pleased to announce that the 2024 FIM Junior Motocross World Championship will be held at the Circuit Kamperweg Heerde in The Netherlands The venue is a superbly professional and permanent facility in the centre of the country some 50km north of the MXGP circuit at Arnhem In 2008 the Junior World Championship was held in Heerde with Jeffrey Herlings crowned as the 85cc World Champion The race is a showcase for the future stars of Motocross with past winners including the likes of Tim Gajser It is a great stepping stone to make it into the professional world of Motocross and experience competition with a similar feel to an MXGP weekend  You can be certain that there will be factory scouts watching the progress of the best riders as well After a massively popular event at the TCS Racing Park near Bucharest in Romania in July 2023 the move to the classic woodland sand circuit at Heerde should bring another huge entry of riders to compete in the biggest dedicated Junior racing event of the season The Romanian meeting saw the French flyer Mathis Valin crowned as Junior World Champion in the 125cc ranks and Patricks Cirulis of Latvia won the 65cc World Cup was the Junior World Champion in the 85cc class and he moves up to the 125cc class for 2024 The home crowd will be looking to encourage their team to go one better than they did in Romania when they finished a close second to the victorious Italian squad Team France were 3rd ahead of the USA and Latvia in 2023 so there is a genuine international World Championship atmosphere at this incredible event and with fervent local support it promises to be a spine-tingling weekend of action Prudential plc has appointed Patrick van Heerde as chief partnership distribution officer managing director of Prudential’s

rider Metrics details Amyloid fibrils have emerged as innovative tools to enhance the transduction efficiency of retroviral vectors in gene therapy strategies we used cryo-electron microscopy to analyze the structure of a biotechnologically engineered peptide fibril that enhances retroviral infectivity Our findings show that the peptide undergoes a time-dependent morphological maturation into polymorphic amyloid fibril structures The fibrils consist of mated cross-β sheets that interact by the hydrophobic residues of the amphipathic fibril-forming peptide The now available structural data help to explain the mechanism of retroviral infectivity enhancement provide insights into the molecular plasticity of amyloid structures and illuminate the thermodynamic basis of their morphological maturation In the absence of an experimentally determined structure of a virus-binding fibril it is difficult to estimate how these peptide properties manifest themselves at the quaternary structural level of the assembled amyloid fibril Our findings show that the structure is based on a fundamental building principle Each protofilament (PF) is built by two paired cross-β sheets that interact by the hydrophobic side of the amphipathic peptide while the polar residues are pointing outwards These structural features provide insights into the molecular basis of amyloid polymorphism and virus binding and improves our understanding of the molecular basis of peptide nanofibrils as retroviral transduction enhancers a Negative Stain TEM images of in vitro formed PNF-18 fibrils at different times of incubation b Relative abundance of fibril widths of in vitro formed PNF-18 fibrils at different times of incubation a Cryo-EM images of fibril morphologies I − III and others b Crossover

(n = 500 We conclude that the specific morphology of PNF-18 fibrils is not crucial for their virus enhancing infectivity a 4.8 Å tick slice of one molecular layer of the fibril (top) Below are 1.2 Å

showing the polar (green) and apolar (yellow) sites in the molecule b Coulomb surface potential of the cross-sectional view of Morphology II and (c) side view of the fibril Morphology I seems to contain four peptides in each molecular layer and Morphology III eight The general structural similarity of the two fibrils to Morphology II implies the existence of common hierarchical structural principles underlying the formation of differently structured PNF-18 amyloid fibrils and that the three fibril morphologies differ mainly in the number of their constituting PFs suggesting that the altered tilt helps to compensate the higher torsional strain at outer radial positions Biochemical calculation example of the benefit of the conversion of six fibrils of Morphology I (left) into four fibrils of Morphology II (right) The gain is the formation of two additional polar contact modes Chemically synthetic PNF-18 peptide was obtained from the group of Prof Tanja Weil (Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research The peptide was incubated at 0.3 mg/mL concentration in 50 mM HEPES buffer for a period of up to 60 days at room temperature After different time points aliquots were withdrawn from the reaction and analyzed as indicated in each experiment 4 µL of the sample solution were placed onto a glow-discharged carbon coated The sample was incubated on the grid for 1 min at room temperature Surplus solution was removed with filter paper (Whatman) The grid was washed three times with 10 µL water and stained three times with 10 µL 2% (w/v) uranyl acetate in water The dried grids were examined in a JEM-1400 TEM (JEOL) equipped with a F216 camera (TVIPS) that was operated at 120 kV Electron Microscopy Sciences) were glow-discharged for 40 s at 20 mA using a PELCO easiGlow glow discharge cleaning system (TED PELLA) 4 µL of sample were then applied on the grid and incubated for 30 s followed by both side blotting for 8 s (temperature 21° humidity >90%) and plunging into liquid ethane using a Vitrobot Mark 3 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) Grids were screened using a JEM-2100 transmission electron microscope (Jeol) at 200 kV High-resolution data sets of the fibrils were recorded with a Titan Krios (Thermo Fisher Scientific) microscope that was equipped with a K2-Summit detector (Gatan) and operated at an acceleration voltage of 300 kV The width and crossover distance of morphologies were determined from cryo-TEM images using ImageJ software Together with the imposing of a C2 symmetry during reconstruction yielded clearly separated β-strands 3D classification with local optimization of helical twist and rise and a C2 symmetry were used The best 3D class was finally reconstructed with local optimization of the helical parameters using 3D auto-refinement All 3D classification and auto-refine processes were carried out by using a central part of 10% of the intermediate asymmetrical reconstruction The final reconstruction was post-processed with a soft-edge mask and B-factor sharpened The estimate of the resolution of the reconstruction was carried out based on the FSC at 0.143 between two independently refined half-maps The error bars shown in this

up for the Nature Briefing newsletter — what matters in science Race One: Noel Zanocz was just too good in the first moto – he wasn’t top three at the start but it didn’t take him long to get to the front passing his Fantic team mate Simone Mancini – he even had time to wave to his friends in the crowd after making the move Mancini was riding well considering the conditions but then Garcia passed him on the last lap for second Hindersson rode well for fifth ahead of Doensen who will be looking for much more – he should be at the front Team GB’s Jamie Keith rode superb for sixth Cole McCullough got an awful start with only a couple of riders behind him but charged through the field – he got to twelfth with plenty of riders just ahead of him before a costly crash Race Two: Mancini got another holeshot and was looking good at the front but Zanocz was buried down the order outside the top fifteen but he went into beast mode and was passing riders everywhere around a brutal track The Hungarian got up to second which was enough for the overall with Mancini taking the win – he is getting stronger in the sand Garcia ended up on the podium with a third overall McCullough had another crash but battled through to tenth Race One: Moritz Ernecker got the holeshot and was looking superb at the front He did have Levi Townley in hot pursuit as the top five stayed relatively close for the first five minutes Ernecker had a crash which allowed Townley to led and he then started to pull away at the front – he ended up with the win Sleny Goyer from France is good in the sand and finished runner up with Finnish talent After a bad start Leok was flying and worked his way up to fourth America’s Wyatt Duff rode well for fifth while Ernecker was able to get back up to eighth but will be kicking himself Race Two: Leok took the holeshot in race one and never looked back dominating at the front Behind him Townley didn’t get an ideal start He quickly got up to fifth but was stuck there for a while knowing he had to get third to become champ He dug deep and made it happening finishing up in third behind Van den Broek who had a better start in the second moto to show his real speed ending up second HILLSDALE — Coaches Jeff Grant and Crystal Van Heerde led the Hornet varsity bowling team to the Wildcat Blastoff singles tournament this past Sunday It was a tough competition and the Hornets competed with close to 100 other student-athletes at the tournament with several athletes earning top 10 finishes It was the first tournament of the season for the Hornets The girls varsity bowlers took on more than 40 other competitors they took the top eight bowlers into match play Shalee Van Heerde and Chloe Manifold battled in a quarterfinal matchup and Van Heerde advanced to the next round Van Heerde made it to the finals and ended up taking second place overall The Hornet boys bowlers had three earn top eight for the seeded playoffs Sophomore Alex Portteus took fourth overall The Hornet varsity bowling members play their first match of the new year on Jan Sleny Goyer and the impressive Lucas Leok topped the 85cc qualifying groups at a rough sandy Heerde track The top twelve in each group qualify – the rest will race the LCQ later on today This weekend is set to be a big one for the future generation as the Junior World Championship heads to Heerde in the Netherlands The entry lists are packed with lots of talent from all over the globe The 2024 FIM Junior Motocross World Championship will be held at the Circuit Kamperweg Heerde in The Netherlands and Jago Geerts.  It is a great stepping stone to make it into the professional world of Motocross and experience competition with a similar feel to an MXGP weekend.  You can be certain that there will be factory scouts watching the progress of the best riders as well Last year we saw the French flyer Mathis Valin crowned as Junior World Champion in the 125cc ranks and Patricks Cirulis of Latvia won the 65cc World Cup.  Dutch rider Dani Heitink and he moves up to the 125cc class for 2024.  So… What other names will be on this list at the end of the day on Sunday 14th learned the owners of Northern Paws Pet Lodge they decided they wanted to take over the business before the Heerdes bought the business Dec “It takes a lot to make it go ’round,” said Ashley The previous owners have also continued to work at the lodge and keep the same care pets and their families have come to expect She says they have run the pet lodge much the same as the previous owners and really only made one major update because it was a really old tub and stuff,” said Ashley Ashley says they currently do not offer grooming services but do give a complimentary bath to dogs who stay for six or more days at a time The business has 31 dog rooms altogether – 24 standard rooms in the East and West Pines wings and seven suites for well-behaved and house-trained dogs The suites also have TVs in the room for the pets and a raised bed though Ashley says families are always welcome to bring bedding that smells like home The building also has in-floor heat to make the space more comfortable for the pets There is also an 11-acre outdoor play area for dogs so they have some time to use the bathroom and play with a staff member for a bit Dogs are not intermingled with others from outside their household so that makes it nice,” said Ashley of the play area adding there is a smaller fenced in yard for smaller dogs Northern Paws also offers daycare for dogs to hang out for the day There are six cat condos and they also get time to explore with an indoor playroom for the felines to take turns visiting where Ashley says they try to share pictures of the pets who stay with them “We really try to treat them like our own,” said Ashley To request reservations for lodging or daycare visit northernpaws.com or call 715-289-4244 This website is using a security service to protect itself from online

election ended The Harrisburg school board is asking voters to pass a $40 million school bond next week to expand the district's high school and build a new elementary school by August 2020.  And they're doing it without a tax increase to residents but residents can vote absentee or early between now and Monday.   It's the first bond election for the district since 2014, when voters passed a $25 million bond to build Horizon Elementary school board vice chairwoman Linda Heerde said Tuesday And it comes on the coattails of voters passing the largest school bond in the state's history for the Sioux Falls School District about a month ago we're either building or preparing to build," Heerde said I almost feel like we've developed a little bit of an art or science to this because we do it so often that we've gotten kind of good at building buildings The district's population has nearly doubled in a decade making it the fastest growing district in the state More: Flexibility key for fast-growing Harrisburg district With no chance of growth slowing down Heerde said the current high school will be over capacity by fall 2020 Liberty and Endeavor Elementary schools are also expected to be beyond capacity by the same time with Freedom Elementary expected to be overflowing by 2021.  Expanding the high school by 450 additional students and adding another elementary school would alleviate the pressure school board member Jay Hutton said.  "It's kind of known we're not behind the eight-ball," Hutton said "We're really building for where we see growth in the numbers of students." The idea to expand came more than a year ago after focus group meetings and community input do we want to build on to elementary schools that are reaching their max capacity?" Heerde said "Was it OK with everybody to bump up and build on to making these elementary schools bigger or was it more important for us to keep that small town More: Harrisburg proposes building 'freshman academy,' field house to ease strain on high school That became the central debate before the board called for the bond And the focus groups easily showed the thing that makes Harrisburg unique was making sure students felt apart of the community "Making big buildings was not going to accomplish that for us," she said.  The new high school addition comes with a nearly $22 million price tag for construction, including classrooms, music rooms, an auxiliary gym, a physical education facility, a building construction shop and a possible bus barn, according to the district's website The price tag also includes the cost of the architecture landscaping and furnishing technology and equipment The additions will be about 98,500 square feet the new elementary will cost about $17 million and be located east of Bakker Crossing Golf Course That includes the same work for the addition to the high school building a playground and parking The bond also includes insurance fees and interest payment amounts totaling about $1.8 million "Everybody wants to remain one Tiger nation nation as long as we can," Heerde said.  Harrisburg School District hasn't raised taxes in 12 years because it operates under a self-imposed tax levy of $12 per $1,000 on owner-occupied properties.  With more houses and businesses being built in the area the district has seen an increase in taxable valuation That allows the district to build more schools without having to change the tax rate the district has built seven schools and several auxiliary buildings Where can you vote?The district is also changing up its voting locations this year "The thing people get confused about for voting is city of Sioux Falls residents in the Harrisburg School District do get a vote in this election,"  Heerde said and that's one thing people get confused about the most."  Any registered voter in the district's boundaries can vote by mail or during regular office hours at these nine different locations in Sioux Falls and Harrisburg between now and Monday: residents will only have two locations to cast their ballots at between 7 a.m Residents residing in the the city of Sioux Falls and Delapre township can vote at North Middle School next Tuesday Lynn and Perry townships can vote at the community room in Liberty Elementary School For more information, visit the Harrisburg School District website.  Initiatives to protect homeless young people during the pandemic were effective but we need a long term strategy that delivers better support and helps prevent homelessness By Dr Jess Heerde, Professor George Patton, Associate Professor Rohan Borschmann, Professor Stuart Kinner and Dr Jesse Young In 2008 Australia had a national strategic agenda to halve homelessness by 2020 with a strategy of early intervention and improved service provision to finally break the homelessness cycle This strategic agenda has long since been discarded Instead we have been left with rising demand for homelessness services and a national homelessness support system struggling to keep up with this demand The raw daily experience of what it’s like to be homeless and the damage it does to young people’s health wellbeing and life chances are largely hidden from view We can just walk past the problem on our streets without seeing it and without understanding it But homelessness and the threat of homelessness puts relentless pressure on young people and their families The young have had the greatest recent increases in homelessness. Rates among those aged 25-34 years have steadily increased over the past three Censuses to 18,411 in 2011 and 24,224 in 2016 –a 32 per cent increase between 2011 and 2016 According to the 2019-20 Australian Institute of Health and Welfare specialist homelessness services annual report 290,500 Australians accessed homelessness services over this period and of these 40 per cent were aged under 25 years COVID-19 has reminded us that it doesn’t need to be this way The pandemic has highlighted the extreme vulnerabilities of the homeless, especially the young homeless. It triggered unprecedented intervention by Australian governments through health which successfully reduced the incidence of the virus among the homeless The success of these COVID-19-driven housing and social strategies in protecting young Australians from homelessness could and should be the catalyst for strategic and enduring solutions real and enduring reform has not yet occurred Investing in social housing during a pandemic We are facing the risk of a new wave of youth homelessness Lockdowns and associated economic downturns have brought an increased demand for homelessness services, demand that is not likely to subside any time soon. The temporary supports put in place at the height of the pandemic are receding, funding for emergency and temporary accommodation is being wound back This is compounded by high rates of youth unemployment These factors now threaten to fuel a new and larger wave of homelessness in the young it doesn’t provide funding to increase capacity for services to respond to the growing homelessness crisis This is also missed in the Oppositions’s pledge of 20,000 social housing properties government policy has relied on intervening only when young people are at serious risk of falling into homelessness or are already homeless The danger is that we will keep relying on short-term crisis-driven approaches such as those precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic Ultimately, these approaches do little to address the underlying drivers of homelessness among the young. Nor do they address the adverse health and social consequences of homelessness Population-wide and targeted prevention strategies are rarely discussed or funded. We need to be focusing on the needs of young people prior to their becoming at risk of homelessness. It is possible to identify the drivers of homelessness from early in adolescence and the interrelationships among them that operate at individual Targeting these drivers should be central in driving policy reform to reduce homelessness and support young Australians to make a successful transition into stable housing In addition to targeting the drivers of homelessness, it is also necessary to focus on the health needs of the young homeless we must track the health needs and outcomes of these young people at a national level to drive whole of-government policy reform Victorian kids’ mental health hit hardest during 2020 and make a strong case for the minimisation of co-payments required for health services Although feasible currently this absence of knowledge is a public health opportunity missed To reduce the number of homeless young Australians our approach needs to improve crisis-driven approaches will not prevent a new wave of homelessness or better respond to the health needs of homeless young people It is time for an inter-sectoral alliance of researchers and young people with lived experience of homelessness to come together and be included in planning processes

Business School academic has been ranked 7th in the world for his contribution to the field of marketing having been in the top 10 for a while now – I’m very happy to be representing this part of the world and UNSW at that level,” Professor Harald Van Heerde said The Marketing Research Productivity Lists are based on the number of articles written in the top four journals over the past 10 years UNSW Sydney is the only Australian university to feature an academic in the top 20 positions of the list which ranks Author Productivity in the Premier Marketing Journals (2009-2018) “Most people in the rankings are US based academics or have been trained in the US I’ve worked in New Zealand and Australia having gained my PhD in the Netherlands so it’s special to be a bit of an outlier in that field of mostly American colleagues,” Van Heerde said Professor Van Heerde earned his PhD at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands and has attracted significant research grants for projects in the Netherlands He also serves as the only non-US based Co-editor of the Journal of Marketing Traditionally it’s been about consumers and firms but it’s now beginning to open up the scope so it’s now becoming more about social marketing using marketing to create a better world,” Prof Van Heerde said “A lot of marketing articles are about privacy concerns technological driven products such as mobile marketing Uber) – these are very interesting times to be a marketeer.” Professor Van Heerde was appointed by the Business School under the SHARP program or Strategic Hires and Retention Pathways recruitment - a UNSW 2025 program to attract the world's best scholars to UNSW Sydney to position it as 'Australia's Global University' Dean UNSW Business School said: “He is an outstanding addition to our group of globally recognised marketing scholars." The 2024 FIM Junior Motocross World Champions and World Cup Winner have been crowned today at the conclusion of racing on the Circuit Kamperweg Heerde in the heart of the Netherlands Champions came from as far afield as Hungary and New Zealand but the home crowd also had one of their own claim a winner’s trophy on the podium Noel Zanocz continued his fantastic year with the World Junior 125cc title in his pocket after a stunning display of riding in the sand The Hungarian also leads the EMX125 Championship at the time of writing New Zealander Levi Townley justified the long journey with a stunning overall win to add another FIM Gold Medal to the family collection as father Ben watched on proudly the home crowd cheered the success of young charger Kash van Hamond who used his skills in the sand to claim the 65cc World Cup It was also joy for the local supporters in the Nations standings as Team Netherlands claimed the overall team victory ahead of Team France in second and Team Great Britain in third with the top 10 of this year’s EMX125 Championship present alongside top racers from all the other continents but it was Sweden’s Sandor Sols who claimed the first race holeshot ahead of local ace Dean Gregoire it was Simone Mancini who dispelled the rumours that young Italians can’t ride sand by taking the lead on the opening lap son of 1990s star Marcel and no relation to WMX star Lotte but Zanocz was on a mission and charged through to take second by the end of lap three he set the fastest time of the whole race on lap four and dived past Mancini for the lead on lap six Sols dropped back with a bike issue to finish 14th but Spaniard Francisco Garcia put in a solid ride to take third on lap six then chased down Mancini with a pass on the very last lap of the race with current EMX125 Championship challenger Doensen ending his topsy-turvy race in fifth Zanocz cruised to a 14-second victory to leave everyone else scratching their heads That super Swede Sols grabbed the holeshot again in race two Mancini grabbed the lead on lap two this time but Zanocz was outside the top 15 and giving his opponents some hope Gregoire and Van Drunen were again giving their home fans something to cheer for but it was Doensen who climbed to 2nd at the end of lap five it was that Hungarian menace Zanocz who had powered up to second place past his series rival With Doensen staying solid in third ahead of Garcia who also fought through from behind at the start it meant that Zanocz was in the driving seat for the overall but he still put everything into catching his teammate with a small mistake just interrupting his rhythm enough to give it to the Italian Local ace Dani Heitink claimed fifth ahead of Hindersson but it was Zanocz who claimed the World Junior Championship with his 1-2 scoreline ahead of Mancini’s 3-1 Garcia completed the podium ahead of Doensen and Hindersson with Brit Jamie Keith taking a good sixth overall with consistent 6-8 finishes The 85cc class had taken the 40 starters from 108 entrants on Saturday so it was always going to be a full and frantic circuit for the buzzing machines Austrian Moritz Ernecker took the holeshot and held the early lead from Levi Townley and French flyer Sleny Goyer before Finland’s Viktor Leppälä moved into contention remounting in 16th and recovering to finish an eventual 8th This gave the elder of the two Townley brothers as Goyer moved up to claim second with three laps to go leaving Leppälä to hold off a charge from Estonian Lucas Leok The USA’s Wyatt Duff claimed fifth ahead of another Estonian who put a last lap pass on France’s Kenzo Ferez and he simply would not be caught as he made an early gap and claimed a solid 12-second victory by the flag The battle raged behind him as the Dane Casey Karstrom put his Yamaha into second initially before local ace Dex van den Broek completed his charge from outside the top five to claim second in the race but Levi Townley battled past Brit Finley Pickering enough to keep Leok back in the points and claim the first ever World Junior Championship for New Zealand Van den Broek claimed third overall ahead of Goyer and Leppälä with American Braxtyn Mes taking sixth overall by virtue of a stunning charge right from the back in race two who has also been racing in the AMA recently who claimed the first race holeshot in the 65cc class and was never overtaken to win by nearly ten seconds Van Hamond fought from outside the top five to claim second in the race ahead of Estonian Theo Kolts and a stunning charge from Great Britain’s Cohen Jagielski Belgium’s Xen Temmerman took fifth ahead of fast-starting Frenchman Timoteï Cez Verhoeven again took the holeshot in race two but Van Hamond had charged from outside the top ten to claim second by lap three then dived past the New Zealander to take the lead Despite his efforts to fight for the World Cup overall victory Nico lost positions to Germany’s Luca Nierychlo enough only for second overall behind popular local ace Van Hamond Verhoeven’s AMA rival Jaydin Smart came through from an awful start to claim fifth with his countryman Joseph Vicari claiming sixth in race two it was Van Hamond who claimed the first 65cc title for a Dutch rider since Ivano van Erp in 2017 with Jagielski recovering from a second race crash to finish 12th with two overall podium finishers and a fourth place were easily the overall winners in the team Championship and France just edged out Team Great Britain for second overall with Estonia fourth and a fighting USA in fifth
