Even if you have no interest in science or medical research, these are some very interesting images, read below to learn more about them.
If you ever wondered what “medical research” means, here is one example.
(Keep in mind that I am not a scientist myself, so I will keep any technical references to third party sources).
X-ray Crystallography – Wikipedia
“X-ray crystallography is a method of determining the arrangement of atoms within a crystal, in which a beam of X-rays strikes a crystal and diffracts into many specific directions. From the angles and intensities of these diffracted beams, a crystallographer can produce a three-dimensional picture of the density of electrons within the crystal. From this electron density, the mean positions of the atoms in the crystal can be determined, as well as their chemical bonds, their disorder and various other information.”
To attempt to put this in very simple terms. A scientist will research a particular protein (perhaps to develop a drug that can interact with it). As a part of this research, it is helpful to “see” what it looks like, they are very complicated 3-dimensional structures. A technique was developed that shoots x-rays through a sample of the proteins, and these x-rays bounce off of them in different directions. Mathematically it is possible to reverse the information collected to “see” what this protein looks like. Proteins are extremely small, so this special technique was developed. That’s about all I can intelligently say at this time without making things up 🙂 If you are curious you can read more on Wikipedia. Many of the software programs that are used to do research in this way are freely available “open-source” applications that will run on Macintosh, Windows and Linux/Unix operating systems. Coot, CCP4 and PyMOL are a few examples.

Why This Recipe Works
For our stuffed clams recipe, we opted to steam the clams in a fragrant mixture of white wine, shallots, and red pepper flakes just until they opened. After removing the clams, we reduced the liquid to concentrate the flavors, then mixed it with butter, minced roasted bell pepper, and herbs to create a compound butter. We removed one half of each shell from the cooked clams, loosened the tender clam meat from the shell, topped the clam with butter, and sprinkled a small measure of fresh bread crumbs on top. A few minutes under the broiler browned the bread crumbs and completed our stuffed clams recipe.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The SWAT team with the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office is responding to a scene in the 15000 block of Shellcracker Road.
Lt. Mike Powers tells us a couple got into an argument over night that turned violent.
The woman involved alleges her boyfriend became suicidal after the argument threatening to kill himself. She also told police her boyfriend became, "really violent" and allegedly fired a gun several times into the roof of their mobile home.
The woman was able to escape the home and called police from a different location.
When police arrived at the scene the boyfriend was apparently asleep. He gave himself up without incident and is now in custody.
At this time the man's name is not being released. It is also unclear if any charges will be filed in this case.

A pastor was arrested on Thursday evening at his Diamond, East Bank Demerara home, after being accused of rape by a church member, whom he had been counselling.
Stabroek News was reliably informed that up to yesterday afternoon, the man was still in custody.
His accuser told police that the assault occurred last month, when the pastor reportedly invited her to his house for dinner and made sexual advances towards her.
This newspaper was told that the man is likely to be charged soon.
Stabroek News understands that the pastor began providing counselling to the victim in 2015, after her father passed away.

By Jack Elliott Jr./The Associated Press
JACKSON — Across Mississippi, the highway system is dotted with signs honoring athletes, civil rights figures, military heroes and law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty.
More will come this year. The 2013 Legislature authorized at least 12 signs and streamlined the process of honoring fallen members of the Mississippi Highway Patrol.
The Mississippi Department of Transportation is responsible for putting up signs.
The designations are supported by organizations, or local governments or citizens. Lawmakers approve them one-by-one.
House Bill 225, which becomes law July 1, allows the Highway Patrol and MDOT to decide together to name a segment of any public street, road, highway or interstate for a state trooper who had died in the line of duty. Highway Patrol officers who have died in the line of duty since Jan. 1, 1938, would be eligible for a memorial roadway designation.
A distinctive marker will be designed by the Department of Public Safety with help from the Mississippi State Troopers’ Association.
Lawmakers would approve funding for the markers, and DPS also could receive gifts, grants or donations for the makers.
DPS spokesman Warren Strain said the bill allows the Highway Patrol and MDOT to directly address highway memorials.
“We wouldn’t have to go through any process to have these officers memorialized should, God forbid, we have another officer die in the line of duty,” Strain said. “It makes everything more efficient and shows support from the members of the Legislature for these troopers’ families and for law enforcement.”
Thirty-two Highway Patrol officials have died in the line of duty since 1940. A portion of Mississippi Highway 370 was designated in 2011 for state Trooper Steve Hood, who was killed during a chase in 2009.
MDOT officials said the cost of the signs depends on their size and other expenses such as labor. It takes two signs — one at each end of the roadway or bridge.
Some road designations approved by lawmakers this year are:
— A segment of Mississippi Highway 29 in Ellisville for Wyonie “Sonny” Patterson, a retired officer with the Ellisville Police Department and Jones Junior College Police Department. He died in 2012.
— A bridge on Mississippi Highway 15 for state Rep. Billy Bowles, D-Houston. Bowles served 20 years in the Mississippi House, and died in 2012.
— A segment of Mississippi Highway 63 in Greene County for state Sen. George Cecil McLeod Jr., D-Leakesville, who died in 2011.
— A segment of U.S. Highway 184 in Lawrence County as “Lawrence County Veterans Highway.”
— A flyover bridge in Adams County as the “Veterans Memorial Bridge.”
— A section of Mississippi Highways 25 and 15 in Louisville as the “Blue Star Memorial Highway” honoring members of the Armed Forces.
— A segment of Mississippi Highway 6 in Lee County as “Military Order of the Purple Heart Highway.”
— A segment of Mississippi Highway in Lamar County for Tyler R. Kilsby and Leon Sims, two MDOT employees who were killed in 2010 while working on the road.
— A segment of Mississippi Highway 590 in Jones County for Carlos “Coach” McDaniel, recreation director and professor at Jones County Junior College for 32 years. He died in 1999.
— A segment of Mississippi Highway 4 in Prentiss County for Marine Sgt. Jonathan W. Lambert, who died in 2003 from injuries suffered in a Humvee accident in southern Iraq.
— A portion of Interstate 59 in Jones County and Laurel for Arwilla Huff Davison, a longtime Democratic activist.
— A section of Mississippi Highway 6 in Panola County, Mississippi as “Military Order of the Purple Heart Highway.”

If you want to be successful you’re going to have a lot of tough decisions to make, lots of awkward conversations and lots of risks and decisions that take you out your comfort zone.
Now while most people fail to do this as they are too scared, this is just one of the traits that separates YOU the entrepreneur from 99% of other people.
As hard as those decisions or conversations may be, they are probably exactly what is needed to be done.

Can Christians (or Anyone) Manifest Good Things?
The Book of Ecclesiastes states there is nothing new under the sun, and many heresies, sins, false doctrines, and lies get recycled. New age spiritualism is often a combination of bits and pieces of other religions and spiritual practices smashed together.
Manifestation has been gaining in popularity, promising people they can bring into their lives whatever they want in order to create their best possible life, hurt people they don’t like, and increase their material wealth. It is an appealing idea, and one that some people claiming to be Christians have promoted. But it is also a deception.
Manifestation, the act of willing one’s desires into reality, is not found in the Bible, potentially taps into the realm of the demonic, and ultimately allows someone to set themselves up as their own god.
What Does "Manifest" Mean?
From witchcraft, to voodoo, to meditation and chanting, various faiths and religious practices have promised practitioners that through their own actions or force of will, they can bring what they want into reality. Some require exchange of some sort, but manifestation as it has become popular in the 21st century is an exercise of will.
Essentially, in new age spirituality, manifestation is the practice of making one’s desires a reality by practicing focus, affirmation, and clear thinking. Sometimes energy channeling through a medium such as crystals is also involved. Generally, practitioners of this style of manifestation identify as spiritual, but it is often put into the framework of other religions to make it appealing to a wide range of people.
Practitioners claim a wide variety of things can be manifested including:
- Good things for other people
- Bad things for other people
- Desired physical objects (a car, a house, etc)
Manifestation asserts that someone can bend the universe around them to their will. It is important to note they do not assert that one should set a goal for something and then work for it, or ask for something from a deity and have faith it will be answered in the affirmative. The person with the power to make something happen is the individual, and it is through thought and will, not labor or gifting.
Can We Manifest Things by Believing in Them?
Biblically and scientifically speaking, there is nothing to suggest that human beings have the ability to manifest anything. The ability to make things happen in the world through sheer force of will has no scientific backing. It is also not seen as something done in the Bible, or hinted at in the Bible.
What is addressed in the Bible is witchcraft. In witchcraft, someone gives an exchange for something to happen in a supernatural way. Manifestation is similar, except there is no expectation of exchange and it is the power of the individual that brings on the desired change. While they are different, witchcraft and manifestation are a similar type of sin, in which one is setting themselves in the place of God by trying to usurp God’s will and power. The reason the Bible says, “For rebellion is as the sin of divination, and presumption is as iniquity and idolatry” (1 Samuel 15:23a) is because the root of rebellion against God and witchcraft is the desire to exercise one’s will over God’s will.
In the Bible, God makes it clear that He wants to take care of His children, to bless them, and to provide for their needs. He also is clear that He knows what is best for someone, and that sometimes He says no because a request or desire is out of His will, and not in the best interest of the individual. Instead, the Apostle Peter wrote, “Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you,” (1 Peter 5:6). When someone decides to begin manifesting, they are putting their faith in themselves, rather than God, in defiance of what He may want for them.
There may be people who can claim that manifestation worked for them. From a Biblical standpoint, there are couple of explanations for why someone engaging in this practice may be getting what they want. First, they could be faking it. There could be other reasons something is coming to them, and they are crediting it to manifestation. Second, the Bible says that Satan is “the ruler of this world” (John 14:30), and the demons do try to influence people, particularly non-believers. Satan can work in the world because he has some power temporarily, so he could be working in the world to make something manifest to keep that person in delusion.
What Makes Prayer Different from Manifesting?
When someone prays, they are going to God and pairing thanksgiving, worship, and requests in an earnest conversation. It is a relationship, and a Christian is relying on God in His wisdom and power to provide. While it may be difficult to wrestle with, a Christian also needs to be submitted to God if He denies someone something.
In a prayer-based, appropriate relationship with God, people make requests and understand that it may not be God’s will to grant it. Even Jesus said during His earthly ministry, “I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me” (John 5:30). If He does, it is a blessing, and God receives glory because it was done in His power.
Christians are called to have an attitude that is continually being sanctified to be more like Jesus Christ. Paul described Jesus in this way, “Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross” (Philippians 2:5-8). In someone’s prayer life, they are to have this mindset. Jesus submitted His will to the Father. When Christians pray, they rejoice when God grants the request, but ultimately they do not pray only to get what they want.
Manifestation is not a conversation with God; it is self-focused, and is based on the premise that individuals have the power to make things happen in the universe around them through pure will or psychic force or energy. Only God can make something from nothing, and can bend the universe to His will.
Christians should not merely believe that God will always grant them whatever they want. There are false doctrines that teach ideas like “name it and claim it,” visualization, or that if you have faith in God, He will give you any materialistic desire you may want. The Book of Job is an entire book of the Bible that serves as a case study against this idea. The lives of the apostles too. They had faith in Jesus Christ, but all were martyred for their faith, and had to make significant sacrifices.
While one could argue that manifestation is a kind of faith, the faith of a Christian is built on fundamentally different foundations. The basis of manifestation is that a person has the power to make something happen. Christian faith is rooted in the belief that God will fulfill His promises, and that He can do anything, so if it is His will, He will answer prayer in the affirmative; if He answers in the negative, He has another plan.
What Should Christians Do When They Want Something to Happen?
If Christians want something to happen, or they would like something specific in their life, they should go to God in prayer. While someone who has a relationship with God should not be focused just on the things of this world, it is okay to ask for things in this world. Christians can pray for a house or a family, for food, for a car, for a job, for blessings, for the welfare of others, and all the things that someone who believes in manifestation may try to will into their lives.
However, the Apostle James does have an important message to consider when praying, “You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions” (James 4:3). In other words, if Christians are praying for things and God is constantly saying no, it is because they are asking for things that are not in God’s will. Maybe they are asking for something sinful. Maybe God wants to give them something else. Regardless, the point is Christians can find themselves asking for things that are not in God’s will to grant.
It is okay to ask for blessings from the Lord, and to want them. Christians should go the Lord and talk to Him. But be willing to accept that we don’t always get what we want in this life, but there are greater blessings we will enjoy for eternity. Avoid the temptation to try to manifest, as the Bible says Christians should rely on God, walking by faith, and trusting the Lord know best.

Lois Smith, first principal dancer of the National Ballet of Canada, dies at 81
Lois Smith, the first principal ballerina of the National Ballet of Canada, passed away on Saturday at the age of 81 after a lengthy battle with Alzheimer’s. Born in 1929, Smith is a ballet rarity: she began her intensive training at the age of 15 and was taking lead roles in Vancouver’s Theatre Under the Stars only five years later, in 1949. Smith married fellow Canadian dancer David Adams, and both joined the National Ballet in 1951.
Dubbed “Mr. and Mrs. Ballet” by the media, Adams and Smith danced several classic ballets together, including Antony Tudor’s Lilac Garden, Coppélia and Swan Lake. In 1969, Smith opened her own studio, the Lois Smith Dance School, in Toronto. The school eventually became part of the performing arts program at George Brown College, where Smith also served as the head of the dance department between 1979 and 1988.
Karen Kain, current artistic director of the National Ballet of Canada, remembers Smith as a source of inspiration. In a statement, she said:
When I joined the National Ballet in 1969, Lois and her longtime partner David Adams had established a captivating partnership that veteran fans still recall with delight and affection. Lois went on to make substantial contributions in the world of dance as an educator and choreographer. She possessed a beautiful unique talent and will be greatly missed.
Like Kain, Grant State, the National Ballet’s first resident choreographer, was awed by Smith’s natural abilities. He told the Star, “She had a beautiful body, grace, line and poise. She was truly a ballerina from Day 1, a natural; and she loved what she was doing.”

Abstract Share this page
Abstract Alcohol abuse is described as a major cofactor in the development of hepatitis C (HCV) associated liver disease and may play a role in the outcome of interferon-based treatment interventions. The association between HCV viral heterogeneity and alcohol has not been previously described. This study was designed to evaluate the quasispecies nature of the HCV population in patients with compensated and decompensated alcoholic liver disease, to test the hypothesis that alcoholics have greater complexity than matched nonalcoholic controls. A nonisotopic heteroduplex complexity assay (HCA) was first validated by comparison with results of quasispecies complexity determined by subcloning and sequencing of amplicon products from the E2/NS1 hypervariable coding region (HVR). Subsequently, this methodology was applied to comparison of 20 compensated (Child's-Pugh A) and decompensated (Child's-Pugh B/C) alcoholic and 20 nonalcoholic controls. The complexity of the HVR, as well as the 5' Untranslated (5'UT) and the NS5b coding domains were evaluated. The HCA methodology provided a reasonable semiquantitative measure of HCV RNA quasispecies variability compared with subclone sequence homology comparison. Overall, alcoholic patients had greater quasispecies complexity (2.65 bands) than nonalcoholic controls (1.6 bands; P =.01). Subset analysis revealed that compensated alcoholic patients had a mean of 3.1 homo/heteroduplex bands per sample whereas Child's-Pugh B/C alcoholics showed intermediate complexity. A similar quasispecies complexity difference was seen in the 5'UTR, but not in the NS5b coding domain. Quasispecies complexity was not associated with viral titer, complementary DNA concentration, or genotype. The differences in quasispecies complexity may help explain reports of poor interferon responsiveness in alcoholic patients.

Using enzymes as catalysts in biochemical processes requires to bring them into close contact with the substrates to be processed. For oil-soluble substrates and water soluble enzymes this might be achieved by bringing the water and oil phase in a bicontinuous microemulsion into close contact. In this contribution we review two possible scenarios of how the enzyme and the interface influence each other. Small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and neutron spin echo spectroscopy (NSE) act as a microscope to look into the details of the interfacial region of microemulsions.

There are several distinct failure modes for overoptimization of systems on the basis of metrics. This occurs when a metric which can be used to improve a system is used to such an extent that further optimization is ineffective or harmful, and is sometimes termed Goodhart's Law 1. This class of failure is often poorly understood, partly because terminology for discussing them is ambiguous , and partly because discussion using this ambiguous terminology ignores distinctions between different failure modes of this general type. This paper expands on an earlier discussion by Garrabrant , which notes there are "(at least) four different mechanisms" that relate to Goodhart's Law. This paper is intended to explore these mechanisms further, and specify more clearly how they occur. This discussion should be helpful in better understanding these types of failures in economic regulation, in public policy, in machine learning, and in artificial intelligence alignment. The importance of Goodhart effects depends on the amount of power directed towards optimizing the proxy, and so the increased optimizationpower offered by artificial intelligence makes it especially critical for that field. Varieties of Goodhart-like Phenomena As used in this paper, a Goodhart effect is when optimization causes a collapse of the statistical relationship between a goal which the optimizer intends and the proxy used for that goal. The four categories of Goodhart effects introduced by Garrabrant are 1) Regressional, where selection for an imperfect 1 As a historical note, Goodharts Law  as originally formulated states that "any observed statistical regularity will tend to collapse once pressure is placed upon it for control purposes." This has been interpreted and explained more widely, perhaps to the point where it is ambiguous what the term means. Other closely related formulations, such as Campbell's law (which arguably has scholarly precedence) and the Lucas critique, were also initially specific, and their interpretation has also been expanded greatly. Lastly, the Cobra Effect and perverse incentives are often closely related to these failures, and the different effects interact. Because none of the terms were laid out formally, the categories proposed do not match what was originally discussed. A separate forthcoming paper intends to address the relationship between those formulations and the categories more formally explained here.

A lottery is a gambling game in which people pay money for the chance to win prizes. It is usually used to raise funds for public projects.
Basic Elements of a Lottery
A common feature of all lotteries is a means for storing and pooling the identities and amounts staked by bettors. The number of tickets sold is often a factor in the odds of winning.
The amount of money staked is generally based on a percentage of the total amount of prize funds. Depending on the nature of the lottery, the pool of funds can be apportioned between a large number of small prizes or a few larger ones.
Many modern lottery systems use computerized shuffle and draw methods for drawing numbers. These can be a convenient option for bettors who want to avoid the hassle of selecting their own numbers.
Pick Three and Pick Four
The majority of lotteries in the United States and Canada offer a quick variant on traditional lotto games called “Pick Three” or “Pick Four.” This type of game allows players to select three numbers from a pool ranging from 0 to 9, and then play these numbers in any order. This is cheaper than picking your own numbers, but offers a smaller odds of winning.
Richard Lustig, a lottery expert who has taught thousands of people how to win, advises against quick-pick numbers and instead recommends using a technique that involves avoiding groups or numbers that end with the same digit. This strategy has helped him win seven times within two years and is a good choice for those looking to increase their chances of winning the lottery.

Deep watching, as the term hints, is a method to observe changes in a nested object or an array down to the last properties.
Why the Need for Deep Watching and Solution to the Problem
Vue.js is an incredibly powerful library for setting up watchers on objects and their properties. Its deep watch feature is highly intelligent and remarkably useful.
Here are some other libraries that you can use to watch deep properties:
- Mobx: This is a simple and scalable state management library.
- Angular: Angular provides a robust framework for building complex web applications, and it also has built-in utilities for watching object changes.

When video games get film adaptations, I usually cringe and then run as fast as I can in the opposite direction. If director Dan Trachtenberg makes one about Portal, though, I'll be the first one in line to see it. As far as I know, there are no plans for a feature-length movie based on Valve's wildly popular puzzle shooter. However, this short film by Trachtenberg makes a pretty compelling case for one.
Yeah, I'd shell out $10 for 90 minutes of that. Get Ellen McLain, Stephen Merchant, and J.K. Simmons (the voices for GLaDOS, Wheatley, and Cave Johnson, respectively) onboard with the writing team behind the actual game, and you could have the makings of a really good movie.
The short film was shown at the San Diego Comic-Con last month, but this is the first I've heard of it. Let's hope it gets the attention of the folks at Valve. Thanks to Rock, Paper, Shotgun for the tip.

Santa Cruz celebrates his well taken early goal. :: CARLOS MORET
From start to finish Malaga were the better side as they tore apart a Villarreal who are competing for Europa League qualification on Monday evening.
This was the most complete home performance that the Blue and Whites have produced this season as they played with ambition, defensive solidity and intensity. The visitors did not know what hit them as Amrabat, Duda and Santa Cruz bombarded the left flank.
The score was opened after six minutes as Samu showed strength and composure to play in Roque Santa Cruz who took one touch and managed to dink the ball over goalkeeper Asenjo from an almost impossible angle.
Villarreal had a chance to equalise shortly after but Caballero made a smart save from Jérémy Perbet. This was to be their best opportunity of the game as Malaga went through the gears and barely gave the Villarreal defence a chance to breathe. The game was being played in the final third of the pitch with consistent pressure shown by Malaga players to win the ball back.
The return of Duda from suspension was welcomed as the captain controlled the game from midfield and almost managed to score a goal from a corner at the end of the half.
The second period continued in the same way as the first and Duda was close to embarrassing Asenjo after his shot from inside his own half almost caught the on-loan goalkeeper out.
Malaga’s lead was doubled after 53 minutes as Amrabat avoided a tackle and sped down the left flank. He bided his time to place a perfect cross between the legs of Musacchio and into the path of Sergi Darder who guided the ball home.
The game evened out following the goal and Amrabat was once again the centre of attention as he was given an extraordinary red card for making a glasses gesture to referee Álvarez Izquierdo.
Villarreal were unable to break down the ten men of Malaga and the loss has dented their hopes of qualification into Europe. Meanwhile, Malaga now lie in tenth place and are very close to being safe from relegation. The team’s recent form has been key; they now have 21 points in the second half of the league season, one more than the first half having played four matches fewer.
Manager Bernd Schuster was delighted with the performance: “It is among the best home games this year. We fought, we played with intensity, and we also knew how to play good football whilst maintaining possession.”
He also noted the importance of Santa Cruz: “He was amazing. After his injury he has returned like never before and has taken the reins of the team.”

Barbara Paris is featured on six CDs so far: 1992’s Where Butterflies Play, Happy Talk which has her joined by Joe Bonner in a quartet, Day By Day with Nancy Wilson’s rhythm section (pianist Llew Matthews, bassist John B. Williams and drummer Roy McCurdy), a set of duets with Joe Bonner (P.S. I Love You), Swing, Ballads, Blues & Bossa Nova (a sampler drawn from her earlier recordings), and the most recent set, Nine Decades Of Jazz which features her with the Billy Wallace Trio. While she remains based in Colorado, Paris has plans to make return trips to New York, Paris and Japan. She is looking forward to bringing her music to a larger audience. “I have many ideas for future projects and would love to do a big band recording someday. I plan to keep on performing and recording as much as possible. The music has a life of its own and I trust where it will take me.”
When asked to name a few of her favorite jazz moments, she remembers, “One was performing with Joe Pass at Vine Street in Hollywood, sitting in with him and singing ‘If I Should Lose You.’ I felt honored to sing with Junior Mance once and to be asked to sit in by Freddie Hubbard. But my favorite gigs were every night with Joe Bonner.” Other high points included performing at Pumpkin’s in New York with the Jeb Patton Trio, singing on a jazz cruise with some of the sidemen from the Count Basie Orchestra, being featured with a big band at Harlem’s Cotton Club, sit-in-in at Minton’s and the Lenox Lounge, and working in Europe with the help of altoist Claude Tissendier from the Claude Bolling Orchestra and Saxomania.
In 2012, Barbara began a five-year period working with the late pianist Billy Wallace who recorded "Jazz In 3/4 Time" with Max Roach, accompanied Charlie Parker in the 1950s, worked with Joe Williams, Carmen McRae, and Anita O’Day and appeared opposite stage with Billie Holiday. “I loved our musical encounters. Billy knew 5000 tunes in every key. He gave me musical freedom and the rare opportunity to sing such songs as ‘It Shouldn’t Happen To A Dream’ and ‘If You Go Away."
Barbara considers her main musical influences to be Lil Green, Billie Holiday, Etta Jones, Shirley Horn, Sarah Vaughan and her brother and father although she is inspired by many different artists.
Born in Denver, Barbara remembers hearing Nat King Cole, Dinah Washington, Mel Torme and Frank Sinatra from an early age. Her father always sang and she did the same. “Before I could even speak, I could sing little rhymes and songs that he sang to me. Growing up I listened constantly to the radio and one of my friends later said that I knew every word to every song played on the radio.” She performed with her gospel church choir, played violin, took piano lessons, and started playing the guitar when she was 15. Barbara performed folk music as a teenager. Having worked at a jazz supper club found that “while I loved folk music and its acoustic quality, I gravitated to jazz which was more gratifying."
After graduating from high school when she was 16 and beginning a successful career as a hairdresser in Boulder, Colorado, Barbara could feel that something was missing. “There was a part of me that could not go on anymore without singing and I knew that I had to sing.” During a vacation in St. Thomas, she met Eddie Shu, a veteran multi-instrumentalist who had worked with Louis Armstrong and Gene Krupa. After hearing her sing, he gave Barbara some Billie Holiday records, encouraged her, and told her that all she needed was a band. She has not stopped since.
Barbara Paris made her debut as a jazz singer during a trip to Paris. On the same trip an acquaintance told her about the legendary pianist Joe Bonner who was living in Denver and suggested that she look him up. After a bit of a search, Barbara found the pianist (who had worked with Freddie Hubbard, Pharoah Sanders and Woody Shaw) and quickly realized that “he was playing music similar to what I heard in my head.” Their musical partnership continued for 23 years up until shortly before his passing in 2014. “I learned so much from Joe. We were musical soul mates.”

Udine is in Friuli, which is shorthand for Friuli-Venezia Giulia, a region whose law-firm-like name does not roll easily off the tongue and whose location — in Italy's upper attic — is off the beaten tourist track.
Janice and I had just toured Venice for the first time last year and, like millions of tourists before us, had been blown away by it. Friuli gave us a different take on Italy, sort of like discovering that your favorite Hollywood star is just as cool off camera. Italy too is charming away from the set.
In Friuli, men actually wear those pointy green hiking hats. In Friuli, a casual conversation at a bar can turn into a half-hour language lesson. With free glasses of liqueur. And a lemon. But I'll explain that later.
Our trip to Friuli began with a 90-minute train ride from Venice northeast to Udine (pronounced OOH-dih-neh), the second-largest city in the region. (The Adriatic port city of Trieste, almost inside Slovenia, is the largest.)
Janice and I arrived late in the afternoon, too late to do much but — darn our luck — eat a leisurely carb- and cholesterol-laden meal. At Osteria alle Volte, in a 15th century vaulted basement, we enjoyed fettuccine with mussels and porcini, ravioli graced with saffron-tinted scallops and shrimp and fine local wine.
Then we contented ourselves with a quick walk through central Udine, noting places to explore later. Even here in the old part of town, the streets were wide and sunny, not the mazelike, codfish-scented alleys of stereotypical Italy.
From the street, we saw few signs of Udine's main attraction, the work of 18th century artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. In 1726, a local patriarch gave the young Venetian painter a commission — his first outside Venice — to execute frescoes in the Udine cathedral. Udine's residents apparently thought fondly of Tiepolo, and vice versa, for he continued to paint for them, on canvas, even after he left the city for Würzburg, Germany. He returned to Udine in old age with his son to produce more masterpieces.
Our next morning began with a buzz, in two senses. First, there was the energy of a workaday city waking up. Pedestrians and Vespa riders dodged Fiats and Lancias; cellphones chirped.
Clerks and cops popped into cafes seeking the other buzz — their daily caffeine boost. Nothing compares with a real Italian cappuccino — a foundation of a bittersweet elixir supporting a lascivious mound of foam — for clearing away morning cobwebs. It was the ideal companion to the flaky turnovers and tarts typically available at the cafes.
Thus fortified, we left for Passariano, a small town about 15 miles west of Udine. The local bus took us through flat agricultural country, through villages where farm fields and vineyards come right to the edge of town and cars share the roads with tractors.
Initially, we weren't sure we were on the right bus. But a succession of motherly women adopted us and made our safe arrival their project. As one would get off at her stop, she would hand us off to someone else who would make sure that we didn't get off too early.
We alighted in a pleasant but unremarkable residential section of Passariano. Just up the block was something magnificently out of place, Villa Manin. It is described as the country home of Venetian nobility, but that's "country home" in the sense that Rome's St. Peter's Basilica is a "church." (In fact, the colonnade in front of the villa is based on the one at St. Peter's.)
Villa Manin was begun in 1650 and was a symbol of Venetian domination of the area. So imagine the irony when a subsequent tenant, Napoleon Bonaparte, in 1797 signed the Treaty of Campoformido there, effectively ending Venice's run as an international power and asserting French authority.
Six decades later, the Manin family regained the villa during the unification of Italy in 1860. They directed landscapers to redesign the villa's 47-acre garden into the shape of the Italian "boot," and despite years of neglect, some of their work is still discernible. Janice and I spent an hour exploring the arboretum and expanses of lawn, appreciating the crumbling temples and weather-beaten statuary.
And that's just the backyard. There is a park-size lawn in front, confined by that elliptical colonnade. The estate's interior is equally grand.
The villa has its own armory, featuring a 12-foot-long 18th century musket and examples of body armor with Darth Vader-like helmets.
We also paused in the villa's chapel, richly decorated with sculptures commissioned by the family. Upstairs are the glittering rooms once occupied by Lodovico Manin, the last doge of Venice, from 1789 to 1797, when the villa was a center of civic, social and artistic life.

Local mechanisms of cohesive soil erosion
Local mechanisms of cohesive soil erosion.
Brunier-Coulin, F.and Cuéllar, P. and Philippe, P.
In: ICSE 2016 (8th International Conference on Scour and Erosion), 12-15 September 2016, Oxford, UK. (2016)
|Download:|document citation PDF (8Mb)
|Abstract:||The present study provides an experimental contribution to a better understanding of erosion mechanisms, based on a parametric analysis with different model materials. Such model soils allow for a controlled variation of physical properties, as well as the particle size and shape, and even the cohesion and bonding strength which can be quantified by specific mechanical testing devices. In parallel, the soil’s resistance against erosion can also be somehow quantified by means of experimental procedures such as the JET test (Hanson and Cook 2004). The goal of the investigations presented here is to determine the soil’s mechanical properties having a strong impact on the erosion resistance, and thus being required in an efficient erosion model. The useful case where the model material is also transparent enables, with adapted optical equipment, the time-space monitoring of single soil particles during erosion and thus a local analysis of erosion and soil’s detachment. Experimentally, this condition is achieved by using an oil mixture as eroding fluid and a model soil made out of glass beads possibly bonded with a very viscous liquid, all phases having approximately the same refractive index. Coupling then this refractive index matching technique with the planar laser-induced fluorescence, as already used by Philippe & Badiane (2013), makes it possible to observe the mechanisms by which the fluid flow removes single particles from the cohesive material.|

Apple has recommended its shareholders to vote against the demand for a CEO succession plan at the Annual Meeting of shareholders in February.
The recommendation is cited in the Proxy Statement filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday.
The recommendation discourages the shareholders to vote against the shareholder proposal entitled Amend the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines to adopt and disclose a written CEO succession planning policy.
The proxy statement states that the Central Laborers' Pension Fund which owns 11,484 shares in the company is aspiring to present a proposal which details the guidelines to find suitable successor to the CEO. The plan demands that the CEO succession plan be annually reviewed by directors, development of specific criteria to select a CEO and a specific plan to develop internal candidates for the profile.
It also expects the Board to commence CEO succession planning at least 3 years before an expected transition and to present annual reports on its succession strategy.
However, Apple is rallying its shareholders to vote against this demand by stating that the succession plan would jeopardize its competitive advantage as it would give the Company's competitors an unfair advantage. Proposal No. 5 would publicize the Company's confidential objectives and plans.
It further stated that proposal would undermine the Company's efforts to recruit and retain executives. The Board believes that the Company's success depends on attracting and retaining a superior executive team, including the CEO. Proposal No. 5 requires a report identifying the candidates being considered for CEO, as well as the criteria used to evaluate each candidate. By publicly naming these potential successors, Proposal No. 5 invites competitors to recruit high-value executives away from Apple. Furthermore, executives who are not identified as potential successors may choose to voluntarily leave the Company.
Apple's success is closely tied to its enigmatic CEO Steve Jobs, who sent shivers across the stock market causing suspension of after-hours trading of Apple stocks in January 2009, when he took leave for six months from the position to focus on his health. Steve Jobs was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and underwent surgery in 2004 to remove a tumor. The issue was further stoked when Bloomberg had mistakenly published an obituary of Steve Jobs in 2008, with date and cause of death left blank which was however corrected by the group.
Steve Jobs currently holds 5.5 million of Apple's shares. However he received only $1 in salary in 2010. He was receiving the same annual compensation since 1997.

Head of Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant has been released, IAEA chief says
The head of the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine has been released, U.N. nuclear watchdog chief Rafael Grossi said on Monday after a detention that Ukraine blamed on Russia and called an act of terror.
Ukraine said a Russian patrol detained Ihor Murashov on Friday as he traveled from Europe’s largest nuclear power plant to the town of Enerhodar, where many of the plant’s staff live. Ukrainian staff continue to operate the plant in conditions the International Atomic Energy Agency says put safety at risk.……

New Delhi: The Uttar Pradesh police have filed an FIR against Mohammed Zubair, a fact-checker and journalist with Alt News, for sharing the video of a Muslim boy in Muzaffarnagar who was slapped by his classmates on the directions of their school teacher recently. Zubair told The Wire that an FIR had been lodged against him even though he had later deleted the video and notified his followers on social media site X (formerly Twitter).
The FIR accuses Zubair of revealing the identity of the boy through the act of sharing the video of the incident online. The FIR was lodged at the Mansoorpur police station in the western UP district in the early hours of August 28 on the complaint of one Vishnudutt, a resident of the village where the incident took place.
Zubair, who is often on the radar of right-wing forces as well as BJP-ruled state governments, was charged under Section 74 of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015, which is punishable by imprisonment up to six months.
On August 25, Zubair had put out a tweet of the boy’s father narrating that he had decided to not file a police complaint against the teacher for making other students hit his son. Zubair’s tweet not only disclosed the identity of the man but also of his minor son. However, hours later Zubair deleted the video after the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights had asked people not to share the video and warned them that revealing the identity of the boy was an offence.
Zubair was amazed that even though the video was widely shared by thousands of other people, including journalists and politicians, he was singled out by the police for action, despite deleting his tweet.
“I personally feel it is vendetta politics. Soon after the NCPCR asked people to not share the video, I deleted the video and pointed it out on my timeline. But I was singled out. Several other TV channels and anchors played the video before and after I did,” Zubair told The Wire.
The Station House Officer of Mansoorpur did not respond to phone calls. Zubair says the police are yet to approach him. He is taking legal advice in the matter.
Meanwhile, several rights activists have questioned why the teacher in question – Tripta Tyagi – has only been charged with non-cognisable offences under the Indian Penal Code.
In the viral video which the government authorities have now had removed from social media, Tyagi, who runs the Neha Public School at her home, can be seen exhorting other students to assault a Muslim child who is seen crying while different students come forward to slap him. At one point in the video, the teacher scolded a student for not hitting him hard enough. “I have declared that all those Muslim children should be…(inaudible),” she can be heard saying in the 40-second-long video.
As The Wire has reported, there has been pressure on the young boy’s family to “compromise” and not take charges against the teacher forward. Tyagi has claimed that she did nothing wrong and there was nothing communal about her actions.
Zubair was arrested and put in jail for three weeks in June-July 2022, and multiple cases filed against him for a tweet in which he had shared a screenshot from an old Bollywood film. He was released on the Supreme Court’s orders.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review highlights recent advances in renal magnesium (Mg) handling. The understanding of the molecular processes of epithelial Mg transport has expanded considerably due to the identification of novel genes involved in hypomagnesemic disorders. RECENT FINDINGS: Mg deficiency remains one of the most common electrolyte disorders. Detailed genetic analysis of families with inherited forms of hypomagnesemia has led to the identification of new genes involved in Mg homeostasis. As such, familial hypomagnesemia has been linked to mutations in the claudin-16/19 complex located in the thick ascending limb. Moreover, the pro-epidermal growth factor, the potassium channels Kv1.1 and Kir4.1, and the hepatocyte nuclear factor 1B have recently been identified as causative factors in syndromes of hereditary hypomagnesemia. These proteins play key roles in regulating electrolyte balance within the distal convoluted tubule, either by directly affecting the epithelial Mg channel, transient receptor potential channel melastatin member 6, or by altering the driving force for Mg influx via the channel. SUMMARY: Recent genetic and molecular studies have further elucidated the processes that govern renal Mg transport and hence systemic Mg balance. This has provided us with new tools to understand the molecular pathology behind hypomagnesemia.

This was a terrible episode. Ten seasons in and no one has ever seen so much as a single word written about this kind of 'angel' ? Yeah. Ok. Sure. :P
Who was the woman that stabbed Ben? I didn't recognize her.
It was the lady, I'm assuming a "hit lady" of some sort who Margaux had originally called upon earlier when she still wanted revenge against Emily. But then she met her at a car dealership and called it off.
I can't believe this episode man me cry. So intense and dramatic. The standoff between Machine and Samaritan was pure genius. The power cut just added more drama, POI writers and producers are insane. I can't believe these guys. This episode was almost a movie. Not even fast and furious 7 could touch this episode. Wow. OMG I can't wait for the finale, finally TEAM RELEVANT will be in action again.
The ending was pretty LAME,.But I think that is usually because they don't know if they way to extend the series,.Which I hope they do,.The whole cast had a great synergy,.I NEVER watch any episodic TV
Just wondering, do you think it could be possible that David is not sick, but that Victoria modified his medical records as part as of revenge plan to hurt Emily? Could the treatment he received makes him feel sick without having the cancer?
Interesting theory, I like how you think.
Though it is a good theory, if he's really gone to all these other doctors for multiple opinions, I'm not sure how she could pull that off. Because each doctor would run their own tests.
Join the discussion…This show followed the Aussie version almost to a tee but then changed what was a powerful and horryfying ending into a luke warm piece of crap. I haven't been so disappointed in a series finale since Moonlighting. It was terrible. So disappointed.
That CaptainSwan moment was simply beautiful,so was the mother-daughter reunion!!
Those who can't watch the video(s) of Cornell Confidential on the official website of ABC,install Mediahint(It takes few secs)& Activate it-You're done!Enjoy the videos-There's 10 of them including the time jump 4.5 min video after the finale.Everyone should watch it who wants to see the proper ending of this season's SL,not the version they showed us in the episode.
I was extremely disappointed in this episode after the last few--to me it was just filler(no need for those type episodes at the end of the season like this). But, Christine, I suppose you're right when you say they wanted to show Alicia's metamorphosis and her crisis of confidence. I guess all those who are wanting Alicia and Finn together(NO!!!) may get their wish after all. I, too, want to know what was in the letter Kalinda left Alicia and I don't know why that wasn't addressed. And the big question.....just who in the hell is going to show up to visit Alicia?!?!?!!?!?! They better not leave us hanging with who it is..........
That is a possibility but I find that highly unlikely because she's hiding from Bishop. It was reported she'd appear before the finale......and she did last night......so..........
Getting way too hard to follow...........I guess because I haven't read the books.

Larynx Cancer Symptoms
Larynx cancer symptoms vary significantly from patient to patient and depend on a variety of factors, such as age and the size of the tumor. Additionally, while larynx cancer most commonly originates in the squamous cells that line the vocal cords in the middle of the larynx, it can potentially form in other areas of the upper and lower larynx, which may affect symptoms. A diagnosis of larynx cancer typically requires complex testing, which may include a biopsy, CT scan, MRI, and/or a PET scan, among others. Because of this, patients are usually only diagnosed after already displaying significant signs of the cancer. Therefore, patients experiencing larynx cancer symptoms should receive a thorough examination as quickly as possible.
Common signs include:
- Persistent coughing
- Ongoing sore throat
- Voice changes or hoarseness
- A lump in the neck
- Ear pain
- Difficulty or pain with swallowing
Tampa General Hospital’s ENT oncology specialists provide individualized treatment plans for patients suffering from larynx cancer from a team of physicians that includes surgeons, radiation oncologists, and other cancer specialists. We are committed to providing our patients with the best treatment outcomes, which is why we utilize the most advanced technologies and techniques available.

The extremely adaptable lavender variety known as “Grosso” (Lavandula x intermedia) combines the cold hardiness of the English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) with the prolonged flowering season of a Portuguese lavender (Lavandula latifolia).
In ideal conditions, the larger lavender variety known as “Grosso” can reach widths of 32 inches (80 cm) and lengths of 46 inches (116 cm), thus it needs a lot of room to thrive.
To reduce the risk of fungal illness, you should give lavender “Grosso” greater room and airflow in humid climates.
|In Climates With Temperate
|3 to 4 feet apart
|Warm, arid climates
|In humid environments:
|to allow for airflow, at least 3 feet apart
|Regarding Decorative Hedges:
|Depending on the temperature and growing conditions, space them 20 inches or 2 feet apart.
It’s important to keep in mind that lavender ‘Grosso’ won’t necessarily reach its full size in every garden because it depends on the particular growth circumstances, environment, and care guidelines. To learn how to take care of lavender “Grosso,” read my article.
To space lavender “Grosso” for your garden’s requirements, keep reading.
Table of Contents
Spacing Lavender ‘Grosso’
Lavender ‘Grosso’ needs more room between plants than smaller types like ‘Hidcote’ or ‘Munstead’ because it is a larger variety at full growth.
On the windy Mediterranean coast, lavenders are accustomed to thrive in open spaces without having to fight with other plants for light or ventilation.
The lavender will grow slightly larger in areas that resemble the Mediterranean, with hot summers, full sun, infrequent rainfall, mild winters, and the best growing conditions, including well-draining sandy soils.
As a result, the spacing of your lavender plants should be determined by your climate.
Lavender “Grosso” spacing
- shorter growing seasons are common in temperate areas (such those in Washington, Oregon, or the UK). Lavender ‘Grosso’ plants should be spaced at least 2 feet apart.
- Place lavender ‘Grosso’ plants about 2-3 feet apart in warmer regions (such as California, Spain, and Italy) that are similar to those in the Mediterranean.
- Lavender “Grosso” should be placed farther apart—at least 3 feet—in climates that tend to be damp. Airflow will be improved, preventing the spread of fungus.
Due of its adaptation to the Mediterranean climate of Southern European regions with full sun, arid conditions, and infrequent rainfall, lavenders typically dislike humid climes.
If your environment is moderately humid, place the lavender in an area of your garden that is open and as far away from other plants as is practical. You might also want to consider growing “Grosso” in pots or raised beds rather than directly in the ground to give the foliage more airflow.
Because: Lavender “Grosso” normally needs 2-3 feet of space.
- This enables the plant to mature and reach its full size without shading surrounding lavender plants. Lavender ‘Grosso’ is grown commercially for its highly prized aroma, and the more direct solar light it receives, the more blossoms and stronger the fragrance.
- So that each lavender plant has enough room to spread out and build a root system in the soil, allowing it to get the water and nutrients it needs without having to compete with other plants for resources.
- to let a wind, which will keep the leaves dry. Planting lavenders too closely together or in a confined space might lead to a more humid microclimate that increases the danger of fungus.
Spacing ‘Grosso’ in Pots Containers and Raised beds
However, you can get away with planting or placing pots closer together because they often have greater airflow and drainage than garden borders, making fungus diseases less of a problem.
If the pot is in a corner, make sure there is occasional breeze and full sun, rather than the quiet air which can enhance the danger of fungal illness. Bear in mind that the 2-3 feet of distance also covers the distance to fences, walls, and any other building as well as plants.
Spacing Lavender ‘Grosso’ Hedges
Since “Grosso” also spreads out considerably, establishing a hedge with it requires fewer individual plants than with other, more diminutive, common lavender varieties.
The larger “Grosso” will grow if your climate is similar to the Mediterranean climate (scorching sun, intense heat, and rare rainfall), but lavenders tend to be a little bit smaller in cooler locations like the UK or Oregon because of the shorter growth season and less sunshine hours.
This will have an impact on how far apart you should plant your “Grosso” when creating your hedge.
Lavender “grosso” plants should be spaced about 20 inches apart in chilly temperate areas. That means there should be 20 inches between each planting location rather than 20 inches from the foliage’s farthest reaches.
This will guarantee that your lavender forms a single, continuous hedge while yet allowing the root system ample space to take root. The amount of flowers and overall health of each plant will suffer if plants are planted too closely together.
Plant each lavender plant about 2 feet apart in warm, Mediterranean-style conditions with plenty of sunshine and dry weather to guarantee the lavender grows into a sturdy, tasteful hedge.
The hedge will have merged into a profusion of flowers and fragrant foliage within two years.
(Read my article about lavender hedge spacing for more information.)
- Lay out your lavender plants in 2-3 foot intervals. Each plant will be given adequate light, room for its roots, and access to water and nutrients as a result.
- Due of the shorter growth season in colder locations, lavenders may grow a little bit smaller there. Lavenders thrive best in temperatures comparable to those of their original Mediterranean region.
- To improve ventilation and prevent fugal infections, place “Grosso” at least three feet apart in humid climates.
- Due to the better drainage and improved capacity for airflow, “Grosso” thrives in pots and containers.
- When planting hedges, place ‘Grosso’ roughly 20 inches to 2 feet apart. To account for the size variation, place lavender plants farther apart in hot, dry locations with ideal circumstances and closer together in cold climates with less intense sunlight.
How far apart should I plant lavender grosso?
Lavender Grosso should be planted at least 2-3 feet apart from one another. This will guarantee that every plant has enough space, airflow, water, nutrients, and sunlight to grow roots in the soil.
Can you plant lavender close together?
Space lavender plants 2-3 feet apart. Larger kinds grow and bloom best when planted 3 feet apart, while dwarf versions can be planted closer together (18 inches to 2 feet).
How much space do you need between lavender rows?
Does lavender make a good hedge?
The common lavender’s flowers start to bloom in the late spring and last until summertime. This cultivar is excellent for large plantings, edging, and hedge. It is also popular in rock gardens. The cultivars have dense flower spikes and gray-green leaves, and they grow compactly.
How long does a lavender hedge last?
In home gardens, lavender, a perennial, has been known to last up to 15 years. Growing lavender can be done in many different ways to lengthen life. A lavender hedge can last a lifetime with correct soil preparation, soil additives, drainage, pruning, winter protection, and harvesting.

New GO Train Station on the Way for York Region
Ontario Government Committed to Public Transit
Ontario's transit agency, Metrolinx, has started building a new GO station in York Region to make it easier for commuters to take public transit, reduce congestion, and create jobs by getting people moving.
Construction of a new GO Station in Gormley is underway, extending the Richmond Hill line north to Stouffville Road and Leslie Street. The station will include surface parking with approximately 850 spaces, a bus loop, kiss and ride drop-off area, and pedestrian walkways. The station is expected to open by the end of 2016 and is expected to create more than 20 jobs during construction.
A recently opened train layover facility in Richmond Hill will support the extension of the Richmond Hill line. It will improve GO Train reliability and on-time performance by allowing trains to park overnight closer to the start of their morning trips.
Investing in public transportation is part of the government's economic plan for Ontario. The four part plan is building Ontario up by investing in people's talents and skills, building new public infrastructure like roads and transit, creating a dynamic, supportive environment where business thrives, and building a secure savings plan so everyone can afford to retire.
- Every weekday, more than 10,000 GO riders travel across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area along the Richmond Hill line.
- GO Transit moves approximately 66 million riders a year.
- Since 2003, Ontario has invested approximately $9.1 billion in GO Transit to improve service and expand routes.
- Loc-Pave Construction Limited of Gormley was awarded the contract, which is valued at $20 million.
“A new GO station in York Region will give commuters more flexibility and convenience and get them to their destinations quicker. This is proof of our government’s commitment to making the daily commute and quality of life better for Ontario families.”
Steven Del Duca
“This is great news for commuters in Oak Ridges-Markham. This new GO Station will make a difference in their day and provide a smoother commute for York Region transit riders.”
Dr. Helena Jaczek
“Today’s announcement is great news for GO Transit users on the Richmond Hill Line and will make transit more accessible, convenient and easier to use for the citizens of Richmond Hill. Building a new GO station will help keep the region moving each and every day.”
“Today’s Gormley announcement shows this government’s transit plan is real, and we are supporting the growing and vibrant communities in York Region.”
“We are bringing more GO Train service to our customers on the Richmond Hill line with the construction of a new station at Stouffville Road. This is one of many infrastructure improvement projects we’re working on to bring more public transit to more people throughout the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area.”

The Global Precipitation Measurement mission or GPM core satellite provided data on rainfall over Vietnam from the remnants of former Tropical Storm Haikui.
The GPM core observatory satellite provided information about rainfall associated with the remnants of Tropical Storm Haikui on Nov. at 4:29 a.m. EST (0929 UTC). Earlier in the month, Typhoon Damrey caused widespread destruction when it hit Vietnam on Nov. 4, 2017. Fortunately Tropical Storm Haikui dissipated over the South China Sea before its remnant clouds and storms reached Vietnam.
Rainfall data collected by GPM’s Microwave Imager (GMI) and Dual Frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) instruments revealed that some storms from Haikui’s remnants contained light to moderate precipitation. GPM found a small cluster of storms associated with Haikui’s remnants were dropping rain at a rate of over 23 mm (0.9 inches) per hour from the central Vietnam coast into eastern Laos.
GPM’s DPR found heavier precipitation with showers over southern Vietnam that were not associated with Haikui’s remnants. DPR revealed that downpours over southern Vietnam were dropping rain at a rate of greater than 79 mm (3.1 inches) per hour.
