IBO: Do a Larger Share of Students Attending the City's Specialized High Schools Live in Neighborhoods With Higher Median Incomes than Those Attending the City's Other High Schools?
Students in the specialized high schools came from census tracts where the median household income averaged $62,457 compared with $46,392 for students in other high schools. (All dollar amounts are reported in 2012 dollars).
If we rank the census tracts by their median income and then divide the tracts into equal fifths (quintiles), we observe large differences between the share of students in specialized high schools and other high schools from each quintile.

New numbers show just how few minority students get into NYC's top, specialized high schools
Students from families living in neighborhoods within the South Bronx and central Brooklyn were least likely to attend the famed schools, in a similar pattern to last year, the data show.
An analysis of city Education Department data revealed just seven of roughly 19,875 students from Bronx District 7 landed seats in the elite public schools in 2018.
That's just .035% of students in the South Bronx district — and the smallest percentage of any of the city's 32 school districts.
Quinnipiac University Poll Finds; Voters Say Scrap Elite School Test
Great news for SHSAT reform advocates:
With support from white, black and Hispanic voters, 57 percent of all New York City voters say other factors should be considered in deciding admission to elite public high schools, while 36 percent say keep the present system which relies on a single test to decide admission.
Support for the "other factors" option is 50 – 43 percent among white voters, 63 – 29 percent among black voters and 73 – 23 percent among Hispanic voters.

Roots of church brought to life in diary
By Anglican Journal on September 1, 2000
THIS BOOK is a pleasant surprise. I didn't think we Canadian Anglicans could merit such attention in this age when it is popular to attack the dedicated ministries of our earlier generations.
The well-researched introduction by the editor and Mary Kennear supplies an invaluable historical perspective on church work in western Canada. These pages alone justify the purchase of this volume: I have not read such scholarship since the days of one of our forgotten "saints," historian T.C.B. Boon (The Anglican Church from the Bay to the Rockies.)
[pullquote] Monica Storrs and her colleagues were among a group of dedicated Englishwomen who enlisted for the work of the Lord in strange, far-off lands such as Canada. We have reaped the benefits of their calling and devoted service. Her personality shines through the pages of her diaries.
The work of Companions of Peace was set in a challenging period of Canadian frontier days. The daily routines, inconveniences, tribulations, and social commentaries of her time in the Peace River country in the days between two world wars are an invaluable source of social history. Frontier life was fraught with incredible challenges and hardships. Monica Storrs and her companions lived among the people and in time became an integral part of those communities.
Storrs was part of a religious outreach in company with other women already at work in the West. She was in the grand but often forgotten traditions of loyalty and service as given by Eva Hasell and the "Vanners." In isolated places women like Monica Storrs were "the Church"; they laid the foundations of respect which decades later would lead to the endorsement of the ordination of women.
This is an interesting read for all church members. The diary brings to life some of the forgotten roots of the Anglican Church of Canada. Through its pages you will find yourself travelling in good company with some of our unsung heroines. David J. Carter is a former Dean of Calgary and former Speaker of the Alberta Legislature. He is the author of several books and is at present researching two new ones. He conducts supply services in the dioceses of Calgary and Montana. His hobby is locating and maintaining abandoned prairie cemeteries.

Butchertown business owner pleads for 'some action to be made' after repeated vandalism
Three separate incidents occurred, wracking up thousands of dollars worth of damages for Camp FurKids -- which has been opened all of about 90 days.
Author: Connor Steffen
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Frustration is mounting for a cluster of Butchertown businesses, who have recently fallen victim to repeated acts of vandalism targeting their properties.
Newly opened doggy daycare Camp FurKids is one of them. Co-owner Jason Starnes said their shop's security cameras caught three separate incidents, taking place in the span of a little over a month.
"[The business] had the rock bandit -- that's what I like to call him -- come early December. We came into work on a Monday to find he'd thrown a rock through a window in the greenroom," Starnes said. "Got that cleaned up and all. Then, a couple weeks later, we came in and found he had thrown a giant boulder through the front door and damaged the floors."
Starnes said his business was targeted on Dec. 5, Dec. 14 and once again this Friday.
For Camp FurKids, there's been quite a few broken windows over the last few months, putting them out $4,000.
"Everybody is frustrated and fed up with it," Starnes said. "They're ready for it to stop, you know, for some action to be made."
In the surveillance video captured by the doggy daycare, a man walks up to the business, throws a rock into the door first and then throws another rock into a window.
"It's definitely changed the way I think about the building all the time," Starnes said. "I'm constantly logging in and checking the cameras to see if there's a broken window."
"[It's] like a dark cloud," Jill Decker, Camp FurKid's other owner said. "You're kind of holding your breath every day, just waiting to see if [you get] struck again."

I have written extensively about Lyme disease for a couple of years now, beginning with a three-part series of articles that asked "Is Lyme Disease the New AIDS?" At the time, I wrote primarily LGBT- and entertainment-related stories for this blog, and I frankly suspected the essay would be sent off into the ether and not very widely read, given that my readership historically has been members of the LGBT community.
Within a couple of hours, I received an email from Raphael Stricker, a former president of the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society (ILADS), who back in 2010 co-authored an article with LymeDisease.org's Lorraine Johnson called "Lyme disease diagnosis and treatment: Lessons from the AIDS epidemic" in the English/Italian medical journal Minerva Medica. In 2014, Stricker and Johnson published a similarly themed article, "Lyme Disease: Call for a 'Manhattan Project' to Combat the Epidemic," in the medical journal PLOS Pathogens.
After Stricker's message came a trickle and then a veritable flood of messages about Lyme disease. The response overwhelmed me. I felt exposed because so much of what I had written related to my lifelong fears as a gay man who grew up in the 80s and 90s of the haunting Boogie Man of HIV/AIDS. In response to the story, I believe I received three complaints from HIV-positive people who felt that comparing anything to HIV was in poor taste, and especially something as minor (in their regards) as Lyme disease. I engaged in a lengthy debate with the most adamant of these people, and at the conclusion of our respectful conversation, she acknowledged that she knew little about Lyme disease, having extrapolated from the news stories she had read that it is a rare, easily cured illness, and that she would read more about it. That was more than enough for me; the only reason I wrote anything about Lyme disease at all was to draw attention to how harrowing it can be.
All the other responses—literally several hundred within a 72-hour period—came from severely ill people who begged me for help. Well, what could I do? I'm not a doctor. I'm not a medical researcher. I'm not a policymaker. I'm a writer and someone who has shared the surreal experience of late-stage Lyme disease. While I couldn't provide any direct service to any of these people, I resolved to investigate and write about Lyme disease.
The Working Group is organized by the HHS Office of HIV/AIDS and Infectious Disease Policy, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health.
During the meeting, expert presentations and public comments were facilitated by Dazon Dixon Diallo, president and CEO of SisterLove, Inc, a women's AIDS and reproductive justice nonprofit. Throughout her comments, Dixon Diallo repeatedly invoked the AIDS crisis and explained her involvement with the ACT UP organization responsible for making noise about HIV/AIDS devastation that it could no longer be ignored. She told meeting attendees that Lyme patients need the same level of self-advocacy.
Among remote viewers far and wide was Fred Verdult, a Dutch HIV/AIDS and Lyme disease activist, who has told me that at this time his HIV is managed by a single pill, whereas he has to take about 40 pills to manage, as best as can be done today, Lyme disease. Verdult has been a prominent HIV/AIDS activist in Europe since the 1990s, and he has told me that he has encountered a great deal more resistance to Lyme disease activism than activism on behalf of HIV/AIDS patients.
A couple of years ago, comparing the phenomenon of Lyme disease to that of HIV/AIDS felt taboo—particularly as a gay man who was indoctrinated through public school, public service campaigns and media depictions to believe that AIDS was an almost certain death sentence to all gay men—or at least an omnipresent assassin who would betray every intimate relationship.
HIV and Lyme disease are entirely different etiologically: HIV is a virus that suppresses the immune system over time, and Lyme is associated with one specific syphilis-like bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi, that for some infected individuals is easily curable and for others—for reasons not at all to poorly understood, depending whom one asks—persists for years, decades or potentially indefinitely. HIV is best know as a sexually transmitted infection, but it can also be transmitted via shared needles, blood transfusion, and from mother to child. Lyme is known primarily to be transmitted by ticks—crucially, and usually overlooked, this transmission occurs often but at unknown rates along with one or more other potentially life-threatening tickborne infections—but some evidence has shown it also can be transmitted from mother to child, and many people have concerns that it potentially may be transmittable via sexual contact or blood transfusions...officials say that this has not been documented, and there appears to be little to no interest on the part of public health agencies in investigating Lyme disease pathology more intensively.
So biologically speaking, Lyme and HIV really have almost nothing in common.
AIDS is the result of infection by the HIV virus that has gone untreated for many years. AIDS results when the immune system is severely compromised, and in most cases when opportunistic infections do serious damage to the body. AIDS patients experience a nightmarish physical decomposition of their bodies. People who live with Lyme disease that has been undiagnosed and therefore not treated, or for whom treatment for unknown reasons was not successful, likewise find themselves inside of bodies that suddenly or slowly stop working properly, in many cases with neurological and even severe psychiatric manifestations. AIDS and late-stage or chronic Lyme do share some general commonalities—the specifics from a medical standpoint may differ greatly, but the patient toll can be similar.
People who develop AIDS generally die from AIDS.
People who develop late-stage or chronic Lyme most often do not die as a direct result (with exceptions)—yet suicide rates among these patients are high due to pain, suffering, disability, and common rejection by medical doctors, who insist that these people are either mentally ill or simply attention seeking.
Those of us who are old enough to remember the early 1980s will remember that AIDS jokes for a time were somewhat in vogue, thought to be in poor taste but nevertheless common before the pandemic scared the bejeezus out of the world. Lyme disease patients remain the subjects of derision and the punchlines of jokes, perhaps especially as told by those in the medical and public health professions.
Lyme patient and cartoonist David Skidmore turned the sour insult into lemonade (Yes, I resisted the lyme-ade pun!) by publishing Lyme Loonies, a collection of Far Side-style single-panel comics that illustrate the surreal absurdity of living with Lyme disease.
As with most of Skidmore's illustrations, the above comic is an "inside joke" that many people who live with Lyme will get and few others would. In 2013, the CDC released a revision of its estimate of annual Lyme disease infections within the United States. Prior to 2013, the CDC stated that approximately 30,000 new cases of Lyme disease were acquired within the U.S. each year, based upon reports. In August of 2013, the CDC stated that it had reason to believe that Lyme is underreported at an estimated tenfold rate, with suspected actual infections numbering upwards of 300,000 per year. This "breaking of the dam" reflected Lyme patients' realities and unleashed a tidal wave of cries for additional support.
Indeed, a rate of 30,000 annual infections classified Lyme as a "rare disease." The estimate from 2013 instead classifies Lyme as one of the most common infectious diseases. One might expect this tremendous public health risk to be reflected in funding, but as Lorraine Johnson of LymeDisease.org presented to the Working Group yesterday, the "rare disease" legacy has stuck with Lyme, and Lyme disease is "funding orphaned." CDC estimates fewer than 40,000 newly acquired HIV cases each year, and the NIH has invested $3 billion per year in researching HIV for many years; in stark contrast, CDC estimates over 300,000 newly acquired Lyme cases each year, and HIV invests an average of $25 million per year in researching Lyme. According to the analysis provided by Johnson, this funding level is reflective of "rare disease" status, which was once thought to apply to Lyme disease—but not for nearly five years now.
The first day of the Working Group made clear that parallels between the barely visible Lyme pandemic and the world-rocking AIDS pandemic are undeniable. It remains to be seen whether the Working Group's deliberations and recommendations will significantly improve response by federal agencies including the CDC, responsible for control and prevention of all threatening diseases, and the NIH, responsible for funding research into all health issues.
People all over the world are watching and documenting these deliberations as they unfold. Chalk it up to another historic event brought to us by the year 2017. As the year winds down, I retain hope that human decency will help federal officials to do what is right for all people.


If you don't subscribe to the belief that necessity is the mother of invention, then get ready to have your mind blown.
In the emptiness that characterizes the "no spoilers" conversation around Netflix's "Orange Is the New Black" (or any Netflix program for that matter) after it's been released, there is now a flickering of light. Minds have come together to make the darkness less… um, dark.
First, the Astrostraddle blog discovered that an incredible amount of the cast of "OITNB" have appeared on NBC's "Law & Order" — all on the hunch of their "OITNB" recapper.
Then, the Nerve blog stepped in and was able to take that list to the next level by finding all 31 "OITNB" castmembers in their roles on "Law & Order" and editing those scenes into one almost four minute mix.
Enter TheWrap (who actually found the video on Vulture) and now you have the opportunity take part in this evolving conversation, as well.

I'll put the long answer together when I have the time. But its just that developing GPU renderer is much more difficult and the result can be fairly limited (supported materials, texmaps, fakes, memory limitations). GPU rendering would not plug well into Corona architecture at all.
And also there is no clear indication that GPU rendering is faster. Yes, there are some prototype ultra-fast ray tracers on GPU, but there were ultra-fast CPU ray tracers on Pentium 3 that reported comparable performance to Embree on quadcore i7. Both intel and nvidia have provided their promotional ray tracers, one on CPU (embree with crown scene), the other on GPU (design garage). I've tested embree on i7 and Design Garage on gf580GTX, and I have to say, I was much more impressed with embree, regarding the speed to scene difficulty ratio.


SAN DIEGO (KUSI) — When it comes to planning and economic development city leaders look to other groups for input and guidance.
One of those group is the Downtown San Diego Partnership, which has just named a new President and CEO.
42-year-old Betsy Brennan is no stranger to San Diego. She was once chief of staff to former San Diego State University President Stephen Weber and served as chief of staff to then San Diego City Council President Scott Peters.
As the incoming president of the Downtown San Diego Partnership, Brennan will lead 400 business members and 11,000 property owners in the downtown area.
The non-profit organization functions as the voice for a wide swath of interests, who want to build and promote a more vital downtown area.
KUSI's Sasha Foo talked with the new CEO about her leadership style and what she envisions for the future of the city's downtown area.

Q: Can too much wattage on a charger destroy my iphone 7 plus? I've been googling it and trying to find answers but I cant find a direct yes or no. All I find is "My 12w charger works on my iphone" and "iphone draws as much power as it allows so its ok to use an ipad charger" and "read the manual to be sure"
Well I saw a 50W charger on amazon.
Thats like 5x more than a 12w charger. And it was only 25 bucks.
Will a 50w charger destroy my phone?

A: As long as the charger is standards compliant, your phone will not be damaged because of the wattage. The phone and charger makes sure that the phone does not receive more power than it can handle.
The 50W charger you saw on Amazon is most probably misleading you. There's a bunch of these advertised as outputting "up to 50W". The reality is that the chargers have multiple outputs and each output only supports up to 2.4A per port - which at 5V is 12W.

« Biotech Venture Funding Down 33% in First Quarter | Main | A Perspective on the Cost of the Myriad BRCA Gene Test »
Allergan, Inc. v. Sandoz Inc. (Fed. Cir. 2013)
By Andrew Williams --
Can a method of treatment claim be inherent in the prior art if neither the formulation nor the method of using the formulation twice a day were in the prior art? Earlier today, the Federal Circuit determined in Allergen v. Sandoz that a claimed method for treating glaucoma (which differed from the three-times-a-day dosage regimens required of the individual components) was not inherently obvious, and thereby prevented a group of generic challengers from being able to market their own versions of Combigan® before the expiration of the patent containing the claimed method. However, Judge Dyk, dissenting-in-part, found no difference between the instant case and Federal Circuit precedent -- although the precedent relied upon was all directed to inherent anticipation. Nevertheless, the majority and dissent agreed that the claims directed to the formulation itself were obvious in view of the prior art, and therefore reversed the lower court's finding of validity of all the claims.
This case involved Allergan's formulation for a combination eye-drop product marketed as Combigan®, a product which combines a well-known alpha2-agonist Alphagan® (0.2% brimonidine) and a well-known beta-blocker Timoptic® (0.5% timolol). Allergan had found that by co-formulating these drugs, patient compliance increased because the drugs could now be administered at the same time, and because (unexpectedly) the number of daily administrations could be dropped from 3 to 2. The inventors obtained four patents on this formulation and methods of its use, all stemming from an application filed on April 19, 2002, which Allergan listed in the Orange Book. For the purposes of the appeal, the parties treated almost all of the asserted claims as one group, referring to claim 1 of U.S. Patent No. 7,323,463 ("the '463 patent") as the representative claim, which read:
1. A composition comprising about 0.2% timolol by weight and about 0.5% brimonidine by weight as the sole active agents, in a single composition.
The only other asserted claim was claim 4 of U.S. Patent No. 7,030,149 ("the '149 patent"), which read:
4. A method of reducing the number of daily topical ophthalmic doses of brimondine administered topically to an eye of a person in need thereof for the treatment of glaucoma or ocular hypertension from 3 to 2 times a day without loss of efficacy, wherein the concentration of brimonidine is 0.2% by weight, said method comprising administering said 0.2% brimonidine by weight and 0.5% timolol by weight in a single composition.
Sandoz Inc., Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Alcon Research Ltd., Alcon, Inc., and Falcon Pharmaceuticals, Ltd. (collectively, "Sandoz"), and the other defendants Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp., and Watson Laboratories, Inc., each filed Abbreviated New Drug Applications with the FDA seeking to market generic versions of Combigan®. In turn, Allergan sued them under 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(2)(A). After a claim construction determination, the lower court granted summary judgment of non-infringement as to claims 1-3 of the '149 patent, and the parties stipulated to infringement of the remaining claims. After a bench trial, the District Court found all of the claims nonobvious over the prior art. The defendants appealed.
The Formulation Claims – Claim 1 of the '463 Patent as Representative
The lower court had rejected an invalidity allegation that Claim 1 of the '463 patent was obvious primarily in view of U.S. Patent No. 5,502,052 ("DeSantis"). This reference taught the use of a combination of alpha2-agonists and beta-blockers for treating glaucoma, but did not teach that brimonidine could be one of those alpha2-agonists. Nevertheless, DeSantis incorporated by reference a publication by Timmermans, which disclosed brimonidine and its tartrate salt. Also, even if not mentioned by name, the ranges of the components of claimed formulations fell within the ranges as taught by DeSantis -- 0.02 to 2.0% alpha2-agonist and 0.01 to 3.0% beta-blocker. Also in the art was a reference that taught the topical administration of 0.2% brimonidine with 0.5% timolol in combination, although spaced five minutes apart, and the fact that it was common to dose the serial application of these two drugs twice a day. Moreover, there were only three known pharmaceutically acceptable alpha2-agonists at the time for the treatment of glaucoma -- clonidine, apraclonidine, and brimonidine. The Federal Circuit did not necessarily disagree with any of the factual findings of the lower court related to obviousness, but instead reversed because it believed that the facts instead supported a finding of obviousness.
Motivation to Combine
The lower court relied heavily on the fact that there would be no motivation to develop fixed combination products, even though such formulations might improve patient compliance, because the FDA does not consider patient compliance as a factor when approving new formulations. The Federal Circuit noted that FDA approval might be a factor in an obviousness determination, for example when determining whether there was motivation to develop a drug or whether there was skepticism regarding efficacy. However, it also noted that motivation to combine may be found in many different places, not just in the rationale used by the FDA as a basis for its approvals. In view of the overwhelming amount of prior art related to the claimed formulation, the Federal Circuit thought there was sufficient support to find a motivation to combine, notwithstanding the FDA's approval process. Somewhat lacking in the analysis, however, was how the FDA's position regarding patient compliance does factor into the obviousness determination.
Reasonable Expectation of Success
The lower court found that the unpredictability in the chemical arts weighed in favor of a finding of nonobviouness. As a factor, the District Court considered Allergan's challenges formulating Combigan®. The Federal Circuit did not agree, because some degree of unpredictability is fine, provided there is a reasonable probability of success. In this case, DeSanits provided that reasonable probability. Moreover, Allergan's formulation difficulties stemmed from the fact that it was attempting to use a proprietary preservative. There is no record of continued difficulties once its scientists switched to a commonly used preservative. The fact that the claims were not drawn to the precise formulation Combigan® was important, because there is no requirement that there be a reasonable expectation of success in formulating Combigan®.
Teaching Away
The lower court had found factors that taught away from the claimed formulation, including the potential side effects, differing dosing regimens, and disparate half-lives of brimonidine and timolol. However, as the Federal Circuit explained, the District Court did not consider the impact that these factors would have on the clear motivation to combine (probably because it did not find a motivation to combine). Interestingly, the Federal Circuit pointed out that the lower court did not find that the prior art as a whole taught away from the claimed invention. The Court, therefore, accepted the factual findings from below, but concluded that they did not render the invention nonobvious.
Secondary Factors
Finally, the Federal Circuit accepted all the lower court's factual findings with regard to secondary considerations of nonobviousness, but still found that they did not weigh heavily enough to overcome obviousness of the claims. With regard to long-felt need, the District Court's findings were apparently entirely conclusory. With regard to unexpected results, the lower court had found that the claimed formulations were able to overcome previous difficulties in treating patients with twice-per-day dosage regimens. The Federal Circuit thought this was somewhat irrelevant. The Court did agree that these results were unexpected. However, while such results might be meaningful to method of treatment claims, they were not as relevant to the formulation claims.
The Method-of-Treatment Claim – Claim 4 of the '149 Patent
As shown above, the treatment claim has a couple of relevant limitations, including the above-referenced formulation of brimonidine and timolol, and the use of this formulation twice a day with the same efficacy as brimonidine administration three times a day. The problem with administering brimonidine only twice a day was that efficacy would drop eight to nine hours after administration, in a phenomenon referred to as "afternoon trough." The majority found that the defendants did not establish by clear and convincing evidence that the claimed method would have been obvious. Importantly, the defendants apparently did not argue that the "efficacy limitation" is inherent to all fixed combination products containing brimonidine and timolol, or that a dose reduction would inherently flow from the obvious formulation included in the claims. And, the defendants' citation to the success in using timolol with other non-alpha2-agonist ophthalmic drugs with reduced doses was found to be irrelevant, because there was no reason why the use of these unrelated drugs would make the claimed method obvious.
Judge Dyk, in dissent, disagreed -- he would have also reversed the finding of nonobviousness of this claim. He relied heavily on his belief that the method claim only contained one step -- applying a fixed combination of 0.2% brimonidine and 0.5% timolol twice a day. It was not explained, however, why he considered two administrations to be a single step. Nevertheless, Judge Dyk believed that the twice-a-day dosing of a formulation that was not in the prior art would have nonetheless been obvious to one skilled in the art, and that the alleged avoiding-"loss of efficacy" limitation was just the result of the claimed method. As support for this proposition, Judge Dyk cited to three Federal Circuit cases: Abbott Labs. v. Baxter Pharm. Prods., 471 F.3d 1363 (Fed. Cir. 2006); In re Cruciferous Sprout Litig., 301 F.3d 1343 (Fed. Cir. 2002), and Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. v. Ben Venue Labs., 246 F.3d 1368 (Fed. Cir. 2001). However, each of these cases relates to inherent anticipation, not inherent obviousness. It is not self-evident that the reasoning behind allowing the inherent result flowing from the use of a prior art composition or method to anticipate a claim would apply with equal force to a composition or method that was only obvious in view of the prior art. In other words, citation of these cases, without more, is like comparing apples with oranges.
Moreover, Judge Dyk does not appear to consider the fact that there were two limitations that were not taught in the prior art -- the formulation and its method of use. It should not be sufficient to conclude that, just because a formulation was obvious, any method of using it must also be. Granted, this case would have been completely different if the claimed formulation was taught in the prior art, and the only potentially obvious limitation was its use twice a day. In such a case, it is possible that its use might have been obvious, and the "efficacy" result that flowed from it could therefore have been inherent. This is, perhaps, why the majority agreed in footnote 1 that "the inherency doctrine may apply to an otherwise obvious claim" in some situations. Nevertheless, this was not the case and, without more, the majority's position was more grounded in the facts of the case, and in the Court's precedent.

NYCLA Report: Collateral Consequences of Non-Criminal Adjudications
Organization: New York County Lawyers' Association
Date Created: Monday, May 08, 2006
Submitted: Wednesday, November 01, 2006
Collateral Consequences of Non-Criminal Adjudications
Report by the New York County Lawyers' Association (May 8, 2006)
The New York County Lawyers' Association (NYCLA) has called for the immediate creation of a procedure to address the collateral consequences of non-criminal convictions to petty offenses in a report, The Collateral Consequences of Non-Criminal Adjudications, prepared by its Criminal Courts Task Force. The Report acknowledged the worsening problem of collateral consequences for non-criminals, particularly with the advent of electronic databases. Discovery of these records had previously only been possible by a manual search from courthouse to courthouse. More sophisticated technology now enables individuals to access the New York State Office of Court Administration's (OCA) electronic database, which contains a statewide listing of all public court records of any individual, including convictions to non-criminal petty offenses, for a $52 fee.
Individuals with no criminal record are increasingly suffering from employment, housing, education and credit problems with the advent of this easily available database.
Under the current sealing structure, there is no avenue for a person who may have otherwise lived and will continue to live a law-abiding life to seal his or her court record for a non-criminal petty offense such as disorderly conduct or a traffic infraction. All law enforcement agencies, which include the Police Department and District Attorney's Office, in addition to city and state agencies' fingerprint records, are sealed by law, but the court records remain open.
There is widespread support to resolve immediately this mounting problem. NYCLA's Report suggests two alternative legislative proposals, both designed to directly address the matter.

New medical communications agency BOLDSCIENCE launches
The new global agency boldly sets out its plans to become a major player in med comms
BOLDSCIENCE, a new global medical communications agency, has launched this week. The 'scientifically creative' agency is developing a unique blend of high science, creativity and innovation within a people-focussed culture.
Co-founders Mark Lydiatt, Mark Hardy, Yasmin Grant and Alison Lovibond have joined forces to launch BOLDSCIENCE and its holding company, CO-LAB Global in both the US and UK.
Chief Executive Officer, Lydiatt said: "At BOLDSCIENCE and CO-LAB Global, our goal is to help our pharmaceutical and biotech client partners to deliver the best, most impactful healthcare communications that help drive changes in treatment practises and ultimately improve patients' lives."
The co-founders were all previously senior leaders at Nucleus Global, with Lydiatt being the former Chief Executive Officer. The co-founding quad bring with them decades of experience across the breadth of strategic medical communications, creative design and digital service innovation.
Commenting on the new venture, Chief Scientific Officer, Lovibond said: "We were driven by a desire to build a people-focussed agency that reflects our own vision of delivering the very best, forward-thinking med comms, within a positive workplace environment where individuals can thrive".
Among the services on offer are communications strategy, medical affairs support, medical publications, scientific events, training, commercial support, expert engagement, and clinical trial support, with an industry-leading creative and digital offering underpinning all service areas.
Hardy, BOLDSCIENCE's Chief Creative Officer said: "Too many agencies are either known for being scientific or being creative. With our integrated offering and hand-picked, in-house talent, we are delivering both high-science and top-end creative".
Simultaneous opening of the CO-LAB Global holding company reflects the co-founders' bold ambitions to create multiple agencies under the umbrella brand and become a major player in med comms. Despite the challenging global environment, BOLDSCIENCE has been able to make strong inroads into their plan. They have been helping global pharma and biotech clients develop and deliver virtual programming and remote expert engagement strategies, and are exploring collaborations with proprietary big data, digital and clinical research organizations. Ultimately, they plan to offer an extended suite of offerings beyond the full-service agency capabilities.
"We've been astounded at how quickly we've established ourselves. We believe that if we are true to our values and surround ourselves with people who love what they do and who strive to be the best, we can build great things together" says Chief Commercial Officer, Grant.
The agency has teams established in Atlanta and Princeton, and an office in central London. Other locations will be considered globally in support of their growing client needs.

Luis G. Amoros, 86, a government chemist and assistant professor of biochemistry, died of renal failure on May 22.
Born in San Juan, P.R., Amoros earned a B.S. in chemistry from the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras, in 1943. For the next five years, he worked as a chemist in the research laboratory of the Economic Development Administration (Fomento), in Puerto Rico. In 1955, he earned a Ph.D. in organic chemistry from Carnegie Institute of Technology (now Carnegie Mellon University) under Robert B. Carlin.
During the next three years, Amoros was assistant professor of biochemistry at the School of Medicine in San Juan. In 1958, he returned to Fomento as assistant director of its Industrial Research Laboratory, but his love of teaching led him back to UPR Rio Piedras, where he taught organic chemistry until retiring in 1975.
Amoros spent a sabbatical year at Duke University in 1966 doing postdoctoral research under Ben Gray. In 1973, he spent a second sabbatical year at Colorado State University, where, under Frank R. Stermitz, he worked on the synthesis of fagaronine and studied the synthesis and biological activity of some antitumor benzophenanthridinium salts. Amoros was an emeritus member of ACS, joining in 1948.
He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Sylvia; son, Luis Manuel; daughter, Sylvia Ivette; and four grandchildren.

Pantheon movie of the month - THE KILLERS
THE KILLERS is a great film noir, originally released in 1946, and back on release as part of the British Film Institute's Burt Lancaster retrospective. It's now seen as the film that launched Lancaster's career, and one of the best examples of Ava Gardner's explosive screen prescence.
The movie opens with a prologue taken from an Ernest Hemingway short story. Two assassins enter a simple diner in a small town and menace the owner, his chef and an innocent bystander. They're waiting for a garage mechanic who evidently had a previous life running with wrong crowd. Echoes of HISTORY OF VIOLENCE abound. It becomes apparent that the mechanic won't be coming in and the assassins leave. The bystander then runs through the town of picket fences to warn him. It's an exhilerating scene but culminates in an outstandingly dark, brooding scene in a boarding house. The friend bursts into the mechanic's room. He's lying on his bed, his face entirely in shadow. With a morbid passivity, he thanks his friend for coming, sends him away and wait to die. Echoes of JESSE JAMES offering his back to the coward ROBERT FORD.
The rest of the movie is, like that film, a "whydunnit", penned by Anthony Veillor and John Huston. Why did the mechanic, known as the Swede, aka Ole Andersen aka Robert Lund, refuse to run? Why didn't he want to live? The answers will be uncovered by an insurance investigator played by Edmond O'Brien. And really, this is his film in terms of screen time. In a series of CITIZEN KANE style flashbacks, he'll interview people who knew the Swede and recreate his motives.
Burt Lancaster is a charismatic presence but is only ever refracted in other people's memories. He's the boxer, forced onto the sidelines by an injury and a brutally capitalistic manager. He's the dumb lug patsy hooked by Ava Gardner's gangster's moll - so obvious and vulnerable it's painful to watch. He's the fall guy for her crime, and even upon release, when she's left him for another man, he goes along with a heist in order to be close to her. Finally, he's a broken man, violent with rage, intent on self-harm.
The supporting cast is absolutely cracking and the story hangs together in a way that a Raymond Chandler novel never does. The feel of the movie is cool and detached, maybe because it's told through the eyes of the dispassionate insurance man. All the time, this tragic love story is reduced to an irrelevance - almost daring the audience to feel involved. The insurance boss tells the investigator that all he's achieved in solving the mystery is to lower the insurance premium in 1947 by a fraction of a cent. Such is the worth of The Swede. Behind the camera, we get a great orchestral score by Miklos Rozsa and superb cinematography from Woody Bredell. There's a lot of use of crane shots and characters on different levels of a building - allowing interesting perspectives and depth of vision. The continuous crane shot of the heist is particularly memorable.
It all adds up to a great film noir, not so much because of Lancaster - although he's great in it - but because of Robert Siodmak's superb ensemble cast and bleak vision.
THE KILLERS was originally released in 1946 - the year of BRIEF ENCOUNTERS, NOTORIOUS and IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. It was nominated for Oscars for Best Director, Best Editor (Arthur Hilton), Best Score (Miklos Rozsa) and Best Screenplay (Anthony Veiller) but lost out not to any of these great films but to the Myrna Loy WW2 romance, THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES! THE KILLERS is currently playing at the BFI Southbank as part of the Burt Lancaster retrospective, and is widely available on DVD.

The Life and Times of Jo Mora: Iconic Artist of the American West (Hardcover)
By Peter Hiller
On hand as of Jan 17 6:33am
(BIOGRAPHY)
An essential addition to any collection of Western art and Americana, The Life and Times of Jo Mora provides an in-depth biography of this gifted illustrator, painter, writer, cartographer, and sculptor.
Jo Mora (1876-1947) lived the Western life he depicted in his prolific body of visual art, comprising sculpture, paintings, architectural adornments, dioramas, and maps. He explored California Missions, the natural glories of Yosemite, California's ranch life, and eventually the culture of the Hopi and Navajo in Arizona. During his travels, Mora documented observations that became the source material and inspiration for much of his later artwork.
The magnitude of Mora's insights into his life and work, as described in his own words--many presented here in this book--cannot be underestimated. Jo Mora's many diaries, journals, and literary efforts reveal an intellectual discernment, originality, and humor that enhance our appreciation of his work.
Remarkably, throughout his life Mora supported his family solely through a series of art commissions that ranged from restaurant murals to heroic-scale sculpture. He welcomed risks and challenges, was unafraid of hard work, and did nearly everything well, from writing children's stories to commanding an army battalion-in-training to shooting mountain lions. Ever modest, he seemed to think that this versatility was nothing extraordinary. Peter Hiller's thoughtful presentation of Jo Mora's life is seen here in all of its creative glory.
Living a life engrossed in the visual arts has allowed author Peter Hiller to express his creativity through his own art, and to share that experience with students during a teaching career of almost forty years. His discovery of the world of Jo Mora opened new doors of interest as he endeavored to uncover Mora's seemingly endless creative abilities and accomplishments. This biography is the culmination of more than twenty-five years of striving to understand and appreciate this important artist. Since 1981, Hiller has been fortunate to live on the Monterey Peninsula in California with his wife of forty-eight years. He is the proud father of two grown sons.

Cede vs. concede
Cede means to surrender possession of. The main definitions of concede are (1) to acknowledge something as true or correct, (2) to admit defeat, and (3) to yield or allow something. These words have been mixed up for so long that some dictionaries have given up and assigned them one another's definitions. They're usually kept separate in edited writing, though, and there's no reason careful writers shouldn't also honor the distinction between these useful words.
Cede is also occasionally confused with secede, which means to withdraw formally from membership in an organization.
These writers use cede in the conventional sense:
On Monday he gave a speech suggesting that he was prepared to cede most of the West Bank to a Palestinian state. [Washington Post]
While the original chapel was ceded to English Presbyterians in the 17th century, two small dwellings opposite were converted into a secret chapel. [Telegraph]
A NSW Department of Education spokesman denies that this ceding of responsibility has gone too far. [Sydney Morning Herald]
And these writers use concede in its conventional sense:
There is, most Conservatives will even concede, a limited role for public financing of political parties. [Toronto Sun]
Late in the day, Ms. Fujimori conceded the election and said the country should seek to heal the rifts from a polarizing campaign. [Wall Street Journal]
Amir took four wickets in seven overs, conceding just nine runs. [Irish Times]
Cimaron Neugebauer says
Interesting irony how grammarist site misspelled "from" when mentioning difference between the two words. Secede is when someone withdraws FROM an organization, not form.
Grammarist says
We make typos like anyone else. Thank you for pointing it out.
CarsonHowell says
EW, a typo-ist.
purple says
Can I say "The property was ceded to his use." Thanks!
What about "The property was conceded to his use."

Custom user models
==================

Custom user forms example
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This example shows how to add a text field and foreign key field to a custom user model
and configure Wagtail user forms to allow the fields values to be updated.

Create a custom user model. In this case we extend the ``AbstractUser`` class and add
two fields. The foreign key references another model (not shown).

.. code-block:: python

  class User(AbstractUser):
      country = models.CharField(verbose_name='country', max_length=255)
      status = models.ForeignKey(MembershipStatus, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True, default=1)

Add the app containing your user model to ``INSTALLED_APPS`` and set AUTH_USER_MODEL_ to reference
your model. In this example the app is called ``users`` and the model is ``User``

.. code-block:: python

  AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'users.User'

Create your custom user create and edit forms in your app:

.. code-block:: python

  from django import forms
  from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _

  from wagtail.wagtailusers.forms import UserEditForm, UserCreationForm

  from users.models import MembershipStatus

  class CustomUserEditForm(UserEditForm):
      country = forms.CharField(required=True, label=_("Country"))
      status = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=MembershipStatus.objects, required=True, label=_("Status"))

  class CustomUserCreationForm(UserCreationForm):
      country = forms.CharField(required=True, label=_("Country"))
      status = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=MembershipStatus.objects, required=True, label=_("Status"))

Extend the Wagtail user create and edit templates. These extended template should be placed in a
template directory ``wagtailusers/users``.

Template create.html:

.. code-block:: html+django

  {% extends "wagtailusers/users/create.html" %}

  {% block extra_fields %}
      {% include "wagtailadmin/shared/field_as_li.html" with field=form.country %}
      {% include "wagtailadmin/shared/field_as_li.html" with field=form.status %}
  {% endblock extra_fields %}

.. note::
   Using ``{% extends %}`` in this way on a template you're currently overriding is only supported in Django 1.9 and above. On Django 1.8, you will need to use `django-overextends <https://github.com/stephenmcd/django-overextends>`_ instead.

Template edit.html:

.. code-block:: html+django

  {% extends "wagtailusers/users/edit.html" %}

  {% block extra_fields %}
      {% include "wagtailadmin/shared/field_as_li.html" with field=form.country %}
      {% include "wagtailadmin/shared/field_as_li.html" with field=form.status %}
  {% endblock extra_fields %}

The ``extra_fields`` block allows fields to be inserted below the last name field
in the default templates. Other block overriding options exist to allow appending
fields to the end or beginning of the existing fields, or to allow all the fields to
be redefined.

Add the wagtail settings to your project to reference the user form additions:

.. code-block:: python

  WAGTAIL_USER_EDIT_FORM = 'users.forms.CustomUserEditForm'
  WAGTAIL_USER_CREATION_FORM = 'users.forms.CustomUserCreationForm'
  WAGTAIL_USER_CUSTOM_FIELDS = ['country', 'status']

Donald Trump reportedly reacted to Kanye West's antisemitic outbursts
Former US President Donald Trump is seemingly against his friend Kanye "Ye" West's recent anti-Semitic remarks according to a new report by Rolling Stone.

It's very telling that even Trump, who's in the middle of his own – ahem – problems, thinks Ye has gone too far. This is exactly what a report in Rolling Stone is claiming.
On Monday, the outlet cited two sources close to the former president, who apparently said Trump isn't a fan of Ye's racist and antisemitic remarks.
After the Hurricane rapper shockingly tweeted that he'd go "death con 3" on "JEWISH PEOPLE," Trump reportedly told multiple people that Ye is acting too "crazy" and that he needs some professional help.

Of course, there's a pretty breathtaking hypocrisy in that, given the 76-year-old's recent statement on his platform Truth Social.
"No President has done more for Israel than I have," Trump began a post on Sunday "Somewhat surprisingly, however, our wonderful Evangelicals are far more appreciated of this than the people of the Jewish faith, especially those living in the US."
"U.S. Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they have in Israel," he continued, ominuosly adding: "Before it is too late."
Aside from spewing antisemitic bile, Kanye West also spent the weekend spreading lies about George Floyd's cause of death, which could leave him open to legal action.
