As players’ contract extensions have continued with Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling, Aymeric Laporte and more recently Bernardo Silva all renewing terms, Leroy Sane has yet to put pen to paper on a new deal. The 23-year-old has been one of City’s best players in the last two seasons winning the PFA Young Player of the Year award last term. This was due largely to his role in the team as the Sky Blues dominated English football ending the campaign with the double. He was signed on a five-year deal from German side Schalke in the in the summer of 2016.
Renewing the contract has become important to the club in order to wade off interest from other top European sides. Worse still leaving the contract renewal too late can lead to problems such as going overboard to satisfy the player’s demands to avoid losing him without adequate plan for a replacement. Hence, the club has been locked in talks with the player and his representatives since last year without much progress.
However, it has emerged that the player’s family members particularly his parents have been responsible for the delay. Sane’s mother, Regina Weber, who won a bronze medal for Germany at the 1984 Olympics for individual rhythmic gymnastics and his father, Souleyman Sane, a former footballer who represented Senegal at international level have both been involved in the negotiations.
It has subsequently been reported in some media outlets that the player’s mother has proven to be ‘difficult’ in the course of the talks. Although the man in the middle of the situation himself has stated that he is happy at the club, the level of influence being wielded by his family has become a source of concern.
But this can also be viewed as a group that understand the value of their product and want to squeeze out as much as possible from the club in exchange for his services. Who can blame them when recent contract renewals with other players have come with bumper packages. A case in point is that of Raheem Sterling.
Sane seems to have settled down well in Manchester though. The German international also loves playing under Guardiola’s tutelage. With City winning trophies every season now, what more can a player ask for? These are all factors that will help convince him commit his long term future to the club.
Despite starting the season rather slowly as Guardiola felt he wasn’t in the right frame of mind to play due to some family issues, he has since blended in well with the team. Having regained his form, he now scores and sets up goals regularly for his teammates.
Both parties will most likely come to an agreement down the road as the manager considers the 23-year-old a vital part of his squad. The Catalan manager spoke highly of him in a recent interview:
“He (Sane) is a player we know has incredible qualities. It is difficult to find around the world a player with the qualities he has.”
Holding the player in such high esteem means he is going nowhere as the club will do everything necessary to keep him.

If nothing else, read this…
For decades, the plastic industry has perpetuated the myth that plastics are recyclable. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Most plastics aren’t recyclable and no amount of investment in recycling programs – or supposedly new “recycling” technologies – will change that. The plastics that are recyclable, at least in theory, release huge quantities of microplastics into the environment. And the new plastic products created from those recycled plastics? They’re full of toxic chemicals. The truth is plastic recycling is a lie designed to distract us from what we really need to do – turn off the plastics tap once and for all.
Plastic Recycling Isn’t Working and That’s Not Going to Change
It’s no secret that plastic recycling is an abysmal failure. The United States recycles plastic at a dismal rate of 5%-6% annually. For years, the companies producing plastics have blamed everyone but themselves. They claim careless consumers who litter and don’t recycle are responsible. But that’s a lie. Most plastic was never meant to be recycled, and it never will.
Unlike other materials like glass, paper, cardboard, or aluminum, there are thousands of different types of plastics, each with unique characteristics, chemicals, additives, and colorants. This makes it impossible to sort plastics into separate streams for processing. It’s why in most communities, you can put a plastic water bottle into your recycling bin, but not plastic “clamshells” (think of those plastic containers that hold food products like spinach, salads, and berries). Even though both are the same type of plastic, polyethylene terephthalate – more commonly known as PET or Plastic #1.
Another problem with recycling? The economics. Collecting, sorting, transporting, and reprocessing plastic is extremely expensive. Because of this, recycled plastic costs more than new plastics. Manufacturing new plastics, unfortunately, only gets cheaper as the petrochemical and fossil fuel industries reap financial handouts and continue to push for massive expansions across the country.
Efforts to Promote a “New Wave” of Plastic Recycling Are Just Distractions
To mask the fact that most plastics aren’t recyclable, large companies and the petrochemical industry are promoting so-called advanced recycling and niche recycling programs. Neither of which are real solutions.
Advanced recycling – the process where high-heat or chemicals break down plastic waste into fuels, chemicals, waxes, lubricants, and intermediaries – is a colossal failure, just like mechanical (or traditional) plastic recycling. Only 1 – 14% of the plastic processed through so-called “advanced recycling” technologies is used to manufacture new plastic. The rest is burned. The environmental and economic impacts of advanced recycling are 10 to 100 times worse than making new plastics. Which says a lot given how toxic and climate-damaging manufacturing new plastics is.
Niche recycling programs that claim to collect and manage “hard-to-recycle” plastics also aren’t real solutions. They always turn out to be scams. Take store drop off programs for single-use plastic bags. In response to single-use plastic bag bans, the plastic industry rolled out a nationwide plastic bag recycling program at retail stores across the country. But, it’s all for show. Virtually none of the plastic bags are actually recycled.
Investigative journalists placed dozens of trackers in bundles of plastic bags and dropped them off at stores across the country for recycling. After months, half the trackers wound up at landfills or incinerators; seven at transfer stations that don’t recycle or sort plastic bags, and six remained at the stores where they were dropped off. Three trackers wound up thousands of miles away in countries known to be struggling with plastic waste exports from the U.S.
The Small Fraction of Plastic That Can Actually Be Recycled Is a Toxic Nightmare
While some plastics can be recycled, that isn’t necessarily a good thing. Plastic recycling can release huge quantities of microplastics. Research at a plastic recycling facility in the United Kingdom found that microplastics released in the wastewater amounted to 6% of all the plastic processed. And that’s after a filter was installed. The results also found high levels of microplastics in the air around the recycling facility.
These invisible specks of plastic are everywhere. And recycling plastic only makes it worse. As microplastics spread throughout the environment, the toxic chemicals found in all plastics leak out. If that weren’t bad enough, evidence shows that microplastics don’t just leach nasty chemicals, they attract them – becoming vectors for other chemicals in the environment.
But microplastics aren’t the only problem. Making plastic comes with lots of toxic chemicals and additives, which don’t disappear during recycling. In fact, recycled plastics often contain higher levels of these toxic chemicals and additives. Worse, unlike metal and glass, plastics are not inert. Instead, they can absorb the chemicals they contain. So, a plastic bottle that once held bleach or pesticides will likely absorb those chemicals.
Real Solutions Must Acknowledge that Plastic Recycling is a Toxic Myth
Despite the stark realities surrounding plastic recycling, the plastic industry is continuing to perpetuate the myth that plastics are recyclable. Why? Because if they admit the truth – that plastic recycling is a toxic nightmare – then they must admit that there’s only one real solution: To turn off the tap on plastic once and for all.
Americans produce more plastic waste each year than residents of any other country – almost five hundred pounds per person. The odds are high that every piece of plastic you interact with – a plastic bottle, a single-use bag, a takeout container, or other packaging – will end up in a landfill, an incinerator, or the environment. The only way to ensure that doesn’t happen? Eliminating all unnecessary single-use plastic and plastic packaging in the first place.
We have lived without unnecessary plastic before, and we can do it again. Glass, paper, cardboard, and aluminum are all highly recyclable and significantly more sustainable than plastics. Much of our time and effort on recycling is spent addressing plastics. If we eliminate plastics, we can focus on the materials that are truly recyclable, while also transitioning away from single-use products and packaging. Let’s put an end to our throw-away economy, which treats people and our planet as disposable.
Turning the Tide on Plastic
Of course, turning off the tap isn’t going to be easy. Not only is the plastic industry a subsidiary of the fossil-fuel industry, but it’s also highly connected to some of the largest consumer good companies in the world. And it’s fighting hard to keep us hooked on plastics. To industry giants, the bottom line means more than our health and our environment. We also face practical hurdles. To replace all this single-use plastic we need new laws and systems.
But we can do this. More and more states are passing legislation banning single-use plastic bags, straws, takeout containers, and other polluting items. New laws are being considered that will hold companies accountable for the plastic waste they create. Laws that will not only force companies to eliminate single-use plastic packaging, but also invest in reuse systems.
Just Zero is at the front of these efforts. But we can’t do it alone. We need people in every state fighting for change. Only together can we turn the tide on the plastic waste crisis.

Nobody can deny that cannabis use is currently on the rise in Canada and other parts of the world. More adults now see the health benefits that one can get from using cannabis, either for medical or recreational use. If this is your first time, finding the right cannabis or Weed Strains for you can be daunting. To help you out, here are some tips for you.
Understanding Cannabis Strains
So what are cannabis strains? If you have visited a couple of dispensaries or have read a little about cannabis, then for sure, you have encountered some things that feel and sound like jargon to you. Words like Indica, Sativa, and hybrid, are probably the most common ones that you found. Simply because they are the categories that cannabis is divided into.
- Cannabis Sativa. It is by far the type of cannabis that most people like to smoke. They have long and narrow leaves perfect for smoking. Sativa is most often dried, cooked, or consumed, but some people choose to smoke or vaporize them. Sativa can get you high, but it is also known to enhance ones’ creativity. It is the cannabis strain you would want to use if you know that you need to be up and active for the rest of the day.
- Sativa Indica. Originated from the Hindu Kush mountains of India, Indica is believed to provide a relaxing effect. It is more of a substantial strain compared to Sativa. It has incredible healing qualities, popularly used to treat insomnia, pain, muscle spasms, induce relaxation of the muscles, and calm anxiety.
- The Hybrids. With so many years of intense hybridization, cultivators created a vast spectrum of hybrid cannabis varieties. Each of these mixes also has different characteristics. The ultimate purpose of the hybrids is to combine the positive attributes of various cannabis strains.
Picking the Right Strain
The strain that you would prefer will always depend on the effects that you want to achieve. Cannabis has plenty of medical uses, but some are better than others. It is best to research the possible impact of the strains available for you, both positive and negative. Doing so will give you some confidence that you are choosing the right cannabis strain for your needs. For medical purposes, it is best to see your doctor to help you determine if cannabis products are safe for you to use, which is the most helpful for your medical condition.

In California, an individual can be charged with a property crime or theft if it’s believed that he or she unlawfully stole the property of another person with a focus and intent to deprive the property’s owner. The most common kinds of theft cases include:
- Breaking and entering
- Armed robbery
- Identification theft
The severity of the crime of which the person is accused will rely upon the worth and value of the stolen property. People are charged with petty theft for valuables assessed at $400 or less. If the amount is great than $400, then the charges will fall under grand theft. Other elements considered when filing charges will include how devious the scheme was, the relationship to the victim, and the items that were stolen.
What Are the Potential Punishments for a Glendale Property Crime?
As indicated above, property crimes are classified as a felony or petty act. Grand theft may fall under felony or misdemeanor status and is punishable by one year or more in a county jail or state prison. Petty theft is always a misdemeanor and is punishable by monetary fines and county jail time up to 6 months. State laws were codified to punish anyone who is found guilty of theft.
Defending a Property Crime
When a person is charged with a property crime, it is imperative that he or she speaks with a criminal lawyer as soon as possible. Criminal defense lawyers understand how to provide you with the best defense. If you are accused of theft, you might have a chance to explain your side of the story in the event that you believed the item was yours. This scenario would require supporting evidence.
Drug and Alcohol Involvement
Being inebriated, through drugs or alcohol, has also been used as a reasonable defense in property crime matters. Therefore, the attorney might be able to argue that the individual was unable to intentionally steal anything at all.
Some defendants have successfully proven that entrapment existed under the circumstance. This often occurs when someone commits a property crime but was convinced to go along with the act in order to have another individual apprehended.
Should a Property Crimes Lawyer in Glendale Be Hired?
Even minor offenses, like shoplifting or writing a bad check, have serious repercussions outside of jail time and fines. It could also affect future chances at employment or professional certifications. It is for this reason that people who have been accused of a property crime are a sitting duck for prosecutors, judges, and the jury. Working with a Glendale property crimes lawyer like Parsanj Law Group is often a wise choice when confronted with this type of issue. Call us at 818-698-6680.

由邵氏兄弟製作的《Master's Talk師父有請》播出第十集,主持人林盛斌(Bob)和麥玲玲邀請到「話題人物」馮盈盈、方力申和陳自瑤(YoYo)擔任嘉賓。
方力申同YoYo當年因合作拍《大細心》MV而傳出緋聞。方力申和YoYo同時舉手發誓稱從沒拍過拖,2006年拍完MV之後幾乎沒見過面,小方說:「MV只有佢錫咗我面一啖,就傳緋聞,當時傳緋聞傳得太犀利,我本身唔覺得係一回事,後來傳到連工都冇得開,廣告商話太多新聞唔用我。」小方指自己會遠離各種引誘,盈盈同YoYo即時尖叫讚小方是絕種好男人,YoYo即時搶答說:「好少男仔好似佢咁,我支持佢!其實個個男人都受唔到誘惑,唔單止係佢呀喎,有男人會咁做,但有男人唔會咁做。」小方表示雖然不值得驕傲,但他稱在內地工作多年,從來沒遇過女演員敲門。
麥玲玲指藝人要紅的話命格一定要有是非,無論馮盈盈開放型或者方力申的穩守型都一樣,小方笑指YoYo一定會爆紅,事關她在《萬千星輝頒獎典禮2020》中的「黑面」表情被瘋狂洗版,小方說:「佢最近個『黑面』網上熱搜係全國Top 10,有錢都買唔到呢個位,我仲收到風,佢啲粉絲上升幾十萬。」Bob稱自己用Whatsapp都經常見到YoYo個經典黑面樣,每次講廢話時朋友就會傳來,大家都七嘴八舌狂笑。YoYo傻笑說:「我澄清先,大家唔好笑住,我冇黑面,你拎番張相出嚟睇,我係冇黑面呀,當下個表達係冇乜表情,比較淡然,我冇黑,塊面仲有『令』嘅。表情係淡然冇黑面亦冇不悅,但人哋解讀好多嘢,(全世界都係咁解讀,讚你、多謝你應該微笑?)有呀有呀,我真係有微笑呀!鏡頭影咗我兩、三秒,做唔晒咁多表情,可能我有微笑咗少少,鏡頭影唔到啫。」

To evaluate hypotheses in the virility manage due to the fact a function of parity, sex structure, and you can death regarding previous births, i use distinct-time experiences-history studies
A 4th material you need to take into account is that https://hookuphotties.net/craigslist-hookup/ given that a result of widower remarriage and polygyny, certain men submitted on public record information of one’s Qing imperial ancestry got multiple wife. Ergo if you find yourself 44.1 of the 18,361 people on origin exactly who lasted to at least decades 30 had just one spouse, twenty two.step 3 % had a couple of, and you may cuatro.six per cent got about three or even more. 1 Guys have been most likely getting several wives about start of your own dynasty in the event that lineage is less and you will tips way more numerous. Of your guys produced by the 1740 just who lasted about to help you ages 29, thirty six.5 had you to definitely girlfriend submitted, however, 57.six had 2 or more.
Since the we do not keeps schedules of wedding and you will dying to possess brand new spouses of all of those boys, we cannot separate between polygyny and you will widower remarriage from inside the bookkeeping getting the current presence of several spouses. According, we restrict investigation so you can monogamous men, that’s boys just who simply have you to definitely spouse submitted regarding public record information.
Eventually, there is certain damage regarding quality of tape into the the brand new end of your nineteenth millennium (Lee, Campbell, and you can Wang 1993; Lee, Wang, and you can Campbell 1994; Wang, Lee, and Campbell 1995). 08, alongside an organic sex ratio on delivery, the newest sex ratio regarding births shortly after 1880 are step 1.67. Shortly after 1880, to phrase it differently, here seem to be generous omissions of suggestions regarding daughters. Whenever you are recording of baby and you will child deaths looks complete until from the the very least 1840, comes from the previous training in the above list suggest that deaths immediately following that year are undercounted. For every your analyses, appropriately, we not simply carried out prices utilizing the complete research, i also accomplished a lot more rates toward subsets stop inside 1840 and you will 1880 to assess whether performance obvious on the studies off a full dataset aren’t items of issues that emerged in the last part of the 19th 100 years. The outcome from this confirmatory analyses was very similar to the ones from the analysis of your done dataset, ergo right here we only establish comes from the analysis of the complete data.
I guess logistic regressions toward a built dataset composed of person-week findings out of couples. All of our first document includes person-days for everyone people starting from enough time of the basic birth and continuing having three decades, otherwise 360 days. In this primary file, i censor reproductive records because of the leaving out observations to have individual-days following the loss of the father, or pursuing the last enhance of genealogy and family history in 1921. I in addition to prohibit observations for each couple in the 9 days after its latest birth into foundation which is to never be physiologically you’ll getting a beginning because time. While the indexed earlier, we including create an excellent subset consisting of observations out-of parents having whom you will find dates of death, in which observations from weeks once the lady demise are omitted.
Just like the detailed prior to, i proxy mother’s years with cycle because very first beginning. For the historical China, lady age within matrimony is very modal, heavily concentrated doing many years 20, and you will duration because the very first beginning will be properly simply take brand new physiological outcomes out of ageing to the possibility of that have a child. We model years having a couple of categorical parameters corresponding to 2–4 many years given that earliest beginning, 5–nine ages, etc around 25–31 ages. Brand new excluded category are 0–1 decades.
To fully capture the latest you’ll negative effects of postpartum amenorrhea towards virility opportunity, if or not down seriously to longer and you will intense nursing and other points, i include procedures out-of stage since most previous birth. The classes match two years because most previous delivery, 3 years, 4 years, and you will 5 or more decades. To accommodate the possibility of an early on cessation out-of amenorrhea and you will raised likelihood of conceiving as a result of the dying of the very most previous birth, i become a connections identity to determine observations where smaller than just 2 years got elapsed due to the fact newest birth and you may you to boy became dry.

Let Them Eat Quinoa Cake
20 June 2012
Getting a chenopodiaceous Andean pseudo-cereal on a coffee shop menu is as difficult as it sounds. My friend Stefano Padulosi is endearingly self-effacing about this achievement in a recent blog post extolling the myriad virtues – and how to make the most of them – of neglected and underutilized species (NUS) in general and quinoa (the said chenopodiaceous etc. etc.) in particular:
Being able to buy quinoa cake in an important chain of coffee houses like Alexandar coffee is the result of a 10 year Bioversity project funded by IFAD – a project that involved hundreds of people from poor communities across Bolivia, along with researchers, university professors, NGOs, marketing experts and policy makers. It successfully brought NUS to the marketplace where they have become part of the everyday coffee shop menu of the younger people who go to these kinds of places.
In fact, he had a lot personally to do with the success story he describes, which involved bringing together the hard-nosed capitalists who run the Alexander chain of coffee shops with the rural cooperatives who grow, and now supply them with, the quinoa for their fancy cakes. What Stefano did with Alexander is just one of many similar activities which his project has been carrying out in Bolivia and other countries for a decade. They have made a very significant, perhaps critical, contribution to revitalizing the cultivation and enhancing the perceived value of some locally important, but unjustly neglected (by researchers and policymakers, that is, not farmers!) crops like quinoa around the world.
But is marketing enough?
Stefano knows it isn’t. He quite rightly points out that the sort of demand-side intervention that the Alexander quinoa cake story exemplifies is merely the last link in a chain that goes all the way back to conserving the diversity of the crop. The connections can be complicated, it is true, but all too often those links are not joined up at all. That’s quite disheartening for us here at the Trust on occasion, for example when we’re asked what exactly we’re doing for farmers anyway. Conserving the diversity of a crop in a genebank at global level, which is what we focus on, is unfortunately sometimes seen as somehow separate from, if not in downright competition with, empowering farmers to market their products, say, or even to conserve their crop diversity in community seed banks.
In fact, of course, you need both. Because what happens if those marketing networks you so painstakingly nurture become fixated on one or two varieties only? What happens if something bad happens to your community seed bank? What happens when climate change drastically decreases the area where your crop can be grown? What happens if there’s a new pest or disease? What happens if Alexander’s customers move on to amaranth crunch bars for a few years, before re-discovering their taste for traditional quinoa sponge?
What happens is that you go back to the genebanks. To reintroduce lost crops and varieties, maybe from a neighbouring country, which all of a sudden people want again. And to breed new varieties which produce more, or are adapted to new conditions, or fulfill new market demands. Problem is, the long-term maintenance of seeds in a cold store, with all the ancillary seed testing, regeneration and documentation work it entails, is a costly enterprise with an impact on rural livelihoods which is real enough, but so diffuse in space and time it is often invisible. Certainly compared to helping out with processing or marketing. So Bolivia and other Andean countries continue struggling to conserve their extensive quinoa collections, while the La Paz middle-class enjoy their quinoa cake. For now, that is.
Yes, you need both. You need the marketing networks and the better processing machines and the rural seed fairs and the community seed banks. And you need professionally staffed national and international genebanks with secure, long-term funding. You need quinoa and other neglected crops to be on Annex 1 of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, to facilitate international exchange of germplasm and collaboration and funding. We all – indigenous farmers with an eye for the main chance, entrepreneurial coffee shop owners, sophisticated urbanites with a sweet tooth – need both. Only that way can we have our chenopodiaceous Andean pseudo-cereal cake, and eat it too.
The opinions expressed here are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the opinions or views of the Crop Trust. The Crop Trust is committed to publishing a diversity of opinions on crop diversity conservation and use.

Rock climbing is an excellent way to get exercise and enjoy the outdoors. It is a challenging sport that requires both physical and mental strength. Rock climbing can be done indoors or outdoors, and there are many different types of rock climbing to try.
What is Rock Climbing?
Rock climbing is an exhilarating and challenging sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and abilities. It involves scaling natural rock formations or man-made walls using your hands and feet.
There are many different styles of rock climbing, from the relatively easy bouldering to the more dangerous lead climbing and soloing. The type of climbing you do will depend on your fitness level, strength and experience.
With proper instruction and some practice, rock climbing can be a safe and enjoyable way to get outside and enjoy the beauty of nature.
The History of Rock Climbing
Rock climbing began as a statement by some European tourists who visited the picturesque Yosemite Valley in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California in the mid 1800s. They were unimpressed by the current method of reaching the top of the rocks, which was to hike up a hillside next to the rocks and then use ladders and other devices to get on top. The Europeans felt that it would be much more aesthetically pleasing and challenging to climb directly up the face of the rock. They were also attracted by the potential for adventure that this new sport offered.
One of the first people to take up this challenge was an Englishman named George Mallory. In 1869, he and his climbing partner, Andrew Irvine, attempted to scale the north face of Mt. Everest, but they were unsuccessful and Mallory was never seen again. It is believed that he fell to his death somewhere on the mountain. Although Irvine and Mallory did not reach the summit of Everest, their attempt brought worldwide attention to rock climbing and inspired others to take up this challenging sport.
In America, rock climbing became popular in the early 1900s, with climbers such as Royal Robbins and Warren Harding making first ascents of many difficult routes in Yosemite Valley. Robbins is credited with making climbing more technical and precision-oriented, while Harding favored a more bold and brazen approach. Today, climbers follow both styles, depending on their personal preferences.
Rock climbing has come a long way since its humble beginnings in Yosemite Valley. Today, climbers can be found all over the world scaling everything from small boulders to towering mountains. The sport has also become more popular than ever before, with people of all ages and abilities enjoying its many benefits. Whether you’re looking for an adrenaline-pumping adventure or a low-key way to enjoy nature, rock climbing is sure to offer something for everyone.
The Different Types of Rock Climbing
Rock climbing is a sport in which people scale naturally occurring or artificially constructed rock formations. Climbing types can be broadly divided into free climbing, aid climbing, and top roping. Free climbing is subdivided into traditional climbing and sport climbing.
Traditional climbing, also known as trad climbing, is a style of rock climbing in which climbers place all their own protection as they climb. This generally means carrying a rack of gear with them and placing it in cracks in the rock as they climb. The goal is to then remove the gear from the rock as you descend. Traditional climbing is the most common form of roasting in the United States and much of the world.
In sport climbing, climbers use pre-placed bolts for protection. This type of climbing is often found in gym settings and at outdoor rock walls.Sport climbers typically follow a set route up the wall, and they use specialized equipment, such as quickdraws, to clip the rope into the bolts as they climb. Sport climbing is often seen as a step between bouldering and traditional climbing, as it requires some of the same skills as both types of climbing.
Bouldering is a type of rock climbing that is usually done on small rocks or boulders. Boulderers typically don’t use any ropes or safety gear—if they fall, they just land on padded mats. This type of rock climbing is growing in popularity because it can be done almost anywhere—you don’t need a lot of equipment or experience to get started.
Free soloing is one of the most dangerous types of rock climbing. It’s also one of the most exhilarating. When you free solo, you climb without any ropes or safety gear. If you fall, you die. This type of rock climbing is only for experienced climbers who know their limits.
Traditional climbing, also called “trad climbing,” is a type of rock climbing that relies on placing temporary anchors into the rock as you climb. These anchors can be anything from small metal pieces called “chocks” to larger pieces of equipment called “cams.” Trad climbers use ropes and other safety gear to protect themselves from falls, but the protection isn’t always 100% reliable—if an anchor fails, the climber could fall and be seriously injured or killed.
Sport climbing is a type of rock climbing that uses pre-placed bolts for protection. Sport climbers typically use less equipment than trad climbers, and the routes are often shorter and less complex. This type of rock climbing has become increasingly popular in recent years, especially indoors at specially built gyms.
The Benefits of Rock Climbing
Rock climbing is a great way to get exercise and enjoy the outdoors. It is also a great way to challenge yourself and push your limits. Rock climbing can be done alone or with a group, and it can be a great way to bond with friends or family.
Rock climbing is a strenuous sport that requires both physical strength and flexibility. The act of pulling yourself up using only your arms can build significant muscle, particularly in the upper body. As you climb, you also engage your core muscles to maintain balance and stability.
Climbing also requires a great deal of grip strength, which can improve your ability to grip other objects in your everyday life. In addition, the constant reaching and stretching involved in rock climbing can improve your flexibility and range of motion.
Mental Benefits: Rock climbing is not only a great physical activity, but it also provides many mental benefits. For starters, it helps to improve problem-solving skills. This is because climbers are constantly confronted with new challenges and must figure out the best way to overcome them. In addition, rock climbing can help to improve focus and concentration. This is because climbers need to be very aware of their surroundings and their own movements in order to stay safe. Lastly, rock climbing can also help to reduce stress and anxiety levels. This is because it is a great way to get out into nature and clear your mind.
The Different Types of Climbing Gear
Climbing Gaston can be a great way to get some exercise while enjoying the outdoors. There are different types of climbing gear that you can use depending on the type of climb you are doing. For instance, if you are doing a bouldering climb, you will need a different type of gear than if you are doing a sport climb. Let’s take a look at the different types of climbing gear.
Climbing shoes are an important part of any climber’s gear. They should fit snugly and be comfortable enough to wear for long periods of time. There are many different types of shoes on the market, and it is important to choose the right pair for your climbing style.
The most popular type of shoe is the all-purpose shoe. These shoes are designed to be comfortable and provide good traction on a variety of surfaces. All-purpose shoes are a good choice for beginner and intermediate climbers who are still working on developing their climbing technique.
More advanced climbers often prefer specialty shoes. These shoes are designed for specific types of climbs and may sacrifice comfort for performance. Climbers who frequently climb indoors or on artificial walls may prefer a more comfortable shoe that has less aggressive tread. Those who frequently climb outdoors on rough rock may prefer a shoe with tougher rubber that can stand up to more wear and tear.
It is also important to consider the climate when choosing climbing shoes. In warm weather, climbers may prefer a shoe with perforations or vents to help keep their feet cool and dry. In cold weather, a bootie can be worn over the shoe to provide extra warmth.
No matter what type of climbing you do, it is important to have a good pair of climbing shoes. The right pair of shoes will help you climb better and stay comfortable during long climbs.
Chalk is ground up magnesium carbonate, which climber’s use to keep their hands dry. It absorbs sweat and provides friction, which helps climbers maintain a grip on small holds. Most gym climbers use loose chalk, which they apply directly to their hands. Outdoor climbers often use chalk balls, which are small balls of cloth filled with chalk that can be carried in a pocket and applied to hands as needed.
Climbing chalk typically comes in two varieties: magnesia, which is finer and works best on sweaty hands, and calcite, which is coarser and better for dry conditions. Some brands of chalk also contain ingredients that improve the absorbency or add fragrance.
A harness is easily the most important piece of equipment for a climber. It is the one item that connects you to the rope, which in turn connects you to your climbing partner. A harness should be comfortable enough to wear for extended periods of time, yet secure enough to keep you safe in the event of a fall. There are many different types of harnesses on the market, and the type you choose will depend on your climbing style and preferences.
Carabiners are metal loops with sprung gates, used as connectors. The basic shape is oblong, but there are many variants. Carabiners are made from both steel and aluminium, and come in a variety of sizes and shapes. Steel carabiners are much heavier than aluminium ones. Smith Rock in Oregon is a famous US climbing area where only aluminium carabiners were allowed until 2009, to prevent damage to the rock. Nowadays, specialised steel carabiners exist which do not damage the rock when used for top roping (weight is held by the rope from above, as opposed to lead climbing where the climber hangs below the last placed piece of protection).
The largest carabiners (called belay or guide carabiners) are designed to be used as anchors, for example attaching a lanyard to a large boulder blocking a cave entrance. The gate is usually notched or grooved to accept either a rope or webbing strap. The smallest carabiners (called micros) are designed for use in keychain applications and connecting componentry in medical devices and laboratory instrumentation; their dimensions may be less than 10 millimetres (0.39 in) in some cases.
In rock climbing, ropes are used primarily for belaying and rappelling. A dynamic rope is used to arrest the fall of a lead climber, while a static rope is mainly used in belaying, to rappel, or to secure a fixed line.
Climbing ropes are typically of 2 different kinds, based on their construction:
Double braid rope: This rope has an inner and outer sheath, with the core running through the middle. The sheath is woven around the core in a figure-8 pattern. The advantage of this kind of rope is that it is relatively easy to handle, as well as being abrasion and cut resistant. However, it can be difficult to splice and does not have much stretch (elasticity).
Twisted core rope: This rope has an outer sheath with a twisted core running through the center. The advantage of this kind of rope is that it is very elastic, which makes it ideal for belaying lead climbers. It can also be easier to splice than a double braid rope. However, it is less abrasion and cut resistant, as well as being more difficult to handle.
Rock Climbing Techniques
Rock climbing is a challenging sport that requires both physical and mental strength. There are different techniques that climbers can use to make the ascent. One of the most important techniques is route finding. This involves figuring out the best way to ascend the rock face. climbers must also be able to use different types of equipment, such as carabiners, harnesses, and ropes.
In rock climbing, footwork is key. The proper technique can mean the difference between making it to the top of the rock face or not. Here are some tips on proper footwork:
- Remember to keep your weight centered over your feet at all times. This will help you maintain balance and avoid fatigue.
- When you are placing your feet, be sure to use all four points of contact (the balls of your feet and your toes) for maximum support.
- Always be aware of where your center of gravity is and adjust your feet accordingly. This will help you stay upright and avoid falls.
- To climb up a rock face, use a technique called the ” chimney.” This involves placing one foot on one side of the rock and the other foot on the other side, then using your back and legs to push yourself up.
- To climb down a rock face, use a technique called “rappelling.” This involves anchoring yourself to the top of the rock with a rope, then lowering yourself down controlled by braking with your hands on the rope.
One-handholds are the most basic handholds. They’re typically small (no bigger than your palm), and you grip them with just your fingers. These are often found on very easy routes and traverses.
Two-handholds are larger handholds that you can grip with both hands. These are more common on moderate to advanced routes.
Underclinging is when you grip a hold with your palm facing up, using your body weight to keep yourself in place. This technique is used on overhangs and roofs.
Pockets are small spaces in the rock that you can insert your fingers or hands into. Pockets are often deep, so you can get a good grip even if the holds are small.
Crimping is when you grip a hold with your fingertips pointing down, using the strength in your fingers to keep yourself in place. Crimping is often used on steep, difficult routes
Good balance is critical for rock climbing and can be the difference between conquering a difficult route and taking an unscheduled nap on the mat below. Here are some tips to help you find your center and improve your balance while rock climbing:
- Use your whole foot. When gripping the hold with your feet, make sure to use your entire foot — not just your toes — to maintain balance and prevent fatigue.
- Point your toes. Pointing your toes while climbing will help you keep your balance and conserve energy by using less muscle.
- Place your hands judiciously. Be strategic about where you place your hands while climbing. Not only will this help you maintain balance, but it will also give you more leverage to pull yourself up the wall.
- Look up. It may seem counterintuitive, but looking up instead of down will actually help you keep your balance while rock climbing. This is because it allows you to see where you’re going and plan your next move accordingly.
- Shift your weight slowly and deliberately. Sudden weight shifts can throw off your balance, so take care to move slowly and deliberately when adjusting your position on the wall.
Practicing these techniques will help you find your center and improve your balance while rock climbing, making it easier to conquer even the most challenging routes.
Whether you are bouldering or leading, your body position is key to your success and safety while rock climbing. Good body positioning will help you save energy, maintain balance, and keep your center of gravity over your feet. There are four main types of body positions you will use while rock climbing:
- The Stand: This is the basic position you start in when you first approach the rock. Your feet should be about shoulder-width apart, with your weight evenly distributed and your knees slightly bent. From here, you can move into any of the other positions.
- The Squat: This position is useful when you need to rest or when you are traversing across a slope. Drop down into a low squat, keeping your back straight and your knees bent. You can place your hands on your thighs for balance.
- The Lunge: This position is used when reaching for holds that are out of range from the stand or squat positions. Step forward with one leg and extend both arms out to reach the hold. You should try to keep your back straight and hips level as you lunge.
- The Layback: This position is used when ascending a crack in the rock face that is too wide to step across. Start in a standing position, then lean back and reach up with both hands to grab opposite sides of the crack. Try to keep your feet as close to the wall as possible as you pull yourself up.
Rock Climbing Gaston is a great way to get outside and enjoy the beauty of nature. It’s also a great workout and an opportunity to test your skills and limits. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced climber, there’s something for everyone on this challenging climb.

More than a logo: Our holistic Bayer brand, and how we can all support it
Did you know: Customers are 74% more likely to think positively about a product if they are aware that it is from Bayer? Or that a consistently applied brand expression can add a remarkable amount of value to our company? Learn more about how each of us can be part of the Bayer brand journey.
Think about how many times you experience the Bayer brand. Firstly, you will see the Bayer Cross almost daily – at offices, on physical and digital stationery, or when you open the BayerNet portal to receive the latest news from the Bayer universe. But our brand doesn’t end there: across various media (from website articles, social media posts, advertisements to photos and videos), you will recognize certain elements (visual, verbal, sonic, spatial) and an overall feel, which instantly says ‘Bayer’ to you.
This is what we mean when we talk about a ‘holistic brand expression’. In recent years, our company brand has evolved beyond simply being a name or a logo. Now, it’s represented in many multimedia forms: verbal and written language, photography, design, typography, spaces, events, audio and more.
As a result, the Bayer brand feels more tangible and alive as a full persona. It is something that all of us can see, hear, feel, and experience. And we can also contribute to and strengthen our brand, through our voice, communication, and everyday actions.
The elements of a holistic brand
Because our brand is so rich and multifaceted, we break it down into a four-part brand model, covering the principles and approaches behind it – so every Bayer colleague can gain a deeper understanding of who we are and where we are headed:
- Purpose ‘Science for a better life’ – explains why we do what we do. This is at the center of our model, surrounded by three other elements.
- Vision ‘Health for all, Hunger for none’ – our moonshot goal, spotlighting where we are headed in the long run
- Promise ‘Helping people and planet thrive’ – outlines what we do daily, expressing our commitment to making lives better and to foster sustainability for generations to come
- Personality ‘Visionary, optimistic and passionate’ – describes how we want to be perceived in the market. These are the attributes we aim to live and want to express in our attitude and actions. They help us bring to life our brand strategy of becoming a more dynamic, outward-oriented and human brand, driving brand likeability as our brand’s key growth area.
Our Global Brand Tracking proves that the market is responding to this strategy. In almost all countries, Bayer’s likeability is the most impactful driver to enhance desired stakeholder behaviors (willingness to engage, invest, purchase and recommend). Furthermore, respondents positively react to Bayer’s attractive brand appearance. A full summary of the data from our Global Brand Tracking studies 2022 is available here in the Identity Net.
What does this mean for you?
Bringing a holistic brand persona to life is a major step forward because it means we all own a piece of it. No longer is it pre-set and unchanging; instead, it is living and constantly evolving. The Bayer brand is on a continuous journey to adapt, transform, and get better – like we all are. Just as the Bayer Cross has come to stand for our values, everything you write, say, depict and do is a given opportunity to foster and grow our Bayer brand equity and value, ultimately unleashing its full potential.
That’s why you, as a member of #TeamBayer, are the most important part of our brand – because your actions turn it from a concept into a reality. Every time you create a new piece of content, devise a campaign, or even just start a conversation, you have a chance to represent ONE Bayer, and strengthen its positive associations in the minds of our stakeholders.
And these associations have positive outcomes for us: The latest Bayer Brand Uplift Study demonstrates that customers are on average 74% more likely to buy or recommend a product if they associate it with Bayer. Because of this, the rating agency Brand Finance just valued our brand at $5.45bn which represents a contribution of roughly 10% to our market capitalization, making us the world’s 5th most valuable Pharma brand and most valuable AgriScience brand. And that’s just the beginning: with the right treatment and consistent implementation, peer comparison and external data shows that the Bayer brand value has the potential to double and rise to $10bn over the coming years.
Let’s get started
Want to learn more about the brand and how to embody it? An array of resources is available on-demand on the Identity Net, the global branding hub for Bayer employees. Here you can check out the new Brand Academy for practical advice and learning sessions.
The Corporate Brand Management team is also available to answer your queries: Feel free to get in touch with them directly.

Kelly Osbourne and Sid Wilson’s red carpet debut at the 2024 Grammys was a captivating blend of glamour and family joy. As they continue to navigate parenthood and celebrate milestones with their son Sidney, the couple remains a delightful presence in the world of entertainment.
Stay tuned for more updates on this dynamic duo, and let the love and joy they share continue to inspire us all.
Kelly Osbourne Grammys
Kelly Osbourne, the renowned TV personality, and her boyfriend Sid Wilson, the Slipknot rocker, dazzled on the red carpet at the 2024 Grammys, marking their first public appearance together. The couple, who began their relationship in January 2022, made a striking entrance at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles for the prestigious awards ceremony.
While this red carpet-appearance was significant for the couple’s public debut, it also marked their first night out together as parents. Kelly Osbourne and Sid Wilson welcomed their son, Sidney, in 2022.
The joy of parenthood has been a central theme in their lives, and they have shared precious family moments on social media, including an adorable shot during a Christmas decoration-filled experience in Los Angeles.
Kelly Osbourne and Slipknot’s Sid Wilson’s Red Carpet Debut At Grammys
The 39-year-old Kelly Osbourne and the 47-year-old Sid Wilson embraced the spotlight with their monochromatic black looks. Osbourne’s strapless mermaid-style dress, featuring a mesh design at her chest and below her knees, perfectly complemented Wilson’s two-piece suit with sparkly pinstripe details.
Wilson’s choice of a full face mask resembling a gas mask added a unique touch to their ensemble, staying true to his Slipknot persona.
A Special Night for Slipknot
Sid Wilson, nominated for the best metal performance for Slipknot’s 2022 song “Hive Mind,” showcased his distinctive style on the red carpet. The colorful scarf adorned with insects, including a butterfly, added a pop of color to his look, making a statement alongside his fellow musicians.
A Magical Year of Parenthood
As the couple celebrated their son’s first birthday in November, Kelly Osbourne expressed her profound joy and gratitude on Instagram. In a heartfelt post, she shared, “This past year has been the most magical year of my life for one reason.
That reason is you, baby Sidney.” The post included a sweet snapshot of Sidney in the bath, capturing the essence of the magical bond between mother and son.
The Osbourne-Wilson family has been cherishing moments with their little one, including special times with grandparents. A heartwarming behind-the-scenes video shared by Kelly’s brother, Jack Osbourne, captured Sidney’s moment in his grandfather Ozzy Osbourne’s lap, soothingly settling down during a podcast recording.

Researchers report that small quantities of useful molecules such as hydrocarbons are produced when carbon dioxide and water react in the presence of light and a silver nanoparticle catalyst. Their validation study – made possible through the use of a high-resolution analytical technique – could pave the way for CO2-reduction technologies that allow industrial-scale production of renewable carbon-based fuels.
The study probes chemical activity at the surface of silver nanoparticle catalysts under visible light and uses carbon isotopes to track the origin and production of these previously undetected chemical reactions.
Sunlight-driven conversion of CO2 and water into energy-dense multicarbon compounds is a viable technology for renewable energy generation and chemical manufacturing. Because of this, researchers have been on the hunt for synthetic catalysts that facilitate large-scale CO2 reduction into multicarbon molecules, the study reports.
The scale of multicarbon molecule formation by using silver nanoparticle catalysts remains very small at this stage of the research. However, researchers can concentrate on developing improved synthetic catalysts and scaling up for industrial production, now that the promise of light-harvesting nanoparticles has been revealed.

Dengvaxia, Fear Factor and Political Games
THE DISCOVERY of Dengvaxia’s negative effects on some patients afflicted with dengue for the first time worked like a magnet for political gamesmanship. The report on the vaccine caused fear and panic among parents of immunized children. The emotional surge drew the worse kind of self-serving promotion on the part of some officials along with fault finding in the immunization campaign itself.
Some fundamentals relevant to the case should guide reporters: The vaccine has worked to prevent dengue infection in children, just judging from the lower number of reports on dengue deaths since the campaign began. This could be further validated by checking the record of cases in a number of hospitals around the country. Vaccine failure happens even in long established programs. Dengvaxia does not cause dengue. Only the mosquito bite causes the disease. The importance of dengue prevention has always been paramount in endemic areas.
“Pattern” according to PAO
Unfortunately, instead of medical and scientific knowledge that could guide the policy makers as well as the parents about how best to protect the children concerned, the matter was more avidly pursued for the possible crime with which to charge former public officials. Such investigations should be pursued as appropriate, but it should not get in the way of providing solid scientific findings.
Department of Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre directed the Public Attorney’s Office (PAO) on December 19, 2017 to extend free legal assistance in civil and criminal cases to all possible victims of injuries caused by vaccine related injuries, illnesses and death. The PAO office swooped on families of children who had died during a period and claimed that their autopsies implicated the vaccine in the deaths of five children.
On January 11, the Philippine Daily Inquirer reported PAO’s observation of the pattern in some of the deaths, providing it a banner lead story on the front pagewith the continuing story inside. (“Death of 5 children linked to Dengvaxia”) A photo of parents and relatives of the fatalities accompanied the rest of the story, filling almost half of the upper fold of page six. It cited the findings of Dr. Erwin Erfe, director of PAO’s forensic laboratory, on the massive bleeding in the brain, the lungs and enlarged organs of those who died. Erfe said the children fell ill after being vaccinated and died six months later.
At the end of the report, Secretary of Health Francisco Duque III was quoted saying: “Our panel of independent experts and the Philippine General Hospital have been tasked to monitor adverse events following immunization. We see [the] PAO’s efforts as complementary to our own and we would like to see the results of their probe.”
The Philippine Star and Manila Bulletin placed their reports on the front page (January 12) but led with Duque discussing the PAO’s findings, saying that DOH will compare this with the findings of UP-Philippine General Hospital when concluded.
Reports on PAO’s findings should have noted that these were not conclusive, and as such, should not have been given so much prominence, if it was to be reported at all, before the PGH experts were done with their investigation. Prominence given to inconclusive findings adds to the flow of misinformation
CMFR jeers TV Patrol segment “Kabayan Special Patrol: Disgrasya sa Dengvaxia” for its one-sided and highly sensationalized reporting on the alleged Dengvaxia deaths according to the PAO investigation. Aired from January 23 to February 3, the five-part series featured grief-stricken families of children who died, allegedly according to PAO, due to the vaccine. The reports showed distraught parents still in deep mourning. Interviewing children who had been inoculated, host Noli de Casto insinuated that they too could suffer the same fate. (“Batang hinihinalang namatay sa Dengvaxia, ‘pinag-eksperimentohan’?”)
Relying only on Dr.Erfe, the reports did not cite any DOH officials or any other medical expert who could evaluate the validity of the PAO claims. Reports of coroners were cited but with no explanation.
The Dengvaxia scare has already affected existing DOH-led vaccination programs. During a press conference, DOH Undersecretary Enrique Domingo said that immunization rates for polio, chicken pox, tetanus and other diseases have decreased significantly since December after news reported the negative effects of the dengue vaccine (“Dengvaxia row wreaks havoc on Philippine war on disease”)
Findings of PGH experts
On February 2, Domingo shared the initial results of the UP-PGH team tasked to investigate the deaths: three (3) out of 14 deaths were due to dengue despite immunization; nine (9) died due to other diseases developed after getting the vaccine, while the cause of two (2) deaths remain unknown. (“3 out of 14 kids died of dengue after Dengvaxia shot – UP-PGH panel”)
The media needs to remain vigilant and avoid spreading fear through alarmist, misleading, and poorly researched news. Scientific literacy is required in reporting issues of public health and disease prevention.

A Serious Position
Mr Edwin Steere the superintendent at the Gasworks, has for some days past been engaged with a workman in blocking up an escape of gas at the northern entrance to the church. He was found lying in the hole, which had been dug close to the gates in a state of insensibility, by the sexton (Mr William Bennett) on Saturday. Assistance having been procured, Mr Steere was speedily extricated from his dangerous position and conveyed home. Though he failed to recover consciousness for upwards of an hour, he is now rapidly improving.
The Sussex Advertiser, 15 January 1871
Photo (colourised): British Medical Services in the Second World War: Anaesthetists carrying out experiments using an improvised piece of apparatus to see whether it was possible to administer a general anaesthetic while the patient was wearing a gas mask. It was feared in the early days of the desert campaign that the Italians would use poison gas. Wikimedia Public domain image taken 18 October 1942.

The gorges of Vallone di Fassa are located to the west of Accadia, where the sources of the Frugno torrent emerge between white limestone walls.
At the bottom of the gorge the natural environment is characterized by small waterfalls and ponds, set between rock corridors smoothed by water and large limestone blocks.
The Gorges can be reached by following a path that starts from the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore and runs along the bed of the river Frugno. The excursion is not difficult, but it is advisable to be accompanied by local guides. Right in the point where the two rocky walls glimpsed from afar intersect the stream Frugno, creating one of the most evocative landscapes of the Monti Dauni. Behind the gorges a rich vegetation of oaks and oaks makes the color of the gorges even more candid. The bottom of the gorge is dominated, during the summer, by the green vegetation, interrupted by the bright colors of the wild orchids and the lilies of the woods, animated by amphibians and insects, especially dragonflies and butterflies. In autumn, however, the path of the Frugno torrent, which is framed by a "gallery forest" consisting mainly of willows and poplars, offers views of unforgettable colors.

Mozilla’s weekend from hell started at midnight on Friday, when an internal blunder caused all add-ons to be automatically disabled for all Firefox users, across all platforms.
This effectively broke the browser for many who rely on improving or correcting its functionality through the use of extensions, causing an online outcry, and Mozilla scrambling to fix the issue – an effort that continued into Sunday.
The question now is what the company can do beyond rolling out an update to correct the unmitigated disaster?
The question of reassuring users of future credibility and reliability of Firefox is especially important given that the browser, once the leader, has been steadily losing ground to Google’s Chrome. Not to mention that that the direction Mozilla have been taking, affecting user choice and privacy over the past several years, has been testing the patience of even the most loyal userbase.
One of these decisions has been to introduce mandatory add-on signing since version 48 as a means to verify them. This at the time broke many extensions and shifted control away from Firefox users, and to the company behind it, as users could no longer choose to run extensions regardless. This was also at the heart of the embarrassing event this weekend, that exposed the maker of nothing less than a browser as not competent enough to properly manage security certificates.
One immediate suggestion is reversing this policy in order to make sure such mistakes don’t happen again. This would be done by giving users the choice to allow add-ons to install and run even if security certificates were unavailable. And because Mozilla markets Firefox as a browser that, unlike its main competition, gives users choice, such policy would suit it considerably better than the one currently is place.
In addition, the article urges a high degree of transparency over what happened on Friday: explaining to users why and how such a thing could occur, and what Mozilla plans to do to make sure it never happens again.

Supervisor taking superintendent to court
Published 11:20 am Wednesday, December 16, 2020
Southampton County Supervisor Christopher D. Cornwell Sr. and Southampton County Public Schools (SCPS) Superintendent Dr. Gwendolyn Shannon are scheduled to meet in county district court this Friday at 9 a.m. He had her served with a writ of mandamus on Monday. That’s essentially defined as a judicial command to an inferior court or ordering a person to perform a public or statutory duty.”
Cornwell is exasperated by what he perceives as a continued lack of response from the SCPS board regarding fellow supervisors’ questions on the school roof restoration project. At the Board of Supervisors (BOS) meeting in October, members such as chairman Dr. Alan Edwards expressed disappointment that no representatives were present.
So a formal request was made by the BOS on Nov. 6, only to get a reply four days later that, “A representative of the Southampton County School Board will not be available to give a presentation on the school division’s roofing project at the Nov. 24 meeting of the Board of Supervisors.”
Two days later, he formally sent a letter to Shannon asking for “as a matter of public interest and concern” copies of all printed and electronic materials dating Jan. 1, 2019, regarding “’Roof(s),’ ‘Roof(ing) Estimate,’ ‘Roof Bid,’ ‘Awarded Roof Contract,’ ‘Roof Warranty,’ ‘Roof(ing) Maintenance,’ ‘Leaking,’ ‘Board of Supervisors,’ ‘School Project,’ ‘local funding,’ ‘COVID CARES Act,’ ‘acquiring, constructing, designing, equipping, replacing or renovating the roofs’ and ‘Reroofing and repair work at various schools RFP.’”
He said that by the end of five business days later, sans holiday, he had not on Dec. 4 gotten any response as required by Virginia Code 2.2-3704(B).
The supervisors told The Tidewater News, “The BOS allocated to them [SCPS] roughly $5,000,000 for school roof replacements and upgrades. The work was completed during the summer of 2019, yet we hear a resounding message from interested parties within the system that some of them are still leaking, in some cases worse than before. Despite our best amicable efforts, they are for some reason seemingly unwilling to provide us [the BOS] with an update on the situation.”
Cornwell said he regards SCPS’ silence as “blatant disregard by officials for Virginia Law, specifically Gwendolyn Shannon, pursuant to Code Section §2.2-3700, The Freedom of Information Act.”
So he followed Virginia Code 2.2-3713(A) as an enforcement: “Any person … denied the rights and privileges conferred by this chapter may proceed to enforce such rights and privileges by filing a petition for mandamus or injunction, supported by an affidavit showing good cause. ”
He continued, “We were elected by the people to be good, fiscally responsible, stewards of their hard-earned tax dollars, and that’s what I aim to do. Accountability and transparency within our government is paramount. The mere fact that one has to go to these length’s to obtain information that rightfully belongs to the public that we serve is appalling.”
At the SCPS meeting on Monday, Will Melbye, coordinator of auxiliary services and transportation, gave an update on facilities. For example, a new leak was found at Capron Elementary School, which was attributed to a broken nail. Leaks at Meherrin Elementary and Riverdale were attributed not to any faulty roofing, but to HVAC issues, such as a broken pipe. AirTech, the company that repaired or replaced roofs, corrected the issues there, as well as at Southampton High School and the Vo-Tech center.
After the school board meeting, Shannon was asked if she had any comment to make then, but she declined. On Tuesday, she again chose not to comment other than to state the “Southampton County Public School Division does not comment on pending litigation.”

I had Mark and his crew remove three trees in my yard. The crew did a great job paying close attention to detail making sure they didn’t drop even a branch on our house. Will definitely have them back out this year to do some trimming on another tree. Mark and the crew were very knowledgeable and made sure i knew exactly what was going on throughout the whole process. Would highly recommend this company.

Laurentian Valley, ON (March 23, 2023) – The Ottawa Valley Waste Recovery Centre (OVWRC) is reminding you that there is an easy way to find out what goes where when it comes to recycling, compost or garbage. Residents of Petawawa, Pembroke, Laurentian Valley and North Algona Wilberforce can search 100’s of items on-line to see if something can be recycled, composted, reused or disposed of.
The on-line search tool was launched in 2019 and since then over 12,000 users have searched for almost 20,000 items. Sue McCrae, OVWRC General Manager explains why this tool has been a valuable part of the Centre’s education program. “It’s important to make sure residents have all the information they need to participate in the local waste management programs. Residents can enter everything from aerosol cans to yarn and the search tool will explain how to properly dispose of those materials.”
Currently, the top five searched items are Styrofoam, plastic bags, furniture, corrugated cardboard and milk cartons. McCrae explains how that information is used. “Knowing that Styrofoam is the number one searched item tells us that residents need more information on how to dispose of it in our area. This allows us to increase our radio, newspaper and electronic messaging on this material type. Styrofoam is not recyclable in our program and must be placed in regular garbage.”
Elizabeth Graham, Communications Officer at the Ottawa Valley Waste Recovery Centre reviews the data provided by the search tool and is pleased to see the searches are reflective of current waste management programming. “In December, wrapping paper was in the top 10 searched items and recently, with the launch of the new light bulb recycling program, LED bulb was in the top 10. That shows us that people are using the tool for seasonal items and to access new program information which is very important to the overall success of our waste management programs”.
Laurentian Valley Mayor Steve Bennett, who is Chair of the Ottawa Valley Waste Management Board, is pleased that a digital method for residents to receive information on recycling is proving to be popular. “It’s great to see the Centre providing residents with an easy-to-use on-line search tool. It allows residents to find out the right information quickly and easily so they can make sure they are sorting their waste correctly.”
The search tool is designed and built by technology company ReCollect and similar search tools are in use across North America. The What Goes Where search tool can be accessed here. It can be accessed both on desktop and mobile devices. For those not able to access the search tool on-line, a printed waste sorting guide is available with the 2023/2024 collection schedules which were distributed in March.

Caring for the Wildlife That Stray Into the Suburbs
It’s baby-animal season in the towns north of New York. But with many of the mothers gone missing, humans are stepping in to help out.
Fawns rescued by Animal Nation, a nonprofit animal-rescue group in Rye, N.Y. When the facility is overcrowded, Patrick Moore, the group’s volunteer president, harbors baby deer in his home shower.
Text by Sabrina Imbler
Photographs by Linda Kuo
A fawn’s first role model is the forest floor. The white spots on its brown coat resemble the dappled beams of sunlight that cascade through the trees, breaking up the outline of the deer’s figure. The camouflage helps keep baby white-tailed deer safe from bears and bobcats as the mother doe forages elsewhere.
While its mother is away, the fawn hides in tall grass and remains vigilant — eyes open and ears pricked, listening for movement. When the doe returns, she feeds her baby milk and licks it all over to remove its scent. She licks its genital areas to coax the fawn to urinate or defecate, and then she may even eat its waste. Her cleaning ensures that predators will not detect a whiff of her baby.
But sometimes the doe does not return — hit by a car, perhaps. If the fawn is left alone for too long, its ears curl up, a sign of dehydration, and flies may cloud around its uncleaned body, drawing attention. The youngest deer are often too weak to stand, and in New York’s Westchester County, many are found beside the bodies of their dead mothers on the side of the road, according to Patrick Moore, the president of Animal Nation, a nonprofit animal-rescue group based in Rye, N.Y.
Fortunately, Mr. Moore knows how to be a doe. If the facility at Animal Nation is overcrowded, which it often is, Mr. Moore will harbor the fawns in his home bathroom. There, he cleans them, wiping away any maggots that may have hatched from eggs laid in the deers’ waste. Every two to four hours, he feeds the fawns goat milk. He will rub the fawns’ anal regions to encourage them to produce waste, his fingers miming a mother’s tongue.
“The hardest thing is not letting them imprint,” Mr. Moore said. A cuddled baby deer can easily come to think of itself as a human, too, making it difficult to release the animal back into the wild. So Mr. Moore is swift and silent with his work. He keeps orphaned fawns together so they can bond with their own kind. During baby season, which peaks from May to September, he rarely gets more than four hours of sleep at a time.

After all, baby season is more than fawns. There are baby groundhogs, baby hawks, baby great horned owls and baby squirrels, which arrive in multiple litters from spring to fall. Many are injured and diseased, and most are unable to fend for themselves.
Their cases illustrate the ongoing tension between the suburban and the wild, and the tragicomic interactions that can ensue. Even as Mr. Moore tends fawns in his shower, many suburbs are struggling to lower their deer populations. In New York, a deer-vehicle automobile collision occurs every eight minutes, with 9,700 from October through December of 2016, according to analysis of New York Crash Data by AAA Northeast. The ungulates can also destroy gardens, feed on crops and spread Lyme disease.
Although he is president of Animal Nation, Mr. Moore is an unpaid volunteer. He has a full-time job as a firefighter in the Bronx. This cumulative rescue work is exhausting, and Mr. Moore is burned out. But if there is space in his own home, he can’t help but help the animals. “People say, ‘Let me visit your facility,’” he said. “And I say, ‘You’re coming to my bathroom.’”
Stranded creatures everywhere
Animal Nation, one of the few rehabilitation centers in Westchester, often reaches capacity and has to stop taking in new creatures before the end of the year. But calls skyrocketed during the pandemic, as people once cocooned in offices began spending more time outside. They found fawns orphaned near bike trails and fledglings fallen from their nests. Many city residents moved to the suburbs, and some first-time homeowners were greeted by attic-bound swarms of bats or flying squirrels, according to Jim Horton, the owner of QualityPro Pest & Wildlife Services in Hawthorne, N.Y.
Some wildlife-control specialists euthanize so-called nuisance animals, but Mr. Horton takes the animals he relocates to rehabbers. He also assists Animal Nation on many of its more difficult calls. A few weeks ago, Mr. Horton climbed a 40-foot ladder to pull a baby raccoon out of a tree. Earlier this year, he rounded up a family of swans trying to cross a parkway and dropped them off at a nearby lake. He was also called out to aid a bald eagle that someone thought was hit by a car, but turned out to have lead poisoning.

Many of the calls that Animal Nation receives pertain to baby animals in no distress at all. Last week, someone called Mr. Horton about a baby bird she had found in her yard and placed in a box. Mr. Horton had a hunch that the bird’s mother might have been nearby, so he took the bird back outdoors and out of the box; like clockwork, the mother robin flew down to feed her newly freed chick.
This mistake often happens with fawns left by their mothers in backyards, which can appear abandoned to the well-intentioned onlooker. “In the case of humans, the enemy of your enemy is your friend,” said Asia Murphy, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who has used camera traps to study fawns in Pennsylvania. Coyotes, bobcats and black bears avoid humans, so living alongside people can offer additional safety to a deer, Dr. Murphy said.
When Mr. Horton gets a call about a fawn, he asks about its ears (are they curled?) and its hygiene (are there flies?). If both answers are no, Mr. Horton advises the caller to leave the fawn alone for the night; more often than not, the mother doe will move her baby to a new spot the next day.
The year of the parasite
In any given year, wildlife rehabbers can never predict what kinds of calls might come in more often. This year appears to be the year of the parasite, Mr. Moore said. He and other rehabbers are overloaded with waterfowl riddled with gapeworm, a parasite that lives and breeds in a bird’s trachea and causes it to gasp or shake its head. Many of the fawns that the group has taken in have E. coli and consequently suffer from diarrhea. Mr. Moore suspects that the baby deer get it from the soil they eat.
“We have this perfect hot, humid, wet summer, which is what parasites thrive in,” Mr. Moore said, adding that the winters that used to freeze and kill off soil-bound parasites each year are growing warmer.

Mr. Moore first became a licensed wildlife rehabilitator in New York State at 16 and hand-fed baby birds in his mother’s house. Back then, he wanted to help every animal he possibly could.
Now, at 32, he yearns for more systemic change. “People call you for that one little fawn,” he said. “But are we doing tons of research and are we keeping good track of what animals have what problems?” Mr. Moore often sends samples to state-run pathology labs. But resources are limited, especially for species that are considered invasive or populations that are not threatened. There is always money and concern for bald eagles and peregrine falcons, but less so for squirrels and deer, Mr. Moore said.
When licensed wildlife rehabilitators in New York work with an animal that is too weak to recover, the only legal way they can euthanize the animal is by breaking its neck. Mr. Moore has never done this, he said, opting instead to work with veterinarians who offer their time pro bono.
For some of the animals that Animal Nation takes in, euthanasia is the most humane option. Mr. Horton recently received a call about a fawn abandoned on the football field at Pace University. From a distance, the fawn appeared fine. But as Mr. Horton approached it, the young deer stood up and revealed a twist in its neck: a birth defect, and the reason its mother abandoned it. Mr. Horton picked up the fawn and put it on the floor mat of his car’s passenger seat, where it curled up while he drove. The fawn’s birth defect meant it had to be euthanized.
Some fly away, others returnA rehabilitated barred owl prepares for release.
The volunteers of Animal Nation receive up to 100 calls a day, and it is impossible to answer them all. As we spoke on the phone, a beleaguered Mr. Moore had just received a call about a baby pigeon in nearby Putnam County. He was also waiting to hear whether a rescued raptor could be admitted to The Raptor Trust center in Millington, N.J., an hour’s drive away. The facility, which has spacious flying enclosures to help injured birds learn to fly properly, has a waiting list.
“I don’t want to give up on the little critters,” Mr. Moore said. But his 16-year-old self would not have necessarily signed up for this unsustainable workload. “We need paid rehabbers,” he said. “We need paid staff. We’re doing the best we can.”
As baby season ekes on, the fawns at Animal Nation will continue to wean and grow steadier on their once-wobbly legs. The state requires all deer to be released by Sept. 10, so Mr. Moore plans to do a soft release of the fawns in August. “We open the doors and continue to feed them,” he said. “We let them come and go as they need.”
Many of the animals that pass through the doors of Animal Nation will leave the facility never to be seen again. Birds fly away. “Possums couldn’t give a damn about you,” Mr. Moore said.
Others, such as food-seeking squirrels, know to come back. And sometimes the fawns return to Animal Nation as early as the following year, their legs broken by cars. Mr. Moore said that it was easy to spot a mature deer he rehabilitated as a fawn. “They’ll come closer than a deer should,” he said. “And you know it’s your baby.”

It’s been a good decade or so for the makers of plastic lenses. In recent years, smartphone manufactures have been adding camera modules, going from one to two to five or more. And each of those camera modules contains several plastic lenses. Over the years, these lenses have changed little, though image processing software has improved a lot, merging images from multiple camera modules into one high quality picture and enabling selective focus and other features.
The glory days of the plastic camera lens, however, may be drawing to a close. At least that’s the hope of Metalenz, a Boston-area startup that officially took its wraps off today.
The company aims to replace plastic lenses with waveguides built out of silicon nanostructures using traditional semiconductor processing techniques. Metalenz’s technology grew out of work done at Harvard’s John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Harvard is not the only university laboratory that has investigated metastructures for use as optical wave guides— Columbia, the University of Michigan, and King Abdulla University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia are among the institutions with teams researching the technology. However, Harvard’s team, led by applied physics professor Federico Capasso, was the first group to be able to focus the full spectrum of visible light using a metalens.
Capasso cofounded Metalenz in 2017 with Robert Devlin, who worked on the Harvard project as part of his Ph.D. research. The company has an exclusive license to Harvard’s patents related to metalenses.
Devlin says that a metalens has several advantages.
“Producing a lens via semiconductor processes reduces the complexity of what is now a multistep process to build a camera module. And it could lead to much smaller modules, with the lens attaching directly to the surface of the sensor, instead of using more complex packaging methods,” he says.
Also, Devlin pointed out, “with a variety of these structures on the same chip, one metalens can act like multiple plastic lenses, allowing the image processing software to combine images to improve image quality in the same way it combines images from separate camera modules today.”
Metalenz has raised $10 million to scale up production of its devices, with investors including 3M Ventures, Applied Ventures, Intel Capital, M Ventures, and TDK Ventures. The company expects to ship its first chips in early 2022. These will be for use in 3D imaging.
“3D cameras are even more complex than traditional cameras,” says Devlin. “They have multiple lenses, sometimes made by different suppliers, and a laser that illuminates the scene. We bring less complexity, and, because we can get more light to the sensor, the laser doesn’t have to be as bright or shine as long, so we can increase battery life.”
For now, Metalenz is aiming to replace the existing camera modules in cell phones, But Devlin anticipates that in the future, the technology will allow new imaging tools to move into mobile devices.
“We can combine different types of optics in a single layer, so things that now are too big and bulky to leave a lab or medical facility because they contain many large lenses—like a spectrometer—can shrink down to a size and price point that will allow them to fit in anybody’s pocket.”

The show car is a systematic development of the Audi design language. It combines a host of visual elements from future sports car models with the Audi-typical allroad concept and independent “Shooting Brake” body form.
Measuring 4.20 meters (13.78 feet) in length, the Audi has a powerful road stance. Precise and clearly drawn lines as well as geometric surfaces are combined to create a sculptured, clear design form. It is almost as if the outer skin of the two-door car has been modeled from a solid piece, from the Singleframe grille and striking side tornado line to the taut, coupé-like rear. The overhangs are short; the roof line is low and it ends in a strong C pillar. The pronounced horizontal body line and the large 19-inch wheels emphasize the impression of concentrated energy.
The show car is a compelling blend of form and function. The characteristic allroad design features reduce the volume and underscore its offroad character. The aluminum underbody guard at front and rear emphasizes the width and protects the car off road.
Design elements that are typical of e-tron models, such as the ribs in the Singleframe grille and in the side air inlets, fit in harmoniously with the overall design concept. The dual headlights and the honeycomb-structured Singleframe grille indicate the further development of the quattro design language which Audi already presented with its Sport quattro concept show car in September of this year at the International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt.

Nire iritzia urrunetik hasiko dut. Hogeita hamar urte bete eta berehala hasi nintzen hanketan minak izaten. Luzaroan, min larria sentitzea ez zen desagertu dendara ohiko bidaia egin ondoren ere, eta hori guztia lanagatik oinetako deserosoekin asko egon behar izan nuelako. Astebete igaro ondoren, min gogaikarri hori areagotu besterik ez zen egin, eta ezinezkoa bihurtu zen hura jasatea. Egin nuen lehenengo gauza barizeen aurkako gel eraginkorrak aurkitzea izan zen, baina ez zuen arrakastarik izan. Eraginak ordu bat edo bi iraun zuen, eta orduan mina itzuli zen.
Nahi gabe ikusi nuen sareetan NanoVein gel-erako iragarki-pankarta eta agindu nuen, oraingoan azkenean zortea izango nuela espero nuen. Nire harridurarako, gelaren aplikazioa hanketako eremuetan nahikoa izan zen niretzat, eta mina egun batzuetan desagertu zen. Orduan, argibideak irakurtzera lasterka nengoen barizeak guztiz kentzeko erremedio nola erabili ulertzeko. Paketean errezeta hartuta, kapsulak hartzen eta sendagaiaren konplexu guztia behar bezala erabiltzen hasi zen.
Tresnak ikastaroan zehar egindako ekintza baldintzapean hainbat alditan bana daiteke.
Ikastaroa amaitu ondoren, konturatu nintzen jada ez dudala analgésikoekin bizi behar edo nire lana utzi behar. Arazoa konpondu zen, eta ez nioke inori esperientzia hori opatuko; beraz, hanketan mina sentitu bezain laster, kalitate handiko gel bat eskatu berehala barizeen aurka, nire kasuan NanoVein da.

Watch the Chinatown Canada documentary on OMNI TV tonight
Saturday, Aug 21 at 8pm PST on Omni News (BC)
Todd Wong is interviewed about Vancouver Chinatown and see the Gung Haggis Fat Choy dragon boat team in action at '09 Rio Tinto Alcan Dragon Boat Festival.
The footage was shot last June, when Kerry Beattie contacted me. I recommended a number of people for them to talk to including Andrew Wong of Wild Rice Restaurant (Andrew's grandfather used to own the Lotus Hotel, where my grandfather Sonny Wong ran the Lotus Cafe Restaurant), and Shirley Chan and many others.

Sleep behaviors are among the most common concerns that parents of young children bring to their physicians. A child who goes to bed unwillingly or wakes frequently during the night can be highly disruptive to a family. Sleep disorders in children, if confirmed by reproducible findings in a sleep laboratory, are not appreciably different from those occurring in adults. However, sleep problems, defined as a sleep pattern that is unsatisfactory to the parents, child or physician, are far more common.
Defining disordered sleep behavior is difficult because of important differences in sleep patterns that occur at different developmental stages. Thus, it is not considered abnormal when a two-month-old infant wakes frequently in the night, but it is considered abnormal in a two-year-old child. To make the definition of sleep problems even more difficult, families vary greatly in their tolerance of their children's sleeping habits; what one family finds problematic, another family takes as a matter of course.
Helping a family resolve a child's sleep problem is satisfying for a family physician and worth the time spent taking a careful history.
Normal Sleep in Children
Early-infant sleep is quite different from the sleep of adults. Infants younger than six months spend 50 percent of their sleep time in active rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep, compared with 20 percent in adults. Infants enter sleep through an initial active REM stage, in contrast to adults, who don't commonly enter REM sleep until 90 minutes into the sleep cycle. Active REM emerges more often during a sleep cycle in infants, resulting in shorter sleep cycles. Until six months of age, quiet REM (also known as quiet or indeterminate sleep) cannot be subdivided into the four electroencephalographic (EEG) stages known in the mature sleep pattern.
By six months, the infant's sleep architecture closely resembles that of an adult's. After an initial “settling” period that typically takes 10 to 20 minutes, the infant drifts from stage 1 non-REM (NREM) sleep into stage 3 or 4. The infant may return to stage 1 and cycle again. After one to two cycles of NREM sleep, REM is entered at about 60 to 90 minutes. The first one third of the night is mostly deep sleep (NREM stages 3 and 4). The last one half of the night is predominately stage 2 NREM and REM.
In newborns, the amount of sleep is divided fairly equally between night and day. Nighttime sleep gradually becomes consolidated over the first year into a single uninterrupted block of time, and daytime sleep gradually decreases over the first three years (Figure 1).1 By the age of four, most children no longer require a daytime nap. Nighttime sleep requirements also gradually decrease, so that by adolescence they are similar to the sleep needs of an adult.
Scope of the Problem
Parents of young children are eager to know when they can expect their child to sleep through the night. Research has provided divergent answers because different populations have been examined, different definitions used for “waking” and different techniques used to obtain results. As a rule, the frequency of night waking starts at 100 percent in newborns and tails off to approximately 20 to 30 percent in six-month-olds. Sleeping through the night is a milestone that is not always maintained once it has been reached. Children who previously slept through the night can sometimes resume night awakening, usually because of social factors rather than maturational ones.
Parasomnias are sleep disorders characterized by abnormal polysomnography. They are episodic in nature and are a reflection of central nervous system (CNS) immaturity. Thus, they are more common in children than in adults and are generally outgrown with time. There is often a family history positive for these parasomnias.
As a group, these disorders are paroxysmal, predictable in their appearance in the sleep cycle, nonresponsive to environmental manipulation and characterized by retrograde amnesia. The diagnosis is often made by means of a thorough history. An extensive work-up is seldom necessary.
‘Pavor Nocturnus’ or Night Terrors
Pavor nocturnus (night terrors) occur approximately 90 minutes into sleep during stage 3 or 4 NREM sleep. The child suddenly sits bolt upright and screams, and is inconsolable for up to 30 minutes before relaxing and falling back to sleep. Tachycardia, tachypnea and other signs of full-fledged autonomic arousal are apparent.
Night terrors usually occur in children three to eight years of age. They need to be distinguished from nightmares (Table 1). They are more likely to occur during times of stress or fatigue. As frightening as they are, parents and children usually only need to be reassured that they are generally self-limiting. Attempts should be made to alleviate whatever stress may be going on in the child's environment and to ensure that the child is getting adequate rest. In children for whom night terrors are not self-limiting or are especially disruptive, diazepam (Valium) has been used with some success.

Somnambulism and Somniloquy
In somnambulism (sleepwalking) and somniloquy (sleeptalking), a child sits up in bed with eyes open but is “unseeing.” Activity may range from a purposeless restlessness in bed to actual walking through the house. Speech is mumbled and slurred, and is rarely intelligible.
These disorders occur in the school-aged child, more often in boys than in girls, and are often associated with enuresis. Sleepwalkers have the potential for physical harm, and parents must take steps to avoid unsafe situations, such as falling from balconies or down stairs. Bedrooms for sleepwalkers should be on the first floor of the home, and windows and doors must be firmly secured. When confronting a sleepwalking child, parents should keep interventions to a minimum and refrain from shaking, slapping or shouting at the child. These sleep behaviors are usually outgrown by adolescence and generally do not require any intervention other than those mentioned above.
Another intervention that proved effective in one study4 was scheduled awakenings. Parents kept a diary of the time of sleepwalking over several nights and then began to waken the child 15 minutes before the sleepwalking had been occurring, making sure the child was fully awake for at least five minutes. With the use of this technique, sleepwalking was quickly extinguished in more than 80 percent of children.
Nocturnal enuresis, or bed-wetting, is one of the most prevalent and persistent sleep problems in children. Enuresis is classed as primary when the child has never been persistently dry through the night and as secondary when the child starts wetting the bed after one year of continence. Primary enuresis is much more common and less likely to have a pathologic cause.
The etiology of primary enuresis is likely to be multifactorial. A strong family history of enuresis is often present. Achieving continence is also maturational, and children who lag developmentally at one and three years of age are more likely to be enuretic at age six. Enuretic children have been found to have a lower functional bladder capacity (the volume of urine a bladder can hold before starting to empty) than children without enuresis, although their true bladder capacity is no different.
Lastly, enuresis is widely regarded as a parasomnia by most sleep researchers because it occurs only during NREM sleep. However, despite parental beliefs, enuretic children are not more difficult to waken than their peers without enuresis.
Other than a thorough history and physical examination with attention to abdominal and neurologic examinations and a urinalysis, an in-depth diagnostic work-up is not indicated in the absence of significant signs and symptoms that suggest anything other than simple, sleep-related enuresis.
Behavioral interventions, such as limiting intake of fluids in the evening and waking the child to use the bathroom before the parent goes to bed have often been tried before the family comes to the physician. Although physicians have sometimes turned to medications, such as imipramine (Tofranil) and desmopressin (DDAVP) as a next step, multiple studies5 have demonstrated the superiority of bed-wetting alarms in terms of cure rates, lack of side effects and low relapse rates. These devices are available through medical supply stores or can be ordered over the Internet.
“Continence training” entails several techniques that are beyond the scope of this article. Readers are referred to the excellent chapter on nocturnal enuresis by Sheldon.6
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is thought to affect 1 to 3 percent of children. Symptoms include snoring, difficulty breathing during sleep or mouth breathing during sleep. Parents of infants with significant OSAS may report difficulty with feeding. OSAS in children is frequently caused by adenotonsillar hypertrophy. Other causes include craniofacial abnormalities, obesity and neuromuscular disease. A high prevalence of allergic disease among children with snoring and OSAS has been reported.7
In adults with sleep apnea, the airway obstruction is intermittent and often profound. In children, because the etiology is adenotonsillar hypertrophy, the obstruction is persistent and, usually, less profound. Children do not often experience the hypersomnolence that occurs in adults but more often present with enuresis, excessive sweating or developmental delay. Emerging evidence links OSAS with a subset of older children who have learning or behavior difficulties, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.8,9
The diagnosis of OSAS is made in a pediatric sleep laboratory using nocturnal oximetry and polysomnography. Most of these children will experience significant relief from their symptoms following tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy.10 Children whose OSAS has an etiology other than adenotonsillar hypertrophy (e.g., obesity, craniofacial abnormalities, neuromuscular weakness) will not benefit from tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. Those who experience only partial relief from tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy and those who have other etiologies may benefit from nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), which has been found to be safe and effective in children.11
Narcolepsy is uncommon in children but may sometimes occur in adolescence. The predominant symptom, as in adults, is excessive daytime sleepiness. Understandably, this can be disabling for children who have academic demands. Children do not experience cataplexy or hypnagogic hallucination as frequently as adults do.12
Initially, children with narcolepsy have great difficulty getting up in the mornings. When awakened, the child may appear to be confused or may be aggressive or verbally abusive. The diagnosis may be elusive; the initial polysomnographic study may be normal. Serial evaluations are required if the diagnosis is strongly suspected. These children benefit from regularly scheduled naps. Often, stimulant medication will be required. Because this is a lifetime disease with a potential for significant morbidity, children with narcolepsy should be followed by a sleep specialist.
Secondary Sleep Disturbances
These sleep disturbances are much more common than primary disorders and are characterized by normal polysomnography. The disrupted sleep pattern is often transient, but there is potential for much distress in the family when it persists. The most frequently encountered secondary sleep disturbances are night awakenings and bedtime resistance, which occur most commonly in toddlers and preschool-aged children.
Although 95 percent of newborns cry after a nighttime awakening and require parental response before returning to sleep, by one year of age, 60 to 70 percent of infants will be able to self-soothe if given the chance.13 The concept of sleep-onset associations is an important one. A child who is put to bed still awake and learns to fall asleep using self-comforting measures is often able to calm herself and return to sleep when she rouses in the middle of the night as most children and adults do.
On the other hand, a child who falls asleep accompanied by some parental behavior, such as rocking or being physically present, may sometimes have difficulty going back to sleep when he or she wakes up alone in the middle of the night. For this reason, parents may want to consider a trial of discontinuing rocking the child to sleep, or stop allowing a child to fall asleep somewhere other than his or her crib (such as a swing, a car seat or the parent's bed). They can try waiting a short while before responding to a child who stirs or cries in the night to help train the child to self-soothe back to sleep. Given the opportunity, many children will learn to settle themselves back to sleep without intervention by their parents.
‘COLIC’ AND NIGHT AWAKENINGS
Colic is often the bane of a new parent's existence. While colic is not a sleep problem per se, colicky infants appear to have a shorter duration of total sleep. Sleep problems may sometimes persist after the child has outgrown colic because the strategies that parents developed to decrease the crying spells (i.e., frequent holding, car rides) interfere with the adoption of normal sleep patterns.14
An infant older than four months who continues to wake during the night is considered a trained night crier. These infants calm quickly when picked up. Some people believe that this pattern develops because parents provide secondary gain for continued awakening. One approach that can be taken is to support parents in ignoring the child's cries for progressively longer intervals; they may also choose to stop responding to the crying child “cold turkey.” Either strategy can make for a few difficult nights but may succeed in “training” the child to return to sleep on his or her own. Ferber is best known for the progressive ignoring approach.1
Another technique that has been found to be effective and is more acceptable for some parents is scheduled awakenings. Parents waken the child at scheduled times, shortly before anticipated awakenings. As the frequency of spontaneous awakenings decreases, the length of intervals between scheduled awakenings can be increased. Eventually, the spontaneous awakenings subside, and the scheduled awakening can be discontinued.
DISORDERS OF INITIATING AND MAINTAINING SLEEP (DIMS)
Toddlers and preschoolers begin to have more problems with disorders of initiating and maintaining sleep (DIMS). These children are dealing with significant development issues of autonomy, separation and object permanence. Sometimes parents have trouble setting firm limits and accede to the child's demands for one more drink of water or one more story.
The author recommends that parents deal with attempts to delay bedtime by calmly, but firmly, ignoring the child's protests. Further confrontation is avoided by telling the child that, as long as he or she lies in bed, the door to the bedroom can be kept open, but whenever he or she gets out of bed, the door will be closed (but not locked).
Initially, parents will need to stand by the door, perhaps even holding it closed, but be available to open it as soon as the child gets back in bed.
A recent article15 described a technique that uses a “bedtime pass,” a file card with the child's name printed at the top. The pass can be exchanged without penalty for one short visit outside the bedroom per evening and then is surrendered to the parent for the remainder of the evening.
For children who have difficulty falling asleep, developing a predictable bedtime routine (e.g., three to four components lasting 20 to 30 minutes, such as a story, a song, a drink and a back rub) and using it consistently is helpful. The onset of the routine can be gradually moved earlier and earlier in the evening until the child is going to bed at the desired time. The use of transitional objects such as blankets or stuffed animals may also be helpful.16
SLEEP PROBLEMS IN OLDER CHILDREN
In pre-adolescents and adolescents, sleep problems again become more common. As parental control wanes and academic and social demands increase, sleep may become more and more erratic. There is sometimes a delay in sleep onset, a reduction in sleep hours and excessive daytime sleepiness.
In excessive cases, these children may develop delayed sleep phase syndrome. This means they are unable to sleep at night or to stay awake during the day. This condition may represent a form of school avoidance. Treatment involves holding the child to a firm bedtime, which is gradually moved back in the evening.
A summary of sleep problems and suggested interventions is presented in Table 2.
|0 to 4 months

|Setting firm limits, gradual movement of bedtime forward
|Referral for possible T & A
Co-sleeping is the term given to parents and children sharing the same bed. Many experts have frowned on this practice because of concerns about possible sexual abuse or interference with developing normal independence. No studies have supported these concerns.
No matter how one views this issue, co-sleeping is most likely under-reported by parents, perhaps out of concern that physicians will disapprove of the practice.
Studies have shown that co-sleeping is common. From 35 to 55 percent of preschoolers and 10 to 23 percent of school-aged children sleep with their parents.19 It is a common practice among many ethnic groups; 90 percent of Hispanic homes and 70 percent of African-American homes report co-sleeping. It is an accepted practice among Pacific and Asian cultures as well.20
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recently published the results of a review of hazards associated with children placed in adult beds. The eight-year survey period contained 515 deaths in children younger than two years. Approximately one fourth of the deaths were due to overlying of the child by someone else sleeping in the bed. Three fourths of the deaths were caused by entrapment in the bed structure leading to suffocation or strangulation.21
Anticipatory Guidance to Facilitate Normal Sleep Patterns
Because of the prevalence of disordered sleep behavior among families with young children, questions about sleep should be incorporated into every well-child visit (Table 3). Physicians should use these moments as a time to let parents know that the development of healthy sleep patterns is as important as good nutritional and dental habits.
|To bring up the topic as part of a well-child visit:
|How has your child been sleeping recently?
|If the parent indicates a problem, with reluctance to go to bed, frequent wakings, early arisings, etc.:
|What time do you put your child to bed?
|What is the usual routine in your household between dinner and bedtime?
|What is your routine in the 30 to 60 minutes before bedtime?
|What happens when the lights are turned off?
|When your child cries, how do you respond? How quickly?
|Does your child get a bottle or get nursed at bedtime?
|Does your child get a bottle or get nursed in the middle of the night?
|How many times a night does your child awaken?
|How do you or your partner respond?
|How long does it take your child to go back to sleep?
|What time does your child get out of bed to start the day?
|Will your child play quietly in bed if he or she is awake before others come to get him or her?
|Does your child sleep in a crib or a bed?
|Is the environment in your child's room conducive to sleep (e.g., dark, quiet)?
|Does your child ever sleep in your bed with you?
|Does your child sleep with a toy, stuffed animal or favorite blanket?
|Does your child nap during the day? How often? How long?
When parents acknowledge a problem, physicians should take a thorough history and determine which strategies the parents have adopted to deal with the problem. Medical causes such as chronic illness, respiratory problems, seizures, recurrent ear infections and the role of medications should be explored. Asking the parents to keep a sleep diary for a week can be helpful.
Parents should be guided to develop clear goals for creating consistent bedtime rituals and patterns of nighttime intervention. They must be given the opportunity to express their misgivings so that they are not sent out with a treatment plan they are unwilling to follow. The physician should offer his or her support or that of the office staff by telephone or through subsequent follow-up office visits.

The breakaway Italian Rugby League has arrived in Africa to kick-start the Kenya Charity Camp FIRFL Project! The FIRFL wants to expand its borders through an important initiative to assist Kenyan kids.
The new initiative was launched in an experimental in November and will run for six months.
There is the intention to continue to provide support for the next three years. In essence the Federazione Italia Rugby Football League will send federal coaches to the Watamu and Malindi orphanages, namely two of the most important cities of the Kenyan nation.
The purpose of the FIRFL is not simply to teach and instil the values of rugby league to the unfortunate African children, but the main intent of the FIRFL is to help a country in light of recent tragic events.
The FIRFL project was immediately welcomed with enthusiasm by the local rugby league federation who have supported and have endeavoured to ensure that this idea was turned into a reality.
The FIRFL, finally, does not hide the hope of being able to obtain funds, in future, from partners attentive to ethical investment in order to create scholarships for Kenyan children who live in a harsh reality every day.

All of us who love the Chesapeake Bay breathed a sigh of relief when Rep. Scott Taylor recently went to bat for the bay in Congress.
The president's budget has proposed eliminating funding for the EPA's Chesapeake Bay Program, threatening to reverse all the progress made in restoring our waters. Fortunately, the House Appropriations Committee recently supported restoring $60 million to the Bay Program, still shy of the current level of $73 million ("House committee votes to slash Chesapeake Bay cleanup by $13 million," July 19).
However, this is a promising first sign from Congress. Rep. Taylor championed the Bay Program to the committee, rightly calling the Chesapeake a "national treasure," and vowed to continue to push for full funding as Congress finalizes the budget. The result? Committee leadership committed to work with him as the process goes forward.
It is heartening to see this region's strong bipartisan push for the bay. Recently, Congressman Bobby Scott planted oysters on the Lafayette River, while Congressman Rob Wittman joined constituents on Clean the Bay Day. Rep. Don McEachin has urged support for bay restoration. Senators Mark Warner and Tim Kaine are defending the bay Program on the other side of Capitol Hill.
The future of the Bay Program is critical to our future here in Hampton Roads. All of us who enjoy local seafood, fishing, boating and swimming should applaud members of Congress fighting to keep bay restoration alive. They are making a strong showing, and the bases are loaded.
Let's cheer them on so they can bring it home.

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God… Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes… shall see the Son of Man coming in the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.
I wrote my first sermon, totally unsolicited, when I was about nine or ten years old. By that time I must have heard twenty or thirty discourses on the Second Coming of Christ because, in the church of my youth, the Second Coming of Christ was pretty much all they preached on — they thought, rightly, that it was immanent, constitutive of the Christian faith as well as immediate. So, my first sermon was about the Second Coming as well. The problem with it, as I look back, was that I was carried way by my imagination. About a year or so earlier I had seen the first movie version of War of the Worlds at the local Paramount Theater — the first one, the one that starred Gene Barry. It won the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. When I wrote my sermon on the Second Coming, I managed to mix it up with War of the Worlds. I had decided that New York City would be our Lord’s target for his return, and I visualized Him with death-rays shooting from his eyes, wiping out our enemies, much like the Martians in the movie effortlessly dispatched their enemies. Cars were flying through the air. People were fleeing in mass. When I preached the sermon to my mother and father in our living room, they did not say much of anything. I think Mother was seriously worried about me or a while and maybe up until she died a few year back. I vaguely recall a short and uncomfortable meeting with our preacher.
I still believe in the Second Coming of Christ and we all boldly proclaimed it as a dogma of the faith of the Church this morning when we announced that we believe in Jesus Christ and that, “He shall come again, with glory, to judge both the quick and the dead.” St. John and all the other Apostles and the whole Church, ancient and modern, agree that God has committed himself to materiality and in particular he has committed himself to the material substance of the human body. And one of the major proofs of that reality is that the Son of God himself is committed to His own Human Flesh to be coeternal with his Divinity. The Second Person of the Holy Trinity, God the Son, will never cease to be a human being and our texts for today place before us his Second Coming as more proof of love and solidarity with humanity. But in addition to that proof, we also have a promise.
First of all to the proof of his solidarity with us: The same Jesus who was conceived in Mary’s womb, whose human flesh is the flesh, the humanity of the Second Person of the Trinity, the Eternal Word of the Father — the same Jesus who died, who rose from the Dead, the same Jesus who ascended to His Father – that same Jesus will return and that event will bring an end to this space-time continuum as we know it:
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
We do a fine job in the Church of proclaiming the great Feasts of our Lord: The Annunciation, The Visitation, Christmas, Epiphany, The Circumcision, Transfiguration, Easter, The Ascension and of course the great day of Abstinence and Fasting – Good Friday. All these holy days ring loudly the clear proclamation that God has anchored His unbounded and uncreated life in human flesh.
We have proclaimed from All Saints’ pulpit repeatedly, our Lord did not merely use human flesh as a means to an end. Jesus did not dispose of His flesh once His earthly work was complete. When He ascended to the Father, fifty day after His resurrection, He ascended body and all. Body and all — because human beings are being of spirit, intelligence, and flesh. Jesus would not be perfectly human, truly human, without His body of flesh. And neither would we be fully human, fully ourselves, if our hope was only in something like a nebulous survival of the so-called immortal soul. Our blessed hope is not a disembodied state of being, but rather we look to the resurrection of our bodies.
And this is where the promise comes in; but to get there we have to ask why did God become Man, why did the Word become flesh? Was the Incarnation simply a method to provide a Body to be a sacrificed? That is exactly what I was taught back in the church of my youth. But that is not true. The Incarnation was not only to provide a body of sinless flesh to be sacrificed for sin. There’s more, much more to this story. Why did the Son of God become the Son of Man? I’ll tell you why: The Son of God became the Son of Man so that the Sons, the Children of Man (that’s all of humanity) might become the Sons, Children of God. That is ontological, a state of being. We have a future that we are growing into as we mature as God’s Offspring.
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
You have been born again through holy baptism and grafted into Jesus Christ. You are Christians, the children of God, and you have a destiny that includes our whole selves, material bodies and all, that will know it perfect finality in the beatific vision — you have been created and then re-created by baptism so that you may behold God in his splendid, unchanging beauty, face-to-face — ourselves transformed into creatures of beauty, agility and unimagined powers, and yet recognized by one another for who we have been as well as who we are becoming in a state of grace. That state of being is one to which the Church Fathers consistently gave the name “deification.” That is both a process and a state of being that already exist and in fact the Collect for this 25th Sunday in Trinity proclaims the same mystery:
O God, whose blessed Son was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil, and make us the sons of God, and heirs of eternal life; Grant us, we beseech thee, that having this hope, we may purify ourselves, even as he is pure; that, when he shall appear again with power and great glory, we may be made like unto him in his eternal and glorious Kingdom…
Our connection to the Son is precious and intimate because he has, in loving solidarity with us, become a partaker of our flesh and blood. And that very thing was accomplished in the Incarnation through the flesh of his Mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary. God has become flesh of our flesh and thus we have a true connection, a material connection, an intimate connection in our mutual flesh. And realize this most profound truth: God’s very human nature, our very human nature, body and all that once hung upon the Cross, this day participates in the interior life of God the blessed Trinity. Human nature, body and all, has been taken up into the life of the God who is God, without annihilating human nature. It is because human nature, body and all, has been assumed into the life of God without destroying human nature, that we human beings now participate in the life of God. Salvation in the most complete sense means to be made whole, to grow into our full potential as human beings, to realize our destiny as deified creatures destined for the beatific vision, meant to behold God face-to-face. That is our true beatitude, our true happiness, our portion as human beings, our salvation, the perfection of our nature by supernatural grace.
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God…
