259. Achmat commented to this Panel, that there was value in having the Human Resources Subcommittee situate in the Western Cape – the Board was widely scattered and not always immediately available to deal with matters of urgency . As far as he was concerned this already established Human Resources Subcommittee was populated by persons of known integrity and he described each one in terms of their capacity for dealing with peoples and issues

Also note if you have a gas heater or cooker there is also the risk of a gas leak killing you. Gas detectors are a different device. A leak inside a gas appliance may not trigger a detector mounted outside, but may pose an explosion risk. Normally for mains gas you need to mount the gas leak detector high while for bottled gas mount the detector low.

The team wanted to understand whether brand new fabrics could capture residual nicotine—a marker for thirdhand smoke—after being placed in indoor environments where no current smoking was taking place. For the study, the team placed new, travel-size organic cotton pillows in the homes of non-smokers and also people who had smoked in the past (an average of 67 cigarettes per week), but had quit smoking before the study started.

54. At this stage of the Report, I do not propose to deal with the status or value of any of the submissions or complaints which the Panel may have received but simply to deal with the contents of the Mail & Guardian article of 18th May 2018 insofar as it refers to Achmat.

A few other things trouble me too: our present CJI, before taking office, publicly lectured about independent judges and noisy journalists. Just recently, the judicial system allowed a journalist in Odisha to remain in jail for over a month for making certain remarks about the Sun Temple in Konark. Our Supreme Court even refused to grant him bail, reportedly remarking that if one’s life were in danger, what better place was there than to stay in jail. When the court is angered about the publication of information pertaining to the working of critical public institutions like the Central Bureau of Investigation on grounds of confidentiality, one cannot help but worry.

From IncuCyte live imaging of cocultured MФs and cancer cells, 24- to 48-hour image series containing a cancer-MФ fusion event was cropped and exported as two separate uncompressed audio video interleave (AVI) files: one containing only the red channel for TrackMate analysis and another containing both red and green channels with a sizing legend. Red-channel AVI files were imported into FIJI and converted to 8-bit image series with a mean filter of 1.5 pixels applied. TrackMate analysis was then performed on nuclei with an estimated diameter of 10 pixels and a tolerance of 17.5. Using the Linear Assignment Problem Tracker, settings for tracking nuclei were as follows: 75.0-pixel frame-to-frame linking and 25.0-pixel and two-frame gap track segment gap closing. Tracks segments were not allowed to split or merge. Using the analysis function in TrackMate, track statistics were exported to an Excel file, and tracks containing 11 or fewer frames were excluded from the analysis. A total of 9 hybrid cells and 536 unfused cells were analyzed with a P < 1.1 × 10−9 by unpaired t test. Error bars represent SD.

If the weather outside is not too much below freezing, even an air-air heatpump can deliver 5 times the heat to the input electricity, and solar collector systems still work in the winter every time they get even a little bit of sun, which also slashes the electric bill.

CF: I ended up calling Professor Ensor. By this point I had testimonies, I had some records, I even had an academic thesis that someone had written in part about Doron’s behaviour in social justice spaces. And I called Professor Ensor, I tried to meet her but she wouldn’t meet me. And I called Professor Ensor to say I’m not someone who has been harassed but I am in contact with people who are and have been, and um I didn’t call secretly, I called in my own name, I said who I was um and I want to make sure they have a chance to tell their stories if they want to, and I want some (inaudible) assurances of how they would be protected. And the response I got, I remember the first thing after I said that, there was this pause and Professor Ensor said to me, um what you are saying is slander, and you could be sued for slander.
