Occupied:
Height is measured from the level of the lowest, significant, open-air, pedestrian entrance to the highest occupied floor within the building.
The number of floors below ground should include all major floors located below the ground floor level.

Structural Material
Both the main vertical/lateral structural elements and the floor spanning systems are constructed from steel. Note that a building of steel construction with a floor system of concrete planks or concrete slab on top of steel beams is still considered a "steel" structure as the concrete elements are not acting as the primary structure.
Both the main vertical/lateral structural elements and the floor spanning systems are constructed from concrete which has been cast in place and utilizes steel reinforcement bars.
Both the main vertical/lateral structural elements and the floor spanning system are constructed from steel reinforced concrete which has been precast as individual components and assembled together on-site.
Mixed-Structure
Utilizes distinct systems (e.g. steel, concrete, timber), one on top of the other. For example, a steel/concrete indicates a steel structural system located on top of a concrete structural system, with the opposite true of concrete/steel.
A combination of materials (e.g. steel, concrete, timber) are used together in the main structural elements. Examples include buildings which utilize: steel columns with a floor system of reinforced concrete beams; a steel frame system with a concrete core; concrete-encased steel columns; concrete-filled steel tubes; etc. Where known, the CTBUH database breaks out the materials used in a composite building's core, columns, and floor spanning separately.

Three Chinese hydel projects get ECC approval after a one year wait
Khaleeq Kiani
ISLAMABAD: In fast moving developments, the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) of the Cabinet on Thursday approved important revisions to the terms on which three hydropower projects, worth more than $5 billion in total, are being executed by Chinese companies.
The meeting, presided over by Adviser to PM on Finance and Revenue Dr Abdul Hafeez Shaikh also reduced regulatory duties on six categories of smuggling-prone items and approved technical supplementary grants to various agencies and ministries.
The ECC on April 8 agreed to the demand from the Chinese firms for up to seven per cent foreign exchange loss after resisting it for almost a year.
The Cabinet Committee on Energy, led by Planning Minister Asad Umar approved on June 20 the signing of implementation agreements on two of these three projects — Kohala and Azad Pattan — with an estimated cost of $3.758bn.
Within days, yet another summary was moved by the Power Division titled "Revised Standard Security Package Documents" for these three projects — 1,124MW Kohala Hydropower Project, 700MW Azad Pattan Hydropower Project and 640MW Mahl Hydropower project — all based on Jhelum river, Azad Kashmir. The cumulative generation capacity of three projects is estimated at 2,464MW.
In the case of the Kohala project, the documents were signed in PM's presence shortly after the ECC approval on Thursday.
All three projects are being developed on built, own, operate and transfer basis by the Private Power & Infrastructure Board (PPIB). The 1,124MW Kohala and 700MW Azad Pattan projects are included in and processed under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor Energy Project Cooperation agreement signed on Nov 8, 2014 by the two countries.
The Kohala project is to be located on River Jhelum in Azad Jammu & Kashmir being developed by the Kohala Hydropower Company Private Limited with China Three Gorges Corporation (CTG), International Finance Corporation of the World Bank and Silk Road Fund. The project's average 30-year tariff is estimated at 7.85 cents per unit with total project cost of $2.4bn.
Likewise, the Azad Pattan project is also to be located on Jhelum river on the dual boundary of AJK and Punjab being developed by Azad Pattan Power Pvt Limited with China Gezhouba Group Company Limited as sponsor. The 30-year tariff for this project is estimated at 7.07 cents per unit, with project cost of $1.35bn.
The third project — Mahl Hydropower – is also to be located on river Jhelum on combined boundary of AJK, Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The project is being developed by Mahl Power Company Ltd with CTG and Trans Tech Pakistan.
These projects are now also covered under the 2002 Power Policy incentives, concessions and protections for which revised standard security package documents are being signed. These documents include Pakistan government's implementation agreements, GOP guarantees, power purchase agreements, water use agreement which are signed by government of AJK/Punjab/KP, National Transmission & Despatch Company, Central Power Purchasing Agency, PPIB etc.

Historically, surgery has been the primary mode of treatment for early breast cancer. The diagnostic, surgical and medical management of breast cancer, however, has escalated in complexity because of numerous advances in novel technologies and available adjunctive therapies. Hence, the multifaceted treatment of breast cancer now requires the input of an interdisciplinary group of expert care providers. This paradigm shift has created the challenge of ensuring that knowledge of major clinical advances in local and systemic breast cancer therapy is effectively disseminated among all members of the cross-functional team. To bridge the gap between research and patient care, Breast Cancer Update for Surgeons uses one-on-one interviews with leading breast cancer investigators to efficiently distill the latest research developments so that they may be incorporated into clinical practice as appropriate. By providing access to cutting-edge data and expert perspectives, this CME program assists breast surgeons in the formulation of up-to-date clinical management strategies.
Appreciate the similarities and differences among existing genomic assays, and use this information to select appropriate platform(s) to assess risk and individualize therapy for patients with early breast cancer.

Final: Michigan 77, Rutgers 65.
The RAC was primed for an upset but Michigan wasn't having it, despite a game effort by the Scarlet Knights.
NEW: Rutgers has sold out the RAC three times, and couldn't cash in on any of them.
Young team with the same optimism as early in Mike Rice's tenure, but at some point, you have to get over the hump.

The tournament in Portugal is entering its final stages and some mild shocks have already taken place.
In the women's tournament the draw for the semi-finals is already set: No.7 seed Svetlana Kuznetsova will play World No.33 Elena Vesnina while Romanian Irina-Camelia Begu will face top seed Carla Suarez Navarro.
Suarez Navarro reached the last four sweeping past Polona Hercog 6-1 6-3 in just 1h11m: so far she has lost just seven games in three matches and recorded a 6-0 6-0 win over Zahlavova Strycova in the second round.
Her semi-final opponent, World No.117 Begu, reached the penultimate round battling past Swiss player Timea Bacsinszky 6-3 7-6(6) in a match that featured 8 breaks. The Romanian had beaten No.5 seed Kaia Kanepi to reach the quarterfinals.
In the bottom half of the draw, Kuznetsova defeated World No.18 Eugenie Bouchard 6-4 6-1 with a great display of tennis: she was trailing 4-1 in the first set before winning 11 of the next 12 games to book a spot in the semi-finals in just over 1 hour and fifteen minutes.
In the only three-set match of the day, Elena Vesnina came back from 5-2 down in the third to beat Roberta Vinci 7-6(5) 4-6 7-5 in a thrilling match. After losing the first set in a tiebreak where 9 points out of twelve were won against serve, Vinci got the only break of the second set to take the match to a decider. The Italian seemed to have the match won when she was serving on 5-2 but Vesnina took the next 5 games to win the match and reach the semi-finals.
In the men's tournament there were a couple of upsets in the earlier rounds: Rui Machado, spurred on by his home crowd, serve a double bagel to No.5 seed Dmitry Tursunov in the first round, while Albert Montanes saw his hopes of becoming the first player to win this tournament three times shattered by Marcel Granollers in the second round.
Tomorrow's quarterfinals will see top seed Tomas Berdych, who beat Devvarman in straight sets, face qualifier Leonardo Mayer and Victor Hanescu take on Portuguese wildcard Gastao Elias, who beat Garcia Lopez in three sets.
In the bottom half, a Spanish derby will see Marcel Granollers play Daniel Gimeno-Traver while 2nd seed Milos Raonic will meet Argentine Carlos Berlocq.

The PF Power Meter utilizes a 16 bit 61.44MHz DSP digital signal converter as it"s main processor to produce timely and accurate results. Complemented with 3-phase electrical power A/D switching chip, it is able to sample 6 sets of signals simultaneously (3-phase voltage and 3-phase current) to produce accurate monitoring. Apart from the industry"s standard of using switching mode single module A/D converter which produces a time lag in-between sampling, the PF provides digital analysis, display, regulation, output and other functions.
Programmable adjustment for current and voltage transformers ratio, CT/ PT ratio 1~1000.

I was so excited to continue this series. There was so much that happened in book one which I needed answers for. It wasn't just about finding the murderer of Saul, but hiding Britta's channeler's ability and saving the Kingdom of Malam. This world has so much going on and I was hooked. In this book, there are more pressing matters. Since Britta saved King Aodren, they had become linked and the pull that she felt towards Cohen is now directed at Aodren, and he feels the same. Lord Jamis and Phelia escaped and in order to save all of Malam they need caught.There is a lot of emotional and physical demands in this book, which work perfectly together. I really enjoyed this book because we were able to see more of the troubles in Malam. Like the previous books, there are other issues besides the main plot. In some points I have found this approach to not be successful but Summerill makes it fit together perfectly. The subplots are not overwhelming nor do they take away from the main plot in the story. Her writing has them enhance the storyline tremendously.
Again, I love the characters. I am in love with Britta and Cohen. Seeds, are they perfect for each other. Especially when Cohen calls Britta 'Dove' - ugh my heart. Their dynamic is everything. I was really happy that we were able to get Cohen's point of view in this book, and it was definitely necessary. Along with a new point of view from Cohen, we also get Aodren. I am glad that she didn't focus on Aodren perspective but it was nice to read from his point of view as well. Since Britta and Aodren were connected through Britta's channeler magic - there is an attraction between them. This is where the book kind of lost me. I understood the connection between Britta and Aodren but I felt like the introduction of a love triangle wasn't necessary. I'm not a big fan of triangles to begin with, especially when one of the couples have such a strong connection. This tension didn't compliment the book and the structure that Summerill had created. If this was never introduced I would have probably enjoyed the book more. While I appreciated the presence of Aodren and his character, I was not a fan of the love triangle.
Overall, Ever the Brave by Erin Summerill was a great second book. Her writing style really created a great plot and amazing details. The problems presented are not linear and give the story a necessary depth. I absolutely love Britta and Cohen, along with the new characters that were introduced with this book. While I wasn't a fan of the love triangle presented, this book was still very enjoyable. I recommend this book for those who enjoyed Ever the Hunted and a great fantasy storyline. | {

Regional-scale conservation planning considering ecosystems as a whole is important in allowing us to capture emergent system properties, such as complementarity, connectivity, and large-scale ecological processes and threats. Consequently, there has been an increase in the number of regional-scale prioritisation assessments in the conservation planning literature. However, conservation planning cannot stop at regional scales. Planning at such broad extents results in a planning-implementation gap, where there is a mismatch in the scale of planning (regional) and that of implementation (local), impeding the transition from conservation designs to actions. Regional-scale plans are less relevant to actual actions on the ground and should therefore be a starting guide to subsequent finer-scale plans.
We now also understand the importance of integrating accurate and representative socioeconomic costs into conservation prioritisations. Doing so increases cost effectiveness and stakeholder buy-in, both of which are necessary for successful implementation and continuation of conservation plans. However, detailed and representative cost data rarely (if ever) exists across entire regions. My recent investigation into these issues, using Fiji and Micronesia as case studies, has revealed that the socioeconomic cost data used in prioritisations has a strong influence on the location of determined priorities. I have found that carrying out coarse-resolution prioritisations with spatially variable cost data, can reduce the likelihood of selected priority areas to incidentally represent finer-scale conservation objectives, derived from higher-resolution habitat data. Leading to a useful recommendation for future regional prioritisations: if good quality, high-resolution data is unavailable when using habitat data as a surrogate for biodiversity, it is better to prioritise the whole region with spatially uniform costs to increase the likelihood of representing finer-resolution conservation objectives.

As kids, some of us were dragged kicking and screaming to the dentist. The familiar scents and sounds associated with our childhood dental clinic is etched into our minds until this very day.
The sound of a dental drill is enough to make our skin crawl. This phobia can grow along with us until we reach adulthood, and is present in both men and women.
A survey was actually conducted by the Adult Dental Health Survey in Britain concerning this issue. It revolved around women who were shown photos of different dental procedures.
Those who already suffered from this phobia were six times more likely to find the photos repulsive compared with women who had no fear whatsoever concerning dentistry in general.
The findings of this study also revealed that women were more vocal about their phobia and revulsion compared to men who suffer from the exact same issue.
Fear of going to the dentist was also found in almost half of the adults. Their phobia ranged from moderate to severe. Research also revealed that women who were in their forties are the supreme group when it comes to being afraid of the dentist.
The study conducted by The University of Sydney revealed that this particular age group was most likely to have witnessed a traumatic dental experience. They were also more susceptible to depression, stress and general anxiety.
The mere idea of visiting the dentist is scary enough to make you freeze and refuse to book a dentist appointment, even if your teeth were in unimaginable pain.
Being scared is understandable, but it also should not get in the way of you receiving proper dental care. Know that you are not alone, and that according to experts, dental phobia affects thirteen to twenty-four percent of people around the world.
Preserving your smile can only be done by paying your dentist a visit. The first thing you can do is to spill the beans on what scares you the most.
Let your dentist know how he or she can help reduce that fear over time. Luckily, we live in an age where dentistry is equipped with the latest modern technologies that cater to the comfort of patients, young and old.
Sedation dentistry is also offered to people with severe phobia. IV sedation, oral sedation as well as nitrous oxide are three safe sedatives that can be given to patients depending on their anxiety levels.
The type of procedure also plays a part in choosing any of the above sedatives.
Dental offices nowadays employ relaxation techniques starting from the music playing from their speakers to the ambiance and lighting. Some dentists even go out of their way to create an ideal environment for people with dental phobia.
They gently explain what the patient is going to experience and regularly ask him or her for permission to continue. These tiny details make a world of difference to these fearful patients. A good patient-dentist relationship is also crucial for managing this anxiety.
In conclusion, maintaining a positive outlook and laughing in the face of your fear will also help you cope better in time. | {

\section{Introduction}
The Yamabe problem, asked in its original form, for which compact Riemannian manifolds $(\mathcal M,g)$ does there exist a metric conformal to $g$ with constant scalar curvature \cite{trudinger1968remarks,yamabe1960deformation}. Since the problem was first posed, it has branched out into several related problems; prescribed scalar curvature \cite{kazdanwarner}, the case where $\mathcal M$ has a boundary \cite{escobar1992yamabe}, or is non-compact \cite{CantorBrill1981}, non-compact with boundary \cite{schwartz2006zero}, constant mean curvature boundary \cite{escobar1992conformal}, prescription of boundary mean curvature \cite{EscobarprescribedH}, and others (see \cite{brendle2010recent,yamabe} and references therein).
The non-compact case seems to have only recently been receiving an amount of attention due to its relation to the Einstein constraint equations in general relativity. The Yamabe problem on non-compact manifolds is intimately connected to the conformal method of solving the constraint equations (see, for example, \cite{BaIsConstraints2004,maxwell2005solutions}); in the time-symmetric case, the constraint equations simply reduce to the prescribed scalar curvature equation. Indeed, we are also motivated to study the Yamabe problem on an asymptotically flat manifold with boundary due to this connection to the constraint equations; however, rather than seeking to parametrise the space of solutions, we are motivated by the problem of quasilocal mass (see \cite{QLMreview} for an in-depth review of the problem). Bartnik's quasilocal mass gives the mass of a bounded region as the infimum of the ADM mass, over a space of admissible asymptotically flat extensions to the given region \cite{qlm}. It is expected that this infimum will be achieved by a static metric that is continuous across the boundary and induces the same mean curvature of the boundary, although it is not expected that this solution will be differentiable across the boundary. For this reason, one is interested in finding scalar-flat asymptotically flat solutions with boundary, such that the metric and mean curvature are both fixed on the boundary. In the literature, this boundary data is often called Bartnik data, or Bartnik's geometric boundary data.
Unfortunately, the Yamabe problem with both of these boundary conditions imposed is overdetermined, so we cannot expect to use this method to find vacuum solutions with prescribed Bartnik boundary data. However, it does motivate the following two results. We demonstrate the existence of scalar-flat metrics in a fixed conformal class satisfying either of these boundary conditions separately, but not both simultaneously. In the following two Propositions, we assume $(\mathcal M,g)$ is an asymptotically flat manifold with boundary and positive Sobolev quotient.
\begin{prop*}[See Corollary \ref{cor1} for formal statement]
There exists an asymptotically flat scalar-flat metric on $\mathcal M$, conformal to $g$ and agreeing with $g$ on $\partial \mathcal M$.
\end{prop*}
\begin{prop*}[See Corollary \ref{cor2} for formal statement]
There is a positive function $\rho$ on $\partial \mathcal M$, such that for any function $f<\rho$ on $\partial \mathcal M$, there exists an asymptotically flat scalar-flat metric on $\mathcal M$, conformal to $g$, such that $f$ is the mean curvature of the boundary with respect to the outer unit normal.
\end{prop*}
We prove the first of these results following an argument of Cantor and Brill \cite{CantorBrill1981}, where they prove the analogous result in the compact case. The second of these results uses the method of sub- and supersolutions, and relies heavily on excellent previous work of Maxwell where asymptotically flat solutions to the Einstein constraint equations with apparent horizon boundary conditions are constructed \cite{maxwell2005solutions}. This second result is also related to previous work by Schwartz \cite{schwartz2006zero}, which considered the scalar-flat Yamabe problem outside of a ball, however no assumptions about asymptotic flatness are made in this case considered by Schwartz.
\section{The setup}
Throughout, we use the framework of weighted Sobolev spaces to control the asymptotics. In this Section we recall some properties of the Laplace-Beltrami operator between these weighted spaces on an asymptotically flat manifold with boundary. Let $\mathcal M$ be a smooth manifold with boundary such that $\mathcal{M}$ minus a compact set $K$ containing the boundary ${\partial\mathcal M}$, is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^n$ minus a closed ball. Denote this diffeomorphism by $\phi:\mathcal M\setminus K\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^n\setminus \overline{B_1(0)}$. On $\mathcal{M}$, we fix some smooth background metric $\mathring g$ that agrees with $\phi^*(\delta)$, the pullback of the Euclidean metric, on $\mathcal M\setminus K$. We also fix a smooth function $r(x)$ on $\mathcal M$ such that $r(x)\geq1$ and $r(x)=|\phi(x)|$ on $\mathcal M\setminus K$. We now recall the weighted Lebesgue and Sobolev norms:
\begin{align}
\left\|u\right\|_{p,\delta}&=
\left\{
\begin{array}{ll}
\left(\int_{\mathcal M}\left| u\right|^p r^{-\delta p-n}d\mu_0\right)^{1/p},& p<\infty,\\
\text{ess sup}(r^{-\delta}|u|), & p=\infty,
\end{array}\label{weighted1}
\right.
\\
\left\|u\right\|_{k,p,\delta}&=\sum_{j=0}^k\|\mathring\nabla^j u\|_{p,\delta-j},\label{weighted2}
\end{align}
where $\circ$ refers to quantities defined by $\mathring g$. The spaces $L^p_\delta(\mathcal M)$ and $W^{k,p}_\delta(\mathcal M)$ are defined as the completion of the smooth functions with bounded support on $\mathcal M$ with respect to these norms, respectively. We follow the convention of \cite{AF}, where $\delta$ explicitly indicates the asymptotics; that is, if $u\in W^{k,p}_{\delta}$ then $u=o(r^\delta)$. Denote by $\overline{W}^{k,p}_\delta(\mathcal M)$, the completion of the compactly supported functions on $\mathcal M\setminus{\partial\mathcal M}$ with respect to the $W^{k,p}_\delta$ norm. That is, $\overline{W}^{k,p}_\delta(\mathcal M)$ is a space of functions that vanish on the the boundary in the trace sense, along with their first $k-1$ derivatives. We will generally omit reference to $\mathcal{M}$, and simply write $W^{k,p}_\delta$ for the sake of presentation. We say that $(\mathcal M,g)$ is an asymptotically flat manifold if $(g-\mathring g)\in W^{k,2}_{5/2-n}$ with $k>n/2$, which ensures $g$ is H\"older continuous via the Sobolev-Morrey embedding. It is well-known that the usual Sobolev-type inequalities have weighted analogues, which we use throughout -- the reader is referred to Theorem 1.2 of \cite{AF} for an explicit statement of many of these inequalities.
It is also well-known that the Laplace-Beltrami operator is an isomorphism between these weighted spaces in the case where $\mathcal M$ has no boundary. This is also true in the case considered here, when Dirichlet boundary conditions are imposed. In particular, we make use of the following results (cf. \cite{McCormickExtensionsManifold}).
\begin{lemma}\label{lemineq}
Let $M$ be an asymptotically flat manifold with a compact interior boundary. For any $\delta\in(2-n,0)$ and $u\in W^{2,2}_\delta\cap\overline{W}^{1,2}_\delta$, we have
\begin{equation}
\|u\|_{2,2,\delta}\leq C\|\Delta_g u\|_{2,\delta-2}.\label{coercivelaplace}
\end{equation}
Furthermore, for any $\delta\in\mathbb{R}$ and $u\in W^{2,2}_\delta$, we have
\begin{equation}\label{nonfredholm}
\|u\|_{2,2,\delta}\leq C\left(\|\Delta_g u\|_{2,\delta-2}+\|u\|_{2,\delta}\right).
\end{equation}
\end{lemma}
\begin{prop}\label{propisolaplace}
For any $\delta\in(2-n,0)$, $\Delta_{g}:\overline{W}^{1,2}_\delta \cap W^{2,2}_\delta \rightarrow L^2_{\delta-2}$ is an isomorphism.
\end{prop}
We now use Lemma \ref{lemineq} to establish the following straightforward corollary.
\begin{corollary}\label{corfR}
Assume $\delta\in (2-n,0)$ and $f\in L^n_{-2-\epsilon}$, with $\epsilon>0$, then the operator ${L=\Delta_g+f:\overline{W}^{1,2}_\delta \cap W^{2,2}_\delta \rightarrow L^2_{\delta-2}}$ has finite dimensional kernel and closed range.
\end{corollary}
\begin{proof}
Making use of (\ref{coercivelaplace}), and the weighted H\"older, Sobolev and interpolation inequalities, we have
\begin{align}
\|u\|_{2,2,\delta}&\leq C\|Lu\|_{2,\delta-2}+\|fu\|_{2,\delta-2}\nonumber\\
&\leq C(\|Lu\|_{2,\delta-2}+\|f\|_{n,-2-\epsilon}\|u\|_{2n/(n-2),\delta+\epsilon})\nonumber\\
&\leq C(\|Lu\|_{2,\delta-2}+\|u\|_{1,2,\delta+\epsilon})\nonumber\\
&\leq C(\|Lu\|_{2,\delta-2}+\|u\|_{2,\delta+\epsilon})+\frac12\|u\|_{2,2,\delta+\epsilon}\nonumber\\
&\leq C(\|Lu\|_{2,\delta-2}+\|u\|_{2,\delta+\epsilon}).\label{LRscalebroken}
\end{align}
It then follows by a standard argument (see, for example, the proof of Theorem 1.10 in \cite{AF}) that $L$ has finite dimensional kernel and closed range. Let $u_i$ be a sequence in $\ker(L)$ satisfying $\|u\|_{2,2,\delta}\leq1$; that is, a sequence in the closed unit ball in $\ker(L)$. By the weighted Rellich compactness theorem, and passing to a subsequence, we have $u_i\rightarrow u$ in $L^2_{\delta+\epsilon}$. Then by the estimate above, we conclude $u_i$ also converges in $W^{2,2}_\delta$, and it follows that $\ker(L)$ is finite dimensional. It follows that the domain splits as $\overline{W}^{1,2}_\delta \cap W^{2,2}_\delta=\ker(L)\oplus K$, where $K$ is some closed complementary subspace. To prove that $\ran(L)$ is closed, we require the following estimate for all $u\in K$,
\begin{equation}\label{Kestimate}
\|u\|_{2,2,\delta}\leq C\|Lu\|_{2,\delta-2},
\end{equation}
which we prove by contradiction. If (\ref{Kestimate}) were not true, there must exist a sequence $u_i$ satisfying $\|u_i\|_{2,2,\delta}=1$ while $\|Lu_i\|_{2,\delta-2}\rightarrow0$. But again, (\ref{LRscalebroken}) and the weighted Rellich compactness theorem imply $u_i\rightarrow u$ in $W^{2,2}_\delta$, passing to a subsequence if necessary. Since $K$ is closed, we have $u\in K$, and therefore $u$ is a nonzero element of both $K$ and $\ker(L)$, which is a contradiction. It follows that (\ref{Kestimate}) holds, and therefore for any Cauchy sequence in the range $v_i=Lu_i$, $u_i$ is also Cauchy and therefore converges in $W^{2,2}_\delta$. By continuity, $v_i$ converges and therefore $\ran(L)$ is closed.
\end{proof}
Note that the regularity of $f$ is almost certainly not optimal, however it suffices for our purposes here.
\section{Dirichlet boundary conditions}\label{Syamabe}
We are now ready to discuss the asymptotically flat scalar-flat Yamabe problem, with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the metric. Given some fixed metric $g$, consider conformally related metrics of the form $\tilde{g}=\phi^{4/(n-2)}g$. The problem of prescribing scalar curvature $\tilde{R}:=R(\tilde g)=f$ is equivalent to solving
\begin{equation}\label{yamabe}
\left\{\begin{matrix}
\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}\Delta_g\phi-R\phi+\phi^{(n+2)/(n-2)}f=0\\
\phi>0
\end{matrix}\right. .
\end{equation}
The Yamabe problem is historically concerned with the case where $f$ is constant, and the case of particular interest here is the case where $\tilde R=f\equiv0$. Recall, asymptotically flat scalar-flat 3-manifolds correspond to initial data for the vacuum Einstein equations. Note that this case is significantly simpler than the general case as it removes the problem of the critical Sobolev exponent. The system under consideration in this Section is
\begin{equation}\label{yamabe2}
\left\{\begin{matrix}
\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}\Delta_g\phi-R\phi=0&\text{ on }\mathcal M\\
\phi>0&\\
\phi-1=o(r^{5/2-n})&\\
\phi\equiv1&\text{ on } \partial\mathcal M
\end{matrix}\right.
\end{equation}
where $g$ is assumed to be asymptotically flat. The argument we use here follows that of Cantor and Brill \cite{CantorBrill1981} in the case where no boundary is present. It has been noted by Maxwell \cite{maxwell2005solutions} that the Cantor-Brill proof has a minor error, so we are careful avoid this error here.
Recall now, the Sobolev quotient, given by
\begin{equation}
Q(\mathcal M,g)=\inf_{f\in C^\infty_c}\frac{\int_{\mathcal M} |\nabla f|^2+\frac{n-2}{4(n-1)}Rf^2 d\mu}{\|f\|^2_{L^{2n/(n-2)}}},
\end{equation}
which is conformally invariant, and intimately connected with the solvability of the Yamabe problem.
\begin{lemma}
Let $(\mathcal M,g)$ be an asymptotically flat manifold with $Q(\mathcal M,g)>0$. For each $\lambda\in[0,1]$, the operator $A_\lambda=\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}\Delta_g-\lambda R$ is injective on $u\in H^2_{1-\frac n2}\cap \overline{H}^1_{1-\frac n2}$.
\end{lemma}
\begin{proof}
Suppose $u\in H^2_{1-\frac n2}\cap \overline{H}^1_{1-\frac n2}$ satisfies $A_\lambda u=0$, and let $u_m\in C^\infty_c$ be a sequence converging to $u$ in $\overline{H}^1_{1-\frac n2}$. We have
$$\int_{\mathcal M} (\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}u_m\Delta_g u-\lambda R u_m u) d\mu=0.$$
Integrating by parts,
$$-\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}\int_{\mathcal M} \nabla_i u_m\nabla^i u\, d\mu=\lambda\int_{\mathcal M}Ru_m u\, d\mu.$$
From the weighted H\"older and Sobolev inequalities, we have
\[|\int_{\mathcal M} \nabla_i v\nabla^i u\, d\mu|\leq C\|v\|_{1,2,1-n/2}\|u\|_{1,2,1-n/2}\]
and
\begin{align*}
|\int_{\mathcal M}Rv u\, d\mu&|\leq C\|R\|_{n/2,-2}\|v\|_{2n/(n-2),1-n/2}\|u\|_{2n/(n-2),1-n/2}\\
&\leq C\|R\|_{n/2,-2}\|v\|_{1,2,1-n/2}\|u\|_{1,2,1-n/2},
\end{align*}
noting that $\|R\|_{n/2,-2}$ is finite by assumption of asymptotic flatness. It follows that the maps, $v\mapsto\int_\mathcal{M}\nabla_i(v)\nabla^i(u)\, d\mu$ and $v\mapsto\int_\mathcal{M} Ruv\,d\mu$ are continuous. Passing to the limit we conclude
$$-\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}\int_{\mathcal M} |\nabla u|^2\, d\mu=\lambda\int_{\mathcal M}Ru^2\, d\mu.$$
We have already that $A_0$ is an isomorphism, so we may assume $\lambda\in(0,1]$. If $u\neq0$, we have
$$\frac{4(n-1)}{\lambda(n-2)}\int_{\mathcal M} |\nabla u|^2\, d\mu=-\int_{\mathcal M}Ru^2\, d\mu<\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}\int_{\mathcal M} |\nabla u|^2\, d\mu$$
from the assumption that $Q(\mathcal M,g)>0$. This cannot hold for $\lambda \leq1$ so we therefore conclude $u\equiv0$ and therefore $A_\lambda$ is an injection.
\end{proof}
We next make use of the following well-known lemma (cf. \cite{cantor2,CantorBrill1981}).
\begin{lemma}\label{leminjfam}
Let $E,F$ be Banach spaces and suppose for $\lambda\in[0,1]$, $L_\lambda:E\rightarrow F$ is a continuous family of bounded linear operators. If $L_0$ is an isomorphism and each $L_\lambda$ is an injection with closed range, then each $L_\lambda$ is in fact an isomorphism.
\end{lemma}
From this, we establish:
\begin{prop}\label{propyamabe1}
Assume $(g-\mathring g)\in H^k_{5/2-n}$ for some $k> n+2$, and $Q(\mathcal M,g)>0$, then there exists $\phi$ with $(\phi-1)\in H^2_{5/2-n}\cap\overline{H}^1_{5/2-n}$ satisfying (\ref{yamabe2}).
\end{prop}
\begin{proof}
By assumption, $R\in L^n_{1/2-n}$, so $A_{\lambda}$ is an injection and by Corollary \ref{corfR}, it has closed range; that is, by Lemma \ref{leminjfam} we have that $A_1$, in particular, is an isomorphism.
Now let $v=\phi-1$ and note that (\ref{yamabe2}) requires
\begin{equation}\label{yamabemin1}
\frac{4(n-1)}{n-2}\Delta_g v-Rv=R.
\end{equation}
Since $A_1$ is an isomorphism, we have a unique solution $v\in (H^2_{5/2-n}\cap\overline{H}^1_{5/2-n})$. Furthermore, standard elliptic theory implies that $v$ is $C^{1,\alpha}$.
It remains to be shown that $\phi$ is positive, which follows identically from the Cantor-Brill argument, and essentially is as follows. For each $\lambda\in[0,1]$, there exists a unique $\phi_\lambda$ with $(\phi_\lambda-1)\in(H^2_{5/2-n}\cap \overline{H}^1_{5/2-n}\cap C^{1,\alpha}_{loc})$ such that $A_\lambda\phi_\lambda=0$. Furthermore, $\phi_\lambda$ depends continuously on $\lambda$ in the $C^0$ topology. Since $\phi_0\equiv1$, if there is any $\phi_\lambda$ that is not strictly positive, then there must be a $\phi_{\lambda_0}\geq0$ and $x_0\in\mathcal{M}\setminus{\partial\mathcal M}$ such that $\phi_{\lambda_0}(x_0)=0$, which then implies $\nabla\phi_{\lambda_0}(x_0)=0$. However, a classical result (Theorem A of \cite{aleksandrov1962uniqueness}) says that if $u_1\leq u_2$ satisfy $A_{\lambda_0}u_1=0=A_{\lambda_0}u_2$ on some region $G$, and there is a point $x_0\in G$ such that $u_1(x_0)=u_2(x_0)$ and $\nabla u_1(x_0)=\nabla u_2(x_0)$, then $u_1=u_2$ on $G$ (cf. \cite{cantoryorkdata1979}, Theorem 1.7 and the proof of Theorem 2.3). That is, $\phi_{\lambda0}\equiv0$, which is a contradiction and it therefore follows that $\phi>0$.
\end{proof}
From which we have the following immediate Corollary.
\begin{corollary}\label{cor1}
Assume $(g-\mathring g)\in H^k_{5/2-n}$ for some $k> n+2$, and $Q(\mathcal M,g)>0$, then there exists an asymptotically flat scalat-flat metric, conformal to $g$, that agrees with $g$ on $\partial \mathcal M$.
\end{corollary}
\begin{remark}
The assumption $k> n+2$ is certainly not sharp here, however this allow us to avoid complications by simply quoting standard elliptic theory.
\end{remark}
\section{Prescribed boundary mean curvature}
In this Section, we give conditions under which a function on $\partial \mathcal M$ can be realised as the mean curvature an asymptotically flat scalar-flat metric in a prescribed conformal class. While the scalar curvature transforms according to (\ref{yamabe}) under a conformal transformation $\tilde{g}=u^{4/(n-2)}g$, the mean curvature of ${\partial\mathcal M}$ transforms according to
\begin{equation}
\tilde{H}=u^{-n/(n-2)}\left(\frac{2}{n-2}\frac{\partial u}{\partial \eta}+Hu\right);
\end{equation}
where $\eta$ is the outward unit normal, pointing away from infinity, and $H$ is the mean curvature with respect to $\eta$. This problem can be simplified greatly by recalling work of Maxwell \cite{maxwell2005solutions} where asymptotically flat solutions to the Einstein constraints with apparent horizon boundary conditions are constructed. In particular, it is shown that the positivity of the Yamabe constant is a sufficient and necessary condition to ensure the existence of a scalar-flat, asymptotically flat metric with minimal surface boundary in a given conformal class. That is, without loss of generality we can assume both $R$ and $H$ vanish. The problem of finding a scalar-flat asymptotically flat metric conformal to $g$, with boundary mean curvature given by some $f$, then reduces to the following:
\begin{equation}\label{mainproblem}
\left\{\begin{matrix}
\Delta_gu=0&\text{ on }\mathcal M\\
\frac{\partial u}{\partial \eta}-\frac{n-2}{n}fu^{n/(n-2)}=0&\text{ on }\partial \mathcal M\\
u>0&
\end{matrix}\right. .
\end{equation}
We absorb the constant $\frac{n-2}n$ into $f$, and consider the more general problem
\begin{equation}\label{generalproblem}
\left\{\begin{matrix}
\Delta_gu=0&\text{ on }\mathcal M\\
\frac{\partial u}{\partial \eta}-fu^{\beta}=0&\text{ on }\partial \mathcal M\\
u>0
\end{matrix}\right. ,
\end{equation}
for any $\beta\in\mathbb{R}$.
The method of sub- and supersolutions has been particularly fruitful in considering the Yamabe problem on non-compact domains \cite{maxwell2005solutions,schwartz2006zero}, and it once again finds use here. The particular theorem regarding sub- and supersolutions that we use here is again due to Maxwell; we state a special case of this result below, which suffices for our purposes.
\begin{prop}[Proposition 2 of \cite{maxwell2005solutions}]
Suppose $g\in W^{k,p}_\rho$ with $k\geq 2$, $p>n/k$ and $\rho<0$. Further suppose that $f\in W^{k-1-\frac{1}{p},p}({\partial\mathcal M})$. Then if $u_-,u_+\in W^{k,p}_\delta$, for $\delta\in(2-n,0)$, are a subsolution and a supersolution of (\ref{generalproblem}) respectively, there is a solution $u$ to (\ref{generalproblem}) satsifying $u_-\leq u\leq u_+$.
\end{prop}
As usual, a subsolution is taken to be $u_-$ satisfying
\begin{equation*}
\left\{\begin{matrix}
\Delta_gu\geq0&\text{ on }\mathcal M\\
\frac{\partial u}{\partial \eta}-fu^{\beta}\leq0&\text{ on }\partial\mathcal M
\end{matrix}\right. ,
\end{equation*}
while supersolution refers to the case where the inequalities are reversed.
We establish the following.
\begin{prop}\label{propyamabe2}
Let $(\mathcal M,g)$ be an asymptotically flat manifold, where $g\in H^k_{5/2-n}$ with $k>n$, and let $f\in H^{k-\frac32}({\partial\mathcal M})$ satisfy $f\leq0$. Then the problem (\ref{generalproblem}) has a solution. Furthermore, if $\beta>1$ then there exists a positive function, $\rho$, on $\partial \mathcal M$ such that the problem (\ref{generalproblem}) has a solution for any $f<\rho$.
\end{prop}
\begin{proof}
It follows from Proposition \ref{propisolaplace} that there exists $v$ satisfying $\Delta_gv=0$, that is identically equal to $1$ on $\partial\mathcal M$, and $v\in H^2_\delta$ for all $\delta\in(2-n,0)$. Standard elliptic theory again implies $v$ is $C^{1,\alpha}$ and furthermore, note that we have $v=O(r^{2-n})$. By the maximum principle and the Hopf lemma, $0<v\leq1$ on $\mathcal{M}$ and $0<\frac{\partial v}{\partial\eta}$ on $\partial \mathcal M$. We now let $u_-=1-v+\alpha v$ for some $\alpha>0$, noting that $\Delta_g u_-=0$ and we have
\begin{equation}\label{eqsubsuper}
\frac{\partial u_-}{\partial \eta}-fu_-^\beta=-\frac{\partial v}{\partial \eta}+\alpha\frac{\partial v}{\partial\eta}-f\alpha^\beta=\frac{\partial v}{\partial \eta}(\alpha-1)-f\alpha^\beta
\end{equation}
on $\partial \mathcal M$. Since $\frac{\partial v}{\partial \eta}>0$, we have $\frac{\partial u_-}{\partial \eta}-fu_-^\beta<0$ on $\partial \mathcal M$ for sufficiently small $\alpha$. Furthermore, we have $u_-\rightarrow 1$ at infinity, and the maximum principle gives $\alpha\leq u_-<1$. That is, $u_-$ is a subsolution to \ref{generalproblem}.
To find a supersolution, we let $u_+$ be of the same form as $u_-$ above, however we will choose a different $\alpha$. It is clear from (\ref{eqsubsuper}) that we have a supersolution if there exists an $\alpha$ satisfying $f<\frac{\partial v}{\partial\eta}\,(\alpha-1)\alpha^{-\beta}$. This is certainly true if $f<0$ as we may simply chose $\alpha>1$. If we now impose the condition $\beta>1$, we find the maximum occurs when $\alpha=\frac{\beta}{\beta-1}$; that is, for $\beta>1$ a supersolution exists provided that $f<\rho:=\frac{\partial v}{\partial\eta}\,(\frac{1}{\beta-1})^{1-\beta}\beta^{-\beta}$. Once more by the maximum principle, we have $1<u_+\leq\alpha$, and therefore $0<u_-\leq u_+$.
\end{proof}
From this, we have the following immediate corollary.
\begin{corollary}\label{cor2}
Let $(\mathcal M,g)$ satisfy the conditions of Proposition \ref{propyamabe2}, then there exists a positive function $\rho$ on $\partial \mathcal M$ such that for any $f\in H^{k-\frac32}({\partial\mathcal M})$ satisfying $f<\rho$, there is a scalar-flat, asymptotically flat metric $\tilde{g}$, conformal to $g$, whose boundary mean curvature is $f$.
\end{corollary}

That's not only annoying in many cases, but also a general security risk – as ad- and tracking-modules inherit all permissions from their "host-apps". Moreover, there are other hidden costs of advertisements: with websites, they at best make up 50% of your traffic, in some cases more than 90%! Not to forget that sometimes there are also malicious ads – something Google Ads isn´t safe from either. So what can be done?
Alternatively, think about using a Firewall or Permission Blocker.

'The Dark Knight's' Spellbinding Tale Of Self-Sacrifice Underlies An Instant Classic

One decade ago the world was treated to arguably the greatest film ever made, and certainly the best film of the twenty-first century so far. On July 18, 2008, Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" blasted into cinemas like a typhoon of cinematic perfection.
This film was one of those special universally shared cultural moments of populist enthusiasm and critical appraisal. It blew the doors off so many genres it's hard to keep track. It was a perfect comic book film, a brilliant crime movie, a stellar action flick, an amazing superhero story, a nail-biting cop drama, an intense thriller, a political commentary, a tale of terrorism, and more. It defies classification.
It's a story of pure good and evil ironically set within a nihilistic universe. It's a neo-noir that surprisingly some Christians find too optimistic about human nature. It's deeply tragic yet surprisingly humorous. But in the end the only label and analysis that really matters is that for two-and-a-half hours it is absolutely riveting. And ten years on nothing has changed.
I'll never forget the day I saw it. A theater in Pasadena with my immediate family and my new wife of a mere 3 months. An electricity was in the air. Everyone in that theater and across thousands of theaters the world over were being connected by a narrative that transcended all of us. As the film came to its shocking Pyrrhic conclusion I could sense what was about to happen. There was a physical excitement and tension about to be unleashed.
As soon as the last line was spoken and the credits rolled, the entire audience of several hundred people rose in unison to their feet with thunderous applause. I don't remember how long that moment lasted, but it must have been a while because later my hands felt raw.
Moments like that are what make the cinema truly special. Before film we had novels and plays. These are either very private subjective experiences or unrepeatable corporate events. Film is objective. It's always the same. Everyone gets to have access to the exact same images and words. When we fill the theaters on an opening weekend we are all experiencing the same thing. It is a sacred moment that transcends time and space.
"The Dark Knight" did this in a way that no other film ever has. Other films have made more money or effected our emotions more deeply. But few have spoken so deeply and so powerfully to the tragic vision of human life, while also being so relentlessly entertaining.
Each cast member feels entirely at home, tailored exactly to their role. But the two key parts are actually Gary Oldman's Commissioner Gordon and Heath Ledger's Joker. Ledger's final performance is rightly praised for its incomparable brilliance, but in many ways Oldman grounds the film. This is one of his least spectacular roles, in that he isn't playing a villain or an eccentric.
But it might be his best simply because this is Oldman at his most human. With Ledger, of course, it's the exact opposite. He's not human at all in this film. Ledger imbues the Joker with a bizarre sort of demonic puppetry. He doesn't really seem alive, more like possessed. A conduit for evil insanity. He goes from goofy to terrifying within seconds. There's never been a villain like it.
Adding to the cultural moment, we all said goodbye to a beloved actor. Ledger died before the film was released and never got to see how special his contribution to our world would be. We said farewell while watching him at the height of his powers, powers no one knew he had.
On more than one occasion I have thought that if the film has a flaw, it's that there's really no final physical confrontation between Batman and the Joker. But the truth is that would have made it a lesser film. The conflict between them is moral, not physical. And they are fighting for something bigger than the typical cops and robbers business of the funny books. They are fighting for the human soul writ large, represented by the people of Gotham. As the Joker says, "You didn't think I'd risk losing the battle for Gotham's soul in a fist fight with you?"
Ultimately this film is about the forces of ordered freedom versus pure senseless chaos. Rules and laws bind a man. Law makes men corrupt. But so does chaos. The truly good man learns to be a law unto himself. A self-restrainer. That is the essence of Batman. It's why he won't allow himself to violate that one rule: no killing.
Only a rightly ordered soul can flourish in this world when everything is crumbling to dust. At their best this is what Superheroes represent. They are not properly vigilantes. They are something more.
The central theme of Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy is the cost of standing up to evil. That when a truly good man goes to war, all the corners of darkness gather together and spiral after him as if moths to a flame. Goodness is not easy. To be good has a cost. And the cost of Batman is escalation, which is why "The Dark Knight" is such a brilliant sequel. It takes the threads laid down so carefully in "Batman Begins" and creates an amazing tapestry with them — a tapestry of escalation.
Goodness is controversial. True virtue is divisive. As Jesus said: "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword …Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me."
This is why "The Dark Knight" is such a powerful myth. It resonates, echoes, and harmonizes with the archetypal true myth of the Cross. The film's chorus is "You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain." Jesus did both.
And when Batman faces the final evil, the seduced and corrupted Harvey Dent, he defeats his failure through self sacrifice. Batman becomes the scapegoat. The soul of Gotham is about to be crushed by the revelation of Harvey Dent's turn to evil. The people have expressed their faith by not destroying each other in the Joker's trolley death trap. And Batman decides to reward that faith. He says: "Sometimes the truth isn't good enough, sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded."
This is why "The Dark Knight" makes our hearts flutter with the echoed promise of our own redemption. The Batman runs into the wilderness of the night falsely branded a murderer in the place of the true sinner, then travels through the underground passage where the Joker set his ambush. He passes through hell and death. Then the one covered in the darkness of the night, bearing the shame of false guilt, ascends out of hell into a blinding light.
Over this like a prophet Gordon majestically says: "So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight."
Similar but more profound words were spoken thousands of years before by an actual Prophet: "But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed."

AccueilTURKISH DRAMACan Yaman, Sandokan will have 8 episodes, uncertain who will buy the series: Rai or Netflix speculation
Can Yaman, Sandokan will have 8 episodes, uncertain who will buy the series: Rai or Netflix speculation
Can Yaman will be the protagonist of Sandokan, in the remake of the TV series of the '70s. In recent days, gossip leaked on the net about the new professional challenge of the protagonist of DayDreamer - Le ali del sogno and the paparazzo Paolone had revealed to his followers that the soap's production would have stopped but in the last hours, rumors and details about the eight episodes of Sandokan have been circulating. While some U.S. networks seem interested in buying the rights of the TV series, in Italy it is still uncertain who will broadcast the remake of the soap.
Can Yaman play the role of Sandokan in eight episodes lasting 50 minutes.
There is a lot of anticipation for the new television series Sandokan, which will star Can Yaman. In the past few months, the Istanbul-based actor has been undergoing hard physical training in the gym, at the horse stables, and doing saber fights, in order to best interpret the role of the Tiger of Malaysia. In the last few days, Paolone had announced to his followers that the Sandokan project was frozen but, through the magazine directed by Alfonso Signorini, details about the TV series, which will be composed of eight episodes, with a duration of 50 minutes, have been leaked.
Can Yaman: in Italy, it is uncertain who will broadcast Sandokan
Can Yaman is very loved in Italy and his soap operas have always been broadcasted, until now, on Canale 5.
A few months ago, the Turkish actor took part in an episode of Che Dio ci aiuti, an RAI fiction, and, as of today, it is still uncertain who will broadcast in our country the remake that made Kabir Bedi famous in the 70s. Among the hypotheses circulated in recent days, several possibilities seem to be open, in fact, the eight episodes of Sandokan could be broadcast on television by Mediaset or Rai or end up on a paid platform like Netflix or Amazon. | {

Aiming to bring the urban home into tomorrow.
Founded in 2017, domovi is taking on the home appliance market.
We're building the next generation of smart home appliances for the urban home. We see our value in making them compact, conscientiously built, and connected. In urban apartments, having access to all amenities takes up a substantial amount of space and layout planning. Our goal is to provide a three-in-one solution that is easier to place in prefab/modular homes, as well as update apartments who only previously had a dishwasher. By providing all washing amenities in a home, we can take much of the time out of the chore through a simple IoT interface.
Domovi is still small but looking to grow in 2019. We're a team with hands-on hobbies, curiosity that drives innovation forward, and passion that takes a strong iterative design approach over a shorter timespan.
Leanne has over a decade of experience designing robots as well as a variety of vehicle subsystems, consumer products and computer systems. She is the captain of Valkyrie on Discovery and Science Channel's Battlebots, one of the Top Women in Tech of Rev Boston's Rev 3, and has previous career experience at Datto, Toyota, Husqvarna, and Vecna. After noticing that common household appliances hadn't had much design improvements, she decided to set out and create Domovi to help achieve her dream of an efficient and automated chore smart home.
Jonathan Schultz joined mid-2018 to help design efforts after Leanne saw his successful robot design and team leadership on Discovery and Science Channel's Battlebots where they were both team captains. Jonathan is a hands-on mechanical engineer that has experience with fuel cells, extensive automotive repairs, as well as a handful of years building unique, competitive combat robots (he even won the Battlebots 2018's Best Design award for his robot, Huge).
We're located at Greentown Labs, a green tech hardware incubator.

Born in Salt Lake City, Utah, Lance Egan has been fly fishing since age 12. Although Lance comes from a non-fishing family, fish have intrigued him since he was too young to talk. When he was a baby, and not sleeping through the night, Lance's parents would prop him up in front of a large fish tank where he would abruptly stop crying and watch the fish until falling back to sleep. He has been completely obsessed ever since. When Lance was old enough to drive, he was off fishing every chance he could get—fishing before and after work, after school and every day off. Today he fishes an average of 150 days per year and never gets tired of wetting a line. He has made a career of fly fishing. employed at Fly Fish Food, he currently resides in Lehi, Utah, with his wife Autumn and son Mikey, just minutes away from many lakes and streams. He is a pro staff member of Ross Reels and Scientific Anglers and is an Umpqua Feather Merchants Signature Fly Designer. Lance also tests prototype fishing gear for Simms Fishing Products. | {

Betting on football is all well and good, but it is all the more fun if you can make a profit in the process. This beginners football betting guide will hopefully at least set you on the right path towards achieving your betting goals.
We all know that we should follow odds and bet with our heads straight – but there are also some small yet very significant strategies that you should consider. Following each and every one of these tips will ensure that your betting experience is enjoyable – and not a surefire trip to the crazy house.
Many books have been written on football betting strategy – some good, some bad – and there are no doubt plenty of winning methods out there, but here we outline the ten key points which have assisted us with our football betting over the years.
Often the final score in a football match will prove to be an accurate reflection of how the game has played out. The previous results of a team will also often be one of – if not THE – major factor which impacts upon the team's odds for their subsequent fixtures.However whilst a string of recent wins is invariably better than a run of losses, the final score does not ALWAYS tell the whole story.
By looking deeper into the stats; at factors such as possession percentage and total shots on target for example, we can identify teams who have been acheiving the results their performances deserve, and those who have perhaps been more than a little unlucky. As such we can have greater confidence in backing a team who has been winning AND playing well, whilst possibly unearthing some good value bets amongst those teams who have been playing well but been unlucky in their recent matches.
This can be of vital importance. Many – even top tier – teams have one or two players who are key to their performance. Be it their defensive lynchpin, creative midfield spark or lethal front man, the absence of one or two individuals can greatly impact the results of a side. As an example, whether a sides top-scorer passes or fails a late fitness test should certainly impact upon your betting decision.
This factor is ever more important in the modern era with the vast fixture lists often faced by sides. Whilst some of the top teams take the various Cup competitions seriously, others often play little more than a mixture of their youth and reserve players.
When risking your cash on a football match, you should at least make the effort to find out exactly who you are betting on.
Whilst it is possible to bet on just about every football league around the world – that doesn't necessarily mean that you should. Can you really hope to know enough about them all to bet profitably?
Far better to specialise in a smaller number of Leagues, and make an effort to get to know the teams/players in as much depth as you can. A good tip here is to pick the ones you already know best/find most interesting. Keep up to date with the latest news and read the match reports. You never know when you may pick up that vital betting clue.
Specialising in this manner will give you a far greater chance of formulating those all important winning football betting strategies. As with many things in life though, it never hurts to listen to the informed views of others…..
Never underestimate just how much information you can find on a betting forum. These forums have people who, just like you, want to become winners. Therefore, these individuals will ask for advice – and will be given advice. While you shouldn't use the forum as your only informational resource, it's still a good place to learn a thing or two.
The betting world had many words that you probably never heard about in your entire life – and as a beginner, they might really confuse you. Before diving head-on, you might want to become familiar with all those terms – and avoid swimming in unknown waters. Sure, most of these tips you'll learn along the way, but it won't hurt learning about as many as you can before you start off.
It happens to the best of us: you see yourself on a winning spree and you are convinced it's going to last. However, you should not get carried away, simply because you never know what may happen. One minute your luck is here and the next one it's gone.
There is no right way to place a bet, nor is there a wrong way to do so. You can take all kinds of approaches. You can take different strategies, you can work with different systems, and you can find the winning method that works best for you.
Again, it happens to the best of us: you lose once, and that loss will make you say that you're never going to bet again. Still, if you let every small thing bring you down, you're not going to make any actual money. Remember that with each loss you learn something new.
We know you want to have fun and make some cash – but in order to become a successful bettor, you may want to take a break every now and again. Taking regular breaks will prevent it from turning into a chore and keep it into a pleasurable hobby.
There may be a lot of bettors explaining the math about how a certain team is likely to win; however, if your judgment is with a different player, don't let yourself be swayed. Sure, you may consider their opinion – but don't let it influence you if you don't feel it is right.
we have recommended the list of the best betting sites for you to bet on that is very secure below. | {

Q: Closed form for $\int \frac{1}{x^7 -1} dx$? I want to calculate:
$$\int \frac{1}{x^7 -1} dx$$
Since $\displaystyle \frac{1}{x^7 -1} = - \sum_{i=0}^\infty x^{7i} $, we have $\displaystyle(-x)\sum_{i=0}^\infty \frac{x^{7i}}{7i +1} $.
Is there another solution? That is, can this integral be written in terms of elementary functions?
A: Factorise $x^{7}-1$ and use partial fractions - I do not expect your answer to be nice. You should get 3 unfactorable quadratics which will contribute $\tan^{-1}$ terms, and one factor $x-1$ which will give some multiple of $\ln(x-1)$.
To perform the actual factorisation, note that the roots of $x^{7}=1$ are $e^{\frac{2ni\pi}{7}}=\cos(2n\pi/7)+i\sin(2n\pi/7)$ for, say, $n\in\{-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3\}$. Thus we can factorise as follows:
$$x^{7}-1=(x-e^{-6i\pi/7})(x-e^{-4i\pi/7})(x-e^{-2i\pi/7})(x-1)(x-e^{2i\pi/7})(x-e^{4i\pi/7})(x-e^{6i\pi/7})$$
Now note that $(x-e^{i\theta})(x-e^{-i\theta})=x^{2}-(e^{i\theta}+e^{-i\theta})x+1=x^{2}-2x\cos\theta+1$ is a real-valued quadratic, and hence if we group the linear complex factors into pairs like this, we can get 3 real quadratics as we wanted. The factorisation becomes
$$x^{7}-1=(x^{2}-2c_{1}x+1)(x^{2}-2c_{2}x+1)(x^{2}-2c_{3}x+1)(x-1)$$
where $c_{k}=\cos(2k\pi/7)$.
Now try partial fractions - you need to find constants $A_{1}\ldots A_{7}$ such that
$$\frac{1}{x^{7}-1}=\frac{A_{1}x+A_{2}}{x^{2}-2c_{1}x+1}+\frac{A_{3}x+A_{4}}{x^{2}-2c_{2}x+1}+\frac{A_{5}x+A_{6}}{x^{2}-2c_{3}x+1}+\frac{A_{7}}{x-1}$$
By multiplying by each factor, you can get a set of seven linear equations for your seven constants, which you can solve by any method you choose. This will be very unpleasant. Integrating the last term is trivial (simply $A_{7}\ln(x-1)$) and the quadratic terms are less so. Taking the first term as an example, note $$x^{2}-2c_{1}x+1=(x-c_{1})^{2}+(1-c_{1}^{2})=(1-c_{1}^{2})\left[\left(\frac{x-c_{1}}{\sqrt{1-c_{1}^{2}}}\right)^{2}+1\right]$$
So, making the substution $u=\frac{x-c_{1}}{\sqrt{1-c_{1}^{2}}}$ will give you some terms of the form $\frac{2au+b}{u^{2}+1}$ which trivially integrates to $a\ln(u^{2}+1)+b\tan^{-1}(u)$. The arithemtic of finding these constants is left as an exercise for you.
A: Allowing complex numbers, we can write
$$
\int \frac{dx}{x^7-1} = \frac{1}{7}\left(\log(x-1) + \sum_{k=1}^6 \exp(i 2\pi k/7) \log\big(x-\exp(i 2 \pi k/7)\big)\right) + C .
$$
A: Let u=x^2 and solve using u substitution.
=> 1/6 ln((x^6-1)/x^6)

I'm one of those "I'm not happy unless I'm incredibly busy" people. Add to that an extremely active mind, even at night and bouts of anxiety. Yay! I'm working on so many projects right now - all of which I'm so excited I can barely sleep. That fact is starting to affect my health.
So that I'm not a walking stress ball, I've changed my diet pretty dramatically (focusing on plant based food and eliminated quite a bit including all meat but fish), have gotten myself back into the pool and with the help of a new app called Refresh, this talented and handsome fellow recently came to my apartment- massage table in tow to "refresh" my mind and bod.
Jonathan is one of the many massage therapists at Refresh Body. The app is ridiculously easy to use and offers "world class wellness wherever you are". You can book massage, pilates, yoga or mindfulness (I want to try this next!) I think booking took all of a 2 minutes if that. I selected a 90 minute Swedish massage but you can also do Thai, Deep Tissue or Sports massages. You can even choose who you'd like to come - pick Jonathan, reasons...obvious.
The masseuse shows up to your place, sets up the table (we used my living room pictured above), Jonathan put on some really chill jazz and left the room for me to get on the table. Then for about 90 minutes transformed my life, haha. I've had a lot of massages, a lot! and this was one on par with the best.
The awesome part is that when it was over - though I kind of wanted to have a tantrum and get 90 more minutes, it was nice that I was already home and not sent out into the streets of Manhattan to become stressed 10 minutes after my treatment. I could take the time to be still and continue to quiet my mind. I did have to run out shortly after for a meeting in midtown but I was incredibly relaxed for the rest of the day and it set me up for feeling amazing the rest of this week.
Next time I think I'll book the latest appointment and go right to bed. Heaven!

Through the generosity of many people, during the last year (2016) , Outreach East was able to assist 6,325 individuals.
$10,00 0 in medical needs, personal care items, school supplies, gas cards, diapers, wipes, laundry and dish soap, to mention some of the other areas we help in.
1322 families received over 118,800 pounds of food from our food pantry. Not included in this number are the donated bakery goods, bagels, fresh fruit, vegetables, "free shelf" items and food from the schools we repurpose to our families.
60% of our funds are donations from individuals, businesses, area churches, community service clubs and organizations.
40% comes from our fundraisers, such as the Thunder for Hunger/Rock Out Hunger Party, Rock of Ages Dinner/Concert, Flower Sale's and many other events throughout the year.
Although the economic climate is improving in other areas, it doesn't seem like our side of Genesee County is faring as well.
Our senior client numbers are up 30% from 3 years ago and we see more single people than we have ever before.
Many of our families, even with as little as they earn, make too much to qualify for a Bridge Card (food stamps).
Daily, I have the privilege of meeting clients— people just like you and me— who are experiencing difficult financial times and are doing their best to make ends meet.
Some are victims of cancer, car accidents, illnesses, abuse, job loss, hurricanes (We have helped 3 families who lost everything and relocated here because of Irma) or have taken in grandchildren, nieces, nephews or unrelated children due to addictions or abuse.
I know I have mentioned this in the past but I think it bears repeating—Our clients could be your neighbors, people who attend your church, wait on you in restaurants, gas stations, sit next to you at school events, etc. Their children could go to school, play, ride the bus or eat lunch with your children.
Some of their situations are heart breaking and we at Outreach East give thanks to all those who support this program and are grateful to be in a position to make a positive difference in their lives.
If you already support Outreach East, thank you very much. If not, please consider making a donation today, or click here to see all the ways you can help us. Your generosity could make a huge difference in someone's life. | {

Testing Communications On Medical Devices and Radiation-Emitting Products
OMB 0910-0678
OMB.report
HHS/FDA
This generic ICR collects information through a variety of research methods for developing and testing communications involving medical devices and radiation-emitting products that are regulated by FDA. The information will be used to assess the need for communications on specific topics and to assist in the development and modification of communication messages to promote public health and compliance with regulations. FDA creates and uses a variety of media, including print, broadcast, and electronic formats to communicate with the public and health professionals about the risks and benefits of regulated products. To ensure that such health communication messages have the highest potential to be received, understood, and accepted by those for whom they are intended, FDA will conduct research and studies relating to the control and prevention of disease. This type of research involves (1) assessing audience knowledge, attitudes, behaviors and other characteristics for the planning/development of health messages, communication strategies, and public information programs; (2) testing these health messages, strategies, and program components while they are in developmental form to assess audience comprehension, reactions, and perceptions; and (3) evaluating the final communication products to determine the effectiveness of the messages and distribution methods.
The latest form for Testing Communications On Medical Devices and Radiation-Emitting Products expires 2023-04-30 and can be found here.

Oh My Godheads is the world's first capture-the-head action game for 1-4 players. Capture-the-head is like capture-the-flag, but the flag is an ancient head that's alive, angry, and after you! Fight with friends to capture these furious, living heads and bring them back to your team's plinth...if you can.
Oh My Godheads was released on Switch 207d ago in the US and the UK.
Notify me when Oh My Godheads is available.
Based on 6 Oh My Godheads reviews, Oh My Godheads gets an average review score of 58.
While it's a lot of fun with friends, a lack of depth and poor AI mean it's not so much fun without any.
Even when the gimmick is brought in full force, it has a tendency to feel more obnoxious than fun.
Fun for an hour or two, nothing more.
While Oh My Godheads may be fun with friends at a party, it just loses all of its value when it comes to playing against the AI. | {

MSI GL65 Leopard 10SFK-062 15.6" FHD 144Hz 3ms Thin Bezel Gaming Laptop Intel Core i7-10750H RTX2070 16GB 512GB NVMe SSD Win 10 Best Overall
Lenovo Ideapad L340 Gaming Laptop Budget Pick
Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop PC Upgrade Pick
1. MSI GL65 Leopard 10SFK-062 15.6" FHD 144Hz 3ms Thin Bezel Gaming Laptop Intel Core i7-10750H RTX2070 16GB 512GB NVMe SSD Win 10
2. Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop PC

4. ASUS TUF FX505DT Gaming Laptop
5. Razer Blade 15 Gaming Laptop: Intel Core i7-8750H 6 Core
6. Acer Predator Triton 500 Thin & Light Gaming Laptop
Are gaming laptops worth it 2021?
What is the most reliable gaming laptop?
What are the top 10 laptops for 2021?
Are gaming laptops worth buying?
You will get a lot of processing power with the Intel Core i7 quad-core 10-Series CPU
Thin bezel means this laptop is a good choice if you want one of the smallest gaming laptops
The laptop's display has a lightning-quick 144Hz refresh rate
Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630
You can choose the hard drive capacity and memory size you want, along with a choice of two different operating systems
Blackout 15 thermal technology and dedicated PWM fan headers
You will have access to Thunderbolt 3
SteelSeries Engine integration
The laptop's interior is a simple, clean design
Premium materials are utilized for the laptop chassis
This is as good as gaming laptops get–it is approximately half an inch thick and it has a 15.6" 144Hz screen with thin bezels. The keyboard lights up and there is a lot of depth to this laptop. It can be purchased in a variety of configurations.
The Acer Predator 15 is one of the most popular gaming laptops under Rs 1.5 lakh. Most of its "flaws" are things that you can get over pretty easily. Most PC gamers will love its gaming grade Nvidia graphics, blazing fast performance, and 15.6-inch full-HD screen.
The Acer Predator 15 comes with a NVIDIA GTX 1060 graphics card that can handle any game at a very high frame rate.
The laptop is also extremely fast, thanks to its well-designed cool air intake. It gets hot, but the fan keeps it cool, even under heavy gaming loads. The solid aluminium lid gives it a sturdy feel, while the plastic hinge feels vulnerable and flimsy.
Great budget gaming laptop
Runs smoothly with its Intel Core i5-9300H (8th-gen) processor
A powerful laptop capable of playing AAA games at low settings
It runs cool thanks to its modern CPU and a dedicated GPU
Battery life could be better, Quick Charge 3.0 would have been nice
The Ideapad L340 is the 2019 latest mid-range gaming laptop offered by Lenovo. It comes in many variants, where the top model comes with a 1TB HDD and a 128GB SSD, along with an Intel Core i7-8750H processor that runs at 2.2GHz.
The laptop has an Intel Core i5-9300H processor, which is an 8th-generation one and comes with 8GB of RAM and a dedicated graphics card, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650. The GTX 1650 is a graphics card that can handle playing AAA games at medium settings.
Great design (not very heavy and thin)
Powerful hardware – GTX 2060 and Core i7
Definitely one of the best in the market at the moment
Less than usual battery life due to high performance of CPU and GPU

Probably, But not if you're a casual gamer! Almost all games can be played on a gaming laptop. But they're definitely not anywhere near as affordable as a regular laptop.

The Art of the Ad
In a traveling exhibition, illustration gets a turn in the spotlight.
By Jason Coates
Founded in 1901 with only nine members, and now grown to nearly 1,000, the Society of Illustrators has always sought to "promote and stimulate interest in the art of illustration." During its long history, its affiliations grew to include such legendary painters as Maxfield Parrish, James Montgomery Flagg and Norman Rockwell, to name a few.
Each year, the society publishes a catalog containing examples of the best contemporary American illustration. The 40 framed illustrations on view at the Anderson Gallery were selected from the more than 500 samples in this year's publication. The artists range from veterans such as Anita Kuntz and Brad Holland to relative newcomers like Virginia Commonwealth University graduate Sterling Hundley.
Given the society's long tradition, it should come as no surprise that many of the featured artists pay homage to artists of yesterday. In some cases, the art that is being emulated is more recognizable than the illustrators', such as with Loren Long's acrylic painting of a jazz lounge interior titled "Harlem Slow Dance" for Dellas Graphics. Though skillfully rendered, its subject matter, loose gestural quality and cubist influence make it an image that could've just as easily been painted by Thomas Hart Benton. This allusiveness also characterizes Gregory Manchess' Gustav Klimt-esque painting of a gnarled figure within a shallow golden backdrop for client Tor Books, as well as James McMullan's version of an art nouveau lithograph for Lincoln Center Theater.
Other artists aren't so easily overshadowed by history. C.F. Payne's humorous painting of the cast of "Friends" portrayed as geriatrics for Entertainment Weekly demonstrates that an illustrator can actually add to the lessons learned from the past. By combining traditional applications of oil painting with a highly stylized, textural brand of figure distortion that is very much his own, Payne becomes the clearest example of the Society of Illustrators at its best. He may not be inventing anything new here, but there's no mistaking a C.F. Payne picture.
Because illustration is, by design, intended to be engaging and approachable rather than challenging, the relatively high quantity of the images here doesn't feel that daunting. Truth be told, you could probably look at 40 more. The consistent skill of the artists, coupled with a variety of media and applications, makes this show a great sampling of where the field of illustration is today. You may find some names you recognize, but most likely you'll discover artists you didn't know you were already familiar with. S

Nice attack: when the mundane can be used for acts of terror, how do we protect people?
It took just one man and a truck to kill dozens of people in Nice. We could still do more to make public spaces safe.
Don't dismiss the idea of women-only carriages. It might help. | {

As creative hobbies go, drawing is one of the cheapest, most rewarding and simplest to start – so why not give it a go today?
Drawing is a favourite pastime of children all over the world but many of us give up the habit as we grow older. Reclaim some of the joy and creative thrill you enjoyed when you were small by picking up a pencil and getting back into drawing.
Don't be intimidated by the thought of getting started, the most important thing about drawing is to simply enjoy yourself. With plenty of practise, most people can become competent drawers but the most important part is often the process of creation, not necessarily the finished result.
Drawing is an excellent way to encourage your brain to think creatively. This means that simply spending a little time doodling can have far-reaching effects, such as improving your problem solving abilities and making it easier for you to process large amounts of information.
You don't have to be highly skilled to enjoy these benefits and even drawing simple shapes and easy compositions can be a wonderful way to learn. Keep a daily sketchbook and fill it with everything that inspires you, whether it's a pencil drawing of some flowers or a biro sketch of your favourite car. Read this lovely guide to making drawing a part of your life on Squidoo for some excellent inspiration.
One big advantage of taking up drawing compared to some other hobbies is the fact that you need very little in the way of materials. Initially, all you need is some blank paper and a pencil or pen. As you become more proficient and want to start experimenting with different drawing styles, you may want to expand your range to include chalks, charcoals, artist's pencils and special inks. Duey's Drawings is a site with an excellent guide to drawing materials, perfect for helping you stock up your pencil case.
The most important thing you can do to improve your drawing is to do it as often as possible. From doodling to pass the time to sitting down to embark on a big drawing project, the more you flex your creative muscles the stronger they will become. However, you'll also find there's plenty of help available if you'd like some extra guidance. Check local schools and community centres for drawing classes or have a look at Lori McNee's five favourite websites for learning how to draw.
Working on perfecting the art of drawing can also be very useful for other creative hobbies, such as painting, sewing or woodwork. Grasping the basic rules of sketching will make it easier for you to translate your ideas into a thing of beauty. Also, if you find your drawings are of a high standard, you may even be able to make money from them. Sit back and watch a fun slide share about using your drawing hobby to earn a little cash and see if you've got what it takes to boost your income. | {

Solar cycle 25
Predicted Sun activity 2019 to about 2030
Solar cycle 25 is the current solar cycle pattern of sunspot activity. It began in December 2019, with a smoothed minimum sunspot number of 1.8.[1] It is expected to continue until about 2030.[2][3]
1 Predictions
2 Early signs
Predictions[edit]
Several varying predictions have been made regarding the strength of cycle 25, with predictions ranging from very weak with suggestions of slow slide in to a Maunder minimum like state[4][5][6] to a weak cycle similar to previous cycle 24[7] and even a strong cycle.[8][9][10] One published solar cycle prediction, which had claimed a very weak cycle with a slide to Maunder-like minimum in activity, was retracted, with the agreement of one of its four authors, by the Editors of Nature due to fundamental errors which overstated Earth-Sun distance variability over a period of centuries.[4] Upton and Hathaway have predicted that the weakness of cycle 25 would make it part of the Modern Gleissberg Minimum.[5]
The Solar Cycle 25 Prediction Panel predicted in December 2019[11] that solar cycle 25 will be similar to solar cycle 24, with the preceding solar cycle minimum in April 2020 (± 6 months), and the number of sunspots reaching a (smoothed) maximum of 115 in July 2025 (± 8 months). This prediction is in line with the current general agreement in the scientific literature, which holds that solar cycle 25 will be weaker than average (i.e. weaker than during the exceptionally strong Modern Maximum).[7]

Early signs[edit]
Time vs. solar latitude diagram of the radial component of the solar magnetic field (supersynoptic map or "butterfly" diagram) for Cycle 24 based on the (zero-point corrected) integer rotation synoptic maps from GONG. Blue/red show negative/positive polarity fields scaled between ±5 Gauss. Two black arrows mark approximate location of two latitudinal bands of Cycle 25. Data are acquired by GONG instruments operated by NISP/NSO/AURA/NSF.
As of April 2018, the Sun showed signs of a reverse magnetic polarity sunspot appearing and beginning this solar cycle.[17] It is typical during the transition from one cycle to the next to experience a period where sunspots of both polarities exist (during the solar minimum). The polarward reversed polarity sunspots suggest that a transition to cycle 25 is in process.[18] The first Cycle 25 sunspot may have appeared in early April 2018[19][20] or even December 2016.[18]
In November 2019, two reversed polarity sunspots appeared, possibly signaling the onset of cycle 25.[21][22]
Nandy et al. (2020, Res. Notes of the AAS) analyzed the polarity orientation of bipolar magnetic regions observed in December 2019 and concluded that magnetic regions with the underlying orientation of solar cycle 25 toroidal field component were brewing in the solar convection zone, representing early signs of the new cycle.[23]
Supersynoptic (time vs. solar latitude) map of the radial component of the solar magnetic field for Cycles 24-25 based on observations from the Global Oscillations Network Group (GONG) shows magnetic activity of cycle 25 beginning November 2019 at about 30 degree latitudes in both solar hemispheres.[24]
As at January 1, 2021, solar cycle 25 is showing early signs of being somewhat stronger than solar cycle 24.
• The 13-month average sunspot count for June 2020 was 7.8 spots per day, compared to 4.1 for the corresponding month in the previous cycle.
• November 2020 averaged 34 spots per day, 10 months earlier than the first month to average 30 or more in cycle 24.
• The first single day to have 90 spots has occurred in month 12 of this cycle, compared with month 27 in cycle 24.
• Since June 1, 2020, there have been 80 spotless days, compared to 139 in the corresponding period of cycle 24.[25]
• 2020 had 80% more sunspots than for the corresponding period in SC24. These figures are in early agreement with a new paper (October 2020) by McIntosh et. al.[26] which projects that solar cycle 25 will almost certainly be stronger than SC24 (ISN max 116), and most likely stronger than SC23 (ISN max 180).
Events[edit]
Solar flares in 2020[27]
On 29 May, the first C-class solar flares of Solar Cycle 25 took place, including the first M-class flare. Solar activity continued to increase in the following months, especially abruptly in October, with flares taking place on a near-daily basis by November. On November 29, an M4.4 flare, the strongest of the cycle to date, took place, possibly indicating the Solar Cycle would be more active than initially thought.[28]
On 8 December, a small coronal mass ejection was found heading directly towards Earth shortly after a strong C-class solar flare, hitting the planet on 9/10 December and causing bright aurorae at high latitudes.[29][30]

October 27, 2018 in Advocacy, Exciting, RPF News
For the past few years, the Rheumatoid Patient Foundation has run an annual scholarship program to support students affected by Rheumatoid Disease. Our goal has been to expand the program each year. This year, we have upped our Scholarship Program to award five $1,000 scholarships to students who are affected by Rheumatoid Disease. We'd like to take a moment to thank everyone who applied for our Scholarship Program. We received many wonderful essays and applications. Our judging panel has chosen our five winners this year, and we'd like to introduce each of them to you. Please join us in congratulating these five individuals!
Michelle Carrera (Miami, FL)
Michelle was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis at age 11. Her experience with the healthcare system has made her committed to pursuing a career aimed at improving quality of care and access to care for underserved communities. She is currently pursuing her Master's in Public Health with a concentration in Health Policy & Management.
Lauren DeMarco (Charleston, SC)
I am from Charleston, SC and am currently a freshman at Wake Forest University. My academic interests include English, Spanish, and visual art. Outside of the classroom, I love to stay active, participate in community service, and spend time outside.
Maxwell Nelson (San Jose, CA)
Maxwell has lived most of his life in Minnesota, where he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in political science from the University of Minnesota. Maxwell was diagnosed with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis at age 17 and has benefited from immunosuppressive drugs. He now lives in San Jose, California and attends Santa Clara University School of Law in Santa Clara, California. Maxwell plans to focus his studies on international law and public interest law.
Ashley Poolman (Hillsboro, OR)
My name is Ashley and I was diagnosed with JRA at age 13. Fast forward 9 years, I am now enrolled in a doctoral program for clinical psychology at Pacific University in Oregon. Within clinical psychology, I am studying health psychology because I am especially interested in how physical health and mental health influence each other. I am also adding an emphasis in Latinx psychology to be able to serve Spanish-speaking populations. I am grateful to the Rheumatoid Patient Foundation for letting me share my story and I hope to use my experience with arthritis to help those in similar situations.
Elizabeth Roach (Elgin, IA)
My name is Elizabeth Roach. I have had Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis since I was 14 months old. I am currently in my first year of graduate school for Child Life at Edgewood College in Madison, Wisconsin. I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Iowa in Therapeutic Recreation. I am really looking forward to my future working in hospitals to help children like me who have chronic illnesses as a Child Life Specialist.
Many thanks to all who applied to our Scholarship Program this year. Congratulations to this year's winners, and we look forward to seeing what your futures hold!
A special thank you to our sponsor, Crescendo Bioscience, for making this Scholarship Program possible!
Crescendo Bioscience (a subsidiary of Myriad Genetics) focuses on enabling more effective management of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases by providing quantitative, objective molecular tests and disease information services to rheumatologists and patients. Crescendo Bioscience's current products are: Vectra® DA, the only multi-biomarker blood test for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity, and MyRA, a free mobile app designed to empower people living with RA to regularly track multiple aspects of their RA and easily share the information with their physician. www.VectraDA.com www.TrackMyRA.com

Ferneyhough, *Collected Writings*:
> "…the 'memory of a production process', the place of performance as the point
> of confrontation for **objectively measurable systems** and **subjective
> obscuration, erosion and eradication**" (107)
> "…between **objectively measurable systems** and their nemesis, **subjective
> criteria of retention**." (114)
Note:
- efficiency
- W. Benjamin
- tape as memory

</audio>
Note:
- Inefficiency/excess of instrumental gesture
- arguable relation to L's _Pression_ (1969)
- such inefficiency exacerbated by electronic swamping later
--
Ferneyhough, _Collected Writings_:
> …the **'raw'** elements were forced to generate new offshoots by being passed,
> under pressure, through an **alien** formal grid. (113)
Artaud, _Le Pèse-Nerfs_:
<!-- .element: class="fragment" data-fragment-index="1" -->
> The grid is a terrible moment for sensitivity and substance.
<!-- .element: class="fragment" data-fragment-index="1" -->
Note:
- Introduce quote 1 with _TMS I_ revision process information
- Quote 2 from same text used for cellist in _TMS II_
- Used twice by F. in his other writings
--
Ferneyhough, *Collected Writings*:
> "…the electronic 'cage'…" (108)
> "…encounter between the sort of self-expression demarcating the individual and a sometimes uncooperatively febrile array of sonic 'distorting mirrors' of collectivity…" (108)

Note:
- The "violence" is very clear in how F. speaks of the exhaustion/death of the
musician at the end of the work.
- "switching off" / electric chair
- discuss form/dramaturgy
--
Note:
- s.24–28: 11 pitch class expanding pitch field (starts G, ends C#)

# But!
> A cyborg is a cybernetic organism, a hybrid of machine and organism, a
> creature of social reality as well as a creature of fiction.
>
> […]
>
> This chapter is an argument for _pleasure_ in the confusion of boundaries and
> for _responsibility_ in their construction.
<!-- .element: class="fragment" data-fragment-index="1" -->
— Haraway, _Simians, Cyborgs, and Women_, 149–50
<!-- .element: class="fragment" data-fragment-index="1" -->
Note:
- credit Iddon
- more positive spin
- deconstructing binaries
- "organism/machine, self/other, culture/nature, reality/appearance,
whole/part, agent/resource, truth/illusion"
- is cello technology?
--
> A cyborg body is not innocent, it was not born in a garden; it does not seek
> unitary identity and so generate antagonistic dualisms without end (or until
> the world ends); it takes irony for granted. __One is too few, and two is
> only one possibility.__
— Haraway, _Simians, Cyborgs, and Women_, 180
Note:
- "electronic environment" as cyborg-subject
- space of experience expanded from the unitary subject
- Counter-argument to F.'s pessimism
--
Note:
- local vs. distributed
- the cyborg agency is not unitary/local
- this dilutes the fear that the subject is being imprisoned oppressed

여기, International Space Station 및 수많은 앱에 대한 모든 정보가 있습니다. 무료로 가입하고 관심 있는 앱들에 대한 정보와 경쟁자의 인사이트, 앱 업계 현황에 대해 알아보세요.
대한민국에서 International Space Station 의 다운로드 순위 기록을 확인하세요.
순위 기록은 Mac 앱 스토어에서 International Space Station의 인기와 시간에 따른 인기의 변화를 보여줍니다. 또한, 국가, 카테고리, 기기에 따른 International Space Station 의 일일 성과를 추적할 수 있습니다.
With a simple click you can also see the live webcam stream coming from the International Space Station. You will watch the astronauts activities with video and audio, all live.
Calculation of the position of the station is very accurate, the app uses the latest NASA code optimized for Mac to calculate it. You don't get an approximated position, you get the exact position, speed and altitude of the Station.
You can zoom, move and resize the map as you like at any time.
The app downloads at regular time, once per day when you startup it, from our server, the latest orbital parameters to calculate the orbit, so the calculation obtained for the position is always accurate and perfect because the app uses updated orbital parameters.
No user action required, the app does it all.
Our own server provides always updated NASA data to your app when it requires it.
Requires an internet connection for map visualization, data update once a day, web cam stream and web pages access. | {

New COVID strain in the UK: The concerns, impact on vaccine development and all you need to know
The new SARS CoV2 variant may be up to 70% more transmissible
Web Desk Updated: December 21, 2020 15:27 IST

The rapid spread of a new variant of coronavirus in the UK is eliciting a fight or flight response from countries around the world. More than a dozen nations have already closed their borders to flights from the UK owing to the detection of a new mutation of the virus, which has killed more than 17 lakh people worldwide since its outbreak last year.
A number of questions regarding the nature of the new mutation and its effect on vaccine development have cropped up ever since. Read on to know more about the mutation, its impact on vaccine development and more.
What is a mutation?
A mutation is an alteration in the genetic material (the genome) of a cell of a living organism or of a virus that is more or less permanent and that can be transmitted to the cell's or the virus's descendants. In short, it is a simple process of a mistake made in a DNA sequence, or a misspelling of the DNA sequence, as it is being copied.
Mutations can be made during cell division, exposure to ionizing radiation, exposure to chemicals called mutagens, or infection by viruses. It can also be induced by carcinogens in a way that can increase the risk of cancers.
However, it is not always a villain as it is projected to be because mutations are key to the process of evolution.
Viruses and mutation
The fact that the coronavirus, or the SARS Cov 2, is mutating is no news as it is. That is because every virus mutates; it is part of the virus life cycle. In some cases, these mutations may actually weaken the virus strain. Sometimes, the changes are so slight that there is no noticeable difference in the disease's transmission and fatality rates.
That the coronavirus is mutating was established earlier this year itself, as countries were still locked down to contain the spread of the infection. But the virus has mutated at a very slow pace. According to reports in the first half of the year, new copies of the coronavirus weren't far off from the original virus and hence, less concerning.
But why is the current mutation concerning?
Scientists and public experts are more concerned about the new strain—called B.1.1.7—in the UK because of three reasons—one, it has been observed to rapidly replace other versions of the virus. Two, it has mutations that affect part of the virus likely to be important. In addition, preliminary investigations suggest that some of those mutations have already been shown in the lab to increase the ability of the virus to infect cells.
The three factors combined together gives a strong virus that can spread easily. The UK government's advisers on new infections have "moderate" confidence that it is more able to transmit than other variants.
Reportedly, the new variant is showing some 17 changes in the genome, quite a significant change. There have been changes to the spike protein—this is the key the virus uses to unlock the doorway to our body's cells.
One mutation called N501Y alters the most important part of the spike, known as the "receptor-binding domain", where the spike makes first contact with the surface of our body's cells. Any changes that make it easier for the virus to get inside are likely to give it an edge.
That said, these are all early conclusions and come with huge uncertainties.
Is the mutation more deadly?
There is no evidence to suggest that it does, although this will need to be monitored, reports BBC. However, just increasing transmission would be enough to cause problems for hospitals. If the new variant means more people are infected more quickly, that would in turn lead to more people needing hospital treatment.
How much faster is it spreading?
The variant was first detected in the UK in September. According to UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, the variant may be up to 70 per cent more transmissible. Covid-19 case rates nearly doubled in London over the past week, with almost 60 per cent of these infections attributed to the new strain, which means that treating the new variant lightly would be mere foolishness.
How much has it spread?
According to BBC, the new variant can be found across the UK, except Northern Ireland, but it is heavily concentrated in London, the South East and eastern England. Cases elsewhere in the country do not seem to have taken off.

Data from Nextstrain, which has been monitoring the genetic codes of the viral samples around the world, suggest cases in Denmark and Australia have come from the UK. The Netherlands has also reported cases. A similar variant that has emerged in South Africa shares some of the same mutations, but appears to be unrelated to this one.
On Sunday, Italy said it has detected a new coronavirus strain with mutations in a person who recently returned from the United Kingdom. So far, none of the Asian nations, including India, has reported the new strain.
Will the new variant adversely affect vaccine development?
While we have reasons to believe that the new variant is spreading more rapidly than the original version, it is not yet believed to be more deadly.
At the same time, it would take years—not months—for the virus to evolve enough to render the current vaccines impotent, say experts, urging caution. So far, on the vaccine development front, slow and mild nature of the mutations is good news.
"No one should worry that there is going to be a single catastrophic mutation that suddenly renders all immunity and antibodies useless," NYT reported quoting Jesse Bloom, an evolutionary biologist at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. "It is going to be a process that occurs over the time scale of multiple years and requires the accumulation of multiple viral mutations. It's not going to be like an on-off switch," Bloom says in the report.
Vaccines, in general, tend to target an early version of the virus. A response against the ancestor has given good results against all the descendants until now in similar cases. This is because more than often, an older strain of a virus will "preserve enough features" that it will provide immunity against a whole group of variants.
Scientists and experts have been optimistic that the COVID-19 vaccine will most likely protect people against the "vast majority of circulating COVID-19 strains for the foreseeable mutations."

Tammany Hall, to potoczna nazwa stowarzyszenia znanego jako Society of St. Tammany, Sons of St. Tammany, lub Columbian Order, które było polityczną organizacją, założoną w Nowym Jorku w roku 1786 i zarejestrowaną 12 maja 1789 jako Tammany Society. Była to maszyna polityczna Partii Demokratycznej, która odgrywała kluczową rolę w kontrolowaniu działalności miejscowych polityków i wspomagała imigrantów, zwłaszcza z Irlandii. W znaczącym stopniu oddziaływała na życie polityczne w Ameryce od lat dziewięćdziesiątych XVIII do sześćdziesiątych XX wieku. Miała wpływ na nominacje kandydatów na urzędy z ramienia Partii Demokratycznej i sprawowała kontrolę na Manhattanie od zwycięstwa Fernando Wooda w wyborach burmistrza w roku 1854, aż do wyboru Johna P. O'Briena w 1932. Supremacja Tammany Hall uległa ostatecznie osłabieniu wraz z elekcją Fiorello La Guardii, który został wybrany głosami Republikanów, reformistycznie nastawionych Demokratów i niezależnych w roku 1934 i – mimo chwilowego powrotu w latach pięćdziesiątych – przestała istnieć w sześćdziesiątych.
Tammany Society wzięła nazwę od Tamanenda, wodza Indian z plemienia Lenape, a w połowie XIX wieku wyrosła na główną siłę polityczną Demokratów w mieście. "Hall" będący główną kwaterą Stowarzyszenia został zbudowany w latach trzydziestych XIX wieku przy East 14 Street. Od tego czasu Tammany Hall kontrolowało przebieg większości wyborów w mieście Nowy Jork.
Stowarzyszenie poszerzyło swoje wpływy polityczne jeszcze bardziej zyskując zaufanie wciąż rosnącej imigranckiej społeczności miasta, która stała się podstawą politycznego kapitału organizacji. Tammany Hall miało na usługach przywódców politycznych ward (ward boss lub ward heeler) – "wardy" były w latach 1686–1938 najmniejszymi politycznymi jednostkami w mieście – zabiegających o lokalnych wyborców i zwalczających opozycję. Począwszy od roku 1845 siła Tammany zaczęła gwałtownie rosnąć wraz z napływem do Nowego Jorku milionów irlandzkich immigrantów. Od roku 1872 Tammany miało "irlandzkiego bossa", a w 1928 faworyzowany przez Tammany nowojorski gubernator Al Smith zdobył nominację Demokratów w wyborach prezydenckich. Z drugiej strony Stowarzyszenie posługiwało się często korupcją polityczną, szczególnie widoczną za czasów Williama "Bossa" Tweeda w połowie XIX wieku.
Tammany Hall straciło na znaczeniu w XX wieku; w 1932 roku burmistrz Jimmy Walker został usunięty z urzędu, a prezydent Franklin Delano Roosevelt pozbawił Tammany wpływu na politykę ogólnokrajową. Burmistrzem w roku 1934 został przeciwny Stowarzyszeniu Republikanin Fiorello La Guardia, który zasiadał na urzędzie przez trzy kolejne kadencje. Tammany odzyskało na krótko siły w latach pięćdziesiątych, ale spotkało się z opozycją w łonie Partii Demokratycznej, na czele której stali Eleanor Roosevelt i Herbert H. Lehman, a także Nowojorski Komitet Wyborców Demokratycznych (NYCDV). W połowie lat sześćdziesiątych XX wieku Tammany Hall zaprzestała działalności.

Trying To Make Sense Of The Senseless Attack In Manchester
by R.V. Baugus
#arianagrande, #manchester, #manchesterarena, IAVM
It has taken me more than 48 hours since the horrific attack on innocent people outside the Manchester Arena on Monday night to write something about the senseless carnage. As the editor of Facility Manager magazine and an employee of the International Association of Venue Managers, I have a vested interest and concern about what happens in the world of public assembly venues. And in this case, I do mean the world.
The tragedy and loss of 22 lives and several more injured happened in the United Kingdom. It could have happened in Garland, Texas, just to use an example (which it did).
On any given night around the world, there are thousands of scheduled events taking place with audiences of all sizes held at venues of all capacities. It is a concert here. It is a soccer match there. It is a car show here. It is an opera there. It is a carnival here. It is a fair there. It is a movie here. It is a church gathering there.
It is people going out to live and love life at the venues our members manage as well as countless other venues who have no idea what IAVM is. That is OK. We are talking about celebrating what we enjoy, going someplace to laugh, cheer, watch, worship, participate. It is the essence of social human existence, something that human beings we need to exist. Social interaction, we call it. Being in a community of like believers and fans.
On this particular Monday night outside this particular arena in this particular city, all of that was brought to a halt in the most unimaginable way possible. A terrorist kills himself in order to also claim innocent lives.
Words really do fail at a time like this. I often thought the phrase "I don't have the words …" was just a cliché, but when something like this happens, well, what do you say? We support even when we don't have solutions, at least those of us who are not professionally equipped to address and find solutions when tragedy strikes.
We rightfully say that our thoughts and prayers are with the families of those whose lives were taken as well as the survivors. Please don't let that become a cliché. If you are not the praying type, then by all means please do have your thoughts with our friends in Manchester. And if you are the praying type, then please have your prayers as ongoing, because these folks do need our prayers for their strength and comfort at this time and going forward.
Several IAVM staff met the morning after the tragedy to discuss our Association's response. I have never been prouder to be on a staff and team that cares so much about this wonderful industry. We are not venue managers, but I know that each and every individual who works at IAVM deeply cares about not just our members and their venues, but what happens at other venues as well.
As you might expect, our president and CEO, Brad Mayne, has been overwhelmed from media seeking comment, as has Chairman Mark Mettes. Our director of education, Mark Herrera, has given numerous interviews to local and national publications, radio and television. We are fortunate to have someone with Mark's security background and training on our staff.
In our Tuesday meeting, Mark spoke about how this diabolical act took place after an Ariana Grande concert concluded and people were leaving the venue. We often think about safety and security before an event, from the parking lot to bag searches to magnetometers and more. We don't want the bad guys in the venue with us, but what about when they are lurking in the shadows outside the building? When the show ends, doesn't everything seem anti-climactic? The curtain raises. The lights go up. A voice might or might not be on the PA system to tell everyone thank you for coming and to please drive safe on your way home. Aren't we all supposed to get home when we leave?
I thought back to John Wilborn's story in the January/February issue of Facility Manager as he recounted the full scope of what happened at the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, when two armed terrorists arrived to cause destruction and death as people were leaving that venue following an event. Fortunately, the bad guys were killed by police before they could cause harm.
Unfortunately, the same did not happen this time. Lives were lost, and we mourn and hurt for the senseless violence. But we stand with the city of Manchester, the Manchester Arena, its staff and everyone there who has a role at the facility.
And those bent on violence always need to know this: Manchester, Garland, or anywhere else, the show WILL go on.
R.V. Baugus is senior editor of IAVM's magazine, Venue Professional. Baugus is a 12-time Quill Award winner from the Dallas chapter of the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) and Silver Quill recipient from the Southern Region of IABC. He is devoted in his community by serving as a deacon at his church, a facilitator leading a Grief Share class, high school football public address announcer for the Irving ISD and basketball PA announcer for Nimitz High School.

I opened and was the first Executive Director of the NYNEX arena (Manchester, UK) in 1995. I would appreciate the opportunity to talk about my emotions and feelings as the tradegy unfolded at the venue I opened 22 years ago while I was posted in Manchester for two years by Ogden Entertainment.
R.V. Baugus June 9, 2017 at 1:34 pm
My friend, I would incredibly welcome a submission from you regarding your most personal thoughts, feelings and emotions as it relates to what happened in Manchester. If you would like to share in an article, I would be pleased to run it. Feel free to reach out directly to me at [email protected]. All the best to you.
Lee, I am sorry for the late reply. I would very much welcome your sharing in an article or blog your own emotions, thoughts and feelings on this tragedy and on a place near and dear to you. Feel free to contact me at [email protected] and we will do everything possible to help make this happen.

Police in Alabama say they've arrested a man who went on a several-day-long spree robbing at least four Subways at gunpoint in the Birmingham area. The man, 18-year-old Zachary Torrence, tells detectives the reason is because he's spent a lot of money on "Jared's diet" so far — a six-inch turkey or a footlong veggie, if he's true to form — without any of Jared's weight loss.
Torrence didn't pick up any of Jared Fogle's reported $15 million net worth, either. He told police the whole thing struck him as false advertising, and he wanted his money back. In retrospect, he probably should have just filed a lawsuit like some of the chain's other disappointed customers.
Apparently somebody noticed Torrence walking around a Walmart in the same orange shoes he'd worn in stores' surveillance footage that was all over the news. He was allegedly looking to buy a new holster for the gun he had used in the robberies. | {

I have done quite a few quilting tutorials now, so this page will give you the list and links to the basics. I'll update it when new ones are posted.
Quilt Borders and Understanding the Why of doing it the right way. Believe me your longarm quilter will appreciate you getting the ruffles out, LOL!! You'll learn why measuring is so important with lots of pictures to show you the reasons and the steps. One will be done correctly, and one not so you can see the difference.
Another Lesson on Measuring Borders – How to get an accurate measurement with what not to do.
Mitering Printed Borders – getting that perfect miter with those pesky prints.
Loading the Longarm – why we need certain things like extra fabric, and what happens when it isn't there.
How to use Fussy Cut Templates – getting your fussy cuts to be just right!
Binding Color Experiment – what happens with different colors of binding on the same design.
Thread Color Experiment – quilting the same quilt with three different thread colors to see the difference thread can make.
Quilt Binding Part Three – Joining the Binding Ends, how to join the ends so the jointing point isn't apparent. No tuck and turn here!!
Quilt Binding Part Four – Turning the edge to the back to hand finish, completes the process and results in perfect mitered corners on both sides.
How To Clean and Care For Your Older Sewing Machine – what to do and how to oil and clean an older machine.
Check back here for more tutorials as they are added. Or better yet, follow my blog so you don't miss new ones! Thank you for viewing my tutorials!!
Great tutorial and excellent photos to show the correct way to do this! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Ellie, you are so right! I fixed the numbers. LOL, you can even see it in the pictures! Thanks again.
This is wonderful information on the correct way to put on borders so that quilt is square and flat. When it comes to longarm quilting, you just can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear. You can make a purse, but it won't be a beautiful silk purse.
Thanks, Nanc, that is so true!! I often say that with this kind of thing you can have flat or square but not both. But, with flat nicely applied borders you can have it all!
I'm a slap and sew quilter and my quilts are always wonky. Thanks for a great tutorial. I need to learn to add borders correctly. The long armers I work with are getting annoyed with me.
Thanks, Sarah! I know they will give you lots of kudos for a flat border. I know I would, LOL!
Thank you so much for this tutorial–I do the sew and measure as I never trusted the slap & sew method and you have reinforced that thinking.
Thanks, Marlene! I appreciate the comment.
Thank you, Jean! I hope you and your friend enjoy the other tutorials on the blog too.
Great tutorial, Carole. You are sew right. A well made and sewn border can make all the difference. Thanks so much for sharing!
Great tips and photos showing why this is important!
Thanks so much for linking up to Needle and Thread Thursday!
As a beginning quilter, I love getting tips from pros. This particular step in quilt making is an issue for me. Thank you for the wonderful tutorial and the many picture that were included in it.
I have saved it for future use.
Excellent tute; thanks so much. Explains to me why my slap and slash method looks the way it does and your way of measuring and pinning is just like my mom taught me to do ruffles, no reason at all NOT to transfer that method to borders on quilts. Happy Spring.
Thank you, Lynda! Glad you found it useful!
THANK YOU!! I am truly grateful this is "archived" under our borders themes at Tuesday Archives. Now it is handy for future reference. Often I avoid borders or do the slap and sew method….this post was EXACTLY what I was hoping to find in today's linky!!
Thank you. This is what I try to teach students in my quilt classes. It sure keeps the quilt straight and flat. Your post is very good.
Carole, there is a reason why you are getting so many hits. You're tutorial is spot on, and very well-written. I will be linking to it in my Friday Finds on May 9th as my earlier ones are written already. I'm leaving on a road trip tomorrow so I had to "plan ahead". Thanks for educating quilters on the best ways to do things.
Thank you so much Marsha!! I hope you will check out the other tutorials on squaring up blocks, putting on borders and more.
I didn't realize that you had so many tutorials. A few definitely caught my eye so I pinned the entire post in my pinterest! Thanks for linking up to Anything Goes Mondays!
For larger quilts using Warm and Natural, can I seam it together to get the width I need ?
Sure, just place the edges of side by side and use a zigzag stitch to hold them together, if you don't have the right size. | {

Transcription Democrat Frank Denholm and Republican challenger, Larry Pressler, are pictured above before they debated at Presentation College Wednesday, October 16. They are contenders for the First District Congressional seat. Absentee ballot deadline nears Those students who will not be home to vote on election day, Tuesday, November 5, have an opportunity to vote by mail with an absentee ballot. Absentee voting by mail is a very simple procedure. It can be accomplished in one of two ways. First, the student can write to the county auditor in the county in which he is registered to vote and simply ask for an absentee ballot, making sure that his signature is included with the request. Second, the student can send an absentee request form, which can be obtained from the Brown County Auditor's office, to his home county to ask for a ballot. A few days after the student mails the request to his county auditor, he will receive an absentee ballot. The student may only vote in front of a continued on page 4 xponent Volume 74 Issue 8 Northern State College—Aberdeen, South Dakota 57401 October 24, 1974 Federation discusses possible pay hike Denholm-Pressler clash in debate over issues by Joani Nelson About 250 people gathered at Presentation College Wednesday, October 16, to watch a debate between Democrat Congressman Frank Denholm and his Republican challenger Larry Pressler. In the hour-long debate, broadcast by KKAA radio station, Denholm and Pressler clashed on several issues, including the economy, agriculture and Congressional reform. The first subject discussed was the economy. Each candidate expressed his views on the three issues of in-flation, tax reform and federal spending. Denholm stated that the biggest inflationary problem in the United States today is the farm-retail price spread. He called for a meeting of farmers at which petitions concerning this problem would be signed for Denholm to present to President Gerald Ford. Denholm also advocated a small cut in the defense budget. Pressler, on the other hand, argued that inflation could be cut if Congressmen set an example for the nation by taking a 10 percent reduction in pay. In his opinion, one of the reasons inflation has risen is because Congress took a 48 percent pay raise five years ago and because "Congressmen take more and more out of the system and won't put anything into it." Pressler also noted he is for a strong national defense but feels that we should invest more domestically and some wasteful government spending could be cut. In the area of tax reform, Denholm mentioned measures he feels should be instituted. These proposals in-cluded an excess profit tax for cor-porations, a tax on exhorbitant salaries of corporate officers and a surcharge tax on salaries of over $25,000. He also felt that the help of more Congressmen to attack ex-cessive price-gouging and of the executive branch in monitoring prices were needed to accomplish tax reform. Pressler noted that before tax reforms can be successful, the people who make the tax laws must make their income tax returns public. He criticized Denholm for being the only member of the South Dakota Congressional delegation to refuse to make public his income tax returns. From tax reform, the two can-didates moved into the area of federal spending. Denholm com-mented that the Congress now has a President who is willing to work to solve the country's problems. He emphasized, "I will work with President Ford when I agree with him, and when I differ from him I will let you know." The topic of federal spending brought a different reaction from Pressler. "I have a much broader approach to federal spending than my opponent, - he said. In clarification, Pressler commented, "I went to college on the GI bill, and it's just not adequate. I am also appalled at conditions affecting senior citizens. I think we have to rearrange our priorities and invest more resources in our people. For example, I would vote for the Mansfield Amendment to cut the defense budget because we don't need 33 more generals today than we had during World War II." Agriculture was the next topic the two candidates debated. Denholm recommended three measures to alleviate agricultural problems. The first was to cut off meat imports for a time; the second was for the continued on page 3 by Scott Mayer Student Association President Curt Knudsen, Student Association Vice- President Dean Olson and Com-missioner of Curriculum and Com-munications Torn Jongeling represented Northern at the monthly meeting of the South Dakota Federation of Student Governing Bodies held in Brookings October 20. Several important items were discussed at the 9:00 a.m. meeting, including a possible South Dakota college faculty pay raise, the Federation budget and the South Dakota Incentive Grant Program. At a recent South Dakota Board of Regents meeting, a resolution was passed recommending a 10 percent pay raise for all faculty members on college campuses across the state. Along with the 10 percent raise, a three percent merit pay increase was also recommended. The merit pay is a "bonus - given to faculty members who excel in their field. The three percent raise would be graduated, with the instructor doing superior work receiving the full three percent raise, while less superior teachers would receive a smaller raise percentage. The Regents pointed out that this increase would not raise the student's tuition rate. When recommending the raise, the Regents pointed out that South Dakota ranks forty-seventh in the nation for teacher salaries. It was noted that South Dakota colleges have lost several superior teachers due to the low pay scale. At the Student Federation meeting, the representatives voted to have increased faculty salaries as a priority at the next meeting. At that time, a definite amount will be set. Knudson pointed out that if the South Dakota legislature in Pierre passes the pay raise recommendation, the increases will go into effect next fall. In the past years, the Federation hired a student lobbyist to speak for them during the legislative session in Pierre. With the Federation deciding against hiring a lobbyist this year at the last meeting, a sum of $2,500 will be available to the Federation. There was considerable discussion on what to do with the additional money, with Northern proposing a $2,000 refund to all South Dakota colleges in the Federation, with the remaining $500 staying in the Federation fund. Another proposal brought up for consideration was for all $2,500 to stay in the Federation budget as a sort of "slush" fund. Several colleges felt that the $2,500 would enable the Federation to meet the needs of the college students more efficiently. Northern's representatives were opposed to this suggestion. "Basically, we didn't think it was sound management to let the money remain in the budget," Knudsen commented. After considerable debate, the Federation voted 4-2 to keep the entire $2,500 in the budget. The South Dakota Incentive Grant Program was also discussed at the day-long conference. Rod Kranzler, an intern of the Student Incentive Grant Program, announced that an excess of 300 students were unable to get grants for the 1974-75 school year. Reasons cited for this was lack of funds, lack of eligibility reports and students failing to make deadline reports. A meeting will be held in Pierre today to discuss the grant program, according to Kranzler. | {

Of course, everyone's preferences will vary (small kids can't ride roller coasters, teens may not like 'kiddie rides', etc.), so we'll also provide a brief description of every attraction to give you an idea of whether particular attractions might be good fits for your family.
This should help give you an idea of which Magic Kingdom rides and attractions are must-see for you–which includes headliners and some sleeper picks–and which ones you won't have time to do. If you're visiting Walt Disney World between 2019 and 2021, it's important to note that a lot is changing and under construction. We update this post regularly, but if you want all the latest news and construction info, we recommend that you subscribe to our free email newsletter.
If you have children, you should also consult our full list of attractions with height requirements at Walt Disney World. Several of the more popular attractions in Magic Kingdom have height requirements; it's good to know which before booking your FastPass+.
Not everything on our "Top Magic Kingdom Attractions" list is a headliner or E-Ticket attraction that draws huge crowds. We think this is a good thing–popular attractions are popular for a reason, and most people won't need to be told that they should experience them. It's the other, less-popular attractions that round out a day in the park, and experiencing the "right" less-popular attractions can make or break your day.
A day in the Magic Kingdom is about variety, and some less-popular attractions are also exceptional, just not in a 'knock-your-socks-off' way. You could spend all day waiting in lines to experience the "Magic Kingdom Mountain Range" multiple times each because they are thrilling, but if all you care about is thrills, you aren't having a well-rounded experience. Doing some of the sleeper attractions also means less time spent in lines, which is always a plus.
You may have more or less time depending on how many day tickets you purchase and whether you add on the Park Hopper option (read our Walt Disney World Ticket Guide to determine which tickets are best for you).
Pirates of the Caribbean (10/10) – Pirates of the Caribbean is a boat-ride back in time to the days when pirates ruled the Caribbean. The attractions features Audio Animatronics pirates, including Captain Jack Sparrow, engaging in swashbuckling mayhem. The ride now has a re-imagined auction scene with a new redheaded female pirate.
This is great fun for guests of all ages (the darkness and gunfire might scare really young children). It contains great detail, tons of characters, a catchy song. Due to FastPass+, this now gets really long lines. If you use FastPass+ efficiently, you should be able to grab a day-of "bonus" (4th) FastPass+ for this, so don't give it FastPass+ priority.
This roller coaster has a 44″ height requirement and is entirely in the dark–plan accordingly if you have kids. Space Mountain is a FastPass+ attraction, and it's highly recommended that you utilize FastPass+ for it or that you prioritize Space Mountain early in the morning or late at night.
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train (8.5/10) – Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is the newest ride in Magic Kingdom, and is one of the most popular at Walt Disney World. We covered this attraction in a comprehensive, spoiler-free review, so check that out if you want to know more. The coaster's strengths are its Audio-Animatronics and theming, the weaknesses are duration and show lighting.
This roller coaster dark ride hybrid has a 38″ height requirement, but is very smooth and should not bother those with mild fears of heights. We highly recommend getting FastPass+ for Seven Dwarfs Mine Train if you can. If not, do it first thing in the morning or get in line just before the park closes.
Haunted Mansion (10/10) – The Haunted Mansion is a slow-moving dark ride that is home to 999 happy haunts that are dying to meet you. No further explanation should be necessary.
If you aren't familiar with the premise of the Haunted Mansion, you're probably living under a rock. In the Haunted Mansion, the ghosts are the more jovial, singing type, so it shouldn't startle young children, but it is dark. This is another attraction that you can do whenever.
Splash Mountain (10/10) – Splash Mountain is a log flume ride that features a story from Disney's Song of the South film, and climaxes with a big drop into the briar patch. Not only does it have that thrill, but it has great Audio Animatronics-driven show scenes that make it an all-around winner and one of the best attractions in all of Walt Disney World. Minimum height is 40″; the drop is the only part of the 'scare-factor'. We recommend using FastPass+ for this, or hitting it in the morning.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (9/10) – A guest favorite, Big Thunder Mountain a rollercoaster themed as a runaway mine train on a ride through the barren landscape of the Old West. Hang onto your hats and glasses, because Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is "the wildest ride in the wilderness!" Big Thunder Mountain is a FastPass+ attraction, although we probably wouldn't use FastPass+ on it. Do it relatively early or late at night.
Enchanted Tales with Belle (9/10) – An elaborate character encounter (for lack of a better term) in New Fantasyland, the draw of this attraction really depends upon the guests. Everyone will (probably) be impressed by the technology utilized in it, but only small children and their parents are likely to enjoy the actual experience, which is a bit hokey (in fairness, for some kids, this attraction will be the highlight of the trip). FastPass+ for it is moderately recommended. If you can't get FastPass+, consider doing it fairly early or later in the evening.
Country Bear Jamboree (9.5/10) – A stage show featuring Audio Animatronics singing bears from the South, Country Bear Jamboree is a love it or hate it attraction. If you surveyed a random sample of Disney guests, a good portion would probably disagree with our score for Country Bear Jamboree. They're wrong.
Country Bear Jamboree is a nuanced, sharp, and irreverent show that most intelligent guests (and kids) will like. Those who enjoy irreverent and witty humor will like Country Bear Jamboree. The only reason it loses a half-point here is because the show was shortened a couple years ago, removing some of the best jokes. Do Country Bear Jamboree whenever.
Dumbo the Flying Elephant (7.5/10) – Now part of New Fantasyland, there are two Dumbo spinners that have considerably eased wait times (moving it from its iconic location behind Cinderella Castle also probably assisted in decreasing wait times). It's a classic and rite of passage for all kids, but thanks to new lighting and short waits, it's now a fun night-time attraction for guests of all ages. Don't use FastPass+ on it.
Peter Pan's Flight (8.5/10) – Peter Pan's Flight attracts some of the longest lines in the park, and unless you use a FastPass+ on it or arrive right at park opening (or jump in line right before park close), you might consider skipping Peter Pan's Flight. It's iconic because it takes guests in "flying" ships above London and Neverland, but it's so incredibly outdated that unless you have serious nostalgia for it or young children who might buy into actually flying, there's a good chance it will be a letdown given the waits. The new interactive queue added last year does help, making the long wait in line (if you have to wait) more bearable.
'it's a small world' (8/10) – 'it's a small world' is the iconic attraction featuring the children of the world and that song. Again, unless you live under a rock, you're familiar with it. Lines are never all that long, it's good for guests of all ages, and is a relaxing boat ride. Experience this whenever–don't use FastPass+ on it.
Mickey's PhilharMagic (9/10) – A 3D montage film mostly from the "Disney Animation Renaissance" cleverly tied together with Donald Duck. Children of the 90s are sure to love this film, but really, anyone should enjoy it. Do it whenever–we recommend it as an escape from afternoon heat. Definitely don't use FastPass+ on it.
Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover (7/10) – This is here because it's a no-wait, slow-moving diversion that offers nice views of Tomorrowland, pure and simple. It makes for a good rest, and for most people, that's it. If you're looking for an attraction that's more of an engaging experience, go elsewhere. We love it, but we're not the norm. Note that it does go through Space Mountain, so a portion of it is in the dark, which might scare kids. Do this whenever–it's best at night when the neon of Tomorrowland is lit.
Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor (8/10) – A screen-based "stage" show during which monsters interact with and tell jokes to guests. It's not popular with Disney fans, but there are sour grapes there over its location in Tomorrowland. We think the Laugh Floor fires on all cylinders, with great guest interaction and humor that appeals to a wide range of audiences. Kids will laugh at the "standard" jokes told by the monsters, adults will laugh at the interactions between monsters and kids (and adults). The jokes change depending upon the audience, so if you really enjoy it, do it again. Shy guests may not like it due to uneasiness about being picked on. Do this whenever, don't use FastPass+.
Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room (7/10) – Enchanted Tiki Room is a 15-minute musical serenade from Audio Animatronics birds in a theater-in-the-round. You've probably heard these catchy songs before; the fun music of this attraction, and its history, makes it an attraction not to be missed. The theater is somewhat dark, but it should be fine for kids.
Jungle Cruise (8.5/10) – Jungle Cruise is a boat ride through the rivers of Adventureland that encounters hippos, lions, and piranhas, etc., along the way. The real highlight here is the non-stop zingers of the skippers who pilot the boats. If you don't appreciate dry, intentionally corny, or self-aware humor, you may not like Jungle Cruise. We've seen a number of guests exit the Jungle Cruise with confused looks on their faces. It is highly skipper-dependent. If you get a poor skipper, this could be a 4/10 ride–our 8.5 rating assumes a good skipper. Do this somewhat early in the day, but not first thing. Don't waste FastPass+ on it.
Festival of Fantasy Parade (9/10) – This is the first Magic Kingdom daytime parade in a long time that I've loved. It is ambitious, and large in scale and scope. The parade floats are all large, detailed and have a lot of substance to them. The float that has captured everyone's attention is the steampunk-esque Maleficent float, and this is understandable because it breathes fire.
The Brave, Tangled, Peter Pan, and Monstro floats are similarly well done. Add to this performers in costumes that have a lot of detail, a catchy soundtrack, and a great energy, and you have a parade that's a real winner. Check out our Festival of Fantasy Parade Tips post for best viewing places and more.
The Muppets Present… Great Moments in American History (10/10) – This show debuted last year as atmospheric entertainment, but it has quickly become a show around which guests plan their visit to Magic Kingdom. For good reason: this show is exceptional, featuring the quick wit of the Muppets and incorporating actual lessons from American history. There are 2 different shows that alternate randomly, but usually the last two shows of the day are different from one another (we recommend watching these last two shows). This is the best new addition to Magic Kingdom in years, and it's an absolute must-do.
Mickey's Royal Friendship Faire (7/10) – The newest Cinderella Castle daytime stage show in Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World, having debuted last summer. This is similar to past 'smile and dance' shows on the castle stage, and arguably a bit better. Mickey's Royal Friendship Faire drops the pretense of a plot, and lets the show exist just for the sake of existing, as a fun festival with Mickey and various characters dancing and singing. The costuming is also pretty good, and there are seasonal variations of the show, adding to its rewatchability.
Happily Ever After (10/10) – There is no more fitting of a way to close a day in the Magic Kingdom than with fireworks. The new fireworks show is Happily Ever After, which replaced Wishes. As we write in our Happily Ever After Review, this is one of the best fireworks shows Disney has ever done, anywhere. It is absolutely not to be missed. We recommend viewing it on Main Street with the fireworks exploding behind Cinderella Castle (best spots are recommended in our Magic Kingdom Fireworks Viewing Guide). Note that even as of January 2019, Happily Ever After is still incredibly popular, and it's recommended that you stake out a spot at least 30 minutes in advance.
Once Upon a Time (9/10) – Immediately before or after Happily Ever After (depending upon park hours), Once Upon a Time is shown on select evenings. This show utilizes projection mapping plus pyro, lasers, and fire, and features Mrs. Potts from Beauty and the Beast telling bedtime stories to Chip. Along the way, they are pulled into the stories of numerous classic animated films, such as Cinderella and Peter Pan. This show replaced Celebrate the Magic, and is a nice improvement over its predecessor.
COMING IN 2021: Tron Lightcycle Power Run – We don't normally mention attractions that aren't yet open, but since this coaster is already operational at Shanghai Disneyland and we've experienced it there, we thought we'd include a short blurb. This indoor/outdoor roller coaster is set on 'The Grid' from the TRON films. Think Rock 'n' Rollercoaster mixed with Space Mountain, but on TRON Lightcycles. It's incredibly fun, but we wouldn't recommend postponing your trip just for it.
As of right now, you can use 3 FastPass+ per day (and get "bonus" FastPass+ at in-park kiosks after you've used your initial allotment), which still leaves several headliners on this list that you'll have to do via standby. This is why arriving early is so important–the first hour the Magic Kingdom is open, you can efficiently experience attractions without lines.
Astro Orbitor (6/10) – Spinner ride similar to Dumbo. Elevated location makes this a fun diversion, especially at night if lines are shorter.
Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin (6/10) – Buzz Lightyear enlists your help in an interactive and competitive game-attraction to save the universe in this blast-em-up, ride-through adventure. It's like a ride-through video game, and is fun. Lines fluctuate greatly for this and can be very long, but generally aren't too bad at the end of the day. Don't use FastPass+ on it.
Mad Tea Party (5/10) – A fun and iconic diversion, although there's really nothing more to this experience than a similar one at a local fair.
Barnstormer (4.5/10) – A roller coaster only for kids who want to prove themselves on a coaster, but are too short for other coasters. Everyone else should avoid this due to long waits, short duration, and lackluster visuals. It has a 35″ height requirement.
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (6.5/10) – An okay dark ride, but there's a good chance kids will have more fun playing in the queue than on the actual ride. This is a popular attraction, but is neither worth a long wait time nor using FastPass+. Do it early or late in the day when lines are short, if at all.
Prince Charming Regal Carrousel (4.5) – Ordinary carousel. Okay at night if there's no wait and you have time to kill.
The Magic Carpets of Aladdin (3/10) – Yet another spinner. Do Astro Orbiter or Dumbo instead.
Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little Mermaid (7/10) – New Fantasyland's Little Mermaid dark ride is one of the most popular in the park, but much like Pooh's dark ride, it's neither worth the long wait times nor using FastPass+. There are a couple of cool scenes and Audio Animatronics, and the queue is really cool, but it misses our "best" list because of its wait times. If you can ride it with less than a 30 minute standby wait, definitely go for it.
Walt Disney World Railroad (7/10) – A relaxing train ride around the Magic Kingdom, albeit not with a ton to see. Needs some dinosaurs (doesn't everything?).
Note: the Walt Disney World Railroad is currently not operating during construction of TRON Lightcycle Power Run. It is expected to be closed through 2020.
Tomorrowland Speedway (4/10) – Kids might like it as it gives them a chance to drive; save for that, it's really not a good attraction.
Note: Tomorrowland Speedway is currently closed for TRON Lightcycle Power Run construction.
Liberty Square Riverboat (7/10) – Relaxing way to float around Frontierland, but like the Tomorrowland Transit Authority or the Walt Disney World Railroad, it's justa an ambiance ride.
Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse (7/10) – Fun area that can be quickly explored as a nice change of pace from doing rides. Never any waits, do it whenever.
Tom Sawyer Island (7/10) – An entire island play area for kids that harkens back to a bygone area. It's really well done, and a great place for kids to blow off energy. Adults may enjoy the tranquility of the island, too. Doesn't feel like a theme park.
Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress (7/10) – An Audio-Animatronics stage show with scenes in different eras showcasing technological innovations. This is one of our favorite attractions (a must-do for us) in the Magic Kingdom, so it pains me to put it on "the rest" list, but we enjoy it for nostalgia's sake. The last scene is woefully outdated and Carousel of Progress probably won't appeal to average guests–although older guests will likely enjoy the trip down memory lane.
This leaves out random pieces of entertainment, character meet & greets, and a few other seasonal offerings, but it should cover every attraction on a Magic Kingdom park map. If you have the time, try as much as you can, as you'll likely disagree with us on at least a few of these attractions.
If you are unsure of how to tackle planning for Walt Disney World, we recommend contacting a no fee "Authorized Disney Vacation Planner" (basically, Disney's term for a travel agent) to get a quote and to help you plan. They get their commission from Disney, so none of the authorized (key word) planners will charge you for booking their trip and helping. Here's one such recommended Authorized Disney Vacation Planner.

Which Magic Kingdom attractions are your favorites and which do you skip? Do you agree or disagree with our ratings? If you haven't visited Walt Disney World yet, which Magic Kingdom attractions are you most excited about? Hearing from you is half the fun, so please share your questions and thoughts in the comments!
I visited Disney World for the first time this January 2019. Magic Kingdom was our day 1 stop, and we spent over 12 hours there. Overall I loved it. I mostly agree with the ratings of attractions above for the attractions I did. Pirates of the Caribbean is so impressive – you must do this ride. And Haunted Mansion is great too. I was surprised by how much more I enjoyed them over almost any other ride attraction that day. Big Thunder Mountain, which we rode at night, was awesome; better in my opinion that Seven Dwarfs Mine Ride which we also rode at night. For such an in demand new ride, I was surprised at the lack of visible theming, except for the slow section in the middle. I also really liked PeopleMover and Mickey's PhilHarmagic a lot, and Once Upon a Time is almost as good as the Happily Ever After fireworks. I was a little disappointed in the parade, partly because I was expecting Maleficient the dragon but she did not make an appearance. Enchanted Tiki Room and Carousel of Progress are great if you like nostalgic technology. I personally found Jungle Cruise to be much less fun than anticipated. I am sure my skipper was part of it, but personally I think it would be more fun to just ride around with animal/jungle noises where appropriate and no narrative.
When I did carousel of progress May 2018. The last scene was updated for 2010s I think it was, 2000s Atleast. It had VR games and a so called smart house.
LOVE Aladdin's Flying Carpets! Spitting camel! Great view of the Bazaar! (And it doesn't make me nauseous, unlike AO).
I also love the corny Jungle Cruise, but can't sit through another corny Country Bears (which I remember fondly from my teen years). Go figure.
I and my husband have gone to wdw 10 times. Five when our children lived at home and once apiece after the were married and with their husband and children. I would love to stay at a hotel inside the park, but prices are so high i would have to win the lottery.
Rebecca, the all star hotels are very reasonable, 100. – -150 Per night. Don't forget too, by staying inside you get free transportation from the airport and throughout the parks. If I'm going to Disney, I only stay inside the park. Whole different experience that can't be replicated outside. You can sometimes find some deep discounts on the rest of the hotels as well, just keep an eye on their specials!
Your reviews of the rides are pretty much spot on in my opinion although i would give carousel of progress a 10, its one of my favorites and never a line. I have been going to Disney since it first opened in FL and will never get tired of it. I do want to say however, for all of you that have never been, that Disney can absolutely be overwhelming, especially with children. Don't try to see everything at once. I have to chuckle when i see screaming, crying children everywhere while at the happiest place on earth. The kids get overstimulated because the parents are trying so hard to give them the best experience ever. My suggestion – go the parks early (don't try to sleep in!) go back to your room at lunch and let the kids swim or nap for awhile and then return to the parks mid or late afternoon. (Hopefully your staying inside the park, can't beat that experience!) While in the parks, don't be afraid to ask someone standing or walking near you for directions. Almost everyone there has been to Disney before and can help. I see confusion with people even on the monorail! Really just ask and save yourself the stress. Its great that you are educating yourself on whats available, but even if you only see a small portion of Disney, you will love it! Just plan another trip some day to see the rest! We all manage to find a way to get ourselves back! I am returning again in a couple of months with a group of girls, i love Disney even more now that my kids are grown! | {

The collections you can't miss
By Ayesha Ali On Aug 26, 2018
The summer/resort 2018 edition of Lakmé Fashion Week starts tomorrow. Before your Instagram feed is assaulted with images from the many shows, here's an edit of the designer collection to watch out for.
Ikai by Ragini Ahuja
Inspired by the tales of displaced tribes that are searching for a cultural identity and are living as refugees, Ragini Ahuja's collection captures the sentiments of the free spirited. The collection, titled 'Free Spirits', features relaxed silhouettes and tailored separates in tones of ivory, navy, black and red in a line that celebrates self-expression.
Label Ritu Kumar
A blend of street and rap culture is the mood for Ritu Kumar's collection for spring/summer 2018, which features asymmetric silhouettes, gemstone detailing and long, frilled dresses. The colour palette will be ruled by blacks, blues and metallics, with a touch of baby pink and ochre.
Veteran designer Anita Dongre will be closing the first day of Lakmé Fashion Week with her collection titled 'Songs of Summer'. Capturing the essence of summer, the collection is packed with skirts, jumpsuits, wrap tops, classic lehengas and draped saris in lightweight handwoven silks and cotton fabrics, with the label's signature gota patti detailing on Indian ethnic silhouettes. With this line, the designer aims to cater to the needs of contemporary brides.
Bloni
Adding to the growing movement of designers creating clothing supporting causes, designer Akshat Bansal's collection 'Mourning of the Marine Life' draws focus on the plight of our oceans and destruction of marine life. "The bereaving marine life calls for help and it is time, we hear its voice, before it is extinguished under wraps of plastic. It is this agonising moment of our progress in science yet a social regress that my collection encapsulates. The destruction of marine life reflective in the deconstructive mix of linens, delicate Japanese lace and sustainable fabrics that are 100 per cent regenerated from marine plastic waste," he says the designer. The lineup will comprise of androgynous silhouettes in tie and dye.
AMOH by Jade
AMOH by Jade's collection's collection for spring/summer 2018 draws inspiration from the royal descendants of the mountain god, Niyam Raja. The lineup features lightweight silhouettes in malmal, khadi, variety of cotton, chanderis and fine silks that are perfect for a summer wardrobe.

Occasion wear designer duo Falguni and Shane Peacock are normally associated with sparkling lehengas and floor-grazing gowns. This season, the label will be launching their debut menswear collection. "After years of wishful thinking, negotiations and a decision we decided that our brand will finally launch our first ever menswear line at Lakmé Fashion Week. The collection titled 'Louche' focuses on relaxed suiting in light greys, pastel pinks, blues and blacks featuring leather jackets, tight trousers, high shine pompadours, fur collared jackets, epsom coats in cashmere and embroidered velvet slippers," Falguni Peacock tells us.
Master couturier Tarun Tahiliani has been dedicated to creating occasion wear that does not weigh down brides. "For some time now, since we did our Tarakanna collection, which meant stardust, I have been thinking about fashion's role, especially in evening wear and bridal and how it has failed the modern Indian bride because the clothes are so heavy and stiff, that they are almost worn like torture costumes, never to be looked at or repeated again," the designer explains. The result is a ready to wear collection inspired by the Milky Way, resplendent with Swarovski crystals, and promises ease and effortlessness to the wearer.
The inspiration for Anjali Patel Mehta of Verandah's cruise collection comes from the renegade tiger of Ranthambore named 'Cowboy Tiger', also known as T91. Patel Mehta has dedicated 10 per cent of the proceeds of the global profits of the sales of collection to the cause of rescuing T91. The collection will feature flowy dresses, macramé jackets and kaftans. The designer will also be introducing menswear this season.
Shantanu & Nikhil
Designer duo Shantanu & Nikhil's collection titled 'Tribe – The India Story' draws references from the tribes of Rajasthan. The label aims to promote gender-neutrality with clothing featuring pleating, bold colour blocking and aged textures.
Payal Singhal is best known for her modern take on Indian ethnic wear. Her new collection 'Saira', traces the rise of Islamic art on textiles and architecture in various parts of the world like Turkey, Morocco, Persia, Mughal India and Iran. The collection features luxurious silks, jamavars and brocades, accentuated with delicate organzas and tulle with traditional embroideries like kasav, mukaish, fardi and zardosi.
Anamika Khanna is the chosen designer for the Lakmé Absolute Grand Finale. Drawing inspiration from the new collection of nudes from Lakmé, the Khanna's lineup rests on the idea of individuality. "We started with the colour palette by Lakmé and it struck me to make a collection that is diverse in its own nature. I've been inspired by the thought process of millennials who are not bothered by social norms and literally wear their attitude on their sleeves. The collection is an amalgamation of both," says Khanna.

I created the identity for Genius Bookings, that specializes in trance/dance artists. The green block shows an abstract form of two people sitting across from each other at a table (the green block) while their speech-bubbles form the G and B of Genius Bookings, representing a booking-deal being made. This form became the basis of a recurring pattern that was used heavily in promotion and, for instance, on the back of the business cards.
More recently the website has had a complete visual upgrade, leaving the clutter behind and making way for a very clean and minimal design. | {

Bedfordshire Schools Team Win England Final
An outstanding performance from Vandyke Upper School at Woodhall Spa clinched the 2018 NASUWT England Schools Team Championship title by 3 clear points from Gravesend GS, Kent. Leading the way were Ed Stephenson (38 pts) and Andres Valentine (38 pts) with Brandon Waddington (30 pts) making the discard contribution as part of the team. All 3 players are Leighton Buzzard GC juniors, with Ed finishing 2nd overall and Andres 3rd on countback, both 2 points behind the individual leader. Vandyke had qualified to represent Bedfordshire as County Schools Scratch Champions. Consistent scoring by all three boys proved to be crucial in difficult, firm ground conditions and hot weather. Six birdies ( 4 for Ed and 2 for Andres) including one for Andres at the last brought the trophy home after a long wait as they were amongst the early starters.
Bedfordshire Schools other win came in 2012 when Bedford Modern won the title as Vandyke became the 18th National Schools title holders over 35 other County Champion teams. Bedfordshire are only the third County to take the title more than once since the event started 2005. | {

As many of you are aware, recent events have changed the national timeline for switching to lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerants. Below is a brief recap, new regulations in California for 2019 and beyond, proposed regulations from other states, and what our industry is doing moving forward.
In 2015, the EPA issued a rule that restricted manufacturers from making certain products that contain hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), greenhouse gases known to create climate change. The EPA's Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Rules 20 and 21 listed various HFCs and HFC-containing blends that were previously listed as acceptable alternatives that were then listed as unacceptable in various end-uses. Phase-out dates to lower GWP acceptable alternative refrigerants ranged from 2016 to 2020.
The August 2017 ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit halted this phasedown. The ruling struck down an executive order that was part of President Barack Obama's 2013 Climate Action Plan, which had indicated the EPA would use its authority through the SNAP program of Section 612 to reduce HFC emissions. The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), Honeywell International, Inc. and Chemours Company, FC, LLC intervened for the EPA and filed an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The EPA is considering a new policy on the use of HFCs. The EPA moved forward with notice-and-comment rule making this past Spring and held a broad stakeholder meeting in May and 7 sector-specific workshops in June and July. We may see a proposed rule in 2019. In response to the court's decision and lack of EPA guidance, several states are moving forward with their own laws to reduce HFCs.
California is leading the nation on limiting powerful climate-changing chemicals. On March 23, 2018, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) adopted regulation prohibiting the use of specific refrigerants. The action was taken to preserve and continue in California some of the EPA's SNAP rules to help meet California's emission reduction goals for HFCs. The regulation prohibits certain high GWP HFCs in retrofit and new refrigeration equipment and foam and continues SNAP rules for Supermarket (retail food) refrigeration, remote condensing units, stand-alone (self-contained) units, refrigerated vending machines, and 5 of 17 foam end-use sectors. Also under the new regulations, manufacturers are responsible for a disclosure statement that must certify the product uses only complaint refrigerants or foam expansion agents. Product compliancerequirements for January 1, 2019, apply to the manufacturer.
On September 13, 2018, California Governor, Jerry Brown, signed into law Senate Bill 1013, the "California Cooling Act." This bill adopted the EPA's SNAP Rules 20 and 21 into state law, established an incentive program for low GWP refrigerants, and added chillers, residential refrigerator-freezers, 12 of 17 foam end-use sectors and aerosol propellants not previously covered under the CARB regulations (see Table 1).
The AHRI, NRDC, and 8 industry companies submitted a letter to CARB on Sept. 14, 2018, offering support of limiting HFCs, and asked CARB to modify some regulations (see below) to allow sufficient time for industry adoption of the new rules and recommended some additional measures (see AHRI, NRDC et. al letter to CARB under "Resources").
No sales or installation of new systems containing a refrigerant with a GWP of 150 or greater for systems with a refrigerant charge of ≥ 50 lbs.
Other states are moving forward to pass their own regulations as well. The United States Climate Alliance (USCA) is a bipartisan coalition of governors committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions consistent with the goals of the Paris Agreement. USCA members include California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, and Washington.
The USCA is pushing for a global response to climate change to drastically reduce short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs), which include methane, HFCs, and black carbon (soot). On June 1, 2018, the USCA issued a SLCP challenge to comprehensively address SLCP emissions as a critical component of meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement, and developed a roadmap offering a menu of options supporting ambitious goals to drive down SLCPs, and offering examples of leadership already demonstrated by states.
January 1, 2020 – Supermarket systems, remote condensing units, stand-alone units, vending machines.
January 1, 2021 – Household refrigerators and freezers, refrigerated food processing and dispensing equipment.
January 1, 2023 – Cold storage warehouses.
The Maryland Department of the Environment issued a press release on September 11, 2018, stating it intends to develop regulations similar to those in development in California, which would phase out the use of certain HFCs in foam products and in refrigeration equipment in retail establishments, such as supermarkets. Maryland is joining other USCA states in moving to phase out the use of HFCs. This action will help Maryland meet its requirements under the state's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Act.
Connecticut Governor, Daniel Malloy, announced on September 13, 2018, that he directed the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) to develop regulations that will phase out the use of HFCs. Over the next few months, DEEP will begin the rulemaking process to develop regulations to adopt the 2015 and 2016 changes to the EPA's SNAP policy.
In the coming months, we anticipate other states in the USCA to announce their own policies on the reduction of HFCs. While the EPA's policies are in flux, it's clear that many states, our industry, and other countries are determined to phase down the use of HFCs. As mentioned previously, the AHRI is a strong proponent of adopting the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol.
Heat Transfer Products Group continues to move forward with designing products that can be used with low GWP alternatives. We recommend that our customers continue working towards compliance with the SNAP 20 and 21 regulations and check with their state government on new HFC regulations.
We'll keep you informed of future EPA and state regulations as those are made public. If you have questions, please contact your local Russell, Witt, Kramer or ColdZone brand sales representative.

Sycamore Twp. father suing Pentagon, says son deserves Purple Heart
Author: Evan Millward / Source: WCPO
SYCAMORE TOWNSHIP, Ohio — A local father is suing the Pentagon, saying his son — who died by suicide in 2013 — deserves a Purple Heart.
Howard Berry, father of Sgt. Joshua Berry, says his son deserves a Purple Heart "for injuries he sustained in the international terrorist attack at Fort Hood," according to the lawsuit.
Howard Berry, who lives in Sycamore Township, is requesting judicial review of the agency who denied his son a Purple Heart — namely, Ryan McCarthy, acting secretary of the U.S. Army, and James Mattis, secretary of defense.
Berry was stationed in Fort Hood when U.S. Army Major Nidal Hasan opened fire and killed 13 people on Nov. 9, 2009. Berry was one of 30 people injured in the shooting.
Berry's shoulder was dislocated in the shooting when he dove for cover, according to the lawsuit. The shooting was classified as "attempted murder" by the Texas Rangers and the FBI.
The injury was classified as "sustained in the line of duty," the lawsuit said. Berry's shoulder was surgically repaired.
In May 2011, Berry was discharged due to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
In Feb. 2013, Berry killed himself in Sycamore Township.
The lawsuit said the circumstances of the shooting match the qualifications to be awarded a Purple Heart. Specifically, Joshua Berry was a member of the armed sources when he was injured, a documented wound caused by an "outside force or agent" and the wound…

Emerging Adolescence and the Church
Dr. Darrell Bock, Executive Director of Cultural Engagement and Senior Research Professor of New Testament Studies, along with Dr. Jay Sedwick, Professor of Educational Ministries and Leadership, and Mark Matlock, President of Youth Specialties and Wisdom Works Ministries, help define emerging or extended adolescence, and how this sociological shift impacts ministry.
How adjustment from adolescent life to family life has shifted from the late teens to later in life
The difference between emerging adulthood and extended adolescence
How has the Church reacted to this phenomenon of shifted adolescence?
How Youth Specialties helps the Church minister to those in this stage of life.
The impact that this shift of adolescence plays in the way one teaches Christian education in the local church
The impact over-emphasizing families in the local church has had on those who do not come from the "ideal" family.
How does the local church balance the preferences of older and younger generations?
The challenges and advantages of the "fluidity" of individuals who float back and forth between congregations.
How does a local church avoid being viewed as just another institution of which one is a part?
Understanding the three phases of adolescence.
All right, well, welcome to our final cultural engagement chapel of the semester. I always know I'm at a seminary when we pray not just for hope, but we pray for eschatological hope.
So, it's – you know, I'm still contemplating that. Anyway, our topic today – actually, we're gonna work to define it. We're gonna discuss a category of sociology that impacts the Church that we don't think about that much. How many of you know what adolescence is? Okay, all right. [Laughs] It's painful, I know. That's right.
So, how many of you know that that word actually is a fairly recent word in the vocabulary of the English language? Anyone know the date that it was spawned? Well, of course you know, okay. 1904. M-kay?
Mark Matlock
He said 1910. So, wrong a few years.
So, my guests today are Mark Matlock, who is with Youth Specialties, and, of course, you all know Jay Sedwick who dressed up for the occasion. I really appreciate that. And we're gonna discuss this category that isn't just adolescence, it's – and we're gonna actually talk about this difference, what's sometimes called extended adolescence, and sometimes called emerging adolescence.
And here's what's happened to the term; it's grown. If you think of adolescence, you normally think of the teenage years. My definition of a teenager, from a parental point of view is is that you know your kids hit the teenage years when you go from being the greatest person that's ever walked the Earth as a parent, to dropping completely off the ranking list, somewhere as the child enters a black hole.
And then, somewhere in the 20s, they emerge on the other end, and you regain some status, but you never quite get up to where you were. And when that happens, they start asking you questions again and asking you for advice. You should just be grateful and not ask how it happened; just be grateful to God that they've emerged from the black hole.
So, that's – we tend to think of adolescence as the teen years. But what's happened sociologically is that's all changed. So, Mark, why don't you explain to us what the change is and why we're talking about either emerging or extended adolescence?
Yeah. The founder of Youth Specialties is Wayne Rice – well, co-founder. He would always say that in the teen years, your children fire you as parents, and then they hire you back as consultants when they graduate from college.
And so, that's kind of a similar picture there. Well, what seems to be happening is that we know that, you know, from a – that we look at adolescence as biology, sociologically, and then developmentally. There's all these different things going on. And the biology of adolescence and puberty is actually going lower, where we're seeing teens going through puberty at 10 or 11.
Jay Sedwick
Did you catch his voice cracked when he said puberty?
Yeah, I did.
I'm still hoping. Maybe this is the year. And the – but now what we're seeing is is that it used to be that somewhere around 16 to 18, we saw people coming out of that phase of life and going into maturity and becoming more like an adult. And this is why, when you watch old movies, sometimes you're shocked at, "They're teenagers? They're acting like adults." Well, because sociologically, they were coming into that at that time.
Now what we're seeing is that people are staying into adolescence or adolescent-like behavior into their 20s. Some sociologists even say early 30s. So, that's given rise to this thing as this extended adolescence or as emerging adulthood. And there's a lot of different viewpoints on that.
So, we're talking about the age group really between say 13-ish and really 34. And part of the – part of the – part – yeah, you see –
You can be a youth minister for life.
We're trying to keep you young. Okay? So – and really, part of it is is this – at what point does a person emerge from their education, establish themselves in a job, establish themselves as starting a family? And all that is getting stretched out. And that all has implications for the Church.
So, let's talk about the terminology first, and then we'll talk about the implications for the Church. Terminology. As you said, you talked about – we talked about emerging – what? – emerging adulthood, is that the phrase that you used? – versus extended adolescence.
So, let's talk about the difference between those two terms and what they communicate.
Yeah, so, when we're looking at that age range, when we look at the percentage of people who completed a major life transition by 30 – so, when we say that, we're talking about leaving home, finishing school/college, financially independent, getting married and having a child.
When we look at those life stages, in 1960, 77 percent of women and 65 percent of men had achieved those life stages by the age of 30. Today we're looking at 46 percent of women and 31 percent of men. So, this is a phenomenon. This is not a small thing or an idea that somebody cooked up to sell articles or a book; this is a reality that we're facing.
And so, when we're looking at that emerging adulthood and the extended adolescence, the question is are we elongating the teen years, or are we putting something new, a new stage in between actually reaching those life stages of adulthood in the 30s? And there is debate out there. People that typically are baby boomers and older tend to look at it as extended adolescence, "Why can't these people just grow up?"
Yeah, we're paying for it.
Yeah, yeah. "I throw my kids out; they come back." The boomerang generation they're called. Right?
That's right.
And then you've got another group of sociologists that are looking at this, going, "Wait a minute. Look at everything that's changing in the world." Nothing that used to stay conventional, that said conventional, stable life is valid anymore. The 30-year mortgage may be the kiss of death to this coming generation.
So, you know, signing onto a big corporation doesn't mean you're gonna retire in that corporation. So, there's nothing quite the same as it was several decades ago. And so, we have this group of people that are trying to figure out, "What does it mean to be stable?"
And so, there's a group of sociologists, led by a guy named Jeff Arnett, who basically coined the term emerging adulthood, and actually say, "This is a whole new category of development; it's not adolescence. So, it's not extending. But it's not adulthood either; it's something before that."
Well, okay. So, the Church deals with this. And here's my portrait of what happens in the Church world. We get the graduating senior from high school. We send them off to college. We say, "Sayonara, and hope you hook up somewhere down the road with another church."
Careful with that term.
I know; I know; I know; I know.
"Hope you connect with another church down the road."
That's better.
"Okay? And in the midst of – in the midst of doing this, we wish you well." But what's happening when that happens?
Well, a lot of the churches are not paying attention to this particular phenomenon. They, in many ways, have programmed and over programmed for their youth, for their teenagers up through their graduation from high school.
And for the most part, they don't have the money or aren't paying enough attention to the students as they graduate from high school and the transition that they go through when the finish high school and go off to college or go off to a college education or go off to a job kind of situation.
And they don't have the money to hire somebody to work with that age. And these teenagers who have been basically spoon fed an awful lot of activity and an awful lot of attention, all of a sudden the graduate, and we kinda kick 'em out the door and hope that they have a great life.
There's no activity, and there's no attention.
Yeah. And, "Wait a minute, what happened? All this attention, all these things that were going on for me, and it was all about me in so many ways, and now I'm kind of left to figure it out on my own and try to navigate this new time of life."
The parents and the parental involvement and influence are oftentimes nowhere near as strong as they were, because many of these students will now leave if they go to college. And mom isn't telling them to get up in up in the morning, not helping them get dressed, if they're even still doing that. And they've got to make a lot of decisions on their own. They're all of a sudden responsible, or supposed to be responsible, for things not happening.
And our church is not really giving the kind of attention that I believe this particular age group needs. We spend a lot of time with the transition, are focusing on the transition from elementary school to the adolescent years or to youth ministry. And most churches will spend a lot of time programming that transition, making sure we capture these young preteens into some sort of a program ministry in the church.
But for whatever reason, there's been very little attention given to the transition from 12th grade, when they graduate from high school, and on into the great unknown. And again, back to the money thing, most churches, it's a luxury to have a college minister. It's a luxury to have a young adult minister. You have to be pretty large, in terms of the church itself, and you have to have a focused attention to this age group to even bother hiring somebody to do this.
And so, it's kind of left in a nebulous stage of not really paying attention to it.
And here's the impact, and I'll just describe this – and by the way, be prepared to ask questions, 'cause I'm gonna turn to questions here in a second. The impact of this, in contrast to what it used to be, is it used to graduate, go to college, get married fairly young, have a child at a fairly young age, and in that process, when the parents were thinking about, "How are we gonna raise our kids," that would sometimes pull them back into the church setting.
What's happening with the elongation is is that the adult habits are being established and have been so deeply established that by the time they get married and have the child, they're not asking the question of what I'm gonna do with my kid with quite the intensity that they used to, 'cause they've developed their adult lifestyle in the meantime, and they've determined, in an alternative way – and we're leaking a generation, if I can say it that way.
Well, it used to be that attending church was evidence of a conventional life. But now a conventional life is suicide. Right? There's – that's death to this generation. And if we believe that the Gospel attaches itself to the culture, transforms it from the inside out, a lot of our churches have become social expressions of what once worked. But we've gone through so much deep, structural change globally, within our own country, the Church has not kept pace with being responsive to it. Even the idea of just, "Well, we need to hire a college person," that's not right either. There's a whole new understanding of ecclesiology in the way that it plays itself out and how we support people as they're moving forward.
So, it's re-identifying what we are as a church community, a faith community, that I think is at risk, too. It's not just about hiring a position or coming up with a good program. Those have been some of the solves that people have tried to put out there, but that's like putting Band-Aids on a gunshot – you know, on a machine gun wound or even worse, an amputation. It's not going to work, because there's so much change that's happened on a deep level, the old methods for fixing them aren't going to work either.
So, what is Youth Specialties working on to try and help with this? I mean what are the ways that we can move towards dealing with what is really not just a structural problem, but a major sociological phase that the Church is almost – the way it's structured now is it doesn't seem to be connecting at all with what's going on.
I think one of the biggest things that we've been behind is publishing a series of books called Sticky Faith by Kara Powell out of Fuller Seminary. And what she's been doing is a lot of research on practice on how we become more intergenerational in the way that we're doing things. And I think that's a first step toward reimagining what church community is. But there's also a lot of things that need to be thought of in terms of vocation. A lot of us that are ministers that are ordained, we received a calling maybe in high school or college. We pursued an education around that. We went n vocationally to that.
We haven't had a lot of other work experience, vocational experience. As a result, our congregants don't often come to us asking for vocational advice. But I think that we do have to have a vocational imagination about how we're helping people think about their platforms. I mean we're not – if you've ever filled out something online, and it asks you, "What field are you in?" Right? There's no, "I'm a minister; I'm a pastor; I'm in the Church." Maybe nonprofit is like the best that we can get, or education.
Well, that's actually true. You know, it is a nonprofit occupation.
Yeah, but how general can you get? Right?
And when you go to the dropdown box, there's Mr.; there's Mrs.; there's Dr. There's never Rev. You know? And so, it's like we're not even being tracked by the world – right? – as being a significant market segment.
So, I'm sitting there going, "How are we leveraging people's vocations and helping them understand?" And we tell 'em, "Hey we want you to live 24/7 for God, 'cause we have a generation that wants to do that. We have a generation that's raising their hand, going, "Yes, but I don't think that that means showing up to church every time there's a program. Somehow I think that means being outside the walls of the church and making an engagement."
And so, we have to figure out how we create communities and youth ministries that are also helping our teenagers have an imagination for how God wants to be involved in the redemptive work of the Church through their vocational abilities as well.
So, Jay, how does this impact the way you think about teaching and Christian education, etcetera? What things are you all wrestling with as you try and prepare people for this shift that we are experiencing?
And do come forward, if you have questions. So, I'm gonna turn to questions pretty quickly. So, if you have a question, feel free to step to the mike.
Well, just some basic things. We obviously are talking about, in my classes, about a disciple – more of a discipleship model of doing youth ministry rather than an entertainment or attractional model, helping our youth ministers that are going out of here think about the fact that, what Mark said, intergenerational connection is so important.
So many of our young people, their only real access to any kind of advice or help is the other stupid teenager that's sitting beside them. And that's a terrible place to go for an answer to a difficult life question.
I've never seen a blurb that said, "Other stupid teenager."
Well, you want to – yeah.
But it's the truth.
It's the truth, that's right.
You know, it's like the greatest pooling of ignorance, the tenth-graders, all getting together. You know? And so, we've got to work on intergenerational connection. We've got to have a broad range of adult leaders and a broad range of people, within the Church, working together to have impact.
The best way to learn how to live your life – in my opinion, one of the best ways to learn how to live your life is t watch other believers who are further down the road than you are, and who have done good things, have made good decisions, who are healthy and adjusted. I want to see what they're doing. The model – it's a discipleship model; it's what we see in Scripture, I believe.
And so, trying to help the students understand that that's gotta be an integral part of what they do. They've got to think longer term. If a church does not have anything at all, not even thinking about this college age or this young adult, this emerging adult, whatever we want to call it, I encourage my youth ministry students to expand their understanding of what their job really is and to approach the church and say, "Hey, I want to pay attention to not just the kids when they get to 12th grade and are gone. How about letting me oversee this other this other section of the lifespan development that we're talking about so that there's a little bit more connection between when they graduate and when they go off into the great young adult unknown.
And the potential for this is huge, because with all the technology that we have, the ability to stay connected to someone, even though they may not be in geographic proximity, actually does exist. And so, there's no reason not to think about how to pursue that.
I would also add, and I think you would agree with me, Jay, that it's not just about the old people in the Church helping the young people out. We're in an era of reverse mentoring, where the older generations needs to also learn from the younger generation.
Mm-hmm.
And when you – when we look at teenagers, in every aspect of society, they're not a child; they're not yet an adult. They're kind of "nons." And so, they create their own little world and tribe and infrastructure and ecology.
And as the Church, we have to think about how we view ourselves as a church. We look at these teenagers, and we put them off to the side. They're like a little church within a church. Are we inviting them into the imagination of what the body of Christ is? If we really believe that the body is distinctly made of individual parts, but the parts are absolutely interdependent on one another, we need to be asking these teenagers – not saying that the stupid other one – I know you don't really mean that –
Right, right, no I don't.
But to go to them and say, "We need your questions. We need your imagination in how we are being the body of Christ in this world. You are experiencing this in a really different way. How do we as a church learn from you so that we don't become dogmatic, we don't become traditional?"
And we always use teenagers to be slave labor, to pull weeds, to paint things in the church, to serve the old people at a banquet. You know? And hey, we're all part of the body of Christ, and we're engaging together, but are we inviting them to be co-conspirators in this Gospel work as the Church? Because we have teenagers that want that. And we're finding that teenagers that are invited into that kind of an imagination. They stay with the Church, and they're going to do incredible things.
And so, we have to elevate. The Church is the only institution I know of that says, "You, as a member of the body of Christ, have equal importance to its function, just because you're here and the Holy Spirit resides inside of you." No other institution looks at teenagers that way. As a Church – and we don't, functionally, but we should theologically realize, "Hey, these – they're equal parts of the Church. How are they vital to our existence?" If we don't think they're vital to it, we need to think our ecclesiology over again.
The issue of value is what he's talking about in many ways. Adolescence has, unfortunately, devalued teenagers for such a long time. We haven't. In fact, one of the things I talk to my classes is the fact that these young people have so much potential, and they have so much ability, that for a large part of our population, our segment of our population, say, "No, they're – they kinda need to sit on the sidelines until they grow up, until they figure these things out."
There's a book by Alvin Reid, Raising the Bar. It's an interesting book that he wrote, basically saying, "You know, teenagers are gonna rise to the bar that you set. And if you think that they're a bunch of stupid tenth-graders, they're gonna act like stupid tenth-graders. But if you raise the bar and challenge them to step up, they're capable of so much more in terms of even their own maturity, their own understanding.
And so, I do absolutely agree with Mark that the more we open the doors and invite them to be a part of what we're doing, the more stick – that's Sticky Faith – the more stick they'll have in staying with the Church.
Okay, I have someone who's ready to ask a question. Go for it.
How do you test? Test, one, two, one, two. There we go. I just had a question – actually two questions about just maturity as an evangelical culture. Do we – I mean it seems like we're valuing a younger culture over an older culture. And is that contributing to this whole issue of saying, "Well, you don't have to be old yet. You can still hang onto this younger, more attractive life, 'cause that's better."
And then my other question is, with this hammering, basically, generation, and with divorce rates what they are, is the solution a program rather than family training to help foster maturity in this generation? Thank you.
Two questions. Let's deal with the family one first, because I think that that's an interesting question; it's actually something that we did talk about when we did the podcast, which is that most church structures assume a family structure. And that actually cuts out a significant portion of people that are functioning in our society, 'cause they don't come from whole family structures.
So, let's talk about that one a little bit, the impact of the way in which the breakup of the family impacts the Church and how the Church deals with it.
Well, I know, for myself, I get very concerned right now, seeing a lot of churches moving toward these family-oriented ministry models. And it sounds – you know, "What? How could you be against that?" But I think that the Church is actually losing its identity as the body of Christ by putting so much emphasis on moms and dads. To me, the Church, the body of Christ, is called to make disciples in the world, and parents that are a part of the Church have special responsibilities as far as that's concern.
But we have so many teenagers in our world who do not have parents that are participating in the Church, that are not engaged in church. If everything's focusing on the family in the Church, then how in the world does a student who comes from a blended family or family that isn't operating in that kind of a dynamic, how are they getting what they need spiritually, and how can they even come into contact with a church that's in that situation?
So, I think there's some things where our consumeristic models of the Church are like, "Hey, serving families, good thing when, but is it really moving and advancing the Great Commission and making disciples and reaching teenagers?"
Okay, now, the second question's an interesting one, too, and that is, "So, how do we balance this older generation/younger generation problem, particularly given the fact that what sociology is also telling us is the attitudes of the two groups and the preferences of the two groups are so different. So, the way you see it oftentimes in the Church is even in the selection of music in a worship service in terms of how you communicate that you're inclusive, if you want to use that word, by even the music that you choose to worship by. How do you deal with that and negotiate with that issue?
I think it's all about money. And it's an interesting or simple answer. But there's so much money being spent; it's kind of a reflection of our culture. So much money being spent on the youngest and younger generation. So much of our economy, especially in the entertainment world, is centered around trying to get the dollar out of the pocket of the young person. They are a lot easier to get the money from.
And so much of our marketing and the TV programs and the music and the movies and everything that – you know, when you hear about the ratings – the key ratings on television, it's that coveted market of 18 to 35 or whatever. That's what they're really looking for.
So, there's – I think it's somewhat of a snowball situation, where there's so much emphasis placed on that. And I think the older generation kinda gets lost in that situation. They don't feel like the culture is trying to meet their needs and trying to bring things to them. So, there is a huge – I think a huge disconnect and a controversy between the two.
Bringing them together –
The older generations give money.
The younger generations will show up because it appeals to them, but they don't necessarily give.
Right, right. And a little sidelight on it is the whole concept of stewardship. Churches are facing real problems right now with financially being viable because the younger generation, even if they'd been taught some stewardship concepts, they're holding onto their money for their own benefit. They're not in a situation where they want to feel like or think like they should be giving to the Church and supporting the Church.
So, we've got the older generation really with most of the wealth that they've maintained that they've handled well and that they've saved for. They're the ones that are supporting most of the programming, and yet the young people aren't stepping up to do that. It's gonna be n interesting thing to see how that demographic alters the way the Church operates.
Let me flip the question, 'cause I'm involved with the church that I've actually – the church that I've been involved with here in Dallas, I've been involved with since I was a student at seminary. And I've watched that congregation grow older. So much so that the conversation that we've had in our own elder board has been – we're a very popular church for the over-50s, but what does that mean for us in 20 years?
And so, when you think through that problem, if an older generation hangs onto churches they like and are used to it, the risk is, on the backend, that they don't connect with their kids that are coming through, etcetera, and they go elsewhere. And they don't end up functioning.
So, how do you – how do you work to create a balance between what the older generation – and after all, the older generation is the one that's contributing; they're responsible for the budget of the church, etcetera; their preferences speak with their dollars in some ways – how do you reverse that trend? How do you create a leadership that is sensitive to that transition?
You write a book about it and make a lot of money.
I think one of the challenges is the church building. They take a lot of money. And you have a generation who's thinking a lot differently about money and brick and mortar and funding, of crowd sourcing and things like that.
So, it will be interesting to see what generation steps up to say, "Hey, I want to pay for the cracks in the parking lot," because there's – I don't think that's an exciting thing to give money to, when I can go and participate in these other things that feel like they're meeting more direct needs.
So, I think there are gonna be some real interesting questions to come up around what the real costs of running a church are related to what people are willing to contribute to –
And what the values are that are reflected in those choices.
And what the values are, yeah. And that's one of those deep structure shifts that's going to – that's going to happen as this generation continues to emerge and takes on those roles.
That's a great characteristic of the millennial generation, just throwing that term out for the first time, but is that they are altruistic. They want to get involved in something that really makes a difference. They want to do something where they can see benefit; they can see results; makes a change in a person's life. And repainting the sanctuary or paving the parking lot doesn't carry the kind of weight that the young people today are really looking for.
So, I agree that what Mark said is an important thing. Having the kinds of things in your church that really inspire these young people to get involved personally is really gonna make a difference.
We're all willing to pay for infrastructure and capacity building when the payoff of impact is on the front end. It's just that now it seems like so much of the focus is on, "We need a new HVAC unit. We need –" You know?
And you're sitting there going, "Wait a minute. What's the bigger thing that we're a part of that that HVAC unit helps accomplish?"
So, there's a – it's a big story telling.
Yeah, I think this is a difficult problem, and it's a difficult problem to negotiate and to negotiate well. And if you don't have a good conversation happening within your community, across the generations, you're not gonna negotiate it. I mean there's just no way.
Over here a question.
Yeah, I'm actually a college pastor in North Plano, and so, I'm in this every day. But one of the things that I've noticed in this generation as well is that – it's maybe a good thing and a bad thing, but they – the college students that I minister with, they have a much bigger picture of the Church. So, it's hard for them to just view Chase Oaks Church, where I am – like they don't see themselves as an institutional member of that church. And it's a very much more of a fluid kind of approach to church.
And so, my question is how much do you think – you know, is that maybe a positive thing and maybe starting a trend of just – of churches in general being more open to working together in this bigger image that we – it's not just my church and what I've – my agenda, my programs, or do you see that as maybe a negative trend and like really not having that commitment and that accountability to that local body of believer? Does that make sense?
Yeah, yeah. Real quick, it depends on who you ask. If you ask the senior pastor of a particular church, he's probably gonna be upset that that young person would be thinking about going to a conference with a different church or supporting some other things.
I like to call this the difference between a kingdom mentality and a fiefdom mentality. If you have a kingdom mentality, you're more Church universal. You're thinking about the body of Christ, as we've talked about, and the work of evangelism and discipleship and all of us being in this together, regardless of the name of the church that you go to or the location, versus a fiefdom mentality, which is our little enclave of people, and we've got it all right, and we've got it figured out. And if you go to another church, you've betrayed someone or something.
So, in that regard, I think it's positive that the young people are willing to see beyond a particular church building or church congregation and understand that we have brothers and sisters in Christ in so many different places and in different traditions, in many ways, and that we have to work together if we're gonna get the job of evangelism and discipleship done.
And at the same time, you have more of a desire for real community and connection and deeper relationships with people. The problem is is that we're still doing some programmatic type of things for this thing. So, it's literally like buying a ticket to something or saying, "This is just part of my identity and who I am. I go to this church on this Wednesday, and this da-da-da." But where do you find real community, and where are we holding people accountable to being in a real community?
And I think when you saw a lot of churches kind of do away with things like church discipline and things like that, you saw a community start to deteriorate. And it's happened in just about every aspect of our society; it's happened in the Church as well. People like bigger churches because, "I'm more anonymous. So, if I'm more anonymous, I'm less accountable; I'm not part of that community." Yet there is this huge longing by this generation for real community.
So, there's an opportunity for the Church to kind of do a course correct and figure out, "What does real community look like? And what does it –" you know, membership has its privileges, so to speak, but not in that kind of a concept but, "– what does it really mean to be a part of this?"
Okay, next question.
Yeah, my question, at the risk of – hopefully I don't sound to critical in this, but do you think part of the problem is for the evangelical church that it's sort of lost some of its distinctiveness in what it means to practice church here in the world.
So, what, essentially, it seems like we're beginning to see is more of like a Christianized school model to church, to where you show up to church in a sense that it's almost – you know, you're there to learn, and you're there to be with people, and you're there to grow.
And so, for the younger generation, when they graduate high school, it's almost this feeling of they graduate church. There's nothing – there's nothing distinctive about going to church on a Sunday morning that sets you apart from other institutions. That is, you're there to worship the Lord, and you're there to enter into His presence. Yeah, I don't know; that's a thought that's been running through my mind.
No, I think that's a great observation, and I think you're right. Being a part of a church is marginally better than giving to Starbucks and what they're doing. You know what I mean?
Where is the difference that Jesus really makes? Right? Where is the power difference? I think this generation is asking – "On whose authority," is the one question they're asking. And then the second question is, "Where is the power?" I think those are the two invisible questions that they're looking at everything from is, "If this church really is who they say they are, where is this distinctive that being a part of Jesus makes such a big difference?"
And I think the crisis of Evangelicalism today is that there's an emphasis on being right more than – I mean – yeah, being right rather than doing what is right. And there's so much emphasis on belief and right thinking, but they're going, "Where is the effect? Where is that hands and feet that make the difference in life?"
And I think that's one of the greatest crisis in Evangelicalism right now, among a bunch of other things, including political affiliations.
And that – and that – and the thing that we were talking about earlier, were they – you have these teenagers who are getting all this attention when they're in high school, and then their graduation day comes, and then all of a sudden, the church opts out of their life, if I can say it that way, because they're no longer in the 12th-grade program, is actually a manifestation, institutionally, what he just described, which is you treat the students going through as if they're – I'm gonna say it vividly – as if they're a commodity, and once the commodity hits the finish line, I release them.
And a person who's in the midst of that says, "Where the relationship that's supposed to be so central to what's going – it shouldn't make any difference that I'm graduating. In fact, the fact that I'm graduating should be an enhancement for what's taking place as opposed to a finish line where they release me and they're done with me now." All that, I think, is important.
We've got time for one more question right here.
Several times you've mentioned "a generation." But the 18-34 now is both millennials and the end of Gen-X. And if we really want to open it up, this really 20 to 34 is having children which are having the exact same thing going on. I've got several of my classmates that I graduated with back in the late '90s that have kids that are getting ready to go to college, and they're in the same spot now. How do we approach this three generations of adolescence?
Jeff Arnett, he kind of studied this phase. And what he basically came up with, there's kind of three different movements that are happening now, and it's from 18 to 22 there's the launching phase of, "I'm kind of going out to find my way." It's not finding the way that typically would happen through the college experience. S, 18 to 22 is launching.
Twenty-two to 26 is the exploring phase, trying to figure out who I am, what works, what's the right fit for me. And then the 26 to 29 phase is a landing phase. And he's done enough research to identify these really distinct movements that people go through.
And unlike an adolescent in the teen years that kind of rejects mom and dad, it's interesting to watch these young adults in this emerging adolescent thing – emerging adulthood phase, because they're looking at mom and dad as collaborators now and as resources to help them. You see a lot of parents investing in their children's business plan or idea and things like that. And so, they're using their parents' networks to help launch what they're doing.
So, there is some distinction that's happening in those different groups; it's not just a thing of there's a failure to launch; it's that, well, launching, exploring, landing looks really different than it did a long time ago. And a lot of it is because everything about the economy has changed.
These people aren't just competing against people in their neighborhood for jobs; they're competing against people in India and China and all over the world, in the U.S. at least. And in those countries, they're experiencing a growth in that area, too. I mean I was just in India, and to see, over a course of 20 years of traveling there, just the growth of the middle class has been phenomenal.
So, it's not just something happening in the U.S., it's happening in other countries as well, that they're dealing with these changes.
Yeah, and it's an interesting phenomena. And there are things happening that are really, really unusual. I was at a lunch the beginning of the week with someone who works in Hollywood, who does a lot of internships. And he says that he's experiencing, with corporations, the situation where young adults, 20-year-olds, are getting in their first job, and you know who's negotiating their contracts with the businesses? Their parents.
Their parents.
And he said corporations are having to restructure the way they think about doing this contract work because there's a phenomena taking place that they hadn't been dealing with before.
So, these changes are profound, and that's why we've highlighted this topic today, is because I think we have thought about – we tend to think about it like you're moving through a school and you're just graduating from grade to grade to grade to grade.
And it's actually much more complicated than that, and it's gonna take a lot more thought in thinking through how to minister to this group and to communicate community to them effectively. And if you over program that, if it has an over program feel and an over commodity feel to it, there's not gonna be a connection.
Well, our time is up. Let me pray for us and thank you, Jay and Mark, for being with us.
Father, we do thank You for this time to reflect on really what is the coming generation. And we pray that as we do that, and as we think about what we contribute as men and women who've been called to church work, that You would help us to be sensitive to the way our society is functioning around us and the way to minister effectively at a personal level and at a community level and not just at a program level for those to whom we reach out.
There are so many things we didn't even touch on, and that is how do you prepare those who are in our classes for the intellectual and social challenges that they'll face? We're just talking about the church dimensions of what's being talked about, and there are other layers to it.
We need Your wisdom and Your goodness and Your grace and Your guidance to do this well, and that's what we ask for. We ask it in Jesus' name, amen.

If you have an accounting or ERP system, that's reached a certain age, it's natural to wonder whether to keep the status quo or replace it with something new. As your software ages and your business grows, issues can pop up which at may at first seem like slightly annoying idiosyncrasies. But, as one issue leads to others, the risks you face by holding onto an outdated system intensify.
While the formula itself is simple, some people struggle with figuring out what to include in each of these figures. To answer these questions, we created the video you see below. In less than two minutes you'll get a quick visual overview of the most important factors to include in your total cost of ownership calculation.
Can't watch right now? No problem! Keep reading for a written list.
Could a new system help me decrease my operating expenses? By how much?
New ERP's, are more user-friendly than legacy ones, which allows people to get more done in less time and boosts employee satisfaction. How could an increase in productivity save my business money?
Many new ERPs can integrate directly with your customer relationship management system. Finally, you have a single version of the truth and can get a 360° view of every customer. Having this data at their fingertips makes it easier for customer support reps to respond to issues. What kind of cost savings or increase profit might this bring?
Having a single space to store all of your most important business data allows you to make data-driven decisions faster, how might that help the bottom line?
How much will the new software licenses cost me?
How much time and money will I have to spend training users on the new system?
Total Cost of Ownership: What to Include?
Purchase Price + Implementation Costs + Operating Costs (for the next 5 to 10 years).
While not quite as easy as 2+2, figuring out the true cost of a new ERP system does not have to be difficult, if you follow the formulas, we've laid out here. And, if you're looking for an even easier way to get an estimate of the cost to replace your ERP system, check out this handy calculator tool developed by Acumatica.

Supporting Ireland's transition to a secure, net zero energy future
Formed in 2013, the core mission of the University College Dublin Energy Institute is to decarbonise our energy system. The Institute and its current central programme Next Generation Energy Systems (NexSys) brings together researchers from across the island, with the key industry actors, policymakers and communities to resolve the challenges of a just transition to a decarbonised system. This programme builds on the strong foundations of the Energy Systems Integration Partnership Programme (ESIPP), funded by SFI and industry that ran from 2016-21.
NexSys Academic and Industry Research Partners
We supported policy and outcomes in energy efficiency and decarbonisation of energy in Ireland and internationally through the Energy Systems Integration Partnership Programme (ESIPP) programme. In line with our core objectives for the programme, we successfully developed a strong talent pipeline of doctoral, postdoctoral and early career faculty in the internationally competitive and growing area of sustainable energy systems.
The programme's directive to influence national and international energy policy was achieved through ESIPP academics providing analytical support to the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications, and by their research outputs supporting actions by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI). The ESIPP programme also contributed to major climate dialogues including the Dublin Climate Dialogues and the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26).
Impact achieved
Creating a talent pipeline
Over the course of five short years, ESIPP delivered on its key objectives. The programme developed a strong pipeline of research talent impacting academic and industry sectors:
– 69 Masters graduates, 32 PhD graduates and 35 Postdoctoral fellows trained as system thinkers, applying a "whole-of-system approach" to the challenges of decarbonisation.
– 43% of trainee departures have moved to industry.
ESIPP academics are shaping international energy policy and are directly involved in setting National policy.
– Provide analytical support to the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications, particularly for the Climate Action plan, and are consulted on climate policy decisions.
– Research outputs used by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland in determining priority housing retrofit locations.
– Leadership of the Dublin Climate Dialogues, featuring keynote speakers John Kerry, Fatih Birol (International Energy Agency (IEA)), Mary Robinson, several Government ministers and leading figures from industry and academia. The conclusions of the Dublin Dialogues were formally presented to the UK COP26 Presidency as a direct input to the COP26 discussion.
Tools and Technologies developed through programme
The ESIPP is supporting decision making in industry with demand response models for the water sector, exploring the future role of the gas network and opportunities for green hydrogen as a fuel.
New technologies deployed through spin-out companies include NovoGrid (Keane), OxyMem (Casey, Syron), and VorTech Water Solutions (Clifford). For example, OxyMem technology saves 75% energy in wastewater treatment using a novel biofilm. The company already had a staff of 60 when it was acquired by DuPont in 2019.
Leading in Europe
– €8 million in EU funding received over the course of the programme
– ESIPP team members are the National Representatives for Ireland on multiple International Energy Agency Task Forces
– ESIPP team members participate in the European Energy Research Alliance Joint Programmes in Energy Systems Integration (EERA JP ESI) and Smart Grids (EERA JP SG), which are designed to develop the technical and economic framework that governments and industries need to build the future efficient and sustainable European energy system.
The programme team engaged with policy makers and other stakeholders through their Insight Series and policy-seminar series, and with the public through several media engagements in print, online, radio and TV. Leading ESIPP academics such as Professor Andrew Keane and Professor Lisa Ryan were featured in National media such as the Irish Times, the Irish Examiner, RTE News and Ireland AM, ensuring extensive reach of the team's expertise.
The programme assesses the impact of policies and decisions on communities, directly engaging with them on the impact of decarbonisation. For example, the closure of two peat fired power plants in the midlands affects around 4,000 jobs in one of the country's poorest regions, resulting in an uncertain future for the workers, their families, and the communities. Our researchers worked with those affected on a study investigating the application of 'Just Transition' principles. A report was prepared, and shared with the Just Transition Commissioner and other key stakeholders, including the local community through local radio, Shannonside FM. A key concern from the community was the suddenness of the decision without an alternative plan for the future of the region. Research undertaken continues to be shared through peer-reviewed publications.
Learnings from ESIPP have informed the development of its successor programme Next Generation Energy Systems (NexSys). For example, the demand for practical, higher technology readiness level (TRL) support for industry has led to the development of the Integrated Energy Lab. Recognising the importance of transport for decarbonisation of energy systems, it has been added to the programme, bringing new academic expertise to the team as well as new co-funding partners. Other important learnings include the importance of an all-island approach to research bringing together academia, industry partners and policymakers; the need to support early career researchers through access to new funding and networks of collaborators and the need to address cost of living for PhDs students. In response, an internal researcher mobility scheme has been created, and the Energy Institute has provided a financial 'top-up' of €500 to PhD stipends, with 21 students benefiting.

\section{Introduction}
Estimating the state of the atmosphere and the ocean has long been one
of the main goals of modern science. Data assimilation, which consists
of combining data and dynamical models to determine the best possible
estimate of the state of a system, is now recognized as the best
approach to tackle this problem \citep{Ghil1991-data}. The strongly
nonlinear character of the atmospheric and oceanic models, combined
with their important computational burden, makes data assimilation in
these systems quite challenging.
Based on the Bayesian estimation theory, the optimal solution of the
nonlinear data assimilation problem can be obtained from the optimal
nonlinear filter (ONF) \citep{Doucet2001-sequential}. This involves the
estimation of the conditional probability distribution function ({\it
pdf}) (not necessarily Gaussian) of the system state given all
available measurements up to the estimation time. Knowledge of the
state {\it pdf} allows determining different estimates of the state,
such as the minimum variance estimate or the maximum a posteriori
estimate \citep{Todling1999-estimation}. The ONF recursively operates
as a succession of a correction (or analysis) step at measurement
times to correct the state (predictive) {\it pdf} using the Bayes'
rule, and a prediction step to propagate the state (analysis) {\it
pdf} to the time of the next available observation. Although
conceptually simple, the numerical implementation of the optimal
nonlinear filter can be computationally prohibitive, even for systems
with few dimensions \citep{Doucet2001-sequential}. Its use with atmospheric and
oceanic data assimilation problems is therefore not possible because
of the huge dimension of these systems.
In recent years, two approximation schemes of the ONF have attracted
the attention of researchers for their potentials to tackle nonlinear
and non-Gaussian data assimilation problems. One is based on the
point-mass representation (mixture of Dirac functions) of the state
{\it pdf}, and leads to the celebrated particle filter (PF)
\citep{Doucet2001-sequential,Pham2001,Nakano2007-merging,vanLeeuwen-variance,VanLeeuwen2009}. The
other is based on the Gaussian mixture representation of the state
{\it pdf}, and results in a filter that is in between the Kalman
filter and the particle filter
\citep{Anderson-Monte,Bengtsson2003,Chen2000-mixture,Hoteit2008,Luo2008-spgsf1,Sorenson-recursive},
as to be shown later. For this reason, we refer to this filter as the
particle Kalman filter (PKF).
In terms of computational efficiency, the particle filter needs to
generate large samples for a good approximation of the state {\it
pdf}. In certain circumstances, in order to avoid weights collapse,
the number of samples needs to scale exponentially with the dimension
of the system in assimilation \citep{Bengtsson2008}, which may be
infeasible for high-dimensional systems \citep{Snyder2008}. On the
other hand, in some comparison studies
\citep{Han-evaluation,Nakano2007-merging}, it has been reported that
the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) and its variants
\citep{Anderson-ensemble,Bishop-adaptive,Burgers-analysis,Evensen-sequential,Evensen-assimilation,Houtekamer1998,Whitaker-ensemble}
can achieve lower estimation errors than the particle filter given a
small ensemble size. To save space, in this paper we confine ourselves
to the PKF, and make performance comparison only between the PKF and
the EnKF.
Using a Gaussian mixture representation of the state {\it pdf}, the
resulting PKF consists of an ensemble of parallel nonlinear Kalman
filters \citep{Hoteit2008,Luo2008-spgsf1}. Different variants of the
Kalman filter (KF), including the extended Kalman filter
\citep{Chen2000-mixture,Sorenson-recursive}, the reduced-rank Kalman
filter \citep{Hoteit2008,Luo2008-spgsf1}, the EnKF
\citep{Anderson-Monte,Bengtsson2003}, can be used to construct the
PKF. The focus of this paper is to investigate the PKF that is
constructed by an ensemble of parallel EnKFs. Common to all the
implementations of the PKF, the mixture of normal distributions (MON)
-- a more general {\it pdf} representation than the single Gaussian
{\it pdf} approximation in the EnKF -- can be used to tackle
nonlinearity and non-Gaussianity in data assimilation. On the other
hand, choosing the EnKF to construct the PKF is based on the
consideration of computational efficiency, since the EnKF itself is a
very efficient algorithm for data assimilation in high dimensional
systems. In this regard, this work is very similar to the earlier
works of \citet{Anderson-Monte} and \citet{Bengtsson2003}, but is
different from them mainly in the following aspect.
In \citet{Anderson-Monte} and \citet{Bengtsson2003}, the PKF was
constructed without a re-sampling step. As a result, the PKF may
suffer from weights collapse as in the particle filter. To overcome
this problem, \cite{Bengtsson2003} considered a hybrid of the EnKF and
the PKF, which, however, involves the computation of the inverses of
sample covariance matrices in the ``global-to-local'' adjustments. In
doing so, it is not only computationally intensive, but also
encounters singularities in computing the inverses when the ensemble
size is smaller than the system dimension, such that the sample
covariances themselves are rank deficient. Therefore, it is not clear
how the hybrid scheme in \cite{Bengtsson2003} can be applied to the
scenario with the ensemble size smaller than the system dimension. For
the implementation of the PKF scheme in this work, we introduce a
re-sampling step similar to those in \cite{Musso-improving-2001} and
\citet{Stavropoulos-improved-2001} to tackle weights collapse. Our
experience shows that, with this re-sampling step, the PKF becomes
much more stable and can conduct data assimilation in the small
ensemble scenario, as to be demonstrated through the numerical
experiments presented in this work.
As may be of particular interest for the ensemble filtering community,
we will show that different EnKFs can be considered as special cases
of the PEnKF following our implementation. This point of view allows
for a better understanding of the EnKFs' behaviors and/or their
differences.
The paper is organized as follows. The optimal nonlinear filter is
first described in section \ref{optfilter}. The PKF and its ensemble
implementation are discussed in section \ref{pkf}. Results of
numerical experiments with the Lorenz-$96$ model are presented in
section \ref{experiments}. A summary of the main results and a general
discussion on the potential of the PEnKF for tackling realistic
atmospheric and oceanic data assimilation problems concludes the paper
in section \ref{discussion}.
\section{The Optimal Nonlinear Filter}
\label{optfilter}
Starting from a random initial condition with a known probability
density function, the optimal nonlinear filter provides the
conditional density function of the system state given all available
measurements up to the estimation time. To describe the algorithm of
the optimal nonlinear filter, consider the nonlinear stochastic
discrete-time dynamical system
\begin{eqnarray}
\label{model}
\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k &=& \mbox{\boldmath$M$}_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1}) + \mbox{\boldmath$\eta$}_k,\\
\label{obs}
\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k &=& \mbox{\boldmath$H$}_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k) + \mbox{\boldmath$\epsilon$}_k,
\end{eqnarray}
where $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k$ is the state vector (to be estimated), of dimension $n$,
$\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k$ is the observation vector, of dimension $p$, $\mbox{\boldmath$M$}_k$ and
$\mbox{\boldmath$H$}_k$ are two continuously differentiable maps from ${\rm I\kern-.15em R}^n$ to
${\rm I\kern-.15em R}^n$ and from ${\rm I\kern-.15em R}^n$ to ${\rm I\kern-.15em R}^p$ respectively representing the
transition and the observational operators, and $\mbox{\boldmath$\eta$}_k$ and
$\mbox{\boldmath$\epsilon$}_k$ denote the dynamical and the observational noise,
respectively. We assume that $\mbox{\boldmath$\eta$}_k$ and $\mbox{\boldmath$\epsilon$}_k$ are Gaussian
with zero mean and non-singular covariance matrices $\mbox{\boldmath$Q$}_k$ and
$\mbox{\boldmath$R$}_k$, respectively, and are independent of the system state at any
time instant. Under this setting, the dynamical system
Eq.~(\ref{model}) is Markovian.
The optimal nonlinear filter recursively operates with a succession of
prediction and correction steps as summarized below. The reader is
referred to \cite{Doucet2001-sequential} for an extensive description of the
filter. To simplify the notation, $\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}$ is defined as a
shorthand for the set of all observations $\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_1, \dots, \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k$ up to
and including time $t_k$. Let $p^f_k(~\cdot \mid\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1})$ be the
conditional (predictive) {\it pdf} of $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k$ given $\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}$ and
$p^a_k(~\cdot \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k})$ be the conditional (analysis) {\it pdf}
of $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k$ given $\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}$, both determined at time $t_k$. The
filter steps are described as follows.
\begin{enumerate}
\item[$\bullet$] {\underline {\it Prediction step}:} Given the
analysis {\it pdf} $p^a_{k-1}(~\cdot \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1})$ at time
$t_{k-1}$, the predictive {\it pdf} $p^f_k(~\cdot \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1})$ is
obtained by integrating $p^a_{k-1}(~\cdot \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1})$ with the
model (\ref{model}) to the time of the next available observation
$t_k$. Under the assumptions made on the model noise $\mbox{\boldmath$\eta$}_k$, the
likelihood function for the state vector $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1}$ to transit to $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k}$ at the next time instant is described by the Gaussian {\it pdf} $N \left(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k}: \mbox{\boldmath$M$}_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1}), \mbox{\boldmath$Q$}_k\right)$, where $N \left(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}: \mathbf{\mu}, \mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}\right)$ denotes the Gaussian {\it pdf} with mean $\mathbf{\mu}$ and covariance $\mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}$. Thus,
\begin{eqnarray}
\label{e:predicden}
p^f_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}) &=& \int_{{\rm I\kern-.15em R}^n} N \left(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k}:
\mbox{\boldmath$M$}_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1}) , \mbox{\boldmath$Q$}_k\right) p^a_{k-1}(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}) d\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1}.
\end{eqnarray}
\item[$\bullet$] {\underline {\it Correction step}:} After a new
observation $\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k$ has been made, the analysis {\it pdf} $p_k^a (~\cdot
\mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k})$ at time $t_k$ is updated from $p_k^f (~\cdot
\mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1})$ using Bayes' rule, i.e.,
\begin{eqnarray}
\label{e:conden}
p^a_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}) &=& \frac{1}{b_k}p^f_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k} \mid
\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}) N \left(\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k: \mbox{\boldmath$H$}_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k}), \mbox{\boldmath$R$}_k\right).
\end{eqnarray}
The analysis {\it pdf} is therefore obtained by multiplying the
predictive {\it pdf} by the observation likelihood function $N \left(\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k: \mbox{\boldmath$H$}_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k}), \mbox{\boldmath$R$}_k\right)$, and then being normalized by $b_k
= \int_{{\rm I\kern-.15em R}^n} p^f_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}) N\left(\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k:
H_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k}) , R_k\right) d\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k}$.
\end{enumerate}
While the expressions of the state {\it pdf}s can be obtained
conceptually, determining the exact values of them at each point of
the state space is practically infeasible in high dimensional systems
\citep{Doucet2001-sequential}. For instance, the determination of the predictive
{\it pdf} requires the evaluation of the model $\mbox{\boldmath$M$}_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$})$ for a
prohibitively large number of $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}$, given that one single evaluation
might already be computationally very expensive in realistic
atmospheric and oceanic applications.
\section{The Particle Ensemble Kalman Filter}
\label{pkf}
\subsection{Particle Kalman Filtering and Its Ensemble Implementation}
Given $N$ independent samples $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}^1, \ldots, \mbox{\boldmath$x$}^N$ from a
(multivariate) density $p$, an estimator $\hat{p}$ of $p$ can be
obtained by the kernel density estimation method
\citep{Silverman1986}, in the form of a mixture of $N$ Gaussian {\it
pdf}s:
\begin{eqnarray}
\hat{p}(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}) &=& \frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^N N(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}: \mbox{\boldmath$x$}^i , \mbox{\boldmath$P$}),
\end{eqnarray}
where $\mbox{\boldmath$P$}$ is a positive definite matrix. Inspired from this
estimator, the particle Kalman filter (PKF) approximates the
conditional state {\it pdf}s in the optimal nonlinear filter by
mixtures of $N$ Gaussian densities of the form
\begin{eqnarray}
\label{approxmix}
p^s_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}) &=& \sum_{i=1}^N w^i_k N(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k: \mbox{\boldmath$x$}^{s,i}_k, \mbox{\boldmath$P$}^{s,i}_k).
\end{eqnarray}
The subscript $s$ replaces $a$ at the analysis time and $f$ at the
prediction time. The parameters of the mixture are the weights
$w^i_k$, the centers of the distributions $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}^{s,i}_k$, and the
covariance matrices $\mbox{\boldmath$P$}^{s,i}_k$. In particular, if $N=1$,
$p^s_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k})$ reduces to a single Gaussian {\it pdf},
so that the PKF reduces to the Kalman filter (KF) or its variants
trivially (a non-trivial simplification will also be discussed
below). Consequently, the KF and its variants can be considered
special cases of the PKF.
Two special cases of Eq.~(\ref{approxmix}) may be of particular
interest. In the first case, $\mbox{\boldmath$P$}^{s,i}_k \rightarrow \mathbf{0}$,
such that the Gaussian {\it pdf}s $N(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k: \mbox{\boldmath$x$}^{s,i}_k, \mbox{\boldmath$P$}^{s,i}_k)$
tend to a set of Dirac functions $\delta(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}^{s,i}_k)$, with the mass
points at $\mbox{\boldmath$x$}^{s,i}_k$. In this case, the Gaussian mixture
Eq.~(\ref{approxmix}) reduces to the Monte Carlo approximation used in
the particle filter \citep{Doucet2001-sequential}. In the second case, all
Gaussian {\it pdf}s $N(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k: \mbox{\boldmath$x$}^{s,i}_k, \mbox{\boldmath$P$}^{s,i}_k)$ have (almost)
identical centers and covariances, such that the Gaussian mixture
Eq.~(\ref{approxmix}) tends to a (single) Gaussian approximation, an
assumption often used in various nonlinear Kalman filters (including
the EnKF). In this sense, the PKF can be considered as a filter in
between the Kalman filter and the particle filter
\citep{Hoteit2008,Luo2008-spgsf1}.
The main procedures of the PKF are summarized as follows. Without loss
of generality, suppose that at time instant $k-1$, the analysis {\it
pdf}, after a re-sampling step, is given by
$\tilde{p}_{k-1}(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}) = \sum_{i=1}^N
\tilde{w}^i_{k-1} N(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1}: \mathbf{\theta}^{i}_{k-1},
\mathbf{\Phi}^{i}_{k-1})$. Then by applying Eq.~(\ref{e:predicden}) at
the prediction step, one obtains the background {\it pdf}, in terms of
a new MON
\begin{eqnarray}
\label{approxpred}
p^f_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}) &\approx& \sum_{i=1}^N \tilde{w}^i_{k-1}
N \left(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k: \hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{f,i}_{k} , \hat{\mbox{\boldmath$P$}}^{f,i}_{k}\right),
\end{eqnarray}
where $\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{f,i}_{k}$ and $\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$P$}}^{f,i}_{k}$ are the
propagations of the mean $\mathbf{\theta}^{i}_{k-1}$ and the
covariance $\mathbf{\Phi}^{i}_{k-1}$ of the Gaussian component
$N(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k-1}: \mathbf{\theta}^{i}_{k-1}, \mathbf{\Phi}^{i}_{k-1})$
through the system model Eq.~(\ref{model}), respectively.
Given an incoming observation $\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k$, one applies
Eq.~(\ref{e:conden}) to update $p^f_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1})$ to the
analysis {\it pdf}, also in the form of an MON
\begin{eqnarray}
\label{densmix}
p^a_k(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}) &=& \sum_{i=1}^N w^i_{k} N \big(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_k:
\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{a,i}_{k}, \hat{\mbox{\boldmath$P$}}^{a,i}_{k}\big),
\end{eqnarray}
where $\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{a,i}_{k}$ and $\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$P$}}^{a,i}_{k}$ are updated from
$\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{f,i}_{k}$ and $\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$P$}}^{f,i}_{k}$ through the Kalman
filter or its variants, and the new weights
\begin{eqnarray}
\label{corrp}
w^i_k &=& \frac{\tilde{w}^i_{k-1} N \big(\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k: \mbox{\boldmath$H$}_k(\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{f,i}_k) ,
\mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}^i_k \big)}{\sum_{j=1}^N \tilde{w}^i_{k-1} N \big(\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k: \mbox{\boldmath$H$}_k(\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{f,i}_k), \mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}^i_k \big)} \, ,
\end{eqnarray}
where $\mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}^i_k$ is the innovation matrix. If evaluated through the
extended Kalman filter, $\mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}^i_k = {\bf H}^i_k \hat{\mbox{\boldmath$P$}}^{f,i}_k
({\bf H}_k^{i})^T + \mbox{\boldmath$R$}_k$, with ${\bf H}^i_k$ being the gradient of
$\mbox{\boldmath$H$}_k$ evaluated at $\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{f,i}_k$. Alternatively, if evaluated
in the context of the EnKF, $\mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}^i_k$ can be expressed as the
covariance of the projected background ensemble onto the observation
space plus the observation covariance $\mbox{\boldmath$R$}_k$
\citep{Evensen-sequential,Whitaker-ensemble}. Finally, a re-sampling
step can be introduced to improve the performance of the PKF
\citep{Hoteit2008,Luo2008-spgsf1}, so that the analysis {\it pdf}
becomes $\tilde{p}_{k}(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}) = \sum_{i=1}^N
\tilde{w}^i_k N(\mbox{\boldmath$x$}_{k}: \mathbf{\theta}^{i}_{k},
\mathbf{\Phi}^{i}_{k})$. Such a re-sampling algorithm is presented in
the next section.
The PKF correction step can be interpreted as composed of two types of
corrections: a {\it Kalman-type correction} used to update
$\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{f,i}_{k}$ and $\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$P$}}^{f,i}_{k}$ to
$\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{a,i}_{k}$ and $\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$P$}}^{a,i}_{k}$, and a {\it
particle-type correction} used to update the weights
$\tilde{w}^i_{k-1}$ to $w^i_{k}$. In the PKF, the Kalman correction
reduces the risk of weights collapse by allocating the estimates
$\hat{\mbox{\boldmath$x$}}^{f,i}_k$ (whose projections onto the observation space) far
away from the observation $\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k$ relatively more weights than in the
particle filter \citep{Hoteit2008,VanLeeuwen2009}. Indeed,
Eq. (\ref{corrp}) has the same form as in the PF \citep{Doucet2001-sequential},
but uses the innovation matrices $\mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}^i_k$ to normalize the
model-data misfit, rather than $\mbox{\boldmath$R$}_k$. As $\mbox{\boldmath$\Sigma$}^i_k$ are always
greater than $\mbox{\boldmath$R$}_k$, the estimates that are close to the observation
will receive relatively less weights than in the PF, while those far
from the observation will receive relatively more weights. This means
that the support of the local predictive {\it pdf} and the observation
likelihood function will be more coherent than in the PF. Re-sampling
will therefore be needed less often, so that Monte Carlo fluctuations
are reduced.
The main issue with the PKF is the prohibitive computational burden
associated with running an ensemble of KFs, knowing that running a
Kalman filter (KF) or an extended KF in high dimensional systems is
already a challenge. To reduce computational cost, we use an ensemble
of EnKFs, rather than the KF or the extended KF, to construct the
PKF. We refer to this approach as the Particle Ensemble Kalman Filter
(PEnKF). In the PEnKF, the (analysis) ensembles representing the
Gaussian components are propagated forward in time to obtain a set of
background ensembles at the next assimilation cycle. Then for each
background ensemble, a stochastic or deterministic EnKF is used to
update the background ensemble to its analysis counterpart. This
amounts to simultaneously running a weighted ensemble of EnKFs, and
the final state estimate is the weighted average of all the EnKFs
solutions.
\subsection{A Re-sampling Algorithm}
\label{sec:re-sampling}
We adopt a re-sampling algorithm that combines those in
\citet{Hoteit2008,Luo2008-spgsf1,Pham2001}. The main idea is as
follows: Given a MON, we first employ an information-theoretic
criterion used in \citet{Hoteit2008} and \citet{Pham2001} to check if
it needs to conduct re-sampling. If there is such a need, we then
re-approximate the MON by a new MON, based on the criterion that the mean and covariance of the new MON match those of the original MON as far as possible \citet{Luo2008-spgsf1}.
More concretely, let $p \left( \mathbf{x} \right)$ be the {\it pdf} of
the $n$-dimensional random vector $\mathbf{x}$, expressed in terms of
an MON with $N$ Gaussian {\it pdf}s so that
\begin{equation} \label{eq:original_GMM}
p \left( \mathbf{x} \right) = \sum\limits_{i=1}^{N} w_i N \left(\mathbf{x}: \mathbf{\mu}_i, \mathbf{\Sigma}_i\right) \, ,
\end{equation}
where $w_i$ are the set of normalized weights of the Gaussian {\it
pdf}s $N \left(\mathbf{x}: \mathbf{\mu}_i, \mathbf{\Sigma}_i\right)$
with mean $\mathbf{\mu}_i$ and covariance $\mathbf{\Sigma}_i$,
satisfying $w_i \geq 0$ for $i=1,\dotsb,N$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{N}
w_i=1$. To decide whether to conduct re-sampling or not, the entropy
$E_w$ of the weights $w_i$ is computed, which reads
\citep{Hoteit2008,Pham2001}
\begin{equation}
E_w = - \sum\limits_{i=1}^{N} w_i \text{log} w_i \, .
\end{equation}
Ideally, when the distribution of the weights $w_i$ is uniform, which
yields the maximum weight entropy $E_w^{u}=\text{log} N$, there is no
need to conduct re-sampling. Thus, as a criterion, if $E_w$ is within
a certain distance $d$ to $E_w^u$, i.e.,
\begin{equation} \label{eq:resampling_criterion}
E_w^u - E_w = \text{log} N + \sum\limits_{i=1}^{N} w_i \text{log} w_i \leq d \, ,
\end{equation}
where $d$ is a user-defined threshold, then we choose not to conduct
re-sampling. In this work we set the threshold $d=0.25$ following
\citet{Hoteit2008}.
In case that there is a need to conduct re-sampling, we follow the
procedure similar to that in \citet{Luo2008-spgsf1}. Here the idea is
to treat re-sampling as a {\it pdf} approximation problem, in which we
seek a new MON
\begin{equation} \label{eq:new_GMM}
\tilde{p} \left( \mathbf{x} \right) = \dfrac{1}{q} \sum\limits_{i=1}^{q} N \left(\mathbf{x}: \mathbf{\theta}_i, \mathbf{\Phi}_i\right) \, ,
\end{equation}
with $q$ equally weighted Gaussian {\it pdf}s, to approximate the
original $p \left( \mathbf{x} \right)$ in
Eq.~(\ref{eq:original_GMM}). In approximation, we require that the
mean and covariance of $\tilde{p} \left( \mathbf{x} \right)$ be as
close as possible to those of $p \left( \mathbf{x} \right)$. To this
end, we need to choose proper values of $\mathbf{\theta}_i$ and
$\mathbf{\Phi}_i$ in order to achieve this objective.
The means and covariances of $p \left( \mathbf{x} \right)$ and
$\tilde{p} \left( \mathbf{x} \right)$, denoted by $\bar{\mathbf{x}}$
and $\bar{\mathbf{P}}$, and $\tilde{\mathbf{x}}$ and
$\tilde{\mathbf{P}}$, respectively, are given by
\begin{subequations} \label{eq:stat_original_pdf}
\begin{align}
\bar{\mathbf{x}} &= \sum_{i=1}^{N} w_i \mathbf{\mu}_i \, , ~\text{and}~
\bar{\mathbf{P}} = \sum_{s=1}^{N} w_i \left(\mathbf{\Sigma}_i + \left( \mathbf{\mu}_i - \bar{\mathbf{x}} \right) \left( \mathbf{\mu}_i - \bar{\mathbf{x}} \right)^T \right) \, ,\\
\tilde{\mathbf{x}} &= \dfrac{1}{q} \sum_{i=1}^{q} \mathbf{\theta}_i \, , ~\text{and}~
\tilde{\mathbf{P}} = \dfrac{1}{q} \sum_{i=1}^{q} \left(\mathbf{\Phi}_i + \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i - \tilde{\mathbf{x}} \right) \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i - \tilde{\mathbf{x}} \right)^T \right) \, .
\end{align}
\end{subequations}
Thus our objective is equivalent to balancing the above equation such that
\begin{equation} \label{eq:auxiliary_objective}
\tilde{\mathbf{x}} = \bar{\mathbf{x}} \, , ~\text{and}~ \tilde{\mathbf{P}} \approx \bar{\mathbf{P}} \, .
\end{equation}
In the trivial case with $q = N = 1$,
Eq.~(\ref{eq:auxiliary_objective}) can be satisfied by letting
$\mathbf{\theta}_1 = \mathbf{\mu}_1$ and $\mathbf{\Phi}_1 =
\mathbf{\Sigma}_1$, and the PEnKF reduces to an EnKF. In non-trivial
cases, for simplicity in solving Eq.~(\ref{eq:auxiliary_objective})
and reducing computational cost (as to be shown later), one may choose
the covariances $\mathbf{\Phi}_i$ to be constant, say
$\mathbf{\Phi}_i= \mathbf{\Phi}$, for $i=1,\dotsb,q$, so that
\begin{equation} \label{eq:objective_expression}
\dfrac{1}{q} \sum_{i=1}^{q} \mathbf{\theta}_i = \bar{\mathbf{x}} \, , ~\text{and}~
\mathbf{\Phi} + \dfrac{1}{q} \sum_{i=1}^{q} \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i - \bar{\mathbf{x}} \right) \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i - \bar{\mathbf{x}} \right)^T \approx \bar{\mathbf{P}} \, .
\end{equation}
When an EnKF is used to construct the PKF, one needs to represent the
solution of Eq.~(\ref{eq:objective_expression}) in terms of some
ensembles $\{ \mathbf{X}_{en}^i, i=1,\dotsb,q\}$, where
$\mathbf{X}_{en}^i$ is a matrix containing the (analysis) ensemble of
the $i$th Gaussian component in Eq.~(\ref{eq:new_GMM}), with mean
$\mathbf{\theta}_i$ and covariance $\mathbf{\Phi}$. For simplicity, we
assume that $\mathbf{X}_{en}^i$ are all of dimension $n \times m$,
with the ensemble size $m$ for each $i$. Similar results can be easily
obtained in the case with non-uniform ensemble sizes.
We then define a constant $c$, called \emph{fraction coefficient}
hereafter, which satisfies that $0 \leq c \leq 1$. We let
$\mathbf{\Phi} \approx c^2 \bar{\mathbf{P}}$, so that
Eq.~(\ref{eq:objective_expression}) is reduced to
\begin{equation} \label{eq:reduced_objective_expression}
\dfrac{1}{q} \sum_{i=1}^{q} \mathbf{\theta}_i = \bar{\mathbf{x}} \, , ~\text{and}~
\dfrac{1}{q} \sum_{i=1}^{q} \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i - \bar{\mathbf{x}} \right) \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i - \bar{\mathbf{x}} \right)^T \approx (1-c^2) \bar{\mathbf{P}} \, .
\end{equation}
In other words, the centers $\{ \mathbf{\theta}_i, i = 1, \dotsb, q
\}$ can be generated as a set of state vectors whose sample mean and
covariance are $\bar{\mathbf{x}}$ and $(1-c^2) \bar{\mathbf{P}}$,
respectively. After obtaining $\mathbf{\theta}_i$, one can generate
the corresponding ensembles $\mathbf{X}_{en}^i$, with the sample means
and covariances being $\mathbf{\theta}_i$ and $\mathbf{\Phi} \approx
c^2 \bar{\mathbf{P}}$, respectively. How $ \mathbf{\theta}_i$ and
$\mathbf{X}_{en}^i$ can be generated is discussed with more details in
the support material.
From the above discussion, we see that $c$ is a coefficient that
decides how to divide $\bar{\mathbf{P}}$ among $\mathbf{\Phi}$ and
$\dfrac{1}{q} \sum_{i=1}^{q} \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i -
\bar{\mathbf{x}} \right) \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i - \bar{\mathbf{x}}
\right)^T$, so that the constraints in
Eq.~(\ref{eq:objective_expression}) are satisfied. When $c \rightarrow
0$, we have $\mathbf{\Phi} \rightarrow \mathbf{0}$ so that $\tilde{p}
\left( \mathbf{x} \right)$ in Eq.~(\ref{eq:new_GMM}) approaches the
Monte Carlo approximation in the particle filter, with the mass points
equal to $\mathbf{\theta}_i$. On the other hand, when $c \rightarrow
1$, we have $\dfrac{1}{q} \sum_{i=1}^{q} \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i -
\bar{\mathbf{x}} \right) \left( \mathbf{\theta}_i - \bar{\mathbf{x}}
\right)^T \rightarrow \mathbf{0}$, so that all $\mathbf{\theta}_i$
approach $\bar{\mathbf{x}}$ and $\mathbf{\Phi}$ approaches
$\bar{\mathbf{P}}$. As a result, $\tilde{p} \left( \mathbf{x} \right)$
in Eq.~(\ref{eq:new_GMM}) approaches the Gaussian {\it pdf}
$N(\mathbf{x}: \bar{\mathbf{x}},\bar{\mathbf{P}})$, which is
essentially the assumption used in the EnKF. In this sense, when
equipped with the re-sampling algorithm, the PEnKF is a filter in
between the particle filter and the EnKF, with an adjustable parameter
$c$ that influences its behavior.
We note that, when $c \rightarrow 0$, under the constraint of matching the first two moments, our re-sampling scheme is very close to the posterior Gaussian re-sampling strategy used in the Gaussian particle filter \citep{Kotecha-signal-2003,Xiong-note-2006}, in which one generates particles from a Gaussian distribution with mean and covariance equal to those of the posterior {\it pdf} of the system states. As a result, there is no guarantee that higher order moments of the new MON match those of the original MON in our re-sampling scheme. If matching higher-order moments is a concern, one may adopt alternative criteria, for instance, the one that aims to minimize the distance (in certain metric) between the new MON and the original one, so that the re-sampling procedure is recast as an optimization problem, in which one aims to choose appropriate parameters, i.e., means and covariances of the new MON, that satisfy the chosen criterion as far as possible. In principle, this type of parameter estimation problem may be solved by the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm \citep{Redner-mixture-1984,Smith-cluster}. But in practice, it is often computationally very intensive in doing so, due to the slow convergence rate of the EM algorithm and the high dimensionality of the parameter space in constructing the new MON. Therefore we do not consider this type of more sophisticated re-sampling strategy in this study.
For the purpose of pdf re-approximation, it is clear that the MON is not the only choice. A few alternatives are developed in the context of kernel density estimation (KDE) \citep{Silverman1986}, and in principle all of them can be applied for pdf re-approximation. For instance, KDE is adopted at the re-sampling step in the regularized
particle filter (RPF) \citep{Musso-improving-2001,Stavropoulos-improved-2001} to construct a continuous pdf with respect the particles before re-sampling, and to draw a number of new particles from the continuous pdf afterwards. In this regard, the PEnKF is similar to the RPF, especially if the Gaussian kernel is adopted in the RPF for density estimation. However, there also exist differences. We list some of them as follows.
\begin{itemize}
\item The RPF first constructs a continuous pdf, and then draws a number of new particles with equal weights from the resulting pdf. In contrast, the PEnKF aims to directly approximate a MON by a new MON with equal weights.
\item In the RPF, various kernels can be adopted for the purpose of constructing the continuous pdf. However, in the PEnKF, we are confined to use the MON, since we aim to build the PEnKF consisting of a set of parallel EnKFs.
\item The pdf re-approximation criterion used in the PEnKF only captures the first two moments of the underlying pdf. In contrast, KDE used in the RPF in principle can yield a very good pdf estimate, provided that there are sufficient particles. In certain circumstances, though, the number of required particles may also suffer from the ``curse-of-dimensionality'' \citep[ch.~4]{Silverman1986}.
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Outline of the PEnKF Algorithm}
To facilitate the comprehension of the PEnKF, here we provide an
outline of the main steps of its algorithm. To avoid distraction, we
will discuss the initialization of the PEnKF in the next
section. Throughout this paper, we assume that the number $q$ of
Gaussian components at the re-sampling step and the number $N$ of
Gaussian components at the prediction and correction steps are time
invariant. This implies the choice $q = N$.
Without loss of generality, we also assume that at time instant $k-1$,
the posterior pdf $p^a_{k-1} (\mathbf{x}_{k-1} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1})$ is
re-approximated, through the re-sampling step, by a mixture model
\[
\tilde{p}_{k-1} (\mathbf{x}_{k-1} \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}) =
\sum\limits_{i=1}^{q} \tilde{w}_{k-1}^i N \left(\mathbf{x}_{k-1}:
\mathbf{\theta}_{k-1,i}, \mathbf{\Phi}_{k-1} \right) \, .
\]
Moreover, the re-approximated analysis ensembles $\{
\mathbf{X}_{approx}^{k-1,i}, i=1,\dotsb,q\}$ representing the Gaussian
components $N \left(\mathbf{x}_{k-1}: \mathbf{\theta}_{k-1,i},
\mathbf{\Phi}_{k-1} \right)$ are also generated. The procedures at
the next assimilation cycle are outlined as follows.
\begin{enumerate}
\item[$\bullet$] {\underline {\it Prediction step}:} For
$i=1,\dotsb,q$, propagate the ensembles
$\mathbf{X}_{approx}^{k-1,i}$ forward through Eq.~(\ref{model}) to
obtain the corresponding background ensembles
$\mathbf{X}_{bg}^{k,i}$ at instant $k$. Accordingly, the background
{\it pdf} becomes
\[
p^b_{k} (\mathbf{x}_k \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k-1}) = \sum\limits_{i=1}^{q}
\tilde{w}_{k-1}^i N \left(\mathbf{x}_k: \hat{\mathbf{x}}_{k,i}^b,
\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{k,i}^b \right) \, ,
\]
with $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_{k,i}^b$ and $\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{k,i}^b$ being
the sample mean and covariance of the ensemble
$\mathbf{X}_{bg}^{k,i}$, respectively.
\item[$\bullet$] {\underline {\it Correction step}:} With an incoming
observation $\mbox{\boldmath$y$}_k$, for each background ensemble
$\mathbf{X}_{bg}^{k,i}$, $i=1,\dotsb,q$, apply an EnKF to obtain the
analysis mean $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_{k,i}^a$ and the analysis ensemble
$\mathbf{X}_{ana}^{k,i}$. During the correction, covariance
inflation and localization (cf. \S~\ref{sec:inflation and
localization}) can be conducted on the EnKF. In addition, update
the associated weights $\tilde{w}_{k-1}^i$ to $w_k^i$ according to
Eq~(\ref{corrp}). After the corrections, the analysis {\it pdf}
becomes
\[
p^a_{k} (\mathbf{x}_k \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}) = \sum\limits_{i=1}^{q} w_k^i N
\left(\mathbf{x}_k: \hat{\mathbf{x}}_{k,i}^a, \hat{\mathbf{P}}_{k,i}^a
\right) \, ,
\]
where $w_k^i$ are computed according to Eq.~(\ref{corrp}) in the
context of the EnKF, and $\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{k,i}^a$ are the sample
covariances of $\mathbf{X}_{ana}^{k,i}$.
\item[$\bullet$] {\underline {\it Re-sampling step}:} Use the
criterion in (\ref{eq:resampling_criterion}) to determine whether to
conduct re-sampling or not.
\begin{enumerate}
\item[$(1)$] If there is no need for re-sampling, then assign
$\tilde{p}_{k} (\mathbf{x}_k \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}) = p^a_{k} (\mathbf{x}_k
\mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k})$, and $\mathbf{X}_{approx}^{k,i} =
\mathbf{X}_{ana}^{k,i}$ for $i = 1, \dotsb, q$;
\item[$(2)$] Otherwise, $\tilde{p}_{k} (\mathbf{x}_k \mid \mbox{\boldmath$y$}_{1:k}) =
\dfrac{1}{q} \sum\limits_{i=1}^{q} N \left(\mathbf{x}_k:
\mathbf{\theta}_{k,i}, \mathbf{\Phi}_{k} \right)$, where
parameters $\mathbf{\theta}_{k,i}$ and $\mathbf{\Phi}_{k}$ are
computed following the method in \S~\ref{sec:re-sampling}, and the
associated weights become $1/q$. The ensembles
$\mathbf{X}_{approx}^{k,i}$ are produced accordingly.
\end{enumerate}
\end{enumerate}
\section{Numerical Experiments}
\label{experiments}
\subsection{Experiment Design}
\label{exp:design}
In the present work, we focus on two different implementations of the
PEnKF: the first is based on the stochastic EnKF (SEnKF) of
\cite{Evensen-sequential} and the second based on the ensemble
transform Kalman filter (ETKF) of \cite{Bishop-adaptive}. These two
implementations are referred to as the PSEnKF and the PETKF,
respectively.
The strongly nonlinear $40$-dimensional system model due to
\cite{Lorenz-optimal} (LE98 model hereafter) was chosen as the testbed
to evaluate and study the performance of these two filters. This model
mimics the time-evolution of a scalar atmospheric quantity. It is
governed by the following set of equations:
\begin{equation} \label{LE98}
\frac{dx_i}{dt} = \left( x_{i+1} -
x_{i-2} \right) x_{i-1} - x_i + 8, \, i=1, \dotsb, 40,
\end{equation}
where the nonlinear quadratic terms simulate advection and the linear
term represents dissipation. Boundary conditions are cyclic, i.e. we
define $x_{-1}=x_{39}$, $x_{0}=x_{40}$, and $x_{41}=x_{1}$. The model
was numerically integrated using the Runge-Kutta fourth order scheme
from time $t = 0$ to $t = 35$ with a constant time step $\Delta t =
0.05$ (which corresponds to $6$ hours in real time). To eliminate the
impact of transition states, the model trajectory between times $t =
0$ and $t = 25$ was discarded. The assimilation experiments were
carried out during the period $t = 25.05$ to $t = 35$ where the model
trajectory was considered to be the 'truth'. Reference states were
then sampled from the true trajectory and a filter performance is
evaluated by how well it is able to estimate the reference states
using a perturbed model and assimilating a set of (perturbed)
observations that was extracted from the reference states.
In this work we consider two scenarios: one with a linear observation
operator and the other with a nonlinear operator. The concrete forms
of these two observational operators will be given in the relevant
sections below.
The time-averaged root mean squared error (rmse for short) is used to
evaluate the performance of a filter. Given a set of $n$-dimensional
state vectors $\{\mathbf{x}_k: \mathbf{x}_k =
(x_{k,1},\dotsb,x_{k,n})^T, k=0,\dotsb, k_{max} \}$, with $k_{max}$
being the maximum time index ($k_{max}=199$ in our experiments), then
the rmse $\hat{e}$ is defined as
\begin{equation}
\hat{e} = \dfrac{1}{k_{max}+1} \sum\limits_{k=0}^{k_{max}} \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n} \sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}
(\hat{x}_{k,i}^a - x_{k,i})^2 }\, ,
\end{equation}
where $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_k^a =
(\hat{x}_{k,1}^a,\dotsb,\hat{x}_{k,n}^a)^T$ is the analysis state of
$\mathbf{x}_k$.
A possible problem in directly using $\hat{e}$ as the performance
measure is that $\hat{e}$ itself may depend on some intrinsic
parameters of the filters, for instance, the covariance inflation
factor and localization length scale as to be discussed later. This
may lead to inconsistent conclusions at different parameter values. To
avoid this problem, we adopted the following strategy: we relate a
filter's best possible performance to the minimum rmse
$\hat{e}_{min}$, which is the minimum value of $\hat{e}$ that the
filter can achieve within the chosen ranges of the filter's intrinsic
parameters. In performance comparison, if the minimum rmse
$\hat{e}_{min}^A$ of filter $A$ is less than the minimum rmse
$\hat{e}_{min}^B$ of filter $B$, filter $A$ is said to perform better
than filter $B$.
\subsection{Implementation Details}
\label{exp:ini}
\subsubsection{Filter Initialization}
To initialize the PEnKF, we first estimate the mean and covariance of
the LE98 model over some time interval following
\citet{Hoteit2008}. These statistics are then used to produce the {\it
pdf} $p_0^f(\mathbf{x}_{0})$ of the background at the first
assimilation cycle as a MON.
Concretely, the LE98 model was first integrated for a long period
(between $t=0$ and $t=1000$) starting from an initial state that has
been drawn at random. The trajectory that falls between $t=50.05$ and
$t=1000$ was used to estimate the mean $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_{ds}$ and
covariance $\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{ds}$ of the dynamical system. To
initialize $p_0^f(\mathbf{x}_{0})$ as a mixture of $N$ Gaussian
distributions
\begin{equation}
p_0^f(\mathbf{x}_{0}) = \dfrac{1}{N} \sum\limits_{i=1}^{N} N(\mathbf{x}_{0}:\mathbf{x}_{0}^{f,i} \, , \mathbf{P}_{com}) \, ,
\end{equation}
where $\mathbf{x}_{0}^{f,i}$ are the means, and $\mathbf{P}_{com}$ the
common covariance matrix of the Gaussian distributions in the mixture,
we draw $N$ samples $\mathbf{x}_{0}^{f,i}$ from the Gaussian
distribution $N(\mathbf{x}_{0}:\hat{\mathbf{x}}_{ds},
\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{ds})$, and set $\mathbf{P}_{com} =
\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{ds}$. If $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_{0}^{f} = \dfrac{1}{N}
\sum\limits_{i=1}^{N} \mathbf{x}_{0}^{f,i}$ denotes the sample mean of
$\mathbf{x}_{0}^{f,i}$, then the covariance $\mathbf{P}_{0}^f$ of
$p_0^f(\mathbf{x}_{0})$ is given by
\begin{equation}
\mathbf{P}_{0}^f = \hat{\mathbf{P}}_{ds} + \dfrac{1}{N} \sum\limits_{i=1}^{N} (\mathbf{x}_{0}^{f,i} - \hat{\mathbf{x}}_{0}^{f} )(\mathbf{x}_{0}^{f,i} - \hat{\mathbf{x}}_{0}^{f} )^T \, ,
\end{equation}
which is always larger than $\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{ds}$. The rationale
behind this choice is not far from the covariance inflation technique
\citep{Anderson-Monte,Whitaker-ensemble}. In practice, a data
assimilation system is often subject to various errors, such as poorly
known model and observational errors, sampling errors, etc. In such
circumstances, an inflated background covariance would allocate more
weights to the incoming observation when updating the background to
the analysis, making the filter more robust
\citep{Jazwinski1970,Simon2006}.
\subsubsection{Covariance Inflation and Localization} \label{sec:inflation and localization}
Covariance inflation \citep{Anderson-Monte,Whitaker-ensemble} and
localization \citep{Hamill-distance} are two popular techniques that
are used to improve the stability and performance of the EnKF
\citep{Hamill2009,VanLeeuwen2009}, especially in the small ensemble
scenario. In our experiments, these two techniques are implemented for
each EnKF in the PEnKF.
More concretely, to introduce covariance inflation to the $i$th EnKF
at instant $k$, we multiply the analysis covariance
$\hat{\mathbf{P}}_{k,i}^a$ (before the re-sampling step) by a factor
$(1+\delta)^2$, where the scalar $\delta \geq 0$, called {\it
covariance inflation factor}, is introduced as an intrinsic
parameter of the EnKF. On the other hand, we follow the method in
\citet{Hamill-distance} to conduct covariance localization on the
background covariance and its projection onto the observation space,
with the tapering function (for smoothing out spuriously large values
in covariance matrices) being the fifth order function defined in
Eq.~(4.10) of \citet{Gaspari1999}. In doing so, another intrinsic
scalar parameter $l_c > 0$, called {\it length scale}
\citep{Hamill-distance}, is introduced to the EnKF. Roughly speaking,
$l_c$ is a parameter that determines the critical distance beyond
which the tapering function becomes zero.
\subsection{Experiments Results with a Linear Observation Operator}
\label{exp_linear:results}
In the first scenario, we let the (synthetic) observations be generated every day ($4$ model time
steps) from the reference states using the following linear
observation system
\begin{equation} \label{sim:lin_observer}
\mathbf{y}_k = (x_{k,1},x_{k,3},\dotsb,x_{k,39})^T + \mathbf{v}_k\, ,
\end{equation}
where only the odd state variables $x_{k,i}$ ($i=1,3,\dotsb,39$) of
the system state $\mathbf{x}_k \equiv (x_{k,1},\dotsb,x_{k,40})^T$ at
time index $k$ are observed. The observation noise $\mathbf{v}_k$
follows the $20$-dimensional Gaussian distribution $N(\mathbf{v}_k:
\mathbf{0}, \mathbf{I}_{20})$ with $\mathbf{I}_{20}$ being the $20
\times 20$ identity matrix.
\subsubsection{Effect of the Number of Gaussian Distributions}
\label{sec:lin_exp_c_vs_q}
In the first experiment we examine the effect of the number of
Gaussian distributions on the performance of the PSEnKF and the
PETKF. The experiment settings are as follows.
We initialize the pdf $p_0^f(\mathbf{x}_{0})$ with $N$ Gaussian {\it
pdf}s. In our experiments we let $N$ take values between $1$ and
$60$. Since it is costly to carry out the computation for each integer
in this interval, we choose to let $N$ increase from $1$ to $10$, with
an even increment of $1$ each time, and then increase it from $15$ to
$60$, with a larger increment of $5$ each time, as $N$ becomes
larger. For convenience, we denote this choice by $N \in
\{1:1:10,15:5:60\}$, where the notation $v_{min}:v_{inc}:v_{max}$
represents a set of values increasing from $v_{min}$ to $v_{max}$,
with an even increment of $v_{inc}$ each time. If there is a need to
conduct re-sampling, we re-approximate the analysis MON by a new MON
with equal weights and with the same number of normal distributions.
In doing so, we introduce a new parameter, i.e., the
fraction coefficient $c$ defined in \S~ \ref{sec:re-sampling}, to the
PSEnKF/PETKF. To examine its effect on the performance of the filter,
we let $c \in \{0.05:0.1:0.95\}$. The ensemble size is set to $m=20$
in each SEnKF/ETKF, which is relatively small compared to the system
dimension $40$. In this case, it is customary to conduct covariance
inflation \citep{Anderson-Monte,Whitaker-ensemble} and localization
\citep{Hamill-distance} to improve the robustness and performance of
the filters \citep{Hamill2009,VanLeeuwen2009}. The impacts of
covariance inflation and localization on the performance of the EnKF
have been examined in many works, see, for example,
\citet{Whitaker-ensemble}. In our experiments we let the covariance
inflation factor $\delta=0.02$. We follow the settings in
\citet[\S~7.2.3]{Luo2008-spgsf1} to conduct covariance localization
and choose the length scale $l_c=50$. To reduce statistical
fluctuations, we repeat the experiments for $20$ times, each time with
a randomly drawn initial background ensemble, but the same true
trajectory and the corresponding observations. The same repetition
setting is adopted in all the other experiments.
In Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nGMM_grayColor} we show
the rms errors of both the PSEnKF and PETKF as functions of the
fraction coefficient $c$ and the number $N$ of Gaussian {\it
pdf}s. First, we examine how the rmse of the PSEnKF changes with $c$ when $N$ is fixed. In Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_based_GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nGMM_grayColor}, if $N$ is relatively small (say $N<40$), the rmse tends to decrease as $c$ increases. For larger $N$ (say $N=55$), the rmse of the filter exhibits the bell-shape behavior: at the beginning it increases when $c$ grows from $0$; after $c$ becomes relatively large (say $c=0.4$), further increasing $c$ reduces the rmse instead. Next, we examine the behavior of the rmse of the PSEnKF with respect to $N$ when $c$ is fixed. When $c$ is relatively small (say $c=0.1$), the rmse exhibits the U-turn behavior: at the beginning it intends to decrease as $N$ grows; after $N$ becomes relatively large (say $N=45$), further increasing $N$ increases the rmse instead. When $c$ is larger, say, $c=0.6$, the rmse appears less sensitive to the change of $N$. However, for even larger values of $c$, say, $c=0.9$, the rmse appears to monotonically decrease with $N$.
The behavior of the PETKF (cf. Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:ETKF_based_GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nGMM_grayColor}) with respect to the changes of $N$ and $c$ is similar to that of the PSEnKF. Therefore we do not repeat its description here.
To examine the minimum rms errors $\hat{e}_{min}$ of the PSEnKF and
the PETKF within the tested values of $c$ and $N$, we plot
$\hat{e}_{min}$ of both filters as functions of $N$ in
Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nGMM_grayColor}. The
$\hat{e}_{min}$ of both filters tends to decrease as the number $N$ of
Gaussian distributions increases, though there also exhibit certain local minima. The PSEnKF achieves its lowest $\hat{e}_{min}$ at $N=60$, while the PETKF at $N=50$. As $N$ grows, both the PSEnKF
and the PETKF tend to have lower $\hat{e}_{min}$ than their corresponding base
filters, the SEnKF and the ETKF (corresponding to the PSEnKF and the
PETKF with $N=1$, as discussed in \S~\ref{sec:re-sampling}),
respectively. This confirms the benefit of accuracy improvement by
using the PEnKF instead of an EnKF. A comparison between the PSEnKF
and the PETKF shows that the PETKF performs better than the PSEnKF
when the number $N$ of Gaussian distributions is relatively small
(say, $N \leq 7$). However, as $N$ becomes larger, the PSEnKF
outperforms its ETKF-based counterpart instead. Similar phenomena can
also be observed in other experiments, as to be shown later.
\subsubsection{Effect of the Ensemble Size} \label{sec:lin_exp_n_vs_c}
In the second experiment we examine the effect of the ensemble size of
each SEnKF/ETKF in the PEnKF, on the performance of the
PSEnKF/PETKF. For reference, we also examine the performance of the
SEnKF and the ETKF under various ensemble sizes. The experiment
settings are as follows. For the PSEnKF and the PETKF, we let the
ensemble size $m$ of each EnKF take values from the set
$\{20,40,80,100,200,400,800,1000\}$. For a single SEnKF/ETKF, we
let $m \in \{20,40,60,80,100,200,400,600,800,1000\}$, with two more values at $60$ and $600$.
In the PSEnKF and the PETKF, we also vary the fraction coefficient $c$
such that $c \in \{0.05:0.1:0.95\}$. We fix the number $N$ of Gaussian
{\it pdf}s, i.e., the number of ensemble filters, to be $3$. To
conduct covariance inflation, we let the inflation factor
$\delta=0.02$. We choose to conduct covariance localization, and set
the length scale $l_c=50$, only if the ensemble size $m$ is not larger
than the dimension $40$ of the LE98 model. No covariance localization
was conducted if $m>40$. Our experience shows that, for $m>40$, the
benefit of conducting localization is not significant even if the
length scale $l_c$ is properly chosen, while an improper value of
$l_c$ is more likely to deteriorate the filter performance. To reduce
statistical fluctuations, the experiments are again repeated for $20$
times.
In Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} we show the rms
errors of the SEnKF and the ETKF as functions of the ensemble size
$m$. The rmse of the ETKF exhibits a U-turn behavior. The rmse of the
ETKF monotonically decreases as long as $m < 100$. Beyond that, the
rmse monotonically increases instead as $m$ increases. On the other
hand, the SEnKF exhibits a different behavior. Its rmse decreases for
$m \leq 200$, and then reaches a plateau where the rmse remains almost
unchanged as $m$ further increases.
Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nEn_grayColor} plots the rms
errors of the PSEnKF and the PETKF as functions of the fraction
coefficient $c$, and the ensemble size $m$ in the SEnKF and the ETKF
used to construct the corresponding PEnKFs. The rms errors, as
functions of the ensemble size $m$ (with fixed $c$), are consistent
with our observations in
Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor}. On the other
hand, for both PEnKFs, their rms errors tend to decrease as the
fraction coefficient $c$ increases.
Per analogy to the first experiment,
Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} plots
the minimum rms errors $\hat{e}_{min}$ of the PSEnKF and the PETKF
within the tested fraction coefficient $c$ and the ensemble size
$m$. A comparison between
Figs.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} and
\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} shows that, the minimum
rms errors $\hat{e}_{min}$ of the PEnKFs behave very similarly to the
rms errors of their corresponding EnKFs in
Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor}. Moreover, the values of $\hat{e}_{min}$ in
Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} tends to be
lower than the corresponding rms errors in
Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor}, indicating the
benefit of accuracy improvement in using the PEnKFs. Again, a
comparison between the PSEnKF and the PETKF shows that the PETKF
performs better than the PSEnKF when the ensemble size $m$ is
relatively small (say, $m \leq 40$). However, as $m$ becomes larger,
the PSEnKF outperforms the PETKF instead.
\subsection{Experiments Results with a Nonlinear Observation Operator}
\label{exp_nln:results}
In the second scenario, we introduce nonlinearity to the
observation system. To this end, we let the observations be generated
by the following nonlinear process
\begin{equation} \label{sim:nln_observer}
\mathbf{y}_k = 0.05(x_{k,1}^2,\dotsb,x_{k,39}^2)^T + \mathbf{v}_k\,
\end{equation}
for every $4$ model time steps. In Eq.~(\ref{sim:nln_observer}), again
only the odd state variables $x_{k,i}$ ($i=1,3,\dotsb,39$) of the
system state $\mathbf{x}_k \equiv (x_{k,1},\dotsb,x_{k,40})^T$ at time
index $k$ are observed. The observation noise $\mathbf{v}_k$ also
follows the $20$-dimensional Gaussian distribution
$N(\mathbf{v}_k:\mathbf{0}, \mathbf{I}_{20})$. We conduct the same
experiments as those in the case of linear observation operator.
\subsubsection{Effect of the Number of Gaussian Distributions}
\label{sec:nin_exp_c_vs_q}
We first examine the effect of the number of Gaussian
distributions. The experiment settings are the same as those in
\S~\ref{sec:lin_exp_c_vs_q}. Concretely, For either the PSEnKF or the
PETKF, the number of Gaussian distributions $N \in
\{1:1:10,15:5:60\}$, the fraction coefficient $c \in
\{0.05:0.1:0.95\}$. For each individual SEnKF/ETKF in the PEnKF, the
ensemble size $m=20$, the covariance inflation factor $\delta=0.02$
and the length scale $l_c=50$ for covariance localization. As before,
the experiments are repeated for $20$ times to reduce statistical
fluctuations.
Fig.~\ref{fig:GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nGMM_grayColor} plots the rms
errors of both the PSEnKF and the PETKF as functions of the fraction
coefficient $c$ and the number $N$ of Gaussian {\it pdf}s. When $c$ and $N$ changes, both the PSEnKF and the PETKF behave very similar to their counterparts in the linear case. The rms errors of the filters tend to decrease as $N$ increases, meaning that the PSEnKF/PETKF with $N>1$ in general performs better than the stochastic EnKF /ETKF
(corresponding to the case $N=1$ in the PEnKF), consistent with the results obtained in the linear observer case.
We also examine the minimum rms errors $\hat{e}_{min}$ of the PSEnKF
and the PETKF within the tested values of $c$ and
$N$. Fig.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nGMM_grayColor}
plots $\hat{e}_{min}$ as functions of $N$. For the PSEnKF, the lowest
$\hat{e}_{min}$ is achieved at $N=50$.
And for the PETKF, its $\hat{e}_{min}$ tends to decrease within
the tested range of $N$, and achieves its minimum at $N=60$. The PEnKF with more than
one Gaussian distributions ($N>1$) performs better than the
corresponding EnKF ($N=1$). In addition, a comparison between the
PSEnKF and the PETKF shows again that the PETKF performs better than
the PSEnKF when the number $N$ of Gaussian distributions is relatively
small, but tends to become worse as $N$ increases.
A comparison between Figs.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nGMM_grayColor} and \ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nGMM_grayColor} shows that the rmse of a filter (e.g. the PSEnKF at $N=2$) with a nonlinear observer sometimes may be lower than that of the same filter with a linear observer \footnote{The result of comparison would also depend on the filter in use, its configuration, the system in assimilation, and so on, and therefore may change from case to case.}. This seemingly counter-intuitive result happens possibly because in such situations, the effect of sampling error due to the relatively small ensemble size dominates the effect of nonlinearity in the observation system. However, as the number $N$ of Gaussian distributions increases, the effect of nonlinearity becomes more prominent so that the rmse with a nonlinear observer tends to be higher than that with a linear one. Similar phenomenon can also be found by comparing Figs.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} and \ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} with Figs.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} and \ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} (to be shown below), respectively, at different ensemble sizes.
\subsubsection{Effect of the Ensemble Size}
In the second experiment we examine the effect of the ensemble size in
each ensemble filter on the performance of the corresponding
PEnKF. For reference, we also examine the performance of the SEnKF and
the ETKF under various ensemble sizes. The experiment settings are the
same as those in \S~\ref{sec:lin_exp_n_vs_c}. In the PSEnKF and PETKF,
we choose the fraction coefficient $c \in \{0.05:0.1:0.95\}$. We also
choose the number of ensemble filters in each PEnKF to be $3$. For
each individual EnKF in the corresponding PEnKF, we let the ensemble
size $m$ take values from the set
$\{20,40,80,100,200,400,800,1000\}$, and for the experiments on the
single EnKF, we let $m \in
\{20,40,60,80,100,200,400,600,800,1000\}$. To conduct covariance
inflation and localization in each individual EnKF, we choose the
inflation factor $\delta=0.02$, and the length scale $l_c=50$. As in
\S~\ref{sec:lin_exp_n_vs_c}, covariance localization is conducted only
if the ensemble size $m$ is no larger than the dimension $40$.
Fig.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} shows the rms errors
of the SEnKF and the ETKF as functions of the ensemble size $m$. For
both filters, their rms errors decrease as the ensemble size $m$
increases. The ETKF performs better than the SEnKF in the small sample
scenario with $m=20$. But as $m$ increases, the SEnKF outperforms the
ETKF instead. In particular, divergence in the ETKF occurs if $m>400$,
which did not happen in the linear observer case
(cf. Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor}). On the
other hand, the rmse of the SEnKF appears to reach a plateau for
$m>400$, similar to the linear observer case. Comparing
Fig.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} with
Fig.~\ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor}, it is easy to see
that, except for the stochastic EnKF at $m=20$, the presence of nonlinearity in the observer
deteriorates the performance of the ensemble filters.
Fig.~\ref{fig:GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nEn_grayColor} plots the rms
errors of the PSEnKF and the PETKF as functions of the fraction
coefficient $c$, and the ensemble size $m$ in the corresponding SEnKF
and the ETKF, respectively. In the PSEnKF
(cf. Fig.~\ref{sEnKF_based_GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nEn_grayColor}),
the rmse tends to decrease as both $c$ and $m$ increases when the
ensemble size $m \leq 800$. However, when $m>800$, the impact of $m$
on the filter performance is not significant, which is consistent with
the results in Fig.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor}. On the
other hand, in the PETKF
(cf. Fig.~\ref{fig:ETKF_based_GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nEn_grayColor}),
filter divergence occurs for $m>200$, which is why we only report its
rmse with $m \leq 200$ in
Fig.~\ref{fig:ETKF_based_GMM_contour_fraction_vs_nEn_grayColor}, where
the rmse of the PETKF appears to be a monotonically decreasing
function of $m$ and $c$.
In analogy to the first experiment,
Fig.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} plots the
minimum rms errors $\hat{e}_{min}$ of the PSEnKF and the PETKF within
the tested fraction coefficient $c$ and ensemble size $m$. One may
observe that, similar to the SEnKF and the ETKF themselves, the
$\hat{e}_{min}$ of both the PSEnKF and the PETKF decrease as $m$
increases. However, for the PETKF, divergence occurs if $m>200$,
rather than $m>400$ as in
Fig.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor}, but overall its rmse
is closer to that obtained in the PSEnKF. Meanwhile, a comparison
between Fig.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_RMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} and
Fig.~\ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} shows that the PEnKFs perform better than the corresponding EnKFs. Also, a comparison between Fig. \ref{fig_lin:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} and \ref{fig:sEnKF_ETKF_based_GMM_minRMSE_vs_nEn_grayColor} shows that, except for the PSEnKF at $m=20$, the nonlinearity in the observer again deteriorates the performance of the ensemble filters.
\section{Discussion}
\label{discussion}
This paper presented a discrete solution of the optimal nonlinear
filter, called the particle Kalman filter (PKF), based on the Gaussian
mixture representation of the state {\it pdf} given the
observations. The PKF solves the nonlinear Bayesian correction step by
complementing the Kalman filter-like correction step of the particles
with a particle filter-like correction step of the weights. The PKF
simultaneously runs a weighted ensemble of the Kalman filters in
parallel. This is far beyond our computing capabilities when dealing
with computationally demanding systems, as the atmospheric and oceanic
models. Therefore, to reduce computational cost, one may instead
consider a low-rank parametrization of the Gaussian mixture covariance
matrices of the state {\it pdf}s. An efficient way to do that is to
resort to the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) and use an EnKF-like
method to update each component of the Gaussian mixture {\it
pdf}s. This amounts to running a weighted ensemble of the EnKFs. In
this work, the PKF was implemented using the stochastic EnKF and a
deterministic EnKF, the ensemble transform Kalman filter (ETKF). We
call this type of implementation the particle ensemble Kalman filter
(PEnKF).
The PEnKF sets a nonlinear Bayesian filtering framework that
encompasses the EnKF methods as a special case. As in the EnKF, the
Kalman correction in the PEnKF attenuates the degeneracy of the
ensemble by allocating the ensemble members far away from the incoming
observation relatively more weights than in the particle filter, so
that the filter can operate with reasonable size ensembles. To further
improve the performance of the PEnKF, we also introduced to the PEnKF
a re-sampling step similar to that used in the regularized particle
filter \citep{Musso-improving-2001,Stavropoulos-improved-2001}.
The stochastic EnKF and ETKF-based PEnKFs, called the PSEnKF and the
PETKF, respectively, were implemented and their performance was
investigated with the strongly nonlinear Lorenz-96 model. These
filters were tested with both linear and nonlinear observation
operators. Experiments results suggest that the PSEnKF and the PETKF
outperform their corresponding EnKFs. It was also found that the ETKF
outperforms the stochastic EnKF for small size ensembles while the
stochastic EnKF exhibits better performance for large size
ensembles. We argued that this happens because the EnKF endures less
observational sampling errors when the ensemble size is large. Another
reason would also be the better approximation of the PEnKF
distributions provided by the stochastic EnKF compared to the
ETKF. This was also true for their PEnKF counterparts. Overall, the
conclusions from the numerical results obtained with the linear and
nonlinear observation operators were not fundamentally different,
except that in general better estimation accuracy was achieved with the linear
observer when the sampling error is not the dominant factor.
The results also suggest that the PEnKFs could more benefit from the use of more components in the
mixture of normals (MON) and larger ensembles in the EnKFs in the
nonlinear observations case.
Future work will focus on developing and testing new variants of the
PEnKF that applies more efficient approximations, in term of
computational cost, to update the mixture covariance matrices. Another
direction for improvement would be also to work on localizing the
correction step of the particle weights \citep{VanLeeuwen2009}. Our
final goal is to develop a set of computationally feasible suboptimal
PEnKFs that can outperform the EnKF methods at reasonable
computational cost. As stated by \citet{Anderson2003-local},
developing filters in the context of the optimal nonlinear filtering
problem, rather than starting from the Kalman filter, should lead to a
more straightforward understanding of their capabilities.
The paper further discussed how the PEnKF can also be used as a
general framework to simultaneously run several assimilation
systems. We believe that this approach provides a framework to merge
the solutions of different EnKFs, or to develop hybrid
EnKF-variational methods. Work in this direction is under
investigation.

Q: Adding non editable NSTextField as a label into another NSTextField I am trying to implement a custom NSTextField that a) changes color when active and b) has a label in the top left hand corner.
I have the following implementation:
In TestTextField.h
@interface TestTextField : NSTextField
- (id)initFullWidthWithLabel:(NSString *)label andPreset:(NSString *)preset;
...
@end
In TestTextField.m
@interface TestTextField() {
BOOL _thisFieldIsActive;
}
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSTextField *label;
@end
@implementation TestTextField
- (id)initFullWidthWithLabel:(NSString *)label andPreset:(NSString *)preset {
self = [super initWithFrame:NSZeroRect];
if (self) {
_thisFieldIsActive = NO;
[self setFocusRingType:NSFocusRingTypeNone];
// small label top left
_label = [[NSTextField alloc] initWithFrame:NSZeroRect];
_label.stringValue = label;
if (preset) {
self.stringValue = preset;
}
else {
self.stringValue = @"0";
}
[self layoutUI];
}
return self;
}
- (void)turnActiveOff {
[self toggleActive:NO];
}
- (void)toggleActive:(BOOL)active {
_thisFieldIsActive = active;
if (_thisFieldIsActive) {
self.backgroundColor = [NSColor blueColor];
self.textColor = [NSColor whiteColor];
_label.textColor = [NSColor whiteColor];
}
else {
self.backgroundColor = [NSColor clearColor];
self.textColor = [NSColor blackColor];
_label.textColor = [NSColor grayColor];
}
}
- (BOOL)becomeFirstResponder {
NSLog(@"BecomeFirstResponder");
[self selectText:self];
[self toggleActive:YES];
return [super becomeFirstResponder];
}
- (void)textDidEndEditing:(NSNotification *)notification {
NSLog(@"DidEndEditing");
[self toggleActive:NO];
[super textDidEndEditing:notification];
}
- (void)layoutUI {
self.alignment = NSRightTextAlignment;
self.font = [NSFont fontWithName:@"HelveticaNeue-Light" size:32.0f];
self.layer.borderColor = [NSColor whiteColor].CGColor;
self.layer.borderWidth = 1.0f;
[self.layer setCornerRadius:4.0f];
// small label top left
_label.font = [NSFont fontWithName:@"HelveticaNeue-Light" size:12.0f];
_label.alignment = NSLeftTextAlignment;
_label.textColor = [NSColor grayColor];
_label.stringValue = [_label.stringValue uppercaseString];
_label.selectable = NO;
_label.editable = NO;
_label.drawsBackground = NO;
_label.bezeled = NO;
[self addSubview:_label];
NSDictionary *metrics = @{@"borderPadding": @5};
_label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO;
[self addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"H:|-(borderPadding)-[_label(100)]" options:0 metrics:metrics views:@{ @"_label" : _label }]];
[self addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"V:|-(borderPadding)-[_label(30)]" options:0 metrics:metrics views:@{ @"_label" : _label }]];
}
In my ViewController I implement these TestTextFields by simply calling the custom initFullWidthWithLabel:andPreset: method and adding them as a subview to the VCs view
I can see that the label gets positioned correctly, however as soon as the the field becomes active and the backgroundColor is set, it seems to cover up the label. How can I make sure the label stays on top?
Even when the backgorund coloring is turned off, the label remains hidden.
Thanks
A: The core of the solution was to use a custom subclassed NSTextFieldCell with one method:
- (NSRect)drawingRectForBounds:(NSRect)rect {
NSRect rectInset = NSMakeRect(rect.origin.x + 100.0f, rect.origin.y, rect.size.width - 100.0f, rect.size.height);
return [super drawingRectForBounds:rectInset];
}

Hi, I'm Jim. Last year I helped a friend build a book scanner, based closely on a guide he found on this site. You can see a picture of the result here (sans cameras and a few other details). Now I am thinking about building another one, in part because I no longer work at the lab where that one is located, but also to improve on the design based on our experience (and all the cool ideas I see on this site).
I'm also interested in getting up to speed on what people are doing in software to dewarp images. I have a little background in image processing at a different scale (satellite/aerial imagery) so I am curious to see if there is any useful overlap (correcting for surface distortions is, at least conceptually, a form of orthorectification, right?).
I just built my first cardboard box book scanner! Like Beatriz I'd been looking forward to the ION BookSaver but it was not meant to be. I was going to wait for a kit of the new standard scanner, but saw a link to the cardboard box and realized I had almost everything I needed to put one together.
So today I've scanned my first 96pg D&D module, realized I need a smaller piece of glass, figured out how to get Book Scan Wizard to work, and in general have been hooked.
A shot of my rudimentary rig is below. It's a Nikon D1x, being lit by an SB-28 flash, both in manual mode triggered by a remote release. I've shoved the flash in the handle of the file cabinet, but it puts it at the right place that I don't get reflections off the glass, and the flash swamps any room lighting and lets me shoot at minimal ISO and an f/8 aperture. It's a 28-70 f/2.8 lens so f/8 is right in its sharp point. The D1x isn't the highest resolution camera, but it does have a good sensor for being 11 years old, and with Adobe Camera Raw it gives me more horizontal resolution than the megapixels would indicate. It'll work for me, for now, until I can build a two-camera rig.
I must thank the many people here who have given tips and guides that have made it possible for me to put this together.
Hello, I've been interested in the concept of ebooks since the '80s, and as a practical matter would like to have my personal library available electronically. I have a good number of books and collect science fiction magazines, but I just don't have enough shelf space, so a lot of my books end up in boxes. I've gotten to the point where I don't like to buy a new book because it means another book will be boxed. I've considered ebooks for new purchases, but while ebooks are available in some cases, they usually have DRM, which I consider unacceptable: If I buy an ebook, I expect I should have the right to read it when I want to, whether now or twenty years from now, with whatever hardware I have at the time. I don't want ebooks where my right to read can be revoked, or that can't be read on future readers just because of some snag (for instance, the rights granting company going out of business or a company not allowing a format conversion for another device). Well, to sum up, I have pretty strong feelings on DRM in ebooks.
I've made previous attempts to scan my library, with a fair amount of effort, but it wasn't practical with flat-bed scanners, especially since I wouldn't destroy books to scan them. I'd resigned myself to the idea that I probably would never be able to do much with my library, but every so often I'd do a net search to see if anything changed. So, I was pretty surprised to see this site. It's great to see where a lot of ideas have been tried, and so I can see what works and what doesn't. Now I'm looking to build a scanner, though I'd like to try to build something a bit more stowable than the standard design.
Also, I might be trying some experiments with the Kinect for depth measurement. The new Kinect for Windows is supposed to have a "near field" close-in distance measuring option, though it isn't clear if you get higher accuracy out of it.
Anway, that's all I can think of for my intro, for now.
Wow, a book scanner using flash! That's new around here.
Welcome, everyone... really glad you're among us.
Hi, I am Joost, living in the Netherlands. As a volunteer I am taking part in FabLab Zuid-Limburg (Maastricht).
I am looking for people in the Netherlands / Belgium or Germany (North Rhine-Westphalia) who own, build or are building a bookscanner and maybe are prepared to asist in building one in Maastricht at the FabLab.
Another design that looks interesting would be to reverse the Book Saver design where reflections may interfere and put the cameras in a box. The image shown isn't actually for a book scanner, but rather a book projector, made by Tamtus. But making it as a scanner would be great if someone could come up with a design like these that worked.
I'm hoping someone on this site can come up with similar small, compact designs and sell them to us non-builders.
Hi everyone, I'm David. I'm a database administrator in my day job, and like to read in my spare time.
I've read ebooks for a long time - I used a Franklin eBookman for many years until my wife bought me a Kindle, which is great.
I've got hundreds of paper books sitting in my bookshelves which would be nice to have in electronic form as well, so I figured I give making a scanner a try.
I enjoy working on projects even though I'm not very good at construction.
Here's a photo of my progress on a scanner so far. It's mostly particleboard, initially hot-glued together then fastened with wallboard screws. I bought a Canon A495 from Amazon for $50 and mounted it on a hinged frame over the V platform.
Today I'm planning to add two lights onto the hinged frame on either side of the camera, then try to figure out whether to use an acrylic or a glass platen. As soon as I add the lighting and platen, it should be ready to test.
My main concerns are how much this can be automated. I have an old copy of ABBYY FineReader which works great, but seems to be designed such that each file has to be manually selected, OCR'd, browsed for errors, then manually saved.
While that's great for making 100% perfect copies, one at a time, it just won't work for scanning 200 paperbacks of about 400 pages each. I'd be better off with an OCR that may only convert at 95% but which is able to be run as a batch job, to convert 400 files automatically.
Anyway, this is my progress; I'm happy to have gotten started, and I really appreciate how so many people have shared their designs.
Since my original post went lost cause of the hacking I better post something similar again.
Hi, my name is Jakob and I'm from Denmark, living in the town of Randers.
I've been photo copying books since the mid 1990's and flat bed scanning a little (mainly short articles) since the 2000's. I have a BA in history and for some years studied to take a MA degree in the same subject but never managed to complete my master thesis (not an uncommon problem here). During my study years (started in 1997) I copied quite a lot of books and also got a large number of articles from periodicals as copies since the university library (also the State Library) offerede free photocopies of them. You just placed your order and picked up the copies two days later.
After giving up on the studies I worked for a few years and put in to many hours to really have much time for reading. Currently unemployed for some time I however have more time and realised that I now still can get free copies of articles but now in the form of scans (low quality though). Most of the time much better than having a bunch of papers and I can always print them if I need a paper version.
Not long ago I needed to make a copy of a chapter in a book from the library but I didn't want to go through the slow process of flat bed scanning and at the same time the prices of photo copies on the library are quite high and by the letter of the law here that was my only option since it's not allowed to copy copyrighted material at copy shops, even though it's perfectly legal for me to make the copy.
So I found myself taking pictures of the chapter with the book in the window for lighting. And realising that this was something that could really work great for making copies in general if I worked a little on it. Thanks to Google I soon found myself here.
At the moment I'm at the early stages of thinking about building a book scanner but I figured I better sign up so I could interact with other builders and perhaps sometime give my input. My plans so far is to build something like the DIY Kit but I need to modify it a bit since I have some books for scanning that are a little to large (1-2 cm) and using a CNC is pretty much ouf of the question for me. | {

Q: Datatables dot net Button's Not Displaying In DataTable Good Morning,
I am new to Polymer and Datatables.Net. I have inherited an application with datatable. I was told the buttons used to display but sometime in the last few months they have vanished. I was looking through the code and found where they are declared. According to the documentation on the Datatables.net site looks correct (https://datatables.net/extensions/buttons/).
I do notice a couple things in the Chrome Console Window that may or may not be related:
Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/plain: "http:///protected/lib/bower_components/datatables-buttons/css/buttons.dataTables.scss".
Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/plain: "http:///protected/lib/bower_components/datatables-buttons/css/mixins.scss".
Resource interpreted as Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/plain: "http:///protected/lib/bower_components/datatables-buttons/css/common.scss".
Here is the table declaration:
<link rel="import" href="../../../bower_components/polymer/polymer-micro.html">
<!-- Bower Components Start -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../../../bower_components/datatables/media/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css">
<script type="text/javascript"
src="../../../bower_components/datatables/media/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../../../bower_components/datatables-buttons/css/buttons.dataTables.scss">

<script type="text/javascript"

<!-- Bower Components End -->
<style>
#wrapper {
height: 100%;
}
#buffer {
height: 100%;
padding: 20px;
}
</style>
<template>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="buffer">
<table id="table" class="stripe row-border cell-border compact" cellspacing="0" width="100%"></table>
</div>
</div>
</template>
<script>
Polymer({
is: "table-test1",
properties: {
plottedProperties: {
type: Array,
observer: "_propertiesChanged"
}
},
attached: function () {
this._initTable();
},
_initTable: function () {
var instance = this;
this.dataTable = $(this.$.table).DataTable({
scrollX: "100%",
scrollY: "100%",
data: [],
info: true,
paging: true,
dom: 'lB<"profileSelection">frtip',
buttons: [],
columns: [
<SOME COLUMNS HERE>
]
});
}
});
</script>
*** Update
I have replaced
../../../bower_components/datatables-buttons/css/buttons.dataTables.scss
with:
https://cdn.datatables.net/buttons/1.1.0/css/buttons.dataTables.min.css
Still no buttons appear. When I create a test application outside Polymer the buttons show up with no issues. Any ideas?

Robin Celikates's recent book, entitled Kritik als soziale Praxis. Gesellschaftliche Selbstverständigung und kritische Theorie (Criticism as Social Practice: Social Self-Understanding and Critical Theory), published by Campus Verlag in 2009, is undoubtedly one of the most significant contributions made to the field of critical theory over the past few years. If there is one major problem with this volume, it is the fact that it has still not been translated into, let alone published in, English. Given the conceptual precision, methodological rigour, intellectual originality, and thought-provoking argument of this study, one can only hope the volume will soon be available in English, so that its timely relevance and scholarly quality can be appreciated by a wider international readership in general and by Anglophone researchers working in the humanities and social sciences in particular. It is not often that one reads a book from cover to cover and has the pleasant experience of noticing that every single paragraph, and indeed every single sentence, is carefully crafted, meticulously organized, and thoroughly researched. One must congratulate the author for putting together a long-needed treasure of a book which makes a convincing case for the view that the very possibility of critical theory depends on its capacity to ground itself in the normative potentials and everyday disputes of society, rather than in the abstract concepts and sterile epistemic frameworks of armchair philosophy. In order to illustrate the complexity of Celikates's ambitious endeavour, this review article shall provide a succinct overview of the main arguments and contributions, as well as of several noteworthy shortcomings and limitations, of Kritik als soziale Praxis.

Czequestria organization team
Though it seems that the entire Czequestria is organized just by a few people, the reality is completely different. Dozens of people participate in the preparations, ensuring the success of both LARP and the convention weekend, as each one contributes to the common goal: have a fun MLP-themed weekend for us all.
And who are those people who brought the idea of the CZ/SK My Little Pony convention to life? There are many, but they all deserve a big thank you!
Main organizers (Core staff)
Jaroslav Haken (Jamis)
One of the founders of CZ/SK bronies z.s. association and chairman of Czequestria. When he does not work on coordination, PR, or necessary paperwork, he visits brony meetups and conventions all around the world (be it in Europe, the US, or Japan). He likes to visit new places, seek new friends, and sometimes can't stop talking about it. You can recognize him easily at the conventions: Gala Fluttershy cosplay, which sometimes causes his appearance in TV reports, is hard to miss. Besides the association, he works as a network and server administrator.
Daniel Novák (Melgarh)
In brony fandom known as Melgarh or #Forbes, one of the founders of CZ/SK bronies z.s and Czequestria vice-chairman. Also, the moderator of the bronies.cz board and event organizer.

Miroslav Valeš (Pajzl)
He joined the community in 2012 and became an active member since then. Over time, he has taken the accountant agenda of CZ/SK Bronies z.s. and with the invaluable help of pipa, he's in charge of staff organization and security to all official events, including Czequestria. With endurance and enthusiasm for fun of all kinds, with the beginning of Christmas brony meetups, he takes on the role of PajzlKlaus and distributes the Christmas gifts at the annual Winter meetups. He spends most of his time with a hookah in a tea room "Na Cestě" or hunting game achievements.
Antonín V. (Antošík)
Antošík, a "random" person who occasionally likes to help others with their visions and a man who likes to see nice things in the world. Sometimes he draws ponies. He was in charge of Czequestria vendors, communication with community guests, and helps both at Czequestria and in CZ/SK bronies z.s. association. Sometimes he acts shy, but when he's needed, he's always willing to help.
Martin Kolář (Wander Fox)
He contributes to the community with digital art and you can see him in Miss Libussa fursuit at the conventions.

In his hometown of Bratislava, he participated in the organization of small and big meetups, but the study of software engineering led him to Prague, where he plans to continue in this activity. His hobbies include watching family series, playing games – board games or computer ones – meeting friends, and hiking.

Vojta Fišer (tydlitele)
The first time he showed up among bronies at the first Winter Karaoke event, he arrived in Scootaloo costume sewn together with a stapler and on his own scooter. At the 4th Big Prague meetup, he joined the organization team as a sound engineer – since then, he's done this job at all the events, not just Czequestria and its party. Recently, he has been earning some money as a sound engineer as well. Passion for Scootaloo remained with him even after years, so together with his scooter, you could meet him at Czequestria LARP. Currently, he is studying at the FNSPE at Czech Technical University, which makes him quite busy. He also focuses on computers and technologies in general, scouting, photography, and music.
Tomáš Malínský (d'Artagnan)
From the fall of 2013, when he joined the fandom, he offered the help as a sound engineer, and this role – together with Vojta – remained with him until today: they act as an inseparable duo for everything regarding sound and audio. A man who does not spoil any fun and a hard worker who willingly helps with any task that is at least a little bit possible. In addition to sound engineering, he also provides transportation of material and people to Czequestria and other cons and meetups according to current needs.
Ladislav Hüttl (Fang)
Quiet by nature, he began to be interested in brony fandom around the fall of 2012, first as a "closet brony". He began to participate actively after the Fantasy Festival 2013. In the autumn of the same year, he started to visit brony meetups mainly in Prague and the surrounding area. Everything culminated in a visit to the US BronyCon in 2014 and again in 2016. In the beginning, he translated comics into Czech, now he is often filming conventions and brony meetups. He participates in the administration of czequestria.cz, czskbronies.cz websites and Twitter @Czequestria. Sometimes he helps with logistics and administers the networks that connect Czequestria (or meetup) attendees to the Internet. At Czeqestria, he mainly takes care of live-stream and processing panel recordings and entire events into nice videos.
Michal Frolík (Frolda)
Frolda helped CZ/SK bronies crew since first Czequestria as a translator regarding LARP, to which he also contributed as an NPC and occasional staff member. Later he was appearing on a stage as a narrator, first under "Kancelář Frolík", later as a supporting narrator on Karaoke and since Czequestria 2017 as a cosplay contest narrator, as he was always very close to cosplay and cosplaying. On the last Czequestria, he also helped with invitation and support for Czech voice actress guests as he is active in the voice acting community. Apart from the organization, he loves to write and translate. His time is especially dedicated to the translation of Fallout Equestria and also to write stories and work on his books.
Kateřina Jindrová (Nephala)
When we met for the first time, she was very shy and did not want to join us, telling us that "she's not a member of the high brony society". In the end, we convinced her that we are not any chosen closed elite group, and since Czequestria 2015 she oversees workshops organization. She also ran the Czequestria tearoom which was very popular among visitors. Despite occasionally acting a little uncertain, she takes all her given tasks seriously.
Jan Smetana (Xsoft)
Xsoft, according to his seventh visit to Japan, seems to be quite interested in it. And he just travels there to play the music games he has loved and been playing since 2004. That's where Trotmania came from – DDR in the pony version and for four people. His activities do not end here but just begin. You know the PowerPonies radio, fan movies The Schmetterling, adventure games in the woods, panels, competitions, various convention spicy stuff, or PowerPonies.com sites. For Czequestria, he prepared the RPG and search game – PowerPonies: GO – with QR codes and also a very accurate brony con-chair simulator videogame.
Ondřej Klement (Claymon)
The organizer of the Pilsen brony meetups since 2012. At Czequestria and the big events, he works in the position "I do everything that's needed". Primarily, however, it is logistics and the transfers of impossible things and people to impossible places in impossible times. In private life, he works as a repair technician in the Pilsen Škoda Heating Plant. Hobbies include many ball games, keyboard destruction while playing PC games, military warfare equipment collection from the era of the Vietnam war, and creating a constant stream of sarcastic commentaries.
Graphics designers and artists
Anna G. (Aya Yai)
Although Aya has been known among Czech and Slovak bronies since 2013 as the author of the mascot of Prague – Miss Libussa, she creates designs for Czequestria regularly. At the con itself, she participates mainly as the self-appointed chief of all the dress room staff. She is also a venerable lover of cute animals, bad and good coffee, and beautiful literature. In her spare time, she likes to browse the Internet, draws, writes, sleeps, and watches animated series and horrors.
Kateřina Waning (Cwossie)
What is gray and has wings? Pigeons? Derpy? Griffon? Yes, and also Cwossie, who's a bit of each! Cwossie is the author of con-guide covers and guest portraits, as well as an active Tweeter who puts words into Libussa's mouth. If you are a frequent European brony cons visitor, you might have spotted this long-time pony fan in one of their many cosplays from MLP universe.
Denisa Keřlíková (Dyonys)
Dyonys has been in the bronies fandom since early times and started to participate actively since Czequestria 2015 as a staff member. She has been learning art since her childhood. Currently, he draws predominantly ponies, but also characters from video games, other fandoms, or her OCs from time to time. Sometimes, she may seem crazy to friends, but she just tries to make them laugh and make fun of everybody, although to anyone who does not know her she may seem shyer than Fluttershy.
Kristýna Zipperová (Light)
Memes? Ponies? That's exactly her cup of tea! Not only does she draw with watercolors as if for life, but she also participates in the organization of conventions at many places in Europe. At first glance, she may look a bit crazy, but you will definitely like her smile and especially art. After all, it kind of belongs together, doesn't it?
Markéta Polesná (MesuYoru)
Mesu became interested in MLP in 2012, and her life started to change. Despite being an extreme introvert, she began organizing smaller meetups in the harsh north – now, she's a co-organizer of the North Brony Reunion and author of one of the meetup mascots. She absolutely adores Czequestria and will never miss it. In 2019, she joined the graphic team and created portraits of Libussa on the tickets, Epona-style Libussa on the T-shirts, and the posters with Harmony pillars. In her free time, she spends her days in the garden, drawing, reading fantasy, watching cartoons, playing games, and listening to symphonic or power metal.

Former members of the org team
Since 2014, when Czeuqestria was held for the first time, there are also others who are no longer active in the brony fandom or have moved from an organizational team to less time-consuming tasks and participate in LARP or as volunteers on site. Thank you for your work – we don't forget about you either!
Pavel Doležal (pidi)
Also known as "Piano Zecora" from the end of GalaCon 2013, where he got his cutie mark for playing piano at the closing ceremony (and the opening ceremony the following year). He lived in New Zealand for one year, likes to travel to interesting places and talk about it. Currently, he works as a programmer, spends his spare time playing with technology, music, and looking for new challenges. He has been involved in the organization of cons since the beginning, and always willingly helps with everything needed – from logistics to panel moderation. Today, you could see him at LARP as Zecora and at the con itself mostly in the kitchen at the bar next to the main hall.
Karel Doležal (Kája)
Pony since January 2012. Occasionally draws and partially because of brony meetups, he moved to Prague. At larger events, he usually assists as staff. At Czequestria in 2015 and 2017, he was in charge of the charity auction, which means a lot of paperwork. Microchip and electronics enthusiast, craftsman, ex-drummer. The professional programmer worked on a medical application for pacemakers, currently for networking hardware. He would like to program games but finished none of them so far. He also likes ASMR and is always kind and loyal to his friends. | {

The Hunger Games: Safe & Sound
December 24, 2011 December 24, 2011 by James Agee, posted in Movies, Music, Pop Culture
With the anticipation of The Hunger Games movies just months away everyone was excited to hear about a new single released from the soundtrack that features Taylor Swift and The Civil Wars! It was quite shocking to learn that Taylor Swift is going to be a part of the original motion picture soundtrack, but then again they do need amazing artist to assist the hopefully amazing movies that they have made to accompany the fans of the book series. As of now no other news about the soundtrack has been released, but you can buy this song on iTunes now! The new question that remains is who else will be on the whole oficial soundtrack once it is released? That is a question that only Lionsgate, and time can answer!

The series is set in the future and is pretty much about these kids who are randomly selected from their home districts to fight to the death in an arena. Now, since this book has become so popluar Lionsgate made it into a film.
Filming for the movie began in May in North Carolina. It was wrapped up in early September. The movie should be released in March but it hasn't been said where Lionsgate will hold the premiere.
Only one additional movie has been confirmed so far. Catching Fire is to be released on November 22, 2013. The company has a deal that encompasses four movies even though there are only three books. However, this does not mean that four movies will be made.
This movie stars Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen, Liam Hemsworth as Gale Hawthorne, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta Mellark, Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket, Woody Harrelson as Haymitch Abernathy, Amanda Stenberg as Rue, Alexander Ludwig as Cato, and Lenny Kravitz as Cinna. There are eight movie posters out depicting these characters.

Ok, i've been looking at something for a while and a BM was chatting to me about fantasy football of which you are interested and play on other web sites.
Now we can install in to the forum which will allow you to play against other BM so here's my questions.
Is it worth installing and setting up..?
I'm not a fantasy football person and i don't know anything about it so we would need at least a fantasy football mod and someone to point out the parameters too me and help me set it up.
Absolutely, was thinking about this earlier as well, as it's near the end of this season. Know a few of us do it anyway.
Depends how you want to do it, or how complicated you want to make it I suppose.
Don't know anything about installing it onto here, someone can just set up Thailand 24/7 league and post the codes for people to join, then competitors can update as and when they win etc. | {

Sardar Azmoun – A New Chapter at Zenit
Futbolgrad 0 February 4, 2019 10:23 pm
Rumours have accompanied the 24-year-old striker Sardar Azmoun throughout Iran's 2019 Asian Cup campaign. The Iranian forward guided his national side to the semifinals were Japan eliminated Iran.
Sardar Azmoun scored four goals to become joint second best striker of the tournament behind Qatari forward Almoez Abdulla. As a result, of an excellent tournament, Azmoun was targeted by several clubs in Western Europe and was also linked with a move to the Major League Soccer side Vancouver Whitecaps.

Ultimately, his agent, however, was adamant that Sardar Azmoun would either stay in Russia or move to a sizeable European club to continue his development. Meanwhile, his club Rubin Kazan needed money to overcome financial problems caused by years of mismanagement that ultimately led to a ban from European competitions.
Sardar Azmoun – What can he bring to Zenit
Football players in Russia only pay the country's flat income tax rate of 13% on their salaries. Money matters and with this, in mind it was always difficult to compete for other clubs when Zenit voiced their interest and got the deal done for €12 million.
Furthermore, Zenit found themselves with plenty of cash to spend after they sold Leandro Paredes to Paris Saint-Germain for €55 million, in what was an excellent piece of business for Russia's richest club. The money earned from Paredes took care of potential Financial Fair Play problems and also left enough to invest in the squad.
Investment that has been needed given that Russia's richest club had found themselves under pressure in the league thanks to a resurgent Krasnodar. Towards the back end of the first half of the season, Zenit struggled as the main striker Artem Dzyuba seemingly ran out of steam thanks to a lengthy World Cup campaign and Zenit having to start the season early in Europa League qualifying.

On top of that Dzyuba's backup Aleksandr Kokorin was involved in a major scandal that saw the forward arrested and in jail since the fall. Hence, Zenit were desperate to strengthen their forward line with a player that could not just replace Artem Dzyuba should he go down with an injury but also play with the striker.
Although like Dzyuba Sardar Azmoun is a striker with an immense aerial presence — he has been compared with former German striker Karl-Heinz Riedle in the past. Furthermore, Azmoun can also play a more dynamic attacking role next to a physical striker, which would allow head coach Sergey Semak to play Dzyuba and Azmoun together in a 3-4-3/3-5-2/4-2-3-1 setup.
Sardar Azmoun – Scouted
Signed for €12 million Sardar Azmoun scored four goals and four assists in 14 games for Rubin Kazan this season. He added another goal in three Russian Cup games.
Including the Asian Cup Sardar Azmoun has managed to complete 41.4% of his 58.1 actions per 90 minutes. On average he has scored 0.37 goals and 0.21 assists per game this season. As suggested above Azmoun is excellent in the air winning 43.7% of his on average 8.86 aerial duels — in comparison, Dzyuba has won 41.8% of his on average 12.99 aerial duels.
Overall, Dzyuba has better numbers than Azmoun this season. The Russian national team striker has won more offensive duels, had more progressive runs and has been a more dangerous goalscorer.
But Azmoun, despite playing further back in the field, leads Dzyuba with touches inside the penalty box. That statistic, in particular, is fascinating given that Azmoun, according to the Wyscout heatmap likes to play further back than Dzyuba. While Dzyuba mostly spends time inside the penalty box, Azmoun spends most of the 90 minutes just on the edge of the box.
In fact, Sardar Azmoun likes to spend time in that area of the pitch to capitalise from his tantalizing speed. One example is his goal against China. In that game he received a ball of an extended header just outside the box and without breaking stride took the ball on and hammered the ball in to make it 1-0.
It is that speed and ability to quickly break forward that made Sardar Azmoun a perfect player for his former head coach Kurban Berdyev at Rostov and Rubin. Berdyev loves quick counter-attacking football, and Azmoun is the perfect weapon for that tactic. With this in mind, Azmoun will be a great complimentary player for an already impressive Zenit attack and should work well in concert with Russian forward Artem Dzyuba.

The Audio Research Team was an interdisciplinary research and production group based in the Georgia Tech Music Department. For two years I worked as assistant director of this group. As a part of this group, I led or contributed to projects focusing on data sonification, spatial audio, and large-scale multimedia. Our signature endeavor was StarChild, a multimedia opera which debuted during an arts festival prior to the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games. The group also supported the music technology classes at Georgia Tech.
Audio Research Team members (Left to Right) Alec Robinson, Jean-Paul Bulot, Jeff Clark, Ryan Feagin, Shawn Chaffin, and Jarrell Pair evaluate the custom eight channel surround audio system designed for StarChild: the Opera. | {

Turkish daily SABAH newspaper (05.03.07) reports, under the banner headlines in its front page Is he in Turkey who is missing for 33 years?, on the issue of a five-year old Greek Cypriot boy named Christakis who is missing since an operation had been carried out by the Turkish occupation Forces in Palaikythro village during the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus.
The paper quotes the article by POLITIS newspaper, and reproduces the photographs published by POLITIS.
SABAH in its inside pages reproduces a photograph of Christakis�s mother Mirofora�s picture with her grandson and next to it with a subtitle: Foreign Ministry Denied. It says: The Foreign Ministry informed that similar unfounded reports are published in the Greek Cypriot press time to time.
(MHY)
Turkish daily HURRIYET newspaper (05.03.07) reports that, Egypt, which signed an oil exploration agreement with the Greek Cypriot administration, has indicated that it will review this agreement and it will not put it in force. Egypt, will put the agreement on the negotiation table together with Turkey and it will renew it taking into consideration Ankara�s views.
The Turkish Foreign Minister, Abdullah Gul had met with the Foreign Minister of Egypt, Mr Abdul Gheit and the Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Wealth Mr Sameh Fahmi, who had signed the agreement with the Greek Cypriots, and warned that from Ankara�s point of view this agreement is not a joking issue.
During the meeting, HURRIYET reports, Gul and Gheit agreed that there will be reciprocal visits by delegations from both countries regarding the issue.
An experts delegation from the Turkish Foreign Ministry will go to Egypt and then an Egyptian delegation headed by Egypt�s Minister of Petroleum Mr Fahmi will visit Ankara.
HURRIYET reports, that the Egyptian side had informed the Turkish side that it will review the agreement it had signed with the Greek Cypriots in such a way that it will not harm Turkey.
A senior Turkish source has interpreted this as follows:
Egypt, because of its position in the Arab world, from the diplomatic point of view, cannot say we have shelved the agreement. It will review the agreement and it will inform the Greek Cypriots that the oil explorations will not definitely, include the area between Turkey and the TRNC. In fact, once the reviewing process starts, diplomatically this means that the implementation of it will be postponed 10-15 years.
HURRIYET further reports that there is preparation that if the Cyprus government continues to sign similar agreements with the neighbouring countries then Turkey will sign a similar agreement with the self-styled regime in the occupied territories of the Republic of Cyprus.
A senior Turkish source said:
We are not starting an initiative towards this aim, in order not to affect the peace process in Cyprus negatively. However, if the Greek Cypriots provocative stance continue, then we will do what is deemed necessary.
We do hope that this issue does not come to that stage and a lasting solution can be secured in the island as soon as possible.
In addition Turkish daily ZAMAN newspaper (05.03.07) reports that the Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul met with his Iraqi counterpart, Hoshyar Zebari, during his visit to Cairo. The meeting with Zebari, a Kurd, came amid a heated debate between the government and military in Turkey over whether there should be talks with the Iraqi Kurds.
Under the above title Turkish Daily News newspaper (03.03.07) publishes the following by Barcin Yinanc:
International companies interested in the possibility of exploring oil and gas deposits off Cyprus' coast have been warned by Turkey not to go ahead with their plans on participating in a tender launched by Greek Cyprus last month, diplomatic sources told the Turkish Daily News.
Five international companies have contacted Greek Cyprus over the tender, Greek Cypriot Commerce Minister Antonis Michaelides was quoted as saying by international news agencies on Feb. 15.
Although Michaelides declined to name the companies, the Turkish government drew a short list of those companies believed to have shown interest in Greek Cyprus' drive to explore oil and gas. Some of them have wide business links with Turkey. The Greek government has said U.S., Russian and Chinese oil firms have shown interest.
Prior to the launching of the tender, Greek Cyprus signed agreements with Lebanon for the delineation of an undersea border in January to facilitate future oil and gas exploration, which had prompted reaction from the Turkish government. A similar agreement was signed between Egypt and Cyprus last year. Turkey warned Lebanon and Egypt not to press ahead with the deals saying Turkey and the Turkish Cypriots also had rights in the region.
Any crisis between Turkey and European Union member Greek Cyprus could further complicate Turkey's relations with the EU, which has decided to slow down accession negotiations with Ankara over its refusal to open ports and airports to Greek Cypriot vessels and planes.
The Turkish government launched a diplomatic campaign towards the EU, as well as the interested countries such as the U.S., Russia and China, over the Greek Cypriot government's latest initiative, believed by Ankara to stir instability in the region.
Some oil companies believed to have shown interest were contacted by Ankara, Turkish Foreign Ministry sources told the TDN. Some were contacted directly, in the case of Dutch Shell and some indirectly in the case of French Total.
According to Turkish officials, the companies were told the bilateral deals Greek Cyprus had signed with Lebanon and Egypt are not recognized by Turkey. They were briefed on the peculiar situation of the eastern Mediterranean and told that the delineation of the continental shelf or of exclusive economic rights in the eastern Mediterranean is only possible through arrangements that would take into account the rights and interests of all parties. They were also told Turkey will not allow attempts to erode its and Turkish Cypriots' rights.
The countries from which those companies originate were also contacted by Ankara. They were told to discourage these companies from going ahead with their plans on Cyprus. Some of the countries and companies confirmed to Turkey that they do not want to be a part of deals over controversial areas, whereas it was not possible to get any feedback on the issue like in the case of France.
Turkish Cypriot daily SOZCU newspaper (05.03.07) under the titles Talat is pessimistic and Talat: If the Greek Cypriots continue their stance, division will be inevitable, reports that the Turkish Cypriot leader, Mehmet Ali Talat met yesterday at his office with some journalists and answered their questions regarding the recent developments in Cyprus. He said that there is no progress on the Cyprus problem, that there have been some problems between himself and the army and that there are some worries. Mr Talat said that they are searching for a solution and that there is not a complete impasse, but there is no progress. Mr Talat alleged that the Greek Cypriots rejected the changes that the UN wanted and that the UN solution plan has been demonized. Mr Talat said that their relations with the Organization of Islamic Conference member countries are at a good point and that they have established relations in the fields of trade and economy with some countries. He also noted that representations have been opened in some countries and alleged that the Greek Cypriots do not want a solution and in case this stance continues the issue will be led to division.
Turkish Cypriot daily CUMHURIYET newspaper (05.03.07) refers to Talats statements under the title Its time to see the realities.
In addition Ankara Anatolia news agency (03.03.07) reports from occupied Keryneia that Mr Talat stated that the Greek Cypriots did not bring up the oil issue in order to benefit from the petroleum richness.
"Firstly, they want to say that 'they are sovereign in Cyprus'. Secondly, there will be elections in the Greek Cypriot part next year. Trying to attract votes by making promises on the petroleum issue is a part of this endeavour," Talat said.
Meeting journalists from Istanbul in occupied Keryneia, Mr Talat noted that he discussed the Direct Trade Regulation with EU Commissioner for Enlargement Olli Rehn, during his recent visit to Brussels. Stressing that the regulation would be a remarkable step, Talat said, "Enforcement of the Direct Trade Regulation will transfigure TRNC's economy".
Talat emphasized that direct flights constituted a critical step concerning the removal of isolations and added that this was not an easy phase to get over and they would continue to carry out activities to achieve this goal. Talat also stressed that they would not settle for the removal of isolations; however, it would be a remarkable step towards a comprehensive solution in the island.
Replying to a question on the famous "halloumi" cheese of Cyprus as well, Talat said the Greek Cypriots were trying to register halloumi as a regional product within EU. Talat said that halloumi was a product produced jointly by Turkish and Greek Cypriots for centuries. "If the Greek Cypriots register the product this way, as they will not include TRNC in the process, even Turkey will have difficulties with purchasing this product from us due to Customs Union. This is a great danger for us," Talat said.
Upon another question, Talat declared that the term of the "Turkish Community" used by EU, did not satisfy them. "We are a nation, the nation of Turkish Cypriots. I do not expect to be called as the 'TRNC President' at this phase; however, I would prefer to be called 'the leader of Turkish Cypriots' rather than 'leader of the Turkish Cypriot Community'," Talat underscored.
Replying to a question on his assessments regarding the period needed to reach a solution on the Cyprus issue, Talat said, "It is not possible for me to foresee a period. Like Europeans say, 'It takes two to tango'; however, Greek Cypriots do not want to play".
In addition Illegal BAYRAK Television broadcast the following:
Mehmet Ali Talat has stated that the launching of direct flights to Ercan Airport will be the starting point for easing of the international isolation on the TRNC.
Success will come as we pass over this critical threshold Mr Talat said. His remarks came during a gathering in Merit Crystal Cove Hotel yesterday morning.
Speaking to journalists from the Turkish media, Mehmet Ali Talat stated that there are many difficulties in the way of starting direct flights but added that TRNC was ready to launch a legal battle against the challenges it faced.
Underlining that the adoption of the Taiwan model is unacceptable, Mr. Talat said that the Turkish Cypriots demanded the reinstatement of it rights stemming back from the 1960 Republic of Cyprus. Even if the international isolations are lifted, we will not abandon our political will for a comprehensive solution to the Cyprus Problem he added.
Commenting on the military pact signed recently between the Greek Cypriot Administration and France, Mr Talat said that the agreement does not exist for the Turkish Cypriot Side nor is it valid.
Earlier speaking on a television program, the President of the Republic criticized the agreement that was signed between France and the Greek Cypriot administration and said that we had in the past warned France not to sign such agreements with the south.
Noting that he had met with the French Ambassador to Cyprus and had written a letter to the French President regarding the issue, Talat said the Turkish Cypriots will not tolerate such agreements.
Turkish Ankara Anatolia news agency (04.03.07, in English) broadcast the following from occupied Keryneia on statements made by Ferdi Sabit Soyer, self-styled prime minister of the breakaway regime:
Expressing that Turkish politicians failed to fully identify on time the new models of relations arousing from the EU enlargement process, PM of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) Sabri Soyer said: �Unfortunately, Greek Cypriot administration unilaterally became an EU member. The biggest problem faced by TRNC and Turkey is this. We have to overcome this obstacle, and we will.�
Soyer got together with journalists from Turkey that are in Cyprus upon an invitation from the TRNC President Talat at the Merit Hotel.
�Turkish side failed to understand the new dimensions brought about by the EU enlargement process on the Cyprus issue and insisted on maintaining its stance�, said Soyer.
Commenting on the Helsinki and Luxembourg summits Soyer said, with the 1999 Helsinki decision to give candidate state status to Turkey, Turkey has accepted a decision that falls outside its long pursued �Cyprus can't become an EU member before Turkey does policy and added that inability to interpret the process accurately created cramps in relations. Greek Cypriot administration became a member, but this republic that became a member is against international law, EU principles and UN resolution�, said Soyer.
Soyer expressed the need for acceleration in the UN process for the solution of the Cyprus issue.
Stressing the importance of economic development and growth, Soyer pointed out that the GNP of TRNC rose from 985 million Euro in 2002 to 2 billion Euros in 2006.
Drawing parallels between EU member Malta with a GNP of 4 billion Euros (with a population close to TRNC's population and with less natural resources) and TRNC, Soyer said, �if we managed to raise our GNP from 985 million Euro to 2 billion Euro under these circumstances of isolation, but with the financial and morale support of Turkey and the creative force and motivation of our people, then to say that our next aim is to reach the GNP of Malta is not an empty claim.�
Subtitle: HELLIM
Commenting on the recently discussed "hellim" cheese issue as well, Soyer expressed that TRNC exported hellim worth 30 million USD last year and said they implemented a 15 million-USD subsidy while doing this.
Stressing that Greek Cypriots were trying to block their "hellim" exports, Soyer noted, now there is a big fight going on in Brussels. Greek Cypriots are trying to obtain a regional product patent for halloumi. However, it is the product of a collective geography.
Subtitle: INVITATION AS "TRNC PREMIER"
Moreover, being reminded the invitation he received from a German state as the "Prime Minister of TRNC", Soyer said both TRNC President Mehmet Ali Talat and himself acted carefully while establishing such international contacts and relations.
Soyer said that Greek Cypriots created tension upon this invitation and added, �Because, this means the appearance of Turkish presence in Cyprus�.
Turkish Cypriot daily KIBRIS newspaper (05.03.07) reports that a delegation from the Turkish Cypriot Chamber of Commerce (TCCC) under its chairman Erdil Nami and a delegation from the Turkish Cypriot Chamber of Industry (KIBSO) departed yesterday for South Korea through Istanbul upon invitation by the South Korean Chamber of Commerce and Industry. According to a statement issued by the TCCC, the aim of the visit is to strengthening the relations with the third countries, explaining the realities of Cyprus and developing the economic relations.
Mr Nami will sign a cooperation protocol with the Korean chamber. Nami said that for the first time a cooperation protocol will be signed with a third country except Turkey. Mr Nami noted that tomorrow they will organize a seminar at the Korean chambers headquarters on the Business environment in the TRNC and explain the realities in Cyprus. They will also give information on the fields of the economy, tourism, education, constructions, industry and investments in the occupied areas of Cyprus. Mr Nami said that they will call on the Korean businessmen to make joint investments and cooperate with their Turkish Cypriot colleagues.
(I/Ts)
Turkish Cypriot daily KIBRIS newspaper (05.03.07) reports that Ozdil Nami and Hasan Tacoy, MPs from the Republican Turkish Party (CTP) and the National Unity Party (UBP) respectively, are visiting Brussels today in order to hold contacts on the issue of the report of the European Parliaments High Level Contact Group with the Turkish Cypriots, which will be discussed on 15 March. Asked whether or not they will participate in the meeting of the Group on 15 March, Nami said that this depends on the results of their meetings today, but it might not be needed for them to participate in this meeting.
Turkish Cypriot daily HALKIN SESI newspaper (05.03.07) reports that Enver Ozturk, self-styled minister of tourism and economy, has said that one of the main problems which their tourism sector faces is the fact that no direct flights to their illegal airports can be conducted. In statements during a meeting with 23 representatives of Turkish media, Mr Ozturk said that they will take the necessary measures for overcoming this problem.
He noted that the off-shore banks have obtained a new structure as international business enterprises and added that their aim is to promote these companies to the world. He said that their aim is to increase the beds in the fields of tourism from 13.600 to 40.000 in 2012.
Turkish Cypriot daily VATAN newspaper (04.03.07) reports that a Russian website named Regnum, known for its proximity to the Armenian positions, has argued that the Arab world is preparing to recognize the TRNC, breakaway regime in the occupied part of the Republic of Cyprus.
Invoking a source who is expert on the Middle East politics, the above-mentioned site argued that the Arab countries will recognize the breakaway regime in March. It is also alleged that the American Foreign Secretariat is evaluating the recognition of the TRNC within the second half of this year.
Turkish Cypriot daily YENI DUZEN newspaper (04.03.07) reports that upon initiative of the Municipality of Sydney 15.160 books have been donated to the library of the illegal Near East University (YDU) from Sydney. According to information acquired by the university, this is the biggest donation of books ever made to the library since its establishment.
Ankara Anatolia (02.03.07) reports the following from Brussels:
Turkey has prepared a 'road map' of the necessary reforms for a future accession to the EU which it will submit soon, perhaps before the end of March, to the European Commission. The announcement was made today by Turkey's Economy Minister and chief EU negotiator Ali Babacan, during a meeting in Brussels organised by the European Policy Centre. The plan prepared by the Ankara government contains a list of all institutional reforms and the deadlines Turkey has set for itself to reach each stage.
"Our priorities are in the 'road map' - Babacan said - because we want to show Europe we have serious intentions and we are working with precision on each of the chapters rejected by the Commission", in December. The minister reminded that Brussels itself, together with the German EU Presidency, said it was ready to re-open the talks on four chapters by June. "Our relations with the EU have not been interrupted, we hold regular meetings both in Ankara and in Brussels," Babacan explained, pointing out that Turkey has much to do together with Europe, especially as regards foreign relations. "We want to discuss with the EU our strategies for Iraq, Iran, the Palestine and Lebanon which we could not face so far because the talks were interrupted before reaching the chapter on the relations with the other countries," the chief negotiator said, emphasizing that Ankara has a strategic position from the geopolitical point of view, being on the border between Europe and the Arab world.
As regards the accession process interrupted last December, "which caused a widespread feeling of frustration among the Turks", the minister explained that the Cyprus problem was only the facade behind the real motivation. "Cyprus was an excuse," Babacan said, but confirmed the support to the Turkish Cypriot community "until it is not freed from the isolation in which it finds itself currently." "And a real solution to the issue of the island divided between the Turkish and Greek communities, he concluded, can be found only within the UN to which the government in Ankara continues to appeal."
Istanbul Cihan News Agency (02.03.07) reports that an investigation has been opened against the former president retired General Kenan Evren, who is better known as the leader of a military coup in 1980, over his controversial remarks on decentralization of power in Turkey.

Warrior's Edge CBD Review
Written by Cathy Rozyczko — Edited by Jason Brett on February 9, 2021
Salt Lake City-based Warrior's Edge delivers exactly what its name promises. The company is focused on promoting CBD oils and other items that help veterans and first responders battle through any mental or physical pain they may have developed after dedicating themselves to their country. The company also hopes to help other "warriors" stay on top of their game through their cannabidiol products. And Warrior's Edge follows up on this promise in other ways, donating part of all proceeds to several different nonprofits which cater to veterans and first responders, and offering a 20% discount for former or currently active military members.
To Warrior's Edge, a passion for product and a love of country are one in the same.
The company wants to give back to those who have already given so much to America, by offering a batch of products that not only help battle-wizened performers stay in peak shape, but naturally combat all number of ailments that could come after a tour in the military, including pain, depression, anxiety, and PTSD.
Warrior's Edge also works closely with a number of organizations dedicated to helping the troops, and its closest partner on this front is the 501c3 Warrior's Ascent, which helps veterans and first responders overcome PTSD through holistic wellness programs. A portion of all Warrior's Edge proceeds goes toward these charitable organizations.
The company seems equally dedicated to product safety, with lab results for all of its full-spectrum CBD oil products available on its site. Items for sale include CBD tinctures ($45-$80), cannabidiol body balm ($40), and various case sizes of single-serving CBD "shots," though these include sodium benzoate, a commonly-found preservative that's more-or-less safe, but may have some adverse effects if mixed with Vitamin C, studies have shown. (The remainder of the products fill out the rest of their ingredients lists with all-natural substances).
Still, while we laud the company's dedication to help veterans and non-veterans alike power through physical and psychological adversity with the use of CBD, we wish they'd have a bit more for us on their actual cannabidiol. We don't see any mention of where their CBD is sourced from, their preferred CBD extraction method, or any farming practices that may or may not be used on their agricultural hemp.
Bottom Line – Warrior's Edge is hyper-focused on helping service members past and present battle against some of the psychological and physical ailments that may stem from tours of duty, and this mission gets accomplished on several fronts: The company both offers proof that its CBD oil is safe and gives part of its proceeds away to other organizations dedicated to helping veterans and first responders. Still, the site lacks some other vital information on where and how their hemp is sourced and their CBD extraction method of choice, and its products line, though solid, is not quite innovative, so we can't make them a five-badge general.

Badges For Warrior's Edge CBD
Quality Unverified
Warrior's Edge CBD has not been verified to disclose both the geographic source of their hemp plus a clean CBD extraction method.
Lab test results and Certificates of Analysis (CoAs) are available on the site for each product or product line, detailing the quality and clarity of the company's cannabidiol.
Warrior's Edge works with a number of 501(c)(3) organizations dedicated to veterans and first responders, but its primary partner on that front is the non-profit Warrior's Ascent. A portion of all the company's proceeds goes toward these ventures. Veterans and first responders are also eligible for a lifetime discount.
The company's mission is as fierce as its name: It hopes to help customers stay at the peak of their game, offering products that help users battle some of life's toughest ailments. Warrior's Edge is also dedicated to giving back to the warriors it's named after, working closely with non-profits that give back to veterans and first responders.
Innovation Unverified
Warrior's Edge CBD has not been verified to offer innovative practices, technology, and/or products in the CBD space.

New Melones Lake level has dropped 2 ft. since June , currently at 1043.69 ft. and 44.31 ft. from full. Water temperature across the lake is equivalent to a cool swimming pool. With summer breaking out and the 4th of July week here, Glory Hole Sports will be open all week to keep you in tackle, baits and water toys! Celebrate Independence day and be safe.
As the weather warms to full summer temps, the trout will go deeper searching cooler waters making it tougher for bank fishermen. Trollers are doing good, the top bait the last couple weeks have been using wedding rings, kastmasters and needlefish. Angels Creek arm, main lake, and spillway are where you'll find trout.
Cash Hilmanofski of Angels Camp landed this trout in 20 ft. of water using a Kastmaster in rainbow.
The Kokanee are slamming the bait on New Melones with limits of the landlocked salmon being caught. Best time for the bite has been in the morning, tapering off later in the day.
Jim Dirickson and crew of Angels Camp brought in nine Koks trolling 40 ft. of water on the main lake. Pink Hoochie, sling blade with a kokanee special scent was the go to for their outing.
Bass on the lake seek shelter as we all do when it gets hot. Hit the lake early morning with your bait of choice, top water, jigs, or maybe some some drop shot. Fish all day, find some shady cove in the afternoon and you'll have plenty of bass to net.
8 year old Abby Radetich is prepping herself for the future pro circuit this next year landing this bass. This is what memories are made of... and she thought they were just fishn.
Catfish are coming out at night. Drop a line with some cutbait, hang a bell on the end of your pole and go fish. Tuttletown coves and by the dam have been good places to fish cats.
Pretty much anywhere there is shelter, shaded coves, structure, submerged trees, you'll find crappie.
Ellery Stevenson of Fresno got on the lake early up Angels Creek Arm and had his game on landing a limit by 6:30 am. Ellery was using Crappie Jigs in pearl, white. | {

On stormy nights, Gothic is said to disappear and on its return, it brings lost souls back from the dead. — The legend of Gothic California
Today in Gothic's Encore! Vintage Resale Shop
Encore! owner Minnie O'Hall led Wendy to a locked door. "Go backstage and hunt for the props you need. Remember to be careful! In its day, before it was a movie theater, this place was Maeve Lindholm's fully functioning playhouse. There are trapdoors and ropes and curtains everywhere."
"I'll be careful," Wendy promised.
"Open the trunks and take whatever strikes your fancy. We'll square it with you later." Minnie pulled a big, old-fashioned iron key from her fanny pack, unlocked the door and opened it with a creak that would have done the Addams's family proud. "Lock the door behind you. Tourists try to sneak in everywhere." She handed Wendy the heavy key and gave her a push.
Wendy stumbled inside.
With a resounding thunk, Minnie shut the door, and for a moment, it reminded Wendy of a prison door closing…forever.
She looked up the dim, narrow stair into a swirl of dust lit by some unseen window or skylight. Or had the fog crept backstage in the theater…?
The air here at the bottom of the stairs seemed dense; it was hard for Wendy to catch her breath. The sensation of being trapped, shut in a dark closet, quickly grew. She needed to get out of here before something jumped out and shrieked, "Boo!"
Wendy fit the heavy key in the lock, turned it and locked herself in. Rather than bounding up the stairs in her usual style, she moved cautiously. Which, she assured herself, wasn't because it felt as if she would confront some unhappy old theater ghosts, but because of Minnie's warnings about trapdoors and curtains and props.
When she got to the top, the vista opened up to show her a backstage littered with boxes and trunks. It looked as if everything had been abandoned in a panic. Feather boas and wide women's hats draped netting hung on hooks. She collected those, and the tear-away gathered skirt and bustier that made up some medieval costume. She forgot her trepidation; this seemed like a treasure hunt, and as she gathered each item it pricked her imagination.
She threaded her way through the dusty velvet curtains to the stage where, yes, theater ghosts lingered. She faced where that plywood wall separated the stage from the clothing shop. If the wall wasn't there, if it was 1940, she would be facing the auditorium. Surely she should be able to hear the voices of the tourists in the clothing shop…but back here, it was so quiet she could hear the floor creak when she took a step. She'd lived in Gothic for six years, but never had she had a moment when she thought the local legend was true…until now.
Giving in to impulse, she caught up the cape draped across the trunk, flung it around her shoulders, faced the plywood wall and took a low bow. She faced stage left, and took another bow, stage right, and another. She could almost hear the roar of applause, which made her laugh at herself. Removing the cape, she wrinkled her nose at the musty smell and placed it in her bag.
The onstage steamer trunk called her name, figuratively, she assured herself, so she started there. It had been well-packed; the leather straps had been pulled through the buckles, tightly fastening the domed lid. She worked the leather free, flipped the metal clasps, and with an inhale of anticipation, she opened the lid.
She expected a flutter of moths or a funky smell, but instead it smelled like…the theater, a smell she knew well from her high school years. She'd been a stage manager, a stunt woman, and yes, a costume designer, and now she reached into the contents and pulled out a long, blond wig. "Wow," she whispered. She shook it, no vermin fell out, so she placed it on her head and reached for the next piece, a skimpy leather skirt. She knotted it around her waist, took the companion piece, a leather halter, and tied it around her chest. She went to stand in front of the mirror; her dusty rose jumpsuit molded her shape and with the blond wig and the costume, she looked like some Hollywood producer's idea of Tarzan's Jane.
And she needed to stop fooling around and gather props. She should be able to get everything she needed out of that one trunk, and she headed back and leaned in. She didn't take off the costume; she figured Minnie would get a laugh out of that…
She heard a whistling noise. Something heavy and hard struck her on the back of the head. The light changed. Stars swirled in a vortex.
She collapsed into the trunk and realized—oh, God, the trunk had been placed on top of a trapdoor. She fell. And fell. And never hit bottom.

MANCHESTER UNITED'S recent injury crisis might just have helped them beat a host of rivals to a transfer.
The Red Devils have seen off competition from Arsenal and Manchester City to land Dutch wonderkid Tahith Chong.
It was quite the U-turn for the 16-year-old to make after he said in January that he would stay put at Feyenoord.
According to Football Insider, the recent progress of academy starlets Marcus Rashford, Cameron Borthwick-Jackson and Timothy Fosu-Mensah has encouraged him to make the move to Old Trafford.
Louis van Gaal has had to make do with a patched-up squad in recent weeks after losing a host of players to injury and Rashford has been the pick of the youngsters.
NEMANJA VIDIC is back as a Manchester United ambassador and is helping the Red Devils kick off their pre-season tour to China.
The 18-year-old bagged a brace in his first two games against FC Midtjylland and Arsenal and netted the winner in last weekend's Manchester derby.
Borthwick-Jackson, 19, caught Van Gaal's eye with his performances as left-back in place of injured duo Luke Shaw and Marcos Rojo.
While utility player Fosu-Mensah, 18, has impressed in his four league appearances.
United spotted Chong when he played in a youth tournament at their Carrington training ground last summer and talks are at an advanced stage.
Feyenoord thought they would be able to keep Chong when he brushed off the transfer interest in January.
He said: "Feyenoord is and remains my first choice and we are still negotiating.
"It's true that Manchester United are interested in me, but I want to just stay at Feyenoord.
"There is absolutely no question that I'm going out of the club." | {

By Lenie Lectura – March 1, 2018
from Business Mirror
PHINMA Energy Corp.'s net income plunged 75 percent to P347 million last year, from P1.383 billion in 2016.
In its disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange, Phinma Energy said the "margins in the electricity supply business were challenged by continued low market prices due to the competitive supply environment."
The company, formerly Trans-Asia Oil and Energy Development Corp., said the income it registered in 2016 was mainly due to several transactions that year.
For one, it was in December 2016 when the company booked a P472-million gain on the sale of its 5-percent share in South Luzon Thermal Energy Corp. to Axia Power Holdings Philippines Corp. The company also sold that year transmission lines in Guimaras and La Union to the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines.
Also in 2016, Phinma Energy booked approximately P830 million in recurring income from electricity supply and income generated from independent power producers, and P81 million in financial and other income.
Despite a dismal performance last year, Phinma Energy ended 2017 as the second-largest single electricity supplier with a market share of 12.2 percent. The company also declared regular dividends of P0.04 per share for shareholders as of record date of March 14 and payment on April 5.
The company earlier entered into a Solar Energy Service Contract with the Department of Energy, granting it the exclusive right to explore, develop and utilize the solar energy resource in a 648-hectare area in the municipality of Bugallon, Province of Pangasinan.
"Predevelopment activities, such as yield assessment, environmental-impact study and system-impact study are under way and are expected to be completed within the year," it said.
The term of the service contract is 25 years, extendable for another 25 years. | {

Q: Is there Number spinner control for ios? I'm looking for a spinner control something similar to this for ios:
http://github.hubspot.com/odometer/docs/welcome/
can't find anything so far, please share if you know any.
A: there is one third party library , by which you can do this https://github.com/Rizh/RCounter
https://github.com/naked-apps/NACounter
https://github.com/jonathantribouharet/JTNumberScrollAnimatedView
A: The nearest thing in iOS, similar to this is UIPickerView. You can create a UIPickerView in the Interface Builder or through code.
Next, make your class conform to UIPickerViewDataSource and UIPickerViewDelegate.
In your viewDidLoad: method, assign the delegate and dataSource of the UIPickerView to the respective class.
And finally add the following methods to your class.
// The number of columns of data
- (int)numberOfComponentsInPickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView
{
return 5;
}
// The number of rows of data
- (int)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView numberOfRowsInComponent:(NSInteger)component
{
return 10;
}
// The data to return for the row and component (column) that's being passed in
- (NSString*)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView titleForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component
{
return [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%ul",row];
}

Ford adds jobs to meet soaring demand for electric F-150 Lightning
Joann Muller, author of What's Next
Ford's first F-150 Lightning pickup truck prototypes are rolling out of the factory in Dearborn, Mich., for real-world testing. Photo: Ford Motor
The electric Ford F-150 Lightning pickup hasn't even gone on sale yet, but demand is so hot that the company is already expanding production.
Driving the news: The first Lightning prototypes are leaving Ford's Dearborn, Mich., factory for real-world testing, with the truck available to customers next spring.
But with 150,000 "pre-orders" in hand, Ford said today it will invest an additional $250 million and add 450 more jobs to boost production at the EV assembly plant and two nearby component factories.
The moves will help increase production capacity to 80,000 trucks a year.
Why it matters: Many have questioned whether truck buyers would trade their gas-powered workhorse for an electric pickup that needs to be plugged in every day. Ford's decision to expand production capacity shows that the company is increasingly confident the answer is yes.
What they're saying: "We knew the F-150 Lightning was special, but the interest from the public has surpassed our highest expectations and changed the conversation around electric vehicles. So we are doubling down, adding jobs and investment to increase production," said executive chairman Bill Ford.
Details: The new $250 million investment follows $700 million invested last year to prepare Ford's historic Rouge manufacturing plant for electric vehicle production.
What to watch: The F-150 Lightning, which starts at $40,000 and aims to provide up to 300 miles of driving range, goes on sale next spring.

Report: The ocean wind economy will need lots of space
Recreated from DNV; Note: Estimates begin after 2018, the most recent year with complete data; Chart: Jacque Schrag/Axios
The evolution of ocean-based industries — the "blue economy" — will include a huge increase in demand for marine areas for wind turbines, a new report finds.
The big picture: The advisory and risk management firm DNV is out with detailed analyses of ocean industries in the coming decades.

Data: FRED; Chart: Axios Visuals
The supply-driven setback in industrial production in August and September is now looking more like a temporary blip.
Driving the news: Production rose 0.5% in November, and within that, manufacturing activity gained 0.7%, new data out from the Federal Reserve show.

Scoop: LED screen startup raises $10M seed round

A year after Vū Studio took over former retail spaces at University Mall, its founders say they've raised the biggest seed round ever for a Tampa tech company.
What's happening: Tim Moore and Jonathan Davila tell Axios their production company has received a $10 million seed investment from Minnesota-based ADX Labs, at a $50 million valuation.
The funding will help advance the tech and open new studios in Nashville and Las Vegas next year.
What they do: Vū uses an LED Volume screen made up of 500 panels to create realistic backdrops that can move and change along with camera angles.
It's as close as you can possibly be to a location without actually being there and what Davilla calls "game engine technology combined with traditional production."
In the year since Vū opened, it's been used by brands like WWE, Mercedes, Apple, and Neiman Marcus along with artists like Bad Bunny and Twenty One Pilots.
What they're saying: "Green screen is going to go totally extinct and be replaced by this technology," Davilla said. "It's just so much more realistic looking."
"And you'll never miss a shot."
Why it matters: This is the kind of technology that got projects like "The Mandalorian" made when the pandemic stopped people from filming on location.
Vū is one of only a handful of similar studios in the country and claims to be the nation's first LED Volume virtual production company specializing in commercials.
Virtual production is set to expand into a multi-billion dollar industry, Davilla said, and Tampa is at the forefront of that.
"This is a real blue ocean opportunity."
Background: The studio is part of Rithm at Uptown, the tech campus taking over the mall along with other innovators like the USF program designing the future of casualty-free warfare.
💭 Selene's thought bubble: This place is beyond cool. My jaw was dragging on the floor the whole time. I can't wait to see where this goes and who it brings to Tampa. | {

Press photographers need not enter. That's basically the message organizers of megastar Beyonce Knowles' ongoing "Mrs. Carter Show World Tour" have reportedly told the media.
According to photography blog Fstoppers, Beyonce's tour guidelines for photographers stated: "There are no photo credentials for this show." Instead, media was directed to use pre-approved images for their editorial coverage.
This closed access is likely the result of the "Unflattering Beyonce" memes that spread earlier this year, as explained in the video above.
Following the singer's highly-acclaimed performance at this year's Super Bowl, BuzzFeed published images of the "33 fiercest moments" from the halftime show—some of which were certainly awkward moments. Beyonce's publicist was reportedly not happy with some of those awkward photos and asked BuzzFeed to take them down.
Despite the professional photography ban for this tour, one wonders: what about the fans who attend shows with their camera-enabled iPhone and Android smartphones? It may be difficult to really stop them from distributing or selling those phone pics to the public and media.
Beyonce's tour organizers are not the first to implement such restrictions: According to Poynter, The Killers have not allowed outside photographers at a concert, and Lady Gaga has asked some photographers to sign photo release forms with certain stipulations.
What do you think about this press photo ban at Beyonce shows? Is that unfair or does the culture of celebrity scrutiny warrant the ban? Share your own thoughts in the comments. | {

Our vintage, antique and pawn Navajo bracelets and others are either USED or NEW. They come from inheritances, estate sales, private collections, and store liquidations. Many vintage silver bracelets and vintage stone bracelets are brand new (NOS, New Old Stock) and in perfect condition while other antique bracelets and pawn bracelets may show tarnish, scratches and other signs of use. Major issues will be described in detail and shown in photos. Vintage Shop bracelets are sold as described and are not returnable.
Bracelets listed by wrist size from smaller to larger.
If you don't have a cuff bracelet to use for comparison, then measure your wrist where you want to wear the bracelet. There are several ways to do this. Read more . . . | {

Stan Schwartz
He has been described "a class act" by the media, "conscientious" by his colleagues, and "professional" by anyone who has had the pleasure of working closely with him. He is an individual who has garnered affirmative public recognition in our community, and has done so with great character and dignity. The Calgary Booster Club is extremely proud to honour Stan Schwartz as the 2004 Sportsperson of the Year.
Over the past 48 years, Stan Schwartz has made significant contributions to sport within amateur and development levels as well as the professional ranks. While best known for his role as President of the Calgary Stampeder Football Club from 1996 until 2003, Stan has influenced much of Calgary's sport community in his quiet and unassuming manner. Stan has managed to blend his professional responsibilities with his commitment to amateur sport, creating many opportunities for younger athletes. Stan, along with Tony Anselmo, has been instrumental in the development of McMahon Stadium as a multi-purpose facility that now functions as a first-class venue for several hundred amateur events every year.
Stan was born and raised in Southern Alberta, near Medicine Hat. In his earliest pursuit of athletics, he participated in community and school sports where he excelled in football and track and field, winning awards in both disciplines.
Stan's dreams took him to Mount Royal College and the University of Calgary where he played football and earned a degree in Physical Education and an Alberta Teaching Certificate. In 19/0, the Calgary Board of Education hired Stan and his wife Shirley. In 1972 they left for graduate school, moving to Indiana State University where Stan coached football and received a Master of Science degree in Sports Medicine before returning to Calgary. Over the years, Stan coached high school football, wrestling and track and field. He guided a bantam football team to the City and Provincial Championships. He also acted as the defensive coordinator with the Calgary Mohawks Junior Football Club. He was heavily involved as a wrestling coach, coaching a city high school championship team, participating in the World Amateur Wrestling Coaches Camp and serving as an assistant coach for the Alberta Junior Olympic Team. Stan also served as an athletic trainer and conducted training clinics for the Calgary Board of Education. He spent much of his personal time building football practice equipment that continues to be used by some Calgary high schools today. He spent an equal amount of time building fitness equipment and organizing work out spaces for the use by students. In 1976, Stan started his eight-year career as an Assistant Coach with the Calgary Stampeders. Stan left his coaching position with the Calgary Stampeders and became Manager of McMahon Stadium. In preparation for the XV Olympic Winter Games, Stan and his staff oversaw the $30,000,000 expansion of the Stadium. In addition, Stan contributed many volunteer hours working with the various OCO '88 management personnel, committees and volunteers. Stan returned to the Stampeder fold as Vice-President and General Manager – Administration. In 1996 he was elevated to President of the teams that won Grey Cups in 1998 and 2001. Stan acted as The Calgary Stampeders' representative on the Canadian Football League Board of Governors for eight years. During his association with the Calgary Stampeders and the Calgary Stampeder Alumni Association, successful fundraising campaigns have raised close to two million dollars in support of various Calgary football programs.
The recognition, respect and praise that Stan Schwartz has received from his community underline the high regard that Calgarians have for him. The Calgary Booster Club has recognized Stan previously as an Honored Athletic Leader (1999). In 2000, as recognition of over 30 years of support for high school football, the Calgary Senior High School Athletic Association introduced a trophy in the name of Stan Schwartz. The trophy is awarded annually to the top Calgary high school volunteer football coach. In 2003, Stan Schwartz was inducted onto the Calgary Bantam Football Wall of Fame for his outstanding contribution towards the foundation of bantam football in Calgary.
Stan is a tireless worker, never seeking the public acknowledgement that has quite naturally attended him, committing his life work to the sports community. It is the vigorous dedication of Stan Schwartz that has made a positively indelible mark on the face of Calgary Sports. | {

Pupils at Orleton Primary School have been enjoying their new pond and conservation area, created with the help of funding from the Kingspan Insulation Community Trust.
The children at Orleton Primary School have been busy creating a safe and welcoming space for local wildlife at their newly-reopened pond area, renovated with the help of funding from the Kingspan Insulation Community Trust.
The Kingspan Insulation Community Trust awarded the school £5,500 to enlarge the existing pond and install a large decked area ideal for pond dipping, even in wetter weather. A wide variety of native Herefordshire pond plants has also been planted to improve biodiversity and encourage new creatures to visit the wildlife area, particularly amphibians. To further support this, the grant has been used to create an 'amphibian island' and hibernacula, offering the frogs and toads a safe space when the children are pond dipping. The rest of the grant money has been used to support the installation of a new safety fence and purchase new pond dipping equipment to help pupils study the new flora and fauna. | {
