Today we borrow freely from a piece published by the University of Minnesota, Center for Spirituality and Healing. After all, why should we try to reinvent the wheel? When it comes to understanding the mind-body connection, it’s hard to improve on such a well-done description?
What exactly is meant by the word “mind?”
It’s important to note that “mind” is not synonymous with brain. Instead, in our definition, the mind consists of mental states such as thoughts, emotions, beliefs, attitudes, and images. The brain is the hardware that allows us to experience these mental states.
Mental states can be fully conscious or unconscious. We can have emotional reactions to situations without being aware of why we are reacting. Each mental state has a physiology associated with it—a positive or negative effect felt in the physical body. For example, the mental state of anxiety causes you to produce stress hormones.
Many mind-body therapies focus on becoming more conscious of mental states and using this increased awareness to guide our mental states in a better, less destructive direction.
What is the history of mind-body connection?
Awareness of the mind-body connection is by no means new. Until approximately 300 years ago, virtually every system of medicine throughout the world treated the mind and body as a whole. But during the 17th century, the Western world started to see the mind and body as two distinct entities. In this view, the body was kind of like a machine, complete with replaceable, independent parts, with no connection whatsoever to the mind.
This Western viewpoint had definite benefits, acting as the foundation for advances in surgery, trauma care, pharmaceuticals, and other areas of allopathic medicine. However, it also greatly reduced scientific inquiry into humans’ emotional and spiritual life, and downplayed their innate ability to heal.
In the 20th century, this view gradually started to change. Researchers began to study the mind-body connection and scientifically demonstrate complex links between the body and mind. Integrative psychiatrist James Lake, MD, of Stanford University, writes that “extensive research has confirmed the medical and mental benefits of meditation, mindfulness training, yoga, and other mind-body practices.”
What are body-mind therapies?
Related to mind-body therapies are therapies that use the body to affect the mind, such as yoga, tai chi, qigong, and some types of dance (these are sometimes called body-mind therapies). Ultimately mind-body and body-mind therapies are interrelated: the body affects the mind, which in turn impacts the body (and the mind.)
- Patient support groups
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy
- Creative arts therapies (art, music, or dance)
- Tai chi
- Guided imagery
Added to this list is the Orthopedic Manual Therapy and Christy’s Body Whisperer Technique, which combines the science of Craniosacral Therapy (nervous system) and Visceral Mobilization (organ movement), used at Christy Sanger Therapies.
These are a holistic combination of techniques that align joints, balances the body, creates efficiency and fluidity of motion of the organs, and relaxes the nervous system. The manual techniques are combined with lifestyle changes that allow the body to maintain the changes made on the table. | [

Women returning to work expect smaller salariesWomen who left their careers to get married or have children would on average settle for a monthly salary of 1.75 million won ($1,480) should they get reemployed, a survey of 274 such women aged 30 or older showed.
According to the poll conducted by the Center for Large and Small Business Cooperation under the Federation of Korean Industries, women who interrupted their careers - often referred to by the Korean acronym gyeongdannyeo - wished to receive on average 88.4 percent of the wage they previously earned.
About 43.7 percent wished to receive between 1.5 million won and 2 million won, while 41.8 percent wanted to get between 1 million won and 1.5 million won.
Almost half of the participants said their career was interrupted by having a child, whereas 15.7 percent cited marriage. Nearly 10 percent said they left because they didn’t see a future in their occupation.
One reason the salary expectations were so low is because many of the women were not at their jobs very long before leaving.
But another is that women in Korea usually already make less than their male counterparts. According to Statistics Korea last year, women receive a monthly wage that is, on average, 63.1 percent of what their male counterparts took home.
Women who quit their jobs often also have difficulty getting rehired in Korea, where there are already fewer women in the workforce. As of the first quarter, the percentage of economically active women aged 15 to 64 was 56.9 percent, much lower than the OECD average of 62.8 percent, according to the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family.
Lim, 40, is one such gyeongdannyeo. She worked at a software unit of a conglomerate for two years and quit when she got married. She decided to get a job after her children became seniors in elementary school and applied to several companies, but she couldn’t even get an interview. She gave up and obtained a beauty therapist certificate. She now works at a plastic surgery clinic, and considers herself very lucky to have found a job at all.
“The door open to gyeongdannyeo is still very narrow,” said Kim Dong-joon, a senior researcher at the center.
The survey found 43.9 percent of the respondents consider age the biggest barrier to getting reemployed, followed by having to take care of the household and children at 20.4 percent. Responsibilities at home was one reason the distance between the home and workplace was the top consideration when it came to job searching, cited by 31.1 percent of respondents. Other priorities included whether or not the new job was full-time and the level of salary.

One of the core underlying technologies utilised by a range of Maptek applications is the 3D viewer. It provides a way of visualising a wide range of spatial data in a three dimensional space. This includes for example, PointStudio which has a key application of viewing the data returned by our laser scanners.
This allows the results of what has been captured in the real world to be displayed in the application’s 3D view and the manipulation of the camera to intuitively look around the space. This data would be impossible to understand looking at the numbers alone. However, in this way we can tap into the advanced capacities of the human brain for processing visual information. Rather than looking at the data points individually, the entire scene can be taken in. It is critical that the system is designed to efficiently display large amounts of data while still providing a high quality user experience.
Being able to manipulate the view and investigate the scene in real time is critical for allowing the user to focus on the data, and we aim to provide this for the large data sets that customers want to work with. Unlike, for example, many video games which display large beautiful worlds, we cannot know beforehand what will be displayed and then finetune accordingly to ensure maximum performance and functionality.
Our graphics team has to develop flexible approaches that will handle all user requirements and provide a useful visualisation. We are constantly working to improve the capabilities of the viewer to facilitate the ability for application teams to leverage that power to create domain specific visualisations.
The way the results are shown can have a massive impact on how the data is interpreted. For example the drillhole correlation view in Eureka can dynamically move the drillholes in order to position them side by side and highlight the connected seams across the holes. Often by carefully curating what parts of the data are shown, at what part of the workflow, and in what manner (colour, positioning or size), the data can be optimised for effectively completing specific tasks.
The graphics team plays an important role in continuing to support Maptek applications, adding new features, improving efficiency and keeping up to date with new technology to facilitate a deeper understanding of complex data.
John Stokes asked me more questions about the details and practical applications in our latest podcast.

An early onset progressive motor neuron disorder in Scyl1-deficient mice is associated with mislocalization of TDP-43.
J Neurosci. 2012 Nov 21;32(47):16560-73.

Pelletier and colleagues demonstrate that mice deficient in Scyl1 may be a new model for early onset progressive motor neuron disease with some features reminiscent of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The study confirms previous work by Schmidt et al., which had shown that the underlying gene defect of the mouse mutant "muscle deficient" is a loss-of-function mutation in Scyl1. SCYL1 is a ubiquitously expressed protein with a number of suggested cellular “housekeeping” functions, including COP1-mediated retrograde protein trafficking and the cytoplasmic shuttling of transfer RNA (Chafe and Mangroo, 2010). Remarkably, mice with constitutive deletion of the gene are viable and display a motor neuron-centric phenotype. In contrast, homozygous deletion of several other housekeeping genes associated with ALS and other motor neuron diseases typically results in embryonic lethality. Pelletier et al. speculate that other members of the SCYL family may be able to compensate for the loss of SCYL1.
Intriguingly, spinal cord motor neurons of Scyl1-/- mice display cytoplasmic inclusions of TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) and ubiquilin 2, two proteins linked to ALS. Cytoplasmic TDP-43 inclusions are a pathological hallmark of most ALS cases, frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin aggregates, and some other neurodegenerative diseases (Neumann et al., 2006; Deng et al, 2011). Similarly, ubiquilin 2 builds up in cytoplasmic inclusions found in many ALS cases (Deng et al, 2011). The presence of this type of neuropathology in Scyl1-deficient mice is striking, and provides further evidence that the mislocalization of TDP-43 and ubiquilin 2 may be a central event in motor neuron degeneration. However, it is still unclear whether neurodegeneration is triggered by a loss of function of these proteins after aggregation, gain of a toxic property, or a combination of the two. Researchers have developed a number of transgenic rodent models that express wild-type or mutant human TDP-43 and display a range of motor deficits (reviewed in Tsao et al., 2012). Many of these models exhibit intranuclear TDP-43 aggregates as well as diffuse cytoplasmic ubiquitin staining, while cytoplasmic TDP-43 inclusions are much rarer. This observation suggests that the formation of cytoplasmic TDP-43 inclusions per se is not essential for the development of disease, and that sequestration into nuclear inclusions may also result in loss of function leading to increased neuronal vulnerability. In addition, TDP-43 may adopt new toxic properties once mislocalized. Two more questions are whether SCYL1 regulates the homeostasis of TDP-43 and ubiquilin 2 directly and what the molecular mechanisms thereof may be.
Although so far there are no reports of Scyl1 mutations in human disease, a more complete understanding of SCYL1’s role in maintaining motor neuron viability in mice will likely provide important insights into the mechanisms of motor neuron disease. Without a doubt, this new mouse model provides a valuable tool for investigating the molecular basis of motor neuron degeneration.

The Rune Factory franchise is now 2 games old, and a third is on its way. For the unfamiliar, the game's designer Yoshifumi Hashimoto describes the series as:
"Harvest Moon where you wield a sword".
That'll teach those lousy crops not to grow. The first two games were released on the DS handheld and did well in reviews, but the third will be hitting Wii, in Rune Factory: Frontier. This was announced by publishers Marvelous in the latest edition of Famitsu.
No release date is set, but Rune Factory: Frontier is expected this year.

New KBS drama?Uncontrollably Fond? will air its first episode on July 6. With all the anticipation surrounding the series, many are wondering if it could actually live up to claims that it is the new?Descendants of the Sun.?
The romantic drama stars Bae Su-ji?Suzy? and Kim Woo Bin. They play the contrasting roles of top singer-actor Shin Joon Young and wacky documentary producer No Eul. Teasers for the show highlighted how Kim Woo Bin?s arrogant character falls in love with the quirky role played by Suzy. However, the light storyline suddenly turns into a drama when the two get involved in a vehicular accident.
K-drama fans also became more excited for?Uncontrollably Fond? episode one when the lead stars began posting more show teasers on their Instagram pages. These included exclusive behind-the-scenes photographs, still images from the show, and official?Uncontrollably Fond? posters.
Admittedly, many are also looking forward to the new KBS drama because of real-life controversies involving the series? lead actress. Just recently, Suzy Bae has been in the news a lot because of her rumored breakup with Korean heartthrob Lee Min Ho.
The doe-eyed beauty also fueled split speculations in her interview with Harper?s Bazaar Korea. In the feature story, Suzy explained that she was able to relate a lot to her new character in?Uncontrollably Fond.? She said No Eul is similar to her because they both had to?live for others,??make sacrifices,? then?after going through some things, she changed after a reality check.?
Suzy?s claims that No Eul and she share a lot in common have led many to think that she is referring to her break up with Lee Min Ho, who she dated for 17 months.
Another reason why K-drama fans are anticipating the new KBS series is due to claims that it could be the new?Descendants of the Sun.? However, it could be facing stiff competition with SBS??Doctors,? a new medical-themed love story starring Park Shin-Hye and Kim Rae-Wom.
?Doctors? rated high when it premiered last June, and the continuous rise in its viewership could mean trouble for?Uncontrollably Fond.? | [

Studios and streaming folks are making big promises to deliver more content—as they see it, more content means more profits. Guilds and others have taken notice and believe their members deserve a bigger slice of the financial pie. The creatives, however, are focused on the future and the effect that new technologies such as AI will have on their professional careers.
“I’ll need to see all those books for the past 10 years. Bank statements, complete list of clients and vendors. Hard copies printed out, my eyes only. All the information’s right here.” —Christian Wolff, The Accountant, Warner Bros., 2016
Somehow, in the M&E industry, it feels like there are those that get and those that get got. After a few insanely great barn burner films being shown in large, darkened rooms, theater owners are telling everyone that life is returning to normal, and people are rushing (begging even) to put their seats in seats.
Streamers are greenlighting projects in almost every country around the globe to keep their show/film rosters fresh, so folks don’t rotate into/out of their services. New studios are booked even before construction is complete. Senior studio executives are getting major bonuses for streamlining/restructuring their organizations (firing folks), renaming their streaming services (new lipstick, same hog), cheerleading the idea of bringing back old stuff as a giant step forward, and other great ideas just to get back to the position where they can pay shareholders their dividends.
Let’s get something straight at the outset here. We’re not returning to normal. This is not the new normal. It is simply normal… just different! Studios are pushing to make a profit pedaling their content everywhere possible—theater, pay–TV, streamer, TVOD (direct transaction), DVD, you name it.
Pay–TV (day/time home entertainment) is struggling to keep its bundled customers, even as people cut their bundled bill to select subscription/ad–supported/FAST services they want to watch on their personal/home screen. The global streaming services—Netflix, Amazon, Disney, WBD, Apple, Paramount, Hulu, Google YouTube, Pluto, Tubi, Tencent, iQIYI—and more than 200 national, regional, and specialty services—are focused on getting their unfair share of the market, which was valued at $90 billion last year and growing at a projected rate of 22% annually.
Studio and streaming bosses are telling Wall Street analysts they are very focused on creating/delivering a steady stream of content and will profitably deliver the video entertainment people want as well as superior shareholder profits. The picture they’re painting is so rosy that directors/talent and trade guild officers are saying their lawyers/accountants want a closer look at the books. For some reason, they feel their clients/members aren’t being properly paid for their long hours and expertise. At the same time, the creative production team wants to address how some of the new technologies that are being introduced will affect their professional future.
According to data from internationally recognized entertainment guru Bruce Nash (www.thenumbers.com), the US led video content production with nearly 24,000 projects last year, with an average production budget of slightly more than $37.5 million per project. It’s a big business that employs more than 45 million people, which is down over 4% over the past five years, even as demand and volume have remained strong.
Professionals in Nollywood, Bollywood, and the other “woods” are reaping the benefits from:
- Their countries’ regulations governing how many locally produced films/shows must be offered to streaming customers compared to international fare.
- The economics of producing content there for viewing here.
- The rising demand for content genre variety—drama, sci–fi, horror, thriller, rom-com, crime, etc.—that studios, networks, distributors, streamers can show locally, regionally, and globally.
As a result, US producers/talent agents, and guild officials feel it’s time to draw the line. The challenge is, it’s almost impossible to determine exactly if or how profitable films/shows really are because the most creative people in film/show houses are probably accountants. That doesn’t matter much except to directors and major talent who base their pay on a mix of front end or agreed upon initial salary and back–end payments based on global receipts as well as residuals based on reruns of the project. Or it can be simple negotiated salary for the show/film… done and done!
And of course, the WGA, DGA, SAG–AFTRA (writers, directors, screen actors—American Federation of Theater and Radio Artists) folks have something to say about | [

When we talk about “gateway” cities, Brooklyn is the real deal. Immigrants have come to the U.S. through Brooklyn for centuries, and the area’s exponential expansion has resulted in approximately 2.5 million residents, 33,000 businesses, 410,000 employees, and a legacy of culture and commerce that continues to send out roots. New York’s most populous borough offers lower operating costs and ample commercial and industrial space compared with Manhattan, two factors that have helped promote business growth and demand for area hotels.Downtown Brooklyn hosts New York City’s third-largest central business district after Midtown and Downtown Manhattan. Due to its proximity to Lower Manhattan and favorable local and regional mass transit access, Downtown Brooklyn benefits from a valuable position in the New York City area as a competitive office space alternative to New Jersey, Long Island, and Westchester County. The Downtown Brooklyn office market contains more than 11 million square feet of office space.
Commercial and residential developments boomed in Brooklyn following a rezoning initiative in 2004. Since 2006, almost $3.4 billion in private investment has been made in Downtown Brooklyn developments, resulting in over 5,200 residential units, 1,000 hotel rooms, 590,000 square feet of retail space, 236,000 square feet of office space, and an 18,000-seat sports arena 1. Billions of dollars in private investment and $300 million in public improvements are currently underway.
The MetroTech Center was conceived as a means of rejuvenating the downtown area and has generated over $1 billion in new investments over the past decade. Anchor tenants include JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Verizon, and the Bank of New York. The complex is integrated with the Polytechnic Institute of New York University, NYC College of Technology, and Long Island University.
Some 300 businesses occupy Brooklyn Navy Yard, representing a wide array of commerce, from filmmaking to ship building. An enclosed 15-acre production facility for Steiner Studios was developed on the site in 2004, creating the largest and most modern movie-making complex east of Los Angeles.
Construction on the 22-acre mixed-use Atlantic Yards Arena and Redevelopment Project started in March of 2010 at an estimated cost of $4.9 billion. The new development encompasses Barclays Center, an 850,000-square-foot sports and entertainment arena that will host the New Jersey Nets; 6,430 residential units; 628,000 square feet of commercial space; 256,000 square feet of retail space; and a 180-unit hotel.
The following table shows the ten-year unemployment trend for Brooklyn versus the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island MSA, the state of New York, and the U.S. as a whole.
While the numbers show Brooklyn’s unemployment to be well above that of the MSA and state, actual job growth paints a different picture. Design and management consulting jobs grew by approximately 20%, architecture jobs by 8%, and accounting jobs by 6% in 2008 2. Brooklyn-based film and television productions increased hiring by more than 50% the same year. The recession stalled employment at the end of 2008 and took a deeper toll in 2009. Unemployment stabilized in 2010, as new housing developments and an expanding restaurant industry reportedly helped create a need for new hires.
Downtown Brooklyn lies just a few minutes across the Brooklyn Bridge from Downtown Manhattan; an estimated 150,000 vehicles cross the bridge daily. Its location has made Brooklyn attractive for Manhattan-bound travelers looking to save money. More recently, Downtown Brooklyn has emerged as a tourist destination in and of itself.
Brooklyn Bridge Park, which opened in 2010, was named one of the “World’s Coolest New Tourist Attractions” by Travel and Leisure and was heralded as “a key and very promising early step in a larger project that includes the greening of the East River waterfront3.
Arts and cultural institutions include the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the second-largest art museum in New York City; the Strand Theater, whose expansion is scheduled for completion in 2013; the Brooklyn Transit Museum, which recently re-opened after extensive renovations; the 150-year-old Brooklyn Historical Society; and the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Each of these institutions is known worldwide and together they bring in hotel demand from a wide range of sources.
Lodging Market Overview
Brooklyn’s lodging industry comprises more than 40 hotels and approximately 3,650 rooms—a near doubling of the number of hotel rooms over the past five years. For decades, Downtown Brooklyn offered only one full-service hotel, the Marriott Brooklyn Downtown. But new and proposed high-quality, full-service branded and independent hotels are shifting the balance of lodging options in the borough.
Despite the financial challenges caused by the most recent recession, eight new hotels totaling 788 rooms were developed in the Greater Downtown Brooklyn area in 2010, with seven more | [

Community-led housing projects are gaining recognition as an essential part of the solution to England’s housing shortage. These projects take a range of sites, from small, difficult sites that are generally off-limits for developers to larger scale developments and turn them into housing that is an integral part of communities. In the process, they help meet deliverability requirements for local authorities, satisfy housing needs whilst harnessing greater consent for developments. With the emphasis now upon local authorities to deliver more, affordable homes, what are the best ways to engage with and plan for these types of development?
Join Westminster Briefing in partnership with the National Community Land Trust Network on the 23rd of July to learn how to best engage with and plan for Community-led housing projects in your local area. You will receive an up to date brief on the latest Government policy in this area and learn good practice in how to work with community-led housing as part of the housing solution.
Key issues to be addressed include:
- Updates to current policy surrounding community-led housing
- Working with community-led housing projects as part of the housing solution
- Creating affordable housing solutions by supporting such developments
- Increasing build-out rates through CLH
- Meeting housing needs through CLH developments
- Harnessing greater community consent for development
- Community-led housing and the low-carbon transition
About the event:
The event will open with an overview of the latest policy developments, Government actions and engaging with community-led housing developments. The following session will focus upon how to engage with and plan for community-led housing projects in your local area. Morning refreshments will be served upon arrival with a networking lunch to follow. Any special needs or dietary requirements should be notified to us upon booking.

Notch a series of wing dams throughout Pool 2 to improve channel border fish habitat. Wing dam notching will enable downstream scouring, which creates overwintering habitat.
The project area is in the middle and lower half of Pool 2, Upper Mississippi River, downstream of St. Paul, Minnesota, spanning Dakota, Ramsey and Washington counties, Minnesota.
In 2009, through the Navigation and Ecosystem Sustainability Program authority, or NESP, a project implementation report for the Pool 2 Wing Dam Modification Project was completed. The report established ecosystem restoration goals and specific performance measure indicators; specified the without-project condition or baseline for each performance measure indicator; and, for each separable element of the ecosystem restoration, identified specific target goals for each performance indicator.
The recommended plan as identified in the report includes notching 30 wing dams to improve channel border habitat for fish; 23 wing dams were proposed to have a single notch, and seven wing dams were proposed to have a double notch. The project delivery team evaluated the 30 wing dams identified in the report and determined that 17 wing dams could be notched to provide habitat benefit without negatively impacting the Corps’ navigation mission.
The plans and specifications were complete in July 2022 and a contract was awarded on November 3, 2022. Construction was complete on June 26 with a project dedication ceremony held in July.
NESP was authorized in the Water Resources Development Act of 2007 (Title VIII) to construct small-scale navigation improvements, seven new 1200-foot lock chambers and ecosystem/habitat restoration. Congress directed spending of $18 million for ecosystem restoration projects in fiscal year 2022.
Project design and construction, and operation and maintenance costs are 100% federally funded because the project is located on Corps lands.
Funds allocated to-date: $498,000

And a different index of refraction means light travels at a different speed, so in the simplest visualization, pmd in fiber looks like the drawing below, where each component of the polarized light travels at a different speed, causing dispersion. For other test methods for the determination of maturity of cotton fibers refer to test methods d 1464 and d 2480 13 the values stated in si units are to be regarded as standard no other units of measure are included in this standard. The cutback method begins by measuring the output power p y of the test fiber of known length l without disturbing the input conditions, the test fiber is cut back to a length of approximate 2 m without disturbing the input conditions, the test fiber is cut back to a length of approximate 2 m. Fiber micronaire is the function of maturity (the degree of the fiber secondary wall development) and fineness (linear density) (wakelyn et al, 2007) an instrument used globally for measuring cotton fiber maturity and fineness (along with several other properties) is the uster ® advanced fiber information system (afis. Two of the important cotton fiber quality and processing parameters are fiber maturity and fineness fiber maturity is the degree of development of the fiber's secondary wall, and fiber fineness is a measure of the fiber's linear density and can be expressed as mass per unit length.
The impact of cotton fiber maturity on fiber and yarn quality was compared among 64 bales, from eight different locations in 2008, 2009, and 2010 different levels of fiber maturity were obtained by using picker and stripper harvesters. Ł integrated methods measuring different properties and parameters at the same time o speeding up for maturity testing ł short fiber content - problems with the. The third test is the correlation analysis of this method with the method based on fiber cross-sectional measurements 18 different samples were collected for the cross-sectional analysis at the international textile center of texas tech university, and for the longitudinal analysis in our lab. The cufoff wavelength of a single mode fiber is the wavelength above which the fiber propagates only the fundamental mode measuring the cutoff length involves comparing the transmitted power from the test fiber with that of a reference fiber at different wavelength.
Another measure of fiber is acid detergent fiber (adf), a subset of ndf acid detergent fiber contains the poorly digestible cell wall components, namely, cellulose, lignin, and other very resistant substances. There are many different chemical entities that are classed as dietary fiber and there are distinct analytical methods to measure each of these the methods approved by codex alimentarius for the measurement of dietary fiber are shown below. The basic principle of measuring maturity in the longi- tudinal view is based on variability in ribbon width (fiber convolution) and intensity (fiber translucency. Maturity is important to the cotton industry because it relates to fiber's propensity to break when submitted to mechanical stress and it influences the quality of the goods produced from it (yarns and fabrics. Measurement of cotton fineness and maturity by different methods the crossed polarised light beams and fiber maturity is based upon the orientation of for measuring fibre fineness (cottons.
Indian journal of fibre & textile research vol 34, december 2009, pp 352-358 comparative study of different test methods used for the measurement of physical properties of cotton. Note: citations are based on reference standards however, formatting rules can vary widely between applications and fields of interest or study the specific requirements or preferences of your reviewing publisher, classroom teacher, institution or organization should be applied. For maturity algorithm, three different features are determined from a fiber image: 1) change in fiber width, 2) number of convolutions per unit length, and, 3) light transmitted through fibers mature fibers generally have more convolutions per unit length and hence show more changes in fiber width. Cotton maturity is an important fiber property that has proved difficult to measure accurately and quickly immature cotton fibers are weaker and more likely to break and cause neps when processed.
Despite the mic value representing a combination of fiber maturity and fineness of cotton fibers, the mic is an effective way of measuring fiber maturity of commercial cotton varieties thus, textile industry and agricultural marketing services have used the mic values as a key quality assessment parameter of determining the fiber maturity [ 1. The reference method to measure fiber maturity is the cross-section method, where 1 μm thick fiber cross-sections are evaluated under a microscope it is time consuming, tedious, and impractical for high volume measurement of fiber maturity. Recently, several methods have been developed to measure total antioxidant activity, based on different reaction mechanisms such as trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (teac) (12). This test method is also used to measure the length of fibers removed from a staple yarn, but such a measurement may not represent the fiber's staple length, as manufactured 12 because this test method requires measuring the length of only 50 fibers, it is not suitable for use in determining the number of long fibers that occur infrequently.

Lots of clean technology companies are looking to move into the oil and gas industry because of the boom in fracking shale energy, reports Todd Woody at the online news site Quartz.
Woody writes: "A Los Angeles company called OriginOil has developed a technology to help boost production of algae biofuels, one of the great green hopes for displacing fossil fuels and cutting planet-warming carbon emissions. Now OriginOil is repurposing its technology to serve the oil and gas industries as the fracking boom booms.
“'The reason we have put a lot of focus on oil and gas is that it’s a big industry—algae is a lot more small scale,' OriginOil chief executive Riggs Eckelberry tells Quartz.
"OriginOil isn’t alone when it comes to green tech entrepreneurs looking to green up Big Oil. Canadian startups in particular see money to be made helping tar sands drillers clean up their act, or at least the huge volumes of water used in oil and gas extraction."

Kanye West protégé Kid Cudi was arrested on Friday (June 11) in New York and charged with felony criminal mischief and possession of a controlled substance after authorities were called to respond to a disturbance involving the rapper and an unidentified woman.
A spokesman for the New York Police Department confirmed to MTV News that Cudi was arrested in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood on Friday. The spokesman, however, declined to provide additional information regarding the controlled substance found on the rapper.
Cudi was released in time to perform at the Bonnaroo festival in Tennessee early Saturday. "I really wanted to be here tonight," Cudi said after being introduced by MTV Movie Awards host Aziz Ansari. At press time, MTV News' request to Cudi's management for comment about the arrest had not been granted.
This is not the first time the upstart artist has had a run-in with the law. Late last year, the Cleveland native was arrested by cops in Los Angeles after a magazine shoot when residents complained about looters in the area. Cudi was held at gunpoint by police, who pressed the rapper and his entourage down to the ground in an effort to secure the premises. The "Day 'N' Nite" star was later released in a case of mistaken identity.
Just one month prior to the L.A. incident, Kid Cudi escaped being charged with a crime when a fan the rapper punched at a concert declined to press charges. The concert was in Vancouver and Cudi grew upset after a wallet was thrown in his direction onstage. Cudi caught the wallet and tossed the item back into the crowd. The young man, Michael Sharpe, caught the wallet then threw it back to the stage since it didn't belong to him. The rapper became agitated, perceiving Sharpe's act as a dis and began to pummel the fan. Sharpe, though, insisted it was a mistake and told TMZ he would not pursue any legal action against the rapper.
I'm not upset," Sharpe explained. "I'm not going to be that person. I just want to meet him and be like, 'I'm the guy you punched.' I'm not going to press charges."

Like quiting smoking. You know it is bad for you, but you can’t stop spending money on it There is a lot of social pressure to keep your former lethal habit going and you may not survive kicking the vice. I have a lot of empathy. I’d like to go to Israel, but I’m afraid I’m not ready… and I’m not sure Israel is ready to protect me either… or if I could protect myself from some of the leftist Israelis that I met in NYC or online.Sorry to make this personal.
) Cong. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, is a true friend of Israel. Her bill calling for a cutoff of US aid to the PA and a massive decrease of US aid to the UN in the event the UN upgrades the Palestinians’ diplomatic status is one of the most important pieces of pro-Israel legislation to be introduced in the US Congress in a generation. By announcing it opposes an aid cutoff, Israel undermined Ros-Lehtinen’s position. It betrayed its good friend. No doubt Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman were under great pressure from the IDF and from the Obama administration to call for continued international funding of the PA. But the public didn’t elect them with the expectation that they would abandon Israel’s national interest and harm its friends just because they feel the heat. (MORE | [

Please share and comment if you are against Obama cheap nfl jerseys supporting Iran!
As one final goodbye kiss to cheap ray bans Iran, Obama is supplying them with uranium, which can cheap oakleys sunglasses be turned into atomic weapons to use against us.
via thedailywire.com: As AP reports, the move to send Iran the uranium from Russia is supposedly to curry favor with Iran so it will remain committed to the nuclear deal it negotiated with the West:
Iran is to oakley outlet receive a huge shipment of natural uranium from Russia to compensate it for exporting tons of reactor coolant, diplomats say, in a move approved by the outgoing U.S. administration and other governments seeking to keep Tehran committed to a landmark nuclear pact. massage Two senior diplomats said the transfer recently agreed by the U.S. and five other world powers that negotiated the nuclear deal with Iran foresees delivery of 116 metric tons (nearly 130 tons) of natural uranium. U.N. Security Council approval is needed but a formality, considering five of those cheap jerseys powers are permanent Security Council members, they said.

Saw a Mauser yesterday, no receiver crest, marked "Kar 09" (I think?) on the left side, instead of the cast flash guard on the back of the bolt there was a metal plate. The bolt was turned down like a French Berthier. Rear sight was a center-post type. The barrel stuck out about an inch past the sight guards. The only '09's I know are Peru. Anyone got any ideas? | [

STANDARDISATION of PARTIAL STRENGTH COMPOSITE CONNECTIONS USING PRE-FABRICATED STEEL SECTIONS
Connections are usually designed as pinned which associated with simple construction or rigid which is associated with continuous construction. In actual situation, the connections behaviour falls between these two extreme cases. The use of partial strength or semi-rigid connections has been encouraged by Eurocode 3 and studies on the matter known as semi-continuous construction have proven that substantial savings in steel weight of the overall construction. Composite connections have been introduced in this paper to improve the performance of partial strength connection. The objective of this paper is to present the behaviour of full scale testing on standardized partial strength flush end-plate composite connections using pre-febricated section known as trapezoidal web profiled steel (TWP) sections. A method known as “component method” was introduced by SCI to predict the moment resistance of the connection. The results also showed that the proposed composite connection for the Trapezoid Web Profiled Steel Sections has a ductile behaviour and the connections can be categorized as partial strength connections which is suitable for semi-continuous construction. | [

A Piano Pitch Raise is a process that involves adjusting the tension in a piano's strings to raise its pitch to the correct level. This process is necessary when a piano's pitch has drifted too far from its ideal level, resulting in notes that are out of tune. During a pitch raise, a skilled Piano Tuner will adjust the tension in each string, carefully tuning each note across the piano's entire range.
Why Does a Piano's Pitch Change?
There are several reasons why a piano's pitch can change over time. One of the most common reasons is changes in temperature and humidity. Pianos are made from natural materials that are sensitive to changes in the environment. When the temperature and humidity fluctuate, the wood and metal parts of a piano can expand or contract, affecting the tension in the piano's strings and, ultimately, its pitch.
Another common reason for a piano's pitch to change is regular use. The repeated hammer strikes on the strings can cause them to stretch and lose tension over time, resulting in a gradual drop in pitch. Additionally, changes in string tension can occur due to a variety of other factors, including changes in the piano's overall condition, the age of the piano, and the quality of its components.
Why is a Piano Pitch Raise Necessary?
A Piano Pitch Raise is necessary for several reasons. First, playing an out-of-tune piano can be frustrating and disheartening for musicians. When a piano's pitch has drifted too far from its ideal level, the notes can sound off-key and inconsistent, making it difficult for musicians to play with accuracy and expression.
Second, an out-of-tune piano can affect the overall sound quality of a performance. When a piano's pitch is off, it can create dissonance and distortion, disrupting the harmony of the music and detracting from the overall listening experience.
Finally, neglecting to perform regular piano maintenance, including pitch regulation, can lead to more significant issues down the road. When a piano's pitch is allowed to drift too far from its ideal level, it can cause additional stress on the instrument's components, leading to costly repairs and, in extreme cases, irreparable damage.
Benefits of a Piano Pitch Raise
Performing a Piano Pitch Raise has several benefits for both the piano and the musician. Here are some of the most notable benefits:
- Improved sound quality: A properly tuned piano will produce accurate, consistent notes across its entire range, resulting in a more beautiful and harmonious sound.
- Better playing experience: Playing an in-tune piano is a more enjoyable and fulfilling experience for musicians. Accurate notes and consistent tuning allow for greater expression and nuance in playing, resulting in a more authentic and emotional performance.
- Extended lifespan of the piano: Regular pitch regulation can help prolong the lifespan of a piano by reducing stress on its components and preventing damage from occurring.
- Reduced risk of costly repairs: Neglecting regular piano maintenance, including pitch regulation, can lead to more significant issues down the road that require costly repairs. Regular pitch raises can help prevent these issues from occurring, saving musicians money in the long run.
Hence, the next time your Piano Tuner does a pitch raise, he is having to tune your whole piano twice in one visit, which means double the work. | [

Die Nassplatten-Technik ist eine sinnliche Erfahrung, der nichts in der Digitalfotografie gleichkommt. Sie verbindet handwerkliche und chemische Fertigkeiten mit Fantasie, um etwas Einzigartiges hervorzubringen.
Der 1962 geborene Niederländer Alex Timmermans brachte sich die Technik der Kollodium-Nassplatten selbstständig bei. Jede Kollodium-Nassplatte muss man in Handarbeit anfertigen. Mittlerweile ist er mit seinen Werken international erfolgreich. Er stellte sie bereits auf der „Paris Photo“ in Los Angeles und der „Photo Shanghai“ aus. Darüber hinaus werden seine Werke in vier Galerien in den USA und Europa verkauft.
Photography has progressed into a myriad of processes and genres but there are still some people who passionately create imagery using the traditional tools that started it all. The Dutch photographer Alex Timmermans is one of them.
Alex Timmermans has been working with wet plate photography for the last 7 years. His work has received international attention with shows and publications in many venues. His storytelling series is especially noteworthy for both its humor and its painstaking composition.
During the summer of 2008 he started his search for more information about a mysterious photographic process. At that time it was practiced by only a handful of photographers all over the world. He went back in time - about a hundred and sixty years - to one of the most magic forms of photography: 'Wet plate photography'. Timmermans began experimenting with collodion photography in 2009, developing a style that synthesized his interests in old school photography.
His most recent series Storytelling combines fine art photographs filled with strange and surreal elements that suggest a variety of interesting narratives as if they were pulled out of some long-lost storybook. He wanted to create something nobody else had done using collodion. The images from Storytelling (still ongoing) are imbued with a mysterious ambience: A movie in one shot. A lot of'stories' play on the idea of the nineteenth century but add a fantastical dimension, a kind of 'conversation' with images from the past. The look of the process automatically draws you back to the world of old-fashioned photography.
Timmermans’ work is a visual treat and that exhibits an imaginative take on contemporary photography. With the various advancements in technology, photography gear and processes, seeing Timmerman’s 'fresh' take on modern-day photography is soothing to the eyes. Each wet plate photograph also gives a proud salute to the dedicated photographers of the past. His work has been exhibited internationally at Paris Photo Los Angeles (solo exhibition) Fotofever Brussels and Paris, Photo Shanghai, Pan Amsterdam and recognized by the Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum International Photography Award (HIPA), among others like fine Art Photo, Vogue, Photo Klassik, SHUTR, Silvershotz, Black+white photography, LXRY, Blur magazine and many others.
Alex Timmermans never imagined that a photographic process, which have been invented by Frederick Scott Archer more than 160 years ago, was going to have such an influence on his passion for photography. In 1851 Archer experimented with collodion hoping to produce a photographic positive on ordinary glass plates. The same process of 1851 is still used by Alex Timmermans today using 19th century lenses and camera's.
Timmermans: "To work according to an ancient craft is so beautiful for me, from the very first moment I saw a plate coming up in the fixer bath, I lost my soul to this beautiful process. You can’t get any closer to a photographic process itself while working on wet plate photography and without the use of Photoshop. Collodion photography is not only a kind of photography. It is a passion as well"!
Timmermans uses antique camera's and brass lenses with a glorious history like Dallmeyer, Hermagis and Darlot. He does everything from scratch, like mixing his own chemicals. Varying amounts of chemicals and even the slightest change in lighting due to shifting weather conditions, can affect the outcome of wet plate photography. Timmermans understands all of these things and still pursues the labor-intensive photography process with passion and commitment without using any Photoshop. Preparations from start to finish can take several month. The idea of the image, finding or making the right props and locations, waiting for excellent weather conditions. The photographer spends hours creating images by mixing the right amount of chemicals, developing plate after plate to create the final image. All of these are done to produce one single image. | [

President urges cooperation on student funding solutions
Pretoria - President Jacob Zuma has urged university administrations and students to cooperate and work with Higher Education and Training Minister Blade Nzimande to find solutions to the challenge of student funding and access.
On Friday, the President said he is concerned about the violence that has broken out at some universities following the announcement by Minister Nzimande of government’s position on fee increases next year.
President Zuma reminded all that education is a societal matter.
“We must all work together to find solutions to the higher education access challenge. From parents, business community, labour, religious leaders, traditional leaders, political parties and communities in general, let us find solutions together.
“It is not a matter that must be resolved by government alone, or by the Department of Higher Education and Training alone,” said President Zuma.
The President said he has pledged his full support and that of Cabinet to Minister Nzimande and the university community as they deal with this matter.
He re-emphasised the seriousness with which the government takes the issue of higher education funding.
“The funding base for higher education students has been expanding considerably over the years, although it has not yet entirely offset the financial challenges for many students.
“Government cares and will continue to search for ways of making access to higher education easier for students,” said President Zuma.
The President has established the Presidential Commission of Enquiry into Higher Education and Training Funding which is still at work considering the issues of higher education funding in their entirety.
President Zuma urged student organisations to cooperate with the commission as it seeks solutions.
“We urge the students to explore peaceful avenues to engage on this issue constructively. The destruction of property is a criminal offence and will be treated as such by the law enforcement authorities.
“We have directed the police to ensure that all such cases reach the courts and that those responsible answer for their actions. This infrastructure must be available for use by generations to come, and students should respect university property as leaders of the future,” said the President. - SAnews.gov.za | [

According to a recent report, Volkswagen will introduce the next-generation Touareg in 2017.
Set to ride on the same platform that underpins the Audi Q7 and the Bentley Bentayga, the redesigned crossover will reportedly be larger than its predecessor and have enough room to accommodate a third row of seats. Despite this, the model is expected to be lighter as it will use an assortment of lightweight materials and components.
Engine options remain unconfirmed but choices are rumored to include a new diesel with 300 PS (220 kW) and a V6 petrol with about 330 PS (242 kW).
We can also expect a plug-in hybrid variant and it could use the same powertrain as the Audi Q7 e-tron. It, as you may remember, has a 3.0-liter TDI six-cylinder diesel engine, an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery. This setup enables the crossover to produce a combined maximum output of 373 PS (275 kW) and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque. In terms of performance, the model can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 6.0 seconds, hit a top speed of 225 km/h (139 mph), average 1.7 L/100km (138 mpg US / 166 mpg UK) and travel up to 56 km (34.8 mi) on electricity alone. | [

Neil Ford Reports on national and regional energy transition strategies in East Africa.
East Africa as a whole appears to be facing significant advances in electricity supply, not least because national strategies should promote regional integration into the sector.
Like Egypt, Kenya only wants more generation capacity from the technology that makes the most sense to support its goal of universal access to electricity by 2030. This partly explains why Kenya supported the development of a 1.05 GW coal-fired power plant in the port city of Lamu despite President Uhuru Kenyatta promising to produce 100% renewable energy.
While this project is increasingly unlikely to be built, new low carbon geothermal and wind power capacity has recently been completed. With an official electrification rate of 75% last year, the target for 2030 is possible, but still ambitious.
With its geothermal, wind, solar and large hydropower resources, Kenya is well positioned to create a balanced, low-carbon generation mix so that the loss of the Lamu coal-fired power station would not be insurmountable.
Geothermal energy alone accounts for 823 MW of the installed capacity of 2.7 GW. This makes Kenya the seventh highest national geothermal capacity in the world. How quickly local construction and operating costs for wind and solar energy fall can be determined by national policy, as the government’s rolling 20-year master plan is based on the most cost-effective development.
In contrast, Ethiopia’s rapid electrification and industrialization strategy is largely based on developing a single form of electricity generation – on a large scale. The government hopes that large hydropower projects can continue to drive rapid economic growth while bringing electricity to parts of the country that currently have very limited access. Such high ambitions have massive disadvantages.
At the center of this strategy is the 6 GW Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) project. However, this and similar projects come with their own environmental and financial risks. Ethiopia’s hydropower ambitions have also created tension with Egypt and Sudan, the states further downstream on the Nile.
Access to the waters of the Nile makes up a large part of Egypt’s identity and, more conveniently, of water supply. The Blue Nile, which rises in the Ethiopian highlands, accounts for 90% of the volume of the Nile when it reaches Egypt. Successive Egyptian governments have protested the GERD project and even threatened to bomb the dam.
Ministers from Ethiopia, Sudan and Egypt held talks to resolve the dispute, including in Washington in March, in the presence of the US Treasury Secretary and the President of the World Bank.
An agreement has not yet been reached but there is hope that a plan to gradually fill the reservoir could be adopted to avoid a sudden drop in water flow. The negotiators are also looking for mechanisms to mitigate the effects of the drought on water levels in the lower reaches of the river. In practice, this would require less power generation. It was hoped a US-brokered deal would be signed in early 2020, but it remained elusive at the time of writing.
In other parts of the region, the Tanzanian government’s goal of increasing national generation capacity from 1.6 GW to 10 GW by 2025 appears too ambitious. A big step would be the punctual completion of the 2.1 GW Rufiji hydropower plant. However, renewable energy development has been slow and little progress has been made in developing huge offshore gas fields in the south.
The government is interested in using the gas reserves to generate income from LNG exports and possibly to provide raw materials for power plants. However, the failure to reach an agreement with international oil companies on terms for development and the uncertain prospects for international demand have delayed this.
Uganda is trying to build on its previous hydropower projects by encouraging the development of geothermal and solar energy projects. Britain’s Bantu RG Energy hopes to build the country’s first geothermal system, a 10 MW plant in the Nebbi district.

Experience a side of Urumqi and Uyghur culture that most people don't get to see when visiting the capital of Xinjiang. For more Urumqi Walking Tour details, visit: http://www.farwestchina.com/2014/07/urumqi-walking-tour.html Welcome to the first walking tour of Urumqi (乌鲁木齐), something that anybody who is traveling to Xinjiang will want to do. It starts at the ErDaoQiao market (二道桥) across the street from the Urumqi International Grand Bazaar (乌鲁木齐大把杂) and ends up near the Urumqi NanMen (南门).

China is a vast country with a seemingly endless variety of landscapes. From the modern skylines of Shanghai and Hong Kong to the ancient city walls of Xi'an, the former capital of the 'Middle Kingdom'. Imposing rice terraces contrast with stark desert scenery, massive coal factories rub shoulders with newly built cities. I have been privileged to visit China a number of times in the last decade or so, usually with a photo- and or video camera in hand, trying to capture glimpses of this ever evolving nation. Earlier this year, I took the opportunity to travel across the country for another 3 months, focusing primarily on aerial photography and filming. This little adventure took me from the Northern 'rust belt provinces' to the beautiful mountain landscapes of national parks like Zhangjiajie (often named as an inspiration for the popular Avatar movie) and Jiuzhaigou. I also visited some cities to gain an aerial perspective of China's urban development, and came across several major infrastructure projects. The rural backwaters in Guangxi province were a personal favorite to explore, with the surreal Dragon's Backbone rice terraces and karst scenery around Guilin. I edited some of this material into one single clip, trying to show some of the diversity I came across. The drone I traveled around with was the DJI Phantom 4. You will find footage from the following places in this clip (in no particular order): Zhangjiajie national park, the Yangtze River (Three Gorges), Dunhuang (sand dunes and solar panels), Guazhou (wind turbines), Hebei province (Great Wall of China), Dazhai (Dragon's Backbone rice terraces), Fujian province (Hakka 'tulou' round houses), Pingyao, Changsha (Mao Zedong memorial), Liaoning province (several industrial sites and 'ghost cities'), Guangzhou (Evergrande football stadium), Hong Kong, Shanghai, Jishou (Aizhai bridge), Hainan island, Chongqing, Guilin, Jiuzhaigou national park, Zhengzhou, Linxia (golden domed mosque), Zhangye national park, Macau, Hukou waterfalls, and Shenzhen.

Session Type: Virtual Lightning Paper
Presentation File: No File Uploaded
Based on the theoretical framework of complexity, this paper suggests new approach and alternative of political ecology in this world of glocalization as a neologism and contradiction of the global and the local. Since there has been no significant contribution of glocalization, the paper relates this conceptual trend to complexity theory to provide better understanding of global encroachment to local areas or local counteraction against globalized world. Political ecology, which investigates local environmental and ecological impacts of global political economy, in conclusion, needs to go in parallel with this cross-scalar perspectives by being combined with the ideas of complexity and glocalization. | [

(Chehalis, WA) A trip to state was on the line along wiht the end of your season for the Black Hills Wolves and Mark Morris Monarchs Wednesday night at WF West high school in Chehalis. After a 30-minute delay and a mix up in color of jerseys as both teams arrived in their home white tops. So as the navy blue away shirts arrived a few at a time the game got underway but the many of the Wolves did not have their regular jersey and it took a few moments to figure out who was what number.
Despite the awkward start it did not impede the Monarchs Natalie Mejia who started like a flash with 8 straight points for the Monarchs and would lead 13-9 after 1 quarter. The Wolves came out hot in the 2nd quarter beginning with a 7-0 run led by a 3 and 2 from Natalie Buchanan to take their 1st lead in the game. Mark Morris would only score 2 points in the 2nd quarter but after that 7-0 start for Black Hills they could not take advantage of the cold spell from the Monarchs and held a slim 16-15 advantage at halftime.
Mark Morris’s Reese Johnston was shut out in the 1st half but took her about 30 seconds to hit her 1st bucket to give the lead back which they would not surrender again to the Monarchs and then a 3 and then another 2 on her way to a game high 14 points all in the 2nd half. Her 5 point run to start the 3rd quarter earned our NW Home team Takin’ itg to the House Play of the Game. Mark Morris pushed their lead to 11 but the end of the 3rd 36-25.
The Wolves did make a 7-0 run in the 4th to cut the lead to 4 but Mark Morris responded and pushed the lead back to 11 for the final 48-37 score. Mark Morris advances to the State tournament with the win while Black Hills’ season came to an end. Our Thorbeckes MVP went to Mejia who finished with 13 points.

(Tumwater, WA) A quick turnaround this season led to the Black Hills Wolves opening up the District 4 2A girls basketball tournament with a home matchup against the #3 seed from the GSHL 2A in the Hudson’s Bay Eagles. With their only two losses coming to WF West, Black Hills came in with all the belief in the world that they could reach the state tournament but Hudson’s Bay possessed that same belief in what was a coin flip game.
A fast start for Black Hills got the Wolves going early as Kiley McMahon buried her first three-pointer of the game just seconds after the opening tip. It would be nothing but threes for the W | [

Title: The Last Little Envelope
Author: Maureen Johnson
Length: 288 pages, Paperback
Genre: Contemporary, Young Adult
Rating: 4.5 Folded Pages
Note: Haven’t read the first book in this duology? Here’s my review of 13 Little Blue Envelopes.
Warning: Blurb and review may contain spoilers for the first novel in the series!!
Ginny Blackstone spent last summer traveling around Europe, following the tasks her aunt laid out in a series of letters before she died. When someone stole Ginny’s backpack—and the last little blue envelope inside—she resigned herself to never knowing how the adventure was supposed to end.
Now a mysterious boy has contacted Ginny from London, saying he’s found her bag. Finally she can finish what she started. But instead of ending her journey, the last letter starts a whole new one, and Ginny must hold on to her wits... and her heart. This time, there are no instructions.
I loved this book almost as much as the first book. There were a few things that I was kinda eh about but the adventure and emotion was just as present. I actually read the 13 Little Blue Envelopes and The Last Little Blue Envelope back to back I took a break in between to write the review for 13 Little Blue Envelopes and I didn’t want to change it to make it a series review.
Moving on, I loved the new character introduced. He was mysterious but sweet. I hated watching how he was treated. I’m glad Johnson did what she did but some parts were very hard to wach and it made me absolutely hate characters I had liked in the first book. I won’t go further than that.
I do think this book could have had a little more depth. I wanted to see more of the new character and I wanted more interaction between Ginny and new character. I think the book could have done well to be a little longer. I think more depth would have made the ending more plausible and satisfying.
However, other than wanting more depth, I have no complaints. I read this book, like the first, in three hours and loved every second of it. | [

In testimony before the US Senate Caucus on International Narcotics Control, Brookings Institution fellow VandaFelbab-Brown discusses the security, political, and economic impacts of illicit drug production in Afghanistan.
Nick Crofts, Senior Research Fellow at the Nossal Institute for Global Health, argues that as we mark the 50th anniversary of the UN conventions which declared a global war on drugs, the world can no longer ignore the intricate links between narcotics, development and conflict.
A report tracing the beginnings and evolution of drug production in Afghanistan during its three decades-long war. The report concludes that the country's illicit economy, based on the drug trade, dominates its rudimentary licit economic sector.
A report which examines how the misuse of drugs has been framed as a security issue – a threat to humanity which is intended to justify the extraordinary measures of worldwide prohibition and a militarised war.
A thorough report examining the complex interrelationships between illicit drugs (production, trade and use), illicit drugs policies, human rights and social and economic development. The report draws attention to the fact that the association between drug policy and development policy has not been adequately acknowledged, thereby hindering the achievement of a human rights-based approach to both policy areas.
Mick Moore, Professorial Fellow at the Institute of Development Studies, outlines how existing international drug law harms the developing world. The article emphasises the need for policy makers to consider alternatives to the current war on drugs. | [

Sydney: With three months to spare, annual rainfall in Australia’s Sydney already reached its highest level of 2,199.8 mm as of 3:30 p.m. local time on Thursday, since the Observatory Hill weather station began recording in 1858.
According to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM), the city’s previous record was set in 1950, when a total deluge of 2,194 mm poured down for the whole year.
“We are seeing challenges on multiple fronts across the New South Wales (NSW) at present. Across the western part of the state, we got multiple river systems that are in flood to some extent,” the state’s Emergency Services Minister Steph Cooke told ABC on Thursday, speaking of the current weather condition.
“We are asking communities at this time to listen to the advice that comes out from the BOM and the advice that comes out from the SES (State Emergency Service) and we will get through what we expect will be another few challenging days,” Xinhua news agency reported quoting the minister.
As the country is facing its third La Nina event in a row, BOM warned on Wednesday that a weather system is bringing widespread rain and storms to eastern and southern Australia this week, which can lead to renewed river level rises across many already flooded rivers.
“It will be a difficult week but even more so a difficult summer and significant flooding is expected,” NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet told reporters at a flood briefing. | [

The Miami Heat have represented the Eastern Conference in the NBA Finals for each of the last four seasons, but that obviously is likely to change now that LeBron James has left to return home to Cleveland in order to once again play for the Cavaliers.
Miami managed to bring back a more than reasonable roster under the circumstances, signing Luol Deng and Josh McRoberts in free agency, in addition to re-signing Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh on multi-year deals to return to the Heat.
But at least in Bosh’s case, a return was anything but a foregone conclusion.
Chris Bosh said Thursday that he was “close” to leaving the Miami Heat before ultimately deciding to sign a five-year, $118 million contract to stay with the team.
“It was close. I’m not going to lie,” Bosh said on “The Zaslow and Joy Show” on FM 104.3 The Ticket in Miami. “It was close. It was a weird situation because we were waiting so long and I didn’t know what was going on.
“I think you’re always in a situation where it is close even if you don’t leave because teams got very aggressive on me. And I guess as soon as LeBron made up his mind, that’s when everything could fall in line. But I was just waiting, so I didn’t know what was going on.”
Bosh had a max contract offer from the Rockets on the table, one that was so legit that Houston cleared cap space by getting rid of Jeremy Lin in order to sign him, with no guarantees that Bosh would commit to coming to Houston.
But Bosh had maintained that he wanted to remain in Miami with or without LeBron, and once the Heat lost the game’s best player and came at Bosh with a max contract offer to stay in town, that made his decision one that was easier than expected.

There isn’t even the slightest hesitation when Dirk Kuyt is tasked with recalling his favourite Merseyside derby.
“The one where I scored two penalties, with one deep into added time,” says the Anfield favourite, while bearing a blatant smirk.
“Somewhere in between I tried to kick somebody and thankfully didn’t get the red card…”
He is, of course, referring to the pulsating encounter at Goodison Park in 2007, where Liverpool were made to fight tiresomely to overturn an early one-goal deficit caused by Sami Hyypia’s own goal.
But thanks to two second-half penalties from Kuyt, Rafa Benitez’s Champions League-chasing Reds secured maximum points on their short, annual expedition across Stanley Park.
“That was such a special game for me, an away game as well, and to celebrate the winning goal in injury time with the away fans is something I will never forget,” Kuyt says.
From his six-year stay on Merseyside, the former Dutch international flaunts a rather impressive record against those based just a stone’s throw away from Anfield: seven wins, four draws and two losses.
And in the Premier League, his inaugural meeting with the Blues was the sole blemish on an otherwise perfect curriculum vitae, which underlines the clear gulf in class between the clubs over the last two decades.
That gulf could be extended further this Sunday afternoon, when the city of Liverpool comes to a standstill for the 240th Merseyside derby.
Even though Kuyt has only spent a small number of hours back in Liverpool prior to his exclusive chat with This is Anfield, he is able to distinguish the usual pre-derby symptoms currently bubbling around Merseyside.
“You can already feel it, even the week before,” he admits, speaking at an LFC Foundation event in association with SC Johnson.
“We are a couple of days before the derby game, and once I landed in Liverpool from Amsterdam this morning people were already talking about the game. It’s massive for the city.
“You’ve got families split, one is for Liverpool and one is for Everton. It’s just a great and really important game.
“Liverpool are playing so many ‘finals’ in three different competitions in the next month – this game is a competition of its own.
“I used to play, thankfully I won more than I lost, but for Liverpool and the city it’s very important Liverpool win again on Sunday.”
It’s fair to say the forward – who made more than 200 appearances for the Reds – has played his role in some of the continent’s fiercest rivalries, with his knack for important strikes in those fixtures earning him the honorary reputation as the man who relished the big occasion.
Of all his decisive strikes in red, it is his poacher’s hat-trick against Sir Alex Ferguson’s Man United back in 2011 that immediately springs to mind as the pick of the bunch.
“I was used to playing these types of games in Holland, [with] Feyenoord and Ajax,” he replies when asked how long it took him to become accustomed to the high-tempered affairs as an overseas player.
“And when I came to Liverpool this along with Manchester United was one of the most important games of the season.
“I loved this type of game the most, when everyone is up for it. I was happy to score important and vital goals at home and away, they were such great moments.”
A new-age rivalry
For a man who scored in two of his three cup final appearances during his Anfield career – and also netted nine times collectively over his meetings with United and Everton – it’s fair to say he would have seamlessly slotted into Klopp’s current quadruple-chasing side, who find themselves facing at least nine ‘finals’ in their bid to make history between now and the end of May.
“It’s just amazing how high level these games are [played],” says the Dutchman in a state of disbelief.
“I haven’t seen better games than Liverpool versus City this season.”
He’s right. Liverpool and City have served up three thrilling encounters so far this season, in a fixture that is frequently being touted as the greatest these shores have ever seen, despite what the traditionalists may argue.
Yet with both sides failing to land a killer blow in either of their Premier League meetings, it was Klopp’s men who landed the first substantial blow in the sem-final bout at Wembley last weekend.
And for all the external talk about the absence of a deep-rooted historical feud between the two sides situated on either side of M62, Kuyt is well-placed to discuss what the | [

Hydraulic hoses are integral components used in hydraulic systems to transmit fluid power. The construction of these hoses includes a rubber or thermoplastic tube, reinforcement materials (such as steel wire braids or spirals), and an outer protective cover. Hoses come in various sizes and configurations to meet the diverse requirements of different applications. These sizes are determined based on either the inner diameter (ID) or outer diameter (OD) of the hose.
Hydraulic Hose Measured by ID
The most common method of measuring hydraulic hose size is by its inner diameter (ID). This measurement represents the size of the hose's inner tube, through which the fluid flows. As an example, suppose a hydraulic hose is labeled as 1/2" ID. This means the inner diameter of the hose is 1/2 inch, allowing fluids to pass through with a certain flow rate and pressure.
Hydraulic Hose Measured by OD
In some cases, hydraulic hose sizes are measured by their outer diameter (OD). This measurement refers to the total width of the hose, including the outer protective cover. Although less common, some manufacturers adopt this method to specify the size of their hydraulic hoses. For instance, a hydraulic hose may be labeled as 3/4" OD, indicating a hose with a 3/4-inch outer diameter.
Factors Affecting Hydraulic Hose Size Measurement
Several factors influence the choice of hydraulic hose size, regardless of whether it is measured by ID or OD. These factors include the flow rate, pressure rating, temperature, and compatibility with the fluid being handled.
Flow Rate: The flow rate determines the volume of fluid that needs to pass through the hydraulic system within a specific duration. It affects the internal diameter requirements of the hydraulic hose, as larger flow rates typically necessitate hoses with larger IDs.
Pressure Rating: The pressure rating of a hydraulic hose indicates its ability to handle different levels of hydraulic pressure. Hoses with higher pressure ratings require thicker inner tubes or reinforcement layers, which could affect their ID or OD measurements.
Temperature: The working temperature of the hydraulic system is another significant consideration. Extreme temperatures can cause expansion or contraction of the hose, potentially impacting the overall size requirements. Manufacturers typically provide guidelines for temperature ranges in which their hoses can operate effectively.
Fluid Compatibility: The type of fluid being used in the hydraulic system also affects the hose size selection. Different fluids have varying viscosities and characteristics, demanding specific hose materials and dimensions to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
In conclusion, hydraulic hose size can be measured by either ID or OD, depending on the manufacturer's specifications. The majority of hoses are labeled according to their inner diameter (ID), while certain manufacturers may choose to specify the outer diameter (OD) instead. Understanding the requirements of your hydraulic system, including flow rate, pressure rating, temperature, and fluid compatibility, is vital for selecting the appropriate hose size. By considering these factors and consulting with experts, you can ensure a reliable and efficient hydraulic system with correctly sized hoses.. | [

NASA recognizes within its roadmaps (specifically TA 3.1.6) that development of aneutronic fusion (such as p-11B) reactors with direct energy conversion (>80%) would be an enabling technology to achieve low specific mass (kg/kW) through the elimination of shielding and potentially the need for dedicated radiators. In addition, material activation due to neutron capture could be avoided. The challenge is of course to develop a plasma confinement system that is far less massive than the current leading (magnetic/inertial) approaches, but consumes less power than is generated by the fusion process – a feat that has yet to be achieved even terrestrially. Inertial Electrostatic Confinement (IEC) techniques offer the possible advantage of considerably lower mass, however they suffer from limitations that have hampered their development, just as plasma instabilities have hampered the development of magnetic systems. The difference is that considerable time, effort and funding have gone into the engineering of solutions to the plasma instability problem, whereas the limitations of IEC have always been viewed as “too fundamental”. The objectives of the proposed research are therefore two-fold: 1) To retire the broad fundamental criticisms of IEC devices by demonstrating feasible engineering solutions, and 2) To develop a comprehensive system-level performance model to support parametric scaling.
The impact of successfully achieving the target specific mass of 2 kg/kW can be seen in the context of the previously proposed JIMO spacecraft. The full dry mass was about 24 metric tons, with 12 metric tons of Xe propellant. The fission reactor module mass was estimated at just over 6 tons, not including roughly 2 tons of radiator mass. At a power output of 200 kWe, the specific mass of the full power system (reactor+radiators) would have been about 40 kg/kW. At a target specific mass of ~2kg/kW, the same power system would have a mass of only 400 kg, saving 7.5 tons of dry mass and 3.5 tons of propellant. This is just over 30% reduction in total mass to orbit, at a savings of $220M. It is also worth noting that the fuel mass (assuming p-11B @ = 80%) for the entire 20 year mission design life, if operating continuously at 200 kWe, would amount to ~2.3 kg.
Phase I of the research will be primarily dedicated to the development of the performance model to help motivate the efficacy of the approach in advance of Phase II. However, some effort in Phase I will address the key criticism of IEC devices, namely that of thermalization, through numerical simulation. In Phase II, more detailed modeling and numerical simulation of electron confinement within the device core, energy loss paths, and direct energy conversion of the fusion products will be done. The results of the Phase II effort would then be incorporated into a technology development plan. | [

In 2009, Miami became the first major American city to adopt a New Urbanist zoning code. Sean McCaughan of The Architect's Newspaper reviews the highs and lows of the code's first three years. McCaughan critiques the plan's inability to address public transportation, parking requirements, and ugly public buildings. On the positives side, McCaughan argues that the code strengths are "urban infill, density, and the vitality of the pedestrian experience at the neighborhood level." | [

Avy of Sharkboy – Photo courtesy of Avy
The albums Matinee and especially The Valentine Tapes are buried treasures from ’90s U.K.alternative rock/Americana band Sharkboy. Led by the mysterious and beguiling Avy, the band created atmospheric, cinematic, retro-vibed gems that have been obscured by the loud and crowded musical landscape and grinding gears of time.
Sharkboy disappeared into the ether after those two releases, but now, over 20 years later, Avy returns with a mesmerizing new song, “Spell”, and its accompanying storytelling video. The Big Takeover is highly delighted to host the premiere of Avy’s creative work in both aural and visual form.

“Spell” music video
A wealthy wolf and his adoring white cat love each other so much they dream they could live as wolf and wife. One full-moon night their wish is granted – but Nature ensures not all goes to plan. ‘Spell’ is an atmospheric stop-motion story of love.
Inspired by the classic Aesop fable Venus & The Cat, Avy’s little film contains elements of Alice Through The Looking Glass. It’s a tale of nature over nurture, the power of possessing the freedom to roam and the call of home. It journeys quickly along an unexpected and delightful path. Domesticity, decisions about freedom versus commitment, the power of love – all are woven into the surface whimsy of the narrative.
Created by songwriter and fabulist Avy, it’s set to a new track of the same name by her band Sharkboy. The lyrics of “Spell” describe the soul bonds of two people over many lifetimes. The back and forth in time is illustrated in the tenses of present, future and past contained in a quiet mountain song.
“Spell’ has elements of country and folk stemming from Avy’s origins in the North-West of England, where the influence of old English ballads, Irish tales and Celtic romanticism leave their echoes in the popular and traditional music of the region.
Avy says, “IIn the North West ‘spell’ is a Norse word for splinter. My mother would get spells out with a needle. Originally the track was called ‘Spell In Your Hand’. It’s like when someone gets completely under your skin. It can stay but not permanently. In my minds eye I see a carpenter building a ship’s masthead. There are a lot of hidden layers in the title.”
The lyrical, acoustic nuances of the song reach out to the listener like a lost and found love – or a boatman’s call across the void.
Avy and Sharkboy
By making short films and producing personal artwork Avy supports the lyrical content of her writing, encompassing ballads, chanson, Americana and alt-rock. Her work continues to defy a single genre and she has the same focus that set Sharkboy on their path over two decades ago.
Avy first came to press attention with Sharkboy and signed to Nude Records, one-time home of Suede. After art-directing their vinyl cover shoots and embedding cinematic narratives within their music, she dissolved the band and disappeared from public life for over 20 years.
She has worked with Robin Guthrie, David Baker and Bernard Butler, played bass in punk band The Fuck You Planet Earth and created a side project Rockhard Garçons.
Avy is now back producing new material with Sharkboy and emerging with a new entity, Sign Of The Sharkboy that encompasses her visual and creative production.
The personal artwork creates a 360-degrees experience, adding layers to the lyrical content of her Americana, chanson and alt rock music. Avy states, “‘I never wanted to just make music alone. I found it frustrating when I could see all the visual clues in the words sort of entrapped.”
She continues, “In recent times a host of animated characters including animals and birds in everyday life have been making their way into my visual art and animated work – black crows, robins, foxes, dogs. I now have complete control of what goes out into the world and that feels really good.”
““Spell” the movie is kind of ‘home-made on purpose’. People seem to like it. I wanted it to be rough. You can see where the models have lived the story and got their knocks and bruises. The video took nearly 3 months to make over the long hot summer…,” | [

Ephesians 4: 4-6 (NIV) 4There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism; 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
The Texas Aggie tradition of the 12th Man remains an incredible example of teamwork and unity.
Before he became the first 12th Man, an Aggie by the name of E. King Gill was simply a squad player for Texas A&M’s football team — and little did he know that his willingness to serve would become his legacy, one that lives on more than 90 years later as 38,000 students stand for every Texas A&M home game.
On Jan. 2, 1922, the heavily outgunned Aggies were facing the top-ranked Centre College Praying Colonels on the gridiron in the Dixie Classic in Dallas. Gill was up in the press box helping reporters identify players on the field below — and what was happening on the field wasn’t pretty.
The Aggies found themselves plagued by injuries, with their reserves seemingly dwindling with every play. As Texas A&M Coach Dana X. Bible looked across his rapidly emptying bench, he suddenly remembered Gill’s presence in the stands. Bible waved Gill down to the sideline and told him to suit up. Gill ran under the bleachers and put on the uniform of injured running back Heine Weir, who had been knocked out of the game in the first quarter. King Gill embodied unity by leaving the stands and risking himself for a greater purpose.
The Greek word used for unity in Ephesians 4 literally means oneness and unity. It specifically refers to unity that comes in the body of Christ available to us because of our Savior and Lord.
John Wesley, often called the Father of Methodism, said, “I want the whole Christ for my Savior, the whole Bible for my book, the whole Church for my fellowship, and the whole world for my mission field.” Philip Melanchthon, a friend and colleague of Luther’s wrote about the core and the periphery. We as Christians need to agree on the essential gospel of Christ, but we can graciously and humbly disagree over matters that are not essential or not clearly outlined in Scripture. A Lutheran theologian from the 16th century, Rupertus Meldeniu, wrote, “In essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, in all things charity.”
We work together with other Christians to further the Gospel and care for people. Christian churches are not competing businesses. We are laborers in God’s field. Furthermore, we all sow and reap a harvest for the Lord.
1 Corinthians 3: 4-7 (NIV) 4For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere human beings? 5What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. 6I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. 7So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow.”
No one should claim credit for what only God can do by His grace. Christians humbly work together to promote Christ’s kingdom. We are all on the same team, and it is time for us to get on the field and play.
Prayer: Father, may we humbly serve you in unity with other believers. Teach us that Christ is the head of the church, and we are your servants. Empower us with your Spirit. Amen. | [

Mary Tyrone fidgets, constantly wringing her hands, tapping her fingers. It's a side effect of the dope. The dope she says her doctor prescribed for rheumatism is actually just her escape--from loneliness, guilt, regret.
The rheumatism is in her hands, she says, but her quickly-moving fingers expose her lie.
Mary Tyrone is the matriarch in Eugene O'Neill's autobiographical play Long Day's Journey Into Night. She is its focus and its chief, the primary string in her family's web of deception, accusation, guilt and denial.
In Theatre Tulsa's rendition of the play, the final production of its 2008-09 season, Noel Fairbrothers plays Mary and does so beautifully.
Her character is at once giddy and paranoid, at times attempting normalcy though she is woefully unhappy and addicted to morphine, and at times brutally honest with her husband and sons about her feelings of mistreatment.
She lives in a haze, purposefully ignorant of her husband's and son's alcoholism, their wasted lives, and of her younger son's tuberculosis. She insists Edmund (Gus Haskell) simply has a summer cold.
The play takes place one day in August in 1912 at the family's summer home in seaside Connecticut.
James Tyrone Sr. (Michael Massey), her husband, is a classically-trained actor turned miserly landowner. Her son Jamie (Justin McKean) is a boozer and whoremonger whose cynicism eats at the whole family.
Edmund is the quiet intellectual, 10 years younger than his brother, who has acquired a cough and will soon be diagnosed by his doctor--a quack, really, but an inexpensive one--with consumption. If his mother is the leader of the family's dysfunction, then Edmund, and a strong desire to save Edmund, is the only thing keeping the family together.
Each scene of the slow-paced drama begins after a meal, centering on the health of individual family members. It's heavy on dialogue, most of which is well-timed between actors.
The play opens after breakfast, with the men of the family complimenting Mary on how fat she's become, a positive attribute to them, considering she's just returned from a long stay at the sanitarium where she's supposedly been recovering from her morphine addiction.
Her sons worry, though, when they find her in the guest bedroom, the room in which she used to get high, in the middle of the night. She blames her sleepless wandering on the men's snoring and dismisses their concerns.
Conversation turns to Edmund's failing health, his father's poor choice of a physician and niggardly tendencies, his mother's longing for a home. They regard one another with equal parts disdain and affection, pointing out one another's fatal flaws while feigning concern for their best interests.
The audience also learns that there was a third child, Eugene, who died as a toddler. Mary blames Jamie for his death, saying, when he was seven, he purposefully went into the baby's room when he had the measles and was told not to.
She also blames herself, for not being there, and her husband and son Edmund for her failing health following Edmund's birth. She blames them all for her loneliness.
Mary spends a great deal of time searching for her glasses, searching for clarity.
In Act Two, it becomes obvious that Mary is using again and that Edmund is gravely ill. His only hope is a six-month to year-long stay in a sanitarium, but the family, especially Jamie, worries that their father will choose an expensive facility that won't properly care for Edmund.
For Mary, it seems, there is no hope.
Director T.L. Bringle has assembled a fine cast.
Individually, each actor offers a fantastic performance, but occasionally seems to stumble through the ensemble scenes. In some, there is an air of awkwardness, as though someone forgot a line. This could, though, be intentional, further illustrating the family's unusual dynamic.
The final scenes of the last act feature remarkable performances from each member of the Tyrone family, but, throughout the play, Fairbrothers and McKean stand out as two of the best in show.
Both offer such seamless performances, naturally evolving and complex. Both are charming while at the same time aggravating. Both likeable and despicable.
Massey also offers a fine performance as the pompous, detached patriarch, a former actor who could still very well be performing.
And Haskell, who often offers the voice of logic but who isn't without his own issues, shines quietly alongside his co-players. I do think, had he appeared more sickly than he did, the possibly of him dying from tuberculosis would have been more startling | [

The lowest recorded maximum levels of radiated emissions
was obtained for the LCCTqZSI structure.
In addition, you'll find components and subsystems that can help you meet compliance, including PCB-mountable chokes, surface-mount shields, conductive thermoplastic sheets, and power supplies with low conducted and radiated emissions
In particular, there are concerns that WPT's radiated emissions
could cause harm to humans and the neighboring electronic equipment.
The automated measuring system measures radiated emissions
(antenna--preamplifier--measuring receiver, which is connected to the PC) at various positions of the EUT and the antenna.
All models meet EN 55011-B, FCC Class B conducted & radiated emissions
and EN 60601-1-2 immunity standards.
The other issue with "containing" radiated emissions
is that they are still affecting other parts of the design, not to mention that if energy is radiating, it is being lost from the transmitted signal, which will manifest as signal degradation.
Advanced Test Equipment Rentals supplies these essential tools for customers in need of conducted and radiated emissions
testing to meet CISPR 16-1-1 standard and many other standards, and continues to provide the equipment the industry uses for their compliance testing needs.

Cable attached on a PCB is a well-known source of unintentional radiated emissions
due to its large dimension relative to the PCB. | [

A number of challenges are before the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries to meet the deadline for introducing value added tax (VAT).
A number of challenges are before the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries to meet the deadline for introducing value added tax (VAT). Craig Richardson, Partner and Head of Tax and Corporate Services at KPMG in Qatar,explained that the current lack of certainty pertaining to the ratification and release of the GCC VAT Framework Agreement, as well as the lack of domestic legislation puts the implementation of VAT at a risk of delay against the original intended date of January 2018.
VAT is a tax on consumption of goods and services levied at each stage in the supply chain and payable ultimately by the consumer. As outlined by various member states, GCC countries will introduce VAT at an expected rate of 5% as part of wider development reforms. GCC countries have had regular discussions over the last several months to formulate and finalize the main principles under which VAT should be implemented; GCC countries are expected to ratify the VAT Framework Agreement soon this year. Once the agreement is ratified, each country can issue its’ own domestic legislation to implement VAT, including Qatar.
However, the current absence of VAT legislation gives the corporate sector less time to prepare. Member states cannot finalize their national VAT laws until they finalize and adopt the GCC VAT Framework Agreement. “If Qatar plans to implement VAT starting from January 2018, following the steps of the other GCC member states, the corporate sector needs the national law at least eight months prior to the implementation to prepare for the new tax”, Richardson added.
Although VAT will impact all businesses in Qatar, either directly or indirectly, it will have a neutral impact if managed effectively. Businesses will need appropriate systems and a qualified workforce to collect VAT and pay it to the tax authorities on a monthly or quarterly basis. Therefore, companies should review their procurement processes, operating models and systems, contracts and legal structure today, to be VAT ready and minimize the impact of this imminent change.
Richardson elaborated, “The first step businesses must make is to plan and analyze their products and services for the impact of VAT. VAT is happening and if businesses are to maintain profitability, they must invest in understanding the impact of VAT on their business from an operational point of view. Before implementation, businesses can build and test systems and processes to help them comply with legislation and embed these within existing processes. There are also immediate measures which businesses can take today to avoid the impact of VAT, for example making any planned significant investments in business infrastructure and assets before implementation begins.”
Richardson also explained that the impact of VAT would also extend to the government sector. VAT requires monthly or quarterly filing of returns and payments of taxes. The tax authorities will also need to process refunds regularly and have robust IT systems in place to facilitate e-filing and e-communication with taxpayers.
“Since VAT is a new concept to the region, businesses and tax authorities in each GCC country will have to recruit and train sufficient staff. In addition, governance frameworks may also need to be reviewed and updated to incorporate policies, processes and controls that comply with VAT legislation.” He added. | [

Additional Resources for Grieving Children, Teens and Families
Funerals are an opportunity to come together with others and remember the person who has died. For children, it can confirm the reality of death. It is important to allow children the opportunity to attend the funeral. If possible, include children in the planning, such as picking out pictures to post, or the music to play.
Orchards by Holly Thompson tells the story of a young person’s process after her friends’ suicide. This thoughtful book can help a young person find ways to cope with their loss. Check out Holly’s website for a discussion guide. Thank you to Holly Thompson for tackling a taboo subject.
Death can bring out the worst or the best in families and dynamics within can change dramatically.

This split pea soup is a bit of an experiment. And it’s not actually ready yet. So hopefully we’ll know by the end of the post if it’s a good one or not.
A salad of half-baked, half-raw vegetables, combined with lettuce leaves, roasted chickpeas and roasted honeyed goat’s cheese.
Looking for a high protein, tasty and very filling vegan dish? Try this.
The hot weather may have departed but good fruity salads are still on the menu, aren’t they?
This simple quiche is made with tomato, eggs and cream whipped up with a little salt, pepper and nutmeg, and baked in a naturally gluten-free buckwheat pie crust.
Seafood chowder made with frozen seafood and fish and a “stock” made with oyster sauce, fish sauce, nutmeg, tarragon, garlic and water. Simple but with lots of flavour.
It’s easy. It’s peasy. It’s Pea Mint Soup.
This fishy looking green soup is like a thick salsa verde soup with fried mackerel. Very filling, very tasty, very green, very healthy altogether.
This soup is made with tinned tomatoes, roasted red peppers, garlic, dried chillies, stock, sugar, salt, lemon, cream, basil and parsley.
This is so good. Why is this only the second time I’ve made it? | [

How can you create non-centripital artificial gravity and apply it to propel a spacecraft by riding the gravitational space time warp?
Nobody knows! Various things have been written and various people have thought carefully about the problem, but ultimately all the ideas fall down on the need for things we don't have, wouldn't know how to manipulate or control, and may not actually exist.
If you could warp space on a whim, you might be able use it to drive spacecraft around, create stealth spacecraft, create defense shields, artificial gravity for the inside of the ship, and maybe even stasis fields.
The sorts of handwavium you'd need include cosmic strings or perhaps some form of tame phantom energy.
This drive uses the gravity's warped spacetime plane to move the craft. By moving the center of the artificial gravity in the direction in which you want the spacecraft to travel, you can steer the spacecraft, and by increasing or decreasing the gravity level, you can accelerate and decelerate relative to the gravity strength.
NASA's Breakthrough Propulsion Physics Program called this a Pitch Drive. It was one of several warp drive ideas they took a look at. Its requirement for magical handwavium and physics that may not be possible seems insurmountable.
Theoretically, by electromagnetically charging mercury, it is possible to create a non-centripetal gravity field, and if the mercury can spin fast enough, this artificial gravity should be able to overcome any gravity.
This is not a theory. This is pseudoscience and technobabble... it'll fit in OK in relatively soft scifi, but that's about it, I'm afraid. I'm of the opinion that this sort of detail should be avoided in any story, because it presents a way for your science to be clearly and unambiguously wrong.
Conserve detail for where it is needed.
If we could learn how to create an artificial gravity field that is stronger than that of a black hole for example, the craft would travel faster than the speed of light
I suspect that gravity field so strong that things fall into it at superluminal speeds is a concept that simply doesn't make any sense. Physics breaks down at a singularity. It probably isn't a place you'd want to visit.
Nobody is quite sure if a warp drive could actually allow superluminal travel... various bits of analysis have been done on the Alcubierre metric and related things, and it has been variously declared to be impossible or impractical (and something that's even more impractical than a warp drive is a pretty seriously unlikely thing) and even if it were possible you open up the doors to time travel and causality violation and paradoxes and all manner of bad things.
Obviously, in your own setting you can handwave your own solutions like chronology protection conjectures and privileged reference frames and so on, and remain relatively hard scifi.
Remember that even when time travel is forbidden, reactionless drives can still represent an existential threat to any spacefaring civilisation as they make the manufacture of planet-smashing relativistic kill vehicles realistic and practical. Consider Burnsides' Advice:
Friends don't let friends use reactionless drives in their universes.
Hard scifi interacts very badly with FTL and reactionless drives. With soft scifi you can wave your hands as much as you like to make your universe interesting but not immediately fatal to everyone in it. Worth considering. | [

SINGAPORE, Dec. 9 (UPI) -- Horizon Energy's AEROPAK fuel power cell system has been successfully tested in an Israeli-made, man-portable unmanned aerial vehicle.
Horizon, which has its headquarters in Singapore, said the system has been proved to be a ready drop-in replacement for UAV battery backs currently used.
A test flight was carried out by Elbit Systems in Israel. The test involved takeoff and recovery with an operational payload integrated onboard in simulated battlefield conditions.
The UAV was also flown in turbulent weather to gauge AEROPAK's capability to sustain continuous high power drain from the aircraft's motor.
Equipped with the AEROPAK fuel cell system, which delivers 900Wh net usable energy per quart of fuel, the Skylark I-LE vehicle will offer the vehicle's users enhanced flight duration, doubling the current endurance of the UAS, Horizon said.
Elbit's Skylark I-LE is a tactical man-portable unmanned aerial system used in close range, beyond-the-next-hill surveillance and reconnaissance missions by several nations. | [

When the 156 metre-long bridge opens in October, it will send engineers data around the clock, giving them an understanding of the structure which they never had access to before, Nordbayern.de reports.
Sensors built into the bridge, which is on the Autobahn 9, will analyze data such as the strain, movements and inclinations of the bridge, as well as the temperature, humidity and pressure from the vehicles.
Experts will then be able to tell the state of the bridge according to the data they receive, with the aim of discovering damage before regular tests.
The bridge in Nuremberg will be tested out as a five-year pilot project to determine whether it might also work in the rest of Germany, according to Nordbayern.de.
The new bridge is part of the “Digital Autobahn Test Field,” a project which the government is developing along with Siemens.
The Federal Transport Ministry hails the project as the next great step in automobile history, claiming it will ensure Germany's position as a leader in transport technology.
The ambitious end goal is that all cars will travel autonomously of drivers. But that is not likely to happen for at least 20 years, project coordinator Marcus Zwick told Nordbayern.de.
Before then though, project leaders hope it will reduce traffic jams and collisions.
Digital sensors placed at the roadside will communicate with software in ‘intelligent cars’, which will also communicate with one another, creating an integrated traffic network in which traffic and accident warnings can be sent out in real time.
Another advantage of the project is that it could reduce the number of Geisterfahrer – ghost drivers, or those who enter the road on an exit and drive against the flow of traffic.
By warning these people and other drivers of the mistake they are about to make, the system will increase safety for what is a recurrent problem on German roads, the transport ministry says.
The digital project also involves introducing free Wi-Fi access in six different parking lots of the north Bavarian region which will be available from mid-November. | [

Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO) is turning to cosmic rays to get a look inside the stricken power station's wrecked reactors, and help decide how to extract the melted nuclear fuel inside.
Since the March 2011 triple-meltdown nuclear disaster at the Fukushima No. 1 plant, due to high radiation levels it's been impossible to see inside the three reactors affected to ascertain the state of the fuel -- specifically how much is left in the pressure vessels and how much melted through to the containment vessel. As poking a hole in the reactor vessels would be far too dangerous, TEPCO is turning to a technique similar to X-ray exams at a doctor's office: muon detectors.
Muons are subatomic particles produced when cosmic rays strike Earth's atmosphere, and rain down constantly onto the planet's surface. Muons pass through most materials, including concrete and steel, unhindered, but they are blocked by very dense substances such as nuclear fuel. As such, the melted fuel in the Fukushima No. 1 reactors will block muons passing through the pressure vessels, and show up as shadows on a muon detector readout. The same technique is used to study magma in volcanoes.
By Feb. 10, TEPCO had set up two muon detectors next to the Fukushima plant's No. 1 reactor -- one each on the north and northwest side of the reactor building -- and was scheduled to begin taking readings on Feb. 12. TEPCO calculates that most of the fuel in the No. 1 reactor melted through the bottom of the pressure vessel and onto the floor of the containment vessel. The lower part of the containment vessel is below ground level, so the muon detectors won't be able to detect the fuel there. The pressure vessel, however, is above ground, meaning TEPCO can check how much fuel remains.
According to the Tsukuba, Chiba Prefecture-based High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK), which developed the muon detectors, the devices can pin down the position of nuclear fuel 30-50 centimeters in size.
TEPCO and its partners plan to take about a month's worth of measurements, and finalize the results in late March.
"It will be very important simply to confirm the hypothesis that the fuel is no longer in the pressure vessel," said KEK professor emeritus Fumihiko Takasaki. A TEPCO spokesperson commented, "If we can ascertain the position of the nuclear fuel debris, we'll be able to decide to some extent how we should go about extracting it (from the reactors)." | [

Micropump, which controls small volume of fluid, was investigated for application in microfluidic system. In this study, micropump used piezoelectric actuation, and dynamic passive valves (diffuser/nozzle elements). Piezoelectric diffuser/nozzle-based micropump is expected that it is able to response rapidly, consume lower energy, have lower fatigue, and handle fluid mediums independently of its electrical properties. Pumping efficiency is related to rectification efficiency of diffuser/nozzle elements that is decided by shape of diffuser/nozzle elements.
Previous studies on the micropump were tend to investigate with the experiment and focus on the diffuser/nozzle elements. In this study, we observed the micropump system that included the diffuser/nozzle elements and pumping chamber by numerical simulation with shorter time range (one cycle) than experimental. We used time dependent and deforming mesh scheme with boundary conditions of zero static pressure at inlet and outlet.
As the result, when frequency of actuation increase, the pumping rate increase. During supply mode, maximum pumping efficiency was observed at zero deflection. Varying the opening angle of diffuser/nozzle elements, it was found that there are maximum efficiency at small angle, and minimum at large angle. And we also observed the circular flow in pump chamber at supply mode that is expected mixing pumped medium. | [

Li S (2021) Translating food terminology as cultural and communicative processes. In: Li S & Hope W (eds.) Terminology Translation in Chinese Contexts: Theory and Practice. Routledge Studies in Chinese Translation. London: Routledge, pp. 81-97. https://www.routledge.com/Terminology-Translation-in-Chinese-Contexts-Theory-and-Practice/Li-Hope/p/book/9780367439538
This chapter uses data from comparable English and Chinese corpora and deploys a cultural communicative approach to terminology to analyse food-related terms and their translations. It features three case studies that focus on food safety and environment-related terms, on health and nutrition-related terms, and on seafood products. The case studies illustrate how food terminology formation is not only a linguistic and social process but also a cultural process. The chapter shows that terminological inconsistency, inappropriateness, and mistranslation are still serious issues affecting food-related products. For example, the translation of “organic food” into Chinese is discussed, the term being 有机食品 (yŏu jī shípĭn), which means “food produced with machine or technology”. The term is misleading, given the process of producing organic food. This uninviting translation, together with the cost of such products, would put them at a disadvantage compared to “green food”, which was translated as 绿色食品 (lǜsè shípǐn) and which benefits from more positive cultural connotations in Chinese. The chapter advocates more systematic interdisciplinary research led by linguists and translators to bring together environmental scientists, food nutritionists, marketing researchers, and others, with the goal of harmonizing food terminologies and facilitating more appropriate product labelling. From a legal perspective, the chapter proposes more rigorous enforcement of standardized food terminologies and processes to regulate food safety and traceability.

I installed kubuntu 16.04 (amd64) on my laptop.
I want access by ssh to my laptop. What's I do?
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install openssh-server sudo ufw allow 22
Now I can connect from my another PC to my laptop by ssh. OK. But I still have 2 issues:
1) just power on my laptop. I see logging screen. But I can not connect by ssh now, because my laptop do not connected to network at this moment. If I logging, then I see notification about connection to wifi. And now I can connect by ssh. Can I config, that my laptop will be connected to network before any user logged in?
2) I logged to my laptop. I can connect by ssh too. Then I logout. Now I can not connect by ssh, but I can ping my laptop success. Is available solution for this case? | [

Menstrual cramps? Go ahead and eat dark chocolate, says Dr Snehal Adsule.
Dysmenorrhea or menstrual pain is a common problem several girls and women face on a monthly basis.
During the five days of menstrual cycle, the body undergoes several changes -- both physical and psychological.
While some women go through this stage with barely any symptoms, some others struggle very badly with severe pain, cramps, headache and nausea.
The conditions aggravate due to lifestyle changes and eating habits.
Believe it or not, including the following food in your diet can ease some of these painful symptoms.
If you're suffering from an irregular bowel movement or period induced diarrhoea, bananas will make all your troubles go away.
The vast amounts of magnesium, potassium, and fibre that banana contains will help with your bowel movement and also have a relaxing impact on your mood.
2. Dark chocolate
Dark chocolate is the best period comfort food as it is low on sugar and contains caffeine that will elevate your mood and also satisfy your sweet cravings.
Chamomile tea doesn't only relax your nerves, your uterus as well.
It will help to reduce the severity of period cramps, anxiety and distress associated with it and it will help you fall asleep easier as well.
Ginger is good to control inflammation but it also will help you to reduce menstrual pain.
Add fresh ginger to your tea if you suffer from abdominal discomfort.
5. Oranges and lemons
Eat more fruits in order to increase your vitamin intake and reduce sugar cravings during your period.
Citrus fruits like orange and lemons are good for you.
Besides vitamins, they contain a lot of fiber and water, which will keep your body hydrated and your digestion on track.
During periods body retains maximum water, hence it is advised to drink more water to release toxins and stay fit.
7. Green leafy vegetables
High amount of iron, folate and vitamins, leafy greens like spinach, methi, broccoli are great sources of nutrients, which can efficiently replenish the blood loss during periods.
Researchers have proven that calcium rich foods can relieve the pain and trouble caused during periods and pre-menstruation.
Women who consume the most omega-3s have milder period pain. And oily fish such as salmon are packed with these wonderful anti-inflammatory fats.
9. Sunflower seeds
One of the richest sources of vitamin E, which is beneficial for helping to ease sore breasts and period cramps and relieve PMS symptoms.
Increasing your intake of calcium and vitamin D may help to reduce symptoms of PMS. It is also a hearty source of calcium.
The good bacteria cultures in yogurt also promote healthy digestion to soothe tummy troubles during periods.

AC Milan want Matteo Gabbia to follow the same path that has been created by Tommaso Pobega when he goes on loan to Sampdoria, a report claims.
As has been reported by Calciomercato.com, the Rossoneri are going to loan Gabbia out to Sampdoria once they have confirmed a deal for a new defender to bring depth to the squad.
They want the Italian to take inspiration from how the last year of Pobega’s career has gone.
The midfielder was not very close to the first team but had a season on loan at Torino. He became a key player for the Granata and now is returning to Milan with the chance to play very regularly in Stefano Pioli’s side.
Milan think that Gabbia could do something very similar if he has a successful time at Sampdoria under Marco Giampaolo. He will hope that Milan can sign a player like Abdou Diallo soon to allow him to join up with Sampdoria. | [

Today we begin our orderly reading, on Sundays in Ordinary Time, through the Gospel of St. Luke. We omit for now the infancy narrative found in Luke’s first two Chapters. We heard it all very recently during the Advent and Christmas Seasons. We omit also now Luke’s Chapter 3, which recounts the ministry of St. John the Baptist, and the Baptism of Jesus, followed by his temptation for 40 days in the wilderness. So today, after hearing the opening dedication to Theophilus, with Luke’s statement of intent, we pass immediately to the scene in the synagogue of Nazareth. It is here that St. Luke chooses to begin his account of the public ministry of Jesus.
The Spirit of the Lord has been given to me... for he has sent me to preach the good news to the poor.
We have been reminded, in no uncertain terms, by Pope Francis, that among all the Evangelists, St. Luke is the one above all who chooses to highlight the Mercy of Jesus. St. Luke’s is the Gospel too, which more than the others, gives a privileged place to the poor, and the outcast, and sinners. The Gospel of St. Luke is the Gospel, beyond all others, of the gentleness and compassion of Jesus; it’s also the Gospel of the Holy Spirit, of prayer, of joy, and of the mission to the gentiles. Like St. Paul, whose companion and disciple he was, Luke was not a personal eyewitness of the life of Jesus. But he knew plenty of people who were, and his faith was one with theirs: the faith of the Catholic Church.
Theophilus, to whom Luke’s Gospel is dedicated, already had that faith. Luke’s stated purpose in writing is not so much to convert him, as to demonstrate how securely based is this faith Theophilus has professed. There is nothing uncertain, or delusive, or erroneous, or impermanent about it (ἀ-σφαλης). But St. Luke doesn’t just assert that, as a second hand car salesman might. He wants Theophilus - he wants us - to go carefully through the evidence, with him, and come to that conclusion for ourselves. So he will tell the story of Jesus. He will invite us to fix our attention on Jesus, as the congregation at Nazareth did; listening to his words; watching his actions; hearing also those who bear witness to him, and those who oppose him. We will follow Jesus from the beginning, through his miraculous birth, his obscure childhood, to his public ministry, with his teaching and parables, his acts of healing power, and his conflicts with the authorities. Most importantly we will hear the account of his passion, death, resurrection and ascension. Then in St. Luke’s second volume we will follow the story through, with the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, and the wonderful birth and early drama of the Church.
Being part of our holy scriptures, we believe that St. Luke’s Gospel is inspired by the Holy Spirit; the very Spirit who filled Jesus, and who also anointed us at our baptism. As we read, then, we can presume the presence and help of the Holy Spirit, to strengthen, underscore, deepen our faith. We should ask the Holy Spirit to help us encounter Jesus ourselves directly in the text: that we may know again his fascination, his attraction, his beauty, his goodness, his holiness, his humility, his power. Please God our reading of St. Luke’s Gospel this year will renew us in faith and hope and love, and will confirm us in our resolution to live as disciples of Jesus, and to be ready, if necessary, to die for him.
In his opening dedication, St. Luke asserts that the account he proposes to write will be “orderly”. I recently read a suggestion that I found helpful, about Luke’s understanding of what “orderly” might mean here. It is very much connected with the certainty, or security, or conviction of the faith to which Luke wants to bear witness. Of crucial importance to that certainty is that God is faithful to his word, to his promises, to his revelation. The “order” of Luke’s account is therefore God’s own order: that the message came first to the Jews, and then to the gentiles. We find this same emphasis in St. Paul, the Apostle of the gentiles. In Romans Chapter 9 we read: It was the Israelites who were adopted as children; the glory was theirs and the covenants; to them was given the Law, and the worship of God, and the promises. To them belong the fathers, and out of them, so far as physical descent is concerned, came Christ who is above all, God blessed for ever, Amen (9:4-5).

For me, the difference is solitude is something you WANT
and feel comfortable with, a peaceful, relaxing and
inspirational space, and loneliness is an UNWANTED
experience of being on your own.
I believe one of the greatest fears we have is the fear of
loneliness, especially the loneliness that we feel when
we are without a lover.
This fear traps many of us into unfulfilling or
destructive relationships, or leads us into pursuing the
wrong person just to AVOID being on our own.
When The Hermit appears in your reading, it may represent
the loneliness you feel at the time. And remember, it is
possible to feel more isolated and lonely in an unhappy
relationship or marriage than when you are actually on your
If this is the case, the card is suggesting you take time
out for inner reflection. In fact, The Hermit is also known
as the Contemplation card in some Tarot decks. Why do you
feel lonely? What can you do to help turn unwanted
loneliness into welcome solitude?
Do you believe you can transform your loneliness into
solitude? I believe you can. Focus on contemplating
positive opportunities and outcomes. Spend your time
reflecting on past joys and accomplishments. Consider what
you can do with your life to create more satisfaction and
The Hermit is saying ‘take your time and chill out, don’t
make any hasty or impetuous decisions, THINK about the
issues in your life carefully and from a more open-minded
perspective and with a more positive attitude’.
The card also suggests you should be patient, as it may
take a little more time before the period of unwanted
loneliness you are suffering will pass. Of course, it can
also mean don’t let the fear of loneliness hold you back
from making an important decision!
When The Hermit appears in your readings, don’t rush any
decisions, take time out to think about and contemplate
your options carefully, and if you feel lonely consider how
you can change the way you view your ‘loneliness’ to create
a sense of solitude instead.
Love and Joy,
omg! i tried this online tarot reading before (sheyzz this is your fault! hehehe!) that was around may i think... i registered there so they kept on sending me mails (mostly advertisments) but when i checked my mail, i found this email from them... and OH-MY-GOLAY! her letter told me what to do to my problem! (how the hell did they know that i was miserable?!?! maybe they are reading my blog...lolz) but holy S**T! i got goosebumps the moment i finished reading the letter... yikes! but then i think it will help me... a lot! she's right... i'm just lonely, i just have to channel my energies to other stuff rather than just sulking on what is happening to me right now... i really really have to focus on my studies (now that i am almost finished...) yeah... i will! and maybe a little sports wouldnt hurt... i need exercise...badly!... my body is not functioning well, i dont get to sleep that much anymore and i feel so restless... maybe i will just folloew her advice... there's nothing to lose :) thanks alison! ;) | [

Marriage as an institution is perhaps the oldest institution on earth that was instituted or designed by GOD. It is widely said that in this marriage institution, there are those outside the institution that are craving to get in while there are those that are inside but are craving to get out.
Yes, the above assertion is true when we realize that there are many single men and women whose utmost heart desires are to get married. On the other hand, there are those who rushed into marriage only to start to regret ever getting married, as some rush out soon because what they saw was not what they expected.
If you are married or intending to get married, for your marriage to work, and be a success instead of ending in a failure. That is to say, for you to enjoy your marriage to the fullest instead of enduring your marriage, then one must absolutely ready and willing to follow strictly God’s blueprints for a successful marriage.
In other words, marriages succeed or fail depends on or are determined by whether one is following God’s blueprint or not. Most of the failed marriages in our society today are caused by the inability or failure to follow God’s blueprint for a successful marriage.
We shall therefore be looking at these blueprints. First and foremost, we shall look at what God said in Genesis 2:18 where The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”
From the above verse, every man should realize that if God said that it is not good for the man to be alone, it is not therefore not good to seek to be alone.
However, the main emphasis is on what God said following this argument that it is not good for a man to be alone. God took action to remedy man’s loneliness, saying “I will make a helper suitable for him”.
That is to say, in the mind of God, the essence of creating a woman is to fulfill one main purpose of being a helper and companion for man. In other words, as a woman, you must at all times see yourself as a helper and companion for your husband.
The moment any woman deviates from performing this singular role, that marriage will be heading for disaster or failure. That is one of the reasons many marriages are falling apart and some end in divorce.
On the other way round, some men are equally not following God’s blueprint for a successful marriage. This regard is in the sense that they have abandoned their responsibilities at home, thereby leaving the entire responsibility to the woman who originally was meant to be a helper.
My fellow men, please for no reason should you abandon your responsibility at home, and should see whatever your wife is doing as a helper. For instance, I remembered what happened in my own home some time ago, in which unable to pay the school fees of my children the first week after school resumed or reopened.
That day, I went and withdrew some money from the bank to give to my wife for the children’s school fees. She laughed when I gave her the money as she told me that she had paid the school fees the previous week.
Since I see it as my responsibility to pay the school fees, I still gave her the money to replace the money she used to pay for the fees. Of a truth, I assure you, if you relate very well with your wife, she will take care of most of your responsibilities willingly as she will see such actions as helping you.
However, what I am trying to point out here is that it is wrong for you to compel your helper to help you against her will, as she must do it willingly. It is equally wrong not to help your husband to take care of most of his responsibilities while you are in a position to do so.
This will lead us to God’s blueprint for a successful marriage, which we must follow if we desire to enjoy a successful and exciting marriage. This can be seen in Genesis 2:25.
The above verse said, “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed”.
This verse is loaded, and we shall be looking at these blueprints one by one as it was in the minds of God. We shall be looking at them in detail in part two, as we will end part one here. Shalom! | [

Microcrystalline silicon solar cells with passivated interfaces for high open-circuit voltage
We introduce passivating hetero-interfaces in single-junction microcrystalline silicon (mc-Si:H) solar cells. We investigate the effect of different i–n layer stacks in thin mc-Si:H devices, in which recombination is significant at the interfaces as well as in the bulk material. By applying amorphous silicon passivating layers at the mc-Si:H i–n interface, we show a device with a high open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 608 mV, for a standard Raman crystalline fraction of the i-layer (>50%). This Voc is the highest reported value for a state-of-the-art mc-Si:H device made by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. We also report an efficiency of 9.45% for a solar cell with an absorber layer as thin as 650 nm on an area greater than 1 cm2, and show with a simple crystalline silicon model that for such thin mc-Si:H devices or mc-Si:H devices with a very high bulk-material quality, well-mastered interfaces and doped layers are of paramount importance for high efficiency. | [

AEP7 Laser Pistol (Fallout)

A 3D printable AEP7 laser pistol from the fallout series. It is hard to print (long print times, large parts, lots of support) but the pay-off is most certainly worth it.
Find it here:
To make this you will need several things:
- An assortment of M3 screws and nuts;
- 2 M4 screws for the cilinder;
- A piece of M4 or 4mm shaft as a hinge for the mag holder;
- A stiff flexible tube around 7mm (I used a painted coax cable);
- A tiny piece of strip, aluminum ie. to make tine clamps for the tube;
- plenty of printing material;
- All sorts of paint;
- A color printer to print some of the decals
You will need one of all parts supplied in the downloads, and also as many energy cells as you like, downloaded here:
Printing took me around 30 hours and just above (I had some misprints) 1kg of material. Almost every part needs support, this isn't an easy print.
Next paint it the way you want to. This time (having learned my lesson from the Pip-Boy (it was supposed to be green)) I did my best to get it painted the way it is supposed to be, as game accurate as possible.
I first used filler primer to smooth the parts, then painted in the right colors. After that I weathered all parts using a brush and black paint (and a whole lot of time).
Lastly print all of the decals using a color printer and apply the decals to the model. Some of the texty bits have color added to them to ease the work. you might need to adjust the color of these decals to your paint job. Shock hazard warnings for Hyena_of_dooms' energy cells are also included on the decals sheet.
A switch can be added to the trigger and a potentiometer can be added to the knob on the back. The body is fully open to fit anything you desire (like a red laser pointer).

Budget: pandemic costs more than double the budgeted $15m for the last financial year
The Government has spent more than $100 million to help the public and businesses weather the Covid-19 storm, the Premier said.
David Burt said that, because the pandemic went on longer than expected, the cost of Covid-19 expenditure during the 2021-22 fiscal year was expected to be $35.1 million – more than double the $15 million originally budgeted.
The bulk of the cash was spent on unemployment benefits, Covid-19 testing and lab operations, quarantine centres and the vaccination programme, as well as a $16 million airport minimum revenue guarantee payout.
But Mr Burt said no more cash was expected to be spent on Covid-19 contingencies in the next financial year and Covid-19 related spending would be wrapped in normal Ministry budgets.
Mr Burt added that about 80 per cent of the $100 million spent over the last two years went direct to individuals.
He said the Bermuda Economic Development Corporation also offered “a significant number” of tax rebates and concessions and cash support to keep businesses afloat.
Hotels, bars and restaurants also received $6.7 million in payroll and land tax relief.
Mr Burt added: “The narrative that this government has not helped its people is simply not true.”
Government operating expenses were increased in the last by financial year by almost two per cent more than at first predicted because of pandemic costs at the hospital.
Mr Burt said $11.1 million was given to the Bermuda Hospitals Board to make up for funding shortfalls.
This caused the Government’s operating expenses for the year to hit $904.3 million, excluding the cost of debt service and guarantee management – 1.8 per cent more than the $888 million predicted.
But Mr Burt explained that, to offset the extra costs, the Government “realised savings in salaries, wages, and employee overheads, materials and supplies”. | [

What a wonderful surprise to see my work included in the Most Collected Artists on UGallery.
Acrylic on Canvas
SOLD via Beauchamp Art Gallery
Opera Rose is an original abstract modern painting created with many layers of acrylic on wood panel. Sometimes a painting can take years to complete because it evolves with the artist's journey. In this case, the artwork was started in 2013 and then exhibited in a gallery for several years. Back at the studio, it was refreshed to be incorporated into the Bliss series.
I'm so honoured to have 3 paintings in the Living Room Collection on Ugallery.
Come see this painting and meet me tonight at the Show!
Wow! Six of my paintings have been featured in the Best of White Collection on Ugallery.
I'm so grateful that UGallery included these three paintings in The Mindfulness Art Collection.
"Tall Grasses" made it in the Best of July Artworks collection on UGallery. The collection features new arrivals from the past month.
I changed the design of my website. It’s much more clean and simple looking now. The menu is a drop down type instead of having it in your face. I hope it is easy to navigate. | [
