‘Grey’s Anatomy’: Christina Yang Returned to the Showwith More Than Just a Text This TimeFans Shed Happy Tears – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

ThroughoutGreys Anatomys16 seasons, we have seen many actors come and go. Every time someone leaves, fans beg to have them back. Stars such asPatrick Dempsey(Derek Shepherd) and Kate Walsh (Addison Montgomery) are on the top of the list. However, no one is more requested than Merediths (Ellen Pompeo) person, Christina Yang (Sandra Oh).

On October 17, 2019, Yang made a cameo within a text conversation between Mer and Christinabut it wasnt exactly what fans had in mind. The producers heard fans cries for more, and this time came through with an even bigger tease during the November 14, 2019 episode.

WhenChristina Yangleft Greys Anatomy after season 10, fans were devastated. She moved to Zurich, Switzerland, to take a job alongside her old fling, Preston Burke (Isaiah Washington). Hopefuls thought we might see short scenes of Yang working in Zurich in future seasons, but the wish never materialized.

Yang made a brief appearance at Dereks funeral in season 11. There was a clip in which we see the back of Merediths head standing next to a brunette.

Cristina was there, Director Kevin McKiddtold TV Line. I presume Sandra was busy and unavailable for that episode, which was the only reason why [a body double was used]. That funeral sequence was meant to imply that Cristina was obviously there for Meredith. Her presence was felt.

Mers person also sent her a text during the episode titled, Its Raining Men. Meredith was catching a ton of heat from Bailey (Chandra Wilson) over an article that took Merediths words out of context.

Move to Switzerland before Bailey murders you in your sleep, read the text from Christina to Mer. Fans screamed over the excitement of the text, but it just wasnt enough to quench their thirst for Yangs return to Greys Anatomy.

During the episode titled, My shot, fans were given another colossal tease from Christina Yang. Meredith is on trialat a hearingawaiting the final decision regarding whether or not she will get to keep her medical license.

Things are not looking good for her professional career when her past patients begin filtering into the room. They start speaking on her behalf, thanking her for saving their lives. Then, to fans excitement, Alex Karev (Justin Chambers) begins reading a letter from one of Mers co-workers. Diehard fans of Greys Anatomy knew it was Christina who wrote the letter.

I can honestly tell you that if a surgery stood between me and death, read Karev, Dr. Greys hands are the only ones that Id want inside my body. Shes the light in a broken system that shell fix. She is the sun, and she is unstoppable. Sincerely, Dr. Cristina Yang.

The letter was not exactly what fans were hoping for in the way of a Yang return, but it did make viewers very happy.

As soon as he (Alex) started reading that letter, wrote one fan onReddit, I KNEW it was her and started happy crying!

Although Sandra Oh was not brought back for the episode, fans seem genuinely happy to have such a heartfelt letter from Christina read.

Christina is still present in Mers life, even if she isnt there physically, wrote another Reddit user. And weve seen that reflected especially well in this season. They continued, In life: You cant make an actor who left a show return, but you can do your best to make sure their character still exists within the universe.

Fans understand that Oh may not be able to make appearances on the show, as much as they ask for it. For the time being, fans are pleased with the way that the producers chose to add Christina to this critical moment in Merediths life.

Catch new episodes of Greys Anatomy on Thursday nights at 8 p.m. on ABC.

Patrick Dempsey Has Finally Found the TV Role Worthy of His Grey’s Anatomy Follow-Up – E! Online

Cindy Ord/Getty Images for SiriusXM

Patrick Dempsey is ready for his TV comeback.

Two years after the actor walked away from Grey's Anatomy, killing off his beloved character Derek Shepherd in the process, Dempsey has signed on for the lead role in the upcoming Epix adaptation of the best-selling novel, The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair. Production on the 10-part event series is underway in Montreal.

In the suspenseful drama, produced by MGM Television, Dempsey will take on the title role of Harry Quebert,a literary icon who suddenly finds himself indicted for murder after the body of a young girl is found buried on his property.

The series takes place in coastal Maine and focuses on Marcus Goldman (Ben Schnetzer), a successful young novelist who had been mentored by Harry, as visiting his mentor'shome to find a cure for his writer's block as his publisher's deadline looms. Marcus' plans are suddenly upended when Harry is sensationally implicated in the cold-case murder of Nola Kellergan, a fifteen-year-old girl who has been missing for many years.

The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair also stars Happy Endings alum Damon Wayans Jr. asSgt. Perry Gahalowood, a Maine State Police investigator who is investigating the death of Kellergan, and Virginia Madsen as Tamara Quinn,the owner of a local diner who learns of a secret about Quebert.

"Jol Dicker's exquisite thriller, The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair has captivated a worldwide audience with its complicated tale of love and lies. I am thrilled that this first class ensemble cast led by Patrick Dempsey and the incomparable director Jean-Jacques Annaud, get to bring provocative page-turner to life," said Steve Stark, MGM's President, Television Production & Development.

When Dempsey shocked fans with his sudden departure from the long-running ABC soap that revitalized his career, he noted that he'd likely never sign on for a workload that a broadcast series like Grey's requires from its actors."I would commit to a show that is 10 to 12 episodes.But 24 again, Idon't know if i would do that," he told EW at the time. "It's a very hard life. It's financially rewarding but there comes a point where how much is enough, really?"

Are you looking forward to Dempsey's return to TV? Sound off in the comments below!

The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair will likely debut on Epix in 2018.

Posterior Cerebral Artery | neuroangio.org

Embryology and Phylogeny (see dedicated Neurovascular Evolution and Vascular Neurombryology pages for details)

The PCA is an old vessel, in fact emerging in the lower species prior to development of the MCA. This makes sense because some of the areas it supplies occipital and mesial temporal lobes (besides the tectum) are phylogenetically more well established than the bulk of frontoparieral areas now served by the MCA. The PCA originally belongs to the anterior, carotid circulation, arising as the carotid terminates into the cranial and caudal rami the future ACA and PCA, respectively. Transfer of the PCA territory to the vertebrobasular circulation is a process which seems to be necessitated, from the phylognenetic standpoint, by the relatively large volume of brain supplied in the human and other higher species by the carotid system. In many mammals the vertebrobasilar system does not prominently figure in PCA supply, being confined to the brainstem and cerebellum. This is the simple phylogenetic explanation for the most common circle of Willis variant the fetal PCA named as such when early fetal arrangement of PCA origin from the ICA persists in the adult form, which is about 20-25% of the time. The variability in number is due to haggling over the semantics of what exactly constitutes a fetal PCA. Is it complete absence of the P1 segment of the PCA? Is it a state where P1 is felt to be insufficient to provide adequate PCA perfusion should the PCOM be closed? Is it simply when the PCOM is larger than the P1? Whatever the case, you have every right to confidently pick your own definition. The important point to appreciate is that there is no such thing as an absent PCOM or P1. There is certainly an angiographic or MRA or CTA absence of these vessels, which means nothing except that your equipment is not good enough to see it. They are always present in fact, as embryologically required.

Early development of the PCA is dominated by its supply of the lateral and third ventricular choroidal territory (the choroidal stage, as best described in Surgical Neuroangiography), together with the Anterior Choroidal Artery. In fact, from a phylogenetic standpoint, it is the Anterior Choroidal and not the PCA that serves as the artery to the occipital and temporal lobar areas. In the human, the Anterior Choroidal parenchymal supply is typically restricted to its segment proximal to its plexal point (again see dedicated page for details), with hemispheric territory transferred to the PCA. However, on occasion the anterior choroidal retains some of its formerly extensive cortical possessions, and as such might even be mistaken for a fetal PCA. In the vast majority of cases, however, the PCA is responsible for the supply of the mesial Occipital, inferomesial Parietal, and inferior Temporal lobes, as well as the choroid plexus of the lateral (together with the anterior choroidal) and third ventricles. Importantly, it also contributes to the supply of the cerebral peduncles and the collicular plate, its phylogenetically older territories.

Here is a beautiful image of a PCA specimen x-ray from the Yung Peng Huang collection

Also from the collection, a specimen photograph

A detail of the photograph, with additional labels (see below)

Territory, variations, images

As mentioned above, the PCA is usually responsible for the supply of the Occipital, inferomesial Parietal, and inferior Temporal lobes, as well as the choroid plexus of the lateral (together with the anterior choroidal) and third ventricles. Importantly, by way of the collicular or circumcollicular arteries it also contributes to vascularization of cerebral peduncles and the collicular plate, its phylogenetically older territories. Angiographically, the PCA is best evaluated in steep frontal projections such as the Townes, which allow the various segments of the PCA trunk to be opened up. In the lateral, there is frequent superimposition, which can be resolved by yawing the lateral tube to separate the two. Stereoscopic imaging can help decide which side is which, if knowledge is otherwise insufficient. The above image from the YPH collection, with a corresponding drawing on the left, for reference:

A lateral image of the x-ray specimen, with colored arrows this time. Inferior thalamoperforating arteries from the P1 segment (white) and PCOM (black). Geniculate = purple. Posterior lateral choroidal = red (note characteristic C-shaped curve). Posterior pericalossal (a.k.a. splenial branch) = yellow. Calcarine = pink. Parieto-occipital = green. Posterior Inferior Temporal = light blue. Middle Inferior Temporal = dark blue. Anterior Inferior Temporal = brown

Nothing like a stroke to show what the territory was: notice large portions of the inferior mesial temporal lobe, including the hippocampus, and parts of the thalamus, in this patient with a top of the basilar occlusion:

Below is a typical angiographic image of the PCA. On the right, the P1 (purple) segment is smaller than on the left (red), with streaming of unopacified blood (white) through the right PCOM visible distal to its otherwise invisible confluence with the P1 segment.

A typical fetal PCOM, ICA injection. Various branches of the PCA are marked, including PCOM (red) and posterior inferior temporal (yellow, green), middle temporal (black) and anterior temporal (white) branches arising from a common trunk, with the posterior temporal one being the largest. There is tremendous variation in how the inferior temporal branches are organized. The important part to understand is where the branch is relation to the brain.

Left vertebral injection in the same patient. Notice a steeper Townes frontal projection, as compared with the standard AP above. The right P1 is absent, but only angiographically. The left PCOM (red) is transiently retrogradely opacified by the force of the injection. The portion which curves around the brainstem is the P2. Anything distal is P3, P4, and on. Because of the fetal disposition on the right, the lateral allows for left PCA view without superimposition. The all-important calcarine branch (black) is the paramedian branch just above the tent (where the calcarine cortex is). Importantly, it will be foreshortened in the Townes view because the tent will be sloping down. The parieto-occipital branch on the other hand (pink) is less foreshortened. It is typically large and should not be mistaken for the calcarine one.

Also notice several large posterior inferior temporal branches (yellow). Because of the shape of the tent, which slopes down as it stretches laterally, the temporal branches will ovelap the cerebellum in both frontal and lateral views. It is very important to understand that. The calcarine branch will never do that in the lateral view, because the medial occipital lobe is always above the cerebellum.

Here is the same patient with the tentorium cerebelli outlined, for claritys sake

Another fetal PCOM (by my definition), on the left. A small P1 segment is present (orange). Notice how well the left tent is outlined by the hemspheric branch of the left SCA plastered up against it (no arrows this time). A sizable basilar fenestration is shown by the brown arrow. Also note that the frontal left vertebral injection projection is not a Townes, but more like a Caldwell/Submental type. Thus, all PCA branches are superimposed on each other, with no good definition, except for one the posterior lateral choroidal branch (white arrow) rises above the rest, to where the lateral ventricle would be.

MRA of bilateral fetal PCOMs, with corresponding hypoplasia of the basilar artery. Notice the unfused long P1 segments above the superior cerebellar ostia (arrow). See Basilar Artery page for details

Posterior Communicating Artery Fenestration not something you see everyday. Here is one, in association with a Trigeminal artery. So, what does that say about the embryology of the PCOM as a caudal ramus
of the ICA?

Superior Cerebellar Artery origin from the PCA

The apparent origin of the PCA from the P1 segment is, in fact, directly related to the embryology of the basilar artery, which is formed by fusion of paired longitudinal neural arteries. The extent of fusion determines the length of the basilar, and some of its variations. The position of the SCAs with respect to the P1 segment is related to the degree of upper basilar fusion, with the unfused configuration corresponding to SCA origin from the PCA. Imagine the basilar artery as a zipper:

The following variation, involving lack of basilar tip fusion, can generate a lot of confusion.Effectively, the top of the basilar is split in two, so that one or both superior cerebellar arteries originate from the P1 segment. This variant is not, therefore, a primary superior cerebellar artery aberration, but instead a deficiency in basilar fusion.

The third, basilar fenestration, is quite common, and usually of little clinical significance, except when it is so short as to minic a dissection.

Basilar nonfusion extreme fenestration, a completely unzipped look. Very rare.

Origin of superior cerebellar artery at top of the basilar on the left (yellow), and from P1 segment on the right (red arrow) seen often, can be conceptualized as a short basilar which did not undergo enough coalescence at the top to incorporate the superior cerebellar artery.

Notice P1 origin of the right superior cerebellar artery (red) with contralateral classical disposition in yellow

Below is an example of an embolus from the carotid artery into a fetal PCOM (white arrow). Notice markedly reduced CBV values on this CT perfusion map, indicative of a completed infarction with no penumbra. This, unfortunately, is too often true with occipital infarcts. The medial occipital area is not well-supported via leptomeningeal collaterals, being at the distal end of both ACA and MCA territories, and cortical visual field deficits too often show minimal to no recovery. Also appreciate the relatively straight shot from the supraclinoid ICA into the PCOM, suggesting that this was the hemodynamically preferable route for the embolus.

Calcarine Branch

Frank Netter drawing, emphasizing inferior location of the Calcarine branch in relation to the Parietooccipital branch which is situated in the sulcus of the same name.

The temporo-occipital territory sits at the further edge of two potential sources of supply anteriorly from the temporo-occipital branches of the MCA, and inferiorly from the posterior inferior temporal artery. Here is an illustration of this phenomenon, in a patient with the territory of interest demarcated by the parenchymal hemorrhage component. Both ICA and vertebral injections are required to fully delineate the AVM, supplied by the parieto-occipital branch of the MCA (yellow) and posterior inferior temporal branches of the PCA (red). Notice how far back the branch extends on the lateral view again not to be confused with the calcarine branches (green), which are superimposed on the nidus in the lateral projection. The parieto-occipital branches (white) are medial and do not contribute to the AVM. A normal posterior inferior temporal branch is marked with a purple arrow

Leptomeningeal Collaterals in anterior circulation occlusion

The PCA can be very effective in leptomeningeal collateralization of the MCA and even ACA territories. The inferior temporal branches (green) will attempt to reconstitute the upper, perisylvian portions of the temporal lobe, while the parieto-occipital branch fills in variable territories of the superior parietal lobule, precuneus, and possibly the posterior frontal convexity, depending on whether or not the hemodynamic constraint affects the MCA, ACA, or both. In this way, the inferior temporal branches can help salvage the Wernicke area. In most cases of acute occlusion, however, PCA cortical branches are too far posterior and inferior to effectively resupply the frontal lobe, which depends on the ACA in cases of insufficient MCA perfusion.

In this ICA embolus case, the posterior inferior temporal branch (red) and middle inferior temporal branch (purple) leptomeningeal vessels help reconstitute a sizable portion of the temporal lobe (light blue oval, parenchymal phase), retrogradely opacifying several inferior division temporal (green) and inferior parietal (yellow) branches of the MCA. The parieto-occipital artery attemps to revascularise the cuneus, reconsituting a superior mesial parietal branch (white) of the ACA (purple arrow). The extent of collateral support in the temporal lobe territory is fairly robust. The posterior pericalossal artery (black arrow) is normally a very poor collateral to the distal pericalossal (light blue) territory of the ACA. In this case, a small leptomeningeal network (pink) is trying its best. Notice normal-appearing posterior (gray), middle (brown) and anterior (orange) inferior temporal branches on the right.

Here is another example of rather effective leptomeningeal collateral response through the parieto-occipital territory supporting the superior parietal lobule (red) and great inferior temporal support of the MCA inferior division (green). Nearly the entire temporal lobe is adequately perfused.

Posterior Pericalossal-Pericalossal Anastomosis

As mentioned above, in the acute setting the connection between the posterior pericalossal branch of the PCA and the distal pericalossal branch of the ACA is rather inadequate for meaningful reperfusion of either vessel by the other. However, any slowly progressive constraint is another matter. The typical scenario is Moya-Moya, where very proximal bilateral MCA and ACA constraint calls the PCA into action. However, it need not be Moya-Moya any slowly evolving process will do.

In the following patient, a giant shenoid wing meningioma resulted in occlusion of both supraclinoid ICAs, similar to a Moya-Moya pattern. Therefore, the primary method of reconstitution is via leptomeningeal PCA-MCA (purple arrows) and PCA-ACA (light blue arrows) collaterals, the posterior to anterior pericalossal (yellow) anastomosis, and left more than right middle meningeal artery auto-synangioses with the MCA territory on the left (motor strip, purple oval) and right MMA to left ACA territory as well (white arrows). Notice meningioma tumor blush (orange oval)

Below are the cross-sectional images from the same patient:

Anterior Choroidal Artery Capture of Posterior Inferior Temporal Territory

As mentioned above in the embryology section, the anterior choroidal artery occasionally retains part of its embryonic inferior temporal cortical territory which normally belongs to the PCA. In this example, the large anterior choroidal is yellow, and PCOM/PCA red:

Red=PCOM/PCA; Yellow=Anterior Choroidal Artery

Supply of the Cerebral Peduncle and Quadrigeminal Plate Collicular (Quadrigeminal) Artery and Variants

The P2 segment of the PCA swings around the cerebral peduncle, underneath the thalamus, towards the quadrigeminal plate, an further dorsal towards the occipital area. Branches of the PCA supply the thalamus (inferior medial and lateral thalamus geniculate area), the peduncle, and the collicular plate. There is wide variation in the description of this supply. Sometimes it is depicted as perforators arising directly from the P2 segment, which makes sense geographically. For example, see diagram from none less than Netter below:

Others describe a stand-alone branch arising from P1 or proximal P2 segment, the Collicular (or Circumcollicular) artery and courses just medial to the main P2 segment, around the cerebral peduncle, towards the collicular plate (hence the name). The artery (red) is beautifully depicted in this specimen x-ray from the Yun Peng Huang collection. Perforators to the peduncle (pink) are also visualized:

Photo specimen, as above:

The picture is one of large P2 and slender
collicular vessel just medial to it, often too small and too superimposed on the PCA to be individually resolved on any modality. Its importance comes from the territory it supplies the cerebral peduncle and quadrigeminal plate. Thus, damage to the artery can lead to one instance of PCA-related hemiparesis, as seen in the image below with a developing infarct in the cerebral peduncle:

At least on some occasions the Collicular artery can be resolved, both with MRA and angiography. Here is an example of one (red arrows), located just medial to the P2 segment.

Here is an MRA of a different patient, with the same artery seen bilaterally. Could this be the posteromedial choroidal artery instead? Certainly. Thats what Netter would say.

Here is an example of a focal hemorrhage in the quadrigeminal plate:

Angiography, performed because we didnt want to settle for a cavernoma, shows a shunt in the the region of the quadrigeminal plate, with premature opacification of the Precentral Vein (purple)

Delayed angiography in frontal and lateral planes better displays the shunt following resolution of the hematoma, now faintly shows some superior vermian veins (light blue), and the Collicular Artery (red). Also note medial thalamic perforators originating as a single trunk, known as the artery of Percheron (orange)

Superselective angiography with the microcatheter at the ostium of the Collicular artery (red) demonstrates perfectly its course outlining the cerebral peduncle, with a small AVM (white) at the collicular plate, draining via the Precentral Vein (purple) into the straight sinus (dark blue), and retrogradely congesting paired superior cerebellar veins (light blue). Notice several slender perforators to the peduncle (pink). The silly Percheron is orange. The top pair of frontal images is stereoscopic

3D-DSA angiographic views demonstrating the relationship of the Collicular artery (red) to the much larger P2 segment of the PCA. Even in its AVM-related enlarged state, the Collicular artery remains slender and difficult to differentiate from the P2 segment on nonselective vertebral angiography. No wonder it is so often missing from descriptions. I hope that this case, and the image of the stroke, are convincing enough.

I think that it is best to think of the Collicular artery as a perforator. For example, one sometimes finds a common trunk for a number of lenticulostriate perforators from the MCA, though more often they originate separately. It may be that the Collicular artery is an example of one such common trunk, while at other times perforators to the peduncle could arise from the P2 segment (geniculate branches shown in Netter for example are direct P2 perforators). Along the same lines, medial thalamic perforators sometimes originate as a single trunk, with a totally out-of-proportion fame as the artery of Percheron, or come off separately with the exact same effect and zero fanfare (white arrows)

Below is another example of the Percheron (white), a detail from one of the images shown above. The hypoplastic left P1 is orange.

Posterior Lateral and Medial Choroidal Arteries

These important arteries supply the choroid plexus of the third and lateral (together with the anterior choroidal) ventricles. A few simple and helpful observations:

the atrium of the lateral ventricle is located above the third ventricle. Therefore, the lateral choroidal artery (red) will be situated above the medial choroidal (purple) on lateral views. Notice, in this case, the relatively intense and persistent staining of the lateral ventricular choroid plexus (yellow), well into the late venous phase. In isolation, it is of no clinical significance.

the atrium of the lateral ventricle is located on roughly the same level as the occipital lobe, and much more anterior. Therefore, a submental or Caldwell view will elevate the lateral choroidal artery (white, image below) above the hemispheric branches of the PCA for a less obstructed view one of the key uses of a Caldwell in the posterior fossa

Stereo Lateral below, again showing the lateral choroidal above the medial one; Red=posterior lateral choroidal; Orange=posterior Medial choroidal (bilateral are seen on the left image) The lateral choroidal has an inverted C-shape. The medial choroidal usually has a more S-shaped feature

Posterior choroidal arteries (lateral = red, medial = yellow) with anastomosis near foramen of Monro (purple), and associated thalamoperforating branches (light blue). The orange arrow points to the posterior pericalossal (a.k.a. splenial) branch which was already shown above as a potential and often inadequate anastomosis with the pericalossal system of the ASA (white arrows)

Dominant posterior medial choroidalartery.

All pericalossal arteries are in hemodynamic balance. The balance between posterior medial and lateral choroidal arteries canbe shiftedin either direction. The dominant vessel traverses the foramen of Monroto supply the choroid plexus of the correspondingly hypoplastic feeder. In this example, the medial choroidal (red) is dominant and extends superolaterallyacross the foramen ofMonro point (yellow) to supply the lateral ventricular territory (orange). A hypoplasticlateral choroidal artery(black) is present. The splenial arteries are labeled in purple.

Below is an example of a dominant anterior choroidal artery (red), with its plexal point (purple) and dominant choroidal (intraventricular) segment (yellow) curving superoanteriorly to outline the atrium and lateral ventricular roof, territory normally supplied by the posterolateral choroidal, which is hypoplastic in this case. Notice how the shape of the anterior choroidal here resembles that of the posterolateral choroidal on lateral views

State Anatomy Board honors those whose bodies were donated to medical research and education – Carroll County Times

The Anatomy Board of Maryland held a ceremony to honor those who have donated their bodies to support medical knowledge Monday afternoon at Springfield Hospital Center.

Friends and family members of the deceased were invited for a memorial ceremony at the hospital center in Sykesville, which features a dedicated gravesite to those who had their bodies donated to the anatomy board.

Ronn Wade, director of the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene State Anatomy Board, said they've held the event for more than 40 years, as both a way to commemorate the sacrifice of those who gave their bodies after death as well as a way to give a chance for a final farewell from their friends and families.

According to Wade, bodies belonging to the Anatomy Board are used in training medical students at schools, trauma training, surgeon training and military medical programs throughout the state.

While many of the bodies come from donors who willingly submit their bodies to the process prior to their deaths, others belong to people who have not been claimed by family members following their deaths.

"If someone dies and no one claims the body, the state basically has a duty and responsibility to provide for a decent and dignified disposition," Wade said. "It has the right, since it's using public funds, to provide for the use of the body to advance the public health interest."

Wade said when he began working for the board 40 years ago, they had between 300 and 400 donors, but now they have more than 75,000.

Adam Puche, Anatomy Board vice chairman, opened the ceremony by talking about how important these donated bodies are to the educational process of medical students as well as their impact on society as a whole.

"Medical donors touch the lives and hearts of their friends and families, but they also touch the lives of medical professionals," Puche said. "And through that contact they have with us, they touch the lives of thousands and thousands of people."

To honor the faiths of the deceased, the Rev. Patrick M. Carrion, director of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, Imam Faizul Khan of the Islamic Society of Washington Area, the Rev. Edward Richardson of Springfield State Hospital and Rabbi Ruth Smith, chaplain of the University of Maryland Medical Center each stepped forward to say a prayer for the lost loved ones.

David McCloud attended after the death of his father. He said he was impressed with the service and the emphasis on different faiths stuck out to him.

"It was very comforting. When my father passed, I had to let the state handle the arrangements, and I'm actually very satisfied with what I've seen," McCloud said. "It kind of eased my guilt because I wasn't able to do it myself."

For Joyce Kindle, the ceremony was a way for her to say goodbye to her daughter's father. Kindle said she wasn't aware that his body had been donated to the Anatomy Board until she began to search for where bodies go when not claimed.

"It was nice. We needed closure," Kindle said. "If something like this happens to other people they need closure, and we didn't get that. I was even thinking during the ceremony that I might want to do this."

Outside, Heather Sinclair was joined by about a half-dozen others carrying signs protesting the ceremony.

Sinclair said though she is a supporter of the donation process, she believes the current system does not give enough time or effort to find or contact family members who may have other plans for the deceased. Sinclair said that she supports Nancy's Law, a bill that would allow a friend or relative of a decedent to arrange the final disposition of their unclaimed body beyond the 72-hour limit that is currently in place, at which point the State Anatomy Board takes control of the body. The bill was proposed and quickly died during the 2016 General Assembly.

"We totally support body donation," Sinclair said. "But they call these unclaimed and they're not contacting the families. We just want them to make reasonable and good faith efforts to contact the family and check with the missing person's registry."

Anatomy of a combat sports tragedy: Who killed Tim Hague? – MMAjunkie.com

The first time Tim Hague went down against Adam Braidwood was a little over a minute into the first round. Backed into the corner, he took a pair of right hands and ended up kneeling on the canvas, rising to his feet as the referees count hit seven.

Roughly a minute after that Hague went down again. Then shortly after he took a few more hard shots and went lunging toward Braidwoods legs not a knockdown, according to referee Leon Koivisto, but still it prompted a brief pause in the action. As soon as it started again, Braidwood put Hague down for a third time with the first punch he threw a jab.

That probably should have been the end of the fight. If it had been, Hague would probably be alive today.

Hague had looked out of his depth from the beginning. A veteran of more than 30 professional MMA bouts, he came into this fight just 1-2 as a boxer. With his labored, lunging punches, he never seemed to threaten the 7-1 Braidwood, who battered Hague with heavy right hands throughout the first round, before knocking him out cold with an uppercut early in the second.

Hague was clearly in bad shape as he lay on the canvas. He never recovered. As Braidwood told an interviewerfor Canada-based CTV News days later, I knew, man. I knew in the ring.

Two days later, Hague was taken off life support, dead at 34.

This isnt supposed to happen, even in combat sports, but we know that it can. When human beings trade head trauma for sport, the risk of a worst-case scenario becoming reality is never that far away.

According to Braidwood, Hagues death was nobodys fault. Thats true in the sense that death is a possibility that cant be completely removed from sports like boxing and MMA.

But in this case we also see several small mistakes that piled up on top of each other. Its hard to blame Hagues death entirely on any one of them certainly weve seen fighters live through worse, and even thrive afterward but together they created the atmosphere that made a possible tragedy much more likely.

For starters, theres the question of how they got in the ring together in the first place. Braidwood was 7-1 with six knockouts when he met Hague, who was 1-2 as a boxer, but 21-13 as an MMA fighter.

The damage had started to pile up late in Hagues MMA career. He lost three of his last four MMA bouts, all by knockout. Between boxing and MMA, he was knocked out three times in 2016. And his one win as a professional boxer? It was in 2011, the same year he had his final fight with the UFC.

A fight with Braidwood wasnt exactly unsanctionable, even if the matchup seems different now that we know the outcome. He was riding a six-fight winning streak compared with Hagues two-fight losing skid as a boxer, but then there was also Hagues MMA experience to consider.

Just as the Nevada State Athletic Commission can justify allowing Conor McGregor to box Floyd Mayweather based on his experience in a similar combat sport, the Edmonton Combative Sports Commission could do the same here. But a fight like that should still warrant in close look in action, just in case a marked skill discrepancy shows up right away.

Which, of course, it did. Braidwood was clearly the better boxer, a fact thoroughly established by the time he drops Hague with a jab for the third knockdown of the first round. Thats where Koivisto, the referee, could have intervened. When Hague went back to his corner after the bell, his corner had a similar chance to step in.

Nobody did. They let him go back out for the second round despite seeing little in the first to suggest that the fight would be the least bit competitive. Hagues balance, along with his ability to defend himself, were visibly compromised. He seemed doomed to defeat. So why let him get off the stool and walk back out there?

Theres more than one answer to that question, and I suspect most of them are familiar to longtime followers of the fight game. They let him go back out there because it was his choice, because he wanted to. Because he trained so hard and this was his chance. Because it wasnt over yet, and more shocking turnarounds have happened before. Because anything can happen in a fight, right?

They also let it continue because a certain amount of trauma and damage is to be expected. This is fighting, after all. We take some degree of imminent physical danger for granted. A willingness to take a beating every now and then is the price of entry. Its quitting thats a mortal sin.

Those underlying assumptions dont mix well even a few small mistakes. A ref who regards three knockdowns in the opening round as no great cause for concern. A commission willing to greenlight a risky pairing. A corner that wont tell their fighter when hes had enough.

Theyre all pieces of the puzzle here. Its just that we seem to have a hard time seeing how they fit together until its too late.

Anatomy of a Goal: Higuain’s Equalizer – Massive Report

Welcome to the Anatomy of a Goal, where each week we dissect one goal (or near goal) from Columbus Crew SCs previous match.

For match 17 of the 2017 MLS Season, we take a look at Federico Higuains 26th minute equalizer as part of the 3-1 loss to Atlanta United on Saturday.

Heres a look at the finish from Columbus No.1 10.

Crew SC gave up the first goal in this match on a turnover created by the Atlanta high press. While its tempting to review that goal, we have covered the Black & Golds struggles with pressure in their defensive third multiple times this season.

Columbus lone goal of the game is another example of just how good the Gregg Berhalter system can be when it works like it should. This goal is the result of nine passes, eight of which were simple and one that required a bit of individual skill. Only the final pass was defended and the goal-scoring shot came from right about the United penalty marker.

Higuains equalizer begins with Jukka Raitala receiving the ball on the left. Raitala immediately has Justin Meram and Wil Trapp open, and must quickly get rid of the ball before the aggressive Atlanta press is able to take effect.

Raitala picks out Trapp, surrounded by United attackers ready to pounce. Again, Trapp must decide whether to play a quick pass back to Jonathan Mensah or to play a quick ball into the path of a wide open Artur.

Trapp gets the pass off to Artur who immediately sees Higuain standing, unmarked, near midfield. The Atlanta press, which never really got started, has already been broken by these three quick, simple passes, all of which moved forward toward the midfield rather than backward toward the Columbus goal. Back passes can be valuable, and are a linchpin of Berhalters possession based system, but on Saturday these passes led to multiple turnovers.

As Higuain prepares to receive Arturs ball, that was just a bit overhit, he notices Ethan Finlay running in an open position. Higuain makes a dummy run (a run where the player pretends to receive the ball but lets it pass by him) and allows Finlay to receive this pass.

Harrison Afful, sensing that the offensive break is on, makes the intelligent decision to begin his run downfield toward the attacking end. Afful will make the cross that sets up Ola Kamaras assist.

As Finlay feels the pressure from Atlanta left back Greg Garza, he immediately passes the ball back to Higuain who has had the opportunity to survey the field and his passing options. Afful continues his unmarked run up the right flank.

With the ball at his feet and the a full view of the attacking half, Higuain has three options as he is closed down by Jeff Larentowicz: a slotted pass to Afful, a pass into space for Finlay or a more difficult ball over the top to Kamara.

Higuain keeps with the trend and makes the easy pass to Afful who immediately has three options: a give-and-go back to Higuain, a pass to Finlay in the space between Garza and Larentowicz or dribble forward until Garza begins to defend him.

Afful decides to carry the ball up the field until Garza decides to leave Finlay and mark the Black & Golds right back. Marked by Garza, Afful can either make a difficult pass to Higuain or pass to Finlay on the wing.

Notice former Crew SC captain Michael Parkhurst standing with his left foot on the top of the penalty box. Parkhurst will keep Finlay onside during the next pass, much to the dismay of fellow center-back Leandro Gonzalez Pirez.

Afful makes the simple pass to Finlay as Gonzalez Pirez mistakenly argues for offside. Garza shifts back to the speedy Columbus winger, leaving Afful open as a safety valve.

Feeling the pressure of two Atlanta defenders, Finlay passes right back to Afful. As the fullback sees a defender approaching to his left, he must decide if he should make a quick pass, attempt to beat the defenders off the dribble or look for a safety valve at his back.

Both Kamara and Higuain, the assist man and goalscorer, are both surrounded by Atlanta defenders, but not tightly marked. Parkhurst is generally aware of Kamaras positioning as Tyrone Mears shifts toward Justin Meram.

Afful, potentially noticing that Kamara has a few yards of space behind Parkhurst, decides to send in an early cross.

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.

Affuls cross will hit the mark, but Kamaras movement and positioning are the real keys to this portion of the goal. In the above highlight you can see Kamara, who was just onside as the ball was played, contort his body around Parkhurst and knock the ball into the path of Higuain with the outside of his right foot.

Thus far, every pass in the goal sequence was simple but this goal still requires a bit of individual brilliance from Kamara.

As the ball bounces near Kamara, who is already getting in position around Parkhurst, Higuain is surprisingly unmarked inside the United penalty box.

Even as Kamara gets to the ball, Higuain is still open.

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.

Though Kamara knocks the ball back into the path of Higuain, his pass did not take Parkhurst out of the play. As the ball approaches Higuain, he is defended by Parkurst and has to quickly decide whether he will hit a one time shot or try to beat Parkhurst off the dribble.

The above highlight shows Higuain fake a first touch volley and take the ball just to the left of Parkhurst where hell slot home the equalizer.

Parkhurst does well to recover onto Higuain, who is faced with the decision between a first-touch shot and taking the Atlanta center back off the dribble.

Higuains fake volley sets Parkhurt just off balance enough to allow the Crew SC attacker the time to get around the defender.

Around Parkhurst, Higuain makes a quick shot to the keepers right. Kamara is absolutely offside but arguably does not interfere with the play.

Higuains right-footed-shot levels the match.

Spotted: Millie Bobby Brown Playing Doctor On ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ – Konbini US

The year is 2015. For the past two years Millie Bobby Brown, yet to become a household name, has been discovering the joys of acting.

The third child of a family of four kids, Millie's family emigrated to Orlando, Florida, when the futureactress was four years old.

Kelly and Robert Brown started to notice their daughter's star talent at a young age, deciding to invest everything in taking Millie to auditions around the country.

A worthwhile investment, it was to turn out, as in 2013, Millie Bobby Brown found her first role in Alice in Wonderland spin-off Once Upon a Time.

From there she bagged a regular double role as a brother and sister duo on BBC America'sIntruders.

After makingbrief appearances in NCIS and Modern Family, Millie Bobby Brown touched down atGrey Sloan Memorial Hospital for a spot inGreys Anatomyinwhat wouldturn out to be her last role as an unknown actor.

In the episode "I Feel the Earth Move" of Grey's Anatomy season eleven, the city of Seattle is hit by a serious earthquake which rocks the roots of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. As a result, Maggie and Ethan find themselves stuck in a lift while Meredith takes over a series of tricky operations.

With the emergency services inundated with calls, Owen receives a call directly to the hospital from a panicked young girl called Ruby. Her mother has fallen and is unconscious, prompting Owen to join forces with the police to track the call and come to the girl's aid.

Owen and Amelia team up to help Ruby's mother over the telephone and discover that her airways are blocked.

(Photo: ABC)

Things quickly go from bad to worse when the woman's lips start turning blue. The young girl examines her mother's throat in an attempt to get rid of any obstacles but nothing works.

Finally, the doctors realize that the woman is suffering from a tension pneumothorax and the little girl is forced to pierce her mother's throat to release the trapped air.

While the operation works briefly, the woman loses consciousness again and Owen has to teach Ruby how to perform CPR (to the rhythm of the Bee Gee's "Stayin' Alive", of course).

In the end, the family is finally rescued and helicoptered into the hospital. Of course, Ruby's mother survives and in classic Grey's Anatomy style, Owen and Ruby come together for an emotional reunion.

Following the success of her role as Eleven in the breakout hit Stranger Things, Millie Bobby Brown is in for a seriously busy year. Along with her young colleagues from the Netflix original show, she's been reeling off appearances on talk shows and panels like nobody's business.

Everywhere she lands, she seems to unveil a new talent from singing at the Emmysto rapping with Jimmy Fallon. She's also been picked to face a Calvin Klein line and collaborated with Converse. The most impressive part of it all: she's still only 13 years old.

With filming of Stranger Things season two done and dusted, Millie is ready to break the world of Hollywood blockbusters, starting withGodzilla: Kings of the Monstersset for a 2019 release.

Ready to hit Netflix on October 31, here's hoping Stranger Things manages to avoid Netflix's recent cancellation spree and live on for another few seasons.

Anatomy of a Suicide review unhappy days are here again – The Guardian

Brilliant: Hattie Morahan in Anatomy of a Suicide. Photograph: Tristram Kenton for the Observer

When sadness runs through a family, is it inherited? Alice Birchs skewering Anatomy of a Suicide suggests something more complicated. A sort of hypnotism. A transfixing of one generation by another. A daughter who finds her mothers life compelling may vacate her own existence.

Three generations of women enact their histories from the 1970s to the 2040s side by side. They are so closely woven together that it is hard to know where one begins and the other ends. Does the suicide of her mother cause the breakdown of a woman when she gives birth? Does that womans drug habit steer her daughter towards becoming a doctor and sterilisation? Words home is one that recurs and gestures echo between them. When a woman speaks of wrists, her mother (who has tried to slit hers) sends her hand pirouetting gracefully in the air.

Birchs dialogue is as unswerving as it is in her Lady Macbeth screenplay, but more intricate. The influence of Caryl Churchill is apparent in ellipses and overlaps. But there is individual sharpness. Hurrah for this response to a woman who says she is sorry because her acquaintance does not have a husband. What a funny thing to say.

Hattie Morahan brilliantly vanishes. Her mellow voice is dulled, her limbs are angular, her features are fixed. All her systems are shrinking. Adelle Leonce gives a beautifully judged performance as her granddaughter: fervent but contained. Kate OFlynn is remarkable: a bolt of unhappiness. She has arrived as a vital actress in stealthy splendour, not as a lightning flash. A knockout four years ago in Port and last year in The Glass Menagerie, here she is metallic with grief.

Taking us into depression so deeply means a bleaching out, and levelling of texture. The play is both riveting and static. Director Katie Mitchells distinctive trance style comes into its own. Between scenes, each woman stands like a mannequin, as clothes are slipped on and off. As if life were simply draped over them.

At the Royal Court theatre, London, until 8 July

Gianforte proved himself unworthy

Montana, I am disappointed that we have just elected another rich man to represent us in Congress.

Greg Gianforte proved himself unworthy of our trust the day before the election, yet actions do not appear to matter much anymore. In his victory speech, he said Congress should not get paid until the budget is balanced, he will vote for term limits, and is standing with President Trump to make America great again. To take him at his word then, he will stand with conservative Republicans on health-care legislation that Congress has already exempted themselves from (why would they do that if it is good for us and how is it even allowed under our Constitution?); pass laws that seek to control women and limit their rights; oppress minorities; and disregard science, which will further diminish the health of our planet.

Why are we electing people that want to take away what little liberal safety nets exist for the poor, sick and elderly?

Dont believe the claims that these efforts are being passed for our national security and economic well-being. How secure is a nation if its own people arent fed, healthy, and have equal access to education? If we have some measure of those things now, however imperfect, isnt America STILL a great nation?

I am proud to be a fourth-generation Montanan, but this make America great again is nothing but a deception and manipulation by the wealthy and a dysfunctional two-party system. Kathy Smith, Bigfork

A letter to my Democrat friends:

I know you are all in shock that the good people of Montana should have the gall to elect as our congressman a man who allegedly manhandled a member of the media who tried to shove his tape recorder up his nose.

Surely this should have been the death knell of his political life.

So I suggest you take a week or so off, clutch your pearls, enjoy pate de foie gras, sip your chardonnay in haunts far away from the great unwashed, then re-enter life, and contemplate how such a political disaster could possibly have occurred.

Could it be attributable to one, or some, or all of the following?

Your candidate was unqualified unless guitar playing is a prerequisite for public office.

Your candidates accomplishments were in the local entertainment field, not in the real world.

Your candidate was unprepared to discuss the issues.

Your candidates personal finances were a disaster.

Your candidate was lawsuit happy, suing a respected local doctor and thereby bringing out in public his STD and his marijuana use.

Your candidates bringing Bernie Sanders out from the crypt to stump for him was, well, sort of bizarre for Montana.

Your candidate was in it for the paycheck.

Seems to me that the Democratic Party has a sort of death wish these days. First Mrs. Clinton playing her role of every mans ex-wife, running on a platform that she has female genitalia and thereby deserves to be elected, and now a troubadour who wanted to sing his way into the halls of Congress. Might there not be some really qualified folks on the left that you could put up for office, or is the bench really that thin? Mind you, I must confess that I like it this way, sending forth the unqualified and unelectable to stand for public office, but you might want to consider whether the results justify the effort and money expended in the process. Cy Appel, Whitefish

Mr. Greg Gianforte has won the special election for the sole Montana House seat in the U.S. Congress. His 6 percent margin over the Democratic nominee, Rob Quist, earned our congratulations and best wishes.

Our state, because of our population of 1 million and 65,000 people, is limited to only one member in the House of Representatives. Consider the fact that the city of Los Angeles alone has 18 members of the U.S. House and one begins to grasp the challenge facing Montanas single representative. I was fortunate to serve Western Montana in the U.S. House for seven terms beginning in 1980 and become our lone congressman for two terms starting in 1992. In that rather lonely position one quickly understands the importance of the old-fashioned values of rapport, friendliness, and patience. Neither a hot temper nor tendencies toward violence are considered attributes in the House. Montana has been embarrassed enough.

It is true that most who successfully campaign for political office possess a sense of pride and that is particularly evident in those who arrive in Congress not only victorious in politics but also come there having become recently wealthy from success in business. Hopefully our new congressman, who will be the wealthiest person in the House, brings to his new legislative task a natural sense of humility.

The Washington, D.C., press corps is comprised of very bright and friendly reporters brimming with talent and curiosity. Each has a deep respect for their assigned task of reporting the publics business. This country cannot survive without the press and its well-educated cadre of individuals determined to ferret out the truth. They deserve the respect of as all our citizens and that includes every elected official as well.

To my thinking, one of the most valued sentiments for a representative from here is a sense of satisfaction. Since returning home in 1997, I have earnestly hoped each of our newly elected Montana members of the House would not use the election as simply a stepping-stone to a run for the Senate. Our state needs seniority in the House.

Good luck and best wishes, Mr. Gianforte. You will need it and so will we. Pat Williams, Missoula

If you were harassed by a person claiming to be a journalist what should you do?

We know that congressional candidate Greg Gianforte was harassed by a person claiming to represent a British journal. Harassment was annoying and steady.

There are claims that Mr. Gianfortes stern response was sudden and unprovoked.

There also are claims that Mr. Gianforte stood up for all of us in his response and that nobody should be harassed. What constitutes a provocation? Is there a right to trespass and dominate private events? Can an activist claim to be a reporter?

Should public figures be harassed while the rest of us are protected by law? What is the best response?

Mr. Gianforte is a Republican. Would we tolerate similar mistreatment of a Democrat? What harassment must you and I tolerate if we are involved in a newsworthy event? Can national tension be reduced?

Missoula protesters recently did their worst to stop calls for facts and figures on mass immigration of refugees. Police could not defend because there had been no violence, only threats and harassment. Reporters refused balanced coverage.

The tension grows. What do you think? John H. Jack Wiegman, Missoula

Greg Gianforte eventually apologized to the reporter he manhandled on election night. For some the apology was late and inadequate. For others Gianforte shouldnt have apologized to the liberal reporter at all. Such is the divided nature of these times.

If Gianforte owed an apology, though, it was to the people of Montana for reaching the age of 56 and showing the maturity of a 7-year-old.

Gianforte was under stress when he attacked the reporter. Political campaigns are stressful. But so is holding public office. In this session of Congress, Gianforte will have to make tough decisions, sometimes late at night when he is bone-tired and under pressure, on health care, tax reform, the priorities of a balanced budget, energy and the environment, and a host of other contentious issues with big implications for Montana people. Coolheaded and careful judgment will be required.

Both Steve Daines and Jon Tester provide Montanans with sure-footed and responsible representation in the U.S. Senate. Both are respected and effective. Both are relatively young and building valuable seniority. Good for Montana, but not adequate if our so
le spokesman in the House is a loose cannon. Thoughtful Montanans can only reserve judgment on Gianforte. He has a lot to prove and little time to transform himself from a lifetime of becoming the man he is.

Violent escapades are not new in American politics, but they can be a sign of the times in which they occur. In 1856 shortly before the country was ripped apart by the Civil War, pro-slavery South Carolina Congressman Preston Brooks blind-sided anti-slavery Massachusetts Sen. Charles Sumner on the Senate floor, and beat the defenseless Sumner so viciously with his cane that he broke it. The result was that Sumner, an invalid for the rest of his life, was made a martyr in Massachusetts and most of the North, whereas Bully Brooks became an instant hero in the South, receiving dozens of canes from soon to be Confederates across cotton country.

In 1950, Sen. Joe McCarthy, furious with newspaper columnist Drew Pearson, hurled Pearson against a wall as the guests were leaving a Washington, D.C., dinner, and was vigorously kneeing Pearson in the groin, when young newly elected Sen. Richard Nixon wrestled the burly McCarthy off of the traumatized Pearson.

In the press coverage that followed, the country was deeply divided about whether the liberal Pearson had it coming, or whether the brutish McCarthy was an out-of-control right-wing fanatic. This was near the beginning of the time in history remembered for McCarthyism.

Maybe similarly the Gianforte episode is an early indicator of a new period in our political culture already described by some as Trumpism.

Broad minded, thoughtfully balanced representation by Greg Gianforte would send a positive signal from a congressman elected by only 50.2 percent, and with something to prove. But if Gianforte identifies with the renegade and divisive Freedom Caucus, that will send another signal. Time wont be long in telling. Bob Brown, Whitefish

To the press panel on Face the State on June 4, let me provide perspective outside the self-serving, self-righteous and self-interested bubble in which you live.

Greg Gianfortes confrontation with the Guardian reporter did not constitute coverage of a public official. Mr. Gianforte was a private individual running for public office. Accordingly, Mr. Gianforte had no obligation to humor the press.

Second, no one surrenders private property rights when they run for office. A campaign office is private property. If asked to leave and a reporter stays, he or she is trespassing.

Third, no comment means no comment. A reporter has no entitlement to badger asked and answered. No candidate has an obligation to the press. Freedom of the press is freedom from censorship, not a license to operate outside the law or engage in harassing, trespassing or slandering.

Finally, I for one and many people I talk with believe the Guardian reporter, Ben Jacobs, had an agenda, a liberal agenda in-line with the left leaning politics that infect the Guardian, and his goal was to provoke a confrontation specifically to embarrass and damage the campaign of Mr. Gianforte at the 11th hour. Kevin Corbett, Whitefish

Although I dont agree 100 percent with the end result in now-Congressman Greg Gianfortes scuffle with reporter Jacobs, I feel this matter needs to be addressed as what could have been an orchestrated political assassination attempt against the GOP.

Can one consider the possibility that Mr. Jacobs was choreographed similar to the MoveOn.org protesters that were paid to rally against President Trump last fall? If I were a Republican candidate for any office, I would have an experienced security team that could diffuse any confrontational journalistic privilege from a trespasser to a closed venue on the eve of Election Day. How would Gianforte know whether that uninvited microphone shoved into his face at a BBQ wasnt a weapon? Mr. Jacobs was aggressively approaching a highly publicized candidate with maximum media exposure in an important race and may have instigated the action to get an end result such as this ... either to sabotage a successful campaign at the last moment ... or as an ambulance chaser to ultimately make a civil claim against a powerful multi-millionaire for personal gain.

As a martial-arts instructor and a past personal bodyguard, I can sympathize with Rep. Gianfortes dilemma here. Let me explain. Mr. Gianfortes security team should accept liability for not being immediately present to diffuse this situation. This is their job ... to protect their employer. This is what they are trained, licensed and bonded to perform. They dropped the ball, not Mr. Gianforte. Every action should be met with a reaction. If Mr. Gianfortes security team wasnt up to the task, I dont know that any other public figure would have reacted any differently. What if this happened to a female politician? What if the security team was actually present and they physically removed Mr. Jacobs for trespassing and invading Mr. Gianfortes personal space ... and maybe even took him to the ground to inspect what could have been a weapon. This scenario wreaks of a sabotage by the left to me.

Again, I do not agree completely with Mr. Gianforte taking this small scuffle to the ground, but he may have recognized it as a threat and simply defended himself, when security wasnt present as they should have been. I would caution Rep. Gianforte to beware and prepare for not only Fake News to be prevalent in his political career, but for some new ambulance chaser to appear out of the woodwork, looking to make a buck, even though Mr. Jacobs was unharmed except for his pride, machismo and broken glasses.

Fake journalism can affect us all in a negative manner. Ive been a victim of it myself, so I can sympathize. I would encourage the naysayers to give Congressman Gianforte the benefit of a doubt ... as a family man, honest businessman that employed hundreds of Montanans and a good Christian. He earned my vote and that of the majority. Suck it up and hope for the best from your new congressman from the great state of Montana. Kevin Moore, Bigfork

The disconnect is still there between the press and the average Montana citizen as shown by the reactions to the shoving match between Rep. Gianforte and reporter Ben Jacobs.

Giantorte has been chastised and rightfully so, but the egregious actions of Jacobs which precipitated the incident have been wrongfully neglected to the detriment of all reporters. Its time for our news organizations to create a board which would promulgate a code of conduct like other professions. In so doing they could effectively corral thuggish reporters into a more acceptable line of conduct more nearly matching the values and feelings of the citizens of Montana.

Most people I talk to did not feel at all sorry for Jacobs, hence the lack of reaction in the way of votes during the election (in fact many think it may have helped Gianforte). Jacobs was not invited to the press meeting underway. Ignoring this fact, he barged into the room anyway, shoved a microphone in the face of Gianforte and started peppering him with questions even after being asked to leave. His behavior was rude at best and he was guilty of trespass and possibly assault at worst. The reaction, though regrettable, was predictable. Montanans are fair-minded people but also realistic. They know there are many spots in Montana where Jacobs behavior would have ended up with his microphone protruding out of some posterior orifice tweeting comments the like of which havent been heard before with many people speculating he got what he deserved.

Our news organizations have lost their effectiveness for many reasons, not the least of which is the boorish, rude and at times, immature actions of rogue reporters like Jacobs. A code of conduct that specifies what is and what is not appropriate for the actions of reporters would go a long ways toward correcting that situation. For instance, if a person does not want to do an interview with a reporter, that is his/her right and it should be resp
ected. Crowding in front of others to press forward your agenda without regards to others should be discouraged and, if continued, punished in some manner or another. Courtesy and politeness should be encouraged. Such a policy would go a long way into bringing respect and credibility back into the reporting profession.

Rep. Gianforte reacted badly to this situation, but Jacobs actions are worthy of criticism as well. They were completely uncalled for and ultimately ineffective. Indeed his actions have cast a bad shadow over reporters in general which is unfair to our hard working reporters who are trying to do a professional job.

Our news organizations need to clean up this mess with policies which enhance the professionality of reporting not just in Montana, but the rest of our country as well. Such policies would be warmly welcomed. And as for Ben Jacobs I have this advice: If you want to be accepted and effective when reporting in Montana learn to mind your manners.

Could The Blacklist, Grey’s Anatomy finish up their episode… – CarterMatt

Over the past week or so, weve witnessed a whole flurry of announcements related to shows and the current health crisis. The productions of a vast majority of shows on the air, whether it be NCIS, Last Man Standing, Supernatural, The Flash, have been halted indefinitely. Theres no timeline as to when anything will get back to normal, and there is a reasonably good chance that the world may notfeelnormal for a very long time.

For some more news onThe Blacklistin video form,remember to watch our take on the shows future below. After you do watch that, remember to also subscribeto CarterMatt on YouTube and view our series playlist. Well have other news and updates as the season progresses.

At the moment, the best thing that we can do is take care, be safe, and then also look towards the new episodes we know that were getting. ForThe Blacklistin particular, we know that there are a number that have already been filmed and still are set to air and there may be a tiny bit of hope that the remainder could be filmed down the road. With that being said, nothing is 100% official at present. Deadline reports thatThe Blacklist(which has three and a half episodes left) is one of a small handful of shows still hoping to come back and finish production this season.Greys Anatomyis another. Yet, theres no guarantee that any of this will happen and, from our vantage point, it feels unliekly with the current state of the world.

Of course, we presume its possible that some of these shows could go back and film these episodes later this spring and air them into the summer but what would that mean going into the fall? The shows that probably have the largest question marks around them at the moment are ones like Supernatural andEmpire,given that both of them are currently in the midst of their final season. They would certainly like to wrap up their story on their own terms eventually.

Society Delhi: The Anatomy of a Riot – The Diplomat

Advertisement

Riots, the deadliest the Indian capital of New Delhi has seen in a decade, have claimed 25 lives, including a policeman and an intelligence officer.

Over 200 civilians were injured. At least two mosques were vandalized and torched by supporters of the ruling Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP); houses and shops of Muslims were gutted; and petrol pumps, tire markets, and innumerable vehicles were set afire during the three days of violence. Ironically, U.S. President Donald Trump, who was in India for his maiden visit, praised Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for religious toleranceeven as the chaos unspooled.

Several journalists who were covering the riots were beaten or heckled, their mobile phones and cameras snatched away. Some were asked to prove if they were Hindus and were let off only if they agreed not to write anything against the rioters.

The arson went on for three days before a shoot-at-sight order by the police was given in the riot-hit areas. However, according to eyewitnesses, despite the order, supporters of the BJP continued to gather and chant inflammatory slogans.

From Clashes to a Pogrom

The violence broke out in Jaffrabad, Babarpur, Brahmapuri, Gorakh Park, Maujpur, Bhajanpura, Kabir Nagar, Chand Bag, Gokulpuri, Karawal Nagar, Khajoori Khas, and Kardam Puri areas after BJP leader Kapil Mishra issued a three-day ultimatum to police to clear a protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) by women at the Jaffrabad Metro Station.

Mishra said, We are giving Delhi Police three days to clear the roads in Jaffrabad and Chand Bagh. We wont listen to you [police] after this. The video of his speech went viral on social media; in the footage, a police officer could be seen standing beside Mishra and smiling while Mishra made the threat.

Women protesters had blocked the road at Jaffarabad on Saturday night to protest the controversial CAA and to support a strike called by Bhim Army chief Chandrashekhar Azad on Sunday. The protest at Jaffrabad was meant to replicate the women-led protest against the CAA, which has been going on for two months at Shaheen Bagh.

Just before the New Delhi elections, several BJP leaders had given incendiary speeches against the anti-CAA protesters, calling them traitors and terrorists. A majority of the protesters are Muslims.

Union Minister of State for Finance Anurag Thakur, from the ruling BJP, raised the slogan of Desh ke gaddaro ko, goli maaro s***o ko (shoot the traitors of India) at a crowded election rally in Delhi. A few days later, BJP member of parliament Parvesh Verma addressed an election gathering by saying, Lakhs of people gather there [Shaheen Bagh]. They will enter your houses, rape your sisters and daughters, kill them. Theres time today Modi-Ji and Amit Shah wont come to save you tomorrow. In terms of repercussions, the MPs merely had their names dropped from the star campaigners list at the order of the Election Commission of India.

During the Delhi elections, the main poll plank of the BJP was to create a divide between the two religious communities, pitting Hindus and Muslims against one another. The partys social media campaign strategy focused on projecting the BJP as the protector of Hindus; as a corollary, anybody who opposes the CAA was painted as a traitor who should be driven out of the country. Union Minister of Home Affairs Amit Shah went on to say, When you press the button on February 8 [the polling day], do so with such anger that its current is felt at Shaheen Bagh.

The BJP lost the elections to the incumbent Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) but managed to retain eight seats out of 70. The recent riots broke out in the constituencies that the BJP had won in the Delhi elections.

Hours after his ultimatum, the BJPs Mishra, infamous for his provocative speeches, tweeted asking people to assemble at Maujpur at 3 p.m. to give an answer to Jaffrabad just a kilometer away.

Supporters of the BJP gathered in large numbers with saffron flags (a symbol of Hinduism). They started raising slogans such as Jai Shree Ram (Hail Lord Ram), Har Has Mahadev (Hail the Shiva), shoot the traitors, and Jo Hindu hit ki baat karega wahi desh par raaj karega (Only those who talk of Hindu wellbeing will rule this country).

The harassment of Muslim residents of the locality, who had nothing to do with the CAA protests, started long before the actual stone-pelting began. Nobody knows who threw the first stone but soon, stone pelting started between both the groups from different communities. Police fired teargas but the violence did not stop.

Policing During the Riots

For three nights, BJP supporters, wearing saffron headgear or carrying saffron flags, continued their rampage with police officials abetting them. Residents said these rioters did not belong to their locality and had come from bordering areas of Delhi.

Several videos circulating on social media show the rioters claiming police officers were with them, while others show how police officers helped the saffron goons collect stones to be thrown during the clashes.

Another video, fact-checked by AltNews, an independent platform that uses data forensics to verify viral content, showed police officers beating a group of injured men lying on the road and forcing them to sing the national anthem. One of the officers who was recording a video egged a man, hardly conscious, to sing the national anthem properly.

The Delhi Police comes under the jurisdiction of the Indian Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), headed by the BJPs Amit Shah..

Several journalists reporting from the ground reported that the police did not stop the rioting BJP supporters and even provided them with cover while they continued to pelt stones, burn property, and attack people.

Amit Mishra, a member of AAP, tweeted a video from Mustafabad where rioters were seen barging into homes chanting Jai Shree Ram even when shoot-at-sight orders were in force. In several localities, police were also seen breaking the CCTV cameras installed at street squares.

At least two mosques in Mustafabad were vandalized and attacked with stones. There were several children inside one of the mosques and they were rescued by the residents. Even the children had been beaten with rods and had serious injuries.

Of those who lost their lives, a few could be identified, including police head constable Rattan Lal, who died of a bullet injury. Two policemen have received grievous injuries.

Intelligence bureau officer Ankit Sharmas body was found in a drain. His father accused Tahir Hussain, an AAPcouncilor, of kidnaping and killing his son.

The father of Rahul Solanki, another victim, blamed BJP leader Kapil Mishra for instigating violence in the area that claimed his sons life.

Supporters of the BJP blocked the main road, cutting the localities off, and did not let ambulances reach the riot-hit areas. Several local Hindu residents helped their Muslim neighbors by taking them to hospitals since the rioters only let Hindus pass.

A minor boy who had gone out to get food for his family was shot in the crossfire and had to wait for an ambulance for six hours with a bullet still in his body. A police vehicle finally took him to the hospital, where he had to wait again for treatment.

In several other localities, people were either locked inside their homes or were not able to return. In Gamri extension, near Khajoori Khas, an 85-year-old woman burned to death when a mob of 100 rioters torched her house. Her family members managed to escape just in time but she was bedridden and could not be rescued.

Even as barbarity played out on the streets, there were
hardly any steps taken by the leaders of AAP and the Congress to help people in the riot-hit areas. When members of the Jamia Coordination Committee gathered in front of the residence of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, police dispersed them with water cannons.

Journalists Shot at, Beaten

Over a dozen journalists were attacked and intimidated while they were covering the Delhi riots. Akash Napa of JK 24 was shot at by a mob at Maujpur and was admitted to the GTB Hospital with a bullet lodged in his body.

Saurabh Shukla, Arvind Gunasekar, and Runjhun Sharma of NDTV were surrounded by BJP supporters while they were filming a mosque being vandalized and burnt at Gokulpuri. Both Shukla and Gunasekar were beaten badly. Sharma was asked to leave but she refused and pleaded with the mob to let her colleagues go. It was only after the mob saw the Hindu names on the journalists identity cards that they were let go and even then Gunasekar was forced to delete the videos first.

Hindu ho? Bach gaye (You are saved because you are Hindu), was what a rioter told Shivnarayan Rajpurohit of Indian Express after he was attacked by a mob. His diary and phone were taken away, his glasses were broken, and he was slapped twice for reporting from a Hindu-dominated area.

I was attacked by pro CAA protestors for reporting facts. A group of men armed with sticks and bricks cornered me to hit me, I pleaded them and ran for my life, tweeted Parvina Purkayastha of Times Now.

Sreya Chatterjee, a freelance journalist, tweeted: Yes! I was on the ground where Pro-CAA protestors burned houses. Broke shops. Started pelting stones towards Anti-CAA protestors. This was before Anti-CAA protestors reacted.

Anindya Chattopadhyay, a photojournalist with Times of India, wrote a first-person account in which he narrated how he was attacked by the rioters, who threatened to take off his pants to check if he was a Muslim.

Several other journalists were abused and intimidated and were asked to prove their religion. They reported extensively on how a clash turned into a riot and then a pogrom.

Trump Praises Modi for Religious Tolerance

Even as the violence raged in Delhi, U.S. President Trump was basking in the warm welcome from Prime Minister Modi.

The tryst of two political behemoths was meant to be a spectacle. Modi reciprocated the validation he received at the Howdy Modi event in September last year with Namaste Trump, which ate away approximately $13 million from Gujarats annual budget.

For the event, Trump was welcomed at the worlds largest cricket stadium, Motera, in Ahmedabad. While the two recounted their friendship during Namaste Trump, a swathe of the northeastern side of Indias capital burned.

The Trump welcome party continued unabated, despite the widespread violence.

I dont want to say anything on CAA. It is up to India. I hope it will take the right decision for its people, Trump said in a press conference at the end of his two-day visit. When asked about the Delhi violence, he said he didnt discuss individual attacks.

The Morning After

It was only after Trumps departure that the social media-savvy prime minister tweeted: Peace and harmony are central to our ethos. I appeal to my sisters and brothers of Delhi to maintain peace and brotherhood at all times. It is important that there is calm and normalcy is restored at the earliest.

The delay is not as odd as it might seem. Modi likes to finish the task at hand before paying attention to other issues.After all, he made sure to complete shooting on the Man vs Wild television special with the team of the Discovery Channel even on the day 48 Central Reserve Police Force personnel lost their lives in Pulwama.

On Tuesday night, however, Home Minister Shah convened a high-level meeting with his political opponent chief minister Arvind Kejriwal and Modis national security adviser, Ajit Doval, was sent to the riot-hit areas to assess the situation.

Doval came back to say the situation was under control, even when people kept reporting attacks and life in northeast Delhi was at a complete standstill. On Tuesday night, rumors of stone-pelting emerged from Laxmi Nagar area, a densely packed market area in east Delhi. BJP member of the legislative assembly Abhay Verma claimed he reached the spot to diffuse tensions but he along with his supports were seen marching in the area raising provocative slogans such as shoot the traitors.

Rays of Hope

At a time when the riot-hit citizens have nowhere to go, several Gurdwaras in north Delhi, including the prominent Majnu Ka Tila Gurdwawa, opened to their door to people fleeing the violence.

In other localities, Hindu and Muslim residents stood up for each other. In Seelampur, Dalits blocked the roads against mobs and sheltered their Muslim neighbors.

In Bhajanpura, Chandbag, Hindu residents narrated how their Muslim neighbors saved a temple from being vandalized by outsiders. Rajendra Kumar Mishra, a resident of the area, told BBC that Chandbag is 70 percent Muslim households. Residents, both Hindus and Muslims, formed watch parties to save each other from violence.

In Brijpuri area, Hindu and Muslim residents took out a unity march condemning the violence and chanting slogans that they will not let their locality be destroyed.

As violent riots tore through the northeastern part of the city, several individuals came forward to provide shelter and medical assistance to injured people.

After all the government machinery had failed, it was Delhi High Court that convened a midnight hearing at 12:30 a.m. on Wednesday and ordered the police to ensure the safe passage of injured victims to the hospitals.

The court convened at the residence of Justice Murlidhar after advocate Suroor Mander explained that 22 people were trapped in Al-Hind Hospital.

On Wednesday morning, the court convened again and pulled up the Delhi police for their failure during the riots. The court also registered first information reports (FIRs) against the three BJP leaders, Kapil Mishra, Anurag Thakur, and Parvesh Verma, for inciting violence.

The court said it cannot allow another 1984, referring to the anti-Sikh riots after former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was killed. It ordered authorities to scale up efforts to help riot victims.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’: Will the Blizzard Bring Meredith and McWidow Together? – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

The last Greys Anatomy episode of February 2020 could be an important one for Meredith Grey. Shes spending even more time with Cormac Hayes (Richard Flood), aka McWidow. Will Snowblind be the episode that finally establishes a romantic connection between them?

Just as fans were getting accustomed to MerLuca (the portmanteau for Merediths relationship with Andrew DeLuca, the chief resident at Grey Sloan), someone new walks in. In the mid-season finale, Meredith returns to the hospital, not long after her breakup with DeLuca. She then begins working with Hayes, who has taken over Alex Karevs position as head of pediatrics.

The two spend a day working together, though they clash at first. Throughout all of this, Meredith has been texting with her best friend, Cristina Yang, who has been living in and working in Europe for years. She tells Meredith she has sent her a package to cheer her up after her split. As it turns out, Hayes is the package.

Even though they dont get along at first, Meredith soon learns that she and the new doctor have a lot in common. While working together, he confesses that he, too, is a single parent. His wife passed away from cancer two years ago. In another episode, we meet his two teenage sons.

Though Meredith isnt necessarily drawn to him in a romantic way just yet, its easy to see how the writers are laying the groundwork. Her issues with DeLuca come back to how he doesnt feel that he can measure up to her, as he is younger and less accomplished, and doesnt understand what shes been through. McWidow, on the other hand, is proving to be the opposite.

Meredith and DeLuca have been able to mend fences over the past couple of weeks. In Save the Last Dance for Me, theyre shown having resumed the more fun aspects of their relationship, but they dont establish what they are to one another. This all boiled over in last weeks episode, A Diagnosis.

Though Meredith is worried about him, DeLuca cant stop obsessing over the case hes been working on. He interrupts her conversation with Hayes, and speaks in Italian (something they do just to one another). As it turns out, Hayes also speaks Italian, and tells DeLuca to Learn some d*** respect. Later, DeLuca breaks up with Meredith again.

This weeks episode is another Station 19 crossover event, The Blizzard. In the Greys Anatomy episode, titled Snowblind, Hayes has a young patient who is waiting on a liver. But the storm has caused roads to be shut down. So DeLuca volunteers to go out and get it on his own.

Last weeks episode was clearly a set-up for a Meredith-Hayes-DeLuca storyline. Will Meredith become more impressed with Hayes as they work together, or will his heroic act remind her of why she cares so much about DeLuca? Well find out on Feb. 27, 2020.

‘Birds of Prey’ | Anatomy of a Scene – The New York Times

Hi, Im Cathy Yan, the director of Birds of Prey. So were near the end of the movie. And this is the culminating, the final fight scene between the women and the gangs that Roman Sionis, played by Ewan McGregor, sends in to the funhouse, which is called the Booby Trap. Well, originally, it wasnt a funhouse, actually. I believe, originally, it was a hotel. And they were supposed to fight their way down. But then, when I got together with our amazing production designer, KK Barrett, and our DP, Matthew Libatique, we kind of thought, wouldnt it be more interesting to convey a location that felt like Harley Quinns mind on acid? Our actresses, theyre actually doing the majority of the stunts themselves. That was four to five months of brutal training. When we were in prep, the actors were training pretty much every day with our stunt team. Come on! Margot learned to roller skate for this movie because she ends up roller skating in a good portion of the movie. She learned to roller skate on a bank track for the derby scene. And then, obviously, shes roller skating here. And for this moment, she is actually just roller skating. And she was so she became so good that she was able to stop herself, which is actually the most difficult thing to do, while on a rotating carousel, which is infinitely harder than when youre not on a rotating carousel. What was another big challenge that we only sort of realized on the day, too, was that because the background was so different, for continuity, whenever we started a take, we had to make sure that we started and ended at the same point. So the carousel became a sort of clock. And we had a number for each of the hands. And then each hand had to directly correlate with a point outside in the funhouse so that we were able to actually match up the backgrounds. If we didnt do that, then it would have been a complete nightmare. [MUSIC PLAYING] [SHOUTS] Ah. Wait.

The anatomy of a perfect 10: Analyzing Alabama gymnastics routines – The University of Alabama Crimson White

Katie Windham | @ktwindham5, Staff ReporterFebruary 20, 2020

From mount to dismount, a collegiate uneven bars routine lasts about 15-20 seconds. Behind that 15-second routine are years of training, months of preparation and just the right combination of skills and point values.

Many gymnasts on the Alabama roster competed at the Elite Gymnastics or Junior Olympics levels, where scoring is completely different than in college. Sophomore Emily Gaskins, who was a three-time member of the United States national team, made adjustments to her routine while at Alabama.

Our scoring systems were, if you got a 14 and 15, it was awesome, Gaskins said. And coming to college, you dont have that score and it only goes to 10. You take out a lot of skills in your routine. Youre going from about a minute bar routine to a 10-second, 15-second bar routine.

At the level of a program like Alabama gymnastics, outside of vault which is a one-skill routine every gymnasts routine starts at a 10.0 value. It takes a lot to reach that value, including the basics that must be included in every routine.

Your skills are basically labeled a value of an A, B, C, D and E, coach Dana Duckworth said. When you develop a routine, there are minimum requirements in bars, beam and floor. You have to have three As, two Bs and two Cs.

Every Alabama gymnast has more than As, Bs and Cs in their routine. For example, senior Wynter Childers starts her bars routine out with a kip cast handstand, which is an A skill. She will then release to the high bar with a Maloney, a D-level skill. Then she goes immediately back to the low bar with a bail, which is another D skill.

Childers gets a one-tenth bonus for each D-level skill. Because she connects the two, she gets another 0.20 bonus, which is the CV, or connection value. And those are just three of the skills in her routine.

Every routine requires a total of eight skills, even if the 10.0 start value has already been reached. For example, freshman Ella Burgess routine had all the required difficulty to reach a 10.0 start value on beam, but she only had seven skills, so they had to add a switch leap.

Even though 15-20 seconds seems like a short amount of time to a fan watching from the stands or on TV, there is a lot running through a gymnasts mind during that time. For some, like senior Shea Mahoney, it helps to constantly stay thinking throughout the routine.

So Ill mount the bar, and I just have mental cues, Mahoney said. For me its more of a feeling, and then little tiny words. If I just keep kind of talking to myself throughout the whole bar routine, that is how Ill get through.

Mahoneys mental cues for bars are: mount, tight cast, tight hips, catch the bar, jump to the high bar, tight hips, catch the bar, giant, giant, squeeze your core, look at the ground, wait another second and then really look at the ground, dismount.

Before mounting the bars, Mahoney said she smiles because it releases any last bit of tension or nervousness.

For sophomore Jensie Givens, every uneven bars routine starts with a nod to assistant coach Ryan Roberts, a nod to Gaskins and a deep breath to remind herself that Gods got her. And then she moves into her routine of handstands, a Jaeger (a D-level skill), a bail to the low bar, three giants and a double layout dismount, hoping for the all-important stick on the landing.

Alabama will once again put these skilled routines to the test when it takes on the Florida Gators in Gainesville, Florida, on Friday at 5 p.m.
