning are two sides of the same coin, requiring efforts to address both.
We are embarking upon an exciting journey to set up Rane Vidyalaya at Theerampalayam, Manachanallur district. This school will realize the dream of providing quality wholesome education to rural children. The school from Nursery to Class 12 will follow CBSE curriculum and opens its doors for the academic session 2018-19.
www.ranevidyalaya.org/
Augmenting School Infrastructure
Financially, we also support various other schools and institutions:
Ganapathy Iyer Girls' High School, located in Gopalapuram, Chennai, is a Government-aided School. This school provides high-quality education for economically backward girls living in the area. The school building suffered the onslaught of Chennai floods in 2015. We volunteered to mitigate the damages and ensured that the 270 students of the school get back to their routine within a month. We continue to volunteer for various activities and the help that the school needs.
Learning made Fun
Eureka Nursery and Primary Schools were founded in 2006 with the vision of providing high quality affordable education to rural children from poor families. What sets the schools apart is their outcome oriented teaching methodology and "fun and effective" learning environment. We have partnered with Eureka School, Vembakkam & Kalpakkam and have supported them financially. It is heartening to see the growing confidence of these children to realize their true potential.

Liverpool fans may feel fate has conspired against them during the Premier League era.
The Reds have won everything else on offer since 1992, including the Champions League, but a league crown has alluded them in a number of cruel ways.
Steven Gerrard's slip is the most infamous example, though many would argue the 3-3 draw at Selhurst Park was a more decisive blow.
Is it their year for real this time?
With 39 points from their opening 15 games and their undefeated status still in tact, this is the best start to a domestic league season in Liverpool's 126-year history.
Only six English top flight teams have ever had more points at the same stage of the season.
And yet, they occupy second place.
Such is the imperious nature of Pep Guardiola's Man City machine.
The Reds have scrapped admirably in recent weeks.
They came from behind to beat Burnley, scored a (freakish) 96th-minute winner against Everton, and have got over the line in games without reaching top gear.
It is often said that winning games in which you are below par is a sign of champions.
Liverpool have hung onto Man City's coattails during a period in which Guardiola's side have overrun and outclassed their opponents.
Few would argue against City's status as comfortably the best team in the league right now.
All things considered, a two-point deficit won't concern Jurgen Klopp too much.
Inevitably, City will face a lean run in which results will be more difficult to come by.
And Liverpool will probably blow away consecutive opponents; their front three haven't clicked in every game but they're still irresistible on their day.
Forgive the Brendan Rodgers-ism, but wins against Everton and Burnley have proved Klopp's side's character.
Previous Liverpool title-contenders may have played glorious football, but they were found wanting in key moments.
Rival fans still point to Klopp's record in finals as evidence that Liverpool are not yet the finished product — Real Madrid's triumph in Kiev was a particularly painful near-miss for the Anfield faithful.
Fate's latest attempt to deny Liverpool a Premier League crown pits them against perhaps the best team in Premier League history.
City's centurions are averaging three goals every league game with the supply coming from all over the pitch.
Aymeric Laporte has improved their defence while, after a shaky start, Riyad Mahrez has blossomed under Guardiola's tutelage.
The most worrying aspect for Liverpool and City's rivals is that Kevin De Bruyne has hardly featured through injury.
In a not-to-dissimilar parallel universe, Liverpool have a six-point lead and are overwhelming favourites to break the hoodoo.
As it is, they will have overhaul Pep's ever-improving record-breakers.
Tough, but they couldn't help for a more rewarding victory were they to pull it off.
Are they equipped to do so?
Many of Liverpool's title charges have come undone in defence.
But a first-choice quartet of Alexander-Arnold/Gomez/Van Dijk/Robertson in front of Alisson appears capable of the challenge.
Liverpool have conceded just six goals in the league — the best record of all 20 teams.
Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane proved last season they have enough firepower to trouble any defence.
Question marks remain in midfield as Klopp continues to search for the right balance.
Jordan Henderson, James Milner, Gini Wijnaldum, Fabinho, Xherdan Shaqiri, Naby Keita and Adam Lallana are all fighting it out for places in a three-man dynamic.
Liverpool are hardly shy in resource, but exploring all options fully takes time, something rarely afforded in hyperbolic modern football.
Depending on Spurs, Chelsea and Arsenal's form, we could witness the most dominant two-horse title race in Premier League history.
Fine margins make for great drama.
Liverpool will be happy to keep pace for now, but at some point they will need to dig deeper and set it.
Over to you, Herr Klopp.
Are Man City actually stronger without their best player?

Skilled warns that COVID-19 circumstances within the UK might attain 50,000 per day
By Eileen Greene On Sep 26, 2020
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) stalled many countries during the height of the pandemic. Now, many nations have reopened businesses to stimulate their economies that were negatively impacted by the outbreak.
As many countries lift restrictions and some schools open their classroom courses, health experts warned a second wave could emerge, with expected increases in new COVID-19 cases.
In the UK, health experts said the country could face an exponentially increasing death rate from COVID-19 in just a few weeks unless urgent action is taken to combat the spread of the virus. The country currently has the highest official COVID-19 number in Europe and the fifth largest in the world.
There are more than 406,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the UK, with more than 41,900 deaths.

A second wave of the virus spread
A few days ago, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson said the UK was entering a second wave of the coronavirus as scientists feared the death toll could rise again.
COVID-19 cases are increasing by at least 4,000 cases per day in the UK, according to week-long data. In addition, new findings indicate that hospital admissions double every eight days and the test system is overwhelmed.
UK chief medical officer Chris Whitty and the country's chief scientific adviser Patrick Wallace warned the outbreak could reach up to 50,000 new cases a day by mid-October if the country does not impose restrictions.
The death toll is expected to climb to around 200 a day by mid-November. The current trend continues, the two leading health authorities said during a press conference televised nationwide.
What are they going to do
With the number of new cases rising, Johnson said he was ready to take national measures to curb the spread of COVID-19. Local lockdowns currently affect about 13.5 million people in the country after the government took action in pandemic-hit areas, particularly parts of the North West, Midlands and Yorkshire.
"We are now seeing a second wave. We have seen them in France, in Spain and all over Europe. I fear it was inevitable that we would see them in this country," said Johnson.
"We want to keep schools open – that will happen. And we will try to keep all parts of the economy open as much as we can. I don't think anyone wants to go into a second lockdown." he added.
The UK was strictly locked for the first time in March when cases rose and the death rate rose. In May, restrictions were gradually lifted so that businesses can operate and people can go back to work. From there, the government reminded voters of measures to prevent infection such as proper hand hygiene, social distancing and the wearing of masks.
Earlier this month, Johnson imposed a "six rules" in the country, according to which gatherings should only contain a maximum of six people, regardless of whether they are held indoors or outdoors. Experts also said a two-week lockdown could be imposed as a sort of "breaker" to contain the spread of the virus.
However, Matt Handcock, the country's health minister, said the restrictions will be different this time as many schools and workplaces will remain open.
Meanwhile, Whitty said the challenge is to make sure the cases doubling time doesn't stay at seven to eight days. He also added that the upcoming winter season would help the virus, with more cases expected to be reported.
He added that people may be asked to work from home and cut down on social contacts.
"We have to break unnecessary household connections because this is how this virus is transmitted," Whitty said.
"And this means that social contacts are reduced, regardless of whether they are working. Here, for example, we are very grateful to all the companies that have worked so hard to make their environment COVID-proof to reduce the risk, and also in the social field. " Environments, "he added.
Twitter: Vallance: Epidemic doubles every 7 days. If you continue undiminished through mid-October, you will get 50,000 cases a day. More than 200 people a day would die by mid-November. https://twitter.com/BethRigby/status/1307984585771356162?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1307984585771356162%7Ctwgr%5Eshare222 09-21% 2Funited-Could-be-virus-cases-cases-500-Kingdom-United-Day – Have October% 2F12686968

1.1 All order and delivery transactions of Silikal GmbH (hereinafter: "Silikal") shall be exclusively subject to the following general terms and conditions (hereinafter: "General Terms") and to the provisions of the respective contract.
1.2 Entering into a contract based on these General Terms substantiates the applicability thereof to all other (delivery) transactions with the customer (hereinafter: "Customer") within the scope of a current business relationship, even if Silikal does not make explicit reference thereto in future. This also applies if Customer received knowledge of these General Terms after the first conclusion of a contract between the Parties.
1.3 Agreements deviating from these General Terms, especially conflicting general terms of Customer, shall require Silikal's explicit written consent to become valid and have to be accepted separately by Silikal in writing for every individual contract. Such conditions shall not be binding upon Silikal, even if Silikal fails to explicitly contradict them, or if Silikal, being fully aware of such conditions, delivers to Customer without reservations.
1.4 Silikal shall inform Customer in written form (Sec. 126 b German Civil Code, "Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch", "BGB") about modifications of these General Terms at the latest four (4) weeks before they become valid. Customer's consent is deemed to be given if he does not communicate his rejection in written form (Sec. 126 b German Civil Code, "Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch", "BGB") until the date of the modifications' coming into force. Silikal shall expressly advert Customer to this effect of deemed consent in its information about the modification of these General Terms.
2.1 Offers of Silikal shall not be binding unless expressly indicated or confirmed otherwise by Silikal in written form. Drawings, depictions, dimensions, weights or other performance data shall only be binding if explicitly agreed upon in writing.
2.2 Insofar Customer places an order, this shall be considered a binding offer pursuant to Sec. 145 German Civil Code ("Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch", "BGB"). Customer's order shall comply with Silikal's offer. Unless agreed otherwise in writing, Silikal may accept this offer within a period of four (4) weeks by sending Customer an order confirmation.
2.3 Contracts with Silikal come into existence upon Silikal's acceptance of Customer's order in textform, e.g. email, fax (sec. 126b German Civil Code), in the form of an order confirmation, the latest at Silikal's provision of its performance.
5. the essential contractual parts of Silikal's offer (e.g. price, amount).
2.5 Silikal reserves rights of ownership and copyright with respect to the documents mentioned in 2.1 above.
3.1 Customer shall ensure that Silikal is provided with all necessary cooperation and provision of performance in good time, to the necessary extent, and without charge. If Customer does not, not in time, or not in the agreed manner provide necessary cooperation performance, he solely has to bear the consequences resulting therefrom (e.g. delays, additional expenditures).
4.1 As long as Customer does not fulfill its cooperation and provision duties, a delay in delivery of Silikal is excluded.
4.2 Deliveries shall be effected ex works "Mainhausen" (if the delivery item is an item of sale: "ex works", resp. hereinafter "EXW Mainhausen" according to Incoterms 2010) unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing.
4.3 Following the completion of EXW orders as mentioned above, Customer is required to pick up his goods at the delivery destination pursuant to Sec. 4.2 within five (5) days (Monday through Friday, legal holidays excluded) from receiving notice of completion (delivery date), unless indicated otherwise by Silikal. Upon Pick-up, Customer is obliged to settle any transport and/or all other costs concerning the goods which arose after their completion and provision by Silikal.
4.4 Form, modality and scope of packaging are in the sole discretion of Silikal. If Silikal committed itself, in an individual case, beyond EXW Mainhausen pursuant to Incoterms 2010, to send goods to Customer, the modality of dispatch is in the sole discretion of Silikal.
4.5 Indicated delivery and performance dates are only binding if Silikal declared or confirmed them to be binding in written form (sec. 126b German Civil Code). If an estimated delivery date is overdue by more than 2 (two) weeks, Customer shall be entitled to set Silikal an adequate subsequent period of time for delivery. If Silikal does not deliver within the subsequent period of time, Customer shall be entitled to withdraw from the contract. Withdrawal shall be declared in writing.
The right to withdraw from the contract shall only exist if Silikal is liable for not complying with the subsequent period of time set for delivery, and if it is not reasonable for Customer to adhere to the contract. If Customer chooses compensation for damages in lieu of performance, Silikal´s liability is subject to the limitations as stipulated in provision 9 below.
4.6 For the period of the existence of circumstances outside of the control of Silikal ("Force Majeure"), such as inability to source raw materials and transportation means, stoppages in production, strikes and lock-outs, fire and natural catastrophes, Silikal shall be discharged from its delivery obligation. Delivery deadlines agreed shall be extended by the period of the existence of the circumstances of Force Majeure, but by no longer than six (6) months. If the circumstances of Force Majeure end within this period, Customer shall only have the right to reject the deliveries if it is unreasonable to expect from Customer taking delivery after such lapse of time. If the circumstances of Force Majeure end following the lapse of six (6) months, this shall be regarded as ultimate impediment to performance; Customer shall be entitled to withdraw from the contract (sec. 323 German civil Code). The same applies, if and when it is foreseeable that the circumstances of Force Majeure will be permanent.
4.7 Silikal shall be entitled to effect partial deliveries and services, if (i) the partial delivery is usable for Customer within the intended purpose of the contract, (ii) the delivery of the remaining ordered goods is secured and (iii) no substantial additional expenses occur for Customer hereby (unless Silikal agrees in writing to bear these expenses).
4.8 In case Silikal delivers upon Customer´s request goods to a non-EU country without being provided with a certificate of export or other relevant information concerning the export of the goods, Customer is liable towards Silikal insofar as Silikal is held liable for payment of Value Added Tax (VAT) regarding the respective delivery, unless Silikal is responsible accordingly.
4.9 Silikal is entitled to perform by subcontracting third parties (subcontractors), unless this contradicts Customer's justified interests. Silikal is liable for the performance of subcontractors to the same extent as it is liable for its own actions.
5.1 Prices are ex works (that is, if the delivery item is an item of sale: "ex works", resp. hereinafter "EXW Mainhausen" according to Incoterms 2010) and do not include freight, customs, import duties, ancillary levies; they are net prices plus statutory value added tax (VAT).
5.2 In case of shipment of the goods to a non-EU country, Customer shall, on its own initiative, send Silikal as proof of shipment an export certificate in written form within 5 (five) business days after receiving the goods in the non-EU country. In case of not providing the export certificate or any other relevant information concerning the shipment of the goods, Customer is liable pursuant to 4.8 above.
5.3 In the event that during the period between conclusion of the contract and delivery cost decreases or cost increases occur, unforeseen and uninfluencable by Silikal, especially due to changes in the raw material prices by more than 10 % (ten percent), Silikal and Customer are entitled to request of the respective other party an adjustment of the agreed prices by renegotiation. The validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected by such renegotiations. If no agreement can be reached by the renegotiations, both Silikal and Customer are entitled to withdraw from the contract.
5.4 Invoices of Silikal are due immediately upon receipt and shall be paid without deductions and within ten (10) days to the account indicated on the invoice, unless other terms of payment are agreed between the parties in writing or indicated on Silikal's invoice. They are to be paid in EUR. After a potential change of the EURO denominated monetary claims to another currency, it may turn out that this other currency bears more or less purchasing power than the EURO currency. In such case, each party shall be entitled to demand from the other party that the amount of the contractual claims be renegotiated in good faith with the aim of compensating such loss or gain of purchasing power. Timeliness of payment shall be determined by the date the whole amount is credited to one of Silikal's business accounts. In the event of default in payment, Silikal is entitled to charge default interest in the amount of nine (9) percentage points above the base interest rate.
5.5 If Customer deducts a cash discount from its payment which is unjustified due to non-execution of a payment within a set payment period, absence of a complaint by Silikal does not constitute a tacit acknowledgement of the deducted cash discount. Until expiration of the limitation period, Silikal is entitled to demand payment of the partial amount not paid by Customer due to the cash discount or to settle this partial amount with outstanding claims of other orders of Customer resp. to book it on Customer's receivables account.
5.6 If Customer delays on payment with respect to carried out deliveries Silikal is, at its option, entitled to either withhold not yet carried out deliveries until Customer has performed advance payment accordingly, or to withdraw from the contract about the not yet carried out deliveries.
5.7 For each debit balance not realized or returned unpaid, Customer shall, to the extent he is liable for the event which triggered the costs, reimburse Silikal the costs incurred, including costs for the collection of the outstanding payments.
5.8 Checks are only accepted on account of performance and the debt shall only be cleared upon receipt of full payment. Silikal shall assume no liability for correct and timely presentation and protesting with regard to the negotiated check. Discount charges (2 % above the discount rate charged by Silikal´s bank, minimum € 50.-), and all expenditure and costs in connection with the honoring of check amounts shall be borne by Customer.
5.9 Any complaints against the level of Silikal's remuneration charged to Customer shall be addressed to Silikal immediately after receipt of invoice. Complaints have to reach Silikal within eight (8) weeks after receipt of invoice. Omission of timely complaints is deemed as approval of the amount of the invoice. Customer's legal claims concerning complaints after expiration of the deadline remain unaffected.
5.10 If, after the conclusion of a contract, there are reasonable doubts as to the solvency or credit standing of Customer or, if such circumstances are prevailing at the conclusion of the contract but become known at a later date, Silikal shall be entitled to demand advance payment or the posting of collateral prior to delivery, as well as to revoke payment terms granted and render all credited receivables immediately due for payment.
5.11 Despite possible conflicting or missing determinations of Customer, Silikal shall be entitled to initially offset payments against older debts of Customer and shall notify Customer of the nature of any offset. If costs and interest have already accrued, Silikal shall be entitled to offset payments against these costs first, then against interest and finally against the principal debt.
6.1 The risk of accidental loss of goods shall pass over to Customer in all cases (regardless of any INCOTERMS clause Silikal and Customer have agreed to) as soon as the consignment is handed over to the third party effecting the transport or has left Silikal´s warehouse for dispatch purposes.
6.2 Immediately after receiving the delivery, Customer shall examine its external condition, notify any transport damages to carrier, secure relevant evidence and immediately inform Silikal and the carrier by phone and in text form (Sec. 126b BGB). In case of a delivery to a deviating debtor's address, Customer shall ensure that the examination for any transport damage is carried out in accordance with this section 6.
6.3 If dispatch cannot be carried out within the agreed delivery period for reasons for which Silikal is not responsible, the risk of accidental loss of the goods shall pass over to the Customer upon lapse of the delivery date stipulated in section 4.3.
7.1 Obvious defects and defects noticeable upon proper inspection of the delivery including any transport damages (see section 6.2) shall be notified by Customer in written form (sec. 126 b German Civil Code) immediately upon receipt of the goods. Defects that could not be discovered within this period, even upon proper inspection, shall be notified to Silikal immediately upon their discovery. The same applies to complaints because of wrong deliveries and discrepancies in quantities. If the period for notification is not observed, warranty claims shall be excluded.
7.2 Customer shall, prior to processing the delivered goods, be obliged to inspect them for their suitability for the purposes of use, even if samples of goods have been supplied before.
7.3 Minor discrepancies in dimensions and formats shall not entitle Customer to raise complaints for defects. Potential discrepancies listed in the relevant quality guidelines known to Customer are all in consistency with the contract.
7.4 Warranty rights may only be raised in respect of goods that are available for inspection or return. Without prior mutual agreement in written form (sec. 126 b German Civil Code) products may not be returned to Silikal.
Taking back goods by Silikal does in no case constitute an acknowledgement that the goods taken back are defective.
7.5 For defects notified in time pursuant to 7.1, Silikal warrants delivery of new goods free from defects. In case the delivery of new goods by Silikal turns out to be unsuccessful, Customer shall, at its option, be entitled to reduce the price or to withdraw from the contract. There are no claims for compensatory damages, except as provided for in section 9 below.
7.6 The warranty obligation shall expire if the goods delivered are changed, processed or improperly handled. Improper handling also includes an improper storage of the goods. Customer shall especially store goods according to Silikal's guidelines for the storage of goods from the current version of the technical documentation (MMA) (www.silikal.com). Proper storage must be documented by the Customer in a suitable manner.
7.7 Silikal is not liable for such products Customer provides Silikal with for the purpose of processing or finishing. With respect to such goods there shall be no warranty rights for Customer, unless the defect is due to the processing or finishing by Silikal.
7.8 The warranty statute of limitations amounts to 12 (twelve) months from transfer of risk, unless another statutory term is prescribed by law or unless the compulsory provisions of the purchase of consumer goods (Sec. 478, 479 German Civil Code) apply. The aforementioned does not apply in cases Silikal is liable for culpable violation of life, limb or health, and in cases Silikal is liable for claims for damage based on intent or gross negligence, including intent or gross negligence of Silikal's representatives or vicarious agents.
8.1 Until such time as all receivables from the business relationship with Customer have been paid, Silikal shall retain title (ownership) to the purchased goods. To the extent Silikal agrees with Customer on payment of the purchasing price on the basis of check procedure, the retention of title shall also extend to the encashment as well as any claims against Customer in connection with a potential liability of Silikal towards respective third parties holding rights in such bills and does not expire with the receipt of money from such check procedure.
8.2 Processing or reshaping of delivered goods shall exclusively be made under maintenance of the security claims of Silikal. The processed product shall secure at its full value the receivables mentioned above. To the extent that the goods delivered are being processed with other goods not owned by Silikal, Silikal shall acquire co-ownership in the new product in the proportion of the value of the goods delivered by Silikal to the other goods processed not owned by Silikal at the time of processing. In addition, to the new product generated by procession, the same applies as to the goods delivered under retention of title by Silikal.
To the extent that the goods under retention of title are inseparably assembled or mixed with goods of other suppliers, Silikal shall acquire co-ownership in the new product in the proportion of the value of the goods under retention of title (invoice amount plus value added tax) to the other goods they have been assembled or mixed with at the time of assembly or mixture.
If the assembly or mixture is made in such a way that the goods of Silikal under retention of title become essential parts of a new product, Silikal shall acquire co-ownership in the new product in the aforesaid proportion.
Customer shall store the respective share of co-ownership of Silikal free of charge. In the case no acquisition of ownership in the sense of this section commences, Customer already now assigns its future ownership or co-ownership in the new product in aforesaid proportion to Silikal by way of security. Silikal already now approves this assignment.
8.3 Customer shall be entitled to sell the goods of Silikal in the ordinary course of business. The receivables of Customer from selling or other receivables substituting the goods shall already now be assigned to Silikal by way of security in their full amount with all ancillary rights irrespective whether the goods of Silikal have been delivered with or without processing, reshaping, assembling or mixing and whether Silikal´s goods have been processed, reshaped, assembled or mixed with goods of other third party suppliers; Silikal already now approves this assignment. If another supplier is entitled to lawfully claim extended retention of title concerning receivables of Customer, Customer shall assign to Silikal the receivables concerned to the extent of the retention of title of Silikal to the sold goods. Silikal already now approves this assignment.
8.4 If the receivables of Customer from selling the goods of Silikal under retention of title or of goods in which Silikal holds co-ownership are put in a current account Customer already now shall assign to Silikal its payment claim in the amount of the respectively acknowledged balance covering the amount of the claims of Silikal. Silikal already now approves this assignment.
8.5 Until canceled, Customer is entitled to collect the assigned claims. Silikal's right to collect the claims itself remains unaffected therof. Out of legitimate reason, like defaults of payment or cessation of payment of Customer, filing for initiation of insolvency proceedings regarding the assets of Customer, or other jeopardy to the satisfaction of the claims of Silikal against Customer, the authorization of the Customer to collect the receivables may be canceled by Silikal. Until then, Silikal commits itself not to collect the claim itself. In this case the Customer shall be obliged, among others, to immediately label the reserved goods as property of Silikal in appropriate manner recognizable for each third party.
Customer shall provide Silikal with a detailed list of any reserved goods also to the extent that they are processed as well as a list of assigned receivables with naming of the third party debtors. Irrespective thereof, representatives of Silikal shall be entitled to conduct appropriate examinations at any time during normal business hours at the Customer and inspect the documents necessary in this connection.
8.6 Customer bears the risk for the goods delivered by Silikal. He shall be obliged to keep the goods diligently in custody and sufficiently insure them against usual risks, like damage, loss, theft, fire etc. to usual terms and common extent. Customer herewith assigns to Silikal any claim against the insurer for the case of damages namely a first ranking partial amount corresponding to the purchasing price of goods delivered under retention of title; Silikal already now approves this assignment. To the extent that the insurer does not cover the total damage, Silikal may not be referred to a proportionate compensation.
8.7 Pledging or transfer of title for security purposes are excluded. Customer has to inform Silikal without delay of any event concerning the title of Silikal and be obliged to use best efforts in particular to make all legal declarations towards Silikal or a third party in order to render the agreed retention of title and the pre-assignment effective. Customer shall be liable for all cost of an intervention in court and / or out of court.
8.8 Silikal is obliged to release collaterals in their dutiful discretion, if and to the extent that the estimated value of the collateral exceeds the total receivables of Silikal to be secured respectively, permanently by 50 % (fifty percent).
9.1 Silikal shall be liable under statutory regulations insofar as Customer raises claims based on intent or gross negligence, including intent or gross negligence of Silikal's representatives or vicarious agents.
9.2 To the extent Silikal is accused of the slightly negligent breach of an essential contractual obligation the fulfilment of which enables the proper execution of this agreement at all, and the violation of which puts the achievement of the contractual purpose at risk, and the observance of which Customer may regularly rely on, liability for damages is limited to the foreseeable and typically occurring damage.
9.3 Liability for culpable violation of life, limb or health and Silikal's liability according to other mandatory binding provisions, especially according to the German Product Liability Act, shall not be affected thereby.
9.4 Customer shall, in the internal relationship to Silikal, take the sole risk as (co-)producer in accordance with the German Product Liability Act, insofar as the cause of damage falls within his domain of responsibility and organization, and if he, in his external relationship to the claimant, is liable as producer. Customer shall in the abovementioned cases indemnify Silikal explicitly from any third party claims and shall, when necessary, provide security insofar as his liability in the internal relationship is concerned.
The provision in 9.4 does not apply insofar as, in cases Customer provided Silikal with goods or products for the purpose of processing or finishing, the cause of damage is due to the processing or finishing by Silikal, not even in cases Silikal does not appear as producer towards third parties.
9.5 Insofar as Silikal's liability for damages is restricted, this also applies to the personal liability for damages of Silikal's staff, employees, personnel, representatives and vicarious agents.
9.6 Unless stipulated otherwise above, Silikal's liability shall be excluded.
In the event that during the period between conclusion of the contract and delivery it turns out, unforeseeable to Silikal, especially at the time of the conclusion of the contract, that Silikal cannot be provided in sufficient amount with a raw material essential for Silikal´s fulfillment of the contract, and such non-availability is not contemporary and cannot be overcome by reasonable expenses, Silikal is entitled to withdraw from the contract with Customer. This does not apply if Silikal is liable for such non-availability. Silikal will inform Customer about the non-availability without delay.
11.1 To the extent that nothing deviating arises from a separate confidentiality agreement between the parties, parties undertake to keep confidentiality pursuant to this section 11.
Parties shall mutually undertake to maintain confidentiality about all business and company secrets and about all information designated as confidential ("confidential information") that came to their knowledge in the context of performing this agreement or which the Parties exchange and make available for each other. As confidential information, the parties in particular understand all orders and all commercial and technical information and documents related therewith, illustrations, drawings, calculations, quality directives, samples and similar objects, knowhow, business relations, business strategies, business plans, financial planning, personnel matters. Information publicly known at the time of transmission, or later becoming publicly known not resulting from a wrongdoing of the party concerned, is not deemed as confidential. The same applies if an information, without a direct or indirect infringement of the concerned Party's duty to maintain confidentiality, becomes known to a third party other than by the party concerned or its affiliates.
A reproduction and dissemination of such secret information shall only be allowed within the scope of operational requirements. It may only be disclosed or made accessible to third parties upon prior express and written consent.
11.2 The aforesaid obligation to keep confidential shall survive the termination of the supply relationship, as long as the confidential information has not become common knowledge.
12.1 During the contract term, Customer shall refrain from hiring Silikal's employees or other personnel who are involved in the fulfillment of the respective contract, unless the employee or other personnel has already resigned from Silikal six months before, or Silikal agreed in advance in written form. The aforementioned restraint also does not apply if the hiring of the employee or other personnel resulted from the initiative of Silikal's employee or other personnel.
12.2 During the contract term, customer shall refrain from directly or indirectly soliciting Silikal's employees or other personnel who are involved in the fulfillment of the respective contract.
12.3 Both preceding paragraphs shall continue to be effective for one (1) year after the end of the contract term, starting with the end of the contract term.
12.4 Sections 12.1 and 12.2 above concerning the non-compete and non-solicitation provision shall also apply to companies associated with Customer.
12.5 Customer shall demonstrate and prove that the employment of a former employee or other personnel of Silikal is not based on an infringement of this non-employment/non-solicitation provision.
13.1 Customer's right to offset is excluded. This does not apply insofar as the counterclaim is based on a violation of a main obligation of Silikal pursuant to sec. 320 German Civil Code, or the counterclaim is assessed in a legally binding judgment, or is undisputed.
13.2 Unless stipulated otherwise in mandatory law, Silikal may set off all its claims against Customer's claims. This also applies if Customer used a cash discount in case of a delayed payment.
13.3 Customer shall have a right of retention only insofar as its counterclaim is connected with or arising from the same transaction and is assessed in a legally binding judgment, or is undisputed. Apart from that, Customer shall not have a right of retention.
14.1 This agreement shall precede all prior agreements concerning its object, regardless of whether they were agreed in writing or verbally. No subsidiary verbal agreements exist.
14.2 Any amendments, addendums and the annulment of this agreement shall be in writing in order to be effective. This also applies for amendments of this written form clause. The aforementioned requirement of written form shall not apply to oral agreements made after the conclusion of this contract. Also, in this case parties agree on the necessity of a written confirmation concerning the content of the oral agreement.
14.3 Unless stipulated otherwise in these General Terms, to fulfill the written form requirement, text form pursuant to sec. 126 b German Civil Code, e.g. e-mail, fax, is sufficient.
15.1 All contractual and non-contractual relationships between Silikal and Customer shall be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany. The application of the consistent United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) shall be excluded.
15.2 All disputes arising in connection with this contract or its validity shall be finally settled in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the German Institution of Arbitration (DIS) without recourse to the ordinary courts of law. The place of arbitration is Munich. The language of arbitral proceedings is English; documents could be provided in English language. The number of arbitrator is one.
16.1 Should particular provisions of these General Terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected hereby. This does not apply if an adherence to the agreement would present an unreasonable hardship to a contracting party.
16.2 Customer may only assign rights and obligations arising from the agreement after prior written consent by Silikal. Silikal shall only refuse consent for important reason. Customer shall immediately inform Silikal if he plans to assign rights and obligations arising from the agreement with Silikal.
16.4 These General Terms shall be concluded in both German and English language. In case of any discrepancies between the German and English version, the German version shall prevail.

Members of the Anesthesia team at Mayo Clinic Health System in Red Wing include, left to right, Josh Cochrane, Justin Smith and Ryan Sportel, certified registered nurse anesthetists; Shelly Barker, M.D.; and Mike Sawyer, certified registered nurse anesthetist.
Chris Farley. Heath Ledger. Sigmund Freud. Prince. You likely recognize the names of these famous people, but you might not know what they have in common. They all died from an opioid overdose.
Opioids are narcotics derived from poppy seeds, the most recognizable of which include morphine, OxyContin, Percocet, Vicodin, fentanyl and the illicit drug heroin.
According to Ryan Sportel and Mike Sawyer, certified registered nurse anesthetists at Mayo Clinic Health System in Red Wing, opioid use can be traced as far back as the ancient Egyptians, who harvested opium to provide pain relief. Over thousands of years, various iterations of opioids have been used in medicine, but recent years have ushered in an unprecedented number of prescriptions for this powerful drug.
The number of opioid prescriptions given and the number of related deaths have quadrupled since 1999 according to studies by John Hopkins University and The University of California San Francisco Medical Center. These studies also found that opioid use is connected to surgery. Roughly half of all surgical patients experience pain after surgery, and 24 percent of those patients can't find adequate pain relief. There are 100 million inpatient and outpatient surgeries and procedures in the U.S. every year, and 5.9 to 6.5 percent of patients persistently use opioids after major and minor procedures, respectively.
To put opioid use into perspective, the U.S. comprises 4.4 percent of the world's population, yet consumes 80 percent of the world's opioid supply, according to the universities' studies. As many as 2 million Americans have a prescription opioid use disorder, which is the medical term for addiction.
Although providers agree that opioids are occasionally required for the recovery process, they believe opioids should only be used as a last resort.
"Opioids do work, for a limited period of time, but we only use them for highly acute medical needs," says Sportel.
If opioids do the trick, then what's the harm in using them? Although opioids can effectively treat pain for the short term, aside from being highly addictive, they eventually can make the pain worse by stimulating nerve cells — a phenomenon called hyperalgesia, in which people become more sensitive to pain after receiving opioids.
Sawyer says the body begins building up a tolerance to opioids the moment they enter the system, which immediately opens the door to tolerance and, possibly, addiction. "Opioids can eventually lead to death, as they interfere with brain signals that tell the body to breathe, which results in respiratory failure," he says.
Fortunately, health care providers such as Dr. Raju, Sawyer, Sportel and the rest of the anesthesia team in Red Wing have paid attention to the dangerous opioid trends and are responding with safe, effective, opioid-free pain management alternatives rooted in best- practice techniques.
"We're trying to do surgeries without any opioids at all," says Sportel. Sawyer adds, "It's a patient-based decision, and we have many options now, including peripheral nerve blocks. We incorporate patients into our process. Before surgery, we give them the evidence-based information so they can be informed consumers. We see a handful of patients per year who have addiction histories, and are concerned about opioids." Both providers say they communicate the unique needs of each patient to the surgeon preoperative, and that a team of surgical nurse planners also regularly pass along any patient concerns.
It's this team model that allows all the providers to embrace new and effective techniques and collaborate quickly to get patients the best, individualized care possible.
Sawyer says they have had great success with nerve blocks, where anesthetists deposit local anesthetics directly next to the nerves, which blocks the brain from feeling pain.
Managing pain after surgery is a justifiable concern. Sportel says there are two excellent options for postsurgical pain management. The first is the long-acting anesthetic Exparel, which blocks pain for 48 to 72 hours. The second is a device known as a pain pump. When patients opt for a pain pump, a catheter may be placed at the affected nerve site during surgery. Patients can then take the device home for anywhere from three to six days and choose to pump medication into the painful area as needed.
Every patient is different in his or her pain management needs and knowledge about opioids, but JoLyn Williams, a resident of Cannon Falls, Minnesota, opted for opioid-free anesthesia during an adjustment to her intrauterine device last November at Mayo Clinic Health System in Red Wing, where she works as a registered nurse.
Williams says the nerve-blocking medication was placed deep enough that she had to be put under for the injections themselves, which were beneath muscle tissue, well into both sides of her abdomen. After the nerve blocks were administered, she woke up and waited for the surgery to adjust her IUD.
Williams says she had no side effects from her opioid-free anesthesia, and took Tylenol and ibuprofen to manage pain for the first two or three days after surgery. Between her essentially pain-free procedure and well-managed recovery, she says she would certainly recommend opioid-free treatment to others.
Dr. Raju says nerve blocks result in higher patient satisfaction, help to suppress the opioid epidemic and, in general, are a much better approach to managing patients' pain. "This method is the newest treatment plan in pain management and follows the trajectory of where pain management is headed," he says.

Do not apply to or near the face of infants or children. We recommend a maximum dilution of 4% for topical applications.
To help with occasional digestive upset, add Rosemary 1,8-Cineole Organic to your favorite carrier oil and rub in a clockwise fashion over the abdomen. Before a big test in school (for teens and adult students) make an inhaler with equal part Rosemary 1,8-Cineole Organic and Lemon. Sniff the inhaler frequently while studying; then just before the test, sniff again several times. When combined with Black Pepper, Rosemary 1,8-Cineole Organic can also increase skin circulation which can be useful in warming massage blends.
Oil scent is exactly as described, powerful which I like, not wimpy.
I love this oil. I use it to mix with my shampoo to help my hair grow more after losing my hair from chemo.
This is a great oil. I like to use rosemary in my shampoo and a diy hair serum I make. It is very therapeutic and calming for the scalp. Works well in conjunction with peppermint oil.
Love this in my hair serums! Good stuff!
I know Rosemary has lots of benefits, which I am looking forward to exploring. I will say though, it only took one sniff for my breathing passages to feel more clear and make my mind more alert.

Home Gossip News Inmate rearrested after he refused to leave jail after release
Inmate rearrested after he refused to leave jail after release
An Arizona man arrested on alleged possession of meth apparently liked the jail in Maricopa County so much that he didn't want to leave.
David Spurlock, 29, was released on Wednesday for the drug charges, but caused trouble when he refused to vacate the premises.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio said that officers forcibly escorted Spurlock away from the lock-up.
Police said when Spurlock was finally out of the jail, he ran to a marked semi-truck belonging to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office and unsuccessfully attempted to start it up, according to the Associated Press.
"Maybe he liked the food so much, he thought he would take a truck load of my vegetarian meals with him," Arpaio said.
Officials said Spurlock told them he planned to sell the truck.
Spurlock was arrested and is back in jail on a burglary charge and is being held without bond.

Q: How to put analytics code in one place in mobile platform? Right now when I am using any analytics to track events in my app I add small pieces of code on action of button or after viewing one screen. Due to this my analytics logic or codes have spread in multiple places which make hard to make any changes.
All I do is put some comment before analytics code. So I was thinking if there is any way put all my analytics codes and logics to one place rather then multiple places in app.
PS:- iOS specific solution will be more helpful for me.

A: Simply create a helper class (something like AnalyticsUtil.java) which will contain the actual analytics calls inside some convenience methods. Now you can just call these methods in places you need to record analytics data.
This approach has the additional benefit that you can always plug in multiple analytics sources in the helper class without needing to change the rest of the project.

Brussels – China and Russia: An Eastern Partnership in the Making? with Michal Makocki, Nicu Popescu [Michal Makocki and Nicu Popescu]
On the surface, Sino–Russian cooperation have been intensifying in recent years. What provides the impetus for these ties and can they endure? We'll look at what's new in this relationship between China and Russia and address areas of convergence and divergence between Moscow and Beijing, the asymmetries in interests and resources, and their wider implications for Russia's policy in Asia. What can we expect from Moscow's Asia strategy in the future? What is their systemic impact? And what does this mean for the EU and policy-makers in Europe?
We invite Michal Makocki, Senior Associate Analyst at EUISS and Nicu Popescu, Senior Analyst at EUISS to discuss.

Article Figures & Data
Expression of CAMKK2 in LKB1-deficient tumor cells, and AMPK activation and cell-cycle arrest in G361 melanoma cells. A, extracts of G361, A549 and HeLa cells were immunoprecipitated with anti-CAMKK2 antibody or control immunoglobulin (IgG), and the precipitates analyzed by Western blotting using the same anti-CAMKK2 antibody. B, AMPK activity in immunoprecipitates from G361 cells treated with 0.3 μmol/L A23187 for 20 hours; results are mean ± SD, n = 2. C, Western blotting using anti-pT172, anti-AMPK-α and anti-actin antibodies in extracts of G361 cells treated with A23187 as in B. D, G361 cells were treated with vehicle (DMSO) or A23187 (0.3 μmol/L) for 20 hours with (where indicated) nocodazole (70 ng/ml) added for a further 18 hours. The cells were then fixed, stained with propidium iodide, and DNA content analyzed by flow cytometry. Bars show the percentages of cells with G1, S, and G2–M phase DNA content (mean ± SD, n = 3); significant differences from DMSO control (with nocodazole) by two-way ANOVA are shown. ****, P < 0.0001. Similar results were obtained in three identical experiments.
Effect of A23187 on AMPK activation and cell-cycle arrest in A549, HeLa, and G361 cells. A, A549 cells were treated with the indicated concentration of A23187 or vehicle (DMSO) for 20 hours with (where indicated) nocodazole (70 ng/ml) added for a further 18 hours. The cells were then fixed, stained with propidium iodide, and DNA content analyzed by flow cytometry. Bars show the percentages of cells with G1, S, and G2–M phase DNA content (mean ± SD, n = 3); significant differences in the % of cells in the same cell-cycle phase compared with DMSO control by two-way ANOVA are shown: **, P < 0.01; ****, P < 0.0001. Similar results were obtained in three identical experiments. B, AMPK activity measured in immunoprecipitates (top), percentage of cells in G1 phase (middle; both mean ± SEM; n = 3), and Thr172 phosphorylation (bottom) in A549 cells treated with various concentrations of A23187 for 20 hours. C, as in B, but in HeLa cells. D, as in B, but in G361 cells (note different scale on x-axis). E, phosphorylation of AMPK (Thr172), ACC (Ser79), and Raptor (Ser792) in A549 cells incubated as in B. F, as in E, but in HeLa cells incubated as in C. G, as in E, but in G361 cells incubated as in D.
Effect of expression of constitutively active CAMKK2 on AMPK activation and the cell cycle in G361 cells. A, cells were left untransfected, or were transfected with DNAs encoding GFP fused to full-length (1-588, GFP-WT), or truncated (1-471, GFP-CA) CAMKK2. After 36 hours, AMPK activity was measured in immunoprecipitates; significant differences by one-way ANOVA compared with untransfected control (***, P < 0.001) or GFP-WT (††, P < 0.01) are shown. B, analysis by Western blotting of extracts of untransfected cells and cells transfected with DNAs encoding GFP-WT or GFP-CA. Extracts were made after 36 hours and antibodies used were anti-GFP (top), anti-pT172, anti-AMPK-α, or anti-actin. Results show samples from duplicate cell incubations: similar results were obtained in three independent experiments. C, AMPK activity in immunoprecipitates from cells 36 hours after transfection with DNAs encoding GFP-WT or GFP-CA or untransfected controls. Cells were then incubated with or without 10 μmol/L A23187 for 1 hour; results are mean ± SD (n = 2); significant effects by two-way ANOVA compared with vehicle controls; **, P < 0.01, or untransfected controls (††††, P < 0.0001; ††, P < 0.01) are shown. D, analysis by Western blotting of extracts of the same cells as shown in C. E, percentage of cells in G1, S, or G2–M for cells transfected with DNAs encoding GFP, GFP-WT, or GFP-CA (mean ± SD, n = 3). After 36 hours, cells were treated with nocodazole (70 ng/mL) and 18 hours later were fixed, stained with propidium iodide, and the DNA content analyzed by flow cytometry. The flow cytometer was set-up to analyze only cells expressing GFP. Significant differences between the percentage of that cell-cycle phase compared with GFP alone (****, P < 0.0001) or between GFP-WT and GFP-CA (††††, P < 0.0001) are shown (two-way ANOVA). Similar results were obtained in three identical experiments. F, as in E, except that cells were transfected with DNAs encoding GFP, GFP-CA, or GFP-LKB1 plus STRADA and CAB39. Similar results were obtained in two identical experiments.
Cell-cycle arrest and AMPK activation in G361 cells requires the kinase activity of CaMKKβ. A, percentage of cells in G1, S, or G2–M for cells transfected with DNAs encoding GFP, GFP-CA, or GFP-KI (mean ± SD, n = 3). After 36 hours, cells were treated with nocodazole (70 ng/mL) and 18 hours later were fixed, stained with propidium iodide, and the DNA content analyzed by flow cytometry. The cytometer was set-up to analyze only cells expressing GFP. Significant differences by two-way ANOVA compared with values for the same cell-cycle phase with GFP alone (*, P < 0.05; ****, P < 0.001) or between GFP-CA and GFP-KI (††, P < 0.01; ††††, P < 0.0001) are shown. Similar results were obtained in two identical experiments. B, AMPK activity measured in immunoprecipitates from untransfected cells or cells transfected with DNAs encoding GFP, GFP-CA, or GFP-KI. Results are mean ± SD (n = 2); significant differences compared with untransfected cells are shown: ***, P < 0.001 (one-way ANOVA). C, analysis by Western blotting of extracts of the cells shown in B (n = 2).
Cell-cycle arrest induced by A23187, or expression of constitutively active CAMKK2, in G361 cells is AMPK-dependent. A, G361 cells stably expressing a kinase-inactive (D157A) mutant of AMPK-α2 (DN), or control G361 cells (WT), were treated with A23187 (0.3 μmol/L, 24 hours) and duplicate cell lysates analyzed by Western blotting using the indicated antibodies. B, AMPK activity was assessed in immunoprecipitates made with pan-α antibody. Significant differences by two-way ANOVA are indicated (****, P < 0.0001). C, Cells treated with A23187 (0.3 μmol/L) for 24 hours and then nocodazole (70 ng/mL) for 24 hours were fixed, stained with propidium iodide, and the proportions of cells in G1, S, and G2 assessed by flow cytometry. Significant differences by two-way ANOVA from controls without A23187: ***, P < 0.001; ****, P < 0.0001; significant differences between the same treatments in WT and DN cells: ††††, P < 0.0001. D, cell-cycle arrest by transient expression of wild-type or constitutively active CAMKK2 (GFP-WT or GFP-CA) is reduced in DN cells. DNAs encoding GFP-WT, GFP-CA, or GFP alone (control) was transfected into G361 cells for 24 hours, and the cells then treated with nocodazole for a further 24 hours; cell-cycle analysis was then performed only on transfected cells, that is, those expressing GFP. Significant differences by two-way ANOVA from GFP controls: **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001; ****, P < 0.0001; significant differences between the same treatments in WT and DN cells: †, P < 0.05; ††, P < 0.01; ††††, P < 0.0001. E, same data as in C, but analyzing G1:G2 ratio; statistical tests as in C. F, same data as in D, but analyzing G1:G2 ratio; statistical tests as in D.
Cell-cycle arrest by A23187 in G361 cells is AMPK-dependent. A, expression and phosphorylation of proteins in wild-type (WT) and α1/α2 double knockout (DKO) cells derived from G361 cells using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. Phosphorylation of AMPK, ACC, and Raptor, and expression of AMPK-α1, -α2, ACC, Raptor, TP53, CDKN1A, and CDKN1B, was assessed in cells treated with and without 0.3 μmol/L A23187 for 24 hours. B, AMPK activity in WT and DKO cells treated with and without 0.3 μmol/L A23187 for 24 hours. Significant differences between A23187- and vehicle-treated samples, determined by two-way ANOVA, are indicated: ****, P < 0.0001. C, cell-cycle analysis in cells treated with 0.3 μmol/L A23187 for 24 hours, then with nocodazole for a further 24 hours. The proportion of cells in each cell-cycle phase was determined by flow cytometry of cells stained with propidium iodide. Significant differences in each cell-cycle phase between A23187- and vehicle-treated samples, determined by two-way ANOVA, are indicated: **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001; ****, P < 0.0001. D, results from the experiment shown in C but expressed as ratios of G1:G2 phases. Significant differences between A23187- and vehicle-treated samples, determined by two-way ANOVA, are indicated: P < 0.05. E, cell-cycle analysis in WT or DKO cells transfected with DNA encoding GFP or GFP-CA for 24 hours, and then with nocodazole for 24 hours. Significant differences in each cell-cycle phase between GFP and GFP-CA–transfected samples (**, P < 0.01; ****, P < 0.0001), and between WT and DKO samples (†, P < 0.05; ††, P < 0.01) are indicated. F, same data as in E, but analyzing G1:G2 ratios. Significant differences between GFP and GFP-CA–transfected samples (***, P < 0.001), and between WT and DKO samples (†, P < 0.05) are indicated.
AMPK activation in G361 cells induces increased expression of CDKN1A but not CDKN1B, and cell-cycle arrest. G361 cells were transiently transfected with DNAs encoding GFP, GFP-LKB1, or GFP-CA. A, distribution of CDKN1A expression using anti-CDKN1A antibody in untransfected cells (UNT) and in cells expressing GFP, GFP-LKB1 or GFP- CA. B, Ratios of G1:G2 phases in cells not expressing GFP (open bars), or in cells from the same dish expressing GFP, GFP-LKB1, or GFP-CA (hatched bars); significant differences by two-way ANOVA from controls expressing GFP alone are shown: ****, P < 0.0001 (n = 4). C, expression of CDKN1A by flow cytometry in the same cells analyzed as in B; significant differences by two-way ANOVA from controls expressing GFP alone are shown: ****, P < 0.0001 (n = 4). D, distribution of CDKN1B expression using anti-CDKN1B antibody in untransfected cells (UNT) and in cells expressing GFP, GFP-LKB1 or GFP-CA; the grayscale coding is as in Fig. 1A and there are no significant differences. E, Ratios of G1:G2 phases in untransfected cells (open bars), or in cells from the same dish expressing GFP, GFP-LKB1, or GFP-CA (hatched bars); significant differences by two-way ANOVA from controls expressing GFP alone are shown: *, P < 0.05; ***, P < 0.001 (n = 4). F, expression of CDKN1B by flow cytometry in the same cells analyzed in E; there were no significant differences (n = 4).
Visual overview - Cellular stresses that increase AMP:ATP and AMP:ATP ratios activate AMPK in normal cells by promoting its phosphorylation by LKB1. This triggers inhibition of cell growth by phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), Raptor and other targets, and inhibition of the cell cycle by up-regulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, CDKN1A. This mechanism fails, due to the lack of sufficient upstream kinase activity, in tumor cells that have lost the tumor suppressor LKB1. However, it can be restored by increasing cell Ca2+ to activate the alternate Ca2+-dependent upstream kinase, CAMKK2.
