RCautilli-shoulder-web7619Next time you go for a walk, grab a pair of light weights and swing your straight arms as you walk. That’s just one way to strengthen your shoulders and keep them healthy. Dr. Richard Cautilli, Chairman of Orthopedics at St. Mary Medical Center also suggests swimming  and gym activities where arms are placed above the head. Around the house, stand far enough back from the coat closet to use straight, extended arms to hang up your coat. When putting the clean dishes back in the cupboard, put the heavy plates on a higher shelf, that will help those shoulders get stronger.

Dr. Cautilli says most shoulder injuries are the result of falls or from overuse by athletes. Rest, ice and take anti-inflammatory medicines for the first few days and you should feel better in about a week. If the pain is severe or the shoulder turns black and blue immediately, see your doctor.  The sooner you seek treatment, the quicker you’ll heal.

He says surgery may be required for frozen shoulder, when it becomes difficult or impossible to move, also for a shoulder that keeps dislocating and for some rotator cuff injuries. After the operation comes the hard part, the physical therapy. He says activities of daily living won’t be enough to get the shoulder back to full strength and hard work with a physical therapist is the only way.

The Game section is everything you need to know about the universe of Phoenix.

As your Nexus account is linked to the game data stored offline, anything you know in-game will be flagged on Nexus. This means that you will be able to see star systems, maps, item data and much more as you discover it in game.

At the start of the game you will only have access to public knowledge data. This though does include quite a lot of information, including maps for common knowledge celestial bodies and systems.

Clicking on the system will take you to the system map.

Hovering over the link between the systems will reveal the jump distance between the systems.

Systems that are paler than the rest are systems that are in adjacent systems but can be reached from this system.

System maps show the moons haloed around their primary.

As you discover asteroid and other hidden phenomena, they will be displayed on the map.

The map also indicates public access markets.

Selecting a world from the system map will display the planetary map. This is the latest data for the map.

Items  [Recruit]

One issue that has proved frustrating in the past is updating items as part of the development of the game. With Nexus, any items that have required updating along with new items are now automatically uploaded. This list will also include all restricted items that you know about in-game.

Selecting an item allows you to look at its stats and even links to the various items that are required for its construction.

Markets  [Recruit]

This allows you to look at the latest markets throughout the Peripheries providing that the owner has made them public. Note though that these might be in regions of space that are hostile to the faction you have joined even if the market is for a neutral faction.

Specific details for the base are also included. It is always best to buy and sell at the same market or at least from markets on the same planet. This allows you to maximise your profits by avoiding an empty cargo hold during trips. If the starbase has a hiport you can trade with it while in orbit. You do not need to land and in many cases landing can result in boarding actions.

Below is just one type of view of the available markets. You can also view the markets by items in order to compare prices.

Ship Editor  [Recruit]

One of the big parts of the game is the design of new ships. Determining how useful the ship will be can be determined through the use of this editor. Selecting hulls, armour and adding items from your known list will be reflected on the stats.

This is not just for design. Once you have have completed your design, you can grant others access to it. These templates can be used in-game for refitting your ships providing that the hulls and armour are the same you can issue the order to refit to template. This will avoid the hassle of individual orders for uninstalling unwanted items and installing new ones.

New pirate threat rocks Corward Arm.

Several large pirate ships have been spotted in outer rings of Corward systems. Reports forwarded to us at the SSS allow us to exclusively tell readers that traders should keep their wits about them when moving through these areas.

No existing pirate menace has yet claimed ownership.

In a possibly unrelated event one of the FET cartel members claimed nothing was happening in the outer ring of Coptov shortly afterwards. But it could be that they are still trying to catch Empire backed pirates and have nothing to do with the new sightings.

DEN continue to shoot innocents

The Dewiek have made themselves busy shooting at the peaceful and innocent traders of the SSL. Leader of Solar Spices and Liquors Mr TOAD has been vocal pointing out that the Beast-DEN are being totally unfair. News of a go-fund-me appeal are yet to surface though.

This office is sure that it must have provided the DEN light relief after picking on the equally defenceless Felini. Word is that the DEN faced such an uphill struggle in these recent actions they had to take up Felini inter-breeding to provide some entertainment as the battle reports were rather boring.

Return of the LiQuans

A close associate of the Baron LiQuan has been haunting the Corewards periphery and like the old Baron it is said he has a meklan connection. It's unclear whether he obtained his meklan nanites via the CIA but there are rumours that the DEN may be helping the Liquan relative in a bid to sow discontent in the Stellar Empire. Exactly why they would start in Corewards is unclear although with DEN allies, the DOM, having strong positions both in the Sol system and the old Harcorp systems of Harlong and Coptuv they may be the linking factor.

Meklan Unleashed on Mobile Bay

Mad Dewiek scientist Dr Kala released a number of Meklan on the busy world of Mobile Bay in the Yank system. Thousands of civilians have been killed in what is treated by DEN warlords as an amusing practical joke. Rather than take any responsibility for their affiliation’s reckless behaviour, a DEN lord rumoured to be half-meklan himself quipped he would nuke the planet whilst another merely saw it as an opportunity to test some of his greener troops in combat. Surprisingly, the KAS planetary defence force was up to the job of repelling the insidious incursion. Questions remain whether further meklan are stored elsewhere on the planet and whether anybody will challenge the Dewiek’s lack of care for the lives of innocents. Probably not, given how even the mighty IMP are now cowering from a fight with the DEN (see inside this edition).

Who is behind the AFA?

Following the large scale holiday attack by the AFA against the FET the question of who is behind the attacks has been raised once again. What is clear is that the AFA is using ships that were transferred from the GTT to the IMP. The organisation and expertise of the operation also reduces the pool of potential candidates. Few can go from commanding a handful of broadswords to half a thousand warships and significant army logistics without a long stint in one of the more combative affiliations. With the DEN’s allies the HEX in close relations with the FET and no recent history of animosity between the aliens and FET, at least since the departure of former one-eye big-bun Norozov, it would be a bizarre turn of events if they were behind these attacks. Frankly, there’s no point dancing around it. The IMP are clearly behind the AFA. The question is what can anybody do about this move of significant Imperial resources to a black-flag agency?

Fox Effects Fantastic Turnaround

With his feet barely under the table, Xavier Fox has managed to dramatically turn things around at the GTT. With year-on-year sales figures up by 23%, manufacturing up 42% and ship production increased by 36%, the megacorporation is running at full steam with noticeable impact on local economies across the Stellar Empire. Political analysts also note that after a period of retrenchment following the disastrous leadership of Ike Krieger, investment in defence is at a five-year high. After such bullish growth, the trick will be for Mr. Fox to recruit C-level executives fast enough to match his ambitions. It is notable in temperament, the current crop of GTT politicals do not exhibit the monomaniacal xenophobia of their predecessors and have resisted repeated provocations by the DEN to enter a pointless spar before they have re-established superiority against the foolhardy aliens.

Felini flounder in Winter against superior Dewiek forces

The FEL have managed to get their asses kicked by the DEN yet again after provoking the definitely “not cute or cuddly” Dewiek in the Crossley system. The furry punching bags had bought a civilian flagged outpost in the system, without permission or under certain conditions depending on who you ask, and then had the gall to reinforce this error by positioning warships in orbit. The famously patient warlord Halvor did not buy the story these heavy hull armed ships were merely transports and sent a pack to clear the orbit. The mouthy yet green Felini fleet commander Pr'prz fancied his chances against what looked like a light complement of DEN warships and ordered his own warships to engage in the neighbouring Winter system. The result was predictably a wipe out of the FEL forces consisting of forty-seven capital warships at no loss to the DEN. Once again, a series of calamitous decision making resulted in Felini lives being wasted by a leadership barely fit to clean a litter tray. The otherwise untested Halvor can now claim some victory ale although with his penchant for picking on creatures as weak as Gracians, it’s not exactly clear how much glory this new breed of Dewiek warrior can claim against the legends of old.

Dastardly Dewiek Disregard Yank Neutrality

The governor of a MRC outpost in the Yank system reports that a 400-hull DEN warship called Grey Hunter Axiom entered orbit of Spritzer and opened fire with weapons of mass destruction (WoMD) against a platform, outpost, ground party and ship. Reports indicate significant casualties to Kastorian personnel both in space and on the ground. The KAS Junta is gruffly warning, with a slightly indifferent air, that everybody better stay out of the sector of the outpost for their own health. It is unclear what measures the KAS have or will take against the DEN on this matter. Such a breach of Yank neutrality has in the past caused the Dewiek to froth at the bit against the Empire for their disregard of ‘civilised’ norms. Their current silence on this matter speaks volumes.

Yenni-bodies Pirates?

A PIR outpost was miraculously discovered by an IMP freighter, of all things, in the Yanni system with several Javelin class warships in orbit. After noticing the IMP freighter and seeing the public post by Jack Jones on subspace, the PIR decided to flee and leave a combined force of IMP and FET forces to capture the outpost. A brain damaged three-year old commentator who still believed in the goodness of people and Santa Claus was quick to commend the IMP on their good work, dismissing those who thought it no more than a convenient clearing up operation signifying* completion of operations in the nearby FET claimed systems of Graydown, Canth and Onissian by IMP puppet Edward Lowe. Meanwhile, the Wolf Lord Lyceum summed up the view of many when he screamed, “What is this amateur b*llshit?” into an uncaring universe.

Persistent Browser-Based Game (PBBG)

I’ve played on and off for approximately 10 years, over a 20 year spell. After some interesting debate on the in-game forum, I did wonder what, exactly, has kept drawing me back to the game, when for so many others I’ve generally lost interest after a few months.

Ultimately, I think it is a combination of automation (that allows the game to handle thousands of positions to interact on a daily basis) coupled with Special Actions (that allow the story arc to develop in a way that could not be catered for by a set of predefined list of available orders).

Last remaining glaciers in the Pacific will soon melt away

Last remaining glaciers in the Pacific will soon melt away

The last remaining tropical glaciers between the Himalayas and the Andes will disappear in the next decade—and possibly sooner—due to climate change, a new study has found.

The in Papua, Indonesia, are "the canaries in the coal mine" for other mountaintop glaciers around the world, said Lonnie Thompson, one of the senior authors of the study published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

"These will be the first to disappear; the others will certainly follow," said Thompson, distinguished university professor in the School of Earth Sciences and senior research scientist at the Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center at The Ohio State University.

The glaciers, atop a mountain near Puncak Jaya, on the western half of the island of New Guinea, have been melting for years, Thompson said. But that melt increased rapidly due in part to a strong 2015-2016 El Niño, a phenomenon that causes tropical ocean water and atmospheric temperatures to get warmer. El Niños are natural phenomena, but their effects have been amplified by global warming.

The study suggests that the glacier will disappear in the next 10 years, most likely during the next strong El Niño.

Thompson said it is likely that other , such as those on Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and Quelccaya in Peru, will follow.

"I think the Papua, Indonesia, glaciers are the indicator of what's going to happen around the world," Thompson said.

Thompson and his team have been monitoring the glacier since 2010, when they drilled ice cores to determine the composition and temperature of the atmosphere around the glacier throughout history. Even then, the glacier was shrinking. That melt started at least 150 years ago, Thompson said, but has quickened in the last decade. The researchers found signs of melting at both the top of the glacier and at the bottom.

During the 2010 drilling expedition, the team installed a string of PVC pipe sections, connected by a rope, into the ice. Their idea was to measure how much ice had been lost by periodically measuring the rope sections left uncovered as the ice melted.

When the stake was measured in November 2015, about five meters of rope had been uncovered, meaning that the glacier surface was melting at a rate of about one meter per year. A team went back in May 2016, and saw that an additional approximately 4.26 meters of rope had been uncovered—a rapid increase in melting over just six months.

The team also measured the extent of the glacier's melt by measuring its surface area, which shrank by about 75 percent from 2010 to 2018. The ice field had shrunk so much that by 2016 it had split into two smaller glaciers. Then, in August 2019, a mountain climber scaling the peak took a photo of the glacier, showing its near disappearance.

"The glacier's melt rate is exponentially increasing," Thompson said. "It's similar to visiting a terminal cancer patient, and documenting the change in their body, but not being able to do anything about it."

Globally, glacier melt is a major contributor to sea level rise, which, along with warming ocean waters, can lead to more frequent and more intense storms.

Thompson said the mountaintop glaciers around the world contribute between a third and a half of the annual sea level rise in the Earth's oceans.

"They are much more vulnerable to the rising temperatures because they're small and they're warmer—they're closer to the melting threshold," he said. "Ice is just a threshold system. It is perfectly happy at freezing temperatures or below, but everything changes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Climate change has increased the temperature of the atmosphere, which means the air around the glacier is warmer. But it has also changed the altitude at which rain turns to snow. That means that where snow once fell on top of the glacier, helping rebuild its ice year-by-year, rain is now falling. That rainfall is the kiss of death for a glacier.

Water absorbs more energy—more heat—from the sun than snow does, so increasing the water on top of the glacier warms the glacier even more, accelerating the melting of the remaining ice.

"If you want to kill a glacier, just put water on it," Thompson said. "The water basically becomes like a hot water drill. It goes right through the ice to the bedrock. So, when water starts to accumulate on top of the glacier, the glacier starts to melt much faster than current models predict as the models are driven by temperature changes but don't account for the effect of water accumulating on the glacier surface."

Once water starts streaming through crevasses in the glacier to the bedrock, it also begins to lubricate the glacier along its bottom. This eventually creates a warm pool beneath the glacier, which may cause the glacier to slide, ever-so-slowly, down the mountain to lower elevations where temperatures are warmer.

Such was the case with this glacier, the researchers learned when they first drilled in 2010. The cores they brought to the surface showed meltwater at the base of the glacier as well as at the top.

That melt can affect the information scientists are able to learn from the cores, which normally provide year-by-year data records of the climate around the glacier. As the glacier melts, those year-by-year records can become blurred. In this case, however, the cores still showed evidence of El Niño events throughout the ice cores' history. Because so much of the glacier has melted, the cores hold data for only the last 50 years, despite the fact that these glaciers have likely occupied these mountaintops for the last 5,000 or so years.

The glacier's disappearance is a cultural loss, too, Thompson said: The who live around the mountain worship it.

"The ridges and the valleys are the arms and legs of their god, and the glacier is the head," he said.

When the team drilled in 2010, some of the elders of the indigenous communities protested: "In their words, they thought we were 'drilling into the skull of their god to steal the god's memories,'" Thompson said. "I told them that was exactly what we were doing. We needed to preserve those memories because the glacier was going to melt."

That started a debate throughout the indigenous community, weighing whether the team should be allowed to continue its research mission to learn the history contained within the ice, or was it more important that the glacier remain undisturbed? Thompson said the elders of the community were strongly in favor of kicking the research team out while the younger people, he said, wanted the mission to continue. In this case, the won.

"It was the young people who were saying, 'Have you not seen what's happening?'" Thompson said.

Curricular Resources

Award-Winning University Physics Curriculum to Meet New AP Physics Demands

New learning goals for the AP Physics Exams will be fully implemented by 2020, putting a stronger emphasis on conceptual understanding and scientific reasoning practices. IPaSS fills a critical need at a critical time, as physics teachers seek more instructional resources and support to adapt to the new instructional demands put upon them by this curricular change. These demands include greater focus on conceptual learning and inquiry-based lab practices; the very things the Physics Education Research (PER) group at U of I has been focused on during the redesign of its own undergraduate courses.

The IPaSS curricular materials available to our high school partners include adapted versions of key components of the U of I undergraduate physics curriculum:

  • a web-based "flipped" platform, smartPhysics, that contains online pre-lectures, pre-labs and homework
  • group problem-solving activities
  • design-based lab activities targeting scientific skill development, using iOLabs
  • assessments

The iOLab

These lab activities utilize the iOLab wireless lab system, invented by U of I Physics Professors Mats Selen and Tim Stelzer. The iOLab is a compact device that contains all sensors necessary for hundreds of physics labs, and a wireless interface that supports quick data collection and analysis.

Due to its ease of use and diverse functionality, the iOLab promotes student freedom to design their own experiments to engage with more open lab-prompts. The IPaSS partnership gives teachers supported access to these devices at no cost to the school for the duration of teachers’ engagement with the program.

Award-Winning Curriculum

The original curriculum described here, from which all IPaSS course materials are adapted, won the APS 2012 Award for Improving Undergraduate Physics Education. Although the IPaSS curriculum in its original format is intended for advanced high school physics students, it can easily be adapted for students who have little to no prior exposure to physics, or otherwise require more support.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Multnomah County Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Lawyers

What is a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?

Chapter 7 bankruptcy – also known as a dissolution bankruptcy – is the simplest and most common form of consumer bankruptcy. In a typical Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you (the debtor) can keep most, if not all, of your possessions, including a house and a car. Normally, you receive a discharge of all qualifying debt within 90-120 days of the date the Chapter 7 case is filed.

Eligibility to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy is based on your average monthly income and expenses. If your income is less than or equal to the average income for your state, then you will be eligible to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If your income is higher than the average, then a “means test” calculation is performed to determine whether you are eligible for relief under Chapter 7. In many cases, even if your income exceeds the average by a good deal, you may still qualify for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

The means test calculation takes into account your income and IRS-allowable expenses to determine whether you can file under Chapter 7 even though your income exceeds the median level. This calculation uses IRS standards but also allows for some, if not all, of your own actual expenses.

The bankruptcy attorneys at Owens / Pinzelik, P.C. have special tools to help determine whether you qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy relief. Let our professionals help you today by calling 503.224.3100 or contact us online.

Polish Hill’s Abstract Art Walks

graffiti cover-up, Pittsburgh, PA

Bethoven Street

If Don and Phil Everly are to be believed, a man in Kentucky sure is lucky to lie down in Bowling Green. Well, you can bet your dupa that man, woman, and child sure are lucky to wake up in Polish Hill–its spectacular vistas, its legendary city steps, its cattywumpus streets clinging to the hillside. To this list, you can add one more bonus. The residents of Melwood, Herron, and Brereton get the year-round, open-air, free-admission modern art walks of Bethoven and Finland Streets.

Finland Street

The works are created and maintained as a joint effort between some number of indefatigable spray paint-weilding taggers and what we imagine is a combination of city D.P.W. “graffiti busters” and concerned citizens taking matters into their own hands. This cat-and-mouse adversarial partnership ensures that every season the palette will shift, the structure will renew, and the layers will be reborn yet again.

Bethoven Street

The quirkiest thing about these artists is exactly what makes the whole thing work. A graffiti cover-up team could easily just invest in bulk orders of battleship gray exterior primer. End of story. That’s what it’s like along the jail trail, down in “The Run,” and a bunch of other places*. One clean sweep every spring. If so, there’d be one less blogger loitering at the top of the hill.

Bethoven Street

But it ain’t like that in Polish Hill. Instead, the clean-up crews (whoever they are) seem to use whatever extra paint they just happen to have laying around. I don’t see any green or black in these photos, but just about every other color in the spectrum is represented. The way these layers peel, flake, and erode suggests they may just be using leftover house paint, rather than some heavy-duty, element thwarting, highway-grade pigment.

Further, the painters use an irregular approach to the graffiti cover. Sometimes roughly squaring off big fields, others targeting individual spots just as needed. The effect is to give the abstraction a loose (if undefined) composition that wouldn’t have been there without the smaller details.

Maybe you have to mentally crop the big retaining wall-sized sections down into more digestible chunks, let the eye focus go a little soft, relax a little bit for it to make sense. But you really don’t have to stretch too far to imagine these pieces sitting side-by-side the great abstract expressionists. I imagine a Hans Hofmann or a Franz Kline or a Mark Rothko being quite pleased to share wall space along Bethoven Street.

* In fairness, the city uses a few different shades of white and gray and some of the results are still interesting…but they’re not like these.

    This is a great thing you have done. It’s STILL ART. I always find it interesting when anti-graffiti efforts leave a much uglier result. It’s not the graffiti they hate, it’s more like they despise meaning itself. They don’t like being reminded meaning exists, almost. They are trying to eliminate thought. Which is a somewhat noble goal, I guess.

    As an art project, has anyone ever left actual blank canvases out, affixed to something solid in the hope that someone will come along and paint a painting on them?

    • Will says:

      The blank canvases idea would have some tricky practical issues, but it’s interesting. Your various graffiti-doers would probably suggest that wall-sized and wall-shaped blank canvases already exist all over the place!

      The “Street Pianos” project (http://www.streetpianos.com/) is essentially this idea with old junker pianos–just paint them funny colors and leave them out in public places and let people bang on them. I saw one in New York last month (no one was playing it). They’d probably fare a lot better in western dry climates. I imagine an outdoor piano lasting about two months in Pittsburgh precipitation/humidity/temperature swings.

Failing Media! SAD! The Fourth Estate, Six Feet Under

former offices of The Daily News, now with boarded up, downtown McKeesport, PA

The Daily News, McKeesport (1884-2015)

Walk by the old Post-Gazette building, on the very last block before Boulevard of the Allies terminates at Point State Park, and you’ll likely be the only one on the sidewalk. It’s a surprisingly desolate section of our otherwise healthy and lively downtown. Boxed-in by highways and a complete lack of any retail nearby, this hulking, ugly building sits alone and empty at one corner of downtown.

At street level, there are giant windows that used to look straight into the busy printing floor of the newspaper. Here, for more than 50 years at this location, you could stand on the sidewalk, peer straight in, and watch the incredible synchronicity of massive printing presses spinning at full speed, cranking out the daily news. It was quite an operation.

You can still peer through those big windows, but you won’t see any equipment filling the space today. That’s all been removed–sold off, presumably–with the Post-Gazette‘s upgrade to a brand new suburban printing facility a few years back. The subsequent relocation of the news office to the near North Side followed. On the bright side, the P-G‘s current crew of journalists, editors, and the like need only head downstairs for a fill-up on No Joke Mac ‘N Cheese or a flight of shooters at Tequila Cowboy.

The News-Tribune, Beaver Falls (1928-1979)

If you’re on Boulevard, grab a gander while you still can. What’s left is a fascinating view into a work space once pumping with activity. Floor mounts for all the heavy machinery are still intact; blank walls are scarred with the gouges and pockmarks of a half-century’s hard physical abuse. One visible section of below-street-level wall still contains taped-up news clippings, notes, employee graffiti, and torn photos of women in bikinis. All surfaces appear blackened with a spray of printing ink that one imagines hung in the air like thick fog.

The Burgettstown Enterprise (1878-1999)

For now (at least), the Post-Gazette is still very much alive–although it continues to try to figure out how many days a week it can actually afford to print and deliver a paper.

The same cannot be said for many of the region’s old news sources. Head out of town in any direction and each Main Street will almost invariably offer up the spent carcass of a former local newspaper.

The Pittsburg (sic.) Times, 1880-1906

Jeannette Dispatch (1889-1918) [2]

With banks being the notable exception, newspaper offices erected a century-or-so ago seem uniquely confident in their place in society among private businesses[3]. A huge number of papers have the original masthead built right into the brick and granite framework of their headquarters buildings.

You can’t always tell from these photos, but trust that it was the engraved crowns on the Jeannette Dispatch (above) and Leader-Times (below) that gave them away; no pre-research was necessary to find them–we just looked up and read the rooflines.

Simpsons’ Daily Leader-Times, Kittanning (1921-1961)

The Duquesne Times (1918-1960)

For this piece, we decided to only include photos of newspaper buildings where the passer-by can still read the original mission of its previous host. If we were to do all the forensics on every old paper in the region … well, we’d never get back to weird pizza and sad toys.

That said, the great all-things-Beaver County blog Ambridge Memories has a terrific post on the various former locations of the Daily Citizen. They’ve done an amazing job of tracking and showing then-and-now pictures of the five different Ambridge buildings the Citizen occupied during its 55-year run (1904-1959). None of the current photos give any hint to their past life in media.

Valley Journal/The Green Sheet, Millvale (1941-2019)

The latest casualty! Yes, even The Green Sheet (aka “Ye Olde Green Sheet”) has fallen victim to cheap/free Internet classifieds announcing their closure over the summer. No longer will you see the once-ubiquitous piles of pale green newsprint stacked by the door at Shur-Save, Kuhn’s, and Shop’n’Save. If you want to swap cemetery plots or trade for guns, that business will have to be conducted elsewhere.

former office of Butler Eagle newspaper, Butler, PA

Butler Eagle (1903-present)

Rest assured, the Butler Eagle is still publishing–but they’ve moved their news office to a more modern, large scale printing operation on the edge of town. That consolidation has vacated the c. 1924 art deco-lite building, just off Main Street, where you’ll now find the unique property listed for sale. For our purposes, we think that counts too.

former office of The Valley Indpendent newspaper, Monessen, PA

The Valley Independent, Monessen (1926-2015) [4]

[1] As the name implies, the Post-Gazette was created by a merger of two much older newspapers, The Pittsburgh Gazette (first published 1786) and The Pittsburgh Post (neé Daily Morning Post) (first published 1842). The papers were merged in 1927 and moved into the building on Boulevard of the Allies in 1962.
[2] The Dispatch merged with another local paper in 1918, forming The Jeannette News-Dispatch, which continued publishing through 1981. Sometime in there, the office moved around the corner to Fourth St. We didn’t get a picture so we’re not sure if there is still a visible marker of it’s life as a news office.
[3] It is extremely common to see government buildings, schools, libraries, etc. with this kind of confidence in its future, but much less so with businesses.
[4] The Valley Independent has stopped printing, but lives on in the Mon Valley Independent.

    Great post, Wills. This is such a sad state of affairs, and I for one can’t wait for another weird pizza or sad toy post!

  2. Bob Nassikas says:

    I remember an old (’30’s) movie house film feature (I believe a monthly) the title of which was “TIME, MARCHES ON!” A rather appropriate title for this sad item…(There once was a thriving business over a century ago—the buggy whip manufacturing industry..).

  3. Joe Napsha says:

    Great research. The Mon Valley Independent still is published as a paper.
    I worked at the Beaver Falls News Tribune when it closed in April 1979.
    Also., the Waynesburg Democrat Messenger was bought by the Observer Reporter in the mid 1980s.

  4. N Pulsifer says:

    Yes, yet another area where I wish time, selected parts of it anyway, could march backward, to things like street cars, and pre-WWII architecture (sans rapacious developers and complicit politicians), and police on horseback. My favorite is your photo of the Leader-Times—finely evocative with the looming thunderstorm.
    Thanks again and here’s hoping you make money on this. If not (and I guess even if so), thanks for sharing your quirky and enlightening hobby.

The Nintendo 3DS is Living Its Best Year in 2017

Posted by | September 21, 2017 | Feature | No Comments

All eyes are on the Nintendo Switch this year, as well they should be. Nintendo has been in a weird place with home consoles over the last decade. The Wii exploded onto the scene as a gimmicky toy, then quickly collected dust in everyone’s closest. The Wii U failed to capture an audience at all, reaching only 10% of the sales of its predecessor. Launching earlier this year, the Switch is faring much better, including a killer app like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and featuring full portability.

It’s the portability that had me worried about my favorite Nintendo product of this century: the Nintendo 3DS. With the announcement and launch of the Switch, I had concerns over how Nintendo’s handheld-only console would fare when stacked up with a device that could do both.

Turns out my concerns were completely unfounded. The six-year old Nintendo 3DS is having its best year ever in 2017.

From the hardware side, this year saw the release of the New Nintendo 2DS XL. While the New Nintendo 3DS XL has failed to garner much of an audience thanks to a lack of Circle pad-requiring games, the New Nintendo 2DS XL should fare much better.

The New Nintendo 2DS XL is the exact same device as the 3DS XL (circle pad and everything) minus the 3D feature, for a much cheaper price. It’s an even better buy-in for parents and kids where the 3D effect isn’t nearly as desired (or even unwanted for younger kids) as just getting access to the amazing library of kid-friendly Nintendo 3DS games.

Over its prolific life cycle the 3DS has been home to all the biggest Nintendo series, including Zelda, Mario, Super Smash Bros, Pokémon, Fire Emblem, Monster Hunter, and Dragon Quest.

Need another reason why the 3DS is having an amazing year? I’ve got 19.

Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King

A remake of one of the best Japanese RPGs of the PlayStation 2 era, Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King is a must play for anyone who loves and appreciates old-school 90’s-style RPGs. The original game was noteworthy for featuring a fully 3D world to explore, which translates perfectly to the 3DS.

Release: January 20, 2017

Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World

With the abysmal sales of the Wii U I’ll forgive you if you missed Poochy’s Woolly World last year. That’s all the more reason to play the 3DS version of this whimsical platformer. With a fun variety of levels, unique yarn art style, and plenty of secrets and unlockables, it’s one of the best 2D platformers I’ve played in years.

Release: February 3, 2017

Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns

Farming sim Stardew Valley was all the rage last year. If you like that style the 3DS has plenty of sim-life and farming sim games to tackle. Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns features the same basic but fun routines of tending to farm life while exploring different towns and people.

Release: February 28, 2017

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia gives Western audiences their first introduction to 1991’s Fire Emblem Gaiden. Thank the Nintendo 3DS for popularizing the Fire Emblem series, from Awakening to Conquest and Birthright. Echoes offers unique gameplay features for the series, including dungeon crawling and dual protagonists. Read our review.

Release: May 19, 2017

Ever Oasis

The 3DS tends to play it safe with big franchise installments, but Ever Oasis is a completely new title. It combines Zelda-style exploration and combat with Animal Crossing-esque town management, as you build up your burgeoning oasis and recruit allies to run stalls and delve into dungeons. Read our review.

Release: June 23, 2017

Hey! Pikmin

Hey! Pikmin is a 2D spin-off that represents a significant departure from the main Pikmin series. This time around Captain Olimar using found Pikmin to solve puzzles. It seems particularly suited to younger children, and is noteworthy for supporting all amiibo figures with various in-game bonuses.

Release: July 28, 2017

Do you love those Streetpass mini-games where a bunch of Miis race cars or fish or battle zombies? Miitopia is a full-scale RPG featuring everyone’s Mii avatars. It’s as goofy and fun as you imagine, utilizing a lot of fun design elements from The Sims with a a classic party-based RPG.

Release: July 28, 2017

Monster Hunter Stories

This new spin-off combines all the best elements of Monster Hunter with Pokémon to create a surprisingly special experience. The Monster Hunter series can be especially daunting, but Monster Hunter Stories represents a successful kid-friendly version that retains much of the depth of the classic action series. Read our review.

Release: September 8, 2017

Minecraft: New Nintendo 3DS Edition

Minecraft is the only title here that requires the New Nintendo 3DS (or recently released 2DS). Minecraft was available on just about every platform in modern existence, and the 3DS wasn’t about to be left out. The 3DS version comes with five addtional skin packs and two texture packs.

Release: September 13, 2017

Metroid: Samus Returns

The first new 2D Metroid title in over a decade is cause for much rejoicing. It’s actually a remake of the 1991 Game Boy title Metroid II: Return of Samus. The entire game has been rebuilt with new modern visuals, dual-screen interface, and much-welcomed gameplay enhancements to combat and movement. More Metroid games please!

Release: September 15, 2017

Pokémon Gold and Silver

Pokémon Gold and Silver isn’t a remake or even an enhancement, it’s just the original games, coming to 3DS. Why is that noteworthy? For one, Gold and Silver (Gen 2) are still considered the best generation of Pokémon games, and favorites of many a long-time fan. Second it makes transferring Pokémon from these games into other 3DS games, such as Sun and Moon, much easier.

Release: September 22, 2017

Yo-Kai Watch 2: Psychic Specters

Yo-Kai Watch may be a shameless modern Pokémon clone, but they’re also legitimately fun games in their own right. Psychic Specters is the definitive third version of last year’s Fleshy Souls and Bony Spirits. Aside from the better name it features new locations, new quests, expanded co-op, and more Yo-Kai to befriend.

Release: September 29, 2017

Culdcept Revolt

Culdcept has been around for years but mostly flown under the radar for Western audiences. Culdcept Revolt is the first title to reach the West since 2008’s Culdcept Saga. The series is a unique combination of strategy card and board games featuring over 400 different cards.

Release: October 3, 2017

Layton’s Mystery Journey

The Professor Layton series has been captivating puzzle game fans for years on Nintendo DS and 3DS. Layon’s Mystery Journey stars the Professor’s young daughter, Katrielle, now her own private detective, as she investigates the disappearance of her famous father. It’s the first Professor Layon title since 2013.

Release: October 6, 2017

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions

Yet another remake of a classic game, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga updates the visuals of the 2003 Game Boy Advance RPG and combines it with an all-new storyline called Minion Quest. The original Superstar Saga is one of the best GBA games, and the series is beloved by Nintendo handheld fans.

Release: October 6, 2017

Etrian Odyssey V: Beyond the Myth

With an old-school RPG flair that tasks you with mapping out dungeons, the Etrian Odyssey series is not for the faint of heart. Etrian Odyssey V: Beyond the Myth is the second deep RPG in the series to grace the Nintendo 3DS. You can download a demo on the Nintendo eShop.

Release: October 17, 2017

Fire Emblem Warriors

We last saw a Dynasty Warriors – Nintendo crossover with Hyrule Warriors in 2014, and it reached the 3DS last year. This year both the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch will see the launch of Fire Emblem Warriors, featuring the large-scale action battles of Dynasty Warriors with the familiar anime characters of Fire Emblem.

Release: October 20, 2017

Mario Party: The Top 100

Mario Party: The Top 100 was just announced last week during the Nintendo Direct. It’s a compilation of the best 100 mini-games from all 10 Mario Party games. Let’s skip the laughably unbalanced and random board game portion and jump right into what we loved – goofy, quick, and fun mini-games starring our favorite Mario characters.

Release: November 10, 2017

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon

You can’t declare a great Nintendo handheld year without a main Pokémon title to back it up. Unlike 2013’s Pokémon X and Y, last year’s Sun and Moon is getting a definitive third edition this year, featuring new Pokémon, new areas in the Alola region, and a new storyline.

Release: November 17, 2017

History Made: Trump Will Be the First President to Speak at the March for Life

On Wednesday, the March for Life announced that President Donald Trump will be the first sitting president in history to address the pro-life rally in person. The march will take place this Friday, January 24, in Washington, D.C.

"We are deeply honored to welcome President Trump to the 47th annual March for Life. He will be the first president in history to attend and we are so excited for him to experience in person how passionate our marchers are about life and protecting the unborn," Jeanne Mancini, president of the March for Life, said in a statement on Wednesday.

"From the appointment of pro-life judges and federal workers, to cutting taxpayer funding for abortions here and abroad, to calling for an end to late-term abortions, President Trump and his Administration have been consistent champions for life and their support for the March for Life has been unwavering. We are grateful for all these pro-life accomplishments and look forward to gaining more victories for life in the future," she added.

Hundreds of thousands of men and women march from the National Mall to the Supreme Court building every year, protesting Roe v. Wade (1973), the decision that legalized abortion nationwide.

While most Americans identify as "pro-choice" — 55 percent, according to a Knights of Columbus/Marist poll released Wednesday — most also support restrictions on abortion.

Only 21 percent of Americans said abortion should be "available to a woman any time during the entire pregnancy," while another 9 percent said abortion should be available "only during the first six months of pregnancy." A vast majority of Americans (70 percent) said abortion should be restricted to the first three months of pregnancy (24 percent); cases of rape, incest or a threat to the life of the mother (26 percent); only cases involving a threat to the mother's life (11 percent); or never in any circumstance (9 percent).

Almost half of those who identified as pro-choice (47 percent) supported these restrictions on abortion. Many said they would restrict abortion to the first three months (35 percent) or the cases of rape, incest, or a threat to the mother's life (10 percent). Only 36 percent of those who identified as "pro-choice" said they support allowing abortion any time during a woman's pregnancy.

While Trump supports the March for Life and will become the first president to attend in person, 2020 Democrats celebrated Roe v. Wade on its 47th anniversary and would force taxpayers to foot the bill for abortion.

ArtLab Graduates: Keeping the Momentum Going

This last summer our senior ArtLab interns graduated from high school and moved on to college this fall. Let’s look at three of these graduates; their challenges, their voices, and their success:

Leilani Abeyta – Leilani graduated from ArtLab as one of our first youth representatives on PlatteForum’s board of directors. She was the first generation of her family to graduate high school and to attend college. She is now at the Maryland Institute College of Art, Class of 2022, as a full-ride scholarship recipient.

For Leilani, the ArtLab experience was an eye-opening, revelatory growth experience. As she puts it, “ArtLab helped me to take myself seriously as a person and as an artist and helped me uncover the initiative to bring everything I have into my art and into everything I do.” As with all graduations, feelings of accomplishment and expectation are mingled with nostalgia for the time spent with mentors and peers. Leilani treasures the time spent with people she grew to know and love; the demands, the achievements and most of all, the laughter that comes with true camaraderie.

Leilani graduated from ArtLab with two major takeaways; the ability to visualize a future as a professional artist and the power of social activism – at any age. As Leilani observed, “I hope our generation takes itself seriously and is committed to inspiring others to create change.”

Jameelah Mims – Jameelah graduated from high school at the Denver School of Science and Technology; Cole to attend the Community College of Denver, Class of 2022. This might seem like a typical high-school-to-college trajectory, but her story is anything but typical. Surviving a period of homelessness, her family facing ongoing economic struggles and dealing with a learning disability were all part of Jameelah’s road to ArtLab and beyond.

As Jameelah puts it, the freedom of expression and connection to her community afforded by ArtLab were important factors in overcoming these obstacles. “ArtLab provided me with the support I needed to express my feelings through art and have conversations about our lives, politics and everything in between.”

Part of the support Jameelah found was the courage and self-awareness needed to thrive despite her learning disability. As Jameelah expressed it, “I was insecure about my learning disability, but I realized I’m still human and I can be more compassionate with myself. Accepting my learning disability as part of my identity has been important to me.” Jameelah’s struggle and triumph over these trying situations culminated in her being awarded the Mayor’s Youth Award 2018, a program designed to recognize young Denverites who have overcome adversity.

Rogelio Muñoz-Vargas – Rogelio also served on our board of directors as a one of our first youth representatives and graduated from the Denver School of Science and Technology; Cole and now is attending Metropolitan State University, Class of 2022. His background as a Dreamer has spurred activism in the areas of LGBTQ+ rights and DACA. For his senior project at DSST: Cole, Rogelio created a clothing campaign to raise awareness around DACA, the profits from which were donated to United We Dream, the largest immigrant youth-led community in the country fighting for the DREAM Act.

Rogelio credits ArtLab with providing a supportive environment for his art and for his commitment to social change. “I’m going to miss the sense of community that we created together. I will miss being a part of a group that is very aware of what is going on in the world and is creating art about those issues. I don’t know any other place like ArtLab.”

In the face of the challenges that he and his Dreamer peers face in today’s political climate, Rogelio credits his commitment to honesty, his expectations for his generation and his willingness to stand fast in the face of adversity as contributing factors in the success and self-realization he has achieved to date.

Journey - Goos

Host of Journey Bookings: Promos: In a very short span of time, Goos has risen to remarkable prominence as a promising artist. With a combination of steady, yet very well received gigs, Goos brings a distinctive energy to the floor. His sound ranges from intricate melodies to chunky basslines, often inspired by earthy tones from around the world. Goos was born in Doha, Qatar to musically inclined parents who introduced him to rock music at a very young age. This early onset of music led to a gamut of musical influences in his life ranging from Led Zeppelin, The Doors and Pink Floyd. His deep-seated love for percussion instruments led Goos on a pursuit to learn the Mridangam. This subsequently enabled him to also take up drumming, giving him a well-rounded understanding of percussion. Goos discovered his passion for dance music through the unique sounds of Eric Prydz and Roger Sanchez. Goos hosted his own showcase at the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) in 2018 titled Journey on Tour presenting artists from around the world. Goos has played alongside international artists such as Lane 8, Yotto, Ben Bohmer, Dee Montero, Tinlicker, Kora, Denis Horvat, Theo Kottis, Eelke Kleijn, Sebastien Leger, Joseph Ashworth, Roger Martinez, Dousk, Julian Jeweil, Olivier Giacomotto, Roger Sanchez, Kid Crème, Funkagenda to name a few. Goos has also played at the Satellite Beachside festival in Goa, Go:Madras in Chennai alongside many local acts apart from artists from the Anjunadeep roster.He has also played alongside Indian heavy weights like Arjun Vagale, Tuhin Mehta, Nikhil Chinapa, Rohit Barker, BrownCoat and more. Goos was picked as one of ten rising DJ’s worldwide by Pioneer DJ for their Kuvo service. This was heard and reviewed by Daisuke Ito, a long time contributor to club and culture publications including Resident Advisor. Goos’ sets have been featured on Deeper Sounds (Cafe Mambo Ibiza), Sonne, Strand und Meer, The Deep Room Everything will be OK (UK), and 50:Hertz radio aired in Netherlands and US. His fortnightly podcast ‘Journey’ showcases the full range of sounds of this versatile artist apart from a rotating roster of guests.

RovM senses nutritional cues.

2015-09-08T03:16:18Z (GMT) by Viveka Vadyvaloo Angela K. Hinz

Growth of WT (pACYC177) (●), ΔrovM (pACYC177) mutant (■) and ΔrovM (pACrovM) complemented mutant (♦) strains in Sebbane minimal medium (SMM) supplemented with 0.2% (A) glucose (dark grey), galactose (light grey), or diacteylchitobiose (black) as additional carbon sources or, (B) amino acids, glutamine (light grey), arginine (dark grey) and histidine (black). Error bars indicate the mean±SD of three independent experiments. To calculate the growth rate linear regression analysis was performed on the exponential phase time points of growth between 18–32 hours for (A) and 16–32 hours for (B). The ΔrovM (pACrovM) complemented strain grew at a significantly higher growth rate (*, P<0.001) in SMM supplemented with diacetylchitobiose, glutamine and arginine compared to the ΔrovM mutant and wild type strains. WT = wild type.

FAA to Propose New Rules for Commercial Drone Use - The UpStream

FAA to Propose New Rules for Commercial Drone Use

posted Sunday Nov 30, 2014 by Nicholas DiMeo

FAA to Propose New Rules for Commercial Drone Use

Drones are a new and scary thing, at least for the government. It's such a feared technology that the FAA is going to put the kibosh on any plans for online retailers to have same-hour drone delivery in the future.

New federal laws are expected to be passed to restrict the operation of a commercial drone. While nothing is actually official yet, several people who are tied in with the committee for these rules have given out some information on what those rules might be. For starters, operators of these drones will have to have a license to pilot manned aircraft. Flights will be limited to daytime hours only, you must keep the aircraft below 400 feet and, here's the kicker, the drone must remain within the sight of the operator. I'd be curious to know if being able to see the drone through an Internet-based camera would suffice as being within sight of the operator.

Sources also said that identifying the type of aircraft would be key to restricting which drones fall into which categories. For instance, the FAA is rumored to group every drone under 55 pounds into one category and one set of guidelines. This would put the super-tiny drones under 3 pounds in with the bigger guys.

Of course, privacy concerns and other hang-ups are the topic of discussion when it comes to these devices, however many argue that the rules could be too restrictive and yet again step on the innovation in this space. Add to that the requirement that one must have a license in manned aircraft and it severely limits who can operate these devices. Again, these rules would be for commercial drones only, but they could also be used as a stepping stone to more restrictions on personal use of the same aircraft.

It is being said that the FAA should be a proposal by the end of the year and a public period for comments and concerns would follow that, similar to what we saw with Net Neutrality.

Emergency Plumber & Drainage
Expert in Glasgow

Famous for its school and a highly desirable location in the west end of Glasgow, Jordanhill, has a large percentage of the homes in the area being terraced housing from the mid 20th century. While they are lovely houses, they are still old and that can mean a whole host of plumbing and heating problems.

If you are sick of having to deal with leaking taps, toilets that wont flush, cracked flooding pipes and blocked drain then you need the JSL team to visit (remember we do not have a call out charge) and put things right.

The same goes for central heating systems. Your house may be running an old boiler heating system that is not efficient, takes an age to heat the house, costs a fortune and is constantly breaking down. Maybe its time you called JSL Heating Services to enquire about getting a new boiler heating system installed to your home to keep you toasty in the winter. Our full heating systems may be right up your street. And of course we also offer servcies such as radiator leak fix and boiler servicing to make sure your home is running at optimum.

Do you live in Jordanhill and are looking for a quotation for a new boiler, boiler repairs, plumbing leaks, blocked drains or more?
Then simply get in touch today - remember we do NOT charge to come and visit you.

Jordanhill Plumbing Case Study:

An under stairs shower room that had been installed without proper planning consent and therefore lacked proper ventilation was creating a build up of mould thanks the the condensation from the shower. We were called out and have added a ventilation system that makes the room compliant but also removes the damp problem in the shower room.

The scope of the International Architectural Competition for an art center, in Guangzhou, China, looks for the revitalisation and reuse of a silo in the former packaging (canning) factory complex of Redtory.
Attending the competition requirements, we concentrate on two main issues. The complexities of the identity of a creative art equipment, whth a cultural venue on one side, and a strategy for its urban settlement and exterior adjacent areas.
The architectural character of the new building is a blend of the diverse cultural, artistic scopes and the metaphoric presence of the existing structure of the silo. the city of Guangzhou and the view of the river. The established connections of architectonic character are not static, but rather dynamic. We pretend an open, flexible and mutant relation that can be shaped by the use and life of the equipmente.

Competition: Revivel of the Silo
Architecture: Pedro Mendes, Tiago Marcelino Cruz

Where Do We Go From Here?

Where do we go from here?

I know we was dealt with some difficult cards in life
But we just cant stop there.
God has a bigger plan for us, I can feel it……I know its near.

What I have learned during this tough time and tribulation
That everything happens for a reason
Everyone goes through a tough time,
Just so happen this is our season
There is no devine reason.

He is our God Almighty
He will see us to the end
And only on him you shall depend on
Because he will take you through,
Stay faithful to him because hes the only one that can save you.

He will lift you up, God doesn’t ask for much, your faithfulness, and your daily praises to him, which will put you on the right track, to repentency to get rid of our sins.

Where do we go from here?
I should know that by now, being that my girls and I have been in these streets for a while, even tho we still manage to keep our smiles, often feeling like 3 exiles.

We seen some highs and also lows, were done with these struggles, thats as far as it goes!!

That family of mine, truly left us behind, but this was the last time.
They didnt believe our story because they said I was lying, sleeping in the streets is not funny to me, nor is it supposed to be our reality, But it doesnt matter, God knows our truth, he is the one that kept us safe, each and every time we were moving place to place.

While family wondering why we’re able to text and blog, this is how we are able to get through the day so far, while sleeping day to day in our car.

I dont understand the things that people worry about, the truth and the matter is, this whole damn time, they could’ve been helping us out.

Where do we go from here?
Like the Phoenix, we shall rise from these ashes.
Never looking back, on the way to our destinys, this is our truth and a known fact, Finally Going down the right path and staying on the right track.

Walk in My Shoes

My Pain, My Life, My Struggles, My Fight

Try walking in my shoes
Waking up everyday not knowing
what to do
Feeling like the whole world is so against you

With every wandering eye
Wondering why, why are you here

But Excuse me, I have nowhere to go, neither here nor there
So please stop judging me & stop with the stares

I know stories like this are not often rare but im here to tell you, that this is me & my 2 daughters current nightmare

View original post

I Wanna Live Not Just Survive

I wanna live not just survive
I wanna be able to wake up happy
Not always cry

I hate feeling this way but thats whats inside, so I have to let it out, so I wont scream and shout

Im a Inspirational Poet
My struggle is real, just by looking at me
you wouldn’t even know it
Because no matter what im going through, I always manage to keep a smile on my face

But deep down inside theres a bitter taste thats trying to subside
But thats not always easy to do
Hide all of the hardships my family and I are currently going through

Yeah…who knew?!
Im Poetically Spoken
And I fell too
That just goes to show you the struggle is real

I just wanna be able to live my life and be happy, well…thats just how I feel

We tried seeking help but no one seems to care, which left my girls and I in the middle of nowhere Literally sleeping in my car, wasnt the best decision of mine, just means we didnt have a place to lay our heads at the time

I say it again I just wannna live and not just survive

I find myself stating that all the time
Cries in the dark, 3 broken hearts
It just seems like we dont matter but I know we do

Try taking a moment and step in our shoes
How would u feel if the whole world forgot about you?
Going to so called family who often turn there backs because they didnt care where we were at, under a bridge or in a parking lot

Is this the meaning of family? I think NOT!

Im Poetically Spoken, im here to share these powerful words from 3 voices that went unheard

United we are, united will always be

This is all apart of our dark and stormy journey, spoken poetically

When Darkness Falls

Most of my life the sun never shined
I pray for the light through my deepest darkess times
I lay in my bed asking God why?
Why you chose me? To live in this life

My world is so cold and its hard to survive
I try to believe that the worst is behind
When i take a step forward, i fall several times
Making me feel like im losing my mind

I say on to thee
Free of all the pain and all the misery

I dont wanna remain in this life you gave to me

I call out your name
MY LORD OH HOLY! Forgive me
MY GOD have mercy

Deliver my soul because im losing control
I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I drop to my knees and seen why Jesus wept

My Father in Heaven, have you turned your back on me?
I feel so alone because you never talk to me
I cry every night, hoping that you will see
I wanna be saved and serve you faithfully

The sun never shines, it only rains and storms on me
Tough times ahead, and more tears to shed

I cry out, NOMORE!
I cant take this spiritual war!

No one knows what i have to adore
They wouldnt believe the things that i saw

See, i believe that the end is near
Satan is whispering, hes whispering in my ear, saying Girl you better, you better fear
He grabbed on to me and said he aint going nowhere

This is the burden i carry with me
Do you hear me My Lord?
I need you desperately
He said on to me, turn away from him, satan knows that he can never win because the path he chose, a world full of sin
His life has already been condemned

I said to the lord, I thank you gracefully because all along you’ve carried me

Its hard to believe that the devil is after me
He comes into the night and attacks me in my sleep
I say my prayers to the one and only

Our Father in Heaven can you please protect me?
I just wanna be free and live my life in peace but im feeling so scared because its to much to bare

The sun never shines, just darkness falls on me
Will victory be mine? Or will i be damned for eternity?

Im Drowning

I’m Drowning! Can somebody help me out?!
Why cant anybody hear me scream and shout!

How in the hell did I fall down this well?
I fell on down, all one hundred and fifty pounds

Nobody didn’t hear that sound?

A Big Ole Crack
Lord I hope I didn’t break my back

I’m drowning and i’m calling
Funny how nobody didn’t see me falling

It happened a few minutes ago
Cant understand why anybody doesn’t know

I’m drowning, Please help me out!
I dont know how long I can keep the water from entering my mouth

Please dont ignore my cries & screams
Because if you do

Thats just mean

I’m Drowning
I’m in this well
And I still dont know how in the hell

Was i pushed ? or even thrown
All i know is, i’m drowning
And the answer is still unknown

Hopefully one day i’ll find out the truth

Did i fall down?
Or did someone give me a boost?

It really dont matter now

The fact is somebody left me here to drown

‘Our History Was Like A Deserted Street’

Dmitri Volkogonov

The parade with flags and cheering faces
passes across a scratched newsreel
in silence. No echo was caught on the soundtrack.
Events that mattered took place offstage.
Machine-guns stuttered from distant squares.

Families in that grey block of flats
were all taken. Some screamed for mercy.
Most went in sullen obedience. One by one
the little shops closed down.
The postman became a rare visitor.
No one wanted to set down the past.

They shut the newsagent's. Then the library.
Perhaps, behind that neo-classical facade,
the books are still gathering dust.
Probably not. They'll have been destroyed
along with the arches, for history
must be a series of blank chapters.
Those who could have testified will never come back.

It's not a street now for the living. Bare pavements.
Bare roadway. No hoardings or bicycles.
Uncurtained windows. Windows boarded up.
Smashed windows betraying darkness,
glass splinters glittering in the gutter.

The men and women who belonged here,
who bought their bread and cigarettes
and waited for trams chatting by the kerb
lie tossed in an unmarked pit.
Some ended as cold smoke
spewed from chimneys above the ovens.
Others sprawled as bones
among a handful of metal name-tags
in a ditch near a battlefield.

It took a lot of lead –
and chemicals – and paperwork.
It took determination as well as an unswerving
loyalty to the cause. It took time.
It took shoe-leather and medals
and throats gone hoarse from shouting orders.
It took cordite – and barbed wire –
and the axe-blade. It took persuasion.
But in the end it proved worth the trouble.
The street lies deserted.
It need never be peopled again.

I didn’t know you could just ask NASA for its defunct spacecraft. But apparently if you’ve got serious enough backing and a good plan, they’re open to negotiation.

NASA announced yesterday that it had signed an agreement with  Skycorp, Inc., in Los Gatos, California, to allow the company to “attempt to contact, and possibly command and control,” its more-than-35-year-old International Sun-Earth Explorer-3 (ISEE-3) spacecraft.

ISEE-3 was launched in 1978 and spent three years studying solar winds. It was then redirected to study two comets, Comet Giacobini-Zinner and Halley’s Comet, and since then it has continued to orbit the sun. The spacecraft’s orbit is now approaching the earth, and as our swinging child of the 70s swings back around, Skycorp’s  ISEE-3 Reboot Project will attempt to communicate with the ship if that’s still possible.

Skycorp’s hope is to maneuver the spaceship into a gravitationally stable point between the earth and the sun, known as Lagrangian 1 (L1), and then use the ship’s instruments for scientific study. The new data will be shared with the public as an educational tool.

“The intrepid ISEE-3 spacecraft was sent away from its primary mission to study the physics of the solar wind extending its mission of discovery to study two comets.” said John Grunsfeld, astronaut and associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA headquarters in Washington. “We have a chance to engage a new generation of citizen scientists through this creative effort to recapture the ISEE-3 spacecraft as it zips by the Earth this summer.”

Therapy of mitochondrial encephalomyopathies (defined restrictively as defects of the mitochondrial respiratory chain) is woefully inadequate, despite great progress in our understanding of the molecular bases of these disorders. In this review, we consider sequentially several different therapeutic approaches. Palliative therapy is dictated by good medical practice and includes anticonvulsant medication, control of endocrine dysfunction, and surgical procedures. Removal of noxious metabolites is centered on combating lactic acidosis, but extends to other metabolites. Attempts to bypass blocks in the respiratory chain by administration of electron acceptors have not been successful, but this may be amenable to genetic engineering. Administration of metabolites and cofactors is the mainstay of real-life therapy and is especially important in disorders due to primary deficiencies of specific compounds, such as carnitine or coenzyme Q10. There is increasing interest in the administration of reactive oxygen species scavengers both in primary mitochondrial diseases and in neurodegenerative diseases directly or indirectly related to mitochondrial dysfunction. Aerobic exercise and physical therapy prevent or correct deconditioning and improve exercise tolerance in patients with mitochondrial myopathies due to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations. Gene therapy is a challenge because of polyplasmy and heteroplasmy, but interesting experimental approaches are being pursued and include, for example, decreasing the ratio of mutant to wild-type mitochondrial genomes (gene shifting), converting mutated mtDNA genes into normal nuclear DNA genes (allotopic expression), importing cognate genes from other species, or correcting mtDNA mutations with specific restriction endonucleases. Germline therapy raises ethical problems but is being considered for prevention of maternal transmission of mtDNA mutations. Preventive therapy through genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis is becoming increasingly important for nuclear DNA-related disorders. Progress in each of these approaches provides some glimmer of hope for the future, although much work remains to be done.
