 many Posters as possible to spread around SA during the two weeks prior to the election. Posters cost around $15 each. We would like to print over 100 if possible. (e.g. Raise $1500 or more) First a big thank you to everyone who has given funds to get our 12 candidates nominated. It cost us $24,000. Secondly a huge thank you to the other parties who have preferenced NCTCS high in SA - We are humbled by your confidence in us. There are 12 parties who have preferenced Leon either first or virtual first in SA. The media has missed this point so far, so do not be surprised if you have not read about it - YET There are three "humps" for Leon to get over to get elected. The first hump is to poll highly enough to start accumulating the votes of the other micro parties. We believe he needs 5,000 votes to do this. Last election he received 4,600 votes. Publicity is the crucial thing here - Posters - interviews and people passing on information with emails “Leon Ashby is the best chance to remove the Greens from the SA Senate” is the message to get out. The second hump is the toughest - when preference distribution reaches around the 4% mark. There's a significant number of small groups going to the Sex party and we believe their total will be around 4%. Family First gets a very strong primary and has two early preferences so they will have around 4%. The Greens might have about 8% and the Liberals will have over half a third quota. If the accumulated "Leon" vote is above the accumulated "Sex" vote OR the accumulated "Family First" vote he gets the majority of both of them (some of the Sex party feeders split off to the Greens, but Sex party themselves come to Leon along with the LDP and smokers rights party. The third hump is not much of a hump, when it is down to three - the Greens, the Liberals, and Leon. The Greens are preferencing Leon above the Liberals and the Liberals are preferencing Leon above the Greens. This means that as long as he is above one of them, he gets elected. We think the odds of this are really good, as it's a little bit of a zero sum game between the Liberals and the Greens - The higher the Liberal vote is, the lower the ALP surplus going to the Greens and vice versa. And remember that mathematically the number of votes left in this last distribution must be 2 quotas minus one vote - so 28.6%. Provided Leon has 9% of the vote or more, then one of the other two must be below him. So if you can spare $20 or $100 to help maximise the primary vote for Leon, please donate by cheque to 9 Britton Place, McKellar ACT 2617 or direct deposit into Westpac Climate Sceptics Account BSB 035612 acc no 239469 Donations to NCTCS - an AEC Registered Political Party - are Tax Deductible. Please call or text 0435423636 or email us to let us know how much you have donated so we know how many posters we can order by noon Thursday. Many Thanks, The NO CARBON TAX Climate Sceptics Team.

Come across a few of these but none of them have escalated into something more serious, yet!!New York City in the late 1970s and early 80s could best be described using Charles Dickens’ phrase, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,” and Meryl Meisler’s photographs documented it with compassion and humor. As the city neared bankruptcy, crime rates rose, and epidemics of arson and crack made the Big Apple seem like it was rotting to the core. Yet in the midst of it all, a scintillating, groundbreaking disco nightlife culture arose. Crossing the most exclusive clubs’ velvet gates, Meisler danced and photographed with her medium format camera.
On July 13, 1977, while Meisler was en route to Studio 54, a blackout shuttered New York City. A few days later, the disco beat was back while headlines and radios blasted news about a neighborhood had she never heard of before: Bushwick, where looting and rioting erupted in the darkness and continued for days on end.
Four years later, in 1981, Meisler took on a teaching position in a Bushwick Public School. On its surface the neighborhood epitomized urban decay. The beauty of natural light and those who loved and thrived in the destruction were captured with a point-and-shoot camera as Meisler walked to and from the subway and the school.
Meisler’s series “A Tale of Two Cities: Disco Era Bushwick” is the most extensive known documentation of the neighborhood during a desperate decade. Meisler juxtaposes her disco photographs with candid images of Bushwick residents and the crumbling streetscape around them. “A Tale of Two Cities: Disco Era Bushwick” was published as a monograph in 2014 featuring Meisler’s never-before-seen photographs alongside texts by authors—Bushwick historians, educators, and disco divas alike—who grew up amongst the rubble.controller test bed.

Life sciences are blazing new frontiers, and pushing them forward are innovators who think outside the box -- toolbox that is.
While often overlooked, tool makers represent a vital component of the state's life sciences cluster, and their long history here gives Massachusetts a competitive advantage that few other states can match. Their ever-improving gizmos, from powerful microscopes to precise sensors, enable scientists to see what was once unseen; measure what was once immeasurable; and test what couldn't be tested.
As a result, drug companies, biotechnology companies, and university laboratories are making advances in basic research, drug discovery, and the treatment of disease. At MIT, for example, the development of a tool to analyze the body's complex sugars is leading to a safer and more effective form of heparin, a blood-thinning agent used to prevent strokes.
