News and Notes
- The Nevada State Atheletic Commission has overturned Donald Cerrone’s Sept. 5 victory over Kenneth Alexander after he tested positive for Hydrochlorothiazide.
- In a sit down with Yahoo! Sports, former PRIDE middleweight champion Wanderlei Silva discussed a variety of subjects including steroids, Chuck Liddell, Mauricio “Shogun” Rua and more.
Actually, they do test in Japan. I was tested before and after my fights in Japan. But if you are thinking of Mirko (Cro Cop) and Shogun as examples, Mirko may have lost because he has so many other things going on in his life, such as his duty in government, and his business. Shogun went through a lot of changes before he fought in the UFC. He changed his home, he changed his training, and he changed fighting organizations. I don’t know why they lost their fights in the UFC; only Shogun and Mirko understand the reasons why they lost.
- Sticking with Yahoo! Sports, Kevin Iole posted a mailbag article yesterday and in it he stated that non-UFC sources say that the contract Randy Couture signed before fighting Tim Sylvia was for four fights paying between $13-15 million.
Non-UFC sources say that the contract Couture negotiated and signed before his comeback fight against Tim Sylvia in March is for four fights and between $13 million and $15 million, which puts him behind only Chuck Liddell, at four fights and $17 million, in the UFC salary pecking order. Those numbers are believed to include percentages of pay-per-view money.
- In a recent interview with MMAWeekly, Chris Lytle spoke about his upcoming fight with Thiago Alves and also provided his thoughts on being labeled a “utility fighter”.
“(The UFC has) told me this, ‘Chris, we can call you at any time and you’re going to be in shape and we can put you in with anybody.’ It’s not like, no, this guy’s too tough for Chris,” said the Indiana native.
“At the same time, they’re trying to utilize me not towards my best interests at times. It’s probably not a good label, but if I had less skill, I wouldn’t have it. It really speaks to the level of my ability to fight.”

At any one web gambling den, you are most likely to see electronic poker and also tournament gaming. If you are intrigued mainly in playing poker, you should consider playing at poker room.
Just as greater web gambling halls will offer an array of casino games-slot machines, baccarat, poker, twenty-one, and even more-poker webpages will have a selection of poker varieties available.

At poker webpages, you will be able to pick from Seven Card Stud, 5 Card Stud, Texas Hold’em, really each type of poker variety below the sky. At a non-poker webpages, there could be only a couple types to pick from.
The variety of poker games is just 1 consideration. pay out rates are additionally enormously critical. It isn’t enough to locate a poker site that has hold’em; you should find for a Texas Holdem game that has a great payout rate. Not every poker websites are equal-either their payout rates or the type of user interface.
It can take a few rounds to see where you’re most relaxed. Many poker webpages will lend funds in order to bring in business. A player is able to then try the waters to determine if they is keen on the type of action. It is also possible to gamble on no-stakes rounds to help get a sense for the poker room. It is preferred that you at a minimum gamble at a couple of poker rooms to compare and consider alternate types of game play. | [

Danya Cebus Ltd (TLV:DNYA) announced strong profits, but the stock was stagnant. Our analysis suggests that this might be because shareholders have noticed some concerning underlying factors.
Zooming In On Danya Cebus' Earnings
As finance nerds would already know, the accrual ratio from cashflow is a key measure for assessing how well a company's free cash flow (FCF) matches its profit. The accrual ratio subtracts the FCF from the profit for a given period, and divides the result by the average operating assets of the company over that time. You could think of the accrual ratio from cashflow as the 'non-FCF profit ratio'.
That means a negative accrual ratio is a good thing, because it shows that the company is bringing in more free cash flow than its profit would suggest. While it's not a problem to have a positive accrual ratio, indicating a certain level of non-cash profits, a high accrual ratio is arguably a bad thing, because it indicates paper profits are not matched by cash flow. Notably, there is some academic evidence that suggests that a high accrual ratio is a bad sign for near-term profits, generally speaking.
For the year to June 2021, Danya Cebus had an accrual ratio of 0.24. Therefore, we know that it's free cashflow was significantly lower than its statutory profit, which is hardly a good thing. Even though it reported a profit of ₪181.7m, a look at free cash flow indicates it actually burnt through ₪192m in the last year. It's worth noting that Danya Cebus generated positive FCF of ₪316m a year ago, so at least they've done it in the past. Having said that, there is more to the story. The accrual ratio is reflecting the impact of unusual items on statutory profit, at least in part. The good news for shareholders is that Danya Cebus' accrual ratio was much better last year, so this year's poor reading might simply be a case of a short term mismatch between profit and FCF. Shareholders should look for improved cashflow relative to profit in the current year, if that is indeed the case.
Note: we always recommend investors check balance sheet strength. Click here to be taken to our balance sheet analysis of Danya Cebus.
The Impact Of Unusual Items On Profit
The fact that the company had unusual items boosting profit by ₪20m, in the last year, probably goes some way to explain why its accrual ratio was so weak. While it's always nice to have higher profit, a large contribution from unusual items sometimes dampens our enthusiasm. When we crunched the numbers on thousands of publicly listed companies, we found that a boost from unusual items in a given year is often not repeated the next year. And, after all, that's exactly what the accounting terminology implies. If Danya Cebus doesn't see that contribution repeat, then all else being equal we'd expect its profit to drop over the current year.
Our Take On Danya Cebus' Profit Performance
Summing up, Danya Cebus received a nice boost to profit from unusual items, but could not match its paper profit with free cash flow. For the reasons mentioned above, we think that a perfunctory glance at Danya Cebus' statutory profits might make it look better than it really is on an underlying level. Keep in mind, when it comes to analysing a stock it's worth noting the risks involved. While conducting our analysis, we found that Danya Cebus has 1 warning sign and it would be unwise to ignore this.
Our examination of Danya Cebus has focussed on certain factors that can make its earnings look better than they are. And, on that basis, we are somewhat skeptical. But there is always more to discover if you are capable of focussing your mind on minutiae. For example, many people consider a high return on equity as an indication of favorable business economics, while others like to 'follow the money' and search out stocks that insiders are buying. So you may wish to see this free collection of companies boasting high return on equity, or this list of stocks that insiders are buying.

OAKLAND _ A Capitol Corridor commuter train struck a car near the Jack London Square Amtrak station Monday evening, prompting an AC Transit bus to illegally pass railroad crossing gates and become jackknifed on the tracks.
Several trains were delayed, the worst an hour and fifteen minutes on the train that hit the car, which made an illegal turn in front of the train, an Amtrak spokeswoman said.
Oakland police said the driver of the car was not seriously injured and refused medical attention. No other injuries were reported.
Trying my level best to maintain my journalistic objectivity, I tried to imagine how this incident could have been the railroad’s fault.
First, there’s the whole Embarcadero issue. Here’s a street that also serves as something like a half-mile of railroad. It’s like the mother of all railroad crossings. Each intersection is gated, but the gates could be open when you enter the street, but close while you’re still driving along it.
I was on an AC Transit bus that came up to that very same intersection where the car was thrown off the tracks. The lights started flashing, and the driver sped up to get onto the Embarcadero before the gates came down.
Thus I had no trouble envisioning Monday’s bus screw-up, although I’m still a little unclear how the two sections of the bus jackknifed.
Luckily, reader Susan Bohan has a quick trigger finger and sent me a photo of the bus and Capitol Corridor.
“I saw this last night and couldn’t figure out how that bus got there,” she told me in an e-mail.
It wasn’t until the next morning, riding my bike from the Coliseum Amtrak station, that I got a better understanding of how such things happen.
I was about to cross the same tracks I had just arrived on, and the red lights started flashing and the bells started clanging. I looked down the tracks at the train I had just gotten off of, and it wasn’t moving. I looked the other way, and nothing. The gates were not closing.
At this point, cars and trucks are stopping at the tracks, then gunning across when it appears nothing’s coming.
As it happened, a certain bicyclist became a raving hypocrite at that point.
Before I continued on my way to work, I stopped to snap a photo of a pair of trucks crossing as the lights and bells continued. | [

What Is Pokémon Scarlet and Violet?
We hath been blessed with three beautiful new friends.
The biggest day in the Pokémon annual calendar is February 27, Pokémon Day, which marks the anniversary of the release of the first two Pokémon games in Japan. A Pokémon Presents, which is basically a Pokémon-specific Nintendo Direct, being scheduled on Pokémon Day wasn’t too surprising, and neither was most of the presentation. Game Freak largely presented us with 12 minutes of in-game events and minor updates for the various Pokémon games presently in circulation. But, of course, there was bound to be one Big Thing at the end: Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
Personally, I was rather hoping for an announcement of Detective Pikachu 2 (movie or game, I’m not picky). Instead, we got something bigger and wholly unexpected, with the next generation of main-series Pokémon games in Scarlet and Violet—and they’re coming this year.
Every new “traditional-style” Pokémon game, replete with new starters and a new location, is called a new “generation” of Pokémon. For example, Gen I was Red / Blue / Yellow, and Gen 8 was Sword and Shield. The recently released Pokémon Legends: Arceus, by the way, doesn’t count—aside from being a different style of game altogether, Hisui is the distant past of Gen IV’s Sinnoh.
Arceus’s recent release does make the announcement of Scarlet and Violet quite shocking, though. It would be one thing if Game Freak just announced the games’ development, but Arceus just came out in late January, and already we’re getting a new mainline game later this year?! And that’s even after Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl came out in November?! Nothing in the present world leads me to believe so many nice things can happen so close together without dire consequences.
The region name for Scarlet and Violet hasn’t been announced yet, but it looks to be deeply inspired by Spain. But we do know the three starters of this region: Sprigatito, the Grass Cat Pokémon; Fuecoco, the Fire Croc Pokémon; and Quaxly, the Duck Pokémon. All three of them are perfect. They are all my perfect friends.
What’s more, the trailer for Scarlet and Violet confirms that the days of wandering in the grass and endlessly bumping into mystery Pokémon are gone for good. Thank the mighty Sinnoh, god of space/time. Whether or not the Arceus model of tossing a Poké Ball and smoothly entering into uninterrupted combat will transfer to Scarlet and Violet remains unclear. I really, really hope so.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet will come exclusively to the Nintendo Switch in late 2022. If it indeed joins The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 and Bayonetta 3 in the projected Q4 release calendar for the Switch, I will be very antisocial and poor this winter.

The children were delighted to have the opportunity to go to John Henry Newman College to sing for the students and invited guests during their Christmas Lunch.
We were welcomed by Mr Morgan, who is now a good friend of our school. The children sang a range of Christmas Carols and Songs which gave much pleasure to the people listening to them.
After our concert had finished we met some of our former pupils and had the opportunity to listen to their choir and some of their musicians play some festive music. We look forward to our next visit. | [

CHRISTMAS IN PALERMO
There are many events in this city over the Christmas period. There are itinerant musicians, zampogna players, markets and lights everywhere, but the celebration of the Immaculate Conception is particularly popular and has a strong historical tradition. The day before the faithful make a pilgrimage to the Basilica of San Francesco, while on the 8th at least 112 confraternities meet in front of the Cathedral to go to the Basilica. In the afternoon, the silvery Madonna float is carried in a procession through the city, stopping at piazza San Domenico before visiting the Cathedral and then returning back to the Basilica.

Device for APS or MCC
"MPS has finalized the development of its Generic Jet Training Device (GenJet), which is an affordable device for FTO’s/ATO’s. The pricing of the GenJet and leasing or rental options (by the hour) enable even smaller schools to use an advanced Fixed Base jet Simulator from MPS.
The GenJet is a low-cost training device ideal for selection, APS, MCC, JOC, MPL2 and IFR training. The design is loosely based on the functionality of a popular modern passenger jet for 140 – 170 passengers. It is the perfect combination of a common Commercial Air Transport Category Aircraft with an OEM flight and performance model. The GenJet will be EASA certified as an FNPT-II/MCC device, prior to leaving the MPS factory."
MPS’ President and founder, Dick Verburg:
“Students are eager to obtain their pilot license. The challenge for flight training schools is to deliver airline ready pilots. This requires good selection of students and high quality MCC and JOC training. The quality of training is determined by the quality of the syllabus, the instructor and the simulator. With a high quality, advanced jet simulator like MPS’ GenJet, FTO’s can optimally prepare their students for the airline jet type rating.”
MPS develops, manufactures and maintains simulators, which are type specific and exact replicas of the Boeing B737 and Airbus A320 flight deck. Recently MPS expanded its product range with a Generic Jet Training Device. The simulators are based on the needs of flight training organizations and airlines for affordable, high quality devices that are specific for certain classes of jets. MPS delivers its products and services worldwide to Authorized and Type Rating Training Organizations, and major airline’s in-house training organizations. MPS has a global installed base of its EASA and FAA certified simulators."

Film review of Monsters University
Monsters University was released in 2013 by Disney Pixar and directed by Dan Scanlon.
It is a funny animation which will keep the whole family entertained. It stars Billy Crystal as Mike Wazowski and John Goodman as James "Sully" Sullivan. Mike first began dreaming of becoming a scarer and to help to power the monsters world by collecting children's screams, when he visited a scare factory on a school trip. From that day he was determined to become one when he grew up. The film follows Mike through monsters university as he strives to achieve his goal.
The film has many positive messages including: friendship, not giving up and working hard to achieve your dream. I think this film is very entertaining because it is funny and very enjoyable. I would recommend this film for all ages but would be best for children aged 5+ as it has occasional arguments and scary scenes.
I am looking forward to watching the sequel: Monsters Inc. | [

Increased Shoulder Arthroscopy Time Is Associated With Overnight Hospital Stay and Surgical Site Infection.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to characterize the rates of short-term postoperative complications, readmissions, and overnight hospital stays as a function of shoulder arthroscopy procedure time. A secondary aim of this current study was to identify baseline patient risk factors for adverse outcomes.
METHODS: This study used the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program registry from 2012 to 2015. Shoulder arthroscopy cases were categorized based on operative time, either <45 >minutes, between 45 and 90 minutes, or >90 minutes. The rates of 30-day postoperative complications, readmissions, and overnight hospital stays were compared with bivariate and multivariate analysis.
RESULTS: In total, 33,095 shoulder arthroscopy procedures were identified. Of these, 7,027 (21.2%) were <45 >minutes, 16,610 (50.2%) were between 45 and 90 minutes, and 9,458 (28.6%) were >90 minutes. Multivariate analysis identified increased the risk of superficial surgical site infections (SSIs) for procedures lasting between 45 and 90 minutes (odds ratio [OR] = 3.63; P =.036) and for procedures >90 minutes (OR = 4.40; P =.019), compared with proceduresFurthermore, there was an increased risk of overnight hospital stay for patients who had a shoulder arthroscopy lasting between 45 and 90 minutes (OR = 1.33) and >90 minutes (OR = 2.14), compared with procedures30 kg/m
CONCLUSIONS: Increased shoulder arthroscopy procedure time is associated with adverse short-term outcomes, particularly superficial SSI and overnight hospital stay. This information may be useful for patient counseling and postoperative risk stratification, as operative time is an easily measured surrogate for surgical complexity or difficulty.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Retrospective cohort study, Level III.

Though his name may not jump to people’s lips like John Moses Browning or Samuel Colt, in the 1950s and ’60s, Eugene Stoner of AR-15 fame, was one of the most influential weapon designers in the world, so influential in fact, it’s hard to imagine a modern American small arm that hasn’t incorporated some aspects of Stoner’s original AR designs into their own system at one time or another. But, as is often the case with innovators light-years ahead of their time, many of Stoner’s most “outside the box” designs were hampered by the prevailing shortsightedness of the era and perhaps the classic example of this is the Stoner 63 (aka the XM22/E1), a completely modular weapon system built around a common receiver that could be assembled into a rifle, a carbine or number of various machine gun configurations—way back in 1961.
One Receiver to Bind Them All
After Stoner resigned his position at Armalite where he was responsible for the AR-15 (though really the M16), AR-10 and AR-5 survival rifles, he took a short walk down the road to Cadillac Gage, a small arms development company also based in Costa Mesa, California (along with Armalite), and petitioned the firm for help on a new rifle design, prominently featuring a fully invertible receiver upon which many weapons could be constructed.
The only components that were common to all permutations of this weapon system would be the bolt, the piston, the receiver, the trigger mechanism and the return spring. To these core elements various barrels, bipods and tripods, buttstocks and feed devices could be added or swapped out into different designs. The beautiful part though was that even though the system was not completely tool-less, much of this reassembly could be done in the field, dependent on the demands of the current tactical situation.
The first prototype, the Stoner M69W (called such because it read the same upside-down) was a weapon system comprised of 15 modular units (subsequent prototypes and variants like the Stoner 62 in 7.62x51mm NATO and the Stoner 63 would more or less continue this trend of 17 units per system). These components could be easily arranged and assembled in such ways that the single weapon essentially granted the operator access to a whole mobile arsenal of small arms, with each variation offering different strengths for different combat scenarios.
The primary basis for the Stoner system was the rotary lock, the same one he first used on the AR-10 and later on the AR-15/M-16 rifles. The Stoner 63—the final and most “successful” model—however, used a vastly different method of gas operation, inasmuch as it was based on a long-travel piston that actuated the rotary bolt, consisting of seven radially symmetrical locking lugs. These lugs engaged a series of recesses in the barrel extension with the full effect of the mechanism distributing the firing load evenly around the bolt head and barrel socket. This set up also went a long way to reducing stress and increasing the longevity of the weapon system’s receiver components—vital to the success of weapon that relied so heavily on strong and adaptable internal parts.
The Stoner 63 and Its Configurations
As mentioned above, the Stoner 62 models were originally developed to use the 7.62x51mm NATO cartridge, but it became clear to its designers early on in this weapon’s very brief production life that the promising 5.56x45mm NATO was rising to dominance amongst military firearms and plans to re-chamber the platform began while these Model 62 rifles were still on the workbench. The changes pursuant to this recalibration had the additional benefit of making many of the other components in the system lighter and, hence, an overall lighter weapon with obvious tactical advantages.
Its overall length was 40.23 inches without any attachments, and had a standard barrel length of 20 inches. Its fully loaded weight was 9.68 pounds and it had an impressive cyclic rate of fire of 660 rounds per minute, as well as a muzzle velocity of 3,280 feet per second. It used 30-round curved magazines, reminiscent of AK mags.
The “primary” weapon system for the Stoner 63 in 5.56x45mm NATO was a carbine with a folding buttstock, though about many configurations could be achieved from this base model by swapping out furniture. These included assault rifle versions, fully-automatic machine gun versions with either bipods or tripods, as well as the ultimate addition of a heavy barrel version for hot and long shooting. In far fewer numbers came the solenoid-fired machine gun for co-axial use in armored fighting vehicles.
Across the board, the platform saw basic upgrades in the form of the Stoner 63A and in field tests, the most military outfits recognized these configurations:

The controlled preparation of different crystal morphologies with varying preferential orientation with respect to the substrate is of crucial importance in many fields of applications. In this work, the controlled preparation of different phenytoin morphologies and the dependency of the preferential orientation of those crystallites is related with the preparation method (solvent annealing vs drop casting), as well as the physical–chemical interaction with the solvents in use. While solvent annealing induces the formation of particular structures that are partially dewetted, the drop casting technique from various solvent results in the formation of needle-like and elongated structures, with each having a distinct morphology. The morphologies are explained via the Hansen solubility parameters and correlated with the solvent vapor pressures. X-ray diffraction experiments reveal preferential orientations with respect to the solid substrate and indicate the surface-mediated stabilization of an unknown polymorph of phenytoin with an elongated unit cell in the b-axis.

The O2NE+ and Safe-Ox+ use a type of sensor that measures the partial pressure of oxygen in the atmosphere where the instrument is located. These sensors are not cross sensitive to helium so will measure correctly in a helium atmosphere. This means that the sensor can be safely used to detect oxygen displacement by helium gas leaks.
Will the O2NE+ be affected by helium in the environment? Print

I wouldn't be surprised to see some of their new products delayed due to the financial crisis and the reluctance of retailers to add to their inventory.Retailers want to cut their inventory now.They will order as they sell and will no longer for the time being order big quantities just to keep companies like Parlux happy.
Rick I agree, however my position is that I believe that Q L even under todays depressed economy that her products may sell better than others with a new breed of buyers in the market place. Obama's stimulous package definitely won't hurt our line of business.
It may be a treading water reaction to stay afloat, so be it, and my position is that PARL is in much better shape to survive than fail. Someone will eventually want a pice of the pie on the book value going forward. | [

COLD SPRING, N.Y. – The Garden Conservancy plans to open four private and public gardens during a July 9 fundraiser, according to organizers.
Most of the gardens, which are located in Amenia in New York and Washington and West Cornwall in Connecticut, are set to be open for the event from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
- Jade Hill – Garden of Paul Arcario & Don Walker, 13 Lake Amenia Road, Amenia, N.Y.: According to organizers, this garden began as a rocky hillside that was mostly lawn. Jade Hill has since grown into a stroll garden designed to be a tapestry of texture and color. Favorite plantings include Japanese maples, conifers, a bamboo grove, a rose garden, a gold-themed garden viewed from a cantilevered “Oriental” pavilion and goldfish and lotus ponds.
- Hollister House Garden, 300 Nettleton Hollow Road, Washington, Conn.: Situated around an 18th century farmhouse, this romantic, country garden features exuberant plantings set in rambling formal structure noted for its subtle (and sometimes surprising) color combinations. Reminiscent of such classic English gardens as Great Dixter and Sissinghurst, the Hollister House Garden is divided into a series of rooms that open to vistas over the garden and out onto the natural landscape beyond, according to organizers.
- Garden of Michael Trapp, 7 River Road, West Cornwall, Conn.: This old world-style garden is intimate with cobbled paths, terraced gardens, raised perennial beds and reflecting pools. Overlooking the Housatonic River, the property has a distinct French/Italian flavor, according to organizers.
- Garden of Jane Garmey, 106 Cogswell Road, West Cornwall, Conn. (1-5 p.m.): An idiosyncratic garden that began to take shape about 12 years ago and surrounds an 1827 house, featuring two long beds, planted for drama and height with perennials, grasses, and annuals; a small kitchen garden; a boxwood parterre; a formal arrangement of weeping cherry trees; a long water rill; and a bird house village set in a glade of giant petasitis.
According to organizers, entrance to the private gardens costs $7, which will benefit the Garden Conservancy. Children 12 and under are free. Discount admission tickets are available as well through advanced mail order.
The event, part of the Conservancy’s Open Days program, is open during rain and shine with no reservation required, according to organizers. For more information, call 1-888-842-2442 or find the Open Days program online.
All Open Days gardens are featured in the 2016 Open Days Directory, a soft-cover book that includes detailed driving directions and vivid garden descriptions written by their owners. The directory includes garden listings in 18 states and costs $25.95 including shipping.
See the garden's website or call 1-888-842-2442 to order with a Visa, MasterCard or American Express. Checks or money orders can be sent to: the Garden Conservancy, P.O. Box 219, Cold Spring, N.Y. 10516.

Meteor crater in Arizona created by powerful asteroid collision. In addition to asteroids, comets are more difficult to estimate and could also threaten the Earth.
An asteroid will indeed hit the earth. Even ten of them the size of a refrigerator that passed the atmosphere each year.
Most the asteroid burned on the way in, and about two-thirds of the remaining (or pieces thereof) falling into the sea because of our planet about two-thirds of the ocean.
Many small stones fell to the earth’s surface regularly and interestingly, about a rock from Mars arriving on earth every month.
Some of these extraterrestrial rocks down to earth, but few have caused damage. Meteor Crater in Arizona is an exception, but it happened 50,000 years ago.
Occasionally pieces of rock from outer space through the roof of the house. There are no credible reports there was a dead hit. A horse is said to have died in Ohio struck down, but it happened in 1860.
And large size akhirnyaada asteroid crashed into earth. But no, the asteroid that could destroy the continent at least in the near future.
Indeed there is one medium-sized rock called Apophis which has a small chance of hitting Earth in 2036. These stones can be disastrous in some areas.
But astronomers continue to monitor and if observations find there really is going to hit, scientists believe they can find a way to deflect.
And if all else fails, some futurists suggest, humans to establish colonies elsewhere.
A more real concern, is to come from comets. Asteroids orbiting in a neat line between Mars and Jupiter and is relatively easy to find.
While hiding in the outskirts of distant comets from the solar system. When I was in the path of a comet hitting the earth will be realized by the new human. | [

LIVONIA, Mich. – October 3, 2022 – As part of the 2023 strategic planning process, CEO Dave Adams announced that CUSG has streamlined its management structure and product focus for 2023 and beyond saying, "this new focus on eight core offerings plus five outside investments will help CUSG meet client needs in areas of Martech, HR Performance and Consumer Rewards both for credit unions as well as in other small business sectors. We have already validated this with our HR performance solutions that are used by over 700 credit unions and over 1,000 other businesses. This diversification and product scale only strengthens CUSG's ability to serve our core credit union industry market more effectively."
Creation of Martech Solutions, LLC
Effective October 1, to focus on scalable technology-driven marketing solutions for CUSG’s clients, the technology and marketing solutions LLC structures will now be combined to form the CUSG Martech Solutions, LLC. This division will house three of CUSG's eight core solutions, Web Design and Hosting, and a member/customer experience product, MemberXP. Other investments in this category include Marquis, CalcXML, WHITE64, and Think|Stack, with plans to source and invest in other compatible Martech companies.
Management Realignment and Promotions
Effective with these changes, CUSG's current Chief Investment Officer Mike Wallace will take on the new COO role of Martech Solutions with David Dean becoming CUSG's new Chief Investment Officer, charged with sourcing new private investments for all three divisions of CUSG, Martech, HR Performance, and Consumer Rewards.
Chief Technology Officer Tim Bohlman and current technology solutions staff will refocus on providing internal technical support for these and all other CUSG solutions including the highly successful CUSG Performance Solutions core products of Performance Pro, Compease, and The Learning Center (TLC) as well as Love my Credit Union Rewards (LMCUR), and Save to Win in the Consumer Rewards division.
Aaron Adams was recently promoted to EVP/COO to oversee CUSG’s Martech and Performance Solutions offerings and CTO Tim Bohlman. Paul Marston was promoted as COO of CUSG Performance Solutions and Mike, Tim, and Paul will report directly to Aaron.
Lisa Rizk has been promoted to EVP and Chief Revenue Officer for CUSG. As such, Lisa has additional sales oversight and will continue to manage sales and marketing for the organization and oversee the Consumer Rewards division, including the Love My Credit Union Rewards (LMCUR) and Save to Win prize-linked savings programs, two core solutions of CUSG.
Through investments and future product enhancements, CUSG will also position its branding, product features, and distribution partnerships to serve sectors outside the credit union industry. It has done so successfully with over 1,000 businesses using Performance Pro, Compease, and TLC.
CUSG offers Martech, HR Performance, and Consumer Rewards solutions through three divisions. It offers eight core products including Web Design & Hosting, MemberXP, Performance Pro, Compease, The Learning Center, Love My Credit Union Rewards and Save to Win with five additional significant investments in outside companies, Marquis, CalcXML, Think|Stack, WHITE64 and AudioEye. CUSG has more than 125 investors comprised of credit unions, credit union leagues, and credit union system organizations. The company also maintains strategic partnerships with Intuit TurboTax, Charter Spectrum, H&R Block, CU Risk Intelligence, and many others. For more information, visit CUSG.com.

The potential nuclear disaster in Japan is prompting fresh anxiety at the Minnesota Capitol about a push to lift a moratorium on new nuclear power plants in the state.
Minnesota has power plants at Prairie Island and Monticello that went online 40 years ago. The Monticello plant has the same kind of General Electric reactor that exploded at Japan's Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant when an earthquake knocked out power, crippling the reactor's cooling systems.
Now Minnesota and states nationwide are looking anew at their aging nuclear generating plants, reminded of the danger that accompanies nuclear power. Some states have considered new reactors. But on Monday several European countries imposed temporary moratoriums on building new ones, and at least one Massachusetts congressman is calling for a similar ban.
But in St. Paul, GOP legislators say they intend to push forward with their efforts to repeal Minnesota's 1994 moratorium, which arose over concerns about nuclear waste storage.
Senate Majority Leader Amy Koch, R-Buffalo, who is sponsoring the bill, said a repeal should not be affected by events in Japan. "This doesn't build a nuclear plant, this just puts it on the table for discussion," she said.
The Senate and House have already approved the repeal. They had been working out some differences in a conference committee on Friday when news of the quake hit.
Koch noted that Minnesota is not at risk from earthquakes or tsunamis.
But DFL opponents said the disaster unfolding across the Pacific is evidence the ban should be kept in place.
"I think what the situation in Japan shows is that this would be the absolute worst time to lift a moratorium," said Rep. Frank Hornstein, DFL-Minneapolis.
Gov. Mark Dayton, who had said he would consider the bill, is now requiring conditions that could prove to be the bill's undoing.
As TV sets throughout the Capitol broadcast events unfolding in Japan on Friday, a panel of legislators reviewing the bill learned that Dayton would not approve it without language protecting ratepayers and a requirement that the federal government find a place for nuclear waste before new plants are built.
Sen. Julie Rosen, R-Fairmont, said Dayton's storage provision "basically... just shuts the whole bill down."
But the meetings to reconcile the Senate and House bills will likely continue next week, said bill sponsor Rep. Joyce Peppin. "Our situation is a little different than in Japan," Peppin said.
U.S. Reps. Tim Walz and Erik Paulsen, who have voiced bipartisan support for lifting the ban, maintained that support in separate statements Monday.
Support for lifting the ban, though more prevalent among Republicans, has never fallen strictly along party lines at the Legislature partly because some trade unions support building new plants. Rep. Tom Anzelc, DFL-Balsam Township, said Monday that there has been a lot of e-mail chatter among DFL lawmakers about events in Japan.
"At a minimum, this will cause legislators who are undecided on the issue, it will cause them to pause and reflect a little bit more on the perils of nuclear power," Anzelc said.
Steve Morse, executive director of the Minnesota Environmental Partnership, called the aftermath "a tremendous human tragedy" that "does change the landscape on our issues here."
Opponents note that Minnesota regularly faces its own natural disasters, such as flooding and tornadoes. Both plants sit near the Mississippi River and nuclear waste has been stored on a flood plain outside the Prairie Island plant for nearly two decades.
Rep. Linda Higgins, DFL-Minneapolis, said the Japanese disaster should be a wakeup call to legislators who will have to take another vote on the bill. "The timing couldn't be more startling," she said.
Are our plants safe?
U.S. nuclear power plants, like those in Japan, are built with multiple backup systems to cool reactors in an emergency. Last year the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) ordered Xcel Energy to remedy such a risk at Prairie Island Unit 2.
The flaw, which had existed since the unit opened in 1974, could have allowed flooding of backup generators and other safety systems needed to cool the reactor in an accident, the NRC says. Xcel made modifications to avoid such an event.
Whether Japan's disaster will reveal safety issues that need attention in U.S. nuclear plants won't be known until the crisis is over, the NRC says.
"Right now there is not enough clarity about what is happening today, let alone about the causes and possible lessons learned," said Viktoria Mitlyng, a spokeswoman for the NRC in Chicago. "The whole world, including the United States, will be looking at, assessing what happened and whether there are issues to be considered."
The disaster comes as Xcel awaits NRC approval for a 20-year extension on licenses of the two Prairie Island units | [

The above song, "Rue St. Vincent" by the ever-dreamy Yves Montand, is one of the first French songs I remember falling in love with. I heard it in the movie "Rushmore" and now that I live near that very street, I hum the tune to myself whenever I see the street sign. There's something about the changes in Montand's voice, from humor to tenderness, that exactly matches the way Paris feels on a rainy day... which I felt even before I'd ever stepped on French soil.
If French music makes you feel like this too, you will love the "Paris En Chansons" exhibit going on right now. Head over to Girls' Guide To Paris to check out the article I wrote about it with photos from the exhibition.

The U.S. State Department has reaffirmed that the United States will continue diplomatic efforts to resolve the North Korean nuclear issue.
Department spokesperson Ned Price issued the position on Wednesday during a press briefing when asked about the International Atomic Energy Agency's(IAEA) recent assessment that North Korea appears to be continuing its nuclear activities.
Price said that those concerns about the North's nuclear program led to the U.S. actively reviewing its North Korea policy, calling the North's nuclear and ballistic missiles a "threat" to the U.S. as well as its allies.
The spokesperson said that Washington's new North Korea policy seeks a calibrated and practical approach and explores diplomacy.
He also said that the newly appointed U.S. special representative for North Korea, Sung Kim, will continue to be deeply engaged in the efforts to explore that practical, principled diplomacy to make progress. | [

PANDORA SMART MOTO V2
PANDORA SMART MOTO
Pandora SMART MOTO is an anti-theft alarm system consisting of a base unit which includes a GPS positioning receiver (58) / GLONASS (27), a modern GPRS / GSM modem, a new generation Bluetooth 4.2 interface, Backup emergency battery and waterproof low power siren PS-330, specially engineered for installation on motorcycles, ATVs, jet-ski, snowmobiles and inflatable or polyester marine vessels.
Pandora Online for Android / Pandora Pro for iPhone application allows full system management and real-time tracking of your vehicle from your mobile phone or from the Pandora website on the internet pandora-on.com
In addition, you can instantly update the alarm for any violation, Geofence control of your vehicle and the entire history of the alarm.
With the power consumption being just a few milliamps (mA) in “on” mode, a special algorithm checks the life of the main battery and when it starts running out, it switches to off power mode which, for a long time, in conjunction with built-in battery, provides effective protection for several months.
Anti-Jammer Function: Pandora Smart MOTO has an extra protection shield for the ultimate safety of your vehicle. When “Active Protection” is enabled, Pandora’s alarm system is in constant communication with the company’s internet servers to control real-time GSM / GPS signals. Thus, even if the aspiring thieves try to use special equipment to block the GSM or GPS signal, with jammer devices, by cutting each alert communication, Pandora’s SERVER recognizes it and informs the owner via Notification Push and E-mail.
The presence of the Bluetooth 4.2 interface allows you to use the additional DMS-100BT wireless sensors to protect your garage or suitcase as well as the BTR-101 wireless relay for ultimate theft protection even if the thieves find and unplug the basic alarm unit.
With Pandora SMART MOTO you can protect the following independent zones by receiving the relevant updates on your mobile phone or on the Pandora web site:
- Lifting / tilting
- Vibration (warnings)
- Vibration (alarm)
- Engine blocking
- Fall machine in an accident
- Ignition ON

Option 1: Installing the stock Heatsink
Black Edition AMD 6400+ package MAY or MAY NOT include the heatsink today. Also, this product is getting rare and it is probably difficult to get. Non black edition are included with stock fan definitely.
1) Even though you install the stock AMD fan into the system and start your computer, you will not be bothered with the fan noise. It is quiet enough.
2) Please look at the pic above and prepare them. You can see Thermal paste, CPU, Heatsink with fan, Dust cleaners and Mini Fan controller. This Mini Fan controller is not ''must have'' but for a bit of interest, you might want to use this device to control the speed of fans in the system. Mini Fan controller will slot into the Floppy Disk area nicely.
Also, You need to have a good thermal solutions and the cleaner (of the thermal grease) The ones that I use are :
a) OCZ Freeze
Akasa Thermal Compound (I found this effective too)
b) Akasa Tim Clean (with the toilet tissue)
Make sure you clean the current thermal grease before you apply a new one on the new AMD 6400+ cpu.
3) Open the cover, unscrew the shroud and remove it. Make sure you remove the cables beforehand so that it is easier to remove the dell heatsink shroud. Clean the dusts and finally, remove this bracket.
As shown in the pic, please ''Use Something'' to make a square hole so that the remaining part can be used to fit in the clipping hole of the heatsink.
You have to actually use the heatsink (clip hole area i mean..) to measure the length of that area and adjust the length until it fits into the clip hole firmly and not slippery.
4) Place this bracket on the other side as shown above and screw it firmly. Note that arrow is telling you to make sure AGAIN that part is the same length as the clip hole of your heatsink otherwise the heatsink will fall off. Apply the Thermal Grease on the NEW CPU. (Note: Please study yourself how to install the CPU if you don't know how.)
5) Place your heatsink. Make sure that the clip hole is secure. DON'T PUSH THE HEATSINK HARD otherwise the thermal paste will migrate out of the CPU area!!
6) Tie up the side hole of the heatsink and the ''motherboard heatsink hole'' with metal wire as shown above.
7) If you are still uncomfortable with this non standard procedure of clipping, add another security on the plastic arm, tie up or add another metal wire to make sure it doesn't unclip(one day). As this is not attached to the motherboard officially, you really need to watch for the cpu temperature just for precaution if something happens in future.
8)These are the final pics. Nice and clean. There are Plenty of other spaces left to Modify as you like.
No need to buy another heatsink(if this was included in your CPU Box)
Impressively cools down the CPU and quiet operation even the fan spins 100%

With that many people viewing, it would be a mistake to not take advantage of the opportunity. Gatorade decided to get in on the action, again.
For the second year in a row, Gatorade released a sponsored Snapchat lens. Sponsored lenses on Snapchat use facial detection to adapt interactive filter to your face, or other human faces you select (or dogs, pictures, or random objects that look like a face).
The sports drink maker created a filter where you get dunked with Gatorade, just like the winners. It had over 165 million users last year, so they figured they would try it again.
The lens was another huge success! Serena Williams, who is sponsored by Gatorade, even made a contribution to the filter.
Using Snapchat for Super Bowl ads is not only the best way to get your name out there, but also keep some money in your back pocket. Snapchat filters are rumored to be around $350,000 for a day, while 30 second TV commercials can cost millions. Just like people expect Super Bowl ads to be good, snap chatters expect the first spot on their filters to be just as good. On average, people spend around 20 seconds messing around with the Snapchat filters, so you better be the best one. It's a good idea to fully embrace the Snapchat platform, because it is becoming a daily experience for lots of users. | [

To begin class, display this image as an Estimation 180 type task. Ask, “How long is the bridge?”
Note: I was inspired to create this task when Daily Overview shared the picture above.
Which car will cross its bridge first?
What information would be useful to figure this out?
The Act 1 video already contains key information about the speed. Therefore, I only provided the bridge distances in Act 2. However, there are a couple ways to go about this.
First, I think it would be fun to have the students find the distances themselves by using a Google Maps Engine.
Credit Jennifer Magiera for introducing this at a recent Google session. The students can use the measurement tool to calculate the distance of the bridges. Also, they can outline the bridges with the polygon tool and drag the different bridges to each other to compare sizes. I’d let the kids play around with it to come up with some data before giving the actual distances.
However, for those who have school internet issues, I provided the actual distances.
Go to the official lesson page for the other bridge dimensions.
What would happen if the car in Virginia was going 50 mph?
What would happen if the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge was 41.58 miles long?

What did I miss? How can this be improved? | [

In the healthcare fraud case that was filed against drug giant GlaxoSmithKline, the whistleblowers who helped lawmakers build their case will receive a large cash award. Current reports are showing that they will split about $250 million dollars.
Blair Hamrick, Thomas Gerahty, Matthew Burke and Greg Thorpe — all former Glaxo employees — each will receive a share of the $3 billion dollar settlement that Glaxo reached as part of its plea deal in the healthcare fraud case made against it. Of the charges filed against Glaxo, one of them includes the illegal marketing of the company’s drugs like Paxil. While numerous companies are often accused of the same practice in drug injury lawsuits filed by patients, it is rare for the drug companies to be charged with a crime over it. In this case, Glaxo was charged with healthcare fraud. The settlement agreement penalty that the company eventually reached is the highest of its kind in history.
Another charge in the case against Glaxo was that the company illegally promoted Paxil, which is a dangerous SSRI class antidepressant medication, to children from April 1998 to August 2003. This is significant since Paxil isn’t FDA approved to treat anyone under the age of 18. Paxil and other SSRI medications like Effexor have been linked to serious and potentially deadly side effects which include violent and suicidal thoughts and behavior. The drug has also been linked to birth defects (PPHN, cleft palate and heart, lung and brain defects) in babies whose mothers take the drugs while pregnant.
Due to the harmful side effects of Paxil, Glaxo has had numerous failure to warn lawsuits filed against it by former Paxil patients who have claimed that the company did not properly warn them or healthcare officials of the dangers linked to Paxil before they started taking it. The company’s guilty plea may just be the smoking gun that helps other former Paxil patients win their lawsuits. | [

Two people have been wounded in a knife attack near the former Charlie Hebdo offices, Paris police said on Friday.
A police official said officers had arrested a suspect near the Bastille plaza in the centre of Paris, adding that the area has been cordoned off.
Rue Nicolas-Appert, the street on which the satirical magazine was formerly based, has been cordoned off.
A package was found at the scene which police said was checked for explosives but none were found.
Paris police have told the public to avoid the area and await further instructions.
Thousands of children in nearby schools have been locked down as a precaution while the Paris metro closed lines in the area, local media reports.
Jean Castex, France’s prime minister, said he had met with the country’s Minister for the Interior to “take stock of the situation”.
Police initially reported four people had been injured in the stabbings and two assailants were on the run but they have since revised the figures downwards with no explanation given. | [

Right at the beginning to say that they are afraid of cockroaches that do not read the text or to look at the pictures (and believe you have already viewed)! The real name of this insect is a gigantic Titanus giganteus, or Titan Beetle, it is a giant in the world of insects, or rather one of the largest insects in the world. Titan beetle normally lives in the rain forests of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and north – central Brazil. Adults of this insect species can grow up to 16.7 cm!
They have incredibly long and strong jaws that are capable of wooden pencils section in half! Now just imagine what you can do for your fingers. Fortunately, this scary cockroaches insects that are completely harmless to humans. Titan Beetle is one of the most mysterious creatures on Earth. She lives quietly deep in some of the warmest tropical South American rainforests, adults are active for a few weeks and most of the time in searching for partners.
The larvae of this amazing insect has never been found, but according to some findings and how scientists believe larvae feed on rotting trees that fall to the ground. Titan beetle if they feel threatened enemy warning hiss and use their large jaws that bite attackers and sharp claws that can literally can break through the meat. | [

Low oil prices and project delays might be casting dark clouds on deepwater operations today, but a research firm’s forecast shows spending will climb after 2016.
Led by developments offshore Latin America and West Africa, the energy research firm Douglas-Westwood projects deepwater capex will jump by 69% to $210 billion between 2015-2019, compared to the previous five-year period.
“Africa, Latin America and North America will continue to dominate deepwater capex, with $173 billion set to be spent over the next five years with Africa forecast to experience the greatest growth,” said Balwinder Rangi of Douglas-Westwood. “The development of East African natural gas basins has not been aided by the plunge in Asian gas prices; however, the development of these gas basins is inevitable
Oil prices have plummeted from more than $100/bbl in June 2014 to less than $50/bbl (WTI) today, a result of bountiful supplies that continue to outpace demand. In turn, oil and gas companies have been cutting expenses through layoffs and delaying projects, including in longer-term deepwater plays, as they await better economics.
In March, Statoil—with partners Eni and Petoro—delayed the Johan Castberg project in the Barents Sea. The project, which will develop the the Skrugard, Drivis and Havis discoveries, has an estimated 400 million barrels (MMbbl) to 650 MMbbl of proven oil. The partnership decided to postpone the decision on whether to continue the project until second-half 2016. An investment decision is anticipated in 2017.
In the same release, Statoil said it would also postpone the Snorre 2040 platform in the Norwegian North Sea. The project would add a new platform in Snorre Field with access to an estimated 1.63 Bbbl of oil reserves.
The company plans to make a preliminary decision on whether to implement the project in fourth-quarter 2016. The final investment decision is set for fourth-quarter 2017. The company is evaluating ways to make the projects cost-effective.
“We have made significant progress in reducing costs for Johan Castberg. However, current challenges in relation to costs and oil prices require us to spend more time to ensure that we extract the full benefit of the implemented measures,” said Ivar Aasheim, Statoil’s senior vice president for field development on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
Petrobras, a leader in deepwater drilling activity, may face delays with four of its major deepwater FPSO projects. Citing Galp Energia, a partner of Petrobras, Hart Energy’s Deepwater International reported that the building of floaters for the Lula Sul, Lula Norte, Lula Extremo Sul and the Lula Oeste fields could be delayed by at least a year. Most at risk, according to Galp Energia CEO Manuel Ferreiera’s presentation, are the P-66, P-67, P-68 and P-69 floaters. First oil for the fields is expected in 2017 and 2018.
Douglas-Westwood blamed floater delivery delays in Latin America as the primary driver for the near-time “trough in global expenditure.”
This comes along with canceled deepwater rig orders such as Rosneft’s quashed agreement for North Atlantic Drilling’s (NYSE: NADL) West Navigator drillship and Anadarko Petroleum’s (NYSE: APC) termination of its contract with Dolphin Drilling Ltd. for the Belford Dolphin drillship.
However, despite the forecast period’s rocky start, a turnaround is predicted post-2016, assuming market conditions improve.
“The expected recovery of oil prices will spark a revival in LNG-related activities in the region towards the end of the forecast period,” Rangi said.
Deepwater offshore Mozambique and Tanzania is among the most promising. Anadarko and its partners have reportedly discovered more than 75 trillion cubic feet of estimated recoverable gas in Offshore Area 1 of the Rovuma Basin.
The company mentioned progress on some of its deepwater projects during its fiscal-year 2014 results announcement. Highlights included advancing long-term Mozambique LNG sales agreements as well as progress offshore other parts of Africa. Anadarko's non-operated 80,000-barrels-per-day Tweneboa, Enyenra and Ntomme development offshore Ghana remains on schedule with first production expected in 2016.
The forecast said development offshore Africa is not expected to be greater than Latin America. However, that remains to be seen given deepwater powerhouse Petrobras’ present struggles. The company has been pushed and pulled by fallout from a corruption scandal, the sale of $13.7 billion in assets and delivery delays | [

Social media managers are responsible for creating and curating content that resonates with their audience. This can be a challenging task, as they need to balance creativity with brand guidelines while also ensuring that the content is engaging and relevant.
In recent years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) content and visual creating tools have emerged as game-changer in the world of social media management. In this article, we will explore how AI content and visual creating tools can help social media managers streamline their workflow and create more effective content.
Automating content creation
One of the biggest advantages of AI content creation tools is that they can automate the process of generating social media posts. These tools use natural language processing (NLP) to analyze text and generate content that is optimized for social media platforms. This means that social media managers can save time and focus on other tasks, while the AI tool generates content that is relevant and engaging.
Improving content quality
AI tools can also help social media managers improve the quality of their content. For example, AI-powered content analyzers can analyze the sentiment, tone, and readability of social media posts. This allows social media managers to optimize their content for maximum impact and engagement. AI visual creation tools can also help social media managers create eye-catching and visually appealing graphics that grab the attention of their audience.
Personalization is key in social media marketing, and AI tools can help social media managers personalize their content at scale. AI-powered content recommendation engines can analyze a user's behavior and interests to suggest content that is personalized to their needs. This can help social media managers create more effective content that resonates with their audience.
Streamlining social media management
AI tools can also help social media managers streamline their workflow. For example, social media scheduling tools can use AI to automatically schedule posts at the optimal time for maximum engagement. This means that social media managers can focus on other tasks, while the AI tool takes care of the scheduling process.
Scaling content creation
Finally, AI tools can help social media managers scale their content creation efforts. With AI-powered content generation tools, social media managers can quickly create large volumes of content that is optimized for social media platforms. This means that they can publish more content and reach a larger audience without sacrificing quality or relevance.
AI content and visual creating tools have the potential to revolutionize social media management. By automating content creation, improving content quality, enhancing personalization, streamlining social media management, and scaling content creation, AI tools can help social media managers create more effective content and reach a larger audience. As AI technology continues to advance, we can expect to see even more innovative tools that will help social media managers achieve their goals. | [

The efforts of managed care organizations to control health care costs may have spread eastward from California, but innovation in controlling prescription drug spending today is flowing in the opposite direction. In 2000, the state of Maine enacted an aggressive plan, called “Maine Rx,” to force pharmaceutical companies to lower the prices of drugs for uninsured residents. The industry challenged it all the way to the Supreme Court, and on May 19, 2003, Maine won, at least in the first round. As a result, Maine’s plan may become a model for many other states; 28 states have already expressed interest.
The Maine Experiment
Maine’s approach is to piggyback discounts for those who have no insurance coverage for prescriptions onto discounts that drug companies must already provide for Medicaid recipients. In 1990, Congress voted to require drug manufacturers to provide steep discounts to state Medicaid programs. These take the form of rebates that must be paid to the states on the basis of their Medicaid drug purchases.
The new Maine law requires that companies offer rebates that are at least as large as those under Medicaid for drug purchases made by the state’s 300,000 uninsured residents. The rebates are put into a fund that the state’s Secretary of Health and Human Services administers to reimburse pharmacists who sell drugs to these residents at discounted prices.
If a drug company refuses to provide the state with large enough rebates under the plan, then its drugs may be subject to prior authorization when they are prescribed for Medicaid patients.
This would not apply to drugs that have no therapeutic alternative, but it might limit access to drugs for which there are alternatives within a therapeutic class. Presumably, the threatened reduction in Medicaid sales would constitute an effective incentive for drug companies to participate in the program.
The Industry Fights Back
Obviously, the pharmaceutical industry does not like this approach. In filing suit to block it, the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) argued on two fronts:
- that the plan is using Medicaid patients as pawns. If a manufacturer declines to provide discounts for uninsured residents, Medicaid beneficiaries would feel the effect through limits on access to that company’s products. This, PhRMA argued, violates the federal Medicaid Act, which mandates that beneficiaries receive full access to all needed care.
- that the plan violates the commerce clause of the Constitution, which prohibits states from interfering with the interstate flow of goods and services. By limiting the sales of nationally marketed drugs beyond the Medi-caid program, PhRMA argued that Maine is creating such interference.
buy antibiotics canada
The Supreme Court Weighs In
By a vote of 6 to 3, the Supreme Court disagreed with the industry’s objections. Justice John Paul Stevens, writing for the majority, said that states have “considerable latitude” in deciding which services they will provide to Medicaid recipients, even when they base their decisions on criteria that are not directly related to the program itself. Moreover, the impact of the law on Medicaid recipients might turn out to be minimal. Access to drugs that are manufactured by companies participating in the rebate program would not be affected, and access to needed medications, when alternatives to the drugs of non-participating companies are available, would be affected to a minimal extent.
With regard to the commerce clause, the Court found a presumption against overturning state laws that regulate public health. None of PhRMA’s arguments was considered strong enough to overcome this presumption. The “modest” impediment to access to prescription drugs that the law might impose on Med-icaid patients did not constitute a sufficient burden on interstate commerce for the Court to overturn it.
Maine’s victory is still tentative. Its use of Medicaid as a bargaining chip could be overturned if the Secretary of the federal Department of Health and Human Services, as overseer of the program, considers it inconsistent with the Medicaid Act. The Court specifically declined to decide whether or not he should do so. Further, the case reached the Court as a challenge to a lower court’s injunction that suspended the law’s implementation when PhRMA filed suit. The Court lifted the injunction upon finding that PhRMA was not likely to ultimately succeed at trial. However, this is not a final decision on the underlying issues; it means only that the law can go into effect pending a trial. PhRMA will continue to pursue the case and might still succeed if a trial is eventually held.
The Immediate Repercussions
States are increasingly desperate to control drug costs, both for Medicaid recipients and for residents who lack prescription insurance. Maine’s approach has far-reaching implications in its use of Med-icaid as a bargaining tool. With a green light from the Supreme Court, even a tentative one, the experiment is certain to spread westward. The world of pharmacy benefits may never be the same. | [

GIS, Information Technology and Spatial Planning
Keywords:geographical information systems, information technology, spatial planning, participation
AbstractGeographic information systems have been introduced local and regional planning several stages. They have influenced the technique of planning but only to a lesser extent the procedures of planning and the methodology of plan-making. More recently, information technology has challenged the whole concept of planning as an expert-and-government interplay. However, legal frameworks have not reflected the substantial change in the potentials of the technology.Any effort to reflect the new technology will face not only institutional inertia but increasingly also the human capacity of users of planning (i.e., decision-makers, administrators, stakeholders), namely the limited extent of overall IT literacy, which restricts the possible benefits of the technology. The dimension of access to and empowerment in planning may reappear in the context of new technologies, with new professional requirements for planners, beyond the computer, GIS and information technology.

Did you know that 60% of RVers travel with their pets? It’s a dog’s paradise at Paradise by the Sea RV Resort! We offer several amenities for our furry friends. Each of our small, convenient puppy stops around the resort include free doggie bags and a daily cleaning. No stinky pet stops at Paradise! Toward the back beach gate that leads to Buccaneer Beach, our guests will find a sign and arrow that point to Puppy Trail, a dirt path along the perimeter of our property that leads to the final destination: Puppy Island.
Puppy Island is a small, gated enclosure that allows pet owners to let fido off the leash, and a few beach lounge chairs and a shady umbrella to lounge while fido sniffs around. For the more robust canine requiring high volumes of exercise every day, the large, grassy city park adjacent to our resort offers ample space to roam. Oceanside is a friendly, laid back beach town that offers outdoor patio space at many restaurants, making it easy to walk around town and dine. Just beyond the city park, the beach cafe owned by Privateer, offers a comfortable patio dining experience for breakfast and lunch. It’s a win for everyone! A beach view for you, and plenty of birds for fido to chase. Hang on! Also, visit our page on BringFido.com: https://www.bringfido.com/lodging/161504
Our pet concierge, Coco and Boo, offers a variety of award-winning services including dog/cat walking, beach adventures, grooming and veterinary service coordination. http://cocoandboo.com/

At last, work has commenced on the stalled ₹5,885-crore Chennai port to Maduravoyal elevated expressway project that was initiated in 2009. The Mumbai-based J Kumar Infraprojects Ltd has started the groundwork on the Cooum River near Casino Theatre in the heart of the city.
The company has been awarded the Chennai Elevated Corridor by NHAI for a total project cost ₹3,570 crores. The rest of the cost is on land acquisition and river restoration charges, said sources.
The project includes construction of new double Tier 4-lane Elevated Corridor from Chennai Port to Maduravoyal in Tamil Nadu. The total four packages are in EPC mode under Bharatmala Pariyojana Yojana.
The project attracted 13 bidders, including Afcons, Tata Projects and Kalpataru Power Transmission. However, J Kumar and Afcons were the only two companies to bid for all the four. The Package I is from 0.342 km to 4.604 km; Package II - 4.604 km to 9,700 km; Package III - 9.700 km to 14.185 km and Package IV - 14.185 km to 20.223 km.
The foundation stone for the stalled 19-km Chennai Port-Maduravoyal Elevated Expressway was laid by former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in 2009 at a cost of ₹1,468 crore. However, the project had run into many controversies, and was finally shelved by the AIADMK government citing environment and alignment issues.
However, the project was revived when the DMK government returned to power two years ago with an MoU signed in May 2022 for the expressway at a cost of ₹5,885 crore. The MoU was signed among the four stakeholders — Tamil Nadu Government; National Highways Authority of India, the Chennai Port Authority and Indian Navy.
As per the revised plan, the 20.6 km corridor will be a double-decker one between Madurvoyal on the Chennai-Bengaluru highway and Napier Bridge, adjacent to Chennai port’s gate number in the heart of the city. The first tier of the corridor will facilitate movement of light motor vehicles between Koyambedu and Chennai Port, with ramps in 13 places – seven entries and six exits. The second tier has been designed only for heavy motor vehicles between Chennai Port and Maduravoyal.
The project will help in speedy movement of cargo in and out of the port. At present, trucks to and from the port ply through the port’s northern end in Royapuram. However, the elevated project will allow entry and exit through the port’s southern end in the heart of the city
On the NSE, the stock price of J Kumar Infraprojects closed at ₹576.50, down by 0.51 per cent. | [

Kudos to the Laurel Heights Improvement Association (LHIA) of San Francisco on their lawsuit against the City and County of San Francisco to stop their proposed plan to destroy 226 mature trees in the process of developing the site at 3333 California Street.
A lawsuit has been filed against a proposed redevelopment plan for 3333 California St. by the proponents of an alternative plan, after they lost an appeal of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors’ approval.
Thank you Supervisor Mar for your remarks regarding the green required to build our urban canopy and the green required to provide critical city services for working families and small businesses here in D4.

The Textile Archive: curating personal histories and family narratives
Textiles are a ubiquitous facet of global culture, with the potential to become records of significant relationships, events, and stories over their lifetime. This research project investigates textiles which have been informally gathered together, and kept within the home, for their emotional or symbolic resonance. No longer used for their designed function, these textiles are saved from disposal for their ability to prompt personal and family histories and stories, in a phenomenon identified within the study as the personal textile archive. Textile design research is increasingly concerned with incorporating interdisciplinary social and cultural frameworks within its traditional research fields of technology, innovation and creativity, to frame a textile's socio-cultural relevance. This shift in the field requires the development of specific textile design research tools which are capable of producing purposeful research which analyses the material and designed properties of textiles in relation to their symbolic or affective experience, in order to understand the user-experience of a textile. Phenomenological research methods are established as tools for investigating phenomena and lived experience from a first-person perspective, which the investigation of the personally significant textiles within this study requires. A particular method, interpretative phenomenological analysis, has been specifically adapted for textile design research, and it is demonstrated within this research project that is is able to investigate and analyse the personal textile archive, producing original insights into this phenomenon. Through this application of this adaptation of interpretative phenomenological analysis, the design, affordances and craftsmanship of a textile are revealed as interweaving with its emotional, sentimental, biographical orfamily historical meaning. This is a useful and important original contribution to textile design research, and the recommendation is made that other researchers in the field will be able to utilise and further test this tool within future textile design research studies.

The venerable stethoscope has long been a versatile tool for diagnosing various ailments. Placed over the heart, the device can be used to decipher cardiac sounds and function, and it can also be used to listen in on the performance of lungs and intestines. But the tool has been of no value in determining brain health — until Stanford University researchers engineered a brain stethoscope.
Stanford neurologists collaborated with a specialist in computer music to develop a brain stethoscope — a sonification algorithm that translates the brain’s electrical activity into sounds. The technology can be used by nurses, medical students and other non-specialists to detect silent epileptic seizures, which occur without manifesting physical convulsions.
Detecting these episodes is a time-intensive process requiring a trained technician to place sensors on a patient’s skull to record the brain’s electrical activity, make a recording and send it to a neurology specialist for analysis. Hours may have passed by the time the diagnosis is finalized.
Inspiration for the brain stethoscope came to a Stanford neurologist after watching Kronos Quartet perform a piece of music based on data recorded by a scientific instrument aboard the Voyager space probe. Realizing something similar could be done with brain waves, he sent some data files to a professor of music, who used brain-wave data to modulate the singing sounds of a computer-synthesized voice. The audible transition from non-seizure to seizure was easily recognized by the neurologist.
But could non-specialists hear the difference between normal brain activity and a seizure? The researchers collected 84 electroencephalograms (EEGs), 32 of which included either a seizure or some features typical of one. These samples were converted into music using the algorithm and were then played for 34 medical students and 30 nurses.
Despite having no training in the diagnosis of epilepsy, medical students and nurses were remarkably good at discerning seizures and seizure-like events from normal brain waves. The group accurately detected seizures more than 95 percent of the time.
The research is published in Epilepsia. | [

Dog Anxiety Training Services In Los Angeles
Did the New Year’s Eve fireworks disturb your dog? Does your dog display anxiety or fear when there are loud bangs and noises, whether it’s during NYE and Fourth of July or when the neighbors are playing loud music? Our four legged friends have more sensitive hearing and smell so they will naturally be surprised by sudden loud noises. Thankfully Canine Path’s services can address fear of fireworks in dogs through measures puppy owners can take to make their fur babies feel more comfortable and safe during these occasions.
Convenient Ways to Decrease Dog Fear of Fireworks
When dogs react negatively to fireworks, it is because of fear and anxiety due to their more acute senses of hearing and smell, which don’t take too well to the loud booms and bangs that come with New Year’s Eve and Fourth of July celebrations. The same goes for the acrid smell that comes with fireworks.
But these disturbing sensations can be mitigated through simple steps including:
- Keep all of the windows closed and maybe let your dog stay in a room that has a bit more padding and sound dampening to lessen the effect of the booming and banging sounds.
- Deploy a crate with extra blankets in it to make your dog feel safe and secure.
- Let your dog grow gradually accustomed to loud sounds like those of fireworks and thunder. Play recordings of those sounds before your dog’s playtime, eating and bedtime. Over time, increase the loudness of the sound. Eventually, they will develop a more positive association with it or at least regard it as a neutral sensation.
- Mask the sound of fireworks with fans, TV or music, normal sounds in the house so your dog won’t notice the outside noises as much.
- Give your puppy a comfortably snug shirt that will help them feel safer.
- If the previous steps do not work out, consider taking your dog out for a drive somewhere else where there’s less noise.

(Reuters) -Canada’s TC Energy is cutting some jobs to “optimize value” a company spokesperson said on Tuesday, without giving details of how many positions have been impacted.
News of the job cuts at TC Energy comes a week after Suncor Energy told employees it would eliminate 1,500 jobs. Earlier this year, Imperial Oil cut the number of contractors working at its Kearl oil sands project.
A Calgary-based industry source said the number of layoffs at TC Energy was believed to be much smaller than the job cuts at Suncor, where new CEO Rich Kruger has vowed to reduce costs, improve efficiency and simplify operations.
TC Energy said the company continually reviews its operations and as the business evolves some positions are reduced.
“These decisions are difficult but necessary to optimize the value for our business,” a TC Energy spokesperson said in an email.
The Calgary-based energy infrastructure firm owns and operates the Keystone oil pipeline and transports 25% of all the natural gas consumed in North America.

One of JWST’s top jobs is to peer deeper into the Universe than ever before, watching as the first galaxies came together. What’s going on and what does it mean for cosmology?
Its goal is to push the boundaries of astronomy and cosmology by observing some of the most distant events and objects in the universe, such as the formation of the first stars and galaxies. Today @cosmicsavannah discuss about JWST with Prof Christy Tremonti
Today’s @AwesomeAstroPod talks about latest JWST findings that may have broken cosmology and changed everything we thought we knew about the history of the universe. Also March Sky Guide!
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has peered into the chaos of the Cartwheel Galaxy, revealing new details about star formation and the galaxy’s central black hole. Webb’s powerful infrared gaze produced this detailed image of the Cartwheel and two smaller companion galaxies against a backdrop of many other galaxies. This image provides a new view of how the Cartwheel Galaxy has changed over billions of years.

I think most teachers would agree, no matter our content, our number one goal is to help students develop as critical thinkers. And in a world where technology rules much of their lives, impatience governs their actions, and emotions overcrowd the adolescent brain, this can be daunting.
We must keep trying.
Every day we see see headlines spouting fake news, and more and more we see headlines shouting “This news is fake.” We see sites on how to spot fake news, and analyze fake news. We have access to lessons on fake news — Google “lessons on fake news, and you’ll find 5,250,000 resources. We even see the hashtag #fakenews (a fabulous lesson on paradox btw).
A few months ago I read this article at Forbes. Then clicked through and read this one at BuzzFeed. I shared them with my students. We had an interesting discussion, but one comment left me thinking: “So, basically, everyone’s making stuff up. How are we supposed to believe anything?”
If we are not helping our students find answers to this question, we are doing a disservice to our students — and by extension a disservice to ourselves. What kind of world will we grow old in if we do not help the students in our classrooms today, determine fact from fiction, identify bias, value diversity of thought, be open to new ideas, support their opinions, and seek to understand before passing judgment?
First, we have to be willing to step outside our comfort zones and seek to understand other perspectives. (If you haven’t seen Outside Your Bubble, it’s an interesting starting place.)
Next, we must school ourselves on rhetoric. And then, we must weave it more overtly into all aspects of our instruction.
As English teachers, we have a prime opportunity: let go of the nine weeks novel study where we focus on characters, conflict, plot, and theme. Bring in speeches and essays and news articles that invite discussion about the use of language. At the very least balance the study of both.
A few weeks ago a group of teachers from a neighboring district visited my classroom. They observed as my students and I read two blog posts about the Fearless Girl and the Raging Bull statues: Seriously, the guy has a point, and an opposing view, No, the Wall St. Bull Sculptor Doesn’t Have a Point. The discussion was rich. The thinking was richer.
At the end of the class, I chatted with these teachers. We talked about the routines in my workshop classroom, the book talks I conducted, the way I transitioned from one thing to the next. Then, the conversation turned to novels. One teacher asked how long I spend on novels. I don’t. I responded. My students read novels in book clubs where they facilitate the discussion. They talk of plot and themes and author’s craft. They bring meaning to the text, based on their experiences reading the books. (I am not opposed to novels. I am opposed to spending too much time on them.)
I hesitate to challenge anyone on what they do in their classrooms. I do not know their students. I do not know their routines or their motivations, the goals they hope to accomplish as they instruct their students, or the limitations put on them by mandated curriculum.
I do challenge the idea that studying a novel for “a long time” like this teacher told me, is a valuable use of the limited time we have with our students. Our students’ need to navigate the language of their world is too great to spend week after week with a book “they really like” that “I read to them.” We must put the focus on the needs of the reader and not the book.
What our students need right now — what our country needs right now — is critical thinking around a wide variety of texts. We need a focus on how language works to persuade and to manipulate and to cause outrage. Really, that’s our best, and maybe, our only hope.
As we go into summer (I’ve got three days left), I hope we will think about how we might shift our thinking about the needs of our learners. As we read by the pool, vacation with family, attend conferences and trainings, work our part-time jobs, I hope we will think about language and how it can either make or break the communication that is so vital to a society, a society that will thrive on diversity, respect individuality, and foster empathy and productivity.
Teacher friends, that is our job. And I think it’s our duty.

In his new release, The Singer of Israel, author, actor, screenwriter, and playwright Henry O. Arnold writes about David, with an insiders’ view. While the foundation is scripture, he then raises the curtain by adding in thoroughly researched historical details, that bring the story to life. Readers will love Arnolds’ vivid storytelling and will find themselves going back to read the scriptural account of David’s life once again. As an actor and playwright, Arnold brings creative elements to The Singer of Israel, while never taking away from the original story. From the very first page, readers will be drawn into this story, many of whom would have read it time and time again in the scripture.
The Singer of Israel
The Song of Prophets and Kings Series #3
Henry O. Arnold
Genres: Historical, Biblical Fiction, Suspense
Release Date: November 15, 2022
The last official act of the prophet of Yahweh was to secretly anoint a replacement for the king of Israel who has been brought low by an unbalanced mind. The great prophet of Israel lives in fear of the wrath of the king. Then out of the hills of Bethlehem emerges the last-born son of a family of shepherds to become the unforeseen hero of Israel.
When David sings of the glory of Yahweh, this shepherd wins the hearts of the royal family and restores King Saul’s troubled mind. But when the singer/shepherd defeats the champion of the Philistines in single combat, he becomes forever known as “the giant-slayer.”
King Saul quickly sees that David is now a threat to his kingdom and secretly plots to have him killed.
David may be the champion of the people of Israel, but he must live under the constant threat of Saul’s wrath until he is finally forced to flee for his life.
The Singer of Israel is a tale of triumph and tribulation, deepest love and burning rivalries; the new epoch is given a voice…and it is The Song of Prophets and Kings.

I'm trying to follow the Android Development Tutorial - this page: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/running-app.html
I am stuck - I cannot run the application. The instructions say "Open one of your project's files and click Run from the toolbar." However, there is no "Run" button on the toolbar, and there is no obvious option to choose from the "Run" dropdown on the menubar (see screenshot below).
Further down on that page, the instructions say "In Eclipse, click Android Virtual Device Manager from the toolbar." That button is also not there!
Am I missing something really obvious? I am on the Java perspective, and I have tried "Window -> Reset Perspective", but I am unable to run the application.
Any help would be appreciated.
Window -> Customize Perspective -> Menu Visibility, I only have this - ticking Run unfortunately doesn't add anything - nor does ticking Launch under "Toolbar Visibility", when I try that I get the error

The present application claims priority benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/504,380, filed Sep. 17, 2003, titled “A DYNAMIC AND DIFFERENTIAL CMOS LOGIC WITH SIGNAL INDEPENDENT POWER CONSUMPTION TO WITHSTAND DIFFERENTIAL POWER ANALYSIS FOR SMART CARDS,” the entire contents of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
This invention was made with Government support of Grant No. 0098361, awarded by the NSF. The Government has certain rights in this invention.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to logic and methods for signal-independent power consumption to withstand differential power analysis and other side-channel attacks.
2. Description of the Related Art
Electronic banking, e-commerce, virtual private networks and so on cannot operate without encryption technology and a secure implementation of the encryption technology. To obtain security, many strong encryption algorithms have been developed. While usually strong against mathematical attacks, Side Channel Attacks (SCAs) can reveal the secret key through information leaked by the hardware implementation of the encryption module. Differential Power Analysis (DPA) is based on the fact that logic operations have power characteristics that depend on the input data. Statistical analyses of measured power traces can be used to link the switching activities of the circuit to the secret key.
Different techniques have been tried to prevent this information leakage. On the algorithmic level, random process interrupts interleave dummy instructions to avoid sequential execution of the algorithm. Integration techniques, however, are able to resynchronize the power traces. Masking is a technique that prevents intermediate variables from depending on the knowledge of an easily-accessible subset of the secret key. DPA has been modified to handle masking. On the architectural level, techniques include adding random power consuming operations and duplicating logic with complementary operations. These procedures merely lower the side channel information and might easily be disabled through tampering. Active power signal filtering with power consumption compensation, passive filtering, battery on chip and a detachable power supply influence the power transfer itself. The first method lags behind the fast power fluctuations and physical dimensions limit the latter three.
None of the above methods provide satisfactory protection against attacks based on DPA.
The present invention solves these and other problems by providing logic whose power consumption is relatively independent of the logic transitions. In one embodiment, logic values are measured by charging and discharging capacitors using a relatively fixed amount of energy for each transition. In one embodiment, even though different capacitances are switched, the logic style provides the property of charging in every cycle a total capacitance with a constant value.
In one embodiment, a Sense Amplifier Based Logic (SABL) achieves this goal by switching the output independently of the input sequence and by having a relatively constant load capacitance equal to all internal nodes combined with one of the balanced output loads. In SABL, the combination of dynamic and differential logic shares a capacitance for the output transitions. In one embodiment, SABL makes the output events equal by charging at every event the same capacitance value: one of the balanced load capacitances and the sum of all the internal node capacitances.
In one embodiment, the SABL gate is realized by providing a sense amplifier half of a flip-fl | [

The White House is ordering a review of the programs that transfer military hardware from the Pentagon to local police departments, according to news reports. The review will examine the decade-old program that has allowed hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of hardware, ranging from body armor to mine-resistant trucks, to be transferred from the military to state and local police departments to help fight terrorism and the war on drugs.
The high-level review comes in the midst of continued tensions in Ferguson, Missouri, where police deployed heavy weaponry — including body armor, automatic weapons, mine-resistant trucks and other equipment, to try to control crowds protesting the Aug. 9 death of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager who was shot by a white policeman.
As America scaled back its presence in Afghanistan and Iraq in 2012, more military gear was given to local police arsenals. In June, an ACLU report warned of the "excessive militarization" of local law enforcement.
In addition, the federal government gave out billions in grants to local agencies to purchase new weaponry in the wake of the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
Two senior administration officials said Saturday that the review will examine whether the programs are appropriate, the amount of training provided for using military equipment, and how well the government audits the use of the money and equipment by local police departments. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the review by name.
The review will be led by White House staff including the Domestic Policy Council, the National Security Council, the Office of Management and Budget and agencies such as the departments of Defense, Homeland Security, Justice and Treasury. The officials say the review will be coordinated with Congress, where several lawmakers have called for a re-examination of the military-to-police programs.
“The whole country and every representative and senator have seen the visuals, and at some level, it made all of us uncomfortable,” Sen. Claire McCaskill (D.-Mo.), a member of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, told the New York Times. “It’s a moment where we can take a timeout and look at these policies.”
One of the programs used to transfer surplus military hardware to local police agencies predates Sept. 11 and comes under the purview of the Defense Logistics Agency through its Law Enforcement Support Office (LESO). That office determines what material is available, putting out a catalog and processing requests from law enforcement agencies.
On its website, the agency explains the reasoning behind the program: "Every dollar's worth of property reutilized is a tax dollar saved."
On Monday, Obama acknowledged that the images of well-armed police confronting protesters with combat weapons in Ferguson made it useful to review how local law enforcement agencies have used federal grants that permit them to obtain heavier armaments.
"There is a big difference between our military and our local law enforcement, and we don't want those lines blurred," Obama told reporters at the White House. "That would be contrary to our traditions."

New York Fashion Week doesn’t always present the most wearable beauty trends – case and point: the human hair nails at Libertine (shudder).
But the dreamy coloured temples and foreheads at Anna Sui had us hook, line and sinker.
One could expect no less from Pat McGrath, responsible for the multi-tonal sunset strobe that draped over six chosen model’s faces. The makeup maestro posted the kaleidoscopic look on her Instagram stories, sharing that her own MTHRSHPIII and MTHRSHPV were used.
The technique, while bright and bold with block-coloured brows, is reminiscent of Rihanna’s 2017 Met Gala look, which put contouring method ‘draping’ on the map.
Back then, draping was essentially known as contouring with blusher. And sure enough, beige, browns and bronzes were soon swapped out for cherry temples in fashion shoots, and even on the streets. The term itself was actually coined by Marc Jacobs Beauty when they launched the product Beauty Air Blush Soft Glow Duos (£28).
And while using varying tones of plums, hot pinks and peaches for 3D-cheekbones is nothing new, makeup artists are now taking it to a whole new drool-worthy level using blues, greens, oranges and yellows.
The strategic pop-of-colour placement is usually centred around the tops of the cheekbones and temples, framing the eyes and often transitioning into eyeshadow, too. But the forehead is occasionally brought into play, giving us major superhero vibes.
And while this may have come from RiRi, the runway and fashion shoots, we can definitely see people rocking this on the streets. So grab your most colourful palette and get ready to roll… | [

The latest fabric and furniture trends from Proposte 2023 and Milan Design Week
Sydney interior designer Marco Meneguzzi recently attended the exclusive Proposte 2023 Fabric and Furnishings Fair in April, before heading to Milan for Salon Del Mobile. He shares his key takeaways in terms of what’s on trend.
In its 30th edition, Proposte 2023 was held over three sunny days in April in the charming town of Cernobbio on Lake Como. A highlight of this event is the series of pop-up exhibitions that take place, with designers and artisans showcasing their collections in local apartments, restaurants and shops. It’s a charming and intimate way to view the collections and meet the makers.
We are designing our homes to be more comfortable and cosier than ever, with calming, neutral colour palettes inspired by nature and including natural materials. Bringing the outside in continues to be a key trend, with a focus on linens, rustic textures and a more unrefined look.
Key fabric trends from Proposte 2023:
- Traditional artisanal techniques which included glazed fabrics and stonewashed cord linen
- Use of sustainable fabrics such as flax linen and hemp
- Soft, earthy hues and rustic textures
- Muted neutral tones, off-set by sage green and soft pink
- Expressive pattern and layering
The artisanal trend continued at Salon Del Mobile. Taking its cue from the fashion world, woven leather was used across furniture and accessories, including trays, planters, chairs and side tables.
Thin is in! Thin furniture, including the thinnest of thin (and most expensive!) travertine tables and super slimline bathroom fixtures, which saw taps as thin as a 20 cent piece.
As seen at Proposte, soft, muted colours dominated, with pink and green leading the trend.

Rural historic and artistic heritage
Located inside the Episcopal Palace, this is one of the first diocesan museums in Catalonia. It has rooms dedicated to prehistory, important collections of Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque art and a space dedicated to salt sculptures from the Cardona mines.
The museum preserves important pre-Romanesque works, such as the two fragments of the Orant and Cavaller mural paintings from Sant Quirze de Pedret, whose central nave is reproduced here.
In terms of Gothic art, it is worth highlighting different examples of mural painting, such as the altarpiece of the Lord's Supper, attributed to Jaume Ferrer I. | [

Control and monitor eight 12-bit analog inputs, two optically isolated digital inputs and two solid-state relay outputs via any 10/100BaseT Ethernet connection with the eI/O-170E-OEM multifunction I/O module.
The module provides eight single-ended or four differential A/D inputs that are software configurable for 0-5V, 0-10V, +/-5V, and +/-10V ranges. The A/D inputs support floating/non-referenced or ground referenced selections. This makes the A/D inputs ideal for measuring floating signal sources such as outputs of transformers, thermistors, and battery-powered devices. Additionally, the A/D inputs can operate in bipolar or unipolar modes.
The digital inputs are dry contact, switch-sensing inputs that are internally biased with 5VDC. When the contact closes, current flows through the circuit and an input condition is detected. The inputs are optically isolated and provide 1000VDC isolation to ground. The solid-state Form A SPST relays can switch up to 60VDC at 2.5A. Solid-state relays improve upon mechanical relays by having no moving parts, operating silently and having virtually unlimited switching cycles.
The eI/O-170E-OEM receives power via a removable spring-clamp terminal block. The lever-style clamping mechanism requires no tools, which simplifies field installation. The module is powered by your 9-30VDC source, or select from a variety of Sealevel power supply options. I/O connections to field wiring are simplified via removable 3.5mm terminal blocks.
Perfect for applications requiring an embedded Ethernet I/O solution, the OEM module includes 3/4″ metal standoffs that simplifies mounting in your enclosure or cabinet. The metal standoffs also allow you to connect multiple OEM boards together in a stack. Standard operating temperature range is 0C to +70C, while status LEDS show power and I/O activity. Additionally, LEDs on the RJ45 connector display Ethernet link and communication activity.
Communicate with eI/O Ethernet digital I/O modules using industry standard Modbus TCP protocol or use the Sealevel SeaMAX API software libraries from your application program. Sealevel’s SeaMAX software drivers and utilities make installation and operation easy using Microsoft Windows operating systems.
The Sealevel Modbus Connect app for iOS allows you to access the registers, coils and discrete I/O of your Sealevel Modbus devices and is available on the App Store. Use the app to remotely access I/O in the field or for testing and troubleshooting during application development. The Sealevel Mod+ Connect app is an easy-to-use diagnostic utility that allows you to monitor, test and troubleshoot Sealevel eI/O and SeaI/O modules using your iPhone or iPod touch. | [

City cracking down on parking violations with new equipment The city of Los Angeles is cracking down on parking violations with new equipment. The new equipment, which includes a camera and radar, is being used to identify and ticket violators. The city is also using the equipment to measure the amount of parking space available in different areas. This information is being used to make adjustments to the amount of parking available in the city.
2. New Equipment to Help Enforce Parking Regulations
The City of Toronto is cracking down on parking parking control equipment violations with two new pieces of equipment. The first is a license plate reader, which will be used to scan the license plates of parked vehicles and compare them to a database of vehicles with outstanding parking tickets. The second is a boot, which will be placed on the vehicles of drivers with three or more outstanding parking tickets.
The license plate reader will be mounted on a tow truck and will scan the license plates of parked vehicles as the truck drives by. If a vehicle has three or more outstanding parking tickets, the driver will be issued a notice and the vehicle will be towed.
The boot will be placed on the vehicles of drivers with three or more outstanding parking tickets. The boot will prevent the vehicle from being driven until the driver pays the outstanding tickets.
The City of Toronto hopes that these new pieces of equipment will help to reduce the number of parking violations and make parking in the city more fair for everyone.
3. How the New Equipment Will Work
The City of New York is cracking down on parking violators with new equipment that will make it easier to enforce the rules. The new system, which is already being tested in some areas, includes sensors that can detect when a car is parked in a no-parking zone and send a ticket to the owner.
The sensors are designed to be installed in the ground and will be connected to a central database that will keep track of all the parking violations. The database will be accessible to Parking Enforcement Officers, who will be able to issue tickets to the owners of the vehicles that are violating the rules.
The new system is expected to be fully operational by the end of the year, and the city is hopeful that it will help to reduce the number of parking violations. | [

Governor Quinn Announces First Ever Charging Station Network for Route 66 Electric Corridor
CHICAGO - Governor Pat Quinn today announced an investment of $1 million to establish a network of charging stations for electric vehicles along historic Route 66 through Illinois. The network will support commuter and tourist driving for the growing electric vehicle (EV) sector. Today's announcement is part of Governor Quinn's agenda to drive Illinois toward a sustainable future.
"We are building a 21st century infrastructure across Illinois and we need to make sure that it is sustainable for future generations," Governor Quinn said. "This new project exemplifies Illinois' place as the innovation capital of the Midwest, with cutting-edge business practices that create jobs and encourage sustainability."
The state has joined local governments and the private sector to create the Illinois Route 66 Electric Corridor, a partnership that connects communities along the 300-mile stretch from Lake Michigan to the Mississippi River in the Metro East area with a network of high-power EV charging stations. The network will make it possible for EV drivers to travel between Chicago and St. Louis, two of the key urban markets for EVs in the nation.
The cities of Plainfield, Dwight, Pontiac, Normal, Lincoln, Springfield, Carlinville and Edwardsville will each install one or more fast charging stations that are easily accessible from historic Route 66, allowing EV drivers to retrace its original pathway. Each of the seven charging points in the network will include one fast charging station capable of charging vehicles with either CHAdeMO or SAE connectors within 15-20 minutes and one level 2 (240/120 volt) charging station. Installation of the charging stations will begin this month, with targeted completion by summer 2015.
The project is supported by auto manufacturers, including BMW, Illinois-based Mitsubishi and Nissan, which is contributing the charging station to be installed in Edwardsville.
"The State of Illinois' Route 66 EV corridor is consistent with Mitsubishi Motors North America's desire to affect a broader acceptance of EVs through user-friendly infrastructure," MMNA General Manager of Corporate Communications Dan Irvin said. "It is our belief that projects like this will help our state maximize the possibilities of EVs."
"Residents and visitors alike will soon be able to enjoy the sites, attractions and mystique of the state's Historic Route 66 with easy access to charging stations for their electric vehicles," Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity Director Adam Pollet said. "It's truly an electrifying addition to the ‘mile after magnificent mile' to be discovered in Illinois."
The University of California - Davis, one of the world's leading universities on sustainable transportation, provided technical assistance for project planning.
"Illinois has one of the better combinations of price and carbon emissions per kilowatt-hour of electricity in the nation," Gustavo Collantes, with the UC Davis Policy Institute and lead of the Zero Emission MAP initiative, said. "This infrastructure has the clear potential to save drivers money while delivering environmental benefits to the state and the nation." | [

Doody's Review ServiceReviewer: Gayle M. Timmerman, PhD, RN (University of Texas at Austin School of Nursing)
Description: This book addresses a wide variety of issues in nursing and healthcare, providing "a snapshot of the present and a vision of the future.
Purpose: The purpose is to increase awareness regarding the issues affecting nurses, with the emphasis on exploring opportunities so that a desired future can be created. This book is based on the conceptual framework of futurists Hancock and Bezold in which comparison of the probable future with that of the preferred future enables the development of strategies to achieve what is desired.
Audience: The intended audience is nurses and nursing students. The content is appropriate for both audiences, but is best suited for those who are already familiar with the basics of professional issues in nursing. It would need to be used with a more basic text if included in an introductory professional socialization course.
Features: The chapters address issues in nursing and society, practice and education, administration, professional accountability, and research. Unique features include the futuristic conceptual framework, the expertise of the multiple authors, and useful appendixes that provide further resources.
Assessment: This book provides a proactive (rather than reactive) approach that can be used to guide the future of the nursing profession. The futuristic focus of the book provides a unique perspective that does not replicate the many other available books that discuss important nursing issues. It is a must read for nurses in leadership positions who can potentially influence the future. | [

The Gree were a species of tentacled gray cephalopods from the planet Gree. Each Gree had six tentacles and an over-sized head, in comparison to baseline and near-human body proportions, and stood between 0.8 and 1.2 meters tall. Gree evolved in a Type II atmosphere, and generally covered their lower faces with odd spongy devices (presumably breath masks) in Type I atmospheres.
Biology and appearanceEdit
This species were a six-tentacled race of cephalopod creatures that had gray skin with large sad-looking eyes along with tall foreheads. These features supported an immense brain sac which flopped oddly behind their heads. There was no visible mouth present on their faces though it was thought that multiple fleshy folds beneath the eyes served vocal oral communication needs. Their evolution on their homeworld meant that they were comfortable in Type II atmospheres with Type I being unpleasant to them. As such, when travelling through such an environment, they wore odd spongy communication devices to cover their communication folds.
Gree possessed multiple tentacles with each holding a particular function. The first pair served as fine manipulators, another as heavy grippers, and the third as ambulators. This last pair was used to help a Gree move about its environment where its appearance was that of a shambling mound of gray flesh. Typically, Gree rarely ever grew more than a meter and a half in terms of height.
This advanced civilization was noted as being one of the oldest and most ancient in the galaxy. Much of their own history was shrouded to the Gree themselves with them knowing little of their own past with the secrets of their origins being lost. According to most scholars, the Gree were believed to had originated on their own homeworld of Gree hundreds of thousands of years ago. Following a long period of evolution, it was thought that they had developed some form of hyperspace technology whereupon they moved to explore the stars. This ancient era when their civilization flourished was known to Gree historians as "the most ancient and forgotten days". By 100,000 BBY, they were known to had shared the galaxy with a number of other races which included the likes of the Celestials, Kwa, Sharu, Columi, Taung and Humans. This period would see them come into conflict with the advanced extragalactic Kwa Holdings which stretched between 27,000 BBY to 25,200 BBY. Eventually, they were pushed back to their borders by the aggressive expansions and military actions of the Rakata's Infinite Empire.
Sometime during their history, the Gree encountered Abeloth, the Bringer of Chaos, when she had escaped from her prison. In the Histories of the Killik Thuruht hive, a panel depicted a group of Gree sacrificing several members of a large, saurian species to Abeloth on her planet.
At some point in history, Gree also settled on Coruscant. In 3,643 BBY, during the Old Republic era much of Coruscant's lower level constructions, such as power production and waste processing was still of Gree technology. At the time, there was a delegation of Gree droids present on Coruscant to oversee the maintenance of these machines.
By the time of the last days of the Galactic Republic and the rise of the Empire, their glory days were long over, and their history and technological secrets mostly lost. They became an obscure species, known only to specialists in alien cultures such as Clone trooper commander CC-1004. CC-1004 adopted the name "Gree" to demonstrate his knowledge of galactic species, knowing that anyone who commented on his chosen name would share his interest in sentientology.
Still, the Gree of that era were able to operate and build some unique items. Count Dooku's personal Geonosian solar sailer was fitted with an ancient, mysterious sail of Gree manufacture On the other hand, Gree were almost entirely unfamiliar with standard galactic technology. They were particularly contemptuous of droids, which were not a part of Gree technology.
Gree society at its height had four castes: researchers who produced new devices, crafters who manufactured them, operators who worked those devices, and administrators who ran the government. Each caste was further divided into several guilds, and each world in the Gree Enclave was ruled by a council of guildmasters. Gree marked their foreheads with hieroglyphic tattoos to denote caste and rank. As Gree engineering reached its zenith, the operators came to dominate the other castes. Eventually, the researchers and crafters disappeared entirely. Their society became apathetic, with the operators and administrators concerned only with maintaining their cultural purity and keeping what devices they could still understand in operation.
The Gree language made use of metaphors based on geometry and colors which other species had difficulty understanding.

Studying neuronal processes such as synaptic summation, dendritic physiology and neural network dynamics requires complex spatiotemporal control over neuronal activities. The recent development of neural photosensitization tools, such as channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2), offers new opportunities for non-invasive, flexible and cell-specific neuronal stimulation. Previously, complex spatiotemporal control of photosensitized neurons has been limited by the lack of appropriate optical devices which can provide 2D stimulation with sufficient irradiance. Here we present a simple and powerful solution that is based on an array of high-power micro light-emitting diodes (micro-LEDs) that can generate arbitrary optical excitation patterns on a neuronal sample with micrometre and millisecond resolution. We first describe the design and fabrication of the system and characterize its capabilities. We then demonstrate its capacity to elicit precise electrophysiological responses in cultured and slice neurons expressing ChR2.

Online games to support maths development have become increasingly popular in recent years. However, teachers and parents have always made and used paper-based resources too, often sharing ideas. According to educationalist Lorna M. Campbell, reusing and repurposing ideas is common practice in education. If you spot a good idea for a fractions maths game, use it to make your own games.
- Skill level:
- Moderately Easy
Things you need
- A4 paper (or preferably card)
- Felt pen
Take inspiration from the BBC and make a fractions comparison game. (Please see Ref. 2). Theirs is an online game but you can make a similar game, and many others, on paper. Begin by folding a piece of A4 paper into half lengthwise.
Fold the paper in half again at 90 degrees to the first fold. Then fold the paper in half again in the same way as the second fold. Open out the paper and you will have eight rectangles.
Write an “eighth” fraction on each rectangle with a felt pen. Use the fractions: 1/8, 2/8, 3/8, 4/8, 5/8, 6/8, 7/8 and 8/8. Cut along the fold lines with scissors to make cards.
Follow the same procedure with another piece of A4 paper but this time make cards bearing the fractions: 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 1/2, 2/2, 1 (whole) and a joker card. The joker card can be any fraction a player wants.
Shuffle the cards and deal them all out, one by one, to yourself and an opponent. Look at your cards in secret. Play a card and say “higher,” “lower” or “same value.”
Explain to your opponent that she has to play a card showing a higher, lower or equal value fraction accordingly. When she has played a card correctly, she is allowed to say “higher,” “lower” or “equal value.” Then it is your turn to play again.
Tell your opponent that if either of you can’t play, the other can play again. Any disputes about the comparative values of fractions should be resolved with friendly and educational discussion. The winner is the one who plays all their cards first.
Shuffle the cards and place them in a pile face down. Draw the top card and place it face upwards. Read out the fraction.
Tell your opponent she must predict whether the next card turned over will be higher, lower, or of equal value. When she has made her prediction, turn over the card to see if the prediction was correct. If so, she gets to make another prediction.
Take a turn at making a prediction yourself when your opponent predicts incorrectly. Continue the game until all the cards have been used. The player who made the longer correct run of predictions is the winner.
Make a similar set of eight cards, four with “+” signs and four with “-” signs. Shuffle these and place them next to the other stack. Make sure both stacks are face down.
Ask your opponent to pick up a fraction card and turn it over. Ask her to pick up a plus or minus card and turn that over to see whether she needs to do an addition or subtraction calculation. Now she should pick up another fraction card.
Tell your opponent she must correctly add the fractions or subtract the smaller fraction from the larger one. Sometimes two fractions of the same value will be drawn along with a minus card but this just adds more fun. If your opponent makes a mistake in her answer, she must have another go. If she is correct, it is your turn.
Tips and warnings
- Make more cards with other fractions, such as thirds, fifths and sevenths to add further educational value to the games.
- You can get plenty of ideas from educational websites. Please see Resources section.

About the MCC Rally
The California Mobile Command Center (MCC) Rally was inaugurated in 2009 at the suggestion of the California Fire Chiefs Association (CFCA), Communications Section. Held each May, the Rally allows emergency managers and public safety professionals to see up-close the capabilities of the command and communications resources in the region while exchanging ideas for developing or enhancing their own mobile communications units and understanding how to work together in a major event. | [

We’ve all been there. It’s a new year, and you decide this is when you’re going to buckle down and eat healthy because you “could stand to lose a few pounds.” You make baked chicken and broccoli for dinner and pay close attention to portion sizes. And just about as fast as you decide to make these changes, you determine baked chicken and broccoli for dinner every night just isn’t for you. You need flavor and variety! Combining new flavors with highly nutritious ingredients can create meals that taste great while promoting good health.
The right herbs and spices can transform a meal. Think cinnamon, vanilla, cumin, oregano, thyme, ginger, garlic, and basil. Cinnamon and vanilla really enhance the flavor of plain Greek or non-dairy yogurt, ginger is a great addition to stir-fry recipes, and the warm and earthy flavor of cumin enriches the taste of vegetable or bean soups. Get creative with your combinations to keep things interesting.
Herbs and spices not only add flavor, but they contain anti-inflammatory properties and good-for-you minerals. Here’s a cool fact: onions, garlic, and cilantro contain components that actually help to rid the body of certain heavy metals. It’s a win-win-win!
Eat What You Enjoy
If you’re not a fan of certain “healthy” foods, then I’m giving you permission not to eat them. Seriously! Kale is not the only source of vitamin C, calcium, and potassium. It’s still possible to consume a healthful and balanced diet and obtain the nutrients you need from a variety of foods that you actually enjoy.
Your mouth—and your gut—will appreciate more variety in the plant-based foods you consume. The majority of the immune system is housed in the gut, so eating different fruits and vegetables is a big plus for your overall health. Be open to tasting new foods you may not have had before.
A healthy, balanced diet is going to look different for everyone because of unique food preferences and schedules. Rather than restricting what you love, focus on adding nutrient-dense foods when you’re able. Add a teaspoon of chia seeds to your smoothie, sprinkle nutritional yeast on broccoli, or mix in some lentils or chickpeas to your soups and salads. Upping your nutrition bit by bit is an easier approach to being healthy instead of overhauling your entire way of eating. After all, the best health habits are the ones you stick with!
