What you are hearing is a Described Video soundtrack on CBC Television. DV allows vision-impaired Canadians greater access to CBC Television programming by describing the scene and action during pauses in dialogue. The DV soundtrack is delivered on Secondary Audio Program or SAP which is an audio setting on your Television. To turn off the narration, you need to have your television audio set with the SAP feature off and stereo sound on.

Turning SAP on and off is done on most television sets through a menu using the remote control. Every television set is different, so the best way to do that is to follow the instructions in your owner's manual.

The right-wing fanatic who is accused of the murder of Jo Cox MP has opted not to give evidence nor to call any witnesses in his defence. The jury will be directed by the judge as to how to deal with this.

He is of course perfectly entitled to remain silent, just as the jury is perfectly entitled to draw the inferences that it finds proper from his decision. In times past courts sometimes had to decide whether the accused was 'mute of Malice' or 'mute by Visitation of God'.

This is a situation that I have only faced a few times in court. We gravely retired to consider, and I took the bench carefully through the decision making process as if we were assessing a real defence. We then took great care to prepare our reasons for our blindingly obvious decision, reading them out slowly and carefully before handing them down to the Clerk for the file. It all felt a bit unreal, but it is in odd cases such as these that everything has to be done just so.

Guilty it was then, to no one's great surprise.

These memes will make you us want to quit Stalin and overthrow capitalism right Mao.

It's been a fun week for political memes.

Me: “Hey, I’m glad I caught you. I’m calling about that request that I made five weeks ago. You never responded to any of my emails or voice messages. I’m just wondering what the status on that is?”

Client: “Well, the reason I didn’t respond was because your first email about it was unprofessional. We’re all professionals here, and I expect to be treated professionally. You really need to work on your communication skills, and I expect better from you if we’re going to continue working together.”

Me: “I’m looking at the whole email chain right now, and it seems fine to me. What seems wrong with it?”

Client: “Well, for starters, you could ask how my day’s been. Or you could put a joke at the bottom of the email. And you should really get rid of that line with all your company information at the bottom, it looks so unprofessional.”

You've certainly heard of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, but have you heard of the Nutty Narrows Bridge? Futility Closet introduces us to this bridge that was built in 1963 in Longview, Washington.

Workers in an office building near the R. A. Long Park noticed a number of squirrels that were killed crossing the street from the park to an area with abundant nut trees. They proposed that the city build a bridge for them. Two local architects and an engineer designed the bridge, and it was built by contractor Amos Peters. He built the bridge with recycled aluminum piping and a recycled fire hose, for a total cost of a thousand dollars. The bridge is 60 feet long and 22 feet high over the street. A city councilwoman named it the Nutty Narrows Bridge. The bridge has since been removed and repaired several times, and the location has been changed slightly a couple of times. The squirrels love it and use it regularly. The tourist attraction is known as "the world's narrowest bridge," and inspired the city to launch their annual Squirrel Fest in 2011. The bridge was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. -via Nag on the Lake

Did you know that advanced threat actors can infiltrate the identity systems of major organizations and extract sensitive data within days? It’s a chilling reality, becoming more common and concerning by the day. These attackers exploit vulnerabilities in SaaS and cloud environments, using compromised identities to move laterally within networks, causing widespread damage. Cybersecurity and IT

Let’s face it—traditional security training can feel as thrilling as reading the fine print on a software update. It’s routine, predictable, and, let’s be honest, often forgotten the moment it's over. Now, imagine cybersecurity training that’s as unforgettable as your favorite show.

Please note this event begins at 1pm and ends at 2pm. The Ludwig Princeton Distinguished Lectureship features world class cancer researchers. Jeff Rathmell, leading cancer immunologist from Vanderbilt University, will present his talk "Metabolic Control of Immunotherapy and Inflammation." T cells in tumors and other inflamed tissues accumulate signs of stress and mitochondrial damage that affect cell metabolism but remain poorly understood. The metabolism of T cells and other immune cells is dynamically regulated and influences biosynthesis, signaling, and cell fate. We have shown that CD4 T cell subsets are metabolically distinct and that each requires a specific metabolic program for their function. Immune cells do not act in isolation, however, and are subject to systems and microenvironmental factors that shape their metabolism and function. On a systemic level, obesity leads to a state of chronic inflammation and is a risk factor for cancer incidence and progression. However, cancer immunotherapy can be enhanced in obesity in the cancer-obesity paradox. We have shown that induction of the immune checkpoint molecule PD-1 on tumor associated macrophages contributes to this paradox and immunotherapy responses in obese individuals. At a microenvironmental level, tissue temperature changes with body location, fever, and inflammation. We tested the effects of elevated temperatures found that T cells broadly become more pro-inflammatory but a subset of CD4 T cells, Th1 cells, selectively experience mitochondrial stress that activates a heat-sensitive molecular circuit to shape T cell fate. The metabolic interaction of immune cells with their environment can both drive disease and offer new therapeutic opportunities.
