In one pack of Boar Riders you'll get 3 different boar heads, 3 identical boar bodies, 3 identical rider bodies, 1 weapon sprue, 3 different shields and a sprue of 4 different heads. There will be 27 pack variants available. Simply pledge £15 per set, and tell us which variants you want at the end during the Backer Rewards Survey.
These are pretty heavy models and will retail at £20 per pack when they go to market after the Kickstarter pledges are shipped.
This will enable you to have 4 different heads, hand weapons or shields sculpted to your specification. What's more you'll get 10 sprues (40 heads/weapons/shields) and see your sculpts added to the Satanic Panic catalogue. We will liaise with you after the campaign and have Martin run up some concept sketches. You'll need to give us a description such as '13th century kettle helm, with sharp features, goatee and hooked nose'.

Industrial Self Supporting Corner Tube Boiler With Natural Circulation Cooling
The corner tube boiler is a water tube boiler with natural circulation cooling. This type of design has proven itself in the most difficult of operating conditions. The first corner tube boilers were designed for low power capacities (for lorry engines). Nowadays, corner tube boilers are manufactured for ever higher power capacities and pressures. The advantage of the corner tube design is that not only can it be used for steam generation but also for the generation of hot water, heating thermal oil, and heating or cooling other heat exchangers.
The self-supporting corner tube boiler is erected in such a way that it can be expanded as desired in all directions from its bearing surface. The compact tube system can be completely finished in the workshop under favourable conditions and with continuous quality control. Larger boilers can be divided into separate components and reduced to a transportable size in the workshop. Only a few pressure parts, such as the header and the distributor, are disassembled; these can be reassembled relatively easily at the final location.

Large-scale radiation accidents are few in number, but those that have occurred have subsequently led to strict regulation in most countries. Here, different accident scenarios involving exposure to radiation have been reviewed. A triage of injured persons has been summarized and guidance on management has been provided in accordance with the early symptoms. Types of casualty to be expected in atomic blasts have been discussed. Management at the scene of an accident has been described, with explanation of the role of the radiation protection officer, the nature of contaminants, and monitoring for surface contamination. Methods for early diagnosis of radiation injuries have been then described. The need for individualization of treatment according to the nature and grade of the combined injuries has been emphasized, and different approaches to the treatment of internal contamination have been presented. The role of nuclear medicine professionals, including physicians and physicists, has been reviewed. It has been concluded that the management of radiation accidents is a very challenging process and that nuclear medicine physicians have to be well organized in order to deliver suitable management in any type of radiation accident.

What is an Adversary in the Middle (AitM) Attack?
An Adversary in the Middle (AitM) attack — also called a Man in the Middle (MitM) or on-path attack — allows an attacker to intercept communications en route to their destination. If network traffic is not properly protected, this could allow the attacker to read sensitive data or tamper with the communication.
How Does an AitM Attack Work?
The core of an AitM attack is the ability to intercept communications. Typically, this happens when a user is communicating with a web server or other online application.
To intercept communications, the attacker needs to be able to place themselves somewhere on the path between the user and the server hosting the website or application. Some of the ways that they can accomplish this include:
- Public Wi-Fi: Many people will connect to an open public Wi-Fi network without thinking about it, especially if it has a recognizable or logical name (like “Airport Free WiFi”). If an attacker sets up a malicious Wi-Fi hotspot, the communications of everyone who connects to it will pass through their computer.
- Malicious ISP: All of a user’s traffic will pass through the systems of their Internet Service Provider (ISP) and their virtual private network (VPN) provider if they are using one. If these entities are malicious or compromised, they can perform an AitM attack on their customer’s traffic.
- ARP Poisoning: An attacker on the target’s subnet can use ARP poisoning to redirect the user’s traffic to their device.
- Malware: If malware is installed on a user’s computer or within their browser — a threat known as a Man in the Browser (MitB) attack — the attacker can intercept their network traffic before it even leaves their computer.
What Can an AitM Attack Do?
If an attacker can intercept a user’s traffic en route to its destination, then they can take various malicious actions. However, the actions that are available depend on the security of the network connection. Some of the potential options include:
- Denial of Service (DoS): DoS attacks are always an option in an AitM attack. If a user’s traffic flows through an attacker’s systems, the attacker can simply drop the traffic so that it never reaches its intended destination.
- Eavesdropping: If the network traffic is not properly encrypted — i.e. using an insecure protocol like HTTP instead of HTTPS — then the attacker may be able to eavesdrop on the communications. Some protocols — like DNS — may be unencrypted by default and leak sensitive information.
- Tampering: If a user’s traffic doesn’t have integrity protections — such as digital signatures — in place, then the attacker may be able to tamper with its contents.
- Downgrade Attacks: If a user plans to use a secure protocol, an attacker may be able to trick them into using an insecure variant. For example, the attacker could intercept early traffic setting up an encrypted TLS session and falsify data so that the user believes that the server only supports older, insecure protocols.
How Do I Protect Against an AitM Attack?
Luckily, an AitM attack is a known threat, and many websites protect against it by default. A key part of this protection is using the HTTPS protocol for web browsing instead of unencrypted HTTP.
The HTTPS protocol uses the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol to create a secure channel over an untrusted network. TLS has a few important features, including:
- Authentication: A website using HTTPS will provide a digital certificate proving its identity. A web browser will verify that this digital certificate is valid and that the website is who it claims to be.
- Encryption: Using the digital certificate and asymmetric cryptography, the client and server will create a shared, secret encryption key. This key is used to secure the rest of their traffic, preventing eavesdropping.
- Integrity: The website’s digital certificate will include a public key that can be used to verify digital signatures created by that website. HTTPS traffic will be digitally signed, ensuring that it is authentic and hasn’t been tampered with en route.
AitM attacks can be a significant threat when using vulnerable protocols. Always use an encrypted connection — such as HTTPS or a VPN — when using an untrusted network.

Estimated Capital Expense of US$12 Million for Proposed 3 Tonne Per Day Lithium-ion Battery Cathode Recycling Plant
RecycLiCo Battery Materials (“AMY” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the company’s contractor, Kemetco Research, has developed a conceptual layout for RecycLiCo Battery Materials’s first commercial lithium-ion battery cathode recycling plant with a 3 tonne per day processing capacity. From Kemetco’s analysis and experience with comparative projects, the capital expense is estimated to be US$12 million accounting for the design and construction of specialized equipment. RecycLiCo Battery Materials’s confidence in the operation of the commercial plant is attributed to the scale-up and testing of the pilot plant project, assessing and mitigating risks associated with the transition to a commercial scale operation.
RecycLiCo Battery Materials has expressed interest in commercialization via licensing or joint venture agreements and plans to locate the recycling plant in a strategic location within North America, where it will prepare recycled products suitable for battery manufacturing. During these unprecedented times, the foreign dependency of rare earths and critical metals has turned resource security into national security and the RecycLiCo™ patented battery recycling technology is an opportunity for governments to advance research and assist in commercialization in order to secure a domestic supply of critical metals while promoting an environmentally responsible circular economy in the 21st century’s tech metals race.
“We have always been confident in Kemetco given their experience and recent achievements with ioneer’s lithium-boron project. Our conceptual plant layout brings together the last three and a half years of planning, theory, lab research, pilot plant tests, and optimization,” said Larry Reaugh, President and CEO of RecycLiCo Battery Materials. “Our methodological approach was not an overnight success like some competitors may allude and our first recycling plant will be a demonstration of the RecycLiCo™ Patented Process on a commercial scale as we continue to expand our global reach.”
RecycLiCo Battery Materials looks to upgrade capacity of the pilot plant project and continue testing sample lithium-ion battery material received from battery manufacturers to collaborate with proprietary cathode formulas that could achieve optimal material recovery, such as purity, particle distribution, and particle size, with minimal environmental impact.
About Kemetco Research Inc.
Kemetco Research is a private sector integrated science, technology and innovation company. Their Contract Sciences operation provides laboratory analysis and testing, field work, bench scale studies, pilot plant investigations, consulting services, applied research and development for both industry and government.

That is very helpful for a person fanatics available since it indicates you should use nearly every Ai standards or even later on zoom lens within aperture concern or even guide setting using the P7000, dropping little if any performance (apart through AF) along the way.
Exactly what otherwise can make the actual D7000 this type of helpful middle variety digital slr?

A New-Year blitz of crippling charges and stealth tax hikes will drive up the cost of living for working families by thousands of euro in 2014, the Sunday Independent can reveal.
The onslaught on the so-called 'coping classes' includes crippling Budget measures such as increasing levies on pensions, slashing tax relief on health insurance and a big hike in Dirt tax on savings.
The Sunday Independent has also learned that the health insurance companies will, within weeks, slap their own 10 per cent hike on medical cover – just in time to hit the one in four who renew their policies on January 1.
Even without the hike of 10 per cent in premiums, told to the Sunday Independent by a senior source in the health insurance industry, the real cost of the Government's attack on private health care is becoming clear after Finance Minister Michael Noonan set the level of tax relief on health insurance policies in the budget at €1,000 per adult and €500 per child.
An analysis for the Sunday Independent by medical insurance expert Dermot Goode shows that while the change won't impact children, it will hit those older people with comprehensive cover.
"If you are on a lower cost affordable insurance plan it means a hike of about €39 per adult. But if you are on a mid-range level 2 plan favoured by older people who do not want to be hit with excess hospital charges for hip or knee replacements or a heart by-pass surgery etc, you will be hit with an extra €170 to €250," Mr Goode said.
"For an older couple that's as much as €500 to find.
"Those on gold-plated plans like the old VHI plan D or E are going to have to pay between €470 and €784 each per year just to keep the same level of cover. That is purely as a result of the budget and doesn't take into account the 10 to 15 per cent cumulative increases we expect to be announced before Christmas."
Michael Horan, spokesperson for Insurance Ireland which represents the four main health insurers operating here, says that 1.2 million people will have to pay more for their health insurance because of the Budget change.
It means further stress on hard-pressed householders who last week received reminder letters that from January 1 they must pay the first full year's property tax.
A Sunday Independent/ Millward Brown poll reveals half of voters think the country is still on the wrong track, despite stomaching seven consecutive austerity Budgets.
And six out of 10 people say they are now worse off than they were last year.
In all, 45 per cent feel this time next year they will be worse off while just 14 per cent feel they will be better off.
Since it was introduced three years ago Finance Minister Michael Noonan repeatedly promised the pensions levy would expire at the end of 2014. Instead he made another raid on private pensions. The 0.6 per cent levy rate will be increased to 0.75 per cent for 2014 and stay on for 2015 at a lower 0.15 per cent.
Pensions expert Tony Gilhawley said that in simple terms if a taxpayer has a pensions fund of €100,000, the Government will take €750 out of it in 2014 and another €150 out of it in 2015.
"But you have to bear in mind that he has already taken 0.6 per cent in 2011, another 0.6 per cent in 2012 and the same in 2013. So over the five years it will be in operation until the end of 2015, it will be a cumulative 2.7 per cent or €2,700 out of your €100,000 pension pot," Mr Gilhawley said.
The Government has also raided savings. Deposit Interest Retention Tax (Dirt) increased from 33 per cent to 41 per cent. That will hit some €91.5bn of householders' savings on deposit in banks.
But in a move which passed almost unnoticed, the 41 per cent rate will become the rate of exit tax on investment funds and life assurance policies.
Travel fares on monthly, annual and tax-saver tickets with Dublin Bus, Iarnrod Eireann, Bus Eireann and Luas services will rise by up to 10.5 per cent from November 1. Cash fares, Leap Card and pre-paid tickets will increase by more than eight per cent from December 1. Yet, despite this, nearly seven in 10 feel now is a good time to buy a house and 48 per cent are convinced house prices will rise next year.
But according to the Sunday Independent/Millward Brown poll 57 per cent of respondents believe the banks are not doing enough to help potential house buyers.

08 The Words of a Wise Man’s Mouth
When we open our mouths and speak, we reveal whether we are wise or foolish. Because our words come from our hearts, a wise man is one who has a right heart. He speaks in the fear of God, because the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. The wise man's words have power, not because they are harsh and strong words, but because they are gracious words, like the words of the Lord Jesus.

Mucusomembrane inflammation is common during the treatment of oral cancer by radiation therapy and chemotherapy, and makes repeated application of these treatments difficult. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of the gargle containing ELASE® on alleviating this side effect. Eleven patients of oral cancer (radiation therapy alone: 9 cases, radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy: 2 cases) were evaluated. 5V of ELASE® was dissolved in 500 ml of the T-Caine/wasser, the standard prescription at our hospital (1% T-caine solution: 2 ml, simple syrup: 5 ml, 0.01% acrinol solution: 493 ml). Following the initiation of anticancer treatment, when pain at the oral mucosa appeared, 100 ml of the above standard regimen with ELASE® was given as gargle 4 to 5 times a day. The control group consisted of 11 patients treated with radiation therapy alone and gargle without ELASE®. During the study period, both subjective (bad breath, dry sensation dysgeusia, and pain) and objective (redness, erosion, and fetor) symptoms were evaluated. In the control group, these symptoms were found to be aggravated or unchanged while in the ELASE® gargle group, some patients demonstrated improvement in pain, erosion and fetor.

(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Mykhailo Podolyak, the advisor to the head of the President's Office, is convinced that Ukraine will gradually receive all necessary assistance from international partners, including armored combat vehicles, anti-missile defense systems, and means to support the country's power system.
He expressed this opinion on the air of the national telethon, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
'We will have long-range missiles, we will have armored vehicles of all sizes, we will have both new and old anti-missile systems – there will be enough of them to close the sky. We will have spare parts for transformers in order to have a distribution network that will give us light. We will have all of this. But it will come gradually – that's the key word,' said Podolyak.

He noted that the world should rethink its role and abandon its cautious stance. And as soon as this happens, Ukraine will quickly receive everything necessary for victory, the advisor is convinced.
As reported, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg stated at the Berlin Security Conference that the best way to ensure sustainable peace and security in Europe and the world in general is to strengthen the collective efforts by the West to support Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.

The Cultural Studies keyword at Pitt is “critique”—across traditional disciplinary lines—and that critique extends to the ways that culture has been studied within the university departmental structure. CLST’s interdisciplinarity self-consciously critiques disciplinary formations. The type of cultural studies practiced in CLST, as in many other similar programs worldwide, is not "value neutral," but inclines toward left-inflected social change.
Cultural Studies’ aim is to pose intriguing if often disturbing questions about how power constructs knowledge and to assess subaltern strategies of cultural resistance to hegemonic domination. CLST critically examines not only cultural politics writ large and small (i.e., as experienced in everyday life), but the politics of culture and the cultures of politics.
What makes CLST distinctive among similar program in the US and elsewhere, is that its extensive university footprint uniquely enables it to:
- Sustain a bold and robust internationalism, supported by the participation of well-established area-studies centers devoted to Asia, Europe, and Latin America, whereas many competing programs remain tied to a narrower Anglo-American cultural studies tradition;
- Transcend the contemporaneity of most American cultural studies programs to recognize the role of long-term historical foundations and contingencies in cultural formations affecting lives as lived around the world today;
- Innovate approaches to cultural inquiry and critique that draw on Pitt’s traditional strengths in philosophy, theory, and criticism that have made it stand out among its university peers; and
- Develop interdisciplinary student and faculty research agendas that fundamentally revise current common understandings of cultural phenomena.
History of Cultural Studies
Starting from the early 1960s, centers, programs, and journals have attempted to address new questions prompted by changing power relations and intergroup communications within and among nations since World War II. Among the first generation’s achievements, institutionally centered in Western Europe, were a rethinking of popular culture as an object of serious study, the finer articulation of the relation of base and superstructure, and an emphasis upon the role of culture in the formation and maintenance of hegemony by dominant groups. Later developments included gender and postcolonial critiques, and an insistence upon human agency in cultural reception. In the 1980s, programs and institutions in cultural studies began to be established formally in the US, often with greater emphasis upon pluralism, multiculturalism, and the politics of identity and social difference.
The Graduate Program for Cultural Studies at the University of Pittsburgh was created in the mid-1980s. CLST’s first Director was Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, who before she left Pittsburgh in 1991 for Columbia University, published her famous essay that asked “Can the Subaltern Speak?” For its bold intellectualism, penetrating analysis of subalternity, and fierce postcolonial critique of Western academic complacent complicity in silencing the oppressed, the essay served in many ways as blueprint for CLST’s future over the quarter of century since then.
Spivak wrote later: “At Pittsburgh, Cultural Studies is a totally interdisciplinary effort between the Humanities and the Social Sciences… we have not only philosophy, the various European literatures, Asian Studies, Women’s Studies, Black Studies, Religious Studies, Film Studies, but also anthropology, history, sociology, philosophy of science… in that sense I think what makes a course a Cultural Studies is an assumption (and this just a bottom line) that a culture should be seen as a system of representation and self-representation rather than a unified body of information to be retrieved and reported on and investigated” (Cultural Studies: Crossing Boundaries, ed. Roberta L. Salper [Amsterdam: Rodopi, 1991], 66).
In 2003, during the long tenure of Nancy Condee, Professor of Slavic Languages and Literatures, as Director, CLST became the institutional platform from which the Cultural Studies Association was launched, and it remained that organization’s administrative home until 2013, when it incorporated as a free-standing entity. Other previous Directors have included Colin MacCabe, Distinguished Professor of English and Literature, and Giuseppina Mecchia, Associate Professor of French and Italian Languages and Literatures. Since January 2013, Ronald J. Zboray, Professor of Communication, has been the Program's Director.
Today, CLST continues to incorporate faculty members from departments in the humanities and the social sciences, and from some professional schools in the University. The program attracts students at the University of Pittsburgh who wish to work beyond the confines of the existing departmental structures.

Ibs Bloating After Eating: Bloating as a Symptom
The feeling of bloating varies from individual to individual. While some explain it as a sensation of fullness in the abdominal area, others experience it as abdominal distention. The person might experience tightness, pain as well as some pain. In a family study conducted in the US, about 16% of the population has problem with bloating problems. Bloating ways swelling up with liquid or with gas. It can take place due to two factors; collection of intestinal gas or fluid retention. Bloating can happen due to excessive swallowing of air, tension, diet, irregularity, hormone changes, etc. Let's have a look at the various medical conditions for which stomach bloating is a symptom.
GERD. Gastroesophageal reflux disease can be yet another reason behind these unusual sounds. In this condition, stomach acids (that promote food digestion) spill into the food pipeline triggering chest pain and roars and gurgles from the stomach. Taking in excessive food or one can state a large meal triggers the stomach to launch excess acid. This increases the risk of back flow of stomach acid to the food pipeline and subsequent stomach grumbling noise. Choosing 5-6 little meals throughout the day is the best manner in which to prevent GERD symptoms.
This condition is often triggered due to overindulging, where pockets of air are developed inside the intestinal tract. The pockets are developed due to gas caused by overeating. In many cases, this condition might have other causes too.
Ulcers (open wounds) occurring in the lining of the stomach wall, mostly due to H. pylori (types of germs) infection can likewise activate burning sensation in the lower left rib pain. The discomfort that intensifies periodically is severe on an empty stomach. The start of food poisonings such as gastritis has also been credited to H. pylori infection.
The condition of upset stomach can be described in many ways. It could be repeated watery bowel movements in addition to constant pain in stomach, throwing up, flatulence, etc. Often, the clients complain about a sense of fullness in the stomach, with moderate to severe nausea. Or, it could also be in the form of acid indigestion that gives rise to heartburn. Usually, the main cause behind occasional upset stomach is wrong or irregular eating habits. However, when it happens more regularly, its hidden cause could be something far more serious.
Mint leaves are an outstanding cure for an indigestion and gas. If possible, chew on 3-4 fresh mint leaves after a meal. If you can not get fresh mint leaves, you can go with numerous mint or peppermint items that are readily available in the market.
You're struggling with a more severe case of irritable bowel syndrome and are experiencing a great deal of discomfort, make a consultation to see your medical professional and go over whether it would be appropriate to take any medications together with your efforts to consume a well balanced diet plan. Depending on your signs and case history, your GP might be able to prescribe a medication that can deal with constipation or diarrhoea, or other medications to alleviate pain in the intestinal tract.
Lactose Intolerance: Those with lactose intolerance may experience burning of stomach after half an hour to two hours, after taking in any milk/milk items. Apart from that, other signs consist of gas, diarrhea, queasiness, bloating, and abdominal pain. The intensity of signs changes according to individual tolerance level.
An appropriate fiber rich diet plan will assist in avoiding this issue. Likewise if the person is struggling with issues like Crohn's illness or diverticulitis, he has to go for routine examinations in order to prevent intestinal clog. With proper care, this medical condition can be prevented.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome: Irritable bowel syndrome is a common gastrointestinal disorder where the food travels through the digestion system either really quickly or extremely gradually. This triggers a great deal of abdominal pain such as bloating, stomach pain, diarrhea, constipation, cramping and pain in the back.
The pancreas also play a crucial function to make sure correct food digestion of food. How? Well, they release specific enzymes into the intestinal tract in order to assist in food digestion. In pancreatic insufficiency, the pancreas are incapable of producing digestion enzymes, which causes indigestion, malabsorption and excess gas build up.

The suggestion comes from leading UK organic adviser Lawrence Woodward, director of the Elm Farm Research Centre.
The centre was instrumental in the Prince of Wales’ decision to convert Duchy of Cornwall land to organic production in 1983 and have advised him ever since.Mr Woodward was in Jersey this week to deliver the Jersey Organic Association’s annual Lady Eve Balfour lecture.
He also met staff at the States Farm.
The association first brought Mr Woodward to Jersey in the late 1980s when he said the Island’s entire agricultural production should go organic.Mr Woodward said it was not too late and Jersey would have the advantage of seeing where others went wrong.
For the Island to reap the benefits of premium produce status, society and politicians would have to take a leap of faith.
Jersey produce has a worldwide reputation – with many consumers under the mistaken impression that production is entirely on organic principles – which could, he said, easily be taken a stage further.

Human induced climate change resulting from an enhanced greenhouse effect is probably the greatest environmental threat facing the world today. Specifically, the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide may be classified as the primary culprit. As a result of greenhouse gases entering the upper levels of the earth's atmosphere, it diminishes or breaks down the earth's Ozone layer. With this loss of this protective blanket, harmful radioactive rays from the sun enter the deeper into the earth's atmosphere. This creates a rise in the overall temperature of our planet, along with alterations in the global environment, ecosystems and way of life for the habitants of earth.
The earth like any body in space cools and warms until energy inputs from solar radiation and outputs from natural radiation are balanced. Greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere from human activities trap some of the energy radiating from the earth, increasing the temperature at which the earth creates energy balance. Based on a study by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) done in the early 1990s, approximately 65% of human induced greenhouse gases contributed to global warming. Over 80% of the increased atmospheric concentrations of harmful gases since the industrial revolution have been causes by industrial countries. Due to recent outsourcing and manufacturing market transfers, Asia and Latin America are regions where harmful emissi...

- For many years climate change has become a crucial issue around the globe. The environment has considerably deteriorated by the change of climate: seasons are shifting, the earth's climate is changing, sea levels are rising and ice is melting. Global warming and the greenhouse effect is a topic that is becoming more and more concerning and a lot of research is done in order to examine what the issues are and how these affect the economy (Stern, 2006; CCRA, 2012) but also business industry and politics (Hanley & Owen, 2004)....

- What is the "greenhouse effect?" It is the behavior of solar radiation when it interacts with gasses in the Earth's atmosphere. The Sun gives off a wide spectrum of energy which we classify according to its wavelength. Among the types of energy given off by the sun are ultraviolet (UV), visible and infrared (IR) wavelengths. UV is short wavelength high-energy radiation, visible is mid-wavelength, mid-energy radiation, and IR is long wavelength low-energy radiation. The atmosphere is mostly transparent to UV and visible light, but some components of the atmosphere absorb IR energy on its way in toward the Earth's surface, warming the atmopsphere slightly....

- Global Warming is due to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is a naturally occurring process that aids in heating the Earth's surface and atmosphere. It results from the fact that certain atmospheric gases, such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane, are able to change the energy balance of the planet by being able to absorb longwave radiation from the Earth's surface. Without the greenhouse effect, life on this planet would probably not exist as the average temperature of the Earth would be a chilly -18 degrees Celsius, rather than the present 15 degrees Celsius....

- Global Warming, also known as the Greenhouse Effect, is the constant increasing temperature on earth that is mainly caused by gases and / or chemicals. Throughout society, the issue of global warming has received a lot of attention. Throughout history, there has been a lot of scientific evidence helping to proving global warming. Most of the evidence has been based on the effects of the rising temperature. One main piece of evidence is the global temperature rise. “The 20 warmest years having occurred since 1981 and with all 10 of the warmest years occurring in the past 12 years” (“Climate Change: How do we know?” 1)....

- Global warming (the greenhouse effect) is the increase in the temperature of Earth's weather which has become popular to many people as one of the most important danger in the universe. Discussions about causes, solutions, postive and negative effects have made by human-beings. One of the first subject people learned is that there are several causes of global warming. However, one of the most effective reason is Carbondioxide gas which most come from the combustion of fossil fuels and forests. Another obvious gas is chlorofluorocarbons which is called CFCs, are produced from fridges and air-conditioning machines.... [tags: environment, pollution, global warming]

Hello there and greetings to all who read this article. I hope and pray that everyone is doing well. That is indeed my hope for you. This article was going to be about another topic; instead, it’s about grief and grief-shaming. Grief is a delicate state of being of the mind and heart.
When I say I truly hope you are doing well, I mean that in the most genuine heartfelt way. I want to make it a point to normalize concern for other human beings’ internal wellness.
On February 19, 2021, instantly, upon hearing words that no one wants to hear about their loved one, I experienced a feeling that I’d never felt before.
A feeling I know that many around the world have felt and can relate to. I was suddenly struck with a vast amount of emptiness and deep, uncontrollable sadness as I learned that my grandmother was coming to the end of her precious life. This feeling within was not just for me; a part is for her. The grief I felt for her was that she was such a happy person and enjoyed her life. It made her feel good to give things to anyone she knew because that filled her up and allowed her to do her part. She always thanked me for caring for her daughter, and I wanted her to know how much I thank her.
I am grateful for her living her life to the point of my existence. To meet and know her, to be filled up and prepared by her for this world. I reflect on her telling me how to naturally care for myself and my family spiritually and physically through the earth’s use.
“Just get you some seeds and sprinkle them out there, and they’ll grow.”Susie Mae Barnes
The Grieving Process
I wholeheartedly understand what someone may feel when they’re grieving. I’ve found myself doing my best to remember everything good about granny and what she left with me and in me. Imagining her smile after spending a moment in tears helps me to smile. Doing this helps me to lean towards healing while hanging on to the hope of seeing her again. Now I am fully aware of what so many people share in losing a loved one.
Sometimes there may be sudden bursts of sadness and tears because you dearly miss your loved one. I can appreciate the importance of the bible’s message, “Speak consolingly to the depressed souls.” In times like that, people will need a gentle voice or listening ear. No matter for how long, you have the natural right to weep for someone dear and near. To “speak consolingly” means to talk soothingly, to cheer, to encourage, to uplift another’s spirit with gladdening assurance. Yes, to speak consolingly means to fortify the listener’s heart so that his horizon widens out.
When you share love with someone, it stirs up thoughts and emotions. That same love then causes you to move and take action towards the overall health and happiness of that person. When you fill each other up with love, you become part of a person’s makeup of how they show up in life. People hold those kinds of memories and treasures of their loved ones close to their hearts. Those memories are reflections that may be a source of healing for most people.
I needed to understand some things for myself, like what my mind and heart were and still going through. How can I cope with losing my granny? And why does anyone feel the need to apologize for grieving? I wanted to know why I was trying to suppress my feelings after just a short time. Suppression in regards to how much I may cry and for how long grief lasts.
There are random moments throughout a portion of an individual’s life that their grief will show up. Each person experiences distress in different ways, which is natural and perfectly fine. There is no time frame for being saddened by the loss of a loved one. Each person’s healing process is not the same. There are no set rules to abide by on how to feel when mourning. To me, it is a jolt to the mind and heart that puts you in a state of shock. No one knows how they will react to such a significant loss or for how long.
What is Grief-Shaming?
In those tender moments of being in their most vulnerable state is when I noticed people being grief-shamed.
Grief-shaming is when a person judges another person’s response to someone’s passing when around other people. Grief-shaming occurs when someone is rushed out of mourning and is expected to move on too quickly. People are also ignored when they’ve been down for a while after they’ve lost someone. Some even go as far as to make fun of a person or leave a person while they are grieving. I came across a picture that shows how you never know what a person

Wow! The graphics are super awful, and I actually like playing games like Wizardry 6 & 7, MM3 - VII, Harpoon 3/4, Heores of M&M 3, Warlords 3-4, UFO Enemy Unknow, TFTD, Apocalypse, etc. (They're like Jeff Vogel's games, but with no gameplay...)
Not to mention no base building, no resource gathering?! What's the point of this game? Then again I think that it's from the same people that made Legion Arena which is just about the same game with re-cycled graphics...
I'm sorry you were disappointed by the graphics, but curious as to why. Did you not look
at the screen shots on the game description page before purchase? Or maybe it is the animation you dislike?
Have you tried different screen resolution settings? Maybe you are playing on a laptop,
and that doesn't have such a great monitor?
Not that it matters, but on my old (purchased in year 2000, CRT) monitor, the graphics look okay.....maybe you need to dig out an old CRT to play older games on? Sorry if that sounds dumb, I don't know tech stuff.
I wish I had never purchased the game at all. I went looking for help online, and discovered that back in 2003, many others had the same problems: game speed is way too high, enemies move too fast, no way to adjust game speed.
Just unplayable for that reason alone. You sort of do have resource management, in that captured villages produce new units. You cold look at it this way: it's generally not very realistic to try logging or mining or farming in the wilderness when the forest is full of archers waiting to kill you. That's the P.O.V. of the game: not conquer a big resource region, but rather go in and pacify the natives.
Again, sorry you also feel it was a bad purchase. Maybe best that you go to Google and find a playable demo before buying any Gog game? I'm going to try hard to take that advice myself. This game is CRUSHING in difficulty.

I recently met up with Corinna and Erik in downtown Portland, Oregon for their engagement session at the Portland Art Museum and Hoyt Arboretum. I love how they beautifully blended the art world and the tranquility of nature with their locations for this fun day. I adore the classic architecture of the Portland Art Museum and the clean lines and gold doors make for incredible backdrops. Since Corinna and Erik were dressed to the nines, the elegance worked really well to capture their love.
We then headed up to the Hoyt Arboretum for sunset and nature photos beneath the old-growth forest. Love when love, art, and nature come together to tell a beautiful story. So excited for their wedding this weekend on the Oregon Coast!

Fit an arbitrary sky (image) model to an existing MS
Fitting a Sky Model to an Existing MS in the UV Domain 20may2015 CASA v4.3.1
This casaguide illustrates how to fit an arbitrary sky image model to an existing MS. Along the way it illustrates how to "get your hands" on the raw visibility data in the python interface and how to compute the Chi-squared of the visibility data to your given model. This could be useful if you have a set of source models you would like to compare in the UV domain, but the models are too complicated to be handled by the set of models provided in CASA's uvmodelfit() task. A couple of ALMA 7-m specific points are illustrated along the way.

[Intro music] A translation of foie gras is literally fat liver. The name said it all. Besides serving it as a terrain, foie gras can also be pan-seared. Today we are going to cook it with grapes and the port wine reduction. To create this mouth watering dish, you will need flour, sugar, butter, seedless green grapes, bay leaf, thyme, vegetable oil, red wine vinegar, foie gras, port wine, red wine, veal stock, salt, pepper and curly endive. Start by making the sauce. In a sauce pan, place the sugar, add about 1/8 cup of water. Turn the heat on, on high and caramelise the sugar. The secret of the caramel is to not stir, don’t get the spatula and stir the caramel because you will cool it down and that’s terrible. So, let it cook. You may stir once like this, but that’s it. The caramel is starting to colour, so keep an eye on it. You want to have a nice golden brown colour. Caramel has a flavour, it’s sweet and bitter. So now I am going to deglaze with the port wine. Reduce the port wine by half. When the port wine has reduced by half, then add the red wine. And reduce the liquid by half again. Then add the veal stock, the bay leaf and the thyme sprig. Bring the sauce to a boil and reduce again by half. Make the dressing. Place some salt and pepper in a bowl. Add the red wine vinegar. Whisk and add the oil and reserve the vinegar. Slice the foie gras. For this dish today, we need only 2 slices. As I intend to use the rest to make a terraine. Cut the slices diagonally. So the red here is the blood vessel from the liver, so that’s normal. Place the slices on a plate. And reserve the rest. Season the slices with salt and pepper on both sides. The sauce has well reduced. Let’s have a look. You see, its coating the back of the spoon nicely. So now, remove the bay leaf and the thyme. And add the grapes. Leave the sauce on low heat and cook the foie gras. In a dry, clean pan; foie gras is very rich in fats so we do not need to start with vegetable oil or butter to sauté the foie gras. Add the flour over the foie gras. Drench the foie gras into the flour on both sides. Heat your pan on medium high heat without any fat in the pan. Then when the pan is very hot, add the foie gras, but first tap the foie gras to remove any excess of flour. You can see the fat melting down. Remember I told you- foie gras means fat liver, now look at the pan. You understand now, why? Then remove the slices and place them on absorbent paper to absorb the excess of fat and finish the sauce. If your sauce has reduced too much, and you think it’s a bit too thick, then add a dash of water to extend it. Bring the sauce to a boil. Then leave it on low heat and melt the butter. So you want to incorporate the butter. You don’t want to leave the butter just melting down because the fat will float on top of the sauce. So you want to incorporate it into the sauce. When you melt the sauce with butter, and it’s a last step in sauce making, it allows to make the sauce more shiny. It thickens the sauce and also it cuts off the little acidity from the sauce from the wine reduction. So it makes the taste smooth in the mouth and pleasant. Then serve the foie gras. Let’s take everything to the table. Season the salad. Break larger leaves into bite size. Curly endives will bring bitterness to the dish. So it will balance the sweetness of the sauce and the fat of the liver. So it will be a good balance. Toss the salad. And garnish your plate. I like to use my fingers for that. Get a little bit of volume. Then add the sauce. About 5 grapes per person. And add the foie gras. Garnish with fresh herbs. So I am going to be using some chive. Cut it diagonally and add it over the foie gras. Serve the foie gras immediately. And enjoy! Pan seared foie gras with port wine and green grapes. Bon appétit!

Launch of two major African landscape initiatives:
AFR100: Restoring 100 million hectares of degraded and deforested landscapes in Africa by 2030 and Africa Resilient Landscape Initiative
African ministers will share their experiences and results from implementing landscape-level initiatives in their countries. An international perspective on resilient landscapes will be given by WRI and the World Bank.
This assessment will be followed by an announcement of commitments by African leaders in terms of the numbers of hectares covered and households supported by the Resilient Landscape Initiative.
Leaders from African countries will also announce a major new initiative to restore forests and agricultural lands. The AFR100 is a pan-African, country-led restoration effort to bring 100 million hectares of degraded landscapes in Africa under restoration by 2030.
The launch event will feature a number of African government ministers as well as prominent representatives from development banks, bilateral donors and impact investors, who will announce financial support for investments in restoration activities in African landscapes.
…thank you for reading this story. Our mission is to make them freely accessible to everyone, no matter where they are.
We believe that lasting and impactful change starts with changing the way people think. That’s why we amplify the diverse voices the world needs to hear – from local restoration leaders to Indigenous communities and women who lead the way.
By supporting us, not only are you supporting the world’s largest knowledge-led platform devoted to sustainable and inclusive landscapes, but you’re also becoming a vital part of a global movement that’s working tirelessly to create a healthier world for us all.
Every donation counts – no matter the amount. Thank you for being a part of our mission.

Painting The Poetic Landscape
3-Day Studio Workshop in Pastel & Oil with Barbara Jaenicke
March 15, 16 & 17, 2019
Once you learn the mechanics of painting the landscape, it’s time to learn how to add the magic…the poetry. We’ll examine the difference between paintings that merely contain elements of the landscape, and those that convey a distinct visual message… and how to gain the skills necessary to accomplish this.
We’ll cover some methods that will help you develop a strong composition and edit unnecessary details that detract from the emotion you want to convey. We’ll also address how to make every stroke count, considering the particulars of how you apply pigment to surface and how the quality of the application will contribute to your painting’s message.
Each day of the workshop will begin with a demonstration followed by students working on a specific painting exercise for the remainder of the day. Instructor demos will include both oil and pastel. Students will receive plenty of individual help from the instructor at the easel during their painting time.
This workshop is open to all levels, although artists with at least some basic painting experience will benefit most.

CAPTURING LUMINOUSITY IN A PAINTING
Acrylic, Watercolor, & Oil painting Workshop with Betty Carr - May 29, 30, 31
Learn to create an impressionistic painting in watercolor, acrylics and oil paints. We'll primarily be painting in watercolor and oil but students can work their favorite medium. Often times, in my workshops, students bring their favorite medium knowing that I instruct in all three, Oil, Watercolor and Acrylic. Bring in your favorite landscape and skyscape photos. I will have some photos for you as well. E-mail me if you have any questions @ [email protected]
This workshop will cover the basics of color relationships, value, composition and characteristics of light along with discovering techniques in creating dynamic paintings. Throughout the workshop participants will gain confidence in painting skills using spontaneous brushwork while exploring personal artistic directions and observing daily demonstrations. Let’s discover the “how to’s” of producing great paintings with sound design through painting and visualizing new and challenging subject matter. Exciting techniques will be demonstrated in order to produce luminous landscapes. We'll also be incorporating painting skyscapes in our painting session. The brush stroke will be emphasized in understanding the idea of creating the illusion of form in a painting. While using fresh and painterly brushwork, confident, expressive paintings will be developed. Learn how to handle edges and temperatures of color; mass and organize darks & lights and incorporate value sketches in your work. Carr’s passion for art and enthusiastic, spirited teaching style makes this workshop a fantastic and inspiring experience filled brave directions for future paintings.

The Relationship between POC Export Efficiency and Primary Production: Opposite
Accurate estimation of particulate organic carbon (POC) export efficiency in the euphotic layer is essential to understand the efficiency of the ocean’s biological carbon pump, but field measurements are difficult to conduct and data are sparse. In this study, we investigated the relationship between POC sinking export efficiency and ocean net primary production (NPP) in the euphotic layer of the northern South China Sea (NSCS), with the help of high spatiotemporal coverage satellite-derived NPP. Annual mean POC export efficiency in euphotic zone is 34% for the shelf areas and 24% for the basin of the NSCS in the context of satellite-derived 16-day-composited NPP. Similar to what is generally observed in the global ocean, the POC export efficiency on the shelf areas appears to be strengthened with the increase of NPP. However, in the basin areas, the opposite relationship is observed. That is, the POC export efficiency significantly decreases with the increase of NPP. Seasonal decoupling between NPP and POC export, phytoplankton size structure, grazing by zooplankton, and dissolved organic carbon export might account for the observed negative relationship between the POC export efficiency and NPP in the euphotic layer of basin region. System comparison between shelf and basin would be helpful to promote understanding of the regulation mechanism of POC export in the tropical marginal seas.
Figure 1. Correlations between POC export efficiency (EFin_situ) and NPP in euphotic layer. (a) for shelf areas; and (b) for basin region. Black lines are the

Introducing the Advanced Armament Corp. 300 AAC Blackout (300BLK). This system was developed to launch 30 caliber projectiles from the AR platform without a reduction in magazine capacity and compatible with the standard bolt.
Full power 115-125 grain ammunition matches the ballistics of the 7.62x39mm AK, and eclipses 5.56mm with much higher-mass projectiles for a more dramatic effect on the target. Or choose subsonic cartridges for optimal use with a sound suppressor - 220 grain Sierra OTM (open-tip match) bullets vastly outperforms a 9mm MP5-SD in penetration and long range accuracy.
Ammo and brass prices are low - Remington 115 grain UMC ammo is $12.99 a box MSRP - and it is not bare bones. It has waterproofed primers, crimped and cannelured open-tip match bullets, and a low-drag design.
At 300 meters, 300 BLK has 16.7% more energy than 7.62x39mm. Max effective range, using M4 military standards for hit probability, is 440 meters for a 9 inch barrel, and 460 meters for a 16 inch barrel. 300 BLK from a 9 inch barrel has the same energy at the muzzle as a 14.5 inch barrel M4, and about 5% more energy at 440 meters - even though the barrel is much shorter.

Why Everything You Know About Money Lenders Is A Lie
People who require cash for personal need register as borrowers with i-LEND and fill in the enrollment type. Those with foreclosures, bad fico scores, or bankruptcies on the record are not prone to get approval for real-estate loans. Underwriting the apply for investors shopping for hard cash loans. A series of early in the day measures, particularly imposing a 4 percent monthly rate of interest on all borrowers, had been implemented in-may 2015.
Pastor Jolene Ong, who’s the president of organization, said she views an equal amount of people who’ve borrowed from licensed and unlawful moneylenders. Again, personal money loans will cost more and are combined with more burdensome terms. While the idea of an exclusive cash loan is not at all hard, three elements are needed for financing of this nature to transpire: a debtor, a lender, and a lot of paperwork.
The model additionally describes why poor appropriate institutions raise the prevalence of informal finance in certain areas and minimize it in other people, why economic market segmentation persists, and exactly why informal interest levels can be very adjustable inside the same sub-economy. However, if you are prepared to mitigate possible risks and use the opportunities that prove, becoming a personal cash loan provider may justify your consideration.
Tough cash loan providers have various requirements for the homework procedure, but most of the time, origination of commercial loans will need many comprehensive list. The full total fees imposed by a moneylender on any loan, consisting of interest, belated interest, upfront administrative and late charge additionally cannot go beyond a quantity equivalent to the main for the loan.
Additionally, when you have made the state decision to start your private lending business, you will have to comprehend the precise steps of how to start off. North Coast Financial and its own affiliates have actually funded over $750 million in hard cash real estate loans in California. For anyone whom might unfamiliar with the idea of an exclusive cash lender, him or her lend their very own capital with other investors or professionally handled property funds, while securing stated loan with home financing against property.
If you receive flyers, SMSes, e-mails or other designs of adverts that are not permitted, these would either be from licensed moneylenders operating in breach of this advertising restrictions, or from unlicensed moneylenders. In poor countries around the globe, there are most small businesses being financed by moneylenders.
In some instances, it may possibly be worthwhile for the borrower to cover these excessive prices so that you can secure the offer if they can still generate benefit from the project. The moneylender cannot charge on quantities which can be outstanding however Money Lender Singapore yet as a result of be paid back. Tough cash is your way to obtain financing whenever banks aren’t an alternative or the loan is required in a brief period of time.

International Conference on Materials Science and Research
November 16-18, 2017 Dubai, UAE
High Temperature Materials Development for Power Plant used for Electricity Generation
Loughborough University, UK
Substantial research has been done in recent decades to improve on the basic first choice materials for modern power plant for the production of electricity. Two basic technologies will be reviewed: fossil fuel fired plant; and nuclear plant.
For fossil fired plant the most extreme conditions are to be found in the super heaters and top-end boilers. Materials for this application require high temperature (650°C) strength, oxidation resistance, good thermal conductivity, and low thermal expansion. High alloy ferritic steels with 9-12% Cr are used with grade names such as P91 and P92, HT9, or 1.4914. Development has centred on providing better high temperature strength. This has demanded the use of strong carbide forming elements such as Nb and V, and solution strengthening elements such as Mo and W, but higher carbon is avoided because of weldability issues. High nitrogen combines with strong carbide formers to form Z phase, which, along with sigma phase, limits the stress rupture life. This situation can be improved by redistributing the Z phase or other very stable phases such as HfC, in very fine particulate form, producing very high creep life materials. Advanced heat treatments can also improve creep strength in the ferritic steels. Higher temperatures than 650°C are now being considered, and nickel based alloys, such as IN 618 and 740 are the only materials which will offer the combination of high temperature strength and corrosion resistance required.
Nuclear plant that have undergone the most extensive materials research in recent times are: 1) the light water fission reactors; and 2) fusion tokamak systems.
The light water reactors consist of Zircaloy-clad uranium or plutonium fuel in high pressure water that is contained within a mild steel pressure vessel. These materials have generally performed well in the light water reactors, although there have been some concerns to limit the phosphorus levels in the pressure vessel steels to below 0.001% to prevent embrittling radiation-induced grain boundary phosphorus segregation. Copper precipitation during irradiation at operating temperatures of 300°C has also caused some embrittlement problems. The steam generators have generally relied on Alloys 600 and 690 nickel based alloys. In recent years an alloy more resistant to inter granular stress corrosion cracking, Alloy 625, has been employed.
Fusion reactors present perhaps the most formidable conditions for materials of any of the currently considered power plant systems. The first w all constructional material in the test reactor ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) will eventually be a ferritic steel based on the 9% Cr composition of 1.4914 or P92. One materials development that has accompanied the development of ITER is the production of the worldʼs first reduced activation steel, Eurofer97, which has the long half-life radioactive elements, Co, Ni, Nb and Mo removed. Another development is a novel heat treatment for this steel which reduces the DBTT to acceptably low temperatures (≤ -20°C).
Professor Roy Faulkner (Loughborough Materials Ltd) has been involved with nuclear reactor materials research for almost three decades. He was employed as a consultant to UKAEA, Harwell from 1980-90, and has led are search group interested in nuclear reactor materials at Loughborough University since 1990, with funding support from Rolls Royce Naval Marine, EDF, Magnox, EPSRC, and Oak Ridge National Laboratories. His interests are in breeder blanket ferritic ODS steel development for fusion, radiation-induced grain boundary segregation of P in Pressure vessel steels, and radiation induced chromium depletion in austenitic steels. Non- irradiation based interests, but still relevant to the current project proposal, are thermally induced chromium depletion modeling and experimental validation in Alloys 600 and 690, modeling and validation of micro structural evolution in ferritic and austenitic steels, and nickel base alloys, and its relation to creep and fracture toughness properties in these alloys. His overall mission is to provide, by modelling, a better understanding of micro structural changes occurring in high alloy steels and nickel based alloys in irradiation and high temperature environments. This mission is supported by a strong experimental expertise in high resolution microscopy techniques, most of which are available in the Loughborough Materials Characterisation Centre. He is Past-President of the East Midlands Metallurgical Society, Chairman of the IOM3 Publications Committee, and past Chairman of the IOM3 Younger Members Committee. He is also Past-Chairman of the Midlands Microanalysis Group.

Michelle Howard writes movingly about what it means to have a piece of nature within a town, especially for children [Voices, “Saving Elings Park South,” 10/29/09]. As a neighbor of Elings Park North, I would like to complement her article with a statement about how enjoyable a quiet piece of semi-developed land can be for children and adults.
Elings Park North can be crowded and noisy. I don’t enjoy it when it is; not as a neighbor subjected to the often poorly controlled amplified music of events held at Godric Grove, nor as a visitor when there’s not a single field available for children to just run around, fly kites, kick a ball, or play with the many happy dogs running freely. However, there are some blessed afternoons, when the park is wonderfully lazy-slightly inhabited, but quiet-an oasis of wide open green space for young imaginations and bodies to spread out, protected by peaceful chaparral-covered hills. Not for long, perhaps, if Elings Park North development is approved.
In its place will be nonstop activity: a new hillside amphitheater, a 13,000-square-foot community center, a lighted multi-use sports arena field, to name just a few of the “improvements” planned for this park. The Elings administration wants their park to be regional; to be used by people from Ventura to Santa Maria, with, besides an increase of visitors due to all the new facilities, 12 events per year hosting a thousand people or more. Increased traffic, noise, and evening light pollution affecting a large swath of Santa Barbara are inevitable should they get permission to proceed. All this under the guise of providing more opportunities for young people and families.
How about the opportunity to enjoy some quiet and make one’s own fun? – Carol Millar

Panhandling Ordinance Passes Commision | VideoJoel Porter | 10/9/2012
On Tuesday evening, the Bismarck city commission passed an ordinance to discourage panhandling.
The new law states that people asking for money could face a $50 fine if they violate any of the following:
-Within 20 feet of a bus stop
-Within 20 feet of a crosswalk
-On any median in a city street
-On any bridge or tunnel located on or across a public roadway
-Within 20 feet of a public restroom
-In a city park
-Anywhere in downtown Bismarck
-Within 100 feet of a school or playground when children are present
-Within 20 feet of an outdoor dining or shopping area
-Within 20 feet of an ATM
-Panhandling on private property after being asked to leave
Those who aggressively panhandle by threatening or intimidating people will be arrested on a Class B misdemeanor.
Although commissioners unanimously passed the reading, they say they are sympathetic to the plight of people who are jobless or homeless.
"We can`t judge the human condition. We don`t know what`s prompting people to be in the street asking for help. Some of them legitimately need a hand from somebody," commissioner Mike Seminary said.
Panhandlers are not allowed in city parks or downtown.
Bismarck police officers say they`ll enforce the law on a complaint basis.

To understand the public backlash against the NCTM math programs of the1990s, one needs to understand some of the mathematical shortcomings of these programs. The mathematics books and curricula that parents of school children resisted shared some general features. Those programs typically failed to develop fundamental arithmetic and algebra skills. Elementary school programs encouraged students to invent their own arithmetic algorithms, while discouraging the use of the superior standard algorithms for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Calculator use was encouraged to excess, and in some cases calculators were even incorporated into kindergarten lesson plans. Student discovery group work was the preferred mode of learning, sometimes exclusively, and the guidelines for discovery projects were at best inefficient and often aimless. Topics from statistics and data analysis were redundant from one grade level to the next, and were overemphasized. Arithmetic and algebra were radically de-emphasized. Mathematical definitions and proofs for the higher grades were generally deficient, missing entirely, or even incorrect. Some of the elementary school programs did not even provide books for students, as they might interfere with student discovery. Written and published criticisms from many sources, including mathematicians, of specific mathematics programs were widespread in the 1990s and reinforced the convictions of dissatisfied parents.70
But not everyone viewed the near absence of the standard algorithms of arithmetic in NCTM aligned books as a shortcoming. Some prominent educational researchers were explicit in their opposition to the teaching of algorithms to children. An article in the 1998 Yearbook of the NCTM entitled, The Harmful Effects of Algorithms in Grades 1-4 by Constance Kamii and Ann Dominick provides examples. Citing earlier education research, the authors wrote, "By the 1980s, some researchers were seriously questioning the wisdom of teaching conventional algorithms," and then listed examples of such research. Tracing the history of this line of inquiry they added, "Some investigators went further in the 1990s and concluded that algorithms are harmful to children," with examples provided. Elaborating, they wrote:
Piaget's constructivism, and the more than sixty years of scientific research by him and others all over the world led Kamii to a compelling hypothesis: Children in the primary grades should be able to invent their own arithmetic without the instruction they are now receiving from textbooks and workbooks. This hypothesis was amply verified...
Kamii co-authored another article in the 1999 Yearbook of the NCTM in which similar conclusions were reached about the algorithms for the arithmetic of fractions.71
Opposition to conventional arithmetic algorithms was not restricted to academic researchers. Similar convictions were held by teacher trainers with substantial influence. In a 1994 article entitled, Arithmetic: The Last Holdout, Marilyn Burns wrote:
I am a teacher who has embraced the call for change completely. I've made shifts in my teaching so that helping children learn to think, reason, and solve problems has become the primary objective of my math instruction...I do not give timed tests on basic facts. I make calculators available for students to use at all times. I incorporate a variety of manipulative materials into my instruction. I do not rely on textbooks because textbooks, for the most part, encourage "doing the page" rather than "doing mathematics."72
Parents of school children in the 1990s were directly confronted by policies based on these ideas. For example, the Los Angeles Times reported in 1997:
One missionary in the Reform cause is consultant Ruth Parker, who rejects long division and multiplication tables as nonsensical leftovers from a pre-calculator age. She urges audiences to "let kids play with numbers," and they will figure out most any math concept. Parker has spoken before 20,000 people over the last six months at the behest of school districts.73
Parents who worried that their children were getting unsound educations from NCTM aligned mathematics programs did not give much credence to education research findings or the advice of education experts, and most mathematicians didn't either. Perhaps the general attitude of parents was best captured by Jaime Escalante, the nationally famous mathematics teacher immortalized in the film Stand and Deliver, when he said, "whoever wrote [the NCTM Standards] must be a physical education teacher.'' 74
Sifting through the claims and counterclaims, journalists of the 1990s tended to portray the math wars as an extended disagreement between those who wanted basic skills versus those who favored conceptual understanding of mathematics. The parents and mathematicians who criticized the NCTM aligned curricula were portrayed as proponents of basic skills, while educational administrators, professors of education, and other defenders of these programs, were portrayed as proponents of conceptual understanding, and sometimes even "higher order thinking." This dichotomy is implausible. The parents leading the opposition to the NCTM Standards, as discussed below, had considerable expertise in mathematics, generally exceeding that of the education professionals. This was even more the case of the large number of mathematicians who criticized these programs. Among them were

Thin trees clung to them, and when the wind blew yellow leaves shook loose and scattered like the rain that was occasionally falling. […]

Cass Community Social Services (Cass) and Ford Motor Company Fund recently unveiled the second piece of their Ford Mobile Farm project collaboration: the Ford Freight Farm, a 40 ft. shipping container that grows nutritious food hydroponically.
Cass -- a Detroit, Mich. nonprofit dedicated to providing area residents with food, housing, health services and job training -- is housing the Ford Freight Farm in a shipping bay at its World Building headquarters in Detroit. A small space has been developed, creating a teaching area for school classes, volunteers and others.
The Ford Fund and Cass are longtime collaborators on community projects, including the Cass tiny homes neighborhood.
The 40 ft. freight container is equipped with LED lighting to enable seeds to sprout and vegetables to grow. The indoor farm operates without the use of pesticides, sunlight or soil. It also utilizes 90% less water than normal. Hundreds of vertical towers house produce that is fed by water infused with nutrients. The container has the growing capacity of up to two acres of land and will produce up to 52 harvests per year. The unit will be partially powered by solar panels to reduce the environmental impact and offset operating costs.
“This is urban gardening at its best because we can grow in every season of the year, and it delivers fresh produce farm to table in half an hour,” Cass executive director Faith Fowler said.
Cass is currently growing lettuce, greens and herbs that will be utilized in the nonprofit’s community kitchen, which serves more than 700,000 meals each year. The growth cycle for current plant varieties (lettuce, mustard greens, basil, Swiss chard and kale) is approximately four to five weeks from seed to mature plant (ready for harvest). Harvests will be staggered, allowing Cass to continually start growing new plants.
In addition to providing fresh, healthy produce to its community kitchen, the Ford Freight Farm will also provide some part-time employment opportunities for adults with development disabilities. Beginning in 2019, produce will be sold to area restaurants to create an income stream to help support the freight farm.
In March 2018, Ford Fund and Cass unveiled the first part of the Ford Mobile Farm project, introducing the mobile piece of the project; a F-150 pickup truck with a garden bed and glass geometric cover that visits local schools to teach healthy eating habits and provide hands-on learning opportunities for children. The Mobile Farm school program runs in the spring and fall seasons.
“The Ford Mobile Farm project is a product of young people at Ford applying new solutions to one of the oldest and most systemic challenges in society: the issue of food insecurity,” said Jim Vella, president of the Ford Motor Company Fund, the philanthropic arm of Ford Motor Co. “We are proud to expand our partnership with Cass Community Social Services with such an exciting and innovative project and look forward to the positive impact the Ford Mobile Farm will have within the community for generations to come.”

After dealing with ongoing issues from its 10-year-old chlorine gas system, Chandler Heights Citrus and Irrigation District switched to the Accu-Tab® tablet chlorination system from PPG Industries to reduce costs, improve safety and minimize maintenance and liability.
Located about 30 miles southeast of Phoenix, the Chandler Heights system was originally designed for irrigating citrus groves. Today, it serves 786 residential connections and a few remaining citrus operations over a two-square-mile area. Three wells feed into two tanks, with multiple chlorine injection points. Average treatment rate is 1 mgd, with a peak rate of 1.3 mgd.
“We had continuous problems with the gas injector filter clogging, and we also had to rebuild the gas regulator about every six months at a cost of $728 just for parts,” said Gene Rose, project manager for E2 Consulting Engineers, which designs and manages operations for the Chandler Heights system. “We were also facing higher gas transportation costs, and safe storage and operation was an ongoing concern.”
E2 began evaluating alternative systems, looking at liquid bleach and the Accu-Tab calcium hypochlorite system. After determining that a liquid bleach system had increased safety and environmental regulations and larger storage requirements, E2 selected the Accu-Tab PowerPro® FM3150 system.
“We liked the Accu-Tab system’s operating simplicity and safety,” said Rose. “It also costs less to operate and maintain, and we can use a Level II certified operator to save about $5 an hour in labor costs. In addition, we could install the system ourselves to further reduce costs.”
The NSF-listed Accu-Tab system combines a simple, patented chlorinator with slow-release calcium hypochlorite tablets to provide consistent and controllable chlorine dosages regardless of size and demand. The Accu-Tab PowerPro® FM3150 system includes all components necessary for a turnkey chlorination system and is adaptable for automatic control and multi-point injection.
The three-inch Accu-Tab SI (scale inhibitor) calcium hypochlorite tablets, also NSF-listed, are specifically formulated to help prevent scale formation inside the chlorination chamber, especially in hard-water areas. The tablets are pressed rather than formed, ensuring their physical integrity and eliminating brittleness and extensive breakage.
Chandler Heights’ upgraded system, which included a new piping system, redesigned flow for improved efficiency and the Accu-Tab system, came online in late March 2005. Early results include chlorine residuals of 0.70 mg/l and a system pH of 7.3.

D-eritadenine and (S)-DHPA are aliphatic adenosine analogues recognized to focus on S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) and potent antiviral substances. of using an in vitro cryptosporidial illness model. is definitely a buy 852808-04-9 genus of unicellular parasites owned by the Phylum Apicomplexa, which and so are the main species infecting human beings. Their illness typically leads to mild to serious, but self-limiting watery diarrhea in buy 852808-04-9 immunocompetent individuals. However, their illness in immunocompromised people, such as Helps patients, could possibly be long term and life-threatening (Chen et al., 2002; Thompson et al., 2005; Tzipori and Widmer, 2008). Presently, no effective particular treatment is however available to deal with cryptosporidial illness in AIDS individuals. New, specific medicines from this parasite remain urgently required. Our finding that aliphatic nucleoside analogs could efficiently block the development from the parasite could possibly be another part of long seek out new anticryptosporidial medication candidates. 2. Components and strategies 2.1. Recombinant CpSAHH inhibition assays The cloning and manifestation of maltose-binding proteins (MBP)-fused CpSAHH proteins continues to be previously reported by us (Ctrnacta et al., buy 852808-04-9 2007). Quickly, the gene was manufactured right into a pMAL-c2x manifestation vector as well as the manifestation and purification with an amylose-resin-based chromatography adopted the producers protocol (New Britain Biolabs). Purified MBP-CpSAHH fusion proteins was digested with element Xa to cleave the MBP-tag, as well as the label was removed utilizing a CHT 5-I hydroxyapatite column based on the producers process (Bio-Rad). The purity of recombinant CpSAHH with no MBP-tag was examined using SDS-PAGE, and concentrations had been dependant on a Bradford proteins assay. Proteins aliquots were kept at?20 C until make use of. The enzymatic activity of the recombinant proteins CpSAHH was spectrophotometrically assayed in Rabbit polyclonal to ADCY2 the hydrolytic path (Lozada-Ramirez et al., 2006) using 50 M SAH buy 852808-04-9 like a substrate. The medicines found in this research were natural (S)-DHPA [9-(S)-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)adenine] and acidic derivate of (S)-DHPA, D-eritadenine [(2R,3R)-4-(6-aminopurin-9-yl)-2,3-dihydroxy-butanoic acidity] (Fig. 1). Both inhibitors are adenosine analogues with sugars moieties changed by aliphatic stores. Inhibitors were supplied by Teacher Antonin Holy in the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, Academy of Sciences from the Czech Republic. Inhibition of CpSAHH was examined using different concentrations of D-eritadenine (0.01 M C 1 M) or (S)-DHPA (1 M C 300 buy 852808-04-9 M). The assay was completed by pre-incubating 5 L of just one 1 mg/ml CpSAHH with different concentrations of inhibitors for 10 min at 37 C. The response started with the help of the CpSAHHCinhibitor blend into an enzyme response buffer (50 M S-adenosylhomocysteine, 4 U Ado deaminase, 250 mM DNTB in 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer with 1 mM EDTA, pH 7.2) in your final level of 1 ml. Enzyme activity was spectrophotometrically recognized at 412 nm at 37 C utilizing a Shimadzu UV 1601 spectrophotometer. Settings included reactions without inhibitors, and the ones comprising inhibitors, but no enzyme. Reactions had been performed in at least four replicates. 2.2. Cultivation of parasite in vitro and prescription drugs All experiments utilized oocysts (Iowa-1 stress) which were less than three months older, purified by Percoll gradient centrifugation and bleached as previously referred to (Nesterenko and Upton, 1996). HCT-8 (ATCC # CCL-244) cells (1.0 105 per well) were seeded into 48-well plates and permitted to develop until achieving ~80% confluence at 37 C with 5% CO2 in RPMI 1640 medium comprising 10% fetal bovine serum, 15 mM HEPES, and additional supplements as previously described (Cai et al., 2005; Upton et al., 1995). For the era of parasite regular curves, sponsor cells were contaminated with 10-collapse serial dilutions of oocysts (50 C 50,000). For those drug testing tests, sponsor cells were contaminated with 5,000 oocysts per well. Parasites had been permitted

Europe’s approval rates rise in America
It is a great news to learn that 49 percent of Americans approve of the European Union. This was the highest figure since 2009. This is 19 percentage points higher than the 30 percent for 2020. It’s surprising to find that only Russia, Serbia and Benin oppose this, likely because the enabler of their opposition isn’t in power.

Are you looking for a unique nameake?
Lee County is named after Robert E. Lee, but Bruce Lee has been adopted as its name. This is because Lee County residents are well-informed and believe that Lee’s films were too violent. Sarah is the obvious choice. Sarah Lee is a favorite of many.

Biden did nothing right
Trump is not creating jobs. The border is now a catastrophe after Trump repaired it. Inflation is high, gas and food prices continue to rise by 30-50 percent. Americans remain trapped in Afghanistan. Yet, he considers the evacuation extraordinary. The COVID issue has not been resolved, no truck drivers are delivering cargo to 100 ships beyond Los Angeles. Biden is demanding another 3.5 trillion dollars. He says that it does not cost anything.
Biden and Democrats are both idiots. Biden voted to build a wall 600 miles long in 2006. But he now has a disaster in Del Rio (Texas) Biden shut down the oil pipeline, laid off thousands of employees and is now asking OPEC for oil. Then he turns his back and walks off without asking any questions. What about the media? As disgusting as he is, you too are. In nine months, he hasn’t accomplished anything.

We fell of a cliff
The truck-driver shortage is the root cause of our supply chain issues. California’s latest emissions regulations require trucks to meet them (50 percent in port trucks don’t). Restricted driving hours and more favorable residence rights make it difficult for drivers. Biden’s existing round-the-clock plan of work, already in effect, won’t help.
Biden’s rules have resulted in 50 percent more gas. Biden’s regulations have led to a 50 percent decline in work platforms, a 20 percent decrease in state drilling, and fewer workers contributing to lower production. Biden reversed Trump’s policy of making the US energy-independent. It is now up to foreign suppliers not performing at their best that we rely upon.
Additionally, the required requirements are impossible to satisfy because there is not enough semiconductors. Many of these are Taiwanese. China’s threats to take over the island from the US will impact supply, given its weakness. Environmentists in the US are threatening America’s largest chipmaker. They want more stringent environmental standards.
These problems were not present a year ago. The reversal of policies that helped America become great again by Biden’s president decrees on January 20th began the unravelling. It was a fall from a cliff, and we must be prepared for what lies ahead.

Injust tax distribution
My blood boils whenever I hear someone talk about “rich”, who aren’t paying their fair share. The critics don’t say how much they think it should be, as they aren’t interested in being tied to any specific amount.
Let’s take a look at these numbers. These figures are from the tax foundation. The data refers to 2018. Top 1 percent earn 21 percent of income, and pay 40 percent of income taxes. Average rates paid by the top 1 percent were 25 percent and 3 percent respectively, while those in the bottom 50% paid only 3%.
This doesn’t seem to be a fair way of distributing taxes. The numbers demonstrate a highly advanced system. This is in my opinion unfair.

Congress should act to safeguard democracy
Federal action is required to combat the recent increase in voter suppression laws, as well as attempts to subvert fair and secure elections. To protect democracy, Congress needs to act to establish national standards for federal elections. Freedom to Vote Act protects the rights of voters, ends partisan gerrymandering and helps eliminate undue dark money influence on our elections.

Three-dimensional optical tomography techniques were developed to reconstruct three-dimensional objects using a set of two-dimensional projection images. Five basis functions, such as cubic B-spline, o-Moms, keys, and cosine functions and Gaussian basis functions, were used to calculate the weighting coefficients for a projection matrix. Two different forms of a multiplicative algebraic reconstruction technique were also used to solve inverse problems. The reconstruction algorithm was examined by using several phantoms, which included droplet behaviors and random distributions of particles in a volume. The three-dimensional volume comprised of particles was reconstructed from four projection angles, which were positioned at an offset angle of 45° between each other. Then, three-dimensional velocity fields were obtained from the reconstructed particle volume by three-dimensional cross correlation. The velocity field of the synthetic vortex flow was reconstructed to analyze the three-dimensional tomography algorithm.

The American Revolution was at once a war for independence, a civil war, and a world war, fought by neighbors on American farms and between global powers an ocean or more away. It impacted millions from Vermont’s Green Mountains to the swamps of South Carolina, from the Great Lakes to Gibraltar. In defeating the British Empire and giving birth to a new nation, the American Revolution turned the world upside-down. Thirteen colonies on the Atlantic Coast united in rebellion, won their independence, and established a government by the people, for the people.
The American Revolution, our six-part, twelve-hour series on America’s founding struggle, will present a true-to-life account of the men and women of the Revolutionary generation, their humanity in victory and defeat, and the crisis that tried their souls. By weaving top-down accounts of “Founding Fathers” and their loyalist and British counterparts with the perspectives of the so-called ordinary people who waged and witnessed war, The American Revolution will be an expansive, unvarnished look at the unassailable virtues and unavoidable contradictions of the fight for independence and the birth of the United States.
Directed and executive produced by Ken Burns, written by Geoffrey C. Ward, and produced by Sarah Botstein, David Schmidt, Salimah El-Amin, and Ken Burns, The American Revolution is slated for broadcast on PBS in 2025. (12 hours)

Cytostatic drugs belong to the group of "Especially dangerous drugs" and the use of cytostatic drugs is regulated by the Swedish Working Environment Authority in “AFS 2005:5”. Long-term or occasional extremely high, exposure may pose an increased risk of genetic damage and cancer.
For pregnant persons the unborn child may be affected, as well as children during lactation period.
Cytostatic drugs are a group of substances with different properties and character, acting with different mechanisms. Consequently, the degree of harmful exposure is very diverse, as are the symptoms.
When working with cytostatic drugs it is important to limit exposure by:
- conduct written risk assessments before work with cytostatic drugs starts.
- written handling, safety and disposal instructions appropriate for local prerequisites.
- ensuring that the person doing the work with cytostatic drugs has the right skills (responisble is the manager/head of department).
- provide training and courses (by the manager/head of department).
- inform other local staff (for example cleaning personnel) about the nature of the activity and how to protect themselves.
Exposure and action
Contact with skin usually gives local irritations and allergic reactions and some drugs can also be absorbed through the skin and affect a whole body system.
Any deviations, incidents and accidents associated with cytostatic drugs should immediately be reported in writing to the responsible manager.
See KI rules for laboratory waste, section 1.2 includes "Cytostics and Pharmaceutical Contaminated Wastes", and section 2.5 includes "Discharge to drains".
For more information see AFS 2005:5 "Cytostatika och andra läkemedel med bestående toxisk effekt". (only in Swedish).

Special Purpose Machines
Due to customer demand, Key Plant has developed a leading team of people that specify, design and manufacture special turnkey installations.
These have ranged from small positioners for integration with welding robots to 500tonne capacity positioners with unique HMI controls. Large specialised welding machines have been developed alongside the customer so that exactly what is needed is delivered.
Key Plant have also designed and manufactured add-on components to standard machines for example, a 1500kgs positioner that can rotate at exactly 0.48465 rpm to a speed tolerance of ±0.01%.
Key Plant was the first to introduce a fully automated welding system for elliptical vessels. This included a specially developed column & boom that constantly repositioned the weld head to keep its position relative the circumference of the vessel being welded. Also supplied were specially adapted rotators.
A further control development has been for multiple submerged are control systems. This can operate up to 6 heads from one control station. The control is via a touch screen and has been economically designed to be completely initiative for operators and managers alike.
The system also comes with a touch screen hand held pendant for the operator to view weld data at the weld head and adjust settings "on the fly". The system can also be added to a company's other ethernet network, and management software run to view statistics of each days welding.
This list of special and turnkey installations supplied by Key Plant now number into the hundreds. Equipment has been sold to diverse sectors of industry such as Oil Exploration and Refining, Nuclear Industries, Aerospace, Defence, Steel Mills, Mining, Wind Tower Manufacture and almost everything in between.
Key Plant's commitment to work with our customers as partners in these projects, has established us as a world leader in the manufacture of turnkey welding automation systems.

I must be a genius
All my passwords are unique pseudo-random alphanumerics, quite lengthy too, heck some even change over time (OTP) and sometimes 2FA or 3FA
I always knew really, I didn't need their confirmation of my genius
It's a shame the weakest link is probably the shonky coding of the web application, because the company fails to properly invest in resources, especially IT security
How many breaches have we seen?
How many have we yet to hear about?
How many will we potentially never hear about?
My lengthy unique pseudo-random alphanumerical passwords don't looks so great now, but its better than having qwerty, or the password being the same as the user name (that one is a favourite of managed services companies BTW) - Convenience!

Pedestrian bridge Pfungen/Switzerland – Handrail system with LED
|Overall length of the bridge:||31.3 m|
|Usable bridge width:||3.0 m|
|Weight approx.||23 tonnes|
|Load-bearing system:||Arch construction with suspended steel deck|
|Mid-February 2008:||Municipal council approves project "Brücke für Fussgänger und Radfahrer über die Weiacherstrasse" |
(bridge for pedestrians and cyclists across the Weiacherstrasse)
|Engineers office:||Wüst Bauingenieure AG, Regensdorf|
|Electrical planning:||EKZ Pfungen|
|Builder:||Gemeinde Pfungen (Municipality of Pfungen)|
|Special luminaires:||LIG AG (Lighting Innovation Group AG)|
|Total power consumption including LEDs:||<75W|
Key factors in the handrail illumination for the Pfungen pedestrian bridge were the power consumption and a simple installation concept since the handrail construction had already defined. A single supply point and electronic control gear for each side made the electrical installation simple and cost-effective.
This was made possible by using of the 30 high-efficiency luminaires with high IP protection; their especially molded casting makes them consume only 1W/m installed capacity (total power consumption for the bridge <75W).
LED hand rail system LONGLINE / LONGLINE ASYM
The IP67-shielded luminaire system with linear, asymmetrical or symmetrical optical system through state-of-the-art Clear Casting
technology ensures high efficiency and a long life along with minimal power consumption.
Osram LED components were used in this project.

RIYADH — Saudi Minister of Environment, Water and Agriculture, Eng. Abdul Rahaman Bin Abdel Mohsen Al Fadli, launched the “Research and Development on Algae Production Techniques in KSA” project here. Al Fadli signed Joint Cooperation Agreement with several governmental institutions and private sector to implement and support the project.
The under secretariat for Agriculture at the Ministry, Eng. Ahmed Alayadah said that the project is significant as it will use modern techniques in the production of algae using salt water that will contribute to the Kingdom’s strategic Objective and Saudi Vision 2030 which targets achieving food security, economic development and environment sustainability in the Kingdom.
He added: “The project will also target promising industries connected to algae. The new studies are directed towards feed sectors, plastic and chemical industries, environmental industries, medicines industry and others.”
The project will begin from where the others stopped to be among the pioneers in algae production techniques and manufacturing. It will also increase the joint efforts of both private and public sectors to reach the anticipated results and success. He added: “It will continue for 3 years starting from 2018.”
He pointed out it will contribute to technology transfer and localization, and will provide the graduate students with suitable research environment for their anticipated researches.
Alayadah said: “Algae farming in KSA is considered a base of renewable resources. As a vital economic program, it can contribute to the achievement of sustainable feed sector industry in the Kingdom through the usage of sea water, reducing costs cultured aquaculture feed that represents 50% of the total production costs. It also improves the quality of feed that is used in all agricultural sectors, and opening new economic outlets for marine aquaculture sector.
“At the same time, it indicates its active role in providing organic agriculture compost, and opening the door for the establishment of advanced industries to produce medical materials and food additives and other high value products, in addition to creating new job vacancies. It reduces the harmful environmental impacts resulting from carbon dioxide emissions through the consumption of large quantities of CO2 in algae farming.”
Alayadah said that the Kingdom has comparative advantages support the farming of algae on the commercial level. The most important advantage is the availability of multiple low-costs energy resources, the suitability of Kingdom’s climate to sustainable algae farming on the economic level, availability of CO2 resources from the electricity generation stations, saline water conversion stations, refineries, cement industry and others.

SASHES AND TIARAS.....Miss World 2011 Evening Gowns: Native Couture Girls!
Posted by Nick Verreos Labels: Beauty Pageant Evening Gowns, Miss World 2011, Miss World 2011 Top Model, Miss World 2011 World Designer Gowns, Sashes and Tiaras
The Miss World Evening Gown National Costume Parade of Nations... If you've been reading my recent posts in this blog, I've been "reviewing" the evening dresses featured in last week's "Miss World Top Model World Designer" fashion show presentation. The Miss World Finals are this Sunday and this was one of the "Fast Track" Competitions. Now, I must discuss the "Costumed" ladies of this fashion show presentation. These are the contestants who wore dresses that were a little bit "costume-y" either in its fabrication or style, "Native Couture", I like to call it. There are some fabulous creations here--as well as some "Oh No Huney!" dresses...you be the judge: Let's begin with... Miss Cote d'Ivoire 2011 Kohiman Kouadio: There's so many things going on in this dress: A) All those colors. B) The prints. C) The varying shapes happening--not only is there a mermaid silhouette, then there are bell-shapes to the sleeves. If there was a prize for how many design elements one can put in a dress, she would WIN! Love that smile! She's saying "You know you love my Crazee Couture!"...en francais, of course. Miss Tanzania 2011 Salha Israel: Another one of my "Native Couture" ladies is Miss Tanzania. Now, this is what I call ORIGINAL. Miss Salha has no shame featuring this ensemble--and doing it with the aplomb of a model in a Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture Paris runway show! Is it a bit "costume'y"? yes. But is it still HOT? In a CRAZY-Hot sort of way. The multi-colored beaded crochet netting, her headdress, those STACKED heels of hers. She looks likes she went out to catch some fish, then through on the netting as a dress and some heels and decided to go to a party afterward. Miss United States Virgin Islands 2011 Esonica Veira: This Caribbean lovely went with a resort-inspired brightly printed halter-style dress that evokes a little bit of the flora-and-fauna of her islands. I like the colors, but not so sure it's THAT much of a statement-making dress. One can find this style--and even that type of print, in any Resort Boutique. She really should have gone all out and added an over-the-top Carnival-like feathered headdress to go with it. Miss Indonesia World 2011 Astrid Elena: Speaking of feathers...How 'bout that hairstyle accessory? Don't know what it has to do with Indonesia but I'm all for it: loving the three red feathers and loving the red high-necked gown. The beaded applique is stunning and yes, it looks quite expensive. This look combines the theatricality of a costume with the three-feather accessory but, take those away, and it's a great red carpet-worthy gown. Miss Botswana World 2011 Karabo Sampson: Yes, darling, we get it, Bostwana is in the continent of Africa. Therefore she went with a gold-and-black zebra printed strapless gown with some contrast gold metallic lamé at the bottom and a spotted animal print as well--thrown in for good "Safari" measure. It's A LOT of animal print. And somehow all I can think is that some 70's Pimp is missing his gold-and-black zebra printed RUG! Miss Kenya 2011 Susan Anyango: Another African beauty, Susan Anyango of Kenya, also went the "Native Couture" route with this bright coral-and-black gown featuring slashed panels, godets, ruffles on the neckline and hem as well as printed applique. It's a little "Halloween-y" and "First Semester Fashion School Student" project. Again, ladies, LESS can be MORE! Oh, and I can never say this enough: stay away from the flammable POLY SATIN! Miss Japan World 2011 Midori Tanaka: Love this Kimono-inspired creation. This is a perfect way to

JACKSON, MI – A summer-long Jackson construction project to convert two one-way streets to two-way traffic will soon be complete, but not before more street closures and detours.
Blackstone Street from Louis Glick Highway to Lansing Avenue; and Lansing Avenue from Blackstone Street to Steward Avenue are in the process of being converted to a two-way street.
Steward Avenue from Wildwood Avenue to Lansing Avenue was also converted to a two-way thoroughfare and is now open to traffic going both north and south. The project began in June.
Blackstone Street just north of Louis Glick Highway is closed to through traffic for work on the railroad crossing, and will remain closed until Friday, Sept. 13, according to Jackson Senior Civil Engineer Troy White.
"That particular project is an Amtrak project alone," White said. "All the city has to do is install a new traffic light at Louis Glick and Blackstone, and then the two-way conversion will be complete."
White said the concrete bases for the lights have been poured, and officials are waiting to receive the new signals from the Michigan Department of Transportation to install. There is no timetable for completion, White said.
"It all depends on when we get the traffic light," he said.
Amtrak Media Relations Manager Marc Magliari said construction crews will likely finish resurfacing the railroad crossing by Friday.
"It will make for a smoother crossing for traffic," he said.
The first of three Michigan track improvement phases for the 2013 construction season began Sept. 9, Magliari said.
More than 30 miles of new track and 130,000 new crossties across Michigan will be installed as part of the project, carried out by Amtrak for the Michigan Department of Transportation.
"(The project) provides great benefits like more reliable track conditions sooner and eliminates the need for similar track disruptions next year," MDOT Rail Operations Manager Al Johnson said.
Jackson City Council voted unanimously May 28 to contract with Concord Excavating and Grading Inc. to modify the pavement marking and install a traffic island to convert the two-way streets. The project is costing the city $82,726.

New gyro compasses and radar have solid-state technology with fewer moving components, while thermal cameras and ECDIS provide tug masters with greater situational awareness
Tugs built in the future will come with a new generation of gyro compasses, ECDIS, radar and thermal cameras. These have higher functionality and new features for improved situational awareness, less maintenance and information overlay.
In Q1 2020, Furuno Electric introduced magnetron-free radar and chart radar with solid-state technology for both X-band and S-band configuration in the FAR-NXT 2xx8 and FAR-3xxx series.
Solid-state radar uses electronic components to generate microwave pulses and therefore requires much less power than magnetron radar. This technology does not wear out or require maintenance, significantly reducing operating costs. There is no pre-heating making the start-up time much faster than with a magnetron.
Northrop Grumman Sperry Marine has introduced its Navigat 2500 and 3500 fibre-optic gyro compasses. These solid-state units offer maintenance-free operation and superior heading measurement in all kinds of dynamic conditions, according to the company. They are compatible with Sperry Marine’s CompassNet networked heading management system.
As solid-state units, Sperry Marine managing director James Collett says these gyro compasses are robust and reliable technology because they have no moving parts.
“It is more important than ever to keep a course and have immediate access to information that could affect vessel safety,” says Mr Collett. Its importance for tugs is in their transit voyages between ports and during deepsea towage assignments.
These gyro compasses come with simplified cabling, rapid installation and increased redundancy. Sperry Marine also signed a global distribution agreement with system integrator Radio Holland covering CompassNet heading management systems, Navigat 2500 and 3500 fibre-optic gyro compasses and Navigat 100 and 200 spinning mass gyros.
Raytheon Anschütz introduced its new Standard 22 NX gyro compass in March, offering additional interfaces and integrated sensors.
Standard 22 NX has more interfacing flexibility as it connects to additional heading receivers or has a direct connection to a Bridge Alert Management system.
“The new interface capabilities will simplify and shorten system integration, installation and commissioning,” says Raytheon Anschütz product manager for gyro compasses Olav Denker. “This contributes to overall cost efficiency and an even more positive cost-lifetime performance ratio.”
There are additional interfaces to National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA)-standard equipment for extra heading and positioning sensors. Interfaces are configured by selecting NMEA telegrams, baud and update rates.
Standard 22 NX enables the direct connection of rate-of-turn indicators to the compass system. “This means less separate hardware and less installation efforts are required compared to conventional systems with rate-of-turn requirements,” says Mr Denker.
Enhanced situational awareness
The latest series of thermal cameras can improve situational awareness for tug masters, providing safer navigation in poor visibility, and easier manoeuvring at close-quarters and when docking.
FLIR has introduced its M300 series of cameras to provide additional information to tug masters. High definition colour video from these cameras can be integrated into a navigation package on tugs.
There are five models in the M300 series. These feature rugged and robust new pan and tilt housings and an integrated attitude heading reference system, providing a steady view in rough seas. The flagship dual-sensor M364C and M364C LR models integrate thermal and visible imagery for sharper detail and colour, making it easier to distinguish navigation marks and running lights, identify buoys, vessels and other targets at night.
These cameras feature FLIR MSX imaging technology, which extracts edges and borders from the HD-visible camera and blends these elements with the thermal image, giving operators improved visual recognition of distant objects.
Cameras provide more detail than radar to fill the close-quarters gap for detailed imagery of tug surroundings, such as the heat signature from another vessel’s engine or a person in the water.
ECDIS and ENCs
Tugs increasingly have ECDIS on board for e-navigation between ports or during oceangoing towage. Tug Technology & Business has used ECDIS on a tug in the River Thames, UK, for increased situational awareness during manoeuvres.
Wärtsilä’s latest connected ECDIS, Translink, gained DNV GL type-approval and cyber security certification by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). These certificates validate Translink has the key components for secure operations. It has IEC 61162-460, a recognised standard for cyber security for bridge and navigation systems and for advanced voyage planning and execution.

Former Prime Minister Sir John Major has said the decision to withhold some of the correspondence about the Iraq war will be "very embarrassing" for Tony Blair.
Sir John Major told Radio 4's Today programme: “I think it is a pity the papers are going to be withheld for several reasons. Firstly, they will leave suspicions unresolved and those suspicions will fester and maybe worsen."
He also argued that the ruling ran counter to Mr Blair's actions to make government more transparent.
"And secondly, in many ways I think withholding them is going to be very embarrassing for Mr Blair, not least of course because he brought in the Freedom of Information Act into law when he was in government."

Mann’s pattern saber belt with Stuart Attachment saber hangers used in the Indian Wars era.
The Mann saber belt developed and marketed to the Government during the Civil War by Colonel William D. Mann, is pretty much the same as those saber belts already in use by federal cavalry during the war. The major difference was the folded copper plate with two “D” rings attached for the shoulder strap and the Stuart’s Attachment saber hangers. The copper slide was held in plate with one central rivet. Attached to the lower ring is a dismount hook for the saber scabbard ring.
This belt has no visible markings. It has an 1851 eagle plate with single silver applied wreath. The buckle keeper has no bench mark number, but the plate does, and most likely the plate is a replacement; when could be in the period.
The leather is supple and typical condition with crazing to surface finish, and some chipping mostly along the belt’s edge.
Mounted on the belt is a.44 caliber revolver cartridge box with weak initials on the flap (JS). The condition of the leather is about the same as the belt leather.
The “Stuart’s Attachment” was patented in 1859 by later Confederate cavalry General J.E.B. Stuart (Model 1860). The brass hook is well marked with “US”, Frankford Arsenal. This was the fore runner of the 1885 hangers, but the Stuart Attachments were made with a spring loaded brass bar that would prevent the hook being separated from the belt ring without first engaging the bar against the spring to remove. The leather straps toward the ends have been modified by a trooper for easier mounting to the saber’s scabbard rings, as the leather has been trimmed to a more narrow gauge. The shorter strap was further shortened to accommodate the wearer. Both brass studs for closing the loop are present. There are no visible markings in the leather straps. These hangers were used for a good while well into the late 1800’s.
A nice rig, and fine example of an early Indian War cavalry saber belt.

Current MLS Listings for Mountain Run
Hanover County (Zone 36)
In the early 2000's, partners Tommy Pollard, Ray Tate and Richard Laibstain came together with the intention of creating an exclusive golf course community in Western Hanover County. Mountain Run, the subdivision, and The Federal Club, the golf course, were the result. While the old adage about real estate being equal parts location, location and location, development is equal parts timing, timing and timing. The developers of the Federal Club and Mountain Run did many things right as they navigated the process of developing the community but their timing was unfortunate ultimately resulting in declaration of bankruptcy in 2010.
The club was built using the Rural Preservation zoning code in Hanover County. For many years, the rural subdivision in Hanover used an archaic code that allowed owners to split off lots in such a manner that large tracts of land would yield a series of 10 acre lots. The RP zoning did not increase the number of lots that could be created but changed the minimum size of the lots and created a large 'preservation' lot with the remainder of the land. The 'preservation' lot could never be subdivided again thus preserving the rural nature of the area which accomplished the same goal of the old zoning code. In this scenario, services and utility costs were reduced (due to density) and the preservation lot could be come an amenity for the neighborhood. In Mountain Run, the preservation lot became The Federal Club, and the surrounding development became 99 acre+ home sites surrounding the course.
The course opened in 2006 and lot sales began in earnest just prior. With roughly half of the lots sold by 2008, the course and subdivision both began to feel the effects of the rapidly changing economic environment. As lot sales stalled and members of the club began to resign for a multitude reasons (usually relating to their own economic issues,) the Federal Club losses mounted. With an economic model that for the club that relied on lot sales at a specific price, the complete lack of demand for new housing meant that TFC was capable of staying open only as long as the partnership could fund the deficit. By 2010, Bank of Essex, the construction lender, forced the sale.
Bankruptcy aside, the subdivision itself is quite attractive. The homes are well spaced and while many surround the golf course, there is a great deal of space between the homes and the course. The 625 acre tract upon which the homes and course were built is a gently rolling piece that fronts on the South Anna River with the Pollard's estate home in the center. Several lakes were created on the property that augments the scenic signature of the neighborhood.
The homes in Mountain Run are larger estate-styled homes with large minimums and an architectural review board that enforces the material selections prescribed by the HOA. Mostly brick colonials and transitional homes have been built thus far with a few custom homes with either Craftsman or Spanish influences. The architectural allure of the homes combined with the fact The Federal Club is one of the best designed and conditioned courses in the region, makes the entire property a great addition to the Metro and will be for decades to come.

NACRA is the brand name for a line of small catamaran sailboats, or beachcats. NACRA was founded in 1975 to tap into the market created by Hobie Alter the founder of Hobie Cat, and several other companies offering small fiberglass catamarans designed to be sailed off the beach by a crew of one or two.
NACRA is an acronym that stands for North American Catamaran Racing Association, and as the name implies, the company has remained primarily focused on racing catamarans from inception.
NACRA was founded by sailboat designer Tom Roland who had previously designed the Alpha Cat, an 18-foot beach cat, in 1970. In 1975 he launched the new company with the NACRA 5.2, a 17-foot beach cat, which was an unusual design that featured plumb bows, daggerboards, and a highly tunable sail plan with a fully battened loose-footed main sail. Many of the design elements of this first boat were carried over to the later designs as well as becoming common on other performance oriented catamarans.
The company has gone through several ownership and name changes over the years, and acquired the competing Prindle brand in 1988. At that time the company operated under the name "Performance Catamarans" and relocated from Santa Barbara to Santa Ana, California. In 2007 the company was acquired by a group in the Netherlands and today operates as NACRA Sailing. An Australian-based licensee of NACRA has operated as NACRA Australasia since 1985 and also builds NACRA branded boats.
NACRA's 20 foot boats dominated the Worrell 1000, a race the New York Times described as "A Tour d'France on the Water", throughout the 1990s, and were selected as only the second one-design for the race in 2001. In 2012 NACRA Sailing won the design competition held by World Sailing, the world governing body for the sport of sailing recognized by the International Olympic Committee and the International Paralympic Committee, for a new Olympic racing catamaran, the NACRA 17, which was used in the new for 2016 Olympic Mixed Multihull class, which requires one male and one female sailor per boat. In 2017 it was announced that a modified version of the boat with foiling capability will be used in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
In 2015 the NACRA 15 was adopted by World Sailing as a Youth World Championships class, as well as a new class for the Youth Olympic Games. In 2016 British RYA selected the Nacra 15 as their new Youth Multihull boat, as well.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is the highest selling fighting game of all time. As a franchise, Super Smash Bros. is also the number one fighting game series of all time. In the year since its release, this Nintendo mainstay has remained relevant to the gaming news cycle with a series of DLC fighters joining the battle through the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighters Pass.\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yK3VltKv3JI&t=10s\r\n\r\nThere are five fighters included with the pass. Four of them have already been revealed and released.\r\n\r\nThey are:\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Joker from the Persona Series<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Hero from Dragon Quest<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Banjo & Kazooie from Banjo Kazooie<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Terry Bogard from Fatal Fury<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\nAll eyes have been on Nintendo in recent weeks waiting for news of who the fifth and final fighter will be.\r\n\r\nThat information might be forthcoming, as Nintendo has announced that it will hold a Nintendo Direct event in January. This comes after the game's official website noted that players would have the fifth and final Fighters Pass DLC character by the end of February.\r\n\r\nGiven Nintendo's penchant for major announcements at Direct events, it feels like all but a lock that they company will be unveiling the fighter at the event this month. After all, it was at the Nintendo Direct event in September that Fatal Fury's Terry Bogard was announced for the game.\r\n\r\nWith such huge news on the horizon, players all over the world are venturing their guesses as to the identity of the mystery character.\r\n\r\nOne fan-favorite option seems to be Waluigi from the Mario franchise. It would make sense for Nintendo to close the Fighters Pass out with one of their own first-party characters. With Waluigi being one of the only major players from the Mario games not to appear as a playable character, the writing might be on the wall.\r\n\r\nRumors of this addition gained traction online when Brian David Gilbert, a video producer, released a video campaigning for Waluigi to have his own dedicated game. This video actually garnered a response from Nintendo America CEO Doug Bowser (who has the best name ever) who posted a clapping emoji and a purple heart.\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/thetruebowser\/status\/1209609073924038656?s=19\r\n\r\nThis led many to believe that there would be more Waluigi content sooner rather than later.\r\n\r\nOther majorly rumored characters include:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Crash Bandicoot<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Steve from Minecraft<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Master Chief from Halo<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Tracer from Overwatch<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Dante from Devil May Cry<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Sora from Kingdom Hearts<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nRegardless of who the fighter ends up being, Nintendo has found a recipe for success with the Super Smash Bros. franchise. Not only does Super Smash Bros. Ultimate have the largest fighter roster of any Smash Bros game, it was the second most downloaded game on the Nintendo Switch in 2019.

Olga Tweedy recently joined the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Earth and Environmental Systems Modeling (EESM) program through an American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Science and Technology Policy Fellowship.
In her new EESM role, Tweedy will work across the three EESM program areas—Earth System Model Development (ESMD), MultiSector Dynamics (MSD), and Regional & Global Model Analysis (RGMA). She will also work with the EESM program managers in several areas, including helping to plan and manage principal investigator meetings and workshops.
A key responsibility will be working with the core management team of Artificial Intelligence for Earth System Predictability (AI4ESP)—a collaboration between DOE management and laboratories to develop a next generation capacity for Earth system predictability focused on enabling artificial intelligence across field observations, lab experiments, modeling, and analysis activities.
Tweedy is already helping to organize an AI4ESP workshop series (held virtually, October 25 to December 3, 2021). Following the workshop series, she will collaborate with program managers and AI4ESP organizers to synthesize the workshop findings.
“We will collect the state of the science from the research community on the development of next-generation observation and prediction capabilities able to exploit machine learning and present the findings in a coordinated report,” she said.
Over her one- to two-year assignment with EESM, Tweedy hopes to better understand how scientific programs are created and managed. “I take a holistic view of Earth system science—from observation to analysis and modeling, and how we can present that information appropriately for policy discussion,” she said. “This is an exciting opportunity to support the EESM program that enhances the U.S. modeling capabilities and interagency collaborations. I’ve always wanted to learn and get hands-on program coordination and management experience and, along the way, gain exposure to a wider view of science at the federal level.”
RGMA Program Manager Renu Joseph says Tweedy is an excellent fit for the EESM program management team. “In the short time she’s been here, Olga is already bringing new ideas and suggestions that will help each EESM program area better serve the needs of our PIs.”
Before joining EESM, Tweedy was a NASA Goddard Space Flight Center postdoctoral program Fellow, and before that, a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow at Johns Hopkins University.
Tweedy holds a PhD in atmospheric science from Johns Hopkins University and a B.S. in marine sciences from Coastal Carolina University. She is also a current Outstanding Student Paper Award (OSPA) coordinator and a co-chair of the AGU Early-Career Committee for AGU’s Atmospheric Science Session.

Chennai: The first unit of Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant is likely to be connected to the grid by this month end as Atomic Energy Regulatory Board has given its nod to increase power generation by 50 per cent upto 500 MW, a senior KNPP official said today.
"We got AERB clearance for increasing power generation levels upto 500 MW yesterday. We will most likely connect the unit to the grid by this month-end," KNPP Site Director R S Sundar said.
It is an ongoing process, he said, adding that the unit has to apply again for clearance for reaching 750 MW, 900 MW and full 1,000 MW bookmark.
"Right now we have already started work for 750 MW mark. Once we are done with the tests, we will apply to the AERB for its clearance," he said.
Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) is constructing two 1,000 MW units at KNPP jointly with Russia at Kudankulam in Tiruneveli district, some 650 km from here.
The unit attained criticality in July this year after much delay, following protests against the project by anti-nuclear activists in areas around the complex, citing safety reasons.
Sundar also referred to Union Power Minister`s recent reply in Lok Sabha that Tamil Nadu has been allocated another 100 MW, in addition to its share of 925 MW from both units.
"Earlier, Tamil Nadu`s share was 925 MW divided by two, that is 462 point something. But now with the Union Minister`s statement in Parliament, you can add another 100 MW to Tamil Nadu`s account," he said.
Meanwhile an AERB statement said KNPP`s application to raise reactor power upto 50 per cent along with review reports were discussed at the Advisory Committee for Project Safety Review meeting and given clearance, subject to compliance with various stipulations.
AERB Chairman S S Bajaj said the Board had earlier granted clearance for the first approach to criticality and Phase-B Low Power Physics Experiments for Unit 1.
He said the Committee for Reviewing Security Aspects of Nuclear Facilities reviewed nuclear security aspects of KKNPP for Phase C1 stage and submitted the recommendations, based on which the clearance was granted.

Smart Tips For Finding
The Advantages of Using the Onsite Storage Systems for Your Data
What is meant by onsite storage of data is the use of physical storage devices to have data stored in them, and these will be such as the DVDs, the hard drives, the flash disks and much more. When you have a business you run, it will be vital to ensure that you think of using the onsite data storage systems. With the technology of the time, you will have better methods of storing data, but they will also have their disadvantages. For any business, the data they generate is essential and is required to run the business. You will need to ensure that you store the data in the best way so that you will get to refer to it in the future. It is hence essential to consider the section below when you need to know all about the advantages of the best onsite data storage.
One of the benefits associated with onsite storage of data is that it will not be easily accessed or corrupted. It is necessary to ensure that you store the data to your business through onsite means as the hackers will not be able to bypass it. Since the data is stored in devices and not in the network, it will not be accessible to people who will bypass the security of the network. With the technology of the present, there have been increased cybercrimes, and thus onsite storage can prevent this.
The other thing about the onsite storage of data is that it will not have limited storage. For most of the companies that offer the cloud storage services, you will have them limiting the space that you can use. The reasons they will limit the space you will get to use, is because it will be expensive to maintain the servers. In this case, it will be important to ensure that you consider the onsite storage which nobody can limit the space you use as the storage devices will be easy to access. Once one is full, you can change or upgrade the space to handle all the data you have.
It is cheap to acquire and maintain the onsite storage systems for your business. When you go for cloud storage, you will have to incur some costs. The company should also consider installing the best network that will ensure that you can support cloud storage. With this, you will need to ensure that your network is secure. Through the use of the onsite storage systems, you will have less cash to use and much to save for your business.

An artist's concept of NASA's Voyager spacecraft, which is now about 11 billion miles from the sun, NASA said.
- Voyager 1 is about 11 billion miles from the sun and was launched in 1977
- Voyager 1 finds new region of solar system, rather than the edge as scientists had predicted
- Voyager 2 is about 9 billion miles from the sun on a different flight path
(CNN) -- Are we there yet? If you're Voyager 1 and you're looking for a spot beyond the end of our solar system, the answer is no.
NASA officials have been saying for months that Voyager 1 is almost there when it comes to interstellar space as it continues the longest road trip in the history of mankind.
Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 took off 16 days apart in 1977, and Voyager 1 is now about 11 billion miles (18 billion kilometers) from the sun.
On July 20, 1969, the Apollo 11 mission put the first humans on the moon. Neil Armstrong famously commemorated his first steps on the moon by saying, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

The Mars rover Curiosity does a test drill on a rock dubbed "Bonanza King" to see if it would be a good place to dig deeper and take a sample. But after the rock shifted, the test was stopped. The NASA rover has now spent two years on the red planet. Curiosity set off from Earth in November 2011 and landed nearly nine months later -- 99 million miles away.

On Monday, project officials said new information sent back from the ship yielded a surprising result.
"If we would have only looked at particle data alone, we would have said we're out of the solar system," said Tom Krimigis, a scientist from Johns Hopkins University who examines data on low-energy charged particles. "But nature is very imaginative, and Lucy pulled up the football again."
The Voyager team believes this region is where lines of magnetic particles from the solar system are meeting particles from interstellar space.
Because the direction of the magnetic lines is unchanged, the project members count this as part of the solar system. When the direction changes, Voyager 1 will finally be in interstellar space.
"We believe this is the last leg of our journey to interstellar space," said project member Edward Stone of the California Institute of Technology. "Our best guess is it's likely just a few months to a couple years away. The new region isn't what we expected, but we've come to expect the unexpected from Voyager."
The spacecraft entered the new region in July, fueling predictions it was getting close to the edge of the solar system.
Voyager 2, which is on a different flight path, is a few billion miles closer to the sun.

Self-organized TiO2 nanotubes in mixed organic–inorganic electrolytes and their photoelectrochemical performance
Date of Issue2009
School of Materials Science and Engineering
The formation of self-organized TiO2 nanotube array films by electrochemical anodizing titanium foils was investigated in a developed organic–inorganic mixed electrolyte. It was found that the structure and morphology of the TiO2 nanotube layer were greatly dependent upon the electrolyte composition, anodizing potential and time. Under the optimized electrolyte composition and electrochemical conditions, a controllable, well-ordered TiO2 nanotube array layer could be fabricated in a short time. The diameters of the as-prepared TiO2 nanotubes could be adjusted from 20 to 150 nm, and the thickness could be adjusted from a few hundred nanometers to several micrometers. The photoresponse and the photocatalytic activity of the highly ordered TiO2 nanotube array films were also examined. The nanotube array film with a thickness of about 2.5 μm had the highest incident photon to photocurrent conversion efficiency (IPCE) (34.3%) at the 350 nm wavelength, and had better charge transfer ability under UV light illumination. The photocatalytic experimental results indicated that the 450 °C annealing samples have the highest photodegradation efficiency for methyl orange pollutant.

MPs will vote next week on whether a referendum will be staged on electoral reform.
Gordon Brown is expected to confirm this plan in a speech later today. If MPs vote in favour of a referendum, then a public vote on replacing the "first past the post" system will take place after the election.
Both the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats have criticised the plans. The Tories accuse the prime minister of trying to "fiddle" the system, while the Lib Dems say that the "alternative vote" system proposed does not go far enough.
If the idea is approved, a referendum could be held by the end of 2011.

Both MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli have been two of the most successful captains ever for India. The former had a dream run as the leader of the side winning all the three major ICC titles. Also, Dhoni has seen the team through the transition phase and set up the foundation for Virat’s captaincy future. Players like Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah amongst a few others made their debut towards the twilight of Dhoni’s captaincy stint.
Moreover, cricketers like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Ishant Sharma will be grateful for the prolonged backing that they got. However, the current crop of cricketers are mainly considered to be Virat’s boys and the players MS Dhoni dealt with a few years ago are different. During the transition phase, numerous domestic performers got opportunities at the highest level. A few senior cricketers also enjoyed great backing under MS and did relatively well but failed under Virat Kohli.
Here are three players who did well under MS Dhoni but not under Virat Kohli:
1. Yuvraj Singh
Yuvraj Singh is one of those cricketers who made his debut even before MS Dhoni. For several years, he has been one of the strongest pillars of the Indian middle order. It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that he had a massive contribution in India’s World Cup 2011 triumph. But right after that peak, he hit a slump as cancer troubled him.
He got out of the reckoning right when he was at his best. Yet, he fought his way back through to the Indian team. He made his comeback under MS Dhoni again in 2012. In 2012 and 2013, he featured in 14 and 19 international games respectively even though he averaged just 25 with the bat. As a result, he played just 6 games in 2014 where he scored 100 runs at an average of 20.
Then again, he made another comeback in 2016 but only managed to score 166 runs in 15 games. Even though there was a slump post-2011, Yuvi still scored 5002 runs in 175 games at an average of 34.26 across formats while playing under MS Dhoni.
Immediately after Virat Kohli became the captain in 2017, he was brought back into the side. He found a good amount of success where he played 14 games and scored 415 runs at an average of nearly 35 and even registered a century. But he failed with the consistency and didn’t get enough backing as he would have got under MS Dhoni.
2. Suresh Raina
There was a time when Suresh Raina was an important member of the Indian lower middle order in ODI cricket and at the top of the order in T20I cricket. Given his flexibility with the batting position, his agility on the field and his part-time bowling, he was an important part of the plans under MS Dhoni. Raina was a regular feature in Team India till 2016 despite his form going down in 2015 and 2016.
His batting average fell down after 2014 and was well below 30. Thus, he was in and out of the side but still a part of the plans. Under MS Dhoni, he played 228 international games and the left-hander scored 6,228 runs at an average of 35. Moreover, he even picked up 50 wickets with the ball. He even led the team in 15 matches between 2010 and 2014 in the absence of Dhoni.
However, as soon as Virat Kohli became the captain, he failed to get the same kind of backing. Also, the injury woes kept him out of the reckoning for a long while. Raina played just 3 games in 2017 after Kohli took over. In 2018, he played 16 games out of which 6 were under Rohit Sharma. Under the current skipper, he scored 542 runs in 26 international games.
3. Ravichandran Ashwin
One can’t argue much about Ravichandran Ashwin‘s prowess in red-ball cricket in the last 8 to 9 years. The topic of discussion here is only about white-ball cricket (ODIs and T20Is). There was a time when the Indian limited-overs squad would have been incomplete without Ashwin under MS Dhoni. He was quite economical, street-smart and the fact that India lacked options helped him.
Ashwin would operate at all stages of the innings including opening the bowling across all the formats. Dhoni backed him extensively and he was even India’s leading T20I wicket-taker until a few years ago. Even now, he is there right at the top in the shortest format. Under Dhoni, he played 78 ODIs and 42 T20Is picking up 105 and 49 wickets respectively.
But his bowling style didn’t suit Virat Kohli’s aggressive captaincy approach. He didn’t pick many wickets as

Fish processing has to do with fish and fish products between the time fish are caught or harvested, and the time the final product is delivered to the customer. It also refers to the time when fish are caught in wild fisheries or harvested from aquaculture or fish farming.

There's a cameo for Stefania Sandrelli as the red haired hitchhiker; really there's no point to the anecdote except to give Vanel a chance to throw the money away, and Belmondo and the girl to pick it up. The Sinatra detour is just time wasting but it's also atmospheric. The stripper is most unlikely, but probably Melville wanted to give a part to the actress (was she his mistress at the time? who knows).
It's a better film than Two Men in Manhattan (not sure of English title) which was really clumsy, and had worse acting.
I much prefer Two Men in Manhattan. To me, that's a really good movie. This doesn't even flow well on an emotional level. It looks pretty, but not much else. Some individual parts, like the sinatra detour you mentioned worked for me, but nothing meshes.

Artist residency – The activity of an artist produced in a specific space for a duration of time. Often these are programs offered by groups or institutions designed to support the creation of artistic work in a new environment.
Autotheoretical or Autotheory – An approach to philosophy and theory that uses autobiography and other more personal ways of knowing.
Capitalist – A political and economic system where resources, trade, and industry are controlled by private owners to produce profit. In the past 500 years, this system has gradually grown to encompass more of society, made possible through colonization, the Atlantic slave trade, and modernized forms of labour and resource extraction.
Colonialist or Colonization –When one country or group of people tries to take control of another.
Discourse – The large-scale discussions being had by people across a specific field on a specific topic.
First-person-shooter or FPS – A popular genre/style of video game, where the player controls a character from the perspective of that character, moving across three dimensions (forward/backward, up/down, left/right).
Hardware – Physical machinery used to run computer programs, systems, and code; the “body” to software’s “brain.”
Ideology – The set of norms and beliefs that inform the way one experiences their world and reality.
Ironic – Verbal irony is when something stated is intended to have a different or opposite effect than expected. Situational irony is when something has an unexpected outcome. Dramatic irony is when an audience knows something that a character in a story does not. Artists often use irony as a tool of expression.
Landscape – In art, an artwork that depicts the natural or built environment; in computers, a display aspect ratio where the width is greater than the height.
Modifiers or mods – Game modifiers or mods are add-ons to existing software and platforms that change aspects of their user experience. Mods are often created by fans of games to expand aspects of gameplay.

Hydroelectric power is one of the most reliable sources of renewable energy. The electricity generated from hydroelectric dams is clean, efficient, and has been powering entire nations for decades. However, despite its many benefits, there are several limitations of hydroelectric power that need to be considered. This article examines those limitations and explores how they can be overcome to ensure a sustainable energy future.
What Is Hydroelectric Power?
Hydroelectric power is derived from the energy of falling water. This energy forms a potent force that can be harnessed by dams to generate electricity. The process involves the installation of turbines, which are rotated by the force of falling water. These turbines are then connected to generators, which produce electricity.
The Advantages of Hydroelectric Power
Hydroelectric power offers numerous advantages over other forms of renewable energy. Unlike wind and solar power, hydroelectric power is highly predictable, and the output can be regulated at will. The electricity generated by dams has no carbon emissions, making it a sustainable source of energy that is friendly to the environment. Hydroelectric power is also very reliable, with a capacity factor of over 90 percent, which is significantly higher than other forms of renewable energy.
The Disadvantages of Hydroelectric Power
Despite its many benefits, hydroelectric power also has several limitations. These limitations stem from the challenges of building dams and the impact they have on the environment.
Hydroelectric dams can significantly impact the environment, and its effect can be both negative and positive. The positive impact is that hydroelectric dams do not produce carbon emissions, which lowers their impact on the environment. However, the installation of dams leads to inundation, which affects the ecosystem and displaces people from their homes. The damming of rivers can also prevent fish from migrating upstream, leading to a decline in fish populations.
Another limitation of hydroelectric power is that it is only viable in certain locations. Hydroelectric dams require a constant supply of water, which means that they can only be built in areas with sufficient water supply. This limitation significantly reduces the pool of potential sites for hydroelectric dams, making it less accessible in some regions.
High Capital Cost
The construction of hydroelectric dams is expensive. The dams require significant investments in infrastructure and construction materials. The cost of these materials can be prohibitive, especially for developing economies.
The operation of hydroelectric dams requires constant maintenance, which can be expensive and labor-intensive. The maintenance of the equipment, such as turbines and generators, can be costly, and the costs increase with the age of the dam.
How to Overcome the Limitations of Hydroelectric Power
While the limitations of hydroelectric power might seem daunting, several strategies can be deployed to overcome them. These strategies can help ensure a sustainable energy future and increase access to clean and reliable energy.
The development of innovative technologies can help overcome the limitations of hydroelectric power. One such technology is the floating hydroelectric dam. This technology involves the installation of turbines on floating platforms that can be moved to different locations. This technology eliminates the need for traditional dams, which significantly reduces the environmental impact of hydroelectric power.
Small Hydroelectric Projects
The construction of small hydroelectric projects can help increase access to hydroelectric power. Small projects can be installed in remote locations, where grid electricity is not available. The installation of small projects is also less expensive, making them more feasible for developing economies.
Improving Environmental Impact
Efforts to improve the environmental impact of hydroelectric dams can help overcome their limitations. One strategy is to develop fish passage systems, which allow fish to migrate upstream while maintaining the integrity of the dam. Another strategy is to decommission old dams and replace them with eco-friendly alternatives such as those that use run-of-river technology.
Government support can be crucial in overcoming the limitations of hydroelectric power. Governments can provide financial incentives for the construction of hydroelectric projects and reduce regulatory barriers. Governments can also provide subsidies for the development of innovative technologies, which can help make them more accessible.
Collaboration amongst stakeholders is essential for overcoming the limitations of hydroelectric power. Collaboration between governments, the private sector, and local communities can help ensure that hydroelectric projects are environmentally sustainable and socially acceptable.
Hydroelectric power is a critical source of renewable energy, providing clean and reliable electricity to millions of people worldwide. However, the limitations of hydroelectric power, such as environmental impact, limited locations, and high capital cost, need to be considered. The development of innovative technologies, small hydroelectric projects, improving environmental impact, government support, and collaboration can help overcome these limitations and ensure that hydroelectric power remains a sustainable source of energy in the future.

The final title in the Deadly Diseases Trilogy tells the story of one of history’s worst human diseases. The book tracks plague from the beginnings of the First Pandemic ca. 542, to the Black Death of the 14th Century, to the scientific breakthroughs of the late 19th Century. In 1900, the disease invaded Chinatown, San Francisco, causing the first known plague epidemic in U.S. history. Readers will follow the outbreak through the eyes of victims, public health officials, doctors, politicians, and journalists. Finally, the book spotlights today’s health experts as they continue to cope with outbreaks throughout the world and the threat of plague as a bio-weapon.
Topics covered include biology; disease (germ theory, vectors, prevention, treatment, epidemiology); scientific discovery; American history (1900 to 1940s, Chinese immigration, San Francisco earthquake of 1906); government ( federal, California, & San Francisco authorities, U.S. Public Health Service, courts); world history. The book contains a glossary, timeline, source notes, bibliography, author’s note, recommended websites and books, and plague FAQs.
The PDF available HERE is an educator’s guide developed by the book’s publisher. It includes discussion questions and activities correlated with the Common Core State Standards.

Match ends, Athletic Club 1, FC Sevilla 0.
Sevilla missed the opportunity to go top of La Liga as they were beaten by Athletic Bilbao at San Mames.
The visitors had won seven of their last eight league matches, but went behind when Aritz Aduriz finished powerfully from Markel Susaeta's cross.
Bilbao continued to create the best chances, but Aymeric Laporte hit a free-kick wide and Susaeta's angled drive was saved by goalkeeper Beto.
The defeat leaves Sevilla fourth, two points behind leaders Real Madrid.
Sevilla have only won La Liga once - in 1945-46 - but their bright start to the season had raised supporters' hopes that they could be in title contention.
However, Unai Emery's side disappointed against Bilbao, recording only one shot on target.
This result, and Valencia's 3-1 win at Villarreal, means the top five teams in La Liga are separated by two points.

Senegalese twists are my absolute favorite hair twist out there!
I did them on my older sister and I loved how long, skinny they are.
I’ve wanted to get these for several months now but I still haven’t.
Maybe I will.
On to the hairstyle!
It doesn’t matter of your hair is natural or relaxed; you can do it with either one.
It also is is an AMAZING transitioning hairstyle and you can wear them really short or really long, or somewhere in the middle if you prefer.
This style is easy to maintain and quite easy to remove because it involves one piece of hair twisting around the other one.
You can blow dry your hair or allow it to air-dry. Doesn’t really matter as long as the hair is dry.
Begin with a small section of hair. The smaller you section the hair, the smaller the twists will be. Use hair clips (I like jaw clips) to keep the rest of the hair out of the way for twisting.
Separate the piece of hair into two equal sections. Start twisting each section to the right until it starts to coil on itself – an inch or so will do.
If you’re adding in extensions, take a piece long enough to twist all the way past the ends of your hair (to however long you want to twists) and bend it across the two sections of your own hair.
Take the two (2) coiled sections of hair and take the piece in your right hand over the piece in your left hand once.
Coil the sections to the right again, then take the piece in your right hand over and under the piece in your left hand again.
TIP! If you know how to do rope twists, this will be super easy because it’s the SAME thing!
Finish styling by (carefully) dipping the ends of your braids into a bowl of boiling hot water to seal the ends. Repeat until the entire head is finished.

Best online dating profiles to attract men
Creating online dating profiles helps consumers carefully consider potential matches.
Likewise, evaluating a dating site before using it is essential, and it will bring you that much closer to finding a good match.
No wonder coming up with the perfect dating nickname can be harder than writing an entire profile! Step 2 – Get scribbling A good dating profile name should sum you up in a few letters, or at least give some interesting clues about what type of person you are. Leave your notepad on the kitchen counter, your desk or in the car – somewhere you can find it easily whenever a new word comes into your head.
Get a note pad and start to jot down all the words you can think of that relate to you. Step 3 – Mix, match and play You now have a whole list of words, every one of which says something about you.
With the use of modern technology, people can date via telephone or computer or meet in person.
This term may also refer to two or more people who have already decided they share romantic or sexual feelings toward each other.
It can be a form of courtship that consists of social activities done by the couple.Twelve years ago, I took a chance and wrote a personal ad. My finished product reflected my attitude at the time—a combination of "you have to play to win" and "hey, why not? Bumble is a dating app that only allows women to initiate contact in opposite-sex connections; in same-sex connections either party may initiate contact. Since 2012, Tinder has been matching singles based on their social profiles and geographic location. Both users must “swipe right” before being matched and are then able to chat within the app.
POF.com, also known as Plenty Of Fish, is an online dating site headquartered in Vancouver.
It is one of the biggest dating sites with over 90 million registered users across the globe. Mingle2 is a membership service of which users pay to be a part.

After many years as a successful Wall Street insider, Doug Roberts discovered something that would forever change the way he looked at investing. During his time on "the Street," he began to notice that small and mid-sized companies prospered when the Federal Reserve Bank made it easier for them to borrow money. Conversely, he saw that those same companies struggled when the Fed made it more difficult to borrow. However, large companies didn't seem to have these problems and continued to expand all the time.
Through years of research and analysis, Roberts found that there's a direct correlation between stock market performance and the actions of the Federal Reserve Bank. He went on to prove his theory by testing it back to the Crash of 1929. In watching how the Fed influenced the availability of money and creditand simply shifting funds between large and small stocks as little as one to two times per yearRoberts was able to outperform the S&P 500 as well as the vast majority of mutual funds. He continued to develop a system based on these findings, adding a few more measures to enhance its performance, and his Follow the Fed® strategy was born.

I always knew that Wall Street 'experts' were making a fortune for giving us mediocre advice, and that their incentives were not in our best interest. Not only does 'Follow the Fed' explain why this happens, but offers a unique and easy way to invest that beats these so-called experts. Bravo!
Mr. Roberts' simple but effective strategy for investing is outlined in an easy to understand format. I would recommend using the associated website to help you get started with this 'can't miss' investment program.
