Abstract: Attenuated Bordetella pertussis represents a promising candidate for nasal delivery of heterologous vaccine antigens. Filamentous hemagglutinin, a major B. pertussis adhesin, has so far been used as the carrier, inducing local and systemic murine immune responses against the heterologous antigen upon nasal administration of the live recombinant bacteria. This project has investigated the B. pertussis autotransporter BrkA as carrier to expose foreign antigens at the bacterial surface. We fused three copies of the neutralizing peptide SP70 from the Enterovirus 71 VP1 capsid protein within the BrkA passenger domain and expressed this in a highly attenuated B. pertussis strain. A recombinant with three copies of SP70 inserted in FHA was also constructed. Both BrkA-(SP70)3 and FHA-(SP70)3 chimera were successfully surface-exposed and secreted respectively. Nasal administration of the former triggered significantly higher murine anti-SP70 neutralizing titers than the latter, clearly indicating BrkAb s potential as a heterologous antigen carrier in attenuated B. pertussis.

as I promised I will start with Groups and Categories in MS PROJECT SERVER 2010. When you install MS PROJECT SERVER 2010 it comes with seven built-in groups, and five built in categories.
Administrators – Users in this group have all permissions to do everything. BE VARY CAREFUL when you assign user to this group!
Team members – They can use Project Webb Access, but they have limited permission on the project-level permissions. When you add new user on the system this is the default group for him/her!
On the first section of the screen you can enter Name and Description of the group. You can also add Users that belong to this group. You can see that users Project Manager #1, and Project Manager #2 are already in this group. Keep in mind that I did not add them to this group from this screen, but I added them when through Manage Users screen, which will be part of some of my next Posts! Also notice that this group is in “relationship” with My Organization, and My Project Categories, which I mentioned before.
Now, the explanation!!! Group permissions are Project Web App Permissions (which I had explained in my previous post), and you can change them here for each group!!! And those permissions are what can you do as a, in this example, Project Manager. You can see at the bottom of the screen Set permissions with template where you can choose predefined Templates and apply permissions from this template to specific group! I will cover that also in some of my next posts!
For example, Project Managers group has New Project, Open Project, and Publish Project permissions, but NOT Approve Timesheet permission. If you want him to have that permission click on Allow!
OK! Now we know that particular group tell you what can you do! What are Categories?
Categories are…. read my next Post!

Gp120 is the predominant band in WB.
Full length native protein, from strain IIIB.
Estimated molar HRP:IgG substitution is 2-3. Free enzyme is absent.
Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab53840 in the following tested applications.
HIV1 is equipped with the envelope gp160 glycoprotein for interaction with Langerhans cells (LCs) and dendritic cells (DCs), the members of the innate immune system, which confront the virus at the portal of virus entry in the human body. These cells are equipped with receptors by which they bind and endocytose the virus. The gp120 glycoprotein is used for binding to CD4 receptor and CCR5 co-receptor of T helper 2 (Th2) cells, and is able to induce FcepsilonRI(+) hematopoietic cells to produce IL4, which inactivates the host adaptive immune response.
Publishing research using ab53840? Please let us know so that we can cite the reference in this datasheet.
Can you tell me if these products are from the same origin (ab21179, ab20105, ab20262, ab20008, ab53840, ab53937).I am looking for the non-conjugated form of ab53937 and ab20105.
Thank you for your enquiry. These 4 products (ab21179, ab20105, ab20262, ab20008) were produced from the same goat antiserum. Catalog ab21179 is the purified antibody. The purified antibody is then labeled to produce the other catalog numbers: Biotin (ab20105), FITC (ab20262), HRP (ab20008). Meanwhile, ab53840 and ab53937 originate from the same goat antisera. Unfortunately, we do not have the unconjugated version of these antibodies in our catalog but I may check with the originator if it is available. Please let me know if you would like to proceed with an order.

A key moment in the history I retell with my book, a story of anti-establishment and enlightened artists.
You'll be able to read more in the 10th chapter of my book, Out of the Comfort Zone, which release was delayed unfortunately until September 2018.
In London, British people and foreigners demonstrated against the start of the war in Iraq, in February 2003. Many came from Bristol.
Listen and hear how it is still relevant for today! How it all led us to where we are now, with enflamed regions in the Middle-East and war-going leaders in the West.
Two million protested against war in Iraq in London on February 15, 2003, amid global demonstrations comprising the biggest protest event in world history. As Channel 4 News reported, the war was "historically unpopular" and the "mother of all focus groups" had descended on London to bring that fact home to Tony Blair.
Thousands of anti-war protesters have marched through London in a demonstration against the military air strikes on Afghanistan. The CND-led march from Marble Arch to Trafalgar Square reflected growing concern in some quarters over the US-led bombardment, Police said about 20,000 people had taken part in Saturday's demonstration, which followed the sixth night of US air strikes. BBC say at least 750,000.
Anti-war rally outside parliament attended by members of ruling party. Among them attending were Damon Albarn (Blur, Gorillaz, etc.) and Robert Del Naja (Massive Attack).
From the interview talking about 'We Are Many' the documentary made about the 3 million strong march and demonstration in London against the second Gulf War in March 2003.

In 1956, a novel, written by a then-unknown author named Grace Metalious, was published by Fawcett Books. Written under the working title THE TREE AND THE BLOSSOM, Fawcett changed the title and released the novel as PEYTON PLACE.
By the time the dust had all cleared, PEYTON PLACE had sold twenty million hardcover copies and twelve million more in paperback. It remained on the New York Times Best-Seller List for 55 weeks.
Naturally, a movie would have to follow. And in February, 1958, the Twentieth Century Fox film hit the movie screens. To say it was a smash would be an understatement.
It's initial Rowan County engagement, at the CAPITOL THEATRE, ran for twelve days. Very few films ran that long in a town the size of Salisbury during the 1950s.
The movie, just as the novel, was condemned by many churches worldwide as being totally immoral. It's probably fair to say that many of those who spoke against it on Sunday went to see it on Monday, then went back to see it again on Thursday.
Today, PEYTON PLACE seems as tame as TOY STORY. The film revitalized the career of Lana Turner and made a star of Hope Lange.
Then in 1964, PEYTON PLACE became a prime-time television series on ABC, enjoying equal success, running as many as three episodes each week. By the time the series was canceled in 1969, 514 episodes had been produced. The series made superstars of Mia Farrow and Ryan O'Neal.
As for the woman who started it all - - suffering from cirrhosis of the liver from years of heavy drinking, Grace Metalious died February 25, 1964 at the age of 39. Sounds as if she lived in her own little PEYTON PLACE.
That is the number of days M*A*S*H played Salisbury movie screens. That is a lot. Over three calendar months.
Here was a movie, adapted for the screen by Ringgold Wilmer "Ring" Lardner Jr., once an American journalist and screenwriter blacklisted during the Red Scare of the late 1940s and 1950s and the last surviving member of the Hollywood Ten at the time of his death in 2000.
A movie about the Korean War released during the Vietnam War. Risky, many in the industry said. But Twentieth Century Fox took a chance, and the chance reaped huge dividends, both on the theatre screen and the TV screen as well.
M*A*S*H played sixteen different times in Salisbury (the initial engagement lasted three weeks).
During the World War II years, the average American went to the movies three times per week.
The film studios produced lots of great movies during that time, and the U.S. public, living a life of fear and concern, sought entertainment. The movies provided that entertainment. Remember, there was not yet televison in the American home.
The usual theatre program during the early-to-mid 1940s included a full-length feature (of course), but also a cartoon, comedy or travelogue and the latest newsreel.
The newsreel was as important to home front Americans as was the feature. Here they could see the first video representation of the war events they had heard on the radio and read in the newspaper two-to-three weeks earlier.
Besides churches, the small-town movie theatres were the most common places of assembly. To support the war effort, patrons bought millions of dollars of War Bonds at their local movie houses.

Is the amount of paint is needed to cover the inside of the horn finite or infinite?
Not any surface of revolution that looks like a horn has this property, but one that is based on the function \(y=1/x\) does, and is the one called "Gabriel's Horn". For \(1\le x\le \infty \), it has finite volume but infinite surface area. But because the thickness of the paint inside the horn cannot exceed the radius, when we compute the volume of the paint assuming a thickness of \(1/x\) as \(x\rightarrow \infty \), the total volume of the paint does drop down to zero, not infinity, and thus the paradox is resolved.
I doubt if that is a paradox. A finite volume of paint can always have an infinite area and can be used to paint an infinite area because the paint is infinitesimally thin.
Moreover, the finite paint can paint an infinite area because an object with finite volume can have infinte surface area just like the horn.
Any one explain how this gabriel horn got finite volume physically not mathematically. What is its physical interpretation?
Just looking back at this note now - what's up with my explanation? Something wrong??
This would be a true paradox if it can be shown that even if the paint is applied in an ever thinner layer as one goes deeper into the trumpet, the volumetric amount of paint becomes infinite. So, propose a function T(x), where x is axial distance from the entrance of horn, that is the thickness of the paint, less than y(x), which is the function of the curve of the horn, such that the volume becomes infinite. You can pick any T(x) and y(x), provided both are monotonic.
@John Muradeli – You're gonna bang some wild Franz Liszt pieces?
In the real world, it's obvious that such an arrangement would not occur. No paradox here.
But as far as math is concerned, then there's still no paradox: the paint is only concerned with filling the volume, NOT covering the surface area; those are two different things. The space inside the horn is the space that is inside the horn only, NOT including the space in the composition of the horn itself. Even though mathematically this horn may have a one dimensional depth (or, no depth, as some people like to say (inaccurately)) - so, it's a two-dimensional entity - it still contributes to the amount the paint has to fill. Oh, and for the record, surface area does contribute to the volume. Not going to explain this now, but it does.
So, in conclusion, if the volume is finite, the paint fills it completely, regardless of whether the surface area is finite or infinite.
Consider the amount of Area that needs to be filled vs. the amount of Volume that needs to be filled.
From integral calculus (or just a solid understanding of how areas/volumes are formed), we know that for each unit of depth of the horn, the paint has to fill \(2\pi r\) surface area units and \(\pi r^2\) volume units (note - PER UNIT implies that an additional unit of length is incorporated - thus giving the third dimension to \(r^2\) and 2nd to \(r\)). And as we may know, the volume unit shrinks much quicker than the area unit - that is, when the radius shrinks lower than \(1\).
So you can pretty much draw a sums comparison between \(p\) values - harmonics (\(r\)) diverge, whereas \(r^2\) converges. And since filling the volume with paint can alternatively be thought of as the volume of the horn itself, then since that is finite, so is paint. And as we saw above, a finite volume can cover an infinite surface area.

BURRY Port moved into fourth place in League 2 West on Saturday (Apr 6), as they beat St Clears 32-17.
However, the Saints were well in the game until, in the final ten minutes, they conceded two tries in quick succession as the Blacks took advantage.
If you saw the first twenty minutes you would have wondered who was at the bottom and who was mid table in the league; St Clears were absolutely dominant, but the failure to score was crucial and the first foray into the home side’s territory produced a try for the visitors, albeit a very good one with excellent handling skills from the dangerous visitors back division producing a touchdown in the corner for right wing Owen Thomas.
End to end play was the subsequent pattern of play with both sides pushing for the next score with Saints number 8, Owain Stacey breaking the deadlock ten minutes later with his debut try for Saints, converted by captain Adam Phillips, to put the home side in front.
It was short lived however, with a penalty conceded by Saints ten minutes later, providing the impetus for the very effective visitor‘s back division to cross in the other corner allowing left wing Thomas Bowen to restore the lead for Port at the half time break with the score at 10 points to 7.
In the second half a high tackle provided an easy penalty in front of the posts for Port’s number 10 Ben Williams and a very good kick from distance against a strong wind from Captain Phillips, thanks to the crossbar, maintained the score differential, only for an interception by Thomas Bowen to extend the lead once again with an unchallenged simple run in under the posts for his second try, which with the conversion, extended the lead to ten points.
Five minutes later in this very evenly contested challenge, left wing Jonathan Gostling finished off good work to reward the territorial advantage enjoyed by the home side for a try which, with another good conversion from Phillips, produced the finely balanced score of 17-20.
However, with ten minutes remaining, the Saints saw that narrow gap increased with two tries conceded far too easily taking the score to 17-32.
It left the Saints gutted with what they saw as another unjust result.
On Saturday (Apr 13), the Saints will look to bounce back as they travel to Mumbles while Burry Port will look to keep hold of fourth place as they travel to bottom side Tumble.
THE 38TH RUNNING of the Carmarthen Mayor’s Races returns to the town centre on May Day Bank Holiday, 6th of May. With less than a fortnight to go, online entries are now open and the whole family can get involved.
The event, now organised under Noelwyn Daniel supported by Carmarthen Town Council along with many local organisations, was established by the Councillor Peter Hughes-Griffiths, in partnership with Dr Hedydd Davies, the International athlete who has represented his country many times.
Taking place around Guildhall Square and Lammas Street, it has annually attracted over 800 runners between 3 and 80 years old every year. Supporting the event this year in a number of ways includes Stiwdio Box, G.D Harries & Sons, Rotary Club of Carmarthen, Merlin’s Walk, St.Catherine’s Walk, Charles B.Sams, Carmarthen Journal, JT Thomas, Mark Hopley Heating Services, Security 4 Wales, Mayor’s Charity Appeals Committee, WPS, Carl Morgan Building Surveyor, Spine & Sports Physio, Bowen & Weaving Ltd, Towy Works, Gwasanaethau Myrddin and Robert Lloyd PR Media Consultant.
It has hosted 25 Welsh road race championships in conjunction within the race in the period 1982 to 2006 over various distances such as a Marathon, Half Marathon and 10km.
Carmarthen Mayor’s Races Fun Run, having gone from strength to strength, takes place in the heart of the town centre, affording great opportunities to cheer on the runners.
The event raises thousands of pounds for charity with many local groups and organisations benefiting. Proceeds in 2019 will go to Carmarthen Freshstart, Carmarthen Food Bank, Carmarthen Youth Opera and Talking Books Wales.
A total of 238 runners took on the 5K challenge 12 months ago on the streets of the town with each one having their own reason to take part. The 2018 fun run was won overall by Amman Valley Harriers’ Rob Davies in a time of 17:15. He was followed in by Marc Davies of Swansea Harriers (17:53) and Liam Edwards from Carmarthen Harriers (18:15) to complete the top three. The women’s overall champion was local Harrier Wendy Price who took victory on the road in a time of 20:32.
Meanwhile, children races were popular with Seren Bowen (Y Dderwen), Gwilym Rees (Nantgaredig), Libby Hale (Newton), Llion Davies (Y Dderwen), Carys Wood (Stepaside), Mared Jones (Y Dderwen), Liam Upton-Boorman (Johnstown), Amy Tucker (St John Lloyd) and Frank Morgan (Bro Myrddin) all coming out on top in their respective school year group.
Race organiser and Triathlete Noelwyn Daniel from Healthy Life Activities urges fun run competitors to make a note of the race date in their diary.
The same routes will be in place in 2019 as the last couple of years but including the 2018 course used for the 5K that took runners in the opposite direction to previous years which means you Finish by running up into Guildhall Square. Electronic Chip Timing will again be in use for the 5K.
The day gets underway with the 3-lap Senior 5K fun run at 10.00am from opposite the bus station on Blue Street and is followed by a series of junior races over 2 laps of the route.
The Year 1 and 2 will start proceedings at 11.00am before moving up to year 3 & 4 and year 5 & 6. Concluding the day will be a secondary school year 7 and 8 race and a chance for those 6 years and under in Nursery and Reception to run a lap of the course with their parents and families.
As with all junior races, their reward will be their very own medal to take away as a finisher.
The Mayor will be on hand to help start the races and present the awards throughout the day. There’ll be trophies for the top 3 in each age group (except Nursery and Reception) as well as the following awards in the main 5K race: Males under 40, V40+, V50+, V60+, Females under 35, V35+, V45+, V55+, Best Fancy Dress, Males/Females in School Years 9 to 11 and 1st Relay Team.
Closing Date for Postal entries is Sunday 28th April 2019. Forms and cheques to be sent to: Carmarthen Town Council, St Peter’s Civic Hall, Nott Square, Carmarthen, SA31 1PG. Cheques payable to Carmarthen Fun Run.
St Peter’s Hall will be open from 8.00am on May 6th for those entering on the day. Please check out the start times of the races and ensure that you arrive in plenty of time to register and get to the start line on time. Please try and bring the correct entry fee to Registration. There will be signs above each table indicating the Race Category.
ON Wednesday (Apr 17), Felinfoel celebrated their second successive League 1 West title win as they beat Llanelli Wanderers 33-14.
Llanelli took the lead early on though as Rhydian Morgan scored a penalty. Felinfoel though hit back with two penalties of their own scored by Aled Roberts.
Rhydian Morgan then scored his second penalty to level the scores at 6-6. The home side then scored their first try of the night but the conversion was missed.
Shortly before the break Morgan completed his hat trick of penalties for the Wanderers to make it 11-9 at half time.
The Wanderers were keen to give the Champions a good game and early in the second half they went ahead as Lloyd Thomas touched down but the conversion was missed.
That gave the visitors as 11-14 lead but it was then that Felinfoel took control of the game.
They regained the lead shortly after with an unconverted try to take them two points ahead.
Felinfoel then scored a second unconverted try to make the score 21-14.
The champions then all but secured their eighteenth victory with their fourth try to earn another bonus point and the conversion from Roberts made it 28-14.
There was still time for one more try for the home side and the missed conversion left the score at 33-14.
Leon Randell scored two tries for the home side with others coming from Elliot Dawe, Jason Frater and Rhys Evans.
After the game Felinfoel received the league trophy and the celebrations began. Felinfoel now wait to see who they will play in the two-leg Championship play-off.
Mike King, Felinfoel RFC Head Coach told the Herald: “It’s a great achievement from everyone involved in the club.
“Credit has to go to the players and support staff, who without their buy in to what I wanted to achieve this would not have been impossible.
“The whole club is aligned and the continued success of the Junior structure and Youth set up has allowed us to bring in to the first team system some younger, talented players to ensure the continued success of the club.
THE Great Welsh Marathon took place in Llanelli on Sunday (Apr 14), with over 1100 athletes taking part across two races.
The third edition of the Great Welsh Marathon & Half Marathon organised by Front Runner Events was hailed an overwhelming success, with a record number of runners taking on both sold-out races.
Despite the windy Welsh weather, the runners taking on this year’s race were supported by hundreds of volunteers who turned out in their numbers to cheer the athletes. The event has almost doubled in size since 2018 and included many first timers, charity runners and club runners.
This year, the race also welcomed the largest international field so far, with over 15 nationalities represented, with some travelling as far as Australia, India, and the USA. Although the Llanelli coast may not have the tropical climate of California or Perth but it certainly has it’s own Welsh charm and stunning coastline.
One runner commented: “My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed the race, it was challenging but brilliant. My friends travelled over from San Francisco to visit and take part in the race.
Local running clubs provided a team of race pacers helping many runners achieve their personal best’s and hitting their target time on the day.
The fully marshalled race took place on the Millennium coastal path, included Brecon Carreg water stations, energy gel stops, bespoke medal, a technical finisher t-shirt and goody bag for all race finishers. Runners were also able to benefit from a much-needed pre or post-race massage provided by Gower College Swansea.
Both the full and half marathon started at Festival Fields, Llanelli before heading out to Burry Port, where the runners turned and headed back along the Millennium Coastal Path to Machynys and then back to Festival Fields.
General feedback has been fantastic, as runners took to social media to share their successes and photos with friends. The race, which was a regarded as a complete success saw lots of personal best times achieved, with the top 3 male half marathon course records beaten and most notably; the women’s first place half marathon winner shaved an impressive 12 minutes off last years record.
Race Director, David Martin-Jewell said: “The Great Welsh Marathon and Half Marathon has grown in its size and stature since we took it over in late 2016, we are thankful to the local runners who continue to support us across all of our races, however it has been fantastic to see the number on international runners travelling to Carmarthenshire to take on the Great Welsh races.
“We have a strong team of Sector Heads and volunteers who continue to assist us at each of our events, without them, we would not be able to hold such successful events so we would like to thank them for their help and support.
The event was supported by a number of local businesses, event delivery partners and also received backing from Carmarthenshire County Council Event Support Grant in 2019.
The 2020 Great Welsh Full and Half Marathon will take place on Sunday, April 5, 2020, and will have a NEW route starting and finishing in the magnificent Pembrey Country Park.

The statue, which is to be unveiled at a special ceremony at Philips Arena on March 5, 2015, will be a symbol of the Hawks’ legend’s success as a player both on and off the court. Details of the statue and the ceremony will be released at a later date.
Additionally, the Hawks have named Wilkins as Special Advisor to CEO Steve Koonin and signed the legend to a new long-term partnership. He will also continue in his role as Vice President of Basketball.
"There is no player more deserving of such an honor than Dominique for his continued commitment to the Hawks and the City of Atlanta. Beyond his amazing play on the court during his Hall-of-Fame career, he has been an ambassador for this franchise and the city for three decades," Koonin said. "For all he has accomplished and continues to do for the Hawks franchise and the City of Atlanta, we are proud to bestow this permanent recognition of his legacy."
Wilkins is the Hawks’ all-time leading scorer, ranking second in team history in steals, fourth in rebounds, sixth in blocked shots and seventh in assists. The 12th-leading scorer in league history is also a nine-time NBA All-Star and two-time Slam Dunk champion (1985, 1990).
Nicknamed ‘The Human Highlight Film’, Wilkins is one of three players in franchise history to have his uniform number (#21) retired, joining Bob Pettit and Lou Hudson. He was named to seven All-NBA teams and won a Gold Medal as a member of the United States World Championship team in 1994. Wilkins starred collegiately at the University of Georgia where he ended his career as the all-time scoring leader with averages of 21.6 points and 7.5 rebounds. A three-time All-SEC performer and Most Valuable Player of the 1981 Southeastern Conference Tournament, he was selected third overall in the 1982 NBA Draft.

Beth was so afraid of vegetables, she couldn’t even face touching them.
Beth, 25, survived off a diet of cheese sandwiches and chips.
With shaking hands abated breath, Beth picked up a tiny piece of carrot and put it into her mouth. Her partner sat close by with a huge smile across his face.
“This is amazing” her partner exclaimed. It was the first time she had put any kind of vegetable in her mouth without a panic attack.
Whilst most of us wouldn’t give a second thought to eating vegetables, Beth, from Cornwall, had been suffering a lifelong debilitating phobia of most foods. Even looking at vegetables made her heart race and palms sweaty.
Until the age of 23, her diet consisted of beige, bland and processed foods.
Beth had struggled with Selective Eating Disorder – an eating disorder characterised by an intense fear of new foods – her entire life.
Over the years her parents tried every trick in the book but eventually gave up and let Beth prepare her own meals. Every morning she would prepare her own and her brother’s lunch, but she was so terrified of touching the ham on her brother’s sandwiches that she would use gloves and forks.
After a visit to the GP, Beth was shocked to discover she not only had an iron deficiency but was at high risk of developing diabetes.
Her GP diagnosed Selective Eating Disorder and referred her specialist counsellors, but nothing seemed to work.
Beth began searching Selective Eating Disorder and food phobias online. She came across a hypnotherapist that specalised in food phobias. Although she had tried hypnosis before without success she decided to give it a go again.
The hypnotherapist spent the initial hour talking Beth before starting hypnotherapy treatment.
After the session, the hypnotherapist suggested she try some plain salad.
Over the next week Beth tried several new foods and although she didn’t like many, the idea of tasting them wasn’t horrific.
A year on and Beth now enjoys a much-varied diet. She even enjoys cooking and eating out with friends. Her weight is now healthy for her height and age, and she not only has more confidence, she can now run without exhaustion.
If you would like to talk to someone regarding a food phobia please get in touch on 01803 500300 or email chris@fleethypnosis.com.

Program analyst positions essentially combine the duties of a systems analyst and computer programmer. These professionals are responsible for designing and developing software and computer systems, and writing computer programs to implement those designs. They may also update and repair existing computer and software programs.
Program analysts may work with specific financial, scientific or engineering computer systems, depending on their employer's needs. Program analysts typically start their jobs by meeting with supervisors to discuss what the company needs, then designing an appropriate system. Through this process, program analysts might prepare cost analyses, design software programs, translate those programs into various programming languages, and test software for bugs and other issues.
Because program analysts must consistently check with their organization to make sure they create a product that meets the company's needs, these professionals should boast solid communication skills in addition to their design and development abilities. They may have to train other employees on the new systems and software, as well, which also requires communication skills.
Most program analysts work with computer systems design companies, though a handful also work in finance and insurance, software publishing, manufacturing or self-employment.
Most employers consider program analyst applicants with a bachelor's degree or higher, though some may permit an associate degree. Candidates who don't have their bachelor's might compensate for it in relevant work experience, but even so, most companies prefer a bachelor's degree in a computer-related subject, such as engineering or mathematics. Aspiring program analysts may hold a bachelor's degree in a non-computer related subject if they have also completed training through a professional organization, seminar or continuing education course.
The technology field is ever-changing, so those working in it must prepare for consistent adaptation to change. Program analysts can stay current on trends and innovations in their field through continuing education courses, professional development seminars, programming language classes or personal study. They might also obtain licensure or certification from a program-specific vendor, though this isn't required to work as a program analyst.
Ideally, program analysts should possess analytical skills, strong concentration, detail-oriented thinking and excellent troubleshooting skills. Most employers prefer candidates to have prior professional experience in addition to their education.
Program analysts in the United States earn a median annual salary of $65,217, according to PayScale. This breaks down to $25.95 per hour. Professionals in the lowest 10 percent of the program analysis field make approximately $46,000 per year (or $16.61 per hour), while those in the 90th percentile make as much as $98,000 annually (or $37.97 per hour).
Entry-level program analysts make a median salary of $59,000 annually, and late-career analysts make about $93,000 (and up to $124,000 each year for late-career program analysts in the 90th percentile). Program analysts may go on to become data analysts, project managers or program project managers later in their careers.
Washington, D.C. pays program analysts the highest salary in the country, with professionals in the district earning $90,321 per year. Idaho has the lowest annual wage for program analysts – $43,468 – but the state also boasts a relatively low cost of living, meaning, that a lower salary there would stretch farther than in other states.

If you've ever reveled in the smoky air of your backyard while grilling up a burger or two, you can imagine what guests of Friday night's Burger Bash were in for when they walked into Manhattan's Pier 92. Not one but dozens of chefs and restaurateurs came together at this rooftop party to serve up hundreds of juicy, cheesy, piled-high burgers to hordes of hungry fans, all eager to get their hands on the between-the-bun creations.
2016 marks the ninth year of this beloved New York City Wine & Food Festival event, and like in festivals past, the burger offerings put forth ranged from the classic (hello, American cheese) to the downright creative — think lamb-beef-combo patties and lobster toppings, which kept partygoers coming back for more. With so many burgers on display, it was up to both guests and judges — such famous, food-loving figures as Chopped judge Marc Murphy, Josh Capon, Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka — to decide which was worthy of the People's Choice and Judges' Choice awards, respectively. We caught up with judge Josh, who knows what it takes to make a winning burger — he's won a whopping six Burger Bash competitions — and he told us that the perfect burger would have "perfect meat, perfect bun, perfect toppings and perfect execution." Simply put, he said he'd be looking for "balance."
After a few hours of meaty indulgence, some dancing and mingling with returning event host Rachael Ray, it was time to meet the winners. David's Cafe scored the victory in the Judges' Choice category with what was called The Burger Queen, featuring not one but two patties, plus fixings you know and love, like American cheese and tomatoes. Representatives from the restaurant joined Rachael onstage to collect their trophy with obvious joy on their faces.
Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer, known for over-the-top milkshakes adorned with candy and frosting, took home the win in the People's Choice category. The eatery's waygu-based burger (pictured above) was topped with the often-divisive blue cheese, but fans didn't seem to mind the bold flavor.
Last year's champs in the Judges' Choice category attempted to reinvent the burger wheel this time around by skipping the usual burger presentation altogether and instead offering Bacon Cheeseburger Nachos (pictured above). Yes, nachos. Each guest received a to-go burger box chock-full of ideally layered chips, a melty cheese sauce and two kinds of meat: crispy bacon and ground beef. Hearty, flavorful and messy in the best-possible way, this one left us thinking about what else could be turned into nachos.
Iron Chef Marc Forgione was on hand, too, and he wowed guests with the In House Burger (pictured above) from his restaurant American Cut. This moist, juicy burger was layered with tender bourbon-spiked onions.
Though beef burgers may be the most traditional, and indeed the most prevalent among the Burger Bash offerings, a few chefs prepared alternative patties, like 5 Napkin Burger's Merguez Burger (pictured above), which was made with both lamb and beef.
Shake Shack may be known for its classic ShackBurger, but on Friday this hot-spot eatery showcased its BBQ ShackMeister Burger (pictured above), featuring a signature barbecue sauce and crispy fried shallots. Shake Shack was one of the few vendors offering each guest a full-size burger — and we had a hard time not eating the whole thing.
When it came to side dishes, more than a few stole the show for us. Barcade's Homemade Stuffed Tater Tots, packed with bacon and cheddar, were dangerously easy to pop into your mouth one after another. Melt Shop opted for a brighter, more vibrant side dish of Caramelized Corn Salad (pictured above). With so many rich, salty burgers up for grabs, we were thrilled by this bright taste.
It doesn't take much to sell us on french fries — we're pretty obsessed with them — but Black Iron Burger's Loaded Fries (pictured above), which accompanied the restaurant's two-meat, two-cheese burger, were something special. They were topped with bacon and cheese, but we were all about the drizzle of ranch dressing.
You know how some burgers are so downright craveable that they leave you wanting more even though you've already had your fair share (and more)? For us, The SCHNIPPER from Schnippers was that. Though it was layered with Taylor ham and featured two sauces, it was classic and wonderfully rich in all the right ways, thanks in large part to gooey American cheese.
Where there are burgers and fries, you can bet there will be milkshakes, and Quality Eats delivered with a thick and creamy Pumpkin Stout Milkshake (pictured above). A few sweet potato fries rounded out the shake, and we can only assume those were meant for dipping, which is just how we ate them.

December 2, 2017, was a proud day for Smithfield resident Brendan Carroll who was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the Rhode Island National Guard.
From West Point he went for further officer training in Missouri before being assigned to the 27th Engineer Battalion at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He’s also attended Army Ranger School.
Carroll has been deployed to Afghanistan three times, one time serving as a company commander whose unit worked to clear roadways of explosive devices. Besides the normal campaign medals he’s earned, he’s also been awarded two Bronze Stars, the Meritorious Service Medal, and the Army Commendation Medal.
After ten years of active duty, Carroll transferred to the National Guard, where he continues his military service. However, LTC Carroll isn’t the only member of his family to serve his country. His younger brother Kevin is also an officer in the United States Army.
LTC Carroll lives in Smithfield with his wife, Liberty, and two children, a son, Tegan, 6, and a daughter, Quinn, 2.
We at the Smithfield Times thank him for his service.

In trying to deal with a dilapidated, vacant house on residential Summerfield Drive, the village is finding that, trapped between foreclosure and the federal housing agency, the best it can do is cut the front lawn.
Ted Moore, who lives on Summerfield a few doors from the vacant house and is a member of the Summerfield Seasons Four Home Owner Association, said that the house has become a target for vandals and its front lawn has begun to sprout some exotic plants.
But at the Village Board meeting this week, the best trustees could do was vote to have the grass cut at the house. One trustee recommended spending $60 to have a contractor clean up the yard.
Village trustees expressed interest in securing the lot, boarding up the windows or, at the least, moving the foreclosure process along. But they are limited by state law and the involvement of the U.S. Housing and Urban Development Department, mortgagor of the propoerty.
Village Attorney Jim Knippen said it would violate state law to board up a vacant house.
"The purpose of that legislation when it was originally adopted was to stop the bombed-out appearance of a lot. . . . When you have a long line of plywood down a street, it looks like a neighborhood is economically unhealthy," he said.

Super-soft, easy-care fabric makes this versatile tank a go-to favorite. It can be mixed and matched with layering pieces for multiple wardrobe options.
"I bought a size medium (I am 5' 8" 138 lbs, generally a size 10, and wear a 34 C bra). The shirt was excessively wide. Too big by inches. On the bright side, the color was nice. The fabric was lightweight, had a lot of stretch. I returned this item immediately. Consider sizing down if you buy this item."
"Bought this in Berry and love the color, very rich. Had to take it in under the arms but now it fits perfectly. Great to pair with black and white. Very comfortable, won’t wrinkle and will be perfect for travel."
"I was unexpectedly pleased with this tank! Super soft and comfortable, hangs smoothly, and doesn’t cling, even in humid heat. I hope this will restock soon, with more colors."

Photographer Tony Stamolis grew up like a lot of suburban kids, surrounded by strip malls and spending endless hours thinking up something to do. Years later, Stamolis returned to his hometown of Fresno, California and began work on his photo book Frezno. After the jump read FADER style assistant and Fresno native Erin Hansen's Q+A with Stamolis.
Why'd you do a book on Fresno?
Everyone in their hometown, when they’re younger, all they want to do is get out. I hated Fresno for many years. At one point I went back in 1999 and it just clicked. I really began to appreciate it and then almost obsessed over it. I kind of freaked out on its strangeness. I will be walking down the street in New York and stop dead in my tracks and say, That’s Fresno light. There are so many weird sensory memories I have about Fresno.
I feel like this happens to a lot of kids who leave their hometowns and have that wanderlust to go out into the world. Once they return with a new perspective on the largeness of the world, they seek out the small personalities in their hometown that make them who they are.
At some point you realize you can’t ever not be from your family, you can’t not come from where you come from. Everyone that’s seen the book tells me, That looks like my hometown. The images from the book are just sort of what goes on across suburban America, just a bunch of bored kids and people doing what they do. But Fresno is very third world in many ways, everything builds north and then drains the south, it becomes Mexico basically.
You're right. There is a huge division between class south of Shaw Avenue and north of Shaw Avenue. It’s a very clear line. But once you go south towards downtown and beyond, you really start to see the vast agricultural community and the multiculturalism that the Central Valley has cultivated. It’s also depressing though because of that division.
There was a pre-Hurricane Katrina study on poverty in America and Fresno was number one, which has a lot to do with immigrant workers.
I would say a significant portion of the city is illegal, which doesn’t help when it comes to getting stuff done on a political level because the people who need most help are people who have no say in property laws, education, and civil liberty suits. Plus, Bubba is the mayor.
That weirdness is all part of it. This whole project came out of me going back to take care of my sick mother, and it was very stressful and depressing. Taking pictures of Fresno was an outlet for me. It was my down time. I found something good in its oddities and it’s weird depressed thing. I know the people that will be offended by this book are the people that don’t understand that, but it’s like, Open your eyes! There are Meth heads in the best neighborhoods.
Oh yeah, they’re safe Meth heads then. Lets take off the rose-colored glasses already.
When I went back to Fresno, I found people went away, went to school, specialized in something and then returned because they figured out Fresno a perfect fit for them. And they were doing things! Like revitalizing downtown with loft housing and creating new venues and an Art Walk. I don’t remember seeing older kids come back when I was seventeen to do stuff like that.
This is something that is completely new.
Through this project, I met like a hundred and fifty kids and they are doing cool stuff and it’s kind of remarkable. When I was there last I found so much music happening, and it’s underground still. You go to a Chinese food restaurant downtown and find a punk rock show. It blew me away.
Are you going back to Fresno for the book launch?
I called a guy at Sugar Hill Shop in Fresno and set something up. They’re going to host it in their store and in the parking lot on December 13th. I told my friends in LA and San Francisc—ex- Frestuckians—and they said, Sitting in a parking lot on a curb drinking beer in Fresno with old friends? I can’t think of anything better.

The official end of the NCAA Football season meant the traditional Army-Navy game and the announcement of the Heisman Trophy winner which followed a common pattern.
Week 2 in the NCAA wasn’t necessarily the most exciting but there were a few teams that made sure they put on a show with two major rivalries returning to the league.
The Heisman Trophy doesn’t guarantee success but it is still the pursuit of so many athletes and that pursuit begins again with a new season.

2016: Funniest political year ever?
Trump’s cabinet picks and entertaining paroxysms of left-wing losers vindicated once-hesitant Trump voters.
Many Americans who voted for Donald Trump harbored reservations, but, post-election, Trump’s cabinet picks and, especially, the overwrought, but entertaining paroxysms of left-wing losers vindicated the judgment of once-hesitant Trump voters.
Hillary Clinton squandered a record $1.2 billion on a campaign juggernaut that ripped through $131.8 million in the final weeks alone. Clinton, whose party has publicly pledged to remove money from politics, spent twice as much as Trump – and lost. That’s three good laughs. Here’s another: On Election Day, the Clintonistas were so confident of winning that they popped champagne on her campaign plane en route to Hillary’s victory party.
The Hill reported: “Democratic donors stung by Hillary Clinton’s upset loss…feel like they just set their money on fire.” Clearly, Hillary’s donors weren’t amused.
California provided Hillary’s entire meaningless popular vote margin. Without California and New York City, Trump would have enjoyed a “yuuuge” popular vote win. Trump’s election energized “Calexit,” a California secession movement. In December, Calexit opened its first “embassy” -- in Moscow. Odd. Didn’t Democrats blame Russia for Hillary’s failure?
After President-elect Trump tweeted that flag-burners should face legal consequences, hard-left activists took the bait and burned American flags outside a Manhattan Trump property. Those people aren’t merely stupid, they are profoundly, comically dumber’n a sack of hammer handles.
Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein milked $3.5 million from desperate Democrats to pay for a Wisconsin recount which increased Donald Trump’s winning margin by 131 votes – or $26,717.56 each.
Michigan’s partial recount did reveal voting irregularities, but only in Detroit where Hillary won 95 percent of votes reported. Fewer than one-third of Detroit's voting precincts matched ballot totals with registration records. 248 precincts counted more votes than the number of voters who appeared. Even fraud couldn’t drag Hillary over Michigan’s finish line.
Absurdly, humorless Democrats insisted that the disclosure of hacked -- but authentic – Democratic campaign operatives’ emails threatened democracy, but the media/Clinton campaign collusion, primary deck-stacking, and party-organized violence the emails exposed and physical threats to Trump electors did not.
In a final ignominy, more electors abandoned Hillary (5) than Trump (2).
The left’s Trump freak-out descended into self-satire. One observer described it as mass hysteria, a psychological state in which “[w]hipping oneself into an embarrassing emotional lather is now considered righteous instead of ridiculous.” Amusingly, campus bed-wetters underwent toddler therapy to cope with their self-pity, including coloring books, soap bubbles, Play-Doh and therapeutic puppy/kitten cuddling. When did children get to vote?
2016 marks the end of eight years during which a self-reverential president who confidently declared his policies to be America’s future and his critics on the “wrong side of history” presided over historic national and state political humiliations that will define his inglorious legacy. History has a finely-tuned sense of humor.
But, brace yourself. If you think graceless, vicious left-wing Democrats and their operatives in show business and among the national media are consumed by Trump Derangement Syndrome now, wait until Jan. 20. It’s going to be hilarious.

Do you plan on having houseguests over soon? This time of year, we typically host a lot of family events and parties with overnight guests. If your house is the same, take note. I have four tips that will help you prepare for and impress your houseguests.
1. Spread out snacks. Food is always a good thing. Keep easy to prepare snacks and drinks available at all times. Make sure you have age appropriate food as well (for children and elderly). A snack drawer, drink station, and deli drawer in the fridge are great options for guests. It’s also a great touch to put snacks in different parts of the house too. A personal favorite this time of year is spiced nuts in a bowl on the coffee table in the living room.
2. Offer fun entertainment options. It’s great if you can have a wide array of options available to your guests, whether it’s a game of Monopoly, a dip in the pool, or an On Demand movie rental, offer your guests something to do with their free time (when you’re at home).
Better yet—have age-appropriate tasks for guests to help you with. Guests love to contribute and feel like they’re part of your home. (I typically ask younger kids to help with making appetizers or prep for lunch).
3. Add delightful touches that will make a big difference. It’s a no-brainer to make sure to clean your home before guests arrive. Take an hour to fluff the pillows, dust the furniture, wash the dishes, empty the trash, vacuum and mop the floors. But try also getting some more luxurious products for guest bathrooms and bedrooms in addition to freshly laundered sheets and towels. Adding a seasonal candle, hand soap, lotion, and shampoo to a guest bathroom goes a long way.
I use Grove Collaborative for all of my natural household and personal care products. They make it really easy because everything on their site is eco-friendly and good for my home and the planet—the best part is that they deliver them right to my door.
I order so many great products from Grove every month. My favorites are the Grove bar soap (a real treat for guests!), Seedling tree-free paper towels, and the wide range of Mrs. Meyer’s products. I also love the wide variety of products from the all natural companies like Dr. Bronners.
4. Create a cozy atmosphere. Display fresh flowers, light a candle, lay a cozy blanket on the sofa, and make sure the thermostat is set to a comfortable temperature. You can also offer the adults their own robe and slippers. Go above and beyond for them! You want your guests to feel at home. An inviting atmosphere is key. Welcome your guests with open arms and an inviting home. They are worth it!
If you need some cleaning supplies to prepare for houseguests, Grove Collaborative is offering the free set of Mrs Meyers dish soap, hand soap, walnut scrubbers, a stylish caddy, and free shipping, just for giving their company a try. (For new members who spend $20). Bonus: If you spend over $39 on your first order, you’ll get their amazing Grove Cleaning Caddy included free. Get it all HERE!

There exists a complex history between the alcohol and recreational cannabis industries.
Both topics beget sensitive assumptions and combining priorities can prove challenging to navigate. In June 2018, the Wine & Spirit Wholesaler Association (WSWA) became the first beverage association to openly and actively support legal cannabis. An industry trade group spearheaded the conversation through strategic PR efforts—better positioning themselves to influence favorable policy decisions in the future.
To promote WSWA’s position, Adfero merged the complementary industry narratives. Rather than focus on restrictive-use regulations, Adfero framed the conversation around consumer safety and protections. Leaning on the historical model of alcohol prohibition in the United States, this narrative discouraged an outright ban on cannabis use. It instead discussed the safety and sanitation of such substances, all while respecting states’ rights to dictate certain restrictions.
Adfero forged media connections based on the merit of WSWA’s cohesive approach. By targeting specific alcohol, cannabis and regulatory trade groups, as well as niche press outlets, Adfero secured earned media placements. Adfero strategically leveraged WSWA’s interim CEO’s strong interviews as proof points of the organization’s willingness to pioneer this paradigm shift.
One month later, WSWA’s message had earned 51 original media placements, with an additional 12 syndications, for a total of 63 articles. Two fully-owned and -earned op-eds in The Daily Caller and Morning Consult further cemented WSWA’s position at the forefront of the conversation.

The monument to Louis Daguerre currently resides outside of the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, DC. The monument was created to honor Louis Daguerre, who made great strides in the photographic industry by creating the daguerreotype in 1839. He developed a process to create crisp, detailed images using chemicals and sensitized plates. The National Portrait Gallery has obtained a large collection of daguerreotype portraits, the earliest an image of John Quincy Adams from 1843.
In 1889, the Photographers Association of America commissioned for this monument to be created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Daguerre’s invention. Jonathan Scott Hartley was the artist commissioned to design the bronze and granite sculpture. Using a daguerreotype of Daguerre himself for reference, the artist incorporated his likeness into the sculpture. A woman places a garland wreath around Daguerre and a large globe. The design honors Daguerre and the global impact that his invention had on the world.
After years of weathering, the bronze sculpture’s surface had turned to a light green patina and needed to be restored. B.R. Howard has worked with many museums to conserve art and was honored to have the opportunity to complete the treatment. With years of experience in sculpture restoration, including bronze sculpture restoration and granite sculpture restoration, BRH was able to create a successful sculpture restoration plan based on the specifics of this project. The sculpture treatment plan included the reduction of corrosion, cleaning the granite, and hot wax treatment which returned the sculpture to its original dark brown finish.

We have been up to a lot since our last post. Connor and Wyatt have a new cousin (Simon Peter Wei-Ming Kwok), a few new second cousins (Zoe Tompsett, Charles Ernest Allard, Kristen Woodward) and a ton of new friends. We have travelled to Georgian Bay a couple of times, endured an entire ultimate season of Geofford playing and captaining (including travelling to a couple of tournaments - Toronto, Waterloo with the kids, and Julie organized an ultimate tournament in Ottawa - Mixed Up).
Wyatt is now in daycare as Julie is back to work. So far he seems to be enjoying his time (as far as we can tell). He is a very happy baby, only fussy when he is tired, hungry or soiled. He is almost sitting up and is frustrated that he isn't moving when he is on his tummy. He also loves jumping in the jolly jumper. When he is in the mood, Wyatt will also turn over, but most of the time he is happy kicking at the toys on his playmat. He also loves putting everything in his mouth. We will have to be careful to watch if Connor shares any small toys with his younger brother. At Wyatt's 6-month appointment (on Aug 17th), he weighed 8.22kg (18lbs 2oz) and measured 70.5cm (27.8") tall.
Connor seems to be enjoying having his younger brother at daycare with him. Our daycare provider Lynne reports that Connor is a "great little helper". Connor is quite the little man now, he is quite verbose, but gets frustrated when we don't understand what he is saying. Most of the time we don't understand because he is not using words but little grunts to try and get us to do something for us. As the NFL season is now upon us, Geofford has taught Connor a few calls including touchdown, safety (Connor can even be prompted to describe the safety - that it is two points and the ball), and offside. Connor also is learning to jump. It has been fun watching the progression of just bending his knees for a jump to actual jumping. At Connor's 2-year appointment (on Sept 8th), he weighed 11.11kg (24lbs 8oz) and measured 89cm (35") tall. I think that the scales at the doctor's office (now that they have moved offices) are a little off because I weighed him at the doctor's office in July when he was sick and he weighed that much.
Julie is now back to work at the Canadian Coast Guard, which has presented some new challenges including everyone in the family being awake at 6:30am. Connor has had the toughest time adjusting because that little man loves his sleep, but he also loves to play.
Geofford also has a few new challeges this fall, he has additional responsibility at work and he will be playing ultimate with the Master's team GLUM (that may give you a hint regarding his age, there is a minimum age to play Master's).
As always, we have been trying to visually document our time with our flickr photostream. Hopefully we will keep up with the blogging as much as we are posting photos.

PAUL ROBINSON has warned the Championship’s top six that Blackburn are coming for them.
A run of one defeat in the last eight has seen Rovers jump up to ninth spot and they are now only four points behind sixth-placed Reading.
The ex-England goalkeeper said: “We’re just outside the play-offs and there is no reason why we can’t have a late push.
“We’ve got a good squad here with a good bunch of players and the manager has been given a little bit of time now to create his own squad and his own players.
“I think the 1-0 win at Reading last weekend just showed the resilience and strength of character that we’ve got here.

"The Office of Preaching, and of Preachers and Hearers," Martin Luther, c. 1522.
"Seeing that by Christ alone we have access to the Father, there are no true shepherds other than those who come to Christ themselves and bring others there also, neither is any to be thought to be in the true sheepfold but those who are gathered to Christ."
"The great Shepherd of the sheep knows all that are his, guards them by his providence, guides them by his Spirit and word, and goes before them, as the Eastern shepherds went before their sheep, to set them in the way of his steps."
"And as it is not unworthy of Christ to be styled the door, by which both the sheep and the true pastor enter, so neither is it unworthy of God the Father to be styled the door keeper."
"Christ is at once the door, the shepherd and the pasture. His pasture is the bread of life and the water of life."
