House additions are one of our specialties at Inspire Homes, but we do more than merely raise roofs and expand foundations. With each project, our goal is to uncover problem areas or ineffective spaces in our clients' homes and find ways to enhance the longevity, functionality and overall aesthetic. A recent Don Mills project in North York is a great example. Originally built in the 1960s, this family home was showings its age – most of the finishes were original, including some of the bathrooms, and the rooms were small and dark. The house's overall energy efficiency was lacking too with little insulation in the walls. Original 1960s North York house before renovation. With plans to call this their forever home, our clients desired a solution that would ensure the durability and functionality of the house for now and into the future. Aging in place is becoming more popular with Canadians and we're especially noticing this trend with the families we work with. The homeowners also wanted to bridge an existing gap between the house and separate garage and re-think the floor area for better usability and flow. Rather than demolish a perfectly good structure, our solution was to build a 500 sq. ft. two-storey addition between the house and garage. Fusing these two elements together provides better functionality for the family, plus it allowed us to expand the floor space inside the home. All of the interior walls and finishes were removed and the staircase was relocated to a new area, thus opening up the first and second storeys to accommodate a more useful layout. Spray foam now insulates the walls on all three levels for better efficiency and comfort year-round. New windows and doors were also included in the project scope with a low-maintenance steel roof and a combination of stone and stucco on the exterior facade. Stone and stucco facade, steel roof and energy efficient windows. At the heart of the main floor is a new larger kitchen with contemporary finishes and a high-end design. Cabinets line the walls offering incredible storage, while the centre of the kitchen is anchored by a spacious island with a sink, granite counters and seating. The kitchen's tile floors carry into the adjacent pantry with a wet bar, plus we were able to add a mudroom with garage entry and custom cabinets, main floor laundry and a powder room – all of which previously did not exist. With the staircase relocated, the main floor also opened up to accommodate a larger living room and dining room. Contemporary kitchen in North York house addition. Certain design elements were incorporated into the renovation to fulfil the homeowners' desires to age in place, including the staircase, which is wider with a lower stair tread rise to make them easier to climb. Door openings within the home were also widened to accommodate better maneuverability, while lever handles make it easier to open doors for those with arthritis or grip issues. The glass railings on the staircase and landing add a contemporary look to the home, but are purposeful by keeping the staircase bright and open feeling. Upstairs, a new floor plan boasts four bedrooms and two bathrooms – one of which was remodelled with a glass shower and curbless entry for a universal design. Towel warmers add a touch of luxury to the spaces, along with modern vanities, quartz countertops and built-in storage. We could go on and on about this 2,700 sq. ft. whole home renovation and addition – it certainly stands out as one of our favourites. To see more before and afters, hop on over to our Home Addition Project Gallery on our website, where we share this North York property, as well as other completed projects across the GTA.

West Bengal: TMC refutes allegations of BJP youth wing leader's murder Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], October 18 (ANI): Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Monday refuted the allegations of the alleged killing of a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) youth wing leader in Uttar Dinajpur. BJP has alleged that Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) vice president of Uttar Dinajpur Mithun Ghosh was gunned down by TMC assailants at Itahar. Refuting the allegations, TMC state general secretary and party spokesperson Kunal Ghosh said, "Why will TMC murder him (BJYM VP Mithun Ghosh)? We do not know what happened exactly but the police are investigating the matter. Suvendu Adhikari's allegation is baseless. BJP has inner clashes among themselves. Levelling allegations on TMC for the killing, BJP is trying to avoid their own internal issues."Ghosh's remarks came against the backdrop of West Bengal leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari's allegation on TMC over the alleged killing of its BJP leader Mithun Ghosh. "Uttar Dinajpur Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) VP Mithun Ghosh has been shot dead by assailants at Itahar. This is TMC's handiwork written all over it. The bloodthirsty antisocial hound dogs who executed their master's orders would be taken to task when the tide turns. We won't forget Mithun Ghosh," tweeted Adhikari. (ANI)

[Solved] Setting a minimum number of answers for a continuous sum question. I'm have a continuous sum question with six fields. The text of the question encourages people to type "0" if the field doesn't apply to them. Setting the question to answer requires means a respondent can place an answer in one field and the question is considered answered and they can move onto the next page. Is there a way to force respondents to place an answer in each field? From my knowledge there is not a way to require all fields in a continuous sum question. There might be a way to script around that if you have a developer handy though.

Suzanne Vernon, PhD and Kim McCleary wrote the article that includes an overview of CFS and a summary of past and current research. Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), also known as chronic fatigue and immune dysfunction syndrome (CFIDS), is a debilitating illness with no known cause, diagnostic test, or universally effective treatment, in spite of 25 years of research and more than 5,000 studies in the peer-reviewed literature. This article is an overview of the signs and symptoms of CFS, solid research findings, and new directions being pursued by scientists in the United States and abroad. Just read the article. I have two issues: 1) I think we need to get away from the repeated characterization of CFS as a difficult diagnosis. Jason's CAA webinar today gave a clear picture of the sensitivity and specificity of the Canadian Consensus Dx criteria; AND 2) the first point combined with the statement that "CFS is not a form of depression, and many patients with CFS have no diagnosable psychiatric disorder." troubles me. What is read into the phrase "many patients with CFS have no diagnosable psychiatric disorder"? Maybe only 85% have diagnosable psychiatric disorders? I know it wasn't intended this way but it feels a bit like damning with faint praise. Why not - psychiatric disorders do not occur in the CFS population at any higher rate than the general public. Or better yet, why not simply leave it at "CFS is not a form of depression." I know this was only one sentence in an otherwise decent article but WHY must our own advocacy people go "there?" I seriously doubt that we could find a single person in this forum that would have let that sentence stand. Jennie, if you're reading this I am officially volunteering to proof read anything and everything you send my way. ETA: I realize that this appears to come from a list compiled by Komaroff but it still stands out and I just wonder why it was needed. It was a mistake for Komaroff to go there. I would trust CBS as our official proofreader. Islandfinn-- Thanks for posting. CBS--Agreed! I find myself in the curious position of posting a less critical review than CBS. Maybe there is some hope for me yet, Cort. This strikes me as a significant improvement over the overview articles that have come out of CAA in the past. In fact, the two major suggestions I have for improvement aren't to do with finding fault with anything Ms. McCleary or Dr. Vernon wrote about ME. psychiatric illness than the general public. Maybe they'll change that. glad to see that this may be researched further and verified and validated. physiology and function, and should bring "light" to that subject at last. I think the truth is that CFS patients experience no higher incidence of psychiatric disorders, including depression, than patients suffering with other chronic disabling diseases, such as multiple sclerosis. We have been saying that CFS patients have higher incidence of suicide. It has been noted that the debilitating losses and frustrations, including poor medical care, can lead to depression in CFs patients. So these claims need to jive. They dont mention any characteristic neuroimmune endocrine symptoms at all. I am very dissapointed with that .perhaps they do hold the view that ME and CFS are seperate illnesses as the CME publication suggests? What do you think of the "Major Research Findings" section written by Komaroff? Also, does anyone know how to access this article in a form that is not PDF?

'He's a god of the game' - Gatland to bow out against his native New Zealand Tomorrow's World Cup bronze final will see several people bidding farewell. By Murray Kinsella Thursday 31 Oct 2019, 11:30 AM https://the42.ie/4873188 IN SEVERAL WAYS, it's fitting that Warren Gatland's last game as Wales head coach comes against his native New Zealand. Gatland has beaten every other nation during his 12-year tenure but his record against the Kiwis reads 'Played 11, Lost 11′. Very few people are expecting that losing run to change in tomorrow's World Cup bronze final [KO 9am Irish time, eir Sport/RTÉ], but everyone expects to see the Welsh at least delivering a stirring effort in the 56-year-old's final game in charge. Warren Gatland bows out as Wales boss tomorrow. Source: Adam Davy While some have been frustrated at Gatland's words in the media over the years, it's difficult to argue against the idea that he has been a resounding success as Wales boss. Three Grand Slams and two World Cup semi-finals have been the highlight achievements and those who have worked alongside him believe he has changed Welsh rugby. "I've said it before, he's an incredible man not just due to his rugby intelligence and knowledge but he's also an unbelievable person," said Wales kicking coach Neil Jenkins in Tokyo today. "I'd like to think he's left a fantastic legacy through the results and successes he's had since 2008. There has been the development of a lot of good players coming through and there are a lot of youngsters in the squad at this moment in time. "Warren's knowledge and what he's done for our game is immense. A 'thank you' is not enough as far as I'm concerned. For me, he is a god of the game. I've been very, very lucky to be involved with him since he started in 2008. "He's taken the boys to new levels, there's no doubting that. We think we can beat anyone on any given day, anywhere in the world. "Being Welsh, that's not something that is easily achieved because we're not really like that back at home. We tend to prefer to go under the radar a little bit and we're a bit shy in that sense. "He's certainly taken that out of the boys and there's a belief that no matter where you are, no matter who you're playing against, you have the ability to win. For me, he's an incredible rugby man and an incredible rugby person." Forwards coach Robin McBryde is moving on to Leinster. Source: PA Archive/PA Images While the bronze final is a game that no one really wants to be involved in, beating the All Blacks would be a huge final achievement for Gatland – whose forwards coach, Robin McBryde, is also moving on to join Leinster. While Steve Hansen has made seven changes to his All Blacks team, that has simply added to the experience levels, particularly in the backline. Meanwhile, Gatland has made nine alterations to his starting XV, well aware of the fact that Welsh rugby already needs to begin to look to the future. "We wanted to recognise some of the guys who are playing their last World Cup game, but I've always been conscious of what is being left behind and there are some young players that, particularly for the future, need an opportunity to play against the All Blacks in a big game at the World Cup," said Gatland. "We felt it was important we didn't just think about ourselves and think insular. It was looking at the bigger picture, which is what is good for Welsh rugby. "Some of that is about giving players an opportunity to perform on the big stage – the players we see for the future like Tomos Williams, Owen Watkin, Owen Lane, and Hallam Amos. There is Adam Beard and Dillon Lewis too. "It's a big opportunity for them to go and stake a claim and hopefully Welsh rugby will benefit from the experience they get on Friday." Gatland will move home to New Zealand after the World Cup, taking up a new role as head coach of the Chiefs in Super Rugby before a break to lead the 2021 Lions tour of South Africa. This bronze final will be an evening of goodbyes with English referee Wayne Barnes also set to adjudicate his last Test. Kieran Read will play his final Test for the All Blacks. Source: Mark Baker Gatland's counterpart, Hansen, is bidding farewell to the All Blacks tomorrow in Tokyo, as are captain Kieran Read, centres Sonny Bill Williams and Ryan Crotty, and right wing Ben Smith. "Steve's an awesome coach, an awesome man as well," said All Blacks scrum-half Aaron Smith. "I've been very blessed to spend eight or nine years with him and I've enjoyed every moment. "His ability to tell you something but get you to kind of figure it out is something I really enjoy. "What I love the most is his belief in you. He's tough on you early in the week but come captain's run and game day, then he just walks around the changing room and makes you feel like a million bucks, just makes you really want to go out there and play for him. "It gets me all sad thinking this weekend's my last time (alongside Hansen) but you never know, there could be some other games in the future where we can connect again." 15. Beauden Barrett 14.

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C – Chris Stephenson's tap-in basket with 1.6 seconds left gave UNC Asheville a thrilling 58-56 Big South Conference win over Gardner-Webb Friday night before a stunned crowd of 2,200 at Porter Arena. The Bulldogs (1-6, 1-0) won their Big South Conference opener for the fifth straight year and are 13-1 in league-opening games under head coach Eddie Biedenbach. Sean Smith led Asheville with a game-high 18 points. Stephenson added 13 points, all in the second half. The Runnin' Bulldogs (3-3, 0-1 BSC) were led by Aaron Silver's 14 points and all of those came in the second half. C.J. Hailey contributed 11 points. The Bulldogs led 55-50 with 1:03 left but Gardner-Webb forced two turnovers and got a bucket and two free throws from Silver to cut the lead to 55-54. Stephenson was fouled with 20 seconds left. He made the first free throw to pad the lead to 56-54 but missed the second. Hailey hit a 10-footer in the lane to knot the score at 56-56 with 10 seconds remaining. Out of timeouts, Asheville quickly brought the ball down court. Matt Dickey fired a 15-footer that missed with three seconds left but Stephenson was there to tip the ball back in to give Asheville the winning points. "I'm so proud of our guys to hang in there on the road and find a way to win," said Biedenbach. "It wasn't pretty, and we had way too many turnovers to allow them to get back into the game. But when we struggled to score in the second half, we battled on defense to keep us in the game. Junior forward John Williams had a solid game for the Bulldogs with nine points, six rebounds, three blocked shots and four steals. D.J. Cunningham added eight points. Asheville struggled from the field on the night, too. The Bulldogs shot just 38 percent (20-of-52) from the field and made 19 turnovers. Asheville went eight minutes in the second half without scoring. Smith knocked down three 3-pointers in the first half as the Bulldogs went on a late surge to take a 33-29 halftime lead. Asheville got a lay-up from Stephenson and a trey from Smith to quickly build the lead to 38-29 early in the second half. Silver entered the game for Gardner-Webb and immediately knocked down two treys. Asheville then went ice cold from the field and allowed the Runnin' Bulldogs to eventually take the lead at 45-42 on two free throws from Silver at the 9:56 mark. Trailing 49-48 with four minutes left, the Bulldogs went on a 7-1 run to grab a 55-50 lead with 1:10 left as Smith scored on a lay-up. UNC Asheville plays next on Sunday, Dec. 13 at home against Montreat starting at 4:30 p.m. The Bulldogs have the next week off due to exams.

The sconces have been created with glass and brass giving an elegant and classic touch, you can insert four bulbs, two of which are central and two external. Angelo Gaetano Sciolari is an Italian designer and entrepreneur. He has made a considerable contribution to the success of Italian design around the world and in particular in the United States. Sciolari was an outstanding businessman, but also a creative designer. During his entire career, he designed incredible and beautiful lights such as the 'Mod A5011' hanging lamp (circa 1950), the '4079' floor lamp (1965), and the Cubic chandelier (the 1970s). Angelo Gaetano Sciolari was born in 1927 in Italy. After he graduated in architecture, the young man came back to his first passion: cinema and in particular filmmaking. However, after his father's death in 1949, Sciolari had to manage the familial company of light production. In a few years, the designer transformed it into an international enterprise! The Sciolari manufacturer became the first Italian lights seller in the United States (imported by America by Lightolier & Progress Lighting)! People of America saw Sciolari's products on the famous Dall TV show! Gaetano was a brilliant businessman, but he was also a prolific and talented designer. He worked for the great names of design such as Stilnovo, Boulanger, and Stilkronen.

Latest Volumes CODEN : IAJPBB Tools for Author News Updates Latest Volumes: COSMOS IMPACT FACTOR (2018)- 4.153, GLOBAL IMPACT FACTOR(2014) - 0.384, (2015) - 0.437, Indo American Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, ResearcherID - CLICK HERE Scientific Journal Impact Factor (SJIF-2020) - CLICK HERE INCIDENCE OF DEFICIENCY OF VITAMIN K IN NEONATES PRESENTING TO THE NEONATAL UNIT WITH ABNORMAL BLEEDING Dr Saadullah Khan, Dr Waseem Akbar, Dr Muhammad Kamran Introduction: The term vitamin k comes from the German language Koagulations - vitamin. Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract in the presence of bile salts. Vitamin K is needed for the synthesis of coagulation factors II, VII, IX, X by the liver2. Due to the short half-life of these factors and the small amounts of vitamin K stored in the body, insufficient vitamin K intake may result in its deficiency in a short time. In the past, all neonatal bleeding disorders were grouped together under the diagnosis of neonatal hemorrhagic disease (HDN). Aim: To determine the prevalence of vitamin K deficiency in newborns presenting with abnormal bleeding to the neonatal unit. Methods: A total of 375 infants with bleeding were excluded from the study, while those with an obvious cause of a bleeding disorder, eg, with anticoagulation therapy, were excluded from the study. It was a cross-sectional study conducted at the Department of Hematology and Transfusion Medicine of the Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar for one-year duration from March 2019 to March 2020. Results: In an age distribution study, 45 (12%) were found to be 1-24 hours old, 185 (49.3%) were 2-7 days old and 145 (38.6%) were found. at 1-2 weeks of age, 237 (63.2%) are male and 36.8% are female. Discussed by geographical area (urban and rural). Out of a total of 375 cases, 168 (44.8%) were from cities, and 207 (55.2%) from rural areas. Incidence of abnormal clotting profiles in cases, 369 (98.4%) patients had an abnormal clotting profile, and 6 (0.01%) had a normal clotting profile. Incidence of platelet abnormalities in newborns reporting bleeding 362 (96.5%) had normal platelet counts and 13 (0.03%) had abnormal platelet counts. 352 (93.8%) had vitamin K deficiency bleeding and 23 (0.06%) had a bleeding disorder other than vitamin K deficiency bleeding. Conclusion: Vitamin K deficiency bleeding is a very important cause of bleeding in the first month of life. It is more common in men and in the countryside. Vitamin K deficiency bleeding is an avoidable cause of bleeding, therefore vitamin K prophylaxis should be mandatory after birth in all newborns. Keywords: Prevalence, vitamin K deficiency bleeding.

#Cognizant#AI#data#ROI Cognizant: best practices for turning data into ROI with AI Cognizant found, in its global study, that two-thirds of senior executives─regardless of industry or region─see AI as highly important for future success Oliver Freeman In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world has experienced a new kind of "normal". Our day to day life has become synonymous with social unrest, economic upheaval, and an overwhelming level of uncertainty. It's been chaotic, to say the least. Though, it has to be said that every cloud has a silver lining and, amid that chaos, there has been a lot of personal and professional development. Individuals and organisations alike have been desperately searching for answers, to better prepare themselves for the world that we will emerge into post-COVID-19; nobody knows what it will look like yet, but we've got a fairly good idea that it'll be completely different to the one that we're leaving behind. A new era is coming, and it will be an era that artificial intelligence (AI) truly comes into its own. Experts like Cognizant believe that 2020 will, in fact, be remembered as the tipping point for AI. Cognizant's research is groundbreaking. It was conducted during the outbreak of coronavirus, and it reveals that executives are turning en masse to AI to make better, more intelligent decisions─especially when much of the information and decision models needed are fast-changing or unknown. In the study, Cognizant focused on 1,200 companies, in conjunction with ESI ThoughtLab, and found that "almost two-thirds of senior executives─regardless of industry or region─see AI as highly important to the future of their businesses." Man industry-leaders and C-Suite executives came to realise, at the very start of the pandemic, that their businesses didn't have access to the data that they needed to make "intelligent decisions in the face of chaos." Unsurprising, really, given that the data they previously relied on reflected a "normal" world as we once knew it. Now we have a new normal, however. Accurate information is one of the most important aspects of modern business analytics, so it's vital that companies get hold of the most recent, accurate, and relevant data, so that they can successfully interpret consumer demands and produce products and services to suit their needs. Unfortunately, what worked before won't anymore, and forecast models which were previously "good enough" are now outdated and borderline useless. "It's no wonder, then, that businesses have little interest in returning to the old ways of working," said the report. "Over the next three years, twice as many businesses expect to be in the advanced stages of AI maturity vs today, and annual spending increases will nearly double from 4.6% to 8.3%." Cognizant's findings show that AI is clearly going to offer a great ROI, but it should be noted that it isn't an overnight transformation or a simple click of the fingers. Right now, "more than half of businesses are seeing positive returns on their AI investments, the average ROI is just 1.3%." On top of this, it's worth noting that, with higher upfront costs in data modernisation, adopting tech and developing people, it could take organisations an average of 17 months to see a positive return on their initial investment.

Horror Cannibal (Nella terra dei cannibali) est un film italien réalisé par Bruno Mattei, sorti en 2003. Synopsis Des explorateurs en expédition s'aventurent trop loin dans la forêt amazonienne et tombent entre les mains d'une tribu isolée de cannibales qui s'empare d'eux. Le groupe comprend également la fille d'un sénateur américain ; elle réussit à contacter son père qui envoie dans la jungle un groupe de soldats expérimentés pour tenter de sauver les malheureux. Mais dans l'enfer de la jungle ce sont maintenant les soldats qui sont en danger : leurs armes en effet se révèlent insuffisantes pour faire face aux cannibales. L'horreur la plus atroce a commencé pour affronter ces indigènes anthropophages. Résumé Sarah, la fille du sénateur Armstrong, a disparu dans la jungle amazonienne. Avec l'accord du gouvernement brésilien, un commando sous les ordres du lieutenant Wilson se dirige vers les lieux. L'administration militaire représentée par le major Oliveira leur attache Romero, un indien Isayi, et, en outre, le fils du chaman d'une des tribus locales qui est prisonnier. Au départ, tout va bien, les hommes de Wilson ne perdent qu'un soldat, Smith, ils trouvent des traces de l'expédition, parfois des cadavres à demi décomposés. Plusieurs fois ils remarquent que les membres des différentes tribus s'utilisent les uns les autres comme nourriture. Ayant rendu son fils au chaman, ils ont la possibilité de pénétrer dans les profondeurs de la jungle où vit la tribu mystérieuse du lac Pescia que le commando aide dans une bataille contre une autre tribu, si bien que les aborigènes invitent les militaires dans leur village. Là, les gens de Wilson doivent d'abord se déshabiller complètement puis gouter à la chair humaine, après quoi les Indiens leur permettent de participer à leurs rituels. À ce moment on constate que Sarah se trouve dans la tribu où elle est considérée comme l'incarnation de la divinité locale de l'amour. Comprenant qu'elle n'a pas envie de partir avec eux, les soldats de Wilson commencent par mettre le feu au village endormi, puis ils enlèvent Sarah et essaient de s'enfuir avec elle. Cela met un terme à leur amitié avec les Indiens et les membres du commando sont maintenant pourchassés par les cannibales auxquels l'un après l'autre ils servent de plat de résistance. Malheureusement l'autorité militaire refuse d'envoyer un hélicoptère, en disant que le groupe est trop loin du point de rendez-vous prévu. Le fait que Sarah se soit rendu compte de la situation n'améliore pas tout de même la situation. Wilson tombe dans un piège et est tué. Le caporal Vasquez, blessé, doit être abandonné dans la forêt, enfin Sarah accueille les Indiens avec des grenades. Lorsque l'hélicoptère arrive, Romero détourne sur lui l'attention des Indiens, ce qui permet à Sarah de s'envoler.

Bruno Mattei profita de ses décors philippins et des acteurs Claudio Morales et Cindy Jelic Matic pour réaliser Horror Cannibal 2 dans la foulée. Les noms des personnages sont des références au genre horrifique : Romero pour George A. Romero, célèbre réalisateur de films de zombies, Cameron pour James Cameron, réalisateur de Terminator (1984) ou d'Aliens le retour (1986), dont l'une des actrices, Jenette Goldstein, interprétait le soldat mexicain Vasquez. Quant à Kruger, il s'agit bien évidemment d'une référence au personnage Freddy Krueger des Griffes de la nuit (1984). À noter qu'Horror Cannibal est un des titres alternatifs de sortie en VHS du Dernier Monde cannibale de Ruggero Deodato. On retrouve une grande similitude dans les dialogues et dans certaines scènes de Cannibal Holocaust comme la scène où le guide reconnaît le guide d'une précédente expédition grâce à ses dents, la scène où de la cocaine est donnée à l'otage amérindien, ou encore le rituel fait aux femmes adultères.

Q: Area of a special isosceles spherical triangle I was asked to calculate the area of the following isosceles triangle. Let $\triangle ABC$ be an isosceles spherical triangle with $d(A,C)=d(B,C)$. Then $C$ lies on the perpendicular bisector of $AB$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $AB$. Suppose $d(A,M)=d(-M,C)$. Calculate the area of $\triangle ABC$. I already made a sketch and observed that $d(A,M)=d(-M,C)=\pi-d(M,C)$. Let $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ denote the interior angles corresponding to $A$, $B$, $C$ respectively. If I assume without loss of generality that, because $C$ lies on the perpendicular bisector of $AB$, the angle $\gamma$ is divided into two equal angles $\gamma_1$ and $\gamma_2$ belonging to the right triangles $\triangle AMC$ and $\triangle BMC$. Since $$\operatorname{area}(\triangle ABC) = 2 \cdot \operatorname{area}(\triangle AMC) = 2 \cdot \operatorname{area}(\triangle BMC)$$ I only need to calculate $\operatorname{area}(\triangle AMC)$. Since $\operatorname{area}(\triangle AMC)=\alpha + \gamma_1+ \frac{\pi}{2}-\pi$, I need $\alpha$ and $\gamma_1$. I first tried to calculate $\gamma_1$ using the spherical Law of Cosines, and I got this: $$\cos\gamma_1=\cos\alpha \cdot \cos\frac{\pi}{2} - \sin\alpha \cdot \sin\frac{\pi}{2} \cdot \cos d(A,M)=-\sin\alpha \cdot \cos\left(\pi-d(M,C)\right) \tag{1}$$ From the spherical Law of Sines, I get: $$\sin\alpha= \frac{\sin d(M,C)}{\sin d(A,C)} \tag{2}$$ But now I do not see how to proceed. I would like to calculate the right-hand sides of $(1)$ and $(2)$, but this does not seem possible with the data I have. Or is this meant to be solved another way? I am not allowed to use Napier's rule since it was not proven in the lecture. A: A more geometric approach starts with extending the line segments $MC$ and $MA$ to their meeting point $-M$. This creates a bi-angle between $M$ and $-M$ with area $\pi.\, AC$ divides this bi-angle into two congruent triangles because $d(A,M) = d(C,-M)$, so $\bigtriangleup$$AMC$ has area $\frac\pi2$ and $\bigtriangleup$$ABC$ has area $\pi$.

Установка для поверки расходомеров представляет собой достаточно сложное техническое устройство, обеспечивающее воспроизведение потока жидкости с расходом от 10 — 20 до 600000 литров в час (0,01 — 600 м³/ч) и измерение объема (массы) эталонными расходомерами или весовым устройством с необходимой для поверки точностью. Установка относится к средствам измерения, для которых установлена своя система сертификации (утверждение типа и внесение в Государственный реестр) и подтверждение пригодности для использования по назначению. Для измерения различных физических величин в установке используется до 40 средств измерений (измерение частоты, времени, температуры, массы, давления, тока, напряжения). В установке используются различные технические средства, позволяющие задавать скорость потока (путём установки частоты на частотном преобразователе насоса), формировать гидравлическую измерительную схему (путём закрытия или открытия дисковых затворов с помощью пневмоприводов и/или электроприводов). Управление установкой обеспечивается через компьютер. Поверочная установка обеспечивает получение достоверных и точных результатов измерений, вне зависимости от случайных факторов, и измеряет не только расход жидкости, но и измерение массы, измерение температуры, измерение давления, измерение времени и частоты следования импульсов и измерение напряжения и тока. По каждому виду измерения, начиная с измерения расхода, возникают традиционные метрологические вопросы: что, как и чем измерять, ответы на которые пытается найти самостоятельно каждый разработчик. При нормировании метрологических характеристик установок предварительно рассчитываются их составляющие. По одним составляющим имеются методики расчетов, например, по весовым устройствам, средствам измерения температуры, по другим эти методики необходимо разрабатывать самостоятельно и учитывать те или иные факторы, которые могут повлиять на результаты измерений. Например, учитывать или не учитывать температуру жидкости при определении объема по известной массе, измеренной в реальных условиях (температуре, давлении окружающего воздуха), а если учитывать, то каким образом. В ГОСТ 8.156 эта зависимость приведена в виде таблицы, из которой видно, что без измерения температуры жидкости, особенно при повышенной температуре, дополнительная погрешность может составлять 0,4 %. Поэтому с учетом многообразия видов измерений и используемых средств измерений автоматизированная поверочная установка должна рассматриваться как измерительная система, в которой должны выполняться требования ГОСТ Р 8.596. Указанный стандарт допускает использование в составе установки любых средств измерений при условии, что в технической документации нормированы метрологические характеристики каналов в целом и обеспечена их поверка необходимыми методами и средствами. Только в этом случае можно обеспечить разработку и поставку технически совершенного и метрологически обеспеченного измерительного оборудования, а в конечном итоге — обеспечить достоверность и требуемую точность измерений, контроля и испытаний в области расходометрии.

Major carrier Verizon is currently hard at work replacing its entire legacy network stack with disaggregated equipment driven by software-defined networking, external compute and virtualization technologies. The carrier is teaming up with networking giants and direct competitors Cisco and Juniper Networks in order to accomplish this rollout, which it hopes to have finished some time in 2019. Rolling the entire Verizon network stack over to a more centralized approach and taking advantage of modern technology's ability to provide virtualized network services and remote number crunching will not only make the network more agile for future upgrades, but will increase stability and throughput for customers. Verizon is pushing this new technological approach to all fronts of its business, from internal operations all the way to consumer-facing cellular and enterprise fiber optic networks. This means that all sectors will see benefits, and of course growing pains. While network virtualization and software-defined networking are robust and mostly mature technologies at this point, Verizon is working to replace its current setup on an in-place basis, which means that if there are any glitches in the initial deployment, as there so often are when changing standards entirely, customers will have to deal with them until Verizon, Cisco and Juniper Networks can get things straightened out. It is, of course, entirely possible that Verizon will pull this rollout off flawlessly and customers won't be able to tell much of a difference beyond waking up one morning to find that all of their Verizon-connected devices run a bit faster and have a more stable connection. While this rollout does stand to provide some real and tangible benefits from the jump, it is in the long term that this decision will truly pay off. By essentially virtualizing its network functions, Verizon is opening the door to a near future where the company can deploy 5G equipment and architecture at its leisure, then simply flip a switch, quite literally, to enable 5G connections for compatible devices in deployed markets. This means that the company can continue to leverage advances in 4G LTE and 4.9G technology to remain competitive with other carriers while it works on its full 5G buildout, and once that buildout is complete, make a near-painless transition.

Finding helpers November 9, 2018 /0 Comments/in Campus Life, Carnegie Mellon, Diversity & Inclusion, Pittsburgh /by Madeline Kim | Professional Writing and Undergraduate Business 2021 Like many people who grew up in the States, I grew up watching Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. Although I do not have clear memories of specific episodes, I remember the calmness and serenity of his voice and his neighborhood. This past August, I learned that the WQED station near my residence was where my childhood show was made. Fast-forward to Oct. 27: the Tree of Life shooting that killed 11 in Mister Rogers' own neighborhood. Mister Rogers' quote about looking for helpers circulated. "My mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.' To this day, especially in times of disaster, I remember my mother's words, and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers — so many caring people in this world." At first, I found comfort in those words. However, the comfort quickly dissipated. I felt helpless. Despite doing all I felt like I could at the moment — reaching out and checking on loved ones, sharing news articles, planning my ballot for the upcoming midterm election, attending the vigil on CMU's campus on Monday, photographing the fence being painted in solidarity — it felt as though what I was doing wasn't enough. Of course, nothing can turn back the hands of time and undo the damage done. However, I felt a strange sense of empowerment by connecting with others at Carnegie Mellon. My family in The Tartan and I all opened up and had honest conversations about the event and how we want to move forward. I did research and listened to the concerns of my friends — especially my Jewish friends and friends in Squirrel Hill — and tried to become a better ally. Carnegie Mellon is beyond just a university; it is a diverse community and a home that welcomes the most brilliant minds from various walks of life. This came to show me that by being a student at this university, I am learning to become a helper. As a top university, Carnegie Mellon prepares its students to become the innovators and leaders of tomorrow. Carnegie Mellon gives me the resources to become anything my imagination lets me be; it is up to me to decide how to use my gifts, skills, and tools developed in my four years here to contribute to the world and be the best version of myself I can be. Every week in my weekly planner, I like to doodle an inspirational or uplifting quote or reminder. Sometimes, it's a simple reminder for me to keep an open mind. Other times, it's a note for myself to remind me to keep going. For this week, it's a reminder for me to "be a helper."

Dr. Curtis Carroll Wins Charlotte Post Foundation's Educator Of The Year Honor Published Sunday, June 28, 2020 9:51 am by Ellison Clary A 36-year veteran of public schools who champions African-American students is the Charlotte Post Foundation's Educator of the Year. Honoree Dr. Curtis Carroll retired as principal of Vance High School in February, ending 28 years with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. He will be celebrated at the Foundation's annual banquet on October 10 at the Hilton center city. "Dr. Carroll's work and dedication at CMS has helped draw young people into the future with innovative techniques and heartfelt inspiration," said Gerald Johnson, publisher of The Charlotte Post and president of The Charlotte Post Foundation. "His exemplary performance clearly defines the standard for this award." Schools exist to benefit students, Carroll said. "I think kids can do so much more than we ever anticipate." He advocates rigorous academics from nurturing teachers. "To see him in action, it's a beautiful sight," said Dr. Daisy Walker, who spent a half century with CMS and who was the Foundation's Educator of the Year for 2017. "The kids love him. They know he cares. They respond to him." Walker has known Carroll since 1993 when the Flint, MI, native arrived at CMS from teaching in Evanston, IL. Previously, he'd worked in his hometown school district. Dr. Marion Yates, retired principal of South Mecklenburg High who is a vice president with Communities In Schools, also forged a friendship with Carroll early on. "When you meet Curtis, you know he's genuine," Yates said. She admires his compassion. "He understands students – and parents." Carroll acknowledged that Walker and Yates were pivotal in his career. After serving as assistant principal at West Mecklenburg High and McClintock Middle, Carroll sought the principal slot at McClintock and asked Walker and Yates for advice. They put him through an intensive five-hour training session. "They took a young man who was extremely rough around the edges and prepared me," Carroll remembered. "There was no question that could have been posed that I wasn't ready for." He got the principalship and often has passed on a lesson learned. "I tell young educators, there's someone who knows more than you who can help you," Carroll said. A grateful recipient of Carroll's advice is CMS Superintendent Earnest Winston. "Dr. Carroll has been a mentor, a colleague, a friend and a confidante to me," said Winston. "I still intend to reach out to him and seek his advice." Winston praised Carroll's strong belief in student achievement. "He was born to be an educator," Winston said. Carroll has "not just challenged students but cajoled them into achieving more than they ever thought they would," he added. "I don't think anybody is as good as I am at getting minority students into post-secondary schools," Carroll said. "If a child comes to my school and does what he or she is supposed to do, somebody will give them some money for college." He points to Warren Chancellor, a student leader when Carroll was principal at Harding University High. Chancellor excelled academically but struggled on tests. Morehouse College accepted Chancellor but didn't allocate him much financial aid. Carroll called a Morehouse dean and asked, "Just spend 20 minutes with Warren." After meeting Chancellor, the dean phoned Carroll to say the incoming freshman would get $64,000 in scholarship help. Chancellor earned a degree in Mathematics. He's now managing director of National Operations for Leadership Programs at Relay, a non-profit institute of higher learning. Carroll left briefly to work in Florida's Duval County system but returned to CMS to be area superintendent for 11 low-performing schools in the Achievement Zone. Working with the Parthenon Group, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Harvard University, Carroll helped produce a significant rise in state test proficiency rates at West Charlotte High, West Mecklenburg High and Wilson Middle. But as Walker observed, Carroll "wants to be with students," and he moved on in 2010 to Phillip O. Berry Academy of Technology as principal. Four years later, he became superintendent of West Learning Community. But in 2018, he made one more move. "We were having difficulty finding a principal for Vance High," Carroll said, "and I volunteered to go." Shortly, he pulled off another student-centered feat. The Vance Cougars won the 2019 state 4AA football title, but the athletic budget couldn't fund championship rings. With a donation from Yates, Carroll took action. "I called in favors," he said. "I did everything necessary." He found $35,000 for rings. "The young men had worked hard," he said. "It was imperative they could celebrate." Working with others extended to Carroll's family. He and wife Tonya, a pharmacist, owned a drug store on West Boulevard. They purposely located in an underserved area, with strong community backing from leaders like Vilma Leake and the late Dorothy Waddy. And they had support from daughter Brittany, now a pharmacist, and son Brent. Carroll praised his pastor, Dr. Ricky Woods of First Baptist Church-West, for comfort during and after his wife's battle with cancer, which she lost in 2019. "Everything I've done has been with the team in mind," Carroll said, adding that he likes the CMS team. "I don't think Charlotteans really know what we have here," he said. "This is a good school system." Go back | Show other stories | Send this page to a friend

Soda bread - 3 ways! Tonight the quite brilliant Great British Bake Off will feature quick breads, bread which requires no proving and must be ready to eat within 90 minutes. For us in the nest that means only one thing - soda bread! Soda bread is an incredibly simple and fool proof way to make a tasty loaf, one that can stand on its own but usually works best as an accompaniment to a casserole, or a lovely homemade soup. I will be showing you how to make three different versions of soda bread. The first is the most basic and stress free. Following that I have developed a lovely stout soda bread and finally a dairy free and gluten free soda bread. I have chosen to repeat the instructions for each of the bakes. They are almost identical but the gluten free recipe has some vital differences. Enjoy! Mix all of above, excluding the milk, in bowl, using wooden spoon. Half fill the empty buttermilk carton with milk and add to the flour. Stir, If it is too dry then add another 25ml. If it is too sticky and won't stir, then add another handful of flour. Stir until the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl. Place into a well floured baking tray. Add extra flour to the dough. Pat out into a ball (don't knead) and gently flatten the top until it's approx 10cm high. Keep its round shape! Using a sharp knife (breadnife) cut a 5cm line right across the surface. Cut another line across the surface, making a cross. Place in the oven for 10 mins at temp listed above. After this time, rotate the loaf and bake for 10 mins. Rotate again and bake for 5 more mins. After this time the bread should be a golden colour, remove from oven, turn it upside down and place back in oven to cook the base of the loaf. This takes 5-10 mins. It's cooked when it sounds hollow! Mix all of above in bowl, using wooden spoon. Stir, If it is too dry then add another 5-10g of buttermilk. If it is too sticky and won't stir, then add another handful of flour. Combine the soya yoghurt, the soya milk and the lemon juice (just a few drops) in a bowl. Stir well and leave, uncovered, for 5 mins. Lightly flour a roasting tray. Weigh out the dry ingredients, (the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, salt and the caster sugar) together in another bowl. Pour the liquid into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Stir well, until it forms a sloppy dough. Wet your hands thoroughly and remove the dough from the bowl onto the tray. Shape the dough into a ball. Put more water on your hands if needed – it is important to keep the dough wet. Once shaped, coat the dough in plain flour and slash a cross into the dough. There we go. Three ways to make a loaf within 90 minutes. Get practising after tonight's Great British Bake Off as they're all good enough for Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood to tuck into! This is the Lambert Loaf, named after two of my class members who I met earlier this year, Paula and David Lambert. David told me that the loaf that is most popular with his family is a loaf that he created to suit everyone in one mouthful. So he mixes two doughs together so that those who want white bread are happy whilst those who want brown are satisfied too! It's a very simple yet ingenious idea. Basically, you knead out identical amounts of white and wholemeal dough and prove them separately. When they have passed their first prove, you knock back the white dough into a large rectangle, then place the wholemeal dough in the centre of that dough. The wholemeal dough is then flattened upon the white dough using your fingertips into a smaller rectangle, with a gap of approx 1cm around each edge. Both doughs, having now formed one dough, are now folded into a ball and left to rest for 15 mins, before being shaped for the final prove. This technique creates the amazing crumb within the bread. Thanks to the Lambert family! This might be the best thing I've ever made for my kids! Great for any time of year, mini toad in the hole, small enough for a grown up to pick up and take a bite out of, (if your kids let you!) but also big enough to fill small tummies. The recipe is ripped almost entirely from the brilliant Allegra McEvedy's essential tome, Big Table Busy Kitchen. I've simply halved the quantities. Speaking as someone who has struggled with making yorkshire puddings over the years, the recipe here will never let you down, with or without the addition of sausages! It takes about an hour to make and is very straight forward. It's an excellent way to use up stray sausages, leftover eggs and other larder bits and pieces. One note: you will need ovenproof bowls. If you don't have these, then use a small roasting tray. Ok, the first thing is to whack the oven on. Full blast. Yes. All the way to the top! Whisk together the flour and eggs in a bowl, or a jug. Slowly add the milk. Keep whisking until you have a nice, runny batter. Add the seasoning, then cover and pop in the fridge for at least 30 mins. After approximately 10 mins, find 2 medium sized cereal bowls. (Make sure they are ovenproof). Drizzle 1 tbsp of oil into each bowl, place the bowls on a large roasting tray and pop into the oven for a couple of mins. Chop up the sausages into bite sized chunks. Remove the bowls from the oven and add the sausages to the bowls. Pop back into the oven for 10 mins, to brown the sausages. Remove the batter from the fridge, give it a final brisk whisk. Remove the bowls from the oven and pour the batter over both bowls, making sure the sausages are well covered. Pop the bowls back into the oven as quickly as you can and leave for at least 15 mins before you take a peek! This gives the batter the best chance to rise. After 15 mins, open the oven door a tiny bit. They might need another 5 mins. Move them around if you think they're cooking more on one side of the oven, but try to be as quick as you can. Don't let too much cold air into the oven! Remove and let the bowl cool for a few mins. Depending on the age of the child, or adult, either serve on a tray, or turn out the pudding onto a plate. A block of Bioreal - that's organic yeast! This is a post about that most feared bread making subject - yeast. I always used to use Fast Action Dry Yeast. It's reliable, readily available and reasonable. You simply add the required amount to the flour and mix in. However, it does contain additives that some may find disagreeable. This type of yeast normally comes in green packaging. At classes I always bring along a tub, plus I bring along it's friend, the yellow tub of yeast, also known as Dried Active Yeast. The difference between the two is significant. The yellow tub does not contain as many additives. It is this yeast that requires proving before you can use it. You add the required amount of yeast to a bowl of warm water and leave for ten minutes, or until it starts to bubble/prove, then you add it to the flour. Of course, there are other types of yeast. For the more adventurous you can harvest your own wild yeast, known as a sourdough starter, or a poolish. There are many recipes for how to get a starter going, but all you need is some starong white bread flour, some bottled water and a tub with a lid! This is how it should look just before you use it! Sourdough starter - I can smell it from here! Once again, the bubbles are very important. If it's not bubbling/proving, then it has less chance to rise in the oven. Recently, I have started to use organic yeast. It's called Bioreal and is available from Bakery Bits. http://bakerybits.co.uk/bioreal-reg-organic-fresh-yeast-1654.html Quite simply, it's the best yeast I've used. Using organic yeast is very easy. You multiply the normal amount of yeast by two when using it. You follow the normal rules about not mixing it with salt and you can keep it in your fridge for several weeks. If you're put off by having 1 kg of it, then smaller amounts are also available from Bakery Bits . Just ask my good chum Patrick! It's worth the effort. The taste and smell brings back the bread you used to buy at your local bakery. You know the one! So go forth and buy some yeast!

I recently polled the Nursery's Facebook fans on what they wanted to see in this article, and the most popular topic was gardening for kids. Now, I find myself trying to be the "expert" on the subject, but I have no children of my own. So, instead of trying to pretend like I know what I'm talking about, I conducted a few interviews of my own and consolidated the responses below: My first interviewee was Sarah Barber, the 12-year-old daughter of Connie, one of our office administrators here at Fort Collins Nursery. Sarah says she helps her parents in their garden with tasks such as watering and weeding. One task she particularly enjoys is taking the plants out of their pots and helping get them planted in the ground. She says she gives a fair amount of input into what goes into the garden, too. "I will tell my parents 'We should plant this one' and they usually will say 'OK' unless it's a plant that won't do well in our yard." I asked Sarah what criteria she uses for choosing plants, and for her, it's all about looks. "I like flowers better than vegetables, because they are pretty when they bloom, and they are a lot easier to plant than trees." Sarah has some advice for parents based on one of her childhood memories. "I remember when I was little we had a beautiful flower bed but it was too close to a swing I really like. My parents took the swing down because I kept walking through the flowers to get to the swing. I was pretty upset at them" Verdict? Don't let gardening interfere with fun. Also, in Sarah's opinion, kids will happily help if parents ask, but only if parents understand the difference between asking and telling. Next I interviewed Scott Swartzendruber, Fort Collins Nursery's Nursery Stock Buyer and father of two young ladies, Iris, age 3, and Ruby, age 8. Scott's daughters take gardening pretty seriously, so it was no surprise to learn that he gets in trouble if he forgets to include them in any of his gardening projects. Ruby and Iris help with everything from weeding, watering, pruning, planting and harvesting. They even get an area of the garden where they call all the shots. Scott says that the most important part of the process of keeping his daughters involved is letting them have meaningful input. By letting them choose plants, put them in the ground, and care for them, "they get emotionally tied to everything. They even give names to each individual plant." Ruby and Iris are currently working on "Name Gardens" where they choose plants that bear their own names (Iris likes iris, and Ruby is excited about the Miss Ruby Butterfly Bush). Again, we see that getting input from kids is crucial to their enjoyment in the garden. Kids don't like to be slaves, but they are happy to work hard when they feel invested in the project. Finally, I interviewed several customers who were shopping with young children. Veleria was shopping with her two young grandsons, Blake and Tanner. They help in all aspects of work on their grandmother's ranch, including mowing and weed-eating. Blake says he looks forward to running the ranch when he's old enough. Tanner told me the last gardening project he did was to plant flowers around some of his grandmother's trees as a birthday gift. Brad and his 4-year-old granddaughter Rhya told me about their vegetable garden. Rhya helped choose almost all the vegetables they are growing in their garden this year, but the one she was most excited about was the pumpkin, "A really big pumpkin!" Brad says, "I think it's neat, showing [children] how things grow." Kids who are excited to learn are great in the garden, because that thirst for knowledge keeps them interested in the lifecycle of the plants. After meeting so many people with so many perspectives, I've drawn a few conclusions: Children want input. Don't worry, you're probably still the plant expert, but it's important to give them choices. You may think tomatoes are the most fun plants in the world (I certainly do), but unless your kids can be convinced, they won't be too excited about helping in the veggie garden. If they like flowers, give them a flower garden and make them responsible for providing beautiful bouquets to brighten the home. Along similar lines, ask kindly for their help rather than making gardening a non-negotiable chore. Your children's time in the garden needs to be fun, and it can't take the place of something they value more highly. You might even consider easing them into gardening by setting up a reward system (30 minutes of gardening earns 30 minutes of cartoons?) Make gardening an exploratory learning experience. There are plenty of life lessons that can be learned among the plants, and those lessons can help keep kids motivated. Focus on the accessible aspects – the sights, smells, textures, tastes and sounds of the insects, flowers, fruits and vegetables they encounter. Try explaining plant cell biology, though, and watch their eyes glaze over. Choose easy plants with big impact and excitement. Annuals are colorful and grow fast, and veggies are fun and tasty. However, I'll be impressed if you have a youngster who finds ornamental grasses thrilling or who has the patience to wait for a slow-growing mugo pine. Remember that you're the model for your children. Show them how much you love what you're doing, and they'll catch the wave of enthusiasm. Share stories from your own experiences. Go to the library and find age-appropriate, beautiful books that imaginatively open up the natural world. Invite their friends to participate in your family gardening activities. Although I have no children, I know how powerful childhood gardening memories can be, since many of those memories inform my life today. I remember hearing about how the bees 'kiss' each flower 'good morning'; I have an enduring love and respect for our pollinating friends. I remember having a great time getting dirty while digging in the soil and playing with the earthworms; I've never forgotten that what goes on below the surface is as important as what we see above-ground. I remember splashing around in puddles and 'fishing' in them after rainstorms; I continue to revel in the earth's joy after a good, soaking rain. I remember picking up plant debris after an intense windstorm; I know that life is unpredictable and that none of us is really in control, although we try to be. Working in the soil is a learning experience for gardeners of all ages. Have a great season! Originally Published June 2011 Originally published on May 2nd, 2018. Updated on September 3rd, 2019.

London is the capital and most populous city of England and the United Kingdom. Standing on the River Thames, London has been a major settlement for two millennia. It was founded by the Romans, who named it Londinium. London's ancient core, the City of London, largely retains its 1.12-square-mile (2.9 km2) medieval boundaries and in 2011 had a resident population of 7,375, making it the smallest city in England. Since at least the 19th century, the term London has also referred to the metropolis developed around this core. The bulk of this conurbation forms Greater London, a region of England governed by the Mayor of London and the London Assembly. The conurbation also covers two English counties: the small district of the City of London and the county of Greater London. The latter constitutes the vast majority of London, though historically it was split between Middlesex (a now abolished county), Essex, Surrey, Kent and Hertfordshire. The Palace of Westminster is the meeting place of the House of Commons and the House of Lords, the two houses of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Commonly known as the Houses of Parliament after its occupants, It is also known as the 'heart of British politics'. The Palace lies on the northern bank of the River Thames in the City of Westminster, in central London. Its name, which derives from the neighbouring Westminster Abbey, may refer to either of two structures: the Old Palace, a medieval building complex that was destroyed by fire in 1834, and its replacement, the New Palace that stands today. For ceremonial purposes, the palace retains its original style and status as a royal residence and is the property of the Crown.

THE FINAL LEG OF THEIR CROSS-CONTINENTAL CLUBMAN ROAD TRIP SEES THE MINI GRAND TOUR TEAM RETURN HOME, VIA CYPRUS, GREECE AND MALTA There's a long list in the glove compartment of our MINI Clubman. It's marked "places to go back to", and as of this week there's a new destination at the top - Thessaloniki. Greece's second city is a wonderful fusion of breezy beach vibes and lively café culture, with a hefty helping of history and the arts thrown into the mix too. In fact it's nigh-on impossible to find a box that Thessaloniki doesn't tick. After an excellent day spent here in the ancient Aegean port town, soaking up the vibes and sampling the local restaurants, it's something of a wrench to hit the road once again. From here our route - designed by British adventure travel specialists The Flash Pack - takes us through the alien landscape of Albania. Peppered with mushroom-shaped concrete bunkers from its Communist past, it's still outlandishly beautiful - all mountains, lakes and fields, with horse-drawn carts still a frequent sight on its major roads. From the Albanian port of Durres, we cross the Adriatic for Italy, and one of the best sections of the entire trip: Sicily. Here, the winding coastal roads and graceful ancient towns like Taormina, Catania and Syracuse make for outstanding driving - and the near-permanent sunshine bathes everything in a caramel-like glow. After Sicily and Malta beneath it, we head north to the Italian port of Civitavecchia, boarding the big overnight car ferry for Barcelona. Here, in the Catalan capital, we have what is indisputably the finest meal of the entire trip, at the outstanding Fàbrica Moritz - a restaurant inside the city's oldest brewery, on a leafy street in hip Sant Antoni. Time seems to fly over our final few days, as the Clubman's mileage ticks ever closer to 10,000, and our finishing line in Dublin. We've been to no less than 30 European countries in one calendar month, taking in 14 ferries en route (courtesy of the superb aferry.co.uk). We've driven as far as Cyprus and back again, taking in everywhere from Finland's remote Åland islands in the north to Malta's golden beaches in the south. And the whole way, all 30 days, two things have been consistent. Firstly, the warm welcomes we've received everywhere en route, and secondly the car herself. Our trusty Clubman has not let us down once. Now, back in Britain, it's time to fish that list out of the glove compartment - Thessaloniki, Brno, Turku, Durbuy, Szeged - and all the other destinations we want to go back to. There's no time like the present for planning the next Clubman road trip… OUR FINAL WEEK ON THE ROAD From Tasucu, we crossed to and from Cyprus on the local car ferry, before driving up Turkey's west coast, through Gallipoli and into Greece. Here, we had to tear ourselves away from the outstanding second city, Thessaloniki, before crossing Albania to make our next aferry.co.uk connection - from Durres across the Adriatic to Italy. Next was a straight shot down Sicily's eastern side to Malta, before ferry-hopping via Palermo and Rome to Barcelona. From here our route took us through beautiful Catalan countryside to reach pretty Braganca in northern Portugal. Finally we turned north, through San Sebastian, Bordeaux and La Rochelle to make the 14th and final ferry of our challenge: the Irish Ferries connection from Cherbourg to Rosslare. From here it was a three hour drive to Dublin, and our finishing line!

Q: batch script for loop and if statement not interacting properly For archiving purposes, I have one directory full of files called note_1.txt, note_3.txt, note_4.txt, etc. I am writing a script to find the biggest number N among those files, and rename a new note.txt file to note_N+1.txt. I am using a batch for loop for the first time and can't make it work properly. I tried replacing % by ! but I am not sure I understand how it works. SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION SET "maxfile=1" for /f %%i in ('dir /b note_*.txt') do ( SET archivename=%%~ni SET archivenumber=%archivename:~5% if %archivenumber% GTR %maxfile% SET /a maxfile=%archivenumber%+1 ) echo %maxfile% ENDLOCAL A: I just added the ! to the variables within the FOR loop to ensure they are all expanded at execution time within the loop to ensure new set values are read accordingly to help get the final !maxfile! value as per each loop iteration. Furthermore, I added the CD /D "%%~F0" to the line above the start of the FOR loop to ensure the directory is changed to the directory the script resides since you're not explicitly specifying the directory in your command example but I added an explicit example script below as well. Batch Script (Implicit) SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION SET "maxfile=1" cd /d "%%~F0" for /f %%i in ('dir /b note_*.txt') do ( SET "archivename=%%~ni" SET "archivenumber=!archivename:~5!" if !archivenumber! GTR !maxfile! SET /a maxfile=!archivenumber!+1 ) echo !maxfile! ENDLOCAL Batch Script (Explicit) SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION SET "maxfile=1" SET "srcdir=C:\Folder\Path" for /f %%i in ('dir /b "%srcdir%\note_*.txt"') do ( SET "archivename=%%~ni" SET "archivenumber=!archivename:~5!" if !archivenumber! GTR !maxfile! SET /a maxfile=!archivenumber!+1 ) echo !maxfile! ENDLOCAL Further Resources * *EnableDelayedExpansion Delayed Expansion will cause variables within a batch file to be expanded at execution time rather than at parse time, this option is turned on with the SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion command. When delayed expansion is in effect, variables can be immediately read using !variable_name! you can also still read and use %variable_name% that will show the initial value (expanded at the beginning of the line). *For Variable Substitutions (FOR /?) In addition, substitution of FOR variable references has been enhanced. You can now use the following optional syntax: %~I - expands %I removing any surrounding quotes (") %~fI - expands %I to a fully qualified path namey

De minimis támogatás (csekély összegű támogatás) amely egy és ugyanazon vállalkozásnak meghatározott időszakon belül nyújtott, egy meghatározott összeget meg nem haladó támogatás, úgy tekinthető, mint amely nem felel meg az Európai Unió működéséről szóló szerződés (EUMSZ) 107. cikkének (1) bekezdésében meghatározott valamennyi feltételnek, ezért nem tartozik a bejelentési eljárás hatálya alá. A halászati és akvakultúra-ágazatban működő vállalkozásoknak a 717/2014/EU bizottsági rendelet, a mezőgazdasági termékek elsődleges termelésével foglalkozó vállalkozásoknak pedig az 1408/2013/EU bizottsági rendelet alapján nyújtható de minimis támogatás, az egyéb tevékenységet folytató vállalkozások pedig az 1407/2013/EU bizottsági rendelet hatálya alá tartoznak. A szó eredete A de minimis – latin kifejezés, jelentése: csekély mértékű, jelentéktelen.

Mayor Megan Barry, returning to her regular duties as Nashville's mayor Monday, opened up publicly about the death of her son, Max, from an apparent overdose and pivoted to a new role of becoming a voice in the national opioid crisis. Mayor Megan Barry, returning to her regular duties as Nashville's mayor Monday, opened up publicly about the death of her son, Max, from an apparent drug overdose and pivoted to a new role — a voice in the national opioid crisis. At an emotional news conference from the desk of her office, Barry thanked Nashvillians for their outpouring of support, which she said provided a "counter-balance" to her grief after the death of her 22-year-old son on July 29. She also addressed Max's past drug use, saying he had "occasional brushes" with drugs that prompted him last summer to enroll himself in a drug rehabilitation facility in Florida for a month. "I don't want his death to define his life, but we have to have a frank conversation about how he died," said Barry, who last week temporarily stepped aside from work after Max's death. "We don't have the full autopsy yet, we don't have the final toxicology report, but the reality is that Max overdosed on drugs. "I don't know exactly what the combination of drugs was, but I do know and we all know that that's what caused him to die." Max Barry died on the night of Saturday, July 29, in Littleton, Colo., a Denver suburb. In her return to work, Barry began Monday at Buena Vista Elementary School in North Nashville, where she passed out backpacks and hugged children as they arrived for Metro's first day of school. Barry and her husband, Bruce Barry, have chosen to be transparent after a tragedy that many mourn in privacy. Monday marked the first time the mayor has publicly discussed the matter. At times, she teared up and slowed her words as she discussed Max, his sense of humor and adventure, and the timeline that preceded his death. Max's childhood friend Tommy Prine and his mother, Fiona, sat next to reporters to show their support for the mayor. "Max will continue to inspire me and Bruce for the rest of our lives," she said. "Our hearts will always be sad and empty because we can never replace our child. But I know that with my faith, and I know that with my family and I know that with my friends, we will get through this. "My hope is that it may inspire and encourage other parents out there to have frank conversations with their own children about this. If that saves one life, then what a blessing." After completing rehab, Max had returned to college at the University of Puget Sound, where he graduated earlier this summer. Barry said he had started to settle in Denver and had landed a job at a concrete construction company there. "His intent was to get an apartment with two of his friends and stay out there for a while," Barry said. "And then make his way back to Nashville at some point. "That's where Max was in his journey, and then last Saturday night, he was with some friends ... and together with those friends, he did take drugs and those drugs did kill him." The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office has said that Max Barry was with two friends at a friend's home on the night of his death. They say his friends called 911 after finding him unresponsive and police pronounced him dead on the scene at around 9 p.m. Barry said she was notified of the death around 3 a.m. the next morning at her front door by Metro Police Sgt. Rob Forrest, who leads the security detail for the mayor. She said that she initially feared he was there to notify her that a police officer had been shot while on duty. "As we walked into the kitchen, Sergeant Forrest had the unfortunate responsibility and duty to tell me that was not why he was there and he told me that Max had passed away," Barry recounted. "He had to repeat it several times because that was not what my brain could hear." Max Barry graduated from high school at the University School of Nashville after he previously attended Martin Luther King Academic Magnet School. An autopsy report, which would include toxicology findings and an official cause of death, has not been released by the Jefferson County Coroner's Office in Colorado. It might not be available for another month. Though these details are unclear, Barry put Max's death in a larger tragic context of drug use, in particular the epidemic involving opioids. She said that Davidson County saw 245 overdoses last year involving opioids. "This is not an unfamiliar nationwide or community conversation," Barry said. "It's a national epidemic. Again, I don't know the exact combination of what killed my son, but drugs did it." In Metro, Barry said, first responders have already been equipped with Narcan, an emergency drug that is used for suspected opioid use. She said Narcan was administered to save Max. "But it didn't save his life," Barry said. "And so as we continue to think about what we can be doing as a community, it's not that last moment. It's all those moments that come before the Narcan. That's meaning that we have to be more specific about this crisis." Barry said Metro's 2017-18 budget includes funding for an opioid specialist in Nashville through the Metro Health Department. Metro is in the process of filling the position. She also pointed to Opportunity Now, the mayor's program that seeks to find employment and internship opportunities for Nashville youth. She said the program was inspired by a conversation she had once with Max. "I know that in this position of the mayor of Nashville, I have an opportunity to have a voice. As I'm nine days into this, we'll figure out what those next steps are. This is something that we already thinking about." Barry said it's still unclear which other roles she might have in combating the opioid crisis. "My goal after that conversation with Max was to open the door for all of our kids in Nashville. That's why we did that this summer with our Opportunity Now program." In an op-ed Tennessean column written by Barry, the mayor on Monday extended her thanks to Nashvillians for their support over the past week. Thousands attended a family visitation last week followed by a memorial service that was broadcast live. "You've blanketed us with love and kindness. I want to do everything in my power — and with my power — to do the same for you," Barry wrote. Barry said she is thankful for the work ahead in her role as mayor and that she is focused on the challenges. "The work of our city goes on," she said. "Every day I will get up in this new normal and do what needs to be done." The Barrys plan to visit Colorado later this month to lay to rest the ashes of Max, who was cremated Monday. On Monday, Barry recounted a visit she made before Max's death to the home of the mother of Jaezoine Woods, a 15-year-old McGavock High School student who was gunned down and killed inside the J.C. Napier Homes public housing development last month. "As a mother, I said to another mother that I don't know your pain but I'm here for you," Barry said. "And then when Max died on (Saturday), I reached back out to her and told her, 'No, actually I do know your pain.' It was very sweet of her to send out her love and prayers to us, and I was very appreciative and grateful."

STS-114 foi a primeira missão do programa do ônibus espacial de volta ao espaço após o desastre da nave Columbia em fevereiro de 2003. A Discovery foi lançada do Centro Espacial John F. Kennedy em 26 de julho de 2005, 907 dias após o trágico acidente que suspendeu os lançamentos por mais de dois anos. Tripulação Missão O problema que resultou na destruição da Columbia – restos de material de vedação caindo do tanque externo de combustível e da estrutura da nave durante a subida – aconteceu novamente, em menor escala , sem prejuízo da missão e sem afetar a segurança da tripulação, mas levou a NASA a adiar todos os voos do ônibus espacial por um ano, até que o problema fosse definitivamente resolvido com modificações na estrutura. Os reparos nas placas termais forma feitos em órbita resolvendo o problema, mas os voos voltaram a acontecer apenas em julho de 2006, com a missão STS-121 (as missões do ônibus espacial não seguem uma ordem cronológica sequencial). A STS-114 foi comandada por uma mulher e levou entre os tripulantes um astronauta japonês. A STS-114 deveria ter sido realizada pela nave Atlantis, mas ela foi substituída pela Discovery após serem descobertos equipamentos inapropriados instalados no sistema de freios da nave. Dezesseis anos antes, a Discovery também tinha sido a primeira a voltar ao espaço após a tragédia com a Challenger. Além de desembarcar suprimentos na ISS, a tripulação teve como tarefa principal avaliar e testar as novas técnicas de segurança e reparo em órbita do ônibus espacial, incluindo scanners alaser. Foram realizadas três atividades extraveiculares, para demonstração das técnicas de reparo externo da nave, para substituição de um giroscópio com defeito da ISS e para a instalação de uma pequena plataforma externa. Pela primeira vez foram feitos reparos externos numa nave em órbita pela equipe de astronautas. A missão foi estendida em mais um dia para que a tripulação da Discovery pudesse ajudar a equipe de bordo da ISS na manutenção da estação, atrasada devido ao fato da frota de ônibus espaciais estar em Terra há mais de dois anos para reestruturação dos componentes, devido ao desastre da Columbia e por ser incerto o prazo em que outro ônibus espacial pudesse voltar até a estação. (Durante este tempo, as viagens até a ISS foram feitas apenas pelas naves russas Soyuz, que não tem a capacidade de carga dos ônibus espaciais). A Discovery também deu um empuxo à ISS disparando seus motores acoplada à estação, para colocá-la na altura correta. (sem ignição própria, a estação de 200 toneladas perde 30m de altura por dia). Plano de Resgate Depois do desastre da Columbia na missão STS-107 em 1 de fevereiro de 2003, a NASA preocupou-se em que houvesse um plano de resgate em futuras missões do ônibus espacial, envolvendo a utilização de uma segunda nave em condições de voo em prazo mínimo. Mesmo antes do problema nos sensores que causaram o adiamento da missão STS-114, a agência havia planejado uma opção de resgate (nome de código: STS-300), na qual, em caso de impossibilidade ou grande risco na reentrada devido a problemas que fossem detectados antes da descida, a tripulação ficaria a bordo da ISS até que a Atlantis pudesse ser enviada com quatro astronautas para trazê-los de volta. A Discovery seria lançada depois por controle remoto no Oceano Pacífico e a Atlantis desceria com as duas tripulações juntas. Outra opção de resgate poderia ser executada pelos russos, com a nave Soyuz. O diretor da Agência Espacial Russa declarou ao Pravda que, se fosse necessário, eles teriam condições de enviar três naves Soyuz no prazo máximo de cinco meses, para apanhar os astronautas da STS-114 com no máximo um mês de diferença entre elas. A Soyuz tem capacidade para transportar até três tripulantes.

Braking for pedestrians is basic technology. Experts are asking what caused a self-driving Uber to hit one. Last August, I was a passenger in an autonomous Uber in downtown Pittsburgh in the same type of Volvo XC90 crossover with the same hardware as in the one that struck and killed a pedestrian in Tempe, Arizona, on Sunday night. As the Volvo I was in headed down a one-way street at 25 miles per hour, two women randomly stepped off the curb in front of the vehicle. The Volvo detected them and slowed, letting pass the women who were seemingly oblivious to traffic. As experts try to learn why Elaine Herzberg, 49, was hit as she walked across a road, questions abound. A safety driver was behind the steering wheel, but video released Wednesday by police shows the driver looking down before the crash. The initial focus is on the why the lidar-equipped car never reacted to the pedestrian – and whether one Uber engineer at the wheel was enough supervision when many companies use two. The Tempe incident shows the Volvo flunked Autonomous 101. Indeed, in a Google car ride I took at the company's Mountain View headquarters in 2015, Google deliberately ran a bicyclist in front of my car. The lidar-equipped, no-steering wheel auto-bot slowed and avoided the cyclist without incident. On a public street in a Lexus SUV Google tester earlier that year, a similar scenario occurred with a pair of jaywalkers. Uber and Google point to the aptitude of lidar-based systems (short for "light detection and ranging," the units bounce lasers off their surroundings in all directions) as proof that these vehicles are ready for public roads. Lidar is superior to the camera and radar systems found on the semi-autonomous showroom cars I've driven like the Tesla Model S and Cadillac CT6 with Super Cruise. Experts say lidar's detection ability is actually enhanced at night – when the Tempe incident occurred – because there is no glare from the sun. Yet, the video from the Tempe Uber XC90's dash cam shows that the vehicle not only doesn't slow down for the pedestrian, it seems to be totally unaware of her presence. The self-driving car doesn't appear to brake or swerve before impact. Even without expensive lidar systems, many modern cars utilize simpler radars and cameras to brake for pedestrians as well as other objects. Uber's Volvo XC90 was equipped with all three types of hardware in addition to an on-board computer that contained mapping – a so-called "geo-fence" – of the Uber's route. The weather was clear on the night of the Tempe incident. At root, autonomous cars are computer-based systems that engineers put through rigorous "stress testing" so that autonomous functions are repeatable. It's why engineers are determined to get a report on Uber's incident: Did a software algorithm misinterpret the situation? Did the lidar fail? Experts are also worried about the need for better redundant systems – and that includes the human safety-drivers behind the wheel so they can take over. Notably, there was only one person in the Tempe vehicle. My Pittsburgh test had two humans – one "operator" (Uber-speak for on-board engineers) ready to take over the wheel, the other to monitor on-board systems via a laptop and center screen. In the dashcam video released by the authorities after the Tempe incident, the single operator, Rafaela Vasquez, seems to be fiddling with the screen, distracted from the road until the moment of impact. Teams from the National Transportation Safety Board and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are investigating the crash. Kelley Blue Book auto analyst Karl Brauer notes that Waymo (Google's autonomous testing arm) also tests in Arizona, but without anyone at the wheel (an engineer rides in the back seat of its Chrysler Pacifica minivans). Other companies are testing the idea of "teleoperation" in which driverless vehicles are monitored remotely should they get into intractable situations. The Tempe incident raises a question: Whether autonomous autos should be held to a higher standard than human drivers. Brauer says the woman would likely have been struck by a human driver, given that she was crossing a dark four-lane road at night.

Jarvis cool over England furore Jarvis is being strongly tipped to be included in the England squad for the friendly international against France at Wembley on November 17. He has been watched by England head coach Fabio Capello and his assistant Franco Baldini in recent weeks. Jarvis was also praised by Sir Alex Ferguson after his performance against Manchester United in the Carling Cup, with the two sides meeting again at Old Trafford tomorrow in the Premier League. But Jarvis, who also impressed against Chelsea and Manchester City in the past fortnight, has his feet firmly on the ground. He said: "If Sir Alex was impressed by what he saw, that's fantastic coming from a manager of such standing in the game. "But I've got to stay focused and keep doing well for Wolves and making sure my performances don't drop. "I'm playing well and everything seems to be going well at the moment. "I'm enjoying playing against these (big-name) players. I love taking them on and seeing how I fare against them." But, when asked if he is good enough to play for England, Jarvis said: "It's hard for me to say. If it happens it would be fantastic for me. "It's one of the things I've always wanted to do. But I'm not assuming anything yet."

David Kiger Named to TEDx Board of Advisors by David Kiger | Mar 28, 2018 | Business Insight, TedX | 0 comments TEDx is known for their engaging and inspiring events hosted in local communities all around the world. When I was named to the board of advisors last year, it was a tremendous honor. As a longtime contributor to TED, I continue to be excited about the opportunities that abound from this organization. Moving forward, I'll be assisting them by providing advice and council to further their mission in sharing "ideas worth spreading." I recently watched a TED Talk from Marco Alverà where he shared his secret to creating a business environment where workers feel engaged and respected. According to Marco, "70% of workers feel disengaged," which translates to a loss of "550 billion dollars a year." Advice like his has the ability to truly change the world. Today, it's more important than ever that we nurture the spark of creativity and wonder, not just in our youth, but across all ages. It's this belief that makes being appointed to the TEDx board of advisors such a heartwarming moment for me. I earnestly encourage anyone looking to learn, grow and explore the world of creativity and mindfulness to attend an upcoming TED event. In the meantime, head over to the TEDx website to watch inspiring recordings of presentations given at previous events. Some of my personal favorites include: Alex Wagner on "What really motivates people to be honest in business" Baba Shiv on why "Sometimes it's good to give up the driver's seat" Nigel March on "How to make work-life balance work" Cameron Herold who says, "Let's raise kids to be entrepreneurs" Alef Mobitech beGlammed Employer Issues Exos Transport Group Minority-owned Businesses Women-owned Businesses

Doctor Testifies At Peterson Trial About Conflicting Savio Autopsies Filed Under:autopsy, Dr. Larry Blum, Drew Peterson, homicide, Kathleen Savio, Mike Krauser, Murder Trial, Pathologist Updated 08/16/12 – 4:36 p.m. JOLIET, Ill. (CBS) — For a second day, the focus in the Drew Peterson murder trial has been the two autopsies that came to different conclusions about Kathleen Savio's death, and the judge has had to tell the lawyers to stop bickering in front of jurors. READ MORE: 15-Year-Old Killed, Four Other Juveniles Wounded In Trio Of Shootings In Chicago On Tuesday WBBM Newsradio's Mike Krauser reports forensic pathologist Dr. Larry Blum continued testifying about his 2007 autopsy that ruled Savio's death was a homicide, and explaining why he reached a different conclusion than another pathologist, who ruled her death an accident three years earlier. Savio's body was found in a dry bathtub on March 1, 2004. Initially, her death was ruled an accidental drowning, but her body was exhumed and Blum reclassified her death as a homicide after Peterson's fourth wife, Stacy, vanished. LISTEN: WBBM Newsradio's Mike Krauser reports https://chicago.cbslocal.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/15116062/2012/08/mp3_bc_-wav_carts_peterson-v1-regine-8-16-12.mp3 As the defense began cross-examining Blum on Thursday, they tried to create doubt in the jury's mind about how Savio died, pointing a spotlight at the two differing autopsies. Blum has testified, based on his autopsy, Savio's death was a homicide. He said a gash on the back of her head and several bruises on the front of her body could not have been the result of a fall in the tub. He explained someone falling accidentally wouldn't have suffered injuries on both the front and back of their body. "A fall to the back of the head would not produce those types of injuries to the front of the body," Blum said. Blum also noted Savio had no bruises or injuries to her arms that would indicate she tried to stop herself from falling. He also pointed to the lack of drugs or alcohol in her system, saying adults don't drown in bathtubs unless they are intoxicated, or have physical maladies that would incapacitate them. But defense attorneys have said three pathologists they hired all said the injuries could have resulted from a fatal slip and fall in the tub. Blum acknowledged the first pathologist who performed an autopsy – and ruled her death an accident – was well-regarded professionally. Blum also acknowledged he relied a great deal on Dr. Bryan Mitchell's autopsy report in performing a second autopsy in 2007, although he reached a different conclusion. Mitchell has since passed away. The lawyers seemed a bit testy on Thursday, arguing about repeated objections that forced the jury in and out of the courtroom a number of times. READ MORE: Firefighters Respond To House Fire In Portage Park "I think Mr. Glasgow is in a bad mood today. Maybe he read the paper," defense attorney Joel Brodsky said, apparently referring to a Chicago Sun-Times editorial criticizing the prosecution and Will County State's Attorney James Glasgow, in particular, for repeatedly venturing into subjects the judge has barred from the case. Brodsky acknowledged all of the objections are probably weighing on the jury. "I have a really good suggestion on how to speed up the case. I think the state should just quit trying to introduce inadmissible and illegal evidence, and that will speed up the case" he said. "You'll notice that the case goes very smoothly when we're on. There's no objections. We don't try to do anything improper." Criminal defense attorney Kathleen Zellner, who has been observing the trial, said jurors do not like objections during a trial. "They feel that you're hiding evidence, that you're not being straight-forward," Zellner said. "I think it's been extremely tedious. I've not really been involved or observed a trial where there have been so many objections." On Wednesday, Blum's testimony brought a fresh rebuke from Will County Judge Edward Burmila, directed at prosecutors. While testifying Wednesday afternoon, Blum began telling jurors he examined the tub where Savio's body was found and climbed into it himself, prompting an objection from the defense team. Burmila angrily told Glasgow — who was questioning Blum — that he had barred any testimony about climbing into the tub. Glasgow also drew an objection from the defense team during opening statements, when he began to tell the jury that a former co-worker of Peterson's has said under oath that Peterson offered him $25,000 to hire a hitman to kill Savio. The judge told prosecutors they could not present any evidence from that co-worker during the trial. Burmila has clearly become frustrated with the prosecution's repeated slip-ups. "It doesn't appear that any orders I have entered in this case has the state paid attention to," he said, referring to repeated instances of prosecutors or prosecution witnesses mentioning something the judge had barred from the trial. Glasgow said he had warned Blum not to discuss getting into the tub. However, the defense team decided against seeking a mistrial this time, instead asking for all of Blum's testimony to be stricken from the record.

Booklice: The Cutest of Pests Humans have a tendency to think of 'nature' and the 'environment' as something distinct from our own society. Environments unmodified by humans are seen as 'natural' whereas structures created by human activity, such as buildings, are not 'natural' and thought to be somehow outside the 'environment'. As such, people often react strongly to the idea of things associated with the 'environment', such as non-human wildlife, encroaching on their homes. But of course, human houses are as much an environment of their own as any other of the world's habitats, and many animals find them to be places where they can thrive. Among the animals that most regularly share our houses with us are booklice of the genus Liposcelis. Liposcelis bostrychophila, copyright Andreas Eichler. Representatives of Liposcelis can be found almost anywhere in the world except in the coldest of regions. About 130 species have been described in the genus to date (Yoshizawa & Lienhard 2010) with doubtless more yet to be discovered (by comparison, Broadhead's review of the genus in 1950 recognised only 22 species, with a six-fold increase since then). The family Liposcelididae, to which Liposcelis belongs, differ from other free-living members of the Psocodea (or 'Psocoptera') in their flattened body form, as well as being smaller than most other examples (Liposcelis grow little more than a millimetre in length). In the flattened habitus, they resemble the parasitic true lice of the Phthiraptera, and recent studies have agreed that the liposcelidids represent the closest relatives of true lice (Yoshizawa & Lienhard 2010). Liposcelis species are readily distinguished from other liposcelidids by the shape of the hind legs: an obtuse tubercle on the outer margin of the hind femur gives it a distinctly broad appearance* (indeed, the genus name Liposcelis translates into English as 'fat thigh'). Liposcelis are also distinctive in being invariably wingless; other liposcelidid species typically come in both winged and wingless forms. Though the genus as a whole is easily recognised, distinguishing individual species is often a far more challenging prospect requiring microscopic examination of fine features of the chaetotaxy (arrangement of bristles on the body) and cuticular sculpture. Authors have divided Liposcelis species between a number of diagnostic sections and subgroups based on these and other features but the monophyly or otherwise of these subdivisions is largely unstudied. *This feature is also shared with a cave-dwelling species from Ascension Island currently placed in its own genus, Troglotroctes ashmoleorum, but it seems more than likely that this species is itself a derived offshoot of Liposcelis. Liposcelis species can feed on a wide range of organic matter but, like other 'Psocoptera', their primary source of food is probably yeasts and fungal spores (their vernacular name has been attributed to their feeding on yeasts growing on the glue binding books, though I would note that they are also probably more likely to be seen crawling on the light background of a book's page than in other, less closely examined corners of the house). Turner (1994) provided a detailed review of the natural history of one of the most widespread domestic pest species in the genus, L. bostrychophila, and reports that he was able to maintain cultures on "'Weetabix'™, 'Shreddies'™, baby rice, soya granules, sage and onion stuffing mix, skimmed milk powder, 'Oat Krunchies'™, red lentils, and yellow split peas". Other stored foods from which complaints had been received of booklice included "sugar, bread, salt, bay leaves, gelatine powder, poppadoms, custard powder, dried yeast, instant potato, nuts, dried fruit, baby food, sauce mix, dried mushrooms, pasta, coconut, cocoa, milk powder, spices, glace cherries, garlic, baking powder, icecream mix, dried soup, cracked wheat, carob powder, maize meal, wheat germ, jellied sweets and bread crumbs". They have also been found on cured meat and may damage curated insect specimens. As well as obtaining moisture from their food, Liposcelis are also able to extract water directly from the atmosphere owing to the hygroscopic properties of their saliva. A booklouse will hold a drop of saliva inside its mouth, then swallow it when the ball has absorved enough water from the air. Liposcelis sp. (possibly L. meridionalis?) from southern France, copyright Jessica Joachim. Female Liposcelis bostrychophila generally reach maturity and begin producing eggs about two weeks after hatching and may produce two or three eggs a day. As each egg is about one-third the size of the adult, this means that a female at peak fecundity is producing her own body mass in eggs in a single day. Most Liposcelis species reproduce sexually but some are parthenogenetic. Domestic L. bostrychophila, for instance, seem to be entirely parthenogenetic with males of the species only known from isolated collections in Hawaii, Arizona and Senegal (Georgiev et al. 2020). Studies on an unnamed species of Liposcelis from Arizona found that sex determination seemed to be facultative, determined by the mother, with no evidence for differentiated sex chromosomes (Hodson et al. 2017). Females seemed to produce more males early in life and more females later. The same studies also established the occurrence of paternal genome elimination in this species, where chromosomes inherited from the father were inactivated in the offspring and not passed on to their own progeny (which raises the question that, if males are effectively a genetic dead end, why would a female produce male offspring at all?) Paternal genome elimination has also been found in the human louse Pediculus humanus, and may be characteristic of the broader clade encompassing these species, but other species remain unstudied. Liposcelis genomes are also remarkable in the occurrence of fragmentation of the mitochondrial genome. Whereas some Liposcelis species have only a single mitochondrial chromosome, as is standard for most other animals, some species have the mitochondrial genome divided between two, three, five or seven chromosomes (Feng et al. 2019). The functional significance, if any, of this feature remains unknown. Though booklice may be found in houses and stores on the regular, they are mostly only minor pests, only causing distress when reaching large numbers (an exceptional case quoted by Turner, 1994, involved a house in New Jersey at the beginning of the 1900s that became so infested "'that a pinpoint could not have been put down without touching one or more of these bugs"). They are not believed to transmit pathogens, except perhaps incidentally by carrying microbes from one store to another. For the most part, these little beasties are just another part of the wildlife that shares our homes with us, whether we are aware of them or not. Feng, S., H. Li, F. Song, Y. Wang, V. Stejskal, W.

Do Lutherans use the Apostles Creed? What creed does the Lutheran Church use? What is the difference between the Holy Catholic Church and the Roman Catholic Church? Who wrote the Nicene Creed? What is the difference between the Catholic Church and the Roman Catholic Church? Is the Nicene Creed Catholic? Is the creed in the Bible? What is the Southern Baptist creed? Nicene Creed, also called Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed, a Christian statement of faith that is the only ecumenical creed because it is accepted as authoritative by the Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican, and major Protestant churches. The Nicene Creed is the most widely accepted statement of faith among Christian churches. It is used by Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican, Lutheran, and most Protestant churches. Lutheran churches The Missouri Synod uses the following for the Nicene Creed: I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth and of all things visible and invisible. The Nicene Creed is the only creed accepted by all three major branches of Christendom: Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and Protestant. … In other words the church that they protest against is the one and only universal church of God (The Catholic Church). THIS IS UNIQUE: Best answer: Who is the famous church in India? Baptists embrace all of those beliefs. The Nicene Creed describes the doctrine of the Trinity as one God manifested in three distinct and equal persons. Southern Baptists also believe these doctrines, but they stop short of officially embracing the creeds and instead focus on individual faith. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, (2 Corinthians 1:3, I Thessalonians 1:1, Romans 13:14) the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all ages; (John 3:16, Hebrews 1:6, Matthew 14:33, Revelation 1:8) God of God, Light of Light, true God of true God; begotten, not made, (John 1:1, I John 1:5, John 8:12, John … In 381, it was amended at the First Council of Constantinople. The amended form is also referred to as the Nicene Creed, or the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed for disambiguation. The difference between Apostles and Nicene Creeds is that the Apostles' Creed is used during Baptism while the Nicene Creed is mainly linked with the death of Jesus Christ. It is recited in the course of Lent and Easter. Lutherans following the Lutheran Service Book (Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod and the Lutheran Church–Canada), like Catholics and Anglicans, use the Apostles' Creed during the Sacrament of Baptism: Do you believe in God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth? Ecumenical creeds is an umbrella term used in Lutheran tradition to refer to three creeds: the Nicene Creed, the Apostles' Creed and the Athanasian Creed. THIS IS UNIQUE: What does the New Testament say about prayer? The terms "Catholic Church" and "Roman Catholic Church" are names for the entire church that describes itself as "governed by the successor of Saint Peter and by the bishops in communion with him." In its formal documents and pronouncements the church most often refers to itself as the "Catholic Church" or simply "the … The original Nicene Creed was first adopted in 325 at the First Council of Nicaea. At that time, the text ended after the words "We believe in the Holy Spirit," after which an anathema was added. The Coptic Church has the tradition that the original creed was authored by Pope Athanasius I of Alexandria. The difference between Catholic and Roman Catholic is that Roman Catholics are a majority, whereas Catholics are a minority group. They differ in their Bible, denominations, the papacy, Beliefs on sacraments, tradition, and the significance of the virgin Mary. The Catholics are also called the 'Greek Orthodox'. Several creeds have originated in Christianity. 1 Corinthians 15:3–7 includes an early creed about Jesus' death and resurrection which was probably received by Paul. THIS IS UNIQUE: What does the word dogma mean in the Bible? Southern Baptists observe two ordinances: the Lord's Supper and believer's baptism (also known as credo-baptism, from the Latin for "I believe"). Furthermore, they hold the historic Baptist belief that immersion is the only valid mode of baptism.

Australian Motor Industries (AMI) was an automobile assembly firm that was significant in the early history of the automotive industry in Australia. The origins of Australian Motor Industries can be traced back to 1926 when J.F. Crosby decided to invest in Eclipse Motors Pty Ltd of Melbourne. In 1929 the company secured the Victorian agency for Standard Motor Company's cars, then changed the company name to Talbot and Standard Motors, and began a steady period of expansion with the Standard marque through the 1930s. In 1952 the Crosby family formed a holding company, Standard Motor Products Ltd, in co-operation with the Standard Motor Company of England to assemble cars at their new assembly plant in Port Melbourne. The subsidiary company responsible for vehicle assembly was the Standard Motor Company (Australia) Limited. Import tariffs on vehicles encouraged the growth of the Australian vehicle body building industry from the early 1920s. The tax concessions varied with the degree of local content. In 1958 the company negotiated an agreement with Daimler-Benz to assemble and distribute Mercedes-Benz vehicles in Australia. In recognition of this new agreement the company was renamed Australian Motor Industries and a new subsidiary company was formed to handle the Mercedes Benz franchise. Through its long association with the Standard Motor Company, AMI also held the franchise for Triumph cars and assembled Ferguson tractors through another subsidiary company of the group, British Farm Equipment. An extensive dealer network throughout NSW and Victoria saw Standard cars and Ferguson tractors sold side by side in country areas. The most popular car sold was the Vanguard model. In October 1960, AMI signed an agreement with American Motors Corporation (AMC) to assemble the Rambler range of cars from complete knock down (CKD) kits. Another deal with Fiat was planned to replace the Ferguson tractors distributed by BFE. The Standard Motor Company had sold their tractor facility in Coventry to Massey Ferguson and focused on automobile production. AMI ran into financial trouble during the Australian credit squeeze of 1961 and the company was forced to sell off many assets and vehicle stock to remain solvent. Part of the restructure resulted in the sale of their share in the Mercedes Benz franchise to the German parent company. Other cars assembled by AMI included the Rambler range from American Motors and Triumph cars from Leyland Motors. Leyland had inherited shares in AMI when it had merged with Standard-Triumph International in 1961. During the early 1960s the foreign share of the automobile motor vehicle market was estimated to be 95%, and as the only sizeable producer with a local equity, AMI continued to manufacture overseas designs. AMI assembled the Triumph Herald from 1959 to 1966 and produced some unique Australian models. The Triumph 2000/2500 range was assembled in Port Melbourne from 1964 to the mid-1970s. By 1965, the demise of the Standard Vanguard and the loss of assembly rights for Mercedes-Benz vehicles left AMI with additional capacity to assemble Rambler and Triumph. Starting in 1960, AMI assembled a broad range of AMC cars, all with right-hand drive and carried the Rambler brand name. This meant that Australians could purchase a Rambler Javelin, AMX, Hornet, Rebel, or Matador long after the Rambler marque was dropped from use on the equivalent U.S.-market models. Complete knock down kits were shipped from AMC's Kenosha, Wisconsin facility (all knock-down kits to all assembly operations were from Kenosha), but the Australian cars were assembled with a percentage of "local content" to gain tariff concessions. This was done using parts and components (such as seats, carpet, lights, and heaters) from local Australian suppliers. AMI specified what parts were not to be included in the unassembled kits sent by AMC. Other necessary parts specified by the assembler were boxed and shipped for assembly at the final destination in Australia. It is unknown exactly how many parts were included to be installed by the assembly operation, that varied with each operation. Outside colors were chosen by AMI and were the same as used on AMI assembled Triumph cars of that period. The distinctive AMI exterior emblems were used on Ramblers, as well as Triumph cars assembled by AMI from 1968 onward.

Peace, dignity and equality on a healthy planet About the UN Main Organs Maintain International Peace and Security Protect Human Rights Deliver Humanitarian Aid Promote Sustainable Development Uphold International Law Meetings Coverage & Press Releases Awake at Night podcast UN Charter Security Council Resolutions Secretary-General's Annual Report Observances International Weeks United Nations Anniversaries Celebrating Multilingualism Why do we mark International Days? From the start in 1945, one of the main priorities of the United Nations was to "achieve international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character and in promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion." Improving people's well-being continues to be one of the main focuses of the UN. The global understanding of development has changed over the years, and countries now have agreed that sustainable development – development that promotes prosperity and economic opportunity, greater social well-being, and protection of the environment – offers the best path forward for improving the lives of people everywhere. UN Photo/Riccardo Gangale Grace, a farmer from Kipilat village, and a leading member of the forest community in Ainabkoi, Kenya, planting a tree in 2012. Close to 40 per cent of the population of the developing world lived in extreme poverty only two decades ago. Since then, the world has halved extreme poverty, with the UN's Millennium Development Goals greatly contributing to this progress. Recognizing the success of the MDGs, and the need to complete the job of eradicating poverty, the UN adopted an ambitious 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. At the same time, as climate change poses a growing challenge to the world's development objectives, the UN supported negotiations to adopt a meaningful and universal global climate agreement in 2015. The UN is also working to develop a financing for development framework to ensure that both the sustainable development agenda and climate action are properly resourced. A Sustainable Development Agenda A sustainable development portal, 2015 Time for Global Action for People and Planet, was launched by the United Nations in 2015. It focuses on the UN's post-2015 sustainable development agenda and contains information on the UN's efforts to tackle climate change and on many other related issues. The website highlights the Secretary-General's report presenting the vision for the post-2015 sustainable development agenda and shows how you can help publicize these important issues. The UN's new post-2015 sustainable development agenda was launched at the Sustainable Development Summit in September 2015. The Millennium Development Goals helped end poverty for some, but not for all. The UN's new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) will complete the work begun with the MDGs. SDG Summit 2019 On 24 and 25 September 2019, Heads of State and Government will gather at the United Nations Headquarters in New York to follow up and comprehensively review progress in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The event is the first UN summit on the SDGs since the adoption of the 2030 Agenda in September 2015. The Millennium Development Goals In September 2000, world leaders committed their nations to achieving eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015. These goals range from halving extreme poverty to halting the spread of HIV/AIDS and providing universal primary education. To attain them, the Secretary-General has launched different initiatives, including the Zero Hunger Challenge and Every Woman, Every Child. Great progress has been made in reaching many of these goals, but much more needs to be done. The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has warned of the increasing dangers of climate change and has spoken of the urgency to find solutions before it is too late. At the present rate, greenhouse gas emissions are rising and the world is on a path to raise the global average temperature by more than three degrees Celsius this century. The world is already experiencing the impacts of climate change, from sea-level rise to melting glaciers, to more extreme weather patterns. Sustainability is an important part of counteracting climate change. The UN is supporting efforts to assess the climate science, facilitate negotiations under the UN Framework Convention for a climate agreement, and provide assistance to countries and communities to reduce emissions and to build climate resilience. To address climate change, Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has launched a number of initiatives, including Sustainable Energy for All, that is working to help people access clean energy, improve energy efficiency and increase their use of renewable sources of energy. The UNFCCC Secretariat supported efforts to reach a new universal climate change agreement in Paris in 2015, providing a pathway forward to limit temperature rise to well below 2 degrees, maybe even 1.5. The Climate Summit, held in New York in September 2014, helped raise awareness of the importance of climate change by mobilizing support for a climate agreement and catalysing action in advance of the Paris meeting in 2015. Disasters can destroy communities in seconds, which is why building resilience must be at the heart of sustainable development. The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) works with governments and other stakeholders to ensure the reduction of disaster losses in lives and assets of communities and countries. A conference in 2015, near the site of the devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan, advanced actions to reduce the risks from disasters by adopting the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030. To learn more, visit the portal for disaster risk reduction. Gender equality and empowering women and girls While the world has achieved progress towards gender equality under the UN Millennium Development Goals, women and girls continue to suffer discrimination and violence in every part of the world. Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world. UN Women works to eliminate discrimination against women and girls, empower all women, and achieve equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security. What are the main UN offices and programmes working on development? The UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs works closely with governments and stakeholders to help countries around the world to meet their economic, social and environmental goals. The United Nations Development Programme works with people at all levels of society to help build nations that can withstand crisis and drive and sustain the kind of growth that improves the quality of life for everyone. Many UN agencies work on specific aspects of development, such as the World Health Organization, the Food and Agriculture Organization, UNICEF, UNESCO and the UN Environment Programme. What UN bodies work to promote development? The General Assembly's Second Committee (Economic and Financial) deals with issues relating to economic growth, human settlements, poverty eradication, globalization and information and communication technologies.

Oviedo is renowned for the statues which have been graced its streets since the early 1990s. From classic sculptures to modern art, a walk through Oviedo is like strolling through a giant open-air museum. A few really stand out, none more so than El Regreso de Williams B. Arrensberg, by Eduardo Úrculo, in the Plaza de Porlier. Oviedo's most celebrated monument is the Catedral de San Salvador, found in the middle of the city and visible from miles away. Closely linked with the Camino de Santiago, the pilgrimage leading to Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, the cathedral is also known as Sancta Ovetensis in reference to the abundance of important artifacts stored inside. Once in awhile we'll be posting a random set of photos, which don't easily fit into other posts, but are too good to ignore! These are all from our first week in Oviedo, and reveal some of my initial impressions. Originally constructed in 848, the Santa María del Naranco and San Miguel de Lillo are Oviedo's most important Pre-Romanesque structures. Entering 80 years of history, the International Descenso del Sella has become one of the most important events on the Asturian calendar. Over 300,000 people showed up to watch this year's canoe and kayak race and participate in a week full of parties. The villages of Tuñón and Entrago, found south of Oviedo, are connected by the Senda del Oso, a popular trail running through the valley carved by the Trubia River. Formerly a track for mining trains, the trail has been converted for recreational use and has a lot to recommend it: rapids, tunnels, cliffs, fountains, villages and, yes, bears.

Four College presidents reflect on voting rights, 2020 election Ella Marx The presidents of four institutions of higher education — Maud S. Mandel of Williams College, Wayne A. I. Frederick of Howard University, Ellen Kennedy of Berkshire Community College (BCC) and Jonathan Holloway of Rutgers University — discussed the significance of voting rights and the 2020 election for colleges and universities at a Zoom webinar on Tuesday night. The panel, "Voting Rights, Election 2020, Colleges, Universities, and Us," was hosted by the W. Ford Schumann '50 Program in Democratic Studies at Williams in conjunction with the Eagleton Institute of Politics at Rutgers. Neil Roberts, chair of Africana studies and director of the Schumann Program, and John Farmer, director of the Eagleton Institute of Politics at Rutgers and former attorney general of New Jersey, moderated the panel. The presidents first discussed three questions asked by the moderators, followed by questions submitted by audience members. On the subject of voting rights, the presidents first explored the historical implications of disenfranchisement and reflected on institutions' responsibilities to encourage engaged citizenry. Mandel remarked on the role of higher education institutions as promoters of democracy. "The core values of democracy are built into our institutions of higher learning, no matter what kind they are," she said. "I did not think it was the job of higher education to fight for democracy itself, and yet this year I have come to think that that must be a core part of our mission that we must elevate." Considering institutions' roles in developing American political culture, Holloway noted that Rutgers' role as a land-grant institution puts Rutgers in service to the state of New Jersey, but he believes Rutgers is "in service to the state, the nation and the world." "Thinking of voting as a local phenomenon, with tremendous impacts beyond that of course… to me it is incumbent upon universities and university leadership to talk about the importance of exercising the franchise," Holloway said. The presidents also described the ways in which their respective institutions incorporate the implications of voting and the importance of enfranchisement into their community members' daily lives. Kennedy discussed how BCC is integrating the theme of voting into the curriculum to amplify its significance. This year, Kennedy said, "Eight faculty incorporated these themes into several of their courses. We saw it as a high-impact practice and we saw it as a way of increasing student retention and student engagement." Frederick mentioned that Howard's homecoming theme this year was advocacy, and important homecoming events included symposiums such as "From Protest to Policy: the Pursuit of Racial Justice." "Homecoming at Howard is an excellent reminder of our university's purpose and the role we play in our community and the country," Frederick said. "While we could not come home to this physical place, it was clear to me that we needed to come home to our souls, come home to our purpose." The panelists discussed how institutions will navigate the challenging dynamics of the November election, as many of their community members are college students who are first-time voters, as well as members of the first generation to grow up with social media and widespread internet access. The presidents agreed that students are generally well-informed and socially motivated, and that new ideas are constantly evolving on campuses; Frederick added that part of institutions' commitment to students is to help develop their critical thinking as they form their own judgements based off of the information they possess. "We, as universities, have to help [students] understand how to synthesize, and not synthetize for them, but demonstrate to them that it takes time and patience to get there," Frederick said. Although they each represent institutions with distinctly different student bodies, all of the presidents stressed the importance of the civic responsibility of voting and underscored the crucial role voting plays in the ability of institutions to provide their students with well-rounded educations and enrich their surrounding communities.

Very shocking, i not read the news yet but I guess the sauna must be Gword, since it is the one and the only gay assemble place in penang. haiz..kind of pathetic, a refuge for plu to connect with people that share the same passion has ruined already!! No doubt M'sia is a Muslim country yet the world has moved forward! Apart from spending millions of public money to send another 'gay' for the recent space trip, we are back in to the cave chanting M'sia 'Boleh' for not really achive anything. 1. Eventually, PLU tourisms will put-off by the government attacks on gay venues. 2. The young professional PLU will eventually leave the country to somewhere safe, at lease somewhere will not be humiliated by the government acts. 3. Our human rights in being rip off by our very own native country and this will never change, until we can make our voice heard in our decaying government. May the recent affair will never happened in our life!

Trump Honored With Friends of Zion Museum Award in White House Ceremony December 27, 2017 Winter Watch Around the Web, International News, Politics, US News 1 IMAGE: TradCatKnight.blogspot.com 'President Trump's historic recognition of Jerusalem will secure his place in history as the first American president to take that step since the founding of the State of Israel in 1948.' JERUSALEM POST — U.S. President Donald Trump received the Friends of Zion Award from the founder of the Friends of Zion Museum in Jerusalem, Dr. Mike Evans, in a ceremony at the White House on Tuesday. The event was attended by Vice President Mike Pence, senior advisers Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, and faith leaders representing more than 150 million Christians globally. "No president in history has ever built such an alliance for the State of Israel and the Jewish people, and no president has courageously stood up for the State of Israel on the global stage as you had Mr. President," Evans declared at the ceremony. "President Trump's historic recognition of Jerusalem will secure his place in history as the first American president to take that step since the founding of the State of Israel in 1948." The Friends of Zion Award was previously been bestowed on world leaders such as president George W. Bush, Prince Albert II of Monaco and president Rosen Plevneliev of Bulgaria. Evans presented those awards together with the late president Shimon Peres, former chairman of the Friends of Zion Museum, to honor their courageous support of the State of Israel and the Jewish people.

Q: Is there a way to know which packages are being installed by pip inside setup.py? I need bson utilities in my python module, so I found this awesome module - https://github.com/py-bson/bson, which answers my needs exactly. Then, I added my module to requirements.txt of another project, but on the same requirements.txt there was pymongo, and I found out that it makes the pymongo corrupted by overriding pymongo's built-in bson, which causes import errors in pymongo. I found this issue https://github.com/py-bson/bson/issues/29 which concluded that those 2 packages shouldn't live together, so I'm trying to figure out if I can somehow, on the setup.py understand if I'm being installed with pymongo so I can skip the installation of bson and used the built-in of pymonogo? I know I can check if pymongo is already installed in the setup.py, but I cannot know for sure that after my module is being installed that one of the next modules in the requirements is not pymongo. Also, I would like to avoid directly reading the requirements file because I want to be able to support nested requirements.txt if needed.

If you haven't played the premier league fantasy football this is the time to start. Just go on to www.premierleague.com and click sign up on the box where it says fantasy league. Now to the match preview. Valencia CF won the last preseason match against Sporting Lisbon 3-0 and while it wasn't the best play it was at least a high enough victory for us to forget the previous disappointment at the feet of Rapid Wien. The coach has worked quite a bit on the technical side of things with close ball control, possession, passing and some attacking moves. The players were put in two groups with the ones that played more training on possession and the second group on the more tactical side of things. The match against Hamburg will be a good measurement how we stack up now after defeating Sporting 3-0 and if we can achieve a positive result here. Hamburg SV is a German club based in the same name town Hamburg and in case you were wondering yes the hamburger name originates from Hamburg. The theory is that stuffing meat in between two bread pieces was a specialty in Hamburg and when many fled to the USA the name catched on to describe the meal. Hamburg SV is a well known name in German football and is the only team to never been relegated from top flight league. HSV reached the second round of the 2011/12 DFB Cup on Saturday afternoon, by way of a narrow 2-1 win over fifth division side VfB Oldenburg. This means that HSV might not be as well prepared and is a chance for Valencia CF to take. Valencia CF on the other hand has won 3 of its 4 preseason friendlies with 3 of them finishing with clean sheets, with the one sticking out with 4 goals conceded being the Rapid match. Valencia CF has had really bad news with injuries and its pretty much the same thing once again with Guaita, Aduriz and now Adil Rami being injured. Good news is that Tino Costa has returned and hopefully he will get some playing time. Ever Banega is going to miss the match though as he has some more fitness to do before being able to play. Goalkeepers: Diego Alves and Adrián. Defense: Miguel, Bruno, Dealbert, R.Costa, Pardo, Jordi Alba, Mathieu and Salva Ruiz. Midfield: Maduro, Tino Costa, Albelda, Topal, Feghouli, Juan Bernat, Pablo, Portu, Piatti, Mata and Parejo. Tactics: mixed passing, high opposing field pressure, 3-way attack and positional changes from the wings, interchanging with the CM and AM.

Hardness Testing – A Brief History Sponsored by BuehlerJan 31 2018 Hardness, as applied to most materials, and in specific metals, is a valuable, revealing and extensively used mechanical test that has been in use in different forms for more than 250 years. Indeed, as a material property, its importance and value cannot be understated, and the information from a hardness test can complement and frequently be used in conjunction with other material verification techniques such as compression or tensile in order to provide critical performance information. How important and useful is material and hardness testing? Consider the information offered and its significance in aerospace, automotive, quality control, structural, failure analysis, and several other forms of manufacturing and industry. Determining these material properties offers valuable insight into the strength, flexibility, durability, and capabilities of a wide range of component types from raw materials to prepared specimens, and finished goods. Over the years, different methods for determining the hardness of materials have been created and used at varying levels of success. From early forms of scratch testing to sophisticated automated imaging, hardness testing has advanced into an accurate, efficient and valued material test method. While testing techniques and hardware have considerably improved, particularly in recent years and in step with rapidly advancing electronics, hardware, computer, and programming capabilities, earlier, basic forms of hardness testing, such as the simple scratch test, sufficed for the need of the relevant era. Some of the earliest forms of bar scratch testing date back to about 1722. These tests were carried out based on a bar that increased in hardness from end to end. The level at which the material being tested could develop a scratch on the bar was a determining factor in the specimens hardness. Later, in 1822, hardness testing forms were launched that included scratching material surfaces with a diamond and measuring the width of the resultant line, a test eventually known as the Mohs scale. This method is still used today in some processes. The Mohs scale comprises of 10 minerals, ordered from hardest at 10 (diamond) to softest at 1 (talc). Each mineral is capable of scratching those that fall below it in the scale hierarchy. The Mohs scale is not linear; the difference in hardness between 9 and 10 is mainly more than that between 1 and 2. To put the Mohs scale into perspective, a tangible example is that of hardened tool steel which falls at about 7 or 8 on the scale. Over the next 75 years, other more advanced versions of the scratch test were launched including integrated stage, microscope, and diamond apparatuses that applied increasing loads up to 3 grams. The material to be tested was scratched under load variants and then compared to a standard set of scratches of known value. A more advanced version of this system used a diamond mounted at the end of a tapered steel spring. The other end of the spring was connected to a balance arm with a 3-gram weight. The material being tested was shifted by a hand-actuated wheel and worm gear system, on top of which was placed a stage and holding fixture for the material. A fixed pressure was applied as the material was traversed leading to a "cut" in the material which was then measured under the microscope with the help of a filar micrometer eyepiece. A mathematical formula, essential to the process, was then used for deriving the hardness. Indentation type hardness was later introduced, one early form developed about 1859, was based on the load needed to produce a 3.5 mm indent in the material. The depth was then measured with a vernier scale system and the total load required to reach the 3.5 mm was named the hardness. The penetrator comprised of a truncated cone that tapered from 5 mm at the top to 1.25 mm at the point. This method was mainly effective in soft materials. Another early form of indentation test involved pressing right angles geometries of the same test material into one another and then measuring the width of the resulting impression. Different formats developed from this technique during the early 1900s that likewise used "mutual" indentation of cylindrical test material with the longitudinal axis pressed at right angles to each other. Brinell Hardness Testing The first extensively accepted and standardized indentation-hardness test was projected by J. A. Brinell in 1900. Brinell's interest in materials science developed during his involvement in a number of Swedish iron companies and his wish to have a fast and consistent means of determining material hardness. The Brinell hardness test, still extensively used today, comprises of indenting the metal surface with a 1 to 10 mm diameter steel or, most recently, a tungsten carbide ball at heavy loads of up to 3,000 kg. The resultant impression, the diameter of the indentation, is measured with the help of a low-power microscope after removal of the load. The average of two readings of the diameter of the impression at right angles are taken and mathematically calculated to a hardness value. The Brinell test basically introduced the production phase of indentation hardness testing and opened the way for further indentation tests that were more relevant to material types. Scleroscope Hardness Tester Around the same time as the Brinell was developing as a useful test, the Scleroscope hardness tester was launched as one of the first "non-marking" hardness-testing instruments. Albert F. Shore, who discovered the Shore Instrument Manufacturing Company in New York, and whose name is currently synonymous with durometer testing, engineered the Scleroscope as an alternative hardness test. The Scleroscope used a diamond tipped "hammer", held within a glass-fronted tube that fell, from a height of 10 inches, onto a test specimen. The rebound of the hammer was measured on a graduated scale of "Shore" units, each separated into 100 parts that offer a comparison with the rebound that might be expected from hardened high-carbon steel. The hardness reading is technically a measure of the elasticity of the material. One key advantage of the Scleroscope was its "non-destructive" nature in that, unlike the other available methods of hardness testing at the time, a Scleroscope left only a slight mark on the material under test, apparently leaving it available for use after evaluation. As the 20th century progressed and endured two world wars, with the simultaneous growth of the industrial revolution global industrialization and increased manufacturing requirements brought an urgent need for more efficient and refined test methods, and as a result, new techniques started to develop. Efficient, accurate forms of testing were required in response to heavy manufacturing demands, structural failures, and the need to design adequate material integrity into the growing global infrastructure. Vickers Hardness Testing The Vickers hardness test was developed in 1924 by two gentlemen, Smith and Sandland, at Vickers Ltd, a British Engineering conglomerate. The test, developed as an alternative to the Brinell, was developed in response to the need to have a more refined test over the material limitations that the Brinell was effective on. The Vickers test uses the same principle as the Brinell, that of a regulated impression on the material, but instead utilized a pyramid-shaped diamond rather than the Brinell ball indenter. This led to a more versatile and consistent hardness test. Later, in 1939, an alternative to the Vickers test was launched by Fredrick Knoop at the US National Bureau of Standards. The Knoop test made use of a shallower, elongated format of the diamond pyramid and was designed for use under lower test forces than the Vickers hardness test, allowing more accurate testing of thin or brittle materials. Both the Knoop and Vickers tests continue as popular hardness analysis methods today. Rockwell Hardness Testing Despite being conceived as an idea in 1908 by a Viennese professor, Paul Ludwik, the Rockwell indentation test did not become of commercial importance until around 1914 when brothers Stanley and Hugh Rockwell, working from a manufacturing company in Bristol Connecticut, succeeded in expanding the idea of using a conical diamond indention test based on displacement and applied for a patent for a Rockwell tester design. The main criterion for this tester was to offer a quick method for determining the effects of heat treatment on steel bearing races. One of the key strengths of the Rockwell was the small area of indentation required. It is also much easier to use as readings are direct, without the requirement for calculations or secondary measurements. The patent application was approved on February 11th, 1919 and later, in 1924 a more enhanced design patent was granted. At the same time, Stanley Rockwell was starting commercial production of Rockwell testers in association with instrument manufacturer Charles H. Wilson in Hartford, Connecticut. The company grew into the Wilson Mechanical Instrument Company and was called the premium producer of Rockwell testers. After some changes in ownership through the latter 1900s, Wilson was attained in 1993 by Instron, a global leader in the material testing industry and today it has become a vital part of Instron/Illinois Tool Works. Presently known as Wilson Hardness, the combined expertise of Instron/Wilson, along with the subsequent acquisitions of Wolpert Hardness and Reicherter Hardness, have resulted in the engineering and production of cutting-edge hardness systems. The Rockwell test continues to be one of the most efficient and extensively used hardness test types today. Hardness Testing - Today and the Future Presently, with significant enhancements in recent years in hardness testing instrumentation, computer hardware, imaging algorithms, electronics, and software capabilities, the door has opened to exceptionally precise and reliable testing processes that provide results more rapidly than ever before, frequently in automated fashion. These techniques and components have proven to be beneficial in increasing efficiency, accuracy, and speed to unparalleled levels. Over the past several years and no doubt increasingly in the future, more standard manual test processes have and will continue to rapidly make way for automation in every aspect of the testing process. New techniques in material preparation and handling, stage movement, mount fixturing, results interpretation, and analysis, and even reporting have been introduced to the hardness testing industry. More and more automation technology is being incorporated into a number of hardness systems using stage traversing and image analysis of Knoop, Vickers, and Brinell indentations. An automatic hardness system usually comprises of a fully controllable tester, including an auto-rotating or revolving turret and also actuation in the Z axis either from the head/indenter housing or from a spindle driven system used for both applying the indent at a predetermined force and also for automatically focusing the specimen. Add to this a standard computer with dedicated hardness software, a USB video camera, and an automatic XY traversing motorized stage, and the result is a powerful, completely automatic hardness testing system. These systems can be left alone to automatically produce, measure, and report on an almost unlimited number of indentation traverses. This newer technology prevents much of the hardware that in the past caused cluttered workspace and operational challenges. Hardness testing plays a vital role in quality control, materials testing and acceptance of components. The data is needed to verify the structural integrity, heat treatment, and quality of components in order to determine if a material has the properties necessary for its intended use. Through the years, establishing means of increasingly more productive and effective testing through refining standard testing design has made way to new cutting-edge methods that execute and interpret hardness tests in a more effective manner than ever before. The result is increased potential and dependence on "letting the instrument do the work," contributing to considerable increases in throughput and consistency and continuing to making hardness tests extremely useful in R&D and industrial applications and in assuring that the materials employed in the things people use every day contribute to an efficient, well-engineered, and safe world.

Ashley Down station tour 13 Oct 20 3 Dec 20 Tim WeekesEvents, MetroWest Phase 2, News On Tuesday 13th October, Bristol City Council's Transport Engagement Team showed small groups of people the new access arrangements for Ashley Down train station. If you missed the Ashley Down station tour then we hope these pictures, taken when FoSBR were shown round, will give a a flavour of what's planned! The main access path The main access to the station will be from Station Road, Ashley Down. The busy Concorde Way cycle route runs alongside the railway here, in front of the railings. The path in the foreground links from Station Road to the cycle route and will also be the main approach to the station entrance. The railway runs left to right behind the railings, and access to the station platforms will be round the corner to the right, behind the tree. From here you will initially be able to catch trains in the direction of Henbury or Bristol Temple Meads Transport Engagement staff chalked in the outline of the planned two disabled parking bays. There will be two parking bays for blue badge holders. A person on our tour who lives close to the site was concerned about the loss of parking spaces, which they saw as a potential problem in the absence of a residents' parking scheme in the area. The current rather steep route to the subway, in front of the car, will be replaced by a flight of steps. Ashley Down train station entrance. The path will be widened here. The station entrance is potentially hazardous because train passengers will need to cross Concorde Way to leave the station. The path will be widened here, and rumble strips will be used to warn cyclists to slow down. Concorde Way currently slopes down steeply to meet the station underpass, with poor sightlines. This gradient will be eased, starting just after where the crossing is shown, making both the subway and the continuation of Concorde Way safer and more accessible. Underpass at the north end of the station, seen from Station Lane. This would be the access from Muller Road. These plans are solely focused on access from the Ashley Down side of the railway. The station will be accessible from Muller Road though, via Station Lane and the station underpass. Although this route does not form part of the station access plans, we were told that the station underpass and Station Lane are to be improved as part of the travel plan for Trinity Academy, Lockleaze. Station Lane, looking across busy Muller Road from Shaldon Road. There are plans to improve this crossing to give better access to the new Trinity Academy The crossing from Station Lane to Shaldon Road is set to be improved to allow safe access to this new school, which is around 1 km from the station. We would like to see a new bus stop very near this point to allow easy interchange between bus and train. We would also like to see improvements to Station Lane to make it safer and more appealing. We're grateful to Transport Engagement for a friendly welcome, and for setting this up and marking things out to make it all easier to visualise. The consultation is open until 1st November 2020 if you'd like to comment. This is how the new station could look, viewed from Concorde Way Walk from Avonmouth Station to Shirehampton Walks from the Severn Beach Line FoSBR 25th anniversary – socially-distanced celebrations

le the Clippers are still contemplating what to do about acquiring a third center, they flew here Thursday morning for tonight's game against the Cavaliers without one of their two current centers. Rookie Benoit Benjamin had overslept again. Benjamin, however, had the last laugh, sort of. He ended up making it to Cleveland before the rest of the Clippers, who were delayed in Chicago. Benjamin, who has failed to make two team flights this season, probably will have to pay for his slumber. "I plan on fining him again," Coach Don Chaney said. "I want to fine him more if I can get away with it." This will be at least the fifth time Benjamin has been assessed for being late to practice, missing buses and missing flights. Derek Smith, still hobbled by soreness in his left knee, will not play tonight. Smith is expected to join the Clippers Monday in Atlanta, the third stop on the Clippers' seven-game trip.

In our collaborations with companies in the automotive industry, we often have the important role of verifying the prototype development. We do this for a number of car manufacturers and many times we are involved from start to finished product. In Volvo's work with the latest generation of the XC 90, we participated all the way to tool production, by creating prototypes to verify the surfaces of all the car's parts. We have extensive experience in working with all types of vehicles. We are also involved in the development of smart textiles that can increase and improve the interaction between drivers and vehicles. Built-in sensors in the fabrics measure and detect if the driver becomes tired or acutely ill. The system then receives signals about what is happening and can wake up the driver or alert the vehicle or an external monitoring and control system, so that the danger can be averted. Infrasrtucture We collaborate with the company Composite Design, which is far ahead in the use of carbon fiber and the development of other new materials in laminated constructions. Our role in the collaboration is, among other things, to develop the tools required for the designs to be produced. Because carbon fiber is so much lighter than steel and concrete, it is possible to think differently, which creates completely new possibilities when it comes to building bridges and other suspended structures. The low weight of carbon fiber combined with the strength of the material means that the dimensions can be significantly reduced, making it possible to build bridges in places where it was previously impossible. The light material also places less demand on surrounding constructions, such as foundations and foundation works. Other benefits are increased lifespan and reduced need for maintenance. SSPA (the state's ship testing institute) works to develop efficient marine transport solutions. Some of SSPA's focus areas are increasing safety, reducing fuel consumption and keeping coastal zones clean and vibrant. We have been involved in several of their projects, including developing prototypes of propellers and rudders that will provide increased speed and safety while reducing emissions and impact on the marine environment. We work with several medical technology companies. Mentice and Orzone develop high-tech equipment used to train and further train doctors. The products can be compared to simulators where the students have the opportunity to practice endovascular operations and other advanced surgical interventions under realistic conditions. Among other things, we help Mentice and Orcamp build the shells for the human-like mannequins used in the simulated operations. For Elekta, we make functional models of X-ray and radiation equipment, which will be demonstrated at medical technology fairs. Our responsibility in the collaboration is to produce the plugs and molds that are used in the lamination and to build up the functional models based on these.

Rethinking Food Security By Re-inventing the Cold Storage Chain Editor's Note: This post is part of NextBillion's series on Offline Innovation – one of several topic areas we'll be covering through special series this year. Click here for more details on our 2018 series. With climate change intensifying, food security becoming a political issue and the incidence of food borne illnesses on the rise, the mathematics of feeding a global population on its way to 9 billion can seem like an insurmountable challenge. That's especially true when viewed with the baggage of history and its mandate for infinite growth on a finite planet. Small wonder that so many of us seeking solutions to big, systemic challenges have fallen into the trap of seeking big, systemic solutions. For those working in agriculture in the developing world, and for the innovators beyond, one thing is clear: Looking to industrial scale agriculture to solve these problems is not an option. And it's this realization that has motivated a new generation of agribusinesses to adopt a grassroots, community-centric approach to problem-solving. One key problem is that of food waste. And one such business addressing it is our company, the UK-Italy based agricultural technology firm InspiraFarms. Now in our fifth year, we're on a mission to change the global food industry—one small agribusiness at a time. It's a lofty ambition, backed up by a surprisingly simple approach: Provide farmers and entrepreneurs in the developing world with clean technology to prevent post-harvest food loss, and engage in high-value processing activities. "In developing countries, 40 percent of food losses occur after harvest and early on in the supply chain," explains Tim Chambers, InspiraFarms' co-founder and managing director. "That translates to more than 250 million tonnes of food waste annually—mostly because of inadequate refrigeration and unreliable and expensive energy supply." The knock-on effects are lost income for small operations, lost employment opportunities for the community and higher prices for poor consumers. It's a compound problem our company's founders understand well. Chambers and InspiraFarms' Technical Director Michele Bruni had worked for years in the agricultural aid sector and witnessed first hand how an issue like diesel dependency could snowball. When faced with exorbitant operating costs, small-scale producers are prevented from increasing capacity and engaging in the sort of processing activity that would increase the value of their operations, and ultimately benefit their communities – not to mention the market. With these insights, Chambers and Bruni began looking at ways of increasing smallholder productivity in countries such as Mexico and Guatemala, before determining the solution was simple enough: food safety certification-ready cold storage and processing spaces capable of operating off-grid. The implementation, however, required a little more thought, and a great deal of design iteration and planning. The team agreed their solution needed to be modular, adaptable, affordable, and operationally independent of expensive fossil fuels, deep technical knowledge, or outside interference. After almost two years of research, development and beta testing, we had a go-to-market product that satisfied all criteria, and then some. Our lightweight, modular units are flat packed and shipped ready to assemble. Installation is quick, as is disassembly, meaning clients can move the units easily if needed. When coupled with InspiraFarms' photovoltaic and remote monitoring systems, a client is able to transform their business from a fossil-fuel dependent farm to an energy independent, tech-enabled agribusiness literally overnight. Today, our technologies have enabled 12 small to medium-sized agribusinesses, including Rwanda's GET IT, to grow by accessing affordable finance that allows them to build sustainable supply chains and food-safe certified processing capacity. A text-to-order grocery service, GET IT had estimated it lost nearly 20 percent of its fresh produce due to a lack of cold storage. After adding InspiraFarms cold storage facilities, the company was able to stem losses and significantly increase its capacity. Now, it's delivering more than 10 tonnes of goods per week—sourced principally from local smallholders—and it recently became Rwanda's first ISO 22000-certified supplier of fruits and vegetables. By meeting international standards for food safety management, the company is now ready to take on scale clients such as corporations and service chains, including hotels and restaurants, and to access the lucrative export market. We've seen business results like these with other clients, which range from small-scale agricultural producers and distributors like GET IT, to farming cooperatives and large corporate retail chains and food processors seeking supply chain efficiencies and evidence of social responsibility. "Because trading and processing companies are almost obliged to consider smallholders as suppliers for the future, technologies with alternative financing options like ours have become a strategic advantage," said Bruni. Edgar Cancax, a local vegetable small farmer from the highlands of Guatemala, is another example of how our technology can impact small-scale agribusinesses – and our first test of extended payment terms (two years). After adding a food-safe certified InspiraFarms cold chain processing plant, Cancax reduced losses by 25 percent, grew his staff by 60 percent and doubled his monthly production to over 100 tonnes. Diversifying into processing has allowed Cancax to develop partnerships with three large agro-processors and make valuable inroads into exporting. Cancax is also close to paying off his facility. Currently, this is where we see the greatest growth potential – not only for the company, but also for its clients. After adding a food-safe certified InspiraFarms cold chain processing plant, Guatemalan farmer Edgar Cancax reduced losses by 25 percent, grew his staff by 60 percent and doubled his monthly production to over 100 tonnes. Having helped to create more than 600 jobs in three countries over five years, we have set our sights on the future and the growing need for value chain traceability. With a recent Series-A investment of €1.65 million (US $1.97 million), through partnerships with PYMWYMIC, Factor(e) Ventures, Energy Access Ventures, the Montpellier and Doen Foundations, we are investing in the development of our remote monitoring software, as well as our service offering, which includes technical assistance and interest-free financing. Last year, we were excited to learn that InspiraFarms was recognized by the nonprofit B Lab as being one of the B Corporations creating the most positive overall impact on its customers. And that's a vindication for a company that opted to develop a community-centric approach to solving a big, systemic problem.

The top U.S. general in Europe is looking at options including moving a U.S. warship to the Black Sea and bolstering scheduled NATO exercises in response to Russia's annexation of Crimea, a U.S. defense official told Reuters on Tuesday. A small team of about 10 soldiers from an Army brigade could also head to Europe "very soon" to better prepare for a larger scheduled deployment this summer as part of a NATO response force. "This brigade combat team was already scheduled to be part of the NATO response force going this summer. And we're just looking ... at ways that we can improve their deployment even more," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. NATO said earlier on Tuesday it was suspending all practical cooperation with Russia in protest at its annexation of Crimea, and ordered military planners to draft measures to strengthen its defenses and reassure nervous Eastern European countries. General Philip Breedlove, who is both NATO's supreme allied commander Europe and the head of the U.S. military's European Command, was also "going to look at the full spate of upcoming NATO exercises" to see if there were ways they could be enhanced, the U.S. official said. The United States deployed a warship to the Black Sea last month for exercises with allies. It also increased the number of U.S. aircraft in regular NATO air patrols over the Baltics and beefed up a previously planned training exercise with the Polish air force. The United States also suspended all military engagements with Russia on March 3.

Long days, hard work at governor's school Editor's note: This is the second of three stories about the Piedmont Governor's School for Mathematics, Science & Technology. In the next, alumni will reflect on their experiences. A day in the life of a governor's school student starts early and ends late, but it is an experience that provides college credit, new friends and a lot to learn, students say. "This is just such an experience. It makes you realize you're going to college, and you need to be ready," said Emilia Isa, a junior at Magna Vista High School. Isa is also a student at the Piedmont Governor's School for Mathematics, Science & Technology. The school offers college-level courses to gifted, highly motivated and high-achieving juniors and seniors. Students from Martinsville, Henry County, Patrick County, Pittsylvania County and Danville must apply and be accepted to participate in the program. Governor's school students attend two classes twice a week. Those from Henry County, Patrick County and Martinsville are taught at the Martinsville site in the New College Institute classrooms at the Jefferson Plaza. Those from Danville and Pittsylvania County attend the Danville site at the Institute for Advanced Learning and Research. "You learn a lot, like time management," said Mary Grace Hankins, a senior at Martinsville High School. She said time management is important, especially with extracurricular activities, such as sports, that require daily practice. Isa added that the assignments from governor's school are challenging, and they require focus and time. She said the governor's school gives students an atmosphere closer to college, in which they are allowed to do things such as going to the rest room in the middle of a class without a hall pass. Everyone at is there because they want to be, not just because they have to be at school, said Hankins. Isa said classes at governor's school begin at 7:45 a.m., and each class is around 90 minutes long. Patrick County High School senior John Reagan said he gets up at 6 a.m. on the mornings he attends the governor's school because he lives in Patrick Springs, about 35 minutes away. On a recent day, Hankins worked on a complex problem in calculus, taught by Cynthia Cowley. But this math classroom didn't contain a single blackboard at the front with rows of students struggling to see or pay attention in the back rows. Instead, three large screens lined the room, showing the math problem. Cowley stood at the front of the classroom, writing on a handheld computer tablet with a pen-shaped tool. The numbers she wrote on the tablet appeared on all three screens simultaneously. Through the technology, the students at the back of the classroom can see the problem and participate just as easily as those at the front. The technology is common in the governor's school classrooms. Isa used similar technology in an Introduction to Statistics course taught by Shawn Hickman. Two large screens were at the front of the classroom, and two monitors hung in the middle of the room so students in the back could see what was on the board. Hickman wrote directly onto a computer monitor on a podium at the front of the class. His writing was immediately visible on the screens at the front as well as the television screens. "It's totally new to us," said Isa. Down the hall, Reagan sat in a group with other students, discussing strategies for their year-long research projects. A research course is required for both juniors and seniors, he said. Reagan said he is working on a research project involving the impact of the war on drugs. He said he hopes to find out what impact incarceration has on drug users and society. Many people who have been incarcerated have a difficult time finding work, especially with high unemployment, Reagan said. He added that through his research, he found that employment is the best way for people to become assimilated in society after they get out of jail or prison. In the second year of the research class, students begin a research project that is presented at the end of the year, said Nina Huff, who teaches the course. She said the students first have to find 32 research articles that pertain to research on their topic. She said that is a good representation of "what is known in the field," and knowing that allows students to contribute new information on their subject. As the students read the articles, they are instructed to take notes on each paragraph of each article. These notes help later when the students must write a synopsis of all of the research. Reagan said he was able to use the publication databases available through Patrick Henry Community College. Then the library secured copies of the articles for students through interlibrary loans without charge. In all of these classrooms, students from Henry County, Martinsville and Patrick County mix together, which Reagan said he enjoys. He said he is in the band at Patrick County High School and also participates in several academic teams. Now, when he is at competitive events, he often sees friends from the governor's school on the opposing teams. That was "weird at first" but has become enjoyable, he said. Hankins added that when the students in her grade first began governor's school classes in their junior year, the students generally sat with others from their school. By the second year, everyone mixed together, she said.

Download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2019 Setup File - All Windows PC proprietors should operate some sort of general antivirus defense. For that, customers have a lot of choices-- yet Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free isn't really one of all of them. That's due to the fact that Malwarebytes is not a standard anti-virus defense system, and also the firm states it really isn't straight competing with routine antivirus software. Rather than targeting the basic rabble of malware on the net, the provider mentions it's concentrating on capturing the most recent, very most groundbreaking dangers that antivirus business might certainly not have caught yet. Individuals shouldn't rely upon Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free as their only safety and security plan. This is actually suggested to suit frequent antivirus software, however that does not mean they need to neglect this. It is actually easy to install Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free. The Free Variation Install button is actually included prominently on the provider web site, and when you click that, you'll be led straight to a download webpage. (A few other antivirus providers reroute you to third-party web sites for the free of cost models.). The moment the installer is actually downloaded and install, installation is as straightforward as that of other plan. A single thing to look for: In the last stage of setup, the possibility to "make it possible for complimentary trial of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Superior" is inspected through default. We uncontrolled this to assess the free of cost model. The principal Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free interface-- the Control panel-- presents a series of horizontal bars, each which supplies an other type of information. In the best bar are actually tabs indicating the main features: Dashboard, Browse, Setups as well as Past history. By the end this bar are two hyperlinks advising consumers to generate Malwarebytes user profiles and also upgrade to the Superior version, which costs $24.95 per year. Below the tab bar is actually the thickest and also very most captivating bar: This's colored intense dark-green if the program states you're safe, yellow if you have not work a check in an although as well as reddish if this discovers any malware or even potentially excess plans (Dogs). Under that is a set of 4 slim, white pubs presenting the status of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware's permit, data source model, check progress and also real-time protection. The first and last products aren't suitable to users from the free of charge edition Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Filehippo locates malware put up on your pc yet does not stop malware off corrupting your machine in the first place. The left-hand edge from the bottom bar markets other Malwarebytes items; on the lower right is actually a Check Currently switch that introduces a complete system check. When we clicked the Check Now switch, Malwarebytes notified our company that the malware-definition database needed to be actually updated, despite the fact that the Upgrade Currently link higher in the Control panel was grayed out. On the whole, the user interface is actually colorful as well as straightforward. Our company liked the straight design as well as straightforward illustrations that aid users know exactly what's occurring without coming to be mind-boggling. Unlike the superior model, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free carries out not permit users set up scans, therefore you'll need to personally open the course and also click on the Browse switch each time you want to check for malware. After a browse, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2019 Setup File choice note the dubious products this's located as well as ask if you would love to either quarantine all of them (spot all of them in a secure area of your computer system that Malwarebytes commands), dismiss all of them this time around or exclude them coming from all future scans. You'll probably choose quarantine. If you choose particular things are actually not harmful, you can easily consistently repair them by going to the Background button and also deciding on the personal items. You could then totally delete items from quarantine by visiting the Record tab. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free specifies an amount of functions as well as setups under the Settings tab on the Dash panel. Nonetheless, certainly not all of them are offered to customers from the free of charge version, as well as overall customers perhaps will not need the other tools certainly there. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free performs certainly not possess a quick-scan possibility or even an automatic-update environment. However, there are actually a couple of terrific complimentary tools, available from the Malwarebytes web site, that could be utilized in conjunction with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free. Our favorite free resource is actually Chameleon, a countermeasure versus kinds of malware that try to turn off anti-malware systems on the computer systems they corrupt. Chameleon camouflages Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to ensure harmful plans can not find that. Regardless of whether you can't set up or accessibility Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2019 Setup File, you must still have the ability to manage Chameleon, which will certainly then introduce the Anti-Malware course itself. There's also Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit, a new resource that monitors for assaults that get into your personal computer via software program problems as opposed to malware.

Very effective in the fight against ageing, dermal fillers are playing an ever-increasing role in the global aesthetic and cosmetic treatment sector. And clinics like Platinum Face and Body Clinic near Wollongong, NSW, are finding that more and more Australians are following this global trend aimed at boosting the body's own anti-ageing treatment mechanisms, which become less effective as the years go by. While injectables of various sorts have become increasingly popular as an alternative to cosmetic surgery in the past few years, not all work the same way, deal with the same bodily systems or contain the same ingredients. The first major players in the field were based on botulin toxin and were used to relax specific facial muscles temporarily, lessening the wrinkles caused by emotions like laughing, frowning and crying. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, don't target the muscles, rather going for plumping and adding volume in order to soften the wrinkled and sagging effects of ageing. Instead of addressing the roadmaps left by our emotions, like frown and laugh lines, these look at the ones that don't go away, even when the face is relaxed. These include sunken cheeks and temples, and the deep lines that run down from the sides of the nose to the chin. Fillers are also used for plumping up the lips and lessening the unattractive vertical lines that crease them. Dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid. This acid is used by the body to bind water for joint lubrication and to create a moisture cushion to absorb shock. But it also boosts the production of collagen and stimulates collagen's bonding with another protein, elastin, which serves as its partner in the fight for skin health. All three (TA, collagen and elastin) are produced in sufficient quantities by the body in the earlier years of life, but natural production and supply dwindle with age. Dermal filler treatment is simple and quick and requires nothing more than a topical anaesthetic to deal with any pain experienced during the injections. There's very little downtime, and the effects of a single treatment can last anywhere from 6 to 24 months, depending on the individual. Along with the rise in popularity of dermal fillers as an aesthetic treatment, have come some questions about its safety and its side-effects. Some of these have been attributed to limited regulation regarding the equipment and products used, and the practitioners providing treatment in some parts of the world. Platinum owners and operators Jacinda McKay and Shelley Stevens, a registered and cosmetic nursing specialist, pride themselves on the safety and quality of its medical-grade aesthetic treatments and ensure all equipment, treatment products and injectables which are registered with the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods. However, they stress the importance of a medical history in pre-treatment consultations with their clients; and discuss any concerns the histories raise. They also warn clients that fillers should not be used on inflamed skin or areas where there is (or has been) any sort of skin disease; or in instances where the immune system has been compromised either by a medical condition or because of immunosuppressive therapy. To find out more about Platinum Face and Body Clinic's services, reach Shelley or co-owner Jacinda and their experienced team by calling +61 2 4200 9468 or visit the Non-Surgical, Medical Grade Aesthetic Treatments For The Face and Body | Platinum Face and Body Clinic website to book a consultation online.

Q: Laravel: How to create link buttons on a view dynamically? I'm making a College Administration website where a professor can log in. I have a dashboard, where my dynamically generated button should be placed: (right now it just has dummy buttons!) Generated by this view file, which I will have to modify soon: <div class="container d-flex flex-column align-items-center justify-content-center"> <h1>IA DASHBOARD</h1> <br> <div class="grid2"> <a href="{{ url('/subcode/{subcode}') }}" ><button class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-custom-outline-primary btn-custom">SUBCODE 1</button></a> <a href="{{ url('/subcode/{subcode}') }}" ><button class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-custom-outline-primary btn-custom">SUBCODE 2</button></a> <a href="{{ url('/subcode/{subcode}') }}" ><button class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-custom-outline-primary btn-custom">SUBCODE 3</button></a> </div> Tables in the Database: * *the table iamarks contains the data (student info, and marks) that is to be displayed after /subcode/{subcode} narrows it down to records of just the students that are in the class assigned to current logged-in professor. *classroom_mappers is a table used to map a professor to a classroom with a subject. It makes sure that one classroom only has one professor for a particular subject. the routes currently in my web.php: route::get('/ia', 'IAController@show')->middleware('auth'); Route::get('/subcode/{subcode}', 'IAController@showTable')->middleware('auth'); ...and these are the methods inside my controller: //shows buttons to the user: public function show(){ $subcodes = DB::table('classroom_mappers') ->select('subcode') ->where([['PID','=', auth()->user()->PID]]) ->get(); return view('ia',compact('subcodes')); } //when user clicks a button, subcode is to be generated and a table is to be shown: //it works, I tried it by manually typing in subcode value in URL. public function showTable($subcode){ $sem = DB::table('classroom_mappers') ->where([['PID','=', auth()->user()->PID], ['subcode','=',$subcode]]) ->pluck('semester'); $division = DB::table('classroom_mappers') ->where([['PID','=', auth()->user()->PID], ['semester','=',$sem], ['subcode','=',$subcode]]) ->pluck('division'); $data = DB::table('iamarks') ->where([['semester','=',$sem], ['division','=',$division], ['subcode','=',$subcode]]) ->get(); return view('subcode',compact('data')); } My Problem: To be able to generate the {subcode} in the URL dynamically, I want to create buttons in the dashboard using the data $subcodes. The controller hands over the $subcodes (an array of subject codes which belong to logged in professor) which are to be made into buttons from the show() method. The buttons should have the name {subcode} and when clicked, should append the same subject code in the URL as {subcode}. * *How do I make use of $subcodes and make the buttons dynamically? *How do I make sure the buttons made for one user are not visible to another user? A: * *You can loop your codes to create buttons. Something like this (it's for "blade" template engine): <div class="grid2"> @foreach ($subcodes as $subcode) <a href="{{ url('/subcode/'.$subcode->subcode) }}" ><button class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-custom-outline-primary btn-custom">{{ $subcode->subcode }}</button></a> @endforeach </div> *Since you're using PID constrain in a query (['PID','=', auth()->user()->PID]), you'll get buttons for that specific PID. So there's no problem. A: I managed to find the solution, thanks to Air Petr. Apparently, you can't nest blade syntax like {{some_stuff {{ more_stuff }} }} and it generates a wrong php code. I modified the solution by Air Petr to: <div class="grid2"> @foreach ($subcodes as $subcode) <a href="<?php echo e(url('/subcode/'.$subcode->subcode));?>"> <button class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-custom-outline-primary btn-custom"> <?php echo e($subcode->subcode); ?> </button> </a> @endforeach </div> It generates the buttons perfectly. The buttons for one user are not visible to another, since I'm using PID constraint in a query (['PID','=', auth()->user()->PID]). A: Pass the passcodes array to view: $subcodes = []; // Array retrieved from DB return view('subcode', compact('subcodes')); And in subcode.blade.php, loop through each subcode: <div class="grid2"> @foreach($subcodes as $subcode) <a href="{{ url('/subcode/' . $subcode->subcode) }}"> <button class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-custom-outline-primary btn-custom">SUBCODE {{ $subcode->subcode }}</button> </a> @endforeach </div>

Chemically Modified Hydroxyethyl Cellulose JOUBERT, FANNY (2014) Chemically Modified Hydroxyethyl Cellulose. Doctoral thesis, Durham University. Synthetic, man-made polymers are produced from petroleum, however this activity may well decrease as a function of time because of the non-renewability of the oil. This will result in the decreased production of synthetic polymers with consequent problems to our everyday life because of their ubiquity (food, furniture, containers, electronics…). An alternative could be the use of biopolymers such as cellulose, starch, proteins, amylose and chitin which are extracted from renewable sources. Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer on earth and is principally found in the cell walls of plants. Cellulose presents interesting properties such as a high thermal stability and high strength, however the principal drawback is its insolubility in both organic and aqueous solvents limiting considerably its use in industry. Chemical modification of the hydroxyl groups of cellulose overcomes some of this problem. In fact, hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), where the hydroxyl groups have been modified with ethylene oxide, shows good solubility in aqueous solvents (dimethyl sulfoxide, water) due to the interruption of the cellulose H-bonding networks. Although the chemical modification of cellulose has improved considerably the physical properties of cellulose, the derivatives are usually not competitive against synthetic polymers. Due to its solubility and the presence of the three hydroxyl groups, HEC was chosen as a substrate for chemical modification, with the aim of mimicking the properties of synthetic polymers. The synthetic polymer of reference in our work was poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) because of its solubility in organic and aqueous solvents and sorption properties. The introduction of lactam groups onto HEC could produce a material with properties similar to PVP and this was the goal of our work. Three methods for modifying HEC with lactam groups are reported. The first was the functionalization of HEC with 1-(hydroxymethyl)-2-pyrrolidone (HMP) with degrees of functionalization up to ~0.9 on the primary alcohol functionality of HEC. The functionalized HECs showed markedly different properties to unfunctionalized HEC, such as increased the thermal stability and reduced viscosity. The two others methods led to the preparation of well-defined HEC-g-PVPs using a "grafting from" strategy combined with Atom Transfer Radical Polymerisation (ATRP) and "grafting to" combined with Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain-Transfer (RAFT) polymerisation. The ATRP of N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) from a prior-synthesised macro-initiator, Br-HEC, did not work efficiently; however, RAFT polymerisation of NVP using an alkyne-terminated xanthate as transfer agent produced an 80% monomer conversion with a 1.4 ƉM. The alkyne-terminated PVP was coupled successfully to partially 15N-labelled N3-HEC and the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) was confirmed by 15N NMR spectroscopy. The versatility of the method was demonstrated using poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAAM) which was synthesised using an alkyne-terminated trithiocarbonate as transfer agent with a 90% monomer conversion and a 1.2 ƉM. Subsequently, this straightforward method was used to prepare anti-microbial graft-copolymers of HEC from an ionic liquid (IL) monomer, 1-(11-acryloyloxyundecyl)-3-methylimidazolium bromide which was polymerised in high monomer conversion (70-80%) with some evidence of control over molecular weight distribution (ƉM =1.5). The influence of the chain length of the grafts on the antibacterial effects was minor with a 20 and 39 µg/mL minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) for E. coli and for S. aureus respectively. The MICs were comparable to those measured for ampicillin, which is known as an antibiotic, indicating the strong effect of our HEC-g-P(IL) on bacteria. Faculty of Science > Chemistry, Department of

Antoni Patek and Franciszek Czapek started making watches together in Geneva in 1839. They separated in 1844 and in 1845 Adrien Philippe joined Antoni Patek to form Patek Philippe & Co. Today, Patek Philippe is the last family-owned, independent watch manufacture in Geneva. When Adrien Philippe joined Antoni Patek in 1845, he brought with him the invention of the keyless winding system. Prior to its invention, watches were wound with a key. Patek Philippe introduces the world's first perpetual calendar wristwatch. The complicated movement had indicators that all jumped instantaneously at midnight. The Nautilus is introduced. Designed by Gérald Genta, the watch was ahead of its time. Precious metal watches were most prevalent, and the use of stainless steel for the case and bracelet did not catch on immediately. Today, the iconic design is extremely popular. Patek Phillipe is well known for their perpetual calendar and minute repeater watches, often fetching high prices at auctions. In 2014, the Graves supercomplication pocket watch by Patek Philippe set the record for the most expensive watch ever sold at auction, for $24 million U.S. dollars.

Un faccioso más y algunos frailes menos es la décima y última entrega de la Segunda Serie de los Episodios nacionales de Benito Pérez Galdós, escrita y publicada en el otoño de 1879. El título alude, por una parte, a Carlos María Isidro, a quien se calificaba de «faccioso» por sus conspiraciones para conseguir el trono de España que su hermano moribundo, Fernando VII, dejaba por pragmática sanción a su hija, la princesa Isabel; por otra, se hace referencia a la matanza de jesuitas del verano de 1834, a los que de forma absurda se imputaba la responsabilidad de la epidemia de cólera que asolaba Madrid. Iniciando su acción en La Granja de San Ildefonso a finales de 1832, tras la destitución del ministro Calomarde, la novela transcurre en el último año de reinado de Fernando VII, el comienzo de la guerra carlista y los primeros pasos de la regencia de María Cristina de Borbón-Dos Sicilias. También se describen los últimos días y la muerte de aquel «aciago monarca», que fue el Deseado para unos y el rey Felón para otros, dándole consistencia trágica a la «España escindida», cimentando las "dos Españas", y dejando como legado una guerra civil. El drama histórico se entreteje con el desenlace folletinesco de los principales protagonistas de esta segunda serie de los Episodios: el liberal Salvador Monsalud y el carlista Carlos Navarro, alias 'Garrote', y su mujer, Jenara Baraona; además de «la señorita Soledad» ("Sola" o "Solita"), hija de Gil de la Cuadra; y Benigno Cordero; y el telón final del toque melodramático que aporta Fermina Monsalud, madre de Salvador, al desvelar su secreto. Galdós dio por concluidos aquí los Episodios Nacionales, pero más tarde, a partir de 1898 retomaría la tarea en una tercera serie.

RECOVERY BENEFITS PURE LAB GLOBAL The number of Americans taking cannabinoids for health reasons is in the millions and rapidly increasing. BIOAVAILABILITY TO Total Bioavailability multiples the strength of our products far beyond the reach of competitors. CBD Facts Did you know? Science supports the premise that CBD is beneficial to human health. A growing number of scientists and healthcare professionals are exploring the potential of CBD for promoting well-being and overall health. Their findings are published in scientific and medical journals Our unique, patented technology significantly amplifies CBD absorption into the bloodstream and achieves the desired response by the body. Our ability to produce CBD with patented bio-enhancement technology will fulfill largely unmet needs in the nutraceutical, dietary supplement, and beverage industry Pure Natural Ingredients Quality and quantity are in short supply as the small amounts available are typically of questionable content and low Total Bioavailability. Our patent-protected technology greatly enhances the transport of CBD to the bloodstream and to sites in the body where it can achieve the desired response Why Pure Lab Global? We have created a unique, proprietary hemp cultivar that is known for its copious yield of CBD. We have also developed innovative patented technologies that dramatically reduce the manufacturing time of our products. Pure Lab Global stands ready to produce vast quantities of the highest quality CBD achievable for consumers worldwide Over 1,500 studies on how Cannabinoids affect the body have appeared in peer-reviewed scientific journals. Welcome to Pure Lab Global Pure Lab Global was founded by accomplished scientists committed to supplying the growing demand for phytocannabinoids in the most bioavailable forms possible. We have focused on the applied science needed for maximizing the benefits of phytocannabinoids and other associated super nutrients Cannabinoid Facts What is Total Bioavailability? One hefty word that belongs in every medical marijuana patient's vocabulary is cannabinoid. Cannabinoids (e.g., THC and CBD) are the chemical compounds secreted by cannabis flowers that provide relief to an array of symptoms including pain, nausea, anxiety, and inflammation. These work their medicinal magic by imitating compounds our bodies naturally produce, called endocannabinoids, which activate to maintain internal stability and health. To put a complex system simply, they mediate communication between cells, and when there is a deficiency or problem with our endocannabinoid system, unpleasant symptoms and physical complications occur. When cannabis is consumed, cannabinoids bind to receptor sites throughout our brain (receptors called CB-1) and body (CB-2). Different cannabinoids have different effects depending on which receptors they bind to. For example, THC binds to receptors in the brain whereas CBN (cannabinol) has a strong affinity for CB-2 receptors located throughout the body. Depending on a cannabis product's cannabinoid profile, different types of relief are achievable. This concept is the cornerstone of cannabis as medicine, and the results are so promising that these cannabinoids have been synthesized for legal prescription use. Some synthetic cannabinoid medications include Marinol, Nabilone, and Rimonabant. While these synthetic forms are effective, research shows that herbal cannabis contains a far wider variety of therapeutic compounds. Cannabis contains at least 85 types of cannabinoids, many of which have documented medical value. Products and strains have been developed to deliver larger doses of different cannabinoids, so knowing which types best treat your symptoms is a handy piece of knowledge to bring to your next dispensary visit. The below wheel serves as a resource to determine which cannabinoids may help treat symptoms associated with mood, eating/gastrointestinal disorders, neurological disorders, pain, sleep disorders, and other medical conditions Pure Lab has successfully addressed absorption deficiencies with its proprietary Technology. The enhanced solubility created with this technology sets the stage for greater Total Bioavailability, resulting in maximum desired response. Total Bioavailability means the degree to which an active ingredient becomes available for its desired purpose after entering the body. It has two components: – Blood bioavailability: the amount of an active ingredient that reaches the bloodstream; – Functional bioavailability: the amount that actually exerts its health-enhancing effects. Typically, as much as 95 percent of ordinary CBD is destroyed on its way to the bloodstream. Then, only a fraction of what gets there yields any effects. Without efficient Total Bioavailability, ordinary CBD products are of limited use. Studies show that CBD coupled with our exclusive Technology does not degrade in the stomach, as does ordinary CBD. Also, our patent-protected technology greatly enhances the transport of CBD to the bloodstream and then to sites in the body where it can achieve the desired response. Pure Lab Global and its vastly superior Total Bioavailability multiplies the strength of our products far beyond the reach of competitors. The profound advances made by doing credible science have positioned us to be the global leader in setting industry standards for quality, performance and Total Bioavailability. The implications of our advances for transforming CBD use are beyond calculation. Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid known largely for its muscle relaxant properties. Isolated on its own, CBD is non-psychoactive and it's been reported to be effective in treating seizures, even in young children. CBD is found in both the drug-producing cannabis indica and hemp-producing cannabis sativa. Hemp CBD oil is extracted from industrial hemp, the c. sativa species of cannabis, which produces nearly none of the cannabinoid Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), but does produce some amount of the cannabidiol (CBD). Not All Hemp CBD Oils Are Created Equal Not many cannabis researchers or cannabis professionals will refute the efficacy and wonders of the cannabidiol. It can be a potent and powerful product with amazing therapeutic benefits. However, the ways in which cannabidiol is extracted from industrial hemp plants, then manufactured, concentrated, formulated, delivered or administered to a customer or patient, is largely suspect. Some customers have even reported becoming violently ill from poorly manufactured hemp CBD products, many of which either contain mysterious inactive chemicals or ingredients different than those listed on the label. Hemp CBD is regulated by the FDA as a dietary supplement, and like other dietary supplements the FDA is "not authorized to review dietary supplement products for safety and effectiveness before they are marketed." This is in direct opposition to most modern day medical and recreational marijuana markets. Both regulated medical and recreational markets typically have stringent production and testing guidelines and manufacturing regulations, and these guidlines typically exclude the sale of hemp-derived CBD through medical and recreational dispensaries. This is from the FDA's website: "In late February 2015, FDA issued several warning letters to firms that market unapproved drugs for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of diseases. Some of these firms claim that their products contain cannabidiol (CBD). FDA has tested those products and, in some of them, did not detect any CBD. It is important to note that these products are not approved by FDA for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of any disease, and often they do not even contain the ingredients found on the label. Consumers should beware purchasing and using any such products." A list of FDA warning letters and test results for cannabidiol-related products can be found here. Conversely, the Stanley Brothers, creators of the original Charlotte's Web now manufacture CBD hemp oil under the name CW Hemp. Because Charlotte's Web products contain less than 0.3 percent THC, they are allowed by U.S. law to ship their acclaimed products straight to your doorstep. Many Medical Marijuana Producers Are Producing Consistent, Top Quality CBD, Too Charlotte's Web is not the only high-CBD strain or CBD product out there. Strains like AC/DC, Harlequin, Cannatonic, Sour Tsunami, Ringo's Gift, and many others exist. Since 1996, there have been several medical marijuana markets growing in the western United States. In the region, states like California, Washington, and Oregon created an avenue for seasoned cannabis cultivators to farm cannabis medicines for their patients. Nearly two decades later, these states and several others, including Colorado, are expanding into the country's first full-fledged recreational cannabis markets. Growers in these markets have been producing both high-THC and high-CBD strains of marijuana and merging them into edibles, concentrates, and topicals of all forms to assist customers and patients with their therapeutic needs. These markets are now becoming known for having stricter testing standards than standard produce agriculture, and now half the country's states have some form of medical marijuana program or more. In these markets, medical marijuana cardholders can typically access CBD products containing much higher concentrations of cannabidiol than hemp-derived CBD products, and due to stringent testing, oftentimes purer CBD products as well. When obtaining CBD products through a regulated medical or recreational marijuana marketplace, customer service representatives should be able to display and explain a product's origins, ingredients, and test results. State-certified labs provide these insights, and some even provide full cannabinoid and terpene analysis, too. CBD Works Best Combined With Other Cannabinoids Cannabis contains hundreds of compounds, 80 of which are currently categorized as cannabinoids. CBD and THC are the principal cannabinoids in cannabis, both commonly occurring in the relatively largest concentrations, and they are incredibly synergistic. Embracing the full-spectrum of cannabis' naturally occurring phytonutrients is part of a process called whole plant medicine. This practice is highly regarded in the holistic and alternative medicine communities, existing in stark contrast to the practice of fractionated medicine, a process involving the heavy use processing and chemical synthesis popularized by the pharmaceutical industry. Long before people began hybridizing cannabis to create the highest THC strains to wow judges at cannabis competitions, naturally occurring fields of cannabis most likely contained plants with moderate concentrations of both primary cannabinoids, CBD and THC, along with other naturally occurring therapeutic cannabinoids like CBG, CBN, plus various terpenes, flavonoids, and all other phytonutrients found in healthy cannabis plants. Thanks to Israeli researcher Raphael Mechoulam, the synergies of all these compounds working together is now known as "the entourage effect." While not sanctioned for children because of its euphoria-producing properties, adding any amount of THC to a therapeutic dose of CBD largely enhances CBD's effects. Medical cardholders in many states can now access CBD products with varying ratios of CBD to THC. Everything from 20:1 to 1:1 ratios, even 2 parts THC to 1 part CBD, make for an incredibly therapeutic array of options for patients seeking the benefits of cannabidiol. Hopefully this guide will help you better understand the intricacies and the processes involved in accessing varying forms of CBD, as it continues to grow in popularity for medical treatments and general wellness practices alike.

Whitepaper Focuses on Sustainability of Infectious Disease Surveillance Just as the globalization of trade and travel is rapidly evolving, so is the globalization of infectious diseases and the need for cooperative approaches to detect, prevent and control them, according to Dr. David Dausey, chair of the Mercyhurst University Public Health Department. The outbreaks of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and avian influenza (H5N1) in recent years showed how infectious diseases can significantly impact national economies and exposed the need for cooperation in detecting and controlling disease to protect populations and economies. Such is the rationale behind a newly published paper in "Global Health Governance" by Dausey and eight co-authors from six different countries. The paper, Sustainability of Sub-Regional Disease Surveillance Networks, describes the teams research in Southeast Asia to build and sustain sub-regional disease surveillance networks. The purpose of a surveillance network is to measure the need for intervention, including early warning of emerging events and empower decision makers with timely and reliable information. While effective, surveillance networks face many challenges as they mature, from training to funding. Using the Mekong Basin Disease Surveillance (MBDS) network as an example, Dausey and his colleagues developed a model to enhance its sustainability, which they hope can be used across the board as a guide in strengthening the sustainability of these networks. The Mekong Basin area in Asia is considered a hotspot for emerging infectious diseases (EIDs). More than a decade ago, six Mekong Basin countries organized themselves into a sub-regional network to cooperate in border health and public health surveillance for diseases of shared concern. The paper acknowledges that sub-regional infectious disease surveillance networking is distinct from national, regional, or global surveillance and is an important trend in global public health because such cooperation is organized and governed by member countries and directly addresses their shared priorities. MBDS is one of the longest-standing current examples of self-organized sub-regional infectious disease surveillance networks in the world.

How much do you know about fasting and Ramadan? During the holy month of Ramadan, Muslims practice fasting from dawn until dusk. This holy month is often seen as a time to practice self-control, discipline, reflection and empathy for those less fortunate. The fasting window is during daylight hours, and in most parts of the world, work and schools continue to operate as usual. Some Muslim counties will reduce the typical working hours to allow more rest for fasting Muslims during this holy month, due to late night and early morning eating and prayers. There is evidence from many sources that fasting in general can have positive effects for your health, such as reduced total cholesterol/ HDL ratio, reduced C-reactive protein, and improving insulin sensitivity associated with weight loss (1, 2), and these effects may be enhanced with calorie restriction (3). However for some the non-fasting window is seen as a time to stock up energy, and over-indulgence is also quite typical. Before starting Ramadan it is advised that if you are taking medications, are Diabetic, pregnant, breast-feeding or unwell, you may need to be reviewed by your Doctor. Some Muslims maybe exempt from fasting if they have any health issues that could be made worse or affect their well-being, or others, such as pregnant or breast-feeding women. Ultimately, this will be the decision of the person, but the Doctors advice should not be ignored. Often the fasting can be undertaken at another part of the year if they can't partake during the holy month, or if a few days are missed for medical reasons it can be made up later in the year. Most non-Muslim fasting protocols allow water and zero calories drinks (such as black tea and coffee), however during Ramadan nothing at all is allowed to be ingested. It is very important that between breaking the fast (Iftar) and the last meal at the start of the day (Suhoor), a lot of water (predominately) is consumed. Water is a component of a lot of foods, so include plenty of hydrating fruits, vegetables and soup. It could be a good time to also wean off the caffeinated drinks as often in the first few days of fasting, many people suffer from headaches due to caffeine withdrawal. Ramadan will typically involve consuming many traditional foods, which are often very high in sugar, such as sweet cakes, biscuits, desserts and drinks. These are likely to be consumed to help with rapidly improving blood glucose levels after the fast, however often over-consumption occurs due to hunger and cravings for high sugar foods and drinks. Breaking the fast with 3 dates and water (maybe also with Laban – yoghurt style drink) is a good start, then after prayers have a small Iftar meal which is well balanced with lean proteins, complex high fibre carbohydrates, and lots of colourful fruits and vegetables. Any special dietary concerns should be discussed with a Dietitian and specific meal plans designed. Due to the long fasting periods during Ramadan, it is very common to over eat at the Iftar meal, and then constantly graze throughout the night. Any additional energy consumed, that the body will not need during the non-fasting window, is referred to as positive energy balance and will lead to weight gain. Aim to eat mostly healthy lean meats, plenty of salads and fresh fruits, as you would normally when not fasting. Avoid eating fried and spicy foods, these may not be the best choice after a fast as they can cause indigestion. If you have eaten a big meal, then try doing some light exercise to assist digestion. Also avoid drinking too much fluid at once, spread the fluids out over the evening and early morning, as this can lead to bloating and gastric discomfort or even vomiting if large amounts of fluid are consumed at once. Exercise can be undertaken safely during Ramadan, and in many Muslim countries there are regular annual Ramadan 'games' or tournaments for many sports. These games are usually after Iftar, and may start as late as 10pm at night to allow for digestion of the Iftar meal. If you want to exercise you can continue your usual training regimen, but it is probably best to complete light activities during any fasting period and then more vigorous intense exercise after breaking the fast…and allowing adequate digestion time. If you want specific exercises then you should talk to a qualified trainer. 1. Dansinger, M. L., Gleason, J. A., Griffith, J. L., Selker, H. P., & Schaefer, E. J. (2005).

I cant not post this recipe after making it again this past weekend and talking about how delicious it is……I came across this recipe online somewhere. I loved the colors of the pinky shrimp with the yellow corn and green poblano peppers. It looked colorful and delicious. I held on to it for a while….then shrimp went on sale at the supermarket so I snagged some and decided to try this chowder out! There is a small amount of prep work involved – chopping peppers and onions and peeling/deveining/chopping shrimp…..But the creaminess and taste make up for it. I also decided to throw in some red peppers to give it more color. When chopping the poblano peppers, make sure to wear latex gloves so you dont touch yourself later on and burn your skin/eyes. There is a zing of cayenne and pepper at the end of each bite that lingers in your memory long after you've licked the bowl clean. This is the kind of soup that makes you post about how awesome it is on facebook (GUILTY)! This chowder is PACKED with corn – so if you are a corn-lover, this is for you. It also freezes well so you can put it into tupperware in the freezer for work lunches throughout the week! Prepare creamed corn from one package of frozen corn (or fresh corn, if available). Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium-sized sauce pan. Stir in 2 tablespoons of arrowroot flour to make a roux and cook, stirring, for about a minute until the arrowroot is blended in smoothly. Add one package of corn and a good dollop of heavy cream to almost cover the corn, continuing to stir over medium heat until it thickens up. Add a little chicken broth, if it is too thick. Use an immersible blender (or food processor) to puree the corn, leaving small bits of corn kernels intact. Season with kosher salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside. In a stockpot, melt 2 tablespoons bacon fat or butter. Add onion, celery, and poblano peppers; saute until soft (around 6 minutes). Add creamed corn, the second package of thawed corn, chicken broth, the remaining cream, and cayenne pepper. Add honey, if needed (some corn is sweeter than other corn and may not need sweetening). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer at least 15 minutes. If you would like the chowder to be thicker, remove about 1/4 cup of liquid from the pot and mix with 1-2 tablespoons of arrowroot flour to make a smooth paste. Whisk back into the simmering soup and continue to cook until desired consistency is reached. Add shrimp and cilantro; simmer gently until shrimp are cooked through (about 5 minutes). Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve hot, with a good squeeze of lime juice. TIP: As mentioned above, wear rubber gloves when handling the poblano pepper to prevent the spicy juice from transmitting to your hands. This way, if you touch your face or rub your eyes, you wont experience the painful burn. Take it from someone with experience….

Each of the 27 Posts came together to produce a unique stamp sheet to mark the 50th anniversary of the Commonwealth Secretariat and the role of Her Majesty The Queen as Head of the Commonwealth. The Commonwealth Sheet of Stamps was officially issued on Friday 27th November when the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting opened in Malta. I was very honoured to have had the opportunity to present a framed set of the stamps to Commonwealth Secretary-General Kamalesh Sharma in Malta on 25 November, via the Commonwealth Secretariat. On receiving the stamp sheet, Mr Sharma said: "I am delighted to receive these stamps from the Isle of Man Post Office on behalf of the participating countries which are spread throughout the Commonwealth. The stamp sheet clearly demonstrates the affection they all have for HM The Queen Head of the Commonwealth. These countries are to be congratulated in their efforts to bring this project to fruition in the year we are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Commonwealth Secretariat. In the year HM The Queen became the longest reigning monarch, Her Majesty remains well respected and long may she remain the Head of the Commonwealth." It is unprecedented for 27 independent postal administrations to come together and produce a sheet of stamps like this. The principle of the sheet is that, like the Commonwealth, each participating nation is equal. Participating postal administrations include Kenya, New Zealand, Antigua, Barbados, Tanzania, St Kitts, Tokelau, Turks and Caicos, Ghana, Grenada, Zambia, Tuvalu, Sierra Leone, Falkland Islands, Cook Islands and Tristan de Cunha. It's been a delight to work with our colleagues in all corners of the Commonwealth to bring the stamp sheet, the first of its kind in postal history, to life. It is also an honour that it has been endorsed by the Commonwealth Secretariat. More information on the Commonwealth sheet of stamps can be found on the Isle of Man Post Office website.

Bob Dylan Tribute Concert Benefits The Oral Cancer Foundation Home/Posts/Past Event Ideas & Stories/Bob Dylan Tribute Concert Benefits The Oral Cancer Foundation When Dan Roth's lifelong friend and fellow musician called with an idea to do a benefit music concert—and told Roth he could pick the cause—the decision came naturally: Roth, a two-time oral cancer survivor, chose oral cancer awareness. "It was kind of a no-brainer for me because of how much the Oral Cancer Foundation has helped me," Roth said. "I use their Web site a whole lot." Roth, 36, is a resident of Sea Cliff, Long Island. But he grew up about six miles away, in Williston Park, going to school and playing drums with his friend, guitarist Greg Schochet, now a professional musician in Boulder, Colorado. "We grew up playing music in the basement," said Roth, a drummer. When the boys were in seventh grade, Schochet's father played the music of folk legend Bob Dylan for them. From then on, the boys were diehard Dylan fans. So it's no surprise that when Schochet decided years later to pull the musicians of Boulder together for a themed evening of music, it should be a tribute to Dylan, held on the famed musician's birthday. "I was out there for a visit about a year before that," said Roth. "And one day we sat around playing Dylan songs for hours and hours. He said 'Next time you come out, let's play a gig.' Then he called up a few weeks later and said 'I have a better idea. Why don't we make it a benefit, and you can choose the beneficiary.'" Roth immediately thought of the Oral Cancer Foundation, a Newport Beach, CA-based nonprofit organization whose online forums and bountiful resources helped him through two bouts with oral cancer. Roth remembers well the process of his diagnosis. "I was at the dentist and they didn't really even notice," he said. "But I felt what I thought was a canker sore. And the hygienist said, 'Oh wow, your throat's really red.' And I just kind of blew it off." Three weeks later, the sore had not healed, and spicy food was causing Roth considerable pain. He made an appointment with an ear, nose, and throat doctor who immediately ordered a biopsy. "The biopsy was positive," Roth said, adding that his initial cancer was caught at Stage 3. "He wanted to remove most of my tongue. I immediately got a second opinion, which lead to a surgical removal of the cancer." Roth, who neither smokes nor drinks, was puzzled about why he'd gotten oral cancer—until he learned that smoking and drinking are just two risk factors for the disease. An emerging cause of oral cancer in non-smokers is the Human Papilloma Virus. Unlike the incidence of oral cancer from smoking which usually occurs in the 5 th and 6 th decades of life, oral cancers created by this virus occur frequently in young people. Surgery held Roth's cancer at bay for 14 months. "When it came back, it came back on the roof of my mouth, which is weird I guess–but they caught it so early because I was going every month to get checked. The second time they caught it, it was Stage 1 or less." That time, Roth underwent radiation treatments, which ended in October of 2004. "It's tough to get through the radiation," Roth admitted, adding that he relied on the interactive survivor and caregiver forums on the Oral Cancer Foundation's Web site for support, information, and encouragement. There he was able to talk with others who were either experiencing the same disease issues or talk with those who had been through it before and were survivors. Roth said he's honored that the musical community rallied to his chosen cause. "It was a great event," he said. "We thought Dylan would be the hook that would draw people in—and it hooked all the local bands. Everyone thought it was a great idea. And everyone knows someone who's had cancer. It really worked out well." At least five bands, and a total of 42 performers showed up to play Dylan songs at the Boulder Theater on May 24. All the musicians donated their time and played for free. "The musical community here in Boulder is pretty amazing," said Schochet. "I've played in a whole host of bands over the years, and they all are friends with each other. We've put together a lot of different benefit shows, and I've participated in easily half a dozen of them. The nights are always super-fun. It's not just a regular concert: it's people doing things they don't normally do, in different configurations." Given their history of musical philanthropy, getting the musicians to play at no charge was the easy part, said Schochet, who besides rallying the musicians, secured the venue, arranged for a concession, rented equipment, and took on the countless other projects that go into producing a benefit event. "A lot of the musicians jumped at the chance to come play Dylan songs—I could have got them to come play a benefit for Oral Cancer Foundation with no problem, but the Dylan part just made them want to come out all that much more." Bands included Halden Wofford and the Hi-Beams, Runaway Truck Ramp, Hit & Run Bluegrass, Rose Hill Drive, Jeff Austin & Adam Aijala, and numerous solo, duo, and other acoustic acts. There was even a Dylan sound-alike contest. The event drew a crowd of 500 to 600 people, a large gathering for a Tuesday night. "We sent the Oral Cancer Foundation a check for $3,440," said Schochet, who says he plans to produce the concert again next year. "It was more than I'd hoped we would raise." OCF founder and oral cancer survivor Brian Hill said " These individuals gave of themselves to benefit strangers they will never meet. That type of altruistic behavior isn't something that you find every day." These talented people, and particularly Schochet and Roth, pulled this off on their own initiative showing what can be done if your hearts in the right place. I am very grateful that they chose to associate a wonderful event like this with the oral cancer cause, and the foundation in particular. We can only accomplish the goal of reducing the death rate from this disease if we work in synergy with others. These musicians have furthered that goal, and in the process of giving back, touched the lives of literally thousands of people that have heard about their effort. We can't thank them enough." The bands raised more than just money for the Oral Cancer Foundation: they raised awareness about a disease that strikes all too often, is recognized far too infrequently, and disrupts lives the world over. For that, survivor Dan Roth is happy. Roth's checkups keep coming back normal. And he continues work he's serene about: He's half-owner and graphic designer at Roth Advertising, a three-person company his father started in 1971. And in May, Roth and his wife, Kathleen, welcomed a baby into their world. The little boy's name? Dylan. September, 2016|Past Event Ideas & Stories|
