ATLANTA, May 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — A coalition of criminal justice reform advocates praised Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp for signing into law earlier this week a bill that would streamline processes within the state’s probation system. Senate Bill 105 garnered bipartisan support, passing 169-2 in the Georgia House of Representatives and unanimously in the State Senate. Supporters say it is key to ending a «probation to prison pipeline» that continues to contribute to the problem of overincarceration.
Georgia has more people on community supervision than any other state in the country because of its average lengthy probation term of 6.3 years, compared to the national average of two years. Forty percent of probation sentences in Georgia exceeded 10 years, which has created an environment where 1 of every 18 Georgians are in the supervision system.
SB 105 will allow thousands of Georgians who have proven rehabilitation through good behavior a chance to escape the traps of technical violations – which include things like crossing county lines without permission – that could return them to incarceration. The bill also creates uniform eligibility requirements that protect public safety and incentivize good behavior so that people who are thriving in the community may be released from supervision in a safe and timely manner.
SB 105 is supported by a number of organizations committed to criminal justice reform, including the American Conservative Union, Americans for Prosperity Georgia, End Mass Incarceration Georgia Network, Faith and Freedom Coalition, Fighting Against Institutionalized Railroading, Georgia Justice Project, Greater Gwinnett Reentry Alliance, Law Enforcement Action Partnership, National Incarceration Association, Partnership for Southern Equity, REFORM Alliance, RED, Restore Her, and The Temple.
REFORM Alliance CEO Robert Rooks thanked Georgia lawmakers and Gov. Kemp for passing a bill that makes the probation system more effective and just.
«SB 105 is a bipartisan, evidence-based reform that will safely reduce the prison population, save taxpayer dollars and allow resources to be redirected towards true public safety priorities,» said Rooks. «It is a sensible and essential step toward ensuring a probation system that gives Georgians a meaningful second chance and an opportunity for real redemption.»
REFORM Alliance is a criminal justice nonprofit organization working to create safe communities by dramatically reducing the number of people trapped by the criminal justice system and expanding real pathways to work and wellbeing.
REFORM Alliance works with a bipartisan coalition of allies to support impactful reforms to Probation and Parole systems around the country in a variety of ways. We work directly with legislators and governors to identify or draft and pass bills, increase public awareness and interest with storytelling that communicates experiences of directly impacted individuals through digital and earned media campaigns, and advocate on the ground with our grassroots organizers and partner organizations.

Roman Republic, Lead Glandes Sling-Bullet, 2nd - 1st Century B.C.
According to the contemporary report of Vegatius, Republican slingers had an accurate range of up to six hundred feet. The best sling ammunition was cast from lead. For a given mass, lead, being very dense, offered the minimum size and therefore minimum air resistance. Also, lead sling-bullets were small and difficult to see in flight. In some cases, the lead would be cast in a simple open mold made by pushing a finger, thumb, or sharpened stick into sand and pouring molten metal into the hole. The flat top end was carved to a matching point after the lead cooled. More frequently, they were cast in two-part molds. Sling-bullets were made in a variety of shapes including an ellipsoidal form closely resembling an acorn; possibly the origin of the Latin word for lead sling-bullet: glandes plumbeae (literally leaden acorns) or simply glandes (meaning acorns, singular glans). The most common shape by far was biconical, resembling the shape of an almond or an American football. Why the almond shape was favored is unknown. Possibly there was some aerodynamic advantage, but it seems equally likely that there was a more prosaic reason, such as the shape being easy to extract from a mold, or that it will rest in a sling cradle with little danger of rolling out. Almond-shaped lead sling-bullets were typically about 35 millimeters (1.4 in) long and about 20 millimeters (0.8 in) wide. Sometimes symbols or writings were molded on the side. A thunderbolt, a snake, a scorpion, or others symbols indicating how it might strike without warning were popular. Writing might include the name of the military unit or commander, or was sometimes more imaginative, such as, "Take this," "Ouch," "Catch," or even "For Pompey's backside."AW66458. Lead glandes sling-bullet; cf. Petrie XLIV 15-23; roughly biconical, without symbols or inscriptions, c. 40 - 90 grams, c. 3 - 5 cm long, one sling-bullet randomly selected from the same group as those in the photo, ONE BULLET, BARGAIN PRICED!; $20.00 (€17.60)
Roman, Eastern Mediterranean, Glass Double Balsamarium (Cosmetic Tube), 4th Century A.D.
This type was used to store eye makeup. One tube would have held kohl, a black paste made with powdered galena. The other tube would have held another color, perhaps made with an ochre clay (for red or brown) or powdered malachite (for green or blue).AG20799. cf. Yale Gallery 323, Oppenländer 680a, ROM Glass 458, Corning II 749, Choice, complete and intact, weathering and iridescence, double balsamarium, free-blown thick heavy pale translucent blue-green glass, 20.0 cm (8") tall, two tubes joined side-by-side and sharing a thick globular bottom, applied top "basket" handle attached to applied loop on each side; from the Robert H. Cornell collection, former dealer in Eastern antiquities for 40 years; $1250.00 (€1100.00)
Roman, Syro-Palestinian, Sprinkler Flask, 3rd - 4th Century A.D.
Dropper bottles, such as this one, were filled with scented oil or perfume. The constriction in the neck made it easy to dispense the expensive contents one drop at a time. The swirled design was created by blowing the body into a ribbed mold, removing the glass from the mold, then blowing it again while twisting the bubble. The most unusual feature on this flask is the recessed neck, pushed into the body, a very rare feature.AG20821. cf. Corning II 621, ROM Glass 282, Newark Museum 152, Wolf Collection 154, Carnegie Museum 213, Superb, complete and intact, attractive iridescence, globular body sprinkler flask, transparent blue glass, 11.3 cm (4 3/8") tall, 4.4 cm (1 3/4") widest diameter, beautifully made | [

Lamb's Ear is a beautiful ornamental and medicinal plant that brings a lovely presence to your garden or yard. The thickish gray leaves are covered in a soft fluff that attractive and useful. In the past, the leaves were used to bandage wounds in the field and has been used as "boyscout toilet paper." The extract of this plant has been shown to be antimicrobial against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Lamb's Ear flowers in late spring and early summer, plants produce tall spike-like stems with a few reduced leaves. The flowers are small and either white or pink. The plants tend to be evergreen but can "die" back during cold winters and regenerate new growth from the crowns. In warmer climates they may grow year-round, but suffer where it's hot and humid. They are easy to grow, preferring partial shade to full sunlight and well-drained soils not rich in nitrogen. They grow to 18-24" tall and are perennials in zones 4-9.

There are many types of landscaping edging, and there are multiple factors that go into choosing the correct one. Landscape edging is great for looks and practical divide between different areas of your lawn, garden, or driveway.
When determining which type of landscape edging is best for you, be sure to consider what kind of edging will compliment your house and lawn. We’ll show you which edging should blend in and highlight the best elements of your landscape.
Table of Contents
Natural Landscape Edgings
A more natural edging will consist of, you guessed it, natural materials. These types of edgings will be a bit more organic in their appearance, blending in a bit more than simulated edgings.
Flowers, Shrubs, and Grasses
One of the more prominent types of landscape edging, plants provide the most natural look. This includes:
- Ground covers or plants that will fill an area and keep weeds at bay. Examples of Ground Covers are: Basket of Gold, Bunch Berry, or Wall Germander
- Flowers such as Alyssum, Thrift, or Barrenwort
- Small Shrubbery, such as ferns or boxwoods
- Shorter, low-growing ornamental grass such as Silver Grass
- Taller, clump-forming grass such as Fountain Grass Ornamental grasses.
Mulch is Low Effort
Mulch is an incredibly effective, low-effort landscape edging. All this type of edging requires, is the removal of a strip of grass from the edges of:
- Flower beds
- Lawn borders
Then replace that area with mulch. If you’re going to change that area in the future – such as a garden or a walkway – this is an incredibly beneficial type of edging since it’s so easy to adjust.
Gravel, Stones, and Rock Create a Natural Look
Rocks or stone edging can look as natural or as simulated as you choose. The benefit of rock or stone edging is its ability to conform to the curves of any boundary you might require.
You can either utilize a simple path of:
- Small rocks,
- Row of cut stone
A stack of stones can create a nice contrasting retaining wall for flowerbeds. They can also be used to line a pool edge or garden ponds. Stone edging is weather resistant and extremely durable. They are heavy, however, and will require some labor to construct in addition to usually being a little expensive.
Wood Comes in Treated and UnTreated
There are two types of wood edging: treated and untreated. Though wood edging is a little more rigid when it comes to conforming to an area’s curves, it creates a much more natural aesthetic, especially in a more temperate, forested area. Both untreated and treated wood tends to be more affordable than some other types of natural landscape edging.
Many people use treated landscaping timbers as edging for flower beds or walkways. Though it looks visually appealing and will last much longer than untreated wood, it is called treated because of the chemicals used in the wood such as arsenic, chromium, and copper.
These chemicals can and will leach into the surrounding ground after a year or two, affecting both the surrounding plant life, and beneficial insects that aid in decomposing plant matter, pollinating crops, and keeping away detrimental pests.
Untreated wood is much better for the environment, especially if you’re using it as edging for a vegetable garden. Though it will need to be replaced, as untreated wood deteriorates over time, the decomposing wood will add nutrients to the surrounding soil.
Simulated Landscape Edgings
Simulated landscape edgings are not better or worse than natural landscape edgings; it’s more about what style is more appropriate for the aesthetic you are trying to achieve.
There is a wide variety with these types of landscape edgings, as they can be textured, colored, and as vibrant or hidden as you choose to make them.
Metallic Edging Conforms to Curves
Metal edging is extremely long-lasting and provides a more commercial look. Metal landscape edgings tend to be made of aluminum or steel, malleable metals that can conform to any curves but can also be used in a straight line.
Over time, due to weather exposure, metal can rust, unless it’s aluminum or stainless steel. Metal ranges widely in price, but more decorative versions can be expensive.
We chose the metal landscaping edging for our backyard shown above and really like how it looks. We show how we installed our metal landscape edging in this separate article.
Synthetic Plastics May Crack in Cold
Plastic edging is one of the most widely used types of landscape edging due to its ease of installation and afford | [

Anyone ever soldered a muzzle brake to the end of a barrel? I've got a.375 Weatherby with a muzzle diameter of 0.650". Rifle weighs ~7 1/2 lbs without any scope mounted. I fired three rounds prone and became nauseous about 15 minutes later, wearing a sissy pad on my shoulder. The kick isn't tolerable as is, and the barrel doesn't have enough steel to comfortably thread, according to some of the recommendations I've read. I'm considering purchasing a 5/8 -24 thread brake and lathing out the threads to match the diameter of the barrel. Then soldering the brake on the muzzle. Any reason why this shouldn't be done? This is a factory Sako, close range use rifle with a 22 1/2" long barrel. | [

Today we noticed that our barnevelder is missing feathers on the back of her neck. She hasn't been laying even though we have artificial lighting going, and she's a winter layer breed. She's 30 weeks old, to young to molt... Right??? We also noticed the tiniest drop of blood. can't see it in photo. This is what it looks like... Neck downish Neck up Feel like such a bad chicken owner! Can't believe we didn't see this till today! Have got no idea how long she's had it. I'm also not sure if she's being pecked since she's one of our original 8. We had to give to roosters away, so we replaced them with 4. We put the babies in with the big girls on the roost bar about 1 and 1/2 weeks ago? She's really been pecking them. So I thought she couldn't have been getting pecked herself? If she is molting, i think she'll grow these feathers back? But if she's being pecked will she ever get them back?? Thanks for your Help!!!! | [

Do you have a favorite color, or perhaps two or three preferred colors? And are these preferences reflected in your yarn stash? If so, we have some suggestions to incorporate your color palette into knitting projects.
One of the easiest ways to use several colors is to alternate them in rows or rounds. If your project is in garter or stockinette stitch, the result is stripes like in the dramatic Rope Dance Shawl. But in a pattern featuring lace, you can change colors when the stitch pattern changes. The result is a striking fabric that emphasizes the different lace patterns.
One of HCW’s yarn fairies, Kaiwen, recently finished the Red Rock Canyon shawl designed by Romi Hill. She chose the Shalimar Breathless, in two colors, Bing and American Beauty. The result is a soft but light shawl that feels like a warm embrace. The subtle changes in color emphasize the lace patterns with grace.
A different knitting challenge is colorwork, including Fair Isle. For this technique, you knit with two colors on one row or round.
Renee Womack designed the Cold Front Cowl with both traditional Fair Isle motifs and contemporary figures. Renee used fourteen colors of Fibre Company’s Road to China Light for this cowl. This yarn is a soft blend of alpaca, silk, camel, and cashmere — a far cry from the usual 100% wool yarn that most knitters chose for colorwork.
And Renee is teaching this technique in her class, Adventures in Colorwork this month at HCW. You can use her Cold Front Cowl pattern, or venture out on your own!

Background: Investigators have attempted to derive tools that could provide clinicians with an easily obtainable estimate of the chance of vaginal birth after cesarean delivery for those who undertake trial of labor after cesarean delivery. One tool that has been validated externally was derived from data from the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Units Cesarean Registry. However, concern has been raised that this tool includes the socially constructed variables of race and ethnicity.
Objective: This study aimed to develop an accurate tool to predict vaginal birth after cesarean delivery, using data easily obtainable early in pregnancy, without the inclusion of race and ethnicity.
Study design: This was a secondary analysis of the Cesarean Registry of the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Units Network. The approach to the current analysis is similar to that of the analysis in which the previous vaginal birth after cesarean delivery prediction tool was derived. Specifically, individuals were included in this analysis if they were delivered on or after 37 0/7 weeks' gestation with a live singleton cephalic fetus at the time of labor and delivery admission, had a trial of labor after cesarean delivery, and had a history of 1 previous low-transverse cesarean delivery. Information was only considered for inclusion in the model if it was ascertainable at an initial prenatal visit. Model selection and internal validation were performed using a cross-validation procedure, with the dataset randomly and equally divided into a training set and a test set. The training set was used to identify factors associated with vaginal birth after cesarean delivery and build the logistic regression predictive model using stepwise backward elimination. A final model was generated that included all variables found to be significant (P<.05). The accuracy of the model to predict vaginal birth after cesarean delivery was assessed using the concordance index. The independent test set was used to estimate classification errors and validate the model that had been developed from the training set, and calibration was assessed. The final model was then applied to the overall analytical population.
Results: Of the 11,687 individuals who met the inclusion criteria for this secondary analysis, 8636 (74%) experienced vaginal birth after cesarean delivery. The backward elimination variable selection yielded a model from the training set that included maternal age, prepregnancy weight, height, indication for previous cesarean delivery, obstetrical history, and chronic hypertension. Vaginal birth after cesarean delivery was significantly more likely for women who were taller and had a previous vaginal birth, particularly if that vaginal birth had occurred after a previous cesarean delivery. Conversely, vaginal birth after cesarean delivery was significantly less likely for women whose age was older, whose weight was heavier, whose indication for previous cesarean delivery was arrest of dilation or descent, and who had a history of medication-treated chronic hypertension. The model had excellent calibration between predicted and empirical probabilities and, when applied to the overall analytical population, an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.75 (95% confidence interval, 0.74-0.77), which is similar to the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the previous model (0.75) that included race and ethnicity.
Conclusion: We successfully derived an accurate model (available at https://mfmunetwork.bsc.gwu.edu/web/mfmunetwork/vaginal-birth-after-cesarean-calculator), which did not include race or ethnicity, for the estimation of the probability of vaginal birth after cesarean delivery.

Below is a quick rundown of a few Ford SUVs and crossover models and their features.
The Ford Bronco is a rugged and versatile SUV that can handle even the most challenging off-roading adventures. This versatile SUV can handle various tasks, from towing trailers to hauling cargo and everyday driving, with ample room for passengers and cargo. It’s available in two-door and four-door body styles and offers a choice of three roofs: a soft top, a hardtop, and a Sasquatch package with a wide stance and exclusive off-road features.
The Bronco Sport is a compact SUV suitable for off-roading and everyday drives. Compared to the Bronco, it’s more maneuverable and is a good choice for families who want the power of an SUV and the flexibility of a crossover. A highlight of the Bronco Sport is that it offers terrain-specific driving features that make it easy for drivers of all ages and experience levels.
A subcompact SUV, the Ford EcoSport offers a balance of affordability and urban practicality. If you’re looking for a small SUV that can handle your daily commutes and weekend adventures, the EcoSport is a good choice. Available in front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive, it’s one of the most affordable SUVs on the market, making it a great choice for budget-conscious drivers.
Another compact SUV is the Ford Escape, which strikes the right balance between fuel efficiency, capability, and technology. It can handle various tasks, from daily commuting to long road trips with the family. The Escape hybrid is a good choice for eco-conscious drivers. It offers a spacious interior with seating for up to five passengers as well as a generous cargo area that can be expanded by folding down the rear seats. It also has a towing capacity of up to 2,000 pounds, making it capable of hauling lighter loads and trailers.
A midsize SUV, the Ford Edge is a popular choice for families looking for a spacious, comfortable car with plenty of room for passengers and cargo. It’s available in several powertrain options, including a turbocharged engine and a fuel-efficient hybrid. The bold front grille and sleek and stylish design set it apart from other midsize SUVs.
A full-size SUV, the Ford Expedition offers a powerful engine, robust suspension, and an array of features, making it the ideal choice for off-road adventures and hauling heavy loads. It has a spacious interior that can accommodate up to eight passengers and a generous cargo area.
Another midsize SUV, the Explorer, has one of the roomiest interiors of all Ford vehicles. With ample legroom and headroom, along with cushioning and supportive seats, it can easily seat up to seven adults. It also offers an optional all-wheel drive for enhanced traction in slippery conditions.
The primary difference between a crossover and an SUV is the platform on which the vehicle is built. SUVs are built on a truck chassis, while crossovers use a car chassis. Furthermore, a crossover employs unibody construction. This means the body and chassis are created as a single piece. On the other hand, SUVs have a body-on-frame construction, meaning the body and chassis are built separately and joined together later.
As a result, crossovers have a lower center of gravity than SUVs and are lighter. This makes crossovers more fuel-efficient and easier to handle. The downside is that crossovers have a lower ground clearance than SUVs and are less suited for off-road driving. On the other hand, SUVs are larger, heavier, and more powerful than crossovers and have a higher ground clearance. This makes them more suitable for towing and off-road driving. The downside is that SUVs are more challenging to maneuver and are less fuel-efficient when compared to crossovers.
You can opt for a crossover if you’re looking for a fuel-efficient, versatile vehicle. Go for an SUV if you’re looking for a powerful drive suitable for off-roading and rugged terrains.
Both hybrid and standard SUVs have their distinct strengths and drawbacks. That said, the right choice depends on your individual needs and preferences. Here are a few factors that help you make an informed decision:
Ultimately, the best way to decide between a hybrid or standard SUV is to get behind the wheel of both. Schedule a test drive at Cochran Ford Boardman, take our crossovers or hybrid and standard SUVs out for a spin, and choose the one that best fits your needs, budget, and driving preferences.
Cochran Ford is the #1 Ford dealership in Youngstown, OH. We offer a vast inventory of the latest Ford SUVs for sale. Irrespective of whether you select a hybrid or standard SUV, we offer secure and affordable financing and leasing. We work with trusted financial partners | [

During the meeting, the Yemeni Minister of Oil Mr. Khalid Bahah discussed with the Polish minister the potential of boosting the relations in the field of oil and gas, and incorporating Polish oil firms in the international competitions for oil and gas fields in Yemen. He, also, affirmed the Polish firms' bid to import oil and gas from Yemen will be reviewed.
Mr. Bahah welcomed the Polish investment in oil, gas, and mining, affirming his ministry's keenness to open competition chances for international firms in Yemen's oil and gas fields. His ministry will announce the international competitions on Yemen's oil and gas fields during the coming period.
Meanwhile, the Yemeni Prime Minister Mr. Ali Mujawwar discussed with the Polish delegation the ways of improving investment cooperation between the two countries, especially with regard to oil, gas, modern irrigation techniques, and fishery.
Mujawwar briefed the Polish delegation on the potentialities of boosting mutual relations and interests for both countries. For his part, Mr. Wo_niak said that he would encourage Polish firms to visit Yemen and learn about the available investment opportunities.

SUNDAY MORNING COSTUMES: COVERING UP THE PROBLEM
"Beware of [those] who like to walk around in long robes."
—JESUS CHRIST IN LUKE 20:46, NASB
"Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit,
after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not
—PAUL OF TARSUS IN COLOSSIANS 2:8
EVERY SUNDAY MORNING, millions of Protestants throughout the world put on their best clothes to attend Sunday morning church.1 But no one seems to question why. Hundreds of
[Denominations like the Vineyard are the exception. Such neo-denominations espouse a casual form of worship that typically includes coffee and doughnuts before the service. Shorts and T-shirts are common apparel in a Vineyard church service. Most congregants in the 320,000 U.S. Protestant churches "dress up" for Sunday morning church. If we add the number of non-Protestant Christians who dress up for church, the number is astronomical]
thousands of pastors wear special garb that separates them from their congregants. And no one seems to care.
Admittedly the dress has become more casual in a number of churches over the past few decades. A person dressed in denim can walk into the sanctuaries of many churches today without getting dirty looks. Yet dressing up for church is still a common practice in many churches. In this chapter, we will explore the origin of "dressing up" for church. We will also trace the roots of the clergy's special attire.
DRESSING UP FOR CHURCH
The practice of dressing up for church is a relatively recent phenomenon.2 It began in the late-eighteenth century with the Industrial Revolution, and it became widespread in the mid-nineteenth century. Before this time, "dressing up" for social events was known only among the very wealthy. The reason was simple. Only the well-to-do aristocrats of society could afford nice clothing! Common folks had only two sets of clothes: work clothes for laboring in the field and less tattered clothing for going into town.3
Dressing up for any occasion was only an option for the wealthiest nobility.4 From medieval times until the eighteenth century, dress was a clear marker of one's social class. In places like England, poor people were actually forbidden to wear the clothing of the "better" people.5
This changed with the invention of mass textile manufacturing and the development of urban society.6 Fine clothes became more affordable to the common people. The middle class was born, and those within it were able to emulate the envied aristocracy. For the first time, the middle class could distinguish themselves from the
2. Dressing "decently" for church service goes back to around the third century. Clement of Alexandria (150-215) put it this way:
"Woman and man are to go to church decently attired, with natural step, embracing silence... let the woman observe this further. Let her be entirely covered, unless she happens to be at home." ("Going to Church," The Instructor, bk. 3. ch. 11.)
3. Max Barsis, The Common Man through the Centuries (New York: linger, 1973).
4. Leigh Eric Schmidt, "A Church Going People Is a Dress-Loving People," Church History[5S), 38-39.
6. James Hargreaves invented the "spinning jenny" in 1764, creating finer, more colorful clothing that was affordable to the masses.
Elizabeth Ewing, Everyday Dress 1650-1900 (London: Batsford, 1984), 56-57.
peasants.7 To demonstrate their newly improved status, they could now "dress up" for social events just like the well-to-do.8
Some Christian groups in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries resisted this cultural trend. John Wesley wrote against wearing expensive or flashy clothing.9 The early Methodists so resisted the idea of dressing up for church that they turned away anyone who wore expensive clothing to their meetings.10 The early Baptists also condemned 'fine clothing,' teaching that it separated the rich from the poor.11
Despite these protests, mainstream Christians began wearing fine clothes whenever they could. The growing middle class prospered, desiring bigger homes, larger church buildings, and fancier clothing.12 As the Victorian enculturation of the middle class grew, fancier church buildings began to draw more influential people in society.13
This all came to a head when in 1843, Horace Bushnell, an influential Congregational minister in Connecticut, published an essay called "Taste and Fashion." In it, Bushnell argued that sophistic | [

mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-08-21 12:56:41. Auger drilling is done with a helical screw which is driven into the ground with rotation; the earth is lifted up the borehole by the blade of the screw. Hollow stem auger drilling is used for softer ground such as swamps where the hole will not stay open by itself for environmental drilling, geotechnical drilling, soil engineering and geochemistry reconnaissance work in exploration for mineral deposits.
mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-09-17 19:40:41. Antique drilling rig now on display at Western History Museum in Lingle, Wyoming. It was used to drill many water wells in that area—many of those wells are still in use.
mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-09-17 19:41:04. Until internal combustion engines were developed in the late 19th century, the main method for drilling rock was muscle power of man or animal. The drilling of wells for the manufacture of salt began by the Song Dynasty in China.
mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-09-17 19:45:52. Small to medium-sized drilling rigs are mobile, such as those used in mineral exploration drilling, blast-hole, water wells and environmental investigations. Larger rigs are capable of drilling through thousands of metres of the Earth s crust, using large "mud pumps" to circulate drilling mud (slurry) through the drill bit and up the casing annulus, for cooling and removing the "cuttings" while a well is drilled.
mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-09-18 09:18:38. Mining drilling rigs are used for two main purposes, exploration drilling which aims to identify the location and quality of a mineral, and production drilling, used in the production-cycle for mining.
mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-09-17 19:31:07. Large truck drills can use over 570 litres (150 US gal) of fuel per day, while the smaller Deeprock Style portable drills use a mere 20 to 75 litres (5 to 20 US gal) of fuel per day. This makes smaller, more portable rigs preferable in remote or hard-to-reach places, and they are more cost effective when fuel prices are high.
mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-09-17 19:55:22. Small mobile drilling rigs are also used to drill or bore piles. Rigs can range from 100 ton continuous flight auger (CFA) rigs to small air powered rigs used to drill holes in quarries, etc. These rigs use the same technology and equipment as the oil drilling rigs, just on a smaller scale.

mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-09-18 10:01:18. This frees up the drilling rig to drill another hole and streamlines the operation as well as allowing for specialization of certain services, i.e., completions vs. drilling.
mr.wicks Drilling, 2017-09-17 19:37:16. Drilling rigs can be mobile equipment mounted on trucks, tracks or trailers, or more permanent land or marine-based structures (such as oil platforms, commonly called offshore oil rigs even if they don t contain a drilling rig). The term "rig" therefore generally refers to the complex equipment that is used to penetrate the surface of the Earth s crust.

Autumn ( March -May)
Autumn on Kangaroo Island is ideal for those who want to experience well-lit days in the outdoors while rugging up at night to enjoy a Kangaroo Island red wine over dinner. For bushwalkers and photographers, March to May are the ideal months to visit. Birdwatchers will enjoy sightings of rare birdlife, while wildflowers are blooming all over the Island. In the inviting season of Autumn, opportunities to explore the Island are endless.
The mild temperatures and dry conditions this time of year allow for walks of any nature; long, short, easy or difficult. The walk from Harvey’s Return to Cape Borda takes a few hours and is filled with rewarding sights. The Ironstone Hike is soaked in local history and begins from Penneshaw, with fantastic views of the mainland to be seen. The Flinders Chase Coastal Trek is a 3-day hike from Cape Borda to West Bay, ideal for experienced hikers to explore. Those looking for a short walk should try the Tadpole Cove walk at D’Estrees Bay, for a taste of history and geology.
Photography and wildflowers
In Autumn on Kangaroo Island, the native vegetation is in full bloom. Ideal for photographers, gardening enthusiasts or anyone who enjoys the beauty of nature, the scenery is fantastic. Banksias, peapods and gumnuts lining vast landscapes, as well as mallee expanses sparkling in the sun, groves of tall sugar gums that will stun you and sheoak woodlands drooping low are just a taste of what you’ll find around the Island.
Fishing and boating
The mild and calm weather at time of year makes for a relaxed and comfortable fishing climate. Over Easter weekend, the annual American River Fishing Spectactular competition takes place, where you’ll be able to engage in friendly competition with the locals. Boating and kayaking is also a wonderful activity in the mild weather, ideal to soak up the bright days but curl up by the fire at nighttime.

Results of multivariable logistic regression, propensity matching, propensity adjustment, and propensity-based weighting under conditions of nonuniform effect.
Authors: Kurth T, Walker AM, Glynn RJ, Chan KA, Gaziano JM, Berger K, Robins JM.
Observational studies often provide the only available information about treatment effects. Control of confounding, however, remains challenging. The authors compared five methods for evaluating the effect of tissue plasminogen activator on death among 6,269 ischemic stroke patients registered in a German stroke registry: multivariable logistic regression, propensity score-matched analysis, regressionadjustment with the propensity score, and two propensity score-based weighted methods-one estimating the treatment effect in the entire study population (inverse-probability-of-treatment weights), another in the treated population (standardized-mortality-ratio weights). | [

ASN Report 2017
96 ASN report on the state of nuclear safety and radiation protection in France in 2017 Chapter 03 - Regulations 1.2.4 Protection of the general public in a long-term exposure situation As defined in the French regulations, situations of lasting exposure to ionising radiation cover the situations following a radiological emergency situation which led to long-term contamination of the environment or property by radioactive substances on the one hand (post-accident situations) and any other situation of contamination by radioactive substances on the other (contaminated sites and soils). For post-accident situations, the regulations set a reference effective dose level of 20 mSv for the first year after the end of the radiological emergency situation for anyone exposed to radioactive substances as a result of the situation, in order to define the initial management strategy for the contaminated land, which is then reassessed yearly, with the eventual aim of reaching a reference effective dose level over one year of 1 mSv added to the background level predating the situation. For the other cases, the contamination of sites by radioactive substances is the result of a nuclear activity in the remote or more recent past (use of unsealed sources, radium industry, etc.) or an industrial activity utilising raw materials containing non-negligible quantities of natural radionuclides of the uranium or thorium family (activity generating exposure to “enhanced” natural radiation, see point 2.3.2). Most of these sites are listed in the inventory updated periodically and published by the French National Agency for Radioactive Waste Management (Andra). The contamination of the sites can also be the result of accidental releases of radioactive substances into the environment (see chapter 5). For these situations, in accordance with the international texts, no population exposure limit is set by the regulations: management of these sites is primarily based on a case by case application of the optimisation principle, taking account of a reference level of 1 mSv/year. A guide on the management of sites potentially contaminated by radioactive substances (published in December 2011), drafted under the coordination of ASN and the Ministry of the Environment, assisted by IRSN, describes how to deal with the various situations that could be encountered in the framework of the remediation of sites contaminated by radioactive substances. 2. Regulatory requirements applicable to small-scale nuclear activities The expression “small-scale nuclear” refers to medical, industrial and research activities utilising sources of ionising radiation when not covered by the BNI or ICPE Systems. They in particular concern the manufacture, possession and utilisation, distribution of radioactive sources and devices containing said sources, as well as electrical devices emitting ionising radiation. They also concern import and export, as well as transport. 2.1 Procedures and rules applicable to small-scale nuclear activities The procedures and rules applicable to small-scale nuclear activities, when they are not the beneficiaries of an exemption, are described in sections 6, 7 and 8 of Chapter III of Title III of Book III of the first part of the Public Health Code. ASN issues licenses and authorisations, carries out registration and receives notifications. 2.1.1 The existing licensing system and its changes The licensing system applies to companies or facilities which have and use sources of ionising radiation, but also to those that trade in them or use them but without directly possessing them. The ASN license may be issued for a limited period. In this case it can be renewed. The license application or notification is made with a form that can be downloaded from the www.asn.fr website or obtained from the ASN regional divisions. The conditions for filing license applications, established by Articles R. 1333-119 to R1333-124 of the Public Health Code, are set out by ASN resolution 2010-DC-192 of 22nd July 2010, which establishes the content of the files enclosed with the license application. The requirements applicable to the medical and non-medical fields are harmonised. It should be noted that the nuclear activities carried out in BNIs, ICPEs and facilities regulated under the Mining Code are not subject to the authorisation system of the Public Health Code (see chapter 10) but are however subject to the general regulations applicable to nuclear activities described in the Public Health Code. Licenses in the medical field ASN issues licenses for the use of radionuclides, products or devices containing them, used in nuclear medicine, FOCUS Update of the system of procedures applicable to small scale nuclear activities The decree under preparation provides the clarifications necessary for the implementation of the new system of procedures applicable to small-scale nuclear activities, pursuant to Article L. 1333-7 of the Public Health Code. A more graded approach to regulation will make it possible to implement a third system, between notification and authorisation: this is a simplified authorisation system called the “Registration System”. ASN is working on a breakdown of the various categories of nuclear activities among these three systems, on drafting the general requirements applicable to some of these activities and on defining the content of the notification and registration | [

- 2 Tips on how to find the best face wash for boys
- 3 The Dos and don’ts of Using Face Wash for Boys
- 4 Best face wash for boys reviews
‘I don’t want to do it!’ ‘But I showered in the morning!’ ‘I don’t feel dirty!’ Many are the days, moms have arguments with their boys when it’s time to wash their face. What these boys don’t realize is that the face is a very sensitive part of their body. Most boys lead a very active life. They are always out running, cycling and engaging in all other sort of ‘mischievous’ activities.
When day end comes they want nothing to do with cleaning or water. However, the face is the most susceptible yet most exposed part of the human body. Every mom knows that in order to keep their boys faces healthy and free of common conditions like acne, they must encourage them to clean their faces often.
For this reason, here is a deeper look into a number of crucial aspects in regard to facial hygiene.
Why face wash is important for boys
Removes dirt and build up
A good face wash helps to not only remove dirt but also helps get rid of dead skin cells, excess oil and accumulated impurities on the skin. Owing to exposure from a day filled with outdoor activities, the face comes into contact with pollutants, bacteria, dirt and even viruses. Cleaning your face daily, therefore, keeps you safe from serious health problems such as viral infections and chronic acne among other issues.
Improves level of hydration
To hydrate the skin it is imperative that you drink enough water. However, this doesn’t nullify the importance of cleaning your face and thereafter moisturizing your skin. Boys, therefore, should make it a habit to use face wash to clean their face and remember to moisturize right after. Neglecting to do so leaves you with uncomfortably dry and dirty skin that shows wrinkles, fine lines among other signs of aging.
Helps maintain even complexion
Under the skin exists glands that produce a protective oil called sebum. Sebum is responsible for keeping harmful external agents like dirt and bacteria from getting under the skin. Not washing your face regularly means over accumulation of sebum, dirt, and bacteria. This opens a can of worms into serious skin issues such as redness, inflammation, uneven skin complexion, and acute acne. Using the best face wash for boys, on the other hand, helps clear the pores of all impurities hence minimizing the chance of an acne breakout and more importantly maintains even complexion.
Dangers associated with poor facial hygiene
- Acne breakouts
- Bacterial or viral skin infections
- Clogged Pores
- Dry itchy skin
- Irritation owing to dirt and poor hydration
Tips on how to find the best face wash for boys
It can be confusing when you are faced with a counter full of different face wash products with no way of knowing how to tell one from the other. For this reason, here are some tips to help you eliminate try and error from the equation and find exactly what you need.
Do you know your skin type? It is important that you know whether you have oily skin, dry skin or combination skin. This because some products are skin specific. If you have oily skin, for instance, find a face wash that is made to clean oily skin.
If you have perfect skin but tend to be very sensitive or allergic find a face wash that has low PH levels. In addition look for a product that is fragrance-free and no synthetic additives. Face washes with natural or organic ingredients are recommended
Some boys sweat more than others. If you are the sweaty type, pick a face wash that targets to unclog pores and balance the normal skin PH levels.
The Dos and don’ts of Using Face Wash for Boys
- Use warm water
When cleaning your face, avoid using water that is too cold or water that is too hot. Warm water works best.
- Pat dry
Boys often have the inclination to rub their face when washing and when drying their faces. This is the fastest route to having irritated or inflamed skin. It is advisable to instead pat dry your face for a fresher, moisturized feel.
- Avoid home-based products
Milk or curd are major homemade facewash favorites for many. However, the same products are the main culprits behind clogged pores, whiteheads, and blackheads.
- Soap is not it
Many subscribe to the school of thought that soap is the solution to all things hygiene. But the pimples on many a boys faces tells a completely different story. Soap is designed to thoroughly wipe off sweat and dirt from the body. Ordinary soap can be very harsh and irritating for sensitive facial skin.

The 22 Heroes of Democracy Still Need Your Help!
We're writing to update you on the “22 Hofstra Heroes for Democracy” who put themselves on the line - literally - on Monday, September 26th, to peacefully protest Jill's exclusion from the debates at Hofstra University.
Hillary Clinton said that most Americans wouldn’t know Gandhi from the guy who owns the garage down the street. Stein/Baraka supporters and the Green Party are WELL AWARE of Gandhi, and what the struggle for justice looks like.
Rosa Parks learned from - and was inspired by - Gandhi. Her words and actions helped change the course of history.
We think Rosa Parks would have been proud of our 22 Hofstra Heroes for Democracy. Don’t you?
These 22 brave activists decided that a Rosa Parks-style sit-in was the way to get the media’s spotlight on our message. And they were arrested... which was completely expected. (A revolution - even a nonviolent one - is a very scary prospect for the establishment.)
All of the heroes felt their arrests were absolutely worth it.
“I've participated in many acts of nonviolent resistance. And every time I have, they handcuff people for the entire time. They did it again and this time - they tore my ligaments. But in the end, I was so proud of all the women and men who stood up and refused to be silent. There's no turning back now. We will see open debates in my lifetime!” ~ Cheri Honkala
Hundreds of heroes were at the protest, sitting for their beliefs, but these 22 brave activists were singled out, arrested and charged with Class A misdemeanors …
We salute the 22 Hofstra Heroes for their courage, conviction and commitment.
Unfortunately though, the court is making all of them travel back to New York for their first arraignment - and it’s expensive. Many of them simply cannot afford it - coming from as far away as California, Texas, and Colorado.
Our campaign is trying to help them with their legal and travel expenses as much as we can.
And that’s why we’re writing to you today.
Will you donate right now to help them as well?
We still likely have about $22,000 more in legal and travel expenses.
Now is the time to put your financial support behind those who stood up - or sat down in this case - for you at Hofstra.
“I take personal responsibility for the future of our planet. Every young adult, every child - born and yet to be born, every plant and animal, and the earth itself all depend on my willingness to face any consequence as I fight for our future. I declare I will defend our right to live and prosper in a beautiful world and a just society.“ ~ YahNé Ndgo
So today, please join us in honoring these heroes with your heartfelt thanks and with your financial support.
By giving, you can be a hero for them, too.
As Jill and Ajamu often say, "We can create a new world. These goals - these imperatives - are not in our hearts, they're not in our dreams. They’re in our hands.”
We believe Mohandas Gandhi and Rosa Parks would applaud these words. Please contribute generously and let these words be heard over and over in these final election days.
Jill Stein for President
P.S. In another act of suppression at Hofstra, earlier in the day, Jill was escorted off the campus by campus security and police - even though she was invited into the debate site by numerous media outlets who had even given her press credentials. (ABC, CBS, MSNBC, Fox News).
We're not surprised. We're fomenting a nonviolent revolution. As always, that's a very scary prospect for the Establishment. And all the more reason why we need your donation today.
P.P.S. History anoints people as heroes. But their sacrifice often goes unappreciated by the people of the time. We will not make that mistake. We stand by these courageous and principled individuals. And we ask you to do the same. Be part of history and claim your own place in this movement. | [

Io from New Horizons (exposure time: 75 milliseconds)
A long-exposure image of Io taken on 26 February 2007 during New Horizons' Jupiter flyby. Sunlight on the dayside of Io has saturated the New Horizons LORRI camera's detector, causing the streaking across the photo. But the long exposure reveals lovely structures in the umbrella-shaped plume of the actively erupting volcano Tvashtar. Two or more other plumes are visible on the night side of Io. | [

One of the best ways to maximize all the natural light in your sunroom is by decorating with indoor plants. Aside from looking beautiful, houseplants have many health benefits, such as improving air quality, reducing stress, and supporting cognitive health, amongst many others.
However, you may think you’re out of luck if you don’t have a green thumb. Well, we’re happy to say there are many sunroom plants you can easily care for, even with the busiest of schedules or lack of gardening experience.
So let’s get into the eight best plants for your sunroom!
1. African Violet
African violets are excellent for four-season sunrooms. They grow better in an indoor garden than outside, as they don’t like fighting for water or soil nutrients.
They also grow best at room temperature. Thus, the African violet will thrive if you control your sunroom temperature year-round.
African violet care includes providing bright but indirect sunlight and a humid environment. However, refrain from misting these plants as they don’t like to have wet leaves. Instead, it’s best to water African violets from a saucer. Just ensure they don’t sit in the water for a prolonged period.
Because it loves bright light, ivy grows exceptionally well in sunrooms and patio enclosures. If ivy doesn’t get enough direct sunlight, the leaves will droop and be at risk of decay from pests. But all you need to do is keep it in a place with plenty of light – and a sunroom with floor-to-ceiling windows is a great option!
Additionally, ivy doesn’t require much watering. The topsoil should be dry to the touch before watering it again. Too much water will cause the roots to rot.
If you like the flowing feel of ivy, you can also incorporate string of pearls plants (Senecio rowleyanus) into your sunroom design. The strands of green pearls cascading down from a hanging plant are delightful. Unlike ivy, string of pearls plants like bright but indirect light. You also need to keep the soil moist, although not too wet. Watering every week or two is ideal.
3. Indoor Trees
If you have the space, indoor trees are a great addition to glass enclosures. Aside from requiring ample natural light and well-drained soil to prevent rotting, they are easy to care for. Simply mix the following in the pot for the best results:
- Potting soil
There are many varieties of indoor trees to choose from, so bear in mind that they all have different temperature, humidity, and watering requirements. Your local florist or gardener can help provide growing directions for the indoor tree you choose.
4. Flowering Plants
To add pops of color to your sunroom, grow flowering plants. Some beautiful examples include:
- Hibiscus Flower
- Passion Flower
While these are all good plants for your sunroom, each one may have slightly different requirements. For instance, hibiscus plants need plenty of sunlight throughout the day, or they will die. They also need a lot of water. The soil should always be a little damp.
On the other hand, begonias require acidic soil, so you need to use pH test strips to ensure the water is acidic enough for the plant. In addition, orchids thrive in high humidity, so many keep this plant in the bathroom. Therefore, it blooms well in humid three-season rooms.
If you want to know how to decorate a small sunroom on a budget, consider including low-light plants. As the name suggests, these plants don’t need constant sunlight. So while they will thrive in a well-lit room, they will also do well with minimal light exposure.
Some good examples of low-light plants are:
- African Milk Tree
- Boston Ferns
- Money Tree
- Peace Lily
- Spider Plant
- ZZ Plant
As with indoor trees and flowering plants, their requirements will vary because there are many low-light plants. However, most need well-draining soil.
6. Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is one of the most popular succulents because of its health benefits. Most known for its ability to treat skin injuries, from sunburns to open wounds, many also consume aloe vera gel because it contains the following:
- Amino acids
Keep your aloe vera plant in a bright, sunny spot. Without enough sunlight, it can go dormant and stop growing. You also need to water the plant about every two weeks heavily. Then, when the soil dries out, water it again.
In addition to aloe vera, another great succulent to include is Christmas Cactus. It, too, doesn’t require a frequent watering schedule. | [

Plus, Bike Everywhere Month proclamation
The City Council Monday was given an initial briefing on the approach and challenges expected in the upcoming budget planning cycle for the 2021-2022 general fund and the 2021-2027 Capital Investment Program (CIP), especially given the impacts from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and economic slowdown.
The initial workshop included a proposal for a temporary, one- to two-year flexibility in the city’s sales tax policy to allow up to $3 million in revenue to move from the CIP budget to the General Fund. This would aid in balancing the General Fund budget to avoid making drastic, short-term cuts in services. It will potentially result in deferment of maintenance and other programs in the CIP budget.
The budget team shared three budget scenarios based on the speed of economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic – rapid, moderate, or moderate-plus – resulting in a budget gap ranging from $12 million to $16 million in 2021-2022. For planning purposes, finance staff will use the least optimistic scenario for their current budget process but will adjust as more detailed information becomes available. The three scenarios assume recovery will take two to three years, depending on recovery speed, and all scenarios can be viewed in detail in the presentation materials. The team also reviewed all criteria and tools being used in the budget planning process.
Additional budget workshops and a series of public hearings will take place on the budget proposals in the coming months. Deliberation by the council will begin in October. A final adoption of the proposed budget approach is currently scheduled for December. This week’s discussion is available through video replay on Bellevue Television.
Bike Everywhere Month proclamation
The mayor and city council proclaimed June 2020 as Bike Everywhere Month in Bellevue to recognize and encourage the hundreds of thousands of riders in Washington state who bike for travel and recreation.
Biking provides health, economic and environmental benefits. The City of Bellevue added 10 miles of new bike lanes in 2019 and will add eight more miles of on- and off-street bikeways in 2020. The city also created a Healthy Streets pilot program recently to allow people to safely bike and walk while maintaining appropriate physical distance during COVID-19.
Note: Due to June 29 being the fifth Monday of the month, no council meeting will take place. Councilmembers will reconvene again on July 6. | [

Fujifilm is to release a mirrorless system camera in 2012, the company has confirmed.
President and chief executive Shigetaka Komori announced at a Tokyo Press conference that the device will be available in the spring, but did not reveal its technical specifications.
"The clear objective is the development of lenses, sensor and processor technology to achieve the highest image quality," the executive said.
Fuji was rumoured to be rolling out a range of new cameras this autumn. Reports speculated that its next models will feature a Micro Four Thirds sensor and new Fujinon lenses to bring them in line with the Olympus PEN and Panasonic G series.
Komori went on to say that the camera will have "low noise and will surpass the 35mm full-size sensor", but no further details were divulged,

Daytime Emmy nominated actress Melisa Crider, also known as Missy Crider, got her start in television in 1987 following a failed attempt at becoming a country music recording artist. Making her debut in the TV series pilot “Time Out for Dad” (1987), the winner of OMA Music Awards Association's Young Entertainer of the Year Award showed promising talent in the award winning miniseries “Lonesome Dove” (1989) and TV movies like “The Ernest Green Story” (1993), “Jane's House” (1994) and Showtime's “Girls in Prison” (1994) before picking up her nomination for the “CBS Schoolbreak Special” “Love in the Dark Ages” (1994), in which she starred as Jenny Oliver. She has since been cast in the hit ABC drama “Murder One” (1996, as Sharon Rooney), the Steven Spielberg short lived series “The Others” (2000, as Ellen 'Satori' Polaski) and Fox's award winning drama “24” (2007, as Rita). She has also appeared as a guest star in such popular shows as “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,” “CSI: Miami,” “House M.D.,” “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” and “Without a Trace.” On the big screen, Crider, who made her debut in Mitch Marcus' acclaimed “A Boy Called Hate” (1995), is probably best recognized for her performances in David Lynch's “Mulholland Dr.,” (2001) Gustavo Graef-Marino's “Instinct to Kill” (2001) and Martin Brest's “Gigli” (2003). Other film credits include “Powder” (1995), “Stand-ins” (1997), “The Sex Monster” (1999), “Until the Night” (2004), “Seclusion” (2006), Butterfly Dreaming” (2008) and “Blossom” (2008).
5' 6” Crider was engaged to veteran actor James Wood in 1997. They met when she portrayed his daughter in 1994's “Jane's House.”
Childhood and Family:
Melissa Anne Crider was born on June 13, 1974, in Columbia, South Carolina. She grew up in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Missy was first interested in singing and playing the violin before adding plays, musicals and dance to her endeavors. While in school, she was a bright student with a 3.98 grade point average.
In 1992, Missy relocated to Los Angeles to further pursue her acting career.
Before becoming an actress, Melisa Crider was known as a country music stage show singer and received the Young Entertainer of the Year Award from the OMA Music Awards Association in Branson, Missouri. She was on her way to Nashville to record an album, but her ambition of becoming a record artist was cut short because of a car accident.
Missy, who had worked on stage in musical theaters in Arkansas for many years, turned her focus to acting. She made her TV debut as Suzanne Kowalski in the TV series pilot for NBC, “Time Out for Dad” (1987). It was followed with roles in the made-for-TV film “The Incredible Ida Early” (also 1987) and the celebrated miniseries “Lonesome Dove” (1989), in which she portrayed the daughter of Anjelica Huston, Sally. Crider's performance brought her attention from Lorimar Productions, who subsequently signed her to a one year retention contract. After filming three more projects for TV, including starring roles in the BBC’s “Up to No Good” (1992, as Jennifer Cloverdale) and the Peabody Award winning “The Ernest Green Story” (1993, opposite Ossie Davis and Morris Chestnut), she moved to Los Angeles.
Crider was next cast as Lesley Ann Warren's tormented daughter, Jill, in the ABC dramatic film “A Mother's Revenge” (1993), opposite Bruce Davison and Shirley Knight, teamed up with James Woods and Anne Archer for the prestigious Hallmark Hall Of Fame's “Jane's House” (1994), adapted from a novel by Robert Kimmel Smith, starred as an aspiring singer named Aggie O'Hanlon in the John McNaughton’s “Girls in Prison” (1994), along with Anne Heche and Ione Skye, and costarred with Barbara Eden and Ted Marcoux in the thriller “Eyes of Terror” (1994). It was her starring role of Jenny Oliver in the “CBS Schoolbreak Special” “Love in the Dark Ages” (1994) that won Crider a Daytime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Performer in a Children's Special. The drama also starred Tom Everett Scott and Paul Walker.

UNICEF with WHO starts awareness campaign in northeast camp about COVID-19
Thanks to a generous contribution from Sweden.
Parallel to the rollout of COVID-19 vaccine, UNICEF, in partnership with the World Health Organization (WHO), has supported demand generation with a risk communication and community engagement campaign in Tal Alsamen displacement camp, northeast Syria, with thanks to a generous contribution from Sweden. The camp, located 30 kilometers north of Ar-Raqqa city, is currently home to 5,900 people who fled violence escalations in Tal Abyad, north Syria, in late 2019.
This campaign aimed at raising community awareness about the importance of COVID-19 vaccine, disseminating information about the availability of the second dose to priority groups who have taken the first, and encouraging others, who have not, to take the vaccine. As part of the campaign, UNICEF met with community leaders and volunteers, conducting tent-to-tent visits to spread awareness. Posters, flyers and awareness print material were also distributed across the camp. | [

An air-cooled Gallium Nitride (GaN)-based solid state power amplifier (SSPA) unit consists of two power amplifier modules, processor and filter boards, mechanical switches, fins and two fans, was designed in compliance with the military standards. Total heat load of SSPA-unit calculated as 196 W including solar radiation load. Although the total power dissipation is in the moderate range, employed GaN-based chip has a transistor level high heat fluxes of about 7300 W/cm(2). Thermal design comprises forming the preliminary mechanical structure of fans, fins, and mechanical interfaces in accordance with the design constraints. Module housing and thermal interface materials were determined by comparing numerical model and measurement results for optimum electrical and thermal performance. Results showed that copper and high-thermal-conductivity epoxy solutions have better thermal performance with more than an order of magnitude mean-time-between-failure improvement over the aluminum and indium foil for module housing and thermal interface material, respectively. | [

"It's still more than a decade away, but it's a reasonable expectation," said David Mackie, a space tourism expert at University College London. As with other activities that require expertise, some people, like Mackie, say they believe the country can't afford to lose this expertise. "Space tourism is our lifeline for the future," said Ben Young, a London-based space consultant. Space tourism is "only a tiny percentage of the total spending," Young said. "But it's a very big part of the whole thing. If you were to look at the whole space industry, it's about 80 billion pounds in the last year alone." And there are more people interested than ever.
"We're seeing more and more people getting involved," Mackie said. "They're coming in from all over the world, and they're looking for a little bit of a break from the normal, everyday life. In 2016, the International Space Station is expected to reach its 17th year in orbit. The new rover will be used to search for life beyond Earth in the solar system, it was said. The rover's size and the fact that it is designed to preserve evidence of past habitability make it ideal for the region, said Dr. Richard B. Leckie, chief executive officer of the Planetary Society. The mission's development was financed by a grant from the European Space Agency and was cleared by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration. In 2013, NASA announced plans to send a rover to Mars in 2023.
A robotic rover is a type of exploration vehicle, which means that they are designed to explore any area that they encounter The rover will be launched in 2018 and be sent to Mars in 2020. This was followed by a report by the UK's Space Research Association, which predicted that "space tourism could be a $1.5 trillion global industry by 2030." The report also predicted that the number of commercial space companies would increase from about 300 in 2008 to more than 2,300 by 2030. The launch of the first commercial satellite in history, Iridium, by SpaceX was considered a success story and inspired the launch of the first commercial satellite in history, Iridium, by SpaceX was considered a success story and inspired the launch of the first commercial satellite in history, Iridium. In 2008, the first commercial satellite launched by SpaceX was the Globalstar satellite.

Three-dimensional thermography offers a powerful technology to capture detailed information of surface temperature of objects and environments. It benefits a wide variety of applications including agricultural, industrial, medical, search and rescue, and building energy leakage detection, to name only a few examples. Nonetheless, current approaches seeking to establish extraction of geometric content, e.g., 3-D thermography, suffer from pre-processing related drawbacks. These include, complicated procedures for radiometric and metric calibration, low resolution images and low image quality and texture. Aiming for a viable framework for thermal 3-D processing, this thesis proposes a pipeline involving the geometric image calibration and subsequent enhancement and matching procedures aiming towards 3-D reconstruction of thermographic data. Focusing on applicable solution, the research introduces a novel approach for geometric calibration of such image data. Whereas existing approaches require expensive calibration targets and elaborate setups, we show that a low-cost solution can be obtained to calibrate the camera intrinsic parameters in a computational efficient manner and without compromising accuracy. For the purpose of enhancing image contrast, our image enhancement algorithm in thermal modality proves to achieve better than the conventional approach. Finally, focusing on feature extraction and correspondences, a comprehensive evaluation of the performance of popular feature detection and descriptor generating algorithms leads to deeper understanding on image matching and reconstructing leading to 3-D thermography modeling. | [

Elon Musk’s rocketry outfit SpaceX is hard at work this week preparing for its third attempt to land its all-original Falcon 9 rocket booster on a barge anchored at sea. The attempt will take place this Sunday, after a mission to send a Dragon cargo capsule on a supply run to the International Space Station (ISS), which is in desperate need of supplies after a Russian rocket failed to reach orbit earlier this year.
SpaceX has been trying to land the booster, the most expensive piece of the rocket, since January this year. That attempt saw the booster descend to the barge under control, but run out of fuel just before touchdown. The result was a gigantic explosion which resulted in the rocket being destroyed. Or, as SpaceX CEO Elon Musk termed it a “rapid, unscheduled disassembly.”
A second attempt in April this year saw the booster touch down on the barge but the tall space vehicle tilted and fell, resulting in another explosion that destroyed the rocket.
Sunday’s mission is the first resupply mission to the ISS since a Russian Progress spacecraft, which contained food, science experiments and other supplies, halted communication with mission control shortly after launch and began to spin out of control in April.
Yet NASA says there is no panic surrounding Sunday’s mission as even if it doesn’t go to plan, supplies won’t run out.
If SpaceX is successful in landing the booster and is able to consistently achieve this feat it will lead to drastic cost savings on future launches, totally reinventing the space industry. Right now every space launch system in the world throws away the rocket portion of launch vehicle, which happens to be the most expensive part.
This process is like throwing away a brand new Boeing 747 on each and every launch. If SpaceX can recover the rocket, and its pricey motors, on each launch it will be able to shave something like $100 million off each and every launch.Stay Connected | [

Physiotherapist Simon Halperin commented on the increased incidence of COVID-19 in Moscow.
According to him, this trend may be partly due to a larger number of tests conducted. He noted, however, that such data may reflect the actual increase in the number of cases.
"on the other hand, the growth of the epidemic is still going on. Accordingly, all the laws of development of infectious diseases, the epidemic will not stop until a significant number of people have been ill or are not developed so-called population immunity," said Halperin in the comments to REN TV.
Pandemic COVID-19 covered most of the countries of the world. According to who, the virus has infected more than 3.1 million people. Of these, about 218 thousand dead, a million were cured.
Only in Russia was 124054 case of infection COVID-19, 1222 patients have died, more than 15 thousand recovered. Moscow is in first place among regions on the number of infected – 62658 people.

Russian nanosatellite TNS-0 No. 2 can remain active in orbit until 2021, experts say
«The ballistics experts say that the current state of the atmosphere allows us to extend the expected service life of the nanosatellite TNS-0 No. 2 up to 2021. After that, it will burn in the dense layers of the atmosphere. It is planned to conduct additional experiments during this extra time to determine the extremities of service life of various instruments installed on the satellite, under the conditions of space,» the press service said.
The autonomous navigation system created in the RSS had been tested onboard the THC-0 No. 2. Its data allowed to direct with high accuracy the VHF antennas of the Mission Control Centre to communicate with the satellite, and it was also proved that the accuracy of the device ensures the independence of the control of the orbit of TNS-0 No 2 from foreign ground systems such as NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command). | [

Tom's eldest son Colin Hanks and his wife of nine months Samantha Bryant welcomed their first child on Tuesday.
Samantha gave birth to a girl named Olivia Jane.
A source close to the 33-year-old actor told People magazine: "The family is home and everyone's happy and healthy."
Colin and Samantha's new arrival could give Toy Story 3 star Tom the perfect excuse to dig out his most treasured toys, as he recently admitted he still loves playing with his kids' miniature cars and planes.
Tom said: "I play with toys all the time. I play with the little goofy things my kids still have like cars and planes and I hold them up and imagine the same stories I did when I was a kid.
"My own toys weren't collectibles - they went through hard use so any toy I had was eventually pounded out of existence or they broke. They went the best way any toys can - they were played with out of existence."

In the last two months, when a lockdown was in place in the city, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) floated four civil tenders for underground sections of the upcoming Phase 4 network.
Despite reduced strength of workers, the DMRC said construction of the Phase IV network had achieved a few landmarks as well.
“During these months, DMRC completed tunneling of 500 meters of one of the 2.8-km twin tunnels. It also completed casting of over 50% of tunnel segments in the casting yard. The first of the twin tunnels on this stretch is expected to be completed by September 2021,” a senior official said.
The official said due to the lockdown, the number of workers at construction sites had reduced from 4,000 to around 2,500.
“The Delhi Metro is currently engaged in construction of 65 kilometres of new lines across three priority corridors as part of its Phase 4 expansion. These corridors are expected to be completed by 2025,” the DMRC said.

Soil Health Tour with Nicole Masters in Malta July 10
Series of workshops across North-Central Montana will focus on soil health to increase drought resilience, species diversity, productivity, and profitability
June 30, 2021
Internationally recognized agroecologist, author and teacher Nicole Masters will facilitate five in-person soil health workshops across North-Central Montana this summer.
“In the midst of a drought, we’re all thinking, ‘What can we do to make our land and our ranches more resilient?” rancher and Musselshell Watershed Coalition coordinator Laura Nowlin said. “Anything we can do is worth considering, and we know that soil health is a critical part of that equation.”
The day-long, hands-on workshops will be held in Winnett, Malta, Glasgow and Circle, Montana starting June 28. Each...

Faced with cleaning up prior neglect and the poor decisions of the past, the Ocean Pines Board of Directors has to make the tough decision to abandon the idea of renovating the County Club.
Considering that solutions have been batted around for years as to the best course of action to take on the decaying building, it’s a smart move. The recently ill-fated attempt to patch the building together has made it apparent that to continue with the course of rehab would, in the long run, not only cost more, but also never provide a building that is truly functional.
The only real decision left is to decide is where the board can best accommodate the additional need for community meeting space. While adding space to a new country club may be expedient, it also may not turn out to be the best course of action. Parking is an issue, as is the addition of more traffic to the narrow, winding streets in the adjoining neighborhood.
Perhaps a better solution would be to add the additional square footage to the proposed police department expansion. Keeping the hub of community activity in that central location would seem more ideal.
The community right now has a board that seems willing to make some tough calls. Hopefully, it will continue to make decisions that benefit the community for the long term, rather than those that are politically expedient in the short-term. | [

Deep-subwavelength Nanometric Image Reconstruction using Fourier Domain Optical Normalization
Jing Qin, Richard M. Silver, Bryan M. Barnes, Hui Zhou, Ronald G. Dixson, Mark Alexander Henn
Quantitative optical measurements of deep sub-wavelength, three-dimensional, nanometric structures with sensitivity to sub-nanometer details address an ubiquitous measurement challenge. A Fourier domain normalization approach is used in the Fourier optical imaging code to simulate the full three-dimensional scattered light field of nominally 15 nm sized structures, accurately replicating the light field as a function of the focus position. Using the full three-dimensional light field, nanometer scale details such as a 2 nm thin conformal oxide and nanometer topography are rigorously fitted for features less than 1/30th of the wavelength in size. The densely packed structures are positioned nearly an order of magnitude closer than the conventional Rayleigh resolution limit and can be measured with sub-nanometer parametric uncertainties. This approach enables a practical measurement sensitivity to size variations of only a few atoms in size using a high throughput optical configuration with broad application in measuring nanometric structures and nanoelectronic devices.

We're only a dozen-plus games into the 2018-19 college basketball season, but we've already seen several huge programs fall by the wayside. ESPN analyst Dick Vitale had some choice words for one particular basketball powerhouse that is really struggling this season.
On Saturday night, Vitale went to Twitter and called out the UCLA Bruins after the 11-time national champions were badly beaten by Liberty in a 73-58 loss.
UCLA trailed by 12 at the first half and were outscored by seven in the second half.
The loss marked the Bruins' fourth loss in a row, as Vitale pointed out.
Since December 15, UCLA has lost at home to Belmont University, on the road to Cincinnati, at a neutral venue to No. 15 Ohio State, and most recently at home to Liberty.
With the loss to Liberty, the Bruins have fallen to 7-6 on the season, with three of those losses coming against ranked teams.
The Bruins started the season ranked No. 21 and went 4-0 before dropping back-to-back games against Michigan State and North Carolina.
Head coach Steve Alford is most certainly on the hot seat. A mid-season coaching change is a possibility. | [

Can Europe compete with Silicon Valley when it comes to smart young web start-ups? When so much of the venture capital money is still based in Palo Alto and Mountain View, it's hard to start a business in Shoreditch or Stuttgart which can take on the world. But in the last week I've met two - Huddle and Soundcloud - which seem to stand a chance, both by offering fairly simple utilities in the internet "cloud".
Huddle is a company based in south London providing office space to users all around the world. No, not a property company, because the offices used by Huddle's customers are in a web browser. The aim is to allow organisations large and small to have an online space, where staff and clients can share documents, calendars, even a virtual whiteboard. You sign up and are then presented with your first "workspace", described in the blurb as " a secure space that you can share with others and use to manage a project, team or client relationship." So then you can invite colleagues to join you in your online office, editing documents, scheduling meetings, and doing all those other tiresome but important tasks of the average office worker.
There is a free ad-supported service, but Huddle is really aiming at businesses which will pay between £10 and £125 a month for large amounts of online storage. Hold on a minute, though, isn't this tiny start-up lying in the middle of the road waiting to be crushed by the biggest name on the web? After all Google's suite of online applications - documents, spreadsheets and presentations - already fulfils a similar purpose, and Google Wave, if it is ever transformed into something vaguely usable, will take the online collaboration business to a whole new level. And they are both free.
Nevertheless, Huddle has managed to grow rapidly. Its commercial director Charlie Blake Thomas told me that its user base was doubling every four months, and the firm was expecting to be "extremely close" to breaking even in the first quarter of next year - though I think we've all learned to take such forecasts with a pinch of salt. Its customers range from the energy firm Centrica to local councils and government departments, so why are they opting to "huddle" when they could share Google docs for nothing? Mr Blake Thomas said his firm offered a more professional and stable service, citing as an example one local council:"They started by using Google Docs but once they'd got 70 or 80 people onboard it just didn't work for them, and they upgraded to Huddle." He also claimed that, unlike a number of Google services, Huddle was not subject to outages.
There's talk of a ground-breaking deal in the offing which will see a company which still has just 35 employees getting the chance to offer its products to thousands of potential customers. Working together in the cloud is a fashionable new trend with plenty of established American giants sniffing a new way to extract cash from customers - but there is just a possibility that a British minnow could steal the business from under their noses.
By contrast, sharing music online is now a pretty mature business - or is it? I discovered Soundcloud a while back when I was trying to find somewhere that would host audio files in the same way that YouTube hosts your video. Nobody else was really making it easy to upload music or other forms of audio and then share it in a simple way which anyone could access.
The likes of MySpace are useful for new bands attempting to promote themselves, Spotify and Napster offer online access to music for fans, but Soundcloud aims to be a simple utility for the music industry, allowing artists, labels, A&R executives to store tracks online which they and their fans can access anywhere.
"It's Flickr for audio" is how the co-founder Alex Ljung described it when I caught up with him last week, making the point that, like the photo-sharing service, it's aimed mainly at creators rather than consumers. So here are a couple of examples. This is a track by the band Them Crooked Vultures, which uses Soundcloud to distribute its music. The band also used MySpace to offer fans a preview of its new album, but Alex Ljung claims 20,000 fans listened on Soundcloud, compared to just 12,000 on MySpace.
And here is the interview I conducted with Alex, recorded on my phone and then uploaded to Soundcloud. Afterwards he explained that he'd been a sound designer in Stockholm when he and a friend Erik Whalforss came up with the idea for Soundcloud - and moved to Germany to make it happen. Now a team of 10 is running a business with over 350,000 customers, with offices in London as well as Berlin.
It is following the same "freemium" route as Huddle, with a limited free service, and then | [

State Probes Death of Wild Vultures at Disney Island
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) _ A state agency is investigating the deaths of 19 wild vultures at Walt Disney World’s Discovery Island during a trapping-and-removal operation for the unwanted predators.
Disney spokesman Charlie Ridgway acknowledged Friday that about 15 vultures died of heat exhaustion in a storage shed while awaiting transfer to a nearby wildlife refuge.
″We are cooperating fully in the investigation″ by the state Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission, Ridgway said. ″We had, and still have, a problem with the vultures. We did relocate a number of them and - purely accidentally - about 15 of the vultures died of heat exhaustion in the hot summer heat.″
Curator Charles L. Cook of Discovery Island received an emergency federal permit May 24 to relocate up to 100 of the aggressive scavenger birds that were bothering visitors and threatening rare birds and animals on the 11-acre sanctuary and tourist site.
A subsequent report filed by Cook said 149 vultures were captured, according to a story for the New York Times Regional Newspapers. Other Disney documents show 19 vultures died in the trapping operation, 18 were released and 112 were moved to Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge.
Ridgway said he didn’t have details of the operation, but the number of vultures specified in the federal permit was exceeded through a misunderstanding and there was no intent to harm any of the vultures.
Cook could not be reached for comment.
While common in Florida and other Southern states, the large, black vulture is protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Violations can bring up to six months in jail and a $5,000 fine for individuals and a $10,000 fine for corporations.
″They perform an extremely valuable function in cleansing the land of dead animals,″ said Phil Million, a spokesman for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The vultures have become an increasing problem at Discovery Island, where they are attracted by the food supply around the island and a nearby campground, Disney officials have said.
In letters to wildlife officials, Disney said the vultures have attacked Galapagos tortoises and brown pelicans, consumed large stocks of animal feed and even torn apart furniture at the park.
″Discovery Island is to these birds like Social Security in your senile human population... They never had it so good,″ veterinarian E.E. Schobert wrote in a letter that Disney filed with its request for state assistance.
Walt Disney World has acquired a reputation for innovative environmental and wildlife projects, including the training of monkeys for use by paraplegics. | [

Hydraulic Circuit Design | Interview Question and Answers
Hydraulic Circuit Design | Interview viva,oral Question and Answers
1. What are the three important things that are controlled in a hydraulic system?
In a hydraulic system, the pressure, direction and volume of flow are controlled. The pressure is controlled to control the force. Flow is controlled to control the velocity. Direction is controlled to obtain actuator motion in both directions.
2. What is the function of relief valve in a hydraulic system?
The function of a relief valve is to limit the system pressure to a specified maximum value by diverting the pump flow back to the tank.
3. What are the advantages of compound relief valve over direct acting relief valve?
(i) Compound relief valves are usually smaller than the simple relief valves for the same flow and pressure settings.
(ii) They also have a wider range of maximum pressure setting.
(iii) They can also be operated remotely by connecting a simple relief valve to the vent port.
4. What is the function of an unloading valve?
The unloading valve is useful to control the amount of flow at any given time in systems having more than one fixed delivery pump.
5. What is the function of a sequence valve?
When the operation of two cylinders is required to be performed in sequence, the sequence valve is used.
6. When is the pressure reducing valve used in a hydraulic system?
Pressure reducing valve is used to maintain reduced pressure in specified locations of hydraulic system.
7. Draw the symbols for a pressure relief valve and pressure reducing valve
8. Name one application of a counterbalance valve.
The counterbalance valve is used to maintain back pressure on a vertical cylinder to prevent it from falling due to gravity.
9. What is a check valve?
The check valve is a one way valve, which allows flow in one direction, on the other direction the flow is not permitted.
10. How does a pilot operated check valve differ from a simple check valve?
Pilot operated check valve is a two way valve. This type of check valve allows free flow in one direction; it allows flow in other direction also, when a pilot pressure is applied. But simple check valve always allows flow in only one direction.
11. When are three way valves used in a hydraulic circuit?
Three way valves are used to operate single acting cylinders and two three way valves are needed to operate a double acting cylinder.
12. What is meant by actuation of valve? List the various actuating devices of direction control valves.
Actuation is a method of moving valve element from one position to another. The various actuating devices are: Manually operated, mechanically operated, Solenoid operated and Pilot operated.
13. What is a solenoid and how does it work?
A solenoid is a electromagnetic coil. When it is energised, it creates a magnetic force that pulls the armature. The armature is connected to the spool of the direction control valve and the valve is actuated.
14. Give the hydraulic symbol for 3 position-4 way closed center solenoid operated direction control valve?
15. What is meant when a flow control valve is said to be ‘pressure compensated’?
The flow through the flow control valve varies as the square root of the pressure drop across it. So any change in pressure at the outlet and inlet changes the flow through the valve. Pressure compensated flow control adjusts automatically to pressure changes and maintains a constant pressure drop from inlet to outlet, thus provides constant flow.
16. What is the need for temperature compensation in flow control valves?
As the viscosity of oil varies with temperature, the oil becomes less viscous when temperature increases. As the less viscous fluid flow more readily through an orifice, the increase in temperature causes increase in flow for a valve setting. So temperature compensation is needed to offset the effect of such temperature variations.
17. Name the three ways of applying flow control valves?
The three ways of applying flow control valves are,
(i) Meter-in (ii) Meter-out (iii) Bleed-off.
18. Differentiate meter-in and meter-out controls.
- In meter-in type, the flow control valve is located in the pressure line leading to the work cylinder. This type is used when load characteristics are constant and positive.
- In meter-out type, the flow control valve is installed in the return side of the cylinder. This type is used in machine tools like drills and mills in which the tool is dragged suddenly.
19. What is a flow divider and name the different types.
Flow divider is a flow control valve and is used to divide the fluid flow from a single source into two or more streams of equal flow.
There are two types of flow dividers:
1. Valve type
2. Motor type

LAWRENCE — The U.S. House last week passed a bipartisan bill aiming to allow automakers and tech companies to test as many as 100,000 autonomous vehicles annually.
While its prospects are uncertain in the Senate, the bill is a notable development in the world of autonomous vehicles, says a University of Kansas researcher who studies transportation policy, including issues surrounding driverless vehicles.
"It is a surprise in the sense that Congress is so divisive and partisan right now amid an even more hostile political climate. We have a Congress that has made little progress advancing high-profile legislation, and yet there was near unanimous agreement across the aisle for this bill," said Bradley Lane, assistant professor in the KU School of Public Affairs & Administration.
Lane can discuss developments surrounding the bill and how governments will grapple with policies surrounding regulation of autonomous vehicles. He is currently working on a study of the sustainability effects of autonomous vehicle technology and a pilot study with a colleague at the University of Nevada on connected and autonomous vehicles. He can discuss safety and security regulation policies and other issues related to driverless vehicles.
His broad research profile focuses on sustainability, travel behavior, policy and planning issues in urban transportation. He has authored or co-authored studies on government promotion of electric vehicles, how gasoline prices influence public transit and purchasing trends of plug-in electric vehicles, among other topics.
Q: What are key things to watch as the House bill potentially moves forward?
Lane: To me, the key tension in the bill – and the thing to watch for – will be this notion of the role of safety in legislation and regulation of autonomous vehicles going forward. The bill exempts a fairly significant number of vehicles – up to 100,000 per year for each automaker within three years – from existing safety features.
It appears the intent of the bill is to recognize that the mechanics of vehicle safety for autonomous vehicles are simply different and more complex than those for conventional vehicles. It also seeks to give automakers the space needed to develop the safety features of a technology that, for all its public attention, is still quite a way from mass consumer availability.
Fully autonomous vehicles are currently illegal on public roads. One of the ultimate purposes of autonomous vehicles is to improve vehicle safety. Road deaths, after years of decline, are rising again, and the key culprit appears to be human error. It appears this legislation is trying to facilitate the bridging of that gap between the present and the future.
Q: What issues could still be up in the air?
Lane: Something that is unclear to me is the definition of self-driving cars being used. News coverage appears to focus on fully autonomous vehicles, but there are many layers – five, according to most in the transportation industry – of vehicle automation. It is unclear to me how this bill and existing regulation interacts with the reality of the different stages of vehicle automation.
Lastly, it's also important to keep in mind this is just the House bill. The Senate has a long history of reigning in legislation coming out of the House, in any policy area. It will be interesting to see what changes are made before this becomes law. | [

With 2021 done and dusted, we’d thought we would look back at some of the emerging healthcare trends that will follow us into 2022. As Omicron cases surge, it’s clear that COVID-19 isn’t going away just yet. If anything, we can expect more of the unexpected in 2022.
Here are a few trends that we expect to follow us into the new year:
Shifting care from hospitals
Hospitals are no longer the epicenter for patient care. Both physician groups and ambulatory surgery centers have seen an increase in the number of procedures taking place.
Shifting care to physician groups
Less than a third of the 2.4 billion procedure claims tracked by Definitive Healthcare through the end of November 2021 came from a hospital facility, down from 36.7% in 2016. Meanwhile, procedure claims for physician groups accounted for 42.1% of claims in 2016 and increased to 44.6% of claims in 2021.
COVID-19 doesn’t appear to be entirely to blame for this shift, as physicians group visit volume – in other words, physicians treating patients at non-hospital locations – has been on a slow uptick since before the pandemic hit.
Diagnosis and procedure claims by facility type from 2016-2021
Fig 1. Data from Definitive Healthcare’s ClaimsMx product. Data represents the change in the share of the total diagnosis and procedure claims by facility type for physicians groups and hospitals between 2016-2021. Commercial claims data is sourced from multiple medical claims clearinghouses in the United States. Data is updated monthly; accessed January 2022.
Shifting care to ambulatory surgical centers
We’re also seeing procedure volume at ambulatory surgical centers grow quickly.
By November 2021, 14.6 million patients had a procedure at an ambulatory surgery center this year. While volume dropped due to the pandemic, ambulatory surgery centers regained nearly 94% of patient volume in 2021 compared to 2019.
Pre-pandemic, we saw the procedure volumes at ambulatory surgical centers grow faster than at hospitals.
Between 2016 and 2019, the number of patients that had a procedure at an ambulatory surgical center increased by 16%. Meanwhile, patients who had a hospital procedure increased by only about 6%.
Since ambulatory surgical centers offer patients high-quality care at lower costs, they are an attractive alternative for patients requiring outpatient care. We expect to see volume increase at ambulatory surgical centers in 2022.
Remote patient monitoring continues to grow
While telehealth’s explosive growth dominated the conversation at the start of the pandemic, remote patient monitoring experienced its own triple-digit explosive growth in 2020.
What is remote patient monitoring?
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) is a newer method of care delivery that leverages technology to monitor and gather clinical data on patients outside of a traditional clinical care setting.
RPM typically uses digital technology to capture physiologic healthcare data from patients and electronically transmits it to healthcare providers for assessment. Some common RPM devices include blood pressure monitors, blood glucose monitors and weight monitors.
Remote patient monitoring setup increased nearly 40% compared to 2020
CMS outlines the four codes below as the primary codes to bill for remote patient monitoring services.
According to our ClaimsMx data, the procedure volume for all codes increased compared to 2020. The initial setup and onboarding of a patient to an RPM device (CPT 99453) increased nearly 40% compared to 2020 and nearly 572% compared to 2019.
Unlike telehealth, which has seen adoption plateau, it appears remote patient monitoring is continuing to gain in popularity, and there are still many opportunities for its use in the management of chronic conditions.
Remote patient monitoring procedure volume 2020-2021
|2020 Procedure Volume
|2021 Procedure Volume
|Remote monitoring of physiologic parameter(s) (eg, weight, blood pressure, pulse oximetry, respiratory flow rate), initial; set-up and patient education on use of equipment
|Remote monitoring of physiologic parameter(s) (eg, weight, blood pressure, pulse oximetry, respiratory flow rate), initial; device(s) supply with daily recording(s) or programmed alert(s) transmission, each 30 days
|Remote physiologic monitoring treatment management services, 20 minutes or more of clinical staff/physician/other qualified healthcare professional time in a calendar month requiring interactive communication with the patient/caregiver during the month
|Remote physiologic monitoring treatment management services, clinical staff/physician/other qualified health care professional time in a calendar month requiring interactive communication with the patient/caregiver during the month; each additional 20 minutes (list separately in addition to code for primary procedure)

Did you know that raw cannabis is non-psychoactive?
Cannabis only becomes psychoactive when two things happen. First, when the plant material or flowers/buds, dries and ages. Second, when the cannabis is heated. More psychoactive compounds are created by heating the plant than via ageing. In order to fully activate the Cannabinoids and maximise the potential of Cannabis, you must first go through a process called decarboxylation.
The word “decarboxylation” may seem intimidating at first glance, but in reality, the process by which you eliminate a carboxylic acid group from an organic compound is one that many Cannabis users undertake on a daily basis. In fact, every time you smoke a joint, bong or hit the button on your vaporizer, you’re effectively decarboxylating cannabis. It’s the critical step to unearthing the psychoactive effects within cannabis, and without it, there are no cannabinoid acids being produced, and thus, no high.
All cannabinoids contained within the trichomes of raw cannabis flowers have an extra carboxyl ring or group (COOH) attached to their chain. For example, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) is synthesized in prevalence within the trichome heads of freshly harvested cannabis flowers. In most regulated markets, cannabis distributed in dispensaries contains labels detailing the product’s cannabinoid contents. THCA, in many cases, prevails as the highest cannabinoid present in items that have not been decarboxylated (e.g., cannabis flowers and concentrates).
If you want a high, you need to decarb first. However, there are some benefits to leaving your cannabis raw. Keep in mind that “raw” does not mean dried and cured. When you dry and cure your cannabis, a little decarboxylation happens as the herb ages.
Raw, uncured cannabis has a variety of health benefits. Cannabinoid acids are potent anti-inflammatories. The herb is also packed full of vitamins and nutrients found in other healthy greens.
To use the Cannabis raw, you’ll need to use freshly picked buds or fan leaves. You can also store raw cannabis in the refrigerator for a day or two like you would any other leafy green herb. Though, be mindful of mould and wilting. Densely packed cannabis flowers can become moldy quite quickly when they’re exposed to moisture. You really want to use them as quickly as possible. They also begin to lose potency and denature the longer they sit.
Many medical cannabis patients have success by simply drinking raw cannabis juices or smoothies.
THCA has a number of known benefits when consumed, including having anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective qualities. But THCA is not intoxicating, and must be converted into THC through decarboxylation before any effects can be felt.
Cannabis begins to decarboxylate at around 105 degrees Celcius. For the optimal oven method, you should preheat to 105–118 degrees, and bake the ground-up flower for about 30-45 minutes, depending on your preferences and the cannabis being utilized. It’s recommended that you grind up your cannabis finely before spreading it evenly upon a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Kief can also be decarboxylated with the oven method, but in half the time that it would take flower.
The THCA in cannabis begins to decarboxylate at approximately 105 degrees Celcius after around 30-45 minutes of exposure. Full decarboxylation may require more time to occur. Many people choose to decarboxylate their cannabis at slightly lower temperatures for a much longer period of time in attempts to preserve terpenes. Many mono and sesquiterpenes are volatile and will evaporate at higher temperatures, leaving potentially undesirable flavors and aromas behind. The integrity of both cannabinoids and terpenoids are compromised by using temperatures that exceed 148 degrees C, which is why temperatures in the low 100’s are recommended.
Heat and time can also cause other forms of cannabinoid degradation to occur. For example, CBN (cannabinol) is formed through the degradation and oxidization of THC, a process that can occur alongside decarboxylation. CBN accounts for a much more sedative and less directly psychoactive experience.
It’s important to note that a household oven doesn’t always match the exact temperature that it’s dialed to, thus it’s essential to constantly check the temperature and the oven itself throughout the process. Once your decarboxylated cannabis is dry and brown in colour, let it cool down and pulse it within a food grinder. From here, you can start thinking about binding your decarboxylated cannabis with the fats in certain oils or alcohol.

A Monumental Matriarch
The remarkable journey of an Albatross called Wisdom
Good news is soaring across the world’s headlines today. Wisdom, the albatross, and her mate, Akeakami, just hatched another chick.
This is amazing for so many reasons. Wisdom is around 70 years old, which makes her the oldest-known wild bird. Over her life, she’s raised more than 30 hatchlings and in the process has become, as one researcher so eloquently stated, “a world-renowned symbol of hope for all species that depend upon the health of the ocean to survive.”
Fluffballs of Feathers are no easy task
It’s hard work raising an albatross chick. It takes many months, and a lot of squid, crustaceans, and flying fish. Because it’s such an exhaustion, albatross couples are very close. They spend years courting, even showing off their moves in “dance parties.” Then once they’re sure they’ve found the one, they mate for life.
Akeakami — which is the Hawaiian word for lover of wisdom — is not actually Wisdom’s first love. Because of her longevity, she’s outlived at least one other. But she and Akeakami have been deeply intertwined since at least 2010, and maybe more like 2006. While most couples take a year off between parenting sessions, these two lay an egg almost every year. In 2011 they even survived a tsunami together.
Another reason Wisdom is remarkable is her perseverance. She nests on the remote Midway Atoll in the North Pacific. It’s easy to imagine this refuge as a pristine, lonesome hideaway, but the sad truth is that hundreds of tons of plastic wash ashore here every decade. The birds mistake it for food. They feed it to their chicks. For many, a belly full of plastic leaves too little room for nutrients. Add in to that, a high rate of deaths from longline and other fishing operations, and it’s easy to see why Wisdom and her new chick are such beacons of hope.
“The odds are stacked against them so much, whenever it happens it’s always a cause for celebration,” Sean Dooley, of BirdLIfe Australia, told the Guardian.
A Life Aloft
Every year Wisdom flies thousands of miles over open oceans. Her wings are more than six feet across, and she is so masterful at soaring, she barely ever flaps them. She has probably flown more than 3 million miles, far enough to go to the moon and back six times.
Imagine what she’s seen. Sunrises sparkling yellow on the horizon. Stars, unhindered by the glow of a light bulb, for so many thousands of miles. The force of a gray squall of rain beaten sideways by the wind. Tall rolling seas giving way to iceberg mosaics. Clear waters interrupted by the breach of a great whale, whose silhouette slowly descends into the blue.
When Wisdom was born, plastics weren’t yet a thing. There were 5 billion fewer people in the world, and three times as many fish. Sooty, lumbering cargo ships would have been a seldom sight. Longliners — whose crews set out 28-mile-long ropes, studded with thousands of hooks, decorated with bait that is all too tempting to birds — were only vaguely being explored. Even the very composition of the atmosphere, and feeling of the sky was different.
So when biologist Chandler Robbins first banded her leg on Midway Atoll in 1956, he couldn’t have known about the dangers she’d have to navigate during her life. But the young researcher did always hope that they’d meet again. Perhaps if they did, she could help him understand more about Laysan albatrosses, and how to better protect them.
Though Wisdom did come back to the island year after year, Robbins’ research had taken him elsewhere. It wasn’t until 2002 that he finally returned to find her again. It must have been quite a sight for the researcher, who had now devoted his entire life to birds and their protection. After all, as far as we know, Laysan albatrosses usually only live 40 years, and by 2002 Wisdom would have been well into her 50s.
Robbins himself lived to an outstanding age of 98, pursuing his love of birds long after his official retirement. He died in March, 2017, not long after the then 66-year old Wisdom successfully hatched another chick.
I’ll send out more of the week’s nature news, along with news from the homefront in a day or two. Hope everyone is enjoing a beautiful March. Keep up the good, and as always, | [

You may have heard Rick Adelman’s rant about the Houston schedule so far this season. The coach was peeved that the Rockets played eight games in 13 days, all in the form of back-to-back sets.
To that, we should all get on the phone and call Adelman a “WAAAA- mbulance.”
The Mavericks, remember, played eight games in 12 days, ending with a back-to-back against Memphis and Atlanta, the only time this season they’ve lost two in a row.
Another Rick, Carlisle, brought up a great point at shootaround this morning and it’s something that Adelman should take to heart.
“At some point, the schedule is going to come around to our side,” he said. “If it’s really tough right now, then it should be a little softer later on.”
The schedule is the same for everybody. After 82 games, add up your wins and if you don’t make the playoffs, then whine about your lack of talent, not a brutal schedule. | [

The Federal Reserve Bank of the US meeting this week,
will highlight important price changes in interest rates.
10 Year Yield's TNX as shown

in advance of this important policy meeting by the Fed.
Analysis shows that a break of very important chart support at 255.4 %,
would immediately target an...
TNX 10 Year Long Term Interest Rates topped in early Dec.2018, near 3.25 %,
when the majority thought the 10 year yield could reach back to 4 % this year.
Bond Trader's saw something dark on the horizon that forced the Fed's hand,
in Jan.2019, with the Fed' change to now "patient" on further rate increase this year.
They had planned two more.25 % rate increases...
It appears the bear market in rates may have bottomed, but I'm not seeing a continued move higher until after a retracement. Looks to me rates will once again decline, but not below the all time lows, before heading much higher over the coming years.
37 year treasury bull run broken? I think so.
200 MA on MONTHLY resistance for now on 10 year rates.
Expect some consolidation or pull-back,
then China could continue it's dumping of US treasuries to drive rates up.
It is my opinion that bonds are going to be sold off in the coming month as countries race to dump the US treasuries that they hold. The stock market is negatively effected when the bond yields increase. When the 10 year bond yield reaches 3.25% and beyond we are at risk of a massive bond sell off. This sell off in bonds will cripple the stock market and a plunge... | [

Leura is an enchanting village located in the Blue Mountains region of New South Wales, Australia just outside Sydney. With its Edwardian storefronts and 19th century cottages, Leura sits framed upon a background of stunning natural wonders: sandstone escarpment, dense eucalyptus forests and rugged terrain. Leura is now as popular for visitors to the Blue Mountains as Katoomba itself. The area boasts many gardens which are privately owned yet open at selected times of the year to the public. Leura Garden Festival and Leura Village Fair are popular events held in October each year. We stopped in Leura on the tour for about half an hour for a bathroom break and a snack. We decided on the charming Wayzgoose café, a little pastry shop apparently famous for their “flowerpot scone”. They have the usual assortment of herbal teas but also really good hot chocolate. | [

Whether you tread the path of love or the path of meditation, ‘awareness’ or ‘consciousness’ plays a very significant role in the journey towards God, though unique characteristics manifest in either case. Visibly, in the path of love, consciousness appears to look like unconsciousness and in the path of meditation, unconsciousness appears to be like consciousness. The seeker on the path of love is overflowing with so much joy and exuberance on the surface that people around him are deceived by his tranced state. They suspect him to be unconscious, under the influence of some kind of intoxication that has made him lose control over his senses, unable to recognize the brightness of the lamp of awareness which is constantly burning within him just as in the case of Meera, in the case of Chaitnya or in the case of RamKrishna Paramhansa who were a pilgrim in the path of love. The tranced state misleads people who misinterpret elation as unconsciousness. The actual fact is that what the eye perceived and interpreted as unconsciousness was absolute profound consciousness for Meera, RamKrishna and Chaitanya. Unconscious outwardly but fully conscious and awake within.
On the path of meditation too a similar phenomena takes place when both consciousness and unconsciousness become one and the same. The difference being in the perception, as seen in the life of Mahavira and Buddha who appeared to be completely conscious and alert on the surface but within were immersed in deep ecstasy and the ultimate peak of divine bliss. Unshaken, unwavering, calm, composed and serene outside; intoxicated, submerged and drenched in the overflowing stream of bliss and ecstasy within.
Intoxicated with bliss and ecstasy outside, conscious and awake within on the path of love. Conscious and awake outside, intoxicated with bliss and ecstasy within on the path of meditation.
Whichever path you choose, path of love or the path of meditation, consciousness and unconsciousness go hand in hand. The final moment of consciousness is similar to the final moment of unconsciousness. The experience in the end is ultimately the same. The moment the answer to the question ‘who am I’ is revealed, the ‘I’ dissolves or in other words when the ‘I’ drops, the true Self is revealed. When we become empty, when we become nothing, that very moment, in that absolute nothingness we become whole. And when we become whole we are empty. Eventually, at that peak all the differences resolve, all duality drops and all the conflicts comes to an end. Awareness then is no longer awareness and unconsciousness is no longer unconsciousness, both become one. And the supreme transcendental phenomena comes into existence which we call nirvana, moksha or God-realization! | [

Latvia: Legislative amendments aiming to speed up resolution of industrial property related disputes enter into force.
An industrial property (IP) related legislation package including a new Law on Industrial Property Institutions and Procedures is in force in Latvia as of 1 January 2016. The new package is a result of official debates and legislative procedures lasting nearly six years.
The main aim of the package is to speed up resolution of industrial property related disputes. In particular, the mandatory out-of-court procedure so far applicable to these could last 2-3 years and was subject to further appeal in an administrative court.
The current rules substantively strengthen the capacity of the body (Industrial Property Board of Appeal) responsible for out-of-court dispute resolution. In particular, its members to be selected during forthcoming months will be permanent quasi-judges dealing with these disputes only.
Additionally, the procedure at the Board will be based on the principles of civil proceedings, thus changing from the previously applicable administrative procedure. The change of procedure involves the need for a more active role from the parties as the Board will no longer have a duty to gather evidence and establish facts on its own initiative. The outcome of the proceedings will depend only on the parties and their input into providing sufficient evidence to support their position. Parties who are not satisfied with the result will be entitled to ask the court to retry the case under its civil procedure.
Moreover, the new rules allow skipping oral proceedings at the Board in appropriate cases. This could shorten the process by having written proceedings only.
The official duties on filing an appeal or opposition to the Board are not changed substantively. In particular, the duty for filing an appeal is EUR 150, and for an opposition – EUR 180.

Coming into the 2011 season, and with the addition of Russell Wilson at quarterback, Wisconsin was expected to romp and roll to one of the two spots in the first-ever Big Ten title game. Back-to-back last-second/minute losses, plus the unexpected unbeaten start to conference play of a team currently embroiled in scandal, left the Badgers looking at a deep hole, however.
With two games left? Hello UW being a co-pilot in the divisional race.
A combination of three developments today — their romp over Minnesota, Penn State’s loss to Nebraska and Ohio State’s overtime loss to Purdue — means the 4-2 Badgers are just one game behind the 5-1 Nittany Lions in the Big Ten Leaders division. It also means UW is now in control of their own divisional destiny: win the last two games, and they will represent their division in the inaugural conference title game the first Saturday in December. Of course, the same can be said for Penn State: win out and they are division champ.
The reason for the co-riders in the driver’s seat is, obviously, the fact that the two teams will square off in the season finale in Madison. If both teams win this coming weekend — PSU plays at Ohio State, UW at Illinois — or even if Penn State stumbles against Ohio State, it will be a winner-take-all affair Nov. 26. The Badgers will be officially eliminated if they suffer another loss.
The Buckeyes are mathematically alive but just barely; OSU would need to win their last two games — Penn State, Michigan — and hope Penn State loses out and Wisconsin loses next week. If such a scenario were to play out, it would result in a three-way tie at 5-3. Ohio State, because they would have beaten both those teams head-to-head, would win the first Big Ten tiebreaker: “The records of the three tied teams will be compared against each other“.
On the other side of the Big Ten ledger, Michigan State has all but wrapped up the Legends division spot in the title game. With their win over Iowa, all the Spartans, 5-1 in conference play, have to do is beat 0-6 Indiana at home and 2-4 Northwestern on the road to clinch regardless of what any other school does.
If Sparty loses out? All hell breaks loose. Either Michigan or Nebraska — they play next weekend — could take the division by winning out. There’s also…
(Warning: head explosion zone ahead!)
…the possibility of a three-way tie in the Legends: Michigan State loses out; Michigan/Nebraska winner loses their last game; and Iowa wins out. With an Iowa/Michigan/Michigan State three-way tie, and like with the Ohio State scenario noted above, the Spartans would claim the first tiebreaker as they are currently 2-0 against the Hawkeyes and Wolverines.
And then there’s the whopper: if our math/understanding of the tiebreaker process is correct, a three-way tie involving Iowa/Michigan State/Nebraska would get down to the third tiebreaker — The records of the three teams will be compared against the next highest placed teams in their division in order of finish (4, 5, and 6). The fourth-place team would likely be Michigan; all three teams have or will have beaten the Wolverines. The fifth-place team? Northwestern; Iowa would be the only one of the three that would’ve beaten Northwestern — remember, this is assuming Sparty loses out — meaning the Hawkeyes would be playing for the Big Ten title come December. | [

Traffic jam on Mumbai-Pune Expressway as trailer topples at Khandalapune Updated: Jul 13, 2017 12:36 IST
The Mumbai-Pune Expressway saw heavy traffic congestions after a trailer toppled near Khandala on Thursday morning.
According to the police, the trailer was coming towards Mumbai from Pune. All of a sudden, the driver lost its control and hit the railings along the road. The vehicle then went off the highway and toppled into a pit.
“We had to use a crane to pull the vehicle from the pit. That operation affected the traffic flow on the highway for nearly two hours. The situation was normal after 9 am,” said a police officer.
No one suffered any injuries in the accident.

Allergies that are linked to things like dust and pollen often inflame the inside of the nose. This is a common condition that is known as allergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis happens when the immune system believes particles are harmful and therefore produces mucus designed to rid the body of what the immune system believes to be harmful allergens.
Several allergies are linked to allergic rhinitis and include:
Any allergy where the nose is seen to be either blocked or runny is known to be allergic rhinitis.
ALLERGIC RHINITIS SYMPTOMS
Allergic rhinitis causes symptoms that are very similar to the common cold. These symptoms include:
Some allergic rhinitis conditions are seen to be seasonal such as hay fever while others are linked to continued contact to the irritant that the patient is allergic to such as pet hair or house dust.
Allergic rhinitis is often something that begins in childhood and can be something that the child grows out of over time. Not all allergic rhinitis eases with time however and there are some cases where adults begin to suffer for no apparent reason.
HOW DO YOU TREAT ALLERGIC RHINITIS?
Treating the symptoms of allergic rhinitis is generally an easy task that most patients are able to handle at home. Treatments you can do at home to help with your allergic rhinitis include:
In most cases these treatments will help to ease the symptoms of allergic rhinitis but do not treat the actual cause.
HOW TO AVOID ALLERGIC RHINITIS
There is no known cure for allergic rhinitis but there are things that you can to help prevent it from happening. The first step is to find out what it is that causes your particular allergic rhinitis and then look to ways you can avoid these potential allergens. This includes taking actions such as:
If you have worries concerning your allergic rhinitis you can walk into any one of our clinics situated in the Houston Metropolitan area. No appointment is necessary. Our experienced healthcare providers can administer professional treatment to help you keep your allergy symptoms under control.

Commercial vacuums or contractors with only carpet drying equipment can not actually prevent water from wicking up wall surfaces, underneath baseboards as well as molding or in to sill plates. Water will definitely seep through floor coverings into subfloors, eventually causing deterioration to rooms beneath. If inside building moisture is not managed, undamaged items safe from the original flood damage could be wrecked as a result of taking in moisture from the air. Frameworks not dried out promptly enough or effectively will become a food source for mold, later causing a need for even more professional mould removal services.

Water is the single most long-term destructive substance in the indoor environment. Excess moisture or flooding can cause structures and personal property to rapidly deteriorate. The problem becomes more serious when the water is unsanitary or clean-up services are delayed.
If your home or business has had water damage or moisture issues, potentially dangerous mold growth can become a big problem. Mold can begin to grow within 12-24 hours and become visible within 72 hours. If you can see mold growing, the top priority is to remove and safely dispose of it..

When your home or business has experienced the unthinkable, you need a full-spectrum, start-to-finish disaster reconstruction and restoration service you can trust in Tulsa.
Water damage is one of the most common reasons people make claims on their home insurance. Burst pipes, leaky appliances and flooded basements often lead people to discover the details of their home insurance policies.
Effects Of Water Damage
Water damage is the stuff of bad dreams for most property owners. Water damage can be caused by a variety of factors, many of which can not be eliminated. Water can damage everything in a home, from the walls to the carpet, and may costs thousands to do the needed repairs. But what are the results of water damage on a property? The appearance of mold is the most common effect, calling for professional mold removal and flood cleanup companies. Mold is part of mother nature’s way to assist in the process of decomposition, but it is additionally highly damaging to property. Mold develops very quickly, emerging within one to two days after exposure to water. It can form anywhere, from your children’s toys to your bathroom tiles. Mold will start to affect anything it comes into contact with, including the health of individuals living in that property. For this reason, it must be dealt with right away. Black water contamination is one more probable danger that needs to be taken care of.
This occurs when water from unsanitary sources, that may include animal and human waste, get into the property. River and lake water is considered as black water, and contamination can cause significant health problems. While it is possible, with great difficulty, to recover from this type of contamination, it will likely often need full replacement of all structures and all furniture. Furthermore, inhabitants of the property must be given vaccinations because of possible contamination with tetanus bacteria and other diseases. When basement water floods a building, it often contains black water. The next problem has to do with damaged gas and electric lines and appliances. Anything that might cause an explosion or electrocution must be switched off and rewired. Following water damage, most people won’t be able to have power to their property for some period of time. Unfortunately, damage to appliances is quite easily done, even with just a little bit of basement water, and usually leads to these having to be replaced. Lastly, there are health concerns to make as well. Indeed, this is why it is so essential to immediately call in a restoration specialist. Mold is prevalent in water damaged homes and affects the airways, causing persons to suffer from asthma and allergy attacks. This is particularly hazardous for individuals with a poor immune system, the elderly, and children. Without a doubt, even persons in good health are at risk. Black water contamination, on the other hand, can lead to cholera, dysentery, and other significant and perhaps lethal illnesses. And finally, the emotional problems triggered by the stress of experiencing water damage must also be taken into account. Frequently, homes end up condemned, meaning people will essentially lose the things that they have loved.
Insurance Companies: Water Damage Demands They Deal With
Water damages are one of the more typical reasons for property owners to make an insurance claim. The destruction can be caused by something very small, like a small roof leak, or something substantial, like a full flood. While the size of the damage definitely matters, it is more important to find the water’s source. This is because not all sources of water damage are covered by insurance policies. Primarily after the insurance company has determined where the damage came from, will they consent to pay out for | [

WALKING ON SACRED LANDS
It’s the second day of the Walk for a New Spring and we are in Northfield, Massachusetts. Today we walked more than 12 miles and yesterday we walked just three miles. Yesterday I felt nothing after walking; today my feet are stiff and a bit sore.
Yesterday in Leveret, we walked from the New England Peace Pagoda (the home of the Buddhist order Nipponzan Myohoji) to the Congregational Church in time for their Sunday morning service. The minister shaped the worship service around the walk and after it was over about 50 local people gathered across the street in the town hall for a potluck lunch to send the walk off with a big cheer.
In the early afternoon we were back at the Peace Pagoda where we watched a fascinating documentary about Native American history in this part of New England. At Turner Falls, which we passed by, white settlers slaughtered Indian refugees in the mid 1600’s as war broke out over control of the land. In 2007 the town of Turner Falls, named after the military officer in charge of the massacre of the Indian refugees, asked Native American elders to come hold a healing ceremony with them. A nice gesture but I couldn’t help but wonder if the town was truly serious about reconciliation they might have considered changing their name.
One of the truly amazing stories in the documentary were the significant discovery of large rock mounds throughout the state that were found to be set up in perfect coordination with the sight-line of the rising sun on the solstice and the setting sun on the equinox. Carbon dating around fire pits at one of the mounds was found to be more than 4,000 years old. Some of the rocks and boulders at several of the sites were not indigenous to that particular part of the state and thus had obviously been moved there. Native people have had difficulty getting the white establishment to see the value of preserving these sacred places.
As we walked along near some of these ancient areas I couldn’t help but think how in our “modern high-tech” world, we are so disconnected from the Earth that we know virtually nothing about the history and profound spiritual nature of our surroundings. Instead we live in ignorant bliss watching our cable TV, gorging on info-tainment and junk food, the whole time believing we are the smartest and “greatest” culture in the world. It’s a mind blower to me.
Tomorrow we head north into Vermont, to Brattleboro, and after that we’ll head east to Kenne, New Hampshire before dropping back down into Massachusetts.
Tim Bullock, who has organized the walk on behalf of the Peace Pagoda, at each stop explains to those who have come to greet and feed us that the purpose of the walk is to attempt to bring a thawing of the frozen hearted people who have learned to live in our militarized culture in a perpetual state of fear and war. This war footing mentality has been blindly internalized by the white culture since the Europeans first came to this land. They quickly became accustomed to living in fear as they stole the land from the Indians. Our walk, coming in the winter and calling for an end to war, invites people to find the peace in their hearts that could come with the dawning of a new spring. | [

Since I can't stop making quilts, no adorable ladybug fabric was safe from me and my machine. I found these abstract ladybugs on reprodepot.com and mixed up the solid red ladybugs with the orange ladies and yellow dots. I had enough fabric to make two quilts for two little ladies. Charlotte in Maine is already enjoying her quilt and the other little lady should be presenting herself this week. I can't wait for action shots. | [

At least some good news this month for Leatherback Turtles. The California Fish and Game Commission voted to protect leatherback sea turtles as endangered under the state’s Endangered Species Act. In addition, the commission acted on the California Department of Fish and Wildlife recommendation, which is concerned by the turtles’ dramatic decline in the state's waters.
“California’s action will make an outsized difference for leatherback sea turtles, even in the face of global threats like the loss of nesting beaches,” said Catherine Kilduff, an attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity. “Protecting the state’s ocean to save leatherbacks benefits not only sea turtles, but whales and people too. The California Endangered Species Act will ensure that leatherbacks’ decline gets the attention it deserves during this global biodiversity crisis.”
Scientists estimate that leatherback sea turtles have declined in abundance off California by 5.6% annually over nearly 30 years. An estimated 50 Pacific leatherbacks now forage in California waters annually compared to 178 Pacific leatherbacks during the years 1990-2003. Whale-watching trips observed three leatherback sea turtles in August 2020 in Monterey Bay.
“Leatherbacks that forage for jellyfish off the California coast will now receive greater protection in our state from entanglement in fishing gear, giving them a better chance at survival,” said Todd Steiner, executive director of Turtle Island Restoration Network. “We are hopeful this action will put these ancient, gentle giants on a path to recovery.”
Protecting leatherbacks under the California Endangered Species Act would make them a state conservation priority. Despite the lack of regular monitoring of state fisheries, leatherback sea turtles have been tangled in commercial rock crab gear (in 2019) and Dungeness crab gear (in 2015 and 2016).
In June 2020, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife determined that increased protections may be warranted and began the status review. The action came in response to a petition from the Center for Biological Diversity and Turtle Island Restoration Network.
Last year, a federal review of leatherback sea turtle science concluded that West Pacific leatherbacks, one of seven distinct populations of leatherback sea turtles worldwide, face a high extinction risk. The National Marine Fisheries Service and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service found that all seven leatherback sea turtle populations remain endangered and denied a petition by the commercial fishing industry to relax some protections.
The California legislature has designated the Pacific leatherback sea turtle as the state marine reptile and October 15 as California’s official Pacific Leatherback Sea Turtle Conservation Day.

For part 2 of #RoadToMTAC2019, Connor Miller and Kirk Griffin join the podcast to discuss digital gaming. First, we talk about how digital gaming is so deeply embedded into the Con scene, especially MTAC. Then, we do something a little new to the show: We take turns pulling topics out of a hat. Some of those topics include our favorite console/PC games of 2018 and the future of gaming (i.e. VR/AR).
A few weeks ago, Nintendo had their big unveiling of their new console called the Switch. Although it seems pretty neat on surface level, once we looked a bit closer, we noticed a few things that could present some issues with the new gaming system. In today’s episode, we decided to chat about the Switch, and speculate whether the interesting new features could in fact be game-changing, or just a ploy for Nintendo to bait and “Switch” you once more.
If you’d like to get in touch with us, you can email us at email@example.com
