'We can stay up', says goalscoring Stags debutant
CHAD.CO.UK, BY Tim Morriss
NEW signing Jefferson Louis has all the potential to be a cult hero at Field Mill after making an instant impact in the disappointing 3-2 home defeat with Brentford.
And the 6ft 2ins striker, who socred within seven minutes of making his debut as a second half substitute, says the Stags can climb out of the relegation zone.
The bubbly Louis, signed on a three-month contract in midweek, gave struggling Mansfield a different attacking dimension with his pace, power and height.
He almost followed up his first equaliser with another late on, moments after Brentford grabbed a controversial 85th minute winner to send the Stags to the foot of the Football League, but this time his shot was deflected wide.
After the final whistle on Saturday he told Chad: "Of course we can move up the table. We have just got to go for it and be really positive
"We have games in hand and we have got to go out and win them.
"If we perform like we did for the first 10 minutes or so when I came on today, then we can do it.
"To go down without a fight would be the coward's way."
Louis says that he has not set any goalscoring targets, and just aims 'to do as well as I can in every game'.
Of his 63rd minute goal, created by the persistance of Micky Boulding and which hauled the Stags level at 2-2 for a while, he added: "I was really pleased. I was confident I would score today.
"It was all about anticipation. The ball was bouncing around and then I went through and tucked it away."
Louis' appearance clearly lifted the Stags' faithful, who quickly warmed to his whole-hearted efforts.
The striker, who has League experience with Oxford and Bristol Rovers but had been playing non-league at Weymouth earlier this season, added: "It makes me feel good to hear the fans cheering me. They were great.
"This is a chance of a lifetime for me to get back into the Football League. I want it!
"I was disappointed not to start today, but I understand the manager's reasons and his decision. I respect that. It is up to me to take my chance when I get it."
Experienced keeper Carl Muggleton, whose heroics get the Stags in the game at times, told Chad: "Jefferson really is a breath of fresh air around the club and the dressing room.
"New faces help to lift a team and he is a real character. New players put pressure on those already at the club and can be a kick up the backside to one or two."
Stags boss Billy Dearden said that he had not selected Louis for his full debut because of the striker's lack of recent match practice.
He told Chad: "He gives us a different dimension, put himself about and got a goal. It was a good start."
Dearden slams defending after Stags' fifth successive Mill defeat
STAGS boss Billy Dearden slammed his side's defending once again as they conceded three times in a fifth successive home defeat, losing 3-2 against Brentford today.
Mansfield have let in 12 goals in those five home losses and Dearden said: "I felt we deserved something from the game.
"If you score two goals it should be enough to win a football match if you defend right and are professional about it. But some of our defending today was poor.
Their third goal was offside. It was sloppy from us but the referee says it hit our man and he was played on. Surely he is active then? Someone will have to explain the rules to me. As far as I am concerned he was off.
"We have shot ourselves in the foot again and it is hard to take when you have put so much in. We have got to stop the rot somewhere along the line.
"The new lads did okay when they came on. Some people will ask why I didn't start with them but they have not played any football recently and will get a good week's training in this week to get them ready for next weekend.
"Jefferson stuck his goal away - that's what he is there for. You could see he wasn't fit but he will give us a different dimension. He came on and gave them problems.
"Brentford have done very well and were magnificent today. Their away record is second to none. But they know they have been in a game today.
"All in all we didn't deserve to lose a decent game of football."
Bees boss Andy Scott said: "I think Mansfield are one of the better sides down there.
"They are capable of scoring goals, pass the ball well and are very organised.
"I think Billy will be disappointed not to get anything after that first half but I think they can get out of trouble without a shadow of a doubt."
Injured defender Martin McIntosh has been allowed to go home following the death of his brother-in-law last night and will keep in touch with Dearden about his return.
Fellow injury victim Alex John-Baptiste will have his back problem examined by another surgeon this week.
Mansfield Town (A): Press Conference Notes
Andy Scott Quotes:
"I was very disappointed with the first half performance to be honest. It was a good bit of quality from Kevin for the first goal that kept us in it to be honest.
But we came out for the second half and we started on the front foot a bit and you could sense a bit more urgency from us and a bit more energy. That was good because that's what we're about.
Certainly in the first half I felt we didn't have the energy about us that we have done in recent games. I reminded them of what we wanted and in the second half we imposed ourselves on them more. It was disappointing to concede the second goal but we kept going and it was a great goal from Nathan to give us the win.
He scores goals. He scores all sorts of goals. He can get the deflections in the box, the headers and the ones where he's got a bit of time on his hands as well. So obviously it's a great debut for him and we're delighted for him.
He's not the finished article by a long stretch. He's only been a pro for a year. So we're not going to make him out to be something he's not. But he's certainly a player that can be whatever he wants to be. He's got all the attributes. He's big and strong and quick and is good in the air. And he can score goals. So that's quite a lot to have in your favour. Yes I've got to work with him. There are certain things I saw today that I can work on with him. If he gets them into his game he's going to be even more of a presence for us.
I felt that we could probably have killed the game off a little bit more. We had some chances at 3-2 and if one of them had gone in it would have made things a little easier.
I thought Alan Connell put himself about really well. He didn't really get the rub of the green but that's what I'm looking for. He can score goals but he's also adding a physical side to his game that we haven't seen for a while. He was a real handful for those two at the back.
That's the sort of play we were working on when we went away [for the second goal]. We tried to take it into Tuesday and it nearly worked. I never tell them to stop trying these things. If you try and put the shackles on them you're not going to get the best out of them.
Gary Smith made a great little run and Alan Connell made a good run and a good finish. They do that every day in training. They enjoy it and have a good understanding. It's nice to watch. I'd rather win 3-2 than a scrappy 1-0.
They're probably one of the better sides down there. They're capable of scoring goals, pass it well and are very organised. I think they'll get out of it without a shadow of a doubt.
Kevin O'Connor has done his hamstring today which is a big blow because he has been outstanding all season, not just since I took over. Kevin couldn't walk properly so it doesn't look good. But we'll let it settle down and give him a scan on Monday. It'll be a big blow for us but it gives somebody else the chance to come in and grab their opportunity.
We've not exactly set ourselves a target as a group, but we know if we play with the tempo and desire and attitude that we have been doing in the last 9 games we can improve in the table. It's up to us where we get to and see where that is at the end of the season.
Nathan's a really nice kid. Very level headed. He wants to play football, is desperate to play and was chomping at the bit. He got a bit of a knock in training yesterday on his knee but he said 'just play me. Do what you can. I'm desperate to play'. And that is what I was looking for.
That's the sort of things I found out when I researched him. To see that character when he came to me on Friday, that he was sore but let's get on with it. In League Two you're going to take a lot of knocks and you've got to get on with it.
He loves scoring goals. He said 'that's what I'm here for'. He expects to score goals, he expects to be in the side and to score goals. If he doesn't he's going to be disappointed. That's what natural goal scorers are like.
It was a difficult chance for him because he had plenty of time to think about it but he slotted it home well.
Monty was disappointed to be left out. But what you can see is we're forming a squad for all over the pitch. We've got a very strong bench. Pooley was very disappointed when he came off but I said to him sometimes it just doesn't work. I said to him as a young player you've got to experience the lows as well as the highs. And it's about how you come back.
Jordan Parkes came on and did a good job down the left. Craig Stone did an excellent job covering Kevin. It's not a surprise to me because I know what they're like and that's why I brought them to the club."

Juice, drugs, and baseball
On March 30, Major League Baseball (MLB) launched its probe into steroid use in baseball over the past 10 to 15 years. MLB commissioner Bud Selig appointed former U.S. Senator George Mitchell to head up the investigation, whose mission is to uncover who used what and where and when they used it. This comes in the wake of the publishing of Game of Shadows by Mark Fainaru-Wada and Lance Williams, a book that details Barry Bonds' alleged steroid use.
Unfortunately for everyone involved, this probe will cause more problems than it will solve. Why was this investigation not started 10 or 15 years ago? This steroid problem began in the early 1990s, yet its scope is not known even up through the present. Mark McGwire (co-star of the historic 1998 home run race) took androstenedione, an unregulated food additive that is banned in the Olympics, the NCAA, and the NFL, but not in MLB.
Only now are we trying to uncover the truth of the past, and what about possible future problems, such as use of human growth hormone or blood doping? A present and future approach, rather than an investigation into the past, is what is needed.
What are the real motives behind this investigation? Selig denied that the reason for this probe is that Bonds is closing in on the major-league home run record of 755 held by Hank Aaron, but it is not hard to read between the lines. If Bonds passes Aaron amidst all the controversy and accusations, Selig will
be put in a tough position on whether to honor Bonds' achievements.
Another question lies in what exactly Selig hopes to accomplish. He recently said, "The goal here is to determine facts, not engage in supposition, speculation, rumor, or innuendo." Once the facts are found, even if players used steroids, it will be hard to penalize them for their actions occurring before the steroids ban.
In addition, players were not given formal drug tests until 2003, and no penalties were enacted until the following year. The current policy is a 50-game suspension for the first positive test, a 100-game suspension for the next, and a lifetime ban for the third. This policy seems to solve potential future problems of steroid use, but it has no provision for actions to take when players are charged with using steroids in books, when people testify that the players used them, or when after-the-fact evidence is uncovered.
If, and when, this investigation finds dirt on players, it will tarnish the athletes' reputations and the game of baseball as a whole. This is all because these players were doing something that officially was not breaking any rules and that they felt they had to do to compete.
I am not condoning steroid use here, but in sports, when athletes are looking for every edge they can get and there is pressure coming from every direction for them to excel at the highest level possible — and there is no suspension policy in place — you begin to see how they could end up making the wrong decision.
Also, how do you deal with statistics from the past decade? You cannot just isolate and remove the cheaters from the rest, seeing as all statistics are interconnected. You would basically just need to throw out all the statistics from the past decade to solve that, but then what about the period in which spitballs were not banned from being thrown by pitchers? I guess you would need to throw out these stats, too, since pitchers were cheating then. There is also the "dead ball era" (1900–1919) when baseballs were not wound as tight as they are now, so the ball was not as "juiced" as it is in today's game.
Commissioner Selig's intentions are good, but the results, unfortunately, will not be. More harm than good will come out of this investigation, as it will create more problems than it will solve. Selig's goal here is to determine the facts about steroids in baseball, but what happens when he gets these facts? Selig's best option would be to focus on the future and to stop any further performance-enhancing drug use. He will not be able to change the past, so he might as well just leave it alone.

January 19, 2013, Everett, WA (ISN) – Kohl Bauml and Ryan Harrison combined for 6 points and Austin Lotz made 44 saves as the Everett Silvertips topped the Seattle Thunderbirds 5-1 Friday night in front of 7,326 fans at Comcast Arena.
Following their third straight win over Seattle, the 'Tips now lead the T-Birds by three points for fourth place in the U.S. Division and seventh in the Western Conference. Everett will complete a five-game homestand Saturday against the Lethbridge Hurricanes.
Bauml and Harrison had primary assists on each other's goals to help the Silvertips build a big lead, with Bauml netting two scores and Harrison burying one. Josh Winquist and Manraj Hayer each finished with a goal and an assist and Landon Oslanski each chipped in two helpers as Everett scored the game's last four goals. Austin Lotz (10-14-0-1) allowed only a single Seattle goal despite facing 45 shots as the Thunderbirds finished with a 45-23 shot advantage.
After a strong start, Everett opened the scoring early on with a powerplay goal as Ryan Harrison's shot banked off the back boards and out front to Kohl Bauml, who banged it in at 2:20. Seattle tied the game midway through the period when Jarret Smith's shot from the blue line made its way through traffic and beat Lotz inside the far post. Shots were 13-8 in favor of Seattle after 20 minutes.
The 'Tips scored three times in the second period to take control heading into the last 20 minutes. Everett's second goal came five minutes in when crisp passing by Ty Mappin and Kohl Bauml led to Ryan Harrison's pretty tap-in goal on the doorstep. Bauml picked up his second powerplay goal of the night at 10:06, firing a shot off the arm of Seattle goalie Danny Mumaugh and in to make it 3-1. Josh Winquist tacked on another goal five minutes later, grabbing another rebound off the end boards and roofing it upstairs on Mumaugh to give the Silvertips a 4-1 lead.
Everett increased the lead early in the third when Carson Stadnyk created a turnover in the Seattle zone, allowing Winquist to find Hayer open in front for his ninth goal of the season. Seattle put 16 shots on net in the third, but Lotz stopped each one to preserve the 5-1 advantage. The late stages of the period turned into a race to the penalty box with three more fights and 62 penalty minutes given out between the two teams. The Thunderbirds finished with 73 minutes in penalties as the teams combined for a game total of 114.
The 'Tips owned the special teams with two powerplay goals on five opportunities and a perfect 4-for-4 effort on the penalty kill. Danny Mumaugh (0-4-0-0) stopped 18 of 23 shots in net for the Thunderbirds.
The Silvertips will now conclude their five-game homestand Saturday night with a rare visit from the Lethbridge Hurricanes at Comcast Arena. Opening faceoff is set for 7:05 pm as the 'Tips and 'Canes faceoff for the only time this season before Everett heads to Vancouver to finish a three-game weekend against the Giants on Sunday afternoon.
Season tickets, mini-game packages and single-game tickets for the Silvertips' 10th Anniversary season at Comcast Arena are on sale now.

Happy Monday! Let me start by saying that this post has taken me FOREVER to write. Mostly because I've been struggling with my camera to get just the right images for my posts. My latest goal for the blog is to take 100% of the photos myself using a DSLR camera instead of using my iPhone photos, stock photos, or images that I've purchased. For the past few months I've been learning how to take good photos, set up lighting, use the manual mode on my DSLR, composing a picture, getting the perfect shot, and editing. Phew, it's a lot! I'm really excited that this is the first post that consists of 100% of my own photography! I still have a lot to learn but I'll write about it in another post to come soon!
Hosting Friendsgiving this past week really got me me in the cooking mood. I don't know about you, but I love experimenting when I cook! It' allows me to get creative, make a mess, and whip up something new and delicious. While experimenting is fun, from time to time I can get cook's block (is that a real phrase?)! During these times, I like to consult my handy dandy cookbooks. Cookbooks (and cooking blogs, I can't leave those gems out!) help me expand my palate, try new and bold flavors, and come up with sneaky ways to get Nick to eat his vegetables (insert evil laugh here)…. Below are my favorite cookbooks and food blogs – give them a try!

Axine Water Technologies
Axine recognized as one of the three top innovators in Canadian water excellence by leading Canadian water publication
Axine's journey began when Colleen Legzdins, a materials engineer working on fuel cell technology at Ballard Power Systems, decided to apply her knowledge of electrochemistry to environmental challenges. She soon settled on wastewater treatment, and focused specifically on the problem of recalcitrant organics.
In industrial applications, these compounds can be resistant to conventional processes. They create operational bottlenecks, prevent water reuse, and are increasingly subject to tougher discharge regulations. These difficulties can have a significant effect on production, from equipment downtime to higher costs and fees.
Recognizing the opportunity, Legzdins developed a one-step proprietary electrolytic oxidation process designed to treat high concentrations of toxic and biodegradable organics, as well as ammonia and pathogens, without chemicals and without producing sludge.
"Colleen built a few prototypes and tested them for a couple of years on her own in her garage and a rented lab. It's a true start-up story," says Jonathan Rhone. Rhone is the president and CEO of the company that has resulted: Axine Water Technologies.
Although this type of technology is not exactly new, the approach is disruptive. The concept of a modular, small footprint system that can be retrofitted to existing wastewater treatment plants has significant market potential. "It's about performance and cost, not incremental improvements," says Rhone.
He claims that, when comparing the technology to incumbent solutions, the cost is between three and ten times lower than existing solutions. With savings on energy, maintenance, chemicals, and the costs of handling sludge, the return on investment would seem to be tremendous.
"We've got a very strong value proposition for early adopters," says Rhone.
Even though the technology applies to a number of sectors, Axine started with the oil and gas industry. "Pain, money, and motivation—those are our criteria for picking our markets. Our focus is to solve a commercial issue and become the new standard for treating dissolved organics in industrial wastewater," says Rhone.
The company's long-term vision is to incorporate the technology into the design of new wastewater plants to displace conventional biological and chemical oxidation, and other traditional wastewater equipment. Axine expects to be in the field with pilot plants by end of 2013 and have early commercial plants by end of 2014.
Our panel said: "This innovation is worthy of attention because it's a private sector innovation that is tailored for use in a variety of applications at the single-effluent industrial level, as well as an add-on to municipal treatment facilities."

The Association Between Alzheimer's Disease and Cancer
Several studies have reported an inverse association between cancer and Alzheimer's disease, such that cancer survivors had a decreased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and people with Alzheimer's disease were at lower risk of developing cancer.
Previous studies for establishing relationship between neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease and cancer suggested the existence of an inverse association between the diseases. This makes it more important to establish the association between cancer and Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that causes problems with memory and thinking. It is most common cause of dementia (memory loss) in older people. Cancer is a group of diseases with uncontrolled division of abnormal cells which may invade to other organs in the body. Both the diseases are life threatening.
Various biologic mechanisms have been hypothesised to underlie the inverse association between the two diseases.
Inefficient cell division in neurons of people with AD leads to efficient cell death due to cellular cellular aging subjected to apoptosis (programmed cell death that occurs when the normal cell is damaged and it needs to be removed) (Vincent I et al., 1996). This process in dementia of AD is complementary to cancer and may provide biological explanation for the inverse relationship in the incidence of cancer and AD (Copani A et al., 2007).
Studies Supporting the Concept of Inverse Association
- A research carried out in a cancer population since its entry into Framingham Heart Study, related cancer with risk of incident AD and estimated the risk of incident cancer among participants with or without AD. The study evaluated 1,278 patients with or without history of cancer aged 65 or more and free of dementia at base-line (1986-90). Over a mean follow-up of 10 years the study concluded that, cancer survivors had a lower risk of AD than those without cancer and patients with AD had a lower risk of incident cancer.
- Another population-based incident study reported that risk of cancer in patients with AD dementia was halved, and the risk of AD dementia in patients with cancer was 35% reduced.
Factors Contributing to the Inverse Relation of AD and Cancer
According to a systemic review by S. Ovais, several factors that are known to be upregulated in any type of cancer to sustain growth and survival of cells, are down regulated in AD leading to neuronal degeneration.
Some of these factors include
1. p53: p53 is responsible to start apoptosis if DNA damage is found to be irreparable. Activation of p53 leads to cell cycle arrest followed by induced apoptosis of the damaged cell. Upregulation of p53 leads to increased risk of Alzheimer's due to massive neuronal death which represents an important pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's. Whereas down regulation or deletion of p53 leads to cancer.
2. Estrogen: Estrogen is neuroprotective hormone. It even protects neurons from hypoglycaemic, ischemic injuries and oxidative stress.
In AD an imbalance occurs between neuronal injury and repair. Role of estrogen in reducing the risk of AD is established. And role of estrogen in increased risk of ovarian, endometrial and breast cancer is also well-known.
3. Similar to estrogen, Neurotrophins and growth factors (NGF) are neuroprotective and involved in regulation of tumor growth and cancer progression. Additionally, interactions of neurotrophic factors and glutamate are involved in regulating developmental and adult neuroplasticity lowering the risk of development of AD.
4. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is involved in growth, proliferation and survival of cells. Deficiency of EGFR is seen in AD and it's overexpression is involved in Cancer.
5. cAMP: cAMP provides survival signals for the neurons reducing the risk of AD. Whereas it contributes to tumor progression.
6. Bcl-2 and other oncogenes contributed to cancer cell survival, there overexpression provides protection against cell death induced by β amyloid. These oncogenes are down-regulated in AD and over expressed in cancer.
7. PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway reduce apoptosis and promotes proliferation. There is over activation of this pathway in cancer. It is neuroprotective pathway.
TGF-β, TNF-α, IGF-1, Telomerase, ROS and many other factors point towards the inverse association of the two life-threatening diseases.
Interestingly, all those factors that contribute to cell growth and proliferation are increased in cancer and decreased in AD. However, there are many pathways that are common in both diseases that operate similarly and are not altered by disease process.
Does this conclude that the inverse association is actually present?
Establishing the link between age related diseases is complex and several issues must be dealt with before concluding that this association is true.
Another research conducted in more than 0.7 million cancer cases of Medicare patients residing within the population based Surveillance, epidemiology and end-results (SEER) program, examined risk of incident cancer after AD diagnosis, as well as risk of first AD diagnosis in cancer survivors. The study did not support the association of these diseases.
The confounding issues with the previous studies
• It could be that, Cancer survivors might have reduced risk of developing Alzheimer's, simply because they are more likely to die even before they can develop it.
• Severe cognitive impairment might lead to reduced screening and diagnosis of cancer due to less reporting.
• Existence of one disease might hide the diagnosis of other, because any new finding in patients with AD or cancer would be misinterpreted as a cause of primary disease which was first diagnosed.
• Cognitive decline due to neurodegeneration as in AD may be wrongly interpreted as an adverse effect of chemotherapy in cancer patients. (Hutchinson AD et al., 2012)
Further work is needed to prove the link between the two diseases which might be helpful in understanding the potential impact of cancer treatment on risk of Alzheimer's disease.
Currently there is no drug established to treat AD. However, cholinesterase inhibitors and memantine are approved by FDA for treating cognitive symptoms. Study of regulatory factors and their relation in both groups of diseases might help in developing new effective drugs for AD.
Are you familiar with an Alzheimer's patient who is a cancer survivor?

This consideration of these two diseases is filled with food for thought. I enjoy posts like this because I like both the mental exercise it takes to look at issues from as many angles as possible and because important connections can be made between health issues that sometimes only family members can make. Thanks for putting this together.

The mind a maze, a labyrinth of choices and bullies and judgement. What is freedom, do we even remember? To sit on a bench downtown, I am free, yes. There are no hunters, no agents, no apparent bad guys. But fear is vivid. As though I know some secret or truth about the inherent danger of being alive, as though this knowledge was given to me and it consumed me to a point that everything I was ceased to exist. I had to regenerate, and in regenerating I forgot this truth, the very thing that ate me alive. This truth is still true, but whatever it is, I do not remember. The memory of being eaten alive by this persists, and though invisible, follows me wherever I go.
That's right, it's not fear that follows me, it's memory. Is the power of memory greater than fear? Or are they the same? And is it necessary to identify what haunts you in order to exorcise it? Maybe it is enough to know it is there, and move around. Do not focus on the obstacle, focus on where you want to go. Freedom is what you do, the shackles are whatever you give power to.

For today's blog I want to highlight three studies. The first is about motives to enter the Dental profession; the second about the reasons why Dentists leave the public sector; and the third about what practice setting creates the most job satisfaction for Dentists. All three have, basically, the same conclusion – autonomy!
*source= http://www.mydentalhub.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Dr-Ted-Pinney-dental-specialty.jpg
College students who want autonomy choose Dentistry as a career – they want to make their own decisions. Public Health Dentists quit because of a lack of autonomy. The practice setting that is most satisfying to Dentists is the one that affords the most autonomy – Solo Practice. But consider this question – is autonomy in conflict with standardization?
In the United States, 58% of Dentists are in Solo private practice – an environment where the Dentist can enjoy autonomy in decision making. I can speak about my own small practice experiences – I worked in a 4 Dentist practice and taught at the University 1 afternoon per week before I decided to reverse that commitment in 2008. As a small private practice owner I did little to pursue best practices or evidence based dentistry – I was only interested in what works in my hands.
Monthly, I would read only the coverstory of the Journal of the American Dental Association and I received most of my continuing education from dental supply companies. If my co-workers saw one of my patients and disagreed with something I did – they would keep it to themselves because they would rather keep the peace than confront me. Additionally, I would afford them the same kindness. The result of this is that no one ever gave me feedback to improve.
It can be taken for granted, then, that one Dental Practice may have enormous variability in processes, materials and methods compared to another. Yet, we cannot argue that one is, necessarily, superior to the other because evidence about best practices is exceedingly limited in dental medicine. This is both the strength and risk of the Dental Profession – the variety means every patient can find a practice environment and provider operating style that suites them, however, standardization and true quality gains are near impossible.
*Source= http://www.learningmarket.org/page.cfm/link=189
Thus, we confront a fundamental issue in our profession – that we value autonomy and seek uniqueness rather than valuing standardization and seeking best practices. This is a culture that may be in conflict with what is best for our patients. Our colleagues in Medicine have a very different perspective. Extensive research in Medicine demonstrates that standardization leads to reduced mortality, better quality and fewer complications. Moreover, checklists have never been broadly implemented in Dentistry even though we know checklists reduce medical error and improve outcomes. Dentistry needs a paradigm shift – rather than doing what works best in our hands we need a culture that pursues best practices and standards of care.

Kassymbek stressed the removal of hurdles to expansion of ties between Iran and Kazakhstan, especially in the economic, banking and trade sectors, reports Banker.ir. Kamyab emphasized the creation of a mechanism to expand trade ties and foreign exchange transactions between the two countries, underlining the importance of creating an account in local currencies for the purpose. The two sides agreed to form a task group consisting of experts and officials of both nations.

Insurers facing stormy weather
At the recent Norton Rose Fulbright Insurance Conference, the firm's London-based insurance law consultant, Tim Ingham, looked at the concerns, but also opportunities, for insurers in the face of climate change.
No presentation on extreme weather events around the world can be completely up to date because of the frequency with which they are now occurring. In the couple of weeks since Ingham's presentation, there has been the widespread devastation in Florida wreaked by Hurricane Michael, which generated winds of 250km/* and which entered the record books as the third worst hurricane ever to make landfall in the US.
Ingham did, however, catalogue a string of events, including the recent severe wildfires in California, fuelled by strong winds, drought and high temperatures; drought and wildfires in Australia; weather of both extremes (cold and hot) in the UK and Europe; and, closer to home, the recent drought in the Western Cape.
And it's likely to get a lot worse, according to scientists' predictions, Ingham says.
Increases in global surface temperatures mean that more water vapour is held in the air. The increase is exponential. Increases in water vapour, will fuel more storms. For example, if global temperatures were to rise by as much as four degrees (twice the two-degree cap aimed at in the Paris Agreement of 2015), this will result in a 50% increase in the amount of water vapour in the air.
"Dry places are expected to get drier and wet places wetter," he says, "sea levels will rise, and there'll be more flooding from storm surges."
Already, oceans are 20cm higher than they were in 1950, and there has been a fourfold increase in flooding claims at Lloyd's in 30 years.
It remains to be seen whether insurance models, which work out the probabilities of weather-related losses occurring, will be able to keep up, Ingham says. "The industry has been pretty good in the past with modelling, and models have had to be adaptable, but how reliable will future modelling be if the weather becomes increasingly unpredictable and volatile?"
There may also be problems for regulators in setting adequate capital requirements for insurers, Ingham says, and for re-insurers, to which individual insurance companies transfer their larger risks.
But apart from the burden of covering heavier physical losses, insurers must be mindful of the indirect consequences of climate change, which are less obvious but can result in major financial loss. There may even be opportunities to be had in designing products to cover some of these risks, he says.
One is business and supply-chain interruption: extreme events can put businesses such as factories out of action for long periods, resulting not only in a loss of income for the factory owners, but an interruption in the supply of goods to their buyers.
Each stage of the supply chain, which may stretch all around the world, would be adversely affected.
Another is professional liability. Professional consultants take out indemnity cover to protect themselves from costly lawsuits brought against them for negligence. Professionals involved in the design and construction of buildings and infrastructure, such as architects, town planners and civil engineers, may be particularly at risk if they fail to adapt to climate change or to extreme weather in the design and construction of buildings.
Ingham cited the Glasgow Science Museum, where the extreme temperatures of this past summer melted the bonding compound between its roof panels.
At a climate-change seminar hosted in August by Norton Rose Fulbright, one of its directors, Michael Chronis, pointed out that engineers may have to look at how they design roads and other infrastructure in light of extreme weather event statistics. And Simon Robinson, head of specialist property at Bryte Insurance, said insurers may ask clients to retro-fit buildings to withstand more extreme storms or, in the case of forests, to ensure basic fire prevention systems are in place.
Then there are the companies that are contributing to climate change. Will legislation be introduced that makes it easier for third parties to claim compensation from them?
Ingham said one report he had read suggested that 80% of harmful emissions can be attributed to just 29 power companies around the world.
He said that many kinds of companies will face increasingly onerous obligations to report on risks relating to climate change. Also, where investors are sought, care will be needed concerning what information is provided relating to the risk that carbon dioxide emissions and climate change bring to that business or investment. Law suits could easily follow.

Gift: Knowledge – With the gift of knowledge, we understand the meaning of God's Revelation, especially as expressed in the life and words of Jesus Christ. A person with knowledge is always learning more about the scriptures and Tradition.
Reading: Brothers and sisters:
I know that good does not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh.
The willing is ready at hand, but doing the good is not.
For I do not do the good I want,
but I do the evil I do not want.
Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it,
but sin that dwells in me.
So, then, I discover the principle
that when I want to do right, evil is at hand.
For I take delight in the law of God, in my inner self,
but I see in my members another principle
at war with the law of my mind,
taking me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members.
Miserable one that I am!
Who will deliver me from this mortal body?
Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 7:18-25a)
Observation: So, as I read the first reading yesterday and today, I was left with a sincere impression that Saint Paul was excusing himself from judgment for any future sins. However, as I sat in Mass this morning, I realized that he was only explaining his past sinfulness, with a sincere hope that God through his Son, Jesus Christ, would save him from his sinful nature in the future.
Prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner. I ask this, as always, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit. Amen.

Cook Children's Health Care System is committed to improving the overall health of children. Their hospital in Forth Worth Texas has a long tradition of providing quality medical care, as evidenced by their state of the art campuses and highly trained staff.
But the fine folks at Cook Children's know that caring for the body alone isn't enough.That's why you'll find special spaces throughout their facilities that are dedicated to healing the soul. For example, right outside the windows of the NICU is an cheery arrangement of our some of our sculptures, place purely for the benefit and enjoyment of parents and staff. Cook also has some of our pieces in the outdoor prayer garden that serves as a green spot for patients and families to reflect, pray, and enjoy nature.
We had already been working on another Cook project (stay tuned!), when we received an invitation to craft three features for a new prayer garden that is close to the main hospital entrance. This garden is designed to be like a small park, with winding walks, shade, benches, and inviting seating. We provided a ten foot daylily, a buckeye butterfly with a three foot wingspan, and an eight foot tulip.
Our hope – and our prayer – that our artwork will serve as a catalyst to help healing of the body, soul, mind, and spirit.

The classic Iron Fist mask makes its first appearance as Danny Rand takes on his one-time friend turned rival Davos, aka Steel Serpent, in a new full-length trailer for Marvel's Iron Fist Season 2.
The trailer shows promise for an improved second season over what many agree was a disappointing season one. The new footage helps establish Iron Fist's new mission for the second season of the Netflix drama, with Danny attempting to "keep the peace" in New York City following the downfall of the Hand, and purported death of Daredevil, in The Defenders. But it also follows through with what was set up in the third act of Iron Fist Season 1, with Danny (Finn Jones) and his childhood friend Davos (Sacha Dhawan) finally in direct conflict with one another.
The new trailer also suggests that season 2 will be darker, edgier, and more martial arts oriented than the first with less of the first season's soap opera style drama. Let's hope so, I still hold out hope this series will eventually find its groove and be the great series it can be for us fans to enjoy, and this trailer seems to be a step in the right direction.
Arriving Sept. 7 on Netflix, Marvel's Iron Fist Season 2 stars Finn Jones as Danny Rand, Jessica Henwick as Colleen Wing, Sacha Dhawan as Davos, Tom Pelphrey as Ward Meachum, Jessica Stroup as Joy Meachum, Simone Missick Misty Knight and introduces Alice Eve as Mary Walker.

Swimming Pool Glossary: Halogens
Halogens contain chlorine, bromine, or iodine and belong to a class known as halide compounds. The only halogens used in pools and hot tubs are chlorine and bromine.
Chlorine is used to kill bacteria in pools. If you are using water in a fish tank or pond, the chlorine content must be removed, or it will kill the fish.
Bromine, though similar in content to chlorine, is becoming more and more popular. This is because bromine has a much softer scent than chlorine. Bromine is available in solid forms which can be dispensed through bromine feeders. Bromine should measure about 1 to 3 parts per million in your pool water.

okay, i was having trouble, and i thought it was my battery, but it looks like i was wrong. i noticed my headlight dimming more than usual when i stopped, and then she'd stall. no problems running. after some advice from fred, she was working fine, i had her idling on the stand. but riding today, she had the same problem, and i noticed that the headlight was flickering even as i was riding. it seemed to go in steps, bright, not so bright, dim, then bright again.
any ideas?

Daltons Organic Sheep Pellets
An organic fertiliser consisting of pelletised sheep manure and residual wool. Daltons Organic Sheep Pellets are made from pelletised sheep manure and wool waste. In addition to being a gentle source of nutrients, sheep pellets make an excellent soil conditioner, improve soil moisture retention and aeration. The nutrient release from Daltons Organic Sheep Pellets is prolonged as sustained microbial activity is required to break down the organic matter in the pellets. This slow release effect means there is little risk of the plants suffering from fertiliser burn.
Daltons Organic Sheep Pellets provide a balanced source of organic nutrients.
- 3% Nitrogen for better growth
- 1% Phosphorous for improved root development
- 3% Potassium for increased fruiting and flowering
- Daltons Organic Sheep Pellets 15kg
- Daltons Organic Sheep Pellets 8kg
For Garden Beds (Flowers and Vegetables)
Add 1kg per square metre and fork into soil to a depth of around 200mm.
For Planting (Roses and Ornamental Shrubs)
Add 1kg to each planting hole and mix thoroughly with soil.
Side Dressing or Mulch (Trees and Shrubs)
Apply liberally as mulch around existing plants to a depth of around 3cm and water thoroughly. Keep away from the base of the plants.
Daltons Organic Sheep Pellets can also be added to your compost heap to speed up the compost process by providing extra nitrogen (add 5kg per cubic metre). They can also be partially dissolved in water to make a liquid fertiliser. As Daltons Organic Sheep Pellets are safe to use in nearly every garden situation they are a friend of every gardener.

It's Alive...!
The iconic novel Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley was published exactly 200 years ago. The epic science-fiction horror story is more relevant today than ever. The story depicts Doctor Frankenstein who fails to act upon the destructive consequences of his own creature. The lack of empathy from his human companions unwillingly turns the creature into the monster others expect him to be. Frankenstein's monstrous creature manifests the dark and bright side of humanity.
The pursuit of knowledge and human ingenuity brought many possibilities, but it also comes with great responsibility. Looking at technological developments like artificial life, robotics and intelligent algorithms, we are on the verge of creating autonomous beings. As much as it creates excitement, the consequences are unknown to us. Will non-human agency outsmart humans in the future? And if so, what does this mean for society?
The Frankenstein symposium addresses the responsibility that comes with great scientific breakthroughs. As a modern-day Prometheus, the symposium challenges us to rethink the ethics of future emerging technology in today's society. How can the pursuit of scientific knowledge influence or even endanger humanity? To what extent do we own our creations? What can we learn from the non-human other? Should we give fire to the other, just like Prometheus did when he stole fire from the gods? Or Doctor Frankenstein, when he made a living creature, playing a godlike scientist? The Frankenstein Symposium explores our paradoxical relationship with science and the importance of the Humanities in this debate. With a series of inspiring talks and performances, a narrative is depicted about how science can transform the world, but also how it can lead to human ignorance, superstition and prejudice.

Artist Talk by Nicolas Maigret
Nicolas Maigret and Maria Roszkowska initiated Disnovation.org, a collective that develops situations of disturbance, speculation and debate. With their situations they challenge the dominant ideology of technological innovation.
Artist Talk by Sophie Rzepecky – Launch of Fictional Journal Issue 03. Uncanny
As the co-founder and editor of Fictional Journal, Rzepecky will present Fictional Journal's third edition Uncanny. Uncanny is developed in collaboration with Baltan Laboratories, featuring a diverse mix of contributions reflecting on AI and the complex relation between creator and creation.
Performance: Eingeweide by Marco Donnarumma in collaboration with Margherita Pevere
Eingeweide is a ritual about the process of two unstable bodies growing together to form one system. Two human performers and an artificially intelligent prosthesis perform a choreographic struggle of unity and transformation, bending sensuality and symbolism. What does it mean to create a machine that is truly and fully autonomous, independent from human control? And what happens when a machine becomes part of a human body? Read more...
Ruben Baart from Next Nature Network will moderate the day.
Frankenstein exhibition
The Frankenstein Exhibition raises questions about the responsibility we have towards technology. And showing us the unlimited possibilities. The installations at the exhibition emphasize the (potential) learning mechanisms of technology and question whether or not AI and robotics soon will make decisions for us, with us or against us?

On March 6, 2012, WRAP's Saifullah Khawaja, Director of the Bangladesh Office, conducted yet another fire safety training course.
The one-day training course was launched in 2011 as a way to help Bangladeshi factories prevent fires and improve fire safety measures, facilities, drills and planning. The course has been taught multiples times in Bangladesh and is also being expanded to other countries in Asia.
The March 6 course was taught at Apex Aldechi Footwear Limited, and was rated very highly by attendees, every one of whom ranked the course as "excellent" or "good" in all aspects—course content, presentation, usefulness, training area and more.
"It was a very good training. It's key to know factory fie safety and to know how to avoid high risks," said one attendee.
Participants repeatedly stated how helpful the course was for safety in factories and mentioned they would like to take WRAP fire safety trainings regularly. "I hope and request that our management will arrange another course for us in the future," said a third attendee.
(The full course description can be found on our website, along with a schedule of training dates).

text: Flying my trusty P-47 the other day, my plane took some lead and started to leak fuel. About a minute later the engine spluttered and died. In the vain hope that I could restart it I hit the 'i' key (default start engine). The engine started ran and stopped. I hit the 'i' key again, and kept tapping it constantly. The engine starts and keeps running. Now before this point I was heading to the ground, but with the engine running effectively at idle, because there is no throttle response, I managed to keep at a level heading until I could find some flat land to ditch on. Now I think this is more of an exploit than a bug, but I think it could or should be addressed so that when the fuel runs out....so does the engine, i.e it can't be started at all. Just a heads up for the development crew, who I think have created a brilliant piece of software, chears.

After the simplicity of yesterday, I had to do something a bit more interesting today - keep all my friends/fashion critics on their toes etc. That and the fact that I just felt more bold, unusual and seasonal meant that today's outfit became a bit of a trend-driven mix of textures, layered up to give a bit of depth. So go on, here's what I looked like this fine Thursday..
Jumper, Skirt & Rings - H&M; Top (underneath) & Earrings - Topshop; Tights & Shoes - River Island, Fur Cuffs - ASOS.
Told you I went a bit more seasonal and trend driven.. Sequins! They are the hottest party time trend right now, but since I've got no festivities on the agenda (so far) I decided to dress my sparkles down a bit for daytime. And of course, the only way to do that is to add a light knit, peter pan collar, faux fur and polka dot tights. You'd be forgiven for thinking this sounds a bit OTT for a college look, however, because the jumper is a plain dove-grey, I haven't gone crazy for other colours, I stuck to flats and only let the faux fur loose as cuffs it is just dressed down enough. Although I'm thinking that with the addition of heels this could be the perfect day-to-night outfit.. just wishing I had had somewhere to go. Oh, and final little detail - the popping pink gloss takes the look to another, playful level.. This gloss was *free* with this month's COSMOPOLITAN, go snap it up! Love and kisses, Tara xox

Top Ten Words to Describe How Your Favourite Music Genre Makes You FeelWas listening to a particular band today and a whole wave of emotions washed over me - all positive. What word would you say describes best how your favourite music genre makes you feel?
The Top Ten
Well...first and foremost. It definitely puts a smile on my face. - Britgirl
Ah! The Brassiere Blues. Miss Lucretia "Legs Akimbo" Lovelock did summa her finest work to that number:).
I sense that ol' nostalgia that was mentioned is creeping in again. Still, the memories are enough to keep that boat afloat aren't they...? :). - Britgirl
Not the depressed kind obviously. I'm talking about the absolute happiness that you feel while listening to it that actually makes you cry. - Britgirl
Ah don' cry,
Cause, well, Ah'm a guy.
So that ain't why.
They's just' sumpin' in mah... eye.
Yes and yes again. And largely as lamentation for youth that seems to have slipped by quicker 'n a weasel in a henhouse. Said it before - totally wasted on the young.
I don't know if it's the same for everyone but it makes me feel like I've been welcomed and accepted into a huge loving family. No other music genre has ever made me feel this way. It's a special feeling. - Britgirl
That's right. An' next Christmas, d'whole blues 'n' boogie fambly comin' t'yer digs. Don' fret. We bring the jugs an' the crawdads an' peel the ducks 'n' rabbits. You just' burn'em right, an' everybody be so happy settin' wit' they favo(u)rite hon'rary 'Merican cuzzin girl:)).
I would say it's like "standin' on Everest, 'cept it's warm as two jiggers o'Jack" but I wouldn't have a clue what I'd be chatting about... ;). - Britgirl
The Contenders
Goosebump rushes... Even if it's only playing in my head.
I realised when I was listening to all my favourites that this word describes perfectly the way it makes me feel. It fills an emptiness I once felt. It was worth waiting so many years for. - Britgirl

These sandwiches are inspired by cemitas, a specialty of Puebla, Mexico, consisting of a brioche-style bun with a schnitzel filling. We've used bakery-bought slider buns for convenience and added a spicy, smoky chipotle sauce. Most of the elements can be prepared in advance, including the veal schnitzels, which can be fried ahead of time, then heated in the oven when you're ready to serve them. Makes 16.
Veal schnitzel rolls with chipotle sauce
Nov 18, 2015 1:00pm
Lisa Featherby recipe for veal schnitzel rolls with chipotle sauce.
- 30 mins preparation
- 25 mins cooking
- 500 gm piece of veal fillet
- For dusting: seasoned plain flour
- 2 eggs whisked with 100ml milk
- 150 gm fine soft breadcrumbs
- 16 brioche buns, to serve (see note)
- 200 gm butter, coarsely chopped
- 200 gm Danish feta, coarsely crumbled
- 1 avocado, diced
- To serve: coriander leaves
Chipotle sauce
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 100 gm brown sugar
- 80 ml (1/3 cup) brown rice vinegar
- 100 gm chipotles in adobo
- 100 gm canned tomato
- 1For chipotle chilli sauce, heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and fry until starting to caramelise (3-5 minutes). Add sugar and vinegar, bring to the boil for 1 minute, then reduce heat to medium, add chipotles and tomato, and simmer for flavours to infuse (5-7 minutes). Transfer to a blender, process until smooth, season to taste and refrigerate until required. Will keep refrigerated for 2 weeks.
- 2Cut veal thinly across the grain into 16 slices, then pound each to 3mm thick with a meat mallet. Place flour, egg mixture and breadcrumbs in separate bowls. Dust each piece of veal with flour, dip in eggwash, then coat in crumbs, shaking off excess, and place on a tray.
- 3Preheat oven to 130C. Halve brioche buns, place on an oven tray and warm in oven (5-7 minutes).
- 4Heat a quarter of the butter in a large frying pan over high heat, add a quarter of the veal and fry until golden and just cooked (2-3 minutes each side). Keep warm in oven while you fry remaining veal in batches in remaining butter.
- 5To serve, place veal schnitzels on bun bases, top with feta, avocado and coriander, top with sauce and serve warm with extra sauce.
Note Brioche buns are available from select bakeries and delicatessens.
