Google’s not backing down in the fight for the smart home. On Thursday, the tech company said it’s releasing the first of several home assistant devices with screens slated for the summer.
The Smart Display, built by Lenovo and running Google’s Android Things software for Internet-connected devices, hits stores this weekend. Like Google’s Home, Home Mini and Home Max, the Smart Display lets you control it with your voice, and focuses on playing music. But it also has either an 8-inch or 10-inch screen, on which you can watch YouTube videos, have a video chat or get better answers to some questions.
It may seem puzzling for smart speaker makers to add yet another screen to the home, when the point of voice control is that you don’t have to touch a thing.
But adding a screen gives Google a better way to answer questions about things that require some visual assistance. Recipes, for example, benefit from short videos or written instructions rather than a robotic voice reeling off ingredients. A screen augments other information, too, such as restaurant suggestions that can show pictures of favourite dishes, or a peek at the five-day forecast when you ask for today’s weather.
“Our research shows that consumers want a richer experience,” Adam Wright, researcher at marketing intelligence company IDC said. Down the line, the implications for connecting these devices to Google’s growing entertainment plays and its interest in home security will make screens even more valuable, he said.
Asking questions is the second-most common use for a smart speaker, after listening to music, according to the research firm Activate. Google’s background in search gives it a strong foundation on which to own this part of the smart speaker skill set.
Amazon has released a few devices that use the screen in conjunction with voice as part of its aggressive smart home play, including the stand-alone Echo Show – a clear competitor for the new Smart Display. Amazon has also taken some of the layout for visual answers from Show and applied it to the television and also its tablets.
Google has roughly 30 percent of the smart speaker market to Amazon’s 66 percent, while other competitors such as Apple make up the remainder, according to eMarketer. | 2019-04-19T16:49:17 | https://nextgenstreetlight.com/2019/03/03/googles-plans-for-your-smart-home-more-screens/ |

For three turbulent centuries, the glimpse of a square sail and dragon-headed prow on the horizon struck terror into the hearts of medieval Europeans. Indeed, the Viking Age, from A.D. 800-1100, was the age of the sleek, speedy longship. Without this crucial advance in ship technology, the Vikings would never have become a dominant force in medieval warfare, politics, and trade.
With their invention of the longship, the Vikings spurred a literal sea change in medieval European affairs.
The drekar, or dragon-headed longships, were stealthy troop-carriers. They could cross the open oceans under sail and then switch to oars for lightning-fast hit-and-run attacks on undefended towns and monasteries. Far surpassing contemporary English or Frankish vessels in lightness and efficiency, longships carried Viking raiders from northern England to north Africa.
Viking expertise in naval craftsmanship soon led to the evolution of other types of ship. Among these were the knarr, or ocean-going cargo vessel, which facilitated far-flung trade networks and the colonization of Iceland, Greenland, and America. The knarr drew on similar design principles as the longship but was higher and wider in relation to its length and had only limited numbers of oars to assist with maneuvers in narrow channels. Cargo decks were installed fore and aft.
The secret of the Viking ship lay in its unique construction. Using a broad ax rather than a saw, expert woodworkers would first split oak tree trunks into long, thin planks. They then fastened the boards with iron nails to a single sturdy keel and then to each other, one plank overlapping the next. The Vikings gave shape to the hull using this "clinker" technique rather than the more conventional method of first building an inner skeleton for the hull.
Next, the boatbuilders affixed evenly spaced floor timbers to the keel and not to the hull; this insured resilience and flexibility. They then added crossbeams to provide a deck and rowing benches, and secured a massive beam along the keel to support the mast.
Discovered in Norway in 1906, the Oseberg ship, the best preserved Viking ship ever found, reveals its Norse shipbuilders' graceful construction style.
The longships' light, economic construction was a major factor behind their success. Modern replicas have achieved speeds of up to 14 knots. In marked contrast to modern sailboats, the ships' lack of a big, vertical keel meant that they were highly maneuverable and could easily penetrate shallow surf and river estuaries. Seafarers steered using a single side rudder on the right, the 'starboard' or "steering board" side. (The term 'starboard' is thought to have originated in the Viking era.) They could also reef the square sails in strong winds and adjust them to permit rapid tacking.
Famous discoveries of Viking ships at Gokstad and Oseberg, Norway, in 1880 and 1906, respectively, established the classic image of the dragon-headed warship. Longships from both sites were preserved almost intact, with lavish carved decoration, in the waterlogged clay of royal burial mounds. Built around A.D. 890, three quarters of a century after the Oseberg ship, the Gokstad vessel shows great improvements in design, particularly in the sturdiness of the mast supports. Not surprisingly, this era, during which the Norse perfected longship design, coincides with the eruption of seaborne Viking raids on the monasteries and towns of Europe.
Astoundingly, a veritable flotilla of sunken Viking vessels turned up on the grounds of the very museum being built to house other Viking boats.
The modern phase of Viking ship investigation began with the recovery of five vessels at Skuldelev in Roskilde fjord, Denmark, between 1957 and 1962. The excavation involved building a coffer dam around the ships, which Norsemen deliberately sunk in a desperate bid to barricade the fjord against invaders.
The major revelation at Skuldelev was the variety of the vessels, which ranged from a stocky cargo ship with a capacity of 24 tons to two sleek longships. The larger of the longships, measuring 95 feet in length, had made at least one successful crossing of the North Sea, for tree-ring analysis of its oak timbers revealed that they had been cut down around A.D. 1060-70 near Dublin, suggesting the presence of a major shipyard at this key Viking stronghold in Ireland.
Even more remarkable discoveries were to follow in 1996, when contractors began expanding Roskilde's waterfront museum, originally built to house the finds from Skuldelev. As astonishing as it sounds, no fewer than nine wrecked medieval ships eventually turned up in different spots around the building site, including one under the museum's car park.
The most striking discovery was the biggest longship yet found, 119 feet long, with room for at least 72 oars and a crew of 100. With its draft of only about three feet and a huge, 2,175-square-foot sail, the ship must have been swift and formidable. The excavators speculate that this ship, like the others in Roskilde harbor, may have gone down in a severe storm, then become hidden in silt. Tree-ring analysis of the high-quality oak used for its timbers suggests a construction date of around A.D. 1025.
Countless sailing experiments with replica ships continue to confirm the excellence of Viking ship design. Much less is known about Viking navigation methods on the high seas, although one of the Icelandic sagas—narratives of Norse history and legends written in Iceland in the 12th and 13th centuries—includes sailing directions from Norway to Greenland that rely on distant landmarks and the presence of birds and whales to signal the position of land. The Vikings had no compass but undoubtedly steered by the sun and stars.
Did they have other aids? The sagas contain intriguing references to a solarsteinn or 'sunstone' used for navigation. Scholars believe it possible this stone was feldspar, a mineral found in Iceland that polarizes light. Theoretically, a polarizing stone might have helped indicate the direction of the sun when clouds obscured the view. Its practicality is doubtful, however, since it would require some blue sky to work and would thus have proved useless in total overcast.
Did the Vikings, as the sagas suggest, really use a sun compass for navigation? If so, what form did it take?
The evidence for a so-called "suncompass" is equally shaky. Some have viewed a fragment of a small wooden disk found in a Greenland monastery as a kind of bearing dial for finding north and south. The disk has a hole in its center, and the theory suggests that it originally fitted over a central pin or gnomon to cast a shadow. Markings around the edge of the disk could then have helped the navigator determine north-south. While similar modern devices do work successfully (as seen in the NOVA program "The Vikings"), many have questioned if the Greenland disc was actually used in this way. It is less than three inches across and the markings around the perimeter are so crudely carved as to make the interpretation doubtful.
When at length they were all gathered, they went on board the towered ships...On one side lions molded in gold were to be seen on the ships, on the other birds on the tops of the masts indicated by their movements the winds as they blew, or dragons of various kinds poured fire from their nostrils...But why should I now dwell upon the sides of the ships, which were not only painted with ornate colors but were covered with gold and silver figures?...The blue water, smitten by many oars, might be seen foaming far and wide, and the sunlight, cast back in the gleam of metal, spread a double radiance in the air.

Repl.it - Can you make the notifications page work?
There is a page Notifications, that does nothing. I think that it could have good potential if it was actually used. I think that you should get notifications when someone up votes your post, comments on your post, or pings you. Also, you could make it so that it told you when you moved a position on the leaderboard. It could also tell you whenever a new competition started, or when one of your posts got pinned. If anybody else has some ideas they want the page to say, comment below please! Thank you!
@timmy_i_chen That would be good! Thank you! | 2019-04-22T12:13:26 | https://repl.it/talk/ask/Can-you-make-the-notifications-page-work/8502 |

Alfredo Gioventù starts to work with stone pottery in the Seventies, used at first as support for majolica elements and then to mount on it fragments of objects, both ancient and modern, as testimonies of some-thing which does not exist anymore, and therefore capable of evoking melancholy atmospheres.The keepsake object, the Goccia nel mare , of 1982, signs a new stage in his artistic reflection,now tending to the further elaboration of the relationship between memory and natural data.
The experimentation of the use of stone pottery leads Alfredo Gioventù, as from the Nineties and to this day, to employ this material to perfectly imitate the grey stones with white streaks of the Ligurian shores.By associating grey ceramic with woods and terracotta smoothed by the sea,the sculptor has created a line of objects with great emotional drive capable, in their formal essentiality and their direct reference to the experiences of the local reality, to fully represent the relationship with nature as the place of memory. And indeed this strong link with the Ligurian tradition is expressed by one of the most important researches on the expressive possibilities carried out at the Ceramic Factory Alfredo Gioventù of Sestri Levante: the research on the technique of the risseu, the flooring realised with sea stones artistically placed side by side to create a motif. It is important for the purposes of restorations to hand down the secrets of the creation of these particular kind of mosaic, typical of Liguria, and in fact those who are trained in the Factory are expert in this art, but for Alfredo Gioventù this is also a technique to be reinvented in new works, such as the risseu he has realised in front of an inn of Sestri Levante.

On December 2, 2011 the Department of Transportation (“DOT”) published its new regulations prohibiting the use of hand-held mobile (cell) phones by drivers of interstate commercial motor vehicles, which include busses and trucks on interstate routes (“CMV drivers”). The new regulations take affect 30 days after publication, i.e. on January 1, 2012.
More specifically, the final rule prohibits CMV drivers from holding, dialing or reaching for a hand-held cell phone. CMV drivers are allowed, however, to use a hands-free device so long as that device does not require the driver to take his/her eyes off the road. Further, because some hands-free devices require the user to touch the phone, the rule allows CMV drivers to initiate, answer or end a call by touching a single button on either the mobile device or the headset. It is important to note that although this ban extends to push-to-talk functions on hand-held cell phones; it does not ban the use of CB radios because, oddly enough, the DOT does not consider CB radios to be cellular technology.
Further, the rule bans a CMV driver from reaching for any cellular device in an “unacceptable and unsafe manner” and requires the driver to be in “close proximity” to any compliant device that he/she intends to use.
Individual states will suspend a driver’s commercial driver’s license after two or more serious traffic violations, which include violations regarding hand-held cell phones.
Employer Liability. The rule’s language makes an employer liable for a driver’s actions while on the job or carrying out company business regardless of whether the employer allowed the driver to use a hand-held cell phone.
Approximately four million commercial drivers will be affected by this final rule. Therefore, employers of DOT covered drivers should review their policies to ensure they are consistent with the new regulations. For questions please contact Jim Sherman or any of our experienced attorneys in our five offices in MN; WI; IL; or IA.

As my colleagues awaited the Auburn presser, I headed back to my post to cover this game, passing a somber Bruce Pearl, Jared Harper, and Bryce Brown on the way.
The ending of the last game left a weird taste in my mouth, but when the lights went down and the opening ceremonies began, my feeling of excitement returned. This game should be epic.
Tech and Sparty are probably the two most representative fanbases here in Minny. The Raider faithful traveled extremely well and it was impressive how loud they made US Bank Stadium – like near home game atmosphere. Of course, with these two squads it’s much easier to pick out the respective fans (green and red versus orange/blue, orange/blue), but the advantage was clear in the stands from the get go.
One of the key things I was looking for in this one was which team could crack the other’s lock-down defensive shell. In the Final Four preview, I raved about how good Michigan State was at taking what the defense gives them and adapting their style of play. Sparty decidedly did not accomplish this feat tonight. Tom Izzo admitted during post game that his primary goal was to try and punch it inside, something he’s done all season, but Texas Tech was unrelenting in the post. To make matters worse, Nick Ward picked up his second foul mid-way through the first half, leaving Sparty without its main post threat. Cassius Winston and Matt McQuaid tried to keep the ship afloat, but ultimately couldn’t carry the load.
The first half was an absolute rock fight. Tech and Sparty combined to shoot 15/49 (30.5%) and managed a measly 44 points in 20 minutes. Tariq Owens started Tech off on the right foot by cashing a three on the first possession of the game, just his 8th triple of the season. Sparty’s ball movement looked crisp enough early on, the rock becoming a pinball catapulting off the MSU flippers, but Tech’s help defense countered every swing and motion of the attack. On the other end, Tech appeared to be settling for isolation possessions, as guys like Jarrett Culver were baited into taking tough shots. Culver struggled all game long to find his stroke, starting 1/9 from the field and scoring just one point in the first half. Chris Beard blamed himself for Culver’s ineffectiveness, saying he should have coached his offense better. Beard regretted that Culver wasn’t getting the ball back for a second touch after his initial give-up, and this trend forced the sophomore stud into trying to attack off the first touch, something Beard thought much too difficult against the Sparty defense.
MSU won the first eight minutes behind the play of Matt McQuaid, a senior wing who’s known for his all-out style of play. McQuaid had nine of Sparty’s 14 points heading into the under-12:00 timeout and Michigan State enjoyed a three-point lead. Izzo clearly instilled a specific gameplan on his players to counter the talented Culver. Every time he touched the ball, the Spartans collapsed on him and forced him out of a rhythm. Despite a clutch Matt Mooney three to cut a five-point deficit to three, Tech appeared to be in trouble with Norense Odiase picking up his second foul halfway through the first half. But then things changed. Ward went out with his second foul and the Tech role players began their ascent to stardom. Brandone Francis nailed a three to put the Raiders up one heading into the under-8:00 and finished the game with nine crucial points off the pine to go along with Kyler Edwards’ six.
The rest of the first half was marked by offensive futility. Sparty finally broke through on the offensive glass, but it resulted in just three points in the final eight minutes. Two different Spartans missed the front-end of a one-and-one and MSU stumbled into the 2:30 stoppage of play after missing their last 15 attempts. TTU, too, was busy building houses of their own, scoring just four points in the final 8:00. Once the dust from the brick laying settled, Texas Tech went into the locker room up two, fueled by the play of Owens, a human eraser inside the paint that made getting buckets near the rim an impossibility. Izzo said his team was fortunate to be down just two at half after his offense stagnated and his inside execution failed.
Michigan State threw the first punch of the second half, corralling an offensive carom and sticking the ball back through the hoop. Maybe it was time for the Spartans to start dominating the glass, an area of concern for the Raiders heading into the game. Sophomore PG Davide Morretti, nearly invisible in the first half, answered Sparty’s stick-back with a three off an unselfish look from Culver. Beard’s Lottery Pick wing still struggled to find his shot, even missing a couple open looks in the heart of the MSU defense. Morretti followed up his three with a tough drive to the hoop before McQuaid knocked down a triple of his own. Tech continued hitting tough shots and playing absolutely stellar defense, opening up a 32-28 lead heading into the under-16:00 timeout.
Once play started again, Nick Ward finally announced his presence at the game. After being shut-out in the first, Ward drew a foul and then converted a tough layup against Odiase in the post. Sparty started gaining a little momentum and then apparent disaster struck for Texas Tech. With 14:43 to play in the game, Tariq Owens went down after turning his ankle 90 degrees. It was a tough play to watch and something you never want to see happen to such a key player on this stage. At that moment, I felt fairly confident Sparty was going to win this game. Boy was I wrong.
Sparty was down but they didn’t panic, maintaining a steady diet of post-feeds. Izzo and his Spartans had been in this situation countless times before and won, so why should this moment be any different? MATT MOONEY, THAT’S WHY! The former Air Force Falcon and South Dakota Coyote played like a man possessed, pouring in yet another trey bomb and taking his point tally to 20. Cassius Winston coolly answered Mooney’s triple, but Culver decided it was about time he added a bucket of his own. Tech punched hard but Sparty rolled with the blows and kept the game competitive, even gaining on the Raiders since the last media timeout. In the midst of the boxing match, Owens made his triumphant (and unfathomable) return to the court, running out from the locker room to a cheering crowd of Raider faithful. Whatever they gave to Owens in that locker room to make him able to jog out and reenter the game, I’ll take two.
When the final eight minutes started there was a feeling in the air that Sparty catalyst Winston wasn’t done yet. The Big Ten Player of the Year started putting his team on his back, as he’d done countless times this season, and his Spartans slowly started to creep closer to the TTU total. Culver remained cold and Tech started to force tough threes, ultimately going three minutes without a score. As my colleague Jim so eloquently put it with 4:32 remaining, “Tech’s buttholes are tightening.” Despite yet another Sparty one-and-one front-end miss, the Tech lead was just five with less than 4:00 to play.
… except it wasn’t, guys; we know the end to this story. Culver stepped up like the star player he is and buried a clutch two; Winston committed a bonehead offensive foul trying to free his teammate for a shot at the top of the key; and Odiase just TOOK the rock from Xavier Tillman out on the perimeter, extinguishing the Spartan run. Culver confidently stabbed the dagger in the Spartan heart with a three-pointer and the TTU student section erupted, throwing beer in the air and ruining their freshly purchased Final Four gear. The game was over and Texas Tech had won. Tech fans cheered, Sparty fans cried, and the NCAA fainted at the thought of a Virginia / Texas Tech National Championship.
This game can be summed up in a few short sentences: Sparty was cold. Texas Tech was lock-down defensively. Matt Mooney went Super Saiyan. MSU’s frontcourt was a non-factor.
Beard was proud that his team went toe-to-toe with one of the best programs in the country.
It was apparent the amount of respect Izzo held for Beard, a coach he knew looked up to him. He complimented the way Beard built this Tech program.
The toughest part of the presser was seeing the demeanor of Matt McQuaid and Cassisus Winston, both great players forced to answer questions on stage after losing the biggest games of their lives. Winston was poised and answered tough questions with honesty and humility. McQuaid’s responses were absolutely heart wrenching – I literally had to look away because I was about to cry. The senior said there was no excuse for the way he played down the stretch - he was tired but there was no excuse for being tired in the Final Four. McQuaid said Izzo hugged him at the end of the game and said he was sorry. He described how much he was going to miss playing for Michigan State, how much he was going to miss going to talk to Coach Izzo after practice or after class, how much he loved his coach and this program. Izzo holds McQuaid in the highest regard saying, “Some kids like it, some kids love it, some kids live it.” He said McQuaid is one of the all-time great guys and hardest workers he’s ever coached. | 2019-04-25T10:35:54 | https://www.three-man-weave.com/3mw/2019-final-four-recap-michigan-state-v-texas-tech |
While the deaf and hard of hearing communities and the special education world in general have debated the meaning and reach of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) for more than 30 years, it is beyond contention that when provided appropriate language learning and academic opportunities deaf and hard of hearing children can and do attain high levels of achievement. The population of deaf and hard of hearing children is diverse, and their needs for access to language and communication are diverse as well. These include access to American Sign Language and English and communication through sign language, spoken language, sign and voice, visual technology, auditory technology, and other supports and services. When access is not provided, children fall behind in linguistic and cognitive growth and ultimately educational achievement. Support for each child's language and communication development is the key to the child's success. | 2019-04-20T18:32:17 | http://ceasd.org/child-first/brochure |

Many patients have been asking my professional advice on which mattress they should buy. There is not a definite answer for every patient. Every single one is going to need a different one in order to get a good night sleep for years to come. Below are some tips and tricks that you can use when buying a new mattress.
A mattress should provide uniform support from head to toe. If there are gaps between your body and your mattress (such as at the waist), you’re not getting the necessary support that your body requires. | 2019-04-20T08:49:11 | http://www.burtchiropractic.com/tag/mattress/page/2/ |

If you've got a penchant for Stormtroopers, then boy-oh-boy, do we have the sweater for you.
Sure, we realize that Stormtrooper fans probably would prefer to march around in Imperial armor all day, but that's kind of impractical, especially around the holiday season. People want to have conversations, look you in the eye, shake your hand, maybe even give you a hug. Armor definitely won't do in this situation. No, this is sweater-wearing season.
Which is why we have combined the best of both worlds. This Star Wars Stormtrooper Ugly Sweater Cardigan is a perfect look for all you Stormtrooper fans. From Mighty Fine, it features Stormtrooper helmets incorporated into it's decorative knit design, but it is a 100 percent cotton button-up cardigan. Perfect for ugly sweater parties or just celebrating the holidays (because why wouldn't you celebrate with some Star Wars?), this sweater will proudly display your fantastic taste in cinema. Wear it for parties, wear it all season! Wear it Christmas Eve... especially if you're hoping to wake up to a bunch of Star Wars action figures under the tree on Christmas morning. Long live the Empire!
Great sweater! I got tons of compliments. Everyone wanted to know where I got it. Good quality and a nice fit.
The sweater pills instantly upon washing. It is simple to deburr, and maintains soft quality. It keeps you warm without making you overheat. | 2019-04-23T00:30:15 | https://www.fun.com/star-wars-stormtrooper-ugly-sweater-cardigan-mens.html |
Restaurant critic Amy Pataki and her family decided to rent chickens this summer. This is the sixth in an occasional series on backyard livestock.
I live with six females: three human, three feathered.
Each has her own qualities, habits and looks.
Parents know this to be true of children — as do chicken experts.
“Each chicken has a unique personality,” says Gail Damerow in animal husbandry bible Storey’s Guide to Raising Chickens.
So, I felt up to the challenge when my editors asked me to profile our chickens’ personalities.
We’ll start with Julep, the black-and-white beauty my daughters fought over before they ever met her.
Julep is our gentlest chicken. She’s easy to pick up, even by visitors.
Julep is also the least comfortable being on her own. When the rest of the flock wanders away from her in the backyard, she run-flies after them in a flapping panic.
“She needs to be with the others. She gets distressed if she’s away from them,” notes Rebecca.
You can’t confuse the chickens for each other.
Blair, for example, is a Red Star. This hybrid of a red male and white female results in coppery plumage laced with ivory. She has inquisitive eyes and a melodious voice.
“I used to think Blair was a very docile, calm chicken,” says Ella, her nominal owner.
Blair is the explorer, undaunted by stairs or patio furniture. She strikes out in her own to peck and bathe in the dust.
Zazu is the last bird in the flock. She is a Black Star, a mix of a red male and a barred Plymouth Rock female. Her orange-and-black plumage looks like glowing embers.
Zazu was skittish when she arrived — and as fast as a running back. After one 15-minute chase to get her back in the coop, Janos and I had to admit our four combined university degrees didn’t prepare us for farm life.
Now that she’s settled in, Zazu is proving quite agreeable. She slays with her long eyelashes, holding a pose for Star photographer Richard Lautens like a model. She’s also the most consistent layer, producing a daily egg since her arrival.
Each daughter claims her chicken is at the top of the pecking order. They’ve displaced their sibling rivalry onto the hen house.
They bicker about which chicken has the reddest comb or the nicest tone of voice. I’ve heard them claim their chicken lays the most eggs or smells better than the others (not a fact).
We didn’t think having chickens would smooth out the sisters’ relationships but it has.
“Before there’d be rivalry with test marks. Now it’s about whose chicken did what. It’s better than competing over which human is better,” says Inara, Zazu’s champion. | 2019-04-19T14:41:49 | https://www.thestar.com/life/food_wine/review/2018/06/15/meet-the-family-a-profile-on-our-chickens.html |
60 kids are a step away from their dream. Help them build it !
Ratna Nidhi Charitable trust is seeking a grant to expand our Educational Scholarship Program (ESP) for Children affected by terror. This is with the objective of providing financial support to these children to continue their formal education. We intend to continue this project with the aim of helping these children with the further education, and furthermore help them to be in a position to find a suitable employability in future.
Our ESP is based on the success of our past similar projects, where we supported children belonging to the family affected during the terror attacks took place on 24th of August, 2003 at Zaveri Bazaar & Gateway of India and the one that took place on 7th July, 2006 at various sub urban railway stations of Mumbai.
On 26th November 2008 Mumbai faced terror attacks which drew worldwide global condemnation, 188 children were identified for the Educational Scholarship Program in the first round. Of these, 35 children were selected for the additional assistance of 10,000 (INR) per year for their higher education. In all 252 terror affected children were helped during the course of 10 years.
While we were still in the thick of the Terror Project, another calamity occurred in the form of triple bomb blasts at Zaveri Bazar, Opera House and Dadar on 7th July 2011. This time RNCT covered more 48 children under their ESP.
Posts reviewing the cases through constant supervision the ESP team recommended to re‐ launch the program for its Phase II. In this phase we have identified 60 cases of children who are at a crucial stage of learning and need hand holding in terms to their education.
Your help will go a long way in creating a new life for these children. #IamNewIndia. | 2019-04-20T03:44:37 | https://milaap.org/fundraisers/buildingdreams |
Après avoir analysé les fondements de l’utilitarisme classique, dans cette sixième leçon nous vous invitons à une réflexion sur l’héritage de Bentham, du XIXe siècle jusqu’à nos jours. Ce sera l’occasion de découvrir de quelle manière John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) a réorienté l’utilitarisme benthamien, mais aussi d’aborder ensemble quelques cas pratiques d’application de l’éthique utilitariste dans le monde contemporain.En plus des séquences vidéo à regarder, nous vous proposons comme lecture de référence le quatrième chapitre de l’ouvrage "L’Utilitarisme" de John Stuart Mill. Nous vous invitons également à consulter la bibliographie du cours et à compléter le test d'évaluation QCM. Les forums de discussion restent à votre disposition pour toute question ou commentaire : n’hésitez pas à participer. -------- After analysing the foundations of classical utilitarianism, this sixth lesson invites you to reflect on the legacy of Bentham, from the nineteenth Century to the present. This lesson is an opportunity to discover how John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) reoriented Bentham’s utilitarianism, but also to jointly address some practical applications of utilitarianism in our contemporary world. In addition to watching the video clips, we suggest you read the fourth chapter of the book "Utilitarianism" by John Stuart Mill. We also invite you to consult the bibliography for this lesson and to complete the multiple choice assessment test. Discussion forums are available for any question or comment. Feel free to participate.

Rubis Colibri Cuticle Scissors have a sharp, curved blade for easy trimming. Made from the finest Swedish stainless steel, they won't rust when disinfecting.

In addition to the ranges of Nylon and Aluminium plugs and Inflatable Stoppers, the HFT Pipestoppers® Division of Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®, also manufactures a range of Steel plugs from 1.5" to 72" in diameter.
These plugs are typically suitable for more arduous duties such as long immersion in water and use at higher temperatures or for contact with acidic or alkaline environments for which the Nylon and Aluminium plugs might be unsuitable.
The plugs are merely inserted into the pipe and the wing nut tightened to force the top and bottom plates together, thereby expanding the rubber ring to seal tightly in the pipe. The patented Friction Free washer enables easy tightening of the wing nuts.
The Steel Plugs are manufactured with 1/2", 1" & 2" outlets.
2" outlet for 20" and greater diameters.
The standard seals are made from natural rubber although special rubber seals are available for applications which may need a greater chemical resistance and/or higher temperature tolerances.
All plugs conform to British Standards BS 8005 for low pressure testing and sealing of pipes.
In addition to the ranges of Nylon and Aluminium plugs and Inflatable Stoppers, the HFT Pipestoppers® Division of Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®, also manufactures a range of Double Steel plugs for pressure testing and stopping all pipe work from 50mm (2") upwards.
A double seal can be even more effective for more arduous duties such as long immersion in water and use at higher temperatures or for contact with acidic or alkaline environments for which the Nylon and Aluminium plugs might be unsuitable. The test pressure capability of the single stoppers is limited and the double versions increase that capability, while offering a greater stability in the pipe. As single plugs approach their pressure limits, they can tend to tip over like a butterfly valve. The double plugs will prevent the tipping and guarantee the seal.
The Double Steel Plugs are manufactured with 1/2", 1" & 2" outlets.
As with the other steel, nylon and aluminium plugs the natural rubber seals can be exchanged for Silicon, Viton, Nitrile or other chemically and temperature resistant rubbers.
Double length plugs give greater stability in pipes and holes. The double length prevents them from tipping or "butterflying" and losing their seals.
The double length seal give greater protection against the leakage of hazardous fluids or gasses.
Some extra resistance against higher pressures is given, however like all plugs, they should be braced for safety purposes when gas pressure testing is employed. | 2019-04-24T10:13:05 | https://pipestoppers.net/Steel.html |

Hi, I’m Sandy! Thank you for reading Adventure Sisters. This blog came about when my sister and I realized how much we enjoyed sharing our adventures. We never let an opportunity for adventure pass us by whether local or afar. This blog motivates us to get out of the house rain or shine and have more adventures. I live in the Pacific Northwest with my husband and two daughters. I have a passion for travel, reading, and the great outdoors. I hope you enjoy our blog and it inspires you to get out and have some new adventures of your own. Feel free to contact me at [email protected].

Spiritual initiation is a milestone of development in the soul’s long evolutionary journey. Each one indicates that the soul has taken increased control over an aspect of the personality (ego). This module focuses on the incremental evolution of consciousness, and how each initiation indicates that the soul has taken dominion over a particular aspect of the personality. William and Michelle will closely consider these initiatory steps (leading to enlightenment) with a particular focus on the changing nature of consciousness that accompanies each. | 2019-04-18T19:14:40 | https://soulbridging.com/modules/initiation/ |
Staying in a New England inn during foliage season is the quintessential fall vacation. If you're conjuring up images of historic mansions, elegant antiques, thick oriental rugs, and cozy fireplaces for those crisp fall nights -- well, you're right on the money. These 10 inns all have charm to spare.
The cozy 10-room Ale House Inn -- more suited to adults than families -- is housed in a historic 130-year-old former brewery warehouse a block from downtown Portsmouth. Room decor is minimalist, hip, and chic, but there isn't much to this boutique hotel other than a small lobby and common area with free snacks. There is no on-site restaurant or bar, but the Market Square District location means shops and dining are nearby. The hotel gives free tickets to the Seacoast Rep Theater, which is located on the ground floor, and a free local beer upon arrival. Each room is equipped with a pre-loaded iPad that includes a ton of information about Portsmouth.
A cozy, three-story Victorian property that was once a privately owned mansion, the Kennebunkport Inn offers a relaxing getaway in a classic New England setting. It is a solid pick for both business and leisure travelers, particularly given its location right in Dock Square and within walking distance of restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and shops. Built in the 1890s and renovated in 2003, the inn is beautifully decorated with an elegant blend of contemporary furnishings and antiques featuring a nautical color scheme of blue, white, and red. The property has retained many of its turn-of-the-century architectural elements, which means some rooms are smaller and may have different amenities than others (e.g., fireplaces). Overall, the charming vibe, elegant decor, and thoughtful extras such as the delicious free breakfast make this inn a real gem.
With its warm, urban-chic vibe, Amee Farm isn't a typical B&B. Rooms look straight out of an interior design magazine, with a near-perfect combination of rustic, warm, quaint, and stylish touches. Wide-planked hardwood floors, comfortable beds with white, soft linens, and interesting antiques are found in all the rooms. Bathrooms have granite showers with rain showerheads and updated fixtures (though not all rooms have private bathrooms). There are no TVs in rooms -- only in the common area -- but Wi-Fi is free and available throughout. One perk here is an inviting wrap-around porch with Adirondack chairs for admiring the scenery.
This renowned inn is one of the premier luxury options in Maine, and offers a true boutique experience in charming Kennebunk. It is housed in a historic building, and so its 26 rooms vary greatly in size. However, they all feature flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, free Wi-Fi, and classic, elegant decor. The much-acclaimed restaurant serves outstanding (and pricey) seasonal cuisine in an 1820s restored barn, and the spa is arguably one of the best in the region. The waterfront cottages are quite a trek from the main building, so make sure you book a guestroom instead if you want to be closer to the property's great amenities.
The Winvian is a romantic, upscale property set on 113 acres of countryside outside tiny Morris. Its 19 individually decorated cottages all have a feel of understated, rustic elegance with the convenience of modern amenities, including Bose surround systems, flat-screen TVs, and Nespresso coffeemakers. All units have working fireplaces, large bathrooms with separate walk-in showers and jetted tubs, and unique, mind-blowing design features; one cottage has a helicopter shell that doubles as a living room. The outstanding spa and the wonderful restaurant serving a tasty farm-to-table menu are just some of the highlights.
Vanderbilt Grace is a 100-year-old mansion built by the Vanderbilt family that has been converted into a modern, elegant hotel. Rooms are well-appointed, the dining is first-class, and the location is prime -- close to Newport, but without the noise. A spa, a substantial fitness center, and two swimming pools round out the list of features. Plus, guests get plenty of free champagne -- when they check in, and at breakfast every morning.
The Chatham Gables Inn in Cape Cod provides an elegant and comfortable escape. Located in a quiet, residential neighborhood, this historic inn offers just seven charming rooms with incredible attention to detail. Beyond the sophisticated decor, the outstanding feature here is a full breakfast served each morning in the sunny garden room. Modern touches, including free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs add convenience, while some rooms have extra special amenities including fireplaces, private entrances, and even one room with a private porch and rocking chairs.
The Round Barn Farm has a serene location with more than 245 acres of rolling green hills in every direction. It has a decidedly romantic ambiance, with rooms that have whirlpool tubs and/or working fireplaces. Having a small indoor pool and fitness center (though technically it's only a few cardio machines) is a true B&B rarity in these parts, but the real draws here are the peaceful ambiance, romantic and cozy experience, incredible views, and fresh air.
This historic sea captain's home is now a charming, 15-room inn full of indulgent freebies and modern touches. It's in a quiet, residential area of Kennebunkport, within walking distance of the shops and restaurants downtown. Cozy rooms vary in size, decor, and amenities -- some have fireplaces, soaking tubs, and private entrances -- while all include modern perks such as free Wi-Fi, iPod docks, and flat-screen TVs. Free communal breakfasts here are a gourmet, sit-down affair, and more yummy snacks are available throughout the day, including at afternoon tea. A no kids under 10 policy helps the inn maintains an intimate and peaceful atmosphere. | 2019-04-23T04:35:37 | https://www.huffpost.com/entry/the-10-coziest-new-englan_n_5922204 |

Studies on a Foot-rot of Cereals Caused by Helminthosporium sativum P., K., & B.
This disease appears to be relatively new to science although it is probable that it has existed, without recognition, for a considerable length of time. At first, attention was drawn to only the leaf spotting phase of the disease, when Pammel (19) in 1909 first referred to it. In 1910, Pammel and his co-workers (20) described the causal fungus, naming it Helminthosporium sativum. Bolley (5), however, was the first to point out that fungi such as this were present in soil, and tended to accumulate in wheat-sick soils following a period of intensive cropping. This observation was confirmed by Beckwith (4). Stakman (23) found that li. sativum attacked not only the leaves but also the stems and roots of barley and rye, causing a seedling blight and a root rot. She found the fungus would attack the leaves of certain grasses as well. The studies of Christensen (6) showed that li. sativum had a much wider host range than that formerly recognized and there were marked differences in varietal susceptibility to attack. Henry (13) found that li. sativum commonly occurred in discolored seed of wheat. | 2019-04-19T12:48:12 | https://harvest.usask.ca/handle/10388/7001 |

These are the names of the Valar as they were known to the Eldar in Valinor. In Middle-earth, they were known by other names of Sindarin origin; for example 'Elbereth' for Varda, or 'Araw' for Oromë. Their names among Men are said to be legion.
The Valar in the Beginning of Arda: The Valar were in origin the greatest of the Ainur who witnessed the Vision of Ilúvatar and so descended into Eä to fulfil the vision and create Arda. It seems that, in the first beginnings of the World, the four mightiest spirits came down into it; Manwë, Ulmo and Aulë to prepare it for the coming of the Children of Ilúvatar, and Melkor to claim it for his own domain.
There was conflict between Manwë and Melkor, and Manwë called many other spirits into the World to aid him in his struggle. Among these were the other Valar, and those of lesser order known as Maiar. Melkor then withdrew for a time from Arda to some other hidden place in the deeps of Eä.
In time, Manwë and his followers began to achieve their purpose, and make the World ready for the coming of the Children. Seeing this, Melkor grew jealous, and returned to do battle over the fate of Arda. The Earth then saw great upheaval as the rival powers struggled over its destiny (it is thought that the Misty Mountains were raised at this time). Slowly, though, and with great hardship, the Valar succeeded in shaping the World, although everything they created was in some way marred by Melkor.
The Nature of the Valar: Like the Elves, those Valar who chose to enter the World at its beginning are bound to it until it reaches its destined end; they may not return to the Timeless Halls of Ilúvatar.
As spirits, the Valar have no fixed physical form, although they often took the shapes of the Children of Ilúvatar. They could, though, assume any form they chose, or cast aside their shape altogether and travel formless and invisible through Arda. | 2019-04-20T04:57:05 | http://literature-dictionary.org/Valar |

I’m an ED physician, so I’m used to patients screaming at me — sometimes with earsplitting demands for heavy-duty painkillers, morphine drips and similar remedies that will numb or “fix” them. I can deal with this. What I can’t deal with is a health system that incentivizes physicians like me to medicate adult patients, especially those at high risk for substance abuse, with little thought given to their long-term wellbeing.
I explained to him as politely as possible that the law only requires me to medically screen and stabilize him, not medicate his pain, although I was happy to address his pain. He was furious — and ended up threatening all of us, pulling out his IV (and covering the room with blood) and storming out of the ED. That kind of reaction isn’t uncommon, and quite frankly, I was glad none of the staff were injured. The opioid epidemic is so out of hand that physicians and nurses are sometimes attacked by patients who are enraged when they can’t get the drugs they think they need. We are seeing very good doctors, exasperated by their inability to do anything meaningful, completely burn out (no surprise that surveys like this one reveal emergency medicine docs are the most burned-out physicians).
I wonder how many doctors out there would have given this man a prescription for OxyContin or an IV of Dilaudid? It would have certainly been easier than having a conversation about his drug dependency. Also, even if we are willing to have these conversations, we are frequently tasked with treating these patients blind, often times without verified information about their opioid use or other recent hospital visits or care plans — information that can be totally game-changing. But the larger concern at play here is that health systems are actually fueling — and incentivizing — opioid addiction through their policies.
How did we arrive at this moment where patients believe they are entitled to be pain-free at all times?
Our modern-day metrics and “value-based purchasing” were derived with noble intentions but have had profound unintended consequences. Patient-satisfaction surveys put out by non-physician administrators that are filled with questions like, “What’s your door-to-doc time? What’s your satisfaction with services rendered?” It’s like restaurant-satisfaction surveys translated to healthcare. Although we’ve made progress — CMS’ Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) Survey removed questions relating to pain in late 2016 — the damage has already been done. Healthcare systems follow government agency precedent, and many are still using satisfaction surveys tied to incentives, and many surveys still include questions regarding pain treatment.
This creates a system that gets you in and out, but not one that gets you healthy.
In order to truly help patients, we need to question such metrics and think more deeply about whether they are truly giving rise to the kind of outcomes the health system is supposed to foster. In our debates over health care, it’s all too easy to forget that the ultimate the goal is healthy people so we can have a healthy society full of people that can go make things, explore mountains and raise healthy kids.
So where does all of this leave physicians who truly want to move forward and help patients embroiled in the opioid epidemic? Can we move past the narrative of “happy patients equals good hospitals?” I wholeheartedly believe we can.
First, we must get rid of tie-in between satisfaction questions and pain. Hospitals should use other metrics to gauge satisfaction and quality of care.
We should also do our best to take stock of a patient’s whole medical history, including past ED visits. At Mat-Su ED in Alaska, we rely on a software network solution that pulls together essential patient medical data, including frequency of ED visits in our facility and outside hospitals, and pushes this data into a one-page document ready at the point of care. In reading this, I can quickly see if a patient has been frequenting other EDs or has had issues with opioids or other drugs in the past. This network system recently helped care teams in Washington State reduce ED use among frequent utilizers by 10.7 percent, and reduce narcotic prescriptions from the ED by 24 percent.
Remember that heroin user I saw who stormed out of the ED? Three days later that patient came back, profusely apologized and asked for help. We admitted him, and he is doing well today.
We are less likely to burn out if we know we’re doing the right thing for our patients in the fight to make a better system — even when they scream at you as a proxy for the health system that has failed them.
Anne Zink is an emergency physician. She is on the clinical advisory board, Collective Medical.
What does it mean to be well? Ask an opiate addict.
He was the perfect person to shop for health care. And he failed miserably. | 2019-04-19T02:54:32 | https://www.kevinmd.com/blog/2018/05/addressing-the-health-care-system-flaws-that-feed-the-opioid-crisis.html |

PRP contains growth factors which stimulate the body to repair and restore tissues using the body’s own natural processes. With this technique, you can rejuvenate the skin by isolating elements from the blood which can then be injected below wrinkles, folds and even acne scars.
Traditional Dermal Fillers are great in giving immediate effects, but these effects can wane over the course of a year. Platelet Rich Plasma, in contrast, can take a few months to work, but since it’s the patient’s own collagen that is generated, the effects can last 1-2 years. This is because the cytokines and stem cells continue to produce collagen long after the initial Platelet Rich Plasma injection.
Also, some people like the idea of looking better gradually so that others don’t see a drastic immediate change in their appearance. Platelet Rich Plasma can be a useful tool in achieving a gradual natural rejuvenation.
PRP offers a truly organic alternative to traditional dermal fillers. Since the patient’s own blood is used to rejuvenate their appearance, using PRP also alleviates the risk of allergic reaction or skin sensitivity.
Blood is drawn from a patient in a special test tube.
The tube in placed in a centrifuge, which spins at a specific rate and time to separate out the Platelet Rich Plasma.
The platelets and Platelet Rich Plasma are injected into the face, neck or body using tiny needles.
Over the next month, the growth of new collagen and other younger tissues, which improves the skin, is seen.
We recommend 3 sessions one month apart for best results.
Following the procedure, patients will notice some redness of the skin and a tight, tingling feeling. This is an indication that the healing and rejuvenation response has been activated. Over the next few months, patients will notice improved quality and suppleness in their skin.
There is no downtime except you cannot wash your face for 24 hours. Redness may be present but should be gone within 24 hours. This is minimal downtime compared to other laser treatments and less invasive than other aesthetics treatments. | 2019-04-21T12:32:35 | http://www.aznaturalmedicine.com/services/natural-aesthetics/prp-dermal-fillers-facial-rejuvenation/ |

Efficacy and tolerability of the new antiepileptic drugs, II: Treatment of refractory epilepsy: report of the TTA and QSS Subcommittees of the American Academy of Neurology and the American Epilepsy Society.
French JA1, Kanner AM, Bautista J, Abou-Khalil B, Browne T, Harden CL, Theodore WH, Bazil C, Stern J, Schachter SC, Bergen D, Hirtz D, Montouris GD, Nespeca M, Gidal B, Marks WJ Jr, Turk WR, Fischer JH, Bourgeois B, Wilner A, Faught RE Jr, Sachdeo RC, Beydoun A, Glauser TA; American Academy of Neurology Therapeutics and Technology Assessment Subcommittee; American Academy of Neurology Quality Standards Subcommittee; American Epilepsy Society Therapeutics and Technology Assessment Subcommittee; American Epilepsy Society Quality Standards Subcommittee.
To assess the evidence demonstrating efficacy, tolerability, and safety of seven new antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) [gabapentin (GBP), lamotrigine (LTG), topiramate (TPM), tiagabine (TGB), oxcarbazepine (OXC), levetiracetam (LEV), and zonisamide (ZNS)] in the treatment of children and adults with refractory partial and generalized epilepsies.
A 23-member committee, including general neurologists, pediatric neurologists, epileptologists, and doctors in pharmacy, evaluated the available evidence based on a structured literature review including MEDLINE, Current Contents, and Cochrane Library for relevant articles from 1987 to March 2003.
All of the new AEDs were found to be appropriate for adjunctive treatment of refractory partial seizures in adults. GBP can be effective for the treatment of mixed seizure disorders, and GBP, LTG, OXC, and TPM for the treatment of refractory partial seizures in children. Limited evidence suggests that LTG and TPM also are effective for adjunctive treatment of idiopathic generalized epilepsy in adults and children, as well as treatment of the Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.
The choice of AED depends on seizure and/or syndrome type, patient age, concomitant medications, and AED tolerability, safety, and efficacy. The results of this evidence-based assessment provide guidelines for the prescription of AEDs for patients with refractory epilepsy and identify those seizure types and syndromes for which more evidence is necessary. | 2019-04-19T02:16:42 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15101822?dopt=Abstract |

Tips in Preparing for Your First Road Trip in 2019 | Trip Crazed .
Road trips are the best; they are very convenient and affordable. You can travel at your own pace, stop wherever you want and visit any place you wish. It gives you full control of your travel and helps you avoid congested airports and stations. However, if you are new on the road and it is your first time to go on a road trip, you need to prepare yourself properly to avoid any mishaps. It is also applicable if you have had bad experiences of traveling in the past.
It is the beginning of the year and what better way to start it than going on a road trip adventure. There are too many beautiful and awesome to visit, and you can spice up your year by going on a trip before things get busy. Of course, you would want your first road trip of the year to be a success whether you are going on alone or in the company of your favorite people in the world.
Going spontaneous doesn’t work all the time. It could give you a lot of fun and stress at the same time. It could also provide you with trouble and problems in the middle of the road. Therefore, the best way to enjoy your road trip is to plan it ahead of time. Prepare a plan, list down all important things you need to prepare and make sure you get them done before the trip. Pack accordingly and bring necessary documents. Even when you are planning to save, make sure you bring emergency money since you do not know what you can encounter on the road. You also need to decide whether you will stay in hotels or eat in restaurants, so you know how much to budget.
Once you have decided on the place you will visit, it is time to map your route. You need to plan your stops, where to get gas, where to eat, where to rest and the places you will visit. It will make traveling more comfortable for you, and it will prevent odd situations like running out of gas in unexpected parts of the road. You also need to check on traffic condition as well as road conditions and whether there are road and maintenance works ahead, so you know what to expect.
Depending on the length of your trip and where you will go, you need to pack appropriate and enough clothing. You also need to prepare for emergency supplies as well as food if you are planning to cook or camp out. You need to make sure you bring your essentials as well as medicine for common illnesses. Do not forget to bring an extra gallon of gas as well as your car repair kit.
Before going on a road trip, visit a mobile auto detailing College Station servicer so they can clean and check on your car correctly. If there are minor repairs that need to get done, take the car to your mechanic. You would want your car to be in top running condition especially since you will be traveling far from home. If you need expert detailing service, visit our shop so we can offer you our best services. | 2019-04-20T08:30:26 | http://www.tripcrazed.com/article/tips-in-preparing-for-your-first-road-trip-in-2019/ |

One breezy spring day, as I sat by an open window, I began enjoying the rustling sounds of the trees. These serene sounds, born by the wind, were enhanced as it inspired the birds to sing and created other sounds. I found myself comparing these blended natural sounds to the same soothing effect of music. The wind seemed to be the conductor of this natural symphony, and like music, it has the power to stir the heart and mind. The words for this poem came to mind on that breezy spring day.
That makes us happy the wind came along.
To add their lovely voices to the wind's choir.
That grows more enchanting as it goes along.
Which awakens and inspires a spirit within us.
Touching the hearts of all as it travels along.
That humbles and reminds us where we belong.
Until finally the Earth is no more and ends its song.
Thank you for sharing this poem with all of us. My family recently lost my father-in-law. He was battling cancer and in his last few hours, I decided to read some poems to comfort him along with prayer and Psalms. This poem, in particular, was the last I recited to him before he passed. I wanted to help him focus on nature and God, and this poem was very helpful in doing that. Death can be difficult for many, but I believe the soothing words from prayer and poems gently helped him carry on into his peace with it. | 2019-04-19T04:56:43 | https://www.familyfriendpoems.com/poem/the-winds-grand-opus |
On 18 August 2015 the Australian Government (through the then-Treasurer Joe Hockey) directed its Productivity Commission (PC) to undertake a 12 month public inquiry into Australia's intellectual property (IP) system.
The PC’s draft report was released on 29 April 2016. and is open for further submissions and feedback up until Friday, 3 June 2016. The PC then anticipates holding public hearings during June, most likely in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra. The final report to the Government (whomever that may be, given that an election is anticipated in the meantime) is due in August.
It seems safe to say that many of the PC’s draft recommendations will prove controversial. Of course, being a review of the entire IP system it takes in copyright, trade marks, registered designs, plant breeder’s rights, and various related areas of public policy. As usual, however, my focus here is to summarise the draft recommendations relating to the patent system in particular. In future articles I will be discussing some of these proposals in more detail.
In the PC’s view, the 2014 Raising the Bar reforms to the standards required in order to obtain a patent in Australia did not go far enough, particularly in relation to the test of inventive step.
I can hardly disagree with this proposal, at least. I have said as much myself (see Can the High Court Fix Australia’s Obviousness Problem?) and the PC has kindly cited that article in its own discussion of the issue.
The PC would also like to see the required level of ‘inventiveness’ over the prior art raised, although it is somewhat vague about how this might be achieved, given that it is a matter that is largely in the hands of the courts, and may also be subject to obligations under international treaties.
My only comment on this is that it does not seem very workable to me.
I can see that setting higher maintenance fees in the later years of a patent might well be effective in causing patentees to abandon patents that are no longer delivering sufficient commercial value. However, I am not sure why the PC believes that applying claim fees will have any effect on the breadth or strategic use of patents.
I do not agree, although I do think that the innovation patent system should be reformed.
This is, in my view, a bad recommendation which is based on a flawed analysis and poor understanding of the role and nature of software in modern innovation. I will be covering this at length in a separate article.
Actually, I must say that I am a little surprised that the PC has not proposed more significant restrictions on terms extensions, such as were suggested in the previous government’s Pharmaceutical Patents Review.
The PC also considers that there should be no further extension to the term of protection for data relating to biologics (although I was under the impression that this was already settled, anyway, following the conclusion of the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement negotiations).
So-called ‘pay-for-delay’, or reverse payment arrangements, are also of concern to the PC. These are forms of patent dispute settlement agreements in which are patent holders pay competitors who have threatened to enter the market and challenge the validity of the patent, in exchange for a delaying in the competitor’s entry to the market.
The PC is also seeking input on a number of specific topics. I am simply going to reproduce the patent-related requests below. Readers with particular interest and experience in these areas should refer to the draft report for more details on the PC’s objectives and requirements.
Obviously, I encourage interested stakeholders to read the draft report, and to consider making submissions on aspects of interest or concern. I anticipate making submissions in relation to select draft recommendations, and will be writing about these is upcoming articles. I will welcome any comments and discussion here, or on those future articles, that might inform or clarify my thinking on the relevant issues. | 2019-04-18T12:24:45 | https://blog.patentology.com.au/2016/05/australian-productivity-commission.html |

Bruno Mantovani: "La piazza Santo Stefano from Le Sette Chiese"
Bruno Mantovani was born on October 8, 1974. After receiving five first prizes from the Paris Conservatory (analysis, aesthetics, orchestration, composition, music history) and attending the computer music Cursus at Ircam, he began an international career. His works have been performed at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the Philharmonie in Cologne, the KKL in Lucerne, La Scala in Milan, Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Centre in New York, the Cité de la musique and the Salle Pleyel in Paris. Faithful to his preferred performers, he collaborates with prestigious soloists (Jean-Efflam Bavouzet, Alain Billard, Jean-Guihen Queyras, Antoine Tamestit, Tabea Zimmermann), conductors (Pierre Boulez, Sir Andrew Davis, Peter Eötvös, Laurence Equilbey, Gunter Herbig, Emmanuel Krivine, Susanna Mälkki, Jonathan Nott, Pascal Rophé François-Xavier Roth), ensembles (Accentus, Intercontemporain, TM+) and orchestras (Bamberg Symphony, BBC Cardiff, Chicago Symphony, WDR Cologne, La Chambre Philharmonique, Frankfurt Radio Orchestra, Liège Philharmonic, BBC London, Lucerne Academy, Orchestre de Paris, Paris Opera Orchestra, Philharmonic Orchestra of Radio France, Sarrebrücken Radio Orchestra, Czech Philharmonic, NHK Tokyo, RAI Turin, Sinfonia Varsovia, RSO Vienna). He is the headmaster of the Paris Conservatory since September 2010.
Starting in 2010 he began an extended collaboration with the Paris Opera (premier of the ballet Siddharta during the first season, and an opera based on the life of Russian poet Anna Akhmatova in March 2011). Inspired by the relationships linking music with other forms of artistic expression, he has collaborated with novelists Hubert Nyssen and Eric Reinhardt, librettists Christophe Ghristi and François Regnault, chef Ferran Adrià, choreographers Jean-Christophe Maillot and Angelin Preljocaj, and film maker Pierre Coulibeuf. His work is often a reflection on the history of Western music (Bach, Gesualdo, Rameau, Schubert, Schumann) or popular forms (jazz, Eastern music). Bruno Mantovani is also a conductor, and regularly conducts contemporary music ensembles (Accentus, Alternance, Cepheus, Intercontemporain, Sospeso, TM+) as well as the National Orchestra of Lille.
Upcoming projects include a work for the Ensemble Modern Orchestra conducted by Pierre Boulez, another for the Gewandhaus Orchestra in Leipzig with Riccardo Chailly, and a violin concerto dedicated to Renaud Capuçon. | 2019-04-25T02:13:23 | http://2011.sonicfestival.org/node/40 |

Nick, proud because his advisory won the egg drop competition!
Nick Johnson, Math, music and ping pong teacher extraordinaire shares with us about his students and journey teaching at Rudsdale Newcomer (RN).
How did you come to teach at Rudsdale’s newcomer program?
This is my 8th year in Oakland Unified, and my second year at RN. Before I started here, I taught for six years in the Home and Hospital (H&H) department (working with students who were medically unable to attend classes at school).
Like Rudsdale Newcomer, the Home and Hospital department falls under the Alt-Ed umbrella, so my supervisor in that job was Lucia Moritz (Director of Alt-Ed). When RN was being planned, Dr. Moritz, who knew that I was considering a shift back towards teaching in a classroom, thought that I would be interested and suggested that I apply. I’m so happy that I did and that I got the job – I really love our school!
What areas do you teach?
I teach the Algebra and Geometry classes (my credential is in math), and sometimes Econ. On Wednesdays, we have electives and I teach a music class (students can choose between guitar, ukulele, and piano) and also a ping-pong class. It’s great to be able to work with some of the same students I teach in my math classes in a different context with music or ping-pong. Among other things (like being really fun), it also helps us build better relationships, and it’s nice to be able to teach when students get to choose their electives and are usually extra enthusiastic and motivated to learn.
Back when I was teaching in H&H, often working with students 1-on-1, the nature of the job provided the flexibility to work with students on some electives of their choosing in addition to their core academic classes. I would frequently ask students to pick an instrument or a language that they wanted to learn. I wasn’t always particularly qualified to teach whatever they happened to choose, but it was fun to learn things along with students, and I’m really grateful to be able to continue doing things like music and language instruction in addition to math, this time in a classroom environment.
How does your math class work in terms of the different levels students come in with?
Of course, in any classroom you’ll encounter students with a range of previous experiences with whatever the subject, but that range is quite large with our students.
Including as many visuals as I can come up with on my instructional slides.
Incorporating as many hands-on activities as I can find or think of.
Bringing in as many capable volunteers as I can to provide individualized attention and support.
Allowing for differentiation and choice. This applies both to the level of a particular math task a student feels ready to try (aka “low floor, high ceiling” tasks, which range from very basic to the tricky and subtle “bonus” challenge problems), and also, at times, to what topic a student wants to spend time on at all. For example, I have many students who are initially unable to tell time on the analog clocks on our classroom walls, and other students for whom spending any instructional time on that would feel insultingly trivial. So on certain days I’ll ask students to choose what they want to work on, or when we do our weekly computer math time, they can pick which topic and level they want to try. This is one of many things I saw when I observed math teachers at Oakland International a few years ago.
Strategic L1/L2 use. I speak Spanish, and I use it frequently in class if I feel like a student is on the brink of becoming too confused or frustrated (as many people would attest, math can be plenty daunting in one’s native language). Unlike other newcomer schools like Oakland International, virtually all of our students either understand Spanish, or have a peer in class who speaks both Spanish and their L1 (be it Mam, Jakaltek/Popti’, etc), so direct translation is almost always an option.
What kinds of activities do you find effective to engage students in math?
However, I definitely don’t think that math needs to always be “real-world” (in the immediately applicable sense) to be engaging. Math can mean simply using logic and reason, and people are naturally curious and generally like to feel challenged, so long as they understand what they’re being asked and aren’t too overwhelmed/intimidated. I have some math puzzles on my desk, like a Rubik’s Cube and the Tower of Hanoi puzzle, and even the most otherwise disengaged students will often wander over and start trying those out, without any motivation or encouragement from me.
Like most math teachers, I’m acutely aware of math’s reputation among the general public. But also like most math teachers, I love math and think that anyone can enjoy it, too. And I think if you show students something that you are genuinely enthusiastic about, they pick up on that. Whatever the problem is, if a student is into it, you can always take it a step further, with drawing it, graphing it, coming up with a rule, extending the problem in various ways.
I just think that all of the hard work that my very talented and committed coworkers have put in over the past year and a half is really paying off, in terms of RN becoming such a warm and welcoming place, and I think that anyone who visits our campus can feel it. Also our students are just such wonderful and inspiring young people.
In terms of other bright spots, there have just been so many moments of joy and struggle in my classroom that have made me beam. A lot of our students show such growth, and quite quickly, be it in their English or math abilities, or just in their confidence in themselves in a classroom environment. But honestly, the thing that makes me smile the most is the enthusiasm with which some students have taken to learning an instrument or ping-pong. I have a number of students who come in to my room daily at lunch to keep practicing their instruments.
And even more gratifying/surprising, there’s a group of students who get out the ping-pong table almost every day at lunch to play pick-up games in the courtyard, such that it’s now spread to a bunch of students who never took the ping-pong elective. There’s not a much better feeling as a teacher than to introduce something to students and then watch them keep coming back to it on their own, and teach it to others. One of our students who just graduated last month wrote me a letter in which she thanked me for both pushing her in class, and for teaching her ping-pong, because before that she didn’t like sports. It makes me cry every time I read it. | 2019-04-21T16:22:56 | https://ellmaspotlights.wordpress.com/2019/01/05/nick-johnson-on-the-wonderful-and-inspiring-young-people-he-teaches-at-rudsdale-continuation-school/ |

Harvey Nichols' print ad starring Bo Gilbert, Carlsberg's "90 minute break" and The Guardian's "Independence" take the lead in the top 10 press ads of 2016.
1. Harvey Nichols "Bo Gilbert – the 100-year-old model"
The department store celebrated Vogue UK’s 100th anniversary by featuring 100-year-old model Bo Gilbert in the centenary issue.
Adam & Eve/DDB created the campaign to address ageism in the fashion industry as well as promote the retailer’s willingness to "do things differently". The elegant images were shot by renowned fashion photographer Phil Poynter, launch creative director of Dazed.
The campaign helped earn Adam & Eve/DDB the coveted Press Agency of the Year title at this year’s Campaign Big Awards.
2. Carlsberg "90 minute break"
On the day of the Euro 2016 England v Wales clash in June, Carlsberg unveiled a tactical press ad in Metro in which fake research company C.A.R.L.S.B.E.R.G. implored company bosses to institute a 90-minute break for staff at 2pm, so fans would be able to watch the game.
3. The Guardian "Guardian independence"
Hot on the heels of The Independent closing its print edition, Bartle Bogle Hegarty created an unapologetic campaign for The Guardian to celebrate its independence and that it remains free to read online, unlike some competitors.
A set of ads were launched featuring provocative statements in The Guardian’s "Egyptian" typeface including "Buy a newspaper that can’t be bought" and "No one edits our editor". Subtle details feature too, such as a gun crosshair and a crossed ballot paper.
The multicoloured-sweet brand launched a campaign for this year’s Pride in London festival with a print announcement that Skittles would give up its rainbow "to focus on the one rainbow that matters… Pride’s".
The striking black-and-white ad was published in June as an open letter to Pride in London, with text formatted as a rainbow in a corner of the page. Skittles also launched an outdoor campaign during the Pride celebrations, where monochrome packets of Skittles were given out, as well as animated activity on social media.
5. The Prince’s Trust "Parallel lives"
Two very different versions of people’s lives are laid bare in this powerful work by CHI & Partners for The Prince’s Trust’s 40th anniversary.
The mirrored shots depict how a person’s life is versus what it could have become had they not received support from the charity, which helps young people receive education and training.
6. Financial Times "Happy Women’s Day"
To highlight the fact that only 26% of board members of FTSE 100 companies are women, Adam & Eve/DDB turned the iconic pink page of the Financial Times blue (except for a narrow 26% strip that remained pink) and wished readers a "Happyish International Women’s Day".
FT social sites were also turned 74% blue to show how far the business world still has to go to achieve equality.
Tesco added vinyl to its inventory this year after sales of old-fashioned records surged to a 21-year high in 2015.
To announce the retro move, Bartle Bogle Hegarty created a series of memorable print ads, which combined well-known album imagery with supermarket produce, such as a banana in a nod to The Velvet Underground’s 1967 debut album, The Velvet Underground & Nico.
8. Paddy Power "Thank you Sam"
A national sporting scandal deserves a great tactical ad and Lucky Generals duly delivered in September by lauding Sam Allardyce’s very short reign as England football manager. Allardyce, who was sacked for inappropriate comments made during a newspaper sting by The Daily Telegraph, was thanked by Paddy Power for being (technically) the greatest England manager of all time: he presided over only one match, which they won – and even kept a clean sheet.
The work appeared in The Sun and depicts the brand’s identity as fun and irreverent.
9. Financial Times "Facts. Truths"
To promote the paper’s US election coverage in November, the Financial Times set itself in opposition to posttruth politics with a campaign including statistics and insight about issues such as household income, immigration, trade and manufacturing.
Much of the creative was developed in collaboration with the title’s journalists.

Ottawa, November 27, 2018 – The Canadian Construction Association (CCA) and 100 of its members are gathering on Parliament Hill today to meet with federal decision makers about the essential role the industry plays in the lives of Canadians. CCA is a 20,000 firm strong organization drawing membership from 63 local and provincial construction associations in every province and territory. Annually construction is responsible for nearly $119 billion in economic activity or 7 per cent of Canada’s overall gross domestic product (GDP).
“Our central message is that the Canadian Construction industry is the backbone of the government’s Investing in Canada plan,” said Zey Emir, CCA Chair. “Our industry employs 1.4 million Canadians, many who work for small- or medium-sized firms. The government’s continued investment in infrastructure spending and commitment to ensuring that the funds flow to communities is essential to a vibrant Canada, ” Zey continued.
Today also marks a very important milestone in CCA’s history as they celebrate 100 years of service building a better Canada. | 2019-04-24T12:23:12 | https://www.vicabc.ca/resources/industry-news/canadian-construction-industry-on-the-hill--unite.-evolve.-lead |

Modern personal computing devices – tablets, smartphones, smartwatches, fitness trackers, remote controls – represent an ever-more-pervasive component of everyday life. Alongside this trend toward an increase in computing that you bring with you, we also continually encounter devices that exist both in tangible spaces and in the electronic domain. While this computationally augmented reality exists around us, interactions with this embedded, encountered computation rarely achieves the fluidity that one would desire. As a simple example, consider connecting your laptop or smartphone to a data projector. It almost always works well … except when it does not. In this talk, I will detail some of our early work leveraging personal devices as computational proxies to control and manipulate external computation. Motivated by our early work on motion gestures for smartphone input, I will describe on-going research projects leveraging commodity smartwatches as proxies to support WIMP-style input, text input, and rich gestural input to external computation. Because this work lies in the domain of free-space gestural input, I will also discuss our work on enhancing both the reliability and the perceived reliability of gesture recognition for end-users. I will conclude by outlining our emerging vision of wearables and personal devices as a platform for the rich, subtle, and transient interactions necessary in an ever-more ubicomp-based reality.

Back in 2003, theatre reviewer Richard Zoglin of Time Magazine once wrote, “If every musical had a brain, a heart and the courage of Wicked, Broadway really would be a magical place.” From August 26 to October 4, that magical place of which Mr. Zoglin referred will be right here in the valley, on stage at ASU Gammage, Tempe.
Wicked: The Untold Story of the Witches of Oz returns to Arizona for a full six week run, only this time the hugely popular Stephen Schwartz musical features among its cast a home grown valley native.
Beka Burnham was born and raised in Apache Junction, Arizona and is currently touring with the show all over the country. While preparing for a performance at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle, Washington, Beka took a few moments to talk not only about the musical but also of her time with local valley theatres.
We’ll get to Wicked in just a moment, but first, growing up here in the valley, at what local community theatre groups did you perform?
Let me think. I did a lot of work at Mesa Community College in their theatre program. I did a lot of my shows with them. I did some work at Greasepaint. There was A Christmas Carol with Actors Theatre, and I did a stage reading with Phoenix Theatre. I think I was either twelve or thirteen, but, yeah, that was fun.
How about Valley Youth Theatre?
No, I didn’t. I went to see all of their shows, though. Hale Theatre, that was another one.
And was your mind always focused on acting?
Pretty much. I started acting with my church. The church had an acting troupe, so I started acting classes there. And then eventually I started taking voice lessons, and then I discovered musical theatre and I fell in love with that. Then the ball kept rolling and I kept going with it. Acting is still my primary focus though, and I love it.
How did that leap from community player to professional come about?
Well, this is pretty much my first professional big job. I went to college for musical theatre so that gave me the training I needed, and then I graduated last year and somehow I got this job.
Is it true that you were a season ticket holder for ASU Gammage?
Yes, me and my family.
So, is it also true the first time you saw Wicked, it was just a few years ago right here on the Gammge stage as a season ticket holder?
Yes, it was. I saw it there first and it has been since then my favorite show, ever.
From an audience perspective, not as a performer, what was your initial reaction to the show?
Oh, gosh, I think I was just blown away by the spectacle of it. I had never seen anything that was so powerful and moving and beautiful at the same time. I feel the show has everything. It has the story line, it has the spectacle, it has the singing and dancing. It has the full package. I’ve seen it a few times since, but that first time, I’ll never forget it.
When you auditioned for Wicked what were the requirements? Were you asked to a sing something specific from the show or did you go in with something else prepared?
I sang from the show. My agent sent me to the audition. I understudy for Glinda and Nessarose, and the first audition was just Glinda material. The call back was Glinda and Nessa material, and then a dance routine.
How many call backs did you eventually have to go through?
Just one and the dance callback.
Can you remember the first thing you did when you were told you were in?
When I was told I got the job? I fell to the floor of my apartment and I started crying. I really did. I know that sounds dramatic but I did. And then I called my mom.
And how did she react?
She couldn’t believe it. I think she was in shock. It was all really sudden and I had just moved to New York and it was, like, well, I guess I’m leaving now. Very strange.
How long have you been on the road touring?
Now that you’re away from home, what’s the biggest thing that has surprised you about life on the road in a national tour?
Hmm. That’s a good question. I would have to say I didn’t know how much of a family it would be out here. The tour is very much a little family, and everyone takes care of each other and looks out for each other. I wasn’t expecting that. I guess I was kind of expecting it to be pretty cut throat and you’re on your own, that kind of thing, but it’s not like that. I feel taken care of. I’m one of the younger people in the show so, you know, I feel very lucky to be here with these seasoned actors and performers who have been doing this for a long time. That’s probably been the most surprising thing to me. How great everyone has been.
Are you constantly in a state of rehearsal as you go from city to city?
Pretty much. I think that just from being an understudy you end up having a little more rehearsal, and I cover two roles, so it’s… yeah, it’s a lot of rehearsal, but I like it. It keeps it fresh and it keeps me busy. I love the understudy work. That’s my favorite part of the job, I think.
Those ensemble costumes look surprisingly elaborate and cumbersome. Did wearing them take some getting used to?
Yes! Indeed. I have a hat in the show in the Emerald City numbers. It comes across my face. We call it the Saturn Hat because it’s like a ring around my face. The first week or so it kept getting in my eyes and I would, like, run into things. I didn’t know how to manage it. Now it’s no problem because I’m used to it, but for the first couple of weeks it was pretty interesting.
As you’ve said, in addition to the ensemble, you also understudy for both Glinda and Nessarose. Has the opportunity to play either occurred very often?
There’s definitely been long gaps in-between, but I feel I’ve gone on somewhat a lot. I’ve gone on for Glinda maybe ten times and for Nessaroase, seven, so it happens every once in awhile, and when it does happen it’s always fun; it’s exciting, it’s… it’s just a blast.
What’s the shortest time you were given the nod that you were going on as either Glinda or Nessarose?
I found out about Nessarose once just thirty minutes before the show. I got to the theatre and I started getting ready for my Ensemble Check and I then I heard, well, Beka will be on for Nessarose because something happened just before the show. I kind of like that better because you have less time to panic. and you just do it, and it ends up being a little, I think, more fun for me. It’s like being shot out of a cannon. You have no time and you’ve gotta go.
When substituting for Glinda, how daunting is that moment when you make your entrance from way above connected to that bubble? Are you afraid of heights?
I’m not. I love heights. So, that helps. Entering like that is an amazing feeling, being up in that bubble like that. The curtain goes up and you come down. You see bubbles everywhere, floating about. It’s amazing to start a show like that. It’s one of the most exciting entrances in musical theatre, ever.
Do you ever sneak a peak at the audience when you’re up there, floating down?
I never really have looked at the audience while playing Glinda. I think it’s kind of distracting and the lights are so bright. It works for me to always be in the show and never to look out at the audience.
Your run in the valley at ASU Gammage is for six weeks. Will you have a chance to catch up with family and friends?
It’ll be a lot of work but I plan on living back at home while I’m there and I’ll commute everyday, so I think that’ll help. I’ll get to spend some time with my family that way. We get one day off a week. I have a lot of nieces and nephews in the valley and I can’t wait to see them all.
And finally, knowing that an actor’s life is constantly looking for that next audition, what are your future plans? Are you with Wicked for some time or is there something else on the horizon, waiting in the wings?
Nothing right now. I’m really happy right now. I feel lucky to have this job and to be here, but I’m looking forward to the time when I go back to New York and do the audition grind again. I know it’ll happen eventually.

The key to successful deployment of Kubernetes lies in picking the right environment based on the available infrastructure, existing investments, the application needs and available talent. Depending on whether Kubernetes is deployed on premises, on a single cloud provider, hybrid cloud or multi-cloud, users will face different technical challenges and will need a different set of tools for deployment. These factors also affect how operations teams approach security with Kubernetes, and it’s critical to understand security in the context of these environments. | 2019-04-18T14:34:47 | https://info.aquasec.com/ebook_kubernetes-deployments-security-patterns |

Presentation Title: Digital Twins and Artificial Intelligence — the Future of Simulations?
Presentation Abstract: Simulation techniques are an important approach to understand systems, which are too complex and dynamic to compute their behavior analytically. However, simulations need reliable models and realistic input data to represent the world in a sufficient manner. With the emergence of the Internet-Of-Things and the possibility to retrieve real data in huge distributed scenarios we can now gain much more insights into the details of real systems, which leads to the approach of digital twins. For replicating reality, digital twins are one of the most promising trends, currently especially used in Industry 4.0 scenarios but also in other domains. Based on the details digital twins do offer, the potential of AI techniques such as (meta-)machine learning can be exploited to use data for intelligent decision making also in simulations. In his talk, Prof. Albayrak will describe the features of digital twin technology combined with AI techniques and what they mean to the simulation research area. The talk will underline the importance of digital twins by showing two projects regarding autonomous driving and process optimization in production plants.
Biography: Professor Albayrak received his Ph. D. in Computer Science at the TU Berlin in 1992. He is the Head of the Distributed Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (DAI-Labor), which was founded by him in 1992. In 2003, he was appointed as Professor at the TU Berlin; chair “Agent Technologies in Business Applications and Telecommunication”. He is a founding member and member of the Steering Board of Deutsche Telekom Laboratories (Concern Research of the Deutsche Telekom AG), since 2004. He is the founding member of the Center for ICT (EICT) in Berlin, 2005. He is an Initiator and CEO of the “Connected Living e.V.” innovation center, which has more than 50 members from research and industry, since 2009. He is the Chief Executive Director of the German-Turkish Advanced ICT Research Centre (GT-ARC) based in Berlin and Istanbul, since 2012. He is an Entrepreneur and founder of various start-ups, most recently IOLITE GmbH, 2014.

We represent approximately 25 properties along Church Street and the surrounding neighborhood — all in close proximity to the Peirce School. Some of us have lived in the area for decades, while others have purchased properties over the last 10 years.
In some cases, we worked closely with the city regarding zoning and permitted use for months prior to purchase. We were all attracted to the stately neighborhood, with its elegant single-family homes and friendly neighbors. For most of us, these homes are our single most important investment.
The prospect of Belfast approving the conversion of Peirce School into a multi-unit, long-term rental building with six two-bedroom apartments and two one-bedroom apartments has us concerned, and we have asked for more time to gather information.
To be clear, we are not anti-renter (in fact, many of us are renters in other localities). Rather, our concerns also include the open-ended zoning changes that may open the door to future development without appropriate limitations, and without the need of neighborhood input.
The city notified us about this proposed project, helmed by Reservoir Ventures LLC, during the busy holiday season. We spent the past few weeks trying to follow facts, and despite apprehensions we tried to remain open-minded. We are as much focused on the "process" that brought us to this point as on the analysis of a specific project.
As a result of 2014 zoning discussions, the Peirce building is currently R1 zoned for two condos, although a buyer may request a change in use for a four-unit conversion. There are a variety of non-residential uses currently permitted as well, some of which also may cause concern, primarily because the city has limited mechanisms to control “quality of life” issues once a project has been approved.
To that end, we wish to correct the public record related to the most recent occupant of the building. Once the neighborhood was aware of the marijuana grow farm (an entirely different discussion should occur about why it came as a surprise to many of us), we all tried to be good neighbors.
It is not accurate to say there were no complaints. When we made calls regarding any issues, because of the current zoning we were told there was nothing the city could do. We don't want to be in a similar situation with this or any other project.
Our neighborhood was struck by the size change at the center of the Reservoir proposal as much as by the rental versus condo issue, because allowing eight units in the building would represent a 100-percent increase over the units allowed under current zoning.
A project of this size — keeping in mind the 24/7 nature of any apartment building which differs from its previous incarnations as a school or music conservatory — may have a negative impact on the neighborhood by increasing street traffic, quantity and quality of lighting, and noise levels.
An unsightly lighted parking lot with 18 to 24 parked cars might be a visual blight on this verdant and gracious neighborhood, not to mention the prospect of maintenance-related noise (dumpster retrieval, delivery trucks, day-to-day operations and repairs).
Additionally, as of this writing, there are no zoning caps or limits on the number of units in the building or expanded construction on the grounds — so the eight proposed today could expand to 10 or even 14 (as the original abutter's notice seemed to suggest).
Aside from floor plans and pre-renovation drawings, there are no interior unit mock-ups or exterior renderings depicting the finished project in the 60-page proposal submitted to the city. These tools would be valuable, especially as we evaluate potential repairs to the large, historic windows and the placement of HVAC and electrical equipment.
Overall, we have sought information regarding the scale of the project, in addition to the type of conversion allowed under new zoning rules, because we have a natural concern over the potential impact to home values. We believe this impact warrants careful, impartial study by outside experts.
We are also unclear about the definition of "affordable" versus "workforce" housing as it pertains to the Belfast market, and believe the city should clarify these terms in tandem with any proposed zoning change.
Additionally, will the city separate regulations that govern long-term rentals from short-term rentals like Airbnb, which are currently unregulated? These become significant requests for a project of this scale in our neighborhood.
A renter, by definition, has a different obligation to their respective living environment and relies on property managers to maintain living standards. We have requested information on this particular manager's track record and reputation — not out of malice, but because several of us are experienced property managers and have questions about the operational numbers.
This is an old, historic building with unique renovation challenges, to include ADA compliance and the incorporation of new ramps and appropriate parking. It will require qualified experience and a great deal of money.
On this front, because project scrutiny should never be portrayed as vindictiveness, we are requesting that the city delve deeper into the phased-renovation portion of this project and consider a performance bond requirement to certify that the venture is appropriately capitalized prior to final approval.
In other localities, this type of project — given Reservoir Ventures' lack of large-scale work to date — would warrant such a move. This is not a punitive measure; it is simply a community safeguard.
We are in favor of appropriate development, and recognize we may all have different notions of what belongs in this building. But our diversity is our strength, and it’s what makes Belfast special.
We don't want history to repeat itself. The zoning changes being considered are overly broad, and that leaves the neighborhood in a perpetually defensive position.
It is unfair to our neighborhood, and does a disservice to Reservoir Ventures LLC, to move forward without the benefit of more time, outside professional analysis, impact studies, specific project information and a broader discussion of rental housing needs in Belfast. | 2019-04-18T18:18:15 | https://waldo.villagesoup.com/p/1796259 |
With immediate effect, the version V1.2 of the SINAMICS Technology Extension SERVCOUP has been released for general delivery. A Technology Extension (TEC) is also known as Open Architecture (OA) application.
For SINAMICS, the SINAMICS Technology Extension SERVCOUP (Servo Coupling) from the Advanced Technology Functions is an extension for the SERVO drive object.
In the SERVO control mode, SERVCOUP allows motors to be operated which, as a result of their size and/or type of construction, cannot be operated from an individual SINAMICS S120 power unit. These motors are split up into several drive objects, each of which can be operated on a Motor Module, and can be coupled with one another. As a consequence, the individual drive objects can be seen as partial motors with their own winding and terminals.
Irrespective of the number of coupled drive objects, only one encoder is required for the operation of the motor because the Technology Extension SERVCOUP implements a digital encoder splitter in the Control Unit. In this way, the actual encoder values together with the setpoint specifications are passed on to all encoderless drive objects.
When compared to hardware-based solutions, this provides advantages regarding wiring costs, degree of ruggedness and the number of hardware components required.
For motors with fewer drive objects, several SERVO couplings can be operated on one Control Unit. One possible application is operating two SERVCOUP-controlled double-winding motors on one Control Unit.
For these motors, the use of the Technology Extension SERVCOUP must be tested and released on an individual basis.
A detailed description of the product properties and the special motor characteristics can be found in the following Function Manual: 109749781.
A configuration manual is available for segment motors SIMOTICS T-1FW68 with SINAMICS S120 and Technology Extension SERVCOUP: 109742105.
The SERVCOUP can be activated on the SERVO drive object, where it is also parameterized.
The use of SERVCOUP requires a license. The Runtime license can be ordered via article number 6SL3077-0AA00-8AB0. The license does not depend on the SERVCOUP version.
The current SERVCOUP version V1.2 is available for download at 109748370.
There are no supplementary conditions and functional restrictions for SERVCOUP. | 2019-04-23T08:43:14 | https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/document/109748353/sinamics-technology-extension:-delivery-release-of-the-version-v1-2-from-servcoup-(servo-coupling)?lc=en-WW |

Jeanneau Yachts have been building superior sailing yachts for over 50 years. Their hallmarks are precision engineering and innovation, qualities that have pushed the company to the pinnacle of the boat building industry.
Their designers and architects have been among the first to embrace the most advanced methods of yacht construction and this unique combination of function and design enables them to produce captivating and inspiring yachts that stand the test of time. The two concepts that set Jeanneau yachts apart - design and construction - are integral to the world-wide success of the brand.
For a yacht to be successful it must first be pleasing to the eye; the form and flow of the lines of a Jeanneau are aesthetically pleasing both above and below the waterline. The company is responsive to the suggestions of their customers and have incorporated many of their suggestions into future designs.
The second important factor in their appeal is that of performance: a Jeanneau is responsive, agile and most importantly - fast. They provide superior control ahead and astern under power and their well-balanced sail plans make for easy handling even in the most testing conditions. Their high-end sails, modern hulls and quality deck hardware all help with fast, effortless passage making.
By utilising cutting-edge moulding processes Jeanneau can produce an immensely strong frame with a lower all-up weight, yet do it in a more environmentally friendly manner than other building techniques. Below decks, the company's passion for rich interior woodworking is another signature of quality. Fine quality hardwoods and strong marine composites are cut to industrial tolerances before being assembled by Jeanneau's team of expert craftsmen. As one of the world's largest boatbuilding groups, Jeanneau can source the highest quality materials at very competitive prices and these savings enable the costs to the yacht owner to be reduced markedly. As an ISO 9001 company, their building processes are certified to the highest international standards.
Elegant, fast and powerful, the 49 slips quietly through the waves in all weathers. At the helm twin steering positions provide excellent all-round visibility and its sleek, easily driven hull surprises everyone with its turn of speed, even in the lightest weather. This enables faster and longer passages to be made effortlessly. Its large, deep, roomy cockpit allows the crew to relax in extraordinary comfort and safety while the miles slip unnoticed under the keel. The deck hardware allows the sails to be handled easily and an electric winch enables even the younger crew to furl the sails without difficulty. There are not many yachts of this size that can be handled in all weathers by the skipper and one crew! A bow thruster makes light work of very tight berthing situations.
Step below and you will marvel at the 49's exceptional liveable space, where an abundance of natural light and fresh air give a commanding sense of space. The warm colouring of the woodwork combines beautifully with the cream leather soft furnishings to create a feeling of sumptuous luxury. A first glance will take in a spacious saloon, a large galley and well-appointed navigation station.
The spacious forecabin has full standing headroom, a large double bed with access from both sides, a dressing station with single pedestal stool, and as much hanging and locker space as you will ever be likely to need.
With an en-suite head served with hot/cold shower this cabin combines perfectly the need for space and privacy. Each cabin has a 230v outlet and a12v supply/charging socket.
The recesses saloon is light and spacious and provides a feeling of immense space. There is huge storage space under the cabin sole, perfect for keeping the wine cool in tropical climates. A saloon table capable of seating the crew in comfort is located to starboard and surrounded by soft furnishings in cream leather. A bench seat on the port side provided the perfect location to sit and chill under way or to have a short nap after lunch. There are several 230v outlets and a12v supply/charging socket.
At the foot of the companionway steps, the navigation station is located to port and the galley to starboard. The galley boasts twin sinks with hot and cold running water, a fridge and freezer and a large 4 burner grill and over cooker. A cooker hood helps void galley aromas to the exterior deck. Aspiring chefs will delight in the ergonomic styling and facilities.
Abaft the galley and navigation station are two double cabins, one to starboard, the guest cabin located to port with shared access to the second head with shower area.
Both aft cabins have ample storage areas for guests. Each cabin has a 230v outlet and a12v supply/charging socket.
All guest accommodation areas are served by two Webasto hot air central heating systems to maintain internal temperatures at a comfortable level, day or night. | 2019-04-21T04:20:01 | http://broadswordcharters.co.uk/charter-yacht-troon-scotland.php |
