Interrelated successive transformation measures of nitrification are performed by distinctive microbial teams – the ammonia-oxidizers composed of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizers such as for example as well as for AOA and AOB for community composition with a growing relative abundance LY2140023 of OTU03 designated to sublineage V from August onward indicating its essential role in nitrite oxidation. Ke et al. 2013 Specific niche LY2140023 market differentiation amongst NOB continues to be proposed in a number of research in both aquatic and terrestrial habitats (Schramm et al. 1999 Garnier and Cébron 2005 Ke et al. 2013 Ollivier et al. 2013 Placella and Firestone 2013 Shifts between NB and NS have already been been shown to be a rsulting consequence different strategies linked to substrate affinity (Attard et al. 2010 It's been recommended that NB are genes had been used as focus on. NS-like and NB-like NOBs were targeted by primer models for 16S rRNA genes for genes and NS particular for NB. As primers for NS-like genes have already been examined and been shown to be nonspecific (Ke et al. 2013 we decided particular 16S rRNA gene primers to focus on NS-like NOB. PCRs had been performed regarding to Ollivier et al. (2013) main PCR variables are shown in Supplementary Desk S1. Serial dilutions from the plasmids filled with fragments from the marker genes (Supplementary Desk S1) had been used for regular curve calculations. To look for the specificity and appropriate fragment size from the amplified qPCR items a melting curve evaluation was executed after qPCR for every sample accompanied by gel electrophoresis on the 2% agarose gel for arbitrarily chosen samples. Efficiencies attained had been above 80% and (NB) and (AOA and AOB) (Supplementary Desk S2; Figure ?Amount11). Amounts of 16S rRNA genes for NS had been in the number of 107 to 108 gene copies per g earth dry fat whereas LY2140023 NB had been lower in plethora with 105 to 106 gene duplicate numbers. Exceptions had been several sampling sites with high gene duplicate quantities exceeding 107. Gene duplicate quantities indicative for NS elevated from Apr to Might and declined somewhat in June and August/Oct when lowest beliefs had been detected. In the plethora of NS-like NOB risen to its optimum November. Oddly enough the seasonal dynamics of AOA plethora carefully resembled the development from the NS gene plethora pattern using a drop in August and Oct and highest beliefs in-may and November. AOB plethora on the other hand exhibited highest gene duplicate quantities in August and Oct coinciding with the LSM16 cheapest gene abundances for AOA and NS; november lowest gene duplicate quantities had been discovered in Might/June and. Throughout the whole season AOB duplicate numbers (in the number of 106) had been generally less than AOA (in the number of 108). With regards to statistical significance adjustments by the bucket load for NS weren't significant following the examined model was corrected for spatial autocorrelation. For AOA AOB and NB nevertheless significant changes had been present for the June-August changeover (< 0.01) aswell for the reduction in AOA (< 0.001) and NB (< 0.05) between October and November as well as for NB in planting season (> 0.01).

In the 16S rRNA dataset we discovered 40 OTUs designated to genus predicated on 97% series similarity from the adjustable area 3 but an individual OTU accounted for a lot more than 99% of reads connected with this genus. This specific OTU also was the LY2140023 next most abundant indication in the complete dataset and was symbolized by 5.4 million reads (~1.1% of the complete bacterial dataset). For the phylum < 0.001) and from August to Oct (< 0.01) when this OTU reached its annual optimum decreasing significantly again between Oct and November (< 0.05) preserving relatively constant amounts between May and August (Supplementary Amount S1). This NB-OTU at some schedules exhibited high correlation towards the NS-OTUs (specifically in Apr and August). Comparative abundances from the 3 NS-OTUs were steady through the initial 3 sampling dates of the entire year. For any three OTUs the abundances elevated from June to August (< 0.05) except OTU01 that was not significant (= 0.06). Oddly enough the actions of OTUs 01 and 02 both dropped during the past due season sampling schedules whereas OTU03 continued to be stable thus raising its plethora set alongside the various other OTUs (Supplementary Amount S1). OTUs demonstrated general positive correlations.

Keep MHAG Database Clean
We are aware that some people complain MHAG calculator allows impossible talisman.
We adopted the current method because of the new talisman rules for MHP3rd. It does allow impossible talisman. But our admin will help to keep the database clean and accurate.
To maintain the high quality of MHAG database, our admins moderate entries according to the following rules.
1. Sets with impossible talisman (or combination) will be removed, unless it can be easily fixed with a correct talisman.
2. Sets with large portion of wasted skill points will be removed, unless the owner specify their reason to keep it.
3. Redundant entries, if posted at the same time or by the same author, will be removed.
4. In case a set can be easily improved (for example, use less weapon slot, or add a charm), a new entry will be posted to replace the old set (with same owner name and set name).
It's our goal to keep MHAG database from impossible sets and useless sets. But we still encourage people to save sets for their daily hunts, even if it's not optimal. I, myself, loves sets that can be easily created, and without rare talisman.
But our admins are human beings, so we may make mistakes. To help us moderating sets, users are recommended to do the following.
1. Create an account, so users can manage their sets in the future. Or if not, at least use a specific owner name for each saved entry.
2. Use a detailed set name. Show the purpose of the set, or/and your description.

Is Chuck Schumer cutting Republicans' attack ads for them?
Sen. Chuck Schumer, the third-ranking Democrat in the Senate, suggested during a speech Tuesday that Congress's focus on passing the Affordable Care Act compromised his party's efforts to restore the economy.
| Washington
Sen. Charles Schumer (D) of New York says his party made a mistake by pushing to pass Obamacare in 2010.
That's right: The third-ranking Democrat in the Senate says that expending legislative energy on President Obama's health-care bill was an unforced error. It used up too much time and distracted the White House and its legislative allies from continuing efforts to bolster the economy, which should have been their top priority, according to Senator Schumer.
Worse, the Affordable Care Act did not help that many people who actually vote, Schumer said. Only about a third of the uninsured at the time the bill passed were registered to vote, and only a fraction of that third actually voted, he said.
"After passing the stimulus, Democrats should have continued to propose middle class-oriented programs and built on the partial success of the stimulus," said Schumer in an appearance Tuesday at the National Press Club. "But unfortunately, Democrats blew the opportunity the American people gave them."
Wow, is Schumer right in this instance? He's said in the past that he would have picked a different time to push the Affordable Care Act, but to repeat the argument now seems to be a conscious break with Obama administration orthodoxy.
If nothing else, he's making Republicans gleeful. They're holding up Schumer's comments as yet more evidence that Obamacare shouldn't have passed in the first place.
"So the Democrat Party got Schumered today," tweeted Joe Pounder, president of America Rising, a GOP opposition research political-action committee.
Mr. Pounder linked to a video of Schumer's speech and said, "we'll be using this a lot." Presumably, he meant that they'd be using it a lot in attack ads aimed at Democrats in 2016.
At its heart, Schumer's view of how Democrats need to alter their image to win in 2016 is relatively widely held in Washington. The party thinks it needs to win over the broad swath of middle- and lower-income voters whose pay has stagnated for years.
Republicans want to be that party, too. They just have different ideas as to how to proceed. They would not agree with Schumer that an embrace of "strong and active government" is the answer.
"Conservatives certainly will disagree with Schumer on many of his policy proposals to boost the middle class. But in terms of his basic political critique – and the failure of both parties to substantively address middle-class anxieties – Schumer is spot on," writes John Fund in the right-leaning National Review Online.
But did Obamacare really get in the way of Democrats doing more for the middle class?
Remember the context: 2009 was the year of huge government relief programs. The TARP financial bailout bill had passed in the last months of the Bush presidency. Mr. Obama signed a big stimulus bill that included everything from tax cuts to teacher pay and highway programs.
There was talk of a second round of stimulus. But the appetite for more spending wasn't there, among either then-majority congressional Democrats or Republicans. If Obamacare got in the way, what did it get in the way of?
The health-care reforms of the Affordable Care Act had been a Democratic priority for years, maybe decades, despite the relatively small number of voters they would directly benefit. That's caused some progressives to bristle at Schumer's utilitarian analysis of what the party should have done with its Senate and House majorities in the first years of the Obama era.
"We don't live in a magical world where the Democrats could have passed immigration reform in 2009 and health care reform on the eve of the 2010 midterms," writes Martin Longman in the left-leaning Washington Monthly. "Some things couldn't wait and other things had to wait, and still other things never got done because the opportunity to do them was crowded out by the economic crisis."
As 2016 nears, it will be interesting to see whether other top Democrats begin to agree with Schumer's view here.

+ Ticketing & Volunteering
Early bird price closes on 24th May
Late price closes on 31st May
Code of Conduct:
The Melbourne Swing Festival operates under Swing Patrol's official Code of Conduct. We urge you to familiarise yourself with it before you register. If at any time during the event you feel unsafe or witness inappropriate behaviour, there will be a dedicated staff member at each venue to go to for help. Let's all work together to make the event a fun and positive experience for everyone.
New Pass Options:
Due to overwhelming demand, we have created new pass options.
After much deliberation and exploring our options, we have settled on a creative solution to be able to offer more places in the workshops and at the entire event.
We have created new passes called 'Gilded Gold Pass' and 'Socialite Pass'.
These are both the same as their namesakes but with no access to the Sunday night main event "Groovie Movie"; Gilded Gold being a Gold Pass without the Sunday night event, and Socialite being a Social pass without the Sunday night event. Note, these passes will still get you into the Sunday Late Night, so there will still be dancing to be done!
What do you get with each of these passes?
Gilded Gold Pass (Equivalent to a Gold pass) - This gets you access to all the workshops and most of the socials, but excludes access to the Sunday Social "Groovie Movie".
Socialite Pass (Equivalent to a Social pass) - This gets you access to all social events, excluding the Sunday Social "Groovie Movie".
Call out to Leads:
We still need more leads to help with evening out of numbers.
Follows please note:
We still do not have too many spots left for follows, particularly in level 3 and 4. When these streams sell out, that's it, until someone cancels. Therefore, we need to start a new waiting list (more like a notification list), where you will get a notification if a pass becomes available, for instance, if someone cancels their pass at the last minute. If you are still interested in going on this list, please sign up here: [email protected]
Existing Sold Out Passes:
If you want to do EVERYTHING, go with the GOLD pass which includes all workshop and social events. Then just swing in and out of the festival as you wish.
If you'd like to do workshops ONLY, you can purchase one of the WORKSHOP passes (Silver, Saturday Day or Sunday Day) described below.
If you'd like to attend the social events ONLY, you can purchase a SOCIAL pass. There will be limited tickets available for cash at the door at the social events, but buying a Social Pass secures a spot and saves you money.
Casual Pay at the Door:
If you decide to attend the social events on the weekend casually i.e. picking and choosing and just turning up, you do not need to register or purchase any pass. Simply come along and pay at the door on the night.
Gilded Gold Pass (excludes Sunday Night Social) - $380
Socialite Pass (excludes Sunday Night Social) - $180
(Price increase after the 24th May)
Gilded Gold Pass (excludes Sunday Night Social) - $430

Yesterday we gave you 10 great options for a New Year's Eve for under $60. That's cheap, people! But for some of us, NYE is the one night of the year we don't want cheap. We want to blow it out, spend the year-end bonus (do those even exist anymore??), put on our fanciest outfits and hobnob with the big shots.
Here are five ideas for a super extravagant L.A. New Year's Eve, dinner included.
The Bazaar by José Andrés
The Bazaar is throwing its annual Spanish Masquerade ball, which includes multiple dining areas and tray-passed tapas. Cava and cocktails will be provided at stations scattered throughout the restaurant. A house DJ will provide inspiration for your dorky dance moves. Tickets are $195 per person right now — on Christmas they go up to $250. Purchase here.
Bar Marmont
I mean, it's New Year's Eve. You might as well go full Hollywood. You can get into the party at Bar Marmont (hosted by Sean Patrick and Damon Peruzzi — dunno who they are but that's because I don't know what "nightlife impresario" means) for $50, but if you want to take part in the "VIP open bar" and dinner, it'll cost you $200 per person. DJs, drinking, fancy people ogling included. Purchase tickets here.
Santa Monica's most luxurious restaurant is not pulling any punches for New Year's Eve. From 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., you can get a table for the bargain price of $150 per person. That will get you a four-course dinner. For the second seating, beginning at 8:30 p.m., a spot at the table will cost you $275 per person for a six-course dinner, plus music and dancing. It should be noted that neither of these options includes booze. Details can be found here, you can call 310-395-0881 to reserve.
The Varnish
Our favorite cocktail bar is throwing an intimate New Year's bash with unlimited cocktail service and Champagne punch. A late dinner will be catered by Belcampo Meat Co., and snacks will be served throughout the night. The Jamie Elman Trio will provide entertainment with live jazz. Bonus: the fifth annual Varnish Limbo Contest. $195 per person. Reservations can be made for two to six people by contacting firstname.lastname@example.com.
While never cheap, Maude usually offers one of the best-value tasting menus around, at just about $100 per person for nine courses, service included. But for New Year's Eve, they are really upping the ante. For $500 per person, you can hang out with chef Curtis Stone while he makes you a tasting menu highlighting some of the year's best ingredients, including caviar, lobster and truffles. Call (310) 859-3418 for reservations.

Hobby Lobby is a family-owned chain of arts and crafts stores. The owners, the Green family, don't want the company insurance plan to offer emergency contraceptives to employees. They say their company is entitled to a religious freedom exemption from the Affordable Care Act's mandate on contraceptives because the requirement violates their religious beliefs. The ACA says all health insurance policies must cover, without cost to the patient, all methods of birth control for women approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Is Hobby Lobby right? Do corporations have religious freedom rights based on the beliefs of their owners? Or should the employee's choice in matters of reproduction trump the choice of the owners of a corporation? What's your view?

Snapshots - words with paintings
these words were written for the exhibition "snapshots", a series of small oil painting panelos, held at Windowgallery Het Depot, rustenburgerstraat 385 in Amsterdam
"I'm a painting photographer. Painting is active photography.
What I do is inconspicuous. It's close to the natural perception of the healthy physical body, where a veil of normality keeps everything hidden. We've all been part of this reality, for as long as we can remember. After studying the laws of colour, form, composition and perspective, I am nothing more than a good painter. One out of many. What is special about my work, is on the inside. And, if I'm lucky, it procreates - from one inside to another.
Of course I want to roam the bounderies, to see who else I could be. Or, like in these snapshots, to seek the casual, so that I can come to myself. But in the end, I want to make pictures to be used by anyone, as a place to store one's own treasures.
I want to hear the room breathe. To open up the water. To give my existence to something yet to exist.
Perception is: to create reality
Who masters the rules, can bend them. One can learn to open things up, without breaking them.
One has to learn to listen, hear the silence breath, to feel how things come walking in on their little socks. Cautiously, I learn how to do it. And then I step into it, and make things new."

No visas required for visiting Ecuador and the Galapagos as a British national. On arrival you will be granted entry for up to 90 days as a tourist. You may be asked to provide proof of onward or return travel, details of your accommodation and proof that you have sufficient funds to cover your stay. Your passport needs to be valid for 6 months from your date of arrival in Ecuador.
How to get to Ecuador
For travellers from the UK there are no direct flights to Ecuador. The best way is on either Iberia via Madrid or KLM via Amsterdam. KLM also serves many regional airports in the UK. Flights depart and arrive the same day. There is also a good option on Avianca via Bogota, which departs London in the evening and is an overnight flight.
In Ecuador the standard voltage is 120V and the standard frequency is 60 Hz. This is typically the same as the US, so US travellers do not usually require a converter or adaptor. The standard voltage in the UK is 230V which means you may require a voltage adaptor for some devices. Nowadays most devices such as mobile phone chargers, USB chargers and laptop chargers are multi voltage which means they will switch automatically to the network voltage. However, some high power devices such as hair dryers don't usually handle different voltages. Always check the label to see what voltage range the device works within. If you try to use a device with the wrong voltage it will most likely break.
Plugs & Sockets
Ecuador uses plug and socket types A and B as pictured below. Most universal adaptors will cover both types.
Capital City
Time difference
5 hours behind GMT
What is the currency in Ecuador?
In Ecuador the currency is the US dollar. You may come across some 5 cent, 10 cent, 25 cent and 50 cent coins that are Ecuadorian minted, but these can be used in parallel with the US equivalents.
Obtaining dollars in Ecuador
ATM's are widely available in all major towns and cities. When drawing money out from an ATM try to use one that is located inside a bank or other building such as a shopping centre. Some ATM's are guarded for extra security. Although the risk of being robbed at an ATM is low, we recommend you take these basic precautions.
Changing money in Ecuador
Euros can usually be exchanged at some places, but it is more difficult to exchange British pounds. We advise you to obtain US dollars before your trip or draw out of an ATM when in Ecuador.
Cards or cash?
We would suggest a mixture of credit / debit cards and cash is best to take with you. Credit and debit cards are accepted at most hotels, higher end shops and restaurants. Smaller artisan shops, kiosks, markets and restaurants in more remote areas will likely only accept cash, so make sure you have some with you as a back up.
Bring small dollar bill denominations
When you draw money out of an ATM in Ecuador it will usually dispense $20 dollar bills. Getting change in Ecuador can be somewhat difficult and $50 dollar bills will likely not be accepted in most places. We advise you to take a substantial amount of $10, $5 and $1 dollar bills with you. This will come in useful for tips, taxi rides, visiting a market and making smaller purchases.
You should confirm with your doctor that all courses and boosters are up to date as recommended for life. For Ecuador the course or booster that is usually advised is Hepatitis A. Other vaccines to be considered are Diphtheria, Hepatitis B, Rabies, Tetanus, Typhoid and Yellow Fever.
A yellow fever vaccination certificate is not required for entry into Ecuador unless you are entering Ecuador from a country where there is a risk of yellow fever. A yellow fever vaccination is only advised for those visiting the Amazon region of Ecuador. If your itinerary is limited to Quito, Guayaquil and the Galapagos, then the yellow fever vaccination is not usually advised. Please check with your doctor according to your own personal medical history.
Malaria is categorised as low to no risk throughout the country and antimalarial medication is not usually advised.
Mosquitoes are only really found in the Amazon region and are not normally found at higher altitudes. When visiting the Amazon we recommend protecting against insect and mosquito bites as much as possible. Wearing lightweight long pants, long sleeved shirts and using insect repellents with high concentrations of DEET are all recommended.
Disclaimer: All the information we provide here is purely for guidance purposes and we are not medical experts. We always recommend that you make an appointment with your doctor 6-8 weeks before departure who will be able to properly assess your personal medical history, give accurate advice and advise on exactly which immunisations or medical precautions you need to take.

Vietnam's forests under threat from new roads and projects as the country grows and expands after the pandemic.
Climate change impacts worsen in Mekong Delta
The environment in Mekong Delta is severely being affected by hasher natural disasters, water pollution and natural resources depletion, said a scholar.
At a workshop on climate change adaptation capacity building for the region held in Can Tho city on December 28, Ho Thi Thu Ho from the Can Tho University attributed these issues to global climate change, rough interventions in the Mekong River's course made by countries along the river, and low environmental awareness of the public.
Agreeing with Ho, Trinh Le Nguyen, Director of the Vietnamese NGO People and Nature Reconciliation (PanNature), pointed to the worst drought in a century that hit the delta last year. In 2017, the region went through its annual flooding season, finding almost no resources coming from the upstream areas, he added.
Upstream dams have led to a reduction of alluvium, thus causing landslides across Ca Mau, An Giang, and Tien Giang, Nguyen said.
Nguyen Minh Quang from the Can Tho University noted that two third of local economic projects pose high risks of pollution, while rapid urbanisation has created more problems in waste treatment.
He suggested communications activities as a solution to raising public awareness and urged stronger actions of the Mekong River Commission against upstream hydropower projects.
Participating experts put forth a number of measures, which included developing farming models suitable to saline environment in Ca Mau and Ben Tre instead of trying to desalinate local water sources.
They advised farmers to follow high-tech agro-forestry and green agricultural practices.
They also asked the authorities to better handle the issues of rapid urbanisation and migration.

The third Shadow
and Act Filmmaker challenge winner, And
Then…, played to a packed house on Wednesday night at the Dim Mak Studios in
Hollywood. In fact, the first screening was so well-attended, there was a second showing afterward. Co-written by thespian-turned filmmaker Ka'ramuu Kush and actress Aisha
Hinds, and directed by Kush, the film is described as a "coming of womanhood" story that deals with one woman's
confrontation of issues surrounding body image, communication, and the
psychology of sex.
Film leads Diandra Lyle and Kush give memorable turns as star-crossed
lovers embarking on a quest for sexual fulfillment and trust, with the
assistance of friend, Baybee played by Vanessa Williams. With a sultry score,
and hints of Chicago swag, the film delves into areas of black sexuality that
aren't usually embraced in mainstream cinema, making it both refreshing and
perhaps a bit controversial. The last scene
plays up this tension well, combining sensuality with
grounded performances and natural dialogue.
In attendance were several notable black filmmakers and actors including
Bill Duke, who also serves as consulting producer on the project, Roger
Guenveur Smith, John Singleton, Reggie Rock Bythewood, Omari Hardwick, Dorian
Missick, Emayatzy Corinealdi, Alimi Ballard, Aisha Hinds, and Vanessa Williams,
among many others. The film was produced by Cheryl Bedford, Sean O'Halloran, and Kush. A lively Q&A with the cast and crew followed.
The film will make its online premiere on this site in the coming weeks. Stay tuned.
The S&A Films Black Filmmaker Challenge is a contest in which S&A Films (a partnership between Tambay and Rodney Parnther) funds a short film by a black filmmaker, about black people, based on a script selected from eligible entries. There have been 3 of them thus far (Nikyatu Jusu's Black Swan Theory, Rod Gailes' Soft Focus, and now Ka'ramuu Kush's And Then…), with the long-term goal being to eventually also fund feature films.
An announcement on when the next challenge will begin is forthcoming.

Rick Gurnsey, Nikolaus Troje; Stimulus magnification compensates for eccentricity dependent sensitivity loss for first and second order biological motion stimuli. Journal of Vision 2009;9(8):610. doi: https://doi.org/10.1167/9.8.610.
Download citation file:
© ARVO (1962-2015); The Authors (2016-present)
Purpose: Size scaling compensates for eccentricity-dependent sensitivity loss in a point-light-walker (PLW) direction discrimination task (Gurnsey et al., Vision Research, 2008) and PLW direction discrimination thresholds reach similar asymptotically low levels at large sizes for eccentricities of 0 to 16° (Gurnsey et al., submitted). Here we ask how PLW direction discrimination thresholds change as a function of stimulus size and eccentricity for first and second order stimuli.
Methods: On each trial a PLW was shown moving left or right at an angle (±α°) from straight ahead. An adaptive threshold procedure was used to determine threshold α at a range of stimulus sizes (uniform magnifications) at eccentricities from 0 to 16° in the right visual field. Second order walkers comprised uniform luminance dots embedded in dynamic noise (SO1) or vice versa (SO2). First order walkers were structurally identical to the second order walkers but had a higher mean luminance in the uniform luminance region; FO1 and FO2, respectively.
Results: Within each condition dividing stimulus size at each eccentricity (E) by an appropriate F = 1 + E/E2 (where E2 is the eccentricity at which stimulus size must double to achieve equivalent-to-foveal performance) collapsed all thresholds onto a single psychometric function. The average E2 values were: E2(S01) = 2.85, E2(S02) = 2.03, E2(F01) = 1.50 and E2(FO2) = 0.80; asymptotic thresholds averaged ±3.91°, ±3.83°, ±3.90° and ±4.17° respectively. However, SO1 stimuli could not be discriminated at 8 and 16° and had to be much larger at fixation in order for thresholds to be measured.
Conclusions: Second order signals can elicit PLW direction discrimination thresholds similar to first order signals. For second order stimuli, noise dots in a uniform background convey information about walker direction at much smaller sizes than do uniform dots in a noise background.

There's a song on Train's latest album that's either the most brilliant or the most batshit-crazy you'll hear all year. It's called "You Can Finally Meet My Mom," and the narrative behind it goes like this: Singer Patrick Monahan tells the love of his life that when he dies and goes to heaven, he doesn't want to pal around with any famous people, including, but certainly not limited to, "Gilda Radner, Buddha, or the dude who had Pop Rocks and soda at the same time." Nope, he wants to hang with his girl. Plus, she'll finally get to meet his dead mother. It's filled with lots of namedropping and sentimentality that collide over four minutes and 40 seconds. Oh, and it's catchy as hell. The rest of California 37 is the usual Train ride of mainstream rock polished to gold standards with a few lyrical curveballs thrown in. Hopefully they'll play "You Can Finally Meet My Mom" when they come to town. You'll most definitely hear "Drops of Jupiter" and "Hey, Soul Sister," the most annoying song on the planet three years ago. — Michael GallucciTrain With Mat Kearney and Andy Grammer. 7 p.m. Thursday, August 16. Jacobs Pavilion at Nautica. Tickets: $35-$75. Call 800-745-3000 or visit ticketmaster.com.
Red Wanting Blue
The grassroots appeal of these Columbus throwback rockers (who channel everything you ever loved or hated about the safer side of '90s alt-rock) finally carried them into the mainstream last month when they played "Audition" from their latest album on David Letterman's show. Like Hootie & the Blowfish, the band they most sound like, Red Wanting Blue's heartland-approved mom rock is made for summertime patios and casual reunions for recently graduated college kids who don't want to grow up. — Gallucci
8 p.m., $12. Musica.
Low-fi indie-rock heroes Sebadoh had a pretty stellar year last year. They reissued a deluxe version of their best album, 1994's too-stoned-to-give-a-fuck classic Bakesale, and then went on the road, playing most of the songs from it and the almost as excellent followup album, Harmacy (which is still waiting for its own deluxe reissue). Frontman Lou Barlow even seemed to crack a smile through the frowns that were planted on his face through most of the '90s. Sebadoh are back on the road, playing their classics again. The band is opening for itself on this tour. Barlow will perform some solo songs, and the other two guys – Jason Loewenstein and Bob D'Amico – team up as Circle of Buzzards for a short set. Once the short tour winds down, Barlow's other group, Dinosaur Jr., will release a new album next month and then tour. Sebadoh have also laid down some tracks for a new album, which should be out sometime next year. For a guy once saddled with the "slacker" label, Barlow sure is doing his best to lose it lately. — GallucciSebadoh/Lou Barlow/Circle of Buzzards9 p.m. Friday, August 17. Grog Shop. Tickets: $14, $12 in advance. Call 216-321-5588 or visit grogshop.gs.
Our Last Night
New Hampshire punks Our Last Night smooth out some of their rougher edges on their third album, which comes out this week. That basically means that the pop side of the quintet's pop-punk equation is more prominent now, giving some songs (especially the title tune, the record's first single) more of a fighting chance with fans who may have been a little turned off by their more metalcore moments. But it's not all sparkles and glitter, as their ferocious live show will undoubtedly prove. — Gallucci
With Skies of December, Asyria, and Motives. 8:30 p.m., $8 ADV, $10 DOS. Grog Shop.
Shonen Knife
What's more remarkable? That the all-female Japanese trio Shonen Knife have been around for 30 years? Or that their recently released 18th album, Pop Tune, sounds exactly like their first one? We're not complaining. It's not like the Ramones – whom Shonen Knife paid tribute to last year with a covers album and who are the band's most obvious reference point – really mixed things up. So yeah, Pop Tune is filled with three-chord, three-minute blasts of catchy, if kinda repetitive, garage-punk. What of it? — Gallucci
8:30 p.m., $12. Beachland Ballroom.
Sharon Van Etten
Her fans might disagree, but beloved indie-rock It Girl/singer-songwriter Sharon Van Etten has much in common with reviled indie-rock It Girl/internet-sensation Lana Del Rey. Their latest albums came out within a week of each other earlier this year, they both have New York/New Jersey roots, and they both make somber, moody songs about how much love can suck. But where Del Rey was viciously dismissed after a train-wreck of a performance on Saturday Night Live before her album even came out, Van Etten's album has been heralded as one of the year's best by nearly every music blog on the planet. And there are certainly moments on Tramp, which is her third record, where she gets into a groove that pulls all these songs of heartbreak into a place with some very dark corners. Van Etten plays the Rock Hall's free "Summer in the City" series this week, and we're guessing this one's going to be packed. So get there early. You should also get there early to check out the openers, jangly Kent folk-rockers Bethesda. — GallucciSharon Van Etten With Bethesda. 7 p.m. Wednesday, August 22. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. Free. Call 216-781-7625 or visit rockhall.com.
The Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band
These Indiana-based shit-kickers made their name by hitting the road and staying on it until they couldn't play another note. Their albums — the latest, Between the Ditches, just came out — don't do their live shows justice. The trio —led by the Rev., a grizzly bear kinda guy — plays a bluesy mix of Americana and country that sounds like something you might hear in a juke joint you probably shouldn't be in after dark. But that's exactly what makes their concerts so damn exciting. You never know what might spill. — Gallucci
8:30 p.m., $8 ADV, $10 DOS. Grog Shop.

|Telar Ring Deng, South Sudan Presidential advisor, gives speech at the South Sudan-China Investment Forum on April 12, 2014. (Photo/ People's Daily Online)
South Sudan has experienced Africa's longest-running civil war, which ended in its independence in 2011. As the youngest state in the world, everything needs to start from the beginning. The government hopes to remedy its lack of skills and technology with third party help, and make its abundant natural resources economically productive.
The South Sudan-China Investment Forum was held in Beijing on April 12 2014, aiming to identify and make effective use of investment and trade opportunities in South Sudan and China. Telar Ring Deng, South Sudan Presidential advisor, attended the conference in the company of a business delegation, and established contacts with more than 200 Chinese businessmen.
Deng said: "South Sudan certainly has lots to learn from China, and the Chinese government has long been involved in valuable projects for South Sudan, including agriculture, water supply, building construction and others." He also expressed his appreciation for China's long-term contribution to the economic development of South Sudan, along with a hope for further cooperation between China and South Sudan. He emphasized that South Sudan has vast investment opportunities, and that the government is also keen to encourage and support more Chinese companies to invest in South Sudan, especially in the oil and agriculture sectors
Deng added that the government has reinforced the security of investors since the crisis, and is focused on protecting their interests. It has adopted a series of measures to prevent the risk of sabotage and ensure the safety of foreign investors, such as a crisis control committee directed by the vice president, disarmament of militia in Juba, and a human rights committee.
"The number of China-based companies registered in South Sudan expanded last year," said Telar Ring Deng in an interview with People's Daily Online. "The government thanks these firms for their positive impact on South Sudan's development, and is now planning further cooperation with China, for example financial cooperation with China's Exim Bank." As South Sudan works to improve its preferential policies and attract more Chinese investors, Deng emphasized that the government has promised that there will be no nationalization of any private companies.

And a happy new year to you, too.
Weary and bleary-eyed (and that's just the players) we stumble into the fourth full Premier League matchday in the space of just ten days, and the first of 2013. Three points will be crucial in the eyes of many managers seeing as the Prem ratrace gets put to the back-burner after tomorrow till the middle of the month as the FA Cup and transfer window comes to the fore.
First off, Manchester United look the ideal bet to carry on their winning assault on the title at the DW Stadium today, and with Nemanja Vidic inching towards full fitness and instrumental in orchestrating a rare clean sheet for the league leaders against West Brom on Saturday, it may well be a profitable strategy to fall on the side of the Red Devils scoring unanswered in the second half of the season a lot more often than they did in the first half.
Wigan equipped themselves superbly in their dismantling of Aston Villa at the weekend, a result not foreseen by yours truly, but the Latics have struggled to score against the top teams at home this season whilst shipping them in at the other end, and today may be a similar story. Arsenal have rediscovered the joy of scoring as of recent, but look a tad short in the win market away to Southampton in the evening fixture.
A better option would be to stick with Theo Walcott to score anytime against the club where it all began for him. The England man has revelled in his new centre-forward of late, rounding off 2012 with a hat-trick against Newcastle, and may inflict further misery on his former employers who may get jaded late on following their gargantuan efforts at the Britannia Stadium last Saturday.
With Arsenal being just one of several odds-on shots in this midweek matchday, it is difficult to find value bets so a better strategy may well to be stick with the tried and tested. They don't come more tried and tested than backing both teams to score in an Everton match, as anyone who reads this column regularly knows, and with the opponents being vulnerable Newcastle albeit at what will be a vociferous St. James' Park, expect the bet to oblige yet again.
That match is the live televised fixture tomorrow evening, and simultaneously there will be another meeting of Mersey and North-East minds when Sunderland visit Liverpool. The Mackems are slowly and surely beginning to click into gear under the wile and guile of Martin O'Neill, and can at the very least avoid a heavy defeat at Anfield.
Manchester City got off the blocks quicker than Usain Bolt with a Visa credit card against Norwich on Saturday, with Edin Dzeko firing his side to a 2-0 lead inside less than five minutes. That scenario has been more anomaly than norm over the course of the season, and with a disciplined Stoke City side arriving at the Etihad this afternoon boosted by the return of key defenders Ryan Shawcross and Geoff Cameron from suspensions, City may well have to play their usual waiting game followed by a possible late show.
1) Manchester United to beat Wigan to nil 12/5 CORAL
2) Southampton vs. Arsenal Theo Walcott to score anytime 11/8 BETVICTOR
3) Newcastle vs. Everton Both teams to score 4/6 LADBROKES
4) Sunderland +1.5 Handicap to beat Liverpool 5/6 PINNACLEBET
5) Man City vs. Stoke 2nd Half Highest Scoring Half 6/5 WILLIAM HILL
Elsewhere, crisis club Aston Villa face a tough task in arresting the slide in the shape of a trip to the Liberty Stadium to play in-form Swansea today, while in the early fixture West Brom and Fulham fans can bask in the enjoyment of watching their respective clubs face each other whilst nursing a new year's hangover.
A Bale-less Tottenham should still be good enough for three points when entertaining Reading today, and across the capital West Ham will be eager for the same amount from their battle with Norwich in order to ease the anxious looks over their shoulder towards the relegation zone of the table.
Lastly, there is a good old-fashioned West London derby tomorrow evening when Harry Redknapp takes his beleaguered Hoops to Stamford Bridge. It will be interesting to see whether Chelsea or QPR, two clubs expected to be very busy in the transfer market this month, have any new faces in tow in time for their clash. We shall see.

Imagine my surprise on coming back from a lovely holiday in France to find an email announcing that my home has been featured on Sunday's "Get the Look Decor" post on the Etsy blog. I haven't read through all the comments yet - wow, a 130 people took the time to say something - but a lot of them seem to be very enthusiastic. I'm very flattered !
An Oscars-style thank you speech is probably in order. But let me just say this much : I'm very, very happy to have been selected ! Especially since - as one commenter rightfullly pointed out - I'm not that much of an Etsy girl...
So, if you're curious to read a short interview, find out my birth name (Pants ! I forgot to ask them not to publish my lastname) and check out various MCM furniture and accessories options inspired by the Fat Cat style and available on Etsy, head over here.
Oh and btw, now that I've gained a couple new readers (welcome guys !) and scored record pageview stats, posting around here might come to a stillstand again, as sadly my beloved Panasonic Lumix idiotensichere camera died a sudden and tragic death during said holiday. Too much red wine probably.
It's a pity really since I of course managed to score some interesting finds which are begging to be documented.

A 3 month old Staffie named Roxy was brought in to the Out Of Hours emergency service by her owners as she was lethargic and had been vomiting. On physical examination a suspected intestinal foreign body was noted. Unfortunately her owners were not insured and financially could not afford the surgical procedure.
We were lucky enough that SAIN was able to step forward and provide some financial help for these owners through the money they have raised through various fundraising activities. Roxy underwent surgery to remove both the foreign body (pieces of a plastic dog chew) and also a portion of her small intestine that was devitalized.
She recovered fully, and of course the owners are extremely grateful. Thank you to the staff involved and to SAIN for making the surgery possible!

Our Maltese Puppies as seen on
National Geographic's
Lakeshore Maltese was recently honored by National Geographic's Animal Planet when the producers of Dogs 101 asked to film our puppies for their show! My sweet pups are featured playing by our lake at the beginning and end of the program. Enjoy!
Hi, my name is Marilyn and my hobby is raising Maltese and Yorkshire Terriers. All of my puppies are raised in my house because they are pets and part of my family.
I am not a large breeder. These puppies are my life. They are what I live for, other than my son of course. I care for the dogs and puppies myself. Sire and Dam pedigrees are available available for all my puppies. Most are from AKC Champion lines.
My pups are carefully bred to the standards for show to pet quality and cared for with lots of love. They are available at 10 to 12 weeks old with good health, genetics, temperament and beauty of utmost importance.
I provide a Veterinarian Health Certificate and a certificate guarantee of health with a contract. I am there to answer and guide you with any questions about the dog throughout their lifetime.
These puppies are fed one of the highest rated puppy foods and are current on vaccinations, wormings and are vet checked. They are raised in a very clean, heated nursery, all puppy safe, which is comfortable and fun for them.
My Maltese have loving, sweet, gentle dispositions and are very healthy and small with baby doll faces. They are raised with TLC and played with for socialization because I love them dearly. They're already paper trained.
I sell a puppy as a pet for life with a spay/neuter contract and a puppy starter kit. I won't sell to puppy mills or backyard breeders. I'm available for questions anytime to help you give the best care to your puppy.
Please note that I do not ship because I need to meet the new owner in person and I believe you need to meet your new baby face-to-face.
Many of my happy puppy owners are from all over New England and the Northeast: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont.

The vehicle is available in both a coupe and convertible version for those that feel the need to drop the top. Set to hit showrooms this fall, the 2013 Aston Martin DB9 will sell for $185,400.

My maternal grandfather Lloyd was a Methodist minister, serving mostly in Alabama. During the earlier part of the last century, times were hard and the pastor was often given produce and other useful things in lieu of a monetary salary.
As the story goes, one afternoon, my grandmother welcomed a church member into her home. The woman had brought a basket piled high with fresh strawberries from her garden. "I thought the children would enjoy them," she said.
My grandmother Lloyd turned to my mother, Mary Lula, who was the middle child and was about five at the time. "Honey, take these into the kitchen and divide them into bowls for you, your brother and sister while this lady and I talk." Mary Lula eagerly complied.
After the lady left, my grandmother entered the kitchen and found three bowls on the table. Two of the bowls contained one strawberry apiece. The third bowl, which was set before Mary Lula at the table was empty, but evidence of a strawberry feast was all over the child's face in rosy splendor.
"What have you done?" my grandmother asked.
"I 'vided 'em," the child said.
Fortunately for Mary Lula, her mother had a sense of humor and a forgiving nature and this funny incident went down in the annals of family history.
Our grandchildren love to hear this story and many others like it, about their forebears. It makes their ancestors believable as people and gives the children a sense of who they are.
These days, many people are searching out their ancestors on various websites, tracing their family trees back several centuries, if they're lucky. I have found out some fascinating facts in this way, but when I see the names on the screen before me, I can't help but wonder what they were like as people. There are little hints, of course: the death of a child here, a marriage there, but I would love to have more. I want to know if there are any more "'Vided the strawberry" stories in my family tree. So as a gift to my grandchildren and future generations, I'm putting down all the stories I can remember. I want them to know that my daddy had perfect pitch and put himself through college by playing in the big dance bands. I want them to know that my mother was a Red Cross social worker during WWII who wrote letters home for injured soldiers.
I mentor a weekly writers' group and a large percentage of them are writing memoirs. This is valuable, but I would stress that a person doesn't have to be a skilled writer to save precious family stories for their children. Here are a few other ways:
1) You can make a computer file of your memories, adding to it when the notion—and the memory--strikes you.
2) You might be able to enlist a family member who would like to hear and write down these stories.
3) Making an audio recording is easier than it has ever been these days and has the added benefit of being in your own voice.
One of the ancestry websites likes to stress that they can find "leaves" for your family tree. I like to think of these unique, irreplaceable stories as blossoms among those leaves, making a bouquet that is a gift for generations to come.

Champagne Drip Delivers Bass-Heavy EP On Zeds Dead's Deadbeats
Champagne Drip has released a new four-track EP Millennia today via Zeds Dead's Deadbeats imprint. The label may be pretty new, but it is already making waves and up-and-comer Champagne Drip is the latest to make a statement with a release on the label.
The LA-based producer, real name Sam Pool, got his break with this project in 2014 putting out remixes for Bassnectar and on Mad Decent and has grown from there. This new EP sees that growth continue, as he incorporates various elements of dubstep, future bass, funk and trip-hop into the four songs. They don't all sound alike, nor do they completely clash.
"Millennia might be my most diverse Champagne Drip record to date. I've always found myself creating a lot of different styles no matter what I'm going for," says Champagne Drip of the EP. "This might be because my musical taste is so diverse. It feels really honest to make a record that has pop-electronic juxtaposed with dark-and-dirty experimental bass music."
Champagne Drip is going to have a busy end of the summer with touring across the globe. Head to his website for more information.
Stream the full EP below or pick it up here.

Dark Souls 2 got a few minutes of stage time at the Microsoft E3 2013 press conference today, and it's looking very handsome indeed. I loved the cold loneliness of Dark Souls' strange caverns and dungeons, but mostly kept playing to see what weird new thing I'd get to fight next. the metal turtle knight at 0:14 is a nice addition, and it looks as though the reflective statue monster traps the player inside the reflection of its mirrored shield at one point. Neat.

Mike Arrington took some time off from making up stories about Sequoia in China, Digg being acquired and Last FM/CBS to whine about Twitter going Hollywood .
Firt off…it's genius for Twitter.
Basically, a few smart Hollywood producers were smart enough to create some sick press off the nerds hate. I am further emboldened by the greatness of the idea by the initial negative reaction over on Nerdmeme.
Twitter is an ART FORM.
Twitter is engaging. Twitter when used right, offers tremendous context.
TV offers none of that today.
Of course we have not seen the product, so who knows. In the end, the product and content must be good.
Guaranteed I have been pushing for StockTwits TV for the last few months because I know our content and contributors are great and I know we can add value to the current stream with the right touch.
While Facebook copies, Twitter's open platform OPENS bazillions of opportunities. Both will be hugely successful, but only Twitter gets my respect and attention.
Early days.

Sorana Cirstea will face her doubles partner Jelena Ostapenko in the quarter-finals of the China Open after claiming the scalp of fourth seed Karolina Pliskova.
The unseeded Cirstea mounted a stirring second-set fightback to defeat the former world number one 6-1 7-5 in Beijing on Thursday, her first win over a top-five opponent for over four years.
World number 44 Cirstea won 69 per cent of points on her first serve and broke three times in each set to seal an unexpected place in the last eight.
Pliskova had four set points in the second set, but Cirstea hung in there and won five games in a row to ensure she will find herself on the opposite side of the net to Ostapenko, who was leading 3-0 in the first set when Peng Shuai retired due to a knee injury.
Petra Kvitova claimed a third consecutive win over Caroline Wozniacki, seeing off the fifth seed 6-1 6-4, while Elina Svitolina dashed Elena Vesnina's hopes of reaching the WTA Finals by beating the Russian 6-2 7-5.
Caroline Garcia continued her outstanding form with a 6-2 6-1 success over Alize Cornet in an all-French affair to keep her hopes of qualifying for the season-ending tournament in Singapore alive and Barbora Strycova thrashed Daria Gavrilova 6-0 6-4.
Cirstea was on the brink of losing the second set when a resurgent Pliskova led 40-0 at 5-2 on serve, but the Romanian said she was not aware of how close she was to being pegged back until after the match.
"My coach told me that I was down 5-2, 40-0 in the second set, and I didn't even realize it," the 27-year-old said. "I was just playing point by point, I was trying not to focus on the score. I was just trying to play the right ball at the right time.
"And I think for me it worked, because I didn't put any pressure on myself. It didn't feel like a comeback because I was not so aware of the score. But it was definitely nice to finish in two sets."
Kvitova has now won seven of her meetings with Wozniacki and has won three straight in only two sets.
The 12th seed's reliable serve laid the foundations for her latest success over the former world number one, who failed to secure a single break.
Kvitova will take on Strycova at the quarter-final stage after peppering Wozniacki with powerful first and second serves, edging the second set after winning six games in a row to take the opener.
Garcia is up to a career-high ranking of 15 after landing the biggest win of her career at the Wuhan Open last weekend.
Svitolina will face Garcia in the quarter-finals after the unseeded Frenchwoman stretched her winning streak to eight matches.
Garcia must reach the semi-finals in order to have any chance of denying Johanna Konta the eighth and final WTA Finals spot. Vesnina will not play in Singapore, as she needed to win the title this week to stay in the hunt.

Why Did the Red Sox Trade Babe Ruth?
The Boston Red Sox traded Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees because the pitcher and outfielder demanded more money than Boston's ownership was willing to pay. On Dec. 26, 1919, the Yankees purchased Ruth's contract for $125,000 and $300,000 in loans. The trade, and subsequent inability to win the World Series for more than 80 years, was known as "The Curse of the Bambino."
Ruth was the most complete player in Major League Baseball at the time he was traded. Not only did he pitch to a 9-5 record, but Ruth also hit a then-record 29 home runs to go along with 114 RBI and a .322 batting average over the course of the 1919 season.
Broadway producer Harry Frazee purchased the Red Sox in 1916. Ruth demanded a salary increase after the 1918 World Series from $7,000 to $10,000 per year. Frazee agreed to a three-year deal, but the contract lasted one. Frazee had other interests aside from the baseball team and decided to trade the superstar.
Boston won three World Series with Ruth on the team, two in which the superstar had a major impact. The Red Sox next won the World Series in 2004, a span of 86 years that Boston fans called "The Curse of the Bambino." The superstition developed over time, as Boston's futility in the postseason was thought to have been caused by Frazee's unwillingness to pay the best player in baseball what he wanted.

Fungal nails refers to any number of fungal nail infections that can occur on the foot. Since fungal nails are usually more resistant and more difficult to treat than Athlete's Foot, topical or oral antifungal medications may be prescribed. Note: Please consult a physician before taking any medications. Permanent nail removal is another possible form of treatment for tenacious fungal nails.
Preventing Fungal Nail Infections
After a fungal nail infection has cleared up, take steps to prevent the infection from recurring. Keeping fungi at bay will help prevent a fungal infection of the skin from reinfecting the nail. Before bed, thoroughly wash and dry your feet, and apply a nonprescription antifungal cream to the entire foot from the ankle down. Use the cream every night, then gradually apply it less often. Keep your feet dry. Dry feet are less likely to become infected. Apply powder to your dry feet after you take a shower or bath.
Other suggestions for preventing fungal nails include:
- Don't share nail clippers or nail files with others.
- Don't share shoes or socks with others.
- Try not to injure your nail, such as by cutting it too short (trauma to the nail may lead to infections).
- Wear dry cotton socks and change them two or three times a day if necessary.
- Wear dry shoes that allow air to circulate around your feet (tight, enclosed, moist shoes contribute to fungal toenail infections).
- Wear shower sandals or shower shoes when you are at a public pool or shower.
Follow basic foot care guidelines and, more than likely, you can head off most common foot fungus problems.

The BS-64 was until recently a missile submarine but has now been redesigned into a scientific one, capable of operating with mini-submarines used for oceanographic research.
Alleged photographs of the Russian BS-64 nuclear-powered submarine equipped with payload cradle were published on the Russian social network VK. While the veracity of the images couldn't be independently verified, the photos were deleted several hours after their publication on social media. According to the maritime news-oriented outlet Covert Shores, the payload cradle looks similar to the one designed for the Project 18270 Bester deep sea rescue vehicle, a Russian development registered in 2016 and allegedly used as a part of the Iceberg arctic seabed research project.
New intelligence: Russia 'Special mission' Submarine BS-64 seen with cradle on back for payload. In this case most likely DSRV submersible.
#GUGI for seabed warfare. Possibly relates toICEBERG project
Bester is a deep sea rescue vehicle which can be used for various purposes, including rescuing submarines crews trapped underwater. The cradle itself is used to ensure safe passage from the Bester to BS-64, even while submerged.
The BS-64 nuclear-powered submarine was decommissioned in 1999 and after years of repairs, it was redesign to hold scientific equipment and serve as a mothership for midget submarines, such as the Paltus or Losharik, which are used for deep oceanographic research.
