This week marks five years since Gabriel Wortman murdered 22 Nova Scotians over the course of 13 hours. Paul Palango and Adam Rodgers are joined this week by Scott MacLeod, brother of Sean MacLeod, one of Wortman's victims. Scott was present for much of the Mass Casualty Commission hearing process, and is a part of the Progress Monitoring Committee that was established to track the implementation of the MCC's recommendations. Scott shares his reflections on all of that, along with his still unanswered questions that remain after five years. Before Scott joins the discussion, Paul and Adam discuss the parts of the federal leaders' debates where justice issues were raised, as well as Paul's week of meetings with publishers in Toronto (and what that says about public attitudes towards policing in Canada).

This Easter weekend marks the 5th anniversary of the NS mass shooting. I look at the changes since that time, focusing on the recommendations on the treatment of domestic violence. I preview this weekend's Dispersing the Fog episode, which will feature special guest, Scott MacLeod.In the Supreme Court of Canada, arguments were made on an interprovincial travel case that arose during the pandemic. Kim Taylor was looking to travel from NS to St. John's NL for her mother's funeral in May of 2020, but was denied entry. The SCC heard arguments on section six of the Charter, which deals with movement between provinces. I analyze the arguments, and predict how the Court will decide the case.Finally, I review the justice portions of the leadership debates from the past two nights, and observe how one of Mr. Poilievre's final answers at the debate reminded me of Eric Lindros' MVP speech from the 1995 NHL awards.
This week, Paul Palango and Adam Rodgers discuss the Conservative and Liberal justice proposals released this week in the Canadian federal election campaign. The Conservatives say “three strikes and you're out”, while the Liberals look to tackle gun crimes. Related, this week the National Post published an excerpt of Tristin Hopper's new book, Don't Be Canada. The excerpt we analyse deals with Hopper's critiques of the Canadian justice system, particularly as it deals with bail matters, and indigenous offenders.Also, there is a case unfolding in BC, involving former officer Bill Majcher, who has been accused of espionage against Canada. Two other officers allege that they have been subjected to a spyware attack from the RCMP on their police-issued phones.The show starts out with Paul describing an unusual invitation to join with retired police officers, ostensibly to join in their efforts to reform policing in Canada. It did not go as (they) planned.
This week, Paul Palango and Adam Rodgers discuss stories from Ottawa, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario, as well as a school shooting report from Nashville. Some US lawyers are reacting to being targeted by the Trump administration by refusing to take on cases against the government. The implications for the justice system are discussed. PM Carney delayed dropping candidate Paul Chiang despite his advocating for his opponent to be turned in to Chinese officials. Paul explains how politicians are enamored with police officers, even as candidates.In NS, the government is trying to regulate on-reserve cannabis sales.An RCMP officer in New Brunswick has been cleared of wrongdoing in a shooting on a First Nations reserve. A school shooting report out of Nashville has cleared the shooters parents and care providers of responsibility. There are lessons for parents in the case.Finally, a case out of Ontario has been tossed due to delay. The accused had been found with over 8kg of cocaine.
This week, Paul and Adam discuss the revelations that a reporter for The Atlantic was invited to join a high level group chat on Signal, which involved attack plans for Yemen. Also discussed, the case of Turkish national Rumeysa Ozturk, a student on a study visa in the US being abducted by ICA agents and transferred out of state contrary to a court order. Paul has some sources telling him about operations within the OPP, and Adam discusses how 'Mr. Big' operations work, and why they are seen as problematic. Finally, the guys end with a chat about baseball, and whether Mike Trout may end up on a decent team for once.
This week, Paul Palango and Adam Rodgers discuss the Federal election, which was called the day this podcast was recorded, and what to expect over the next few weeks of campaigning. The hit Netflix show, Adolescence, has been drawing interest for its portrayal of what might cause a young boy to commit serious violent offences. That same theme has been covered by the Fifth Estate in a story in Canada about online luring and the harms that result. We discuss the RCMP's capacity and willingness to confront these new types of crimes in Canada.We then welcome Frank Magazine's Andrew Douglas to fill us in on some stories that he has been covering (and often breaking), including the recent drug-related murder in Sydney, NS. Andrew also brings his perspective on the state of local media in Nova Scotia, how Frank Magazine NS has been able to thrive, and why the public is underserved by the current model.
This week, on his final day in office, Prime Minister Trudeau released a brief position paper on the future direction of the RCMP. This unexpected announcement called for a narrower mandate for the Force, with Provinces taking over responsibility for community policing when current contracts with the RCMP expire in 2032. Author Paul Palango and lawyer Adam Rodgers discuss the White Paper, its timing, whether the new Prime Minister is likely to adopt the recommendations, and what the report gets right and wrong. Also discussed - St. Patrick's Day, the Ides of March, the five year anniversary of the pandemic, and the Gretzky-Ovechkin dynamic.
This week, Paul and Adam discuss the CBC story of the BlackHawk helicopters the RCMP has been renting to patrol the border, which have resulted in one non-fentanyl arrest. Also, there have been two recent in-custody deaths in Halifax involving police tasering. Why is that happening?Also discussed, NY Police are targeting crime hotspots. Is that racial profiling, or good policing? Finally, Paul has more thoughts on Wayne Gretzky having others defending him, and we chat about sports gambling commercials.
We unveil the name of the show, discuss Trump/border/fentanyl, Portapique civil suit update, Wayne Gretzky, Truro Police racism accusations, The Oscars, and more!
In this episode of The Conscious Collaboration Podcast, Emily and Lisa dive into the collective energy of the moment—how January felt like a decade and the swirling mix of emotions we're all experiencing. They discuss the power of creating amidst uncertainty, the importance of shifting energy toward positive outcomes, and the science of quantum entanglement as it relates to emotional well-being.Exploring the balance between dispersing energy and containing potential, they reflect on the lessons from the I Ching and how collaborations, transparency, and intentional action can help navigate the unknown. The conversation takes a fun turn into shamanic symbolism, the deeper meanings behind Mario Bros., and the impact of quantum resonance on relationships. Plus, a special announcement—an upcoming guest expert in Jungian psychology!Tune in for an enlightening, slightly dramatic (but not arrest-worthy) discussion on how to channel energy productively and turn obstacles into opportunities.Join our Conscious Collaboration Collective on Facebook, where you can share your wins and find support within our community.Talk to you in 5!Emily and LisaConnect with us!Instagram - Conscious Collaboration PodcastEmailconsciouscollaborationpodcast@gmail.comEmilyInstagram - @emily_ironyogiInstagram - @ironyogi_fitnessInstagram - @the_studieauxwww.ironyogifitness.comwww.thestudieaux.comLisaInstagram - @cloud9fengshuiwww.cloud9fengshui.comAtapa Red Light Therapy deviceswww.myatapa.comAtapa Red Light Therapy discount code: collab15 Connect with us!Instagram - Conscious Collaboration PodcastEmailconsciouscollaborationpodcast@gmail.comEmilyInstagram - @emily_ironyogiInstagram - @ironyogi_fitnessInstagram - @the_studieauxwww.ironyogifitness.comwww.thestudieaux.comLisaInstagram - @cloud9fengshuiwww.cloud9fengshui.comAtapa Red Light Therapy deviceswww.myatapa.comAtapa Red Light Therapy discount code: collab15
In this episode, Nicholas (SP/SO 9w1 936) talks about 9's passivity in relation to their dominant instinct and how they can "hope things just work themselves out." He also talks about how he learned to focus, take himself seriously, and summon the discipline to manifest his life vision. He also works through an intense caffeine spike in self-pres 9 fashion, so you can see in realtime as Nicholas narrates his 9 way of containing the intensity of his experience within an acceptable window of tolerance, or "envelope function."

In today's message, Pastor Morgan dives into Genesis 11, exploring the story of the Tower of Babel and its relevance for us. He unpacks humanity's tendency to build personal empires, often at the expense of our relationship with God, and contrasts this with God's ultimate invitation to partner in His kingdom. We're reminded that while ambition and achievement aren't wrong, true fulfillment and purpose come from aligning our lives with God's will. Join us as we reflect on what it means to heed God's invitation to “come” and find purpose in building His kingdom.00:00 - Pastor's Introduction & Gratitude for Community00:22 - Reflecting on Support and Joy in Ministry00:48 - Introducing the Genesis Series & Humanity's Story02:28 - Setting the Scene: Post-Flood & God's Promise04:16 - Noah's Descendants and the Call to Multiply05:03 - Tower of Babel: Humanity's Ambition and Unity06:07 - The Meaning Behind Tall Structures & Humanity's Flex08:16 - Motivations of Fame, Security, and Independence10:23 - Misplaced Ambition vs. God's Call to Faith11:23 - Genesis of Self-Sufficiency & Replacement of God16:06 - Humanity's Repeated Missteps and God's Grace20:10 - Humanity's “Come” vs. God's “Come”26:04 - God's Motivation: Unity in Relationship with Us28:56 - Dispersing at Babel: God's Grace and New Beginnings29:32 - Building Our Kingdoms vs. Building God's Kingdom30:37 - God's Call to “Come” for Transformation35:06 - Invitation to Respond: Building with God's Purpose36:21 - Closing Prayer: Embracing God's Invitation

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.04.27.538577v1?rss=1 Authors: Colizzi, F. S., Veenstra, J. A., Lazzaro, G., Helfrich-Foerster, C., Martinez-Torres, D. Abstract: The neuropeptide Pigment-Dispersing Factor (PDF) plays a pivotal role in the circadian clock of most Ecdysozoa and is additionally involved in the timing of seasonal responses of several photoperiodic species. The pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, is a paradigmatic photoperiodic species with an annual life cycle tightly coupled to the seasonal changes in day length. Nevertheless, PDF could not be identified in A. pisum so far. In the present study, we identified a PDF-coding gene that has undergone significant changes in the otherwise highly conserved insect C-terminal amino acid sequence. A newly generated aphid-specific PDF antibody stained four neurons in each hemisphere of the aphid brain that co-express the clock protein Period and have projections to the pars lateralis that are highly plastic and change their appearance in a daily and seasonal manner, resembling those of the fruit fly PDF neurons. Most intriguingly, the PDF terminals overlap with dendrites of the insulin-like peptide (ILP) positive neurosecretory cells in the pars intercerebralis and with putative terminals of Cryptochrome (CRY) positive clock neurons. Since ILP has been previously shown to be crucial for seasonal adaptations and CRY might serve as a circadian photoreceptor vital for measuring day length, our results suggest that PDF plays a critical role in aphid seasonal timing.

Antariksh Matters #1: India’s Space Policy under IN-SPACe— Pranav R SatyanathOn 10 June, 2022, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the headquarters of the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The setting up of IN-SPACe promises to usher in a new era for India’s commercial space sector, as the organisation is geared to function as a one-stop institution for regulating space activities and providing entities in the private sector access to facilities run by the Department of Space (DOS) and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). The creation of IN-SPACe was announced in June 2020 within the pages of the Draft National Space Transport Policy published in June 2020, in light of the growing importance of commercial entities for driving innovation in the space sector. IN-SPACe is structured as an independent body within the DOS, and as of this writing, IN-SPACe has authorised two private companies to launch their payloads onboard the PSLV-C53. The structure of INSPACe’s regulatory mechanism is shown below.Before IN-SPACeTo fully appreciate the significance of a regulatory body like IN-SPACe and identify its shortcomings, we must first see the regulatory arrangement present in India before the coming of this new autonomous body. The image below shows the structure of India’s space enterprise run by the DOS. Under this arrangement, it is clear that the DOS did not have any straightforward mechanism to interact with private space companies or regulate their activities. Since ISRO operated all of India’s launch facilities and a large number of research laboratories, it became a single point of contact for private companies, and therefore, a de facto space activities regulator. The Structure of India’s space ecosystem prior to IN-SPACe Source: ISROAs the private space industry in India began to grow, the difficulty of gaining access to gaining critical facilities and services made it all too evident that India desperately needed a new space policy. Further, the international regulatory environment on space sustainability also began to take shape under the Long-term Sustainability (LTS) Guidelines of the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNCOPUOS). India desperately needed a coherent domestic space policy to keep up with the international standards of regulating private entities and ensuring the safety and security of India’s own space assets. Within this context, the necessity of a new regulatory body for space activities was born. The Current Structure of India’s space ecosystem Source: ISROIN-SPACe now and in the futureThe existing structure of IN-SPACe promises a smooth process for private entities to:Be granted permission to operate.Be given access to facilities operated under DOS.Be granted permission to run their own facilities.IN-SPACe also promises to share technologies and remote sensing data with private companies through a new remote sensing policy. The substance of these promises can only be analysed once the IN-SPACe begins operating in full-swing.Some of the unintended consequences of IN-SPACe may be that it might act more as a gatekeeper than an enabler. Such risks can be avoided by maintaining the autonomy of IN-SPACe and reducing the role of other stakeholders in the decision-making process. Second, the DOS must eventually ensure that ISRO becomes a scientific research institution and cedes control of its legacy space launch vehicles to New Space India Limited, which must function as a fully private launch entity that competes with other domestic players.Cyberpolitik: India Needs a Fortified Computing Ecosystem— Arjun GargeyasThe advent of the Information Age and the digital economy has brought the concept of computational capacity into the limelight. Advanced computing mechanisms such as high-performance, quantum, and cloud have taken over the field of computing. Nation-states (and even private companies) are embroiled in a high-stakes race to increase indigenous computing power for several strategic purposes. Harnessing this pivotal technological resource remains a priority for a rising technological society like India. With the country’s data generation at an all-time high, there is a need for improving the computational capabilities of the state by utilising emerging advanced computing technologies. The announcement of the National Supercomputing Mission (NSM), in 2015 by the government of India, was the first step taken by the state in the field of High-Performance Computing technologies. A jointly funded programme between the Department of Science and Technology (DST) and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), a total outlay of Rs 4500 crore has been allocated for the mission over a period of 7 years (2016-2023). The main objectives of the mission were to spearhead research in the development of supercomputers and build a National Supercomputing Grid across the country. The implementation of the mission was divided into three phases. The first involved assembling supercomputers in India (till the end of 2018) and the second was meant for designing these high-performance computing solutions in the country (completed by September 2021). The final phase, which has officially commenced, involves the indigenous design and manufacturing of supercomputers in the country. Till the end of February 2022, there have been 10 supercomputers installed at various host institutions under the mission. However, considering the distribution of the top 500 most powerful supercomputers in the world, India accounts for just 0.6% of the total. While the national mission has kick started work in the field, there is a long way to go before India can develop its own interconnected structure of supercomputers.The other major advanced computing technology dominating the market is quantum computing. While India has a dedicated supercomputer programme in the form of NSM, there has been no dedicated government policy towards the field of quantum computing specifically. However, the domestic private sector has gotten involved in the development of quantum computing hardware, software, and algorithms. The government has relied on partnership deals with major private firms to advance the quantum computing landscape in the country. In 2021, the government of India announced tie-ups with technology giants, Amazon Web Services and IBM India to improve access to a quantum computing development environment for the industrial and the scientific community. This led to the establishment of the Quantum Computing Applications Laboratory to build small-scale quantum computers. The establishment of the Greater Karnavati Quantum Computing Technology Park (GKQCTP), by the government of Gujarat and a research firm, Ingoress looks to house the country’s first-ever quantum computer.Recent progress by the state in the computing domain has showcased the government’s intent to view computational capacity as a strategic tool to possess. However, the headway has been slow and adequate measures have to be taken to ensure India does not fall behind the pack. A holistic strategy is needed to facilitate the advancement in the computing field.First, the ability to build advanced computing devices and facilities rests on a wide range of components and raw materials. It would be impossible for any state, let alone India, to indigenously manufacture the whole system from scratch. This is where the reliance on high-tech imports kicks in. Trade barriers such as export control mechanisms and import restrictions that still exist can hamper access to the building blocks of these systems. For example, advanced processors for supercomputers and cryogenic cooling systems for quantum computers are a necessity. But with existing export controls, indigenously developing them will take time for India. Cutting down on import tariffs, especially in the electronics sector, along with embracing multilateral trade agreements like the Information Technology Agreement (ITA 2015) must be the government’s priority. Moving towards a liberalised trade policy that embraces tech imports can help the country accelerate its computing programmes.Second, there needs to be a more holistic vision for developing a nationwide computing grid. China’s recently announced National Computing Network can serve as a blueprint for India to scale up its computing infrastructure. The Chinese plan talks about a geographical approach to building data centres and computing clusters across the mainland. The concept of ‘Data from east, Computing in the west’ has been proposed, which involves the setting up of computing architecture in the less developed western regions of the country to handle the data stored in centres already established in the tech-aligned eastern region. A computing grid in India can follow a similar pattern with computing clusters scattered across the country. Till now, the government has focused on academic and scientific research institutions as hosts for large-scale computing systems. Dispersing these facilities across other locations can enhance and coordinate regional development also. Creating a better network can improve the functioning and efficiency of an advanced computing grid as well as handle large-scale data processing with ease.Third, looking at the need to increase computing power from a military and strategic perspective can improve the computing technology being used currently. In an age of information warfare and cybersecurity threats, increased computational capacity is a necessity and a risk mitigation tool. Advanced computing facilities at strategic environments like naval bases, air command control centres and border outposts can help in the faster analysis and real-time data processing that contains critical military intelligence. India must focus on its computing strategy keeping in mind the defence and national security angle. Countries like the US and China are looking at advanced computing systems to simulate military operations and gain key advantages. India needs to leverage its computing capabilities effectively for defence and cannot afford to remain complacent in this domain.(An edited version of this article came out in the Hindustan Times on 10th June 2022))Antariksh Matters #2: The UK Wants to be a Big Spacefarer— Aditya RamanathanOn 23 June, the UK’s minister for science, announced four sets of proposed plans that he said were intended to encourage sustainable use of space. The minister, George Freeman, unveiled the UK’s Plan for Space Sustainability during a talk at the latest edition of the Summit for Space Sustainability, which is hosted by the US-based Secure World Foundation and the UK government.The first of Freeman’s proposed plans is to strive “to lead in the global regulatory standards for orbital activities”. The second is to pursue international cooperation in the sustainable use of space. The third is to create what Freeman called “simple, accurate metrics” to gauge space sustainability. The fourth is to create a debris removal programme. The UK’s Outsize Ambitions in Space The UK has been a particularly active participant in international debates around space governance, sustainability and security. Last year, it released a national space strategy and in February of 2022, it published a defence space strategy. It was an early signatory of the US-led Artemis Accords that seeks to lay out ground rules for lunar exploration and commercial use. The UK was also a key driver behind the setting up of an Open-Ended Working Group (OEWG) on space threats, which completed its first meeting in May. Commercial concerns are at the heart of the UK’s activism. Freeman’s own remarks at the Space Sustainability Summit made clear the UK’s ambitions: “As it was with shipping in the 17th century and cars in the 20th, the key will be regulation which enforces good industry standards and reduces the cost of insurance and finance for a satellite launch which can show it is compliant. With London as a global capital of insurance and venture financing, we have an opportunity to use our historic role in space science to now harness responsible finance for sustainable space.” While Freeman’s comments implicitly evoked the legacy of the UK’s historic maritime power, they are in line with the goals of the national space strategy, which set out five goals:“Grow and level up our space economyPromote the values of Global BritainLead pioneering scientific discovery and inspire the nationProtect and defend our national interests in and through spaceUse space to deliver for UK citizens and the world”The UK’s own space industry is small but growing. According to a report commissioned by the UK government, space-related companies and organisations generated income of £16.5 billion in 2019-2020, a third of which came from exports. Space applications constituted the biggest share of this income, at £12.2 billion, followed by space manufacturing which accounted for £2.27 billion. The UK evidently hopes to see this industry grow much larger, but there will be some challenges ahead. While the UK will benefit from its special relationship with the US and traditional ties with Europe, it will face commercial competition from both geopolitical friends and foes. Its ambitions to set regulatory and legal standards are also likely to be contested by China and Russia. And even small-sized rivals like Luxembourg could market themselves as more attractive destinations for the registration of space companies. Notwithstanding these challenges, the UK’s activism also offers a model for other states like India. Freeman is yet to provide details of the proposals he outlined, but there’s no reason India cannot develop proposals of its own, outline a national space strategy, or actively participate in ongoing talks on space security.Our Reading Menu[Opinion] How India Can Take a Leaf Out of China’s Playbook on Battery Swapping to Form a Robust EV Ecosystem by Rohan Pai.[Report] Boost-Phase Missile Defense: Interrogating the Assumptions by Ian Williams, Masao Dahlgren, Thomas G.

Hello beautiful people! In this two part episode, we'll be chatting about the lessons from making $350k in sales in less than 2 years in this online business. The first part (today) will be about the strategic aspects and the second about the mindset and energetics. Here's what I covered in this episode: You have to believe in what you do, and sell something you LOVE. Building Know, Like and Trust is how you attract clients. Fastest way to get to that is through a solid content plan that provides value, social proof and authority. Videos are key to grow faster as they really help with the know like and trust. It's not harder to sell a program for $3000 than for $1000. The only difference is our beliefs about it. Evergreen program or launching business model, it doesn't matter. But you need to be putting stuff out there. The earlier you are in the process, the more you have to sell your stuff on a constant basis. WITHOUT feeling cringey. Pick one strategy and stick with it. Dispersing your energy left and right is not worth it. There is no magic strategy. Don't fall into that trap. Put your blinders on. Don't look at what others are doing, unless it's making you feel great. Are you ready to rewire your Subconscious mind for Abundance?

Leo Flores, Latin America coordinator for Code Pink, joins us to discuss US President-elect Joe Biden's appointment of Stengel to his transition team. A controversial figure, Stengel has made a number of statements that alarm civil libertarians, including urging the US government to "rethink" the First Amendment. Caleb Maupin, journalist and political analyst, joins us to discuss a recent Washington Post report saying that Beijing should not expect Biden to soften US President Donald Trump's hard line against China. The article argues that the former vice president will likely work to enlist the aid of allies to continue Trump's China policies. John Burris, civil rights attorney, joins us to discuss the upcoming US Supreme Court hearing of a case from New York regarding COVID-19-related restrictions on religious services. The court previously elected not to lift such restrictions in Nevada and California. "The general question in all of the cases is whether government officials or judges should calibrate responses to the public health crisis," the New York Times reported Monday.Dr. Clarence Lusane, author, professor and activist; and Dr. Kmt G. Shockley, professor at Howard University in the School of Education, join us to discuss the fight for racial justice in Brazil, a nation that is home to more people of African heritage than any country outside of Africa, and how the police killing of George Floyd in the US affected racial identity in the South American country.KJ Noh, peace activist, writer and teacher, joins us to discuss a dangerous situation in the far east. A Friday Reuters report said, "China will strike back against any moves that undermine its core interests, its foreign ministry said on Friday, after US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that Taiwan 'has not been a part of China.'" Can we avoid a dangerous armed conflict in the region? Alexander Mercouris, editor-in-chief of The Duran, joins us to discuss a recent warning by European Union diplomats that time is running out for UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson's administration to successfully negotiate a post-Brexit trade deal and that it may already be too late to ratify a deal if one is reached in the near future. Kathy Kelly, American peace activist and co-founding member of Voices in the Wilderness, joins us to discuss a November 12 meeting by the nations of the Group of 77 (G77) along with China regarding US sanctions against Iran.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.08.05.239020v1?rss=1 Authors: Breslawec, A. P., Wang, S., Li, C., Poulin, M. B. Abstract: The exopolysaccharide poly-{beta}-(16)-N-acetylglucosamine (PNAG) is a major structural determinant of bacterial biofilms responsible for persistent and nosocomial infections. The enzymatic dispersal of biofilms by PNAG-hydrolyzing glycosidase enzymes, such as Dispersin B (DspB), is a possible approach to treat biofilm dependent bacterial infections. The cationic charge resulting from partial de-N-acetylation of native PNAG is critical for PNAG-dependent biofilm formation. We recently demonstrated that DspB has increased catalytic activity with de-N-acetylated PNAG oligosaccharides; however, there is still little known about the molecular interaction required for DspB to bind native de-N-acetylated PNAG polysaccharides. Here, we analyze the role of anionic amino acids surrounding the catalytic pocket of DspB in PNAG substrate recognition and hydrolysis using a combination of site directed mutagenesis, activity measurements using synthetic PNAG oligosaccharide analogs, and in vitro biofilm dispersal assays. The results of these studies support a model in which bound PNAG is weakly associated with a shallow anionic groove on the DspB protein surface with recognition driven by interactions with the 1 GlcNAc residue in the catalytic pocket. An increased rate of hydrolysis for cationic PNAG was driven, in part, by interaction with D147 on the anionic surface. Moreover, we identified that a DspB mutant with improved hydrolysis of fully acetylated PNAG oligosaccharides correlates with improved in vitro dispersal of PNAG dependent Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilms. These results provide insight into the mechanism of substrate recognition by DspB and suggest a method to improve DspB biofilm dispersal activity by mutation of the amino acids within the anionic binding surface.

As parents, giving advice to children can be a challenge. Often the advice parents give comes across as nagging, controlling, belittling or over-bearing There is truth that experience is often the best teacher. Sometimes impossible to learn certain things in life without experiencing them. So just how do you help give your kids the tools to deal with a problem....without you trying to solve the problem for them. Giving advice is hard as is biting your tongue, but it is ultimately the best for our kids. Try talking about ourselves, answering a question with a question and using respectful phrases. Hopefully this will help your child make good decisions without you (and not burn down any schools....listen to hear that story). +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ REMEMBER: If you have any suggestions for topics please send through to team@daddyeatslast.com and we will be sure to include them.

Gender roles are changing and blending together and the stay-at-home dad or part time dad population is growing. More fathers than ever are participating in their children's nurturing and upbringing. The thing is that fathers and mothers come into the parenting process differently though. For the mother, the connection is biological. It's a part of her. Fathering, on the other hand, is less so. Therefore, it's important for men to learn the skills they need to be a good dad. For some guys it's more intuitive, like kicking a football, but most guys need a coach or some direction.

Trisha Pritikin was born and raised in Richland, Washington, just a couple miles from the Hanford Site, a decommissioned nuclear production complex that was operated by the United States government, on the Columbia River in Benton County, Washington. Her father worked around the reactors, overseeing operations. Eventually, the family moved away, but at the age of 18, Pritikin began to develop health problems she believes were caused by childhood exposure to radioactive iodine and other toxic radionuclides that were released from chemical separations at Hanford. Pritikin tells her story and explains her background. As she explains, the Hanford Site as part of the government's early plutonium production. She outlines the process they used and how toxins were released into the air and water. Pritikin's health deteriorated over time due to an undiagnosed autoimmune thyroid disorder known as Hashimoto's disease, and other related health issues. Pritikin explains the depth at which residents of the area were exposed to harmful radiation, and how, surprisingly, the public was never really informed for years and years. She talks about the many cancers that people of the area experienced, and how it is easy to see the connection. Pritikin talks about her efforts to make an impact, and the 24-year litigation that went on and on in an effort to gain settlements for plaintiffs. She talks about her book of stories, stories of people who suffered, and the release of her book. Continuing, she discusses her efforts to spread the word about dangerous exposures and provides information on some of their websites and info for the public.
Listen to today's episode of FROM THE ALTAR - Daily Devotional with Pst. Femi Mike Alabi. ...GOD's Word to lift you up
Frustrated in circling around in your life with situations you "thought" you had resolved? Coming to a cyclical impasse in situations in your life - including relationships and physical issues? Last week, we talked about bringing the "crumbs" of what holds us back front and center, and DISPERSING them... which brought up a whole new level of resistance by the ego. "No, not that! We HAVE to hold on to this because..." For some, the resistance made it feel really yucky, until one remembered to DISPERSE it... This week, we've gone to the "next level"... uncovered those "yucky" hidden things. Where it comes from, how many layers are connected to it (in all kinds of directions), and letting it all go once and for all!
After the expansion to the inner multiverse and expanding into wholeness, including the All last week... it leads us into recognizing and reclaiming our power to simply observe and DISPERSE anything clogging up and limiting expansion. This can include thunderclouds, traffic jams, a limiting block in your life, a physical ailment... you name it. This week, we look at the collective energies that have built up and letting them disperse easily and free of attachment. Sounds easy, right? That all depends on our choices...
Joshua Brisco and Beards McFly learn the differences between dispersions and aspersions, debate the validity of soup as a meal and begin to catch up on the Stupid Sports Calendar.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A lot of news on the crypto front. More importantly on the Steem blockchain there are things happening that are way out there! Dispersing the power, a "separation of powers" actually being put into action is what puts Steem way ahead of many if not most, or in fact ALL of its competitors. Not only the fact that it is being put into action, but the way it is being done, being done in a "grass roots" fashion, where the people make it happen. Lets not forget, Steem has what others only dream of, we have the greatest asset on this planet, HUMAN RESOURCES. Such a diverse range of human resources that it is possibly the greatest thing to happen in the world of crypto and blockchain technology, we already see numerous other endeavours trying to copy Steem in this and good on them, all the power to them, I sincerely hope it happens. We are finally making things happen that were only "talked about" less than a decade ago. So much positive energy out there, so much positivity that it makes me want to shout and tell the entire world about it all. Steem on! Yours truly @jackmiller

You may not actually be in the business you think you're in. How do you find out? Being confused about what business you are really in is a common business mistake. And most entrepreneurs really are confused about it. Dispersing the fog around it can mean the difference between closing shop and having a thriving business for decades. You'll understand this perfectly once you hear why Starbucks isn't in the business of making coffee. And you'll see how important this is as I help an audience member discover her true business so she can take her consulting practice to the next level.

He will conceal you with his wings; you will not fear the terror of the night. Psalm 90(91) He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High and abides in the shade of the Almighty says to the Lord: ‘My refuge, my stronghold, my God in whom I trust!’ It is he who will free you from the snare of the fowler who seeks to destroy you; he will conceal you with his pinions and under his wings you will find refuge. You will not fear the terror of the night nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the plague that prowls in the darkness nor the scourge that lays waste at noon. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand fall at your right, you, it will never approach; his faithfulness is buckler and shield. Your eyes have only to look to see how the wicked are repaid, you who have said: ‘Lord, my refuge!’ and have made the Most High your dwelling. Upon you no evil shall fall, no plague approach where you dwell. For you has he commanded his angels, to keep you in all your ways. They shall bear you upon their hands lest you strike your foot against a stone. On the lion and the viper you will tread And trample the young lion and the dragon. Since he clings to me in love, I will free him; Protect him for he knows my name. When he calls I shall answer: ‘I am with you.’ I will save him in distress and give him glory. With length of life I will content him; I shall let him see my saving power. Ant. He will conceal you with his wings; you will not fear the terror of the night.

This week I'm going to pull back the curtain and share what I believe have been my seven against business mistakes, and what you can learn from them. Announcements: JV Alert, July 26-28 NAMS Conference, August 9-11 SCORRE Conference, October 14-17 Platform Conference, November 3-5 Tip Of The Week Apple Voice Memos is a fantastic recording studio in your pocket. Spiritual Foundations But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. Hebrews 8:6 Sometimes when trials come our way, we think God is giving us a test. Or that he is “shaping our character”. I have heard people say things like, “It wasn't until I got cancer that my family came together. So I know that was God's plan for my life.” Often, people in these situations will cite the book of Job as support for this position. Let me be clear: God is not the author of evil. And cancer is evil. Many will point to the book of Job, or other places in the Old Testament, and say, “See, this is where God was judging a person… sending a spirit of sickness on a person… causing evil things to happen to a person or nation.” And then they will quote Scripture to say that God is “the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.” Such thinking misses the point. Yes, God is the same. But his covenant has changed. God has always been merciful. He has always been good. He has always been the healer, the restorer, the protector. The old covenant was given because God's people demanded it. It is not what he wanted for the, but they stood their ground in the desert and demanded that Moses go up and bring them back the law. The book of Job is a book of bad theology, presented as bad theology. Job's friends, the ones who sat around and speculated about why God sent tragedy Job's way (as punishment for sin, to shape his character, etc.) got it wrong. God himself said so in the book. Jesus, Scripture tells us, is the perfect mirror representation of the Father. Anything that you think about the Father, but which contradicts what you see demonstrated in the life of Jesus, is simply wrong. Jesus healed every person who came to him. He was merciful. He was joyful. And he never once imparted cancer, poverty, divorce, tragedy, or accidents to anyone in order to teach them a lesson. Does God make all things work together for good? Yes. Can he use any situation in our lives as an opportunity for us to learn and grow? Yes. And keep in mind that he clearly promises us, among other things, divine health, divine wealth, peace… In fact he promises us that we will “prosper in all things, even as your soul prospers.” Feature Segment: My Biggest Business Mistakes Many business coaches and mentors are happy to tell you about their successes. Most are not so quick to share stories of their failures, because they worry that this will diminish their positioning in your eyes. The problem is: it's from failure that we may learn some of our most valuable lessons. Today, I'm going to share what I consider to be seven of my biggest business mistakes, what I learned from them, and what I feel you can take away from them as well. Ray's Seven Biggest Business Mistakes Not starting soon enough. How I hesitated to strike out on my own. Going into debt. The borrower is slave to the lender. Accepting clients I knew were a bad fit. The “Client Who Ate My Calendar” story Failing to establish clear boundaries. “No, I can't take your call at 11pm on Saturday/” Moving too slowly. Ideas lose fire as the clock ticks. Failure to focus. Dispersing your forces weakens your impact. Lacking simultaneous execution. Just so I can contradict #6… Want To Be On Next Week's Show?

Dispersing the wisdom of 60 years in the ministry, John Bisagno focused the 2012 Send North America Conference attendees on obtaining the proper balance to ensure a lasting ministry during a Tuesday lunchtime main session.
Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.04.17.046953v1?rss=1 Authors: Flyer-Adams, J. G., Rivera-Rodriguez, E. J., Mardovin, J., Yu, J., Griffith, L. C. Abstract: Dissociation between the output of the circadian clock and external environmental cues is a major cause of human cognitive dysfunction. While the effects of ablation of the molecular clock on memory have been studied in many systems, little has been done to test the role of specific clock circuit output signals. To address this gap, we examined the effects of mutation of Pigment-dispersing factor (Pdf) and its receptor, Pdfr on associative memory in male and female Drosophila. Loss of PDF signaling significantly decreases the ability to form associative memory. Appetitive short-term memory (STM), which in wildtype is time-of-day (TOD)-independent, is decreased across the day by mutation of Pdf or Pdfr, but more substantially in the morning than in the evening. This defect is due to PDFR expression in adult neurons outside the core clock circuit and the mushroom body Kenyon cells. The acquisition of a TOD difference in mutants implies the existence of multiple oscillators that act to normalize memory formation across the day for appetitive processes. Interestingly, aversive STM requires PDF but not PDFR, suggesting that there are valence-specific pathways downstream of PDF that regulate memory formation. These data argue that the circadian clock uses circuit-specific and molecularly diverse output pathways to enhance the ability of animals to optimize responses to changing conditions.
