On 15 April 1989, 96 men, women and children died in what remains the most serious tragedy in UK sporting history - the Hillsborough Stadium disaster. For almost 30 years the survivors and the families of the dead had to campaign against the police, government and media who blamed the fans for the tragedy. Eventually, in 2016 a second inquest ruled

This book contains biographical chapters on important jugglers mostly forgotten to history.

How can people of faith respond to the worsening crisis of climate change? This brief, eloquent book attempts to address the issues by sketching a moral arc. Citizen-activist David Cain has written Climate Guardians -- a must-read book for our times -- to inspire people of faith to move beyond "climate empathy" toward action.

This book examines the history and development of the three primary juggling props; balls, rings, and clubs.

This book includes biographies of 27 female jugglers or juggling acts from the past.

This IBM® Redbooks® publication shows how to integrate IBM Software Defined Network for Virtual Environments (IBM SDN VE) seamlessly within a new or existing data center. This book is aimed at pre- and post-sales support, targeting network administrators and other technical professionals that want to get an overview of this new and exciting technology, and see how it fits into the overall vision of a truly Software Defined Environment. It shows you all of the steps that are required to design, install, maintain, and troubleshoot the IBM SDN VE product. It also highlights specific, real-world examples that showcase the power and flexibility that IBM SDN VE has over traditional solutions with a legacy network infrastructure that is applied to virtual systems. This book assumes that you have a general familiarity with networking and virtualization. It does not assume an in-depth understanding of KVM or VMware. It is written for administrators who want to get a quick start with IBM SDN VE in their respective virtualized infrastructure, and to get some virtual machines up and running by using the rich features of the product in a short amount of time (days, not week, or months).

The IBM® Distributed Virtual Switch 5000V (DVS 5000V) is a software-based network switching solution that is designed for use with the virtualized network resources in a VMware enhanced data center. It works with VMware vSphere and ESXi 5.0 and beyond to provide an IBM Networking OS management plane and advanced Layer 2 features in the control and data planes. It provides a large-scale, secure, and dynamic integrated virtual and physical environment for efficient virtual machine (VM) networking that is aware of server virtualization events, such as VMotion and Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS). The DVS 5000V interoperates with any 802.1Qbg compliant physical switch to enable switching of local VM traffic in the hypervisor or in the upstream physical switch. Network administrators who are familiar with IBM System Networking switches can manage the DVS 5000V just like IBM physical switches by using advanced networking, troubleshooting, and management features to make the virtual switch more visible and easier to manage. This IBM Redbooks® publication helps the network and system administrator install, tailor, and quickly configure the IBM Distributed Virtual Switch 5000V (DVS 5000V) for a new or existing virtualization computing environment. It provides several practical applications of the numerous features of the DVS 5000V, including a step-by-step guide to deploying, configuring, maintaining, and troubleshooting the device. Administrators who are already familiar with the CLI interface of IBM System Networking switches will be comfortable with the DVS 5000V. Regardless of whether the reader has previous experience with IBM System Networking, this publication is designed to help you get the DVS 5000V functional quickly, and provide a conceptual explanation of how the DVS 5000V works in tandem with VMware.

GPCR/G protein signaling is a critical component of neuronal signal transduction and function. G protein signaling is regulated by a family of regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins that act as GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) for G[alpha] subunits. In the retina, the R7-RGS family of RGS proteins which specifically act as GAPs toward Gi/o, are critical regulators of phototransduction and ON bipolar cell light responses in the outer retina. While R7-RGS proteins are expressed throughout the inner retina, their function there is unknown. The goal of this dissertation project is to characterize R7-RGS regulation on retina function and vision. This dissertation is divided into four parts: i) analysis of inner retinal function in mature and developing R7BP-/- retinas, ii) characterization of composition and localization of R7-RGS/R7BP complexes in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN), iii) characterization of blockade of RGS regulation of Gi2 and Go subunits on outer retina function, and iv) preliminary analysis of the effect of RGS6 ablation on vision. In part i), we found that R7BP is expressed in starburst amacrine cells (SAC) and retinal ganglion cells (RGC). R7BP regulates mesopic RGC light responses and glutamatergic wave burst duration in mature and developing retina, respectively. In part ii), we found that R7PB is expressed in the dLGN. R7BP interacts with RGS6 and RGS7 in lateral geniculate nucleus lysates, but is not necessary for their membrane localization. In part iii), outer retinal phenotypes of RGS-insensitive Gi2 and Go mutant mice were characterized. RGS regulation of Gi2 is necessary for normal rod light responses. Heterozygous expression of RGS-insensitive Go subunits was not sufficient to perturb ON bipolar cell light responses or dendritic morphology. In part iv), we found that RGS6 is expressed in starburst amacrine cells. RGS6 localization to SAC plexi is independent of R7BP. We demonstrated that, although dispensable for normal phototransduction or ON bipolar light responses, RGS6 is necessary for normal spatial vision. Based on these findings, we suggest that RGS regulation of Gi/o signaling is necessary for normal retinal function and that R7-RGS proteins regulate inner retinal function. Additionally, we identified several new candidate circuits to further explore R7-RGS function in the visual system.

To meet today''s complex and ever-changing business demands, you need a solid foundation of server, storage, networking and software resources that is simple to deploy and can quickly and automatically adapt to changing conditions. You also need access to, and the ability to take advantage of, broad expertise and proven best practices in systems management, applications, hardware maintenance and more. IBM® PureFlex System, which is a part of the IBM PureSystems family of expert integrated systems, combines advanced IBM hardware and software along with patterns of expertise and integrates them into three optimized configurations that are simple to acquire and deploy so you can achieve faster time to value. If you want a pre-configured, pre-integrated infrastructure with integrated management and cloud capabilities, factory tuned from IBM with x86 and Power hybrid solution, IBM PureFlex System is the answer. In this IBM Redbooks® publication, we use EX4500 core switches to demonstrate interoperability with the System Networking switches (RackSwitch G8264 top of rack switch and the Flex system fabric EN4093 10Gb scalable switch). We also describe a redundant environment using QFX3500 switches running IBM Virtual-Link Aggregation Group (MC-LAG/vLAG) and Juniper Multi- Chassis-Link Aggregation Group.
