A neophyte skydiver takes the plunge into Acampo
By Chris Schipper
I'm perched at the open door of a Beech 99 Airliner, traveling around 150 mph at 13,000 feet. It's really windy. I'm looking down at a patchwork of Central California farms and wineries. From here, to be honest, it isn't much to look at. So when the guy harnessed to my back shouts at me to look up, I don't hesitate. Neither does he. Just as I lift my head back and feel it touch his shoulder, he thrusts us through the door. We torpedo toward the Earth.
Skydiving is one of those things. Like going to the gym or backpacking around Europe. Haven't we all thought maybe one day we'd give it a try? For most of us, though, it remains an abstraction. Sure, it might be cool, but that's about as far as we've thought it out. Maybe it'll help to know that—in these parts, at least—jumping from a plane is one of the cheapest and easiest ways to get a mind-blowing thrill.
At the Parachute Center in Acampo (www.parachutecenter.com), for instance, you can show up anytime before 3 p.m., pay $100 and, before you know it, be free falling. That's what I did. The Parachute Center claims to be the cheapest place in the United States for a first-time tandem skydive. (Typical rates range from $150-$250.) Owner Bill Dause, a genial man in his 60s with over 40 years of skydiving experience, takes pride in keeping prices low enough to prevent the sport from getting too "yuppie."
Certainly it has come a long way. The parachute itself is very old—da Vinci designed one, and some people even trace its origins as far back as 1100 A.D. What we now know as "skydiving," though, developed after World War II. "Airborne guys were coming home and thinking, 'The jump would be fun, if there weren't guys shooting at us,'" Dause says. Skydiving clubs began sprouting up all over the country, and the sport became commercially available by the late 1950s. "You didn't have to be in a club. You could come in and pay their fee and get your training."
Dause started in the business in 1964, and has been in Acampo since 1981. During his career, he witnessed skydiving's slow but steady growth into the 1980s, when tandem jumps became available and the sport got more mainstream. To perform a solo skydive, one has to undergo hours of instruction and practice. But going tandem, as I learned, doesn't take much prep at all.
The Parachute Center's first-timers prepare by watching a VHS video produced sometime in the '80s, featuring a guy with a 2-foot-long white beard who looks like a poor man's Gandalf. "We anticipate some changes in the early 1990s," he warns. The video, which a friend of mine described as a "buzz kill," essentially scares the shit out of you, informs you that you might die and commands you to do whatever your instructor says. Your instructor doesn't really ask much of you, as he'll be fastened to you the whole time and taking care of everything. The first-timer really is just along for the ride.
Gandalf was right about the changing future. In 1995, the inaugural X Games exposed hordes of young Americans to "extreme" sports—bungee jumping, freestyle BMX, skateboarding, sky surfing and the like—whose popularity has risen steadily ever since. Dan Cassan, now 26, was among those who facilitated the X Games' conquest of popular culture. Cassan, the guy who'd strapped himself to my back and pushed me through that door at 13,000 feet, was a mere 18 years old when he first made the leap himself. Over subsequent years, skydiving became Cassan's favorite hobby, and then his profession. He's that guy.
Skydivers measure their progress in benchmarks—for the number of jumps, for maneuvers performed, for accurate landings, and so on. To be a tandem instructor, one has to complete 500 jumps and be well rated. Cassan has logged over 5,000 jumps to date. He feels that skydiving allows people to accomplish something amazing without having to sacrifice too much. In fact, he says, "It doesn't require great athletic ability."
To the uninitiated, though, the skydiving subculture remains rather intimidating, a world full of hard-core people with reckless attitudes. The more experienced folks tend to allow that mythology: "We're not trying to discourage that. That brings people in," Dause says. The reality is much more boring. Actually, the staff and clientele at the Parachute Center doesn't seem any more punk-rock than the regulars at the Olive Garden down the street. "We get doctors, nurses, lawyers. If you can imagine it, we've got it," Cassan says. "We have a guy that comes out here all the time and jumps and he's 82 years old."
"The reality," Dause adds, "is that it's more dangerous to drive on the freeway than to skydive." They say that about everything, right? Well, the United States Parachute Association reported 21 skydiving fatalities and 962 injuries out of 2.2 million jumps in 2006. That makes the freeway a lot more dangerous.
"It's a sad state of affairs," says Cassan. "Whenever there's an accident in the sport and it's in the news, business goes through the roof. People just want to be able to go home and tell their friends about how they almost died."
I could have been killed, friends. Plummeting toward the ground at up to 150 mph, my entire life flashed before my eyes. I stared death square in the eye and, without trepidation, I laughed! That's right. I giggled absurdly at doom, and I … well, no, not really.
Actually, the scariest aspect of skydiving for the first time is the anticipation. Mine began, in earnest, the night before the jump. My friends and I were wound tight with nervous energy. None of us got more than three hours of sleep. Then, throughout the day, the jitters intensified. Through a nervous, giggling meeting at a friend's apartment. Through the drive to the Parachute Center. Through the scary video and the signing away of our legal rights. Through the efficient climb to 13,000 feet—where, finally, my jitters gave way to truly unbridled enthusiasm. I rocked incessantly back and forth. I whooped. I began a loony impromptu hand-clapping routine. Then, Cassan instructed me to put on my goggles, lest the powerful wind turn my eyeballs into raisins in my skull, and someone opened the door.
I watched, happily, as several friends and strangers systematically tossed themselves from the plane. Finally it was my turn, and we pitched out. I'm not sure what I was expecting. After a solid 16 hours of worry, fear, excitement and constant speculation, my mind had tied itself in knots.
Out in the air, I was euphoric. I screamed and laughed and carried on for about 30 to 40 seconds, without a care in the world, without a single coherent thought in my head. It was plum wonderful. Then I started thinking. "We sure have been falling for a while," I thought. The ground approached. But I wasn't afraid. The euphoria waned, and I became strangely rational. "Any second now, he's going to pull the chord and open the chute," I thought. Then he did. After a violent, disorienting jerk, we were gliding, slowly now, peacefully, through smoggy sky. Cassan pointed out where the Sacramento skyline should be, behind the haze on the horizon, and he claimed there were some neat foothills to the west. I'll have to take his word for it.
A few minutes later we landed, rather gently, on a grass field about 50 feet from where we'd taken off. We laughed and hugged and basked in our collective high. I practically demanded to go again, right then and there. My friends agreed, but we didn't have the cash. By god, we'd find the cash! We began to hatch schemes. We could become certified skydivers. We could do this all the time. Why the hell wouldn't we? We bombarded our instructors with nagging questions: What does it cost to get certified? How long does it take? How soon can we do it? They answered our queries with the cynical patience of professionals, well trained to handle newbie adrenaline junkies.
"If we had a nickel for everyone that told us they were coming back to get certified, we all would have retired to a desert island long ago," Dause says now. "It requires initiative and resources to follow through."
Sure, it's easy, when drunk on endorphins, to think only about the next fix. But when the rush subsides—and, as Dause puts it, "reality sets in"—we come to remember that there are other priorities in life besides hurling yourself headlong through the atmosphere. Then again, that could be what makes it so worth doing.

Icy Tower Download Game
Icy Tower 2 For Pc
Download Free Games is a small business owned and operated by iWin Inc. You will jump from platform to platform up and up and up the tower. There is also a decent although limited soundtrack that complements the gameplay well. The horizontal length of each floor depends on the player's progress, the version of the game, and a random factor. You can work towards improving these stats or towards a new rank to show just how skilled you are.
Play Now Download the full version. The Classic Mode is the normal gameplay that has you jumping from platform to platform as the screen scrolls faster and faster. Dreaming of an ad-free web? The biggest challenge of Icy Tower is that this is a one life kind of game. The game play consists of the single-minded pursuit of reaching the top of the tower in which our homeboy finds himself by jumping onto the ledges throughout.
The arrow keys can move you left or right while the space bar makes you jump. See how high you can make it or go for the largest score as you move further and further up. The only negative aspect may be the sound effects played when jumping. One positive aspect of the game is the relatively simple controls.
He needs your help to climb an Icy Tower! From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Making a new character only requires the player to create an image file of a certain structure. You need to jump and get as high as you can. This can make you leap the length of the screen in a single leap.
This is to be expected with a game like this, but sometimes when you die, you feel it is because of the game and not because you made a mistake this can be frustrating. On the other hand, the profile and ranks do give you something to work toward and a reason to replay. Icy Tower is great game that would be an excellent choice for anyone interested in a simple, fun, addicting arcade game.
Additionally, players frequently compete against themselves in online competitions. Download and installation help. Free Download for Windows. The makers of Icy Tower maintain contact with its players, whose opinions are taken into account in the course of the game's continuing developing.
Icy Tower is an easy-to-pick-up platformer that is hugely addictive, despite its simplicity. Those are the only controls that you have to worry about so anyone can play this game. Check This Sick Combo Bro! Also when you download the game, watch that it does not try to install this weird toolbar on your computer as well! You can play the Custom Mode and adjust some settings, but some can't be made easier like scrolling speed and nothing you in this mode counts towards your profile or rank.
Please improve this by adding secondary or tertiary sources. The higher the player's character climbs, the faster the tower's floors move downward and the harder the game becomes. One downside is the lack of options to adjust the difficulty settings. These platforms range from very wide to barely large enough to stand on. This was a bit of a phenomenon a couple of years back and it is very easy to see why once you have played it for just five minutes.
Online high-score lists may require players to provide game replays to verify their results. For a tabletop game, see IceTowers. You can save and watch replays of your best attempts or find out where you messed up on bad ones.
Icy Tower Review
Best of all, it's completely free. You gather points by beating the clock to the top of each Icy Tower level and by building jump combinations. The gameplay of Icy Tower could not be any more simple. You will try and make it up the floors each time you play and wonder why you can't seem to make it all the way up the Icy Tower. This article relies too much on references to primary sources.
Icy Tower records players's best results in built-in high-score tables. The controls and combos are clearly outlined in the instructions of the game.
We do not encourage or condone the use of this program if it is in violation of these laws. It's a great way to increase your score dramatically and quickly move up the tower. Screenshots Click Screenshot to Enlarge. Icy Tower is a fun and challenging arcade game that will you have jumping from platform to platform as you race up an unbelievably tall tower.
The only controls you need to play Icy Tower are left, right and jump. Adjust the settings in Custom Mode to create a game that's right for you.
You could work towards earning the next ranking by achieving whatever objectives you need. Icy Tower is a great way to kill some time, but whether the game lasts long will depend on the type of player you are. There are also a variety of Icy Tower characters that you can choose, download or even create yourself! The goal is to reach the highest possible floor and accumulate the greatest number of points.
Adjust a variety of options to create an experience that's perfect for you in the Custom Mode. The game follows a sequence-based software versioning scheme. Custom Mode is almost identical to Classic Mode, except that it gives you more options and does not count towards your profile or rank.
Redirected from Icy Towers. Internal structure of Icy Tower allows for the use of skins through downloading and installation repackaged resource files.
The presentation in Icy Tower is positive overall, with clean and colorful graphics that look very good, especially compared to similar games. In every round, contestants are required to record one or more replays with a result in a specific category of the game. While Icy Tower does not provide different levels or towers to play, rascal flatts music it does offer two modes.
The player starts the game on the tower's ground floor. The game has a score system and to get the highest score you will have to do combos. You can also jump off the walls to get to a higher platform. Another issue with the game is the repetitive nature of the gameplay. Patches for Icy Tower are distributed inside and outside of official game packages.
By moving across the floor, the player builds momentum for the next jump. The result is a quick, enjoyable game that you could load anytime and play for a minute or half-an-hour. Modifications and utilities for Icy Tower.
Save or watch replays of any of your games. Icy Tower can be a fun game for what it is. At the start of the game, the tower's floors are stationary. What's Free - Play game for minutes.

Q: PHP profile columns visibility + MySQL I'm seeking for the best method to implement the column visibility in users profile.
Imagine the following scenario:
Name   : stackoverflow   | [checkbox] visible = 1
Address: New York        | [checkbox] visible = 0
Phone  : 312 021 11      | [checkbox] visible = 1
Email  : stack@stack.com | [checkbox] visible = 1

With this, I have two tables: profile and profile_visibility
profile
ID
ID_User (joins with the User table)
Address
Phone
Email

profile_visibility
ID
ID_User (joins with the User table)
Address
Phone
Email

The fields of profile_visibility are all (except id_user and id) of tinyint data.
Now, I would like to make a loop to all columns to check if that column is visibile or not, instead of making conditions (because I have more than that columns). Something like:
$profile = $this->profile($id); // gets the info (as array) of profile
$visibility = $this->profile_visibility($id); // gets the visibility of fields

for($i = 0; $i <= sizeof($profile) - 1; $i++){
   /* I can't match $profile with $visibility because the values are different..

      $profile[$i]['name'] == $visibility[$i]['name']

      $profile[$i]['name'] > it's equal to: 'stackoverflow'
      $visibility[$i]['name'] > it's equal to: '1'

   */
}

EDIT: Solved -> But it's not the best solution, see @niyou solution.
foreach($visibility as $key => $val) {
    if($val == 1){
        if(array_key_exists($key, $profile)){
            $content .= "

                                " . ucfirst($key) . ":

                            " . $profile[$key] . "

";
        }
    }
}

A: I think its a matter of your design:
I would create a table profile_fields where i define my possible data fields
profile_fields: field_id,field_name,field_position,...
My other Table holds the information whether a field ist visible or not for a user - named user_fields
user_fields: user_field_id, user_id, field_id, visible
Now you can easily query only those fields which are visible for a user:
SELECT field_id, field_name
FROM profile_fields
    LEFT JOIN user_fields USING (field_id)
WHERE user_id=$user_id AND visible=true

The Prodigy is also known for combining their music styles and incorporating genres such as industrial, rave, punk, electronic rock, breakbeat and hardcore.

The new tour has been named the Run With The Wolves Tour and the band commented on the new tour to the media, saying: "We wanted to kick off 2010 in the UK so we are coming to some of the towns that we missed last year – sometimes these places can get forgotten so we wanted to bring the show to fans who don't often get a chance to see us."
The tour dates and venues of the Run With The Wolves Tour are as follows: The Doncaster Dome on 21 January 2010, followed by Bridlington Spa on 22 January, Blackpool Empress Ballroom on 23 January, Plymouth Pavilions on 25 January, Southend Cliffs Pavilion on 26 January and the Bournemouth International Centre on 27 January 2010. Tickets to this amazing The Prodigy tour were made available from August 2009 and die-hard Prodigy fans are advised to purchase their tickets as soon as possible, before these venues are sold out. After completing the Run With The Wolves Tour, The Prodigy will continue with their Invaders Must Die World Tour. The additional tour dates are a wonderful opportunity for thousands of fans to be able to see their favorite band live, especially those who were not able to travel to last year's venues.

Mixed Reactions For Worried College Dux /
Seventh Day Adventist College, Lalovaea, school dux, Angellyn Fa'aleiua, with proud parents Si'u and Toelei'u after the school prize giving today.
The Seventh Day Adventist Church College, Lalovaea, school dux award of 2019 went to 18-year-old Commerce student, Angellyn Fa'aleiua.
Her coveted academic award was presented at the school prize giving today at Lalovaea.
The annual end of the year event was postponed from last year 2019 by the measles epidemic and it was combined from primary up to the college levels.
Fa'aleiua confided that she struggled to breath, when her name was called out before the large turnout of parents, other family members and the whole school.
"This has always been by my focus when I started school, I never wanted to be second in class and it has carried me through to this moment in my final college year," said the Year 13 student.
The proud achievement gave much needed distraction for the dux, whose older sister in the US military who is being assigned on a tour of duty to the Middle East hot spot in Iraq.
Her parents, Siu and Toelei'u Fa'aleiua, welcomed the award as a huge measure of relief for the worried family.
"We've all been concerned in the family for my daughter in the American army going off to Iraq, so this dux award is a welcome cheer for us all," the grateful father in the family of one son and 3 daughters celebrated at the end of the prize giving.
"Right now our prayers are with our daughter taking up duty for the US army in a very dangerous region in the world."
For the dux daughter in Samoa, the future is in her interest in economic studies.
"I want to be an economist, it is a line of profession that I know not many are interested in taking up."
Her personal inspiration in economics and of the person that she looks upon as her role model is the Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi.
"I firmly believe that without his influence and leadership, we would not be where we are today enjoying the good state of the economy in Samoa."
Moving on from college education had their sad moments for the school dux. She felt it strongly when the school broke off early for the holidays last year because of the measles epidemic.
"We knew we were coming back for our school prize giving and it was small consolation that we will meet again to make our final goodbyes."

Dorky Dino stands out at Planet Comicon
Posted By: Andy LyonsPosted date: February 21, 2018 in: ArtNo Comments
by Andy Lyons, Editor-in-Chief
Planet Comicon attracts thousands of fans to Bartle Hall in Kansas City every year with some of the biggest names in pop culture from celebrities to creators. While perusing Artist Alley, a familiar face stood out behind a booth full of colorful prints of various Pokemon and mythical creatures – Brandi Stone, the creative mind behind Dorky Dino.
Stone is an alumna of the University of Central Missouri and has had her work featured in the Warrensburg, Mo. First Fridays Art Walks as well as other conventions throughout the Kansas City metro.
One of the many things that stand out with her artwork is the unique designs of her work, ranging from original paintings to various 5×7 prints to necklaces. Among her most well-known is the "Chubby Unicorn." Stone said she gets her motivation for her pieces from her life experiences and personal preferences.

"I get inspired by a lot of different things, everything throughout my life," she said. "I really love animals so I do a lot of work with animals, there's a lot of shows that I watch. I like playing video games like Pokemon, so anything that I feel a connection to that's kind of where I get my inspiration."
The artwork on her booth ranged from legendary characters such as Chewbacca, Pokemon such as Cubone and Growlithe, as well as many of her own design. She said she chooses her favorites or sometimes creates something as a commission and then gets permission to make prints from that work to build a wide range of products – each with her unique style shining with each piece.
Stone was a graphic design major at UCM, but enjoys working with a variety of mediums including digital, painting, and watercolors. She designs her necklaces and keychains herself and prints her artwork from home, while using a service to have her charms and necklaces printed on acrylic and laser cut. She said she based her selection of products on items she would want personally.
"A lot of it is things I kind of wanted," Stone said. "I wanted necklaces that I could wear and show people hey here's my art in a form that you can wear and I can just take it around with me. I like to have things at a lot of different price points because not everyone can afford an original that might be out of their price range but they might want a smaller print of it so I offer a few different sizes at different prices."
Stone attributed the selection she brought with her to Planet Comicon from her experiences displaying her art at the Warrensburg First Fridays Art Walks.
"Definitely experience always helps," she said. "The first time I did a show, for one I was super nervous which made it really hard. I also didn't have hardly as many products to have out on display so there weren't a lot of options. Having more options gives people a lot of different things to look at and they might see something that they're more likely to like."

She said her favorite piece is a new one she did that is an alpaca with a unicorn horn that is eating an ice cream bar while her best seller from PCC is patches of Happy Crit and Sad Fail 20-sided dice.
The lines for celebrity guests such as Jason Momoa and Alan Tudyk were massive over the weekend, but for Stone the Planet Comicon experience goes in a different direction.
"A lot of people get excited about celebrities but for me it's more about artists," she said. "I love getting to meet other artists. It seems silly because of course I could make my own art but I buy other people's art all the time. Sometimes it's really exciting to see other artists I've followed online for a long time and I actually get to meet them in person."

A virtual assistant (like Google Home or Alexa) can make your grocery list, tell you the weather and play songs on command. However, when your personal robot lets in a criminal, you want to know how it happened. Since these devices work through voice activation, hackers take advantage of this by creating apps that sound similar to others you may requesting via voice commands.
Once allowed into your home, they have access to the audio recording capabilities of the Alexa, Google Home or Apple Home Pod devices. Additionally, researchers are finding criminals can set up triggers by any audio stream that has been tampered with to initiate voice commands without you ever knowing.
Aside from the breach of privacy, hackers will have access to vital information such as health information and financial accounts. For example, when you ask the device to open your account information at "ABC Bank," it could trigger an opening of the app "ABD Bank," which was purposely given a name similar to a voice command you make, and is controlled by hackers.
While the creators of these devices have yet to come up with a solution to voice squatting, there are some things you can do to lessen your concern instead of getting rid of the device altogether.
Don't conduct any financial business on the device.
Update your microphone settings. You can set only certain applications to have access to the microphone. You can turn off the microphone altogether when having private conversations.
Keep the device clean. Just as you would on your computer or phone, be sure to clear out your voice history.
As an organization, only allow the device in rooms where it cannot possibly be a threat to you or your clients.

Trade Tariffs Halt U.S. Small Manufacturers' Hiring, Investments
The ripple effect of the U.S. administration's trade tariffs has struck the country's small manufacturers, Reuters reports, as they scale back hiring and investments due to rising import costs.
Following President Donald Trump's implementation of steel and aluminum import taxes in March, Reuters began interviews with several small- to mid-sized manufacturing executives to hear their thoughts.
The report, released May 4, revealed a chain reaction of sorts: The tariffs are increasing raw material costs for manufacturers and creating supply delays, leaving manufacturers unable to compete with foreign companies. Now, manufacturers are proceeding with caution before making any decisions about hiring new employees or investing in future projects.
Among Reuters' interviewees was president Mike Schmitt, of the metal fabrication company Metalworking Group in Ohio, who said that the company was hoping to spend roughly half a million dollars on equipment and new hires in 2018. However, contracts were repriced and renegotiated after the material price hike, so the plans were pushed back to 2019.
"While these manufacturers lauded the administration's push to make U.S. businesses globally competitive through measures such as the tax overhaul and a deregulation drive," the report said, "they complained that the steel and aluminum tariffs along with the escalating trade spat with China were undercutting those benefits."
The latest results from the CIBZ Small Business Employment Index (SBEI) concurred with the Reuters report, showing a 0.21% decline in April hires, according to Business Wire. Surveying thousands of companies with 300 or fewer employees in the U.S., the SBEI showed more than a quarter of small businesses decreased their employee count after a significant boost in March hires of about 1.4%.
In a press release, CBIZ Employee Benefits' Executive Vice President Philip Noftsinger said small business hiring usually increases in April.
"Small businesses may be hitting the pause button ahead of seasonal spring hiring," Noftsinger said in the release. "… We'll look toward the later spring months to create any consistent message of a slowdown in the labor market."

Q: How to get selected radio button for each row in a ListView I have a list of students in a ListView for which I want to keep track of attendance (somewhat similar to How to get checked radio button in list view? and Listview with Checkbox,RadioButton,Textview and button not working correctly in android).
When the user hits the submit-button I need to know for each row what the RadioGroup was set to, in order to then save the values back into a database (been using SimpleCursorAdapter so far).
I've looked into SimpleCursorAdapter.getCount() and RadioGroup.getCheckedRadioButtonId() to use a for-loop to traverse the list but still can't figure out how to get a hold of the RadioGroup for each list item.
listView.getAdapter().getItem() ?
Could you please point me in the right direction? I'm not trying to do anything when the user checks an item or when the state of a button is changed.

A: ok.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
     final int child=listView.getChildCount();
      for(int i=0;i<child;i++) {
        if(listView.childAt(i) instanceof RadioGroup){
         RadioGroup rg=(RadioGroup)listView.childAt(i);
         int a = rg.getChildCount();
         for(int j=0;j<a;++j) {
            if((RadioButton)rg.getChildAt(j).isChecked()==true) {
           System.out.println("RadioButton At "+j+" Is Selected");}
          }
       }
  }

A: use a viewHolder in your listview

        viewHolder.checkbox.setChecked(list.get(position).isSelected());

        return convertView;
    }
}

A: I also had faced same problem now what should you need to do it

*

*just use getChildCount() on ListView

*Use a loop from for(i=0 upto childoflist)

*Now get child at i th location of listview by using view=listview.getChildAt(i)

*Now you must do some thing like
radiogroup=view.findViewById(R.id.radiogrp)

*Now you have all things then u must do radioButton = (RadioButton)
rgg.findViewById(selectedId);
Here i am attaching my code which is in addition to Akhil Jayakumar code of student list
///ok is your upload button

ok.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
         final int child=listView.getChildCount();
          for(int i=0;i<child;i++) {
            View rgg=listView.getChildAt(i);

    radioGroup = (RadioGroup) rgg.findViewById(R.id.radio);

    int selectedId=radioGroup.getCheckedRadioButtonId();

    radioButton = (RadioButton) rgg.findViewById(selectedId);

  }
}
});

What's New at Microsoft Live Search
Today's post was going to be about finding networking events to attend, however I got a call late Tuesday asking if I'd like to speak to Microsoft's Search team about some new features they are rolling out into UK Live Search, so I thought it would be more timely to post about that. On the networking side of things I only got the call due to somebody I spoke to at a launch party a few weeks ago 🙂 .
The conference call was meant to last 20 minutes but ending up stretching to 40 and I still only got chance to ask a couple of questions. One thing I found with all of the search team members they were exceedingly enthusiastic and committed to the product, Microsoft have been developing their search technologies for 4 years now and feel they are making inwards into the SE market.
There are various new features rolling, some are already available whilst others will be rolled out over the coming weeks
Image & Video Search
The size of the image index has been increased and to make it easy to navigate they have added "infinite scroll" which uses scripting to automatically show more images when you scroll down the page, removing the need for a next page click. There is also a scratch pad where you can save individual images to and a larger image preview when hovering the mouse. There is also a cool preview with video search where it automatically plays 30 seconds of relevent video when you again hover the mouse. Relevet video is algorithmycally calculated, if it's a sports video it will show the part where the crowd is loudest, applause etc.
Microsoft has now added their Virtual Earth technology into Multi Map (their recent acquisition). This now gives Microsoft 45% market share of mapping searches in the UK.
Specialist Content Areas
This is a pretty cool idea, instead of having standard results pages they have developed a system called xRank to show relevent info and rankings depending on what you are searching for. It only works with celebrity searches at the moment and provides a ranking history based on how many times they've been mentioned in the media and searched for. Mariah Carey is currently #1.
Time ran out before we could talk about this, but I've played with Mobile Live and it looks pretty cool. It's a download for your mobile phone but gives you access to maps and useful info like directions to the nearest pub or pizza shop. If your phone has a built in GPS it can also access this to find your current location and provide directions etc.
Cleaner Interface
I don't think I've ever heard anybody get so excited about 4 pixels but by spacing the results more they beleive they given it a cleaner look, so it's not just us normal folk that spend time tweaking by a pixel or two. They've also added a feature similar to Google site links (this was reported a while ago on BlogStorm (though I couldn't find it when searching now)). Search with abbreviations and misspellings (the average UK searcher spells like a 7 year old according to MS research).
All in all it was an interesting conversation but I never got much of a chance to ask questions as time was too short. A lot of the technology is cool but still seems to be playing catch up with the big G, it's taken Microsoft 4 years to get this far, I wonder how many years behind Google they currently are.
I've got to give a thanks to Scott and Patrick for some great questions I would of liked to have answered if time allowed, maybe next time.
Filed Under: Miscellaneous 6 Comments
David at DavidNordmark.com says:
The problem with Microsoft is that they just don't innovate the way Google does. If you're always playing catch up, how are you ever going to pass anyone? Despite these positive steps, Google 's still the king of search, and will remain so for the foreseeable future.
Interesting. Like you, however, I wish they would catch up with Google – not only from the search perspective but from the ad perspective also (I realise its extremely unfashionable to admit to this, but I have a great great of respect for MS).
I have a lot of respect for Microsoft too. They're a great company, but they're in tough against Google. It just seems that Google has a better sense of itself and what it's doing than Microsoft in the internet age. When Microsoft was just starting out, Bill Gates had a vision of a computer sitting on every desk running Microsoft Software. It was that vision that propelled them to the success they had. They just don't seem to have that same kind of vision now when it comes to the internet.
Truthfully speaking I don't believe they're behind Google at all in implementation of technology and UI. They may in fact be ahead. However, in relevance and index quality they are behind, and that's why they will stay behind in market share as well
Chris Guthrie says:
Microsoft will never catch Google.
Google is in the same position that Microsoft is for operating systems.
If you want to search for something only you turn to Google. If you want to run a computer you need Microsoft. (Yah yah… there are Macs but how much market share do they have?)
That's my prediction.

Now that the winter has melted into spring, it means blossoming trees, flowering plants and sudden downpours of rain. That's right, March, April and May make up the British rainy season, meaning you can expect more frequent showers all over the country.
With rain comes more dangerous roads, so there is no better time to brush up on your driving techniques and read some advice about how to stay safe on the roads this spring.
The general advice is to avoid driving in heavy rain if possible, but if circumstances mean you must get in your car and drive, here is a list of some of the things you should be doing to keep you and your passengers safe.
Windshield wipers – Before you set off, you should make sure that your windshield wipers are working properly. You don't want to be caught in the rain with wipers that can't clean your windshield. So, make sure yours are functional and clean, so they'll do their job when you need them.
Headlights – Another essential part of your vehicle, particularly in rainy weather, is your headlights. Your headlights must be working so that drivers can see you in the rain when there is low visibility.
Tyres – When driving in rain, or driving at all, your tyres are incredibly important. They are the only thing between your car and the road and play a huge part in how quickly your car is able to brake, especially in wet weather. Having high-quality tyres from trusted brands like Bridgestone means your tyres will have quality grip performance, meaning the tyres can disperse water efficiently, helping you to brake. Check that your tyre tread depth is above 1.6mm, but remember, just because a tyre tread depth is legal it does not mean it is safe. Tyre tread depths of 3mm or higher perform much better in rain, compared to the legal limit.
The air pressure of your tyres also effects how easy is it for your car to break in wet weather because underinflation is a major contributor to aquaplaning. So, checking your tyres have the correct amount of pressure before driving in the rain is essential for safety.
As well as ensuring that your equipment is working well, there are also numerous driving techniques you should adopt to make your driving safer in the rain. Most people drive simply out of habit, and they don't think about adjusting their thinking and staying alert when weather conditions are more severe. Following some of these tips will help you to change that.
Keep a Safe Distance – When driving, you should always keep a safe distance between yourself and the car in front of you, roughly two car lengths is recommended. But, when it's raining, keeping a safe distance is all the more important because your stopping distance is severely affected in wet weather.
Avoid Heavy Braking – Heavy breaking is widely known as one of the biggest causes of aquaplaning. So, when you're driving in rain, it is important to ensure you brake within plenty of time so that you avoid braking too heavily.
Learn About Aquaplaning – Should you find that your car does aquaplane, you will want to know what to do. You can do everything in your power to avoid aquaplaning in the first place, but being aware of all of the safety techniques for dealing with it if it does occur, may save yourself from an accident.
To recap a little, aquaplaning is when a layer of water builds up between your tyres and the road. This means the tyre cannot grip the road, causing lack of traction and control of the vehicle. Signs that your vehicle is aquaplaning are your engine becoming louder, the steering feeling light or the back end of the car drifting. The important thing to remember when this happens is to not panic. All you can do is ease off the accelerator, straighten the steering wheel and don't hit the brakes hard. Also, don't forget, your tyres will play an important part in whether your vehicle can resist aquaplaning.
Slow Down – Watching your speed in wet conditions will help you to avoid aquaplaning and any road accidents. It is important to be more cautious in wet conditions because it will affect how your car grips the road.
Consider Other Drivers – When you're driving it is always important to consider the drivers around you, but this is even more important when weather conditions make accidents more likely.
Grip the Wheel – When you get used to driving, it is easy to let bad habits creep in. But weather conditions that make the roads more dangerous should remind you to adopt best practises such as gripping the wheel in the ten to two position.
Avoid Puddles – Driving too fast through deep water can cause serious damage to your vehicle. Not to mention that splashing pedestrians by driving through a puddle can result in a fine. This is why it is best to avoid driving through puddles all together if possible.
There are many techniques and tips you can adopt to ensure you're driving as safely as you can in the rain. But, what plays a huge part in your ability to drive safely is your tyres. At Asda Tyres, you can get premium tyres such as the Bridgestone range for low, Asda prices, should you need to replace yours in preparation for the rainy season.


Candida spp. is the vital pathogen involved in mycotic mastitis of cows. However the epidemiology and infection of Candida species in mycotic mastitis of cow in Ningxia province of China has not been explored. In the present study, the epidemiology, antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence-related genes of non-albicans Candida (NAC) species were investigated.
A total of 482 milk samples from cows with clinical mastitis in four herds of Yinchuan, Ningxia were collected and used for the isolation and identification of mastic pathogens by phenotypic and molecular characteristics, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry. The antimicrobial susceptibility to antifungal agents was also determined by a disk diffusion assay. The presence of virulence-related genes was determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
A total of 60 isolates from nine different Candida species were identified from 256 (60/256, 23.44%) milk samples. The most frequently identified species in cows with clinical mastitis groups were Candida krusei (n = 14) and Candida parapsilosis (n = 6). Others include Candida lipolytica, Candida lusitaniae, Cryptococcus neoformans. But no Candida albicans was identified in this study. Interestingly, All C. krusei isolates (14/14) were resistant to fluconazole, fluorocytosine, itraconazole and ketoconazole, 2 out of 14 C. krusei were resistant to amphotericin, and 8 out of the 14 were resistant to nystatin. Similarly, all six C. parapsilosis isolates were resistant to fluorocytosine, but susceptible to fluconazole, ketoconazole and nystatin; two of the six were resistant amphotericin and itraconazole. Molecularly, all of the C. parapsilosis isolates carried eight virulence-related genes, FKS1, FKS2, FKS3, SAP1, SAP2, CDR1, ERG11 and MDR1. All of the C. krusei isolates contained three virulence-related genes, ERG11, ABC2 and FKS1.
These data suggested that Candida species other than C. albicans played a pathogenic role in mycotic mastitis of cows in Yinchuan, Ningxia of China. The high incidence of drug-resistant genes in C. parapsilosis and C. krusei also highlighted a great concern in public and animal health in this region.
Cow mastitis is a disease caused by infections of a variety of microorganisms, which causes large economical looses and damages to the breeding industry by decreasing milk productivity and increasing costs of antibiotic treatments and culling . In most cases, fungal infections of the mammary gland are mostly caused by yeast, the main genus of which is Candida . Mastitis infections caused by fungi of the Candida genus have long been known in animals, and Candida-caused mycotic mastitis was firstly described by Fleischer in 1930 . In this regard, Candida species are considered as opportunistic pathogens that colonize the cow udder. In addition, the harness and abuse of antibacterial agents, and treatments of contaminated antibiotic solutions, as well as duct, or other materials brought in contact with the mammary gland also favor yeast colonization in cow udders .
Recently, a large number of virulent factors have been found in C. parapsilosis and C. krusei originated from cow mastitis, including the Fksp subunits of the β-1,3-D-glucan synthase enzyme (FKS1, FKS2, and FKS3), aspartyl proteinases (SAPP1 and SAPP2), the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters, Candida drug resistance gene 1 (CDR1), major facilitator superfamily (MFS) transporter multiple drug resistance gene 1 (MDR1), 14α-demethylases (ERG11), efflux pump transporters (ABC1 and ABC2). These factors favor the survival and growth of Candida spp. in the mammary gland of cows.
The dairy industry is a predominant economics in Ningxia, a province in Western China. The mastitis of cows causes a significant economic loss in this region every year. It has been well documented that mycotic mastitis is an important causation of economic loss to the dairy industry, however the epidemiology of pathogens may vary in different areas. In this respect, there is a paucity of information about antimicrobial resistance and virulent factors of C. parapsilosis and C. krusei isolates in Ningxia of China, the aim of the present study is therefore to interrogate the epidemiology of fungal infection, and the antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence-related genes of Candida spp. in Yinchuan, Ningxia of China.
This study was submitted to and approved by the Ethics Committee of Animal Study in Ningxia University. A total of 482 milk samples were collected from the cows with clinical mastitis, which originated from four herds in Yinchuan of Ningxia province, China. Clinical mastitis was defined by swelling, reduced milk flow, and abnormal milk appearance (watery to viscous with clots varying from gray-white to yellowish). Additionally, other signs of infection such as fever, inappetence, ataxia, and depression were also considered. The samples were first plated onto the Sabouraud dextrose broth and incubated at 37 °C for 48 h. The cultures were identified by morphological characteristics (formation of chlamydoconidium, pseudohyphae and germinal tube development), Gram staining, biochemical tests (growth in the presence of 0.1% cyclohexamide (SigmaTM), acidic pH tolerance, urea hydrolysis and carbohydrates assimilation and/or fermentation) and CHROMagar Candida culture . All presumptive Candida species isolates were further confirmed by Matrix- assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) (VITEK® MS, BioMerieux, France).
The antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by disk diffusion method according to the guideline of the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute for antifungal susceptibility [6, 7]. A total of six antimicrobial agents were used to evaluate the antimicrobial resistance of the isolates, which included fluorocytosine (1 μg/disk), itraconazole (10 μg/disk), ketoconazole (15 μg/disk), fluconazole (25 μg/disk), nystatin (50 μg/disk), amphotericin (10 μg/disk). Results were recorded as resistant, intermediate and sensitive. The C. parapsilosis ATCC 22019 strain and C. krusei ATCC 6258 strain were used as references for C. parapsilosis strain and C. krusei, respectively.
The presence of virulence-related genes in C. parapsilosis and C. krusei isolates was detected by a PCR assay. The genes of interest, primer sequences, and expected size of fragment of PCR products were given in Tables 1 and 2. The PCR reactions were performed in a final volume of 25 μL of reaction mixture consisted of 50 ng of genomic DNA, 20 pmol of each primer, and 12.5 μL of 2× Taq PCR MasterMix containing 0.1 U of Taq polymerase/μL, 0.5 mM dNTP each, 20 mM Tris-HCl/pH 8.3, 100 mM KCl, 3 mM MgCl2 (Tiangen Biotech, Beijing, China). The cycling conditions were as following: an initial denaturation at 94 °C for 3 min; 30 cycles of denaturation at 94 °C for 30 s, annealing at distinct temperature (Tables 1 and 2) for 30 s, and primer extension at 72 °C for 1 min; and a final extension at 72 °C for 6 min.
Total of 256 pathogenic yeasts were isolated from 482 milk samples collected from cows with clinical mastitis (256/482, 53.1%) in Yinchuan of Ningxia province. Among them, 60 (60/256, 23.44%) were identified in nine of Candida species, in which the C. krusei (23.33%, 14/60) and C. parapsilosis 10% (6/60) were two of the most frequent Candida species. In addition, 16.66% isolates (10/60) were classified as Candida-like species. Other identified Candida species included Candida lipolytica (5/60, 8.33%), Candida lusitaniae (5/60, 8.33%), Candida rugosa (4/60, 6.67%), Trichosporon mucoides (4/60, 6.67%), Candida sphaerica (3/60, 5%), Candida tropicalis (3/60, 5%) and Candida utilis (3/60, 5%).
CHROMagar Candida is a differential culture medium that allows selective isolation of yeasts and simultaneously identifies colonies of C. albicans, C. krusei, and other Candida spp. Results of this study confirm the accuracy of CHROMagar in providing a presumptive identification of C. krusei and C. parapsilosis, which was consistent with Odds and Bernaerts study . These results of the preliminary identification on the CHROMagar Candida were agree with those by MALDI-TOF MS. C. krusei is the only species which grows on Sabouraud's dextrose agar as spreading colonies with a matt or a rough whitish yellow surface, in contrast to the convex colonies of other Candida spp. All 14 isolates of C. krusei tested formed colonies after 48 h of incubation at 37 °C on CHROMagar Candida that were typically pale pink, large, rough, flat, and spreading with broad white edges (Fig. 1a). Unlike C. krusei, all 6 isolates of C. parapsilosis formed white or faint yellow, small, papillae, smooth colony (Fig. 1b). In addition, C. krusei and C. parapsilosis are both usually found in two basic morphological forms, as yeast and pseudohyphae (Fig. 1a' and b'). Both were frequently present simultaneously in growing cultures and may not be separated easily.
The antimicrobial susceptibility test demonstrated that C. krusei and C. parapsilosis isolates from cow mastitis cases in Yinchuan of Ningxia province had a variable degree of resistance to the antimicrobials (Fig. 2a and b, Tables 3 and 4). C. krusei isolates were respectively resistant to fluconazole (14/14, 100%), fluorocytosine (14/14, 100%), itraconazole (14/14, 100%), ketoconazole (14/14, 100%), amphotericin (2/14, 14.3%), and nystatin (8/14, 57.1%) (Table 3). C. parapsilosis isolates were respectively resistant to fluorocytosine (6/6, 100%), amphotericin (2/6, 33.3%), itraconazole (2/6, 33.3%), but susceptible to fluconazole (6/6, 100%), ketoconazole (6/6, 100%), nystatin (6/6, 100%) (Table 4).
Three virulence-related genes in C. krusei and eight virulence-related genes in C. parapsilosis isolates were determined by PCR in the present study. The results indicated that all (14/14, 100%) C. krusei isolates contained the ERG11 gene, 12 out of 14 (85.7%) C. krusei isolates were positive in ABC2 and FKS1 genes, but no ABC1 gene was detected in these C. krusei isolates (Fig. 3). All (6/6, 100%) C. parapsilosis isolates carried the FKS1, FKS2, FKS3, CDR1, ERG11, SAPP1 and SAPP2 genes; 4 out of the 6 (66.7%) of C. parapsilosis isolates contained MDR1 gene (Fig. 4).
In this study, Candida species of yeasts were isolated in the 23.44% (60/256) of all samples analyzed. This rate is a marginally higher than the rates reported in Turkey were 12.7% , 17.7% ; the rates reported in Brazil were 17.3% , 12.8% ; and the rate reported in Slovenia was 7.5% . C. krusei was the predominant species isolated in this study, which was 23.33% (14/60) of the Candida isolates from those with clinical mastitis. However, there is some discrepancy among rates that were also reported by others. Pengov et al. reported a 34% , De&Marin et al. reported a 44.5% , and Sartori et al. reported a 34.6%  of C. krusei isolates from cows with mastitis. Their data reported a higher frequency of C. krusei infection than findings in this report. However, the rate of C. krusei isolates of our finding was higher than others. Ruz-Peres et al. reported a 18.18% , ErbaŞ et al. reported a 17.4% , Ksouri et al. reported a 15.57% , Krukowski et al. reported a 15.5% , and Eldesouky et al. reported a 12.2% of C. krusei isolates in cow mastitis .
C. parapsilosis was the second most frequent Candida species in this study. Although often being considered less virulent than C. albicans, C. parapsilosis is the Candida species with the largest increase in clinical incidence in human beings in recent decades. In animals, C. parapsilosis are also of great importance in veterinary medicine because of their ability to infect many animal species, including cows [14, 17, 18]. Indeed, many studies have described the isolation of C. parapsilosis from milk samples with a frequency varied from 1.7% to up to 25.4%, depending on the sanitary condition and environmental factors [10, 11, 15, 19].
The discrepancy in determination rates of Candida species among different geographic regions might be a consequence effect of several factors, such as the abuse of intramammary antibiotic treatment or the use of dairy farm made antibiotic infusions for mastitis treatments , yeast contaminated food or environment , inadequate sanitary practices of milking procedures, and the natural resistance to fluconazole of C. krusei [21, 22]. The relative cell-surface hydrophobicity (CSH) of C. parapsilosis, adherence to host tissues and plastic surfaces such as milkers or other prosthetic materials [23–25], and the presence of pathogenic strains of C. krusei might also contribute the high rate of C. krusei and C. parapsilosis in milk samples of cow mastitis .
Of note, there was no C. albicans was identified in this study. This result was in accordance with the report by ErbaŞ et al. . Although C. albicans was considered to be the most frequent cause of fungemia, a number of reports have documented infections caused by C. parapsilosis, C. krusei and other NAC species , suggesting that the pathogenic role of opportunistic NAC species in this disease. Therefore, it is a necessity to pay more attention in NAC species in order to establish the possible role in mycotic mastitis in the region of Yinchuan, Ningxia of China.
In this study, the antifungal resistance was also investigated. Notably, all of the six C. parapsilosis isolates (100%) were resistant to fluorocytosine, and all 14 of C. krusei isolates (100%) were resistant to ketoconazole, fluconazole, itraconazole and fluorocytosine. This finding was consistent with a study by Sonmez et al. , but was different from reports by others [29–31]. Of interest, these agents are the primary agents against the infection of Candida species. It has been reported that the resistance of C. albicans to fluorocytosine was up to 10–30%, and the incidence of drug resistant NAC species was increased [10, 28]. For example, the natural or acquired resistance to fluconazole was confirmed in C. krusei and C. glabrata . Our finding in C. krusei also supported the results reported in literatures. It was worthy to note that C. krusei and C. parapsilosis isolates from cow mastitis cases in Ningxia region were more resistant to antifungal agents. It is strongly recommended that fluorocytosine, and other azole antifungal agents should not be used in the treatment with NAC species in dairy cows in Ningxia province of China, owing to the high drug resistance of these Candida species. Interestingly, these isolates were from animals that had not been treated with antifungal agents, suggesting that animal isolates were more exposed to anthropic environmental selective pressures, such as the use of azole antifungals in agricultural practices . Therefore, a special attention must be paid to dairy products for monitoring the antifungal susceptibility of Candida spp. and other fungi recovered from animals is extremely important, since they may act as reservoirs of strains causing human disease and may present a risk for immunocompromised patients .
Previous reports indicated that a large number of virulent factors have been determined in C. krusei and C. parapsilosis, including the β-1,3-D-glucan synthase enzyme, aspartyl proteinases, the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter, major facilitator superfamily (MFS) transporter, the zinc cluster transcription factor,14α-demethylase, efflux transporters. In the present study, we also observed that most of the C. krusei isolates harbored ERG11, ABC2 and FKS1 genes, and most of the C. parapsilosis isolates harbored genes of FKS1, FKS2, FKS3, SAPP1, SAPP2, ERG11, CDR1 and MDR1. The Fksp subunits of the β-1,3-D-glucan synthase enzyme are the target of echinocandins  and are encoded by the FKS1,FKS2, and FKS3 genes. Many reports indicated that a reduced-susceptibility (RES) to echinocandin was associated with mutations in two conserved regions of fks1 and fks2, and amino acid substitutions in the proteins encoded by these genes were observed within two or three hot spot (HS) regions on each gene [36–38]. In the present study, FKS1, FKS2, and FKS3 genes were detected in all C. parapsilosis field isolates. 85.7% (12/14) of C. krusei isolates were positive in FKS1 gene. Further studies are needed to confirm the mutation in hot spot (HS) regions on FKS1, FKS2 genes of C. krusei and C. parapsilosis, in order to elucidate the capability of the M27-A3 guidelines to detect the resistance to echinocandin. The secretion of aspartyl proteinases (Saps) has been considered as important elements of virulence for C. albicans , and it is also recognized as virulence factors for C. parapsilosis . In C. parapsilosis, SAPP1, and SAPP2 are two annotated secreted aspartyl proteinase genes [41–43]. These enzymes are involved in providing nutrients for pathogen propagation, tissue colonization and further tissue invasion by rupturing host mucosal membranes . In this study, 100% of C. parapsilosis isolates were found to carry SAPP1 and SAPP2 genes. This result was in agreement with previous reports .
The common mechanisms of Candida resistant to azoles include changes in target enzyme and upregulation of multidrug resistance protein (MDR). The target enzyme of azoles is 14α-lanosterol demethylase (14-DM), which is responsible for the production of an ergosterol precursor and is encoded by the gene ERG11. In C. albicans and C. parapsilosis, the efflux pump genes associated with azole resistance include CDR1, CDR2, and MDR1 . However, the drug-resistant genes in C. krusei are involved in ABC1 and ABC2 [46, 47]. The results in this study also showed that 100% of C. parapsilosis isolates contained the CDR1 and ERG11 genes, and 66.7% of C. parapsilosis isolates contained the MDR1 gene. 100% (14/14) of C. krusei isolates contained the ERG11 gene, and 85.7% (12/14) of C. krusei isolates contained the ABC2 gene, despite the ABC1 gene was not detect in C. krusei. This finding was in line with previous studies in humans by He et al. that ABC2p was suggested to play a more important role in the resistance of C. krusei to azoles, instead of ABC1p .
Taken together, it was demonstrated that C. krusei and C. parapsilosis isolates from mycotic mastitis were present in Yinchuan of Ningxia with a potential of multidrug resistance. Further studies are needed to confirm mutations in ERG11, gain-of-function mutations in transcription factors, such as multidrug resistance regulator 1 (MRR1) and transcriptional activator of CDR gene 1 (TAC1), and the overexpression of these genes to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of resistance which caused by C. krusei and C. parapsilosis isolates from mycotic mastitis presented in Yinchuan, Ningxia of China.
A total of 60 isolates obtained from clinical mastitis milk samples in Yinchuan, Ningxia province of China were identified as Candida species according to phenotypic characteristics and MALDI-TOF MS. The most frequent Candida species found in this study was C. krusei, followed by C. parapsilosis. Other non-albicans Candida (NAC) species were also found in a low frequency. There was no Candida albicans was isolated in this study. According to results of this study, NAC may play an important pathogenic role in mycotic mastitis in dairy farms of Yinchuan region in Ningxia province of China. The C. krusei and C. parapsilosis displayed a strong antifungal resistance with drug-resistant genes. Most of C. krusei isolates harbored the ERG11, ABC2 and FKS1 genes, and most of the C. parapsilosis isolates harbored the FKS1, FKS2, FKS3, SAPP1, SAPP2, ERG11, CDR1 and MDR1 genes.

Addressing New and Evolving Community Needs
Children, youth and young families represent almost half of our community. The community is also spreading out, with nearly half of the local Jewish population living outside of Vancouver, often in areas beyond the reach of most Jewish community institutions. Jewish Federation is planning strategically, setting priorities, and collaborating with our partners to address the evolving needs of our community.
Connect Me In
This initiative to engage Jews living in the regional communities continues to grow and change. This past year, we saw the expansion of the Langley Hebrew School and the New Westminster Adult Education series. In addition to their regular bi-weekly classes, the Langley Hebrew School also hosted successful Hanukkah and Purim events, as well as a Tu b'Shvat event with PJ Library. Tweens programming in the Tri-Cities continues to grow, with monthly activities coordinated by Habonim Dror and held at Burquest. We were delighted to welcome and help the Gibsons community to provide Jewish programming for their children and families this year. New initiatives that are currently underway include a Hebrew school in the Tri-Cities, women's programming in Burnaby-New Westminster, and Judaism Through the Arts in Squamish. One of the positive outcomes of this initiative is that we are able to connect other Vancouver based Jewish organizations that are interested in offering programs and services to these emerging Jewish communities. This past year, both the Jewish Film Centre and Jewish Family Services began offering programs in Port Moody, Maple Ridge, and Langley.
The Jewish Food Security Task Force completed its work in late 2018. The task force was a joint initiative of Jewish Federation and Jewish Family Services. Co-chaired by Renée Katz and Stan Shaw, the task force's mandate was to think beyond existing programs and services to come up with a comprehensive food security strategy. The task force examined best practices in other jurisdictions, heard from a variety of community stakeholders, met with food security experts, and considered a range of potential strategies to increase the number of community members who have access to nutritious and affordable food and to diversify the options available to achieve this goal. A key theme arising out of the task force report is the need to address food security in a comprehensive, non-stigmatizing manner that engages a wide variety of community members from youth to seniors. An important outcome of this work was the added value of bringing two community organizations together to undertake this work.
As our community becomes increasingly diverse, off-the-shelf programming is no longer effective. Each community has its own interests and needs and seeks out Jewish community connections in different ways. Recognizing and respecting each community's uniqueness has defined our approach to our work with new and emerging communities. This past year, we also starting working with another community, Russian speaking community members who settled here some years ago but have not always found a comfortable place among existing programs. Jewish and Modern (JAM) is a grassroots initiative focused on Jewish programming with a Russian twist. In its first six months, the group organized two movie nights, an adult education series, and a genealogy seminar on finding your Russian-Jewish roots.
This year saw growth in both PJ Library's numbers and programs. More than 1,000 local children ages six months to eight years old now receive high-quality, age-appropriate Jewish children's books and music on a monthly basis — for free. Older siblings can now receive books through PJ Our Way, a program new to Canada and fuelled by PJ Library, where children ages nine to 11 years old can choose their own Jewish-themed chapter book every month. Children can log in to the PJ Our Way website, which provides them a safe and engaging online community where they can write reviews, take polls, and watch videos made by other kids.
We continued to offer high-quality and engaging programming, including Ride the Rosh Hashanah Train, which brought together over 400 people to join PJ Library and seven other local organizations at Stanley Park for a pre-Rosh Hashanah celebration. For many families PJ Library is their first point of Jewish contact, and this event helped families discover and connect with myriad other community resources and organizations available

Chelsea's Rudiger to miss rest of season with knee injury

Antonio Rudiger will miss the rest of Chelsea's season due to a knee injury.
The Germany defender is now due to have an operation in Italy, having limped out of the Blues' 1-1 Premier League draw at Manchester United on Sunday.
Rudiger's loss, confirmed by the club on Tuesday, will prove a blow to Chelsea's bid for both a top-four Premier League finish and Europa League glory.
Fourth-placed Chelsea sit two points ahead of Arsenal with two league games to play, with the London rivals going head-to-head for the final Champions League qualification berth.
The Blues will face Eintracht Frankfurt in Thursday's Europa League semi-final first leg before hosting Watford on Sunday in their final home league game of the campaign. Maurizio Sarri's men will take on Eintracht in the return leg at Stamford Bridge on Thursday week, before closing their domestic season with a trip to Leicester.
But now they must do so without key centre back Rudiger, with his absence likely to be covered by Andreas Christensen.

Antonio Rudiger compared Maurizio Sarri's methods as Chelsea head coach to a school teacher.
The 60-year-old Italian's future as Blues boss is under scrutiny following humiliating losses at Bournemouth and Manchester City - the latter 6-0 defeat Chelsea's worst in 28 years - and faces a trying period.
Supporters' scepticism was voiced with an expletive-laden critique of 'Sarri-ball' - the possession-based style Sarri favours - in Monday's FA Cup loss to Manchester United.
And Sarri bemoaned a lack of time to mastermind an upturn in fortunes, with Thursday's visit of Malmo in the Europa League followed by City in Sunday's Carabao Cup final and Tottenham in the Premier League on February 27.
Sarri has introduced training on a match day, with Germany defender Rudiger downplaying the physical effects of the additional session, while admitting to the psychological challenge.
Rudiger said: "It's not like we are doing box to box runs. It's not physical. It's just the tactical things he likes to do.
"It's the same if you sit in the school the whole time listening to someone. Of course, sometimes, it gets mental, but at the end of the day you have to do your job."
Rudiger insists Chelsea cannot look beyond Malmo - the Blues hold a 2-1 first-leg advantage in their last-32 tie - but admits Sarri's Chelsea face a day of reckoning at Wembley on Sunday.
The defender said: "First of all, let's speak about the game tomorrow because it's important for us to stay in this competition and fight to win it.
"Then, on Sunday, a big game against City at Wembley. That will show the truth. That will show our way this season.
"The truth in terms of keeping up with opponents like City, and also Liverpool and Tottenham.
"You always play for your manager, but you want results. You want to win. No player on earth likes to have the kind of run we've had."
