The original name for the dance was Sitnata (Macedonian: | small/fine one). Tanec changed the name to Kopačka and the dance subsequently became so famous that the villagers adopted this name of Kopačka for both the dance and the name of their group, to remind everyone whence this dance originally came.

He has produced remixes for key house labels Deep Dish, Deep Vision, Yoshitoshi and Credence, plus major labels Universal and Warner Bros. under a number of aliases including Buick Project (with songwriter and producer Andy Chatterley), Mansdisco, One + One (with James Zabiela), Skylark and The Alchemistas. Fanciulli earned a Grammy nomination for ‘Best Remixed Recording (Non-Classical)’ in 2006 for his Buick Project remix of ‘Damage’ by Tracey Thorn. He has also remixed Underworld, Fleetwood Mac, Kylie Minogue, Groove Armada, The Juan MacLean, Gorillaz, Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa, Jamie xx and U.N.K.L.E. That same year Fanciulli was invited to appear on Radio 1's Essential Mix, lauded by host Pete Tong. He has since appeared on the Essential Mix a further two times, once in November 2017 and again in August 2018 back-to-back with Steve Lawler live from ANTS at Ushuaïa Ibiza Beach Hotel in Ibiza. Fanciulli was also inducted into Pete Tong's Hall Of Fame in 2015. Fanciulli also secured a year-long residency on Radio 1 in 2005, hosting his own regular show throughout the year. In 2005, Nic launched a second record label, with Andy Chatterley, called Saved. The outlet launched with ‘Chancer/Drop The Beat’ under his alias Skylark presents Buick Project. Across over 100 releases the label has signed music from artists such as James Talk, Mark Broom, Mat Playford, Joel Mull, Andrea Oliva, Uner, Steve Rachmad, Yousef, Spencer Parker, Oxia and more. The label celebrated 100 releases in 2014 with a world tour including dates in Tel Aviv, Glasgow, Hollywood and Washington D.C. Fanciulli now runs the label with his brother, Mark. In 2017, he collaborated with Matthew Dear under his Audion pseudonym to produce 'Resistance', released on his own label Saved. In December 2019 Fanciulli performed at the O2 London in support of Pete Tong's Ibiza Classics Show with the Heritage Orchestra, also remixing a track from the Ibiza Classics album. Nic's remix of Promised Land (a rework of the 1987 Joe Smooth classic featuring Disciples) was featured on the LP, released by Universal Music in 2018. Album & Live Show Fanciulli released his 16-track debut album My Heart in 2017. The long-player features appearances from Blur frontman Damon Albarn, veteran house vocalist Jamie Principle and CONSTANCE. In 2018, he released the ‘Star’ EP on Seth Troxler’s Play It Say It with his brother Mark Fanciulli. That year he also released an edit of Lee Cabrera’s ‘Shake it’, and a remix of Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa's No.1 chart hit ‘One Kiss’, which was released on his label Saved Records. In 2018, Fanciulli debuted a live show at Village Underground in Shoreditch, east London. My Heart Live saw Fanciulli perform all 16 tracks from his debut LP live with the aid of lighting effects by High Scream, a visuals team that also provides production for Fanciulli's Ushuaïa and Hi Ibiza shows. The Social Festival Fanciulli founded his boutique festival, The Social in 2014. It was launched as a way to bring international electronic music artists to his hometown, Maidstone. The festival started out as a one-day event, held at Mote Park, Kent, and has now extended its run to three days. The Social has branched out to South and Central America in 2017, with editions launched in Mexico, Colombia, Peru and Argentina. Discography Albums |

guanidinoacetate from arginine and glycine, with ornithine as a byproduct. The guanidinoacetate produced is then combined with S-Adenosyl-L-methionine, a reaction catalyzed by GAMT, to produce creatine and S-Adenosyl-L-homocysteine. The mechanism by which the AGAT catalyzes this committed step follows a ping-pong mechanism, and involves the transferring of an amidino group to the Cys407 residue on the protein from L-arginine, which leaves as L-ornithine. The His303 residue then extracts a proton from glycine, which then picks up the amidino group from Cys407 in exchange for a proton to become guanidinoacetate and renew the catalyst. Regulation of expression and activity The formation of guanidinoacetate is normally the rate-limiting step of creatine biosynthesis. Consequently, the AGAT reaction is the most likely control step in the pathway, a hypothesis that is supported by a great deal of experimental work. Most important in this respect is the feedback repression of AGAT by creatine, the end-product of the pathway. Cyclocreatine, N-acetimidoylsarcosine, and N-ethylguanidinoacetate display repressor activity like creatine as well. L-Arginine and guanidinoacetate have only "apparent" repressor activity. They exert no effect on AGAT expression by themselves but are readily converted to creatine, which then acts as the true repressor. It has been suggested that AGAT activity in tissues is regulated in a number of ways including induction by growth hormone and thyroxine, inhibition of the enzyme by ornithine, and repression of its synthesis by creatine. Sex hormones may regulate the activity of AGAT. Treatment of male rats with testosterone propionate increases AGAT | step of creatine biosynthesis.

Sex hormones may regulate the activity of AGAT. Treatment of male rats with testosterone propionate increases AGAT activity. In contrast, estrogen treatment decreases AGAT activity and induces weight loss. It is currently unclear whether the changes in the level of AGAT transcript results from altered mRNA stability or enhanced transcriptional rate. If estrogen-mediated alteration results from transcriptional regulation, the site of estrogen action is yet to be determined. GATM expression within the mouse placenta has been shown to be imprinted meaning only the maternal copy of GATM is expressed . Due to this it is thought that GATM acts as a growth suppressor within the placenta. Clinical significance Deficiency In 2000, The American Journal of Human Genetics reported two female siblings, aged 4 and 6 years, with mental retardation and severe creatine deficiency in the brain. Arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT) catalyzes the first step of creatine synthesis, resulting in the formation of guanidinoacetate, which is a substrate for creatine formation. In two female siblings with mental retardation who had brain creatine deficiency that was reversible by means of oral creatine supplementation and had low urinary guanidinoacetate concentrations, Arginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficiency was identified as a new genetic defect in creatine metabolism. It is one of three cerebral creatine deficiencies. Patients with brain creatine deficiency present nonspecific neurologic symptoms, including mental retardation, language disorders, epilepsy, autistic-like behavior, neurologic deterioration, and movement disorders. A deficiency in AGAT results in a creatine deficiency in the body. The treatment for this is creatine supplements since the body cannot make the creatine on its own. The positive results of creatine treatment (in AGAT deficiencies) and the observation that fetal and early postnatal development are normal in these patients |

Alexis Wineman was diagnosed with a form of autism at 11 .
She won the Miss Montana competition last year .
Wineman says the Miss America pageant was "my own personal Everest" | (CNN) -- I knew there had to be a reason my family and I went through tough days together. I didn't understand why then, but the past couple of weeks have put so much into perspective. The lonely days of pacing around my kitchen seemed like some of the longest days of my life. If anyone had told me then that I would be wearing a crown, an evening gown, heels and a swimsuit in front of a live audience with bright lights and television cameras hovering around, I'd have been the first one to dismiss it. I realize now that even my toughest days pale in comparison to the toughest days of others living with an autism spectrum disorder. I've been given this opportunity to use my voice for those who don't have one or have yet to find theirs. My path may not be one that another person would choose, but I challenged myself to enter the Miss America competition because it seemed like the peak to my own personal Everest. It also seemed kind of ironic: a girl who was told she was different and considered an outcast by many, in the nation's biggest beauty pageant. I knew I would face challenges and even some skepticism, but I never expected the outpouring of support that continues to come in. Winning the America's Choice title during the competition was the highest honor for me. The fact that so many people, to whom I am a total stranger, took the time to elect me as their contestant of choice is something I am still trying to comprehend. The glitz and the glamour may have faded from the wonderful experience of Miss America, but my commitment to raising awareness about autism and building bridges of acceptance grows stronger each day -- especially after I read e-mails, Facebook posts or tweets from the people who have supported my journey. I will be successful if just one person encounters a child who is overstimulated without staring, if one teenager invites an "outcast" to lunch or just smiles at him or her, or if one employer gives a job to someone who might not be able to look the interviewer in the eye. I also hope that families reading my story who feel isolated or have concerns and questions about their children know they are not alone -- there is a wonderfully loving community with people just waiting to be your friend and mentor. One thing I have learned in partnering with organizations like AbilityPath.org and Generation Rescue is that the special needs community is one of the most loyal and supportive groups anyone could join. I'm honored to be a part of this new circle of friends, and have no doubt that it was the people who found me relatable and believed in me that helped me become America's Choice. I don't know what tomorrow will bring, but I do know there is a lot for me to do to make sure people really get that "Normal is just a dryer setting." |

in the first instance, the freed RAM is returned to the available physical memory pool, while the compressed portion is kept in RAM. In the second instance, the compressed data is sent to auxiliary storage but the resulting I/O operation is smaller and therefore takes less time. In some implementations, including zswap, zram and Helix Software Company’s Hurricane, the entire process is implemented in software. In other systems, such as IBM's MXT, the compression process occurs in a dedicated processor that handles transfers between a local cache and RAM. Virtual memory compression is distinct from garbage collection (GC) systems, which remove unused memory blocks and in some cases consolidate used memory regions, reducing fragmentation and improving efficiency. Virtual memory compression is also distinct from context switching systems, such as Connectix's RAM Doubler (though it also did online compression) and Apple OS 7.1, in which inactive processes are suspended and then compressed as a whole. Benefits By reducing the I/O activity caused by paging requests, virtual memory compression can produce overall performance improvements. The degree of performance improvement depends on a variety of factors, including the availability of any compression co-processors, spare bandwidth on the CPU, speed of the I/O channel, speed of the physical memory, and the compressibility of the physical memory contents. On multi-core, multithreaded CPUs, some benchmarks show performance improvements of over 50%. In some situations, such as in embedded devices, auxiliary storage is limited or non-existent. In these cases, virtual memory compression can allow a virtual memory system to operate, where otherwise virtual memory would have to be disabled. This allows the system to run certain software which would otherwise be unable to operate in an environment with no virtual memory. Flash memory has certain endurance limitations on the maximum number of erase cycles it can undergo, which can be as low as 100 erase cycles. In systems where Flash Memory is used as the only auxiliary storage system, implementing virtual memory compression can reduce the total quantity of data being written to auxiliary storage, improving system reliability. Shortcomings Low compression ratios One of the primary issues is the degree to which the contents of physical memory can be compressed under real-world loads. Program code and much of the data held in physical memory is often not highly compressible, since efficient programming techniques and data architectures are designed to automatically eliminate redundancy in data sets. Various studies show typical data compression ratios ranging from 2:1 to 2.5:1 for program data, similar to typically achievable compression ratios with disk compression. Background I/O In order for virtual memory compression to provide measurable performance improvements, the throughput of the virtual memory system must be improved when compared to the uncompressed equivalent. Thus, the additional amount of processing introduced by the compression must not increase the overall latency. However, in I/O-bound systems or applications with highly compressible data sets, the gains can be substantial. Increased thrashing The physical memory used by a compression system reduces the amount of physical memory available to processes that a system runs, which may result in increased paging activity and reduced overall effectiveness of virtual memory compression. This relationship between the paging activity and available physical memory is roughly exponential, meaning that reducing the amount of physical memory available to system processes results in an exponential increase of paging activity. In circumstances where the amount of free physical memory is low and paging is fairly prevalent, any performance gains provided by the compression system (compared to paging directly to and from auxiliary storage) may be offset by an increased page fault rate that leads to thrashing and degraded system performance. In an opposite state, where enough physical memory is available and paging activity is low, compression may not impact performance enough to be noticeable. The middle ground between these two circumstanceslow RAM with high paging activity, and plenty of RAM with low paging activityis where virtual memory compression may be most useful. However, the more compressible the program data is, the more pronounced are the performance improvements as less physical memory is needed to hold the compressed data. For example, in order to | 4 KiB page, this virtual memory compression system determines whether the configured compression level threshold can be achieved for a particular page; if achievable, the rest of the page would be compressed and retained in a compressed cache, and otherwise the page would be sent to auxiliary storage through the normal paging system. The default setting for this threshold is an 8:1 compression ratio. Price/performance issues In hardware implementations the technology also relies on price differentials between the various components of the system, for example, the difference between the cost of RAM and the cost of a processor dedicated to compression. The relative price/performance differences of the various components tend to vary over time. For example, the addition of a compression co-processor may have minimal impact on the cost of a CPU. Prioritization In a typical virtual memory implementation, paging happens on a least recently used basis, potentially causing the compression algorithm to use up CPU cycles dealing with the lowest priority data. Furthermore, program code is usually read-only, and is therefore never paged-out. Instead code is simply discarded, and re-loaded from the program’s auxiliary storage file if needed. In this case the bar for compression is higher, since the I/O cycle it is attempting to eliminate is much shorter, particularly on flash memory devices. Compression using quantization Accelerator designers exploit quantization to reduce the bitwidth of values and reduce the cost of data movement. However, any value that does not fit in the reduced bitwidth results in an overflow (we refer to these values as outliers). Therefore accelerators use quantization for applications that are tolerant to overflows. In most applications the rate of outliers is low and values are often within a narrow range providing the opportunity to exploit quantization in generalpurpose processors. However, a software implementation of quantization in general-purpose processors has three problems. First, the programmer has to manually implement conversions and the additional instructions that quantize and dequantize values, imposing a programmer's effort and performance overhead. Second, to cover outliers, the bitwidth of the quantized values often become greater than or equal to the original values. Third, the programmer has to use standard bitwidth; otherwise, extracting non-standard bitwidth (i.e., 1–7, 9–15, and 17–31) for representing narrow integers exacerbates the overhead of software-based quantization. A hardware support in the memory hierarchy of general-purpose processors for quantization can solve these problems. Tha hardware support allows representing values by few and flexible numbers of bits and storing outliers in their original format in a separate space, preventing any overflow. It minimizes metadata and the overhead of locating quantized values using a software-hardware interaction that transfers quantization parameters and data layout to hardware. As a result, transparent hardware-based quantization has three advantages over cache compression techniques: (i) less metadata, (ii) higher compression ratio for floating-point values and cache blocks with multiple data types, and (iii) lower overhead for locating the compressed blocks. History Virtual memory compression has gone in and out of favor as a technology. The price and speed of RAM and external storage have plummeted due to Moore's Law and improved RAM interfaces such as DDR3, thus reducing the need for virtual memory compression, while multi-core processors, server farms, and mobile technology together with the advent of flash based systems make virtual memory compression more attractive. Origins Paul R. Wilson proposed compressed caching of virtual memory pages in 1990, in a paper circulated at the ACM OOPSLA/ECOOP '90 Workshop on Garbage Collection ("Some Issues and Strategies in Heap Management and Memory Hierarchies"), and appearing in ACM SIGPLAN Notices in January 1991. Helix Software Company pioneered virtual memory compression in 1992, filing a patent application for the process in October of that year. In 1994 and 1995, Helix refined the process using test-compression and secondary memory caches on video cards and other devices. However, Helix did not release a product incorporating virtual memory compression until July 1996 and the release of Hurricane 2.0, which used the Stac Electronics Lempel–Ziv–Stac compression algorithm and also used off-screen video RAM as a compression buffer to gain performance benefits. In 1995, RAM cost nearly $50 per megabyte, and Microsoft's Windows 95 listed a minimum requirement of 4 MB of RAM. Due to the high RAM requirement, several programs were released which claimed to use compression technology to gain “memory”. Most notorious was the SoftRAM program from Syncronys Softcorp. SoftRAM |

Rivière aux Canots; west side: Rivière aux Écorces, Thom stream, Paul stream, Lac de la Belle Rivière, Carpe lake, Métabetchouane River. The Morin River originates from a mountain stream (altitude: ) in a forest area in the Laurentides Wildlife Reserve. This source is located at: south of Morin Lake; west of Pika Lake; west of Hocquart Lake; north of Rivière aux Canots; east of the Rivière aux Écorces; south-west of route 169; south of the confluence of the Morin river and the Rivière aux Écorces; south-east of lac Saint-Jean. From its source, the Morin river flows over with a drop of entirely in the forest zone, according to the following segments: Upper course of the Morin River (segment of ) towards the north, curving towards the northwest at the end of the segment up to the outlet (coming from the northwest) of Lac des Panicauts; towards the north-east, forming a hook towards the east, up to the outlet (coming from the south) of Lac Cadieux; northwards to the outlet (coming from the south-east) of the lakes of Eminence, Gareau and the Ephemera; to the north, forming small coils up to the outlet (coming from the southeast) of Lac Morin; Intermediate course of the Morin River (segment of ) towards the northwest by forming small streamers at the end of the segment up to the outlet (coming from the west) of Choquette Lake; first towards the east, then towards the north by forming a large curve towards the east, then forming a loop towards the west at the end of the segment, up to a stream (coming from the east); towards the northwest by forming a hook towards the north, up to the highway 169 bridge; Lower course of the Morin River (segment of ) north-west, to the outlet (coming from the south-west) of the Lac des Trois Îles; towards the north-west, meandering through a plain comprising three areas of marshes to the east shore of Lac Gatien; towards the north-east, bypassing a peninsula from the west across the lake in Gatien (length: ; altitude: ) formed by the widening of the river, up to its mouth. Note: this lake is surrounded by marshes. It is fed by the Toupillons pond and Lor lake; north-east in the marsh zone at the start of the segment, forming a large S, then crossing the lake in Arche (length: ; altitude: ) formed by the widening of the river, up to its mouth; north-east, to its mouth. The Morin River flows onto the south bank of | north-east in the marsh zone at the start of the segment, forming a large S, then crossing the lake in Arche (length: ; altitude: ) formed by the widening of the river, up to its mouth; north-east, to its mouth. The Morin River flows onto the south bank of the Rivière aux Écorces. This confluence is located at: south-west of the confluence of the Sawine River and the Rivière aux Écorces; west of the Pikauba River; north-east of lac de la Belle Rivière; south of the confluence of the Pikauba and the Écorces rivers; south-west of the confluence of the Pikauba River and Kenogami Lake; southwest of the confluence of the Chicoutimi River and the Saguenay River in the Chicoutimi sector of the city of Saguenay (city). From the mouth of the Morin river, the current successively follows the course of the Rivière aux Écorces on towards the northeast, the course of the Pikauba River on generally towards the north, crosses Kenogami Lake on towards the northeast until barrage de Portage-des-Roches, then follows the course of the river Chicoutimi on to the east, then the northeast and the course of the Saguenay river on east to Tadoussac where it merges with the Saint Lawrence estuary. Toponymy In 1914, this watercourse appeared on a map under the name of "Rivière Vaseuse"; in 1928, the same name appears on another card accompanied by the variant "Rivière Morin". This last toponym is indicated later on maps of 1943 and 1954. The name of Morin evokes the life work of Joseph Morin (Baie-Saint-Paul, 1854 - Québec, 1915), merchant, farmer and secretary-treasurer of the Charlevoix municipality, before embarking on active politics. He was elected Liberal MP for the riding of Charlevoix from 1886 to 1897, then re-elected in 1900. Not having stood in the 1904 election, he was appointed governor of the prison in Quebec (city) two years later, a post he held from 1906 to 1915. More than a hundred geographic entities, essentially lakes and small rivers, evoke various people of this patronym in different regions of Quebec territory. The toponym "Rivière Morin" was formalized on December 5, 1968, at the Place Names Bank of the Commission de toponymie du Québec.

after fervent reaction and continuous meetings, Eleftherios Venizelos, setting aside his disagreements with Pangalos, decided that the best location would be the original one in Syntagma Square, reasoning that the Monument ought to be in the city centre, much like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. The construction committee had given all responsibility for the construction to Lazaridis. Initially, he had worked with sculptor Thomas Thomopoulos who had proposed as a central sculpture a representation of the Gigantomachy with an angel (representing Greece) lovingly receiving the dead soldier. Despite Lazaridis initially agreeing to this design, Thomopoulos's sculpture was never built due to lack of funds. In 1930, Lazaridis instead assigned Fokion Rok as sculptor with a unanimous decision of the construction committee. The committee then approved a new proposal for the sculpture, a gunner lying on the ground. This design was deemed appropriate owing to its calmness and simplicity. For the construction, a large-scale excavation and levelling of terrain took place. The Tomb was unveiled on 25 March 1932 by then Prime Minister Andreas Michalakopoulos, with the participation of many foreign delegations, followed by a parade of the monument guard. At the same time, a torch was brought from the monastery of Agia Lavra to light the eternal flame in the centre of the cenotaph. Style and inscriptions The Tomb is in the French urban and classical tradition, combined with the modern spirit of Art Deco and with symbolic references to Ancient Greece. The main issue was the integration of the Tomb with Syntagma Square and with the neoclassical Palace and the contribution to the redevelopment of the square. The Tomb is a large-scale Π-shaped retaining wall of limestone. The sculpture is at the centre of the wall. To the left and to the right there are two side staircases while in the centre there is a rectangular raised grave. The stairs of the monuments are purely decorative, as the steps are for observation during ceremonies. The sculpture represents the naked male figure of a dead warrior lying on the ground. He holds a circular shield in his left hand and wears an Ancient Greek-style helmet. The representation of the body gives the impression that the Unknown Soldier is ready to arise at any moment. To the left and right of the sculpture are phrases from the works of Thucydides. To the left, "" ("There's one empty bier made up for the unidentified [fallen] ones"); to the right, "" ("The whole earth is the sepulchre of famous men"). Both are quotes from History of the Peloponnesian War. Over the main sculpture in smaller writing, one reads | Old Royal Palace, suitable for this purpose". On 9 October 1926, the Army Ministry approved and granted by majority the study made by architect Emmanuel Lazaridis. The location of the monument at the Old Palace was suggested both by the architect himself and by Pangalos, who wish for the Army Ministry to be housed in the building. However in 1929, after fervent reaction and continuous meetings, Eleftherios Venizelos, setting aside his disagreements with Pangalos, decided that the best location would be the original one in Syntagma Square, reasoning that the Monument ought to be in the city centre, much like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
