Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2022.12.23.521820v1?rss=1 Authors: D'Elia, K. P., Hameedy, H., Goldblatt, D., Frazel, P., Kriese, M., Zhu, Y., Hamling, K. R., Kawakami, K., Liddelow, S. A., Schoppik, D., Dasen, J. S. Abstract: Locomotion requires precise control of the strength and speed of muscle contraction and is achieved by recruiting functionally-distinct subtypes of motor neurons (MNs). MNs are essential to movement and differentially susceptible in disease, but little is known about how MNs acquire functional subtype-specific molecular features during development. Using single cell RNA profiling in larval zebrafish, we identify novel and conserved molecular signatures for MN functional subtypes, and identify genes expressed in both early post-mitotic and mature MNs. Assessing MN development in genetic mutants, we define a molecular program essential for MN functional subtype specification. Two evolutionarily-conserved transcription factors, Prdm16 and Evi1, are both functional subtype-specific determinants integral for fast MN development. Loss of prdm16 or evi1 causes fast MNs to develop transcriptional profiles and innervation similar to slow MNs. These results reveal the molecular diversity of vertebrate spinal MNs and demonstrate that functional subtypes are specified through intrinsic transcriptional codes.

What impact are you making moment by moment?  It is all too easy to believe that what we do has little impact on others or the environment but the reality is very different.  We create a living legacy moment by moment through our words and actions or lack of them – simply by how we turn up moment by moment.  Craig Goldblatt and I explore how each of us can magnify our impact on the world in a positive way.

The Enhancers is a polyvocal novel that follows three teenage friends coming of age in a technopharmaceutical society. Hannah is born and raised in a town whose industry revolves around Lumena Corp., maker of the supplement Valedictorian. When Hannah and her friends start taking Valedictorian, or V., a mandated mental augmentation, they start to witness its untoward effects--Celia is institutionalized after an accidental druginduced psychotic break, and not long after Hannah's mental stability begins to slip. When a factory fire halts production, it threatens to throw the entire town into withdrawal. The Enhancers questions who we are when defined by our ability to process information. With mental augmentation as a baseline: how do we know ourselves, and what does it take to break free from this alienation?   Join us for a conversation between author Anne K. Yoder and fellow writer/editor for The Enhancers, Amanda Goldblatt. This episode is hosted by Justin Remer.   _______________________________________________   Produced by Nat Freeman, Lance Morgan, & Michael Kowaleski.

Are you one of the growing number of people who would like to leave a legacy in this world? I'm not talking about leaving your house or your savings to loved ones but creating something which will live on – why wait? I believe it is important to create a living legacy in the way we live each moment. Craig Goldblatt joins me today as we explore how creating a difference externally starts with focusing on the inner work – that of reducing judgement and of learning to truly love ourselves.

From a random bill that needs to get paid, to something you need to get fixed in the house, to your kids refusing to go to school, to the rent being due, to the deadline, etc and you just feel like you're the ball constantly getting knocking back and forth between the flappers in the machine. That you can't quite get to where you want to go, because every little thing that life is throwing at you is interrupting the path of where you're trying to go. It's everything else's fault. But that's not how it works. You are the Creator. You are controlling the buttons on the side of the machine! And each one of those knocks is exactly where you are actually meant to go. The brilliant and inspirational, Lori Paige, joins me to discuss the shift in perspective and feel the difference in your daily life!

In this episode about the talent shortage issue in Australia, Leo is interviewing Craig Goldblatt, Vice President of Partners & Alliances for Globalization Partners business in Asia.  Is Australia's talent shortage and skills gap issue real? What is the Australian government doing to address the problem? And what are some solutions for Australian businesses to leverage? Facing a shrinking talent pool and widening skills gap, Australian companies seem to be struggling to hire locally. A shrinking population and closed borders due to the pandemic further exacerbates the situation.  But international borderless hiring is quickly emerging as a viable solution.   Through remote hiring, Australian companies can now cast a wider net and hire the best talent located anywhere in the world. With some skillsets geographically concentrated in specific talent hubs, remote hiring also provides cost-effective access to these highly sought-after professionals.  Additionally, the Australian government recently launched initiatives to encourage and promote international hiring.  Although the benefits for remote hiring are plentiful, companies must stay on top of compliance risks and administrative nightmares surrounding legal, tax, and contractual specificities.  In this episode, Leo interviews Craig Goldblatt, Vice President of Partners & Alliances for Globalization Partners, as they discuss Australia's talent shortage, tips on growing remotely, and tools and management strategies companies can deploy today.  For more insight into the Australian talent shortage and alternate talent hubs for your business to hire from, check out Globalization Partner's latest blog.  Learn more about Globalization Partners here: https://www.globalization-partners.com/goglobal/    Become a member of the Startup&angels community (free) >> https://startupsandangels.ramenlife.co/home and build your network, find your investor, meet your co-founder, share with your peers, connect with customers and make things happen!

Visit the Code for Charlottesville website to learn more, including details on projects that are underway. In today’s installment:Albemarle Supervisors are briefed on status on economic development planning exercise for the area around the Woolen MillsA conversation about policing and security at public housing sitesA new creative director at Live ArtsMartinsville and Henry County agree on reversionThis show is nearly a year old now, having launched to the public the second week of July during the pandemic. Sometimes the various segments come together as a theme. Sometimes, there are just things I want to get on the record, somewhere. In today’s show and for much of this first week of June, there will be a lot of catching up. There’s a new artistic director at Live Arts. Susan E. Evans will take over effective today, arriving from the San Francisco Bay area where she most recently ran the 187-seat Old Town Theatre in Lafayette, California. Before that, she was artistic director at the Douglas Morrison Theatre in Hayward, California and before that she was with the Eastenders Repertory Company, also in the Bay area. “I am drawn to the active verb in Live Arts’ mission: forging—theater and community striving toward bringing folx together, vigorously exchanging perspectives through art,” Evans is quoted in a press release. There were over 140 applications for the position. Live Arts was founded in 1990. The city of Martinsville and Henry County in southside Virginia have reached an agreement in which Martinsville will revert to a town. In late April, the two governing bodies met in a mediated closed session according to the minutes of the May meeting of the Virginia Commission on Local Government. That body must approve the agreement when it is finalized. According to the Martinsville Bulletin, the seven-member Martinsville City Council and the six-member Henry County Board of Supervisors met at a joint meeting on May 26 and agreed on a rough sketch of a memorandum of agreement for the reversion. The agreement doesn’t specify when the reversion will take place, but the two parties have agreed to let the Commission on Local Government pick the date. In 2019, the Albemarle County Economic Development Department began a planning study of the roadway that leads to the Woolen Mills factory, a historic property that has renovated in recent years by developer Brian Roy. The main entrance is along Broadway Avenue, which extends from Carlton Avenue at the border between the city of Charlottesville and Albemarle County. In all, there are about 45 acres of land that were the subject of an interim study presented to the Board of Supervisors in November of 2019. “The goal at that time was to leverage the public and private investment that had taken place and projected to take place at the Woolen Mills redevelopment and the Willow Tree relocation at that site,” said J.T. Newberry in the economic development department. Much of the land is zoned for light industrial use, and several businesses are operating in the area. Construction of the new Woolen Mills Industrial Park is underway. The Board of Supervisors was to have seen the results of an implementation study in April 2020, but the pandemic put a pause on the work.“Nevertheless we have tried to stay engaged with stakeholders on the corridor,” Newberry said. “There have been a number of projects that have continued on the private side.”After the interim study, Albemarle staff met with city staff at least twice, and the blueprint has been run by the Planning Commission, the Economic Development Authority, and the Office of Equity and Inclusion. The latter suggested a new approach to the project following the signing of a memorandum of understanding on the topic by Charlottesville, Albemarle County and the University of Virginia. Roger Johnson is the director of economic development for Albemarle.“We are going to pause our project and go back and review the Broadway corridor through an equity lens,” Johnson said. “We don’t know if that will change anything substantively or not but we expect that it will.” That will include a meeting with the city’s new Deputy City Manager of Racial Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, Ashley Marshall. Next steps could include creation of a business association for the area, similar to the Downtown Crozet Association. Another would be to create an arts and cultural district for the location. “Some other types of activities we are contemplating are to complete pedestrian and bike connectivity, multimodal streetscape, enhanced public transportation,” Johnson said. Those activities are now considered to be long-term goals. A map of the area covered by the Broadway BlueprintThe Piedmont Master Gardeners and Virginia Cooperative Extension will host an online presentation by author Douglas Tallamy on “The Nature of Oaks” at 7 p.m. Thursday, June 3. Admission is $15. Register by 5 p.m. Wednesday, June 2, at piedmontmastergardeners.org/events to reserve a spot in the program. A longtime professor at the University of Delaware and author of widely acclaimed books such as Bringing Nature Home and Nature’s Best Hope, Tallamy has shown how we can help save nature’s ecological riches in our own backyards. In his latest book, The Nature of Oaks, he explains how adding native oak trees to our home landscapes is one of the best ways to help heal the planet. At the beginning of May, a contract for a security firm to patrol public housing sites lapsed.  At the same, a series of shootings has taken place, including an April 30 incident at Westhaven where bullets struck multiple vehicles and apartment buildings. The Board of Commissioners of the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority discussed the matter at their meeting on Monday, May 24.  Commissioner Laura Goldblatt is a member of the CRHA safety committee and had an update. “There was a lot of discussion and has been a lot of discussion at the past few about the roles that residents want to see for police and what they want policing to look like in their neighborhoods but also the role that they want various community-based safety initiatives to play,” Goldblatt said. “And also a perceived lack of services or a desire for creativity around certain services so we spent a lot of time discussing mental health and trauma services.”Goldblatt said there is a need for trauma counselors who understand the experience of living in public housing. She said some residents have anxiety about the lack of security services at the moment. “I know we have been working towards a [request for proposals] about the various kinds of services we would sent out for,” Goldblatt said. Charlottesville Mayor Nikuyah Walker said she’s been meeting Police Chief RaShall Brackney and CRHA Executive Director John Sales about the security issue.“Chief Brackney’s position is that in response to the security firm no longer being present, that they are being asked to increase police presence and this is coming on the heels of a lot of change but a loud community to not having cameras, not having police presence and now there is a request for that increase,” Walker said. “From a community that is asking to defund, where there is being a significant amount of resources being spent on increased patrol on the Thursday, Friday, and Saturday time frame right now.”Charlottesville Police have stepped up patrols in the past few weeks to prevent additional shootings. Chief Brackney is seeking a letter from CRHA about the rules of engagement for future patrols in order to ensure everyone in the community is on the same page with regards to why officers are there. “So that we could be clear that as we were being asked to increase our presence in the community, as we were being asked to use whatever tools and technologies that we have to be able to respond to the increase in violence in the community, as well as the fact that as of May 2, there was no security team or security profile there in the community,” Brackney said. Chief Brackney said she wants the letter to guard against comments from the community about over-policing.“So when there is a lot of presence, I want the community to understand that this is something the residents are asking for of us as well,” Brackney said. Brackney said as of May 20, there had been 121 shootings in the city, with many of them taking place on or near CRHA properties. She said that’s up 51 percent over this time last year. Shelby Edwards, the executive director of the Public Housing Association of Residents, said she was not certain her organization was ready to sign such a letter. “And I love and appreciate the idea of uniformity as far as approach but what I think we always  wonder as we continue to serve the community, if we sign a letter that says we co-signed, and to be clear to the public, we have not co-signed anything, there is no letter quite yet, I just wonder if anyone goes down on CPD’s watch, how would that look for us?”Walker said she supported an agreement because it could set up better relations between police and the community into the future as people in positions of power change. “In the past, police have just come into the community and policed how they want,” Walker said. “I think creating this kind of partnership, having it in writing also gives an example of what future policing looks like if its needed and hopefully we can prevent some of the harm by organization like CRHA and PHAR being able to say ‘hey, this is what we did in 2021 and we want to follow a model similar to that.’”Goldblatt said if there is to be an increase in police presence at public housing sites, she wanted additional mental health services. Chief Brackney said she understood and hoped that police presence would not be required in the future.“I would also wish that we should understand and appreciate that police presence isn’t the only things that are triggering events in our communities,” Brackney said. “It would seem to me that the reasons we’re getting called there should be triggering events for our communities as well. And I’m sure they are. I come from those communities and grew up in those communities.”For the past four weekend, four officers have been dedicated overnight to sites Westhaven, South First Street and Sixth Street and there have been no shootings. “Police presence does make a difference,” Brackney said. “We also know that police presence, people will find a different place to go, and they will find another pathway so we have to be careful that we don’t push it into another community or another area, but that we get to the root causes of it to start.”CRHA Executive Director John Sales said in an email to me today that so far there is no letter, but one is in the works. Stay tuned and more from this CRHA meeting in an upcoming episode of this program.Thanks for reading!

On Wednesday, members of the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors and senior staff gathered at Darden Towe Park to cut the ribbon on a new van that will be used to support community engagement efforts. Jeff Richardson is the county executive.“It is really good to be with everyone today and I think it’s very fitting that today we are at Darden Towe Park, which I would like everyone to know was our busiest park over the last 14 months  as we’ve worked through this crisis,” Richardson said. County Executive Jeffrey Richardson in person at the kickoff eventIn all, the parks system had a million visitors in the last year as people sought open space. This event was the first in-person celebration of a county service since January 31, 2020. “And on January 31, 2020, we had skate night at Yancey School Community Center, which was the kickoff for the community programming at that new community center,” Richardson said. Supervisor Ned Gallaway said the idea for the van came about last summer as community engagement staff visited parts of Albemarle.“They were popping up in the county at country stores, neighborhoods, parks with regularity to distribute cloth face coverings as needed,” Gallaway said. “And a lot of time went into packing and moving and unpacking materials and stuff spent the events out in the elements for several hours. This van provides a central location to store things and move materials.”The money for the van came from the county’s share of federal pandemic relief funds. But, the event was not just to show off the new community engagement van. The event was held to showcase the series of little libraries by stocking them with a pamphlet on Monacan history written by the late Karenne Wood and Diane Shields. Shields’ and her daughter Teresa Pollak spoke at the event. Let’s hear a long segment.“The land we are on is but a small portion of land inhabited by people who called themselves Yesan, which means ‘the people,’” said Teresa Pollak.  “[The people] inhabited the land in the interior portion of what today we call Virginia from the New River to the fall line at Richmond for hundreds of generations before the arrival of Europeans. Through years of warfare, disease, forced migration, and broken treaties, the original people were reduced to a fraction of their original members, living on a small portion of their original land. They were forced into assimilation by the dominant culture. “The descendants of the original inhabitants are still here today. I am one of those descendants. We are known as Monacan and we understand that the land is the people, and the people is the land and we are not strangers on any of that land that was once considered our territory. As we are able to have air to breathe, water to drink, remember that the original people, my ancestors have been stewards of the land for centuries and they have made it possible for us to enjoy many of our natural resources that we still have.” Diane Shields spoke as well.“For so many generations, the Monacan people were overlooked, or misdiagnosed, or miscalculated, or mis a lot of things,” Shields said. “Our people have been classified as different races than what they were. A lot of that has been corrected. I’m sure all of you are familiar with the Racial Integrity Law. That was a very difficult time for our people as well as all the other Indian communities because of the way we were classified. But those times are pretty much behind us. Now we work with the state to be able to correct birth certificates.” To learn more, go visit a county park and pick up the pamphlet.Teresa Pollak (left) and Diane Shields (right) The Rivanna River meanders down from Darden-Towe Park to Riverview Park which is on the western shore in the city of Charlottesville. Just in time for the Rivanna River Fest, work has wrapped up on an initiative to replace a boat launch and stairway at the park which washed away this past winter. According to a city press release, Woolen Mills resident Bill Emory approached the city this March with a plan to put in a new stairway using donated materials and labor. The Rivanna River Company, the Rivanna Conservation Alliance, and the Piedmont Environmental Council helped coordinate construction, which took place over a three-day period earlier this month. “The result is a new and improved river access point stairway engineered to withstand exposure to strong currents and future flooding events,” reads the press release. Credit: Gabe Silver, Rivanna River CompanyWe’re living in these days, but others have lived here before, spending days in built environments that are no longer with us and places of work that have long been out of business. In southern Albemarle and northern Nelson County, the Alberene Soapstone Company for many years operated out a quarry in Schuyler, fueling the economic fortunes of the village of Esmont.  Peggy Denby of the group Friends of Esmont is hoping to encourage the Albemarle Historic Preservation Committee and the county to take note of the remnants of the former quarry.“They’re beautiful,” Denby said. “I just wanted somebody to know other than me that these things do exist. And I think a story could be written to talk about every one of the pieces of building that are discovered and the process that happened when the quarry was operational.”This includes a canal, a system of trains, and so many other functions that are now gone. The land is in private ownership now. Denby wants the county to consider buying the land. Supervisor Ann Mallek said she purchased material directly from the quarry back in the 1980’s. “It is an incredible place but it will take a special owner to facilitate telling the story,” Mallek said. Mallek pointed out that most of the parkland the county receives comes about my donation. That’s been the case for the Byrom Reserve, Preddy Creek and the new Brook Hill river park. *You’re reading Charlottesville Community Engagement.

That’s raising the concern of some Charlottesville residents who are concerned that hotter nights may lead to violence. Laura Goldblatt is one of seven commissioners on the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority, and at Monday’s CRHA Board meeting, she reported from the Safety Committee, which has been reviewing what comes next when a contract with a security firm expires this May. “If there’s going to be security or any groups in public housing communities, the ways that they want them to behave, the ways that they want to behave, what they expect from them, and what they think safety means to them,” Goldblatt said. “The other thing that I’ve heard very clearly from residents in those meetings is a real sense of urgency. People are really concerned about the change in the seasons and the summer coming on and they feel they need a concrete and firm plan and they need to understand what’s going on and they need that to be communicated.”Work has now begun on both renovation of Crescent Halls and construction of new units at the South First Street site. CRHA Chair Betsy Roettger said the time is coming when the CRHA’s development subcommittee will soon turn its attention to what will come next for redevelopment. “We really need to get moving on what we’re going to do next, the next moves and get it in front of residents quickly to get feedback,” Roettger said. Roettger said many of the new CRHA commissioners are relatively new to the group and it would be good for them to get a sense of how the CRHA got to this point.  “It needs to be soon because we’re going to be moving quickly with whatever site is next due to the tax credit application cycle,” Roettger said. The next deadline to apply for low-income housing tax credits from Virginia Housing is next March. There will be an update on redevelopment at a committee meeting next Thursday that members said they would attend, but the idea of an in-person retreat was floated. One Commission said she would prefer to continue meeting virtually for the foreseeable future. Virtual meetings are allowed under the state of emergency, but won’t be once Governor Ralph Northam lifts the order. David Oberg is the legal counsel for the CRHA.“State law does not allow at this point, but it’s very possible it’s going to be changed but at this moment, if the governor removes his emergency order, all local entities will be required to meet in person,” Oberg said. Roettger said she felt the in-person meetings had a dynamic to them created by the physical space in City Council Chambers.“To have us all sitting up high and residents that come sitting in the seats looking up,” Roettger said. There were other updates at the April 26 meeting as well. The wait list for federal housing vouchers opened for a week long period in late March. John Sales is the CRHA executive director. “We now have a total of 1,311 individuals on the waiting list for the [Housing Choice Voucher] program,” Sales said. “We’ve sent out 50 eligibility letters. About a fifth of those are living in public housing now.” Work at Crescent Halls is now underway, according to CRHA Deputy Director Kathleen Glenn-Matthews.“There’s a construction fence up, gravel driveway in the back, they’re getting prepped on the 8th floor,” Glenn-Matthews said. “Work on the first floor is starting May 17 and the substantial completion date right now is set for November 25, 2022.” Residents involved in planning for the second phase of the South First Street redevelopment have begun to meet once more. There was a meeting last night, in fact. The CRHA was awarded low-income housing tax credits for that project in the 2020 cycle. *Mixing up the end here to let you know about an upcoming podcast coming up that celebrates a place none of us have been able to go to for a year - Italy! Tour guide Tullia Maffei hasn’t been able to lead any of her usual adventures, but during the pandemic she teamed up with award winning journalist and producer, Allison Salerno to bring a little bit of that country’s people to your kitchen table or wherever you listen to your podcasts.
