"This invention generally relates to residential countertop water treatment and filtration devices for improving the quality of potable water. ",
"More particularly, it relates to a countertop water filtration device that includes a water filter often alternatively defined as a cartridge, filter element, or filter unit.",
"\nU.S. Pat. ",
"Nos. ",
"5,510,031, 6,464,871, 6,532,982, 6,641,727 provide examples of such prior art filter faucet assemblies. ",
"These filter faucet devices are mostly complex, expensive, and contain filter elements or cartridges that can be difficult and messy to replace by end users not mechanically inclined. ",
"Several would require extensive modifications to the sink structure.",
"\nThese prior art filter faucets require partial disassembly when replacing the filtering element. ",
"Several of these devices further introduce the potential risk of water leakage under the sink or countertop, which may easily go undetected by a user who accesses the filtration device from above and thus may not be aware of any potential leakage under the counter where the main body and the pressurized housing are located. ",
"U.S. Pat. ",
"No. ",
"8,372,275 teaches an embodiment intended to reduce this complexity, however it has created new nuisances involving a complex base with a large footprint on a sink or countertop and an inefficient filter element with a short lifespan requiring relatively frequent replacement, thus being expensive and inconvenient in use.",
"\nTherefore, the need exists for a simple yet durable surface-mounted countertop water filtration device that corrects and overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art, is inexpensive in use, and can take advantage of a standard sink structure for attachment. ",
"The need also exists for a replaceable filter that is inexpensive, long lasting, and readily accessible for quick and easy replacement without any tools."

"Field of the Invention\nThis invention relates generally to a sheet feeding method and apparatus, and more particularly to means for closing selected ports of a vacuum sheet feed apparatus.",
"\n2. ",
"Description of the Prior Art\nIn modern reproduction equipment such as printing presses or copier/duplicators, copies are generally made on discrete copy sheets. ",
"The sheets are fed seriatim, either mechanically or pneumatically, from a supply along a transport path to a printing station where an ink or toner image is placed on the sheets. ",
"One type of pneumatic feeder which has been adapted for use in such reproduction equipment is a rotating vacuum feeder as shown in U.S. Pat. ",
"No. ",
"2,770,458 issued Aug. 14, 1953, in the name of Halahan, et al. ",
"Such a vacuum feeder has a series of ports in the wall of a rotating tubular housing, the ports being spaced in axial alignment along the housing transverse to the sheet travel path. ",
"A vacuum source connected to the interior of the housing creates a sub-atmospheric pressure condition in the area of the ports. ",
"The housing is rotated to locate the ports adjacent to a supply stack of discrete sheets where the vacuum causes the portion of a sheet opposite the ports to be stripped from the stack and tacked to the housing. ",
"As the housing is rotated from this position, the tacked sheet is drawn from the stack and fed along the transport path. ",
"While such an arrangement is generally satisfactory for efficient feeding of discrete sheets, misfeeds or objectional multiple sheet feeds may occur if the sheets have holes which are aligned with the ports in the housing during transport. ",
"Sheets upon which it is often desired to make copies include, for example, 3-hole and 7-hole punched paper."

"Tripoli (AFP) - Libya will investigate alleged slave trading in the country, the internationally recognised government announced Sunday, following the release of video footage appearing to show migrants being auctioned off.",
"\n\nChaos-ridden Libya has long been a major transit hub for migrants trying to reach Europe, and many of them have fallen prey to serious abuse in the North African country at the hands of traffickers and others.",
"\n\nUS television network CNN aired the footage last week of an apparent live auction in Libya where black men are presented to North African buyers as potential farmhands and sold off for as little as $400.",
"\n\nDeputy Prime Minister Ahmed Metig said his UN-backed Government of National Accord would investigate the allegations, in a statement posted Sunday on the Facebook page of the GNA's press office.",
"\n\nMetig said he would instruct the formation of a \"commission to investigate these reports in order to apprehend and bring those responsible to justice\", the statement added.",
"\n\nThe foreign ministry in a statement added: \"If these allegations are confirmed, all implicated persons will be punished.\"",
"\n\nThe CNN report apparently showing migrants being auctioned off in Libya was shared widely on social media, provoking outrage in Africa, Europe and the rest of the world.",
"\n\nThe grainy footage shot on a mobile telephone shows a man CNN said was Nigerian and in his 20s being offered up for sale as part of a group of \"big strong boys for farm work\".",
"\n\nIn the CNN report, a person identified as an auctioneer can be heard saying \"800... 900... 1,000... 1,100...\" before two men are sold for 1,200 Libyan dinars ($875).",
"\n\nAround 1,000 people took to the streets of Paris on Saturday to protest against slavery in Libya, according to French police. ",
"The gathering led to clashes between demonstrators and security forces.",
"\n\nGuinean President Alpha Conde, who is also chairman of the African Union, on Friday called for an inquiry and prosecutions relating to what he termed a \"despicable trade... from another era\".",
"\n\nStory continues\n\nSenegal's government expressed \"outrage at the sale of Sub-Saharan African migrants on Libyan soil\" that constituted a \"blight on the conscience of humanity\".",
"\n\nNiger's president Mahamadou Issoufou said the issue had made him \"deeply angry\" and urged Libyan authorities and international organisations to do \"everything possible to stop this practice\".",
"\n\nAfrican migrants from nations including Guinea and Senegal but also Mali, Niger, Nigeria and Gambia make the dangerous crossing through the Sahara to Libya with hopes of making it over the Mediterranean Sea to Italy.",
"\n\nBut testimony collected by AFP has revealed a litany of rights abuses at the hands of gangsters, human traffickers and the Libyan security forces, while many end up stuck in the unstable North African nation for years.",
"\n\nMore than 8,800 stranded migrants have been returned home this year, according to the International Organization for Migration, which is also compiling evidence of slavery."

"TRANSPARENCY AND MEDICINE – A series examining issues from ethics to the evidence in evidence-based medicine, the influence of medical journals to the role of Big Pharma in our present and future health.",
"\n\nToday Ivan Oransky and Adam Marcus argue that the growing number of articles retracted from academic journals is good news for science.",
"\n\nWhen we created Retraction Watch in August 2010, we had no idea that the first full year of the blog, 2011, would mark a record number of retractions, with around 400.",
"\n\nThat number is still quite small compared with the number of papers published, some 1.4 million. ",
"But the trend is clear: about 50% more studies published since a decade ago, but ten times the number of retractions.",
"\n\nIn some circles, this trend has caused consternation. ",
"Oh no, goes the argument, there must be more fraud! ",
"It’s actually not quite clear, however, what has led to the rise. ",
"Clearly, plagiarism detection software has played a role. ",
"And some 90 of the retractions belonged to one researcher, anesthesiologist Joachim Boldt.",
"\n\nIt may simply be that scientists are finding more studies to retract simply because more people are looking at papers – just as you’d expect to see more cases of a particular disease once public health officials started a screening campaign.",
"\n\nMore retractions equal more transparency\n\nNo matter what the reason, the presence of more retractions means that more scientists are admitting – or , in many cases, being forced to admit – their mistakes. ",
"And that’s a good thing, not only because it gives us far more to write about than we can possibly manage.",
"\n\nAcknowledging that things don’t always go right, and trying to figure out what went wrong to move a field forward, are hallmarks of a transparent and mature profession. ",
"In the case of clinical trials, where the lives of participants as well as those treated based on the results are at stake, such transparency is even more of a moral imperative.",
"\n\nMaking science even more transparent\n\nOf course, there’s a catch: more retractions only means more transparency if the notices accompanying the retractions give enough detail for researchers, and the public, to figure out what happened. (",
"Such notices should also be free to view, not behind a paywall, as the Committee on Publication Ethics notes.)",
"\n\nMichael Newman\n\nUnhelpful notices such as “This article has been withdrawn by the authors” serve the interests of no one, and yet they regularly appear in top journals.",
"\n\nWe’d like to think that the scientific community simply won’t stand for such opacity in an age when so many people can read and comment on papers. ",
"Our readers often figure out what’s wrong with studies whose retraction notices say nothing, and they are as frustrated as we are with editors’ stubbornness.",
"\n\nEditors often blame institutions who are slow to announce findings of their own investigations. ",
"But journal editors can wield impressive power when they want to. ",
"After all, institutions require that researchers publish in order to gain tenure and grants.",
"\n\nSo it’s heartening to see what someone like Steve Shafer, editor of Anasthesia & Analgesia, has done several times now when he realizes one of his journal’s authors has committed misconduct: he gets out in front of such cases, announcing in detail what he has found, and notifying readers as publicly as possible, often before institutional investigations are complete.",
"\n\nThat has pressured institutions to speed up their work.",
"\n\nA more seamless publishing future\n\nOur hope – which may seem counterintuitive for two journalists who run a blog about retractions - is that retractions themselves will become less important. ",
"Here’s why: we’d like science to stop fetishizing the scientific paper. ",
"To those who say no one ever did, we’d ask why so many grant and tenure decision are based on the number and quality of publications, and why so many authors and editors are reluctant to retract.",
"\n\nlistentothemountains/Flickr\n\nScience doesn’t only move forward when papers are published, just as it doesn’t only move forward by “eureka moments.”",
"\n\nThe world we envision embraces post-publication peer review in a more rigorous way. ",
"It welcomes all comments and critiques of papers, whether they’re on a blog, anonymous, or from a senior scientist.",
"\n\nAfter all, science would like us to think that it is always self-correcting. ",
"How does treating a paper as sacred accomplish that? ",
"We recognize that shifting to such a model – evidence of which we’ve already seen – will require massive changes to our approach to recognizing accomplishment by individual scientists.",
"\n\nBut that’s a small price to pay for a scientific publishing system that’s more transparent, and actually reflects how science works.",

"Q:\n\nF# permutations\n\nI need to generate permutations on a given list. ",
"I managed to do it like this\nlet rec Permute (final, arr) = \n if List.length arr > 0 then\n for x in arr do\n let n_final = final @ [x]\n let rest = arr |> List.filter (fun a -> not (x = a))\n Permute (n_final, rest)\n else\n printfn \"%A\" final\n\nlet DoPermute lst = \n Permute ([], lst)\n\nDoPermute lst\n\nThere are obvious issues with this code. ",
"For example, list elements must be unique. ",
"Also, this is more-less a same approach that I would use when generating straight forward implementation in any other language. ",
"Is there any better way to implement this in F#.",
"\nThanks!",
"\n\nA:\n\nHere's the solution I gave in my book F# for Scientists (page 166-167):\nlet rec distribute e = function\n | [] -> [[e]]\n | x::xs' as xs -> (e::xs)::[for xs in distribute e xs' -> x::xs]\n\nlet rec permute = function\n | [] -> [[]]\n | e::xs -> List.collect (distribute e) (permute xs)\n\nA:\n\nFor permutations of small lists, I use the following code:\nlet distrib e L =\n let rec aux pre post = \n seq {\n match post with\n | [] -> yield (L @ [e])\n | h::t -> yield (List.rev pre @ [e] @ post)\n yield! ",
"aux (h::pre) t \n }\n aux [] L\n\nlet rec perms = function \n | [] -> Seq.singleton []\n | h::t -> Seq.collect (distrib h) (perms t)\n\nIt works as follows: the function \"distrib\" distributes a given element over all positions in a list, example:\ndistrib 10 [1;2;3] --> [[10;1;2;3];[1;10;2;3];[1;2;10;3];[1;2;3;10]]\n\nThe function perms works (recursively) as follows: distribute the head of the list over all permutations of its tail.",
"\nThe distrib function will get slow for large lists, because it uses the @ operator a lot, but for lists of reasonable length (<=10), the code above works fine.",
"\nOne warning: if your list contains duplicates, the result will contain identical permutations. ",
"For example:\nperms [1;1;3] = [[1;1;3]; [1;1;3]; [1;3;1]; [1;3;1]; [3;1;1]; [3;1;1]]\n\nThe nice thing about this code is that it returns a sequence of permutations, instead of generating them all at once.",
"\nOf course, generating permutations with an imperative array-based algorithm will be (much) faster, but this algorithm has served me well in most cases.",
"\n\nA:\n\nIt depends on what you mean by \"better\". ",
" I'd consider this to be slightly more elegant, but that may be a matter of taste:\n(* get the list of possible heads + remaining elements *)\nlet rec splitList = function\n| [x] -> [x,[]]\n| x::xs -> (x, xs) :: List.map (fun (y,l) -> y,x::l) (splitList xs)\n\nlet rec permutations = function\n| [] -> [[]]\n| l -> \n splitList l \n |> List.collect (fun (x,rest) ->\n (* permute remaining elements, then prepend head *)\n permutations rest |> List.map (fun l -> x::l))\n\nThis can handle lists with duplicate elements, though it will result in duplicated permutations.",

"Vitamin D Cuts Pancreatic Cancer Risk\n\nTaking vitamin D cut the risk of pancreatic cancer nearly in half, according to a new study that is being called the first to show such a benefit.",
"\n\nVitamin D protects against colorectal and breast cancer, earlier studies have found. ",
"And lab and animal studies show it stifles abnormal cell growth and curbs formation of blood vessels that feed tumors.",
"\n\n“I’ve been converted from a skeptic about a role of vitamin D in preventing cancer to a believer that there’s something there,” said Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, deputy chief medical officer for the American Cancer Society.",
"\n\nTaking 450 international units (IUs) of vitamin D — about the standard dose in most multivitamins — reduced the risk of pancreatic cancer by 43 percent, according to researchers at Northwestern and Harvard universities who led the latest study.",
"\n\nThere was no significant added benefit from taking more than that amount. ",
"But there was decreased benefit from taking less: Taking 150 to 300 IUs a day reduced the risk of pancreatic cancer by just 22 percent, the researchers found.",
"\n\n“The take-home message is that it’s important to maintain adequate vitamin D intake,” said Hal Skinner, who led the research.",
"\n\nThe study appears in the September issue of a medical journal, Cancer Epidemiology Biomarkers & Prevention.",
"\n\nThe research drew data from two earlier studies, one of more than 46,000 men and one of more than 75,000 women, that followed study participants for decades. ",
"In the 1980s, people in both studies were asked detailed questions about their diet. ",
"From those responses, the researchers calculated the daily intake of vitamin D, calcium, and a form of vitamin A called retinol.",
"\n\nThe researchers then looked at who later developed pancreatic cancer, and also looked at smoking history and other factors.",
"\n\nThrough a statistical analysis, they concluded 12.5 cases of pancreatic cancer occurred each year per 100,000 people taking 600 or more IUs of vitamin D. The rate was 21 cases for patients taking below 150 IUs each day.",
"\n\nThe body makes vitamin D from sunlight, but the researchers were not able to assess sunlight exposure in the participants, said Skinner, who was at Northwestern at the time of the study but now is assistant professor of population health sciences at the University of Wisconsin.",
"\n\nVitamin D is also found in salmon, tuna and other oily fish, and is routinely added to milk. ",
"Government advisers have suggested 400 IUs of vitamin D for people ages 50 to 70, and 600 IUs for people over 70, but lower levels for younger people.",
"\n\nMultivitamins often package retinol with vitamin D to promote bone health, but it appears retinol has a diluting effect on the benefits of vitamin D against pancreatic cancer, Skinner said.",
"\nMore research needs to be done into whether nutritional supplements that contain vitamin D alone are better cancer fighters than those that include retinol, he suggested.",
"\n\nPancreatic cancer is relatively rare, accounting for just 2 percent of new cancer cases in the United States. ",
"But it’s also highly lethal — the fourth-deadliest cancer in the United States. ",
"About 33,700 Americans will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer this year, and 32,300 will die.",
"\n\nThere is no early-detection test. ",
"Early symptoms are vague complaints like indigestion. ",
"More telling symptoms, like yellowing skin, usually don’t appear until the cancer has spread and patients may have only months to live."

"Hormone naïve metastatic prostate cancer: How to treat it?",
"\nRecent landmark studies (GETUG-AFU 15, CHAARTED, STAMPEDE (docetaxel), LATITUDE and STAMPEDE (abiraterone)) have changed the treatment of hormone sensitive metastatic prostate cancer (mHSPC) from androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) only to combined therapy with either docetaxelor abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AAP) together with ADT. ",
"In this Review we highlight current evidence and recommendations on how to treat men with newly diagnosed mHSPC beyond ADT. ",
"METHODS: Narrative overview of available evidence retrieved from pubmed searches, hand searches and authoritative texts. ",
"Docetaxel or AAP in combination with ADT improves overall survival (OS) in men fit for combined treatment presenting with newly diagnosed mHSPC. ",
"The strongest evidence is for men with high volume mHSPC (four or more bone metastases with at least one outside the axial skeleton and/or visceral metastases) or mHSPC with high risk features (A minimum of two out of three following high-risk features: Gleason score ≥ 8, ≥ 3 bone lesions or visceral metastasis) as per CHAARTED and LATITUDE criteria, respectively. ",
"While upfront docetaxel and AAP yield comparable OS improvement, docetaxel has not been shown to increase OS specifically for men with low volume/low risk mHSPC, whereas, a recent post-hoc analysis from the STAMPEDE (abiraterone) trial showed consistent overall survival benefit of AAP plus ADT independent of risk stratification. ",
"While these data are limited by their retrospective nature, they do suggest that patients with low-risk mHSPC should be offered AAP. ",
"In men with high volume/high risk mHSPC, choosing between six-cycles of docetaxel or AAP until disease progression relies on patient preference, cost and individual assessment of which drug side-effect profile is most suitable. ",
"Offer men presenting with newly diagnosed mHSPC fit enough for combined therapy either ADT plus docetaxel or AAP."

"Cracked Writer Questioned By Secret Service Agents Over Humorous Article About Kidnapping President's Daughters\n\nfrom the someone's-still-reading-the-entire-internet-every-day dept\n\nDefenders of national surveillance have often asserted that the government (specifically, its intelligence and investigative agencies) isn't interested in your \"emails/phone calls to Grandma\" or your \"cat videos.\" ",
"It's a stupid dodge which attempts to portray internet surveillance as only focused on legitimate threats to national security.",
"\n\n\n\nBut the surveillance is omnipresent, and even those who would have honestly felt the government was unconcerned with their internet activities sometimes find themselves being questioned by Secret Service members over humorous articles that dared to invoke the word \"President.\"",
"\n\n\n\nCracked writer Daniel O'Brien, due to certain preoccupations with very specific subject matter, found himself chatting with two government agents due to a previously published humorous article (since removed, but archived here) that dealt with kidnapping the president's daughter. ",
"This, combined with research for his book, apparently got him flagged in a national security database.",
"\n\nI wrote a book about president fighting called How to Fight Presidents, which just came out today. ",
"It's a comedic nonfiction book that teaches you, appropriately enough, how to beat the crap out of every single lunatic who ran this country.",
"\n\n\n\nOr not every president. ",
"People who buy the book (which you can do right here or here) might notice that I've curiously left out every president that's still alive currently. ",
"Well, when you do the kind of research associated with this subject matter (Google \"Bill+Clinton+weaknesses\"), certain flags are raised, flags that the government takes notice of…\n\n\n\nI won't get into the specifics of the article, but it was sort of a \"how to\" guide and has since been taken down (I've no doubt someone in the comments will clarify which article I'm talking about). ",
"In addition to having to take the article down, I also get stopped and pulled aside at airports five out of six times that I fly.",
"\n\n\"I just mean I'm not some, I don't know, government dud. ",
"Believe it or not, I've got a sense of humor; most of us do around here. ",
"I know it's a comedy website, I know you're doing jokes. ",
"It just so happens that it's my job to pay attention when certain ... concepts are brought up online. ",
"That article, combined with your fascination with fighting presidents ... well, that's the kind of thing I need to know about.\"",
"\n\n\"In entry #2,\" Agent Hardass began, \"you point out a number of common mistakes people make when breaking into the White House, including, quote, leaving either too much or not enough semen around, end quote. ",
"Why did you say that?\"",
"\n\nIf you've ever wondered what it's like to watch comedy as a concept die, I can assure you it's me sitting in a freezing room explaining to two angry government agents why \"murder-boner\" is an inherently more richly comedic pairing of words than \"death-erection.\"",
"\n\nThank you for reading this Techdirt post. ",
"With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. ",
"We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community. ",
"Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. ",
"We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis. ",
"While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. ",
"But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. ",
"We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. ",
"Thank you.",
"\n\n–The Techdirt Team\n\nThe end result was the Secret Service contacting Cracked's HR department in hopes of reaching O'Brien to \"discuss\" his \"lightly treasonous\" article. ",
"O'Brien's first contact with the Secret Service was via a phone conversation with an agent who explained (rather sympathetically) that while the agency had the capability to recognize satire, it had the duty to run out every ground ball, so to speak.",
"However, his next stop was a trip to downtown Los Angeles to meet with two Secret Service agents who weren't quite as blessed in the humor department. ",
"The two agents were clearly taking the situation as seriously as anyone can take subject matter that describes President Jimmy Carter's daughter escaping a kidnapping vessel by \"slicing through the ocean like a goddamned dolphin.",
"\"When O'Brien attempted to defend his humorous article by stating it was full of \"impractical\" and \"useless\" advice, the agents took it as an admission that he knew plenty ofandways to pull off the kidnapping of a First Child. ",
"The innate ability of the agents to use his own answers against him, as well as their apparent innate lack of a sense of humor, led to O'Brien being asked unanswerable questions like this one:Nothing makes a joke funnier than a long explanation of what's funny about it, and apparently O'Brien was forced to live through this particular form of post-joke hell for a majority of the two hours he was questioned.",
"After exhausting the comedy-or-threat possibilities of O'Brien's article, the agents went on to more easily-answered (but equally difficult to prove) questions like, \"Are you a terrorist?\" ",
"and \"Are you affiliated with any terrorist groups?\" ",
"And... \"Do you have the skeleton of Pocahontas stashed in your closet?\"So, all's well that ends well, I suppose, but O'Brien will likely be rewarded for his anti-presidential writings with extra attention at airports and a heightened sense of (mostly justifiable) paranoia. ",
"The government may not care about cat videos and grandma, but it still takes every joke about certain subject matter The NSA (and others) may claim they grab more data than content, but all this limitation really does is ensure your content and data will be completely divorced from their context. ",
"O'Brien wrote obviously satirical articles about presidents and had to go explain humor to Secret Service agents. ",
"Anyone else who says something that trips the surveillance triggers is now a potential national security target, and at the mercy of agencies that can work backwards through thousands of datapoints and content snippets, completely free to construct their own narrative from the context-free information just sitting around on their servers.",

"The research mission of the Stem Cells Toxicology (SCT) Group is to characterize responses to toxicants to elucidate mechanisms and identify the role of stem cells (SCs) in disease manifestation. ",
"The major focus has been on arsenic (As) with a smaller Cd project. ",
"Arsenic and cadmium are inorganic carcinogens that are major human health hazards and defining mechanisms is key to defining risk. ",
"We primarily use target-relevant cell models of both mature differentiated cells and SCs. ",
"Cadmium (Cd) is a well-defined human and rodent carcinogen, so cell models are used to define mechanisms in established/suspected human targets. ",
"Accepted human targets for iAs (iAs)are the lung, skin and urinary bladder and suspected targets are the prostate, liver and kidney. ",
"Cd clearly targets the human lung but the prostate, liver, and kidney are considered likely targets. ",
"Millions of people worldwide are exposed to unhealthy As levels in drinking water but questions remain about health issues of low-level exposures, making elucidation of mechanisms all the more important. ",
"With Cd environmental exposure may play an important role in cancer. ",
"In a recent advent, members of SCT Group developed a mouse transplacental cancer model in which multiple studies show As exposure in utero causes or facilitates adulthood tumors at various sites, including known human targets (e.g. lung, liver, skin and urinary bladder). ",
"These mouse studies stimulated work on early life human As exposure from the drinking water and its association with adulthood cancers. ",
"Human data from a population in Chil that was exposed in early life to high natural levels of As in drinking water from 1958 to 1970 link As exposure to lung, liver and kidney cancer. ",
"These stunning results prompted Dr. Allen Smith, a prominent epidemiologist to say that this As exposure had resulted in the greatest increases in cancer mortality in adults ever associated with early-life environmental exposure. ",
"Similarly, a high-dose pulse exposure in early life caused by iAs-contaminated powdered milk in infants in the 1950s is now being linked to cancer in survivors, including liver cancer. ",
"Using a whole life exposure model, which more reasonably duplicates typical human exposure, we recently showed that mice exposed to low levels (50 ppb) of As in drinking water develop lung cancer as adults. ",
"This is the first study to show tumor development in animals exposed to very low levels of As, similar to which humans might be exposed. ",
"Exposure to even lower concentrations during gestation or early life are needed to help define molecular changes that result in disease manifestation later in life. ",
"Human and rodent evidence indicate early life is a time of sensitivity to iAs exposure. ",
"The early life period, including in utero and neonatal life, is also a time of high SC activity due to organogenesis, global proliferative growth, etc. ",
"iAs as a cancer chemotherapeutic can impact SC programming as part of its therapeutic mode of action, which led us to hypothesize that during early life SCs could be a key target population of As carcinogenesis. ",
"Perinatal As exposure, which induces or predisposes mice to lung, skin, urinary bladder, liver or kidney tumors as adults, also causes an over-abundance putative cancer SCs (CSCs) in many of these same tumors. ",
"We also find superior innate and acquired As resistance in human and rodent SC lines, involving general and As-specific adaptation. ",
"Malignant transformation of a heterogenous mature prostate line with As causes a stunning CSC overproduction. ",
"A major issue is how As can specifically target SCs and the molecular manifestations of this targeting. ",
"We are using target-relevant SC cell lines (prostate, skin, kidney, liver, lung) to look into these important questions. ",
"Human data indicate that where elevated As exposure is remediated, despite long-term exposure cessation, cancer risk remains elevated in lung and bladder for at least 40 years, fortifying the notion that a quiescent, long-lived cell (i.e. SC) passes damage along for years. ",
"In the lung, iAs can induce both squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma, the former predominantly associated with ingestion and the latter with inhalation. ",
"We used human peripheral lung cells to investigate the effects and mechanisms involved in As-induced lung adenocarcinoma. ",
"We find that low-level exposure induces a cancer phenotype in these cells. ",
"We can continue to use this human lung model to further define mechanisms and the role of lung SCs in the process of iAs carcinogenesis in the lung. ",
"We have previously found that methylarsonous acid (MMA3+), a biomethylation product of iAs, does not need to be further methylated to produce oxidative DNA damage. ",
"This may be important for the lung, as a genetic predisposition to poorly methylate As past MMA was recently linked to lung cancer in humans, possibly indicating a unique sensitivity to MMA3+ in lung cells. ",
"Our lung cell model will allow us to investigate this important question. ",
"Neither As nor Cd appears to be directly mutagenic, suggesting they have other mechanisms of action. ",
"Epigenetic modifications are heritable changes in gene transcription that are not caused by changes in DNA sequence. ",
"Epigenetic modifications can play a role in cancers induced by both As and Cd. ",
"Using next generation sequencing we identified multiple dysregulated genes in an As-transformed cell model. ",
"Five of the most highly dysregulated genes were chosen for more in-depth analysis of DNA methylation in As and Cd transformants. ",
"Four of the five genes showed differential methylation in the transformants when compared to control cells. ",
"Methylation was inversely related to gene expression in the transformed cells. ",
"These results further demonstrate that epigenetic factors, specifically DNA methylation in this case, play a role in As and Cd carcinogenesis. ",
"The oncogene, KRAS, is highly up-regulated during As-induced malignant transformation. ",
"We found no evidence of DNA damage during this process and this cell line is biomethylation-deficient suggesting up-regulation of KRAS is not the result of mutation or methylation, but likely epigenetic factors. ",
"MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that negatively regulate gene expression at a post-transcriptional level. ",
"We find that As exposure causes a dysregulation of miRNA expression that appears to control RAS activation during malignant transformation of human prostate epithelial and SCs. ",
"Knockdown of RAS expression partially mitigates malignant phenotype of As-transformed epithelial cells and SCs. ",
"These data suggest miRNA-regulated RAS expression is a putative driver in As-induced malignant transformation. ",
"These studies will help determine the role of miRNAs and underlying epigenetic mechanisms involved in As carcinogenesis. ",
"Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants that have a wide range of toxicities including cancer, reproductive and developmental effects, immunotoxicity. ",
"Together with the Toxicology Branch of DNTP, we are helping characterize the toxicity of a broad range of individual PAHs, defined PAH mixtures, and complex environmental mixtures containing PAHs using various cell lines. ",
"The prostate is a human target of Cd. ",
"Unlike As, which selects for SC accumulation, Cd early on selectively kills SCs causing 90% cytolethality in our prostate SC line exposed to a non-toxic, but transforming, level for the heterogeneous parental line. ",
"The remaining SCs rapidly re-emerge and undergo transformation. ",
"We are determining if Cd has transformed these SCs and observing these SCs and the mature cell line for selection of hyper-resistant SCs. ",
"We are also developing liver and kidney SC models of As and Cd transformation and defining the metabolic profiles of these cells during the carcinogenic process."

"Q:\n\nAWS Auto-Scaling\n\nI'm trying AWS auto-scaling for the first time, as far as I understand it creates instances if for example my CPU Utilization reaches critical level, that I define.",
"\nSo I am curious, after I lunch my instance I spend a fair amount of time configuring it and copying the data, if AWS auto-scales my instance how will it configure the new instances and move the data to it?",
"\n\nA:\n\nYou can't store any data that you want to keep on an instance that is part of an autoscaling group (well you can, but you will lose it).",
"\nThere are (at least) two ways to answer your question:\n\nCreate a 'golden image', in other words spin-up an instance, configure it, install the software etc and then save it as an AMI (amazon machine image). ",
"Then tell the autoscaling group to use that AMI each time an instance starts - it will be pre-configured when it starts.",
"\nPut a script on the instance that tells the instance how to configure itself when it starts up (in the user data). ",
"SO basically each time an instance scales up, it runs the script and does all the steps it needs to to configure itself.",
"\n\nAs for you data, best practice would be to store any data you want to keep in a database or object store that is not on the instance - so something like RDS, DynamoDB or even S3 objects.",

"Microsoft has reportedly sold out all the Windows Phone devices, but the ambitious Windows Phone Mobile operating system (OS) was dead almost a couple of years ago.",
"\n\nThere have been many reports that Microsoft has \"successfully\" managed to sell all of the remaining Windows Phones and that they are no longer in-stock on any major platform both online and offline.",
"\n\nWhile we already know that Windows Phone was dead for good about a year ago, we still love how the mobile operating system (OS) was a black sheep among the Androids and iOSes of the smartphone world. ",
"So we decided to take a look at the rise and fall of the Windows Phone OS and what were the reasons this radical mobile OS couldn't find the kind of success that Android and iOS found despite a promising beginning.",
"\n\nWhy Windows Phone didn't make the cutReuters\n\nThe rise of the Windows Phone mobile OS\n\nBefore Android became the giant mobile operating system (OS) that we know today, Microsoft ruled the \"smartphone\" OS landscape with its 'Windows Mobile' OS. ",
"This was a very long time ago, perhaps in the early 2000s when smartphones didn't look the least like what they do today and were mostly called Personal Digital Assistants or simply PDAs.",
"\n\nIn the years that followed, the Redmond-giant started developing its mobile operating system with a view to taking on fledgling that was called Google Android mobile OS. ",
"By this time iOS had become a popular choice with people who were migrating from PDAs to touch-enabled iPhones (read the iPhone 3 and the iPhone 3GS). ",
"This was the time when Android was still in infancy.",
"\n\nThe year 2010, Microsoft came up with a new and improved successor of the Windows Mobile platform with Windows Phone OS, and people had huge expectations from this one as the Bill Gates-led Microsoft Corporation had always been the OS of choice for PCs and laptops for a very long time.",
"\n\nThe marketing was good. ",
"Windows Phone OS with its \"Metro design\" Tiles for apps looked and felt like a fresh breath of air in an atmosphere dominated by app trays. ",
"It had everything to become a successful mobile OS, but it came to be perceived as a more mature-looking OS meant for corporate-level individuals, just like how Blackberry OS came to be associated with the office-going, corporate crowd.",
"\n\nNokia had dedicated itself to manufacturing smartphones that would Windows Phone OSReuters\n\nAround two years later in 2012, Windows Mobile captured a sufficient ground, especially with Nokia dedicating itself solely to the new OS. ",
"It was around the same time that iPhone sales also started booming and Google came up with its confectionery-themed nomenclature for its Android OS called Android Cupcake, Android Donut and Android Eclairs.",
"\n\nMicrosoft held a steady ground against the iPhones and the hordes of new Android smartphones that were being launched, yet its popularity slowly began to diminish and in 2014, Microsoft which had little takers for its Windows Phone OS by then, went ahead and bought Nokia in a $7.2 billion deal.",
"\n\nThe end of the road for Windows Phone\n\nThe deal meant that Nokia would manufacture smartphones that would entirely run on Windows Phone OS. ",
"The OS got some updates as well, with Windows Phone 7.1 Mango, Windows Phone 7.5 and later Windows Phone 8 and Windows Phone 8.1. ",
"But despite this, other manufacturers hardly came up with new Windows phones, with the likes of lesser-known smartphone brands like Acer and Alcatel being the last of the OEMs to still manufacture Windows Phone models.",
"\n\n(Representational image) Microsoft Windows Phone 7.5 MangoReuters\n\nSamsung too had pledged allegiance to Windows Phone at one point in time, but it joined the Android bandwagon where the sales were looking good.",
"\n\nIn 2015, Windows Phone was next to dead. ",
"It had a plummeting market share that then accounted for less than three percent of the smartphones. ",
"In 2016, a lot of app developers pulled out support on the Windows Phone Platform, and thus the once promising mobile OS saw an untimely death.",
"\n\nAfter years of struggle to match up to Android and iOS, in 2017, Microsoft officially announced that the Windows Phone platform is dead.",
"\n\nBut what were the reasons Microsoft's mobile OS wasn't able to replicate the kind of success that the company had with its desktop-version? ",
"Well, there are many reasons and we've tried to answer it.",
"\n\nWhy did Windows Phone OS fail?",
"\n\nThe biggest and most probable reason for Windows Phones not being able to match up to Android and iOS has to be app support.",
"\n\nMicrosoft's stringent rules made it difficult for app developers to develop apps for Windows Phone. ",
"The apps lacked a lot of features which were available on their Android and iOS versions. ",
"Also, the fact that Microsoft had a very strict process of selecting which apps would make it on to its app market called \"Windows Marketplace\". ",
"This discouraged a lot of app developers who began ignoring the OS and stopped providing updates.",
"\n\nEventually, the app makers decided to ditch the platform completely and focus on where the money was, i.e. Android and iOS.",
"\n\nThe next reason would have to do with the hardware part. ",
"Like its software filtering, Microsoft had set rules on what kind of hardware specifications its phones will have. ",
"For instance, most Windows Phones manufactured by Samsung and Nokia, in the beginning, had strictly 512MB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage which wasn't expandable. ",
"Users expected a larger internal storage option or at least a choice for expandable memory.",
"\n\nNevertheless, the OS used to run flawlessly smooth with this kind of hardware specs.",
"\n\nLastly, Microsoft taking over Nokia and rebranding the smartphones as 'Microsoft' mobiles could also be one of the reasons since Nokia had some brand loyalty.",
"\n\nDespite Windows 10 Mobile, which is possibly the last Windows Phone version, the OS just didn't catch up with the advancements made by Google with Android and Apple with iOS.",
"\n\nWindows 10 Mobile came with a lot of interesting features such as 'Continuum' that would allow users to use their Windows mobile as a Windows PC but nothing helped it stay afloat.",
"\n\nNevertheless, we will miss Windows Phone for its unconventional look and feel and its super smooth operation even with very little RAM and comparatively low-powered processors. ",
"Now, there are reports that Microsoft has no more Windows Phone devices left to sell, which means Windows Phone is gone for good. ",
"But we would love to see the tech giant would be interested to give the mobile industry another shot with an improved and more equipped Windows Phone successor."

"The research lab of the associate professor (Privatdozent) Dr. Thomas Becker at the University of Freiburg discovered a mechanism that solves blockades on the protein highway towards the powerhouse of the cell. ",
"The researchers published their findings in Nature.",
"\n\nMitochondria produce the bulk of cellular energy and are therefore referred to as powerhouses of the cell. ",
"In order to fulfill their functions, mitochondria depend on the import of about 1,000 different proteins. ",
"These proteins are synthesized as precursors in the cytosol. ",
"Specific protein machineries, termed protein translocases, transport these precursor proteins across the two surrounding membranes of mitochondria. ",
"The translocase of the outer membrane, TOM complex, forms the entry gate for almost all precursor proteins. ",
"A small portion of the precursors proteins can be stalled in the translocation channel of the TOM complex and blocks the import of further proteins into mitochondria. ",
"Impaired protein translocation into mitochondria is deleterious for the cell and leads to a number of cellular stress responses. ",
"How the cell prevents an accumulation of such clogged TOM complex is unclear.",
"\n\nResearchers from the research training group 2202 \"Transport Across and Into Membranes,\" and the cluster of excellence CIBSS -- Centre for Integrative Biological Signalling Studies at the University of Freiburg discovered a new mechanism that clears TOM complexes from stalled precursor proteins. ",
"Christoph Mårtensson from the Becker lab showed in collaboration with the group of Prof. Dr. Bettina Warscheid an interaction of the protein Ubx2 with the TOM complex. ",
"This finding was unexpected for the researchers since Ubx2 was previously found to function in the removal of misfolded proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum, another cell organelle. ",
"Becker´s team showed that Ubx2 is also present in mitochondria, where it binds to the TOM complex to recruit the cytosolic Cdc48. ",
"Cdc48 powers the extraction of stalled precursor protein from the TOM complex and transfers it to the cellular protein degradation machinery, the proteasome.",
"\n\nThe researchers termed this pathway the \"mitochondrial protein translocation-associated degradation,\" mitoTAD. ",
"The mitoTAD mechanism allows efficient removal of clogged precursor proteins from the TOM complex and ensures unimpeded protein traffic into mitochondria. ",
"Since defects in protein transport into mitochondria has been linked to neurodegenerative disorders, the mitoTAD pathway could provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms that lead to the development of such diseases."

"Analysis and suppression of side radiation in leaky SAW resonators.",
"\nThis paper discusses side acoustic radiation in leaky surface acoustic wave (LSAW) resonators on rotated Y-cut lithium tantalite substrates. ",
"The mechanism behind side radiation, which causes a large insertion loss, is analyzed by using the scalar potential theory. ",
"This analysis reveals that side radiation occurs when the guiding condition is not satisfied, and the LSAW most strongly radiates at the frequency in which the LSAW velocities in the grating and busbar regions approximately correspond to each other. ",
"Based on these results, we propose a \"narrow finger structure,\" which satisfies the guiding condition and drastically suppresses the side radiation. ",
"Experiments show that the resonance Q of the proposed structure drastically improves to over 1000 by suppressing the side radiation, which is three times higher than for a conventional structure. ",
"Applying the proposed resonators to the ladder-type SAW filters, ultra-low-loss and steep cut-off characteristics are achieved in the range of 800 MHz and 1.9 GHz."

"The Importance of Wetlands\n\nby Lakis Polycarpou | June 9, 2010\n\nAs we continue to see ever-more disturbing images on the shores of Louisiana from the gulf oil spill, it’s worth thinking again about the immense ecological importance of wetlands and why they must be protected. ",
"Oil from the leak has already filtered up from the beaches into Louisiana’s coastal wetlands, killing wildlife there. ",
"Ironically, last May was American Wetlands Month.",
"\n\nSource: U.S. Coast Guard\n\nWhat are wetlands? ",
"The EPA describes them as “the vital link between the land and the water. ",
"They are transition zones where the flow of water, the cycling of nutrients, and the energy of the sun meet to produce a unique ecosystem.” ",
"Wetlands can be coastal or inland, saltwater, freshwater or brackish. ",
"In the United States they generally fall into four categories: marshes, swamps, bogs and fens.",
"\n\nWetlands have sometimes been called “nurseries of life” providing safe habitat for the young of many fish, crabs and other small creatures before they are old enough to venture into open waters. ",
"In addition, wetlands provide homes for an immense diversity of plants, amphibians, reptiles, mammals and migrating waterfowl.",
"\n\nSource: Martyn Negaro on Flickr\n\nAccording the U.S. Geological Survey, coastal wetlands are among the most productive ecosystems in the world, [PDF] and among the most vulnerable to climate-change related seawater rise. ",
"Loss of wetland habitats in the last thirty years has been a leading cause of species extinction.",
"\n\nAside from their inherent value to nature, what do wetlands do for us? ",
"Flood control (by acting as a “sponge” barrier to fast moving water), silt catching and erosion control (through the roots of wetland vegetation) are only a few of the most important functions. ",
"By acting as a sponge, wetlands also store water, absorbing it during the wet season and slowly releasing it during the dry season, mitigating the effect of drought.",
"\n\nLast but not least, wetlands purify water, through a symbiotic relationship between plant roots and periphyton—a complex of algae and microorganisms—that break down organic compounds. ",
"Natural wetlands are so good at cleaning water that they have become the model for inexpensive, cutting-edge waste management systems.",
"\n\nAll of which makes the current crisis in the gulf all the more tragic. ",
"According to most scientists, cleaning up oil in wetlands is much more difficult than on beaches. ",
"As Marc LaSalle, a Mississippi ecologist, told the Associated Press, “When the marshlands are not being mutilated by man, they’re pretty resilient . . . ",
"A healthy marsh can tolerate a hurricane; it’s natural. ",
"But an oil spill is not natural, and the marshes have never seen oil at this level. ",
"We just have to hope they can shut this thing off quickly.”",
"\n\nLouisiana wetlands seen from above. ",

"\nThese multiple access technologies have been adopted in various telecommunication standards to provide a common protocol that enables different wireless devices to communicate on a municipal, national, regional, and even global level. ",
"An example telecommunication standard is Long Term Evolution (LTE). ",
"LTE is a set of enhancements to the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) mobile standard promulgated by Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). ",
"LTE is designed to support mobile broadband access through improved spectral efficiency, lowered costs, and improved services using OFDMA on the downlink, SC-FDMA on the uplink, and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology. ",
"However, as the demand for mobile broadband access continues to increase, there exists a need for further improvements in LTE technology. ",
"These improvements may also be applicable to other multi-access technologies and the telecommunication standards that employ these technologies.",
"\nUser equipments (UEs) may need to transmit channel quality information (CQI) to base station so that base station can perform downlink scheduling. ",
"UEs with different signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) levels may have the capacity to transmit different number of CQI bits. ",
"For example, UEs that are located close to base station may transmit a higher number of CQI bits and UEs that are located at cell edge may transmit a lower number of CQI bits. ",
"If a fixed number of bits are used to transmit CQI, UEs with poor SNR may not be able to transmit CQI to the base station reliably."

"A synthetic amphipathic peptide, Val-Glu-Val-Orn-Val-Glu-Val-Orn-Val-Glu-Val-Orn-Val-OH is used as a test case. ",
"The pattern of Amide I frequencies suggests that the molecule is organized as an antiparallel beta-sheet at the air/water interface. ",
"The model used to simulate the Amide I intensities reveals that the beta-sheet has a slight preferential alignment parallel to the direction of compression; i.e., deviation from uniaxial symmetry is observed. ",
"In addition, the sheet is found to lie flat on the aqueous surface, with (presumably) the polar side chains interacting with the aqueous subphase. ",

"The predictive algorithms we chose are coming along fine. ",

"We formed a directed graph where each vertex is one of the 32 NFL teams. ",

"The edge is then weighted with the margin of victory(mov). ",
"The mov is the winner's score - the loser's score.",

"The Denver Broncos will make an appearance in Greeley in April, city employees filled 70,000 potholes last year and Greeley’s finance department is keeping a sharp eye on the oil and gas industry.",
"\n\nThose tidbits were among several discussed Tuesday by the Greeley City Council at its regularly scheduled work session. ",
"Members of the council heard a financial update for February, reviewed the Downtown Development Authority’s efforts in 2014 and heard an explanation of the city’s road conditions and street maintenance budget.",
"\n\nHere are eight things to know from the meeting.",
"\n\nFinancial report\n\n1 Greeley’s impact fee collections through the first two months of this year are up substantially over the same period in 2014, according to a report from the city’s finance department. ",

"Discrimination of large venous vessels in time-course spiral blood-oxygen-level-dependent magnetic-resonance functional neuroimaging.",
"\nA technique is described for discriminating blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal changes originating from large venous vessels and those that arise from the cortical parenchyma based on examining the temporal delay of each pixel's response. ",
"Photic stimulation experiments were performed with a conventional 1.5 T scanner and correlated each pixel's time-course with sine and cosine functions at the frequency of the stimulus. ",
"It was found that the signal in pixels anatomically associated with gray matter was delayed between 4 and 8 s compared with the stimulus, whereas the signal in pixels correlated with visible vessels and sulci was generally delayed from 8 to 14 s. This larger delay is consistent with the longer time required for blood to reach the larger vessels. ",
"Finally, stimulus-induced NMR phase changes were observed for the largest vessels, which are attributed to bulk susceptibility shifts."

"Introduction\n============\n\nMalignant mesothelioma is a highly aggressive tumor with poor prognosis ([@b1-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"It is commonly accepted that the development of malignant mesothelioma is closely associated with exposure to asbestos, radiation or simian virus 40 ([@b2-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"Because of the fact that asbestos has been used in thousands of products for a long time all over the world, and estimated latency period between exposure to asbestos and diagnosis of mesothelioma is 20--40 years, and it is expected that the incidence of malignant mesothelioma increases dramatically over the next couple of decades ([@b3-ijo-44-02-0377],[@b4-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"Malignant mesothelioma shows strong resistance to existing chemotherapy, irradiation therapy, and operative therapy and extremely poor prognosis with median survival and 5-year survival of \\<1 year and 1%, respectively ([@b5-ijo-44-02-0377],[@b6-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"Because the benefits of single-agent first-line or second-line chemotherapy are limited, the current standard of care for first-line chemotherapy is cisplatin and pemetrexed (a folate inhibitor), the only first-line therapy approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for patients ineligible for surgery ([@b7-ijo-44-02-0377]).",
"\n\nSialic acid binding lectin (SBL) isolated from *Rana catesbeiana* is a multifunctional protein that has lectin activity, ribonuclease activity and antitumor activity. ",
"SBL selectively agglutinates tumor cells but not normal cells ([@b8-ijo-44-02-0377]--[@b10-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"The selective effect of SBL on cancer cells is due to its selective binding to tumor cells, because sialidase treatment of cells abolished the tumor cell agglutination and anti-proliferative effect induced by SBL ([@b11-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"We previously reported the antitumor effect of SBL *in vitro* and *in vivo* ([@b11-ijo-44-02-0377]--[@b14-ijo-44-02-0377]), and the mechanism of SBL-inuduced apoptois was studied in human leukemia Jurkat cells ([@b15-ijo-44-02-0377],[@b16-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",

"TRAIL represents a promising candidate for the cancer therapy, because it causes apoptosis selectively to cancer cells ([@b18-ijo-44-02-0377],[@b19-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"There are members of receptors for TRAIL including death receptors (DRs), DR4 and DR5, mediating induction of apoptosis, and the decoy receptors (DcR), DcR1 and DcR2 which fail to induce apoptosis ([@b20-ijo-44-02-0377]--[@b22-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"The selectivity of TRAIL to cancer cells is attributed to the fact that cancer cells have been shown to highly express the death receptors, whereas normal cells highly express the DcRs. ",
"However, many tumor cells are resistant to TRAIL in clinical trials. ",
"It is suggested that the low efficiency of TRAIL receptor agonists was due to the induced resistance ([@b23-ijo-44-02-0377]--[@b26-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"Efforts have been made to overcome the resistance and to improve the efficacy of TRAIL. ",
"There are reports that the apoptosis induced by TRAIL is enhanced by some other reagents ([@b27-ijo-44-02-0377],[@b28-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"Bortezomib enhances the cytotoxity of TRAIL by increasing the expression of DR4 and DR5. ",
"We assessed the possibility that SBL is able to increase the expression of DR4 and DR5, and clarified that their expressions are not affected by SBL treatment ([Fig. ",
"4A](#f4-ijo-44-02-0377){ref-type=\"fig\"}). ",
"Engagement of death ligands to death receptors leads to activation of caspase-8, then activated caspase-8 transduces two different pathways dependent on cell types ([@b29-ijo-44-02-0377],[@b30-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"In one pathway the activated caspase-8 directly activates effector caspases such as caspase-3 ([@b31-ijo-44-02-0377],[@b32-ijo-44-02-0377]), in another pathway activated caspase-8 evokes mitochondrial perturbation through cleavage of Bid, and signal of apoptosis is amplified between caspase activation, mitochondria perturbation and Bid truncation ([@b33-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"Cell types can be distinguished between type I cells using the former pathway (SKW6.4, H9) or type II cells using the latter pathway (Jurkat, CEM) ([@b34-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"Etoposide was reported to sensitize malignant mesothelioma M28 cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis, and this synergic effect requires amplification of death signals by cleavege of Bid, suggesting that M28 cells belong to type II cells ([@b35-ijo-44-02-0377]). ",
"We investigated what the mediator of synergistic effect is between SBL and TRAIL. ",
"We found enhancement of apoptosis and mitochondrial depolarization in combination-treated H28 cells ([Figs. ",

"Our results also suggested that H28 cells belong to type II cells, because the cleavage of Bid enhances the apoptotic signals. ",
"Interestingly, Abayasiriwardana *et al* ([@b36-ijo-44-02-0377]) reported that anisomycin, a translation inhibitor, lowers threshold for mitochondrial perturbation through Bim, and suggested that the contribution of JNK for the stability of Bim. ",
"Nikrad *et al* ([@b37-ijo-44-02-0377]) and De Wilt *et al* ([@b38-ijo-44-02-0377]) reported that bortezomib sensitizes cells to killing by TRAIL through not only the increment of expression of DR4 and DR5 but also the regulation of expression of Bcl-2 family including Bik and Bim. ",
"In the case of SBL, we detected elevated expression of Bik and Bim in SBL-treated cells. ",

"More than a third of the city’s 21,000 Airbnb listings would disappear if the city’s short-term rental bylaws take effect. ",
"Those are the units operated by landlords with multiple listings that violate a key provision that would require hosts of short-term rentals to be the principal occupant of the home, according to the testimony of a McGill University researcher, who appeared before a tribunal considering an appeal of council’s approved rules.",
"\n\nPlanning professor David Wachsmuth, who holds a Canada Research Chair in Urban Governance, has led academic studies of the impact of Airbnb in several cities, including Toronto.",
"\n\nIt is impossible that landlords who rent out multiple homes or many individual rooms in a single home, or those who rent out an entire unit year round, are the principal residents of those housing units, he told the province’s Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT).",
"\n\nThey account for more than a third of the listings in Toronto and most of the $214 million a year in revenue by short-term rentals in the country’s largest market, said Wachsmuth.",
"\n\nThose commercial short-term landlords have grown from about a quarter of the total listings and a third of the revenue about two years ago.",
"\n\n“We have a lot of evidence to support the idea that we would still have a thriving short-term rental sector after the bylaws, but it would be one focused on casual home-sharing arrangements,” he said.",
"\n\nWithout talking to the landlords, it is impossible to know for sure how many long-term housing units have been lost to the short-term rental market, Wachsmuth told the tribunal.",
"\n\nBut he estimates that about 5,300 short-term rentals could be returned to the housing stock.",
"\n\nThat is based on the listings of 4,600 entire homes.",
"\n\nLess is known about how private rooms contribute to housing loss, he said.",
"\n\nBut a computer application that uses image-recognition to identify listings for single rooms that feature the same living area and common features is now shedding light on the issue of single rooms effectively been converted into a “ghost hostel.”",
"\n\n“We estimate there are 745 housing units in Toronto which have been subdivided this way. ",
"Because they have been subdivided, there are many more than 745 listings on Airbnb,” he said. “",
"We see a 25-per-cent-growth rate in this estimate of housing loss over the last year.”",
"\n\n“Returning these units to the long-term market would, in the short-term, roughly speaking, double the available (suuply) of vacant, for-rent aparments,” he said.",
"\n\n“In the long-term, that vacancy rate would not remain double, because those units would be absorbed into the rental market, and it’s also possible some of those would end up as owner-occupied housing, particularly the condo portion.”",
"\n\nAlthough he appeared at the tribunal as a witness for Fairbnb, a pro-regulation coalition of tenant advocates, the hotel industry and condo boards, Wachsmuth said he would not describe himself as “anti-Airbnb.”",
"\n\nLawyer Sarah Cormac, who represents landlord Alexis Leino, one of the operators who launched the LPAT appeal, and whose legal fees are being paid by Airbnb, asked if Wachsmuth would adopt Fairbnb’s statements generally.",
"\n\n“I couldn’t speak to all of them. ",
"I don’t know what they ar,e but I agree with you that I’m aware that it’s kind of implied in the name that they’re taking an oppositional stance there,” he said.",
"\n\nHe also stressed that his research is peer-reviewed and published in reputable planning journals.",
"\n\nWachsmuth says it is important that secondary suites be treated as the principal residence of a long-term tenant when it comes to renting them out for short-term stays.",
"\n\nLoading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading...\n\nIn a scenario where the regulations were approved, but an exception remained, for secondary suites, those units would become the only source of entire-home rentals on short-term accommodation platforms, he said.",
"\n\nWhole home rentals dominate the short-term rental market in Toronto and elsewhere, accounting for more than 90 per cent of the revenue earned, said Wachsmuth. ",
"He said there are enough home owners willing to rent their principal residence to fill the demand that would be vacated by those commercial rental operators.",
"\n\nThe LPAT hearings continue on Tuesday."

"The questionable significance of hip joint tamponade in producing osteonecrosis in Legg-Calvé-Perthes syndrome.",
"\nA possible mechanism for development of Legg-Calvé-Perthes syndrome following transient synovitis is the production of an effusion which acts as a tamponade of the intracapsular, subsynovial vessels to the femoral capital epiphysis. ",
"An intraarticular pressure of 150-200 mm Hg continuing for 10 to 12 h has been required to produce epiphyseal ischemia and subsequent osteonecrosis in animals. ",
"This study, on the hip of the immature pig, showed that an induced talcum synovitis did not increase intraarticular pressure. ",
"Autologous plasma was infused into synovitis-affected and normal hips to raise intraarticular pressures to 50, 100, and 200 mm Hg, respectively, in three groups of pigs. ",
"Decay of these joint pressures to 35 mm Hg occurred within a maximum of 132 min. ",
"This period is much less than the ischemia time required to cause osteocyte death. ",
"Decay of intraarticular pressure resulted from capsular stretching and efflux of the infusate from the joint. ",
"The data from this experiment do not support the theory that tamponade of the femoral capital epiphysis is the cause of osteonecrosis in Legg-Calvé-Perthes syndrome."

"In a case of deja vu, Nico Hulkenberg crashed out of fifth position in Baku. ",
"But his Renault boss Cyril Abiteboul is willing to accept such an error - if it's his only one this year.",
"\n\n“Carlos did a good race but Nico just made a mistake. ",
"He makes one a year and last year it was here as well!",
"\n\nTeam mate Carlos Sainz went on to finish in fifth as Azerbaijan again produced a dramatic and unpredictable Grand Prix, and reflecting on the race, Abiteboul said it was: “50% good!",
"\n\nLast year, Hulkenberg hit the wall at Turn 7 and was forced to retire on lap 25, missing out on potentially bigger points in a chaotic race. ",
"This time around it was a similar situation as Hulkenberg was again running fifth and struck the wall on the exit of Turn 4, going out on lap 10.",
"\n\nIf it's his only mistake this year, he will be more than forgiven\n\n“Nico had some misfortune, but it was his only mistake last year and if it has to be his only mistake again this year, he will be more than forgiven.”",
"\n\nAbiteboul’s lenient mood could perhaps be explained by the points return from Sainz, with the 10 scored on Sunday leaving Renault just one behind McLaren in the fight for fourth place in the constructors’ championship.",
"\n\n“We were not sure what to expect for this race, but fifth for Carlos is a great result, our best since returning to the sport two years ago.",
"\n\n\"We have to admit it came in exceptional circumstances, but it is very positive. ",
"Carlos drove a very mature race, managing his tyres well, and fighting with multiple cars throughout the race.",
"\n\n“It is very encouraging to look at how the grid has changed since last year. ",
"The gap to Red Bull, and from the Renault engine, to the rest of the field is obvious evidence of all the progress we have made and continue to make every weekend.",
"\n\n“Overall [it was] a very good weekend. ",
"As a team we scored another handful of points and more than McLaren, so the deficit is now very close as we head towards Europe.”",
"\n\nRenault are also sitting pretty in the drivers' standings ahead of the next round in Spain, with Sainz moving into the top 10 - he sits in P10 - while Hulkenberg remains seventh."

"Assessing clinical significance of treatment outcomes using the DASS-21.",
"\nStandard clinical significance classifications are based on movement between the \"dysfunctional\" and \"functional\" distributions; however, this dichotomy ignores heterogeneity within the \"dysfunctional\" population. ",
"Based on the methodology described by Tingey, Lambert, Burlingame, and Hansen (1996), the present study sought to present a 3-distribution clinical significance model for the 21-item version of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21; P. F. Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995) using data from a normative sample (n = 2,914), an outpatient sample (n = 1,000), and an inpatient sample (n = 3,964). ",
"DASS-21 scores were collected at pre- and post-treatment for both clinical samples, and patients were classified into 1 of 5 categories based on whether they had made a reliable change and whether they had moved into a different functional range. ",
"Evidence supported the validity of the 3-distribution model for the DASS-21, since inpatients who were classified as making a clinically significant change showed lower symptom severity, higher perceived quality of life, and higher clinician-rated functioning than those who did not make a clinically significant change. ",
"Importantly, results suggest that the new category of recovering is an intermediate point between recovered and making no clinically significant change. ",
"Inpatients and outpatients have different treatment goals and therefore use of the concept of clinical significance needs to acknowledge differences in what constitutes a meaningful change."

"The Commons: What The Opening Will Mean for Students\n\nThe construction of the new Commons building on campus has been in progress for almost two years. ",
"The construction began in late 2016, and is projected to continue into 2019.",
"\n\nOn November 7, UBC emailed out its bi-monthly newsletter, UBCO Life, and announced the expected opening date for the Commons building. ",
"The building is expected to open on January 2, the first day of the new term.",
"\n\nThe new building is anticipated to address some of the space issues on campus. ",
"In the last year, there have not been new study spaces added to campus, but there are 800 more students on campus this year than last. ",
"The new building is anticipated to have roughly 600 new informal study spaces, as well as a 400-person tiered lecture hall to address the increasing size of classes with the increase of students.",
"\n\nThere has been confusion surrounding the opening date for the Commons building. ",
"Initially, the project was projected to take roughly a year and a half, making the original completing planned for the summer of 2018. ",
"However, the construction has been delayed by several months, making the actual timeline for the project two years.",
"\n\nPhoto by Lauren St. Clair.",
"\n\nWhen asked about the reason for the six-month delay in the opening of the building, Nathan Skolski, the Associate Director of Public Affairs for UBC Okanagan, provided three of the major reasons behind the delay. ",
"At the start of the project, there were “challenges with relocation of underground services.” ",
"There were also delays related to the “severe winter weather during critical points in the construction process,” as well as “a booming construction market in the Okanagan which limited trades availability and delayed material supply.”",
"\n\nThe delayed opening has largely impacted student life on campus. ",
"Many students, specifically anyone who has ever walked by the construction, is aware of the noise it brings. ",
"For some students, the library is no longer a place they can study due to the noise, and classes nearby are sometimes disrupted as well.",
"\n\nHeather Berringer, Chief Librarian at the Okanagan campus, remarked, however, that “on a positive note, we have received very few complaints about noise or construction activities; these have been very well managed, with noisy work being communicated to us in advance. ",
"When we know there will be disruptions, we do our best to communicate these to students.”",
"\n\nAlmost every student who shared thoughts about the delayed opening mentioned the impact of study spaces. ",
"One student remarks that the student population is growing while the space for them is not.",
"\n\nWithout the increased study spaces, finding a spot to work between classes, or even just to sit is incredibly difficult. ",
"One student stated that the library is so packed she can’t even find a computer to print anymore, and the only available places to sit are the quiet study spaces, meaning you can’t study with friends.",
"\n\nPhoto by Lauren St. Clair.",
"\n\nThis sentiment is echoed by the notices posted in the library on tables brought in for extra space. ",
"The notices read that the staff understand the need for more space and so have provided the extra tables. ",
"Berringer states, “the Library has tried to prioritize any opportunity to add seats to the building, whether it was in finding additional tables and chairs to add to the main floor or utilizing spaces like the Writing and Research Centre, which we will repurpose during the exam period to provide extra quiet study space. ",
"For us, this has been about trying to find any and all possibilities to creatively support students until the Commons opens.”",
"\n\nYet, even these small efforts have not solved the issue. ",
"In the most intense story shared about the delayed opening, one student shared a time when she looked for a spot for 40 minutes, and by the time she located one, she barely had time to open her books before her next class. ",
"The students nearby at this time nodded in agreement, with one saying “sometimes it forces me to study during lectures, because I know I need to do it, and right then I have a place to sit, since I don’t know if I will find a spot, or how long it will take to find a spot after class.”",
"\n\nUnfortunately, the student impact will continue until January 2, when The Commons is projected to open. ",
"Hopefully, as campus staff become more aware of the impact. ",
"For now, students will need to adjust and work where they can, and look forward to the opening."

"Brutus Rating: 3/10 daggers in the back\n\nPairs well with: A high dose of soma and a full complement of your water rations, you lucky worker, you!",
"\n\nEuphoria represents the misery farmers’ first expedition into the exciting world of Kickstarting board games, and it’s pretty clear why this board game was so successful at getting funded. ",
"Dystopian theme? ",
"Say no more, we’re sold. ",
"Fetch the people-zapper and the keys to The Courthouse of Hasty Judgment, it’s time to oppress some workers. ",
"Or ‘liberate’ them or something (we need to work on our spin, guys).",
"\n\nBefore we dive in head-first to a review, allow us five minutes of just drooling over these gold bricks:\n\nHaving the beautiful Kickstarter edition of the game has definitely proved to be a good idea. ",
"It gets us these super-neat, extra-nice resources, amongst other things. ",
"The gold bricks are really shiny, and satisfyingly weighty! ",
"For a while when our friends came over we would literally just drag them over to the board game cupboard to show them how nice the pieces were. ",
"Our fellow board-gaming friends, that is, obviously not our normal friends. ",
"Board games? ",
"What? ",
"Us? ",
"Nah! ",
"Let’s all uh, grab a beer and watch a sport, woo!",
"\n\nIn a move which makes you think “why didn’t I think of this first and make my millions this way?”, ",
"the game designers also sell these and a bunch of other neat-looking resources separately to spruce up some of your board game collection. ",
"They know their audience, and it’s people who are fascinated by weighty gold bricks. (",
"Us!)",
"\n\nRight! ",
"Enough showing-off about the really nice game pieces. ",
"Wait …\n\n…ok, now that’s enough guys.",
"\n\nWhatever level of the game you buy, Euphoria has some really alluring qualities. ",
"Mostly, of course, there’s the theme, which is both inspired and well-executed. ",
"Also let’s face it, when you’re trying to convince your novice game buddies that board games really are super-cool and that they should totally play with you then you’re more likely to have some luck with “this really cool dystopian-themed worker placement game, in which you oppress your workers and can’t let them get too smart or they’ll realise what you’re doing them and escape” than “this worker placement game in which you … run a farm! ",
"Yeah no really guys, farming board games are great fun, I have like six… hey, where are you going? ",
"Guys?”",
"\n\nI mean, it’s not that a lot of people aren’t going to love that kind of thing, it’s just that those aren’t really the people who you need to put effort in to lure into the board gaming world. ",
"Those are the kinds of friends who are already excited to queue for the latest Uwe Rosenberg game with you or the ones who keep trying to trick you into playing 1853 again. (",
"EIGHT HOURS! ",
"EIGHT. ",
"SODDING. ",
"HOURS. ",
"We love an eight hour game in principle but waiting twenty minutes between turns is… aaaaah!)",
"\n\nSo yeah, Euphoria’s theme will make it stand out from some of your other games. ",
"The afore-mentioned feature of worker intelligence being bad for you is a particularly good expression of it. ",
"Your workers are dice, and the number on the dice will have some limited effect on how you can use that worker. ",
"The general idea is that a six is pretty canny but a one is quite a few apples short of a wasteland farm. ",
"Your overall worker intelligence is tracked elsewhere on the board by numbers 1-6, and if you’re retrieving all your workers and roll their total (plus that number) to be higher than 16? ",
"Uh oh! ",
"Your workers have been colluding! ",
"THAT SMART ONE IS ESCAPING! ",
"THEY’VE LEARNED TO THINK FOR THEMSELVES! ",
"GET THE ZAPPER!",
"\n\nIn real (game) terms this means you get one less worker and one unhappy Lizzy, who has only just saved up enough lightning bolts to zap that worker into activation in the first place! ",
"Who let all these workers at the books? ",
"Don’t they know that freedom lies in slavery?",
"\n\nAnother way in which the game beautifully manifests its theme is the randomized set of buildings that you’ll be able to construct. ",
"It’s amazing how much more fun you can have building ‘The Center for Reduced Literacy’ or ‘The Free Press of Harsh Reality’ rather than just ‘another flipping corn farm’. ",
"The same goes for your recruits (different from your workers), with names such as Curtis the Propagandist, Julia the Thought Inspector and Jefferson the Shock Artist.",
"\n\nVictory in the game is earned by getting rid of all ten of your star tokens and spreading your delicious influence all across the metaphorical dystopian toast. (",
"Dys…toastpia? ",
"Or is that spreading it a bit thin?) ",
"This can be done a number of ways including building these exciting buildings, playing your ‘ethical dilemma’ cards a certain way (“ ‘Help a friend escape or turn in a friend?’ ",
"I don’t think this game understands what an ethical dilemma is”) and just generally spurting your workers and resources at the sections of the board which have a nice handy star on them.",
"\n\nThe different range of options for your workers can be a little overwhelming at first, particularly for newer players, and it can take a while to get the hang of what it is you’re supposed to be doing. ",
"There are four areas of the dystopia and most of them are fairly symmetrical but with different resources (except the bloody Icarites, they do whatever the shit they like. ",
"LET’S MINE A CLOUD FOR HAPPINESS!)",
"\n\nBasically you want to vacuum up some regular resources and then pump them up into being relics or bigger, shinier resources, both of which you can then end up splashing on some delicious victory star-spurting. ",
"It’s not a game with a lot of different paths to victory, so it doesn’t have that same rush of different possibilities opening up in front of you like other games can, but it’s still good.",
"\n\nIt’s also mildly difficult at times to keep track of all of the things you’re supposed to be keeping track of:\n\n“Oh, balls! ",
"Wasn’t I supposed to be paying some penalty every time I roll a one now because I didn’t contribute to building that diss-assemble a teddy bear factory?”",
"\n\n“Err, how long have I had four cards in my hand? ",
"My workers’ morale is far too low for this… you saw nothing, guys.”",
"\n\n“DAMMIT GUYS WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME WE REMEMBERED TO LOSE MORALE FOR RETRIEVING WORKERS?”",
"\n\nAlthough we’re not necessarily saying that this is a criticism of the game rather than just a criticism of our own competence.",
"\n\nOne more neat and unusual point of the game is the aforementioned worker retrieval method, which differs from most other worker-placements. ",
"There’s no set ‘end of a round’ where everyone scoops back their dice at the same time. ",
"Instead, you can choose to lower your worker’s morale (morale, unlike intelligence, is something you actually want your workers to have) or pay a penalty to increase it, and then retrieve as many of your dice as you like on your turn. ",
"It makes the turns more fluid than a trip to the Subterran Aquifer.",
"\n\nThe game earns a ‘brutus rating’ of 3/10, because there’s not too much in the way of screwing over of the other players, which can be refreshing, particularly if you’re playing with us. ",
"Having said that, there’s still a little space to gang up on someone *cough Lizzy cough* by all building a shiny building without her, meaning she has to suffer some penalties for a while until she fixes it.",
"\n\nIn today’s adventure Dr Photographer won the game. ",
"About time too, probably. ",
"Lizzy was stunted pretty early on by some damn smart workers, and the other participants just couldn’t wrangle enough shiny things.",
"\n\nThe real winner is oppression. ",
"DOWN WITH THE PEOPLE! ",
"Ahem.",
"\n\nCredit to our fellow oppressor Dr Photographer for the photos!"

"Tag: cursive writing\n\nWe started the journey into multiplication and cursive writing. ",
"It is a pretty cool thing when your child asks to learn a subject. ",
"Sebastian’s curiosity with learning to write in cursive could no longer be held back, so we jumped right in.",
"\n\nI have noticed that as he learns and excels on a topic, this builds confidence. ",
"That confidence pumps up his self-esteem which in turn gives him the self-motivation and desire to learn and ‘own’ the next topic. ",
"It seems to just be continuing to feed on itself. ",
"Allowing him space and time to absorb the material as it comes naturally seems to be key in this confidence building.",
"\n\nSebastian finished his replica of ‘Loneliness in Autumn’ just in time to give to me for Christmas. ",
"We had it framed and now it hangs in a prominent place in our home! ",
"I could NOT love it more! ",
"The final piece was framed in white and is 24″ x 36″.\n\nAdditionally at Zhen art this month, they made ‘printing pads’. ",
"They carved reverse images in the rubber mat and then stamped them onto heavyweight card stock. ",
"Sebastian made snowflake decorated cards that said ‘The Prescott’s’.",
"\n\nWe attended ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ at the Dallas Children’s Theater. ",
"This was a sweet way to start December. ",
"The actors moved all around the stage and auditorium on ‘ice skates’ (roller blades) so it was a fun to be in the middle of the action.",
"\n\nWe had our monthly rollerskating date at Thunderbird Roller Rink and Sebastian got an early Christmas gift, Cardiff skates that clip on to his tennis shoes. ",
"What is lovely about these skates is that they can expand in size from a boy’s 12 to 5 (or girl’s 12 to 6). ",
"They are quick and easy to get on and off too! ",
"Bonus! ",
"There was a little adjustment to getting used to skating in them since the design is slightly different on 3 wheels, but it wasn’t long before he got the hang of it. ",
"While these are called ‘street skates’ they were allowed at the roller rink and we decided since they can be fast, we will restrict their use to the rink. ",
"Now since Sebastian has really gotten into skating and isn’t going to use these on the street, we decided to look at tennis shoes with the wheel also know was ‘Heely’s’. ",
"We decided on these since they also offer the light-up feature. ",
"He is normally a size 2 and I went with a size 3. ",
"They fit more like a 2.5, so I’m glad I sized up. ",
"We also did not install the 2nd optional wheel. ",
"I may let him on occasion for fun, but not when we are using them as everyday shoes. ",
"We also pulled the laces and put in bands similar to these, but ours were (and can be purchased) from Learning Express, too.",
"\n\nTechie factory has a new teacher, Mess! ",
"She is awesome!! ",
"Sebastian has been a coding fool. ",
"We have plans for him to attend Techie Factory’s weekend 3-D printing camp. ",
"This is something Sebastian has been asking to learn about so what a great opportunity! ",
"He will be studying a printer like this one. ",
"We will report back on the printer and camp in a few weeks.",
"\n\nMore good times at the Microsoft store in Northpark Mall. ",
"A new group of puzzles for the Minecraft Hour of Code Tutorials came out and the group had a great time getting through them. ",
"On this day and evening (Dec 7th) that we were at Northpark the Dallas Symphony Orchestra played in the mall and it was AMAZING! ",
"Next year, I’ll be sure to look at the mall’s line up of holiday entertainment to plan to attend.",
"\n\nThis month’s art class at the Dallas Museum of Art was all about families. ",
"Jennifer and the kids talked about families and looked at families in other cultures, specifically African nations. ",
"Afterwards, as a family, we worked on panels to represent our family. ",
"We used the eagle, trident, and P to represent our family. ",
"Our friend Florian used flags (Romanian and United States) and family initials to represent his family. ",
"We used a technique to paint where you could only use dots to make your image, Pointillism.",
"\n\nAfter class, the boys had an empty DMA kid’s area to play in (Homeschool perk! ",
"Weekday public spaces are typically empty!!!) ",
"Afterwards the temperatures were moderate which allowed us to get lunch at the food trucks across from Klyde Warren Park. ",
"We were able to enjoy the park for almost 3 hours on this lovely afternoon. ",
"The boy’s soaked in every minute of playtime and green space. ",
"Win!",
"\n\nWe attended this event called, The Compassion Experience. ",
"Here is what it is about, “Visitors will be given headsets and invited on an audio-guided journey through wheelchair-accessible and kid-friendly exhibit space, featuring replicas of the homes and environments of real children who have grown up under the weight of extreme poverty. ",
"Visitors will journey with the children from poverty to hope and will experience new countries and cultures along the way. ",
"Guests will hear the child’s life story through headphones, as told by professional voice actors in an immersive experience. ",
"The stories featured are all true and told with permission and direction from the Compassion-sponsored children who lived them.”",
"\n\nOver the month we celebrated birthdays, had dinners with friends, wore Christmas jammies and counted the days until TONIGHT! ",
"All my gifts are wrapped, Santa’s cookie plate is out and Sebastian is dreaming of sugar plums. ",
"I could not be more grateful for all the experiences and new friends homeschooling has brought into my life. ",
"All it takes is time and patience the rest gets filled in along the way. ",
"If homeschooling has been calling you, then take the leap in 2018! ",
"You will never regret spending more time raising, teaching, mentoring and guiding YOUR child. ",
"Merry Christmas! ",

"We assessed each outbreak to identify risk factors and propose a framework for prevention and impact mitigation. ",
"Seven out of ten countries in eastern Africa and three islands in the Indian Ocean have experienced dengue outbreaks between 1823 and 2014. ",
"Major risk factors associated with past dengue outbreaks include climate, virus and vector genetics and human practices. ",
"Appropriate use of dengue diagnostic tools and their interpretation are necessary for both outbreak investigations and sero-epidemiological studies. ",
"Serosurvey findings during inter-epidemic periods have not been adequately utilised to prevent re-occurrence of dengue outbreaks. ",
"Local weather variables may be used to predict dengue outbreaks, while entomological surveillance can complement other disease-mitigation efforts during outbreaks and identify risk-prone areas during inter-epidemic periods. ",
"The limitations of past dengue outbreak responses and the enormous socio-economic impacts of the disease on human health are highlighted. ",
"Its repeated occurrence in East Africa refutes previous observations that susceptibility may depend on race. ",
"Alternate hypotheses on heterotypic protection among flaviviruses may not be applied to all ecologies. ",
"Prevention and mitigation of severe dengue outbreaks should necessarily consider the diverse factors associated with their occurrence. ",
"Implementation of phased dengue mitigation activities can enforce timely and judicious use of scarce resources, promote environmental sanitation, and drive behavioural change, hygienic practices and community-based vector control. ",

"The first is the general recognition that education in American government-run, tax-funded schools are dysfunctional at best. ",
"The second is that while the level of technology and the focused task-orientation of the curriculum is probably better than the curriculum model they replaced, they still do not teach students how to think, how to discern, how to problem-solve, how to understand the world in which they live. ",
"Thus, the reforms Microsoft has attempted are starting in the right direction, but they will inevitably fall short. ",

"\n\nOPINION AND ORDER REGARDING THE PARTIES' CROSS-MOTIONS FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT\nROSEN, District Judge.",
"\n\nI. INTRODUCTION\n\nThis case presents the ironic, and unfortunate, paradox of a public high school celebrating \"diversity\" by refusing to permit the presentation to students of an \"unwelcomed\" viewpoint on the topic of *783 homosexuality and religion, while actively promoting the competing view. ",
"This practice of \"one-way diversity,\" unsettling in itself, was rendered still more troubling both constitutionally and ethically by the fact that the approved viewpoint was, in one manifestation, presented to students as religious doctrine by six clerics (some in full garb) quoting from religious scripture. ",
"In its other manifestation, it resulted in the censorship by school administrators of a student's speech about \"what diversity means to me,\" removing that portion of the speech in which the student described the unapproved viewpoint.",
"\nAll of this, of course, raises the question, among others presented here, of what \"diversity\" means and whether a school may promote one view of \"diversity\" over another. ",
"Even accepting that the term \"diversity\" has evolved in recent years to mean, at least colloquially, something more than the dictionary definition, the notion of sponsorship of one viewpoint to the exclusion of another hardly seems to further the school's purported objective of \"celebrating diversity.\" ",
"In this context, it would do well to recall the Supreme Court's admonition in another school speech case:\nIn our system, state-operated schools may not be enclaves of totalitarianism... [and] students may not be regarded as closed-circuit recipients of only that which the State chooses to communicate. ",

"\n\nPIONEER HIGH SCHOOL'S \"DIVERSITY WEEK\"\nFor at least ten years, Pioneer High School has been holding a \"Diversity Week.",
"\"[4] Traditionally, the week's activities include a general assembly program, panel discussions on race, religion and sexual orientation, an \"open mic\" session during lunch hour, and a number of multi-cultural activities involving music and food. ",
"The panel discussions are held during class time in the PHS \"Little Theater,\" and teachers sign up to bring their classes to hear the discussions.[5]\nDiversity Week 2002 was held March 18-22. ",
"The week's events were organized by the Student Council under the supervision of faculty advisor, Sunnie Korzdorfer. ",
"Tom Jensen, Student Council President in 2002, testified in his deposition that with regard to the choice of events and any decisions that had to be made with regard to the running and organization of Diversity Week, the Student Council had to obtain the approval of Ms. Korzdorfer. [",

"\n\nTHE \"HOMOSEXUALITY AND RELIGION\" PANEL\nAlthough in previous years, the Student Council organized all of the panel discussions, because in 2002 the Council had decided to add a number of new activities to the week's events, Ms. Korzdorfer and Student Council President Tom Jensen decided that it was going to be difficult for them to plan all of the activities. ",
"Therefore, the decision was made to solicit other student organizations to assist with organizing the panels. ",
"E-mails were sent to club advisors. ",
"The only club to respond to the Student Council's invitation was the Gay/Straight Alliance. ",
"The GSA asked if it could run the sexual orientation panel. ",
"Ms. Korzdorfer agreed, and turned over entirely the sponsorship and administration of this panel to the GSA and its co-sponsors, Parker Pennington and Rodney Mancini.[6] [See Parker Pennington Dep. ",

"The Student Council retained responsibility for the race and religion panels, along with its responsibility for the other Diversity Week activities.",
"\nTraditionally, the panels presenting the three race, religion, and sexual orientation panel discussions were composed of PHS *785 students and this was the anticipated format when Diversity Week 2002 was being planned. ",
"In fact, the Student Council continued with the student-composed panel format with the \"race\" and \"religion\" panels that it organized.",
"\nThe Gay/Straight Alliance, however, decided to change both the composition and the format of the panel that it was organizing. ",
"First, instead of presenting a panel discussion on \"sexual orientation,\" the GSA decided to change the panel's topic to \"Religion and Homosexuality.\" ",
"Second, the GSA decided that, instead of having PHS students as presenters, its \"Religion and Homosexuality\" panel would be composed of adult religious leaders from the Ann Arbor community. ",
"Parker Pennington, the GSA's faculty advisor, testified in his deposition that the decision was made to have adult religious leaders as presenters instead of students because the club \"want[ed] to have people who could speak with some authority on some of the more technical aspects of things.\" [",
"Pennington Dep., ",
"p. 88.] ",
"Pennington explained that by \"technical aspects,\" he meant:\nA: Instead of personal belief actually being able to make reference to religious documents and that sort of thing that people would have studied extensively as opposed to a less learned approach maybe that students might have.",
"\nQ: And religious documents are you referring to, for example, the Bible?",
"\nA: That would be one such document, yes.",
"\nId. at 88-89.",
"\nPennington said that the GSA had noted from several previous sexual orientation panel discussions, that a lot of the more controversial aspects revolved around people's religious backgrounds and religious objections to homosexuality. ",
"Therefore, he and the club members decided that \"it would be best not to have kids discuss... but to have biblical scholars or people trained in a more scholarly way to deal with the [] complex nature of the interpretations of various passages of various [religious] documents....\" Id. at 157.",
"\nPennington testified that to come up with a list of the adults to invite to be panel members on the Homosexuality and Religion panel, Pennington gave Jeremy O'Brien, the GSA club member who was working on the Diversity Week program, a copy of Pride Source, a guidebook for gay and lesbian resources in the State of Michigan, which included a listing of churches. ",
"Id. at 90. ",
"This listing was supplemented with names which Rodney Mancini, co-sponsor of the GSA, obtained from his minister, Rev. John Nieman of St. Andrews Episcopal Church. [",
"Mancini Dep., ",

"14-17.] ",
"According to Mancini, his minister \"is very gay friendly\" and his input was sought because he would \"add a positive perspective\" on homosexuality and religion. ",
"Id. at p. 138. ",
"Pennington explained the purpose of having gay friendly religious leaders as presenters: \"Messages of religious disapproval are common on the radio and television and in print. ",
"This panel [was] specifically designed to offer a more welcoming message.\" ",
"Id. at 91. ",
"The members of the panel were selected \"because the institutions they represent were welcoming and affirming\" with regard to homosexuality. ",

"Id. Jensen testified that Betsy Hansen attended this initial brain-storming meeting. ",

"Jensen testified that he took the idea to the Student Council faculty advisor, Sunnie Korzdorfer, who told Jensen that they would follow up in February to see if Betsy and Jeremy were still interested. ",

"At some point in early February, Jensen said he did again broach the subject with Betsy and Jeremy who each told him that they would communicate with their respective organizations, the Pioneers for Christ and the Gay/Straight Alliance. ",

"Id.\nOn February 22, 2002, the Student Council held a \"mandatory\" meeting for students interested in being on the religion or sexual orientation panels. ",

"562.",
"\nPlaintiffs argue that the speech at issue here should be treated as student speech governed by Tinker. ",
"Defendants counter that the disputed speech should be categorized as either government speech or \"school sponsored\"/Hazelwood speech.[19]\nPlaintiffs argue for application of the Tinker standard contending that because it was the students' \"personal message\" of opposition to the war in Vietnam expressed by their wearing of black armbands that Tinker protected, so too, should the same standard be used to afford First Amendment protection to Betsy Hansen's *794 \"personal message\" of \"what diversity means to me.\" ",
"Plaintiffs similarly argue that Tinker should apply in assessing the schools' denial of representation of Betsy's viewpoint on the Homosexuality and Religion panel relying upon the Tinker Court's broad pronouncement that public school students \"may not be confined to the expression of those sentiments that are officially approved.\" ",

"In making their arguments, however, Plaintiffs ignore the distinct context of Betsy's school assembly speech and the Homosexuality and Religion panelneither the assembly nor the panel constituted personal expression that just \"happen[ed] to occur on the school premises.\" ",
"Instead, the Diversity Week speaking events at issue were specifically and particularly planned by student groups with their faculty advisors and were approved by school administrationthey did not just \"happen to occur\" in the school, but rather occurred at school-sponsored forums.",
"\nBut, neither is the speech here \"government speech,\" as argued by Defendants. ",
"In support of their argument that the Homosexuality and Religion panel constitutes \"government speech,\" Defendants rely principally on Downs v. Los Angeles Unified Sch. ",
"Dist., ",
"supra. ",
"Downs, however, is factually quite distinct.",
"\nAt issue in Downs was a school's refusal to permit an individual teacher to post anti-homosexuality materials in response to the Los Angeles Unified School District's \"Gay and Lesbian Awareness Month\" posters and materials which were provided by the central office to schools within the district and posted on a school bulletin board which, pursuant to actual practice and policy, was under the direct control and oversight of the school principal. ",
"Because it was the school district itself that provided the Gay and Lesbian Awareness Month posters and materials to the high school, and because they were posted on a bulletin board that was under the direct control and oversight of the school principal, the court found that the \"speaker\" of the bulletin board was the school itselfan arm of local government. ",
"And, because the government itself was speaking, the court concluded that the case fell within the government speech rules which allowed it to impose viewpoint-based restrictions. ",
"The Downs court explained:\nThis case is not controlled by Hazelwood or Planned Parenthood [v. Clark County Sch. ",
"Dist., ",
"941 F.2d 817 (9th Cir. ",
"1991)] because it is a case of the government itself speaking, whether the government is characterized as Leichman High, LAUSD, or the school board. ",
"It is not a case involving the risk that a private individual's private speech might simply \"bear the imprimatur\" of the school or be perceived by outside individuals as \"school sponsored.\"",
"\n* * * * * *\nAn arm of local governmentsuch as a school boardmay decide not only to talk about gay and lesbian awareness and tolerance in general, but also to advocate such tolerance if it so decides, and restrict the contrary speech of one of its representatives.",
"\n941 F.2d at 1011, 1014.[20]\nHere, by contrast, it was clearly not the school itself speaking at the general assembly about \"what diversity means to me\" or at the Homosexuality and Religion panel. ",
"Indeed, not a single school administrator or teacher conveyed any viewpoint or message at either forum. ",
"At the general assembly, it was studentsnot any *795 teacher or administratorwho spoke on \"what diversity means to me.\" ",
"Similarly, clergymen from outside the school presented their respective congregations' views on homosexuality at the Homosexuality and Religion panel. ",
"In fact, the record evidence indicates that it was precisely because of their position as religious clergy that they were invited to participate on the panel. ",
"It is, therefore, clear to the Court that this speech was not \"government speech\" but rather was speech that might simply \"bear the imprimatur\" of the school or be perceived by outside individuals as \"school sponsored\" by virtue of it having occurred at a school-sponsored forum. ",
"Therefore, it is governed by Hazelwood.",

"denied, 493 U.S. 1021, 110 S.Ct. ",
"723, 107 L.Ed.2d 742 (1990), is illustrative of the circumstances which render speech in a school setting \"school sponsored\" speech. ",
"In Poling, the Sixth Circuit found that a \"campaign\" speech made by a public high school student who was running for student council president at a school assembly constituted \"school-sponsored\" speech within the meaning of Hazelwood. ",
"In that case, school officials scheduled the assembly to be held during school hours and on school property, made attendance compulsory for everyone, determined the eligibility of prospective speakers, and vetted the candidates' speeches in advance.",
"\nLike the student council assembly in Poling, the Diversity Week 2002 general assembly and panel discussions were held during school hours and on school property, and presentations were made by people who were neither teachers nor school administrators. ",
"Further, as in Poling, school officials determined the eligibility of the speakers and with respect to the general assembly they also vetted the \"What Diversity Means to Me\" speeches before they were given. ",
"Therefore, it is the Hazelwood standards that are applicable in analyzing Plaintiffs' freedom of speech claim in this case.",
"\n\nHAZELWOOD\nHazelwood involved a high school principal's decision to delete two pages from a school newspaper which contained two stories: one described three Hazelwood students' experiences with pregnancy and the other discussed the impact of divorce on students at the school which identified by name a particular student and her mother and father and contained negative statements concerning the student's parents. ",
"The school newspaper was written and edited by the Journalism II class at Hazelwood East High School. ",
"The practice at Hazelwood was for the journalism teacher to submit page proofs for each issue of the school newspaper to the principal for review prior to publication. ",
"The principal was concerned that, although the pregnancy story used false names in an attempt to keep the girls' identities secret, because very few students at the school were pregnant, he believed that the girls could still be identified from the text.",
"\nIt was because of his concern about invading the privacy rights of the students mentioned and the parents named in the divorce story that the principal ordered the two pages containing the pregnancy and divorce stories deleted. ",
"Three Hazelwood students who were on the school newspaper staff subsequently brought suit alleging that the principal, the journalism teacher and various other school officials violated their First Amendment rights by deleting the two pages of articles from the newspaper.",
"\nThe Supreme Court first rejected the students' argument that the school newspaper constituted a public forum such that they had an unfettered right to say whatever they wanted to say in whatever manner they chose. ",
"Rather, just as the Court *796 had found in Tinker, the Hazelwood court reaffirmed that the school setting presents a \"nonpublic forum\" 484 U.S. at 270, 108 S.Ct. ",
"at 569. ",
"The Court then proceeded, however, to reject application of the Tinker standard, explaining:\nThe question whether the First Amendment requires a school to tolerate particular student speechthe question that we addressed in Tinkeris different from the question whether the First Amendment requires a school affirmatively to promote particular student speech. ",
"The former question addresses educators' ability to silence a student's personal expression that happens to occur on the school premises. ",
"The latter question concerns educators' authority over school-sponsored publications, theatrical productions, and other expressive activities that students, parents and members of the public might reasonably perceive to bear the imprimatur of the school. ",
"These activities may fairly be characterized as part of the school curriculum, whether or not they occur in a traditional classroom setting, so long as they are supervised by faculty members and designed to impart particular knowledge or skills to student participants and audiences.",
"\nId. at 270-71, 108 S.Ct. ",
"at 569-570.",
"\nThe Court then delineated a standard to be applied to such \"school sponsored\" speech:\n... [W]e conclude that the standard articulated in Tinker for determining when a school may punish student expression need not also be the standard for determining when a school may refuse to lend its name and resources to the dissemination of student expression. ",
"Instead, we hold that educators do not offend the First Amendment by exercising editorial control over the style and content of student speech in school-sponsored expressive activities so long as their actions are reasonably related to pedagogical concerns.",
"\n\nId. at 271-72, 108 S.Ct. ",
"at 570-71 (emphasis added).",
"\nApplying this new standard, the Court concluded that Principal Robert Reynolds acted reasonably in requiring the deletion of the pregnancy and divorce articles. ",
"The Court reasoned:\nThe initial paragraph of the pregnancy article declared that \"[a]ll names have been changed to keep the identity of these girls a secret.\" ",
"The principal concluded that the students' anonymity was not adequately protected, however, given the other identifying information in the article and the small number of pregnant students at the school. ",
"Indeed, a teacher at the school credibly testified that she could positively identify at least one of the girls and possibly all three. ",
"It is likely that many students at Hazelwood East would have been at least as successful in identifying the girls. ",
"Reynolds therefore could reasonably have feared that the article violated whatever pledge of anonymity had been given to the pregnant students. ",
"In addition, he could reasonably have been concerned that the article was not sufficiently sensitive to the privacy interests of the students' boyfriends and parents who were discussed in the article but who were given no opportunity to consent to its publication or to offer a response. ...",
"\nThe student who was quoted by name in the version of the divorce article seen by Principal Reynolds made comments sharply critical of her father. ",
"The principal could reasonably have concluded that an individual publicly identified as an inattentive parent... was entitled to the opportunity to defend himself as a matter of journalistic fairness....\nIn sum, we cannot reject as unreasonable Principal Reynolds' conclusion that *797 neither the pregnancy article nor the divorce article was suitable for publication in Spectrum. ",
"Reynolds could reasonably have concluded that the students who had written and edited these articles had not sufficiently mastered those portions of the Journalism II curriculum that pertained to the treatment of controversial issues and personal attacks, the need to protect the privacy of individuals whose most intimate concerns are to be revealed in the newspaper, and the legal, moral and ethical restrictions imposed upon journalists within a school community that includes adolescent subjects and readers.... Accordingly, no violation of First Amendment rights occurred.",
"\nId. at 274-276, 108 S.Ct. ",
"at 571-572 (citations and some internal punctuation omitted).",
"\nTherefore, under Hazelwood, Defendants here were certainly entitled to some degree of editorial control over the school-supervised programs so long as their actions in exercising that control were reasonably related to legitimate pedagogical concerns.",
"\nDefendants maintain that four pedagogical concerns animated their actions regarding Betsy Hansen's speech and her requests regarding the Homosexuality and Religion panel: (1) teaching students to stay on topic; (2) teaching students to follow proper procedures; (3) making students aware of minority points of view; and (4) creating a safe and supportive environment for gay and lesbian students. ",
"Defendants argue that because their actions with respect to Betsy's general assembly speech and her request to have a representative on the Homosexuality and Religion panel to communicate her message were motivated by legitimate pedagogical concerns, the rule of Hazelwood dictates that Plaintiffs' freedom of speech claim must fail.",
"\nHowever, putting aside for the moment the legitimacy of Defendants' proffered pedagogical concerns, Defendants overlook the fact that even under Hazelwood, a school does not have a completely unfettered right to restrict speech. ",

"The foregoing demonstrates that it was Betsy's anticipated viewpoint that motivated Defendants, not any pedagogical concern. ",
"Perhaps more importantly, however, the transparency of Defendants' argument is made apparent by the deposition testimony of Pioneer High School Principal Caudle, who candidly testified that it would not have been consistent with the theme of Diversity Week to have only one religious viewpoint expressed on the Homosexuality and Religion panel. ",
"Principal Henry Caudle testified as follows:\nQ: ... [W]hat is your understanding of the purpose and goal of the Diversity Week events? ",

"\nPioneer High School is very diverse, and that's a good thing. ",

"That Defendants can say with apparent sincerity that they were advancing the goal of promoting \"acceptance and tolerance for minority points of view\" by their demonstrated in tolerance for a viewpoint that was not consistent with their own is hardly *802 worthy of serious comment. ",
"Suffice it to say that inherent in this rationale is the premise that the PFC view of homosexuality as a religious sin is not a minority view, or at least not a minority view which should be tolerated. ",

"Indeed, the court is left to wonder what message concerning intellectual integrity the school is conveying to students by making an argument that is so transparently disingenuous and offensive in its Procrustean attempt to torture the facts ex post facto to justify its ultimate decision.",
"\nDefendants claim that they expected Betsy to follow proper procedures with respect to the Homosexuality and Religion panel, and because she did not attend all mandatory meetings and did not provide Ms. Korzdorfer with a list of names of the persons she wanted on the panel, they were justified in not allowing her to have a representative on the panel. ",
"However, the record evidence establishes that attendance at the first \"mandatory\" meeting was not, in fact, mandatory for everyone there were students who did not attend the first meeting who were allowed participation on other panels. ",
"Indeed, it was specifically because the first \"mandatory\" meeting was so sparsely attended, that a second \"mandatory\" meeting was scheduled which Ms. Hansen did attend. ",
"Furthermore, Tom Jensen testified that it was accepted practice if a student was absent from school on the day of a mandatory meetingas Betsy was on February 22, 2002he or she was not precluded from participating so long as they had someone else attend to inform the student council advisor that they wanted to be on a panel. ",
"Kirsten Raab attended the first mandatory meeting and, at Betsy Hansen's request, Kirsten told Ms. Korzdorfer that Betsy wanted to be on the Homosexuality and Religion panel. ",
"Indeed, Ms. Korzdorfer testified that she could not affirmatively say that if Betsy had been at the first mandatory meeting she would have been allowed representation on the panel. ",
"And, with respect to not providing Korzdorfer with a list of names, Ms. Korzdorfer ad *803 mitted at her deposition that she never gave Betsy a deadline for doing so and never followed up on the issue because she made the decision to cancel the panel shortly after her conversation with Betsy concerning the names. ",
"It was only after the panel was reinstated that the decision to exclude Betsy from the panel was made. ",
"Therefore, Betsy never had an opportunity to submit names of panelists.[27]\nIt is clear from the foregoing that, notwithstanding their pronouncement that they were motivated by \"legitimate pedagogical concerns,\" Defendants' actions were, in fact, motivated by their disagreement with Betsy's message and that their decisions restricting Betsy Hansen's speech and excluding her viewpoint from the Homosexuality and Religion panel were not \"viewpoint neutral.\" ",
"In fact, the record is quite clear that Defendants' motivation was precisely the opposite: to insure that only one viewpoint was presented by the panel.",
"\nThe danger in this is quite evident, and it is a danger that would jeopardize the rights of not only PFC members, but equally (and perhaps, more so) the rights of gays, lesbians and other groups. ",
"As the Court pointed out at oral argument, if schools are permitted to stifle opposing viewpoints in the manner done here, what is to prevent school administrators in other districts where there are, perhaps groups strongly rooted in the community who are opposed to gay rights on religious (or other) grounds from holding a school forum on homosexuality and religion and refusing to permit a more gay-friendly message to be presented. ",
"And, of course, the same may be said about other politically- or religiously-charged issues. ",
"The point, of course, is that, no matter how well-intentioned the stated objective, once schools get into the business of actively promoting one political or religious viewpoint over another, there is no end to the mischief that can be done in the name of good intentions.",

",
"However, two federal circuit courtsthe First and the Second Circuitshave specifically done so, and the Court finds their decisions instructive.",
"\nIn Brown v. Hot, Sexy and Safer Productions, Inc., 68 F.3d 525 (1st Cir.1995), the parents of two high school students complained that the officials of a public school district violated their parental rights to direct the upbringing of their children and to educate in accord with their own views of morality.

"68 F.3d at 529.",
"\nIn addressing the parents' parental rights claim, the Brown court examined the historical context and development of the \"fundamental\" parental right to direct the upbringing and education of children and concluded that, in the context of curricular choices made by public school officials, the rights of parents as established by the Supreme Court in Meyer, Pierce and their progeny, are not implicated. ",
"The court reasoned:\nThe Meyer and Pierce cases, we think, evince the principle that the state cannot prevent parents from choosing a specific educational programwhether it be religious instruction at a private school or instruction in a foreign language. ",
"That is, the state does not have the power to \"standardize its children\" or \"foster a homogeneous people\" by completely foreclosing the opportunity of individuals and groups to choose a different path of education. ",
"We do not think, however, that this freedom encompasses a fundamental constitutional right to dictate the curriculum at the public school to which they have chosen to send their children. ",
"We think it is fundamentally different for the state to say to a parent, \"You can't teach your child German or send him to a parochial school,\" than for the parent to say to the state, \"You can't teach my child subjects that are morally offensive to me.\" ",
"the first instance involves the state proscribing parents from educating their children, while the second involves parents prescribing what the state shall teach their children. ",
"If all parents had a fundamental constitutional right to dictate individually what the schools teach their children, the schools would be forced to cater a curriculum for each student whose parents had genuine moral disagreements with the school's choice of subject matter. ",
"We cannot see that the Constitution imposes such a burden on state educational systems, and accordingly find that the rights of parents as described by Meyer and Pierce do not encompass a broadbased right to restrict the flow of information in the public schools.",

"\nIn Leebaert v. Harrington, 332 F.3d 134 (2nd Cir.2003), the Second Circuit similarly held that a parent's claim of violation of parental rights was subject only to a rational-basis level of scrutiny, notwithstanding that it was coupled with a free exercise claim. ",
"There, the basis of the parent's claim was a state's requirement that public *812 schools include in their health education component teaching about alcohol, tobacco, drugs and sex. ",
"Mr. Leebaert objected to his seventh grade son being taught such matters, specifically tying his own religious and moral values to his objections:\nMy objection... is that I believe that God has empowered human beings with the right to bring their children up with correct moral principles in dealing with the issues taught in this course, not the school system.

"As the Brown and Swanson[32] courts correctly perceived, recognition of such a fundamental rightrequiring a public school to establish that a course of instruction objected to by a parent was narrowly tailored to meet a compelling state interest before the school could employ it with respect to the parent's child would make it difficult or impossible for any public school authority to administer school curricula responsive to the overall educational needs of the community and its children.",
"\nId. at 140 (footnote added).[33]\nThe Leebaert court also rejected the plaintiff-parent's attempt to analogize his claim to that of the plaintiffs in Wisconsin v. Yoder, 406 U.S. 205, 92 S.Ct. ",
"1526, 32 L.Ed.2d 15 (1972). ",
"In Yoder, the Supreme Court invalidated Wisconsin's compulsory high-school attendance law under the Free Exercise Clause in response to Amish parents' objections. ",

"\nLeebaert argued that his claim, based on the interests of parenthood combined with a free exercise claim, was analogous to that of the Amish parents in Yoder. ",
"However, as the Second Circuit observed, *813 the Yoder Court took pains explicitly to limit its holding to \"a free exercise claim of the nature revealed by this record,\" id., \"one that probably few other religious groups or sects could make,\" id. at 236, 92 S.Ct. ",
"1526. ",
"It was based upon a history of three centuries as an identifiable religious sect and a long history as a successful and self-sufficient segment of American society, that the Amish convincingly demonstrated the sincerity of their religious beliefs, the interrelationship of belief with their mode of life, the vital role that belief and daily conduct play in the continued survival of Old Order Amish communities and their religious organization, and the hazards presented by the State's enforcement of a statute generally valid as to others.

",
"But because of the comparative breadth of the plaintiffs' claim in Yoder, we do not think that Leebaert's free exercise claim is governed by that decision: He has not alleged that his community's entire way of life is threatened by Corky's participation in the mandatory health curriculum. ",
"Leebaert does not assert that there is an irreconcilable Yoder-like clash between the essence of Leebaert's religious culture and the mandatory health curriculum that he challenges. ",
"Leebaert asserts that the mandatory health curriculum conflicts with his belief that \"drugs and tobacco are [not] proper subjects that I want my son's school to teach\" and his view that \"sex before marriage is ... something I do not want my sons to be involved in.\" ",

"It can hardly be said that a 50-minute panel discussion which students could opt-out of if they so choseequates with a \"Yoder-like clash\" between the essence of a religious culture of an entire community and the beliefs espoused by the panelists which are challenged here. ",
"Applying a rational-basis level of scrutiny, then, this Court agrees with the First Circuit: If all parents had a fundamental constitutional right to dictate individually what the schools teach their children, the schools would be forced to fashion a separate curriculum for each student whose parents had genuine religious or moral disagreements with the school's choice of subject matter.

"\n\n\n*814 F. DEFENDANTS ARE NOT ENTITLED TO QUALIFIED IMMUNITY\n\nThe individual Defendants have also argued that they are immune from liability on Plaintiffs' claims by application of the doctrine of qualified immunity, The Sixth Circuit has summarized the law of qualified immunity as follows:\nQualified immunity is a defense that is available to government officials performing discretionary functions. ",
"By operation of that doctrine, government officials generally are shielded from liability for civil damages insofar as their conduct does not violate clearly established statutory or constitutional rights of which a reasonable person would have known. ",
"Accordingly, any objectively reasonable action by a state officer, as assessed in the light of clearly established law at the time of the conduct at issue, will be insulated by qualified immunity. ",
"Thus, even if a public officer has deprived the plaintiff of a federal right, qualified immunity will apply if an objectively reasonable official would not have understood, by referencing clearly established law, that his conduct was unlawful.",

",
"Thus, the only question is whether, measured by an objective reasonableness standard, Defendants should have understood that their conduct was unlawful.",
"\nDefendants can hardly claim that a reasonable education official in their position would not have understood that their actions were unlawful when they themselves were expressly informed at the March 12, 2002 meeting by Equity Ombudsman Eaddy-Richardson, who was a licensed attorney, that Betsy had a legal right to have her view represented on the Homosexuality and Religion panel.

"For confirmation of this, the Court need look no further than Ms. Korzdorfer's own statements and Defendants' own conduct. ",
"First, Korzdorfer's e-mail to Parker Pennington summarized the March 12, 2002 meeting with Principal Caudle, Class principal Erickson, Eaddy-Richardson, and PFC advisor Bill Johnson:\nThe crux of the meeting was this: Pio's for Christ have a leagal [sic] right to be on the panel. ",
"It does not matter that the panel's intent is to show how religion and sexuality can go hand in hand. ",
"They have a leagal [sic] right to say that homosexuality [sic] is not a valid lifestyle. ",
"That is the bottom line.",
"\nFurther, once Defendants had been informed at the March 12 meeting of PFC's right to be on the panel, Defendants response was, as Korzdorfer explained in her e-mail, to cancel the panel. ",
"This conduct clearly acknowledges the Defendants' awareness that PFC had a right to participate on the panel, as Korzdorfer cited this right as the only reason for canceling the panel. ",
"Given their belief in the PFC's *815 legal right to representation on the panel, Defendants had three fairly obvious options: (1) include a PFC representative on the panel; (2) cancel the panel, as they initially did, and stand by their decision; or (3) at the very least, seek a formal legal opinion from another attorney to obtain a definitive determination as to whether they were required to include a PFC representative on the panel. (",
"Of course, this last option may well have resulted in an opinion they did not want, i.e., that PFC did have a right to be represented on the panel.)",
"\nInstead, Defendants chose a fourth option: to reinstate the panel and exclude the PFC, knowing well that they might be sued. ",
"See Korzdorfer Dep. ",
"Ex. ",
"25 (explaining to Parker Pennington her decision to cancel the panel rather than include a PFC representative on the panel, Korzdorfer stated, \"I am treading on shallow ground here, as I do not want to be sued.\")",

"Having knowingly taken that risk, Defendants can now not be credibly heard to deny their knowledge of Plaintiffs' legal rights.",
"\nFor these reasons, the Court finds that Defendants are not entitled to qualified immunity in this case.",
"\n\nCONCLUSION\nFor all of the reasons stated above in this Opinion and Order, the Court finds that Defendants' actions with respect to Betsy Hansen during Diversity Week 2002 violated Plaintiffs' First Amendment right to freedom of speech and further violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.

"The Court further finds that by their actions, Defendants denied Betsy Hansen her constitutional right to equal protection. ",

"The Tenth Circuit determined that Hazelwood did not require viewpoint neutrality when educators made decisions about school-sponsored speech. ",
"Although it noted that the Sixth, Ninth, and Eleventh Circuits had all determined that Hazelwood required viewpoint neutrality, the Fleming court held that viewpoint neutrality is not required. ",
"In reaching that conclusion, the Fleming court relied upon two decisions from the First and Third Circuits, Ward v. Hickey, 996 F.2d 448 (1st Cir.1993), and C.H. ex rel Z.H. v. Oliva, 195 F.3d 167, 172-73 (3d Cir.1999), aff'd in relevant part (without explanation) and vacated and remanded in part, 226 F.3d 198 (3d Cir. ",
"2000) (en banc). ",
"However, Fleming's reliance on these two decisions is wholly misplaced because in both Ward and C.H., the speech involved was government speech, not \"school-sponsored\" speech. ",

"Similarly, Ward dealt with regulation of teacher speech in the classroom. ",

"As the Court indicated at the hearing on this matter, neither of these alternatives constitutionally suffices to excuse Defendants' refusal to allow PFC representation on the Homosexuality and Religion panel. ",
"First, with respect to the \"milk crate preaching,\" the whole purpose of the panel, as Defendants' counsel conceded at oral argument, was to invest the panel with the authority and greater expertise of a formal panel with perceived religious leaders and Biblical scholars leading the discussion.

"2649, 120 L.Ed.2d 467 (1992)), the Sixth Circuit expressly has determined that, other than in aid-to-education cases, the rule that this Circuit will adhere to is the traditional Lemon analysis. ",
"See Cutter v. Wilkinson, supra.",
"\n[29] As discussed at oral argument, even if more than one religious view were conveyed by the panel (e.g., if the PFC had been permitted to have a representative on the panel), the Homosexuality and Religion panel may still have failed to pass muster under the Lemon test because the panel would still have shown a preference for religion in general. ",
"See Mellen, supra, 327 F.3d at 375; Cutter, supra (the Establishment Clause prohibits government not only from endorsing a particular religion but also from promoting religion generally.) ",

"However, because the PFC was not permitted to have its view presented, the Court need not decide this issue here.",

"In Swanson, the Tenth Circuit held that a public school's policy against part-time attendance did not implicate parents' constitutional right to direct their children's education. ",
"Id. at 702.",
"\n[33] The Leebaert court acknowledged that the Supreme Court, in dicta in Employment Division, Dept. ",
"of Human Resources of Ore. v. Smith, supra, distinguished the facts under review in that free exercise case from potential cases that might involve the Free Exercise Clause in conjunction with other constitutional protections, Smith at 882, 110 S.Ct. ",
"1595, stating that \"[t]he present case does not present such a hybrid situation, but a free exercise claim unconnected with any communicative activity or parental right.\" ",
"Id. The Court, thus, implied at least that such \"hybrid situations\" combining a free exercise claim with a parental rights claim, for example, might merit a higher standard than rational basis review. ",
"However, because the Smith statement was dicta, the Second Circuit declined to apply some stricter standard of review to Leebaert's parental rights claim.",
"\n\nThe Sixth Circuit has also rejected a more stringent legal standard for hybrid claims involving free exercise and various other constitutional claims, albeit not in the parental rights context. ",

"ANALYSIS/OPINION:\n\nA policeman’s lot is not a happy one, and these are miserable days for the FBI, stung by accusations that it bungled high-profile political investigations, and just when the legacy media was ready for an all-out assault on Donald Trump and guns for conducting the massacre of children in Florida the FBI is revealed to have ignored a tip that would likely have prevented unspeakable tragedy.",
"\n\nThe FBI was told in early January that Nikolas Cruz, the 19-year-old man charged with killing 17 persons, nearly all students, at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., had collected an arsenal of guns, and he had expressed a desire to kill people, behaved erratically and had posted disturbing social-media messages. ",
"The tipster was concerned that Cruz would attack a school.",
"\n\nThe FBI concedes that it bungled again. ",
"The agency said it failed to pass the tip on to its Miami field office, even though its own protocols say Nikolas Cruz “should have been assessed as a potential threat to life.”",
"\n\nGov. Rick Scott of Florida has been scathing in his denunciation of FBI incompetence. “",
"The FBI’s failure to take action against this killer is unacceptable,” he said. “",
"Seventeen people are dead and acknowledging a mistake isn’t going to cut it. ",
"An apology will never bring these 17 Floridians back or comfort the families who are in pain. ",
"The families will spend a lifetime wondering how this could happen.” ",
"The governor demanded the resignation of Christopher Wray, the director of the FBI.",
"\n\n“We constantly promote ‘see something, say something,’ and a courageous person did just that to the FBI, and the FBI failed to act. ‘",
"See something, say something’ is an incredibly important tool, and people must have confidence in the follow-through from law enforcement. ",
"The FBI director needs to resign.”",
"\n\nThe FBI has been collecting accolades from the left for its performance in several political investigations, particularly pertaining to Hillary Clinton, and the leadership at the top of the agency have obviously been spending too much time reading the favorable reviews.",

"The present approach offers several advantages such as higher yields, eco-friendly reaction condition and economic availability of the catalyst. ",
"The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antifungal activity against six fungal strains. ",
"Some of the synthesized conjugates displayed good to moderate antifungal activity. ",
"Again, the molecular docking study performed against the fungal sterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) showed an excellent binding affinity towards the enzyme which could rationalize the promising antifungal activity portrayed by these derivatives and provides a platform for structure based drug design."

"Breaking the Vicious Cycle of Illegitimate Private Debt\n\nThroughout human history, private debt has been used by the dominant classes to subjugate, despoil, expropriate, and dispossess the toiling classes (among whom women have always been the hardest-hit victims): small farmers, artisans, fishers, and on up to the salaried workers of today and the members of their households (students, who go into debt to pursue their education). [",
"1] The process is simple: the lender requires that borrowers pledge their possessions as collateral. ",
"This can be, for example, the land held and cultivated by the farmer, or in the case of an artisan, the tools of his or her trade. ",
"Repayment of the loan must be made in cash or in kind. ",
"Since the interest rates are high, to repay the loan the borrower must transfer a large share of the fruits of his or her labour to the lender, and so becomes impoverished. ",
"If the borrower defaults on repayment, the borrower is dispossessed of the pledged collateral. ",
"In some societies, that can mean a loss of freedom for the debtor and/or the members of his or her family. ",
"This is called debt slavery. ",
"Under the laws of the United States and certain European countries, failure to repay a debt was punishable by physical mutilation until the early 19th century. ",
"And still today, in Europe and elsewhere, non-repayment of debts may be punishable by imprisonment.",
"\n\nPrivate debt during the capitalist era\n\nIn Europe, in the 17th and 18th centuries, private indebtedness among the working classes and the repression of non-payment of debts contributed to creating a proletarian mass: imprisonment, mutilation, and the creation of penal colonies contributed to forcing impoverished citizens to accept work in factories. ",
"This is one of the sources of the primitive accumulation that enabled capitalism to impose itself as the dominant mode of production, first in Europe and then in the rest of the world. [",
"2] A large part of the proletarian mass who moved to the cities where factories were beginning to develop was made up of heavily indebted people from the countryside who had been dispossessed of their land.",
"\n\nNon-payment of debts was violently repressed through the middle of the 19th century in the countries at the centre of the burgeoning industrial capitalist system: Western Europe and North America.",
"\n\nPoor people who were guilty of not being able to repay loans were punished with harsh prison sentences. ",
"Capital punishment was frequently applied in England until the 18th century. ",
"In the United States, in the State of Pennsylvania, at the end of the 18th century, those unable to repay loans could be sentenced to be flogged and put in the pillory with their ear nailed to it. ",
"The ear was then cut off. ",
"Debtors were also subject to being branded. ",
"In France, prison sentences were systematically handed out. ",
"In addition, of course, offenders were evicted from their homes and all their possessions were seized.",
"\n\nA few examples of dispossession and resistance in the 18th and 19th centuries\n\nBeginning in 1798, debtors organized a self-protection movement and demanded the adoption of legislation protecting them against the whims of creditors and the courts. ",
"A federal law was adopted in 1800, but the protection it afforded was limited to bankers and merchants in default of payment. ",
"And in any case, the different States continued to apply their own laws, which most often favoured creditors.",
"\n\nShays Rebellion, 1786\n\nScott Standage [3] cites an 1828 book, The Patriot; or, People’s Companion which argued for the abolition of debtors’ prisons on the grounds that debt was a form of “civil slavery” comparable to the slavery of the Blacks, neither debtors nor slaves having any protection under the Constitution.",
"\n\nThe hope of escape from creditors was one of the causes of the migratory flow from the Eastern United States to the Far West.",
"\n\nThe majority of Europeans who took part in the colonization of the New World in the 17th and 18th centuries had gone into debt to pay for their voyage, and consequently found themselves in a state of servitude to their creditors. ",
"Over many long years, they were forced to repay the initial debt and were threatened with prison or mutilation should they fail to pay. ",
"It is estimated that between half and two thirds of the Europeans who settled in the thirteen British colonies in North America between 1630 and 1776 came under indentured servitude. [",
"4] This type of debt servitude was not abolished in the United States until 1917.",
"\n\nThe same type of debt contract was applied throughout the British empire to finance colonisation. ",
"Millions of poor people left India to settle in the British Caribbean, Mauritius, South Africa, and other parts of the empire as indentured servants. ",
"In Mauritius alone, between 1834 and 1917, nearly a million and a half Indians settled after being forced by poverty to accept debt servitude contracts. [",
"5]\n\nIn 1875, in India, in the vast region called the Deccan, uprisings broke out during which indebted peasants set out to systematically destroy moneylenders’ account books and in effect repudiate their debts. [",
"6] The revolt lasted two months and involved some thirty villages covering 6,500 sq. ",
"km. ",
"A parliamentary investigatory commission was put in place in London and in 1879 the Dekkhan Agriculturists’ Relief Act [7] was adopted, providing a certain degree of protection for indebted peasants.",
"\n\nIn 1880, a debt crisis affected small and medium farmers in the United States. ",
"It happened again on a massive scale in the 1930s, as chronicled by author John Steinbeck in his famous novel The Grapes of Wrath, published in 1939. ",
"These successive crises resulted in the dispossession of millions of indebted farmers in the United States for the benefit of major private agribusiness corporations.",
"\n\nFrom the Truck System in the 19th century to 20th-century consumer credit\n\nIn the 19th century, when the Industrial Revolution and the expansion of capitalism became generalized, owners implemented the “truck system,” which enabled them to keep employees permanently in debt. ",
"Workers, in lieu of payment of wages in standard currency, were given a substitute currency or scrip which they could spend only in the company store [8] to buy all the basic goods they needed to live – food, fuel for heating and lighting, clothing, and so on – at exorbitant prices, with the purchases deducted from their pay. ",
"Very often they were forced to recognize a debt since their expenditures exceeded the amount of their wage. ",
"Workers were forced to struggle hard against this system. ",
"It was one reason why workers organized cooperatives (bakeries, etc.) ",
"to produce food or sell basic necessities at affordable prices. ",
"The truck system was eventually prohibited.",
"\n\nThe decades after the Second World War are characterized, in the most industrialized countries (and also in several countries of the global South, such as Argentina), by a period of strong economic growth during which workers, through organized struggle, were able to achieve major social advances such as significant increases in purchasing power, consolidation of social-security systems, and improvements in public services, in particular education and health care. ",
"States also nationalized a number of industries, which strengthened their power to intervene economically. ",
"The populations benefited more from the wealth that was created, and the share of wages in the GDPs increased.",
"\n\nAs a result of the neoliberal offensive begun in Chile in 1973 with the dictator Pinochet, then in Argentina in 1976 under the Videla dictatorship (both dictatorships having enjoyed active support from Washington) and later consolidated by Thatcher and Reagan during the 1980s, real wages shrank. ",
"In the industrialized countries, mass consumption continued to progress at the cost of greater and greater indebtedness of the population. [",
"9] Government leaders, banks and major industrial and commercial corporations encouraged households to go into ever increasing debt.",
"\n\nImprisonment for debts relating to unpaid fines has not fully disappeared\n\nAstonishing as it may seem, non-payment of private debt, and more precisely private debt or fines owed to the State, is still subject to imprisonment in several European countries, despite its being prohibited by several international conventions. [",
"10] In France, imprisonment for debt was abolished twice for brief periods, in 1793 and in 1848. ",
"It was eliminated permanently in civil and commercial law by legislation dated 22 July 1867. ",
"French criminal procedure eliminated imprisonment for debt concerning damages granted to civil plaintiffs in criminal cases in 1958. ",
"Today, imprisonment for debt exists only for court-ordered fines, court costs and payments to the Treasury, and only if the offence comes under common law and is not punishable by life imprisonment. ",
"In France what is known as “judicial constraint” consists in incarcerating or keeping incarcerated a solvent individual for failure to pay certain fines he or she has been ordered to pay by the public treasury or the customs administration. [",
"11]\n\nIn Belgium, imprisonment (called subsidiary imprisonment) for non-payment of fines levied by the State is still possible, even though successive Justice Ministers over the past twenty years or so have recommended that it not be applied. ",
"In a response to a parliamentary question from an extreme Right (Vlaams Belang) MP at a time when that party was getting 20% of the vote, the Belgian Justice Minister stated: “Article 40 provides that ‘Failing payment within two months of the date of the ruling or sentence, if after trial, or of notification in case of default of appearance, the fine may be replaced by imprisonment for a duration fixed in the ruling or sentence and not to exceed six months for persons found guilty of a crime, three months in case of misdemeanour, and three days in case of simple infraction’. ‘",
"If the sentence is limited to a fine, the imprisonment for failure of payment is treated as correctional or as lenient imprisonment depending on the nature of the conviction.’ ",
"Article 41 provides: ‘In all cases, the convicted individual can avoid said imprisonment by paying the fine; he or she may not evade action taken against his or her possessions by offering to undergo imprisonment.’” [",
"12] In practice, a judge in Belgium can issue a sentence calling for subsidiary imprisonment (only in the context of a criminal proceeding). ",
"In such a case, the judge calls for a fine and instructs that if the individual prefers, or lacks the resources, he or she may, or must, serve a prison term. ",
"Obviously, a wealthy person will choose to pay the fine, whereas someone with very low income and little or no possessions will not be in a position to choose. ",
"Here is an example of the class nature of the justice system.",
"\n\nThe Minister added: “In 2000, for ordinary offences, out of 22,632 sentences to fines, the prosecutors opened 3,745 cases concerning execution of sentences to subsidiary imprisonment. ",
"In 2001, of 21,375 sentences to fines, only 1,745 cases of execution of sentences to subsidiary imprisonment were opened by the prosecutors.”",
"\n\nEven if, in practice, prison sentences are no longer or very rarely applied, the fact that certain countries have kept the possibility open is troubling. ",
"Should a party of the extreme Right accede to government and permanently reinforce repressive measures, it is possible that prison sentences for debt will be handed down to working-class scapegoats. ",
"There is no lack of reactionary judges within the justice system who could take initiatives that would reinforce the class nature of the application of the law.",
"\n\nWhen the real-estate bubble burst in Japan (1990s), in the USA (2006-2007), in Ireland and Iceland (2008), and in Spain (2009), tens of millions of working-class households were forced into debt default and were victims of massively organized evictions. [",
"13] On top of shrinking real wages, high levels of unemployment and abusive loan conditions, the effects of these debts are catastrophic for a growing number of working people. ",
"In the USA, since 2006, banks have dispossessed fourteen million families of their homes. [",
"14] Although the justice system has recorded no fewer than 500,000 cases of abusive and fraudulent real-estate contracts the actual figure is much higher. ",
"In Spain it has happened to more than 300,000 families. ",
"The legislation being used by the bankers to evict families from their homes dates from the era of the Franco dictatorship. ",
"In Greece, under the third Memorandum of Understanding agreed to by the Tsipras government in 2015, banks are being given a free hand to evict families unable to repay their mortgage debts. [",
"15] Once again in the history of the countries of the North we are witnessing a phenomenon of mass dispossession. ",
"In the USA, Spain, Ireland, Iceland, Greece, and elsewhere, a new type of movement and new mobilizations have come into being in resistance to these policies of eviction and dispossession.",
"\n\nDemonstration of the “Plataforma de Afectados por la Hipoteca” (PAH)\n\nIllegitimate student debt\n\nIn the most industrialized English-speaking countries and in Japan, the neoliberal policies applied in the education system have dramatically increased the cost of university studies and greatly restricted access to scholarships. ",
"The same phenomenon can be seen worldwide.",
"\n\nTens of millions of young people from the working classes are forced into debt of dramatic proportions in order to pursue university studies. ",
"In the USA, student debt is in excess of one trillion dollars (that is more than double the total external debt – private and public – of sub-Saharan Africa in 2015) [16] – a symbolic threshold that underlines the seriousness of the situation. ",
"Two out of three students are in debt for an average of $27,000. ",
"In 2008, 80% of students completing a Master’s degree in Law had accumulated a debt of $77,000 if they had studied at a private university, and $50,000 if they attended a public university. ",
"The average indebtedness of students who have completed one year of a specialization in Medicine was $140,000. ",
"A student who had successfully completed her Master’s in Law told an Italian daily: “I don’t think I’ll ever be able to repay the debts I contracted to pay for my studies. ",
"Some days I feel that when I die, I will still be paying monthly instalments on my university debt. ",
"Currently I have a repayment plan spread out over 27 and a half years, but it’s too ambitious because the rate is variable and I can hardly keep up with it (…). ",
"What worries me most is that I’m unable to save any money, and my debt is always there to haunt me.” [",
"17]\n\nHalf of Japan’s students are indebted. ",
"Average student indebtedness is the equivalent of $30,000. ",
"In Canada, the tendency is the same. [",
"18] Attending university costs more and more, whereas with the labour market saturated and ailing, jobs with a decent salary are more and more difficult to find. ",
"After their studies, young people in debt and their families are having greater and greater difficulty repaying the debts. ",
"Many are forced to accept jobs with little or no employment security and degrading working conditions. ",
"Meanwhile banks make fat profits from student debt. ",
"As in the case of illegitimate mortgage debt, new forms of struggle and new movements are coming into being to combat illegitimate student debt. ",
"One example is the Strike Debt! ",
"movement in the USA. ",
"We are seeing attempts to federate the different debt resistance movements – student debt, mortgage debt, consumer debt, debt related to taxes, and of course public debt. [",
"19]\n\nOver-indebtedness is deteriorating the living conditions of a larger and larger section of the working classes in all the industrialized countries. ",
"In Belgium, for example, the number of persons in collective debt settlement more than doubled between 2007 and 2017.",
"\n\nWomen heads of single-parent families everywhere are particularly affected by over-indebtedness. ",
"In addition to physical deprivation, over-indebted persons are subject to increasing suffering due to the humiliations associated with debt. ",
"Intrusions into the private lives and the homes of over-indebted persons by the authorities are becoming more frequent and more violent. ",
"With the precarity of the workforce and the payment of sub-standard wages for part-time jobs and even for full-time jobs, more and more wage earners are becoming victims of the debt system.",
"\n\nThe making of the Indebted Man\n\nOver the recent decades, the policies employed by governments and the capitalist class to roll back social progress have made stable, collectively bargained labour contracts a priority target. ",
"Workers’ and beneficiaries’ fundamental rights are presented as privileges and as obstacles to competitiveness and flexibility. ",
"A systematic campaign in favour of self-employment dangles the attraction of a certain illusion of personal freedom before the eyes of the hopeful. ",
"More and more people are forced to go into debt to become self-employed, to create a “micro-company” – in other words, to corporatize themselves, to exploit their own “human capital.” ",
"As Maurizio Lazzarato says in his book The Making of the Indebted Man, “In the debt economy, to become human capital or an entrepreneur of the self means assuming the costs as well as the risks of a flexible and financialized economy, costs and risks which are not only – far from it – those of innovation, but also and especially those of precariousness, poverty, unemployment, a failing health system, housing shortages, etcetera.” [",
"20] A growing number of people who have tried their hand at self-employment fail, slide into over-indebtedness and lose what little they had. ",
"Lazzarato describes how the strategy of the neoliberal program views the Welfare State: social rights are gradually turned into “social debts,” which neoliberal policies in turn transform into private debt; in parallel, beneficiaries become “debtors” to unemployment insurance funds and to the State. [",
"21] As the policies conducted by neoliberal governments lead to the impoverishment of wage earners (freezing or reduction of wages, increased precarity, etc.) ",
"and beneficiaries of other social rights (freezing or reduction of pensions, reduction or elimination of social assistance and unemployment benefits, deterioration or disappearance of certain public services, reduction or elimination of scholarships, etc.), ",
"he explains, finance makes promises of enrichment through access to credit and shareholding. ",
"Increases in wages and pensions are replaced by consumer credit and the promise of dividends (from pension fundsPension FundPension FundsPension funds: investment funds that manage capitalized retirement schemes, they are funded by the employees of one or several companies paying-into the scheme which, often, is also partially funded by the employers.

"The objective is to pay the pensions of the employees that take part in the scheme. ",
"They manage very big amounts of money that are usually invested on the stock markets or financial markets. ",
"or insurance); the right to decent housing is replaced by mortgage credit and the right to education by student loans; mutualized insurance against risks such as unemployment and illness is replaced by individual insurance. [",
"22]\n\nMany of the refugees who reach Europe after overcoming almost unimaginable obstacles have gone into debt in order to undertake the voyage to the country of refuge. ",
"There they are forced to accept extremely harsh working conditions in order to repay their debts since they know that the members of their family who have stayed behind are under pressure from their creditors. ",
"Many female immigrants are forced into prostitution in order to repay an illegitimate debt.",
"\n\nSince the crisis that broke out in the industrialised countries in 2007, the private-debt part of the “debt system” has become harsher – abusive mortgage debts, illegitimate student debt, and consumer debt leading to alienation and impoverishment. ",
"This goes hand in hand with the action of governments who use the increase in the public debt they themselves have encouraged to intensify the offensive against the social progress made during the 20th century.",
"\n\nSupporting initiatives that further the struggle against illegitimate private debt\n\nHow can we expect people who due to over-indebtedness have been humiliated and abused by banks, evicted from their homes, and who in spite of all that are still liable for a still unresolved portion of that debt to come together and mobilize against repayment of public debt accumulated by the State or take part in collective actions in favour of workers’ rights? ",
"Having been defeated in their personal struggles because resistance movements strong enough to prevent evictions or escape from other forms of over-indebtedness don’t exist, how can they find the strength to continue struggling? ",
"They are unlikely to feel that the issue of illegitimate public debt or collective struggles for social rights concern them. ",
"Therefore it is necessary to give full support to initiatives that further the struggle against illegitimate private debt.",
